LONDON, MONDAY, OCTOBER 11.

Tim usual Qiarterly Return showing the condi-
tion of the Revenue of Great Britain,waa made up no
Saturday night, and appears in our columns to-day
slid (Ands another satisfactory demonstration of the I
happy re‘ults of Fret Trade and of that financial
policy which the present Ministry obtained office to
upset. Although last year the repeal of the
Window Duties cut off, in one huge slice, • most
important sum from the public inc-me, such is now
the elasticity of the revenue that the proceeds for
the year show very little reduction. With cheap food
and übut:dant employment the great mass of the
population have been able to spend so much money
upon ex, I..able articles—luxuries and requisites
together—that the returns to the national Exche-
quer show an increase under the head of Excise of
114,195f.,—which fact, coupled with an increase of,
133,9321. on stamps. and 26,0001. on the Post-office
income of the year,—shows the activity of business,
and the tin:teasing welfare of the people. Taking
all the items to...zether, we have upon the entire year
ending Oct. 10, 1832, as compared with the year
ending Oct. 10, ROL a decrease of 437,3971.; but
when we r,atauller that more than an annual mil-
lion of taxation was abolished shortly before Lord
DERBY got into power, the general result must be
regarded as indicating the wisdom of reducing national
bunlens and unshackling the notional industry.
The official 9,4ures showing the results tor the
year may bo thus stated:

This great item of decrease in the Taxes on the
year will be wand greatly modified in seriousness,
when we run thl eye along the table to the column
for the quarter, where we see the sum reduced to
3,8101. the difference between the former total
of thewindow-tax, and the present sum realised
by the house duty will explain the temporary defi-
ciency. Thl second item of decrease—that of
84,7321. on the Customs—we shall have something to
my about presently, when speaking more espewially
of the quarterly return, where thedeficiincy in the
Customs rises much higher. Keeping for the present
to oar abstract of the gain and loos upon
the past twelve months we corn to the Excise —the
item always taken in these cases as the one by
which we may must surely test the condition of the
industrious portion of the community. Ilere we
find increase both on year and quarter, and. despite
the abolition of the duty on bricks, we find the =-
improvement to be crowing—the 114,1831. on the
year sweiiing to 143,901 i. on the quarter. 'f his is very

English indictment extends to sixty printed pages,
and is divided into two parts, the first of which
presents a picture of the rue and progress of secret
societies which have been formed threoghout all
Europe under various titles, and plaited in corre-
spondence with each other since 1891. The organi-
sation of these societies is spoken of as extremely
complicated, and formed on the model of that of
the freemasons. The indictment is filled with ex-
tracts from letters, statutes, and documents of all
species, produced to prove that the objects of the
society have always been treasonable. The second
part accuses the prisoners of having been members
of a secret communistic society in the circle of
Cologne.
