FRENCH EIHANCE.

The 3foniteur publishes the following financial
statement, which is understood to be the work of the new
minister M. Forced. de la Moquette, who presented a report
to the Emperor at the last council :
"We lately attributed the recent decline in the public
funds to causes completely unconnected with the financial
situation of the country, and particularly to the American
crisis. Nothing could better justify that appreciation and
testify to the resources of the country and the confidence
of the people than the following statement :—lt is well
known that the Treasury gets executed at the Paris Bourse
the orders for purchases and sales which are transmitted to
it by the Receiver•Genend on account of the inhabitants
of the departments. These sales and purchases, which are
always effected for cash, go on constantly increasing. The
purchases, which in 1841 were only for 50 millions, amounted
in 1851 to 73 millions, and in 1860 had increased to 163
millions. The sales, which in the first of those three years
scarcely reached 15 millions, amounted to 48 millions in
1860, the excess of purchases last year over sales being
therefore 115 millions. During the first twelve daysof the
present mouth the orders for purchases received by the
Treasury amounted to 9,400,000 f., and for sales to
1,1110,000 f., leaving an excels of purchases of 8,250,000 f., er
MILT') equal to the average of each of the anterior months
of 1NO.".

The Monirear publishes the official return of the receipts
of the taxis and indirect revenue for 1860, which an.ounted
to 1,073,712,0001., being a decrease on the preceding year of
90.932,0001. The items which, in comparing the two
years, show an increase, are :
" Registration dues, 29,758,000 f. . • sale of tobacco,
15,417,0001. ; sundry duties, 3,549,0001. ; salt dna,
