IMPORTANT IF TRUE
NAPOLEON ANXIOUS FOR A SPEEDY
SETTLEMENT.
A FLEET READY TO BRING AWAY
THE FRENCH. .

NEW YORK, Oct. 5.-A Paris letter of the 18th
OF September says :--.s In consequ ence of some
important news received from Mexico on the
18th, the Emperor Of France, who had already
despatched General DeCastelman, his aide de.
camp, to Macmillan, sent him an order by
telegraph to come back to st. Cieud, where his
Instructions were to be revised and modified
Marshal Raudin, the Minister of War, was
present at this in erview, which am assured
was Of the most important character, ac
cording to the version generally accepted.
based, i understand, not merely upon
the critical condition of affairs in Mexico.

solicitude and annoyance. To this effect the
fleet Of transports collected at Brest and Cler
bourg Is to be largely Increased so as to be ca.
pable Of carrying the whole of the
French contingent and to evacuate Next
co all at once. All that will remain of the
French army will then be a small earri.
son in each Of the harbors where the
Custom House duties are con coded to France
by Macmillan are to be collected Such are,
am assured, the measures just adopted in
Cabinet Council in reference to Mexico. 1
must say, however, that the Paris Pdfrie is not
quite of that opinion, and asserts, on the con-
trary, that General Castleman's mission has not
for its objects, to put an end to the intervention
of France in Mexico"
