PARIS; Ap.im. 22.—The report of an attempt to
,poison the Emperor of Austria in his itaii,th jour-
ney has been in no wise confirmed. Letters and
papers from Milan to the 14th instant say not a
-word ni,owthe subject. The Emperor is now at

Rome, where he bas been received by the Pope
with every mark of respect anal friendship,—
The report, therefore, that he bad gone to
Rome to procure an union of the States of the
church to his Lombardo-Venetian territory, merits
not the slightest attention. The _report of eon-
spiracie3 all over the world are received and pro-
pagated among the Ultras here with great avi-
dity; but, notwithstanding what has been said
about a combination of students to assas4inate
Kotzebue, there is no foundation for the rummer.
I have seen a letter from a diplomatist at Cads-
rube, which says, that after every inquiry it ap-
pears Saud acted without accomplices.

COMMITTEE OF FINANCE-SECOND REPORT.

The Committee of Finance have presented a
Second Report, which relates to the Army
mates for the enrrent year. They. eornmence by
congratulating the House that the suite of of in
Europe condoned to preserve such in appearance
of'tranquillity, as permitted the %.‘ ithdrawing of the
Army of Occupation trotn France. This measure
had necessarily kd to a great dilninution of the
military force of this country ; a number of men
equal in amount to the whole army returned from
France, having been either reduced, or placed un-
der orders for reduction. Of the home force vot-
ed in the Estimates' of last year, a reduction of
9,142 rank and file has taken place, which, in
addition to those reduced after evacuating France,
will ultimamly effect a diminution of force
amounting to 34,118 officers and men. The
}Mount of reduction actually effected last year,
amounts to 26,042. The total nutnher of men
estimated for the service of the present year, ex-
clusively of those to be employed in India,
amounts to 69,794 men. We have mentioned
above, the actual reduction which took place in
the course of last year: It will he gratifying,
however, to state the aggregate of reductions made
in the last two years, which amount to 55,802
officers, non-commissioned officers, and privates.
—The total sum to be voted for the ordinary
services of the Army for 1819, amounts to
6,582,8021. 12s. 3:1.
