The Trent, West India mail steamship, had been fitted up by Rear-Admiral Super intendent Stewart, at Malta, to carry 450 horses to Turkey. Her upper deck had been housed in, and the lower decks all fitted up with stalls. The Tanning has left Portsmouth for Woolwich to obtain a little repair to her mnchinery.

Australia from Sydney to Melbourne had caused some - dissatisfaction in the former city. There was no other , political news. The following mercantile and money article is ex tracted from the Sydney Morning Gerald of the 20th March :- - ' - - , " The warlike asptct of affairs in Europe, strengtell:94 by the latest - adiices received by the Chu san , mus , as a matter of course, present every difficulty in the way ,of forming a correct opinion as to the prospeoth of our markets of domestic and maritime commerce. From the gold circulars which we . published •to-day -(s a t ur diry; we learn that the alteration which our banks ilusiv made in the • rate of exchange has caused ' th e gold-market to rise in the same proportion. -Tnie price of gold during the past week has been quoted as fol. _ lows :-New South Wales, 3/. 17s. to Si. 17s. 6d. • Ovens, _, 31. 18s. 3d. to 31. 18s. 9d. ; Port'Phili . p; 31. 1e5,,64,19 31. 19s.

From a careful estimate of what has been brought down from our own gold fields by the Go vernment escorts, by the private escort, 'and by private hands, we believe that we may set down the quantity of . gold dust received in Sydney since the Ist of January to the present date at not less than 28 ,000 ounces. .. . - " In good wools ready sales are effected, but the circa- • lars before us again warn the growers that inferior quali ties ~ can only be moved at comparatively low prices. Com plaints still continue to be made that most of the wool this season is very much worse than it was last year. On the " whole, the price of wool cannot be said to have declined. Prices are stated to be better than even the highly favour ' able rates quoted at the last November sales. . • .- "In tallow our market is extremely bare. Messrs.

IVHITSUNTIDE and its ACCOMPAN l- INIEN TS. —IV hit untide is always a holiday, and with pro per accompaniments is enjoyed by ad classes. Juveniles always ex pect it to be accompanied whit new dre-s, and the same sentiment exists with adults in every station of society. E. MOSES and SoN's accustomed diligence, enterprise, and unequalled commercial posi tion, enable them to present the accompaniments of Whitsuntide in the most approved manner ; their youth's and juven le attire for Whitsuntide is more distinguished for variety than that of former seasons. Its novel designs, and the new method of cutting invented by E. MOSES and SoN, ensure them the most excellent fit, and add most astonishingly to the appearance, comfort, and durability of the garments. It is well known that no article of dress can look well, feel comfortable, and wear well, unless it is properly cut and made. A most magnificent stock of summer mats /leis has been selected by E. MosEs and SON, that every taste might be most satisfactorily gratified ; and though great advances have been made in prices, E. MosEs and SON observe the same economical charges accompanied with the best quality in materials and workmanship. E. Moses and SoN's vests and trousers exhibit a concentration of every novelty in fabrics which have been produced by the skill and industry of all countries. and are unparalleled for superiority and cheapness. The Summer Coats offered by E. MOSES and SoN combine every style for the season, are light and elegant, approved by everybody because they are true to the symmetry of the figure, and are charged more economical Prices than at any other hou se. Hats, Caps, Hosiery, Boots and Shoes, &c. &c., the best and cheapest in the world. E. hIOSES and SoN's Wholesale Clothing.

CAUTION.—E. MOSES and SON regret having to guard the public against imposition, having' learned that the untradesman-like f threhood of " Being connected with their Establishment," or " It's the same concern," has been resorted to in many instances, and for obvious reasons, they beg to state that they have No CONNEXION worn ANT OTHER, HOUSE IN OM OUT OF LONDON, except their own Establishments, as follows : London City Establishment, 154, 155. 156, and 157, Minories, 84 85, and 86, Aldgate, opposite the Church, all communicating.

