May 16, lfcB8 8tr: I translate from La France ol last eeninft the following announcement: Tne emfeMkation ol troops ol Austrian jplnnteer for Mexico has been countermanded. Tliose enlisted ha-re been discharged, and the m"jonty ol them Kate been enrolled In the Array of the North." I nppote 1 may consider this paragraph, in a eemU cfflolal pnper. as practical answering the nqniry which 1 addressed to the Minister of foreign Af fairs on Thursday last, and as Anally disposing of What threatened to become an unpleasant coropll cation. Apropos of onr relations with Mexico, and more especially the latest phaie of them, I In. lte your attention to the annexed extracts from the Memorial Diplomatique, eeml-olllclal, and from the Jtbats, mild opposition. General Almonte, who was nppolnted to replace Mr. Hldago at this conrt, as the representative of Mexico, has arrived. I am. sir, with great respect, your obedient ser vant, John Hibbi.ow. Hon. Win. H. Seward, Secretary of State, Wash ington, Ac. Enclosure No. 1 From the Memorial Diplo matique, May 13 According to an American letter published In the Times, the Minister of the United States at Paris recently suggested to the Cabinet of the Tuilleies that, for the purpose or arresting the military reprisals in Mexico, the Juarea government should be Informed or the limit within which the French army of ocenpa tlon should be withdrawn. M. Dronyn IVHuys delivered this overture for the reason that the French government had no means of communica tion with Juarez. At length Mr. Iilgelow offered for this purpose to the Cabinet or the Tuilleries the good offices of his government, near which Is accredited the Juarist agent, M. Romero. It appears from onr information that what there may be of truth in the story relates to the steps formerly taken by the Federal Cabinet to induce France to demand lrora the Mexican government the repeal of certain decrees concerning the Jua rist brlgandnge. These steps, and the recaption which tuev met with from the Minister of Foreign Affairs of France, all this is found at length in the Civil Jauane of lytlO, and we believe that no later ineldents could have changed In this regard Wie role of the Imperial government. Enclosure No. 2 From the Memorial Diploma tique, May 13 According to the information which reaches us from Vienna, the Imperial go vernment has had no difllculty in convincing me that Austria has no Intention to Bend troops to Mexico to re r lace those now there; that the volun teers in question cannot be considered as Austrian soldiers, as it is of their own accord that, after having fulfilled their military obligations in their own country, they enlist in the service of the Em peror Maximilian to form an integral portion of the Mexican army. The proof that this Incident seems to have been settled in a satisfactory manner is that the embarkation of one thousand Aus'rlan volunteers was to take place on the loth of May, Instant, at Trieste, where, since the 7th, the Tarn plco has been lying at anchor, a vessel of the Trans atlantic Company, on board of which they were to fee transported to Vera Cruz. Enclosure No. 3 From the Journal des Debate, Of May 14, 1SG8 We yesterday called attention to the dispatches of Mr. Seward to the Minister of the United States at Vienna, in which the American (Secretary of Sta'e protests against the sending of Austrian volunteers to Mexico, in terms whose earnestness every one can appreciate. The Con etitntionnel thinks it can announce this morning that all difficulties are removed in the matter, and that the explanations given by the Vienna Cabinet have luliy satisfied the Minister of the United Staves, so that a n detachment of one thousand TOlunteers was to embark on the Kith ot May at Trieste lor Mexico To tell the truth, tbe cw.ti tationnel knows nothing of these facts of itself, but gets ihem from tbe Memorial Diplomatique, in which, for onr part, we are far from having abso lute confidence. It may be, after all, that Austria has not thought proper to pay attention to the protest from Wash ington, although she has at this moment affairs enough on hand not to seek for new ones. We shall soon know if it is true that one corps of vol unteers set out three days ago for Vera Oraz. on board the Tampico; but even if this faot were ex act, it would not be enough to prove that an under standing in regard to this question of volunteers exists at present between Austria and the United States. The very categoric language of Mr. Seward permits us to doubt this. We shall wait, therefore, until tbe text of tbe arrangements concluded be tween the two governments 1b made known to us, before we believe it, by the Constitutionnel't leave, Which endorses