TIMES.—Dr. Johnson says that the more human misery is inquired into, .the more may it be traced to petty dis comforts. Last night's Budget proceeds on this principle. As far as it goes it is a clearance of small but vexatious items—the weeds of taxation. We don't begin very grand. Like the charity children in the front of a procession, the least come first. The nation is to sacrifice 45,0001. to equalize the duties on flint and bottle-glass. The insignificant sum of 25,0001. releases vinegar from taxation, and is a great relief to many branches of manufacture. At the expense of 100,0001. a great reduction is to be effected in the duty on marine insurances—a good beginning, which a prudent Go vernment will be sure to follow up, for what can be worse than a; tax on prudence—a penalty on virtue ? Then came cod news for little boys and girls, who havea right to come for a bit of this wonderful surplus. With 9 ,0001. the tax on currants is to be reduced from 225. to 15s. per cwt. The great falling off in the importation of currants was really one of the most pathetic symptoms of the recent dis tress. As far as the poor are concerned, the golden apples of the Hesperides are not a greater fiction than the roast-beef and plum-pudding of England. The duty on foreign coffee is to be reduced from Bd. to 6d. a-pound. This great boon to the poor will cost only 50,000/. Then follows a significant hint at the consequences of taxation. The duty on the spurious substitute, chicory, is to be raised, The next item is important, and will raise a qualm or two, unnecessarily we think, in the hearts ofour agricultu ral friends. The duty on raw wool, producing 100,0001., is to be abolished. This puts the finishing stroke to a long burden on British manufactures, and adds fresh obsoleteness to such historical curiosities as the act compelling burial in woollen. The whole of these reductions amount to about 387,0001. COnsidering that the Minister was much in the situation of a woman with a large, hungry, and ill-clad family, going to market with ten shillings in her pocket, he has not done amiss. We now see the instructive force of the promised issue of half-farthings by our thrifty Premier. To these changes must be added a reduction of the differential duty on foreign sugar, in favour of States not tainted with slavery. The additional duty in their case is to be only 10s. The effect on the revenue, we suppose, cannot be easily calculated, as it is not stated. 4 .nd now for the income-tax. It is to be considered next year. Perhaps the increasing surplus, and perhaps the general improvement in trade, may then allow us to define its somewhat indefinable duration. But to hope for its early removal, we must have the faith of the sports man, who always went out as soon as he saw a patch of blue sky large enough to make a pair of—what shall we say ? gaiters, we suppose it was. POST.—The Chancellor of the Exchequer laid before the House of Commons, last evening, his annual statement of the actual receipts and disbursements of the past, and the anticipated revenue and expenditure of the current years. He commenced his financial exposition by avowing that , just his estimated income of the year ended had been greatly exceeded by the actu income. Mr Goulburn next made the avowal that his calculations of the expenditure of the last year had far exceeded the actual disbursements. The charge for the debt on the consolidated fund had fallen short of his estimate by 50,000/. The expense for the army had not been so great by 500,0001. as he had anticipated; and the navy had required less by 650,0001. than he had calcu lated. Taking together the increase of revenue received over his last year's estimate, and the decrease of expenditure below his last year's computation, the Chancellor of the Exchequer announced that, instead of 700,0001. sur plus which he predicted twelve months. ago, the actual surplus of receipts over disbursements, for the year ending the sth of April, was 4,160,000/. From this gross surplus on the past year, 2,749,0001., the de ficiency of last year, being deducted, the net surplus available was 1,400,0001. So far for the year ,lust ended. Having stated the results of the last, and his anticipations of the present year, Mr. Goulburn considered the reductions of duties which he would recommend. As the experiment of the Tariff had not been fairly tried, and as the surplus could not be regarded as a permanentrone, he left the question of the property-tax for deliberation next year, when it must come under the deliberation of Parliament. The present surplus in hand he proposed to apply to the augmentation of the balances of the Exchequer, so as to render the Govern ment more independent of the Bank, and to conduct their business on a surer basis. This he thought better than a present remission of taxation. At the conclusion of his statement, Mr. Goulburn announced that it was his intention, when moving the sugar duties, to propose, that from and after November next the sugar produced in foreign countries, which did not raise the produce by means of slave labour, should be admitted into this country at a differential duty of 10s.; that is, at a duty of 345. per cent., our colonial sugar paying a duty of 245. Our treaty with the Brazils, by which they were placed on the same footing as the most favoured nations, expiring in November, is the reasocitart-hy November was fixed on by Mr. Goulburn for this change. The Chancellor of the Exchequer c oncluded his statement e by congratulating himself and the country op the thealtered aspect which our finances presented this year trompre ceding ones. HERALD.