he is altogether mistaken.
TER views we have reiterated on sev

for the performance of that duty, are ful.

Missotut -
THE country has some cause to antici
pate some startling revelations, as to the
inefficiency and lack of integrity shown
in the management of the:Navy Depart
ment under the last administration. Its
Bureau of Construction especially pre
sents now the objective point of a com
mon public suspicion, which investiga
tions are likely to satisfy.
PRESIDENT GRANT is doubly reported
—first, to the effect that he will remove
no incumbent of an office for political
reasons so long as the Tenure-of-Office
Act remains in force7-second, to the ef
fect that he has already resolved to re,
move many office holders in whose cases
only political reasons exist. There is a

ISOrrn CAROLINA is the tenth State to I

THE FRENCH EXODUS FROM
MEXICO.
A remarkable statement, in thg New
York Times of the 10th, completely re
futes the opinion, heretofore acceptedby
the American public, that the exodus
from Mexico of the French expeditionary
force, which had been sent thither by
Nerorx.ox III:, ostensibly for the pur
pose of supporting btAxr.urtiAN in his
pretensions to an Imperial throne, was
the result of the vigorous remonstrances
of Secretary SEWARD against their con
tinuance within the limits of our neigh
boring Eepublic. We need not recall
ihe attention of intelligent readins to the
deep: and just irritation 'which N4ro-
LEON'S flagrant impeachment of our fa
vorite Moratox doCtrine awakened among
our people at that day. As justly, we
regarded this armed intervention, in the
interest of a conspiracy which aimed
avowedly at the restriction of our natural
Republican influence upon this continent,
as sn offensive menace against interna
tional peace. More than that, we were
justified in regarding the French policy
as a standing declaration of the desire of
NAPOLEON to uphold rebel interests with
in these States, if not by a direct partici
pation in an unhappy conflict, at least by
all the moral support which the Confed
eracy might elicit, from a foreign sym
pathy standing armed -at its doors, and
never attempting to disguise its hearty
good-will.
In deference to the situation, whether
that contemplated the peril of an Ameri
can war or merely the difficulties encoun
tered through the obst.nate•hostility of the
Mexicans themselves, the French-Emper
or, at last, seemed to yield to the firm and
significantly menacing remonstrances of
our Government, and, in April '66, offi
cially declared his intention to withdraw
his force from Mexico at the earliest
possible moment. It has been a matter
of real satisfaction to our national pride to
cherish al sincere and apparently just
belief that this decision resulted froze( the
Emperor's fear of a serious complication
with the United. States. Secretary Saw-
ARD'S famous note to Count MONTROLON,
the French Envoy •at Washington, cate
gorically insisting upon the retirement of
the s iroolis, has - always been cited as de
cisive of the issue, and our diplomacy has
naturally plumed itself upon the triumph.
We now learn that the withdrawal of
he French expedition was due, in one
part, to NAPOLEON'S conviction 'that' he
had made a decided mistake as to the
temper of the Mexican people, and as to
the populaiity of the affair with the peo
ple of France, and that, for the rest, all
the • diplomatic , honor in the premises
must be given to Mr. J. W. WEBB, our
own Minister to Brazil. This gentleman,
an early and personal friend of the Em
peror, charged, on his way to Brazil, to
confer with Nano ox relative to the
blockade of our Southern coast, had an
interview with him in July, '62, and re
ported its very favorable result to Pi•esi
dent LINCOLN. In February, '63, at Rio,
he first heard of this Mexican interven
tion, and wrote at once to the Emperor
pointing out his 'mistake. In May, '63,
NAPOLEON replied, in an autograph letter,
confessing the blunder and stating his
resolution to withdraw at the first
practicable moment. That letter was
forwarded from Rio .to Mr. Luicorx.
By request, it was kept a State secret,
but its' assurances were regarded' as
satisfactory. But when JOHNSON came in,
in the autumn of '65 the situation became
again critical. Fortunately, Ck.n. WEBB
was on his way home in October, and was
summoned from London to meet the Em
peror at Bt. Cloud, and there, in a perso
nal conference, the precise details of the
irrangement for withdrawing the troops
were agreed upon, as .afterwards carried
out. It was one stipulation that the agree
ment should remain a State secret with
both governments, until April. '66, when
the Emperor shihuld himself announce it
in the Noniteur, his official organ at
Paris. Arriving home, General WEBB
laid the paper • before the President in
December, '65, and the General was
on the (ith instructed by Mr. BEWABD to
inform the Einperor of its approval by
our Government This practically closed
the affair, yet on the same day, December
6th, Mr. SEWARD wrote, and on the 11th
delivered, the famous threatening letter to
Uount MONTHOLON, which the country
has since accepted as the really effective
solution of the question.
This is certainly a remarkable statement,
but one claiming some credit, since it is
based, by tbe Thies, upon the authority
of General Weans, and upon the orig
inal papers and correspondence. The
inference is that; while the undisguised
sentiment of the American people had its
just weight in influencing Nerour,ox' de-
cision, the final agreement was due, not to
the menaces of our Secretary, but to the
personal intervention of another office'
hitherto unknown in the business, whose
good oft3r.,es co-operated , with the judg
ment of the Emperor himself.
Very naturally, the New York press
receive the Times' article with much dis
trust. The Post says that Appomatox
did the business for NAPOLEON in Mexi
co, but the stiggestion will not account
for the Emperor% acknowledgement Of
his error in '63—two years before. The
Tribune says, "wait and see what Bs,
wsp.n says"—and that remark expresses
a very general public curiosity. Of
course the other journals, ridicule the
Timely for getting ahead of its rivals in
the way of a sensation. And all these
agree that this new version of the Mexi
can affair is only to promote the official
aspiration) of General Wasik = This is

