Canadian Parliament had met, and before, therefore, it was possible to ascertain what elections would be petitioned against, the Noble Lord at the head of the Colonial Department had felt it his duty to transmit to the Governor of Canada a dispatch conveying, not the thanks of her Majesty, but Ids own expression of approbation of the conduct of Mr. Young and Captain Wetherall for the efforts which they had so successfully made for the preservation of the public peace ; and he had desired that this expres sion of his approbation should be communicated to those gentlemen. There had been no thanks returned in the name of her Majesty, and no statement had been made beyond the expression of the approbation of the Executive Government to the Executive officers for their exertions.—(Hear, hear.) Mr. HITME thought the House ought to have be fore them the details of the circumstances which had led to the extraordinary changes which had recently taken place in the public mind in Canada. Great dis content now reigned in the colony, and if they wished to preserve the colonies in a state of usefulness to the country they must govern them according to the wishes of the majority of their population. While Sir Chares Bagot was there unanimity and con tentment reigned, but no sooner had a change of Iklinistry taken place than discontent arose. The Governor dismissed his Executive Council, and for nine months governed without one. This gave rise to dissatisfaction and discontent. Hence had arisen those scenes which had taken place at the elections; and it appeared to him to be necessary that all the documents connected with the subject should be laid before Parliament, so as to enable them to ascertain what had caused these sudden changes. He protested against the present 'system of government. _ _ objection; it was that a sum of 18,404,500/. be granted to pay off Exehequer-bills issued for the ser vice of the cm rent year. Mr. FIUME hoped that the laxity observable in the Exchequer-bill officers on late occasions would be checked in future. _ Mr. WILLIAMS hoped that, from the present abundant state of the finances of the country, a reduction upon the interest of Exchequer-bills from lid. to lid. would be made. He would venture to suggest that the Exchequer would suffer nothing by this reduction in the rate of interest. He threw out these observations in the hope that Government would adopt some measure for that purpose, and he was fully of opinion, that in the pre sent state of the money market, that change might be effected with perfect safety. The CHANCELLOR.of the EXCHEQUER said that the same observations had more than once been repeated, at different times, by the Hon. Member ; but in the policy of tho-e suggestions he (the Chan cellor of the Exchequer) could not by aoy means coincide, for it must not he forgotten that there was a vast difference between what might be considered a permanent debt, and sums lent out for short periods at a small rate of inte r-st. With reference to the papers sought for by the Hon. Member for Montrose on the subject of Exchequer-hills, he (the Chancellor of the Exchequer) did not think there would be any objection to their production. Mr. T. BARING said there was an apparent diffe rence between the vote of this year and that of last, amounting to one million two hundred thousand and odd pounds. He wished this to be explained, for he found by the paper some of the parties were paid before they were actually due. He wished to ask what benefit had been derived from the reduction in the Three per Cents., which ought to have produced to the re venue 400,0001. There was another question which he should be glad to have answered. He would he glad to know whether the whole of the Chili:" com pensation money had been paid ? The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER, said he was prepared to give the Hon. Member satis factory answers to his inquiries. The Honourable Member would be aware that when he proposed to effect a reduction in the interest of the Three per Cents., he availed himself of the oppor tunity of obtaining powers to pay the inte rest in the various stocks at uniform periods, an , l, in order to effect this, it became necessary to pay some of the interest before it became due. For in stance, one stock paid interest half-yearly, while others paid quarterly, and thus to make the time uniform the interest, in one or two instances, was paid in October, when hitherto it was not paid till January. There was no reduction in October, 1844, but when they arrived at January, 1845, the reduction would be made apparent. These accounts would be rendered up 'to the sth of April, 1845. He hoped this answer would satisfy the Hon. Gentleman so far as it concerned his fir-t question. With respect to the second question, as to what benefit would be derived from the reduction in the Three-and-a-Half per Cents., the Right Hon. Gentleman would be aware that the Act directed the reduction should be made from October, 1844 ; and from the circum stances he had before stated the benefit would not commence till January, 1815, but would not be made apparent in the revenue returns of April ensuing. 