He would recommend } use to leave it to the humanity of the officers, cod by the admirable regulations to which he had referred, 1 the attempts which had been made, and were still 1--- attempts in which the Noble Lord opposite (Lord t4'411) and the late Secretary of War had taken an g e art—( Hsu, hear)—to raise the moral character of the r a. He thought that the distinction of flogging in peace and 4111 " lid on t h e line of march, and any other time, was most ti S er ous and o ff ens i ve .— (H ear , h ear .) With regard to the s ot '„uf theft, he begged to ask the Hon. Member, ought the soldier to be punished for making away with ~ accoutrements, and ammunition ? What greater crime I•7,tl4(intthhere be than making away with those articles? and 11 ulg but positive theft would be punidied by the Hon. erebe • its 61. • With regard to drunkenness, which the lion Alem tuacknowledged to be the parent of all crimes, it was his t61 1 ° ,1 , that o f a ll ot h er cr i mes, - it was the one that ' should be exempt. He should, therefore, give his vote, under S on ' , erre and h ones t conv i c ti on , th a t in the present constitu 4°F the British army, the punishment of flogging cannot hPelised with, w ith 'safety to its discipline.—( Hear. ) kti MACAULAY begged to state briefly the course he t at to pursue on the present occasion. He might with per ite;°,93lrteney vete for the motion of th Hon. Member, as °.leet of flogging was not brought under disc assion during we :!;e he had the honour of being in office"; but he thought 111 14 2'1e duty of persons in opposition to take upon themselves 4 14 .: of that unpopularity which may attach to them in con thWeie of their opinions as to what they deem necessary for Its tle T o ?fervice. The inquiry which it was his du(y to make kt te ,' turn, not that flogging was not carried to a frightful 1 4, 4 `% former times, bid. that they had done away with it as 1 4 , 4 1 t was safe. 7he instances or flogging ought to be very W ithi a l the limits allowed by the law. By the adoption measures as had been alluded to—furnishing the '114,f amusement to the men, and giving them opportunities i ectual enjoyments—very much might be done to render 44, 1 11 0 g unnecessary, but he conceived it would not be safe to It it altogether, or on the ground of a distinction between Si d a ad war.—(Hear, hear.) Under these circumstances he sti,;lote against the motion ; and if it had been brought last year, he should have taken the same course. the debate another question had been raised respecting Noth aa istency of the Hon. Gentleman, and the line of con- S t : Pursued with regard to the subject upon the former a, and he invited them to look to the Mirror of Par- S iL t as to what he said in 1840. He (Mr. Macaulay) i4'07.11t0 read a part of what he said. His words, before t gu for a Select Committee, were—" I call on the o'rolish this barbarous and brutal torture, and to show Nue atal nations that the British soldier can discharge his 419 E n equal fidelity under the influence of a noble feeling." of hear.) He (Mr. Macaulay) thought that to call 7"., House to abolish " barbarous and brutal torture" was l '447sit to any vote. That was on the 20th of May, 1838, kt t conceived that it had been satisfactorily made out that 411 the year 1836 and 1838 a change had taken place in I:Pirliens of the Hon. Member. Isgd ARTHUR LENNOX, in reply to the observation of VI Gentleman opposite, that no man had ever been re. ke t e4 by the infliction of corporal punishment, would re 'that there were at present in hor Majesty's service four Who had, while privates, received corporal punishment. it te e ar.) It had also been attempted to he shown, that because tit t : e a% no corporal punishment inflicted in some of the ro s „ s all armies, we could, therefore, do away with it. Now, ko h 7gard to t h e French army, ho would observe, that in the I tt 7 of one year 81 men had been sentenced to death, and sentence had carried into execution in is t il s if of the cases. Now, if that had _been the ease in the V I I id service, what would the Hon. Member for Wycombe Ittliss?—Hear, hear.

If that were the case, nothing could Isteater disgrace to the army, than to allow the practice of Nk t ig 'corporal punishment to exist. A better class of men 41,1ft:digt, did the not fear that they should subject them to. the liability y of undergoing a punishment which they Vrted a degradation.

