The report which ssnt yoa iast week il -.
gard 20 mediation, report which created good
deal q alarm hese among Americans has been
singularly modified sincs By The oGlciAl declara-
lions which this very report called out The
difference, indeed, is g great, that vhersss .
weekIago nearly everybody believed rsoogni-
ton Of the South among the probable thinga to.
day no one believes even mediation among the
possible things. This change il due to the vari-
Gus Official declarations made in England on the
subject during the week, and che statement Of
the olhcial journal Of st. Petersburg. In these
declarations it is true, they only deny the inten-
ton Of recognition, and say nothing about medi.
alton. Lord John Russell indeed, admits that
there has been An intimate correspondence be-
tween his Government and that Of France on the
subject OF the American war, and that there 10 .
perfect understanding between them on the sub
ject. But he leaves the nature of this under.
standing to conjecture. Under any circumstan-
ces. all the evidence goes to show that there is
no Immediate danger of an official interveutiop
Of any kind. and that sufiices for the moment
VIEWS OF TIE sICRsH PRESS.
The Secession press ct Paris, which processes
to show great indignation at this course of Eng.
land, pretends that the explsnation lies i, t6e
fact that in England it is believed that the strug.
gle in the United States is over; that the North
s unable to raise the recruits necessary to carry
on the war, and the best way to bring it 10 .
close and render Intervention unnecessary, is to
refrain from Intervention. 90 q not to rouse up
or to arrest in its decline the dying patriotism Of
the North! 4. x p4rg N, - s 81 80 . Z
We have reason to believe that there il but
one member of the French Cabinet who is work.
ing in the interest of the Southern Confederaey.
and that this gentleman's zeal is not approved by
other members of the Cabinet A successful ef.
fort vas in fact made lstely to moderate the
zeal Of the Minister Of the Interior, the Minister
in question, who, unfortunately, has charge Of
the press, and since then the tone of the Sc
session writer's has been modified.
VITAL QUESTIONS AT HOME.
But new and important events Of another
character are likely soon to divert the attention
Of the French Government from the United
States, and tomorrow grand Council Of Hinis.

fort and appears to be rapidly swelling into
reality; the alliance just formed between Swe-
den, Norway and Denmark; threatening condi-
ton of things in Russia, and finally the exclusive
affairs of France in regard to the various wars
on hand-Mexieo, China and Cochin China-all
these are enough to occupy the grand council
Of St. Cloud, without meddling in the interior
| affairs of the United States.
MOVEMENTS OF GARIBALDI.
| In regard to the movements of Garabaldi
there are three opinions, one of which is that
the movement is due to a collision between the
Governments of France and Italy, Intended to
satisfy the clericals at Rome and elsewhere
that there is no longer probability Of main
tanning the French troops at Rome; and an.
Victop Emanuel and Garibaldi to fatigue and
worry Napoleon with the Roman question;
while the third is that Garibalii is acting on
his own authority and in good faith. The first
opinson is the one held at the conrt Of Rome,
and has naturally given so much uneasiness
there as to induce thr ministers Of his Holiness
to pack up their effects for hasty departure.
The third opinion is the one most held at Paris,
and here We learn in the newspaper Offices de
tails which are prohibited from publication, to
the effect that Garibaldi is so much in earnest
that he rejects with energy, with indignation
even, all the overtures the King has made mp
to this moment. It appears that last year
Garibaldi fixed with the King period beyond
which if the Emperor had not evacuated Rome,
he, Garibaldi was to be allowed to undertake
to bring about the evacuation, and that the
time having now arrived, the General will list.
en- to no propositions from any source. To
the Kings messenger he exclaimed, "No!
hold his Majesty to his solemn promise. He
has failed to get the French out Of Rome by
the time stipulated: am going to charge my
self with thst duty!" 1t is said, however that
there is . prospect Of an arrangement, and it
/ will be curious to observe the Of end affairs.
POLITICAL CoNPLTCATI0Hs.
Many people believe that the emancipation OF
Italy is really to commence at Conssantinople,
with q movement that shall detach Hungary
from Austria and render this power weak in
Venetia. If Gsribaldi therefore, is defeated in
his attempt on Rome-and it is said that he ex-
pected and would have had &c, 900 volunteers
he may turn his forces into the Danubian prov
inces, which are ripe for the movement and then
We have revived again the Eastern question and
