THE AIt.MY.

The following order from the Horse Guards,
addressed to the Cavalry and Royal Artillery, has

been issued by command of the Duke of Cam-

bridge :
"To facilitate still further the mounting of
officers of the Royal Artillery and Cavalry, his

Royal Highness the General Commanding-in-Chief,
with the concurrence of the Secretary of State for

War, is pleased to permit officers to select horses
from the ranks, under the following regulations,
which, however, do not abrogate those laid down
in the circular memorandum dated the 24th of De-

cember, 1860, No. 99 : —l. An officer under the

rank of field officer may select any horse, not pre

viously told off for anon-commissioned officer, on
the payment of £5O to the paymaster. 2. The
paymaster will credit the Government with the
troop price only, the difference be:ng applied,
through the regimental dealer, to the purchase of
remount horses of a rs upta kw Odes, au that the officers
may have increased opportunity of selecting suit-
able chargers. 3. No horse so selected shall be
sold by private contract, or othcrvvico disposed of
by the officer within five years from the Limo of
selection, but after the expiration of that period
such horse may become his property without re-
striction. 4. Should the officer wish to part with
the horse before ho has had it five years, he must
place it at the disposal of his commanding officer,
who will, if it be passed sound and effi-

cient as a trooper or gun horse, and provided
its age does not exceed six years, take it back
into the ranks at troop price. If, however, though
sound, it bo over six years old, the officer will re-
ceive £5 less than troop price for every year exceed-
ing that age. 5. Should the horse not be sound,
it may be cast, and sold with other cast horses, the
officer receiving the proceeds of sale. 6. In either
of the cases stated in paragraphs 4 and 5 the officer
may, with the consent of his commanding officer,
purchase another horse from the ranks for £5O. By
these means, and without any loss to the public, it
is expected that dealers will be enabled to buy
troopers likely to be selected by officers, who will
thus have the opportunity of securing good horses
at very reasonable prices."
Lieut. Skinner, of the 38th Regiment, is under

orders to join his corps in India, and Capt. Ponder,
of the sth Fusileers, is also about to leave Colches-
ter for Portsmouth. A party of officers, sergeants,

and privates of each battalion will leave Colchester
Camp for Hythe during the present month for the
purpose of receiving musketry instruction.
On Tuesday Major-Gen. Stransham, Inspector-
General of the Royal Marines, accompanied by Capt.
Travers, his Aide-de-Camp, arrived at Chatham for
the purpose of making an inspection of the Chat-
ham Division of Royal Marines, which is now un-
usually strong, and satisfying himself of the progress
made by the officers and men of the division in the
new drill. On his arrival, the Inspector-General
directed the battalion to be marched to the Great
Lines, where, under the command of Col. Fraser,
Second. Commandant, the companies were put
through an extended course of battalion drill, many of
the movements being somewhat intricate. During
the progress of the inspection Major-General Stran-
sham called several of the captains and subalterns
from the companies, and directed them individually
to take the command of the battalion, during which
he noted the efficiency, or otherwise, with which
they manoeuvred the division, two of the subalterns
selected being candidates for the post of adjutant.
In the afternoon the battalion was again marched
to the lines, when other officers besides those se-
lected in the morning were taken from the compa-
nies by Major-General Stransham, and these in
succession took the command of the division. The
Inspector-General returned to the Admiralty in the
evening, and will, it is understood, Spay similar
visits of inspection to the other divisions of Royal
Marines, the chief object the Lords of the Admi-
ralty have in view in the appointment of an

