Beside all these disagreements, Paris is en- veloped in the darkest fog ever seen, and [ assure you that the “‘ great city” is far from being a charm- ing place, particularly for one who is fond of pro- menading. The boulevards are as muddy as the bottom of the Jersey swamps, when it is low water and their mud is as greaay as lard oil. Alas! we are condemned for six months to the chilly frimats of our northern France, and for one whose fortune is not lurge enough to keep horses and a carriege the pavement of Paris is far from being agreeable. On Monday last a sort of equinoxial gale raged over the city and was the cause of much damage © the roofs of the houses aud public buildings. ‘The gardens of the Tuilleries and Champs Elysées were also devastated by the storm, and could one have obtained permission to pick up all the wood which had fallen to the ground, he would have made ample provision of fuel for the winter. On Sunday last, the last day of our été dela St. Martin, the sun displayed his most brilliant rays. The public thoroughfares were thronged by a dense population, and any one who observed the animation of ihe people would have been satistied of its quietmess. The sellers of vislets were all along the boulevards and the Champs Elysées, and every passenger was buying a bunch to ornament his button-hole. If one could believe in omens, he would have taken this for a very significant one; for you may remember that violets were the flowers adopted as signals, in 1515, by all the partisans of Napoleon The President, wishing to judge by himself of the eflect produced on the masses by the message of the 11th instant, left the Elysees, on horse- back, in company of M. de Toulougeon, his aid de camp. As @ new Haroun Al Ra- ehid, he mixed with the crowds of visors, ‘without escort, and, though he was not followed by the shouts of Veve Lous Napoleon ! as at Sato- ry and St. Maur, he was received, everywhere, by the utmost friendship and marks of respect. The people seemed to desire to make him understand that his words of peace and faith were universally appreciated. The President has been very ofien, this week to the Thei I saw him at the Grand Opera and at the Italian, where he has a box oa the left side of the proscenium. The exhibition of pictures for 1850 will take place in about a fortnight. The 25th of thus month is the last day designated for the admissioa of che paintings, and it 18 said that more than 2,500 Perry x and statues have already been received atthe Palais National. The provisional building erected for that purpose, in the yard of the Palace, ie well designed for its object; and with the splen- did Sailer of the old Mazarine Maasion, will be sufficient to receive the 5,000 objects of art which will be exposed this year. The architect of this Salon de 1850 is M. de Chabrol, and his devis is well understood, either as to the point de vue of the exhibition or the elegance of the builling. Maay ome will be exposed this year. But, there wiil also many splendid paintings, amoog which, it is said, M. Couture will send his Depart des volow- tatres. There ie much spoken of, ia the artistical world,of the immense statue, in bronze, of Rognet,a young eculptor who recently died at Kome, which is said to be a otefd’euvre. A propos of sculpture, I understand that a_monu- mental statue of Washington on horssback is on the eve of being made in Paris by the celebrated sculptor, Schieunger. The well known English horse Moise (Moses) has been wong, to the con- tinent expressly for that purpose. ore anon on this subject. 1 will soon be able to give you the names of the persons who are at the head of the committee. A mill.on of francs of California gold have been sent to the mint of Paris, where it will be struck ia 20 franc pieces. This amount of metal was re- ceived from San Francisco by two merchants, who have business with that country. A very curious Ly tm has been made by the American packet La Seine, relative toa whirlwind, the eflect of which was to snap off all of her masts. It oceurred on the 30th October last, when the ship was between the forty-fifth degree of latitude and the forty-third of longitude.

In short, that soirée, at which were present the élete of our socie- ty, will Jong be remembered in Paris. At the grand opera, Mme. Viardot has retaken her part of Valentine, in the Haguenots, and was received with the utmost enthusiasm. A new bas 80 singer, named Obin, made his debut in the rile of Moral, end was admitted with all the honors. At the Theatre Frangaise, a new comedy in one act, by Messrs.

The Theatre Historique, it is said, will be chang- ed into a lyrical theatre. I will finieh this letter by naming to you of the capture in Paria, in the rue St. Pierre Montmartre, of a nest of gamblers, among whom a certain Miss Harnel, of Philadelphia, was the most prominent member.

Allclasses of citizens in the United States have a common interest in the salvation of Switzerlaad. It is the cause of France, it is the cause of free iastitu- tions. Its triumph secures progress and liberty here, and ensures the most emple developement of conti- nental relations, with the freemen of America. Its defeat, were it possible, would thrust back Europe to darkness and torpor, and cutoff America, as with a Chinese wall, from ali participation in the great interests, commercial, political and humanitary, which is now offered to their enterprise by a popu- lation of two hundred and fifty millions of people. It is also at the critical moment, when your ships and commerce, and your principles and example, are about to receive their fullest expansion withia the bounds of Christian civilization, preparatory to the conquest of Asia, and Africa, and Oceana. Depend upon it, also, that if the republicans of Europe can be suppressed, by the bayonet, the United States will instantly find herselt the object of open hostili- ty. It will not be sufficient to exclude her over- whelming competition, and her noxious presence from Europe ; she will be in turn attacked and torn in pieces, if that be possible for other than parricidal hands. M. Sotomayer, however, is a native of the United States, aswell as Mr. Rhett. He was bora in Philadelphia, uod may be said to be not only the tounder of the anti-American league, but to have a eon’s nightto take his mother’s life. At London, forseveral months, all the despots of Europe, in aad out of the Theives’ Alliance, have been consulted, and are now united to overthrow the American Union by every possible means. Sotomayer repre- sents Spain at Paris, and his pretext was the inva- sion of Cuba; and his argument, the West India poseessions of the European States and a common danger. Lord Palmerston and Druyer de Lys and Baron Brouon, are united in interest and feeling, with reference to the combined opposition to the United States. The little ; but the braying Tmmes and the cackling Ev- amimer, representing very diflerent politics, have passed around the word that it was necessary for all the potentates of Europe to prescribe cer- tain terme, to be observed by the Uuited States in respect to the most strict neutrality of movements hereatter inthe Gulf. Sotomeyer has even pre- vailed on the French President, a relative by mar- riage of Narvaez, to send the Elser and Magador, | war steamers, to Cuba, to co-operate with Spaia. | Sir Williom Parker, the gentleman who finished | the Briush eseuteheon at Athens, by replacing the lion and unicorn witha tiger and jackass, is at Majorca, junketiog with a set of Spanish officers, belonging to a fleet ia the same harbor.

