The official returns of the revenue for the year and quarter, made up to Saturday, the 4th instant, ex bibit a most remarkable and gratifying feature—an increase, and, in several instances, to a large amount, of all the ordinary sources of revenue. The Customs, the Excise, the Taxes, the Post-office, and the Crown Lands, show the activity of trade and the prosperity of the country. The only decrease is under the heads of "Property-tax " and "Miscellaneous," but the latter forms no criterion whatever of the state of the revenue, as all chance sums and " god-sends," such as the Chinese ransom, fall into it. The decrease in the former is 57,664/. on the year, while there is an in crease 'on the quarter of 33,126/. The increase in the Customs duty is enormous, amounting to not less than 1,305,4531. For the convenience of the reader, we give' the following brief outline of the abstract. The total ordinary income for the year ending Ja nuary 5, 1845, is 50,081,8871., and for the previous year 49,078,168/. The total income, including imprest and Other moneys, and re-payments of advances, amounts to 51 ,235,538/., that for 1844 being 50,071;9431., thus leqving a clear surplus of 1,163,5951. The Customs produce 20 , 3 78,6721., showing an increase of 1,305,453/. on the year, and an increase of 135;167/. on the quarter. Tl•e'Excise a moun t s t o 12,160,111/., bei ng an increase ' of 365,3041. on the year, and not less than 200.169/, on the quarter. The increase, •under the head of Stamps, is, for the year and' quarter respe c ti ve l y, 185,235/. and 78,005/. The ale o Taxes for the yea r an d quarter show an increase o f 26,0021. and 11,633/. Th e Post-o ffi ce an increase of 83,0001. on the year, and 3,000/. on the uarte The total amount of the Property -tax for the y ea r ; ending Jan. 5, 1845, is 5,191,596/. The Crown Lands and 'Miscellaneous are items of no im portance, and therefore hardly deserve notice. These returns cannot fail to afford satisfaction, and forma source of pride to every subject of the United Kingdom. They attest the power, the energy, and capabilities, of this great country, and while they remove all anxiety respecting the state of the revenue, they at the same time afford a proof that manufac tures, trade, and shipping, are in a healthful condi tion, end that, though wages are small, still there must be employment for the great body of the work ing classes. The increase in the Excise, the Customs, and the Post-office, is th• best sign of the times. What forms a peculiar coincidence, too, in this prosparbus state of the revenue, is that the very party whom Sir ROZNIT PLED and his anti-free trade friends turned out of office must rejoice at the result equally with thei opponents, and even with still more genuine is tisfaction. The opening of the trade with Chins which has given renewed life to the manufacturin, districts, the new tariff, which is beginning to pro duce its effect on the Customs, and other principles a free trade, assumed by Sir ROBERT PEEL as his own all owe their origin to the Melbourne Ministry, whi had the skill to plan them, but owing to the faction ; and unprincipled opposition of the Tories, were not allowed to reap their fruits. The country, in the meantime, however, prospers; the Whigs rejoice al it, and, to their honour throw no obstacles in the way of men who snatched the prize from their hands. Prosperity as well as adversity however, has its troubles, and Sir ROBERT PEEL must now be looking about for remedies to abate the plethora. He will find plenty of advice from brother doctors. One will recommend the abolition of the malt tax, another of the window tax, a third of the duty on soap, a fourth of the inccinc tax—in fact, there will be no end of specifies. All we hope for is, that the Physician-in-Chief will do his duty impar tially, and remove the pressure from that part of the body least able to bear it. - After a struggle, ce,ntinued with more or less in tensity for upwar:is of thirty years, the people of ;he United TII:Igdom obtained Parliamentary Re form. The, main objects of that Reform was to give people more power i n th e C ommons ' Housell e. of Parliament, to -destroy the monopoly of lyarroughs' vested in a few Lords and Commoners, to obtain for the large unrepresented towns their rights and privileges, sanctioned by the genius of the Constitution, and above all, to. establish laws for the benefit not of the noble .and the rich only, but for the whole community. Much as that great measure was crippled in its passage through both Houses, it has, after all, conferred many blessings on the community, and established the great principle that the other two estates of the realm (for the con trol of the people, over the Crown was fully esta blished at the Revolution) may, from time to time, be changed and amended according to circumstances. The part which the Church, and especially the Bench of Bishops, took in that arduous contest, is well known to all. They were regarded as the most bitter opponents of the people's rights; and so strong was the general conviction, that. in the streets, at public meetings, nay, in the very churches, the sacred character of the prelates did not screen them from,. popular indignation, and - the cry became almost universal, " Down with the Bishops." The Bishops alone have forgotten the crisis. Like the old worn ! out Bouanos dynasty, they believe that they hold their tenures by P,ivine right; in blind security they set people and Parliament at defiance, and like men doomed, urge- on their fate. ' HoW else can any rational being account for the palpable, the mon strous attempt, in