THE QUARTER'S REVENUE.

The sanguine expectations relative to the abundant
produce of the public revenue in the quarter that has
Just been brought to a termination have been more than
realised. In the two most important branches of income,
as affbrding a test of the advancement in trade and com-
merce, and, pari passu, strengthening the assumption
that the condition of the millions of the industrial popu-
lation has been elevated, a most important feature has
presented itself. Reference is, of course, made to the
Customs and Excise, in each of which a gratifying proof
is exhibited of an advancement towards a high degree
of prosperity under the action of the new commercial
code and duties brought forward and most trium-
phantly carried out by her Majesty's advisers. As
tending to influence the value of the national securi-
ties in futuro, the opinion of large stockhold-
ers is, that however high their values are at present,
there is every probability that a point exceeding the
highest range ever paid for the Three per Cents. will,
before many months have elapsed, be realised. The
elements for producing such a result are numerous, and,
in the first instance, let us notice an increase in the
amount of surplus revenue to be employed in the reduc-
tion of the National Debt. It is understood that, in the
present quarter, nearly 600,0001. will be laid out in this
way. It may be said that so small a sum, as compared
with the amount of the Debt, cannot work much in-
fluence, but it must be remarked that for a very long
time past the amount of Stock for bona fide transfer has
not been by any means equal to the wants of investors of
surplus capital. And on the accumulation of the accounts
in Chancery and in 'Bankruptcy, the absorption of Stock
by the Commissioners of the Savings' Banks—the rein-
vestments under powers that are imperative in chartered
and other corporations of surplus resources—the policy
pursued by joint-stock and other banks and associated
bodies—and there are sood grounds for the belief enter-
tained by practical men that a high range of values
must be maintained for the public securities. Aloney is
now not worth more than 2i to 3 per cent., and after the
payments of the quarterly dividends shall have began—
and that will be on Wednesday next—it is very ques-
tionable whether it will then be loaned on such favour-
able terms. It is not an unimportant feature, as con-
nected with the state of the Money Market, that, al-
though there has been a vast addition to the amount of
capital engaged in commercial pursuits, still such are the
accumulations that no perceptible diminution is apparent
in the demand for Stocks, and Railway, Banking, and
other shares for permanent investment.—Observer.

ADVERTISEMENT.—A MAN'S HAND SMASHED BY
MACHINERY CURED BY HOLLOWAY'S OINTMENT AND
PlLLS.—James Watkin, an engineer,- residing in Castle-
street, Borough, had his hand and wrist broken by a
steam-engine, was eight months at the hospital, where
they proposed to amputate it, which the patient would
not submit to. Several pieces of bone came away, be-
sides the formation of three abscesses on the back of the
hand. The wrist was perfectly useless, as likewise the
elbow joint, which had become quite contracted. In
this deplorable state he commenced the use of these ex-
traordinary medicines, which effected a perfect cure in
about nine weeks. Sold at Professor Holloway's Esta-
blishment, 244, Strand (where advice may be had
gratis), and by almost all vendors of medicine through-
out the civilised world.

Wheat is looking well in this neighbourhood, and
especially in the Holderness district ; for the most part
it is in full flower, well eared, thick on the ground, a
good colour, stands well, but short and irregular in the
straw. Since the late showers, spring corn and turnips
have improved wonderfully, and promise well. The hay
harvest has commenced, but the crop will necessarily be
very light.—Hull Adva tiser.

PRIVATE FORTUNE OF LOUIS

PHILIPPE.

