Our Paris correspondence of yesterday noon has arrived. The debate in the chamber on the reform banquets was expected with much interest, and was to have commenced yesterday. About one hundred deputies have more or lees assisted at, and promoted these popular demonstrations; and it is expected that greatindignation will be expressed in the tribune at the offensive epithets used in the speech and repeated in the address respecting them. the occasion will of course be used to anticipate to some extent the discus sion of the question of parliamentary and electoral reform. Within the last two years 22 councils-general have declared in favour of parliamentary reform, and reform banquets have been held and numerously attended in nearly fit y chief towns in the depart ments. There is no domestic news of general interest in the journals. The Augsburg Gazette of the 2nd inst. says that fresh troops are still pouring into Italy. The follow. ing reinforcements were ordered : two regiments of cavalry and a battalion of chasseurs; two regiments of infantry of the Archduke Louis and Baron Furs tenwarther of Moravia; the battalion of chasscurs of Salzburg, and the regiment of light horse of Prince Lichatenatcin. The regiment of the Chevalier de Hesse was en route for Milan, and had arrived at Trieste. By an order of the Milanese police, the railway be tween that city and Treviglio was to have been closed against the public on the 29th, 30th, and 31st, being on these days exclusively employed for the transport of troops. Great excitement prevailed in Piedmont, produced on the one hand by reports of aggressive military de monstrations on the pert of Austita in Lombardy, and on the other by the news of the proclamation of the eonstitution of Naples. Various regiments were or- . dere(' to proceed from Turin awl Genoa to Aleesandria by forced marches. This measure was ascribed to an apprehension of an intention on the part of the Austrian commander-in.chief to seize suddenly and unexpectedly on Alessandria, which is one of the moat important f. rtified places in Northern Italy. On the arrival of the news from Naples at Genoa a great popular demonstration took place, and exclama tions were everywhere heard in favour of a consti tution fir Piedmont. The hotel of the Neapolitan consul, recently so obnoxious, was surrounded by ” the people, crying, " Long live the Consul o f Na p les . The I,rgn lenliana, anew Genoese journal, of the Ist inst, has an article urging on King Charles Albert the policy of granting nt once a constitution to his people similar to that of Naples. ATe Daum was an nounced to be performed in the principal church, in celebration of the revolution at Naples, and the city was to have been illuminated in the evening. A letter from Turin of the 27th, quoted by the Augsburg Gazette, lays, that the Austrian ambassador at that court had demanded satisfaction for some articles offensive to his government which had ap red in a Turin' journal, but that no satisfaction had yet been rendered, although the application had been supported by the Russian minister. , e have received the letters of our correspondent) at Naples to the 3lst. The national guard had bet. n shindy brought into action, although armed only with fowling-pieces and such other weapons as could be improvised, in which cudgels were included. The lazzarom proceed, it seems, turbulently, and require coercion. Various persons, says our correspondent, were attacked and ill-treated by them. In the vici nity of the custom-house a young man had a cockade torn from his coat by a lazzarone, but the act being seen by a national guard, he was immediately seized, when the lazsarone drew a knife, whereupon the guard transfixed him with his bayonet, and killed hint on the spot. The liberal party, who lately had the government to contend against, had now, it seems, the most ignorant and lowest class to coerce. The king was very popular. On the 30th he drove through the streets of Naples in an open carriage, accompanied by the queen and unattended by any escort. Our correspondent says that there was not even an ordounance officer or aid-de-camp with the carriage. Ilia Majesty was everywhere well received. In the evening of the same day the King and Queen appeared in the royal box at the San Carlo, and met with a most enthusiastic reception. The house was full to excess. One box alone was unoccupied, that of the ex-minister of police, Del Carretto. Seats were let for three times their regular price. On the royal party entering their box, one universal shout of " Long live the constitutional King" burst from the entire house. Similar demonstrations took place between the acts. On the night of the 30th the city was patrolled by the national guard, accompanied by small detach ments of cavalry. There was no disorder. The en thusiasm was unbounded. At balls and private par ties, the ladies wore tricolor cockades instead of flowers in the hair. At two o'clock in the afternoon of the 31st, when our correspondent closed his despatch, the city had resumed its usual aspect, and all was calm. The lassaroni were quiet, and " apparently," concludes our earrapandaur, "a saw era of liberty has own minced for Naples." The last accounts from Palermo (understood to be up to the 29. h ult.) received in Naples announced that a suspension of arms had been concluded be tween the insurgents and the troops, and that the latter bad retired to some distance from the city. An order for their immediate return to Naples had been forwarded to the Duke de Majo. An in surrectionary movement had also broken out at Mes sina, but no collision had taken place between the peoVe and the garrison, which had retired into the forts and the citadel. The British frigate Thetis, and the steamer Gladiator, were stationed there for the protection of the English residents. Tl, Ven geance man-of-war, after a short stay at Messina, proceeded to Palermo. The Madrid mail of the let inst. has arrived. Although Espartero was at the levee on the celebra tion of the birthday of the Duchess of Montpeneier, he was not at the ball in the evening, owing to the schism between him and Queen Christina. The Queen appeared to be in good health, and danced till five in the morning. Of 2,600 invited many were absent. being confined by the influenza, among whom' were Narveez and Mr. Bulwer. Espartero appeared in the theatre on the evening of the mg., and was the object of a very enthusiastic popular demonstta tion, his box being placed under a perfect rain of bouquets. FURTHER NEWS FROM I'ARIS. Our Paris despatches of last evening have arrived. The tergiversation of M. Guizot in the recent de bate on the Italian diplomacy of France and the precarious tenacity of the new Austrian alliance, con tinues to be a subject of speculation and discussion. PAWSFu. T.