Then with respect to solitary k. it il. toent, there was a class of men in the army who cared Vol were confined ten days out of every month or fort ziiii,,,.. Besides, the effect of the infliction of that Anent would be, that all the well-conducted men Sk have to do the duty of those whose ill- N e ,t ... got them confined.

But as no officer now could abuse the power, Itt sti o ontrary, as every Gentleman who had spoken had ad oit that every commanding officer did his best to dispense 7tti, % °„tlauch as possible, he could not but express his regret lit t t clon.

The h ,/,,.,linber concluded by stating that in 1836 the opinion of tti s Ztes,. o l the land was against the abolition of corporal '' l t. - ',„ent. t t IICHOLL said, as he had never expressed his opinion kp . .t i'ouse on the subject under consideration, he trusted he N, e allowed to make one or two remarks.

The soldiers forgot the crime and the criminal if they did not see the punishment inflicted. Captain POLHILL, as an old officer, felt it was his duty to state briefly his reasons for opposing the motion of the Hon. Member for Wycombe. He thought it was desirable that the power of inflicting corporal punishment should be left in the hands of commanding officers, although he admitted that the less it was found necessary to use it the better. Captain BERNAL, in reply, stated, that however humble • an individual he might lbe considered, he was somewhat surprised that after the motion had been brought forward, the Right Hon. Gentleman the Secretary at War had not addressed the House upon the subject. He did think that some respect was due to public opinion out of doors. --(Cries of " Order," and " Chair.") The SPEAKER said• that the Hon. Member was not en titled to reply. Captain BERNAL said he wished to explain what had been said by the Hon. Member Or Liverpool. —( Loud cries of "Order, order," " Chair, chair.") The SPEAKER saitl,that if the Hon. Member had been mis understood he might explain, but he could not introduce any new matter into the debate.

This Bill was read a third time, and passed. The CHA NCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER moved that the House at its rising adjourn to Monday next. CUSTOMS' DUTIES (WEST INDIAN AND NORTH AMERICAN COLONIES). On the motion of Air. GLADSTONE, the House resolved itself into Committee to consider of preliminary resolutions on Customs' duties ( West Indian and North American colonies). Mr. LABOUCHERE said that he apprehended that this wes the time when it was his duty to bring before the Commit tee the point of which he had given notice. lie deeply regret ted that in a Bill of which he approved, and which he would, therefore, support, that he should find a proposal which was highly objectionable, and altogether at variance, as it appeared to him, with the general purport of the Bill, and which he should, therefore, think it his duty to resist by every means in his power. lie alluded to the proposal on the part of the Go vernment to alter the existing law which allowed the free im portation from the United States of America into Canada of a great variety of articles, and to impose a duty upon some of the most important of those articles. It was necessary that he should state to the House what the present system was. Flour, wheat, cured meat, and such articles, ;sere at present allowed to cross the border from the United States to Canada without any duty whatever. That principle had been adopted by the House on full consideration, in the year 1831, and the consequence we'', that a Bill had been brought into the House by his late la mented friend, Lord Sydenham, then Mr. Poulett Thomson, who was the Vice-President of the Board of Trade. Previous to that time there was a duty upon wheat flour brought from the United States into Canada of ss. per quarter. Air. Thomsen, in proposing to do away with those duties, had stated to the House that, as far as he could perceive, there were no British interests which could be promoted by interfering with the free passage of those articles, namely, flour and salted provisions, from the United States into Canada. That measure of Lord Sydenham, had not been opposed in the House, and he ( Mr. Labouchere) would remind the Committee of the grounds en which Lord Sydenham had proposed that measure. He held it ass general principle that in all cases, unless where the great interests of the empire were concerned, they ought to abstain from all interference of this kind with the colonies. 1 hat was indeed the principle on which the Hon. Gentleman opposite had framed the rest of the Bill, and the present case was the only instance in which ho had departed from that principle. In every other instance the Bill had been constructed upon a principle of relaxation, in that part of the Bill alone had they adopted the principle of increased restric tion. Lord Sydenham had said that by taking off these duties we should make the St. Lawrence the great outlet of the Ame rican States, and destroy the whole range of custom-houses along the St. Lawrence. Now it was of the utmost importance to make the new American States dependent upon us for their great outlet, and by removing those duties the St. Lawrence would become the great outlet of the States of Ohio, Indiana, Michi gan, counties rapidly improving in prosperity, fertility, and po pulation. The St. Lawrence