The half-yearly meeting of this company was held yesterday at the London Tavern, for the purpose of receiving the usual report for the past half-year, and for the election of directors in the place of those retiring in conformity with the terms of the act of Parliament. Our readers are of course familiar with the dis sensions that at present exist in the company, and it was anticipated that the proceedings would not be of the most favourable description. Shortly after the business was opened the struggle com menced between the supporters of Mr. Love, one of the retiring directors and chairman of the com pany, and Mr. Waddington, who is a candidate for one of the vacant seats. After a long personal discussion, in which the claims of Mr. Love and Mr. Godson, the retiring directors, and of Mr. Waddington and Mr. Gamble, the new candidates, were very freely discussed, the meeting agreed to the adoption of the report, which of course carried the dividend. The election of directors, the most exciting part of a very excited meeting, was then proceeded with. For Mr. Love nearly every hand appeared to be held up, and he was declared by the Secretary, who put the motion, to be elected unanimously. Against Mr. Godson there were eight or ten hands held up. The meeting very emphatically declared against Mr. Waddington and Mr. Camp bell, neither of whom demanded a poll, notwith standing the immense exertions they had made to secure their return. The Times has been suppressed throughout the Austrian Empire. The copies which arrived by post have been seized, and it is proclaimed that the erring journal will no longer be suffered to seduce Austrian subjects from their allegiance. A definitive prospectus has been issued of the Great Northern Palace Company, with a capital of £600,000, of which £lOO,OOO will be in EEO shares, and the remainder in debentures. The p romoters point out that the population of the north side of London is more than 1,500,000 • that the buildin g will be directly accessible from a station of the Great Northern line, without the fatigue of a long ascent ; and that the estate, which con sists of about 450 acres, will admit of 300 acres being let on lease or sold for the erection of villas.

MANNERS, after introducing the deputa tion, proceeded to read the statement, which depre cated the abolition of church rates as being only a first step to the separation of Church and State, and hoped that the Government would re-consider their determination not to introluce a measure for the settlement of the question this session. Mr. PACKH, M.P., desired to impress on his lord ship the fact that many country churches were solely dependent on church rates for their main tenance, and would fall to decay if deprived of that aid. par i P It li ;0 (Ceylon Guaranteed e_p.e: Kr Ili:astern Bengal.gu.sp.c. ooklEast Indian, gu. 5 p. c :0 Do.

He need not tell those assembled that it was one of great difficulty, owing to the state of parties, and the diversity of opinions. He assured them that he would consult his colleagues, in fact, it had already engaged their attention. He felt the force of the remarks made by Mr. Packe, and fully admitted that in keeping churches in repair, as in. other things, " a stitch in time saved nine." It was, he admitted, most desirable that churches should be kept in constant repair by a small outlay when required, instead of being allowed to become dilapidated, and thus necessitate a large outlay in the course of years. He was quite aware of the desirability of arriving at a satisfac tory solution of the question, but the deputation of course would not expect him to express any opinion beyond that, and to assure them that the whole question should continue to receive the anxious consider e ation of her Majesty's Government. Lord JOHN MANNERS then thanked his lordship for the very courteous manner in which he had received the deputation, and expressed the satisfac tion of those assembled with his lordship's reply. The deputation then withdrew. THIS DAYS MARKETS. THE SUN, LONDON, FiIIDAV EVENING, FEBRUARY 24. 1860. We learn by electric telegraph that, the Channel fleet, consisting of the Royal Albert, Edgar, Done gal, Algiers, Trafalgar, Queer', Mersey, Melpomene, and Diadem, left Portland at noon yesterday, under sail, for Lisbon. The screw steamship Brunswick, 80, Captain E. Ommanney, got up steam in Plymouth Sound on Tuesday, and proceeded to Devonport Dockyard to be dismantled. Her sails were unbent, top gallant masts struck, and running gear unrove the same day. The screw steamship Sanspartil, 70, Cipt. Wil mot, C. 8., not up steam in Hamoaze on Wednesday, and, proceeding round the Breakwater, anchored in the Sound. On passing the Impregnable, she saluted the flag of Port-Admiral Sir Barrington Reynolds. Admiral-Superintendent Sir Thomas Palley, Admiral Kinicome, and other officers, The crew of the screw steamship Centurion, 80, Capt. Rodgers, CM., at Plymouth, were paid wages on Tuesda:c-. The gunboats Lark and Shamrock were put out of No. 2 dock, at Key ham steamyard on Wednes day, and the surveying steamer Porcupine, 3, and the gunboat Redwing were taken in. The Ariadne, screw 26-gun frigate, Capt. E. W. Vansittart, got under weigh yesterday at Spit head, and proceeded to the trial ground in Stokes Bay, in charge of Capt. George F. Gordon, commanding the steam reserve at• Portsmouth, to test her speed with her altered propeller, at, the measured mile, under the supervision of Mr. J. Dinnen, Admiralty Inspector of Machinery Afloat, and Inspectors Mu - rdoeh and Miller, of her Majesty's dockyard. Six runs were made at the measured mile, and gave a mean speed in knots per hour of 13.078, the maximum being 15.254, the greatest speed at tained in a single run at the measured mile by any of her Majesty's ships, with the exception of the Royal yacht. Mean revolutions of engines, 614 ; pressure of steam in guage, 21 horses ; vacuum, 254 ; temperature in engine-room, 64 ; on deck, 48 ; force of wind at the commencement of trial, 2, in creasing to 2i-as trial proceeded ; direction, E.S.E.; diameter of screw, 20 feet ; pitch, 25 feet. De scription of screw.