a Select Committee might be aprointed to inquire into
the matter.—A greed to.
Sir J. GRAHAM, in ans.3er to Mr. KEMBLE, said that
it was his intention to intrcduce a Bill establishing
courts of request all over England.
Some petitions for railway Bills having been pre-
sented, the House adjourned.

The accounts from the United States, brought by the
last packet, though not so hostile and offensive in their
character as those previously received, are still, we
regret to say, by no means satisfactory. Many impor-
tant questions had been brought forward in both
Houses of Congress, lengthened discussions had fol-
lowed, and several divisions also had taken place, but
these divisions decided nothing. All the main points
at issue between England and America remain un-
settled, and:the best news we can communicate simply is,
that Members are taking time to consider, as well as to
obtain additional informition from Europe. This shows
some sense of propriety, and a a ish to deliberate
maturely before involving the country in any hazardous
or rash undertakings. We rejeice that such a disposition
prevails, because it leaves time for reflection ; it
enables the country to weigh the propositions laid before
Congress, and to balance the advantages and disadvan-
tages which may be the consequence of a contest with
Great Britain. We cordially hope that the peace party
will be listened to, and that such able and good men as
WEBSTER and CALHOUN, and others who adept their
policy, and are desirous of the real interest and glory of
their country, will in time stop the rage for new acqui-
sitions, and re-establish the great principles of the con-
stitution so strongly inculcated by WASHINGTON. But,
judging from the votes taken hitherto in Congress, we look
upon this as a task of no ordinary difficulty. The control of
the Executive, and even of :heir national assembly over th e
people; is extremely limited.. Each state is disposed to
judge and act for itself, the people scarcely recognise
any legitimate authority, and all those living on the
borders of independent districts mere rich than their
own, are not scrupulous as to what to covet, and what
they covet they generally make their own, unless re-
strained by powerful neighbours. Texas was acquired
solely because Mexico could not defend her own pro-
perty; California, unless the invacioa be checked by the
interference of European powers, will share the same
fate ; and Canada would be added to the list
but for the determined spirit of its brave inha-
bitants, and the powerful protection of the mother coun-
try. It is easily to be seen, therefore, why such
anxiety is manifested to get rid of European interference,
to debar England and France, and every other power in
every other quarter of the glebe, except America, from
either forming settlements or adopting measures for
their own security, by maintaining a balance of power
among the different independent states. This pretension,
though apparently disowned by Mr. CALHOUN, is evi-
dently a great favourite with him, and he rejects its im-
mediate adoption, simply because the time for action is
not yet come, the " pear is not ripe," America is not
able to contend with Eurcpe ; but when her strength is
consolidated, when she has reached the age of maturity,
and can act boldly, then is the moment to set all the
meddling European powers at defiance. But even this
advocate of peace claims control at present over other states
in the New World than those of the north, and scruples not
to.use most violent language towards the SOVEREIGNS of
Greatßritain and France for protecting the property and
lives of their subjects against the violence of ROSAS.
That we may not be charged with imputing to him
principles which he does not profess, it may be proper
to give' his own words both respecting our interference
in the River Plata, and the reasons why he could not
agree to the motion of Mr. ALLEN. That Member
proposed that Congress should solemnly declare to the
civilised world the unalterable resolution of the United
States to enforce the principle, that any effort of the
Powers of Europe to intermeddle in the social organisa-
tion or political arrangements of the independent na-
tions of America, or establish new colonies, would
incur the prompt resistance of the United States.
" These resolutions," said Mr. CALHOUN, " em-
braced a principle of action which called for
most solemn declarations on the part of the Senate. It
afforded matter for consideration how far this resolution
could be efficiently acted upon, if adopted. No man
could view with stronger feelings of opposition all im-
pertinent interference of the Powers of Europe in the
affairs of this continent than himself. And he
would now take occasion to say, that the late
extraordinary interference of Great Britain and
France in the political domestic relations of Buenos
Ayres, was an outrage unprecedented in its cha-
racter. But the great question here suggested was,
were they now prepared to take this whole continent
under their protection? Had they reached that state of
maturity to admit of this 'wide and exclusive guardian-
ship? Were they prepared to take all the consequences
that must grow out of the assumption of such a po-
licy as was there indicated? If they were deter-
mined to take the curse indicated by the resolutions,
if they indicated anything, they might as well at
once call into action the whole energies of the country.
They wanted time." This is plain speaking, and neither
England nor France can fail to see that the principle is
to be the guiding star of the people, as soon as they are
able to defend themselves. Even the outrageous resolu-
tions of Mr. ALLEN, as far as we can judge, from the
mode in which the Senate records its votes, were not de-
cidedlyrejected, for "the notice of introduction" was laid
on the table, and- the temporary defeat, if defeat
it cast be called, was obtained by a majority of only five,
there , being ,23 for their immediate adoption, and 28
against it. The motion on the Oregon question, for an-
nouncing to Great Britain that the joint occupation
shall cease in twelve months, was also simply post-
poned; so that, in fact, matters remain exactly as they
were at the commencement of the session. We deplore
these circumstances, though from the first our expecta-
tions of a peaceable settlement of the differences were
not sanguine, and we deplore them the more, because all
parties insist on demands which Great Britain never can
accede to.. The difference between them is only as to
the-time for action.

