the lowest calculation, the annual amount of the dnties proposed to be levied would be £87,500, all of which it was evidently contemplated should be divided among three or four persons, who were to exercise the consular power of Great Britain at Canton. Surely such a sum could not be necessary for that purpose. If the system of defraying consular charges by fees was under any circumstances to be defended, it unquestionably was most inapplicable at the present moment to the trade with China. The charge of £1. per cent. ad valorem on goods, whether exported or imported, was fully equal to a charge of £2 per cent. on the imports: and when he assured their Lordships that the proposal of the noble lord would take off at least £20 per cent. on the possible profits of the persons engaged in trade, he thought he was fully justified in asserting that the present condition of the commerce engaged in the China trade could not bear the additional pressure this bill would impose. He objected to the establishment of a court of justice at Canton. It was a measure which never ought to have been sent up to that House from the House of Commons.

The Duke of Wellington thought the Legislature would be proceeding on a mistake if they supposed they had any right to appoint commissioners to reside at Canton for the management of the trade. It was true a British factory had been for some time established at Canton; but even that body, notwisthstanding the important position they occupied, were never allowed to reside there more than the few months that the British shipping generally visited it. With respect to the establishment of courts of justice, he doubted very much whether, unless a specific permission from the Chinese government was previously obtained, it would be possible to carry the provisions of the bill in that respect into operation.

The House went into committee on the bill, which was read a third time and passed on the 22d.

The royal assent was given by commission, on the 28th, to the Charter bill, the China Trade bill, and the Tea Duties bill.

Parliament was prorogued by the King in person, on the 29th. The speech contained the following passage:

"The laborious enquiries carried on by the committees of both Houses of Parliament, for several successive sessions,

have also enabled you to bring the affairs of the East-India Company to a satisfactory adjustment. I have the most confifident expectation that the system of government thus established will prove to have been wisely framed, for the improvement and happiness of the natives of India, whilst, by the opening of the China trade, a new field has been afforded for the activity and enterprize of British

commerce.

HOUSE OF COMMONS, August 12.

China Trade Bill.—This bill, entitled "A bill to regulate the trade to China and India," travelled through this House, as far as we can collect, almost sub silentio. It was introduced and read a first time on the 15th of July; read a second time on the 24th July, and committed on the 8th of August, on neither of which days is any debate reported in the public papers. This day, on the question of the third reading of the bill,

Mr. Young proposed a clause enacting that the expense of the establishment in China should be defrayed as other consular establishments, under 6 Geo. IV.

Mr. C. Grant opposed it on the principle of making India as well as England contribute to the expenses of consular establishments in China.

Mr. Hume suggested the trying for a year or two how the system proposed by the act would work, and hoped that the hon. member would not divide the House on his clause.

Mr. Young withdrew the clause.

In answer to a question from Mr. Hume, Mr. Grant stated that the whole amount of the establishment would cost about £20,000 a year.

The bill was then passed.

THE ARMENIANS OF CONSTANTINOPLE.

In our tenth vol. p. 329, we gave some account of the severe treatment which the Catholic Armenians of Constantinople suffered from their brethren the schismatics. By the kindness of the Turkish Government, the sentence of proscription was revoked; they were authorized to build churches, schools, and hospitals in any part of Turkey, and to have a patriarch of their own* (having hitherto been subject to the schismatic patriarch), with power over the inferior clergy, and declared to be entirely independent of the Greek and Armenian schismatic patriarchs. In the midst of the joy caused by this event, another unexpected calamity involved the united Armenians in the deepest distress. On the 21st of August 1831 a dreadful fire broke out in Constantinople, and in ten hours reduced Pera, the suburb in This disaster which they reside, to ashes. consumed their property, destroyed their commerce and trade, and left them without the means of building a church, a hospital, and a school. Urged by this distress, they have found themselves compelled to solicit the charitable aid of other Christian nations, and they have deputed a priest of their nation, the Rev. Nerses Lazarian, to make known their distress and to solicit aid. Sir Richard Carr Glyn, Bart., and Co, of Lombard Street, and Messrs. Wright and Co. Henrietta Street, bankers, have consented to receive donations. We have taken means to ascertain the facts, and the respectability of the Rev. Nerses Lazarian, and we strongly recommend the case of this interesting oriental people, who, we think, have legitimate claims on the charity of their fellowchristians in the west.

MESSRS, ALEXANDER AND CO.

At the Court of Commissioners of Bank ruptcy, on the 2d August, the partners in this firm underwent their last examination, before Mr. Commissioner Fane, when the debts proved in the whole amounted to about half a million sterling. On the 22d, a further meeting took place, when the official assignee (Mr. Whitmore) stated, that there seemed to be a general misunderstanding on the subject of proving the debts; some persons imagining that if they prove in India they have only a claim on the property situate there, and vice versa, if they prove here, they can only claim on assets arising from property situate in England. But the property of the estate, no matter where it lay, was equally avail able for the benefit of the creditors at large, without any reference as to where they proved their debts; the assignees in Calcutta and in Europe must account together, and a dividend be rateably made, after the accounts on both sides are fully and satisfactorily compared and investigated, so as to embody all into one single and general account. However, to facilitate as much as possible the business of the estate, it was his intention to address a circular to the creditors who have already proved in this court, stating that it was necessary they should elect whether they would receive their dividends through the court here or in Calcutta.

The creditors, without hesitation, signed the certificate.

"Liverpool, 31st July," giving some account of the proceedings of the expedition, states the following fact, on "the most unquestionable authority," namely, that "there are merchants here (at Liverpool) so heartless and inhuman as to instruct the masters of their vessels, who trade to the African coast, to refuse any assistance to the expedition, of which it may stand in need; to reject all letters that may be sent from the parties connected with it; and, in fine, to hold no communication whatever with the steamers or the brig!' Does it not startle you that jealousy and selfishness can go so far?"

The Editor of the Liverpool Mercury, which publishes this letter, expresses a hope that the merchants, whose "disgraceful and inhuman conduct" are here stated, "are not Liverpool merchants;" though he admits "for the honour of his native town," he shall anxiously look for some explanation.