was the natural outlet of those States. The employment it gave to the shipping of this country coming down the St. Lawrence was better than any advantage that could be derived from a paltry duty on American wheat and flour crossing the border. It was satisfactory to him (Sir. L.) to bear the Right Hon. Gentleman, the Vice-President of the Board of Trade, say a few nights since, that ho did not pro pose this duty in connexion with the present Corn-law, or for the benefit of the English landowner, while he also said it was not for the benefit of the Canadian farmer or miller, who, he admitted with him (Mr. L.), might appeal to the Canadian Legislature for redress, if they wished to retaliate upon the Americans for the duty they imposed upon Canadian wheat or flour crossing the frontier of the United States. All he meant to say was, that if any Canadian interest was in volved in the measure, that was no question for the House. But if it was not any British interest or Canadian interest, he would ask what interest was involved in the subject ? He had not, she confessed, received a satisfactory answer upon that point. The Right Hon. Gentleman had stated that it was an inter-colonial interest that was involved in the case ; but he was certainly at a loss to conceive how that answer applied. He was opposed to the proposed duty upon meat; he was op posed to the duty upon wheat ; and he could not approve of many parts of the measure of the Government. The dispute between him and the Right Hon. Gentleman opposite, how ever, was practically confined to the questions of meat and wheat. American flour was now imported into this country through Canada, but he believed the practice was carried on to a very limited extent ; and he thought that it would be very unreasonable to entertain any exaggerated fears upon that sub ject. He believed that the importation of flour from the United States to Canada was attended with great advantage to both countries. The greater the facilities we could give for the importation of American corn, as compared with the corn grown on the shores of the Baltic, the more would we remedy one of the great evils of our present system of Corn-laws. He must say, that unless they should hear in the course of these debates some arguments more strong and conclusive than they had yet heard, and than he expected to hear, he hoped that the Right Hon. Gentleman would see the propriety of withdrawing this proposition ; or if he would not consent to that, he hoped that the Committee would do its duty and refuse to sanction it. This was a proposition which would destroy British trade, and to which no advantage had been assigned which would bear a moment's discussion or investigation.— ( Hear.) He begged to move that after the words " wheat flour," be inserted " except in Canada." Mr. GLADSTONE said that he concurred in all the gene ral principles which he had heard from the Right Hon. Gentle man. (The Right Hon. Gentleman spoke in so low a tone of voice, as to render it almost impossible for us to catch a sen tence.) He thought the time had not yet arrived for the estab lishment of the Right Hon. Gentleman's propositions with regard to Canada. If certain improvements could be effected, and they were to wish to establish a systefn of free trade, he (Mr. Gladstone) should say that that was a proposition which they were perfectly free to grant ; but he did not think that Canada or any colony ought to claim the benefits of our colonial system, and at the same time be relieved from prohibition and restriction. He (Mr. Gladstone) said that there was no such object as protection of Canadian interests and protection of ilritish interests in this proposition. Of what possible avail could it be to lay a duty of 2s. on American flour to prevent it from being shipped into this country, when all they would have to do would be to carry it across the lake, by which means it wou.d bo rendered perfectly nugatory and perfectly useless? But the Right Hon. Gentleman put the question, For whose ad vantage was the charge made? and followed the question, by saying that it was not fur the benefit of the consumers in Ca nada. It was not ; but to benefit the consumers in those colo nies which were not exporters of grain, but importers.— t, Hear, hear.) Canada, with respect to corn, was an export ing, and not an importing colony ; and the only way this tax could operate to their disadvantage, was only by preventing them from making great gains at the expense of those colo nies which, under the present system, received from Canada American grain as Canadian. This was the case with New foundland. Suppase that Newfoundland wants 50,000 barrels of flour, and there is a duty of 2s on foreign flour, and that colonial flour be admitted free; now, if the Canadians be al lowed to import American flour free, they would import 50,000 barrels from America for their own use, and would send the same - quantity to Newfaundlands• and the- Canadian merchant would put in his packet the 2s. which, according to the plan before the House, would be paid as duty on. the American flour in Newfoundland, in relief of the taxation'of that colony. Mr. ROEBUCK said that the object of his question was to ascertain what'particular class of persons in Canada it was in tended to benefit. The Right Hon. Gentleman had been used as an instrutnent, not knowing what he was