The resolutions on the corn trade, about to be proposed by Lord Milton, have been printed. The object of the Noble Lord appears to be the establish ment of a fact which is by no, means doubtful--:viz. that " the existing regulations for the trade in corn do not prevent those fluctuations in its price, which are alike injurious to the cultivators of the soil, and to the consumers of agricultural produce." The re solutions state the average prices in England, from July, 1828, to February, 1829, at 675. and a frac tion per quarter; and from March, 1829, to Fe bruary, 1830, at 641., &c. per quarter ; while the mean prices (incorrectly called average) in the follow ing ports, viz., Riga Dantzic, Hamburg, Co runna, Leghorn, and Philadelphia, were, during the former period, 425. 10d. in the following ports, viz. Amsterdam, Rotterdam, Antwerp, Havre de Grace, Marseilles, 535. lid. ; and in the first series of ports (substituting New York and Baltimore for Philadelphia), during the latter period,—namely, from March, 1829, to February, 1830, they were 465. 3d., but at 'Rotterdam, Antwerp, Havre de Grace, and Marseilles, 595. I Id. The resolutions then go to show the quantities of imported corn, and the amount of duties received during the above pe riods; as also the striking fluctuation in the averages between July 31, 1828, and February 11, 1829, the first of which was fixed at 565. per quarter, and the latter at 755. 11d., being a rise of 19s. 10d. per quarter in 28 weeks; whereas the average of February, 1830, was 565. Id. per quarter, being a fMll of 19s. 10d. in .51 weeks. It seems therefore clear enough that if one object of the existing Corn Law be uniformity or steadiness of prices, that ob ject, or indeed any approach to it, has not been attained. We recommend the concluding resolu tion of the series to notice, as a proof of the clear- ness and good sense with which Lord Milton, one of the greatest landed proprietors in tire kingdom, has brought his mind to bear upon the operation of laws professedly enacted for the security of the landed interest. " 13. That the said regulations obstruct the commercial intercourse between Great Britain and foreign countries—that they enhance l i the price of provisions in this country—increase the cost of production of all the manufactures of the United Kingdom, including corn itself—render the industry of this nation less capable of competing with that of other nations, and aggravate the dis tresses of the people." This is a subject which cannot be too often or too earnestly discussed in Parliament, because we are convinced that every discussion will bring with it an accession of con verts, even from among the landed interest, to -the cause of common sense and of humanity.—Times. It would be difficult to say what was the object of Lord Londonderry, in the observations which he made last night in the House of Peers. What con ceivable advantage can arise from knowing whether, during some period of the negociations respecting Greece, Austria and Prussia took a different view of the subject from that entertained by the three Powers who signed the treaty of London ? Every body knows that the conduct of the Austrian En voy, at Constantinople, for a long time embarrassed the proceedings of the parties to that treaty; but surely in exact proportion to the difficulties, from whatever cause, which have impeded the settlement of the question, is the merit of those who have con quered those difficulties. His Lordship does not pretend that Austria or Prussia are now opposed to the objects contemplated by Englani, France, and Russia; but if it were otherwise, we cannot sup pose that his Lordship seriously apprehends any dis turbance of the peace of Europe from such a cause. The Noble Lord calls himself a Turk, but even as a Turk he might be content with an arrangement which the Sultan has fully ratified. Perhaps we may be allowed to ask what arrangement his Lordship in his character of Turk would pro pose : we suspect it would be one which no friend of Greece would sanction, either in or out of Parliament. One advantage at least accrues from his Lordship's candid avowal of his Philo- Turkism : it must be a signal to every friend of Greece to repudiate such an ally. In the discus sion on the Abolition of Fees' Bill on the demise of the Crown, the Lord Chancellor made the following satisfactory declaration :—That the Lord President of the Council and the Lord Privy Seal had aban doned all advantage to be derived from the renewal of appointments to public offices; and he himself also readily relinquished any claims of this nature that he possessed. In the House of Commons last night, the Chancellor of the Exchequer consented to modify the additional spirit duties, announced in his speech upon the budget, and which have since that time created repeated public meetings throughout Ireland and Scotland. By his original notice there was to have been an additional duty of Is. per gallon imposed upon all corn spirits imported into England from Ireland and Scotland, and 2d. per gallon (ad ditional) upon the quantity consumed within these two countries. The Chancellor of the Exchequer did not accompany this proposition with any essen tial alteration of the rum duties, so that the Irish and Scotch manufacturers raised a hue and cry that they were sacrificed to the West India interests, and that rum would at or:ce drive their whisky out of the market. Under this feeling a strong Parlia mentary opposition was