FRANCE.

FROM THI uQNITEUR OF THE 19TH SEPTEMBER.
Commercial operations and the money tranfadions
of Banks are fo intimately conflated with political
events, that it is fufficient in many cafes to watch the
two former, in order to form an opinion of the latter.
Thus the Courfe of Exchange at London has ferved
is an index, in the min of conjedures more or lefs
vague, which have for a long tome afforded food for
public eurinfity refpeding the fublidies faid to be
deftined by the Engliffi Government for certain
Powers on the Continent. Was any one defirous of
knowing whether there was any truth in the reports
of money being tranfmitted to the Continent for this
purpofe ?-=--It was eafy to canfult the lilt of the Lon.
don Exchange, and if it was found inconfillent with
the natural pofition of commerce, it was reafonable
to conclude that the Englifh Minifler was making ex-
traordinary payments abroad. The Notes which have'
been made on this fubjed plainly (hew that fuck
payments were made in the month of January, the
Cowie of Exchange being, during that and the fol-
lowing month, per Cent. Ids in favour of England
than in the preceding months, though that was the
feafon in which England had a balance to receive on
the annual accounts current between her manufadu-
rers and the merchants of the Continent.
From a series of obfervations of this kind, it ap-
pears almon certain, that from the period we have
mentioned, the Engiilh Government has continued
to tranfmit money to foreign countries, folely for po-
litical pitrpofes. In fed, from the commencement
of March to the end of April, the Exchange on Lon-
don did not rife above I per Cent. though the fair
of Frankfort was held in the interval, which creates
every year a great demand for bills on London, to
pay for the &kith merchandize difpofed of at that
mart. Tie lunation of the Exchange during the
months of May. June, and July, difplayed fimilar
fymptoms ; that is to fay, it remained nearly at the
fame rate, without riling ahalf per Cent nntwithfiand-
ing the immenfe returns which, according to the na-
tural courfe of commerce, mull have been made in
paper ta American merchants in London, in pay-
ment of more than 200 cargoes of India merchan-
dim and Colonial produaions which they had im-
ported into Holland and the neutral Ports during
three months. Thefe eircumftanees mull have reifed
the Exchange very confiderably in favour ot Eng-
land, if the had not at the fame time been making
large remittances for an objea altogether foreign to
commerce.
If we now compare all there faas,and follow the ob-
fervations on the Rate of Exchange up to the prefent
moment, we may conclude with certainty—ill, That
the En&liffi Government has tranfrnitred funds to the
Continent during the months of January and Febru-
ary, since the rate of Exchange decreafed during that
period.--ad. That the remittances were continued
during the months of March, April, May, and June,
!ince the Exchange remained all that time below the
proportion to ilia it fhould have been raifcd by the
natural tendency of commerce, as the great files
' made on the Continent during that period rendered
remittances to England indifeenfable.-3d, That
fimilar operations have taken place during the months
of July and Auguft, fince the Exchange has fallen as
low as it was at the end of February.
SEPT'. 24.—The Engin Minifterial Journalifis,
(lays the Gazette de Franc; of the at ft of September)
continue to amufe their readers with all the hillories
of infutieetitms which come into their heads. Ac-
- cording to then, all the F.'ench armies are in a (fate
of revolt againft their commanders, and boldly
threaten to give up France to any power that chutes
to take poffeflian of it.
To the above is fubjoined the following note :
es Poor gudgeons ! they are ill informed concerning
the fpir it which reigns among the French troops. If
they knew with what fentiments and difpofitions they
are animated, they would find a great miftake in
their calculations. The only thing which they find
it difficult to endure, is the repofe of camps ; and if
there were a cafe in which they could cxprefs
content, it would not affuredly be with occurrences
that appear likely to roufe them from their inactivity.
It is probably the good difpofitions manifefied by
;he Englifh Volunteers, that infpire the politicians of
London with dreams to analagous to the military
Writ which difiinguifites the French trpops."—geir-
nal de France.
An Imperial Decree, pallid on the 16th Septem-
ber, gives new powers to the General Comtniflaries
of Police throughout the French Empire, and cre-
ates addieknal Commilfaries—it puts in a&ivity all
former regulations of Police, to watch foreigners,
_ Irgyellere, and vagrants ; to fuperintend the papas,
the hoiels, and furniffied lodgings, printing offices,
...bookfclhts' (hops, journals, priioners attempting to
((cape, neutral flaps' crews, and individuals coming
from-England. It gives them, befides, authority to
nrreft perfons upon whom any fulpicion may attach.
CONSTANTINOPLE, AUG. 20.—As the number of
Ruffian troops intreafe more and more in the Olen&
of the Mediterranean Sea, the Senator LAMBE LLt, of
Corfu, has demanded of the Poste, 'in the name of
his Republic, permiflon to purchafe grain and other
provitions in the Turkifh provinces. The Porte bas
given a negative anfwer, alledgin? that the exporta-
tions which had been already moue had confide rably
diminifhed there articles. There is no doubt, how-
ever, but M. I..AMBELLI %VW obtain his demand,
ahrou,lll tie intercefilun of M. d'lzatitsszy, the Ruf-
fian Minifter.
The Ruffian troops lately arrived here, have de-
parted fur Corti. General Gem:moss, who com-
mode them, is airrenchman by birth; he formerly
faired in• Holland. According to the report of this
Officer, ts,ooo men are to attire here in three weeks
prom Seboitopol, nlfo deflined fur Corfu.
