On the Ist February, a virtual repeal ef the duties upon foreign corn took place, the existing sliding or fluctuating scale of duties being entirely abolished, and in their stead the following, mere! nominal and fixed duties, being leviable on all sorts ot meal, flour, and grain imported into this country, viz.: By virtue of the Act 9 and 10 Vic., cap. 23, from and after the Ist day of February, 1849, the following duties shall be charged, viz.: Upon all wheat, barley, bere or bigg, oats, rye, peas, and beans, the quarter, 1s.; upon all wheat, meal and flour, barley meal, oatmeal, rye meal and flour, pea meal and bean meal, the cwt., 4}d.; buckwheat, the quarter, 1s.; buck wheat meal, the cwt., 44d.; maize or Indian corn, the quarter, 1s.; Indian corn meal, the cwt, 44d. There is a rise of 1s, to 2s. per quarter. THE @RAND BANQUET AT MANCHESTER. A banquet, on a magnificent scale, ‘to inau- rate free trade,”’ was given at Manchester on ednesday, “*that being the day when expired the last shred of protective duties on foreign corn.” The Free-trade Hall, the place ot the festival, was decorated with taste and splendor for the occasion. The number of guests, admitted by ticket, was 2,984—700 ef them ladies: numbers paid a high premium for their admission, and a multitude ‘were disappointed of places. The hist of notable names, from all parts ot England, occupies more than the space of one of our columns, and includes some two dozen members of Parliament, and half a score of gentlemen lately members. Besides those names whose appearance is a matter of course, as that ot Mr. Charles Villiers, the name Mr. James Wileon may be mentioned for his official position, and that of Mr. Bickham Escott for the steady rise of his liberalism; there are also names of less ETOP URenCGs such as that of Colonel Salwey or Mr. Hardcastle, whose appearance among Manchester notables, we believe, has not been so much a matter of course. Letters ex- | sae are at compulsory absence were read ro} r. Joseph Hume, Mr. Wiliam Hutt, Mr. Horsman, Dr. Bowring with farewell good wishes, the Rev. Baptist Noe, Ebenezer Elliot, and Mr. Frederick Bastiat, of Paris. Mr. George Wilson presided. aoe Mr. Charles Villiers responded to the toast of “The Free-trade Members cf both houses of Par- jiament.”” 2 Mr. Cobden spoke with his usual energy, less than his usual novelty. We take a few points of his oration :— He was indignant when he saw “that other indi- ‘vidual,’ the Duke of Richmond, trying to hoodwink, gull, and bamboozle the farmers of Sussex—the county ‘where Mr. Cobden was born—and telling them that he ‘would talk to Lord John Russell about restoring pro- tee tion. That Duke sould not restore one shilling of “T tell his grace that it is of no use tion again. ing to men in power to talk about restoring the We are in power on the oor: .

At an instant or two before mid- might, some minsirels struck up Dr. song, “‘ There’s a good time comin, cloak struck twelve, the assembly rose their harras that Protection had ceased; and soon afterwards the meeting broke up. Next day, a large number of the most influential ests at the feast, held a meeting in Newall’s Buildings, for the purpose of originating a new “Financial Reform Association.” Mr. George Wilson of course presided. Mr. Cobden moved, and Mr. Bright seconded, a motion to found a society for maintaining an efficient care over the registration of voters in boroughs and counties, and ne increase of the county electors, by the multiplication of forty-shilling freeholds, ll be as under anything more than the nominal rule of Spain or her colonists. The few Indians on its prairies, and the few settlers on its coasts roamed and vegetated without any more appre- ciable supervision of a superior power than exists in New Guinea. When it was made ever by Mexico to the States, no Mexican had any more knowledge of its character or contents than of those of Asam or Labuan. As isp as trea- sures were still hidden, this state of things might have continued without any serious evil; but ua- der the circumstances lately disclosed, it becomes a matter of the greatest importance, aad, as it will he seen, of almost equal difficulty, to organize some efficient government in the province, and some protection tor life and property. Fi The Californian continent was conquered in the late war by a wing of an irregular corps, whose operations were obscured by the comparatively interesting campaigns of General Scott and Santa Anna. A military detachment was subsequently leit at San Francisce, as a symbol of occupation, and this, it was presuued, ould anffice until the settlement of the glavery question, acd some Others, should permit Congress to agre> upon a syetem of crganization for the provinve. But, wer @ brief show of