The Vienna correspondent of the Times, in a second edition of that journal on Saturday, gave the following account of the tactics of the Czar in so far as the Ger man powers are concerned : " It daily becomes more evident that Russia is in great danger of ultimately findinc , herself in arms against the whole of the rest of Europe, but persons who are well ac quainted with her tactics are of opinion that she will still • manage to keep Austria and Prussia out of the field dur ing this campaign. The St. Petersburg Cabinet is well aware that if the two great German powers should posi tively insist on the Russian armies being immediately withdrawn from the principalities, it would be necessitated to yield, and, therefore ' its object must be to play them off • against each other as long as possible. If Russia can manage to keep Austria at bay until the bad weather sets in, she will again begin to negotiate, and perhaps during the winter succeed in obtaining acceptable terms from the . Western Powers. It strikes me that the present position of Austria and Prussia is fraught with danger. Both Powers, by signing the Vienna protocols, have incurred the serious displeasure of the imperious Czar, and they ap pear to believe that their alliance will be sufficient to pro- . tect them against the future effects of his wrath. No one who knows anything of Germany can attach any great im portance to the support of the smaller States, and, there fore, common prudence requires that a treaty of some kind or other should be concluded with the Western Powers." The Vienna correspondent of the Times was too com municative here to suit the views of his employers ; and consequently the passage was struck out of his commu nication, as it appeared in the columns of our contem porary yesterday. The above passage is of the highest importance—for it accords with our own private infor mation as to what the course of Russian policy is to be. It is by gettino. Austria and Prussia seemingly to side with the Western Powers, while they are' in reality with her, that she expects to accomplish her objects.— orniag Advertise,..

Qui si parla Ttallauo. Aoua s habla Esnano. The Secretary, Mr. FOREMAN, read the report, from which the following are extracted : " The charter, as stated in the prospectus, authorises your directors to raise, for the purposes of the company, a capital of one million pounds sterling, represented by • fqrty thousand shares, of twenty-five pounds each; an nexing a provision that the company shall not commence business until the directors shall have satisfied the soard. of Trade that the register of shareholders exhibits a -subscription of. five ht ud.red.Ahousand pounds, on *idols deposits to the amount of forty thousaud pounds shall have been paid. " The first duty of the Directors therefore being to rea lise as early as practicable the conditions required by the charter, they have devoted their unceasing exertions to . the accomplishment of that object. They have, indivi dually, laboured to obtain subscriptions in their respective circles of friends ; they have, collectively, endeavoured to awake a public interest in the great undertaking of the Company ; first, by general advertisements is the daily press ; secondly, by an extensive correspondence with all . parts of the United ICingdom and her colonies, and also with the States of America, North and South ; and finally, , by deputations from their own body to various localities whose position and circumstances appeared to promise the , support and co-operation of a common interest. . The Directors regret the necessity of reporting that these' efforts have not been followed by the desired results, either in this country or in the Australian colonies. Seventeen thou sand shares were allotted by the deed of settlement tothe latter" from which support has not been received to the extent of even ono hundred shares, notwithstanding the manifest advantages, so ably urged by the press, which those colo nies would derive from the establishment of the route by Panama. In justice to the colonial goVernments and legis latures it may be stated, that a disposition has been evinced to afford encouragement by liberal grants. " Unshaken, however, as their confidence continues in THE MAIM—SOUTHAMPTON, May 27.—The Penin sular and Oriental Steam Navigation Company's steamer Iberia, Captain H. Meehan, sailed this afternoon for Vigo, Oporto, Lisbon, Cadiz, and Gibraltar, taking out 27 passengers, a full general cargo, and specie valued at 21,6351. for Cadiz, and 2001. for Lisbon. The Australian Pacific Mail Steam-packet Company's screw steamer Kangaroo arrived this morning from Constantinople and Malta, and, after coaling, proceeded to Woolwich to em bark warlike stores for the East. The Kangaroo for the past month has been engaged in the transport service, and has been found a most efficient ship. The General Screw Steam-shipping Company's steam-ship Indiana, after a most successful voyage to Calcutta and the Cape, has arrived here to discharge her cargo and land passengers. The Indiana delivered her mails at Plymouth this (Saturday) morning. The beautiful new screw steam-ship Candia, belonging to the Peninsular and Oriental Steam Navigation Company, reached the port this evening, after a rapid run from the Thames, notwithstanding the heavy south-west winds she had to contend with. The official trial trip of this steamer is to take place on Wednesday next. The Royal mall steam-ship Magdalena is to take out the West India and Mexican mails of the 2d proximo. The new paddle wheel steam-ship Tamar, belonging to the Royal West India Mail Steam-packet Company, is to take out the mails of the 17th proximo. This steamer was officially tried on Wednesday last, and attained an average speed at the measured mile of over 14 knots, or 16A statute miles an hour. The Tamar was built by Messrs. Pitcher, of Northfleet, and is in the highest degree creditable to that eminent shipbuilding firm. The *United States mail steam-ship Washington, Captain E. M. Fitch, with dates from New York to the 20th inst., is expected to arrive off Cowes, on her way to Bremen, on Friday next. LADY EMILY PONSONBY'S NEW WORK.—The new novel, "Edward Willoughby," from the pen of the author of "The Discipline of Life," has just appeared. A great and permanent success may be predicted for Lady Emily Ponsonby's new story. The author possesses the happy talent of inculcating morality without feeling a necessity to sermonise, and her tales, though breathing a truly religious tone, have all the interest of the most excit ing novel. In the present instance, Lady Ponsonby has sought to prove the danger of yielding to impulse, and the various trials to which Edward Willoughby is ex posed, until experience has rendered him a better and a wiser man, furnish opportunities for the development of most charming and fascinating story.

