we are happy to state that steps are being taken
in Birmingham to procure the required change.
An association, calling itself the "Income Tax
Reform Association," has there been formed,
under the presidency of Mr. MUNTZ, M.P., and
Mr. SCHOLEFIELD, M.P., and its first address
now lies before us. The association disclaims any
desire tosembarrass the Government, or to escape
a fair and honest amount of taxation, and feels
assured that "an equitable adjustment of the
Income and Property Tax will materially assist
the Government by facilitating the collection of
revenue, and removing the injustice aid oppres-
sion which are goading the tat-paying classes
into a state of discontent and disaffection." Tie
objection against the tax, as now applied, is, in
its opinion, so great that "no Government can
long maintain it," and, in the prospect of a pos-
sible increase and a certain continuance of the
tax, with a general election imminent, the asso-
ciation discovers increased motives for action.
The principles of the association are, "that there
should be an equitable adjustment of the Income
and Property Tax, and especially that Income
Tax paid from businesses and professions ought
not to exceed an equitable proportion of £hat paid
from realised property. That, on appeal, a state-
ment of income, supported by the oath or decla-
ration of the tax-payer, as to his belief of his
income, shall be final. That every member of
the society shall use his influence to induce all
candidates for the representation of the people in
Parliament to support the above principles."
Some of the more prominent objections to the
tax are enumerated ; among these is the severity
and injustice with which it presses upon property
accumulating as compared with property accumu-
lated, and the following is given by way of illus-
tration :
"Take the case of a man who is accumulating a com-
petency for himself and his family—we will suppose the
desired sum to be 10,0001.—0 f course the illustration
will apply equally to any larger or smaller sum. Upon
every farthing of this money, as it is earned and saved,
he pays the Income Tax—we will call it 7 per cent. It
is, thus, on the property itself, in the course of invest-
ment, not on the income of it, that the 7 per cent. is paid.
The man who already possesses 10,000/., in a landed
estate, pays the tax on the income only—that is to say,
assuming the rental to be 350/. per annum, and the tax
7 per cent., he pays 241. 10s. per annum tax; while the
man whose 10,0001. is in course of investment, pays,
first the tax of 7 per cent. on the gross amount, or 7001.
out of capital, and afterwards, in addition, he pays the
tax on the income of the investment, whatever it may be.
The one property is saved and invested, the other has to
be earned. Why is the money earned by labour and
talent to pay 7001. out of capital, when that which has
not to be worked for does not so pay one farthing ?
Common sense, and common justice, if any difference be
made, would just reverse the pressure."
The distinction between the two sources of in-
come and the effect of taxing the possessors alike
are thus put :—" In the one case, tax the income
as you will, the source which produces it remains,
and will produce it still ; in the other case, the
vitality of the producing power is sapped, and the
source of income may terminate in a moment.
- . . To tax the creative power of wealth is
indeed costly to our national resources." Another
objection arising from the above is that the tax is
a violation of the principles of free trade, and it
is shown how prejudicially it operates on pro-
duction—being " equivalent to so much addition
to the cost of the raw material." The objection
that it is an irresponsible power, to be secretly
exercised, is forcibly urged, and it is definitely pro-
posed, Ist, to capitalise all incomes, and tax them
at their value as property—to do which, it is said,
will occasion no difficulty; 2d, as to industrial
incomes, to permit every man to make his return,
which shall be final, under the sanction of an oath
or solemn declaration. These propositions of the
Committee world not, it is well observed, " mete
out exact justice in all cases, for that is impos-
sible ; but they would be a near, probably the
nearest, possible approximation, and they would
destroy the gross and palpable injustice of the

AMERICA.

Ipresent system, and be the means of preserving
direct taxation." To this imperfect outline it is
I not necessary for us at present to add more than
the expression of a desire that the movement,
hopefully inauguratted, may be carried on with an

energy proportioned to the importance of the re-
form sought for. Unbiassed common sense has
long pronounced against the unequal distribution
and inquisitorial collection of the tax, and no
theory, however sophistically and eloquently de-
fended, can stand against that. Perseverance
and energy have only to be exhibited to insure
success ; and we confidently trust the Association
will not prove wanting in these.

