To quote the language of the Courier1# correspondent,-"neither war nor outraged dignity, nor dangtr to our commercial relations, is longer thought of. Attention is entirely directed towards the fair amount of the claims." On the 31st .©f January, M. de Rigny proposed that the Chambcas should proceed to consider the project of the law oil Monday, the 2d of February. But Thursday, the 5th, was nJUmateJy'fixed for the preliminary discussion.

Under ths Restoration, in his character of advocate, he presented Jo the Government^ petition for indemnity, which his American client fixed at 75,000 francs. Charles X. refused it for fear of opening the door to these claims. This same claim has been settled by the treaty of 1831, of which Louis Philippe requires the adoption, and the American Government has decided that the individual in question had no right to the repartition of the 25 millions. ,The Minister has undertaken to lay before the Chamber of Deputies all the documents required, bat the printing of which will be very expensive, and almost useless.

From Le Conltitutiontl, Pant, Feb. ®. The New.YoikCommercial Advertiser of the 10th, gives in full the report made to the Senate of the United States, by its Committee of Foreign Relations, and which was read by Mr. Ci»fY.^ The extrenpe length of this document, which occupies no less than seven columns, printed in small characters, will only permit us to give a short analysts of the "part relating to the claims against France. This part, we hasten to say, is extremely pacific, and completely overthrows the President and his message.
ENGLAND.
Strength of the Ministry.—The Morning Post says the feeling of confidence and attachment lo ihe Administration of Sir R. Peel gaint ground and increases with unexampled rajtfdly. Scarcely a day elapses without some fresh manifestations of lb© growing sU-engh of Ihe great body of Conservatives, and additional demon-stration-of feebleness on the part of our factious antagonists. The insolent tone of bluster drops by imperceptible degrees into the querulous accents of complaint.— The loud denunciations of successful hostility are gradually converted into the gentle remonstrances of discomfited opposition. Viewed, then,in every possible and imaginable light, the prospect of "merry England" is brightening. A few weeks more,and the measures of the Ministry of SirR. Peel, combined with the characters of the men composing it, will have earned the supportand approval of all whose support and approval are valuable, and will have exorted even frotai its former opponents the praise and admiration which even they dardnot deny to triumphant honesty, integrity, and ability. The opposition are making active preparations to oppose tbe election of Sir Charles Manners Sutton to the Speaker1*Chair. Mr. Abeicrombie is their candidate, but his friends say he declines canvassing for himself. The Sun cautions the Reformers against the rumor that Sir Charles intended to withdraw, as being "an invention of the enemy,' to throw them off their guard.
It was extensively rumored that the King had made an overture preliminary to Earl Grey, to return again to the government, and thai his Lordship had given conditional assent.

Mr. Peyton having confCrlted Col. Richard M.

He would not go behind his letter to the Post Master General. */',7 He would, retract nothing said iW debate.
The challenge must be withdrawn, or tbe meeting, take place that day. Colonel R. M. Johnson and Mr. Wise then drew up and signed a.statement, that they had heard the remarks of the Hon. Wm.

have seen so much that 1 couidn'Hell you ihe half on't,without detaining Capt. Jumper longer than I lelPd him I would and another thing, I haPntgot time to say all I want to say for our folks at Washington, and that's the most important,
Pritty much as I expected when I got here 1 found Mr. Livingston nigh upon as bad off as tho'he wan't here—but 1 suppose our folks at Washington haVe balanced that account by seein that the French Minister Js treated jist so too—that's what they cali diplomatic Tit for Tat. •5 The first thing I did as soon as I had time to turn round and got on my best riglmentals, was to go right off and see the King, fori always like to begin at Ihe right eend of all matters. St) I took a chap along with me to show me the way—but I couldn't git him further than the outer galg of the "white house" or "artillery house," as they somehow call it, where the king and all the sogers that 1 meet from the gate the front roop no sooner see me, than they givb me ihe salute jist as quick as our folks ol the 2d Brigade. would on trainin days. But when 1 got inside tbe froutdoor, 1 mat a leetle morslefcof a slum* per for a spell.
An amazing perlite erittersaid something to me in French, and made a rale smasher of a bow, and says I, Major Downing at your service—'jist then a parcel of.gineral offcers was commingdown along the hall and one on em no sooner bear^ the name,than up he comes to me, and says he, "Major Downing of the 2d Brigade of Downingville Militia." "Jest so," sayg I and with that he threw his arms right around my neck, and says he, ''Major, 1 never am so happy-as 1 will-, be up to this present moment to see you and who do you think it.was? We'll who should it be but the General, who was so long in our regular sarvice. I didn't know hiri^at first, he was so kivereD all up in rigimentals, but 1 was right glad to see him, and as soon asl tell'd him 1 wanted to see the king, he turned right round to the first chap who spoke to me, and giv him the word—and the name of Major Downing went along up the staircase about the quickest, and 1 arter il —and by the time 1 got where the king was up chamber, in his Cabinet room, I .calklated there warn't a live crittur in the House that didn'l know 1 was there.
The king was surrounded pretty much by the hull scrape ofhis Secretaries, and Majors, and Auditors—and 1 dont know but Post Masters and Contractors,fpr there was a mortal batch on'em—and as soon as I came in Ihey all bo w'd off about as quick as folks used to at hum whenever 1 and the Gineral met to have a talk on most matters.
The king he ri2 up,and put out his hand and gin me a good hearty shake and says he Major Downing, believe me, says he, that next.to the President,there is no man from your country I am so glad to see—and at this particular time says be, I dont know but would rather see j«)u than the President himself, for, says he, it pains me to confess that ever since 1 have been a king, I have never been made tafeel so much like what I was afore 1 was a king, as I have on readin that message the President sent to Congress a spell ago. lie told me however to take a seat, and he sot down too, and with that he began asking all manner of questions, what Congress had done, and what they was going to do, and when 1 left home, and how 1 came, and what office I came in, and seemed to be in quite a under men t, and wound up by asking how the president was, and if he raly was in earnest, for savs be, Major, you have no idea how the Message has astonished the great and generous nation. So soon as I got a chance, I plucked up and we went at it taikin,over the hull matter —the particulars of all wbich I've sent borne to our folks, and if they choose to publish it leant help it, thol shall take care to git out of France before tbe printed account out gits back here* 1 tell'd the king I believe the hull matter was in a nut shell, and if he'd keep his eye out Pd crack it for him.
In the first place, says 1, your folks owe oar folks five millions of dollars jut as clear as though you and 1 had been tradin together for a long spell, and arter tiyiog for a settlement 1 agreed to take leas than I believe yon nwed me,and you gave me yoor noteofhand close the .buuncsA for the sum agreed on. That's the plain English oa'tsays 1. Now you folks baggie and twist about it,am! wont vote the money agreed on, and want to open the matter agin, and our folks never will agree to that in creation. They wont take a cent te*» than five millions of dollars—they'll have