statements of which it has no proof, except the assertions of the Memorial Diplo matique, which are always to be received with cau tion. MB. vmaioir to urn. waiid. I.BGATION OF THK UNITED . STATES. PARIS, May 31, 1PG0. Sir: I have your dispatch, No. 4 9, marked confidential, and had proposed to discuss its contents to-day with the Minister of Foreign Affairs. His excellency, however, had received a snmmons to tbe palace, which compelled him to terminate his reception of the diplomatic corps abruptly. He remarked, with a smile, as I en tered, that he knew what I came for; that I had a harsh message to him. Am I not right I he asked. I told him that I had been instructed, as he was aware. It seemed to acquaint him with the dis quiet which certain reports in regard to the trans port of fresh troops from different quarters of the world to Mexico had occasioned in the United (States, and 1 expressed my fear that these reports, unless met promptly by some satisfactory assur ances, might develop discussion npon another theatre, imperfectly informed of the actual situa tion and of tbe dispositions of the Imperial go vernment, thereby aggravating the difficulties with which both governments already had to con tend. I then said that as he was called elsewhere I wonld wait upon him at any other more conve nient hour that be would name. He proposed that I should call again on Satur day, at IX P. M. Meantime he wished me to be assured, as he had assured me on several previous occasions, that the troops reported to have sailed for vera cruz were to replace otners whose terms of service had expired, and in numbers less rather than more than were there before. He believed, also, that tbe orders for their shipment were given before the proposed recal 1 of the army was an nounced. Upon all these points he expected to 'have more precise information from the Minister of War to give me on Saturday. As I was going ont, his Excellency repeated what he had often said, that they were but too anxious to withdraw their troops from Mexico. That they would be Withdrawn certainly not later, but probably sooner, than tbe.tl me proposed. I then took my leave, without alluding to tbe other subjects about which I was specially instructed to confer with faira. I am, sir, with great respect, your obedient ser vant, John Bioblow. Hon. William II. Seward, Secretary ot State. MB. HAT TO MB. BEWABD. Legation o thbUkited States, Paris, Ang. 10, 1M6. Sir: There have recently appeared para graphs in the journals of Paris, announcing the contemplated departure from Mexico of the wife of the Archdnke Maximilian. These naturally created some degree of discnsBlon, and comment generally unfavorable to the Imperial cause ot Mexico. To check this injurious line of remark, the Memrial Diplomatique, the organ of the so called Mexican empire in Paris, in its last issue published the following formal announcement: ".We are authorized to contrudict, in the most formal manner, the rumor that tbe Empress of Mexico is on her way to Europe. The same re port was circulated at the time of her Majesty's departure for Yucatan, and it is known that the Emperor Maximilian, on a solemn occasion, de nounced as an infamous calumny the mere suppo sition that either he or his august spouse could ever be false to their duty." Tbe 1'ays, a journal in the same Interest, pub lished on the following day this additional denial of the same rumor: A journal, tormented with the desire of producing sensation news, has men tioned, in reference to Mexico, a completely ab surd rumor, started at Paris by no one knows who, some days ago. There Is not one word of truth or reason in the assertion." Yesterday, to the confu. ion of these positive and indignant friends, tbe i2yAQnHeH?.?rrlJhl tu Paris Aai aliened ut m LJ3 Immediately waited japon by M.

This mission. 5u. cepted by our sovereign with real patriotism, is the greatest proof of abnegation that the Emperor could offer to his new country. We give this Intel jlgenjue that tbe pnbllo may know the reul object of her Majesty's absence. The Princess is accompanied by Mr. Martin Castella, Minister of Foreign Af faire, tbe Comte Del Valle, her Grand Chamber lain, the Comte De Bouchelles, and other officers and attendants. The most unfavorable conclusions are deduced from this visit, especially by those who jr to jutforiuttttte as to hold large amounts 0f tue f Mexican loan. It Is generally regarded as a final effort to obtain, by personal in line nee ana solicita tion, that indlrensableald for the Mexican empire which has been refused to Its accredited diploma tic representative. lam, sir, with great respect, your obedient servant, John Hat, Charge d'Affalres ad i nterem. lion.

