THIS DAY, Four .'Clock. The following intelligence from Monte Video, by the Danish brig Margarita, was posted yesterday in the Underwriters' Rooms, Liverpool: MOTE VIDEO, JAN. 29.—A gloom has been cast over oar commercial atfaits these last few days, owing to the an fortunate position this government is again thrown into by the unhappy result of General Riviera's operations in this country. The important military position of Salta has been taken by the enemy by assault. Pysander, Mercedes, and Las Vases have been abandoned by our troop•, and the enemy can take possession of either whenever he chooses. Riviera has dispersed his infantry, and gone into the country with about eight hundred cavalry, to carry on a guerilla warfare ; but it Is not unlikely he will be again driven into the Brazils. Maldonado is threatened by assault, and, on the whole, our prospects are very bad. Crguiza, go vernor of Entre-Rios, has at length thrown off the mask, and showed himself a decided partisan of Roses. Unless this government gets timely assistance from England and France, 4.611 be a fully for them to struggle any longer. In fact, I fear the time is not far distant when the Monte Videan troops will 'nye no longer. An action was fought on the 26th instant between Riviera's troops and a division of General Oribe's, which resulted in the total defeat of the former, who is said to have arrived at Maldonado with thirty or forty followers only. The towns Pomander, Mercedes, and Las Vocal have fallen into the hands of General Oribe's troop.. The fort of Colonia, gar. risoned by French and English matinee, still remains to this government. TO HIS EXCELLENCE THE PRESIDENT OP TIE RE- PUBLIC, DON BANTAM ORIBR. " Camp at Fantail de la Sierra de lam Animas, oa the Sarandi, Jan 26, 1847. " My Dear Senor President,—With extreme ',lemurs I have to announce to your excellency that the horde of the incendiary Fructuoso Riviera, cooslartng of about 400 men, has been completely routed at about 5 o'clock this after noon, 50 killed being left on the battle-field, including two chiefs, Sobered° and Espinosa, some other officers, upwards of 100 prisoners, with a oimilar number of arms, about 1,000 horses, and 2,000 head of cattle "It is now only half-past five, and I have not yet re ceived the particulars from some part of the forces under my orders which have defeated this anarchist, in conse quence of their being occupied in the pursuit; and knowing that Riviera's flight was very precipitate, it is possible I may yet overtake him and his followers. " Commandente Olid end Captain Aparicio pursue him closely, so that the number of killed and prisoners will no doubt be considerably augmented. Until to-morrow, I shall not be able to give your excellency the details of this battle, for the reasons already expressed ; meantime, I have plearare in congratulating you on such an important emit on behalf of the brave soldiers under my command, who have shown the greatest rivalry on the present and many other occasions, to meet the ferocious Unitario protegils of the sanguinary ministers, Ouseley and Deffandis. (Signed) " JUAN BARRIOS." A contemporary publishes the following : BURROS Ames, JAN. 19.—8 y advice* received front Colosia this morning, from which place a number of passen gers have syrived, it appears that the whole country south of the Rio Negro is, since the defeat of Colonel Flores on the Ist instant, in the undisputed possession of General Oribe, except the fortified towns on the coast, which may be said to be defended by French vessels of war; for we believe the English have received orders on no account to act in open hostility. An attempt has been made at Monte Video to get up another convoy for the Parana, which was flatly negatived be Sir Thomas Herbert, the object being to release the British barque Holyhood, and the French brig Courier de la Seine Inferieure, detained at Corrientes,: by the late friends of the ministers, the goverment of that province. Sir Thomas Herbert, it is stated, justly deems, that the French can bombard towns on their ewa account without his cognizance, and lately fired upwards of seventy shots on the besieging forces at Co lonic They may therefore send a convoy up if they please, as there is no necessity for his being consulted, and if they do one thing without his knowledge, why not do the other? You may depend that without the interposition, or ether the opposition of Sir Thome., the convoy would have been carried into effect. We regret, at the same time, to inform you that it is rumoured in Monte Video, thut by the Dolphin, the commodore had asked for his resat, giving ream that lee cannot act with his colleagues in • satisfactory manner. We hope this may not prove true, for if he leaves us fire and sword wi ll be our portion. Nothing further has been learnt here from Entre-Rios or Paysander, nor at Monte Video, up to the 16th inst., but by dates from the latter place it appears that the rumours which have been in circulation here for tame days past, of en insurrection or mutiny of the Basque troops with Riviera, are confirmed, and is stated that these worthies have taken powssion of Paysander on their own account ; they will doubtless shortly ask for the protection of their country, to extend their views through the whole of the Banda Oriental. We have before written you on the subject of the French protectorate being claimed by the Monte Video party. We are daily more eenvineed thereof, and hope that our government will not deceive themselves longer, but take measures to prevent tee commencement of such a state of things while it is yet time te do to. Bcasoa AYRES, JAW. 20.—Advices have been received here of the arrival at Rio Janeiro of her Mejesty's brig Moline from England, with dates to the Ist of December, ranee that the British government had ratified Mr. Hood's carnation, as desired by this government, and that the' blockade would be raised Immediately. Doubloons closed to-day at 310 doh. to 311 dole. MONTS VIDEO, JAN. 26.—We are now in receipt of &d- We eices from Eastland to the sth of December inclusive. shall. indeed, be disappointed if Messrs. Ouseley and iniffaudis are to have the settlement of this question, lathe unsfied they will do all they can to thwart an arrangement, whilst, on the other hand, we fear General Rotas will de cline any propositions coming through them. We cannot rstand the object of such policy on the part of the governments of England and France. 14 " T ECtueu, JAN. 27.—Our advice* from Buenos p~ere to the 22 n d i nstant.

MARKETS. MONEY MARKET & CITY INTELLIGENCE. _ After a week of more than ordinary inactivity, and a corresponding absenoe of important fluctuations, the public securities crowd this afternoon at abut the rates of yesterday. There was very little doing in any description of stock. The Bank returns published in haS night's Gazette are more 'satisfactory than many persons had been anticipating. The bear party had calculated on a further reduction in the gold and silver coin and specie of at least half a million, whereas it proves to have been no more than 217,8311., the amount held by the establishment, on March 20th, being still as much as 11,231,6301. The notes unemployed in the bank ing department have not been materially reduced. The amount in hand was 6,418,7451., showing a diminution on the previous returns of 135,3331. flay' past Tire.—From the comparatively cheerful appear ance of the stock markets at the close of business to-day, it is not improbable that there may be some amendment in priers in the course of the ensuing week. The fall in the value of most of the leadiog articles of subsistence greatly favour* the prospect of au unproved state of the markets. Prices closed as follows : 11401.3811 7024101.

Barley, 94 qrs. 7 b. ; average, 60s. Bd. Beans, 103 qrs. 6 b.; average, 625. 3d. Esarca, MARCH 26.-The market to-day has been flat ; the dealers being exceedingly shy in purchasing, and the sellers unwilling to give way. The depression in the Wheat trade at Mark-lane, and all the provincial markets, during the past week, has of course had some effect here. Business has been done at 10s. to 10s. 6d. per bushel for prime Wheat, being a reduction of about 2s. per qr. on that of last week. In Barley there is not much doing ; prime malting samples are worth ss. 10d. to 6s. per bushel; Oats, is. 9d. to 4s. ; fine Flour, 60s. to 625. per sack of 280 lbs. HELL, MARCH 27.-The market has been very inactive, and prices must be quoted Is. to 2s. per qr. lower for Wheat. Spring corn is generally slow of sale, although offered on lower terms. The arrivals of Linseed this week amount to about 3,627 qrs., comprising 3,637 qrs. front Memel, and 180 bags from Messina. There has continued • good demand from the crushers, and many parcels have been taken Weise market, the consumption being very large, both in this poet and the neighbourhood. The market has been well sup plied with all qualities; fine has commanded full rates, but inferior is Is. per qr. lower. We quote Black Sea, 600.; Petersburg, fine, 49a, down to 40s. ( or inferior ; Riga, fine and heavy, 48e. to 41s. ; Archangel, 435. ; Memel and Konigsberg, fine, 465., down to 345. per qr. for inferior light Seed.-Itspeseed A small parcel of fine quality is offering at 30!. per last -Linseed Cakes have barely supported their value.

