The Franco Belgian Difficulty.

The following is the text OF the note
relative to the Frauco-Belgian difficulty,
published by the Journal O6icieI, and at
the same time by the Belgian Moniteur !:
After negotiations between the gov
ernments of their NECESSITIES the Emperor
Of the French and the King of the Bel
gians, the two Cabinets have agreed on
the terms of the following declaration;
"The presentation and vote of the bill
of the 23d of February on the transfer OF
the railway concessions have given rise
in France to notions, on the subject Of
which the Kings government has thought
right to transmit to Paris explanations
of sincere aud entire unreseryedness.
The French and Belgian governments,
in order to afford each other a mutual
proof of their cordial and coniding dis
positions. and with the desire to concili-
ate the interests of the two countries,
have come to an understanding to iust;-
tute mixed commission to be charged
to examine the different economic ques.
tions which have been produced either
by the existing relations or by recent
pr jscts of treaties for the ssGsion and
workiug of railway lines, and Of which
the solution would be Of a mature to de-
velop the commercial and Industrial in-
between the two countries"

For the last ten days tho health of the

tion, which has increased in intensity, q
slow fever saps her strength. Her eyes
are fixed and lustreless, and her conver-
sation unconnected. She often speaks OF
Mexico. At times she refuses 10 touch
the lightest ailments presented to her,
aud seems to fear being poisoned by
some one Of thoss about her. The Queen
OF the Belgians is the only person that
has sufficient influence over her, and iu-
spires her with confidence enough to
make her take her indicative potion or

Dou Piatt IS the Radical Washington
correspondent of Cincinnati Radical
paper. But he tells the truth, if il comes
in the way, no matter who suffers. Here
is a paragraph from ola of his late
letters:
"a distinguished statesman, lately
recalled to public life after sn absence of
twelve years, said to me not long since:
Those Southern fellows we're very un-
reasonable and troublesome, but they
would not steal The Government is
run on stealings, aud fraud rois It's
foundations. The Southern soldiers
marched without pay, and fought with
poor food, aud slept without tents, and
without blankets. Every sol
dier of the Government cost US million,

the stealings of officials. We build on
and take pride in display. We
are blest with q civilization that makes
