PREsIpRNT REORGANIZATION OF CONSPIRACY
OF THE WESTERN POWERS AGAINST THE UHIrgD
sTATEs--ATTITuDE OF THE UNITED STATES.
WASHINGTON, March 2, 1855.
Our foreign relations are hourly becoming matters Of
difficulty with the administration. After the adjourn.
nen night before last in the Senate Senators Mason,
Cas, and Douglas drove up TO the White Houie, from
special invitation sent in the morning through Senator
Mason. Our present relations with majority Of the
European governments made necessary this meeting.
Governor Mar alone Of the Cabinet was present. An
important revelation ives made the President placed
before The gentlemen assembled autograph Letter re-
ceired by the ldst arrival Europe bearing the sig
nature Of The Emperor Of Russia This letter
panied by official despatch from his Minister on Fo-
reign Affairs, communicating TO the United States ssce-
tary OF State particulars Of organization against
this country, advised and encouraged by England snd
France Extracts from letters sent 70 the home govern
nenS by Russian secret emp y6s distributed through
DOT the capitals 81 Europe proving the above statement
given; and, although these secret agents wholly
ignorant OF the cxtence OF any but Themselves their
taements are marked by an extraordinary accuracy Ia
point Of facts and dates. TO snow friendship and inte-
rest in the of the United States is the purprt
of the Emperors letter. which fact is stl further made
evident in he communication OF the Minister.
The communication proceeds show that these inter-
views had audiences given by Louis Napoleon,
In London Lord Aberdeen late Minister,
received the buii0ess, official vsts from the
French, Spanish and Austrian representatives. This
business YVES the relation OF those Powers with the
United Staes protfacted diplomatic policy was re-
ded TO Spain all important to be followed out
with the United states while France and England would
increase and divide their strength in su.h manner,
In South America and the United States, not
to excite suspicion ALARM The result of these de-
beratons mark determined hostility to this country,
which s only awaiting opportunity to show itself
acts Of agee sson and violence, which little
prepared al this moment to meet. have bs-
have that Austria, notwithstanding her assaran .es to
the Ales is secretly the friend Of Russia and /. may
not hereafter be difficult TO prove that it is through this
power that Russia obtained the Information in part
communicated to our government.
The President anxious 70 adopt proper course on
the Information received, which he suggested should be
preceded by message to Congress- stating particulars,
without naming his authority, and thus obtain ap-
preparation Of millions OF dollars. This suggestion
received with disavor as il would certainly create
gensral alarm Throughout. the country. II appro-
priation Of money should be deemed necessary could
be obtained without sounding the alarm reasoned by
the President. Independent Of the value in this crisis
of Senator Douglas opinions and advice it is well known
that he entertans the most friendly feelings the Rus
sian monarch and not like Of his colleagues in the
fenate who believe him deprived Of every human virtue
In this decision Marcy found himself aud his views fully
supported and while strict vigilance will be observed
by government upon the movements of England and
France a becoming discretion will be observed the
policy to pursue.
How marked the coincidence that the receipt of the
Emperors letter ard the proaer OF friendly mediation
on the part Of England should have by tho same
vessel and have been received at the Same time by
government.
