The quarterly returns of the national revenue are happily continual sources of congratulation to Eng lishmen. In spite of reiterated reductions of taxa tion and the actual removal of several imposts, in spite of the enormous outlay which is continually going on in our public departments, in spite even of the depression caused by the financial panic in the spring, the revenue goes on more than confirming the most sanguine anticipations. We are so accus tomed to our good fortune in this respect that we take it almost as a matter of course, and should be doubtless very much astonished if we found our quarter's tables telling another story. Several causes make the satisfactory charac ter of the returns now before us more than usually remarkable, and if we look into the items we shall find some noticeable variations. The increase ou the quarter just ended as compared with the cor responding quarter of 1865 is £325,520. On the nine last months of the year, as compared with the same period of 1865, the net increase is £973,370 ; while on the whole year of 1866, as compared with its predecessor, the net decrease is only £410,816, less than half a million. This, of course, is attributable to the reduction of the property tax, which makes a difference in the year of over £2,000,000. The customs during the nine months of the year have more than realised Mr. GLADSTONE'S estimate, and the Customs also, if they produce the same average in the ensuing quar ter of the financial year, will exceed his expecta tions. The Post-office, which is generally so rapid in its increase, does not come up to expectation. It was estimated to increase by £200,000, but as yet it has only shown a gain of £125,000, and, what is not a little remarkable, the last quarter's share of that increase is only £lO,OOO. Perhaps the depression every where complained of in trading and commercial circles may account in some measure for this, as well as for the decrease under the head of stamps, which amounts to £345,000 in the nine months, and £269,000 in the quarter. Still the sum total of the returns is more than satisfactory ; it is highly en couraging, especially when we take into account the many adverse influences of the past year. The two principal sources of increase in the quarter are of course the Customs, with a gain of £294,000, and the excise, with an income of £361,000. In the miscellaneous items which swell the year's returns are included half a million of New Zealand Bonds, a seasonable assistance. The general condition of the national finances is, in spite of all drawbacks, most gratifying, and tax-payers may look confi dently forward to a further reduction of the national burdens. PARIS, Monday Evening. The Paris papers again discuss the affairs of the East with some anxiety and attention. There still appears to be some doubt in regard to the alleged communication of a despatch from the Turkigi Go vernment to the Minister of Foreign Affairs. Some of the journals persist in the statement that such a note has passed through the hands of Djeinil Pacha, the Turkish Minister ; on the other hand, it is stated officially that such a note does not exist. A later from Florence, dated Dec. 24, states that there has been a blight disturbance at Rome, and that some workmen who were singing the Gari baldi hymn were arrested. The occurrence seems rather to have arisen out of the joviality of the sea son than from any political feeling. There is now rapid railway communication between Florence and Rome. The express morning train from Florence reaches Rome the same evening. The journey from Florence to Naples may be effected in 22 hours. Travellers, who know how tediously and slowly the vetturino formerly conveyed them, will consider this news to be very interesting. According to the writer of a letter from Rome the Italian Government appears to fear some outbreak or some political movement. At all events, the Roman frontier is now very strictly guarded. The military cordon has been strengthened, and various other precautions have been taken. Two Roman emigrants, supposed to be connected with the so called National Roman Committee, have received orders to leave the city. M. Menebrea, it was said, was about to repair to Vienna as Envoy Extraor dinary and Minister Plenipotentiary for the King of Italy to Austria. The note of preparation for the opening of the Chambers has commenced. M. Troplong, first President of the Court of Cassation, has been ap pointed President of the Senate for the year 1867, and M. Boudet, Vice-President. Marshal Count Baraguay d'llilliers, Marshal Count Regnaud de St. Jean d'Angely, 141, de Royer, and M. Delangle have been appointed Vice-Presidents of that Body.

The Government are evidently anxious for the full establishment of civil law, and President JOHNSON has given another indication of his deter mination to oppose the rule of force.

