The in tercouree.already,existing between Hilifax and Quebec is known to be coneidertible e but the originators of the Steele- Navigation Company have reason to anticipate a prodigious in crease, when the facilities which they contemplatf. are alibrded In fact, it appears to them, that Halifak, froth its situation, is OVA arz pat ticularly suited - to become the depot of the productions Of 6EI iNze LaNNLonoi e COMPANY.SE T A Canada and the West Indies, from whence they may be 'con signed either to the adjoining Colonies, or to a foreign market. It is also contemplated, that the boats shall'i , touch at the in lervening ports of kliramichi and Richibecto t and it is ex pected that, 'by availing themselves of these conveyances, a great advantage will accrue to thole engaged:in the fisheries, by-insuring them a speedy:transport to and from the fishing stations, which may readily be accomplished Lv the boats touch ing at Percee, where persons from .the Bays of Chaleur, Gas pee; &c. would concentrate; and from this source, a revenue of considerable extent may be calculated upon. '• The plan also embraces the transmission of early intelligence between Europe and Canada. It is a notorious fact, that at p_resent almost all the letters to and from these Colonies are flansraitted by American vessels by the way of New York, and that few are sent by the British packets, a circumstance which most occeeion'a considerable loss to the Post-effice revenue; whereas, were these Steam-boats once established, the ro . utp.of Halifax, during six months of the year,- would' be inhnitely preferable, as letters could he forwarded by theta to Quebec. In regaid to the safety of the voyage it is hat l) aeecssarj to say any thing, by proceeding througli•the Gtit of Canso the boat would be land-locked nearly all the way ; . -the tine o,7cu pied in performing it, would not, except in extraordinary ce es, exceed five days. Fuel can be had at a very rasbriable razz at Quebec, Halifax,' and the intermediate portS. To carry into effect an objeCtso desirable; it is propsA that a Capital of 50,000/., in 1,000 shares of 501. each, be raised, of which 600 shares shall be disposed o'.` in Great Bri tain and Ireland, giving , a preference , ' in the first instance,' to . persons - eonnpeted with the North AmericatrOlorties, and the remaining 500 shall be reserved for parties ip C a n a d a , N ova Scotia; New Brunswick, &c,,•tintil the kith of Augtist next.

The Right Hen. the LORD MAYOR, in the Chait.: , . Moved by Thomas Wils on, Esq. -M.P. seconded by G. G. de , . H. Larpent, Esq. ; Resolved, with one dissentient voice,. That a high price of food, relatively to other countries, is an evil of great magnitude,. entailing privations on the bulk of the community, reducing the general rate of profit, retarding the aceumulation'of wealth, and tending to driveeapital abroad; and that the loss arising to the Public froinStich high price is not compensated by correspond; ingadvantages-accruing to any class of Society. _ Moved by Thomas Tooke, Esq.,-seconded by W. Ward, 'Esq, ; Resolved. unanimously, That great ;fluctuations in the price of the necessaries of life are in. all cases highly injurious ; the extreme elevation inflicting severe suffering on the Public as consumers, while the extreme-of depression is ruinous. -to ..thi producers ; and that in the case of -this country, such sudden transitions are followed by a great disturbance of the currency, derangement of mercantile operations, unsettling the Nages=of labour, and producing violent alterations in the value of every' species oT property ; that, although fluctuations in. the price .of corn to some extent are inevitable, from the vici.s-sinales of the seasons, the range of variation from that cause adniitopf being greatly narrowed by having the sources of supply spread over a wide space, embracing a great .variety of soil and climate; that the restrictions imp- se4 by the present Corn Laws, by : confining our-supply to-the produce of this country, except in periods a great emergency, have tended to aggravate the effect of the fluc tuations arising- from the .itariatiori. of the seasons and other causes. Moved by Isaac Softy, Esq., seconded by John Hodgson,-Esq.Resolved unanimously, • That in addition to the fluctuation .necessarily resultingfrom the restrictions established by law, it is notorious that a great uncertainty has pervaded the operations of the corn markets, and fhe intention of the Legislature has been defeated by;the fraudulent pradtices which have been re sorted to, .witli,the- view of influenciAg the average prices by whieb,..thz . .Quening or .Batting - of the ports is determined. Crawfiiiit Esq - .7lrialided by S. C. Holland, Esq. Resolved unanimously, That it appears therefore to this Meeting, that an early revision of the Corn Laws, and repeal of so much of the regulations as govern by periodical average prices the admission of foreign corn to entry for home con sumption, is highly expedient. • Moved by Alderman Thompson, M.P., seconded by John W. Buckle, Esq. ; Resolved, with.one dissentient voice, That deeply impressed with the important advantages which will flow out of the ini proved principles of our commercial legislation, and persuaded that the agricultural interests cannot fail to reap their fun share of the prosperity enjoyed by other classes of the community, this meeting is - desirous that the present restrictions should be com muted for a.fixed duty, whereby the ports of the United Kinsg doni would be constantly open for the admission of foreign grain for home consumption from all parts of the world. That in the opinion of this Meethig the amount of the duty upon admission should be limited to a fair equivalent for such taxes and burdens .as are borne by the cultivators of the soil, either exclusively or in n greater proportion than other branches of industry. But while it is the opinion of the present Meeting that this amount of duty is the utmost that can be admitted on correct principles, as the ultimate and permanent basis which all legislation on the corn trade should have in view, it proposes to leave to the wis_. dom of Parliament to determine upon such higher amount of ,fixed duty as may be deemed expedient by way of precaution against too great a suddenness of change, always keeping in mind, that the higher the duty the greater will be the liability to fluctuation in prices. . . Moved by . Charles. Barclay, Esq., seconded by Robert . . Grant, Esq. ; - • .

