LONDON, 8.4777RD4T, APRIL & TEE proposed repeal of the exemption, contained In the 33 Oeo. 111, cap. 184, of bills of tale or mart pge deeds of shipping from the stamp duties, by the Cliectuott of tie Bianco:ma's new stamp law, is quite of a pima with the Bill for the Improv.ment of tie Mercantile Marine. The principle of either messur, , is governmental interference with trade and commerc., and that principle, whether applied by way of taxation or of regulation, is equally vicious. Ship* are a manufacture. If the sale of that manufacture have to be subject to a tax, why not the sale of woollen or of cotton goods ? The employment of shipping is trade. If it have to be. subject to the regulation of the Board of iTrade, why should not the trade of sgri culture be obnoxious to similar regulations? A man Invests hie money in shipping to make a profit and to increase his capital, just as a butcher lays out his money in dead meat or • grocer in tropical product tions. To tax the purchase of shipping, however slightly, is, therefare, to limit the profits of shipping and the numbrr of persons likely to purchase Ship ping ; whereas, sound policy ought to give every scope to the aug mentation of profits and to oppose no obstacles to the investment of capital in any descrip tion of property. The extent to which the re-imposition of the stamp duties on the We or mortgage of shipping will limit profits and obstruct the investment of capital was shown by a correspondent in Friday's Daily News. In 1848, the tonnage of British vessels was 13,000,000 tons. Valuing this tonnage at 8/. a ton, it represents a capital of 120,000,0001. ; and calculating transac tions by way of mortgage or sale to take place an nually to the extent of one-third of Clio capital, the le-imposition of stamp duties will, our correspondent states, produce between 300,0001. or 400,0001. a year to the Exchequer. We have not the means of check ing this estimate ; but a tax on the transfer of capital of each an enormous amount will, it is obvious, yield a very Lags sum, and to the extent of its amount it will he a tax on profits and a hindrance to invest ment. _ . _ The CHANCELLOR of the Excueorze, another correspondent urges, can never intend to repeal the exemption of 33 Ge.-. 111., c. 184. IA hat the CHAN cELLuR intends to do by his new stamp law it is very difficult to B.y : for his law and his budget speech are quite inconsistent with each other. But what his law will do, if enacted, there can be no doubt. It impost s ad ralorem duties on the transfer of almost every matter and thing under the clouds; and it repeals the act which exempted shipping from throe duties. Shipping is, consequently, in cluded in the operation of the new law and the new duties. Now this being the position of the sub ject, the Cuaeceneort of the ESCHEQEER must either be practising an imposition on parliament, and be attempting to re:mpoee, without due notice, a tax on shipping lor.g ago repealed as hurtful to commerce, or he has in.rodaced •Itereeue Bill into the house which defeats his own intentions, and, by its careless con struction, reimposes a tax where its author proposed to impose ro duty. Either born of this alternative is at Sir CHARLES Woom's service: elevation on either cannot be very agreeable. If he mount the former, be dots so at the expense of Lis good faith ; if com pelled to teke refuge on the latter, what confidence eau be placed in any measure of which he 'mimes the responsibility ? But be his intention what it may, the shipping interest had better look to the matter in time; and treat the new stamp law as hostile to their prosperity. They can have no great faith in a government, which bavicg (properly) subjected them to foreign compe tition, refutes :o lower the duty on the foreign timber that enters into their manufacture; which gets into a I tiff in the House of Commons whea asked to redeem Its pledge by reducing the light dues and placing their mara:ement in competent and responsible Lands; and which proposes to give the Board of Tiede power to interfere in every arrangement of their affairs, from the discharge of a cargo to the binding of a cabin-boy. It is quite possible that such a go vernmeat will be very glad to gain 400,00 W. a year through the re-imposition by a side-wind of stamp deities on shipping. Tr.is much appears pretty plain, that a government so acting to one of the greatest interests in the king dom cannot thoroughly comprehend the subject on which it proposes to legislate; that it is rashly and hastily dealing with a department of trade reqairing, as as indispensable preliminary to legislation, thu most careful investigation, the most detailed Informa tic', and the utmost delicacy of manipulation ; that the !measures now before the House of Commons only deal, and that badly, with a part of the subject; that they am measures of embarrassment and of interference; and that they are unaccom panied by measures of relief and relaxation. If there ever was a period in the history of our commercial marine, when nothing