If Lord JOHN RUSSELL chose to cast his shield 'Over the discomfited financier, he must naturally expect that he himself will receive some of the many shafts' aimed' at his protege, one of which may at last ,Irive kW 'a eilecr. Thus, o n th e ques ti on o f the renewal of the income-tax, he. not only spoke but voted in favour ctf the " conclusion" at which his incompetent coadjutor bad arrived. Although he witnessed the storm, of indignation which the " PRECIOUS BUDGET" excited in the country, and knew, or ought to have known,' that it was occasioned by the renewal of the income-tax without change 'or modification, and the re-enactment of Schedule D with all its atrocious inequalities, he made no effort at conciliation, he offered nothing that . could be putforward as a compro mise or an instalment of justice. The natural result was the defeat, which he sustained on Friday evening, when the amendment of the Honourable Gentleman the Member for Montrose *as carried by a majority of 14—a majority which would ,have been quadrupled but for the'shameless defection of some of the Liberal Members'(!): - Last night the _Ministers were again left in a mi nority, and through a similar perversity. The case of the Irish and Scotch distillers has frequently been brought under the notice of the Legislature and of the community in general. It has been shown that they , are greatly injured by the mode in which the duty is assessed, it being levied on the quantity originally measured in the spirit receivers, or as it is technically term " the worms-end." If the spirit be retained for some time in bond there must necessarily be a considerable diminution in quantity, arising from leakage, soakage, evaporation, and other causes un necessary to mention ; the strength is also reduced, so that a double loss is sustained by the distillers. The improvement of quality would, however, compensate for these losses, if the duty sere only charged on the quantity actually brought into consumption, and the result would be, that a much more wholesome, or, perhaps, we should say, a less deleterious article would come into general use. The distillers, howeVer, naturally object to pay duty on that which has been totally wasted, that they should not only lose the cost of production, but also a heavy charge peritgallon on that which can never be made evailabte, and this 'objection is enhanced by the fact that their foreign competitors are subjected to no such disadvantage. No matter how long rum or brandy, or any other foreign spirit may be kept in the QUEEN'S stores, the importer will only have to pay duty on the quantity contained in the vessels when removed from bond, and will re ceive payment for every drop on which he is charged to the revenue. Now the Scotch and Irish distillers require no protection or other advan tage, but merely to be placed on a similar footing with their rivals. All they seek is fair play —a clear stage and no favour. The 4d. differential or countervailing duty is not more than 'sufficient compensation for the restrictions imposed on the home producers by other Excise regulations; and we venture to assert-that, if as free to carry on 'their operations as the West Indian manufacturer, 'they 'would gladly 'relinquish that difference. There is, however, a twofold reason why Sir CHARLES WOOD resists this reasonable demand. First, it is a matter of justice and equity that the re quired concession should be made, and that is an argument to which he will never yield so long as he regulates the national finances. Secondly,' the House of Commons on two several occasions affirmed the propriety and expediency of removing the "pro tection " to the- foreigner, and the Bill that had been introduced - was only rej ec t e d b y a s l en d er ma j ority ' of '"one" on the question that the SPEAKER do leave the Chair. The mortification occasioned by the actual and virtual d e f eats sunk deep into the heart of the Riglss Ron. Baronet, and incre ase d hi s f ormer determin at io n. that the and although decision,, N o o f alternative then remained but . taken; the House should be ag,ttl than 318 there were no less Menlistrvaopresent, the numbers were equal, there being es on each side. The resolution was therefore c ar _, t flea by the casting voice of the SPEAKER. ut • DAIIOI 7 ...W.gATUEU TA.BI 4 E. • State of the Wind and 'Weather at each of the following -Placa! at Nine 'btrock y e sterday • • . arranged fn order of latitude. • vMo . ..

