Our Foreign Relations The French Minister.

Z
WASHINGTON, June 3.-Seyeral days ago
Count Sartiges received through the Post Of
fee a newspaper containing a letter from 4
Washington correspondent, treating of the set
tied antipathy of foreign Governments towards
the United States, as now maintained by the
conduct of the foreign Representatives in their
intercourse with society and our public men,
and which letter was superinduced by the al
ledged indecent and insulting language against
our Government, and especially against the
Secretary Of State, at dinner recently given
by Count Sartiges. The envelope enclosing
the newspaper in question, bore the seal Of the
State department.
On Saturday Count Sartiges called on Mr..
Marcy, Indignantly complaining of the insult,
and demanded that its suspected author be
banishcd, intimating that in the event of fail
ure to do this, he would demand his passports.
Mr.. Marcy, of course, disavowed all knowledge
or responsibility concerning the letter, and
expressed regret that anything had happened
to occasion offence. Here was dilemma, but
Count Sartiges was apparently satisfied, and
the Secretary released from his unpleasant po-
siti0n, by the author, who was a Government
employee, but who did not send the letter to
Count Sartiges, promptly reSiguing his office.
The Russian Minister, to-day, gave picnic
entertainment at Arlington Springs, to his dip
lomatc associates, and others.

AFFAIRS AT HOME.

CLEARfIELD DBoROuGH.-StrollinE about town
a few days since, we incidentally commenced
counting the number of stores, shops. &c,
and found that there were eight dry goods
stores, one drug store, two book and station
cry stores, FIVE tailoring establishments, five
boot and shoe shops, three saddle and harness
shops, three cabinet and cbair-making estab-
lishments, one foundry, four wagon-makers'
shops, two printing offices, one crockery, one
tin-ware mandatory and stove depot, four
blacksmith's shops, one clock and wateh-ma-
ker, one livery stable, and three hotels. There
may be some more establishments which We
failed to observe. We have residing in the
town two preachers, though there are five chur-
ches here, four physicians, one dentist, and
nine lawyers in active practice. We know of
no way in which these several branches of
industry can be made to extend their business
operations more readily than by informing the
public at large of what is done, and manuiac-
tured, and where. And how can this be done
more easily than by system of liberal adver-
tisingl newspaper is the medium which
has conducted many man to fortune, and
many worthy fellow has failed by neglecting

cal vehicle of carrying himself into notoriety
