Slll,—My attention has been called to a letter, signed " Fair Play," in the Morning Herald of to-day, containing a variety of antiabkand ingenious strictures upon my " Statement o the late Paris Affair." I am very much obliged to Mr. " Fair Play," (although I am inclined to think he has assumed a title to which he has no claim), for the opportunity he has afforded me of de claring, that having nothing to add to, and nothing to retract from, the statement alluded to, I shall not be pro voked by any circumstances whatever, into a further discussion on the subject. I perceive, however, that Mr. " Fair Play" most gal lantly offers (although he admits that he is wholly unacquainted with either Miss Bellew or myself) to make known his name and address (his intentions •he would not have mistaken) if called upon to do so. I- hasten to assure him that I have no in tention myself of making any such call (if the public have any curiosity on the subject, I can have no objection to the indul gence of it), but I shall meet any attempt Mr." Fair Play" may make to engage me in a personal quarrel (whether he be , soldier, sailor, or civilian), by introducing him to the no- , tice of a Magistrate, at the nearest Police Court, as a warning to all other Don Quixotes !! and I will further hint to him, for his future guidance in such matters, that on all occasions Vk hen he may find himself in a" martial mood " (especially towards an utter stranger), it would be better, and more in accordance with the course usually re sorted to in such cases, to make known privately his bellige rent propensities, towards his intended victim, rather than affright the public by a premature disclosure of them. I have no particular objection to a fight, especially where a lady is in the case, but even then I have two foolish prejudices to gratify. The first is, that the lady shall possess some degree of interest in my eyes, and then that the Mr. " Fair Play" shall have some little claim to identify himself with me—neither of which is the case upon the present occasion. 1 have the honour to he, Sir, your most obedient servant, Grosvenor Hotel, Ma rc h 16, 1842. WILLIAM PAGET. ALARMING FIRE. Yesterday morning, about half-past two o'clock, a fire took 1 place in the house of Mr..Jardine,a_chemist and druggist, i n Drur3- i lane, nearly opposite Great Q ueen-s tree t, reet , Long-acre. It originated n the back. parlour, on a level with the shop, and the first intimation the family received of the danger to . which they were exposed was b y t h e i r h av i ng been awoke by, i smoke. With great presence of mind Mr. Jardine, his wife, ! children, and servants snatched up what apparel l a id near I them, and all hop e o f escape ha vin g been cut off a t th e I : bottom of the house, they ,managal to reach the roof, when, after some difficulty, they, were assisted into the house. of Mr.. Perryman, eating-house keeper, of Long acre.. The police-officers of the. Fdivision, with Mr. Inspector Musgrove at their head, soon procured an engine from a neigh- 4 bouring brewery, and quickly afterwards twelve others belong- 1 ing to the London Establishment, West of England, and Conxity ] stations, also arrived, but notwithstanding all the exertions of 1 the firemen, the entire stock, furniture, and building of Mr. 1 Jardine were destroyed, as also the greater part of the property 4 of Mr. Walker, upholsterer, adjoining. We regret to state that one of the firemen, in coming down a stair with the hose, ' I fell with great violence on his back, and was carried in a dan gerous state to Charing. cross Hospital. STATE OF TRADE. (From the Manchester Guardian.) MANCHESTER. —There was very little change in our market yesterday. The financial measures proposed by Sir Robert Peel have been, on the whole, favourably re ceived, and have tended to diminish the gloom and de spondency which previously existed ; but, beyond this, no improvement can be reported. There is no increase of business, either in go o d s or yarn ; and prices of both remain at the very lowest point that has yet been reached. ROCHDALE FLANNEL MARKET, MONDAY, MARCH 14.—There has been a gloomy piece market to-day, and but very little business transacted at any prices. Dur ing the last week a small manufacturer for the Blackwa ter market has assigned over his effects for the benefit of his creditors. One of the largest firms of cotton spinners have given notice to reduce the wages of their workmen, on Saturday next. HUDDERSFIELD MARKET, MARCH 1 5.—After an un paralleled length of gloom, and a waste of the energies of industry, it is with great satisfaction we report that the aspect of this market is more cheering. Buyers w ere not very numerous, but those who were here to-day purchased more freely, and the spirits of most trades men were better. No great amount of business was done, but every movement was an indication that trade is on the eve of revival, and that prices will ad vance. Sir Robert Peel's budget, and the details of the tariff, have given an impetus that cannot fail to relieve the suffering mercantile body. The demand was mis cellaneous, or in assortments of heavy fine woollens, and fancy goods of all descriptions. Business in the ware houses is decidedly better, and prices generally are im proving, and doubtless will improve, there being so much room. Work, too, is becoming more and more plentif u l, and what is always a good symptom, many orders are in hand.—Manchester Guardian. The Oste n d papers state that it has been found quite impassible to get the City of Edinburgh afloat; that the engines and sirae other parts will be taken out of the hull, o ,nd :hat the vessel will then be gold by auction and broken up. Stvc Mr. Mr. Mr. DREADFUL HURRICANE AT SOUTHEND. On Wednesday night, between eight and nine o'clock, Southend was visited by a most tremendous storm of wind and rain, the severity of which has not been equalled for many years, and its effects have been most melanQwly and disastrous. The wind blew a perfect hurricane from the south-east, and the rain fell in torrents. Windows were blown in, and slates, tiles, &c., were hurled in all directions. Many persons were afraid to retire to rest, and others who had done so were greatly alarmed, as the houses literally shook (such was the force of the wind), and they were per ceptibly rocked in their beds. About half-past twelve o'clock the tempest began to subside, and day-break presented to the view the wreck of no fewer than six boats which had been driven from their anchors, all of which had sustained serious damage, and many were completely destroyed, being by the violence of the wind driven against the wharfs and piles of the pier, until they were not only complete wrecks, but had the appear ance of being chopped up for fire-wood ; such destruc tion among the boats here was never before witnessed, and the most distressing circumstance is, they were mostly the property of poor hard-working men, who have no other means of subsistence. The Rhoda, of Newcastle, was V driven from her an . - chors on Shosbury Beach, but got off without much damage. The Ocean Chili and Wave, from hence, being on the lopk out on Thursday morning, perceived a large ship on shore on theMaplin Sand s ; th e y went to h er assistance, when sh e proved to be the St. Lawrence, bound to Malta, with Government stores. She had lost all her anchors, and sprung a leak, having then two feet of water in her hold, which afterwards considerably in creased. She was taken into Whitstable, and being par tially repaired, the next day proceeded to London, with the crews of the boats; who were compelled incessantly to work at the pumps We believe she arrived in safety. EDINBURGH & GLASGOW RAIL WAY.