A MEETING Of Conservatives was
held in Paris, France. yesterday.
About sixty persons were in atten-
dance and a very confident feeling Is
said to have prevailed. It was claim
ed by some Of the speakers that there
would be a majority Of twenty In IA
vor Of restoring the monarchy at the
next session OF the Assembly. The
Republican members Of the Assembly,
whose fears have been aroused BY the
movements of the monarshists, pur-
pose when the Assembly meets to In
troduce a declaration against tho In
Judgement OF popular sovereignty,
and to resign their seats If the reso-
luton fails to pass. We may. thcre-
fore, expect to hear Of lively doings
in the Assembly when 1t meets.
The University Of California COM
menced Its fifth year yesterday, in the
new and spacious buildings provided
BY the State at Berkeley. Fifty-six
new students have applied for admis-
sion, and most OF the former students
have returned. The opening exercises
consisted Of prayers by ex-President
Durant, an address on the part Of the
faculty by President Gilman, and an
address on the part Of the Regents BY
the Rev. DR.. Stebbins. A large rs.
sembly Of ladies and gentlemen was
present.
AN Irrepressible ~statlst, who has
been investigating the annual con-
sumption Of coffee per head In various
parts Of the world, finds that the con-
sumption averages, In England, ~
pounds to each person ; France, az;
Germany, 4; Denmark. So; Switzer-
land, 6 Belgium, 81 Holland, 10I;
United States, 7 pounds; but In Cali
fornia which appears to be ahead In so

IT has been the popular belief that
the authorship Of the back pay swindle
belongs exclusively to Gen. Butler.
but 1t seems that such Is not the case.
Tho Boston T'rareiler. with the most ad-
eral Butler, though opposed to the bill
mirable GOODNESS, remarks that 'Gen-
when first introduced, had yielded to
the opportunities Of men to whom the
advance was really a matter OF much
importance, and taken m active part
In securing Its passage. and his oppo-
nents In this State, ignoring their own
records, were quick to avail themselves
of this weapon OF warfare against
him." The spectacle Of such an inno-
cent and unsophlsticated man as the
claimant being led by wicked men In
to the trap which ruined him is enough
to move the sympathies of the hardest
heart. The General was altogether
too self.sacrifcing.

The financial panic has affected to
some extent nearly all the Eastern
cities. In some places the banks have
resolved not to pay currency on checks
above the amount OF 800, but to Ger
tify the checks presented, and use
them rs currency. It has been ru-
mored that the Secretary Of the Treas
ury gave It as his opinion that all
National Banks should temporarily
suspend payments in currency, but the
story is not authentic. The probabili-
ties are that no more bonds will be
purchased, and that all the relief which
the Government intends or in fact has
any legal right to grant, has been al.
forded. The rumor circulated yester-
day that President Grant would call
an extra session Of Congress, Is doubt
less without the slightest foundation ;
indeed It would be \ marvellous pro-
ceeding II the disastrous speculations
Of q few firms who were overloaded
with unstable railroad securities,
should be held Of such Importance to
the whole nation rs to require the ao-
ton Of and expense attending an
extra session Of Congress. The fact
Is that;all banks which are doing a le-
climate business will get out all right,
t6oagh they may be temporarily dis
abied. Those speculative institutions
which having little capital Of their
own, have used all their depositors
money in floating gigantic and at pre-
sent uncalled for railroad enterprises,
will 60 down. From the ruins OF such
let us hope a legitimate and honorable
business will arise. There Il no lack
Of currency in the United States. The
distrust Of small depOsitors awakened
10y the developments made BY Jay
Cooke & Co.'S failure, and the knowl-
edge Of the kind Of securities upon
which the banks had loaned their mon
eys, have conspired to produce run
upon the most prominent banking In
situations, and to lock up a large
amount Of currency. As soon as con-
fidsnce Is restored, rs soon as all the
bubbles burst, and Legitimate business
institutions show their stability, mon-
ey will be ~redeposited and the market
mado easy. II the present panic
serves to place business upon a better
foundation, to check speculation In
schemes which have absolutely no
merit whatever. and to establish a
healthier tone in financial ccnters. 1t
will be vastly more beneficial than
baneful to the country.

The concessions that have been
made by Mexico for the building OF
railways from the interior to either
coast, and to q connection with the
railway system OF the United States,
promise to be Of great benefit to both
countries, and will eventually lead to
reciprocal trade. The Republic Of
Mexico Is composed Of twenty.eight
States. having an estimated Ire OF
something over II million square
miles, and u population Of ten millions.
The agricultural resources Of Mexico
are unsurpassed on this continent in
richness. Her sugar Is pronounced
superior In quality to that Of Cuba, and
she has the means to supply the world.
The same may be said of her coffee aud
tobacco. Her mineral u have
long been noted for their extent and
varied character. The chief articles Of
export are copper ores, cochineal, in-
digo, and other dyes hides, hemp,
mahogany and other woods. The
chief imports are cotton, linen and
WOODEN fabrics, wrought and UNI
wrought iron and machinery. The
value OF the entire commerce Of Mex
leo for the year ending June, 1870, was
computed at $s3. l74,7 100 imports, and
81, 600 900 exports, about three
fourths the latter being In coin. All
Of this trade-and 1t will increase as
t%onishingly with the opening up Of the
country by railways-will henceforth
be under control of the United States.
This will give us an outlet for our
manufactured articles, the immense
value Of which Il Is utterly impossible
to even approximately compute at
this time.

THE TWO GLASSES.

There sat two glasses, filled to the brim,
On rich mans table, rim to rim,
One was rnddy, and red as blood
And one was clear as the crystal flood.
Said the glass of wine to his paler brother,
"Let us tell tales of the past TO each other;
| can tell of banquet, and reve and mirth,
And the proudest and grandest souls on earth,
Fell under ny touch, as tho struck with blight,
Where was king, for ruled in might
From the heads of kings have torn the crown,
From the heights of fame have hurled men
down,
have blasted many an honered name,
have taken virtue and given shame;
have tempted the youth with sip, taste,
That has made his future barren waste.
Far greater than any king am |,
Or than any army beneath the sky,
have made the arm of the driver fail,
Aud sent the train from the iron rail-
have made good ships go down at sea,
And the shrieks of the lost were sweet to me;
For they said, "Behold how great you be
Fame, strength, wealth, genius, before you fall,
And your might and power are over all.
Ho no pale brother, laughed the wine,
Can you boast of deeds as great as mine l''
Said the water glass, II cannot boast
Of king dethr0ned or a murdered host;
But can tell Of hearts that once were sad,
BY my crystal drops made light and glad,
OF thirsts I've quenched and brows Eve laved,
Of hands have cooled, and souls I've saved
| have leaped through the valley, dashed down
the mountains
Slept in the sunshine, and dripped from the
fountain;
have burst my cloud fetters and dropped
from the sky,
And everywhere gladdened the landscape and
eye.
have eased.the hot forehead of feverand pain,
have made the parched meadows grow fertile
with grain;
can tell of the powerful wheel of the MILL
That ground out the -four and turned at my
will
! can tell Of manhood debased by you,
That have lifted and crowned anew.
cheer help strengthen and aid.
gladden. the heart Of man and mad
set the chained wine captive free,
And all are better for knowing me-
These are the tales they told each other,
The glass of wine, and its paler brother,
As they sat together filled to the brim,
On the rich mans table, rim TO rim
