The Emperor let off from Boulogne the 27th inC
at four o'clock in the afternoon, to repair to Aisle.:
Chapelle ; he arrived at the head-quarters of &shier-
, witch, near SrOmer's, the fame evening. The next
morning he mceived the Mayor, the Members of the
Tribunals, the Clergy, &c. and the Officers of the
Corps of die Referee of the Cavalry. In the after-
noon, he reviewed the troops and made them ma.
panne; he appeared fatisfied with their expertnes
aad good appearance. The Emperor will continue
his joutney through Cologne, Bonne, Coblentx,
Mayne,. and Trevor, to take a detailed view of Ibis!

he had projegked, when he travelled lag year in Bel-

The Miniller of Finances, and of the public Tree-'
fury, are returned from Boulogne.: where his Ma.
jelly tranfailted bufinefs with them for leveret fowl
five days. They prefented to him the Budget of
the year 13, and the &nation of the receiptsand ex-
penditures of the year ix. It ranks from this Bate-
man that our pofition is fatisfaaory ; that however
great our expences may be, our refources are Rill
more fo ; in fine, that the (late w'll be in no need of

Peen our army augmented by the ordinary contingents
of the confcription : it is now more numerous than
it was in Nivofe, year et. the period when our armies
inundated Germany and Italy. It is true, that our
expellees, on account of the flare in which our land
army has been maintained, and the efforts which
have been made for our navy, amount to upwards
of fesen hundred millions ; but our receipts for the
year 12 have exceeded Leven hundred and fifty mil-
lions, and thole of the year 13 are infoisd for more
than (even hundred miliions. Flom this may be teen
the wifdom and forefight of the adminlitration. Al-
though
we fhould even have to fupport r Continental
war like that of the Coalitic.n of the year 7, no ex-
traordinary meafure for the finances, nor any extra-
ordinary levy for the army would be meal:try. The
