LONDON, TUESDAY, APRIL 16, 1861 Mr. GLADSTONE'S Financial Statement, the right hon. gentleman himself spoke of last evening as a wilderness of details or figures. Mr. BERNAL OSBORNE, referring to that remark shortly after wards, eulogised the Chancellor of the Exchequer's enormous and elaborate Budget speech of yester day as, on the contrary, " nothing but a garden of flowers." Without reiterating or adopting in its completeness that graceful compliment, we should be ungrateful indeed were we not upon the instant to admit that, while the Financial Statement of last evening was necessarily, as all Financial State ments must be, precisely as Mr. GLADSTONE him self described it—namely, as altogether really and truly little better than a wilderness—it is never theless a wilderness that is just for once not by any means thinly sprinkled over with flowers; on the contrary, bearing here and there flowers in affluent abundance. Let us now for one moment—to begin with—cull a nosegay from Mr. GLADSTONE'S wil derness ! We can promise it shall be, in every imaginable way, most agreeable to contemplate. Our Chancellor of the Exchequer, then—to give the fairest flower of all, and to select it as the cen tral point or cynosure of our bouquet—calculates that there will be a surplus, a clear, bona fide surplus, not as was dimly anticipated of one million, but of very nearly two millions, of £1,923,000, an excess (to that extent during the next financial year) of the estimated re venue over the estimated expenditure. This, re member ! notwithstanding the estimates of revenue (previously explained by him with all his inimitable lucidity) constitute, as he himself acknowledges, "if not the largest, certainly one of the largest" ever presented during a time of peace to the con sideration of Parliament. The revenue, in fact, for 1861-1862 Mr. GLADSTONE puts down at the appalling sum of L 71,823,090. But, as he imme diately afterwards indicates, the total amount of the estimated expenditure during the same financial twelvemonth will not be in excess of the sum of £69,900,000, the result follows manifestly enough according to CocIER that there will be (relying, of course, upon the accuracy of these calculations) a distinct balance in our favour of—as already inti mated, not one million only, but 0f—£1,923,000. Now upon the very face of it, oar system of taxation has already grown to bo one of such enormity, our expenditure has continued to be during a lengthened period so increasingly excessive, that the time has long since gone by when any Chan cellor of the Exchequer could be allowed to carry over a difference like that the next leaf turned in the national account book. So soon as our financier can announce a surplus of any real magnitude, it is at once incumbent upon him to announce also a reduc tion in those taxes notoriously pressing the most heavily and vexatiously on the community. Hence, no sooner has Mr. GLADSTONE intimated the plea- Cant tidings that he is now locking for ;lard to a surplus of revenue over expenditure amounting to nearly two millions sterling, to £1,923.000, than he hastens to explain how it i; that he proposes to deal with that surplus—in regard to what taxes he now proposes any diminution. Instead of remit ting or mitigating the duty upon tea (a duty of more than 100 per cent.), instead of adventuring upon the like coarse in regard to the duty upon sugar (a duty of over 50 per cent.)—Mr. GLADSTONE, in point of fact, proposes now to remit the tenth penny upon the Income tax and to repeal the Paper Duty altogether Towards the aggregate of the estimated revenue of this next Financial Twelvemonth—an estimated revenue, as we have seen, of £71,823,000—the In come Tax (already expired) and the Tea and Sugar Duties (the act for levying which will expire on the 30th of June), are estimated as contributing, if renewed, a sum amounting in all to fully £22,000,000. The Tea and Sugar Duties, our Financier still sug gests, shall, for another year, be wrung out of the Pockets of the consumer. The Income Tax he also 13, ro poses to co n ti nue f or , a t any rate, one other twell ' a raonth, hut at the reduced rates of ninepence (haste a - or tenpence) in the pound, on incomes above £ls ° a-year, and of sixpence (instead of sevenpence) in the pound, upon incomes below that amount. Each - a4 the c ountry PQnn e ,-- y upcn th e i ncome tax yield by Vois ti me to its cost, l earn t f u ll we ll som e has, remi , ision of th e tenth and where a b out £1,100,000, the (affecting, seventh penny will ecting, as it can only do the concluding three fe urths of the twelvemonth), less en the surplus by X 850,000. Adding to this remission of £850,000 under the head of Income Tax, the total repeal of the Paper Duties—not immediately, not even on the 16th of August, as was proposed last session, but merely from the Ist' day of October —the esti- mated surplus will be still