PARIS, MARca 12.--The Minister of Finance has to day presented the budget to the Chamber of Deputies, of which the following is the summary, as far as we were able to understand the result in the Minister's speech The statement of the accounts of 1826 offers an excess of receipts above the expenditure of 6,164,443 franca. The View of the receipt awl expenditure of 1827 shows an excess of expenditure of 35,200,000 francs. But we found in other parts of the speech that this de fieit is covered to the amount of 31',600,000 francs by a credit on the Spanish Government, and other items. As for the extraordinary expenges which the affairs of the East,.Ameriaa, or Spain, may render necessary in 1828, they are all eventual, and are not to be covered by the ordi nary revenues of the State.

SELECTIONS FROM SHAKSPEARE, I:o;TDO'ti, ISM This is a selection, upon Dr. Dodd's plan, of the best scenes and passages from Shai:s peare, for the purpose of comprising within one volume all the concentrated excellencies of our immortal Dramatist. The idea is good, and executed with much.fine tact and discrimination. It is a volume that particularly appeals to the lounging student; libo, too negligent to go through the voluminoUs productions of Shaks peare, is anxious to arrive at them by a short cut. He will find the present selection blazing all over with the . varied gem of talent, mid as such a highly valuable acquisition, This day were published, Bvo. price 1/. 4s.

The Austrian Observer of the 3(1 of March, contains remarks on what is . called the manifesto of the Ottoman Porte, which it declares to be a rhapsody, whichin the form in which it circulates in Europe does not merit the name of an authentic document, and much less of a diplomatic note. It states.that it never has been printed in Turkey, nor read in the mosques, but only sent to the Ayans in copies, which are not even uniform. Hence the many versious of it in circulation, none of which the Porte recognises, and the Reis Efrendi declares numerous passages which have been Pointed out to hint to be forged or disfigured.

The quickness with which the fell spoiler Death has winged his 'haft—ssa like the light ning which doth cease to be, ere one can say ic lightens—the high mark at which he has dire:. ted his aim, and the crisis at which he has per formed his stern task, have so oppressed our feelings as not to allow of an elaborate expression in words : and, it may be added, many words are not suited to the imme diate occasion, and would only detract from its. solemnity. We therefore refer the reader at once to the details; in tending on another day to pay our tribute of veneration to the deceased. 10 0 Sir P. Laurie Cape: Hugh Reid 3 3 Sir D. Williams M. Wyatt, Esq.

