The Canada Government Bill has passed, and the
circumstances connected with it are of a very re-
rarkable character. Sir x. Peel was favorable TO
the bill I; the Duke OF Wellington decidedly OPP
posed However, the Duke withdrew his opposi.
tion and eontented himself with entering protest
against it, 1t is understood that the noble Duke aban
doned his opposition to the bill in consequence of
fear that ministers would resign should it be lost

Our CONNIE srial affairs are just now in rather a
critical state and the greatest interest is felt as TO
the result &C the harvest. The weather has been
overcast for several days past and IL is understood
that considerable quantities Of continental corn have
recently been purchased, in anticipation Of the home
crops being deficient. The various exchanges have

this is more TO be ascrbed TO the caution OF Bankers
to prevent drain Of buon, than to any other ope-
rative cause.