-SUNDAY TRAINS. Yesterday, as our headers are already aware, the first Sunday trains commenced running on the Edinburgh and Glasgow Railway ; and wo are happy to state that everything went off in the most quiet and orderly man ner. So far as Glasgow is concerned, we are enabled to state that not one of its inhabitants, but for the previous announcement made in the advertisements of the Company; would have known that such a thing as a railway train had been put in motion ; the streets were as quiet and decorous as on former Sabbaths, and even in the neighbourhood of the terminus scarcely any difference could be , observable. In the afternoon and evening, it is true, a number of people, actuated by feelings of curiosity, assembled to witness the departure and arrival of the trains both here and at Cowlaws ; but in a few moments their curiosity was gratified, and they dispersed without the slightest breach of decency or decorum being exhibited, The number of passengers who passed along the line, going and coming, was 878. In the morning train from Glasgow there were nine carriages, three of each class, carrying 259 passengers, the greater portion of whom were for Bishopbriggs, Kirkintilloch, and the stations in the west. The morning train from Edinburgh, on its arrival in Glasgow, had 197 passengers. The evening train from Glasgow had 143 passengers, and the evening train from Edinburgh 279. It has been alleged that the Sunday travelling must have the effect of making people, who would otherwise travel on Saturday, postpone their journey till the Sun day ; but it so happens that, on Saturday last, there were more persons conveyed along the line than have Tet been on any one. day. We shall see what the result is to -day.—Glasgow Argus of Monday. MONEY MARKETeaId CITY NEWS.

A Northern Correspondent informs us that the news of Sir Robert Peel's scheme of additional taxation, has been received on the Tyne and the Wear by men of all parties, Whig, Tory, and Radical, with astonish ment and indignation. The income tax, which is to send a legal in qu i s i tor i nto the very heart of every man's business, will be evaded by all the " ingenious devices " that so • hateftil a measure can call into action. It is felt to be monstrous to lay an equal tax on th e comfortable owner of real property, worth, say 2Q,01. per annum, and on the shopkeepe r and merchant' s c l er k , who have but the same income, and that precarious, wherewith to keep up a decent appearance in society, and make provision for the wants of old age, and it m a y b e, for the future de mands of their children. The shipowners are uttering curses loud and deep against the author of the proposed tax on export coal. Already cramped in the field of enterprise, and pushed to the verge of destruction by our abominable Corn-laws., they look with utter dismay on this last blow to their expiring interests. Were our gracious Queen to dis solve Parliament, the duped manufacturer, the cheated shipowner, and the "humbugged" farmer, would com bine to return a House of Commons very different from the present one. Those that cried out against the rule of the Whigs, as the reign of King Log, are now feeling the tender mercies of the Tory king Stork. They are rightly served for placing him where he is. THREE BODIES FOUND IN THE RIVER THAMES:— On Saturday morning, between seven and eight o'clock, the bodies of two young men, having the appearance of sailors, wrre found floating in the river hames, off Rotherhithe. The deceased are supposed to have belonged to some barge lost during the late gale. Between eight andnine o'clock the body of a young female was found between Southwark and London bihtges, and conveyed to the workhouse. The Havre papers state that the gale of Wednesday night and Thursday morning eras felt very severely in that town, and was considered the strongest which had been ex perienced since February, 1832. No damage ofany importance is mentioned among the shipping. The Nantes papers mention that the high tides at the end of last moan have made serious encroachments in the shores of the Island of Noirmouliers, and that the inhabitants are vnder appreheesitn of the sea making a complete breach through the sandy downs into the cultivable lands. The Swiss papers state, that, from an inspection of the bed of the Rhine, between Basle and Sehaffhwsen, it has been found impracticable to navi gate that part of the river with steamers, the current being ,either t oo rap i d i n some places, or too much obstructed by rocks in when. THE LONt)ON; THURSDAY MORNING, AIARCEI 17, 1842 SHIPWRECK. The Jasper, of St. Andrews, Greig, bound from Leith to Liverpool, with gunpowder, herrings, &c., drove from her anchors in Leith Roads, during a heavy gale from the W.S.W. on Friday afternoon, and was run ashore at half-past six P.M., a short dis tance east from Cockenzie Harbour. It being then nearly low water, she took the ground about 150 yards from the rocks. To save the vessel was impossible ; the only consideration was how to rescue the crew from almost inevitable destruction. At first even the stout-hearted fishermen considered any attempt to board the ship en tirely out of the question. In a short time, however, Alexander Ross offered the use of his boat (on being assured that any damage done to it would be made good) ; and he, John Thomson, and eight other men, gal lantly volunteered to endeavour to save the people on board. The boat was soon at the water's edge ; but here the risk and danger commenced. For above an hour and a half the united strength of between 40 and 50 men could not launch the boat through the surf; at last she was got afloat, amidst the cheers of a large multitude, and in a few minutes was along side of the Jasper. The crew, consisting of Captain Greig, Thomas Lamb, mate, George Wemyss, and Robert - Stenton, seamen, leaped into the boat ; also the Captain's wife and son; their youngest child, about thirteen months old, was thrown from the deck into the arms of a fisherman, and the anxious mother was not aware of its preservation until she reached the shore. All were landed safely. A dog left on board was drowned. When the tide flowed, the vessel drifted upon the rocks, and went to pieces during the n i g ht. At daylight on Saturday morning, the beach on both sides of Portseton was strewed with the wreck and cargo. A great many barrels of gunpowder have been saved, and placed above high water mark, like wise some barrels of herrings ; a few of the latter were plundered. A cask of wine, on reaching the shore, was stove in, and the contents carried off in cans, &c. Some loose powder was exploded by the recklessness of a fisherman smoking his pipe near it. A great part of the rigging, sails, and spars have been saved, Before leaving Leith Roads the Jasper had a signal of distress flying, but no assistance came. —Edinburgh Evening Courant DISTRESSING ACCIDENT.