of a Million and a platter were derived from the foreign loan. The expenditure is estimated at 17,986,674 dol lars, leaving a deficiency of 7,296,066 dollars. Of the expenditure, that of the army forms the principal part, being 16,011,990 dollars; it is, however, intended to reduce the ec - inse of this blanch to twelve millions dollars. The Mexican Minister, in looking to the means of Meeting the deficiency, expresses Hs disgust at the decline and abandonment of one of the richest branches of the revenue; this is the tax on tobacco, which formerly produced 4,447,000 dollars, and now only yields about 700,000 dollars. Ile proposes that the provinces shall altogether give up their interference in the manufacture and taxing of Tobacco, as the only mode of assisting the necessities of the Treasury. He observes, that in the five years from 1795 to 1799, the gross receipts of the Treasury were 20,462,317 dollar—" How fortunate," he observes, " should we call ourselves, if we could get the net amount of those receipts, which was 15,325,065 dollars. It ap pears to me to be easy to do so, if we abandon unknown roads to pass oc er those already trodden,sure of reaching the point to which we direct our steps. In the epoch of which I spoke, tobacco produced 3,927,898 dollars net, the coinage of gold and silver 1,258,338. The duties on both metals, in ingots, 2,111,474 dollars. The three together amounted to 7,297,710, and it will be' seen that we can collect, in the year 1825, 6,649,563 dollars, if the revenue of tobacco, the coinage, and the duty of quintos (a tax on silver), were supported by the legislative power, at the height at which they might be maintained, now that the population of consumers is increased by the entrance of foreigners, and now that the mines are worked at the expense of the latter." The Mint of Mexico, which formerly was so prra, ductive, now scarcely pays the expense of the establish ment; and the Minister expresses his regret that " the tidies, buried in the bowels of the earth, remain there even after years of protection." Some of our milting speculators will, however, we doubt not, put the Mexi can Minister into the way of deriving revenue from the Mines of Mexico, which only require to be well worked, to be very productive. Although this Memorial does not exhibit a very flat tering picture of the Mexican Revenue, yet now that internal tranquillity is restored, the resources of the Re pnblic, with good management, will soon cover the expenses and enable the Government to tree itself from all embarrassment. We have received Canada Papers to the 11th ult.— From Quebec, we are informed, that the statements of the Provincial Revenue had been laid before the House of Assembly. The Revenue during the last year amounted to about 110,0001. which, deducting the prc. portion for Upper Canada, left about 83,0001. for the expenditure of the other Province—a sum consider ably above the ordinary expenditure. The value of imports in 1824 was 1,212,2171. and that of expoits 925,1531. The imports of 1824 exceed those of 1823 by 188,000/. upwards of 6u,0001. of which is on the al. title of rum alone. The other articles making up the eiiciea.e are, sugar, coffee, tea, and gocds paying 2i per cent. As to the exports, the most prominent arti cle is ashes: in 1823 the quantity exceeded that of 1824 by 76,0001. but the whole amount of exports ex ceeds that of the previous year by 3,6251. By these Papers w•e also learn - that the Hnn. J. Rat! had been appointed Chief Justice of the Court of King's Bench, for Montreal, in the room of the Hon. J. MONCK. N. F.

Sir WALTER SCOTT has declined the konour of being 'lector of St. Andrew's University, on the score of his increasing years and aversion to business. In the STAR of Monday, we stated that a Gentle man was found dead oa the road, near Maidstone, having been thrown from his gig. The Gentleman was Jamas Orraway, Esq. one of the Coroners for the county of Kent. He was found on Saturday night, about twelve o'clock, quite lifeless, in the turnpike. road, in the parish of Marden, between Stilebtidge and Staplehurst, oh his chaise and horse, as we stated, standing by the body. ?dr. OTTAWAY had been to Rochester on professional business, on Sa turday, and passed through Stilebridge Turnpike-gate, between ten and eleven at night, on his return home. From the appearance of the gig, one of the shafts of which was broken, it is supposed that the horse must have swerved from the road, and the carriage coming in contact with some imdiment, the unfortunate Gentle man was throw n o u t by t h e shock pe . A violent contusion was found 4on the back part of the head, and the surgeon who first eiamined the body, gave it as his opinion, that a violent concussion of the brain took place, and that death was instantaneous. Monday, an Inquest was held on view of the body, by J. N. Du:now, F.sq. Co roner, aid a respectable Jury of the Parishioners of Marden ; %when, atter the examination of the Surgeon, and the person who first discovered the deceased, a verdict was taken of " Accidental °lath," and a deodand of Ss. levied on the carriage. Mr. Or• t'iwsr was a man of most amiable disposition and gentlemanly habits, eminent in his profession as a lawyer, and universally es teemed.

