FRENCH NEWS [25]

EXAMINER, 4 SEPT., 1831, P. 569

This paragraph is headed “London, September 4.” The entry in Mill’s bibliography, covering this and forty-two other articles (up to and including No. 178), reads: “The summary of French news in the Examiner from 4th September 1831 to 15th July 1832 inclusive, missing only one Sunday (July 1st) and comprising many long articles” (MacMinn, p. 17). Actually one other issue, that for 13 Nov., 1831, also has no summary of French news. This brief notice is listed as “Paragraph on France” and enclosed in square brackets in the Somerville College set.

the speech of the French Minister of Finance, on presenting the budget, holds out expectations of a considerable relaxation of the restrictions on the importation of foreign commodities.¹ We hail this with joy, as the first indication of an improved spirit on these subjects in the French Government.

[1 ]Baron Louis’ speech is in Moniteur, 20 Aug., 1831, pp. 1431-3.
