LORD JOHN RUSSELL% HIPLANATION. Our enders will have already le armed, from the parliamentary reports, that Lord Joan Ewell has given unties that on Tuesday next be will bring in a to: to a mend the Irish poor law. This notice has camel some discussion in the committee now sitting on the Irish poor law ; and, yesterday, Lord John Boma explained to the committee the Intentions of the government with respect to the forthcom . ia che noble lord °lmmolated his explanation by referring to the importances of the question, sad to the anxiety evinced by both home of parliament and by the public, sepseislly Inlaid, to know what changes were in con , is :unification of his proceeding to kghlate on poiaiswith re ' gar{ to whisk the theimaittes was still legation& .mist 1a! as yet =premed se-egiaiiie. ll* stated kis unmake to edel km to the proposal he had originally mde in favour or Gs. as the mull tea rats far electoral divisions, and of 2e. as the minimum union rate. He would exempt from poor rates, tar the period of seven years, all improve ment% cierasected with the land, and would f r that length of time .km no increased valuation, in coosequence of such thaprovemente. This exemption, however, was not to aster toithildings or improvea.ents is towns, and there seemed to be some doubt if farm buildings wen included in it. He peopthed to make an alteration in the mode in which the cieenpier is now enabled to deduct a portion of the rata from the landlord. At present, if the assessment be very low—if, for example, it is only half the amount of the rent, the tenant, by deducting, according to the present law, half the poundage the whole amount of the rent, min throw the whole burden of the rate directly on the landlord. In future the tenant is in no cue to be empowered to charge more ;hen half the amount paid upon the landlord, which was the ori ginal intention of the a listing law. The new bill will em power the commissioners, in certain cues, to reduce the pro perty qualifiat.ions for guardian', now fixed at 301. of as. 'quaint; and it adopts the novel principle of making the holders of jointures and annuities on landed property liable to a portion of the rate pas ab:e by the estates on which their themes are secured. There wall oleo be clauses in the bill providing far keeping separate accounts, in cues wbere Out else of uaions or electoral divisions shall be altered by the oommiasionera. There are some points which are not yet finally settled, bat on which thug°, are contemplated. It i.e intended to give landlords the power to eja et tenants by civil bill decree when toe tenant is in &near of poor's rates, and in clue of land not occupied by a tenant, but over which the landlord exercises any nests authorship, the landlord is to be deemed the occupier, sad to be liable for the accruing rates. With re dud to the sale of land for use irs of rat. 0 , it is intended to give the power of sale to the poor law out:whirs of the union or electoral division, in mars where the landlerel is owner in foe ; bat where a life interest ouly exists, nothing teyond this eau be sold. On this point, however, the statement of the noble lord was not very easy to understand, and tone discussion took place Cla this and other details of the bill. It was understood that on those parts of the whole inquiry ie. eluded in, and to be settled by, this bill, the committee Om not intend to take further evidence. The questions of emi gration of the 41. clause, of the appmatmeat of vice guardilas, and t f the effect of some portions of the law roatiag to landed property on the: incr.. sae of pauperim in Ireland, are Loa yet disposed of, and further evidence wiall %loni* be taken.

The prospects of the company remains , ' quite as satisfactory u lutes ,• and there were ample funds in hand, in cash and ores, for the prosecution of the weeks, so that no further call need be anticipated far the present year. At this time workings were being curia on in Ave inines.—The Chairman said they had continued to raise, every week, a quantity of cobalt ore, which produced a good deal of silver. They bad at present about twenty one in hand, and should shortly proceed with the mashing. The prospects in the St. Michael's (eoprr) mine were very encoungiag ; sad though their operations might ap pear small, they were capable of being expanded if they tamed out proeperously to a very great extent .

