FOREIGN WOOL TRADE, LEEDS, JUNE 7.—The advanced prices which are being realised, as well at the German Wool Fairs as the London sales now progressing, have given a firmer tone to prices in this market; but stocks being very low, and the choice only indifferent, few sales of importance have been effected. _ _ _ ENGLISH WOOL MARKET, LEEDS, JUNE 7.—There has been rather mere inquiry for wool this week; but there has not been any material increase in the amount of sales. The prices offered by the manufacturers are very low, and de cidedly lower than the proportion of prices at which supplies can be obtained from the farmers. WAKEkIELLI WOOL MARKET, JUNE 7.—During the week we have had rather more inquiry for some descriptions of combing fleeces—but the prices offered are such as few holders are disposed to submit to—and little business has been done ; no movement in other descriptions, and prices nominal. YORK WooL MARKET, JUNE 6.—Our market has bees. well supplied with wool to-day; which met with a ready de mand, scarcely any being left unsold. Prices varied consi derably according to the quality. RIPON WOOL MARKET, JUNE 6.—We had a fair show of weol at this market, and a good attendance of buyers. LEEDS.—The supply of low-priced goods still continues very limited in proportion to the demand, and from the scar city of wool of low qualities it is probable it will remain so for some time, as wool of low qualities will not be brought in until the duty comes off; from these circumstances low goods sold freely both on Saturday and Tuesday, and prices are rather higher upon those qualities, whilst upon finer goods there is no alteration. The shipping houses continue busy, but the home demand is slacker in consequence of the advanced pe riod of the summer season. On the whole, however, there is considerably more business than usual doing in the ware houses at this period of the year. HECKMONDWIKE BLANKET MARKET, JUNE 6.—Prices continues firm ; there was a fair demand for good samples both on Monday and to-day, but the manufacturers corn plain of low prices. BRADFORD MARKET, TIIURSDAY.—There has been a nu merous attendance of merchants at our piece market to-day, who appear disposed to operate more freely, particularly for merinos, which are very low in stook, and can only be had by being ordered, and for these full prices are realised. In other goods a fair business has been done. This being the first Thursday in the month, many contracts have been en tered into, and more firmness is generally exhibited by spin ners; the export houses are. more disposed to buy than for several weeks past. There is more inquiry for combing wools this week, and upon the whole rather more business has been done; in prices there is no marked difference. TRADE OF MANCHESTER, THURSDAY EVENING.—The accounts from China and India are most favourable for the trade of this town and district; large sales have been made at better prices, and large orders have been made for imme diate shipment, so that things since Tuesday have assumed a more healthy appearance, though on that day a good, and even a large.busmess, was done both in cloths and yarns. This, with the low price of the staple, has given great con fidence to buyers, and an excellent demand not only exists, but is also expected to continue.—Leeds Mercury. ANOTHER HOAX AT BASLOW.—A few days since, it appears that a man called at the house of an inhabi tant, professing himself a vendor of peppermint, and as having some of the delicious beverage, of excellent qua lity. for sale. The bottles—as a matter of course—we're corked, and doubly sealed, " not to be drawn till pur chased;" but, for the satisfaction of his customers, be carried small samples with him ; one of them was tendered to the person referred to, who, upon tasting, pronounced it excellent. After some little parleying and persuasion, the vendor prevailed upon her to become the purchaser of two bottles. Having obtained the money, the vendor disappeared. Upon the return of the husband in the evening, he was duly apprised of the excellent bargain which his wife supposed she had made during the day—but—amazement !—upon the corks being drawn, the contents of the bottles proved to have been distilled n. at some neighbouring spring I This is the se cond time the same family have been shamefully duped ; and this notice is given in order to put other persons on their guard against tho tricks of itinerant swindlers.

SPIRIT of the PUBLIC JOURNALS. FROM THE EVENING PAPERS OF THIS DAY. G LOBE.—We perceive that Mr. Christie has given notice of a motion to insert a clause in the Ecclesiastical Courts Bill, for admitting graduates of all the English Universities to practice in the Ecclesiastical Courts. We hope the House of Commons will agree to this reason able proposition. It would do something towards lessen ing the various mischiefs which the Bill proposes to inflict on the public, among them, that of allowing the country practitioner to unite in his single person the combined characters of proctor and attorney, and to pocket the costs of the double profession. It has been found in practice, that a business in common law and conveyancing, with occasionally a little bankruptcy, is as much as a country practitioner—deprived as he is of the opportunity of immediate reference to coun sel—can conveniently manage. Although fond of ap pending " solicitor" to his name, it is very unusual, except in the large towns, to practise in that branch of the law. If, then, a competent knowledge of the practice and procedure of the Court of Chancery is found incompatible with a due attention to the tech nicalities of bankruptcy and common law, we leave it to our readers to imagine what a medley of confusion will arise from this incorporation of ecclesiastical " quips, quaintnesses, hieroglyphics, and