the right-hand side of the robing-room of her
jesty, will be appropriated to the use of the spiritual
peers.
The House of Lords comes next in the order of
arrangement, and will be situate on the principal
story, preserving a level throughout with the old floor
of St. Stephen's Chapel, so that entrance for the
Peers may either be obtained along the corridors
from the river front, or by that leading from Old
Palace-yard, the size of the House of Lords, as well
as that of the House of Commons, will be reduced to
the smallest -possible limits compatible with the re-
quired accommodation, and to give them the form
and arrangement which will afford the greatest num-
ber of sittings in the smallest possible space, bring the
Members nearest to each other and to the Speaker,
and be the most convenient for carrying on the ordi-
nary routine of business.

The damage on board the Royal Victoria was much
more serious than that on board the Prince of Wales,
as the latter drove into the engine-room of the other.
Happily no person on board the Prince of Wales was
injured; but we are sorry to say that the concussion
caused serious injury to several individuals in the
Royal Victoria. I'our or five individuals have been
carried to the hospital, one of whom has already died
of the injury which he suffered. Both vessels were
got round and taken safely into dock.—Liverpool

two Houses will be placed as nearly as possible
in the centre of the whole mass of buildings, this
being considered the position hest adapted for com-
munication with each other, and with their respective
offices and accommodations; for easy access from the
various entrances and approaches, public and private ;
for security from noise and disturbance ; for allowing
their form and size to be exactly fitted to the wants of
each House ; for the purposes of lighting, warming,
and ventilating in the most convenient manner ; and
for making any modifications or alterations in them
which may be thought desirable without deranging
the general plan and elevations.
It has been thought proper to avoid placing any
Members' , seats under the galleries, as well as any
seats whatever behind the Woolsack or the Speaker's
chair.

He absconded on the afternoon of the 26th November, and

the Prince of Wales, and the latter ran into her just

If they do not repeal the duty on Canadian corn,
they will deceive the Canadians. If they do,
they will give the consumer here tolerably free
access to the western States of America.

The Canadians seem to rely implicitly on Lord
STANLEY. The difference between the Cost of send-
ing flour to England from Ohio by the Hudson or
by the St. Lawrence, is very small; and in orde r
to secure and force the trade to themseves, the
Canadians have taken another most important
step. A special Committee of the Legislative
Assembly of Canada has passed a series of resolu-
tions, and founded an address on them to the
QUEEN, one of which is the following :
Resolved,—That with a view of securing the
transit of the western States of America through those
waters, it is indispensable to allow a drawback on all
grain and flour shipped to Britain from the ports on
the St. Lawrence, whenever the price of flour exceeds
30s. sterling per barrel, at the ports of Montreal and
Quebec.
