IVI.:DNESDAIrARCH 15, MM.

To such of the. Public Journals as have ex.
pressed opinions. us to the fallacy of the state.
rnents of the CuAxect.r.on of the Excaneeen
in
the House of Commons ofMonday, we think that
Right Honourable Gen tlenom infinitely obliged,
inasmuch as they have done their best to repress
the sanguine expectations of the country as to the
likely produCe of the Revenue, and us to
the mighty deal of good the finance measures of
the Administration have and will do ; and so far
have done, their possible to prevent dis:.
appointment. Anticipation lof good is n far
more pleasant' telleilon than forebodings of Oil,
and having once expressed our opinion on this
'momentous point, we are not disposed, to inter-
rupt the good humour of the nation, or:break into
any harmony the CH A NCELLOR'S Budget may
re-establish between Alinisters and the Nation,
There is, however, one point connected with
Ids subject,h• would
on w we say a few
words, and that is, the issue of Exchequer
Bills. These 'Mils are issued in anticipation of
the Revenue., and if the Revenue should happen
to equal in amount, the amount of Exchequer
Bills thus issued, why then well and good ; bUtlf,
lm the contrary, the Revenue should full off, then
indeed Mr. ROBINSON may exclaim, "Oh what a
fall was there, my countrymen," because in con
sequence of these defalcations is it, that our
unfunded floating debt is created, and thence
the necessity of pitying it .off in :a new way,
by adding it to the perinanent debt of
the country. All private Gentlemen, who
live anticipating their incomes, are said
.to be outrunning the constable ; and the
'only difference between private gentlemen
and the nation in this respect is, that
Whilst the one outruns the, constable, the other

only outruns reason, both however, tend to
vitahle destruction, and the sooner this race
between the constable and reason against the
private gentleman and the nation is done
With, the better fur all parties. The only
way to do this, is to cease to anticipate, and
that can only be eons by ceasing to issue
Rxchequer Bills. We do not, however, imagine
that so inveterate a habit can be readily, got rid
r, but. still we think something may be done
ivard4 it,
by limiting the issue, in the
`Fitt place
a sum not exceeding two.
ortii of the likely produce of the quar-
ters
revenue' It i 3 hardly possible to count

upon a real substantial surplus of income while
these anticipations are permitted, and prac-
tice sufficiently points out the truth of this
ob-
servation, in the .simple fact, that the. whole
amount of the Sinking Fund, -sitice' it was
arranged by Mr. Roamsox himself,' is scarcely
equal to the amount of Exchequer Bills now
proposed to be funded: The ease with which
money is obtained by these means, superinduces
expenditure, and every check,every obstacle ought
to be thrown in the -way of the lavish. disposition
of the public money. If money was not to be

had until the taxes had been actually received,
we think the Minister would find a way to make
his means and expences more nearly balance,
or to have a real surplus with which to make
a beginning towards reducing that immense
mountain of debt, which is the Alpha and Omega
of all our troubles and distresses.

We regret to find that the markets for colo•
tan' produce, so far from improving, are less fa-
vourable than they were last week. Coffee has
declined is., and Indigo is unsaleable. Sugnr is
in some request, but with no eppafent prospect of
any improvement in price.

The German Papers received this day contain
no political intelligence, and seem confined en-
tirely to the recital of crimes committed in Rome
and elsewhere. The health of the POPE, by
these Papers, would appear to be completely re-
established, as he attended mass in the Sextino
Chapel, and performed the very fatiguing cere-
mony of di4tributing the ashes. An estimate given
in these papers of the number of robbers in Ger-
many places it at 16,000, of whom 12,000 are
Jews. The following are extracts :