enigmas." It will be something to alleviate the mischief by a mixture of gentlemen who have received a liberal education. Another effect will be, that Dissenters who, on ac count of objections which have force with them, may hereafter find themselves involved in a church-rate suit, may have their interests represented, if they choose it, by counsel who have graduated at the London Uni versity, and are themselves Dissenters. We do not consider this of particular importance so far as any individual contest may be alone concerned. We have no doubt that the case of a Dissenter is as sedulously and efficiently advocated by a counsel of the most High Church principles as it would be by one of his own views. But it does not end here. It is but reasonable, it is indeed important to the general well-being and to the interests of the Establishment itself, that among the gentlemen who practise in its Courts, should be found a not inconsiderable section whose personal feelings lead them to look with jealousy on any procedure which bears hard on the Dissenters. The Church gains no thing by making martyrs. John Thorogood's range of neat cottages at Chelmsford, built with the proceeds of a subscription raised by his sympathisers, and, quaintly enough, called after the churchwardens who imprisoned him, settles this point. The severity of his punishment has not more deeply impressed the good people of Chelmsford, or the generality of the commu • pity, in favour of the Establishment. We may, there fore, take it for granted that the Church will maintain its ground with more ease to itself, and advantage to the public, by cultivating peace with the Dissenters, and by divesting collision, where collision is unavoidable, so far as possible, of its present irritating character. Now we all know the influence of the bar upon the adminis tration of the law, and even upon legislation. While the administration of ecclesiastical law is entrusted to a body, the entire of whom are, if not hostile, at least alien to the feelings of Dissenters, nothing can be more certain than that, as against them, much un necessary hardship and irritation is unavoidable. When a Dissenter has pleaded his own cause, he has frequently damaged it by a woful ignorance of ecclesiastical practice. Where he has confided it to counsel, however eminent, the strictly legal points of the case have alOne been brought before the Court. When the judge has pronounced sentence it decides against a course of conduct which the very counsel who defended it was unable to appreciate or even understand, and with which, therefore, he could not sympathise. Few as may he the parties whom defeat leaves satis fied with the justice of other courts, it is morally im possible that, as things are at present consitituted, a Dissenter should ever be satisfied with the justice of the courts ecclesiastical. He looks now to an adverse de cision, and his consequent imprisonment, as the last links in the chain of oppression. His enemies, he thinks, have then done their worst ; and he naturally resolves that when that worst is ended, he will do his. Upon the unhappy effect, as to both parties, we will not com ment. W e trust the House of Commons will consent to the introduction of Mr. Christie's clause into the Bill. We cannot but believe that the hardships of the existing law, so far as regards Dissenters, would be mitigated by it, and we hope ultimately reformed altogether, by the admission of Dissenters into the ecclesiastical court. It might produce a series of improvements, like many of the Chancery orders of the last sixteen years. Pro mulged like them, after being subjected to the careful scrutiny of the leading members of the profession, the practice would receive many ameliorations, which no Act of Parliament can be expected to ant. Were the law thus made certain, rather than harsh, and prompt in decision rather than oppressively expensive, a different spirit would speedily be imparted to these contests. The effect would be similar in kind to that which the cha racter of nn eminent minister of the Establishment is known to have produced—who, for his fervent piety and a tolerance so ample that he is probably unconscious of its influence, has been repeatedly characterised as " the most dangerous enemy with whom Dissent has had to deal." STANDARD.—The intelligence brought by the Queen of the West, which left New York on the 21st ult., developcs a little more fully the projected policy of Governor Tyler, in reference to the annexation of Texas. The President has made, upon the demand of the senate, a communication, from which it appears that, anticipating no difficulty at home to the final ratifica tion of the late treaty, he had prepared for a war with Mexico as the immediate consequence of the arrange ment, ordering a fleet to the Mexican Gulf, and an army to the frontier. This is the President's own account of the affair, but Mr. Tyler must be a very weak man if it is a true account. None but a very weak man could so much miscalculate the feelings of the Senate to say nothing of the interests of the whole re public, as to fancy that the treaty would not be ob structed; and, under that delusion, to present belligerent preparations, justifying the obstruction, and making his government ridiculous. A solution of the affair more respectful to Mr. Tyler's understanding, if net to his honesty, is the hypothesis that he sought to provoke a quarrel with Mexico by martial display, the effect of which would be to enforce the success of his • darling scheme of annexation ; for though a war might not necessarily follow the final rati fication of the late treaty, it is very cer tain that all parties in the United States would agree to a hurried ratification, as soon as they had heard of a single act of hostility