must be supplied from the i\ckats- of the
of the people. Let no one then be deceived
by the hypocritical outcry of the landlords and
the farmers having for a time the same interests
as landlords—that a repeal of the malt tax will
make beer cheap to the poor man. Let the
landlords allow him to get as cheap bread as he
can, and afterwards talk of giving him cheap beer.

We have received a copy of an interesting
report from the Universal Statistical Society
of France on the progress of the French
trade from 1716 to 1832, a period of 116 years,
from which it appears that the imports have
risen from 65,079,000 francs to 786,017,000
francs, and the exports from 106,216,000 franc
to 807,161,000 francs. The rise has been
gradual, with the exception of the year 1825,
when the imports and exports were higher than
at any period before 1830, and of the year imme-
diately following the last Revolution, when the
imports underwent a material diminution ; but
last year they had again risen to nearly the
amount of 1830, and the exports had increased
from 628,493.000 francs, the amount in 1830
to 807,161,000 francs. This improvement in
the trade of France, notwithstanding the absurd
restrictions to which it is still subjected, shows
the strength of her internal resources, and ought
to open the eyes of the Northern Powers to the
importance of preserving peace with a country
possessing means not only of defence, but of
annoyance. When the Chamber of Deputies
shall have abolished the restrictions by which
the trade is shackled, we shall expect to see a
still greater improvement.

The Marquis of FUNCHAL, the Ambassador
from the Court of Portugal to this country,
died yesterday morning at Brighton, at the
advanced age of seventy-five, after a very few
hours' illness, having retired to rest in his usual
health. The Marquis was much esteemed 1.1
the KING, with whom he had the honour of
being acquainted for a period of forty years, and
had the reputation of being an honest and con-
sistent liberal. His mission to this country was
originally special, but by a recent decision of
the Portuguese Ministry, it had been arranged

that he should continue to act as Ambassador
until a resident Minister Plenipotentiary could
be appointed. His services to Don PEDRO
were entirely gratuitous, although his fortune
was limited. He was, more than forty years
ago, Ambassador to GEORGE THE THIRD
from King JOHN of Portugal, but subse-
quently resided for a long time at Rome,
where, at the time of his death, he had
a splendid palace. The brother of the Marquis,
the Conde de LINHARES, one of the wealthiest
mine proprietors in the Brazils, is expected here
in the course of a few weeks on his way to
Lisbon, having, as it is understood, been in-
vited by Don PEDRO to take a leading part in
the Ministry. The Marquis of FUNCHAL was
fond of literature, and had written two or
three works, but he was by no means a
profound politician or a skilful diplomatist, and
he owed his appointment here as ambassador
entirely to his rank among the old nobility of
Portugal, and to the circumstance of his being
on intimate terms with some of the principal
personages at our Court. The Chevalier DE
LIMA, the Portuguese Charge d'Affaires, who
had received notice of removal to Paris, will
probably continue here, in consequence of the
death of the Marquis, until some other arrange-
ment can be made by the Portuguese Ministry,

We have received German papers to the
24th instant. The only important part of their
contents is an article from Vienna, apparently
from authority, contradicting, in the most un-
qualified terms, the statement in some of the
French papers of an intended Italian Confe-
deration, of which the Emperor of AUSTRIA
was to be at the head.

It appears by a letter from Trieste, in these
Papers, that there has been a total change
in the Greek Ministry. We are not suffi-
ciently acquainted with the names of the new
Ministry, to say whether they have been appointed
through Russian influence, but such is proba-
bly the case. An article from St. Petersburgh
states that there is great activity in the War
Department of the Russian Cabinet, and that
a further levy of recruits is expected.
