What the French Minister Saws.
UEPALATABLE FACTS FOR THE
REBELS.

NEW YORK. May 6-The Washington dis
patch Of the 5th to the New York Times as
terts that the French Minister went to Rich
nlond TO assure the rebels that tue Emperor
Of the French does not recognize them as a
power among the nations; that England aud
France, by recognizing them as bel1igerents,
did all that could be expected on the part Of
the neutral governments; !; that the blockade Of
rbeir ports is efIectual; that they are fairly
beaten in arms, and their Independence as .
nation is impossible; that continuance OF
hostilities BY the threatened destruction
Of the cotton and tobacco crops Of their
citizens, would only be wanton injury
to the commerce Of the world, injuf-
ing France and England even more than
the United States aud that the resort
10 guerrilla warfare, IS proposed, when their
o!u'ies are destroyed, would demoralize 60
elesy, and be simply g return to barbarian.
The rebels have been admonished, therefore,
that cessation Of hostilittes is q duty they
owe to themselves aud to the world. which
an civilized nations will unite In requiriug o1
them.

PAnUcAn, Ky., May 6.-JeH. Thompson is
IN Western Kentucky, with 1,00o cav
a}zy. Be came across q company Of
Cu1tis's Nebraska Horse on yesterday
near Dresden, and scattered them in every d.
rection without any loss Of life. One of
them arrived in this city about midnight
last night, hat1ess, coatless and IA
tigued from long ride Of over forty miles.
Quite an excitement exists in the country
in relation to this raid Of JEFF. The probablli-
lies are, judging from his antecedents, that
scores Of miles are now placed between him
ard his late position,
There is little doubt entertained here Is to
the correctness Of the reported evacuation Of
Corintl by Bcaurrgard, and that our forces
are now in possession there.
