CHANGES IN FRENcH EMBASSIES -
There have been some sweeping changes in
the representatives Of The French Govt rn-
ment in Foreign countries, as we see by the
"Moniteur." NJ, de Sariges. now the French
Minister in Sweden, comes to Washington,
ard NJ. Bois le-Compte The present minister,
is removed. Her Secretary of Legation.
VI. dc Bourholon, is transferred from Wash
ington, and made Minister to China. The
cause of NJ. Bots le- Complies removal is said
TO be want of devotion to the person of the
French President Besides he is only the
Foreign Representative of the Diplomacy of
February, lS4S.
M.lGauldrce Boileau is to be the Secreta
ry of Legation Mt Washington.
The French Government are giving their
Chinese Mission "A good deal of importance,
in consequence of the new state of things
in The East.
M. de Bourbolon is to go out in a ship
of war, and the personnel of the Legation is

PRKsIDENr FILLMoRE.--The universal
favor, says the Raleigh On. Cl Star, with
which the late message of the President has
met from all parties, except few of the en-
trcmes both North and South, demonstrates
most clearly that he takes Il truly national
and patriotic position. On such subjects as
have, for some time, aciated the country.
all party ties sink into oblivion, and all rood
men and patriots are willing TO support him
who is ready to maintain the inviolabili-v of
tho Constitution and the supremacy of the
laws The President, in The whole of this
trying contest has shown himself equal to
the emergency, ready, willing, and able 10
meet any responsibility imposed upon him
by virtue of his high office, and fully pre-
pared, however trying might he the duty. to
enforce prompt and ready obedience to law.
We take it, that he is II man fully impressed
with the high obligations which rest upon
him, 10 he faithful to his country and true to
her institutions, and, if we have not greatly
mistaken his disposition, he will not shrink
from any responsibility so long as he directs
the helm of State. Ills administration has
been marked by more practical ability, more
devotion to tie interests of the country, and
less yielding to party influences, than any
administration we have had for some time
We are SO fully warranted in saving this,
that WE cannot find censure even from his
political adversaries, they having the candor
and the ma2nanimity even to besow praise
on him for his patriotic efforts in behalf 81
:he Union. We like such President, we
can have great confidence in him. for we can
bu: be impressed that he is conscientious in
the discharge of his duties and faithful in
complying with his obligations to his country

An article from the Hartford Times, cop
led into our paper Of yesterday, relating 10
the Act Of Congress with reference to the
Tariff, is calculated 10 give false impress
sion TO the public, The article states that
the bill constitutes a very material altera-
ton of the tariff of 1876, by adding to the
value in the foreign port Of shipment, the
freight, and all commissions and other charg-
IS, except Insurance, as the true value in
the ports Of this county, upon which the
duties shall De collected The article then
goes on to state that this will give the Penn
sylvania iron.workers a protective duty oil
forty five per cent, instead of thirty per
cent, as now, &c.
Now by comparing the first section of this
bill, with the existing law, it will be seen
that it is an exact copy Of the acts of 1912
and 1916, so lar rs the particular point re
ferred to is concerned. The only change i.
substitution Ct the period Of expectation
to the United States for the words the
time when purchased rs indicating the
point Of iimc when the goods. are TO be val

E3r The following is the letter written by
Mr.. Webster to MIR Haven, which was re.
ferred to in the particular statements of the
charge against the Secretary of State, and
which was supposed to contain matter sus-
tanning that charge. The letter, il will be
seen, is very innocent one. The person
alluded to, whom ilr. w ebs,er could find
without going out of Massachusetts,, is un-
derstood to be the Hon Edward Evcrett:-
WAsHINGroN, Friday morning, !
July ~, 1850.
M Dear SW:-You will hear various
rumo,s respecting appointments to the Cab
met, but i,cne of them will deserve credit,
any further than they rest on general prob
ability. Nothing is decided, as yet. The
present Cabinet have all rendered their res
ignatons, but they will not DO answered ill
after the funeral.
The three important departments are State,
Treasury, Interior. have no doubt some
man known to be thoroughly sound on reve-
nue. matters will be appointed to the Treas
ury. As 10 the State Department, have
no doubt who will have it, although, if the
power were with me, think ] could find a
man, without going out of Massachusetts,, who
has talent enough but whether he is at this
moment, so fresh in the minds OF the people
that his appointment would strike the public
mind favorably, may be doubt.
Nobody can well be Secretary of State
who has not fortune, unless he be q bache-
lor. The Secretary of State is the head Of
the administration, and he must have d
house, sometimes. to receive guests in. lie
is OF course necessarily in daily communca,
ton with the diplomatic corps, which be-
lleve is twice as numerous now as i, was
twenty years ago.
My dear sir, you zee the spirit of good
will which is manilesiing itself here. Thi.
is the golden opportunity, be assured.
he opposition gentlemen are determined
all the conservative part of them at least tc
give the administration fair play. MIR. Fill
more is well mentioned, and discreet. He
will meet with annoyances from the rather
overlooking spirit of a certain qndrter, but
hope he will stand stiff. II he is successful
in forming his administration, | verify believe
prospect is before us for a better state o
things Than we have enjoyed for twent,
years. Yours, truly.
