RELATIONS OF FRANCE AND MRxIco.
The New York Times London corres-
pendent says the news from America is
likely TO make some stir across Tia. Chan
mel. 1t is believed here that some thou
sands of Southern soldiers are already in
the army of Maximilian, and that tie
Emperor Napoleon, finding such body
Of recruits at hand, will not be under tl,.
necessity of sending reinforcements across
tho Atlantic -. ............
Gen. breckenridge is expected in Lon
don on the 2Sth on his way to Paris, ac-
companied by several Confederate officers
who, It is supposed. will volunteer for
Mex'co, and are sure of being joined
there by numbers of their late comrades
1t Is said Gwin's arrangement I'm Nor
thern Mexico will be carried out, and
there is no doubt Napoleon is fully com
mitted to his Mexican policy, which will
De whatever seems necessary to secure it.
The capitalists of France are Interested
to some extent in the development of
Mexican resources.
If is true, as reported, that there is a
formidable movement in America TO fierce
the Government to carry out the Monroe
doctrine by driving Maximilian out of
Mexico, there are lively times in prospect
England will be neutral if she can. The
only thing that can make her 60 to war
with America would be III. certainty Of
war with France in case Of her refusal
Of two such evils she would take the

MEXICAN AFrAIRs-1M. Eion', MIS-
sion to France : Tie Secres iSerriee BIZ
reau.-New York, July 2s-The Herald
publishes the following relative to Mexi-
lean Affairs - aiAaF.
Immediately upon the receipt by Max
imilian Of news of the death Of Mr. Lin
coin and the surrender of Gen. Lee and
the complete termination of our war, he
dispatched to Europe his especial advi-
ser, n. Elon, Chief of the Cabinet. to
advise with Louis Napoleon, King Leo
pold Of Belgium, and the Emperor of
Austria, as to what should be done under
this change Of affairs, the Empire in
Mexico having been undertaken under
the conviction that the United States
was permanently disrupted, and that eur
civil war would continue for many years.
M. Elon left Vera Lruz on this mission
the Sd of May last. passing by way Of
this city. and now returns by the same
route. 1t was then reported that while
here he had an Interview with President
johnson, and that the interview was of a
very satisfactory character. This report
was entirely without foundation. We
have reason to believe the mission Of NJ.
Elpn-io Europe has been fruitful of inn.
portant results to Louis Napoleon. He
was instructed by Maximilian to state
that the empire could only be established
to tranquility and thoroughly pacifed by
the aid Of largely increased forces Of
foreign, troops and an outlay Of much
larger sums Of money which must also
be furnished from abroad. 1t was idle
to place any reliance upon revenue in
Mexico for some years to come. These
reinfoI Icements of troops and necessary
funds mnst be furnished by France, fer
they could be obtained nowhere else;
and, further, that in view of the changed
state Of affairs in the United States
France and other Interested European
powers must guarantee his throne against
any attacks from without; that unless
these conditions could be complied with
Maximilian did not choose 10 stay in
Mexico NJ. Elon was instructed to pro.
cure restoration TO Maximilian Of his
rights of succession to the Austrian
throne lin the event Of his returning
from Mexico. This is the only part q
the mission Of, NJ. Elon, which has beer
attended with any success, and here this
his success has been complete. Maxi
milan can now return to Austria, and
regain his rights OF succession there Al
any, moment by simply giving up hi,
throne in Mexico. We have reason alst
fer belief that the mission. of NJ. Flor
has been productive. Of further results
that be, comes bsek, with him to Mexico
