The rise of the French Funds, which has been
steady and of long continuance, is taken here as a favor'
able omen for the preservation of tranquillity in Europe'
Some of the Paris letters, however, adopt a different yien,i
of the question, and ascribe the rise to manoeuvres resort,
to by the French Minister of Finance, to counteract n,
'
i
large speculations lately entered into for a fall. One
the plans attributed to him with this object is that of re''
fusing to accept payment in full on the new luau, that the,
,
subscribers might not be furnished with a supply of stork
to throw upon the market. This, however, is not acelti'
rate, as there are, letters in town from agents to Engli'
houses, announcing their having completed such paymengL4

more power, and much less scruple in employing it,
...j"
operations On the Funds, than is the case in England,
the purchases for the sinking fund are not at fixed period*
but take place at his discretion, and he has generally fres/
other sources a pretty large supply of ready money. Titer
exists also a motive for engaging in such transactions inll:1
which would make them less culpable, if the charge were
admitted, than at other periods, which is, that the
extraordinary decline in the French Funds is believed t.
have been brought about in some measure by the mac
e'
nations of the Carlist party, with whom profit or lose 'l';
came secondary considerations, if they could succeed ,1,
embarrassing the Govt rnment, and create the impress';,-
in foreign countries that France was on the eve of a get
ral convulsion. That the Ministers have acted on t'.l
supposition is evident, from many of their late operati,
in the money mar ket. The error on the part of those WI
have noticed those operations, and also those of the spec:l'
u
lators for the fall, has ben its ascribing far too great
portance to both. However large the scale of speculat.tes
in either case may have been, the object must have
if it bad not had the concurrent support .of the alcm'i,f),;
interest generally. In the Ministry of Al. t4yirrk
class were led into sigLl errors": out of which their still;
glen to escape did infinite mischief to public credit, 'V,
