RELATIONS OF FRANCE TO THE
UNITED STATEs.-The Paris cores
pondcnt of the London Morning
Post, writing upon the relations OF
France and the United States, and
the possible effect of President John
sons impeachment, says:
"We must get to the end Of the
month Of March before France will
be quite out of possible danger as
regards the Mexican expedition. But,
under any circumstances, if Mr..
johnson is found guilty aud removed
from his Office as Chief Magistrate,
the agreement made by France for
evacuating Mexico will not, of course,
be IN any way affected. On the other
hand, this impeachment will prevent
any negotiations which may have
been contemplated by France with
regard to Mexico.
''Therc is every reason to believe
that the French have sounded the
Washington Government rs to it's in
tentions towards Mexico after the
French army has come away, because
1t is believed here that Maximilian
will not hold out long, and that
eventually the United States must
interfere in establishing a republican
Government. Now, when the French
flag is withdrawn from Mexico,
France finds herself deeply engaged
IN Mexican interests. She has spent
many hundreds of millions of francs
on the empire, and there is much
french property and life to protect
IN that far-of continent. So far as
France is concerned, the impeach-
ment of President johnson seems to
add to the Mexican imbroglio. The
French press appear to look upon
tins conduct OF Congress towards the
President as political event which
shall shake the foundation of the re-
pubic. Your contemporaries gene
raiiy agree that the President may
have committed faults, but has done
nothing to invite so grave charge as
that of high treason. Messrs. Roths-
child are understood to have received
q telegraphic message from America
which cost $4,000 francs. Report
Immediately declares that there are
negotiations going on either
with the Government of the United
States or Mexico, or BOTH

Developments.
The Washington correspondent of
the Baltimore Gazette says that the
programme of the section of which
Stevens is the leader, confessedly de-
mand three things, namely:
l. The removal of the President
the setting aside of the present State
Governments of the South. and The
remodeiling of the Supreme Court.
2: That no Southern Territory
shall be recognized as q State until
the Federal Constitution itself qua
rantees to every '1oyal'' citizen with
IN the Union the ballot and education
and to the negroes land besides.
5. The dlsfranchisement of every
man at the South, complicated, in
any manner, In the late civil war, and
the confiscation of his property, even
to the extent of ignoring the pardon
ing power Of the President.
This plan, in all its enormity, has
the support of at least seventy
members of the radical representa-
ton. Those who, fearful of the recoil
OF public sentiment, and the crushing
power OF popular reaction, whenever
these measures shall he ATTEMPTED to
be practically and forcibly put into
execution, have hesitated to follow
the lead Of Stevens in this instance
nevertheless demand:
Alst. The reconstruction of the
Southern States in virtue Of an Act
OF Congress repndiating their exist
ing status as States, and an admission
OF the power of Congress to regulate
the right Of suffrage therein.
I'd. The eternal prohibition to hold
even State Offices of at least four
hfths of the people Of those States
and
Sd. The restriction (under test
oaths) of representation in Congress,
and all Federal Offices to the negroes
and interlapers of the South.
Between these plans, [ confess L
can see but this practical difference:
That the latter, from its hypocrisy
and lnsldlousness, is the more mis-
chlevous as promising longer delay
IN final settlement The former,
through its more marked and more
honest ultraism, is calculated to
arouse the people to just apprecia-
ton Of the true political condition of
the country, and the fact, now potent
to every one, of the utter incapacitv
OF the political tricksters in CONGRESS-
to deal with the momentous questions
before them.
Eesides, many voted with the ma
]orlty, on this occasion on the ground
that the bill was too lenient to the
Southern people. Mr.. Julian.
although voting in the minority, was
OF this opinion; but, like the old or
thodox Presbyterian when told that
according to even Universalist, belief
sou! might be punished with fire
and birthstone 5000 years, while
obJecting to too great lenienc, .e-
luctantly admitted that it was "bette
than nothing"
The Chronicle, of this morning,
claims Gems. Grant, Sicklcs, Ord,
Helntzelnran, Sheridan and Thomas
rs recent accessions to the radical
party. This wholesale appropriation
OF high names, besides being o sign
OF feebleness, is wholly referable to
the recent accession" of Gen.
Thomas as visitor here. It was no
news to be informed of his radicalism
or OF that of Gen. Sheridan. With
regard to the others, the Chronicle
knowingly falsifes the record.

The FnENC1t Press. The Paris
correspondent Of the .Jofauul Of Com
mc7ce, writing on the 1lth. states
that the impeachment conspiracy ut
Washington is received there with
a feeling akin to general amuzcncnt.
The writer says:
The tone of the French press is
almost universally remonstrative and
alarmed on the subject. President
Johnson has somewhat alienated the
good will of the French people them
selves, as he undoubtedly has that of
their Government, by his recent bear
ing on the Mexican question. But
still the voice of most Of the Liberal
Journals is opposed to the present
action Of Congress, and regards it as
dangerous to the spirit and even ex-
lstence OF American institutions.
Thus the Temps reprobates, $50 cx-
treme = measure as the removal Of
the first magistrate Of the republic, )"
and the Presse hopes that political
good sense will not fail the statesmen
of the Union at this crisis. In short,
the news IS received with an alarm
and disfavor equal to the estimation
of its gravity and i'll consequences.
And 1T is quite natural that such
should be the views Of the French
people, for all remember only too
We'll the days when an impeachment
OF the President of their republic was
talked of by the Assemblies National,
and have all known, also, only too
well, that such step in France was
equivalent to the outbreak of civil
war
