Revort or tae Minister or Fiyance.—The Moniteur 'publishes a report of the Minister of Finance, relative to the

| Budget of 1806. The most remarkable points advanced by the Minister are the following:—* That not only the amount of revenue of 1854 has been attainéd and passed— uot only the extraordinary Jevel of 1855 is reached—but the first mouths of the present, compared with the corresponding months of the Jast year, show a considerable increase. This increase, for the six months alone, is 68,000,000 franas as against 1854, and 26,000,000 franes as against 1855. Much portation of bullion. A succession of ° bad harvests, the purehase of silk from foreign sources, and other less legitimate causes, have influenced, no doubt, the export of French coin. Silver especially has become the object of a trade whici disturbs the public mind. This trade consists in selecting. the finest coins, and obtaining for then their surplus value, This unfair choice of coin, which tends to destroy the general equilibrium, was by ancient law con- Sidered a high misdemeanor, avd was punished by severe /penalties. Modern legislation cannot be powerless against /such an abuse, which has nothing im common with the undisputed principle of commercial liberty. The Govern- ment of your Majesty is justly concerned about this matter. The two first loans have been entirely paid up, and the terms of the last, which will suffige to liquidate ail expenses of the war, are fulfilled with exactitude. The public revenue 1s augmenting ia a hitherto unparalleled proportion. The taxes are paid with the most exact punctuality, aud even (often in advance. Money flows into the public Treasury. The payment of the last six monthly payments of the Rente | has left usa reserve of 110,000,000 francs. It must be evident to every sensible man that these facts are the indices (of a situation of things which is fundamenally good.”