—The Chancellor of the Exchequer made last night his financial statement, and highly gratifying to the country that statement must be; although, no doubt, the agreeable communication is not enhanced by the pleasure of surprise. The losses and diQiculties to which the country was exposed during the later years of the Whig Administra tion, made us all jealous observers of our financial condition, and most are, in consequence, as well apprised of the actual state of the revenue as the Chancellor of the Exchequer him self. As far, therefore, as the financial and comme rc i a l pros perity of the country is concerned, Mr. Goulburn could tell little last night which claimed attention by its novelty. The net revenue of last year amounted, he said, to upwards of 52,800,000/. (we omit the lesser fi gures ) , exceeding- his esti mate pf 50,100,000/. by 2,700,0001., and exceeding the ex penditure o 1 the country by, as we understood the reportof the Right Hon.; Gentleman's speech, 4,100,0001., and thus enabling him to, make good at once the whole deficiency of the preceding year, 2,700,0001., with a handsome surplus of 1,400,000/. still remaining. The great excess of the revenue be yond his estimate the Right Hon. Gentleman accounted for by the unexpected productiveness of many taxer—core, 800,000/. ; wine, 350,0001. ; foreign wool, 200,0001. ; tea, 300,000/. ; sugar, 200,0001., &c. The Chancellor of the Exchequer next explained his purpose and his expectations for the present year—rating the public ex penditure of the country at 48,600,0001., the probable income at about 51,800,0001., which• leaves a balance of more than three millions sterling in appearance, 2,400,000/. in fact. This is, we believe, a pretty fair outline of Mr. Goulburn's financial statement, and it is gratifying on both sides; gra tifying, first, in .the proof it affords that the Government is happily in a condition to exercise a choice in dealingwith the finances of the country—gratifying next, in the assurance that we have escaped from that most ruinous of all systems, " whether to an individual or to nations, the " hand to malt system ,• and that her Majesty's Ministers have fairly resolved to think a little of the future—a degree of providence of which their predecessors for many years have certainly set them no example. From the slight sketch that we have offered, it will be seen that the _present istpeperity is made the MOP °flatus'. aavinp pot by. *vow g gailaut podiep SUPERIOR CANDLES.

ADVERTISER.—The Budget of the Chancellor of the Exchequer, so eagerly looked forward to for some time past, was last night brought before the House. Though it will, on several accounts, excite dissatisfaction, there are features in it which merit commendation. The principle which per ' vades it is good, but the application of that .priuciple is not so judicious as it might have been. The Budget does homage to the free-trade principle, and, so far, therefore, it is satisfactory.. But it is to be regretted that the Chancellor of the Exchequer should have contented himself with a few peddling reductions of duty on articles which, with the ex ception of coffee, are not in general use. What benefit, we should like to k now , can the community derive from reduc ing the duty on fli nt-glass, or on vinegar, or on currants ? The better course would have been to apply the principle of reduction to some one or more of those articles whiCh are of general consumption. In referring to the reduction which he proposes to make on the duty on marine assurances —a reduction of four-fifths in some cases, and of more than one-half in all cases—the Chancellor of the Exchequer stated, that When Lord Althorp made a similar reduction, in 1834, he found that in two years afterwards, owing to the great increase in the amount of business, the revenue derived from this source was as great as before. And such is his faith in the financial wisdom of the reduction which he him self proposes to make, that he fully expects that in two years the amount of revenue for marine insurances will be as great as it is at the existing high rate of duty. But the most de cid6d and most important recognition or free-trade principles, is made in that part of the Bight Hon. Gentleman's speech in which he entirely abolishes the duty on wool, and conse quently opens our ports to the admission of that article from all parts of the world. Now, if the duty be thus imme.