The Moniteur, after enumerating the vessels sent from French ports to bring home the troops from Mexico, says :—" From the commencement of the present month successive departures have taken place every day, and some of the vessels have already arrived at Vera Cruz. By the Bth of January next they will all have left the ports of France. The concentration of our troops continues to be rapidly effected. Accounts from Mazatlan in form us that on the 12th of November the French garrison evacuated that town, and that it had been despatched to San Blas by the Victoire on its way to the port of embarkation." In spite of the adverse reports upon the subject, it is officially stated that the negotiation entrusted by the Italian Government to Commander Tonello has made great progress. Most of the points pro pounded by the Pontifical Government as the basis of the arrangement are admitted in principle, and without difficulty by the Cabinet of Florence. There is every reason to believe that a speedy ar rangement will be effected of the questions which could not be settled at the time of M. Vegezzi's mission. Cardinal de Angelis, archbishop of Ferm o who has been absent from his diocese for several years, has just returned to it. The following will complete the amount of re markable deaths during the year 1866. The number of persons who died after having attained upwards of 100 years was 22. The greater proportion were women. Four were 104 years old. Two had reached 105, Madame Anne Merilhac and the Baroness do Peusades de Bacheu.

Onofre Robles, a native of San Juan de Los Llauos, who was 133 years old. The list may be wound up by perhaps an unparalleled case of modern lon gevity, that of Joseph Crelc, who had reachel 141 years. Among the deaths were those of M. Flocon, a member of the Provisional Government of 1848, and that of Count de Guernon de Rauville, Minister of Public Instruction in the time of Charles the Tenth. THE Mil' REMEDY 1001{, INDIGEsTION.

The chief purport of the Italian peace treaty is therein included in the iden tical expressions previously agreed on through the medium of Count Barral with the Cabin et of Florence. His Majesty the Emperor of Austria agrees (article II.) . • . While Prussia has so conscientiously and completely fulfilled the ob ligations entered into by the treaty of alliance, she warmly congratulatei herself upon having contributed to the completb n o f this national work, begun and terminated b Ythe illustrious ruler who guides the destinies of tithed Italy. The under signed has the satisfactiaa of serving as the organ of his Government in the assurances of friend ship it expresses up on the present occa sion. But the mission of the undersigned is not ended therewith. He 15 at the same time desired to state the express wish of the Prussian Cabinet that the alliance of the two States should not cease with the phase of war, butinay be strengthened and per petuated in the period of peace upon which we now enter. In this ePth of European calm the two nations will increasetheir beneficial nearer relations, and abundantly gather the fruits of the union of their government. The Prussian Government flatters itself that, in view of these great objects, Italy will prize 1 15 less highly than Prussia the future union her ally proposes.—Receive, Sze., USEDO3I."

The treaty of peace between Italy and Austria by whirl the union of Venetia to the kingdom of Italy, 'without any other condition than the partition of the 4bts, is confirmed, was signed at Vienna on the 3d inst. . . You will therefore communicate this fact officially to his Excellency the Prussian Minister for Foreign Affairs, and thus comply with the reserve the King's Government considered itself obliged t o m ake in its reply to the despatch of the Prussian Ambassador. Italy has now gained her national independence, and the period of peace opeting before us will show how useful and manifold are the bonds of sympathy and common int erests which are to conti nue b etween the Ger man and Italian nations. I beg you to embrace thi s op portunity to renew to his excellency the Mi- Lister for Foreign Affairs of King William the ex pression of our firm hope that the alliance happily c omm enced between our two countries may becom e st ill more intimate, and that the advantages of suc eess ful friendship may survive the conscientiously fulfilled obligations which were entered into in view of a great national object.

