Reported Declarations of Ma
poleon About Mexico.

NEW YORK, January 26.--The Daily Nelos has
received special Washington despatch, stating
that private letter from gentleman in Paris,
dated January 4, has been received in Washing
ton, describing a recent interview between
Napoleon and Minister Bigelow. The Emperor
spoke frankly on the Mexican question, and ex-
pressed determination to preserve friendly re-
lations with the United States, and his wish to
withdraw the French troops as soon as he could
be assured that our policy of neutrality towards
Mexico would be continued.
He intimated. however, very plainly, that he
would not abandon Maximilian as long as there
was any danger that the United States would
pull down what he had built up at so much ex-
pense. All he asked was that we would not IN.
teriere with the present Government of Mexico,
the permanence and stability of which, if left to
Itself, he was convinced would be secured.
The correspondent adds:-'I have reason t.
believe that dispatches from Mr.. Bigelow, con
tainmg full report of this interview, were re
ceived by the State Department by the last

Private advices from Madrid (the kilograms

Government is undoubtedly in great danger,
and that the progresslstas entertain confident
expectations OF the success of the revolt. The
Government 1t is alleged, does all 1t can to pre-
vent the transmission OF alarming telegrams to
other countries, and in other ways Detrays
consciousness of the critical state OF affairs.

when The nsurrection broke out was stopped
at Bayonne by despatch from ODonnell re-
commencing her not to leave France-whlch
shows that the Government Is not so confident

1t is also observed that the present outbreak
tegan much in the same way as O'Donnell's
IL suIrectlon in 1854. A great number of arrests
have been made in Madrd-Chiehy OF members
OF the Progressista party, and editors OF the
Progressista newspapers-and the town itse.f IS
so unquiet that 1t is found necessary keep a
strong garrison in it. MarshPl ODonnell has
Waited the barracks OF the town, accompanied
by his political ad dVeTsary, Marshal NarvaeZ.

Contested Election Case.


The majority and minority reports in the con-
tested case from the Sixteenth Congressional
District of Pennsylvania, were submitted this
morning. They are very long and able docu-
ments, making forty pages each. They go to
the printer to-day, with the papers as sent to the
House, by Governor Curtin. 1t is not probable
that the case will come up in the House for a
week or ten days.
Treasury Clerks.
The attempt to reduce the clerical force of the
TIE asury Department is not promising At the
Second Auditors Office there are 100000 claims
OF deceased soldiers awaiting settlement. The
number is diminishing rapidly as last month
5000 more cases were settled than were brought
in. In the Third Auditors Office all the ac'
counts of quartermasters will take ten years to
settle.
In fact, the Quartermasters accounts of the
Mexican War had but Just been closed when the
Office the growth of the moneyorder system and
the spread of postal accommodations among the
Southern States is more likely to lead to an
increase than diminution of clerks.

The case of Mrs. Cobb against ex-General

The plaintiff deposed that she stated to Mr..
Howell, for whom she procured pardon, thai
money would accomplish almost anything, and
that the said Howell gave her Petition signed

during the war. No testimony of unusual in

According to a telegram, the advanced guard
of the grand army arrived in Sligo yesterday,
and were at once taken into custody. They
were fully armed, and meant, no doubt, to dis
tingUish themselves by capturing the island. To
their disgust, however, they were captured
themselves, and instead of the town rising to
the rescue, it seems to have acquiesced most
gratefully to the indignity. Had they been
hanged on the spot they would have but met
their deserts, but that might have been sim
