THEIRS AT THE COURT OF ENGLAND.
New YORK, September 1.-THE Worlds
London special says that yesterday alter
noon Earl Granville called on Thiers, at
the French Embassy. Although Thlers
came fully qualified by the French GOV
ernment, he could not be received IN
Downing street, as the English Govern
ment will not yet recognize the Repupllc.
Earl Granville, however, conferred Win
him as the representative OF the de (deto
Government of France. Ssmi-oihciaIiy /
the Earl exhibited all his well-known /
courtesy and susVity. His lordship said;
= hope YOU viii allow me to express the
deep regret with which, as an Individual,
have seen so many mlsiOrtunes oeIall
France, a country allied in so many ways |
10 England. If my earnest wishes could |
be of any avail, peace would soon restore
her to her former prosperity"
-Tbiers replied: q France is quite able
and determined to defend herself against
All her foes; but she earnestly desires
peace; and it is for that reason that by me
she now asks England, upon whose ac-
tion sll the powers OF Europe are now
waiting, to Join them in securing Tor her
/ such terms Of peace as she can hOnorably
accept. She will accept no terms that are

/ how England can interfere; but think 1
/ NAV say that while preserving strict neu-
| traiity, England will present 70 Prussia
| any propositions Offered by France, and
| act the mart of a sincere friend. II cannot,
| however, be expected that England will
| ioin auy power in uttering threats TO
-Prussia- nor can England ever positively
| promise to urge upon Prussia the accept
| ance of any offer which France may De
| disposed to make her"
Theirs firmly but courteously said upon
this. that " ne saw nothing to be looked
for from England in the matter; and that
the negotiations undertaken by the con-
| tinenUaI powers, with the hops OF Eng
lands cooperation, must probably De
suffered to fall through"
/ This interview was shortly Afterward
ended, and made public late in the sf1er-
noon. -,
AN ELOQUENT APPEAL IN BEHALF OF
