March 30, 1852, ‘The royal wail steamship Canada, Captain Lang, ar rived here, this morning, at half-past sevon o'clock with Liverpool and London dates to March 20th, She brings sixty-three passengers, £15,090 specie, and a large amount of freight, Sho left here at a quarter betore nine o'olock, for Bos- ton, where she will be duo about five o'clock to-morrow afternoon. On the + of March tho Caneda oxchanged signals wich the steamer Africa, from Now York for Liverpool.

He repudiated a factious opporition, and declared he had no dosire to return to the !aw of 1846, nor a wish to recur to the law of 1842, igated the proceedings of the Anti-Corn Law Leaguo—implored their lordships to appiy them. selves. not to (he renewal of free trade. but to sach mali- fications of the system as would mitigate the blow infliet- ed on tho agricultural portion of the community, and al- leviate the injustice from which they sutYored.’ He ox- pressed the opinion, that in regard to those who had suffered from the changes mado, and being left without a corresponding slteration in the expenditures thrown upon | them, the moderate imposition of a duty, producing a | Inge revenue, thereby enabling other taxation to be tuken off, with hardly an appreciable effect on the food of the peoplo, would be i most just, a most economical, and jor the country, a most advantageous mode of affording relief. Lord Derby coneluded by declaring his determi- nation not to flinch from perform'ng his duty on the subject, if the sense of the country supported his opinions, But he would not overstrain the ‘influence which bolong- | ed to government, nor would he abuse the high position | in which his sovereign had placed him, aud bya moro | inajority force upon the country a measure agiinst which | x great portion of the country had exprossed an opinion.

Lord Jonx Russeut and Sir James Gnasas defended the opposition they intended to offer to the commercial policy of the government. Mr. Secretary Watrorr, after comparing the conduct of the government with that of Mr. Pitt, warned Lord <fobn Russell how ho allied himself with democrats, and concluded with an earnest vindication of the course pur- | sued by the ministry. Mr. Grapsroxs: objected to Mr. Walpolo’s argumonts for delaying the dissolution of Parliament. but Lord Paimensron considered that the ministers should reecive all due forbearance, as their position was anomalous and unconstitutional, but, being accidental, involved them in no blame. The subject then dropped. In the House of Lords, on the toliowing evening. Lord Denny promised to appoint a committce to investigate the movements ot the Irish National Education Board, with the view of mitigating the opposition of the Lrish clergy. ‘THR RIDNON sysTR Mr. Navten, the new Irish Attorney-Ueneral, has moved for and obtained committee to inquire into the Rivbbon system in Irland.