THE AMERICAN YACIITSMEN.--His Royal High ness the Duke of Edinburgh, RN., attended by Lieutenant Haig, honoured Lord Henry Lennox with his company at dinner at the Admiralty on Friday last, the 28th inst. Sir John Pakington and other distinguished guests were in vited on the occasion, among whom were Mr. MiVicar, commodore of the New York Yacht Club, and Capt. Gor don Bennett, the owner of the successful yacht Henrietta, who came up from the Isle of Wight to have the honour of meeting his Royal highness on this occasion. PORTUGUESE LI GIfIAIAOY—DoII MIGUEL 11. We transfer to our columns from those of the Weekly Register of Saturday last the following re markable letter under the above title : " Sir,--I have lust received for publication in this country the enclosed declaration, written by my esteemed friend, whose signature it bears, and which the de jure Queen of Portugal, the widow of the late King Dom Miguel 1., wishes should be published in England, besides my own declara tions on the same subject. On my part, it is scarcely necessary that I should reiterate what I have so repeatedly maintained in your own columns, and in other English papers—viz., that Dom Miguel I. was, whilst living, the only lawful King of Portugal, consequent on the death of his father, John VI., and the recognition of the Bra zilian Independence by all Europe. In your paper of the 16th January, 1864 (if I recollect right), you inserted a demonstration, written by me, of that ligitirnate right, which demonstration was pro nounced unanswerable, or uncontroverlible, by a very high authority in the anti-Miguelite party; and .I defy, even now, anybody to contradict it. I there conclusively adduced the legal foundations of the King's constitutional right, which, of course, ex cluded any other similar claim whilst the same sovereign lived and did not abdicate. It is obvious that such right passes on to Dom Miguel's eldest son (and, in default of this, to the eldest daughter), and, consequently, Prince Dom Miguel 11. lawfully succeeds, in the right of his Royal father, to the Portuguese Throne. This same declaration I had occasion to proclaim at the time of the marriage of that most virtuous and lamented Prince, Dorn Pedro d'Alcantara, the eldest son of the excellent Brazilian Princess, Donna Maria da Gloria (the Quadruple-Alliance Queen imposed on Portugal). When the negotiations were taking place at Berlin for the above-named prince's union with that most amiable and deeply-regretted Princess Stephanie, it was given out in . Lisbon that the King, Dom Miguel, had renounced his claims to the Throne' in exchange for a pension. As soon as I was ap ' prised of the absurd rumour I immediately sent to Portugal my own printed protest, declaring that the thing rumoured had no more importance or effect, even if true—which I did not credit—than obliging our Legitimists to append two capital I's instead of one to the name of the Prince, and to make us shout " Long Live Dorn Miguel II.," in stead of " Dorn Miguel I." The time has now arrived for the Portuguese Royalists to double the lon their banner. The change is, indeed, very small, and I do think that the demise of the late legitimate sovereign makes no difference in the feel ings and hopes of the true National Party, unless it be the increasing of their hopes for the restoration at some future time or other of ther legitimate rights, influence, and position in their country. I know that the party imposed on my country by the Quadruple Alliance will laugh at such tenacious hope, and that they will consider themselves as secure in their mastery of Portugal as the Count- Duke of Olivares and Philip IV. of Spain did in 1639 ; this, however, did not prevent the Duke of Braganza being restored to his lawful rights some time after. In our own days we have seen wonder ful upsettings enough in even the most powerful States and Governments, not to be quite despairing of still witnessing some turn in favour of the right fulsection, and the rightful sovereign of the country. If Portugal got rid of Spanish usurpation at the end of sixty years, may she not also free herself from another intrusion, even within a like period, or somewhat less, than that ? Here is my friend's declaration : Sir,—ln presence of the great misfortune which has just afflicted the partisans of Legitimacy in Portugal by the loss of their august chief, the King Dorn Miguel 1., it is im portant that public opinion in Europe should be fixed, and regularly acquainted with the attitude, the hopes, and the intentions of that eminently National Party in their actual sew circumstances. This, lam going to state, not on my own authority, but as duly empowered by the Queen Adelaide Sophie, in her quality of mother and natural guardian of Prince Dons Miguel, the son, successor, and the heir of the rights of the deceased kint..: A very few words will suffice to make this attitude, as well as such hopes and intentions, understood. "Rd mono, Rd pogo" (King dead, King raised) is our ancient Portuguese for mula for all circumstances similar to those in which we find ourselves placed at this moment. One King being dead, his Crown, his authority, his rights, immediately pass on to the person of his natural successor, and the national life is continued without interruption as regularly as before. According to those principle; the position of the great Portuguese National Party remains precisely now what it was before the sad event