CHRONICLE. The state of the revenue is naturally enough a sore subject to men who are about to take office pledged to oppose the only measures by which it is possible to make good the deficiency, without adding to the burdens of the country. They are most acutely sensible that the exist ence of a Tory Government i s s taked upon being able to go on without imposing new taxes. But how to go on without new taxes, and at the same time without breaking up their party,. by adopting the measures of their predecessors, and attacking monopoly—here is the dilemma. Plausible oratory, dexterous trimming between opposing interests and parties c an do much, but it cannot do all. It canot, as Sir R. Peel will shortly find to his cost, put money into the Exchequer ; it can not enable manufacturers, who are shut out of foreign markets, to continue working at a profit; it cannot enable the workmen, who were employed by those manufacturers, to find work else where ; ' it cannot enable the labouring classes generally . to spend in sugar, beer, coffee, tea, and other taxed commodities, the money which is wrung from their earnings to pay the land-. lord's tax ; it cannot prevent the Governments of the Brazils, o f the United States, and of the Prussian League, from making good their threats of using reprisals against us, if we persist in the war of prohibitions and exclusioes; it cannot , in a word, ward off the inevitable loss of the foreign trade, which is at once the most productive source of -revenue and the principal sup port of our commercial and manufacturing greatness, it we persist in the suicidal policy of alienating our best custo mers, encouraging our most formidable rivals, and imposing an enor mous burden on the industry of ti - c country for the benefit of a few bloated monopolists. Sir Robert Peel and the more sagacious 'Furies know this, and they are therefore far from participating in the exultation of the hungry crew of subordinate partisans, to whom the prospect of makin g a successful grasp at the good things of office is all in all. They feel that until nionopolg, with its consequences, is fai rl y con trasted with free trade and the consequences of free trade, the battle can hardly be said to have begun. They feel a lso, that although they have partially succeeded in disguising the real nature of the contest at the present elections, the state of the revenue affords an insurmount a bl e obstacle to their doing so again; and that, unless Providence sends the first Tory Chan cellor of the Exchequer a couple of millions from some source as yet undiscovered, twelve months cannot elapse before they are compelled to break cover, and show themselves w the coun try without evasion or disguise. No wonder , therefore, that the state of the revenue is a sore subject with t he Tories. In the mean time they naturally enough try to put the hest face they can on the matter, by imputing the deficiency to . Whig mismanagement. This is soon disposed of. If it be misma nagement to have relieved the country from the house-tax, the coal-tax, the candle-tax, the soap-tax , the high rates of postage, and other oppressive taxes, to the amount of 8,000,0001. and upwards annually, the Liberal Govern ment must plead guilty, for there is no denying that they have done this. If it be mismanagement to have reduced offi cial salaries, pensions, the cost of collecting the revenue, and other civil expenses, to a million below the a mount pronounced the ne plus ultra of economy by the Duke of Wellington's Administration ; to this also the Liberal Government must plead guilty. If it be mismanagement to have expended money for the purpose of effecting the emancipation of negro slaves in the British dominions, once more the Liberal Government must plead guilty. If it be mismanagement to have reduced the naval and military establishments of the country during a time of profound peace, and when the political horizon became clouded to have raised them again by a judicious and moderate increase, which, although much less than the amount clamoured for by the opposition, has sufficed to maintair. and extend British influence in every quarter of the world, and to obtain results more brilliant-and more solidly advantageous than many a Tory Government has had to show for an expenditure of hundreds of millions—the Liberal Government stands convicted ; that they have done so is notorious to every body. TIMES.—That Sir Robert Peel will have in the new Par liament a majority exceeding sixty, and probably not less than severity, appears to us to be by this time a matter of absolute certainty. But we have no doubt whatever that even if the majority were less, even if it were no greater than forty or thirty, the Conservative leader would still be able to governs the country, and to carry through Parliament those measures which he might esteem necessary for the public welfare, so long as he conducted his Government upon really Conserva tive principles. Upon any other principles we have no wish to see him govern, and it would be idle for him to make the at tempt, even if he were disposed to do so. Entertaining these feelings, it has been with unaffected astonishment that we have seen a respectable evening contemporary, in his na tural anxiety to stimulate the county constituencies to increased exertion, playing into the hands of the enemy by vague expressions of doubt and apprehension, as un founded, in our judgment, as they are unseasonable. We have been told, that if the majority do not exceed thirty, " the farmers may make bonfires of their ploughs," and that the Whig-Radical Ministers will, in that case, soon find their way back again to office by the favour of the Crown. This is sheer nonsense. A majority of sixty can no more secure a Ministry against dismissal by the arbitrary exertion of the pre rogative of the Crown than one of thirty ; and without some such intervention of prerogative, the Whigs could not succeed in recovering office till the majority, whether of 60 or 30, should be converted into an absolute mini rty. We have no fear of either of these contingencies. The Queen, we are sa tisfied, will never make any unbecoming use of her preroga tive; and Sir Robert Peel will not, by res .rting to the vio lent measure (albeit, recommended by our evening contempo rary) of a second dissolui ion within the present year, or any other similar insanity, give the Crown occ. sion for such a change of Ministry as the country might be content to ac quiesce in. Still less (if anything could be less) probable would be a diminution of Sir R. Peel's majority below the number of those who may now be returned as his pledged supporters, in any event except that of a departure, on his part, from Con servative principles. Does any man suppose that the agricul tural Whigs, for instance, however unwilling they may have been to desert their party when in office, will be particularly anxious to bring them back again for the express purpose of repealing the Corn-laws? Nothing can be more obvious than that there must be a considerable moderate party, consisting of men now classified by the Ministerial prints under the general title of Reformers, who may be depended upon as an eventual reinforcement to the ranks of the Conservative Mi- TURKEY. CONSTANTINOPLE, JUNE 21.