" The directors consider it a duty hero to. state, that, they have entertained a proposition which, at first, ap peared to promise the effective support of American capi talists ; that they have devoted to it all proper considera tion, but foiind it fettered by conditions to which it was impossible to accede, as involving a complete abandonment of a principle deemed by them essential to the interests of the company, viz., a free, open, unfettered competition ltr the contracts for the structure of the coinPany's machinery and ships, and for the supply of the necessary stores and requirements. " Having thus represented the present position of the company,.the directors desire to submit to the meeting an exprgsion of their opinion as to the course which it may - be expedient to pursue. It appears to them, that—as the proliniivary expenses for the establishmontof the company have already been incurred. and the current expenditure - , until the commencement of active operations, is small, and 'nay admit of further reduction—it will be expedient to await the issue of passing events." The eiti.inreur alluded to the great exertions made by the directors to get the shares taken in the proportion pointed out by the charter, but they had not succeeded ; owing, as he supposed, to the continual state of depres sion in all matters of speculation. Out of 15,800 shares allotted, only about 7,000 ha.d been paid upon ; neither had the inhabitants of the colony, which would be so much benefited by the Panama route, come forward as was expected. The Chairman ended by tion of the report. m osiog the adop• Mr. CHOWNE seconded the motion, during which he highly eulogised the conduct of the directors, and said that they had really only spent 2,761/. on the company, out of the 13,4221. received as deposit. A PROPRIETOR thought the company ought to be abandoned, or better supported ; now they bad an act of incorporation, the directors ought to sue the allottees who had not paid their deposits. The SOLICITOR said the board thought it would . only damage the company ; time would; no doubt, point out to them the advantage of completing their engagements. The report having been adopted, a cordial vote pf hanks was passed to the chairman and directori,when he meeting adjourned. `~!K RENCONTRES BETWEEN THE SOLDIERY AND POLICX number of IN NEWCASTLE. — O n Saturday and Sunday evenings the peace of thi s t ra o w at n in w g a a s s s e e r r i i c o s us o l t y a t t h ta r e c a k t s e nulonbyins. dividual soldiersmembers of the borough police. The excite ment and alarm on Sunday evening especially were most intense, parties of disorderly soldiers s et loose from barracks, followed by immense crowds of per sons, thronging some of the principal thoroughfares of the town, threatening vengeance to the police, while the more orderly portion of the inhabitants were walking to or from the various places of wor ship. The soldiers referred tl belonged to a de tachment of the Gth Regiment of Foot, stationed at this garrison. In justice to that regiment, however, as well as for the credit of the service generally, we may premise that those misbehaved men must not be taken as a fair specimen of the corps, whose general good con duct we have never before heard called in question. The fact is, on Wednesday, th e re g iment, some of whose members had been the cause of those riotous proceedings, left this town for Hull, and we !rest that in their new quarters they may make amends for former delinquencies.

