The market for the home funds is quiet as re garde

operations in Consols, however, are unimportant,

character, bargains having been effected in most other

the largest share of attention.

An important question was argued yesterday in
the Lord Mayor's Court (and reported in last
evening's Express), upon an application for a foreign
attachment pursuant to the right and custom or the
City on the. pact of Mr. Wordsworth, a Spanish bond-
holder, against Messrs. Stone and Martin, and the
Spanish coned, garnishees, the Queen of Spain being
made defendant. The plaintiff in an affidavit of debt
swore that the Queen of Spain was indebted to him
in the sum of 10,0001. fur certain bonds and interest
accruing since 1834, and that the, garnishees had in
their hands monies of the Queen of Spain. It will be
remembered that we were the first to announce these
proceedings some time ago, and that in consequence
transactions in the 3 per cent. stock were suspended
until Messrs. Stone and Martin were indemnified by
parties here connected with Spanish finance, and the
dividend was paid is due course. Until now the mat-
ter has been waiting for a bearing.
If the bondholders had a permanent agent at
Madrid this is an opportunity which would lot be
lost. The agent would take care that the case should
be put into the Spanish papers and brought before the
Spanish public. As it is, the individual bondholders
must do the best they can, and one very useful mea-
sure is for each to send copies of the paper containing
thecaee to such Spanish newspapers, ministers, sena-
tors, deputies, and public men, as he may know the
names of, not forgetting the English ambassador, Mr.
Weisweller, the Spanish commission on the debt,
and the agents of the Amsterdam bondholders. It
will not do any great harm if from want of concert
among individual bondholders Senor Bravo Murillo,
Senor Beltrande Lis, or Senor °cane receives a
score of papers. The postage is only a halfpenny.
We know nothing more likely to disgust a the.
rough Spaniard than the report of this trial. There
is the application from a creditor who has
been unpaid since 1834 ; and there is the
publicity given to the legal proceedings in
the
.journals, which have great weight in Spain.
Nor is the manner in which the dignity of Spain is
upheld by its representatives of the wig and gown at
all more acceptable. One of the counsel was kind
enough to suggest that the Queen of Spain was not
properly described, that she was not responsible for
the acts of the Queen Regent, and that her Majesty
the Queen of Spain knows as much about this matter
as the Emperor of China does. The judge, however,
considered that there was no ambiguity in the
affidavit ; it is historical that there is the
Queen of Spain and that she is Donna Isabella:
and a barrister suggested that although her Majesty
knows nothing about it, her %elegy's ministers do,
and that it is positively stated and well understood
in the Cortes that these claims will be liquidated.
A plea was put forward that the proceedings
are against the law of nations, and that they were in
the nature of an arrest of a foreign king or ambas-
sador in time of peace, which would be held a justi-
fiable ground of war. The judge was not, however,
deterred by these assertions, for he adhered to the
rights and customs of the City of London,
which involve the assertion of that very ancient
practice in the Jura be& et paces, the detenue of
alien and home goods for general claims. The city
of London has confirmed to it by charter the medie-
val practice of seizing the goods even of English
citizens; and a citizen of London, who could not ob-
tain justice from a Manchester debtor, can still claim
the right of seizing any Manchester goods within
jurisdiction until justice is done to him on account of
his debtor. The Spanish authorities are not to be
persuaded that the proceedings in the city court in-
volve anything offensive to the person of the head of
their state, and there is no civilian in the world who
dare from the authority of the law of nations, even
if he could bring Vattel or Story on his side, disprove
the right of the city to detain the property of the
Queen of Spain. The Spadah authorities will be
guided by precedent, and they will recollect the pre-
cedent of a former sovereign of Spain, who was sued
in the Court of Chancery, and acknowledged the
jurisdiction.

LONDON, THURSDAY, JANUARY 30.

