The Oriental and Peninsular Company's steamer Montrose, Capt. C. F. Burney, Lieut. Perceval, lt.N. Admiralty Agent, arrived this morning at South ampton. Her dates are: Gibralter, the ilth inst.; Cadiz, the tlth ; Lisbon, the 9:h; and Vigo, the 10th. Owing to the state of the weather, the steamer corld not communicate with Oporto. The Montrose left at Lisbon ILM.S. St. Vincent, with the flag of Rear-Admiral Sir C. Napier, the Caledonia, the Queen, and the steamers Sidon, Odin, Dragon, Avenger, Stromboli, and Jackal. The Polyphemus was at Oporto. As the Montrose was leaving the Tagus she passed H.M.S. Terrible, with Count Itemfim and the other l'artuguese exiles from Angola. The Portuguese gown =PTA was still in very straitened circumstances. Ih. ties:toy was exha istcJ, and yet the troops were two, and the civil employ's seven months in smear of Pay. As we yesterday stated the chief feature of the news from Monte Vile° is the message of the President Roma to the House of Iteprese s, delivered on the 28th July.

On the 13th, the art c inference was held, when the plertipoteutianee an nounced that the drag of a convention which they were authoeised to propose del not differ from the hells of the propositions made by Mr. Hood. They sewn:eel the form of a c o nvention that meet convenient To tarn the Minister of Foreign Affirms, after some demur, segue -iced, provided the substance of his notes peril ...ly eo mmunie sted, in which the bens of Mr. Hood'. proposal was admitted, Arnett net be attend. On the dith the nolo. referred to ht theapriendix containing the drafts of the convention were preeentel. The President then points out the discrepancy between these drafts and the pr pool of Mr. Hoed, and refers to the correspondence em. bodying the objections of the Limnos Annuli government ; and to a eounter-drett in accordance wish their 'ion, to which, on the other hind, the plenipotentiaters objected. On the 13th. before the plenipo tentiaries effieialle received those note.% they conferred condthintially with the Foreign Secretive respecting the desthnation to be given to (tribe In the propcaed cony •ntion. Tile plenipotentiaries, to stc old the difficulty of acirrowtetlg.ng Oribe as the president of the Oriental eine, suggested that he should he ikelgnated by the Buenos Ayrean government "as my ally, under whose orders and disposetna are the .trgentine troops;" or that is the respective copies, English, Fame], and Spanieh, of the conecute st, different designations should be given to General Orthe, snag to stilt the views of the second eutarectine pantos. A wooed difficulty, namely, to avoid the appearance of the convention tense act encroaching upon !' the rights of mese ignty of Buenos Ayres, became, • scrions stunt- Ming block. Tee Buena Arran government insisted that Oribe should give hie consent to the conditions of the convention before they were ratified, an on to mold eves the appearance of the cessation et hostilities being prodeced by compulxion oe the part of England anal France. The plerdpotentiarice inemated that they intended to pro. pose • fresh draft of • comentioe, to one as a beset of neentiation. On the 14th of June, at a cmference, the diecuesion of these two I points was renewed, mthoot a satisfectore adjustment, ant the wet- mg broke up without contuse to any defoute revolution.

The plenipotentiaries hoot no power to sign n treaty, and the conditkon suggested that the Mow of Representatives domed ratify the cons - onion in three days, this stipulatiou to be Inverted In the convention, formed a /*Sine point in dispute. The Limnos Anent secretary insisted upon the ne. cereity of a mini. utional ratificatiess, and the plenipotentiaries mused the point The difficolt• remmtang Oribeb title was proerwed to be got over by a separate article dee watery of the distinct views of the contracting parties. After which they proonded to dimes« the preamble, which was agreed ea. Article first was then disowned The plenipotentiaries proposal the adoption of the draft laid pre` motel by them. The Buenos Ayreun secretary refused to adopt it, as it did net mermen° the difficulties pointed nut in his note of the 13th June last; that the ad.:Minn of the draft propane more over, would be abandnener hie ally, and it "meld we chow upon the face of It that the signature to the convention by the Buenos Ayrean government had not been affix. d until after the muter agreement had born come to with General Oriee, in conformity with the news welch concerned him; and further, besot the suenenoion of heal thier would appear to have born pro need by the mediation of pleat petentierin, which would introduce a new point altogether inad missible, by aelutowledeing the rune interested and belligerent penitents mediators, which neither the Burro, Ayrean govertanient end certeholy, beyond all doubt, Gera.

