American circles in Paris that this Spanish
Duke (who, it will be remembered, fought the
duel with young soule) persuaded his brother
in.law, Louis Napoleon, to essay his game Of
the exclusion Of Mr. Soule from France; az.
surfing him that the Spanish Government were
prepared to reject our minister on his return,
if he q. NJ would thus take the initiative,
as it were.
He furthermore assured Louis Napoleon that
the Fr ench Minister in London had obtained
satisfactory evidence of his (Mr. Soule's) COM
plicity in the revolutionary intrigues of Kos
suth, Sanders, Mazzini, and their crazy and
mischievous confreres. D'Alba got this false
impression from the pseudo American sources
to which we refer, who hate Mr. Soule only
because he is the appointee of an American
Chief Magistrate who is not to be used by
them to the disgrace of the nationality with
which they would illegally surround them
selves in Europe, only to subssrve their pride.
On inquiry, after Mr.. Mason had made his
point for the withdrawal of the obnoxious
order, Louis Napoleon found that D'Alba had
been falsely informed by his pseudo-American
co-conspirators as to the conduct of Mr. Soule,
and that SUCH was the opinion of his Minister
in London, after due Investigation. He also,
in all probability, learned that he had been
deceived as to the disposition of the Spanish
Government to treat MIR. Soule with indignity;
for it seems to be understood in foreign circles
here that the Spanish authorities threw cold
water on the suggestion made to them through
D'Alba, to follow Louis Napoleon's example
in this matter.
By the by, we are satisfied that great and
most impudent efforts soere made to compro-
mise Mr.. Soule in the schemes of the crack
Drained charlatans in London who have set
themselves up as revolutionizers of Europe
and also that each and every one of these ef-
forts proved abortive, Notwithstanding Mr..
Soule's we'll known sympathies with the cause
Of civil liberty in Europe According to in
formation from both London and Paris on
which we have every reason to rely with i'm
plicit confidence, he neither did nor said any
thing that could by the remotest possibility
involve him in any act in connection with the
domestic affairs of any European country, un-
becoming in a representative of the United
States abroad. 1t is judged here that by some
as yet undiscovered surreptitious means, Kos
suth & Co.'s revolutionary committee have
managed to impress upon the public mind of
Europe, the idea that they had successfully in
volved the Government of the United States
in their intrigues.
This impression, we take it for granted,
from our knowledge of the character of the
gentleman now responsible for the proper con-
duct of our public affairs, had only to be real
ICED in Washington, to insure such instructions,
or rather the return of such information from
this point, as will put upon their guard all of
our public functionaries upon whom these
pestiferous charlatans are laboring so zeal
ously and with such mendacity to impose.
The great leading point in the foreign policy
Of this Government has been, since its foun.
dation, that it is by no means the province of
the United States to interfere in the affairs of
any other country or countries in which we
may not have direct, palpable, and positive
interest This has been cur country's safe
guard-one of the main springs Of our sue
cessful progress to the point at which we find
ourselves, as nation. The public need enter
tain no apprehension that any administration
of the American Government will, in our
before their eyes. In troublesome times like
the present, it is by no means remarkable that
impudent charlatans succeed for the moment
in creating the impression that they have the
countenance of this or that functionary of diff
ferent Governments for their schemes, In
which such functionaries have not rightfuly
or legally the slightest lot or part. It, how
ever, happily always turns out that as soon
as their intrigues are discovered, they are
stripped of the cloak of false representations
under which they seek to prosecute their
ends.
