The fdlowing further papers relative to the affairs of Canada, in continuation of the papers already pre sented, were laid on the table of both Houses of Par liament on Friday. _ _ _ by Lord Metcalfe, who state in their• report that the claims which they recognised represent a sum total of 241,9651. 103. 5d.; but that, in their opinion, the sum of 100,000/. would be nearly equivalent to the losses suf fered, and sufficient to meet the amount of such claims as shall have been the object of a close examination. " 11. Notwithstanding, however, the extent to which the preceding Government and Parliament itself appeared to be committed to the principle, and even to the details of this measure of indemnity for Lower Canada, the most vehement and unrelenting opposition was raised to it, both within the walls of the Legislature and beyond them. It was contended that, whereas the destruction of property which took place in Lower Canada was generally the work of the military or volunteers em ployed in suppressing a rebellion, it was in Upper Canada as generally the work of traitors or sympathisers who were engaged in raising one; that the two cases re quired, therefore, a different treatment, and that a more stringent rule ought to have been applied to test the va• lidity of claims to indemnify in the Lower than in the Upper Province. To this it was answered that the principle on which the Bill was framed had already been acted upon in Upper Canada, and that Parliament, by its unanimous vote, had given a pledge that it should be likewise applied to Lower Canada; that it was notorious that much property belonging to unoffending persons had been wantonly destroyed in this section of the pro vince during the rebellion; that it was false to affirm that the measure was intended for the benefit of rebels; that, on the contrary, all convicted rebels, as well as those who, having confessed their guilt, were sent to Bermuda, were expressly excluded; and that for the rest the Commissioners appointed under the Act would be bound under the sanction of an oath, precisely in the same way as the Commissioners of Upper Canada had been before them, to examine minutely into the justice of all claims preferred before them, and to apportion the indemnity according to the true intent and meaning of the Act.

By the operation of the same principles, the Society is enabled to afford to the public a plan of Deferred Annuities far more advanta geous than any hitherto offered, whereby an individual, by the con tribution of a very small annual, monthly, or weekly saving, may se cure either a comfortable provision for himself in advanced age, or, at his option, a large sum of money, or a policy to his family at his death; while by giving to the purchaser, at any time, the power of borrowing two-thirds of all previous payments, it removes all risk of forfeiture from inability to continue premiums, besides affording an ample resource during sickness and want of employment ; and Should the purchaser die before arriving at the stipnlated period, two thirds of his payments will be returned to his representatives. The following Table is a specimen of the great and varied advan tages which the judicious application of a small saving can secure hrough this Society.

SOUTHAMPTON, MONDAY NlGHT. — Considerable ex citement was created here this morning, in consequence of a man of the name of Holloway, a labourer, having been brought before the borough magistrates, charged with causing the death of his son, a boy about ten years of age, by inflicting a number of wounds on the head and body of the poor little fellow with a leather strap, on the end of which a buckle was attached. From the evidence it appeared that the deceased child had been ordered by the prisoner not to leave his home during the day, buZ, had done so ; and on the prisoner's coming home at night, somewhat in liquor, he fol lowed the deceased child into his bed-room, and beat him with the strap in a most unmerciful manner. After a short interval he repeated the chastisement, and at this time inflicted a fatal blow on the head. The pri soner then brought the child down stairs, and applied some water to his face, but life was quite extinct. The body and head of the deceased presented a most shocking appearance, and evident:ed the brutal flogging he had received from his unnatural parent. The whole of the evidence having been gone through, the prisoner was remanded until Thursday next. The coroner's inquisi• tion took place this evening, but was adjourned until Thursday, for the purpose of allowing time for a pose mortem examination of the body.

THE EARL OF ELGIN AND KINCARDINE TO EARL GREY. " Government House, Montreal, May 5,1849. "(Received May 22, 1849.) " My Lord,—ln consequence of the excitement which the passage of the measure for the indemnification of parties in Lower Canada, whose property was de stroyed during the rebellion of 1337 and 1838, has occasioned, and of the desire expressed in certain quar ters that her Majesty's power of di►allowance should be exercised in this instance, I think it my duty to furnish your Lordship with a report upon it in anticipation of the usual period for the transmission of the Bills of the session. It will be necessary, however, before I proceed to explai❑ its provisions, to submit a statement of the circumstances which led to its introduction. • " 2. In the last session of the Parliament of Upper Canada an Act was passed, entitled An Act to ascer tain and provide for the payment of all just claims aris ing from the late rebellion and invasion of the province.' The intention o f this Act would seem to have been to provide indemnity only for owners of property which had been destroyed by rebels and sympathisers from the States. But in the first session of the United Parlia ment, an amended Act was passed (4 and 5 Viet., c. 39), which contains the following clause:—' And be it enacted that the powers vested in, and the duties re quired of, the said Commissioners. under. the said Act, shall extend and be construed -to extend to inquire into all losses sustained by her Majesty's subjects and other residents within that part of this province to which the said Act extends, from the first breaking out of the said rebellion to the passing of the said Act, and the several claims and demands which have accrued to any such persons by such losses, in respect of any loss, destruction or damage of property occasioned by violence on the part of persons in her Majesty's service, or by violence on the part of persons acting, or assuming to act, on behalf of her Majesty, in suppression of the said rebel. lion, or for the prevention of further disturbances, and all claims arising under, or in respect of, the occupation of any house or premises by her Majesty's naval or mili tary forces, either imperial or provincial.' " I do not find that any objection was taken by the Home Government to the principle or details of either of these Acts, except on the ground that the preamble of the first, as it was originally introduced, contained a pledge, which was afterwards, on Lord John Russell's remonstrance, expunged, that the indemnity in question should form a charge on the Imperial Treasury. " 3. On the question of providieg funds for the pay ment of the indemnity thus voted, considerable difference of opinion appears, however, to have prevailed in the Local Parliament. The leaders of the Liberal party generally contended that it would be unjust to make it a charge on the resources of the united province, without extending a similar boon to Lower Canada, and that it would be inexpedient to saddle on the general revenue so considerable an additional burden as the joint indem nities would probably amount to. No steps were ac cordingly taken during the subsistence of the first Bald win and Lafontine Administration. In 1845, however, Lord Metcalfe's Conservative Council proposed that a special fund, derived from tavern and marriage licences, which formed part of the revenue of the Consolidated Fund, and was more productive in Upper Canada than Lower Canada, should be surrendered to the municipali ties; and that in Upper Canada it should, in the first place, be charged with the payment of the indemnity. This proposal was carried through Parliament. On the same day, however, and at an earlier hour, the follow ing resolution was adopted by the House of Assembly unanimously:— " Resolved,—That an humble address be presented to his Excellency the Governor- General, praying that his Excellency will be pleased to cause proper measures to be adopted, in order to insure to the inhabitants of that portion of this province, formerly Lower Canada, in demnity for just losses by them sustained during the re bellion of 1837 and 1838: "4. In order that the scope and purpose of the ad dress thus unanimously voted, and of the measures taken by the Government upon it, may be properly under stood, it is necessary that attention should be directed to the following circumstance:—Ordinances were passed by the Special Council in the years 1838 and 1839, under which the losses of those loyal inhabitants of the pro vince whose property had been destroyed while they were supporting the Government had been ascertained and reported upon. It was, therefore, clearly the in tention of the Government and Parliament, in the pro ceedings adopted at this period, to extend the indemnity beyond that limit. "5. The mode of getting 6ver "* the pecuniary difficulty in the case or the indemnit . was d,,,-4_t -k-_+,- :tiril;;;ilOnsi;ly . thg.,,Pkrasfinnt it'ifas — ii way s been contended by those who opposed the plan, that, as in the financial arrange ments cqnsequent on the union between the provinces, Lower Canada had by no means the best of the bargain, it was not fairingi've,up a portion of the common fund, to which' the tiiitAr happened to contribute more largely than the lower province, witlibut granting an equivalent to the latter. " 6. The Commissioners appointed to apportion the in demnity in Upper Canada appear to have been unfettered by any special instructions, and to have acted under the provisions of the Acts to which I have referred, which give large discretionary powers. At the close of their labours they d. livered to the Government lists of the claims rejected or allowed by them, without, however, any s•atement of the grounds of their decision. There is no reason to doubt they discharged their trust with fidelity. During the course of the recent debates in Par liament quotations were, however made from these lists, with the view of showing that in some instances the names of persons who had been actually convicted of treason appeared upon them as recipients of indem nity. Much irritating discussion took place on this point; for, while on the one hand the Conservative op position affirmed that such cases were both few in num ber and defensible on special grounds, Mr. Papineau and his adherents contended that the insertion of a clause in the Lower Canada Act, excluding persons so situated from participating in the indemnity fund on any pretext whatsoever, was only a fresh proof of the invidious dis tinction between the provinces, constantly made to the disadvantage of Lower Canada. " 7. In pursuance of the address of the Assembly above quoted, Commissioners were appointed to inquire into the claims of persons in Lower Canada whose property was destroyed during the rebellion in 1837 and 1838. I en close herewith copies of the document under which they were appointed, and of the instructions by which it was accompanied and followed. Your Lordship will observe that the Commissioners were directed to classify the cases of those who may have joined in the said rebellion or any- have been aiding and abetting therein, from the cases of those who did not; and when they inquired through their secretary how they were to establish such a classification, they were answered by Mr. Secretary Daly, under the authority of the Governor in Council, in the following terms e — , In making out the classification called for by yo ur i nstructions of the 12t h o f December last, it is nut his E xce ll ency ' s intent i on t h a t you should be guided by any oth er d escript i on o f ev id e nce than that furnished by the sent ences of the cour t s of law.' "8. The Commissioners furnished their report (a copy of which I inclose) in April, 1846 ; Mr. Daly having, on the 2d of that month, i nt i mate d to them, in a letter marked immediate,' that hi s E xce llency was desirous to be enabled to come t o an ear l y d ec ision as t o th e course to be taken by the Executive- during the session of Parliament in regard to the same. It does not, how hebrasrtewenphsiofefrho a he were iml otffika result,en mattere dto v e et March, al e a r dcpbhpyiatl hrrBee4iBAdministrationthat t barren retired lit cannot be supposed that th e proceedings which I have cir cumstance only goes to p rove the great difficulty of dealing with the question sat i s f actorily. " 9. Such was the state, ho wever, in which this ques tion s stood when the present Gov ernment came into office. That they should propose to found a measure on what their predecessors had done in the mat ter was to be ex pected, and I do not think that I should b e justified in risking a Ministerial crisis at a time w h en my Council was supported by the large majority o f a recently e 3 in this belonged, thisA elected Assembly, by refusing to permit the introduc tion of a Bill which was similar to one that had already been passed for the benefit of Upper Canada, and which seemed, moreover, to be nothing more than the :strict logical consequence of preliminary measures adopted by the Local Government and Parliament under former Governors. ienli of which a co py i s anada, who sus t a i ne d order to r e d eem th e 1 837-1838, o r t o th e i r pledgeherewith T ui vr e h ei n e nn c g l t p o o r s t e e ph d a ae m , r d t b ri e e l e c e sb l e a i o ln r efi Lowero s t n h t b e , a i a t B i bona file creditors, assigns, or ayant droit, by the address of the Assembly, the appointment of .a commission, and the correspondence of the Government above referred to, it is necessary and just that the particulars of such losses not yet satisfied should form the subject of more minute inquiry under legislative authority, and that the same, so far only as they may have arisen from the total or partial, unjust or wanton destructio n of the dwellings, buildings, property, and effects of the said inhabitants, and from the seizure, taking, or carrying away of their property and effects, should be paid and satisfied, pro vided that none of the persons who have been convicted of high treason, alleged to have been committed in that part of this province formerly the province of Lower Canada, since the Ist day of November, 1637; or who, having been charged with high treason, or other offences of a treasonable nature, and having been committed to the custody of the sheriff in the gaol of Montreal, sub mitted themselves to the will and pleasure of her Majesty, and were thereupon transported to her Majes ty's island of Bermuda, shall be entitled to any indemnity for losses sustained during or after the said rebellion, or in consequence thereof. "It authorises the appointment of commissioners for the purpose of the Act, and the issue of debentures to the amount of 100,000/, 10,000/. of which, however, are set apart to make good claims allowed by the com missioners appo i nte d un d er the o r di vance of the Special Council; 1 9toh,eosoeo/p.arretmteauilnerfeor the e e special merely adopts the purposes of the recommendation of the Qcquinissivuers of Inquiry named " 12. The opposition raised to the Bill in Parlia ment was echoed out of doors. A considerable number of petitions against it were sent up from different parts of the province. It is remarkable that although these petitions were prepared while the measure was still in progress through Parliament, and in many instances, as appears from incorrect statements contained in them, before its provisions were accurately known, the great majority were addressed to me, but few comparatively being presented to either branch of the Legislature. Whether from the belief that it was hopeless to attempt to cause their views to prevail with the representatives of the people, or from some other motive which may not be so easily intelligible at a distance, it seems to have been from the first the determination of the oppo sition to force me to join issue with the local Parliament upon this most delicate and exciting question. "13. The petitions addressed to me on this subject generally concluded with the prayer that I should either dissolve Parliament, or reserve the Bill, when it reached me, for the signification of her Majesty's pleasure. The former of these courses was obviously lull of hazard, and could only have been justified by the pressure of an overbearing necessity and the clearest prospect of success. The Parliament had been but recently elected under the auspices, not of the Ministry, but of the Opposition. To have recourse to a geheral election, in order to test the feelings of the people on this exciting topic, was to provoke in many parts of the country scenes of violence, per haps of bloodshed. Moreover, a dissolution implied a change of administration, and if it failed of its object, its only effect would be to implant suspicion and mutual distrust between the representatives of the Crown and the local Parliament. I was bound, there fore, as it appeared to me, to weigh all probabilities care fully before resorting to so desperate an expedient. The best consideration which I was able to bestow upon the subject, led me to the conclusion that a dissolution of Parliament, under the circumstances in which the pro vince was placed, would not have been justifiable, either in principle or policy. 14. The other course suggested by the petitioners, viz., that of reserving the Bill, was undoubtedly more safe and practicable. Perhaps if I had consulted in this matter only my own ease I might have been induced to follow it; but I felt that after what had occurred with respect to indemnity in Upper Canada, I could hardly fail to cause just umbrage to Parliament if I declined to sanction the Bill which it had passed for the benefit of sufferers in Lower Canada. I analysed with care all the votes of the Assembly, and I found that, on the passing of the Bill, forty-seven voted for,__ and 18 against the measure; that of 31 members from Upper Canada who voted on the occasion, 17 supported and 14 opposed it; and that of 10 members from Lower Canada of British descent, 6 supported and 4 opposed it. These facts seemed altogether irreconcileable with the allega tion that the question was one on which the two races were arrayed against each other throughout the , pro vince generally. I consider therefore her poivasdopsma which ought, in the Instance at least, LU itso. ' ..rt shoulders, that I should awaken in the minds or Inc pcopte at large, even of those who were indifferent or hostile to the Bill, doubts as to the sincerity with which it was intended that constitutional government should be carried on in Canada; doubts which it is my firm conviction, if they were to obtain generally, would be fatal to the con nexion. " At any rate, however, this is a point which can be determined only by the Government of the Queen. If I have erred, the error is not irreparable. Should your Lordship be of opinion that there