about. He (Mr. Roebuck) believed what the Hon. Gentleman had stated, that no advantage was attempted to be taken for any persons. The Right Hon. Gentleman had so stated, and he (Mr. Roebuck) was therefore bound to believe him. In this country they sought to promote the benefit of the landlord by the monopoly in the growth of corn. He (Mr. Roebuck) could understand that. Self-interest was always intelligible. Then to smoothen the difficulties which lay in the path of the Right Hon. Baro net—difficulties which he (Mr. R.) understood, which he could appreciate, and which he (.11r. R.) was glad to say the Right Hon. Baronet had not shrunk from facing—nevertheless, now to smooth those difficulties, and to hold out some ground of hope to the agricultural classes of the country, they said they were going to render impossible the importation of Ametican flour. He ( Mr. Roebuck) did not mean to put a question on this subject without touching upon a point which the House ought to understand—namely, whether they were new in a condition to impose any duty such as that hu alluded to fir the benefit of the landlord ? But he would come to that point presently. He would now endeavour to explicate the ratiocination of the Right Hon. Gentleman. The Right Hon. Gentleman said that he did not intend to benefit any interest in the Canadas, nor any interest of the producers anywhere else, and that his object was to benefit the consumer. Was it, he (Mr. Roebuck) wanted to know, to benefit the consumers of Canada? He certainly would've benefited in his (Sir. Roebuck's) opinion by cheap corn. But they did not cheapen the price of corn by imposing an additional duty of 2s. per quarter; therefore it was not the consumer in Canada that would be benefited. Right Hon. Gentleman said certainly not; that was the consumer in Newfoundland that would be } ;.,eneated, hat was he to have his corn chearms.e by the '.naposition of in ad ditional duty of 2s per quae,er ? lie (Mv. la s sebe t ely always found that the half-phy .s, sr ema the haustheoNian us e d t er m s that were not intelligils e and the man who th oroug hl y under stood the subject of Which he tressed used plain wo r d s , an d such as were easily 'understood, He certai n ly presume d that the Right Hon. t, entlemisn understood the pre sen t su bj ect, b ut he could not 'nut regret that he had used such wor d s as " dif ferential He (Sir. Roebuck) wanted t o k now h ew the imr„osition of 2s. additional duty upon the b arre l o f corn would' lessen the price of it to army person, or how it ould enable them to import corn into Newfoundland cheaper than the American merchant? The American corn, he knew by experience, to be hotter than the Canadian corn, and that therefore it would find its way into Newfoundland whether they imposed a duty or not. The feet was, the Right Hon. Gentleman was in a maze on the. matter. It was clear as possible that he wanted to make out a ease. He was like a man who advocated a bad cause. He had talked round this subject, and about it and about, but he never ex plained it ; and now the real question was simply—as the Go vernment itself declared that it had no object in view as re spected Canada—was the House prepared in explanation of the Right lion. Gentleman to put a duty upon foreign corn for the benefit of the consumer of Newfoundland—were they to interfere with the great principles of our colonial power for the purposes laid down - by the Right Iron. Gentleman ? Hu believed that was notto win with tlier ul t ( h ll e lr d . iv i a l s .) ri h o a u d s America, ie d r: w w ". i t the n e e legislation et our colonies, except aa regarded the matter of trade.—(Hear, from the Ministerial benches.) He took the High's Hon. Gentleman at his word. It was to matters of trade he referred. He (Mr. Roebuck) had told them that he hail a constitutional objection to the imposition of a tax of this description for the benefit of anybody in this country not connected with our trade. Did they i mpose i t for the benefit of the landlord? Then, if they did, they broke through the Act of George 111. referring to the matter. The Right Hon. Gentleman said it was not intended for the benefit of the land lord, nor for the merchant of Canada ; neither was it for the benefit of the Canadian producer or consumer, but it seemed that it was intended for the benefit of the consumer in New foundland. That was all. It was reduced to that single item. GLADSTONE—The West Indies. Mr. ROEBUCK—The West Indies! How could the West Indies be benefited by their putting 2s. a barrel on American / flour?