LONDON JOU aNALS. [DAILY ..EXPlirleTS'.l FROM THE MORNINV PAPERS. [Morning .Past.] The : House of Peers re-assemble to-morrow ; tud on Thumlay their Lordships will proceed . to the examination , of tlie witnesses against the Queen. ~Most of the Judges will be present; and her Majesty', we are assured, persists in her extraordinary determination of attending daily in the house to hear the evidence against her!! The examination of the witnesses in support of tile charges will commence every morning at ten o'clock and continue till three in the afternoon; :.nd is expected to last eight or nine days. The Queen will then have whatever delay she may require, to prepare her defence and procure wit nesses but it is not expected that much time. . will be required, for the latter purpose, as most of the persons intended to be called are already on their way .to this country. The whole of the proceedings in both Houses are therefore ex pected to be terminated before the end of Sep tember. As the public peace is so seriously me= raced on this o:-casion, Government have naturally had reconve ,to the necessary measures of pre caution to frustrate the' diabolical revolutionary views of the disaffected. Orders have been issued for all the Police Magistrates and officers to be on.duty ; and an immense number of special con stables will be sworn in. The military will very properly be on the alert, and parties of horse and foot will be stationed in different parts of the Metropolis. The Volunteer Cavalry will also be ready to act in case- of necessity. The River Fencibles, as we have already stated, will be on . duty. The police tender, generally stationed beVreen Blackfriars and IVestminster Bridges, has,been removed to the station assigned her in front of Palace-yard ; she will be occupi,•' by the Thames police, who are to be called intoac tisity, in union with . the rest of the police of the metropoliS.. Three gun=boats will be placed neat her, as a guard to keep' off all boats from ap.:' proaching Cotton-yard without special permis • sion. It is reported in themilitary circles that four camps are about to be' formed ; the two con:. sisting of the greatest number of troops are to be, the one on Hounslow-heath, and the other on Black-heath. Almost every town and village at - fr:Oin ten to fifteen .miles round the metropolis has at this time parties of the Military, horse and .loot, quartered at the several inns and public.: houses: [Morning Chronicle.] Her Majesty's Legal Advisers will now have daily consultations upon the subject of her de fence. It is anticipated that they will permit the examination of the witnesses for the Crown to bp concluded in chief, before they enter upon their cross-examination. The witnesses will afterwards, be re-called on, the defence.—A ridi 7 calous apprehension it seems was entertained by so persons-, that an attempt might be made to carp' off the. Queen by water from Brandenburgh House, to elude the inquiry—and this was men tioned .to her -.Majosty,with such apparent prOba bilkty., that though she treated it with indifference, y,:t a number of young m9u undertook to watch: ± house every night. Nothing could be more couLemptible than such a suspicion. This is . not the country for such exploits [Mornin g Herald.] The House of Lords meets on Tuesday, for the!dispatch of ordinary business.

UpOlit this. Unhappy question what can be profit ably -said at this moment ? But too much has best ,said upon it already. We' should mention, • ItiivAver, that it has been stated to us,' that her Majesty Wends to put upon record on the pro cetidiugs,:a protest against the mode of inquiry wfai liar lx,k.e:ti adopted in her case.

Timbet in the British Market ?—Yes. Do you considi:e that nrrangement ns of great advantage to the Canada Landholder ?—I do not consider that arrange ment is . heneficial to' the Canada Land Owner; hccatt.e the value ot the Timber (I speakhoth of yel low and red pine Timber 'lialtieulitrly) sold at Quebec, does notexcemihy much the ex pellee and labourof procuring it for ; and the Utt• mula Landholder, therefore, gets little or uut hing for the Thuber itself. / Is there not an advantage arising to the Land O►ttter from the circumstance of hi, labour living cml. l oYeil in Cutlid>; Timber during the Winter ?—I should say, very littie• Then' are many other purposes to which the hbour could be applied very beneficially, besides preparing Timber far shipment ; particularly in clearing the Lands and in burning the Timber for making pot :liilol3, or in cutting Timber fur fuel, which is a great occupation. — ls the Thither cut by the labourers employed in agriculture at other times, or by whom is it cut ?—The Timber for Ex pariatiiin is principally cut by a class of ptrsons called Timber Cutters, who cut it during the NVinter season, and are cnt plored during the Summer in rafting it dawn to lite port of slripment, and very seldom by persons cntvloyed in the agri-, culture of the Country. the - extended - demand for Canada Timber, in conse quence of the arrangement of I)ulies, occasioned a great -number of people to relol t to should have some difficulty in answering that question, because I have nut been in Canada for the last two or three yeats, but •1 should cer tainly think that many ut the immense number of persons Who have emigrated there lately, may have been employed in preparing Timber fur shipment; but I ,caiinet coiterive that 'Alas formed any part of the inducements those persons have had to emigrate, front this Count ry. _ Is !bete not a period of the sear during which those per sons employed in cutting and preparing the Timber have not occupation in that line?—During: a : very short period of the year. The Timber is gei;er'ally cut in the Antonio, when the 'leaves fall ; and as soon its they can - niake 'Winter Snow Roads, it is hauled . ow' of the Woods to the water side, and when at the water side,, it is there, squared and prepared for rafting, Th . e Smuttier season is generally employi.iF in Carrying it down in rafts to ( tiebee; and there is very little intermediate space of. time between those employments for, the persons,so viigitgel to turn their labour to any other occupation. .

