L is idle, then, to exclaim against tailoring,
wrong to bold up to execration large and costly
establishz eats, because they unite splendour of archi-
tecture and exterior, and ready-made goods, with cheap
and money prices. For we may depend upon it tt
not all the costliness of exterior, nor the profusion of
siivertisements, would attract customers, if they could
get their clothes made by tailors in their vicinity at
as thing like rational or anti-credit prices. 't hr
difference between the known cost of the mater al
and its conversion into a coat at a west-end tailor's
is such as to shock the economist- We lately saw
a gentleman just returned from San Francisco. who
stated that he could get there fur a dollar cloth suffi-
cient to make him • cent, whist to get the coat
actually made would have cost him twenty pound s.
MOB6B and Co. were to set up au establishment in
California, are they to be blamed or wondered at for
attracting customers?
In all trade', and especially. in that of tailors,
the more each person comes In contact with the
working tradesmen, the bete r for the confection of the
habit and the condition of the workmen. But the
Erglish public loves a monopoly. They would rather
crowd to the great mart, and wait an hour to be
served, than use their own judgment. The
s, gent " upon the railroad will call for the
Times rather than any other paper, because it
is the old-established monopoly shop. And so with
every thing, whether it be the purchase of a coat, or
the picking up of a political opinion. The English-
man likes what is ready-made to his hand, for that
spares him the pain of judging for himself.
The public, we may depen.t upon it, is more to blame
than the slop-rank' rs. And the purchasers cf shirts are
more to blame fur the grinding of needlewomen than
those who seek to turn a penny by the sale. It is
impossible that such thirgs as clothing made in the
gross can fit as well at d be as rood and perfect as
the same made of penliarly selected materials and
particular measure. But the exorbitance of the pries
in one case has driven the public to the other ex-
treme of the meanness of eece.omy, fro* which mature
experience will produce a reaction.
The work in gross is worst for the artisan, to'
whose countenance, character, or wants the employer
becomes a stranger. The wholesale manufacturer in
this trade is like the landlord who pulls down cot-
tages, and sends his labourer to inhabit a row of
haute' in the suburbs of a town. lie grinds them in
proportion as he knows them not. And from this
isolation and severance of classes proceeds the degra-
dation of the one, the selfishness and peril of the
other.

PARIS, TIIIIMIDAY. 8 30, r.o
The Assembly to-day voted the government law
on the excia.: by a majority of 418 over 245.
Yesterday the business of the Chamber bad been
confined to the rejection of three amendments; that
of M. Mauguin, of which you know the tenour and
rejection ; published; fM. Prudhomme, of which the text
has been and the third by M. Favreau,
allowi..g the tax to be collected till the Ist of Oct.
All these amendments were rejected by large majori-
ties, without leading to anything important in the
shape of debate.
Toe sitting was commenced to-day by a speech
from M. Fould, who said that at the point which the
debate had reached, it was plain that all amendments
tending to the maintenance of the vote of the Consti-
tuent Assembly on the 19th of May were of no avail.
The only remaining amendments which might be
considered as possible wete those tending to modify
the tax and the mode of it levy. Under these cir-
cumst snots, the cabinet wished, and expressed through
him their desire, that the project of law should be
forthwith debated and voted, inumuch as the public
a-rvic_ and the end of the financial year would render
longer delay dangerous. With regard to the ch a ges pro-
posed by certain metub rs, the Assembly, he thought,
would willingly postpone them till after the inquiry
demanded by the government, an inquiry which was
seriously intended, whatever ight be said to the
contrary. M. Latrade complained that M. Fould
wanted to controul the debate, and M. Dupla, the
president, in reply, said that all the amendments
tending to modify the Ist article having been re-
jected, he thought it bat just that a vote should at
once be taken upon it. It was the sole method he
could find to bring the debate to an end. If the
Chamber was of his opinion he would read the first
clause of his motion. The Chamber giving its unani-
mous consent, M. Dupin read the first clause as
follows:
" Art. 3 of the law of May 19, 1849, which says
'that from and after the Ist of January, 1830, the tax
1 on drinks is to be abolished or abrogated."
M. Martin du Loiret pretended that he had an
amendment, which seemed to him to have the prio-
rity over the government project. M. Dupin said
that the amendment was more applicable to the 2nd
article of the project. The Chamber then voted the
Ist clause by serutin de die:sum, with a majority of
379 against 230.
The second clause was then read as follows :
" The tax on drinks, such as it is established by the
present law, is maintained for the year 1850."
M. Martha du Loiret moved, as a themaendment, to i
the purport that, °from and after lst of July,
1850, the tax on drinks shall be abolished, and that
from arid after the same period the following taxes of
* per cent. shall be established, namely, on all capi-
tal consisting in mortgages ; on all shares and public
foods; on all capital of assurance companies; on all
offices of notaries, solicitors, huissiers greffsere, stock-
brokers, and generally all offices and chaoges of
which the transmission is authorised by government."
This amendment was rejec'ed, as also an amendment
of M. Darblay, and another of M. Lagrange. The
second clause was then adopted. Ultimately the law
was voted by the above-mentioned majority.
M. &wryer, as reporter of the budget committee,
Arrairion has been of late much, and we hope brought up a report, adopting durgence the govern-