should be done by the legislature to cramp that activity end quick despatch on which the profits of shipping always so materially depend; when all the springs of its indus try ought to be relieved of all pressure; it is surely jolt the time when it has been subjected to foreign rivalry. To relieve domestic agriculture in its strug gle with free imports, government is advancing drain age loans, is taking the duty off bricks, and is in a variety of other ways doing what is in its power to lower the cost of production and to augment the pro doce of the 'AL Very different is its treatment of shipping when placed in the same emergency. So situated, government is re-imposing a heavy stamp duty on its transfer, is resisting the repeal of • duty on foreign timber, which Mr. Ittrcnent. has shown amounts to a cost of from 6t to 13) per cent. on higher class vesse l s , an d from 15 to 17 per cent. on lower clots ships, is re fusing to modify the enormous light does, under wbicn shipping now suffer., and, worse than all, is actually attempting to deprive the British shipowner of the free management of his ships, to impoie on him unnecessary res , rictions in the sohc.ion and the hiring of his oGcers and crew, and to place in the hand, of seamen powers and means of diminishing that moral authority and control of the master which are necessary for the government of his ahip. The (*attest between the policy of minis ters towards sericulture and towards shipping in their new position is most striking. Unfortunately the solution of this contrast is at hand. The agri cultural is a great political interest; the shipping is an interest without p o liti ca l power : b y t h e former oximetnes are made and unmade ; by the latter a tide waiterahip cannot be influenced. What is wanted is fair play to both interests. Give the agriculturists every means within the power of le;rielation to compete with foreign imports. But 'don't concurrently keep up all the fiscal burthens on the shipping i Wert at when obliged to engage in a "miler competition, and impose other meddlesome regulations on it. Admit, as the title of Mr. LANOCCHERE's bill states, that " the condition of masters, mates, and seamen in the merchant service," requires improve ment; the admission involves no such logical sequence as the clothing the Board of Trade with unlimited power of making regulation, for the management of shim as Mr. Lam:cumin seeks. Tile condition of the sericulture' labourer is bad enough; much worse in all probability than that of seamen; yet no one proposes that their safety, health, fwd, I order, and discipline, should be regulated by the executive government, or provided for by set of par liament ; that officers should be appointed to superic teld their heeler, or to see that their wages are duly paid. No one is mad enough to prop's( that they should be provided with beds of a certain length and breadth; that they should Lave weather and water tight cottages, sad a certain extent of garden land; woe j OPP Ow - _ go fa lb& 424 with the emotion of a gvernment raw Mt to be permitted to send their shirts me without giving him • length seed notice; are ant to be allowed to hire cabins sr hammocks of their own choice I are to be Wood down as to provider, as to the sine of the sldp's boats, as to the exhibition of night-lights, sad as to the means ores lised/Mktg fire, W express andliemed enactments- A es if interference in all these matters were not enough, the Board of Trade is, in addition, to have power to make regulations on any other point it pleases. Bo that, what with the ex press and formal enactments of this bill, and what with the indefinite power it gives the Board of Trade, a shipowner will, should it pans, booms a poison of very neoondazy importance on board his own vesseL But a bill so pernicious in its provisions, and so plenary in the power it will confer on the =motive government, cannot pass. The best course to adopt is to withdraw the measare, refer the whole subject to a commission of Washy composed of practical men, and wait until its report kas bight the very ele ments of this subject before government tries its band in legislation for the shipping trade. TUE revenue returns for the year and quarter which ended yesterday—for the financial year 1849-30 afford but slender data for inferences respecting the state and prospects of the nation. The variation between the total revenue of 1848-9 and that of 1849-30 is so inconsiderable, that to argue fro u has to the health or sickness of the body politic would resemble the calcu lations of the hypochondriac who is constantly feeling his pulse, and becomes elated or depressed by a van riation of one beat in the minute. On the year there is a decrease in the customs' re venue for 1849 50, as compared with tha: for the pre ceding year, of 591,5661. The cessation of the large receipts from duties on corn, and the reduced rates on some other imported com modities, fully account for this. And then, on the other hind, there is an in crease in every other department of