the time she is progressed for—viz , the 26tb inst.
Mr. Dent, the newly-appointed storekeeper of De-
vonport Dockyard, entered on his duties on Friday,
very much to the satisfaction of both officers and men
of the establishment.

Ajax, 58, screw guard-ship, Captain Quin, will be
ready by the 16th instant to return to Queenstown.
A court-martial will take place to-day, we under-
stand, on a warrant-officer belonging to her, for
drunkenness. In the absence of Rear-Admiral Su-
perintendent Fanshawe, C. 8., Captain Chads, C. 8.,
of the Excellent, will preside.
Archer, 14, screw steam-sloop, Commander
Strange, has been surveyed, and is not to be paid off.
She will be paid down and refittsd at Portsmouth.
Electra, 14, Commander Morris, will he ready to
go to Spithead the latter end oi: the week, in readi-
ness to receive her orders for Au:stralia.
. Encounter, 16, screw-corvette, Capt. O'Callaghan,
is ready for coming out of dock, at Portsmouth ; she
is to be ready for sea the 16th instant.
Leander, 50, Captain George St. Vincent King, is
to be paid off at Portsmouth about Wednesday next.

appointment pulled well together. The ship's COM, .
Pany are happy and contented, and we think it
would display a want of sound polio?,if officers and
men who understand each other should be separated,
particularly at a moment when the manning of the
nary is occupying the attention of a committee, con.
sisting of some of the most distinguished and expo.
rienced officers in the service.

Simoom screw guard ship, Cap` ain Kingcome, is
awaiting further orders at Spithead. She is all ready
to embark a regiment.
Oriental hired convict ship arri' red at Spithead on
Saturday evening to embark convii :ts for Australia.

PORTSMOUTH, SUNDAY.—The Ilittern, 12, Com-
mander Vansittart, arrived at Spithead this morning,
and the Daring, 12, Commander Yapier, arrived this
evening, from the Nore. Each saluted the Comman-
der-in-Chief on bringing up. Those vessels left the
Nore in company at one P.M. on Friday, and had a
trial of sailing on the way to see which should make
Spithead first. In this trial the, Bittern (one of
Symonds's sloops) has shown grea t superiority over
the Daring, having come to the anchorage about ten
hours before the latter, which iz the celebrated
experimental brig built by White,, of Cowes. The
Bittern goes to the East and the Daring to the Welt
Indies.

MINING INTELLIGENCE.
(From the Mining Journal.)
Transactions during the week have been chiefly con,
fined to the best dividend-paying mines, and those whose
prospects warrant the supposition that they will speedily
arrive at that state. Devon Great Consols have been
told at 4001; B,dford United have advanced to 81 and
81103; Wheal Basset 520/; Wheal Buller, 800/ and
8251; Tremayne to 281 5s and 281 15e; allowing to in-
creased samplings and payment of larger divi-
dends, in consequence of the improved standard
and genteel prospects in the underground ope-
rations. Condurrow, Great Polgooth, Merllyn,

Trevena, and Uny, have been dsalt in at former rates.
West Alfred Consols have advanced to 301, and West
Treasury 91 to 10/. In other shares few transactions
have taken place. In Cornwall, Trumpet Consols have
risen to 1401 ; Mary Ann, 431 ; Wheat Sewn, 2051;
and St. Day United Mines to 21 123 6d per share;
Wheal Clifford, 157/105; and Gonemene, 321.

AN EXTRAORDINARY SHOT...-..A few days since,
Mr. Palmer, head park-keeper to Earl Fitzwilliam, Went-
worth Park, accompanied by his son, the under-keeper, was
out for the purpose of killing a stag. In consequence of the
deer being very wild at this period of the season, the son
took a shot at a stag at full speed, the ball penetrating
behind the ear, and passing along the neck bone through,
the stag, killing, at the same time a fine old buck (through
the head), out of a herd following the stag. What makes

We cannot think this by any means a satisfactory
explanation, for everything exhibited came in duty
free; but any reason whatever, no matter how flimsy,
is preferable to allowing it for one moment to be sup-
posed that free trade had anything to do with it.