There was, on Tuesday, laid on the table of tl:c House
a return, showing the quantities of wheat, barley, and
oats, imported into Great Britain from IcelAnd daring
the years 1842, 1843, 1844, 1845. The number or
quarters of wheat imported in 1842 was 112,195, and
this quantity had gone on increasing year by year, until
in 1845 it amounted to 372,719. The import of
barley had increased from 50,287 quarters, in 1842.
to 93,095, in 1845, and that of oats, from
1,274,326 quarters, in 1842, to 1,679,958 quarters, in
1845. Now, what has been the effect of this gradually
increased importation upon the English grain market ?
Has it brought down the price of corn ? On the con-
trary, the price of corn at the end of 1815, after
this increased importation had taken place, was
higher than it was at the end of 1842. Not a single
acre of land has been thrown cut of cultivation in Eng-
lund in consequence of this increase of importation;
not a grain less of corn of any description has
been grown in Great Britain, and but for the Cus-
tom-house returns, the agriculturists of, Great Britain
would never have been aware that any grain at all had
been imported from Ireland. Now, when come century
ago it was proposed to admit Irish agricultural
produce duty free, the proposition was met
by the protectionists of that day with the
same unmewing clamour with which the pro-
positions of Sir RODELT PEEL have been met in
this. Then, as now, the great bucolic mind
saw ruin in plenty, end the Dukes of GEORGE
If., like those of VICTORIA, fancied that they
themselves could not live, unless they starved every one
else. We all remember the howl of despair that was
set up at the time of the passing of the Canada Corn
Bill. For two years that all has been in operation—
fur two years Canadian flour has been permitted to enter
the British market, and now the price of flour is actually
higher than it was before the Bill passed. That similar
results will follow from the carrying out the plan pro-
posed by Sir ROBERT PEEL we see no raison to
doubt, end however paradoxical it may appear, we
verily believe that the farmer will get a better price for
his wheat under a free-trade system, than he can under
a system of protection. This seeming parat.kx
however, is easily explained. The area of England
does not, and cannot, grow wheat sufliciert fur
the support of its population, and the con-
sequence is, that to quote the Is ords of a great
clerical protectionist, " Some millions rejoice in pota-
toes." These millions are potato-eaters, because there
is not enough corn grown iii the country to en-
able them to eat bread. A/mit foreign corn, and
these millions immediately become bread-eaters.
The supply of bread in Eng'and has never yet
been equal to the• demend ; and it is only when the
suplly is greater than the demand (and all the
surplus corn at present in Europe and America, if poured
into our markets at once, could not create a glut)—it is, we
only when the supply is greater than the demand

As a
proof that such an
event is not likely ever to take place, we will

constantly raised by tha landed protectionists, and
to the schemes of emigration which they pro pose as its
remedy.

terests are at variance with those of the community.