The Buenos Ayrean minister peraiderl in urging the adoption of his own draft for the eoevention, w hick, he nth% would avoid all dander, and leave Oak in the pneition in wh.ch the government was retired by treaty to meintien him. The plentpotentiariem replied that the touch article provided that the withdrawal of the troop, shoule net take place until the Bums.

A tong dimension then ....Wit upon the moil, of proceeding, in order to obtain Oribehi con cureenee with the *me of the contracting panes. and the meeting broke op without any coserindon. On the 23rd of June a note posed respecting the halt. awl guns ellutkel to in the draft: and on the Zith another contort ace was Tad, when again the subject of Otieeb title was reared, arid the minister recapitulated all the arguments in favour of thiscribine Oren accordieg to his view., and urging that (tribe wee sot even prnpnard to be acknoveedged even In his charac ter of chief commander of the Oriental entry, of which rank he could not be deprived, which t tie the governments of France and England had not before refund to cocotte to him, adding other argument,' to show that tail reseal was a dep trture front the basis bid down by Mr. Hood.

The negotiators then emberked in a long argument, having reference to the proper record of the past events, not materials mane ed with the articles under dlscusniou. Fresh notes referred to In the appendix were drawn up more in accordance with the news of the Buenos Ayrean government, which, however, the minister neither meepted nor refused, and, except the preamble, no progress our made in the negotiation. A variety of notes, the element- of which arc not particularised, were exchamrd, with no observation on either aide, when the plenipotentiaries expressed a desire to hear the minleterb opinion upon tine article which ended upon the navigation of the elem..

The plenipotentiaries replied that they enroll not admit I either; that they were role ailtheried ea aecept either the draft of their own prepeition or the prooresi of Mr. Hood as it had been enernitted by the French mewl English governments, without any modification ; their propneitione had been drawn up by the inter vening powers with a desire to de complete justice to &woes .Ayres, and embrArell In • few tines the propusal of Mr. Hood and the ober notions of the Buenos Amen government.

MARRIAGE OF THE MA1431318 OE KILDARE AND THR LADY CAROLINA LiTZSON GOWEIL—The betroth !Kent of the Lady Caroline Lennon Gower and the Marquis of Kildare, eldest son of the Doke of binder, was an nounced some months since. Their marriage was to have been celebrated en the 30th ult. ; but, owing to the non completion of some of the arrangements, the event wee ne cessarily postponed, and the ceremonial took place yesterday, at Trentham. Shortly before eleven o'clock the doors of the village church, which closely adjoins, and is entered from the mansion, were thrown open, and at twenty-five minutes to twelve the bridal procession left the principal drawing room, and, paring through the conservatory, proceeded along the corridor to the church. The bride, who looked exceedingly beautiful, and was most superbly attired, came first, resting on the arm of her noble father, the Duke of Sutherland. Her ladyship was attended by four bridesmaids, viz , her sister, the Lady Caroline Leveson Gower, the Ludy June Fitzgerald, Miss Lasalle* and Miss Henrietta Laseelles. The Duchess of Sutherland followed, walking with Lord Kildare. The Duke of Bedford came next, leediog the Duchess of Argyll; the Duke of Leinster next, with the Lady Blantyre; the Duke of Devonshire next, with the Duchess of Bedford; the Duke of Argyll text, with Lscly Caroline Lucent.; the Marquis of Stafford, Lord Frederick Leveson Gower, end the other members of the party following in succession. The service was performed by the limy. E. J. Edwards, at the close of which the noble lord and her ladyship signed the usual record in the register of the parish of Trentham, the Duke of Sutherland, the Duke of Leinster, the Duke of Bedford, the Duke of Argyll, the Duke of Devonshire, end the Marquis of EDdare being tits attesting witnesses.

