SECOND REPORT OF THE COMMISSIONERS ON THE PUBLIC RI:VENUE. TO . THE LORDS COMMISSIONERS OF NIS MAJESTY'S TREASvity: . The Second Report of the Commissioners appointed by the Acts of,the Est and 24 : Ge0.,117-. c. 90, and 3d Geo. IV. c. 37, for inquiring into the- Collection and Management of the Public Revenue arising in- Ireland, and into certain Depart. ments of the Public Revenue arising in Great Britain. C'onx:racilfront Tins S t.ti of.yeaterdery.) It seems almost superfluous, after what we have stated re specting the system of Management of the departments in Ire land, to recommend that tne resident General COmthissioners in that country should invariably be selected from among those Members of the boards in London who may be presumed to 'have acquired by experience a competent knowledge of the English system ; and that until the new regulations are fully established, one or more practical officers, selected Irons the English branch of the establishment, should occupy the chief. : places of controal immediately u nde r t h em . Wh en the combined system shall have 'beets matured by expe rience, this provision will be, -114-40figer necessary, fur the distinction between British , atta -Irish - officers • will then have ceased to_ exist; they will :all be members of" the same establishment, distributed and promoted iadiScriminately, according to merit and capacity, -throughout the United Xing dom. But _ although we advert ..to this as.. a great, benefit ulti matOly •to be ,obtained, we are fully aware or' the slow de grees by, which the intermixture sof the establishMents must be effected., and the extreme precaution with which it must be regulated. • 'A's tha adoption of this measure would'atlinit of dispensing with the services of a considerable number of the Commis. sioners nosy holding places at the several boards of each revenue, it is necessary that we should obiriate the possible supposition that we contemplate the retirement of all those Commissioners from the Scotch and, Irish boards alone. , ••Sticlian arrangement has not entered into our views. The present condition of the Irish revenue departments has been traced to causes ibr which the existing Irish. boards . can hardly beheld responsible ; and so far as we may, be warranted by what has come before us . ; in expressing an opinion of the Irish Commissioners in general, we should feel boUnd to bear such favourable testimony to their sufficiency, as weuld.,be consistent with their, occupying fairly proportionate share 'in the united commissions. The members' of the Scottish boards would have an indisputable claim to be considered with the same impartiality in the new arrangements. . . . . But although it has been necessary for us to say thus much, in order to prevent s misunderstanding of our intention, we are conscious that it is not within our province to say more on this topic, nor to offer any observations upon the peculiar import ance of filling the general boards, at the commencement of their: institution, with gentlemen of approved ability and ex. perience in the,revenue business. _ . It is incumbent upon us also to advert, in this place, to the expediency. of 'establishing a sufficient safeguard azainst the disposition which might be expected to exist in boards having their residence in London, to encourage the employment tir natives of England, in preference, to those of Scotland or Ire- - land, in the service of the revenue. This is a point to which we attach great importance, and we are anxious' to state that any such partiality would be directly opposite to the views and feelings with which our recommendation of these measures is . accompanied. Li order most effectitally to obsiate such a tend ency,. we are of ,opinion that the nomination to all the lower situations, whether' in the Customs or the Excise (thi highest executive officers being under the new regulations to be tilled by promotion alone); should be so far subject to the controul of the Government as •to give ample power to your Lordship s t o e provide for the employment 'of natives of Great Britain and of Ireland, in duo proportions. There is, however, a part of .the present duty of Irish boards Which the redueed'number of - Commissioners might not suffice fur the performance of; and the due discharge vi which must therefore he provided for in another. tminner. td their furictims as Courts of Judicature. In England the Cam Missioners of Excise constitute a Court of Justice for the. decision of causes relating . to tluterevenue. Theit judicial Functions are chiefly exercised upon prosecutions which arisein London: • Those which occur in the country are usually carried before Magistrates. But all cases which are of superior importance, or haVe any special difficulty attending them, ate conducted in the Court of Exchequer. - . • The Commissioners of Customs in England have no such powers. All legal proceedings for breaches of the Jaw relating to that revenue are either summarily decided upon by the ma gistracy, or prosecuted in the Court of Exchequer. In Scotland, the judicial functions are exercised by either commission, except in the case of certain offences against the Salt 'Laws, which the Commissioners of Excise at Edinburgh were by a recent Act empowered to take cognizance of. The duty of attending to them has been trifling. 