aspect Of design is plain and palpabe; and the in
ference follows very strongly and directly that the
Government of Louis Napoleon approved, II 1t did
not prompt, this OF diplomatic rudeness and
official effrontery.
This assumption in fact amounts 10 "A certainty
when taken in connexion with the answer given
by the French Cabinet after il had persed the OBJ
icctionable correspondence. That answer implied
a degree of naughty disdain more offensive by far
than the ambassadors conceited petulance. The
French Executive, il seems, could not trouble itself
about so small matter; it saw occasion for in
terference-there were faults both sdes-and in
this cavalier style ii dismissed the subject, chasing
our Government with its ambassador in the same
category of responsibility for unnecessary irrita,

II is in this virtual sanction of M Poussin's
course that the only point of serious nature is
be found Nor need that be a ground Of appre-
henson, unless it be really true that the exraordi-
deliberately entertained by the French Govern
ment II is difficult to believe this yet it is equal
y difficult to believe that the offensive demeanor of
M. Poussin was adopted by him and sanctioned by
his government, under the notion that the Ameri-
can people could be safely insulted. There never
was worse calculation than that of Louis Ma
poleon, If he reckoned upon acquisition Of
dit and ecat at home as the result of intimidation
here.
The tone of the Republic in reference to this mat
ter indicates apprehension Of hostile termina-
ton The public mind, however, will be curious
and soicitous TO note what is TO follow. The step
which our government has properly and prompt
y taken sufces for the present; and it remains for
France to give complexion and character to the
next stage in this singular business.
