warrant to eat down Mu tress, they cat down a hundred.
HOMO it was clear that the government made nothing by
being timber merchants, and the goofier they gave it up the
Wier. Mr. Chambers then referred to the enormous
same sopoodee in diplomatic servioes, sad stain that
our olpinany Mt us annually 170,0001., which was
exeluive of about 80,0001. paid for special minions.
ANN detailing the item paid to • number of the
pfdpal anthaesadon, he asked if it was not altogether '
unergess that each • system should be allowed to on ?

item is 21,0001. a year to the Duke of Cumberland, who
was at present the reigning King of Harover ; and a great
number of sums paid to individual" who never did anything
for their passions. He would be the last man to take •
penny from any man that had dose any service to his coun-
try. lie held that young min enterang the army or navy
should be paid the beet price that was paid by
any state ; but he would say to them, "no • we
expect that you will do your duty for it ; and when you are
no longer able to perform your functions, we will give
you • proper retiring allowance." Mr. Chambers then
alluded to the large nuns that were paid annually for the
pones of Dublin and London, as well as the grants given
yearly to the benevolent institutions of the former city ; and
said mat it was unfair to give nothing to Scotland for those
purposes,
when so much wee given to England and to Ire-
Mr. Chambers concluded, amidst much applause,
by proposing the first reao,ution, wh oh was as follows :
That the national enanom an at paean in a most unsatisfactory
amain" there being not only on emcee of erpestilture over re-
venue, but an enormous waste in various detainment& of the state.
Mr. A. Dueboe (Advocate) said : For the last three or
four years this country, in financial mattes, was se it were
swimming for existence, the income being unable to meet the
expenditure, and trying to make up the deficiency
here at one time and there at another. (Hear, hear.)
The government could scarcely pay the curtest
expenditure of the year. Now this state of things must be put
an end to—(great applause)—because, if they wanton as they
were deing, they must make up their minds to look in the
face all those terrible dangers to which embarrassed finances
have always exposed,and must continue to expose,every nation.
lhey must have an expenditure lees than their income ; nay,
they must have a surplus income over their expenditare, or
they must be prepared to face dangers which were boyuad
all calculation. The question, then, was how a surplus in-
come could be realised. It has been proved that for the last
two or three years there has been increased taxation. The
country will not beat this, and it ought not to bear it. The
only way, therefore, is which a surplus income can be
effected was by a reduction of the expenditure ; and,
lat whatever sacrifico, this must be done. (Meer.)
He wished that all those men seri served the country should
be well paid; and no class of men knew better that it was
ski worst economy to underpay valuable services than those
who were now swig in promoting financial reform—men ,
who were engsg in conducting trading establishments, and
who knew the also of good services, and that it was the
worst economy that could be conceived of to give inadequate
remuneration for that service. (Loud applause.) But
what those who were engaged in prosecuting financial
reform must incest upon was, that men should not be
paid tor doing nothing at all, and that estahlithmenm should
not be kept up beyond the country's necessity. The learned
gentleman then went over some of the topics touched
ea by Mr. Chambers especially the treaties ex-
penditure for our naval and military fovea. As re-
po& the colones, the speaker continued, that he
trusted that the government would soon see that they must
treat their colonies as young nations, to be trained for as-
suming a position of thderndence as lion as it suited the
mutual interests and inclinations of both parties. (Hoar.)
A relief from the enormous amount of taxation under which
this country groans would add to its firmness, its stability,
and its rape ability in the eyes of foreign nations, and it
would be of further advantage to the government itself, in
enabling it to patror.ise the liberal arts, and to promote in-
ternal Improvements. The removal of a considerable
portion of the taxes would give an enormous im-
petus to the commerce of the coantry. That was
an object of the utmost importance. The learned
gentleman then stated that he conceived that the pas.
state of taxation upon tin great mass of the people
had an injurious effect in regard to their moral improvement.
As an earnest friend nth. aristocracy and of the constitution
of the country, be depreeated from his soul the existence
of anything that created irritation between the different
claims of the community; and he connived that it was
the duty of the aristocracy themselves, if they wore deer.
sighted to their own real and true interests, to do away with
every real and apparent ground for irritation and dislike
on the part of the lower:orders, and to make 00010011 CUM
with them, end to show that they were all members of
the same oemismity, and they were willing to pro-
mote the common good. (Loud applause.) then it
was also of immense consequence that financial
reform should be conceded, in order to enlist the cordial
support of the groat male of the people in their existing con-
stitution. It was very painful to thank that the proposed
reform did not came ham their raters. (Hear, hear.) He
had hoped that after the passing of the B.eform Bill the
Government would have Wan the initiative in matters of
this kind, instead of compelling the country to resort to agi.
t 'dos. He regretted, however, to say, that it was only by
agitatios that any relief had been ebtaiued ; and they were
now rill compelled to agitate, instead of having cause to re-
joice in the carculastince that their rulers were going before
them in the march of improvement. (Heir.)