Parliament cannot possibly be prorogued this
week, as had confidently been anticipated, and as
the Ministerial whitebait dinner seemed to indi-
cate. There is still business which cannot be
concluded before the beginning of next week.
It is, therefore, probable that Tuesday will be the
day of prorogation, although there is still a pos-
sibility that all may be accomplished so as to
allow the anxiously-looked-for " breaking up" on
Monday.

GUST 9, 1855

A Vienna letter, in the Cologne Gazette, states
that the re-establishment of the provincial con-
gregations in the Italian States of Austria is soon
to be followed by the representative institutions in
the other countries of the Crown, under the form
of private councils attached to the administrative
authorities. Trade, schools, public charity, &c.,
will be under their superintendence. One of the
first questions to be laid before them by the Impe-
rial Government will be the re-organisation of the
communes. These councils are to be composed of,
the representatives of the landed interest, town-
ships, the clergy, and the university. They are
only to give their opinion upon matters laid before
them by the Government, but the initiative is to
be granted to certain committees to be presided
over by the governors of provinces.

The Cologne Gazette states from Berlin, sth,
that. M. de Manteuffel has been sent for to Erd-
reansdorff by the King of Prussia. The members
_of the old nobility had hitherto refused to sit in
the Ist Chamber, on the ground that they would
then Jose certain privileges conferred upon them
by the federal act of 1815. A circular has now
been addressed to them, requesting. each to prove
his privileges separately, they not being the same
for all.

MADLLE. RACHEL'S DEPARTURE FOR

We' are enabled to announce that this gifted trage-
dienne, whose inimitable powers have created such a
sensation among the fashionable audiences that have
crowded St. James's Theatre during the week, will take
her departure for America to-morrow morning, her
route being as follows, viz. :—She will leave Euston-
square station at 10 a.m., arrive at Liverpool 4.50, pro-
ceed to the Waterloo Hotel for the evening, and em-
bark on Saturday morning on board the Pacific for
the United States, accompanied by her sisters, M.
Raphael Felix (Directeur pour Mademoiselle Rachel's
cong4s) and a complete troupe, comprising 30 artistes.
Madlle. Rachel will take with her the good wishes
of A -110 st of admirers, who confidently anticipate
that - those remarkPble talents that have fascinated
the elite of the capitals of Europe will in the new world
be equally appreciated, and rewarded with a commen-
surate pecupiary success.
The public here, we must not neglect to add, are
greatly indebted to Mr. Mitchell, the enterprising lessee
of the St. James's Theatre, for the, opportunity just
afforded them to witness some of this celebrated trage-
dienne's most admired impersonations.

THE FRENCH PLAYS.—Maddle. Rachel's brief engage-
ment with Mr. Mitchell terminated last night, when, she
appeared for the second time, by general desire, as
Adrienne Lecouvreur, and acted with all that extraordi'
nary and unrivalled genius to which we have, on former
occasions striven to do justice. Madlle. Rachel's deli-
neation Of Adrienne Lecouvreur has been too recently
criticised in this journal to need further comment. It is
one of her greatest efforts in the modern drama, and
never perhaps was this fact more powerfully exemplified
than it was last night, when her performance elicited
throughout applause of the most enthusiastic kind, from
an audience which filled every corner of the house.