Ilia Majesty's Stag Hounds met yesterday at bidden Bridge, near Reading, and had a very sharp run for twenty-five milts. The deer at starting took for Sonning, where she crossed the river, and shortly afterwards re-crossed a little on this side of Read ing. and passed through his Majesty's meadow into the Forbury, where she was soon routed by the inhabitants. Having again found her legs, she retreated, and skirted the borders of Reading, and was taken at Meats., between Reading and Newbury, on the Bath road. The deer making her appearance in the Forbury, caused an unusual sen sation among the inhabitants, who immediately saddled their horses to follow the hounds. It is said by those high in the sporting circles, that Lord S-- has made a bet of 1,000 guineas with Lord that the latter will not ride from London to Oxford, on the sante horse, between sunrise and sunset. The match takes place on the first of June.— As Lord K. cannot be considered as a light weight, much curiosity is excited as to the result. THE RING. The deposit for the fight between Lenney and Young Sam, was made good on Monday night at George Cooper's. They will fight on Monday next, for 25 (on Lenney) against '2O. The friend of Young Gas was not forthcoming, and the match between hint and Gaynor has evaporated. PEDESTRI ANISM. Mattingley, the Nottinghamshire pedestrian, started early yester day morning, to go fronsTottenham-court.road to a place near South Slims, fifteen miles, in one hour and a half, at two starts, resting ten minutes. Ile did his miles within a few seconds of six minutes under and over, and accomplished the ten miles within an hour, and halted, and then performed the remaining five miles in half a minute less than the half hour, winning cleverly. It was for twenty sovereigns. THE ORANGE INSTITUTION.—The Orangemen of Ireland, on Friday, in Grand Lodge assembled, came to an unani mous Resolution to dissolve their Body. Sunday night, Mrs. Roberts, of Green Harbour-place, Skinner-street, Snow-hill, was dreadfully burned by her clothes catching fire while sitting in the parlour reading a Bible. Iler son had retired to rest a few minutes pre vious, and hearing his mother's screams he went to her assistance, and endeavoured to extinguish the flscries by rolling her in the carpet; in so doing he was very much injured by the fire. Both mother and son wer e conveyed to the Hospital, where the for rater lingered until yesterday, when she died. EXPLOSION OF GAS.—Monday evening, an explosion or gas took place in the shop of Mr. Harrison, a tailor, in Worship -street, Shoreditch. There is no gas laid on in Mr. Harrison's house, but owing to some defect in the pipes which pass underneath the footpath immedi ately in front of the shcp, for the supply of the street lamps, the gas had escaped, and forced its way beneath and throu;.;ll the flooring of the shop. On Mr. Harri son's enter ing with a lighted candle, the gas inflamed and exploded, not with one burst, but rather, as he de scribed it, with a succession of explosions, somewhat in the manner of a feu de joie. The boards of the flooring were forced upwards by the violence of the shocks, but the shutters not being closed, the gas found vent the Dag') the windows, every pane in s hich was destroyed, and the fragments carried to the opposite side of the street. We understand a very unfortunate occurrence has taken place at Mount:itch. A number of persons were drinking in a public-house, when they were fired at through the window, and (our informant says) two s hot dead, and another, in making his escape, is as stabbed. Six of the perpetrators of this outrage have been appre hended and identified, and their arms, which were those of the Yeomen, taken from them.—DuNias t:verrita,4 Post • CORN EXCHANGE, MARK-LANE, mancii In our Marka this day scarctly any thing has bevy dune; the prime parcels of Wheat are at .Monday 's price, but inferior are dull.