Mr. Carts. Cowan, M.P., in a short address, urged that
petitions should be sent into the legislature from all puts of
Me country, and said that he would support the movement
in his place in the Hoses of Commons.
The resolution wastage agreed to.

other things connected with the book-keeping ot the
country which he could motion ; for instance, the
natimal debt. of Eagland and Ire/and were still kept
repass% as well as the consolidated hada of Great Britain
and Ireland ; just as if Great Britain and Ireland were two
distinct nations, whereas they were incorporated into one at
the period of the salon in HMO. (Applause) In reality,
this system of =partial in making up the books of the
country rendered it quite impossible for any man who did
not sit down and take a week to ,tidy • groat variety of blue
books, and that with the greatest possible trouble, to bar en
accurate idea of the moneys which were paid out. He passed
from that as one of the things weigh they wished to have re-
formed to much graver matters. fie had stated that the ex-
penditu of the sorry was about 54 millions. Now of
re
this, 28 minima ware expended in the shape of payment' of
the interest of the national debt. That could not be med-
dled with. The national creditors' rights would not be in-
vaded by anything he should say. Such an enormous sum
was set down under the war establishment, that it left the
civil government altogether insignificant in amount. The
present amount paid for the war establishment was 18 tail-
bone. This, with the 28 millions of interest on the national
debt, which he considered to be nothing more than a post-
poned war-tax, brought the total payment of this country
for the war principle to 46 millions. (Heir.) The sum •4 18
millions was so vast, that they could not form a right or
adequate idea of its amount They
.saw the figures
liaise them, but they could not form in their imagina-
tion w tat it would buy. He would, therefore,
suggest to their mind some idea of it The annual
metal of Edinburgh and its Inbar was about 500,0001.
and taking the property at 25 years' purchase, which would
be 12,600,0001., it thus appeared that eight months of the
present -.or expenditure was equal to the value of the whole
fee simple of Edinburgh. As • similar comperison could be
drawn in reference to Glasgow, Liverpool, )bincbeeter and
other cities, they had the startling tact of the war expenditure
gradually owsllowing up the wholevalue of the country. It was
alleged that this expenditure os the war establishment was re-
gaited to defend the country from invasion, but he believed that
to be a complete fallacy. The greater proportion of our arra

UNITED IfeDtaTitlAL SCHOOI.B.-•-The general
numb* of the hands of this institution was bold cm
Tuesday at Edinburgh. The children of the school were
resent, and brought specimens of their work at the turning
lathe, and in carpentry, tailoring, and shoemaking. The
boys were elad in stout fustian jackets, waircouts, and tem.
secs, 'made by themselves ; and the gale in the produce of
their own needlework —lle. Adam Black was called to the
chair—The report eat out by stating that " the object of
the United lodsarial Schools was to plass an institution of
this desaiptioa an a fowt'dstion that would not exclude
directly or indireatly, the children of my considerable ciao,
of the Christian community of this empire. The school m
erased, with the attendance et 60 children, on the 30th
November lest. Oa the 13th of Jan. the number was raised.
to 75 i and, on the 26th Feba to 100. The report the*
alluded to the kind of education whist, was given in the school.
The boys were taught tailoring, shoemaking, and some of the
first stagi aof carpentry, tin. ; and the girls knitting, sewing,
and Rah household duties as would qualify them for dome.-
tie esrvents."—The Chairman stated, in the course of his
speech, that When he gist entered upon dice as lord pria.
Yost. he found that the number of those who were in gaol
generally averaged about 400; but, before he left office, they
had reached to 700. They might ask from what class did
these comet He would reply that they were those young
persons who were neglected in infancy. And how, he
would oak, was it possible that there could have been any ,
other result? Was it possible that from those who were
ignorant and exposed to temptation, and who had no means
of supplying their daily wants, except by mendicancy, any
other result could be produced than this, that they would go
on from one degree to another until they reach( d that state
of crime which brought them before the tribunals of the ,
country to be punished ? It was in their power to save a
pat many of these youths—to snatch them as brands
from the burning. It was for that object that
these schools had been instituted, and he was
glad to say that they were well calculated for the purpose.