—( Hear, hear.) Now, it was upon this point that they were about to legislate for Canada. They had broken up its Administration. They had crammed the Eng lishman end the Frenchman into the same hull, and now they were about to violate the Act which Great Britain had pas.ed, after she had been taught wisdom, by which she declared that we would not interfere with such matters. It was a serious step which they were asked to take. What was it which commenced the riot in Boston? An impost upon tea. And why should ill-blood again be excited, when the Canadians saw this impost inflicted upon them for the benefit, of the landlords? They would compare Upper Canada to New York and to Michigan, to that vast wilderness, whose city after city, metropolis after metropolis, railroad after railroad, was continually springing up. He would ask the House if they were prepared to add this to the existing causes of disaffection ? Importation from America to Canada was easy, almost beyond conception ; it did not depend upon any impediment from the River St. Lawrence—corn floated down• from Kingston in twelve hours—a thousand years hence the importation would not be more easy. Why should they interfere? There was a mischievous spirit besetting them all ; they did not know how to govern the country, but they must !haw their authority by this petty interference. Let the people govern themselves. There xas not a merchant in London who d.d not know what was the effect of imposing 2s. a barrel on American flour. lie would not leave this question without making a slight mention of the law of the case. The proposition which he laid down was, first, that goed policy Would teach them not to interfere with the internal regulations of their colonies without some special ground made of benefit to the whole community ; and, se condly, that the mode in which that benefit was to be derived was specially pointed out by the Declaratory Act of 1778. That Act bound them not to interfere with the trade of the colony for the purpose of the revenue of the colony. The only case in which they were at liberty to interfere was, where it was necessary, for the benefit of the great leading interests of this mighty empire. Now, he asked what those interests were which needed it ? First, the agricultural interest did not need it; the mercantile interest did not need it ; the people who were about to he taxed did not need it ; but, said the Right Hon. Gentleman. there are certain people somewhere, he ( Mr. Roebuck) did not exactly know where, who might derive a benefit by the imposition of this duty. The Right Hon. Gentleman distinctly stated, and was particular in making the statement, that it would not benefit the growers of corn. Now he (Mr. Roebuck) would ask, would it benefit the consumers? —( Hear, hear. ) The growers of corn might be benefited by keeping up high prices, but the consumers of corn can only be benefited by low prices; and the onus rested on the Right Honourable Gentleman of showing how the consumer could be benefited, and how American flour could be made cheaper in the market by the imposition of a duty of two shillings. The imposition of this duty, moreover, was con trary to the provisions of an Act of Parliament. In the year J77: 4 , just before England was compelled to acknow ledge the independence of the American States, an attempt was made to conciliate the colonies by passing a Declaratory Act. That Act declared that the King and Parliament of Great Britain should not impose any duty on tea for the pur pose of raising any revenue in any colony ; that they should not impose any duty except for the regulation of commerce; and that the produce of such duty should be applied exclusively to colonial uses. Now, with the Act before them, the onus lay upon them of showing that the imposition of this duty was ne cessary for the benefit of the general commerce of the United Kingdom. It was not sufficient to show that some one parti cular individual might by chance derive a benefit of 2id. from this duty ; but they were bound to show .that the imposition of this duty was necessary for the benefit of the whole commer cial interests of the kingdom. lie asked the Right Hon Gen tleman to show him that, and he thought the Right Hon. Gentleman would have great difficulty in showing how any in terest could be benefited by raising the price of corn and flour by the imposition of this duty. Lord STANLEY thought that the Hon. and Learned Gen tleman's fears that the agricultural interest would he benefited by the adoption of the proposed measures might have been considerably allayed if he (Mr. Roebuck) had taken the trouble to observe the thin attendance of agricultural Members at the discussion.—(Hear.) Although the Hon. and Learned Gentleman had attacked his Right Hon. Friend as being igno rant both of geography and of political economy, he (Lord Stanley) did not think his Right Hon. Friend stood in need of any defence. The Hon. and Learned Gentleman had through out misrepresented his Right Hon. Friend. The Hon. and Learned Gentleman had accused his Right Hon. Friend of saying that the St. Lawrence was not the great outlet for the produce of the Canadas and of a portion of the United States. His Right Hon. Friend said nothing of the sort, and he (Lord S. ) could not believe that there was a Member of the House, nay scarcely a person in England, who was so grossly ignorant. The real state of the case was this. The Hon. Member for Taunton had said, that all the corn and flour exported from America, by way of the St. Lawrence, was paid for directly in British manufacture; and, therefore, it was of the utmost im portance to encourage this trade for the benefit of those en gaged in British manufactures. In reply to that, his Right Hon. Friend, had said that he (Mr. Gladstone)was afraid that the Hon. Member for Taunton was taking too sanguine a view of the subject, because, although the navigation down the St. Lawence was easy, yet the navigation up the St. Lawrence was attended with so many difficulties, that he doubted whether the increased state of British manufacture would take place to the extent contemplated by the Hon. Member tor Taunton. That