The Old world.


By the arrival Of the Baltic, at New York
on the 10TH we learn that serious misun,lr
standing has arisen between the English and
Fiench government The primary cause OF
this difficulty, is the perfect freedom with
which tho English press cri,icise and condemn
the conduct of the French government. The
Mon icur, the official organ Of the Emperor,
notices those attacks in the following ambigu-
Gus, but threatening manner:

I'd under an anonymous mask and allow no other
answer than contempt. We understand the

in England. ami in thus noticing its errors we
coniinc ourselves to appealing To the good sense
and good hath of the English people, to warn
them against Il system which, by destroying
contihnce between the two governments

This ia looked upon, owing 10 the official
character Of the ioaisur. not merely rs the

inciics with the Monitetus sentiments The
r,alc, and Post, it will be remembered, are the
procssel organs Of the government.
The following is the conclusion OF the 1imc,'
to the Momfeur:
