FROM THE DAILY PAPERS OF YESTERDAY. TIMES.—We recur to-day to the articles of impeachment against Lord Ashburton's treaty. The first objection w hi c h we dealt w i t h yester day, thought insufficient, was yet sound as far as it went. It was tr ue t h at certa i n concess i ons had been made, th oug h not true that t h ose con cessions were sufficient to put us out of humour with the treaty. We proceed now to the attempted cry against the two articles which bear reference to the slave-trade—a cry to which eve cannot give the sante modified acquiescence. Let us see first what they are. The first stipu lates that each party snail maintain on the coast of Africa a squadron of not lens than eighty guns, "to eatbrce separately and respectively the laws, rights, and obligations, of each of the two countries, for the suppression of the slave-trade," the two Governments stipulating, meanwhile to give such orders to the officers in command as shall enable them to act in concert if necessary. By the second, "the parties to the treaty agree that they will unite in all be comiag representations and remonstrances with any and all of the Powers withia whose domi nions such markets are allowed to exist, and urge on such Powers the propriety and duty of closing such markets at once and for ever." On these stipulations our Whig - Contemporary pours luustril' as a degrada tion thbee)i.toidnidgnpartieocneditenctanoi the which is depicted as " going to beg another to help her" in " representing" to Spain and Portu gal the "propriety and duty" of fulfilling their engagements to itself—as a cession of the ex pected right 'of search—a step backwards in the road of abolition, and so on. Now, on the part of Great Britain, it does not of course pretend to be any step at all ; but in its bearing on the United States, tne first article is a plain prac tical stipulation, which, if the Ainericau Govern ment will but appoint a proper person to the command of the African station, may be produc tive of the eighest advantage. This, we believe, the present Executive is inclined to do. And it is much to invest all future Governments with a permanent responsibility of this kind, of which any evasion will be openly and deeply dis creditable. And the second (though it has not much in it) is yet, as far as it goes, "a step" on the .part of America in the right direction ; and though a mere pro fession, not leading to any immediate result, might prove of importance as shaming that Power from interference between us and any third party towards- whom we ourselves were authorised by treaty to use snore effectual means of persuasion than "representation and remon strance." And further, every American decla ration against the slave trade, if it does nothing else, at least strengthens the hands of those of and ask the United her own citizens who are engaged in earnest in is absurd. We its suppression. To say with our Contemporary that by this article " we g o a S r ta e te a s eti to v ' s in pursuit of an object. The United States will co-operate with us to a certain point, but no further. Is it " degrading," is it " imbecile" or useless, to enter into a mutual pledge which, while it ely excludes nothing, secures that co-operation as engagedusto c o o l u sti v u e far as it offers itself'? Is this the way that successful politicians pursue their objects? Do they refuse the pledges of independent allies because they do not go so far as they themselves could wish ? Did Mr. O'Con nell refuse, or would he have been wise in refusing, the alliance of his protege Lord Nor manby, because that Noble Marquis did not go the whole length of repeal? The existence of our more stringent engagements with other Powers —with Spain, and Portugal) and the Brazils— instead of aggravating, excuses the inadequacy of the declaration in which we have joined America, because they witness that the views of England are not confined within the words of that single declaration: they preclude that ex elusive inte r p re t at i on which might otherwise, though unfairly, have been attached to our as sent to this certainly insufficient article. Our Contemporary observes t r uly, that "we might send missions enough to Washington before our good brother Jonathan would snake" any such engagement as it suggests. True. Nor have we any right, if we had the power, without a gross and arrogant interference with national indepen dence, to compel such terms. But the argu ment seems to have lost its way in our Contem porary's columns. It shows the expediency, not of rejecting, but of accepting t h o se engagements which he will make. In a matter so plainly optional, he is even less likely to bullied than to be drawn into compliance with our wishes. CHRONICLE.