I Thursday 3 3 6 331 14 9 (From the Dublin Evening Mail.) Since the rather of Repeal has Delahunted the question itself, it can be no blame to us if we Burke the caput mor tuum of its proceedings. At home the agitation is defunct ; and if in transatlantic regions it still shows symptoms of vi tality, it is only because the morbidity prevailing at head quarters has not vet had time to reach the extremities. At the meeting on Friday last in the Corn-Exchange—whilst the exchequer was a blank as to Irish sympathy, the Ame rican sympathy poured in abundantly in the shape of £4O from " The Young Men's Repeal Association" (making, with preceding contributions, a sum of £110)—of £4O from the Repeal Association of Utica ; and from Louisville the munificent contingent of 250 dollars. The nature of the sympathy, and of the services of which it is the bounty money and hire, may be clearly collected from the speech of the head Repealer for Ulster : " Some time ago (said the gentleman), amongst the Ame rican newspapers sent me, was one with the report of the proceedings of a' pithlic meeting of the friends of Ireland, at which Mr. Mooney attended, and made an admirable - speech in the pure spirit of an O'Connellite, deprecating physical violence, and relying on the effect of moral, peaceful agita tion. An American gentleman who followed him k Counsellor Smith) declared, that he had listened to his eloquent address with great pleasure, and that he fully assented to every sen timent to which be gave utterance, eAcept one.. Counsellor Smith declared that the point on which he differed from Mr. Mooney was this—that Mr. Mooney declared his faith in the power of moral suasion ; but he (Counsellor Smith) had no faith in the case in moral suasion ; that, in his opinion, justice was to be wrung forth from the blood-stained hand of England only by ' gunpowder suasion and American sua sion ;' and this was hailed by the assembly with peals of ap- Mr. SMYTHE defended the policy of the measure proposed by Sir R. Peel, and said he was glad to see the principle of undue protection crumbling into dust. The question of the corn laws had been properly dealt with by only only four British Ministers—Lord North, in 1773; Mr. Canning, in his unsuccessful measure of 1827; the noble lord (Lord J. Russel,) in his measure of last year; and by the right hon. baronet, in the measure before the house, which he thought superior to any of them. He urged the right hon. baronet to proceed iu the course in which he had embarked, and to earn for his reward the prayers and blessings of a relieved and grateful population. Mr. MacAyeAv said he feared, in the course he meant to pursue, he would differ from a large portion of his consti tuents ; but he could not consistently support the motion of the hon. member for Wolverhampton, because of the intro duction of the word "now." He could not acquiesce in the principle laid down by the right hon. baronet (Sir R. Peel,) that the cheapness of food was not necessarily an advantage to a people. The principle might be true if wages fell with the price of food ; but those two things were independent of each other, as was proved by the fact that on the banks of the Ohio the price of food was twice as cheap as in England, while wages were twice as high. The right hon. gentleman then contended against the motion that our political depend ence would be endangered by a dependence on foreign nations for our supply of gram, as was evinced by the fact that we imported 1,600,000 quarters of foreign corn in 1810, the greatest quantity ever imported in one year, and one-half of that quantity was from France, with which country we were at war; the continental system being then in its fullest force, and we believe that not one single quarter of it was supplied from America. It was of. great importance that this ques tion should be settled • but from the arguments ori the other side, it seemed as if settled; was but a first step in the way of abolition. The right hon. baronet at the head of the Home Department disclaimed anything like finality in legislation, and other hon. gentlemen on his side of the house spoke of it as a considerable first step in the way of concession, though, in his opinion, it scarcely gave one farthing in the pound. With respect to a fixed duty, he looked upon it as a compromise, and was willing to take it on the principle that he would refuse nothing in the shape of improvement : but in principle he was opposed to any duties levied upon corn, for the purpose of protection alone. Mr. S. WORTLEY denied that Sir R. Peel had ever laid down the principle that cheapness of food was not at all times a blessing_to the people, though he had said that the cheapness of food was not always a,proof of the prosperity of a people. He then proceeded at some length to advocate the proposed measure of the government. .. Mr. MITCHELL did not prefer.the proposed scale of duties to a fixed duty, but viewing it as a great improvement, and seeing no chance of a better, he was willing to give it a trial. Mr. C. BilLtuwt opposed the motion of the hon. member for Wolverhampton, on the p•round that vested interests had grown up under our protective tariffs which they had no right to rashly sacrifice, however true abstractedly might be the principle upon which it. was proposed to do so ; and sa crifice those interests they certainly would if they suddenly abrogated all those protective duties. The hon..alember then advocated the principle of &fixed duty in preference to the sliding scale proposed by the government. He admitted, however, that the latter measure would do a great deal of good, but it would not give a steady supply of corn, which was the great desideratum to :be held in view, in order to give an impulse to the manufactures of the country. Mr. HOPE attributed the distress of the country to over production, and unless hon. gentlemen on the other side could show that over-production did not exist, all their argu ments against the corn-laws fell to the ground. Mr. Rica must oppose the motion of the hon. member for Wolverhampton, though he was anxious to extend the principles of a free trade in corn as far as they could be ex tended with safety. He was in favour of a fixed duty, and regretted the motion of last session was not agreed to. Mr. MILNES felt for the situation of Mr. Villiers, melan choly as it must be when he saw friend after friend dropping from his side ; the boldest openly opposing him ; the timid refusing to vote at all; and thought he must by this time be convinced of the impolicy of interrupting the discussion be fore the house by the intrusion of an abstract question upon which he could find but few to support him. The hon. member contended for the right of the landholder to protec tion, and said he would oppose the motion of the hon. mem ber for Wolverhampton. It was by the protection that the landholders received that they were enabled to pay the fund holder twenty shillings for the thirteen or fifteen he had ad vanced ; and if the landowner were not able to sustain that duty he must fall, and in that fall would be sure to drag down the fundholder with him. He could have wished, however, that the scale proposed by Sir R. Peel had been more liberal, for he did not feel quite sure that his scale would produce the effect he aimed at, of keeping the price of corn as nearly as possible between 545. and 58s. Mr. WAXLEY said there was scarcely a child that could walk, or a man who earned two shillings a day, that did not understand this question. It was only in that house that it admitted of mystification. He wished to know what they meant in that house by protection to agriculture. Did,they mean protection to themselves in the possession of their houses, their parks, their herds of deer, and their hounds ; or did they mean protection to the labourer of his 7s. a week ? They were carrying their system of protection to such an ex tent as to render insecure all the institutions of the country. The whig minister of last year proposed to raise the revenue by reducing taxation, whereas the right hon. baronet pro posed to retain the duty on corn. What did the people gain by that? He freely admitted that the right hot,. baronet's proposition was better than the existing I , w, but it was not calculated to lower materially the price of corn, and would not therefore give any real relief. The corn law was the master infamy of the world—the landlord's curse upon the poor man's industry. There was, however, in his opinion, no hope of relief for the people unless by a reform of the Re form Act, so that the working classes might be represented in that house. Mr. Musa z said be should vote for the motion of Mr. Villiers, although he did not think the abolition of the corn laws would produce all the benefits to the country which many people imagined. He could not, however, justify the proposed measure, and that was his only ground for sup porting the motion for total abolition. The hon. member then contended that the corn and currency questions were so connected that they could not be advantageously discussed separately, and quoted a similar opinion expressed in a pamphlet written by Sir James Graham. Mr. S. CRAWFORD moved the, adjournment of the debate, which was immediately agreed to. HOUSE OF COMMONS.—WEDNESDAY. A discussion took• place. on the motion of Mr. R. WAsoN, respecting the Ipswich election, the hon. member being of opinion that as Sir Thomas Cochrane was about to leave the kingdom, and as he was supposed to be able to give important evidence upon the Ipswich election petition, he should be examined at the bar of the house. This was opposed by the Attorney-General as unprecedented. The Court of Queen's Bench had no such power with a witness under supcena. If that witness chose to quit the kingdom he did so at his peril. The motion was ultimately withdrawn. In answer to a question from Mr. MACKINNON, Sir R. PEEL said it was his intention to proceed with no public business till the corn-law resolutions were disposed of. There was the strongest feeling at present among those inte rested in the corn trade against any delay in the settlement of the question. But he was not responsible for it. tie could not interfere with the course which other hon. gentle men thought fit, to pursue ; but he thought it of so much im portance to bring in his bill on the subject that he would interpose no impediment by bringing forward any public business before these resolutions were decided on. Colonel RAWSON asked when the bill relative to marriages in Ireland would be brought in, as the Presbyterians would be alarmed on hearing that no public business would be pro ceeded with till these questions were settled? Sir R. PEEL said that, as so many persons were in danger of being declared illegitimate, every facility should be af forded to carrying that bill through with as little delay as Eridano, for Genoa, has put back.

