icapotent conclusion of the war, so earnestly de-
precated by many English hearts. Besides his
influence in producing the Union, and pledges as
to future good behaviour, might go far to secure
the. Russian vote and interest. England and the
English, need scarcely be canvassed by a COBURG.
The irresponsible Minister will; of course, do as
he thinks proper, without consulting the opinions
or wishes of the people, and they, GOD help them,
have only to grin and bear it. The voice of pub-
lic opinion is suppressed, until too late, to avert
the evil.

As to Austiia, has he not "friends at Court,"
through the Duchess DE BRABANT, the cousin of
the Red Emperor, and also iu consequence of the
active part which he took in playing the Austrian
game. While the contemplated Prussian al-
liances, the 8,0001. per annum and 40,0001. hard
cash, transferred to Prince FREDERICK..
WILLIAM with the eldest born daughter
of England, will ensure the co-operation of
CLICQUOT. Besides, is there not another Prin-
cess whom it may be desirable to obtain with an
equal appanage for the Prince of ORANGE, first
Cousin to the AUTOCRAT ? Her hand may be
bartered, and England may be taxed as a make-
weight in the bargain that is to consign a sceptre
to the Count DE FLANDRES.

It only remains, then, to conciliate Louis
NAPOLEON in order to render the Belgian
cock tail first favourite for the Danubian
Cup. There are many ways by which
this- may be attained, and we have
no doubt that every iron is placed in the
fire—every nerve strained fto produce the
desired result. The connexion with the House of
ORLEANS may be used,' as well as that with Great
Britain. It is stated that England has become
the humble suitor to France for assistance against
YEH and his poisoners. This must unquestionably
gratify the amour propre of the EMPEROR. It
will be a great card in his hand, whether he deems
it expedient to comply with or reject the application.
It is in the Independance Beige that the intelli-
gence is first communicated, as well as the time
exactly specified for the visit of the EMPEROR and
EMPRESS to Osborne, which, by the way,. we pre-
dicted some weeks since. All these things con-
stitute strong circumstantial evidence that LEo-
POLD has what is popularly termed "a finger
in the pie," and that the acts or rather
the intrigues of the plenipotentiary were
not altogether opposed to the will of his
master. The Ottoman Cabinet may, however,
well be excused for the summary expulsion of the
party who has so grossly disregarded his diplomatic
privileges. We do not, however, anticipate any
serious difficulty. LEOPOLD possesses extraordi-
nary facilities for wriggling out of the consequences
of any serious escapade ; of this we have had
unequivocal testimony in his recent conduct in
reference to the Religious Corporations Bill, and
we have no doubt that he will exhibit similar
worldly wisdom in the present instance. If the
charges against M. BLONDEAL are not susceptible
of the cleaerest proof, they will be emphatically
deniel—if otherwise, he will be unhesitatingly
repudiated, while some compensation will be pro-
vided for his injured honour. It is now
clear that the Porte perceives the coming danger
and is resolved to exercise the utmost vigilance,
and as being " fore-warned" it is also fore-armed,
we may anticipate that the Belgian dodge will go
for nothing, and that no serious perils may be
anticipated from that quarter for the future.

The Revenue Returns for the year and quarter
ending the 30th June have been duly published,
and will be found in another part of this day's
impression. They are of a very satisfactory cha-
racter, so far as the financial condition of th•
country is concerned. They, however, fully con-
firm the opinions which we expressed respecting
the statement made by the Chancellor of the Ex-
chequer on the 13th February, and prove be-
yond the possibility of doubt that the additional
Income-tax of 2d. in the pound, and also the ex-
tra duties on tea, coffee, and sugar, were by no
means required by the exigencies of the Treasury,
and that they were obtained by means of repre-
sentations which, in a private individual, would
be very sharply criticised. Indeed, Sir G. C.
LEWIS has tendered his own evidence to the same
effect, by gratuitously undertaking to pay off the
whole of the redemption money for tha Sound
Dues, 1,125,000/., and refraining to avail himself
of the privilege of liquidating the amount
by instalments spread over a term of years
as he might easily have done, and thus saving not
only a heavy burden from being imposed on the
revenue of the present year, but also preventing
the monetary disturbances likely to arise front the
exportation of so large an amount of specie !
It is true that there is a deficiency for tha pre-
sent quarter, which might have been greater, but
for the fact that the payment of duties on tea,
coffee, and sugar, were, whenever practicable,
deferred during the last quarter, and that, con-
sequently, large sums wero received at the re=
duced rates during the first week of April. Suffi-
cient has, however, appeared, to establish on the
most conclusive evidence that there was at all events
no necessity for the Crusade against the teapot,
the coffee-pot, and the pie-dish, on which Sir G.
C. LEWIS entered with such unequivocal gusto.
All his exertions have palpably been for the bene-
fit of the Moneyocraey, and in opposition to the
interests of the industrirl population of the coup;
try. And it remains to be seen whether the
representatives of the people will endorse a policy
so partial in its operation, and so injurious in its
results !

