In the House of Lords last night, the Duke of WiCL-
ansomx gave notice that on Friday nest be would introduce certain
measures relative to the Corn Laws. The Marquis of Laasoown,

In presenting a number of Petitions against the Corporation and
Test Acts, stated his willingness to agree to the declaration proposed
in the House .f Commoos by Mr. Pm, in order that others might
be Induced to advocate the measure. Lord STILANGWORD asked Earl
Dinner whether any attempt bad been made by Ministers to put an
end to the unfeeling warfare between Brazil and Buenos Ayres ?
Rarl DUDI.Cf said ao pains bad been spared with that view; and be
entertained strong hopes, strengthened by the inWiligence last re-
ceived, that they would be successful. Lord Smiler roan observed
II that England was stated to have called the South American States
into existence; but as they had swindled us out of twenty-two
minima, we bad little reason for pride in the production ; his Lord-
ship added the important fact, that upwards of a million and a half
la value of British goods were ready to be exported from this coun-
try to Brea, but withheld from fear of capture by oue or other of
the hostile parties; and that the sum of £4,000,000 sterling in
eitecie, was waiting to be shipped from Rio de Janeiro to Great
Britain, but that the merchants were from the same cause afraid to
risk the loss of it. The Marquis of Lower:essay, alluding to Por.
fugal, contended that the expedition to that kingdom was the most
unfortunate ever undertaken ; and had left to the Duke of W
at-
trxosox such a legacy, as no Statesman ever inherited before.
In the Commons, the Liverpool and Manchester
Railway Bill was read a third time and passed. Mr. Hume, in
presenting a Petition against the Vestry Act, complained of the
additional Inuthen which it imposed upon the Romao Catholics.
The Cuartesawa of the - &cutout& denied that it had any such
effect. Sit J. Nrrwroa: declared the Act to be highly oppressive.
After some more cooversation, the Petition was received and
ordered to be printed. Mr. Evisa, in a speech of great length and
variety, brought forward his motion for leave to introduce a Bill
abolishing the penalties of wearing ribbons at elections. Colonel
Worm. seconded the motion. Mr. Bruno Rica opposed it. The
Act in question had made elections more free than before, for it
bad lessened the expense of them. Lord Lowcuza also opposed;
the motion. Mr. Frcza said the House was actuated by nothing '
but " self." On a division the motion was lost, there beipg nine
for and 91 against it.—Mr. Secretary Lassa obtained leave to in-
troduce a Bill to regulate the offices of Sheriff and Under Sheriff
in Ireland.—On the motion far committing the Passengers' Regu-
lation Bill. Sir H. PARDIELL wished it to be postponed : it was con-
sidered injurious to the Shipping Interests, and would raise the
`charge of Emigrating from forty shillings to six or seven pounds—
mad thee stop Emigration from Ireland altogether. Mr. Alderman
Thompson was bound on every principle of humanity to support
the Bill. Mre Warms:on thought the Hon. Secretary bad carried
his regulations too far. Mr. Huszneox said he had used every
means to ascertain the minimum of space and water. The Cuan-
elmos of the Elcasraceri contended that this was no new measure;
a Bill similar to it was introduced in 1803. The Bill was then
committed, and the Report ordered to be received on Monday.
The motion for recommitting the Salmon Fishery Bill was nega-
tived, and the Bill lost by 54 to 25.

The French Papers of the 19th inst. which were re-
ceived last night, are entirely silent regaiding the hostile
movements of Russia, or the measures taken by Turkey
to repel the invaders. They inform us that the military
preparations •fint an expedition from Toulon, destined
either for Greece or Algiers, are continued without in•
