DO not know what to answer. What

extremely casy to give. at least 50 far
as The French Republic j., concerned.
There is no mystery about them, nor
is there any secrecy. They arc known,
they arc public. They arc to be found
at length in the national budget which
recently was voted by both chambers.
Credits granted the French Ministry of
War for the year 1872 amount to cx-
:
$50, 1863 francs for the ordinary and
permanent expenditures Of the French
army, and 74s.4T0, l85 for exceptional
and extraordinary expenditures result
ing from hostilitics in the Near East
In all good justice ii is right to dc

The Cost ne Colonial

1t is also proper to deduct from the
extraordinary and permanent cxpendi
tures of the army 43S 100000 francs,
which represent the cost Of occupation
of Morocco and the cost Of military
services established there; 225,oO0, 900
francs. representing the cost Of French
colonial troops in Indo- China, Africa
and Madaga scar; 158,oOO,OO0 francs
