t!octrine of restriction to any true county in tt:Jand, and it would be found that the doing ,to , yonld not have' the ellec of 'steadying the prices is that particular minty ; on the cruvrary, the bread wol,:ld be alternately high and low, ac cording c s thcre was a Eood or a bad harvest in' that parti,7;llar spot, deprived, as it would be, of intercourse- with the-t est of kingdom. As-the whole of England was to any particular county in England, in this re. , pect, such exactly was the whole. of Europe as to nngland. The evident ef fect of testrictions of this 'kind was, that ingeni ous irti,,ans and mechanics would g. abroad, and would settle where they could get cheap bread.— His object was to .;et rid of the question entirely 1 I:is Session of Parliament, and it any propo sition %vas made to that effect, it should have his 4,: r pf,t iqr, BARHAM was favourable to the proposed , alteration in the - Corn Laws, as to Importation, being. satisfied, that instead of raising the price of Bread, it would have exactly the contrary effect. He should vote against the Committee, because be thought the best way was to abandon the mea sure,- when the people would soon become sen sible of what they had lost, and would find that they themselves bail brought down the evil upon their own heads- Mr. P. MooRE thought the best mode of pro ceeding would he, according to the prayer of all. the Petitions, to postpone the matter-till the next Session of Parliament. Lord ComrToN kipproved of the appointment of the Committee, think lug it. essential that the country shooM become independent of foreign aid in so essential an article as that of Bread. The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER agreed to the alteration as to the wording of. his !notion, suggested'hy Mr. Canning. If it could be sun posed that the motion, as he .proposed originally to word it, coufd have the effect of fettering the. Committee, that was a sufficient reason why it ought to be altered. As to pledging himself t":at the measure should not he again taken up during the present Session, he could not consent to give any pledge of the kind. Every Gentleman, how ever, would he at liberty to think as he pleased on this part of the subject. Sir C. MoNck was urprised to hear it contend ed, that die House had no information on the sub ject now under consid era ti on . H a d they not the statute that bad been passed on the subject ? and had they not all the quarterly average prices of tho maritime districts as they had been published quarterly ? Were they not all on the table ? Mr. I;OCKHART was for the Committee, in hope that • no measure would follow upon the subject during the present Session of Parliament. Mr. RosE would rather than the matter were entirely postponed to the next Session, as there might in the mean time be a change of circum stances. He should not oppose the Committee, upon the understanding • that no farther step should be taken during the present Session. The gallery was then cleared for a division ; but souse further discussion ensued before they actually divided. Upon the division taking place, the numbers were— For the Committee 173 Against it 67 Strangers continued to be excluded from the gallery ; but we und e rst oo d, th a t u p on th e O r d er of the ay being read for taking into further con sideration the Repoit of the Corn Laws, The CHANCELLOR of the EX-CHEQUER moved, That the said Report should be taken into further consideration that day three creeks; and General. GASCOIGNE moved, as an Amendment, That it should he tulen into consideration that day six , months ; upon which the House again divided, when the numbers Ayes ll6 Noes . 106 The Bill was, therefore, lost. • The Highway bill was re-committed ; further consideration of the Report that day se'nnight. The Lottery Bill was read a third time, and passed. :Lord PALMERSTON postponed the Army Esti mates till Friday. The other.

