A BUMPER FOR BucizoruN.E

Wednesday evening next, the 2d of July, is fixed for
Mr. Buckston4 annual benefit at the Haymarket. Au
old and popular favourite, Mr. Buckatone possesses a
threefold claim upon the London playgoers—as a Mana-
ger, as a Comedian, and as a Dramatist. " Three gen-
tlemen in one," like Cerberns or Captain Absolute—he
advances these combined claims upon public regard and
public patronage, not so much as one eminent but as one
who is in truth a perfect master in each capacity, facile
princeps in the triple character. A capital actor, an ad-
mirable playwright, and a most successful director of
one of the theatres-royal of the metropolis, a theatre no
less notable than the time-honoured house known, from
the days of Foote downwards, as "the little theatre in
the Haymarket." Mr. Buckstone, therefore, we take
it, by reason of these threefold claims upon the popular
consideration, as Manager, as Comedian, and as Dra-
matist, is safe to have "a bumper" on Wednesday even-
ing. For which occasion, by the way, he has provided
a " bill of fare" promising his friends a wonderful variety
of entertainment. Shakspere's comedy of "Twelfth
Night" not acted for eight years past at the Haymarket)
is to be revived, with Mr. Buckstone himself as Sir
Andrew Aguecheek A new Spanish ballet, entitled
"The Ceptives, or a Night in the Alhambra," will fol-
low (first time), in which the feet of Perea Nena will
achieve miracles, aided by the scenery of Calcott and the
music of Fitzwilliam-!• The- evening (going like clock-
work, or as " merrily as a marriage bell") to be "wound
up" with a new petite comedic, " Mr. and Mrs. Hughes
at Home," Mi.. Hughes being Mr. Buckstone, and Mrs.
Hughes, Miss Blanche Fane, that charming young
actress who has taken the hearts of all London by storm
this season by her exqeisite impersonation of "The
Little Treasure." Before the green curtain falls Mr.
Buckstone is to address the audience on Wednesday
night upon that the 815th consecutive night of this same
very memorable season at the Haymarket ! Let us hope
that circumstances may enable bias to tag his speech by
the repetition of those words of his as Sir Andrew Ague-
cheek in the comedy—"l'll stay a mo-aa longer I lam
a fellow o' the strangest mind in the world ; I delight in
masques and revels sometimes altogether." Wednesday
night, then—A Bumper for Buckstone ! As Sir Andrew
says n an earlier part of the play—" 0, 'twill be ad-
mirable !"

ARRIVAL OF THE GRENADIER GUARDS.
PORTSMOUTH, Sunday Night.—The Mauritius, with the
66th Regiment, haR arrived. She towed the St. Jtan
ti'Acre, with the Grenadier Guard.; on board, to the
Needle. 4. Tae &min has arrived with the 4th, and the
Ist Dragoons. The Candia brings some of the Royal
Artillery.

MALTA, June 24.—The Italian Legion is to be dis-
banded. All that can are to be sent back to Sardinia ;
but at Genoa all are to be rigidly examined by the police
previous to being allowed to quit the vessel. 500 were
to have been sent away in the Ci.y of London on Mon-
day last, hut they could not be got rsady in time.
WAR DEPARTMENT, June 28.—The following vessels
passed the Bosphorus on passage to England and Malta
on the 24th, 25th, and 26th inst :-0-prey, with 250 of

THE REVENUE.

The returns of-the revenue will be made up on Mon-
day night for no quarter ending on tiat day.. The ac-
counts will be realtlished, showing the gross revenue, in
stead of the net as, heretofore. This is carrying out Mr
Glad .tone's act of 1854. But the usual comparisons will
of course be wide upon the year and the quarter, by
putting together the gross and net revenues of the re-
spective quarters :and years, ending June 30, 1855, and
June 30, 1856.
The present reit: ens will be satisfactory as compared
with those of 185;5. In the great items of the Cu,ttinis
and Excise partic u larly, the resources of the country will
exhibit a steady 3-ustainment. In spite of the adverse
circumstance, of i4lie close of a costly war, the Customs
receipts will bear In, favourable comparison with those of
last year—whilst in the Inland Revenue, the sure test of
general prosperity and increasing consumption, there
will be an increase -of almost half a million on the quar.
ter, chiefly in the or operty and income tax, and in the
year, of no less a sun than four millions. These are
gra ifyiug results, and will anon, with extended com-
merce and increased' internal prosperity, make no for
all the drain that a, necessarily heavy war expenditure
has pro,hice,l. Tle.re is no ether country whose fiscal
system would bear such a large pressure, and exhibit
such bu,y.tricy Observer,

THE EXHIBITIwv ('F A.RT TREASURES
IN 1857.