the ordinary re venue. The restr:ction of the felling off to the *Le item of customs while all others arc advancing cer tainly is no indication of any weakness or want of elasticity in the national resources. The returns from customs for both years are high. In 1848-9 they amounted to 19,129,829 ; in 1849-50 to 18,535,2631. The returns for the quarter which ended yesterday show an increase on the returns for the correpponding quarter of last year of 1,8541. This can scarcely be called any change at aIL For the garter there is a falling off upon f4r items :—on custrins, to the amount of 160,5351. ; en stamps of 11,0461 . ; on Poet offioe revenue of 3,001., and on miscellaneous of 60,8321. In all other departments of ordinary revenue there is an increase which counterbalances these deficit', and leaves the tiny surplus above-men tioned of 1.8541. . . _ . Such however is the inventive genius of party that we shall be by no means surprised to find our contem poraries friencily and antagonistic to ministers drawing the most wonderful conclusions from these returns. The protectionists will augur from them national decay,and the progressive extinction of our commerce. The whigs will upraise their hands acdeyes in wonder at the increase of 183,8161. on the year, and 1,8541. on the quarter, and vow there was never such a maser of finance as Sir CuARLEs WOOD. It is rank humbug, ar.d the trick of the game on both sides. The revenue returns c f the financial year that has just expired, and of that which pre ceded it, indicate beyond a doubt a general healthy economical condition of the country. Tkey show that under free trade the national income out of which taxes are paid, keeps steady. But there is nothing in this financial document to shake our conviction that the bulk of the population are over taxed. and that a remission of taxation is necessary for which retrenchment on an extensive scale can alone afford an opportunity. We shall be told of the continued upward tendency of the excise b ing an index of the amount of comforts enjoyed by all closes. The excise has ceased to be a test of the country's consumption. The quantity of beer and spirits consumed may indeed be inferred from the Excise returns; but for the consumption of sugar, tea, coffee, cocoa, fruits, and tobacco, we must look to the Customs : the state of the people's habiliments-- no mean ingredient of comfort—must be approxi mately conjectured, by a roundabout process, from the quanuties cf wool, cotton, and flax imported. In short, the condition and prospects of the coun try, as indicated by the revenue returns, suggest no ground for despondency; but neither do they indicate that it will be prudent or safe to disregard a strict economy in national expenditure, or dispense with keeping a sharp look out on the national accounts. Two MEN STABBED AT BULMF.E.—On Sunday tut two man were stabbed in the Hultman road, about a mile from Sudbury. Two young men from Bolehamp were on their nturn from Hillingdon, accompanied by two 'mug females, when two other men, named Charlie and William Piper (brothers), from Hillingdon, followed them. oft of the hien had been acquainted with one of the young women. Oa overtaking the Belchapap men a setae ensued, cad both the Pipers were stabb d, one in the abdo men, and the other in various parts of his body. In t a e even ing, three men, residing at Otters Belchenp, were appre hended by Superintendent Hoy, on suspieim ; their sums are John A.ger, Robert Howard, sad Henry Gina. Oa Tuesday monde-don having takes plan in the nos of Charles Piper, the medical men in &Median gave it as their opinion that he would is all probability be dead fa • few hoar,; Sepevinteadent Hoy, theref re, by diete tics of N. C. Barnardistos anti D. Badham, ouveyed the prisoners to the bed-room of the ap parently dying man, with • view to receive his di mities is their pressen. Immediately on seine Agar, Charles Piper exclaimed, " that's the man," end hi. depoei- Hon was taken as follows:—On Saturday, the 30:h day of March last, I was at the White Horse Inn, la Bell.nedon, in company with several pinata. Ws remained drinking in the house until early twelve o'clock, when the house was cleared, and I with several others, and my brother, William Piper, walked oat of Billisgdon, towards Helmer. There were five girls amongst us, and when we got to the bottom of the kiteken-hill I put my arm round the waist Moue of the girls. One of the meta (whom I knee- by .Lzhr, bat not by newel said to me, " I should ;not go say further with the girl." I said, " I would." Directly alter that I felt blood running down my side and leg, and I fell down on to the footpath. The other man then went away and left me, and I was led home by George Golding. The primmer, John Ager, is the SUM man who told me I should not go an further with the girl. William Piper, who was also stabbed in tenni plane, bat not su seriously as his brother, deposed as follows :—I was is at the White Hone, Hillingdon, in company with several persons. My brother Chad.' (the last