LONDON, WEDNESDAY, JUNE 11, 1845.

The House of Lords met at Five o'clock.

Lord PORTMAN gave notice that, on Thursday, he
would introduce a Bill to amend the law of landlord and
tenant in England.
The report of the Commissioners on the Crimina
Law was laid on the table.

The order of the day for the House going into Com-
mittee on the Maynooth Bill having been read,
The Duke of LEINSTER defended the College against
the aspersions which had been cast on it.

The Earl of CLANCARTY moved the committal of the
Bill that day six months, but after a short discussion,
withdrew his motion, and the Bill passed through Com-
mittee.

Lord STANLEY gave notice that he should move the
second reading of the Landlord and Tenants (Ireland)
Bill on Friday, and their Lordships adjourned.

The House of Commons met at Four o'clock.

Lord PALMERSTON gave nctice, for the Bth of July, of
a motion for the production of the evidence taken before
the mixed Commission of Inquiry into the best means
of suppressing the Slave Trade.
Mr. 11. BERKELEY gave notice, for the same day, of a
motion for an address to the Crown to reward the ser-
vices of the officers, seamen, and marines engaged in the
late war in China, and

Mr. T. DIINCOMBE gave notice of a motion, for the
same day. for the repeal of the rate-paying clauses of the
Reform Bill.

Mr. VILLIERS then brought forward his motion on
the subject of the Corn-laws. The Hon. Gentleman
concluded a long and eloquent speech, replete with va-
luable statistical information, showing the baneful effects
produced by the present prohibitive system of corn-laws,
by moving—

" That this House resolve itself into a Committee of the
whole House, for the purpose of considering the follow-
ing resolutions :

" That the corn-law restricts the supply of food, and pre-
vents the free exchange of the products of labour.
" That it is therefore prejudicial to the welfare of the
country, especially to that of the working classes, and has
proved delusive to those for whose benefit the law was de-
signed.

" That it is expedient that all restrictions on corn should
be now abolished."
Mr. OSWALD seconded the moticn. A very animated
debate followed, in the course of which the House was
addressed by Mr. Christopher, Mr. Mitchell, Mr. Buck
Mr. M. Philips, Sir J. Graham, Mr. Bright, Mr. S.
O'Brien, Dr. Bowring, Mr. Cobden, Mr. Bankes, Lord
John Russell, Sir R. Peel, and Lord Howick; after

which the House divided, and the motion was negatived
by a majority of 132.

The result of the debate on Mr. VILLIERS' moticn
was only what might have been anticipated with such a
House of Commons, and a Ministry not yet prepared for
further change ; but, nevertheless, though the division
was adverse, the speeches of all the leading men
furnish grounds of consolation for the poor,
and hold out the brightest prospects. The triumph
of argument was all on one side, and the
very admissions made by Sir ROBERT PEEL and Sir
JAMES GRAHAM showed that they fought against their
will. According to the speech of the Prime Minister,
the abolition of the corn-laws was only a question of
time, for, having declared himself an advocate for
free trade, he could not defend the law on the ground
that it was a protection to any particular interest.
On what ground, then, could he defend it? Because
a sudden change might be injurious not only to land-
owners but to the agricultural labourers. In fact, the
only difference between Mr. VILLIERS and Sir ROBERT
PEEL was, that the latter would du in time what the
former required should be done at once. This is the
greatest victory yet obtained by the opponents of the
corn-law. Messrs. COBDEN and Co. have opened the
eyes of the farmers, and of many landlords also—
they have at last opened the eyes of Sir ROBERT PEEL,
and he only waits his opportunity. Between conviction
and completion the period generally is very short, and
one bad season would set the question at rest. The
crisis is already approaching. The price of cattle for
food is enormously high, and notwithstanding the scores
of bullocks imported weekly from Holland, and articles
of consumption furnished by other countries, the
new tariff, which caused such awful consterna-
tion, has turned out a nonentity. The prices
of cattle and corn mutually affect each other ;
the one cannot rise without raising the other.
Grain too has been rising on the Continent, and symp-
toms altogether conspire for the accomplishment of this
act of justice to the manufacturing, mercantile, and
other important classes of this great commercial
country. But let not these considerations damp the
ardour of the corn-law repealers. Now is the time for
them to work more vigorously than ever—the prize is
within their reach, and nothing but apathy and sloth
can save it from their grasp.