further reduced by an r 4 dditional remission, after all reductions have been ullowcd [such as the reduction by X 15,009, for example, upon the vote for stationery, or the reduc tion by £lO,OOO upon establishment charges for the half-year], the estimated surplus will be thereb further reduced by £665,000 net loss on the repeal of the paper duties, dating that repeal, as we have seen and remarked, simply from the Ist of October. By yielding up thus altogether £1,515,000 — namely £665,000 by the abolition of the paper duty, and £850,000 by the penny deducted from the Income Tax—the estimated surplus upon the year, originally set down at £1,923,000, will be so far reduced that there will remain only a moderate residue of surplus upon the financial twelvemonth of less than half a million, or just £408,000. So that, according to this scheme of arrangement, the balance-sheet of the nation f0r . 1861-1862 will s h ow , as opposed to our estimated expenditure of £69,900,000, an estimated revenue, not of £71,823,000, but of £70,308,000. The nation holding still within its grasp at the end of the year a balance of £408,000 over and above its still enor mous though diminished e x p en dit ure , a net surp l us of nearly half a million out of an estimated revenue (wisely, of course,) still more considerable. Who shall say that Mr. GLADSTONE'S proposi tions in this remarkable Budget Speech, in what we cannot but regard dispassionately, as (when viewed as a whole) this truly admirable and eertainly very masterly financial statement—who shall say that the fiscal and financial propositions of Mr. GLADSTONE are not adroit to the uttermost stretch of adroitness ? None, we may safely aver, in the first instance will venture to assert anything so ridiculous as that the tenth penny upon the In come Tax should be at once frankly remitted, as Mr. GLADSTONE propose? to remit it—in the presence of this estimated surplus upon the year of £1,923,000. A momentary doubt, it is true, may occur to some in respect to the other means adopted by Mr. GLADSTONE for availing himself of that novel advantage of a net surplus upon the year's balance of revenue over expenditure—the repeal of the paper duties from the Ist of October, and the consequent loss of £665,000 upon the half of the financial twelvemonth ! A momentary doubt, we say, may occur to some minds in regard to the reasonableness or the urgency of this particular proposition. Mr. DODSON may go for the remis sion by preference of the hop duties—Mr. HAD FIELD for the diminution of the duty upon fire assurance—Mr. HENNESSY (wonderful sugges tion !) for the equalisation of the duties on coffee and chicory—Mr. BALL for the satisfactory settle ment, at last, of the malt tax—Mr. CAVE for the diminution of the tea and sugar duties simultaneously—a great many, their name being legion, for the dropping, in preference to the paper duty, of another penny upon the income tax ! A bold proposition certainly this last, under the circumstances, seeing that a penny upon the income tax involves the question of £1,100,000 upon the year being swept from the estimated revenue—or at any rate, allowing that the ninth penny, while following the lead of the tenth, its predecessor in remission, be also yielded up only upon three-fourths of the financial twelvemonth, the second penny thus de ducted from the aggregate returns under the income tax involves the notion of sweeping aside close upon another million from the estimated revenue of £71,823,000 thereby running the extreme of hazard of transforming a probable surplus into an almost inevitable deficit. No; let any one dispassionately regard the position in which the country stands, in which the House of Com mons stands, in which for that matter, too, we might even say the House of Lords itself stands (victor though it was, last year, in that all but un constitutional contention between the two great chambers of the legislature) in regard to that question of the paper duty and its repeal—and it is as nearly as anything of this kind can be impossible to do otherwise than admit that in presence of . a still considerable surplus, after having conceded the re mission of a penny—the tenth penny—upon the Income-tax, Mr. GLADSTONE in this matter had really, so to speak, no alternative. The frank and manly course at once followed in respect to this revival of the paper duty repeal this session [it will be allowed under the very different circumstances ! in the presence of a considerable surplus instead of in sight of a formidltble deficit ! accompanying the proposition, moreover, this year with a diminution by one penny, instead of, as last year, with an increase by one penny of the detested Income-tax] -- the frank and manly course in respect to the revival of the paper duties repeal question, followed out last evening by the hon. and learned gentleman the member for Wallingford, has about it, we cannot but