As wa have stated there is a deficiency on the
quarter ! This amounts to 263,2411. But on
the other hand, and despite that falling off, there
is an increase on the year of 1,827,042/., the
total receipts for the year being no less than
72,060,821/., against 70,233,779/. in the pre-
ceding year—andthatof the quarter 17,274,7621.,
against 17,548,0031. iu 1856.

Looking to the particular items, we find that
under the head of Customs, there has been an
improvement, both on the year and quarter, on
the former of 472,0241., on the latter of 280,6251.
On this there ought, according to ordinary calcu-
lations, to have been a deficiency to something
about the amount of the increase, from the re-
ductions that came into operation. But these,
it appears, were far more than counterbalanced
by the rush of payments in the beginning of
April.

In the Excise, there is an increase on the year
of 111,222/., but a decrease on the quarter of
501,0001. This is mainly attributable to malt
and hops. It was anticipated that the reduction
from 4s. to 2s. Bd. would have occasioned a loss of
some '700,000/. on the former article alone. It has,
however, been but one-third of that amount. We
cannot, however, attribute this satisfactory state
of affairs to increased consumption, but rather as
iu tea, coffee, and sugar, to the postponement of pay-
ments during the last quarter, in order to obtain
the benefit of the reduced duties, and the consequent
diminution of stocks and heavy payments in the
beginning
of April. The collection of the hop
duty was pAB, postponed, and this, it is said, ac-
counts Pir nearly a quarter of a million of the
deficie-4cy.
In the Stamps the increase for the year

302,5011., the decrease for the quarter 7,5921:
The former is doubtless owing to the gradual de-
velopment of the succession duties, which the
Chancellor of the Exchequer believes will even-
tually produce 1,200,0001., although only
500,000/. was last year received therefrom. On
the Taxes there is a decrease on the year of 61.,
and on the quarter of 19,0261. These are tp to
ascribed to the stringency of collection, rather
than to the produce of the impost.
The Property Tar, the great source of direct
contribution to the exigencies of the Exchequer,
shows an increase on the year of 980,7701., and
on the quarter, ❑otwithstanding the reduction of
the so-called war 9d., of 78,7391.
This is, however, exceptional. There are large
arrears in course of collection, and few hove as
yet been obliged to satisfy the claims of the col-
lecto rs at the reduced rate.

The Post-office shows an increase on the year of
76,8481.—a reduction on the quarter of 41,0001.
The Crown lands an improvement on the year of
2,3411., while the quarter remains in static quo ;
while in the miscellaneous there is a deficiency on
the year of 118,6591., and on the quarter of
14,0371. On the whole the returns are eminently
satisfactory to all, save those whom they prove
to have been guilty of a suppressio veri, which, in
the case of private individuals, might be deemed
approximating to the case of receiving money (we
shall not say on false pretences, but) on very un•
fair and unfounded. statements.

" THE CHRISTMAS CAROL."

READ BY ITS AUTROR.