• diately and totally repealed on wool, why not agree to the immediate and total repeal of the duty on corn? The prin ciple which justifies the reduction in the former case requires the reduction in the latter. In referring to this intended repeal of the duty on wool, the Chancellor of the Exchequer thus expressed himself:—" I have thought it better to remit both the duty on export and import of weal, and to leave the trade open. That duty produced last year, altogether, about tb..7, sum of 100,0001., and we must take that amount as the loss which will be sustained on that particular article by the arrangement which I shall recommend to the House. But I cannot but feel that, although we shall on the article itself sustain a loss, yet we shall give an additional stimulus to the industry of the community engaged in that branch bf our manufactures likely to be benefited by this arrangement, which I believe will more than compensate for the loss we shall Sustain.' " This is exactly the ground which the-advo cates of free-trade have all along taken. The passage we have quoted seems snore like an extract from a speech of Mr. Cobden, in Covent-garden Theatre, than of a Tory Chancel lor of the Exchequer in the House of Commons. All that is wanted is, that the Right lion. Gentleman should be con sistent. .et him but follow out his own principles, and the country- asks - no more. The Chancellor - the- Exchequer - cannot long stop where he is; he must continue in his on ward course until he has fairly landed on the shores of Free trade. THE THRONE OF SWEDEN. The Hamburgh papers of the 26th instant, contain the following communication, dated Munich, April 20 : " Though it might have been pretty confidently expected that the Prince of Wasa would take some steps, on occasion of the change in Sweden by the death of the late King, to assert his claims, yet the manner in which he has done this excited here, at least, no little surprise. The news Of the declaration (which, though not in words, yet in spirit, is equivalent to a protest against the accession of King Oscar, which the. Prince has addressed to the Courts of London, Paris, Vienna, Berlin, and St: Petersburgh), arrived here at the same time as Count Stedingk, who has brought to our Court the official notification of the accession of the reigning King and Queen of Sweden. Besides the unpleasant. feel ings which are connected with any claim of a pretender to a throne, it may easily be conceived that considering the inti mate ties of relationship between - our Court and that of Sweden, this affiiir is looked on in a more serious light than elsewhere, and perhaps -than it really deserves, undet the present state of the political world. It is affirmed that this declaration of the Prince of Wasa is so drawn up that it requires no reply 6otn the Courts to which it is addressed. This declaration ofhis Royal Highness, so far as it is tanta mount to a protest against the exclusion of the house of Wasa from the succession to the Swedish throne, is one of the most interesting documents of the kind of our time, and therefore deserves a public examination." ATTORNEYS.—One hundred and thirty-six gentle men have given notice of their intention to apply, on the last day of the present term, to be admitted to practise as attor neys in her Majtsty's Court of Queen's Bench. There are also twenty-five notices of application for a renewal of certi ficates to practise, and five to be admitted by Judges' orders, making a total of 166. WINDSOR TROTTING MATC11.......011 Saturday last Mr. Thomas, the Secretary of the Royal Society for the Pre vention of Cruelty to Animals, applied to R. Blunt, Esq., the Mayor of Windsor, for summonses against William Mosely and Henry Bond, for having wantonly and brutally ill treated their horses in the trotting-match, which took place on the 22d instant, when one of the horses died. _ DOVER AND BOULOGNE.—A deputation from the inhabitants of Dover, consisting of thellayor of Dover, Mr. Latham, Mr. J. W. Ledger, and Mr. Birmingham, lately waited upon the General Steam Navigation Coinpany, to request the Directors of that Company to run a steam-bolt between Dover and Boulogne. The Directors have complied with the request, arid have appointed to run the Magician, which is to be placed on the station on Saturday morning next. This decision on the part of the General Steam Navi gation Company has been received with delight by the in habitants of Diver, the Magician being admirably adapted for the service, and for beauty and speed perhaps unequalled by any steam-packet of her class. THE WATERMAN STEAM•BOAT (NO. 10.)—An un fortunate accident occurred to this gallant little craft when off Hastings on Saturday afternoon. It appears that she arrived at Dover from Ostend early in the morning of Satur day, and left that port about noon on a pleasure trip to Hastings, having on board a party of the Directors of the Company, Mr. Penn, the engineer, and several other gentle men. She arrived at Hastings about half-past two, and in passing the town unfortunately too near in shore struck on a dangerous reef off the Priory, known as the Castle Rocks, which she passed over, and injured her bottom. It being found that the water was flowing fast into her, she was put about and run on the sand off the Parade, where she filled as the tide flowed, and at high water the hull was covered. A quantity of empty casks were flung round her during the evening, by means of which she was got further in, and on Sunday she was pumped out and had her leaks stopped.' She has since floated off, and been removed opposite the Priory stale for the purpose of undergoing repairs. The reef on which the vessel struck is stated to be extremely dangerous even to the most experienced pilots. •Tun SHriirrs' FUND.