LIVERPOOL,WEDNESDAY.—The Boston and Halifax royal mail stesm.ship Britannia, Captain Harrison, with the North American mails, may be expected to arrive in the course of to-morrow es ening. Various statements having been put forth, to the effect that the Britannia would not leave on her regular day, in consequence of the slight ami d. nt she met with on her outward passage off the toilet of Newfoundland, we have made inquiries at the agents' here, who, having received letters from Captain Harrison, have every reason to believe that she would leave Boston on the Ist inst., as usual. TIIE SPIRIT DUTIES.—The Lords Commissioners of her Majesty's Treasury have siga Med to the Commis sionen of the Customs, through their secretary, Mr. Tee velyan,i that baring had before them the board'e report, representing that they (the board I have received a c3mmuni cabin from the Board of Excise, enclosing the opinion of the law officers of the Crown, to the effect " that under the 3rd section of the act 10 Viet., cip. 23, foreign brandy can not he removed from England to Scotland, except from the bonded warehouse ;" their lordships authorise them to com municate the opinion M question to the officers throughout their department. In pursuance of this communication, constituting an order of the Lords Commiesioners of her Majesty's Treasury, directions to the effect contained therein has , . been furnished to the officers of the revenue throughout the kingdom, as will as at the port of London, for their in formation and future government. With reference to the recent general order of tho board, which set forth that, "questions having arisen as to whether the provisions of the act 10 Vic., cap 23, had reference to any other description of spirits than those contained in the table annexed to that art, it was to be considered and construed that they had reference to no other deKription of spirits than those con tained in the table annexed to the said set," which order is to be d.emed cancelled; and the officers of the department have further been directed to observe that the prohibition contained in the section of the act alluded to is to be con sidered to apply to all foreign spirits. INVALUABLE ADVICE TO RAILWAY DIRECTORq.— It the morning is wet, you should issue orders to have all the third-class carriages thrown open instantly; but if the miming is tine, then have them closed as fast as you can. By this arrangement you will have the second and first-class carriages very nicely filled—and your pockets also.—Punch. - - - ATTEMPT OP TWENTY-SIN CONVICTS TO BREAK OUT or MARTBOROUGH GAOL —On Thursday evening, about half-past five o'clock, 26 prisoners, under sentence of transportation, endeavoured to effect their escape from the gaol of Maryborough. The following are the circumstances connected with the attempt. It seems that several Prisoners were returning to their respective yards from school, when those belonging to No. 3 class, 26 in number, seized their turnkey, deprived h;m of the key, end then locked him up in the washroom. Another turnkey, who came into the ward at the time, was also locked up. The prisoners, who were all convicts, armed themselves with stone hammers, and two of them inserted a couple of shoemaker's knives on long poles, so as to render them available like pikes. Having opened the gate of their class, they proceeded to the adjoining one, No. 2, in which was the prison forge. Here they posse ssed themselves of h amours of the sm;thy, and sallied dos n towards the visiting gate en masse. The governor (Mr. Wilson) happening to perceive them rushed through them, and reached the gate, when about one-half of them had passed it. He, after a struggle, succeeded in shutting the gate, when one of the party inside aimed, through the hers, a blow of a hammer at his head, which cut the leaf of his hat, and, at the same time, shattered the hand of another convict, who was striving to force the gate. The gate being locked, those inside retired, u if to their dux, but in reality with intention to release the prisoners of the other classes. The party that lied passed the visitors' gate now rushed towards that which communicates with the porter's lodge, and the residence of the deputy governor. Among these were James Dillon, charged with murder, bet sentenced to ten years' transportation for cow-stealing; the three men under sentence for the attack 0,1 Mr. Cullen's house, near Mountrath ; and John O'Brien, under sentence for burglary at Money, near Stradbelly. The turnkey, Henry Dawson, who was going his rounds at the time, ran to the alarm bell when he saw the prisoners ' • but one of them caught his bands, and attempted to brain him with a stone-hammer. Having extricated himself from the fellow's grasp, he ran to the gate, where Dillon was smashing at the lock with a heavy sledge, and another man ready to plunge the long knife on the pole through the bars. At this juncture, the gatekeeper, Thomas Pratt, came out with a gun, end discharged it at Dillon, when he and his party fell back for a moment or two; but no wound being inflicted, they returned to the attack. In the meantime Mr. Lewis ' the deputy governor, handed Henry Dawson a gun with a fixed bayonet through the bars, and proceeded to load other fire-arms for him self an d Pratt. Dawson neat presented his gun at Dillon, but misfired. Dillon flung by the sledge and took to his heels, while O'Brien rushed in on Dawson with intent to disarm him. While attempting to do so, the latter stabbed him three times with the baronet. This so disheartened the desperadoes that Dillon called them off, saying at the same time it was "no go." In the meantime the governor had all the other turkeys collie ed. and succeeded in getting the prisoners into their clams. They were subsequently placed in irons. O'Brien's wounds were dressed by Dr. Jacob. They are not mortal; and, though labouring under acute pain, he swears he will not leave the prison until he has some person's life. The whole occurrence did not occupy more than eight minutes. The sheriff investigated the case, and is of opinion that no blame can be attached to any of the officers of the prison.— Leiasfer Express. - - • 40 PRINCE EDWARD'S ISLAND.-A deputation is now in London bearing a petition to government not to renew the appointment of the present governor of Prince Edward', Island. Circumstances have for some time rendered a con tinuation of Sir Henry Veer Ifuntley in his office anything but desirable, and the well-being of the colony would, no doubt, be served by the appointment of tome other gen tlemen fur the administration of its affairs. Indeed, no other course would seem to be at all politic, from the num ber and station of those who object to his peculiar course of action. The deputation consists of the Hon. Mr. Pups, Speaker of the House of Assembly, the Hon. Mr. Palmer, representative of Charlottetown, and And. Duncan, E-q., one of the principal merchants of the island. The second-named gentleman was a member of the Executive Council, and only resigned his seat at the board in conse quence of his own and the pubic lei ling with regard to this question. The petition bears the names of all the sheriffs, 36 justices of the peace, 43 commiasionera holding judicial offices, and about 4,300 electors, including 01 the pnncipal mircheuts end other inhabitants of the island; and the pnyer of the petition is supported by the recorded opinion of a maj; , rity of the present members of the Muse of Assembly itself.— Liverpool Mercia7.

