SIX DAYS LATER FROM EUROPE

The Great Western, which left Liverpool on
the 18th inst, arrived in the lower bay about six
O'Clock this srmorning-making the trip in l3f
days-and at quarter past 9 I'VE had our payers
and letters, which were from London and Liver
pool TO the day of sailing.
The week that had elapsed since the departure
of the British Queen, like the week proceeding
it, the foreign arrivals have been few, and the
intelligence brought by them mcagrc and unln-
teresting. We seize upon the opportunity there
by afforded to us of presenting our readers with
complete and corrected transcript OF the new
British Tariff, which received the ROYAL assent
.-by commission the 9th inst, and is in
full and actipeoperaton. The measure passed
rapidly through the House of Lords, several
peers who dsapp-ovedo its principle and details
absentinp themselves rather than cnIbarrass the
: Government.
e.. An increase Of confidence on the part Of both
Z BUYERS and sellers is already observable, and we
: NAV predicta general revival of trade, though it
will, in all probability, be somewhat slow, on ac-
count of the very reduced condition of the opera
tive classes in the manufacturing districts. The
prices of provisions are falling in all the English
markets, and it is anticipated that there will
shortly be sufficient employment for the people
on more advantageous terms.
y Capitalists may also be expected to take pro-
duce on speculation 10 moderate extent, which
will relieve the markets, and enhance the value
of imports. The prospect Of an abundant harvest
will assist the change so anXously looked for in
the condition of the people. Our hope for the
gradual disappearance of the distress is justified
by the evidence to be adduccd of the resources
of the country, from the official account of import
ed articles consumed in the United Kingdom in
1881 and 1910.
T. In tea, even notwithstanding the dispute with
China there was a considerable increase
There have been several debates of considerable
length in both houses of the British Parliament
on the state of the country, the corn and poor
laws, but they have led to good result. and on
" checked the disposition to venture upon eX-
tensive trading transactions 1t is supposed that
a propagation will take place about the 18th or
10th of August, but the exact time cannot yet be
stated.
Sir Robert Peel has brought bill into the
House of commons for the better security OF
the royal person, and it was unanimously read a
first and second time on the same night. The
hill diyests such offences as those lately perpe-
trated of the dignity which accompanies treason,
and treats the prits more in their truer charac-
tiers, as rogues and vagabonds 1t provides for
the due punishment of those offences against the
royal person which amount to persecution and
annoyance, without being positively dangerous
such as pointing firearms at the Sovereign
dscharging them, or explosive or destructive
materials, near the person of the Sovereign, ol
throwing any substance at the Sovereign.
These offences are to be punished as larcenles;
but power is given to the judges to direct that
the convicts be liable to personal chastiscment