Letters from Medrid of the let, in addition to news above given, tray that the Progressiet party in general declined the invitations sent them to the birth-day ball of the 30th, in consequence of Evar tero being omitted in the list of invited. The queen danced frequently during the evening. Among her partners were the Duke of Glacksburg. 'the king did not dance. He withdrew with queen Christina, at half-past two. The queen did not retire till five o'clock. General Serrano, with his staff, arrived on the 24th tilt. at Almeria, on his return from the expedition to theThafferine Isles. The influenza was rapidly decreasing. Congratulatory addressee from provincial cities and towns continued to reach Espartero, and several other deputations had waited on him to welcome him back to Spain. The 'Jerald() appears to be very sore at the marks of respect lavished on the general. It says that they are so exaggerated and overdone that they would make Spain the laughing-stock of Europe, did not Europe know that the great body of Spaniards cannot be held responsible for them. A letter mentions that the government had removed the order to absent himself from Spain which was given to General Alain. It was said that the Colonel of the Queen's Regiment had been severely reprimanded for not having waited on General Espartero when he passed through St. Sebastian. Although the Bourse was not as animated on the Ist as on the preceding day, prices were well sus tained, a rise took place, and a tendency to continue upwards was manifested. The abundance of money was unusual. Every species of security, without ex ception, was in demand. MIAMI., Fee. I.—Three per Cents., 27 11-16 oak 22 at 20 day , .

Letters from Florence of the 31st announce that the Neapolitan steamer Neptune, having M. Del Carretto on board, had sailed for Savetn.a, where the exile expected he would be safe. From thence it was expected the voyage would be continued to some port of France, but the ultimate destination was unknown. Funeral services for the victims of the Milan mas sacres were celebrated in the churches of most towns of the reforming states of Italy. The Reserganento says that a decree, expelling the Jesuits, had been published at Naples. Letters received from Milan, quoted by the Post Gazette of Frankfort, affirm that a secret conspiracy of the liberals had been detected in that city. '1 welve persons, all of wealth and rank, had bee A n, it is said, arrested and conducted to Laybach. magistrate, holding a high position, was compromised. It is stated that the conspirators had reckoned on the moral support of Sardinia. A million was found in ' the common chest, and much gold in the possession of those who were arrested in the "late disorders"—the term used, to express the recent massacres of the un armed people, by the journal of Prince Metternich. The Artys&urg Gazette of the 3rd inst. has the fol lowing, under the date of Turin, 29th January : The physician Belceedi, who escaprd lately by Hight from th e arre st which awaited him, is a Sardinian subject. He had received at Milan, it is raid, notice to quit the city, be cause the government desired to avoid new difficulties with the court of Sardinia. The same story is circulated respecting M. Cantu. But these are probably false. It is more pro bable that the government at Milan desired to deliver their passports to many suspected persons, and to get them to leave hely. Government bad seized at Milan a number el cases whick had arrived from Switzerland, and whicb weee tilled with poli:Lards. Our relations with Austria bemuse daily more complicated, although in small matters the usual courtesy is shown. The answer to bs given to Austria on the subject of her late remonstrances against our military preparation , is ready, and will be expressed in terms very c onCitilistory. LEADERSHIP 01 , THE " COUNTRY PARTY."