It is difficult under circumstances to conjecture where the panic will stop, and it is thought the day will not be got over without several failures among the stock jobbers themselves. The Bank directors are sitting, this being the regular board-day, and much anxiety prevails about the result of their deliberations, which will not probably be made known, however, till two o'clock, or nearly.

The public sales have been few and unimportant, not embracing any Sugar, which article must be coneidered without alteration, as compared with yesterday; but a gloom hear over it, ne cessarily arising from the continuous difficulties which the importers of Mantitius publicly sustain. The refined market has also been very dull. Low brown lumps have been sold at 52s ed. in ono or two instances, although 535. is the nominal quotation.—Coffee dull.—Cotton inactive.— Rise tolerably steady.—The Indigo sale is progressing heavily.—Rum continues dull.—Tea without alteration.— The large public sales adv, rtiaed for to-morrow, consisting of about 20,000 bags, composed of Mauritius, Bengal, and Madras, attracts attention in the present untoward Mate of the market.

HALESWORTH, Oct. 12.-At market to-day our trade in Wheat and Barley underwent but little change ; the former was a slow sale at lace figures, and the latter moved off freely at our quotations.

NZVICASTLE, Oct. 12.—The weather since this day se'nnight has been for the most part of a damp character, copious rains having fallen between Tuesday last and Satur day. since which a mild temperature has prevailed, which will prove of essential service to the country. At our market this morning we had a large supply of Wheat from the growers; and, having several arrivals coastwise, business could only he promoted by submitting to a decline of 2a. per qr., at which reduction a pretty general clearance was effected. South country new red, of average quality, wads 625, ; and white from 625. to 64e. per qr., weighing 63 p-r bushel respectively. In foreign the transactiios were to a limited extent, but in its value we have little variation to note. Being liberally supplied with Flour, sales have in consequence been scarcely so free as of late, hut 445. still continues to be made of extra households ; and 464. of whites; other sorts selling in proportion. lu Rye not muck doing. Malting Barley in more request, and as our maltaters are now generally commencing, we may look for a steady . demand being experienced.

Beans and Peaunaltered; and the same may be said of Oats. Romroun, Oct. 13.—The following are our quotations of to-day : Wheat, 495. to 604. Barley, 325. to 335. ; grinding, 275. to 301.

