LATEST FROM ENGLAND.
The ship New-York Capt Bennett
from Liverpool, arrived last evening,
bringing dates OF the 9th from London,
and the 7th from Liverpool. And this
morning the ship Coltes, Capt oPrague,
arrived from London, by which we
have received London dates to the 'th
inclusive.
MI. Canning's Badgek-Itisn not pre-
tended to be concealed by MIR. Canning,
that after twelve years peace, the ma
tional debt has been increased by a
considerable amount, and that the rev.
| enue falls short Of the expenditure by
900. OoOl. The deficiency is to be
supplied by another loan OF Exchequer
bills. The opening commerce OF South
America. and the operation Of more Ii
beral principles and policy on the con-
tinent of Europe, are looked to as the
sources which are to rescue the country
from its difficulties.
In The House of Lords on the LIST, the
Corn Bill was discussed in committee.
The Duke of Wellington moved an m
portant amendment, which was carried
by a majority of four, the numbers Tor
il being IS, against it "a.
The Times adds, "As the bill has still
several stages to go through, it remains
to be seen whether this amendment will
adhere to the bill. If it does, the bill
with its amendment will go to the Com.
mons, where, according to the rigid
practice 0 fthst branch of the legislature,
the whole bill will, probably, be at once
dismissed without any consideration, on
the high ground that the House O fLords
has no right to alter a money DILL

The Globe says, that the alteration
made in the Corn Bill in the House of
Lords on the first Of June, by which the
prices of grain in Ireland were required
to be included in striking the averages,
would reduce the average prlceiby
from IS. to 5s.; an alteration which would
erdanger the bill with the Commons, as
much as the Duke of Wellington's "a
mendment. Heretofore, the average
has been struck from the prices OF the
maritime counties of England.
The Sun suggests, that the Duke of
Wellington will soon repent of the
curse be has taken, on considering the
Inconsistency of his conduct. The ag-
ricultural interest it is said, will be en-
barrassed for another year, should the
Corn Bill be thrown outby this amend
ment. The motion was probably carri'
ed by surprise, fifty members being abb
sent.
On the 9th the Corn Laws bill was a
gain referred to a committee of the
whole House. The Lords to be spe-
cially summoned.
The bill annulling the marriage of
Miss Turner and + G.. Wakefield, pass
ed the House of Lords on he 9th, and
was likely to pass through the Commons
with rapidly, as MIR. Peel's suggestion
to admit the evidence taken before the
Lords, was acceded to. Great indisna-
ton was felt against the offender.
The tables of both houses of Parlia-
ment are crowded with petitions of Dis
senters for the abolition of the Test and
Corporation acts.
The Morning Herald, from being one
of the most liberaL9f the tory papers,
bordering, indeed, Ap2n whiggism, since
the elevation of ~ Canning has be-
come an ultra tory, and has assailed MIR.
C. at every step. The paper has an

ministry as benign contemplation:
Duke of Portland to be Premier and
First Lord of the Treasury.
Marquis of Lansdowne to be Home
Secretary.
Mr.. Sturges Bourne to be Chancellor

Mr.. Canning to return to Foreign Al
fairs.
Earl Carlisle to be Lord Lieutenant of
Ireland.
Yiscount Dudly and Ward to be Lord
Privy Seal.
There is some demur respecting Bar

Ireland.
