Few are prepared for a general election, and yet the on dit is, that the present Parliament is not to meet again, consequently a few who think they are alone n the secret, are quietly, but very earnestly, canvassing their constituents, in a friendly way, not as it they were in any alarm about their seats, but simply exhibiting an officious attention, as if they were desirous of serving all the people they call upon in the metropolis—one name absorbs all the interest —not exactly for a seat in Parliament, because their ambition has always pointed to another office. But it the whole population of the metropolis were polled to-morrow, Messrs E. MOSES and SON would be voted the chettest, the best, the most extensive Clothiers, and the greatest benefactors in the kingdom to all classes. In the field they choose to occupy, they were reformers. Through their exertions, and the employment of their talent and capital, the price of Clothing, which was a complete bar to the well dressing of all persons of limited income, was reduced one-half, which brought it within the means of even the humble classes, who can now dress respectably out of business, and creditably in it ; I for they not only procure things cheap, but durable; in fact, Messrs. E. Moses and Son have so completely laid them selves out with their immense staff of the first designers, fitters, ousters, and workmen In Europe, for the supply of rich and poor, exalted and humble, fashionable and plain, that they are not men for a class, but men et the people. By employing a capital that would buy up the productions of half the factories, they command the markets, and the public have the benefit of their cheap pur chases, for their profit has always been uniformly small, because they hare preferred to sell a hundred suits to any body else's one, and gain by numbers what others unfairly gain by exorbitant profits. Messrs. E. Noses and Son hare every garment made of the best material of the kind—they mark every article with their unvarying price, in figures which everybody can understand ; and if any one should feel dissatisfied after purchasing, they receive back the article and return the money. Their noble Mart, at the corner of Aldgate and the Minories, is thrown open to the public, whether purchasers or not, and they invite the visitors in London to inspect the first stock in the world. Nor is their West-end branch less at tractive, in New Oxford•street, :corner of Hart-street. At bath these places there is such an assortment of Sportsmen's Dresses, from head to foot, as was never seen elsewhere, comprising every article desirable for the river and the field, light, strong, and weather-proof.

(The evidence of Joseph Timm, Esq., continued from The Sun of Saturday.) Mr. T. BARING—The return in relation to sche dule (C) includes the portion of the dividends upon public funds which is payable in Ireland ?—Persons residing in Ireland are exempt from that tax in re spect of the dividends on the funds paid to them in Ireland. Do you suppose there are any evasions in that re spect to any considerable amount ?—I have no means of knowing what those evasions might be. Are there no means of preventing evasions which you could suggest ?—There are means provided by the Act itself, and I am not aware of any other that I could suggest. Would it not be a check supposing the same system was adopted by the Bank of Ireland which is adopted by the Bank of England, of deducting first the in come-tax, and leaving the claimants to prove their right of exemption ?—lt certainly would be a means of preventing evasion, but I apprehend that the par ties who in that case are chargeable are compara tively few, and therefore you would impose on many a great inconvenience for the purpose of getting the tax from a few. You think that there are only a few who would be liable to income• tax if the Income-tax Act was strictly in force ?—I think that few persons receive their di vidends in Ireland from the funds, who are not resi dent there ; those who are resident there are not chargeable. The whole amount of dividends paid in Ireland upon the public debt is stated to be 1,436,491/., and the amount returned as liable to income-tax, 106,3091.; have you any means of ascertaining whe ther that is a proper return ?—No; I am not aware of any means except those provided by the Aot of Parliament, to which I will refer. Mr. DISRAELI—What 'are the means provided in the Act of Parliament ?—By the Act 5 and 6 Vic., c. 35, a. 90, it is provided that persons receiving divi dends payable by the Bank of Ireland, on behalf of persons not resident in Ireland, shall deliver a decla ration that they receive them on behalf of persons not resident in Ireland. Mr. VESEY—Am I to understand from that, that a person resident in England, who receives dividends from the Bank of Ireland, is liable to income-tax, even though the amount of those dividends is not transmitted to England ?—Yes ; a person resident in England. And he is liable to a penalty if he does not make a return ?