—Through the energetic re monstrances of Lord Ponsonby, Baron Sturmer, and their colleagues, measures have been just adopted at the Porte, which, if duly carried into effsct, are fraught with the mo t important and beneficial results, not only to the Christian, but to the Jewish and Turkish populations of Syria. These mea sures or concessions have not been obtained without the most zealous and judicious exertions on the part of the allied Pleni potentiaries, who, in urging the adoption of those measures, have manifested their earnest solicitude for the welfare of the Syrian Christians, and for the interest of the Sultan. It is universally known that, from the period of the Syrian provinces heir's: restored to the legitimate rule of the Sultan, the most grievous exactions, the most flagrant irregularities, and the most unauthorised system of oppression has been practised upon all classes of Syrians, but more especially upon the divers sect of Christians inhabiting both mountains and plains. Pachas, Beys, Mouhassells (collectors of revenue), and Desterdars (accountants) have more or less contributed to this reprehensible work. Among the most notorious and pertinacious of this band of oppressors is Negib, Pacha of Damascus. This arbi trary and probably corrupt fanatic has proved deaf to the voice of reason arid supplication. He has been frequently warned and exhorted to employ moderation—to administer the laws impartially, and to see that the taxes and duties were levied in conformity with the reforms emanating from the hatti scheriff of Ghulhane. Imagining himself to be secure by dis tance, and shielded by his influence at the Porte, Negib has disregarded all remonstrances, and carried his tyranny to such lengths, that the people, above all the Christian population, have been wrought up to the utmost pitch of exasperation, and have unhesitatingly declared that the iron rule of Mehemet Ali was a bed of roses when compared with the conch of thorns strewed for them by this merciless satrap and his venial agents. Matters, however, assumed such a dangerous aspect that the foreign ambassadors have peremptorily insisted upon a ces sation of these abuses, and demanded the immedate adoption of such measures as would offer the safest guarantees not only fur the security of the whole body of Christians, but for the resto • ration of tranquillity amongst all classes of the Sultan's Syrian subjects. The exact nature of the measures proposed to and adopted by the Porte have not been made public, the negotiations having only been concluded within the last four days ; but jt appears, firstly, that the Christians of the mountains, governed by Emir Beschir, in lieu of addressing em selves, as heretofore, to the Sultan, through the medium of the Pacha, will be empowered to appoint their own Capou Kiaya (agent or representative) at the Porte. This personage will be the direct intermediary channel of commu nication to and fro, and will have it in his power not only to make known his grievances to the Sultan, but to appeal, in case of extreme need, to the mediation of the allied powers. Secondly, the Patriarch of the Maronite Christians will enjoy the same privilege. He also will appoint his own representa tive, and will be placed in the best position to communicate the demands of his co-religionists, and to obtain investigation and redress. Thirdly, the Christians of all denominations in habiting Jerusalem, Bethlem, and its vicinity, will receive pro testtion. Heretofore they have been exclusively abandoned to the capricious jurisdiction of the Pacha, who has rarely attended to their complaints, unless bribed to so do. In order to prevent misrule, to secure to the Christians an equal distribution of justice, and to the Sultan an immediate know ledge of facts, a ferik (Lieufenant-General) will be appointed to reside at Jerusalem, specially charged with the government of the districts of Djebel Khodos, Djebel Nablouz, and Gaza, and the protection of Christians. It will be his sole duty to attend to their representations, to accord their just demands, to redress their grievances, and to report upon them direct to the Poi te. Thus a ll arbitrar y and vexatious proceedings upon the part of Governors and subordinates, will be checked ; that is, as far as it is possible to bridle arbitrary power in the East. In addition to the foregoing i n dividual measures, an equal system of general legal taxa tion will be rigidly enforced, both as regards Christians, Jews, and Moslems; no local or exclu sive contributions be permitted, nor any sums allowed to be raised, than those authorised by Government warrants, duly and publicly proclaimed , a s necessar y for the exigencies of the State. Another measure, perhaps one of the most necessary under existing circumstances, remained to be proposed. This was the immediate removal a nd recal of Negib Pacha. This step, it is affirmed, was earnestly urged by Lord Ponsonby, and suported by Baron Sturmer, but was objected to by the Grand Vizier. Reprimand was offered, and with it assurances that Negib should be ordered to promise amendment. To reprimand such a man, or to expect him to adhere to promises was a mere illusion. His dismissal has, therefore, been again strenuously urged, and will, no doubt, be accorded. By procuring the adoption and development of this amended system, the British, Austrian, Russian, and Prussian Ambas ssclors are entitled to the utmost praise. Nothing else. per haps, would have saved Syria from falling a prey to the utmost anarchy. The troubles mentioned in a former communication as hav ing taken place in Anatolia have been appeased, and several public officers, whose misconduct had produced these outbreaks have been dismissed. The intelligence from Candia is of a less satisfactorynature.The itisu to Tah rretitionisir Pacha ts still hold will probably butthe reinforcements recentlysent enable hies to take a more decided course. Advices have been recsived that the Austrian Government has abolished the quarantine at Orsova ; the upward passage of the Danube will thus be relieved from its greatest inconve. nience. The Russian steamer Polar Star has just arrived, and brings the unexpected intelligence of Mehemet Ali having accepted the conditions submitted to him in the firmans. This intelli gence has created a profound and most satisfactory sensation at the Porte, and throughout the population. INSURRECTION IN CRETE• PROCLAMATION OF TAIIIR PACHA TO THE CHRISTIAN INHA BITANTS OF CRETE. His Highness the Sultan has been informed that some of the Christians of this island have been deceived by the intrigues of turbulent men, and have also been excited to revolt whilst they were in the midst of the tranquillity and security which they and all others enjoyed under the united and just adminis tration