      alse glories of the theatrical mines , where gems and gold and silver seem to be found in an abundance greater even than at Golconda or Potosi * A new and very ingenious mode of using and shifting the scenery has also been applied , by which very unexpected and extraordinary effects are produced on this small stage . Alto- , gether it must be pronounced a remarkable success , and it reflects great credit on all concerned .

      Lbjldeb Office , Friday Evening , December 31 st . THE REVENUE . Tub accounts for the Quarter ' s , Revenue to be made up this day will show an increase of about 1 , 000 , 000 ? . as compared with the corresponding quarter of last year . Bat as the comparison is made against a period of great commercial embarrassment , it would be better to contrast the revenue of this quarter with the corresponding quarter of 1856 . In the latter case the result would show an increase of not more , probably , than about 200 , 000 / . The portion of the decrease which falls in Income-tax will be in a great measure compensated by unusually large receipts from miscellaneous sources . The Customs will give an increase of about 600 , 000 / ., as compared with the same quarter of 1857 , but a decrease of 30 , 000 ? . ( about ) as compared with the same quarter of 1856 . In Excise there is an increase of not more , probably , than 180 , 000 & , notwithstanding the increased duty on , spirits . ¦ Stamps show an improvement of about 260 , 0007 ., but only of 180 , O 00 £ if compared with 1856 . The new duties have contributed to this result . Land and assessed taxes will be about stationary . In the Income-tax there will be a decrease of about 300 , 000 ? ., owing , of course , to the reduction in the rates of duty . The Post-office will produce an increase of about SOjQOO ? . Crown lands , as usual , show scarcely , if any variation . Under the head of Miscellaneous Receipts there will be an increase of probably nearly 200 , 000 ? . As against the quarter of 1856 , this item gives an increase of more than 700 , 000 / . But these increases , arising from exceptional causes , do not indicate a positive improvement of revenue .

      , France. The Moniteur Of This Day, Frid...

      , FRANCE . The Moniteur of this day , Friday , announces that the Emperor has granted a full pardon or commutation of sentence to one hundred and sixty-four persons -who had been convicted at the sessions or by the ordinary tribunals , two of whom had been condemned to death . The troubles that have broken put in Algeria among , the Kabyles are said to be serious . The gravity of the matter is , perhaps , exaggerated , but , if so , it is owing to the total silence of the Parisian press—no journal having got permission to utter a word about it . They may , of course , say what they like about India , and the approaching ruin of the English domination , but of Algerine troubles not a tittle . The theatre of the troubles is said to be a mountain district in the subdivision of Batna and province of Constantino .
