FRENCH MEDIATIUN. After ligating 21 rounds, most of The Paris correspondent of the N. Y. Times, Writing Nov. 18 says :â€" \Ve begin to see more clearly into the motive of the French proposition for an armistice. The evidence is overwhelm- ing in favour of the supposition that it is a measure ofinternal policy, conceived and elaborated With the view of conciliating the suffering classes of France. When the poor of France suffer thi-y have been taught to look to the Government for relief, and In the present case the Govern- Inrnt has put itself into a pesition which enables it to say: ‘ You see that I have done all I could, your surplus of suffering arises from the arrest of the trade Wllfl America and the blockade of the cotton ports; Iliaye a~ked for the cessation of hostilities and the opening of the blocknd ed ports, but I have not succeeded; the petillellS_ English while appearing to desire this measure, have in fact refused to aid the. The French and English papers are giving the public the Impression that France will not stop where she is lit her efforts t0warils pacification of the bellige- rents in the United States. I learn, on the contrary, that there 15 no lllOlI-élll for the present of pushing matters any further. and that the Government will wait to see what ttirn affairs may take in the United States this winter. One of the friendly papers, however. Is much alarmed at the attitude of the French ~Governinent, and seems to think thatthe only salvation of the United States lies in the continued neutrality of England. «And in this con- neetion it exclaims: ‘ Is it not stra .gc that the sons of Lord North and of Cornwallis should now be forced to stand between the American Republicand the nation which gave birth to Lafayette and Rochanibeatt.’ BAT'I‘Lei‘IELD NEAR FAYeTv‘isvumn. Auto, Dec. 8.â€"â€"Geo. Heron‘s forces en route to reinforce Gen. Blunt. met the enemy yesterday on Crawfmd Prarie, ten miles south of Fayetteville, Ark.

The» enemy flanked Blunt's position at Cave Hill. and made a sudden attack on Gen. Heron to prevent him from uniting with Gen Blunt. Heron’s forces consisted of the 94th and AWilt Illinois, 19th and '~0tli Iowa. 26th Indiana, 20th Wisconsin. and a batallion or two of cavalry, in all 6,500 to 7000 men and 21. pieces of artillery. The battle raged from 10 am. ttll dark, and was desperately fought throughout.â€" Our artillery drew the enemy from two strong positions, and kept their ovvrivltelin~ ing numbers at bay. The 20th \Viscon Sin wgiment captured a rebel battery of four heavy guns, but Were forced to aban- don themuntjyr a Inui‘dcrous fire.

The immense volumes of smoke, however. that rose last evening on the opposite side, above the hille ovorlooking Frederieksburg, and north western direction, detnmistratcd that the presumed retI'Ogade m moment, if made at all was mad.- only to bring them under better shelter in the ravine between the first and second range, and the woods. upon the latter, from the piercing north-west winds prevailing. since day before yester day. The apparent fact of the combined presence of tli‘e'great‘ body of the Con- federate army in front of the right grand division.can be but gratifying to'llen. Burnside for reasons that will be developed in a few days. The range of the Confederate encamp- tnents is in a western direction, having evidently been extended within the last lewdays.

Tin-3 Markham Economist of last week gives further publicity to the fact that the Commissioner of Crown Lands has per~ mitted the priests of the Church of Rome to cxcrcisenn undue control over his ac- tions. in reference to the Indian Lands in the Manitoulin. It is stated that instead of disposing of these lands on coudition of actual settlement, ,Mr. McDougall pro poses to hand them over to the tender mercies ‘of ‘specuhito‘rs. The“; Markham Editor considers This, 1‘ bad._. If true}â€" Surely‘ he has the [means of ascertaining: .. v: The War. Although the season for fighting has nearly passed for this year, still " the great battle of the war,”-which, according to the oracles of the NOrth, was to break the back bone ofthe Rebellion is yet' un- fought. The Confederates continue to fortify their position at: Fredericksburg. and seem determined to dispute every inch of ground with their enemies. “ Stonewall” Jackson, with something like 40,000 men, is known to be somewhere Within a certain circuit, but his exact whereabouts it is quite impossible to determine. By last accounts he was 5311010 be north of the Rappahannock. Although ‘ scouts are actively engaged,and Southern officers are reported {to be constantly de- serting to the Northern ranks, still the po- sition of this ubiquitous general cannot be known for twenty four hours together.â€" Very little fighting has been done within the past week, but some decisive action is spies and daily expected. #04”..â€" Vaughau Agricultural Society.

