Mr. Reader Wood states that the annual revenue of the colony (independently of the land revenue) is £272,000. He mentions that £90,000 of that sum are paid to provincial govern ments, and he observes that the land fund is pro vincial revenue, and expended in colonisation and public works. But it does not appear to occur to him that the revenue itself might be increased by the imposition of fresh taxation ; that the por tion of that revenue which is so applied as to relieve municipalities from the necessity of imposing local taxes might b applied in whole or in part to the more pressing needs of the colony, and that the porion of that revenue which is devoted to public works and colonisation may, in times of disaster, particularly in time of civil war, which is disaster, be diverted to the paramount object, of averting absolute ruin. No doubt, in steps like these, the colony would be making sacrifices.- But this is exactly what the British Government has a right to expect from them. Those who are expending half a million a year in the defence of the colonists and their property (a very appreciable item among those which fix on the British tax payer the burden of an income tax) are entitled to expect from these colonists that, instead of having recourse to the momentary relief of a loan, exhausted it would seem almost before it was raised, they should by some immediate, general, and lasting sacrifice of the kind which I have indicated, give some pledge of their readiness to take their share, as far as their means will allow, in the defence of their country. And, in connection with this subject, I cannot pass with out remark that passage in the colonial treasurer's financial statement of 23d July, 1861, in which he characterises as "most unfairly charged against the colony" demands properly made against the Colo nial Government by the commissariat, nor the very strong animadversions made in the colonial legis lature on the conduct of the commissariat officer in bringing forward these claims in the simple dis charge of his duty. Little, however, as lam satis fied with the contents of your despatches in these respects, I am earnestly desirous to afford the colony in a time of undoubted trial the utmost assistance which can be given with any justice to this country. I therefore proceed to communicate to you, as ex plicitly as is now possible, the decision of her Ma jesty's Government on the questious which you have raised. lam ready to sanction the important step you have taken in placing the management of the natives under the control of the Assembly. Ido so partly in reliance on your own capacity to perceive, and your desire to do, what is best for those in whose welfare I know you are so much interested. But I do it also because I cannot disguise from myself that the endeavour to keep the management of the natives under the control of the home govern ment has failed. It can only be mischievous to re tain a shadow of responsibility when the beneficial exeroise of power has become impossible. I cannot hold out to you any hopes that a large military force will for any length of time be kept in New Zealand. It is for the colonists themselves to provide such a military police force as will protect their ontsettlers. If it is not worth while to the colony to provide such protection, it would seem to follow that is not worth while to retain these outsettlements. You must therefore expect, though not an immediate, yet a speedy and considerable diminution of the force now employed. I doubt whether, under present mili tary regulations, an officer can be detached from his regiment to serve as commissioner in a native district; but in case this should prove practicable, her Majesty's Government can only assent to such an arrangement on the understanding that the whole pay of the officer shall be defrayed by the colony. I can hold out no prospect that this coun try will consent to bear any part of the expense of the local militia and volunteers. All existing and future liabilities on this score must be paid by the colony. This sum appears to have amounted on the 29th of October last to £193,180. The agreement lately entered into by the colonial government for the contribution of £5 per man to the cost of the troops stationed in the colony must also be fulfilled up to the close of the year 1861. But, in consideration of the present difficulties of the colony, and in com pliance with your advice, her Majesty's government will be prepared, under the following conditions, to reckon as military contribution all sums shown to be expended in a manner approved by you on native government, or other purely native objects, in ex cess of £26,000, which I understand to be the amount now paid from the colonial revenue towards these objects. The conditions subject to which I am able to authorise this concession are the follow ing :—" 1, The amount furnished by the colonial government shall not be less than £26,000, and that furnished by the imperial government shall not ex ceed the amount of military contribution due from the colonial to the imperial government, calculated at the rate of £5 a head for every soldier em ployed. 2. No other imperial funds are to be employed, nor any advances procured from the treasury chest towards paying the expenses of the scheme. 3. An account of these expenses must be furnished to the Controller of the Treasury Ch est, for the information of her Majesty's government and of Parliament, showing the amount a n d appli cation of this imperial contribution. 4. The pre sent arrangement is to last for three years, that is to say from the Ist January, 1862, to the 31st De cember, 1864, when it is to be hop e d th at the colony may be in a position to provide for the wall-being and government of the natives, so far as the insti tutions which you propose t o i ntroduce shall not se lf-supportin g , b y have been means of local taxa tion,result which a you will keep steadily in view, and the importance of whi c h I cannot too earnestly impress upon you. 5 . In giving up for a limited period the claim of this country to a portion of the present military contribution, no pledge is to be i m plied as to the continuance of that contribution las a permanent arrangement, but it is clearly to be understood that the aid to be required from New Zealand for military protection shall remain subject to any general measure which parliament or her Majesty's government may adopt with regard to the maintenance of imperial troops is the colonies. You will not fail, I trust, to recognise in these con cessions the desire of her Majesty's government to co-operate in a spirit of liberality and confidence With yourself and the colony in the im portant and hopeful attempt which you and your ministers are now making to introduce such civilizing institu tions among the native tribes as may, under the blessing of Providence, save both races of her Ma jesty's subjects in New Zealand from the miseries of civil War, and the Imperial and colonial govern ments from the heavy burdens which it entails.—l have, &c., (Signed) NEWCASTLE:.

