New PhnM of the Irfeiican Question,
foreign and Domestic.
Front the Timet
The iet4ent despatches of our Minister at
Vienna and Pans, setting forth tho proeeedlnuB
ud purpopw of the Austrian and French Gov
ernments concerniuir Mexico, give us renewed
aiatuance of the speedy PoHition ot the Mexican
question so far as Ihe matter of foreign inter
vention to concerned; but the plots, Intrigues,
and quarrels Of Mexican leaders here, as well as
in Mexicb itself, open up a prospect of a con
tinuance or recurrence of the old-time troubles
o that unhappy country in their most aprsra
vated forms, as soon as ever the foreigners shall
have disappeared troui its soil.
The despatch of Mr. Motley was satisfactory,
so tar as the present action ot AnstiU is Con
cerned. Ilg uuered the most energetic protest
against the (-ending of troops from that country
to support Muxiuiilian, ana the result was that
troops were prevented trom leaving, whilo, at
the same time, the Austrian Government grave
assurances ot its purpose to do everything pos
sible to maintain amicable relations with the
United States. This was unquestionably knoivn
to tho French Government, when, at tne boem
Ding 01 this month, Mr. bierelow had an inter
view with tue Ficnch Minister of Foreign
Atlairs, the result ot which was contained in th
despatch transmitted to Congress on Friday
last. And in giving a repetition ot the already
reiterated purpose of Fiance to withdraw its
army trom Mexico, M. Drouyn de Lhuys did so
with an emphasis which showed that the doubts
which had been thrown upon the Emperor's
sood laith in this country had not been without
cllect.
lie thought that when France announced to
the world that ice Hriny should be withdrawn
trom Mexico within a specided time, the assu
rance should be deemed sutlicient. The French
tiovernuieut, he asserted, made its declaration
in good laith, it intends to keep it, an I it means
to withdraw its army within the lime prescribed.
To give to these statements all the lorce that
could come bv iteration, he repeated them again
formally at the close ot the interview with Mr.
Bigelow, and gave a satisfactory explanation of
certain inattets which seemed to throw doubt
over the accuracy ot the original assertion.
We do not see that it is possible for us to
ak anything more than this of tho French Gov
ernment, though we confess we tire not at all
sorry that these latest declaration have been
tailed out trom it. They will not only reassure
the contideuce nithe American people, but will
put a damper on the schemes 01 tue dema
gogues who have been attempting to embroil
this country, on the pretense ot imperial bad
Jaith.
Tne French Minister made still another state
ment on this occasion, 01 no little importance,
in view of the possibility ot Austria making any
attempt in the litture to tend troops, to the
support of Maximilian. In regard to the ship
ment of troops trom Austria, Drouyn de Lhuys
repudiated any responsibility or collusion on
the part of France. "That," said he empnati
cally, "was an affair entirely between that
Government (the Austrian) and the Mexican,
with which Franco had nothing to do." There
is no doubt, we suppose, that there was at one
time something like an understanding between
France and Austria on this subject. The original
purpose of the French Government was to
smooth over the rough tact of its withdrawal
trom Mexico, and modify at least the appear
ance of a total failure in its schemes, by
asslfating in the formation of an army which
should replace its own, and uphold the crown
and empire which France had called into ex
istence. Hut whether owing to the determined protests
of our Government agaiust all foreign interven
tion in Mexican atlairs, and its animosity against
alt the partners in any attempts of the kind, or
whether owing to tne condition of affairs in
Europe which have hrought about dubious
relations between Frince aud Austria, aud
taught one as well as the other the necessity
of husbanding its strength and resources, we
are now definitely assured that France, in with
drawing from Mexico, will not be a partner in,
or responsible for, the action of any other
European power. We receive the assurance
witti satisfaction and pleasure, and shall no
more doubt the good faith of the French Gov
ernment in this mutter than we have done in
reference to its own independent policy.