It is quite unnecessary to analyse the speeches of the Lord Mayor of Dublin on the occasion; our readers have them by heart. The only thing like novelty is the admission that, for the present at least, ministers were not doing Ireland " any actual or intended harm ;" and the only thing having the shadow of importance, the confession, that, till he can have a roll of five millions of repeaters, and a farthing a week from each of them, he may just as well throw his bon net at the moon as attempt to disturb the legislative union. Five millions of farthings ! Why the receipts of last week show there are not three men hi Ireland that care one far thing about it. possible. The adjourned debate was resumed by Mr. EwAItT, who regretted that Sir R. Peel had not dealt as boldly with the corn-law question as he had done with the catholic emancipa tion. He supported the motion of Mr. Villiers, as did also Mr. H. F. Berkeley, who was of opinion that trade in corn should be left quite unshackled. Mr. THORNELY was of opinion that any duty on corn should be for the purpose of revenue only, and not of protec tion. . . Mr. HASTIE also supported the motion. Mr. O'CONNELL, in supporting the motion, said the house would not entrust legislation upon this subject to radicals and chartists ; and, upon the same principle, when he saw landed proprietors thus legislating, he could not help thinking that the poor were upon their trial before a partial judge and a packed jury. Colonel CONOLLY, in opposing the motion, said they had beard much of the benefit which would be conferred upon the vast regions of America if the corn-laws were repealed; but he thought they should not exhaust all their sympathy on America, they should keep a small portion for our own agricultural population. Had there been anything like the indignation against the proposed measure which some hon. gentlemen appeared to think there was, it would ere this have exhibited itself in a way not to be mistaken. He be lieved, however, that the country was satisfied with the measure. Mr. H AWES, in supporting the motion, said that all the old monopolists, and all the foreign merchants, would be glad to have the present system maintained, as it enabled them to indulge in most profitable speculations. He was of opinion that under the proposed measure coin would never be lower than 60s, and that its general range would be about there. Demerara at the latest date was in an unsettled state owing to the endeavour of the planters to force the labourers into submission as regards certain rules and regulations which they had issued for the better working of the estates, and which they desired should take effect from the first day of the new year. These rules and regulations, the result of several meetings of the planters, were framed to reduce the price of labour in proportion to the market price of produce, but without the ordinary course of having first consulted the labourers, or their " headsmen," as the chief among them are technically termed, and this is the great point in which the planters appear to have erred. The labourers seem to have been but little aware that any new rules or regulations would be attempted to be introduced for the present in the estates, although they well knew that complaints were made by the managers of the small profits resulting from the work ing of the plantations at the current price of labour, and they, therefore, were greatly surprised to find, as if by a si multaneous movement, the various localities placarded with these new regulations, which in several cases imposed severe restrictions, besides the lowering of wages. Among these were the refusal of employers to allow labourers to keep stock of any description, the reversion of pro visions they cultivated on estates to the original pro prietors, when they left or were discharged, and an in crease in the period of the day's labour, with a notice attached to the effect, that forty-eight hours' servitude after this publication would be taken as the act of consent by the labourer to be bound by them. Hence followed a general " strike," and from the Ist of January up to the Bth, most of the plantations were abandoned by the labour ers, who having had interviews with the Governor on the attempted enforcement of these rules, refused to return to their occupation without concessions were made. The Por tuguese emigrants alone remained passive and obedient to the will of the planter. In consequence of this new feature in the state of affairs, the local press were arduously advo cating the cause of their respective 'patrons, and while the planters' organ, the Guiana Times, is sedulously recom mending the maintenance of firmness and perseverance in the enforcement of the new rules and regulations, the Gui ana Chronicle urges the necessity of conciliation and tem perance by the planters towards the labourers, who are said to be much disposed to meet their employers in a fair and equitable reduction, in order to bring matters to a satisfac tory conclusion. This resistance by the 'labourers at the present peliod appears to be unfortunate, as the crop was in a forward and, promising condition. At Trinidad there had also been a reduction in wages, accompanied by the abdlition of allowances, but the manner in which it had been effected was by the introduction of the alteration to the immediate notice of the labouring popula tion, who were made acquainted with the fact of the neces sity of such a proceeding, and who, having readily agreed to it, were working with a promptitude