I T is with th e a b ove appropriate characters—the English signification of which is " Peace and Plenty," that CAPT. PIDDING'S Chinese correspondent heads his last commu nication from Fo-kein. " Heaven," he adds, "approving, has rained down blessings on the Central Nation. In the same Season, Peace is proclaimed, and Plenty crowns the Land. Since the year 4448," (A. D. 1811,) "when the Earth was revivified by the broom -tailed Star," (comet,) vegetation has not been so luxuriant as now. The air, redo lent of perfume from the fragrant tea-blossoms, manifests its fine quality; whilst th e p l entiful picking shows how abundant is the precious leaf. Thus has nature conspired with the gods to make man happy," The new Season's crop of CAPT. PIDDING'S TEAS, just received, realises all that he anticipated from the above communication. Their quality is most assuredly the finest he has known. Their abundance—with a remission of duties in prospect—has determined him at once to reduce the price below what they have ever before been charged. CAPTAIN PIDDING'S MIXED BLACK TEA is ac cordingly REDUCED from Bs. 6d. the Catty Package to 6s. the Pound Package. His SMALL LEAF GUNPOW DER is REDUCED from Twelve Shillings the Catty Package to Bs. 6d. the Pound Package. The Sign a t ure of the Sole Importer' Captain JOHN PIDDIN G ," H on.

TOE REVENUE The abstract of the net produce of the revenue for the quarter and year ending Wednesday, appears in the London papers of yesterday, it shows an increase of £1,718,915 on the quarter. and of £714,983 on the year—an increase which will not, it is to he feared, balance the receipts and expendi ture for the financial year, which closes on the sth of April. There is still a decrease of revenue from ordinary sources, though it is far from being so great as that which so startled the public last quarter. The present decrease is only £307,220 in the whole, or about half the amount of deficit in the excise returns of last quarter; of that decrease £275,516 are in the customs, and may doubtless be attri buted to the suspension of business in the wine trade, con sequent on the bad faith of the Portuguese tariff; it is clearly not ascribable to diminished consumption► of necessa ries, because not only do the customs returns exhibit an in crease from the sugar duties of the quarter —a sure test of the comparative well-doing or rather the comparative absence of ill-doing amongst the working classes—but the excise shows merely a nominal deficiency on the quarter. No part of this quarter's customs is moreover derived from corn du ties as from a large proportion of last quarter's. The smallness of this decrease is then satisfactory " as times go," and may, it is to be hoped, be regarded as indicative of an approach to the closing of the misery, suffering, and privation which have been inflicted upon us ; though cer tainly our distress is still deplorable, and our prospects most gloomy. The - increase is exhibited under the head Miscellaneous, the Post-office, and the Property -tax. The quarter's mis cellaneous return is swelled out by the sum of £511,-106, the produce of silver received under the Treaty of Nankin—an extraordinary item, which being deducted from the actual increase reduces the amount of increase to be placed to the credit of the sources of revenue to £1,237,539. Without this fortunate addition from China the miscellaneous receipts would only have been £30,150. The total receipts from the income tax during three quarters amount to £2,456,288, of which £1,885,232 have been collected during the last. The amounts under this head set down to the credit of the two preceding quarters were we presume derived chiefly from funded property, while that of the present quarter is princi pally gathered from income of all other descriptions. The sum collected during the last quarter has not been got in under pressure of any sort, for we never knew of any tax being collected with less annoyance or worry than the income tax. Nearly two millions have then been paid in during that quarter with as much spontaniety as any tax it ever dis charged ; and there must be a very large balance still out standing—much larger in all probability than the sum total already received. Next quarter's returns—which will not however exhibit the income tax returns for a year —may then equalise. NOTTINGHAM ELECTION. —The nomin a ti on t oo k p l ace on Wednesday. Mr. Gisborne, Mr. Walter, junr., and Mr. Feargus O'Connor were severally proposed and addressed the electors; but at the close of the proceedings Mr. O'Con nor withdrew. On a show of hands, it was declared to be in favour of Mr. Gisborne, when a poll was demanded on behalf of Mr. Walter, which would take place on the follow ing day (yesterday). LORD MAYOR'S DINNER.