direct them for a personal illustration of what British
traders were to the gentleman who sat by his side, Mr.
George Moore, the treasurer of the society. He was an
eminent example of the qualities by which wealth was ob-
tained, and of the virtue in the exercise of which it should
be spent. He believed he was proud of having been 'the!
architect of his own fortunes. When he came to London
he was but 17 years old, and was without a friend. At the
ago of 22 he became a traveller for an ewineut firm in the
lace trade. His zeal and his abilities founded his reputa-
tion. That reputation led on to fortune. lie became part-
ner in that great firm he had since so conspicuously ad-
vanced. They knew how well he had since used his ad-
vantages for doing all the good in his power, in promoting
charities for the relief of distress and for the education of
the young. He had thrown his whole heart and soul into
services of that nature with as much ardour as if he were
again building up a fortune for his own children. So
much zeal was sure to be successful—of course it had sec-
ceeded. He called on them, as friends of the institution to
which Mr. Moore had rendered great services as its trea-
surer, to drink to that gentleman's health. (Cheers.)
Mr. GEO. MOORE said it was now 11 years since he
had commenced to take an interest in these schools, and he
felt more embarrassed on this occasion than he had on any
similar one, for their excellent chairman had pirated every
idea he had in his head on the subject of the institution.
(A laugh.) However, it was more his duty to give an ac-
count of his stewardship, as their treasurer, and to tell
them how that large sum of money they had entrusted to
him had been disposed of. He would, therefore, trouble
them with giving them a few particulars of the results of
his labours during the last eleven years. They had erected
a building which they considered faultless. The cost, in-
cluding gas-works (for they manufactured their own gas),
farm buildings, draining, water supply, and playground,
was 22,2211. The architect's commission and law charges
amounted to 1,2261., and that was a small item, he thought,
judging from the experience he had had of both architects
and lawyers. (Hear.) They had purchased 25 acres of
excellent land, for which they paid 2,0001. That made an
aggregate of 251,4471 They did not think their place
would be complete without a lodge and two cottages for
the farm labourers, and they had erected those buildings
at a cost of 600/. That made 26,0471., and lie would say
there was not a better building in England than the Corn•
mercial Travellers' School. Both the architect and the
contractor had done them ample justice. At the outset
there were some fears that the site would be found too low
and damp, but he was happy to say the climate was quite
healthy, and the periodical reports of the doctor informed
them that they had nothing to complain of in this particu-
lar. At this time they had in the schools 99 boys and 4G
girls ; at the Monday's election there were received ten
boys and six girls, making 109 boys and 52 girls, altogether
161 children. Their funded property amounted to 13,000/.,
I which produced an income of 400/. a year. The annual
subscriptions were 3,6001., making a total fixed income of
4,0001. This had been raised whilst they hat been all along
grunibfing about the fewness of their subscribers. (Hear.)
Their expenditure annually was now 4,5001., and he had no
doubt they would be able to say when they separated that
night, that, so far as general purposes wore concerned, they
were free from debt. There was sufficient room in their
building for 145 boys and 80 girls, altogether 225. If they
calculated the annual cost of maintaining them at 25/. each
an expenditure of 5,15251. would be sufficient to take in all
the building would hold, and that, he had a strong impres-
sion, would include all the orphan children of commercial
travellers in England, Scotland, and Wales. (Cheers.) Up
to this time they had not exceeded their income, but if they
wanted to fill the building, tey would require 5,6001. a
had at present 4,000/. a-year, and the dif-
year. Now they
ference would enable them to fill it to the brim, and take
in every orphan of a commercial traveller in England. It
was the height of his ambition to expend the money they
entrusted to his care so as to do the utmost amount of good,
and be was gratified to inform them that out of 61 boys
who had up to this time left the institution, there had never
yet been one who had disgraced it. (Hear.) That was a great
consolation to them. He was pleased to tell them that oneof
the boys had subscribed the first ten guineas he saved after

not trifle with them.
Ch. of Ex.—l humbly crave pardon. I was about to
say that, being aware of the kindliness of your disposition,
I thought you might be willing to assist me in a difficulty
which oppresses me greatly, and I took the liberty of call-
ing you from the region of shades to solicit a word of your
invaluable counsel.
Sp.—You have my works; I left them for the guidance
of such as you.
Ch. of. Ex.—l think I have a copy in my library of your
invaluable work on the Science of Figures.
Sp.—Don't attempt any deception. You in•ly possess a
copy of my great work, but it is clear you have never con-
sulted it. It would have been more respectful had you
done so before disturbing my repose. What is it you
want ?
Ch. of Ex.—l was desirous, sir, of consulting you con-
cerning
the " unreasoning impatience of taxation " on the
part of many who have raised an outcry against the con-
tinuance of the property and income tax.

Sp.—Read me the title of the Act of Parliament.

