The house having into committee on the order of the dav on the CIIMOMII Mr. Madalti in the chair, The CRANCELLO of the EXCHEQUER said he rose for the purpose of submitting to the committee the resoluti.n in respect to the wine duller, which flood second upon the lot. The first part of the re volution he had to place in the hands of the chair man declared that the wine duty should immediately fall from ie. 9d. • gallon. to 3e. • gallon, and the next allowed • drawback on exportation up to the 31st of March, 1861 ; the thin gave • drawback to dealers in wine who had com plied with the provisions of the minute of the Treasury, dated the 24th Jaly, 1843, and after that came the closing part of the reenution, which provided for • further fell of the wine duty et a later date, and • honer drawback acoording to the differesee between 3.e. a galls and the sum at which the new duties might be tinily end. In reading the resolution he should propose that the chairman should mop at the firures 2s. 9d. pea gallon, which were Immediately before the scale prescrib fug the alcoholic teat. The effect of that would be to put before the commit tee the arrangement which was to take ' place immediately, and to postpone for farther consideration that which related to the final fall of the duties. An opinion might exist that whatever change should take i place in the A a: orate duties shoald be entire end at roe. The toot were aware that there were various questions of oe onsected with the course of trade which best served by en arrangement of that kind. To traders, no &WM it would have been convener that the Osage should have been complete and Immediate; but the objections to that noon were greater than its recornmealetiona. The brat objection was one of revenue, and he thought to make the cheap so great by a single stroke would tan on the revenue a lose in the bet We're', and for a link/time very mach more lesions thee it would have to bear rourellag to the plan proposed by the 'orna ment. But besides that, he confeseed he did not think he could vesture upon so hazardous an experiment with • due regard to the norm of the consumers. (Hear, hew.) They must mann what was the state of the stock of wine 1s this country. There had been no Dodos gives to 'sable the grower and the manufactures of wine abroad to make any P les whatever for this thane. They had had no n= a n t kiatere of the probability of the English market beteg opened to then till within the last bef weer, and though the stooks la thia country were enticient for Unclogs nevermore, the govanzonat did sot think they were more than eafileinet—try were certainly not officio& kw the full and enure reduction of the duty, 'thin the plea of the goverment ultimately oostemplated, and the chop it would actually peeler. The coetiontal grower might be able to make emus. additionl exportation this year, bat In all probability that addran would not be a large one. It might be doubted whether th e p e riod h e h a d fixed tor the seemed re donee was the proper on, bat at present it seemed clear to him that a moderns tart al should be allowed between the beet and tin.l fail. Those were the various points on which he bad thought it semseary to comment, and he would now Leg leave to move as the first resolution—" That In lien of the drake sad drawbacks of customs now charged and allowed on the anannenuoned articles, the following duties shall be charged then= me importation into the United Kingdom, viz., WWI the 31 st March, 1861, Molotlive : Wine of sad from tonna conatriee—red, the gallon, 3a.; white, the gallon, 3.. ; leas of such wine, 3s. • with an allowance for drawback oa exported= until the s aid Ilse March, 1161, incluive of Is. per gnus on such wise exported or used as .hip's stona, but that so drawback be granted on lees of wins, and with an allowance of drawback to Ikeased denims on wine who have complied with the provision of the minutia of the Leda of the Treasury dated the 7th July, 1843, se to tin foreign wine which they have had in stock co the Feb., 1860, on the coediting or the said minute at the rate of 2.. fi e d is ter gallon." The resolution having been reed from the Mr. H , AAILLIE said before It was agreed to h e h o p e d th a t more satisfactory inforn.ation wend be gives to the commit tee by the right hon.

In making that queen= he neared the right hos. gentleman that be sad those who sat on that aide of the hones had no objection he thorniness or redo, in n excise denim, and the en cestegemest of trade ; but than was a time for all things, and they thought that when there wee • large and admited deb. many I. the Exchequer this we, sot the ['toper time to make each hoodoo experimente as those roped by the Chaacelkir of the Exchequer. Mr. CRAWFORD nee to express his belief that the al c Aeolic met by mesas of which the wine duties were proposed to be collected would be feud entirely unsuited to the pur pose. It would dread on the skill el the manipulation, the rowan of the instruments, and eves the state of the et re, and one gagger might ninth a wine at 17.7rthe once duty in Linos, while' another might pat it at Is. in Liverpool, the first representing it 15 and the neesd only 14 degrees of strewth.

