LONDON, TUESDAY, JULY 1, 1862, While we write the park guns are calling on us to rejoice in a Royal wedding. All who hear them will be ready to do so. The Princess ALICE has earned a place in the nation's affections. In the moments when our SOVEREIGN'S griefs were heaviest, she it was who soothed the sorrows and dying bed of her beloved parent, and with affec tionate self-command fulfilled so tenderly and com pletely fhe duties of a faithful daughter. For such a Princess all England wished a marriage worthy of her ; and we have no reason to doubt that such will prove to be the case. We can have nothing against the young Prince who has been chosen for her, but in her case, as in that of the PRINCESS ROYAL, we can but regret the bad taste which which matches all our Royal Family to aliens. LOUIS NAPOLEON, after being thwarted in his at tempt to obtain a princess from a Royal family, was wise enough to fix his attentions on an in teresting woman, the subject of another Sovereign; better still if our princes and prin cesses were allowed to chose their partners for life among those whom they knew, amidst whom they had been educated and lived, and towards whom they might be naturally led to form unques tionable attachments. We would not insinuate the slightest suspicion that, in this case, we have not a true love match; we only remark that this system of alien marriages can hardly be considered as na turally conducive to such a result. We were pleased to notice, a week or two ago, that a Prussian clergyman of high standing spoke in most enthu- siastic terms, and even affectionate terms, to a public meeting at Exeter Hall, of "not only your but our Princess Royal "—she often attended his church with the Prince, and he could testify that their family was as much a model family in Prussia as that of our QUEEN had been in England. That the same will be said of the family of the Princess ALICE we entertain no doubt; we have all sympa thised with her in the postponement, twice, of her marriage by the solemn intervention of family deaths, and we now all unite in the best wishes which subjects of our beloved QUEEN can have for her daughter's happiness, and admirers of the daughter herself, for a future worthy of her merits. It is satisfactory to know at once that the re sults brought to light by the Revenue Returns for the year and quarter just completed are far more satisfactory than might have been anticipated. Wherever there is observable any particular falling off, the diminution is found to have occurred under a heading in regard to which a diminution of some kind was known beforehand to be simply inevitable. For example, the reduction of the tax upon incomes from 10d. to 9d. prepared us for some such intimated dec"ase, under the head of Income Tax , as t he Revenue Tables chew—namely, a decrease amount ing to no less than £1,874,000: or, the better part of two millions sterling ! The remission of the Paper Duty still tells again, as a matter of pure necessity. "While there are two other equally comprehensible reasons for a diminished revenue that are so obvious that they hardly need F irstly, there is the Cotton I to im be in p e n i sequent particularised. upon th e c i vil war in America. g quota , and Secondly, there is the diminished consumption of consumption such as articles of food, or dinarily contributin g theirt uar , to the revenue—arti cle spirit s — a diminished tea, and conseq uent, i n its turn, from the Cotton Famine and the diming_ tion of work and wages caused by it. Nevertheless, in spiteof allthese preventives of any veryflourishi n g development of our vast national resources, the ultimate results are, under the circumstances, full of encouragement. The total revenue for the year just expired amounts to £69,685,789. And while it is true that total revenue, as compared with the revenue of last year, amounting to £71,863, 04, reveals, as compared with that latter year, a net decrease of no less than £2,177,305—it must in , justice to Mr. GLADSTONE be borne in mind 7HE SUN LONDON, TUESDAY EVENING JUIY 1, 1862. that the sum of £69,685,789, actually poured into the Exchequer for the year 1861-1862, is merely about £500,000 less than the seventy millions and odd calculated upon by that right hon. gentleman. Examining some of the items in detail it is im possible not to be struck by the encouraging aspect of several of th e remarkable records jotted down among the numerals making up these extraordinary tables of our annual revenue and our annual expen diture. Turning to the Post-office returns for instance —there are there recognisable at once, a continued development and a steadily increasing productiveness that, familiar though we have long since become with them, are still sources to the most reflective amongst us, of a perpetually new surprise and an