(From the London New Price Current of Friday.)Stroaa.—The transactions in Mitscc,vades have been on the most extensive wale this week and as the holders have been nearly as anxious to effect sales as the buyers to pur chase, there has been little variation in the currency; the sales are estimated at 5,200 hhds. and tierces, during the . week.—To-day -the sales of Muscovades ate on a more confined scale than usual, owing to the few good new Sugars that are left on sale. We 'never knew a period when the supply of refined goods was so inadequate to the demand, and the scarcity of goods is not confined to one description, but extends from the finest to the lowest quality of refined; the fact is clear that the late Ministers have,,by their measures, diminished, if not destroyed, this with other great staple manufactures, and when the de mand arises, the few refiners that are left are unable to apply the demand. 4 We cannot quote a great advance, as purchases to any — extent cannot be made; but for the parcels that offer, prices generally la. higher, have been obtained. This afternoon the same scarcity of goods and the same anxiety to tiny continues, without producing any further marked alteration in prices. Molasses are rather lower, Fannon SIJOAR.—The stock here i❑ first hands is re duced to abatit 400 chests white; 50 chests yellow Havan nab, and about 400 chests Brazil. The sales this week are fine white Havannale, 4,85. 6d. ; yellow is also much in quired after-400 chests Pername sold, brown, 255. a 275., middling white, 86*. ; 100 chests Rios sold, goad yellow, 31a., low white 36r., and good 40*.—The demand for all descriptions of Foreign Sugar continues, but there are ne adequate supplies: The whole sold at full prices. EAST INDIA SUGARS-.-Purchases of small parcels of Bengali are reported at very full prices. Early in the week 5,100 bags Mauritius were brought forward, the tine and grocery descriptions sold freely and at full prices ; the low yellow and brown Went 'off heavily This forenoon the public sale consisted of 3,539 bags Alauritius. The following were the prices :—Yellow, good ditto, 58s. 6d. a 611. ; ,ditto middling ditto, 56:i. 6d. a 595. ; 'ditto low ditto, 54a.. 6d. a 566. ; ditto fine, 61s. 6d. a 635. ; Brown, good to fine, 535. a 541. ; ordinary to middling, 51s. a 525. 6d. COFFtE.—The public sales of Coffee this week have consisted chiefly of British Plantation descriptions, which h a ve sold freely, and at rather higher prices.—A parcel of ordinary Brazil sold at very high rates, 355. and Sss. 6d. ; Ceyln?. 325. 6d. a 355. ; pale gnod ordinary St Domingo 355. By public sale this afternoon 245 casks British Plantation Coffee, Jamaica and Demerara; good middling lamaica•aold at 735., middling at 695. ; chiefly middling Demerara taken in at 68s.—Generally Jamaica Coffee may be stated brisk and 2s. higher ; other deseriptions unvaried. iing, BRANDY, and 1-101.1.axns.—The orders for Rum appear extensive, but the buyers expect to purchase on lower terms when the supplies become more abundant. l'he only sales we have at present to report are parcels of fine Jamaica, 4s. 2d. to 4s. 4d.: Demerara 28 to 30 over, Bd. ; Leewards, proofs and two over, at 29. 21., and some parcels free on hoard at proportionate prices.

