ERRORS IN THE CIVIL LIST.

THERE. was an error in two items in our last week's exposition of the Civil List, caused by out having followed the Report of the Com- mittee, instead of the Act of Parliament ; which last, we knew from n general remembrance of it, was too vague to furnish any detailed in. formation. On referring to the Finance Accounts, to check our large table of " Pay and Pension" by the sum actually paid from the Ex- chequer, we found it 310,000/. instead of 498,470; and, tracing the subject to its source, and looking back to the debates, (of which we spoke from what turns out to be a wrong impression,) we see that the Houee or rather the Ministers, confirmed every recommendation of the Committee—but the saving one; both parties joining in slighting that "twopenny halfpenny thing called economy," and in repudiating such an inconsiderable reduction. A hint to future Cenenittees to economize boldly. We see too, that Sir HENRY PARNELL spoke strongly on the subject. " He was much disappointed at !tot perceiv- Saving y n.,-

Will he be the same econo- mist next month? He bus pledged himself to his constiuents to resign office rather thaw vote for a had measure : will he vote for a bad Civil List? or will be make his own convenience the test of good and evil. The difference in question is slight, and tells al in our throw. as we underrated the present expenditure. Still, as our only object is con ect- ness, we reprint the general table, and the classes where the error was made. Tice live classes of the Civil List should stand thus- ].

As there is, even uccording to the cautious Committee's showing, a capability of effecting a greater reductien than we looked for by more than 11,1.3.1.1., we tie ilk the public may fairly expect a saving in the Civil List of at least RO,C00/., indepoide»t of the Pensions. And if it should not be known what to do with the money, wily, it will just re. peel the Advertisement-duty.
