According to the Courier du Canada, the
"tather OF Gen. Beauregard, commander
OF the Southern army, was Canadian. His
name was Pierre Toutan, and he emigrated to
New Orleans, from Batiscan, in the District Of
Three Rivers. At New Orleans he made q fo,.
tune, and rapidly acquired considerable in.
nuence among the French population Of Lou.
1s1ana. AS reward for his political services,
he obtained for his son an admission as cadet
IN the Military Academy at West Point. The
son figures in the books under the name Of
Pierre G. Toutan. In the meantime he pnr.
chased an eatate near New Orleans, which he
called Beauregard. When his son obtained t,is
commission as an officer in the army, he cast
aside the humble name Of Toutsn, adopted the
more aristocratfc one Of de Beauregard, and
thencefoEth subscribed himself tPierre Ton,
tan de Beauregard."

Correspondence Of the N. z. Evening post1
ST. PETEasBuRa, July Is, 1851.
The new American Minister to the Court of
st. Petersburg, Cas8fus N. Clay. had his first
ot1iclal interview with the Czsr an Sunday. tbs
l4tni and presented his own letter Of eredence.
together With that Of recall Of MI. Appiet,n
the late Minister. In view of the critical con.
dltion Of affairs In the United States. The
attentions paid Mr. Clay on this occas;on
Pe5e p;; peculiarly gratifying. Though Minister
rank as high; as an Ambassador iii. ca,
was received with all the honors and :ceranfgs.
mes awarded to the latter officials, The nra,
sebtalon took place st Peterhof. the surnmer
residence Of the Czars, and the United States
minister and bis suite found the Emperor's
carnage aWa1tlng them at the railroad station:
fringe Gortschakof, the. Russian Minister Of
Eore1gn AftairB (and brother Of the eminent
General recently deeeased,) came from 81:
petersburg expressly to present Nj. Clay IL
the emperor, instead Of leaving that duty to
the Master Of Ceremonies, 81 usual, Alexan.
Ger u; received the representative Of the
IN gnteo s6ates at private audience, and from
ne g1athcation the latter has expressed Yith
MS interview, have every reason to believe
Ihat the Emperor appreciates the difference
DetWeen rebellion and revolution, and aWards
hls hearfiest sympathies to the Federal Gov
eminent. Nj. Clay had quite a proIonred
tAtEl s1tN H10 tae emperor, and explained
to him the true condition Of affairs At home.
Of which, by the way, as above intimated, the
Russian monarch appeared to have 7ery fair
IDEA. Mr. Clay has forwarded his dispatche hes
to Washington, where they will doubtless be
received with interest. ~
Ihe Emperor then accompanied the Minis
ter from the private audience chamber. and
was introduced to the Secretary OF legation
and attaches, with whom he held brief con.
Yersaflon, speaking quite intelligible English,
Re alluded to the name Of Clay, and spoke Of
Henry Clay, with whose reputation and ser.
vices ne seemed quite familiar.
After the presentation, the American Minis-
ter and his suite were driven in Imperial car

Other Russian diplomats, includ ng Prince
Gortachakoff, have EXPRESSED themselves in
terms OF warm friendship as regards our Gov
eminent; ; and there is every reason to believe
that the more Intelligent Russians of ali class
es ahare in the s3mpathies Of their rulers.

about the representatives who, 1t was alleged.

the effect that after slavery had been abol-
asaed ms New England and the Eastern

New England are living On the proceeds
Of the sales at this time. This slander vcas
copied and endorsed by the tory sheets in
the North, who were willing to libel their

chance toserve the slave owners. The a.
legation was particularly :1evelled at New
York and Connecticut The former had
more Slaves at one time than any Of the

more than any other New England State