The debate of Monday night on the new Banking
Bill -for Ireland elicited, in a prominent manner, the
besetting prejudice of the Premier's views on all ques-
tions and schemes connected with the currency. The
normal error of all his legislation on this question con-
sists in arguing from an abuse to an original vicious-
ness of principle. But the very nature of abuse, in the
abstract, implies the perversion of a principle good and
salutary in itself. If we admit to Sir ROBERT PEEL tO
the full extent of his overcharged statement all the evils
he ascribes to occasional over-issues of paper, the aggre-
gate of whose circulation greatly exceeds that of the
bona fide property which it professes to represent, our
admission will add nothing to his deficient proof of the
evils of that monetary system with which his Bills of
1819, 1823, and 1844, have so fatally interfered. If
the same medium—a paper circulation—in the days of ex-
cessive speculation, prior to 1819, was, in its less substan-
tial branches, productive of the mischief that Sir ROBERT
is so fond of multiplying in kaleid ascopic variety, and
every imaginable tint and colour, till he has almost per-
suaded himself that they are interminable (although it
is his own hand which, all the while, is shaking backwards
and forwards the few ingeniously disposed, but worth-
less, fragments which produce the specious cheat to the
eyes of the uninitiated); if the same medium also bore
the empire in triumph through the enormous pressure of
the last war, and laid deep and broad the productions of
our present commerce and our power of accumulating
capital—is the greater and more beneficial operation to
be put out of view—wiped away from the record—in
order that the prejudicial, but infinitely lesser, operation
may be brought out with so much the greater (IT,:ct ?
There is neither truth nor equity—statesmanship nor
logic—in these perpetual attempts of Sir ROBERT PEEL
to exaggerate the occasional mischiefs, and to erase the
general benefits, that are produced under such a system
as he has superseded in England and Wales. It
must be palpable to the conviction of every candid mind,
that had we undertaken the wars which raged from 1803
to 1815 under such a monetary system as we have now,
of gold and paper convertible into gold on demand, this
country would have been a province of the French em-
pire. National bankruptcy must have inevitably over-
taken us at a very early period of that enormous
conflict. England must have succumbed in a struggle
in which she could not, and would nor, fall
back on such frightful resources. Whether the Pre-
mier has been, in his own person, at any time, a
sufferer by the over-issues of private banks we do not
know, and have no care to inquire. The bitterness of
his remarks on Monday night on the fearful conse-
quences he had witnessed some years ago, as arising out
of the failure of some banks in the west and south of
Ireland, might, however, provoke come surmises. We
are far mure tempted to ask what has been the amount
of personal advantage derived by himself or his con-
nexions from the establishment of that gold standard of
currency to which he clings with a tenacity regardless
alike of logic and experience. When a gentleman so
well acquainted. with the principles of commerce and the
elements that ensure the success of mercantile enter-
prise, so constantly talks not "of green fields,"
but of the horrors of over-trading in merchandise and
over-issues of paper, we cannot help surmising a private,
personal, interested, all-sufficing reason in the
back ground for such tenacity of purpose. No
man

knows better than the Premier that
it is of the first importance to a country that its absolute
capital or property should be rendered active and circu-
lating by an adequate representative capital in money
of some kind—paper as well as metal—that nothing like
such an adequate representative of Lonii fide, but un-
employed, property does exist under his own scheme of
currency, in England—and yet he insists on a principle,
the convertibility of paper into gold, which can never
work without the destructive and crippling limitations
of which we speak, till the gold bullion of this country
and of all the circulation of Europe be multiplied at least
thirty-fold. No man knows better than the same Right
Hon. Baronet that the soul of commerce is freedom of
action—that its vitality is identified with the security
of its own rights of opinion as well as action, and, there
fore, that speculation is no more than the unrepressed ex-
pansion of that principle, the unfettered exercise of
those rights. To seek to extinguish over-trading or
excessive speculations, the limits and lines necessary for
the definition of which no man has ever yet at-
tempted to draw, is about as idle as to attempt
the discovery of a means of maintaining the respiration
of the lungs without oxygen, merely because it is pos-
sible to combine that essential vital principle with others
destructive of life, and that such combinations now and
then accidentally develop themselves under disastrous
and very fatal circumstances ; and yet Sir ROBERT has
borne his pseudo-currency " standard" in triumph
through England and Wales ; has exhibited it within
the limits of Scotland, over which, as well as Ireland, it
it is destined soon to float as "wide unfurled" as it is
now in England, and with the same calamitous results.
The gentlemen of Ireland are as sensible to the danger
as those of Scotland, however tardily, they have shown
themselves to be. On Monday night Mr. ROCHE, Sir R.
FERGUSSON, Mr. REMINGTON, Lord CLEMENTS, Mr.
WYSE, and Mr. SHARMAN CRAWFORD, successively ad-

vanced, with all the authority of their local knowledge,
experience, and personal character, most conclusive argu-
ments against the Banking Bill (Ireland). They were
not successful. The evil day, we fear, must come, and
then-woe to those who will have incurred the
responsibility of invoking it !