resistance tothe torrent, these axthorities have now jomed the invaders in common quest ct plunder Governor Mason, with all his scicera, was, es tue latest intelligence intormed us, deep im the cirnps. Qolonel Ste- phenson had disbanded his regiment, and was camping outon the Sacramento. Captain Marcy, son of the Secretary at War, had “ set to serious washing in the area placer.” There was no offi- cer, and scarcely an inhabitant, at any part of the coast. Where ‘head quarters” might, be was altogether unknown ; but the most plausible con- jJecture seemed to point to a certain ** four-mule wagon travelling ever the gold region.” Nor did any amendment in this respect seem very likely. The commander-in-chiet of the Pacific squadron had reported, and not unreasonably, that “the had no hope of maintaining in California any naval or military establishment tor some years to come” — i, e., a8 We presume, until the sure operations of time and trade had Drought Caleninas and wages toa level again. The fact is, that the ties of a cipline and patriotism snap asunder in amoment, when an American is brought in presence of a substance of so superior affinity as gold. The mines act like thatgreat mountain of loadstene in the “Arabian Nights,” which, whenever a ship came within a certain distance, attracted all the nails from its sides with a tremendous noise, and left the unfortunate vessel to founder in fragments. Soldiers, sailors, officers, secretaries, and ser- vants, are drawn off to the “‘diggings,” as soon as ever they touch the land. By our last advices, a “governor and judges,” beund tor the new pro- vince, had already arrived at Chagres; but, as the same correspondence sensibly inquires, ** what wages must be given to make a man serve his country, when he can earn $100 a day on his own hook ?”” ‘There seems to be no doubt about the reality of the reports, though we are, to be sure, informed in the same despatches that the manutaature of arti- ficial gold tor exportation to Calitornia, was car- ried on tc a great extent in New York and Con- necticut. Still, this considerate provision can have hardly taken much effect as yet, and the yield must be mostly genuiue. The modes of explora- tion in this land of wealth, vary according to the tastes of the operatives. Plodding old stagers grub on steadily in the sand, and wash their scrapings inatinpan. The more lazy ones, “roll about and pick up the big bits, leaving the smaller pieces for the next immigration.” Some fine dashing fel- lows, on blood horses, career over the recks with bowie knives, at full speed, and “gouge” out the fold from the crevices with a twist which practice as made familiar. The “dust,” when collected, 18 packed in bags ot cow hide, carried to the port, and put on board vessels tor exportation. At this int of the process, however, there is a serious hitch. The vesseis are all without crews, and the gold, theretore, remains in pees boat loads; nor ig it ately to move off until a whole ship’s com- pany are found surteited with the fruit ot the dig- gings. Asto the climate, disease rather than mor- tality 18 said to prevail, and most people compound for an intermittent fever through five moaths of the year. Law there is nose, nor government, nor police; but our brethren across the Atlantic have a nack of extemporizing these requisites, and the passions in California are pretty well concentrated. Besides, where 1t 1s easier to dig than to rob, even Jonathan Wild would have given over thieving. We are anticipated in avy speculations upon the “European results” of this great discovery, by some reflections which will be found in another cokamn, conceived, ap the author thinks, in a spirit of “sobriety, religion, and quietade.” It will be tume enough to calculate the market value of gold when the £108,000,000 sterling arrives annually at Liverpool in the galleona of tas republi>. There ere some old stores to be cleared off first, anda tolerable percentage to be deducted afterwards; but what 18 of greater conseqnence to vs, it 18 plain that whether gold falls or not, produce cf all kinds has alreauy risen. The acuvity cuusequent on the enterprise, has sensibly raised the value of agni- cultural and manufacturing products. Breadstutls and calicoes alike command higher prices than before; and though the mamia will probably end in the ruin of many, and the disappointment of more, it can hardly be without its beneficial effects on the colonization cf the New World, and the com- merce of the old. [From the London Chronicle, Feb. 7.] Hotter and hotter, faster and faster, hurrying on- wards in greedier and more breathless haste, pell- mell, helter-skelter, Ces the throng of gold seekers to the distant El Dorado ot the Pacific Ocean. From Oregon, from Lower