In the English House of Commons on the 4th of April, Mr. Disraeli made the annual financial statement of the government, Notwithstanding the severe monetary crisis through which England had passed, itz resources had never relaxed, and the resulta wero satisfactory. Last year the income was estimated at £67,013,000, while the actual income was £69,434,000, which left a surplus of £2,421,000. The increase arose from the increased consumption of sugar, tobacco, malt liquors and spirits. The expenditure of last year was estimated at £67,081,000, and the issues had been £66,- 780,000, The estimated income for the coming year is £69,710,000, and it is estimated that the expen- diture for the same period will be £63,134,000. The total surplus of the income over expenditure is 21,206,000, and he proposed to appropriate it not to the reduction of taxes, butto consider how it might be applied in diminishing the national debt. And it is pro- posed to extinguish £24,000,000 of it before 1885 by by means terminable annuities, The London papers generally approve of the Disraeli budget.

Since the beginning of the spring emigration has con- siderably increased, and it is believed that if the present rate of increase continues for any length of timo the numbers will exceed the enormous proportions of 1865, when emigration was at ils height, The class of people emigrating is generally of the com- fortable farming class, and as a rule they ere young and healthy persons. On no day during the past month was there such a rash of emigrants as yesterday and to-day. By every train—which leave Cork hourly, from early morning scores of intending emigranis were to be seen wending their way to the railway stations at the north and south sides of the city en route to Queenstown, where upwards of twelve hundred were shut out from the three steamers which sailed on Thursday, the 4th inst. ‘The extra steamship Edinburg sails from Queenstown on Monday next, 8th inst., but she can only accommo- date about six hundred. THE GERMAN QUESTION. Negotiations—Opinion of Project of Purchase. A Borlin telegram of the 4th of April says:—‘Intelll- gence received here from the Hague announces that the Dutch government has officially informed the Prussian Cabinet that the sale of Luxemburg has not yet been effected, and will not be carried out without the consent f Prusela.” of The London Times says it is a disgrace to French statesmen that the Luxembi scheme should ever have been entertained. France will show her defer-nce for this tll-omened ‘European opinion by abandoning negotia- tion which would not only unite all Germany against her but break off the intimate friendship which prevails be- tween her and other European Powers. ‘A Paris telegram of tue Sth of April ssys:—The French government has still t consideration the Consols for money, 91.

More About the New Tarif—It Displeases all Classes—The New Internal Re: Law— Situation of the Banks—T' Alarm About the Moctezama, &c. Havana, April 13, 1867. It 1s difficult to estimate the general discontent now Prevailing among all classes about the modifications made in the duties on some of the principal articles of import, when a very different scale was expected from the long promised and exaggerated “reforms” in the Custom Houge regulations of Cuba, A respectful pro- test, in the form of a memorial or petition, is now being signed by the merchants, to be sent to Spain through the medium of the Captain General, praying for a revi- sion and adequate change compatible with the still ex- isting tariff and the nature of the trado now carried om with foreign countries. If the new tariff has given cause for complaint, the new taxation scheme 1s the universal theme of dissatis- faction and disgust, absorbing all other topics and pre- occupying the public mind to an extraordinary extent, The press, despite its propensity to patch up all govern- ment matters, is forced to take the part of the people in the measures which are to affect all classes on the Ist of July next. A petition addressed to the government in Spain has been set afoot, which is to be forwarded by the first authority in Cuba, with hundreds of signatures, praying fora juster mode of taxation, according to the respective nature of each trade, industry or occupation, I foretold all this, as I could at one glance comprehend that the framers of the schedules bad bad no regard cither to the income or common benefits derived from each trade or occupation, or to the classification of them. The Spanish portion of the population are not less vocif- erous in their complaints than the rest.

