HER MAJESTY'S THEATRE.
(TRAM) i.:XCRA NIGHT.
31adlle. SOFIE CUUVELLI.
It Is respectfully announced hat a Grand Extra Night will take
place on 'I 1117R,DAY next, when will be produced (ior the last
time) Beethoven's Opera,

or medical practitioners, should contribute as highly
to the ',national expenditure as the dividends in the
public funds, or the chief rents of well circumstanced
real estates. On another, when the absolute injustice
of some fiscal impost is clearly exposed and unspar-
ingly denounced, without caring to defend its pro-
priety, he declares with enviable nonchalance that it
produces so many thousands per annum to the reve-
nue, which he is certainly not prepared to relinquish,
and thinks, or at least appears to think, that
this stereotyped argument, which be has repeated
usque ad nauseam, should carry with it conviction
to the minds of independent Members. Again,
he puts forward as the perfection of " free trade"
a system of charging the home producer with duty on
the quantity of spirits originally made, as measured
at " the worms-end," without making any allowance
fur leakage, soakage, or evaporation, in fact, for
waste of any description, while the foreign or colonial
competitor is only liable for the quantity brought
into consumption, and for which he is remunerated.
It would be an endless task to undertake the recapi-
tulation of the amiable weaknesses of our Model
Minister of Finance. Many men are said to " have
lived before their age," but the great Whig financier
has unquestionably been born a century too late-
He would have been an invaluable assistant to some
Mieiaters of former ages, for never was there an
abuse, however flagrant, a grievance, however cry -
ing, which Sir CHARLES WOOD could not have de-
feeded with arguments at least as powerful as those
put forward on the Income aed Property-tax Bill,
the Home-made Spirits in Bond Bill, and other wee-
eures of a similar character.
But be has recesatly gone, perhaps, to a higher
pitch of absurdity than he ever reached before. It
would really appear as if his object were to
render the Celr:net of which he is a member as un-
popular as it can possibly be made. The entire
Customs system is bad enough. It imposes, even
under the most favourable circumstance, sufficient re-
etrictions on the trade and intercourse of nations,
without being extended beyond the spirit in which it
was originally framed. Sir CHARLES WOOD, how-
ever, endeavours to render it more stringent in its
operations, and to take away every indulgence here-
tofore afforded, that might render the burden in any
degree less vexatious and onerous. His present
attack is on Manchester, which he seeks to deprive
of the privilege of bonding goods conferred upon it
six years ago, simply because the town council of the
borough has refused to bear the entire expense of
collecting the Customs' duty in the manufacturing
metropolis of England. He will not, however, be
permitted to inflict this serious it jury on the exten-
sive district, of which Manchester is the centre, with.
out being resisted to the utmost. Mr. MILNER
GIBSON has given notice of motion for to-morrow
evening, for the appointment of a Select Com-
mittee " to inquire into the working of the systeni
of warehousing foreign goods in bond in Man-
chester, as it affects importers, dealers, and con-
sumers of goods liable to Customs' duty, residing
in Manchester and the neighbouring towns; also as to
its effects on the Customs' revenue, and to report to
the House as to the expediency or otherwise of
placing Manchester on an equal footing with all
bonded towns in the United Kingdom," and we
cannot for a moment suppose that the representatives
of the people will refuse to grant the investigation so
urgently demanded by no uninfluential body, an in
vestigation which can only render more apparent the
equity and justice of their claim.
It may, and doubtless will, appear strange to the
majority of our readers, that Manchester should now
have any well-founded cause of complaint—that
Manchester, which stood forth as the champion of the
remainder of the kingdom, and was the chief agent
in removing the infamous bread tax, should have to
seek justice for itself. But so it is. Sir CHARLES
WOOD has, notwithstanding the almost miraculously
successful result of the experiment tried in 1844, in-
timated his intention of depriving Manchester of the
privilege of bonding goods, unless the town council
will continue to bear the entire expenses Gt
the Customs' establishment, and to collect
the whole revenue without deduction or draw-
back of any kind. Unforturavely he possesses
the power cf so doing under the Act
passed B'h VICTORIA, and there is every reason to fear
chat he will exercise that power unless the feeling of
the L-gialature and of the community in general be
unequivocally exhibited in opposition to the attempt.
It is right, too, that the other members of the Cabinet
should know the amount of odium which their un •
popular colleague is endeavouring to inflict on the
Ministry of which he id a member.
In order that the question should be clearly under-
stood, it is right that we should set forth briefly the
facts of the case. When the privilege of bonding was
first conferred, it was only granted to certain seaport
towns of considerable size and importance. We need
scarcely say that no special or additional charge was
made against these localities. The Customs' depart-
ment in every instance bore the expense of the staff
which it considered necessary for the security and
protection of the revenue. In some of the larger dis-
tricts they were fully recompensed, but in others
the expenses were found to exceed the gross receipts,
so that considerable caution was exercised before ex-
tending the privilege to new towns. It was felt, how-
ever, that it might safely be granted to some inland
towns, and in 1839 a Bill fur that purpose was intro-
duced by Mr. POULETT THOMPSON, then President of
the Board of Trade, and afterwards Lord SYDENHAM.
It is right to add that the measure did not contem-
plate the imposition of any additional or peculiar
charge on the inland districts. In 1840, Mr. LA.,
BOLCEIERE, who had succeeded Mr. POULSTT THOMP-
SON, at the Board of Trade, introduced a similar
Bill. This Bill was referred to a Select Committee,
of which Mr. WILSON PATTEN was chairman, and
Messrs. LABOUCHERE, J. PARKER (now Secretary to
the Admiralty), GOULBURN, and Lord G. SOMER
SET were members. This Committee, after a stringen
and searching investigation, sanctioned and recom.
mended the principle of the measure. The Right
Honourable Gentleman the Member for the Uni-
sity of Cambridge dissented from his
colleagverues.
He proposed an amendment to the effect " that it was
inexpedient to recommend any general
system of
admitting inland towns at the discretion of
the Treasury or the revenue boards to
the unrestrained privilege of warehousing foreign
goods, free of duty." The objections of the Right
Hon. Gentleman were founded on the necessary
outlay for maintaining such effective establish-
ments as were essential for the protection of
the revenue, the expeaaes of which " could
only be defrayed out of the general re-
venue, or by the imposition of some new charge on
goods warehoused in inland towns ;" adding that "to
the latter there appear very substantial objections."
Lord G. SOMERSET also brought forward an
amendment, in which he drew an exception in favour
of Manchester, using these remarkable expression,
" Your Committee feel that there are peculiarities in
the situation of Manchester which, both in regard
to the revenue and in respect to the an-
ticipated advantages, form a decided dis-
tinction between Manchester and any other
inland town of manufacturing and commer-
cial importance," and concluding with these no less
remarkable words in reference to the opposition
to the measure, that "if experience could show
that the benefits which are anticipated by
Manchester are not exaggerated, however much
your Committee may regret the inconvenience
to individuals, they would be acting on the most
erroneous principles, if, on account of such an appre-
hension, they recommended no relaxation of the
existing system in regard to that large, and im-
portant manufacturing district which is expected to
be benefited by the permission of bonding goods
in Manchester."
In 1844 an Act in favour of Manchester was passed;
Mr. GOULDORN was then Chancellor of the Exchequer,
and insisted on the principle which he bad
sults before us, uras,,
formerly deprecated being carried out, and the
total expense of the establishment being defrayed by
the town council. As it was then an experiment, the
ceomneduittilotnofwatanetsviceenoi complied with, and we have now the re-

