PRICE 71) POLICE INTELLIGENCE. GUILDHALL.—Mr. Jessopp, the Barrister, was summoned by Charles Collier, the driver of the hackney coach, No. 830. Collier saii , ll)e took the g en tl onian an d hi s f am i ly, altogeter eight individuals,Some to Clifford's Inn from Covent Garden Theatre on the night of the sth instant. He demanded ss. as his fare, charging Is. for distance, and Is. each for the additional persons above four. Mr. Jessopp said the right of the coachman to the Is. for each person above four, he certainly was ignorant of until he looked into the law upon the subject. 'Upon leaving the Theatre on the night in question, he found the rain pouring in torrents ; he called the complainant's coach, and was about to call another, observ ing to Collier, " Your coach cannot hold us all ;" but the latter prevented him by saving, " Oh, yes, Sir, I can manage them all." :'even got into the coach, and he (Mr. J.) mounted the box, and got drenched with the rain. Mr. Alderman Key decided, that the ce,aehman was entitled to be paid ls. for every additional person above four adults; but he was entitled to nothing for Mr. Jcssopp's ride upon the box. Mr. J. paid the fare and costs, amounting, together, to 9s. 6d. MARL I3OIIO I7GII-STREET.—L as t evening a young man of respectable appearance, named James Buller, was charged with swindling. Mr. Mackay, of 16, Queen-street, Solw, stated, that on Satur day week the prisoner came to his shop, and ordered a pearl brooch, value two guineas, and a pearl ring, value sixteen shil ling, for his employer, Mr. Ward, of No. 1, Wardour-street, and witness let the prisoner have the articles, under the impression that he was still in the service of Mr. Ward, whom he was in tke habit of supplying. Mr. Ward said that the prisoner had been in his service some time, hut he WAS discharged two months since. It was intimated that there were several other charges of a similar nature to be preferred against the prisoner, and he was therefore remanded. Mr. Mackay then informed the Magistrate, that on Monday evening he went to the Harp Tavern, in Russell-street, Drury lane, accompanied by Scholefield, an officer of this office, and Mr. Ward, in search of the prisoner. Scholefield told the landlady the purport of his visit, who immediately exclaimed—" You rascally informers, I am not going to let you in," and a stout man who was present gave Scholefield a violent push, which made him fall back wards, and cut his thumb severely. He, however, recovered him self, and produced his authority, as a peace officer; upon which the landlady said that the Marlborough -street officers had nothing to do with her house. Mr. CONA NT asked Scholeficld if Bishop, the Police Officer, was in the house at the time ? Scholefield said he could not say that he was. " Because," said Mr. Conant, "if Bishop was there, and allowed such behaviour to he carried on, he ought not to be an officer a moment longer." Mr. Conant added, that Sir Richard Birnie should be informed of the whole transaction, and the landlord should be summoned for having his house open at an improper hour. -©7\ I.tk:tirrirTr, 5.C....UP-,.,a0 .', C L 'llft ..... 2,,, ..ii.... v. ‹ , ,TY .

TO BE SOLD BY PUBLIC ROUP, Within Gibson's Sale ROOM, Princes -street, Edinburgh, upon Tuesday, the 17th day' of April, 1827, at Two o'clock in the afternoon, unless previously so ld b y pr i va t e b arga i n , THE LANDS and ESTATE of LYNDALE, in SKYE.—This very desirable and beautiful Highland Property is of great extent, and has always been noted fur the richness of its pasture, and for the superior stock of cattle and sheep reared upon it. About 600 acres of the Estate are arable in good condition, and capable of raising any crops known in that Country. The Mansion house is fit to accommodate a respectable Family. It is delightully situated within a few hundred yards of the sea coast (with an intervening lawn), fronting a picturesque bay, Nvhichaffords capital anchorage, and in which are studded several much-admired islands, contributing remarkable beauty to the scenery. There are thriving plantations about the Mansion-house, which is one of ; the most desirable residences in the Ilighlauds. A large garden and office .honses in complete order adjoin the Mansion-house. j This Estate is full of game, including grouse, black cock, snipe, partridge, &c. ; and the shores abound in every variety of sea fowl. The bay affords, in abundance, white fish of almost every description, besides shell-fish on the shores, and salmon trout, &c. The roads are excellent, and the post-office at a convenient dis tance. Besides which, the communication by regular steam packets with the South will greatly add to the advantage of the , situation. No Highland Estata has been in the market for some time which combines more advantage e, and which ie so highly suscepti ble of improvement, and so well calculated to afford large returns for judicious expenditure upon it. A great part of the Lands are in the natural possession of the Proprietor, but the Rental has been estimated at above 8001. Further particulars will be commnnicated by Claud Ru,sell and Thomas Mansfield, Esquires, Accountants in Edinburgh, who have authority to conclude a private bargain ; or by Hugh Mac queen, W.S., 61, Great King's Street, Edinburgh, who will exhibit the titles ; or by John Edwards, Solicitor, in Iverness.

