SERIOUS CHARGE AGAINST A FARMER.

John Castledine, 32, a respectable-looking man, was
indicted for stealing, at Long Ditton, two cows, the pro-
perty of William White, a farmer.

Mr. Thompson prosecuted, and Mr. Lilley, instructed
by Mr. Neale, defended the prisoner, who formerly was
an extensive farmer near Kingston.

The prosecutor said he resided at Court Farm, Long
Ditto; and on the morning of the 23d of October last
he saw 18 cows safe on his farm. He went to London
on business, and on his return on the 25th he heard that
two of his cows had been stolen, and on the 28th they
were found, and brought home by a constable. The pri-
soner formerly resided on an adjoining farm. He valued
the cows at 181,

Joseph Twilley, a dealer in cows, residing at Mitcham,
said on the morning of the 24th of October the prisoner
came to him and offered to sell two cows to him, and
told him they were in the Swan Inn yard. He asked
131. for them, and witness offered him 11/., and on the
following morning witness paid him the money and took
the cows away. The prisoner gave him a receipt for
the money, signed "John Hall." He told bim that h a
had chopped a horse away for them. Witness had pro-
viol sly seen the prisoner at Kingston market. On the
27th of October the policemen came to his yard and
took the cows away, stating that they had been stolen;
and on the 13th of November, as he was coming to
t
Kingston market, he met the prisoner at the Robro
Hood, when witness took him to the prosecutor, whe
was given into custody.

Tae comparison of the two years 1851 and 1852
gives a result of an equally agreeable character.
In Customs, for the reason already referred to in
the ,comparison of the quarters, there is a decrease
of (55,687/., which, in a branch of the revenue
yielding last year 18,695,3821., is a very trifling
mat ter. The Excise of the year shows an
increase of 263,311/. ; and the Stamps an in-
crease of 356,712/. The Taxes are largely
affe.oted by the substitution of the House for
the. Window Tax, and the result is a decrease
of 186,1991. The Property Tax yielded 204,7141.
plore in 1852 than in 1851, though we are
.not about to insist on that increase as a proof
of contemporaneous prosperity. For the other
items it is sufficient to refer to the table but the
result is, that the ordinary revenue of the year just
ended exceeded that of the previous year by
750,5721., and when extraordinary items are in-
chided, the increase becomes 978,9261., in which it
is impossible not to recognise a great improvement
on the condition of the people. Nor can it be for-
gotten that, when at the close of the year 1851,
we had to record a thriving revenue for the Cus-
toms and the Excise, it was obvious to reply—and
it was, indeed, replied—that the Great Exhibition
had much to do with both these items, having
induced a large consumption of both exciseable
and dutiable articles, and having been the direct
means of an extensive foreign importation. Not-
withstanding what was then supposed to be a forced
and preternatural state of the revenue, it now ap-
pears that the year 1852 has yielded very nearly as
much as the previous year under the head of Cus-
toms, and a quarter of a million more in the item
of Excise.
We must say that the natural inference from
such a statement is, that national burdens may
still be extensively though gradually reduced, and
even, additional expenditure undertaken for the
defence of the country, without the disagreeable
Mocess of laying on any new tax, or increasing
'the area or intensity of an old one. At all events,
that is the lesson the people will draw from this
statement, and it would be scarcely possible to
drive them out of it. Taxation is not a theory,
but a fact, and, though the people may like radical
reform in some things, they will not easily endure
a radical reform of the taxation which begins by
aggravating the load now clogging the industry
and talent of some important classes. Henceforth,
unless matters change much for the worse, "impo-
sition" of taxes will be almost unknown, and reduc-
tion, more or less, be the only thing spoken of.
After the fate of the. last Budget, he must be a bold
man who will prepare another of an equally original
character. As evidence of the national prosperity,
the statement before us comes with peculiar felicity
just at this moment, when a score of constituencies