CHRISTIANIA, JUNE 14.—The Storthing, in its sit-
ting yesterday, adopted almost unanimously the pro-
position of the committee on the constitution, to re-
peal the second section of the fundamantal law. The
section is as follows :—" Tne Israeli es are prohibited
from entering the kingdom ;" consequently Jews will
now be allowed free admission into the country.

ITALY.
In its sitting of the 17th the Chamber of Deputies
of Turin passed, by 103 votes to 30, the Bill autho-
rizing the Government to contract a loan of seventy-
five millions of francs for the construction of railways,
with the proviso that the said sum shall be plsced on
mortgage on the railway lines to be constructed.
Among the vvtrks lately prohibited by the Sacred
Congregation of the Index at Rome we find the fol-
lowing ;—Magnetism, Arcane of Future Life Un-
veiled, or the Existence, Form, and Occupations of
the Soul separated from the Budy, by Alphonse Caba-
guet ; Spiritual Magnetism, a journal edited by the
Spiritual Society of Paris ; the Magnetiser's Guide,
or Magnectic Operations according to Mesmer, Puy-
seAur, and Deleuze, by Cabaguet ; A Treatise on
Physiology, considered as a Science of Observation,
by C. F. Burdache, Professor at the University of
lionisberg, with additions by Professors Baer, Meyen, Meyer, Muller, Itathke, Valentin, and Wag-
ner ; The Prospects of France, considered according
to the true Principles of Society, Liberty, National
or Popular Sovereignty, and the Revolution of 1789
by the Abb64Nicod, curate of the Croix Rousse.

ROYAL BOTANIC SOCIETT.--111 consequence of the
backward season the show of roses announced to take place
on Saturday In the gardens of the Royal Botanic Society was
virtually postponed until the 2d of July, for which vouchers
were issued to those who were present. Messrs. Lane and
Son, of Berkhampstead ; Mr. Panl, of Claeshunt ; and Mr.
Rivers, of Sawbridgworth, are the principal exhibitors, and
their respective displays promise, when at maturity, to be ex-
tremely beautiful. The number of visitors on Saturday was
considerable; and the enjoyment of the promenaders was
materially enhanced by the playing of the militeri buds whist way .41 ittudan.