FRENCH PAPERS. (From the Gazette de Frawe, dated Thursday.) CON STA NTINOPLE, MAY 1 the new concessions of the - Porte have proved fruitless, as Wight have been ex .pected. On tide other band, the expected result of its oh atin4cy has arrived ; we are at war; Pere has had its illu sions dispelled ever since the 13th. On that day we re ceived the news of the passage of the Pruth by the Russians, as well as the Russian Manifesto, and Count Nesselrode's letter to the erand Vizier. The Divan immediately had an extraordinary meeting. Its sittings have since been Leal both day_ and night, and yesterday war was announced by proclamation in all the market places, and in all the mosques. The Mussulinen received this news with the in, difference which is a consequence of their religious faith, and the public tranquillity has not yet been interrupted for a single moment. • , MAY • 19.—(Fiont , ,another Correspondent). —The Porte tece;ved on the 14th thp Declaration of War by Rusiia, and . On the lhth the news of the passage of the Pruth. Commissioners of the Divan publicly announced the Declaration of War in the market-places and the mosques. At the same time an Ordinance was issued for a general arming, strictly enjoining all the Mussulmans to unite for the defence of their religion and their country, and to, go to the residence .of the Chiefs of the several quarters to receive arms. It is by -these measures that the Postiellas answered the Declaration of Russia, and it is prepa►ing to support the contest. At the same time it has made the European Ministers acquainted wits Its resolution, requesting them to inform their respective Courts that it was going to try the fortune of arms in de fence of its incontestible rights, and that it would rather perish than suffer laws to be dictated to it, so long as it had arms in its hands. To the general surprise, the tranquillity of the ospital has riot been interrupted in this critical moment. The standard of the Prophet, which is generally displayed on all declarations of war, has not, yet been hoisted. . , . . . No fears of excesses are enter tamed at Pera. M. d'Ot tenfels; who was going to the baths at 13russa, has resolved to remain at his post. The troops that were still in the capital have been ordered to assemble at Boinouk ()whine; several detachments of regular troops are already gone thither. The Asiatics, not, trained to the European discipline, have not hitherto made any preparation fur departure. On the whole, the appearance of the city is no more military than it was a few days, ago.—Augsburgh Gazette. ODESiA, MAY 23.—We expect every moment the fleet from Sebastopol, which has 14,000 regular troops on board ; the transports hired by the Government have re ceived orders to join it. They are laden with ammunition and provisions for four months. The Empress is expected to-day. VIENNA, June 2.—The Emperor of Russia is'expected at Bucharest. The bombardment of Ibrail (Braila, or Brailow), commenced on the 22d; several Turkish de tachments, which came out to forage, have been made pri soners by the Russians, who have cut off the communica tion with the fortress. All the trees and houses in the environs have been burned by the garrison, that the bat teries may be able to act: The Russian troops in the camp are engaged in making fascines and ladders, and it is sup posed they mean to carry the place by storm. Braila never yet has been taken, and it would be regarded by the,Turks if it should be se soon taken. Active preparations are making for the passage of the Danube, which, it is said, will take place on the 28th.-- 4ugsburgh Gazette.

IMPERIAL PARLIAMENT. HOUSE OF LOAM, Jviix 13. The LORD CHANCELLOR took his seat at ten minutes past five o'clock. Sir A. GRANT and others brought up a•copy of the Report made by the Select Committee appointed in the Ses•sion of 1824, to take into consideration the Salmon Fisheries of Scotland, and the United Kingdom. Also the appropriation Bill for applying the Surplus 'of the Ways and Means for 1828. Lord DE DUNSTANVILLE presented a peti tion against Slavery., _ Lord MAYNAIth presented a petition from the Colchester Agricultural Association, against the pro posed scale of duty on the Importation of Foreign Corn. Lord BROWNLOW presented a petition from Lincoln, for the repeal of the Bill restricting the cir culation of Small Notes. Lord DUNCAN presented a petition from the Gentry, Ship-owners, Merchants, Owners of Land and Occupiers of Dundee, against the pro posed scale of duty on the importation of foreign corn. The petitioners objected to this Bill on account of the very high. rate of duty proposed, and prayed their Lordships to adopt a fixed scale of duty. In these sentiments the Noble Lord con curred. He objected in too to the graduated scale. The only mode of giving satisfaction to the community at-large on this subject was to adopt a fixed acute at an infinitely lower rate. Lord.EXETER presented a petition from the owners and occupiers of. land of various parishes in Lincoln, to the same effect. The Duke of RICHMOND presented a petition from the owners and occupiers of land, in Sussex, praying for protection against the enormous impor tation of foreign wool. The Noble Lord subse quently moved that this petition be referred to the select Committee.