of the present Governor of the island, his Excellency Mustapha Paths, who has been, during the present state of affairs, unceasingly occupied in preserving the repose of the p3or and innocent inhabitants, and has also, by proc'amation, counselled them to return to the path of duty ; they have, how ever, continued deaf to his paternal voice, and have persisted in their rebellion. His Highness, with his accustomed care and attention to the welfare of all his subjects, having desired to calm the exist inc commotion in this island, kas sent me here with the re quisite sea and land forces, that I ma: , attend to the preserva tion and security of those inhabitants w;:! ) may wish to live in I. may put down their homes in peace and tranquillity, and that everything that may trouble their repose. I am also to make in q uiries and learn whether they ha:" an 11 just complaints , an d should the y have any, to redress thein, : order to remove any cause of future discontent. Having by the grace of God arrived in the Port of Suds on the 4-Iti of the present month of May, I have endeavoured in the first in stance to learn the state of the inhabitants and the motives of their present movements ; but neither has any complaint been made to me, nor has any reasonable motive for their conduct reached my ears Fro m a philanthropic duty therefore hasten to publish the present to the Cretan Christians. I am well aware that some persons, friends of disorder, urged on by their own wishes and their own interests, have come hither from Greece, and have, by many false reports, succeeded in attaching to themselves some unthinking Christians not in a position to know their own interests, and have thus formed a revolt against the lawful authority of the Sultan. s blamed Though it be well known that s uch a step is alway and reprehended by all, the said leaders have deceived their proselytes, and have inspired them with the dangerous and vain hope that they will be aided by the great Powers, and have, by these false reports, led them into a most dangerous error. Being, therefore, desirous of removing it, I publicly declare, that according to the orders received by the Consuls from their Ambassadors at Constantinople, the Great Poweis will never give any protection or aid to the rebels, and I find, at the same time, a philanthropic duty in inviting all to the path of safety. I have to inform all the inhabitants that tne Governor of the island, Mustapha Pacha, accompanied by a sufficient num ber of the troops of the Sultan, will march out to visit every part of the island of our Sultan, and will take every measure which may tend to the peace and security of its peaceable in • habitants, and will expel the rebels wherever they may be found. As for you, strangers, who have come to disturb the security of the Christians, and to put them in dar.ger, I inform you that those who may wish to return to their homes may do so within eight days from the present ; but be it known that those who dare to oppose,• with arms, the Sultan's troops, may be assured that they will be proceeded against in a sum mary manner. After having thus warned you, whoever willingly puts him -df into evident danger must take the consequences. On Sunday last two men and a boy were sees to land at the pier-head, Shoreham, from a French lugger, about 10 tens burden. They made the vessel fast to the pier head, and have not since been heard of. The Custom -house officers took possession of the boat, and brought her into the harbour. On examination, no compass or fishing-tackle was on board; and it is supposed the parties had committed some offence in France, and stolen the boat to effect their escape to this country. ATTEMPTED SUICIDE —REMARKABLE Es carE.—On Tuesday afternoon a determined attempt at suicide was committed at Earl's-court, by a young female named Charlotte Jones, servant to a lady named Forster, residing in Rich-terrace, Richmond-road. It appears that her mistress, having detected her in purloining some fruit from the garden, reproved her for her conduct, and threatened, on its repetition to discharge her. Shortly after a noise was heard as of the fall of some heavy body in the front garden, and on running out the woman was discovered lying insensible on the ground, having thrown herself out of one of the upper windows, a hei g ht of from thirty - five to forty feet . She was immediately con veyed into the house. and Mr. Godrich, a surgeon, sent fur, Nut before his arrival sh e had recovered her senses. On ex: ar aining her it was found that, although much shaken, no bones were broken.

DEATH BY DROWNING• —A person named Charles Jones, aged 37, a journeyman tailor, residing in St. John's, lost his life in the Severn, near to the Grand Stand, on Sunday afternoon last, about four o'elock. It appeared from the evidence taken before Air. Hyde, the Coroner, at the inquest held on the body at the Grand Stand, on the following day, that the deceased was intoxicated when he got into the water. He attempted to swim across, but when he was got nearly to the other side he was observed to falter and two watermen, directly they saw his head go under, started in a boat after him, and in about six or seven minutes he was got nut, arid at that time it was evident he was alive, as one of his legs moved afterwards. The usual restoratives were imme diately applied, and in about a quarter of an hour Mr. Budd, surgeon, arrived, but all means p r oyed ineffectual to reanimate the body. Air. Budd gave it as his opinion that the deceased was seized with tit while in the water, a 3.1 that that was the reason he was not able to or proceed W . although a god Verdict—" Found dr o w sed.,' cester Herald. NuBLE CONVERSIGN FROM POPERY.—The Leipsic Gazette states that the Prince . of Lucca has recently been converted to Piotestantisro, a circumstance which has created great sensation at Rome, and throughout Italy. ter, because he has another kind of remedy in his eye, speaks with a sort of exultation of these disturbed relations. True, it is so, he exclaims ; and then he insinuates that there is good hope of such disturbance continuing. " Well!" he says, "but what if the disturbed relations of these countries with us and with each other should not mend? What if they should continue? What if they should even increase ?" Why, is not the answer manifest, that if they do, the Government under which such things hnppen must be either very unfortu nate or very unskilful. Might we not fairly expect from a Nlinister, when admitting this case of disturbed rela tions, some sort of explanation or apology? Lord Morpeth thinks of no such thing. lie only remembers that this statc•of difficulty may offer some sort of apology for the desperate expedients to which his Administration has resorted, and therefore with shamelesss pride he actually magnifies the danger. He exults in the mischief, because it seems to him to afford a kind of excuse for the extravagant experiments upon the agriculture and commerce of the country to which "Ministers have been driven !