Sir: I have the honor to call your alien Hon to two orders of decrees which purport to have been made on the iioih day of July last, ty Prince Maximilian, who claims to be Emperor in Mexico, In which be declares that he has commit ted the direction of the Department of Wr In that country to General Otnont, chief of the staff or the French expeditionary corps, and that he has committed the direction ot the Department of the Treasury to Mr. Frlant, Intendant-ln-chlef of the same corps. The President thinks it proper that the Emperor of France should be informed that tbe assumption of administrative functions at this time by the aforenamed officers of the French expeditionary corps, under the authority ot tbe Prince Maximilian, is not unlikely to be Injurious to good relations between the United States and France, because It is liable to be regarded by the Congress and people of the United States as indi cating a course of proceeding on the part of France Incongruous with the engagement which has been made for the withdrawal of the French expedi tionary corps from that country. Accept, sir, a renewed assurance of my high consideration. William H. Seward, Marquis De Montbolon, ko , etc., eto. Translation with not of August 16 to Montho Ion.

Legation or the United States, Paris, Aug. 17, Ikiiti. Mr: According to a suggestion ot Mr. Bigelow, who is spending some days with his family at Ems, I called yesterday upon the Min ister of Foreign Affairs. I spoke to his Excel lency of the reports which were currently pub lished in the journals of Paris, in reference to the visit of the Princess Charlotte to France, these reports stating that the stay of Maximilian in Mex ico had become conditional npon a modification of the conrse of action adopted by the French gov ernment, and announced in his Excellency's re cent communication to the Marquis de Montholoa and to Mr. Bigelow several journals further inti mating that the Princess bad succeeded in obtain ing a change of that programme. I asked the Min ister if there bad been any modification, or if there were any Intended, of the policy ot the Emperor's government towards Mexico, heretofore declared, and be replied : "There had been no modification of our policy in that matter, and there is to be none. What we annonnced our intention to do we will do." "Of course," he added, "we received the Empress with courtesy and cordiality, but the plan heretofore de termined upon by the Emperor's government will be zouau in the way we announced." I am, sir, With great respaot, your obedient servant, - Joa u Hon. Wm. H. Seward. MB. SEWARD TO MR. BIGELOW. Department o statu, Washington, Aug. 84, 1866. Sir: I transmit herewith for your information copies of tbe President's proclamation of tbe 17th inst., declaring null and void a decree of Prince Maxmilian closing certain ports in Mexico. I am, sir, yonr obedient servant, William H. Seward. John Bigelow, Esq.. too., ko. The next document in order is the proclamation of President Johnson, dated August last, declaring null and void a decree of Prince Maximilian clos ing certain ports in Mexico. MR. SEWARD TO MR. BIGELOW. Extract. Department of State, Washington, October 8, 1866. Sir: Bat tbe point jon mention was not dis tinctly presented to me, naroej Wht ttai, ''? met would ihinh. or mo withdrawal of the whole French a? my in the coming year, instead of its being withdrawn in three semi annual detachments, com mencing next November? What 1-have said is this: That the arrangement proposed by the i-.niperor for a withdrawal of the troops In three detachments, be ginning In November next, was In itself quite likely to be forgotten here in the political excitement which at tetds all Mexican questions, before the exeoution of , iirmnt ahonld heein: that frcauent incidents of various kinds, prevented by the press in Francs and la Mexico as Indicant g a disposition on me pari oi me Eniperrr to depart fiom that engagement, bave un avoidably produced a wide popular mistrust of even the Emperor's sincerity in making the engagement, and cfliiB good faith in fulfilling It. That by circum stances of tbis character this Department was kept continusliy ut dcr an apparent nececsnity