Mr. J. Macgregor, M.P., has addressed a long letter to the electors and non-electors of the city of Glasgow, on the taxation and expenditure of the country, and from which we make the following extracts : Having referred at some length to the increase of the national debt consequent on war expenses, the hon. gentleman says: Having made these preliminary remarks, let us look at the consequences. After the efforts a all Europe to extinguish the Bonaparte., and all our bloodshed in Spain, the heir of Napoleon is this day the supreme ruler over France by nearly the universal choice of the French people. Louis Philippe, before his over throw, concluded • second family compact with Spain, from which a British ambassador was insolently ex pelled. Bat we, the people of the United Kingdom, are of all nations the must grievously, and, unfortu nately, without. the remedy or honourable extrication, oppressed by the calamity entailed upon the whole people, in coneequence of our belligerent glories. We have now, and for ages will have, or else submit to national disgrace, to deal with and to provide for the enormous and evil brquest of a debt of 800 millions, by an extra manual taxation, exclusive of the cost of collection, of about 28 1 millions sterling. With this oppressive burden and the general naval, military, and civil expenditure, we have to legislate, in • Hume of Commons, which a far from representing those who pay N millions annually of taxes, exclusive of local taxation, out of the products of skill and labour. I will not at pre sent enter upon a great question, which I consider a necessary reality, that must inevitably be carried, before long, in an age of steam-ship., railways, and a steam press--I mean a fairly reformed Home of Commons. Now, with regard to the taxation of the country, the Chancellor of the Exchequer will pr.,b►bly show a surplus of from two to two and a half millions. Each interest wishes to apply it to the relief of its parti cular grievance tax. The window tax is probably to be abolished ; that will take, including the 10 per cent. additional, about 1,800,0001., which will leave from 200,0001. to 700,0001. to be spread over a reduc tion of taxes on knowledge, stamps, paper, hope, malt, and other obnoxious taxes. All the claims and clamsiurs, therefore, for abolish• ing any of those taxes are all absurd. without a thorough reform of our expenditure. I gave my views explicitly on that expenditure u well as the taxation, in my letter addr. seed to you on financial reform, two years ago. I stated theta views before the import ditties committee in 1840; and I believe the reforms still neoessary are practical; for more than half of what I then proposed was afterwards carried into effect by that great and magnanimous statesman Sir Robert Peel. I am of opinion that not only the window, bat all 'messed taxes, the hop duty, and all the excise taxes, excepting spirit and malt (the latter also aa soon as practicable), and all taxes on know ledge should be abolished. But, as I have a holy re verence for our national credit, and the maintenance of tranquillity and order in our houses, streets, high ways, and fields, and peace with all the world, I must pause before 1 aid in abolishing any tax whmover at the expense of that honour, security, and peace. Therefore I will at once proceed to review the pub lic expenditure. It stood thus for the year ending sth January, 1850 : Charges of collection . ............. £4,0/0,728 Other payments deducted is the progress of masa to the Sztheqa 636.310 Total deductions interest of debt Civil M, ipalaries, law, &a. 4794,882 Miamians's' alia;vg.a, a4:l 3,911,231 Amy £6,649,100 Navy Ordains. Total expnclitare £45,480,786 Now I believe it is practlc.ble and safe to reduce the above expenditure as follows, viz.: Tao army from £6 549,109 to £5,000,000 Navy „ 6,942,398 „ 5.000,000 Ordasaes £15,823,538 t0£11,760,000 Interest of debt 28,323,951 „ 28,e00,000 Civil hot Miscellaneous cholges on the annual parliament 3,911,231 „ 3,250,000 Grants, annuities, salaries, pensions Charges of collecting the 4,0/0,728 „ 3,350,000 Other payments deducted 608,310 „ 600,000 Total ovulated 'solo( from £55,480,049 to £49,430,000 That those reductionism practicable and equitable, I am prepared