these days, and in Protestant England, to revive the mummeries of the Catholic religion, and reconcile the Church to the See of Rome ? But if these men are infatuated, the people are not to be the victims. The people have the means of correcting the' evil in their own hands. The Reformed Church was established by law, and by law it can be altered, 'amended, and re stored to its original state. Never was reform more necessary than at the present moment. The tenets of Popery have taken deep root in the Church, the leading bishops openly profess them, many of the leading men at Oxford, the nursery of the Church, of the nobility, and the higher classes are strongly imbued with a spirit in direct hostility to the re formation, and they only watch the opportunity to destroy that noble fabric, which was cemented by the blood of so many martyrs. It is' high time, therefore for the Legislature to provide a remedy against these alarming evils, and the - most obvious, the most effectual; and the most certain remedy too, is to reduce to something like ordinary dimensions the vast patronage and authority of the Episcopal Bench. No twenty-six men have the tenth, nay, the hundredth part of the political power now entrusted to that ecclesiastical body. In fact, it is so enormous, that any reform in the Church, any meddling, as they call it, with Church lands, or any interference whatever with any acquisition, however unjustly acquired, would not have the slightest chance of a fair hearing in the Le *feature. These, however, are not ordinary times; and :t , for the people therefore to seize the opportunity, MA urge on their representatives steps for abating the evil. Why should one man, because he happens to b! Archbishop of CANTERDURY, have the patronage ef2 livings ? Or the Puseyite Bishop of LONDON lei ninety, and his brother of EXETER fifty ? Or the twenty-six Prelates,lwith their appendages, the Deans and Chapters, have in their gift %5043 livings --one fourth of the whole patronage of the. Church of Eng land? This constitutes a power, in such a small com munity, injurious to every department of the State' and dangerous to libarty ; for one of the main objects of established churches is not, as they profess, to teach the pure truths of Christianity, but to keep their flocks in darkness, in order that 'the learned may do mineer over the ignorant. We. appeal to history. When did the Bench of Bishops ever bring forward measures that had any other object in view but their own aggrandisement, and can the spirit which animates them be misunderstood when it is remem bered that all the great Parliamentary enactments of the last twenty years have found that body ever in opposition to the just claims and privileges erf the people ? The abolition of slavery and the slave trade, the abolition of the Test and Corporation Acts, Catholic Emancipation, the education of the people, and the Reform Bill, afford fair specimens of that selfish and grasping disposition for which the Church in all ages has been conspicuous ; yet, with such proofs, the Legislature and the community still allow these men to possess an amount of patronage suffi cient to damage every great and good measure. This patronage, however, is employed Slow, not to obstruct plans of reform, but to carry out one of the wickedest schemes ever devised—the . re-establishment of the Catholic religion in England. But it is hardly necessary to point out the influence which a Puseyite I3ishop must necessarily exercise over the young priesthood, and over the many thousands who look to him for livings or promotion for their relatives and friends. The only way to clip the wings of Puseyism, is to remodel the Church, and, first of all, to make a more equal distribution of its patronage. In Taits Magazine fol. this Month there are some udicious remarks on the subject of the Repeal algal ion, whose special object the writer justly regards as impracticable and even could it, by any possibility, he carried into practice, as detrimental in no ordinary degree to the interests of the three kingdoms, more especially to those of Ireland. Yet, though he ex presses himself decidedly hostile 'to the Repeal crotchet, he is impressed with a profound sense of the power and popularity of the movement, and greatly exaggerates, we think, its effect on the public mind of the sister country. Thus he assures us that it is not only the ardent desire of a 'vast majority of the Irish people, whom misery has left nothing to lose by rebellion and civil war ; but that it is the fixed ideas— the enthusiastic aspiration of a set of men, of whose intellect, , energy, and sincerity in the cause there can be no possible• doubt, though their political sagacity may fairly enough be questioned. Ile. adds,. that the whole commercial and trading 'democracy of three Irish provinces are for it, as one man, and that the opposition of the fourth has already begun to b e so m ewhat equivocal ; that the various municipalities Repeal resolutions; that the Na thiaovnealvcotheudresthrong has pronounced its solemn benediction ; —in a word, that the movement has every attribute of formidableness, depth, breadth, and strength. This picture is exceedingly overcharged; indeed, were it not so, no power on earth—'not even ' that of Mr. O'CoxisELL—.:could keep Ireland in its present state of quiescence. The overruling passion of the hour, h earing down before it all obstacles that reason might throw in its way, Would infallibly find "vent either in the shape of renewed rnonsterLmeetings, or in some less questionable form. Tbe writer in Tait goes on to observe :—" The recentnfirin aastpioleeltosfo: polrirtsehntostatatfaciont are given oxiking co which we have more the.