of protesting against proceeding which were thns wenkeuing pab llo confidence in its very juBt and well defined expecta tions. That th government, on the contrary, relies with Implicit confidence upon the fulfilment of the Km peror's engagement, at least to the letter, and It has even expected that, overlooking the letter, it would be fulnllod with an earnestness oi spirit woicu wouia hasten Inrtead of retard tbe evacuation ot the French force stn Mexico. ...... At present, however, we are waiting for the begin ning of tbe evacuation. When that beetnniug shall have come tbe government will chesrfully hear aug gentions from any qratter calculated to rsaisare the reiteration of tranquillity, peace, and a constitutional domestic government in Mexico. But until we shall be sole to refer to such a beginning any proceedings toward negotiating would only tend to confound public nninion In the United Htates. and to render the situa tion of Mexioo more complicated. Of course it la un necessary to Inform jou that the speculations which are indulged in by a portion of the public press con cerning relations supposed to be established between this Department and General Santa Anna are without foundation. 1 am, air, your obedient servant, . Wm. H. Seward. To John Bigelow, Ecu., Paris, me. bioelow to mr. seward-fxtract. Legation of the United States, Paris October 13,-Hir: The Marquis de Moustler received the diplo matic body yesterday for the first time, lie aaked If it was trne, as reported in tbe journals, that our ofli clal relations were soon to terminate. Belug informed that it was true, he expressed bis regret to lesru tbat It was as, and bia desire to bave co-operated with me in cultivating friendly relations between our respective ccuntrlea. In reply to a question of mine, he said tbat the policy of bla government toward the Unitel States and Mexico would not nudergo any change in conse quence of the change of his department. His Kxcellenoy then went on to say that be was niilng what leiBuretime bs oonld command to master tbe various American queat;ons with which he bad no previous occasion to make himself familiar, and as soon as he was prepared be would be happy to talk withme or with my successor more at length. Mean tiniebe wiahed me to understand and to roport to yon that be aaw the Kmperor at Biarritz; that his Ma jesty expressed his desire and intention to retire from Mexioo aa toon aa practicable, and withont reference to the period flied in the convention with Maximilian, it' a shorter time will ulHce. Ills Kxcellenoy then went on to say that the dissi dents, according to late reports, are gaining ground, but that it is not the intention of the Kmperor to un dertake new and distant expeditions, but to reduce them. 1 hat there was some talk of retaking Tamploo, but what was decided npon had not yet transpired In Paris, tie said tbe position of France waa a delicate one, and that there waa nothing tbat the Kmperor de sired mors than to dlseuibarase himself of all bia en gagements with Mexico, as soon as he could with dig nity and boner; and that with our aid, upon which he counted, the time might be very much shortened, To tbia I n.ade only the general reply that 1 had no rea son to doubt tbat the future intercourse of the United States with France would be marked by the same frleidly consideration which had characterized It beietotore. 1 did not ask what kind, of aki from the United States he bad in bis mind, presaming it was forbearance, rather than any. active co-operation npon which he ccunttd, 1 mny as well mention, In this connection, that I returned yesterday morning from Biarritz, where 1 was informed by Mr. Feriere, the owner of the ranoo-Mexioe line of stemahipa, tbat the con tract bad been finally signed by his agent at the Minis-: try i lllc for the repatriation of ail the French army iu Mexioo in March next that shall not have returned pretiot ely. The letter advising him of the faot had been received as 1 node, stoodihlm, ouly the day before. Borne of the troop? be said could be repatriated this full , but ail tbe remainder before tbe end of March. 1 have' reason to think be was instructed to make this com ninnioation lo me.