In view of these renewed assurances of the
Bj.eedy termination of all foreien interlerence
With our "sister Itepublic," it i fitting that both
fJongrcss and the press should refrain from all
nonsense on the subject. It is as easy as it is
silly to talk buncombe, and to indulge in empty
af! routs towards France; but it would better
jicrree with the national credit to exhibit some
thing like sell-respecting diunity iu the matter.
In the meantime, and pending the exit ot the
foreigner from Mexico, the Mexican republican
leaders are bestirring themselves to take advan
tage of tueir new prospects. The trumpets of
the factions are again being heard. We in this
country are nearer to them now than we ever
before have been; lor the lutene interest we
have taken iu Mexican atlairs duriucthe last
lew years, and the anxiety exhibited by our
people to re-establish rxuublican institutions in
Mexico, have given each of its factions a hope
of obtaining our couuieuunce and assistance in
the struggles ot the luture. We have not only
a prominent emissary ot the Imperial Govern
ment, and ltumeru representing Juarez, who
holds on to the Presidency though his term of
ollice has expired, but we have Ortega, the
claimant, and moreover tho legitimate con
stitutional claimant ot the Presidency, and we
have Santa Anna, .the most noted ot Mexteau
leaders, and the most dangerous of Mexican
tactionista.
They carry on their quarrels here, preparatory
to ihcir opportunity ot again renewing them ia
Mexico. Santa Anna has issued an address to
the Mexican nation, tilled with all the peculiari
ties of Mexican jifouunmamentos, though coun
selling unity of action among the people and
their leaders. The response of the othr repre
sentative Mexicans here is in tne shape of
denunciation of Santa Anna as a traitor, and
refusal to take any part with him in any scheme.
Aud so the squabbles of the factious and their
leaders go on, and no glimmerintr of hope ap
peal's arriving at such a slate of things as will
produce peace and freedom for Mexico in the
luture. The foreigner aud his Government de
part, but who and what will take their place ?
The Doty.
From the Tribune,
Gold still flutters between ICO and 180 at 153
on Saturday and no prospect of a fall ! During
the last six weeks we exported f 40,380,322 ! In
other wcrds, we exported $10,000,000 more of
gold than we imported, with calming influences
on the London market perhaps, but with what
influence on America? The premium fluttering
towards 160 must answer.
In the meantime all business seems to bo
chaos chaos with double and single entry.
Prudent merchants find it hard to buy at a safe
commission, or to sell at a safe profit. Shrewd
money dealers reap large gains, and Wall street
once more revels in a war delirium of o-ni.1
gambling. We hear ot combinations to affect

The Scat of the German War.
From the World.
.Now that the "concomltancy of thintrs" makes
it. InBnitely probable that we shall soon bo hear
ing, from beyond the Atlantic, that dismal,
deafening thunder of hostile guns for four loug
years so sadly familiar to us in our own hnmls
phere, It ia desirable that we should form to
ourselves gome definite imaare of the theatre on
which this new and formidable war is about to
be fought out. Discussion as to Its oriirin has
dropped from the order of the day. Behind
Count llismark and his wily ambliion, on the
one tide; behind the Kaiser, Fioncis Joseph,
and his arrogant impatience, on the other, lie
and have been working propulsive forces set in
motion long before either Bismark or Francis
came to the front of power.
These forces have brought about now at lost
the collision which thev have long been pre
paring, and upon that collision the attention of
mankind bids fair, for some months to coaie, to
be concentrated. Its first and most rebounding
shock is likely to occur in Silesia in that
ancient and fpleudid Silesia, over which the
founder of Prussian greatness did such despe
raie battles tor years with t he stoutesr-hearted
eovcrcian, albeit a woman, who ever wielded
the sceptre ol tne Ilapsburgs. Much of what
Carlle says concerning this same Silesia, and
concerning the pprtinacity with which Maria
Theresa clime to it long niter it had b -en trsbly
lost to her, has a bv no means indirect applica
tion to the seciet springs of the course of
Austria at tbe present time.