on the part of the Mexicans. Be this, however, as it may, one fact seems to bo clearly established by Mr. Tyler's Message, and that is, that whether before or after the annexation of Texas, a war with Mexico must accompany that arrangement ; and this war will be a very serious thing. It is true that there is apparently no proportion between the respec tive powers of the two republics, but when climate and a difficult country are on the side of the defenders, these will go a great way to compensate the preponderance of numbers, and even of military qualities, on the other side. And then there is the slave population in the United States ; and everywhere a slave population is, and ought to be, the ally of the enemy of the slaveholders. The contest on the land side would there fore be by no means so inevitably favourable to the United States at first might appear, and though successful in the end, the United States might find that they had made but a sort of Algeria conquest —an earnest of future and more perilous wars with more formidable opponents. On the side of maritime war, again, the United States appear to possess an immense superiority over Mexico, which may be more apparent than real ; the States themselves, we believe, it was who first set the example of very liberally lending a national flag to privateers, and even borrowing the enemy's own ports to fit out these torments of commerce. It cannot be forgotten that the so-called American privateers by . which our commerce suffered most in the American revolutionary war, were in fact fitted out in British Torts, and too often manned by renegade British seamen. Now, the United States must expect something of the kind in a war with Mexico. The drab men of Pennsylvania would not scruple a pro. fitable investment in the plunder of their felbw-citizens, any more than they would balk at a project for cheating their kinsmen of England. A war even with Mexico would, in this way, annihilate the commerce of the United States ; while Mexico would all the while become richer and stronger, both in resources and alliances. The journals of the United States seem to have a pretty just view of the necessary effect of this disgraceful scheme of Pre sident Tyler, to entrap the commonwealth into a ruinous war ; and some go so far as to call for his im peackment. As to the impeachment, it is a matter upon which we, as foreigners, have no right to offer any opinion, further than to remark that the be ginning of a course of impeachments is unfortunately most dangerous in those systems of government where unfortunately impeachments arc most frequently neces sary—namely, in democracies. The case must be a strong one which authorises unsheathing the sword of justice against a magistrate anywhere, particularly where the ma gistrate's commission is the sole controlling influence; and yet in democracies, for this very reason, that they are subject to no rivalships of royal, aristocratical, or other traditional moral influence, magistrates are most likely to provoke vindictive justice by abuse of their position. The inference is, that democracy is a bad form of govern ment, that gives birth to dangerous crimes. which itself makes mote dangerous to punish. These considerations, however, apart, it is satisfactory to see that the Presi dent's warlike and ambitious propensities are not popular in the States. TATTERSALL'S.-THIS EVENING.

The Earl of GLENGALL moved for a return of the number of children under fourteen years of age in the workhouses in Ireland.--Ordered. The Marquis of CLANRICARDE gave notice that on Monday he should call the attention of the House to the subject of the Irish poor law. •.• _ . _ _ Several petitions lvere presented against the union of the sees of St. Asaph and Bangor. The Marquis of NOItMANBY gave notice that, to morrow, he should ask whether the report as to the sanatory condition of the poor would soon be before the House; and, also, whether it would contain any recom mendation or suggestion for the remedy of the evils which were now complained of with respect to the sana tory condition of the poor. NIGHT POACHING BILL. On the motion that this Bill do pass, The Earl of RADNOR said he should continue not content to the passing of this Bill, as he believed it to be unnecessary. Earl FITZHARDINGE supported the Bill. He denied that poachers were driven to the commission of the offence of poaching by distress. The Bill was then passed. The Copyhold and Customary Tenures Act Amend ment Bill was read a second time. HOLYHEAD RAILWAY WAY. The Marquis of CLANRICARDE said that as the report respecting the harbour of Holyhead was not yet beford the House, he would postpone his motion for a Committee on the- Chester and Holyhead Railway Bill till the end of the week. Lord MONTEAGLE thought it was a great hard ship upon the promoters of this Bill to be kept in sus pense by these repeated postponements. He thought the Bill ought to pass forthwith. The Earl of WICKLOW also thought the Bill ought to pass. The Earl of DALHOUSIE said it was the intention of the Government, in case a direct line of communica tion between Holyhead and London should be made, to recommend to Parliament to make a grant for the im provement of Holyhead harbour. The Marquis of CLANRICARDE thought the mat ter ought to be referred to a Committee before their Lordships adopted the Bill. He had no wish to prevent the Bill from passing ; but he thought it right to be fully considered in its details before it passed. —(Hoar, hear.) It was essentially necessary that provision should be made for the formation of a proper harbour at Holyhead, and also that there should be a good bridge beside by the Company across the Menai. Lord DALHOUSIE said that it was not unprece dented for Parliament to pass a Bill to enable a railway