—FOUR LIVES LOST. — We feel deep regret at having this week to record an accident which has been attended with loss of life to the steward and—three of the seamen belonging to her Majesty's revenue cutter, Mer maid, Captain Rymer, R.N., Commander. The vessel lay at the North Queensferry, and on Tues day last, about noon, a six-oared boat, with the same number of men, besides the steward, was sent ashore to bring coals aboard. The boat was on its return to the vessel, and at only a short distance from the shore, when it shipped a sea, and im mediately filled and went down. Three of the men were saved by means of boats from the shore, and were conveyed on board in a very exhausted state. The remaining four were unfortunately drowned. Their names were Abraham Mar shall, the steward, a person, we understand, much 03teemed by his commander, as well as by all who knew him, a native of Berwi c k, an d married, but without a family, aged 32. The other three were young men about the age of 19 or 20, and did not belong to Berwick. They were named respectively, Thomas Hinckley, Gasson, and Alfred Stokes. —Berwick Warder. TILE TORY INCOME TAN. 1'R034 tiik 'MORNING PAPERS OF YESTERDAY. TIMES.—We observe that the expected debate in the House of Lords, on Lord Brougham's resolutions, has not taken place, owing to the non-attendance of certain Peers whose presence was thought necessary. We confess we looked with some anxiety to the result of that motion ; we were anxious to know whether that noble body would perceive where the shoe pinched, though at the same time we must acknowlenge we were not very sanguine in our hopes of their doing so ; for their Lordships, we must be allowed to say, whatever may be their individual and collective sagacity, dignity, and integrity, are not real and experimental judges of the painful effects of a tax upon trade and professions—that is to say, upon human industry, in its countless and varying applications. Still less can they appreciate the odious inquisition by which such a tax on industry will be accompanied. To say nothing of certain other advantages, which the Members of that House already-pos sess, a Peer's income is easily got at ; his estate is known ; its rent is known ; and the duty on the mortgage, wherever such exists, may be at once deducted by his own agent from the interest payable. He has to dread no expo ure—to produce no ledger— to um ergo no cross -examination—and can hardly be supposed to understand the a nnoyance , an d even d anger, w hi c h will arise to others from such vexatious interferences with the course of their business. In compliance with the request made to us by several correspondents, who, though strongly attached to the Conservative Ministry, are yet jealous of a tax which is expected to press heavily upon incomes acquired by industry, we republish to-day some extracts from our journal of six-and• twenty years ago; which may, perhaps, be some proof to those who tax us with versalitity, that though we change our support of men, we are invariably firm in principles. No satisfactory answer can be given to what we republish ; and if the same feeling existed now as prevailed at the time when those articles were first written, no Minister would have ever thought of the revival of an income tax under any form whatsover, and to whatever extent modified, otherwise than as a hopeless impossibility. We retain the same opinion as that which we have already expressed, that Sir Robert Peel's finan cial statement is that of a great and capacious mind ; and that he is pre-eminently qualified to relieve the embarrassments of the country, p educed latterly by the wretched Government he has succeeded. But perhaps that single circumstance, of his contemplating one grand sy s t em , h as ren d ere d him less ob servant of the details. We are indeed ready to allow, that however he and his colleagues may have pledged them selves by former declarations never to revive a pro perty tax except in time of war, yet evidently that pledge rested upon an implied supposition, the falsifica tion of which wholly absolves them from a breach of en gagement ; for who could have contemplated that the finances of the country should have been so mismanaged, that we should have been continually running into more debt in a time of peace? Such a prodigious fact as this fully and plainly exonerates them from their pledge. The possessors of property which,will now become liable should have looked more sharply to the public concerns when these debts were contracted, which it will now be incumbent on them to pay off. They have all wed success i ve Mi n i str i es to have their swing, and now they must smart for it. Look, for instance, at the famous Exchequer-bill hand and folly. Look at the sums which have been advanced under pretence of as sisting the public works. We will venture to say, that of one million and a half sterling advanced in two cases—for the English tnnnel and the Irish workhouses—on securities the most glaringly fictitious, not one farthing, principal or interest, will ever be repaid. These promising concerns are the produce of Mr. Spring Rice's skill and integrity—qualities on the score of which he has contrived to obtain a greater sum of rewards for himself and his family than perhaps any other man in the kingdom. It must not be supposed that we disapprove, under the present necessity, of a property tax. We do not; but we must put in a strong petition that every other possibility which the science of finance suggests be exhausted, before industry be taxed. We can assure the Government, that there are thou sands of persons deriving large returns from trade and in dustry, who would be most glad to contribute liberally to the public exigencies, but who look with horror at the inquisito rial character of an income tax, which would empower a board of Commissioners to overhaul their accounts, and to interfere with the daily operations of their trade or profession. HERALD.