which occasions this declaration, with the only difference that those who formerly shouted "Long Live Dons Miguel I." will now shout for "Dom Miguel .11." The great Portuguese national and truly constitutional party has lost one man, and that is all. Now, for what concerns the solidity of the incontestable rights transmitted by the deceased monarch to his son, they have ben o rly enough defined by the Courts of Lisbon of 1 44 IV rose enactment was confirmed by the letters patent of King John IV., of 12th September, 1642, so as to render it unnecessary to speak of it again. And, indeed, the de facto Government themselves have posi tively admitted thise rights when they proposed to King Dons Miguel a renunciation of his claims in exchange for the restitution of a portion of his own property, the whole having been purely and simply confiscated, informally, and in contradiction to the principles of justice held by all Governments of the like origin. Such proposals were peremptorily rejected, and most certainly would be so again, should they be brought forward anew. In fine, as to the conduct of the National Party upon those new cir cumstances, it will be as follows:—Remembering St. Paul's doctrine, in his Epistle to the -Romans, the Portuguese Legitimists will obey the constituted authorities until it shall please Providence to change the state of things im posed by the Quadruple Alliance, founded on the right of force. But their aspirations, their hopes, their fidelity, their love, will constantly persevere for the king of their heart, the only one they henceforward will recognise as such. This one is but a child as yet, who shall, however, be soon a man, and is already a handsome young prince, as handsome in personal appearance as he is richly en dowed in intellectual qualities. [The Ed. of the W. R. here interpolates a notification to the effect that, in addi tion to this son, we believe that the late ex-King leaves issue by his marriage six daughters.] lie is now 13 years and some weeks old, having been born September 19, 1853. Ho finishes his education under the vigilant eyes of his mother, and the direction of his tutor, Doctor Gomes d'Abren, ono of the worthiest men in the National Party. This gentleman, long before accepting his honourable charge, had already won the high respect of his political partisan; by sacrificing his professorship in the University of Coimbra the moment an oath was demanded from him of fidelity to a prince whom his conscience did not allow hint to acknowledge as the legitimate sovereign.. I beg you kindly to publish this declaration .in your valuable paper, and am, with great respect, your obedient • servant, J. GAMA DE CASTRA. Paris, Nov. 20. This gentleman, one of great literary and scien tific acquirements, a very distinguished doctor of the Portuguese University, has been always a most staunch and consistent partisan of King D om Miguel and the Legitimate system in Portugal. Resident in Paris now for many years, he has been there the confidential agent and representativ e of the deceased king—this honourable contidencebeing continued to him by the widowed queen and the royal family. . _ _ _ A. R. SARAIVA. 21, Nottingham-street, Marylebone, W., London, Dec. 19. Mr. BRIGHT, M.P., AND THE BOLTON CLERGY MAN.—A Short time ago the Rev. W. Chamberlain, incumbent of St. John's, Bolton, delivered a speech at a Conservative gathering in that town, in the course of which the rev. gentleman made some remarks strongly reflecting on the political character of the hon. member for Birming ham. Observing that there was a vast amount of " hum bug" in the world, the rev. speaker added, " but I never did think that my fellow-countrymen could swallow all the abominable trash that John Bright utters. I look upon him as a most ignorant, unfortunate man." A Bolton gen tleman wrote to the hon. member, protesting, on behalf of the people of Bolton, against the abusive language used by the rev. politician. In r ep ly, Mr. Bright sends the follow ing note :—" Rochdale, Dec. 17, 1866. Dear Sir, —I must write to you one line, to thank you for the newspaper and for your kind note. 1 hope that the result of our labour may show that we have been in the right, and that the abuse of our opponents has been undeserved. I pity the congregation which is doomed to receive its weekly supply of spiritual instruction from the ignorant and vulgar minis ter whose speech has been recently reported in your papers. He is a poor guide for this world, and I know not how any one can trust him for the next.—l am, truly yours, Join; BRIGHT." _ BROCCOLI.—Within the last few days upwards of 2,000 crates of broccoli have beou sent from West Corn wall to London and the north.

This year the distribution took place under the Town-hall yesterday morning, where the royal butchers distributed the meat. This plan was found more convenient than if, as origi nally intended, the gifts had been given in the shops. The meat was arranged on tables under the Town-hall used by butchers and poulterers on market-days. Each ticket holder entered from the corn-market, and left, after receiv ing his or her portion, through the fish-market, so all con fusion was obviated. The coals were sent to the parties. The arrangements at Windsor wore carefully and judici ously made by the Rev. E. L. Thompson, and by Church wardens Griffin and Frowd ; at Holy Trinity, by the Rev. 11. C. Hawtrey ; and at Glower, by the Rev. T. T. Carter.
