There has been a fulling off in the Quarter's
Revenue just ended, compared with the correspond-
ing quarter, of 8'20,0001. It is true that the quarter
ending on the sth of January, 1820, was unusually
'imitative, on accollat oC a surplus of sugar duties
paid in by anticipm ion, yet tie present inferiority,
inasninch as the new taxes have since come into full
uptTation, must excite in many unpleasant doubts
respecting the continuance of the existing rate of
public income. The Stumps, on the comparative
view of the two years, have hillen 30,0001 not-
withstanding the unprecedented number of News-
papers published during her Majesty's trial. The
. revenue of the Post Office has again diminished, the
deficiency being 80,0001. and upon the Land 'Tax'
there is a falling off to the amount of 40,0001.
There is also a diminution in the Miscellaneous
Services of 100,0001. and there has been an increase
in the Assessed Taxes of 130,0001.; but this includes
the new duties, which, with the increase on the Malt
Duty, amounting to 200,0001. it is stated, hus occa-
sioned an excess of Revenue in the year just ended,
above that of the year preceding it, of '2,300,0001.
—There is, however, in this extended view of the
Revenue which the Report referred to exhibits, a
virtual deficiency of 80,0001. since the new taxes,
which have been solely elfxtive in that period, should
have produced $,139,0001. according to the original
estimate. It must be also recollected that the produce
of the plan for allowing a composition fur the As-
• sessed Tuxes tin- three rurs is included in the Report
to which %1, 3 have alluded, which is an anticipation
of the surplus tax, and !..ow is the deficiency to be
made up at the expiratiorirof that period? We have
also reason to believe, that the new survey relative
to the Assessed Taxes throughout the country has
been, together with the printing, prodigious ex-
pensive, and that this new plan has fallen exceed.
ingly short of the expectation entertained by the
Chancellor of the bxchequer of its productiveness.
We hope we are mistaken in our view of the subject,
for it would be a fortunate circumstance ii the taxes
were doubly productive, as then we should of course
be relieved from a large pardon of our heavy bur-
thens ; but it is much better to look the affairs of the
country full in the face, than to shun inquiry, and
feel the effects of a fatal delusion.

It is re!ated at Lyons,lthit when it was announced
is Lelievre, the monster who was tried tier the mur-
der of his wives and child, that his child had been
found on the coast of the Rhone, he demanded with
eagerness to which department the Rhone belonged.
They replied to him, that it was situated in the de-
partment of the Isere, and that there was no longer
any doubt of its identity. After appearing to have
reflected for a few moments : " It is impossible,"
said he, coolly. This single word is sufficient to de-
scribe this extraordinary man; the only one perhaps,
. that could remain unconcerned at the discovery of
so many crimes.

A meeting was held on Friday in the Ward of
Cripplegute ‘Vithout, to vote Petitions to the two
Houses of Parliament for the insertion of her
Majesty's name in the Liturgy, was most respectably
attended, and the greatest possible harmony pre-
vailed throughout the whole of the proceedings.—
The Petitions were carried with acclamation.—
Alderman Wood, in the course of his speech,
alluded to that part of the public press, which is
constantly persecuting and libelling the Queen, and
and which the public now arc convinced must be
the " licentious press" referred to with so much
anger in the loyal undresses. The worthy Alder-
man, however, assured the meeting, that so fur from
its injuring her Majesty, it has unintentionally done
infinite service to the Queen, and mentioned some
fitcts that completely established the truth and aceu-
r.tey of his observation. He also repeated that it
was the dam 'inflation of her Majesty to reside,
during the remainder of her days, in this Country,
live among a people who has shown such unahatin,*
devotion to her cause, and feel so deeply interested
in every thing that regards her honour, her r:glits,
aid her weltitte. _

DECISION Or THE OREAT SKATING MATCH.--.
Thursday, at one o'clock, the match for lOu gui-
guineas to skate a mile in three minutes, was decided.
Previously to the match helm, perforated, the man
was the favourite, and was lucked at odds at Tat-
tersall's and other places. 'file person selected to
preform the match appears tt, b a countryman in
the neighbourhood of the funs. He started a few
seconds bethre time, and came up in Speed to the
scratch at the mo7nent appointed, and perliirmed
the distance in seven seconds under the three minutes.
At first it was reported in town that a dispute had
arisen as to the correctness V the time-keepers. The
report is. however, unfounded. The spot selected
for the pertbrmance was on the fens, near to Isieham,
four miles from Elp, and 11 miler from Newmarket.
Considerable bets were depending en the match,
and the result has surprised most person, though
without reason : we have no doubt a steady. slater
might pertinco a mile in two minutes.

CORN EXCHANGE, MONDAY, JAN. N.
We had a large supply of Wheat at market this morning,
consisting chiefly of what remained over from last week's markets,
as in consequence of the weather lately we have had scarcely any
arrivals from our own coast during the last week : the demand
for the finest samples was pretty brisk, but for the inferior des-
criptions there was a dull sale at our last prices. Barley was
alth dull in sale, and the inferior sorts were is. per quarter lower.
The supply of Oats was not very large, but as there seems very
little disposition on the part of the consumers to purchase, that
article experienced a trifling reduction. In other articles there
is no alteration.

CORN EXCHANGE. WEDNESDAY, JAW. 10.
We had a very small supply of Wheat at market this morning,
only a few fresh samples having appeared, but there seemed to
be very little disposition to purchase in consequence of the
expectation of some fresh arrivals from our own coast, and the
prices may be considered nominally as on Monday. Barley was
also dull in sale, but the prices remain the same. The supply of
Oats was but small, the primest samples of which obtained
Monday's prices, but there Is no demand for the inferior descrip-
tions. Beans and Yeas are on the decline. In other articles
there was no alteration.

CORN EXCHANGE, FRIDAY. JAW. lit.
We have had but few fresh samples of Wheat at Market sines
Monday, notwithstanding there is now no impediment in the
way of working the vessels in the river; the demand for fine
Wilco was pretty brisk, and a few samples obtained Monday's
prices, but there was no disposition to purchase in large guaati..
ties. Barley also supported Monday's prices. In Oats, Beans.
and Peas. there was but little business doing. sad no alteration
in the prices.
