ING QUALITIES TO THE FINEST WAX are now retailed
throughout the Country at One Shilling per lb.
Parties who are in the habit of burning two tallow moulds of four
to the lb., are respectfully requested to make the experiment
whether a single " PRICE'S PATENT CANDLE" of six to the lb.
will not give more light ; and whether, therefore, these Candles do
not afford a cheaper source of light than the commonest tallow
onee, notwithstamding the difference in price per lb.
Care must be taken to ask for them in the shops under the name
given above, as there are some imitations sold under the name" Com-

give some interesting particulars on this point; and,
if they had a particle of decent shame about them,
they would be the very last to have this question
brought before the public eye. But suppoe we
grant that the county rate is a " special burden" on
the land, and how far is it repaid by the corn-law ?
The county rate of 1842 amounted to 43d. par
acre in England and Wales. To compensate the
landowners for this grievous burden, how much
should the corn-law give them in return ? The
tax of 43d. per acre surely cannot require a pro-
tecting duty of 20s. per quarter on the importa-
tion of foreign wheat, nor yet of a fixed duty of Bs.
as proposed by the late Government in 1841, nor
even a " moderate fixed duty" of any amount
above lid. per quarter, supposing each acre to pro-
duce equal to three quarters of grain. Let it be
remembered how small the whole sum of this
" burden" is—that it is paid on buildings and ma-
nufactories as well as on land—that it is levied by
the county magistrates, generally proprietors of
land, and that it is expended entirely by them—
that it is applied chiefly to the maintenance of
roads and bridges, without which land would be
almost valueless, and to the prosecution and
punishment of offenders against the laws made for the
security of property, and largely on account of of-
fences against the game laws made by landowners to
provide amusement for landowners—that it only
amounts to zlid. per acre throughout England and
Wales ;—let all this be remembered, and then imagine
the amount of credulity the man must be blessed
with, who believes this " burden" to require a
corn-law to compensate for it ; or the as-
surance or ignorance of a statesman who can
bring forward this "burden" as a ground for the
continuance of a tax upon the chief article of
human subsistence. It is indeed amazing with how
much coolness these pretences are put forward, as
if the owners of land were the only men who
became acquainted with tax-gatherers. The 700,0001.
collected in county rate is about as much as the
tax levied on cotton, the raw material of our most
important manufacture. For the county rate the
landowner gets roads, bridges, security for property,
value to land ; for the cotton-tax, what do those en-
gaged in the cotton-trade receive ? They have this
tax laid upon them, not to provide roads, and bridges,
and markets, but to go to the general taxation of
the country, and to hang upon them as a dead weight
in the fierce competition they meet with in every
market in the world. To what a wretched condition
are our landed proprietors reduced when they can
stoop so low as to ask for the perpetuation of a bread-
tax on grounds so contemptible as this.
Of the malt duty we have little to say, except
. .

that we deem it in itself an unwise impost, inter-
fering with the carrying on of an extensive depart-
ment of trade, and we would willingly see it abo-
lished. But as a ground for maintaining a tax on
bread, it is not less foolish than that based on the
payment of county-rates. The landowners have
made a law to tax malt, by which beer is made
dearer to the consumer; the demand for barley is
thus, to some extent, lessened, and in this way the
tax is injurious to the landowners ; but as respects
price, it is only injurious to the beer-drinker. The
landowner has no pity for the consumer; it is not for
him he wishes the tax repealed ; but he has great
compassion for his own class ; he proposes, therefore,
to tax the beer-drinker's bread to repay himself for the
injury he suffers from having taxed the beer-drinker's
beer. If the landowners don't like the malt-tax, let
them abolish it; but in the name of all that is just,
don't ask the people to give up tha consumption of
bread because they have already been put upon short
allowance of beer. _

From our hearts we pity any man of ordinary in-
telligence who steps forward to defend the corn-law.
The fraud is so glaring and so wicked that no man
can stand in its defence without damage to his cha-
racter and his influence; and that Lord John Russell
should volunteer as its champion is a wonderful and
a sorrowful passage in the history of one of the
most distinguished families in the ranks of the Bri-
tish peerage.