witness) wee in the room. There were six girls also in the club room where we were. The house was cleared a little before 12. We had been drisking beer. Wk• awe left the White Horse I walk. d up the Balmer road with the others. I was walleng wish one i,f the girls, sad Just beton we got to the Kitchea-bill I heard a noise fa front as of people quarrelling. I left the girl sad went Oa to see what it was. When I got up to the parties I found my brother Charles lying down on the. path. Ager, the pri soner, war standing close by in the road, and I asked him what wee the matter. Ager replied, " 11l soon let you know—l'll serve you worse than I rid th e other." He had scarcely uttered the words when he ran at me with a knife and slabbed me in the outer part of the thigh. The night was bright moonlight, aad I could see the blade of the knife shine as Aster held it. I was also cut in the hand at the 14.1W1 time, but how I don't know. I Lid down on the path by the side of the road, near my brother Cherie., ter about • goatee of an hour, and I was helpe 1 home Ly James Ooldirg.—Evidence corroborative of the above testissoay was gives by John Duran and Wilhite Shaine. The latter preyed that after the wounds had been iefiutecl he sew Aatr give a knife to one of the girls in the party. Ager wes remanded, and the other prin nen were den charged. Tua CABE or ANN MEARITT.—At the last Old Belle , unions a woman, named Moffitt, was left for execu tion for having, as it was alleged, poisoned her husband. The verdict of guilty returned sgain.t her was be... upon • medical opinion, declaring that (retain grains of arsenic found in the dead man's stomach must hive been adnainis. tined to him within five hours of his death. The judge, Chief liar , n Pollock, who tried the ease, ha. • great taste ler medical infinities and fully relied upon *he declare ioas of the physicists who gave evidence arias the accused. Gelded by the aedfal theory on the matter, the jury found he widow guilty of slaying her husband, sad atte was ordered to be hanged. A deil7 paper ventured in question the justiee of the earths; and duiLnd that further investigation was required.

Middens remedies and dangerous theories should be avoided. The reforms in the system of mertgages must be attended with a favourable effect. Wet more than 22,000,000 would be required to pay the interest of the floating debt. Supposing the Am/2M should concede the Paris and Avignon Rai to a private company, with various other tedactiess in the expenditure of the department of paths works, there would be in that department ahem a saving of 5,000,000 fr. The army esti mates, which amounted in 1848 to 420,000,000, were sines reduced to 314,000,000, and would experience, in 1851, a further reduction of 12,000,000. No very material alteration was to be made in the naval depart ment, the expenditure of which had been reduced since 1848 by 24,000,000. The whole of the expen diture of the state would amount, in 1851, to 1,283,000,000 fr. In order to relieve agriculture, M. Fould proposed the suppression of 17 centimes in the tax on landed property, or 27,000,000 fr. The local taxes, which amounted in 10 departments to 130,000,000 annually, should also be considerably diminished for the same object. He lik ew i se proposed to modify the tax on doors and windows, and to re duce the registry duties by 6,000,000. The new im posts would produce an augmentation of 48,000,000. No change was to be made in the tax oar s alt, but a new one should be laid oa sugar, coffee, powder, shot, /ix. Tne entire of the receipts was calculated at 1,292,000,000, showing a surplus of 8,000,000. The floating debt, now amounting to 375,000,000, would be reduced in 1831 to 313,000,000. National forests are to be sold to an amount of 36,000,000. This and other means, which would be submitted to the op probation of the Assembly, would, he was certain, enable the government to meet all the wants of the state, provided, ho ;ever, internal order wa s maintained.: 'RANCE. This expel of the minister was favourably received by the Assembly. None of the papers have as yet ventured to prilk pounce an opinion upon the new budget of the mi nister of finance. The surplus of eight millions, which M. Fould promises, is considered as a specious rather then a solid boon; and the project d sale of the state forests, in order to raise an ex. raordinary supply of 30 millions, will certainly encounter strong oppo sition. The points which deserve attention are the relief given to the agricultural interest by the diminution of the intp%t fonder to the amount of 27 millions; the new taxes on powder and rhot, cards, aed chemical sobs, and the diminution of the duty on loans raised by mortgage, which will deprive the revenue of about six trillions. The pro duce of indirect taxes is estimatei at 720 millions, after data furnished by the experience of 1849, and during the first months of the current year. Finally, he proposes to sell 30,000 hectares of forest land belonging to the state. The minister expressed himself