The Threatened German War. {From the London Leader, Nov. 23) _ The statements from Germany still continue 6f aconflicting nature. One day it is stated that the Bavarian troops, who have been ordered to march to Schleswig- Holstein, to put down the war in the Dutehies, are on their way, and the next mail brings intelligence that Prussia will not consent to the e of the army of intervention through Brunswick, unless guarantees are afforded by the result of the negotiauons which are now pending, that the disputes between the two powers will be settled in a peaceful way. f all accounts it seems clear that the king of Prussia is not willing to go to war, although the nation is perfecily willing. The best authorities tell us that it is impossible that the negotiations now pending between Berlin and Vienna can lead to a satisfactory result. Austria, it is said, cannot, and, perhape, will not, offer honorable terms to Prussia, while the latter can make no concession, to Austria without incurring the risk of a military revolution, and perhaps a dreadful civii war. From military considerations alone, Prussia cannot consent to the passage of the troops of the Bundestag, and if the majority in the Prussian government are permitted to carry out their resolutions, any attempt to force a passage will be met by force. The passage of the army of intervention is one of the points which Austria cannot possibly recede from; and if ever its march is delayed, the negotiations cannot result in peace. This looks as it war were inevitable, and certainly this would be the case if it depended upoa a: other man than the ktng of Prussia. he landwehr of the second class, only one half of which was called out in ebedience to the order of the 6:h instant, has now been wholly summoned to the field. The orders were issued on Wednes- day or (hursday week. The Conservative Unions have prepared an address to the king, praying that he will not consent to any further concessions to Austria. They express a hope that he will not allow the present patriotic opportunity to pass away :— a ihe flame of Prussian nations! enthusissm for the defence of the highest interests of Prussia and Ger- many, once expired, may not a second time be kindled to slike glow. Im conclusion, the unions vietion that his Mejesty will not word of Prussia until the Prossian and (er: d the recurest guarantees lowed to become the vic- tim of the plans just deprecated. Germany looks to the swordot Prussia to set bounds to the progress of derpotiem in the land.” ‘The king of Wurtemberg, true to the principles which he upheld et Bregenz, has applied to the Austrian ars rnment for assistanci inst his own people. The Muister for Foreign Affairs, Herr von Linden, bas been despatched to Vienna to ask for Austrian intervention, the Chambers havii fused to grent the money asked for by the ministry for the purpoee of arming the people against Prus- sie, end the people themselves having shown the ss dissatisfaction at the conduct of their kiog. f war ensues, the King ef Wurtemberg, who is so desirous of returning to a state of ween re ler the house of Hepsburg, will run a good ¢ of losing bis crown. The latest intelligence from Frankfort announces that an armistice is reported to have been con- ciuded for a term ot eight days. The Seventh Prussian Rifles have been advanced from Buttlar Gi , and other villages in the direction of the mn frontier, and the fed of Buttlar has been occupied by the Twelfth (Prussian) Regiment of Foot. The line of demarcation, which, ing to the armistice, separates the two extends rather more to the north, feld, Rosenkirchen, and Hasselstein he: quarters of the Prince of Taxis are still at Fulda, and his troops exiend about eight miles in the rear of that city. To the left they lean on the border of the Grand Duchy of Hesse, and to the right on the Bavarian fronuer, which facilitates their concentration. They have, more- over, occupied all the roads and defiles withia their reach. Threatened Revolution in China (from tne London Chronicle, Nov. 20 } The Uninese rebellion, as we snppose it must now be termed, proves to be a more serious affair than was first imagined. By the last accounts an insurgent army of 50,000 strong had marched with- in 120 miles of Canton. One district town had ee a of oomst nog og ina seige ; the Imperial troops en repulsed with loes: and the Goveraor of the district had fied in dismay to Pekin.

Sarajevo lies under the guns of the en- trenched camp of Goritzka, trembles before him and the insurgents in the neighborhood. This city, with its 60,000 inhabitants, its riches and great commercial stores, is devoted to ruin, unless the deputatien which is now gone to the insurgent camp can buy off the attack. All our troops are con- centrated, and the hospitals are full. The Seras- kiers marched towards Travink, on learning what was going on in Herzegowina, in order to unite with the cavalry there. The Arnauts (for- merly gendarmes,) with Captain Dsutella, who was amnested by the Seraskiers, at their head, have been sent with a division of infantry, under the Pole Dielineki, through the mountain passes after Mostar. Kanas Pacha met them there and was well beaten, wherew Mostar made his subjec- tion through fear. The two sons of the old Vizier Ali Pacha are still at the head of the conspiracy, as is the Pacha of Tusla. The son of the Pacha of Tusla and the Pacha of Zwornik have fled to the Servian territories. Messrs. Baring’s Circular, Lonpox, Fripay, Nov. 22, 1860.