Rya, Oct. 13.—The general opinion is that prices must conic down as soon as seed-time is pared, and sowing pro gresses rapidly. We had today a very good supply of Wheat, both white and brown. The quotatioos of the mar ket are as follows: Wheat, white, 611bs. to 621b5., 60s. to 555. per qr.; brown 601bs. to 6311 w., 48s. to 50s. Barb y, Ws. tolos. Osts, 22u. to 265. Beans, 38s. to 465.

Pattenden and Smith, Hup.factors, report that at Weyhill Fair yesterday, at the close of the day, but very few of either the Farnham or country Hope had been *old ; there war, however, a fair trade done in Kent and Sussex Hops, by sample, at about late prices. It is thought, that unless the Farnham and country gentlemen make a great reduction in priest very few will find purchuers. In our market prices remain the same, with •good demand. Duty 190,0001.

Last week 70e. to 84s. was obtainable for new Hope, but there was a decline on most samples of from 41. to Ls. per cwt. Sales were effected only by those growers who were driven to part with their stock. The large quantity of Hope grown this year in Kent and Sussex, when compared with the trifling stock raised this year in the Worcester district, tends greatly to depreciate the value of the latter; but the present critical state of the money-market, and the scarcity of money everywhere, exercise a very material influence upon this market. The following is the number of pxkets weighed in the week new, 118 ; old, 242. Saturday last : new, 122 ; old, 40. WETHILL Fain, Oct. 13.—This day trade was dull till towards afternoon, when many dealers came into the fair; yet, the prices demanded being higher than buyers would give, many refrained from purchasing till to-morrow. The quantity of pockets brought into the Farnham-row amounted to but 1,106 pockets; laat year, 4,467. The prices asked for the but new, from 81. to 91. per cwt.; for last year's 61. to 61. 10s. ; this year's, like last, is excellent in quality, and particularly useful for the copper. To show the difference between the yield of last year and this, the following report may be relied upon as being authentic : Mr. Crump, from 60 acres, in 184 G, had 40 tons; in 1847, 60 cwt., not more that an eighteenth part. Mr. Smith, from 26 acres, last year, 20 tons; this year, but 3 tons, supposed tube one of the best yields in Farnham. Mr. John Stevens, from 32 acres, has but one ton and a half. Mr. Peacock, from 61 acres, but 4 bushels to an acre. Mr. Pain, the largest grower is Farnham, from 140 acres, but 40 tons this year; last year, from the male land, 180 tons. Mr. John Andrews, from GO acres, has this year but 33 pocket., or about 1 cwt. per acre. In Farnham about 1,200 acres are planted with Hops ; and this year but 1,300 pockets were stamped by the excise. In the country rows there were brought 3,960 pocket. for sale, being within 500 In number of last year's. The chief sellers were Messrs. Andrews, Crandall-Lodge, Crendall; Hunt, do ; Messrs. Bagent and Shotter, Bloused ; Inwood, do. ; Powell, do.; Andrews, do. ; Moore, do. ; Cobden, do. ; Wheeler, do. ; Hawkins, de. ; Langrash, do.; Messrs. Spicer, Osborne, Trimmer, &c., of Alton; Mears. Egger, Payne, &c., of Bentley; Meters. Bunsingbam, Knight, &c., Froyle; Mr. Chalcroft, of Bramshot ; Mr. Gunner, Willball ; Mr. Butler, Grestham, and many others from Odiham and Burvrash, in Sussex. There were a good number from other parts of Sussex. The quality of country Hops vary very much this year ; for some of the best from 5/. to 61. per cwt. is asked ; moderate, 41. to 61. ; while some ink rior and year- Bawl can be purchased at from 2/. to 3/. per cwt. In the London-row, we found the offices open of the following Lon don factors:—Moors. Field and Wood, Mes•rs. Penchans, Watson, and Co.; Mr. Richardson. Borough; Messrs. Teolon and Co.; Wakeman and Co., London-bridge; Rus sell, Borough ; Trimmer, Calloway, Price, and Leak.; Oib • bona and Co. ; Pattenden and Smith ; .1. D. Evans, &c., &c. The prices asked by them ran from 21. 10.. up to Gt. per cwt. for all hut larnhams ; for those, from 61. 10,. up to 81. Bs. The trade generally very dull, not one.fourth finding pur chasers. Tao i s eneril impression is, that a great reduction mutt bo submitted to by the growers before they will be able to sell many. PAYMENT or THE TIM' Duvr.—A 11UnlerOut meeting of the hop growers in the East Kent district was held on Saturday, at Canterbury, to take into consideration the pro priety of applying to the Board of Excise for a postpone ment of the period for the payment of the duty fixed for November next, when the following resolution was curried unanimously: " That a committee of the following gentlemen be appointed for the purpose of carrying out the opinion of this meetinr, that an application be made in the proper quarter to obtnin a postponement of the payment of the hop duty payable in November next, and that such committee do immediately take such steps as they consider proper for effecting this object ; Right Hon.

