We have reason to believe that the Queen and Prince Albert are likely to pay a visit to Manchester some time during the next summer; in all probability immediately after the termination of the session of Parliament. -4 Manchester Guardian.

It is understood that the address in the Lords will be moved by Lord Bruce, and seconded by Lord Bateman.

The present Baron Auckland (the Earldom being extinct) will be the first Bishop of Sielor and Man who has ever sat in the House of Peers.

Cabinet Councils were held at the Foreign Office on Tuesday and yes- terday. Lord Palmerston had sufficiently recovered from a late accident to be present at both.

The Honourable John Elliot, who was long employed in the civil ser- vice in India, has been appointed one of the Secretaries of the Board of Control, in the place of Mr. Wyse, who has resigued.—Globe.

Dr. Bowring left this country on Saturday, by the Lidus, for Canton. Mr. Fiume, and a number of other political and literary friends, took leave of him on board the Indus.

We regret to announce, by accounts from Mazatlan, under date November 29, that her Majesty's surveying-ship Herald, Captain Kellett, had arrived at that port, from Behring's Straits, without having been able to obtain any intelligence of the expedition under Sir John Franklin.—Tinies.

The ilL,rning Chronicle states "that in consequence of the return home of so many regiments from foreign service, a reduction of 10,000 men will be proposed in the Army Estimates of the ensuing session; the diminution to be made chiefly in the forces now on home service."

The United Service Gazette states that it is in contemplation to amal- gamate the Engineer establishment of Woolwich with that of Chatham.

Mr. Rigby Wason has presented "a New Year's offering" to the inhabi- tants of Ipswich, formerly his constituents, in the shape of "a plan to emancipate the industrious classes in this country from that excessive tax- ation which has been unjustly imposed upon them by those who have made the laws." Although he proposes to keep faith with the public cre- ditor, it would clearly be impossible to obtain any effectual relief without operating on the National Debt. Mr. Cobden proposes to strike off the annual burdens of the country no more than ten millions—only one-fifth; Mr. Macgregor, no more than five millions, or only one-tenth: Mr. Cobden would leave the unjust Inoome-tax "in all its hideous deformity," the Assessed Taxes, the excessive Tobacco-tax, the Stamp-duties, and many other oppressive imposts. Mr. Wason proposes a totally different plan of raising the revenue, without any serious inroad on the efficiency of the public services by arbitrary diminutions of expenditure— "I am not one of those who would diminish to a very great extent our naval and:military force:, ecouomize it as much as you possibly can—alter its consti- tption, so as to give greater facilities for the promotion of deserving subalterns;

but as few think of attacking the powerful, so a well-appointed force is, I believe, the best possible guarantee for pace.

"I will therefore take Mr. Macgregor's and not Mr. Cobden's plan of redaction of expenditure; and he calculates that the Naval, Army, and Ordnance expel. diture might be maintained with full efficiency for 14,250,000/e and he adds about 7,000,0001. for Civil expenses. Well, be it so. This sum of 21,250,00041 would propose should be raised from the articles enumerated in the following ts. ble ; and it will be for you and the people of England to say whether the hides- trious classes would not be benefited, beyond the most sanguine expectations, if the following were the only taxes levied in these realms— Spirits, both Customs and Excise (produced last year) £7,500,000 Tobacco, one-quarter the present duty (which produced last year 4,253,7621.) 1,500,000 Tea, at Is. the pound (Mr. Macgregor's estimate) 3,000,000 Sugar, half present amount (produced last year 4,404.8371.) 9,000,000

Wines, at the lowest duty compatible with highest revenue (Mr Macgregor's estimate) 2,000,000 Legacy-duty, or personal property (produced last year) 2,000,000 Legacy.daty, extended to all other property (Mr. Cobden's esti- mate) 1,500,000 Unredeemed Land-tax 1,200,000 Stamps—striking off, as Mr. Macgregor proposes, from the sum pro- duced last year, those on Marine and Fire Insurances, and on Stage Carriages, 1,507,668/., would leave 6,083,755/. : but these should be equalized and reduced one-half ; or 3,000,000 Post-office—not a proper subject for revenue : its revenue should be expended in increasing accommodation at home and abroad,

instead of narrowing it, which is now often the case.