think, a very auspicious significance. However this may be—there is the Financial Statement now fully and clearly, and, as a whole, we cannot but think most satisfactorily, placed before the country by the Chancellor of the Exchequer. To pronounce anything like a defini tive opinion upon each and all of its elaborately interwoven and exquisitely complicated details, requires, as a matter of course, from the House, from the country, from the journalist, from the members generally, but especially from those num bered in the ranks of her MAJESTY'S Opposition, a most calm, candid, and deliberate consideration. Already, however, upon the first blush—with not much anticipation in the inner recesses of our judg ment, that, in regard to this particular sectiun of the Budget, second thoughts are likely to be better, or, for that matter, to be in any way different—we hesitate not at once to avow the cordial satisfaction with which we recognise the remissions adventured upon by Mr. GLADSTONE under the encouragement of his estimated surplus of £1,923,000. Referring to the highly beneficial, because directly and appreciably reproductive consequence of reducing gradually our indirect taxes, the right hon. gentle man spoke of those almost magical results as re minding him of VIRGIL'S misletoe, as described by the Sybil— "- Primo avulso non deficit alter Aureus ; et simili frondescit virga metallo." The Sybilline hag adding to this the wholesome advice— "Ergo alto vestiga oculls, et rite, repertani, " Carp© manu." Applying to himself the happy augury latent in the words that follow immediately thereupon, Mr. GLADSTONE might have articulated them with greater force as words applicable to the proposed remission by him of this penny of direct taxation and to the proposed repeal altogether of one of the most vexatious items in our still large and motley scheme of indirect taxation. " -nainque ipso volens facilisque sequetur, Si to fata vocant : aliter, non viribus ullis, Vincere, nec duro poteris convellere ferro." Armed with his trenchant surplus of nearly two millions sterling, there can be little probability that those two golden branches gemince super arbore, which he is now bent upon abstracting, will resist his efforts to tear them away. Ti“! Fates that call him now are obviously more propitious than they were a year ago. And as to the golden boughs themselves—when. abstracted from the parent trunk of our gigantic Upas of Taxation—if in nothing else they will be productive, we may be assured of that, of an im• mense amount of popular satisfaction. One bitter mortification, the first result of seces sion, the Disunited States of America have already witnessed the Spanish flag hoisted on the Island of St' 3)911141 P. But a few years ago Mr, . THE SUN, LONDON. TUESOAT( EVENING. APRIL 16, 1861; IP - Nrti : BUCUANAIV was talking at the Ostend conference of taking possession of Cuba, by purchase or by force, just as Spain might think best. And when in office the same diplomatic filibuster had money voted by Congress to provide for the purchase of Cuba, though the proud but feeble old country repudiated unconditionally the thought of parting with her splendid colonial jewel. Now the tables are com pletely turned. Spain has grown stronger, and the Union, with its "manifest destiny," has split, till no one can conjecture its destiny, and Spain not only retains Cuba, but plants her foot again on the other great island which the Americans were known to covet ; and, in the face of Northern States, Border States, and Gulf States, hoists her flag on the shores on which COLUMBUS landed. As far as is yet known, too, the whole thing has been managed in true Yankee fashion—the fashion in which Texas was actually annexed to the United States, and in which it was desired through LOPEZ and WALKER to annex Cuba, and, ultimately, all Central America too. Spanish emgrants went over in considerable numbers to S t. Domingo, to the part which constitutes, with a population of about 200,000, the Dominican Republic. How far they had really succeeded in rendering this formerly Spanish part of the island willing to submit again to its old masters we cannot yet know ; the negroes were probably taken by surprise ; the emigrants, how ever, succeeded in their project, hoisted the Spanish flag, and proclaimed union with Spain. The po pulation do not seem to have resisted. No vr, resis tance is not out of the question ; the Spaniards did not, like their neighbours north of the Pyrenees, even propose to refer the question to Dominican universal suffrage and the ballot box; they send a few ships of war from Cuba, and some regular troops with them, and of course all the population must acquiesce in Spanish supremacy. What -will be done with the other and much larger part of the island, the Republic of Hayti, with its 800,000 inhabitants formerly belonging to the French, and no doubt still much desired