THE CIT! OF • GLASGOW SCREW STEAIf-SHlP.—This ill-fated screw steam-ship, with its 480 souls on board, is at length given up. As may be remembered she sailed from Liverpool on the Ist of March, with 111 cabin and saloon passengers and about 293 s teerage, her crew numbering 76, including the commander, Captain Morrison, and from the period of her clearing the Mer sey up to the present moment not the least tidings have been heard of her. The breaking up of the im mense fields of ice to the northward of the bank, which were borne down the Atlantic in masses, it is said of some 200 or 300 miles in length, no doubt overwhelmed the vessel in an attempt to force a passage, and caused her almost immediate destruction, n ot a soul escaping. It is feared that other ships trading between England and the United States, which are missing, shared a simi lar fate. The Cleopatra, screw steam-ship, one of the Liverpool and Canadian line, which arrived out had at Portland on the 15th instant, reports having a narrow escape in 'the ice. On making the Gulf of St. Lawrence to reach Quebec she got entangled amongst some bergs, which carried away one of her iron dis plates below the water line. It was fortunately quickly c overed, and the commander, Captain Salt, had the presence of mind to cause all the passengers to go to the after pint of the ship, which had the effect of raising: the bow of the Cleopatra su aliently to enable the aperture to be covered in, and thus) preventing the ship filling. After some delay the pate was secured, and she proceeded onto her destination. It was most fortunate that very little wind prevailed at the time. Some 24 hours-previously she encountered a terrific gale, and had her decks swept of almost everything, losirT• portion of her bulwarks and stanchions on both sides, and ice-house, round-house, se., being carried away. It is supposed that the City of Glasgow met with a simi with less fortunate.results. lar accident, but, unhappily, The mail steamers which have arrived during the week still report the existence of large fields of ice in the Atlantic, in the track of vessels proceeding to and from the United States.

NEW YORK, MAY 13.—The caloric ship Ericsson, having been raised a n d nearly exhausted of water, was towed over to the Navy Yard early yesterday afternoon, and was moored in the stream opposite the ship-houses, the tide not being high enough to take her into the stone dock, where she is going to have some further alterations made in her ma chinery, which were contemplated prior to her recent disaster. This morning s h e will probably be taken in. She still draws not far from 20 feet of wnora ter, th a e s she has ed out, not yet been thoroughly pump y sediment that collected in her while submerged removed. Viewed externally, she does not appear worse than might be expected if she had just returned from an ocean voyage, and it is to be hop ed that she is not essentiall y damaged, aside from the inj ur y received to painti n g, furniture, decorations, &c. The reason for her going to the Government dock is that others cannot now receive her. No vessel is received at the navy yard except such is the case, and a written certificate to that effect from the proprietors of the several private docks presented, lest it should be brought into competition with them ; and even then, the charges are Mod e coirably above what are demanded elsewhere.—New k Journal of Com- merce. DISCOVERY OF BASE COIL—A parcel of forty-eight counterfeit half-crowns was transmitted from Birming ham to Manchester on Wednesday, and, information having reached the Manchester police, an officer was on the watch and secured the man who applied for them on their arrival and received them from the railway clerk. The coins were most excellent counterfeits, and their ring unimpeachable, but they were very light, and easily detected on that account. A. great deal of base coin 13 being "put off " at present in Lancashire, and scarcely a week passes but the authorities of the Mint have in formation of apprehensions on that account, COURT-MART/AL.—A court-martial assembled yes• terday on board the Waterloo, 121, flagship, to try Mr. Thomas Yeatman, second-master of the Cuckoo steam vessel, on the following charges :—First charge, absence without leave ; second charge, disobedience of orders and retarding the fitment of the said vessel • third and fourth charges, being drunk on board the Cuckoo, and also on board the Waterloo ; fifth charge, being again absent without leave, and apprehended by the master at-arms of the Waterloo. The court sat for three hours on the part of the prosecution, and after hearing the prisoner's defence, they decided that the Ist charge was fully proved- the- 2d charge was not proved ; the 3 d , 4th, and - Stigeharges were also fully proved ; and the• sentence of - the court - wasihat Mr. Thomas Yeatman be dismissed her Majesty's service. A Russian barque prize has arrived at the Little Nore from the Baltic. Yesterday three more Russian prizes, the Emilie, Tillon master"; the Aura, Mathson, master ; and the Johanna, arrived in the West India Docks, from the Baltic : the prisoners were removed to the Crocodile, and the necessary instructions