is in the character of this measure some specialty which ought to have removed it from the category of local questions on which the local Parliament is entitled to pronounce, I shall at once bow to your decision, confident that Sou will still give me credit for having, under circumstances of no ordinary difficulty, acted with a sincere desire to per form my duty to her Majesty, and to promote the best interests of the colony. " I have, &c., " ELGIN AND KINCARDINE. " The Right Hon. Earl Grey, &c." The following is the reply of Lord Grey to Lord Elgin's first dispatch describing the outbreak in Mon treal:— " Downing-street, May 18. "My Lord,—l have received and laid before the Queen your Lordship's dispatch of the 30th of April, giving an account of the scenes by which the city of Montreal has been disgraced, and in the course of which the building occupied by the Provincial Parliament has been destroyed by fire. "I am commanded by her Majesty to inform your Lordship that while she has received with very great concern the intelligence of these deplorable events, they have not impaired the confidence which her Majesty has hitherto felt in your ability and judgment, and that she continues to regard your administration of the affairs of the province as meriting her entire appro bad )n. " Upon the Act of the Provincial Parliament which has afforded a pretext for the outrages which have been committed, it is the duty of her Majesty's servants to reserve their judgment until we shall be in possession of the full information which you lead me to expect, as to its character and objects; but, whatever may be the view which may be taken of the merits of that measure, there can be but ono opinion as to the guilt of those who, in resistance to law constitutionally passed by the Pro vincial Legislature, have had recourse to violence of so disgraceful a character, or as to the very serious respon sibility incurred by all who have even by the imprudence of their language, assisted in producing the excitement which has led to such lamentable results. Her Ma jesty's servants entirely concur with your Lordship as to the consequences which must follow from submitting to the kind of dictation by which it has been attempted on this occasion to overrule the decision of the legally constituted authorities of the province, and they confi dently rely upon your firmness, supported, as I trust you will be, by the Parliament and the great majority of the people of Canada, to enforce for the future obedience to the law, and to compel those who may disapprove of the measures either of the legislative or executive govern ment of the province, to confine their opposition within legal and constitutional limits. " I appreciate the motives which have induced your Lordship to offer the suggestion with which your dis patch concludes; but I should most earnestly deprecate the change it contemplates in the Government of Canada. Your Lordship's relinquishment of that office, which under any circumstances would be a most serious loss to her Majesty's service, and to the province, could not fail, in the present state of affairs, to be most injuri , ous to the public welfare, from the encouragement which it would give to those who have been concerned in the violent and illegal opposition which has been offered to your Government. I also feel no doubt that when the present excitement shall have subsided, you will succeed in regaining that position of ' dignified neutrality' be coming your office, which, as you justly observe, it has hitherto been your study to maintain, and from which, even those who are at present most opposed to you will, on reflection, perceive that you have been driven, by no fault on your part, but by their own unreasoning violence. " Relying, therefore, upon your devotion to the in terests of Canada, I feel assured that you will not be in. duced by the unfortunate occurrences which have taken place to retire from the high office which the Queen has been pleased to entrust to you; and w hich, from the value she puts upon your past services, it is her Majesty's anxious wish that you should retain.—l have,‘,Stc., GREY. " The Earl of Elgin and Kincardine, &c." THE FIRE AT BERMONDSEY.--ille official report returns the greatest portion of Mr. Clapham's property as being destroyed, and the foreman's house adjoining considerably damaged by fire. The premises and con tents were insured in the Sun. The bark-houses, mills, and leather -houses of Mr. Ilugman are also returned as being all but d es t ro yed, and t he Fellmongers' Arms Tavern, on the opposite side of the road, the property of Mr. C. Head, as damaged by fire. Mr. Hagman was in sured in the Sun office. METTERNICH THE OLDEST INHABITANT.