—A I meeting of the country party, at which upwards of 100 members were present, took place yesterday at Lard Stan• ley's. His lordship, referring in the most flattering manner to the past exertions of Lord George Bentinek, notified to the nu etiag the resignation of that nobleman as leader of the country party in the House of Commons. His lordship, adverting to this fact, stated that Lord G. Ben tinek, differirg as he did from so largo a propurtion of his linty on such sits' questions as those which had recently oc cupied Pa lianout , the questions of removing Jewish disabLities and of making still further concessions to the Roman Catholics, felt that the efficiency of the party would be materially increased by his retirement. Lord G. Bentinek, however, had promised to give his most active and vigorou support to the future leader of the party in the Rouse of C o ommons, whoever might be appointed to the post. The announcement war received with expressions of gratitude to Lord G. Bens luck for his:devoted urned vice in the cause of protection , and the meeting adjontil Wed nesday next, at eleven o'clock, in order then m elect Lord G. Bentinek's sucessor. We have every reason to believe that there will be a unanimous disposition to appoint the Marquis of Granby, than whom a more high-spirited, patriotic, able, and right-principled young nobleman does not exist. The indUtnons he has already given of his aptitude foe business, of strict integrity of purpose, and of his firm adherent* to the Christian and protestant prin. cipla by which his party a c re distinguished, are auguries of a future success to which we am sore the public will look for ward with the same satisfaction and coufidecne ea ourselves. —Morning Herald.

Haniatcu, Feb. 7.—Oar attendance at market to-day was pretty good, and also the supply of Wheat and Barley. The former maintained late prices for the finest dry earn plea, and the very best malting Barleys were fully . as dear. Beans and Peas, if dry and hard, supported late pnees, but few on offer. ••. - --- RUMFORD, Feb. s.—There was an average quantity of Wheat, for which there was a good demand, at the price of last market-day. Fine malting Barley was in request, with a turn in favour of the seller. In Beans, Peas, and Oats there was little doing. Prices unaltered. HUNTINODON, Feb. s.—The prices of last week were about sustained for every description of dry Corn, and in some few instances, where the quality was rather superior or suitable for seed, some little 'theme was established. These remarks do not apply to damp Corn. KRNDAL,Feb.5.—There was but a scanty supply of grain, in consequence of the morning being wet and stormy. The weather, after a very herd frost, hes been succeeded by a rapid thaw. LANCASTER, Feb. s.—There has again been a large sop. ply of Wheat and Meal. The latter has been done at fully ls. lower than last week—say 295. to 30e. In Wheat there is no change. Lliczarsn, Feb. s.—Wheat was very much out of con dition, and dull sales, except for the very few hard, dry sam ples ; these were quickly sold at last week'e prices ; all other eons being on hand, and a good deal left at the close. Bar ley, Beans, and Oats without alteration. MALTON, Feb. s.—The best descriptions of all grain are in good demsnd at last week's rates, but inferior qualities are rather lower. Wheat, white, 565. to 645. per 40 stone ; red, 535. to 58s. Barley, 295. to 335. per 32 stone. Oats, 91d. to lOyd. per stone. NIRTHArarTOte, Feb. s.—There has been but a moderate show of Wheat and Barley ; the former article at the com mencement was mAing a little more money, but closed heavy, without any improvement. Barley is making fully Is. per qr. more money. In other grain there is no quotable alteration. PRESTON, Feb. s.—With a change of wind our imports from Ireland of all kinds of produce continuo on a very limited settle. We have again to report an excesrively dull trade, and to expedite sales a tendency to lower prices is ob servable. This morning there was a fair supply of English Whrat, which met a dragging sale at a decline of about 64. per windle. Irish is offering freely, at an abatement of 2d. to 3d. per bushel. Flour Is. per sack and barrel cheaper. Beans without change. Oats are still in limited request, and common samples must be noted Id. per bushel lower. English Oatmeal Is. per load lower ; and Irish is difficult to quit at a reduction of 6d. per 2401b5. upon the good general qualities. All other articl.e offering oa easier terms.

