A Bill embracing the proposed objects of the present Company was
before the last Parliament, when, after passing the Standing Orders
and the first and second reading, it was submitted to the Select
Committee on the Metropolis Water Supply. The Government and
the other Bills occupied the attention of the Committee till the latter
end of May, when this Bill was called on, and the evidence gone
into ; but from the improbability of being able to pass the Bill through
the lioase of Lords in that Parliament, and in order to avoid large
and useless expenditure, by the advice of Counsel, it was withdrawn,
upon the understanding that the same measure would be proceeded
with in the next Parliament.

The Metropolis Water Bill passed last Session removes all uncer-
tsh.ty as to the extent of interference by the Legislature with regard
to Water Companies, thereby enabling the Promoters of this Under.
taking to frame their measures to meet all the requirements of the
New Act, and likewise to offer to the capitalist a perfectly secure
means of investment.
The Water of the River Wandle has long been celebrated for its
great purity, and its recent analysis by eminent chemists, fully con-
firm the high character given to it by the late Mr. Telford and Dr.
Bostock, in their examination by the Government Commissioners on
Water Supply.
Every Householder South of the Thames paying Water Rates, is
aware of the high charge for the present inferior and insufficient
supply. The proposed rates of this Company will be upon a much
lower scale. It will thus be evident that upon the point of economy
alone, they must command the preference of consumers; but when
the purity of the water is considered, and that the supply will be
censtsnt and unlimited, all competition will necessarily be su-
perseded.
kW: ough inordinate profits are not contemplated by this Com-
pany, yet it is firmly believed, looking at the vast extent of the
Surrey District, and the daily increase of buildings there, that the
present undertaking will afford an immediate, sound, and steady
investment for capital, with every prospect that the maximum di-
vidend, now allowe4 by the Legislature, namely, 101 per cent.. will
be speedily attained ; proposals having already been made by large
consumers, to take several millions of gallons daily.
After payment of the Deposit, no call will be made until an Act
be obtained, in which it will be provided that no Call shall exceed
1/. per Share, or be made at more frequent intervals than three
months.
Applications for Shares to be made to the Brokers; or to the
Secretary, at the Offices of the Company, No. 28, Cornhill, where
the plans and models of Mr. Thompson's SUBTERRANEOLTS RESER-
vonts may be seen, and detailed information obtained.

FREE PORTS.—The seven principal ports of the Canary
ISlando were opened as free porta on the 10th of October.

(From the Tintes.);,
After employing so many years of his life in at-
tacking the existing system of taxation, the Chan-
cellor of the Excheqner will be fully prepared to
find his own scheme not universOy acceptable.
Indeed, the best scheme in the world would come
with ill grace from a Jnanso long identified with an
unpopular policy. But a budget is always safe to be
attacked—for, first, nobody likes paying taxes ;
then everybody has his hobbies on the subject; and
then there will always be, as there has been for the
last seven years, and as there is now, a strong party
resolved to upset the financier, if possible by fair
means, if not, anyhow. These difficulties reach
their climax when the said financier has attempted
to do a great deal with a comparailively small sur-
plus, and has gone so far as to pillsose an actual
re-adjustment of our burdens. • In that case, the
most dispassionate people begin to *quire how they
a
are affected, and to strike balaie between the
taxes to be laid on and those to be remitted Mr.
Disraeli's-own friends will think themselves very
hardly used if the first result of their political suc-
cess is that they have to pay more taxes ; and his
aoptp
hiosnehnatnsdws.illßbye
csotillnselnestsodfiaspli:)fisenad tociearscc,ept a loss
so fair as an inhabited house d.utyl ; but Rat:lst
is considered that, under the proposed alteration, a
101. householder would have to pay 15s. as inha-
bited house-duty, and a 151. householder 11. 2s. 6d.,
it is easy to anticipate the op e to be encoun
tered. This cuss, too, besid, •• • o Weal power;
has a "Power of another, and not less serious sort—
a power of nonpayment. Everybody knows how
difficult it is to collect rates from small house-
holders. They are always in arrear—perpetually
increasing beyond the hope of recovery. Law, par-
ticularly English law, avails but little where the
stake is small. There is a proverb which tells us
the utmost we may hope for when we take the law
of a poor man. It is too vulgar for quotation, but
the meaning is that we shall get what we would
rather be without. This is the practical case of the
10/. householder in the question of finance, and,
even if we try to evade the difficulty by allowing
the landlord to commute for the taxes of histenants,
as he already can for the rates, we only bring a new
enemy into the field. But the difficulty is increased
by the simultaneous extension of the income-tax to
property at 501. a year and income at a 1001. In
a treatise on taxation we certainly should expect to
find two suchpropositions advocated together ; but in
practice we should wish for, at least, a good interval.
Abstractedly, no reason can be given why a man
with an estate in land worth 1,5001., or with 50/. a
year in the Three per Cents., or in. railway shares,
should not pay income-tax as well as the country
surgeon, or the curate, who just gets his 1501. a
year, and contributes to the existing income-tax ?
But, we repeat, justice is not always practicable in
taxation. It is a question of expediency, of possi-
bility, of the strength of classes—of their strength to
resist, as well as to bear—of their patience of their
honour, and other moral peculiarities. Will it be
possible to squeeze income out of merchants'
clerks and small tradesmen of 100/. a year ?
Hitherto we have admitted the justice of the pro-
posed extensions of taxes. As to another measure
of the Budget, there seems to be a very general
opinion, not of its injustice, but of its illegality.
The nation has long decided a tax to the fund-
holder, notwithstanding the clause in the act of
Parliament which seems to protect him ; but then
it taxes the funds in common with all other proper-
ties and incomes. It lays no special duty on them.
The Chancellor
.of the. Exchequer seems to give up
this very proper scruple when he extends the in-
come-tax, to Irish funds, but not to land in Ireland.
Surely he will see reason to set this right by includ-
ing the Irish landlords in his scheme. There are
proprietors receiving incomes of fabulous amount
from the soil of Ireland in well-paid rents, and with
very little trouble : why should they not be made
to pay as well as the poor creatures who are to be
mulcted for their 100/. or 501. a-year in this
country ? This anomaly strikes one all the more,
because it is found in a budget which aims at
rigorous justice, to the disregard of serious practi-
cal considerations. It's only as a just budget that
it can be expected to make its way ; but the Chan-
cellor of the Exchequer must come into court with
clean hands. He must deal justice all round, with-
out any exception.. -Let him taw -the-Irtstrtaißr
* owner, and then our small shopkeepers and clerks
may perhaps submit to be shorn with the rest of
the flock. What is more, they may be compelled
to submit, however little they may like it ; for the
removal of the Irish exemption -011 entitle the
Chancellor of the Exchequer to all the support
Parliament can give him for the purpose.

