TO THE EDITOR or THE DAILY TIMES.

Sra.,—May I ask through your columns if Mr..
Bright, the great champion of the industrious and un-
represented classes, intends to support the proposal to
reduce the duty on brandy, and make up the loss by
increasing the income-tax ?
I shall watch with curiosity and not, without interest.
Yours, &c.,
Ova HUNDRED AND FIFTY A-YEAR.
Liverpool, Feb. 18, 1860.

On the removal of the Indian Council, midsummer
next, the old India-house, in Leadenhall-street, will be
sold. It occupies slightly more than acre; and, accord-
ing to report, an offer of £200,000 has already been.
made for it, it is said, as a terminus for all the principal
railways.

CABINET COUNCIL.-A cabinet council was held on
Saturday at the residence of the Premier. The council
was summoned to meet inthe middle of the week, and
held a very protracted sitting. -Sir G. Cornewall Lewis,
the Home Secretary, was sufficiently recovered from his
illness to be present. Earl Granville was expected to
leave town after the council for Brighton, to join the
countess. Previous to the council the ministers received
several deputations, representing interests affected by
the resolutions of the Budget.