by them, it id not possible yet to say. We are not in the secrets of the Courts and Governments of Paris and Madrid. We can hardly imagine that Louts NAPOLEON will allow Spain to occupy what was, till the wars of the Revolution, a prosperous French colony. If the black republic will not freely accept the Imperial yoke, the yoke must be put on its shoulders, or the suffrage and the ballot box must be made to do the same service as they did for Savoy and Nice. Yet who can tell whether some bargain may not be already made with Spain, by which she is to be allowed quiet possession of the whole island, and France to be aided by some other project, or whether the EMPEROR will offer the Republic of Hayti a French protectorate to save her from the gripe of Spain ! It would certainly gratify France exceedingly to be once more dominant in a noble colony where her troops perished ingloriously, conquered by the climate chiefly, while hostile Albion's then omnipotent fleet prevented the departure of fresh expeditions to their sup port. If Louis NAPOLEON is not to be per mitted to reverse, in the most literal sense, the Defeat at Waterloo, such reversals of defeat as would be implied in .the restoration of French rule in Hayti would no doubt be very pleasant both to him and to France. And France wants colonies, at least so she thinks; from our experience of them we can only wish her joy of them if she gets them. One consideration is most important to England. Under Spanish rule St. Domingo will be a second slave mart equal to that of Cuba. The free blacks there will soon become slaves, and the African trade will be as brisk with the regained colony as 'with the old one. We do not see what ought to be our course of action, unless, indeed we were pre pared to enforce our treaty in respect to Cuba also. In the House of Commons last night, Mr. GLYN expressed his regret that no further portion of the debt due to us from Spain figured among Mr. GLADSTONE'S sources of Revenue. We should suggest to our Foreign Secretary that a vigorous note on the subject might not be without use. In fact Spain is building iron-plated ships with our money, and and we are paying Income-tax to enable her to do it ! We have a mortgage on her acquisitions, which it might not be amiss to foreclose ; and we have ships of war enough, at least, to enforce our claim. GARIBALDI seems to have got into a little hot water through his outspokenness in reply to the address of the working men. He had spoken of the counsels of the country as guided by lackeys, and we understood the bluff soldier to mean that Count CAVOUR and those who acted with him were playing the part of " lackeys" to the French EM PEROR. His language seems, however, to have been interpreted as insulting to the KING, and to the Italian Parliament, which is his ultimate con stitutional adviser. What he had said was noticed in the House with much warmth, but RICASOLI, in a speech which made a great impression, and which seems to have been both warm and eloquent, denied the possibility of GARIDALDI'S intending anything contemptuous to either the KING or the Parliament. An early day was therefore named for the subject to be again brought forward, at which, if the gout permitted, he might be present and state his own views. It would seem that he was still unwell on the day fixed, for he wrote to the House instead of speaking. His letter is an emphatic denial that he could have intended anything insulting to the KING. " His conscience forbade his stooping to self-justifi cation." And he added, "As to the Parliament, my entire life, consecrated to the independence and the liberty of my country, will not permit me to descend to a defence against a charge of disre pect towards the majestic assembly of the repre sentatives of a free people called together to re constitute Italy, and to give her a place among the foremost nations of the world." He strongly re asserted what he had said of the shameful manner in which his brave companions in arms in Southern Italy had been treated by the Government. The disinterested man has always shown the deepest feeling in regard to the treatment of his brave comrades—for himself he would have no thing. He concluded a letter by proposing a bill for a national armament, to be laid before the house according to its rules. He spurned, he said, how eve.r, personal contentions ; no doubt alluding to his known opposition to CAVOUR, which had pro bably called forth the language complained of; and ended with a sentence worthy of himself:—" I trust that all parties in the Chamber will agree to lay aside all useless antagonism, and that the Italian Parliament will lend all the weight of its authority to promote the measures most urgent and necessary for the safety of the country." To-day's telegrams show that GARIBALDI does not confine his censures to those whom he thinks to be lackeys of the Emperor of FRANCE. The CZAR must see from his pen also tne frank praises of serf emancipation, and a malediction against the con summation of the most detestable of critnos. GARIBALDI'S sympthies are like those of English men, they are heartily with all the victims of tyranny, and with those who are struggling for hood= and nationality. MONdI MARKET AND CITY NEWS.

