FINANCES. 
The revenues of the houfe of Auftria 
have been varioufly ftated. One author 
(Briefe uber die Handlung von Ungarn) 
eftimates them at more than a hundred 
millions of florins, while another (Schlo- 
ezer) makes them amount to only elghty- 
four millions and a half. Zzenmermana 
reckons them at one hundred and twelve 
millions of florias, which at 2s. 3d. each, 
is 12,600,000). fterling.

The debt of the Auftrian Monarchy 
before the prefent conteft, did not exceed 
two hundred and: fifty millions of florins ! 
In 1770, the public expenditure amount- 
ed to- only cighty-three millions and a 
half, while tre revenue furpafled it by 
fix clear millions, which remained in the 
treafury after all difburfements. The 
deficit is now enormous; the debts are en- 
creafed to a tertifying magnitude ; and

ARMY. 
The troops of the Emperor were con- 
fidered as a pattern for all Europe to copy. 
The generals of the houfe of Auftria were 
alfo eminently famous; but Lafcy, Lau- 
dohn, and Daun, are no more, and their 
fchool is no longer in repute. Clerfaye, 
Wurmler, and Beaulieu, educated under 
thefe great commanders, although prown 
hoary in the fervice, have been beaten by 
boys, and obliged to retreat before raw 
levies, at the very moment they were 
confidered as the beft zadicians in Eu- 
- rope. 
In 1783, the forces of Auftria were 
eftimated at

Death, defertion, and defeat have late- 
ly thinned their ranks; and of the Ub/azs, 
a favage and murderous race of free- 
booters, the zame only remains. 
While the army has thus fuffered a 
diminution which, when military exer- 
tions depend on numbers and difcipline 
alone, is irreparable, the population and 
finances of the Emperor’s territories have 
received a mortal blow.