Such a specks -of liberty 'as the law might be enjoyed under an arbitrary - government,;, but thii was not that lib4ty known only to truly.free Goverriti4e.ets, and which constituted the essence ot - them. This new4litkik sOrt of, liberty, was rather the shadow of liberty than li*kty itself, which, in certain late petitions, had 4equ•kalleti;,;:not artfully, as it appeared to him, political power." the iiitiPtat,- olligy of such petitions lad figared, . most falsely, that the object of the Catholics was [ supremacy--a transfer of power which nobody had asked ;: for they only had _risked what every One riotworshiping the Virgin, or invoking Saints, Was alteruly in possession of. There were cases, he would allow, in .whkii it might be advisable and necessary to curt a il both civil And religioui liberty : but it was idle mockery to tell those excluded front both,' that their • Lordships ivere • friendly to them, therefore, the Clergy were disposedto encroach on. the sactvd right of petitioning, by what some conceived to be an abuse of [ that right, they lutist expect their petitions' to be noticed and [ canvassed by Nob/e. lards. . [.. The petition (from the WY. John Pike Jones, Curate' of North .Povey) :wal then read, and laid oPoir the ' table of the House. The Bishop of EXETER, inexOlamition, said that he never should have used the word proscribed, in reference to those pe titioners, whose prayer it- was peculiarly lti.4 ditty to present to the House,, had not the expression been authorised , by the sar casms dealt out, agzinst them. There were many witys of dis couraging petitioners, short of . rejecting theta ; -but lie be lieved and' trusted that- the Clergy would, never be . ch..terrl'd from petitioning by such methods as- bad lately been re sorted to in disfavour -of. them. -He rather thought, on the contrary, that the opposition of scme Nuble• Lords on ti other, side, partaking more of zeal than discretion, would create more such petitions than they zither had expected tur wished. LOrd KING observed, that he'was arse -the Clergy Ware proscribing the Catholics, but they certainly were not proscrib ing themselves. * The Bishop of L kNDAIT could not consider the present quvstion in the light which some Noble Lords viewed' it, mertly as ft Cilia question . , or matter of policy, amitiothivig more. cording to his conception of the •point, it was , eminently th,t question which mast concerned the Established Church, atml upon Which its Clergy :were in duly. bound to 'Petition- 'thel.• 'Lordships. Ariten,, however, the propel*, .titto ctriie, , it- would 0444 e. -difficult to silt tv, ho . di on civil and. religious rounde; that the Clergy were t a kin g th e on l y step which it behoved thtto to take at this crisis. The petition he had to present was from the Ari;lnloacon. and f-Aergy of the Diocese of Oxford, who were candid in their state ments, and, he hoped it hardly need be added; respectful iu their knguage. But if every such petition, when &rend to t 4 is House, was regularly so be assailed, end subjecttd- ; to •n elaborate discussion, it would be rather hard upon th e Clergy. • - The petition- was read, and laid upon the table cif the House. The Bishop. of CII EsT.E it rose to present , a petition from , the Clergy of Manchester, which was (the Rev. I:istiop sa id ) Signed by 41 - Clergymen. On movi:T, the readii:-, cf this De_ tition, he observed, that he could not, afterwhat had passed, but express his satisfaction at finding that the petitions of the Clervy had at length found their level. He had also-to congratubite the. House upon the admission matte by a Noble' Lord+Oppnsite anti station that even such Ce...nw;a.rsse'ionwir.in.gßtuott,hliheaisrtiojw.: nion, the distinction drawn by dm Noble Baron,.with.respect to liberty and power, was like restriction and punishment— even that Noble Baron wind admit that curtailment and restrictians on the liberty of the sul.,;cct might happen to be_proper. Wes it not possible, then, that a bbtly of pcoOe inigh'tholei such ot4- nions as rendered them not proper to be admitted to condu th ct e - business of' the &ate. Whenever the opinions of any Sewaf persona were inimical to the civil peitty they were -unlit to be entrusted with the civil power. The question was,.ultimately, this--whether the Roman Catholics should be admitted to rule their brethren and fellow-subjects ? This evil might, or might not, be-proximate, but, if further concessions were again to Lw made, it was among those contingencies from the effect of whirl it was : proper to guard. With respect to the Clergy, it coi4ld not be asserted, with even the appcarahce of candidfaith, tlytt in their petitions they, had dictated.to th e i r L or d s hi ps the pr.f else course it becapie.the - Route-to. adopt ; but they certrad7v had 'stated their opinions.-opinions which, concerned theist ritst much'individualiy as professionally i and froin : ' which it wits impossible for such characters, to tl'irink rilthout a d er elithon from the duty they owed. both to Church and State. • PA iti,I,A.AIENT, HOUSE OF LORDS, APRIL 13.
