Paris, Aug!27
For some DAYS past the Ameficsnsof |
the northern Union have been loud in their |
assertions that President Lincoln has made
u communication to the Emperor of the |
French that would make him repent his
march up,n Mexico. By most persons
conyersant with the state of American af.
fairs this was treated as "bunkum." The
Pat,ie, however, last night seemed to be
authorized to tell the world that a protest
relating to the late political events ia Mex
leo bad been forwarded by the last Ameri
can packet boat, the City of Cork, that it
was to be presented this week by the
american ambassador to the Court Of the
Tuileriea' The government of Mr.. Lincoln
it was asserted by that journal, invoked
the Monroe doctrine, and broadly stated
that the possession Of Mexico was a
meusce to American Independence and
an encouragement given to the secession
lists. aas
From the Liverpool Post, Aug. %.
A telegram has been handed 20 us nv a
well-known merchant of Liverpool, receiv-

| effect when threatens tho most serious and
terrific eveu:s. The news is that the Ala
bama has gone into Cherbourg for repairs.
| If this turn out true, and if the Florida is
at B-est, what other conclusions can be
come TO than that the Emperor of the
| French has resolved to make friends of the
Southern Coufederacy2 Ic this be so, how
car war between France and the North be
avoided? And if war epsue between
France and the Federal government, it
will not be ccnfued to America. Russia
would undoubtedly make common cause
with the United States; Enropean war
would commence simultaneously with that
across the Atlantic; and, for The first time,
America would be engaged in European
conflict.
Had we not been led up to the situation
by degrees, this alone would have been re.
garded as an event Of transcendeut impor-
lance. There can be little doubt that in
the Truth or the fslsehood Of this little piece
OF news and it is vouched by good author

The IrrepressIbve CONFLICT.


Mr.. Seward defined the : irrepressible
conflict" whish he declared was beng
wssed between the people Of two sections
Otthe Union to be an enduring one be-
tween freedom and slavery, until one or the
other should 90 to the wall. And Mr..
Lincoln gave it similar definition, md
declared it would not end until the States
were ali,made free or all made slave.
Upon this issue the Republican party
triumphed; and cotempOrary truthfully
remarks that the American people now
realize all the horrible reality which this
" irrepressi5le conflict, which Messrs.
Seward and Lincoln and their patty have
brought on the country
The irrepressible conflict, during the
last three years, has been in course of
bloody execution. We see it's horrible
consequences on every side of US.
We see it in an increased army, 10 three
years, from twenty-five thousand to one
million and quarter of men. We see it
in an increased expenditure Of public
money, from seventy millions of dollars in
a year. up to over one thousand millions
of dollars per annum. We see it in enor~
nous taxes on everything we eat, drink,
wear and use. Wes it 10 the destruc-
ton of American forts, and arsenals, and
| .harbors, and railroads, aod State capitals,
and American cities and Villages, by AM
erican hands. We see it in negro regis
| meats, and negro murders Of innocent
white people. We see it 10 the infamed
| passions and inextinguishabls hate, /"
which has broken up the Union, which ex'
cites and maddens parties, breeds discord
in families and churches, discrepancies socie-
| ty, and turns to folly the wisdom and ac
ton of public men. We see it on an hun
bred battle fields, where the blood of AM
ericau citizens has flowed like water. We
see it in devastated and ruined country.
The history Of the irrepressible con-
fict," so far, has been covered with blood
Lincoln and Seward have had the salts
faction Of seeing the workings of their cir.
repressible conflict" They have doubtless
watched its progress with supreme salts
faction. 10 short, look into the daily pa
pers, and you will hardly read of anything
else but the history of the irrepressiblt
conflict" aG-Etsa.t -- .z-E -- q
I And it is proposed that this " irrepressi
4 BILE copfict" shall continue to character.
iSe the mOvemeuts.Of the existing poiitica
parties. The contest is to go on unit
eight millions of white men, women ant
children are enslayed, suAjuga:ed, or de
stroyed. 1t is TO go on until our once free
and happy Republic has been converted in
to despOtism. 1t is to so Oh between tht
North and the South until the scenes G.
blood shall sicker the most bard hearted
So much for the irrsprsssible conflict"