CORNISH 6RANITE. 7 —The pedestal for the eques trian statue of the late King Carlo Alberto has been shipped at Falmouth in the Pride of the Isles, for Genoa en route for Turin. This magnificent specimen of nature and of art is the produce of the parish of Mabe, and consists of three courses of polished fine grit granite, the bottom and top forming rich, but boldly-moulded, base and cornice, and the middle course of plain polished surfaces about four feet high. Each stone has been sunk by great labour out of the solid, so as t) leave a bold projection in the form of a buttress a t e.LII aLglc. When fixed in tho wharf before shipment it had the ap• pearanco of one massive block of polished granite, 261 t. long, 171 t. wide, and 7ft. high. The entire mass consists of but six stones 21ft. long, and six atones 13ft. long, so arranged as to avoid the appearance of any joint. Great admiration was bestowed on the work by these who had the opportunity of seeing it before it was disparted, and no doubt it will attract great attention on reaching its destina tion, where it is to be hoped it will arrive without accident of any kind. THE ALPACAS IN AUSTRALIA.—Those who take an interest in the development of this enterprise will learn with satisfaction that, although Mr. Ledger has nob yet re ceived his proper recompense from the community likely to be directly benefited by his exertions, the animals are fulfilling all the expectations that have been formed respect ing them, both as to their condition and their increase. Upon their arrival at Arthureleigh, a little more than a year ago, the flock numbered 256, several losses having taken place from the want of sufficient food at Liver pool, the animals being generally in a poor condition. From various causes about 30 have died at Arthursleigh ; a large number of these were the oldest llamas and alpacas, and their deaths were no doubt traceable to the effects of the exposure during the long journey in South America and upon the voyage. These losses have, however, been far more than retrieved by the births, which have already brought up the number of the flock to 352. The lambing is now going on; we learn that hitherto it has been extra ordinarily successful, and that before it is competed the flock will probably number nearly 380 animals. Having abundant pasturage and room to ramble, and being also now pretty well acclimatised, they are fast regaining their natural condition, giving full proof of the adap • fation of the climate and the herbage to their healthy propagation. We understand that, among other products which it is intended to forward to the Great Exhibition in London in 1862, there will be not only samples of Aus tralian alpaca wool, but some stuffed alpacas, llamas, and vicunas; and, considering the importance that is attached by the English merchants and manufacturers to this new branch of our productive industry, there is no doubt that these articles will be examined with much intarest.—Sydney Morning Herald. - - It is stated that the Court will leave Paris for Compeigne at the end of the month, and that the Emperor will afterwards visit the camp of Chalons for a fevr.days.

This morning Mrs. Cobbstt made another of her applica tions to the court to grant a writ of habeas on behalf of her husband. The Court informed her that it could not grant her re quest, neither could they assign her any counsel to carry on her applications. If such a course was adopted the wives of the whole of the prisoners in the Queen's Bench would be making similar applications. Mrs. Cobbett said it was a good thing some of them bad wives to make applications for them. As she had been re" fused in that court she should appeal to some of the judges in the other courts. COURT OF COMMON PLEAS. KEMP V. NEVILLE-THE CAMBRIDGE PROCTOR'S CASE. Mr. Hawkins, Q.C., made an application this morning to the court to fix a day for the hearing of the arguments on the cross rules that had been obtained in the two eases Kemp v. Neville and Ebbon v. Neville. The learned judge said it would be much better for the counsel engaged to make some arrangement convenient to all parties, and after that had been done the court could give its assent to such if it met with its approval. COURT OF PROBATE AND DIVORCE. (Before Sir Cresswell Cresswell, Judge Ordinary.) SHEDDON V. PATRICK AND THE ATTORNEY-GENERAL. Miss Sheddon in person, applied for leave to file certain papers to enable counsel to move to-morrow for the post ponement of the motion for a re-hearing of this case. The learned judge said there was no necessity