to the Canadas, London editor re-
marks" The proximity of the United
States, influences the price OF labor IN
Canada, and no system with respect to
future grants of land, can have the effect

measure, determine the price OF future
grants" .
We understand that the liabilities Of
Mr.. Raikes, the late Governor Of the
Bank of England, do not exceed $780,

these lands from tithes, would confer on
them. lie would compensate the lay impro-
priators and the benefced clergymen. We
sec no possible objection to his propositlon.-I
Tthes cannot last. They will not last
through the next session and ifOConnell is
the instrument of aholishing them, his would
be the proudest boast, any patriot could ever
make-that he obtained Catholic emancipa-
tion-that he abolished Tithes
France.-Our French news principal

Spain.-The war, or rather the butch
cry, between the government and Car

with no definitve results in the northern
parts of Spain. 1t is evident that both
parties are feeble in force, but mutually
