The Spanish Cortes assembled on the
18th December. The Queens speech
gives assurance of tranquility.
The Message was received at Liver
pool on the 23d Dec, Wilmer s. Smith
by special steamer received the news
90 miles distant, and upon its arrival
expressed il 10 London in 6 hours.
The assumption of power by Lord
John Russell was almos, Immediately
followed by its abandonment, aud by
the re-installation of Sir Robert Peel.
Russell was authorized to form a
Ministry and made the attempt, but
failed through disagreement among his
personal friends. Lord Grey refusing
to enter the Cabinet ii PalmerSton was
10 be Secretary of Foreign Affairs.
When Russell threw up. he sent Tor
Peel, who evinced but little hesitation
in resuming his old olfice-whose re-
sumption of power Immediately made
itself felt in every branch of trade. -
Confidence, which had been shattered
by The railway panic. became paral-
yzsd when il was known that Peel wa.
out the markets fell, the funds sunk
business was suspended, and a gloom. 4
mist hung over the commercial and
trading world.
Every Jay since the resumption o
5ower by she former Premier, ha,
shown improved symptoms in the pro
duce, money aud other markets, al
though the future policy Of the Minis
try is in doubt, il being roundly as
serted that the reconstruction OF III,
Cabinet involved a compromise, in
stead Of tota! repeal OF the Corr
Laws, which the Wings showed thci
incapacity TO carry.

leagues: that instead Of a total repeal
Of the Corn Laws, which tie wttigs
showed their incapaci.y to carry, Sir
Robert is to propose q fixed duty of
les, or Is, per quarter-thc figures
have wide margin in the mouth of
Madam Rumor be decreased by a
SHILLING or two shilings per annum,
until it expires in the course of six or
ten years as the case may be- Others
say that a permanent duty of three
shillings per quarter, with compensa-
ton to the land holder, enters into the
new policy. All this is so purely con-
jectural. that we mention 1t as a proof
Of the absence Of correct information
and of the diversity of opinion that
prevails. Nothing definite, will, in all
probability, be known untilthe meet
ing of Parliament.
Some of the English papers contin-
ne to assert that the extensive war
preparations now making throughout
the kingdom are merely precautionary,
and intended only to guard against the
possibly of war with France. When
all the new works are completed, the
English coast will be in better condi-
ton than those of France.
Upwards Of one thousand. men are
now employed in the dock yards at
Deptford, and all the works therein are
proceed ding with the greatest rapidiiy.
The buoyancy Of the produce mar
ket Immediately upon the reinstatc-
ment of the Peel Ministry, gave way
almost Immediately in consequence of
the heavy shipments from America, in
fluencing prices, and the market is dull
aud stationary.