Yesterdayi a Gentleman went to the Mansiowhouse, almost breathless, and stated that he had been ilLused at the Stock Eschange, which place be had entered, conceiving it was open to the Public ; but no sooner had he got in, than he was assailed by a number of I pei sons, who knocked off his hat, and afterwards knocked him down, and beat him severely—that in the scuffle he had torn a silk handkerchief from one of their necks, which he produced, with a gold pin in it, and part of a shift, hill, collar, &c. The LORD MAYOR directed Mr. Cope, the Marshal, to go and make some inquiry respecting it. Mr. Cope soon afterwards re turned, accompanied by several Members, when the Gentleman gave his name J. Harrold, and stated that he lived at No, '25, Friday•street, Cheapside ; that he went into the Stock Exchange yesterday morning, and on his entry was asked if he was a Member ?—he could not recollect what answer he made, for he was instantly surrounded (a signal being previously given), his hat was knocked off, and he himself knocked down. One of the Gentlemen present struck him, and he seized him by the handkerchief; which was torn off in the scuffle. Mr. J. Langhorne, the Gentleman alluded to, stated that the complainant seized him without any pro vocation on his part, and held him so fast by his cravat that some persons were compelled to cut it through, to prevent his being strangled ; that after being struck se veral times he was dragged to the door, and thrown down the steps into the court, and w as severely injured by the fall. Mr. Percival Clarke, a Member, stated, that when the complainant came in, lie asked him if he were a Member of the House? to which be replied, " Undoubtedly I am ;" that shoal) , after lie saw the complainant surrounded by a number of persons, one of whom 1w was holding by the collar. He did not see the commencement of the affray. Several Gentle men confirmed the ab we statement; and added, that the complainant positively refused to quit, after being requested to do so.—The LORD MAYOR said, that he regretted the Members of the Stock Exchange were in the habit of treating strangers so uncetemoniously, and thought the Committee ought to put a stop to such disgraceful practice. One of the Managers stated, that the Committee had long since endeavoured to do so, but without effect. The LORD MAYOR then said, he should dismiss the complaint, and Mr. Hatrold might indict the parties at the Sessions, if lie thought proper. Mr. 11. said he certainly should do so, and requested to be furnished with their names, which were given to him, and he then left the Office. POLICE INTELLIGENCE. GUILDHALL. Robert Pearce and Robert Purdy;;;;Crought up for final exa mination yesterday, before Mr. Alderman AIMS, the former a porter with Messrs. Ashford and Rayner, of the Steel-yard, Thames street, charged with robbing his employers, and the latter with re ceiving the stolen property.—Committed for trial. H ATTON-G A EDEN. Nathaniel Mountford, a respectable-looking young min, was brought up in the custody of Read, jun. charged by Messrs. Cuhitt and Co. architects, of Gray's Inn-road, with having embezzled money to a considerable extent while in their employ as a confide:l. tial pay-clerk. The prisoner was ordered to give twenty four hours' notice of bail, each surety in a hundred pounds, and himself in two hundred pounds recognisances for his appearance at the ensuing Sessions. MARLBOROUG H-STREET. Mr. Coates, a respectable surgeon, residing at Thistle Grove, Little Chelsea, was brought from St. George's watch-house, chested as a suspicious character, by a watchman, who said, he saw him walk up and down three or four times in Piccadilly. Of this unwarrantable interference with his liberty, Mr. Coates gave the following account : He said, that having been in town upon business, he was on his return home to Thistle Grove, and stopped near he White Horse Cellar, about ten o'clock the night before, in order to proceed by one of the Fulham stages, which usually takes him home. It