£24,100,000

That total—say, in round numbers twenty-five millions—would be the annual revenue to be expended on the service of the year. As for the in- terest on the National Debt, Mr. Wason disposes of it by a plan to pay of the Debt! This plan is expounded in three sections. In the first section, he argues "that it is discreditably dishonest not to pay off the debt." In the second section, he shows "that it would be very easy to pay off the debt." " I will take Mr. Macgregor's estimate—as good an authority as any—of the annual value of the realized property in the United Kingdom at 220,000,0001.—it may or may not be exaggerated: I have an ample revenue, and could throw off many millions and yet attain my object of paying off the debt.

" This property is worth from ten to thirty years' purchase, and therefore I will take an average of twenty years. The two hundred and twenty 'Dinh= at twenty years' purchase would produce four billions four hundred and forty mil- lions. [We should call if four thousand four hundred millions.] Many of you will ask, what is a billion? It is a million millions; look at the figures— ' £220,000,000 annual revenue from realized property. 20 years' purchase.

X4,400,000,000 value of realized property. " Now, only five per cent on this sum would produce more than sufficient pay off the National Debt. Five per cent only; and I would give the parties liberty to pay it either at once or by annual instalments spread over ten years, with interest in the mean time at four per cent.

"Now, have I not proved my second proposition—That it would be very ease' to pay off the debt?

"I will not now trouble you with figures, showing how a portion of the debt might be converted into annuities, or how the annual instalments would be ap- plied to the extinction of the debt; these are matters of detail vehich would be easily arranged hymen of business."

The third section shows "that it would be very profitable to pay off the ebt."

"This proposition will be most clearly established merely by a Dr. and Cr. ac- count of an individual contributor, showing what he would have to pay on the one side, and the benefit he would receive on the other; figures which every one of you are capable of checking if erroneous.

1,000/. per annum. This, valued at thirty years' purchase, is 30,0001. His quota of payment would be per cent on this sum, or 1,500/.

"Supposing that he was unable to pay this sum, he would have either to sell a portion of his land or borrow the money, or pay it off by annual instalments in ten years, with four per cent interest until it was paid. "Some would prefer one mode and some another. There would not be-the least difficulty in borrowing the money at four per cent, probably less, in cons.- queue of the number of those fundholders, who, being paid off, would desire an- other investment, without purchasing land. "By the subjoined table you will see that if he borrowed the money at four per cent, his annual interest would be GO/. per annum; and on the other side you will see that at this moment he annually pays 60/. on three articles in direct taxation.

"You see he would be no loser if he paid only the above taxes' and they were repealed when he was assessed five per cent, to pay off the debt: but you well know the large sum an individual with 1,0001. per annum pays for taxes on are tides in the list I have enumerated, and which would be reduced to such an extent!

"Then consider these articles—malt, hops, soap, paper, wood, insurance-stamp, &c.—the duty on which would entirely cease; and what a sum he would save in consequence of those he employs having their taxes so much reduced! In dimi- nished poor's-rates alone, the inevitable result of the employment necessarily con-

sequent upon such a measure, he would save a large sum. • 4F * "If the National Debt was fairly paid off, land and every description of property would rise enormously in value. Forty years' purchase would be more easily ob- tained with no debt than thirty years' as at present; and if this were so, then deducting the 601. per annum which he has paid for his contribution, his 9401. per annum would at forty years' purchase produce 37,6001., or 7,6004 more than its present value." [The: fundholder would be in the same position: also the holder of railway property.]

"Five per cent upon property would take from the party whose case I have stated in the preceding pages 501. per annum; and he would still be loaded with his share of other taxes to the amount of forty-one millions. By the plan I pro-

pose would only pay 60/. per annum—the country freed from the National Debt, and himself only liable for his share of a taxation very little exceeding twenty millions. And then how easily the five per cent might be doubled or trebled!"

