ASSESSED TAXES.

(From a Correspondent of the Times.)
At the meeting of the Metropolitan Deputies, held the
other evening, at the Bri'ish G.ffee-house, a communica-
tion was made by one of the deputies, which, in all pro-
bability, will tend to obtain a majority for Sir John Key's
motion on the 30th, for the total repeal of ,h- house and
window taxes. The communication was as follows :

" The Treasury have decided to issue return tax pipers
(which papers are now nearly completed) for the purp,se
of being delivered to every householder in the kingdom by
the tax col'ectors. The return is to be made on oath by
every hnu•ekeeper of the exact rent he pays; a duplicate
of his last half year's riceipt for rent is to accompany the
returns, in order that the house tax may be levied to its
full extent Surveyors are to be appointed by Govern-
ment to v lue the houses of freeholders, and fix the rent at
which their houses are to be assessed "

It is to be hoped that a Reformed House of Commons
will render this machinery unnecessary. It is evident
that Sir John Key's motion is not considered to be hostile
to Minis, era, as Sir John Hobhoitse informed Lord Althorp
on the evening of his bodge that he should feel it his duty
to vote for Sir John Key's motion.
A Cab:net Minister voting against a Chancellor of the
Exchequer will be somewhat of an anomaly ; but the
Right Hon. Baronet will have the Attorney-General (Sir
William Horne), Mr. Grant, and other Members of the
Government with him. It is presumed that Sir John
Key may likewise c ,nculate on the votes of a large majority
of the member for boroughs, as there has been a general
xpect.tion, in almost every town, that thebotise and win
dow tars would he repealed by the present Parliament. Ii

BRADFORD STUFF MARKET, THURSDAY
EVENING.—The demand for goods to-day has been fully
a+ good as on the previous week, but the finer sorts are
mo•tly required.—Leeds Mercury.
ROCHDALE FLANNEL MARKET. —On
Monday last the flannel market was better attended both
by buyers and sellers than for some time pas'. Middle
sorts sold briskly, but the demand for fine and low qua-
lities continues dull.—Leeds Mercury.

KING'S THEATRE.—The opera of Ceneren-
tola was never better, perhaps never so well, cast, either
in this country or on the Continent, as Sa'ur iay night,
with Madame CINTI as the heroine, DONZELLI as the
Prince, TAMBURINI as Dandini, and ZuctrELLl se the
Magnifico. Nothing could have gone riff more satisfac-
torily than the whole night's performance; CINTI tvias in
delightful voice and perfect execution ; and TASIEURINI,
never at fault, sang with his wonted admirat•le skill,
excellent taste, and noble voice. DONZELLI sank int:,
second-rate import .nee with there; but he maintained his
place wi,h ZUCHELLI, who is not exactly the man he used
To be when, several years ago, he was even thought c.,m-
petent to Don Juan. The bal►et of Zephire et Flare
also had powe fun attractions. TAGLIONI ma e her fir-t
appearance this season, and hat good ground to be content
with her reception, as the spectatois had to be content with
her dancing.

DRURY-LANE THEATRE.—The Farce of
The Irish Tutor was played at this house on Srturday
evening, for the purpose of introducing to the public a
little girl, said to be ten ye,irs old, in the part of Doc or
O'TooLE, The thing is very clever at imitation,
and imitated POWER'S action very closely. Nohiidy could
expect that her accent would be anything like that of an
Irishman—in endeavouring to make it appear so, it was
neither the accent of Jew nor Gentile. So far as dialogue
went the little actrtss failed ; but in saying this we do nut
mean to say that in that point she would fail in characters
that would suit her age and sex. She sang "The Groves of
Blarney" pretty tolerably, and many of her points were
applauded The farce was preceded by She Stoops to
Conquer, in which Mrs. NISBETT played the part of
of hits* HARDCASTLE with more than usual vivacity.
The other parts were filled by old favourites; and the co.
m edy was as atnusiog as the generality of old comedies.
The House was full.