Receipts. in the undertaking will increase the subscription capital to the amount at least of 8,000, in addition to the new shares subscribed since the last meeting. The permanent survey has been finished as far as Bromyard, and the remaining portion to Ivington, where the line joins the Shrewsbury and Hereford Railway, is in a forward state. The West Midland Company have entered into an agreement for leasing the Leominster and Kington Railway. for a long term of years, so that when the line of railway is completed, there will be a continuous communication under one man agemeLt from Worcezier to Kington.

The West Midland Railway Company have, notwithstanding strenuous oppc sition on the part of this company, obtained powers to use compulsorily the Eastern Valley Railway between Coed- y gric and Newport. The London and North-Western Rail way Companyhave obtained powers to enter into agreements with this company for the working and transmission of traffic. They have also, subject to certain conditions, ob tained power to take a lease of the Tredegar and Aberga yew Railway, the construction of which is nearly com pleffd. The capital account shows that £1,178,955 had been expended to the 30th of June last, leaving a balance of £15,983 against the company. EAST SOMERSET. The directors' report states that the accounts furnished by the Great Western Railway Company of the working of the line previously to the opening to Wells show a balance of £4,561 due to that company, for £3,000 of which the directors of that company have agreed to accept payment in shares - of that company, leaving a balance of £1,561, from which the directors think some deduction will be made. The gross earnings of the line for the four months since the opening to Wells, ending the 30th of June last, amount to £2,118, which, after deducting £6BB for interest on debenture debt and rent charges for tho same period. leaves £1,429 to be divided between the two companies, and, having regard to the short period during which the line has been opened to Wells, the directors con sider this a satisfactory commencement. The proportion of the profits at the rate of 60 per cent. to the Great Western Company is £B5B, and at the rate of 40 per cent. to this company, £572, which would have enabled the directors to declare a dividend at the rate of 3/ per cent, per annum for the four months since the opening to Wells, on the prefer copatty, but for the d e bt d ue t o th e Great Western Comence shares of the p m a n y , Tho directors have determined that the Great Western Company shall retain this sum towards the liquidation of the debt, and therefore no divi dend will be d eclared.