very likely, especially when we remem
ber that the fiction would be altogether
too audacious to do any real service to an
office -seeking politician.
Conversations with the President.
[From the Syracese Journal.
Wesamyrox, March I.—:-On Saturday
evening Representative George W. Ju
lien of Indiana and Gen. D. F. Loan of
Missouri called on Gen. Grant, in pursu
ance of a previous engagement, and had
a long and interesting interview with
him. A friend; to whom the chief points
in the conversation that ensued were nar
rated, furnished me with some points,
which
' I give.
Mr. Julian,' after the usual courtesies,
asked in substance what General Grant's
policy would be as to local appointments.
Mr: Lincoln's rule Was to refer all local
applications for places, such as postmas
ters, collectors, assessors, 6kc., to the
Representative of the District, and accept
his judgment thereon. If it was not in
compatible with the General's ideas of
propriety, he (Mr. Julian) would be glad
to know what rule would be adopted by
the new Administration, as he was in the
receipt of many applications, and if ex
pected to give his views, would like to
have time to examine fairly into each case.
Gen. Grant r: plied at once that, except
in a few cases all over the country, where
he might desire to appoint a personal or
army friend, whose ability, &c., he had
Personal knowledge of, the rule Mr. Lin
coln followed would be his. Represen
tatives were directly responsible to the
people,, and they were. the proper persons
to recommend.
Mr. Julian then remarked: "General,
the case is a little different now. In Mr.
Lincoln's time we had no TenurgotOffice
act; new we shall have- to ddfer to the
Senators more."
Gen. Grant replied, speaking quite de
liberately: "Well, gentlemen, on that
matter I can only say that if the law is
not repealed, I consider myself bound to
enforce it. He had told Senaters, in con
versation on the subject, he was a citizen,
and bound to obey the laws, which he
sliould do. If the law is not repealed, I
shall remove no man from office except
for cause." "Then," remarked Mr. Ju
lian, "the. fact, General, that an office
holder is a Democrat, and has been a
Johnson man, will not in itself be a suffi
cient cause for removal?" "No," was
the emphatic response, "I shalt protect
office-holders who do their duty, whatever
may be their polltics, if the law remains,
against both Executive and Senatorial in
terference. I have said this to Senators,
and the justice of the view was acknowl
edged."
There was a great deal of quiet humor
in the General's manner when he said
that, and he evidently seemed to feel that
he had made a point which would worry
the anxious politicians into repealing the
meddlesome law. A good deal was said
in regard 'to the law, and General Grant
expressed his regret at diffeling with
some of his best friends in the Senate--
mentioning particularly Senator Howe,
of Wisconsin. He seemed also quite con
fident that the law would be repealed by
the Forty-first Congress.
General Logan, who will be remem
bered as one of the strongest advocates of
impeachment, remarked during the con
versation on the Tenure-of-Office act,
that "I did not vote for the law; my poli
cy was to tarn Johnson out."
To this Gen. Grant answered, speak
ing slowly and thoughtfully, "Well, a
good many persons were afraid of im
peachment and of the etfect'of it as a pre
cedent; but," with emphasis, "if they had
known Mr. Johnson as well as I-did they
would not only. have favored' the im
peachment, but seen that it would have
been just the thing that ought to have
been done and made a precedent of."
Grant and Cen. Hancock.
The Hartford Courant has the follow
ing•concerning the personaljelatlons of
Grant and Hancock:
The New Pork World blunders in i ts
haste to make a point against Glen. Grant.
It intimates that Hancock is assigned to
the Department of Dakota in a spirit of
petty 'Vevenge, and evidently supposes
that he is to live in Dakota. It should
have related the fact that after the Tam
many Convention Gen. Grant, against
whom no unkind word or deed against
Hancock is charged, met the latter in the
streets of Washington, and in his usual
good humor gave him a cordial word of
greeting,; which Hancock passed un
noticed; that is, he "cut" the General.
The insult, if tendered while' they were
on duty,.would have subjected Hancock
to court-martial. Instead of viewing the
assignment of Hancock as malicious, the
sarcastic remark ef . The World that it is
"magnanimous" is literally true. The
"Department of Dakota" embraces Min
nesota, Dakota and Montana, with head
quarters at the Pleasant post of Bt. Paul
—the-department from which Gen. Terry
has just been relieved. Gen. Hancock
has been treated with a courtesy and a
consideration that his unofficial conduct
did not merit.
Tin Democrats of Indiana have placed
themselves and the State in an ugly situa.
tioa. The Democratic members of the
Legislature having resigned in order to
.defeat the Constitutional Amendment,
and new elections having been ordered,
it is now arranged that the Democrats
who shall be elected to the vacancies shall
not present their credentials at all, and so
continue to defeat the amendment by
making a quorum of the Legislature un
attainable. This action will leave the
State administration without means of
support, and the pubic institutions,
charitable and other, must be closed for
want of appropriations.
Tun Melbourne Argus, of January 4tk,
states that wild horses have become such
a nuisance in the Orange (N. S. W.)
country that devices for trapping them at
their favorite watefing places are resorted
to. 'Moab branded are impounded to be

