IMPORTANT AND EXCITING MEETINGS OF FRENCH
AND ENGLISH STATESMEN.
Paris cNor 2sl Correspondence Of independence Bsgs
You must have remarked the obstinate silence
which both the English papers and the French
ministerial journals observe on the subject of the
political relations which exist between the Cabi.
nets of London and Paris Are we 10 infer from
this fact that the communications between the two
Governments are not so frequent rs they formerly
Weres and that reserve has succeeded the active
relations which were established between the two
Cabinets after the failure OF the Conference OF
LOndoni Certainly not the SIMPLE explanation
is that there no Longer exist any threatening
questions admitting OF no delay aud that, on the
other hand, as nothing has happened to disturb
the good feelings which, without being close
alliance, have never ceased TO exist since the mis-
sion Of Lord Clarendon it is useless TO speak of
a concert for which there Is ut the present mo-
ment no occasion,
For some days past however, the interviews
between English ana French statesmen have been
and still continue TO be more frequent than before.
On Tuesday Earl Cowley transacted business
with M. Drouyn de Lhuys, and on the same
day the Prince dc la Tour d'AuyeTgne had a long
conference with the head of the Foreign Office
In London. According to the most accredsled
version, it is America which has formed the sub
ject of deliberation both here and on the other
side of the channel. The Lincoln election, the
speech of Mr.. Seward that of Mr. Jefferson
Davis, the affair Of the florida, the YiOient at
tack of Mr.. Webb in his letter TO the Brazilian
Minister-an attack in which, though England
alene is designated, she is endeayoring TO induce
France to look upon it as a menace te both coun-
tries-all this series Of facts is of nature 10
make the statesmen Of England and France
reflect.
The probability, therefore, is that the wish
both in London and Paris is to ascertain the
respective opinion Of each Cabinet on peculiar
points which, under certain contingencies, might
give rise to q joint action on their part. But
there certainly has been nothing beyond this
neither the question OF Intervention nor the
recognition Of the South has, it is said, been
agitated. According, however, TO what is affirmed,
Earl Russell at present feels greater sympathy
for the cause Of secession than was formerly the
case. As, therefore, In France opinion has
always shown itself in favor OF the Southern Con-
iederacyi the conjecture may be formed that