MONEY and COMMERCIAL NEWS. CITY, TWO O'CLOCK. The sales of cotton at Liverpool yesterday were estimated at, from 3,000 to 3,500 bales, of which 500 were taken for ex done port, and 600 on s p ecu l a ti on . Th e market was quiet at re -- vious rates.—Railway Sh ares were aga i n d epressed. In a report by Messrs. William Short and Co.. upon the Iron trade, it is stated " Rails have been in limited demand during last month, and the price is considerably easier. For Welsh bars there has been very limited inquiry; first-class makes have been offered at 41. 12s. 6d., per ton in Wales, and second-class at 4/. 10s. Welsh Pig Iron and Refined Metal are Tery diffi cult of sale. In Scotch Pig Iron there has also been a limited business, but owing to the favourable effect of large shipments from Glasgow and neighbourhood, the price has not declined below 40s. 6d. per ton for mixed num bers, ordinary brands, cash against immediate shipment. Swedish Iron is firm, with a small amount of business. The accounts from France, Germany, and other places ad-1 vise a moderate business in staples and manufactures, but certainly not so much activity as could be desired. The Baltic ports suffer from the low price of grain and the corn petition of the French growers. The authorities at Washington have directed that the duties on produce from Canada sent in bond to New York for exportation, shall in future be collected at the frontier port on their entering the States, to be refunded afterwards less 2 1 / 2 per cent. on production of a certificate that the pro duce has actually been exported. The rule to be thus en forced is the same with that which now exists with respect to the importation of goods in bond from Europe, through the United States for Canada. Lord Wharncliffe, as President of th e C omm itt ee f or Pro moting Tribunals Of Commerce, and Mr. Montague sore, Mr. Richard Thornton, Mr. Arthur Anderson, M.P. for Orkney, and others as members, have requested the mer chants generally of the City to meet them to-morrow at the London Tavern, and hear explanations as to the objects in view. CHANCERY.-(THIS DAY IN RE DYCE SOMBRE. His Lordship, assisted by Sir G. K. Bruce, was engaged the whole day in hearing this petition in lunacy. The name of Mr. Dyce Sombre, the subject of the petition, formerly the Member for Sudbury, has been frequently before the public in connexion with former petitions. The affidavits and arguments were at great length,and promised to extend over a much longer time than the present day. ROLLS' COURT.--(THIS DAY.) this v. XARDES. The arguments i n this part-heardcase, which have already occupied the Court two days, were again resumed this morning. VICE-CHANCERY. -(THIS DAY.) (Before Vice-Chancellor TURNER.) His Honour was occupied to-day with small causes, none of which were of importance. QUEEN'S BENCH.-(THIS DAY.) (Sittings in Banco ) THE QUEEN V. LONDON AND NORTH-WESTERN RAILWAY. Lord Cutrnisra. gave judgment in this case, which was a rule for a peremptory mandamus requiring the London and North-Western Railway Company to make their Burton branch. The answer of the company to the rule was that their compulsory powers for taking land had expired, and they had, therefore, no authority to make the required branch. The Court was of opinion that the company was entitled to their judgment, and the rule was accordingly dismissed. THE QUEEN v. NORFOLK RAILWAY COMPANY. Mr. CROWDER, Q.C., appeared in support of this manda mus, but as the circumstances of the case were precisely similar to those disclosed in the judgment which the Court had just pronounced, he did not think it advisable to trouble the Court with any arguments.— Rule discharged. There was a slight decline yesterday afternoon in the rates for Bills of Exchange on Paris, Antwerp, Amsterdam, and Trieste, but on Pat is the quotations were firm. There is an impression that the demand for silver has been to a great extent satisfied, but we hear that at the lower rates there is still a good inquiry. Gold at Paris bears a higher relative value t o s il ver th an i t did . 6" M The amount of bills drawn by the Fast India Company during the last fortnight has been very small, viz., 8,7961. 15s. 6d. on the three Presidencies, the terms being 2s. Id. on Bengal and Madras and 2s. I%cl. on Bombay. This is rather in favour of the assumption that the balance of trade between England and India is becoming more in our favour, or that, at least, the demand for specie in the East is less urgent. The English Stock Market has been very steady, and the renewed defeat of the Ministry appears to have had no im pression on the market. The business doing neverthe less, much more limited than yesterday. Consols have been quoted 96% to 97 for Money and Account. The New Three-and-a-Quarter per Cents. have realized 97% %, and the Three per Cents. 96 to 4. Bank Stock has been dull at 210, and India Stock at 260. Exchequer -bills are 495. to 525. premium , The Foreign Stock Market has been exceedingly quiet and prices are in several instances almost nominal.