The bills passed in one day bave numbered as high as one hundred. The various bills concerning tene- ment houses, the Fire Marshal, the Fire Department, the proposed Fire Bureau and the like recommended by the Committee on Insurance which visited your city in February last have been finally passed and sent to the Governor. BRRVETS IN THE NATIONAL GUARD. The Assembly concurrent resolution having been adopted to-day in the upper house, the Governor is duly authorized to appoint to brevet ranks of the same grade in the National Guard all officers from the State of New York who held positions in the service during the late war. THY EXTENSION OF THE METROPOUTAN FOLICR DISTRICT to the town of Newtown, Astoria and the locality on Long Isiand Sound, sortb and east of Williamsburg, has been defeated in the lower house by a vote of 47 to 53. The result was due in great part to the efforts of Mr. Wilson, who represented the absence of any necessity for the introduction of the system and combatted the measaro in every step of its progress. THE UNION LEAGUE CLUB RESOLUTIONS. In the Senate the Lieutenant Governor pre- sented the following resolut which were adopted at poses of the Union League Club of New York, April Resolved, That the facts officially communicated to the Assembly by the State Comptroller, showing that the grants already made to railroads and objects by the prosent ‘islature will swell the rate of taxation which in 1858 and 1880 was but two and « half mflls, and which was ten years past, including the period of the war, for but « fraction over four mills, to more than ten mills for the current year, exhibit an i of which is at once unsatis- TeResdiveds That apart from these general appropriations “i “ termed Ope majority of the Legislature in franting Yalta: in grat tae le ‘ranchless (or the benefit of ‘with apparent- ly small regard to the rights and of the communities: sifeoted by such grants, and uader otrcumstances which have created Cig doubts whether the same have been induced poe regard to the general welfare, and which have ‘ehtetiec nay Mout eventing an stsonn upon te patible with the ‘honor of the State and h aa whatever partakes of legislative F atthe integrity of we pa, abuse of the Vand intrus' vo Soret se ee pecenen Tens ing the cont LJ ru eu ins ment into contempt, we frankly d i eisai S57 ae nat, Ps ag Cee EY becomes the national U: party, which H ihe, destruction to whisk i was ‘and pu industry of the by the rebellion, barden. we a] wo honorable ablican in ive tue party from. the davgers and dis: ives, and toinsist upon a fair measure of decency laatly, that we rely on his kxcellency we warmly ap- jal and extrava- to interpose r official influence to save us from ition, and from all that is tainted with even the eoitin ot fraud, and soto prevent the spreading of the idea which aevaent losisad of affording & sure protection’ to the peo. o ing a sure - F; et danger of bolas, converted by an immoral ‘cllque Bs Gleagins of opprestion. Mr, Sessions moved to roturn the resolutions to the source from whence they came. As to taxation, he felt justified in saying that the rate this year will not exceed ‘seven mills, As tothe authors of these resolutions he had no doubt, if it were possible to got at the truth, it would turn out that at least some of them are among the most active and notorious lobbyists that bave hung around the capital this winter, among those who con- tributed to the defeat of the pier and wharf and other measures looking to the benefit of the public, Mr, O'Donnell thought the motion ought not to be adopted. These resolutions come to us somewhat in the form of a petition; he thought the resolutions ought not tobe returned, and ho hi the Senator would ‘consent to lie them lay on the table. ‘Mr. Sessions cou!d not withdraw his motion. Ho ro- garded the resolutions as insulting to the Senate—so in- sulting that they ought to be returned without notice, except with our most unutterabie contempt. Mr. Collins agreed with the Senator from the Thirty second. Theresotutions are intended apparently as a studied inguit to the Senate, Mr, Pierson also thought the paper turned without further notice from this ¥ ‘all such flings or insinua- were unjust, and he did mate, in point of ability, most favorably led it for fn Hag to be re- of any signature he y signs pat irning the resolutions with the Senators While i looked i ge w 0 ss rs euch a eat urely ignors {orto indulge b ta reeponetility Yo indulge. 10 would be more masiy, mare palace.