The designs for the Exhibition building, which have
now been finally adopted by the .Executiv.e Committee,
promise to afford a most fitting r. ice ptacle for the inte-
resting and most valuable collec.,;io n of art treasures
which it is to he hoped the liberal Ity of possessors will
plats at the disposal of the promote rs of this national
undertaking. The main hall, upwa,r ds of 700 feet long and
100 feet wide, covers (including tL e t ranxept) an area of
nearly 80,000 square feet, and from, t! le imposing height
of the c.-iitral arched roof, of about 70 feet, will have the
finest effect.
The picture galleries will be quite mnrivalled in extent
and convenience of arratigemert. Tb 'y are upwards of
1,300 Get in length, with a unif arm wia th of 48 feet, and
are ingeniously divided into spacious a so as to
admit of the subJivision of the 'pl'.ltures :into the several
schools of art, without interrupting the attraction of a
lengthened perspective.
The site selected fur the erections of the building is to
the west of Manchester, distant about two miles from
the centre of the city, and in an opt in and elevated part
of the country.

Andrew Thomp,on, and until the rep .rt of that gentleman
was received no steps would be taken.

THE CENTRAL AMERICAN QUESTION.

In reply to a question from Mr. COBDEN,
Lord PALMERSTON Raid he was unable to state
when the correspondence relative to the Cantral Ameri-
oan question would be laid on the table of the house.
The Foreign-office had lately been much .engaged with
important duties, and he would inquire when the corre-
spondence would be ready, and inform the house either
to-morrow or nest day.
THE MALT TAX.

Mr. BALL asked the Chancellor of the Exchequer if
it was his intention to take off the additional 5 per
cent malt tax, nnw peace was re-estahlishelt
The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER de
cline -I answering the question.
SALARIES OF COUNTY COURT JUDGES.
Mr. ROEBUCK moved an address to her Majesty
that the mimes of 'he County Court Judges should he
fixed at 1,5001. per ant um ftr all the judges of those
courts, which he thought would not be too much for
them when it was con-idered the arduous duties they had
to perform, and the manner in which they discharged
tl,em, was considered. He referred to the establishment
of the county courts, and the salary fixed for the judges at
1,2001. per annum. Since then their duties bad been
increased, having insolvency to attend to, the hearing of
cases amounting to 501., and, where the parties con-
curred, certain cases where titles to land were in dis•
pute, &c , &c., so that they bad, to a great extent,
the civil litigation of the country in their hands.
The paymer.t of the judges had been transferred to the
Trea-ury, and their salaries were to be from 1,2001. to
1,5001. per annum. The duties of the county court
judges were different from those of the Westminster-hall
judges, who had the assistance of juries, which the former
had not. The amount of money involved, on which a
judge decided, was no criterion of the importance
of the case, or the judicial knowledge and acumen
required to be brought to bear on it, and he instanced the
important question of ship money in past times, where
the money at issue was 20s. ; but who would say the
principle at issue was not one of vital importance to the
country ? After referring to the position the judges of
this country held in the State, and the jealousy felt of
keeping the judges free from the influence of the Govern-
ment, he said that by the County Court Actthese judges
were brought cap in hand to the Treasury, and made to
bow to the Treasury Bench for the increase of their
salary from 1,2001. to 1,5001., which was not right, and
he illustrated this by referring to the case Of his brother.
in-law, who was a County Court judge, on the roinimun-.
salary. For some time he (Mr. Roebuck) had a notict
on the books of the house disagreeable to the Govern
ment, which he was unable to bring on ; after that Mr.
Wilson, the Under Secretary, came to him and said,
"How about your motion ?" he (Mr. Robuck) replied.
" Why, you know as well as I do that I can't bring it
on ;" he then said, "You know your brother-in-law
bas been for some time entitled to the maximum salary,

THE DEPUTY INSPECTOR OF FORTIFIOX-
TIONS.

Captain L. VERNON asked if it was true that Col.
Harness, Deputy Inspector-General of Fortifications,
had been removed from that military office in conse-
quence of departmental mi-•understandings with the chief
of the civil staff of the Or:?nance ?

MONSELL regretted to state that, in conse-
quence of the lima of conduct the gallant officer had
thought fit to adopt
,y revr,4:lia
he should longer hold the office
of Deputy InFpector of Fortifications. Both Lord Pan-
inure and himself enterta'n,iil the highest opinion of the
military abilities of the gallant gentleman, and they ha I
recommended him to the Commander-in-Chief to fulfill
the high and responsible duty of Royal Engiueer officer
at Malta.

