The public mind has been recently much
exercised 20 ascertain the meaning Of the
phrase armed neutrality as employed by
politicians. in the various Sites. in the pres
ens junctnre. hit IS employed 70 signify a
right to assume any unconstitutional indie.
pendence Of the General covernmens-any
assumed privilege to refuse 10 execute its
laws, or 70 furnish assistance TO enforce their
execution. then il Is but another form Of ex-
preston for treason. The necessity that
neutral State Of this Union-granting the
possibility that a State can he aeafrel-
should be armed l. not apparent. The adso-
Gates of this policy assert as a reason for arm
ing that il shall be done for defense De.
Tense against whom we may ask Certainly
not against the General Government IL the
State remains loyal there can be no need of
or excuse for this. Not against the Southern
Confederaey surely. for mo State Is foolish
enough to suppose that it can need to defend
its borders from ineursions, from its own re
sources, 50 long as il remains nthe Union.
When viewed in the light Of recent e, ents
and with knowledge OF the men who use the
term. il may be safely stated that armed
neutrality means nothing more or less than
assuming a preparatory attitude for secession
IL IS a proposition that the government shall
give hostile State time to arm itself, and
shall furnish il with weapons and munitions
Of war. under a false belief that they will be
properly and constitutionally used, when the
object IS to turn them against the govern
ment and to destroy IT, Armed neutrality is
bur falsehood to disguise hostility TO the
government 1t signifies n chrysalis which
is soon TO develop into fully matured seces
sion. No LOYAL. Union loving State. which
reveres the Constitution and laws Of the land,
can for moment think OF any such singular
and unnatural relation as that implied by
bona fids armed neutrality Ii is but spe
cious dodge Of secessienists. IL means moth
ing friendly TO the Republic or the Constitu
ton, and cannot for a moment DC entertained
By any true friend OF the Union. People,
therefore. that advocate armed neutrality

Official Correspondence between the
American Minister to France and
the French Secretary on Foreign
Affairs.

WASHINGTON, Nav 5-The State Depart.
ment has furnished the Press with the official
correspondence between Ministers Faulkner
and Thouvenal on American alta rs Mr.
Faulkner informed the French Minister that
the President entertained full confidence OF
speedy restoration of the harmony and unity
OF the Government; that events might intro
duee temporary inconyenence'to the French
subjects. but that all injury should be indem-
nified; that the President thought it not impro-
bablc that an appeal might be made TO foreign
Governments. by the Confedera:es. for the
recognition of their independence. When
such an appeal is made il shall be opposed by
tue Ministers who may represent the United
States.
Mr. Faulkner said the only request he had
to make was that no proposition recognizing
the dissolution of the Union should be consid
cred by France till the arrival of the new
minister, who would be fully instructed
NJ. Thouvenal replied that no application
was yet made. The French Government
never acted hastily on such questions. tie
assured Mr.. Faulkner that no precipitate ac-
ton would be taken on the subject by the
Emperor. Tie said il was the established
usage TO recognize dc tacto governments when
/ proper case Is made out.
q
| thought that force would not be used, and the
only solution was a modification of the Con
stitution OF pesceable acquiescence in the
claim of separate sovereignty NJ. Thouve-
nal thought the employment OF force unwise.
In the Secretary Of States instructions TO
Minister Dayton, he i TO consider the instruc-
tons TO the former Minister by the President
as unchangeable notwithstanding any opin-
/ ion expressed or recorded by his predecessor.
! to assure NJ. Thouvenal that no difference of
opinion exists between the President and his
| Cabinet-that the path Is plainly marked out
I by stern necessity, and that not at the hands
of this Administration is the Government to
| end.
Frances assurance not 10 take any hasty
steps, is considered satisfactory, although at
tended by reservations. Mr.. Seward SAYS,
in reply to Mr.. Faulkner's answer that force
would not be used, &C: The time when
these questions had any pertinency has passed
Insurgents, with deadly war, have tried 10
| compel the Government TO recognize the dis
membernrent of the Union. We have acce1-
ted this civil war az an inevitable necessity
| The Constitutional remedies are still open "a
the insurgents. and will remain so. You car
not be too decided in making an answer 70
the French Government that no idea does OF
will exist OF suffering a dissolution Of the
Union to take place ia any war, peaceably OF
forciby,
Ii has never entered the mind of any Candid
statesman here, and il is high time it be dis
missed by European statesmen,
