rfIE SUN, LONDON, WEDNESDAY EVENING, JULY 1857

all that evasion and all that unfaithfulness—
the Advocates of the Ballot number• just
about One-Third of the Whole House of
-Commons ! No longer a mere handful Glaser*, able
upon an occasion adroitly managed to surprise a
very small house into a microscopic majority, in
support of the annual motion of the member for
Bristol, say in between the Derby and the Oaks
Nothing of this kind any longer—but a compact
phalanx of just upon two hundred representatives.
So that the Ballot, after all, has made an advance,
a decided and appreciable advance in the New
Parliament. " After all "—viz., after the short
memories of some and the small courage of others—
after the paltry non-attendance of Evaders, and the
impudent recalcitration of the Recanters !

There is my Lord JOHN RUSSELL, for example,
what in the name of Truth, of Honesty, of Fair
Dealing can we possibly say of him and of his
astounding conduct yesterday ? What—but that
he and his brother (Lord CHARLES, the Sergeant-
at-Arms) have regularly done [there is no other
phrase for it]—have regularly done the metropo-
lian constituency. We assert it, we repeat it—.
we are not talking at random—we maintain that
the course pursued by those two noble brothers
in regard to the question of the Ballot
is a course irreconcilable with one's notions of
perfect candour and magnanimity. Recollect
what took place on Lady-day last in the City of
London ! Remember the meeting then on that
25th of March, 1.857, held by inhabitants of
the Ward of Broad-street, there, at the North
and. South American Coffee-house. Observe ! we
have forgotten neither time nor place—and cer-
tainly we have not forgotten what gave a-certain
degree of importance to both, namely, the words
that fell, there and then, from the lips of Lord
JOHN'S brother, Lord CHARLES RUSSELL, the
Sergeant-at-Arms of the British House of Com-
mons ! What were those words? They were
these : " I will state .to you a fact,"
said Lord CHARLES RUSSELL to the elec-
tors of the City of London, assembled
upon that occasion, on Wednesday, the 25th
arch, 1857, at the North and South Ame-
rican Coffee-house ! Mark the phrase—" I will
•tate to you a fact; I have autho-
rity for stating that the Vice-President and
Treasurer of the Ballot Society have both of them
x.pressed their determination to support Lord J.
RUSSELL in the coming election, so satisfied are
they with his conduct. After all, I want to know
ii LORD JOHN RUSSELL so determined an oppo.
Icnt of the Ballot as some here seem to suppose ?
fn the abstract I am, myself,. in favour of open
voting ; but what made me a convert to ie Dal-
(3t was seeing the enormous amount of coercion

exercised in an election when I was candidate—
in(' I have heard Lord JOHN RUSSELL say, when
he was contesting Devonshire, that he saw things
'hen which, though in the abstract he was

opposed to the Ballot, led him to believe it pos-
iible that he might be driven to it." Indeed,
Lord CHARLES RUSSELL declared further

Shan _this, he asserted that what Lord JortN
.vented first of all was to carry a large extension
,f the franchise : and added then—" When two
'nen out of seven, instead of one out of seven
Ind the power of voting, the argument against
Vie Ballot would not be quite so strong
n his brother's mind as it was !" Very
well. Now recollecting all this, and re-

lolleeting that at the time those words
vere uttered, that at the time that declaration
,vas volunteered by Lard JOHN RUSSELL'S Brother

he election of Lard JOIIN was a matter very

loubtful indeed, and not all to be calculated
Ipon ! Remembering that, and remembering
that a little while afterwards Lord JOHN' was
brought in the " third" upon the list of the suc-
Tssful candidates, by a generous and not by a

r'lctious umbination—What, we ask, does the
!ountry think of the Noble Lord the Member for
'he City of London now ? Now that his conduct
in reference to the Ballot can be viewed dis-

tinctly, between the cross lights thrown upon
It by two very different speeches—by the speech
,nado on Wednesday, the 25th of March, by
Lord CHARLES RUSSELL, and by the speech de-
.ivered on Tueslay, the 30th of June, by Lord
JOHN RUSSELL? We leave the question to the
lonscience of the general community.
And in reference to the Times ? Well, the
,tory there is as old as the hills. It is a thing
quite notorious—an inevits.b:e necessity, as such
iniversally recognised. The Times, in regard to
Reform, in regard to the Corn-laws, in regard to
verything—says obstinately Nay, until the period
ias arrived when everybody else says Yea, and then
the Times says Yea too. It has been so before. It
is so now. It threatens to be so always. The
Times was dead against Free Trade until every-
thing combined to show plainly that Free Trade

IA last must as a matter of certainty be trium-
phant. And then—at the eleventh hour and
three-quarters, and fourteen minutes, and fifty-
nine seconds—the Times veered round dead
against Protection. It will be the same, in due
course, with the Ballot—" in due course," ob-
serve ! Not sooner and not later. We are now

at just about the tenth hour in regard to
the Ballot. That we are at that, the division
of last night demonstrates incontestably.
Consequently, when, politically speaking,
there shall have elapsed one hour more, and three-
quarters and fourteen minutes and fifty-nine
seconds, and perhaps half the beat of a pendulum
besides—whirr 1 round the Times will inevitably
go "For" the Ballot, and proclaim it a " great
fact." We can wait for all this now calmly and
confidently. The minority of 189 is at once our
solace and our encouragement.