ODESSA, Jan. 17.-Of Wheat the estimated quantity in stone here on the Ist of January was 650,000 chetwerta of soft, end 52,000 of hard, exporters and dealers' stocks in- chided. Of this, however, comparatively little is of first quality ; and, until the setting in of frost and close of our na vigation by ice, about three weeks since, holders were very firm in their demands. They have since become somewhat more tractable, and Palish soft Wheat of 621 b. per bush., may now be quoted at 23 ro. per chetwert, or about 235. 6d. per qr. on board; of 6111 b, to 611 b., 22 1 ro. to 22 ro., or 325. to 34. 3d . per qr. on board ; and lower sorts, 211 ro. to 20 ro., or 300. 6d. to 28s. 6d. per quarter on board. Should the existing interruption to navigation be much prolonged, or accounts from foreign markets become less encouraging ' than they have lately been, a further fall in prices ' may be anticipated. There is very little Saodomirka or ' °hilts in store, and its value may be quoted 20 to 221 ro. per chetwert, or 28e. 64. to 32a. per qr. on board. Hard Wheat is worth 19 to 22 ro., or 275. 3d. to 31s. 3d. per qr. on board. Rye The stock on hand on lot of January war about 63,000 chetwerta. The last sale wis at 121 ro. per chetwert, or about 18s. Id. per qr. en board, with very little Inquiry for the article. Indian Corn scarce, the whole abaft erarboiag oalgr of about 6,000 chetwerts, sad the price quits nominal, at 18 to 16 ro. per . thetwert, or 255. 6d. to 22.. 10d. per quarter on board. Barley, about 7,500 chetwerts in store, and the price no minal at 11 to 10 ro. per chetwert, or 16s. 2d. to 14e. 10d. per quarter on board. Oats : The stock consists of about 21,000 chetwerts, and the price 11 to 12 ro. per chetwert, or 16s. 24. to 17s. 6d. per qr. on board. Pout : There are only about 1.500 chetwerts on the spot, end the price nominal, at 18 to 22 Ito. per chetwert, or 30s. 11d. per qr. on board. Linseed : The entire stock remaining in store, in speculdtors and exporters' hands included, is about 46,000 chetwerts ; the total exports to all parts in 1847 having been about 240,000 chetwerts. The price is quoted 22 to 23 ro. per chetwert, or about 325. 9d. to 34e. per qr. on board ; but we must observe that small lots only, and of very ordinary quality, can be had at the former price ; but notwithstanding dulness of demand and the close of our port by ice, it is by no means certain that a parcel of realls fine quality could be bad at less than,it even at, 23 ro. per chetwert; while the pretensions of our chief holders arc far beyond that rate. For delivery in May and June, about 5,000 chetwerts were bsught a few days since at 211 ro. per chetwert, or about 31s. 9d. per qr. oa board, with 14 ro. per chetwert in advance ; but tihi re are more buyers than sellers at that rate. Srer - rtN, Jan. 31.-The dull accounts from England and increased supplies from our farmers hare produced a consi derable degree of languor in our grain trade. Wheat was offered at Is. to 2s. per qr. below previous rates, and we quote 611bs. to 621bs. Uckermark and Pomeranian Wheat 420. to 435. per qr. free on board in spring. The demand for Barley has become slow, and prices cheaper. HOPS. BOROUG II ikiAltliET, TO, , 0' Clock. --- Id , sus.

Of cart Horses, the exhibition was anything but good, useful and tine young cart Horses making front 361. to 451. The Cow fair showed some excellent stock. Our notice was particularly called to one in the possession of Mr. William Hobbs. of the shorthorn breed, sold to Mr. Bishop, of Mintey, at twenty guineas— the Calf by no means good ; in fact, it was doubted whether it would survive the journey down, but the stock produced 2'2 quarts at one milking. What gained particular attention was an Ox, fed by 3. Blagrave, Esq., of Calcot Park, for whirls there was great competition, and taken away at last by Mr. Cumber, of Theale, to the station, at 361. There was a great number of ordinary things, and, as usual, were to be bought at various prim. Store Pigs, or strong Hogs, were in great request, at a considerable advance in prices. SWINDON, Feb. 7.—More fat Beasts than usual; prices were, therefore, rather lower; the beat falr6d. per score; common, even, N. to Is.