—If no immediate good from the Peel policy is to be found in the manufac turing districts, where else are we to look for it? Are the agriculturists more at ease than they were? Have they obtained that security against change which was represented, by Sir R. Peel himself, as so vitally essential to their in terests? Why, just now they seem to be giving away their cattle in a fright for the benefit of the butchers. Two million quarters of foreign corn have poured in upon them, at an Ss. duty, in the raonth of harvest. The word " rent" has been reiterated with significant emphasis. The wretched labourers have been rendered yet more wretched by competitive swarms of destitute ope ratives, added to those of the destitute Irish, who are always upon them at harvest time. The small cloud of agricultural distress is already on the verge of the horizon. But the new Bill has let in foreign corn to keep the people from starving; and that fact must be reckoned amongst the operations of the Peel policy. We grant it must; and let us look at the fact, aided by the tables presented by the Quarterly Re view. Between April 28, when the new law came into action, and September 3, there were entered for home consumption, at ten of the principal ports of Great Bri tain, 2,457,931 quarters of wheat and wheat flour, paying a duty of 974,024/., wpch averages Bs. 4d. per quarter. The proposed Whig duty of Bs. per quarter, was actually paid on four-fifths of thewhole quantity. The " pro tection" of the odd fourpence is what the agri culturists have gained, and all they have gained, by the fierce and costly struggle that displaced the late Government and installed its successors. They have paid dearly fbr th e i r most filthy bargain." Were the expenses of the late elec tions in their pockets, the money would be a much better protection. What a bustle for a paltry fourpenny duty ! The whole amount, for the year, would scarcely more ithan cover the cost of a contested election in a large county. And the moral cost, in false promises and yet more deceitful suppressions —in confidence de stroyed and animosities engendered, or aggra vated to ten-fold bitterness; in disgraceful exhi bitions of the ruling few, and pestilential cor ruption amongst the many, is far heavier than the pecuniary cost. , The partisans must be made of no penetrable stuff who can look back on the means by which their fourpenny v i ctory was achieved, and still regard it with complacency. But although the difference be little to the win ners, it is much to the losers. The Bs. duty was proposed as a substitute for other taxation, the Bs. 4d. duty is in addition to a - heavy and new taxation. The one would have been a relief; the other is a pressure. The one would have been levisd instead of more onerous i mposts, and the other is the companion of the In -- co Me-tax. The people would have had the benefit of the first, but the other simply enlarges the resources of the Government. Not in the fourp ean y .. appendage does the difference to the -country practically consist, but in the entire amount. With the modified Whig- bread-tax there 'would have been no Income-tax. With Sir Robert Peel's Income tax he ought to have foregone the whole of the bread-tux. The fourpenny piece sticks in the beam of She balance, a nd throws both weights upon time people's scale. Another material dif ference is that which has been often proved to exist between the operation of a fi xe d duty and a sliding scale; the difference of markeb:, or no markets, for manufacturing -nt " s ",.Y. It is not the saving of the fourpeilees ) but time saving of the American trade, t b s which the manufacturers have struggled. What they witot is th e previous knowledge of the duty which will have to be paid on imported corn, together with the reasonable ness of its amount, so that it comes as a calcul able quantity into the arrangements ofcommerce. The fourpence is an index of uncertainty. The mischief is not in what it does, but in what it re presents. In itself; the additional pressure may be little more than that of a small packet of poison to a heavily-laden porter, but in that 1 AdmissiOn :Is. 6d.—Children ls.

Still there is, as the Quarterly Reviewer argues, "a very unusualsup ply of food for the people," for which, it is as sumed, we should be very grateful to the Peel policy. That the Whig propositian would have spread this supply over idle whole year, instead of concentrating it uponthe period when it most njures the farmer, and least benefits the con umer ; and that it would also have served the industrial classes not less by the regular trade created, than by the food imported; these are p ints on which we shall not now pause to en large. We .restrict ourselves to the writer's view. Here is a munificent provision of food for the starving people by the policy of Sir Robert Peel. And allow us to ask on what conditions? D uring the last fourteen years, the average duty oo foreign corn has been ss. 7d.; in this year of di ificulty, distress, and starvation, the Peel policy has made it Bs. 4d. During those fourteen years, in several of which the harvests were re markably deficient, the average price of wheat was 59s per quarter. in the eighteen weeks of Peel policy the average price is 625.1 d. per quarter. And in these weeks of sufferin , r, so extended as to be properly called national, the amount of direct bread-tax, levied under Sir Robert Peel's Bill, has been very nearly one-fourth of the total amount of duty collected during the last fourteen years. And thus it is that the poor are provided for, when in point of starvation, by the " happy novelty " of Peel policy. These are amongst the "singularly satisfactory results" which have already occurred, and which so delight the heart of the Quarterly Reviewer. We shall speedily resume our analysis of his panegyric. HERALD.