Mr. Soule is in Paris, delayed by illness while purchasing an outfit for his presentation in Madrid. His coat blends civic and military styles with velvet and silk embroidery, similar to early American representatives at Louis XVI's court. Mr. August Belmont in Paris will use a similar outfit at The Hague, resolving Gen. Marcy's dilemma satisfactorily.

The N. Y. Express says Mr. Soule, at last advices, was in Paris, detained by indisposition, and to purchase an outfit for Madrid.—His coat for presentation is represented to us as something between the civic and military cut, the tailor having ingeniously overcome this difficulty by substituting black velvet for simple cloth, and silk embroidery for gold braid. This is nearly the costume of the first representatives of the American Union at the Court of Louis XVI. Mr. August Belmont, who is also at Paris, will doubtless produce the counterpart at the Court of the Hague, and the great problem propounded by Gen. Marcy will be solved to the satisfaction of everybody.
