NEw YONG, September I8.-The Paris
correspondents of the New York Times
under date of September 4th saws,
most important change has taken place
in European affairs The Emperor Ma
poleon has turned sammersault, and
now lies in the dust at the feet of Prince
Gortzchakof His position of European
dictator is at an end, and hereafter he
will have enough to do to take care of
himself His majesty tried TO carry
England and Austria with him into a war
with Russia and Prussia on the Polish
question, and hoped BY this war to CON
quor the Rhinish Provinces, but his allies
took alarm, and while England declared
boldly she wonld not go to war for Po-
land, Austria went to work to organize
the German Confederation against him.
About the same time there came to
Paris positive assurances that Mr.
! Casslus Nj. Clay was maturing an allj-
ance between the United States and
Russia, which engaged the United States
to attack France in Mexico in case of a
European war; There arose before Ma
poleon that bugbear of his family a
coalition which should embrace as active
enemies Russia, the German Confedera-
ton. the United States, and as aypassive,
but not less dangerous enemy, Great
Britain. Such a combination would
fell on his knees before Gortzcbakoff
protested he never intended to 90 TO war
for Poland, washed his hands of the Po-
fish question and begged to be friends
again.
England being thus placed morally in
the attitude of hostility to France and
Russia, viii be forced into friendship
with the United States
Another result of the affair is. that
the Mexican elephant will be left on Ma
poleon's hands. for the Grand Duke
Macmillan now refuses the throne of
Mexico and there is no other Prince
eligible or acceptable who will take il.
There is now evidence that the in.
trlgues of the French consuls in the
South for the detection of Texas were
true, and they have not ceased.
In regard to the Florida at Brest. the |
same correspondent states THAT the en-. |
gines of the Florida are of English mann
iaeture, and much damaged. Mafitt was
Obliged to stop somewhere, but found
after arriving at Brest, French warkmen
could not repair his English engines and
he would have to wait until he could oct
English workmen from England. All
this has caused delay which has mt
datfitt in towering rage For now his
zessel will probably suffer the fate of the
sumter st Gibralter, but there is no helm
or 1T Matfitt says that but for the mis-
axe OF Lieut. Reed, who cut out the Ca
eo Gushing at Portland, it was in his
programme at one time to enter the mort
i New York or Boston and burn the
,lace.
When the Florida first came into
'rest, Mr.. Dayton protested formally
gainst her admission, but not probably
nth the expectation of having her ex-
elled. So Ear, the French have faith

expected they would also in this, but the :