—The Chronicle yesterday por tentously announced that a treaty was upon the point of being concluded with Hanover, by which the Stade duties were to be increased. Admit ting such is the fact, what does it amount to ? That class interests will suffer slightly, where general interests are advantaged. in lieu of an arbitrary tax upon property, according to the in terpretation of the imposer, we are to have now an ad valorem duty of one-eighth per cent. upon all articles of merchandise. We are firmly per suaded that a public benefit will accrue thereby, instead of the " flagrant wrong" threatened by the Chronicle; and, as regards the revenue of the King of Hanover, we question if it will be affected in the slightest degree by the change. Whatever may have been the substance of Lord Pahnerston's speech at the close of the session, respecting this dreaded "concession," the quasi merit of its discovery was at any rate not his. His Lordship was not even the pump-handle of the question, but simply the spout. The well was dug by his protege, the late Commissioner Ward, and however brackish the water, it be hoved Lord Palmerston to discharge it. When the subject of the Stade duties was first discussed the then Minister far Foreign Affairs had never even heard of the Castle of Brunshausen, and his only resource was to send somebody into the north to try and learn something about it. With the information thus hastily otained and crudely digested Lord Palmerston began to di plomatise. Luckily we have been spared the result. ADVERTISER.—We learn from private sources of information that the farmers are in a state of the utmost consternation. They are haunted with the tear that before Christmas the price of wheat will be as low as forty-five shil lings per quarter ; iu which case, with their pre sent high rents, they see nothing before them but inevitable and irremediable ruin. Their apprehensions, we have no doubt, are well founded. They persisted in clamouring tbr sliding-scale in preference to a fixed duty, and the operation of that scale has, conjointly with the excellent and ample harvest, produced a state or things which they are led ,to regard as the necessary prelude to their ruin. Let us not be misunderstood. We do not mean to say that with the eight shillings fixed duty, proposed by the Melbourne Ministry, there would not, with such a harvest as the present, be as great a fall in prices as that to which we have referred as likely to take place before Christmas; but we mean to maintain—and no advocate of the landed interest will venture to gainsay our position—that if a moderate fixed duty had been substituted for the sliding-scale, the landlords would have been compelled, as a measure of prudence for themselves, to have made a material reduction in the rents of their tenants, in which case the fall in prices would have been in a great measure, if not wholly, counterbalanced. As it is prices fall with a vengeance; but the tenants must continue to pay—that is to say, if they can—the same rents as when prices were thirty or forty per cent. higher. Hence the effects of a fall in prices fall solely on the farmers; the landed oligarchy, whose vassals they are, have ingeniously con trived, by means of the sliding-scale jugglery, to escape - the consequences of reduced prices altogether. We are gratified to learn that the Anti-Corn-law League are not inactive specta tors of the present state of things among the farmers. They are about to send Anti-Corn-law lecturers into the agricultural districts. The step is a wise one, and - thu time selected singularly seasonable. The lecturers will proselyte the farmers to the principle of Corn-law abolition in thousands. There are whispers of an intention on the part of the landed interest to interdict the entrance ofCorn-law lecturers among the farmers. Let them make the attempt if they are so dis posed. We shall then see whether the Consti tution of England or a mere handful of oligar chists be the victorious party in the contest. POST.