—Maudslay's application of the common screw with the blades attached to the boss on their principle of adjusting the pitch at a range of from 25 to 30 feet, the sides of the blades being nearly parallel, and on this trial with the leading corner of each blade cut off, in order to . arrive at a comparative result with the trial of January 12, when the screw was tested in its ori ginal form. On that occasion the trial gave the ship a speed in knots of nearly 124—nearly a knot less than on the present occasion. The vibration of the ship during tite present trial was very trifling, less than has been yet experienced in any ship of the same power, and the trial as a whole may be considered most satisfactory. The machinery worked admirably throughout. The Ariadne is one of the " monster ' class of frigates, as they have been termed, and is, as we before stated, one-twelfth less tonnage than the Mersey, and one-fifth less power of engines. Her armament is of the same description, carrying 24 l 0 inch guns of 84 cwt. each on her main deck, and two solid shot 95 cwt. 8 inch pivot guns on her upper deck, with plenty of room on the latter for eight of Armstrong's heaviest guns in addition. On her main deck, from the under put of her upper deck beams to the deck, she measures 6 feet 7 inches, and averages 16 feet 6 inches in the clear between the sides of each port, affording. ample room for her men at quarters.- Under fall' power of ,steam she carries 'a much less body of.water under her bows than the Mersey ' does . ; is bolder in her form of bow, 2nd cleaner in her - after . body than that ship, doing' her work with much greater apparent ease. Her tuck is, however, said by many competent judges to be still too full for the free admission of the water to her screw, I but this, with ships carrying in powerful an arma ment as our Merseys and Ariadnes, cannot perhaps , be wholly avoided. The paddlewheel steam storeship Rhadamanthus, H. R. Sturdee master, from Woolwich and Ports- mouth, with supernumeraries and machinery, arrived at Plymouth on Tuesday, and was placed in Keyham basin. When her freight is discharged she will proceed to Pembroke with riggers, sea men, and spars to bring the Howe to Plymouth. The Dee, paddle storeship, Master-Commander Pullen, arrived at Portsmouth yesterday from Woolwich, with boilers and machinery. The Bacchante.sl, screw, has been removed from the steam basin at Portsmouth, and berthed along side the Victorious hulk, in the harbour. She will make her contractor's trial of her machinery, &c., on Monday next. The Bullfinch, screw gunboat, Licut.-Commander James, at Portsmouth, was yesterday engaged on trial of a private screw propeller, at the measured mile in Stokes Bay. The Argus, screw Coastguard vessel, sailed from Portsmouth yesterday, for the westward. Lieut. Algernon C. F. Heritage, lt.N., has been appointed Flag Lieut. to Rear-Admiral the lion. Sir Henry Keppel, K.C.8., Commanderin-Uhlef on the Cape of Good hope station. The following appointments were made yester day at the Admiralty :—John Kellock, master to the Hogue ; and Robert Madge, first-class assistant engineer to the Fisgard, for charge of the machinery of the Griffin. The chartered East India troop ship Theresa, 705 tons, Commander Kennedy, arrived at Grave send yesterday from Calcutta, with about 300 troops on board from the various regiments in India whose terms of service have expired. Between the 15th and 20th instant 95 men have volunteered into the line from the Royal Dublin Militia, quartered in the Citadel, Plymouth, under the command of Lieut.-Col. Musters. i 4d d 1011 102 par ip par P I Ml t 1601 MlO4 20 21 35 36 94 95 73 74 85 87 76 78 75 77 99 99i id Id ;d 12} 121 El 7f 95 1(0 95 1(0 95 110 90 93 (~0 974 98 90 93 I d Id 5 7 5 7 19 20 id par, id 19} 191 id id CORN EXCHANGE. We were again scantily supplied with English wheat, coastwise and by land-carriage, and the general quality of the samples was tolerably good. For most kinds, there was a steady, but by no means active, demand, at the full prices of Monday. The quantify of foreign wheat on offer was moderately extensive. Although the inquiry was chiefly restrictedto . small parcels ; late rates were well supported. Floating cargoes ruled firm. There was a firm inquiry for barley, and high quotations were paid for selected samples. Fine samples of malt were firm in price ; but inferior qualities were a dull inquiry, at barely late rate;. Oats commanded extreme rates, and the sale for all kinds ruled steady. Beans and peas were in short supply, and good request, at full quotations. 'mho flour trado was healthy. In prices, however, no change took place. ARRIVALS TlitB WEEK Wheat. Barley Malt. Oate Flour. 1,120 3,460 650 270 1,060 Irish. — 2,190 Foreign , 2,100 350 sks, 1,340 bls. NEWGATE AND LEADENHALL.