was the argument of which his Right Hon. Friehd had made use, and which the Hon. Gentleman misrepresented. He (Mr. Roebuck) could not understand how the imposition of 2s. a barrel upon tour could make corn either cheaper or dearer. His Honourable Friend never •contended that corn in Newfoundland would be received cheaper, by his pro position, than it as at present, but he contended that whereas Canada possessed an opportunity in the first instance of importing into the provinces of the British empire cheaper than it could be obtained elsewhere, the result would be, not to relieve the consumer of Newfoundland from the payment of additional price, but that the additional price would go into the pocket of the merchant in Canada. Let them take the case of 2,000 barrels of flour to be exported from the United States and from Canada, supposing a duty of two shillings to be paid on all flour from the United States, and that the Canadian flour paid no duty. The Canadian flour coming into competition with the United States flour, the corn from the United States would re gulate the price of the Canadian flour ; and the result would be that 2,000 barrels coming into Newfoundland from the United States paying 2s. duty, and another 2,000 from Canada, and paying no duty, the price would not be diminished to the con sumer in Newfoundland, and the revenue would lose the amount which would result from the tax which they would have received from the United States' flour. He had risen merely for the purpose of 'endeavouring to show in what re spects the Hon. and Learned Gentleman had misunderstood his lion. Friend's argument. lie was not aware, whether he had made the case clear to him ; but the proposition which his Hon. Friend had put forward was purely one of equity. There were no interests in Canada, no interests in this country, neither had agricultural interests, anything to do with this question ; it was a mere question of inter colonial policy, a question, in his mind, of very small importance, and which, he was sure, would not raise in Canada those hostile feelings which some Gentlemen had supposed. Strangers were then ordered to withdraw, and the House divided, when the numbers were— For the clause For the amendment ...... 54 Majority for Ministers ... —9 On re-entering the gallery we found Lord J. RUSSELL on his legs, who was discussing the neat clause in the Bill. He said that without any practical evil arising from the present law, which had lasted for eleven years, the Right Hon. Gen tleman came with his abstract principle and said, that because the revenue of Newfoundland might be injured, he would come and interrupt that which was good and useful to commerce, and put a stop to their advantage. He (Lord John Russell) never knew anything so wanton, so unnecessary in his life.—( Hear.) If it were for the benefit of some great English interest, if it were for the benefit of the landed interest, or of any material interest, he might say that the principle was injurious and vicious, but he should say that seine interest was concerned, and that. some great matter might be obtained by the legisla tion ; but when no benefit could arise to any interest or the revenue, he must say he thought it most unnecessary.— ( Cheers.) No benefit could accrue to the consumer, for he understood the Noble Lord to say that the Canadian , merchant and importer, being able to send those goods to Newfoundland and other Icolonies, would have an advantage over the United States merchant, and that he, not,paying any duty would go into theirtarket at Newfoundland, and sell his proportion , at the same price as the United states merchant sold his, and would thereby derive an advantage. By that, however, he made out that the consumer received no benefit. They only said that the Canadian merchant might receive sonic advantage from this legislation. Was this a reason to interfere with that which had been established for eleven years, which was working for good, and might produce very great advantages? Because. he would say that there could be no greater advantage than to have a free communication be tween Canada and the United States, because it would bring both to the colonies and to this country great importations front the Western States of North America. In the case of the East India rum he could understand not a principle; but in this case it was a pure evil—they were interfering with the pros perity of Canada, and they had no reason for it, but that such a principle had been in force before. He hoped those who had decided in favour of this principle in the case of wheat flour, would negative the proposition now before the House, and that the House would mark its sense of disapprobation at this petty, meddling legislation. Mr. GLADS7'UNE said, after the tempered speech of the Hon. and Learned Gentleman opposite, he certainly was sorry to hear so sharp and so unjustifiably worded a speech from the Noble Lord as that which had just fallen from him.. The Noble Lord had alluded to this measure as if it were intended to obstruct the commerce between the United States and t' country and Canada, and had stated that reducing the ' the articles contained in the resolutions would an Now he (Mr. G.) must say, that inst- _ sieve that &vet. been selected calculated more to • --ate& could oat bays (Mr. G.) ventured to sae support the resolutions.

