LONDON IED . N I>DAY MOR SING . JULY 6, 1842. The revenue last quarter and the revenue last year were not flourishing. Because it did not in crease, Sir IL PkiEL has had recourse to an Income tax. The revenue accounts for the present quarter, tlicreire, which will be found ha another part of tier paper, are not calculated to give satisfaction to tlic . Government and the public. The decrease in the Customs on the quarter .7s 426,3951. z the increase on the Excise is 94,7881.; en Stamp, 17,5581. ; on Taxes, 28,543/. ; on the Post • t 1.5,0001. ; and on Miscellaneous, 196,-;22,1.; total, 371,411/. This total,. however, is .54,9841. less than the decrease of the Customs, and this shows the total decrease of the ordi nin'y revenue for the quarter. The extraordinary re woue has increased 28,5571., showing a total decrease • the income in the quarter of 26,4071. The total income. for the year, including ordinary and extraor dinary revenue, is 45,337,4081., and 665,175/. more than last y e ar. ,But it 'includes a large sum "paid in Wit quarter of Sycee silver, and we presume that the in , r*a in the miscellaneous revenue for this quarter, 19:1, 7 ;2 - 21., eonies front a Anilar source. The sugar duties appear to have yielded this year upwards of WO.OOO/. mor'e than last year. Remembering these .;iveumstances, and remembering that last year the revenue wa-s, deficient, awl had not answered the ex retatious of the Chancellor of the Exchequer, we w.v)elutle that the increase in thi:; year is no proof that the revenue is. ds it ought to 1. with an increasing in a state of progTe , ,iN Aligillentat . l4.ll. It would he vvrong:. however. lo ,t ,notiee that the 0 . 4 - !zit dtterease in the tfu.*Ans this (pc , rti , r, is pro- . hohly. owing to the unecrtainty and change introduced 'by the tariff. which have prevented busin,s!,, to a eon .siloralile extent, while it. was in progrc , .s. We may txpect, therefore, that the next quarter, notwithstand in the diminished duties on smite article, then in fv‘c f . ration, will show an increase in the Customili aluo)st equalling the dcer ,, ase in the present quarter. ' On the whole. certainly the revenue has t t ot suffered much as we might have expected from the dNress which prevails among the people. A remark was made at the Lire meeting at Leeds, which may serve to explain this. ',lt was said that the Chancellor of the Ex chequer must not assume an increase in the revenue t be a: sign of prosperity, because a great number of the people hail been obliged to give up the consump tion of meat, a non-exciseable article, and substitute for it tea, coffee, and. sugar, which pay Customs and Excise duties. Such weiremwitanee, probably, serves to explain the present state of the revenue, in conjunc tion with time distressed condition of the people. The Executive Government lixs taken up the con dtr,:t of Colonel DuiNn.ks in a proper spirit. Sir H. HAILPINGE stated last night in the House of Corn monS that the Colonel had failed to absolve himself of the charge of having spoken disrespectfully of her MAJI*ITY, that he had been dismissed from the situa tion of one of her MAJEsTy's Aides-de-Camp, removed frOm the command of the 8:341 Regiment, and placed on half-pay. That seems perfectly 'roper. A servant , of her 'MAJESTY spoke disrespectfully of her, and his superiors have punished him ter his offence. Colo nel DuNDAS, may, we presume, demand to be by a Court Martial if he deems himself uninst'y treated: awl as it is a g ood g eneral rill,: not to dismiss, and certainly nut to punish, an officer without such an investigation, unless he ac .ll6,:.iee in the punishment :is a merciful proceeding, -iv t will cheerfully back the Colonel's demand, if he Marc it. At present, the matter reflects no credit on ,‘ hate er it nuiy do to the Horse Guards. , recision of the Government does not alter our opinion a7= the impropriety of the Legislatxtre reed- ; dlin!,r with the suVi:et. if an officer complain to the How , of COIIIIIIOIIB of the conduct of the Horse Gip rfk. or that ; authority refuse to do justice to an individual It . it notor:ously display a di::4 - ruceltrl partiality, as in the case of Lord CARDIGAN. it is right tbri the House of Commons to bring the H orse Gnardi to a sense of its duty; but it is not. the business of the House of common's so to •:nterfere with the government of the army, or to inquire. on every , rumoured military offence , wheth er th e More Guards hat brought the offender to ;iIfCo(. DUNDAS had gone drunk on parade, would Lord WORSLI:I have thought it necessary to ask whether the Horse Guards meant to dismiss him the service? We think not; and also thinking that the House of Commons has already a great deal more work to do than it