'With respect to the third question, relating to the opium compensation money, he might say that the whole had been paid. There was, however, a sum of 1,5001. in dispute, and as yet unpaid, and that was the whole extent to which any future payments would be made in respect ti b f com pensation. The sum 0f.18,404.5001. was then voted to defray the expenses of Exchequer-bills. The House then resumed, and the Chairman re ported accordingly. Sir R. PEEL begged to be exempted from serving on Election Committees, on account of his official duties. The application having been gcceded to, the House adjourned. SPfItIT of the, PUBLIC AffittNALS. FROM THE EVENING PAPERS OF YESTERDAY. GLOBE.— " We wage no war with madmen or the rint." The former would not understand, and the latter would be deaf to expostulation. But, as suming that Mr. O'Connell is neither insane nor venal—and giving those of his coadjutors who are also members of the Legislature credit for being pos sessed, equally with himself, of sound self-disposing minds, and of pure patriotism—we confess ourselves at a loss to comprehend the motive by which they are actuated in absenting themselves from their Parliamen tary duties. Their speeches and their acts are in perpetual antagonism. Their speeches at the weekly meetings held at the Conciliation Hall are filled with attacks upon the measures connected with Ireland which her Majesty's Government intend to introduce to Parlia ment during the course of the present session ; a n d y t during n exhibited.l Members n em t ceu c theseutoman Commons ot to patriotic hfnorosotutdehevery eaprrh yae has stl measureslrishaebeenmi reni ti o b Nn roos Nothing at f nbhgse t e h i nen discussions ia H ns bcgsouuus them selvesrss oitnoysf if we except the way in which a number of Irish farmers at a fair showed their antipathy to a bank, the proprie tors of which had rendered themselves obnoxi ous to the popular. dislike. The farmers took the pains to buy up all the notes of the odious hankers they could get at, and burned them in the presence and amid the shouts of the excited multitude. " Sure, and what will they do now Won't the bank be broke now so many of their notes are burnt ?" Similar folly is exhibited by the Irish repeal Men hers or Parlia ment. " We'll stay in Dublin, finding fault with the measures of Government ; we'll scold, in our own peculiar style of vituperation, every public man.und every public journal whose views are contrary to; or do not extend to the same lengths with, our own. We'll fiercely denounce the measures, and the men with whom they originate. But we'll not exercise our right to oppose these measures, where opposition would be legitimate and, to a considerable extent, effectual. We will keep where we are, magnanimously holding ourselves aloof from our Parliamentary duties. We will thus violate our duties to our constituents and our country; both of which we love with an intense pa triotic affection r Such is, in effect, the language of the Irish repeal Members. Who does not see— always, of course, excepting themselves—that they are playing the game of the Ministers whom they denounce as enemies to their country ? W hat does Sir Robert Peel—or any of his colleagues—or those who support his measures in Parliament, care for the vituperations of Mr. 0' :onnell and his coadjutors in the Conciliation Hall ? His and their absence from the House of Commons—being relieved from their presence, and, above all, from their speeches —constitute the theme of their congratulation. Ministers will carry their measures without the obstructions which might he interposed to their pro. gress were Mr. O'Connell and his friends present in the House. They will thus get through the business of the session probably a month sooner than they would do, were the eloquence of Mr. O'Connell and his Repeal coadjutors to be employed in the debates—a relief which they would pur chase at a large price, if money could procure it. But how does Mr. O'Connell reconcile his absence from Parliament with the obligations which he under took when he became a member of the Legislature ? Can the self-constituted Repeal Association absolve him from his engagement? Will the people of land—as distinguished from the mere mob- s -consider that trashy speeches, delivered weekly at the Con ciliation Hall, will compensate for regular attendance in and laborious appl , calion to the varied duties of Parliament? The public business of the country — we are willing to admit—can be conducted without him, and those to whom his example is a law. But can Mr. O'Connell hope to maintain his position with out Parliament? We trowmot. STANDARD.