company to form an interrupted line, where th ere were arrangements in progress for filling up the gaps. Lord RAYLEIGH said that it was the intention of the Company to apply to Parliament next year for a Bill to build a bridge across the Menai. Lord DALHOUSIE said that her Majesty's Govern ment had come to the determination that Holyhead was the preferable route of communication with Ireland, but he was not able to say what the expense of making Holyhead a good harbour might be. Lord BROUGHAM objected to any infringement upon the Standing Orders of that House, in respect to private Bills. He thought that it would be very credit able to the other House of Parliament, if that branch of the Legislature adopted those Standing Orders. The Marquis of LANSDOWNE was most desirous of improving the means of communication between Great Britain and Ireland. But he agreed with his Noble and Learned Friend (Lord Brougham) that it would be highly inexpedient to give any instructions from the House to a Committee on a private Bill.—(Hear, hear.) The Duke of WELLINGTON understood that the Bill was for a railway to Holyhead, which must be carried across the Menai Straits, and as that could not be effected by means of the present bridge, there must be a new bridge made for the purpose. No new instruc tion to the Committee was necessary.—(Hear, hear.) faThe Marquis of GLANRICARDE said that as the Bill stood at present there was no objection upon the company to build the bridge. They were only to carry the line to the I Menai, and passengers and luggage were to be conveyed across the Strait in boats. After a few words from the Bishop of Bangor, Lord Monteagle, and the Marquis of Clanricarde, the Bill was read a second time, and ordered to be committed. LAW OF LIBEL AMENDMENT BILL. This Bill went through Committee, and was reported. We did not ascertain the day appointed for the third reading. The House then adjourned. HOUSE OF COMMONS. The SPEAKER took the Chair at the usual hour. The Eastern Union Railway Bill was read a third time and passed. The minutes of evidence in the Croydon and Epsom Railway Bill were handed in. Mr. M AURICE O'CONNELL presented 111 pe titions from various places in Ireland against the Irish Registration Bill. DISSENTERS' CHAPELS BILL. Petitions against this Bill were presented by Lord Ashley, Col. Vernon, Mr. Scholefield from Birmingham, and Mr. F. Maule from various places. Mr. BUTLER presented a petition from Ireland com plaining of the monopoly at present possessed by the Bank of Ireland, and praying for the adoption of the Scotch system of banking in Ireland. Captain A'COURT presented a petition from Tam worth against the Savings' Banks Bill. Mr. SHARMAN CRAWFORD presented a petition from the congregation of Lyle Hole, county of London derry, praying the House to pass a Bill to make valid all marriages by Presbyterian clergymen. Mr. R. YORKE presented petitions in favour of the Dissenters' Chapels Bill from York. Mr. BRIGHT presented petitions against the Dis senters' Chapels Bill. Lord CLIVE presented five petitions against the union of the Sees of Bangor and St. Asaph. Mr. BARNERY presented several petitions against the Dissenters' Chapels Bill. Dr. BOWRI.NG presented several petitions from Roman Catholics in Lancashire in favour of the Bill. Viscount COURTENAY presented petitions from Exeter against the Bill. Mr. BIiOTHERTON presented petitions in favour of the Bill. Lord R. GROSVENOR presented a petition from St. George's, Ilanover-square, against certain clauses in the new Poor-law Bill. Mr. M. J. O'CONNELL presented four petitions from various parts of Ireland in favour of the Dissenters' Chapels Bill. Mr. W. 0. STANLEY presented petitions against the union of the sees of Bangor and St. Asaph. Lord J. STUART presented petitions from Ayr, in favour of the Dissenters' Chapels Bill. The Earl of HILLSBURY presented twenty-four petitions against the Dissenters' Chapels Bill. Mr. DIVETT presented petitions from Ottery St. Mary against the Dissenters' Chapels Bill. Mr. LOCH presented several petitions to the same effect. • Viscount CASTLEREAGH presented petitions from parishes in Down, in favour and against the Bill ; also petitions praying for a Bill to legalise Presbyterian mar riages. Mr. S. O'BRIEN presented a petition from Ketley against the Dissenters' Chapels Bill. Mr. HUME presented several petitions in favour of the Bill. Sir JOHN TROLLOPE presented a petition on the sub!ect of the Currency, from Mr. Leicester Melville, and moved that it should be printed with the Votes. The Hon. Member also gave notice of his intention to call the notice of the House to the suggestions of the petition when the Bank Charter should be under discussion. Mr. MILES presented several petitions from Somer setshire against the Dissenters' Chapels Bill ; and a pe tition praying for the establishment of a bishopric in Manchester. Mr. IIUME gave notice that on Thursday he should call the attention of the House to some recent proceed• ings in Caithness in reference to statute labour assess men ts. Dr. BOWRING gave notice that to-morrow he should put a question to the Noble Lord, the Secretary for the Colonies (Lord Stanley), in reference to some unpaid claims in the island of St. Helena ; and th.it on Thurs day he should move for amended returns as to the har bour duties of the Isle of Man. CONVOCATION OF THE CLERGY. Lord JOHN MANNERS presented a petition, signed by several members of the Established Church, praying for a revival of the Convocation. VINEGAR AND GLASS DUTIES BILL. On the motion of the CHANCELLOR of the "EX CHEQUER, the 'Vinegar and Glass Duties Bill was read a third time. WAYS AND MEANS. The order of the day for the House resolving itself into a Committee of Ways and Means, was read, for the purpose of being postponed until 