From the Official Returns of the Revenue for the year and quarter ended the sth instant, it is truly gratifying to find that the income and the -financial condition of the country are in a state of progressive and flourishing prosperity. Not withstanding the large reduction of taxes, the Revenue of the year is only p 630,000 less than that of the year ended sth January 1823, — whilst on the-last quarter, ended the sth instant, there is an increase, as compared with the corresponding quarter of the preceding year, of 9.62,000/.—With diminished taxation, therefore, the income of the country, during the three -nonths last past, has been actually greater than .that during the corresponding period of the for - mer year. It is, however, necessary to point out to our Readers, that under the head " -CELLANEOUS," in the official Abstracts, is in. -cluded the sum of 760,000/. already received on account of the debt due to Great Britain by the Austrian Government ; and as this item does not form a part of the ordinary revenue of the State, the decrease of receipts from taxation, upon -the whole year, strictly speaking, is 1,390,0001.; and for the same reason there is a decrease of receipts from taxation, upon the quarter just ended, to the amountiof 490,0001. ill'', there iS SO great an increase, both in the, whole year and in the quarter, in the productiveness of the Customs, the Staelps, and the Post-Office, as to warrant the expectation of a further large -reduction of taxes in the ensuing session of Parliament. During the last, as compared with the corresponding quarter of the preceding year, , the Customs have increased 447,1071., the Stamps 105,8231., and the Post-Othce 37,0001. The decrease, both in the year and the quarter, has been solely in the Excise and the Assessed Taxes, and has in both been occasioned, not by any natural falling off in -these important branches, :but by the extinction of taxes which .hat been already effected by Parliament.

SECOND DAY. THE PRISONERS' DEFENCE. The Court having met this morning according to adjournment, at nine o'clock, Mr. Justice PARK rose, and said, John Thur tell, the case for the prosecution is now closed, have you any thing. to say, this is the time and moment when you must address your reply to the evidence. THURTELL—My Lord, I have something to say, I should wish to speak to my solicitor. Mr. Justice PAnK—Certainly you shall. After some conversation attendance of honourable men, that he was not the character represented to them, who must have read the infamous slanders of the press. He was accused of an appalling crime—one which, on reflection,would excite the feelings of the most ob durate and hardened heart; but he had been repre sented as divested of those feelings. The heart might feel relief by momentary sorrow ; but if the Jury could dive into his feelings at that moment, he felt convinced that they would pity him ; but if they were to judge of him from the calumnious accounts which had been promulgated, they must Thurtell stood up, and bowing, said, may it conceive that during the last forty years his na please your Lordship, and Gentlemen of the lure had been gradually reversing, and that now Jury, under greater or more appalling dint- it. had arrived at a complete change and lost all her influence ; but there was one who could culties than ever perhaps any man addressed be appealed to who knew to the contrary, himself to your attention, do I stand before you and that it was only the promulgation of t the victim of horrible calumny, to vindicate my hose direct falsehoods that was likely to injure him : to him he trusted, and by his guid character from the foulest charge that could be mice would leave his case, prejudiced as it preferr e d against any man.

