Now, let me take the amendment which has been proposed by the hon. member for Trdee, whether by way of substitution or of addition. He proposes that we should humbly express, our deep regret to her Majesty that wide-spread disaffection exists in Ire- land, sad that we should humbly represent to her Majesty I that this wide spread disaffection is the result of grave causes which it is the duty of her Majesty's government to examine into and remove.

Berl RUSSELL would answer this evening. PARLIAMENTARY OATHS. Lord FLAVENSWORTH said that he bad last eession announced hie intention of brioging in a bill on the subject of Roman Catholio oaths, but that as government in tended to bring is a bill oe the subject of parlismentary maths meerally, he had abandoned his tatentioo. He feared that the establishment of • uniform oath would be toned te be a more ditloult task than wee anticipated by her Majsely's government. NATIONAL FAST FOR THE CATTLE PLAGUE. The Berl of CARNAHVON had &rather imported quo. Yes to ask the noble earl at the head of the government. He bed noticed in the papers of that morning in a report of the ~so.dings of convoeatioe—rather an odd plplaceby the way whichhe cs to Sod news of the cattle pbgae—that the most NIV. the Primate of all England stated be had roommuni mated with Sir George Grey on the subject of a national fast in oonneeion with the cattle plague. Sir George Grey bad declined attending to the suggestion, sad amongst ether !moons he gave this one, that initialled feats were only appointed in consequence of calamities which affected the entire nation. Now he (Lord Carnarvon) must say that if such was the moon given by Sir George Grey it was • moat unsatisfactory one, and would go far to justify the belief, which wee too prevalent, that her Majesty's govern ment was indifferent to the sufferings of the clam upon which this calamity bad fallen, and that if any other oboe bad suffered it would have been more votive. He knew there were certain doctrinaires is the country whe hold that if the whole of our cattle were swept away the laws of trade should not be disturbed, and that every thing should be left to Sod its own level. He hold that the cattle plague was a calamity which attested every class throughout the emetry, and he doubted whether the Cbminellor of the Ex che quer would not And its effects telling in every branch of the revenue. Earl RUSSELL believed that the beet answer he could give to the noble earl would be to produce the letter of the Friend. and the reply of Sir George Grey. Wiles the noble earl saw that letter he would see that there was already a prayer by using which the 'taboo might humble GNU before the Almighty, and implore the divine proton. lion in the case of the cattle plague. Perhaps the noble seri would have done well to have waited for the m 3due- Son of these letters before he indulged in invectives against bar Majesty's government. The Bishop of LINCOLN could amore the hones that in the district with which he was connected, and which bad suffered, and was still suffering, severely from the settle olmoe, the appointment of a national fast would be Mewed with great satisfactioe. It wts true that the prayer to which the noble earl bad alluded was read every week, bat it was thought it would be fitting if a more specal act of national supplication were appoiated. In many whams Me people were t aline the matter mto their Olen halite, mil calling upon the clergy to stir in the matter. THE CATTLE TRADE. Lord BATEMAN was understood to complain that SIT George Grey had declined to receive a deputation from the loyal Agricultural Society on the subject of the cattle plague, as ale° one from the battle Trade °anteroom.