Mr. PORTIA published in the last number of the
Statistics( Journal an acciont of the self-imposed
taxation of the lower orders of this country.
An officer of the inland revenue has just published
an account of the assessed taxes, in which he de-
scribes the careful aed the wholesale way in which
the rich evade even that portion of taxation laid upon
them.
According to Mr. PORTER, the poor earners of this
errantry extend fifty-seven millions sterling annually
in spirits, beer, and tobacco. Of this sum from one-
third to one-half finds its way into the coffers of the
CtIANCELLOR of the Excnecteen, and enables the
state to pay the interest of the debt, support the army,
the establishments, and so on.
As a act{ ff against the twenty or twenty-five mil-
lions raised on the poor, there ie the income tax,
from which they are exempt, but which falls hea-
viest, as does the window tax, and as will do the
house tax, noon middling fortunes and struggling
men. But let us confine ourselves at present chiefly
to the taxes on luxury, which form a portion of the
aseeseed taxes, and are der fined to fall exclusively on
the rich. These are levied on servants, carriages,
bargee, dogs, and produced 1,153,0001. in 1847, being
114,0001. less than is 1842.
Let us first take the article of four-wheeled car-
riages, that certainly which may be considered most
characteristic of the rich and easy clesees. (1f these
there were, in 1848, the number of 7,818, of which
not USW. than 1,972, or about one-fourth, paid
any tax. The other three-fourths were low-wheeled
and exempt. Of two-wheeled carriages there were
about 60,000, bat more than half were exempt from
duty. On servants—on horses—were we to go into
the history of each tax, and the ways in which it is
seseesed, and evaded, the same moral would appear :
which is, that the rich most easily and readily evade
taxes, whilst the poor blindly and eagerly iocar them.
It is not the moment, perhaps, to dwell on the ine-
qualities of the window tax, seeing that it is so univer-
sally condemned ; but it may be as well to remember
that in the distribution of this tax houses paving
from 25/. to 4111. rent were assess, d at from 15 to 20
per cvnt., whilst large howl paOng from 1001. to
2,0001., a year rent were aremed at from 11 to 21 per
Gout . .

Now when writers do start so wildly aghast at
the bare mention of a graduated property tax, they
should recollect that all the old and indirecr, and even
the old and direct taxes ans graduated ; that is, gra-
duated in tio wrong direction, weighing moot heavily
upon humble fortunes. In the present state of our
requirements and resources it is almost impossible to
do at once away with these injustices, with half
a revenue made up from drinks, and thane not drinks
of the rich, to such a degree that a universally adopted
temperance resolution would leave the national debt
high and dry. In such a state of things it is merely
IMO slight approach to restoring an equilibrium
between the tax-paying burdens of different classes
that can be hoped for. But this, without some degree
of graduation, is impossible.
And we are glad to see that practical men, and even
government, universally adopt and admit this. Mr.
Macciaacoa, is his letter to the citizens of Glaegow,
which appeared in the papers of yesterday, and called
forth the animadversion, of the Times, puts forward
his proposal of. graduated property tax. (We give the
main portion of the letter in another page.) Now, we
believe that Sir --.l4.near PILL himself entertained
this ides, and by no means looked upon it as a plan
of spoliation. Nay, we have some idea of having
seen it in some document since seven or eight years,
endorsed with the approbation of the TIMM The
Premiss Minister, we see, proposed the other day
a similar scheme. Mr. M•COREOOR can probably
inform us w bather a graduated property tax has not
higher sanction than even his own; and, if he is able
to do so, he ought. For precedent, in the way of
opinion, is powerful.
We have made considerable objections to the house
tax as most likely to become the foundation of very
large rates, especially on sudden emergencies and un-
expected defalcations of the revenue. We have shown
that even partially improved from what it was, and
nominally equalised, it would still weigh with very
great disproportion on the midole classes, on profes-
sional and industrial end commercial earner.. We
are glad to see so practical a man as the officer of
island taxation, who has published the " Letter on
the Assessed Taxes," not shrink from the true remedy.
Mere is what ha says as the subject of the house tax :
Whoever weeders the relative bearing of a tax upon

the latter, if properly regulated sad of moderate amount,
is far more just and equitable. As a substitute for the

are =soy tad great difficulties, however, in the way of fairly
' regulating such so exemption. It would be by far the best

A house tax upon this basis would probably realise more
than en equivalent for the present window duty.
Without approving of that part of the plan which
levies one shilling in the pound on plsoas of business,
there might still be such • fair assessment and distri-
bution of the house tax, u would leave the exchequer
a very small deficit indeed upon the abrogation of the
wiadow duty. And this would enable the CHAN-
CELLOR to deal with tea, soap, awl the taxis on
knowledge. We have before said, that if any founda-
tion at all be laid for the• house tax, we
most expect it to be raised in a few years
to the proportion inevitable to be assumed by
such a tax. Of what nee an alleviation of two
or three years, with all the trickery and derange,
ments in rents and calculations? There is no quality
of taxation more to be studied and desired than fixity,
especially in the case of houses, which persons take on
lease and fit up upon calculations of years. The house
tax, we may be sure, will never be laid on for the
sake of 600,0001. It were better, therefore, to pay it
at once; or get rid of it at once. In the former case
some of the great obstructions of the customs and
excise might be removed. And the provisional
state in which our fiscal ministers are still keep-
ing us from their own incertitude arid weakness
would be more speedily put an end to.