Here some noise in the Court occurring, family should now mourn his loss. Mr. Justice Pante said he wished silence could He had been represented by the press as a be preserved. sporting character, and held forth to the world as Thurtell then proceeded—He would now, he one capable of the basest crimes ; but, in this re- said, call the attention of the Jury to the evidence specs the reports had been exaggerated and on the, part of the prosecution, which he observed , was replete with contradiction. Hi' then corn many devoid totally of foundation, and he could menced with the evidence of Mr. Mason, in his assure the Court that he had not witnessed a rellew of it nothing material struck us:—this gentle man, he said, had proved that a party had searched prize fight, a horse race, or a sporting exhibition, for the body, but did not succeed in finding it until during the last three years; but even if it were told by Hunt, and who had a better right to so, he did not conceive that the statement of th e know than those who did the act; for Hunt, Own asked who put it there, said it was be himself.l It was proved in evidence that there was a pond near Probert's house ; would it not have been safer to have put the body there than in a shal low ditch. You have heard that the sack, spade, &c. were purchased ; was it likely that he (Thurtell) was the monster represented ; that. in the room in which he was arrested, the drawers boxes, &c., should be open, and no secrecy ob served, was this undisguised conduct that of a guilty man. There was also another person slept in the room, —was it not probable that his situation should have been discovered by this individual ? He went on making remarks on the evidence of the several witnesses ; but we could not discover any prominent feature of consequence in any of them.] When he arrived at the testimony of Probert, lie said that this man's evidence seemed to be the . only connected chain of evidence produced against him, he had, he said, told some truth to-day, but not before the Magistrates, his (Probert's), evidence in any point affecting him was not corrobo rated by a single witness ; this man and Hunt had both set up their evidence for sale, look at Probert's evidence—and the confession of Hunt before the Magistrates. He was solemnly of opinion that he himself, as well as Weare, had been decoyed to the fatal spot by Probert and Hunt, for destruction. Is it probable that he corn municated to Probert, that he intended to murder Mr. B. Beaumont and Mr. Woods ? certainly not. On his cross-examination P. admitted, that until the confession of Hunt, he did not fix on him as the murderer ; this witness, it was proved, had been committed under the Commission of Bankruptcy 6 or 7 times for perjury. lie then remarked on the inconsistency of Whs. Probert's evidence, when compared with that of her husband. From the evidence of Probert and another, it would appear that he (Thurtell) was fully pre pared for the murder. Clark swore that by the light from the lamps of the coach, when coming to town,that he could distinguish him driving in a gig with another person ; was it at all consistent with reason that on a dark night he could have recog nized my features ? on the contrary, we know that the faint light of a lamp from a coach passile , along would make it even more difficult to discover the features, but it vas well known that when a man tries to prove too much, he generally proves too little. Clark, however, in his evidence, swore that - the gig i n which he was driving was yellow, now this was another impossibility, for the darkness of the night would not permit him to discover tame colour. -- -....,.--- I\r.gf PARK— I do not wish to interrupt you, l bu state facts to would he useless in me to I , t you the Jury whi c h I mus t contra di c t in summing; up .. I t t sti it ce the evidence ; the man did not swear that the colour of the gi g was yellow. Thurtell—lt will not r es t, m y L or d, on m y statemen t alone. He then continued, animad verting on the horrible evidence, and observed, why was not this witness brought before the Coroner or before the Magistrates, if he knew the facts to which he bus sworn. Another circumstance, which in itself was sufficient to disprove Probert's evidence, was the improbability of his leaving Hunt one mile and half distance from his (Probert's house) on a dark night, without having some motive, or without knowing the reason why. Thurtell continued for some time to review the evidence of the other witnesses, but nothing important came out. He went on to say, that he should advise them most seriously to con sider before they gave any opinion of this case, as the British Law, in cases of this kind, re cognized the proof of murder by circumstan tial evidence, and the evidence, he thought, instead of being against him, operated rather in his favour to show he had not committed this crime. Circumstantial evidence was at a ll times of a kind most fearful, and he would show, by a variety of cases, the necessity of most particularly attending to it, as in modern times, we had many lamentable instan ces of the immolation of innocent persons, through the hasty decisions of Juries, there fore he believed, as he hoped they would, that besides many points which were much in his favour, there were more points that did not by any means shew he had any participation in this crime, and as such evidence, by producing a fatal result, was so fearful in its effects, he would sincerely advise them to consider well before they decided. In order to show how often such fatal results had arisen from the undue consideration of cases, he cited several, from the works of Coke, Black stone, and particularly those of Chapman, Brad shaw, and several others who had beers exe cmed for murder on very strong presumptive evidence, yet in some time after it had been ascer tained that they were innocent, and the real mur derers n ere discovered. Voltaire,in his works, had emphatically censured the hasty decisions ofJu ries. When they had deeply considered every thing, he hoped, which he had said and gone through, they would pursue such a course as would jus - I tify them in acquitting him. lie had plainly advanced these facts for their consideration, feeling himself authorised so to do, and lie should now, as he was drawing to a close of his address, tell them that the only course they could safely adopt, would be to return him to his country, i mf his liberty, and Isis family. This he thought they should well consider, as hereafter they would have the blessed consideration that a calumniated and innocent man had been ac quitted by them. There were many points of evidence doubtful, and they were bound to give him the benefit of them ; the law said, no man shall be convicted of murder, but by clear proof, and if any doubts remained, the p r isoner was entitled to the benefit of them. He again repeated his innocence of the murder. He would beg them, nay, implore them to find him not guilty. They well knew that no horie i was left, if th e y f o und him guilty ; and not fo but for his family, for the name of a 3 longl sel line of honourable ancestors, whose characters had passsed down unsullied, and with. out imputation, to the grave, did he implore them to pause upon their verdict. [We have received the foregoing report of this day's proceedings, by four several Expresses from llertford. Should any thing further of import ance arrive, we shall give it in a Second Edition, and we have made arrangements for enabling us to publish the verdict to-night if it k delivered by the jury at Hertford before seven o'clock.] MERCANTILE SHIPPING.

The pri soner was stopped by Nixon and Jones, the offi cers, last night about eleven o'clock, and, from the contradictory stories he told, a suspicion was excited that some burglary had been committed, and that the property in question formed apart of that stolen. He was remanded until Wednes day week to afford time for inquiry. SUICIDE.----An unfortunate gentleman, named CARSON, put a period to his existence on Mon day evening-, at his lodgings in Oxford-road, by a process not generally resorted to—namely, bleeding to death. The deceased was a native of Germany, and was for many years attached to the medical staff of the army. under the command of the late Duke of Brunswick, in whose suit he first visited this country. On the conclusion of the peace, he threw up his appointment, and exercised his profession whenever opportunity served ; but, unfortunately, he had neither friends nor interest to press him - into notice, amid the ta lents of a really clever man were buried in the obscurity of a mean garret that he occupied lu the house of a huckster woman, while their pos sessor pined away in indigence, poverty, and want. Being arrived, it is presumed to the plus ultra of human misery, he applied on Satur day to a foreign gentleman, who had known him abroad, for a trilling pecuniary aid ; but the boon was denied, and he returned home wHi that dreadful resolve which he has s cow so fatally put into execution. About four o'iock on Mon day evening he returned home, and complainiurt of illness, said he should go to bed, and desired. Isis landlady not to disturb him on any account. This good-natured woman, however, thinking he would require a little aliment of some sort, re solved to disobey his mandate ; and in order to let him have some chocolate (his favourite be verage) she opened the door of his room, where he lay weltering in his blood, which was still trickling from the main artery of each arm, which. he had opened, the lancet stili remaining in his right hand. He was then not quite cold. A surgeon was immediately procured, but too late —the vital spark had tied for ever.
