The Chairman, in opening the procsedings, obseiie4 that he had been very unexpectedly called upon to take the Chair; but though he could not say that he was entirelv`a Scotch man, yet he was proud to say that he had a gre4t, deal of Scotch blood in his veins—(bear, hear)—and,. on that account, was glad to be In'esent, and assist the meetino• carrying out the' object for which they hid met. (Hear, hear) The chairman then real the resolutions which were adopted at the great national meeting, held in the King's Park, Stirling, on' Tuesday; the 24th of June last, and at which the Earl of Elgin presided. The resolutions de clared the claims of Sir, William Wallace, as the successful defender of the independence and liberty of Scotland, to a national monument to his memory • and appointed a central Anntrriittee to carry out that object. Having read the reso lutions, the chairman, in toiclusion, expressed a hope that thry would be• warmly responded to by every one connected xvitb the ;kingdom of Scotland ; and that they would yet ere errcted, cm - 1 the scene of his glory, some monument worthy of the fame and honour of the hero of Scotland. (Applause.) .Mr. James Buchanan moved that the following gentle men be appointed a local committee, to co-operate with the central committee in S'irlicgr—J. C. Ewart, M P., James Buchanan; Waiter Macgregor, ;fames C )x, James Aikin, George . Maxwell, James C. Bnyd, L. H. M•ln , vre, and James Petrie (with power to add to their numbers). Mr. George Maxwell seeonded the resolution, and observed that, if no monument were ever ctected to his memory, the remembrance of the deeds of Wallace would e.ver ,live in the minds of his contrymen: (sear,. hear.) He was a great hero, and an early reformer; and for that, he (lr. iNfaxwell) honoured his memory. (Hear, hear.) The resection was unanimously adopted. On the - nioticin of Mr. Walter Macgregor, Mr. Thomas Mills was Sppoirited , honorary secretary to the committee. Mr. Macfie, jn,acknoivledging the vote of_thanks which was passed to him - for the - gratnitous use of-the hall, said that-he • phould be. sorry if it werde ,thought that there WnS any need of a monument to. Wallace. (Hear, hear.) He believed there vrar, no such feeling, and that gratitude to Wallace still it )wed.through the veins of all Scotehmen, (He.r, hear.) There were many other good Scotchmen, but to n , ne did they owe go ranch as to Wallace. He was not only a man of war but a patriot; and, b 9 his actions and eourmel, led Bruce, who, at the time, pp of doubtful allegiance to the Scottish nation, to become the practical defender of her rights and liberties, full? up to the extent.of Wallace himself. Both were, in truth, a noble pair, and would long - be held in grateful, affctionate,'and reverential remembrance._ (Hear, hear ) . . Mr, P. E. Po've, of Edinburgh, observed that there was one feature in connection With. the history of Wallace which was overlooked.by the meeting, namely, that Wallace' waS, the true orginator of theidea of nationality as distinguished from a tribe or feudal lord or Monarch, That Flea was a most important item in the progress of modarn times and for that idea of nationality, as distinguished from feudal allegiance, not only Scotland, but England, and every other nation was indebted. He held to the (Me idea of hii count y a 9 distinguished from the feudal monarch, and instead of being the liege min of bis monarch, be was the liege man of hi s country, and by his canntry he stood at all..tirnes. (Hear, hear.) He was the origdnater of nationality, and so was the true founder of the national greatness of every nation that had since attained a grand position on the face of the earth. He was the true founder of national liberty and national greatness, and would live in the -undying memories of his countrymen.

The learned gentleman stated that the prisoheri"'„George Nash; belonged to a firm , calling itself • " Pearce and Nash,'? of London, and who said they were connected in some way with railways. Some years ago, the prisoner induced the company to think that he had done them some service, and they gave him a pass to travel free on the line for some time, but that privilege was long since withdrawn. It would appear that, .on Friday night, the prisoner came by the mail train from London, and that he managed to pass with a forged, ticket... This ticket had passed the collector of tickets on the. line, but, very un fortunately for the prisoner, one of the company's officers saw him at Crewe, and, knowing something ,about, his morernenfs,' he entered the same carriage with him , n-) came to Liverpool. ou arriving at Lithe street, the. officer •told the guard to ilok after the pass ? and. tho - guard insisted on seeing it.