Thanwica, Oct 14.—Yesterday our three days Cattle market was commenced, and a very tolerable supply of Beasts was exhibited far tale ; in excellent condition, the ma jority of them, but prices rather high. On the assembling of the humors this morning—and they were in goodly num ber—the principal subject of conversation was the late de tection of diseased Sheep in London Smithfield-market, by Sergeant White ; and since that circamatance was made known to our graziers, the most scrutinoun attention had been paid to the flocks that have been brought to this place, but no case has an yet been met with ; and, from the pre cautions taken, hopes arc entertained that our market people monist be Imposed upon by having the small-pox beasts sold to them. Our fair vines to-morrow, and hitherto business has been very favourable. SOUTHALL. Oct. 13.—Supply short, especially of good things, which realized rather higher prices. The inferior qualities hung heavy on hand, and scarcely maintained last week's prices. Beef made from 2s. Bd. to 4s. 6d.; Mutton, 31.

Good Beef sold readily at 60., while inferior was dull, and much was unsold. The average was from 6d. to 61d. There was a capital show of Mutton ; prices from 6d. to 7d. ; stores somewhat lower, and many unsold. Pork fetched 61d. Many Horses were shown, but few sold. Prices high for useful animals.

IT is not easy . to gams, what practical object the Railway Commissioners proposed to themselves in ap plying to the companies for returns of the stuns they have already raised, and of the further amount they are authorised by parliament to expend on new works. The particulars of both these items, it may be observed, are already recorded in the public offices. In tke reports of the commissioners themselves during the last session, the former have already been de scribed with extreme minuteness, and the others will be found in the parliamentary records of the same period. It can hardly, therefore, be a want of the statistical information, that has produced the circular issued last week. It has more probably been intended as a hint to the railway companies that the office may deem it necessary to interpose, in some manner, with respect to their present and future expenditure. ov a this can be done, what use the commissioners can make of the return ordered, when they have once got them, will not be very readily seen by persons of considerate judgment, whom the panic of the time bas not deprived of the power of looking at both sides of the argument. Hitherto, all that we have seen advanced on the subject regards one half of the ques tion solely. The mischief inflicted on trade and com merce by the absorption of money in railway calls— the necessity of relieving the market by stop ping this drain, are the only points that our newspaper advisers have dwelt upon. Now, as far as any interference by the state is concerned, there are obviously two things to be considered. It is not merely needful to prove that the state of the case calls for same kind of coercion, that the object to which it is desired to apply the re straint is really the cause of the evil complained of, that forcible interference, in fine, would not produce more harm than good. It is al. • necessary to show that any such interference is possible, and, if possible, on what principles and in what manner it can be exercised. This, it appears to us, is an element of the first importanoe in any useful discussion of the sub ject —one, indeed, by which the whole value of the advice which is now so loudly offered in various quarters would still have to be tested, even were the previous question of the ex pediency of interference bodily taken for granted. We shall, therefore, go at once to this decisive point, without discussing for the present the assertions, arguments, and assumptions, which have been urged in support of the plea for interference. It is obvious that, even admitting that it might be well to get a certain thing dote, the admission, is of no practical use whatever, unless there are also suitable means of doing it. IYere we to accept, indeed, the Examiner for our guide in this perplexity, it would lead us to a seemingly distinct proposition on the subject. although it will not be found to bring the real difficulty much nearer solution. The returns (says the Examiner) will show to the nation the " monster" it has created : and the purpose of this exhibition is to be accom plished by ,the CHANCELLOR OF THE EXCHEQUER in the following concise manner :—A report shall be made by him to the legislature of the yearly sums which may be safely allowed to be spent hereafter in railway works: this maximum amount parliament shall "duly" allot amongst the several companies, in certain proportions: and it shall be raised only by calls on the shareholders, all lending of money to the railways being forbidden. This is the plan which our contemporary seriously proposes—we trust with out any hint of ethical designs to such an effect—sa an " exception," indeed, from " ordinary rules," adapted to an extraordinary case of