the bill prospective instead of retrospective, so far as
this clause was concerned.

The SOLICITOR-GENERAL could not accede to
the proposal.
Mr. WALPOLE said he could not allow the injustice
of this clause to pass, and if he stood alone Le would
divide.

After a few words from Mr. MIILLINGS and Mr.
HENLEY,

Dr. PIIILLIMORE appealed to the Solicitor-Gene-
ral to take the clause into his serious consideration, with
a view to its amendment.

AMERICA.

ARRIVAL OF THE CANADA.
LIVERPOOL, JULY 3.
By the Royal Mail steam-ship Canada, Stone cona-
r ander, we have advices from New York to the 21st
and Boston to the 22d ult. She has brought 170 pas-
sengers and $544,000 in specie on freight. On the 26th
at 12 30 a.m. she passed the steamer Africa, hence• for
New York ; on the Ist the ship Conqueror, bound east;
and on the 2d, the ships Continent, Argyll, and Ame-
rica ; and at 11 p.m. the steamer Arabia, hence for New

York.
The steamer Humboldt arrived at New York from
Havre and Cowes on the 21st ult.
The steam-ship Yacht had arrived at New Orleans
witii Rio Grande dates to the 4th ult., and $124,339 in
specie. Unusual quiet prevailed at Brownsville and
other frontier cities. Most of the Filibusters had dis-
persed.
The opening ceremonies at the New York Crystal
Palace are expected to take place on the 15th inst.
Upwards of $2,000 had been subscribed at New Or-
leans for the unfortunate passengers of the ship William
and Mary, wrecked on her passage from Liverpool for
New Orleans.
A new yacht named Silvie, of 105 tons, sailed from
New Rochelle for England on the 18th ult., for the pur-
pose of contending for the prize at the Cowes Regatta
on the 2d of August next. The Silvie was built by Mr.
George Steers, the builder of the America, and is said
to be a much faster sailer than the latter vessel.
A dispatch, dated Washington, the 21st inst., says,
"The firm yet conciliatory representations of Mr. Marcy
have produced a suspension on the part of the English
against the fishing vessels in the disputed waters, and
there is now a clear prospect of a speedy and satisfactory
adjustment of the difficulty."
The coroner's inquest upon the victims of the Gavazzi
riots at Montreal was proceeding, but no new facts had
been elicited.

llavannah advices of the 14th ult. state that large
numbers of slaves still continued to be landed on the
island. The number of slaves imported during the pre-
sent year were, in January, 640 ; February, 803 ; March,
1,820 ; April, 997 ; May, 2,007 ; and June (in 14 days),
2,732. It was rumoured that General Cordova was soon
to supersede General Canedo as Governor of Cuba. The
famous slaver Lady Suffolk had arrived and landed 1,160
slaves on the south coast. She sailed from Africa with
upwards of 1,300 on board, but the vessel was so crowded
that they were glad to throw the sickly and dead over-
board. Upwards of 100 more died while marching from
the place of disembarcation to Julian Zulieta's estate.
Business generally was dull.

Advices from Nassau, N.P., to the 28th of May,
state that a slaver had been captured a few days pre-
vious near Key Sal by one of her Majesty's vessels. A
Spanish slaver had landed a cargo of 600 slaves near
Matanzas.

From the city of Mexico we have advices to the 4th
ult. The death of Senor Alaman, the Minister of
Foreign Affairs, was looked upon as a political calamity.
The salary of the Minister to London had been raised
$15,000 per annum. Private letters state that the
number of persons killed in the late revolt at Vera Cruz
was 70, and the number of wounded 130. Many ar-
rests had been made, but the city was quiet at last ac-
counts. The Mexican foreign Legations had been offi-
cially announced as follows :—London, Senor Lanza.s ;
Paris, Senor Pacheco ; Madrid, Senor Vivo ; Berlin,
General Uraga ' • Rome, Senor Larrainzar ; and Wash-
ington, General Almonte. _ _ _

From Valparaiso we have accounts to the 14th, and
Peru to the 26th of May. The yellow fever was raging
at Lima and Callao. Business along the coast dull,
provisions high, and money scarce. Peru continued to
make preparations for conducting the contemplated war
against Bolivia, though no open declaration had been
made.

York stock market, and most descriptions had declined.
