EDWARD CHURCHILL, of the Kentish Royal Hotel. respectfully announces to the nobility and gentry that he has taken and elegantly fitted up with entirely new furniture the above mansion for an Hotel, which will be ready for company on the 7th of April. This spacious and handsome edifice was for some seasons the residence of her Majesty, when Princess Victoria, with her Royal Highness the Duchess of Kent. It is placed on an emi nence in Park-like grounds of great beauty and extent, com manding the most delightful and extensive scenery. It has been much enlarged and inaproyed, and is replete, with the_ most ample- - 16cOmni - odatiou for FaMilies of the first distinc tion. The Sitting-rooms and Sleeping Apartments are nu merous and airy ; and the whole arranged with the most scru pulous regard to the comfort and convepitince of those who may honour the Hotel with their patronage. The Stable Department is extensive and very commodious, and the house will be found of easy approach from the London road, on entering the Wells. The Proprietor presumes to hope that the Calverley Hotel will rank as one of the most splendid in her Majesty's dominions, and that by moderate charges and punctual attention he will merit and receive the same encouragement he has for many years enjoyed at the Kentish Royal Hotel. Families canbe accommodated with suites of apartments, and received on Boarding terms. .SPIRIT of the PUBLIC JOURIIALS. (From the Morning Chronicle.) INTERRUPTION OF THE CORN-LAW DEBATE.

When Sir Robert Peel had sat down, Mr. Warburton moved the adjournment of the debate to Monday next. On this Mr. Bradshaw moved as an amendment the adjourn ment of the debate to Monday week. The question put by the Speaker was, that the debate be adjourned ; and on that the House divided : Ayes 129 and two tellers. Noes 225 and two tellers. If the motion had been carried, the next motion would have been that the adjournment of the debate be to Mon day week; which, if carried, would have led to an adjourn ment when the day arrived, until after the holidays. On Wednesday week the adjournment takes place; and it was well known to those who moved the adjturn meta to Monday week that• the house would sieee:.- sarily be occupied with important bills from the Lords. Under these circumstances, with so large a majority against the supporters of the motion, Mr. Warburton moved that the House do now adjourn, in order to avoid a division on the main question with so many supporters of the motion absent, it having been understood that no di. vision was to take place. The motion has become a chopped order, and will be resumed another day where it lett off. We cannot sufficiently reprobate the trick thus attempted to be played off by Mr. Canterbury Bradshaw, with the view of making himself of importance. The debate. on a question like that of the Corn-laws is not to be got rid of by trick or evasion. We know no more effectual mode of creating angry feelings than a course of proceeding which amounts to a declaration that the House will not listen to argument. To adjourn the debate to a day when it must have been either abruptly closed or adjourned over the holidays, might have put the delegates from the manufac turing districts to inconvenience and expense; and if that were the object of those who wished to adjourn the debate to Monday week, few will envy them the satisfaction to be derived from the success of such a paltry scheme. No ; the Corn-law question is not to be so easily got rid of. Corn-law repeal shall again and again be dinned into the ears of our taskmasters, and we trust the issue to an over-ruling Providence. • (From the Morning Post ) Of all those Members of Parliament who have spoken against the existing Corn-laws, Lord Morpeth appear:, to be the one whose feelings and motives upon the Subject are the most respectable. Ills sincerity we think unques tionable, and his object a lauslable one; but he evident!) , has taken but a very superficial view of the subject of agricultural protection, and has jumped to conclusions in stead of pursuing the train of reasoning, without which conclusions so important ought not to be adopted. Lord Morpeth finds by the petitions which have been entrusted to him, and perhaps by his own observation also, that in certain parts of Yorkshire bread is very dear, and trade very bad. .Hasing possessed himself of this fact, he infers that it is a duty not only of human policy, but of religion and mordlity, to repeal the Corn•laws. We submit to the consideration of his Lordship that the infe rence is scarcely warranted, and that it would be worth his while to try to establish the connection between the existing Corn-laws and the distress which he so properly feels for ; and also to revolve in his mind how the opening of the ports to the reception of foreign corn would remove that distress. (From the Morning Herald.) The speech cf Sir Robert Peel last night was, in short, very able, and, as far as it went, very complete. We ven ture, however, to think that he conceded a great deal too much to the Anti-Corn-law agitators. when he spoke of manufactures " as the main-spring of our prosperity." We utterly deny the truth of the assumption. The rimnufac tures of Great Britain are utterly insignificant when weighed against our vast agricultural interests; and valua ble as may be our home and our colonial trades, the real worth of our foreign trade, with the pretensions of which alone do our Corn-laws interfere—the value, we repeat, of our foreign trade is exceedingly questionable. It might not, perhaps, be difficult to prove that England has lost more by her foreign trade than she has ever gained by it. SPORTING INTELLIGENCE. " BRISTOL, APRIL 3. " The Great Western arrived here this morning, at four o'clock, after a passage Of.somewhat more than 14 days. She brings news to the 19th of March. The Bri t:.sh Queen arrived out on the 16th." The Great Western arrived at New Yak on the 7th of March, after a voyage of only 16 days, the precise tim e taken by the British Queen to make the passage. 'the ime latter vessel carried out news from this country to Ame rica 11 days later than the preceding packet , and the Great Western news 43 days later—she carried out the accounts of the marriage of the Queen with Prince Albert, which the New York Papers give at considerable length. Commercial business seems to have undergone no ma terial change since the last accounts, and the aspect of affairs altogether was favourable, though there are still ganeral complaints of the want of trade. The Great Western, as might have been expected, was looked for at New York with great anxiety. At her departure the operations in Foreign Exchanges were not extensive. The cause attributed for this in the New York Pupers is the ex pected early departure of the British Queen. At New done at 74, and at Philadelphia on the 17th, at 78 1 , York, on the 18th, the United States Bank Sha res were and Gerards at 341 The intelligence from Canada is destitute of interest. The news from South America is snore important, as it appears from the Buenos Ayres papers that actions had taken place on the 13th and 16th of November, in which the partizans of I,avalle and the French had been defeated by the troops under General Lopez. Copious extracts are given in these papers of the public rejoicings, in consequence of the discovery and suppres sion of plots against .Rosas, of the honours paid to the Governor -in-Chief, and of the indignation displayed egainst the French and those leaped with them. The 7th of Decemlier was tlooth day of the French hlo,shade„ The republic of Peru was quidt:',-ard the U2ngress busy in forming a new Constitution. In Bolivia the expected revolution in favour of Santa Cs uz had broken out, and that personage had left Guaya quil to take advantage of it. Later advices from Rio Janeiro state that negotiations had commenced between the French Admiral Dupontet and the Government of Buenos Ayres, and that the former had refused the proffered mediation of the British Minister. The Great Western has brought over fifty passengers. ( From the New York Morning Courier and Inquirer 01 March 19.)

