ble to the prefer.t. If it has candidly laid before
you a detail of the firll matures of the Public
Adminiftration, it will, with equal fincerity, in•
form you what has been received and expended,
film the day of its inftallation, till the end of tipe
month of July.
if This Ratement, while it will prove to voii,
that during the whole courfe of this period, not
copper of the public money has been carried out
of the territory of the Republic, will inform you
exaalv of what has entered the treafury, and of
what has been paid, either on the fcore of arrears,
or for the current fervice ; and in attentively
analyfing it you will fee, Citizen Legiflators, that
the current receipt has fallen thort of the expellee
by 4,149,222 livres—a difference which is covered
by 3,299,322 livres of arrears, and 850,000 Lyres
borrowed on intereft.

"It is to be obferved alto that the diminution
ordered by the decree of Ventofe Bth (Feb. 27)
of t,t50,000 lines in the contribution of each
month for the French army, which could not pro.
duce its full efFea in the months which hare
elapfed, will Make its advantages to be felt in the
following ones. We milli not forget in particular,
that what we know of the paternal intentions rf
our Prefident, gives us reafon to hope for fuccel:
five reductions in the contribution for the arm;,
and that if he acquired in the war fo many titles
to our admiration and gratitude, he acquires no
fewer daily in peace by the generofity of his con-
du&.

44 But it is now to be obferved that the .diminu.
tion of the French troops naturally produces at
the fame time the neceility of augmenting the
Italian troops, and means mutt be provided for
their fupport: befides, as the greater part of the
expences unavoidably occafioned by the infialla.
tion of the new Government have not been made
good in the months which have elapfed, the?
mutt be carried to thole which are to come; in
the lait place, that the organifation of the diplo.
matic part is abfolutely imperfee; that the pub.
lie fafety demands the formation of a corps of
Gendartierie; that the repairs of the barracks are
exceedingly urgent; that the political importance
of the rqad of the Simplon, the labours of whist
were fufpended, requires that they (hould be im.
mediately retuned; that as thole of the fortifican
Lions will require much time, it would be imprn•
dent to delay them; that providing provifions and
the efiablifitments required by our military fyf.
tem, founderies, manufadories of arms, &c. all
things indifpenfably neceffary, _ mull be taken
into account in our calculations.",

The next °Ned which engages the attention d
the Reporter is the refources, which he reduces to
the three following general heads :—Loans,Taxes,
and Sales. " A nafcent State," continues he,
" snug not attempt the reifing of money by loans,
becanfe it has no right to hope for favourable
terms; and it would be hazardous to increafe the
indite& taxes, the details - of which are not tut&
ciently known,fince, in the prefent Rate of things,it
would be impoffible to make accurate calculations
in regatd to our internal and external commercial
relations. We mna then necefrarily have recourfe
to dire& impofitions and the national property:
and it is between thefe two parts that the Govern.
ment propofes to you to divide the extraordinary
charges, by re-eftablifhing the impoß of fix dr.
niers railed Taft year for the current, and by plae•
ing for the reft of the Turn the national property
at its difpofal."
The Reporter concludes in the following mane
ner:G4 What Italian heart can forget the fcourges
by which the preceding years were dillinguifhed !
' But the fame misfortunes and the fame fcourges
may Rill mark the years which are to come! I,ct
the rich call to mind the forced loans ; let tl:e
landholders recollect the impofition of one bun-
dyed and loft? deniers ; let the Mid tiers of Woriltip
bring to remembrance_ the outrages they bad to
furor let the whole nation refiea on the vela•
dons of the Commifaries, and the dcfpotifm of the
Military ; the infolence and audacity of fictions,
and the violence and requifitions, with calamities
of every kind, and let them then decide.