forwarded to the Queen's Proctor, to obtain the lawful condemnation of the prizes in the Court of Admiralty. Advices were received yesterday at the Admiralty, under date Elsinore, May the 18th, that another Rus sian prize, called the Primus, had arrived, in charge of an English prize crew, off that port, and sailed for England. Mr. H. G. Swainson ' acting Second Master, on board the James Watt, whis brought the prize Aland home, and Mr. Henry Stewart, mate on board the Gorgon, who brought the Ida home, have joined the Waterloo as supernumeraries,_waiting a passage to their respec tive ships in the Baltic. The Star, 8, sleep, Commander Frederick P. Warren, from the South-east coast of America, arrived at Sheer ness yesterday afternoon. She was visited and inspected by Captain Lord Frederick Kerr, of the Waterloo. The crew were beat to quarters, and put through their va rious exercises, great gun practice, firing, &c., also sending down and up topgallantyards, &a., all of which was done so as to call forth the high approbation of his lordship. The Star remains at Sheerness, waiting orders. The Royal Albert was put under the masting shears yesterday, and is getting her machinery on board. Her boilers, which have arrived at Woolwich, are to be shipped on board the Rhadamanthus steam store-vessel for conveyance to Sheerness. The Powerful, 84, Captain Manse], has got her lower rigging and topmasts up, and is rapidly progressing in her equipment in No. 2 dock at Portsmouth. The Royalist, 8, Commander Bate, is alongside Ports mouth Dockyard jetty dismantling, to be paid off and placed in ordinary. The Sphinx, 6, paddle-wheel sloop, Captain Clifford, has hoisted the pennant at Portsmouth, and is now nearly complete. The Victoria and Albert, Royal steam yacht, Captain the Hon. Joseph Denman, being completed for masting, leaves the dock at Portsmouth this day (Tuesday.) The Harpy, 4, iron paddle steam-ves3el, Lieutenant Lindsay, is ready to leave the basin at Portsmouth as soon as ordered. She has no medical officer on board. The Admiralty have intimated to the Mayor of Sun derland that it is the intention of the Government to keep a vessel of war cruising in the North Sea, for the protection of our merchant shipping. It is also proposed by the Ordnance to put the defences at the mouth of the Wear into an efficient condition. A fine Sardinian screw steam frigate, built for that Government by Messrs. Smith of Newcastle, and fitted with engines by Robert Stephenson is at present at Greenhithe, to have her compasses adjusted previous to her departure for the Mediterranean. In consequence of the recent Treasury order with re gard to the exportation of machinery, Messrs. Pow and Fawcas, the large iron manufacturers in North Shields, who are loading the vessel Ahramandus with engines and manufactured iron for Bremen, have had to apply for leave to export those articles, which has been granted them upon the condition of the exporters paying a Cus tom-house officer to proceed in charge of the articles, to see that the engines are put into two steamers intended to tow vessels into Bremerhaven, and not to pass into the hands of the Rus.,ian authorities. It is also stated that a Newcastle hOuse will be permitted to send machi nery to Vienna under a similar arrangement. Messrs. Humphrys, Tennant, and Dyke have received orders to send to Woolwich the engines of 100-horse power made by that firm for the Harrier, 16, screw steam sloop, that they may be forwarded to Portsmouth, the Harrier having been brought round from Pembrolr where she was launched, to Portsmouth to be fitted. All the preparations were complete for the sailing o, the Himalaya from Queenstown on Sunday with the service troops of the sth Dragoons and their horses on board ; and, in addition to the cavalry, 140 men of the 68th Light Infantry. The Lords of the Admiralty yesterday gave notice at Lloyd's that a vessel was required forthwith to convey 100 pieces of ordnance to Constantinople. The Lords of the Admiralty also crave notice yester day at Lloyd's that several ships of from 500 to 600 tons burden were required to convey draughts of regiments, each numbering about 436' rank and file, from the River Thames, Portsmouth, and Cork to Quebec. The enrolled pensioners of Chelsea Hospital will be reviewed this day in Hyde park, by the Commander-in- Chief. Yesterday morning the light company, with draughts from the other companies of the 46th Regiment, in all 144 men, marched from the Infantry Barracks in Sheet street, Windsor, under the command of Captain Vesey and Lieutenant Dallas, and proceeded by the Great Western Railway to Kensington Barracks, there to take garrison duty. The remainder of the 46th, consisting of five companies, are expected to arrive at Windsor to-day from Weedon. Lionel Lambert, mate of 1852, serving as First Mate of the Retribution steam frigate, in the Black Sea, is promoted to be Lieutenant. The Tonning, hired steam-transport, Commander W. Hales Franklin, arrived at the Motherbank on Sunday night, and came into Portsmouth harbour yesterday --- --- At first Honeysuckle was in so good odour that the investments which were made quickly advanced her to 6to 1 ; meanwhile Meteora receded to Bto 1.