can properly perform, we deprecate the un necessary interference by the House—as this obvi ously wa , 4 , because the Horse Guards has done its duty—with the executive authorities. . . There is another aspect of this affair which is not not very croditable. Colonel DlT:inAs did not befool himself at a public dinner, at which reporters were present, so that his conduct was necessarily exposed. The language was used, we believe, at a dinner of the Caledonian Hunt, which is in no sense a public meeting. At private parties it is desirable to check all disrespectful and insolent language.; but we regret to sec that which transpires at such a convivial meeting, made a matter of public investigation and public punishment. It has a tendency to beget a • - stenk of espionnage, to encourage tattle and tale bearing, and we have some' doubts both of the pro priety of ever reporting what may occur at such meetings, and ever making it subject of punish ment. It'breaks in on confidence, and will make men reserved. Even gentlemen find too many means ° f annoying each other, and we therefore shall be slow to encourage exuberant loyalty in seeking its grati fication by holding up. to public censure what is said after dinner. When such conversation is brought before the military - authorities, they cannot avoid entertaining it; but the act of bringing it under their notice is very questionable. It was rather singular to hear some ultra-Liberal, or even Radical,- Members of the House of Commons giving their assent last night to the passing of the Collieries Bill, under the expectation that it would be modified by the House of Lords. Like Con- DETT they seemed inclined to thank GOD we have such ‘7, bode. The fact is, that the phi- I lanthropic zeal of Lord ISIILEY and his friends, and the fear of those who are not fanatical in the cause of spurious humanity lest they should be accused of thwarting the most benevolent of projects, have caused a Bill to be hurried through the House of Commons which will do a great deal of mischief. Lord AstmEr's feelings will be gratified at the ex pense of the people he wishes to serve, awl those who believe that the Bill will do mischief wanted the cou rage seriously to oppose it. We cannot praise them for shunning the performance of a supposed unpopular duty, and throwing it exclusively on the Lords. Mr. AINSWORTH said he had been requested not to press his amendment to a division, and those who are interested in the Bill rely on the Peers* to modify it. There is, therefore, al; under current of legisla lation at work, of which the public only now see the ffects, which sets a law in one direction while it ap peat s to be going in another. Do the Ministers, like the Liberals, look to the Lords to throw out or modify the Bill ? Two of them voted some days ago for delay, and they ought -not to sanction a measure which interferes, as this does, with the supply of labour to the collieries, and perhaps provides for the gradual extinction of the hardy race of men who work in the bowels. of the earth. T 4) tolerate that occupation, to get familiar w ith it.„ dangers betbre there is any knowledge of their extent, it is indispensable that colliers should begin to learn their business very Young. Mr. W. ATTwoon showed that trappers beeamc colliers ; Lord ASHLEY, therefore, prevents young boys from entering the collieries, there is some risk that he will destroy that race of Men. The Ministers are to blame for allowing such a measure to ret , eive the assent of the House without a deliberate inquiry. Had it concerned the imposition of a duty of a farthing a yard on tape, it would have been examined by a Committee ; as it only concerned some three or four hundred thousand of the working classes, it may be carried through the House slap dash. The Ministers have promised it their support, but they, probably,. arc thankful, like the Radicals, that there is a house of Lords to stop this piece of hasty legislation. It is not honourable, bowever, either to them or to the House of Commons, that they pass an imperfect mea sure. in the expectation that the Lords will correct their errors. The meeting of the Delegates assembled at Palace yard yesterday, fully justifies the anticipation that the hostile feeling of the public in reference to the operation of the Corn-laws is nut in the least abated. The Depu tation is already most numerous, while every.hour wit nesses the- -fresh arrival of gentlemen charged to repre sent the depressed condition of every manufacturing interest, and the poignant sufferings of industrious, but now compulsorily idle, multitudes of our fellow-sub jects. The gentlemen now sitting wear an aspect, in Inany respects, wholly different from that which they hare