happened, that at the moment when he came up, there was no Fulham stage arrived, and waiting a few minutes, he walked up and down upon the foot-pavement, until one should come up; when suddenly the complaining watchmen crossed over from the other side of the street, and without further ceremony, seized him by the collar, and dragged him off to the watch-house. Mr. Coates told him who he was, and what his ob ject was in waiting there ; but all to no purpose, and he was locked up in th• watch-house for several hours, until he procured bail. Frost, the .night-constable, said, that when Mr. Coates was first brought into the watch-house, the watchman did not know what charge to make against him; but at last said, that he would charge him as a disorderly and suspicious character ; in which charge he persisted. A Gentleman of the name of Knight, a stranger to Mr. Coates, said, that he was present accidentaily the night before, and witnessed the treatment Mr. Coates had received from the watch man, who seized him in a most violent manner by the collar, ands dragged him off to the watch-house without the slightest cause.— He, Mt. Knight, followed the party to the watch-house to observe the conduct of the watchmen, and as they got near the watch-house door, he beard the two who had 'Mr. Coates in custody, say that the matter might be easily settled for half.a.crown a piece. William Brignell, the watchman who seized upon Mr. C. being asked by the Magistrate to account for such shameful conduct? said, that he did think that Mr. Coates was a suspicious character, hav ing urn him walk up and down several times in the street; but as for the assertion of dlr. Knight, that be or his colleague had asked for any money, it was totally untrue. Mr. Knight declared again, that be distinctly heard the observa tion made by the two watchmen—that for half-a-crown each, ,Mr. Coates might go at liberty. Mr. Comm. said, tharthe conduct of this watchman was most scandalous, and would not be passed over lightly ; for the present he should be suspended until the next sitting of the Watch Com. mittee of the pat ish, when the case should but fully laid before them, and, no doubt, this man would be dealt with as he deserved ;—and Mr.Costes's address was taken down,with a view to his attendance before the Committee. It will be recollected that some time ago a man named James Haley, who kept a fruiterer's shop in Argyll-street, near this dice, was eharged wi:b having set lire to the house,the upper part of which was occupied by Mr. Dundee, a wine -merchant, and his family,who narrowly escaped with their lives. Haley was committed upon the charge, and tried at the Old Bailey, hut acquitted. On that occasion, Mr. Dundee. Mr. Smith, a builder. residing in Rupert -street, Haymarket, and Mr. Thompson, also a builder,were among the witnesses for the prosecution. It seems that ever since the trial, Haley has threatened each of these individuals to visit them with his revenge, and on Monday evening the family of Mr. Smith were alarmed by a Noise like the report of a pistol, and shortly after several stones and brickbats were thrown at the parlour win dow. The servant opened the street door, and saw the prisoner, who endeavoured to conceal himself in the passage of a public-house opposite. Mr. Thompson and Mr. Dundee complained of repeated insults from Haley, who was locked up in default of bail. An accident, of somewhat an extraordinary descrip ' tion, occurred in Mr. CoNYEit's hoot, on Saturday last. The horse on which Lrnd NIAYNARD was riding, in crossing a blown-land ditch, slipped in with his hind legs, and dislocated his back so rnvch as to render him incapable of carrying his Lordship a step further. Yesterday rooming, part of the scaffolding used in the erection of the New Post Office, gave way, and several of the labourers were precipitated to the ground. One of them was so severely hurt, that he was cnnve)ec.l' immediately to St. Bartholomew's Hospital, where I e now lies without hopes of recovery.