These is undoubtedly , a clear majority
now in the Senate in favor of keeping
out Georgia from representation until
she is so reconstructed as to provide for

and to arrest the outrages•on and murder

and necessary decision that .the subject is

Mr. Sam -
Lner has urged J. L. Motley
strongly for England, and believes he
will be appointed. The President said
he should not remove Hale from Madrid

many think Mr. Shellabarger, Of Ohio, is
going there. Cassius M. Clay's resigna
tion of the Russian Ministry has been re
ceived..
The appointment of Hamilto i n Fish is
not received with much enthuiriasm, but
no objections have yet taken shape.
General Rawlins, as Secretary of War,
is a general'snrprise, although !his name
has some times been mentioned in that
connection. It is generally -I supposed
that his appointment is only temporary,
as General Grant has repeatedly declared
that he should not appoint a military man
at the head of the War Departtnerit, nor
a naval officer to the Navy Department.
It is also thought that his feeble health
will not endure the confinement and anx
iety of a Cabinet office.
The nomination of. Confederate Gen
eral Longstreet for the lucrative office of
the Surveyor of Customs in New Orleans
is variously commented on. • The selec
tion is warmly applauded one side and
severely condemned on the other. All
admit it was a brave act on the part of
the President. His confirmation will
meet with strong opposition and provoke
much,discussion. . •

• Peculiar style of wearing the hair, last even