ADVERTISER. —lf the Tory journals really feel the fie confidence they profess of Sir Robert Peel immediately suc ceeding to the Premiership on the assembling of Pediment, it might naturally be expected that they would make some sug gestions or surmises as to the ends to which may be shaped the councils of that Right Hon. Baronet. But as the wily chief has been studiously careful to evade any distinct enuncia tion of his intended policy, his echoing organs of the press studiously avoid any more explicit declara tion in this re gard, lest, on many other occasions, they might mistake their cue, and give utterance to opinions different from those which in a short time may be marked out for their advot any. Accordingly, instead of speculating on the measures which may be pi oposed, the Tory press, true to the selfish sen timent which prefers faction to country, indulges in anticipa tive is ;Ls eons with respect to the amount of the majority ne es a.y 40 maintain Sir R. Peel in office, and argues the im propriety of his resigning, so long as a bare majority would affosd him a pretext for retaining the reins of Government, It is not, therefore, the measures to be proposed by either party, to which the Tory press so much addresses its atten tion, as to the capability of its own party keeping in power. Measures affect the country—the possession of office, apart from measures, .affects only the p a rty seeking patronage ; and therefore it is no wonder that the Tory re tainers should discuss that which concerns self rather than that which concerns the State. In this regard the Standard is peculiarly distinguished in calculating the lowest majority with which Sir Robert Peel might remain in office for practical purposes, which it considers must not be less than sixty or seventy, " but," continues our Contemporary, " if the Eng lish counties give away any more seats to Whig-Radicals, the majority will scarcely be more than twenty or thirty. But if the majority be so small as this, the farmers of England may ma :,:e bonfires of their ploughs. The Whig-Radical Ministers will, whether in or out of office, be the real victors, as far as results are concerned. If even compelled to retire for a time from office, they will soon, by the aid of the Court, regain their position with atigmented strength and resources, will dis solve the Parliament once more, and re-kindle the agricultu ral agitation in ten-fold fury. HERALD.—We adverted on Monday last to the " Job's comfort" in which the Whig press were indulging, that " another dissolution would in all probability follow, at no dis tant period, the nearly balanced state of parties in the new Parliament, and that then"—we should, of course, see what we should see ! We never regarded this as anything more than one of those puerile threats by which passionate weakness at tempts to wipe off the disgrace of a present drubbing by idle vaunts of future rever.ge. " I eat, and eke I swear," quoth Pistol. But alas ! for their " nearly-balanced state of parties !" Every day as the Whigs are weighed in the balance, they are found more and more wanting; and to talk of their having weight enough in the new Parliament to turn tke scale in their favour becomes more palpably ridiculous. This is at length confessed but still the Ministerial press will not abandon their absurd suggestion of another dissolution. They cannot get on in the way of reasoning or retort, discus sion or denunciation, without it : and the "nearly-balanced state of parties," as a practical fact, being given up, we are yet to have another general contest, on the metaphysical grounds that, in the present, "the moral preponderance has failed of carrying with it the numerical !" " Nor can any party," con tinues the Chronicle, " complain, should the appeal be thus renewed ;" and, truly, the three reasons given for this strange dictum have sueli an effect upon our, risibility as to put us almost hors de combat for argument. The first is, that no body imagined last summer that they should have this sum mer " to try the momentous question (the repeal of the Corn laws), which has since arisen," and , 6 that we need a regis tration for that specific object." Why, Ministers stick to it, as they say at the Old Bailey, that they all along had this " momentous question" in their eye ; and how came they, then, not to let the country have a glimpse of it before the last registration took place ? Besides, if we are to have a new registration for every ." specific object," it w 11, in deed, be as the Chronicle heads its leading columns, " Regis ter ! Register !" and nothing else but " Register !" We shall be come, Co use a cant adverb of the philosophic free-traders, " essentially " a registering people ! The second reason for consulting the sense of the country over again is, that the Con st rvatives, "averted, by a trick, the fair and complete state- ' anent of the questio n b y a regular Parliamentary discussion," and that " the fraud has vitiated any victory which they can claim." The trick here meant, we sup pose is the " old tri ck" which Lord John found at four o'c!ock One ' fine morning he had lost together with the stake he was playing for—the confidence the House of Comm ons. But , ra tience'be with us and with all men.

It demands this attention, not on ac co u n t of the i mpor t an ce or truth of what his L . of dship said, but f"r the very opposite reason . His Lordship is a Cabinet Minister, and has been looked to, we understand, as the rising hope of the party in the event of anything happening to that wonderful little man Lord John Russell. Consi dering, then, the importance of the occasion, we may conclude that this Minister made out the very best case he could for the company of the State managers to which he belongs, and it is worth while to see how this case stands when examined by the tests of truth and reasonableness. W e h a v e already referred to his Lordship's philosophic a l indifference to the political distinctions between Conservatives and Chartists. Hi s s tatesmanlike vision only discerns the fact that both Conservatives and Chartists are opposed to the existing Administration.