heretofore assumed. On former occasions they appeared to vindicate the righteousness of their claim, and the claim of our national industry to a free com mercial intercourse with the world at large, and rather spoke of evils which they apprehended than of these ac tually experienced ; now, however, they appear to re present, in their own persons and on behalf of their perishing constituents, the frightful and often fatal effects of that policy which before they sought to change. Every ;nun appears on an errand of life and death. The speakers seem too full for utterance. The scenes of ruin from which they have come, and which rise before them in all their horrible features and disorganising tendencies, deprive them alike of the power and inclination to discuss the abstract principle, and force them to speak chiefly of the awful danger which at this moment menaces the safety of the citizens and the most .precious institutions of the country. The speeches of Mr. BLUGUT and Mr. PUNT, so full of just indignation against the callous and deceptive conduct of the Government, were responded • to with a fervour and unanimity which proved that the entire body of the Delegates deem the time come to use a language of remonstrance much stronger than any be tbre employed. Heavy indeed is the responsibility of our rulers Will they awake to duty before it is utterly too late We shall We are surprised to find a Liberal Morning Contow porary advocating the policy of our permanently occu pying ,ItlVhanistan. The must imperfect knowledge of that country—of its immense distance from the seat of our Indian Empire—of the warlike tribes by whom it is inhabited—and of the fierce nations which surround it, 'Ought to open the eyes of any person capable of think ing rightly upon any subject, to the extreme fully—the utter madness of such a proceeding. Talk of the ant . hition of Russia : She is moderation itself compared with It large class of British politicians. 'They think xs .little about swallowing up eastern kingdoms as chat tering monkeys do of cracking as many nuts. While railing against Russia, they would tirt take Atfghan istan, where it would be impossible ever to sheathe the sword. As Lahore and the country of the Sikhs would then "he between us and our Indian territory, another war must be undertaken to dethrone the Sovereign of the. Punjaub, and thus subject to our sway the dominion of the late Maharajah, ITNJEET SIN OH. Commercial pretexts would he set up fur the seizure of Herat ; and thus, supposing success possible, would we have pushed our frontier to the ceutines of Persia, by a series of acts as unprin cipled as ever 'were batched by the Czarina CAT A IN!: 11., for the conquest of the Crimea, or by the Arch duke CONSTANTINE for the prostration of Poland. The whole world is already arrayed against the unceasingly aggressive policy of Great Britain. There is nut a people on the surface of the globe in the smallest degree conversant with our history, who can be persuaded of our sincerity when we profess to make war with no view to extent or territory, but simply to vindif ate our honour. Our Contemporary may make light of this mutter if he pleases, but to us it wears a very serious aspect. It proves, as Dr. CHANNI NG has well remarkcd, that there is something radically wrong in our system of foreign policy. We bare not the art of inspiring confidence and love ; suspicion and fear herald all our approaches even to the aid of our friends. Ilut our Con temporary shall he heard in his own words. We .sub join an extract from his article : ' From the rcriele,d question of our arms in Affghanistan, p tl o te li r e c y c o a l n ti l a li t i e a l i y o to pu purser'(—of on the nature of the a sete.e --of the absolute necessity of our retaining power ever re o gi j o i n which either Russia will mould to the accomplishment _ i f, i 2r own stratagems, or Eng el, facility with which its land must govern in toto. ,eeur r ed ! . mili tary re-conquest is to be through the Kki) her, the favourable change which the character is aburiOant e vidence in General Peillock's i riumphaut ra„a "acter of events has taken. ykoizi ' e atgla h nel, in refernce combined with his arrival to the relict' with the movement effected by Geac,„ll.jellalabad, together )oi. than the ' to, Candahar, atilt his vtccess at IL the shoe be atta c ked and carried the enemy siposition without man, are events in illustration that the complete military a single jugation of the whole territory cannot engross m ore"ilitary sub briefest period. and 4hat then the question of the a i liou nical policy to he pursued must be adopted with a decision divergence to plans imperfect, and not containie, 1 . 1 ' 3. 01 ' lO ie an inviolable principle.

