THE QUARTER'S 'REVENUE.

As the accounts of the Revenue for the Quarter ending
to-day will not be made up until a late hour this even-
ing, we shall not be enabled to present the official
returns until to-morrow. We &an, however, state.
that they will be found highly satisfactory, and furnish'
a new proof of that steady march in prosperity which
this country is making—a prosperity which covers, by
a constantly increasing Revenue, all the reductions in
taxation, extensive as they have been.
,In the Returns of the Quarter just ended, the relative
proportions of the Customs and Excise Duties to each
other, will exhibit a considerablichange, in consequence
of a large amount of the Excise Duties having been
transferred to the Customs, pursuant to a regulation of
the present Session.
In the Customs there is, allowing for the reductions,
a very gratifying increase. The amount of the Customs
for the Quarter ending sth July,l 824,was 1,997,0701. and
that fur the Quarter ending to-day, is about 3,918,000!.
exhibiting an increase of £1,920,930 ; but then from
this sum we must deduct £1,800,000, which is about
the sum-of Excise duties that have been transferred to
the Customs, acrd vie shall still have an actual increase
of about i:1510,000 int the present Quarter, over tf.e cor-
responding Quarter of the last year, in the Customs alone.
This sum, added to the 89,6591. increase on the last
Quarter, will make an excess of the Customs of the
bail year, of upwards of 200,0001. over the first six
months of the last year.
In the Excise; we believe the Returns still be found
equally gratifying; but we should not omit to notice
one circumstance, which must have operated in some
degree to reader the Revenue less productive than k
.would otherwise have been. We allude to the strike of
the operative workmen in. several trades, which has
not only prevented our manufacturers from exe-
cuting large orders for exportation, on which Customs
would have been paid, but it has also led to privations
on the part of the operative:, which must have consi-
derably lessened the consumption of Excise articles.
Still we repeat, the Returns of the Revenue will be
found particularly cheering, and prove- the solid basis
on which the piosperity of Great Britain is founded.

This forenoon we received the Attrentherg Corre-

FRONTIOS OF ITATA, JUNE 11.
The latest accounts from Albania. give recent intel-
ligence from. Etolia and Livadia. The following are
.the principal facts which they furnish:
Redschid Pacha has already inundated all Etolia
with his troops, as far as to the North side of the Gulf
of Patras, whence he has made himself master of the
road from that place to Lepanto (along ti e coast), and
thus. opened himself a communication with that place.
It is inconceivable why the Greek ships, which block-
aded Patras by sea till after the beginning of May, have
left the coast, and gone td Cape Papas, where they.
cruise partly on the coast of Etolia, and partly on that
of the Morea, as far as to Cape Tor nese? It is affirmed,
that the reason of this operation was the news of the
speedy arrival o' an Algerine squadron in the Gulf of
Lepanto, to support the operations of Redschid Pacha.
The latest accounts, however, say that no such squadron
had app ared mete. Meantime, ltedschid Pacha coma
muntcited with Jusauff Pacha, Governor of Fatal
whom he had urged to send for some heavy artillery,
with the necessary ammunition, to bombard Misso.
lonßhi and Anatolico. Redschid had not taken any
sortth him on his expedition; and part of his field artil-
lery, and a large convoy with anamunition„ which fol-
lowed hint, has been taken by the Greek marauding

parties.
No great fears were entertained at Missolonghi, as
the sea is open, and the place cannot be taken, unless
blockaded on the sea side, and the Turks besides
are nut vet)! skilful, and have n.,t the means of l
pressing the siege with vigour. As they had ap-
proached Missolunghi in considerable numbers, Stour.
naris, the Governor, had made a sally, with a con-
siderable force, defeated the Turks, and driven them
'several leagues from the fortress.

Isko has collected a ccursiderahle force in the mountains
and does the Turks much injury. While one part of
this army observes the motions of the Thessalian army,
the other has approached L-panto, and is endeavouring
to penetrate towards the eastern frontiers of Etolia, and
open a communication with Anatolico and Missolonghi.
Ibrahim's situation in the Morerthas not improved. His
efforts ate principally directed to maintaining himself
in his position, till the Captain Pocha shall bring him
aid. Navarino is, in his power, but the fortifications of
that place are destroyed.

Just as our PApTr was going to press, we received
Hamburgh Papers to the 28th June, and Dutch Papers
to the gd instant. The Emperor of Russia has ordered his
Ambassador to the Papal See, to distribute MOO sables annually
among the Russian artists starlyilig in Rome. _
The Heaviest: Char ant, of the td inst. contains the following
article :—" Some German Papers say that the heads of the house
of Mystics:La will shortly meet together, either in Paris or Lon-
don. As this house has had an important part in the principal
financial operations during some years pant, it is no wonder that most
persons ascribe this intended meeting net to family matters, but to the
necessity of arranging preparatory measures for the purpose of being
able, In cue of need, to carry into execution a plan of effecting the
reduction of the French Ream (which has not yet been much ad-
vented by the voluntary conversion), by an eventual repayment ef

New York Papers have reached us to the 9th, and
Philadelphin Papers to the 6th of June ; wit► Papers from New
Orleans to the 16th, and from Montreal to the ends of May.
One of the New Orleans Papers states, that a body of 1500 Mexican
iroopaltad been sent to Yucatan to quell some disorders, and that
General Sarum bad been deprived of his command.
An extraordinary jealousy of Mexico seems to be felt in the
United States, perhaps on account of its proximity—but soothing

sant ; and now t►ey are net satisfied when the Government is Re-'
publican. One tithe New Toth Papers says, the Treaty between
Great Britain and Mexico was unpopular with the people of the
latter country, because '4 it exacts from the Mexican Government
the free toleration of religion, the cession of the Californias, &c."
It adds, that these stipulations are denied in the Government
Papers, and we should have felt surprised had they not, for
nothing can be more unfounded; the Mexican Government Is too
liberal to refuse to just and necessieY a tight as the free toleration
of religion, and the British Government too liberal to exact as the
price of its amity, a cession of territory.
These papers confirm the account of the mutiny of a body of
Mexican troops stationed at the island of Sactificios, on the 30th
of April, when they pot their Ulcers to death. The Mexican
General In the tkighbouthood of Vera Crux lost no time in march-
ing against the mutineers, who had hoisted the Spanish flag. They
were compiDed to surrender; twenty of the ringleaders were
executed the first day, and ether executions bad followed.