The persons who embarked, at eleven o'clock on Monday, in the Impregnable, with the Emperor ALEXANDER, and King of PRUS SIA, were the Prince Royal of . PnusszA ; Prince ILLIAM, the King's Son ; Prince WILLIAM, his Brother ; Prince HENRY, his 'Brother ; Prince FREDERICK, his Nephew ; Princ6 GUSTUS, his Cousin ; Marshal BLUCHER ; Ba ron HUMBOLDT, his Chamberlain ; Count HAR DENEERG; Count tatsrdy - 4. Count BARCLAY DE „ TOLLI ;, Count NESSELRODE ; Baron ANSTEL Prince ADAM GARLDRISKE ; Dr. WYLIE, Physi- , cian to the Enaperor I Lord CATHCART ; Sir C . STEwART 5 COlonel Cooin; and Captain Wool,. Their Majesties retired to rest between ten and eleven. The Duke a CLAREIICE had provided a mogul- ficent entertainment for his Illustrious Guests, of Whi . Ch they almost universally partc►crk with great conviviality; except the Emperor ALEXANDER, whose prowess, so celebrated on land, did not enable hint to - conquer the new element to which he was exposed, Fifty-five horses are in relay at each of the five stages into which the route has been divided. • " Now are our brows bound with victorious wreaths; " Our bruised arms hung up for monuments; " Our stern alarms are chang'd to merry meetings, " Our dreadful marches to delightful measures: " Grim-visag'd War has smooth'd his wrinkled front." Tilt august Monarchs of RUSSIA and PausstA will this afternoon enter the British Capital. They arrived at Dover, yesterday, about half-past six o'clock, and were landed from the impregnableman of %vat- (a namesake of our Isle), under a Royal Sa lute from the batteries, 'which crown our dazzling Cliffs.—Much of the World as these high Per sonages' base seen, we will venture 'to predict, that their astonishment will bo unbounded, on witnessing the wealth, the splendour, and the majesty of Great Britain. The Emperor •of RusszA, as we are informed by letter, was to sleep. at Mr. FECTOR'S; the King. Of PRUSSIA, with Prince HENRY Of PRUSSIA, and the other Princes, at the York Hotel ; Lord YARnotint, with all the General Officers, &c. at the Ship Hotel. The troops were all otkt i - under arms, to receive our Illustrious Vi sitors, the guns manned, the ships with colours flying, and the shore in such a state with th e bus tle of preparati o n and crowd, that Dover never before witnessed a sights° captivating and mag- nificent. By a Telegraphic message received at the Ad miralty this forenoon, we learn that their MA JESTIES were to leave Dover at 9 o'clock this morning. The road is, we understand, crowded to excess, and as the distance is 72 miles, we can hardly expect their arrival much before 7 o'clock this evening. Then will they enter London !—We would recall no invidious comparisons, but can not help saying, it will be a ilaerent scene from their last entrance into a Foreign Capital. Avant Couriers are arriving every hour. The PRINCE REGENT has ordered his carriages to be sent to Shooter's-bill, to convey these August Visitors to the Metropolis. • The Kent-road, - and the streets about West minster, are airy filled with expectant mul titudes. The Treaty of Peace was laid before Parliament yesterday, and Lord CASTLEREAGH was received, in passing to the House of Commons and in the House, with that -warm tribute of applause due to the great services he has rendered his Country.— Some observations were made on the Article re lating to the Slave Trade, which were most satis factorily answered by the Noble Lord.. An extensive Naval promotion will take place, and (as we believe) be announced in the Gazette this evening. Thirty Post-Captains will be raised to the rank of Rear-A,lmirals, 100 Lieutenants will be made Commanders, and 200 Midshipmen Lieutenants. We congratulate our Naval Heroes on this just acknowledgment of their valour and conduct throughout this glorious• war. A promotion, to a similar extent, will be made in the Army. We• understand the - Commissions are all dated i iith June, in honour of the Birth day of our beloved Monarch. The amount 'of the Loan about to be contracted for is not yet ascertained. Twenty-five Millions for England, and five more for Ireland, it is sup posed, will be about the sum wanted. We have only heard of two lists forming, that of Messrs. BARNES, RICARDO, and Co. for the Stock Ex change ; and Messrs. BARING, ANGERSTEIN, and Co. We have French Papers to the sth. The Paris nelTs has become very uninteresting. _ The Corn Bill, as we yesterday predicted it -would be, has been lost in the House of Com mons ; lost, we hope, never more to be found.— We have given the Debate upon this subject at considerable length, because, though there was little novelty in the arguments used on either side, we are not aware of any political measure on the issue of which the Population of the Country was so deeply and so nearly interested. We, among the other Opposers of the Bill, have been, in ra ther gross terms, accused of inflaming a popular de. fusion respecting it : even Mr. WHITBREAD asserts that arts have been used to excite the People. To this_- we reply, that we are not in the habit of either stirring up or countenancing popular fermentation; and that if we were, still it needed no arts to persuade the People of Great Britain, that a quartern-loaf at nine-petree was better for them than a quartern-loaf at fifteen-pence. 