(From the Morning Herald.)

. , .
We have now had time to learn, in a variety of
ways, what is the public feeling with reference to
the Budget. And we can say, with the utmost
sincerity, that we should hold ourselves most guilty
if we could present to the Ministry and its friends
a false or flattering view of the popular feeling.
Desiring, therefore, neither to delud3 ourselves or
any one else, we have carefully Examined the
opinions which have been presented to us ; and we
report most faithfully the result of one day's
search to have been—a large nuniter of persons
greatly pleased with the Chancellor et the Exche-
quer's plan ;one
displeased with it is too favour-
able to the land, and unfavourable to the town
population ; and One lamenting that the Minister
had not repealed the whole of the raalt tax, aug-
menting the income-tax to supply the deficiency.
Unless, therefore, we have happened to fall in
with thirty or forty persons in the course of ten
hours who gave an erroneous impression' of the
public opinion, we hold that the question is decided.
4, The first day's poll," as far as we can Learn the
result, is about 20 to 1 in favour of the Chancellor'.
of the Exchequer. And we should arrive at the
same conclusion from examining the various news-
papers. The daily journals of Saturday, even those
which are most opposed to Mr. Disraeli, are com-
pelled, apparently, to admit the various merits of
his scheme. The Daily News and Morning Adver-
tiser describe the plan to be of the boldest charac-
ter. The Morning Chronicle, the most inimical of
all to Mr. Disraeli personally, is forced to be, for
the moment, silent. As for the Times, it is in ex-
tasies with the whole scheme. Unless, therefore,
some sudden light should break in upon the people,
or some revolution take place
in their opinions, the
budget of 1853 is already accepted. And, if ac-
cepted, it must be a source of strength and popu-
larity to the Government. For, observe the vari-
ous boons it confers on so may different classes.
1. The remission of lighthouse dues to the ship-
ping interest, a boon for which
two such Liberals
as Sir J. Duke and Mr. Clay felt bound to express
their instant gratitude.
2. Permission to the West Indian planters to
refine sugar in bond—a concession equal to a dif-
ferential duty of is. 6d per cwt. ,
3. The remission to the agriculturists of half the
duty on malt, and of the war duty on hops.
4. The concession to all trades and professions
of one-fourth of the present income tax paid by
them.
5. The concession to the farmers and poorer
clergy of a more just method of estimating their
income tax.
6. The concession, to all classes, of more than
one-half the duty on tea ; which Will reduce the
price of good tea, in three or four years, to 3s.
per lb .
Assuredly there has been no budget since the days
of " Prosperity Robinson," which has offered the
people any concessions like these. Sir Robert
Peel's tariff of 1842 was indeed a large measure
but what a price was exacted for it in a property
tax of five millions per annum ! Whereas all the
countervailing element in Mr. Disraeli's budget is
simply a raising the house tax 50 per cent., calcu-
lated to produce one million per annum. It seems,
therefore, to us, as it seemed on Friday night, that
this budget carries with it an assurance of success ;
and that success is calculated to root deeply in
popular opinion the whole system of the present
Administration.

(From the Morning Chronicle.)
Mr. Disraeli commenced his long financial expo-
sition with a declaration of his desire to dispose,
once for all, of every
claim to preference or compen-
sation which could be urged on behalf of the so-
called suffering interests. Hereafter, he said, we
shall be able to regard the community as a whole,
and to confine our attention to the purely econo-
mical reasons which ought to influence fiscal legis-
lation : but let the weights be at this point re-
adjusted, that we may all start fairly. It
is evident that the proposal to inaugurate
the establishment of an impartial policy, by the
concession of certain class privileges, tended to
reopen the whole controversy the termination of
which has been so repeatedly announced. The
fair start took place when the removal of monopo-
lies left capital and industry free to exert their own
energies. The abolition of those restrictions which
main is only a potion of time and opportunity