BOULOGNE AND AMIENS RAIL-

ROAD.

Many persons have applied to us for information
relative to the railroad from hence to Amiens, what
our opinion of it is, as a source of speculation, or a
sure mode of investment, and particularly what inte-
rest it i 3 likely to give. These are questions which,
at the present time, in the present unsettled state of
the differences between the two countries, every wise
man would approach with great diffidence. Every-
thing in France is conducted also on principles sa
different to what we see and are accustomed to in
England ; the people themselves are such a living ex-
ample of their own Champagne, pop to-day, when some
unprincipled journalist touches them on the raw of
their honour and military renown, flat to-morrow
when the effervescence of the moment is gone off, that
no certainty is to be placed in the future, unless,
indeed, the railway companies would combine to
buy up all the war organs, or break the necks of
their editors the first time they travel by them.
Peace might then continue, for it is necessary, in
order that every railroad should pay, particularly
French railroads. Every person, then, thinking of
an investment in foreign railroads, should calculate
upon the probability of peace, if the interest of the
money invested be necessary for his support, unless
he intends to remain in the country where the in-
vestment is made, be there peace, or be there war.
Should peace continue between the two countries,
in our opinion, there is no question as to the
Boulogne and Amiens Railroad returning a good in-
terest. In our numbers of November and December
1842 and 1843, we entered largely upon the question,
giving the returns of what might be expected. Since
then, certainly, circumstances have somewhat changed.
The company will not be aided by Government one
sous ; it was then thought it would make all embank-
ments, bridges, &c., in fine, prepare everything for
laying down the rails, and thus save a company nearly
three-fifths of the ordinary expenses. This is not now
the case. The company must do all; but then, instead
of a lease of 30 years, the" will have one of upwards of
90, but not exceeding 99. this is a material difference in
every point of view. It changes of course the calcula-
tions, but he who examines well the data upon which
our calculations were made, for we took great pains on
the subject, and entered largely into the minutes, will
see at once, though there will not be annually the
same amount of interest realised, there will be a com-
pensation afforded by the tripling of the period during
which it will be received. All this, of course, must
greatly depend upon the friendly relations of the two
countries ; let that continue, the lines from Mar-
seilles to Paris, and from Bordeaux to Orleans be
completed, and such will be the traffic from Amiens
to Boulogne, that none will be dissatisfied with the
result. But add to this the possibility of French
statesmen considering the true interests of the coun-
try, legislating for the good of the nation, and not to
enrich individuals, and imagine a rational treaty of
commerce passed, by which the produce of England
and France would reciprocally pass, at reasonable
duties, from one to the other, then, indeed, would the
Boulogne Railroad, fed by the united streams of all
the railroads of France, pour such a quantity of goods
to the coast, that interest, to content even a miser,
would be realised by all who embarked in it. This,
however, must not be expected so long as needy men
are seeking for places, that the country is sacritied to
selfish opposition, and an unprincipled press leads the
mind of the country astray from its true interests to
be revenged on perfidious England, that onl_y_htlaaulhhes
at their folly and pities their ignorance. W

Government allowed the Bill to go through both Houses

session, and when those members who are lawyers (and

Assize Circuits. Sir Robert and his friends may depend
upon it, they will find this Act passing has put another
nail into their political coffin.
THE COMMERCE or FRANCE.—The Moniteur
publishes the returns of the principal imports of France,
in July last, from which it appears that the ditties
levied thereon amounted to 14,980,828 f., or 3,571,601 f.
more than in 1843, and 3,815,5511. more than in 1842.
The duties levied during the seven months of 1844,
ending on the Ist of August last, amounted to 86,528,2351.
They had been 78,290,650 f. in the corresponding period
of 1842, and 81,328,445 f. in 1843.