On Monday monopoly stood forth upon the hustings of
Lewes, in all the triumph of harlequinade, in all the
pomp of ridicule, in all the rich and lavish luxury of
self-eulogium. Mr. DARBY, the late representative, was
not present, and he was apotheosised by a Mr. Enizesei:
Mr. FREWEN was present, and he was declared to be
duly elected, at the nomination of the neighbouring pro-
tectionists. To say that the multitude of non-electors in
front of the hustings had decidedly the best of the ar-
gument throughout ; to say that they interspersed the
-proceedings wi;h running commentaries at once pithy
and intolerably true ; to say that the principal
orator was chiefly remarkable for his mixture
of threats, and entreatiee, and doggrel attempts
at facetiousness, is to say everything that can
be said of the character of the recent return of an anti-
Ministerial Member for East Sussex. Wonderful was
the dogged and leaden• headed perseverance of the agri-
cultural party in braving the jeers of their auditory ;
wonderful were their expressions of indignation at what
they appeared to regard as the turpitude of the Pre-
mier ; but doubly wonderful was their assumption of
confidence in the stability of their very composite
protection-fabric—at the very moment the earthquake
of Free Trade was rumbling under its foundations, at
the very moment when its component parts were
dropping piecemeal to the ground. When feelings of
astonishment were muttered among the parties present
at what seemed exceedingly like indolence on the
part of the League, Mr. SHELBY, an avowed abolitionist,
steps forward with a few sentences of explanation. This ex-
planation was absolutely summed up in the very significant
remark, that " his hearers were doubtless aware that it was
probable there would shortly be a general election ;" but, in
case the deduction might not be sufficiently obvious, he de-
clared his intention of then" trying his chance." To dilate
upon the species of rhetoric employed by the agricultural
gentlemen would be tantamount to a ninety-ninth encore;
the same materials having been called again into requisition,
which have now been shuttle-cocked all through the anti-
repeal forces. The successful candidate on the termination
of the regular details appeared (to revive an obsolete but ex-
pres,ive phrase) little better than mumchance ; in this he
acted with temporary prudence; his behaviour in that
respect is worthy of more general imitstioa.

We understand that the Select Committee on Rail-
ways are not likely to present any report till next week.
In the meantime a number of railway Bills have gone
to-day before the Committees on Petitions for Private
Bills, and it is to be presumed that no interference will
now take place with the usual course of proceeding with
railway Bills.

Madrid journals of the 27th ult. have been received,
but we find no news in them. Accounts from Barcelona
of the 26th, and said to be official, announce that only
the ringleader of the insurgents made prisoners, who
took up arms in the " Ampurdan," will be shot at Ge-
rona, the remaining nineteen being condemned to the
galleys.
The Spanish Funds continued firm. On the 27th the
Three per Cents. closed on the Madrid Bourse at 33i
cash and 331 at 60 days ; the Five per Cents, at 231 at
GO days.

In the French Chamber of Peers, on Monday, M.
REMUSAT brought forward his amendment, which was
founded on the sixth paragraph of the Address, relative
to the friendly relations betweea France and England,
and moved that the following words be added: But
in order that these relations be consolidated, it is neces
sary that the two Governments, while acting in concert
in the circumstances in which their interests are com-
mon, guard with care in the two worlds the full inde
pendence of their political action." In urging his amend-
ment, M. RIMUSAT argued that France acted subordi-
nately to England with regard to her policy towards the
United States, that such conduct was contrary to the
policy hitherto adopted by France, and in opposition to
her real interests. He believed war would rot break
out, but still he thought France should declare•that she
would remain to tallyindependen t, so as to choose anycourse
that might be advisable. M. GunoT said he perfectly
agreed with the proposition, that a great nation should
retain its independence ; but there wai, he considered,
something beyond the expression of that idea in the
propsed amendment. It contained a reproach against
the Ministry—an expression of mistrust, and he should
therefore move its rejection. M. THIERS, who we
believe is the mainspring of all these amendments, then
addressed the Chamber, and maintained that the Go-
vernment had adopted a mischievous policy by inter-
fering at all in the affairs of Texas. It was done solely
to please England, and the affairs of the Government
altogether were not conducted on any principles of good
sense. M. GUIZOT briefly replied, and said he could
not admit the llon. Member to be a monopolist of all
the good sense in the country. The Chamber then
divided, when there IA ere—
For the amendment

