The ace nut for the quarter ending this day plume a total increase of about 5,000,0001., as compared with the corresponding quarter of hat year Out of this sum about thirteen hundred thousand pounds is derived from malt, spirita, and paper. About 3,500,0001. are yielded by the income tax .ra ing to the increased rate, and there are small iocreawm under the heads of Stamps, Post-office, amid Miscellaneous Items. There ix a &cream of about 380,0001. on etuttome, arming from the operation of the commercial treaty with France. The year's account exhibits an increase +1 about 340,0001. on customs ; this would have been even larger but for the special cause of decrease referred to above. The incr...aac is derive," from rum, tea, tobacco, mat eurraata. On Emile there is an increase of nearly 2,1300,000 f• —proceeding from almost every item— malt, spirits, paper, and hops showing the largest increase. On the year the increase in income tax will be nearly 3,040,0001 Stamps, taxes and Post-office also yield as incrvam The total amount for the year given an incremee of ala.ut 5i minnow. The only item experiencing • deerwaxe i. that entitled "tanwellaneous," which last year included a large mm for the sale of old aut./Alia stoma after the Crimean war. TEE TEE case of Switzerland, as regards ost the one hand and France on the othi clear and unanswerable that A canzzot ii so too simply on its OWB facts and merits, is a - question of public law and of international equity. Sir Rower Pm might have done some service last night by bringing his local knowledge, and even the " impressions" de rived from • long residence on the spot, to bear upon the case, and by claiming for it, without exaggeration or excitement, the earnest attention of the House and the country. But, instead of this, Sir RORZRT Pm took up the running at the top of his speed, and when he ought to have come to the point fairly bolted oft the oourse. Even this comparison suggests something more to the purpose than his performance last night. For almost as anon as he started he threw "the ques tion " off, and frisked, and gambolled, and shied, and plunged like a yearling in a paddock, letting fly left and right at the member for Birmingham, at M. THOUVRIIBIL, at the Emperor of the Farms, at NAPOLRON 1. , at VICTOR EMMANUEL, at M. Di Cavourt, without for • moment settling to his stride. As for his deli cate attentions to Mr. Barony, it was for all the world like an amateur of the noble science sparring at a smiling " old-un " with the gloves on, and we must do Mr. BRIGHT the justice to say that he looked as if he could take • good deal more of it without winking. It was • speech, not only without form and void, but actu ally without beginning, middle, or end, like human rife as it is conceived in Worms- WORTH'S magnificent sonnet. It was utterly wanting in the two essential requirements of oratory—the art of saying what you mean to say, and the art of not saying what you don't mean to say—and when the subject happens to be almost one of peace or war, the speaker a "Sir ROBERT Pm," and the audience not only the British Parliament but all Europe, our readers will imagine how disastrous the lack of two of the vulgarest qualifications may become. Sir ROBERT Pm has been an attachd and • charg6 d'affaires ; therefore he speaks French ; therefore—we were going to say—he is acquainted with French history ; but we are not so sure of this, though in these days leis not permitted to tidewaiters to speak of Ricnauso as the Minister of Huai Qom& But without stickling for the Anglo-Saxon purism of Lord Macartav, why, we may ask, inflict upon the House as many scraps of French as we may find in a single chapter of one of those tales of fashionable lie in the composi tion of which lady-novelists relieve their pent-up feelings and their impetuous grammar 1 Why re-translate extracts from M. Tuotivarszes de spatches and the EMPEROR'S speeches, which have been served up in every newspaper in Europe to every kind of sauce? It is almost as bad as telling everybody you meet that you keep • French cook, though you can't ask everybody you meet to din ner. Surely these are affectations which a par liamentary orator who is anxious to be taken seriously should eschew. The want of due preparation gives an air of incoherence to a speaker's principles. Sir