THE. NEW FRENCH LOAN.
The substance of the following regulations for con-
tracting the new French loan appeared in our Afternoon
Edition of yesterday ; but as the bulk of our monetary
and commercial readers may be expected to take more
than ordinary interest in so important a financial mea-
sure, we publish at length the _Decree of the Finance
Minister. In- choosing the present time for issuing this
loan, there can be no doubt that the French Govern-
ment is eager to manifest to the world how little its
credit is impaired by the attempt upon the life of the
Royal Princes, and the emeutes against - the census in
different parts of France.