—The subjects which engaged the attention of the House of Commons last night were more important than interesting; for however it hap pens to be interesting, a topic must have something of novelty or something of the picturesque or senti mental ; and railroads, union workhouses, and parochial settlements present little that is either new, picturesque, or sentimental. The topics are, nevertheless, grave and very im portant topics. As far as we can under stand Mr. Wallace's very long speech, that gentleman wishes for a kind of railroad saturnalia, a railroad license in the gross and the detail, permitting all persons to run railroads wherever it may seem good to them, and then allowing the public to make use of them upon vi hat terms the moderation of railway travellers might. , award. This is a pleasant prospect enough. Railways running side by side, crossing, jostling, and intersecting each other at every angle of the qua/leant, for competition sake. But then starts up another question—what chance of competition, when travellers, are to be entitled to pay ad libitum, or, for that matter, to use the railway, upon Mr. Waliace's doctrine of the universal " liberty of locomotion," without payi n g anything ? We ap prehend that the adoption of this doctrine would put an end to all railways by a very s imple process. Lord Howick takes a very different view of the matter. If Mr. Wallace would have a railroad anarchy, Lord Howick contends for a railroad autocracy in the Le gislature or the Executive, it is not quite clear which. Railroads, says his Lordahip, are intended for the public convenience; but the public being blind to its own convenience, authority must in'erpose to guide it, and mark out the moat convenient line. The inference is just, were the antecedent correct; hut the antecedent is not correct : the public is, not blind to its own convenience, but " much more .clearisighted.. in the matter.than any legislature or any executive; and has a much stronger motive than either can have to exercise its di.cernrurnt. Rail. owls are aka! Ite , l for general conveuienzz ; but this cc,nnuieztle is to be paid for, and the more persons avail themselves of the convenience, the greater the number of the persons who will pay ; thus the probable amount of plyin,nts to be anticipated" affords an exact measure of the amount of convenience to he afforded, and this is the very same measure by which men calculate when they veffc ,, sr_ se to invest their money in railroads. Is it re,t a wiser cour , e than that tiro. posed by eit.ier Mr. Wallace or Lord to leave it tne pubic, es heretofore, to judge of the convenietA t lines, and reserve to the Legislarure the power of deciding against the inconv-nient lines ; and when a line convenient for one party happens to be inconvenient for another to arbitrate between them ? LONDON AND GREENWICH RAILWAY. The half-yearly genoral m.--ting of the Sh,.reholders ofthis Compiny was held yesterdw., at the Lond.m Mr. SHADBOLT, Chairman of thi• B aird of Dirovt took the chair shortly aft r -ne aid (ILIA up Mr. Wilson, the Deputy-Chairman, to read the report, which was as follows.— " Your Dir eters have great plea-ure in submitting to the Shareholders thirrir proceeding-, and the annexed statement of the aerow.ts of the C, nipeux, for the half year ending the 31st Dec- mber la-t.

Your Directors have contracted to sell to the South-Eastern Company the land atul buildings belonging to this Company not in cluded in such demise, at the sum of 18,000/. The engines, carriages, stores, and working-plw.t, have been taken by the howl' - Ens er n Company, at the sum of 22,8081. 1i s. 8.1 The term in the I. ase coma) nceti on the Ist cif January last, and the business ef the rail way has, since that day, been conducted on the aceonnl. and at the risk, of the South-Eastern Company. Anxious to perfect all the arrangements with as little (lela) as possible, your Directors have instructet your solicitor, in conjunction with the solicitor of th. South-Eastern Company, to prepare the draft of a Bill to be submitted to Parham. nt, and the clauses and provisions are und.T the c..nsideration of your Directors. By the annexed !accounts. a , examined and certified by the auditors, it will be seen that, after pa)itig all .r xpenses, together with interest on the mort gage debt and on the preference share-, there remains to the credit of the profit and loss account, including former balances, the sum of 2.5281 19s.