FIRST RF.ADINO.—BiII for Establishing Diplomatic Relations watt the Court of Rome. - - • . . • - sow •.••• —•— The Bishop of MiNctiesinn took the oaths and his sent. DIPLOMATIC RELATIONS WITH THE COURT OF ROME. The Marquis of LANSDOWNE begged to lay on the table of the house a bill fur the purpose of enabling her Ma jesty to establish diplomatic relations with the Court of Rome. It would be printed, and in their lordships hands to-morrow (this day). He begged to propose that it should be read a first time, and he would move that it be read a second time on Friday sent, until which time he thought he should best consult the wishes of their lordships by abstain ing from entering into any particulars respecting the measure. Lord STANLEY would offer no opposition to the bring ing in of the bill, but he would not bind himself to the course he should adopt on the second reading. It might be desirable that diplomatic relations should exist between the sovereign of this country and the court of Rome, as temporal princes, but it must be subject to such restriction, as might be necessary for satisfying the scruples of the people of th is °sentry He thought, however, that it was precipitate to read a mea sure of so much importance a second time for the purpose of discussion on so early a day unless there was some urgent necessity for it which he could not discover ; and he trusted the noble marquis would give to the house and the country ample time for the consideration of such a measure. Tha Marquis of LANSDOWNE had Ise desire tow as due precipitation in verging forward the measure. It could not, however, come with turprise either upon their lordships or the country, inasmuch as many noble lords had adverted to the subject at different times, and before the recess he bad stated a very decided opinion upon it himself. When the noble lords had setn the bill to-morrow, if it was then con sidered expedient he would name a later day for the second reading. The Duke of RICHMOND thought a bill of so much im portance ought to be well considered. The country would not be prepared for it; and he was surprised that it had not been introduced into the Queen's ape ‘ ch. A great portion of the people of England would Wok that such a measure violated their religious feelings. Earl FITZWILLIAM had no doubt that some persons would think their religious feelings violated by such a mea sure; but he was confident that the great taw of the people would not even feel their religious prrjudi, es offended by the introduction of a measure by which her Majesty woe enabled to minore a doubt whether her minister. would not be liable to persecution and penalties if they eoterid into diplomatic relations with the Pope ea a temporal priuce. The Earl of EGLINTON was surprised at the haste with which it was proposed to discuss the merits of suer a mea sure. It was impossible that the people of Scotland would have been able to read it before the sli,cussion on it would be taken. The Marquis of LANSDOWNE would fix a more distant day for the second reading, but he would prefer nit naming the day then. (Hear. hear.) WEST INDIA COLONIES. Iserd STANLEV, in inventing several petitions from the West Indite, complaining of the act if ISIb, and praying fur relief, said it would be convenient, considering the in terest which the subject excited throughout the country, to state generally the views entertained by the peti•ioners of the state of the West India colonies, and the remedies which they suggested; as also how far he was disposed to concur is their propoditiom. Although there were different recom mendations in the petitions, yet in their main allegations they all concurred. They all alleged that the sugar planting interest was in a moat depressed and alarming state, which W bean produced by the passing of the act of the session balm the but. (Hear.) 'the petition of the Liverpool dmwahtion said that, suffering under the cruel consequences of Om inconsistent legislation on the subject, the petitioners wilt utterly at a loss to know what courts* to pursue, and they therefore threw themselves on the house, and implored that, at the earliest moment, they might know what mea sures, if any, were contemplated with reference to the West India colonies. The petitioners further stated that, if par Bement intended to pereevere in the course which they had alreaey adopted, it was better at once to declare what was to be the fate of teme British possessions. lie concurred with the petitioner a.s ta all the evils they complained of ; (or be believed the condition of the West India colonies to be most embarrassed and alarming ; and he concurred with them that, after having surmounted the difficulties imposed upon them by I. gislatiou, and when they mere successfully struggling to overcome those difficulties—moreover, at the moment when they had the greatest reason to rely with con fidence onFotection of the British legislature, a sudden and tine: change in the legislative policy of this country d aggravated the evils under which they suffered, and plunged them in the depths of ruin. He also agreed with the petitioners that it was important early to know the intentions of the go vernment. It was hardly necessary to trouble their lordships with any statements to prove the state of the West India colonies. He would, however, refer to a statement which had appeared in the paper" from the standing committee of West India proprietors and mer chants. [The noble lord here read the document referred to setting forth the distress of the colonies.) But as it was poe sible