NEW YORK, Feb. 26.-M. Gaillardet writes 10
the Courier des Etats Unis from Paris, February
Sth, as follows:
"A friend Of General Stevenson, Of South Caro-
lima, assures me that that gentleman had had an
audience Of the Emperor, who had listened in a
friendly manner TO his arguments In favor Of the
new Confederacy Of the Slave States
.'Some Of the provincial journals add that, In
order to secure the alliance Of Napoleon Ill. the
Southern seceders had offered to put bis cousin,
Jerome Bonaparte, Of Baltimore, at the head Of
their Confederacy.n
This last paragraph shows the absurdity Of all
these rumors about France and the South.

tillefy under Maj. Haskins, stationed on street
north Capitol HILL shot one of bis comrades dead
with musket, under the folio y ing circumstances
Ii seems that Foley had been out on leave Of alb
sence and had got very drunk during the day. for
which offence he had been placed in confinement
Ry the direction Of Maj. hastins his hands wer ,
tied, and he was placed in vacant room by him
self A gun and cartridge box had been acct
dentaly left In thisroom unknown to the corporal,
and Foley had been there but few minutes when
he succeeded In untying his hands, and taking the
musket proceeded TO load 1t. Corporal Murphy,
under whose charge he was, heard the noise and
sprang to the door to get possession of the weapon
Just a. he pushed the door open Foley had finished
loading II, and Murphy drawing back, attempted
door wide open, and presenting the musket to
Murphy's breast, discharged It, the ball passing
entirely through the body of the unfortunate cor
Rorai, and through the coat sleeve Of private r.
H. Langdon, the sentry then on duty. Murphy
sprang into the air, crying, sob, my God am
killed and fell dead at the feet Of his mu rderer
The report Of the musket brought the men to the
charged upon him furously with the musket
After severe struggle he succeeded In Wrestling
the weapon from Foiey's hands, and the desperate
fellow was placed under strict guard until the ar.

The officer took him in custody and convened
him to the Central Guard house, where the cir
cumstances were examined into by Justice Clark,

Foley is about 25 years old, and fine looking
soldier, and is said to be man of amiable dispo-
sition when sober. At the Guard house he be.
trayed no feelings Of remorse but stated that the
murdered Corporal had abused him, tied his
hands, and otherwise treated him with what he
considered excessive severity.