strongly opposed to raising a loan, except in case of much more urgent nec.ssity than e.ppeared for the present. When M. Fuuld had finished his statement, the debate on the Transportation Bill was c,mmenced, and, after observations from one or two members, was adjourned. At the beginning of the aitt:ng M. Dupin was re elected president of the Assembly; and General Bedeau and M. Darn vice-presidents. No other me mber having obtained a sufficient number of votes, another ballot for the other two vice-presidents will be proceeded to this day. In the sitting of the Assembly today, a new scru tiny took place for the election of the two remaining vioe-presidenta. The candidats who obtained the greatest number of votes were MM. de Vatismenil, Leon Faucher, Bezoit D'Azy, and de Lasteyrie. None of the candidates having obtained an absolute majority, a new keret:fly was necessary. The dis ecirsion of the election of tre Haut Rhin was put off until to-morrow. The debate on the law of transpor tation was then resumed, end opened by M. Victor Hugo, who spoke rgainst the bill. He said: In the days of Februaey, to which history could offer no parallel— , oo, oh' and laughter)—the voice of the people made itself heard; it demist eed the abAition of capital punishment. Mouths black with biting car:ridges opened to cry " kletcy." It suss a magnificent eight fur France, for Europe, thee ! Those who deplored what was passing —those whose interests were moat severely invaded— applauded the unanimity of that humane chorus, and agreed that revolutions had grand and fine moments, in which great ideas were proclaimed. In quiet times it is the fashion to banter ideas. Opinions take their place. PosPive men, that is men of bemuses', who are alter all only negativo men (ailors.' done !), men of business, who were dwarfs. (Cheers from the Left. Voice on the Right, " Yes, and blockheads are giants Prolonged Isughtar.) Y. Hugo turned towards the president, and teemed to solicit his protection against a personality. (Redoubled laughter.) Then he continued: Rut truth is stronger than disdain; It growl, it waxes in strength, and takes root is the country. By the form of ideas an a revolutionary time the punishment of death for political offences was abolished. The constituent am mb'y confirmed this idea; and in spite of all obstacles this fist step will lead to the abolition of capital punishment. And yet, under the modest title of a bill for transportation the go 'aliment had brought forward a bill which might he more correctly styled re-establiehtnent of capital punishment for political offences. (Remonstrances on the tight.) I hear on that side of the Assembly that It is not death, bat trans. portation—transportation to the Marquees,. Yourjustiee is an assassination. The density ,no of society, it is not death—it is not coercion—it is fraternity. Vict* Hugo was succeeded by the minister of justice, who was left speaking. The committee appointed to examine the law upon the appointment of mayors pronounced to-day against the bill of the government. The project was thrown out by 10 votes against 4. After the rejection a long debits ensued as to whether any compromise should be proposed. The result will not be known until to-morrow. The greettet division @mists as to the conservative candidate to be brought forward in the new Paris election. Opinions are balanced between Ferdinand Foy, d'Arbouville, and Lahitte. The last, although be has a seat in the cabinet, has none in the Assembly. If the bill relating to electoral meetings is not passed before the 28th inst., the government has decided on c'osing all electoral assemblies which assume the aspect of clubs. M. Chassaigne has presented an amendment to the war budget, proposing an increase of 2,230,000 fr. io the credit demanded for the gendarmerie, in order to create new brigades. He proposes to reduce by that amount the credit demanded for the infantry. The past week has again seen the metallic reserve diminish, there appearing a decrease of 3; millions in Paris, and 3 millions in the country banks. The dis count accommodation has increased in Paris nearly 4 a million, and in the branch banks about a of • million, the amount of the former being 41,510,442 fr., and of the latter 65,929,225 fr. Tho protested bills have diminished about 30,000 fr. in Paris, and about 10,000 fr. in the departments, the amount of the former being 1,307,431 fr., and of the latter 1,421,687 fr. On the aide of the liabilities, the nepotist of notes in circulation has augmented both in Patio and in the provinces, the increase in the fernier being 11 millioes, and of the latter la million. The acconnt-ourrent of the treasury has declined nearly 11 mil.ions, the amount at present being 42,969,355 fr. Private accounts-current in Paris have increased about 21 millions, and in the branch banks rieserly 3 millions, the amount of the former being 100,313,3610 r., and of the latter 28,889,880 fr. The whole amount of the metallic reserve is at present 4741 millions, to 4821 of notes in circulation.

