A ty has been satisfactorily adjusted by Louis Napoleon's revoking the objectionable order. The papers generally throughout this country viewed the affair as an insult to the U. States, and Mr Buchanan and Mr Mason, our minis ters to England and France, viewed it in the same light. A correspondent of the N. York Herald, writing from Loudon under date of Nov. 3d, says: Don Piatt, Secretary of the United States Legation at Paris, has just come over with despatches for Mr Buchanan in relation to the discourtesy of the French Government to the American Minister to Spain. Louis Napoleon, on last Sunday invited Mr Mason to a private interview at the Palace. In the course of dis cussion, Mr Mason took occasion, with great' firmness, to let his Majesty understand to the full the disastrous consequences of a war with America, and that he had no doubt ou his mind as to the course which the American Minister to Paris should pursue in the premises. That he should at once, without proper expla nations were given by the French court, assume the whole responsibility of the consequences, and ask for his passports. Louis Napoleon seemed as if just awakened to the bearing of American men and things upon European mat ters. His note to Mr Mason, withdraws all objection to Mr Soule's fr.ee passage through France. Louis Napoleon moreover invites Mr Soule to proceed through the Empire on his way to Madrid. It is said that Louis Napoleon has been so fully convinced by the turn this affair has taken, of the impolicy of attempting to put a bridle on a wild Yankee nation, that he has resigned himself to a perfectly amicable behav iour, at least until Se bastopol is really en prise.

C. f "How the Carolinian can pretend that Pierce and Douglas "supported the bill as a measure of justice to the South," in the face of their ovvn declarations of adverse reasons, we cannot understand. Where does it find any such rea son assigned by either of then;: Ou the other hand it must know what Pierce said to Clemens, and what Douglas said in his late speech in Illinois, all of which were utterly hostile to the South. These declarations of Pierce and Doug las have been often stated in this and other papers, and never denied, Does the Carolinian deny their correctness? and if so, upon what authority V Observer. AVe do deny that President Tierce ever said anything to Mr Clemens, or anybody else, that showed hostility to the South, and our authori ty for the denial is Mr Clemens himself. It will be remembered that the Hon. Jere. Clemens, of Alabama, wrote a very indiscreet letter to a paper published in Alabama, in wliich he misrepresented Gen. Pierce by stating that he (Pierce) .held the -Nebraska bill as a northern measure, and expressed surprise at the opposition it met with at the Xorth, and the favor it received at the South. Now Mr Clemens soon found out that he had done the President injustice, for he addressed him an apologetic letter, which we republish for the benefit of the Observer, and all others who have committed the error of charging Franklin Pierce with entertaining inimical feelings to wards the South : Washington, D. C, March 24, 1854. Dear sir : You have called my attention to a late letter of mine to N. Davis, jr., Esq., and particularly to the following sentence: "He expressed great surprise at the opposi tion it met from the North, and equal surprise that the South should bC willing to take it." At the time the conversation to which that sentence alludes tood place, I was walking back wards and forwards across the room, and should not have noticed it if you had not remarked that 3'ou had no concealments upon the subject, and that you were glad I was present to hear it. In my letter to Mr Davis I did not pretend to give your language, except where quotation marks are used; and, from subsequent conversa tion with you, I think it very probable that I misunderstood the purport of your remarks upon this particular point. Your surprise may r have been expressed that the true men of the North should hesitate to vote for Douglas' bill when the South was willing to take it; if I had paid attention to the whole conversation, I doubt not such would have been the impres sion left on my mind. I have never sought a conversation with you upon the subject of the Nebraska bill; but every time I have heard you mention the subject you have uniformly expressed yourself warmly in favor of the principles of the bill, viz: the prin ciple of the right of the people of the Territo ries to regulate the qnestiou of slaver' for them selves a doctrine from which I dissented; and, as I knew we were not at all likely to agree, I sought no discussion of the question. You have assured me always that 'ou thought it best for the whole country, and insisted that patriotic men in both sections ought to take it. I thought the South must be the loser. I think so now. I understood you to place it upon the ground that the principle is right in itself, and, if it works for or against a particular section, no one has a right to complain; that you were for the rights of both sections, and williug to , take any consequences that might follow the practical carrying out of those rights as you understood them. Verv truly, yours, JERE CLEMENS. Gen. Frank Pierge, President U. S. By Telegraph to the Petersburg Express. HIGHLY IMPORTANT FROM EUROPE. Sebastopol a Mass of. Ruins.

A Canadian screw pro peller Steamer arrived here this morning with Liver pool dates to the 7th, being three days later than the Asia's news, which was tnQhe 4th. She reports wheat as having advanced two shillings per piarter. The Russian ships liarc been drawn up close to the quays of Sebastopol under shelter of the batteries; but the allies were preparing to pour red hot shot into them, with the hope that they would be either dislodged or burned. Lord Dunkellen had been made prisoner by the Russians. English accounts say that the Russians have been re pulsed at Balkalava. with a loss of one thousand killed. The very latest states that the attack ou Sebastopol from sea had not been renewed, b'nt the bombardment from the Heights was vigorously prosecuted. Fort Constantine. the Quarantine, and the Southern part of the town had been demolished. The town was ou fire in several different places. A private despatch says Sebastopol has positive! v been captured; that an assault was made on the 3d of November. Other despatches say Sebastopol was a mass of ruins ! Important from Havana.

There are some mat ters still to b3 consummated in regard to the interests of the district, which he desires to see brought to a close. It will be time enough yet for some months to talk about the next term. The election does not come on until August. Mr' Ashe's election as President of the Road does not vacate his seat in Congress. It is not an office under government." New York. After all it appears that Clarke, the whig fusion candidate, is elected Governor having a majority over Seymour of aboot 400.

A. 1ICSKE, Clerk & Master. Nov. 25. 21-Ct Mr Clemens says that the President placed it (the Nebraska bill) "upon the ground that the principle is right in if self " that he was 11 for the rights of both sections." The Observer can't sustain its charge by any conversation the President had with Mr Clemens. The Observer saj's it did not pray for the success of the party alluded to in our last, in whose platform the main plank is to be opposi tion to the Nebraska bill, but that it wished the "effort to save the Union" success. Wc are very willing to give that paper the benefit of its denial, but think the language used in speaking of the "effort" susceptible of the mean ing we put upon it. The Observer says: " But why should we not pray for the suc cess of the party spoken of? It is hostile to the Nebraska bill as a violation of the Mis souri compromise, it is true; but so are nine teen twentieths, if not ninety-nine hundredths, of all the Northern people, of all parties. It does not propose, however, to attempt a repeal of that bill. What it does propose, and which should entitle it to the hearty prayers of all Southern men, is "to oppose all propositions for the fusion of the whig party with any other for the purpose of forming a sectional party, based upon the agitation of the day.' " The reason why the Observer should not pray for the success of the party spoken of is this: If that party is ever organized upon the principle of decided opposition to the Nebraska bill as a violatiou of the Missouri compromise, instead of allaying agitatiou it will certainly be the means of increasing it. What is the cause of the present agitation at the North ? Is it not opposition to the Nebraska bill ? Will the members of this new party be auy better than those northern fanatics who are now threaten ing a dissolution of the Union, if they both act from the same principle, "opposition to the Nebraska bill?" We think not; and we sub mit it to the Observer, would it not be better, if they wish "to save the Union," for them to leave off any expression of opposition to south ern measures ? If, as the Observer says, the new party does not propose to repeal the Ne braska bill, we would like to kuow the use of expressing opposition to it. Ixcreasixg their Prices.