—Lord Brougham may contend that his resolu tions are not condemnatory of the income tax ; and he has doubtless introduced language into the third resolution which will verbally support such a view ; but if these resolutions, taken as a whole, do not mean opposition, then is the majority of them mere declaratory verbiage. If the Noble and Learned Lord be not hostile to the Government proposal, but merely seek to amend it, by limiting its operation to income derived from capital, and by greatly relieving income the result of I labour, it was surety unnecessary to overwhelm a resolution, affirming so whole some a proposition with an abstract dictum on the general inexpediency of resorting to an income tax. While we can anticipate no benefit fiom the House of Lords being thrust into a premature discussion of the income tag, before the details—more especially the important portion which relates to the mode of collection—have been iubmitted to the House of Commons; and while we think Sir Robert Peel acted most prudently in declining to reply to Mr. Baring's questions last night—still we trust that Government will not refuse to make all such substantial_improvements in the plan, which on Friday will be laid before the House of Commons, as may be suggested, and that without reference to the quarter whence they proceed. The people are willing to make the sacrifice asked by Government; but we protest against that willingness befit g make the instrument of inflicting unnecessary hardships. Simplicity will be purchased too dearly at the cost of domestic suffering. ADVERTISER.—If the smallest income be to bear its proportion of the burden of the state, it must also have its fair proportion in the representation. % e contend that the larger incomes, under existing circumstances, ought to bear a greater propor ion of the tax than the smaller, in ttie lame manner as incomes derived from landed or funded proftrty ought to bear a greater proportion than those accruing from professional or industrial effort, and hereditary incomes greater than those ter minating with the life of the individual. If Sir Robert Peel had admitted these provisions in his scheme, it wou'd have come with far stronger recommendations to the public. It is not too late for the House of Commons, " such as it is," to enforce them on his attention. The turgid rentals and capitals of the country, so urgent in their claims for legislative pro.ection, ought undoubtedly be made to pay extra for that extra security of which they profess to stand in so much need. tin this point of the question we are gratified to quote the opinion of an opponent; the Standard, who, expressing itself with a different intent, remarks--" Taxa tion, to be just and equal, must carefully guard against dis placing any man from his position, and it is obvi tug that the payment of 4/. 10s. by the possessor of 150/. is more likely to displace him from his position than the payment of 61. by the possessor of 2001. a year. Yes, and our Contemporary might have added, the payment of 6/. is more likely to displace from his position the possessor of 2001., than 6001. would the possessor of 10,000/. Of the inquisitorial tendeney of the tax we must reserve our commentary, which, however, must ne cessarily be reserved until the Prem er announces his scheme of assessment, in which, if most scrupulous care and attention be not given to the position of merchants, manufacturers, and traders, the whole scheme, so plausible in the outset, must fall to the ground midst the general execration. CHRONICLE. —A tax on property vested in land, or the funds, and returning a certain income to the possessor, may be assessed with fairness, and collected without vexation. It is when you attempt to reach the income arising from trade or professions; when you interrogate men as to their own gains, or endeavour to collect the information from their neighbours, that the odiousness and oppressiveness of the tax begins. And certainly it is a monstrous injustice that the estate in fee and the . estate for life should be comp e ll e d to contr ib ute t h e same amount; and still more that you should take the same pro portion of the income arising from a fixed property and that resulting from the uncertain and transient source of a man's labour or business. The incomes do not represent the same capital. An income of 1,000/. a year in fee, in the finds or land, would sell for about 30,0004 For a life-interest of 1,000/. a year, from the same sources, no one could get half as much, even in the prime of health and youth ; and a finhcf:o v ,ircasin e tkt r uw,ce y nthhe n aor i nit d eelyhevai o rthdtl r rcii Iffolo f ie e veem i ritpFe b ehion l oe e sentsvfie m efrsaorss a emi ytrernahesomtnyohthcflpeaoninrojinyaeostursue,msl:,dsetow.oat andl : n shifh a o mhien t ti get more for i t than a four or five years' purchase, or sometimes even less.

FROM THE EVENING PAYERS OF YESTERDAY. GLOBE.—It is very remarkable that not one of the Ministerial organs of the press now ventures to say ,, a word i n f avour o f S i r Robert Peel's Income Tax. That some temporary recourse to property has be come necessary, is the utmost they assert ; but that thi s measure is a fair and just appeal of the kind, they dare not now asseverate. And the Times, fearful (it would appear) lest some d—d goo d- natured friend should take it into his head to contrast the tameness of its pre sent lucubrations with its famous Income Tax philip pics of 1816, reprints the latter, and proudly points to them—" That's my thunder—as good as new !" These are bad omens for the future idolatry- of Sir Ro bert's Juggernaut car of Finance. "When the most devout find they are to be crushed by its wheels their fervour lessens. It is the fate of the present Prime Minister on this, as on former occasions, to dis,- gust 'adherents equally by what is good and by what is bad in his measures. The Examiner said of him long ago, " In the political world Mr. Peel h double is to be re sem bl e d t o t h a t un happy crea ti on i n t h e animal kingdom, th e flying fish, whose capa city subjects it t o double enemies, and whose changes of element are but changes of persecu tion. He has hi s goo d p o ints and tendencies, urge his apologists, and we do not deny them ; but we will fra n kly con f ess ou r suspicion that those partial good p o i n t s are eve n causes of the peculiar acharnement we feel towards him, for they are sufficient to cons tit u t e provoking in,consisten cies, and ma k e th e man one disarpozatment. , If the late Ministry h a d o ff ere d t o reimpose the most ob noxious of war-taxes, can it be doubted for a moment how the partisans of the present would have scout e d it ? Y e t th e late Ministry co uld have pointed to gr ea t and ess ent i a l measures for food and commerce. They could h ave pointed to measure s effectually aimed to remove that pressure on the national resources, which was mainly caused by dearth and dearness of ne cessaries. Si r R o b er t Peel's multifarious med dlings with the tariff are very small change for these. They resemble the r ubbish of washed meta l of all s or t s o f d enom i nat i ons which an English mani receives w ith b ew ild e rmentn his first con .. tinental travels. Th e f ee li ng of being cheated is on l y silen ce d b y t h e i mposs ibili ty o f reckoning wh a t may really b e th e va l ue o f so man y minut e co i ns. But about th e In come Tax there is no mistak e . I t i s justly obse rve d b y a Morning Contemporary, th a t th e .temporary nat ure ass i gne d t o it only aggravates its injustice. "H e l ays it on for th ree years only, a s h e says. man with a thre e years ' lease of an estate of one thousand pounds a year will, theref ore , on the whole, contribute just as much as a m an w i th an estate in fee o f t h e same amount. The estate of the first will expire at the end of three yea's ; th e es t ate o f the latter wi ll l ast for ever after him ; but the demand on it will expire at the same moment be as on th e former, cause the t ax will, according to Si r R o b ert P ee l, cease at the end of the three years." STANDARD.