(Sittings in Banco before Mr. Justice COLERIDGE. IN RE AN ATET. Mr. PRENTIC E applied for a ru IO le, c alling upon an attorney of the tour to show cause why his name should not be struck off the rolls. The Learned Gentleman made the motion nnder the following circumstances. In 1846, three young men, named Salmon, became entitled to a freehold estate at Little Bonfield, under the will of their uncle, and by the ad.. vice of the attorney in question, who, it was alleged acted in collusion with one of the trustees, the property was put up for sale, and sold to himself and the trustee for 2,000/. less than its real value. Eventually, however, the young men were induced to file a bill in Chancery to set aside the sale on the ground of fraud, and in his answer to that bill the attorney not only committed perjury, but embodied documents or re• ceipts for money which subsequently turned out to be for geries. He was therefore indicted for perjury and found guilty, but a new trial had since been granted upon some technical objection that had been taken to the form of the indictment.—Application granted. k' L. , ""r1! •••••../f ,•, r ,it t . • 1 -!! • „ • ' •7 4. 7.• - • - 1, 114. 4 , ailb 4 D ; r• 31 e.; ;p= 0,71: . )•• t , 'T w~ ~~~~ Lon ° , ~. .... . -, WEDNESDAY, MAY 708, Dose ,tom Th l.l othiliklieouosef of Lords last evening, atuireeitsieen,ted upwards of 100 pet i t i o n s from different towns aggression. in Scotland against Papal i r rn e t ° i v r e l t - 1 The—Earl - of' Ittinovvicp m, ntngenftorofa n r a e v tu al in offi of ce t r h s e , suPPlementary estimate for theil boilk occasion to call the attention heir Lordships to the regulationsreo:l t t he.eom D 8 issued , 17 , the °Admiralty _ ru . ett'pl: t a h thd e jao e t u ut b rhneedd. 0., The leturn was ordered, end their L ' lir: -14Avvis stated, is refily to fir.

This was an action to recover the sum of 761. on an an nuity bond granted by the defendant, The defendant suffered judgment to go by default. The plaintiff's solicitor said the condition of the bond was that defendant should pay two separate annuities of 20s. per week each, payable weekly, or within one week after de mand, the penalty under the bond being 2,9001. Evidence was adduced proving that 38 payments were due; that a demand had been made at defendant's resi dence, but he was in France. The Learned SICONPAZY said that the defendant had, by Buffering judgment to go by default, admitted the Whole facts. The jury gave a verdict for 761., the bond not carrying interest. MIDDLESEX SESSIONS. (THIS DAY.) Richard Lockyer was charged with stealing a copper, of the value of 1/., the property of Mr. Bunham_ John Gavin, a painter, in the employ of the prosecutor, stated that his master was repairing some houses at Con naught-terrace, Chelsea, on the 19th of last month. Wit ness left the one he was employed at securely fastened. On his return he found the back door open, and missed the cop per in question. Margaret Turner, a marine-store dealer, said that she bought the copper by weight of the prisoner on the night in question. The prisoner, who had nothing to say in his defence, was found guilty, and sentenced to six calendar months, with hard labour, in the House of Correction. ARRIVAL OF RazA BROOKE.—The Peninsular and Oriental Company's steamer, Euzine, Captain Evans, arrived at Southampton yesterday, from Constantinople, Smyrna, Malta, end Gibraltar, from which places she brought ship letter bags. Among her passengers was Sir James Brooke, Raj 4. of Sarawak and Governor of Borneo. Sir James appeared in excellent health and spirits, and was ac companied by his nephew, Mr. Grant. He stopped an hour or two at Southampton, and then took his departure for Lon don. Amongst the cargo brought by the Euxine was specie in gold and silver, valued at tO,O 01., from Constantinople. The Euxine left Malta on the 25th, and Gibraltar on the 3 th. The Right Hon. More O'Ferrall, the Governor of Malta, was to leave Malta a day or two after the Euxine left, and intended to reach England rid Rome. MR. THOMAS DUNCOMBE AND HIS POPISH RE.' SOLUTION. —We unde•stand that Mr. Thomas Duncombe has already begun to repent the pledge he came under to the Irish Members, to bring forward the Popish resolution, which we gave on a former occasion. He is described to us as being just now in a very pitiable state of mind, in consequence of the conflict which is going on within, be tween what he had undertaken to do, and what he now feels would be the course which prudence would dictate. We shall be able in a day or two to give the Hon. Gentleman's final conclusion on the subject. But be that conclusion what it may, he will soon find that his recent Popish and most un natural associations will have put an extinguisher on his Parliamentary life. Coming events cast their shadows be fore. We already hear by anticipation the electors of Fins bury tellies him that he will never more be representative of theirs.—.z6/ve. l i4er. of 20s. on Mr. Police court yesterday Mr. Elliott inflicted a floe Inn, at Croydon, FURIOUS Ihtic!No.--At the Lambeth • Isaac Williamson, the landlord of the Crown D ie prisoners ,__ we ere and the proprietor of an on; 2 1 he himself rives for furious driving in the neighbOrh° the driver of one of and a fine of 10s. on Robert Ovei.. od of Kennington -gate; ibus which Balls' omnibuses, for a similar offence.

