THE MEXICAN QUESTION. Maximilian and the Mextean Crewn. Nothing decisive i yet known as toto the Archduke Maximilian’s soceptance of the Mexican crown. rumored that the Archduke intended to pay @ visit 0 the Emperor Napoleon at Biarritz. ‘The Parie correspondent of the Londom Times says the Archduke Maximilian’s seceptance is looked upon as cer- tain; indeed it is said that the Emperor, in ap audience ith the Archbishop of Mexico, expreased his io that effect. Thore are persons who believe that the ecceptance was made sure of before tho offer was made. The German Of Vienna, says:— All newspaper aseertions are premature, no definite decision having been come to. Napoicon the Sole Arbiter with Regard to the Mexican Crown. ‘The Asterrichische }, of Vienna, in an article on the election of the Archduke Maximilian, says:-= ‘The acceptance or refusal of the throne is, up to the present, » personal aflair with the Archd' ‘The Aus- trian government has in no way interfered in the ques- tion and taken nopart in the negotiations relative there- » in commanicating directly with the Archduke, aiso maintained this point of view. Negotiations have been opened solely between the two high personages, and not between France and Austria. The conduct of the Emperor haa thus been marked both by courtesy aud loyalty. The situation of Mexico might lead at alater period to differences; but all this is irrelevant so long as the matters have « persoval oharacter apart trom politics.

The Clerical Party in France Alone seers to the Emperoi Policy in lexico. « ‘The Paris correspondent of the Moming Pos: writes that with the exception of the clerical party publie opin- ion in France does not support the policy in reference to Mexico. THE POLISH QUESTION. The French Note to Russia. ‘The Paris Consitutionnel anvoni positively that the French reply to the Russian note had been the firet of the of the three Powers despatched to st.

No Apprehensions of War. ‘The Faris correspondent of the London Times says there was a growing belief in Paris that war was not to be ap- prehended. Whe Poles Promised National Indepen. @ence if They Combine Against the Western Powers. Numerous copies of an appeal of Russian patriots to the Poles, dated from Moscow, ‘Deon widely circulated in Poland. The appeal advises the Poles to desist from a useless struggle, and to unite themselves with Russia ia order to establish the greatness of the Sclavonic races, nd to revenge, themselves upon the Weat, by which Po: land is being betrayed. ‘The appeal finally promises the Poles ap inde;enaent existence.