"It is never too late to mend," says Mr. Hubbard.
Use, he says, is not yet second nature with the in-
come tax. It is not yet the leopard which cannot
change its spots, or the Ethiopian who cannot bleach
his skin. It is quite cheering to find gentlemen of
this hopeful, jovial temperament, still treating the
income tax as a sapling. Mr. Hubbard would take
it up, transplant it, lop it and top it, make it quite
another tree, and then expect to live 50 years more
to see what it will grow into. None of our youngsters ,
have such enterprise and courage. Many men no
longer young hardly remember the time when there
was not an income tax, and they associate it with
the assessed taxes, with poor rates and way rates.
They will never get up heart to resist or modify a
tax which seems inseparable from this our civilised
state, which affords the most splendid demonstra-
tion of England's wealth and probity, and is the
brightest ingot in the Chancellor of the Exchequer's
coffer. Consult them, and they will hardly wish to
amend the tax at the risk of hurting its efficiency.
With them it is the palladium of England's finance. It
is the arm that strikes and heals, that fills merchant-
men with corn and coats men-of-war with iron ;
that opens ports or blockades them ; that makes all
the world accessible except our own shores, and
enables the Chancellor of the Exchequer to declare
a surplus whenever he pleases, to laugh at a thou-
sand scruples, to play with huge balances, to sleep
on the eye of a budget, and make a pleasant philo-
sophy do the duty of hard facts. The spectacle is
so seductive that at this moment the Federal Ame-
ricans are building a fleet of Monitors on the faith
of the Income Tax. They have made out to their
own satisfaction that, while they are about the same
in number as ourselves, they are considerably richer,
and the product of their Income Tax will be so much
the greater. As yet they see only the bright side
of the tax. Here it is regarded with more respect
than love. Mr. Hubbard has not even that respect
for it which we feel for an old institution, He
keeps up his protest against its rough and ready
principles of assessment, as the Pole does against
the Russian.
But what is to be done ? This cherished hope of
amendment is like the old faculty that we once
felt conscious of and once wished to exercise, but
have now lost, not-only in power, but even in will.
You once had an inkling of a higher philosophy, of
some happier frame ; and you once felt that nothing
was required to the enjoyment of the blissful
dream but a strong exercise of will. But dream
and will have now gone together, and you cannot
say that you care much about it. Schedule Dis a
sad burden and a frightful anomaly ; so Peel
himself, so Gladstone, so every one once said ;
but we have grown into it, as we have grown
into many things, The slim youth of twenty thinks
life must be intolerable with a weight of seventeen
stone, and a figure such as the justice carried " with
fat capon lined." Think of carrying before you
always, as a matter of course, a protuberance as
heavy and as prominent as a well-loaded dinner
tray. Wait a few years, and you will be as proud
of it as Falstaff was in a crowd of striplings.
You will no longer wish to be a whipping-post.
So some of us are becoming proud of the corpulent
injustice of Schedule D. No doubt Mr. Gladstone
in his imagination revels in licensed brigandage.
He roves in the spirit over ideal Garganos and St.
Angelos in a conical hat and feather, a jacket, a
girdle mounted with pistols, and a wide-muzzled
carbine, enjoying the terrors of anxious merchants,
sleek priests, and all the timid cattle that creep
from town to town. He won't throw back a doit.
'They must pay for the costs of their own suits, if
they take the law, and pay him teeth-money over
all. " Lie on your face and hold your tongue," is
all the word of grace he has for them. If they
wont't say how much they have, he will soon find
it, and then it will be the worse for them. Yet
this is the Nero who once wept as he signed a death
warrant. It is the old Norman spirit_ still strong

in this country. The poor Saxon Pleads the preca-
riousness of his tenure, the instability of fortune,
the vicissitudes of trade, the wear and tear of body
and soul, and the tenderness due to his little hand
or head craft. Is not the blood leaving his veins,
and the tide and blood leaving the whole system ?
Spare him awhile that he may husband what is
loft for himself and those he loves. The Norman
listens to no such plea. He has R crrpg+ Q+.+. ht

NATIONAL DEBT OF 2HE NEW lON Gs-

DOM OF ITALY.

A statement of the national debt and general
finances of the new kingdom of Italy at the com-
mencement of the present year, by Mr. Sackville
West, Secretary of Legation at Turin, has just been
published. In the early part of the first Session of
the Italian Parliament of 1861 a law was passed
providing. for the unification of the public debts of
the different provinces, which were henceforth to
beinscribed in a great book, representing the
liabilities of the entire country. At the same time
the principle was abandoned of providing for a
gradual extinction by means of a sinking fund, the
Minister having rightly declared it to be a costly
fiction, a surplus revenue being the only means of
effecting any such object. The debts thrown upon
the State by the different Acts of union are of six
classes—namely, 1. those of Piedmont ; 2. Lom-
bardy ; 3. the /Emilia ; 4. Modena ; 5. Tuscany ;
and 6. Naples and Sicily. The Piedmontese debt
commenced in 1817, in consequence of indemnities
to be paid to France after the restoration of the
House of Savoy. For 11 years, during the reigns
of Victor Emmanuel I. and Carlo Felice, there does
not appear to have been any sensible augmentation
of the amount, and the period of loans commenced
only with the accession of Charles Albert, in 1834.
By the year 1847, just before the French Revolu-
tion and the insurrection at Milan, the total had
reached £5,400,000. In the three years 1849.50-
51, six loans were contracted, representing
£14,360,000. In 1856 there was another increase
of £5,200,000, and in 1859 another of £2,600,000.
Besides this £4,000,000 was paid to France by
the Treaty of Zurich on account of the portion
of the Austrian debt of 1854 and £2,400,000
indemnity for war expenses. There were also
other augmentations, and in this manner on the
Ist of January, 1860, the debt had reached an
aggregate of £41,800,000, and subsequently a
loan of £6,000,000, represented by £7,450,000 capi-
tal, has been added. On the other hand, there was
a reduction of £3,600,000 by the assumption of that
amount by France on the cession of Savoy and Nice.
The actual debt was thus brought to £46,400,000,
involving an annual charge for interest of
£2,300,000. The debt of Lombardy, which had
been increased by the forced loan of £4,000,d000
made by Radetzky in 1848, seems to have stood at
the time of the Treaty of Villafranca at £7,400,000,
of which £1,600,000, on account of the old
,Monte di
Milano, has since been assigned to Austria. The debt
of the provinces of the tErnilla (Parma, Modena,
and Romagna)
was £1,680,000. That of Tuscany
amounted to £6,360,000, including £2,280,000 con-
tracted after the fall of the lute dynasty. Lastly
comes the debt of Naples and Sicily. During the
reign of the Bourbon dynasty scarcely any financial
statement of the public debt was given, and the
absence of such documents, and the mystery which
always enveloped all the Government transactions
of a financial nature, have rendered it extremely
difficult to obtain any precise information on the
subject. At the restoration of the House of Bour-
bon there was, a debt of £5,040,000 ; the expenses
of that restoration aro calculated to have been
£3,600,000, and subsequently the continued occupa-
tion of the country by the Austrian army involved
a heavy burden. The events of 1848 and the sup-
pression of the Sicilian revolt caused additions of
more than £6,000,000, and the total liabilities at
length reached £22,000,000. The public debt of the
new kingdom of Italy is therefore as follows :