CORN LAWS. • • • The Duke of WELLINGTON said, in moving that the NI oq thi4 subject be read a secon&time, he did not feel it necessary tn go at great length into the-questian, as he load the opportunity on a former occasion of going very fully into the subject. The prindiple of the Bill .was the nnly subject at present is dispute. The principle of this Bill. was the regulatiortiof the Corn Trade, by means of a duty instead of prohibitibnit , ;That' principle was adojited by ii large inljority of that House •in the , course of last The principle of prohibition was one which was new ' in this country until 1815. Till then the principle had been rather that of duty than actual prohibition. From the year 1815 till the present period, the system of prohibition had been attended with many inconveniences ; and on a va- 10}s riety of occasions it had been necessary for the Government to interfere, in order to Introduce foreign corn by means of proclamationsinto the markets of this country, so that the consumer might not . he distressed by the tpo high price of corn at one time, and that the agriculturist might not he ruined by the too abundant supply at another. Under these circumstances the principle of duties was adopted; and the trial made by the Bill of last year proved that that principle might be resorted to with advantage. There were various interruptions to the system of prohi bition during the several years in whiCh that system was em ployed. Not only did the Government sustain great incou veniences, but the disadvantages to the 'corn-growers was Vera,' great, and there were othe'r' evils attending the system. There was jealousy, on the part of the agricul turists of this country—there was jealousy on the Conti nent—nien complained of being throWn out of employ ment—and the Government could never interfere to the satisfaction of 'all parties. For these reasons it became ne cessary to adopt and, arrange a system that would meet'the wants of the country. The Government did not wish to recur to a power that, wus arbitrary—that was, in fact, il legal on the part of the Crown ; and on all these. grounds it was determined to adopt a different system. This was not the time to discuss the amount of the duty. He : had : stated on former occasions that that amount was sufficient; but if, in the course of the discussion, any Noble Lords should go into the question of the duty, he should have the opportunity of making a reply.. The remainder of the Bill referred entirely to the method of taking the averages. In every respect but that, the Bill was a copy of that which passed last Session. The only alterations which applied to the averages were those required by the existing system, instead of the former. The old system was an arrangement for taking the averages ; by the new system, it was pro posed to take them every six weeks. The Earl of L i%UDERDALE, notwithstanding that he was suffering from ,severe indisposition; which would com pel him to require the indulgence of their Lordships, had felt it his duty to come down to the Honse to oppose this Bill. His object has always been to ascertain what were the best means of maintaining the wealth of the country, and at the same time procuring for the poorer orders a cheap and a steady price of bread. With the view of obtaining the cheapest as well as the steadiest price for grain, he had first considered this question in 1813 ; and the Noble Lord who was then at the head of the Go- . vernment, and who, tho Ugh an opponent of his, was a fair opponent, and one whose absence he should ever lament, told him that in the course of the next session of Parlia ment, the question would be brought forward by his Ma jesty's Government, who intended to propose a protection by prohibition up to a given price. He then assured that Noble Lord that, though not generally a supporter of the Government, he should certainly support them in that view of the subject ; and those who were in the House at that time must recollect how favourable he had been to such a measure. The Noble Lord had told him that that law should be a permanent law of the country during the con tinuance of peace. He (Lord Lauderdale) knew that the prosperity of the country depended upon the permanency of that law ; and he deeply deplored the change of the system. It was an unfortunate circumstance, that the first remon strance against that law was by the agriculturists themselves. He rose on this, as on other occasions, not for the purpose of advocating the interests of the landholders against the lower, orders of the community. God forbid he should do so, for he firmly believed they were best provided for when they were combined. There were three systems advocated in this House. There were first, those who contended that there ought to be a free trade in corn—then those who con tended with him for a prohibition up to a certain price, or for a prohibition by duty; and the distinction which the Noble Duke seemed ti, him to have taken on that point, was, in his mind, a distinction without a-difference. For a century past, the system of the law of this country bad been to protect agriculture by prohibitory duties; and in the best times for agricultural prosperity, that course bad been followed. In his opinion, the scale of duties proposed by the Noble Duke was likely to produce different effects at dif ferent times. It would be favourable to the agriculturist in one state of the market, and unfavourable to him in another. In his view, nothing could be more prejudicial to the country than a free trade in grain.