—We are told that the only means of restoring and insuring happiness to the people of England is to keep the great factory establish ments in full activity—to increase the proportion of the whole population which is dependent for subsistence on the operations of these establish ments—and if, waiving for a moment the discus sion on the merits of the system, we ask how this factory predominance is to be achieved, the answer is, by making the people consume foreign instead of home grown corn. The general or exclusive consumption of foreign wheat is said to be the sure method to make our manufacturers as flourishing as the most ambitious of them could wish to be. So argue the section of poli ticians who profess to be the most philosophic, the most enlightened, the most liberal. They say to us give up growing food for yourselves— throw yourselves on foreign countries for a sup ply—and foreigners, in return, will take and pay for as much of your cotton, silken, and woollen goods as you can make up fbr them. But it is indispensable that you depend on them for bread. Without this manufacturing pros perity is an impossible dream. While England continues a self-supporting nation—whileEnglish meg persist in eating their own bread—the ma- nufacturing interests never will, and never can, b e i n an y other than a depressed and ruinous condi tion. Foreign corn and factory prosperity mean one and the same thing —they are inseparable, iden tical, and one cannot exist without the other. This is a convenient way of solving the problem of national polity. Unfortunately, however, it will not bear the test of one moment's thought and inquiry. Experience does not confirm the theory—it contradicts and disproves it. Take a period in which the manufacturers were con fessedly prosperous—the years, for instance, be tween 183:2 and 1836. To these years the oppo• rents of the Corn-laws are in the habit of refer- ring as to a period when the millowning interests were in a state of high prosperity. Never were there so many factories open ; never so many workpeople employed in them. Never were larger fortunes made by those whose only notions of duty are concentrated in the pursuit of money making. But in these halcyon days of factory extension what was the extent of corn importa tion ? A mere cipher. No foreign wheat was admitted. We were consuming the produce of our own fields, and yet the factory masters throve and fattened. They grew in wealth and power; they found markets for their goods abroad, though not on the termsof taking wheat in return. GLOBE.—We fancied we had sickened the Post of asking us questions; and we almost begin to believe it does so with a real desire of gaining instruction. This is a wish too laudable not to receive from us every encouragement. We would cherish an interrogative instinct which leeds it to seek what it needs so greatly. We have another Motive besides for giving the Post the instruction which it seeks. The Post is one of our best Foolometers ; as a certain Lord B-- was to Fox. When we have answered the Post, we are sure the " the British Fool" can ask no more questions. " The force of nonsense can no farther go." The following are the Poses interrogatories of this morning:— "We are rather surprised that our generally astute Contemporary should have made so silly a blunder, in comparing the effects of the sliding corn duty with what would have occurred under his favourite eight shilling scheme. He complains that the price of corn ill he favour would uld prevent us with has fallon too low! and says that the fixed d u t y wou ld have prevented this. It is odd enough to h ear hi m his complainingof f cheap proof how the Russe ll this? He say s th a t w heat has suddenly fallen from 61s. to .535., and that the Bs. duty would have kept up the price. Thi s i s wor th l oo ki n g to. Let us see how cor prescription but his theory rests. Under the present scale the duty is I Is. when the prices are at 61s. Does a duty of I Is. tend to reduce prices more suddenly (unnecessarily he says) than one of Bs. ? When prices are at 535. the duty is 18s. Does this run down the article more rapidly than the Globey's everlasting octavo ? It would puzzle even the sharp wits of our lively friend to show how the present duties, at the figures between 61s. and 535., work more for a fall than his own plan. Will he, with all his sharpness, disprove the self apparent fact, that the sliding scale goes altogether to counteract fluctuation—duties falling with rising prices, and vice versa?" We did not complain that the price of corn had fallen too low. We said that a sudden, ma terial, and (had the fixed duty been adopted) unnecessary fall in the price of wheat had taken place, just at the critical moment for the far mer's profits, which fall would have been pre vented, to such sudden and serious extent, had the foreign corn in bond been eaten, during the season when it was most wanted, instead of being pent up, like waters impeded in their natural course, to be forced out all at once, and drown the plains with a sudden inundation. The effect of the sliding scale is to keep corn in bond when folks want to eat it; and to let it out when it is quite certain that folks won't want to eat it, and when speculators dare not hold on any longer for that very reason. We were flooded with foreign corn not till a large supply of our own was coming to market ; and all the time it was really most wanted, we could not have out a grain of it. All the foreign corn we could have got to eat, up to this harvest, would have scantily supplied us, coming in by degrees; —instead of which, ft was hoarded for a still further anticipated fall of our arbitrary scale of duties, and not released till it was quite certain averages would fall and duties rise—i. e., till it was quite certain it was less, or not at all, wanted. This is a pretty illustration of what the Post calls " the self-apparent fact, that the sliding scale goes altogether to counteract fluctuation." STANDARD.