THE domestic affairs of the country at present distract the attention from the contemplation of tilreign politics ; the pubiie mind being entirely engrossed with the consi. deration of the future financial plan.; of the Minister, the alleviation of the cricult.Lnd distresses of the country, and the additional retrenchments in the various depart ments of the Army, Nuvy, ant the Ordnance. The system of ficance hereafter to be :feted upon, is not yet fully &Ailed, and, in the present temper of the House of Commons, with the opposition mounted high on the stilts o f tr i um ph, and by no means presuming, on au- THE NATIONAL REGISTER. count of their late victory, the measures of the Ministers most be guided by superior prudence told caution. The very tread and look of the Minister are now watched with a lynx's eve ; every guinea taken from the treasury is to use a contmcn phrase, required to be looked ut twice, he ti= it is spent, and a correct occonnt must be rendered of the purpose, to which it was applied. In these endea vours to establish an extensive system of retrenchment and economy in every dep.xtment of the state, we sin cerely hope, that the partizans of the g;txxl cause will not suffer their zeal to carry them too fltr. Much have the present Ministers yet to do, and when we consider the per; , tinacity with which they have clung to the support of the present Military Establishment, there is a sometlijwg which presents itself' to our mind, which we think has not had its due weight of serious consideration. The secrets of the cabinet are to us impenetrable, but al though we ure virtually in a state of Peace, are the Mi nisters impressed with the full conviction, that such astute be of longduration, and have they not, from a general survey of the present state of Europe, and the ambitious views of certain potentates, some strong forelxxling, that England will soon have again to draw the sword—per haps in defence of legitimate mouorcky ? We hope the contrary, but we see something in the Army Estimates beyond a mere advance of general expenditure. In the mean time, Ministers feel themselves obliged to yield to the voice of the nation, and the Army Estimates have been withdrawn fiir the purpose of effixtin. , those re trenchments which have been sa strenuously insisted upon. The country's welfare has been, and we believe still is the object of the aim of the present Ministers; we have been borne by them victoriously through the con flicting elements of an unpiiralleled war, we are promised and assured beyond dispute, that retrenchment and economy shall be adhered to in every depaitment ; in such promises, we are not too sanguine when we say, they will be performed. The distress of the Agricultural state of the country at tracts at presmt the attention of the legislature. It is indeed a question worthy of the most ;nature and serious consideration, fur on its decision will depend the future prosperity of the country. As the subject is to be again debuted on Tuesday next, we shall not now enter into a full detail of the various measures which were proposed as a relief to the agricultural interest under its present severe depression. The remedy of Mr. Western, ache has taken the lead on the occasion, is either the export of corn, or the prevention of the importation of foreign corn, and the removal of the duties on spirits. Different remedies were also proposed, such as a duty upon foreign wool or foreign cloth, the augmentation of the duties on spirits, and the advance of a large sum of money to the agricultural interest. Mr. F. Lewis proposed two resolu tions, one to encourage the exportation of our own wool, and the other to permit the growth of tobacco within the United Kingdom. In the course of the debate, it was announced by the Chancellor of the Exchequer, that a drawback would be allowed on the malt used in brewing from the period ;;t whieli the new malt is brought in, to the period, when the war duties on malt are to cease, vie, July. The French and German papers, have been regularly received in the course of the week, but the severe re strictions, which are imposed upon the French press, pre vent us gleaning any further particulars as to the inter nal state of the country.—The French funds have been rapidly declining,. The Committee have made their report to the Cham ber of Deputies respecting the establishment of the Duke of Berri. Instead of the proposed million of francs a year, being reduced, tier five years to halt' that sum—the Com mittee in a paroxysm of loyalty, recommend the whole, and also that the million of francs proposed as an outfit should be increased to a million and a half. The same l'apers contain a long ordonnance of the King, re-constituting the national institute.' It is to be divided into fipur classes, called academies, these principal chimer are again. subdivided into minor branches. The trial of General Debelle on a charge of treason, has terminated, and the Council of War has passed semen e of death upon the prisoner, but recommended him to the clemency of the King. The General, after hearing the sentence, turned without the least emotion towards the soldiers, and said. "My &attires are not altered, for my conscience is pure. If the mercy of the King should still be extended to a subject, who was only led into au error, my whole life shall be employed in repairing my tailraces. If that can be expiated only by my death, I am ready to die, five le Rai. _ It is supposed that his punishment will be commuted.' to ten years imprisonment. Paris Papers of Wednesday last have been received, bat they are wholly destitute of interest. We learn, from a German Paper, that the present Go vernment of Poland holds out great encouragenhnt to foreigners to settle in that country. By a decree of the Viceroy, issued on the 2d of March, all artisans, maim titeturers, and agriculturists, settling in Poland, will be exempted Irma all taxes for six years; to the latter, portions of the crown lands will be given. These tb mignas and their suns are exempted Iran military service, and can at any time receive passports film the . Govern ment, oti wi.ating to return to their native country. 11. ARCH SL The introduction of their cattle and other effl.ets over tlh confines into Poland is toll free. Foreign Jews are; however, excepted from the benefits of this Decree. We give the followingas an extract of a letter from Paris, without imposing on our renders an implicit credence of its contents ; we must however r:.nark, that the motions of Austria have been for some re.:inlet' with a sus pieitnis eye. We do most firmly idieve that that Power is nourishing the indirideal , who will one ti;:y overthrow tlic dynasty of the Bourbons. P.tiits, )tut t 1 2.. —1 shot:lit think I wits i;etioi en t in my duty towards you, were I nut to apprise you, that 'annulus of' an alarming iintiire are now (ntent. in societies which, from their upportimity of correct iairirmation, rarely leave room for suppositions intelligence. It is Oriented that the Austt ian ar mies passed the frontiers of the French kimplom on the 13th instant, and that a declaration of their views was published at Embroil, in natiphiny, on the 15th. -Various arc the co n i ce . tures here un the molls es of this invasion; some pat:trod that It is eon eeted with the rethsal ul this power to rrsture (ialli chi to [Viand, which was considered as au indemnity for the aggrandisement of the Austrian territories in Italy. A Matti lest() of the Enipecor ot• Russia against Austria was said to have been recei%ed yesterday, complaining of this country's want of faith in the accomplishment of its treaties.