We extract the following prophecies from the various sporting writers of the weekly journals : BEACON—Bell's Life• In summing up remarks which have extended to a greater length than I intended, I may at once say that all my pre dilections are in favour of BUCKSTONE, whom, despite his wavering position in the market, I ex pect to see heralded the winner of the 86th St. Leger, with the Stockwell colt and Hurricane his next attendants. RHYMING RICHARD--BCIPS Life. But prophets, you see, are such resolute thinkers, That the shadows of doubt are dispelled at their beck -A moment too late came the hero in blinkers, And ARGONAUT'S beaten the crack by a neck. ORANGE BLOSSOM, of Bell's Life, concludes his dream as follows : So Mahon regains her lost laurels, the Marquis --by Jove I I declare He shortens his stride—he's compounding—Sam's whale- bone is raised in the air— He's beat, but the roar of the crowd still louder and wilder swells yet, As, clearing the crack, Johnny Armstrong comes on with the Stock Exchange pet. A moment they battle—a moment—all over—the conflict is done, They fly past the chair locked together, but " Perry" and CARISBROOK won. Confound it—all darkness around—no fire—not a sound in the street 1 The time—let me see—four a.m.—and cold as a stone my " poor feet." The deuce take both Baily and Bell, to them I attribute the sin Of keeping-0 dear I how my head aches; bad luck to that last go of gin I PEEPING s Life. And so they near the distance-post, Where Carisbrook is done ; - John Armstrong, too, has shot his bolt; The struggle's now begun. "Lord Glasgow wins 1" now rends the air, And then the Russley Pet; But Dandy Wells, on Argonaut, He ain't quite diddled yet. As thus they race up to the Stand The Stockwell colt comes out, And having settled Buckatone's chance, " The Stockwell colt," they shout. The Marquis then to nothing tires, Though he's done 'em all but one ; But the Cherry Jacket comes at last, And ARGONAUT has won. WIDE AWAKE—Bell's Life. The " Merry" men have kept their crack As firm as any rock ; And should the layers' nerves be weak, I fear they'll have a shock. Tho' Carisbrook on Aintree's plain, By Fairwater was beat, You'll see that on the Leger day He will a lot defeat, Exchequer and the Stockwell colt May help to swell the field, With Hurricane, no end of cash They'll to bookmakers yield. Nov if I've read the Fates aright, To win this glorious race Back CARISBROOK and BUCKSTONE, With " Sir Joseph" for a place, TOUCHSTONE—Era. Common sense compels us to agree with the majority of speculators, and our fiat, in anticipation of the judge, must be as under : THE MARQUIS ARGONAUT 2 BERTHA 3 JOE MTIGGINS' Doa—.Era. Mi tip, guvnor, is ARGONAUT ter win ther grate Donkystir Leger ov 1862, an I think mister Muggins ad better back im to git is Old Kallybar and Krack-take-us munny back. STABLE MOUSE—Era. My fancy lies between these three : CARISBROOK, ARGONAUT, and STOCKWELL COLT. By-the-by, do you think there is anything in tho rumour I have heard about the very rankest of outsiders— AMATEUR ? NEMO — Morning Advertiser. My present opinion is that the race lies between the Fyfield Baronet and Lord Glasgow. Auuun—Sporting Life. I shall venture to anticipate the judge by placing the first three in the following order : THE MARQUIS 1 JOHNNY ARMSTRONG CARISBROOK OnsEuvEß—Field. THE MARQUIS is bound to win the St. Leger, as is BUCKSTONE to be second to him. VATICINATOR —Sunday Times. Let me at once and for the last time say that I fully be lieve that the St. Legor of 1862 will be won by BUCKSTONE. Should Mr.`Merry's colt be beaten, it will be by THE MARQUIS, with ARGONAUT close up, third. FLY-EY-IshcarT—lPeekly t imes. Although the favourite has not been successful for this race since West Australian's year (1853), yet I entertain considerable confidence that THE will, on this occasion, break thecharms and anticipate the second award being in favour of JOHNNY ARMSTRONG, with the STOCKWELL COLT close up with the brace.

URED NOSE. Yesterday an inquest was held before Dr. Lan kester, the coroner, at the Lord Wellington Tavern, University-street, Tottenham-court-road, to inquire into the circumstances of a singular death from a fractured nose. The subject of the inquiry was a barrister named Matthew Crawford. Dr. George Bird deposed that he had known the deceased gentleman for many years. He was a barrister, in somewhat reduced circumstances, and 73 years of age. Two years ago he was run over by a cab, and, singular to say, he met with a simi lar accident, which caused his death, on the 3d in stant. O n T ues d ay last the deceased called upon witness, and stated as well as he could that he had been run over by a cab in the street. He was un able to articulate distinctly, an d was ev id ently labouring under an i nc i p i ent attack of lockjaw. Witness sent him immediately to University Col lege H ospital, a n d wen t hi mself to the hospital,and remained with him till his death, which took place at a quarter past 6 o'clo c k th e same even i ng. T he accident from which he suffered was a fracture of the bones of th e nose. That prevented his breath ing by the nose, and the jaw being firmly closed, he breathed with the greatest difficulty from his mouth ; and thi s accounted f or h i s rap i d sinking. There was no doubt that the unfortunate gentleman was run over by a cab. Mrs. A. G u t tr id ge, of 23, V i ctoria•terrace, Port land Town, stated that the deceased had lodged with her for the last 3 years. He was vely t near sighted. lie had recently left her to go i e ll ek °: b il : country, and on his return last Tuesday had re-let his apartments.