the public journals. We should have passed it over in
silence, like many other official and semiofficial declara-
tions directed against Russia with intentions more or
less hostile ; but the British agents received instructions
to communicate it officially to the Governments to which
they are accredited, and this makes it obligatory upon
us to explain ourselves towards friendly Governments
who do not refuse to grant some confidence to our words,
and to, the intentions of the Imperial Cabinet.
" The English Government dwells upon two points in
our circular of the 28th of April. We therein said :
" ' Ist. An English envoy with a flag of truce has
notified at Port Baltic that foreign. vessels—that is to
Say, neutral vessels--which were there might leave the
port, but only in ballast or with cargoes not Russian
property.
" `2d. Being asked whether the vessels which might
leave on the faith of that notification would be allowed
bo depart freely without the risk of being stopped by
cruisers they might meet at sea, the English Envoy de-
clared that he could not answer for it, as it might he
very possible that the English Admiral should make
other arrangements later.'
"In replying to the first point the English Ministry
changes, perhaps inadvertently, the word Russian pro-
perty into Russian produce, and it quotes a passage from
the report made by Captain Watson to his superior. It
is therein said :
" `Neutral vessels being in port laden with Russian
produce (rye and gin) have received permission to leave
for their respective destinations, which they have done.'
Now, a superficial knowledge of jurisprudence relative
to the rights of neutrality is sufficient to discern the es-
sential difference presented by these two versions. That
of the English officer does net exclude the supposition
that Russian property on board neutral vessels will not
be respected. It does not contradict the declaration re-
ceived by the local authorities from the mouth of that
officer—namely, that neutral vessels might leave the
ports but only with cargoes not Russian property. It
must, however, be observed that Captain Watson has
not re-produced in his report the terms of his notifica-
tion to the authorities of Port Baltic, in like manner as
the British Government has not thought fit to make
public the order in virtue of which that officer fulfilled his
mission.
" We have no reason to grant less confidence to the
veracity of our authorities than the British Government
grants to that of the officers of the English navy. The
prohibition declared for neutral vessels to export mer-
chandise, Russian property, was understood by the
foreign captains at Port Baltic, as well as by the local
authorities. Moreover, we had no reason to be sur-
prised at it. The declaration published by the London
Gazette, on the 28th of March of last year, says, among
things :
" 'To preserve the trade of neutrals from any useless
impediment, her Majesty is disposed, for the present,
to relinquish a portion of the rights of war conferred
by the law of nations. . . Her Majesty renounces
the right of seizing enemy's merchandise on board neu-
tral vessels, unless it be contraband of war.'
"The French declaration of the 29th of March, con-
certed with the British Government, is no less explicit.
It says :
"'' His Majesty the Emperor of the French consents
for the present to relinquish a portion of the rights, &c.
The vessels of his Majesty will not seize enemy's pro-
perty on .board a neutral vessel, unless,' &c , &c.
"These dispositions adopted for the present were there-
fore only temporary, the British Government reserving
to itself the right of having again recourse whenever it
might think fit b the exercise of what it considered a
right emanating from public law. It was allowable,
therefore, to infer from the notification of Captain Wat
son, such as it was made, that the British Government
had the intention of returning to the doctrine that ' the
flag does not cover the cargo.' And, as we were the first
to receive that information, it was our duty to inform
thereof the Governments who are on terms of peace and
amity with Russia. This we did by our circular of the
28th of April (10th May) simply, without bitterness,
without comment.
" If there was an error or a misapprehension, it would
have been worthy of the British Government to disavow
simply and without any gratuitous suppositions, the in-
tention attributed to it. The neutral States and we our-
selves would have taken note of such disavowal.
"As regards the Second Point, that which concerns
the ulterior pourparlers with the English Envoy (panic-
mentaire) at Port Baltic refers also to the text of Cap-
tain Watson. That officer explains himself as follows
to his commanding officer :
" 'The governor asked me,' he says, ' whether I could
promise that they (the neutral vessels which had re-
ceived permission to leave with Russian produce) would
not be molested or stopped. I replied that the procla-
mation of her Majesty was clear and precise, that he
must be guided by it, and that, in case of their being
captured, the affair would be decided by the Admiralty
Court."
" Captain Watson adds :
".`_The Governor asked me to allow four fishing-
stiati-ckis- undecked, to proceed to Riga ; and, having in-
formed you of that request, as well as of the names of
the neutral vessels at anchor in the port and of their re-
spective cargoes, I communicated to him your permis-
sion for them to sail, informing him at the same time
that you had no intention of molesting the town or any
fishing-smack, but that you could not guarantee that those
boats would not be molested, as the Commander-in-Chief
was expOtcd, and he might issue other orders.'
" Thra-repoll serves in sense measure to complete and
confirms in every point what we say in our circular of
the 28th of April. We have not therein made any
allusion to the fishing-smacks, as that did not concern
the trade of neutrals. But Captain Watson bears out
what we announced,—namely, that he was not able to
reply in a positive manner to the question put to him.
As regards the fishing-smacks he was obliged to refer
to other orders which the dommander-smacks,
-Chief might
have occasion to issue ; and, as regards neutral vessels
which might have sailed on tile faith of his notification,
he points out to them without disguise the possibility of
their being captured despite of it, and of their being
brought before the English Admiralty Court.
"We abstain from any ulterior reflection, trusting to
the impartial judgment of friendly Governments ; and,
as the circular of the British Government has been offi
cially communicated to them, the Imperial missions are
authorised to do the same with this present."

