The Colonial, referring to the above document, says:
In our pocket suniauy of the 4th inst. we expressed the
disappointment which we and, as far as we could learn, our
fellow-c domino generally felt at the Inooscluslas sad unsa-
tisfactory report presented to the House of CUMMINS by Mr.
bullies committee, and which wee only agreed to by a ma-
jority of one. We have now to add to oar recorded opinions
the corroboradve testimony of the majority of oar colonial
legiiletore, as relentnly expressed in the reply to the
goveranee address to the mutt, upon re-assembling
it on Yi idsy last. It will be seen by this document
that British Guiana is neither to be humbugged by
delusive pedal pleading, nor cajoled by a few sott words
into an atesi,doninent of its guataateed and constitutional
liberties and yrivile:es. We have have taken our stand upon
oar rights ; we appal to the ultimate tribunal, the imperial
parliement ; we bring forward in sustairmeut of those rights
the clear and cone:wive testimony of the law, officers of the

From Havana there is no particular 'news of
impottscee. The yellow fever was prevailing. Is
sugars these was an active inquiry for the European
markets, sod prices had further advanced. The de.
mend for Spain had alto revived. For a day or two
before the reamer's sailing the market was more
quiet, but planters were very firm, and some of them
bad wi•horaan fur the present, expecting still
higher rater f.,r the limited proportion of the crop
yet left. The quotations were, for assorted
kinds, 7.11 to 8.12 ; for whites, 28.8 to 29.10
per cwt., free on board ; ditto choice, 32.2 ; yellows,
10.5 to 20.7: ditto choice and superior, 21.0 to

gible condition. Coffee found purchasers in only small
patee.s. Freights were dull. The last transactions
were at 55e. for three small privileged vessels to Cowes

From Bermuda we are informed that the convicts
have been perfeely quiet since the late lamentable
occurrences on bottid the Medway hulk. The anni-
versary. of the °eduction of slavery in the British

an almost unprecedented drought, and had proved very
beneficial to the island.

COMMERCIAL.
(From De Owdora's Mrrearitile Ineellipmeer.)
Kiteocrow, Jule 21.—The *miner of the past week has
been a little more active, owing to Ike vicinity of the August holidays.
But the increased stir is very triding and =lmportant. The low
rates at which all kinds of lien have hewn selling have canard a little
better demand. and we think there is also more activity in the Floor
market. The quantities of Butter sent on lately have been rhi en.
toddy large. We have endeavoured for a long time to impress upon
the minds of shippere.hat this market is not nuts to bear the slightest
abundance of any as =lc. The scarcity of a commodity will not raise
Its out, because the pe,ple arc poor and cannot go atom a certain
mess ak ;
a but the 11110 trifling superfluity will, for the Nlttie Tragllt, de.
press artier, and keep It depressed en long that if it be perishable,
like Butter, It must result in heavy loss. Kati is also in heavy supply,
aa is Soap.