Ile has been a musical with) ever sines --- I have town bits. Operas depend very much on critics. Ido not know that Gounod's works were kept out of Rog. land for 10 or 12 years by a bristle critic. I doubt if one man would be able to do no. Ris works have been performed at Oovent-Garden. Mr. Coleridre—And written down? Mr. Oole7icliejDo yea it - san to my that? Mr. Benedict—l don't mess to my scything. The Lord Chief Justice—Are you aware of any other professional =goal critic who gives concerts ►t which the artists siog gratuitously ? Mr. Besedist —I don't know of say other than Mr. Ryan, since Mr. Howard Glover has left the press. The Lord Chief Justice—l ask you, es • great authority, whether you thick it desirable that such • thing should be drawn into • precedent! Mr. Benedict—lt is difficult to ray. Is my conscience I think it is disadvantageous to the critics themselves to give concerts. On the other hand artists are rosy liberal. They often sing gratuitously .or charitable purposes, sod it is very prob•bi many of them sing at Mr. Ryan's coc oons without the foot of his being • critic entering isto their minds. _ _ This was the plaintiff's ass. The defendant valid no witnesses. Yr. Serjeant Bobinaon having summed up the plaintiff's evidence, Mr. Coleridge addressed the jury is mitigation of damages. He said there could be so doubt this was a serious libel if sot tree, and demanded something like n explanation from the defendant. It would be difficult fee them to be brought to look at this matter from the point of view in which It presented itself to the defendant, but he hoped to be able to give them some eminence towards it. Pew things could be more important than that crake of all kinds should be thoroughly independent and honourable men, and he weld sot Imagine • person to have more arduous and important duties than • critic, for he bad the destinies of a large number of honourable, deserving, and too often needy individual+ in his hands. The article itself showed what the writer Intended to denounce. It was sot suggested that the defendant had any spite or malice against the plaintiff, but rather the contrary. The de fendant was • public writer, and he sincerely believed that there was a system in conoexion with the menial profeesion, whereby a criiio's praises were to be bought, and if persons would state is public what they said in private, it would be more easy to show it than it had been io this ease. A great many people believed it, and Mr. Wood might entertain a bon-fide belief it its existence. He was astounded to hear Mr. Benedict say that the writings of M. (loaned were not kept out of this oonntry by adverse criticism, because be (Idr. Coleridge) believed it wee unfortunately too true. The existence of these foots in Mr. Wood's belief and others might na turally load him to desire to put en end to it. There were two orifice who were in the habit of giving comer's+, and, in fact. the artists, by singing at them, give I tbirty or twenty guineas each to the critic whom they sup port on these occasions, and it was for the jury to say with what object it was done. Professional singers, like other professional men, were always ready to moist in cases ri distress, and by their aid in singing do a charitable act, but it did not apply in the case of a critic. It certainly might be assumed that if the plaintiff had not been a critic, the pro tenelosals who bed been called might not have even their gratuitous service,. Mr. Wood, believing the evil Inferred to existed, considered it was patent in Mr. Ryan's ease, and if they believed the system intended to be de meaned waited and was a bad one, and that the plaintiff's, meduct was such as to lay him open to observation, he was not entitled to heavy damages. It was but natural that the victims of the netem should decline coming forward to give evidence, and it was difficult, in cans where they were morally certain of its truth as they ware that the sun shoos at soon day, to procure the necessary evidence from reluc tant wienessm. Mr. Wood was desirone of rid of them shackles which sorrowed the musical anion. and any one who wished to see it emancipated ought to thank those who attempted to get rid of a vicious system. The defendant mart, unfortunately, fail, and the verdict mart go against him ; and then arose the question of damages. It was sot shown that Mr. Ryan had sustained ems atom of damage by the publication of the libels, and he suggested the smallest coin of the realm. Mr. Wood believed—nay almost knew it was true, and therefore be , could not withdraw what had bees published, but left it to the jury to say what damages the plaintiff, as a musical critic and a man of honour, bad stunned. The Lord Chief Justice, in summing op, said there could be no doubt this was a libel of a most serous character, for it imputed to the plaintiff that his criticisms were actuated by sordid motives. Critics undertake a most '.nportant. be might say, a sacred duty, when they pro- fess to enlighten the public upon matters either of literature or artistic performances. The public naturally was guided in the formation of its opinion by what it read, believing that criticism' were writtoo fairly and impartial)y. Scarcely any one went to view the pictures in May with out being guided more or less by what he bad previously read about them ; and in like manner as to the merits or demerits of en actor or a singer. All believed that criti c-ems were honestly written by men who were better able to form an opinion than the nubile generally, if left to their unaided judgment. It was therefore a onion thing to charge • critic with being actuated by sordid feelings. He quite *occurred with the defendant's counsel that the system referred to was one wnich • public writer was justified in severely commenting on, but he had gone further in this instance, and bad charged Mr. Ryan with being actuated with base motives—baying de scribed hits ea one of the highwaymen of the prose, black mail upon all he could. However much !i . i= critics having concerts for their own beeefit was to be re gretted, it did sot appear that Mr. Rpm had, in anew queue, abused his privilege and power ; bet on the otter hand, it was a practice likely to create suspicion and tend to increase the belief, if it existed, of partiality towards thole artiste who gave him their gratuitous services. He I regretted the defendant should have persisted in reiterating' the charge through his learned conned to them, instead of relying on his honest belief ; and that being so, he thought the plaintiff, in vindication of his character as a public , writer and as • man of honour, was entitled to sub stantial damages. The jory returned • verdict for the plaintiff—der magas, 260 i. TRAFFIC RITURNS. Masa Pan- Teta.