LIVERPOOL, MULCH 26.-We have received into this port since Monday last a very large arrival of Indian Corn, Indian Meal, and Flour, almost entirely from the United States. The quantity of Wheat thence, however, is comparatively light; whilst of Wheat and Beans, through the Mediterra nean, we have to note • tolerably good supply. Into the leading ports of Ireland, likewise, the late arrivals of all kinds of Breadstuffs are stated to be airy cousiderable, and prices generally depressed in consequence ; which, having recoiled upon the trade here, we have bad no active business passing in any of its departments during the interval since Tuesday. Although at slur market this morning there was a good attendance of home and country millers, the sales of Wheat were very inconaiderable, and•ll descriptions decidedly 25. to 3d. per 7016. cheaper. American Flour, on the contrary, was in lively request, and at an early period of the market about 25,000 barrels of Western Brands were taken, partly for the inland counties, and principally at 365.; but the trade, afterwards becoming more firm, closed at 375. per barrel, which few hold e r s appeared disposed to accept. Barley and Malt were ex tremely dull, and nominally rather lower in value. Beans, also, were difficult of sale and declined le. to 2s. per qr. Peas anveried. Oats, continuing nearly without inquiry, receded Id. per 451 b. ; and Oatmeal appeared very unsaleable at late prices. Indian Corn meeting very little demand to day for Ireland, was farther depressed in value, the best qualities not exceeding 525. to 535. per 4801 b.; and Indian Meal, 255. per barrel.-Arrivals from the 23rd to the 25th March, inclusive, into Liv erp ool and Runoorn : Wheat, 9,240 qrs.; Barley, 468 ; 325 ; Oats, 1,376 ; Beans, 4,937 ; Peas, 200 ; Indian Coro, 34,944 ; Indian Corn Meal, 12,487 barrels; Oatmeal, 237 loads; Flour, 60 sacks, 48,334 barrels. LINCOLN, MARCH 26.-Our market to-day has been very dull, at a decline in Wheats of Is to 2s. per gr. In other descriptions of grain scarcely anything doing. Wheat, white, 735. to 775. ; red, 71s. to 75e. In this district the young crops are looking exceedingly healthy and well. RIPON, MARCH 25.-We had only a moderate supply of grain at this day's market, but quite equal to the demand, the buyers taking up sparingly. The sales effected in Wheat may be quoted at a reduction of Is. per qr. from lent week's prices. In other grain little variation from previous weeks. White Wheal, per bushel, 9s 6d. to 10s. 9d.; red, Be. to 10a. 3d. Barley, per qr., MIL to 565. Oats, 27e. to 383. Haan, per bushel, 71. to Bs. 3d.

Oats, 275. to 365. SCARBOROUGH, MARCH 26.-To-day but a slow sale was effected at last week's prices, with the exception of fine white Wheat, on which there was rather a better price ob tained. Sales effected at the following prices :-Wheat, from 9a. 9d. to IL. per 5 stones. Oats, from 16d. to 18d. per atone. Barley, from 488. to 525. per qr. of 30 stones. Flour, seconds, 555. to 56a. ; superfine, 625. to 64e. per sack of 20 stone. SOUTHAMPTON, MARCH 26.-In consequence of the dull account received from London on Tuesday last, our market was fiat to-day for all grain, but as holders were firm and not disposed to give way in price, there was only a moderate business transacted. 25.—The Wheat market ...de rattly supplied, but the demand not being urgent caused the trade to be dull, and the price to give way from 3s. to 4s. per qr. There was but little demand for other grain, at last Thursday's prices. Wheat, 201. to 221. per load of five ors. ; Beans, 60s. to 56a. per qr. ; Peas, 52a. to 565. ; Barley, 495. to 545. ; Oats, 32a. to 375. ; Rye, 50s. ; Tares, 6s. 6d. to 81. per bush. Flour, per sack, white, 68s. ; in households, 630. seoonds, 58e, . . . ' AVAXEFIFLD, MARCH 26.-The r.rrirals of Wheat are small ; our prices are so much below what is paying on the east coast, that supplies must be limited for some time. We bare a better demand than last week, and at a decline of Is. per qr. there is a Lair extent of business done. Barley con tinues dull, and prices are Is. to 2s. per qr. lower. Oats and Shelling steady. Beans have receded la. to 2s. per qr. Other articles as before. We give our stocks of grain hare, which we believe may be relied upon as correct; they show a much smaller quantity of Wheat than was generally expected: Wheat, 61,282; Beans, 12,883; Oats, 6,253; Peas, 1,121 ; Barley, 1.967; Shelling, 930.