With reopen to the drawback, the dealer. understood that they were to receive a drawback of 2.. 9,1. per gallon on all wren in stock, provided they complied with the Treasury minute of July, 1842, but they complained that when the let al April, 1861 arrived they would be deprived of their tight by the operation of a sahargoant oniante. The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER wished that the point Wined to by his hos. friend alight be resumed. Mr. CRAWFORD was reined to receive Ibis intimation, and trusted that the hesitation which it evinced on the part of his right hos. friend had seises from what he had heard Entry frees the deputation. &r S. NORTHCOIE said, with reference to the drawback, that the dealers were prepared to abide by the minute, but they complained of ill ambiguity. They believed that the minute ite 1143 wee to • ceneirreble tuna revoked by the subsequent re of 1862. TO CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER explained that the misses el 1862 wily revived that et 1843, and the one hat Weed was emit to every dealer I. the erne.

Mr. CROSSLEY had been very much pleased by the statement mad* by the Chancellor of the Eachequer with regard to the reduction of the wine duties. lie thought Ms right hon. gentleman bed clearly shown that snob a mar sure would improve dir. rtly the position of the middle class. of the country, aod eventually the position of the leheuriag P° gir ;3 1 7070 . 0 ral iatanst enter his protest against the pro position oldie right hue. genilernan in reference t • the re duction of the wine duties.

WOODD trusted the committee would be of opinion that the words of the , olante Gould not bear say other meaning then that the trade had a claim for drawbacks upon all wines enswering the description In the orders, pro vided they had an equal quantity In stock at the time. Mr. M.

Be would only add that the right boo. goatisaima would tarnish his sehasis if he acted temente any body ef M Wonted by it harshly or unjustly.

There wee no OM hr a return of alarthing of duty ; and the wine trade was perfeeliy satis fi ed with the p ro spects before it. Mr. MILNES said - the he thought the wine dealers bad established a very semi case, end If he saw that the feeling of omminittee wee with him, he should take the sense of the Mee on the gnostic& Mr. BALL mid that the right hos. gentleman bad not said garbing in reply to the remarks of his honourable friend (Mr. Cayley), although so parties bad been so severely treated as the British malaise and the British farmer. There was no duty so oppresaive as the duty on malt. They were roams* taunted by the has. member for Birming ham with regard to the principle et proleetkin. He bowed to the declaim of the house ; bat he held then the mama principles he always held, and maintained that the prees held out by the fres-traders had set been realised. They knew that a cheap lost bad been to the 'Leer, but did the poor get • cheap loaf r ( Hue, beer.) Had not prices fluctuated more then ever they did, although they were told that the repeal of the earn laws would produce seediness of peke. Was the shipping interest pleased with the repeal of the navigation laws ? The Edda maltater was tared 50 per ant., end he was besides subjected to such harsh regulations, that if they were ea doled by the manufacturers of Lancashire, the hon. member for Birmingham would make the roof of the house fly off in denouncing them. (Laughter.) They were going to allow the foreigner to introduce barley —to teach him • new business. The right hon. gentleman should allow the British former to make malt for his own stack, and time for the payment of the duty. He had gnat respect for the right hon. gentleman, but he was sorry that the right hon. gap Mama had not the slightest nape* far his opinions. (Laughter.) No person paid the duty on goods in Wad till he took them out, and the British metier should be dealt with on that principle. Mr. BASS feared that the antici of the Chancellor of the Exchequer as to the aaandad otheemiptlon of cheap wins would not be fulfilled. He (Mr. Be.) was prepared to make a great sacrifice la order to amide the Emperor piths French to induce his sabjeote to adopt hes trade principles; he thought it as well to subsidise Prance by a treaty of this kind as in any other way, but he did not think, looking at the circumstances of the wise trade for the hat two or three years, that France would derive much benefit from this treaty. In 1857, after • very good vintage, the preceding one being • very fair one, Frew* bad imported from Spain upwards of twelve millions of pikes of wise—nearly twice as much as we consumed in a year. It followed, therefore, that at least Spain would able to