ties of 1815,- completely shelter its responsibility,
whatever may occur. The immense majority in
France wish only for order, repose, employment,
prosperity, and a certain quantity—or at least a
certain appearance—of liberty, and willingly sup-
port any Government, which will secure, if only
for a day, the enjoyment of these blessings. We
have seen, since 1848, the personification of this
policy sought for in the most opposite camps. La-
martine, Cavaignac, and Changarnier, each repre-
sented it in his day ; the nephew of the Emperor
represents it in the highest degree, and derives
from it the principal strength of his Government.
When the journals to which we allude do not, by
their ridiculous dithyrambics, bring us back to the
fine days of 1804, let them not fear to enter with
us into the realities of the state of affairs, and all
these reports of war will soon fall to the ground."
The Duke de Padoue has been installed as
Governor of the Invalides by General Sauboul,
the Commandant, who represented Prince Jerome,
in consequence of his being confined to his apart-
ments by illness. After the ceremony of installa-
tion, the Duke reviewed the invalides, and then at-
tended a Te Deum in the chapel. When the religious
service was over he paid a visit to Prince Jerome.
General Sauboul had previously published an
order of the day in the name of his Imperial
Highness, announcing the change, and congratu-
lating the invalides on the appointment of so brave
and experienced an officer as his successor.
Accounts have been received of the Labrador
steam-frigate having quitted Messina for Syra,
with Abd-el-Kader and his suite on board.

" Marshal Haynau has been here for some time. Se-
veral aristocratic families, known for their attachment to
the Austrian Government, have received him with the ut-
most distinction, and invited him to entertainments. and
banquets. The Orsini family, in particular, distinguished
itself by its demonstrations, and caused him to be admitted
on Sunday last to a sitting of the Philharmonic Society,
which, notwithstanding his presence, was most brilliant
and gay. But this is not all. The arts, of which Tus-
cany is the centre, also wished to honour in a becoming
manner such a guest, and the pencil of Bezzuoll, and
the graver of Dupre are to portray his effigy. The
first of these artists demanded 500 scudi for the task,
be painted at full length, surrounded with all the acces-
sories commemorative of the part he acted in the events
of Hungary.
i Thus, while the Austrians themselves,
but ultimately accepted 300. The Marshal wishes to
the companions n arms of the Marshal endeavour to
avoid him, Italian families, Italian artists, offer him
their good offices, and celebrate him by works of their
genius. These are fortunately very rare exceptions,
and so repulsive that we cannot dwell upon them any
longer. The wife of Madiai is better. Her pardon,
however, has not not yet been granted."

are re-electing their Free-trade representatives with
almost entire unanimity. Never did an Adminis-
tration walk into office and run the gauntlet of a
new election with more entire success—not one
member having yet lost his seat. The prosperity
of this island under free trade is such as to compel
the assent of those who denied it as long as they
could, and even now persuade others to do so. The
times that are coming no man can tell. 'Undoubt-
edly there are elements of future difficulty and even
danger in our position ; but with all things becom-
ing more abundant, with the means of communica-
tion from any one part of the world to any other in-
creasing year by year, and, perhaps more than all,
with the metallic circulation, the base of all others,
becoming yearly augmented, we cannot refrain from
hoping, and even anticipating, the best for the con-
dition of the people, and for all the branches of
the Imperial revenue.

THE TELEGRAPH LINES OP THE WORLD UP TO 1853.—
The extent of telegraphic communication, completed and
in operation throughout the World, at the beginning of
the present year, may be estimated, as far as can be

this amount there were nearly 4,000 miles in Great
underground, with

LOVE IN THE SEVENTEETH CENTURY.—Men and
women whose life was ceaselessly occupied with ideas
and intrigues of love, were naturally always susceptible
of its influence ; and if, as Rochefoucauld observes,
"there are some people who would never have fallen in
love, if they had not heard love mentioned," many per-
sons, through hearing it talked of wherever they went,
fancied they had found it where it did not exist. Sur-
prised at these efforts of the imagination, some men en-
deavoured to explain them by causes of a most ridicu-
lous character. In order to prove that the seat of love
• is in the blood, Segrais relates a story of a Ger-
man gentleman, whose faithless mistress, desiring to get
rid of him, ran him twice through the body with a
sword. He did not die of his wounds, but, strange to
' say, when he had recovered, said Segrais, "He felt as
much indifference for the princess as if he had never
loved her, and he attributed this to the loss of blood."

The Moniteur says :—" The ratifications of the
commercial convention between France and Bel-
gium of the 9th ult. were exchanged on the 31st,
at Brussels. It is known that this convention
again places in vigour the former treaty." A
special supplement of the same journal announces
that the Russian Minister delivered to-day his
credentials to the Emperor.

