There ie an acknowledged political a1liauce,
offensive and defensive, between the North
ern Copperheads or slave Democracy, and
the Southern srmcd traitors. The latter
freely acknowledge the profound interest
they fell in the Presidential election on this
side the military lines. while the treacherous
Democracy hare publicly accepted the sym
patby and Irofftred aid Of their, Southern
friends. Leading slave Democrats visited
Clay, Holcombe and company, In Canada,
not to promote IN honorable peace negotla-
tion with the Government, but to advise with
them in regard to the platform and candi-
dates: to be put in nomination By the Chica-
60 Convention. Without inclfning, In: the

rebel organs have ceased 10 pretend thatthey

FRENCH MILITARY MOVEMENTS IS MEXICO
The MoaiteRr publishes some general details
concerning the result of the late military proceed
ings in Mexico. 1t says: During the expedition
commanded by General Bazane against the bands
of Juarez, the artillery did not remain inactive.
Besides the batteries attached to each division and
to headquarters, there were the parks, organized
in such manner as to suffice for all eventuaties;
they were at the same time sufficiently easy OF re-
moval to follow all the operations of the eSpcdi-
tionary corps, notwithstanding the bad weather
and the wretched state of the roads which had for
a long time past been left without repair The
mountain artillery accomplished its task perfectly
and the experiment made in Mexico proves once
more the complete utility ofthsse guns in billy
countries. This expedition has again shown the
advantages of our artillery, which, notwithstand-
ing its ghtnesS is yet of nature TO resist all the
obstacles presented by the ground. All the French
draft horses have well resisted the climate and the
fatgues of this march OF four hundred leagues, and
all arrived 1t che City of Mexico in good condi-
ton. In that city this period Of two months and
a half was turned to account. Tho arsenal com.
pleted the arrning and provisioning of the place,
constructed two batteries of Mexican l2.pound-
ers, and manufactured all the cartridges necessary
far the Marquee. Mejia and Nicario divisions, and
for the surrounding populations. At the foundry
two batteries of l2 FOUNDERS and half battery OF
field artillery were cast turned and bored and the
three other pieces of the latter battery are now in
hand. This establishment, besides, manufactured
ali the accessories necessary for the construction
of the new batteries and the repair Of the existing
ones. The installation of the laboratory is ter
minated. and all the improvements required in
the foundry are being proceeded with. The man
ufactory of percussion caps has been rendered ca
pable of turning out l,CO0,0OO caps and 10000
quick matches a month, which is more than is re-
Quired for the consumption. Lastly the shells
and cannon balls for the Mexican army are cast,
under the direction of French officer, in factory
belonging TO NJ. BeauranG. The arming and pro-
vstoning Of all the small posts stationed along the
road from Vera Cruz TO the City of Mexico have
also been provided for"
