The French Princes, etc,
The Paris correspondent of the New York
Times, under date of October IL, writes as
follows:
The Southern Commissioners, Messrs.
Yapcey and Rost, are now at Paris, and
speak with perfect confidence of the speedy
recognition of the Southern Confederscy.
According to their testimony, the Cabinets
of London and Paris are now satisfied that
sooner OF later they must yield to the neces.
stiles of the case, and that they are already
deba ting the terms upon which the recogni-
tion is to be made. The negotiation has
arrived at that period in its progress where
it is no longer question of time, 80 much
as one of form.
The time Mr. Yancey limits to sixty days.
So sure indeed ia he ofthe speedy recognition
that he has not only advised his friends in
the cotton trade in England to sell at once
at the present advanced price, but he has
also ordered the sale of his own large stock
now in warehouse at Liverpool. AS rea-
son for this extraordinary faith, the Southern
agents speak cautiously of views expressed
by governmental people in England and
France, and boldly of the aspect of affairs at
home, as clearly pointing to that result.
The number of that class of Americans,
whether from the North or South, who wish
to remain neutral during the war, is increas-
ing at Paris, as we'll as that other class who
dare not go home for fear of being arrested.
Somr Southern gentlemen are amusing them
selves speculating in cotton, and one of these
has realized in two months profit of thirty
thousand dollars. The operations we're made
in England.
The French press, 30 far as have seen, has
not INDUCED in any extended comments,
after the first notice, on the enlistment OF
the Orleans Princes in the American army.
| 1t is one of those questions requiring such
delicate handling that each waits for the
other to commence the discussion. There is
reason TO believe, however, that the Emperor
is not displeased with the movement, for,
although the enmity between the two fami.
lies still exists, the young Princes are still
FreDchmen, the cause in which they are en-
gagged is totally foreign to auy dynastic ques-
tion in France, and thus the pride of every
Frenchman will be engaged in their good
conduct and success.
Whenever, during the italian campaign OF
two years ago, the Duke de Chartres had oc-
cssion TO come into contact with the officers
Of the French army, of whatever grade, the
utmost cordially prevailed, and the young
officer was always treated as became his
social rank. Moreover, the chances of the
Count de Paris to the throne of France are
so limited that every thing like i'll will on
the part Of the Emperor when the event is
purely foreign question, must be totally
dissrmed.
The congregation of the Southern Com
missiOners at Paris concurrently with the
arrival home of the Prince Napoleon would
seem to imply that these gentlemen sntici-
pate some acliOn on the part of the Govern
ment at once But if my sources of informs-
tion are correct, the Prince has already ad.
Vised the Emperor by letter TO maintain q
strict neutrality, and that his advice now
will not differ from that which he wrote
from America.