ROBERT PAIL last night went out of his way to champion " the freedom of the press," which nobody attacked, and which in England can take very good care of itself ; to describe the familiar facts of the bankrupt condition of Austria, the incapa city of the Austrian generals, and the solidity of the Austrian soldiers ; to repudiate the "divine " right of kings," and to contrast the present VICTOR EMMANCIL with his ancestors, who, after all, are chiefly remarkable in history for steadfastly pursuing the good old rule, the simple plan of getting and keeping as much as possible. But what is all this to the Swiss question 1 If V :croft Emmanuel. gives up his Savoyards it is simply because he can't help it ; because when France goes to war for an "idea," that "idea " is " an eye for an eye, and a tooth for " a tooth." The late estimable Prince of Moicaoo, (the father of the gentleman who has recently sold hie subjects for an annuity,) as the inscription on his tomb bears witness, " wished his people well ;" so does the King of SARDINIA to the Savoyards when he wishes them good-bye, and turns his face to Central Italy. Sentiment and vituperation are equally useless in such a case. The Swiss ques tion is quite another matter ; it is, as Sir Roamer PRIL justly declared, a question of European interest, and if when Sir Rosser sat down last evening neither Government nor Opposition supported his appeal, it was not because the appeal, in spite of all its sincerity and fervour, was in form and delivery a failure, still less because the House cared nothing for the clients of the appellant ; but because in truth this Swiss question has gotbeyondthestageof cross questions and crooked answers—"nay, more," (as Sir Roemer is wont to say when he is coming to an anti-climax,) it has got beyond the stage of vehement interpellations and spirited replies, sad is actually awaiting the most solemn examination before the High Court of the Great Powers of Europe. Tea Paris papers which reached London yes terday prepare their readers for a fierce warfare between the journals of the French and English press. We are unable to discover the grounds of this expectation. The most polemical disposition must have material for its nourishment, but at present the Savoy business furnishes no questions to discuss. Attempts to supply this defect, such as those of M. THOUVENEL in his two despatches lately published, only press the painful fact on the mind with more distinctness. The course which the French Government has chosen to take is so simple and intelligible, that it can be judged on the com monest principles of morality. It has made • profound impression on the mind of England, as our neighbours know by this time. They may not know that those most painfully affected are they who believed in French professions of magnanimity and disinterestedness, and who have most con sistently supported the French alliance as a means of European progress and a pledge of European peace. However, those illusions are of the past. We are not disposed to dwell on them, or to com pare them with the naked reality of the present. The English press has done its duty in expressing the unanimous judgment of the nation, and we do not think it will lend itself to bestow by counter argument a semblance of reality upon mock reason ings in support of acts which have their basis only in material power. It will be seen from our Parliamentary report that the resumption of the adjourned debate on the Reform Bill is fixed for the 20th of April. The general retardation of public business, and the time consumed in discussing the financial mea sures of the Government, had made this postpone ment necessary. In reply to Mr. Ramat, who suggested last night that it would be desirable to dispose of the questions involved in the Budget before proceeding further with the Reform Rill, so that the House might be enabled to go on coati- 1, ~ >~ IE SIT 1 nuonak with that measure, Lad Jolla? sail ilia was very much the eourse whicli z ihe Goaaniasent intenpiaa to take. Re trails* Ml* by the date mentioned all the principalTtaedioaa involved in the debate would have been tone through. By the end of the month of April, hehoped, they might go into committee on the Reform Bill, and proceed with it continuously on Government order days. Cbt Court.

