dition that French vessels should have the privilege
of trading, free from all Custom duties for 12 years,
to New Orleans and Louisiana. The fulfilment of this
condition had been prevented by the war with Eng-
land, but he thought Ministers ought to insist on some
equivalent advantage in its stead. The speaker next
adverted to the various unsatisfied claims of French
subjects, on foreign powers. The French, he said,
had fulfilled, with the most religious exactness, the
ruinous conditions of one of the most frightful treaties
which vengeance and hatred had ever imposed on an
imprudent nation, the victim of its confidence and
credulity ; while various debts, owing to France,
and which are equally recognized by treaties, re-
mained altogether unliquidated, :and contemned.—
He instanced the Saxon Loan of 1811, hypothecated
on the mines of Wielezcka, and guaranteed by the
three Powers who have divided the Duchy otWar-
saw among them ; the estates acquired by French
subjects for onerous considerations in Hesse and
Spain, but now unjustly withheld from them ; and
lastly, the properties of Frenchmen confiscated in
Spain, and even in Portugal, notwithstanding the
Convention of Cintra. It would be to outrage the
noble character of the Sovereign parties to the Holy
Alliance, to suppose that they could wish to finish
the ruin of some thousands of unfortunate French-
men by enriching themselves with the slender re-
mains of their fortune, while they were touching
every month the enormous price of the ransom of
France ! He trusted the Minister for Foreign Affairs
would exert himself with zeal in behalf of the nu-
merous individuals interested in these claims, and
who for the most part arc reduced to a state of great
misery.

M. RODET, in a long and elaborate speech, dis-
cussed successively the credits claimed by the differ-
ent branches of the Miniqry. The total sum de-
manded by Government is 869.210,000 francs. The
Commission on the Budget have proposed to take
off 14,574,000 francs ; M. Rodet thought that there
might be a reduction in all of 32,464,000 fr:tncs.—
The Chambei ordered M. Rodees speech to he print-
ed, with the omission of the word " scandalous" in
the following passage, which produced a good deal
of sensation in the House :—" May Ibe permitted
to take this opportunity of expressing to the Minister
of the Interior my astonishment at the protection
which cert.tin scandalous Missions have obtained in
the Departments ?"--.( Violent rumours on the left side.)

CORNET-DIUCOURT, DE MA xcet.r.tra, and
other Members, rose amid great confusion.
M.l3E,Notsr—" Omit only the word scandalous."
• M. It.( DP.T—" These missions, which under the
pretext of religion and of morals; excite intolerance
and fanaticism—which preach openly rebellion and
contempt. Can the Government be ignorant that
every place which these priestly bigots have visited,
has been left by them a prey to domestic troubles,
which are the precursors to religious and political
dissensions? Where should we be if every sect
and persuasion which the Charter allows were,
in like manner, to send its emissaries on a mis-
sion of proselytism through the country? Let
us hope, Gentlemen, that these abitses will cease.
and that, by confining the different religions to their
respective temples, an end will be put to the peram-
bulations of these missionaries who estrange from
their proper pastors the confidence of the Faithful—
who search the consciences of men for the sake of
emolument—who make a vile traffic of the most holy
of ministries"—(l-fear, hear.)

M. DUVERGIEIt DE HAURAXNE proposed to acid
five millions to the Budget of the Marine.

The debate was then adjourned to the nest day.
