LoUIIOII.
SUNDAY, JUNE S.

The Chancellor of the Exchequer plumes himself
upon the statement he has made to the House of
Commons on the state of the finances of the country
-now admitting for the sake of argument (which
we do, while we doubt the fact) that his statements
are not founded in fallacy nor bottomed in fraud, at
what point of Glory have we arrived !—Why, that
by depriving us (all but the blook.sucking reptiles
who exist upon the hard-earnings of an industrious
people) of our luxuries, and almost of our necessa-
ries of life, that in the seventh year of profound
peace our War Taxes suffice to support our Govern-
ment, all but a Loan (or call it what the Rt. Hon.
Gent. may please) of IS millions from the Sinking
Fund!!! The Chancellor of the Exchequer may
counsel us to " Thank God 'tis no worse," but we
know we have to thank him and his Right Hon.
Colleagues that it is so bad—if pensions and places
were not granted for the purposes of corrupt influ.
ence in an assembly which ougkt to be incorruptibly
patriotic, then might our Taxes be progressively
decreased, then might the agricultural and mann-
fiteturing parts of society see a refuge from despair,
and then might the' landholder be enabled to meet
the demands upon him, by the receipt of his rents,
instead of by ruinous mortgages of his estates.
Mr. Brougham has again most laudably called
the attention of the Commons to the formation of
the asi-disant " Constitutional Society"—a Society
founded on principles not only destructive of the
little that remains to us of the liberty of the press,
but in direct opposition to every feeling of fairness,
of honour, of honesty, and contributive only to the
gratification of the worst passions of the worst part
of human nature. The learned gentleman's di.-
claration of the illegality of their measures, though
conf►rmed by Mr. Scarlett (and two better legal au-
thorities could hardly be tbund) was positively and
impudently contradicted by the Solicitor-General.
The Scottish poet (Burns) when using his favourite
simile on the score of probabilities, " Oh, 'tis gold
to brass," little thought that his expression would
ever receive so perfect a double exemplification as in
this instance—f►r the weight of opinion is as much,
comparatively with Messrs. Brougham and Scarlett,
as the •ompal'ative assurance of Brass is with the
leaned Solicitor-General.

The Congress at Laybach has broken up, and the
ly Alliance has published an account of their
views and their exploits—which account, it' strip-
ped of its sophisms and falsehood, will proclaim to
the world that this triune demoniac Alliance has
been formed for the purpose of supporting villany
however consummate (provided always that it be
lc itiu~ate and hereditary) against every eflimt of the
ptople to regain that kind of liberty which belongs
honestly to every man of 'to every nation ; and
yet these Despots arc the same, whose pusillani-
mousness in the presence of the superior genius of
Napoleon nuonaparte would have submitted, and,
indeed, did z-almiit repeau:diy, and for a series of
