ossh,g of the present Bill should be allowed to be en.
'red for home consumption, till the average price
sched 665. and that thenceforward all corn so bonded,
tr
or
thereafter imported, should come under the regulao
too of the Bill." This was acceded to by the Right
1100, Gentleman, no doubt for the desirable purpose
that I hive already stated, of checking the aceumulaa
00 of corn under bond, which was also the purpose of
04 Noble Duke in proposing the Amendments The
Noble Lord proceeded to contend. that the opinintr
or the president of the Board of Trade was Conform-
Ole with the Amendment of the Noble Duke, end that
the only
difference between that Amendment and the
0t mot Bill was, that as the present Bill was from its
',oot temporary, those regulations were temporary,
slip to which the Noble Duke's Arneodment would
have affixed the character of permanency. One reason
for withdrawing the late Bill, it was alleged, was, that
the Amendment would be fatal to it in the other
House of Parliament, and it was desirable tha: the pri-
vileges of the two Houses of Parliament might not be
broeght into collision. The present was recommended
to us, however, not from an apprehension of such a
collision, but on its own merits—(Hear, hear, from'
Lord Goderich.) I know the advantage which the
Noble Lord ntay be disposed to take of an admission
which he may suppose to weaken my argument, bat
as I have touched on the question of privileges, and
as it is one on which great misrepresentation has also
gone abroad, I must remark that the late Bill was
somewhat unaccountably sent up to this House as a Bill
of Supply, in which it is not permitted to us to make •
greater alteration than the correction of a verbal error.
N that Bill was to have an effect upon the duties, it
partook of this chat acter. This was an apparent did
Laity, which was easily removed, as may be shewn from
a case which is termed by lawyers " in purl notterie.-
In the Committee on the Canada Corn Bill in this House,
an amendment was carried against the opinion of the
Noble Lord (Lord Liverpoolowho then presided here, by
*filch amendment, according to the je.lous tenacity
with which the House maintains its privileges—the
Bill was formally lost. What was the course then
pursued? Though that Bill was lost, another Bill,
on the same subj ct, was introduced, in which the
amendment of the House of Lords was included, and
thus the difficulty of interfering with die privileges
of the other House was got over, and the Bill in
this amended shape passed both Hones of Parliament.
• Thus were the full powers of deliberation by this House
arrested—(Hear, hear). Was it necessary, therefore, on
she ground of privilege, that this Bill should be re-
jected? No. And, although knowtng this Amend-
ment to be formally inconsistent with the privileges of
the other House, I did not suppose it would have
necessarily occa.ioned the loss of the measure. I
assert, upon the honour of a Peer, that I did not
support that Amendment in the expectation or the
wish, that by its adoption the whole measure-should
be defeated. What had been done on a former oc-
casion might have been done in this; but I must
say, that besides the disadvantages in other mat
ters to which the calamity that has befallen a N. ble
Lord (Lord Liverpool) has suojected us, it is not the
lira of those disadvantages that his Majesty's Councils
should not be marked by the same discretion and the
same temper which distinguished them when he presided
over them." The Noble Lord proceeded to comment
again upon the amendment, which, whilst corn vas
now at 575. or 58s, would not probably come into open
radon at all—at least from the prospects of the ensuimgl
harvest, or from any probable or almost possible cit.'
cumstances that could occur, there was no likelihood
of the price reaching 665. certainly not for the nest
year; and until it had notched that price, the Amend-
ment was inoperative. Indeed, from all that was pro-
bable to occur, and from the late measures of inter-
ference with the state of our currency—measutes which,
though they afforded a temporary ease, only prepared
us for a future panic—it was much more likely tha;
corn would shortly be at 465. rather than 665. a quarter.
Alter having repeated that the difference between
the Noble Duke's Amendment and the opinions of the
treiident of the Board of Trade had been calum
Moistly mis-stated, and the consequences of that Amend.
sent, exaggerated by persons who owed their very
existence to the Noble Duke—he spoke not nose of
his emit military services, but of services of a different
kind—he proceeded :" I have little mote to say, after
having fulfilled the purpose for which I had risen—the
attempt to set myself right with the House and with
the Country as to the part I have taken upon this
sake ct; and, what is mote important, to vindicate the
character and upheld the propriety of the proceedings
of majority of this House. I support the Bill now be-
fore us, as I do not apprehend it will be detrimental to
the agricultural interests ; but should any such Bill, in
the ensuing Session, be presented to us, I do trust We
will resist it with moderation, with discretion, but
st the same time with firmness—(loud cheers)--not
for the hake of the agricultural interests, but for the'
sake of those interests that are bound np with and in-
separable from them. It may be that for that—the agri-
cultural interest.-.I entertain a partiality of which lam
not con•cious, but to which, from my situation, I ac-
knowledge I am liable to entertain ; but however that
may be, I do believe that in the landed interest is to be
leund, more than in any other, the deep-laid foundation
of the strength of the Constitution of this country, and,
therefore, to that interest, more than to any other, is it
the interest and the duty of this House to extend pro.
tection—due and fair protection ; for, beyond this, Goo
turbid that any interest should either expect or obtain
any protection whatever. I maintain that it is due to
that interest that this country should render itself as in-
dependent as possible of foreign supplies in corn ; and
that to all interests of the community, and to none more
than the commercial and manufacturing, is it essential
that as much of the land of this country as is capable
of it, should be brought into cultivation—(Hear,
hear, hear I) These ptinciples I shall maintain, re-
gardless that for maintaining them it may be un-
poly imputed to me that upholdl the interests of
the rich to the sacrifice of thos of the poor. The
most eager advocate of liberal principles cannot shake
the soundness of those principles which were so adrair-
sqy enforced in a letter of a Noble Lord (we believe
Lord Grenville), who, I trust, still maintains theta.
"If (laid that Noble Lord) they effect the thrown'
.open our ports to a free trade in corn, the effect will
be that of thiowing
a great part of our land out of
cultivation. and risking all the inconvenience of sod-