THE LATE EXECUTION.
Lord IL LENNOX asked Sir G. Grey whether his
attention had been directed to the cvic•irnstances which

were alle:;ed to have occnTed at the execution of T.

B M.)nday bit ; and, ifßo, whether he

would undertake to institute an immediate inTiivy into

the case ?
Sir G. GREY said he saw with regret the c'rcum-
-tance to which the lion. member a►►uded in this morn-
ing's pipers. Until he saw the statements c•mtained
therein, and the information ho had received from the
hon. member, he had no official knowledge of the fact.
He immediately sent to the sheriffs of Lmdln and Mid-
cifesex, who were the offi,ials appointed to conduct the
execution, for a full statement of the circumstances. He
had not yet received any answer from the sheriffs, but
he thought there had not been time for them to furnish
him with the statement.

COMMUNICATION WITH AUSTRALIA.
Tn answ••r to n, rio...tion from S.r J. PAKINGTON,
Mr. WILSON said there could 13.3 no objection to

the memorial and plan relative to a monthly communi-
cation between this country and Australia being laid on
the table of the house, but he thought it would be dele-
terious to the interest of that c_dony to do so, and re-
open the question.
Sir J. PAKINGTON then gave notice that he should
postpone his motion with reference to an address to her
Majesty relative to this sulject.
TEIE MILITARY BOARD OF INQUIRY.
Mr. LA.YARD asked the noble lord at the head of
the Government when the Military B )ard of Inquiry

would sit, and what would ba the scope of their in-

quince ?
Lnrl PA.LIIERSTON said that the Board would sit
almost immediately. Questions had to be settled with
regard to the scope of this inquiry, which were now
nearly arranged, and the Board would almost imme-
diately commence its duties. The immediate inquiry
was with reference to those officers who had been incul-
pated, but of course, if other matters arose, the Board
would enter on them.
THE CENTRAL AMERICAN QUESTION.

In reply to a question from Mr. COBDEN,
Lord PALMERSTON said he wls unable to state
when the correspondence relative to the Central Amer--
oan question would be laid on the table of the home.
The Foreign-office had lately been much engaged with
important duties, and he would inquire when the corre-
spondence would be ready, and inform the house either

FIRE INSURANCES BILL.

The house having resolved itself into committee,
The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER moved a
resolution on which to found a bill having for ite object to
include in the general law affecting the payment of duty by
insurance companies agencies established by foreign own•
parties with a view to effecting insurances in England, and
which at present are not required to pay duty, the act of
Parfiaw, nt nos baring contemplated the establishment of
such agencies.

Mr.HADFIELD considered the proposition reasonable
and necessary, but he was convinced that if the duty en
insurance was reduced from 3s. to ls. per cent., the vffect
upon the revenue would be to make it a gainer, while a
great relief would be granted to insurers, and the system
of insurance much encouraged.
Mr. WILKINSON was also of opinion that nothing
could effect the object so well as a reduction of duty, ba.
cause they could not compel a man to insure property in
this country or prevent him from insuring it i❑ carol's.
He considered that the present duty pressed very heavily
upon the poorer classes of insurers.
Sir S. BIGNOLD considered that it was perfectly just
that foreign agencies should be placed under the same re-
strictions with respect to the payment of duty as English
companies, but he did not think that at the present mo-
ment the right hon. gentleman would be justified in giving
up two-thirds of the duty, neither did his experience teach
him that to lessen the duty would tend to increase the
amount of property insured or the number of insurers, for
he recollected when the duty was only ls. 61. per cent.,
and it did not produce that great addition of business to
insurance offices which hon. gentlemen opposite seemed to
think would result from its reduction.
Mr. HANKEY admitted the propriety of placing foreign
agencies on the same footing, but was convinced that the
only way of remedying the evil was to reduce the amount
of duty, which was a tax upon the mote provident portion
of the community. At present not more than one-third of
the property in the United Kingdom was insured, which
ho attributed mainly to the restrictions under which in-
surers laboured.

The resolution was then agreed to, and the bill was
brought in and read a first time.
CORPORATION OF LONDON BILL.
Sir G. GREY brought up this bill, which was read a
first time, and ordered to be read a second time on the
21st.
* POOR REMOVAL BILL,.
Mr. WILSON brought up this bill, which was read a
first time, and the second reading fixed for Friday next.
The house adjourned at 25 minutes to 10 o'clock.
