SPIRIT of the PUBLIC JOURNALS. /SOH THE EVENING PAPERS OF YESTERDAY. GLOBE.—The official returns of the National Revenue for the year and quarter, made up to the 10th October (yesterday), will be ound in the usual tabular form in another column. The results scarcely warrant the inordinate praises which the Ministerial journals pour upon Sir Robert Peel for his skill in finance. The' increase in the Customs department is designated by the Herald as " enormous." Of this increase the " sliding-scale" has the principal merit. That ingenious piece of mis chievous mechanism is as slippery as Sir Robert Peel; and yields to atmospheric influences as certainly as he does to expediency in the adaptation of his scheme of Government to the ever-changing events of the age and nation. The threatening aspect of the Spring months, the long drought which prevailed, and the dis astrous effects upon the growing crops which were ap prehended, gave a stimulus to speculation. Large quantities of wheat were imported, in the expectation that high price would be realised. The genial change of weather that took place just at the critical moment, and which continued throughout harvest, until the almost unprecedentedly abundant crops were safely housed, was fatal to the hopes of the importer ; and, by a natural operation, also deprived the farmer of the advantages which, under a sound policy, a good harvest would confer on him. To meet his engage ments the importer, who had speculated on the proba bility of a deficient harvest, was compelled to enter large quantities of foreign corn for home consump tion, at 18s. and 19s. duty. This produced an ad vantage to the Exchequer of little less than a million sterling. But this advantage to the na tional revenue has fearfully diminished the English grower's legitimate profits. The foreign corn poured into the market at the moment when that of native production was ready to be sent thither, and large quantities of which were com pelled to be sent and sold, to supply the farmer with the means of meeting his engagements, caused a fearful competition. Prices were reduced to an ex tent which has inflicted a positive loss on the Eng lish grower; and holds out to him a prospect of un remunerative markets during the year. From infor mation received from the best-informed sources, we have reason to believe that the average price of sound wheat for the next ten months will not be higher than 475. At the present rents, and other charges upon land, it is absurd for the landlords to expect that the farmers will be able to pay the rents which are " nominated in the bond;" or that labourers can be employed on the land in numbers, and at wages, which will ward off suffering and discontent from the agricultural districts. The Government organs may sound the notes of triumph on the " enormous in crease" in the Customs' receipts. Their masters know better than to find satisfaction in a state of things which will, most certainly, produce among their already estranged agricultural supporters additional reasons for denouncing the perfidy of Peel, and for cursing their own folly for trusting in him for " protection." His promises have proved fallacious — not because of any settled purpose he had formed to deceive, but because of the unsoundness of the system on which they were founded. Sir Robert Peel's tin kering of the old sliding-scale, by which he " un settled everything, and settled nothing," has exposed the hollowness of his professions ; and has caused among the farmers a very general desire for a fixed duty, as the only means of giving stability to prices, and thus afford an opportunity of calculating, with something like certainty, the amount of rents they can pay for land ; the items of expense to which they are subject in the process of cultivation ; and the returns upon the capital they invest. At present, the farmers are left to the mercy of cir cumstances which they are less than ever able to foresee or control. 'While anticipating a fair remuneration for their toil, they are victimised by the operation of the very system to which they were induced to look for an effectual check upon the introduction of the foreign article. So znuch for the "enormous increase" upon the Customs' revenue, of which the Herald crows ! Take a million from 1,723,165/., and the residue is not much to boast • or. To the absence of speculation in corn in the pre ceding year, and to the activity in the speculators in that just closed, must the increase be attributed. The same veritable oracle keeps the deficiency in the Excise upon the quarter wholly out of sight. " The Excise, the index to the comfort of the people, presents 1-.lso its increase upon the year, 173,8981." But if t' .e Excise he " the index to the comfort of the people," then during the past quarter there mu ilave be- n a diminution in those comforts ; for in