So soon as the matters in progress shall have been finally adjust, d, and the pri.cise state ofthe affairs ot theCompatiy ascertained, your Directors will call a Special General Meeting of the Shareholders, anti submit the resulzs, when they conti• dently anticipate that they shall be able to submit a plan whereby a considerable. diminution may he effeeted in the rate of interests now prqabie on the bonded debt Of the Company—an expectation warranted by the im proved and ascertained nature of the security. The Directors going out of office by rotation are Wm. Shad bolt, Esq., and Henry Wheeler, Esq., who, being eligi ble, offer themselves for re-election." The report was unanimously approved. received, and adapted, with two amendments, to the effect that Mr. Watkins, the transfer clerk, should receive a gratuity of 2001. instead of 125 L, as proposed by the areetiirs ; and that a pension of 151. per annum for life should be paid out of the assets of the Company to 'imp of their servants. named Nash, who had broken his leg by an accident in the discharge of hi. duty. A gratuity of 5001. was also voted to Mr. George Walters, the late superintendent, for his zeal and ser vices. _ In answer to a question from a Proprietor, the Chair man stated that the deed of assignment to the South- Eastern Railway simpany, and the Bill to be prescia , 4l to Parliament, would be submitted to a special general Meeting of the Subscribers, which meeting would be their last. Thanks having been voted to the Chairman, Direet ,, rs, and Auditors, the meeting separated in exceeding good humour. THE ENGLISH AT ADEN. The Oriental and Peninsula steamer Bentinek arriv d at Aden on the morning of the 31-4 of December, having 111 passengers on board, amongst whom were Sir Ro bert and Lady Sale, Lord Elphinstt.ne, and Prince Sol sikoff and suite. The Bentinck left for Calcutta at half-past ten P.M. on the evening of the Ist of January. Sir Robert Sale dined VI ith her Majesty's 17th.. The Imaum of Sanaa has not ventured to leave his ca pitol to attack Aden, as he is aeprehensive of another rebellion during his absence. Anether avowed enemy has appeared, in the person of the Sheriff' of Mocha, to dispute with us the possession of Aden. He is now at a place named Tais, 50 miles from Aden, where he ha, collected (reports vary) from 15.000 to 30,000 well armed Arabs, of their best tribes, to attack us, He is holing out every inducement to persuade the tribes in, the plain to join him. He has raised the green standard, and call( d on eve ry true b liever to join him in expelling the Infidel. This is not the time to preach holy war, even amongst Arabs. A few dollars, even with the most orthodox, have far more in fluence than the name of the Pla phut. He assigns no particular reason why he intends his attack. further than that it is his rots nttein to char Arabia of the Christians. It is exceedingly doubtful how far he will be able to pre vail over the ind pendent tribes, either by force or pro mises, to assist him in what they So well know is a hopeless cause. He may, howev. r, give us much trouble, and harass our troops, sheuai he sit down on the plain before the place, as we arc not in force sufficient to go out acid attack him, though that I believe. even with one small f Tee, would be the better Flan. 1t e have a gar rison of about 1,800 bayonets ; but from the extent and peculiar nature of the piece, not more than me hundred men can he teigetfe r in any given pl tee ; add to which, the place has been altogether ne glected. I regte , in , eed, very much to say, that no a•-tive measures hate yet been ne'opted to ciao commence the a orks. No experienced en. ire«r has yet been sent from India. Indeed. I should strongly re commend, that as Ad-n is and a ill continue of growing imp -stance to the Crown, entaineers or a superiete 'd ing engineer. shoul i be forthwith ord. red from E g land, to see the works at least commenced. Not that we have not clever and Ye.) able e. gineers in India, but the Governmeht will hot order teem up. The Sheriff of Mocha is the same indivhlual who, :lime e.:rs ago. cut down the Engle-h flag-staff anti exelted the British Consul from that place, and wee also "rote most in sulting letters to the Indian Government, and to Captain Haines. the Political Agent. This insult was subini!t d to, and a fair Opportunity lost of chastising an insolent petty chief who merelt exists by the sufferance of th. British Government. Should he now be so infatuated as to perpetrate an a- tack en our Lamson, I trust he wiil not again be allawed to escape without his place being, levelled With the ground. The trade will then re vert to Aden. Should the anticipated attack take place, I will furnish you with the detailed particu:ars. - The Arab who murdered the woman. as mentioned in my last, was executed on the 18th ult., on the spot where he committed the crime. An immens- crowd collected to witness the act of netributive justice; and though the putiishment of hangieg is excessive . oh noxious to Mussalmnes, arid only a few policemen were present, no excitement was observed amongst the peopl e , nor was one murmur of pity expressed in behalf of the wretch,d man who thus ignominiously paid the penalty of his unbridled passion. The Hon. Company's steam packet Berenice anchored this morning at halt-past 9 with 38 passengers. She. left Bombay on the evening of the Ist, at halt' past 11. The Southern Mahratta country is still as unsettled as ever, though a force of upwards of' 8,000 men st 11 occupy the country. Every fort iti the country should be levelled with the ground, and the inhabitants disarmed. Till some such measure is ad. pted continued rebellions may be expected, and when such extensive outbreakittgs occur it is difficult, to surmise where they may end. Had even this partial rising en masse taken place at a time, when all our troops, to a in in, were so urgently I equired for Sinde., how much would such an occurrence have embarrassed the Government? Destroy the forts and disarm the population, and then, hut most decidedly nut till tnen, may we expect to tranq 'Mists the country. tier Majesty's 94th Regiment are in orders to relieve h r Majesty's 17th Regiment, now at Aden. They were to embark on the 15th of January, and may be ex pected to reach Aden about the 10th proximo. The smallpox, which appeared at Aden two months since, and which proved fatal to several of the inhabi tants, has, owing to the judicious arrangements, nearly disapp are d, only one me niev remaining in hospital.

