This being the day for the Financial Report by M. le Baron Louts, Minister of Finances, the Tri bunes were soon filled with spectators to overflow. ing. There were many ladies : they made their way into the body of the hall, and seated themselves on the benches of our Legislators, which example was followed the men. French gallantry dispensed, for unce, with the regulations upon t«is subject.— Several English ladies were recognised by their cockle-shell hats, in' the body of the Hull, where they obtained places more easily than they could at Westminster. Whatever superiority the English may boast over us in other respects, our politeness to the ladies is pre-eminent. The Minister of Finances made a long clear and methodical speech, of which we can only give an out line.
