THE REVENUE.

In the STAR of yesterday we gave, cxclusively, an ac•
count of the flourishing state of the Revenue, as exhi-
bited by the Returns for the Quarter ending last even-
ing, and we now present our Readers with the Official'
Documents on the subject. We stated that there was
an apparent deficiency in the Customs of upwards of
£96,000, and it will be seen that it is £98,350, and
that the apparent decrease on the Quarter is £400,080,
which is accounted for by our having paid upwards of
£400,000 out of the Customs received in the present
Quarter to the holders of the stock of raw and manufac-
tured silk, when the duties on that article were reduced.
There has been also, as we stated yesterday, a reduc-
tion of taxes to the amount of £150,000 in the Olsstoms,
which would otherwise have come into the account. It will
be seen, by referring to the details, that there is an in-
crease in the Excise, for the Quarter just ended, over that
of the corresponding Quarter last year, of £344,400;
in the Stamps of £71,577 ; and in the Post-Office of
£14,000. The inctease in the Excise is principally on
Malt, Foreign Spirits, Hides and Skins, Paper, Printed
Goods, Auctions, Hops, Tea, and Wine. The decrease
is almost exclusively on articles where duties have been
repealed. The surplus of the income over the charge
on the Consolidated Fund, for the Quarter which
terminated yesterday, is £1,127,209; and the total Re-
venue for the year is £.50,412,592. Thus it will be
seen that the Returns are highly gratifying, and we
feel much pleasure in adding that the Returns from
Ireland are also very satisfactory, there being an in-
crease on every article of Revenue. The following
are the Official Returns on which our observations are
founded :

In a preceding column we have given some further
details of the recent events in Peril, in which the Spa.
nish Royalists have gained some important advantage,.
They, however, may be considered as merely the corn.
mencement of a campaign which will in all probabil:tf
decide the fate of one of the South American State.,
DOLMA n, though not a great General, is a prudent one,
and with a force of 12,000 men, most of whom have
long served under him, w ill make a desperate efiw.:
before he gives up Peru, even although he may be
baffled by treachery, and by the supioeness or
cowardice of the Peruvians. The next an ival will p: a•
bably bring some important intelligence from Lin: a,
wnich is destined to become the theatre of militery
operations.

This forenoon we received, by a German Mail, t! e
Austrian Observer to the 24. th ult.and Frankfort P:tre:i
to the 29th. The latter contain some interesting in%i•
ligence from Greece.