that individual instances might have more weight than a general statement, he would refer them to a document which had been put into his hands by a respectable pro prietor of Demerara, which stated that from the Ist of Jan. to the Ist of July, 1847, the price of sugar had ranged from 211. to 181. per hhd., whilst, from the Ist of July to the Ist of Jan., 1843, the prime varied from 131. to 111. per hhd. The same gentleman stated that on one of his estates, last year, the outlay had been 11,0001 , and the returns 9,5224, whilst on another th e disbursement' had been 8,407/. and the receipts 8.1701. only. (Hear, hear.) By legislation, then, it woul I appear that the price of sinter had been re duced to 111. per ton; and be had been told on good autho rity that morning that in Jamaica, Demerara. and Trinidad, it was impos ible to raise 1,0001. upon security of any of the sugar-growing estates in those islands. He wished to refer. for the purpose of his argument, to the state of the West India colonies pre trious and subsequent to the emancipation act of 1833, by which the utter abolition of slavery was accompanied by a large and munificent grant, consistent with the claims of humanity, justice, and policy. He should never be ashamed of having submitted to parliament that meaattre, but great as the sum of 20,000,0001. was, a greater pieuniary sacrifice than bad ever been made to the claims of humanity by a commercial nation, it was quite inadequate. Having granted 20,000,0001., parliament decided that the ap prenticeship should be for seven years, instead of twelve. Afterwards it was agreed that the apprenticeship should terminate at the end of five, instead of seven years, thus de priving the planter of two yearn' labour, which was part of hie compensation ; and in August, 1838. it was finally pot an end tn. During those discussions, it was laid down that it would be a great evil if the result of emancipation should be a less amount of production. He would now glance at the state of the production of the West Indies previous to emancipation, during the period of apprenticeship, and, subsequently, during the time of unrestricted labour. He had a return of the total amount of sugar of each year from lels down to 1832, and until the period of emancipation the West Indies supplied sear by year a greater amount of sugar than was required for the consumption of this country, thereby proving that they had no monopoly, because their prices were regulated by the prices abroad, they being com pelled to send their produce to meet the produce of other emintries on a footing of entire equality. The gross consumption during the period he had named was 57,000,000 twee., the average produce of thaw years was 3,761,000 meta., and the average consumption in this c matey was 3,212,000 meta. From 1835 to 1838, during the apprenticeship system, the produce fell to 3,467,000 cent ; and instead of there being a surplus, as there had been before, of upwards of 500,000 mem on the average in each year, there has a deficiency in the whole of I the latter period of 3,042,000 ewts. Now, with reference to free labour, he would take it from 1839 to 1943. la the first year the produce fell from 3,520,000 ewts. to 2,823,000 cuts. ; in the next year to 2,0412,000 cwts. ; and in the year after to 2,e01,000 ews. In the time of slavery the average produc tion had been 3,700,000 ewe. ; during the period of appren. ticeship 3,004,000 cwts.; and under the free-labour system, 2,438,000 meta Comparing the 12 years previous to eman cipation with the 12 subsequent years, thi re was, however, an increase in the price of sugar, which indemnified the planter for the diminished production. Front 1823 to 1834 the average price was 295. sd. per cwt., whilst from 1836 to 1847 it had been 38e. p. r cwt. They had, however, to pay more for the labour of production. And here he would observe that no class of labourers in the world had more comfort and enjoyment than the negro labourers in our West India oelonim; and he would also do them the justice to add that the manner in which they used such advantages re flected great credit on these, so far as their morel character and conduct were concerned. (Hear, bear.) He had been inform el that the cost of making sugar from DEO to 1834 had been 4s Stf. per cwt.; from 1834 to 1838, fie. 7d. per cwt. ,• from 1838 to 184!,16.. Ild.; and from 1842 to 1846, 21e. 7d. 22e., he was told, was now about the price. But of this sum 13s. went to the labourer, and the remainder was all the plantnr had to meet the other disbursements on his rstite. Notwithstanding all the difficulties thrown in their way the pl hters did not despair, because they relied on the declaration of parliament to afford them protection. They acceded to the intrialuctioa of East Indian sugar on the Mae terms as their own—they only pealed that, as parliament had taken away their right hand by depriving them of slave labour, they should give them as advantage over slavmgrown produce. In 1840, although the prize of sugar amounted to 42e. Bd. per cwt., parliament de clared that they Were in justice and honour bound to protect the West India colonies, and it was declared that the House of Commons would not admit s`aweirrown sugar in compe tition with their own fete-grown produce. A general den • don was the result of that vote ; and be need not my that it was sanctioned and affirmed by au appeal to the soontry Was there not, then, ground for eonfilenet 1111 induce the West India proprietors to extend their egeffeliess end the British capitalists to make advances ?
