FRENCH PAPERS.

INOU THU GAMINES DE FRANCE, JUNE 14.

,•• Oar Landon correspondent informs us that the Bri-
tish Government has formally decla.ed that it would
not stiffer the blockade • f the Dardanelles to be emended
10 the cna is in. the vicinity of that strait. It is not
;Nought that this determination of the 'latish Govern-
anent can lessen the good uncle:standing which•esists
betwee i the Government of his Britannic Majesty and •
'that or his Imperial Majesty.; for it is asserted that the
enteosiois of the bli,ckade of the Dardanelles was not
authorized by Russia, and that this act of Admiral
Ricord, who has taken upon himself to establish the'
accessory blockades. is disavowed by his Goternnient.
The news which we now snaoance is perfectly consistent

with wh,t• we published some time ago, founded on
letters from St. Peteisbuigh..
'As to the bloak We or. the Dardauelles, our corres-
pondent has not stated thrit it w 4.1 to be raised. bus only'
.thatit war imagiaektbat rts inutility. and the ir.iiatibtr
iciiroduced, Might eventually determine the Russia...
'eAbinet to put ail end to it.

t

An article in I,he Times is doubtless in recollection,
wherein it was stated that the British. Government
w..uld never permit the extension of the blockade to
take place. Now all .the morning journals, in trans-
l'ating this article, have omitted the word .esteasion, sn
that. their reaJers must have thought ihat),it ..was the
blockade of the. Daidsnelles itself which the British.
Government, thiough the channel of The Timm, de-
cl 'red that it would not tolerate. But this blockade
his been secognised already by kogland, and will,
Joubllessitontinfie to be respected, thi.ugh it cannot
be disputed that Russia. in establishing it, has, contra-
vened,.not a convention, it may be granted, but cer-
thinly an engagement_a promise which should have
had the force of a foinial treaty. . .

The prnceedings on this 811 in the Committee of the
House of Lords during the lest week have been carried
on with unusual vigr u'. The attendance of Peers has
been greater than has been ever witnessed in a Private
13tH ComMittee daring many years past. The parties in
attendance have also been numerous and anxious.
It was stated in evidenee by Mr: Scott. on the part of
the Cm potation, that the amount of money already
• inwards the erection ,'of. the new bridge, was
669 5081. et which 664.42f1. had been expended. The
amount of their resources Was 281.7221. The amount
of their present engagements was 220 5991. leaving in
sbeis hands q surplus of 61,1531. applicable I,n the for-
Mation of the.approaches, aver and above the sum
ne-
cessary for the completion of the bridge: The capital
debt due to the orphans of the City ,pf London was
,anitilli!ateJ nine years since. From acalculation which
had bee, made, it was enn-idered that a tax of 4d.
.and 6J. per ehaldron, on the coals erktering the port of
London, would produce sufficient to borrow a minim
of money at four per cent. and that the debt m.ght he
eitingnished at the end of twerrif six years. 13r the
sth and Gth of William and Maiy, by which the Or-
phan: Fund was established, the sum of 747.0001. was
given to the Corporation fnr the less which they had
sustained by the shutting of the Exchequer and by the
fire ..f London. The Corporation had contributed
750.000&out of the revenue in respect for the deficiencies
referred to. They had also peid 596.0001. in respect of
various improvements which had been charged upon
that fund on the voluntary continuation of the contribo- .
tion made by them. Al oAether they had paid
1,34.6.0001. • Amongst other Wilk itnisrovemeets
charged. upon this. fund was 21070001.• for building
Blackfriars Bridge; 50,000/ for rebuilding Newgate;
10.0(X)1. fir repairing the Royal Eireharge ; 11.0001. for
building a Sessions Hoilse for the county of Middlesex;
5 COOL for building a new Sessions House for the county
Middlesex ; 3410001. for the purchase id the tolls on
London Bridge; 80.0001. was contributed towards the
clearing of the site for the New Post Office,; and the re-
mainder was expended in widening streets and effecting
other great public improvements. There yet remained
195,0001. chargeable upon the Orphine Fund. The
Corporation, in expectation of the 11 5001. contributed
annually by them towards what is called the Orphans'
Fund rerertinglo them, had raised upwards of 200.1401.
for improving Fleet Market, and effecting other public
improvements.

The opposing Counsel, and several Noble Lards,
praised the manner in which the accounts were kept,
for its exceeding clearness.
The Counsel, on behalf of certain coal-owlets in the
North, against the Bill, urged that it Ili.' tiocoustits-

a tax had ever been considered 'a blast in legislation.—
,All expesience proved hoW liable such imposts were to
