The eau-es of this de ficiency un6uannately could not he explained, Irwin flit fire %%Inch had taken place in the Custom Honse.—But though there had Leen this deficiency in the custoup, there had been a cousiderahle in- , crease in•the excise revenue, the produce being greater by one mil lion than last year. All the other branches of the revenue were in ; a flourishing state. In the article of Beer, the produce had been Nearly equal. In Malt there had been a large increase. The re- venue from British and Foreign Spirits was also flourishing. In the article. of Wines, the produce of which for sonic time past had not been very encouraging, there had been an inciease this year of 400,000%; fur the article of Tea there had been au increase. In the Stamp Duties there had also been an increase, and in the fort Mice Duties, though not a very considerable advance. In the As es.ed Taxes there had been an increase of about a million--the pro duce having advanced from five millions and upwards to six millions ! and upwards. Upon the Land Tar, also there had been an increase o f from 1,051,0001. to 1,039.0001. and the Duties on Offices also were in a flourishing state. The Property Tax, that great soon re of revenue, had advanced from twelve millions and upw aids to four teen millions and upwards. The revenue of last yea:, as compared ith the permanent charge, had advanced about one million and an half. The export of manufactures had been greater than ever befote knawn. In adverting to the loan, the Chancellor of the Exchequer stated, that the interest of the debt, contrary to all former piece dents, was not to commence from the day of the payment of the last dividend, but from the moment of the actual subscribing, by which a six mont'is interest would be saved to the wildly. He also observed, that by defining the final conclusion of the Loan until Monday. in consequence of the rise in the Funds since Wed nesday last, a saving of a million and a half would accrue. The rate of interest was 41. 12s. Id. with charges of management, 51. 64. 2. 4 'd. The first dividend, being exempted from the Property Tax, fa: Tiled a respectable bonus to the Contractors. The interest of the Lent would bf provided fbr in the same manner as last Year.

He considered that there , was an understood compact between Parliament and the nation, that this tax should only continue during the war. He thought that to itoluee the peo ple to pay their taxes- eheerfally and with good humour, it would ire for the petbile interest that the compact should be kept, and the tax not to be continued atter the war.
