REVENUE.

Mr. NIOFFATT wished to know from the Chancellor of
the Exchequer what article it was proposed to levy a duty upon
to make up for the deficiency which would be caused in the
revenue by the reduction and equalisation of the sugar duties ?
The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER was not
prepared to say what the article was on which the duty was in-
tended to be substituted. It would be exceedingly incon-
venient to say at present what that article was, and, consider-
ing the difficulties attending the subject, he thought the best
course would be to defer naming the article till next session.

OXFORD CIRCUIT.— Gloucester, Aug. 10.

Fifteen cases have been added to the list.

Sir Thomas Wilde commenced business this morning

Maule in the Crown Court at eleven, but before neither
Learned Judge has any case occurred which would justify
a report.

POLICE INTELLIGENCE.
MARLBOROUGH-STREET.

Thomas Brake, a footman in the service of a gentleman
residing at No. 44, Hertford-street, May-fair, and Thomas
Williams were brought before Mr. Maltby, charged with hav-
ing been found together by the police under the following
suspicious circumstances:—
Police-constable C 102 said he was going through his beat
that morning when be saw a man in the area of No. 32, Hert-
ford-street. He noticed a second person, who stood outside
of the railings, and who gave a kind of signal to the man in
the area, as if to warn him of the approach of any one.
Witness went forward to the area and spoke to the man,
who said it was all right, as he lived in the house. Wit.
ness was not satisfied, and he took the two men to the
station-house. On the prisoner Brake (the man in the area)
a number of skeleton keys were found. Witness ascertained
that Brake did not live in the house, but that he had for-
merly lived in the service of the gentleman who occupied
the house, but that now he was in service at No. 44 in the
same street.

The prisoner Brake said he merely went down the area to
call upon the footman who had succeeded him.
Mr. MALTBY said he should remand both prisoners for a
few days, in order to give the police an opportunity of mak-
ing proper inquiries.
Thomas Alexander Barker, a clerk in the service of Messrs.
Williams and Co., silk-mercers, Oxford-street, was charged
with embezzlement.

Several cases were alleged against the prisoner, but as it
was expected there were other eases not yet known the pri-
soner was remanded.

Mary Cavanagh was charged with robbing her master, Mr.
Martin, agent, No. 3, King-street, St. James's.
The prisoner had been in the service of the prosecutor
only a few days. A quantity of table-linen and other arti-
cles were missed, and the prisoner was accused of the rob-
bery. The duplicates of the missing property were found in
her possession.—Fully committed.
London, England, 1846-08-11

LAMBETH.

Yesterday Mrs. Louisa Harney, a middle-aged woman of
respectable appearance, was :placed at the bar, before Mr.
Elliott, on a charge of plundering Mr. Thomas Bloyds, a
gentleman residing at Castle-hill, Englefield-green, with
whom she lived as housekeeper, of property to a considerable
extent ; and Charlotte Harney, Julia Harney, Emma Harney,
Henry Harney, and Edward Sonee, were placed in the dock
on a charge of receiving the property well knowing it to have
been stolen.

Mr. Clarkson, the barrister, attended for the prosecution ;
and a professional gentleman, whose name did not transpire,
appeared on behalf of the prisoners.
From the statement of the Learned Counsel, and the evi-
dence of the witnesses, it appeared that the elder prisoner,
Mrs. Louisa Harney, had entered the service of the prose-
cutor, Mr. Bloyds, and up to a few days since that gentle-
man entertained the highest opinion of her. Having been
informed, however, that various boxes and hampers had
been from time to time sent from his hon.p to the Bull and
Mouth booking-office in town, he had made some inquiries
into the matter, and found it quite true. He also ascer-
tained that one of the packages sent there had been
actually addressed to himself, and to be kept till called for;
and that this, like the others, had been taken away by the
same parties. This induced him to employ Morton, an active
officer belonging to the P division of police, who soon found
out that the persons who were in the habit of taking away
the parcels were the children of Mrs. Harney. He in the
next place traced the parties to a house in Hertford-street,
Walworth, where they resided, and which contained a wag-
gon load of property of all descriptions. Amongst the articles
produced were a quantity of window and bed curtains,
Turkey carpets, table and bed linen, china and glass, wine,
brandy, hams, tea, coffee, soap, candles, preserves, and a
large box of the choicest hot-house grapes, pines, melons, &c.,
all of which was sworn to as being the property of the prose-
cutor.

