[The 7'iniesl PARIS; Ap . im. 22. —The report of an attempt to ,poison the Emperor of Austria in his itaii,th jour ney has been in no wise confirmed. Letters and papers from Milan to the 14th instant say not a - word ni,owthe subject. The Emperor is now at Rome, where he bas been received by the Pope with every mark of respect anal friendship,— The report, therefore, that he bad gone to Rome to procure an union of the States of the church to his Lombardo-Venetian territory, merits not the slightest attention. The _report of eon spiracie3 all over the world are received and pro pagated among the Ultras here with great avi dity; but, notwithstanding what has been said about a combination of students to assas4inate Kotzebue, there is no foundation for the rummer. I have seen a letter from a diplomatist at Cads rube, which says, that after every inquiry it ap pears Saud acted without accomplices.

COMMITTEE OF FINANCE-SECOND REPORT. The Committee of Finance have presented a Second Report, which relates to the Army mates for the enrrent year. They. eornmence by congratulating the House that the suite of of in Europe condoned to preserve such in appearance of'tranquillity, as permitted the %.‘ ithdrawing of the Army of Occupation trotn France. This measure had necessarily kd to a great dilninution of the military force of thi s country ; a number of men equal in amount to the whole army returned from France, having been either reduced, or placed un der orders for reduction. Of the home force vot ed in the Estimates' of last year, a reduction of 9,142 rank and file has taken place, which, in addition to those reduced after evacuating France, will ultimamly effect a diminution of force amounting to 34,118 officers and men. The }Mount of reduction actually effected last year, amounts to 26,042. The total nutnher of men estimated for the service of the present year, ex clusively of those to be employed in India, amounts to 69,794 men. We have mentioned above, the actual reduction which took place in the cour s e of last year: It will he gratifying, however, to state the aggregate of reductions made in the last two years, which amount to 55,802 officers, non-commissioned officers, and privates. —The total sum to be voted for the ordinary services of the Army for 1819, amounts to 6,582,8021. 12s. 3:1.

GRAND JUra' PRESENTMENT. At the rising of the Old Bailey Court yesterday, the Grand Jury were introduced, when the Fore man gave in the following Presentment o❑ dis charging their trust : " The Grand Jury of the City of London, hav ing presented to the Conn all the Bilk which have been brought before them, take leave respectfully to ask fOr their discharge ; at the same tune lamenting the extent of crime which they have had to investigate, and look ing with confidence to the adoption of every means which may tend to promote its dimi nution. Its the prosecotiou of their duty, the Grand Jury have visited the gaol of Newgate, and they feel called upon to express their appro bation of the conduct of Mr. Brown, the Keeper, as to the superior cleanlinesS of the Prison, and, the evident regard which he pays to the comfort and necessities of the pi isoners : but they regret that the limited extent of the Prison will not ad mit, in its present crowded state, of a more com plete classification of the prisoners. The atten tion of the Grand Jury has been more particularly drawn to the system adopted by those Ladies, whose benevolent attentions to the improvement of the female prisoners, so strongly evidenced by their advancement in morals and discipline, in the opinion of this Jury, demands their public thanks. " Signed, in behalf of the Grand Jury, THOS. PHIPPS, Foreman. "Grand Jury Room, Old the 27tit April, 1819.•• EPRICt SEVENPENC FOR THE SUN. MODERN AMENDMENTS. MR. EDITOR—If the word " Reform" eon veyei, or were capable of affording no other meaning beyond its absolute powers half a cen tury ago, it could no longer excite the well grounded fears of those who now would rather submit to partial orjemporary evils than risk the destruction of all good by the adoption of it either in phrase or in practice. But, - Sir, you well know that there is a great deal in a name. When ever you wish to carry a point; especially with the many, then a name, whica in one expression embodies, your (Neat, will operate more power folly titan volumes of reasoning, or even the most rapturous bursts of eloqvienee. 