—Yesterday the half-yearly meeting of the supporters of this fund was held at the London Coffee-house, Ludgate •hill, Mr. Sheriff Moon in the chair. Mr. John Cooper, secretary, read the report, which, after detailing the many schemes planned for ensnaring in vice youthful prisoners al' both sexes discharged from gaol, stated that the receipts for the years 1842 and 1843, in cluding a balance from 1841, amounted to 661/. 1 ls. 10d. 162/. 19s. was subscribed by the present Sheriffs and their friends. Of this sum 1901. was distributed last year as fol lows :-541. amongst 181 prisoners discharged from Newgate ; 24/. 7s. 6d. amongst 69 discharged from Whitecross-street ; and 121.95. 6d. amongst those discharged from the Corapter. The sum of 500/. was funded. The report, in conclusion, stated that the grand object of the fund was the establishment of an asylum for the reception of women discharged from prison, which would be ultimately erected. Upon the motion of Mr. Under-Sheriff Anderton, seconded by Sir M. Montefiore, the report was adopted. After very strong appeals by Mr. Anderton, the Rev. Mr. Weeks, Alderman Johnson, _and other members, on behalf of the charity, it was resolved to have a public dinner to defray the expenses of building an asylum. Thanks were then voted to Alderman Johnson, the treasurer, Mr. Cooper, the secretary, and the Chairs an. LYCEUM THEATRE.—.LSSt night an extremely lively piece, under the denomination of Polliamania, was pro duced at this theatre. Its chief humour consists in the plea sant satirical view taken of the prevailing fashions and follies of the day. A young fortune-hunter, Adolphus Merton (Mr. A. Wigan), pursues his inamorata, Laura Dorringen (Miss Woolgar), to a sequestered village, and introducing himself to her father, a matter-of-fact gentleman of the old school, as a medical practitioner, engages to cure her of low spirits by the application of a newly-discovered specific called the " Polka." The old gentleman, though at first a little startled at the slang phraseology of his visitor, at length con sents to entrust her to his treatment, and when the dance is begun its fascination is such that all the household, including the old-fashioned gentleman himself, are constrained to join in it. In this part of the piece much amusement was afforded by the comic actions of Mr. and Mrs. Keeley, w h o performed the parts of a male and female domestic in their awkward at tempts to imitate the graceful movements of Missnor rin g ton and her lover. The piece was highly successful.

BATTY'S STUD.—The Westminster-road, in the neighbour hood of Astley's Amphitheatre, was crowded this morning by persons anxious to witne ss t h e extraordinary feat Willeh Mr. Embury, a member of M r . B atty ' s company, had 'under taken to perform, viz., to drive four-and-twenty in hand through the crowded streets of the metropolis. At one o'clock Mr. Embury left Mr. Batty's stables in a four-wheeled vehicle, drawn by twelve pair of horses, the whole of which he had in hand, and apparently completely under command. Mr: Batty was on the box with him, and in the vehicle were the mem bers of the orchestra of the establishment. Mr. Emlinry drove down the York-road in gallant style, at the rate of about six. miles an hour, and proceeded on his journey amidst the cheers of the multitude. He exhibited great cleverness in turning the corners, and in the general management of his team, and alt another, this may be considered the most extra ordinary feat in driving ever recorded. THE NORTHERN Cincurr.---Mr. Justice Coltman and Mr. Baron Rolfe, on their return from the Nortbint Circuit, which commenced . on the 17th of February,, and did not terminate until the 13th of April, immediately informed the Secretary Ibr the Home Department that it was inirretile for any human exertions to do justice to her Majest)7a sub jects on such au extensive circuit; and that , although they leave causes untried at Durham, at York , and at Liverpoo l.: remedy thiS great evil, we understand that the propose to have recourse to the injudic ious Midland Circuit—a measure expedien v t el of m add t mg the county of York to the more manifestly unjust it is impossible to imagine. The bar of the Northern' Circuit ha ve a claim in the native of : a vested interest in the district through which their labours have extended; and the fairest way to them, and the most Satisfactory to the public, :would be (as the barristers, silk and stuff, are . sufficiently numerous) to make a division of the present circuit between them into two circuits. There would then be an average of 150 causes on each circuit, which to the bars thus formed on the new circuits, would bring a profit nearly equal in amount to that which each barrister in business now receives; and in general, each of the circuits would have a greater number of causes than falls to the lot of any other circuit. —Times.