ever fresh and lively admira tion. It must be thus even, at moments, with Sir ROWLAND HILL himself. Still as years roll on, as time advances, the productiveness o f that " lucky penny" first thought of by Sir R O WLAND HILL, grows more and more appreciable. There is visible now in these last Post Office returns, a distinct gain upon the quarter of £25,000. There is a gain upon the year of £135,000. The revenue contributed by that noble institution having risen within a single twelvemonth from £3,400,000 to £3,535,000. Steadily as this increase has gone on from year to year since the inauguration, three and twenty years ago, 0 1 the Penny Postage System, it shows now, after the lapse of all these years of a practical experience of it as a system, no indications whatever of, any thing like a diminution in its powers of perpetual multiplication. The increase under the head of Stamps, moreover, reveals a result in its way just as remarkable, if that be possible, still more re markable. The revenue yielded by Stamps showing an increase within the year last past of £191,775, and an increase within the quarter of £67,000. The amount collected in this way for 1861 being £8,441,170 ; and the amount for 1862, £8,657,945. Such are among the latest evidences of the judiciouness of our financial policy in reversing the reading of an old, old aphorism — demonstrating, the truth that penny wisdom is not always, if but properly applied is never, pound foolishness. Whatever may be laid to the charge of the Bri. tish House of Commons, no one can accuse it of being insensible to shame. For its vote's sake two years ago, and those who knew of it, although ex ceeding sorry to waste £2,000,000 more of public money, it yet consents to it, and by a division of about three to one it gives Lord PALMERSTON— whose political dancing pleases the House exceed ingly—two millions in a vote. With a logic which he knew would be the most conclusive of all,the Premier appealed to the House to stand by the vote which it had solemnly and deliberately given two years ago by a large majority. What could the unfor tunate House do? Should it save appearances or the public purse ? There are, unfortunately, for Parlia ment as for individuals, times when the parse must be sacrificed to appearance—the poor professional man has continually to live as if he had a splendid income; the insolvent tradesman dares not change appearances, it might precipitate bankruptcy, and destroy his only chance of retrieval ; we have even heard of persons who dare not appeal against a heavy income-tax assessment, when they had no income at all, for fear of the appearance it would present. We must not, therefore, be too hard on the 158 who had not courage to vote on the merits of the case last night ; we have most of us done the same thing in principle to save appearances. This time, too, the Government had given way on the worst ' folly involved in the vote of 1860, the Spithead Forts, and therefore it was thought that twopence in the pound income-tax was a reasonable demand to save them from the honour, as Lord GREY thinks it, the humiliation, as they think it, of re pentance. Besides the fortification folly is Lord PALMERSTON'S crotchet—his lordship is just now, and in so many respects deservedly, in high favour with the House—and, if it did cost the country a million or two, would not the country willingly pay so much to please its popular Premier. We think it would, rather than that the Premier should go of office ; but this is not a party ques • tion, and if the House had been content to vote that only the works which it would cost more to abandon than to finish should be completed, and the rest wait till a more convenient season, Lord PALIKERSTON would have kept his place, and the best justice the case admitted of have been done for the country. There is, unfortunately, a long list of forts be sides those at Spithead—twenty-four, if we reckon rightly, connected with the defence of Portsmouth, and seventeen with those of Plymouth ; seven at Pembroke, seven at the Medway and Sheerness, three at Dover, three at Portland, three at Cork, one at Chatham, three at Gravesend—nearly three score and ten forts are yet on paper or begun, to cost some seven millions by estimate when com pleted. Are these really all to be finished ? Are we really committed to what will certainly cost a year's income tax if not two before they are done with. Surely the whole subject ought to be gone through carefully again in committee, or by an im partial as well as competent commission, before we spend another million in this way. If it were only that we know more now than we did in 1860 this alone would be ample reason for delaying the exe cution of such costly, and as they are now gener ally thought, useless works. The advocates of fort expenditure