They thought it unnecessary, and, instead of an augmenta tion, a reduction ought to take place. The practice of war they believed was contrary to the spirit of Christianity, and entirely unnecessary. They desired the Government to appeal to reason, and use the power of arbitration, in order to settle any dispute that might arise between this country and foreign nations. The Hon. Member said he heartily con curred in the prayer of the petition. APOTHECARIES' ACT. _ Mr. HASTIE presented a petition from the sur geons of Scotland, praying the House to abolish the Apothecaries' Act. NOTICE OF MOTION. Mr. WALLACE gave notice that, on the 25th inst., he would cal the attention of the House to the report of the Commissioners appointed last year to inquire into the frauds committed in the port of London. PRIVILEGE. The Sergeant-at-Arms appeared at the bar of the House, and stated that an action of trespass having been commenced against him on the 19th of January in the prev4idp year, by a Mr. Thomas lloward, he had nclll , to state that a declara tion disclosing the cause of action was filed against him on the 23d of December, 1844. Under the advice of the law-officers of the Crown an appli cation was made to a judge in chambers on the 24th of December, 1844, and two months further time to plead obtained. The SOLICITOR-GENERAL said that, in con sequence of the information that had been received from the Sergeant-at-Arms, he thought it would he better to pursue the course that had been pursued in 1843. when a similar communication was made. He should propose to have the paper printed with the votes, and he we uld now give notice of a motion on the subject of those proceedings for to-morrow. DORCHESTER AND SOUTHAMPTON RAIL WAY. On the motion that the House resolve itself into a Committee of Supply, Captain HARRIS said that he wished to address a few words to the House on a subject which reflected on himself and a noble relative of his in the other House (the Earl of Malmesbury) with regard to the Dorches ter and Southampton Railway. Certain rumours had gone abroad that his noble relative hail influenced the Board of Trade with regard to this line, and that rumour had been strengthened by what had fallen from the Hon. Member for Dorsetshire. He did not believe that the Board of Trade could be influenced in their decisions by any person ; and he would not have said a word on the subject were it not for what had been said in the House with respect to it. The company who undertook the formation of the railway between Dorchester and Southampton communicated with his noble relative and him self on the subject, and they both saw the great importance it would be both in a local and national point of view ; it would place the defences of the country along the coast on a more secure footing, for, in case of invasion, cavalry could be conveyed with the greatest expedition, and the disembarkation of hostile troops at any point along the line could best be prevented by cavalry. On public grounds, therefore, as well as on private ones, they supported the line. A meeting was held on the sultject in the month of May, at which his noble re lative and himself attended, when subscriptions were raised to defray the engineering expenses. A second meeting was held at Dorchester in July. Certain resolutions were agreed to, and it was laid down as the rule that every member should take shares to the value of 5001. Several meetings were held in the autumn, and his noble relative having obtained an interview with Lord Dalhousie, the latter declined to come to any decision at that time, stating that he must be guided entirely by the public service. He had said so much both to vindicate himself and his noble relative, as he bad ever found that the House was ready to listen w;th indulgence on such subject's a- these.—(Bear, hear ) CANADA - . Mr. ROEBUCK then rose and said, that he had given notice of a question which he intended to put to the Government on the subject of the late elec ti.eis in Canada. He was reluctant to bring this question forward, as the Government of Canada at present was only an experiment, and he was ex tremely unwilling to express any opinion upon the proceedings , that were going on in that ceuntry. Circumstances had occurred, however, which now induced him to allude to the subject. During the last year Sir C. Metcalfe dissolved the Parliament of Canada. New elections took place, at which, particularly in Montreal, disturbances had occurred. A petition had .been presented to the Legislature of Canada complaining of the legality of the election, and impugning the conduct of the returning officer, the sheriff of Montreal. That subject was at the present moment under the consideration of the due and proper tribunals, and what he wanted to know was. this —whether her Ma jesty's Government had ini• peculiar circumstances to state or lay before the House, for the purpose of explaining the conduct that had been pursued, on the part of the Colonial Secretary, with re s , ect to the returning officer of the city of Montreal. He had been given to understand, and he wished to know whether such was the case, that notwithstand ing the o