THE SUN, LONDON, 1 MONDAY EVENING, JUNE 23, 1851.

r mentioned sum of 319,300/. was only 2,7071. 2s. 2d.,
or about 16s. 9d. per cent., the general average
throughout the kingdom being V. 19s. 6d.
per cent.; and yet, although the trial has been
so singularly successful, our blessed CHANCELLOR
of the EXCHEQUER threatens to remove the
privilege unless the council will continue to bear the
expense of the entire establishment. This is really
too bad. It is " out-Heroding Herod," it is even
going beyond any former freak of Sir CHARLES
WooD himself. We trust, however, that the inde-
pendent Members will muster strongly to-morrow
evening, and teach a salutary lesson to the Financial
Minister that be cannot be permitted to carry on such
vagaries with impunity.

THE FRENCH REPUBLIC.

We have received the Paris journals of Saturday
and of yesterday.
The Assembly on Saturday adopted by a large
mejurity the Bill for continuing for another year the
law fur the suppression of clubs. In the course of the
discussion, M. JULES DE LASTETRIE, who supported
the Bill, directed the attention of the Government to
the proceedings of the Bonapartist club, the "Society
of the 10th December," who were the sole getters up
of petal, na fur the prolongation of the powers of the
PRESIDENT, M. BAC also accused the Government of
partiality in p .sink over w ithout notice the illegal
proceeding, of the 13onapartist clubs.
Toe Ctiminittee on the revision met on Saturday.
PAvax was in favour of a Republic, and opposed to
the restoration of Monarchy, hut he was also in favour
of the re-election of the PRESIDENT. 111. LARADLT
proposed to consult the nation on one point, an'
on one point only—the re-eligibility ofthe PRESIDENT.
M. CRETON proposed that a constituent Assembly
should be elected ro decide between the R .public and
the Monarchy. M BOUHIER DB L'ECLUSE would
have, in addition, a Provisional President, whose
powers should expire when the Constituent should
have decided the question between Republic and
Monarchy,
The review, on Saturday, passed off quietly. The
cries i f Vive la Republique drowned those of rive
Napoleon.
The ettnmittee on the treaties of La Plata recom-
mends the Assembly to adopt the Bill proposed by
the Government for the ratification of the Le
Predour treaties.
The Parliamentary club of the Rue des Pyramides
held a sitt:i.g to proceed to the monthly renewal of its
bureau. Nl. MONTALEMBERT was elected President
in the room of Admiral CSCILLE, and M. ADDER-
, TIN, questor, to replace M. AUGUSTIN GIRAUD. The
nuresu is )ow composed as follows :—MM BROGLIE
DS FLAI%NT, DR MONTALEMDERT, presidents; and
MM. DARtsra, TOUrOT DE BEILEUX, and AUBERTIN,
questors.
It is said that M. TRIERS is about to proceed to
Vienna, *sere he will meet the Duke DE NEMOURS
and the Luke DR BOURDBAUX, and make another
effort to bring about a fusion.
The -1102iteur Algerien of the 15th contains the
" We stop the press to announce the receipt of favour-
able news arrived by the mail from the East. General
St. Arnaud, in spite of the bad weather and the great
difficulties of the ground, had beaten in several engage-
ments the contingents of the tribes to the west of Djid-
j.lly, who endeavoured to resist him. All Inc circle of
Djiiijelly to the west, and even several tribes, have made
their submission. The losses of the French column are
confined to a few men wounded. General Camou, atter
inflicting sotie chastisement on some tribes on his route,
had just arrived amongst the Beni.6limoum, at ten
kilometres from Bugle. The garrison of that place bad
marched to join the column. Ceneral Camou, with that
reinforcement, will march to the east to the Beni-Sliman
where the proximity of General St. Arnaud will facia.
tare his limo General Camou has also received an.
merous submissions."

The Conitnitiee on the Internal Administration
Bill assemb'ed on Friday, in the 14th bureau, to vote
on the report of M. DE VATIMESNIL, concerning com-
munal organization. A warm di&cussion took place
between MNI. MICUEL (do Bourg-s), E. ARAGO, DE
VATIMESNIL, FARCONNET, and DE LADOULIE, on the
passage in the preamble of the report containing a
eulogy of the electoral law of nay 31. A division
then took place on the subject, when it was decided
by a ingjority of 16 to 11 that the passage should be
maintained.