FROM THE MORNING PAPERS OF THIS D.A.Y.
TIMES.—AII that can be expected, and all that
has been aimed at of late, in the revision of our na-
tional burden, is to reduce them just so much as to
give the public some perceptible relief without neg-
lecting the paramount duty of wiping off a respectable
instalment of our debt. In the selection of the relief
to be given, the great secret is to repeal those taxes
which happen to be most felt, but whose removal will
not produce a corresponding gap in the revenue.
That these conditions have been fulfilled by the se-
veral last sessions the Quarterly Statement of the
Revenue, published on Saturday, is sufficient proof.
The experiment has been made of reductions estimated
to amount to millions, and the result is that the re-
venue is scarcely affected, and we are paying every
year several millions of our national debt. To begin
with the comparison of the quarter just ending with
the corresponding quarter of last year; in the
first place, we are struck with a diminution in
the Customs to the extent of 298,2641. This is partly
owing to a considerable reduction in the duties upon
sugar and timber, and partly to the irregularities of
commerce, which tell greatly on the comparison of
such short periods as quarters, for an example of
which we need only refer to the previous quarter,
viz., that ending July 5, 1852, which exhibited an
increase to the extent of 183,946/. In the quarter's
Excise there is an increase of 163,9011, which tells
its own tale. In the Stamps, too, there is an increase
of 96.8571., showing the greater activity of trade. In
the assessed taxes of the quarter there is little altera-
tion ;in the receipts of the property-tax there is an
increase of 45,4451., balanced, as it happens, by a de-
crease of 45,0001. in the income of the iost-office.
The result is a net decrease of 53,524/. in the ordi-
nary revenue of the quarter. The comparison is evi-
dently disturbed by the purely accidental fluctuations
of trade, for the receipts of the ordinary revenue are
still more than 70,0001. in advance of those for the quarter
ending October 10, 1850, notwithstanding the im-
mense reductions in the interval. On taking into
account the extraordinary items of revenue, the result
is an increase of 28,929/. in this quarter compared
with the corresponding one last year. In the com-
parison of the whole year just ended with that end-
ing October 10, 1851, the Customs show a decrease
of 84,7521., a figure very far below the estimate of
the reductions recently come into force. In the
Excise there is an increase of 114,1851.; and in
Stamps, of 133,9321. The decrease under the taxes
gives us at least a near approximation to the loss
sustained by the substitution of the inhabited house-
duty for the window-tax. It is 1,157,2011.; about
e hat was anticipated. The year's property-tax ex-
hibits an increase of 53,6381.—50 me comfort to those
who read in the declining receipts of this tax the
approaching ruin of England. The year's receipts
under the Post-office, the Crown lands, and Mis-
cellaneous items, are severally 26,0001., 50,0001.,
and 130,000/. more than in the previous year. In the
year's ordinary revenue there is thus a net decrease of
733,9411., which, though a large sum, is less than half
the estimated loss by the repeal of the window duties
and the other remissions lately come into operation.
On taking into account the extraordinary items, this
decrease is reduced to 437,397/., owing to the repay-
ment of advances, a matter on which the parties as-
sisted with loans, as well as the public, cannot be too
warmly congratulated. We presume that we shall
not now have the improvement of the country denied
simply because there is a decrease at the foot of the
columns. No reasonable being can expect taxes to be
topped off by millions at a time, and the revenue to
he wholly unaffected. If the loss to the revenue is
much lees than the gain to the public, that is all the
prosperity we can possibly desire—it is at least all
that our financiers ever reckoned upon.
CHRONICLE.—The Quarterly Revenue Returns,
made up to the evening of Saturday, the 9th instant,
are of a highly satisfactory character. The decrease
of 298,264 on the Customs during the quarter just
ended, as compared with the corresponding quarter of
last year, is fully explained by the unusually exten-
sive importations which took place during the summer
of 1851, and by the extra consumption resulting
from the Great Exhibition. Some reductions of
duties have also come into operation since that pe-
riod ; but the main cause of the diminished receipts
for the past three months is undoubtedly to be sought
in the fact to which we have alluded—viz , that, from
special circumstances, the importations during a por-
tion of 1851 were of extraordinary magnitude. The
truth of this explanation is sufficiently shown by the
Return itself, from which it will be seen that the de-
crease in the Customs for the year is only 84,7521.; and,
considering the increase which is at present taking
place in certain leading branches of our import trade,
there is every reason to anticipate that the aggregate
Customs revenue of 1852 will be fully equal to that of
1851. But the principal feature of the present Return