California, from the Sandwich Islands, from every seaport in the Union, flock all who can muster up enbugh to pur chase a spade and a tin pan, and who think it worth while to earn, by not very distressing labor, a hun- dred dollars a day. The news gains interest with every fresh report; the predictions of unbounded wealth plow with a rosier brilliancy. Larger and larger shine the lumps of virfin gold in the cre- vices otf the rocks; the precious spangles glitter more and more profusely inthe sand. “Some,” we are told, ‘‘work in the sand by washing trom the surface 1n a wooden bowl or pan; some gouge it out from rocks or slate; the more lazy ones roll about and(pick up the large pieces, leaving the small gold for the next emigration.” He who by this sort of work gains less than 100 ounces troy weight in a morth, straightway ‘‘prospects,” or looks out for more productive digging. ‘Oa one occasion,” says the correspondent of the New York Herald, “nooning or refreshing on the side of a stream entirely unknown to diggers or ‘prospectors,’ or, rather, if known, not attended to, one of my com- panions, in roliing in the sand, said, ‘Give me a un pan; why should we not be cooking in gold sends?’ He took a pan, filled it with sand, wash- ed it out, and produeed in five minutes two or three dollars’ worth of gold, raerely saying, as he threw both pan and gola on the sund, ‘i thought so.” Where the lightest work 1# £0 profitable, we are uot gurprised to hear that go litve tine is sastificed to the amenities of lie. “As to shav- ing, 1 have never seen a inan at the plucer who had time to pertorm that operation.” In this Elysium of the Birraingham economists nothing is cheap but gold. Doctors’ bills are paid in pounds of specie—for the gelden age has its alloy in the fact that one half of the diggers are always laid up with ague or intermittent fever. As to washerwomen, they are for the most part dispens- ed with, on account of the exorbitancy of their charges—an instructive circumstance, which in- duces us to suggest that, when our Speoner shall be King, and all the half-pence in Eagland shall be changed into £5 notes, it may be advisable, a pony measure, to confine the exactions that useful but too rapacious class ot females with- in the limit of a statutory maximum.

One fine morning last September we ealled the attention of our readers to the strange results which might be expected from the sudden admis- sion ot thousands ot the hungriest, most inquisi- tive, and most indomitable adventurers in the world to the unfathomable stores of a vast unex- plored region. By adopting Cobbett’s interpreta- tion of prophecies, we might take credit for having preaicted no inconsiderable portion of the won- ders which we now announce, but we are free to confess, that although we did compare the Ameri- cans in Califorma to a British Association in Ja- pan, we were not altogether prepared tor such a report of their transactions as we yesterday pre- tented to the public. J Our advertising columns will have sufficiently shown that the rage for [Pi aaltaty has not been limited to the New World; but we have reason to suppose that very indefinite conceptions are enter- tained respecting the circumstances and condition of the country eo strangely introduced to popularity and renown. At this moment the golden treasures seem practically to belong to the finder. Any im- po a from any quarter, possessed of a pickaxe and @ shovel, is apparently at liberty to pocket all purchase, like the treasure-finder, who, turn- ing over the soil of his newly purchased acres, throws up a crock of gold. A twenty years lease of the patch of ground which comprises the val- leys watered by the San Joaquin and Sacramento, would fetch, in George Robins’s auction room, more than enough to reimburse the price paid for the tee-simple of the whole tract of which it forms 80 insignigcant a part. The Yankee buyer little knew, when he closed his bat fun, that he was purchasing af inheritance which might enable him to cheapen the circulating medium in the markets ot the world, and perhaps to beat out of the trade the Imperial gold merchant of the East, whose article, extracted with greater labor, yields a less ample profit on the cost of production. The Mex- icang, on their side, must feel some mortification at discovering, too late, the value of the province which they bartered for the blessings of Peace and around sum of American dollars. But for them wefeel no compassion. The source of profit was ane and obvious then, as in the days when Drake picked up a handful of earth, and noted, as iterumbled in hie fingers, the shining particles which betrayed the riches of the goil. ache coun- trymen of Cortes, more lazy and apathetic than the gold which his diggings may produce.