"It was in Maria Theresa's incurable sorrow
at the loss of S;lesia," says the historian ot
Frederic the Great, "and her uuextinguishable
hope to reconquer if. uiat this and all Fried
rich's other wars had their origin. Twice she
had signed peace with Friednch, and solemnly
ceded Silesia to him; but tnat, too, with the
imperial lady was by no means a tinis to the
business. Not that sac meaut to break her
treaties far from her such a thought in the
conscious form. Practically, she reckoned to
herself, these treaties would' come to be broken,
as treaties do not endure lorever, and then, at
the good moment, she did purpose to be ready.
Silesia back to us : the Prasmatic iianrtion
complete in every point. Was not that our dear
father's will; monition of all our lathers and
their patriotisms and traditionary heroisms;
and, in tact, the behest of gods and men V
This was Austria's way ot Ijokine at Silesia
and the los ot it, a hundred and ten years ago.
All the circumstances attending the political
crisis of the tour iu Europe tend to bring
Austria into the tame way ot looking at Silesia
aud tho loss of it to-day. All liuropo is de
nouncing, aud for ten years past has b;en de
nouncing, treaties as solemn as those which
eave Silesia to Frederick the Great. Austria,
to whom the deliberate will of Europe, in those
preternaturally solemn conclaves of 1814 and
1815, at Vienna, gave Lombardy and Venice,
has been summoned, in all soits ot ways, to
acknowledge herself u sinner and a scandal to
the ape for still holding Venice after havlug
been bombarded mid bayoneted out ot Lom
bardy. If filty years ol possession, then, un ier the
public law of Europe do not consecrate the
Austrian authority in Italy, why should a cen
tury ot possession under the public law of
Europe, the Austrians may fairly ask, consecrate
the Prussian authority in Silesia? In all Ger
many and the lands adjacent, there is no richer
prize of war to be found than this same pro
vince. Inierposed between tne ltussian king
dom of Poland to the northeast aud the Austrian
kingdoms ol Moravia and Bohemia to the south
west, it is richer both in natural resource aud
the developed industry of its inhabitants than
either of its imperial neighbors. Its capital,
Breslau, is the second city of Prussia, both in
wealth and in population. In an urea of but
little more than twice the 6ize ot Massachusetts,
Hiicsia contained, in imbi, a population nearly
equal to that of the frtate ot New ork, making
it the most clei'sely populated ot the eleven
provinces of Prussia, with the exception of
the lthenmh provinces between Cologne and
uonieufz.
The Catholic and tho Protestant elements are
almost exactly balanced within its borders,
while on the point of race the German element
greatly preponderates throughout tho whole
province, tttiuougn in its lour millions ot inhabi
tants are embraced nearly eight hundred thou
sand Poles iu the "Governments" of Oppeln and
n. 1 .1 - A 1.11- iu. 1 m. ,
Diesiau, unti uuoui uny iuuikuuu uioravians in 1
the same distiicts. The western portion of the
p rovince is netted over by a very Cuinplete sys- J
tern of railways, and the manufactures, and esoe- t
cially the woollen and cotton manufactures of j
Silesia hold one of the highest places in the
scale ot continental Industry.
Now, thouth it will be by no means an easy
task ior Austria to w test from ber ambitious
northern neighbor a region so valuable 111 Itself,
aud so important from its position to any power
aspiring alter piedomiuauce in Germany; and
thougn it is fur trom doubtful that Russia, at
least, among the great neutral powers, would
be extremely unwilling to see Austria thrust her
arm so fur toiward towards the centre of
Northern Europe as it would be thrust by the
possession ot Silesia, still it is obvious that
Austria, being actually launched into a tier
manic war, can huve nolhiug belter wortn
striking lor than this magninceut prize. Along
the Irontiers ot Silesia her great "Army of the
North" has been concentrated, three hundred
thousand strong, under the command of ber
most trusted soldier, Field-Marshal Von Beuedek.
