— the French Yellow Book — the two Omitted letters. [Translated for the Richmond Dispatch.] We give below a translation of two of the letters in the French "Yellow Book," laid before the French Chambers. They have never appeared in an American journal, and are translated by one of the best French scholars in the Confederacy. A very imperfect translation has appeared in the London papers, which by no means conveys the proper sense of the authors: Washington, 21st Nov., 1862. Mr. Minister --Your Excellency knows that the Secretary of State has always shown himself very desirous of procuring cotton for the European market, and that, unfortunately, all his good intentions have hitherto been defeated by the necessities of the war, and by the determination of the Confederates to burn their cotton rather than see it exposed to fall into the hands of the Federal.
