soSs ferat de bownes FRANCES" To those who
have not paid attention to the oscillations OF the
BouIse, who have not reflected on the intimate
alliance that exists between II and events accom-
Plished in another sphere, this "mot'' explains
the extrt me senslbiity OF credit to all the phases
OF the political world. Internally the condition of
France has gained much during the last two
not yet been SO consolidated as fully to bring back
employment, prosperity, the increase of income,
the equilibrium OF the budget-all resultsof wise
and strong government-but il has driven away
from the minds Of the people all fear of socialism
and bankruptcy; it has promoted and maintained
order, and restored confidence In the future. Our
greatest present difficulty is the solution of the
Italian question. SO big with intestine war and
foreign Intervention.
Foreigners, who often discover better the game
OF their neighbours than their own, have not failed
to seize the opportunity afforded by the improve
meni in the state OF our affairs, and have bought
lately largely into our funds. Holland and Eng
these are purchases for investment, tor it Is not
probable, as it has been asserted, that they are
merely buying with a view to profit by the divi.
dend on the Elves becoming due on 9TH March.
The dividend may be an inducemeAt, II is true;
but so large amounts are not frequently put In ha-
card for so small a profit. The capitalists on the
other side Of the Channel and the Rhine must have
been struck at the low price OF ourfunds, as COM
pared with those OF other countries, and have no
doubt bee decided to avail themselves oft since
the full adoption OF the propositions Of M. Lanjui.
nais ter the dissolution OF the National Assembly,
and the defeat OF all the projects of the Moatag-
nal DIS to stfe or render 1t abortive
Another proof OF the return OF confidence is TO
be found IN this fact:-WIthln few days large
amounts OF Treasury boNs have been taken ut 81
per cent. TOR three MONTHS and per cent. for SIX
months. II this should be continued, the Trea-
sury will be able TO reduce the rate OF interest on
these b0Ns.
Bank shares have been much in demand, and
have risen considerably; although the weekly ba-
lance sheets do not show any increase In CONNER
clsl discounts. 1t has been seen that the Bank is
taking active measures to resume cash payments,
by restricting Its issues and continually augment
ing lis specie; and It has even been said that it
was only waiting to adopt this measure, for the
payment Of the halt.yearly dividend on the five
per cents, in March, or at least until 1t could OBJ
the government for that purpose.
On the whole, l may safely say that our financial
situation is Improving. a1f

The confidence which was exhibited IN ell
transactions, IN consequence of the vote Of the
National Assembly, would seem sufficient to ex-
plain The extraordinary rise In the market; it Is,
however, to be attributed in part to the position
taken by several large spectators since the end OF
January but although the manGuvres, the ca
prices Of the Boursc, and the combinations, more
or less skifui, Of capitalists enabled to control
quotations.. must be ADMITTED to have been.a partial,