A series of meetings of ship-builders and of gen Omen interested in naval architecture will be held in London next week—on Thursday, Friday, and Saturday, the Ist, 2d, and 3d of Marsh—at the Society of Arts, John-street, Adelphi, for the pur pose of inaugurating the new Institution of Naval Architects. On Thursday and Friday, morning and evening meetings will be held each day, at 11 a.m. and 7 p.m. respectively, and on Saturday, a morning meeting only, at 11 a.m. At the first meeting, on the morning of Thursday, the Right Hon. Sir John Pakington, G.C.8., will preside and deliver an address to the institution. The speech of the right hon. gentleman will be followed by the reading of papers by the Rev. J. Woolley, LL.D., Mr. Scott Russell, and Mr. Grantham. Iu Mr. Grantham's paper, which will treat of the strength of iron ships, the case of the Royal Charter will b. elaborately investigated. At the evening meeting of Thursday the Earl of Hardwicke will preside ; and at subsequent meetings it is expected that the chair will be taken by Mr. Sidney Herbert, Lord Clarence Paget, and Mr. 11. Corry. On these oc casions numerous pi afessional papers will be read by Mr. Joseph Maudslay, Mr. White, of West Cowes, Prof. Airey, Astronomer-Royal, and other distin guished gentlemen. A paper on chain cables, by Mr. Lennox, the manufacturer of all the chain cables used by the Admiralty, is expected to excite much attention. The celebrated wave-line theory of ship building will also be described; and as every paper will be discussed, the meetings will doubtless possess very great interest. We are informed that the at tendance will not be exclusively limited to members and associates of the institution, but that other gentlemen interested in the progress of the royal and mercantile navies will have tickets furnished them by the secretary to the institution, whose• address is 166, Fleet-street, London. OPENIN6 OF THE GROTTO-P.4SSAG_E RAGGED-SCHOOLS AND REFUGE. Yesterday the newly-erected schools in Grotto passage, Marylebone, were opened by the Earl of Shaftesbury, in the presence of a large number of the ladies and gentry of the district. The noble Earl took the chair at three o'clock, and amongst those present were the Rector of Marylebone, the Rev. E. J. P. Eyre, the Hon. D. Kinnaird, M.P., Lord Radstock, Sir John and Lady Anson, Mrs. R. Hanbury, Mr. Joseph Payne, Mr. W. S. Maxwell, &c. The meeting having been opened by prayer, Mr. MAXWELL stated the objects, and entered into a detail as to the progress of the institution. Its effect had been entirely to alter by improvement the character of the neighbourhood. Between 300 and 400 poor boys had been reclaimed from vice, and had become industrious and useful members of society. A new building was indispensable, as the old one was falling about their ears. Although the subscriptions had been liberal, they had been in adequate to defray the entire cost of the new build ing, and the institution itself required support. The Rev. E. J. P. ES RE and Lord RADSTOCK urged that there was no class in the country which deserved such great sympathy from the wealthy as the poor, friendless children who partic d Schools Refuges. The latter were not only . preventives to crime, but of economy to the nation ; for whilst every prisoner cost £4O per year, the country could be saved more than half that amount by aiding these institutions, as a poor boy could be brought up to industry, and by example and teaching, be rescued from vice, at a cost of from £l5 to £2O per ..13 ..19 ..23 ..18 ..30 ..31 ..20 ..21 ..26 ..26 ...17 ...19 ...20 ~..24 ...1G ...22 ...27 ...29 ...20 :..21 ..,25 ...22 - :. - .11 30 annum.

