It will be seen by the extract which

The bill to admit warehoused corn
to entry, on payment of duty OF los.
per quarter, about % cents per bushel)
had passed the House Of Commons
1t was supported by Mr.. Huskisson,
who said,
That he entirely concurred with the
Hon. Baronet who had just spoken, that
the object Of the proposed measure was
to benefit the public generally, without
any reference to the loss or gain OF in
dividual spectators. With this view
he was disposed to adhere to the pro-
posed duty of los. because he was salts
fed that the imposition OF such duty
would not prevent the owner OF the
bonded corn from bringing it into the
market; and the reason was obvious, as
they would not run the risk of keeping
it until next harvest, when the ports
might be opened. Next, with respect
to the objection ofthe Honorable Mem
Der for Norfolk, that the exception in
favor of the Canada corn, would cause
an influx Of American Corn into this
country, he owned that he had no fear
of that kind. Experience had hitherto
proved, that there was no foundation
for any such apprehension; for in years
when British corn was so low as SOS.
quarter, there had never been m ore
than so, 900 quarters of Canada corn
imported into this country. There
could hardly be any great fear of the
blending of American corn, when it
was considered that the expense OF
transport to Canada alone amounted
to from Dos. to 25s. quarter. In or
der, however, to provide against the
inordinate introduction of American
corn, and TO remove all fears upon that
head, he was willing, should the aver
age of Canada corn imported into this
country within the next five years ex-
coed 100000 quarters, to introduce
some measure to prevent the evil which
the Hon. Member anticipated. He
knew that many imaginary fears had
prevailed upon the subject. Some gen
tlemcn were afraid that corn might be
transported from the Baltic to Quebec,
and thence to this country, and an Hon.
Member, whom he did not then see in
his place, the Member for Surrey MIR.

that immense quantities Of corn might
be conveyed down the Mississippi to
Canada. cloud laughter.) He hoped
the next time the Hon. Member deli
vered his sentiments upon this subject,
that he would make himself little bet
ter acquainted with geography, as he
would, in that case, see what little fear
there was Of corn being conveyed down
the Mississippi to Canada. Clear, and

With view however to allay appre-
tensions that seemed 10 exist, lest corn
so in England wheat is called) from
Canada, in favor of which an exception
is made, should serve as cover for the
introduction of wheat from the United
States, Mr.. Huskisson proposed a
clause by way of rider to the bill, by
which it was required that an attested
certificate of growth should be deliver
ed by the exporter from Canada pre-
vious to the shipment of corn. The
clause was agreed to, some verbal a.
mendments having been proposed.
The Catholic Relief Bill, which
passed the House of Commons on the
10th, by bare majority of 81, after a
renewed discussion, had been read once
in the House Of Lords. Tuesday, 18th
May,was appointed for its second read
ing. The next ship will bring the re-
suit, which however is hardly doubtful.
The bill can hardly prevail against the
bishops, the Chancellor, and the throne.