* once urged on the notice of our readers—Mr. O'Coawsu. is not the Repeal movement. The agitator has ceased to be master of the agitation. The magician is impotent to exorcise —has only a qualified and conditional power to co m _ mand—the spirit th"t his spells have evoked. H e cannot tow do quite what he will with his own ; there is a power in the Loyal National Repeal lese•fition THE SUN, LONDON, M'ON,D,A,r MORN' e, behind the chair, and greater than the chair I" This is it nnritteationably not the case at present, whatever it may be, should Sir ROBERT PEEL disappoint the ea ts, pectations of every rational Irishman by the signifi g cant hints which he threw out towards the close of 1. last session. Just now, Mr. O'Coesam. exercises )f as potent an influence as ever he did over the Repeal agitation, which is diminished or increased according o to his sovereign will and pleasure. When he is absent s from the chief scene of action in the Conciliation t - Hall, indulging in the peaceful retirement of Derry nane, the question of Repeal remains in a state of t comparative torpor, only to be roused into activity by his reappearance in the field of agitation. In opposi tion, therefore, to the statement of Tait, we unhesi tatingly maintain that just at present Mr. O'CoNamit is, in the strictest sense of the term, the Repeal move r ment ; though it may be a question how long he will remain so, should circumstances arise to increase the hostility of the agitators towards the Union with England. If the Premier, for instance, scared by the clamour of the Irish Orangemen, who have already expressed their feelings in ao unequivocal manner, and by the opposition of the English Church digni taries who will be pretty sure to fraternise with thorn, narrows his views on the subject of Irish national education, and backs craftily out of the assur ances which he gate last year in Parliament, the Re pealers, taking prompt advantage <if his infirmity of purpose, and invested by it with tenfold moral influence over the mind of their disappointed and indignant countrymen, will resume the agitation with more reckless energy than ever; and should Mr. O'CON ELL evince an indisposition, to go the whole hog with them, and lend the weight of his sanction to all their revottitionarr extravagances, then, in that ca,se—but in that case only—he.will, to use the words of Tait, "_have become -impotent to ex orcise the .spirit )vbich. jsis spells have cycled." ;jut. r we. anticipate no such .contingency. - Mr. O'Cosixer.r. knows well how 'to play play his game; and knows also that the . Repeal tation is by no means so deeply seated in Ireland as he would have ua.here in England believe it is. He is the salt of its life—the breath of its nostrils—the fuel that supplies .the fire, .and when he relaxes in his, exertions the cause sinks for the time igto a state of ppsitive inertness. Madrid journals of the 27th ult. have been re ceived, but they bri ng no:nows of the slight es t i n t e r rest.

The few Paris papers published on Thursday are chiefly occupied with the addresses presented to the Kura on New Year's-day, and his MAJESTY'S replies, which possess more interest than is usually found in these interchanges of compliments. This arises chiefly from the KING'S visit to England, the settlement of the disputes with Morocco, and the universal wish expressed for peace by all parties. The POPE'S Nuncio represented the Diplomatic body, and the Duke PASQUIER and M. SAUZET' delivered addresses in the name of the Chambers. The Nuncio prudently made no allusion to the KING'S journey to England, a journey not at all gratifying to one or two of the Sovereigns whom he represented; but both the Presi dents allude to it in the most marked terms, and regard it as a guaranteee for peace among the nations of Europe. The language of' M. SAUZIST is peculiarly happy and complimentary, not so much to the Eng. lish SOVERRIGN, as to that country which first este 'bliihed on a solid basis constitutional government. " France," said he, "is proud of her Km, and shows her pride in him to all Europe. Wherever your MAIESTY may bend your steps,' you must be received with the respect due to the name of France, with the admiration which is inspired by a life of de'votedness, services, and trials, with that irresistible influence which is ever attached to great missions fulfilled with fortitude. These sentiments must pre vail in that land which was the first cradle of consti tutional liberty. It belongs to two great nations—. both proud of their history—both rendered illustrious by having passed through great struggles—both admired at present for their rivalry in intelligence and in the peaceful arts, to aggrandise themselves by a mutual esteem, and watching with equal solicitude over the maintenance of their reciprocal interests--of finding in the conviction of their independence and power, a common bond for labouring in the cause of that liberty and civilization of which they are and must continue to be the firmest supporters. This work of order and of liberty,we have concurred with your MA JESTY to strengthen in our country. The days of storms have fled; the time of repose and of consolation for your heart has arrived. May Paormsrica long give you the enjoyment of it; after so many trials." To this the KING replied :—" It is, as you have to well ob served, for the progress of civilization, to efface be tween two great nations, so worthy of esteeming each other, the last traces of those old animosities which have lighted so many wars and