Coax, ?dawn 23.—Wheat has fallen 2s. per 2801 b. Oats have fallen 2s. per 196 lb., and Barley Is. per 224 lb. Flour is now forcing on the bakers, as arrivals from England con tinue heavy ; prices of all descriptions are 2s. per cert. lower. The arrivals of Indian Corn are very heavy, but several of the cargoes have come in in bad condition ; no transactions are taking place, and the quotations are quite nominal; the quantity of bad corn now accumalatingliere is immense. 61 vessels have arrived since the 16th instant, via., 45 with , Indian Coru, 9 with Wheat, 5 with Beans, 1 with Oats, and I with Barley; the whole registering over 9,000 tons: 18 discharge here with Indian Corn. The weather is variable, with a great deal of rain, which has done infinite service to the country, particularly to the young Wheats. There is a large breadth under Wheat, much more than usual. A good deal of Olt* has been sown, but nothing equal to last year, the small farmer having no means nor encouragement to do so. It is too early to judge of what potatoes may be planted, but It cannot be otherwise than trifling. Prepare. tion is making for Barley, the sowing of which is on a mode rate wale.

The earn. cause has made Cows and Calves hang rather heavy on hand ; they may be quoted at from 101. to 161., except a small lot of French Cows, with Calves by their sides, imported by Mr. Leatt, of Budleigh, and landed at Exmouth after a stormy . passage. They were in very poor condition, and were offering at 91. each. Butchers' Calves were plentiful, and selling from 4d. to 6d. per lb., according to quality.

The LORD CMANCRLLOR tank hia scat at fife o'clock. _yUBLIC itIIIHREBB, _ NOTICE OP 140170. 17 1.71;n:i7d1 . 7L0nt Cm max, on Monday aert, to wore for • return of the names of the peers who voted at the late election for ernes...motive prow for Scotland. PRIVILEGE.—ELECTION OF REPRESS:.. PEERS FOR SCOTLAND. Lead COLVILLE complained that at the recent election of a representative Peer for Scotland, in the room of the late Lord Ftollo, an individual when the roll was called over answered to the titleof and voted as Lord Colville of Ochiltree, though, as he believed, he had not the shadow of a shade of right to that title. The title of Lord Colville of Ochiltree became extinct in 1670, and though an attempt was made in 1787, and since then the person he referred to had put for ward a claim, no one had yet succeeded in proving h.s right to it. He did not know whether or not he ought to move that the individual who had thus improperly voted should be called to the bar of the house, but he felt it his duty to protest against the course which had been pursued at that election in reference to the reception of this vote. 1 The Earl of ROSEBERY apprehended that eleir lord ships could not consent to what would be, if not the irregular, at least the unprecedented, motion his noble friend propoeed, of bringing this party to the bar of the house. (Hear, r bear.) By the resolutions of the house, a son or brother of a deceased peer, claiming the title, could vote at an election for a representative peer of Scotland, but no more distant I relative, until his right to the title was proved. If his noble *lend was anxious to pursue the subject further, the more regular and proper course would be togive notice of a motion that a copy of the proceedings at the late election be laid before the house, with a eatement of the names of the peers who voted, and the grounds on which theyclaimed so to vote. If, then, it should appear that the individual in question was , a lineal descendant of the last lord Colville of Ochiltree, or claimed to be so, the resolutions of the house would net zmtalls ow. The house had not made up any roll of it Ilindand so mete enable them to purify it from Mitheabled *Am. Lied BROUGHAM remarked the* the resolutions of the Bente afforded no protection as against those who claimed to ems as lineal descendants--a correct and purified roll was the reined,. LORD CHANCELLOR considered it better t o p u t Eke want in a course of proper regulation for the future • e the question of this past election further. t„ . ..... ..) When a nun claimed to be the lineal heir cr peer, he new wend as a matter a • . 