—It impossible, said Mr. turte, to tax and please, as to love and be wife. All taxes are odious, but taxes must be imposed if society is to be held together. It seems, therefore, a duty on the part of every good citizen to support the minister who imposes ;taxes which are not glaringly unneces sary or unjust; and this without respect to party interests. But no moral anomaly can be imagined more ross than the offering resistance to a minister of one s own party proposing .taxes admitted on all sides to be necessary, and in their form as just as any taxes can be made. We must again put the question fairly 'as it stands. The question is not, whether any new taxes shall be imposed, but what new taxes ?—not whether we. can go on adding three or four millions annually to the public debt, but how are we to raise three or four millions a year most justly, and after, but long after, ascertaining the justice of the distribution of the impost, with most attention to the public convenience? This is, we suppose, the fair state of thesuestion, and yet many persons seem to misunderstand it. Otherwise we should not hear, as we do, of complaints f rom thi s man and the other ; of th e hard bearing of an. Income Tax upon him, because of the largeness of his family. One gentleman writes to say, that his family numbers 14 persons, and that it is cruel to impose a tax of nine pounds upon the 3001. a year upon which these 14 persons must be supported. It is hard ; but we chal lenge the substitution, of any other efficient and im partial tax, which must be a tax upon necessaries, that would not bear more hardly upon him. It is not as a good, far 'from it, that an Income Tax is to be received, but as the least possible evil. We believe, however, that the majority of reclama tions against an Income Tax do not proceed from persons in the condition of the correspondent whom we have quoted, but from those to whom the tax will apply most justly and most lightly—the very rich ; at least we see the organs of the money power —consistent in upholding their idol, if in nothing else, agreeing in this, though opposed upon all other subjects—the most forward in endeavouring to preju dice the Ministerial plan. When we see this we cannot help thinking that the money power is the party ,waging the battle, though the groun d c h osen is the inte res t o f the industrious. Lord Brougham has reverted to his arguments against the Income Tax 26 years ago ; others have done the same.:—we have carefully examined all these reproduced arguments, and we have been surprised to see how few of them apply to the present time. Putting aside hard words, such as odious tax, detested tax, inquisition, &c. &c. &c. —putting aside, we say, hard words, which never prove anything, these arguments are reduced to com plaints of a breach of engagement, that the tax should cease with the termination of the war; and to the expression of a fear -that the Government having too much money at its disposal, would make an ill use of it. The force of the pledges has, however, we pre sume, expired with the ministries and statesmen by whom these pledges were given, who have been long at rest, and surely had no power to bind posterity through all time.

Nelson, a petition by order, in his private room. (Before Vice-Chancellor BRUCE ) The cases which came before his HONOUR to-day were of a technical and uninteresting character. (Before Vice-Chancellor WIGRAM.) SHARP V TAYLOR. His HONOUR pronounced judgment in this case, the hear ing having been brought to a conclusion yesterday. 7he bill prayed that it might be declared that the plaintiff was entitled to an equal share in a vessel called the Victoria, and also to a moiety of his earnings in four voyages between Liverpool and Charleston since she was purchased. It also prayed an account of the dealings of the parties in respect of such vessel. His Honour said, t hat considering the course taken by the defendant he did not feel called upon to pronounce any opinion as to the illegality of the transactions mentioned in the bill, the defen dant having acknowledged the truth of the agreement alleged to have been entered ►nto between the parties, and consented to abide by it. The defendant having submitted to abide by the agreement mentioned in the answer, namely, that all , profits which should arise or accrue from freights to be carried by the ship Victoria, should be for the joint and equal benefit of the plaintiff and the defendant, he would refer it to the Master to inquire and state what monies had bean received in respect of such freights. CONSISTOI?Y COUII7, March 16. SNOW V. SNOW. _ This was a suit for separation promoted by Mrs. Georgiana Snow against her husband, on the ground of cruelty. The facts as stated on the hearing of the case have already appeared in The Sun. Dr. LUSIIINGTON in delivering his judgment as to the ad missibility of the articles in the libel, said that the parties in this case were married in January, 1832, and lived together till the 25th of November, 1841, when Mr. Snow quitted Paris, where he had been residing, and came to England. The cessation of cohabitation, expressly pleaded at the end of the 39th article, took place on the Bth of December, 1841, the day Mrs. Snow reached Lor don, but the facts showed that cohabitation really ceased on the 26th of No- , vember. Mrs. Snow pleaded certain charges of cruelty, which she alleged had been committed against her by her husband; the ti uth or falsehood of these charges were not the subject of the present inquiry ; it was not necessary to con sider these charges, but there could be no doubt that the per sonal ill-usage in this case had been of the grossest character, so much so as to affect her bodily safety, and even to endanger her life. Such conduct, if proved by evidence, and not barred by any legal objection, would entitle her to the separation she prayed for. There was only one real question to decide, which was, whether the conduct of Mrs. Snow, as described by herself, did not form a legal bar to the progre , s of her suit ; in other words, whether that which was technically called "condonation," had not taker, place. Where condonation was founded on evidence only,. without facts on either side, he took the result to be that the Court would not be satisfied to act on it, unless it was established by conclusive testimony. But this reasoning could not apply where the alleged condonation was founded on the libel alone. The decision of Lord Stowell in the case of Popkin v. Popkin showed that he had taken the whole of the facts into consideration. He therefore felt bound to pronounce his opinion, whether