—lt does not appear that there is any penalty provided if you go to Ireland and receive them in person. Mr. RICARDO—In England we get our dividends from the Bank, less the income-tax ?—Yes. If I had Irish stock, would my income-tax be de ducted before I received my dividend ?—Not if you received it there in person, unless it were known that you were not resident in Ireland. I suppose the stock to stand is my own name ? Describing you as resident in England? Describing me as resident in England ?—ln that case it would be the duty of the Commissioners for assessing the income-tax on the funds in Ireland, to assess you in the same manner as in England. Whoever receives it ?—Just so. _ _ . Mr. J. WlLsoN—But would it be deducted by the Bank on payment of the dividend, or would it come for assessment under schedule (D) ?—lt would be deducted by the Bank. Is there a provision for that ?—Ye s . CHANCELLOR, of the EXCHEQUER—Have the good ness to look at the return before you, to which you have been previously referred, and state the amount of stock on which the dividends are assessed under schedule (C) in Ireland ?—" Amount of dividends assessed under schedule (C) in,the public, funds in Ireland, 106,3091." CHAIRMAN—For what year ?—The year ended the sth April, 1549. Mr. T. BARlNG—Schedule (B) includes all sale. ries ?--Yes. Do the salaries of Government officers pay income tax in Ireland P--The income-tax is chargeable unless in the case of an office the duties of which are neces sarily performed by a person resident in Ireland. The Lord-Lieutenant pays no income-tax, then ? The Secretary for Ireland pays no income-tax ? —No. Mr. J. WiLsoN—ls not the distinction, salaries which are paid in Ireland; is there any income-tax charged,upon public salaries, if they are piid in Ire land ?—Yes ; although paid in Ireland, unless the salary was paid to an officer whose duties required his permanent residence in Ireland, it would be chargeable. Is any public salary paid in Ireland except for an Irish officer ; is not the distinction that it is paid in Ireland from the Irish Exchequer ?—Yes. Alr. T. BARlNG—Schedule E includes salaries and pensions, and I find by the return which has been alluded to, that the amount upon which the income tax is paid is 82,7321., yielding 2,413/. ; can you ex plain to the Committee what are the class of salaries that really pay income-tax ?—No, I cannot. CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER—AII Govern- ment officers, such as the army and ordnance, serving temporarily in Ireland ?—Yes. Mr. T. BARlNG—Therefore the officers of the army employed in Ireland pay income-tax ?—They do. The civil officers do not pay income-tax ?—Not if they be permanently resident in Ireland. Mr. Disuazu—ls the Chief Secretary paid from the Irish Exchequer ?—I do not know. Lord IL VANE-If the Chief Secretary for Ireland were an Englishman, would he in that case pay in come-tax upon his salary as Secretary for Ireland ? Ile is usually a Member of Parliament ; that would exempt him. He might be an English Member of Parliament, and with a residence in England ; would he be liable to pay income-tax upon his salary as Secretary for Ireland?—Not if he were in lingland, only in atten dance on Parliament, or, I think, with the sanction of the Lord-Lieutenant. Mr. Hoitsmex—Will you turn to the exemption in clause 148 ?—" Nothing herein contained shall extend, or be construed to extend, to charge any person resi dentin Ireland with the duties contained in the said Schedule Ein respect of any public o ffi ce or employ ment, the duties whereof are necessarily and perma nently performed in Ireland." Mr. RICARDO—WouId a staff officer in Ireland pay duty there ? I should think that be would. The same exemption is given under the property and in come-tax as is given from the assessed taxes.

The difficulty of securing an exact fit from a stock of ready made clothing is often a cause of complaint with the public, arising from the want of a sufficient variety of sizes. Every obstacle, however, in this respect, is entirely removed by lIYAM and CO., whose Stock of Clothing for immediate wear is so varied in size and make, as to ensure a perfect adaptation to personal peculiarities. It is not the practice of MYAM and CO. to retain the stale stock of past seasons (as is often the case), a practice which is rendered im possible, from the circumstance of the enormous sales which the articles of iIYAM and CO. continually command. The best, the most extensive, and the cheapest assortment of Gentlemen's and Youth's Dress is, beyond question, that of lIYAM and CO. Where a person, through limited means, was obliged to confine him self to one suit, he can now assume two suits a season ; and if auy doubt of this assertion be at all entertained, an inspection and com parison of prices will at once remove it. For extent, variety, no velty, quality, and cheapness, the Salo Department of lIYAM and CO. is pre-eminently superior to any and every other establishment in the trade.