embarrassment. That it would be an exception, and of a nature truly extraordinary, is rafficiently apparent. It would be an interruption, of the most violent kind, of all the laws tinder which the practical business of this nation has heretofore been conducted—a renun ciation of the principles which are now universally admitted by statesmen and philosophers. It might well awaken surprise in Englishmen to find parlia ment sitting as an arbitrary controller of the trans actions of partnerships which it has deliberately created, saying, " You shall spend so much, and no more, of the semis we hare given you authority to raise; your neighbour thus much ; and so on, threnghout the whole list of the companies. The conditions which have hitherto regulated the trans actions of commerce are to be annulled in your ease ; the people of England, who have money to spend, and are desirous to employ it in this kind of enterprise, shall not lay out a penny beyond the precise limit we have fixed with reference to some notions of ours on the general effect of such enterprises on the currency." More surprising it would be to hear the next prohibi tion. To A. and 8., capitalists who are anxious to lend, and like the interest and security offered by railways, parliament is to declare that they shall not advance a farthing to any such borrowers. In short, by this plan, it is to subject the whole business in relation to railways to a species of arbitrary coercion the Ike of which has not been heard of for years—we do not say in England—but in any of those nations where the " paternal" office of government takes the most despotic form, and trews the subjects as the veriest infants. This, however, no English parliament, we believe, will do. We are amazed to find any publicist laying stress on any idea of the possibility of its so doing. By any but arliamentary fi at, of course no such pa " extraordinary " violation of the most commonly ad mitted principles of economics will be ventured upon. What "the legislature" would say to any egregious proposal of the kind may, we think, be gamed by what they did last year, on the recommendation of a course of proceeding similar in its object, but at cnce more moderate iu its provisions, and more apt in the time for attempting it. The committee which sat to prepare a scheme for limiting the increase of railway capital in bills then before parliament, separated, as we know, without being able to agree upon any satis factory means of deciding which should be allowed and which restrained. The difficulties that deterred them from undertaking this ticklish office would be felt ten-fold, in any attempt to cut down the proportion of railway capital allowed to be super teasel under sets of parliament already granted. The task of fairly adjusting the quota of each company would be found all but insurmountable; the vindica tion of the process, opposed as it is to all the prin ciples that are now admitted as the true laws of com merce and social enterprise--against the complaints of the parties thus arbitrarily handled—would be en compassed with difficulties that can only be over looked while the matter remains beyond the sphere of practical operations. That such an attempt will be made, we should be sorry to think probable; that if made, it can succeed, to any good end, we believe to be utterly impossible. SINCE we last discussed the different methods of maintaining turnpike-roads and highways our atten tion has been called toe. work entitled " Road Reform; a plan for abolishing turnpike tolls and statute labour assessments;" published by Mr. NVILLIAM PAGAN, Writer, in the year 1843. Mr. PAGAN'S arguments are particularly addressed to the trustees and others in the counties of Fife and Kinross, and he has col lected a vast mass of statistics and documents relating to the road management and legislation of those dis tricts, with which we need not trouble our readers. The general result of his facts and figures is a con viction similar to that which we have on more than one occasion expressed, that the collection of a road revenue, by way of tolls, is at all times expensive, wasteful, and inconvenient to the public ; and that as the extension of railways diminishes the through traffic on turn pike roads, and leaves them to depend on local inter course, the only sound reason foe taxing passengers at toll-bars loses its value. When a midland county could pay the expenses of keeping up its roads cut of the tolls levied on passengers between London and York, it would have been impossible to persuade the inhabitants to substitute a rate on themselves for a tribute derived from strangers. Now, however, when coaches are all but extinct, and post horses few and far between, trustees of those whom they represent may well consider whether it would not be cheaper to pay for the repair of the roads directly, than to support them by an irksome tax on their own every day movements. Mr. PAGAN explains in minute detail, and in a most convincing manner, the causes which render turnpike tolls the most expensive of all