The Marquis of BATH pro.ented a petition from Wilt shire against the abolition of Church-ratos. THE NEW FOREST. The Earl of MALMESBURY said he had given notice privately to the noble earl, who was unavoidably absent that evening, of his intention to ask a question, but the colleagues of the noble earl were per fectly cognisant of the nature of his inquiry. It was not s f a political nature, but was more than anything else to direct attention to what had been g o i n g en f or th last two years in the New Forest. Recently SOITe very fine old tree-, which had for years been the pride of the country had been cut down, entirely swept away and sold. lie should like very much to know the, reason for such proceedings, and he there fore should move for a return of the number of trees that had been cut down in the New Forest for the last two years, and the price for which they had been sold. The Duke of SOMERSET said he did not like, in the absence of his noble colleague to promise the returns, but he would inquire int o tho subject. If s.ny of the old trees had been cut down which had been considered an ornament to the place, he for one would very much regret it. MARRIAGE WITH A DECEASED WIFE'S SISTER. The Earl of BESSBOROUGH presented a petition in favour of legalising marriage with a deceased wife's sister. CONSOLIDATION OF THE STATUTES. The LORD CHANCELLOR moved the second reading of a series of bills to accomplish the above purpose. Thu greatest attention had been devoted to the subject, but he would not ask their lordships to pass the measures, until each of them had been well considered in committee. The bills were as follows :—Offences against the Person, Larceny, &c., Forgery, and Malicious Injuries to Pro perty, Accessories and Abbettors, Coinage Offences, and Criminal Statutes Repeal. The bills were, after a few words from the Earl of WESTItEATH and the Earl of CARNARVON, read a second time. INDICTABLE OFFENCES BILL. The house then went into committee on this bill. ,The clauses were agreed to, and the bill was reported, COURT OF CHANCERY BILL. This bill passed through committee. ENDOWED SCHOOLS BILL. The report of amendments on this bill was brought up, and agreed to. Their lordships adjourned at a quarter to seven o'clock. HOUSE OF COMMONS.—(YESTERDAY.) The SPEAKER took the chair at four o'clock. ELECTION PETITIONS. The committees appointed to try the merits of tho peti• tions against the return of the members for the boroughs of Great Yarmouth and Roscommon were sworn in. PRIVATE BILLS. The following private bills were read a second time : Building Improvement Company, and Dublin Corporation Water. Mr. CHARLES FORSTER moved that the order of the 17th day of February instant, that the Hazlehead and Hepworth Ironworks Railway Bill be committed, be read, and discharged :—That the bill be withdrawn.—Agreed to. THE BUDGET. Several petitions for and against the chief points in the budget were presented, which occupied a considerable por• tion of the early part of the evening. CARLOW ELECTION. The SPEAKER announced the withdrawal of the petition against the sitting member for the borough of Carlow. DOCKYARDS, &c. Mr. JACKSON moved that a humble address be pre sented to her Majesty, praying that she will be graciously pleased to issue a Royal Commission to inquire into the system of control and management of her Majesty's dock yards, the purchase of materials and stores, the cost of building, repairing, altering, fitting and refitting her Ma- jesty's ships.—Ordered. ORANGE-STREET WATERWORKS. Sir J. SHELLEY moved for a return of the money ex pended on the Orange-street Waterworks, from their com mencementin 1844 to the present time; showin,g the total amount, for capital and the total amount of interest thereon during that period ; the annual cost incurred for main r ienance of works • and repair of machinery, &c. ; the annual income received for supplying water ; the several public offices, barracks, and other establish ments, fountains, and reservoirs, supplied from these works; and the sums paid previously as annual water rents, or the annual value of, the water now supplied, estimated accord ing to thi customary water rates charged to such establish-. ments at the present time (in continuation of Parliamen tary paper, No. 143, of session 1851).—Ordered. INCOME TAX. Mr. STANHOPE moved for a return of the net assess ment of property to the income tax under schedule A, mid' of profits of farmers under schedule B, and of trade under schedule D, for England and Scotland separate, in the years 1842,1853, 1857-58 ; denoting also the increase per cent. under each schedule, in Scotian.' and England separately, for the period between 1842 and 1853, and the period between 1853 and 1857-58.