is the large increase of 163,9011., or 4 per cent., no
the quarter, in the Excise revenue. It must be re-
membered that this augmentation is not owing to the
imposition of any new daties,but that it arises wholly
from the increased consumption, by the great body of
the people, of articles of comfort and luxury. And it
must further be recollected that the standard of com-
parison is that particular quarter of 1851 when the
influence of the Exhibition was most felt in the de-
mand for exciseablo articles. In other words, the
country is at this moment in so prosperous and
thriving a state that the Excise revenue—which is by
common consent regarded as a peculiarly faithful
index to the condition of the people—rises four per
cent. beyond the amount which it realized, under ex-
ceptionably favourable circumstances, twelve months
ago. In the Stamps also there is an increase for
the quarter, of no less than 96,8571.—a further
proof of the activity of the commerce and industry
of the country in all its branches. We say, in
ill its branches, for so important an addition to
this, item of the revenue indicates, not only that
transactions are rapidly multiplying among the
trading classes, but likewise that there is a brisk
demand for land, houses, and those other objects of
investment which absorb the floating wealth of a pros-
perous community. The taxes exhibit a small de-
crease of 5,8101. on the quarter—arising, we believe
wholly, from the changes connected with the window
duties. It will, however, be seen from the Return
that only. a trifling proportion of this branch of the
national income is received in the April and October
quarters—the principal collections being accounted
for in January and July. In the Property-tax we
find an increase of 45,4451.; whilst the Post-office
shows a decrease of 45,0001. on the quarter, with an
increase of 26,0001. on the year. Under the heads of
Crown Lands and Miscellaneous, we find no sub-
stantial variation, as regards the return for the past
three months, from the corresponding period of last
year. In the Repayments of Advances, however, there
is the considerable increase of 68,7871 ,on the quarter
—a result which is probably due, in a great measure
to the present low rate of interest. Striking a ba-
lance of all the items of increase and decrease, the re-
sult is, that the revenue for the three months just
ended exceeds, by 28,929/. the amount received during
the quarter ending the 10th October, 1851. Passing
from the comparison of the two quarters of which we
have spoken, to examine the results for the two years
respectively ending the 10th October, 1851 and 1852,
we find similar indications of national prosperity and
well-being. In the Customs, as we have said, there
is a small decrease on the year of 84,752/. ; but in the
Excise there is an increase of 114,1851. The Stamps
show an increase of 133,9321.; the Property-tax of
53, 658/. ; and the Post-office of 26,0001. The Crown
Lands have yielded 50,0001. more during the past
year than during the preceding one ; and under the
title Miscellaneous we find an augmentation of
130,2471. There is also an increase of 345,9851.
in Repayment of Advances. With the ex-
ception of the casual decrease in the Customs,
which we have already explained, the only de-
crease on the year is in the Taxes—under which
head, in consequence of the abolition of the window
duties, the falling off is 1,157,2011. The general
result of the Return, as regards the year, is a decrease
of 437,3971.; but if we leave out of view the diminu-
tion which has taken place, from specific and foreseen
causes, in the Taxes, it will be found that the net
increase in the Total Ordinary revenue for the past
twelve months has not been less than 423,2601. We
have again, therefore, to appeal to the Revenue
Returns published under Lord Derby's Administra-
tion, as furnishing a decisive refutation of that
Protectionist creed on the strength of which he was
alone enabled to form a party and a Government.
We have latterly ceased to hear of the Trade
Returns being " cooked," and it has been considered
discreet to desist from seeking signs of national
decay in facts which afford the plainest evidence of
national progress. It is certainly unfortunate for
the Ministers and their supporters that each new
Revenue Return presents precisely the same diffi-
culties to a Protectionist critic.
HERALD.—We have before us the Revenue-
tables for the year ending on Saturday evening, which
will be found in another column, and, considering the
large reductions which have been made in the taxa-
tion of the country, we connot look upon the present
return in any other light than most satisfactory to
the public. In those instances in which the accounts
exhibit a deficit, that deficit is easily explained, with-
out exciting the slightest apprehension as to the re-
sources of the country ; while, on the other hand, it
is gratifying to reflect that those items which exhibit
a surplus are precisely those from which may be in-
ferred the progressive increase in the means of the
community. It is true that there is a decrease on the
revenue of the year, °
as compared with that of 1851,
of 437,397/., but this is to be attributed to the falling-
offBl,
in the produce of the taxes, n
beamounting to

