VENING STAR. WASHINGTON OITY: FRIDAY AFTERNOON. E> W. M. Mirus, at Fredericksburg, Va., is prepared to furnish subscribers to the Star with their papers early every morning. Per fons wanting the paper will be promptly at- tended to by leaving their names and ad- dresses with him. = A. B. Uwers, No 70 High st., Ports- mouth, Va., will farnish subscribers to the Evemng Star with their papers regularly every morning after it: issue. Be” Jznemian Kivwext, Esq., is appointed our agent for collecting subscriptions to the Daily Evening Star and Weekly Star, in the Siate of Virginia. We commend him to the kind attention of our friends. ——__—_~e-—____ Or TSn MOBNING PEESS The Inte/ligencer says of the Soule affair: “The excitement caused by tue repulse of our Minister, Sir. Soule, has already, in a g cat measure, died away. It will hardly prove a nine days’ wonder. Alittle reflection has showed that the s:opping of our Minister Was not neces:arily an affront tv our Govern- ment; that by the public law the act was quite compaubie with ihe most amicable inter nauoual relations; that it was for the French Government to judge of the propriety of the step, aud that it was personal to the Minister slune. hese considerations, and the general impressiun that it caunot be produotive of any Duisucderstauding between tie two Govern- meuts, hus already . ivested the affair of the intensity of feeling which at the first blush it creaied, Further information may, neverthe- less, give a different a.titude to it.” The same paper thinks that the Union is hard put to ic when it draws consolation from the re-election cf Mr. Daniel Wells, an anti- Nebraska Democrat to Congress, from Wiscon- sin. Tho Union has a short but very powerful articio <n the Soule affair, whorein the trick of exdeavoring to separate Mr. Soule person- ally trom the public capacity in which he is in Europe is expcsed. Upon the plea tuat in France Mr. Soule can only be looked upon as an absconding French subject, the editor dec ares, ia effect, that this Government will Dot acqciesco in it even when attempted to be applied to the humble:t of its adopted citi- zeus. Ihe same papor argues to prove that Seward will have no effective sirength in the next House of Kepresentatives. LBs S: 50 A Work or Great VaLtz.—We have be- fore us an early copy of * The statistical view ot the United States, embracing its territory, population, white, free colored and slaye— moral and social condition, industry, property, aud revenue; the detailed statistics of cities, towLs and counties; being a compendium of the 7th censu-, to which are added the resuits cf every previous census, begining with 1790, in cou.parative tables, with explanatory and illustrative notes, based upon the schedules aud other official sources of information, by J.D. B De Bow, Superintendent of the United States Census. Washington: printed by A. 0. P. Nicholson, public pricter, 1854.” ‘This is the most valuablegvork of the kind ever put fortitin this country. Inasmuch as it embraces ail the census statistical informa- tion likcly to be ugeful to the business man, without the voluminous details which render the original work lately published under Mr. De Low's superintendence, toe cumbersome for general reference, and too expensive to be printed in such numbers as would be neces- easy, DUL for the publication of its condensa- tion now befureus. This is a work of immense labor, evidently requiring in its combination the first order of statistical talent and judg- ment. We predict that before another census is taken, Congress at the demand of their con« sti'uents will order a million of copies of it to be printed for gratuitous circulation. This compendium is an octavo of about four hun- dred pagez. Ee Joe Shillington hag favored us with Sol Smith's * Theatrical Journey-work and Anecdotical Recollections ;” Philadelphia: published by T.