to prove; but the details of the va rious items of reduction, especially in the four last sums in the above statements, would extend to far too great a length for me to enumerate them further than to say-1. That I propose not only to abolish the whole expenditure of the Woods and Forests, but to sell or lease the whole of the lands occupied by those forests, and to transform them into the uses of man for which Providence designed those uncultivated soils ; 2. To reducing the expenditure of the army, by withdrawing nearly the whole of our troops from the colonies, amercing to I , the plan which has been most judiciously begun by Earl Grey, and to reduce the army, which constitutes a police degrading to the military force in Ireland ; 3. That if the Irish people will not, like the people of England and Scotland, preserve the peace and save the lives and property of each, they, and not the tax payers of Great Britain, must defray the enormous sum of 663,6071. per annum for the pay, clothes, arms, and horses of 12,758 armed constables and 333 horses. Of this expense 523.7711. is charged on the Consolidated Fund, and only 39,9261. on the counties and towns of Ireland. My opinion is, the Irish are in every respect fully able to take care of themselves, if you do them justice in removing other grievances. 4. In the next place, I pray the Admiralty not to go into an epileptic fit; and I beseech all her Ma jesty's subjects not to be alarmed by anyone who would frighten them by the cry that England will never again sing " Britannia rules the waves;" for I am sure that she will long ride proudly over all the ooeans of the world, and I have no idea of rendering the British navy has effective than it is now in the first year of the laic half of the nineteenth century. But I do, notwithstanding, propose what will before long be as effectually done asthe repeal of the Corn and Navigation Laws; that is to say, no less than the utter abolition of three naval dockyards—to Nell the lands, buildings, and docks, which they occupy—to apply the proceeds to the sinking fund, and to save all the annual expenditure and blundering naval consunc tion and waste of those establishments. Woolwich, Portsmouth, and Devooport, are amply commodious, as national docks, for any neces sary construction, repairs, and refitting, of ships of war : and I believe it will be foucd that a far more formidable navy, and at much less expense, may be maintained by having all ships of war, bo th steam and sailing vessels, built by contract, with sufficient guarantees for efficiency. Let Sheerness be main tained merely for refitting, and let there be infused a practice of economy and intelligence in all that may hereafter be administered, under the Admiralty, and then the sum of five millions per annum will be sufficient to maintain the British navy in a far more formidable condition than it is at present, with an expenditure of nearly maven =Ukiah% stattia.S. As for the Ordnance, there has always beet great waste in buying a far too great supply of stores, many of which have become obsolete by new inven tions, made while thorn stores of arms and other articles have remained useless in the arsenals. Con sidering the greater cheapness and rapidity of manu facturing every article required by the Ordnance, the sum which I have set down ought to be amply sufficient. Belle Ting it, therefore, practical to reduce the tomcat gioss expeadi.ure from 53,480,783 L • to 49,180,0001., the seihm effected would be 6,300,7631. —say, in round Lumbers, six millions under the present system of taxation, and it cught to increase. There is now a surplus of more than will compensate for the repeal of the window tax. Let us suppose that repeal accomplished. There remains of the assessed taxes (exclusive of unredeemed land tax) rather more than one and a half million. All these inquisitorial taxes ought, for good reasons, to be abolished. The taxes on carriages and homes are injudicious, as all limit employment. We have cow to meddle with the excise. The duty on bricks, which yielded nearly half a million, we re pealed last session. The hop duty, which produces 206,0004, ought to be repealed. Paper pays 810,0001. —a large sum. If we can cover our expenditure without it, the duty