confident Of success will be disappointed, and

cepted the appointment. However, his troubles
will all be over In few days, and it is his inten

Financial State or Europe.


No one can doubt that the economical and finan-
cial position OF Europe has been, great degree,
the cause OF the late commissions which have &C.
CURED equally in these countries in which poll
tical canses have produced the revolutions, as in
those in which apparent tranquility now exists
a coup d'da, therefore, at the general financial
ing the interests of the crisis and its probable
results. That part OF the charge which is now
most oppressive generally on the people, is the
debt caused by the long wars into which the
various countries hove entered during and since
the reign of Louis XIV, and especially ut the
commencement. of the present century, and the
expense and maintenance OF the permanent arma-
mens, which have not only absorbed an infinitely
large portion of the productive labor of the people,
but have occupied the labor itself of large por-
ton of most efficient and healthy classes of the
community.
The debts Of the various countries of Europe
may be thus cIassed in round numbers