But this lucky windfall, whilst 1t enriches the \ individual seekers, has conferred, as yet, no pro- portionate advantage upon the States. Wealth thus acquired, as it were by chance, and scattered over the eurface of tae earth go pi as to require neither skill nor labor for its collection, as it is the legitimate property of the State, ought likewise to contribute largely to the public exchequer. There is no source trom which the national purse can more fairly be supplied than that of treasure trove. To turn these golden streams into the reservoir acantily replenished by the produce of the taxes, interferes with no branch of manufacture or trade, and cramps no effort of productive industry. Nor ia the gross profit derived by the community from such a prize, when left to be scrambled for by pri- vate enterprise, at all commensurate with that reaped by the individual adventurers. Money uickly got 18 quickly spent. It is not by large ortunes swept up at a single haul, but by the aecu- mulation of small profits, hardly earned, thriftily usbanded, and employed by men able to enhance their value by their personal skill and labor, that the productive capital of a nation is increased. Thus the cotton manufacture of England grew, like a coral bank, not by capital borrowed trom without, but by the carefully invested gains of the manufacturers themselves. Of the gold col- lected on the Sacramento, the bulk will find its way to Regent street and Ludgate hill, without having fructfied im a due proportion in the hands of its opminal owners, The levy of @ royalty, such as to leave an ample but not exorbitant profit to the SeCUNeTs would have given the State its share of the booty, and at the same time have imposed a salutary restriction on the flow of the humaa tide which, now rushing unchecked to California, sit oem ames acans, s . amountea to 7,850 bales, of “eg dling 43{ 04, end Lng «| of which 20,000 was taken on speculation and 2,200 for export, and this week's snlen are 61,120, of which speculators have taken 19.500 end exporters 6.100 bales.

Fashions for February. [From the Magazine of Fashion.} ‘The last few weeks have not been very produotive of novelty in the werid of fashion. For coiffures, black Jace is at the peeaens moment very recherohé, the fapchon style being the most adopted; barbes of black and white lace are also used, reaching very little lower tham the ears, and fastened with light flowers, inter- mixed with long blades of grass and foliage, so alry that they resemble teathers. ‘I'he small caps, trimmed with flowers, either pointed im the front orin the Mary Stuart style, are almost the only dress coiffures at pre- tent worn, but it is expected that turbans and small wreaths will again become fashionable. All the bon- netsare of black or dark-colored velvets, and lined with white ratin, either quilted and wadded or plain; those for morning dress must be but little trimmed, and even. then with velvet only; no flowers or feathers. A fail of black lace is worn with them. The most elegant capctes are of quilted and wadded eatin, lined with white satin—the eame for all colors; they are simply trimmed with jbbon crossed, or with narrow terry velvet of the same color as the satin. We have this week seen some in most charming taste; one of pearl- grey, trimmed with an English lace sewn round the edge of the front, and another in the same style. of akyblue color; but these were bonnets for demi- toilette. In proportion as tl morining coiffares are rim- le, se are those for visits elegant and recherche ‘or Mming Jarge cloaks, squicril recherché ; but ior the edging of | pardessus sable is preferred. Grebe, th reflets argentes, is frequently employed for evening drees; but, as we bave often said before, ne is, that diamonds will be much worn at the fetes, princi- pally mixed with flowers in the head-dreas, and in the nude and egrafes cf the corrage. Bracelets are still in favor, nnd are worn larger than ever; several are worn on the same arm; but in no casetwo alike. They are placed above the long gloves, which, despite their Dame, are worn very short. Brooches and bracelets of rose colored and biue enamel, set in fine pearls or bril- iant marquisites, are much in vogue.

