ly say "yes," and we cannot understand why Mr. Macfarland should be ignorant of the fact.] Mr. Ambler replied, and in response to a question from Mr. Macfarland, whether England ever refused to pay her debts, and all pecuniary obligations to France, even while engaged in war with that nation? Mr. A. said he had not looked into that question. [As "amicus curiƒ," we sent a note to Mr. Ambler, informing him that McCauley's History of England shows the fact that, pending a war between Enguley's History of England shows the fact that, pending a war between England and France, it was made a penal offence for any corporations or Banks of England to make payments of money to the enemy. Mr. Ambler was thus enabled to reply to Mr. Macfarland, the last-named gentleman being completely dumb-foundered by the unexpected answer.] Mr. Holcomer made an able and very forcible speech, which was listened to with no less attention than interest. After which the Convention adjourned.
Important from France. --We have been furnished with the following extract from a letter (says the Nashville American) from a distinguished officer of the late United States Army, who has just returned from Paris, to his friend in this city. The writer says: The French Government is very favorable to our cause, and are willing to advance $100,000,000 at any time on our cotton. The French Government is at present acting very politically. We may add that the writer of the letter has already resigned his position in the late U. S. Army, and repaired to Richmond to tender his services to President Davis.
d occurred in the same way. The language of Governor Jackson, in his interview with the already notorious Lyon, Commander- in-Chief of the Federal forces in Missouri, has proved prophetic. He offered on the 11th of June, but six days before the Court-House massacre, to sacrifice everything excepting his individual honor "to avert the hourly danger of bloody disturbance." The United States Government has no more right to interfere with the internal affairs of Missouri than with those of France or Ireland; the Constitution distinctly prohibits its doing so; the Legislature of Jefferson City had invested the State Executive with power to drive the ruffianly invaders from the soil; yet Governor Jackson voluntarily offered to break up the State Guard organization, to exclude arms and munitions of war from the State, to repress every insurrectionary movement, to protect citizens of all parties alike, and to maintain strict neutrality in the war between South and North, if General Lyon
ut personality, concise and comprehensive, yet clear and beautiful as a sunbeam, it has been truly said that "if in any country men are born journalists, it is in France; if any tongue be the native language of newspapers, it is the French." The Zouaves of the Pen in Paris are quite equal in their audacity, sprightliness and vigor to those of the bayonet; but, like them, they are only permitted to use their weapons against the common enemies of France. Their rare capacity of making themselves clearly understood by all the world, is not often permitted to be exercised upon subjects which concern the policy of the Government. Of late, however, the more rignd the bright; limpid stream of thought and style, so characteristic of French journalism, has been released from its icy fetters. -- We believe that this relaxation has proved in no degree injurious to the public interests, and that in France, as in England, it is possible that the press may be free without becoming licentious.

We all know as a matter of history that the independence of the thirteen States was secured by the aid and assistance of France. If England and France should now apply precisely the same rule to the Southern Confederation, the North would certainlyFrance should now apply precisely the same rule to the Southern Confederation, the North would certainly have no right to complain. But these threats on the part of a Government which has rebellion and civil war to quell, are utterly idle and fertile. It is the policy of this country to abstain from interference, and if the declaration of centrality egiment. During the Russian war, when the sympathies of the Cabinet at Washington were all with the enemy of England and France, the enlistment of a few wretched Germans within the territory of the United States was considered an offence so grave as, because the time of annexation would surely come, may possibly imagine that by subserviently courting the assistance of France, the inhabitants of the Lower Province may be seduced to disloyalty and insurrection. He will find himself egregiously d
