THIS DAY. A deputation waited on the Chancellor of the Ez ohms's. at his official resides. is Diwningotreet, this afternoon, to urge apes him the propriety of repealing the stamp duty oa newspaper advertlanasate. The deputation was accompanied by Messrs. Ewan, M.P., C. Villien, M.P., and Sir James Date, M.P., and coasisted of Mr. Nord* Young (eats). Mr. Knight Haat (Daily News), Mr. Grant (Morning Advertiser), M. sen. Spicer (Patriot), Pram. (Afainortun), lagram (Illustrated Neale), and Pratt (B►itish Baimr). Mr. E WART opened the objects of the deputation by remiadiag the Chancellor of the Exchequer that the question of the advertisement duty had been brought before parlia ment last session, and war supported by numerous petitions from all the provincial towns. The arguments in Meer et abolition were. well known that it was quite uasescaemp to repeat them. The ground upon which they stood was the great benefit which would be conferred on the country gess. rally by repeal, and the disadvantage at which we stood is comparison with foreign isountrin, the trades of will& loald advertiee frree of duty. There were other guillemot present who would go into the details, and show hew. especially in the ens of America, foreign Orden had advantage oa this point Os, Glebe - a Nese Tort Cbsorior cad /vsguirsr, corned by an ocean of advertisements oa 41 possible subjects. The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER (having examined it attentivele)—Why ha enough Wreaks a Chan cellor of the Enchegoer's teeth water to see each a sea of taxable matter. (Laughter.) Mr. EWART continued to observe that they stood upon the mound principle that the advertisement duty was a tax upon, and obstruction of commerce, and should be repealed on the sane principle as bad been the auction duty, abo - Betted by (lir R. Peel. Indeed he (Mr. Swart) believed this to be the stronger case, and that the advertimmeat duty was one wbieh that statesman would have liken off had he continued in office. They went also on the grounds of the smallnsie of the duty, sod although they had united with the paper duty and newspaper stamp repeal meeting", they considered that this stood upon its own ground ; and that its noises would bs a great benefit to the commouity. The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER said he should not trouble the deputation to tell over sofa a long story with which be was already acquainted, although it was very proper in them to come tad refresh his memory on the subject. Next week he expected deputations from all elasses of tsx•payen in the kingdom, and should hear t►em all Ware he made up hie mind. Mr. YURI:10 YOUN 3—The assault we ask for is very and the benefit to the community would be great, out of all proportion. Mr. GRANT dwelt on the great advantage which the ►e peal would prove to servants out of place, who were now I deterred, la the treat majority acmes, from advertising on amount of the expense. Mr. YOUNG said that the advantages to advertisers would be mac than t►e reduction of the duty, as proprietors would enter into eestrusts for "repeats," and take eight three shil ling advertisements for a pound. Mr. GRANT added that It would cause a great biasses in the consumption, of excisable articles, by giving traders greater facilities of making the public acquainted with the pries and quality of tilt ir goods. Mr. INGRAM noticed the benefit It would be to farmers, who would advertise their stock instead of attending fairs and markets, as at present. Mr. PRATT waled to impress upon the right hon. gen tkmaa the newsmity of .:tending the duty if be did not re peal It, as at present every railway carriage, cab, and steam. beat was becoming an arlyerus . sr without payment of any duty. Mr. YOUNG observed that in the cab in which he had sum to Dewnisg-gtrett there wu an advertiument, for whisk the cabman received three shilling. Mr. BPIOER hoped that the duty would be taken off altogether; bet, if it were reduced to 6d., the revenue would less nothing. Mr. EWART was in favour of total repeal. Mr. FRANCIS (Athewesuis) wished to call the right hon. gentleman's attention to an ingenious plan of evading the advertisement duty, which had lately been adopted. The owners of the Panorama of the Nile had erected on the top of their premises machinery for the purpose or starting • number of balloons, to each of which was suspended a bundle of tickets, which would fall and disperse when the helicon had a•taioed • certain height. The persons who picked them up by merely noticing on them the place where found, would be entitled to admission to the panorama on payment of sixpence, or half the usual price. Now be bad ascertained the account to stand thus: Expense of balloon, Be.; gas, 2a. ; tickets, 2a. ; in all, 125.; while the number of tickets brought in realised 24., being a profit of 11. Bs. on the transaction, and no adnrtimement duty. (Mr. Francis here produced a bundle of the ticket', which created much curiosity and amusement.) The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER.—It is worth while to receive deputations if it were only to loam how ingenious the world is in °beating. (Langhter.) Mr. FRANCIS mid that they bad been picked up in all parts of t►e tows. Ho suggested that there would be some awkwardness if the number of these balloons increased much. (Laughter.) Mr. KNIGHT HUNT maid that another great point in favour of the repeal of this Um was, that the full benefit of its repeal would be felt immediately by the public; benefi cial results of the repeal of the paper duty would be felt in the first instance chiefly by the capitalists engaged is the manufacture of paper; a repeal of the advertisement tax would be instrotly ►eneficial to the public at large. Sir J. DUKE knew from his own experience in Sussex that the farmers felt greatly the went of a cheap means of adrertisieg. Mr. SWART said that the tax was the same in principle en if they taxed the town crier. The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER said that of worse they did not expect any answer from him then. He had listened attentively to their ease, and it should be ex►mined into at the proper time. The deputation then withdrew. SPORTING. TATTERSALL'B.—TIIIIIBDAY.

