After eimmeratin,, the above iten:c more in detail, particularly I
with reference to the Ways and Mems, the Chancellor of the Ex
chequer said, the produce of the customs last year was near two I,
less than that of the year preceding. The eau-es of this de-
ficiency un6uannately could not he explained, Irwin flit fire %%Inch
had taken place in the Custom Honse.—But though there had Leen
this deficiency in the custoup, there had been a cousiderahle in- ,
crease in•the excise revenue, the produce being greater by one mil-
lion than last year. All the other branches of the revenue were in ;
a flourishing state. In the article of Beer, the produce had been
Nearly equal. In Malt there had been a large increase. The re-
venue from British and Foreign Spirits was also flourishing. In the
article. of Wines, the produce of which for sonic time past had not
been very encouraging, there had been an inciease this year of
400,000%; fur the article of Tea there had been au increase. In the
Stamp Duties there had also been an increase, and in the fort
Mice Duties, though not a very considerable advance. In the As-
es.ed Taxes there had been an increase of about a million--the pro-
duce having advanced from five millions and upwards to six millions !
and upwards. Upon the Land Tar, also there had been an increase
of from 1,051,0001. to 1,039.0001. and the Duties on Offices also
were in a flourishing state. The Property Tax, that great soon re of
revenue, had advanced from twelve millions and upw aids to four-
teen millions and upwards. The revenue of last yea:, as compared
ith the permanent charge, had advanced about one million and an
half. The export of manufactures had been greater than ever befote
knawn. In adverting to the loan, the Chancellor of the Exchequer
stated, that the interest of the debt, contrary to all former piece-
dents, was not to commence from the day of the payment of the
last dividend, but from the moment of the actual subscribing,
by which a six mont'is interest would be saved to the wildly. He
also observed, that by defining the final conclusion of the Loan
until Monday. in consequence of the rise in the Funds since Wed-
nesday last, a saving of a million and a half would accrue. The
rate of interest was 41. 12s. Id. with charges of management, 51. 64.
2.4'd. The first dividend, being exempted from the Property Tax,
fa: Tiled a respectable bonus to the Contractors. The interest of the
Lent would bf provided fbr in the same manner as last Year. It
v, as his intention in a few days to propose to cancel a certain amount
01 stock in the hands of the Commissioners, He stated his beliet,
that sto further Loan would be required during the course of the
year.
Mr. GRENFELL and gr. HUSKISEON said a few words, but re-
served themselves en the subject generally till the regular time for
discussiau should arrive. _ _ _

Mr. PONSONUY observed, that the Chancellor of the Exchequer
had said nothing about the Property Tax. which by law existed till
the sth of ,Ipril next. He considered that there, was an understood
compact between Parliament and the nation, that this tax should
only continue during the war. He thought that to itoluee the peo-
ple to pay their taxes- eheerfally and with good humour, it would
ire for the petbile interest that the compact should be kept, and the
tax not to be continued atter the war.

The Resolutions proposed by the Chancel!or of the F,xebequer
ivere then adopted, and the Peport of the Committee ordered to be
Jrcceived tountarovv.—Adjontued.
