ANTICIPATED BUDGET OF THE F.RENOI7

EMPIRE.

The Moniteur, of yesterday, published a long
report from M. Magne, the Minister of Finance,
with his estimate of the budget of revenue and ex-
penditure for the year 1859. The conclusion at
which he arrives is stated as follows :
To obviate any chances of error, and to secure us
as much as possible from mistakes, we were bound
to maintain and even to carry out further, in the
estimates for the budget of 1859, the rules of pru-
dence that have presided over the preparation of the
two preceding budgets. It is with this view that
the receipts and expenses have been calculated.
With regard to the receipts, I have taken for a basis
the existing taxes, calculating their yield from the
results experienced in 1857 or the estimates already
admitted for 1858. This mode of proceeding per-

mits us to reserve for unforeseen cOntingencies^the
considerable increase that in all probability will be

produced in the course of 2 years 1858 and 1859.
As for the budget of expense the estimates are made
in an inverse ratio—that is to say, with all the ac-
curacy that is possible, and including in the esti-
mates such increase as will be necessary for im-
proving and developing certain departments of the
public service. Thus a new sum of six millions of
francs is added to the expenditure for personal re-
muneration. This appropriation will advance one
step, and, till something better can be done, the
just reform undertaken by his Majesty ; the sum is
distributed among the different ministerial depart-
ments, in order to be applied to the humblest 'sala-
ries, including those of the magistracy (the Tri-
bunals of the First Instance). The eleven millions
additional for the minister of marine in 1858 are
maintained for 1859, and increased by a freeh sum
of eight millions to promote that most national
work, the re-construction of the fleet and comple-
tion of the naval ports. Several ministerial depart-
ments, that of the Interior, that of War, that of
Public Instruction and Worship, and that of Agri-
culture and Trade, receive grants more in con-
formity with their wants. Lastly, I have with the
greatest care, in order to insert them in the budget,
taken account of all expenses relating to the
public debt, or such as would accompany an
augmentation of the produce of our taxes and the
greater part of which, though obligatory, have only
been discharged hitherto by meansof supplementary
credits. On c ,mparing the charge thus estimated
more liberally than ever, with the yield of thetaxes
estimated with great moderation, we find a surplus
of revenue amounting to about 48 millions cf
francs. I have the honour of proposing to your
Majesty to take from this sum 40 millions, and
restore them to the amount set apart for the sink-
ing fund. The rest will remain as a balance of

revenue to meet unforeseen contingencies, together
with the increase from the taxes, which will be all
the greater from the fact that the improvement in
the years 1858 and 1859 will not have been dis-
continued beforehand. Such are the bases of the
preparatory project which I have the honour to
propose should be laid before the Council of State.
If your Majesty will now cast a glance at the
general situation of our finances, you will see that
all essential elements are favourable, and are such
as ought to inspire the greatest confidence. 'lt
would, in face, be neither just nor consistent to take
as a characteristicproof of our situation those passing
events which exert a temporary influence upon our
public credit, such as the degree to which property is
encumbered, the critical state of affairs in neighbour-
ing countries, the reaction of which is felt by ourselves
aT,d the panic which results therefrom. Public
opinion has good cause for uneasiness when the pre-
servation of order at home or abroad is imperilled,
and authority put in jeopardy, when the Treasury
is embarrassed, when the floating debt is excessively
increased, when loans are it:emu-lent' when the bud-
get shows a deficit, when the harvests are deficient,
when the progress of social prosperity is stopped,
when trade becomes slack or insecure. But must
we not in fairness acknowledge now, that there never
has been more entire tranquillity than at present,
that authority has never been stronger or more re-
spected, that our foreign policy has never been
more popular and national, and that our relations
with foreign governments have never been more
perfect 7 The treasury is in an excellent situation.
For several years past the amount of the deficits has

rt
of rentes h'as been indefinitely closed, and the sink-
ing fund can be re-established. Providence, by
giving us abundant hart ests, has delivered us from
our principal danger. The truly marvellous in-
crease of the indirect taxation and revenues is not
only advantageous in facilitating financial reforms,
but attests moreover the development, to an un-
hoped..for degree, of the industrial activity of the
country. Between 1837 and 1847 the amount of
imports and exports together has, in fact, been
raised, for what is specially French trade, from
1,664,000,000 f. to 3,884,000,000 f. The progress
of navigation has bees at equal rate. During the
same interval the arrivals of gold and silver have
exceeded the exportation by more than 1,400,000 f.
In the nine first months of 1847 the excess of im-
portation (of bullion) is to the value of 62,000,000 E
In reality, therefore, the currency is far from being
weakened ; but the employment of specie has been
enlarged, in proportion to the extent of business.
Trade and manufactures, which were docile
to the repeated counsels which the govern-
ment bestowed upon them, and thus refrained
from an abuse of credit, now obtain the reward
of their prudence. It is remarkable that
during years of such difficulty, and amidst the
commercial disasters by which most places in Eur3P°
and in the New World have been, and still continue
be, afflicted, the amount of bankruptcies amongst
ourselves has followed, as it were, a declining course.
The Bank of France was returning to liberal Dacia"
ures at this time when, constrained by the examPl°
of foreign banks, it is forced, iu order to protect its
reserves, suddenly,to raise its rate,of discount. Bab
it must not be forgotten that this is essentially a
temporary measure—that the Bank at this moment
possesses fifty millions more in specie than it PO"
sessed at the same period last year, while, thanks
to the good harvest, it has not the same demands to
meet. Upon other occasions, though not so well
armed against ti em as it is now, the bank has sup'
mounted difficulties far more serious by observing
a prudent, legieimate, and rational course, an'
without resorting to any of those empirical means
which a motive of mistaken self-interest might re-
commend, but which are condemned by the exPe,*:,
rience of every age and country, and which wow'
be repudiated by the Bank of France not less ener:
geticelly than by the government. The investment
offered by our recent loans, the absence of a sinking
fund at the moment when it was most required, and
the completion of railway debentures, have placed
the public funds in a situation of some difficulty
But, on the one hand, the allotment of the Bente°,
which seemed likely to be a work of time, is nom
far advanced, and since 1854, the date of the .firs's,
loan, the Treasury alone, on account of the depart-
ments, has purchased Rentes to the amount of more
than 400,000,000 fr. Oa the other hand, until the
sinking fund, re-established for 1859, shall be en-
abled to operate, the Rentes which are to be Pur-
chased on account of the grant appropriated to the
army will produce some effect in 1858. With reil
gar d to the railway debentures, as their works" an
vance, the urgent wants of the railway comPanifg
naturally tend to diminish ; their budget for 183'
will show this—and I hope, moreover, that measures
mey be taken, by an agreement between the coin-
panics, the Bank of France, and the governments
to regulate the issue of their debentures.
The Minister finally winds up his report with
declaration that the state of the country is now fan'
damentally sound and good, and entitled to ail con-
fidence and credit.
