Whats the Matter? The mail steamship Ville de Paris, belong- ‘ng to the French General Transatlantic Com- , Which sailed from Havre on the 28th of bruary and Brest on Saturday, the 2d of March, arrived off Sandy Hook last Monday aight and made her dock at this port early yes- terday morning, under command of Captain Gurmont, having ron over in nine days and ond ten hours, The Ville de Paris landed very valuable cargo and fifty-five firet passengers, What is of more im- to the public at large and the com-. community she brought our news- ‘paper files and special correspondence, with a heavy mail dated the same day as the letters nd papers now on board the Cunard steam- @bip Africa, which left Liverpool on the 2d nst., the day the French vessel started from Brest, and which will be delivered here from Boston, perhaps, on Friday evening. This valuable service of the French com- panyenables us to place before our readers ‘to-dsy very interesting details of our cable Gespatches, and places all parties engaged in the Franco-American trade, or having busi- ess relations generally with the continent of Europe, in a position to act on their written advices and reply to their correspondents by the steamers which will sail from New York on Baturday. Indeed, active business men may pave forwarded their answers to France by the steamer which leaves Boston to-day, as they hhad to five o’clock yesterday evening to do ‘dusiness and write and post their letters. ‘When the French steamship Pereire anticipated the Cunard ship in thé same manner a couple of weeks since we asked, What's the matter ? ‘We repeat the question to-day. The Remains of the French Corps Expedie Mounaire to Mexico, The Courrier du Havre, February 25, states ‘that the strength of the French Corps Expedi- ‘tionnaire to Mexico remaining to be brought home is about twenty thousand men, of which -only eight thousand will be taken to France by ‘the vessels from Cherbourg, Brest and Toulon, “the remainder going to Algeria. ‘The original strength of the corps landed in Mexico was, we believe, about thirty-five thou- wand men. Marshal Bazaine said at La Teja that the French troops under his orders num- bered forty thousand. Coun%equently the occu- pation of Mexico has cost the French fifieen thousand veteran troops, to say nothing of the pecuniary cost, which has been heavy, and to get back a part of which they are hclding on to the Vera Cruz Custom House until the last. We must also take into account the drafts of men sent out from France to fill up the wegiments of the corps, These could not have ‘been leas than three thousand to five thousand ‘men, #o that the total loss to France cannot be Jess than eighteen thousand to twenty thou- sand men in the four and a half years of war— @ high price to pay for a little of “a gloire.” ‘The Captured Gold ef the Richmend Banks. ‘An investigation has been ordered by,Con- gress into the facts of the order given by the President to Treasurer Spinner to deliver up to the Richmond banks the $250,000 in gold captured with Jeff Davis’ party at the close of the war. The order exacted bonds for the return of the money in the event of a legal uit or the action of Congress necessitating It. We know not on what grounds the President essumed the right to deliver the gold, but the order was clearly illegal. The security required was no security , according to the prin- ciples regulating government seizures. It could be evaded without difficulty, and once the money passed from the vaults of the Treasury there was very little chance of its finding its way back there. General Spinner refused to comply with the order, and the mat- fer now comes up for inquiry before the Retrenchment Committee. The Treasurer deserves credit for the firmness which he dis- played in this matter. It will probably have saved the amount to the government, or at all events will prevent it from being subjected to cross suits for its recovery. ‘The Relations Be Spain and Britain. According to the London and Paris Inter- national the relations between Spain and Britain have grown very critical. Lord Stan- ley recently sent a note to the British Minister at Madrid which may, according to that jour- mal, be considered the ultimatum of ‘the Cabi- met of St. James in the vexed affair of the Tornado. It is added that the British Minister will be recalled if the demands of his govern- ment be not granted, which demands are:—An apology and the payment of an indemnity, be- aide the liberation of the crew of the Tornado, who are now at liberty. From this it would seem that the question of arbitration has not been acted upon. It is not likely that Spain will hasard a war with Britain about this small matter. It would be pripreme folly if she did; for she has already ‘enough war on her hands with Chile and Peru, and if Britain became the ally of these two the result would bo the sudden destruc- Yion of the proud and obstinate old monarchy. Spain will, therefore, yield the point under some diplomatic pretext sufficient to save hor pride. .