mad us twelve sake galloon to Fraacg tra s three gallica& Even if the thirty or fifty millions of gallons which some anticipated were consumed In this country, the duty, being only about 161. a gallon on the average, would not amount to more the& 700,0001. or 800,0901. The comparison of the Chancellor of the Exchequer be tween the duties on French wines In this country and the duty on tusk liquor in Frame was not fair. He had taken the very lowest class of French wines, which of course showed • high rate of duty ; aed on the other hand be had takes • high clues of Engleh beer, which showed • low rate of duty in proportion. The common ran of her sent to France wee from 20s. to Ws. the barrel, or about Bd. a gams ; sad on this the customs duty wee 3d. • great deal more than 18 per cent. Last year we had Lpetd between 700,000 and 800,000 gallons of French wine—the a oast being 10s. 41. a gallon for white, and 9s. 4d. for red • and the duty on the later was only 10e per omit. It was said by K. Chevalier that French wise hod no equi valent is England ; therefore, the comparison with beer was obviously unfair. The duty on malt was Med by sad of parliament at 21s. Mid. per quarter, bat it was more, owing to the mode in which it wee levied. Last year he had paid Z2s. 4d. per quaeter en 90,000 quartets, and adding the hop duty, equivalent to le.M. • quarter more, the amount was 24e. This, upon barley at 33e. the quarter, was •• duty of about 70 per oent. If they were to have free trade why not take the duty o ff malt? Whatever it had been relieved it had 'bows as much elasti city as other articles. In 1851 • large additional duty of L. 6d. • bushel was imposed, with no corresponding advance of revenue. In 1856, the lc 6d. was taken off, ern leaving the duty 2s. Bd. the boast ; and In the very feet year them was an Increase of 30 per cent. in the economies in Eng land, and of .50 per neat in Ireland. (Hear, ben.) Why should not the Chancellor of the Exchequer, if he was for free trade and at the same time fair trade, give them • chance of retuning him the revenue by reducing the duty on malt (Hear, hear.) Were the malt tax reduced one-half, in three yeast it would yield the same revalue ea now. (Hear, Marl He (Mr. Bass) was for free trade without an and ne should like to see it to malt. (Hear.)

Even the new licensed houses were not to he Mimed for bear, afavour to the wine trade, sad serest *My to the beer trade. The adulteration of Willi in this osantry had hese rehired to ; but he believed there wanes much adulteration in France. Mr. &vile Lumley stated that during the last five or six years Spaniel% wines, mixed sad flavoured with other sub steam, had teen exported to all parts of the world as the float wines of the South of France. Sir E. Teeniest said that in the event of a redaction of the wine duties, our entire system of taxation would have to be re-arranged—that it would involve the necessity of • corresponding reduction Is the duty on brandy—and that then it would be impossible, consistent with justice, to maintain the duties on British spirits, and on Scotch and Irish whieky—(leer)—and that the malt tax moat be got rid of. (11411.) It was most un felt. that British spirits, worth le. Bd. • gallon, should pay a duty of Ba. , while the best kinds of French brandy only paid B.e. 6d. the gallon. Mr. M. MILNES said he wished to withdraw his first amendment, and to submit another to the effect tt that .11 who could prove by any other process to the blend Revenue Commissioners that such stock was acquired and duty laid thereon within two years before the 10th February, 1840," should be allowed &drawback. He thought that would be only simple justice, and that the amendment would recom mend Itself to every hoe. member. The amendment diving been put from thechalr„ Lord J. RUSSELL said the proposition of his hon. friend seemed to him one of the loosest he had ever heard. There were certain rules as to drawbacks, and it was proposed that whether they had been observed or not, all per sons were to be allowed • return of duty. It that was to be the ease, no person could be expected hereafter to observe any .condition that the goverament mlurht mike. The argument of his hoe. hind was this--`t Yon may have dote wrong in granting a large sum of money to certain pereas, but as you Mee granted that sum you ought to grant every other sum that may be milked for." He begged the ommittes to observe what a lavish expenditure that would hod to. Nobody could say how much this would oust, and he usdnetood it would be as least 600,COtli. At any rate it would lead to greet tom ha the revenue, and there fore he hoped his hon. friend would nut persist in pressing hie amendment. (Hear, hear.) _ _ Bir 8.