Notwithstanding the prop afforded to the market by the continuance of the purchases by the govern ment broker, who operates with great regularity every transfer - day, the English fends, far from showing an upward tendency, scarcely main tain former price*. Various causes combine to pro- dace this effect. One consideration, which perhaps exercises a more powerful influence than is generally weribed to it, is found in the uncertainty felt in moat quarters as to the course of policy which will be pursued by the Bank of England as regards the fixing of its rate of interest, this uncertainty bring further increased by the contradictory rumours afloat on the subject. Unfavourable reports as to the sta bility of the cabinet are also more confidently revived. To the caution on the part of operators, induced by these two considerations, the slight depression and comparative quiet of the stock markets are doubtless chiefly attributable. The Control market opened at yesterday's range, 964 to 1 both for mosey and the account, at which quotation it also stands at the present moment, though tne price in the course of besiege@ temporarily went down to 961 for cash.

The report stated that since the meeting in August last the copper ores, per: Cuba, 456 toned had been sold at Swansea, averaging 27; per cent., and realised 291. 17a. 6d. per ton, 6,1001. She also brought about 60 tons of silver leavings (being the refuse after the procet4 of amalgamation at Copiapo), which contained 120 ounces of silver to the ton, and realised 271. 10s. per ton. The quanti yof copper ore raised during the six months ending 30th October last, had been only 332 tons, bat the monthly reports continue very satisfactory and encouraging,with every probability of considerably increased returns for the future. The stock of copper ores lying in the valley of Copiapo on the 30th October was 1,643 tons. The total expenditure at the different silver mines in which the company are interested, including the purchiuw.money of 5,2501., bad been to 30th June last about 13,9101, and the value of the silver returned from thence had been (including the probable pro- ceeds of the 60 tons of silver leaving per Cuba) *butt 11,5801. In addition to which a remittance of 2,0001. may be expected by the next mail. The total expendi ture at the different gold mines in which the company are interested, including the purchase money, 3601., had amounted to 3,2851. to 30th June, and the returns from the mines had been only 37 51 : , being the pro- ceeds of two ingots of gold. The directors in their last report stated that they had desired their manager not to continue the working of these gold mines unless the produce covered the expenditure, or that there were strong grounds fur expecting them to yield a profit within a short period. In answer to which the manager states that he had for the present discontinued working two of them, but that the Deecubridera de Oro mime was I paying its expense., and that it held out strong 1 grounds for expecting that it would eventually pay for working on both the copper and gold lodes. The directors, in conclusion, congratulate the share holders upon the present condition of their property in Chili, sad express their continued sans:action with the exertions of Captain Waters and all others in their service there. After a short conversation, the report was received and adopted. The thanks of the meeting were voted to the chairman and direc tors, which concluded the business of the day. We have received a copy of the proposals of the Austrian government for the sale by tender, on the Ist of March next, of a parcel of about 100 tons lead ore, now lying at the Imperial mines at Mi es , i n Bohemia. Tree principal conditions are—the deposit of 1,500 florins at Vienna, or 1501. at London, as con vention money : tenders are to be made for the whole quantity : the ore is to be taken away within two months of the date of the acceptance of the tender: the tenders are to be delivered by the above date at the imperial mining office, at Pesibram, in Bohemia. The Austrian authorities have fixed • minimum, below which no offer will be accepted. EXCIiANORS AND STOCKS ABROAD. Vat Meson.. PAM*, Jar. 29. For —. Opining 111gbest. Lowest.