Lombardy 5,800,000 Sicil; .

A further contribution to our knowledge of the
topography of the northern portion of this continent
has been made by the publication of Mr. Lands-
borough's journal. Starting from the left bank of
the Albert river, he took a south-westerly direction
and penetrated into the interior as far as 20 deg.
14 min. 5 sec. south latitude, in longitude 138 deg.
17 min., thus reaching a point about 250 miles
south-east of Stuart's furthest, on the 27th August,
1860. Finding no trace of the Burke and Wills
expedition, and being apprehensive of a collision
with some natives, 100 in number, who were en-
camped close to the little party, Mr. Landsborough
retraced his steps, by a somewhat different route,
to the depot on the Albert river, where he obtained
intelligence of Walker's party having discovered
traces of Burke and his companions on the Flinders
River. The country traversed during the outward
journey consisted for the first few days of thinly-
wooded and well-grassed plains, which were suffer-
ing at that period of the year (the height of summer)
from want of rain. The explorers followed the
course of the Gregory River for some distance, and
discovered numerous creeks and streams flowing
into it, and one watercourse from the south having
a wider channel, though a shallower current, than
the Gregory. Most of the creeks subsequently
crossed appeared to be destitute of water at that sea-
son, and showed traces of being subjected to floods
during the winter months. In the excursions under-
taken in search of water, Mr. Landsborougb, after
crossing ionic basaltic ridges overrun with desert
grass, came upon fine plateaux, lightly timbered
and covered with rich grasses, to which he gave the
name of the Barkly Tableland. Indeed, the fre-
quency with which he mentions the occurrence of
those fortile e1,,,n4;,,,,0 pnnyt-sT s n ',cry faN euiable
impression both of the climate and the natural capa-
bilities of the country. No less than four conside-
rable watercourses flowing into the Gregory River
from the south were discovered and named by Mr.
Landsborough, and most of the country traversed is
described as well adapted for pastoral purposes at
certain seasons of the year. And, inasmuch as the
rainfall on the north-eastern coast occurs at a period
when the country skirting the southern portion of
the Gulf of Carpentaria appears to be suffering
from drought, it is possible that a system of migra-
tory settlement may hereafter be adopted, with ad-
vantage to the flocks and herds which may even-
tually occupy both regions. A belt of tableland
appears to stretch from east to west, between the
18th and 19th parallels of south latitude, and the
mountain barrier which separates it from the
plains on the seaboard is the source of most of
the affluents of the Nicholson, the Albert, the
Leichardt, the Flinders, and other rivers flowing
into the Gulf. Burke and Wills crossed this table-
land, and were much struck with the beauty of
its aspect and richness of its vegetation, the ame-
nity of the climate, and the indications it presented
of the existence of mineral wealth. Although
within the tropics, its natural elevation is suffi-
ciently great to insure a mild temperature, and as
the formation of the country, consisting of a num-
ber of basins lying in among a chain if hills,
would render the construction of reservoirs com-
paratively easy, while the annual rainfall must be
very great, this region holds out the promise of
becoming colonised by that wave of population
which is gradually creeping np the eastern side of
Australia, and wili naturally trend round to After
the gulf, when it reaches the peninsula.returning to the depot on the Albe