Yale have said that the alteration in the Corn Laws whia • you have mentioned, would he a full equivalent to Canati for taking off the protecting Duties on the Baltic Timber; and at the. same time you have said, that that you conceivti would be hut a very small matter either to . England or VI Canada; f heti you mean to say, that the taking off of thes6, Duties would lie a matter of very small importance to Else, laud either have already stated to the Committee, that my evidence has been principally directed to the Landed In= I crest of Canada. The Commercial Interest would undoubt , ‘ edly stiffer to the extent of throwing ouf of employment the various Establishmeots which have been formed for the pugs pose of Carrying on this Trade. 'the Landed Interest of Ca nada has never been Materially interested in it, and the sug ,estiort which I ventured to offer, was in the expectation that if the prottetiod was taken from the Canada Timber s the , labourers elnplOved in that Trade might deride their time to Agriculture, and that a free exportation of Corn to this' Country won'd hold out the best prospect of no loss accruiait to such persons by the change of their employments. Then dei not you consider what you have suggested, as a Boom to the Landed Proprietor, at the expence of the Trad ing Community ?-1 cannot conceive that any Bonus intend ed to one class of persons in Canada, would not materiatlye ; if not equally almost, benefit the - ather, because the produce arising from the extension of Agriculture would be a muclt, better means of carrying on Trade, even to a greats r'exteltt• than the means derived from the exportation of Timber. Do not you lielieve that won't] be an immediate injury to, those persons employed in the cutting of Timber, in tht/Se. EitatqlollllCptS to which you have alluded have alreadi stated, that certainly those persons who have farmed Est 3 ' htishments with a view to the continuance of this Trade, must be marvrially injured front any alteration of the Duties. Do not von believe it would put ant of employment tkat class of individuals who are employed in Lotting Tinit7er?- -- • Stich persons would be much better employed, both AllrOs their own comfort and interests, and as respects the welfare of the Province its agricultural pursuits, than ii i this Trade. You have stated, that the Trade; in Timber, as far a, t 146 o w n er or' the w,il is concerned, is of very little importance Very little itideed. Then the principal object, hild which gives is value to the TimbtrTeade, is the labour employed in felling the tree am , preparing it for Market ?-1 have already stated that the la hour so employed is the sole value of tliss . Trade to the Co w l ' try; 1 may say it is so with respect to Pine Tauber, and great delree with respect to Oak Timber. What is the Mode of employment that you would substitute for theie men who would be pia out of their present empler meta by the alteration of the Duties?-1 shuald shy, that the class of persons employed in cutting, l'intlier was 'the wor" part 'of the POpulation of Canada; and as there could be 1 1 ", doubt of their finding , employment in Agricultural pirsalts• , if the Timber Trade of 'Canada was entirely annihilatedt_ flii in jury Ciitild either be sustained by themselves or the triunity by such a change.

And that the great value o f the 'fimber is in the labour te'' ployed upon it ?—Nearly the whole value, of Pine Tinibcr in the labour. Is it not ►hen on account of the value of the Timber, th" the tree is cut down?—lt . account of the value of the Timber to the person who cuts it down ;'but net on accono t of its value to the Proprietor. he itotKr is cut down as'a means of employine, C a pita with profit ?—Yes. • ting ;11,!,e 1 ,, - li i i l . : l t lii t re l i e ttl, l 4, ' ,t r : o ). t:rl,i)leii.:tthe sake of value. inducement roifsti:li: 0 i , f i o d r u c , t .u t small object.