ARCH TEST INTALIGENCE: FRANCS PARIS, SATossa.r. The Constitoti(mne/ has an article, signed by its chief editor, M. Orandgnillot, endeavouring to re fute the diatribes of the English orators and journalists. This article recalls that Napoleon has done everything to render the alliance acceptable, which, E ruptured, would be the signal for a struggle and for fresh troubles. M. Grandguillot believes " this alliance is so firmly connected with modern ideas and necessities that a partial denial will not be strong enough to break it." ROME. (aarnues TELZOILIN.) ROME, MARCH 27 (via Marseilles). It is asserted that the Pope has again written to King Victor Emmanuel, declaring that his Holi ness will be compelled to interrupt all relations with the royal family, and threatening to employ the most extreme severities of the church should the King persist in occupying the Legations. In case of its evacuation by the French, Rome will be moupied by the Pontifical troops. Neapoli tan troops will enter the Marches. At Ancona 3,000 men of the papal army are concentrated. General Lamoriciiire is about to inspect the garri sons. A new revolutionary demonstration in Rome was intended but did not take place, because, by printed sheets, secretly distributed, the people were told that the French troops might beams annoyed. The official journal directs the attention of its readers to the manifestations which took place on Friday and Sunday last during the passage of the Pope, and mentions that 300 Irish had been re ceived at the Irish college and at the French semi nary. The journal adds that Ireland has always been heroic even under the secular misfortunes under which she labours. COUP-DE-11AIN IN NORTH SAVOY. We hive received the following copy of a des patch from Berne : " BEZNE, MARCH 30, 4 o'ctocc. " A body of about fifty armed meu from Geneva made an attempt (ont taste an coup-de-main) upon Thonon last night. The Federal Council has sent off a commissioner to Geneva, and has directed that a rigorous inquiry should be instituted, with a view to the punishment of the guilty. The government of Geneva, unanimously supported, has loudly blamed such imprudent conduct. It has issued a proclamation announcing that those who have been guilty of this act will be punished, and energetic measures have been adopted to pre vent the repetition of any similar attempt" Thonon is the chief town of Chadds* on the southern shore of Lake Leman. According to the brief despatch furnished by Mr. Reuter, the party concerned in this aimless movement left Genova on board one of the steamers plying on the lake. As the country is still in legal possession of the Sar dinian government, it is at Turin that the Swiss authorities will have to present their explanations and apologies. Although the greatest excitement prevails throughout the Confederation in view of 1 1 the threatened occupation of North Savoy by France, the Federal Government is certain to re ceive the support of the entire republic in marking its displeasure at an act calculated to prejudice that reputation for legality which the Swiss enjoy in Europe. OENEVA, itAsof 30, HALF-PAST 10 P.Y. The landing failed and the result was ridiculous. Perrier with his band of Radicals (sa bande de Fruitiers) were stopped on the lake by the Militia, and brought back prisoners to Geneva. Ziegler is examining them at this moment. He has full powers from the Federal Council. Public confidence is restored. FRANCE AND SAVOY. PARIS, Pamir, itkaca 30. The Pays publishes a despatch, announcing that General Garibaldi has been elected deputy for Nice, but only at the second election, as the necessary number of votes was not obtained at the first ballot. The name paper has an article by M. Grunier de Cassagnac, expressing its regrets on account of the reproaches of England con cerning the annexation of Savoy, and pointing out the contradictions in the conduct of that power, who, although encouraging the an nexation of Central Italy to Piedmont, opposes that of Savoy to France ; and who, while support ing the project of the annexation to Sardinia of the States of the Church and of Naples, which two countries do not solicit such annexation, refuses to accede to the desire of the inhabitants of the lonian Islands to be re-united to Greece. PRUSSIA. BERLIN, SAlulnAr, MARCH 31. Hanover has raised fresh difficulties with respect to the redemption of the Stade dues. The 14th May next has beer fixed by England as the final term for Hanover to give in her declaration. The %rens Zeitung ;ay' : "The reply of Prussia to M.Thouvenel's despatch is in reality of a rather evasive character. It ex- presses great dissatisfaction on account of the an nexation of Savoy, but it cannot be characterised as a protest. As regards the claims of Switzerland, Prussia has not yet sent her reply to the note of the Federal Council. The statement that Prussia intend, to establish two fortified encampments ia, according to reliable information, without any foundation." THE TWO SICILIES. NAPIZB, ][sacs 26 (via Genoa). It is asserted that the Am ors of the Wes tern Powers have remitted collective notes to the government, in order to determine the King to adopt reforms. The Marquis di Villamarina was received yester day by the King, who is said to have communicated to the marquis that the Neapolitan troops had crossed the frontiers, against which report adds M. di Villamarina protested. It is also said that the Ministry have tendered their resignation to the King, but that his Majesty refused to accept it. The address of the nobility and gentry and of the citizens of Dublin to Lord Seaton, upon his retirement from the ofßee of Commander of the Forms, adopted at • pubbe meeting, held in the Mansion-house, was presented on Thursday.

