supporters of Tory principles and old monopolies, havoist
to their friends their determination to a v'ote agahl'etba 9

protective colonial system. Their own interest in, ,

Indies and Mauritius, together with their known inueolitil
and consistency, render the probable defection the °eh jgr' /3,1

may, therefore, rest confidently assured that no possible exer-
tion shall be wanting to produce such novelty, variety, and
attraction, as to render this Theatre still more pre-eminent, if
possible, in its position than ever the reiterated acknowledg-
ments of the public already so flatteringly pronounced it.
On MONDAY next, February 14, another new Domestic
Drama, to be entitled MARY WHITE ; or, the MURDER
at the OLD TABBARD; supported by Miss Vincent, the
acknowledged Heroine of Domestic Tragedy, and Mr. E. F.

PRICE 5d

,ntirely to the sliding scale, which he preserves.
He is to alter that scale thus:—
At present, the duty on wheat at 50s. and
ander 51s. is 365. Bd., and it increases ls. for
every ls. the price of wheat falls. Sir ROBERT
PEEL proposes when the price is under 51s. the
luty shall be 205., and shall never be further in-
treased however low the price may fall. By the
present scale the duty falls Is. for every Is. the
price rises, till it reaches 675., when the duty, then
-205., ceases to slide, and leaps irregularly till it
ends at is. when the price reaches 735., and so re-
mains. Sir ROBERT PEEL proposes that`the duty of
20s. when the price is•under 51s. shall fall Is. as-the
price rises, till it reaches 535. Then he introduces
a resting place in the scale, and the duty remains
18s. till the price reaches 555. As the price rises
ls. above this, the duty falls ls. till the price reaches
675., when there is another resting place, and the
duty remains at Os. till the price has got up to
19s. The duty then again falls Is. as the price
rises Is., till the latter reaches 755., when the duty
is to cease altogether. .
Sir ROBERT PEEL praises the plan as
likely to produce a greater steadiness of price.
By avoiding the jumping of the present
scale, when prices reach above 675., it will
certainly enable the merchant to count with
more certainty on his market. It will probably
satisfy Mr. CRIPPS, by permitting him at times to
bring returns from the United States. But this
is its only merit. Men will endeavour still to
evade the duty though the temptation will be
somewhat lessened, and the bulk of the corn
imported will be hereafter, as heretofore, at the
lowest duty. The consequence will be that the
average price under Sir ROBERT PEEL'S scale
must be 755. before corn is imported, whereas
now it is imported at 735., paying is. duty.
We understand why a resting place is intro-
duced at 675., but we know no reason for intro-
ducing another at 555., except it be for uni-
formity. Sir ROBERT PEEL boasted of his duty
not increasing beyond 205., which is mere idle
talk, for the duty at that rate now is completely
inoperative, and the higher duty might just as
ivell be 1001. as 20s. He wished, he said, that
the, price of wheat should be generally between
545. and 585., and he kindly proposes a
duty on it at that price of 16s. Bd. In
fact Sir R. PEEL'S plan is the poorest alteration
we have yet seen proposed in the Sliding Scale.
It was, accordingly, at once justly treated as a
mockery by Mr. COBDEN. In ordinary and
prosperous times it might have done, but to pro-
pose it now is like offering a perfume to
a man at the point of, death from
starvation. But not only is the scale a mockery ,
the speech which introduced it was a bitter,
biting insult to common-sense, and to the
starving people. Sir ROBERT PEEL, as the agent
of the landowners, had the extraordidary pre-
sumption to stand up in the House of Commons,
and contend that the distress of the people was
not caused by the unjust legislation of which he
is the advocate. He sought to throw the blame,
which properly belongs to bad laws, on the strug-
gles of the manufacturers to keep themselves
from sinking under the weight of his mischievous
legislation. His petty alteration in the sliding
scale might have been laughed at, as an index
to the mean mind of Sir R. PEEL; but when all
around him is groaning with agony, from the
determination of the aristocracy to destroy the
liberties and appropriate the property of the
people by law, it is more, we believe, than
human nature will bear, to have this man using
his talents to exonerate the aristocracy and throw
the blame of the mighty - mischief they have
caused, on those who are honestly and honour-
ably seeking to gain a living for themselves, and
to find employment and bread for others.
It was terribly insulting, also, to hear Sir 11.
PEEL introduce an elaborate, and yet unfounded,
comparison between the labouring classes in
England and Prussia, contending in substance
that the former ought to be contented, because
they are not worse off than the latter. Why
did he not refer to the immense deal of wealth
1.

which our labouring classes produce more than
_ _ _

than the labourers of Prussia, of which the

proof is the great number of persons who are
maintained in idleness and opulence by their
labour ? His statistics were both false and in-

suiting; for the great number of our middle
classes, and the domestic consumption of the
agricultural classes in Prussia, which cannot be
brought into the account, renders the ave-
rages of consumption, which he quoted, as
worthless as his new scale. Sir ROBERT

PEEL'S speech, worse than his trifling alteration,
was a cold-blooded insult both to the suffering

manufacturers and the still more suffering work:

men ; and it will make a profound and general

impression, unfavourable to the aristocracy of
which he is the organ.

We refer to our Foreign Summary for an abstract of
all the Continental news of any importance found in the
French, Spanish, Belgian, and German papers received
this morning.
