CHAMBER OF DEPUTIES.
MARCH 31.
The Order of the Day was read for the debate on
the Law of the Budget.
After some eiplithations from M. de Is flonillerie.
respecting► part of the charges on the Civil List, the
discussioi I commenced.
51. de la Boortlonnaye—lf in modern States the
finances have become the most difficult part. of the
administration; if in the extravagant system of
expenditure iuto which the Govertoments of Europe
are drawn, the progress of loans menaces every peo-
ple with the consequences; it is in representative
governinents that ►hey should find the guarantee
of that order. and the details of that economy,
*loch, without attacking the evil at its root,
fura long time palliate the danger. Referring to
the financial state of the country,. he asked *hat
confidence could the budget for the present year
inspire, when the budget for the year 1815 has lint
beets am yet definitively arranged ? Ile called their
attention to the progressive increase or expenditure
in each year since 1814. and to the general increase
its each ixtrticular department of the Ministry—an
increase which menaced the public fortune, if a de-
cided end manifest feeling did not interpose to
prevent it. In every quarter enormous appaint-
meats, the expenses or immense bureaux, armies
of 'clerks, surcharge the Treasury, and insult the
public misery ; and while an ill ahreeted economy
regarding the maintainance of tombs threateur

tions, while refornts the most dis!te.sittK in the
persunel of some establishments, stepolve the State
of military talents, the most matured sad useful.
men of the pea coattinsie to oppress the State, and
encumber the administrations.

The orator then alluded to the Government of
the Uptsrper, which, although filed with Ms poi-
imams, was conducted with the strictest economy.
The spud. of Europe, he said, hardly •uffiiced for a
goverousent prodigal by neceswity, but ecouomical
by tmste; but eves strict, it surveyed every pia of

merous operation► have influenced for sonic months
the speculations of stock-jobbing, this faVourable
result eanhot be Pit to poit d but by realizing the hopes
thtit have been inspired by opening the negocia-
(ions 6r fixing the liquidations, and these that att.
uounce the evacuation of our territory.
it is faun the persuasion that the amount of the
liquidations fixed with a just moderation will not
create a too considerable quantity of resits ; it is
from the conviction that the wisdom of the Sitve:-
reigns will acknowledge that the immense burden
of occupation exceeds ohr strength, trial even
injures the object which Europe proposes.
Hoeing •culculafed that if the present rite of
expenditure be continued; the creation of GO mil-
lions of replies would be necessary, lie added—it ass
not by imposing on the Government the hard ne-
cessity of establishing new taxes, of thereby pars-
'ping commerce and agriculture, of reducing tri
the must frightful misery the labouring classes;
that the means would be acquired of tratiquilltiing
minds and producing confideuce:

It was not by uniformly displaying itself in the
midst of the Allies that a goverinhent can acquire
the attachment tof a haughty peop;e, sensibly alive
to glory. That which would support itself only
by a foreign force must fall at the instant, when
the t,itate. weakened by a prGtectiiin so burdei:some.
would be constrained to renounce it. it w:l4 in
the strength of the social organisation, in the le-
gitimacy of his rights, in the aleirotion of his troops,
in the proved fidelity of all the depositaiies of ii a
power, that o Sovereign ought to place his coati.
deuce and find his supp nt.
Surrounded by a faithful army, strong in the sea-
timetits of Frenchmen, who desire legitimacy, the
Government holdd in its hands the elements of
power. All-imposing as are these means, if they
do not suffice for placing the monarchy of the
Charter on secure foundations, they at least afford
the time for fixing its foundations by strong insti-
tutions, established on religious and constitutional
doctrines.

Doubtless it was not by raising the throne ulna
the wreck of the laws of the Republic, or the de-
creer of the Empire, that this object was to be at-
tained. The lilies could no more bloom nu the de-
vouring desert of an anarchical licentiousness, than
ou the ensanguined soil of tyranny.

After some further
sity of adhering to the principles of the Charter, he
concluded by voting for the rejection of the project.
The Count de la Bourdonnsye•s speech produced
the liveliest sematiou in the Chamber. It was clot.
racterioed by M. Limn as a bitter diatribe apitivt
the Government.

the neces-

This speaker was, however, interrupted frequent.
ly in the course of his observations ; and, utter some
confusion, the Chausber ordered that M. de la
Butirdommye's speech should be printed.
M. Lafitte, after some observations on the pre-
sent state of France, overwhelmed by every kind
of calamity, impoverished by two successive in-
vasions, by the inclemency of the ormolus, by the
stagnation of commerce, by the deterioration of
manufacturer. and by excessive taxes, proceeded as
follows:--Under these circumstances our duty
ought not to be confined to the examination of
the probable resources aud means of a sitiAle ) ear.
We must extend our views further, that we maw
appreciate 4be whole amount of our charges, apd
all the ddliculties of our situation. This
picture will appear trimming, but it will concur,
hope, to produce great ativings, by proving that they
are indispensable, and perhaps to prevent the Nit
prolougetion of our foreign charges by demonsti et-
ing that it would be impossible to support them.
This double demonstration seems to me to be hence-
forth the only medium of affording the relief that
France stands in need of--dispelling the iippreheii-
piens of the creditors of the State, preventing tle.
despair of those who pay the imposts, and mend:en-
ing public credit. .

The General Graham, on her passage from Graies.

escapes from being wrecked. It wits so long since as
the 18th of February that she departed from Graves-
end, und, after a stormy day, anchored in the
Downs in the eveiiiiig ; pasatd Deadly Head on the
22d, when the weather became very tempestuous,
and she was thriven into Dungeness Roads, where,
at midnight of thAt dreadful day, Weibeesdry, the
4th ult. she lost two anchors sod cables, and was in
the most imminent danger of being dashed to
pieces. This was the aufortunate fate of many
vessels around her. Corowlled to remain in the
Roads, on the following Saturday another dreadful
gale came on, and it became indispensably slices-
wiry to cut the only cable she had. as the waves
were rolling over the ship, threatening immediate
destruction. She was driven before the wind into
the North Seas, and on Tuesday, the 10th, was in
55. N. put. and, on the next evening, near the dan-
gerous coast of the Text!. After !4 days heavy
storms of hail, snow, and waves running mountains
high, she anchored again in the Downs. to refit,
