He will bo porfoctly satisfied in the first iustanoo with such proforential arraugomonls as tho colonies are likoly to accept, and adds: "Wo can assist you to fill up tho wasto lands, and while not in any way interfering with your progress in manufacture, we shall always find opportunities for the chango of each part ol the empiro producing for tho rest materials and unmanufactured goods it is best lilted to supply" Ho expresses confidence that ultimately the adoption of his preferential proposals will be effected, but m to whothor ho will live to sec it ho is uncertain.