BANKER Loses NEARLY $10,000.» We hear of a financial trans- action at Buffalo which has not yet appear- ed in print, which exhibits an ainountof coolness which we have never known equalled; Aslhe story goes. a rough look- ing man, dressed like a farmer, appeared a few mornings since'at a banking office in Buffalo,-and stated; that he had lately been over in Canada to purchase a lot ofcattle, biit found the prices so high that be con- cluded not toporchasc. He had a lot of Canada currency, and he heard that there was eight or ten per cent premium on Canada money in Buffalo. If such was the case, he'wo'uld like to di9p03e of what he had by him. The banker said there was a slzght premium on Canada currency, and he would pay twelve per cent. for what the cattle buyer had". The farther replied that he‘was biting rather sharp for his money, and he ‘ gnessed’ he had better go out and-tsee if he could not sell his mo- ney at better rates. The banker said. as the man was going, that he might look around, but be “cold payhlm as much as any one. and? the unsophisticated country- man departied. He soon returned, and stated that he had been offered fifteen-pet“ cent - premium: on his pile of $8,000; but as he had offered it to them first. be had brought it back. ‘ \Vell, said the banker, ‘ l°will giVe you sixteen per cent: advance for your money.’ The bargain- was concluded, and the banker counted out $9,280 for the $8,000, which appeared to be a new issue on an interior Canadian bank. The pretended d‘rover. who was a sharper in disguise. left with his ‘ pile,’ and the unfortunate banker soon found that he had been duped, and that the whole $8,000“ were in neatlyexecutcd counterletts, and that he had been the victim of a huge‘ swindle. I AMERICAN CURTENCY. The Montreal Commercial Advertiser of Monday last says:â€" “The Past Office will. on and after to- day, receive American-silver at tile rate of» 960 per dollar, in" halves and‘ quarters. and dimes at nine cents. It Will be well for'tlie public generally to admit the same‘ arrangement, and thus put an end tor the influx Ofdcteriorated coin circulating above l its actual and bankabe value.’ i It has now become evident that the merchants will have to adOpt some plan to secure themselves from the loss arising. out of the plethora or American silt €11.”- lntrinsicnlly, it is worth only 97c in the" dollar, and the sooner the merchants agree (0 follow the plan adOpted by the Mon- treal Post Office, the better it will be for themselves. \Vho will move in the Inuitâ€" ; [mlâ€"Leader. ‘ l BOILED IN A Lvn VAI‘ Iv Mox- TltEAt..--â€"â€"'l‘ltc :Vlontrcal I'Icrufd says ° r *A young man. a native of Sligo, named John CarsOn, employed in Mr: Andre“t Hood's soap and- e::=ndle iuztnulactory. fell into a vat of boiling lye on Wedm;sday lost. He ivaswithgreat difficulty removed from the vat. and was peifectly conscious from the time of the accnlent until his death, but his sufferings was ft'iglttfuli; in fact no words could dese:ibc the agony he must have endured.

BAoK.-â€"â€"'l‘lie agricul-~ lurid statistics of Ireland,just published for the current year,slmw a decrease in the live stock of the country since 1861 by- nearly l10.000 horses, 220,000. cattle, and- 100,000. sheep. Pigs have increased 500.000. The Value of tlse live stock is- Ion the whole less by £11 $00,000.- This is attributed to- the'distress consequent on: scarcity, which has induced: excessive sales.

The position of the 'Frcnch at Vera» Cruz and Orizaba is represented to be very critical, having no fodder for cattle, nor fresh food for the troops, who suffen from dysentery. The force from Jalavpa; had been cut off front supplies from Vera Cruz, by the Mexicans retaking I’meiite National, a part ofwlitcli l'iasbeen destroy; ed. The Mexicans were actively fortifyv ing Pnebla and the city of Mexico, and. the road between them. and announce their determination to flood the valley by opening the sluices and taking down the walls of the lakes, rendering the City of Mexico impossible to be reached except. by turnpikes, which will be defended. I Gen. Sherman, Federal Commander at Memphis, has addressed a communication to the Mayor and Council of that city, recommending them, instead of shinplasâ€" ters, to use cotton as currency, :1 pound of it being werth 50 cents. He advises them to set to work and put tip cotton/A to be used for that purpose in little parcels- of five, ten, twenty-five and fifty cents. MARRIED. By the Rev. H. J. Grasett. B.