The know ledge of this fact has 'been pumh,...ed at an expe nse o thirteen millions sterling of British treasure, and m ore than twenty thousand of British subjecV, whose life-- blood has saturated• its passes, its mountains, and its capital. • The late gallant Col.

ROW Lord KEANE—an officer as distinguished for high mili tary talent, as for bravery—has left On record .his con viction that nothing could be wilder than our whole scheme of invading Caubul, except the attempt to remain in it an hour after the' complete triumph of our arms. .Nor have our reverses in Affghanistan bzen so few or so isolated as to justify us in speaking contemptuously bf the valour of a people among whom we expended nearly as much hard cash as bayonet thrusts and musket-bullets. Let us just enumerate a' few of our reverses, the first twelve of which we find in Col. I)EN:cm's correspond ence : —There Was first CLARKE with his detachment and convoy massacred ; 2d, a similar escort and convoy under a native officer destroyed ; 3d, Clibborn's detachment of 1,100 men nearly Cut in pieces, guns anti all material captured ; 4th, Khelat retaken ; sth, Qucttah besieged ; 6th, defeat at Pushoot; 7th, INl`Gregor's party cut up, and guns captured on the frontier of Bajore ; 3th, Dadurin vested ; 9th, retreat from-Balgbur and Svghan with loss of tents, arms, ammunition, provisions, &c. ; 10th, defeat at Joelgan ; 11th, 2d Cavalry scattered and driven off the fitid, and our retreat from Perwan Hurrah ; 12th, late disaster near .Bagh (in Seinde) repulsed with great loss ; 13th, murder of the British Envoy, and frightful mas sacre at Caubul ; 14th, repulse of General Pommies advanced division in thcKhyber Pass; 15th, recarture of Glaznee, and Massacre of the garrison ; and list of all, the driving back of General England from the Khyber to Quettah, whet e he remained till commanded by General .':101.7 to fight his way to Candahar. All these reveres show what a brave and resolute race we have to deal., with, and that, unlike the indolent castes on the plains of Hindustan, they are not to be conquered by the loss not clone battle only, but of twenty. The Aiighans, like ourselves, know not when they are beaten ; and peace ably to rule their country would be, in fact, to desolate it by the sword. Having impressed the Aithans with a speedy and a wholesome dread of us, our wisest policy is to abandon their country voluntarily, and at once, and thus secure both their respect and friendship. Having taught them to dread our power, let us show them in what way they can maintain our• friendship and secure our aid. It is faithful, devoted, and vigilant allies, not territory, that we want ou our North-Western Indian frontier. There is an absolute dearth of news in the French journals. An Express from Paris of Monday's date states that a commercial treaty is about to be signed between Fraud aid Belgium, by one article of which Belgian linen and linen .threads are to be ad mitted into France at the rate of duty paid prior to the date of the late 'Royal Ordinance, Belgium agreeing to lower the duties upon French wines. . This will turn our linen trade into a new channel. Instead of supplying France directly with linen, we shall now do so by way cf Belgium. at an increased expense to France. The P/tare de Pyrenees of the 29th June says : " An extraordinary courier arrived at B lbao ' on the 23d, the evening, with orders to Zurbano to proCeed immediately to Catalonia.