WASHINGTON, D. 0., Oct. il f Wir ; Ton are aware that a friendly anil ex plicit errauaeuiout exists between this government and the i.uipror f Fiance, to the effect that be would withdraw his military foroes from Mexioo In three arts, the first of wutcb ,hall leave Mexico la Novem ber next, the reoout iu March next, and the third in AovenLer, J8c7; sud that upon the evacnatiou being thus completed, tbe French government Will immedi ately come upon the ground tt non-intervention la re- Eara to Mexico which is held bribe t nitud tt. oobts have teen enter'sined and ex preened In nome quaitete o n tne qixstion whether lbs French go vernmeftt will faithfully exeeule this agreement. Jt0 aucbdi ubts bevs b entertained by the President, who has bad rep ated and even recent aanuranoea tht the ecmplete evacuation of Mexioo by the French will t consummated at the period mentioned, or earlier, Ifcompat'bln with climatic, military and other con ditions. There are rrmuda for sues. sing that two incider.tal questions have clos?ly engaged tbe atten tion of the French government, namely ; First. Whether be ahonld not a-'M ne oopiTtore of tbe rrlrce Ma!rn;'iin ,-or ftn(tr. to be mdo be fore tbe withdrawal of the Freich expeJI t'onf Second. Whether It vonld not be oonslatent with (be climMic, military and other conditions before mentiomd, to withdraw the whole mililary expedi tionary force at once, Inatead of retiring it In three parte and at different pei lodur Ho formal communlontion, however, upon tbls sub ject bas teen made by the Kmperor ef the French to tbe government of the United StafnS, When the sub ject hss been inc dentally men'lonevl, this depart- went, vj tue uirrciion oi tne treaiaent, dh replied that the United States await the exe cution of the agreement for evacuation by the French government, at le'st according to Its letter, while Ibey would be gratified if that agreement could be executed with greater promptness and diapatoh than are stipulated. Under these circumstances the Pres'dent expects that within tbe next month (No vember) a portion, at least, of tbe French expedition ary force will retire from Mexioo, and be thinks it not Improbable that the whole expeditionary force may be witbi'rawn at or about the same time. Such an event cannot fall to produce a crisis of great political Interest in the Keputilio of Mexico. It Is Im portant that yon should bs there, within tbe territory of that republic,, or some place near at hand, so at to assume tbe ex'Stntion of your functions as Minister Plenipotentiary of the United States to the Vepublio of Mexico. W bat may be the proceedings of the Prince Msxlniilian In tbe event of a partial or complete evacu ation cf Mexico cf course cannot now be certainly foreseen. What may be the proceedings of Mr. Juarez, the President of the Bepnb'lo of Mexico, in tbe same event, cannot now be oc finitely anticipated. W e are aware of the existence of several political patties In Mexico other than those at the head of which are President Juarez and Prince Maximilian, who entertain coi IlittinH views concerning the most exp dlent and proper mode of restoring pesos, order and civil government in that repnlilto. We do not know what may be the proceedings of these parties in tbe event of the French evacuation. Finally, it is Im possible to Klit yon specific directions for the conduct of your proceeding In the discharge of the bUh trust wblcbtbe government of tbe United states has con fided lo you. Much munt be :eit to your own discre tion, which is tube exercised Becoming to the view y u may take of political movements as they shall diso'ese themselves in the future. There are, bowover, aome principles which, as we think, may be sately laid down In legard to the policy which the government of the United etaten will expect you to purnno. The first of these is that as a repre sentative of the United States yon are accredited to the republican government of Mexioo, of which M. Juarez is President; your communications on such re presentation will be made to him wheresoever he may be, and In no event will you oflioially recognize either the Prince Maximilian, who claims to be Hmreror, or any other person, chief or combination as exercising the exeontive authority In Mexico, withont having first reported at this Department or received instruc tions from the President of the United States. Secondly. Assuming that the French military and naval commanders (hall be engaged in good faith in executing tbe egret ment before mentioned for the evacuation of Mexico, tbe spirit of tbe engagement on cur part in relation to tbat event will forbid the United States and their representatives fr.m obstruct ing or embsrrassing tbe departure of the French. Thirdly What the government of the United States desire in regard to the futue of Mexico is not tbe con quest of Mexico, or any part of it, or the aggrandize ment of the United States by purchases of land or do minion; bnt on the other hand, they desire to see the people of Mexico relievod from all foreign military in tervention, to tbe end that tbey may resume the con ductor their own sllairs, under the existing republi can government, or tucb other form of government as, being left in the enjoyment of perfect liberty, they shall determine to adopt in the exercise of their own tree will and by their own act, withont dictation from any foreign conn try, and of course without