The Misritrior contains a very important circular
from General Espinases, Minister of the Interior and
Public llskty, to the prefects of France, recom-
mending timm,ln terms which amount to a oommaisti,

In order to stimulate the prefects to
=upon Amity trustees to force them to divest
el of their real property, the Minister of
Public Safety assuss the prefects that the Em-
peror will look with *favourable aye upon sock of
them as may distinguish themselves by contributing
to the sucess of the unsure whab km Majesty has
at heart. Thus the work of centralisation—or, as
moms call it. Socialimn—goss on. The trusters who
may have more enaldento in the broad moss loft by
the founders of charities than ia the paper if a
despouo government, will have mull chasm of
exercising those legal right@ which the circular ad-
mits, while suggesting a variety of indirect molls by
which thoy may be over-ridden.
The Chilons trial concluded yesterday. The pro-
ceedings were uninteresting. The leader of the
inmate of March last wu absent. The public pro-
secutor contended that the accused were enemies of
society, members of the Marianne, and bent upon
pillage. Their counsel struggled against the impu-
tations, denied that there was any legal definition of
a " secret society," and insisted that their clients
were simple-minded people, who had been led astray
by leaders who had escaped. A telegram staters that
the court condemned fleecy to four years' imprison-
ment and 4,000 E Ares ; Tree's, I)ouard, and Pouget
to two years and 100 f.; and Blanc, Catherine, and
Berthaii to one year and 100 f. Three others were
condemned to three months' and three to a fortnight's
im • t. The thirteen others were acquitted.
Rosier, the brother of the Lieutenant
Rosier who was murdered by hie comrade, Lieut. de
Mercy, has died of a brain fever brought on by the
excitement occasioned by the death of his brother
and the trial in which he was a witness. The coin-
cidence of this event, with the commutation of Lieut.
de Mercy's sentence, naturally exciter public atten-
tion at a moment when, with respect to military
crimes, there is so much reason to call to mind the
motto of the Edinburgh Rerun., "Jude: damnatar
cam omens abeolvitur.

The Paris conferences met to-day. In all proba-
bility they did not proceed to business, but the un-
expected result of the Cardwell motion, removing
the difficulty which was grievously felt here as
to the competency of the English cabinet to
treat effectually on behalf of England, makes
iiseibable that the pienipotentiaries will
est to work In earnest. It is rumorred
t t next meeting will be on this day week.
The sitting of today did not take place in the
famous saloon in which the treaty of peace was signed
after the Russian war, but in Count Walewski's
study. With the exception of Count Walewaki, the
president, none of the first plenipotentiaries who met
on the memorable occasion of the termination of the
Crimean war were preeent today. Austria was
represented by Baron Hubner, England by Lord
Cowley, Sardinia by the Marquis de Villanaarina,
Prussia by Count Hatzfeldt, Russia 1, Count His-
meldßaron
(in the place of Brunnow , and Turkey
by Fuad Pacha (instead of Djemil Bey .
The Palris, in announcing the marriage of M.
Roux de Bretagne with Mdlle. Ainsworth, a daugh-
ter of an Eogliah engineer of great celebrity tn
Holland, observes that the legal publication of the
banns of marriage illustrate the efficacy of the
new law on titles, since M. Roux de Bretagne is
described as an miler, a term fallen into disuse in
France, but which is equivalent to " Esquire." The
bride is stated to be a relation of Mr. Harrison
Ainsworth.

M. Haves, the founder of the lithographed political
correspondence bearing his name, which has been
well known in Europe for the 'sat quarter of a cen-
tury, died yesterday at the advanoed age of 76. Reim
sincerely regretted by a large circle of literary ae-
quaintanam.
The Bourse was • trifle firmer. The Rents rose
Sc. for cash, and 10c. for account, closing at 69.73
in each ease. Mobilier fell 1.2 i. There was very
little change in railways.
The Time was seized to-day on account of an
article on Count Migeon's election, the reproduction
of which the censors, with singular Inconsistency,
allowed to pass unmolested in the Sun.
The ones famous Ranelagh, which of late years
hem been in • state of decadence, was opened on
Thursday evening under a new management, the
administration of the Concerts de Paris. The gardens
have been greatly enlarged, and there were " extra
lights" enough to have rejoiced the heart of Mr.
Simpson. An orchestra of 80 musicians led by
Arbon played a concert, after which there was
dancing uof old. It used to be said, as an objec-
tion to Esnelagh, that you had either to walk home
from the Bois de Boulogne after midnight, or to pay
20f. for a carriage, if you mild get one. The ra&
way which puts a girdle round Paris—the chnosios de
fee de censtaire=has altered all this. Trains be-

ierees the Rae Bt. Larare and Ranelagh rua every
ball hour for ten eons there and back.