the circumstances pleaded in the libel did or did not form a complete condonation. Condonation, although a technical term, involved in it the for giveness of an offence, and consisted of two kinds ; the first, words t f forgiveness and the act of reconciliation ; the second, an admissio tac . ta. After a consideration of all the cases bear ing on this suit, there were still many points left for conside ration, doubtless because preceding Judges had not thought it necessary to give an opinion 'as to such forgiveness. The course he proposed to take in the present case was to ascer tain what had been actually decided in former cases on this point, and apply the same principles to the present ease. First, he apprehended as a re sult of other cases, it had been determined that a return of the husband and wife to the marriage bed was, under all the circumstances, a presumption of connubial intercourse; and secondly, that if the return to cohabitation was compulsory, no such inference could be drawn. For instance, there could be no condonation where the act of adultery was unknown to the parties aggrieved, and it had also been laid down by the autho rities on this subject, that in respect of condonation between the husband and wife, much would be considered culpable in the husband which would be praiseworthy in the wife. It had also been equally admitted, that when once condonation had taken place, the complaint of the wife, on the grounds of previous adultery and cruelty, was gone. In the present case, there was no allegation of a revival of the acts of cruelty after the return to cohabitation had taken place, and the question was, whether that return, under all the circumstances, did constitute a condonation.. In this case some difficulty arose, from the application of hat he had ter me d th e t hi r d rule. Had this been a ease turn of a husband t o cohabita tion with an a d u l terou he should say that the condona tion was legal and complete. The case of Timmins v. immins was a strong authority for this view of the subject. Vut the line of distinction with respect to other kinds of conduct, had not been perfectly observed. The wife might so completely forgive adultery in the husband as to bar herself of her remedy, but in such a case the endurance of the wife was not always to be construed into insensibility. But there was no charge of adultery in this case, and in cases of condonation, the two offences of adultery and cruelty were of so distinct a nature, that the same considerations could not be equally appli cable to them. With respect to a condonation of cruelty, by cohabitation, he did not think that.it would always amount to a legal condonation : the question then, was, could the pre sumption of cohabitation working a condonation, be rebutted by other circumstances? He had been anxious to find some autho rity on this point, but he believed none could be found. In the ease of Lord and Lady Westmeath the condonation by cohabita tion was admitted, awl the only question was whether the an tecedent cruelty was renewed by subsequent acts of the same nature. The judgment of Sir J. Nichol, in the case of" D'Agui lar v. D'Aguilar," had rather a closer bearing on the present case. The doctrine laid down by Lord Stowell was, that the extent of endurance of cruelty by the wife, was not only not to bar her of her remedy by pursuing her suit, but raises no pre sumption against the truth of her complaint. In the case he had just cited there was an extorted return to cohabitation, as far as a dwelling together in the same house, but not attended by connubial intercourse, and therefore was not in the usual sense of the term, a complete forgiveness. Yet Lord Stowell thought it necessary to show that the cruelty committed prior to the return to cohabitation was renewed by the acts of cruelty subser i uently committed. The case of Popkins v. Popkins was of still more im portance, as in that case a con tinuance of the cohabita• tion after the acts of cruelty was not;, decreed fatal to the wife's suit. Lord Stowell expressed his opinion that it was not ne cessary for the wife to withdraw from cohabitation on account of the first acts of cruelty, and thalt her endurance was rather praiseworthy in her than otherwise. But here, in the case last cited, the 3luelty was tarried down to the latest period of the cohabitation; and being al so cruelty of a peculiar nature, it was held to be sufficient. In eases of great cruelty therefore the Court could not deprive the wife of her remedy on account of her having retur aed to cohabitation; it must depend on all the circumstances of each particular case. He was aware of the danger of abanexining general principles, and he had therefore carefully considered the case: he was aware also of the difficulty of defining tb e cases that might consti tute exceptions, and hove much doubt and uncertainty might arise with respect to the= ; but he was conscienti ously convinced, from the peculiar nature of the bond that united the husband to the -wife, and the extraordinary eases that might occur of continues I intercourse under circum stances which no one could aotich .ate, from the power which the husband, in eases of cruelty bad over the wife, and, in many instances, the helplessness of hereon, dition, that the evils which might attend a relaxation of the proces 'dings, would be less than the mischiefs resulting from a rigorou,; enforcement of them. The Court would now proceed to the facie. of the present case. The cruelty c h arge d commenced almost - from the per i o d o e. d of the marriage • and, if the c h arges were tr cc, the violence and inhumanity of Mr. Sno w could scarcely be surpassed. ItNov. _ was alleged that th ose acts of cruelty continued to the 21st of last. It app eare d t h ere had been a partial ex ihabitationsubse • been quently, com menc i ng the 22d Nov. After lega. advice had resorted to ; after Mr. Vance had been in for' wed of the facto, tsf r and after M r . S now b ad promised to abstain. frt. 'm -u ac, vio lence, with a v i ew o f avoiding further scan, Jal, This cohabi tation lasted b ut t h ree days, and during tl sat th. here had been a writte n con f ess i on of. facts charged , Against Air' Snow, ,; , :ad ceased which confessio n h e h a d s i gne d . T he col ebitation the `;sth of November, and Mrs. Snow had been brought home by her brother, dud proteedings had been commenced at the earliest presible period, namely on the 18th e December fol loss mg. Under those cit.