less a sum than 1,157,2011. we remember
that this is the first year following the repeal er
of the
window-tax, this deficit will not appear very sur-
prising, and, at all events, it presents us with no in-
dication whatever with respect to the increased or
decreased comforts of the people. Not so the Excise, i

THE COUNTiti MA RKE TS.

LivxnrooL, OCT. 9.—The trade today is firm, and
'till prices maintained.

MANCHESTER, OCT. 9.—During the week a firmer
feeling was apparent in the trade, which resulted in a
fair consumptive demand for most articles at fully the
previous currency. The arrivals et Liverpool and Run-
corn again comprise tolerably lair quantities of oats and
oatmeal from Ireland, and of wheat, o!'.ti, beans, Indian
corn, and flour from abroad. At our market this morn-
ing wheat fully supported the rates of this day se'n-
nigh% Flour was steady, end in some instances holders
required slightly enhanced prices. In oats cad oatmeal
no char go was ohsprvahle.__

An extraordinary general meeting of this company
was held at Monk's Ferry Hotel, Birkenhead, on
Saturday, for the purpose of considering terms for an
agreement between this company and the London and
North-Western Railway Company.
Mr. J. BANCROFT (the chairman of the company)
presided, and before proceeding to the more imme-
diate business of the day, intimated that on the appli-
cation of Mr. Winch en injunction had been issued
by the Court of Chancery, the object of which was to
restrain the present proceedings. The injunction had
beess served upon the board just before the meeting,
but he was glad to inform the proprietors that it did
not interfere with the objects and intentions of the
board ; and that it was not necessary to alter, in any
degree, what it had been determined to recommend
to the shareholders that day.
The notice having been read by Mr. B. LLOYD, the
solicitor to the company,
The CHAIRMAN went on to state the objects of the
meeting, and to remark that no agreement had been
made or signed. Verbal proposals had been made,
and, as far as the two boards were concerned, agreed
to; and in accordance with the pledge which he
made at the last meeting, those proposals were now
laid before the shareholders for their acceptance, or
otherwise. If accepted the directors would be then
instructed to carry them out without involving the
company in any litigation whatever. The terms
which the London and North-Weatern Company
were prepared to give this company were four per
cent., and to enter into a working arrangement in
the terms of the resolution which would shortly
be proposed to secure such an amount forthwith, until
an Act of Parliament could he oht?ined to secure
the rent in perpetuity. It was needless, the chair-
man further said, to enter into extended statements,
since parties present who bad Interests adverse to
those of the shareholders would be very glad to take
advantage of any loose observations to bring against
the company in Chancery, or elsewhere.—(Hear,
hear.) The proposition which he had indicated was
a very simple one, one of the merits of which the
shareholders would be able to appreciate at once
without discussion. The resolution which, founded
upon the foregoing proposals, he moved was as
follows :
" The chairman having reported that in en interview
he has had with the directors of tho London and North-
Western Railway Company, they have expressed their
willingness to take, under the authority of Parliament,
a lease of the undertaking of the Birkenhead, Lanca-
shire, and Cheshire Junction Railway, at a rent equal to
4 per cent., with the option of redeeming the rent by a
purchase of the undertaking at par; and that until an
Act of Parliament be obtained to enter into a contract