- It was an im possibility to introduce it, it would starve the community.* and the more nearly they approached it, the snore should he reprobate such a system. It was now for the first time that he had occasion upon this subject to refer to the History of the Roman Empire, which afforded a strong proof that the abundance of grain imported front the subject provinces had ultimately ruined the agriculture of Italy. In his re marks upon that subject, Varro had status, that the pro duce of Italy, to the quantity imported before that period, ,vits as 10 to 1; and Columella, whoafterwards wrote upon the same subject, described the produce to have fallen as low as 4 to I.—[The Noble Lord was here interrupted by some remark from Lord King, and turning to that Nobleman, he said] :".:-.These were classical authors, whom his Lordship must be acquainted with, and might quote from them if their opinions had been mistaken. In the Treaty between the King of Spain and his subjects in 1665, it was stated that the agricultureof that country had been destroyed by the protectiop which was granted to the importation of foreign grain, and the people prayed that a different system might be adopted, and the. home agriculture protected ' • and that the country might not be rendered as it bad been, dependent on foreigners, who would leave them without a supply, when they were in need of it themselves. He would state an anecdote upon this subject, which chewed the way,in which this free trade had 'been viewed in another place. In 1735 the Vizier of Turkey had encouraged to so great an extent the importation of foreign grain, that there were at ong time no less than three hundred foreign ships laden with grain. The people of both countries complained of this; because in the one it took away their corn, and in the other It de stroyed the market for their own produce; and the cense qitence was, the poor Vizier lost his head. But what was the effect on the price of corn ? Why, that the same quan tity of corn that had been sold at' 17d., was actually raised to Gs. In modern times, an instance of an opposite kind had occurred. In Sweden; the home agriculture had been vs much encouraged that the produce exceeded the demand, and they were obliged to distil 200,000 quarters of grain from the supply, and that country enjoyed a supply of grain to a greater extent- than any other country. —There _always would be a defect in any system that freely admitted grail' from States more favoured than those into which it . was imported. This country stood in a particular situation with regard to foreign grain at this moment. They knew that one part of the empire had increased her supply, and from that country he thought we ought to encourage the importation, more especially as that was not a manufacturing country. He meant Ireland; and he thought this country should look to Ireland.in the first instance, and nut, by encouraging fo. reign importations, interfere in the smallest degree with that country's produce. What losses, he would ask,- had hithertO been sustained by the system of prohibition ? What mischief had been 'the consequence of the Act of 1815 ? for the Noble Duke had spoken as if it had been mis chievous. Let them look to what had been the price of grain ten or- 'twelve years,antecedently from that period.— When he supported that Act, he was told that . he was erecting a mioimuni , of price, and that the country would never he able to enjoy grain at less -than 80s. per quarter. But what was the fact? Why, for 'some years, the price had never exceeded 65e., and last year it was 575. Was that an unreasonable price which required alteration by' law ? Did tlw,proble Puke wish that the price should be under 575. ? Certainly not. On thelcontrary,he argued the question as if the Present I3ill would sustain corn above that price. A feW years ago a number ofpetitions had been laid upon the table against 'it, buthe 'knew how those petitions were obtained, and valid get them in the same manner 'upon any subject whatever. They generally added a clause upon the necessity of .Parliamentary Reform—(a laugh),—and on. that of reducing the salaries of officers of the Government further than they had been reduced... ,He was oppoied: fp such petitions ; had seen the walariesoloffieers of the 'Crown reduced too much for the condition-of the Officers, and for that of the Goyernmeet, and 'Win his early life he had enacurred in a resolution' declarimr, that "the influ ence of the,Ctivii has increased, was increasing, and ought to be diminished," he now acknowledged that he believed ti l e reverse of that proposition to be actually true.

