TUE NATFON.L FINANcEs.—In answer to a question
whether the 'Chancellor of the Exchequer designed to
adhere to theirinciple he had announced, of making the
Year's income 'meet its expenditure, • and if not, and lie

intended to .have recourse to a loan, to what extent he
meant to do sc.—The CICANCELLOR of the EXCIEEQUER
said that The ezpectations which belad held out in May
were fully realised. The national expenditure, up to the
9th of the -present month, had not exceeded the income.
There was an apparent decrease upon the last quarter,
but it did not represent the real condition of our finances,
because it omitted the return of the Irish revenue, and
because the last return contained an item of credit which
properly belonged to the present quarter. As regarded
Exchequer-beds, L 1,000,000 had. leen negotiated, and
£3,000,000 had been actually received, While power was
still reserved to the government to issue from £6,000,000
to £7.000,000 more, and the amount of running Exche-
quer-bills was :about sixteen millions and a-half. The
present excess of ,expenditure over revenue, as compared
with last year; was about three millions and a-half, but he
anticipated that there would be in October a balance of
about four millions and a-half, and with that amount in
hand he did not-suppose that he should have to ask the
Bank of Englandlor advances. He added a satisfactory
statement in regard to the savings banks, upon which, he
said, there had been a demand, to meet which precautions
had been taken ; but the run had ceased, and the amount
of withdrawals was now exceeded by that of deposits.
Several bills were read a third time and passed, and the
Lords' amendments-to other bills were agreed to.

Bryan TYNE -hIPROVEMENT. On the motion of
Mr. W. S. LINDSAY, the house agreed to an address to
Her Majesty, praying that she will be graciously pleased
to appoint a commission to inquire into the present state
of the River Tyne (one of the highways-for navigation
under the protection of Her Majesty), whether the
encroachments on the tidal water of that fiver by jetties,
embankments, and other works executed and proposed on
the banks thereof have -not injured the navigation, and
will not continue to counteract the plans for-removing the
sand banks at the month of the river, and otherwise injure

`THE SUSPENDED WRITS.

Sir WmLux JOLIFFE moved the issuing of new writs

these writs, to make provision for taking these 'otes by

gatived by 42 to 35.