THETFORD, MARCH 21. THE KING, ON THE PRO3ECUTION P CHAMBERLIN V. AJAX- WELL, CLERK. Mr. RrstmoN said, this was an indictment agai-st the defendant, a Clergyman, and Rector r,f the parish of Thorpe, in this County, for violently kro:king dc wit the prosecutor's wife, and committing a gross assault and battery on her person, whilst in the , ct of fo-cihly taking away his tithes. The Learned Counsel then stated the facts as afterwards proved in evidence. Mrs.Charlo-te Chamberlin, a very respectable Lady, deposed—She was the wife r f the prosecutor. She re collected the 30th of October last. She was no that day in her field, giving away some carrot tops. It was about ten o'clock in the morning. The defeadant came and broke open Ole gate, and entered the field. He had done so once b..-fore this. His tithing bail ff and a lad were with him. She told Vie dete .dant not to take anything off the premises. lie male no answer, hut told his bailiff to drive on. She was then standing in the gateway. The bailiff said," I will not drive on. for if I dry I shall hurt the Lady." The defendant sa•d to him "Do y :tin duty, Sir ;" the bailiff again 'etu ed;.l:ott said, if Mrs. Chamberlin would get out 01 the way he world. Witness replied, " No, Sir, if you drive on, ou shall drive over me." Immediately on this, Mi. Maxwell took her violently by the arm and drove her .horn the gate out of the field with all his force. Her servant maid came up and pushed Mr. Maxwell from her, and she stood firm again at the gate. They then opposed the entrance of the cart and horse; the defendant again took hold of her and pushed her away. Ile then took hold of the horse to lead him in, and the servant took hold of the reins to hinder him, when he took op a stick and attempted to strike her. The defendant then came up to witness, and taking hold of her hands, violently pushed her down upon the muck heap. Sire told. hint that if he had heard the message she had for him haat . Mr. Chamberlin—that the tithes :would be ready on the Monday—such violence world not have been ne cessary. He then said, " I know your husband has gone out of the way on purpose." The defendant said her gate was locked, which had no right to he so. She replied, " What, Sir, no business to lock up our own property ?" She gave notice to the bailiff on the Tnors day, that Mr. Chamberlin intended to take- an opinion about the tithes, but that if they were his due he should' have them on the Monday. Maria Beauthorp, the servant-maid, said she was that morning in one of the chambers at work. She had locked the gate. Whilst up stairs, she saw the defence dant come and force open the gate, and enter the field where her mistress was standing. The deentlant drove her mistress down from the gate; she saw her fall; he pushed her down a second time. Her mistress said, " This will not do." Witness ran down and drove the defendant off from her mistress; the defendant took her (witness) then ri.und the waist, and threw her from him as far as he -could. She, when recovered, took the defendant by the collar (A Laugh), and pushed hint back. The defendant said he would not hurt her mis tress, and she replied, " that she would take good care that as long as she stood there, he should not do so"-- ( A laugh). She took hold of the reins, and the de fendant took up a piece of wood and made a blow at her, but hit the horse instead of her. The witness here detailed the bailiff's refusing to drive on. Her mistress was much affected by this transaction. She cried, and felt very bad. His Lordship hoped that it was not intended to he proved who. ther the Lady or the defendant was the stronger—(A laugh)s John Spooner also testified to the defendant's conduct. William Possell, the tithe-bailiff, proved that he got notice Mt Thursday that the tithes would be set out on the Monday. lie told the defendant of it. Cross-examined.—The carrots were in small heaps, but their were stacks of 7,000 each. They took away every tenth heap. Ile does not consider that more violence was used than was nece,sary to take away the tithes. He thinks all the carrots were dug up. Mr. STORKS contended that the defendant had a right to go and take away his tithes. For what vitt p(i-e were those stacks made up, and the gate so c4reitilly locked, and the small heaps arranged ? Was this a pit► f . that this retired veteran was so ignorant of farming, and of the tithe laws ? The motive of all this %di quite apparent. Mr. Justice GASELEE said, the only question for their consideration was ' whether an assault, et the natu re t h e y had heard, had been committed on this tespectable Lady by the defendant ? for it they believed her—lad there was nothing to impeach her testimony, an assail's had been committed, one moat unjustifiable in law ; ' still he hoped that some accommodation would take . place before it,went into another Court, and Om the mere paltry consideration of pounds, shilling., arid pence, would not be a barrier to a spirit ot reconcilia- • don,. and an oblivion of the past, as it was at all tones a thing much to be lamented chat the Ism-molly exi.trug between the parishioner, and their Rector. :Imola he • marred; he sincerely hoped that the intervention of good offices and kindness would restore the framer har mony ot the pariah.
