" Circumstances have imposed extraordinary burdens
ott the country, which has understood their necessity
and courageously supported them. By means of the
financial measures voted last session, our patriotic army
has been maintained on a respectable footing of defence;
we have sustained employment, the public treasury has
been able to fulfil faithfully all its obligations, and the
burden of the floating debt has ceased to press on credit.
The future will recompense the sacrifices of the past.
" The subsidies destined for extraordinary wants have
been voted only until the Ist of September next, but,
thanks to the prudent reserve which we bad imposed
on ourselves with respect to the expenditure, the crea-
tion of new burdens will not be necessary ; and unless
unforeseen complications interpose, the budgets already
voted will suffice till the end of the year.
" All our efforts, Gentlemen, should tend to maintain
a good financial situation for Belgium; for on such a
situation its strength and security mainly depend. The
normal budget of the expenditure will be reduced. My
Government is resolved to effect by degrees economical
reductions.
" Several imposts will be fundamentally modified, and
in the partition of those burdens, we shall not lose sight
of the duty of sparing those individuals whose livelihood
is gained by their labour alone. With real solicitude,
we shall continue to seek out all the best measures for
improving and raising the condition of the laborious
classev.
" We are passing through a period full of difficulty
for European society. Belgium will not allow herself to
be diverted from the wise and sure path on which she
has entered. By happy union she has been enabled to
reconcile stability with progress, and order with the
practice of liberty in every shape. In order to keep on
that path, and suceessfully accomplish her mission of
peace and labour, she has only to have faith in herself
and remain united. You, gentlemen, who faithfully
express her sentiments and her wishes, and who are en-
trusted with her dearest interests, will worthily respond
to her expectations. You will afford to the Government
that kind co-operation which it requires in order to fulfil
its difficult task; and then again our common efforts will
have deserved well of our country."

On concluding the speech his MAJESTY was
greeted with loud cries of " Vive le Roi !"

SECONDARIES'.-(THIS DAY.)

(Before Mr. Secondary POTTER).

rINCHADI V. BATHAM.-"CONTINUING" AN ACTION.

This was an action to recover the value of goods sold.

The plaintiff's attorney said the action was originally
brought for 21. 13s , but had been stayed on condition of
defendant paying the debt and costs. He paid the debt
and several instalments, which, however, did not cover
the costs, and it had therefore become necessary to
bring the case before the jury; but as the debt was
extinguished he need not adduce evidence, and a verdict
for nominal damages would suffice for the case.
A juror said he did not see how he could find a ver-
dict even for a farthing without evidence, and still
more so in the face of an admission that the debt had
been paid.
The Learned SECONDARY said that by defendant not
Pleading at the time the action was brought, he admitted
Something was due, and although the debt was settled
the action could be continued to recover the costs, al-
though coming before the Court entailed a considerable
additional expense.
The jury gave a verdict for is.
TURQUAND AND ♦NOTHER V. CURTIS.
This was an action by the assignee of a bankrupt to
recover for goods sold. There was no defence, and a
verdict was given for 281.

MARLBRO'-STREET-(THIS DAY.)
Pederick Beevor, who described himself as a reporter,
*IA brought before Mr. Bingham, charged with having
!tolen a guinea, the property of Mr. Benjamin Caunt,
landlord of the Coach and Horses, St. Martin's-lane.
, Tho prosecutor stated, that in the month of November,
1845, the prisoner was sitting in his parlour, while wit-
-11e!s was tossing a particular friend for a bottle of wine.
Witness was tossing with an old guinea, and just as he
had placed the coin on the table his wife came and called
him
out of the room. He went out, leaving the guinea
°2l the table. On his return he was surprised to find
that the prisoner had bolted, taking the guinea with
him. Witness subsequently wrote to him, and received
the following letter in reply:—

" Friday, Nov. 15-45.
" Dr.,Ben,—l only just this moment have discovered
that I am in possession of a guinea which belongs to
You. Knowing that such a thing is a rarity, allow me
to assure you that you shall have the selfsame piece re-
turned. I should have sent it by this, but was afraid of
its being lost. I shall be in town again on Wednesday
°1" Thursday next, when you may rest contented that I
shall restore it ; or if I meet with any one whom I
Allow to be trustworthy, and is coming to town, I shall
depute the party to deliver it.
" Your obedient servant,
" FREDK. BEEVOR."
Witness, however, never received the guinea as pro-
rued, and although he had repeatedly met him since,
had no opportunity of giving him in charge till this
The prisoner denied the felonious intent, and said his
mother
would receive her pension in a few days, when
e would pay Mr. Caunt his guinea. He would give a
tlarantee for the amount if Mr. Caunt would accept it.
'l% Caunt declined doing so, and prisoner was remanded
till Monday.