There had been no demand for foreign export, but some purchases have been made for the Eastern States of Western at 5 371, 5 50, and 5 62} dollars; Ohio Canal is held at 5 50 dollars, but no sales. Ohio, via New Orleans, is bought in small lots at 525 dollars. George-town and Howard-street at 5 25 dollars to 5 37:1 dollars, and Alexandria at 5 25 dollars. Some sales of cotton have been made since the 7th in stant at a decline of c. per lb. The better qualities arc scarce and have brought comparatively higher prices than inferior. Uplands, middling have sold at 61 to .81 c. fair to good and fair and goad 9 to 91 and n per lb. ; Alaba mas 6i to l ; Louisiana 21 1 ,- 11 to 111.

THE BOUNDARY QUESTION. (From the New Yorh Enquirer of March 11.) Washington, March 9, 1840. In the Senate to-day, a message was received and read, +roil, the President of the United States, inclosing a fur ther correspondence wi th Mr., F ox, the B r i t i s h Minister Ple nipotentiary. In the progress of thi s correspon dence, a question of veracity, or rather of accuracy , h as arisen between Mr. Fox and Governor Fairfield, in addition to the operations on the frontier, within that district of coun try occupied by the British forces, and in which the Go vernor re-asserts that the military force has been increased, which statement is contradicted by Mr. Fox. The British Minister, however, closes his lett er , b y say i ng, t h at if the state of Maine persists in the course of policy she appears to have adopted, the period is not far distant when it will become necessary for her Majesty's Government to adopt measures of defence.