cannot any longer impose on the country the self-complacent fallacy that they alone care for its defence against the possibility but extreme improbability of an in vasion. The country now begins to understand that the question is not between defence and no de fence, but between defence which would prevent an invading prince from getting his fleet out of his own ports, and defences which must remain fixed where no invader would trouble himself to come near them. We shall not again repeat the conclusive argu ments, which almost all but Government officials and their immediate supporters accept, for an iron fleet instead of iron forts, or, at the least, for build ing the iron fleet first, as the more necessary ; but it is well to remind the country of the evidence the Departments and the Services have furnished that they are not to be trusted. For seven years they have had the thing in hand taking their own way, and what is the result ? They have spent the enor mous sum of THIRTY MILLIONS on wooden ships, which they are now forward to tell us are of no use, and that we have still our fleet to build ; and they did this although they knew, or might known, the whole time,what Crimean experience taught France, that wood must give place to iron. We confidently predict the same issue for the PALMERSTON forts. When the income tax has emptied our pock e t s to b u ild th em — we shall be told, an d worithfoutrruythea, years s ha m t oirte,mtuostbeumildptya them for threefleet quite as large as if we had no forts at all! For, this is the deliberate opinion of the witnesses on whom the Government mo st • rehed, that, if we have the forts, we must not provide f e wer ships in conse quence. Can the country---w e ask—trust advisers who have wasted thirty millions, and who confess that when we have spent at least eleven millions on forts, we mast spend just as much on ships as if we had saved the money ? Happily, for all parties, there appears to be an end, at last, to this ridiculous discussion about the Thames Embankment Committee and Mr. COWPER'S Correspondence. The Suppressed Despatch, a Ses sion or two back, we all remember. The thought of it, even now, must bring a qualm, we should imagine, to the conscience of Lord LTVEDEN, some time Mr. VERNON SMITH, of the Board of Control. The hubbub now is, or rather we can say, at length, has been about a lost letter. Heartily, indeed, do we trust that we have heard now the very last of it. Yesterday's explanation, in the House of Com mons, it is reasonably to be hoped, has finished up the subject altogether. Time enough that it did too; for everybody was, at length, getting so utterly confused at what had been said, and done and written by this person, that, and the other that the confusion, every additional moment, appeared to be growing really worse confounded. What with Mr. W. F. HIGGINS, of Chesham-place, and Mr. M. HIGGINS, of Eaton-square the one distinguished as the " tall gentle man," and the other as the gentleman whose father-in-law is an ex- Chancellor : what with Lord ROBERT MONTAGU, and Mr. HORSMAN, and Mr. COWPER, and Colonel KNOX, and Sir WILLIAM JOLLIFFE, and we don't know who else besides—everyone of them feeling somehow perso nally aggrieved in this matter—each of them in turn assuaging their own wounded feelings by indulging in the most sarcastic taunts and recriminations upon somebody else, who was alone to be regarded as having been in the wrong—the public at large was getting rapidly nauseated by the whole affair, and tired to death of the very name of HIGGINS, no matter what were the inches of the one, or the family connections of the other. As it chanced last evening, the House was in the merriest of all possible humours. The mere shak ing of Mr. RORSMAN'S head, when appealed to by Lord ROBERT MONTAGU, was enough to elicit roars of laughter. Later on in the sitting after the rather lengthened discussion of a weighty matter in debate like the momentous problem of our National Fortifications, the hon. and gallant member (Captain JOHNSON) who, at the close of that debate, availed himself of the opportunity to deliver his maiden speech, could scarcely open his lips, or waive his hand, or wink his eyelids, but what the house generally was all but in convulsions of merriment. Read ing Captain JOHNSON'S speech, as it is reported, there is nothing particularly funny about it from first to last. But then, as .t7Escilir:Es exclaimed, in regard to DEMOSTHENES,—" If you had but heard him !" It is the manner of the man, it is what those who are of Captain JOHNSON'S cloth facetiously term " the cut of his gib" that affects the audience, more than the mere words articulated. Evidence of which is nightly afforded at our theatres by the appearance of any favourite low comedian. It is not by any means what is set down for