PARIS. FRIDAY Evwo. The text of the treaty for the cession of Savoy and Nice to France, which is published in the Monsieur, contains nothing new ; the entire sub stance of it was contained in the analysis given by the official journal a few days since. The Pays has an article by K (Iranier de Cas sagnac, which merely says ditto to one of K Grandguillot's last. The scope of the argument is that England, by thwarting the Villafranca scheme for an Italian confederation, and encouraging Sax- , dins to effect the annexation of the whole of Cen tral Italy, is the only breaker of the treaties of 1815, and is alone responsible for the events which made it a necessity for France, with a view of self preservation, to " rectify her frontier" by the incorporation of Savoy and Nice. The apparent object of these articles is to dissuade other powers from coming to any underat.niling with England about the affairs of Europe. Although it was taken for granted, on the re ceipt of the telegram from Rome to-day, that the Ring of Sardinia had been solemnly excommuni cated, I doubt whether the bull of excommunication which it seems has been placarded at Rome mentions his name. At all events his name is not in the despatch, and it has been stated that the Pope meant to excommunicate in a general way all who had anything to do with the annexation of the Romagna, but without designating individuals. If this be so, the piquancy of the excommunica tion, which all the world is disposed to make fun of, will be considerably diminished. The Gazette de Lyon asserts that the Emperor of Russia has sent an autograph letter to the Pope, condoling with him upon the encroachments on his sovereign rights, and expressing an opinion that his cause is one which concerns all Christians of whatever denomination. Garibaldi, a staunch anti-annexationist, has been definitively elected • member of the Turin parlia ment for Nioe. The French journals account for this election, and several others, by saying that the vast majority of the electors, who are annexa tioniata, were advised to abstain. Garibaldi will now probably avail himself of the option reserved by the treaty to remain a Sardinian citizen. It is hardly likely that he would expose himself to be shipped off to Cayenne under the law of public safety. The Emperor will review a large cavalry force to morrow on the Longchanips racecourse, on the occasion of several regiments leaving Paris for other garrisons. The Sentimelk du Jura says : Far several &ripest the roadsof our department have been crowded with military waggons laden with gunpowder and munitions of war, escorted by gendarmes. These stores are sent from the arsenals of Besancon to the two forts of Salina and Rouses, which protect the French frontier against invasion from the Swiss side. The Senate yesterday voted the previous question upon the petitions in favour of intervention on behalf of the Pope's temporal power, by a majority of 116 against 16. The debates of the Napoleonic Senate are always secret. It appears from the Moniteur that the speakers in support of the peti tions wore CardinalsDonnet, Mathieu, Qousaet, and Morlot, Baron de Cronseihes, Bishop de Masenod, and the Marquis de Bonny ; the debate on the government side was sustained by M. Baroche, K Dupin, the Procureur-General of the Court of Ces sation, and M. Tourangin. The unsound character of the late rise at the Bourse, upon which I insisted in my last two or three letters, has been strikingly illustrated to-day. While Consols remain steady, the late compara tively trivial fall being accounted for by the aug mentation of the bank's discount, and while the only political news is the not unexpected event of the excommunication launched at Rome, the French Rentes have suffered violent oscillations in a wild market, and leave off, with a fall of lfr. 30c. for cash, and lfr. 15c. for ac count, at 69fr. 10c. and 69fr. 30c. The closing prices were not the lowest of the day, the extreme points having been 70fr. 75c. and 69fr. be. ; the fluctuation therefore was lfr. 70c. Mobilier fell 35fr. The railways suffered severely ; Orleans fell 20fr. ; Northern, 16fr. 26c. ; Lyons, 17fr. 50e. ; Southern, 13fr. 75c. ; and Eastern, sfr. Western remains with scarcely any change. M. Taglioni, the father of the celebrated dancer, has just been operated upon for cataract, at the age of 83. His delight when, on the removal of the apparatus at the end of three days, he was able to recognise the features of his child and to become acquainted with those of the successful operator, was indescribable..