TlMES.—Every additional facility that can be gained for our correspondence with India is of such great importance to the commercial world, that the merchants in the City are con stantly paying attention to every defect in the present system, and anxious to suggest or listen to improvements. The last arrival from India came in time to give them every facility in answering their letters, and, as we have already observed, gave the greatest satisfaction in London ; but at the same time the early departure from Bombay, which caused this convenience, was attended with inconvenience to the merchants in India, who were delayed from writing their answers, just in the same manner as the merchants in London have been de layed on ordinary occasions. In suggestions for im provement, therefore, care must be taken that while one party is accommodated it shall not be at the expense of another. Scrim persons, who are well acquainted with the working of the system, have offered a suggestion which is worthy of atten tion. They estimate that the overland mail may generally be expected by the fith or 7th of every month, and that, there fore, the desired object may be effected by deferring the de parture via Marseilles to that period, without making any alte ration in the time of departure from Bombay. That those who prefer the more economical transmission by the Falmouth route may share in the advantage to be derived from the alte ration, it is proposed that the departure from that port shall take place on the lst of each month, instead of the 31st of the month preceding, so that no unnecessary delay would be created by the stoppage of the vessel at Malta. CHRONICLE.—By official Parliamentary returns it ap pears that the total quantity of foreign and colonial wheat and wheat flour imported from January, 1840, to April, 1841 (both inclusive), amounted to 2,621,366 quarters, of which 2,525,589 quarters were entered for home consumption. The total amount of duty received on the above wheat and wheat flour was 1,009,0251. We beg the monopolists to observe that the amount of duty received on the above quantity of foreign wheat entered for home consumption is equal in round num bers to a fixed duty of 83. per quarter on the whole, precisely the Ministerial measure, which they represent to the farmers as being ruinous to their interests. This fact is admitted by the monopolists, and they now gravely ask whether " it is to be supposed that Sir Robert Peel was really serious in his op position to something equivalent to a fixed duty of Bs. per quarter? " This augurs well, and is too important an indica tion of public opinion not to demand the special attention of the supporters of her Majesty's Government. HERALD.—So much has been said in public speeches, and more stij in writing about the drainage of the precious metals caused by the present Corn-laws and imports of corn paid for in hard cash during times of scarcity, with the peril ous position to which as confidently assumed, the Bank of England has been reduced, or liable to be, in consequence, that it may be worth while to inquire whether there be any sufficient foundation for the argument taken for granted, and the fact charged to the extent, or any thing like the extent alleged. It is generally asserted by those most given to en large in free and easy fluency about exports of gold and Bank embarrassments with entire independence or of reference to all those attendant circumstances by which the question must really be examined and decided, that bullion to the amount of about 7,000,0001. was exported in payment of corn from 1839 to 1840, the effect of which was to bring the Bank to the verge of a stoppage of specie payments. Not one single doubt appears to have crossed the minds of these logicians that other and larger ex?orts of the precious metals, and for far other purposes, were going on simultaneously with these for corn, or had been going on for years previously, but for which, considerable as was the outlay required for bread stuffs, the amount would have been easily supplied, and the export. scarcely felt as an inconvenience. Take for example the foreign loans negotiated wholly, or for the greatest part, in this country, beginning with 1830, and it will be seen at once how small a portion of the drain of gold is in effect chargeable upon corn or Corn-laws. The following statement of foreign loans contracted or mainly issued here does not profess to re• present more than approximative quantities, as of course it would be almost impossible to calculate or procure the informa tion as to the correct and net amount of the loans realised and exported in money or otherwise ; although, whether remitted in hard cash, in bills, in arms and stores, or in other commo dities, can make no difference in the estimate of real values, since if exported in the shape of stores it is dear the valise is the same as if in metals, as but for such arrangement the com modities would still have commanded money in return, and must therefore be counted as hard money exported. It may be remarked also that this list of foreign loans does not include the many millions of capital embarked in foreign enterprises, or borrowed expres,ly for them, such as Maine and Danube and United States railways, canals, &c., nor the millions more similarly sunk in colonial wicultural undertakings, and the foundation of new colonies. Thus loans were raised in. 1830 for Prussia to the amount of 1831 for Holland 500,000 - far Portugal 1832 for id. ... for Russia 1833 for id. for Greece for Portugal 1834 for id. for Spain 1836 for Portugal 1837 for Holland, part of one loan of 169,000,000 of flu ins, say about one-third To which add two-thirds of the State and Corpo ration loans of the different States of the Ameri can Union, contracted in the 10 years from 1830 to 1840, and in the whole amounting to 215,000,000 of dollars, say about 29,000,000 £64,900,000 The prodigious amount set down for the States of the Fe.lorat Union is irrespective of 150,000,000 of dollars subscribed mostly in shares in the banking capital invested there, no in considerable proportion of which was raised or subscribed here. Taking the net proceeds of these loans one with an other at the round sum of 50,000/., metallic money, or va lues equal, was exported from the country at the rate per annum of 5,000,000 1 . , or seven times the amount ex ported within the same period in payment of foreign corn. In fact, however, moderately estimating, the quantities of gold and silver abstracted from circulation and stock here during the same period of ten years, for foreign and colonial banking, railroad and other speculations, with the sums raised for promoting emigration or carried away by emigrants, it is within compass to say that the whole amount of money capital, foreign loans inclusive, thus absorbed, cannot probably have been less than one hundred millions sterling, or at the rate of ten millions per annum. The export of gold for corn in face of such a tremendous and continuous egress of bullion and specie is comparatively unimportant by comparison, and but for following on the heels of or contemporaneo usl y with the larger exports, could neither have deranged the circulation or inconvenienced the Bank or the country. The corn demand came, which is all that can truly be said, at the precise mo ment to exemplify the old saw, that it is the last feather which breaks the horse's back. SUN.—The Funds were higher to-day, and there was a good business doing in them. The rise was full * pa. cent. Consols for present delivery rallied from 891 Ito 89i to and for the Account—the settling day—from 89fr f, to 89i to Exchequer Bills were without alte ration—viz., 13s. to 15s. premium, but India Bonds got up to 4s. and Os. premium. Money was worth 3to 4 per cent. in the Stock Exchange. Bank Stock receded from 170 to 169, and India Stock for account maintaiiled the advance to 249; the New Three-and-a-Half per Cents. were worth 94 to -a, and the Three per Cent. Reduced 89i- to I, being each higher. There was a mere shade of improvement in the Foreign market, but with a restricted business. Active Spanish Stock was 211 for money, and 211 for account. Portuguese New Five per Cents. remained at 301. Mexican Bonds were quoted 261 ; Colombian Bonds, 204 ; Peruvian, 141 ; Belgian Old Stock was at 100:4 ; Danish at 77 1 ; Russian at 1 13 1 ; French T hree p er 1 Cents. at 76 ; and Dutch Five per Cents. at 1001 to 4. For the Railway shares lower prices were again ac cepted, and sales to some extent were effected. Brighton Shares were marked 5 to 51, the Blackwall 91. the Croy don 1 1, the Birmingham and Gloucester 374, and the North Midland 32 discount. London and Birmingham Thirds were 22, Great Western 221 to 2131, the New 10 to 9 , 1, the Fifths si ' and the South Western 16 3 1 ,- to 16 ft premium.