RUSSIAN CIRCULAR.

THE MURDER OF A POLICE IVSPECTOR
AND RIOTS AT HASLEMERE.

ADJOURNED INQUEST, AND APPREHENSION
OF ANOTHER MAN.
HASLEMERE, WEDNESDAY NIGHT.
This morning Mr. C. J. Woods, the coroner for West
Surrey, resumed, at the White Horse Inn, in this town,
the adjourned inquest respecting the death of Mr. Wm.
Donaldson, the unfortunate inspector of the Surrey cor -
stahulary who was brutally murdered during the riot
that took place on Saturday week.
The greatest excitement still prevails in the town,
and no event that has taken place for many years in this
part of the county has caused such a painful sensation
amongst all classes here.
The Learned Coroner, upon resuming the proceedings,
remarked'upon the fact that the magistrates had refused
to allow the men who had been taken into custody on
suspicion of causing the death of the poor fellow Donald-
son to be brought before the jury. He knew of no court
except his own where such obstacles existed. His opin-
ion was that the gentlemen of the jury could not be act-
ing in conformity with the oath they had taken, by
returning a verdict of wilful murder, or even of man-
slaughter, against persons with whom, perhaps, they had
never seen, only having heard of them by name. He bad
made up his mind that he would not be stultified him-
self by the prisoners being kept away, and he hoped the
jury would not. If his officer was not to be respected
when he applied for the prisoners to be brought before
his court, the sooner the office was at an end the better.
He had, however, two courses open—viz., to apply to
the Secretary of State, or to the Court of Queen's
Bench for a mandamus to show cause why the pri-
soners should not be produced in court to hear
the evidenc&against them. As the parties implicated
were not in attendance, he proposed to take the evi-
dence of Freestone, the injured police-officer, and be
would their adjourn the-case sine die.
The jury perfectly concurred in the remarks of the
coroner ; and they proceeded to the residence of the un-
fortunate police-officer, who is not yet considered out of
danger. The evidence of the man having been taken
(which-is only a repetition of what has previously been
given in this paper), the jury returned to the inquest-
rootn, and the witnesses signed the depositions taken on
the previous occasion, with the exception of Mr. Biss-
hopp, whose head was severely injured fromlthe effects of
the blows he had received.
The Jury said that they could not separate without
expressing their thanks to Mr. Bisshopp for the manner
he had acted on the occasion, and the great risk ho ran
of losing his own life whilst assisting the deceased.
The int:test was then adjourned sine die.
, Another Man named Smith, sworn to by some of the
witnesses, has been apprehended at Andover by some of
the Hampshire police, in consequence of the description
given of him in the Police Gazette, and he was brought
to Guildford this morning. He will be examined before
the magistrates on Saturday next.

sador of France and the Countess Persigny entertained
a select party at dinner on Tuesday evening, at the re-
sidence of the French Embassy, Albert gate House.