'Wednesday. BAND. CHARTER. On the motion of the CHANCELLOR of the EX CHEQUER, the order of the day for the second read ing of the Bank Charter Bill was read, and ordered to be postponed until Thursday. Mr. HUME asked if it was to be understood that Thursday was the day fixed for the second reading of the Bank Charter Bill ? The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER—As far as anything can be ascertained it is. ECCLESIASTICAL COURTS BILL. On the motion for going into a Committee of the whole House upon the Sugar Duties Bill being put, Sir GEORGE GREY said he wished to know from the Right Hon. Gentleman opposite, when it was the intention of the Government to proceed with the Eccle siastical Courts Bill ? Sir JAMES GRALIAM said, to-morrow. SPAIN. Mr. P. BORTHWICK gave notice, that on the first day he could fix, he would move for re turns of all copies of correspondence which might have passed between Don Carlos and her Ma jesty's Government in this country, and between her Majesty's Government and the Government of France, and also between her Majesty's Government and the GoVernment of Spain, on the subject of the original pro positions said to have been made by her Majesty's Go vernment to Don Carlos, having for their object the pacification of Spain, and involving on the part of that illu,trious Prince all the sacrifices he could make to attain so desirable an object. HUSH RLGISTRATION. Mr. VERNON SMITH said, that in consequence of the answer of the Right Hon. Gentleman the Secre tary of State for the Home Department to his Hon. Friend the Member for Finsbury, he thought it would be well to know at what time it was the intention to commence public business. After a few words from Sir J. GRAHAM, Mr. T. DUNCOMBE said he thought the question propounded to the House by his Right Hon. Friend near him, was one of great importance. He (Mr. 'l'. Dun combo) had asked a question of the Right Hon. Baronet the Secretary of State fur the Home Department, ten minutes before five o'clock, when he was referred to the Right Hon. Baronet at the head of the Government.— (Sir R. Peel here entered the House.) He was glad to see the Right Hon. Baronet (Sir R. Peel) in his place.— (Laughter.) He had been asking the Secretary of State for the Home Department to fulfil a promise which was given last week, to state to the House the in tention of the Government with respect to the Irish Registration Bill. The Right Hon. Baronet had in formed him that his Right Hon. Friend would shortly arrive.—(Laughter.) In the meantime the Chancellor of the Exchequer rose and moved the consideration of the sugar duties.—(Laughter.) The Right Hon. Baronet (Sir R. Peel) had undertaken the other day to give sufficient notice of the intention of the Government to bring on the Bill. Now he thought they had really a right to ask whether it was the intention of her Majesty's Government to proceed with the Bill during the present session, and if so, on what day? Sir R. PEEL said that when he stated lie would give sufficient notice, he did not mean notice to persons in all parts of the three kingdoms.—(Hear.) Her Majesty's Government certainly wished to take the sense of the House on the second reading of the Irish Registration Bill. He was not prepared to state at present on what day the Bill would actually be brought forward, but he would do so to-morrow, and he would take care that proper notice should be given. TIIE Iltlkl ESTIMATES. Mr. M. J. O'CONNELL was understood to ask the Right Hon. Baronet (Sir Robert Peel) vb hen the Irish Estimates would be brought on ? Sir R. PEEL said that he was not at present pre pared to name a day, but he could say that they would be brought on as early as possible. There were, how ever, but two estimates which had not been already agreed to. SUGAR DUTIES. Mr. M. GIBSON wished to take that opportunity of making one or two remarks on the subject of the sugar duties. He was one of those unfortunate persons—(A laugh)—who, in consequence of the manner in which the subject had been placed before the House by the Noble Lord (Lord J. Russell), who proposed an equal duty of 345. per cwt. on all foreign sugar, were compelled to vote for that motion, without having an op portunity of guing into the question whether our West Indian Colonies were at all entitled to the protection of distinctive duties.—(Hear, hear.) He begged now to ask whether that vote would prevent his Hon. Friend or himAelf from voting against those distinctive duties ? Mr. GLADSTONE was not prepared to advise the Hon. Gentleman as to the course which he ought to pursue.—(A laugh). ➢lr. GIBSON then gave notice that he would move an amendment for the abolition of the distinc tive duties upon the reading of the preamble of the Bill. ECCLESIASTICAL COURTS AND DISSENTERS' CHAPELS BILLS. Mr. C. BULLER wished to know from the Right Hon. Baronet at the head of the Government, when he intended to proceed with the Ecclesiastical Courts Bill, and whether there was any probability of its being further proceeded with during the present session.