e 6,000 Queen's troops; in all scarce'y less than
.4000 soldiers. It has from 180 to 200 civil ser-

ters: all paid by the bard-working pesc.:t.ble but re-

Well, some two years ago Sir ROBERT INGLIS
desired to know what the East India Company did

subject. From this document it appears that out
one hundred millions of their subjects the East
India Company educates only 17,000 pert ons ; and that
in Madras it has neither schools nor scholars. The
latter statement appears incredible ; but here is the

SPAIN.

MADRID, Dec 14.
The Gazette contains the nomination of Andres de
Arango as royal commissioner for the inspection of
agriculture throughout the kingdom, and Ventura de
Pugs, and Vamp: Quripo. for similar offices. The
minister of finance publishes the conditions for the
sale of 33,5n5 quintals of quickeilver. which the
government holds in deposit in London. The se 33 585
quintals, which are held by R ohschild and Baring,
AM to be sold to the highest bidder, exclusive of that
wt which may be sold up to the day o' the auction.
The proceeds e f the sale to be paid within a month of
the auction to the president ol the commission of
finances of Spain residit g in London, at the rate of
exchange office dollars per pound sterling, and as fast
as the buyer receives the quicksilver, for the giving
up of which the government will make the necessary

arrangements.
The government will limit the extraction of the
quicksilver of the mines of Almaden and Almadenejo
during two years to 12,000 quintals a Sear, inclusive
of what may to produced by mines discovered, or to
be discovered, in the Peninsula, the government en-
gaging notto sell any quantity duringthat period except
slush as may be rtquired in cone quence of the con-
cessions already made, and will only make use of the
mineral extracted as a security, with the condition of
its not being sold during two years. Tenders must be
sealed, and, according to the governmea model, the
sum to be put in writing and not in figures, with the
sianaturo of the firm or c irporation that makes
the tender. Indeterminate proposals to be consi-
dered as null. No tender will be admitted unless
the patty making it has deposited in the Spanish
Bank of St. Fernando 50,000 di liars in hard cash, or
3,500,000 in paper of the three per cents., or 9,000,000
in the four sad five per cents. an guarantee. This
money will terve as a deposit to swine the perfor-
mance of the contract by the contractor who has bid
highest, but as soon as the contract is made, the
other parties, whose tenders were unsuccessful, shall
receive their deposit money again, and likewise the
contractor his, when the quicksilver has all been paid
fur. The auction will take place on the s'h January.
The greater part of the sitting of the Chamber of
Deputies was taken up in tt.e discu-sion of the purity
of election bill brought in by Olozaga- According
to this de7nty, 200 deputies (out of 349 that have
bre.? sent by their coestitut nts) have attended in their
pt.ce in the Chamber during six years of legislature,
and 199 situations or decorations have been distributed
among them. Olosaga's bill proposes pains and
penalties against the authorities who transgress the
law relative to elections, e-pscially when they un-
justly deprive electors of their right.. Olrzsga
avowed himself a pa bean of as ystem which, followel
out, would lead to universal suffrage, but his bill was
framed in such a way that the nroderado government
could accept it without its being a party question.
Nasvatz was exceedingly courteous in his reply,
eulogising his adversary's eloquence, talent, and pub-
lie virtues, and saying that the government would be
glad to have the bill referred to a committe and exa-
mined, as its importance de-erved. In this Narvaez
proved no small tact, for if he had done otherwise the
cry of the progresista party to their deputies to leave
the Chamber, because there are no guaranties s fir in-
dependent free-speaking deputies, would have become
universal, and the old general, in accepting Message's
bill, gave the " lie circumstantial" to those who made
those cries.
