Ministry des Affairs* Etraoeres, | Paris, October 15, 1865. j Monsieur le Marquis: Con- j intervention in Mexico, and that this is the only solution to the question. Napo leon must back down and recall his troop* or the Federal Government must recede. Will either do it? Wc think not, but on the contrary believe that an armed conflict between these two powejs is sure to follow at no distant day. What are the feelings of ihc Southern people in regard to Mexican affairs?— The majority of them do not care a bau- bce whether Maximilian, Juurcz or no body rules Mexico, while the minority favors the reign of the fepner. The Government ought to know our senti ments. Wc would have no interest in such a conflict, and would place ourselves, in a ridiculous attitude by forcing repub licanism on Qtbers. Charity begin* at home. Wc know that it is urged by some that a war would increase the polit ical rights of the Southern people, and hence the war party should receive en couragement from us. The first part of the proposition may be true, but if wc advise the letting loose “the dogs of war,” and when the conflict comes fail to extend physical aid, we would he acting the part of hypocrites. Would it not be nobler to tell the Northern people that we have had enough of war—that our property is gone—that we wish a long period of peace in which to recover our losses, and that if they causelessly bring on a war they must fight it out, for wc do not in tend to take any part in it farther than we are compelled to, than to cause them believe that we are anxious for the con flict, and when it comes hold back and tako no part in it? Maximilian, Juarez and the rest of the Mexicans are nothing to us, for we were nothing to them in our hour of trial. If the Mcxicau Republic (so called) were dear to us, wc. confess that wc would feel decidedly sheepish to take arms in our hands to re-establish it, especially when wc think of the treat ment wc arc daily receiving at the hands of the Radicals We have always been taught that consistency was a jewel. We are a citizen or resident in the limits of tho Federal Government now and ever expoct to be, and wc would regret exceed ingly to sec the suffering that would fol low a foreign war bearing upon the South ern people. Our currency would become valueless, our strong men be drafted, and the thousand other evils of war would be felt speedily. A restoration of political rights, now wrongfully withheld, would be a poor compensation for all these No, the hour of the South’s triuqjph has not yet come. As surely as a calm follows a storm in the natural world, so surely will the political commotion of tho hour sub side, followed by tho calm of reason, which briaga the triumph of the right if the passions of men are not again in flamed by war. In peace we triumph, in war wo will find ruin and only ruin.— What care wc for representation in Con gress after all we now have has been swept away by taxation, and we know our future earnings will go the same way?— Our natioua! debt now is as heavy as we cau bear, but if we increase it we are crushed beneath the burden. Ijf the Federal Government suffers harm we are sharers therein. War is its and our ruin, peace its and our triumph. We know Radicalism now holds sway, and we know more that Radicalism fattens nnd flour ishes upon blood—blood shed in war.— V ithhold blood from its tiger tongue and it dies as surely as any living creature j deprived of atmosphere. Madness rules so long as commotion is rife, but madness dies when commotion subsides. We know our cause, the right, will triumph; but error, now wounded. “ writhes in paiu” and ere long will die “amid her worshippers.” Re patient, friend the flames cow March —Mr. Stephens and the Setoj- torship—Election of Supreme Court Judges— Walker,Lyon and Penning— J fog-bat ks, definition of—The sayings of one of them—,4 Threat of a Street One—The Editor of Griffin Star— The Cemetery—A S'range Story— Revenge.—A Warning to Yoon-g Meu — The Penitentiary—Senator Turner facors its Abolition—The Csury Latr Mu.leimxF.tii.lk, Jan. 21,1866.

Wc were pleased to see in our Office on Monday last this gentleman, so exten sively known throughout our State. Al though advanced in years, he is in the enjoyment of good health, has not lost any of his love for the cause of temper ance and could lecture an hour without physical inconvenence. His neighbors have manifested their respect for hint, by organizing, at Palmetto, a Division of thc Sons of Temperance bearing his name. His losses iu thc war havebeen compar atively very heavy.

