Expeditions Fitting out at NeU OfIeans---
Our Relations ,cith France.

NEW YORK, Sept. 5.
II is stated from New Orleans that much ex-
element existed there among rebel sympathi-
zers and their friends in reference to the great
military and naval expeditions about to depart
from that point IL is understood that the
flower Of Gen. Grants army recently operating
at Nicksburg Is or would be embarked on this
important expedition. The destination which
has been given out is Mobile. The rebel sym
pathlzers, however, are quite sure that the ex-
pedtion is going to Texas. 1t is reported that
some of the troops have already gone forward
as the nucleus of the great army of occupa-
ton there. The further talk among these reb-
ell syinpathizers is that this concentration of
federal troops at the mouth OF the Rio Grande
was in consequence OF an anticipated rupture
of friendly relations between France and the
United States; that certain demands have
been made of the French Emperor in re-
spect to his secret operations in Mexico,
which, il not satisfactorily complied with, will
be Immediately followed by the invasion of
that country by the army of Gen. Grant; that
a secret understanding intinating some such
invasion exists between President Lincoln and
the fugitive Mexican President, Juarez; and
finally, that war between France and the
United States, growing out of these complica-
tions, is not impossible.