caused so many evils, and to give birth in their place to that reciprocal good will, which will secure to them the enjoyment in com- Mon of the benefits of 'peace. In the course of my visit to the Queen of ENGLAND, I was surrounded by the manifestation of this sentiment, and I was able to ascertain that the advantages of the happy concord; which now subsists between the two Governments,' were justly appreciated by England." The Opposition journals, published on Thursday, continue to express great indignation at the ex pressions said to have been used by the Kllco when congratulating M. DZBELLETME on his election as one of the Vice-Presidents of the Chamber. They denounce such language as uncon stitutional and a Wanton interference of royalty with the free deliberation of the people's representatives. But the journals who thus complain have fifty times committed similar errors. They have, contrary to all constitutional principles, attacked the KING under the title of the " chateau," or some other cognomen equally intelligible, a practice totally at variance With the principles of a constitution which admit* that the KING can do no wrong, and throws the re sponsibility. of every measure on his advisers. But the fact is constitutional government in France is j only in its infancy, and time and experience are re quired to instruct both XING and people in the etiquette adopted by all 'parties in a country where the rules of debate, as well, as writing in political journals,. are universally admitted and practised. As a specimen of the anger displayed by these journals, we give the following from the France : "We should like to know for what ':bject the Cabinet publishes these words, and risks an t Ttempt so little in harmony with constitutional prescrip' Sons. Is it an act of vexation or an ill-advised piece of t,cties, a vengeance against the Tuileries, or a calculation with regard to the Chamber ? They may be both one' and tke other. M. Guizot would not be sorry to pay back to the Château malice for malice, and on the other hand he would find it piquant to , give a hint, by means of the royal words; to his friends who are absent to come to their posts. This would be all fair warfare, but the proceeding is some what late. Nobody is ignorant at present in the majority that, at all periods, Louis Philippe has, ostensibly sus tained to the end all the Ministries that' have been over turned for fourteen'years. Each has had the satisfac tion4l,f hearing him repeat, 4 I am 'with yoa, and cora; pletely of your way 'of thinking.' That, however, has not prevented the *risk. In the present case what has just occurred at the Tuileries may well precipitate IL" The KING'S remarks, however, appear to have had some effect. On Thursday the Chamber of Deputies met for the purpose of appointing a Committee to draw up the Aires" in answer to the Speech from the Throne, when ; Ministers had a vast majority.

Some time ago we called attention to' the unsatisfac tory state of the Stainp Act, so far as regards its effect on banking. An the session is aPprOaching; a hope is expressed among the banking interest that some amend ment may take place, ands. summary of the state of the law that seems to require amendment is given• in the Bankers' Magazine, with the view of showing the public what is the real position of the case. Of the statements made in that work respecting bankers' licenses and letters of credit, we may usefully- avail ourselves. With respect to bankers' licenses, it is provided by the Stamp Act that every banker who issues ,totei shall annually pay 391. to the Government 'fin. a license to do so, and r, furthe shall take out a s eparate license in respect of each town or place where. such notes are issued or drawn. Under the Act 7th and Bth - Victoria, c. 32, there is a proviso that it shall not be necessary to take out more than four licenses for any number of places at which notes Were issued under four licenses prior to the 6th of May, ,1844. The Act, 9th George IV., cap. 23. provides that - bankers (except those • residing within three 'miles of Loudon, and th , ie in Ireland and Scotland) may draw and issip , unite:loped bills and notes on , payment ,of p'ot., per an num, fer, ,a lieense, _and an ad valoreqi duty en the amount.. issued. . 'his enactment frees the bankers from the necessity of continuing their notes in circulation after therare too much worn for use.' How - ever, one result of 'the Act is this—that 'Many hankprs who do not issue notes, and compound' for stamp duty on the Mils ther . issUe, have: to pay the MVPe amount fOr license as a . banker Who, in iddition to hi bills, has an 'extensive note eirmilatiott. The result of the law thus pres Sing unequally on the no - n-imsuin g banker is,' that an imluCeMent is Offered to evade its provisions. It is. a notorious.fact, tbat.many bankers, instead, of taking out a license to drair.unstamped bills, draw letters :of credit payable after a stated period. That these are not transferable, like' bills, is not very material, as the Londonngent pays the letters of credit on the simple 'endorsement of the holder Without identi• fication. The revenue thug sustains •an obvious •loss. It is suggested as a'rensady that the 'powers Of issuing notes and drawing unstamped bills should be granted under Separate licenses. As' fnr letters of Credit, the law respeetink theta seems to..piesent peculiar difficul ties, se that it is doubtful whether, according. to the 55th George 111., c. 114, they are .legal without stamps at all, although they are in constant use and their con venience is generally acknowledged.— Tietes..!
