correspondinely adopted-that, moreover, he was

II is the Characteristic Of sluggish bodies that
they are quiet when they should be in activity and
are foil Of excitement when it would be bet
ter to be in repose. Mr.. Mason, said to be the
gentles; and most retiring OF human beings delight
ing IN the otfum cum dignstats, has ~ the repues
tion of being, like marsbal Of France, in buckram
and amor, ready to do battle for the honor o.
the United States. The prevailing ssntinent
ard also impolitic-.hat this is not the time
to be over sensitive with France, nor that
the present chief magistrate is exactly the party
to make unmeaDing demonstrations tO-thak
it would be wise in dipiomatiss, as in private ind
yiduas, to take the readiag the French government
has given to this circumstance-to 6ivest il Of IL
political character, and view it simply as private
affair between the French Emperor as Louis Nape-
leon and NJ. Soul6, very fooshly made by Mr..
Marcy Spanish Ambassador.
gave you in my last an article extracted from
the Consfifufionne on this subject snd it is said TO-
day that the ASSURANCES viii b will reach your 60
veInment will be to the same feet No quarrel ID
desired; on the contrary, France has many reasons
for wishing to avoid just now, any new rupture; but
the Emperor Of tie French, backed by an alliance
more closely cement, If they fail to weaken, il deter
mined it is ssi6 to take the Crom eelian line whes
ever there is doubt. II is tor America to consider
whether ber polics s sufficiently ripe, that blum
6erir 2 zealot like Mr. SoulG, and mere machine
like Mr.. Mason, are worthy Of hurryipg II 10 con-
summation
WHAT have written, have written the senti-
ments expressed have nethug to do with myself,
but such as ae rife IN the great sources OF pub
lie opinion here, French as well as American.
There is in unpls asaut feeiug abroad, which, the
sooner Il is che X, the better it is to be hoped
that the Pierca administration will not fail to dis
play Oh this occasion that wise and well directed
energy which, while IL upho!0s the honor Of .
country yields ,thing to passion or false populari
ty, and ia more inteni on the permanent public
welfare than It's own peculiar idiosyncracy.
The letters which receive from Spain are OF .
very uDsatisfactory description. The Queen and
Esparer0 don't bic il, and the meeting OF the Cor
O'DcDnell IL busy making loyalist party In oppo-
on 10 the Duke OF vcsors; he greatly indig can't
that SeTyaLos speech, OF which gave you extract
In mylast should be passed over, even till the a.
sembing Of the Spanish parliament; and IL has not
been without shf most earnest pcrsuasi0ns from his
friends, that he has consented to hold on till thak
great event takes place. From all accounts Spain
does not need the interference Of Mr.. 6oule or a
any such parsonage. There is an old adage about 3
deg having rope enough; snd II Spain be let alone,
ano Continental difficulties go on increasing, Cuha
will belong to America without any overzealous
exertion.
The govei nment published this morning some par
tculars of the great siege which is now going On,
dated October 81, simply confirming the short acr
count l gave you in my last. Every thing seems
favorably for the allies. Admiral Hamelin had
one Of his four aides de camp shot, and
narrowly es sped himself The French had A
accident to one Of the powder @ magazines, and tho
bled about Fort Quarantine, as to interfere with
General Canrobert's operations. But while tho
destruction to lite bid fair to be awful, the fate of
CT - ~lsf.. r. "a
served manner in which information is given in both
England and France is attributed to the terrible car
mage which has taken place.
And, talking Of carnage, 1t is right to tell you
that France Ia ringing from end to end with tho
dreadful details furnished by the HERALD Of the
awful affair Of the Arctic. America would not fail
to- be gratifed, could she express It, by the unaf
fected sympathy viii h is everywhere exhibited, and
the JOY that was shown at the final escape Of
Capt. Luce. As ] said BEFORE there are OCCASIONS
when all Is forgotten but human brotherhood, and
the glorious display Of feeling which has beeh az
hbited at New York are not less participated n in
France. = ,.srs,