Majority for Ministers
We are glad to find that one of the Oppsitionjournals,
usually hostile towards England, has acted an indepen-
dent part with regard to the repeated amendments pro-
posed by several Members of the Right and Left. The
Courricr FT ancais regard the outbreaks of 31. BERRYER
as " an instance alike of bad taste and bad policy, and
asks whether it was becoming to launch out int(
philippics against England at the moment when new:
had arrived of those admirable financial reforms, which,
if adopted, will double the sale of French produce ire
England. Was it becoming in a leader of the Logitimatis:
party, which when lost was raised again into life by.
England, to make this furious attack upon the English?"
The Journal des Debats says :—" The Commission ap-
pointed to revise the budget for 1.147 is actively em•
played with that work. As compared with later years,
the budget presents no essential difference. Like them,
it is much more considerable titan what we were accus-
tomed to see eighteen or twenty years ay. This aug.
mentation has principally arisen from the increase in the
budgets for Public Works and Public Instruction, and in
that of the War Department, which may be accounted
for by the war in Africa. The budget of 1830 way
973,000,000 f., 187,C00,000f. of NI hid) was for the War
Ikpartment, and 34,000,000 f. for Public Works. At
present, the total amount demanded fcr the budget is,
we believe, 1,333,000;000f., the amount for defraying the
expenses of the War Department being 325,000,000 t.
and that for the Public Works 152,000,000 f. The War
budget has not quite doubled, that of Public Works more
than quadrupled, and that of Public Instruction, although
of an amount much inferior to the two previous depart-
ments, has increased fire-fold. Prom 3,500,000 f. it has
risen to 18,000,000 f.
" A portion of the French cruisers, an the Con
stituConnel, " have already taken their stations along
the western coast of Africa. Their sojourn at the Cape
Void Islands was very short, in consequence of the.
prevalence there of the yellow fever. Every precaution
had been adopted to avoid the scourge, and fortunately
with succe2s. The coast had been divided into three
zones, the first extending from the Bisago Islands, near
the Senegambia, to Three Point Cape ; the second,
from the latter to Cape Negro ; and the third, from that
cape to the small bay situate at the extremity of the
Desert coast. The second zone, containing the greater
number of suspicious points, will be the object of the
strictest surveillance."

We find the following in the E do of Oran of the
23d ult..—

"Abe-el-Kader, pursued to the south-west of the Onaren-
scnis by Marshal But:cc:il, and then by the columns of
Generals Lamoriciere and Jussuff, is said to have made a
daour, and an attack iu the east towards Goudjila. It is
also said that he has made a razzia on the Rahmans, only a
few leagues from the columns of General Marcy, and after-
wards retired in a direction which has not been discovered.
There is every reason to believe that he has moved towards
the south, where, during the winter, he will find provisions
and gain partisans. Ben Salem has roused himself into ac-
tion again. lie has quitted the Jurjnra, and, with a small
troop, has advanced five or six leagues to the south of Fort
Hamza, where, it is said, he has made a razzia on some of
the isolated dollars of the Aided Dris, but the tribes which
remain faithful to us have assembled, made an attack upon
him in return, and retaken a great part of his booty."

A letter from Algiers, of Jan. 23, in the Sentinelle de
Toulon, states that amongst the number of persons who
wore brought in a frozen state to the hospital of Setif,
fr3m the 4th to the ith ult., there were eighteen
officers, several of whom had to undergo amputation of
bath legs.

LATEST FROM AMERICA.

