everywhere announces the deposition
OF Napoleon, and declares him RESPONSE
bic for the ruin and invasion of France.
The appointment of Aurelles De Pala-
dine has given offense because of his
acknowledged firmness and talent, he
has plan for the reorganization of the
national guard, approved by Theirs.

most difficult problem. Disgraceful
scenes enacted in Paris will soon be put
down.
LONDON, March THE .Post" learns
that prospect of the settlement of all
matters of dispute between the United
States and England by the high COM
mission at Washington, is very prom
Using. There is, says the Post, an evil
dent disposition to treat ali topics
with fairness. The discussion will take
place upon the question of the fisheries,
and afterward upon the Alabama
claims.
NEW YORK, March S.-Washington
special says agreement has been made
that the proceedings and discussions of
the joint high commission shall be kept
entirely secret until finally shaped and
sent to the Senate for ratification. 1t
may, however, be safely asserted that
comparison of views has thus far dis
closed no insurmountable obstacles to
the settlement of the questions at issue,
and members now feel more sanguine
of success than before the meeting be-
gan. One of the commissioners pre-
dicted to-day their work would be COM
pleted by the middle of April. If the
Senate is not then in session, it is
thought the President will call it to-
gether for the purpose of acting on the
result of the commissioners labors.
The commission are now engaged in
considering the fishery question, and
there is rumor prevalent that this mat
ter will be adjusted so as to allow
American vessels to fish in all Canadian
waters, irrespective of the three mile
limit, on payment of a sum ofmoney to
be agreed on by the commission.
Washington specials says Mr.. Ortiz,
| of Indiana, who for two or three
months past has expected an appoint
ment as minister to Berlin, and who
used his efforts to have that mission
raised to the level of that of Paris, and
London, was informed by the President
yesterday that he had concluded to re-
tain Mr.. Bancroft at Berlin. Orth wa:
offered the mission to Brazil recently
resigned by Mr.. Blow, but he declined
it. 1t is not likely any action will be
taken to interfere with the positions o.
Senators Summer and Schurz, on com
of foreign relations in the rearrange'
ment of the standing committees of thu
| Senate.