Th e crew had just time to push off one of the boats and throw a few clothes into it previous to leaving the ill-fated schooner. The crew were picked up by the brig James, of Bermuda, and were landed at Hastings on Monday. The Fife was engaged in the coal trade. THE LATE MELANCHOLY CASE OF SHOOTING IN CUNIBERLAND.—The Carlisle Patriot states that the Rev. Joseph Smith is in much better health, and that the Rev. Gentleman was admitted to bail on Tuesday. His sureties were W. P. Johnson, Esq., Walton House, and the Rev. C. Beau, vicar of Brampton. (Sittings in Banco.) TICS ATTORNEY-GENERAL V. BRADBURY AND EVANS. This was an information filed by the Attorney-General against Messrs. Bradbury and Evans, the printers. for knowingly and wilfully printing a certain newspaper, entitled A Household Karrative of Current Events, without being stamped according to the provisions of the 6 and 7 William IV., chap. 76. The parties had agreed to a special case, whereby if the Court should be of opinion that the publica tion ought to be stamped, judgment was to be given for the Crown, and if they were of a contrary opinion, a nolle pro. sequi was to be entered. The Attorney-General and Mr. Crompton conducted the case for the Crown, and Mr. Peacock and another Learned Gentleman appeared for the defendants. The ATTORNEY-GENERAL said this was a case of consider able importance with reference to the revenue derived by the Crown from the stamps on newspapers, but the question would be found to be contained in a very small com pass. It depended entirely on the construction to be placed on the 6th and 7th of William IV., c. 76, which imposed certain duties on publications or newspapers, set forth in the schedule attached to the Act. The schedule stated that any paper containing any public news, intelli gence, or occurrences, or any remarks or observations there on, printed in any part of the United Kingdom for sale, and published periodically, or in parts or numbers, at intervals not exceeding twenty-six days, should be deemed and taken to be a newspaper within the meaning of the Act, and be chargeable with duty. There could be no doubt that it was a publication containing public news, intelligence, and oc currences, to be dispersed and made public; but the question arose whether the interval between the publication of one number and another brought it within the operation of the Act ? The CHIEF BARON —What would you call the Annual Register? The ATTORNEY•GENERAL—I take the real question to be— /ghat is news? The CHIEF BARON —News becomes old after a certain length of time. The ATTOR NEY - GENERAL—That, of course, would resolve itself into a matter of fact. The CHIEF BARON—It is quite clear that Macaulay's "History of England" is not subject to stamp duty. The ATTORNEY-GENERAL—No coubt a line of distinction must be drawn somewhere. This publication was a most re spectable and excellent production, and the parties connected with it deserved the utmost consideration both as individuals and as valuable members of the literary world. But the more successful it was the greater probability there would be of other persons publishing works of the same description, and consequently a serious inroad would be made in the re venue unless they were subject to stamp duty, and it was necessary to protect the Crown from any such loss. The Learned Counsel referred to the various Acts which had been passed relative to the stamping ofnewspapers, and contended that as the Hotssehold Narrative of Current Events contained news or occurrences up to within a day or two of its publica tion, it was liable to be charged with stamp-duty, and treated in every respect as a newspaper. Mr. PEAcocx was heard on the other side, and argued that if the construction suggested by his Learned Friend were placed on the Act, the Annual Register and other works containing news or information up to the time of pub lication would come under the provisions of the Stamp Act. The COURT took time to consider their judgment. QUARTER TO TIMER ... 96i 97 ... 96k 97 Consols ••• Ditto Account, May 13 ... ON PRICES OF BRITISH FUNDS O'CLOC E K. Bank Stock 3 per Cent.

THE BELGIANS AND THE SCOTCH FISHERIES.— For several years back fishermen from the coast of Belgium have been in the practice of fishing off our coasts, within the three miles limit, and in many cases, especially in the west of Scotland, have entered our harbours, and taken every ad vantage afforded by the shore, the same as if they were British subjects. Those " privileges " thus seized upon by the Belgians excited not a little jealousy among the fishing community, and the more so that the produce of our fisheries is completely excluded from the territory of Belgium. The matter was brought under the notice of the Board of Trade, but a letter from the secretary to the Beard of Fisheries shows the conclusion that has been in the meantime arrived at. It states :—" That the Belgian vessels claim the privi lege of being allowed to fish from British harbours in right 1 of certain charters alleged to have been granted by King Charles 11., to fifty vessels of the town of Bruges, and that in consequence of the claim put forth under these charters having called for particular inquiry, and thereby delayed their Lordships' decision, the Belgians are to be allowed to fish, in the usual manner. for the season of 1851 only, b u t are thereafter to be restricted as foreigners, except in so far as any of the parties claiming under any of the alleged charters shall have succeeded in establishing the validity of the charters, and the rights conferred by them, in d ue course 1 of law in the courts of this country.".-Banyollire Jourtsal.