The following article relative to the private domains
of the King, and the necessity of making a State pro-
vision for his family, appears in the Monitor of
Sunday :
Much has been said of the question of the dotation of
the Royal Family, but it never has been discussed'
This is the reason why so many and such grievous
errors on this subject have been spread among the
public. These errors have been either invented
or believed, and propagated by the factious env
mies of the throne, which was formed by the Revolution
of 1830. A great political evil has been the result.
Not only has the King and the Royal Family been sub-
jected to ii justice, but the King has been disgracefullf
calumniated, his situation, his intentions have been repre
sented to the country in a most illusive light, by the
aid of the most insidious falsehoods, and with the
most culpable designs. It is both a necessity And
a duty to destroy the labours of these inimical factions,
and to re-establish with regard to this grave question
the true rights and facts, and to explain it to those
honest and loyal people who have been deplorabli
abussd. In law the question is now regulated by the
of March 2, 1832, which regulates the civil list of we
present reign, and which provides that :
"In case of the insufficiency of the private domnie;
the dotations of the younger sons of the King, and e'
the Princesses his daughters, shall be subsequently sr
ranged by special laws."
Before this law, and at the period of the Revolution el
1830, the head of the House of Orleans was inpossessiee
of all that remained of the ancient appanage of his sous'
in virtue of Art. 4 of the law of the 15th of January, 1835 f
which is as follows :
" The property restored to the branch of Orleans,
execution of the royal ordinance of the 18th and 20tb
7,
of May, on the 7th of October, and 17th of November'
1814, and proceeds from the appanage of Monsieur,
brother of Louis XIV., secured to him and his tns'A
issue, will continue to be possessed in the same title as
condition by the chief of the Orleans branch, until es:
tinction of male issue, when the property returns to the
State."
Amongst the conditions thus attached, according
the ancient law, to precedents and to the law of 182,
to the possession of the Orleans appanage, were ,
three following :-
1.
The Prince appanagist owed an allowance (legtti
to his sons and brothers, and a dowry to hiS daughtekdr
and sister. 2. If the Prince come to the throne.s
appanage was united to the Crown domain, from 01°4
it was not distinct before 1791. 8. This opened to
Princes, while it deprived of their claims on the sr
panage, a similar claim for themselves and their de'
scendants on the domain of the Crown.
The law of January 15, 1825, formally maintain:de
these conditions and rights. The Revolution of 18',
broaght about the a,polication of the provision.
appanage of Orleans was united to the Crown. The
younger Princes were thus deprived of their claim Or t
eventual succession, and this opened to them at the SO
time a claim for compensation.
This was recognised and consecrated by the 21ste.,:
title of the law f the 2d of March, 1832, which wire
" The do:,ation of the younger sons and of the date
of the King shall be fixed by special laws hereafter...
In these terms was drawn up article 20 of the 1' 0(
of Law on the Civil List, presented to the Chamherif
Deputies on the 3d of October, 1831, by M. Cash:
Perrier ; but in consequence of an amendment adoP4s
by the Chambers and sanctioned by the King, 5 •
article, which became the 21st article of the law of
2d of March, 1832, ordered definitively—
" In case of the inadequacy of the private domain Pfd
vision (dotation) for the younger sons of the King'
for the Princesses, his daughters, shall be ulteriorli
gulated by special laws." the
Thus, to admit the right of the younger sons of .00
King, and of the Princesses, his daughters, to a pro
regulated by special laws, the law requires that tlO re
vats domain of the Crown is not sufficient for that Pio
pose. But if this insufficiency exists, the right lire,
exists; provision for them is due, and ought to be 13
vided for by special law. sill
Such is the right in this question—a right fort ty
established and consecrated by the old principles ood
monarchy, by the law of the 15th of January, 1825►
by that of the 2d of March, 1832.
There is, then, when the question really irises' the
fact to -" of

one fact to ex-mine-- are the private estates 04
King insufficient to make a pro iision for the 1°
branches of his family?" :fiyon

It is more than a century since the Duke of Or--W

canals of Orleans and De Loing, and contracted, ider
purpose of accomplishing these great works, COll

The King, as Duke of Orleans, and as heir is
Regent, has liquidated, since his return to -e"---sss
1814, the last portion of these debts ; and to re:CA, bi
expenses of the Crown and of his family, i"TsoPe

years to pledge to the proper department (le Ca`-see'l°
Depots et Consignations) the remainder of the rem, the

No personal prodigality is proved, either in toe

Her Royal Highness the Princess Adelaide, h 4 Sill;

At the same time, to meet the expenses to w-s.„.

Such is a condition of things, contrary to Old(

nity of the country, as well as that of the Crown' tie!:
In strict right, and in the terms of the 10'11/sill'

It is the dictate of a foreseeing policy, and theo;or