Is will be seen by our report tl•st night's proceed-
ings in the Lords that the Warehouse Corn Bill was read a second
time, without any opposition. and ordered to be committed this
day. The Corn Averages Bill was also read a third time, and
passed with a Clause, incorporated with it upon the motion If Lord

leg, as the Duke of Wasaleoton entered into a long vindicatloo ut
ids tote on the late Corn Bill. Burl Gast followed in thit.same
cootie; and their eipiaititlons are probably the winding up of the
deep interest ezdted by the dlttatesiona on this interesting topic.

A strong report iTe7amirs7ri the City, that Lord
CocHemsa has been taken by the Turks. We hope,
however, that there is not a word of truth in Ibis report ;
and fkel almost persuaded that the capture of our ga!•
lattt countryman is confounded with that of the steam-
boat Mentioned in our foreign intelligence.

We received thik morning the Algenteine Zeiler:lg to
the 20th instant. It contains no news from Greece,
but, in lieu thereof, furnishes us with some interesting
particulars relative to the late Polish conspiracy. The
fate of the conspirators, Is ho are 32 in number, is still
undecided, though the investigations have long since
terminated. The cause of this indecision is ascribed to,
the desire of the Emperor NICOLAS to lay the whole
proceedings before the European public; and, if this
account be correct, it is a fine commentary dpon the
character of that Ruler, as well as a striking illustration
of the mighty, force of public opini We here seethe
most powerful and despotic Monarch in Europe freely
submitting his own decisions upon an event too,
which,-had it succeeded, might have implicated his life,
to the revision of that leafless, imp trail, and incorrup-
tible tribunal. lie places himself also at its bar, before
he suffers his own proceedings to be carried into effect;
and, in this, his resolution is said to be unalterable, as
he has laid it down as a rule to observe the strict forms
nf law and justice in all his proceedings.
It would appear from the following account, that the
designs of the above conspirators to deliver their country
from Russian domination, however extravagant they
'might seem, were not altogether the effects of a giddy
love uf change :
" The depreciation In the prices of corn, and the aeration of
trade and commerce, are, of coarse, very sensibly felt in the king-
dam of Poland, as well as In other countries. We hope, however,
that through the English corn laws, however limited, some exports
-
tines will take place from Danttic ; for if the Berlin bushel of wheat
k odd at only two dollars, there will yet be some profit, on account
of the low freight from Danteic to England. The greater part of
the and imposts drawn from this Impoverished country Is ex-
pended in the support of the great military establishment. Forms*
Poland bad the advantage of supplying, from its southern provisos%
horses for the cavalry of the North of Europe : this, of course. VIM
derwent, a total change at the end of the last centne/r. Poland noes
so reduced in extent, is obliged to purchase almost all its honors
but even the Rusdan breeding of horses in the Ukraine and Vol.
laynia, formerly so profitable, is no longer what it was. It has bees
extremely Injured by the rigorous prohibition of selling of hones na'
foreign countries, issued by the Emperor Alexander titre years ago;
for the high prices formerly paid by foreign countries for the as.
perior racers and for cavalry Mints are now lOW, and the os-
couragement to breeding ►eing taken away, the landowners there
little inclination to attend to it. The Russian Government has
probably became sensible se this, and in this instance, as to
others, :the Infammiss 'fleets of the rigeroos system of prohibition
have Delano mere manifest. On the other hand, the Prussian studs
have doubled aid tripled within these few years, especially in the
kingdom of Prussia, which, by its extensive pastorates on the Vis-
tula and the sea coasts, is so peculiarly adapted to the breeding of
horses. The great Royal stud at Trekea has now 3,000 homy.
These are very noble animals. Many go to Poland and Russia, the
Prussian stark ►eing effaced by burning at the frontiers.

