A. Washington correspondent-of the Boston. Ad-

‘The whole course of the Presideut and Secreta-
ry of State relating tothe Mexican question has con-
vinced all foreign representatives here that both
these officials are bent upoo forcing a difficulty with
Napoleon, Theso ambassadors have, ou the other
hund, no doubt of Napoloon’s siacerity in the with-
drawab of his troops, It has come to light ‘that
more than a year ayo the plan of creating trouble
with France was urged vpoa Mr, Johnaou and &e-
ward by:prominent rebels, they giving the opiviou
that it was the only way of forcing the President's
policy upon Congress, Mr. Johuson retrained at
that time from taking euch a step, though Mr. Seward
urged it, bat both have zoue actively to work in the
matter since the elections. A letter just received iv
semi-official circles from the city of Mexcio, written
after the departure of Campbell and Sherman was
known there, says that Marshal Bazaine stated freely
that thore was no cause to anticipate trouble with the
Freach» authorities from the presence of General
Sherman, so convinced were all there that the Em-
peror was acting in good faith, The principal officers
of the French army, were speaking very highly of
General Sherman's record and seemed pleased at the
idea of eulertaining him. The same letior, speaking
authoritatively from the personal observation of the
writer, states, as a further evidence of the good faith
of the Emperor, that in accordance with orders from
Marshal Bazaine the cesiruction of quantities of
partially worn military material hus begun and the
servineable material wes about ready to be shipped.”

‘The statement that Mr.Sewird and the President
seemed determined to make trduble about the Mexi-
can affair appears to be borne’ out by the fact that
Secretary Seward sent a long despatch to Mr. Biglow
the American minister at Paris, which was read to
Napoleon iv person: This despatch is believed to
have been sent over the cable, and it implicitly re-
quired France to fulfil the agreements she entered
into with regard to the Mexican question. The
Emperor heard the demand iu silent nstonishment ;
butthe Preuch Minister afterwards formally replied
to the note, affirming that France has nothing to
change or retract in her former declarations; that
the orders for the evacuation of Mexico were long
ago given ; that she fulfils ‘all her promises, and,

therefore, considers Mr. Seward's note useless.| season,”

regarding a matter which is already in the way of

the real menaing of the recent steps of Mr. Seward,

There is, no doubt, a very uncomfortable teeling ex-
