tnANCE.-The statement that during the
late visit OF the Emperor to the muster of ar
hllery, an attempt was made upon his life, is
reiterated and the fact that the English jour-
nails containing any reference to this matter,

The Madrid correspondent of the London
Times says, negotiations on the Mexican ques-
ton were suspended until the arrival Of the

ment inflicted on the dehnquents, this will
give favorable impulse to the Interior march
of the question. But if the expected news

qulrements of the Spanish cabinet. 1t is not
improbable that Senior Lafaragua, unless Lord
Howden and the Marquis de Turgot are able

him officially. In this case hostilities may be
expected. 1t is to be feared that the Mexican