organized, to combat the Chancellor of the Exchequer's new Bills, after every effort had failed to induce him to depait from their principle. Last night,however, he departed from his original plan, and, as far as appearances go, has given complete satisfaction to the previous dissen tients ; his amended proposition is, that instead of the additional ls. duty in England, and 2d. in Ire land and Scotland, there shall be a duty (additional) of 6d. per gallon in each of the three countries, in cluding rum ; which at once satisfies the Irish and Scotch interests, as they are ready to compete with rum when taxed upon the principle of reciprocity laid down by Lord Goderich. To meet the diffi culties of the West Indian interests, the Chancellor of the Exchequer affords relief in their sugar duties. He proposes that when de London Gazette price of sugar is at 30s. per cwt., the duty shall remain as at present, 275.; when 2s. under that price, the duty to be 1/. ss. 6d.; when 4s. under, 1/. 4s. 61; 3s. under, 1/. 3s. 6d.; and at ss. under, the duty to be 1/. ; the low duty evidently administering relief in the article of the coarser sugars. With respect to the spirit duties, the Chancellor of the Exchequer gave no explanation of the course he means to take respecting the stock on hand. lli s ne w duties, by his resolution o f last night, are to operate from the 14th of June. But the budget duties in Ireland have been since March partially in a course of collec- tion amid consideraLle resistance. He said nothing of the newspaper stamps ; but the conversation last night among Members was, that these also would be modified. —Tinges. Some further conversation about Greece took place last night in the House of Lords. An insinua tion was thrown out, that Lord Aberdeen's declara tion that the production of the papers sought for on Friday night would be inconvenient to the public service, was an after-thought, as he had the other day expressed his readiness to produce them. Lord Holland inferred from the papers already produced, that something more had passed than appeared on the face of the documents on the table. " This P' ; mint," he said, " he gathered from one of the an nexes to the Protocol of the 15th June, 1827, which related to a period soon after the declaration of war between Russia and the Porte. There a manifest tendency on the part of Austria, to draw nearer to the parties which had undertaken to restore peace' was talked of; and it, at least, showed that formerly that tendency did not exist ; and hence it was supposed she had given some indication of a wish to support Turkey. A knowledge of this fact might place the assurance of Atitria in a different light. It might, it was true, be detrimental to the public service to lay those papers before the House ; but he did not exactly see how it could be so ; and if there existed anything to show that the assurance of Austria were not sincere, it ought not legally to be withheld."— So much for diplomacy and official assurance.— Morning Chronicle. The Chancellor of the Exchequer proposed last night some very important alterations in the Duties on Sugars and Spirits, which, from the manner in which they were received, seem to threaten a warm discussion. Hitherto there has been paid a duty of 275. on every cwt. of sugar, no matter what the quality. He proposes that the duty should vary with the price, the highest duty being 275., and he expects, from the increased consumption of the low priced sugars, that the falling off in the revenue will not be considerable. The prices of sugar are taken upon the average of each weekly sale in the London market. When the average price is 305., then there shall be paid on all sugars that do not exceed that price by Is., a duty of Is. 6d. less than ' the 275., or, in other words, a duty of 11. ss. Gd. On sugars of less value than 30s. by 35., there shall be paid a duty of 1/.45. 6d.; of less value than 30s. by 45., a duty of 1/. 2s. Gd.; less than 30s. by ss. a duty of 1/. ; the reduction on the lowest price of sugar amounting to 7s. He calculated that the re duction of the duty of 7s. the cwt. on the coarsest sugars would increase the consumption one-third. Assuming that as the whole of the duty given up amounted to 35,0001. or 40,000/., and that the more than one-half of that sum would be returned, he proposed to make good the deficiency by a modifi cation of the duties on spirits. Instead of the duties announced at the commencement of the Session, he had been led by subsequent inquiries to think that the method of doing justice to all parties would be to impose a duty of Gd. a gallon on Scotch and Irish spirits, to put a duty of Gd. also on English spirits and on rum, so as to place the whole of the Colonial and British spirits on the same footing. From this alteration lie confidently calculated on an additional revenue of 200,0001. The Chan cellor of the Exchequer went into a variety of cal culations to show that the estates which produced the coarse sugars suffered more than those which produced the fine, and that the plan (which he de scribed as a temporary experiment) would, there fore, relieve those who stood most in need of it. On he other hand Mr. Huskisson observed, that, " was a very questionable matter whether the measure of the Right Hon. Gentleman would operate as a relief to the West Indians. The most distressed of all the West Indians were our old Colonies, which produced very little of that kind of sugar to which the Right