'Of tila-the op pogners of our happy Constitution arc well aware, and avail themselves of it. Then wiry shall not the tvell-wishers to their country and to that Constitution- do the same ? Why shall not we oppose Reform by ‘-‘ ANIENDNINT ?"'—aa wad which the most moderate may a.hait the use of, even in its present most unlimited sense. That amendments are necessary none will deny vole rally ; but the misfortune is, that the loud stick lers for Reform contrive to intertnixt Reform and Amendment so adroitly that they add sttength to the arguments ttf 'the trieods of the first, whilst they contrive to raise temporary recruits amongst the moderate but unthinking friends of the latter. It is time then, that- the real friends to the country, men who have no party but that coun try, should .stand forward in searching to; errors that requite removal, and blessings which only want a fostering hand to bring them to maturity. TO do this, and to do it. effectually, would be to lessen the subjects of popular clamour, and to produce material benefit to all classes of society, for all classes must stand and fall together ; whilst the results would tend more to strengthen the Government, and the present Ministers, than a tenfold multiplication of Treasury influence ever could accomplish. To illustrate these -ob servations I shalt now proceed to offer one or two hints, which come fairly under the head' of AMENDMENTS. To repeal the SALT DUTY, generally,'would produce beneficial results too nittnerous to men tion ; particularly it the Admiralty were to distri bute the boats now rotting in the dock-y,ird4,, together with broken spars, old canvas, and twine, to the different out-ports, to be allotted to all seamen applying, by the Collectors of the Customs. True, the Revenue would lose one million and a ' half ; and, perhaps, there might be some small diminution of patronage. But, at the peace, the Minister, to relieve the people, took off two mil lions and a half of Malt Tax ! Now, Sir, have the people been relieved ? Has the beer been better or cheaper ? where then, went the relief ? To the purses of the Brewers The remedy is plain—take off the Salt Duty, and lay on an equivalent upon the Malt!!! Again—the Coal Duty is considered as a grieva• ante. Now I will grant that it cannot be re pealed or modified, but there is. a fact connected with it which deserves special notice, In the account of the tour of the Austrian Archdukes through this country, it was partici'. holy noticed by these august travellers, that great quantities of small coal at the pits were burnt, to get rid of as a nuisance, ever: after the supply of the steam engines, and after permission had been given to the poor to take away as much as they pleased. , But why was not this exported ? Be. cause it was liable to the same duty with the large, and would not fetch the same price ; the experiment has been tried, but failed ! Where, then', you ask, is the amendment? Simply thus : tajce the fair average price of coals, and consider the present duty as an ad valorem duty, not to be -- raised, whatever price coals may rise to, nor to he lowered, unless to coals 25 or 35 per cent. below the average. Then let the small coal be duty free ; or lay on a small duty in proportion to the ad valorem. IC will thus he impossible to play tricks on the general consumption of marketable coal ; and we shall have more coals burnt, because the pool will then be able to enjoy that luxury; we shall have more ships, seamen, and capital employed ; and, in short, we shall derive benefits that will be felt by.the whole country. • One word more, Mr. Editor, upon a subject of high import:MCC. It has been reported to the Society for lm orovement, sitting in the Ponitry, that lands [war ' Newcastle, cultivated by the spade instead ut the plough, and the wheat planted by dibbling, yield ed seventeen quarters per acre, instead of the cus tomary crop of four! Here, too, one spadeing, was worth two plough. ings,•and required an expenditore of 335. per acre. The saving in• seed was one peck instead of two bushels ! Now, Sir, - if we suppose this to hecotne gene ral, though only upon a very smallscale, say 100 acres in each parish, where will he labour for the poor? Where will be the necessity for importation, when an acre of wheat,. under this management, has actually yielded 800 bushels ? Here, then, are facts, that require not the in genuity of the Smitbean, the Owenean, or the ,Spenccan philosophy to brinithemhome to every man's understanding,—facts that are worthy gu. neral experiment, nay Ott are successful.
