EAST INDIA HOUSE.-(THIS DAY.)

FURTHER ADJOURNMENT OF THE TEA SALE.
The trade again met in great numbers to-day, and as soon as
the presiding director had taken his seat,
Mr. VARNIIAM, the principal, buyer of yesterday, addressed
the chairman, and referring to the result of the sale yester-
day, said both the company and the revenue had lost consi-
derably by the determination of the Court of Directors refusing
to grant the wishes of the trade. On the part of those he
bought for yesterday, he had now to state that the whole so
purchased should be thrown back on the company's hands if the
Court would not meet the demands of the trade. The Court
of Directors must see the impolicy of proceeding with the sale
till justice was done to the trade.—(Hear.)

The CHAIRMAN said he was placed in a delicate situation,
and if the trade would state their intentions as mentioned by
the hon. gentleman who had just spoken, he would, on his own
responsibility, adjourn the sale until the Court of Directors had
assembled upon the subject.

Mr. TWINING said it was the anxious wish of the trade to
bring this matter to a satisfactory conclusion, and he hoped
justice would still be done to the trade. The offer now made
was perfectly fair. The trade now wished not to hurt the re-
venue or the Company; but the Company must see that, with
the unanimity which prevailed among the whole trade, it would
be impossible for the sale to proceed satisfactorily.
The CHAIRMAN said it was impossible for him to say what
the Court would do. If the trade, by writing—(Cries of "By
deputation")--or by deputation would meet the Court, they
would no doubt consider the offer now made by Mr. Varnham.
He would, therefore, adjourn the sale until the Court of Direc-
tors had met, when the subject would be considered.
The sale was accordingly adjourned ; and Mr. Twining, Mr.
Travers, and Mr.:Varnham were appointed a committee to have
an interview with the Court of Directors.

Canal question for the last five days; last night they proposed
to rescind Mr. Robinson's resolutions for paying 115,0001. to
the stock holders, 25,0001. to the creditors, &c., and took into
consideration another set of resolutions by Mr. Benzy, to bor-
row 50,000/. on the credit of the colony, and apply 25,0001. of
it to pay some of the canal debts ; the rest to repair the works.
Nothing is as yet done.
By private letters from Quebec we learn that his Excel-
lency the Governor in Chief has for some time past been con-
fined to his apartment with fever, but is now, we are happy to
state, recovering.
Quebec papers of Friday state, that after the Gazette was
published, the Legislative Council resolved to appeal to his
Majesty on the question of the double vote of the Speaker, and
that the House of Assembly annulled the resolution of the
Committee on the Contingent Expenses Bill by a majority of
two, the votes being 35 to 38. It was generally supposed that
the intention was to put the question off till the 15th instant,
when the call of the house is to take place.

His Excellency Lord Aylmer and his Lady have been resid-

Letters from Madrid state that the monks of Salamanca have
openly declared against the Queen, several of whom have been
arrested. The other monks, who were informed of this act of
the government, assembled, and proceeded to the prison to re-
lease them ; but the students of Salamanca being informed of
their intention, took to arms, attacked the monks, and put
them to the route, killing a great number of them. They af-
terwards stormed their convent, and pillaged it.
Accounts have been received, via New York, from Vera

The government ofMexico have taken up cudgels against Col.

they will cause him serious embarrassments.

The pressure for money still continues severe, and the oc-
currence of several more failures has almost put an end to con-
fidence. Money commands 2 per cent. per month. The effect
of this state of things on mercantile operations can be readily
imagined. The sales of merchandize are limited.
