composure which, under such circumstances,
reigned around. Capt. Martin stationed him.

or into the saloon; but to none could ne oner
word of comfort by telling them that their
safety was even probable. he Joneq now ana
then for few moments in the pubic devo-
tons. but his place to the last was on the deck.
About two O'Clock in the afternoon, the water
gaining fast on the ship, and no signs of the
storm subsding being apparent, small band
of men determined to trust themselves to the
mercy of the waves in small boat rather
than go down without a struggle. Leaving
the saloon, therefore they got out and lowered
away the port cutter, into which 16 of the
crew and three OF the passengers succeeded
in getting and in launching clear of the ship.
These IL men shouted for the captain to come
with them, but with that heroic courage which
was his chief characteristic, Inc declined to 90
with them, saying: No, / will go down with
the passengers; but wish~you God speed
and safe to land.' The boat then pushed away,
tossing about hopelessly on the crests of the
gigantic waves. Scarcely had they gone
eighty yards, or been five minutes off the deck,
when the fine steamer went down stern fore
most with her crew of human beings, from
whom one confused cry ofhelpless terror arose,
and all was silent forever. After the pinnace
had got away from the London, and in the
brief interval before she foundered, rush
was seen to be made for the two remaining
boats, but the efforts to launch them seemed
to be ineffect .al, and the suddenness of the
laundering at last-the London being an iron
ship-prevented what might have been a sue
cessful second attempt to save few more
lives" ..3.... t.r.f .....s.. .......,,. ..., p,

The French to Leave Mexico.


twill have been perceived by our recent
foreign advices that the general anticipation
Of back down on the part of Napoleon in
Mexico is likely to be fulfilled. His impe-
rial majesty has apparently become convinced
Of the impossibility of maintaining his present
position. The very decided attitude assumed
by our government in relation to the matter,
added to the widespread and growing ,dissat-
isfaction Of the French people at the ruinous
expenditure involved have together proved
too much for the obstinacy even of the second
"Man of Destiny" Il One of these opposing
forces he might perhaps have resisted. To 90
to war with the United States in defence of
his Mexican policy might not seem to him in
judicious, if such measure were popular at
home; and on the other hand to- oppose the
popular will for any purpose which would ma
terially strengthen him abroad, might :. be
perfectly safe with people so emulous of ma
tional glory as the French. But with both
foreign and domestic influences against him.
to persist in his course was to do thing which
must weaken his present power, and greatly
imperil his dynasty. He knows too well the
dangers and difficulties which in case of his
own death would lie in the way of the success
sion of his heir, to be willing to run needless
risks. Notwithstanding the slight cloud rails
ed by this Mexican affair, France and the
United States have long been bound by ties
of friendship and alliance; and it is possible
that time may come when this friendship
may be of immense value to the child to whom
Napoleon wishes to leave his throne. Such
considerations as these doubtless had their
full weight in determining the tone of the
Emperor's speech to the Senate and Legisla-
tive Chamber on the the 22d ultimo. In that
speech he distinctly says that arrangements
are making to withdraw the French troops
from Mexico, and expresses hope that this
measure will pacify the people of the United
States. This is highly satisfactory so far as it
goes. 1t is hoped, however, that his French
majesty will not be such long time making
his arrangements" to "get out of Mexico" as
ne has been in taking himself away from
Rome. He might not find the temper of the
people of the United States SO patient as that
of the Italians has been. ar-H
One little point in relation to this matter.
which appears in our foreign dispatches of
yesterday, may be regarded as significant
The London Times of the oath ult., in COM
menting upon the situation, says the solution
of the question lies with the United States,
and expresses hope that our government
will allow that solution to be a peaceful one.
1t is but very few months since the same
wise director of English opinion declared that
nothing was needful in the case but for Napo-
ieon to remain firm, and "teach the Washing
ION government that he would stand no nom
sense and all would go as he wishedl 1t
seems that the Thunderer has had occasion in
this-as In few other things-to change its
opinion. ..l.1s ... r.. $500
