Minister Mason 10 Secretary Marcy
mo. 81 LEGATION UNITED STATES,
PARIS October 80 1854.
SIR An incident of very grave import has transpired.
la my No 80 communicated the intelligence that
Mr. Soule United States minister to Spain had been pro-
hbited by alleged orders of the Empeors government
from entering France
That might, without delay ascertain the facts OF this
extraordinary and unusual proceeding sent Mr. Patt
secretary of this legation to Dover 10 communicate with
Mr. Soue He left Paris in the evening of the 25th and
his arrival finding that Mr. Soule had left Dover he pro-
ceeded to London where he had interview with that
gentleman The order orbidding his entering France
wholly unknown to Mr.. Soule, and he assures me
that neither by deed by words, uttered or written,
had he afforded shadow ofexcuse for the wanton
which in violation of his rights citizen Of the North
American republic and ofhs privileges OF its accred
tied minister's has nterdcted TO him passage through
France his way back to Madrid
lost time after the return of Mr. Patt in addressing
the Minister Of Foreign Affairs under date OF the 26th
instant communication, of which send you copy. 1t
was the Foreign Office the 28th and have not
yet received an answer.
is impossible not to regard this humilating ndignity
as deeply Injurious when it is remembered that Mr. Sonle
acting under your orders has recently spent than
two weeks in Paris and while soournng here neither he
nor received any ntmaton that his presence object
ed 10 by the French government
Seeing adequate to justify untriendy feeling
towards the United States cannot bnt hope that the
rench government finding that it has acted on erroneous
information, will at redress this grievous wrong.
If in this disappointed earnest AS have been since
have represented country at this court TO cultivate
the most cordial relations of amy between the
tries consider this incident of such grave import

ty to terminate my mission by demanding my passports

Biz TO SUPPRESS GAMBLING.-he have
received, and fugitively read, the Bill to
Suppress Gambling" introduced into the As
sem5ly of this State by Mr.. O'Neil. 1t is
needless to say we approve its main features.
He, like all other good men, strikes at the
root of a very great evil, which spreads much
Of desolatien over this fair land. Gambling,
in this country, is a Bohan CTpas which
spreads blighting influence over the pros
poets Of many who, otherwise, would fulfil
the wise laws Of human existence and become
useful citizens. II, as alcoholic fluids have
done, has numbered its Hct;ms-not even
sparing those upon when Nature has been
most lavish in the bestowal Of her gifts. Aside
from its immoral tendencies-and, as a mat
ter of policy, it is foolish in the extreme The
revenue which would accrue to the treasury
of the State from its adjustment, is as a
bucket Of water to the whole of the ife-givng
fluid which goes to fill the streams and chan
nels that course and meander through It's
boundaries Personally, weare unacquainted
with Mr.. 0'neill, but have been informed that
he possesses the moral courage and indeiati-
gable energies to defend it against all opposi-
tiOn and secure its enactment. We say God
speed him in his laudabe purpose; but we
opinc he will find it a more difficult underta-
king than in his honest enthusiasm he ina
gines. We trust that the representatives from
this county viii furnish him all tie aid he
may ask. They may remain in no doubt as
to how their constituents stand upon the sub
ject-they are with Mr. O'Neill.
