THE ARMY AND NAVY ESTI-

MATES OF FRANCE

The Journal des Debate states that the credits demanded
by Marshal Soult for tue service of the war department
merit serious consideration, inasmuch as the use the Mar-
shal intends to make of those funds is the result of the
spitcm of defence adopted after the Treaty of the 15th of
July, and according to the opinion pron,,unced by the
Committee of Defence of 1836. The Minister of War
demands 75,000,000 f. for the construction of four fortresses
and one fort, and for the repairs of 32 fortresses, seven
forts, and two castles, divided between the points which
require to be defended.
The four new fortresses are Vourziers, upon the direct
road from Luxembourg to Rheims, destined to form an
entrepot to reinforce the large passage left open for an in-
vadrng army between Sedar. and Verdun. The construc-
tion of this foraess is estimated at 9,000,000 f. Langres,
considered as a strategetic point of great importance, is to
become a position of the first consequence for the defence
of the kingdom, as well for tie frontiers of the Jura as for
the interior ;it will cost 7,000,000 t. Thann, which will
connect Beort and New Brissvh, will cost 6,000,000 f.
Les Roussel, to serve as an entrepot for the line of opera-
tions towards Paris by Auxonne and Dijon, will coat
5,000,000 f. The new fort of Glariles will cost
1,500,000 f. ; it is intended to defend the head of the valley
of Barcelonnette. The sum total required for the new
fortresses to be erected amounts to 28,500,000 f.

The most considerable credits to be applied to the re-
pair of fortresses are the following.:—Cherbourg,
8,000,000 f. ; Le Havre, 5,000,0001. • Toulon, 5 000,000 f.,
for new naval establishments ; Bayonne, 2,000,000 f. ;
Brest, 2,000,0001., to erect detached forts; Sedan,
2,000,0001., to strengthen the fortifications on the left
bank of the Meuse. Dunkirk, 1,h60,0001. Grenoble,
1,000,000 f.
The cost of the various military buildings required by
the engineer department is estimated at 74,500,0001. ;
this will include new stables for 27,500 horses, additional
barracks for 50,000 infantry, military hospitals to contain
30 000 additional beds, new magazines to contain 900,000
metrical quintals of grain or flour, new powder magazines
for 1.500,000 kilogrames ; in fine, a penitentiary for 300
convicts and 14 provisional prisons.
The Minister of War demands altogether 254,000,000 f.
fir extraordinary works, comprising 140,000,000 f. for the
fortifitions of Paris.

Tho Minis:er a the Navy requires 44.000,000 f. to com-
plete the breakwater atCherbourg, and to construct a new
arsenal in the town. 1,000,000 f. for the construction of
quays around the new basin at St. Malo. For the con-
s•rectinn of fort Bayard, intended to defend the roads at
the Island of Aix, 2 500,000 f. For en addition to the
arsenal at Toulon, 3,000,000 f. In fine, 1,500,000 f. to
enlarge the barracks in the harbours of Brest, Rochefort,
and Toulon ; in all 52,000,000 f.
The Minister of Public Works will have to expend
188,269,0001. in the year 1641, and 228,269,000 f. in the
years 1842 and following. These credits are intended to
finish the Royal roads and maritime ports ir, Corsica, to
improve the internal navigation of the kingdom, to este-
blish new canals, which will cost more than 68,000 000 t.,
and to make rail-roads, which will cost 40,000 000 f. In
fine all those credits will require a sum total of 722 538 000 f.
The different committees, adds the Journal des Debats,
appointed to report to the Chamber of Deputies on the
law brought forward to legalize those credits, assembled
in their committee rooms, and appointed their secretaries
after an uninteresting debate, in which General Paixhans,
who was appointed secretary in the Bth Committee, ob-
served, that after what had just taken place on the coast. of
Syria, it would be impossible to leave the coasts of France
without defence, and that although he was aware that the
Government was occupied with the subject, be regretted
that no bill bad been introduced for that purpose.
" The project of law, calling out 80,00.) recruits of the
class of 1840, will have for its object," says the Journal des
Debuts, " to add, after deducting the 7.725 men destined
for the navy, about 65,000 men to the army, and raise its
effective force to 503,000 men. The Minister of War
intends, in the course of the session, to present a second
project of law, which would authorise him to levy also the
contingent of the class of 1841. In this manner the
Chamber would vote the Contingent.law at the same time
as the Budget, and grant the Minister the funds and men
necessary to place the army on the footing which it had
fixed. The census returns would thus be prepared at the
commencement of the year, and the levies effected during
the good season. This measure, adds the Deba's, will
place at the disposal of Government all the men whom
circumstances might render it imperative to call into
aotivc service.

HOLLOWAY'S OINTMENT AND PI L Ls.--
Wondcrful Cure of Cancer in the Breast.—Mrs. Mitchell,
-,-;fe of Captain Mitchell of Calcutta, arrived at Mivart's
Ihtel in October last, with nearly all her left breast eaten
away, and literally in dying state. In two months the
sole of the cancerous flesh was removed, the dreadful dis.
ease complelely eradicated, and the breast is now nearly
ail covered with new flesh, and by the use alone of the

used in large quantities, and always with the pills, when
any kind of bleeding cancers or bad breasts may be cured.
