Speech from a Consul.

--The French residents of Mobile, Ala., last week presented M. Portz, the French Vice- Consul there, with a cane. In a little speech acknowledging the compliment, the Mobile Tribune says that--

‘ He regretted that the South had not yet been recognized by his Government, but from his full conviction that France would always be found in support of a rightful cause, he was satisfied that this act of justice would not be long delayed; and that this hope was now stronger than ever in his mind, from the tenor of his recent advices.