—Agreed to. MESSENGERS AT THE CUSTOM HOUSE. Mr. ASTELL asked the Chancellor of the Exchequer whether there was any sufficient cause why the messengers at her Majesty's Custom-house receive a lower salary than the messengers at Somerset-house and other public offices where similar duties are performed ; and whether their case cannot be taken into consideration, with a view to a re-classification of the same by an additional grant for the purpose of £275 per annum. The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER said he I was not aware of any reason for the differences alluded to, but he was acquainted with the fact. that there ere a number of persons competent to discharge I dthe duties required by these officials, who woul 1 iin-. , dertake them for the same remuneration. Ile mild make inquiries at the Inland Revenue Office relative 3 the salaries paid to the messengers at . Somerset-house rd if he found that their duties were not - of a characle that entitled them to a larger salary than the other messengers he would take steps for its being lowered in futurd. (A: laugh ) THE DUTY ON WINES. Mr. B. WOODD asked the Chancellor of the Exchequer whether, in the event of a further reduction in the duty on wines taking place in April, 1861, the drawback will be allow el on Portuguese and French red wines in stock at that date, pursuant to the terms of the Excise orders of July 11, 1843, and July 20, 18i2, and the Excise letter of July 24, 1843 ? The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER said he had not had an opportunity, when he made his financial state ment the other evening, of making so full an explanation with reference to the subject, as ho would have desired. It would not be desirable to make any statement on the pre sent occasion, but he would do, so in committee on the Customs Acts. The Government did not propose that there should be any drawback to the extent of the difference between the present duty and the duty of 3s. With regard to the Excise letter of 1813, it had been spe- cially revoked eight years ago. SILK GOODS IMPORTED INTO FRANCE. Sir J. 'PAXTON asked the Chancellor of the ExcheqUer if it was proposed by the new treaty to give the f'rench Government the power of increasing the existing duties on English silk goods imported into France, from their pre sent rate of 30 per cent. ad valorem? The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER said, with reference to the class of goods in question, as well as other classes of goods, for which there was no provision made ' in the commercial treaty between the two countries although there was no special engagement in reference to such articles of commerce, it was understood that the French Government would not raise the rate of duty OR such arti cles above the rate specified by the hon. member. FOREIGN WINE AND SPIRITS. ' Major KNOX asked the Chancellor of the Exchequer d liwhether, under the proposed change , foreign wines an spirits would be allowed to be land ed in inland towns ; and, if so, whether the duties will then bo collected by the Excise? The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER searindmthenatt it was not the intentio n of her Majesty's, to eilublish a system of inland bonchn i , in every inland town, for it would not be pra cticable to do so. KEEPERS OF EATING HOUSES, & c . Mr. WYLD asked the Chancellor of the Exchequer whether, in the event of the keepers of eating houses and re freshment room.; r eceiving licenses for the sale of wine and beer in retail, any measure introduced for that purpose would render them liable to have soldiers billeted upon them ' a s licensed victuallers now are. The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER said he would prefer laying before the house all the regu l a tions which the Government proposed in reference to licensing hereafter, to be adopted. He would state, however, that it was not the intention of the Government to interfere with the present licensing for the saleof beer with which the interests of the licensed victuallers' trade were complicated. At present, and until the whole question of 1 licensing was entered into, it was intended to confine the license to the sale of wine. SAVOY AND NICE. In reply to Mr. KINOLAICE, Lord J. RUSSELL stated that the papers completing the guarantee treaties, which had Inenmoved for on Thurs day last, required for the purpose of the discussion respect ing Savoy and Nice, would be found hi the 3d volume of the State Papers. PUBLIC INSTITUTIONS. - • • Sir J. TRELAWNY nominated the select committee on Public Institutions :—Sir J. Trelawny, Mr. E. Yorke, Mr. W. Cooper, Mr. Roupell, Mr. J. Tollemache, Mr. Gregsou, Mr. Sclater-Booth, Mr. Kinnaird, Sir Brooke Bridges, Sir It. Peel, Mr. Du Pre, Mr. Hanbury, Lord It. Montagu, Mr. Slaney, and Mr. Cave : power to send for persons, papers, and records—five to be the quorum—Agreed to. CORRUPT PRACTICES PREVENTION ACT (1854). Mr. T. DUNCONIBE moved that the select committee en this act consist of 16 members, and that Mr. Berkeley be added to the committee. Some discussion took place, and when the question was put to the house, the " nee.'" largely preponderated over the " ayes." Mr. BUNCOMBE then withdrew his motion. CUSTOMS ACT—THE ADJOURNED DEBATE. Mr. HUBBARD then rose to move the adjourned de bate on Mr. Du Cane's motion on revenue and expenditure. He thought the commercial policy of this country should always stand in one or two categories—first, that the ehange proposed for adoption should either be plainly obvious as good for onr own interest, or if there was a treaty, that the conces sions we made should find a counterpart and equiva lent in the engagements and concessions of the other con tracting party. Now what were the features of the F i i x: of treaty';? On the part of England he found a ft ° l that