lion. Gentleman gave a reduction of duty ; while the least distressed Colonies, such as Demerara and others, sent to this country a vast quantity of that very kind of sugar. Another argument was urged against the plan by Mr. Hume, that as all alterations in taxation produced a change in the quantity or quality of production, this plan would make the low kind of sugars to be extensively cultivated by the colonies, and the con sequence would be, that if the Right Hon. Gentle man found his temporary plan did not answer, he would step in with some alteration ruinous to those he now encouraged. Mr. Herries, in answer to some questions from Mr. John Wood, announced that it was his intention, at the earliest opportunity, to state the changes which he should introduce inter the Act regarding the refining of Sugar. The dis cussion of the Chancellor of the Exchequer's plan was fixed for Monday next. As a number of pow erful interests are concerned, there will be abund ance of stir made.—Morning Chronicle. The Colonies of this country are at present a heavy burden on us, r.nd we have not even the con solation that by this burden we are benefitting the Colonies, for the money talon from us is applied to purposes hostile to their interests. The burden on ourselves, and the degree of injury to the Colonies, keep pace with each other. Last night several proofs of this were given in the House of Commons. The first vote was for Nova Scotia. In 1826 the Revenue collected amounted to 15,0001.—the amount of the salaries of officers employed in the collection amounted to 6,250/., so that a sum of between 8,0001. and 9,0001. only was paid into the Exchequer of the Colony. And how is it that the collection of the Revenue costs so much ? Because it is necessary to find situations for gentlemen possessed of Parliamentary influence in this country. The Collector of the Customs receives 2,000/, and the Comptroller 1,000/., while the salary of the Chief Justice is only 850/. When gentlemen of consequence condescend to take situations in such places as Nova Scotia, suitable incomes must be provided for them. It is not the value of the work done which is considered, but the value of the workman. In this way the Colonies are made to appear exceedingly expensive, while in reality the whole of the expense is caused by Government ap pointing men large salaries to fill offices in the Colonies for purposes connected with our own Par liamentary system. In Jamaica, and in some of the other West India Islands, possessed of Assemblies, there has been long battling about the salaries of the Officers of Customs, &c. imposed by Govern ment on them, the colonists contending that there is np proportion between the value of the service and the reward. Hence the dislike to Colonial As semblies, and the disposition to govern all the con quered Colonies according to an arbitrary system : " The whole of the sums expended in Nova Scotia (ob served Mr. Hume) under the present circumstances, were expended in th e m a intenance of a system of misrule, by which the people suffered. It bad been stated to him, ' that if the Colony appointed its own establishments, they would give the Collector of the Customs only 5001., and the Comptroller only 3001. a year ; and that if they were but allowed to manage their own affairs, they would make a similar reduction in all the other establishments of the colony." The idea of a colony not being equal to its own civil expenditure involves an absurdity. It must be a strange employment of industry, which will not afford as much as shall protect the society from the aggressions of each other. We make ourselves re sponsible for their defence against foreign aggres sion, or rather, we use these colonies as stations for ships, and as depots for troops ; and it would be hardly fair to charge the inhabitants with this part of the expenditure, which is required only for British objects. But it is quite different with the Civil Establishments. These are Colonial objects, and the expenditure ought in no case in an old Co lony to exceed the revenue. A gentleman with an estate of 500/. a-year ma) find a steward who would consent to receive a. salary of 400/. a-vear ; but the gentleman would be laughed at if he did not place his establishment on a scale suited to his in come. In our Colonies the revenue ought to be considered as the reward of offices, and not the no tions prevalent in England. But Prince Edward's Island is infinitely a more scandalous affair than Nova Scotia. There an Ex-Governor had been pensioned off at the rate of 500/. a year on certain quit rents, which quit rents never had an existence, so that the pension might as well have been at once placed among our superannuations. The reason why there arc no quit rents is, that there are no people; but though people are wanting, there is a Governor with a salary of 1,5001. a year, a Chief Justice with 1,9001. a year, and an Attorney-Gene• ral. What a mockery ! It was well said some years ago, by a clever writer in the Edinburgh Review, that whenever a rock could be discoVered in the ocean, large enough to hold a British . garrison, it was eagerly occupied, that a preteV might be ob tained for keeping up an expensive establishment at the expence of the people of England.