Since last year a complete change has been effected in the economy and arrangements at the Grand Stand. The building has been' thoroughly cleaned and redecorated ; the roof has been raised to a considerable altitude, and has been rendered as secure as wood and iron work can make it. The principal feature is, however, the new stalls which have been erected in front of the top balcony; they have been constructed to accommodate parties of six or nine, and have quite as much privacy and comfort as a " snug box at the Opera." These stalls are let by subscription, and the undertaking has succeeded beyond expectation. Few, if any, are now at the disposal of the clerk of the course. Each subscriber is furnished with a key to his stall, and his name is painted in legible charac ters on the door. The out-door arrangements will, as usual, be under the direction of Mr. Charles Martin. The victualling department will, as heretofore, bo con ducted by Messrs. Jaquet and Woodruffe, who will again have Mr. Farrah as their chef-de-cuisine —a suffi cient guarantee for the excellence of the provisions, every article of which will be prepared "on the premises," and for this purpose the cooking apparatus is on a most ex tensive scale. Notwithstanding the late heavy showers of rain the course is in capital condition—indeed, no expedient has been neglected that could render it what trainers and jockeys call " good going." It has been well rolled and bush-harrowed ; every rut filled up, bare places retailed, and roadways covered with tan. A number t.f horses arrived in the course of Sunday and yesterday, and by this time the principal Derby horses are located in the neighbourhood. Visitors, too, dropped in numerously. On the Derby-day and Oaks-day trains will run at the usual first and second class fares from 7 a.m. to 9 p.m., and return from Epsom after 8 p.m. Additional fast trains will run from London at 9.5 a.m. until 1.20 p.m. ; and from Epsom from 4 p.m. till 8 p.m. It must be remembered that the ordinary trains between London and Croydon, and between London and Epsom, will be entirely suspended during the hours advertised for run ning the additional trains. They who wish to vi it t rou ble and annoyance will do well to procure t tickets at one of the special booking-offices announced by the company. Epsom may also be reached rid Kingston. Trains on the Derby-day will run from the Waterloo sta tion to Kingston every half hour from 8 a.m. until 1.30 p.m., and parties walking to the course from Kingston _ will find a near route indicated through the fields. Ike, I LAW INTELLIGENCE. —May 29 COURT OF CHANCERY. (Before the Lords Justices.) BRIGGS V. LORD AND LADY OXFORD. Their Lordships gave judgment in this case. The appeal was from a decision of Vice-Chancellor Stuart, who confirmed the Master's report. The queition turned upon the construction of a deed, dated the 17th March, 1832, under which the Oxford estates are settled. Mr. Briggs was appointed by the deed to superintend the management of the estates, and to receive the rents, and he claimed poundage on the sale of certain timber sold by the trustees of the settlement. The Court below held that he was entitled to poundage, but their Lordships, after remarking that the deed was so drawn as to render a literal interpretation not rationally pos sible, said that they were of opinion that, on the true construction - of the deed, Mr. Briggs was only entitled to poundage on the income of the property ; and-there fore, as the produce of the sale of the timber wa s prin cipal and not income, he was not entitled to poun da g e. The matter must therefore be referred back to the Master to review his report. _____ HINDSON V. WSTHERILL. This was an appeal from a decision of Vice-Chancellor Stuart. The question involved is as to l the validity of a devise to the solicitor, who prepared the wil of the testator in the cause. The case was only being opened when the coart rose. • 10ND.4.1t9 , THE ESTIMATES FOR THE REVENUE DEPARTMENTS. It has long been admitted to be desirable that the large sum annually abstracted from the public revainue in its progress to the Exchequer should be brought under the direct control of Parliament. This object has now been accomplished, and the Government are entitled to the gratitude of financial reformers for the important im provement which has been effected. A bill at present in progress provides for the payment of the gross revenue into the Exchequer, and consequently it has become necessary to submit estimates of "the sum required to defray the expenses of the several departments engaged in the collection and management of the public revenue of the United Kingdom" for the current • year. The votes are five in number, and the particulars are as follow : I. CUSTOMS, SALARIES, AND EXPENSES.