( emstanct ait appeared to the Court that Mr. Snow had not given proof that he meant permanently to reform his conduct; considering that and the shortness of the latter cohabitation ; also the nature of the ch-rges, and the fact of the rapid commencement of legal pro ceedings ; but more especially considering that the Court was not sufficiently judicially satisfied that Mrs. Snow's return to the house of her husband would not lead to the renewal, on his part, of the alleged outrages towards her. Con sidering all those circumstances, the Court was of opinion that no bar existed to Mrs. Snow's pursuing her suit. Before pro ceeding to the articles of the libel, one observation seemed ne cessary, which had no reference to the practitioners in that Court, but to the public. It was not to be considered that the Court, in the remarks which it applied to Mr. Snow, had any opinion as to the truth or falsehood of the charges ontained in the libel. They were ex parte charges, and the Court was bound to consider them as true in the present stage of the pro ceedings; but it would be unjust to -Mr. Snow if they were taken as true, except for the purpose of see ing if they were sufficient to form legal ground of complaint. Now, with respect to one particular article, one of the objections raised is a general objection to separate. It was said that a charge at common law could not be preferred in cases of this description. But the Court en tertained considerable doubt how far that objection, even con sidering it feu, ded in fact, with reference to the contents of this article, ought to prevail. When charges came on inci dentally, the Court ought to admit them, for the purpose of their being ultimately decided on, when the Court came to hear evidence on the matter. Looking at every article in this libel it did not appear that the charges were preferred with a view to accuse Mr. Snow criminally as at any part of hisconduct. The Court, therefore, would not admit those objections. As to the particular object ions, it appeared thatthe objection to the 6th ar ticle was wed-founded, as that article merely referred to a few harsh words from Mr. Snow to hissei:J. The 7th article was not objected to. The Bth article also onlfraf erred to words, and the objection to it must be allowedas v Aid. The objection to the 9th article admitted of some observation. In that article it was stated that Mr. Snow, on leaving his wife on one occasion, used words to the effect of expressing a wish to find Mrs. Snow and her boy laid out—meaning thereby a desire to find them dead. That article he considered as admissible. The 10th article referred to offensive language on the part of Mr. Snow, when he told his wife that he married but to pet into her circle of society, &c. In a suit at law, instituted on account of cruelty alone; it did not appear to the Court that such chaiges had any bearing on the case, and that article should therefore be struck out. Ar ticles 11, 12, 13, and 14 w e r e no t o bj ec t e d t o. Th e 15 t h article was bjected to, but the otjection must be rejected. The 16th was not objected to. With respect to the 17th arti cle, to which objection had been made, the latter part of it appeared unnecessary, and must therefore be struck out. The 18th article was admissible. The 19th article, referring to coarse and insulting messages sent by Mr. Snow to his wile, in April,lB39, and his refusal to grant her those necessary comforts which she required, when she fell intoa state of illness in consee quence of those messages; all thosepassages must be expunged. The 20th, 21st, 22d, and 23d articles were not objected to. The 24th was generally objected to, but it may remain. The 25th and 26th were not objected to. The 27th required some consideration. In the month of May, 1841, Mr. and Mrs. Snow went to reside at Twickenham, in Middlesex, accom panied by their family, consisting of two girls and two boys. both the girls and one of the boys being in delicate health. It appeared that one of the girls was•labnuring under a flow of blood to the head, for which she had been bled in the jugular vein, and that, contrary to the representations of Mrs. Sr ow, he took the girl in a boat and plunged her into the river. The article must undergo reformation with respect to all these pats ; and by leaving out these facts, the general delicate health of the children may be pleaded, and also that one of them had become seriously ill, and also the declaration of the husband on that occasion with respect to the probable death of his child, because that declaration being made in the presence of Mrs. Snow, consti tuted a charge of a legal nature. But the rest of the article must be expunged. The 28th article, as to the death of the children, was competent to be pleaded, because, as in conse quence the health and spirits of Mrs. Snow became affected. The article was impartial in this point of view, that any future cruelty on the part of Mr. Snow would produce worse effects in consequence of this state of health of Mrs. Snow. The 29th article was of a general nature also. The 30th article was not objected to. To the 31st there was a very slight objection. The 32d, 33d, and 34th articles were not objected to The 35th article he had carefully considered. That was the article which pleaded the long conversation ; and looking to the whole of it, he thought he was bound to admit it. The purpose for which it was pleaded was to obtain something like an admission from Mr. Snow as to the acts of cruelty alleged to have been committed by him. He should leave that article as it was, as the result would be to show, as it now stood, the very qualified admission of misconduct on the part of Mr. Snow. The 36th article was that which gave rise to the judgn:ent he had already pronounced on the merits of the case. It was objected to only on general principles, and not as to the words ; and here he would take the oppor tunity to observe, that in the opinion he delivered as to the ad missibility of the libel, he did, as was suggested by the Learned Counsel, feel himself bound to take in consideration the words of .Ir. Snow, in which he expressed deep regret for his cruel treatment of his wife, and in which he proposed to control his temper. It undoubtedly appeared to him that the language w a s we ll wor th y of consideration, because it made a distinction between the present ease, and the ordinary case of continued cohabitation. He had already pronounced an opinion on the libel as it stood, but if any other evidence appeared different from that pleaded in the Ebel, the- Court would not be precluded from reconsidering the libel. With regard to the 37th and 38th articles, he had before sug gestid what was to be done with them. Dr. HAGGARD said the only thing he wished to know was whether the whole of the last part of the 19th article was to be struck out. Dr. LUSHINGITON read the passage in the article which he intended should be struck out. The Court then proceeded to hear some cases. 