(From tbe Loudon Times April 11.
By the arrival of the Madras we have received
intelligence from Melborne.to-the 23d of Febru.

account of tbe proceedings tne govornment of

gard to the Confederate war steamer Shenan

actually been seized ytbe authorities, out this
is an exaggeration of tne facts. . " '
In consequence of information comniunicated
to the government it felt justified in placing a
strict guard of police at the slip' on which the
vessel was undergoing repair? to:prevent any
breach of neutrality by the enlistment of Brit

tend to detain the ship, and as soon as her re

THE MEXICAN EKFIRB.
tn tho French Legislative Chambers, April
II, the debate was continued upon the amend
ment to the address deprecating French inter
vention in Mexico, and demanding the recall of
the troops. ' " '
M. Corta demonstrated that the Mexican ar
ray, mere than half composed, of foreigners,
was perfectly able to maintain the monarchy,
but said; Shsuli wo, however, immediately
withdraw our troops ? Evidently not; for .that
would be to abandon our partizans to reaction
and ruin. Such a coarse would dishonor the
flag of France. VTo ehall never be asked to
sacrifice our honor.
M. Picard censured the conduct of the gov
ernment in the Mexican question.
M. Rourcr (Minister of State) refuted the
reproaches of the opposition, and supported the
statements of M. Corta Replying to the appre
tensions manifested by M. Picard relative to