THE most perplexing question of the day is, what
are we to do with our convicts? The colonies will
have none of them. South Africa has barred the
door against the first batch sent to its shores. The
Lilliputian and ricketty settlement of Western Aus-
tralia has indeed begged to have convicts sent to it,
but is already engaged in a discussion with the Home
Government about the charge it makes for their
board and lodging that is pretty sure to end in a
quarrel. All the rest of the Australian colonies are
leagued to extort from the imperial authorities the
abtlition of the transportation system. The British
North American provinces are silent, but only because
it has not been seriously proposed to send convicts to
them.

It M necessary that the English public and parlia-
ment should be brought to realise the urgency and
importance of the crisis. They must be made to un-
derstand that to continue the transportation of con-
victs to any of our existing colonies situated in
healthy extra-trop.cal latitudes, is morally and physi-
cally impossible.
Within these few years the whole of our annual
convict exportation (with the exception of small de-
tachments sent to one or two of our ocean garrisons)
has been cmcentrated on Van Diemen's Land. Lord
JOHN RUSSELL forewarned the House of Commons
what would be the roost quence of this, whenever the
inhabitants of Van Diemen'■ Land obtained repre-
sentative institutions. His lordship was then fur
giving up transportation as an unclean thing, bad
for all interests, but especially for young countries;
and he fortified his remarks by a quotation from
Lord BACON. That very quotation has now been
adopted by the colonists as a fundamental article of
their political creed, and they are taking the very
steps to put an end to convict transportation to their
island that Lord lons foretold.

It is impossible to exaggerate the intensity and
anivenality of the desire to get rid of convicts, that
animates the free settlers in Tasmania. The very
women have taken the field against the system.
Some hundreds of the most respected matrons of the
colony, headed by the bishop's wife, have petitioned
the QUEEN for its abolition. At the despatch of the
latest advices meetings of the men were being held
all through the island, and mutual engagements were
being entered iato, and the most solemn pledgee given,
that no one would for the future hire another convict,
and that free labourers should be introduced from Port
Phillip. The right, and still more the power of the
colonists to act thus is unquestionable. The whole
expense of supporting all the convi ti in the island
will thereby be thrown upon the public; and, in the
rant temper of the Tasmanians, there can be little
doubt that one of the very first resolves of their first
elective legislature will be to throw the whole of
that expense upon the home government. In
this attitude of defiance to the continuance
of convict transportation, Van Diemen's Land does
net stand alone : auxiliary anti-convict leagues are in
the promos of formation throughout New South Wales
and Victoria. The success of the Cape colonists has
lent additional hope and courage to the movement. It
is clear that the sending of convicts to the Australian
colonies mast be abandoned.

Yet ail our attempts to obtain information respect-
ing the intentions of government force upon us the
unwelcome conclusion, that government are doggedly
wrapping their transportation gaberdine more closely
round them, in the hope that they will be able to
weather this coming storm. The impression eater-
tained by all parties in this country connected with
the tackles colony of Tasmania is, that Lord Guar
resolute to give a trial to the scheme developed in his
despatch to Sir W. DISNIBON of the 25th of last July.
Lord GREY adverts incidentally to the fact that
the rate of wages is lower in Van Diemen's Land than
in the adjoining colonies. This state of affairs has
been brought about by the introduction of an amount
of convict labour into the colony in erase of the de-
mead for labour; and its consequence has been the
almost universal emigration of the free, respectable
labourers to the Australian continent. There are
actually no labourers at present in Van Diemen's
Land bat such as are or have been convicts under re-
straint. Suck being the case, Lord Gary insists upon
the distribution of the convicts throughout the re-
moter districts, where the police is comparatively
weak, and their banishment from the urban districts,
when the police is comparatively strong. And he
admits that the greater frequency of misconduct
among the convicts who have of late years reached
the colony with tickets of leave has been owing to
their having been sent out with that privilege,
although "only a limited number of them bad been
subjected to the improved method of discipline now
in use." The consmonoe of all this is, that life and
property are alike unsafe in Van Diemen's Land, and
the honest proprietary clam is rapidly following the
boast labouring class to the adjacent main; and yet,
with this continuons tendency to emigration of all
that is respectable staring him in the face, Lord Gm
gravely speaks of ensoaraging the immigration " of a
elms of emigrants who will incresee the demand for
labour, and also promote more directly the moral im-
provement in the colony." This alone betrays a
immutable ignorance of the setual coaditien of Tar
maim It is as Utopian es the conddent expectation
expressed by Earl OUT, that the new elective Isgur
Wats will vote away "the territorial mime of the
palmy" for the perpehatioa of a system which la
driving them to despair.
In =priming, as we now do, our conviction that
convict transportation, sa at Rresent carried on, must
be abandoned, we frankly admit oar inability to am
by what mans this is to be aooompliehed. The