him to say before the footlights that takes so with an audience. Before ever the favourite comedian can open his lips—the look of him, his walk, his very silence, puts pit, boxes, and gallery at once into good humour : the contagion of hilarity spreads through all present, and often the merest inanities tell" like so many sparkling witticisms. Judging from the effect produced by the hon, and gallant member last evening, we should certainly pronounce Capt. JOHNSON to be a decided acquisi tion to the House of Commons. Now that the House can no longer be enlivened by the eccentri cities of Colonel SIBTHORP , now that it can no longer chuckle over the professional brnsqueries of Admiral Sir CHARLES NAPIER, now that members can no longer indulge in the pleasant pastime of laughing in their sleeves at the whims and oddities of speech, once so welcome to both sides of the House, from the lips of the late Mr. DRUMMOND, we would earnestly impress upon Captain JOHNSON the ne cessity of his not subsiding now into the ranks of the silent occupants of the back benches. We can't afford to lose him. And assuredly the hon. and gallant member ought to be perfectly well satisfied with his reception yesterday. The heartiness of the good humour marking that reception we cannot at the same time but attribute in some measure to the gay spirits into which the House last evening had been roused at the very commencement of its sitting by the laughter-moving influence of the HIGGINS imbroglio. Lord PALMERSTON just hit off the folly of further discussion upon that absurdity when he remarked with humorous gravity—" There is nothing in the world more likely to lead to no result than a discussion about what I said, and you said, and they said—because it is certain that no two people will agree as to what was said by either party." Really, when we come to lock back upon this preposterous equivoque between the two Mr. HIGGINSES, when this has been said all has been said. It is for all the world like the garulous repetition of some vapid and valueless conversation by some exceedingly commonplace ungrammatical mediocrity, with - his perpetual inter larding of says he, and says I, and says they. One after another—Mr. M. HIGGINS, and Mr. W. F. HIGGINS, and Lord R. MONTAGU, and Mr. E. HORSMAN, and Mr. W. COWPER, and Colonel W. KNOX, and Sir W. JOLLIFFE—they have all had their say : all the particulars are out— and so there is at last an end of it. An end that is of this meaningless squabble about the baulked communications (aside) between Mr. W. COWPER and Mr. M, HIGGINS. Not an end, we trust and believe, however, of the affair, out of which those intercepted communications, spoken and written, arose —concerning the renewal of the lease of Montagu House to the Duke of BUCCLEUCH, and the undoubted and indisputable subserviency of the Thames Embankment Com mittee to that same Duke's wishes. Parliament will not rise, we hope, this session before that miserable transaction has been revised. The very questionable modification of the bill, and the still more ques tionable renewal of the lease, must be thoroughly gone into before the Lords and Commons aro pro rogued. Why should not Hungary receive from Eng land now, when she needs it so much, the moral support of the English Government ? Why should Italy enjoy it, but not Hungary ? Italy's great patriot makes common cause with Hungary, and shows an interest in her liberties only second to that which he feels in those of his fatherland, if Italy be still the fatherland of GARIBALDI. Our attention is invited to the claims of Hungary just now by a very sensible letter of ,4 A Hungarian," addressed to a contemporary, in which he shows the best reasons for not uniting in one Imperial Diet, or Reichsrath, with the deputies from other parts of the Austrian dominions. So bold has been the financial conduct of the Beichsrath that per sons, not unfriendly to Hungar ian independence, have thought Hungary mig ht really have a gcod chance in the Reichsrath a fter all it she made up her mind to send deputies to it. The " Hun garian" replies, that the nation cannot be brought to surrender its independence. That its Constitution, even if it granted less liberty than than that of the new Austrian one, has, like that of England, been the fruit of a long growth, and is' adapted to the nation by its long continuance. That all relating to money and credit and the military establishment are essential to the independent existence of a nation, and the control of them cannot be surrendered by Hungary. And, again, supposing the Hungarian deputies, with those of Bohemia and Poland, to be powerful in the Lower House, the Upper one consists of Imperial nominees, archdukes, 8.7 c., created at pleasure, who could swamp ail the proceedings of the Lower House. Add to this that the