— (Hear, hear.) He also wanted to know when the Dis senters' Chapels Bill would be proceeded with. Sir R. PEEL said that the Government had no great temptation to name an early day for the further consi deration of the Ecclesiastical Courts Bill, as they had not yet got through the first clause. Mr. C. BULLlnl—Cannot it come on on Friday ? Sir B. PEEL said that it was impossible it could come on on that day. As to the Dissenters' Chapels Bill, the Government were anxious to proceed with it as soon as possible. COUNT OSTROWSKI. Captain BERNAL wished to put a question to the Right Hon. Baronet, the Secretary of State for the Home Department. The liberty of the subject had been violated a few days since in the person of a Polish officer, who had not only been sent to prison, but the whole of his papers had been taken by the police. He wished to know whether that had been done by warrant, and whether the light Hon. Baronet was at all aware of it ? Sir J, GRAHAM said, his attention had only been called to the subject by what he had read in the papers. In consequence of what he had seen, he made inquiries that morning on the subject of the Police Commissioners, and he understood from them, that from private infor mation they had received the police captured the party, and the Commissioners thought the police were justified in apprehending the party. The charges that were made were proved before the magistrate, the party was held to bail, and if he was not satisfied at the course pursued, he had his remedy elsewhere. Mr. BLEWITT said, in his opinion there had been no justification whatever for seizing the papers of the individual alluded to, and more especially in the manner which in this instance had been adopted. DON CARLOS-SPAIN. Mr. BORTHWICK said he wished to put a question of which he had given notice to the Right Hon. Gentle man (Sir Robert Peel). The matter to which it had reference had been recently very strongly discussed both in the French and English newspapers. He wished to know whether any proposition had been made by Don Carlos in reference to the marriage of the Queen of Spain, whether such proposition had been submitted to the English Government, and what had been their answer upon the subject. Sir R. PEEL said, in answer to the question which had been put to him, he begged to state that a com munication had certainly been made to the British Government of the proposition made by Don Carlos, in reference to the marriage of the Queen of Spain. The communication was of an indirect and informal charac ter ; but it was to the effect that the son of Don Carlos should be united to the Queen of Spain. The Hon. Gen tleman (Mr. Borthwick) asked if the object of the propo sition was not the tranquillisation of Spain ? That certainly was stated as a chief object by Don Carlos, but her Majesty's Government did not think the effect of those propositions would be such as were anticipated by the parties making them. The propositions had not been very distinctly put, but Don Carlos, in making them, did not relinquish for himself and for his son a claim to the throne of Spain. The course the English Government had taken was to make the Government of Spain acquainted with the proposals of Don Carlos, and this on the principle thatthat Government alone was competent to d3cide the question.—(Hear, hear.) He (Sir R. Peel) might at the same time be al lowed to state his opinion that the question was not a mere question of personal claims, but rather one of great constitutional principle. The propositions of Don Car los had been referred to the proper and competent authority—the Government of Spain. Lord PALMERSTON understood that the opinion of her Majesty's Government was, that the arrangement proposed by Don Carlos would not accomplish the object at which it professed to aim, namely, the tranquilli sa ti on of Spain. He wished to ask if, its communicating that proposition to the Spanish Government, the British Government had expressed its own opinion as to the effect of the proposal, or if it had simply made the com munication to the Spanish Government? Sir ROBERT PEEL replied that the main object of the proposal was to bring about a marriage be tween the eldest son of Don Carlos and the Queen of Spain. It was also stated that in case of that proposition being entertained, Don Carlos would state the concessions which he was willing to make to accomplish that marriage. What those concessions were to be was not stated. He had not stkted whether he er not necessarily complain of that, t o wa i ve , on b ehalf of himself and his d h i a r d eet beenm manner—he made, h e _ perhaps,didson, every cl a i m t o t h e throne of Spain. It in an • be nin- cauie Don Carlos having no representative at our Court, the proposition could not have been made in any other manner. The British Government had contented itself with making the communication to the Govern• ment of Spain, but had not expressed any opinion in favour of the acceptance of the proposal, because they did not think that its acceptance would tend to the tranquillisation of Spain. The differences existing' in Spain were not differences with regard to questions of succession, but differences with regard to different modes of government. The British Government had not concealed that opinion from the Court of Spain, but it had used no influence in favour of the proposition, neither had it thrown any obstacles in the way of its acceptance. Lard PALMERSTON agreed in the views of the Right lion. Baronet as to the fact that the proirsition would net lead to the tranquillisation of Spain, Lut the mere fact of the British Court having transmitted th e pro position to the Court of Spain would seem to gi ve a weig h t to it to which it was not entitled, and would i n d uce the Spanish Government to believe that the Briti s h G overn _ meat was in favour of the proposition. He wished t o k now whether the British Government.in treatin g the proposi tion had given the Spanish Government to understand that it did not approve of it. Sir R. PEEL had transmitted the proposition to the Spanish Government, merely because he considered it was the 'duty of the Government not to withhold such a proposition from the knowledge of the' Spanish Government ; but he could under take to say that it was impossible for the - Spanish Government to thinlc that the British Govern-' ment approved of that proposition, or entertained the least idea that it would conduce to the tranquillisation of Spain. Lord J. MANNERS understood there was no ambi• guity in the proposition of