THE PRESS THB DUKE OV BUCKINGHAM AND THE PEASANTRY. ll thai amendment had been carried. But the motion to adjourn could not have been carried, for the rule: of the house was, that they could not put two successive amendments without tbe intervention of some other motion hear, hear, and cheers. It would have been secei' sary to raised a new debate, and to make the motion a second rime. If ihc mo" iun had been made a spcond time, they would have been in the same predicament ihey were before, with a Urge adverse majority and even if they had carried the adjournment of the debate it would have been put off, not till Monday, but to some more distant day.

Under those circumstances, it being clear that the motion must be put OlT to such distant day that it would ultimately Lave been adjourned till after Easter, it appeared to bim (Mr. Warburtun) tbat it would be proper to put tbe thing in such a way as to nrevent a division taking place last night hear, hear. Nothing else could have heen done with such a large party as they had opposed to them.

Should the reports which have been current for some daysthat the trade with the Americans hits been suspended as well as that with toe British merchants the. value of teas will rally. The deliveries of tea latterly have been short, principally in consequence of a genrra) indisposition shown by the trale to increase their stock. The official returns of the deliveries in the united kingdom from the 1st of January up to the 3th allow that but 5,010.

It appears, by tbe information which has reached us to day from America, that some further diplomatic correspondence has taken place between tbe British Minister at Washington, and Mr. Forsyth, the Minister of Foreign A flairs of tbe United States, on the subject of the boundary question.

He thinks Jt, a week for a peaiant'i family such good payment, that he wonders, even with tbe present price of bread, how the peasant can possibly have any complaint against laws which have raised bread to this price, and havegiven the peasant such wages to purchase it. Cannot the peasantry cannot the farmers see in this wonder the amount ot real interest which the noble Duke takes in their welfare, and tbe amount of benefit which they derive from those lawa that (of course for no one's advantage but theirs) desires to retain. An ordinary person, who itfa things by the lights of fairness and common same, would have -uttered no such expression of wonder, for he could not have felt it, But then the noble Duke ia an uncommon a vrry uncommon per. rm mid the more su, since, entertaining such icrlinga as be must mltrtain tu havegiven birth to such an expression, he can still tif himself that he can make the farmers and peasantry believe thai he is tbeir friend. To us who judge things by rules not io extraordinary as these which appear to be favourites with his Grace, tl seems that his expression of wonder exhibits not only an indifference to the welfare of any class except that to which hit Grace longs, but a certain amount of scornful reproof to the peasantry that against any circumstances which his Grace thinks advantageous, they should venture to offer a complaint.

He does not deny that wages are, in fact, bigber tban the amount stated; lie thinks them sufficiently large, nay, more than sufficiently large, since he cunuot imagine tbat with such wages there should be any com-plaint un the part of the peasantry. The expression admits what bifc, been so often denied by the advocates of tbe Corn Laws it admits that tbe peasant's wages do not rise in proportion to the rise ia the price of his bread nay, it teems to indicate that they nead not rite and it certainty implies on tbe part of the noble Duke an opinion that the peasant, when bis wages will procure him bread, oubt to be content, even though he cannot get anything else. We have treated this expression as the undoubted expression of the Noble Duke. It ia true that after being censured tor the nee of it, ha denied having ued it he said, I am represented as having ex. pressed myself fully satisfied that the labourers were well paid at nine shillings a week.

That is not my opinion, nor have 1 so stated it. 1 never did express tnyarlf as well satisfied with that payment." But what ays the Morning Chronicle reporter He says in a letter to the editor, 41 I affirm, most distinctly, the perfect accuracy of the report thus aod he quotes the other reports iu the Tost and Tiroes, to show that hia account waa correct, aod tbat though some expressed tha meaning in different all agreed as to the meaning of the Noble Duke's observation.

After this the peasantry and farmers (for the interest of the two the same) may, if they please, give the Duke of Buckingham credit for labouring for their advantage alone, and they maj, if they think that high rents, small profits, and low wages, are good for others besides the landlord, but if they do believe these things, tbay must be gifted with an extraordinary degree ef credulity.

A letter from Toulon, published in the same paper, stales that, notwithstanding the immense mmount of the army under Marshall Valee, in Africa, he was not able to detach any to the succour of Oran, and that in consequence the tith regiment of Light Infantry, in garrison at Toulon, tbe lat of tbe Line, stationed at Marseille, and the at Perpienan, had been ordered to hold themselves lot readiness to embark for Oran.

Another topic which is likely to excite the angry feelings of tbe Americans is the expectation entertained on the other side of the Atlantic, that Great Britain will blockade the port of Canton. Some violent language had been made use of against any such step being allowed by the government of the United States. Tbe right of England to blockade Canton is denied. A question bad been asked in the House of Representatives if tbe government of the United States intended to make common cause with Great Britain in reference to recent events in China to which the Foreign Secretary replied, that it was far from the fact that tbe Executive intended to make common cause with England against China tbat the subject had been referred to a committee tbat they objected entirely to appear as acting in concert with tbe Britiib.

In the markets of St. John's there was a universal depression, owing to tbe scarcity of money, and those who Uud stocks of goods could not realize them. The season in fact had never been so dull. The political news from Canada is not of the least importance. Commercial affairs at Kingston were becoming very active but, owing to the early breaking up of the snow, not more tlian one-third of the timber cut would, it was feared, be brought to market, and many of the lumberers would in consequence sustain ecvere losses.

There was still some drain of specie from the lower province by the Americans, in payment for their produce. Tbe spring trade was expected to begin earlier tban usual. Advices from Bermuda Btute that the law-officers of the Crown had decided that tbe American government could claim compensation for the slaves taken on board the Comet ami Encomium, but not for those which were on board the Enterprise. This was a most heavy day among tht: commercial classes, it being the 4th of the month. Tbe result of cur inquiries is, that the vatt amount of bills which arrived at maturity to-day were honoured to a far greater exient than hud been In several of the principal watka of the London bunking firms tbe non-payment of bills presented by the employees of those establishments were exceedingly 1 rare.

This is at leait an indication that the mercantile and trading classes are in a sound, though, it must be admitted, depressed condition at present. The favourable reports which were current this afternoon, relative to i the receipts of the revenue fur tbe quarter now about to close, had but little influence upon the quotation of the public securities to-day. Con- sols for money were quoted throughout tbe day at 1M)" g. As to specu- lattve bargains, it would appear that the jobbers have entirely closed i their books. It is a t'myntar fact, that not one bargain was effecicd in Consols for the next ccttlement throughout the whole day.

We believe we state with conhMence, that for at least 'JO years if our rrcollection be correct not a day has elapsed within that period when at least one quotation was established fur Consols in time bargains. During the whole of this day, however, not a single peculation was entered into in time bargains for the next settle-mmt. There are no complaints at present of a Kcarcity of money.