scarcely to be expected from their altered circumstances. The canes for the ensuing crop were loOlting exceedingly well, but the past month had been unusally dry, which was not considered to be conducive to the health and vigour of the young plants. The Legislature was sitting, but the business was merely of local interest. At Barbadoes and at Antigua there also had been:experi enced a want of rain, but on the whole the prospects of the crops were promising. A meeting of the Barbadian mer chants had taken place for the twofold object of petitioning the Legislature to reduce the expenditure of the island by the partial disbandment of the militia and the police, and to effect thereby the imposition of a smaller duty on all articles imported. From the whole of the islands complaints are made of the dull state of trade, but the sympathizing effect of the same state of things existing throughout the continent of Europe does much to allay the fears the colonists would otherwise entertain. The Royal mail line of packets pro mised great advantages to these several localities in the transmission of merchandise and correspondence. 61s. Mr. MARK PHILIPS said he had always regarded the trade in corn as such a gambling speculation under the existing law, that while he was in trade he never shipped a cargo of goods upon the prospect of getting a cargo of corn in return. He contended that the people, by the petitions which they had presented, had proved themselves anxious for a total re peal of the corn laws. His own idea was, that it would be well to have a duty on corn, annually diminishing in amount until it vanished altogether. Sir R. PEEL said that all that had failed from Mr. Philips had proved the correctness of what he had originally stated to the house, that there were various causes, independent of the corn laws' operation, to produce the distress which prevailed through the country. The hon. member had said that there had been a great decrease in the exports to the United States since 1833, and yet, although the corn laws were in opera tion, there had been no decrease in the exports from the cot ton manufactories in the north. How did the hon. member account for that consistently with the supposition that the corn laws were the cause of the distress ? It appeared, from Mr. Horner's report, that there had been ninety-three new mills erected in his district. Now, he could understand the manufacturers going on working the old mills at a loss in the hope of a change ; but if the business was so very slack, it was difficult to account for the erection of so many new mills. From all this, he would ask if it was not evi dent that the effect of the corn laws in producing the dis tress had been greatly exaggerated? And indeed it also appeared that no great relief was to be expected from any change whatever which the house might make in those laws. While he admitted and deplored the distress which prevailed, and even though the people might burn his effigy, still could he not abate one particle of the sympathy he felt for the poor of the country, or of his earnest wish that they might be relieved. (Cheers.) The right hon. baronet then proceeded to contend that concurrently with great demand for employ ment in the manufacturing districts it frequently happened that partial distress was very prevalent in other parts of the country. With respect to the argument that foreign corn should be taxed for purposes of revenue only, he doubted if it was legitimate to tax it for the purposes of revenue at all, or if it were he could not conceive an argument by which they could resist a similar tax on home-grown corn. If he could only impress the house with the communications which be had received from various parts of the country, with re spect to his proposition, they would see it was as far as he could go without producing alarm, calculated to lead to dis. astrous consequences. Mr. JOHNSTONE moved, and Sir J. EASTHOPE seconded another adjournment of the debate. Lord J. RUSSELL objected to Sir R. Peel's demand for speedy legislation. The question was one for Parliament to deliberate upon • they, and not the ministers were to decide the question. Was the house to pass in a hurry a measure which ministers had taken so many months to consider? The manufacturers were bound to ponder it well; and the agriculturists, who had given way, would expect that it should be so well digested as to be permanent when once passed. He added a few words in vindication of Mr. Macaulay's withdrawal from this division. It was only what the conservative peers had thought it their duty to do upon the reform bill. After a few words from Sir R. PEEL, Sir C. NAPIER questioned the practicability of bringing hither a cargo of American wheat within six weeks. The cry for a division then became loud and general, but the opposition held out for a still further prolongation of the debate, and it was accordingly adjourned. HOUSE OF COMMONS.