Stock, both the expediency and the wisdom of refusing to acquiesce in the proposal now made to them. The expediency of the refusal would, of course, consist in thereby ensuring to the proprietor his full interest at 5 per Cent. and the wisdom, I would venture to add, musk be found in the necessity which a pretty unanimous refusal would create for something like a real and efficient reduction in the ex penses of Government.—lf the independent part of the Press will but take this matter of the 5 per Cents. up, both boldly 'and steadily, there can be little doubt of the measure now proposed failing entirely. When, however, taxation is once reduced to its lowest possible point, by cutting down to the lowest rate the Civii and Military Expenditure of the Country, it will then ill-become any man to raise his voice against the reduction of the 5 per Cents. or of any other Stock.—lt is the Press, and the Press alone, which can unite the holders of the 5 per Cents. and induce them to act almost unanimously in a rejection of the offer of my Lord Lrna- Poor and the enAxcet.con of the Fateuittuss.—l am, Sir, your snoq obedient humble servant, A.

Last night the Earl of LtveapooL exhibited his view of the state of the country in the House of Lords. The speech of his Lordship was but an im proved version of the expose of the Marquis of Lox- DONDERRY on a former evening in the other House; it was, however, much more explicit in its details, more guarded in its assertions, and was freed from those peculiarities of expression with which the Se cretary for Foreign Affairs enriches the English lan guage. The Population, the Saving Banks, the Ex ports and linports, and the state of the Revenue, were all brought forward by the Noble Earl as proofs of our wealth, and of the consolatory, if not flourish ing state of the country. The Agricultural Distress was the next subject, but the space we have devoted to the debates, precludes us from entering at length into an examination of the views of his Lordship on this subject; we shall, however, notice one expression. The Noble Earl is represented to have said, that " the true cause of the agricultural distress was, that there was not only a superabundance here, but in every country in Europe." Without remarking on the impiety of such an asser tion (for we really cannot but consider it such), we will give an anticipated commentary on it from an Irish newspaper. The Mayo Constitution says: " The wretchedness and poverty which exist at present in and about this town exceed belief, and the prospect for the spring and summer is dismal indeed. It is not uncommon to see a man spending the greater part of a day in re-digging ground from which potatoes had been dug in the season, and taking home in the evening the few that, in this second search, he dixovers in the earth, as the only sustenance which he can provide fora famishing family." We would ask the Noble Lord to reconcile this statement with his own assertion ; and before he again complains of the bounty of PROVIDENCE, assure him self that every human being in his Majesty's domi niotis has " bread enough, and to spare." With what face can his Lordship declare that we have a super abundance, while the wretched poor of an integral part of the United Kingdom are ransacking the ground for the remains of last year's produce, glad to feed their starving families, not with meat—not with grain of any kind, but with the waste of the potatoe-field— with the very husks that the swine do eat; while the prodigal sons of the Administration are rioting in the spoils of the public treasury ? Ministers, it would seem, still adhere to the plan or borrowing money to lend to the Agriculturists. We have already stated our objections to the plan; and cannot conceive for what purpose it is adopted, unless to quiet the landed interest, which has become rather clamorous of late, and which possesses some influence in both Houses of Parliament. The Committee on Agriculture met on Friday last; and again on Monday, when the Marquis of LONDONDERRY made along speech, and brought for ward a graduated scale of protecting duties ; that is to say—a new Corn Bill ; somewhat in accordance with the plan recommended in the Report of last year. The propositions.of the Noble Lord are said to b e al fibllows: Open Ports for wheat at 675. per quarter, with a duty of 15s. per quarter certain, and a floating duty, in addition, of Ss. per quar t e r, I',,r the first three months, if the price does not rise above 725. per quirtcr. From 72,. per quarter to 80s. a duty of 10s. per quarter. From 60s. per quarter to 85,. a duty of ss. latter. Above 85s. per quarter a duty of ls.per quarter." plan, we suspect, will not give much satisfac- per quail • ; • i. i I. F. t „ l!'• l ,i:: Fi Jil h ,: I - , ..„,-. • . '• !