EXMOUTH.—EXTRAORDINARY AND DREAD , FUL SUICIDE.—This town was thrown into great con• sternation on Friday se'nnight by a report that a private in the 9th Lancers, quartered here during the election in Exeter, had destroyed himself in the most deliberate manner by blowing his brains out with a pistol. The report proved unfortunately too true, and the following are the circumstances of the case :—the deceased, whose name was Terence Shields, was billeted with several of his comrades at Bastin's Globe Inn. They slept in rooms at the top of the house. In the morning the de ceased had been out on parade, and bad returned to his sleeping room for the purpose of shifting his parade dress. This was about•ten o'clock. One of Ms comrades was with him for the same purpose, but having changed his dress before the deceased, he left the room, and went to the stables. About five minutes afterwards, the report of fire-arms was heard in the room, and an alarm being given, the unfortunate man was found extended on the - floor 'quite dead, half of his face being blown off. An inquest was held on the body by R. H. Aberdein, Esq., on Saturday last, when evidence was given eliciting the above facts. It appeared that the pistol with which the dreadful deed was committed belonged to the deceased, and so determined bad he been in his purpose, that he had actually loaded it with four rounds of ball cartridge. The balls were found lodged in the ceiling with a portion Of the scalp of his head. The deceased had betrayed no symptoms of insanity, excepting a slight melancholy, previous to his destroying . himself, and one of his com rades deposed that five minutes before his death he was perfectly cool and collected. He was somewhat given to drinking, and had been intoxicated two days pre viously, which circumstance seemed to have preyed on his w i n d. His sergeant gave him a good character, de scribing him as a quiet inoffensive man. He was twenty four and not married. After delib era ting years of a g o, upwards of four hours, the Jury returned a verdict of Febo de se, and the unhappy man was buried privately the same evening, no funeral service being read over his body.—Plyntouth Journal.

Sits,—lt was not my intention to have trespassed upon you relative to the late unfortunate event which has deprived me of my place in the Commission of the Peace for Middlesex and Westminster, convinced as I am that my friends, and those who know me well, have not believed the unjust accusa tions which have been heaped upon me. Reports, how ever, continue to be circulated of such a nature as to prove highly detrimental to my character if not contradicted, and it therefore becomes necessary for me thus publicly to state that they are almost wholly untrue. The facts are, that the representations of the prisoner Bledhurst, and of those to whom he had communicated them, were taken privately (not upon oath) by the Visiting Magistrates, and sent by them to Lord Normanby, without my having had the slightest opportunity of denying or explaining them. - Upon receiving a copy of them, I immediately sent an explanatory statement to his Lordship. After a delay of two months, during which time I understand a strict inquiry was instituted into the matter, Lord Normanby forwarded my statement to the Lord Chancellor, which, together with all the subsequent cor respondence, I now lay before the public, leaving it to judge whether my punishment has not been more severe than my alleged indiscre!ion merited. I have the honour to be, Sir, Your faithful and obedient servant, H. C AIORETON DYER. Devonshire-place House, July 9, 1841. (Copy) Devonshire-place House, March 12, 1841. My Lord,—Having received, by the directions of the Visit ing Justices of the House of Correction, a copy of statements made to them, in reference to the prisoner 111edhurst, and which have been forward to your Lordship, I take this early occasion of submitting to your Lordship the several facts of the ca;c, and claiming the favour of your Lordship's earnest atten tion to them. Within the last five months I was appointed a Visiting Magistrate of the new prison, Clerkenwell, and in that character it has, since such appointment, been my habit of attending at the prison once, at least, every week. On one occasion, and after the business of the meeting, accompanied by a brother Magistrate, and on my road home, I went to the workshop of Fillary, at the House of Correction, to give him directions respecting works he had undertaken for me as an engineer, and whom I had employed occasionally for some years past. I then, for the first time, saw the prisoner Medhurst, with whose case I was previously, through the public prints, acquainted. Understanding from Fillary that Medhurst devoted much of his time to turning (an amusement in which I have for many years past been myself much engaged), I entered into conversation with him upon the subject of turning ; on this occasion he expressed himself so well, and appeared so much depressed by the position in which his guilt had placed him, that I confess I felt interested in no common degree in his favour, and I left the workroom with a feeling of desire to be of service to him, if I could with propriety do so. In the week following I again called upon Fillary, whom I found with Medhurst, occupied in turning. After some few mo ments' conversation on the subject of the work in progress, I mentioned to Medhurst that a club of amateur turners was about being formed, and told him, if he wished, I would speak to some of the intended members in his favour ; and with a view of his joining such club, I did so, and in conse quence two of the proposed members called upon him. A few minutes' conversation on the subject led to his expressing, in very strong terms, his grief and wretchedness at his continued imprisonment, as well as his conviction that its prolongation would affect his mind and put an end to his existence. He after wards asked me whether I thought it possible that a remission of his sentence could be obtained, and entreated me to point out to him or his family the mode of obtaining such an object. He entreated me most earnestly to look into all the circum stances of his case, his early life and habits, and to give him the benefit of any suggestions that might occur to me. I answered him I would do so ; and during the then following week did look up all the evidence and circumstances connected with his case, and upon which I grounded a very strung opi nion. I contrasted his case with that of Bull, about the same time convicted of a like offence, and sentenced to three years' imprisonment, and who, at the end of eighteen months, obtained a remission of his sentence. 