dictation from the United States. It results, as a constquence, from these principles, that you will enter into no stipulation with French commanders or with the Friuce Maxi milian, cr with any ether party, which shall have a tendency to conntiract or oppose the administration of President Juarez, or to binder or delay the restora tion of the authority of tne Republic On the othor hand, it may possibly happen that the President of the Republic of Mexico may desire the good offices of the United States, or even some efl'oct Tefi,rooii''ea on onr part to favor and advance the pacification of a country ion auirutad bv foreign, combined with civil war, and thus gain time for the re-establlshment of national authority npon princip'es consistent with a republican and domeatio system of government. It is possible, moreover, tbat some disposition might be made of tbe land and naval forces of tbe United States. Without interfering within the Jurisdiction of Mexico, or violating tbe laws of neutrality, which would be useful in favoring the reatoratlon of law, crder and republican government in that country, rou sre auiuorizoa to cosier upon iuib auujeoi wna he republican government of Mexico and its agents, and also to confer informally, if you find it necessary, with any other parties or agents, should such an ex ceptional conference become absolutely necessary; but not otherwise. You will, by these means, obtain In formation which will be important to tbis govern ment, and such information you will convey to this department, with your suggestions and advice as to any proceedings on our part which can be adopted in conformitv, with the nrlnotptaa whi.-.h have b.n i.-foro laid down. Tou will be content with thus referring any important proposi tions on these subjects of reorganization and restora tion of tbe republican government in Mexioo as may arise to tbis Department, for the information of the President. The General of the United States possesses already discretionary authority as to the location of tbe forces of the United States in the vicinity of Mexi oo. His military experience will enable him to advise you concernir g such questions as may arise during the trsnsiiion stage of Mexico from a state of military Biege by a foreign enemy to a condition of practical Belt-government. At the same time it will be in bis power, being near the scene of action, to issue any orders which may be expedient or necessary for main taining tbe obligations resting npon the United States in regard to rro.eedings npon the borders ol Mexioo. Fcr these reasons be has been requested and in atrccted by tbe President to proceed with you to your destination, and act with you as an adviser reoognized by this depaitment in regard to the matters which bave been herein discussed. After conferring with him you are at liberty to proceed to the city of Chihuahua, or to such other n'ace in Mexico ai uiav be the resi dence of Pretidont Juares; or, in yonr discretion, you will proceed to tny other place iu Mexico not held or occupied at the time ot your arrival by enemies of the republic of Mexico; or you will stop at any place in the United States, or elsewhere. Heir tbe frontier it coist of Mexico, and await there a time to enter any portion of Mexico which shall bere-fterbe in tbe occupation of the republican government of Mexico.

Sir; Ibe Minister of Foreign Aliaira informed me on 1 hn rsdsy last, in reply to a qcealion which cer tain newspaper rumors prompted me To address him, that it was the purpose of the Kmpror to withdraw all bis troops from Mexioo in tbe spring, but none be fore that tune, 1 expressed my surprise and regret at this determination, so distinctly in conflict with the I ledges given by his Excellency's predecessor, M. Touvn de L'Hn) B.botb to yon, through the Marquis De Moutbolon, or.d to myself personally. The Marunis assigned considerations of a purely military charac ter, overlooking or under estimating, as It sceuioJ to me, the importance winch this change might possibly have upon lelationaof peace with the United ststes. My first Impulse was to send blm a note on the follow ing day, anting for a formal statement of tbs Empe ror s. motives for disregarding the stipulations of his Foreign Minister for withdrawal of one detachment or his Mexican army during the ourrent month of November. I cOLCluded, however, that it wou'd be piore satisfactory to the President t'.at I should see the Kniperor himself npon the subject. I acoonliugly waited npon his Mnjeaty yesterday at fct. Oloud, and repented to him what the Marquis lie Monatier bsd told me, ai d deajred to know what, if anything, coubi be done by me to anticipate and prevent the discontent which 1 felt persuaded would ie experienced by my country people if they received Ibis intelligence with out any explanation. I referred to tbe early meeting of Conrress, when uy change In our relations either with France or MsaIco would be likely to come under discussion, snd spy leer that his Men-sty's reae,nt for postponing tbe departure of the first detacument cf bla troops might b attributed to motives which oar people w old be dlBrosed to resent. The Emperor had it ws tUj, concluded to puatptbe the rttcailof ay of hli Irreps or,ttrirhi. bnt then In eto'ns an hahailhaan Influenced by entirely mililary cons rlrrMlnnt tie accordingly sent a telegram tei Mar hl Maattne. ho had alreadv mh.ra i a .lir,enS.iha ai.a.