_ • • • •‘1., - ` -• ss 4 • " AN 1^ ' 4 tins: that busy Gentleman, the Chairman the Affairs his Protest" at make the following extract : " The loweting the restriction k. laying a duty of only 15s. per quarter, to pay the whole duty, except is. per porter, of the growers here, in lowering the restriction price, and will not amount to any impediment to import; because, the ability of the importer to sell is not regulated by_ the cost of production in this country, but the cost of production abroad. ' Thus, ea an average of years, wheat can be delivered in London at 355. per quarter. Add the duty 15s. makes 60s. per quarters' and thus foreign wheat can be always brought to market at 50s. per quarter by the importer, to the ruin of the grown% here, when the home price shall be 67 shillings per quarter.-..„ Thus the growers here must be sacrificed by •such a system,. which is founded on feeding the population of ihis country arti ficially cheap, at the expense of every man embarked in agrical. tare, and paying the taxes consequent on a residence in die Country. But with our present taxation, 805. per quarter is tie minimum at which wheat can be grown on an average Of years in this country, and therefore, on the first indication of a failing crop here, the price must necessarily instantly rise above 84s. and the previous gradations will only present so many straws to protect the growers,while the self-same inundation of grain as was experienced in 1818.19 will again stock the market for three years." The French Papers of Sunday are chiefly occupied with the law proceedings on the subject of BONA- , PANTIE'S will; the case was opened on Saturday, and a large auditory were anxious to hear the proceed ings, when the King's Counsel rose, and strangely dis appointed the curious spectator's by the ibllowing mo tion r—ig As the .publicity of this cause might bring with it serious inconveniences, we require that it be pleaded with closed doors, on the day which it shall please the Court to determine."—The Court being of opinion that the public discussion of this cause would lead to serious inconveniences, ordered that the plead- ings should take place with closed doors on Monday. M. Dun', formerly an Officer of Cavalry, and at present merchant at Nantes, has been arrested by the gendarmerie, and confined in the priinn at Bouffray, as implicated in the plot some time since discovered in that city. The Emperor of RU3III at, to promote the commerce of Georgia, has addressed an Ukase to General Irica- MA LOFF, Governor of that province, granting certain immunities and privileges for the space of ten years, to such merchants, Russian or foreign, as shall form commercial establishments there. Extract of a letter from Charleston, dated Janu ary 21 :—" It is reported here that the French Go vernment has determined to sond Commissioners to Hayti, to treat with the existing Authorities there, and it is expected that our Government will take suitable measures to secure every commercial privi lege at that important Island which may be granted to French, British, or any other nation."

The Common Seemwer said, he owed his existence to tic! wry sierriful verdict of the Jury, and transported hhn for life. Amp* iluggen, aged 42, was indicted for stealing a qua mil of leatbw, the property of W. Guelder. The only evidence against the prisoner was that of a boy Mina Lorimer, who admitted, that he gave the 'prisoner the bederJbeet tike Ow Shoe his own father workt d, and that he at ant• my w heat it until be himself wa s t a k en i nto eiNras she thief Coaceast Swaimr directed an acquittal; observing, that &wow be dangerous to convict a man of felony upon the on testimony of a boy, who, upon his own stewing, was a and had rob6ed the employer of his own f a t h er . The Jury returned a verdict of—Nut Gaily. Mr. Ammons requested, that the Court would allow the 'trial of the last prisoner's daughter, a child of six y ears o f age, :zeted who had been committed on a similar charge, to come on next. The Court consented; and JU lieggeU, aged six years, was put to the bar, upon are indictment charging her with stealing one piece of leather, value 6s. the property of W. Guelder. This case also rested solely upon the evidence of the boy T. rimer; and Mr. Gadder being called, said he would not believe him upon his oath. The Common Sramrawr said, the law presumed that a child of the tender age of six years had not the capability of knowing right from wrong; and even if that were not the ease here, the Jun , could not convict upon the evidence of that boy. The Jury found the prisoner —Nat Guilty. .. Mr. Anommus, addressing the Court, said, he was happy to be able to state, that the mischief which mi g ht h ave accrued from the commi ttal of so young a child to Newgate, had been nennteracted by the humane conduct of Mr. Brown, the G.ver sec of that prison, who had placed her under the care of a 1 taw, and had kept her separate from other prisoners. The Common SiRJZANT said, Mr.. Brown had acted as he uni tohnly did, in a most praiseworthy manner. Mr. AbCiLPHUS said, the Magistrate who committed such a child ought not to remain in the Commission another moment. A Colonel in the Army informed the Court that he came to speak to the character of Joseph Huggett, who had served under him for 17 years, and was a brave and honourable soldier. Mr. Guelder applied to have the boy Lorimer detained on a charge of felony, but was told he must apply to a Magistrate.