[From the London Mercantile Gazette, Feb. 9.) The immediate effect ot the introduction of fr temporary impetus to the grain tra advance of # few rhillings per quarter in heat. Buyers of every class, from the all dealer, the baker, &¢., had for been waiting for the liberation of the bonded corn, and could no longer defer purchasing. Rather an extensive demand wasconsequently created, and for a rhort time there was an appearance of activity, which led the sanguine to progoosticate a material rise. In this view we did not and do not agree. The quantity of foreign breadstufis here is toolarge, and the prospect of supplies from abroad too certain, to allow us to reckon with any confidence on more remunerating prices for agricultural produce. The purchases made during the autumn at the Black Sea, the Azoff, and the Mediterra- Dean porte, are now ooming forward; when there cease we shall begin to have arrivals from the nearcontinental ports, and subsequently from the Baltic. The wich- | drawal of all buta nominal duty must have the effect of drawing supplics to this country, and we regard the future, as fur as the British farmer's interest is con- cerned. with great distrust, There are already ap- pearances of a reaction, and we question whether the slight improvement established will be long maintained unless something unforeseen should occur to'give a frech impetus to business.

The Foreign News, The steamship Europa arrived at this port yes- terday morning, and brought to us our regular files of English, French, German and other exchanges, and a batch of correspondence from all the Euro- pean capitals. The details of the news will be found in to-day’s paper, as well as a few of our letters. We shall publish the remainder from day to day, as readily as we can make roem for them. Caurrornia—Trounie Aukap.—We trust and hope that, late as it is in the session, Congress will yet de something towards giving a goverament to Calitornia, and preventing the terrible scenes ot anarchy and bloodshed which are certain of taking place m that country, unless something ot the kind be done. If it be done at all, 1t must be done quickly, or the opportunity will be lost until next December, and, in the meantime, hun- dreds of valuable lives may be sacrificed. The whigs in Congress are acting most strangely in this matter. They are about coming into power, for the first time 1n a great number of years, and they are shaping their course so as to make it almost imperative on General Taylor to convene an extra session. California eannot re. mam as it is till December. Before that month arrives, there will probably be a hundred or ahun- dred and fifty thousand persons there, compoged of people trom every nation in the world, with no law to guide them, and no safety for life or property,bug the rifle and bowie knife. If the scenes which we have frequently referred to as likely to take place there, should occur, the new President would, no doubt, consider it his duty to convene Congress, and impress on it the necessity of put- ting anend to them. Then will not be the time to discuss the abstract question of slavery. Bu; what shall be said of men who will, with the fear of these things before their eyes, and with the likeli- hood ot their occurring at any time, fritter away their time in useless debate, that can have no effect but that of exciting sectional pre- judices and making the dissolution of the Union an ordinary topic of conversation? Extra sessions of Congress never will be popular with the people of the United States, and are always hazardous undertakings. The whigs are about entering on a grand experiment. They are about to test whether they have the ability to conduct the go- vernment of this country successfully; and if they commence the experiment with an extra session, they will do so at a great disadvantage. We look tor trouble in California at an early day. General Smith, who has been ordered to the Pacific station, and 1s now on his way thither, has igsued a proclamation warning foieigners from trespassing on the lands of the United States in that quarter, and cautioning those who are flock- ing from all partsto search for gold there, that their conduct is in violation of law, and that he will put the law in force 1mmediately on his arri- val there. We do not see, very clearly, how he can carry this threat into execution, in conse- quence of the difficulty of maintaining disci) in his troops and preventing them from flockin the mines. lf, however, he should make the tempt, it 18 easy to tell what will follow. A war of races will be excited. The thousands of emi. grants now on their way to the gold region, will try to drive the foreigners away; and in the conflict that will ensue, a great deal of blood will be shed» and a great many lives lost. This state of