BALTIC TIMBER.—As the Ships from Norway
and the Baltic begin to arrive here towards the
end of March, they can between that period and--
the Ist of July, bring into the English market
more than a year's consumption of 'Timber and
Deals for the whole kingdom—whilst, on the
other- hand, it rarely happens, that any of the
Ships with Timber from the British Colonies
arrive before the Ist of. July, consequently the
proposed alterations in the duties on Timber will';
after this year annihilate altogether the Timber
Trade of the King's Colonies.
NATIONAL SCHOOLS.— Th e Committee of the
National School on Dr. BELL'S system report,
that nearly 540,000 children are, at this time,

, orated by The Highland Society of London on
Wednesday next, when, the Duke of York, the
Duke of Wellington, and several illustrious pee-
sonageS will Attend.
Barrtsm AMERICAN CoLoNtes.—We have'
heard that one of the members of the Select Com-
mittee on Foreign Trade said to a City friend the
other day, that it would be to the advantage of
Great Britain and these Colonies, that the latter
should be independent of the former, and allowed
to trade • wherever they could. To which his
friend replied he. did not think so, for that

they would fall into the hands of the Americans,
and would soon be followed with the loss of our
Newfoundland Fisheries and Sugar Colonies in
the West Indies—that such was the opinion of
all sensible Men, and amongst thein the Abbe
RAYNAL, whose work on the West Indies is well
known. If these are the views of some of our
present Legislators, we shall not be surprised at
any measures which may be adopted respecting
our Colonial interests!

for Naples and the Mediterranean of. Foreign
Wheat took place in the course of the list