r brandy. about one-half on two essential articles —Wine an other "d There was, besides, an entire abolition duties o f_ . sod e event of uarrtl articles of minor importance. H e was not d with those concessions in the abstract, noirs our ke them out o f the surplus revenue of the cbeing ount able to make them out of the surplus revenue of the country, or being a ble to e l ac e the deficiency by the creation of some tax that woulrdPbe as little onerous as the taxes taken off. But he did not think any one could justify those remissions o n the ground of a surplusrevenue,and no one could say that thosesutbbsatnituttbedesem w taxesi.r were hich mo w re e expedient or le ss objectionable were to be relieved. He would first draw th o eattention of he house to the s ubstituted taxes, and then pass on to the consideration of the treaty in reference to the equi valents The concessions on the part of England might no doubt lead to a considerable increase of our trade with France, so far, at least, as silks, wines, and brandies were concerned ; but he found that the equivalent conces sion of France was a virtual prohibition, although the duties would be specific. Those duties, in the first instance, were 30 per cent., with a prospect of a reduction of 5 l for i N c V o h w il:3 l l' v ' i r t a h l o u; , e t g p u r e o s n t r i i o ef i cl i n a g cent., to begin in October, 1864 ; so that we make imme dn,iurateyceoarncse, concessions, concessi ontlie 6r,d fa faith of France, that was a promissory note coming from such a variable people as the 1. , :e ich, that it was not what would ce be called in the city a dse.untaele .When b"' en he said France made no conceeeients he reede a edetake. The llth.. article of the treaty prevides . tha• the tee) contracting- par ties should levy no duty on the ex; ort of coal. It did seem to him supremely ridiculous that France. should undertake to levy no duty on tee expert of c, al, inasouch as she had no coal to export. It was diffeeeet with Eaglaxcl, for she . had coal to export and did export it, and she engaged not only eo . ; to levy a duty upon the ex• ort ofecal, but not to prohibit the export of coal. He took a ',met serietis objec tion to that provision of the treaty. ( item%) lie asked upon what commercial principle the Government had un dertaken to levy no export duty on coal, He . was satisfied that a tax upon exports was one of the most legitimate means cf raising a revenue. There were very few countries that could raise a duty upon exports. The Two Sicilies bad mines of sulphur, and it was good policy in that country to impose an export duty on that article. Russia had immense fertile plains of grain, which she exported, as also bides ani tallow, and it was Only proper that countries so favoured by nature should turn those great resources to their own al ' vantage. (Hear, hear.) The export valise of coal was £6,000,000, and of this France took just 41,250,000. He now came to the article of brandy, and here he would quote an extract of a letter written by Lerd John Russell to Lord Cowley and Mr. Cobden. Lord John Russellsaid —" Adverting to the distinct nature and very reuchhigher market value of French brandy, and more especially to the interests of England, the Government consider 10e. per gallon to be the proper duty. It; nevertheless, you should find that by makin g a oon c ess io n , e ven beyond what I have named, you can obtain from the Government of France sa tisfactory arrangements for an early reduction of duty upon some important commodities, you are authorised to engage for the reduction of the duty on brandy to the same rate as British spirit s b roug ht f rom the colonies-namely, Bs. 2d. per gallon." Now. what we: e those important con crssions that had induce Z the negotiators to consent to a re duction of the duty to Bs. 2d. e (Hear, hear.) Passing the concessions made on either side, it appeared to trim that there was no consideration on one side for what was given on the other. He would endeavour dispassion a t e ly t o look upon this matter. The English concessions ha bad spoken of—the French concessions being 25 per cent, at four years' date; if that were not a prohibitive duty he had much mis taken tie speech of the Chancellor of the Exchequer. The right hon. gentleman told the house of the state of the linen trade as regarded our exports to France, and that the rais ing of the duty in 1842 from 27 to a much higher per cent age had completely extinguished the trade. If that were so he should like to know would this treaty revive it ? If this treaty wore to be considered as a step in enlightened legislation he was very glad of it • he was glad that the most eminent liberal , es of trade, Mr. Cobden, should have had the ho t- ar of indec:r g the French Emperor to substi tute for a p-.ohibit'em terms something less stringent, and which held out the hope of some further advance here after. But when he had said that he had said all he could say in favour of the treaty. He congratulated Mr. Cobden on the progress of his imperial pupil, and he congratulated his imperial pupil f r his quiokness of apprehension; but he could not congratulate the English public on an addi tional twopenny locums tax as the price of the lesson in political economy given by Mr. Cobden