nnplaints that had been made against the returning officer, the Secretary for the Colonies had advised that a vote of thanks should be given to him. He wished to know whether the statements that had been made to him were true—namely, that the thanks of her Majesty had been given to the returning officer of the city of Montreal at a time when his conduct way under the consideration of the proper tribunal—the House of Assembly? and if that question was answered in the affirmative, the next question he should wish to put would be , whether there would be any objection to lay before the House the mode in which those thanks had been conveyed? Mr. G. W. HOPE said that, as the Honourable Member had given him notice of the question, lie was prepared to answer it. With respect to the election petition that was pending, he was not aware of it. What was known of the transaction he could state shortly. He was quite ready to produce the papers that had been adverted to. It appeared that., previous to the election at Montreal, an application had been made by the oppo si:ion candidate, in which he stated that the stipen diary magistrate thought it would be advantageous to commence polling under military protection. To this the returning officer would not consent, and in no case was military aid resorted to until it became essentially necessary. It was true that preparations were made t o p revent any di stur b ance ta ki ng p l ace, large a numl-e rs b e i ng expected to arrive. The mill t ry were in readiness, but they acted upon one oc casion, and one only. Everything was done by Mr. You ng th at could be to secure order and free access to the p o ll f or b oth sides • according to the report of Sir Ch ar l es Metcalfe, the era ful manner in whi c h th e e l ection was cgoeneduclte)deace owing to the course pur sue d b y the returning officer s The Governor expressed his gratifi cat i on that no life. had been sacrificed, and stated that gi:eat .credit was . due to the troops and to the officers, and that, without their assistance, it. would have been impossible for the voters to have exercised the franchise freely, in con sequence of the intrusion . of non-voters. On the re c zift ci that cliqatc ,l2 ) vtibla had turiqj bekre the • RAILWAYS. Mr. WALLACE, seeing the Noble Lord the Chancellor of the Duchy of Lancaster in his place, would ask him if it was his intention to press the second reading of the Railway Consolidation Bills to-morrow. He (Mr. Wallace) considered a longer time ought to be granted for the consideration of measures of so much importance. He, was prepar- d to propose two additional clauses in those Bills, and if they were pressed forward he should be obliged to give notice of those clauses to-night ; but he would much rather postpone his motion to a future day. Lord GRANVILLE SOMERSET considered it of great importance that the Bills should pass the Howe with as little delay as possible. He felt great disinclination to put off the Bills. He would move the Committee to• morrow night, and on this day week would bring up the report.—(Hear, hear.) Mr. WALL ACE was perfectly satisfied with the explanation of the Noble Lord, and would render him all the assistance in his power. THE PORTLAND VASE. Mr. CHRISTOPHER wished to put a question to his Right Hon. Friend, which:was suggested by the wanton destruction of the Portland vase. From the police reports of that morning, it appeared that the magistrate had no power to exact from the de stroyer of that precious relic of ancient art a penalty higher than a fine of five pounds, or to inflict a greater personal punishment than impri sonment, with or without hard labour. He begged to call the attention of his Right Hon. Friend to this subject, and he wished him to inf o r m th e House whether it was his intention, by legislation or otherwie, to take measures to prevent the recurrence of such an outrage ? Sir R. PEEL said the trustees of the British Mu seum intended to hold a meeting on Saturday next, for the purpose of considering this important subject; the result of that meeting would, in all probability, be some communication on their part to her Majesty's Government. He would, therefore, not express any opinion till that communication should be made. COMMERCIAL TREATY WITH BRAZIL. Mr. BOUVERIE wished to ask a question of her Majesty's Government on the subject of the commer cial treaty between this country and Brazil. It had been asserted that our commercial intercourse with that country must rest on a reciprocity treaty, similar to the one that expired last year, which was a treaty of that description. An additional reason for assuming this probability, which amounted indeed almost to a certmuty, was, that more than one-fifth of the exports of Brazil consisted of the article of sugar. Now, if the Brazilian Government insisted on a re ciprocity treaty in reference to this article ofcommerce, there was no prospect of any agreement between this Government and that of Brazil as long as that frivolous distinction remained on the statute hook between slave-grown and free-labour sugar. He apprehended that the Act passed last year on the subject had proved nugatory, inasmuch as