After a lengthened examination the prisoner was remanded
for a fortnight, but the magistrate consented to liberate the
prisoner Sonee, on his entering into his own recognisance to
appear at the next examination, and also to take bail for
Charlotte, Julia, Emma, and Henry Harney, but refused to
take bail for Mrs. Harney, their mother.

PEDESTRIANISM.

RACES AT WALwonrn.—The handicap race, open to all
England, to leap 12 hurdles in 440 yards, came off yesterday
at the Beehive ground, in heats. For the first, John Smith
came in No. 1, Charles Westhall 2, and George Martin 3;
the other competitors, Nutt, of Leicester, and Williams, no-
where. For the second heat, which proved the final one,
John Smith and George Martin alone started. It was a
pretty race; the first, second, and third hurdles were taken
almost together; at the fourth and fifth Smith had a trifling
lead, but at the seventh and eighth, Martin not only col-
lared him, but showed slightly in front; he did not, however,
retain his forward position, and the following hurdles were
gained by Smith before his light and youthful antagonist,
who resigned so soon as they came into the level running.
Mine host of the White Hart was consequently the winner
of the gold watch, value 201.
THE QUARTER OF ♦ MILE RACE.—For this prize, the men
being handicapped, Charles Westhall started from the
scratch, Brookson, having five yards' start, and Martin and
Warwick ten yards each. The result was that Westhall
was first at the winning-post by three yards (Brookson
having fallen), and Martin showed as second, Warwick being
a bad third.

THE MILE RACE.—This prize, a silver snuff-box, was con-
tested by a complete crowd of pedestrians. Of these we shall
only notice those who are known to the public. Brookson,
Warwick, Nutt, and Makepeace started from the scratch,
while a mob of eight runnnrs received twenty yards, accord-
ing to the conditions. We shall leave the position of the
minor men unnoticed. Warwick led the first quarter of a
mile, with Brookson in close attendance, with Makepeace and
Nutt third and fourth. The pace soon told on the com-
moners, and at the third quarter Makepeace led, Brookson,
Nutt, and Warwick being in tolerably close attendance.
Eventually Brookson was the winner, Makepeace having
given in, and Warwick and Nutt being beyond the possibility
of gaining a place.

BLOCKADE or THE TEDIPLE.—The carriage entrances
to the Temple are now completely blocked np, the principal one at
Middle Temple-lane, by this stoppage of Fleet-street, and the other at
King's Bench-walk, by the formation of new sewers in Whitefriars.
the only convenient access now is from Essex-street, Strand, which
is the nearest point for a carriage ti? stand ; and Fleet-street will
shortly be almost impassable even for foot passengers:

POOR REMOVAL BILL.

Lord ASHBURTON presented several petitions, amongst

sure, in reference to the removal of the poor, was a most imper-
fect measure, and calculated to do the greatest injury to the
petitioners.
LIVERPOOL, ORMSKIRK, AND PRESTON RAIL-
...
London, England, 1846-08-11

Aa eveisw eotou is well from the pockets of the wealthy as the
poor Pensioner.
The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER said that
some misapprehension seemed to exist on the subject. The mea-
sure which the Hon. Gentleman proposed to alter was introduced
at a time when it was the greatest boon to the soldier. At
the time it was brought forward all persons were paid at the
end of the year. He assured 'he Hun. Gentleman that the sub-
ject should receive the consideration of her Majesty's Govern-
ment, but it was impossible fur him to gu further than this de-
claration.
Captain L AYARD said, that under these circumstances, he
would withdraw his motion.
After a few words from Mr. P. HOWARD, the motion was
Withdrawn.