Don Carlos, • Sir R. PEEL said there was no direct statement of the willingness of Don Carlos to waive his personal claims to the throne of Spain ; but if he was to waive his per sonal claims, and insist on those of his eldest son, that he apprehended would be no waiver of his claim of hereditary right to the throne. Mr. BORTHWICK thought that all he had heard rendered it expedient that he should continue the notice of motion which:he had given. CUSTOM-HOUSE FRAUDS. In answer to an Hon. Member, The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER stated he intended to make a selection of the evidence taken by the Custom House Commission Inquiry, and to have it printed. hr. FLUME thought the whole of the evidence ought .o be printed. SUGAR DUTIES. The Order of the Day was then read. On the motion that the Speaker do leave the Chair, Mr. JAMES rose, and said that he hoped he might be permitted to make a few observations on this ques tion ; first, because he did not often trouble the House ; secondly, because there had not been a full discussion on the second reading ; and, thirdly,, because he was one of those unfortunate beings called a West India planter, not through any fault of his own, but because, some cen turies ago, an ancestor of his was encouraged by the Go vernment of that day to invest money in the purchase of a West India estate in the island of Jamaica, and who expected that future Governments would not legislate to injure, much less to destroy the value of, their property. Ile proposed, in the first place, to take the opportunity of expressing his conviction that few Members of the House were really acquainted with the exact facts of the case, or with the unfortunate condition in which the West Indian ' interests were now placed. He thought he could best illustrate their condition by his own situation, and that was peculiarly favour. able as regarded the cultivation of West Indian property, for he was not exactly in the light of an absentee proprietor, having a son residing in the country who was acquainted with the business, and also an over seer, who :had resided there several years, and was thoroughly acquainted with the mode of cultivating sugar. There were no mortgages on the property, and he had no occasion, as many had, to employ merchants and pay them two-and-a-half per cent. He had only to pay a commission broker. Now what was his case ? Every pound of sugar he imported from Jamaica, taking an average of three years, cost him 4d. in the production and transport. What happened when it arrived in this country? The Chancellor of the Exchequer immediately put a tax of 3d. per lb. on it, thus making the price 7d. A great deal had been said about the dearness of sugar, but all he had been able to get for his sugar was 6d. per lb., thus losing lb. or 500/. on every 100 hogsheads of sugar. This was not a very pleasant position to be in, with regard to pro perty which, during the existence of slavery, was worth 3,0001. a year, and, during the apprentice ship system, half that sum, and he had done everything to diminish the cost of cultivation. What was the cause of this mischievous state of things? Was it not the existence of a tax of 3d. upon their staple commodity, sugar ; and nearly a prohibitory tax upon rum ? Let it riot be forgotten that these taxes were proposed by Mr. Pitt expressly as war taxes. Any gentleman who would refer to the debates of that day, would find that Mr. Pitt promised when the sugar duties were imposed that they should be the very first to be taken off whenever peace was established ; and yet there they were, nearly thirty years after the commencement of the peace, and the taxes remained precisely the same. They had heard a great deal about the 20,000,0001. He had more than once said, that although a very munificent gift, it was but a small compensation to the West Indian planters for the loss which they sus tained. He would like to know how gentlemen in that House would feel, if after their property had been ruined by the repeal of the corn laws, the Hon. Member for Stockport should rise and propose to give them 2s. 6d. in the pound as compensation ? They took from them their slaves, and, up to that time they threw every possible impediment in the way of their availing themselves of free labour. They had been asked, why, if they lost by their estates, they did not abandon their cultivation ? They had not abandoned the cultivation up to that time, because they relied upon the justice and the sympathy of the Members of that House, and he would fain hope that they did not altogether rely upon a broken reed. He did not hesitate to say that many of the proprietors in Jamaica had been treated more cruelly than the slaves had ever been treated. The slaves had always had a supply of good and wholesome food, whilst, by the legislation of that House, proprietors were rendered destitute. Did any one believe that if they were as powerful as the landed interest such measures would be proposed as were then under conside ration IHe was sorry to see thelgreat discouragement which had been given to their interest by the change of opinion on the part of the Right Hon. Baronet at the head of the Government. • As to the opposition of the Honourable Member for Dumfries ' he did not con sider it very formidable ; for he brought forward such' wild, extravagant, and ultra views on all sorts of subjects, that he really did not think any rational person could coincide in his views. —(Hear, hear.) He regretted the course pursued by his Noble Friend the Member for the City of London. What he chiefly complained of in his Noble Friend was, that he did not come forward at the - same time to propose the repeal of the Emancipation Act. If they were to have slave labour sugar admitted into this country, let that act be