The Economist devotes ten or twelve columns of its last two numbers to an elaborate setting forth of the public expenditure, comprising what may be regarded as the Ministerial answer to Mr. Cobden's demand for "the expenditure of 1835." Alas for the "ten millions "1—the expert arithme: tician of the Economist brings it down to four by a wave of his pen. Thils is his general summing up- " The entire net expenditure of 1.847 was 54,502,9484 and of 1836 44422,7224; showing a difference of 1,0,180,226/. But in this difference is included, as we fuer "Take the case of a person possessed of landed property, with a rental of Da.

explained in the progress of our observations-1. The amount granted for Irish distress; 2. The cost of the Caffre war; 3. The cost of the new establishments connected with the Post-office for the American, West Indian, and other foreign mails; 4. New works in our home establishments; 5. The increase in the scien- tific department of the Navy; 6. The increase of miscellaneous expenditure con- nected with civil government; and 7. The increase in the courts of justice, caused study by the recent establishment of County Courts; all of which are either acci- dental and extraordinary causes of expenditure, or arising from new institutions which did not exist in 1835. The following summary shows the net increase be- tween the two periods in question, which is applicable to the annual expenditure of the Army, Navy, and Ordnance, as they now exist, in comparison with 1835—

Net expenditure in 1847 £54,502,948

Net expenditure in 1835 44,422,722

Excess New and extraordinary expenditure.

1. Granted for Irish distress £1.525,000 2. The cost of the Caffre war 1,100,000 3. American, West Indian, and foreign malls, included in naval expenditure 773,360 4. New works 686,161 5 Increase in scientific establishment of Navy 55,805 6. Miscellaneous charges—increase as explained 1,579,317

7. Courts of Justice charged on Consolidated Fund—

increase 616,099 8. Increase paid on unclaimed dividends 35,227 9. Increase of sundries on Consolidated Fund 19,597 -- 6,386,566 But as the whole cost of the Debt was less in 1847 than in 1835, the difference must be deducted, viz 373,079 Leaves excess 4,066,739

"From this it appears, that of the 10,080,2261. of excess in the expenditure of 1847 over that of 1835, 4,066,7391. is attributable to the annual increased cost of maintaining the Army, Navy, and Ordnance, in their present condition, in com- parison with that in which they were in 1835; and that if these establishments could be reduced immediately to the same level as in that year, a surplus of 4,066,739/. would be available for other purposes, and not of 10,000,0001., as has been stated. From the entire excess of 1847 we must deduct a sum of 6,013,4871., as applicable to charges of an accidental or an entirely new descrip- tion since 1835, and wholly separate from the increased cost of the future main- tenance of the Army, Navy, and Ordnance; and therefore, in our further re- searches into this interesting ,and important subject, we must treat the difference of the two periods in question, in relation to reduction and economy in these great branches of the public service, as being four millions and not ten millions." And alas for the prospects of a repeal of the Malt-tax, which Mr. Cob- den held out as a bait to the farmers !—the Economist shows that the notion is altogether heretical on Free-trade principles; and moreover, . . . "that neither the farmer nor the landlord has any interest in the re- peal of the Malt-tax, except so far as they and their dependents are consumers of beer. . . . And we have no hesitation in saying, that if duties are to be reduced or repealed, with a view to increased consumption, and to administer to the com- forts of the great masses of the people, there are many articles which will be se- lected in preference to malt."

The Ezamister, grieving at Mr. Cobden's recent deviation from "the excellent temper and candour" with which he waged the great Corn-law controversy, makes the following reflections on his Budget project—

"Is the ten millions to be an article of faith? Does Mr. Cobden claim infalli- bility in fixing on that precise sum, and is any opinion short of it delusion and knavery? What if some one else should spring up and propose a relief of fifteen or twenty millions, and denounce Mr. Cobden as a cheat and betrayer for endea- vouring to make the public content with such a peddling retrenchment as one of ten millions. This sort of patriotism in round numbers costs nothing, and always lies open to an easy outbidding, as Regan outstrips Goneril in disquantitying Lear's train.