The lion. Thomas Hardman, Speaker, is aoseut on account ol sickness. Ilis place is temporarily filled by lion. M. Pottle, who was elected over Dr. Ridley by six voles. The presumption is that wc will be here until thc latter part of February or the middle of March. I thiuk it is not certainly known whether lion. A. II. Stephens will suffer his name run for thc Senate or not. The slightest intimation by him that he will or can accept will secure his election. For the short term there are Jim Johnson, Gcu. Gartrcll, Josh llill, Ben Hill and others. Gartrell has many friends aud will make a good race. There is considciable pulling at the wires by old members and politicians. Two attempts have been made to bring on the election, but no go. Up to this time something is in the wind. I think thc breeze is tainted with Jim Johnson and Josh, but we are not willing to gulp them. Two attempts have also been made to bring on the election for Judges of the Supreme Court, which likewise failed.— The candidates are Warner, (who will be elected without doubt,) then Walker, Lyon and Benning. Walker is a new man, with many friends and but little prejudice, if any, against him, while Lyon and Benning are at loggerheads, and when prostrated with their efforts to secure the carcass, Walker, the fox iu this case, will step up and take it off. We have several “hog-backs” in the House. Well, you say, what do you mean by “ hog-backs ?” They arc men who went across the line into Tennessee du ring the war, and there lived until the surrender of our army, and n en who have, like Captain Dulghctty, fought on both sides, (thc Yankee side last), and who have been elected by the skulkers and deserters from both armies. One of these “scurvy” chaps said the other day, when a bill was introduced in thc House depended up«u the United States to facil itate the departure of cur troops If they would adopt toward the Mexican Govern ment an amicable attitude which would aid to the conaolidatioB of order, and people of every State on the American j continent have a right to secure for them selves a Republican Government if they choose, and that interference by foreign States to prevent the enjoyment which we could find motives of security of such institutions, deliberately cstab- • - » • t * i r t a ir_i i • c„i ] • .*i. ar ^s. . .. lished, is wrongful, and in its effect an tagonistical to the free and popular form of goverement existing in the States. We should think it wrong, as for the interests which obliged us to carry arms beyond the Atlantic, we would be ready to adopt without delay thtf^asis of an understanding on this subject with the Cabinet of Washington, aud I wish to make fully known to you now the view* i States, to attempt to subvert, by of the government of his Majesty. What wc a>k of the United States is to be assured that their intention i* not to impede thc consolidation of the new order of things founded in Mexico; and ■ situited on the best guarantee we could receive of their intention would be the recognition of the Emperor Maximilian by the Fed eral Government. Thc American Union should not, it seems to us, be kept back by the difference of institutions, for the United States have official intercourse with all the monarchies of Europe and of thc new world. It is in conformity with their own principles of puhiic law to regard the monarchy es tablished hi Mexico as being, at least, a government de facto, without particular regard to its nature or its origin, which has been consecrated by the suffrage of the people of that country ; and, in thu* acting, the Cabinet of Washington would only be inspired with the same feelings of sympathy which President Johnson expressed recently to the envoy of Brazil, as guiding the policy of the United States toward thc yougcr States of the American Continent. Mexico, it is true, is still oecuprcd at this moment by the French army, and we can readily see that this objection will arise. But the aeknwlcdgctneut of the Emperor Maximilian by the United Sfatcs would, in our opinion, have sufficient in fluence upon the state of thc country to allow us to take into consideration their susceptibilities on this subject; and should thc Cabinet of Washington decide to open diplomatic relations with the Court of Mexico, we would see no diffi culty to enter into an arrangement for the recall of our troops within a reasona ble period of which we would—might consent to fix tho termination. In consequence of the vicinage and immense exteut of the common frontier, the United States are, more than any other power, interested to see their trade with Mexico placed under the safeguard of stipulations in harmony with the mu tual wants of both countries. Wc would most readily offer our good offices to facil itate the conclusion of a commercial treaty, thereby, cementing the political “ rap- iprochement,” the basis of which Hon. L. N. Hutchins has been elected Judge of the Western Circuit of Georgia by a majority of abont four hundred votes. firm ^lui'rtisfinpflts. 1ST otice. PepI'TV fOLLKCTOR'S Okfick ) Ysrrtto States Internai.

I am, sir, the more in clined to hope for such a solution of the difficulty, for the reason that when, at auy time, within the last four years, the ques tion has bcon asked of any American statesman, or even of any American citi zen, what country iu Europe was the one which was the least likely to experience an alienation of the frendship of thc Uni ted States, answer was promptly given, France.