THE EXPRESS, SATURDAY EVENING, APRIL 6, 1850. ROMAN STATES. The Seaeuto of Platoons quote;; letter from Bo logna of the 28th ult., stating that the celebration of the anniversary of the battle of Novara by the Ana trims having met with great °oldness from the po pulation of Bologna, the Austrian general in com mand there has notified by letter to the casino and other societies of a similar nature existing in that city, an order to close their rooms, adding that each a measure was sufficiently warranted by the attitude 1 which the whole country maintain s t owar d s th e Austrians, and by the supposition that the casino had given no balls during the carnival to avoid in viting the Austrian officers. GERMANY. PRUSSIA. BERLIN, Aram 2. At the cabinet council which met on Saturday last, and at which Radowitz was present, it was decided not to proceed with the indictment or complaint spinet Hanover and Saxony. This decision was, I have no doubt, influenced by the fresh proposals which I menti rood the other day as having ben, made by the Austrian government. The tenor of these proposals is that Austria will recognise the Prussian scheme and the Erfurt parliament, provided Prussia will do the same with the Munchen project. The cabinet at St. Petersburg has also addressed a very friendly note to the Prussian and Austrian governments, recommending a more conciliatory policy on both sides, and at the rime time making no objections whatever to the more intimate eo. fe deration which the Prussian government has at heart. The celebrated and prolific novelist, Countess Hahn- Hthn, his become a convert to the Roman Catholic faith. She publicly renounced proteatsntism a few days ago in the church of St. Hedwig, in the presence of a larva oone3urse of friends and admirers. The ministry in Mecklenburg Schwerin have re signed; the cause is not yet known here, but it is supposed to be connected either with the proceedings before t` e central federal government in Frankfort or the approaching onion of the two duchies, Mecklen burg-Szhwerin and Mecklenburg-Strelitz. ERFURT, APRIL I.—Yesterday evening M. Von Gegern, and this morning M. von Radowitz arrived here. The f.llowirg additional letters are by no means encouragit.g as to the intent of Prussia in this work which the Erfurt parliament has on hand. We preface it by submitting tho following telegrapich despatch, publis*.ed in the second tdition of the Cologne Gazette, and dated the 4th inst. " Yesterday evening the closing deliberation of the constitution committee of the Volkshaus took place. Herr von Bodelschwing separates himself from the court party, and abandons his programme of March 22, so that neither the acceptance en bl,r, nor the question of revision before adoption of the constitution, has obtained a majority of votes, and the committee thereto-c has only talon minority deisions (Mbritata Antraye)." 1 Our correspondent writes: ERFURT, Arkin 2. The remit of the visit of Ridowitz to Berlin, and of the ministerial c luncils held there during his st-y, is most unsatisfactory. He has returned with pro- posals which, if accepted by the parlia'ent, mu-t restrict the independent confederation to a mere crea ture of the old Rund. Some all-powerful influence must be at work to induce the Prussian government so throughty to change the character of tte indepen dent federal state which it has sought to create by means of the German parliament ;but the support and countenance given by It sdowitz to thischauge metal less intelligible. In hisrecentspeech hecommitted bin:self 63 entirely to the more intimate confederation, ad vozatiag its necessity, expediency, and legality in such brilliant terms, acid attacking its enemies and deriders with all the sarcasm and pungency for which he is celebrated; having so committed himself, the committee of the P",,/kshisirs were not a little CAM founded, last night, in a late sitting, to bear him re quire that the power of the Union (as it is now called) to declare war and peace should be limited, even beyond the limitations prescribed by the additional act (par. 5), which permits it to exercise that right towards all states which do not belong to the old con federation ; in fact, that the power should be placed entirely in the hands of that body. The adoption of this proposal would of course destroy the import ance of the more intimate confederation as a Euro pean power, and render it the mediatised creature art the old Band. Your readers wiil easily imagine the consternation which was depicted in the faces of the committee at this proposal; when they bad recovered from its first effects, a long and interesting discussion ensued, at the close of which the proposal was unanimously rejected. All shades of opinion approve of this decision, with the exception of the immed:ate supporters of Gerlach ; all agree that to give up the right to declare war and peace, is to give up the matter altogether. BERLIN, APRIL 3. The Specter Zeitung of this morning states that the privy council which met on Saturday last on the German question had decided on requiring the revision of the constitution previous to its adoption. The paragraph in question addP, it is expected that three weeks will be sufficient for the purpose. This statement is another proof that there is something going on behind the scenes, which the public have yet to learn, but which, if what I stated yesterday with regard to fresh Austrian proposals prove true, taken in conjunction with the information which has arrived to-day from Erfurt (see our Erfurt correspondent's letter], most assuredly will not prove advantageous to the mote intricate confederation. BAVARIA. It becomes daily more evident that Bavaria has hostile intentions, for it is continuing to concentrate troops on the Baden frontier. The Cologne Gazette says that Baden will be occupied next month, and that this determination is so positive, that the present minibter of war, who opposes the occupation, is about. to give in his resignation. HESSE DARMSTADT. This grand duchy shows symptoms (says a letter from Frankfurt, of the 3rd inst.) of falling off from the Prussian union. This is no light rumour, it is paid, but an impendirg fact, the likelihood of which is con firmed by the reinforcement to the Austrian embassy in Dumstadt, of Herr von RObeek. Bouu, Aran.