On Thursday evening a very namerimelpattended meeting was held at the orn Exchange, Mancoeeter, far the purpose of hearing 'addressee fa favour of the voluntary system of education. R. J. Sinasorram, Esq., in the chair. There were upwards of 2 000 p ople present. The CHAIRMAN said the object for which they were convened was one of the most important which could occupy their attention. Never in the history of our country bad the public mind been so generally directed to the subjeet of edu cation as at the present moment; and nowhere had more anxitoy been manifested than in this city that the masses of the people should Ism- placed within their reach such an taxation as should At Mena for the right discharge of their duties not only as members of the commonwealth, but for those higher and more sacred duties which had te do with their imperishable interests. That a large amount of igno rance and vice exist d no one attempted to deny, and he weal! field' to no man in his deep solicitude in their removal. Bet as to the best means of doing this, men might honestly and very emeselentknady differ; and it was only by comparing; their views, and submitting them to the test of prahl'c 6 anion, that they caul./ hope to arrive at a mittractoiy eonclirion. He did not himself Imi tate to avow, baiter giving the subject hi. not anxious consider.tion, is deep conviction that thin did exist in the various denominations of this country the 'power and the means of grappling with this question in all its magnitude, spirt from all cimpulsory or governmental intarfcrence. (Applause.) When he looked at the large noneonforming hi of this kingdom—when he raw their number", their growing intelligence, their him ming wealth—when he Paw what they, as bodies, had done in this country, the mighty change they had effected during the last 20 or 30 years, he could not but believe, now that this subject was trerianing, to press upon their attention, that there weed in the next few years be • etch an orginisatioa of the differ' nt Chris. tan bodies as fully 'o meet the wants and wishes of the grist masses of tit's kingdom. (Applause.) The Chairman am- I chided by referring, in support of his observations, to a letter he had received from one of the religious societies in Scotland. The Rev. A. WELLS, of lAndos, said he kit this 30)- 1 jest had acquired immense interest and importance owi*T lo the demotions and opinions at present rife in this most im portant city ; and that the atteadon of the cumin would he drawn en It as the pisee when this great question would be discus, d, pad he sin.old venture to hope perhaps also rattled. He should endeavour to avoid 'sneaking so as to give offence to any who differed from Wm. He knew there were many who held opisioas very different from his own ; but he trusted they mere mil in quest of the truth. (Applause.) He wished ohm he and his friends, Mr. Morley and Mr. Har e"". T ed.""i se, appeared at this ineeting as representatives of the Conermerional Board for promoting general education with the infusion and influence of religion in rehools, to he purely voluntary resources and principles. They came much more for practical than for controversial purposes ; they yawed money, they wanted wore ; th.y wanted a vigareus effort in this great undertaking. 1 hey were anxious to viodicate their voluntaryism. There- I fore, they were solicitous to gather from their friends in Manchester, and the Congregationalists of this wealthy and intelligent community, who approved of their vices, sad who were willing to contribute their money and come nano"—they wanted that for a vigorous effect in every poi of England. Previous to the introduction of Sir ISMS is. tam's bill for melee- g the labor: of children in ferneries, sad also compelling the education of those children. to the early part of 1843, op to that time the Oin gregationalists of England had almost universally gem with the British and Foreign School Bdiety. But when that bill had been withdrawn, is consequence 0 the loud expostulates,: of the friends of voluntary edam*. in England, the cos; emotionalist party felt they must, having been active partial in the defeat of that measure, vindicate themselves as the friends of education, though the manias of compulsion in education, by increasing their voluntary exertions. With that view resolutions were pied at a meeting in Leeds In October, 1843, recommending more vigorous efforts; and they were to put forth their denominational infinities sod interests, not to create congregational schools, but is pia advantages of their internal organisation te , results for the advancemest of voluntary generally. It was not a sectarian business.

We have limed mush of late of the sixpenny loyalty of Ulster. UM of Canadian togism is avowedly conditiornal. it makes no earn* of confessing that its allagitnes is contingent on its being kept in the politisalmead ant. The whole moral et the present tory easement is this—that if the British government does not now aid the tales in settees back to power, they will east their lot with the United Maas. They threaten annexation without even the 'emblem of an acre. Seek of the liberals es re belled is 1837 had the decency to pref.r a me justifi cation at least for their conduct. Their language was, 4 we coma remain British subjects if we are treated unjustly;" that of the tories practically is, "we cannot remain British subjects in opposition" Yet it is in aid of ii. paltry faction, sot by such adfish motives, that some of our contemporaries sem, when they gravely discuss the question as one involving in its issue either the integrity of the empire or the honour of the crown. - That we have not misrepresented the spirit of the 'malcontents is evident from the conduct of the "good old tory" alluded to, not unapprovingly, by the Chronicle, who, in his hatred to rebels and in the exuberance of his loyalty, " d—d th e Queen and LAFONTAL'4II." If, as we are informed, the true secret of the leaning of this worthy specimen of his faction towards annexation be that it would enhance tenfold the value of his properly, he might bare spared LAFONTAINE from is denunciation, whilst, before including the Queen in it, it would have been but f ,ir to wart to see what ciatse the Queen and her government would puree in the presen t juncture. The instance selected by our oontempaaty is not very felicitous as tending to show that it is to Om " rebel lion losses" bill that are to be attributed the present aoisy ebullitions of provincial toryism is favour of annext ion. A strong point is attempted to be made by our eon temporary of the attitude assumed by the American press in reference to the present movement in Canada. But a certain clam of American journalists see, or think they sic, nothing but advantage to their country from confusion in Canada, no matter from what source that I confusion may arise. They, therefore, fan the spirit of disa ff ection, in whatever quarter they may discern it, and ale prone to deceive themselves and others as to the extent of that which they a'e anxious to Mater. To judge of the present sepect of Canadian affairs from the colouring Divert them by some American journals, is to lay oneself open to deception. In 1837, they exagger ated the extent of the rebellion, when they believed that the spirit of disiffectio2 pervaded the whole liberal party. They now magnify a party wrangle into an incipient rebellion, and hail with satisfaction the menaces of annexation indulged in by some of the more infuriated kaditre of the tog minority of the population. We Uust that the imperial government, should Lord Emu; rewire the bill for her Majesty's comidemtion, will not incline towards those who are thus sowing broad cast the seeds of future calamities tor Canada.