—The total of this vote is 810,785/. The salaries of and allowances to the board and officers of the superintending establishment at the Custom-house, in Thames-street, amount to 73,917/. of which the board, comprising a chairman, deputy chairman, and four commissioners, receive 8,500/. The Secretary's office enters for 13,6451., the Solicitor's for 5,3401., the Receiver-General's for 6,110/.; the Comptrol ler-General's for 5,3801. ; the Inspector-General's for 9,2801., and the Examiner's for 14,4201. The total number of persons employed is 259, of whom 166 occupy situations in the last three offices at salaries for the most part very moderate. The next item included in this head is for " salaries and allowances to officers in the establishment of the poik of Loudon, the pay of extra and glut officers, and incidental charges," and its amount is 292,652/. Under this head the salaries of no less than 1,799 officers are pro vided for, including those employed in the Long Room , ,at the Lolkdois Docks, the St. Katharine's Docks, and in other similar establishments. In this, as well as the pre ceding item, a considerable allowance is made for addi tional charges anticipated in consequence of " expected in crease of business." For the establishment at the port of Liverpool the grant proposed is 111,4091., which provides for a collector, whose salary is 1,200/., and 818 other officers. For the other establishments of the United Kingdom, which aro 122 in number, and employ 2,496 officers, the amount required is 3286671., which is thus composed : Salary and daily pay £262,240 Pay of extra and glut officers 25,552 Incidental charges Bristol, Cork, Dublin, Glasgow, Hull, Leith, Newcastle, and Southampton, are the only places having establishments the cost of which exceeds 10,000/. a-year, and at Hull alone is the total charge double that amount. For law charges, seizures, &c., 13,600/. is required, but it is anticiptated that this amount will be more than covered by the pro ceeds of sales of seized goods and penalties recovered, which will be carried to the customs revenue and paid to the Ex chequer. The only remaining item in this vote is 20,5101. for salaries and allowances to officers of the department in the West India and South American Colonies, including pay of extra officers and incidental expenses. Recapitulat ing the above particulars, we shall have— Custom-house establishment, London £73,947 Port of London establishment „ Liverpool „ All other establishments in the United Kingdom 328,667 Law charges,l3,6oo West Indies and North America 20,510 £840,785 11. COAST-GUARD. — The total of this vote is 47,),320/. ; the largest item being 319,1401., for pay and allowances to officers and men employed in the force on shore. The amount of this force is as follows :-62 inspecting com manders of districts, 4 13 officers in comm and of stations, 4,416 chief boatmen, commissioned and other boatmen, and 14 mounted guard. The estimated charge of 51 reve nue cruisers, the crews of which amount altogether to 812, is 67,050/. ; and a further sum of 41,5001. is required for the buildin g s in the occupation of the establishment, in cluding the hire of those rented, and for the maintenance and repair of boats, with other minor expenses. lII.—INLAND REVENUE.—Tho total of this vote is 1,151,5941., of which 176,8741. is for the salaries of the board and officers paid at the chief office. The hoard consists of a chairman, deputy chairman, and five commissioners ; and the total of their salaries is 10,8001. The whole number of officers employed is 869 ; and of these six receives salaries of 1,0001. a year or up wards. For salaries of surveying officers and others on the establishment in England, the charge is 286,155/. ; for those in Scotland, 103 , 814 /. ; and for Ireland, 83,7511 The numbers employed are—in England, 2,496 ;in Scotland, 975 ; and in Ireland, 711. For the poundage paid to collectors and assessors 118,0001. is the sum_ proposed to be granted, and for mis cellaneous expenses, 129,0001. Postage and carriage of parcels is entered as a separate charge of 28,0001. and for the construction and repair of buildings, 35,0001. is asked. IV. REVENUE, POLICE &C., IRELAND. — The total of this vote is 52,769 1 ., and the whole force maintained amounts to 1,2281., o whom 27 constitute the crew of the Seamew revenue steamer, and 176 are officers of various grades. B. POST-OFFICE.