The rumour of a total change in AdminkratNt has subsided. If there is any change, it will be merely par tial. As the Prince Regent has conic to town, whatever change is to take place will be iimmsliately settled. Mr. Peel is still mentioned as successor to the. present Clan cellar of the Exchequer. The dispatches received over-land from the East Indies are stated to relate to measures now pending b;:iwecn the Govenor-General and the Mabrntt►, who refuse tip receive and maintain the body of sulbidiary troop:: idtcnd ed to be forced upon them ; the result muy lead to • general war in India. Sir David Ochterlony is appointed to the chief command of the forces in the field. The following particulars of the Woolwich smuggling have been transmitted to us:—On the voyage home, a carpenter employed in securing the packages discovered the secret. Immediately on arrival he gave inthrmation at the Custom House, but it was ten days after before the ship was inspected; in the mean time much of the smug.. bled goods for certain persona were got away, and mils those were left for men of less note. There were to the amount of 70001. for one man, packed hp as.--return Congreve rockets. There were many rare things which were got out of the way. In the mortars were lace, gloves, cambrics, &e. and in the tumbril:4 were claret, champaign, &c. Many people have long supplied them selves and friends with wine in this way, and their wives with finery. This is only a vessel which has been detect ed, but the trade has long and suceesively been carried on to a great extent. The man who infonned got about 10001. Why not call him before Parliament? Au account of the number of oases in which process had bzen issued from the Court of Exchequer, since the Ist dny of January, 1813, fir the recovery of debts due to the Crown fin- taxes, or arrears of taxes, distinguishing each year, and the number of eases of processes issued fin- sums under five pounds:— . _ Assessed Taxes.

By the repeal, of the war duty on Malt (which we be lieve, is nis i4a. per qr.) the brewers will be enabled to red tter the price of their beer one penny per pot. •The remains of the Duke d'Enghien have been fott,!. The spot where they were buried was pointed out by un old peasant, who dug the Prince's grave. The body hail been thrown into it without any coffin. A boot was first finnul, then the whole skeleton.

MARSHAL SOULT CASED.—" As Marshal Sonit wry proceeding along one of the public walks, an old Ham burgh merchant, who had suffered severely by Daeous,,cants boldly up to hint, and said, Is thy name &th ?—I last thou brought back to us any of our bank money?' Reeds-. ing no answer to his queries, he struck him a blow, and then caned him most soundly. The Marshal made off and with difficulty reached his hotel st•th the mob at his heels.