LIVERPOOL, TUESDAY MORNING.
The fast-sailing New York packet-ship Yorkshire
Captain Bailey, brings papers from that city to the 18th
ult., her day of sailing, the Yorkshire having trade an
excellent voyage of 15i days—one of the quickest on
record.
On the 17th a division, that to some extent may be
regarded as a trial of strength between the peace and
the war party, took place in the Senate. Mr. Allen
having moved certain resolutions, confirmatory of the
threats held out by President Pulk against all and every
European power which should venture to interfere in
American affairs, was met by Mr. Calhoun with a direct
negative, and on a division, Mr. Allen's resolutions were
rejected by a majority of 28 to 23! In the majority
there were 23 Whig senators, and five senators from
the cotton growing south, Mr. Calhoun, Mr. M‘Duffie,
&c. &c.
This divisors had produced a favourable result at New
York, and was considered the forerunner of the defeat
of the war party on the Oregon question. The debate
on that question was not to commence in the Sedate
until the 10th of February, so that we shall not know
the result until the beginning of March.
TWENTY-NINTH CONGRESS—IN SENA rE.
WASUINGTON, JAN. 14.
NON-INTERFERENCE OF EUROPEAN POWERS.
Mr. Allen having submitted his resolutions, pur-
suant to notice of yesterday, and the question arising,
shall the senator have leave now to introduce.them, to
V% it :
" Joint Resolutions declaratory of the Principles by
which the United States will be governed in regard in
the Interposition of the Powers of Europe in the Poli-
tical Affairs of America.
" Resolved, &c.— That recent manifestations of a dis-
position, by certain powers of Europe, to interfere in
the political arrangements of this continent, with a view
to the enforcement of the European principles of the
balance of power' upon the independent nations of
madeniitt' in his judgment, the duty of
ing
ed States to call the attention of
Congress
omnlegllrie3sais'dhteonitvt subject, of the United
in his annual message, and to
announce, on the part of the United States, the counter
principle of non-intervention, it is the judgment of Con-
gress that the announcement thus made by the Presi-
dent was demanded by the manifest hazard to which
such interference would inevitably expose the relations
of peace now subsisting between the old world and
the new.
"Resolved,—That Congress, thus concurring with the
President, and sensible that thii subject has been forced
upon the attention of the United States by recent events,
so significant as to make it impossible for this Govern-
ment longer to remain silent, without appearing ready
to submit to, and even to incite, the enforcement of this
dangerous doctrine, do hereby solemnly declare to the
civilised world the unalterable resolution of the United
States to adhere to and enforce the principle that any
ffurt of the powers of Europe to interineddle in the
social organization or po:itical arrangement: of the in-
dependent nations of America, or further to extend the
European system of
government upon this continent, by
the establishment of new colonies, would be incompatible
with the independent existence of the nations, and dan-
gerous to the liberties of the people of America, and
therefore would incur, as by the right of self preservation
it would justify, the prompt resistance of the United
States."
Mr. Calhoun said these resolutions embraced a prin-
ciple of action which called for the most solemn declara-
tions on the part of the Senate. It afforded matter
fur consideration, how far can the resolutions be effici-
ently acted upon, if adopted? No man could view with
stronger feelings of opposition all impertinent inter-
ference of the powers of Europe in the affairs of this
continent than he (Mr. Calhoun). And he would now
take occasion to say, that the late extraordinary
interference of Great Britain and France, in the poli-
tical domestic relations of Buenos Ayres, vvas an outrage
unprecedented in its character. But the great question
here suggested is, are we now prepared to take ibis whale
continent under our protection ? Have we reached that
state of maturity to admit of this wide and exclusive
guardianship ? Are we prepared to take all the conse-
quences that must grow out of the assumption of such a
policy as is here indicated ? If we are determined to