To the delunse ol Silesia, Prussia has been
pushiug forward tho finest host she has ever
brought into the field, a host probably not
much, it at all, inferior iu unmoors to the army
it is uesuueu 10 encounter; less iormiaaoie, as
military ctttics tell us, in the element of cav
alry, but much more formidable in thai element
of artillery which has recently become the most
important arm of a national military power.
Between these two grand armies the real and
decisive campaign 01 the coming summer Is
likely to be tought out. The sympathy which
1e felt In Western Europe and In this country
lor the Italians and tho Italian cause, will, ot
course, attract public attention very strongly to
the warlike operations which may take place to
the southward ot tbe Alps.
But whilo we should be the last people in the
world to disparage the valor and the enthusiasm
of the Italian rase, it must be admitted that the
new kingdom ot Victor Emanuel in destined to
play a secondary part in the purely military his
tory of tbe impending struggle, although it may
well be that in the end the attitude and the
necessities of Italy will exert a commanding
and decisive influence upon the political results
of tbe war. And whether the actual outbreak
of hostilities come with a collUion between the
Prussian power on the Baltic and the isolated
Austrian corps of Von Gablenz, now retreating
out of Holatelu; or with a revolutionary explo
sion in Vonetia. Friuli, or the Italian Tyrol, the
war will really begin in dread earnest only when
tbe standards of the llapsbursi and tbe Hohen
zollern shall be dashed tosetuer in battle within
the azure shadows of tbe historical Giant Moun
tains aud upon the verdant plains ot Bilesia.
1 ' The Ivnierr'i Letter. ' ; '
JYm (he Dai t ifcvt. ' i ! ' i
We published yesterday the essential parte (all
that the London papers contain) of a very im
portant letter which Napoleon III. has addressed
to his Minister for Foreign Affairs, and which
was read to (he Corpi Lcglslatit on the 12th
In'tant. In this letter the Emperor tells, with
unwonted plainness, the "plan", which, bad the
conference met, be would have proposed for
maintaining th peace of Europe; and a very
comprehensive aud vastly important "plan" it
wax embracing in Its detail nothing less than
the extension of France to il.c ' Itnlno; the
establishment of better geosriphical boundaries
lor Prussia: the cession of Veneila to Italy;
and the maiu'enance ot Austria's "great posi
tion in Europe" by compensating her with other
territory for the loss ot her Italian prov.nce.
He expresses the belief that France will not
have to draw hersword, but significantly adds:
"No question aftecriua us will be resolved with
out the assent ot France. Confident in her
rieht, and calm 1n her strength, she will con
tinue to observe an attentive neutrality." The
letter seems to have received the unqualified
endorse mcut of the Cors Leglslatit, which,
despite the ctlorts ot M. Thiers and others, re
fused to discuss it by tho decisive vote of 202
to 34.
The Demoralization ot the Present Con
Rices A Change Demanded.
From the Herald.
The present Congress, like the "Praise-God-Barchones
Parliament" of the old English
ltoundheads, is destini d, we fear, to leave be
hind it auy thing but a good reputation. It has
given us all t.ie professions aud pretenses of
piety and patriotism of the old remorseless
Puritan lunntic; but it has also betrayed his
hypocrisy, deceptions, and utteil.y selfish de
signs. Tbe crop-haired Massachusetts conven
ticle, with that peculiar and godly n-vsal twang
of the Pilgrim Fathers, which resolved "First,
that the eaith is the Lord's, and the fulness
thereof; Becondly, that the saints shall inherit
the earth; aud, thirdly aud lastly, that we are
the saints," appear to have faid down the
piatiorm wh.ch the dominant party of this
Congress adopted with their first preliminary
caucus in December last, and seem determined
to die by.