COMMITTEE OF SUPPLY.
The Home then resolved itself into a Committee of Supply,
Mr. GBACZNE in the Chair.
Colonel ANSON then moved that a sum not exceedii.g
575,670/. be granted to her Majesty for pay, allowance, and
contingencies of Ordnance Military Corps.
After a few observations from Mr. Williams, Mr. Bernal,
Air. B. Escott, and others, the vote was agreed to.
The next vote proposed was 340,981/. for the commissariat
and barrack supplies for her Majesty's forces, great coats for
the army, clothing for the colonial corps, &c.
This vote, after an irregular discussion in reference to the
barrack accommodation at Hong-Kong and other settlements
abroad, was also agreed to.
The following votes were then agreed to :-
94,903/., to defray the expense of the Ordnance-office.
223,025/,, to defray the expenses of the ordnance and
barrack establishments in the United Kingdom and colonies.
125,3921., wages of artificers and labourers in the United
Kingdom and colonies.
390,1841 to defray the expenses of ordnance stores for land
and sea service.

611,946/. for work?, buildings, and repairs.
60,969/. for the scientific branch.

- --
120,459/. was voted to defray the non-effective services,
military and civil, for three-quarters of a year.
The resolutions were then agreed to, and the House re-
sumed.

REVENUE.
Mr. MOFFATT wished to know from the Chancellor of
the Exchequer what article it was proposed to levy a duty upon
to make up for' the deficiency which would be caused in the
revenue by the reduction and equalisation a the sugar duties ?
The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER was not
prepared to say what the article was on which the duty was in-
tended to be substituted. It would be exceedingly incon-
venient to say at present what that article was, and, consider-
ing the difficulties attending the subject, he thought the best
course would be to defer naming the article till next session.
London, England, 1846-08-11

FLOGGING IN THE ARMY.

Mr. B. ESCOTT wished to know if the Noble Lord had any
objection to lay on the table a return of persons flogged in the
army in Great Britain and Ireland, in the years 1845 and
1846 to the end of July; specifying, 1. The offence. 2. The
regiment, the place of station, the time. 3. The sentence.
4. The order for its execution. 5. Whether the trials were
open to the public, or only open to the regiment, or with closed
doors. 6. The number of lashes inflicted, and the day. 7.
How soon after punishment the man was able to return to his 1
duty, and at what place he was then quartered. 8. Whether
death had followed within twelve months of the flogging, and
the date of such death. 9. Whether the punishment was
inflicted, if in cavalry regiments, by the trumpeter or farriers;
if in infantry regiments, by the privates or drummers, anc
with what instrument. 10. Copies of the surgeon's minutes
of all such punishments, and any subsequent observations on
their consequ, races.
Lord JOHN RUSSELL said that be had an objection to
the motion in its present shape.
Air. B. ESCO r T then said he would postpone it till a
future time.

four. een Members in the House, it was counted out at half-
past Twelve o'clock.

FREE FLOGGING AND SLAVE

FLOGGING.

TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN.
have frequently heard the English people speak in
the strongest terms of reprobation of our system of flogging
slaves in America, describing it brutish and horrible beyond
measure, and degrading to any nation professing to be
Christian. Allow me to ask you how it '
ls that the sensitive
people of England are so silent after one of their own nation
has been cut bit from bit, and killed by this horrid, but, allow
me to say, thoroughly English srsiem of puni,limenr. I
have since my residence in Eogland heard your clergy almost
their
'
execrate for what they, sutir to go on in
country with impunity—uav, never even raise their voices
against it. As far as profession of religion goes, you, Sir,
have ten times over whit we have in my country, but, I
must say, I think far less practice. I know not whether you
are aware of it, but we have no such bloody work in our
army now. I know of no nation who £0 soon see the mote
in a brother's tve as yours ; and, as men professing Chris-
tianity to so great an extent, I tell them to wipe out this
blot in their own land bcore they talk to us about flogging
slaves.—.l am, Sir, &c.,

COMMITTEE OF SUPPLY.