1.111, a. - ite-m -' that for the future no oneshou' d be tom. nee . ~ he had obtained the certificate of the Chastain that he was entitled to exercise that pri. ilege. Inapar descending from father to son in this country, the exercise the privileges of a peer was not ob tain gnat the Chancellor was satiated, and he thought it would be advisable to 'stead that principle to the Scotch peerage. (Hear, hear.) Lord CAMPBELL said the noble lord (Colville) need be under no apprehension that any legal right was acquired by the individual in question by the fact of his having voted ,at the election. He concurred in the remedy proposed by the Lord Chancellor. Lord COLVILLE expressed his satisfaction at the result of the discussion, and gave the notice as suggested by the Earl of Rooeberi. THE GOVERNMENT SCHEME OF EDUCATION. The Earl FITZWILLIAM, in presenting the petition from 25,000 inhabitants of Leeds, against the government plan, said the petitioners denied that it was the right or the duty of the government to interfere is the education of the people in any way. Now, he should say if it was not the right or duty of the government to educate, it was not the right or duty of ipdividuals. (Hear, hear.) The petitioners also expressed their confidence in the success of voluntary efforts to furnish all the aid in the way of education which the exigencies of the nation required. If so, they must admit that all were now educated who ought to be educated. OUT-DOOR RELIEF (IRELAND). Lord MONTEAGLE said he rose pursuant to notice, to bring under the consideration of the house a question of no common interest and magnitude. (Hear, hear.) He had for many . years been Intimately acquainted with the question of Ir ish poor laws. In the other house of parlia ment he bad been chairman of two committees, and more than once had he felt it his duty to give the question his most serious consideration. He had no wish to check the progress of the government measures; he hoped that thole measure would be carefully considered, but he wished them to he accepted or rejected solely on their own merits. He was not about to ask for an unlimited committee of inquiry into the Irish poor-law, a thing which would: occupy the whole session. He merely asked for a committee to examine into the reports which were already on the table of the house. It might be said that he was asking their lordships to do a duty which they had already performed, but he feared that very few indeed of those noble lords who would be called upon to vote on the asw poor. law, had made them se l ves 1 acquainted with the reports to which ho had alluded. He hoped, therefore, that his motion would not be refused on the ground that the house had previous information on the subject. He did not mean to say that they were to be bound by previous information, they might cast it aside if they thought fit, but this be said, that if they were disposed to do justice to this great question, if they were dis posed to do justice to a count ry which was now an integral part of the empire —and he prayed to God that no rash legislation on the part of the imperial parliament might make persons doubt the expediency of its continuing so—if they were so disposed, he prayed them to look back ward, to see what the weight of authority and experience of the past taught, and if they were rnolved to strike, at least to strike after having heard. (Hear, hear.) He wished to guard himself against a misconception. He feared it was held that Irishmen in looking at the question of out-door relief were influenced by two motives equally base. One, a wish to protect their own selfish interests, the other an anxiety to get from the imperial parliament the largest possible amount of the _ public revenue. He dis claimed both motives. (Hear, hear.) He averred that to raise Ireland from its present degradation sail misery, there was no sacrifice which the Irish landed' propnetoro would not submit to. With respect to the seers& he came for no additional gifts. He deprecated mnek ef what had already been done; he awned that muck of the money they had given had been productive of paddle era He had opposed the casting away of a ntillicsielstd tithes, and in the previous year he had opposed the weeldd grant for the Irish constabulary. The fact was, that esse tenth of the sums they had at various times lavished an be. land, would, if properly applied, have relieved the gam bar present miseries. Therefore he did not come to ask for greater gilts, but to pray them in what they were about to do, to consider the social state of Ireland, its existence as a civilised country, the development of its in dustry, and the security of its property. The motion he was about to make was, that a committee should be app o i n t e d to consider the repents of previous committees of inquiry, and to report thereon. It was merely a committee to search the journals, and there was a prece d ent for it in the case of national education. To the house he would appeal, and through them to the British public. The question was whether, in the year 1847, with the experience of the previous half century before them, with their knowledge of the state of Ireland, and the character of the people, they would sanction an experiment introducing for the finalists the out door relief of the able-bodied poor of Ireland. (Hear, hear.) He begged them to observe the distinction he drew. II they wanted relief for the present famine, take the estates, confiscate them if necessary, but let them not attempt per manent regulation without due consideration. He would recall a portion7of