—The total of this vote is 1,525,3351., and it appears that the amount expended in the year ended the sth of October, 1853, was ],370,36W. The esti mate for the establishments in the capitals of the three kingdoms is 383,5961., which is divided as follows :—Lon don, 324,8061.; Dublin, 36,313/. ; and Edinburgh, 22,4771. The district post, for which there is no charge in the two last-mentioned capitals, enters in the estimates for the former at 102,4241. For provincial establishments the following aro the esti mates : England and Wales • £327,233 Ireland Scotland 49,450 The minutest details are given as to the salaries paid to those employed at each post-office, and the estimates ap pear to be framed in the clearest and most satisfactory manner. For the conveyance of mails, the to tal amount to be provided is 645,397 1 ., of which 421, 867/. is payable to the railway companies, and 117,002/. is the estimated expense of " carts and omnibuses." For buildings and re pairs, the grant proposed amounts to 21,3131., of which 12,5001. is to be expended in the construction of a new, post-office at Glasgow, a site for which has alr ead y been purchased at a cost .310,000. The following summary shows the amount of the seve ral votes, and the grand total of these new estimates : Customs—Salaries and - expenses.. .................. £840,785 Coast-guard Inland Revenue—Salaries and expenses Police (Ireland) 1,525,335 Post-ogee • Total £4,052,803 The attention of Parliament will no doubt bo directed to the charges now for the first time brought under its notice, and it is possible that, without interfering with the efficiency of the several departments, redactions may hereafter be made in the estimates now submitted. THE WAR 'AL AND MILITARY INTELLIGENCE. . - MALTA, May 22.--Our advices from Malta, dated May 22, state that a detachment of steamers, under Sir Edmund Lyons, viz., the Highflyer, the Retribution, the Niger, the Sampson ? and the Firebrand, left the fleet off Sebastopol on the sth inst., for the coast of.eircassia. The fleets were blockading Sebastopol up to the 11th. The 79th Regiment, per Simoom, and detachments of the Bth Hussars and Horse Artillery had passed Malta en route to the East after a short detention. The Simla was undergoing repairs, having broken her fan on her passage out The India mails were conveyed to Alexandria by the Valetta. A traveller just arrived announced the capture of 20 Greek pirates by the French steam-frigate Gorner. Her Britannic Majesty's Ambassador at Athens, Mr. Wyse, having advised his Majesty King Otho to call in the assistance of the English and French troops, the King had returned for answer, that the moment any foreign troops landed in Greece, he would head the in surgents to protect his independence ! Not long since an officer of her Majesty's steamer Triton, Mr: Hughes, Second Master, having mustered at quarters, expecting a night attack by pirates, the pistol in his belt went off, and carried off some of the fingers of his left hand, which was resting on his thigh. Immediate amputation of the wounded fingers became necessary, and the following day the Leander frigate hove in sight, on which a medical consultation took place, when it was resolved to amputate the whole hand. The operation was performed under the influence of chloroform. The sufferer had arrived at Malta by the French steamer, the captain of which not only refused the slightest remuneration, but, his vessel being crowded and all his berths engaged, he sacrificed his own cabin to his suffering brother officer, and tended him with the utmost kindness. A very large body of troops was at Malta, amounting to upwards of 7,000 men, destined for Athens, for which port a portion was to sail on the evening of the 22d. The total number of French troops that had arrived during the month was, exclusive of officers, 16,558 rank and file, and horses and mules 2,849. The greater part of this body had either left for the East, or was to do so in the course of the day, except those destined for the suppression of the Greek insurrection. The follow ing were the arrivals subsequent to the 16th : By the Simla, on the 18th.—Colonels Beatson and Cobbe ; Majors Northey and M'Creagh ; Lieutenant Elliott ; Surgeons Lunter and Stockley ; and Assistant- Commissary-General Melassez. - - By the Simoom on the 19th.—Lieutenant-Colonel Elliott ; Majors Ferguson and Douglas ; Captains Tay lor, Clephane, M`Call, Hunt, Hodgson, Campbell, Mait land, and Barnet ; Lieutenants Miller, Maitland, Cun inghame, Cuming, W.