—Supposing, contrary to what we believe to be the truth, that Great Britain were overreached in the matter of the boundary, we should be much better pleased that it should be so than that this empire had overreached the Republic. It is not pretended that any sacrifice of interest or security has been made; and such being the case, we give our transatlantic kinsmen joy of what they have obtained. The very tact that it is argued (and we believe justly argued) that Great Britain was in a condition, supposing a bargain of some kind made, to demand higher terms than have contented her, is proof that she has made no unworthy concession. The hypo thesis that we have introduced is, however, one that deserves attention, because the refusal to settle the question was a resource always open to the States. They might, if they disliked our conditions, have left the question in the state in which it has rested for 59 years ; and though we might have, as undoubtedly we have, the power to torce an arrangement and to dictate its terms, we would not have the right to do so after wait ing Si) years, and opening successive negotia tions, upon the assumption that the territory is of doubtful proprietorship. We could not have the right to originate a war upon the subject. To close this place of retreat (an abrupt post pon,lment of the settlement) against the United States was, after all, Lord Ashburton's greatest difficulty; but this place of retreat was to be closed only by liberal and even inviting terms, which the Government could not reject, but in compromising itself with the democracy. Again, it is a mistake to sup pose that there was any dispute upon the subject of the slave-trade. This, like the question of the boundary, was an open question between two independent parties, neither complaining of wrong by the other—for the casual, private, and well-deserved sufferings of Americans were pro perly held back ; and Great Britain had not even such shadows of wrong to complain of. Great Britain has no right to interfere with the Ameri can slave trade further than as the United States may give the right by treaty. Great Britain has no more original right to prevent the carriage of slaves from Africa to the United States, than she has to liberate the slaves already domiciled in those States. It is necessary to keep this steadily in view, because all the misapprensions that have arisen upon the subject rest upon the hypothesis, that we have a right to suppress the foreign slave-trade. We have no such right— and the attempt to arrogate it would only defeat our object; because it would identify the ac cursed traffic with the independence of nations- We have not any such right, any more than in any other matter we have a commission to keep the police of the world. We may do much by the influence of example, by expostulation with other independent nations. and by obtaining from them treaties which shall enable us to prevent the trade, as far as their sub jects and our own citizens are concerned; but this is all we have a right to expect, and in this way we have done a great deal. The United States profess a wish to prevent that traffic in human flesh which costs a thousand daily mur ders; to the degree in which they co-operate with us, to the extent to which they afford us facilities, they prove the sincerity of their pro fession; but if their co-operation is lukewarm— if, instead of affording facilities to the extinction of the abominable trade, they throw difficulties in the way of such as would extinguish it; the re sponsibility is not to us, who have no legal autho rity over them, but to their character beforemen and to their Almighty Creator. Engage ments to assist in putting down the slave trade are not engagements made to Great Britain, or to , any particular country, b ut to human nature. To refuse such engagements, to withhold the means of enfor c i ng t h em when professedly made, is no wrong to Great Britain in particular, but to . the whole family o f man ki n d , I t matters, therefore, nothing to the honour of this country whether the provisions conceded to the United States fbr the suppression of the slave-trade are made bona fide, and are adequate to their object ; but it 'natters everything to the character of the United States. Great Britain has done her part when she has earnestly re commended that proper course, which