ths parliamentary history of Ireland. From 1800 to 1804 was a period of rebellion, and the only legislation was martial law, and the suspension of the habeas corpus act. In 1803 Sir John Newport moved for a committee on the poor-law, and that committee reported that any assimilation of the rating for the relief of the poor In Ireland to the law in England would not be to the advantage of the former country. From 1804 to 1817 foreign policy so occupied; the attention of parliament as to shut out the condition of Ireland altogether. In 1822 there was great misery in Ireland, and Mr. John Smith was chairman of au association which collected up wards of 300,0001. for the relief of that distress. A com mittee of the house was also appointed to inquire into the subject, which reported against out-door relief to the able bodied, and against the application of the principl of the I English poor-law to Ireland. The statute of which was much referred to by persons who anise nod It, or who, baring read it, did not understand It, grave so power to magistrates to order relief to able-bodied meow out of the workhouse. Outdoor relief was an aid from the set of 1795, and no order for out-door relief to Math bodied persons was valid until then. The effect of this In novation was most mischievous, and it was not anal the government of Earl Grey that any effective remedy was ap plied; and the reform of the poor-lawecommenced under Lord Grey and completed under Lord Melbourne, was one of the greatest legislative measures that did honour to British statesmen. The noble lord proceeded to quote opinion' expressed by the poor law commthioners adverse to a labour -rate, or a labour-test, in connexion with the print& ple of out-door relief, as moat mischievous and utterly falla cious. As to Ireland, the experience of the last six months showed that such a test would be altogether fatal. The ;prin ciple upon which the first poor law amendment bill was framed, however much it might have been departed from in practice, was to abandon the system of out-door relief as soon es possible, and to accompany relief with the in-door test. Ultimately, under such a system, the whole of Ireland would have to lean on England for support. That which was now accidental wBbld become habitual, sad Ireland would he reduced to a state of perfect ruin. Ahead ybe had accounts from Ireland of what was occurring and likely to near, under a system which applied the labour ten. There was a farmer in his county, a most respectable, &Malian minded con, who had been already shot for endeavouring thirty to apply such a test. In 1836 Mr. Nicholls had strongly reported against the system. In 1837 Lord J. Russell, in rig upon the subject in the ROAM of Commas', declared 4do opinion that Mr. Nicholls's views were unanswerable, and that outdoor relief in Ireland would be a most pernicious system, draining the proceeds of the land to an extent even greater and more detrimental than had been the case in England. His noble friend the Secretary for the Colonies (Earl Grey) expressed a similar opinion. In the ensuing session, a motion of Mr. Smith O'Brien, in the Hone Of Commas, for outdoor relief, was opposed by Lord Morpeth, who declared that if outdoor relief were one adopted in Ireland, there was scarcely a family in the count/es t !: would sot take advantage of it. In their lordships'w a think, motion was, during the same year opposed by the late Lord Fitzgerald, who knew Ireland well, and hie noble fr iend (Lord B roug h am ) w h o knew everythi ng well . Lord - (La BILO ugh U ter GHA .) M (bowing : Everything proper to be known—proper to be known. ( ) Renewed laughter.) Lord MONTEAGLE (continuing): And those noble lords both expressed themselves strongly seine the adoption of the principle in the sister kingdom. Bat the question was diecussed at a still later period. Only last year Sir James Graham spoke in the House of Commons of a labour rate as the mgt noxious of all the noxious fruits of a poor-law. A rATI VIE [ eemmittee of their lordship also sat upon the question lad year. That committee examined Mr. Cornwall Lewin, Mr. Senior, Mr. Guidon, Mr. Twietleton, and Mr. Clements, ell of whomdeclared their belief that the whole property of the country would be swamped by the introduction of a ny ustem of out-door relief in Ireland. He asked their lord ships then ' to pause and reflect upon the evidence he had adduced. could the government produce any opposing fads? But it was said by many—relieve Irish poverty Irish property, and protect us in England from being charged with Ste support. Now, in addssng himself to that s elfi sh argument, he commen ced re by saying that he grieved that there was a nrceositv for importation of Irish labour into the English market. IS ut would the application of out-door relief in Ireland check emigration from Ireland to England? He believed that so far from checking it, such