The CHANCELLOR of the MCGREW: ER Intimated his in.eatioa soaker the next resolution, find, by axing the date at which the lower duties were to Mlle into operation at the let of January, 1681; and, secondly, by exteeding the degrees of alcoholic strength of wine to be admitted as the rats of Is. per dad from It to 18. The next quality, ad roiseibleat 18.8 d., would stand sl2B degrees, and the highest quality at 40. The n solution having been put, Mr. S. FITZGERALD said lb* alterations which the right hon. genilenien haul resolved on Increased the objet. thine he felt to the proposal, because as the resolution was now propueed it was equivalent to • virtual pretsientlal dot on Frisch wines. Again, if there was mes point upon which the wise trade were agreed it woo the ituracucability of carrying oaf the alcoholic test. The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER urged that the German wines would come in In greater quaatiiir under the lower duty then those of France, many of the wines of which country were strong, and would come within the higher duty. Brides., all wines brought In in bottle would pay 2s. a grim, and not n single gars of the whir of the l'aulaimals Cline in in that shape: so that France might well say that there was, in fact, a diffeeentiel duty against her wines, a greet desel of which came in In bottle.

UNIVERSITY INTELLIGENCE. CAMBRIDGE, Fee. 27. The Syodice, appointed to regulate the examina tion' of students who are not members of the University, haverepurted to the Senate . . . . Thei r they have taken into consideration the memorial, which wee addrees4 in October last to the Vice-Chancellor and Senate of the University by a large number of mestere of schools and persons otherwiee engaged in tuition, stating that the present cystatu, under which examinations take place both In June and December in each year, la calculated to interfere with the regular routine of school instruction ' and requesting that step might be taken to consider the expediency and practicability of an arrangement between the Universities of Oxford end Cambridge, so that there may be only one exa mination annually at e ach centre. A similar memorial hav ing been addrered to the Vice-Chancellor and Convocation of the University of Oxford, the delegates there, to whom the regulation of the examinations is committed, nvited the Syc dies to send a deputation to Oxford to confer with them on the subject. [This conference took place on the 7th instant.] The delegates and the Syndics agree entirely in the opinion expressed by the memorialists, that it is d. strable that not more than one examination should take place in a year at say 1 local centre ; end they think that, if the systems of examine don adopted by the two Universities respectively can he made eufficiently alike, arrangements mar be made without difficulty, by which the whole work of the examinations in every year may be divided in nearly equal parts between the two Universities. After much cossulmtion the Byndks beg leave to recommend the following rule in place of that which sue adopted by the Senate on the 19th of March, 1858:—" That no student be admitted to examination among the junior candidates, who will have attained the age of sixteen years before the end of the year in which the examination takes place." The Syn dics have cousidered with greet care the argument. which have been urged in favour of and against the use of II title of proficiency, as well as various titles which have been suggested for the purpose ; and being of opinion that it I. of great importance to the summed the proposed arrangement between the two universities that some tide should be au thorised by the Senate, though it is not essential that such dile should be the same as that adopted by the University of Oxford, they beg leave to resommend that the students who pass the examination for the senior candidates to the sada &often of the examiners be allowed to assume the title of Associate of Cambridge tA.C.). li the two rules now re commended should receive the sanction of the Senate, the Syndics have greet confidence that the arrangements which they will then be able to complete with the delegates of the University of Oxford will be such ea to satisfy the wishes' of the misters of schools and others who take interest In the exemiesuoae, and will at the same time diminish considera tithe labour sad *spew both of the local committees and the delegates and Syndics.