taxes to col lect. lie estimates the fair per centage on the re ceipts of the toll collectors before the net rever.ue is paid to the trustees at twenty per cent. The lessee must have a profit in proportion to the capital which he risks or invests, and his servants or sub-lessees must derive a maintenance from their occupation. These reasonable and necessary charges, however, very inadequately represent the lose of revenue to which the trusts are exposed. We do not observe that Mr. Pan.ts mentions the practice, well known, we believe, to all who are practically acquainted with turnpike administration, of combinations formed by the toll lessees to keep down the price of the commodities in which they speculate. Without aiming at the gains of the Roman puhlicani, or the farmers-general of the old French monarchy, the toll lessees form too small a body to have any difficulty in combining for the increase of their profits. They alone really know the value of the toils for which they bid at the annual auctions; and if three or four of them agree to keep their offers within certain limits, the trustees have seldom a further choice of tenants to resort to. Mr. PAGAN observes that the lessees, as a class, are always grumbling, and that, nevertheless, they con trive not only to keep on their occupation, but occasionally to retire from business with a reason able competence. It would be absurd to complain of the little tricks which are so nature:ly practised by this limited class of speculators for the increase of their profits ; but the public should, as far as possible, have its service performed for fixed wages, without leaving any room for speculation. It must be remembered that if the trustees have little check on their tenants, the lessees are left still more entirely at the mercy of the collectors. No sys tem has been devised, short of maintaining a second body of servants to watch those who receive the toils, under which it is possible to secure a fair account of the sums actually received. The farmer of the tolls can at most take a rough average of the amount which may be expected, and require the gatekeeper, on pain of dismissal, to bring him a sum at the end of the week at least equal to his com putation. There must, however, still be a large margin allowed for " stealings," which is lost to the lessee, and with the addition of interest and pro fit lost to the public. The precautions which are ordinarily used against fraud on the part of the gate keepers, such as transferring them without notice from one gate to another within the district, exa mining and checking the tickets, and sending occa sional substitutes to receive the tolls for a time, involve a further expense to the toll-farmer, which, as in all such cases, accumulates before it falls on the original owner of the road revenue. We have ourselves frequently pointed out both these classes of deductions from the actual revenue paid in the shape of tolls; but we are indebted to Mr. PAC iAN for reminding us of a third illegitimate inenm hemmer on the tolls in addition to the contractor and collector, being no other than the travelling pub lic itself, especially when it is endowed with the true Scotch dislike to parting with ready money. There are, as we all know, laws in abundance to prohibit passengers from pay ieg, or gatekeepers from rewiring, less than the lawful amount of tolls ; but it seems that in many eases it becomes the interest of both parties, and even of the contractors, to agree in neglecting the law and depriving the road trustees of their lawful receipts. A farmer who is in the habit of driving through a certain toll-bar to market can in most cares hold over the gatekeeper the threatof diminishing the number of his journeys, or of performing them in a manner leas profitable to the turnpike trust. If he drives his wife in a gig, says Mr. PAGAN, and is asked for ninepence, he tenders sixpence with a sig nificant gesture, as a sufficient compensation for his use of the roads. If the lawful amount is neverthe less exacted, on the next market day lie leaves the lad/ at home, and goes through the gate on horse back for twopence, or even exerts himself to walk into the town. The tollkeeper soon finds that if sixpence is leas than ninepence, it is better than twopence, and winks at the obstinate passengers gig, when it passes in future, at a lower rate. A still more ingenious device for reducing tolls per haps excites less admiration in Mr. Pnciam as a Scotchman, than it seems to me, who live in a less prudent and thrifty land, to deserve. W hen two gates, which we will call north and south gate, clear each other, the practitioner plays off one against the l other in a manner which must almost always render the most refractory collector pliable. Living, we will resume, between the two gates, and basing occasion to go southward, be finds that the legal a mount of toll is demanded and exacted from him . !he next time he starts from home for the south he tunic the head of his astonished hone northward, and dclibe- Ut COMMERCIAL 4 MARKETS.