AMUSEMENTS. “ Wood's Theatre. Mias Fanny Morgan Phelps began a six nights’ engage- ment at this theatre on Monday last. The piecos in which she appears are Pilgrim’s Wild Fish Girl and the Bonnie Fish Wife. In the first Miss Phelps displays her Powers of portraying fish character, and in the second her ability to render g good representation of Scotch manners and dialect. The Ronnie Fish Wife is a most laughable little farce, and Miss Pnelpa’ impersonation of Miss Thistiodown was a really good piece of acting. Mr, Sol Smith, Jr., makes a capital Sir Hiccory Heartycheer, and Mr. Belvia Ryan is irresistibly comical as Gaiters.

He would (eli them that when William H. Seward was the most conservative was when he carried the standard of liberty across the country, and, planting it in the citadel of slavery and secession, made such a stirring speoch at St. Joseph, Missouri, for. universal freedom. And when he was most destructive was when he staggered through an agglomerated crowd and asked them whetber they would have Andrew Johnson for President or king. The motto of the conservatives of the present day was, Blessed are the conservatives, for they shall inherit the Custom House and eat the kxecu- tive bread and butter. Thirty-five years ago the peoplo of England bad learned what wo also bave learned in this country—that whoever isthe master of his own labor and its fruit 18a property holder. Conservatism yielded the honor in the reform debate of 1832, when Engiand was hanging on the verge of civil war, Yhon conservatism clutcled its bands and cried, “ We do not care to take the risk of reform!’ But society advances by the consequences of “taking the riska.’’ «Taking the risks’ is the very foundation of enterprise. A friend of his in England was once warned not to ‘take the risks; but he accepted them and now we re- ceive intelligence from the Old World in a quarter of an and Cyrus W.

Matthews. Very litle interest was taken in the election, and many New York merchants who reside in Orange ‘failed to depoalt thir ballots. ‘The republicans hada majority at the last election of 60, Paterson. RerTaLtaTion,—The authorities of Paterson recentiy passed an ordivanco regulating the speed of Erie railway trains through the city to six miles an hour. The com pany havo now stopped selling excursion tickota be tween that city and Now York, and much inconvenience is felt by the peopie of Paterson on account thereof, BURGLARY IN MERCER STREET.

The abulifonete deola that our Declaration of Indopendence was not a lie, but that it was the truth. Conservatism ‘replied that they were about to precipitate ruin on the country. There was not a crack of a rifle nor the gleam of a bowie knife in retura from the abolitionists; nothing but an appeal to the senses, to the integrity of the nation, Whea loyal men stood at the doors of Congress and said, ‘Stand back; wait ull blood of our brothers has dripped from your han the spirit of conservatiam became ‘alarmed and exclaimed, almost in the words of “P. V. Nasby,”’ “This is a tendency to concentrate @ consoli- dated power in the hands of Congress, instead of dis- pensing it throuzh the hands of ove man, President Jobnson.”” Conservatism counsels magnauimity to our late foes. It was human nature that surrendered to General Grant, not General Lee, and in dealing so very leviently with the vanquished aro we to suppobe that a millennium of good fellowship Is about to be inau; ureted between the North and South? EdmundgBurke has truly said, “There are few statesmen #0 clumsy in busi- ness ag to fall into the errors which proved tie ruin of their predecessora.””- The strongho'ds of conservatism are the States of the South and the great cities of the North, The Northern newspapers which, so far as they thought pradent, suppor the rebellion, were conservative papers; tha drawing rooms in which British insolence agafust the American Union was tolerated were the drawing rooms of conservative occupants, and the ex- chief of the prize ring ts the conservative represontative in Congress of New York.