At the Duke of Beaufort 's magnificent seat at Badminton, yesterday, there was one of the most splendid meets that the oldest sportsmen in the county ever remember ; th e sport being purposely arranged for the enjoyment of his Serene Highness Prince Ernest of Saxe Coburg and Gotha, who, how ever, was unable to avail himself of it, being laid up with au at tack of influe nz a. The company, which included a large num ber of Nobility and Gentry, amounted to nearly sixteen in number. The meet took place on the lawn, and the throw off at a short distance. Reynard supplied admirable sport, and. after a spl en did run , was killed near Acton rl•urville.—_Bath Herald. The undersigned has the honour to report that, in ac cordance with your commission of the 6th instant, he pro ceeded immediately to the St. John's river, Temiscouta Lake, &c., and ascertained by actual observation the fol lowing facts : That 22 miles below the mouth of Fish River, on the south side of St. John's, and nearly opposite the Mada waska River, a house has been fitted up for barracks, and is rented by the British Government for that purpose, though no troops are there at present. It is built of hewn tim ber, two stories high, about 60 feet long and 30 wide. It has bunks prepared for over 100 men. It is now in charge of one man only. From thence he followed up the Mada waska River, observing the tow path on its east bank, which has been made and repaired by the English Govern ment, under contracts given out by James A. M`Lauchlan, Esq., of New Brunswick, the gentleman who has hereto fore assumed to act as Warden of the disputed territory. 't his work was accomplished the past season ; the t.ength corresponds withhathuat 2G fmtlitles the east side of the Madawaska River, Two miles and a half below the foot of the Temiscouta Lake, on the west bank of the Madawaska River, the Eng lish erected, early last summer, a barrack, about 80 feet long and 30 wide, and two small out-buildings. At this post there are now stationed one serjcant, one corporal, and Live private soldiers of company No. 3, 11th regiment in the English service, where they have been from about the Ist of January last. Near this point commences a road, connecting it with the English works next described, built the past season under contracts given out by the said Al‘Laughlaa, for the distance of 16 stiles, 10's5f whiSth are fully essizoleted, and the remaining six nearly. That 15 miles from the foot of Temiscouta Lake, on its west side, the English have erected eight buildings as barracks for soldiers, officers' quarters, a hospital, a magazine, a storehouse, and a cern - missary's house, all of which are surrounded by ditches, breastworks, and stockades, on three sides ; the fourth is not fully completed. An accurate plan of all these works accompanies this report, and is here particularly referred to. From Major Chatnbri, the commander of this fort, who was first informed of the object and case of the in quiries, and from his officers, the following facts were as certained. That he was there stationed by the Govern meet of the Canadas, under his command, one company of the grenadier soldiers, numbering about 85 men, of the 11th regiment, and one light company, the third of same regiment, numbering about 90 men, in all 175, not in cluding officers commissioned, or servants. The names of the officers are Major Chambri, Captain Wallington, Lieutenants Bloss and Gould, and Ensign Tolun. That the barracks were commenced last spring, and were sta tioned here in June last, comprising a sergeant, corporal, and:ten men of the 24th regiment; and in November fol lowing said company of grenadiers were ordered to take their place, and that about the Ist of January last they were reinforced by said third company. That the road from these barracks to river D :s Loup has been made and repaired the past season, distant about 3ti miles. In addition, the undersigned ascertained that the Eng lish have built, at Lake Temiscouta, a number of large fLe bottom boats, and also of keel boats, each of which %%ill serve to carry 50 men, and the flat-bottom boats would carry safely heavy ordnance. Outside the defences the English have a boat and store-house. The works at this fort are calculated to be a sure de fence against artillery and light arms, as will more fully a ppear from plan annexed. All of which is most respectfully submitted.