The HouEe then resolved itself into a Committee of Supply.
Mr. GREENE in the Chair.

Colonel ANSON then moved that a sum not exceeding
575,672/. be granted to her Majesty for pay, allowance, and
contingencies of Ordnance Military Corps.
After a few observations from Mr. 'Williams, Mr. Bernal,
Mr. B. Escott, and others, the vote was agreed to.
The next vote proposed was 340,951/. for the commissariat
and barrack supplies for her Majesty's forces, great coats for
the army, clothing fur the colonial corps, &c.
This vote, after an irregular discussion in reference to the
barrack accommodation at Hong-Kong and other settlements
abroad, was also agreed to.
The fac.ving votes were then agreed to :
. „

94,903/., to defray the expellee of the Ordnance-office.
223,025!„ to defray the expenses of the establishments in
the United Kingdom and colonies.
125,3921.. wages of artificers and labourers in the United
Kingdom ald colonies.
390,1841 to defray the expenses of ordnance stores for land
and sea service.

611,9613/. for works, buildings, and repairs.
60,9691. for the scientific branch.
120,459/. was voted to defray the non.effeetive services,
military and civil, for three-quarters of a year.
The resolutions were then agreed to, and the House re-
sumed.
REVENUE.

Mr. MOFFATT wished to know from the Chancellor of
the Exchequer what article it was proposed to levy a duty upon
to make up for the deficiency which would be caused in the
revenue by the reduction and equalisation of the sugar duties ?
The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER was not
prepared to say what the article was on which the duty was in-
tended to be substituted. It would be exceedingly incon-
venient to say at preent what that article was, and, consider-
ing the difficulties attending the subject, he thought the best
course would be to defer naming the article till next session.

LITERATURE.

SCIENTIFIC AND LITERARY TREASURY.
By Samuel Maunder. Foul th Edition.

What a terrestrial globe is to a multitude of maps this
little book is to an ordinary library. It is the accumu-
lation and condensation of knowledge upon almost every
subject; and it offers in a compact and portable form as
much of real instruction as is usually scattered through
many hundred volumes. Mr. Maunders has with no
little ingenuity selected the very cream of all the
encyclopedias that have ever been published, and pre-
sented it to us in a book, six inches by four in dimen-
sions, two inches in thickness, and in weight a very few
ounces--avordup ois. It is a volume to be carried in
one's valise uprin a journey, and would answer all the
purposes of a library of reference. The gentleman
who has compiled this remarkable work has shown
himself gifted with the keenest appreciation of what
is really 'worthy of mention and what is altogether
superfluous. He has stripped off the redundant husk,
and has even broken away the shell ; his book is
certainly the very kernel and pith of knowledge.
Although the type is somewhat diminitive, it is so
sharply and clearly printed that the sight is not in-
convenienced by the perusal. Mr. Maunder has con-
ferred a benefit upon his fellow-creatures ; his work is
the vade mecum of literature and science.

EXPORTS.

The express of the 24th of April mail came in on the
4th instant, and the Hindostan on the following day. The
market ativices are on the whole rather more favourable
than had been generally anticipated from the tenor of
previous accounts.
The ge ieral aspect of our commercial affairs has in no
respect undergone any change for the better, and our present
report must be merely a repetition of the last. Money is as
tight as ever, the Bank as stringent, and exchange up to
2s. 2d. Most exports are lower, but still offer little induce-
ment to those who are in a position to ship, and the quantity
brought down on the first rise of the rivers will probably
cause a further decline.