'ln all other legal proceedings, the Boards in Scotlenel have recourse to the Ma gistracy, or the Court of Exchequer, according to the import ance or difficulty of the case. - • In Ireland, the Boards both of Customs and Excise sit jitdi cially to hear revenue causes. arising in the Dublin district; end there are Coutts of Sub-Coriniussioners, composed of the principal officers in each revenue, to try such as arise in the country. From the sentences, either of the Chief or Sub- Commissioners, a power of appeal is given to Commissioners appointed for that purpose in Lublin, in the same manner as from the English Board of Excise to the Commissioners ofAp. peal in London. The •powers of these Commissioners of Ap peal are of the same description, and their duties nearly equally light, in both countries. They consist of five Commissioners in each. But while the salaries of the English Commissioners are only 2001. per annum, subject to deductions, those of Ire land'have 8001: ti-yetir each; thus furnishing another instance Of the disproportionate expensiveness of the IriSh establish. ments, as compared with the English. Of these revenue tribunals its Ireland, the Courts of Sub-Corn missioners appear to be peculiarly objectionable in the principle of their constitution. The prosecutors, in itlicaii:ies that come bcf t iie them, are Revenue Officers, and Revenue Officers are the judges. It is true, that provision is made to. pr e i e nt th ose w h o s i t as judges from being interested in the , specific causes which co m e before them ; but theyare conne c t ed by habits of intimacy, and by - a similarity of general•inferesti, with the officers who are the parties in those causes ; and they must always feel, that the questions upon which they give judgment in favour of a brother officer on one day, are of the same nature as those upon which the same officer may, on. the next, be appointed to pronounce sentence between themselves and some other defendant. We are told, however, th a t thi s anoma l ous tr ib una l has not been found practically to produce the degree of injustice which might theoretically be expeCted from it. This is to be pre sumed, it is said, from the circumstance of its not having been much complained of. _, We attach little weight to a conc l us i on upon that ground. We were in like manner referred to the ge- ; of,theiream:utz:bie: neral absence of complaint on the part of the merchants for a proof that the officers of the customs were not negligent or ir regular in the discharge of their duties. The. examination, however, of the 'merchants themselves convinced us, that if such complaints were neither loud nor frequent, it was not because there existed no ground for them, but because in Ireland com plaints against public officers generally have hithexto• been es . teemed not merely hOpeless but dangerous, as being mote like ly to produce persecution from the inferior officers, than redress froth their superiors. ~ .. The diffitulty which opposes itself to an alteration in these Courts of Shb-Conmissroners, , with a view of placing the ad ministration of the revenue laws in Ireland upon the same foot ing as in England with respett to the country ilisteictS,' is the. want of a magistracy in ell respects similar. - It has been Stig gested that an improvement might be made by the inteivention of the . assistant-barristers, in lieu or in. aid of those Courts. But a§ there is 'a bill now helbre the legislature for introthicing some improvements in the polite and MagistratY of - Ireland, it will he more- advisable to. defer, the nOnni4nration .of. any measure fonthat purpose, until these loxislative improvements shall haie been etfbcted, when it may tie' "seen in what Matinee the disposal Of she revenue causes out of Dublin may beliest ' adapted to, them. . . . .. . It is to be observed also,: then the mode of trying Twi t:T i tle causes In the country would not of necessity be affected by' the alteration the local boards.. The reduction would only render a new arrangement of the Dublin jurisdiction . indispensable. ' . . • ' We have had under out edrisideration two plans, . to relieve the chief Ccrounission'ers ,from ~(Itis-part of their pre sent duty. One of the m is a .proposnl auhmitted 0 the Lord • Lieutenant, 'wld - chi had &rift object to mike the . GorpriiiitiopCrz . cf Appiartbe:JUdges in the 'fired ingfaiicee 'acid • to citable tho parties to appeal from that tribunal_to the Court of Exchequer,. with some abridgement of the forms and expenses belonging to the proceedings of that Court. The other is a suggestion from Leslie Foster, a person'tchos.e opinion, on all accounts, is entitled to the greatest ;weight, and .one of the Board's counsel. His opinion is, that theCauSeB now tried bythe.CouKt of . Com mission:TS might be carried at once into the Court of chequer, under regulations which would effectually gtiird the subject against any increiiie of delay or expense. Thishasitp neared to us to be.by much the more eligible course. It would. not only be a relief to the revenue boards, iu 'their judicial : functions, butiYould lead to