The Cambria has arrived at Boston after
a shorter passage than could have beenex-
pected at this season Of the year. Her ad-
vices are most important. Throuqhnot lit.
tie exertion, and by having horses at the lake
end Of the railroad, I'VE are enabled TO lay
synopsis OF the important news before our
readers this morning.
And first of all Parliament had met and
Sir Robert Peel annouced the most sweeping
changes in the commercial policy Of Great
Britain. He urges that the corn laws should
be absolutely repealed after FEBRUARY lS49,
and in the meantime a new sliding scale is
proposed, which looks very complicated and
which We have not time to read through
but IFS mere sop 10 the landlords, and
so considered.
The Minister next proposes an immediate
change in the British tariff, which will admit
| Indian corn at once at a more nominal rate
of duty. Bacon, beef aud pork are to be ad-
mitted free. The duty on cheese, hams,
rice, tallOw and other articles Of American
produce have to come down to a Ve.y low
rate, il Sir Robert succeeds in carrying out
his policy. 1t is indeed gresl triumph for the
Free Trade, for which he warns all interest
TO prepare.
Nothing about Oregan, except that people
wish the difficulty out of the way. The pop.
ular voice is for free trade, and this occu.
pies every body.
The news is altogether pacific in its char
acter. The English are too much taken VI
with the crisis in their own affairs, aud tht
great changes which are proposed TO benef
the poor, to mind much about America.
The Queens speech upon the opening
of Parliament alludes 10 the difference witt
the United States, and speaks of them as
subject Of regret, witch she will endeavo
to run over by every effort consistent will

E in conjunction with the King of the Frencl
