SEWARD AND NAPoLToT.-The little muss at the
North between Seward and his opponents has caused
the official conduct of the Secretary to be scrutinized
very closely. The Chicago Times Washington CORE
-pondent yentates him as follows;
Another thing has come TO light, which, If it be
verified, ought to cover Mr.. Seward with shame His
friends now boasting that he has made a secret
agreement with the French government, by which the
United States have consented TO stand still and look on
while Napoleon nyades Mexico, cOnquers her. and re-
duces her to the condition of French province, at the
price Of NupOieOns non-interlerence in civil war
That is, Seward buys off " Napoleon by selling TO
him revolutionary right to annex Mexico, and by
giving up the sacred principles OF the Monroe doctrine
This, if true, would account for Mr. Stewards oft
repeated and compliment declaration that there is no
danger of foreign Intervention" But the whole story
is improbable, The Emperor Napoleon is not foQl
He knows that nothing but treaty Will bind The United
States and that the Senate alone IS the treaty -making
power 1t is probable, however, that there secret
understanding between the Emperor and Mr.. Lincolns

SUS Ar AND BIrrERs.-The London Times in review
ing the Great Exhibition reports:
For the sugar refner there sugars of every kind
and manufactured, from all parts Of the world,
and almost from all substances known. One case is
shown in which there a series of beautifully crystal
zed specimens of sugar from sugar cane, beet maple
corice gelane, milk and fat; also sugar from grapes
from starch, from ergo of rye, from mamma and from
flesh" Other curious sugars are also known, including
of crystals made from swee, pea. Close by these
is the pharmaceutical casa very FINE and large
IN which, for the first time, shown together n
plee collection Of all the drugs, herbs and medicines
included in the London Pharmacopa. Every one is
free to handle and examine these preparations but
it is said that the British public, after touching have
desire for tasting, curator is in attendance 10 prevent
indcreet examination into the properties of very vr-
lent poisons. After saying this it is justice 10
the visitors TO add that long of gapots left oGt

though very nasty medicines have remained nntasted

Washington, Sept 22-An order has been is
sued for the removal of all the criminals impris-
oned in the Penitentary of this District to the
old county Jail in Albany, N Y, to afford an
opportunity for the enlargement Of the arsenal
made absolutely necessary BY military exigen-

BY direction of the President the States Of

Washington, Sept 23-The emancipation
proclamation of the President is generally APP
proved here. Republicans predict that it viii
restore to the President all his old friends and
unite the sound portion of the people in favor of
the Union and the Constitution.
The Intelligencer regards the proclamation as
harmless production but adds that if it should
prove otherwise it viii open issues too tremend-
Gus for calculation.
Our army officers appear to acquiesce in it, and
some Of them express warm approval. The con-
duct of Gov. Stanely's administration in North
Carolina is under examination by the Govern
ment. Complaints have been made against
Stanely. Mcdowell has returned TO Washington.
