1' From this statement it appears that the gene-
ral navigation of France was nearly equal in the
two years I have selected, while the coasting
trade between the two periods has fully doubled
in amount ; but it will be observed that the ex-
portations of 1787 consisted chiefly of goods
Which were necessary to the colonies, or of re-
exportations of colonial produce to other ports
of Europe. At present a great proportion of
the shipping of France is sent out in ballast ;
of course much less is necessary than formerly
to the remaining French colonies, while re-ex-
portation can scarcely be said to take place at all.
" As this is a subject which seems to me to be
worthy of more attention than is generally paid
to it, I shall probably, with your permission,
return to it on some early opportunity. In the
mean time I am prevented from concluding the
subject by the dispatch of the post at an earlier
hour than usual, in consequence of the festivities
which arc now going forward in honour of hiS
Majesty's fete."

The accounts from Barnsley are very unfa-
vourable ; workmen who are willing to take work
at reduced prices are intimidated from doing so
by the threats of the turn-outs, who have not
only destroyed some of the workmen's furniture,
but have actually fired into the houses of those
who arc obnoxious to them. Surely there ought
to be a period put to such extremities!

We direct the attention of our readers to a
very sensible letter in The Sun of this day, upon
the question of Tithes, non-residence, and the
proper remuneration of the Clergy. Our Cor-
respondent takes a very popular view of the sub-
ject, and urges with much cogency of reasoning
the absolute necessity of reform. " Two ques-
tions," he says, " naturally present themselves--
are tithes the best mode of defraying the expence
of a National Church, and if so, do those who
receive the tithes, render to those who pay them
an adequate compensation ? On these two
questions I entertain a distinct opinion ; I have
no doubt that tithes are not the best mode of
paying the Church ; and as little doubt that the
Clergy do not sufficiently discharge their duty.
Now what would be the best way of paying the
Church ? Certainly that which while it pro-
vides for the comfort, and proper station of its
ministers (making the reward proportionate to
their labours), should at the same time be col-
lected with as little injury as possible to other
interests, taking care to distribute the burthen
impartially among all who may be called upon
to pay."

Then, as to the point of residence, our Cor-
respondent very justly asks, " why are the Clergy
alone, of all professions, to be doomed to carry
about with them the curse of being able to ne-
glect their duty with impunity ?" An officer in
the command of a regiment, or a ship, is not
allowed to fight shy of any particular ser-
vice on which he is ordered ; in fact, the terms
of his contract are implicit obedience to his
duties, and why should the Clergy be tolerated
in the evasion of theirs ? If a living be worth
acceptance, it is surely incumbent on the
acceptor that he should fulfil the duties of
his office. But the evil in this case, like all
others, will work its own cure. The disputes
eternally attendant upon the collection of tithes
must tend to make the Clergyman rather an ob-
ject of aversion than due reverence with his
Iparishioners. But we have no space for com-
ment ; we can only recommend the letter of our
patriotic Correspondent to the serious perusal of
all whom it may concern. For our own part we
cordially agree in the justness of his remarks.

A marriage is said to be in contemplation be-
tween Mr. BETIIELL WALKONI), ALP. for Sudbury, and
Lady JANET ST. CLAM, the amiable daughter of Lord
ROSSLYN. —Dublin Morning Register.