—On Wednesday, the Lord Mayor of London gave a splendid banquet to Sir Robert Peel and a distinguished party. The healthy of Sir Robert Peel and the Lord Chancellor were ♦ery warmly honoured. We observe the name of Lord Sandon amongst the company. Noon PAVING.—!I memorial has recently been presented to the Lords of the Privy Council, praying for relief from the duty imposed by the new tariff on the blocks of timber im ported for wood pavement, but their lordships have declined to accede to the request. At the annual meeting of the Dublin and Kingstown Railway Company, on Saturday, the number of passengers booked at all the stations during the past year was stated to be 1,368,633. Gross income, £42,401. Profits of working the railway for the year, £21,801. A dividend of five per cent. was adopted. THE LAUREATESIIIP.—Our readers will, we think, be gratified to learn that Her Majesty offered the office made vacant by the death of his friend Southey to Wordsworth. He has gratefully declined the proffered honour on occount of his age. To-morrow (Friday) will be his birthday, and it will be the 73rd. His declining to accept the office is as reasonable and becoming, on account of his advanced age, as was the offer of it, on account of his exalted merit. Mr. Wordsworth attended the funeral of his friend Southey, and is in good health for his time of life.— Horning Post. THE PRINCE AND PRINCESS.—The Royal children will, it is fully expected, reside for the benefit of the sea air in Lord Ashburton's villa at Stoke's-bay during the ensuing summer. An officer of the household has this week been inspecting the premises, to ascertain if it contains sufficient accommodation for Lady Lyttleton, the governess, and the small household that will accompany the interesting infants. No situation in England is better adapted for the purpose designed than that fixed on ; it is dry and commanding, without being so elevated as to court the keen air, and is far removed from any stagnant water, or the miasma arising from tidal mud land, the shore of Stoke's-bay being mud and shin ;le.—Hampshire Telegraph. ACCOUCHEMENT OF HER MAJESTY.—Every preparation has been made at Buckingham Palace in anticipation of this highly interesting event, which is expected to take place before the termination of the ensuing week. It will be re membered that (in November, 1841) for several days previ ously to the birth of his Royal Highness the Prince of Wales, and up to the morning of the day preceding Her Majesty's accouchement, the Queen, accompanied by her illustrious consort, promenaded daily, as usual, in the private grounds attached to Buckingham Palace; thus showing that the ge neral health of the Sovereign upon that occasion, as upon the present, continued in its usual state of excellence to the latest period. The following physicians will be in attendance at Buckingham Palace at the accouchement of Her Majesty Dr. Charles Locock, first physician accoucheur to the Queen ; Dr. Robert Ferguson, second physician accoucheur; and Sir James Clark, Her Majesty's physician in ordinary. Mr. Richard Blagden, surgeon accoucheur to the Queen, will also be in attendance. Mrs. Lilly, the monthly nurse, who was in attendance upon,Her Majesty at the birth of the Princess Royal and the Prince of Wales, has received the Queen's commands to resume her important duties upon the forth coming auspicious occasion. The Court is not expected to return to Windsor until a few days before the Ascot races. Her Majesty, should the state of the Sovereign's health permit, has arranged to leave Buckingham Palace for Clare mont within a month from the period of the Royal accouche ment, and there to remain for about a week or ten days, re turning from thence to Buckingham Palace for a few days previously to the Court's; departure to Windily; for the NUWIDer season. 411 •1 1 , z 19' ' ri,o b &nib.

" Sir,—l have been a sufferer for seven years, both eyes being so swollen as to cause blindness. Among the many medical gentlemen who attended me was the famous oculist, Dr. Alexander : indeed, I do believe my case was beyond all their skill. ' Physic, bleeding, blistering, with a seaton, and all kinds of lotions, but no relief,' till chancing one day being led by your house, in 39, Broad-street, Bloomsbury, my guide inquired if I had tried your Eye Snuff, on which I purchased a ls. 3d. canister, opened it in the shop, took some, and was greatly relieved before I reached my home. I can with truth assert, and make oath if required to do so, that it was your Eye Snuff cured me. Shall be happy to answer any inquiry.—l am sir, yours gratefully, " L. S. BREWER." To Wm. Grimstone, Esq. November 6,1841. Sir,—Having seen your advertisements, I inquired of some of those gentlemen who have derived so much relief from using " your Eye Snuff."