Mr. Lawrence, who is acting as the sllicitot for the petitioning cre3itor, is, de facto. the legal adviser, of the company, who are the promoters of the proceedings in bank ruptey, in order to prevent a forfeiture of the property to the Crown. The bankrupt's beautiful residence at Weybridge is freehold, and is valued by, Mr. Cutten, the broker of the court, at £12,000.

SINGULAR EXEMPTION ieltoll TAXATION. A somewhat startling communication, as to - extensive eva. sions, rather non-payments of the rococo/a Tax, was made to the Cluncil. It appears that one of the, local assessors, having rea.on to believe that the Isle of- .Man Steam Packet Company had never been assessed, and believing it to be liable, made enquiries on the subject from a surveyor. 'He was told that the company did not pay the tax, and was exempt, be cause it bad the head office at Douglas, and only an agent at Liverpool. Not content with the dictum of the surveyor, the Assessor laid the case before the Board of Inland Revenue, the result has been an order from the board to the, company to make out a full account of.all - their profits for the last fourteen . years; on 'which they will, ho, doubt, have to pay up all ar rears—‘z. very. haodsome windfilt fdr the Chancellor of the Ktehequer, rut this is not all ;• a strict enquiry has been ordered as to all other cort,ipanies,nnd also foreign firms having offices r.nd age r tas at'this there is reason to believe, have hitherto enjoyed a shnilar.exemption, to their great •advantage in carrying on- a — competition with English subjects, on the ground of the ... the)" , conduct their business, and derive 'a ionsiderah ... portion of their profits here, .there is neither •reason net justice in. the exemption, and' it seems likely to' he determined' that there is quite as little law. - It is believed that a - general in . Yes'igation has been, or mill Vie, institUted. throughout the country: • •If the result be such as is ttnticipated, the individual . Who has been the means of setting that investigation on foot, will certainly have strong cla.irns on -ihe corisitreration of the Treasury, which hitherto has been an very-ill served in the matter. His present office is merely honorary. • . • 'JURE& versus INDIRECT .TARkTTOW. •-•- • 1- he PCoreedings of the meeting at the Loildon Tavern, on Monday, to petition for the reduction of the Income Tax to 7d,, 54 the pound s on and after the sth of April Itext,'4nd'for some lniProvement in the mode of assessment, or its total I epeal, as regards trades and professions, were Wetly discussed. From - the report in the Times, it would app ear t h at t h e only speaker who witnessed sound views on the general question involved was Dr. J. Watts. This gentleman called the attention of the meeting to souse Important facts, Supposing the tax wholly - repealed, and the ordinary revenue to be again £4,000,000, he showed that it would be necessary for government- to raise about five-sixths of this amount by indi rect taxation. Now, the sums realised by customs and excise duties did not properly represent tbp amount of indirect taxa tion, because (in addition to the cost of collection) something like'2s per cent. must be added to the amount during the transit of the commodities from the favorer to the consumer. Thus, if the Income and Property Tax were reduced one half, the tai payers would bo relieved to till amount of about £8,006,000 ; but if the Fame amount of indirect taxes, in the shape of duties, were repealed : Ale amount of r?,llpf to the country would be at least X10;000,000. It was Observed that th.o extra cost, beyond.the amount' Of the duties, was estimated and, it . was ordered that tracts of •the subject, shgtild be forvnrded ill. too iow ht the AsFociation, bearin, to Dr. Watts. ,SINGULAR APPOINTSfRNT. The attention of the ednit”if• Tvas directed to a statemeut in tho 4llas newspaper, recorded stnlifOikly_a, a fact, allowing- that improper influenee.3 are sill in operation at the Rose Guards, viz , the anolintmont of a Mr. Sotto:i, who cannot ride, to the ohice of Ridiny'lfaster, at the Maidstone depot, on condition that he proceeds to lianoi—r for the purpose of qualifying himself