EQUITY COUR'fB.—FAB. 27. (Heim Vice-Chancellor Sir R. T. Kind=ley.) IM 2.3 THE SENT BENEFIT BUILDING SOCIETY TT PARTE TOWNSIND.-IMPORTANT TO MEMBERS OF 1117/LDING SOCIETIES. This cam came on upon adjourned summons from cham bers. It appeared that, several years ago, the Kent Hew itt Building Society purchased a piece of land, called Hop pe/ton-field, which they divided into plots, and Mr. Town semi, who was a member of the society, purchased one of them plots for 331. At that time he bad paid up ocintribia- Hoes on shares to the amount of several pound., and on the land he paid to the directors the difference wan i what he had so paid on these shares and the amount of the purchase-money. This was in 1836. The society has ring come under the operation of the Winding-up Act. It was now contended cm the pars of the official manager that Mr. Townsend ought to be placed on the list of contributories in respect of the shares held by him before he effected the pur chase of the lead, inasmuch as he had not complied with the rule which requires a month's notice to be given for the withdrawal of shame. Oa the other hand, the commie! for Mr. Townsend submitted that, practically, lie had ceased to be a member of the society, Inasmuch as the amount he had paid on his shares had been returned to him, and this was so considered by all the parties at the time, and Townsend did not subsequently attend any of the meetings of the society. The Vice-Chancellor said this society wee a benefit build ing society, and so far as it had acted as a freehold land society its tranaactions were illegal. The 31at and 32nd rules prescribed that any member wishing to withdraw the balsam standing to hire credit might do so on giving 30 dap' notice, and that after such notice no member should be liable to any fines for arrears, nor be entitled to any profits that might accrue. No doubt Mr. Townsend might have with drawn his money and applied it to any purpose he pleased, and if he bad done ao he would bats cewd to be a member. He did not do that, however; but he purchased a plot of bad of the directors and paid them the difference between the amount he had paid on his shares and the purchase money. He could not regard that em an operation under the 31st and 32nd rules, when in point of fact the parties had not the smallest idea on either side of operating under those rules. The society were acting, not as if they were a beatelt building society, but as a freehold land society, which they had no right to do, and therefore it appeared to him, though he was reluctant to come to that conclusion, that he was bound to put Mr. Townsend on the list of contributories. It was stated that there were a number of other cams In which the circumstances were similar, end it wee speed that this decision should apply to them also. CENTRAL CRIMINAL COURT. Joh* dimuiers, 26, a respectable looking young man, de scribed as a traveller, pleaded guilty to two Indictments charsing him with embezzling money the property of bis master, Edward Pritehard. Tits prisoner was sentenosd to twelve months' hard labour. Dryden dlitch, 36, was indicted for misdemeanor in having obtained various sums of money by false pretences. It appeared that the prisoner, who is &person of respectable appearance had gone to the shops of several tradesmen at the meat end of town and represented that he was collector fur the City of London Consumptive Hospital, Victctia-park, and another charitable institution of the tame description at Brompton, and be informed the parties to whom he applied that the funds of both institutions were in a very low condi tion and that any person who subecribed would have the privilege of introducing two patients. The prisober was prri• aided with books and papers for the purpose of lulling mew 'ion, and itappeared that upon the faith of the statements made by hint a great number of perm= gave him various sums of stoney, ranging between If. and 2s. 6d. fa amount. It wan proved that the prisoner had no connexion whatever with either of the institutions he referred to, and the whole pro ceeding was a fraud upon the public. The prisoner cross-examined the witnesses at considerable length, and he endeavoured with a good deal of ingenuity to show that be bed merely solicited aubecripi ions for what he called a " national work," which be intended to publish under the title of " John Bull's Confessions in reference to the Solemn Fast and Humiliation," the proceeds of which he intended to apply for the benefit of the hospitals that had beta referred to. The witnesses, however, declared that there was no foundation for the suggestion made by