--We have at length discovered who that remarkable indivi dual so often alluded to by penny-a-liners must be—the oldest' inhabitant. Everybody has heard Prince Motternich's famous bon mot, " After me the deluge." The Austrian statesman, according to this account, must have smuggled himself into the ark unknown to Noah, and be in consequence about 4,000 years a age,—The Puppet IShotc. It is said of the Emperor of China that he stops the pay of all his physicians whenever be falls sick, and never resumes it until he feels hirnselUonvales cent. Some less civilized oriental potentates go on cutting off the heads of their doctors until their dis temper is removed. They do not stop to inquire whether it is the leech's fault that they have a head ache, or their own. They only know that they are ill, and that they keep a medicine man, and that he must contrive somehow to keep his patient sound in wind and limb, or else " there will be the devil to pay, and no pitch hot." So it is with the sa gacious British public. If the ledger has a queer look, and customers are scarce in the front shop—if the mills fall to half time, and the slug takes the wheat—if wages are low and rates are high—no goods on the wharf, and ships have to go in ballast, and bills are dishonoured, and thousands of pounds are owing, and no money coming in, John Bull looks no further th an t o t h e luckless Ministry, Whig or Tory, Protectionist or Free Trade, which happens to be in power, but manfully resolves that whereas they are in, they must in "double quick time bundle out. If the bread-tax reigns when his travellers write I home that all the customers require more time, then it is the bread-tax that is ruining trade. If free trade predominates when his acceptances are returned on his hands, then it is "those cursed political economists that are at the bottom of all this." Like the fine gentleman who, cleaned out and hunted by duns, , makes a pair of dumb-bells of the boot-jack and his tiger's head, so John Bull, when bad times make him sulky, seizes the first thing that comes to hand to be revenged, and that first thing being her Majesty's Ministers, they are bow-strung by the fury of enlightened public opinion. Then is the time for the Opposition to get up a " good cry" to be re venged upon the good cry which the Ins got up against them when they were the Oats. Then is the time when, " anything for a change," they would prefer Satan himself; on the wrong side of the House, to the angel Gabriel on the Treasury benches. Vtre are now in the access of this fever. French Re volutions, and Red Republicans, and Communisms— Italian triumvirs, Sicilian rebellions, Hungarian troubles, and universal turnings upside down, coupled with Irish treasons and English Chartist plans of general conflagration, have so arrested trade, and stopped business, that conversions to Toryism may be reckoned by tens of thousands among the electoral body. There is a decided reaction among many towards Conservatism. But this tendency might, perhaps, be more than counterbalanced by the inclination which gains ground among the Anti-Corn law Leaguers to finish the work they have begun by following up their advantage in a united effort to attain an extensive measure of organic reform. It is here that the middle and working classes seem in clined to meet on common ground, each to give and take for the sake of that union which is emphatically strength. We should ill perform our duty, however, as " the abstract and brief chronicle of the time," if we did not warn our friends of a very imminent peril which at this moment hangs over the principles of pro gressive liberty. We see many indications of a rather decided reaction towards the doctrines of Protection. "As the bell clinks the fool thinks." Every man who has a grievance goes to Catiline Stanley to be revenged upon the State. The decaying shopkeeper, the struggling merchant, the unemployed mechanic, the nervous shipowner, are all just in the humour to fly at anything which promises a change. The farmers, one after another, are throwing up their farms, keeping their sons from taking any which are to let, toasting " Peel to the Devil" to the very lees of their bottle of bad port at the market ordinary, holding meetings, sending deputations, hawking about petitions, and wear ing out the knocker of No. 1, New Bond.street, to " see what's to be done about it;" and the no • bility are beginning in earnest to try their old game of popularity-hunting, and " fighting the battle of the Constitution in the Registration Courts." Mark our words. There is a central office in London where have been collected the registers of every county and borough in the kingdom. The Protectionists are I even now quietly, but effectively busy with their objections. If they can steal a march on the Liberals they will. and we call upon our friends, as speedily as „cs:me, to provide proper guardians of their franchise in every electoral district, if they would prevent a surprise which may saddleby . in eyjl.t 1 21 f,k i k ea r i cfAr formers, in looking for more, neglect to secure what they have got. Free Trade is yet in danger. We must not go back, by forgetting where it is we stand, in