take the course indicated by the resolutions, if they in-
dicate anything, we might as well at once call out into
action the whole energies of the country. Let 113 have
time. Mr, Calhoun was of the firm opinion that, at
this particular moment, the resolutions of the other
Honourable Senator could have no good result—no good
effect upon the nations of the world. The President had
announced the principle ; why not be content to stand
upon that declaration ? The concurrent declaration of
Mr. Monroe had been regarded in his day, and even by
Mr. Calhoun, who was then a much younger man than
at this crisis, as unwise and really mischievous in its
effects. And what good bad resulted from it ? There
had been frequent interferences since, on the part of the
European powers, in the affairs of the independent na-
tions of this continent, of which we had taken no notice
whwever. We were rapidiy approaching to great
events. They demanded our most solemn consideration.
We were approaching, as it were, to that point where
the broad plain highway parts into two roads.—one to
the right, and the other to the left. Between the two
we were left to decide. The exigency required our
most solemn deliberation. For himself, Mr. Calhoun
said, he would rather not push this principle—at least
for the present ; but would prefer to let it remain where
the President had put it.
Mr. Allen said he had been apprehensive that even
:his proposition might be resisted in the Senate, but ho
had not supposed that the bare introduction of it would
sncounter opposition. He would not now go into a ge-
neral examination of the resolutions, but would simply
remark that the President, in his official message to
Congress, had denounced the principle of foreign inter-
position in American political affairs, and without the
approval of Congress, ho would stand, in the eyes of the
world, as taking a stand unsupported by the concurrence
if the balance of the Government. Never, since the de-
Aeration of Mr. Monroe against foreign interference in
the domestic relations of this continent, had Mr. Allen
heard the propriety of that declaration questioned among
.he people [Mr. Allen is great for the people]. As far
as his observation had extended, he had never heard the
justice or the policy of this position questioned: nor had
known it to meet with opposition from any American
mind. Mr. Allen further expatiated upon the propriety
of Congress confirming this position of the President.
fie did not ash the consideration of the resolution now ;
it would be referred, if received, to the Committe on Fe-
Relations,-who would, doubtless, give it that serious
reflection which Ve case required, and would report ac-
;ordingly.
Mr. Calhoun inquired if the Chairman on Foreign
Relations had submitted this resolution on his own indi-
vidual responsibility?
Mr. Allen said, yes, Sir, it-is my own work.
Mr. Calhoun said that he considered this an urpre-
Iledsnted proceeding and entirely out of order. Here we
have the Chairman on Foreign Relations introducing A
'nest important measure without consultation of the
Committee. Mr. Calhoun said that he should beg
nothing. He knew precisely where he stood. He was
not disposed now to rush forward into any measure that
would further entangle our foreign relations. If we
xere resolved upon this measure, we ought at once to
put forth the whole of our strength. We ought to de-
dare ourselves a military republic, and that the wheel
continent was under our especial protecion. Why did
not the Senator at once come forward with a specific re-
solution touching the affairs at Buenos Ayres? It was
the part of wisdom to look to wise ends from wise means.
No wise man would determine upon a result which he
knew to be beyond his means—no more would any wise
nation do so. A wise man, or a wise nation, should al-
-rays be prepared to do what they may declare to be
their determination to accomplish. Mr. Calhoun posi-
tively objected to the reception of the resolutions, and
railed for the ayes and noes.
Mr. Jarnagin moved to lay the question of reception
epon the table, and upon this motion he called the yeas
and nays. [Mr. Jarnagin's resolution corresponds with
the action upon abolition papers.]
Mr. Crittenden P. sked if the resolutions would lie there
without the privilege of being called up again ?
Voices—Oh! no, no. The resolution can be offered