M intimated in our yesterday's impression, the royal mail past Teviot, Captain Revitt, arrived yesterday moraing at Southampton, and landed her mails under the akar,. of Lieutenant Dennehy, R.N., Admiralty agent. The weather during the homeward voyage of the Teviot was generally floe; not a gale the who's time till the 3rd iut., when one began in the moreaug from W.S.W. The dates by the Teviot are : —Santa Martha, Feb. 19 ; Panama and Grey Town, Feb. 25; Chi ire., Feb. 28 ; Carthage:ea, March 2 ; Porto Cabello, March 6; La Guayra, March 9; Jamaica, March 10; Demerara, March 7 ; Trinidad, March 9 ; Grenada, March 10; St. Vincent*, March 11; Barbados, March 12 ; Antigua, March 14 ; Martinique, March 13 ; St. Jago de Cuba, March 9; Porto Rico, March 14; St. Thomas, March 17 ; Fatal, March 29.

The Tay had gone to the Spanish Main ; the Great Western to Jamaica and ilavannah ; the Conway and Eagle to the Northern Islands and British Guiana. JAMAICA. From this colony there are no political news. Mr. Barnard, Chairman of the Quarter Sessions, died on the 3rd of March ; Mr. Farquharson succeeds him. The island was healthy. Cmsiderable expectations were beginning to be formed of the results of the cultivation of rice and cotton. An agricultural association for promoting the culture of minor products had been formed. The rains throughout the island had ceased. Our Jamaica correspondent writes es follows: BRITISH GUIANA. The contents of the packet summary of the Colonist are so important that we transfer them to oar columns in full : Our combined court has been sitting in an extraordirary minion, for the purpose of passing an ordinance to sanction the proposed loan of 250,0001., and provide means for its re payment. In ►ddi•ion to the circumstances that three out of the six financial representatives have been ab.ent throughout, that one of the five c lonial members of the Court of Policy has rarely attended. and that the time of service of another (the Hoe. W. B. Ferguson) is said to be expired, and his legal right to take part in the proceedings of the court is questioned, there is much other matter deserving of grave consideration in the proceedings which have taken place. It having been suddenly resolved by the court, contrary to fm mer determination, to accept the offer of the government of a portion of the inadequate parliamentary loan of 500,0001 for the relief of the West ladies, the question of the security to be given for its repayment naturally arose. The most obvious mode of providing it would appear to be to enact some tax yielding an annual ►mount equal to the interest and sinking fund for its redemptidt, an a special guarantee in case of the general revenue of the colony falling short or being withheld. But owing to the existence of two previous special guarantees or mortgages of particular nes being in existence, the majority of the court deemed it judicious and expedient to bring all the pledged liabilities of the colooy into one connected view, and make one coin. prebensive and general provision for them. To carry out these views two plans wire proposed —one by the lion. Mr. Bruce Ferguson, the other by Mr. C.o.'. We c..rnmented upon these at some length on Monday. hut, as the subject is an important one, and as it has turned out as we anticipa•ed it would, th it Mr. Ferguson was not fully understood, it will do no harm to notice it agaic, even at the rink of a partial re petition. Mr. Ferguson group. our liabilities as follows List till P 551 Less allowances for stipendiary magis trates and pensions lapsed £ 33,750 2nd—The amount actually raised ucder the immigreion loam ordiaacce, £17.),000. Anna •l iuterest Binkirg fund 8,600 16,300 3rd—Contemp:ated loan cf £250,000 Ant ual intrrest Sinking fund 16,250 65,300 Or, at the Exchange, $ ISO There is a farther liability u respects the loan for meeting bridus, but as the tolls produce more than *south tautest it, Mr. Fixfiuson deems i: may be left out of the calculation. The existing seturitirs f.a. Nos. 1 and 2 are said to be an import duty of 24 per cant. ad valorem, a produce tax, a duty of 60 cents. per gallon on rum consumed in the coloay, Sid certain license dwiei. Mr. Forguiun pr,posed that the securities should be t►us arranged, sad estimated th. m u follows : Ist—The 2 i per cent. ad valorem on imports * 135.000 2nd—A rum duty of GO cams, per gallon 160.000 3rd—Ezisting duties on imported wines and spirits 100,000 4th—The liquor licenses 8190,000 Living an annual surplus above