The Refusal Retracted.—The readers Star will find in our telegraphic columns an ; important despatch from New York, wherein they will perceive the gratifying news that the | trench Government have promptly reviewed heir action in the Soule affair. There was no cause given by this Govern- ment—none whatever—for the tone of hos- tility evinced by the French Government in its action to Mr. Soule personally, and in the subsequent interview between Mr. Mason and the French Foreign Affairs’ Minister as re- ported in the newspapers. This fact very naturally caused much indignation among the Americans in France and England, as well as home, in this country, as exemplified by the tone of the American press. The despatch to which we allude above comes, doubtless, upon the strength of some private letter in the Asia’s mails, in which our well informed and ever careful New York telegraphic correspondent places full confi- dence. We, therefore, hasten to say that this prompt reversal of its obnoxious order, reflects the highest credit upon the discretion and friendliness of the French Government, which, as it will be seen, hastened, most honorably, to disavow any intention of insulting the United States, or of seeking a rupture with us, on the moment it became satisfied that it had acted under a misapprehension of the facts involved. We rejoice in this result, inasmuch as noth- ing would have given us greater pain than to be forced to conclude that France had lost her chivalry of bearing as a nation; and because we know of naught that would be more dis- tressing to our country at large, than an inter- ruption of that comity and good understand- ing which, up to this time, has existed without serious interruption between our ancient ally (when her friendship was to us the pearl be- yond price) and the United States of America. Getting their Eyes open.—The readers of Yhe Scar will perceive in the following extracts from the Washington letter of X., in the Bal- timore Suz, a simple reiteration of facts stated long since in the Star. We stood absolutely alone among the press of the country, insisting at that time on the fact that the miscalled congress of American diplomatists was a purely accidental meeting, and also that the business of Mr. Assistant Secretary of State, Mann, had nothing in the world to do with public affairs. We call attention to this verification of our views, published when all the rest of the press of the country were in error upon the subjewt-matter, only by way of illustrating the truth that the Star must be looked to by all who desire to avoid being misled with ref- erence to American public affairs in any quar- ter of the glose. “The talk about the American congreis, lately held at Ostend, in Belgium, (not the Netherlands, as the New York papers have it.) is all moonshine. The meeting was purely ac- cidental. It is not true, as has recently been stated, that a credit of $80,000 was opened with the Barings to carry out the views and purposes of that congress. “Tt is wholly and unequivocally untrue that the late trip of the Assistant Secretary of State, Mr. Mann, was at all connected with diplomacy, and it is equally untrue that he and Mr. Sickles, (Secretary of Legation in London,) had any pusiness entrusted to them relating to the acquisition of Cuba. I incline to the opinion that Mr. Mann was especially enjoined not to open his lips on politscs, and that his visit to Paris was purely of a private character, and for his own individual benefit, (that of his health,) and that, so far from be- ing sent abroad, he merely asked permission to go, which was granted. So all the specula- tions which have been built upon his going aud returning, and all the nice deductions made from it, must necessarily fall to the ground.” The Patent Office.—When Judge Mason, of Lowa, first entered upon the discharge of the duties of Commissioner of Patents, it will be remembered that the newspapers from Maine to Texas were constantly publishing complaints against the bureau, though his immediate predecessor had done much, for the short time he was in office, in the way of breaking down the wide-spread dissatisfaction with that bureau pervading nearly all whe did business with it. It is worthy of remark however, that now sucha thing as a news- paper paragraph complaining of the action of the Patent Office is a thing unheard of. This fact tells the tale of the condition of its business in all its branches. Business was never before done so promptly there, nor was there ever before atime when it was, as at present, done so as apparently to preclude all complaints from parties interested. No question of importance is adjudicated in the Patent Office wherein there are not two parties interested, one for and the other against the decision, be that what it may. Millions, too, are not unfrequently involved in the decisions | ?. of the Commissioner, yet all appear at length to be satisfied with the way in which that functionary disposes of the questions coming before him. Progress of the Mexican Boundary Com- mission on the 24th Oct —Major Emory and party had reached a point 25 miles west of San Antonio on their route to El Paso, where it was expected he would find the Mexican Commissioner. He had received advices from his assistant, who had been sent in advance to that point, however, dated the 10th of Oc- tober, that the Mexican Commissioner had not arrived, and had not been heard from. This fact, taken in connection with previous rumors, that his march was probably inter cepted by the Indians, created some uneasi- ness as to his safety. Our officers are, no doubt, now upon the spot ready to commence the survey of the new line, Navy Officcrs Ordered.—The following Navy officers have been ordered to the slocp-of-war Falmouth, which is preparing at Norfolk for sea.

Fowler, Esq., Mayor Westervelt, and one or two other leading spirits of the Softs of New York, whose faces are short—decidedly short—too short by Jong odds to permit the impression that they entertain the idea that Mr. Seymour may.zot prove to have been elected Governor of New York. These gen tlemen being all among the men of emphasis who threw off their coats to produce the re- cent result in the oity and State of New York, we presume their visit to Washington at this time must be an exceedingly gratifying one to their political friends here, as well us to them: selves—the lions of the day among us % with a cordial reception here.

The latter were led by Anacleto Faveres, and the Government troops were commanded by Col. Francisco Ro- sendo Moreno. The revolu.ionists were com- pletely routed, two hundred were left dead on the field, two pieces of artillery and other arms were captured, and their positions taken. The Government troops then marched toward the town of C'ayuca.