Ch. of Ex.—l stand corrected; but we call it a pro-

Ch. of Ex.—But, sir, "what's in a name? a rose, you
know, " by any other name will smell as sweet."
Sp.—You will never wake your tax sweet, call it by what
name you will ; it stinks in the public nostrils. But let
that pass; only we will, if you please, call it by its right
name, "a Tax on Profits."
h of Ex.—But is it nut in fact a property tax ?
Sp.—No, sir. Is your brain property. Is ingenuity
pr party ? Professional skill, literary excellence, plodding
well directed industry, ar' these property ?
Ch. of Ex.—No, sir, nut in a commercial sense; but we
tax property also.
Sp.—You do, the profits arising from property, but very
gingerly. You lay burtbens, heavy and grievous to be
horns, on the profits of industry, but property hardly
touches them with one of its fingers.
Ch. of Ex.—Will you expl Lin to me how the Property,
and In—l mean, tax on Profits does this ?
Sp.—Listen, then, and I will instruct you. The Income
Tax, as you call it, is a masterpiece of statecraft, originally
invented by the late William Pitt ; it is a contrivance of
surpassing ingenuity for extracting the largest possible pro-
portion of money from the pockets of the industrious and
intelligent cre.,tors of wealth, in order that a proportionate
immunity from taxation may be enjoyed by the possessors
of wealth ; it is a tax upon the working bees of the social
hive for the relief of the drones. The deep ingenuity of
the contrivance consists of two things ; first, the artfulness
by which it deludes its victims into the belief thit
they aro taxed equally or proportionately with other
classes of society; and, secondly, the facility with
which it extracts the money from the pockets of
various classes in precisely the inverse ratio of the
amount of property possessed. In these respects I can
only compare it to a bat which travellers wrote of in my
day as infesting some southern climes, which lightly fanned

AN AMERICAN STEAM BATTERT.—The Harbour steam
battery which has been building at Hoboken for a long
time past, by Mr. Steevens, is being roofed over, prepa-
ratory for winter, as the work has been suspended, ex-
cept on the engines. It is still carefully screened from
public view, and visitors are seldom admitted. The
original projector having died, the work is carried
forward by a surviving brother. Among the estimates
of appropriation by the -Unite,' States Government for
the ensuing year is $86,717 for this enterprise; She
has been planked up to the main deck with heavy
iron plates, and amidships the planking had been ex-
tended several feet higher, for the protection of
the machinery. Tt is understood that other layers
of plates are added, so as to make a wall at least six
inches in thickness, proof against shot and shell. The
appropriation already made and expended f‘,r this object
was $250,000. In addition a large amount has been ex-
pended by the builder in the excavation of the dry dock in
which to construct the vessel. The length of this iron bat-
tery is about 400 ft. She will be equipped with a heavy
armament and furnaces for heating shot, and be propelled
by steam-power at unusual speed. It is asserted that
she might be run into any ordinary vessel, cutting her
in two. This work was commenced after a long series
of experiments, under the supervision of Commander
Stewart and Col. Patten, representing the army and
navy, to determine the penetrating power of common
shot upon plates of iron. Their report was satisfactory,
showing that wrought iron plates, 4 inches in thickness,
formed a perfect defence against a solid 641 h. shot, fired
at a distance of 10 yards, rar that successive layers of
iron plates, with intervening spaces, were equally effi-
cacious. The Secretary of the Navy was soon after
authorised to contract for the work here noticed. Fur
harbour defence such a craft as this must prove highly
efficient, moving about rapidly, choosing its positions at
Pleasure, regardless of the most formidable missiles of
the enemy, and hurling its heated shot and other projec-
tiles in every direction, the havoc committed would be
fearful. The cost of this "infernal machine," complete,
has been estimated at 1,000,000 dols.-Nczv fork Jour•
twa of Commerce.

more than ever the citizens of the world, and eur tradel
in order to maintain itself, must take advantage of all
such modes of transit, not only iu this country, but upon
the Continent. You therefore act wisely in deciding that
a certain portion of the yearn of education shall be occu-
pied by the study of those two modern languages most
practically useful in the operations of our trade, and in
the interchange of the wants of our commerce—l mean
French and German. And I think it it not without some
reflection and, for a practical purpose, that you have added
to the study of these languages some insight into Latin.
Not that I presume to predict that you will be able to vie
with academies and schools purely classical, or that you
will turn out very profound Latin scholars, but partly be-
cause Latin is the readiest key to such modern languages
as are formed in some measure from it, but principally be-
cause there is no modern language which makes so much
demand upon the observant and reflective faculties, which,
when once roused, may be applied to all other purposes
its
very as that Latin language which contains within
very grammar all that symmetry of close reasoning which
is as useful to the understanding as logic itself, but which,
unlike the rules of logic, are adapted to the comprehension
of children. To this more solid instruction I am pleased
to see that you have added other lighter accomplishments,
such as music and drawing. Not that drag ing itself is a
mere accomplishment, it is also a useful art to persons en-
gaged iu commercial and manufacturing negociations and
transactions. I think that my friend Mr. Moore would
tell us that a young man who was also able to give a clear
sketch with his pencil of some fabric or pattern in manu-
facture, may dispose of them much better than he could
possibly do by words, let him take what time ho pleased
in expressing them, and therefore would his services
be of greater value to his employer. Music, too,
is one of those accomplishments the pursuit of
which demands no extravagance, and the indul-
gence in which bequeaths no remorse. (Loud cheers.)
I alai not surprised to find that your theory of education
bears the test of practice, and that commercial houses
which have taken some of your pupils are always ready to
apply for others. (Cheers.) Nor am I surprised at the
immense rapidity with which you have established this
institution upon 130 solid a basis. Land has been purchased,
schools erected at a cost of more than 25,0001. and you
have a reserve fund of 13,0001. invested in government,
securities, wad all this has been accomplished iu the space of
two years. I am not, I say, kurprised at your success.
