'Letter from Napoleon the FLrat.
It is supposed that during the recenttrans
ter of the archives of the Department of State
to •the new building on Fourteenth street.
some of the papers may accidentally have
got astray. Among them none could have
been more interesting than the following
characteristic letter of the great Napoleon,of
-which the subjoined is a translation. It is
supposed that the American Minister re
ferred to was the famous joker, Armstrong,
afterwards Secretary of State;
"16,147. Correspondence of Napoleon Ist,
1810.—To M. de Champagny, Duke de Ca
dote, Minister for Foreign Relations at Paris.
PAms,l9thJanuary,lBlo.—MONSlEUß DUKE
CADORE: Yon must see the Minister from
America. It is, beyond all, ridiculous that
he writes of things that one does not com
prehend. I prefer that he should write in
English; but at length, and in a manner that
we can understand.
How is it.that in affairs so important he
contents himself with asking letters of four
lines? Speaking to the Secretary who is
here, speak also to the Secretary who is
about arriving from America. Send by a
courier extraordinary a despatch, in cipher,
to America, to make them understand that
that Government is not represented bare,
that its minister does not understand
French, and is a morose man, with whom
-one cannot deal; that all obstacles would be
removed if we had here an envoy to talk
with. Write in detail on the matter. Let
_sne know what effect the letter from Alten
burgh has bad in the United States; what
has been done, and•what is proposed. Write
to America in such a -manner that the Presi
dent may know what•a fool has been sent

MEMPHIS, Nov. 17.—A special despatch
to the Avalanche, dated at Little Rock to
day, says a resolution introduced in the Le
gislature of Arkansas to reject the constitn
tonal amendment was referred to the Com
mittee on Federal Relations, and there is a
•disposition to treat the matter with great
•deliberation.
In the Presbyterian General Assembly,
- to-day, the reports of the Committee on
:Foreign Missions and Education were read,
.and after/the discussion of the revised book
of discipline a long debate took place
•on that section which defines the relation
-of baptized childred to the discipline of the
-Church. The debate was opened by the
_Rev. Arnold W. Miller, of North Carolina,
in opposition to the proposed change. Era
was followed by the Rev. Dr. Adger, of
-South Carolina, and the Rev. Dr. Baird, of
'Virginia, in favor of the amendment, and
the Rev. Dr. Rice, of Alabama, in opposi
tion. The Rev. Dr. Palmer, of New Or
leans, had the floor at the hour of adjourn
ment.
The Havana Quarantine.
The Consul General at Havana, writes to
'the Department of State, under date of
November 9th, as follows—
" His Excellency, the Governor General,
_has just communicated to this office that
the quarantine regulations have been farther
modified, so that vessels leaving all ports of
the United States, except from Philadelphia
:and New Orleans, for ports in the Island of
.Cuba, with clear bills of health, properly
•endorsed' by the Spanish Consul, and with
out sickness on board during the voyage,
,shall be permitted to enter at once and dis
charge their passengers and cargoes; and
.all .veBsels coming from Philadelphia or
New Orleans, shall be quarantined three
.days for observation.
GENERAL ' CIISTER.—The Detroit Free
_Press contains a spicy letter from J. Logan
Chipman, the defeated Copperhead candi
date for Congress in that District, to Gen.
•Custer, in reply to those written by the lat
ter during the recent canvass. Chipman
says:. "four conversion to the doctrines of
the Philadelphia platform was so sudden,
.so opposed to your views in regard to Texas,
so repugnant to the private opinions enter
tained by you only a few days before your
• change, that I heard it charged, and never
• denied, that your only motive was to win
the President's favor, which, unfortunately
for you, you did win in time to have your
promotion inyour pocket before you turned
.against him by your onslought upon me. I
say unfortunately, because . to-day you
would have been deemed more honorable
by men of all_ parties if you had clung
sturdily to your Radical views, and had
not taught your late Radical brethren to
doubt your stability in the face of tempta
:tion.