Lord vrOHN RUSSELL—That was not my argument. My ittgument was that the increase in the duty would not tend to promote commerce. Ur. LABOU Cil ERE: must admit that when he addressed the 'louse last night, he thought it was impossible for the Right Hon. Gentleman to bring forward the slightest argu ment that would bear upon this subject, but he (Mr. L.) must admit that he had discovered something more plausible than he anticipated.— ( Hear, hear, and a laugh.) But at the same time he must say, that never was a question pro posed to that House by any Government supported by such slender arguments as those used on that occasion. The Right Hon. Gentleman, the President of the Board of Trade, had said that they (the Opposition) had reduced the duty on salt meat so mach, that there would be no difficulty in the importation of American meat, but they must remember that the St. Law rence was the outlet of Indiana, Ohio, and Michigan, and all the North-western portion of America. Now cured meat from that part of she country would naturally come down fro-, the St. Lawrence if they did not interrupt it by impos l - n , meat of the Noble Lord, the Secre.arya duty. He confessed he had heard with comic:y/4W- • that occasion, because he was h e regret the argu. which decided upon the moasu ,ember of that 9enrlllp.tili for the Colonies, es I :distought forward Thomson in the House or comm,ffiii Which established the , rfur f i ep L art ,, iner to alter. He really did net 'think the Noble fw-asord74:l s . t c a e te ' d nl t l e the House any a ll y rekson 1 "'om that policy which he had reetnninended, and existed for eieven years without i ik n i j e ury b te anybody. ;eioesotualtdednotht that the choouwresveeprr,owpiotshedthbeyHhoern.ma Majesty's Govern. merit was a violation of the Declaratory Act. He felt bound to say he could not agree with the Hon. 1 i lembe • r in that objec tion to the measure. Cllr. ROEBUCK had taken the t rou bl e to ascertain the consequences of thi s measure to Canada and Newfoundland. Wheat imported from Canada int* Newfoundland would be got at 205., and if they put a duty upon flour imported from America into Canada of 25., that would make it 225., therefore Newfoundland would have to pay a tax of 25., which would be reaped in Canada. Lord 110 WICK certainly concurred with the Hon. Gen tleman that the measure would be an advantage, but nut a politic one. 'the arguments used by the Right Hon. Gentle man opposite was precisely the same as that used by them on that side of the House with respect to East India tobacco. The revenue of both countries would increase without benefit ing the consumer. lie entirely concurred with the lion. THE SUN, LONDON, SATURDAY EVENING. APRIL 16, 1842. Gentleman near him, that tbis measure was not a violation of the Declaratory Act. He admitted the right and the power of Parliament to make such regulations as those proposed, but he thought they ought not to have recourse to change without there was a probability of benefiting a whole colony. He thought that our Government should not set up a principle one day and throw it down the next. He could wish them to act on some system of principle. Sir ROBERT PEEL said the Noble Lord had spoken with great fairness. He stated very fairly that the objec tion that the Hoxourable and Learned Member for Bath— that this measure was an interference with the Declaratory Act—did not apply. The Noble Lord said, let them act on a system. Now, if they were to act upon a system, they would find, on investigation, there was a duty of mss. on flour into Nova Scotia and into Prince Edward Island. That duty was imposed not merely by a Colonial Act, but by an Imperial Act. Now, acting on the recommendation of the Noble Lord, there would be no difficulty in placing Canada on the same foot ing as the other North American colonies. He would remind them, as they were to act upon principle, that last year the Noble Lord had recommended the re duction on, the duties of butter and cheese imparted into Canada from the United