(Attest) PHILIP C. JOHNSON, Secretary of State. _ MR. FORSYTH TO MR. FOX. Department of State, Washington, March 6. By the directions of the President, the undersigned, Se cretary of State of the United States, communicates to Mr. Fox, Envoy Extraordinary and Minister Plenipoten tiary of Great Britain, the enclosed copy of a report made to the Governor of the State of Maine, by the agent cum missioned on the part of the authorities of the State, to ascertain the precise character and extent of the occupation of parts of the disputed territory by troops of her Britannic Majesty, and of the buildings and other public works con structed for their use and accommodation. By that report, and :no three depositions which the un dersigned infornially communicated to Mr. Fox a few days since, he will perceive that there must be some extraordinary misapprehension on his part of the facts in relation to the occupation by British troops of portions of the disputed ter. ritory. The statements contained in these documents, and ...thatAixelLkAr.....k4..in we of, the 20th J anuarylast, exhibited a striking discrepancy as to the numbeit — Of troops now in the territory, as . compared with those who were in it when the arrangement between Governor Fairfield and Lieutenant-Governor Harvey was agreed upon; and also as to the present and former state of the buildings there. The extensive accommodations propared and pre paring at an old and at new stations, the works finished, and in the course of construction, on the land and on the water, are not in harmony with the assurance the only ob ject is the preservation of a few unimportant buildings and storehouses for the temporary protection of the number of troops her Majesty's ordinary service can require to pass on the road from New Brunswick to Canada. i The undersigned will abstain from any remarks upon these contradictory statements, until Mr. Fox shall have an opportunity to obtain the !Titans fully explaining them. How essential it is that this should be promptly dune, and that the steps necessary to a faithful observance on the part of her Majesty's colonial authorities of the existing agreements between the two Governments should be immediately taken, Mr. Fox cannot fail fully to under. stand. The undersigned avails himself of the occasion to renew to Mr. Fox assurances of his high consideration. JOHN FORSYTH. MR. FOX TO MR. FORSYTH. Washington, March 7, 1840.

It would be difficult to adduce stronger evidence of the acts on the one side being those of aggression, and on the other of defence. The fact, shortly, is. and this is the essential point of the argnment, that her Majesty's authorities have not as yet altered their state of preparation, or strengthened her mili tary means within the disputed territory, with a view to settling the question of boundary, although the attitud e assumed by the State of Mainc, with reference to that question, would be a clear justiication of such measures ; and it is much to be apprehended that the adoption of such measures will sooner or later become indispensable, if the people of Maine be not compelled to desist from the ex tensive system of armed aggression which they are con tinuing to carry on, in other parts of the same disputed territory. The undersigned avails himself of this occasion to re new to the Secretary of State of the United States the assurance of his distinguished consideration. H. S. FOX. INCREASE OF THE STATE DEBT.

PHILADELPHIA, MARCH ii, FIVE O'CLOCK, P.M. DEATH OF EX-GOVERNOR WOLF. Our citizens were this morning quite shocked with the sudden death of ex-Governor Wolf, who you will recollect has been for the past four years collector of the port of Philadelphia.

He was laid upon a sofa and conveyed into the custom-house, where he died in a few minutes. The following is en extract from the Log-Book of the GreAt Western : REMARKS.