again.
Mr. Jarnagi❑ stated that his objeet in the motion was
lot to cut off the resolution entirely, but merely for the
present to lay the subject upon the table.
Mr. Allen said the action of the Senate upon this mo.
tion would be conclusive of—(Cries of " Order, order.")
Mr. Allen asked the Chair to state the question.
The Chairman stated the question to be, shall the
question of leave to introduce the resolutions be laid on
the table ? And the Senate decided that it should, by a
vote of 28 to 23—Messrs. Calhoun, Chalmers, IIeywo::(1,
and Al‘Dutile, voting with the Whigs in the affirmative.
" So," says the correspondent of the New York aurier
and Enquirer, "Mr. Allen was completely flpored and
laid out cold upon the table."
News had been received at New Orleans, that the
Mexican army of reserve, under General Parades, ha
declared against the Government on account of the timid
spirit which it had shown in the negotiations with the
United States. It was advancing on the capital, and its
success was expected to be followed by a war with the 1,
States. The troops at Tampico have joined the move-
ment.

NEW ORLEANS, JAN. B.—Business for the last two
days has been quite lively, and a pretty stiff trade has
been driven in cotton, the sales having amounted to
10,500 bales, at the following rates:—lnforier, 6c.; or-
dinary, 61c. to 61c.• middling, 6ic. to 61c.; good mid-
dling, 7c. to 7ie.; middling fair, 7Ae. to 7-1-c.; fair, 7ic.
to Bc.; good fair, Bic. to ; good and fine, 9c. to 94c.
The arriva's have been small, and not worth mention-
ing. Sugar holds its own 1,000 hhds. having kern sold
at from 52c. to 54c. for a fair article. Molasses sells at
from 2021 c. to 21c. per gallon, and at these rates 2,000
hbds. have been sold the last two days.
Flour is in the same state, although the sales have
been moderately extensive ; about 4,231 brls. haring
been sold at the last quoted rates. Corn is a trifle lower,
bringing from 52 to 58 cents. a sack. About 4,000 sacks
were sold at these rates yesterday.
Exchanges continue in the same state.
NEW YORK, JAN. 17.

more firm at our last quotations. Sales were made in
Genesee, for export, at 5 dolls. 75 cents; and in Southern
at 5 dolls. 75 cents to 5 dolls. 87i cents.
COTTON.—There was a moderate inquiry to-day, and

RAILWAY COMMIT FELS.

The railway campaign of 1846 commenced this morning,
and once more motloy groups of engineers, levellers, surveyors,
and traffic-takers were to be seen lounging about Palace-) and
long before twelve o'clock, the hour appointed for the meet-
ing of the three first Sub-Committees of the session. The
cloister, lobbies, and numerous anti-rooms of the House of
Commons became besieged with crowds of anxious share-
holders, railway projectors, Parliamentary agents; and the
various approaches to the Committee-rooms were every now
and then blocked up with sturdy porters and messengers,

Sub-Committee No. 1.

This Committee met shortly after twelve o'clock, and pro-
ceeded with their labours. The Committee consisted of
Mr. Strutt (chairman), Mr. Forbes, Mr. Wrightson, and ➢ir.
Brotherton.
The Committee took the cases of the East Lincolnshire and
Sheffield and Rotherham first, and after hearing the
evidence in their favouir, declared that the standing orders
had been complied with in both instances. The Staines
and Richmond Bill next came before them. The
Bill was opposed by landholders, but the opposition
proved futile, and the Committee ruled that the stand-
ing orders had been fully complied' with. In
the case of the South-Western (Romsey and Redbridge
branch) Railway, which stood next on- the list, the com-
mittee decided that the standing orders in one or two minor
instances had not been complied with, and they, therefore,
intend to report accordingly to the General Committee on
public petitions.
The Committee adjourned shortly after four o'clock till to-
morrow.

Sub-Committee No. 3.

The member 3 of this Committe were, Mr. Aglionbv
(Chairman), Captain Jones, Mr. Alciham, Mr. Stanstield, and
Mr. Thornely.

The Committee passed the Wakefield, Pontefract and
Goole (Netherby, Askew, and Oakenshaw branches)
Railway; the North Kent Railway; and the
North Kent City (Extension) Railways; the London
and South-Western (Chertsey and Egham Branch)
Railway ; the London and South Western
(London Bridge Extension) Railway ; the London
and South Western (Hampton Court Branch) Rail-
way; the London and South-Western (the Fareham
and Alton Branch) Railway; the South Stafford-
shire (Harecastle and Sandback Branch) Railway ; the
Epsom and Dorking Railway; and the Leeds and Bradford
(Alteration of Levels in Bingley) Railway.
The Committee adjourned at five o'clock.

Sub-Committee, No. 2.
This Committee commenced its sittings at twelve o'clock
yesterday in room No. 6; Sir John Yarde Buller, chairman.
The Committee were occupied in ccnsidering the following
Bills :

The Glasgow, Paisley, Kilmarnock, and Ayr Railway
and branches, Nos. 1,2, 3, and 4. In the case of Bills No. 1
and 4, it was decided that the standing orders bad not been
complied with in some trifling instances. Bills 2 and
3 were declared to have complied with the standing orders.
The Committee then proceeded with the Ayrshire and Gal-
loway Riilway Bill.