CHARLES ROBERT ELI *** The various JVorks have been assigned to Ti usteesUpon Trust for the Subscribers. THE BIBLE is that !published by Macklin; the best edition of the best of books, expanded, with the Illus trative Engravings, into Forty-five large folio volumes, in superb condition, and it contains nearly Seven Thousand Drawings and Engravings, among which are all the most in teresting works that illustrate, pictorially, the sacred text. The Times newspaper has described these illustrations justly, as extending through productions of the most perfect art, at every period, from that of Michael Angelo to that of Reynolds and West. The work also contains One Hundred and Thirteen original Drawings and Vignette Embellish ments to the several Books of the Holy Scriptures, by P. J. 1k Loutherbourg, R.A.; and also manuscripts of the Dedi cations and various other appropriate and beautiful speci mens of penmanship. Engravings and Etchings after Rat: _ladle, Marc Antonio, Albert Darer, Callot, Rembrandt, &c., constitute the mass of the illuminations, and they in clude every ocular fact, circumstance, and object to which the holy writ alludes. Trees, Plants, Flowers, Quadrupeds, Birds, Fishes, Insects,—Fossils in proof of the universal Deluge, and the most complete and perfect Atlases, are among the subjects of these splendid illustrations. According to the present plan, there will he Three Hun dred and Fifty Subscribers at Ten Guineas each, to contest for this gorgeous prize. The Proprietor intends not to re tain a single Ticket, and the decision will be made after the plan of the Art-Union, as to the modes of drawing for the prizes at that Institution. The decision will take place at Mrs. PARKES'S, No. 22, Golden-square ; of which notice shall be sent at least ten days previous to the day of drawing. The Subscribers present will be competent to proceed to the decision, and whoever proves the successful competitor, to him or her will be assigned the Forty-five Volumes of BOWYER'S UNIQUE BIBLE, with its gorgeous illus trations, to be removed at his or her expense. The other prize will be drawn for at the same time. It is an original picture by the late W. HILTON, R.A., one of the best productions from his hand, and its subject the Trium phal Entry of the Duke of Wellington into Madrid, on the 12th of August, 1812. It ought to be understood, that, though the holder of a Ten Guinea Ticket may possess one or other of these great works,—TlLE BIBLE, OR HILTON'S PICTURE,—yet those who do not gain either will not be loser* ; for, every Sub scriber receives prints to the full value of his Ten Guinea Ticket, to be selected from the annexed lists ; so that, in fact, his chances ,for the Bible and the Picture cost him nothing. The novel features of this plan are—that every purchaser of a ticket receives immediately the full value of his money, independently of his future chance. Every purchaser of a ticket of Ten Guineas, is not only in the condition of a private purchaser of plates to that amount, but he has in virtue of that ticket a chance of securing to himself the great Bible Prize of 3,000 Guineas value, or the great Picture Prize of 500 Guineas value. It cannot, there fore, be doubted that the Subscription List, which is limited to 350 names, will be shortly filled up, and an early applica tion is recommended to all intending purchasers. The Illustrated Bible, in 45 large folio volumes, may be inspected any day, between the hours of eleven and four, at the house of Mrs. PARKES, 22, Golden-square, where Hil ton's Picture may also be seen. The plan at present proposed for drawing is as follows :- 350 Tickets, with the Subscribers' Dames thereon, to be placed in a wheel for that purpose. The first drawn name will be entitled to Hilton's Picture; the last drawn name will have the 45 splendid volumes of the Holy Scriptures. Each Subscriber receiving the full value of his Prints not connected with either of the great prizes, so that there can be no blanks. LIST OF PUBLICATIONS FROM WHICH A SELECTION MAY BE MADE.

COLONIAL INTELLIGENCE, WEST INDIES, The devastation of the earthquake in Antigua, Guadaloupe, and the other contiguous places, was the great topic of dis cussion, and although Demerara, Barbadoes, Trinidad, and Jamaica have severally furnished funds to liquidate and ap pease the necessities of the communities who have been so sorely afflicted by this unexpected calamity, a further appeal is made to the British public at home to give some assistance on the occasion. The Antigua Legislature have addressed a petition to Lord Stanley, asking a loan from Government of the amount of £lOO,OOO at a moderate rate of intere s t, t o b e paid by instalments at such periods as it may be e x p e di ent to dictate after a benevolent consideration of the deep dis tress occasioned by their late melancholy visitation. On the condition and appearance of the crops favourable opinions are expressed, the weather being stated as highly congenial to the operations of agriculture. At ilarbadoe and Antigua the comet had been seen. The produce shipped from Trinidad from the Ist of April to the 28th of Febr uary was 410 hogsheads, 127 tierces , 117 barrels of sugar; 264 . puncheons, 6 tierces of molasses ; 334,5351 b of cocoa, and 22,6341 b of coffee. do Jamaica mail has been received by this arrival, some irregularity in the system of intercolonial communication being hinted at as the cause of the delay. Most of the island papers continue their complaints respecting the deficiency o f the arrangements of the Royal Mail Steam Packet Company. LIVING ON THE WEST COAST OF AFRICA. A friend who has seen a letter from Africa, has fav oured us with the following extract. After describing th e country, &c., th e writer (a lady) says :—" We had a dish of shrimps for break fast this morning, and I managed to eat one whole one and the part of another. They are of an immense size in thi s part. I had the curiosity to measure and weigh one, and found it (which you will hardly credit, but which is perfectly correct) to measure ten inches in length, four in circumfer ence, and weighed a quarter of a pound. Oysters (real natives) are sold at 2s. per hundred ; milk one penny a wine glassful ; and flour Is. per pound !"—Presion Pilot. SLAVE TRADE ON TUE WEST COAST OF AFRICA.—E x . tract of a letter dated Clarence, Fernando Po, Oct. 10 : " On the 2nd instant the bark Ermalinda Segarda, prize to Her .Majesty's ship Madagascar , with 120 slaves, arrived here in a very leaky state, having struck on the bar of the river in which she was captured , knocked away her forefoot and damaged the forepart of the keel. The day after she arrived here she was hauled upon the beach, in expectation that it would be possible to repair the damaged parts so as enable her to proceed with the slaves to Sierra Leone . ; this not being accomplished, the slaves and their provisions have been landed here, and the prize crew put on board the Sou dan. The vessel remains on the beach, where she tills every tide, and will consequently become a wreck. The slaves have been placed under the charge of Mr. H ensrnan. Th e inhabitants of this town app li e d to the c ommander of the Madagascar to apportio n the liberated sla d yes to th of em, but he declined doing s,o.