States. How could they retain the duty on butter and cheese, and not impose it on flour. He (Sir Robert Peel) must say, he was a little surprised at the senti ments of the Right Hon. Gentleman, when he said, " Don't touch this subject, as it has been in existence for eleven years." When I.e (Sir Robert Peel) contended that they should look with great care at a precedent of 150 years standing, he was met with loud cheers, combined with a sort of derision, which implied that nothing could be more foolish than the arguments used ; therefore, as far as the eleven years were concerned, he thought even that argument failed; whether right or wrong, was another question. He thought the whole argument on the other side preponderated in tavour of a change. He hoped they had shown that what had been said by the Chan cellor of the Exchequer was unfounded, and that they did not meet in a violent passion to discuss the subject. Several HON. GENTLEMEN here exclaimed, the Chancellor of the Exchequer. Sir R. PEEL meant the late Chancellor of the Exchequer. The Noble Lord (Lord J. Russel!) had forgotten the advice of the Right Hon. Gentleman ; but he (Sir It. Peel) hoped that throughout the remainder of the session, nothing but good temper would prevail in the discussion of matters which would come before them.—( Hear.) Mr. LABOUCHERE was not aware that there had been any ill tempe: evinced on that side the House, for, certainly, it was not a very exciting topic, and, if there had been any ill temper displayed that evening, he should certainly despair of hearing any discussion conducted calmly in that House. After a few words from Mr. C. BULLER andAlr. S. O'Batex, on the proposal for fixing the duty on unrefined sugar at 55., Mr. GLADSTONE wished to correct a mistake that hail gone abroad upon this point. There was no intention to allow the introduction of unrefined sugar into all West India Colonies at a rate of ss. The old prohibitions will remain just as they were. _ _ _ . . On the proposal for making the duty on tea imported from China into the United Kingdom, or British possessions, Mr. LAI3OUCHERE said that he preferred the plan he had proposed last year, on the suggestion of lord Sydenham. After a few words from Mr. GLADSTONE in explanation, Mr. COBDEN mentioned, as an instance of thit present state of our law on the subject of sugar, that 14,097 cwt. of slave-grown sugar had been sent out of this country to the West Indies in the space of six months after it bad been reEned in bond here. Mr. M. MILNER GIBSON complained of a 10 per cent, duty upon slave-grown sugar, refined in this country, and ex ported to the Colonies. He thought that such sugar should be considered as if it were an article of British produce. Mr. GLADSTONE stated that the pro v i s i on h e i n t ro • duced would leave the questionmuch in the same state in which it stood at present. Slave-grown sugar could not be looked on as an article of British produce, inasmuch as no such sugar was grown in our possessions. The resolutions were then agreed to, and the House re sumed. The Report was ordered to be brought up en Monday. Mr. GLADSTONE, in reference to sugar coming into the Colonies, said he copied the words of the existing Possessions Act, so that the prohibition would remain precisely as it was at present against importing foreign sugar into the Colonies. He would allow the Colonies to import tea from the United States or any other place on payment of a duty of 7 per cent. ad v dorm On the sugar item being proposed. Air. COBDEN objected to the clause that would allow the importation of slave-grown sugar refined into Canada, while the poor people of this country could not use iL This was in consistent. Air. GLADSTONE said our possessions had not sugar to send these colonies, and he merely proposed to leave them the privilege they had had for years. The Turnpike Roads' Bill, and the Railways' Bill (second reading) were postponed to Monday. The other Orders of the Day were then disposed of, and the llouse adjourned at Half-past Ten.