—TUESDAY. Mr. SEI ARMAN CRAWFORD began the adjourned debate ; by a speech for the repeal of all the duty on corn. He was resolved to take every constitutional means of agitating the question out of the house as well as in it. Mr. WYKEHAM MARTIN showed by detailed calculations, that the landholder pays a very much larger contribution than the fundholder to various levies, particularly to the poor's rate and to the highway-rate. Mr. VILLIERS (Sudbury),was understood to deny that the landholders bear more than their share of public burdens. Sir C. BURRELL insisted on the superior importance of the home trade as compared with the foreign. He had his doubts on the sufficiency of Sir R. Peel's protection, which, how ever, under the circumstances connected with it, he meant to support. Mr. POWELL urged the necessity of doing something for a population which would he otherwise ungovernable. Lord GRANBY expressed his deep sympathy with the ex isting distress, and his apprehension that by a repeal of duty that distress would be increased ; for such a measure would bde4narrowre duction wn the home-market, while the increased cheapness of bo e u f l d w a p g r e o s p . ab l s y i r be ß. n p eu ee tr l, al s i e se le d n b g proportionate continue.re to keep B r it a i n d epen d ent on h er own efforts, as h no thing to dre a d fr om foreigners. would hla have Mr. M. J. O'CosNuwa; much disappointed that the government measure did so little, especially after so much time had been taken for deliberation. Ile had heard nothing to satisfy him that a fixed duty was not better than a sliding scale ; and he did not believe that speculation would be R . materiallypthcahteeektieide filed y de t t h y e , new if a sll p e e a ar n e . m The ed i o n b t s i e m r observation ifostci scarcity, f Sir te could eo never nllaw b s e t hre-impo sed, advanced 11 .fin i xi e jeuds e li a . g uc t e le o rs f , stronger ti argument against th la e y se or la c w le s - . cle rical ; for it was an admission of the Thouli he should have preferred a yewletnotaptloattia,lareed peal, he preferred a total repeal to the government h p e e i r a s l uaded would support Mr. Villiers's motion. g that agriculture would flourish, best without artificial sup port. Sir F. BußnErr complained that Mr. Viwzas, though his manner was smooth and gentlemanlike, had been moat acrimonious in his doctrines, especially when he invidiously pointed out that the landed proprietors were a small body of only about 30,000, oppressing 400,000 of their countrymen. The evils of the existing Corn Laws had been greatly exag gerated; but Sir R. Peel's proposal had the advantage of removing what was most unpopular in their composition, without destroying what was really useful in their practical operation. Cheap corn would not improve the condition of the labourer: his state was never better than during the high prices of the war, when corn was sometimes at 120 s. or even 130 s. a quarter. Even now our agricultural population would be well off were it not for the n flux of poor from Ireland. FRENCH OPINIONS UPON Boz.—The following critique is from the per of the noted French critic, M. Jules Janin : •` Amongst the morbid melodramatic tales of the day, which are greedily devoured, but undigested, by the unwashed of all countries, there is a large book by one Charles Dickens, who has written himself into a reputation. ' Nicholas Nic kleby' has been translated here in Paris, by a man of sense and ability, who we regret to see throwing away his time, trouble, and talents into such a common sewer of vice, filth, end iniquity. Imagine a shapeless mass of puerile inven tions, in which the horrible, the idiotic, and the fanatic are wallowing in the mud of an infernal slough of despond, There you see a set of smirking good folks, who have bomeec stupid from excess of goodness, and bore you with their trivial inanities. Next come bounding on, blaspheming in their course, a grisly, fearful band of rogues, robbers, and wretches, whose very existence make you shudder. It is the most nauseous mixture that you could p ossibly imagine of warm milk and sour beer, of fresh eggs and putrid meat, of tattered filthy rags and brocade robes, of sovereigns and halfpence, of roses and dandelions—street -walkers and peers of the realm, porters and poets, ruffians and scholars, walk about arm-in-arm, in the midst of this insupportable cla mour. Do you like the smell of stale tobacco-smoke, of garlic, the taste of onions—do you like steel forks and pew ter-pots ?If your taste leads you to these things, I would conscientiously counsel you to sit down and read Charles Dickens. What a chaos of running sores, loathsome ulcers, and chaste, sacred virtues! This Charles Dickens has ex tracted all the plague spots from Don Guzman d'Alfarache, all the dreams of Sir Charles Grandison, and thickened them up into this unsightly block of descriptions. 0, ye chaste maidens, more or less bashful, who have pored over Walter Scott's beautiful romances !-0, ye more animated admirers of Don Juan' and Lara !'—and 0, ye chaste enthusiasts for ' Clarissa Harlowe !'—hide your blushing cheeks, throw down your veils before Charles Dickens." TRADE AND NAVIGATION.—The net receipt for customs duties in the year ended Jan. 5, 1842, amounted to £23,135,270, being an increase of £ 163,422 over the receipts of 1840. The total number of vessels which entered inwards and cleared outwards in the year ending Jan. 5, 1842 (exclu sive of vessels in ballast and those employed in the coasting trade), amounted respectively to 21,858 and 20,861, the ton nage of the vessels entered inwards being 3,982,129, and that of vessels cleared outwards 3,543,456. The number of vessels employed in the coasting trade of the United Kingdom dur ing the same period was as follows i—viz., en t ere d inwards, 130,402 ; tonnage, 10,876 , 750 and cleared outwards, 143,877 ; tonnage, 11,750,152. 0 ~, 3' ,i.

With shrieks the crew and passengers collected in one solid mass expecting death throughout a tedious nighict. The dreadayi f g ul breakers, and the numerous sharks whh pin around them, threatened alike the swimmer and the boat.