A numerous Meeting of the Magistracy of the County of Cork was held on Thursday last, to consi der the expediency of addressing the LORD Ltarrz- NANT to extend the Insurrection Act to that County. A Privy Council assembled at the Castle on Tues day last, when it was determined to place the City and County of Limerick -under the operation of the Insurrection Act. SPECIAL COMMISSION AT CORK. Thursday last, John Leary and Garrett Cotter were found guilty of tendering unlawful oaths, and for having, during the night of the 15th of January last, assisted in compelling one Richard Reardon to quit his farm. James Carill y was next arraigned and found guilty, for having, with several others not in custody, as saulted and compelled Thomas Evans to deliver up to them a sword. Denis Cronin, Edward Brien, Jeremiah Leary, and Denis Kelly, were indicted under the Whiteboy Act, for unlawfully assembling on the 21st of January last, and firing on the Right Hon. Richard Earl of Bantry, and several Ma g istrates at the head of a civil and military force. The two former were found guilty, and the two latter acquitted. Cronin, how ever, was recommended to mercy on the plea of the evidence of Mr. James Barry, who deposed, that he a was subject to fits, harmless, quiet, and simple, and had always conducted himself industriously and peaceably." Daniel Sullivan, a young boy, was tried for having been, with many others who were armed, unlawfully assembled oft-the 26th of January last. The evidence was conclusive in the Lid's favour, and he was, con sequently acquitted. The Court then adjourned to the following day; Friday, Cornelius Rylahan, John Mahony, Daniel Brien, John Rylahan, and Denis Moynanan, were tried on an indictment charging them with aiding in the murder of Hugh Cologan, on the 31st of January last, when the Churchtowu Barracks were burned by a party of the Whiteboys, and two police officers murdered. The three first-mentioned prisoners were found guilty, and the two List acquitted. Saturday, Roger Eliffernan was tried and found guilty of having sold ammunition to the Whiteboys, which by a Sature of the 27th of Geo. 111. is declared to be a capital offence. This was the first conviction, under the Act. SENTENCE OF DEATH PASSED ON THIRTY-FIVE' WHITEIJOYS. While the Jury who tried the above case were de liberating on their verdict, the several prisoners who had been convicted during the Commission were brought to the Bar, to be sentenced, which painful duty was performed by Baron M , CLELLAND, with an impressive solemnity. A selection, it was stated from the Bench, was intended to be made from these persons for the clemency of Government, which was entirely to depend on the future disposition and con duct of the peasantry of the county. The verdict in the last repotted case not having been returned when these awful proceedings were going on, it devolved upon Mr. Justice.bloonz to pass sentence upon the three men convicted, which he did with solemn effect, and ordered them for exe cution on Monday last, their bodies to be dissected and anatomised. The Conrt then adjourned. The following account of the state of Tipperary appears in the Limerick Chronicle of Wednesday :-1 " Last Saturday, at so early an hour as four o'clock in the evening, a barbarous murder was committed iu the streets of Tipperary, on a man of the name oti .