things, however, 18 likely to occur, whether Gen. Smith should attempt to carry out what he threatens, or not. There is another important consideration con- nected with this subject, and that is, the danger which exists of the inhabitants of California de- claring themselves an independent people. By the accounts which we have received from Europe by the last steamship, we learn that the excite. ment throughout that region, or the gold fever, as itis termed, 19 a8 great as it is inthe United States. Books of California, and guides to Cali- fornia, are published trom day to day, and gold- washing machines are abundant, Companies and expeditions are algo being fitted up in great num- bers. Itis evident that a great many of those peo- ple would very willingly lend their aid in carrying out a scheme of making Californnia a separate and independent nation; for their prejudices will be sgainst republicanism and in favor of institu, tions similar t0 those under which they always lived. There 1s every inducement to attempt @ scheme like this. The soil and climate ot Cali- fornia are excellent, and it embraces all the ad- vantages that could be desired in a commercial point of view, for it possesses one of the noblest harbors in the world, which will, sooner or later, be filled with the ships of all commercial nations. I, such a state of things as this occurred, what a beautiful predieament would not the government of the United States be in! What an andertakiag would it not be to re-conquer the country, and re. establish the power and authority of the United States over it! But this may or may not take place. Of one thing we may, however, be certain. [f there be no government established there soon, fearful scenes will be enacted. Americans who fought and bled for that territory—who were taxed to support the war by which it was acquired—who have left their homes and associations on the Atlantic, and travelled thousands of mules in search of the wealth with whieh it abounds, will not tolerate, if they can prevent it, foreigners and adventurers. from every country in Europe, stepping in an equally enjoying with them the wealth of that country. Collisions will soon take place between them, and blood will surely fow. News rrom St. Txomas.—Our accounts from St. Thomas are of the 31st ult.

Vary Late rom THe Berrian West Invies.—" By the steamer Oppray, at Halifax, from Bermuda, we have papers from most of the British West In. dia Islands, from which we glean the tollowing ‘The Ospray left Bermuda on the 16th inst. The yellow fever, we regret to observe, has re appeared at St. Ann’s garrison, Barbados. In fix: months, ninety-two persons have tallen victims t: this disease. Fifteen sergeants of the 72d regi ment have died since that regiment left Gibraltar ayearago, Sugar making had commenced, an the crop is said to be unusually good. The Portuguese immigrants, recently arrived a St. Vincents, are leaving for the neghborin, islands ag fast as they can get away. One hundre, left within the week ending Jan. 25th, and other were to leave soon for Madeira. A severe shock of an earthquake was felt at Do minico, Jan. 23d. Some dwellings were injured but no lives were lost. At Demarare, the weather has been favorable fo the canes, and the sugar crop promises to be abun dant on the estates that have been keptin opere tion. The appointment of Mr. Barkly, as Governor o British Guiana, has excited much speculation 1 4 the tolony, as to the instructions of the home ge vernment. Some regard it as a eoncession, an the hope is enterteined that he will come out ex powered to grant such relief as will save the cous try from otherwise utter ruin. Several murders have recently been committe at noon-day, on the public roads leading from th town. The British brig Standard, Resey, from Demt Tara, bound to England, was lost at Martinique on the night of December 30, and eight of th crew, including the master, his brother, aad tw passengers, perishe2.

It was supposed that the subje, would have been disposed of at the last meetir of the society, which was held on Wednesd: evening last; but no conclusion was arrived at. } order to get rid of the vexed matter, a resolutic ¢ was offered, to the effect,that in the absence of su ” fictent knowledge on the subject, it 18 inexpedie to decide the question by a formal vote. Now, we cannot see how a formal vote of tho: savans could decide whether the cholera was co tagious or not; and in the abseace of sufficie — knowledge on the subject, we think it strange th they should enter on the discussion at all. W fear that this, like the other problems of the ag such as, ‘ Will salt retre explode 2” ** Who struc Billy Patterson ?” &c., will, as far as the Acaden is concerned, be a questio vexeta for some time come The discussion has been very Pickwickie throvghout.
