LONDON, October 10, 1863.
JAMES GoRDoY BENNETT, ESQ:
Sm-A piece Of intelligence Of a most mo-
mentoVs character, as concerns its bearing
upon the future of the United States, has lust
come into my possession.
Plans have been for several months ma
turing for European alliance, which is to
have for its aim the control OF the destinies of
the American continents.
A "strietiy confdentiaP correspondence
was commenced as early as last May, at the
instance of an influential (though not power.
fuD Western sovereign, between most of the
Cabinets with respect to the feasibility of the
measure; but the Polish question assumed so
crave aiorm-occasioning new and unforeseen
complicatons-tha no considerable progress
was made toward the consummation of the
scheme. Then came the terrible reyerses of
the rebels, which, until the last fortnight en-
dangered the probability of the success of
such an undertaking without an immediate
declaration of war, inasmuch as it was feared
that after all Secessia might be hemmed in
and resistance to the Union stihed.
But the holding out OF Charleston and the
more recent disastrous defeat of Rosecrans-
together with other rebel triumphs in Lousi.
ana, Texas and elsewhere-have caused ne.
gotiations to be renewed; and they are now
going on with the utmost activity, and with
every prospect of an early completion.

allusion to the projected alliance He took
occasion to remark; 81 must make my ac-

pteGiScite Of the whole country. On the
other hand it would be my duty to ask for
guarantees which are indispensable to secure
Mexico against the dangers which threaten
her integrity and independence" Macmillan
has been well advised. His sagacious father
in law, King Leopold, the Nestor of SOW
ereignp, has been his faithful mentor.
The parties to the contract at FIRST, if it
shall be perfected, will be Rome (as the head
of the Latin church, Austria, Spain, France
and Great Brtain. Italy hestates, but there
are influences at work which, it is believed
will cause Victor Emanuel to yield his assent;
and it is believed that Prussia, unwilling TO
isolate herself still farther from the three
Powers mentioned, may even so far break with
Russia as to give in her adhesion.

ment has indicated its readiness to enter into
treaty, offensive and defensive, with this
embryo alliance against the United States,
upon the condition that the durable indepen-
dence of the thirteen States which are repre-.
sented in the Congress of the Confederacy
shall be guaranteed, and that Maryland-in
which the District of Columbia, as il is a part
OF her soil, is to be included-shall, as one of
the conditions of peace between the present
belhgerents be allowed to dispose Of herself
to go North or 60 South at her own option
after all the Federal troops have been with
drawn from her limits, in order that no undue
influence may be brought to bear upon her
final choice
The Confederate States on their part, are
to expressly stipulate that they will never at
tempt to annex any portion of Mexico, Cuba,
or Porto Rico, and that they will contribute
all in their power to resist the annexation of
aDyportion of the British possessions in Amer
icai to the United States, Jas well as to aid ia
repelling any armed Intervention of the said
United States in Mexico adverse to the doc

Northern abolitonists and tho utter demor-

government, which is exclusively under the
control of the Summers and the Chases. the

BY which such result is not unlikely to be ef-
