TAXES ON KNOWLEDGE.
The followioK letter bas been addressed by Mr
Joseph Hume, M.P., to Mr. C. D. Collett
.f Burnley Hall, 10th Oct., 1852.

—Your letter of the 7th instant only
esterday, and I hasten to answer your
place, you are right in using your best
ecirffeciao‘e:crsDlhttsnie:dnattr.hoineSefirst Sire,—four
increase the number of associations for re-
moval of the taxes on knowledge, and I think the ques-
tion becomes daily more and more approved of by all
persons except the Whigs and Tories—both these
tpar-
ties oppose, as they consider Government and its profits
theirs alone; and that the spread of knowledge
their monopoly of power and profit!
" that attended
" When I look back to the deputation
and heard
Lord John Russell, of which you were
roenee'al of these
his declaration that he considered than , ;et,
after
the
taxes only as a question of revenue,
evidence a
that subject, refused to
evidence before the Committee
b'e on
which the scsotiation
do anything towards the
had
endangers
the power, T tenet protest
have in view, %hes he .
lISSOCIatiOII demeaning thin,.
altogether against
the
assistance, now that he is out
selves to ask Lord
!ti. jo
tnde anything to aid us in the
of power, andnA will now make professions, I dare say, but
ail
could Reformer
have
ave
struggle. --- wlthem hollow and valueless.
I should consider _
i• •attß; and, after the speech on my
both civil and re Igi 1850, and his
for reform in do-nothing policy
motion
aide when aa
aftervi
__,
Reformers together, and have kept the Tories
kept the. .
I would not
of owe pay him the compliment that
.. I consider LordheJohcnoulads
hnaovtesinaccetreed
man
, propose. I wish I could look on his speech at Perth
Is benest and sincere—which I do not; and I therefore
object to the association demeaning itself by the course
you propose. We shall certainly succeed—but it will be
against both the Whigs and Tories; and I would hold
both parties cheap in regard to their assistance.
" All the Whigs deprecate in words the fettering of
the press; and yet, with power in their hands, they have
pertinaciously refused to knock off any one link of the
enslaving chain that prevents the spread of knowledge
and the education of the nation.
"I hope that Mr. Cobden and other members will
ageee with me, and that you will keep a high hand, and
set the two great oppressing parties at a distance.
"I remain, your obedient servant,
" To Mr. C. D. Collett." " JOSEPH HUMS*

Letters from St. Petersburgh of the 6th instant
state that the affairs of M. Podsossoff. who lately suspended,
had been arranged. He was to pay 10 per cent. in cash, and
the remainder in full by yearly instalments of 15 per cent. out
of the revenue of the gold mines in which he
is engaged. His
total debts had been ascertained to arnoimt to
.422,5u01. The
rate of exchange at St. Petersburgh still continues unfavour-
able for England, in consequence of the heavy shipments of
produce.
A COMPULSORY VorAGE.---A spanish fisherman
named Sonless, left Barcelona Vila e 18th ult., in a boat, with
the intention of proceeding to l'%Teuva, a distance of a
few miles. As he proposed to return in the evening, he only
took with him A bottle of rum, some wine, and a loaf. But
the violence of the wind and waves carried him out to ma,
and, having been buffeted about for twelve days, hs awls ed
1 on the 30th is the pat of Algiera.