It was . ' with him a question, whether it had not been the object of certain parties so to act as to make a case against the i andtroeigpd nati law as it now existed. He would be sorry to attribute any ' such objects to the Noble Duke, or to the Noble Lords who acted with him ; butt he did believe that there were men likely to be led away by the fashions of the they, in opposition to their better judgments. He, however, maintained that it would be best to continue the existing law, leaving all exigencies which might arise to be managed by Parliament when sitting, or by the Privy Council when Parliament was not sitting.. Last ear a curious, and he thought somewhat extraordinary doctrine, had been broached ; they heard talk of the comparative inte rests of the manufacturing and agricultural interests.......: He knew of no difference between those interests. The agricultural interests were so bound up with the general wealth and prosperity of the country, that there was no measure of general benefit which would not be of service to those interests. But it was said that a resting place was wanted for the agricultural interest, and it was pro posed to give it by this Bill. But where was to be the resting place for the manufacturer who would have to ap ply to a foreigner for his food ? Where would be the rest ing place for the decay of agriculture which such a measure was calculated to introduce ? Where was to be the rest ing place for the diminished home consumption which that decay would, of necessity, produce? The Noble Lord, after some strong allusions to the arguments used by Lord Goderich last year upon this question, went on to observe, that that-Noble Lord was mistaken,if he supposed he could ever introduce a free trade in corn. The Noble Lerd might shake his head and dissent from that opinion, but he maintained that it was true. Did the Noble Lord imagine that he could introduce sueh a s) stem, when all the nations around- us were copying our ancient trading system? It was preposterous to entertain such an idea. He repeated, that he conceived it would be most advisable to continue the present law, leaving it to Parliament or to the Privy Council to act upon cases of emergency. Upon these grounds he would oppose the motion. • Lord GODERICH—My Lords, as the Noble Earilas thought proper to mention me upon this occasion, and to allude with some severity and humour—of which I do not complain—to the opinions I expressed upon the present question on a former occasion, I feel called upon to make a few observations to your Lordships. The Noble Earl, in • quoting the opinions I gave on a former occasion, has given them with perfect accuracy. I wish, however, to inform the Noble Earl, that, in forming my opinions on subjects, I am not so much of a philosopher as not to perceive that, in dealing - with the interests of man, in all their intricate and complicated bearings, we must modify and regulate them according to times and circumstances. But I say at the same time, that we are hound to lay down some sound principle as the basis upon which we mean to act. And the questionvfor your Lordships here is, whether that basis shall be a prohibition of foreign corn, or the indirect and variable duty which is proposed to you by this Bill. This is the question you are called upon to discuss ; and although 1-differ from the Noble Lord as to the benefits arising froth the existing law, and the evils to be apprehended from that proposed to us, I beg him to understand that I never pro posed, and never supported any thing like an abstract free and unrestricted trade in grain. And although I have felt anxious that the laws and modifications of that trade, which twenty-three:. years of war have forced upon us, should be brought back to what they were before these derangements took place : and although I am no theorist or inexperienced innovator, who sloes not care two straws for the agriculturists; although I am not one of those who are ready to sacrifice the best interests of the country to novel speculations—although, I say, I do not feel that I deserve to come within any of these reproaches of the Noble Earl on the one hand ; so on the other hand do I feel that I ought not to be reproached for wishing to establish the basis of a free trade, subject, of course, to regulations and restrictions, where the interests of the country may require them.--(Hear.)--The Noble Earl has argued this question as if its policy was entirely new, and as if the law, as it now is, had had the experience of ages to recommend it. Now, my Lords, the reverse of this happens to be the fact. Formerly we always regulated the importation of corn by a duty. The first regulation of this kind was in 1804, at which period a duty of 245. was imposed upon foreign corn, beginning when it was at 545. and after that, instead of a gradual reduction' of duty, it fell at once to 25 . . 6d., by which an immense importation might suddenly take place. An alteration was tubsegnently made, raising the market price to 635. but still keeping the duty at 245. up to that point, after which it fell again to 2s. 6d. The Noble Lord went on to contend, that if they were to . continue the law, which allowed the ports to remain open for three.months after corn attained a certain price, every person, having corn within the reach of our markets .would pour it in, as, if they did not do so, it might be long before such an opportunity again presented itself. And it was only by a graduated scale of protecting duties that such an evil could be prevented. The Noble Earl wished to have the power of admitting corn under such circumstances vested in the hand,* of Government.