Beekley with fraudulently obtaining Is. from Charles Cornelius, recruiting bombenlier, who deposed that on the previous afternoon the prisoner presented himself at the Woo!peck, Minories, and expressed a wish to enlist, upon which witness asked him the usualstions, in reply to which the prisoner said he was a si ngle man, that his age was 28 years, and that he lived at 1 , Old Compton-street, Soho ; upon which witness gave him Is., and told him to come again at 5 o'clock and see the sergeant. da7eXt Saunders said the prisoner came to him on Fri. an rnoon, at five o'clock, and directly he (the sergeant) maw him he felt quite convinced that he never intended to enter the army, so, by way of precaution, he again put the questions, to which the prisoner gave the same answers as to the previous witness. Thereupon he (the sergeant) at once sent to Old Compton-street, and ascertained that there was no such number as 134 there. When the messenger returned he told the prisoner, who con. famed that he had given a false nddreas, and adm ittedj fur. ther that he was thirty-six years old, and a married man, both of which admissions disqualified him for the army, and, therefore, witness immediately gave him into custody. The Lord Mayor—What do you say, prisoner? Do you wish to enter the army ? Prisoner--Y!!, I do. _ . The Lord Ilityor—Well, why can't you take him. sergeant ? Sergeant—lt's against the regulations, since he said be was married, and that he wanted to enlist to get away from his wife. Mr. Goodman (chief clerk)—lf you prosecute, he must go to the Old Bailey, and as he was nut attested, there may be some difficulty in the caae. Sergeant—lt does not matter. We intend to put a stop to this sort of thing, for my party is always being robbed in this way, especially by tailors and shoemakers. The prisoner, whose wife was fainting in court, was then removed. APPALLING MURDER IN CUMBERLAND. The tranquillity of the beautifully rural vale of Embleton, lying between Keswick and Cockermouth (two =ilea from the latter town), and washed by Bmsenthwaite Lake, has been fearfully disturbed by a murder of a moat atrocious description perpetrated in the open day. The vic. tim is a young woman named Graliam, of attractive appear. since who was servant to Mr. Thomas Fearon, farmer, of Beck.house, Embleton. On Monday her master and mistress went to Cockermouth market, leaving the deceased in charge of the house. Some respectable men from Keswick, in the employment of Mr. Leather, of the Royal Oak Hotel, and Mr. Ladyman, spirit merchant, had game on that day to Beck House, to cart hay and oats, and Aiued on the premises with Graham, who seemed in excellent spirits, and some other persons. When they lett the house, there was no one with the deceased except a farm-servant from Eagle:field, named John Cans. About half-past three, a neighbour going to the premises, found the street door bolted, and the window-blind of the eating-room down. On entering, a shocking sight pre.ented itself. Graham must have been in the sizt of cleaning the grate, as the brush and black-lead were lying by her side when she was assassinated. Her head was nearly severed from the body, being, in fact, only attached to it by the back skin, sail the murderer in order to make it appear that she had committed the dee d' herself, had placed • large knife in her left hand, but the weapon was in • reversed position, its leek being away from the wrist. There wore three stabs in the right brest, and both arms above the elbows were black and discoloured, as if they had been subjected to violent measure. The wall, moreover, of the apartment had a bloody mark upon it, corresponding with a man's hand. Ones has been appre hended on suspicion. THE MURDER AT WALKERINGHAM, NOTTS. The final examination of the prisoner, John Fenton, who stands charged with the wilful murder et Charles Spencer, took place before the East &Hord bench of magistrates yesterday. Sonic aililitiouid evidence wan called to prove that a brace of pistole similar to those found by the body of the murdered man hod been seen in the poi. soner's house. The chief evidence which was given during the day, however, was that tendered by Mr. W. Hera peth, microscopist and analytic chemist, of Bristol, who deposed to finding ldood upon various articles of clothing belonging to the prisoner, the globules of which were of the diameter of human blood. He found also two human hairs upon the prisoner's leggings. Upon examining the hair from the head of the murdered man, he found it to contain • large proportion of grey Lair, and these hairs, which were less changed by time, he found to be somewhat darker in tint than those hairs found upon the clothing. The hair of the prisoner, who war eVi. dently a younger man than the decenasl, if he might be al. lowed to judge him from the colour of the hair, was also darker than the hair found upon the clothing. The sped. UMW of mud and earth had only been partially examined, without any definite result being :it pn..sent amved t in the opinion of witness, the sprinkled character of the blood dame upon the articles p ro duced could ant have been caused by the act of falling into a bloody spot or a vessel full of hlooL He believed the blood had been jerked ou the dress by the action of the heart—a living heart—of the party from whom it came. At the conclusion of Mr. Henipath'a eviden the prisoner, who, in answer to the usual question, declined tow ything, was fully committed to Nottingham to take his trial on the capital charge.