In other words, we are warned of the I danger of disregarding the remonstrances of one-fifth of the whole Canadian population. Nothing is said of the perils of running counter to the convictious of the other four-fifths. Ate the sins of 1837 to be con stantly remembered against the French Canadians? Are their faithful services to the crown during the revolutionary war, and during that of 1812, to weigh as nothing *gaited the fault et a few of them in 1837 ? The cry of French domination is dater nonsense. The boot is on the other kg; audit is the French, and not the Anglo-Saxons, of tue province, that have to dread the political extinction of their race.

Mr. LUKE EMBLETON took the chair, wel in etatiou the objects for which they had assembled observed that it wee absolutely necessary for the people of this country to make a great struggle to remedy the grievances ceder which they laboured from the present uniust system of taxation ; and to wrench firm the hands of the aristoeracy the power which they now held over their resources. They were met to deli. borate in what manner they should best artist in promoting the objects pursued by Mr. Cobden ; as it was clear that they could no longer suffer the pr sent corrupt system of legislation to exlst. (Hear, hear.) He bilkved that all around him were liberal men • and he bad no doubt that the people of Southwark would be glad is adopt any plan suggested them. Mr. MAL by STON briefly addressed the meeting as to the necessity of an equalisation of the bulimia of taxation and, • parliamentary reform. 'Mr. WICKHAM observed that they could never expect anything to be done for-thr emmtry until they saw men of, business representing the people in the Hoses of Commons instead of the scions of nobility, who merely looked after their own interests.