Last evening St. Martin's Hall, Long-acre, was
cramined-A-literally crammed, in the Body of it, in
the Stalls, and in the Galleries—by an audience
assembled to hear Mr. Charles Dickens read his
Christmas Carol. It seems very cold-blooded to
put the matter simply thus, in a way so perversely
and miserably matter-of-fact. Rather let us say,
then, that—Glorious Charles Dickens read his im-
mortal Christmas Carol yesterday ! Adding, that
he read it to an audience as attentive as it was en-
thusiastic. We don't remember ever to have
witnessed a more stirring ovation than the one
accorded by that audience to the most popular
writer of our generation. His appearance upon
the platform was hailed by round after round of
applause—applause so earnest, prolonged, and
sustained that it alarost seemed to threatea top )st-
pone the Reading indefinitely. However, the
Reading did come on at last, and having continued
(with only five minutes interrupt ion, about midway)
from 8 p.m. to very nearly 10.30 p.m., the close
of it was the signal for an outburst of cheers,
mingled with the waving of hats and handkerchiefs.
There was a genial "grasp of the hand" in the
look of every kind face turned towards the platform,
and a "God bless him" in every one of those ring-
ing cheers—the last but an echo, in truth, of the
memorable benediction of Tiny Tim with which
that matchless "Carol in Prose," it will be reinern-
bared, terminateq. It is hardly necessary to ob-
serve that throughout the two hours and a half oc-
cupied by the reading of that little golden master-
piece, Mr. Dickens was interrupted again and
again by reiterated roars of laughter 1 And no
wonder; for apart from the glory of the book itself,
there were the marvellous mimetic powers of the
author reading it—giving piquancy to the dialogue,
poignancy to every jest, and a new provocative to
merriment in the turn of every humourous expres-
sion. The most telling bits of all were unquestion-
ably and beyond any manner of doubt—the
Christmas Dinner of the Cratchets—the Dance at
Fezziwig's—and the after-dinner fun at Scrooge's
Nephew's ! We can't, for the life of us, fancy
people laughing morn than they did last night at
the calves of old Pezziwig's legs "shining like
moons" in all parts of the dance, or of his ulti-
mately seeming to wink with them when he "cut"
Peter's shirt collars too were, in both sense of the
phrase, an enormous success whenever mentioned—
from the time when we were told that he longed
" to show his linen in the fashionable parks" to the
climax of it, when Martha observed, that a lord
she saw the day before was about as tall as Peter 1
Whereupon the said. Peter pulls his collars up so
high, that "you could not have seen his head if
you bad been there !" How the audience roared,
too, at our old friend the fiddler coming in and
making an orchestra of the desk, and " tuning—.
like fifty stomach-aches !" And at every syllable
of the account of the way in which that incorrigible
Topper went after Scrooge's niece's sister in
the great game of Blindman's-buff ! It is
wholly idle, however, it is altogether super-
fluous to particularise. The satire Reading from
first to last went off—unaffectedly, be it said, in
the strictest meaning of the word—to admiration.
The crowded and appreciative audience were de-
lighted—thoroughly. And so, for that matter,
must the Author have been himself, by the whole
manner of his reception. It was a treat to every
one present, and one of a very rare and memorab'e
description.
The occasion of this Reading, it should be ob-
served, was one constituting it the Second in the
attractive Series of Entertainments arranged by
the friends and
admirers of the late Mr. Douglas
Jerrold to swell the funds of a grateful Testimo-
nial—.in his Remembrance !

QUEEN'S CONCERT BOOMS, riANOVER-

SQUARE.

Herr Kuhe and Madame Bassano gave their annual
concert at these rooms on Monday at two o'clock. The
rooms were crowded. The list of vocalists included
some of the best concert singers of the day, among
them Madame Bassano, Miss Measent, Madame Claia
Novell°, the new Swedish singer Mdlle. Hertba de
Westerbrand, Herr Reichardt, Signor F. Lablache,
ned Mr. Sims Reeves. The instrumental performers
were also of a high class; they included Signor Piatti on
the violoncello, Herr Engel on the harmonium, and
Herr guile on the r ianoforte. This gentleman is a
brilliant and finished performer and was lludly
applauded in all his efforts. He played a
duet from Beethoven for the piano and violin,
"Le Reveil des Fees," and a very brilliant polka,
performed for the first time on this occasion. He sub•
sequently played some of Mendelssohn's beautiful Lieder
Ohne Worte. Signor Piatti achieved his usual success
on the violoncello in a piece of his own composition, and
Herr Engel's performances on the harmonium are too
well known to need criticism. Madame Ciara Novena
and Madame Bassano sang some Italian morceaux with
taste and execution. Mr. Sims Reeves sang Beethoven's
" Adelaide" with his usual skill and expression, and also
the favourite serenade from Tennyson's " Maud," ar-
ranged by Belle. There were many other attractive
pieces in the programme; among them several trios and
quartette. The audience appeared highly gratified, and
the concert may be considered to have been a decided
success.

fig DEATH OF THE DUKE OF MARL-

8010 rGir.

This morning on the assembling of the Cambridge
election committee, Mr. Deasy, the chairman, an•
nounced that he bad received a telegraphic despatch
from the Marcitiii orßlandford; stating•that he was
prevented attending the sitting of the committee, in
consequence of the death of his father the Duke of Marl-
borough.

LNTEST NEW s;

A Paris letter in the Independance of Brussels,
says :—" The following is a fact the correctness of
which I can guarantee. Lord Palmerston two
days ago had a long conference with Count de
Persigny, when the English minister pointed out to
the French ambassador that the situation of affairs
in India was such that a considerable display of
force had become necessary. His lordship added
that it would be impossible for England to send
fresh reinforcements to China, and demanded for
this latter war, in case it should continue, the active
co-operation of France. Count de Persigny pro-
mised to transmit Lord Paln3erstota's request with-
out delay to the Emperor. Will the British cabi-
net succeed in obtaining the aid it asks for ? that I
cannot say. What leads to the belief that every-
thing that the Imperial government can possibly
do will be done is the constantly increasing good
understanding between the two governments. I
think I may now depart from the reserve I have
hitherto maintained on the subject of the visit of
the Emperor and Empress to England ; their Ma-
jesties wiil arrive at the Isle of Wight on the 28th
July, to pass a week at Osborne House,"
