MONDAY EVENING, MA IT 17, 1830. N°. 13,476. FRANCE AND ITS GOVERNMENT. (Concluded from Tx STAR of Saturday.) From the Reprsentant. PUBLIC EDUCATION. After having thus giveri an account of the sy,tem, it remains to give an account of the men : The Central Administration, or in other words, the offices of the Minister Grand Master, employ about The Staff of the University is composed of ten Members of Council, and some fifteen Inspectors General Each 'leadenly has a Rector, two Inspectors, a Treasurer, a Secretary, and on an average five Professors. Wbic makes the number of the whole amount to 270 Each Lyceum or College Royal has a Provost (Prooiseur) who is its director, a Censor, for watching over thr studies admitted, a Steward, six Professors of Latin and of Greek, each having a different class, a Professor of rhetoric, another of philosophy, three or four Professors of mathematics, and an Almoner. Total in all these Colleges 49s Besides the Professors, who are only with the Pupils du. ring the time necessary for giving their lessons, each lyceum has five or six Under-Masters (maitre' d' etudes) who are charged with overlooking the Pupils during their hours both of study and of recreation, and during their walks .... The secondary schools established by the towns, and which are called conansune-colkyes, arc to the number of about three hundred. The number of the Prof esors is proportioned to the number of scholars, and varies consequently with the population of the towns. The average may be taken at five Professors to a college, besides the Director. Total . 1,800 The secondary schools established and conducted by indi. viduals follow the same system as the preceding. The principals of these schools, after being licensed by tha Grand Master, cannot take into employment any Pro fessor without a license from the Rector of the academy within whose district they are living, who has it in his power to lay a prohibition on either the Professors or the school itself. The number of these schools is about 200 • that of the Professors The gratuitous first schools established by the govern ment or the communes, and conducted either by what are called the brethren, or by the mode of mutual In struction, are to the number of about 1500, and the number of the Masters about.. The first schools which are not gratuitous, established by individuals in cities or towns, and c onducted by tho same, amount to . . Lastly, there is in almost all the villages a school-muter, who is almost always the Clerk of the parish, and who is named by the Rector of the district Academy. Their number is about . .. . I The schools of law, medicine, and surgery, in the whole of France, employ a number of professors amounting to 600 In this manner, under the minister of public educa tion, there appear to be 42,815 individuals employed and paid by the Government, or who cannot exercise their calling in life without its permission, and consequently without being under its complete control. MINISTRY OF FINANCE. To give as much order as possible to the description of this Ministry, the names will be given of the different parts of which it is composed, and which are formed into Directions General. These are the Treasury, Direct Taxes, Register and Land Office Indirect Taxes, Post Office, Customs, Local Dues, Rivers and Forests, Lot tery Royal, and Mortgage Office. The number of persons employed in the offices of this Mi nister at Paris, independently of any of the Directions, may be Treasury—A Receiver General In the principal place in each department. Total A Receiver in the principal place in each Arrondissement 383 In every commune there is a receiver of the taxes, called the Percepteur; but for some years past, several of these offices have been joined into one, in order to raise the salaries of the holders. The number of these holders is about , 20,000 For all Inince, there are about a score of Inspectors-Ge neral of Finance and Inspectors of the Treasury 20 Lastly, in the principal place in each department, is a Paymuter.General of the Treasury The number of persons employed as receivers or cashiers In the offices of the Receivers-General, Receivers, Pay masters, &c. &c. is at least sixty for each department; and consequently for the whole of France Total in this division Direct Taxes. This is the name given to the taxes on land, houses, doors and windows, and personal property Each department has a Director and an Inspector 172 To each of the Directors is attached a number of Comp trollers, who reside In the different arrondissements, and whose office is to check the lists of taxes raised in the different communes in the department. On an average, they may be rated at twelve to a department; which makes for the whole of France 1,039 To this part of the finance department Is attached the di rection of the General Land.eurrey (endears paroel. lairs) of France; which is a survey by the acre ' of all landed property public and private, in all the depart ments, for the purpose of coming at an exaet distribu tion of the tax. This operation, which was carried on with great activity under the Empire, and of which every body acknowledged the necessity, has been given up in several of the departments. The government gives up the completion of it, because it had a tendency to create a ne c e s sity for justice and equality in the distribution of the tax; which, in its opinion, is not according to the monarchical prineipk. The Directors, Chief Engineers, and Geometrical Ob , servers attached to this Survey, are to the number of about. The persons employed in the offices of the Directors of the direct taxes in the departments are about .... Total of the individuals employed in the direct taxes 2,004 It is impossible to quit this part of the subject without saying, that this is the only part of the administration that is well arranged, and which answers completely the object of the government and the interest of those who have to pay ; but unfortunately the practice of the istrri viduals connected with it is not in very exact accords:we with the theory. Register and LatteLejlee.—This brawilirbast a.