Tne Committee on the Avignon Railway Bill cow-
menced on Friday the examination of the prop ,sition
of M. Dur.tuaa. It decided by a majority of 9to 5
(one Member abstained from voting) that the State
should tyke on itself provisionally the execution of the
works. This decision, however, does not pledge the
future, as it is well understood to be subordinate to
the question of ways and means, and that of know-
ing whether or not the State will be able to find the
necessary resources.

We learn from Vienna that the Austrian Minister
of the Interior has called upon all Frenchmen in the
states of the EMPEROR to make a declaration of their

CITY, TWO O'CLOCK.
al% The sales of Cotton at Liverpool on:Saturday were
estimated at 5,000 bales, of which 1,500 American were
taken for export, and 500 on speculation. The market
was steady at previous rates.—Railway Shares were
rather firmer.
The Corn market is firm, and Wheat is ls. higher.
It is estimated that the imports of bullion within the
last two or three weeks, will be sufficiently large to add
92143 f; a further sum to the amount in the Bank of England,
141 until the period when the dividends become payable.
Last week very considerable arrivals both of gold and
silver took place, representing altogether from two to
three millions of dollars. A good proportion of the silver
comes here from America on foreign account, and accord.
ingly we see, week after week, a steady re-shipment to
the Continent. This was the case again in the re-
turn which we gave on Saturday,. showing nearly
600,000 ounces of silver to have been forwarded in six
days from London alone. Still our receipts of bullion
3 % exceed our exports. As regards the chance of retaining
the present heavy stock of specie, it seems tolerably fair,
but there ever must be uncertainty until the harvest is
secured. The prospects of the crops are not unfavour-
able, although the season is acknowledged to be back-
ward; but the consumption of the United Kingdom is so
large, that unless the farmers have a much greater sup-
ply in their granaries than they are supposed to have,
an extensive importation from abroad will be indispen.
gable. For this we must pay partly in coin, the French,
for example, being poor customers for British manufac-
tx tures; but a very important question arises, via., whether
the French growers have not already reduced their
stores to such a low point, that in the
event of the yield this year proving inadequate they will
not have to re-purchase in foreign countries at advanced
rates. This view of the case is not wholly unreason-
able in face of the accounts which have reached us
al. within the last two or three days from the other side of
di6 the Channel. The markets there appear to be rising,
snd there has been less flour sent to the London market.
What we lake iu food from the United States, and even
the Baltic ports, we shall at least in part liquidate by
barter. Unless from the extraordinary proauctivenese
of the Californian mines, and the obtainment of cold
thence in exchange for oar goods, we should not hail an
accumulation of the metals in the Bank of England
coffers as a satisfactory circumstance. The Bank of
(23% France is gorged with riches yet the trade of the coun-
try languishes, and better far would it be that the money
should return into active circulation, not alone in the in-
terest or the mercuritile community and of the revenue,
but likeeise of the Bsuic proprietors. All circumstances
nsider, d, there was seldom a quieter and less specula
iao business doing throughout Europe than at the pre-
sent time, although we must not forget that cotton had
recently its turn. Tne next movsmenr, deny is to occur
at all, will probably be in grain. for the quantity of sugar
coffee, and colonial staples obtainable from one quarter
or other, is likely to be adequate for all purposes.
The advice, by the steamer Canada, from the United
States, are on the whole favourable again in respect to
money matters. The Corn-market was dull, and Cotton
steady. Tee re-action in Cotton has led to some failures
during the last two or three weeks on the other side to
the Atlantic, but these had very little effect on business
generally, and it is stated "they are by no means to be
considered a criterion of the condition of the commer-
cial classes in this, or any other part ef the country."
The account. from British North America are very
- cheering, and Canada is especially prosperous. The
weather, however, was wet and backward in the lower
province, and the low grounds near St. Maurice were
flo ided.
The Ilamburgh mail of Friday lest gives the Ex-
change on London at 13 2f, being lower.
The English Stock Market has been very quiet again,
and the quwations have been without alteration. Con

of importance in the circumstance
The aspect of affairs
in France would be more likely to induce a cautious
policy, for until it is known what the Assembly will do,
there is danger of reaction in the Bentes which might
be made a handle also by the Bears of Consols. East
India Stock for account is at 265.
The Foreign investments have been very dull. Spanish
Bonds are nominal; the Five per Cents. at 201 and
the Three per Ceara. at 40f to 41. Portuguese Four
per Cents. have been at 33 to 34. Buenos Ayres Stock
is worth 551, Bri.zilian 88k, and Chilian (Three per
Cents.) 64; Mexican Bonds, after being 34k have
rallied to 341 f Russian Bonds are 1024 to f. Dutch
Two and-a-Half per Cents, bring 60k.
Railway Snares opened with rather an improved ap-
pearance, but they have become weaker since. The
market is in an unsatisfactory condition, and the belief
in many quarters is that speculation has most to du
with it.