and his party purposed following up

that which will hereafter be received from Mr.
Walker, embracing the record of his journey over.
land, will enable our hydrographere to map out
most of the country lying immediately to the north
of the 20th parallel of south latitude, and between
the 135th and 145th degrees of east longitude. In
fact, if we bisect the continent at the lino which
Mr. Stuart has drawn across it, and trace upon
the eastern half the routes of Burke and Wills,
Walker and Landsborough, Howitt and Main-
lay, and add to these the discoveries which are
being daily made by private enterprise—by
expeditions fitted out by persons on the look
out for new pastoral country—we shall find few
blank spaces of any magnitude in that portion of the
map, and may anticipate that the time is not far
distant when these will altogether disappear. One
gratifying circumstance connected with these sub-
sidiary expeditions is that they have been unat-
tended with any serious casualty on land. Mr.
Landsborough only lost two horses, which were
drowned in crossing a river, and he seems to have
acted with commendable caution in not pushing his
exploration forward beyond a point at which his
retreat was secure, and the cheerful alacrity with
which he resumed his arduous labours the moment
his party had been strengthened and provisioned
for the exploit proves that his heart *es in the work.
We trust that both he and Mr. Walker will be enabled
to add materially to the information we already
possess with respect to the country traversed by the
Burke and \\rills expedition, and will supply many
interesting details unavoidably overlooked or unre-
corded by the brave men who have perished.--

NEW YORK, MAY 2, EVENING.
The Federal Commander Farragut formally de-
manded of the Mayor of New Orleans an unquali-
fied surrender of the city on the 26th ult. He like-
wise demanded that the Federal flag should be
hoisted on all public buildings and all Confederate
flags removed. He requested the Mayor to use his
authority to quell any disturbance, and concluded
by saying, "I shall severely punish any persons
committing such outrages as were witnessed yester-
day, by armed men firing upon helpless women and
children for giving expression to their pleasure at
witnessing the old flag."
The Mayor replied that for the sake of the
women and children General Lovell evacuated the
city, leaving the administration of affairs to the civil
authorities. "To surrender an undefended city,"
he continued, " would be An unmeaning ceremony.
The city is yours by power :If brutal force, not by
the choice or consent of the inhabitants. It is for
you to determine the fate that awaits us here.
There is no man in our midst whose hand or head
would not be paralysed at hoisting a flag not of
our own adoption. You may trust in the honour
of the inhabitants, though you might not count on
their submission to unmerited wrong. Your occu-
pancy of the city does not transfer the allegiance
of the inhabitants from the Government of their
choice to one which they have deliberately repudi-
ated. They yield the obenience which the con-
queror is entitled to extract from the conquered."

A Cairo despatch says that the news from Pitts-

telegraphic transmission is forbidden. Nothing is
known here of the nature of the news.
The Washington correspondent of the New Fork
Herald affirms that a consultation had taken place
at Washington between the Federal Cabinet and
the foreign diplomatic corps. The consultation re-
ferred to the French Minister's visit to Richmond,
and the question of an armistice was discussed. It
was believed that the French Minister since the
occupation of New Orleans had concluded that the
time had arrived when, under the instructions of
the Emperor, he might step forward as mediator.
Also that in consideration of the monopoly of com-
mercial advantages and aid of some kind from the
Southern States in regard to Mexico the Emperor
Napoleon has agreed to use his influence with the
Federal Government to end the war upon terms
securing to the Southern States an independent
nationality, and that if the Federal Government did
not accept his mediation the Emperor would him-
self acknowledge the Southern Confederacy.

BIRTHS, DBATBS, AND MARRIAGES

IN ENGLAND.

The annual report for the year 1860 states that
the aggregate number of names enrolled in the re-
gister books of England and Wales in that year
was not equal to the number in 1859 ; but the de-
crease is not a subject of regret, for it arose chiefly
from the fact that the mortality was comparatively
low in 1860. The deaths were 18,000 less than
they had been in the previous year ; the births were
nearly 5,000 less; but the marriages were more
numerous than they had been either then or at any
former time. The men and women married in the
year were 340,312,

however,
does not consist to its full extent of different per-
sons; for it unfortunately happened to a certain
proportion of them, that they were implicated in
two out of three events. To many, the first dawn
of life abruptly descended into night. To some the
year of marriage was the year of death.
The facts to which the present report relates be-
long to the year which preceded that of the census.
When the population was enumerated on April 8,
1861, it was found to be 20,066,224 ; and that its
rate of increase in the last decennium had been 12
per cent. Accepting these results, in conjunction
with another fact which the last four censuses have
revealed, viz., that the rate of increase has constantly
descended during the last 40 years, it is estimated
that the population of England in the middle of the
year 1860 was 19,902 918.

are familiar to most readers, to give a vivid impres-
sion of the vitality of the English people, to goo
