THE CAMBRIA's NEWS.
The following is Paris correspondence letter,
dated yesterday, p. M:
Though the resolution of which Lord Stanley
has given notice has only direct reference 10 the
affair as between Greece and England, and that
even II the difference with France were settled that
resolution would not be rendered superfuous, yet
II 10 evident that the announcement vi complete
arrangement between the British and French
governments would produce a favorable effect
TO the result Of that debate IL is, however, 10
be feared that such announcement cannot be made.
Dispatches were received here the night before last
from Lord Palmcrston which stated that the Eng
lish government would accept the convention VI
London, and consider all that had taken place ut
Athens as null and void, leaving Of course 10 the
Greeks To make their own selection. The same de-
spatches that communicated this rather tardy de-
cision on the part OF Lord Palmerston, also ex-
pressed the utmost desire on the part OF his govern
ment that an immediate answer should be given
by General Lahitte. Ii is not improbable that the
anxiety expressed was with the object OF neutral
izng the effect anticipated from the debate on
Lord Stanley's motion. But no answer has, up to
the hour ] write, been given by General Lahiite,
nor, so far as can learn, Is II likely that any an
swer will be given until after the debate.
"The government here seem TO think that as Lord
Painerston has taken his own time for deciding on
the question OF the convention. and that he appears
to suit his own convenience in choosing the period
Tor it, they also have right 10 employ certain
time celebrating, and consult their convenience
i'll deciding ON the acceptance OF his ordsmp's hnal
propositions.
'.'rhe dispatches arrived, as have already said,
the night before last; and understand that an ap
plication was made yesterday morning for reply.
The application was not acted upon. Another was,
believe, made last night, and again this morning,
but, as learn, without effect; nor have any rea
TO believe that General Lahitte will swcrve
from his purpose Of deferrng his reply until after
Friday. Whether this intention be deserving OF
appreciation or otherwise know not, but SUCH am
assured, is the fact As TO the reply that will be
made to Lord Pancrston's proposal, ii is scarcely
to be doubted that it will be favorable, unless in
deed some new c0nhetemps, some new indiscreton
occur To comphcate the affair. II ia to be hoped
that all parties will be actuated by good faith and
a sincere desire for reconciliation and that nothing
will occur to prevent General Lahtte from an
nouncing his acceptance Of the proposals made for
the execution OF the London convention. In such
case of course, French ambassador would pro-
coed forthwith to London. Nj. Drouyn dc Lhuys
would not have personally any objection to return
to his post; but this point nothing positive can
be said, Oh account of the reported retirement OF
General Lahitte from the Foreign Office after the
settlement of the pending question, and his trans
fer to some other more congenial department.
at is no doubt highly honorable for man to dc
all he to repair his faults, but 1t is pity that
what ID now proposed to be done was not done In
the commencement The only party to whom ser
vice has been rendered by the refusal of repatriation
to M. Drouyn de Lhuys Is the French govern
ment.
81 stated yesterday that NJ Theirs had contem-
plated visit to London. That intention, however
ID, after good deal o deliberations abandoned for
the present 1t was only last night that M. Theirs
decided on not leaving Paris-at least not leaving
it for England.
81 regret to say that though Count Mole is some
what BETTER yet the state of his health at no period
very robust, continues To excite uneasness amongst
his friends The Count is still confined to his apart
mcnt, though not TO his bed.
1.-The EUenement states that the ministers have re-
solved regard the bill introduced by the Minister
of Finance for increasing the allowance Of the Pre-
sident of the Republic a cabinet question, and to
retire altogether if be rejected am not aware
that decision OF the kind has been formally ar
rived at by the minister's but there is doubt that
the rejection Of the measure would be a serious
check. II might even be more serious than mere
ministerial check. The retirement of the present
ministers, and the choice Of new ones, would not
afford any remedy to the position of the President
of the Republic; that position must continue the
same, and the question is whether any new set oil
ministers would succeed in obtaining what may be
refused 10 the present.
al am aware Of many circumstances which prove
beyond question that something must be done, I'M
less desire exists anywhere that not the ministers
but the President himself should resign. Though
can scarcely believe that the bill will be thrown
out vet il is evident that there exist msgivings in
the minds OF several persons who fear division oil
the majority As TO what the Mountain White az
well Red-extreme Legitinists as well as ex-
treme Repubcans-will do, there can be enter
tanned no doubt; but j have this morning heard
OF the moderate Legtimist party may initiate their
example.