a systent would greatly promote it. And he would demonstrate this position. The southern counties of England, from Kent to Dorset, were those in which outdoor relief to the able-bodied was formerly most lavishly applied. It was in those counties that wages were at that time the lowest and most miserable, whilst the counties in which labour was best paid were those counties in which there was least out-door relief. What reason was there to doubt that the same effects would follow the same causes in Ireland ? Then, what made the Irishmen come over to this country ? The temp tation of higher wages; and was it not a natural consequence, that if the out door system reduced wages, the emigration from Ireland to Eugland would be by so much ineresaed? When the owners of property in Ireland were ruined— when industry was deprived of its just reward—when all security for property was removed—when everything was reduced to one dreary, miserable waste, unless they came to the proposition of " scuttling " Ireland and leaving her four-and-twenty hours under the sea, the pauperism of Ire land mud se-act upokEngland, and in their homes, their parks, their mansions, their palaces, and their hose,es of parliament, the people of England must fed the dread effects of it. One subject which he wished their lordship* carefully to consider was the proposed extension of the rating district. The union rating would, he thought, be utterly destructive of all property. To make a person responiiitde for pauperism twenty five or thirty miles off, was to violet* the common principles of justice. On such a subject they ought not to disregard authority and experience. Of all social experiments, that which they were about to try was the most awful ; and he called upon the government to lay be fore the public materials which they might ponder during the Easter recess. It should not be supposed that he was against making Irish property responable for Irish poverty. Leta property tax of 10,15, or even 20 per cent., be impos ed , if necessary, upon Irish land : what he claimed war, not the of is Wei from tanatioa. but the proeution of is country from the misapplication of the money raised. Lett it should be imagined that he was only indulging in vague generalities, he would suggest that the system of medical relief for the sick poor should be extended; that there should be asylums established for the relief of every evil to which humanity was sub ject--asylums for the blind, for the insane, foe the decrepid, and foe the impotent. (Hear, bear.) The workhouse relief should, if requisite, be doubled ; but let it he remembered that, in proportion to the rental, tee property of Ireland was making as large a contribution in the present year, in the shape of par-rate, u was being paid by property in England. (Hear, hear.) With respect to emigration, he thought they not only might, but they mast, go much further; it was impartible to meet the difficulty in which Ireland was placed without going intiniv ly farther in that respect than the government appeared prepared to go. Thanking their lordships for the patience with which they had listened to him, he called upon them to pans* before they pronounced the death-warrant of a people, and destroyed all chance of improvement in Ire land. The noble lord concluded by moving —" That a select committee be appointed to consider and to report on the recommendations of the aeveral parliamentary committee* and commieeiona on the state of the Irish poor, as relating to the expediency of introducing permanently the system of out-door relief for the able-bodied labourer; and on the effect of such a measure on the well loeing of Ireland, the interests of the poor themselves, and the immi gration of Irish paupers into Great Britain: and also, to consider end to report on the effects of enlarging the present electoral divisions, for the purpose of raising and levying the assessments under the poor-law." The question having been put, Earl GREY said he could assure their lordships that it was with great regret that he felt it necessary to ask them to refuse their assent to the motion. He bad great doubt as to the light in which he should regard that motion—whether the real object were to institute en inquiry, or to induce their lordships to express, by anticipation, an opinion unfavourable to a particular clause in a bill which would shortly come under consideration, and which, after full deliberation, had been carried is the other house by a majority even of Irish members. (Hear, hear.) In either view he considered the motion very objectionable. For his own part, he (Earl Grey) entertained the strongest conviction that the bill, which had been supported by such large majorities in the other house of parliament, wee absolutely essen tial to the future welfare of the sister kingdom. He did not deny that it was a legitimate and perfectly par liamentary proceeding