The Ministers of the United States, Wurtem-
burg, Bavaria, Tuscany, Hanover, Baden, and
Saxony have received their credentials.
Letters from Frankfort of the 3d states that the
Diet has, through its President, informed M. de
Tallenay that it had recognized the French
Empire.
It is stated that the attention of the Department
of Police has been for some time particularly
directed to the Legitimist press—the Republican
and the purely Orleanist organs having nearly dis-
appeared—so far at least as the advocacy of their
peculiar doctrines is concerned.
The Austrian and Prussian ambassadors in Paris
have received their new letters of credence, and will
present them almost immediately. Those of
Russia were expected to arrive yesterday. The
recognition of the French Empire by the three
Powers is made without the slightest reserve or
conditions, and that full confidence is expressed by
them that the declarations in favour of peace, made
by the Emperor of the French at Bordeaux and
Saint Cloud, will be fully realised. Nearly the
same form of recognition has been adopted by the
three Powers, and Napoleon 111. is addressed as
mon frerc. In the letters of credence addressed to
Louis Philippe by the three great northern courts
he was merely addressed as Sire.
A decree in the Moniteur suppresses the several
superior commands instituted by the decree of Feb.
12, 1850, in the military divisions in France as
being no longer necessary, and directs the Com-
mander-in-Chief of the army of Lyons to hold at
the same time the command of the Bth military
territorial division: and the commander of the army
of Paris to hold that of the Ist military division.
Another decree appoints a Commission to verify the
service of the public Treasury during the year 1851,
the said Commission being composed of M. Stourm,
Councillor of State, President; MM. Chadenet and
Aignon de Monsigny, Masters of Requests ; MM.

LITERATURE.

CHRISTMAS BOOBS.

Love in the Moon ; a Poem, with Remarks on that
Luminary. By Patrick Scott, author of "
Taylor, Walton, and Maberly.

The author of " Lelio" has here given evidence
that his powers of fancy are of no mean order—,
they even extend to the verge of extravagance. As
a playful extravaganza, however, this elegant little
volume, with its cover of cerulean blue, illumined
by a golden moon, comes appropriately among the
Christmas books. The prefatory remarks contain
some interesting scientific particulars respecting the
actual condition of the moon as known to astrono-
mers, but the moon of the poem is of a somewhat
different nature. The scene of action is the hemi-
sphere not turned towards the earth, consequently
it is not within the power of Arago or Lord Rosse
to gainsay the suppositions of Mr. Scott. On that
distant lunar hemisphere we are to believe that
human beings exist, and hence this episode of
" Love in the Moon," seeing that, according to the
happy fancy of Mr. Scott, " Where there's Life,
there must be Love."
But we shall not introduce these lunatics to our
readers, furthermore than to say that their names
are Lunari, and Argentine, and that, unlike the in-
habitants of our world, their bodies are contained
within their souls ! Having said this it is needless
to repeat that the poem is purely an extravaganza,
and we are inclined to think that Mr. Scott might
have turned his powers of fancy to better purpose.

The Inn by the Sea-side. An Allegory.
Harriet Drury. Pickering.

By Anna

•
We have. on other occasions noticed some of
Miss Drury's excellent works—her beautiful tale
of Eastbury, and her most charming story of
" Friends and Fortune"—one of the most charming
books of its kind that we are acquainted with.
This Christmas, we have no story from her
pen ; but in its stead, however, she gives us an
allegory—a most felicitous example of that effective
mode of truth-telling. The " Vision of Mirza,"
and others of the kind, have been familiar to us all
from childhood. Of a kindred spirit is this truth-
ful description of that Inn by the Sea-side, in
which, travellers all, we make our passing abode,
entering either by the Gate of Thorns, the Gate of
Oak, the Flowery Porch, or the Princely Archway,
but all leaving it by the same dark portal. For-
getting that they were travellers bound on a far
journey, the visitors of this Inn too often forgot
that it was not their abiding place, and the sum-
mons of departure continually found them with
their travelling garments unprepared, and their
reckoning not paid.

The Picture Pleasure-Book. Addey.

