Glasgow Courier. — 1847-10-12 (Glasgow, Strathclyde, Scotland)

TUESDAY MORNING,•OCTOBER 12.  The Revenue accounts, for the quarter and year ending 9th October, 1847, were made up on Sattirday last, and exhibit an alarming deficiency on all the staple branches of the national aleolne. For the quarter it amounts to no less a sam than £1,503,584, and for the year to £1,042,268. The decrease occurs chiefly in the Customs, the Excise, and the Malt Duties : and various reasons are assigned for it which we have no time to-day to consider. The Chancellor of the Exchequer has still a disposable surplus in the treasury, so that ho will not require to apply to the Bank for Deficiency Bills; but it must be admitted that the prospect before us for the winter is a gloomy one.  It has been officially announced in Paris that the following Ministry has been appointed by the Queen of Spain. The nomination of Nannies to the first post in the government is proof that the French interest still predominates at Madrid : Presidt General  President of the Council and Minister for Foreign Affairs, loners! Narvaea. Minister of the Interior, M. Sartorius. Minister of Finance, M. Orlando. Minister of Public Instruction, M. Roe de Olano. Minister of War, M. Cordova. The ordonnance which constitutes the new Ministry was published in the Gazette of the 4th. Madrid is perfectly tranquil.  The West India steam-packet Teviot arrived at Southampton on Thursday last at mid-day. She brings a Mexican mail, and a freight of upwards of four hundred thousand dollars. Her dates are :—Honduras, 19th August; Tampico, 25th August; Cuba, 3d September; Demerary, 4th; Trinidad, sth; Barbadoes Bth; Jamaica, Bth; Grenada, 9th; La Guayra, 7th; Porto Itico,l2th; St. Thom4l4th; Bermuda, 20th; and Vera Cruz, Ist September. The intelligence brought by this vessel from the West Indies is not of much direct consequence, but a copious abstract of it will be found elsewhere.  The American steam-ship Washington arrived at Southampton on Saturday last from New-York, which port she left on the 2.3 d ult. She brings no additional political intelligence whatever; but it was generally thought in the United States that the Mexican war would be resumed, as the populace were bent on the prosecution of hostilities, and the chiefs had not power to restrain them. The commercial news is, upon the whole, not unfavourable, and no further failures had taken place at New-York. Both shippers and remitters were circumspect, and the Washington has brought home no specie. The money markets generally were easy, but the banks were discounting with great caution.  The money market of London is described by the Times of Saturday as having been considerably easier on Friday, in so "far as actual panic is concerned." On Saturday, according to the Standard, the depression in the public securities continued, but it is satisfactory to learn that towards the close of that day matters rallied somewhat, and that a small amount of business in Exchequer-bills had been done at a trifling premium. Altogether, we would indulge the hope that the worst is now past, though many months must elapse before the effects of the present pressure can be expected to pass away. The public must not, therefore, indulge in too sanguine expectations of an immediate improvement, and must be prepared for the occurrence of a considerable amount of small bankruptcies, as the consequences of the larger failures which have already taken place. These, however, should they happen, will be the mere effects of the old, not the commencement of a new crisis; and we make these few remarks to guard against the prevaiency of such a notion.  The reign of blood has recommenced in Tipperary. In our last publication we recorded the murder of a Mr. Roe, and we now give the following extract from the Limerick Chronicle, which communicates information of the assassination of another landlord:—