If he thought he COtJ d sustain hlmaolf there alone, France won d not withdraw ber troops faster than had bmv.i stipulated by M. Dronyn de L'Uhnys, should snch be his desire. But if, on the other band, be was disposed to abdicate which was the conrse bis M"eaty ooon relied blm to pursue Oeneral i aatlenca waa oharewt to find tome government wilb which to treat for the 1 protection of French I, terests, and to bring aH tbe army ho me in tbe spring i eneei nis DiFjestv it tne t resident oi tne unite Pistes hsd been notified of this, and If anything bal been done to prepare his mind for the cbanse in his Msjcsty's policy. lis said that he did not know tbat M. 1'e Monstii r ought to bave bad done so; that as these event) occurred during tbe interim of aohange cf the Minister of Foreign Affairs, it was possible that it had been nesleoicd, though his telegram to Marshal Bszaine was purposely sent In a way to show that there waa nothing in his plan to disgalsa. I remarked that my government was oonstantly nnder the necessity ol protesting against acts dons In the name of his Majesty, and the eflxot of sneb p-o-teats was always t weaken pnbllo oonfidenoe is tbe representations which the government bad felt Itself suthorlr.ed to make In regard to his Majeety1 Inten tions. 1 then explained to him spam, briefly, the grave inconvenlei oi s liable to result from any nnex- Filained departure from the stipulations already given, n his Majesty's name, to tbe world. Ills Majesty replied that we had the telegrapb now, and 'bat any misunderstanding ot that sort might be readily reoifird. bis Majes y appealed to realise the In roitanro of having an understanding with the Pre sident nron tbe subject; and I left with tha tmprese'oo that he intended to occupy himself with tbe mattor at once. Tbe-e Is bnt one snt'ment here about the determi nant n nf France to wash hor bands of Mexioo as soon as poFsitle. Nor have I any doubt that the Fmperor is acting in entire good faith towards us; bnt 1 did not feel snre tbat tbe change In bis plans, npon which 1 have been commenting, wonld receive so favorable an Intori rotation in the United States. In view of recent successes gained by the Imperial ists in Mexico, and in viow of tbe romewbat turbulent state of our politics at borne, I feared that tbe o mrse of the Emperor might possibly awaken suspicions in the I ni ted States which might seriously prrjndioo tbe re'atlons ol the two countries. To prevent anch a ca lamity, if possible, 1 thoutbt it my duty to take the precautions of which 1 ba' e here rendered you an ac count. The fact which the Kmperor admitted In this conversation, that be bad advised Maximilian t abdi cate, bas prepared me to expect every day the an nouncement oi bis abdication; for such advice, in AI sxlmilian's dependent condition, is almost equiva lent to an order. " bat it would be so regarded Is, 1 think, tbe expec tation of the Kmperor, and ample preparations for the early repatriation cf all tbe troops have, 1 believe, already been made by the Ministers ot War and Ma riue. The k mneror stated that he exnected to know tbe final result of Csstlenau 's mission towards the end of this mouth, A telegrem bas appeared In tbe London Star and Post quoting a report circulating In New York on the 6th that Maximilian bad abdicated. As dlspatohes re ceived the 7th made no releience to this report, 1 pre sume It was at least nremature. 1 am, sir, with great respect, yonr obedient servant, JOHN UiGELOW, Bon. Wm. B.