Imperial will could always un make to-morrow a Constitution which it made yes. terday, and the good reasons which the Hungarians have for mistrusting despots and Germans, foreigners to them—and it will be plain that the Hungarians cannot consent to part with the gold of an old free Constitution for the worthless paper of a new one. Now it is not fair that our Foreign-office should not represent England on Hungary as well as it did on Italy. In regard to the latter the country had once to compel Lord RUSSELL to do his duty— oaght we not to demand it of him in regard to Hungary. Neither the legal nor the moral right of Hungary to her independence can be doubted. Our Government only professes wine old-fashioned creed about the integrity of the Austrian empire; but even they cannot deny that its old integrity was always, legally, one which acknowledged the independence of Hungary. Let them act on this plain fact, and advise at Vienna accordingly. ALLEGED MARRIAGE OF THE PRINCE OF WALES. The following absurd story appears in the Ame rican Waver ley Magazine:— " The Prince of Wales, who has been alluded to, but not as a lost sheep, though he will be lost to the view of that portion of the public who will attend to the ceremony at the World's Fair, the cause of his absence from which does not spring from the Prince's desire of seeing foreign countries—it is no 'rom his approaching marriage with a Danish Prin. cess, nor does it arise from his love passages at Windsor; but the reasons for his absence are now sufficiently manifest. The Prince of Wales is al ready married; the ingenious eldest son of her Majesty is, at the present moment, and, indeed, for the last six months has been, married to a fair sub ject. The enthraller of the Prince's heart and re- cipient of his truth is a beautiful Hibernian lady whom he met and fell in love with during the pe riod of military training at the Curragh of Kildare in Ireland, where his Royal Highness had appro priated to him, a little removed from the main lines of tents which formed the encampment, a neat hut, with a pretty little garden attached to it. Though he had everything to make him comfortable there, during the idle day and evenings, he sometimes can tered off to see some of the leading gentry of Kil dare, whose domains fringe the great plain on which the Prince was stationed. To one of those houses in particular, and which was inhabited by a family of ancient and almost historic standing, his horse's head was oftenest turned ; and his visits became so frequent that they ceased to be formal. Nothing was suspected by the Prince's men tors until one afternoon two young ladies galloped over the green sward, pulling up in front of the Prince's hut, and the alacrity with which he came out to meet them, and his particular manner to the younger one, attracted the attention of an officer of high rank, who happened at the moment to be call ing on the Prince, and who, being a veteran in love as well as in war, fancied he saw something more than the mere politeness of a young prince to a young lady. The visits were repeated, and they were also seen riding about the country. However, to cut the story short, in a certain little church, not many miles from Newbridge (the next town to the Curragh), there were, one fine morning, united in in matrimony two young people; one of them was the lady in question, and the other the heir appa rent to the throne of Ureat Britain, the only other parties being, besides the clergyman, a brother officer of the Prince and the bride's brother,. The late lamented Prince Consort was made aware of the fact just before quitting Ireland, when they visited the Lakes of Killarney in the autumn. By the Royal Marriage Aet, I need hardly say, such a union would be unlawful ; but so wrapt up in his beautiful Irish bride is the Prince that this journey of his to the East, which was determined upon before the Prince Consort's death, was suggested by the latter as a means of weaning him from his foolish attachment, upon the principle of out of sight out of mind.' But nothing will do; the Prince's heart, untramelled, fondly turns towards a certain old mansion on the confines of the Cur ragb, and which holds what to him is dearer than the British Crown! The fair object of his thoughts almost daily receives a letter under her youthful and Royal lover's hand. It is stated that her Majesty has signified her intention to confer the Military Grand Cross of her O s rder of the Bath on h is Highness the Viceroy of Egypt, aan important services rendered by him ac k now l e dgment of the imp to this country. s p ec ial display of the CRYSTAL PALACE. --A great fountains and waterfalls will be given at four o'clock to-morrow (Wednesday). DEATH OF SIR R. G. THROCKMORTON.