she has, however, no right to com mand; and even though she gain nothing by her recommendation, she in no respect compromises her honour by resting patient with that nothing. THE STADT DUTIES. The Morning Chronicle of yesterday contains a short and venomous notice of the treaty with Hanover, which is on the point of signature, for the future re gulation of the Stadt duties--an article which con tains almost as many lies as sentences. It is notorious that the Stadt duties are the hereditary property of the King of Hanover, and traceable as to their origin up to the very earliest era of German history ; and ; and thi s the regulation to which they are now about to be sub mitted will have reference, not so much to their amount as to the mode of collection. The Chronicle asserts that the tendency of the proposed treaty will be to augment the present amount of the impost, and to lay upon English commerce a burden equal to 100,0001. per annum ! The truth is, that the opera.. on its collection amount o u ii t w ch hi tion of the new system will be to diminish the levy never exceeded by more than a few hundreds an av e rage of 14,000 1 . per annum on British shippi ng t s diminution bytlleaboli N t N i • o il n l be f eatillecfeted on a gross fees s much for this fre-h illustration, adduced by o Chronicle, of the sacrifice of the Commercial y the interests of England by the Conservative Go Government.—Post. Notwithstanding the fine] weather experienced during the harvest, which raised the hopes of the farmer from deep despair, it has continued. equally favourable for the preparing the Bathe for next sea son's culture. Seldom has such watr been known. The harrowing operations are forwardly advanced, and everything at present bears the brightest pros pects.—Kentish Gazette. It is stated that her Majesty's Privy Council have given directions for the preparation of a form of thanks giving to Almighty God for the late manifestation of his goodness by the bountiful harvest. „:, FROM THE MORNING PAPERS OF YESTERDAY. : --•.”' POST.—It is . denied, in the British Packet the Buenos Ayres Government has any intend ' -of :$ improperly interfering in the affairs of Paragua /in the way which it has been accused of doing, altho ril great pains are taken by the people of Monte Video - ie.:: establish the fact. The following paragraph is kil tracted from a lengthened article on the subject : First, it is stated that General ltosas harbours 1 designs against Paraguay; and that, but for the or. stacles he throws in the way, an important commts... cial intercourse would be kept up with that count' '. The fact of his having declined to grant facilities a certain diplomatic gentlemen to proceed thither is adduced as a proof that he claims Paraguay as an i ,_ tegral portion of the Alkentine Confederation, a 4 that he is only waiting his opportunity formally to assert that claim. Of course, it is assumed that a radical change has taken place in Paraguay, and th at this El Dorado of many day-dreams is longing i c the arrival of 'foreign adventurers to relieve it of i a superabundant riches." The British Packet proceeds to explain that, f rt. m what it can l earn, li ttle or nothing of what was s. ticipatod on th e d em i se o f Dr. Francia has been ref 1• ised, th e system of the Dictator outliving its fou„ d , e ._ and th a t, a l t h oug h some slight modifications - 1 1 .

There is little doubt' 4.„it5.3 added, th a t th ere i s a disposition on the part °„.. d Consular G overnment to adopt a more enligh‘`"‘ - policy, but it i s quest i oned whether it would be CO. he sidered safe or expe di ent at once openly to attac k , ;,, " .- prejudices of a p eop l e , who, it matters not wha t said to the contrary, f on dl y cherish the memory of ", late Dictator. The ad m i ss i on of foreigners into ' : interior of the country, with liberty of egress, is 1 - appears, nearly as rare now as w as t h e case under,“"a dictatorial regime, nor is it pretended that any n4a terial change has taken place in the Doctor's singu' at mode of levying and collecting the duties, or in t ha patriarchal manner of transacting business general .y. It is declared to be an error to suppose that Pin guay offers an important outlet for foreign mar sz „. factures, and that, paradoxical as it may seem. ; 1 tb some, all who possess correct notions respecting j 4 4, population and the prevailing mode of living, w i I readily agree that one Liverpool cargo would sal& o to supply the wants of the people for more.than a yea, : From the geographical position of Paragua . y,, which formed one of the provinces of the ancie, .1 t vice-royalty of Buenos Ayres, it is considered tie ; whenever she relinquishes the state of insulation St ) has so long preserved, she must seek to cultivate th t most intimate relations with the Argentine republic since she can maintain an intercourse with tiveig t nations : only through its territory. The character 4 f these relations is not as yet defined, and it is held - : - ..,s be highly prudent on the part of the Buenos Ayr( a Government, so long as this state of uncertainty sha 'I continue, to observe such a line of policy as sha I awaken Paraguay to a sense of the importance ( if abstaining from contracting obligations which it wi II be impossible for her to fulfil without the concurren( a of the republic, 700 miles of whose territory must lxi traversed before any other direct intercourse can to effected with other nations. TIMES.