should be immediately removed out of the list of taxes. The railway duty is a most indefensible tax—unlike toile, for no part of it is ap plied to mending railways. It produces about 236,0001. to Great Britain—none in Ireland. Now, we have from licenses about one million one h u nd r ed thousand pounds. The soap duty yields about the same amount. Malt about five millions, and home-made spirits also about five millions. .In all, about fifteen millions are yielded by the excise duties. The stamps yield a gross revenue of about seven millions; of which the tax on knowledge— that is on newspapers and advertisements—amounts to rather more Qin 404AQ001. This is esetainly al barbarous tax. Fire assurance yields rather more than a million in Great Britain, and about 50,0001. in Ireland. Marine assurance produces about 158,0001. in Great Britain, and little more than 1,0001. in Ireland. The stamp. on both fire and marine assurances are premiums on imprudence, and ought to be repealed. I cannot enter further into detail as to stamps, but the whole scale, including probate and legacy duty, requires an equitable re vision. Now we come to the property and income tax. My conviction is, that the property tax neither can nor should be ab andoned. lint I am now—as I have always been, and u I stated in my letter to you two years ago on financial reform—of opinion that it should be, de facto, • property tax, and none else; and to this tax It must come, as in all justice it can be proved to be the only equitable mode of imposing this tax. I therefore consider-1. That, in justice, all tenant farmers should be relieved from the tax on their farms, or that valued on rents, which they pay under the present law ; 2. That iccomes derived from trades, manufactures, or professions should also be relieved from the tax levied under the present law; and, 3. That so much per centum upon a moderately graduated scale, according to the ability of the per sons taxed, should be levied on incomes derived from all real properties, and on all investments yielding certain annual iucomss, not like those of the farmer, trader, manufacturer, and professional man, on the casualties of seasons, markets, ill or good health, short or long life. I would, therefore, moderately graduate the scale according to the ability to pay. Mr. Macgregor then gives the following scale, ac cording to which he would propose the graduation should take place: Under 501., one per cent. 601.10 1001., 1 per cent., and 1 per Gent. additional on all above 6W. -- I061:1O 1501., le per cent., and a per neat. additional on ill above 1001. 1601. to 2001„ 2 per cent, and a per cent. addiooal on all above 1601. 2001. to 2201., 24 per cent., and 1 per cent. additional on all above 2001. 2201. to 2501., 2* per cent., and e per cent. additional on all above 2251. 2601. to 2751., 3 per cent., and 1 per cant. additional on all Ibo!! 2.501. 2761. to 3001., 31 par cent., and 1 per cent. additional on all above 2751. 3001. to 3501., 31 per cent., and 1 per cent, additional on all above 3001. 3601. to 4001,3 f per cent., and I per cent. additional on all above 3501. 4001 to 5001., 3i per cent., and I, per cent. additional on all above 4001 5001. to 7001., 4 per cent., and per cant. additional on all above 6001. 7001 to 1,0001., 4h per ant., and 6 per Gent additional on all above 7001. 1,0001. to 1,50 W , 41 per cent., and 6 per cent. additional on all above 1,0001. 1,5001. to 1,76 W., 41 per coil., and 1 per cent. additional on ell above 1,6001. 1,7601. to 2,0001, 41 per cent., and 1 per cent, additional on all above 1,7501 . 2,0001. to 2,5001., 41 per cent., and 1 per cent, additional on all above 2,0001. 2,5001. to 3,0001, 41 per cent., and b par cent. additional on all above 2,5001. 3,0001. and upward', IS per cent, and 1-10 par neat. addi tional oa the amount el the tax. He concludes the letter as follows: Now, taking it for granted that the gross expendi ture may, as I firmly believe, be kept down as low as 49,180,0001., how is the revenue to be provided? I would submit the following po forma scheme for levying the necessary revenue, vin.: 1. Customs ditties on the following articles: (a) Tobaoto, say £4,000,000 (0) Sogaz and molasses at equalised ditties 4,500,000 (e) Tea at ls. per lb.