EXT RACT FROM OLD MOORE'S ALMANACK FOR MAY, 1644. (3agg or HEALTIL—The human frame often suffers greatly during this season, the hurtful influence of which is assisted by the premature adoption of the dress of summer. Those on whom the blight of consumption has fallen, frequently sink under it about this period, though the disease had commenced its ravag_s many weeks or months anterior to its fatal close. Al unnecessary exposure on the part of such delicate persons to the morning and evening chills, should be carefully avoided. Also the full and plethoric will be be. nefltted by the use of cooling medicines, as PA RR'S LIFE PILLS, and very temperate diet; as a tendency of blood to the head is not uncommon among such, giving rise to apr,plexy and other fatal die. cases of the brain Young and stout persons even require some cool's); purgative, as PARR'S LIFE PILLS, which will lessen the heat of the skin, and perfectly cleanse the system."

WILSON'S SCOTTISH ENTERTAINMENTS. —Last night, at the Music Hall, Store-street, Mr. Wilson gave his favourite entertainment of " Anither Night wi' Burns," when he sang a number of the poet's most admired songs with his accustomed success. The songs of " Mary Morison," " Poortith Cauld," and " Wilt thou be my Dearie," all charming strains, wedded to exquisite old airs, were delight fully given ; while the humorous ditties of " Sherratnuir" and "My spouse Nancy" produced mirth unbounded. Mr. Wilson announced that next Monday he would give a new entertainment, entitled "Jacobite Relics," and sing a number of the most popular songs of 'l5 and '45. This is a fine field for Wilson, and he will doubtless add another wreath to his brow by his resuscitation of some of those delightful and in teresting songs which worked so powerfully on the feelings of the people during the times alluded to. We hope he will give us " Lewie Gordon," "The Blackbird," and some of the plaintive ones, as well as those rousing ones he knows so well how to give. He himself is a good judge, however, of what will please the public, and the selection will no doubt be an excellent one. We see that Mr. Wilson resumes his morning entertainments in the Hanover-square Rooms to morrow' w hen of course he will be greeted by a brilliant assemblage of fashionables.

Mrs. Gore and Mrs. Trollope, two of the cleverest female writers of the age, contribute each an admirable picture of life and character, severally entitled " Mili cent, or Summer and Winter," and " The Robertses on their Travels." From the popular humourists, " Tit marsh" and Leman Blanchard, we have a most amusing little story, called " The Partie Fine," from the first, and a pleasant sketch, entitled "Deceased People whom we meet with Daily," from the other ; to which may , be added, a laughable anecdote by the author of" Peter Priggins," with the title of " Ilk Bit of Preferment ;" an anonymous paper bearing the title, " The 11l- Humourist, or Our Recantation ;" and a humorous essay "On the Duplicity of Men." Horace Smith takes "Lachrymose Writers" for his subject ; James Kenney finds a more pleasant one in " Mrs. Hope, the Fortune Teller ;" and John Poole affords equal entertainment to the reader with "The Beauty of Brighton." Among several sterling papers still left to enumerate, we must point to the ".Recreations in Natural History," "More Reminiscences of the late Prir_ce Talleyrand,' and " The Medical Student's" conclusion of his striking story called Marianne Esterling.": Contents of Bell's Life in London, of Saturday and Sunday last, April 28 :—Five long and wide folio columns of Newmarket and Chester, . the Curragh Meeting, China Racing at Chusan, Ostend Rowing Match, continuation of Winning Greyhounds, Cricketing at Allahabad (65th Regiment and Station), Calcutta Cricket in g , List o f Royal Yacht Squadron, 100 advertisements conn ected with sporting matters, &c.

Among other novel ties, they introduced, in a piece called The Trumpeter's Daughter, the celebrated " Polka," which was nightly en cored, and literally created quite a furor from the Vice-regal throne downwards. On their way to London, they intro duced the " Polka," last Thursday evening, at Liverpool, giving it at once a decided popularity, and filling the house to an overflow in every part, so much so that to please the many hundreds disappointed, they have promised to dance it again on Thursday and Friday next. CARLOTTA. G u ist.—(From a Correspondent)._ The obstinacy of M. Pilet, the Director of the Academie Royal, had nearly prevented this charming danseuse from appearing on the night of her benefit. By her Parisian en gagement she is bound, under a considerable penalty, to pre sent herself in person, on Friday, in Paris, and it is by the enterprising spirit and decision of Mr. Lumley that this has been rendered possible. The instant the curtain of her Majesty's Theatre drops on the graceful poses of this gifted dancer, she will hasten to the Dover Railway, where a spe cial train will convey her to Folkestone, there a steamer of the first class (with steam up) will bear her to Boulogne, whence a carriage and four horsed, preceded by a courier, will land her, we trust, in safety in Paris.
