PARIS, SATURDAY MORNING.

The Moraliser publishes tie monthly returns of
the Bank of France to yesterday, May 14. We give
the most important items, with the corresponding
figures of last month en regard :
May. April.
Coin and bullion, Paris 200,002,642 .... 168,702,216

The principal change shown in this return con-
sists of the enormous inereus of about 2,400,0001. in
the coin and bullion, the total amount of which is

now nearly 17/ millions sterling. The circula-
tion has int:reamed nearly a quarter of a mil-
lion, but the continued languor of French trade
is attested by a fresh reduction of nearly a million
and a half in the hills discounted.

The Moniteur contains a re-assuring article on
the Budget. The revenue for the month of April
shows an augmentation of nearly two millions.

PARIS, FILEDLY EVI2IIIIO.

When Count Migeon, the anti-government can-
didate, was returned for the Haut Rhin, by a large
majority at the last general elections, he was accused
of having abused his personal popularity with the
honest Alsacians, and made them believe that he
was really the favorite of the Emperor, although the
Prefect had chosen to set up a creature of his own
against him. You cannot have forgotten the cir-
cumstances subsequent to the election of his trial at
Colmar. M. Jules Fevre, his counsel on that occa-
sion, made a crushing exposure of the way in which
departmental elections are managed, and brought to
light facts which, though long known to many
people, and suspected by more, had never before been
judicially proved. M. Migeon, acquitted on most of
the charges brought against him, and among others
on that of being a false Count (for he
is a very genuine Count of the Holy
Roman Empire) was convicted of illegally wearing
a decoration, and sentenced to a month's imprison-
ment. He resigned his seat in the Corps Legislatif,
in order to give his constituents an opportunity of
pronouncing their opinion upon his character, and
from his prison he issued an electoral address, which
you have already published. The election begins
the day after to-morrow. The Minister of the In-
terior and Public Safety, resolved th►t there shall
this time be no mistake as to the Emperor's private
wishes, has boldly, but, perhaps, not wisely, raised
an issue upon the question whether the popularity
of the Emperor or that of M. Migeon be the great-
est in the department of the Haut Rhin. The
Aleacien publishes the following most extraordinary
letter addressed to an elector, who, it appears, was
at one time a soldier in the regiment commanded by
General Eepiname, and who had written to him to
inquire for whom he ought to vote :
MINISTRY OF TEE INTERIOR, CABINET Or THE MINISTV/t.

Paris, April 28, 1868.
My deer is the Emperor himself who has desig-
nated M. Kellar-Haas (Count litgeon's opponent) for the
choice of the eledors of the Haut Rhin. This year, as last,
it haa been attempted to deoeive the electors.
The Emperor both reigns and governs.
Nothing good is ever done in Frame without his cenatat,
and if he had preferred M. Mignon, the administration
would never have taken upon itself to patronise any other
candidate.

I suthaise you to show my letter to your haunt Mow-
chimes.

A thousand oompliments. Eerntussn.
It is a onions coincidence that the Siicle, which
alone of all the Paris journals publishes the above
letter, hu the following paragraph immediately
underneath:

The Raid= government has sent Instructions to the pro-
vhictal committees relative to the emancipation of the nark
The news of a battle at Grahovo between the
the Turks and Montenegrins gives additional
interest to the Montenegro question, which is as-
sliming considerable importance. According to
accounts from Vienna the Montenegrins began the
attack, but despatches which are credited here
throw the blame of the encounter upon the Turks.
It is positively stated this evening that two French
frigates bare been ordered to the Adriatic in eon:se-
quence of this affair.
The Oat Deutsche Post of Vienna has the fol-
lowing semi-official paragraph, the importance of
which in the present conjuncture is obvious :
