LONDON :
MONDAY MORNING. DECEMBER 26, 1842.

The Christmas feast, prepared for the people
by Sir ROBF.RT PEEL, is the Income-tax. They
do not seem, however, much to relish it, and
make sundry wry faces as they endeavour against
their' Witl to bolt it. They believe, perhaps, like
good Clkildren,"that it is very nice, but to swallow
it goes very much against them. What can the
Government do, it is asked, without an addition
to its i‘evenuep: Simple-minded men—but they
are ,noVwortby of consideration—say, reduce its
expenditure, draw in some of the many arms
Bich it.spreads out to every part of the world,
Ova okyiAlichcarries off some of the national
strengshq.dry up some of the numerous issues at
twomeAsuch as. wasteful pensions, unnecessary
coattnßOOnS, unneeded soldiery, from which flow
rtikvay othlvitalkPevver, and restrain many of those
Vitus'-itittiee'like Meddling exertions, which pro-
duce n4_ thing but the exhaustion of the body
politic. 'Counsellors of this. policy are regarded
as persons wholly, unacquainted with the true
nature ‘o€ government ; they look on it as some-
thing intended'for the public benefit, whereas it
is, as actually conducted, for the enrichment of
certahl-Classes, and to restrict its revenue would
be to ail as to that end. Therefore, as the ex:
pense "must be continued, asindirect taxation can•
no longer be increased, people reluctantly receive
the Income-tax, and with some. lamentation and
genie grumbling, they seem to take on the
whole -with thankfulness, Sir ROBERT PEEL'S
ChriStritaS feast.

Haviq on principle no strong objection to an
IncomeLtax,
_properly and judiciously levied, it
'vas our opinion from the first that if Sir ROBERT
PEEtilound such a tax indispensable, it was his
• business to adapt the law to our present circum-
4stanesL'and levy such a tax in a reasonable

:VEISCIELL/IDTEO US.

Earl de Grey, Lord Lieutenant of Ireland, will be
nominated to supply the vacancy in the Order of the
Garter, occasioned by the death of the Marquis
Wellesley.
A meeting of the Commissioners for the Reduction
of the National Debt was held yesterday in the
Treasury.
The original works published in Russia and Poland
during 1841, were 717, the translations 54. The
foreign books imported were only 540,000: the pie.
tures, engravings, pieces of music, &c., 996,935.

MONEY and COMMERCIAL NEWS.
CITY, QUARTER TO TIJREE.
The English funds have exhibited more buoyancy
than they have done for some time past, and a greater
disposition for business has been evinced by the
jobbers. Consols have advanced to 93i 93i for
Money, and 93i 93f for the Account, with
an appearance of great firmness. Three per
Cents. Reduced, 924 92k; Three-and-a-Half per
Cents. Reduced, 100 k 100 k ex div. ; India Stock,
2501 2511 ; India Bonds, 47; and Exchequer Bills,
Old, 57, New, 55 57 prem.
Foreign Securities have been wholly neglected and
without business ; prices, however, are to be quoted
nominally as yesterday.
The quotation for Mexican. bonds has slightly
improved, but the fact of to-day being the half-
monthly settlement has precluded any extensive trans-
actions. The Tay has brought over 18,000 dollars
on account of the dividends, which will make about
25,0001. sterling now in the hands of the agents, to
be applied to this purpose. They have been sold at
33 for Money, but are now quoted 32i and 33 for the
Account.

But little has been done in the Share Market,
prices :in which are rather better. Great Western,
New, 60+ ; South Western, 57A ; South Eastern,
224 • the Scrip, 111; Eastern Counties, 10i; and
Brighton, 36+.

The only Bonds noticed in the lists to-day are
Spanish Three per Cents., 20-i.
Neither the mercantile letters by the Great
Western or the Tay add any new fact to those pre-
viously received, which is to be accounted for by the
short interval which has elapsed between the sail-
ing of those and the former vessels. Trade in
America is stated to be quite as unsettled now
as it was before• passing the tariff, inasmuch as it
is almost certain that one of the first proceedings
of Congress will be to modify the present Bill.
The late favourable intelligence from the West In-
dies is fully confirmed by these letters.

of this agreeable Watering-place, and is near the Theatre,

an excellent Table d'Hote every day at a Quarter-past Five.
A great variety of Wines at moderate prices ; and the Bed-
rooms and Sitting-rooms are uncommonly clean and convenient.
Persons wishing to pass a few weeks at the Sea-side will
find every convenience at this Hotel ; the expenses are even
smaller than in private apartments, and only about one-half the
amount charged at many fashionable watering-places.
Good Stabling.
*..0 No Commissioner being employed on board the packets,
travellers will find prices the more moderate. The recommen-
dations of Commissioners on board the steamers should be par-
ticularly guarded against.