to teach others. This, if true, beats the modest pro posal of the applicant for an organist's situation, to learn to play if the salary suited, all for nothing; biit the trip to Ilane ver was considered the strangest part of the story, inasmuch as the continental mode of equitation is, in the opinion of English judges of the art, that w hi c h i s most try i ng both to man and orse. INCOME TAY COL LECTORS —DISCOUNT ON PRE PAYMENTS. A member of the association, at Birkenhead, on the 22nd November, writing to the secretary, says,—" I am happy to" inform pot} chit the working man, mentioned in your report as having been assessed on C 150; was, to-day,' re'i Commis s i oners . eved by the To enabl e him to obtain this act of pure jus tice, I and another gentleman had to devote considerable time in' Searching books, for a period of three years, making cecula tions, and also a written statement of particulars, accompanied ay certificates of verity. Ought not the person who causedall this trolibleirninvite terriintinetate us for it? I wish some lawyer of pluck would try the question, at his own risk, in the, County Court. If he were successful, he would have his hands full' of similar cases." The same correspondent says,—" There is a point to which' am desirous of directing the attention of your council, and, through Your reports, that of taxpayers. The l4ist aectien of the 4th and 6:h Victoria, c. 35, enacts that It shall be lawful . fer any person to pay in advance, to the receiver of stamps and taxes, any sum of money charged as aforesaid, and to'require a certificate acknowledging such pay. went, on production of the not ce - of assessment at the time of p!tyrnent ; and the, receiver-general is to make an allowance '.at the rate of le per cent., per annum on the sums paid in advance,' If all taxpayers had the good sense to 'av a il them. selves of this privilege, the question- 77 ' What is the use of collectors, if they are not obliged to call fir the money I''— 'would be answered in the most practical and useful manner possible." As the liooks of assessment are not yet in the hands of the collectors, _they are . not, therefroFe; in a p os iit on t o demand immediate 'payment .of the half-year. All. who have received notices of assessment, and do not intend to appeal, can, at once, avail themselves of the clause above quoted', by remitting -the whole year's• Lace to the receiver general-of ettimtos and taxes, at Somerset lot se, London, deducting the . allowance at 4:.per. cent, per annum, from the daY'the'remlttanco must reach hi, hands to the 20th March pexr." "The course of action in our district will he this :—A Meeting will be held of a given number, who will bring their Money and notices. These will be handed over to one of the numbbr, who will procure a bank post bill in favour of the ReceiVer-general: A list of the names and amounts -will be made otit,.containing the deductions or allowances i!eriatint, to ho forwarded-with-the remittances and notices. The tax— payer; residentin London, can, of course, take or send the tax to the Recniver f General. It may came him a little extra trouble, but.that is-riot-our affairs, it is the law : and he'must just put lip with the annoyance of reiciving, as , we. are .obliged t 4 d o with that of pry*, which, I imagine, is rather the more disagreealkle. operation .of • the two." • • The taxpayer who apeces, his . to 'claim ,up his notice to the' eenimiskiono ; tint - iLany- assess - went should go out agaii7sf him, he may avail - himself of the privilege as soon as a demand paper is handed to him. But in such cases I should suggest that notice in writing should he given to the ,callcctor; to prevent his distraining for the half year past due: If this privilege be generally resorted to, and if the amount realised this year by the tax be fifteen millions,. the saving to the. Exche quer in pourniage.would be abeut £ 175,000 !" " By the way, it.was understood that the Chancellor of the Exchequer intended to reliev;i'tlie‘ country of the co lectors' poundage on; the double tax; but the act 19 and 20 Vie , - e. 89, only afters and regitlaiee, •' the allowances to-the clerks to the cColanissioners.'