the Excise there has been a falling off in the quar ter's receipts of 5,600/. ; and this upon what is called "the long quarter," which consists of five (14ys more than is assigned to either of the three - other quarters of the official financial year. On this decrease, the Times remarks :—" A trifling decrease is the Excise on the quarter is to be ascribed rather to growing habits of tern psrance in the lower orders, than to any diminution of means. It will bear, in fact, no other construction, for activity reigns in almost al! the departments of f. - ade, and the wages of labour in the maaufacturine districts have probably doubled in amount within the past year." But if "growing habits of temperance i:t the lower orders" have induced increased abstinence from ardent spirits, with activity in trade, and increased wages, there would have been an increased consump ti )n of the real and substantial comforts of life. Tea, sugar, soap, and such like articles, of which the lower orders are the principal consumers, would have been purchased in greater quantities ; and thus what had been lost to the revenue by decreased con sumption of ardent spirits, would have been more than compensated by the increase upon the prin cipal articles of consumption we have named. The fact is, that the stimulus given to manufactures by the opening of China to our merchants has somewhat subsided. The manufacturing districts are still the seats of much distress, occasioned by the lack of full employment in some of the staple commo dities. Though in the exhibition afforded by the official tables of revenue there 'is much cause for gratitude, there is nothing to justify boasting—much less is there anything to warrant the slightest cessa tion from legitimate exertions to obtain that much desired abrogation of the existing restrictions upon commerce, without which the same consequences will lie entailed on our manufacturers and merchants, and the same suffering poured out upon our labouring population, which have formerly resulted, at intervals, from an " insane and cruel policy." STANDARD.—The increase in the revenue upon the year, as compared with the year ending October 10, 1843 (itself a year of increase), amounts to the great sum of 1,395,349/. The increase upon the quarter, as compared with the corresponding quarter of last year, to 520,9441. This, however, is but an inadequate index to the rate of improve ment, for, setting aside the miscellaneous or casual payments (such as the Chinese ransom, &c., 1,375,0001.), for both years, the increase upon the regular constant revenue would be upwards of two millions three hundred thousand pounds sterling. The net revenue of the year amounts to 50,741,622/. ; and of this no less than 20,243,.5051. is from the Ctn• toms—an increase in this department alone of 1,723,1651. since last year • such has been the rapid improvement of foreign trade, such the effect of the re ductions of the tariff. The improvement in the Excise upon the year has not been so great, but it has been con siderable (173,8981.), and on the quarter there has been a trifling decrease, 5,6601. This has been as cribed to the temperance move'nent, we think, with out reason, for though the happy movement in clues• tion may, and probably does, operate generally to prevent an increase in the Excise, there is no ground for supposing that it has been more active in the last than in any of the other three quarters of the year. it is much more natural to account for the trifling decrease in the last three months, by imputing it to the late ness and perhaps deficiency of the barley har vest, which must have seriously affected the malt trade, from which so great a portion of the Excise revenue is derived. The year's increase upon the Stamps amounts to more than 69,0001., upon the Property-tax to 106,4131., upon the Post-office to 82,0001.—such is the state of the Revenue as com pared with last year ; but the just way in which to appreciate the merit of that financial system, of which it is the result, is to compare it with the state of the revenue as the present Ministers found it three years ago. This we may, perhaps, undertake to do here after. MARKET INTELLIGENCE. (From the London New Price Current of Oct. 11.)

Deodand on the engine, 300 L" The jury also expressed a strong opinion that the accident was the result of gross negligence and mismanagement of the agents of the Company. Considerable interest was taken in this unfortunate affair. Mr. Alport, the railway manager ; Mr. Pines, director ; and Mr. Newton, solicitor for the Company, were in attendance ; and the verdict was received with expressions of satisfaction on behalf of the friends of the sutiercrs. Burrell, another passenger, has since died of his in juries, and Greenwell, Gamble, and Young, are still in a precarious state. MUSIC AND DANCING LICENSES FOR WESTMINSTER.