Thus, in, the caucus organization of tho two
hot.ses, a pretty broad issue was raised against
President Johnson aud his Southern restoration
policy before anything was known ot the par
ticular views, measures, and recommendations
embodied in his annual message. Wheu tie
message appeared it commanded universal
resp'ct, ai horne and abroad. Not even the
most implacable radicals could find anything in
it upon w hich to hang an accuauon of treach
ery or bad faith against its author. While
organii-ed aea-nst h.m at firt, and in perfect
contempt ot his labors in the way of Southern
leeoiistruction, the r.uiical majority still flat
tened themselves that, ith skilful handling,
this apparently seli-wilied Tennessee tailor
could bo niore iasily manaired than the mild
but resolute Illinois lail-splitter. But some
inklings lrom the White House on the district
nrpro sutlrage movement first set a roueh
edge on the lecth ot the radicals; and then the
vetoot that Fieedmen's Bureau bill of abomina
t ons swept away their shallow pretenses of
concil ation aud harmony.
From that day to this tiie wrath ot the radicals
ngaiust Mr. Johnson has been manifested on
every available occasion and with srill increas
ing bitierne-s, until at leuuth, as in ihe late
Maine Republican State Convention, as if the
vocabulary H denunciations were exhausted,
ve rind President Johnson and his policy as
completely ignored as (he administration of
John Tyler. The prerene of supporting John
son and Coneress at the same time has simply
been dropped as a game wnich has been played
out.
The violent denunciations of the radicals of
this Congress, however, have done a world of
miscbiel in tne demoralization ot the Republi
cun party in both Houses. What else could bo
expected, when men become sufficiently demo
ralized themselves as representatives of toe
American people, to villi! 3- and denounce lUe
President, in the stvle of "old Thad. Stevens,"
as a usurper who, 11 he had flourished in the
place of Charles the First, of England, would
have met the same fate; or who can deliberately
abuse him by the hour, after the style of Inger
boII, ol Illinois, as "a traitor," "a miserable pre
tender," "a renegade," "a deserter to the
enemy," etc.? Nor is It surprising that from
their abuse of the President (and all of It under
the Speaker's indulgence) thy should turn to
abusing each other, or the opposition members
around them, cr any one else happening to come
in their way. Nor is it to he wondered at that
these billingseate amusements in the House
should lead to tuch disgraceful scenes of per
sonal violence outside as the affair between
Rousseau and Grinnell.
The "barbarism of slavery" befote the Rebel
lion was the scapegoat upon which were packed
all the vicious habits, scenes, and characters
turning up in Congress. Bui now that slavery
is gone and the "slave power" Is unrepresented,
how aie we to account lor the scandalous doings
which now so frequently occur in both houses?
We can furnish only this explanation: That
the dominant party in Congress, like the old
Democratic party in the epoch of its extiemo
corruption and decl ne and tall, has become so
lar demoralized by the spoils, and public plun
der, and lust tor power, as 10 be indifferent to
the rules ot official decorum, and reckless of
the consequences of the means employed to
obtain its euds. Is such a Conaress as 'this to
be respected ( Are such diseracetul scenes as
thos wh ehhave marked this session, especially
In the House of Representatives, to pass unre-
buked by the people? Jt is for the people now
to consider, and it will be lor them to determine
tn the coming Northern State elections.
A new House of Representatives, of new men
fresh trom the people, is greatly needed to checic
the excesses and revolutionary tendencies of
the radicals. It we can bavo no change in the
prevail ng radical ideas of Congress in the inter
val to the next Presidential election, and it is
very probable tht at er it the people will not
be much troubled with election requiring their
ludgment in relerence to the policy of the Gov
ernment or the heir to the next succession.
We must have a revolution at the polls, or we
may look tor a revolution in our system of
Goveran ent, moving it beyond tho reach ot the
people suve at the point of the bayonet.
It is currently reportent that M. Gustavo Dore
has finished the denrus tor an vditiou ot Tenny
son's "'Idyls ot the Kine," which was translated
Into French prose lor bis use. Whether ttiis be
so or not, he is actively at work at an illustrated
edition ol La Fontaine's "Fable," and goes fre
