9" It is endeavored in England to attributea

to France the causes of the English national
burdens, but the English are deceived mere
ly in order to further the national defences.
The cxaggeration of our tournaments is to JUS
tify considerable increase of the budget for
the Army and Navy. A comparison of the
budget of England and France will how that
these consideration have been erroneous
Since 1915 the army expenses of England
have increased by two hundred million francs,
making for 1860 q total of moro than six
hundred and fifty million francs, while the
French army budget for 1860 does not ex-
coed four hundred and sixty-three million.
One therefore asks whether it is to France
and her extraordinary ornaments that heavy
burdens which weigh on the English people
are to be attributed, or whether these enor
nous expenses and taxes which are the con-
sequences of these burdens, must not be at
tributed TO other reasons"
The Paris correspondent Of the Herald
says there is something like EGO, 100000 ex-
pended out of the late loan, and it is under
stood that the surplus will be applied to the
Navy. The Paris Patrie, referring to the
above articles from the Moniteur says -
France has done everything to free England
from the nightmare of invasion, in order to
restore to her calmness and repose. If I'M
successful, England can only blame herself
for the fears which agitate her, which if pro-
longed, would be an affront to the sincerity,
friendly feelings, and actions of France"
The London Posts Paris correspondent
says:
"There is the disposition as ever, in official
quarters, to assure England that the Emperor
and his advisers consider the Anglo alliance,
now as ever, necessary for the tranquility and
prosperity of Europe" -.--