the pri miter. and that the money was given solely upon the pri soner's representation that he was collecting it for the benefit of the consumption hospitals at Victoria-park and Brompton. The ury returned a verdict of Guilty. The Recorder ordered the prisoner to be kept to hard labour for eighteen months. Gwen Gallivan, 36, wert charged with feloniously cutting and wounding Eliza Gallivan, with intent to do her grievous bodily berm. 111 r. Lilley prosecuted. The prisoner we... defendel by Mr. Sleigh. The jury returned a verdict of Guilty. In answer to questions put by the learned judge, the =- fortunate prows:sari: Mated that the prisoner had been con stantly in the habit of acting with greet cruelty towards her, and upon one occasion he gouged one of her eyes out with a fork. _ The Recorder Inqtdred whether any proceedings were taken against him for that bru'al act ? Tha prosecutrix stated that he was tried for it at this court, and sentenced to eta months' imprisonment. The Recorder, whit fur ire—What 1 six months' i mpris3n moot only for depriving you of the sight of an eye ? The prosecutrix said that wee the sentence that wee passed upon him. The prisoner was then sentenced to six pan' ;anal servitude. 7HE POLICE COUB7B. MANSION-ROUSE. JUliell (Inger, a gentlemanly-looking young foreigner, was charged before Bir Robert Carden with assaulting John Han&roan, police constable 472, while in the execution of his duty. The oompleinist said—This morning about half-past 11, I wee on duty In Wood-street, Cheepeide, where • very large fire bad broken out. Theirs was • great crowd collected, and we bad received orders from our inspector to keep it beck, end let no person pus by that way. The delendant was there and wanted to pass through Wood-street, but I told him I could not allow him to do so, and that he must go back, lie said he should not move, and no one should move him, and I wee obliged to push him several yards. Directly 1 laid my hand on him be struck me on the breast. I milted him to go beck before I pushed him. I wu then obliged to take him into custody. Sir R. Catden—Did you tell him before you pushed him that you bad received orders to remove the crowd back!' Pulicemao—Yes. my lord. Sir R. Carden—What have you to say, defendant ? Defendant—Why, what the officer states is false. This is jut what happened turned down Wood-street, when I perceived • very large lire, and the Street wee blocked up by en immense crowd. Having some business to transact in Gresham-strest, I made my way through the crowd. the inspector told me I could not pare that way, and Immediately three or four polivemen, the corn , phinant amongst the number, began pushing and trying to tures rue back. I spoke to the Inspector and they diem's thud for a few minutes, but I suddenly felt • viohnt blow on my back, and 1 turned quickly round and asked who had dose that, sedans of the policemen laughed at me. The OPM. claimant then again pushed ins violently, and I went to take his number, when be knocked me down. They told me to get back, but the crowd was too thick. I est teinly did then strike him on the chest, or rather push him, and I was im mediately seized by three of Were, two of whom collared and nearly strangled me, and the third one held my arms behind. My pocket-book and handkerchief wets lost in the sciatic, and they dragged me down Cheapeide se if 1 had committed murder or some other desperate crime. I begged of them to treat me as • gentleman, but they only laughed at me. I have been in England for five years, but bare never come is contact with the pollee before. They used me brutally. I have a dozen whams/ in court to prove what I state. Edward Beholder, and many other witnesses, proved every word the defendant had state and sold the conduct of the constable was brutal in the extreme. Defendant—There is • little boy is curt whom he kicked, my lord. Sir R. Carden—la there, Indeed; then let him stand up. The little boy then stood up, and showed his leg, which wee still bleeding from the effects of the kick. Sir R. Carden—.Who did that ? Boy—The policeman - because I c odd not get back quick enough. It was quite impossible for me to move with such a crowd behind. Poliorman-1 never raw that boy betiro in my life, your worehip. Several witnesses, however, proved that ha bad kicked the boy. Sir It. Cadet (tn the rillcemas)—l know you have an arduous task to perform ; but I am sure that in this instance you have exceeded your duty. To do say on have done, I. every respect, is certainly not your duty. To drag &gentle man, for you mould tell he nes • gentleman, along the streets as you did is inexcasable.
