Since the sailing Of the last steamer there have
been TWO arrivals from America at Liverpool, the

| chants from operating so freely as they otherwise
/ would, till after the lsi of January, when il was
expected some large 81 sculatiOns would be entered
into. 1t is worthyof notice that the repeal Of the
navigation laws has rather improved than injured

| The political news from England is not Of much
Importance. Every thing is as dull as the season
4 itself.
Parliament will assemble for the dispatch of bust
ness, on the % Of February, when il is rumored
| that various political and commercial measnFes
will be brought before the Legislature. On the
subject of tie annexation Of Canada TO the United
States, the Morning Advertiser has the following
"Tbe Cabinet has under its consideration the
question Of a severance between the mother coun-
Try and her Canadian possessions. The conclusion
arrived at is, thai England would be no actual
loser were the CaDadas to carry their threats oil
separation into effect. The result of careful ex-
animation Of The Canadian connection, in all its
aspects, is, thai so far from England being a suf
ferer by the remuneration of their allegiance to the
British crown, on the part Of the Canadians, she
would be an actual gamer. 1t is a well ascertained
fact that the expenses of the connection have more
than counterbalanced its advantages. The main
tenance of that part Of our colonial possessions sub
jecs to yearly expenditure OF more than f300,
/ 900 in hard cash. Will any one tell us that the
this 1t may be, indeed, debated whether our ex-
ports to the Canadas would not be great as-they
have been at any former period Al any rate, we
speak advisedIy when we say that this country
will be no loser by the secession Of the Canadas.
That is certainly the conclusion at which the Min
istTy have arrived after the most able and careful
deliberalion. On that conclusion they have re-
solved to act When the session opens, we shall
the facts brought fully before the publie with
the grounds on which the Cabinet has come 10 the
| resolution. at which il has arrived"
A desperate, but futile effort, it is said, will be
made upon the opening Of Parliament to restore
. | portion of the old protective laws. Nobody, how
ever, seems concerned at the hostile appearance
D which the sayans of monopoly have assumed.