RoME, FEB. 12.
His Hennes' rode out for the first, time on llonday, when
he weather was very fine. He paid a visit to the Dowager
Queen of Sardinia, who liven in the Papal Palace on the Monte
Cavallo, and on his return stopped at the Jesuits' Cluirch.—.
The manner in which these visits were paid has excited atten.
den : the Jesuits are highly flattered, and the Queen may
perhaps be induced by this and the many other marks of atten-
tien paid her, to prolong her visit to Rome, or even to fix her
abode there entirely. On Ash-Wedneeday his Holiness not only
attended mass in the Sixtino Chapel, buttven performed the certi-
monyoftlistzibutingtheasibea, and in this fatiguing function, for
several hundred persons received the ashes, chewed a degreeof
bodily strength which astonished all those who were witnesses
of it. Among the persons who appeared to receive them; many
English were observed, which was likewise the case in the dis.
tribution of the tapers on the day of the Purification of the
Virgin : the Popes, it is well known, distribute them to any
person dressed in black who approaches the throne, without any
inquiry into the religion of the individual. The well known
Kaschiour has lately again become a subject of conversation,
but is a very unexpected manner. Our' readers will I per laps
remember that this man—a pupil of the Propaganda; by birth
a Copt, and, as far as it said, the son of a favourite of the
Viceroy of Egypt, was; expressly asked for by the latter,
as Patriarch of Memphis, and in consequence, thea'eh much
Es below the age required, was sent .by our Government, in this
capacity, to Egypt at a great expence ; but on his arrival there,
to the astonishment of everybody, be was not only not received,
but sent back in a disgraceful manner, without being ever per.
mitted Cu land.. Various conflicting reports were spread at the
time respecting this event. Some affirmed that Kaschiour's
father had:died in the interval, and that the new favourite of the
Viceroy had, out of jealousy, put away the son of his predeces.
1
sor, without his Alaster's knowledge, others considered the
whole affair as a mystification (or hoax,) anti others that
there had been, if . not a direct imposture, yet at least
an adventure
.undertaken at random. All agreed in one
pointt namely, that the Viceroy had made to the 'Pa.
' pal See the formal, and repeated proposal to send
young
Kaschlour to Egypt in the above-mentioned quality. Whin
the latter on his return landed, not in Roman or other neigh.
horning port, but (what was then considered as singular) at'
Genoa, it was reported that on his return to Rome he had been
arrested and confined in the Castle of St. Angelo. This wa-
in October or November, .1825. Since that time the matter
was no farther spoken of. All ut once we now learn, that
on the 3d of this month Enschiour was removed from .the
Castle of St. Angelo, (where he was confined in the sanie
apartMents Cagliostro once occupied), brought befbre the tribu.
nal of the Inquisition, and contkinned to death. It is said that
he' fainted away on hearing his sentence. As soon as he came
to himself, it was signified to him that his Holiness, in compas-
sion to his youth (lie is said to be under 30 years of .age), and
'especially not to give again a public example 9f severity, com-
muted the punishment of death into imprisonment for life...
Four pupils of the Propaganda were present ut the passing of
the sentence. It is affirmed that Kaschrour will be confined-for
the remainder of his life, in one of the prisons of the imprisi.
don. Nothing has transpired with respect to: his crime. An-
other cruel murder has been committed. A journeyman car.
penter had an illicit connection with the wife of a stone-mason,
who, it appears, bad some other lovers. (in the .morning
of the fith of this .month, he appointed to meet her
'at a coffee-house, Site'had scarcely entered, when the monster
rushed upon her with a knife, and, at one blow, ripped open
her body quite across. She lived -just long enough to receive
absolution from a priest,,whose hand she pressed, being unable
to speak, as a sign that she forgave her, murderer. What adds
to the enormity of the crime is, that the woman is said to have
been in the Gth month of her pregnancy. This horrible deed
has again
read such consternation in the city, that even the
most indifferent among the inhabitants are convinced of the
necessity of checking the wickedness of the populace of Rome
by more severe measures. It is drought that the object cannot
be better attained than by the establishment of a military iii.
bunal, which should pass sentence of death within 24 hours on
every convicted murderer.—(Supplement to Allgenteine ;lei.

Bfausche Nude!, the swindler, and M
captain ofAYENCE,

rim In all Germany, Switzerland, Alsace, and Lorraine, has
been brought to the Court of Assizes here, and after a trial, which
occupied several days, condemned to death. His remarkably
tine and expressive countenance has excited much interest for
him, especially among the women. His agility anti almost
supernatural strength are no less distinguished than his corm.
tenance and figure. The indictment recites, among other
adventures of. his, that he let himself down from a prison
at Bremen three stories high, and loaded with irons, swain
through the Weser, that when in the middle of the river he
received a musket shot in his leg, and yet escaped. The exe.
cution of this man, whose crimes are innumerable, was fixed
for to.day, but, has been put off, to avoid, for the present,
the collecting of a great crowd of people—considerable
irritation prevailing at present, on account of an unhappy
event, when a custoin-house officer shot a man dead who was
passing the bridge and did not immediately stand still when
he called to him. He was a citizen of .31ayence, father of a
numerous family:. The people shackedthe Cush:Up-house
officers, and the numerous Prussian and Austrian garrison had •
much trouble in restoring' tranquillity.—ln the speech of the
City Procurator on the trial of Nudel, there was some interest-
ing information respecting the existence of all the robbers in
Germany, drawn from authentic sources. The result is, that
there are in Germany 16,000 robbers, of whom no less than
12,000 are Jews.—( Bremen Gazette, ilfareltll).

THE FUNDS.
Consols—Closed yesterday ,•

Notwithstanding the exposee of the Minister's
intention of funding Exchequer Bills—the British
Market is still flat, and will probably continue
so, until suspense is relieved, by a public commu-
nication of the details of his plan. At present,
the question is, in what fund the operation will
take place. The prevalent opinion is in favour
of the Four per Cents., but there is nothing
beyond conjecture to warrant such conclusion.
Consols began this morning at 77k, from which
the price receded to 77—sellers. Subsequently
they receded, and at 1 o'clock the quotation was
774 account. The quantity of business has been
inconsiderable. Money Stock is scarce, which
makes the price a fraction more than fur ac
count, being 771.