1 A' SOLVENT DEBTORS' COURT, March 16. The Court Was occupied during the entire morning in hearing bail cases; of which there was an nnusually large number upon the list, and applications, in which there was not the slightest feature of general interest. MRS. CLOVER,•'PIIE• ACTRE6S. Mrs. Juliana Glover, the well-known actress, of Covent garden and the Haymarket -theatres, applied this morning to be discharged on sureties until her hearing in April. Mr. Commissioner HA KRIS, to the insolvent—What are you? Insolvent—An actress, Sir. The Court inquired i nto the two judgments against her. There was but one detainer on which she was in prison. The bail was then examined respecting their sufficiency, with which the learned Commissioner was satisfied. The in solvent was ordered to be discharged until her hearing, the latter end of April. POLICE INTELLIGENCE. MANSION- HOUSE. The Justice-room was yesterday attended by a great number of commercial men and others, who expected that some of the details connected with the case introduced by Sir Peter Laurie to the notice of the Lord Mayor on the prece-iing day, on the subject of an alleged forgery of the signature of a deceased per son to a promissory note, would be exposed to the public. The statement, made public at the suggestion of Sir Peter Laurie, had evidently excited the greatest curiosity. The case is briefly as follows :—Mr. King and Mr. Tisdell, the executors to the will of Mrs. Ann 'Waldron, represented that Mr. Melton, a solicitor, had, after the death of Mrs. Wal dron, applied to them for payment of a promissory note, of which the following is a copy:— " £39 4s. " London, 15th May, 1841. " Eight months after date, I promise to pay to Mr. William Pidding, or order, the sum of thirty-nine pounds four shillings, for value received. " ANN WALDRON. " Payable No. 7, Hebbus-heath terrace, Limehouse. " Endorsed W. Pidding, J. Sharpe, G. Howell." The executors having re,isted the demand, in the confident belief that the instrument was a. forgery, proceedings were taken by Mr. Melton, who informed them that he was em ployed by Mr. Thompson to recover the amount, and the venue was laid in Lewes. A long conversation ensued between the Magistrates and the parties interested, but it possessed no public interest, and the inquiry was postponed till a future day. BO W-STHEE T. A sturdy-looking man, named Rowett, whose appearance was decidedly foreign, was charged with the following assault:— Thomas Helbourne, the complainant, a young man, who bore evident marks of ill-usage on his face and person, commenced— " I was a going through the court and I meets Mr. Rowett— " Stop, stop," said Mr. TWYPORD, " tell us first who you are, and what court you are alluding to ?" Complainant—l'm a labouring man, Sir, 20 years of age ; Rowett's a shoemaker its the court where he and me lives, Angel-court; well, es I was going up the court I meets Mr. Rowett, he comes up to me and axes me what I had to do with his daughter, I told h;m if his daughter bothered me I'd kick her • he ups with hi s fist, knocks me down, and jumps on my belly, and bi.es a hole in my breast, which (unbuttoning his waistcoat, and exposing a broad hairy chest) I've got it here to show. Mr. TWYFORD—WeII, but have you had anything to say to his daughter ? Complainant—Why, about a fortnight ago I was a going through the street, and whenever I goes thro' the street this here gal calls arter me wherever I goes, and says, " There goes Irish Tom," rich I arnt no Irish at all, 'I he gal she's about fourteen years of age. I told her, if she did not take care, I'd kick her. '1 he prisoner, who, we learnt from his speech was a Welsh. man, and had formerly been in the F division of police, said, " Tat is te trut ; I meet him last night, and I say what tat 'tween you and my daughter tat 3ou say you kick her. He say, Yes, and I'll do to you te same.' He then struck me, and I hit him again in my own defence, and peing te strongest man, I knock him down, but not kick him a pite—pou my word and hon-nare. Mrs Mary . Anne Sales, a comfortable-looking matron, " fst, fair, and forty-five," said she had gone to call upon Mrs. Gibbons, the lady where the poor young wan lodged. She was up stairs in the first pair back, a partakin' of a very nice cup o' green tea and a muffin, with nice salt butter on it, when they heard screams and cries of " murder" proceeding from down below. Mrs. Gibbons says, " I suppose that's Rowett a beatin' his wife again ;" so we went down into the court, and there we see him, his two daughters, and leis wife, all a ill-using the poor fellow, and his hair was standing all on end, " like quills upon the fretful porcupine." They call him Irish Tom, be. cause he lodges with Irish people • but he arnt no Iri s h, h e ' s a west of England lad. It's a dreadful thing, Sir, and wary cruel for the father of a family of children, to hit a young man of twenty years of age, and bite his chest. I'm the mother of a family myself, and I should not like to ace one of my children used in that way, poor things. Mr. HALL imagining, we suppose, that Mrs. Sales had gone on quite long enough, here somewhat abruptly interrupted her by a..kiag the prisoner if he had anything m ore to say ? The gk more, only th a t th e l ast Fitnessprisonerwsaasicnloht in a ecou p l l d ace sa a y t anloittionow nothing a b ou t i t. If n g the Magistrate would look over it this time, such a thing should not occur again. Mr. Twvroen—You did not fight like an Englishman, in a fair way, but you must throw the complainant down, kick him, and kneel on his belly. I should have committed you for as saulting him in a brutal manner, if you had not expressed some penitence at the circumstance; as it is, I shall fine you 75., eir commit you for seven days.— The fine was immediately paid. MARLBORO UG S TR.EE 7. Mr. Alexander Pooley, a builder in a very extensive way of business, was charged with committing a most violent and unprovoked assault on Mr. Thomas Burrows, of Castle-street, Leicester-square, plumber and glazier. 'f he complainant stated that yesterday evening, as h e was passing through Sidney's alley, Leicester-square, he met the defendant, who, with out a word passing between them, flew at him, and struck him a heavy blow on the right ride of the head, and then another on the left. Complainant did not offer to return the blows, but kept his arms down, and told the defendant he would riot fight, as he should take the law of him. The defendant then struck him twice more, and on his getting into Princes street, hit him four times very heavily about the head, and was about following up his attack, when a polic-constable came up and secured him. Mr. MALTBY asked if Mr. Burrows had knowledge of the complainant?—Complainant said he tta dfor merly been engaged in some building speculations with defen dant's father, and that disagreements had arisen through some any - previous money transaction. Tile defendant admitted that he had struck the complain/1 in the m anner described, but urged that he bad received Hies pi °vexati on . Th e t act was h e was walking with his nits , ~,h- D - ile ile met the complainant, oho insulted him by making °. ti site gestures and calling him a robber. The comidon t made apractic e o f abusing and insulting him n henever he him in the streets. The complainant said that he had not spoken to the defend' ant for upwards of a twelvemonth. Air. MA LTBY said that no provocation could justify the sib sault complain e d o f, an d t h at h e s h ou ld t h ere fore in=l"se te highest penalty the law allowed, vie., 6/., or in default of PO' ment two months' imprisonment. . _ THE MARKETS.-( YESTERDAIt The fresh arrivals of grai n h ave be en sm all.