FAILURE OF THE RUSSIAN EX PEDITION AGAINST KHIVA. We stated on Monday that disastrous accounts had been received of the expedition against Khiva, which are fully confirmed by the following extracts from German Papers, received last night : _ -atom thfv-I k daig 1 1 / 4 24(e...) . 13ERus, ~;,--A"- c ibiaing to accounts 'retified from St Petersburg the much talked of Russian expedition against Khiva has totally failed. The troops had not seen an enemy, except in the skirmishes, which have already been mentioned, but notwithstanding the extreme haste with which this expedition was prepared and directed it was impossible to withstand the inclemency of the climate. Storms and snow prevail in such a degree that even the camp in which General Perowsky had taken refuge to wait for a change in the weather, was not tenable, and the whole ex pedition was obliged to be given up. Whether the troops have suffered any and what loss is not known; but it is certain that the greater part of the camels on which the expedition depended, have perished in the snow and the The General-in-Chief has required 1,000 camels to be sent in all haste from Onerburg, in order to convey the sick and the baggage, and even the corps itself, back to that town. HAMBURG, MARCH 31.—The letters which were men tioned yesterday speak of the loss of all the camels, and add that General Perowsky had committed suicide. If many political apprehensions are removed by this event, geographers will be disappointed in their hopes of obtain ing some information respecting the imperfectly-known countries of Central Asia. MONEY MARKET and CITY NEWS. (FRIDAY EVENING.) TIMES.—The stagnation of busines in the English Stock Market has been so great that there was not a single transaction in Consols for the Account until after two o'clock. The oldest jobbers declare that they do not re member such an event to have occurred before. There have been, however, some transactions for money as a change of investment into Exchequer bills, and hence it would seem as if there sas ; distrust in the public as to the prospects of the Consol Market. Both classes of se curities are firm, while in the unfunded debt there ha.: been a considerable rise. The closing quotations arc 9O to = for Money, and 90,- buyers for the Account. Exche quer bills arc Els. to 235. prem. Money is easy, and even abundant. In Shares there - was ' ; - iioOd deal of business done this afternoon, and prices were all better. The Great Western realized 5, the BirMingliam b. nd London 67. New Shares 20, the Manchester and Leeds 12i, and the New North Midland Sk premium. The Brighton were at 101, and the Greenwich at 11discount. SUN.—It was reported in the City this afternoon, that the London Gazette, published in the evening, would contain a declaration of war against China, and this caused a good deal of activity in the Tea Market, and a rise of about 2d. per lb. The Hamburgh mail, which arrived this afternoon with letters and papers of Tuesday, brings the Exchange on London steady at 13 5, and Gold at 4301. In ad dition to this, they contain advices from Berlin of the 27th ult., confirming tho failure of the Russian expe dition to Chive, noticed several days since in the Even ing Edition of The Sun. Late in the evening, and long after business in the City had been brought to a close, and the merchants had left, advices were received, by express, from Bris tol, communicating the fact of the arrival of the Great Western-steamer this morning, at 4 o'clock. She brings papers from New York, of the 19th ult., which announce the safe arrival out of the British Queen, on the 18th ult. United States Bank Shares on the 19th ult., were at 74 ; and the Exchange on London was at 8 to 8. Flour was 25 cents per barrel lower, and Cotton - had declined half a cent per pound. The Banking Specie Payment Bill was not expected to pass the Pennvlvania Legislature. As we have not had an o pportunity of seeing any private . l . etters we arc unable to notice precisely the true posaton of commercial affairs in the Union. On the whole, how ever, we believe there was no particular alteration. An important correspondence bad taken place between the British Minister at Washington and the United States Secretary of State, relative to aggressions on the dis puted territory, ample details of which will be found in another part of our paper. Accounts from Buenos Ayres of the 30th November, notice the defeat of some partisans of Lavall and the French, by. General Lopez. We have noo , ing of importance from Canada. The Foreign Exchanges were heavy this afternoon. Th e re was again a demand for bili s , an d l ower rates were paid, viz., on Paris 25 50 to 52 2 , on Ha m b urg h 13 9 to and on Amsterd am , 12 IJ, The Funds left off firmly, Consols for Money at 90i and for Tim e a t 90 7 -,- 7 91. Exch e q uer Bills sup ' sup ported the advance to 235. premium. There was a decli ne i n Spanish Stock after the mid dle of the day, and the Market closed rather heavily at 27i for the Active Bonds, and 14 for the Deferred. Colombian dropped to 25, but Brazil rose to 76. The other Bonds were about the same as in the morning. The Earl of Chesterfield left Chesterfield House yesterday afternoon for Brighton, to join the Countess of Ches terfield and family.

O'CONNELL—AGITATION.--The Hon. and Learned Member for Dublin, iu a letter dated the 30th ult., addressed to the conductor of the Pilot, writes—" My plan. is, to go over to Ireland early in Holy Week, to assist in the mean time in organising every parish in Ireland. The' north is a,:v always ready for legal agitation. The rest of Ireland easily wake into exertion. Stanley's Bill is in fact a 13: to take away from the Catholic people of Ireland, and from t 5 humbler classes of Protestants and Presbyterians, all parteio, tion in the franchise." The Pilot says, " The exasperat,ou and determined spirit evoked throughout this country by Stanley's Bill, has roused Kerry ; and we expect confident': to receive similar proofs of public feeling from all parts of lr land before one week will have passed."