li►biities of 71,760 dots. The difference between the 319.240 dole., annual liebili tiee now set down, and the 416,000 dole. stated in the report of his speech to the court, arises from his omitting to provide for the unitised balance of the immigration loan, which he reckons at £330,0u0, a. dooming it imp-uible ever to borrow any further portion of it. Should such however be found practicable, he thinks the 71,760 dole. a sufficient margin of even to meet what shall be obtained. Mr. Crosl, on the otht r hand, deemed it a more judi, ions owns to take the whole of our liabilities, positive and con• , ingent, and he thereby made a total of 485,000 dollars annually, for which peewit,' should be provided. He proposed, firstly, that the general revenues of the colony should be pledged to meet such amount as should he annually required, leaving it to the legislature for the time b.ing'to decide as to how the money should be ratted ; and secondly, incase of failure, on the part of the legislature, to provide such general revenue, then that there should be pledged : Dollar. ls• .The - it- -- rum duties estimated at 140.000 2nd—Duties on imported wines and spirits 124 ,000 3rd—Other import duties leviable according to the sum required, pro ►ata on the present scale of duties, applicable solely to these specified purposes, and no other, and not to exceed Stio,ooo Thu. it will be seen that Mr. Croat proposer a large ex con in the security to be provided for our national debt, which, as he provides for the fullest extent of existing we do not see the utility of, unless he wishes to pre pare for a further loan. The two plans may be thus summed up. Mr. Ferguson proposed to fix, for the next 20 to 40 years, certain taxes which he deems it judicious to levy, and to deprive future Combined Courts of the power of altering them until the liabilities shall be extinguished. lie virtu ally annuls the Immigration Loan Ordinance by withdraw ing the security for the awaited balance, and trusts to the home government for letting us have more money on more favourable terms than by that ordinance—and as he deem•, that however deserving of assistance from the colonial ct.est the Georgetown funds may be, yet that the Isle and con sumption of spirituous liquors should toe exclusively con trolled by the general government, he is therefore desirous of appropriating beyond recall the revenue arising therefrom to the colonial treasury. Mr. Croat, on the other hand, pro ' poised to leave the whole taxation of the colony to be freely dealt with each year by the legislature, but in cue of a " stoppage of supplies," for such only could occasion a failure , of general revenue, then that certain taxes should come into operation, the produce of which should be strictly and solely applicable to the debts now ascertained, not to be leviable at the caprice of the governor for the time being, but according to a fixed rule now to be laid down. Mr. Croal wished to retain the power already granted to the colony, of borrowing the balance of the immigration loan, instead of trusting to the merciful consideration of Downing-street, to appreciate our wants and enlarge their pittance of the 230,0001. loan. By this plan he left the legislature free to deal with the civil list, when 121,54 shall arrive, as well as to decide upon the claims of the town council to • portion of the licenses, as also to abolish or change any tax that should be found desirable. Without recalling any thing we may have said relative to other portions of the subject, we may freely express our opinion that Mr. Croat's plan was the more pendent and statesmanlike ; however, the assembled fraction of an " extraordinary " legislature thought differently, and five gentlemen have coolly determined that the next genera tion of the inhabi•ants of 13t WA Guiana shall be taxed to the amount of 30,000 dots. in the way those five Median-like sages now think best. As we ex,eot that the home government will refuse to confirm these " extraordinary" ordinances, we no only egress our regret that so much valuable tints should be wasted, and that the hopes of the people as to the eptedy application of the lean to immigration purposes are bevel to be disappointed. There have been two plantations sold within the last few days; one, Pln. Zeeburg, West Coast, Dernerary ; and the other, Plo. Meer. irg, in the island ot Wakensam. Tt former was hought by Alexander M'Laren, Esq. for 14,000 dole. ; the latter by John Lane, Esq., attorney for Meuse.