to git it theyll make ai^ttdn oripoile orn, says I. Mr. Livingston found it out says 1, that some.of your opposition Congressmen- would not vat* in favor on't leetng that ^ou was in favor ont, and some Of ttMkm wanted jist to.botheryouyaftd we* was so far off they didnt calkulatiMhie consequences but if the Gineral made il a serious matter,these opposition folka afyours would vote

way -a-here the king
wanted to know how on earthul found this out, but I went on. Well,says 1, ihe
says
Gin
eral saw this in a minit, and so he said jist what he did in the o»easage^—"but sucii a dose Major,"
the king—well, well

the folks after the JPejlncff pose says 1, a little magneshe and chicken broth would do heie, but when* folks get ina tantrum on oursideof the water,nothin short of a rale does of elder barks*tea does any good, particularly if the complant is of long standing. And now* says 1 if any trouble comes' out 1 dent know says I which is most to blame,the complaint or the fissik. The king he looked at me, and then he scratched his head,well says he Major they are both bad enuf but says I one will cure tother to rights I'm sertin. 1 cant stop to miyou now one half of what I said or what the King said, for as I said afore Capt. Jumper is wating, and his last letter to me from .Havre says he cant possibly wait longer than Saturday next as he wants to get home in time to make one run to Cuba, and back to Kenne* bunk afore ploughing time* Whilst my htind is in 1 w'd like to tell you a little a bout this place, but 'tisimposssble —1 keep thinking all the while there is one eternal independence day here—folks are so full of fun an such swords of GallsV The ng has me with turn every day, and makes Gen'lV Bernarde go about with me wherever want lo go and if 1 l^d'nt been so long at Washington, and seen so much there ol Congress and state matters, from the Presi dent down, I'd feel, 1 suppose, more like goin threw my shirt coll«r, thttnJ do at the show of things here. I4 V).
There Congress is in session here, and I dont mean to quit till our buisnessisfinish'cl —b*»t how on earth theiy mannage to understand one another in the House of Representatives I can't tell, for such a chatterin jargon you have no idea ,but arter all the) & manage things pretty slick in one way and I see no other way they could do it—an I I don't know but it is better than our way.
When the Representatives meet, the Resident—answerin to our Speaker, he gives out the buisness to speak about-and then comes a scramble to get up into a kinder pulpit,"br what General Bernard says they call the tribune, and the first one who.gifr therethePVesi^ent calls his name, and he goes at it, readin his speech, pritty much arler lsac Hill'sfashon—«sonf»e groan, atftl some huzza, according to party nolions—if they «it so noUy that the Presi* dent can't hear the speaker, he rings a bell, that quiels'em a spell—byt, if it don't, he rings again if lhat don't quiet'em he gits, up, and arter looking pritty hard, and givin fairwarnin,he rings Ihe third limericks up his black cap, claps it on Ws head, and that's the ednd of that day's work. The house is adjourned jest as completely as though the vote was unanimous* So, you see,laws and ruiesof all countries nre made jest to suit the natur of folks. Now there is no other way in creation to put a step to a noise in a French Congress but to adjourn it, and that can't be done rio how. but for the President to put his «ap on apd walk off—pretty much like the Mineral's Veto.
I shall be home pritty soon arter this— for if 1 don't miss my guess, they are only waiting here to see what our Congress will do. If our Congress says fight, why then they must fight—but if Congress gives them a chance by saying any thing civil, they'll down with the dust, and git out of the scrape about the quickest and it will be a long while afore they or any other nation ^rili alt|ropl $o Jjajbtyjpa&le us again.
You can tell all our folks there ain't goin to be no war with France, unless we begin it,* for I belfevo they'll paj us "the money as soen as they can do so, and git clear .. '-«-l .i