— This he (Lord Goderich) should certainly object to, as he thought it dangerous and unwise to vest such enormous power in the hands of any Government, connected as they necessarily were with the landed interests. It would be much better to have a fixed la.' on the subject, and relieve the Government both from the danger and the responsi bility of exercising such a power. The Noble Earl had objected to the various changes made in the Corn Laws, and in the price of corn at different times, and had taunted Ministers with being the cause of those changes ; but the Noble, Earl appeared to forget the period at which the greatest fluctuations took place. Most Of the Noble Lords who heard him would bear in mind that the greatest fluc tuations in the price of grain had taken place since the in troductionof the Noble. Earl's Bill in 1816.—(Hear.)— It ,mould be idle to expect that they could frame any law which would altogether prevent fluctuations in the price of grain, and keep it at a steady price ; no law could effect that object. But the law now proposed would, in his opinion, go far to effect that object ; and more they could not expect. The Noble Earl, in allusion to the various changes which had been made in the commercial inter course of the country, had imputed certain'notions and im pressions to those by whom these changes were introduced. It was easy to attribute motives, and cast imputations upon public men, but he denied that either he or his colleagues had been actuated by any such mo tives. The Noble Earl had found fault with what had taken place under the warehousing system; now it should be recollected that the warehousing system took place in 1822, and upon what ground was it proposed ? It was proposed on these grounds: The corn was imported into this country under the old law, and upon the faith of that law ; and Parliament having thought proper to alter that law, it was then thought right that this property ought not to be destroyed. This was the ground upon which it was allowed to be warehoused; that ground might be good, or it might be bad, hut whether the one or the other, it was impossible dint the Government could have been ac tuated by the motives attributed to them by the Noble Lord. He had last year delivered his opinions upon this subject so fully, that he felt it unnecessary to take up the time of their Lordships in recapitulating them. It was sufficient for him to add, - that the second reading of the measure of last year had been sanctioned by the majority of their Lordships. • He did not deny that there existed objections to the measure, although it was not his inten tion to enter into them at that moment. Ile said now, as he said on the first occasion, that he supported this mea sure herause ha wished the law to be settled. The greatest mischief Must arise, and always had arisen, from an un settled state of the price' of griin. Ile repeated that no * law could settle the price of corn ; but they w ere bO un d to derive all that could be expected frominquiry and f a i r rea son. Taking this view of - the question, h e f e l t b oun d to support the motion. He felt it unnecess ar y t o rep l y to what had been stated by the Noble Earl, on the autherity of Varro and Columella, of the former state of Rome and its provinces, as he did not Consider it by any in'eans a vase in point. Nothing could be' more different than the pre sent state of Europe from its former state of marshes and fereste. He trusted the Bill before their Lordships would fix the basis of our corn trade on a' firm and stable footing. The Earl of MALMESBURY would observe, that the. Noble Lord on the cross-bancli appeared to have mistaken the ;Anion made by the Noble Earl opposite as to the former state of Rome. If he understood the _Noble *Earl, 'all he meant to say was, that the policy of the Roinans in compelling their distant and newly conquered provinces to furnish corn for the capital, had the effect of destroying all agriculture in the home provinces ; and this the Noble Viscount would, upon referring to history, find to be the . fact.. If so, then, he contended, that the comparisOn Was perfectly applicable. He for one felt the great importance of the question before their Lordships ; he had ever held the opinion, that up to a certain point a prohibition of the importation of corn ought to exist; and he confessed, that if lie entertained that opinion before, b e was much strengthened in it by the experience of the past year- A Right Hon. Gentleman who had devoted much time to the subject, and who was known to have deeply studied it, had proposed a certain scale of duties last year, in which he stated that there required a protecting duty of 245. Gd. On the scale at which his protection commenced. Th at measure was not adopted, and this year the Right Hon,. 'Gentleman found that he was wrong , and felt it neeessoy t o retrace his steps. lie approved of the present Bill upon one point—that it would tend to establish in this country a Attie of independence as to the supply of the primary ar ticles Of subsistence. The language of the Legislature to the producers ought to be, " we give you the exclusive supply of the market, so long as you produce those articles which are wanted at reasonable prices; but when the price gets beyond that, you must allow us to derive some assist ance from the foreign growers." Was it not possible to accomplish such an,object by permitting the admission of foreign prod uce .? H e had never met with any-anet llft° ~ this last argument. Why not prohibit th e importat grain when it i s b e l ow a certa i n fi xe d point, so)" 6 ' pe 'or 645. ; but, by th e p resen t system , t h e fa rmer . way ct o safe. The fine Dantzic wheat was equal to that of and might now be imported to the injury of the "'Jo grower. But a number of merchants might s peculOg the importation of foreign grain to the amount of thOo. four . hundred thousand quarters, and they might The creditors might urge them for paymen t o they might afterwards seize this grain, and it to market at a loss of thirty, forty, or 0 per cent. The speculators might .be ruined, but ri/ would not be th e only persons r u i ne d ; th e agr icultuo would likewise suffer by this foreign produce being br 'it into the market.
