The Paris correspondent of the London
Times, under date of the Sth, writes as fol"
lows:
1t is certain the Mexican agent who ar
rived in Paris was sent by Maximiian for
the express purpose of explaining the criti .
cal state of affairs in Mexico, the menacing
attitude of the Americans, and the fear of
his majesty that war would be declared
with the United States, now that the war
with the South is over. The French Gov
ernment has before given the Washington
Cabinet to understand very plainly that
Mexico is under the protection of France;
that France will not allow any power to at
tack it; that tillibusters, and persons enter
ing Mexican territory with hostile designs,
will, if taken in arms, be hanged or shot
without loss of time or mercy; and that the
United, States Government, whose faith
France OF course does not doubt, by
doing all in its power to keep her subjects
from injury to her portage. The Washing
ton Cabinet probably has no desire at this
time to be at war with this country, and
will no doubt act prudently in this affair.
The language and tone of France is what
may be called decidedly energetic. 1t may
not be literally correct as L mention, but 1t
is substantially the imperial letter recalling
Count Mercier from Washington. t