SUGAR.-The Sugar Market last week was in a very languid state; the few sales of Musrovadea were at prices a shade lower, as usual in a heavy Market, but no general reduction in the prices could be stated. The Mauritius Sugar at the public sales went off heavily at a• reduction of Is. a Is. 6d. per curt. ; brown SSs. 6d. a 575. ; yellow, 58s. a 625. 6d. The Market opened with a fair prospect of business this morning, the deliveries from the warehouse exceeding the quantity of the corresponding week of last year by 1,300 casks, and the comparative stock being dimi nished to about 2,800 caska more than in 1626. Ikhere was, however, no briskness in the demand. At a late hour the sales were estimated at 800 hhds. ; there was not the slightest al teration in the prices. In the Refined Trade last week the demand for the goods suitable for exportation was considerable. Lumps and Single Loaves rather advanced on account of the demand for crushing and melting; the fine goods were also in short supply, although the wholesale grocers did not purchase on an extensive scale, yet high prices were realised. Molasses are unvaried. There was no alteration in the Market this forenoon. In Foreign or East India Sugars few purchases are lately reported. COFFEL—After the day of our publication (Tuesday), last week, there was a complete stagnation in the Coffee Market ; no public sales were brought forward, and the purchases by private contract were also suspended till towards the close, when some good ordinary Brazil was reported to be sold at 505., and fine or dinary at 51s. ; it was also stated, 503. 6d. was relnsed for fair quality St. Domingo. The public sale this forenoon, 1,254. bags Brazil went off with much briskness, and at rather high prices ; ordinary 475. a 495. ; good ordinary coloury nearly fine ordinary 50s. Gd. a Ms. Gd. Since the sale about 1,000 bags of what was taken in has been placed at India House sale prices, and the whole would be taken, but the holders are asking rather higher prices. The pur chases by private contract for the week ending last night inclu sive consist of 100 St. Vincent's 7Y. good fair ; 100 Egyptian 74. ordinary, duty paid ; 500 Bengal at fid. a Sid. ; 100 Su rat qd., in bond. SALTPETRE.-There appears to be a considerable increase in the demand for Saltpetre ; but on account of the reduced stock, the holders evince no inclination to sell. By Public Sale yester day, 501 bags all sold at 245. ; the refraction Sid. per cent, TEA.-The diminished quantity of Green Tea in the declara tion, compared with last sale, has caused a great demand for Twankays and connnon Hyson, the former bear the latter full 2d. per lb. advance on the late prices. Rum, BRANDY, AND flottiogns.—The sales of Rum are in considerable ; some small parcels of Leesvards have been sold ; proofs at 2s. 81d., and five ovcr at 2s. 9d., and generally the mar ket is a shade lower for Leewards ; Jamaica Ruins of fine qua lity fully support the last prices, 26 over sold at 3s. 6d., and 30 and 31 at 3s. 9d. ; the low strengths offer cheap in proportion. Old Brandies fully support the late quotations; the new are offered on rather lower terms. In Geneva there is no material alteration. Rter.—A considerable parcel of Carolina Rice was sold. At a public sale yesterday a parcel of mid. White Bengal Rice sold at 145., but it cannot be given as the general price of the market. SPlCYS.—Spices are neglected, and the purchases lately re ported by private contract arc quite inconsiderable. By public sale yesterday, Cinnamon 609 bales 41 chests, Ist, 6s. 10(1. a 7s. Id. ; 2(1, ss. gd. a ss. 10d. ; Nutmegs 40 casks good quality, 3s. 9d. a Ss. lid. ; Mace 16 casks, the best on sale, ss. 6d. a Sc. 7d. ; Cassia Lignea, 200 chests, 51. 14s. a Si. 15s. ; Pepper 252 bags, good light, 3d. a 3d. The Nutmegs sold high, but at very uneven prices; all the other Spices at lower rates. Ons.—The market has rather a heavy appearance, and Green land Oil is a shade lower ; Sperm is in demand ; in other Oils there is no alteration. HEMP, FLAX, AND TALLow.—The Tallow market attracts great attention tioin the very large contracts that have been ma d e for Tallow about this date ; as a general opinion prevailed that the sellers in these times bargains were able to deliver, and which the buyers were unable to take and pay for, the market has been very heavy, and some contracts aro reported to be settled at 375. 9d., but this was not a general quotation. In Hemp and Flax there is little variation. INnmo.—The extensive sale, consisting of above 7,000 chests, commenced this morning—the good Is. 3d. to Is. 9d., and the fine Is. to Is. 6d. above the last sale prices; the whole appeared to go off with briskness. FRUIT.—The market remains without supplies of new Cur rants. Figs are scarce and very few parcels offer except at a further advance, which the trade appear unwilling to submit to. IRISH PROVISION S.