As a Christmas-box, or New-Year's gift, for the
inhabitants of the nursery, we are satisfied that no
book or toy can surpass in attractions this most
attractive Pleasure-book. It has been making its
appearance with the magazines for some months
past in folio numbers, containing some half dozen
pages of pictures, for the moderate price of six-
pence. One volume is now complete, and that
volume, or even one of the monthly numbers, will
afford immeasurable delight to little folks. Children
so love " a story and " a picture ;" and the beauty
of this work is, that its pictures tell their own
stories, and, moreover, they are for the most part
reprints from good drawings—a most important
matter, seeing that the unformed taste of children
should be early accustomed to good designs. These
pictures, as works of art, are excellent, and their
selection will, we are confident, give pleasure to
those for whom they are provided. Sketches of
various animals, and representations of little do-
mestic scenes and adventures are the chief subjects,
and sometimes a whole nursery tale is narrated in
successive pictures. Some of these are admirable.

Arbell : A Tale for Young People. By Jane
Winnard Hooper, author of the " Recollections
of Mrs. Anderson's School." Addey, Old Bond-
street.

This is a most desirable book for young people,
and it is likely to prove serviceable to them, as
it represents, in life-like manner, what would
be disregarded in a series of reflections. The good
character of the little heroine is made the subject
of deserved eulogium, and it is especially pointed
out that she could never by her own efforts have
become what she was. After years of careful
training, Miss Travers was enabled to rejoice in
the results of the labour of love in which she had
been sedulously engaged. Arbell was an orphan,
thrown on her bounty, the child of an old friend.
Neglected by all her rich relatives, deserted by her
friends, the poor mother, as a last resource, sought
out her old playmate Miss Travers, and her dying
prayer was answered. Her daughter was warmly
welcomed to her new home. In that peaceful re-
treat she passed a happy childhood. Georgy Cas-
tellan, the great friend of our heroine, was a very
pleasing : her disposition contrasted well with
that of Lbell. She was perfectly natural—a merry,
thoughtless girl, yet notwithstanding evincing some
times great powers of boservation and judgment.
The most interesting part of the story is when the
time of trial comes, when Arbell is introduced to
her grandfather, who, struck by her appearance,
offers to make her his heiress. However, his kind-
ness does not extend to the true friend who had
guarded so well the early years of his grand-
daughter. In the following scene Arbell declares
her intentions :—" Come here, I have something
to say to you, and I must say it quickly, for I am
in a hurry," said her grandfather. " You are my
grand-daughter, and I intend to make you my
heiress, and will take you home to live with me
immediately. You understand that. Now, then,
I should like to pay back to this schoolmistress,
who has taken care of you since your infancy, all
the money which she has spent on your account.
I should like her to be paid double the usual
price for pupils. Sit down, and calculate how
much that will be." Arbell felt the blood mount
into her cheeks. She was indignant and deeply
pained. " What is the matter ?" asked her grand-
father. " Can you not calculate a simple sum of
that kind, my dear ?" " No, Sir," she replied,
losing all fear in the strength of her indignation,
and then finding the words come easily enough,
so that she was astonished afterwards • "
cannot calculate the sum of what I owe to the
lady who has been mother, father, and all relations
to me. You can't do it. No one can do it ; and
if you could calculate it, I should deserve never to
have a friend any more, if I insulted her by offer-
ing to pay it in money. You cannot pay for her
love and kindness to me, but I will pay her in gra-
titude. I would rather go back to her, and work
for her when she is old, than I would be your
heiress, and send her the money she has willingly
spent for me since I was taken in charity into her
house." The astonishment of General Dudley at
this sch from a little, gentle, loving girl, can
scarcelye described. After looking at her for a
few moments, he burst into an ungovernable rage.

Reveries of a Bachelor; or, a Book of the Heart.
By Ik. Marvel. Bogue.
Whether or not the first title of this book be cor-
rect we cannot say; but, assuredly, the second is
rightly bestowed. It is a book of the heart, full
to overflowing with genial sympathy and home-
affection. The playful fancy of the style only en-
hances the deep feeling that lies beneath. The
bachelor, by his lonely fireside, indulges in solemn
reveries, and allegories, and castle-building. First
musing over a wood-fire, the " smoke" suggests a
vision of " doubt," the succeeding " blaze" inspires
" cheer," and then follows " ashes" and " desola-
tion;" the visionary home is despoiled of its trea-
sures, the ideal wife and children are in the grave;
andsonaturally, so pathetically is the loss imagined,
that we canreadily understand him rousing from his
dream, thanking God the sad picture is not a reality.
Yet more charming is the comparison of the two
hearts symbolised by the sparkling, deceptive sea-
coal, and the steadfast glowing Anthracite, and yet
more delightful is