with the Birkenhead, Lancashire, and Cheshire Junc-
tion Railway Company for the division and apportion-
ment of the tolls and charges to be taken and made upon
their respective railways for the traffic passing over the
same, Resolved, That this meeting approves of such an
arrangement, and authorises the directors to effectuate it
by a formal ogrcemout or agreemeuti, and to affix the
company's common seal thereto.
Mr. BROWN seconded the resolution.
Mr. KNox (Great Western) remarked that this was
the first time the proprietors had been called upon to
give such extensive powers to the board. Without
speaking for or against the sufficiency of the terms
proposed by the London and North-Western, he
(Mr. Knox) thought it was of the utmost importance
to the shareholders that they should be fully assured
that such terms would he secured to them, and that
they were not going to enter into an agreement which
it would be in the power of
the London and North-
Western, or any shareholder in that company, to upset
after it was sealed. The agreement, he contended,
should be prepared before the seal of the company was
fixed to it, and submitted to the proprietors ; and he
should therefore move, as an amendment, that the
meeting be adjourned to Saturday, the 23d inst., and
that in the meantime the agreement proposed to be
entered into be printed and circulated amongst the
proprietors.
Mr. ROY (Great Western) seconded the amend-
ment.

NOTTiNGITAM, OCT. 9.—Yestor;lay, at Derby, the at•
tendance of the trade was small, yet wheat sold readily
at late rates. Barley in small supply, and is a quarter
dearer. Wheat, red, 40s to 435 per 36 stone; new ditto,

day we had a small supply of wheat. The demand was
by no means brick, and the prices of last week were ex-
ceeded only in a few instances. Old wheat was less
looked after. Barley was in short supply, aad an ad-
vance of is per quarter was readily obtanird. There
was no change in the value of oats and beans.

CORK, OCT. 8

The CHAIRMAN was delighted with Mr. Knox's
observation as to the " powers which the board was
not accustomed to ask ;" because his own board had
asked and exercised such powers.—(Laughter.) Mr.
Knox did well to make such a distinction in favour
of the Birkenhead Company. The Chairman then
intimated that proxies, far greater in number than he
had anticipated, had been lodged with the board. In
his own name he held proxies representing nearly a
million, or one-half the entire property.
Mr. CATTERAL charged Mr. Knox and his sup-
porters with having interests entirely adverse to
those of the Birkenhead Company, and reprobated
strongly the conduct of gentlemen who came time
after time to those meetings to support their own and
not the company's ends.
Mr. ROY defended himself warmly from the as-
persions which he deemed Mr. Cetteral had thrown
upon himself and Mr. Knox, and was proceeding to
enter into a detail of the original position of the Bir-
kenhead Company, in order to show that the part
which he and other Great Western shareholders had
taken and were taking was justifiable, when he was
desired by
The CHAIRMAN to keep to the question absolutely
before the meeting.
Mr. ROY maintained that it was the question.
The CHAIRMAN insisted, amidst considerable cheer-
ing, that Mr. Roy's remarks had no force or applica-
tion in regard to the present position of the company.
Mr. ROY then contended that the second agreement
with the Great Western was still binding with the
Birkenhead Company.
After some further discussion,
The CHAIRMAN put the amendment, for which,
however, only Messrs. Knox, Roy, and a third share-
holder held up their hands. The original motion
was then put, and carried by a large majority,
together with the following :—" That the directors

liamentth the