the only sugar that had come into this country under that Act was imported from Venezuela, and was slave-grown, while that which was expected to arrive would consist, to a great extent, of North American sugar, from New Orleans, which was also slave-grown. If, therefore, this reciprocity treaty was to be concluded, the distinc tion must be abandoned, and he could only express a hope—which was also that of a large majority of the country—that the Right Hon. Gentleman would, as on many former occasions, put his consistency in his pocket, and remove this distinction. He would put the question, which was this—whether there was any negotiation, or likely to be any, between this country and the Brazilian Government for the conclu sion of a commercial treaty ? Sir R. PEEL said that no negotiations were pend ing between this country and the Brazilian Govern ment on account of any alteration in the tariff of import duties of that country. There had been a proposal made to the British Government in respect of one of the ordinary treaties of commerce, but there had been no change in the tariff duties. Mr. RICARDO hoped the Right Hon. Baronet would abandon the principle of these reciprocity duties, which made the commerce of this country dependent on that of others. Mr. M. GIBSON thought the Government ought to aban ion all attempts at tariff treaties. It must strike every person that the limits within which the Government could negotiate with foreign countries were too narrow to admit of much advantage. The difficulty did not lie abroad, but at home ; and he thought a negotiation with a cen'ral society for the protection of agrivulture would be more likely to lead to permanent results than any treaties with Brazil, or elsewhere. The fact was, class interests must be consulted before any great change could be made in the import duties even in the most necessary articles of human food. It was the Right Hon. Gentleman's adherence to protection and differential duties which prevented a successful termination to the negotiations with Brazil, and he d;d not anticipate the Right Hon. Baronet would give up these notions. The Right Hon. Baronet must know that when the Brazilian Government was informed by Mr. Ellice of the amount of duty which the British Government intended to impose on foreign sugar, as against British colonial sugar, the Brazilian Government at once cut short the nego tiation. He did not know whether he was at liberty to move for the production of the instructions of the Government to MT. - Ellice, but if the Right Hon. Baronet would consent, he should be anxious to see them on the table of the House. PROCEEDINGS ON THE BUDGET. Lord J. RUSSELL said, as the Right Hon. Baronet had given notice that on Friday he would make a sta:ement to the House of the greatest im portance to the commercial interests of this country, he was anxious to know what course the Right Hon. Baronet intended to pursue. Two courses might be taken. A resolution might be moved, which would leave the Hou-e at liberty either to affirm or reject it, or an amendment might be moved on the resolution. He wished to know if the Right Lion. Baronet intended to press the House to a decision on that day. Sir It. PEEL begged to assure the Noble Lord opposite, in reply to his question, that if it should appear inconvenient, he would not press the House to come to a decision on Friday next on the financial measures he should propose.—(Hear.) Upon that day he would endeavour to state to the House, as clearly as he could, what the views of her Ma. jesty's Government were with reference to the financial and commercial policy of the country.— (Hear, hear.) But, of course, in doing it, he begged it would be borne in mind that it was of the utmost importance that the House should come to a decision at as early a period as possible upon the proposals he should make • but he would repeat it, that he would nut, if it should be objected to, press the House to come to a decision on Friday.—(Hear, hear.) Lord JOHN RUSSELL—I think it will be con venient to take the sense of the House on the resolu tion of which the RiAt Hon Baronet has given notice. I should be very glad to give notice of any intention of mine, but that will depend on the course to he taken by the Right Honourable Gentleman, and I hope I shall be acquitted of any surprise in the course I-shall take 4iti that occasion. —(Hear, hear.) Such being the case, I hope the Right Hon. Baronet w ill consent that the vote should not be taken on Friday, and that he will name some other day for that purpose. Sir R. PEEL—I at once acquiesce in the proposal of the Noble Lord. With respect to the period of Easter, I trust the House µill feel the importance of proceeding with that business which may be proposed on Friday next with as little delay as possible. So far as Government is concerned, it will certainly be their duty to postpone the consileration of the other Nosiness until' the general views of the House with' respect to the future policy of the country have been ascertained. But I have no hesitation in- agreeing to the proposal of the Noble Lord, that no voto shall be taken on Friday next. . COMMIrTEt OF SUPPLY...