The models of the new market, which some time pest were exh.bited at Guildhall and during the late Smithfield Cattle Snow at the King meet &Zeal. occupied • promi nent position in the room, and were illustrated by an explana tory lecture, given by lir. James Ached, the Secretary. and by a aeries of beautifully executed lithographic prints. A considerable number of gentlemen connected with the corporation were present • amongst them, Sir S. Duke, M.P. ; Mr. Deputy Bedford, Mr. C. Pearson, the City Solicitor; Mr. D. W. Hervey, the Commissioner of the City Police. Several curlers, butchen, and others Immediately connected with the subject, were also in attendance. Mr. J. BLACIET having been chosen as the chairman of the evening, Mr. ACLAND commenced hie lecture by stating that the associatiou, of which he was the secretary, was formed at the commencement of September last. It comprised graziers, salesmen with their drovers, butchers with their drovers, the proprietors and occupiers of houses and pro perty likely to be affected by any alteration in the existing sierkets of the City of London • and for five months this &recision bad been engaged taking step' calculated to ataiataia the contra pennon of ties mwirepolitaa live settle 'ilepeffel et fewsfteloblieseribowoesseity llea easel as 40•11/Cierlien I would be obvious, seeing that for many months an influen tial portion of the press had been laudably engaged in denouncing abuses which none could question the existence ef, and the effect of which had been to excite in the public mind a reasonable and well.groanded prejudice against nuisances which, without doubt, prevailed. Application was to be made to parliament for the purpose of depriving the City of Landon of its live cattle market, and no wonder, for the parties by whom that application was to be made were anxious to obtain for themselves those profits whisk the chilies of London, by their trustees, now under charter, enjoyed. The corporation of London also proposed to apply to parliament for leave to erect a new live Gatti, market, with a view to abate the nuisances in connexion with Smithfield, the existence of which no one could deny. The persona who formed the Central Market Aisociation were interested peculiarly in the central live meat cattle market of London, and they desired to sup port the efforts of the corporation of London in main [aiming the present central potation of the market and to oppose any effort that might be made to remove is from that locality which was most convenient to themselves and to the meat trade et London generally. At the same time they were not so wedded to, or connected with, the corporation as to accept as a whole, and without Inquiry, any proposition they might make. They had, after examination, 'approved of the general principle of the plan of the corporation, but they objected to certain of the details, and those objections they laid before the market improvement oommittee. These objection, had been considered, and their suggestions bad been received in • liberal and handsome spirit, arid the greater part of them had been adopted. The luso elation, therefore, had already done good service to the public. Coder these circumstances the association, being convinced that the corporation was really in prosecution of their measure, and desirous of doing what was right in suppreesing the nuisances at present existing, was prepared to advocate their proposal for the construction of the new market. The objection that the central market gave a monopoly to the City no longer existed, because the establishment of • new market at Islington had proved that neither gran' our Mediu& would re•ort to it. It was now known that, have as many markets as you pleased, the trade would use only that which was convenuut, and that was the most central and the most easy of access. The further removed from central the market war, the more inconvenient it became, and the greater the nuisance it UM stoned. The lecturer then proceeded to describe the proposed new market, illuetratieg his description by the model., and plane in the room—the principal features being the increased area, and the adaptation for the vicissitudes of supply of besets or sheep, the whole area being oa an lamina flushed with a constant flow of water from the higher level, carrying the reluse into the Fleet Ditch, and from thence into the proposed tunnel sewer, which would convey the sewage to the E-sex marshes—the clueing of the gates and of all market built, es aiter a ceramic hour of the morning, and the absence of say thoroughfare through the market— , the removal of the disgusting trades of knackers, =snafu hirers of neat's loot oil, rabbit and at-skin dressers, bone collectors and bone boilers, slaughter houses of the most offensive nature, and is all some 67 of the most offensive nuisances now carried on in Cow-crow, Sharp's alley, end other places is the immediate vicinity et Smithfield, and the substitution of convenient and well-watered abattoirs—a convenient dead meat market on the spot—the provision of bathe and washhouses—a model lodging-house for 1,000 families, on the site of the present sheep market, and other details, which have already been described. A quarter of a million was to be expended in providing the proposed adoi. tional accommodation for the sale of the cattle, and the tax for that wouldbe one teething for every 80Ibe. of meat. Would anybody who complained of existing nuisance* object to that —when the effect would be to abolish those nuisances as fir as it was possible to do so? (Hear, hear.) The other quarter of • million was to go in provi ding baths and wash houses, and other public improvements, for which not a shil ling was to be charged to the public. The association might be advised to employ commit to watch the bill; their in structions, however, would be, to have full confidence in the corporation, but to take care that nothing that had bee,. promised should be by inadvertence omitted. Mr. EARL, a salesman, observing that the present area of the market was six acres, wished to know what was the proposed area. Mr. ACLAND said the present area was six acres minus the thoroughlates through the market, which reduced it to about tour ease ; the proposed area was between eight and nine acres, and by an arrangement which allowed • portion of the Sheep market to be appropriated to cattle when cattle predominated, and of the cattle market to sheep when the eupply of sheep was in excess, the area for buaineu pur poses was materially increased beyond that. Mr. EARL made some further objections, but Mr. CHALLIS interrupted him, observing that Mr. Earl represented • small minority of about 1 in 100 of the salesmen who were adverse to a plan of which the general body were decidedly in favour. A vote of thanks was then passed to the chairman, and the secretary having given a general invitation to all persons interested to attend at the office in Cheapeide and 'Aunties the models and plans, and promising to give the fullest explanation upon all details, the company retired to one of the state rooms of the tavern, where a handsome coliatien was served.