—Morn.Chron. The many urgent complaints made of the vexa tious prosecutions set on foot by the Stamp Office will, it is hoped, be put an end to under the new Stamp Bill now in progress through Parliament. It is not to be endured that honest tradesmen, and others who have no disposition whatever to evade the laws, should be entrapped into offences against them by a set of needy unprincipled vagabonds, who infest the metropolis in the c.ipacity of in formers. No sooner do these men get hold of some article that, amidst the vagueness and complexity of the Stamp Acts, can, by some stretch of construc tion, be brought within them, than they forthwith sally forth in parties, each taking its particular beat, and in a few days not less than three or four hundred, informations are laid at the Stamp Office, and an equal number of Exchequer Writs issued by the Solicitor. A few who have too much spirit to sub mit to such unwarrantable proceedings stand out, and refuse to compromise, and these are permitted to escape because the informers, knowing well that they should fail of success if the parties came into Court and defended the prosecution, drop it at once; and knowing also that there is a good harvest to be reaped from the great majority, who, not liking to have their names coupled with a revenue prosecu and aware, moreover, that even a verdict in their favour against the Crown would be attended with a very heavy cost, embrace the offer of com promise in the first instance, and pay down the sum extorted from their fears, or from their prudence, conceiving the first loss the best. This most dis graceful system has been practised, we have reason to know, to a great extent, and cries loudly for a stop to be put to it. As far as the Stamp revenue is concerned, the Commissioners of Revenue Inquiry deserve no thanks from the public for the dissolution of the late Board. It is but within these two or three years last past that we have had public meet ings and petitions to Parliament to seek redress against what Mr. Hume very justly called " the Stamp Office persecutions." We trust we shall hear no more of then - I.—Morning Chronicle. SECOND EDITION. SUN OFFICE, SEVEN o'CLOCK. MPERIAL PARLIAMENT THIS EVENING. HOUSE OF LORDS. The Loan CHANCELLOR took his seat on the Wool sack at a quarter past Five o'clock. Sir A. GRANT, Mr. H. 13ATLE4, and others brought up the Militia Ballot Suspension Bill, and a Private Bill. Petitions were presented by the Marquis of Ormonde, from Killkenny, against the increase of taxation in Ir land ; by Lord Hardwicke, from Royston, against the punish ment of death in case of forgery ; by Lord Teynham, from a parish in Sussex, against the Malt and Beer Duties; by the Earl of Limerick, from the Chamber of Commerce of Limerick, against the proposed increase of Duties on Spirits in Ireland ; by Lord Lorton, from Cornwall, against the punishment of death in cases of forgery; by Lord Shed mersdale, from an Individual residing at Liverpool, for a law to prevent the payment of labourers' wages wages in public-houses: on Saturdays ; by Lord Fal. mouth, from Truro, against the punishment of death for forgery ; by Lord Holland, from the Protestant Dis sentars of Uxbridge, Maidenhead, Sudbury, and ceveral other places, to the same effect. The Noble Lord ob served, that he most heartily concurred with the praye of these petitions. By the Bishop of London, from Bury St. Edmund's, to the same effect ; by the Duke of Richmond, from the wool-growers of Suffolk. The Noble Duke at the same time gave notice that he should not bring on any subject this Session. In doing so he must not be understood as thinking the wool-grow ers were not entitled to relief—no set of men more so ; for he formerly believed the agricultural interests of this coun try were rapidly hastening to decay ; the Marquis of Lon donderry from the city of Londonder6r, against the pro posed duties on stamps. (LEFT SITTING.) HOUSE OF COMMONS. Mr. MOORE „presented petitions from two of the Cur porations of Trade h. Dublin, tr;li:l't the proposed in crease of duty on Irish stamp..

Mr. O'CONNELL did not tlink it very decorous is applying the term idolatrous to conscientious Christians, who would prefer death rather titan be compelled to wor ship any person or thing besides the one only living God. The want of charity, however, on the part of the peti tioners should not cause him to nverve from the principle that it was unjust that any hunan being should suffer from any conscientious feelings.—(Hear.) Lord KILLEEN fully concurred in the opinions and feelings of his Learned Friend, when he was a petitioner at the liar of that House for liberty of conscience, for him self, he always professed his conviction that no person should suffer for his conscientious worship of God, and from that principle lie would rover depart.—(Hear.) Mr. BROWNAN presented a petition from Armagh, against any increase of Taxation in Ireland. Mr. O'CONNELL presented a similar petition from Waterford, and three petitions in the c ,unty of Wexford, against the Sub-letting Act ; and also five petitions from the county of Clare, praying for a Repeal of the Union. Mr. CHARLES GRANT presented petitions praying fur a repeal of the Ditties upon Sugar, from the Merchants of London and Glasgow. Mr. O'CONNELL, in presenting a petition from Sut ton, in 'Wexford, against the Vestry Act, gave notice that in the first week of the next Session of Parliament he should bring in a Bill to repeal the Vestry Act. The ' Hon. Member then presented a petition frum the Brewers of Dublin, praying for a reduction of the Duty on Malt ; and also another petition from the parish of St. Marks, • for a reduction of the Duty on Coals. r Mr. G.