—By the official returns published by 'ale Custoins, the exports of the precious metals to foreign and colonial parts for the week ending Thursday las; were as under : oz. Silver coin to Rotterdam Silver coin to Calcutta 39,750 Silver coin to Hamburgh 5OO Silver coin to Hongkong and Macao 213,647 Silver bars to Calcutta 25,208, The Buenos Ayres papers of the 16th of July, re-• ceived in the City, allude to the escape of the Revis tera squadron, seen off Martin Garcia, out of that reach of Admiral Brown ' whose flag-ship had got; aground, and prev en t e d his proceeding. The threes vessels, it was expected, would take an uninterrupted; course to the Parana, and there co-operate with then troops on its banks. The British Packet gives thes particulars of the interview of the new Brazilian envoy with Rosas, who had received that delegates with the honour necessarily due to his character and. station. A slight reaction in the quotation of the' Exchange would lead to the supposition that business was not so brisk as it had been ; the last quotation was 3d. per paper dollar. There were 61 vessels in portat the latest date. The same arrival has brought a financial document of some interest, being a " g eneral statement of thee operations of th e p u bli c stocks from their commence» ment on the Ist of January, 1822, to the end of June, 1842 ; together with a cash account • from the Ist or April to the 30th of June of the present year." Fronk this it appears that the whole debt created in that period was $2,000,000 in4percent., and $52,360,000 in 6 per cent. stock; that of this amount there has been redeemed, or otherwise put out of circulation,. about $750,000 of the 4 per cent., and $22,000,00(0 of 6 per cent. stock ; and that the whole remaining: debt of the Republic amounts, consequently, in $1,250,000 4 per cents., and $30,360,000 6 per cent:. It further appears, from the " cash" account, that; the amount received from the Customs, to pay in. terest and sinking fund, for April, May, and June. was about $940,000 ; that about $460,000 was em ployed in redeeming stock for that quarter, and that there was an available balance, to be employed July, for about $580,000 for interest, and $156,000, for sinking fund. This document presenting a satis factory- account, beyond all question, of the financiat situation of Buenos Ayres, leads naturally to the' inquiry, whether the debt to this country has been( wholly laid aside and forgotten. It was originally, we believe, only 1,000,0001. sterling, and negotiated by the house of Baring at the fair market price oft the time, and the amount of course duly remitted ; yet no interest has been paid sincz 1827, and tiles matter is as little a subject of discussion in the City as if no intention existed of preferring any claims for payment. As the States of Mexico, Colombiz„ and Chili, if not doing all that they ought to do, are making some effort, at least, fol- the satisfaction of British claims, founded on advances instrumental. mainly to the establishment of their independence, the supineness of the creditors of Buenos Ayres, supported, as they would be, by the powerful firm who negotiated the loan, is most extraordinary:. This document, it is to be hoped, will put them into some action. The project, currently announced by advertise ments in the public journals, for raising the treasure belonging to the French emigrants, supposed to have been sunk in the Telemaque, off Quillebceuf, in 1790,, naturally raises the very significant inquiry, made by more than one correspondent, how it happens that the French people, who have the most interest in the result, quietly suffer so large a profit as that held out to be reaped by the English ? As the answer to such an inquiry is by no means an easy matter, people , begin to assume, as at least possible, th a t th e real object may be th at of relieving the parties who origi— nate it from the expense incurred in various pam— phlets and advertisements, and other matters con,- nected with the affair, amounting, as has been stated, to about 3,6001., by a dip into the pocket of honest and confiding John Bull. An appeal to the public for raising a joint-stock capital is always to be looked at with suspicion whe n th e sum i s so small to toh b e within the reach of a n y private capitalist from 13. own resources. It seldom happens in such a ca se . that decidedly good things are offered to the publ i c, and we quite concur, therefore, in the suspicion ex pressed with regard to the treasure-ship."