Madrid journals of the 3dinst. have been received. No
official announcement of the abdication of Don CARLOS had
appeared in the Gazette, but several of the papers comment
on it as a matter of fact, though of little importance. The
Leo del Commercio states that Queen CHRISTINA was about
to present to the POPE a crozier of great value, and another
journal says she has already sent to his Holiness a tiara,
valued at 4,000 f. The Government, it was said, had forwarded
from Valencia its ultimatum to the Court of Rome, with in-
structions to the Spanish Ambassador to demand his pass-
ports unless the proposed terms were accepted.
The Funds continued to fall. On the 3d the Three per
Cents. closed at 31i for cash, and 32a at 60 days; the Five
per Cents. at 21 Y for cash, and 22 at 60 days; and the Debt,
without Interest at 7 for the 9th of July.

The French Chamber of Deputies on Monday commenced
the discussion on the budget of expenses for 1846, when
speeches were made by MM. LEDRU ROLLIN, Ducos,
LAROCIIEJAQUELIN, and others, but they excited no interest,
and the general discussion was closed. Several Members
adverted to the Bill for converting the Five per Cent. Stock,
which bad been resisted by the Chamber of Peers, and 31.
Biscas reminded the Finance Minister that he had pledged
himself to bring forward a measure next session, should
circumstances permit, for reducing that Stock. The Finance
Minister said his opinion had not at all been changed by the
decision of the other Chamber. The Sicle contains the fol-
lowing remarks on the present rage for railway speculation in
France as well as England ;----

" If all the Railroad Bills that have been presented to the Cham-
bers during the present session were tacked to each other, end by
end, they would extend to the length of 700 leagues ; and the ex-
penditure they would impose upon the Companies and the Govern.
ment would amount to a thousand millions of francs (40,000,000/.
sterling). But this budget of public works does not nearly ap-
prraoralichmtehnatt.

doms embrace a length altogether of 8,080 English miles, or 3,250
leagues. Of these, the share for Ireland is 1,490 miles, or 563
leagues. This enumeration does not comprise the thousands of pro-
je As of the same kind brought forth by the ardour of capitalists.
And all this is passing in a country which already possesses the most
snegnificent lines of railroad, so that those which now excite this
fever cannot be principal lines, but mere branches, bearing the
same proportion to those now laid as the main roads bear to the
♦icinal or cross roads in France."

The contract with Messrs. MACKENZIE and Co., for laying
down the rails on the Orleans and Tours line, had been signed,
and it was understood that the railway would be opened by
the Ist of October, 1845.

TWO' DAYS LATER FROM THE
UNITED STATES.
(EXPRESS FROM LIVERPOOL.)
---

WEDNESDAY MORNINIA—The fast-sailing New York packet-
ship Queen of the West, Captain Woodhouse, arrived here last
night, with dates to the 22d ultimo. She brought 35 passengers.
The steamer Britannia arrived at Boston on the 19th, with news
from this country to the 4th of May. The Cotton market had
taken a favourable turn, in consequence of the news brought by her
of an advance in price, and a considerable business was done.
There was yet no decisiva news from Mexico, but every day
brought fresh evidence that, amongst the people, the proposition
made by the President to Congress was almost unanimously
approved. _ _ _

No Minister to England had been fixed upon by the Washington
Cabinet. The office, it is said, had been offered in turn to Mr.
Elmore, Mr, Perkins, and General Hamilton, but had been by each
declined.

There have been no arrivals to-day bringing la!er news, if
we except the intelligence from Buenos Ayres, and which is
rather too favourable to the Argentines to deserve implicit
credit. At all events, however, the Montevideans appear
lately to be playing a losing game in respect to their warlike
operations.
The proceedings before the Parliamentary Committees on
Railways continue to excite a lively degree of interest, and
the sudden check to the Cambridge and Lincoln Bill has.
again revived in a slight degree the hopes of those who ad-
vocate a direct and independent line to York. It would
seem, however, that as the check to the Cambridge Bill is

valid ground for parti-
cular confidence as to the passing of the York.
Altogether, it is quite evident that there will be
very few railway Bills passed this session ; although enough,
we hope, to afford moderate employment to the labourers,
and to keep up a fair consumption of iron, and other leading
staples, without unduly forcing up prices.