[PRICE SD. shall reside therein during such portion of the year as is not covered by the privilege therein provided; and for the better ascertaining the fact of such re sidence, every person claiming the benefit of this exemption shall verify the same upon oath (if re quired) before the Commissioners acting in the ex ecution of this Act, in the district where such parsons shall reside." Mr. T. BARING—AII the rest of the time he must reside in Ireland ?—Yes. Colonel RomlLLT—Does that proof of non-residence rest upon the oath of the party ; is that the only means of proving the fact of non-residence ?—Unless he claimed the exemption on oath, if required, be would be chargeable. You would have no means of proving the fact of non• residence against him under the terms of the Act, at least it would be a very difficult thing ?--It would be very difficult, generally, to ascertain when he ar rived in England and when he left. Mr. J. WILSON—Does not the exemption apply to residence in England not rendering absolutely neces sary residence in Ireland during the whole of the rest of the period ; suppose a man had been in France, or abroad, during the rest of the period ?—Then he would be chargeable. " Provided also, that no per son shall, for the purposes of claiming this exemption, be deemed to be ordinarily resident in Ireland, unless he shall reside therein during such portion of the year as is not covered by the privilege herein provided.' Mr. RICABDO—In case of a prosecution being in stituted for a false return, under schedule (D), would it be under your control ; would you have the management of it ?—Yes, if it were a prosecution for a penalty. There have been certain prosecutions; I believe you gave a return of them?—lt appears that in 1846 there were two; in 1850, there were six ; and in 1851, three. Did you, under those prosecutions, require the production of the books of the parties prosecuted ? —No, I believe that these were cases in which we had the means of proving that the party had not re turned the full amount of the salary to which he was entitled, but not the profits of a trade. Have there been any prosecutions in respect to profits arising from trade ?—I do not remember the particulars of these cases ; they are a long time ago ; two in 1846. You do not remember having conducted any pro secution against a tradesman or a merchant for a false return of his profits ?—No, I do not believe that I have. I think it has been stated that the greater number of the returns under schedule (D) are not correct re turns ?—I have no means of judging of that; they do not come before me. . — Have you ever known an instance in which the books of a tradesman or merchant have been ex amined ?—No doubt there are cases in which they are examined before the local Commissioners, but the books are never required to be examined in any pro secution which is conducted by me. Then you, as prosecuting, have never had occasion to examine the books of a tradesman, under schedule (D) ?—No, I have no power to do so. The local Commissioners have the power to do that? —They have. Have the local Commissioners any machinery to enable them to do it ?—Yes, they have ?—lf the party refuses to produce his book, they may confirm the surcharge. Have they power to employ an accountant ?—No special leave is given them by law to do that. And no funds are provided for the payment of an accountant if they did employ him ?—No. Is it not the fact that in many cases the local Com missioners are not competent to examine the books of a merchant or tradesman, to ascertain whether he has made a false return of his profits P—l am not pre pared to say that, because in those places where mer chants are liable to be assessed, mercantile men may also be Commissioners. _ _ Do you think that in every case the local Commis sioners are competent to examine the books ?—I can not say that. I think these questions would be much better answered by the surveyors, wbo are in con stant communication with the Commissioners. I have never gone before any board of Commissioners. They do not report to you in any way, then ?—N o. JOHN FULLER, ESQ., EXAMINED. CHAIRMAN —Are you one of the Special Commis sioners under the property and income-tax for the ex amination of claims for the return of duty ?—I am one of the Special Commissioners ; it is not particularly for that service. There are only three Special Commissioners, I be ieve ?—Yes. Will you state to the Committee what your duties are generally ?—ln the first place they are to assess those persons under Schedule (D) who prefer being assessed by the Special Commissioners, and who pre fer sending in their incomes to the Special Commis sioners rather than to the Commissioners for General Purposes; however, that is a part of the business to which I have not much attended. My attention has been chiefly directed to the exemption clauses. You have charge of all exemptions under that Act ; it is your business to receive every claim for exemp tion, and to attend to it ?—Yes; or rather every claim for repayment. For exemption by way of repayment ?—Yes. By whom are such claims for repayment forwarded to you ?—ln cases of persons whose incomes are under 1501. a year, who claim on that ground the claims come to us through the hands of the surveyors. Do they not invariably come to you through the hands of the surveyors ?