Ai1Li
Some curious revelations have come
TO our knowledge about the remon-
strauce which her Maiestys govern
meut has anuounued it, intebtion to
address Ia that OF the Confederate
States, upon the basis Of an alleged re-
port Of the Confederate Secretary ofthe
Navy. which Is denounced by the Con
federates in Europe as a forgery. 1t
VIII be remembered that tine recall Of
three OF the four British eonspls with
in the Confederate jurisdiction, and the
dismissal by the Confederate govern
ment of the fourth and last iemain-
ing, left the Foreign Office no alterna-
tive but to communicate with the
authorities at Richmond by 4 special
envoy. For this delicate mission Dir.
Crawford, her Majesty's Consul at
Havana, was selected, and it must be
admitted that in. this section Earl Rus
sell displayed far more fact and discre-
ton than he has of late been able to
claim credit for. Mr. Crawford, both be
fore and since the war, has been well
and fayorably known in the Southern
States. and is universally esteemed
here Few persons, therefore, could
have been found better adapted to dis
charge so disagreeable a duty without
giving offence
Before hoWever, proceeding n per-
son to Richmond, lie was instructed
to acquaint the Confederate Govern
ment with the nature Of his communi-
cation, and ascertain whether it would
be received For this purpose the
steamer Petrol was sent to a Conteder-
ate port, but was peyemptorily refused
admission by the federal blockading
squadron, on the ground that no com
munication with the Confederate au-
thorities by a foreign government
could be permitted. Here the matter
stands at present, and it leaves Earl
Russell in no very agreeable or digni-
fed dilemma. 1t IS generally believed
il Confederate circles that the object
Of the Washington government is TO
delay as long as possible the official ex-
posture of the forger, which must newt
ably ensue on the presentation Of a re-
monstrance based upon a document to
which the name Of the Confederate
Secretary Of the Navy is fraudently APP
pended

When the Archduke Maximilian quit
ted the Tulleries for London, he acct
dentally left behind him q casket
containing some jewelry Of no great
value, and about FIVE hundred francs Iii

themselves, that they were under the
impression that the Archduks had left

considered admissible they were az