to ask the house to express an opinion upon a great question by implication, before the bill actually came before them, but the inconvenience of such a course was proved by the circumstance that throughout his speech his noble friend had been fighting a chimera of his own invention, and not the measure which would shortly be dis cussed. (Hear, hear.) His noble friend had spoken as if it were proposed to establish, as the ordinary course of things a system of out-doer relief to the able-bodied. That was very unlike what was redly proposed. The poor-law in Ireland at that moment made the granting of relief entirely discretionary, the boards of guardians being empowered, but not required, to relieve the totally deinitute. The go vereunent . proposed, not, he thought, without grave nem- Sty, that, in future, boards of guardians should not only be empowered, but also required, to relieve the destitute. If that principle of legislation were adopted, it followed that they must provide some means by which, when the work house was full, those whom they believed it a duty to relieve should receive assistance. Accordingly, in the bill then be. fore the other house of parliament, it was proposed that when the workhouse was full, or when, owing to fever or some other cause, it was no longer available, then, and then only, under a temporary order from the poor-law commis sioner—an order strictly limited in point of time, though it might be renewed whenever a necessity for renewal ex isted under such as order in the pressure of a temporary emergency, relief out of the workhouse should be granted to the able-bodied. That was the real proposal of her Majeety's government; but any one who had not read the bill would have formed a very different conclusion from the speech of his noble friend. (Hear, hear.) Much bad been said about the abuses of relief in this coun try ; but his noble friend had forgotten to remark that an effective poor-law was in itself of the utmost value to society. When society declared that no man should be left absolutely to die of hunger, while there were means of relieving him, there was given to that great portion of mankind in all coun tries which must trust tether to labour than to accumulated property for its subsistence, an interest in maintaining the laws upon which the security of property depended ; and that he believed was one of the very first essentials for creat ing a rich and prosperous community, and giving an impulse to industry and improvement. From the very moment when each a law was_pessed in England, the state of society began to improve. When security was thus establishW, property began to accumulate, industry to flourish, and year after year, and century after century, this great country had advanced in wealth and proejterity greatly, through the ope ration of the same cause. Expenence the other way was no less instructive. The universal answer to the question, " Why is Ireland poor and miserable ?" would be, " Be cause there is insecurity in Ireland." (Hear, bear.) The town why Ireland did not flourish, why capital did not ac cumulate there, was that hitherto there had been no security that thou who were industrious should enjoy the fruits of there industry —a elate of things which had led to a determination on the pert of the population generally to cling to land at all hazards, because, if deprived of that, they might be left to perish on a dunghill, and because that was the one sheet anchor which they could fly to in their extremity. It was this feeling which had led to so much eomb s nation, to the midnight legislation of Captain Bock, and to all those peculiarities of Ireland which had rendered its improvement so difficult, if not imposAle. No doubt political camas had greatly aggravated tU eidie of the country, but be &ebbed whether there was any gem so powerful as the almesses i. any security even for a enbeleassee to ore of the Men who had been ejected tress Ye w a k aer ,4 117 . ..1 His noble friend had maim ono correction ; it was, that under the ii allablik, Mkt could not be given to the able- peer est date Seek house, Lord MONTEAGLE—Not without work.

But he begged to tell his noble friend that there was a great difference in the economy with which people managed their own money and that of others. (Hear, hair, The evidence in the blue-books showed that the great rapes diture in Ireland arose from the belief that those who autho rued the expenditure would have to pay but a small part is, it, and he was sure that if the money was raised by rata at the time, a very different degree of severity would have pre vailed respecting its expenditure. (Hear, hear.) But he had then no fear of that lavish expenditure which his noble friend dreaded. But, in addition, it was notorious that the Irish peasant waa unwilling to avail himself of the workhouse. Lord MONTIUGLE—But relief wee now to be given oat of the workhouse.