—We have to announce the death of Sir Robert George Throck morton, which took place on the 28th of June at Hereford street, Park-lane, in his 62d year. The deceased baronet was the son Mr. William Throckmorton (brother to the seventh baronet), by the only daughter of Mr. T. Giffard, of Chillington, and was born in Queen-street, Mayfair, in 1800. He marrried, in 1829, the only daughter of Sir John Acton, and succeeded to his uncle in 1840. From 1831 to 1835 he represented Berkshire in 1 arliament, and in 1813 was elected sheriff of that county. The family is descended from Sir John Throckmorton, who was -Under-Treasurer of the Exchequer in the time of Henry IV. GENERAL BUTLER ON HIS DEFENCE.—The New Orleans Delta publishes a letter of General Butler, refer ring to his previous order respecting the women t city :—" Head - qua rters Department of the Gulf, New ofhe Or leans, May 16.—Sir, —There can be, there has been, no room for misunderstanding General Order No. 28. No lady will take any notice of a strange gentleman, and a fortiori of a stranger, simply in such form as to attract attention. Common women do. Therefore, whatever woman, lady or mistress, gentle or simple, who, by ges ture, look, or word, insults, shows contempt for, thus at tracting to herself the notice of my officers and soldiers, will be deemed to act as becomes her vocation as a common woman, and will be liable to be treated accordingly. This was most fully explained to you at my office. I shall not, as I have not, abated a single word of that order ; it was well considered ; if obeyed, will protect the true and modest women from all possible insult. The others will take care of themselves. You can publish your letter, if you publish this note and your apology.—Respectfully, BENJ. F. BUT LER, Major-General." CAPTURE OF THE I'ATRAS.—HuII, June 28. The following details of the capture of the steamer Patras, b e l ong i n g to Z. C. P earson and Co., of this port, are from on e of the crew , and may be relied upon as thoroughly trus t w orthy: — Th e Patras left Havannah on the 2 Ist of May, and, falling in with a gale of wind on the 26th, the captain found himself obliged to run in for the land, for the safety of the vessel. At 345 on the raorningofthe2fi7rtihnga vesse l was sighte d, which imm ediately commenced i n to the Pat ras. She put n ' , boats o ut , and showed no sig nals. The Patras, which was at anchor, got under way and proceeded northward. The vessel which had fired into her did not, however, attempt to follow. At 445 a sail was sighted ahead, which proved to be the Benville-inan e o f-war, and which, when staci tl The Patras then hove-to, tmd was ny n ea e r a d r e d dozen armed men, who put out in a cbfirbeyd a a bo s u b t ot a . asked utter.

All hands had to live' between decks among the seamen, and the rations were dealt out to them the same as the crew of the vessel. Shortly afterwards they were transferred to the Vermont line-of-battle ship, where they remained till the Ist of June. The rations here d e alt out to th em were poor, a nd no sleeping ac c o mmodation w a s provided. The were put y ßeeville, and on the 2d left Port Royal for Philadelphia, reaching the evening of the 6th . On the Bth the y quitted the on en vine, and took the train for New York, where they arrived on the following morning. On the 10th 11 of the crew embarked on board the Europa for England, and reached Liverpool on Sunday last. , LAT FRANCE AND MEXICO. PARIS Jury 1. 1 The report of General Lorene ez, dated Orizaba May 22, has been published. It gives the details of the attack on Guadaloupe by the French on the sth May. It states that the fire of the enemy's artillery was very brisk and well directed. General Lorencez was deceived as to the importance of the fortifica- I tions of Guadaloupe, which were represented to him as unimportant works. Th© vigour and courage of the French troops were admirable. They were, however, obliged to retreat. General Lorencez says— " Our losses were 15 officers killed and 20 wounded, L 62 rank and file killed and 285 wounded. In ormation received gives th e loss of the enemy at ,000 men. I waited on the plateau of Amozoc until the 11th of May for the Mexican allies, whom I an n3unced had the intention of joining us, but with out effect ; for, on the morning of May 5 General Zuologa made an arrangement with Juarez, en gaging himself to hold the army of Marquez in check while we were before Puebla. "This dissipated our illusions. Our retreat was effected without interruption from the enemy. General Lorencez confirms the accounts published by the French journals of the "glorious affair" of the 18th of May, in which the enemy, he states, lost a flag, 1,200 prisoners, 150 killed, and 250 wounded. The health of the French troops is good, and they are in excellent spirits. PALERMO, JUNE 30. The Royal Princes have left for Trapani.
