CONTEMPLATED WITHDRAWAL OF THE FRENCH THoorS
FROM MEXICO.
1beleVe am warranted in saying that in few
days more tho public anxiety in relation to the
cial announcement Of the fact that the Mexican
lmbrogho has been settled ul q manner consistent
with the honor Of tho American people, and in &C
cordanco with tho principles of the Monroe doc
trine The reported settlement is said to bo the
result of Mr. Stewards diplomatic labors for some
months past. It is said that Immediately after
Lee, Mr.. Seward caused tho Emperor Of France to
BIO Informed, through tho proper channel, that the
Government Of tho United States was then, or
cipIes Of the Monroe doctrine; that, owing to the
difficulty which had been experienced in suppress
ing the rebellion, and the length Of time which
compelled to stand and look on, ind tacitly consent
to some things which were entirely opposed to the
spirit Of our institutions; that among them was
the establishment Of foreign monarchy in Me1i-
co on the ruins Of the Mexican republic; that the
United States Government is now able to devote
tho proper degree Of attention to its foreign rela
ions; that the Monroe Doctrine constitutes one Of
the most cherished principles Of our Government,
and that the President is determined to enforce it,
that in q few weeks we would have o veteran army
OF half million of men, who could be thrown into
Mexico in few days; and that, if it became ne
expulsion Of Maximilian and the Ha French troops
fom Mexico. and in the restoration Of the repub-
lie there. These, Of course, were not the words;
but it is said that this was the tenor and effect OF
the dispatch and that it has had tho intended ef-
feet; and that the Government has recently receiy
ed from France the assurance that the French
troops shall oil be withdrawn from Mexico, and
that MaMmilian himself will soon abdicate his
the receipt Of this most gratifying intelligence
from France that orders have been given for the
gradual dsbandment of the United, States troops
in Texas. They were sent there because it was
not yet known what the decision of Napoleon would
be; and there Was o prospect at one time that
their services would be actually needed for the e1-
NF1
is known that the Monroe Doctrine will be respect
ed by Napoleon, and, therefore, the necessity
which existed for their being sent to the Rio
Grande has passed away. The Monroe Doctrine,
therefore, viii be established on o frmer basis
than ever before; and the friends Of MIR. Seward
declare that this is entirely the work Of the Secre
the re-esta abishnent Of the republican form OF 60
vernment in Mexico, must not be looked for imme-
diately. But that these events will take place
within reasonable time, it is said, there is no
doubt whatever intimated, some time ago, that
if Maxmiian did finally Gbdicate, the Secretary Of
State would claim the credit for having brought
founded on facts, it will be evident that the Secre
tary can make out pretty fair case.
THE RECLAIMED HUSBAND.
Much interest is excited in fashionable circles
here, by the return to this city OF MIR. and Mra
G., whose adventures have reoontly occupied
so much space in the Now York papers The lady
was for many years great faTorlts IN society
here, and has many warm and influential friends
Every one sympathises with her in the trials she
has undergone, and hopes that her troubles and
trials are now at end. i do not think You would
care to have me repeat oil that the gosaips say
about this unhappy case. The husband has init
mated his intention of living with his wife in
future, and of giving her no ground for complaint
and as long as he does this, the public has right
to indulge In speculations about his family.
THE PRESIDENTS HOUSE.
The Presidents unwillingnces to leave the White
House, causes O great deal Of remark. Several
members of the Cabinet have declared that they
will not attend the meetings Of that body, If they
said that four of them have united in petition to
the President, entreating him to remove to another
house, and declaring that they will not risk their
health by inhaling the poisonous malaria of the
present building, and that they will not attend the
Cabinet meetings in that house any longer.