"Mr. Cobden has achieved one great service; he has been the emancipator of trade, as O'Connell was the emancipator of Catholics: but let him beware of the parallel to the next stage of O'Connell's career—the proposal of the impracticable, followed by disappointment, and by agitations and commotions far outrunning anything contemplated in the original scheme. It is for Mr. Cobden to have a care that the ten millions saving, with something more behind, be not another Repeal project. Mr. O'Connell, from the hour that he devoted himself to the im- possible Repeal, neglected and disdained all moderate and feasible reforms, and treated as 'the trail of the red herring' any course of conduct the aim of which was not the end beyond reach. "Mr. O'Connell, too, proposed to sink all differences and to unite all discon- tents in a cave of Adullam, especially inviting his old foes the Orangemen to join. And so, too, we see Mr. Cobden bidding for the farmers with the bait of the re- peal of the Malt-tax, and, strange to say, declaring, 'We owe the farmers some- thing, and we will try to repay them in kind.' He owes the farmers something Why, how often have we heard and read Mr. Cobden's arguments to prove that the repeal of the Corn-laws would be a benefit to the farmers? Was that the 'trail of a red-herring'; a pretence or delusion? Or is the present declaration, that the farmers have a claim to relief in respect of the abolition of the Corn-laws, a deceit and asiuire? Certain it is that the two averments cannot be reconciled; but the one has done its work, the other serves for the nonce."

The Morning Post, however, has taken some pains to show, by ample ex- tracts from his old speeches, that Mr. Cobden's style of discussion, in re- spect of the imputation of unworthy motives or dishonest objects, has by no means deteriorated.

Mr. Dugdale, who was accidentally shot in the face by one of his sons, is making favourable progress; but he has totally lost the sight of one eye.

A paragraph has gone the round of the papers during the last week, detailing the particulars of the elopement and marriage of a young nobleman—a resident, it is said, of this neighbourhood (Enville)—to a young woman of great personal attractions, but of humble rank in life whose parents reside at Cambridge, where the intimacy was formed some twelve or eighteen months since, while his Lord- ship was pursuing his studies at that University. We believe that the nobleman referred to is the Earl of Stamford and Warrington; and that the youthful pair, after their marriage, proceeded to pass the honeymoon in Italy. The affair, as may be supposed, has been the occasion of much surmise and not a little animad- version; but we believe that the young lady is very amiable and accomplished, and that her parents are respectable inhabitants of Cambridge, but lacking the gifts of rank and fortune, both of which have been now acquired by the distinguished alliance of one of the wealthiest of the nobility of this country.—Birmingliam JournaL An Austrian police notice thus describes the celebrated Hungarian leader Kos- suth—ft Forty-Eve years of age; place of nativity Jasperin, in Hungary; married; not a Catholic by religion; speaks German, Hungarian, Latin, Slowakish, and French; was a lawyer and a journalist, and finally President of the Committee of Defence; is of middle size, and thin; face oval and tolerably full; brown com- plexion; high open forehead; black hair; blue prominent eyes; large dark eye- molt's; flat noses small and handsomely-formed mouth; good teeth; oval chin;

Some days ago, at one of the sittings of the famous Falloux Committees, of which M. Thiers is President, M. Thiers said that France was not sufficiently rich to give instruction to all her children; and he added many other things equally generous. M. Cousin, who for some time had shown evident signs of impatience, interrupted him all at once—" 51. Thiers," said he, "I am sorry to remind you of

it, but you forget that you were bonnier (a pupil educated partially or wholly at the public expense). As to myself, who owe the same gratitude as you to my country, I shall always remember it. If France had not been rich enough to pay the expense of our education, we should neither of us perhaps be what we are.'' H. Thiers did not reply.—National.

M. d'Ussel, former page of Louis the Fifteenth, Lieutenant-Colonel of the Sixth Regiment of Dragoons in 1794, and created Baron of the Empire by Napoleon, died at Flayat on the 15th instant; aged one hundred and two.