to the Emperor of the French. If Mr. Cobden could have prevailed upon his Majesty to cut down a portion of his immense armaments, so that we could do the same—our naval and military force could be brought down to one-third less—we could have saved £10,000,000, and there would be no need for a seven penny or a tenpenny income tax, (Hear, hear.) He would now come to the duties ex proprio rnotis of the Chan cellor of the Exchequer. Many of those reductions were in themselves very execellent, and some of them would contribute to the production of cheap plum-puddings. (A. laugh.) The duty was reduced upon eggs and nutmegs and raisins and currants, &c., to the amount of £380,000. The Government seemed to proceed in this way. Having re duced the duties in favour of France £2,000,000, they took off duties to the extent of £2,000,090 in favour of the English consumers. But when they considered the price paid for the concessions of France the question was a very serious one. He would now come to some of the details of the new im positions. First, as to contract stamps. Was any document which recorded a bare ' sin between two parties, whether issu ing from a broker or between individuals, to be subject to a stamp 1' Did the right hon, gentleman see over how wide a field this new taxation would extend ? Take the case of a mine. The broker had a book in which he entered every sale he made, and then sent to the two parties for Whom he acted a copy of his entry. Was each of theSe copies to be taxed ?—for if so it would not be merely a penny, but a twopenny tax? Ile would next take the case oft MO parties —the one living at Hull, suppose, and'the other in London. The man in Hull wrote to his correspondent in London, saying he would give a certain price for certain goods: The merchant in London wrote to say he would' accept the price. These two letters in law constituted a contract. Were:these letters to be brought under the new tax, or were they to be Subjected to a penalty for net paying the tax ? Take the case of a commercial traveller, who made a sale to a country shopkeeper, and entered a memorandum of the sale. Was there to be a penny stamp taxed to every such entry? Let them suppose a transaction ins Manchester between one merchant and another. Nothing passes —there was merely an entry in a book—was this registry of a bargain to be sub ject to a stamp ? Take the case of a broker 'on ' Chen ge. Men ran hither and thither, made entries on scraps of paper, the effect of which was that thousands; tens of thousands, passed. Were all such transactions to be subject to the new stamp ? Was the house to be called ripen to check this vigour of trado —this life-like operation—by a paltry tax of one penny ? (Hear.) Upon his word, he could scarcely keep his patience to see trade impeded by this miserable penny stamp. (Hear.) He confessed, as a merchant, that - he did not yet knew but he would have to get all his letter. Opel shrived, {for he could not, tell, under the Ite.w law, what might be called a contract. They were taking the dut - .4 elf paper %One direc tion, and hnpostreg a tax in another of a most vexatidus and harassing character, otax which 'would be , productive of annoyance and litigation, and 'S% hid). woutd . involve the risk that, unless the hew were strictly complied evith e endh con tracts would be valueless.. Why, under the proposed' enact ments, merchants of the highest credit might be ruined by the mere accidental omission 'of a penny stamp. , (Hear.) A great characteristic of the, presenenge was its Tespectior the economy of time. Millions had been spent in railways and electric telegraphs. He didnot' core so ninth for the amount of the stamp as the lime that would be lost and thelannoy ance which would be occasioned by the , imposition of it. The next 'proposal was as to dock warrants. He did not know whether the tax was meant to apply to what was known as delivery orders ; if so, it would work in a most oppressive manner. A ship arrived, and a merchant gave a delivery order for the whole cargo. If the proposal upplied to the general warrant only the annoyance would be limited comparatively, but those general warrants were followed by subsidiary warrants as the cargo became subdivided, so that a payment might use required for each and every pack age in a cargo. The house would see from this a multipli cation of warrants; that the sum would multiply in point of tax as the value of the article would diminish—(hear)—and though the 3d. on the general warrant would not be much, 3d. on a small package would be a great deal. Therefore he did not think that this kind of dock warrant invest would do other than operate injuriously to the interests of trade. He next came to the charge of the Custom-house officers for inspecting bonding operations. That would be a most onerous charge, and he wits informed that in many cases it would destroy all profit. Its very introduction was so objectionable that he would seriously recommend to the ' right hon. gentleman the Chancellor of the Exchequer its ' entire 'abandonment. • There was also a tax on re morals. On tea, for instance, a cwt., there would be for the charge of removal 41d., for the looker-on, Is. lie next came to the registration. To this there were most serious objections. It