wards of five times as much as the amount for each

individual in France.
44 In the United States of America the receipts of
the Customs, which, previous to the two last years
of war, formed almost the only revenue, produced
annually 16 millions of dollars. This sum divided
among seven millions of inhabitants, gives about 12
francs for each individual ; to which must be added
the local taxes peculiar to each state, amounting to
about 11 francs more, making 23 francs for each in-
dividual. Hence it follows that France has the
advantage over both of these nations. These outlines
are necessary to chew the grounds of confidence
which remain to us, and which ought to encourage
an active and industrious nation like ours to prose-
cute the useful enterprises of agriculture, manufac-
tures, and commerce.
44 The Minister, on the second branch of his sub-
ject, inculcated the necessity of punctuality and rigid
honour with regard to public engagements, remark-
ing that Governments, like individuals, never, with
impunity, lea sight of this principle. To a failure
in this, which he attributed more to bad rulers
than to the nation, he ascribed the comparative
low rank of France ; which he said was now under
the just level of her resources and population.—
“ The present Government think they cannot give a
better pledge of their sincerity than by paying the
kna,fide debts c,ntracted by the late Government."
He then eulogized the Financial Systems of Eng-
land and the United States

U The first example is still furnished us by Eng•
land, whose Government, by an inviolable fidelity,
has fulfillesi all its engagements towards its creditors,
has remained in a condition, notwithstanding twenty
years of war, in spite of the fetters and prohibitions
which expelled, from almost every port on the Con-
tinent, her ships and merchandise, to borrow -every
year, for upwards of ten years, at a moderate interest,
' more than 25 millions sterling—a sum equal to our
ordinary revenue, estimated at 600 millions of francs.

40 And if the state of the exhaustion to which
,twenty years cf Revolution have brought us, be ob•
}Acted against us, I shall answer, by pointing to
.the
analogous example of America; where the Govern-
ment, by following the system which we are desirous
to see adopted, had raised itself from the most cri-
tical, to the most proiperous circumstances."

The Minister concluded by remarking, that the
only thing wanting to secure the prosperity of Franco
is a Sinking Fond ; which he hopes to be able to in-
troduce into next year's Budget.
•• Thus you see, Gentlemen, that the King is de.
termined, that all the Acts of his Government shall
bear a character of probity conformable to the eleva-
tion of his own mind ; and which, by providing for
the interests of all, shall inspire a just confidence in
the minds of all.
•• It is indeed a new era, when the justice and mo-
deration of the Prince, whose presence here has re-
stored peace to the world, will every day make us
more sensibk of the reciprocal utility of virtues so
necessary to secure among the French the powerful
guarantee of honour ; and, -may we be permitted
to hope, that the influence granted so long by other
countries to the manners of our nation. will generalise
throughout the whole of Europe that moderation
which has become more necessary than ever to the
happiness of the subject, and the power and glory of
the Sovereign." •

NUREMBERG, SEP rENIBER
We are assured that the Court of Austria has re-
fused permission to Madame Bacchiochi (Bonaparte's
sister. and the wife of a waiter in a brothel), to come
to Vienna, which she wished to do. She has there-
fore embarked at Trieste for Italy, and has proceeded
to Bologna.
Very important negotiations are going on between
the Court of Vienna and the Cabinet of Naples.
These negotiations give rise to various rumours, but
the most prevalent is, that their chief object is to in-
ince the King of Naples to cede his Kingdom to
King Ferdinand of Sicily, and to accept a proper in-
demnity.
Several Austrian regiments keep going to, and re-
turning from, Italy : these movements have of course
given rise to the news of the pretended warlike de.
monstrations of Austria, with which the public has
been for some time entertained.
