 PARIs, Saturday afternoon.

 III consequence of fresh instructions re- eeiyed from Washington. Mir. Barton, the : s,saf,se q -ssiaifes oi the United Suites. at < o'clock yesterday afternoon transmitted 10 the Duke de Bfoglea formal application for his passports. The motive ass;onad tor this measure in his official note is simnlv the non-execution of the treaty negociaied Tn Paris in the year 1881, and afterwards duly ratified, for the payment of ihe 2s.- 000,O00 francs, by the French tn American Government, as an indemnity for the spoI- atlons committed on American commerce under Berlin and Milan deerees. In spite ot the serious shape which this question has now assumed, the French authorities seem still 10 treat it with their accustomed iexiiy. They will not believe. or at least affect to discredit, the possibility of a rup- lure between two friendly Powers so long and so intimately allied as are France and the united States, arising cut of paliry question of money. No direct application has yet been nude either n Paris or Wash- lngion for the explanation or apology re- quIred by the amendment of Gen. Valaze on the law oi last session, and it IS very certain that no individual connected with the American Government has ever enter tained the remotest idea of volunteering the concession required, It IS remarkable that the present Government at Washington have, III this recall of Mir. Burton, departed from the precedent which had been estab- llshed Tn 1872 on the occasion of the rup- ture with England. At that period the re- carrence to actual hostilities was preceded. as probably will be now, by the enactment and execution oi non-lntercourse acts, but during the wiioie course of it's endeavors, up to the moment of actual wariarc, the Charge d' Affaires of the two countries re- lnained at their post in London and Wash Ington respectively for the very purpose, as II would appear, ol leaving the door open for eonciliatlon or compromise.

 0n the present occasion 1t is not doubted that M. Pageot, the Secretary of the French Legation at Washington who was left there 1 Ii. 5uretricr with the rank of Charge d. Atlaires, will be instructed by the Govern 1 meat to follow Mir. Barton's example, if he has not already been scnt out of the country 1 by the Presidents orders A non-inter- course act on the part of America, followed 5y rapfsais on the part of France, is consia- cred still more inevitable.

 l The French Government flatter thenese!ses 1 that the people of the United States will suf- l fer nearly as much as Franee under this sys- tenn of qaasi-hostility, and that moreover, 1 they will be much less patient under their want of French wines and French silks, and of q market for their cotton and tobacco, than the people of France will be under corres- bonding disadvantages.

 PARrs, Nov. '.

 Mir. Barton, who has hitherto performed the functions of Charge q Aflaires of the U. ftates, at Paris, decidedly leaves this city on Monday. It is said to be in consequence of the refusal of M. de progle to give satis- factory answer to three proposals which he was commissioned to make him on the part l of his .Nessages.

 l The Constitutional does not consider the step taken by Mir. Barton as indicative of an approaching rupture. It observes that LHe coDsul TOT the u. sotate5 IS to renan at Paris to keep up, as heretofore, the commer- cial relations with France. It seems, in fact that little or no uneasiness prevails in any part of France about a risk of war with the U. States and this probably is be- cause there exists q strong impression that no means will be left untried to avoid q rupture, and that some mod. of adjustment 1 will be devised which may prove equally satisfactory to both sides.

 The fact of MT. Barton, the U. s. Charge d. Affaires at Paris, having demanded his pass- ports of the French government is mentioned in all the papers save the ministerial organs. The Temps states that MT. Barton made his application, in peremptory style, on Friday, alleging the non n-execution of trea- ties on the part of France. The passports were delivered on Saturday, and the Charge q Afaires was to quit Paris on Monday The Temps nevertheless expresses in conf- dence that matters will end in an amicable 1 adjustment.