1 felt that the impri sonment as a punishment to a young man brought up and educated as a gentleman, must be infinitely more severe than to a person of a lower rank of lire, altogether without educa tion, and who might not have been wholly a stranger to the diet and the discipline, as well as the duties enforced in a prison. I was induced by this train of reasoning to suppose that the prisoner Medhurst might, by a voluntary offering of a large sum of money to a national charity, in addition to the imprisonment from which it appeared he had already so severely suffered, expiate in some measure the offence of which he had been found guilty towards society ; and actuated with these sentiments, I presumed, in my subsequent interview with 111edhurst, to detail them, and added that I thought, if such opinions ivere entitled to aiy weight, that the payment of a large sum of two or three thousand pounds to a national charity might lessen the adverse feeling of the public towards him, and might be deemed a propitiation in his favour, as well as a circumstance calculated to induce an extension of mercy towards him after such an offering had been sponta neously made by the prisoner and his family. lam now sensible of the error into which I have been led, and I sincerely deplore that even a feeling of commiseration should have induced ►ue to interfere with respect to the punishment of the prisoner. But, my Lord, I beg to avail myself of this opportunity of declaring most solemnly that I never did so from any interested motives, or from the hope or expectation that I should, directly or indirectly, derive the slightest profit, benefit, or advantage from such in terference. Let me, also, my Lord, add my declaration, that neither the name of your Lordship or of any other person was wed or referred to once by me as a means by which the desired end was hoped to be obtained, beyond your Lordship's being the official personage to whom any petition for a prisoner's pardon could be addressed. To this extent, alone, repelt, was your Lordship's name ever mentioned; and I crave your Lordship's credence to this any statement. I have the honour to be, my Lord, your Lordship's most obedient humble servant, H. C. ➢t. D, ( Signed) To the Marquiss of Normanby, Whitehall. LETTER FROM MR. HAYNES TO H. C. M. DYER, ESQ. Sir,—l am directed by the Lord Chancellor to inform you that. 11;s Lordship's attention having been drawn by the Secre tary of State for the Home Department to the transactions which have taken place between you and Mr. Medhurst, his Lordship is of opinion that your own statement of these trans actions in your letter of the 11th of March last, show your pro ceedings to have been so improper, that his Lordship has thought it to be his duty to give directions for the removal of your name from the Commission of the Peace for the county of Middlesex and the city of Westminster. I have the honour to be, Sir, Your most obedient humble servant, H. HAYNES, Secretary of Commissions of the Peace. Bruton-street, May 12, 1841. H. C. MORETON DYER, ESQ., TO THE LORD CHANCELLOR. Devonshire-place House, May 17, 1841. My Lord—l have the honour to acknowledge the receipt of your Lordship's communication, through Mr. Haynes, of the 12th inst.:lt is impossible for me to describe to your Lordship the deep pain and mortification with which I learn that the facts which I have communicated in my statement to Lord Normanby are deemed by your Lordship to be of such a na ture as to induce your Lordship to exercise the extreme course of depriving me of that place in the commission of the peace for Middlesex and Westminster, which 1 have now held for 14 years ; and, as I humbly hope, with honour and credit. I have deeply to deplore that I have had no opportunity of making any explanation to your Lordship on this subject, for in that case I cannot but flatter myself I might have given your Lordship a different impression of the matter. As it is, however, I have now only to entreat your Lordship to consider that as my honour, as well as my discretion, has been called in question by the charges made against me to Lord Normanby, it is of the deepest importance to me, as a gentleman and a member of your Lordship's own profession, to have it fully un derstood that, in removing me from the Commission of the Peace, your Lordship has done so entirely upon the ground of indiscretion, and not because your Lordship believes me to be guilty of the base and dishonest intention of deriving any pecu niary or other personal advantage from the transaction. My Lord, my honour (as honour ought to be to every man) is dearer to me than my life, and with this strong feeling, I throw my self upon your Lordship's indulgence in thus craving your Lordship to place me in such a situation in my profession and among my friends as will admit of none of that doubt which, under the circumstances, may naturally arise as to the cause of my removal.—l have the honour, &c. H. C. MORETON DYER. The Right Honourable the Lord Chancellor. FROM THE LORD CHANCELLOR TO H. C. 'MORETON DYER, ESQ. The Lord Chancellor presents his compliments to Mr. Dyer, and begs to inform him that, finding in Mr. Dyer's let ter to Lord Normanby sufficient in the Lord Chancellor's opinion to make it his duty to direct the removal of Mr. Dyer's name from the commissions of the peace under which be had acted, it did not appear to the Lord Chancellor to -be necessary to call upon Mr. Dyer for any further statement; but as Mr. Dyer has now expressed a wish that an opportunity may be affot fed of making some further statement, the Lord Chancellor as sures Mr. Dyer that every attention will be bestowed upon any statement in writing which Mr. Dyer may make to him.

Your Lordship has informed my name to be withdrawn from the Ma gva g eetc.i i rßt s e t me that it has been with reference to my statment tl t you have desired th r e e refore as I have admitted ' • nothing in my statement that can possibly ' be construed into anything but indiscretion, I hope Imay safely assure myself that indiscretion, unconnected with dishonour, is the ground of my dismissal. Believing myself right in this conjecture, all that I ask and solemnly implore of your Lord ship is, a direct assurance from your Lordship that vou have removed me solely upon the grounds of in. i a iscretion, n meddling at all in the matter ; and now, my Lord, let me take this opportunity, surrounded as I am by all that is solemn and awful, once more to declare my perfect innocence of any invention of deriving the remotest personal benefit from Mr. Nledhurst's release. Let me also state that I never con templated that that release should be obtained otherwise than by the most legal means ; and further, let me beg your Lord ship to ask yourself how, without the slightest personal know ledge of Lord Melbourne or Lord Normanby, or any of their families, I could possibly have contemplated the achievement of such release in any other way than by legal means : even the crude plan which I suggested (and that only as a possible one) had nothing illegal in it. With regard to the statements sent to Lord Normanby by the Magistrates, there are many minor points which I can at once, and I am sure satisfactorily, a e t xi plain. Of these I would mention to your . Lordship that but on days never once went to the House of Correc th ti o on t , that o when it was actually my duty to pa go there I never gaes saw Mr n . many of the days . when I do did and that long before the Medhurst, or desired to the sa,vsittng Magistrates, of which in quiry into the facts by ti the had sent i examine- I was perfectly ignor ant un l 1 ' ven the Lord Normanby ha d t' y en ire ygi u r all idea tions to p in Me dhurst's case, inquee of of interfering Mr • risen stating to me his conse opinion nc that the surgeon of the p ld not be permanently idured by fur the prisoner's health wou . f f which in oint of j fact, was the ther confinement, the belie o , i?