—Beef still maintains the high prices, And the latest purchases are at rates a shade higher, on account of the small supply and the report of the small quantity made. Pork is heavy and rather lower. Bacon is little varied. Fine Butters are particularly scarce and rate high. Sim—The Silk trade appears reviving ; the holders of Bengal Silk of last sale are now demanding a small premium. Touncco.—At a public sale on Thursday, of 35 hhds. Leaf and Stemmed Virginia sea-damaged Tobacco, the whole (with the exception of 3 hhds.) sold to the trade at very high prices ; the Leaf, one lot, sold at 101. for export, and one at 111. sg. ; the remainder from 111. 15s. to 16/. 59. per hbd ;. Strips from 14/. to 18/., one lot sold at 20/., and another at 22/. 5 8 . t o the trade. THE MARKETS. / ( ,g 1 Ity I - No. 10,719. ST. THOMAS'S HOSPITAL. IMPORTANT IF' YitACT="mmitii.k. Extracts from a LETTER to the Right Honourable the Earl of LIVERPOOL, clearly and distinctly chewing that the burdens of the country may be lightened fifty-two millions annually ; and neither landholder, placeholder, nor fundholder be injured, but that all classes of the community, from the peer to the peasant, will be essentially benefited ; by a MEMBER or Inc MERCHANT COMPANY OF EDINBURGH..—JOIIII Anderson, Jun. Edinburgh; and Simpkin and Marshall, London, 1827, MY Loan, I am totally at a loss how to introduce myself, or my hureeble ideas, to the notice of your Lordship ; but having been, in my early life, engaged in agricultural pursuits, afterwards in mercan tile concerns, both in this northern metropolis and in London, and latterly been a collector of taxes in Scotland for thirteen years; aud, having been long impressed with the notion, that a change in the Financial System of the country might be attended with beneficial effects—and my thirteen years' public life convincing me, by the increasing difficulty, of the ultimate impossibility of collecting that portion of the revenue—l have for some time di- rected my attention to the subject : and, after much labour and intense application, I flatter myself I have been eneceasful in dis covering the foundation of a system, which, if acted on, would re lieve the whole community of the burdens which have ea long I and so grievously oppressed them—and that, too, without eventudy sacrificing the interests of any one portion of it. The principle upon which the following suggestions are founded, is that of placing the country upon the footing on which it was in the year 1790, before the expensive war in which we have since been engaged, had, by increasing our national debt to so alarming a degree, brought us into a situation from which I have no hesi tation in asserting we can only hope to escape, by a step at once bald, decisive, and prompt. To accomplish this, with equal justice to all parties in the state, each party must submit to an equal sacrifice. It will be seen, however, that, by adopting these suggestions, all will suffer equally, if suffering it can be called;—consequently the sacrifice will be felt by none. The changes which I would humbly submit to your Lord ship, consist of four propositions, each of which would affect separate classes in society particularly, and the whole commu nity generally ; consequently the interest of those directly affected will have to be separately attended to in the sequel. The first proposition would be hailed with universal satisfaction ; the second may be opposed by a class of the community whose in terests may be affected ; the third may be opposed by another in terested class, but by none who oppose the second ; the fourth proposition may be opposed by another party interested, but by none whose interest it is to oppose any of the former ones. Bat if the plan, as a whole, appears to your Lordship to be for the general good of the empire, all the opponents must Pee it in such a light as will induce them most cheerfnlly to submit to such privations or sacrifices as they will be called upon to make ; and, I have no doubt, that a change, founded on principles similar to those I have the honour of submitting, might be carried into effect at the meeting of the Parliament about to he assembled. Ist. Then I propose a total repeal of the Assessed Taxes. I am aware this will be a nominal loss to the revenue of four mil lions, but, at the came time, a relief to the country of more than live millions. When taken, however, in connection with the whole system, it will be found to be merely nominal, as the amount will be made op in a way as ample, and far more satis factory. As this proposal is so simple as to require no elucidae Erna and will be so popular as to meet with no opposition, t shall nut trouble your Lordship upon it any further, than merely to say, that if the whole taxes cannot be repealed at once, the House and Window Duty could be repealed the first year, and the duty or the establishment the second. It being always kept iu view', that, as the major part of the money raised by direct taxes, will reach the Exchequer in the way of indirect taxes, little will be lost to the Revenue; and the tax on the establishment could be levied at no expense by the Excise. 