Total worth of the society, £14,000. Before the balance-sheet was passed, a Mr. Farren alluded to the item of deficiency by their late president (Mr. Cullen), and said he held in his hand a policy for that amount, which Mr. Cullen had effected at a great expense. Mr. Farren proceeded, at some length, with great warmth, upon the services which Mr. Cullen had rendered to the society. The meeting, how ever, got restless, and the chairman was obliged to put the pilaus on the eloquence of Mr. Farren. The balance-sheet was then passed.---The next business was the election of a president for the ensuing year. Mr, M'Farlane and Mr. Mudge were proposed : Mr. Mudge, however, was elected by a large majority. Th. beeretary was re-elected, and members of committee were als o elected to servo during the year. The auditor was re-elected. A vote of thanks was then passed to the chairman ; • and the meeting, which bore 44,„ Lee usual boisterous . character of " Royal Oak" notoriety, then dispersed -in coMparative quietness, the only breach of the peace being committed by Mr. Farren, who struck a poor fellow, wh o w as a b ou t h a lf th e s i ze of the as . _•, • . iiailant, in the mouth, when going down stairs.

After quoting the small items of the crown and the miscel laneous papers, he stated that the total result of the year might be considered as satisfactory, showing a produce of 05,477,000, against an e,stimate of M 3,920,000. As liditure so many unforeseen events had occurred that I should net give the estimates on that head actual results.

FORGED BANK OF ENGLAND NOTES FROM THE Covn r.---A respectable' Bradford shipping house was the. ier 'day made aware that they were paying to their cus. mers forged Bank of England notes.

The notes had every appearance upon the face of them of being genuine, but were embossed in imitation of the water nark. The firm from whom the notes had been received hen found that among a large roll of good notes they had aany counterfeit ones, similar to those returned as worth :,ss. They -consequently took immediate steps to ensure the xamine.tion of all notes recently: paid by them to customers. he notes, it was supposed, had been received from the c'om ercial representative of the firm at Zurich, in Switzerland, d had, doubtless, been passed to him in exchange for gold.

The total amount was /64,340,u0u. ou estimates of Mr. Disraeli, taken on the same basis last year, was £63,920,00Q. The estimate .for. expenditure was as follows : Funded avd unfunded debt, , £28,600,000 ; eharge.s on the consolidated fund, £1,960,000; army, £13,300,000 ; navy, £12,780,000 ; ,civil service, £7,825,000 ; and the collection; of ; revenue,. £4,740,000 lie enumerated several sing out of the items o: stabulary, aro other; chard There were some items • o: iucrease araoun decrease, which, make the balanc to £580,000.

The present case differed both in principle and in amount. (Hear, hear.) There never was a time what the nation was more able or more willinglp comply with fresh demands. Another reason for ,alAtai ing from borrowing was that the Secretary_ for India would, before long, appear in the market witl} a lemand for a thew loan on behalf of that Country.

The'revenue ti . .om spirits had greatly increas'ed' of late, and' he' thought it dangerous to meddle with it, especially as that increase might now be considered to form part o the permanent revenue of the country. .Again, he 'objected to any farther increase in the duties On tea and 'Sugar, not only on account of the consumer, but on general . grounds. In time of war preference was given to direct over indirect taxation, and yet expensei which might be considered the result of the war, had since the close of the war been paid in a much larger proportimE After this consideration he came to the point which might have been':auticipated. The income tax remains. lie entered upon the hi4tOry of the tax, showin g that it was introduced for the purpose of permitting. meat financial re forth to be earned out, and 'with that view it had been re peatedly successful, it had gained its favour in a time of peace, and was associated with changes which had turned out . most salutary and beneficial. Other purPoses of the legitimate when defence wag to be pro- tax were equally vided for the honour and safety Of the country. 6inee the establishment of the tax, the revenue had increased, but the expenditure had increased still faster ; but this, inclUdino• the £2,000,000 which' the country would gain on the long annuities next year, there would . haVe been a surplus 'of £7,000,00Q, which would have extinguished the income Tax, andtheother taxeslaid on in consequence of the war. BefOre, however, he came to the Income Tax, he must advert to' a small means of increase in the revenue arising from the malt credit. Hitherto the inaltster obtained a delay in the payment of hiS citifies, Which he proposed to reduce to six weeks, charging hiM four per cent. in case, he continued his credit. This„ . he calculated, before next April, to bring £780,000 into the Exchequer. As regarded, the Income Tax, he proposed to add 4d. 'in the pound to the Present tax, in the ''case of incomes above £l5O, and 12d. for incomes lietWeen . £lOO and £l5O. It was right hat a distinction should be made between the two ; it .would be further necessary that the whole of the in- crease should fall within - the year. The half-years assessments, payable inthe autumn and the whiter would, therefore, altogether be sixpence halfpenny for_ neomes, and .XlOO, and 4d. for incomes -- under that MIL "He calculated on receiving £4,340',000 from that.source ; which, added to .the sum derived from the malt credit of £253,000 over the deficienc)'.

I saw clay taken - from the hill-side powder, and transforined into the densbrick:s pc it once for the kiln, in the short space of, ,or thirty seconds. ',l:he mill is formed of a pan,. in which revolve two heavy rollers to ride over the material when tin charge is excessive. Beyond the solid metal of this pan oE I whit - ft the rollers runs is - a grating through which t clay drops to a pan below, whence it is raised, by elevators, to a hopper- above. the revolving mould table, when it is sub ject to enormous pressure from beneath ad above to expel the air. The table is,turned by a tappet wheel, and moves the length of one mould . each time. This action. delivers two empty moulds under the hoppers to receive claY, delivers two bricks from above. The moulding part of the machine I weighs 25 tons. With six moulds, and driven by a 6-liorse engine, at four strokes' to deliver 24 bricks per niinute, it is capable of giVing 330 tons' pressure on the six bricks. There were dense bricks exhibited made 'from pure dry silieia, which would,' of course, require great' pressure; ordinary clays require a pressure varying from 20 to .30 tons each brick.—Correspondence of the Western Press.
