This - system of borrowing would not be for tine year only ; but every year it would be necessary to borrow the IlifFerenee between 12,000,0000 and 20,000,000, or eight millions sterling; for it would be ruinous to put the country On a Peace Evablishment of :twenty millions, and in ease of 'tear, all her itrength would be paralized.

Tite situation of the latter is highly eligible, and butt little expellee will be required to prepare it for their Highnesses. The last Irish Papers arc filled with accounts of tumult and outrage in that Country, which but too fully justify the military force asked by liii nisters to ensure its tranquillity. Three Baronies in the Chanty Louth bare been proclaimed•-- Upper Dundalk, Lower Dundalk, Arden and Louth ; and we latnent to add, that several other districts in Wexford and elsewhere are ripe for similar severe measures. Though there 'is something consolatorylo the lecisiott of the llouse of Com mons l ast n i g h t , we should g rea tly belie our' feelings were we to congratulate the country on the event. True it is, that it has completely proved the power of our Representative System, and though the proof is in our judgement founded on error and excess, yet we must admire the principle contained in and established so firmly by this example. It has sheun that no Ministry, however popular, how. ever high their claims to narional confidence, however glorious the carreer have pursued, (towever approved their general policy, have the means of carrying any measure respecting which there may be even the mere presumptiestitat a considerable portion OF the pohliC *kg . rult: . 64. vinced of its propriety.

We think we are war , ranted in saying that the Alien Police cannot have too strict a watch on the character and de scription of persons who are at present, with ha !utility, visiting this metropolis. A remissness on this subject may perhaps be defended by the state of peace which we are now enjoying, but if our neighbours find it necessary to have more co ercive measure resorted to than heretofore, surely the saute cause warrants a similar precaution on our part, and we May venture to affirm that a more watchful eye is necessary in 'time of peace than even in war, for during the latter, the pro scribed will rarely venture to make their appear ance on our hurts ; but during a period of peace, tee obnoxious' of every kind to- other Govern ments, will he found seeking refuge in this land of liberty, and will be reat4y to,assist by their in trigues: in. plunging us into another war, Or .