'ln spite of the insinuations of his patriotic friends, John Nil, stupid as they represent hitn, bas entie enough to find out this . 6ict without prompt- But the accusation is utterly unfounded ; .witness the account given by Mr: W. SMITH of the Meeting at NorwiCh, which, for order, regularity, respectability, loyalty, and number, only resembled all the other petitioning Bodies which have assembled from one end of the kingdom to the other, to express their de cided but temperate opinion against this Not one of these innumerable Meetings bad any thing in common with the mob assemblies, to which they have been so indecorously compared by persons very conversant with the infamy of the fatter. The Sense of the Country has been con stitutionally and properly expressed ; and,we re joice to observe, that it had its due weight, and no more than its due weight, in the deliberations of the House, and determination of last night— that of inducing a pause, for the purppse of the More mature investigation of a measure against which so universal an apprehension prevailed in the Country. For Ourselves, we again profess to espouse the cause of no party. Our sole object is the good of the Nation; and Weshall be equally ready here after to protect, to the utmost of our bumble abi- iug. lities, the,Agricultural against any encroachments of the Commercial interests, as we have been zealously anxious at this time to guard against what we held to be the Unjustifiable .preten sions of the former. We want to have the produce of both at a , cheap rate for the People, and we know that Manufactures can not be cheap, either for home or foreign con sumption, if Corn is dear. We want to descend (not with a rapidity that would , defeat our pur pose but) gradually, and in a ratio consistent with the increased burthens of the Country, to a sane and healthful state .of prices in the body po -litic, and not to be confirmed by Act of Parlia-. ment, in the fever and delirium arising out of the distempered state to which a dreadful struggle had . brought us. Therefore we oppose the Perpetua tion of the Corn War Charges ; and the more, be cause-these. charges must have been the nu cleus of a similar perpetuation of the war prices of merchandize of every kind. •It , may be that the Land-owner will not acquire such ," exorbitant rents," but he will be reimbursed the deficiency by the general decrease of price in every article of consumption. If he receives less, he will conSequehtly have less to clothe his family, purchase his carriages, travel, in fine, experience at every turn a diminution of his ex penditure. Neither ought we to lose sight of the signal advantage this circumstance will confer f on our competition in manufactures in the Foreign markets—and on the prosperity of our trade, no one is so blind as:to deny, the well-being of our agriculture mainly depends. Our superla tive machinery and our stupendous capital may do much ; but without the aid of moderate prices of hand anti (consequently) labour at honie, foreigners would meet us in a dangerous rivalry- r -with this aid we will beat them at their own doors, and their goods will have no more chance with ours than, in a Cattle Market, hacks, for the food of hounds, would have . with 'tkorough-bred hunteri ! We would say more on this point, but have only room to refer, which we do with pleasure, to the sentiments expressed by Mr. CANNING, Mr. PHI LIPS, Mr. BARING, and others, which have our most unqualified approbation. Yesterday the PRINCE REGENT held a -Court at Carlton-house, which was attended by most of the Ministers and Officers of State. His Royal Highness afterwards held a Privy Council, at which the Proclamation of Peace was ordered to be issued. Dinner is ordered forie - ren o'clock, at Pulteney Hotel, - for the Emperor of RUSSIA, and at Cla . - rence House for thelc.ing of•PßussrA. Thc-brave General Ho.r, Lord Niddry, has ar rived in England. The QUEEN and some of the PRINCESSES are expected in town to-day. Yesterday the Prince of MECKLENBURGIT, ac companied by Colonel STEPHENSON, 'visited the Duke and Duchess of YORK ; the Princess CHAR LOTTE ; the Dukes of KENT, SussEx, and GLOU-, CESTER ; the Princess Soi , HrA Of GLOUCESTER ; the Duchess of - OLDENBURGH, Lord CASTLE REAGH, &c. Yesterday the Prince Royal of BAVARIA visited the Princess CHARLOTTE. The Duchess of 'YORK has been indisposed for some days past. Yesterday her Royal Highness took an airing in her carriage, and called upon the Duchess of OLDENBURGH, at Pulteney H o t e l. A Brazil Mail arriv e d yesterday, which we have accounts from Rio Janeiro to the Bth of April. A French frigate had appeared off Rio Janeiro, and the British line of battle ship on that station had gone in pursuit of her.—Advices from 'Buenos Ayres by the same opportunity mention, that the Revolutions had driven the'Montevideans from ColOna. Some naval conflicts had taken place between -the ships of Buenos Ayres and Monte Video., near Colona, when several Officers of the Royalists were killed, and a few of their vessels lost.