IMPERIAL MILITARY EXPEI R T IN N.BW ZEALAND.- The following despatches from her Majesty's Sec retary of State for the Colonies to Governor Sir George Grey are taken from a blue-book dolivered yesterday : Copy of a despatch from the Duke of Newcastle, K.G., to Governor Sir George Grey, K.C.B. Downing-street, April 23, 1862. transmit to you a copy of a letter from the 'War Department, with its enclosures, in which Sir Geo. Lewis expresses an opinion that the entire expenses of the detachment of the 70th Regiment, which, on your application General Cameron had ordered to.prcceed to the province of Otago, in cluding the imperial pay of officers and men, should be provided from colonial funds. _ _ Her Majesty's Government have already had under their consideration the proper principle to be adopted in cases where her Majesty's troops are employed for police purposes, and I will now state for your information and guidance the principle to be adhered to in future. In cases where the troops so employed constitute an addition to the force which would otherwise and in due course have been stationed in the colony, their whole expense, including that of transport and Imperial pay, must be defrayed by the colony ; but when soldiers, being part of the ordinary force allotted to the colony, are merely moved from one part of the colony to another, the local government will only be required to pay such additional ex pense, of whatever kind, as in the opinion of the Imperial Government is caused by such an extra • ordinary use of the military force. In regard, however, to the detachment sent to Otago, I have to acquaint you, that, bearing•in mind the large questions of military expenditure, which will require settlement between the Home Government and the colony under your Govern ment, and being anxious not to raise any unneces sary question, or to press unduly on the resources of the colony, her Majesty's Government are wil ling so far to deviate from the rule which I have just laid down as to allow the arrangement, as re gards payment, made by Gen. Cameron, to stand good retrospectively, upon the distinct understand • ing, however That her Majesty's Government shall be relieved from all additional expense which the reconveyance of the troops from Otago tO head quarters, and other incidental costs, would other wise be imposed upon the Home Treasury by this movement. I must, however, add, that even under the above conditions detachments of troops must not hereafter be sent off on expeditions of this na ture unless a previous breach of the peace has taken place, or is represented by the superintendents or magistrates of the different provinces to be appre hended ; and I must also impress upon you that a police force must be organised by the provinces in which gold fields are situated, and that the local authorities must not look to her Majesty's troops, except in cases of the most pressing emergency, for quelling any disturbances that may take place. —I have, &c., (Signed) NEWCASTLE. Governor Sir George Grey, ii.C.B., &c. Copy of a despatch from the Dake of Newcastle, K.G., to Governor Sir G. Grey, K.C.B. Downing-street, April 26, 1862. Sir,—l have to inform you that I have received a communication from the Secretary of State for War, inclosing copy of a letter which had been addressed to him by Gen. Cameron, in which, ad verting to the employment of the troops in ex tending the road from Auckland to the Waikato River, as reported in your despatch No. 2, of the 7th Jan., he calls attention to the fact that the annual training of the militia force, as prescribed by local ordinance, has been dispensed with, not withstanding the critical position in which the colony has been placed for some time past. I must express my surprise at the want of energy displayed by your Government in not using every effort to maintain the usefulness of a force which might render such valuable assistance ; and I feel that I have a right, with such a fact before me to assume that there are more soldiers in the colony than are required.—l have, &c., (Signed) NEWCASTLE. Governor Sir George Grey, K.C.8., &c. Copy of a despatch from the Duke of Newcastle, K.G., to Governor Sir George Grey, K.C.B. " Downing •street, May 17, 1862. Sir,—Referring to my despatch No. 29, of the 31st of March, in which I expressed my approval of the measures which you had adopted for extend ing to the Wiakato River the road from Auckland, and adverting to the communications which passed between General Cameron and yourself, of which copi: s accompanied your despatch No. 2, of the 7th of January, respecting the source from which the working pay, &c., of the troops employed on this duty was to be paid, I have to inform you that her Majesty's Government cannot undertake to defray any part of the cost incurred on this account, and I request that you will give directions for repaying to the military chest the amount expended on this object. I am glad to find that General Cameron has caused the whole of the charges incurred in connexion with this undertaking to be kept in a separate account.—l have, &c., (Signed) NEWCASTLE.