We also received this morning Frankfort Papers to
the same date as the former. They merely mention
that the reported meeting between the Emperor of
Smut and his father-in-law the King of Paouta,
appears tote given up for the present. It is further
stated that the latter Monarch will go this year to the
baths of Toplitz earlier than usual, and prolong his stay
there to a later pfriod of the year. The Empress
ALS:SANDRA, in like manner, expects her accoochement ;
and it is not likely, says the account, that the Empsaom
will go without her to meet the King of PRUSSIA. We
suppose, too, that the lively interest which Nicot..aa
takes in the fate of the poor Greeks has had some in-
fluence in altering his resolution ; and there is every
reason to hope that this sympathy will not be displayed
in vain.

In confirmation of our expectation we find that the
Paris Papers, which arrived last night, hold out strong
hopes, that the resolution of the Allied Powers to
terminate the sufferings of Greece will be immediately
carried into effect. If this can be brought about by the
free concessions of the Porte, so much the better ; but we
are glad to hear that the result is not left to the choice of
that Power alone. It appears certain that a powerful naval
armament, in the formation of which England, France,
and Russia concur, will be soon assembled in the Ar-
chipelago. Tis! Russian part of the expedition, con-
sisting of several ships of the line, is said to be already
on the way, and it is expected tb touch at some
English port in the course of a few days. The
cordial concurrence of so many great Powers in so
good an object, is one of the political phenomena
of our time; and we pity the narrow mind that would
mix op with this pleasing consideration the misgiv-
ings of vulgar and ignorant prejudice. The ap.
pearance of a Russian fleet in the Mediterranean
can only alarm blockheads, or afford room for
a knave to exercise his ingenuity at misrepre-
sentation; but to pretend that England, the mighty
Queen of the Ocein, with her innumerable ships and
countless seamen, to whom fear is absolutely a stranger,
and whose intrepidity is only exceeded by their skill—
has anything now or hereafter to apprehend from such
a circumstance—is one of those suppositions which only
excite laughter, from their gross and palpable extra-
vagance.

the 7th inst. positively state that the large body of

The Court of Chancery was this day again crowded

ties. On the LORD CHANCELLoIt t.king his seat,
Mr. naotrostast row and said, he had to move that
all proceedings before the Mister might be stayed in this
cause, which were now proceeding under an order of
the late Chancellor Eldon. the shciri grounds on which
the Learned Counsel moved were, that in the coarse of
the inquiry it might happen, that very painful sensa-
tions might be caused in the feelings of parties of the
highest rank, and who were nearly allied to the parties,
which it was the wish of Mr. Wellesley to obaiate.
Sir C. Wrrsteau.t. and his Learned Cislleagties con-
tended against the motion at considerable length ; at the
conclusion of which
The Loan CRANGELLOR gave Judgment. as follows :
That the children should still remain in the custody of
their ELMS; that no farther proceedings should be had
relative to the guardianship of the Duke of Wellington
and Colonel Wilson; and that,if say cause should arise,
the children, who are now wholly under the ectotruul of
the Court. may apply at any hour for relief.
The appeal cannot be heard until else neat Session of
Parliament, but it is intended to send the boys to Eton.
Leave was given to Mr. Wellesley to name a physi-
cian, who, if approved, is to 'be allowed to visit one of
the children, at present indisposed.