the entire abolition of the taxis 'mission of appeal .in Ireland, the expense of which is about 5,0001. a year. Mr. Leslie Foster's proposal will be found in his evidence. given before us annexed to this report.. The other, suggestion to which *-e have adverted is also inserted -in oar appendix, to , gether with the opinions of the Irish law officers upon it. We thi not think it necessary that We should eltate in ;More detail our opinions upon the respective merits ; ihese. plans. because a e conceive,.that previously. to the adoption of either of them, or of any other arrangement for the same purpose, the subject should' be folly examined and considered by the new general Boards of Customs and Excise, assisted by. the British and Irish law officers of the Crown. In the offices immediately under the Boards, and connected with the 'exercise of their functions, some changett will be re viral; and souse reductions will be found practicable, in con sequence of the alteration of the Boards themselves. The of= fices of the secretaries. in both departments are of thitt 'descrip tion t and those which appertain to the geheial receipt and col . - lection of the.revenuesin Dublin and in Edinburgh, will be susceptible of a more economical modification, whenever it may be determined to carry into execution the change which we pro pose. It will he our duty to suggestthe regulations and re ductions by which_these ,parts of the establishment-A may be best adapted to it, after completing - our inquiry into each of them, and after conferring with the persons appointed to pm side over them. Of the practical difficulties which the new boards will have to encounter-in the full introduction of • the English Syetem of collection into Ireland, the most considerable will be found in the Excise 'department. in the Customs, the differences now existing between the English anel Irish practice, are rather those. of habit and discipline than of principle or regulation.-- But in the Excise there are wider distinctione. • These chiefly consist in the combined method of license and survey (before adverted to) which`prevails in Ireland, and not - in England, anti in the mixed system of; port and inland duties of excise which obtains in England, and not in Ireland. For the former we cannot hesitate to recommend the ultimate though gradual and cautious substitution of the English system - of survey alone. We concur with Colonel Doyle and Mr. Carr in thinking that it would not be safe to relinquish immediately the means which the license system affords for securing a part of the revenue in Ireland. But we are strongly of opinion, that as soon as the system of survey is well established, the charge by way of license should be abandoned ; as we apprehend that the system of license must either be of no assistance to a system 'of survey, or it must have a tendency to relax it. If the license is imposed at a rate of duty much below what could be yielded on the average by the actual quantity of the ar ticle produced, it must leave the whole business of ascertaining the real duty to the vigilance of the officer, and under goeid ma nagement the duty paid would in that case always exceed the license charge. If, on the other hand, the charge by way of li cense were imposed, so as to approach very nearly to the amount of the duty on the actual produce, it would gradually induce the officer to take the easier course or relying upon it, and of sparing his own exertions. But in that case, while it would still produce no advantage to the revenue, it coald not fail to operate very injuriously upon the manUfacturers in general, by its unavoidable tendency to confine the trade to the greater capitalists. • 1 .No manufacturers could exist under a system of license cal culated upon the utmost quantity of any article that could be prodticed by constant work, except Well as could afford to keep, their . manufactories always in activity, and to abide the fluctu. !tiers of the market, with large stacks frequently on - their hands, The enterprise of the smaller capitalist would he . :crushed -by in This -is one of the pernicious effect's of revenue re gulation, which ought most sedulously to be guarded againit. That such an effect has been-produced in a considerable de gree in Ireland by the license system, even at the rates of charge, and with - the evasions which have prevailed there, is ap parent from the. report of the Board of Excise, in which a very great diminution in the number of all traders subject to the Excise, since the adoption of that system is described with ex pressions of satisfaction perfectly consistent in persons who have only the easy collection of the revenue at heart ; but in which, we presume, neither your Lordships nor Parliament, who take a more extended view of the general interests of the community, could possibly particip a te. . With respect to the difference which exists in the collection of the port duties, we can only offer our decided opinion that it otteht not to continue; and that the Customs and Excise ehould be employed in the collection of their several revenues with the game limits as to their respective operations in Ireland asin Great Britain. Whether it may be more convenient. to