LONDON, j While we justly extol mrr late naval vic tories as tl)e mod brilliant in point of na tional glory., we ought to view them as fubftantiailv conferring national sakkty. Possessed, as we now are, cf the empire of every navigable sea—commanding the com- I merce of the world—the naval power of the enemy so crippled that its wretched remains ' can creep out only by Health—we have every ' advantage to expect, and nothing to feur. The phantom ot Invasion no longer able even to diturb timid or weak minds, every indi vidual throughout the kingdom, whether Land Proprietor, Merchant, Manufacturer, Trader, See. See. proudly ieels that lo! d l°e curity is established on the mod firm base, by the irreliftible prowess of our arms. But they whose property is mo.re immedi ately benefited by our late decilive vidlories, are the Holders of Stock ; as the Funds, lo liable to deprelfion from the very (hadow of danger, may now be conlidered, in point of lubftautial security, fully equal to that of landed property. It must: fee.m ft range, then, to the bulk of the public, why the Funds have not experienced an elevation cornmen furate with an increase of national fafety; mpre especially as there is now so great and rapid a demand for Stock wherewith to re .deem the Land Tax. To all, however, con versant with the proceedings of the Alley, it can b: no matter of lutprize. The faCt is, that the still depreflion of the Funds is the mere creature of artifice. This is effected by Spurious Sales, Time-bargains ; but chiefly by borrowing hnmenle quantities of Stocks from Bankers, and prefling them on the Markets for lafe. Thele matters are oftenlibly tranfatted by Brokers ; lnr. their Principals are egregioufly deceived in think ing they remain concealed under this cloak. Every man of importance is fully known in the Alley by his Representative the Broker. It is in vain the direttory employs every revolutionary means to conceal from foreign countries the impreflion which the glorious vidtory obtained by lord Nelson has made throughout France, The very means used to .conceal it betrays the magnitude of that impreflion. On this occasion its iron scep tre lias principally' fallen 011 Journalists and on the liberty of the prtfs ; yet the anti-di reftorial spirit re-appears continually under variegated form's, in spite of the,ince(Tant at tacks of the directorial party. The Propagateur -was fuppreflcd for hav ing publiflitd ftiip news, the truth of which proved offenfive to the fivt tyrants ; but it has appeared again under another title ; the Nouvelles de Paris, also prohibited, for some ingenious alluiions to the dire&orial dfeipotifm, \v»s published the very next day after its prohibition, under tbe title of Cou rier of Parh, without the least alteration of the spirit in which it is written. The Jour nal des Francs, which the inviolability of the reprelcntatives of the people, Marynezy and Quedon, could not protect from the directorial doom, is continued under the ti tle of Correspondence Jes Rcprefehtans Ste vcriotte, Deiaix, and Dcthier, and it dill breathes the lpirit of its ancieut authors, Antonelle and Gamier de Saintcs, who, pre-1 vious to the revolution of the i ith Fiufti-" dor, conduced it wilder the title of Journal des Homines Libres. By theft journals, as well as by private letters, and the arrival of persons from France, we learn that an universal discon tent prevails throughout the Republic, not more on account of the wild expedition a gainst Egypt, which has proved a death blow to the French Navy, than from the or der for a new lsvj of 200,000 men, and an extraordinary expenl'e of 125.000,000 livres Tournois. Thcfe two meafurcs cannot fail to-pioduce universal discontent in a country drained both of men and muney ; and it is a certain faft, that this discontent has already broken out in very serious commotions, es pecially at Brussels and Ghent, where num bers of labouring people have demanded pass ports to withdraw into other countries, and where the gen d'Armerie is constantly on duty-, to prevent and suppress riots and in furreilions. November 9. It was generally expetfed that the late deftruftion of the Frtncfi l'quadrons off the coasts of Egypt and Ireland, would prodSfce a violent explosion in the interior of France, against the present rulers ; or that the latter, to prevent this explosion, would break off the negociations at Raftadt, and make a fucL den irruption both into Germany and Italy, to weaken, by some important success on tlie Continent, the impreflion naturally produced' by their late misfortunes at sea. ' . Tbat no explosion has taken place in the interior, is to be ascribed to a want of energy on the part of the malcontents, who have no rallying point to go to, or any foreign support to depend on. The French govern ment has not broken off the negociations at Raftadt, probably from a dread left feme dil aftrous occurrence on the Continent ftiould complete its own disrepute, and drive Its ene mies to despair. It is conscious, that the public opinio 0, to which it is in a great mea sure indebted for its fuccefies, especially in Italy, is now turned against it, in confequcncc of the numberless vexations imposed on the people, whofe-hopes have been cruelly blaft e4, and who, instead oi being delivered from oppression, have become the viaims of the moll lhameful perfidy. The Directory is feaiful left the smallest check should produce a renewal of the Sicilian I espers; and this fear must have been encreafcd by the enthuli aftic joy displayed by all the powers on the Continent, on the occallon of the late vi&ory obtained bv Lord Nelson. diot I he plan for the redemption of the Land lax begins now to operate very perceptibly. Severalconiiderable pure hafts have been made within these few days. I his eircinnflance, added to the general favorable afpeft of fo reign affairs, has railed the funds.

Araoiy other undertakings of public econ omy which at prrient direct the attention of Mr. Pitt, it is proposed to fimplifv the re ceipts of the cuftonis, by bonding all goods imported ; which will not only economize the ex pence of .collection, but considerably .dU, minifh the amount of commercial capital re. quired to carry on trade. At present the, collection of the customs is after the rate of 61. 7s. jd. per centum, while the collection of the F.xcife is after the rate only of 4). Bs. tod. per centum ; foitwasfor 1797. The gross reeeipt of Cus toms in 1797, was 339,848 .19 6J And yet the net produce was only 5,014,4.68 14 iji« Above thirteen hundred thousand pounds be ing paid back in drawbacks and allowances, which have the double evil of increasing the expence of collection, and.unnecefTarily de. manding an increase of capital in the mer chant. Whereas, if all goods imported were allowed to be and bonded until they were wanted,, we (liould add to the temptation of making England the em porium of the world. The. Play of Lovers' Veins, loses none of its attractions by repetition. The houle wis on Monday night crowded.