was very desirable they should obtain accurate information as to the exports and imports of the country ; but those were for the public utility, and why should the merchant be teased with them. By the registra tion proposal every individual package would have for re gistration to pay the sum of one penny. Now any such stipulated sum was highly objectionable. Take the case of a basket of grapes, worth 2s. 6d. ; the charge of a penny was to be made on this. The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER—No, no nothing of the kind. Mr. HUBBARD—The question was, were we net too strait-laced in making people pay for that which conduced to the advantage of the country at large ? He now came to the most important consideration in the budget—that of the income tax, which had to fill up the chasm. The addition proposed was no less than 3d. on the original tax proposed by Sir R. Peel, and sd. different from that which would have existed but for the change, although this v as the era which had been looked forward to for the remission of taxes. The right hon. gentleman the Chancellor of the Exchequer ob served the other night upon the patience with which the people had borne the income tax. Why had they so borne it from year to year ? Because the English people believed in the words of statesmen—(hear, hear)—because they believed that every year would be its last ; lull now it was brought forward in its most aggravated form —a most grinding exac tion for another year, without one word of hope. (Hear.) What had been the opinion of every great statesman on this tax ? That it was a thing intolerab a in time of peaee. (Hear.) And because of its temporary nature the y said, " Don't mind looking at its imperfections, eon wolf ! have it long." The income and property tax taxed fairly real property and dividends, and there its fairness et upped, for it taxed laud owners on the money equally laid out in repairs and agency. , It taxed the householders on the necessary provision for want of durability of property; it taxed the annuitant, whether for a term or for life, not upon the revenue, but upon the capital. The right hon. gentleman the Chancellor of the Exchequer had used the lauded interest wrongly , to obtain right. He was sorry the Chancellor of the _Ex chequer had adopted language which contained a most mischievous fallacy., Of the sum which he calle d interest — a nd if the sum paid upon the Long A nnu itiel e er , a t e i t lt e ee r est the Government had not yet paid the The income y had not paid the capital. (Hear, hear.) st but upon sae was not altogether a tax upon intnertse to trade, and capital. The budget was full of impedime was not an equal full of imperfections. The income tax. commercial classes. tax as between man and man of the r and one man would Two men might make £lOO,OOO ! athecaothei, although both pay double the income tax o perfect accuracy, and according would make returns with pe tax which permitted that to to law. Now, was tt ? , I - . make his point clear, be done quite unten abl e house to consider this. One man returned he would ask the iamount of gain, and consequently paid year by year an e ‘ ra e en the other man made a large sum One the same sunl ' and the thi. d year nothing at all, and he year, less the next, a small average, or probably pay no income would pay up on heat-. ) Hear,Was not such a tax a most eli tes at all. ( le e for a country like this? He might observe jecti" labl- dto any system a le g islation that he ()Wee s for the public borne made a party question. One party in office broug ht forward an income tax, and the other party opposed it—(hear, hear)—and that party brought it forward with some improvements, and then the other party attacked it. (Hear, hear.) So great were the imperfections in the present system that it was a great disgrace to the age in which they lived, and he would not believe that a revenue sufficient for the wants of the country might not be raised by a tax which would be less iniquitous than this. (Hear, hear,) The hon.. member for Montrose had stated that this was the best budget since the death of Sir It.. Peel, that all these measures would give an immense impetus to trade, and that the trade with France would be immense. (Hear, hear.) Now, although there could be no doubtthat trade would be increased in wine and brandies and silks;, yet it must be remembered that the great budget of Sir R.. Peel was of &very different character. That right hon. ge ntla man 's great glory was that he emancipated the indust,ry of the people of this countr (hear, hear) —and his fire t and great object was the abolition of the corn laws. Hear, hear.) Some hon. gentlemen said that measure had, made no appreciable reduction in the price of bread ; bill. it had made bread dearer in other countries. It had e tertelised the price of that article all over the world. The pc dice? of Sir R. Peel was to operate upon the large necessariers of life, and on the consumption of raw products of other cots attics by the conversion of them into manufactures. But %mg was not a country which could supply Fumy articles fc a. that it purpose, and would_ not be by increasing the iptioll d ilex of such commodities a s wine and bum y they would zY.) ?nted Jokes the , and d he Mr. sown ,cket.