adopt the division established in Ireland between these two de partments, where the Customs alone are employed upon the coast and in the ports, while the Excise have no concern but with the collection of inland duties, or to extend to Ireland the English practice of taking a part of -the importation duties by the Customs; and a part by the Excise, it is not within' our province to consider. The Commission which is appointed un der the sign manual to inquire into the Customs and Excise of England will, doubtless, submit to your Lordships their opi nion upon that important point, as it concerns the futianna nagement in England; and the practice in Ireland Swill be go yerned by the ultimate decision taken upon it. In both branches of the revenue, however, the first proceed ing towards the union of the departments, and the establish ment of a better system and practice in Ireland, will be gra dually to introduce a certain proportion of officers of skill and character from the. British service into the most important places of check and superintendence in that country, while - persons of the same description may be brought from thence - to acquire by experience a knowledge of the English practice. The complete identification of the establishments, by inter changing the lower anti more executive members, so as finally to abolish all national distinctions among the officers of the same revenue, would ensue, by such slow gradations, and with such precautions as the judgment and experience of the Boards must naturally suggest. We are well aware that when thee° first and general arrange. silents shall have been completed, there will still remain much to be done, in the judicious adoption of the subordinate parts, before the new system will be in full operation, and productive of 'all the advantages which it must ultimately . yield. Many of the difficulties to be encount e r e d are su ff ic iently obvious, and others will no doubt arise in the gradual introduction of .so extensive a change, which cannot now be anticipated. But we neither foresee nor can we imagine any obstacles to the suc cessful accomplishment of this great measure, of a magnitude sufficient to suggest to its the least apprehension, or induce in us a belief that they would not be easily overcome by the in dustry, the zeal, and the judgment of the general and local Commissioners, under the superintending directions of your Lordships. On the ()thee hand, we must repeat our confident assurance, that neither skill nor industry, however indefati. gably and zealously applied, can; by a mere partial aniend ment of the existing management of the revenue in Ireland, in its present state of separation from that of England, render it an efficient and economical member of the general system. j Of the effeet which meet be produced by these Change; Upon individual interests and feelings, we are certainly by no means inseneible, and nothing short of a clear conviction of the great benefit to be derived from them would have induced us to recommend a public measure, which may be the inevi table cause of much private disappointment and inconvenience. In the compeneatinn to be allowed for deprivation of office, or for the retirement of any individual in consecteience of these general alterations, there will be ground for liberal regard to the claims of the parties, in the consideration that such al lowances will not be additions to the existing public burdens., bur only temporary diminutions of t h e large amount- of even tual saving, which we sang u in e ly contemplate as the result: of this measure. • , We hast. thus submitted the grounds -upon which we lu,ve been led to consider the incorporation of the several Boards of revenue throughout the.llnited Kingdom, as an indispensable preliminary to the attainment of that uniforthity in the manage ment and collection of ti eipublic income which was contemplated by .

By the advices received this day it appears that this move me nt was not the work of volitior, but of necessity, on the part of the barbarians. The Grecian fleet, animated with that noble spirit of enterprise which has uniformly characterised them, forced their enemy to leave the waters of Scio, and pursued them to 'Penedos, hating cut off ' ,one brig and tw o b om b s , w hi c h t h ey captured. Cruelty and vice are generally attended by the most abject cosiardiee, and this 'powerful fleet, which could destroy fifty thousand defenceless Christians, and reduce beautiful Scio to a desert, did rot find itself safe even at Tenedos from the Christie.n. Grecian fleet, but sought for safety under the cannons of the Castles of the Dardanelles. The pewer of Turkey is next to be directed _against acedonia,A and a numerove' army of barbarians is to invade this country of illustrions me rtiory. Civilization, however, has little to fear from 'this effort Macedonia cannot provide an•invading army with .subsistence, and the Turks are not provided with any of the means of wsr necessary for the subjection of a hostile and warlike populatioe.

Great efforts have been made to throw provisions into the fort ress of Patras, but the blockade of the Greeks has beep we vigt.. lant to admit of any relief to the besieged: .
