refusing to settle their bargains or to fulfil

FRENCH PAPERS,
The Journal d l'Emfiirc contains the foL
lowing article :
Analysis of thr Financial si nation of Eng
land and^France.
England —England can nut have m-re
than 500 millions of revenue : the hi-, how
ever. 1 500 rnilli ms ; but S00 mil ons re
present her actual weal.It, and 1 -!L0 m.m. j
ons the revenu of her nioiiMpoiy ; whence
it results, that when England is ever so lit
tie Cl amped in her commerce, the exchange
becomes unfavorable to her ; she can on
longer support herself, and she requites a
p iper money. Papei m mey is a natural
and indispensable ennseqoence'of tiie situa
tion of a nation whicii i ke England, hascie”
ated a factitious revenue. England p.jys
600 niiilions of interest for debt ; that is,
twice her real and reasonable revenue.
I' u a xck.—- fr i aifce has f>00 miliions c>f rc
venue in rime of peace. 1 his is only two
thirds of what slut can raise in tme of war.
Hy adding 50 ccn imcs to her rates of im
ports, her revenue is raised 16 1,V00 milli
ons. This revenue is wholly derived from
her own'territory. She has 50 millions of
debt, that is to say, one sixth of 1 >r oidina
rv income. Jt ts obvious from this, that
France has not and ought not to have a pa
per money. France may be considered Hi
a rich farmer, who finds every thing on his
farm. She has no need of commerce, but
as an agent for selling her productions
Germany, Italy, art open to lier speculali
ons ; and even England is happy to receive,
It hen she chooses to send the surplus of her
produce. 1 he bank discounts tw.ee a» much
