Alleged Isolation of the Ameri
can Flag. The following txiract
is from a London paper:
Constantinople, Sept. 21. A
circumstance has occurred at
Smyrna which may disturb a little
the renewed harmony between
France ar.d America. Oil the
14ih the American brig Banian,
loaded with Turkish produce for
Boton set sail, and got beyond
the Castle, when she was forcibly
boarded by a Frenrb man-of-war's
boat. An officer and several men.
armed, said they were in search
of two deserters, w hom they sus
pected to be on board, & notwith
standing that Captain Inglee as
sured them, on his word of honor,
that there were no such men on
his ship, the French commenced
a strict search, and, not succeed
ing in finding the deserters, the
officer ordered the American cap
tain to return lo Smyrna. On this
the American hauled down his
ll g, and abandoned the vessel,
and the French brought Iter to an
chor between the Castle and the
town. Captain Inglee then went
"ii shore and made his protest.
Thus the affair remained when the
last accounts left Smyrna. .Mr.
Offley, the United Stales Consul,
is a man who will do his duty,
from which he would not flinch a
hair's breadth, even were his con
sulate rattled about his ears.
Departure of the Mexican En
voy. Signor Uomstiia has em- j
haiUed for Mexico, with all the!
members of the legation. Previ
ous, to his departure he addressed
to our government an exposition
ol his reasons for taking this step,
Irom which we give the following
extract :
'Unhappily the rest has not been
what the undersigned expected.
The note of Mr. Dickens has left
him no more hope. The expla
nations, moreover, which have
been given him in the name of the
president, have shown how little
ciin be looked for, by Mexico, from
the United Stales, since her most
sacred right, her most important
I interests, are thus sacrificed to the
j ikhudow of an imaginary danger,
i Mexico is wronged and insulted
as a measure of precaution.
'Under such painlul circumstan
ces, the undersigned would be
wanting in his duty, ns the repre
sentative of .Mexico, iflie did not
avail himself of the only method
left him to express the pain he feels
at ihe wrongs done his country.
On his ow n responsibility, there
fore, he declares his mission from
this moment terminated.'
fX?The Renewal of our Diplo
matic Intercourse with France is
now complete; Mr. Cass having
gsTie from this country as Minis
ter, and M. Pageot having arrived
here yesterday with bis family in
the Silvie de Grasse, as Charge
d' Affaires until M. Ponlos, the
newly appointed Minister to the
United States who is now in
Brazil; shall reach his destination.
Thus ends all difficulty, and as we
hope all estrangement of feeling
between the United States and
France. A. Y. American.