Mr. Andrew Kinloch, the first man who ever weaved at a power-loom, died in Manchester last week; having reached his ninetieth year. The Manchester

Examiner mentions some interesting facts in his biography—"In 1793, he set up the first power-loom in Glasgow; with which, the propelling power being his own hand, he managed, after an outlay of one hundred guineas, toproduce about ninety yards of cloth. This sum, we may explain, was jointly subscribed for the experi- ment by four members of the Glasgow Chamber of Commerce. Shortly afterwards, Andrew got the loom conveyed to Milton Printfield, at Dumbuck ; where forty looms on the same principle were erected under his special direction. These machines, with the exception of a few slight improvements, remain as they were, and at the present day may be seen working at Pollockshaws and Paisley. He left for England in the year 1800, and was employed in setting up similar looms in different towns in Lancashire. The first looms set up by him in England were at Staleybridge, near Manchester. Fifteen of these in a short time were removed from that place to Westhoughton ; where they remained till the year 1812, when the hand-loom weavers of the neighbourhood, jealous of their iuterests being af- fected by the new invention, attacked the factory and burned it to the ground, along with 170 looms and other materials on the premises. Andrew believed the weavers would have burned himself had they got hold of him. He had other narrow escapes with his life in different parts of England and Scotland."

A Jew miser, Levi Abraham, a native of Poland, has just died in Wellington, at an advanced age. He bad got a living by mending umbrellas and selling trinkets, and he was looked on as an object of charity. But on his death when he was attended by Dr. Raphall and other Hebrew gentlemen, he pulled from his bosom 1,000/. in bank-notes' and stated that he was worth as much

more in money and goods. He left the bulk of his property to a brother and sister who are living abroad on charity, and he was induced to bequeath 201. to a Hebrew school at Birmingham, and the like sum to the poor-box of the synagogue.

Mr. W. J. Vellum, who for the second time was fulfilling the office of Mayor of Hartlepool, has been drowned in the docks of that port. He had gone out at night for a walk, and it would seem that he fell from a quay into the water of the Victoria Dock ; his hat was seen floating, and a man picked it up ; but, not sus- pecting that anything was amiss, he did not mention the matter till the following

day, when he inquired if any master of a ship had lost the hat. Mr. Vellum's body was found near the place where the hat was discovered. The deceased was a wealthy man, and much respected.

The Swansea Herald reports large gatherings of Mormons at Merthyr. "Cap- tain Dan Jones" was chairman. The delusion spreads. During the last six

months there have been—" conferences, 10; baptized, 1,001; total baptized in the year, 1,939 (very few excluded); 70 branches, 156 elders; 180 priests, 147 teach. ers, 67 deacons—in all, .550 officers." "The thousands of Mormons in Wales pear to have great affection for and confidence in Captain Dan Jones, who intends returning in February to the valley of the Salt Lake in California. About 350 saints intend emigrating with him. It appears that 300 large ships could scarcely carry the hosts of saints who are now anxiously desiring to emigrate from the island to (as they say) their future home."

Mr. Steel, a spirit-merchant of Elmsall, near Ferrybridge, has shot a highway-, man, in self-defence. As Mr. Steel was returning at night from Wakefield mar-

ket, where he had been cuileating money, two men appeared before him, making

exclamations which betrayed their purpose: Mr. Steel cocked a pistol, put his. horse to a gallop, and escaped from the fellows, who attempted to seize the bridle.

A little while after, another man rushed on him, and struck him with a bludgeon, knocking him from his horse; the villain then prepared to strike Mr. Steel over the head, but the latter shot him in the shoulder. Mr. Steel then remounted his horse, and made off, just as the other two robbers came up.

Some new applications of gun-cotton have been made. "Gun-cotton dissolved in ether has for some time been very successfully employed, under the name of collodion, as an application to incised wounds and cutaneous abrasions. When washed over the surface, the ether, rapidly evaporating, leaves behind a film which is impervious to air; and thus the wound, protected from atmospheric influeace,

heals by the first intention. But now we find this curious compound employed successfully in the cure of the toothache. The cavity of the tooth being cleaned out, a little asbestos saturated with collodion, to which a little morphia is added, is placed in it. All soon becomes solid, and than an exoellent stopping and a powerful anodyne are applied at the same time." A curious match is to take place at Blackburn, for a sum of money, to test the relative excellence of two patented improvements in power-looms a number of looms of each kind are to be worked side by side, and the quantity and quality of the cloth produced will decide the wager.