The Belgians still hold out for some conces sions on iron ; but the Treaty will probably be signed this week. M. niers has completely lost caste in France. Never was a man more fallen. He is despised by the extreme Liberals, feared by the moderate ones, and hated by the Conservatives. He has not gone, as was reported, to take the waters at Vechy. He has left Paris for Aix, u here his re-election is seriously menace:l by a coalition of the Royalists and Ministerialists. It has been consi rered strange that M. niers has published no mani festo ; but it is now thought he must take the course he wished to avoid—speak out at Aix. M. Odilon Barrot presents himself in some half dozen colleges, includin‘ , one inParis, in opposition to Goneral Jacqueminot. Ai. Barrut's first circulars having been - found flat and unprofitable, he prepared another, but tiiis was too spicy, and it has been withdrawn. The Left party, to which he belongs, and the Left Centre of M. Theirs, will suffer much during the elections, but the Extreme Left (Republicans and Philosophical Rad icals) and the Extreme Right (Royalists) are expected to gain. The Paris correspondent of the Gazette of Upper Germany states, that the King of the French lately ex pressed himself in the following terms, when speaking of M. de Lamartine :—"I thank God for having pre served for the conclusion of my life, which has been so agitated, so noble and so pure a character as M. de La martine, for he is not only. a Minister, but a Minister calculated to promote the prosperity of France." These words were repeated by a Minister in a political saloon. Telegraphic despatches from Bayonne of the 2d inst. bring advices from Madrid of the27th ult., on which day the Spanish Ministry had withdrawn the project of law relative to the provincial deputations. A second despatch, of the 28th, announces that the Congress had voted the Bill fixing the effective of the Spanish army at 130,000 (90,000 effective and - 40,000 reserve) by a majority of 60 against 22. The Madrid Gazette publishes a circular of the Mi nister of Marine to his subordinates, in which he proinises to place the military navy of Spain on.a respectable foot ing, which would enable it to afford au efficacious protec tionto her transatlantic possessions. The Barcelona Constrincional of the 27th ult. states, that live Cario-Christino bandits having been captured by the National. Guard of Eseala, three who had been taken with arms in their hands, were immediately shot, and the two, others were transferred to the competent authorities.

Leipsic Gazette publishes a prirate letter from the frontiers of Italy, stating that arrests had been made lately at Pisa, in the kingdom of Naples. and in the Pun. titical States. Although numerous bodies of troops are quartered throughout the peninsula, symptoms of serious disturbances manifest themselves on all points. The Swiss troops at Naples inspire no fear. Our accounts froiu Beyikatt are of the 10th uit. An apprehension was entertained that a general rising would shortly "take place in the mountain. On the Bth Emir Abdalla, with his two sons, sought refuge on board an English frigate. On the 9th the Seraskierallustapha and-Izzet Pasha waited in person on Colonel Rose, to demand the surrender of the Ewir. The Colonel re turned a formal refusal. The Paeha, said that they would carry him off by force. The Colonel replied, pointing at the frigate, •• He is there ; take him if you can." On the 10th, twelve Sheiks retired on board the same frigate, haviug been informed that they would be arrested in the course of the day..

The Herald has the following sensible remarks on the late attack on the Queen We regret to :observe the almost universally-excited comment which Sunday's outrage on her Majesty has provoked, because we feel convinced that the edi torial silence of the press would have a much more wholesome effect on such occasions—if we are to have a constant sums s'on of these criminal and brutal offences—than overwrought expressions of jut.t indignation and general loyalty. There is wisdom, we are certain, in si'ence about these attacks, and the less the public know about the details of, and the smaller comment there is made on these crimes, the greater safety is there for Queen Victoria, whom God long bless and preserve to reign over a people who are satisfied with her ruse, and who honour and respect her personally. Depraved minds are ever on the al srt to discover how they shall most easily obtain bad notoriety ; and the elevation of these insults into the promi nent topic of passing discussion stimulates, if it does not beget, other treasonable assaults."

It. certainty appears to be a legitimate subject for their interference, inasmuch as the serious fall which occurred in consequence of the report, to a great extentcompromises the character of the Government. It is said that the decision ar rived at by the Committee of the Stock Exchange was at least very hasty, and that every bargain made in the morning thould have been thoroughly sifted in order to ascertain if any im proper use had been made of the informatiun. It is to be hoped that the South American Committee will take the matter up. The inf rotation from Ceylon is rather discouraging. As a last resource for the revival of the cinnamon trade, another Me morial had been prepared, requesting that the export duty might be abolished ; how tar that may bring relief appears problema tical. The low prices at present obtainable here being solely attributable to the large stock, the•nucleus of which was formed when the article was a Government monopoly, by the cultiva tion being forced to an extent far beyond the demand. In ad dition to this tact, the unsettled stale of Spain, and partial ces sation of mining operations in South America, have caused the orders for exportation, in which the bulk of consumption con sisted, materially to fall off. One reason upon which the trier- chants there very strongly dwell, is the increased production in Java, and other places in that neighbourhood under'the &minion or the Dutch, but it seems ditfkult to reconcile the idea that relaxing the duty would cause other countries to cease the cultivation of the plarii. It is observable that certain parties in Ceylon are making great exertions to extend the growth of coffee and sugar, and expe.ience has shown that the so,l of the island is admirably adapted fur both. The demand for the former article is daily increasing here, and it now goes far to sup ply the deficiency between the production of the West Indies and the consumption of the Kinguom. The alteration in the duty made by the tariff, the abolition of the system of importing foreign by way of the Cape of Good Hope, will further increase the necessity for colonial, since it would seem that it would be more advantageous to turn attention to articles in increasing consumption than to such as are evidently going out of use, as is the case with cinnamon.