Spanish Active Five per Cents., 18„; ditto Three per Cents , 384. An important question was argued yesterday in the Lord Mayor's Court (and reported in last evening's Express), upon an application for a foreign attachment pursuant to the right and custom or the City on the . pact of Mr. Wordsworth, a Spanish bond holder, against Messrs. Stone and Ma r tin, an d th e Spanish coned, garnishees, the Queen of Spain being made defendant. The plaintiff in an affidavit of debt swore that the Queen of Spain was indebted to him in the sum of 10,0001. fur certain bonds and interest accruing since 1834, and that the, garnishees had in their hands monies of the Queen of Spain. It will be remembered that we were the first to announce these proceedings some time ago, and that in consequence transactions in the 3 per cent. stock were suspended until Messrs. Stone and Martin were indemnified by parties here connected with Spanish finance, and the dividend was paid is due course. Until now the mat ter has been waiting for a bearing. If the bondholders had a permanent agent at Madrid this is an opportunity which would lot be lost. The agent would take care that the case should be put into the Spanish papers and brought before the Spanish public. As it is, the individual bondholders must do the best they can, and one very useful mea sure is for each to send copies of the paper containing thecaee to such Spanish newspapers, ministers, sena tors, deputies, and public men, as he may know the names of, not forgetting the English ambassador, Mr. Weisweller, the Spanish commission on the debt, and the agents of the Amsterdam bondholders. It will not do any great harm if from want of concert among individual bondholders Senor Bravo Murillo, Senor Beltrande Lis, or Senor °cane receives a score of papers. The postage is only a halfpenny. We know nothing more likely to disgust a the. rough Spaniard than the report of this trial. There is the application from a creditor who has been unpaid since 1834 ; and there is the publicity given to the legal proceedings in the . journals, which have great weight in Spain. Nor is the manner in which the dignity of Spain is upheld by its representatives of the wig and gown at all more acceptable. One of the counsel was kind enough to suggest that the Queen of Spain was not properly described, that she was not responsible for the acts of the Queen Regent, and that her Majesty the Queen of Spain knows as much about this matter as the Emperor of China does. The judge, however, considered that there was no ambiguity in the affidavit ; it is historical that there is the Queen of Spain and that she is Donna Isabella: and a barrister suggested that although her Majesty knows nothing about it, her %elegy's ministers do, and that it is positively stated and well und ers t oo d in the Cortes that these claims will be liquidated. A plea was put forward that the proceedings are against the law of nations, and that they were in the nature of an arrest of a foreign king or ambas sador in time of peace, which would be held a justi fiable ground of war. The judge was not, however, deterred by these assertions, for he adhered to the rights and customs of the City of London, which involve the assertion of that very ancient practice in the Jura be& et paces, the detenue of alien and home goods for general claims. The city of London has confirmed to it by charter the medie val practice of seizing the goods even of English citizens; and a citizen of London, who could not ob tain justice from a Manchester debtor, can still claim the right of seizing any Manchester goods within jurisdiction until justice is done to him on account of his debtor. The Spanish authorities are not to be persuaded that the proceedings in the city court in volve anything offensive to the person of the head of their state, and there is no civilian in the world who dare from the authority of the law of nations, even if he could bring Vattel or Story on his side, disprove the right of the city to detain the property of the Queen of Spain. The Spadah authorities will be guided by precedent, and they will recollect the pre cedent of a former sovereign of Spain, who was sued in the Court of Chancery, and acknowledged the jurisdiction.