Several allegations were raised against the Bill, a few of
which were sustained, but the inquiry had not concluded
when we went to press.
The CHAIRMAN informed the parties in waiting that they
would not take any other Bill till the following day.

lEARFUL ATTEMPT AT SELF-DESTRUCTION.—OR
Tuesday mot ning, between one and two o'clock, a married fe •
male, named Eliza Head, thirty years of age, and residing
with her husband, a dealer in poultry, at No. 38, Hart-street,
Covent-garden, attempted to commit suicide by pre-
cipitating herself from the second-floor window of
that house into the street. In her descent she
she came in contact with a leaden projecrion at the first
story, which in a measure broke her fall, or she would most
probably have been killed upon the spot. She was at once
conveyed to Charing-cross Hospital, where she was promptly
attended by Dr. Birkitt, who discovered that in addition to a
fractured skull her collar-bone w,s broken, and that she had
received other serious injuries. Jealousy of her' husband was
the cause of her attempted self- destruction. She remains at
the institution in a most deplorable state of suffering.

The effect of the anticipated repeal of the corn-laws upon
the American markets is'explained in the following extract
from papers received this morning, to as late a date as the
17th ult.

" The news is of the greatest importance. The modifica-
tion or repeal of the corn-laws of Great Britain will, without
doubt, take place immediately after the meeting of Perna-
mgnt. The London Times of December 10th, repeats its
assertions, made on the 4th, but with qualifications that take
away a great deal of their important character and strengh.
The effect of this announcement upon the various markets
was very great, and had put a stop to all transactions of
importance. The money and corn markets continued very
tranquil, and will doubtless remain so until Parliament meet
and these questions are settled. There was some activity in
the cotton market, and prices were firm, the sales being
mostly to the trade.
" The effect of this news upon the markets of this country
cannot be otherwise than favourable. Prices of flour and
grain will particularly feel the influence of such accounts,
as a repeal of the corn-laws would create a very extensive
demand for these articles, and create large speculative ship-
ments.

" The accounts by the steamship of the 4th instant from
Liverpool, now nearly due, will be more anxiously looked for
now than previous to this arrival. Business here will be in
a great degree suspended until the steamer arrives, as the
greatest excitement prevailed this evening, throughout the
city, soon after our extra was issued."

The intention of the English Government to reduce the
duty on Tallow, causes purchases for immediate consumption
to be deferred, and about two-thirds of the stock is in bond. In
the meantime the whole of the duty paid stock will be taken
for consumption, as the trade are not at all in stock, and
consequently will not be Iwo by the reduction.
There has been a rally in the value of the English Stocks
of about 1% per cent. consequent on the favourable intelli-
gence from New York. Consols are 94% to 95% for Money,
and 95% to 951/ for Account. Exchequer-bills have run up
to 325. and 355. premium. Bank Stock has risen to 207 and
208, and East India Stock to 2551/, and 2571/. The New
Three-and a-Quarter per Cents. are 9734 to 9814. Every-
thing looks buoyant.
In Foreign Stocks there is scarcely anything doing. Spa-
nish Five per Cents. are steady at 28, and the Three per
Cents. have touched 38%. Brazilian Bonds are 8214.
Dutch Four per Cents, are 9414 to 3%.
Shares to a partial extent have felt the favourable effect of
the advance in Stocks.

We bear that the above galhint flag-officer died at the close
of last week, at his suit in Irel,tud, in the 7lst year of his age.
He entered the navy at a very- early age, and was lieutenant
of the Vanguard in 1791, when that vessel formed part of the
squadron engaged in the reduction of the French West India
Islands. When lieutenant of the Astrea he had the honour
of participating in the gallant action with La Loire, which
ended in the capture of the French frigate, after a spirited
contest of fifty minutes. The deceased was present in Lord
Bridport's action in 1793, and in 1801 he commanded the
Terror, at the defeat of the Danish fleet at Copenhagen.