CONWAY TILE ACTOR.—The death of MT, CONWAY, in the manner we have already described, iscon firmed 4 the - Ameriean Pap's wi ch arrived last night. FOREIGN QUARTERLY REVIEW.--No. 111. A weekly Paper t 4leservedly of some repute, in its analysis of the present Number of this periodical has pronounced it heavy, but as this, however common in its application,' is a some what loose and ,in , 46 . 41te .opinion, we scarcely profess to understand it. There are two sorts of heaviness, the one arising from excess of ver biage (as is the case with the analysis in question,) the other, which is the natural result of deep re search and sound observation. Now, if our cotemporary means to assert that the present Foreign Review is heavy, because, like the Ex cursion, it is verbose and prosing, he is alto gether mistaken, but if he calls it so, simply because it is well informed on its different topics and treats them in a learned spirit, then We coincide with his opinion. In fact, scarcely an article in the present num ber is devoid of useful, (and in one instance, the romance of Rollo and the Dukes of Nor mandy), of novel intelligence, put forth with a dash of assumption certainly, but at the saiiie time with a tact that warrants such pretensions. The first, and perhaps the most elaborate, ar ticle is the one on Phrenology, which contains a spirited, but far from dispassionate, digest of the various arguments urged in favour of, and against, this science. It is the work manifestly of a partisan ; of one whO is disposed to credit the dogmas of phrenologists, and who is per fectly ready to- break a lance in their defence. " Italian. Tragedy" is light and . airy, but weak and somewhat superficial ; we have heard it at tributed to the pen of a well-known authoress, and indeed its intellect is rather of a femi nine cast, that is to say, elegant, but defi cient in vigour, terseness, and 'originality of thought. " Bohemian Literature" is, we are given to understand—the composition of Mr. Bow ring; there is nothing very miraculous on the score of talent about it ; nevertheless it is read able, and contains some pleasant off-hand speci mens of translatiOns. The remaining articles (with the exception of the " Judicial Institutions of France and England," which is really ad mirable, and replete with sound information, and which would have made a first-rate appearance in either the Edinburgh or Quarterly Reviews— inter 'milk iniilesinzus) contain nothing that calls for particular remark, in the way either of praise or animadversion. Sir W. Scott's criticism on Moliere, ought perhaps to make another excep tion, it is penned in a gossiping lively vein by one who has a strong relish for his subject. The cursory analyses of the different comedies of the great French wit are just, but scarcely new ; every - one is acquainted with their general charac teristics. The account, however, of Moliere as an actor deserves mention, and with it we shall conclude our notice. As the " Malade hnaginaire" was the last character in which Moliere appeared, it is here necessary to say a few words upon his capacity as an actor. He bore, according to one contemporary, and with justice, the first rank a:nong the performers of his line. He was a comedian from top to toe. He seemed to possess more voices than one, besides which every limb had its expression ;—a step in advance or retreat, a wink, a smile, a nod, expressed more in his action than the greatest talker could explain in words in; the course of an hour. He was, says another contemporary, neither corpulent nor otherwise, rather above the middle size, with a noble carriage and well-formed limbs ; lie walked with dignity, had a very serious aspect, the nose and mouth rather _large, with full lips, a dark complexion, the eye-brows black and strongly marked, and a command of countenance which rendered his physiognomy formed to express comedy. A less friendly pen (that of the author of L'ln-promptu de l'Hotel de Condo has cari catured Moliere as coming on the stage with his head thrown habitually back, his nose turned up into the air, his hands on his sides with an affectation of negligence, and (what would seem in England a gross affectation, but which was tolerated in Paris as an expression of the superbia qucesita nteritis,) his peruke always environed by a crown of laurels. But the only real defect in his per formance arose from a habitual hovel, or alight hiccup, which he had acquired by attempting to render himself master of an extreme volubility of enunciation, but which his exquisite art contrived on almost all occasions success fully to disguise. Thus externally fitted for his art, there can be -no doubt that he, who possessed so much comedy in his conceptions of character, must have had equal judgment and taste in the theatrical expression, and that only the poet himself could fully convey what he alone could have composed. He performed the principal character in almost all his own pieces, and adhered to the stage even when many motives concurred to authorize his retirement. We do not reckon it any great temptation to Moliere, that the Academy should have opened its arms to receive him, under condition that he would abandon the profession of an actor ;' but the reason which he assigned for declining to purchase the honour at the rate proposed,• is worthy of being mentioned. " What can induce you to hesitate ?" said Boileau, charged by the Academicians with the nego ciation. " A point of honour," replied Moliere. " Now," answered his friend, " what honour can lie in blacking your face with mustachioes, and assuming the burlesque disguise of a buffoon, in order to be cudgelled on a public stage?" " The point of honour," answered Moliere, "con sists in my not deserting more than a hundred persons, whom my personal exertions are necessary to support." The Academy afterwards did honour to themselves and justice to Moliere by placing his bust in their-hall, with this tasteful and repentant inscription.— " Nothing is wanting to the glory of Moliere. Where was wanting to ours !" Thur May se'nnight a canal boat belonging to Mr. MILTON, of Pershore, was being navigated down the Avon, heavily laden with coals, when, on approaching the weir near the town, the strength of the current was such that she became unmanageable,, began to till, and got into the middle . of the stream. k. CARE, the captain of the boat, seeing the danger, with great presence of mind, Ino tened to his wite, who was at the bow of the vessel, thrust her overboard into shallow water, and she reached the bank in safety. He then went to his daughter, about 15 years of age, who was in the cabin, but before he could get her out, the water rushed in upon them, and the boat went down, and engulpbed both. There was anther man on board, who, at the risk of his own life, the most praiseworthy efforts to save the unfortunate beAge, and in which he was assisted by several persons on shore, but to no avail. It would appear that a presentiment wlighed upon CARY:4 mind that something unfortunate was to ' pen, as he mentioned to his wife whilst on his way down I the river early in the morning, that he dreamt over night they Lad all been drowned toge Herald. • The sensation which this event produced throughout city, and continues to produce, need not be described. it came with the suddenness of the electric shock ; and seem,„ even now, to he a dream, rather than melancholy reality.. Owing to the crowd that during the evening occupied the house of the Governor, and the conclusion incident to the event, we.are not able to ascertain all the facts that we mild have desired to communicate for the public infol.ms tion. We understand that Governor Clinton discharged his official avocations during the day as usual ; having written several letters in the afternoon. He died almost instantly, the first indication of the approach of the attack being the falling hack of his head upon the chair, and lapse between that moment and the arrival of Dr. Bay, when life was extinct, not Laing more than ten minute,. Ail efforts to restore animation proved unavailing, not - withstanding they were unremitted to a late hour last night. Governor Clinton's bole will live after him. His life and actions now form a part of the public history. Wz., have ever been of his political opponents, but the closes all animosities. We speak of political animosities personal, with us, there were none. ►j"e can only now mingle our sorrow with that of the whole community, and especially with his bereaved and deeply afdisted family Under the Constitution, the executive duties devolve on the Lieutenant-Governor, who is now confined to' hie room by severe indisposition. (From the Albion Daily Advertiser, Feb. ii.) DE WITT CLINTON 15 NO MORE !-The bright 'UM; - nary which has shed its glory upon our country for many years, is set for ever ! but it, remembrance will ever be u , green as the hills over which it has revolved., and as per -Ina, nent as the adamantine rocks of our country. Last even ing at abaut seven o'clock, the whole city was thrown int, agitation and gloom by the repott of the death of the great man, and snhsequent accounts but too fatally confirmed the fart. An immense crowd asAmablect in front of his late dwelling to ascertain the truth of tl:c.‘ rumour which had gone forth, each being loth to believi its accuracy till it was fully confirmed by the attendin, , , physicians. Ile was sitting in his study, and while COD - versing with two of his sons, his head fell forward and life instantly left him. his death was probably cccaiioned by a rupture of the heart. All attempts to resuseit,te proved vain. (From the Albany Argus, Feb. 13.) The sudden death of Governor Clinton continues to en gross the public attention. , The public feeling is greatly, though not Unduly, excited. Both Houses of the Legislature, it will he perceived, ad journed yesterday morning, after adopting, in a manner becoming themselves and the high character of the de ceased, resolutions expressive of their deep sense of the public deprivation, and after making the appropriate at • rangements for the funeral obsequies, The funeral, we understand, wily take place on Thurs day ; until after which, the Legislature will probably . ad • journ from day to day. We were not correctly informed yesterday in ascribing the - death of Governor Clinton to apoplexy. It was caused, as is generally believed, by the rupture of a blood-vessel at the heart. Death was instantaneous.. !At the time not a muscle of hiS countenance was diAorted. • The public Meetings, as well ac the proceedingi, of the Legislature, show how universal the desire i, to unite in the tribute of respect to the memory of a great' man and a distinguished citizen. Since writing the above, we, have brat officially in formed that the funeral will take place on Thursday the 14th inst., at two o'clock in the afternoon, from the resi - deuce of the deceased.