PILL, of Northamptoeshire, moved a resolution, • declaring that the removal of all live cattle from one plum to another over highways, except in uainfected (aunties, and the removal of all live cattle by railways throughout Great Britain, ought to be prohibited foe a limited time. The resolution was seconded by Colonel HALPOILD, of Leicester, who spoke of the impossibility of carrying out the proposed or any plan for staying the plague under the system of local authorities. Mr. ILtasHALL, of Ely, in Cambridgeshire, which he said was the largest loser of cattle from the plague, pointed out that in the resolution there was a most significant excep tion in the words "except in uninfected counties," and proposed that that words should be eliminated. (Hear, bear.) The resolution as amended by leaving out the excepting words was carried, as was another moved by Mr. Surrars, to the effect that all imported cattle be prohibited from moving island. Mr. GOODLAKII, president of the Edinburgh Chamber of Agriculture, moved :—" That the immediate destruction of all plague-stricken animals and those in direct contact with them, and the complete isolation aid official watching and control of all animals that have been within the influence of contagion, ought by act of parliament to be provided for." This was seconded by Mr. B.TDI2t, of the Liverpool Agri cultural Society. Professor Gallows supported the motion, and (attended for the stamping out of the disease by slaughtering all infected animals. The thermometer enabled them to detect aeon rately the existence or non-existence of the disease in any animal. . . . — Ttre motion was adopted with two disssntie Efir G. TZNIKINSON moved—" That the partial remuneration of the owners of animals affected by these measures be provided for by act of parliament" He could not advo cate that such remuneration should be provided out of the consolidated fund, but by a county rate. (No, no.) The GRAMMAR remarked that the resolution left that point apes. Sir G. JINKTISON, in continuation, blamed the govern- ment for not having acted in accordance with the recom mendations of their own commissioners. The resolution was seconded by Mr. NORMAN and carried, as was another requiring that the disinfecting of all infected premises, market places, railway trucks, and cattle pens, should be enforced by act of parliament, moved by Captaie Da Wrrr and seconded by Mr. Tumult A deputation was appointed to wait on Sir G. Grey to represent the views of the meeting, end urge upon the government to take the step. necenary for giving effect to the same—tbe Hon. F. Scorn objecting that it ought to be to Earl Russell—end a petition to parliament praying that • stop may be pat by legislative enactment to the removal of all live cattle from one place in Great Britain tr another, for • limited time, and, is connection therewith, to enact farther—that all animals Labouring wider the dimes' shall be immediately slaughtered, and buried in the skin—the same being previously slashed and spoilt—the owners thereof being partially compensated from such source as the wisdom of parliament may devise ; and that all cattle which have come in direct contact with diseased animals, or which have been in the same enclosure with them, though yet showing no symptoms of the disease, shall also be immediately slaughtered on the premises, the offal§ to be disinfected and buried, the bides to be disinfected and sold, and the circuses also to be sold for the benefit of the owners ; the loss thereon to the owner to be partially compeos.ted, in like manner. out of the funds raised as aforesaid ; sad in order that full advantage may be taken of this canpulaory steptexe of transit of cattle, to enact provisions for carrying out sanitary measures to extinguish effectually all germs of the dhows—in particular, that the whole premises occupied by diseased animals, or by animals which have come in contest with, or been in the asorecraclo sore. abed, or byre with diseased animals, shall be the. atomised and disinfected, and the manure, litter, and fodder taken therefrom, also disinfested or burnt, at the occupier's exposes, by proper °Mears. And that farther, all railway trucks and pens, and other !railway plant that have been used in the transportation of live stock, be offi eially cleansed and disinfected, and their me prohibited for a period of time.

A Barr &sum writ% Fray B•uh.— The American ship Columbia, which arrived in the Mersey on Wednesday, had a very narrow escape from destruction on Sunday afternoon last. The storm which so unex pectedly broke over Liverpool on the aftsenoris of that day appears to have prevailed a loag way down the channel, and several captains of ships which hive since entered the Mersey describe it as nothing else than a fearful whirlwind. Captain Robinson, of the Columbia, reports that on Sunday afternoon when besting up the chanitel,the sky became sod denly overcast, and heavy rain and hailstones came down in shower& A few minutes had scarcely elapsed when the horizon was illumisated by a fearful Sash of sheet lightning, which was immediately followed by a tremendous peal of thunder. The wind at the time b lew a hardwire from all quarters. The roll of the thunder peal had sraroely died away before two large belle of Si. sruhted on the ship's deck, and set fire to the deck-house and galley, but did no other damage. ST.