" THE RAPE or TILE Locx."—A young woman, apparently a decent servant girl, on Friday, applied to Mr. Rolston for a summons against a hair cutter, for. having re eeacted " The Rape of the Lock" on an extended scale. The complainant stated that on the morning of that day she went into a hairdresser's shop. accom: , anied by a boy whose hair had to be dressed. When the man of perfumes had finished the operation, he politely requested that hr mieht have the pleasure of dressing the young lady's hair also ; and she consented, on the understanding that her hair, of the beauty of whieh she was doubtless proud, should not be at all shortened. This pr oviso was promptly agreed to, and the gentleman -commenced his self-imposed task. Presently, however,. the girl became sen sible that a large portion of her hinder hair, about fourteen or sixteen inches in length, had been - dexterously clipped off as with the shears of fate. The girl, who appeared very discon solate at her loss, exhibited the shorn locks to the Magistrate. Mr. Rushton, who could not convert the rape int r a felony, civic which he had summary jurisdiction, told the woe-begone appli cant that he could not grant her a summons, and that her only remedy was by an action at law. The girl did not mention the name of the rascally barber.—Liverpool Times.

RAILWAYS IPI ENGLAND.—The first public railway in England was begun in 1801, and was that insignificant horse track from Croydon to Wandsworth. Others of a similar description gradually followed, hut only 20 Acts of ParliamAst for this purpose were passed in the first CO years of the present century. In the next ten years, from 1820 io 180, there were 49 Railway Bids passed. '1 he extent of English Ilailwa) s . in 1836, was estimated at 840 miles , a nd those in eJnt,mplatt,,n would extend considerably beyond that distance when com pleted. In 1818 there existed in England and Wales, paved streo's and turnpike roads, to the extent of 19,725 mile,; other public! highways. 94,104; ma'tiu2 altogether 114,829 miles.

STOPPAGE Or MILLS AT MANCHESTER.—DIS CHAUGE of •AlEcHANics.--In add tioa to the gloomy re port ref the state Of trade at Mttnehesai:, there is in store a mass of calamity and distr.!ss for a larger number of operatives, who will be thrown out of employment this day, and on Saturday, the 16th instant, than per haps were ever deprived of work in the same period. It is now ascertained' that the entire machinery in the extensive mill occupied by Mr. diehard Roberts will all cease to be worked on Saturday (this day), and that the Hanover mills will be in the same position either to-day or next Saturday. That a large spinning and weaving establishment in Oxford-road will cause four hundred looms to be laid u:1, and of course spinning machinery to correspond ; that the well-known rirm of Messrs. Sharp, Roberts, and Co., the celebrated machine and locomotive engine makers, have discharged and have given notice to between two and three hundred hands that their services will not be required after the ensuing week. Should, therelre, two of these-concerns cease work ing altogether, and the remaining two curtail their pro ductions to the extent reported, there will be no fewer then 1,500 additional hands, to say nothing . of the num bers of women and children d. pending on the heads of families, wins will be involved in the calamity. There need not a - word be said to prove how the distress of the country-is extending, and extending too among a class of men who have hitherto absolutely felt nothing, either hs the reduction of wages, or in the want of employment, viz., the mechanics engaged its the making of locomotive engines; and if such a tirm as that in question feels it necessary to discharge so great a body of the higher grade of mechanics—a firm that undoubtedly will have orders if any are to be had—what must ba the ruin and stagnation on the eveofoyertaking second and third sate establishments in that line? ance offices are in consequence raising their prices."
