Englieb Opinion of the Ministerial xnd Impe- rial Kpeeches. ‘(From the London News, Dec. 27.] A stranger reading tho speeches made and the comp!li- ments exchanged at the reception of General Dix, the new American Minister, by the Emperor Napoleon, might easily suppose that the relations between France and the United States, were and had leng been cf the most le character. There isnot a trace of po- litical difference between the two governments to be found in the speech of either the Minister or the Sov- ereign—there is not even the atndious reserve which sometimes marks the intercourse betweon States which have po ground of ‘isagreement. The courtesy of General Dix in entire and even exuberant; he is charged to express the best wishes of his government for the En- peror and for France: he has to speak of the good understanding et presen: existing between the twe gov- ernments, and the desire of his countrymen to enterta’ and strengthen the most cordial relations with Fran and if he refera to the past it is only for the purposes of calling up reminiscences of kindneas and good will, The Kmperor, on his part, sees iv these reminiscences a eure gusrantee that no misunderstanding will arise to disturb the friendly intercourse so lony existing between France and the American Union, And all thes is sald, notwith- sanding that th two governments have been for as many yeare eneaged in a strie in whch the self-esteem of exch was committed to a success necessarily humiliat- ing to the other, and althongh only just a month before General Dix’s predecessor bad received from his govern- ment a dospatch so urent that {t was sent at enormous expense through the Atiantrc cable, and so d stastefal to the Emperor that the French government was obliged to deny ali knowledve of |t after st had been publisi.ed in the American and Earopern newspapers, * * * Tf the the Ty on whieh the Emperor Napo- leon acted in 1863 had been sound, the Mexican Empire, vstablished on the firm basis of the natienal interesis and the national will, would have been unussailable in 1865.