PRICES OF SHARES IN CANALS, RAILWAYS, BANKS, ASSURANCE AND OTHER COMPANIES' STOCK. LONDON, FRIDAY, OCT. 11. POLICE INTELLIGENCE. (YESTERDAY.) MANSION-ISO USE. Patrick Fitzsimmons, and Eliza, his wife, were charged with having committed a desperate assault upon Charles Taylor, a tailor, who lodged in their house, in Greyhound-court, St. Mary Axe. Taylor stated, that the male prisoner having threatened to open his head with a poker or a flat iron he determined to leave the house, and he ac cordingly went to Mr. Fitzsimmons's apartments to pay his rent. As soon as he tendered the amount, the landlord and his wife insisted upon another week's rent, and upon being refused, Mrs. Fitzsimmons armed herself with a hammer and a knife, and Mr. Fitzsimmons seized the leg of a chair, and both of them went to work upon his head and body until he fell. The fall, instead of satisfying the two assailants, seemed to provoke them to still greater vengeance, and while the female was pegging away at him with the hammer, her husband danced upon his sides, so that if a person who was passing, and heard the noise of the hammer upon his skull, had not hap pened to interfere, he was sure deatl. would have been the consequence. As it was, the promise to open his head had been made good, for the hammer made a very serious impression upon the buck and front parts of his skull. James Hall stated, in a very emphatic manner, that if it had not been for his extraordinary exertions the complainant would certainly have lost his life; for the two prisoners were hammering and banging at him in the most ferocious manner. Aldermen WOOD and FARNCOMB, who sat upon the occasion, asked Mr. Fitzsimmons what he had to say ? The male prisoner —"Faith, I'll tell you all about it. Why, then, it's he that threatened me many's the time, and used to ax me out to fight ; but I said No, says I; I've got a house full of childher, and I'm sure it's not fighting them or me wants. Well, he was always at me to see which was the best man ; but he couldn't get me out any how, though he tore my coat one day to ribbing. At last, I goes home on Monday last, and I finds him kicking my wife on the flure. Well, what was Itodo ? I wasn't going to see her kilt, so I takes up the leg of the chair, and I did give him a poulthogue, and then up comes this body (Hall) and separates us. Alderman WOOD—And what have you to say, Mrs. Fitzsimmons ? Mrs. Fizsimmons—Oh, then, faith, your Worship, if the man has got any mischief, it wasn't my husband but myself that done it. And what was Itode ? lam the mother of five honest born childher, and they're all here, your Lordship. And what's the first word he salutes me wud ? Why, you w—, says he, what do you want ? So my sister Peggy goes up to him to remind him of the ugly word he used ; and what does he do but calls her another w—, and then he gripped her by the hair of the head, down down upon the flure he knocked her, sure enough. Well, was I going to see my sister murthered by a Welshman ? Not at all, my Lord, so to prevent murther I thought it best to separate them, and then he turned upon me, and then my husband came in, and it would be hard to think that he'd be against me. Upon my sowl it was to save my sister I stirred hand or foot. Alderman Woon—ls your sister here ? Mrs. Fitzsimmons—Peggy, jewel, come here, and tell God's truth to his Lordship. Margaret Naughten—Faith, it's I that will. I'll tell yer all about it. This gentleman (Taylor) struck my sister when Fitzsimmons was out, and called her a —, and he called me one too, and dragged so much hair out of my head that the headache never left me since. My sister then runs to my assistance, and in Fitzsimmons walked. Alderman WOOD—Well, what did he do ? Wit ness—Do! Why, he went off for a policeman directly.—(Laughter.) Alderman WOOD—Did you see him strike Mr. Taylor ? Witness—No, my Lord, I never saw him lift his hand to Mr. Taylor. Alderman WOOD—How did Mr. Taylor get those wounds in his head ? Witness—Faith, then, my Lord, I saw him stagger and fall against the stairs, but I am sure Fitzsimmons never struck him. Mrs. Fitzsimmons—He called me a w— and a b—, and I won't stand that from any man. The ALDER MEN stated, that they considered the assault a very desperate act of violence, and if the prisoners had not a large family of young children, tl - - case should be sent before a jury. The sentence upon them was, that the man should pay a fine of forty shillings, or be committed for a month ; and that the woman should pay a fine of ten shillings, or be committed for a week. The prisoners were finally committed to prison. WORSHIP-STREET. William Blackett was charged with the following highway robbery : George Peach, a weaver, living in Daniel-street, Bethnal-green, stated that he was passing through Austin-street, Shoreditch, on his way home, at a late hour on the preceding night, when the prisoner suddenly came before him, and, seizing him by the collar, thrust his hand into the pocket of his trousers, which contained a quantity of loose silver. On en deavouring to disengage himself, the prisoner instantly withdrew his hand from his pocket, and struck him a violent blow on the face, that felled him to the ground. He remained for some time insensible, and on re covering himself he found that the prisoner was gone, and all his money, consisting of three half-crowns and a shilling, had been stolen. Sergeant Price, H 15, stated that at two o'clock that morning he found the prosecutor lying on the