When his attention was first directed to thine schools he con-,
templand that, after they were fairly set a going, there
would not be • tingle juvenile mendicant on the streets, but
that every one would be provided for in these s limb. He
contemplated that he should be able to say to every such
vagrant, How comes it that you are begging ; cannot you
go to the Industrial School 2" But, when he knew that
they could not be accommodated in these schools because
there were not means tor that purpose, it was evident that
the one great object of this institution was frustrated. Until
they were able to remove every one of those children who
were now going about as vagrants on the street- they had
not done their duty. He trusted, when this was known,
that the public would come forward to their relief until them
was not in the streets a single child in a stato of mendicancy.
—Lord Dunfermline stated that, on the opening of the
school, shelter warmth, food, and instruction were found for
the children daring the day. The clue of children who
were fleet brought into the school had never received any in-
struction—bed no notion of cleanliness, order, or propriety,
or any of the circumstances which characterise civilised lite.
It was, therefore a considerable time before the teachers
were able to produce even the semblance of discipline. But
these were not the worst qualities which characterised these
children. They posamed the most unamiable propensities,
haying been expert in thieving tad other vicious habit..
They were now so far reformed that in their conduct to-
wards each other the greatest change may be observed. In-
stead of being, as formerly, anxionstd *ea their neighbours
suderiog, there is seldom any case of • boy's being
amenable to punishment in which some of his companions
do not intercede for him—become security for his future
good conduct—and, in some cases, where punisnment is un-
avoidable, voluntarily offer 0 bear part of it themselves.
In the ort of the teachers one of them says,"As to the pro-
gress which the children have made in education, I may safely
wart that I have never taught domes so very apt to learn.
They exhibit a degree of earneetneu and ingenuity alto-
gether assign to those who have been better fed, and more
carefully attended to." Mr. W. Chambers believed that in
the management of this school they had, in some degree,
solved one of the most difficult problems of the present day,
namely, they of instructing under one roof children be-
longing to different religious denominations, without in any
way infringing on one another's rights. They had in this
school a great number of Roman catholic* and a gr, at num-
ber of protestants who received not only secular education,
but religious instructioa. The children were 'Jumbled in
one large apartment, and were instructed together in secular
education under two teachers ; and one hour a day, between
ten and eleven o'clock, they went into separate rsoms, sad
there received instruction in the different tenets to which
they adhered. In carrying out this arrangement mere had
been no attempt to proselytise either the Itomancatholic or
the protestant children. When it was fully known that
such an object had at length been .accomplished,
they might reasonably expect that it would soon
be followed over the country, and he need not add that
the diffusion of such • system would be of incalculable value..
Bishop Carruthers, Sheriff Gordon, and Lord Murray having
addreesid the meeting, the business was concluded by the
adoption of the report, the appointment of a committee, and
a vote of thanks to the cheirmaa.—The Scotsman, from
which we abridge this report, states in • note that notwith-
standing
the short time the school has Seen in operation, not
fewer than eighteen girls have been sent out as domestic ser-
vants, the whole of whom are giving great satisfaction ; in
fact, the applications for the girls from the isetitation we
more numerous than can be attended te. A number of boys
have been sent to different trades, who are giving satisfaction.
RECLAMATION 01, THE OUTCAST.—On Monday a
public meeting was held at Dundee with the view of hearing
addresses from Sheriff Watson, of isherdeon, and J. H. Wil-
son, Esq., of that My, in reference to the moons which had
attended their efforts there to reclaim the adult members of
the lowest and most depraved portion of the population.—
Mr. Wilson gave an interesting account of what had been
doe* by himself and others to reclaim the vicious portion of
the inhabitants of a district of Aberdeen called Bowl-road.
After the establishment of industrial schools for the young,
it appeared to them that thug was still something necessay
to be done for the grown up. They were desirous to im-
press them with the truths of the gospel, and with that view
they obtained a small room as a place of meeting in the very
midst of the destitution and vice of the city, where two-
thirds, if not three-fourths, of the crime was perpetrated.'
About twelve persons attended the first night, some of
whom promoted the most ferocious appearance that mule/
be imagined. The next sabiath night there were about 71)
came, end the number gradually increased, en that
after some time the room, which was only 14 fret by 8.
became too small. They hen remand on building in the
coarsest and plainat way a small chapel, and this they
effected—the site chosen being s phos formerly occued by
a penny theatre, one of the lowest haunts ot vies fad Abe-
rdeen. To induce the clan they wished to come, they ea-
no-mad that there would be no seat Tents, and ao collection.'
The plain war sated roughly for about 130. At first they
had about 30, the same as in the other place ; but here, too,
• blessing attended their labours, as the number of the ma-
gmata& gradually increased. And the megregation was
composed el that class they were meet desirous to reach—