A diplomatic crisis has occurred at Constanti-
nople. The Belgian Envoy, M. BLOUNDEEL DB
COELEBROECK, has received his passports from the
Ottoman Government, with an intimation that
his room will be far more acceptable than his
company. His Muscovite tendencies were well
known, but it is more than hinted that it was not
merely for abstract opinions, but for direct in-
trigues against the interees of those to whom he
was accredited, as the representative of King
LEOPOLD, that he has been so summarily
ex-
It is
positively affirmed that the object which
the expelled envoy has been striving to accomplish
was the union of the Principalities, and the' for-
illation of a Roumanian
sOvereignly of a Prince of one of the European
Kingdom, under the
families. The House of CODURG has generally
looked , sharply after -every opening, for ele-
vating one of its • cadets to a Royal
station. it has a keen seen- t atter possible vacan
.cieF, and we may safely venture to
speculate on
the quarter from whence the hints by Lord JOHN
RUSSELL, as to the importance of selecting the
Moldavo-Wallachian sovereign from the scions of
European Royal Houses, emanated. King Lao-
?OLD thinks of that " poor little Flanders," and
how nice a thing it would be to elevate him to
such a position ; and surely he has bid high for
the most sweet voices of the Great Powers 1
He has a strong claim on the gratitude of the
Cwt., for aiding and assisting in extricating
" Holy .Russia " from the dilemma in which
she was placed, and bringing about the lame and

impotent 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 CO BURG.
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 Austria, has he not "friends at Court,"
through the Duchess DE BRABANT, the cousin of
the Red Emperor, and also in 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
barbered, and England may be taxed as a make-
weight in the bargain that is to consign a sceptre
to the Count DE FLANDERS.
It only remains, then, to conciliate Lours
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 to 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
iu 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
denied—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 the
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.
lawis has tendered his own evidence to the same
effect, by gratuitously undertaking to pay off the
whole of the redemption money for the Sound
Dues, 1,125,0001., 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 from the
exportation of so large an amount of specie 1
It is true that there is a deficiency for the pre-
sent quarter, which might have been greater, but
for the fact that the payment of duties on tea,
coffee, and sugar, ware, whenever practicable,
deferred during the last quarter, and that, con-
sequently, large sums were received at the re-
duced rates during the first week of April. Suffi-
cient has, however, appeared, to establish on the
most conclusive evidence thatthere 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 Moneyocracy, and in opposition to the
interests of the industrial population of the coun-
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 I

As we have stated there is a deficiency on the
quarter I This amounts to 263,2411. Button
the other hand, and despite that falling off, there
is an increase on the year of 1,827,0421., :the
total receipts for the year being no less than
72,060,8211., against 70,233,7791. in the Pre-
ceding year—and thatof the quarter 17,274,7621.,
against 17,548,0031. in 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 111,2221., 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 700,0001. 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
in 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 cf April. The collection of the hop
duty was also postponed, and this, it is said, ac-
counts for nearly a quarter of a million of the
deficiency.

In the Stamps the increase for the year i 6

302,5011., .the deereae, for the:qUarter 7,592/,
•
The former is doubtless owing tq he gra4ual de-
velopment of the succession. duties, Which the
Chancellor of the Exchequer believes will even-
tually produce 1,200,0001., although only
500,0001. 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 to b.
ascribed to the stringency of collection, rather
than to the produce of the impost.
The Property Tax, the great source of direct
eontribntion to the exigencies of the Exchequer,
shows an increase on the year of 980,7701., and
on the quarter, notwithstanding 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 have 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 stabs 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 y eri, which, in
the case of private individuals, might bo 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 AITTIOR.

Last evening St. Martin's Hall, Long-acre, was
crammed—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 almost seemed to threaten to post-
pone the Reading indefinitely. However, the
Reading did come on at last, and having continued
(with ouly five minutes interruption, 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 remem-
bered, terminates. 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 ! 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 more than they did last night at
the calves of old Fezziwig'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 !
Whereupon the said Peter pulls his collars up so
high, that "you could not have seen his head if
you had 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 Sorooge'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 entire 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 memorable
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 1

QUJEIV'S CONCERT BOOsIS, HANOVER.
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 Messent, Madame Clara
Novello, the no.? Swedish singer Mdlle. Hertha de
Westerbrand,
Herr Reichardt, Signor F. Lablache,
and Mr. Sittig Reeves. The instrumental performers
were also of a high class; they included Signor Piatti oa
Herr Ruhe on the pianoforte. This gentleman is a
the violoncello, Herr Engel on the harmonium-, and
brilliant and finished performer and was lludly
applauded in all his efforts. He played a
duet from Beethoven for the piano and violin,
" Le Revell
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 Clara Novello
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 Balta. 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
811 ccess.

RE DEATH OF THE DUKE OF MARL-
BOBOVGLI.

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