—That class of claims in variably comes to us through the hands of the sur veyors ; other claims, the claims for charitable insti tutions, and fer the repayments on commuted tithe, are sent to us from the parties themselves. What course do you pursue in practice with the examination of those claims that come through the surveyors ?—ln the first place they are indexed ; there is an index kept of them all; then they are referred to certain clerks in particular departments, according to the nature of these claims, to be examined to see whether they are correct or not with the vouchers and other things which we require, and then they are passed. The chief ,clerk in each department, after the claim has been examined by the under-clerks, puts his signature upon it as a sort of voucher. The orders or warrants are made out upon those claims, which warrants are signed by me in the first instance, and then are signed pro ,forma by the Board of Com missioners of Inland Revenue. You have said that all these claims are under your charge; do those claims undergo your personal ex amination, each of them ?—Not all of them ; it would be utterly impossible; there are as many as 300 or 400 sometimes in the course of a day. Then to whom do you delegate the power : you have stated to the Committee that it is your duty to sign the warrant to repay the money ; to whom do you delegate the power to judge of the propriety or justice of the claim?--The claims are divided into what we call technically certificate claims and stock c l a i ms , an d they are referred accordingly to two dif ferent officers. There is a head clerk in each of those 'offices, who is a man of experience, and a person who is considered a trustworthy man, who passes those claims, provided he finds them to be all regular in the ordinary course of proceeding. If the clerk finds a difficulty in any claim, or has any suspicion that it is not a correct one, be refers it to the chief clerk in the office, and if he finds a difficulty again, he refers it to me. Then it only comes to you in the third instance ? In the third instance. Will you define what are the class of claims that come within each of those departments ?—The claims in the one department are claims for the repayment of duty which has been charged on dividends at the Bank, South Sea House, India House, and National Debt-office. Do large insurance companies come under that class ; such as the Amicable and others where deduc tions are made? No; because we should have no means of check there. We have the books of the Bank, South Sea House, and India House, whereby the clerk can check every item ; but we have no books of the insurance companies, and therefore they would come under the class of certificates. What come under the second division ? Those are what are technically called certificate claims ; th ose are claims for the repayment of duty on other pro perty, which it is necessary to support by certificates. Does that include all other claims except a nd India those de ductions that have been mad e a t the Ban House ?—Yes ; all oth er c l a i ms un der that c lause of the act for allowance of duty to persons whose income is under 1501. Then all claims for exemptions for incomes under 1501. are considered in these two departments which you have now stated ?—Yes. Can you state to the Committee the n , ,umber of claims that have been m ade in any one year I have the number of claims for the year ending April 1849, which is the first year of the last series now termina ting; the number of claims received was 69,833. Can you state the amount of money claimed to be re t u rned ?—The amount repaid was 73,818/. 18 s. 4 d . You do not recollect the amount claimed ?—No ; we should have no means of ascertai n i ng t h at; no notioe in all probability would be taken of the amount of those claims which were rejected. .avo you lqcught a certain numb er o f the books in order to share the CcrnmitV in which these records of have brought some of the book.) Mr. HENLEY—What portion of time do the cone tents of that book run over ?—I think in the year 1840 they amounted to about 289 volumes. The contents of that volume do not appear, upon looking at the papers within it, to answer to the look of the outside at all P—Because a great number of the papers are short. What period does that particular volume run over; at what date does it commence, and at what date doe* it close ?—Probably they would not be put according to date. CHAIRMAN—How are the claims arranged ; are they according to classes, or the dates at which they arrive ; how do you make up any year P—They are arranged according to certain numbers in our indictee. Are those numbers regulated by the particu.'ar number of the claim, or by the date at which it comet: , in P—By the date at which it comes in, I should say. Are those dates consecutive ; if so, how many are there in that volume ?—They may be arranged in this volume according to the dates at which they came in, but there may be very many which came in at inter mediate dates which are not put into this volume, be cause they are not put here until after they have been thoroughly examined and done with. CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER—I understood you to say that in the year to which you have re ferred there were 69,000 claims, the papers relative to which occupied 289 volumes ?—Yes. CHAIRMAN—Of the size of that folio volume ?-0f that size. That is the only way in which you can come at it, I believe. Are all these claims for return of duty only, for repayment ?