H.

My Lord, three lines from your Lordship's pen will insure me from charges of dishonour and other false re ports which are crushing me. Throwing myself upon your Lordship's feelings, I remain your Lordship ' s most faithful servant, H. C. MORETON DYER. P.S. According to the public reports of the Magistrates' meetings, I now clearly stand charged with having been re• moved for bribery. May I beg the return of the enclosed? FROM THE LORD CHANCELLOR TO H. C. 'MORETON DYER, ESQ. The Lord Chancellor presents his compliments to Mr. Dyer, and returns the letter from the Secretary to the London and Westminster Life Assurance Society. The Lord Chancellor much regrets Mr. Dyer's removal from the commission of the peace should have produced effects painful to him beyond what the grounds of such removal would justify. Ih the letter communicating to Mr. Dyer the removal of his name from the commission, the Lord Chancellor stated the true reasons for the proceeding, and does not feel jus tified in entering more fully into the subject. That letter did not express any opinion as to Mr. Dyer's motives, but .rested his removal from the commission upon the admitted iract of his having held such communication with a prisoner under sentence, as Mr. Dyer himself admitted to have taken place. Any inference, therefore, which may have been drawn from the fact of his removal beyond what arises from Mr. Dyer's statement in his own letter, would, in the opinion of the Lord Chancellor, be improperly drawn, and would be the subject of regret to him. I Bruton-street, June 22, 1841. FROM Si. C. MORETON DYER, ESQ., TO JOHN EDMOND, ESQ. Devonshire-place House, June 27, 1841. Sir—Finding that the impressions on the public mind as to the immediate cause of my late removal from the commis sion of the peace for Middlesex and Westminster, and the facts .connected with it, are not only highly erroneous, but very pre judicial to my character, I feel I am , . in justice to myself and my friends, bound to give some explanation of the matter. In so doing the first step which suggests itself to rule is thus to request yon will do me the favour of stating what really took Place between us on the one and only occasion upon which we rionversed on the subject of Mr. Medhurst's release, I have the honour to be, Sir, Your obedient and faithful servant, John Edmond, Esq. H. C. MORETON DYER. FROM JOHN EDMOND, ESQ. TO H. C. MORETON DYER, ESQ. Argyll Chambers, Argyll-place, June 28, 1841. Sir—ln reply to your letter of yesterday, I beg to say that on a former occasion, during the time that an investigation ' took place, I then considered it my duty to refuse to commu nicate the particulars of the conversation you referred to, so now I must also decline to alter my determination. I have the honour to be, Sir, your obedient servant, To. H. C. Moreton Dyer, Esq. JOHN EDMOND. FROM H. C. SLORETON DYER, ESQ., TO JOHN EDMOND, ESQ. Devonshire-place House, June, 1841. Sir—l deeply regret that the circumstances of the case should make you feel it your duty to determine to be silent upon it. Having, however, the highest opinion of your ho nour, I confess 1 no right to find fault with that de termination, or to dispute your justice or discretion in form ing it ; but I am sure you will pardon me for pressing most seriously upon you the urgent necessity of at least inform ing me, for the satisfaction of my friends and the public if anything passed between us on the occasion alluded to in my last letter, which was dishonourable or discreditable to me as a Magistrate or a man of honour, or from which you drew an inference that I was to derive any pecuniary or other advantage from Mr. Medhurst's release.

Sir—l should have earlier answered your letter, but being out of town prevented my doing so. I have no objection to state, that on the occasion alluded to in your letter, nothing occurred injurious to your honour or character, nor did I infer that you were to derive any advantage or emolument from the transaction ; my impression was, that your motives were those of humanity. I must now beg positively to decline any further communication on this subject. 1 have the honour to be, Sir, &c., H. C. Moreton Dyer, Esq. JON EDMOND. ;AO\ NAVAL INTELLIGENCE.

LORD KING'S PROTEST AGAINST THE PRE SENT LAW, ENTERED ON THE LORDS' JOURNALS, JUNE 16, 1828. " Dissentient,—Because the Bill, imposing high and most unreasonable duties on the importation of foreign corn is most impolitic if intended as a source of revenue, inasmuch as taxes laid upon the necessaries of life in crease the cost of labour, diminish the profit of capital, and are the immediate cause of general decay and impo verishment. It is most unjust if intended to enhance the price of coin for the advantage of individuals, inasmuch as a monopoly for that purpose is opposed to the first principles of legislation, and invades the rights of the community at large. " 2. Because it is an abuse of the legis'ative power, held in trust for the public good, to enact laws calculated to promote the private advantage of any one particular order. The use of law is to secure equally to all the fruits of their labour and industry; the abuse of law is to take away, either directly by unnecessary or unequal taxa tion, an undue proportion of the produce of the labour of the community, or indirectly to compass the same cud by odious and destructive monopolies, conferring exclu sive privileges on one order, at the expense of all other classes of the community. If the landowners have as undoubted right to the property they possess, and to the absolute disposal of the produce of that land, the people of the country have no less an undoubted right to obtain their supply of food either from the home-grower, or from any other who can afford it at the cheapest rate. " 3. Because the present Bill affords no expectation of establishing a final settlement of the Corn-laws, so de sirable and necessary for the country, after suffering the evil of monopoly, fluctuation, and uncertainty, for a pe riod of thirteen years ; but utterly hopeless until the pro posed laws shall be consonant to sound policy, common right, and equal justice.