Just see now, bow PRICE 71). they kept their word. They changed the name of Con scription to Law for Recruiting, and the Assessed Taxes they called Indirect Taxes. It is hard to say which did moat harm to France, the promises, or the way they a ere kept. A Director-General, tcn Managers, and the same number of Inspectors-General make what may be called thc Head-Quarter Staff of this division ; and then. are about two hundred and fifty Clerks in the headquarters office.

TIZTICe" • ... • 12,820 120 1,300 85,488 It appears therefore that the number of individuals em ployed, or who are placed in a state of absolute depen_ dence on the Government, under the five branches of the' Ministry of which a view has been given, amounts to the' , enormous quantity of five hundred and seventy-four thou sand, two hundred and fifty-eight. And in this no notice has been taken of the Ministry of War, its Staffs, Governors, Military Schools, and army, which, by the letter of the law, is to be on the peace esta blishment 240,000 men. Nor has any notice been taken of the Navy, its Victual ling-office, Dock-yards , Seamen, and Marine Artillery, wbo are fixed at 60,000 men. Neither has any notice been taken of the individuals on half-pay, the holders of civil and military pensions, who amount to more than 60,000. lastly,in all the foregoing cal culations, when the exact number to a unit or two could not be ascertained, the estimate has always been made at the lowest ; and on summing up, the result appears to be, that the French Government has near a million of people in its direct employ, or dependent on it and on its nomina tion for their support. The whole population of France is thirty-two millions ; of which the males may be taken at sixteen. Of these sixteen millions, the half, at the most, can be supposed to have attai ned to man's estate, and to be effectively employed in civil life. It follows, therefore, that France has only eight millions of citizens of this kind; and of these, one man in eight is in the employment of the government, paid by it, or dependent on it for the bread he lives on. Would it be worth while to go on, and add the number of the domestic servants, and tradesmen interested is the custom of the million ? It seems unnecessary to take the trouble; for what is proved is quite enough.- 1 And now then to ask all England, or the friends and protectors of the existing government of France in that country,—to ask Burke himself if he were alive,—would you like to have such a government yourselves? Is a government like this, what can be called a good one ? And what is to be thought of a government which, in spite of all this, does not think it has got authority enough, or prerogatives sufficiently extensive ; and which for fifteen years has been doing nothing but trying to extend Ahem, in defiance of all laws and compacts ? Answer, you Englishmen who make a hubbub about the appoint ment of an additional judge, for fear of increasing the *Ounce of the Crown Other inferences crowd upon the mind. The first *1 that the governors must be move abominably bed than their system of government, if with one man in eight in their own immediate pay or depatience, they cannot di-1 And what is the effective strength of the people in France ? Eighty thousand voters. Fewer fur all France than there are in five or six towns in England. Awl these voters, in spite of all kinds of violence, all ZintA of tricks, and all hinds of temptations, return to Chamber of Deputies a majority against the ntin;stcy. The pains which have been taken in publishing there details will not be without return. In spite of eve!y thing that may be in the way, it will have the effect of informing public opinion in this country ; and it is of consequence to the welfare of England, that every body should be acquainted with the circumstances. The UM ductors of the daily and periodical press will see thu truth of this, and give circulation to the facts. Existing cirumatances necessarily direct attention to the system of elections in France. And the mistakes, arising nut of misinformation, which the English journals make every day upon that subject, are such as to induce the author of the preceding calculations to engage to eater upon it at no very distant period.