Essex was visited with a violent hurricane and thunderstorm on Sunday. At. Halstead, an alarm was raised that the church-steeple was falling, and the con- gregation rushed out in great terror: the vane had merely been twisted from tint perpendicular by the wind.

The sea continues to make encroachments at Dover on the esplanade and Ord- nance ground, though efforts have been used to prevent it. As there are houses built close to the sea in this part, some method of staying the progress of the waters will be absolutely necessary. At the other extremity of the town, on Mon?, day morning, some 100,000 tons of chalk fell from the Shakspere Cliff, leaving indentation ndentation of about an acre.

The schooner Golden Eagle having been disabled by a collision with the ship Emigrant, in the Mersey, sank at the Seacombe Slip. Among the cargo were a number of turtle- some were got on shore, but several of the largest and strongest took the opportunity of paddling away. The Liverpool Albinos remarks natural historians and epicures may now have an opportunity of ascertaining whether the creatures can become acclimated in our waters and thrive and ma crease there.

A letter from an officer on board of her Majesty's ship Plumper, dated at sea, 1st January 1849, to a relative in Bath, quoted in Keene's Bath Journal, reports

another sight of the sea-serpent. "Yesterday morning I was at the mast-head,

looking out for the squadron; when what should I see but a long black thing itr the water. I hastened on deck and told the captain. He looked at it, and found il was the great sea-serpent. He immediately called the officers and men out to sea it. It came close to us, holding its head about two feet out of the water, and we could see about fifteen to twenty feet a little out of water. It had kind of maw on its back, and a white breast; a very ugly. looking beast, very much resembling the picture in the Illustrated London News, only the head was sharper. Two artists have taken sketches of it, and I will bring one with me when I come home."

The Plymouth monster ox, fed by Mr. Elliott, at Llandulph, chiefly on grass and hay, for he would eat no grain and but little roots, stood six feet 3 inches high, ridge of the back; live weight, 27i cwt., equal to 3,108 lbs.; dead, 2,104 lbs.; and is said to have lost / cwt. during the time of exhibition, which would make his live weight from the farm 3,164 lbs. Have we anything on record above this?—.Mark Lane Express.

The Orerkind China Mail, of Hongkong, gives a curious instance of the va- riation in official orders which may occur through translation. The following order was issued by Sir John Davis— "No person except the Ilarbour master can board a junk or vessel without the con- sent of the master, unless he Is armed with a warrant and accompanied by a con- stable."

Upon examination of the Chinese official transhition, the passage was found to have been thus rendered-

" The Harbour-master, and persons carrying warrants, and policemen, have power to board vessels : it there be MCII, and the captain does not want them to enter the 'Vessel, then Ile may be able to obstruct and stop them." In comment on this farrago, the editor of the China Mail quotes some more amusing parallels from a French translation of Guy Mannermy, which he had met with. "Sir Walter Scott speaks of Dominic Simpson as a ' stickit stibbler '; that is, a minister who has stuck in his career or in his discourse. A French translator renders this un ministre assassine' '—a minister stuck with a ven- geance. Again, in the same novel, Dandie Dinmont is told that i it has just dlappit ancht on the Tron,' that is, the Tron Church bell has just struck eight. This is rendered in French, ' II eat huit heures' et le roi est sur son trine '—which being translated into English, means 'It is eight o'clock, and the King is on his throne'; the writer probably being led away by a confused notion that the hour bad something to do with Paulus Pleydell being at that time engaged in perform- ing the part of King in Iligh Jinks."

The cholera returns for the past week give the following results. London— cases, 57; deaths, 33. The Provinces—cases, 150; deaths, 65. Scotland— cases, 927; deaths, 386. No case has occurred at the Tooting pauper school daring the week. The total deaths of children in or from this establishment have been 182. In the Provincial returns the Gateshead cases are from the 8th instant-47 cases ; 23 deaths. In Scotland the mortality is greatest at Glasgow, Old Monkland, and Biccarton.