DRAWING FROM MODELS.
SOUTHWARK LITERARY INSTITUTION.
MR. GANDEE, Professor of Perspective, Draw-
ing, &c., will deliver a Lecture at the LITERARY
INSTITUTION, BOROUGH-ROAD, SOUTHWARK,
on the NEW SYSTEM of DRAWING, on FRIDAY Evmx-
ING NEXT, September 9, 1842, at a Quarter past Eight.
The object of this Lecture is to explain the new and success-
ful method of teaching Perspective, &c., from Models. The
adoption of the simultaneous mode gives the opportunity to
large numbers to learn this highly useful and interesting art at
a very trifling expense.
Drawings done by Tradesmen, Mechanics, and others, who
have studied upon this plan, will be exhibited on the occasion.
Tickets for the Lecture, 6d. each, may be obtained at the
Institution.

PREPARATIONS AT TAYMOUTH.

Ever since it was known that her Majesty and her
Royal Consort were to honour famed Breadalbane with
a visit, tradesmen and labourers of every class and grade
have been employed, from grey dawn to dusk, in
putting every thing in and around the princely Castle
of Taymouth in a state of preparedness worthy of its
noble proprietor, and, it is trusted, of the Royal visi-
tors. Triumphal arches are being erected at all the
approaches to and from the castle, as well as at each
end of Kenmore-bridge, which nobly spans the infant
Tay, and at the pier at Acharn, two miles distant from
Kenmore, where her Majesty is expected to land from
her excursion on the lake, when she visits the far-
famed Falls of Acharn—the hermitage and approach
to which have undergone scrubbing for the purpose.
A party of 200—it is even said of 250—brawny
Highlanders, in full Highland costume, are to assemble
at Taymouth on Friday, the 2d, and are to be
put in training for forming her Majesty's guard
of honour during her stay. They are directed to
appear provided with full camp accoutrements, and
are to have their bivouacs there till she leaves on the
9th. The tenants and other visitors are also requested
to come provided each with his quaich (cup) to join
in drinking to her Majesty's health—the beverage,
best mountain dew of course, is to be provided by
the Noble Marquis. Such huzzas, we are sure, the
Highland hills never reverberated to before. Four
platforms, 20 by 24 feet, are also to be erected on
the lawn in front of the Castle, where her Majesty
will witness " Tullochgorum' " and other national
dances, in all their peculiar evolutions and variorums,
tripped with all the characteristic airiness of High-
landers. It is not supposed that Prince Albert, as
has been reported, will go to the Black Mount
Forest—the shortness of the stay of the Royal party
indeed precludes the possibility of it, if he is to in-
dulge in any spert around Taymouth. It is rather
expected that he will spend one day at grouse-shoot-
ing in Taymouth and Kenmore hills, and another at
deer and roe-hunting in Drummond Hill.

We understand that the Highland gentlemen have
arranged triumphal arches along the road by which
her Majesty will progress from Perth to Kenmore.
From Rannoch to Aberfeldy there will be nearly 600
Highlanders in full costume, who will meet at Ken-
more. From Atholl to Dunkeld there will be an
eqUal number of Highlanders, headed by Lord Glen.
lyon, and Fascally, Balnakeilly, Lude, &c. The
Atholl men, so much admired at the tournament, have
been greatly augmented in force, and will be com-
manded by Lord Glenlyon and his brother, the Hon.
Captain James Murray. It is expected that the
Queen will come from Scone, by the bridge of Isla,
through Meikleour, to Dunkeld, and lunch with the
Duchess of Athol. This is probable, from the great
attachment uniformly evinced by the Athol family to
the Crown. The whole Societies of Dunkeld go
along with the Highland bands ; and all, we believe,
will meet in the home grounds of the Athol family.
