GERMAN PAPERS.

• VIENNA, JUNE 4.
The four imperial patents with regard to the '
finances, have now made their appearance.
The first, which ordains that no new paper.money
having a forced circulation shall be issued, and sets
forth the mode in which the old paper money shall
be extinguished, has the following introduction :
" The severe shocks which, for the last twenty-five
years assailed Europe, have compelled us, since the
very commencement of our reign, to take part in un-
interrupted desolating wars, which endangered the
safety and independence of the empire—objects of
inestimable value both to Sovereigns and their people.
Accordingly, for the maintenance of ours, we neither
could nor might spare any efforts whatever.
" The developement of the whole force of the
State, however, occasioned expenses which far ex-
ceeded the means of the payers of taxes. We invoked
the confidence of our people. Paper, having the value
of gold, enabled us to meet the pressing wants of the
State, and to maintain the dangerous conflict, of
which the renowned termination has replaced the
Monarchy in possession of those provinces that were
torn from it, and has anew confirmed their security
and independence. Our first care has been to restore
our disordered finances ; and ever since the last ne-
gociations for peace we have been engaged in piepar-
mg the necessary means for attaining that end.
" The result has corresponded to our efforts; and
we experience particular satisfaction on seeing our.
selves placed in a situation to be able to take measures
which shall conduct us to this object, without en-
croaching upon the rights and lawful claims of our
faithful subjects.
' " The measures which we have adopted are foun-
ded on the live co-operation of our good people ; and
we depend on their confidence, which will of itself
attach to arrangements published by us, and which
will be completely justified by their result."
After this introduction follow the enactments, of
which the chief are as follow :

64 In future no paper-money, having a forced value
and circulation, shall be created ; nor shall any in-
crease take place of the amount of what is already in
circulation. Should extraordinary circumstances de-
mand expenses beyond the ordinary resources of the
State, the Administration of the Finance Depart-
ment shall take measures for covering the expenses
by new resources and extraordinary means, withoot
in any case introducing a paper-money having a forced
circulation.

66 The existing paper-money shall., I st, be capable
of being.exchanged to the extent of two-sevenths for
bank notes of the new bank to be erected, which bank-
notes shall, at all times, be exchangeable for conven-
tion money, to their full amount ; and to the extent
of live-sevenths for assignments on the state debts,
bearing an annual interest of one per cent. in conven-
tion money : or, 2dly, the said paper money may be
employed for the purpose of being placed as capital
in the new bank ; with this understanding, that for
each share (the capital to consist of fifty thousand
shares) shall be advanced two thousand florins in
paper, and 200 florins in specie convention money.
" The advantage of the holders of the paper-money
consists in the second alternative-Ist, in the enjoy-
ment of the advantages which the Bank holds out ;
and, 2dly, in the enjoyment of 2i per cent. interest in
convention money, which shall be paid on obligations
which shall be issued by the Bank for that purpose."
The second patent relates to the erection of the
above-mentioned National Lank.

The third patent is a sort of corollary from the two
preceding, and contains, as ene of the means of re-
storing order in the money circulation, the separation
and indication of certain revenues of the State, which
are to be paid excluoively in bank-notes, or,Tor smaller
sums, in what is called convention money.
The fourth patent relates to the maintenance of
the value of the small copper money in circulation,
which is to be received in payments as convention

VIENNA. 'JUNE 8.
The new patent respecting the finances has already
produced a great effect in the four days that have
elapsed since it appeared. Justice is every where
done to the sagacity of the Statesman to whom we
are indebted for it. It is, in fact, impossible to under-
take so impooant a measure with morefreedoto from
constraint. The arrangements are advantageous to
the State, which, with the most generous disin-
terestedness, make the greatest sacrifices, and to all
the citizens, and as the true interest of the State can-
not be separated from that of the mass of the people,
that is no doubt but this measure will beiu returu

prosperity of the people will insure