2dly, I propose a reduction of the pay or emolument of every individual whatever receiving money from the Government, whe ther in name of salary, wages, pay, half-pay, pensions, or annuity', or in any manner of way whatever, at a certain rate to be deter mined on ; and, at present, for the sake of going on with any plan, I would propose one and a quarter per cent. on those receiving tender 100/. per annum, and two and a half on all receiving above 100/. ; and this to go on progressively for ten years, conformably to the following scale : Those not exceeding say HXY. Those exceeding 1001., say 1000/. Per Cent. Per Cent. I- in 1827, o n 100/. £1 5 21 in 1827 £2s 0 2. 1828 . 210 5 1828 3 1529 315 7} 1629 —lB3O 5 0 10 1830 ..- lOO 0 - 61 . 1831 7i 1832 7lO lb 1832 _ 150 0 8' 1833 Bl5 17i 1833 10 1831 lO 0 20 1834 111 1835 124 1835 So that those receiving 100/. in 1826, would receive in the year 1836, 87/. 10s. ; and those receiving 1000/. per annum in 1826, would receive in 1836, 7501. That no alteration should be made on those scales for the ten years, and no ap peel be received from any quarter against it; but, after the lapse of ten years, the operation of the whole plan might be in vestigated, and any person finding himself aggrieved, allowed to petition the Treasury, or either of the Houses of Parlia ment, to have the above reduction stopped, and even to get an increase ; but in all eases where the salary, pay, pension, or annuity, has trebled or doubled since the year 1790, the scale of reduction shall not stop at the end of ten years, but shall go on till -the increased salary, pay, or pension, shall come dovrei to the same sum that was paid at or previous to that year. I doubt not but some will say, that part of their pay or property has c at. of Parliament.beentikefrc,n Aithetimo,ngwh some may hiehwasgu o a b r jet a e ntee t si o t o them by h reduction ; wh en I l oc k aroun d me and observe our b e loved Kin o g for one mo remitting thousand on thousand I t v o_ e th n e l s s ta ce rv t i i i m i e g g i re nh a tit t an m ts in o i f o t e l r ie s manufacturing districts; and, h of state, and nobility of the land, follow the Royal example ; and in in de Y d se t l a f, rs, or generous of whole regiments subscribing those again, followed by every class pri vatesundaer,tihn_tyles,:imicte)ds,osthiwt3n,aoltifoevttihlaieteectaisheemidistress ts to think ilj t iig i t i ,e e ks tetonbuianitint any yr ; ;.— t n h e e l r o e cf b ao y Ti f ir , o r nt o o v ba h ll i el g o-Imv soldiers, would object to this reduction, far less that the more en- - lightened ministers of state, or judges of the land, would raise feelings of those classes of the commonwealth, and that it is found andtakes that i t their voice against it. Should in:lol li c a goine:eirdmne i mrsatit ni k otennes, that they would still object, I ask, what real right they have to e e c n ia y te ou d r c L u o rr r en dsl c i y ip , that ta th b_ e estab lishments s e i ' i e m ry en l tastrogweaeprserosuipnod raisedr t i a o n n idn o immensef irio ot i l ls r tehqyile t c : a m e t p e l , a l i i n n ? a depreciated that, by adopting the proposed suggeetions, the currency will be restored n st e a e te o ; f and etnk gaa that,that edepreciationm e engagements tl wtre ;e consequently, aonnd their incomes, though reduced in amount, will go as far as for merly,—there cnn be no ground of complaint whatever, particu larly as they will be henefitted by the other proposals. In short, when the price of corn and government duties are assimilated to those of 1790, no individual, public or private, has a right to ex pect that his pay or salary shall go farther than at that period. This proposal, if adopted, will save an immense sum to the state the first year—double the amount the second year—and, in the tenth year, as far as I have been able to calculate, 8,000,000/. ; Taxes— which the poor cannot pay—which opp ress and irritate th e being double the mitt produce of the w h o l e Assessed m iddling classca—and which those who are able, pay with dis setisfaction ; after having enjoyed a period of twelve years of peace ; and, consequently, having expected, long ere this, a relief from so heavy a burden. it will be noticed, on the whole, 3d, This brings me to the third proposal. Having, in the first f be f„ m r a m de illions to his Majesty's subjects ; proposition, shewri that a loss of four millions will be sustained Majesty's servants ‘.

Every one must admit, that the subject now to be treated of, is delicate, difficult, and intricate,_l mean the Corn Laws,—on which so much has been said, both in and out of Parliament, that it is unnecessary for almost any human being to c ;l in tl g ter o e f for t e he pro e c ig e h ed t , attempt saying any thing that has not been Paid already. With out further preface, therefore, I would humbly propose the imme diate and permanent opening of the ports, for the admission of all kinds of grain, on the following scale of duty, for the next ten years, viz.