—Yes. Do those 289 volumes contain any part of the claims for discharges under Schedule (A), (B), or (D), which are made to the surveyors ?—I do not know whether they do include them or not, but I rather think that they do. You are aware that claims are made for discharge from the assessment prior to the net assessment being made by the surveyor. My question applies to whether those volumes contain any of the claims which have been made to the surveyors, and by the surveyors discharged ?—No, not at all ; we have nothing to do with that. It does not at all go through our office. That is done entirely by the Commis• sioners for General Purposes. Then. the folio volumes, one of whi c h you have produced now, and the 63,000 claims, cannot give the Committee any idea of the total number of claims made for exemption to the surveyors P—No. Can you form any correct opinion of the conve rse Live proportion which the claims for return of duty bear to the claims for the general discharges to which I have alluded P—No, I have no means, because those that are discharged in the country do not in any way come before my notice. Is there no return of the discharges made in the country laid before the Board ?—That I cannot tell you. Do the parties claiming the return of duty make their claims every year ?—Not regularly. Some of them make their claims more often than once a year. Others let them go for three or four years sometimes. Our rule is not, except under special circumstances, to allow any claim after three years. Do you send a return to the bank of the account* from which the tax is not to be deducted ?—Yes. That goes from your office ?—Yes. What is the nature of the communication which you make to the Bank and to the India House ? They send us copies of their books ' • at every divi dend we have a copy of the Bank books and the South Sea books, and the India House books sent to us ; our clerks look over them and see what of those items are entitled to exemption. They make a list of such items and send it to the Bank and elsewhere. Do you mean that they compare the claims sent in to you with their books ?—Yes ; whenever a claim is sent in to the examination room for dividends or for stock, it is marked off opposite to the name of the man in the book ; therefore, when the lists are to be. made out, the clerk has nothing to do but to turn over the leaves, and all those names against which he sees " exempt" written he copies into the list and sends it to the bank, who simply copy it I suppose in their list. Do you send that once a year or once a quarter, or how do you do ?—Previously to every dividend. The same to the India House as to the Bank ?—Yes: Wherever the deductions are mad. ?—Wherever the deductions are made. Can you state what length of time is requisite, or what establishment you have for doing that duty ?—• The establishment varies from time to time ; the claims do not come in very regularly; some months they are much more than others ; but I should say we cannot do the business with less than 25 clerks, and sometimes more. I believe at this time we have 29 clerks employed. Have you any statement of the expense of your particular department ?—I have nothing to do with the regulation of the expense of the department ; that is entirely managed by the Board, but I believe I can tell you. I know the number of persons em• ployed, and the amount is given to me for the present number of clerks as 4,479/. For 29 clerks 7—Yes. Are these all the parties who are employed in the course of the year by you respecting those exemp tions ?—Yes ; the surveyors give us great assistance. In your office P—ln our office. Is there not a distinction in cases of exemption from tax on account of charities and hospitals; what course do you observe with regard to them 2-- Those claims are generally sent to us by the parties themselves ; perhaps by the secretary, or the clerk or treasurer, or whoever it may happen to be of the charity, and they are sworn ;to; they are then re ferred to me in the first instance, and it is for me to decide whether I consider them to be charitable Wee within the meaning of the Act. That part cf the business you do yourself?—l do; that is so specified in the Act. What number of those cases are there in the course of the year ?-3,334 is the number given to me. Do those form part of the 69,000, or are they sepa rate 2—Quite distinct from the 69,000. In relation to the returns which are sent to the Bank, are we to understand that the answer which you have given as to the lists applies to the Bank, the East India House, and other companies, by whom the deductions are made ?—Yes. A quarterly account P—Previously to each divie dend. Then I should observe that we do not make out an entirely new account, because these accounts which have been previously exempt remain exempt, so that our account only extends to such as are ad ditional exemptions, new exemptions, during that quarter. Can you tell what is the average number of el emptions included in these lists in the year or quer» terly ?—The accounts exempt at the Bank in the year ending sth April, 1849 were 9,785. Have you any list as to the India Houle P—l have not. (To b© continued.) MILITARY OUTRAGE. Last evening, at the Waterloo Terminus of the South-Western Railway, a large number of peaceable travellers, including a considerable proportion of fe males, were subjected to alarm and violence by a b 0,17 of soldiers of the 4th (Queen's) Light Dragoons.