our eagerness to go forward. The shipping monopolists are powerful at the outports. The farmers are desperate in the counties. The country tradesmen are sulky and eaten up with poor-rates in the agricultural boroughs. The Irish Members are either furious at the Rate in Aid, or quite ready to be bribed by railway grants, or other less public-spirited coasiderations. The country gentlemen are rattling the dice for their last throw. It may be necessary to commission, indeed we think there is no time to be lost in again sending forth, the lecturers of the League. A new phasis of the question demands novel illustrations. The tenantry of the kingdom are in a declining con dition, and as the year wears on, as our own crops promise abundance, and foreign importations accumu late, their pro3pects will become rapidly worse. On all hands we hear of farms upon farms thrown upon the owners' bands, and an absence of offers for renewals. Men whose whole ar rangements have been made upon the theory that scarcity was profit, and abundance ruin, have much to suffer, and more to learn, before they can adjust their calculations to a more natural and humane sys tem of agricultural polity. " Here comes a farmer, who hath hanged himself on the expectation of plenty" was a possibility not alone in the age of Shakspere. We anticipate, and have not hesitated to predict, a season of deep bucolic tribula tion. We believe the fortunes of the tenantry to be in the most desperate state, and to demand our immediate and first and best attention. There are fifteen millions of acres of waste lands in those islands capable of profitable cultivation, besides a vast tract of deserted farms in Ireland. lVe shall not be sorry to see half the farms in England thrown up. That is the only way to enforce a reduction of rent, and to compel the landlords to dictate economy in the public expenditure and retrenchment in tithes. We trust that it will have the effect of entirely abo lishing the law of settlement, so as to enable the poor to obtain relief wherever they please, to equalize the burden of poor-rates, and to levy them by a general equal impost over the whole kingdom. The condition of the five and ten acre tenantry of Bel gium, and of Ireland under Mr. Blacker, proves how infinitely more productive our land may be made by an extension of small holdings. There are 1,000 families, embracing 5,000 individuals, comfortably, respectably, independently provided for on 5.,000 Belgian ,000 Belgian acres, of far inferior land to that which is held by a single farmer in Northamptonshire, who provides, on the whole, for not above 100 labourers, or 500 individuals. These labourers can scarcely afford any encouragement to the home trade, while their em ployer produces not one-half the quantity of food on his huge holding, which is raised by his humble Bel gian rivals, and is unable to afford his landlord much more than half the same amount of rent. Among all these peasants of the Netherlands also there is not to be found a single pauper, while our agriculture has to support three millions and a half, at a cost of nearly 8,000,000 sterling. It is mere cant in our politico economical ignoramuses to talk about the economy of producing food with fewer hands, when to do so we only make "wealth accumulate and men decay." It is to small purpose that we employ horses on the farm only ghi by sending men into the workhouse at a cost nd boy of eight millions a year. For every 50 acres at leas t a coupl e of horses are employed, and a ploughm ana to hold and drive. In much of the land at least three are used. Each horse costs annually for horses, 301, besides his price—so that for 50 acre s and 271. for man and boy , o r 11 71. in all, is re quired 9 the ex p ; e add ndi tu r e ss wil al reach n acrec 130 f l. r 'this sr-sruatm would find find wages for seven labourers, and maintenance for is only 7 acres to each under s 35 individuals. The culture of sp s a o d a e cr h e u s amongshand husbandry, and we have no hesitation in saying they could till at least double that q uantity, or 100 acres, and that they are thus actually more economical than horses, besides being infinitely more productive, experiments having shown that the spade produces half as large a crop aga i n as can be raised by the plough. It is not without deep regret that we regard the anxiety and distress of our honest yeomen, and the compulsory migration of our industrious peasantry. We would, for this kingdom's sake, far rather keep them at home; and, that we may do so without ruin to themselves and the country, there is no safe expe dient but the reforms we have indicated. Protection is gone—high prices can never return—there is no remedy but in diminished burdens, rents, rates, and tithes, and the reclamation of waste lands. Let us all strive manfully and lawfully for these ends, in the assurance that in them lie the redemption of agricul ture and the safety of the kingdom.— WeeklyDispalch.