Igive yen aUoa copy or my reply thereto, announcing that this resolution or the French government is unsatis factory to the President. The same papers will inform you that the President does not think it necessary or advisable to modify your instructions. We are not without confidence in anticipating a satisfactory resolution upon the subject from France. 1 am, 4c, 4o,, W.m. H. 6hwaku. Mr. Campbell. MR. S&WARD TO MR, BIGELOW, Department of S tate, Washington, Nov. 23, 1866. Sir: Vour ditpatcb of tbe 8th of November, No. 331, in regard to Mexico, is received. Tour proceedings in your Interview with M. Mons llor, and also your proceedings in y ur Interview with tbe kmperor, are entirely approved, ray to M. Mous tler tbat this government is surprised and effected with deep concern by the announcement now made, for the first timn. vhajltbe nrnm lard recall of one de tschment of the rrencti troowTfoln Mex'oo in No vember current bas been postponed by tbe Emperor. I be embarrassment thna produced is immeasurably increated by the circumstances that this proceeding of tbe Emperor has been taken withont conference with.ard even without notice, to the United States. Tbis government has not in any way afforded rein ft r cements to the Mexicans, as tbe Kmperr seems to assime. and it has known nothing at all of bis coun termanding instructions to Marshal Ba.alne, of which tbe k mperor speaks. We consult only official commu nications to ascertain the purposes and resolutions or Fiance, ss we nake our own purposes and resolu tions known only in the tame manner when she is cou cerned. I am not prepsred to any, and It is now nnneo'siary to discuss . whether the President could or could not have agiwed to tbe Emteror's proposed delay if be hid been seasonably consulted , ai-d if tbe propotitlon had been then put, as the proceeding is now, opo i the ground of military cons derations alone, and if it bad been marked with the customary manifestations of retard to the interests and feelings of the United States. But the Emperor's decision to modify the existing artangemeut without any understanding wiih the Uni ted Slates, so as to leavs the whole French army in Mexico for the present, instead of withdrawing one detachment in November, enrreut, at promised. Is now found in every way inconvenient and exceptionable, We cannot acquiesce; first, because the term "next spring," as appointed for the entire evacuation, is in definite and vague; second, beoause we have no author ity for stating to Congress and to the American people that we bave now a better guarantee for the with drawal of tbe whole expeditionary force in the spring than we have beretofoie had for tbe withdrawal of a part in November; third, In full reliance upon at least a literal performance of the Emperor's existing agree ment, ws bave taken measures, while faailitatlng tbe anticipated French evacuation, to co-operate with the republican government cf Mexico for promoting tbe pacification of tbat conntry, and for the early and complete restoration of the proper constitutional au thority of tbat government. As a part of those measures, Mr'. Campbell, onr newly appointed Minister, attended by Lieut. G.n. bheruan,bas been sent to Mexioo in order to confer with President Jnares on anbjeots which are deeply interesting to the United States and of vital import ance to Mexico. Our policy and measures, thus adopted in full reliance upon the anticipated begin ning of the evacuation of Mexico, were promptly made known to the Frencb legation here, and doubtless vou bave already executed )onr Instructions, by m.klug tbem known to the Kmreror's government in Paris, lbs Emperor will perceive that we cannot now reoill Mr. Campbell, nor can we modify the instructions un der v. hxb be is expected to tteat, and undr which be may even now le treating, with the republican gov ernment of Mexico. Tbat governnent will, of course, most earuettly deeire and confide ntly expect an early and entire discontiunalion oi foreign hostile occupa tion. on will, therefore, state to tbe Emperor's govern ment that the PreBiderLt sincerely hopes and expects that the evacuation of Mexico will be carried into effect with suoh conformity totbeexiat ngarraugement as the inopportune complication which calls lor this dii patch shall allow. Mr. OMupLell will be advised cf that complication. Instruct one will be issued to the United States mili tary forces of observation to await in every case ape cial dliectiona from tbe President. This will be done with a confident expectation tbat the telegraph or mall may seasonably bring as a satisfactory reso lution from tbe Kmperor. You will assure the French government that tbe Uuited Statea, while tbey seek tbe relief of Mexico, dewire nothing more earnestly than to piea-rre pates and friendship with France; n' r does tbe P.estdsut al i low himself to doubt that what has been determined 1 1 France, most inaaplo!only, as we tL'Ink, baa been decided npon Inadvertently, without fa I r fleitlon npon the embarrassment it must produce here a d without any deaigu to retain the s' tenoh expedition ary forces in Mexico beyond tbe full perl jd ol eights n monthi, originally stipulated lor the complete evaoi ailon, lam, sir. yonr obedient servant, , Wm.