It would be precisely the IMMO with the committee—there would be very little ree , ligion left. (Applause and laughter.) It was not thought advisable to fore them all into one kind of thumb, then Why attempt to force them all into one kind of school. Milton said in his day, " Having cast off the old and wrinkled skin of our corruption, I outlive these pangs ander': young again, entering into the glorious paths of truth and prosperous vir tue, destined to become great and humble in these latter ages." And of all places in the kindgdom he would never come tadancheater to learn to shuttle on again this" old and wrinkled skin of corruption," and I. be compelled by a lave dictated by Manchester, to abide by • system of uniformity mach as centuries *go the people cast off and scattered to the winds. (Applause.) It was objected that the voluntary system was Ineffielent. Bat if time people maid not provide a sufficient number of schools, the govezammat had not the power to do so, because the government &rived 611 its funds from the people. All must doer from the people, the vast box, the great trunk, of their industrious efforts and accu mulation. (Loud applause.) Dr. HALLEY was then called upon by the chairman. He spoke at great length ail argued against goiter- mental interference both in education and religion. Educa tion, he contended, ought to be carried on upon the pi inciole of competition, and Adam Smith's doctrine, that the sehoil master must depend upon the payment of his pupils and not upon the public for support, he held to be the true founds-. ton of excellence in secular educ..tion. A stipendiary system woul I be a ruinous one ; and were it tried in any ono county of the fifty-taro of which Engler 1 was composed, it would be found that in ten pais h that empty would be morally and tocially infinitely lx low all the rest. He illustrated his argument by siting the con dition of the educational institutions both in Great Britain and America, where the stipendiary system was tried, and quoted larg-ly in support of the opinions he advanced from Ame ric in educational ?trolls. The Roy. Mr. MORLEY, one of the deputation fr-m Lon don, addressed the meeting afterwards in a few brief nn terms; and, on the motion of Mr. UADPtILD, seconded by the E. H. NOLLN, thanks were voted to the deputa tion and the chairman, and 'he prokeediop elated. IRELAND. MrsLis, A ran. 20. The result of the entferencs of liish members with Lord John ltuesA, u revealed in the " authorised " . . report, has opened a wide sluice of discussion, which his for the present overwhelmed all other topics. Among many strong remarks on the interview The Freeman's Journal has the following : No person can read even the official account of this inter view without coming to the cone:mien that it resembled more the summoning of slaves to hear the mandate of their autocrat, than a conference between a constbutional snihister and the reotesentatives of a free people. if Lsrd Joins Russell was predetermined not to listen to any ce-servs tions that the Irish members might think proper to melee, up:et what plea can he justify his having sum moned them to meet Lim? We ma wuuld he have Uwe this, would he have dated to do th 7 s with the English representatives ? Would any mildew, or cabinet of ministers, dare to summon the representatives of the English people to a " conietenee," and tell them, when they had come to that conference, that he had sum awned them for nn utter purpose than to pronounce to them his ultimatum, and then unciv;lly—we will use no wronger phrase--retire, rudely hemmed , g to such as ventured to opt; their lips, that he lied summoned them to hear, not to be hard. We believe that this conduct of the noble lord is altogether neer. eedented ; we believe that to nn body of Bien, save to Irish representatives, would ooh indignity be offered, end by none tumid it be conceived gave by a British minister. Lord Cutlareagh aftempted to expressan opinion (the offictel et porter des not deem'hind worthy even a name), but Lord J. Russe.l civilly bid him hold his tongue ! The Irish viscount, untie. d to such civility, was resolved to be beard, but Lord J. Russell determined re should net, and glided out of the room, leering the Irish lord and his brother representatives to look in each other's faces, or do whatever else the dignified reception they hod met with might solemn as most proper and becthoing. We speak not in defence or in vindication of the Irish members as a body. Some few thee, were pres.nt at the " cafe renoe"(!) who conducted themselves as lucerne men and Irish undersea. They knew how to feel as men, and u men we Sr. sure they will set; but we do protest, in the name of the Irish people, against the in dignity offered to them in the persons of their representa tives, and the direct indignity offered to the nation by corn. mendieg an answer cn such an impertant question within a period at which it would be utterly impossible there could be any convert with the constituencies or the people. If Lord John, in olwerving a constitutional form, intended to sustain its spirit, his course should have been to make this proposition prior to the recess, and not t'efer it till it would be Impossible to have any expr ession of public opinion on the subject. If he had any respect for the Irish mettle re, when he had resolved not to listen to their opinioae, instead of summoning them to a sham conference, at which he in. tended merely to Issue his mandate, be would have addressed them either by circular or from Ws place in the honee. But Lord John had neither respect for the representatives of the Irish people, nor tad he regard to the opinions of the people themselves, end, therefore, he adopted what be himself not iraptly terms his " extraordinary step." We believe, u far as the sense of the betterludging portion of the community ' has been ascertained, there can be no doubt of the instruc tions they would Jame to their representatives ' were time given for ummunication. They would accept taxation in aid, levied from fixed and capitalized property, in preference to a larger taxation en industrial capital, and on the blood, and bane, and muscle, of the industrious man. But of what avail is the opinion of the Irish people ? A few landlord par tizans in Leaden have, ere this, decided what taxation shall be impeeed, and by their decision, instead of by the wish of the people, does our meet constitutional premier seem determined to be guided. The alternative presented by Lord John of income and assessed taxes, should the rate in aid measure be let, is hardly tolerated ; aid a change of ministry ty as earnestly looked for as if men fully anticipated what they hoped. Indeed, an ideal cabinet is currently settled on. The South Dublin Union has followed the example of the North Dublin Board of Guardians, and a vote of thanke was yesterday proposed and (serried to Mr. Twistle'on. The cholera has nearly ceased at Limerick, and great joy is felt amongst the inhabitaws. It is said hut since the Ist of March there have been 4,600 deaths from cholera and dysentery at Limerick and its immediate neighbourhood. The weather has been intensely severe since last Tuesday • sleet, rain, and snow, and the temperature • bitterly ;old. The belief diffused amongst all parties is that Lord Stanley is ready to face the difficulties of office under the protection flag. Electioneering has almost com menced, and "who will stand here," and "who is not to stand there," is keenly discerned. Divers election rumours about certain ants are already in circulation. It is supposed that the same legal officials would hold office under Lord Stanley, as Sir Robert Peel himself would select. Under either a protection or a conservative regime Mr. Blaekburne would be Chan cellor, and Mr. Greene be selected as Chief Justice ot the Queen's Bench. Amongst those who are feeling the distress of the times are the monks of Mount Mellersy in the county of Waterford. They are in a miserable condition. It is thought that Bishop Denvir will be the succes sor of Dr. Crolly in the catholic primacy. He was a particular friend of the late primate, and is of moderate opinions, and conciliatory disposition.

The suppression tat tha Derby Sweeps, from which huge sums were derived in aid of the fund, led many to believe that it would be impossible to maintain the munificent bonus added to the Metropolitan Handicap, and that the meeting ia consequence wield suffer. 8o far from this, the promoters of the race worked with redoubled energy, and with such unlocked for success, that not only was the 6001. forthcoming at the proper time, but a considrrablebaluice was left over for next )eat ' s handicap. Considering the difficulties they had to contend against, this result is highly creditable tot e " Licensed Victuallers of the Metropolis," and, mortifying as the disappointment yesterday must have proud, we have no doubt it will stimulate them to per petn a race which they may fairly call their own.