It was' reported that two negroes in the service of Ibrahim Pasha had died of the plague at Cairo. Some alterations were n about to b it c ain int and ro duced into the commercial treaty betwee Great be Turkey. The British merchants of Alexandria had been called upon to furnish Sir Stratford Canning with their ob servations on the subject, and had already met several times for the purpose. There appears to have been a general out cry against the new bank, the directors of which were re garded as incompetent for the task. The accounts from Syria were of the 10th ult. The country was tranquil, and the Kaimacans were still engaged in adjusting the claims of the sufferers by the last insurrections. -- - • - OTAIIEITE .—The Nation al (Paris Paper) states, that Admiral Dupetit-'l'houars has not accepted solely the alliance offered him by the Queen of Ota!mite, but that he has really taken possession of the Society Islands.

We have received, in anticipation of the Indian Mail, the following intelligence : MALTA, MARCIf 30. The Oriental, which has just arrived, brings news from India of the Ist of March, and from China of the 21st of January. On the 17th of February. General Napier gained a brilliant victory in Seinde, near Hyderabad, after a desperate combat of three hours. The Belochee army of 22,000 men were completely over thrown by 2,700 English, who had 250 men killed and wounded, including 18 officers. The insurrection in Bundelkund was making great pro _ _ gress. - Lord Ellenborough had returned to Delhi on the sth of February. . _ In China the most perfect tranquility continued, and pro gress had been made towards the conclusion of the treaty. Major Malcolm arrived on the lltn at Bombay, and started again for Hong Kong on the lbtli. There was no news in the Paris papers of the 3d. The house of Rothschild had obtained the quicksilver con tract for 81i piasters per quintal. for four years. The steamer Teviot arrived at Falmouth on Sunday with the West India mails. She brings no Jamaica mail, the steamer not being ready to bring it up. Her dates are, from Tampico, the 21st of February; Vera Cruz, the 26th of Fe bruary ; Havannah, the 9th of March ; Nassau, the 11th ; Bermuda, the 18th;' and from Fayal the 27th. She brings 23 passengers, and on freight 360,000 dollars, and 170 serous of cochineal. On the 16th of February a heavy norther was experienced at Vera Cruz, in which five foreign vessels were driven on shore from their anchors, three of which became total wrecks. Campeachy continued to be blockaded by the Mexicans, and the Montezuma steamer had left th . ther from Vera Cruz, on the 23d of February, having in tow transports conveying reinforcements to the amount of 500 troops. Nearly the whole of the British seamen in the service of the Mexican expedition had left, and there was much sickness prevailing at Campeachy. Dates from Vera Cruz are to the 26th of February, by which we learn that Santa Anna intended leaving that city for the capital on the day following. From St. Thomas's, we learn that several slight shocks of earthquake have been experienced there since the departure of the last mail-boat, but causing no injury of any kind. A supplement to the Guiana Times, under date March 4, from George-town, expresses most warmly the feelings of disap pointment and annoyance which pervaded the public mind there on discovering that the Medway steamer, which had ar rived on that day, brought no European mails ; cud, as the return mails were to be closed and despatched the following day, they would be excluded replying to their European let ters for another fortnight. Money was stated to be very scarce there, and the best bills of exchange could find no pur chasers, which depressed state of things was mainly to be at tributed to their (the colonists') ignorance of the temper of the Imperial Parliament, with reference to immigration from Africa, and of the tone assumed by her Majesty's Govern ment upon that and the sugar duties as indicated by the Queen's speech. _ ( f . - 1