for an? motion for such a purpose, the full court who heard the case would sit on Monday next, when the motion for the re-hearing might be made or not as the applicant pleased, it would be competent then either to make an application for a postponement or leave the matter where it was. Miss Sheddon said she was accidentally too late 'eater* day to lodge the papers for the motion for a postponement to-morrow, and she wished to ask his lordship who eh* ought to cite as Mr. William Patrick has since died. The learned judge said he should give no advice on any such a question. Miss Sheddon said her object was that counsel should make the motion to-morrow, who would then make it more ably than she could. Tho learned judge said, she might rely upon it that no counsel, however clever he might be would extract any ex pression of an opinion out of him ; he had already said the proper time would be to make any application on Monday befot e the full Court. Miss Shedden then withdrew. POLICE .INTBLLIGENCE.—(This Day.) MARLBOROUGH -STREET. ROBBING AN ARTIST AND RIFLE VOLUNTEER:WM Brennan, an artful-looking fellow, was charged before Mr• Tyrwhitt with stealing a gold watch, the property of Mr• Thomas John Gullick, artist and author, and also a mem ber of the Queen's Westminster Rifle Volunteers, residing at 59, Berners-street, Oxford-street. Mr. Gullick said that about four the previous afternoon, while the volunteers were marching. he was standing in 11 doorway in Oxford. street, opposite Wardour-street, when a rush was made towards him, and as he had been once before robbed while going through Temple Bar under similar cir cumstanees, he at once looked to his watch, and found the prisoner's hand on his chain, the watch being nearly out of his pocket. At that moment he was hustled by three or four fellows and he then seized the prisoner. A lady, who was now in court, also complained that she had lost her watch at the same time, and that she believed one of the prisoner's companions had got it, but that he had escaped. These cases were now becoming most annoying, and being a volunteer himself, and these robberies always taking place while they were marching, he felt still more annoyed at it. Mr. Tyrwhitt said he wished the thieves would always meet with people as prompt as prosecutor. A young man employed at a eheesemonger's in Berner. street, gave corroborative evidence. _ _ A constable said he found a watch up the prisoner's sleeve, and which the prisoner tried to dispose of on the way is the station. The prisoner, who is known, was remanded. THAMES. A VALOROUS LINENDRAPER.—Mr. George W. F. 'Tad graft, of No. 221, High•street, Poplar, was brought before Woolrych charged with being drunk and riotous in place called Woodstock-park, near his own house, and threatening to cut a policeman's head off. James Gray, a police. constable, No. 265 K, said he wag passing the house in which the prisoner lived at two o'clock in the morning, and saw the street door wide open. He entered the house for the purpose Or warning the inmateso and to ascertain if there were any thieves within it, and saw the prisoner walking about the room, and in a veil great state of excitement. There were a man and a women in the same room. The prisoner was intoxicated, and upon seeing witness demanded his business, and said " What right have you in this house." He told the prisoner he had seen the door open, and looked in to see who had entered. H e then left the house and went upon his beat. The pri soner followed with a drawn sword in his hand, which, he flourished, and exclaimed in a loud voice, " cut your head off." Mr. Woolrych—Hand me that sword ? The weapon was given to the magistrate, who ex am ined it, and said it was a sword bayonet and a very formidable weapon. The policeman continued—When Mr. Hadgraft said he ho would cut my head off, I said to him "You had better go in doors, sir; you do not know what you are about." Ho replied, " Yes I do—l mean to cut your head off," and then brandished the sword in a threatening manner. I thou took him into custody. Mr. Woolrych—Before he cut your head off, policeman Witness—Yes, sir, I did not like that sword so close t° my neck as it was. The prisoner, in defence, said that he had been drinking' a drop too much, and that if he had not been under th e influence of strong liquors he would not hive acted in the way he had done. Mr. Woolrych said that the prisoner, instead of &WWI and threatening the police-constable, ou g ht t o h ave thanked him for looking after his house and property. The prisoner was much indebted to tho policeman for his forbearanc e ' No harm had been done, but he could not overlook th e gro-s impropriety of the prisoner's conduct. Taking in t° consideration the prisoner's sorrow for what he had done, and that he was under the influence of liquor at the tittle' he should mitigate the penalty to 20s. The fine was instantly paid.