repealed. To give an advantage to slave countries which cannot be possessed by their own colonies, did appear to him to be a course of legislation which was calculated to make them the laughing-stock of every nation in the world. If they really wished to benefit the people of England, it could only be effected justly in one way, that was by diminishing the costs of production in their own colonies, and gradually reducing the tax. Let them only have plenty of free labour, reduce the tax on Colonial sugar from 245. to 12s. •, by that means they would do amplejustice to the West Indians, and confer an important benefit on the people of England, whilst at the same time they would suffer nolo: s, but would ob tain a gain on the revenue by the largely increased consumption that would take place. He would not say anything more for he had almost given up the case as hopeless. Mr. EWART said his Hon. Friend had charged him with asserting rash propositions, he thought his Hon Friend ought to recollect that these propositions had been made year after year. He maintained that the commerce and manufactures of the people of this country were affected by the discriminating deities which his Hon. Friend had attempted to defend. His Hon. Friend there fore came into Court not as plaintiff, but as defendant. He (Mr. Ewart) certainly could not understand the conduct of those Hon. Members whom he considered to be represented by the Hon. Gentleman who had last addressed the House (Mr. James). Were they, then, actually coming down to that House to protect and uphold the system of monopoly ? There was, however, a want of skill as well as a degree of partiality in the conduct of this class of Members who now came down to make common cause with the monopolists. The Hon. Gentleman (Mr. James) had made an attack on the Right Hon. Baronet opposite (Sir R. Peel), which it would have been better to refrain from. It was easy to rake up speeches delivered over a course of many years, and to cavil at them ; but for his (Mr. Ewart's) part, he thought it the duty of a Prime Minister of that to watch opinion as it advanced, and to endeavour to keep pace with it, and glad was he find that, however, slowly the Right Hononourabl Baronet was disposed to move onwards. The question how ever, now before the House was, whether one part of our colonies was to be benefited at the expense of the general well-being of the country. Such a system would be, in fact, ultimately injurious to the planters themselves. No worse policy could be pursued than that of retaining those differential duties. Throw open the sugar trade, and the general commerce of the country would be increased to an almost illimitable extent. No measure, except that of the repeal of the corn-laws, would do so much good as placing the sugar trade on a proper foundation. What he (Mr. Ewart) wished to see done was this—to reduce the duty to what it was before the war—to what it was, for example, in the year 1790. Then the duty levied on sugar was 12s. 4d. per cwt. Unless they reduced the duties upon sugar so low as to increase the consumption among the labouring classes, they would do nothing. The real consumers of all commodities were the labouring classes. He would re mind the Chancellor of the Exchequer that it had been show before the Select Committee that nineteen twentieths of the tobacco consumed in the country was consumed by the labouring classes—(Hear, hear)—and he would venture to say, that the consumption of :tea and coffee was in the same propor tion. Unless they could bring the price of sugar down to fourpence per pound, they would do nothing. The rich consumed from COlb to 701 b of sugar per head per annum, and the poor only 71b. The rich amounted to 5,000,000, the poor to 23,000,000 ; thus, the power of consumption of 23,000,000 persons re mained undeveloped. A; great quantity of sugar was formerly consumed in Ireland, but at present owing to the high duty, the consumption in Ireland had diminished to an average of 7 lb. per head per annum, in stead of an average of 21 lb. per head per annum, as was the case in England. In consequence of the high duty, adulteration took place to a very great extent, amid the poor man who consumed the muscovado sugar suffered exclusively from those adulterations, for the rich man consumed only refined sugar. With regard to the West Indian interests, the more honest course would be to let them know the worst at once.—(Hear.) The false support on which they had heretofore leant could not last more than a few years, and his Hon. Friend would find that out. It would be better for the West India interest to come to a wise compromise in time, for it was beyond all doubt that the present false system could not last, and his Hon. Friend lied proved it was injurious to the West India interest itself. They were in a false position, out of which it was their wish to extricate them. It was a remarkable circumstance, that the foreign trade had increased in a much greater proportion than the colonial trade. Let them look to the case of Bristol and Liverpool. The former was dependent on a colonial trade, and had not ad vanced, while Liverpool, which had extended its trade to all parts of the world, bad made rapid 'advances. It was the same with regard to Havre and Bordeaux, the latter of which depended on the old colonial system. He had certainly once introduced to the House a pro posal for extending the cultivation of free labour sugar, but it was rather to agitate the question than with any idea of its adoption. For his own part, he regarded commerce as the great emancipator. (LEFT SPEAKING.) It is understood that the Court of Directors have agreed to the re -introduction of the system of corporal punishment in the native army of India.--Wav al and Mili tary Gazette. _ • PROMISSORY.