pavement, in Austin-street, with the blood flowing copiously from his mo uth and nose. In answer to the prosecutor told him that he had been and robbed by a man wearing a white i h l i l s i u n s q e u d i r es, blouso and cap ; and they afterwards repaired to gether to a coffee-house in Shoreditch, where they found the prisoner, whom the prosecutor immediately identified as the thief, and had him taken into cus tody. The prisoner denied the charge, and declar e d that he had not a farthing about him, but on search ing him at the station-house they found three half crown pieces a nd a shilling secreted in one of his shoes. The prisoner was well known to th e p o li ce, and had been frequently in custody for different offences. The prisoner, who declined sayi ng any thi ng, was co mmitted for trial. THE QUEEN AND THE OTTER. (From Punch.) The glories of the bear -garden may yet return. The jocund, hearty times, when royal Elizabeth gave the majesty of her countenance to the baiting of Bruin, may not be irrevocably passed away. No ; when Young England reads the account of the otter hunt at Blair Athol, at which Queen Victoria pre sided, the said Young England may complacently , pat its white waistcoat, believing that the wisdom of our ancestors in the matter of bear-baiting will again be manifest. Indeed, we do not see why cock-fight ing should not again flourish in all its wonted hearti ness. We have even hopes of long-neglected badger drawing. It seems that Lord Aberdeen took his otter-hounds to Blair Athol, where there are no native otters. In a word, the hounds were appointed to a place in which there was nothing to do; an appointment often made by Foreign Ministers, Whig and Tory. How ever, in due season, an otter was caught at Kelso, and transmitted in 'a box, to be properly worried at Blair Athol. We are told that the Strasburg goose, that is tor tured to death for the sake of its enlarged liver, " knows that it is dying for the honour of France, and expires without a tear." We have this coin fortable assurance in the Almanach des Gourmands. In like manner, the otter—poor little wretch !—may have known the greatness of its destiny as it travelled in its box from IcAso, and thus have complacently resigned itself to its fate. It may have known it was a living dish to be set before a Queen, and been pleased with its fortune. It poured with rain, but nothing could damp the heroic ardour of the sportsmen. Even the Queen mounted her pony under an umbrella ; and Prince Albert particularly distinguished himself at the onset— " For the Prince of all the land Led them on." We now come to the details :-- - - - - • • - •• ------ " The otter was started — at a point under the hill of Tulloch, in the Garry-water, a few hundred yards above the village of Blair Athol. The Prince followed on foot close on the hounds, which hunted the otter a short dis tance up the river, affording pretty g ood s p ort, until at length, in about twenty minutes aft er t h e fi rst start, he took to the laud, and was seized by one of the hounds. The huntsmen took him off, and flung him back again into a deep pool. He darted to the other bank of the stream, where he earthed. Unearthed again by the huntsmen, and started afresh, he gave the hounds some trouble for about ten minutes longer, when th e y kill e d him, and he was speared in the usual way by th e hunts men. The otter, when fairly spent, c raw l e d up t h e bank near where the Queen was, and the hounds, of course, were upon it. Her Majesty turned away her head while they were worrying the animal." This was to be expected ; but time and custom will eradicate this amiable weakness, and we have no doubt that next season otters may be worried to any extent, without producing the slightest qualm in even the bosom of a Maid of Honour. In these matters use is everything. The little Spanish girl, who may tremble and turn pale at her first bull-fight, in a brief time witnesses all the glory of the contest with smiling face and an applauding fan. glorious as it is to contemplate otter,Chiefs, F t or e ei a gn Minister, with Albert, the enthusiasm Great, however, as is the ah bov r o do a u c r h o ie f v a em r e r n in t: appointed and arrayedfor ~—it . . es a t n ru d c li tio i " sent in a box from Kelso, is in itself noth ing compared no ing compared to its utility as. an example. Thus the tumultuous energy o of Lords the d con sidered, there is really something of national import ance in the otter hunt of Garry- water. There is a troublesome body of persons, calling them ' selves the Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals. These people have in the most meddle some way interfered with the sports of the lower orders. They have forbidden a harmless main of cocks ; they have set their faces against the pleasur able and innocent excitement of dog-fighting ; duck hunting they have denounced as cruelty abominable ; indeed, there is no thorough English sport, enshrined by the wisdom of our ancestors, that they have not condemned as brutal and inhuman. After the news from Blair Athol, we trust that these poeple will feel themselves properly rebuked. Sure we are it will be more than impertinence in them to interfere with the sports of our countrymen. Hence, the bear may again be baited to the delight and edification of Englishmen ; the cock-pit at West minster may echo the triumphant clarion of conquer ing birds, and Copenhagen Fields be once more vocal with the joyous cries of dog-fighting Britons.
