Ard be it enacted, That it shall and may be lawful for the Lord Lieutenant of Ireland, with the advice of her Majesty's Privy Council in Ireland, if he and they shall so think fit, in and by any such proclamation so to be made as aforesaid, or. by a distinct proclamation, to warn the inhabi tants of the district specified in such proclamation to be and remain within their respective places of abode at all hours between sunset and sunrise, from and after such day as shall be named therein for that purpose. 111. And be it enacted, That it shall and may be lawful for the Lord Lieutenant of Ireland, by a new proclamation to be made by and with the advice of her Majesty's Privy Council in Ireland, to revoke any proclamation issued in pursuance of this Act as to the whole or any part of the dis trict thereby proclaimed, and thereupon the original procla mation mentioned therein shall, upon a day to be specified in such new proclamation, stand and be 'evoked so far as such new proclamation shall purport to revoke the same.

And be it enacted, That every such rate shall be a poundage rate made upon an estimate of the net annual value of the, several hereditaments within the proclaimed dis trict as the same shall have been rated under the then last rate made under the said herein-before 'last-recited Acts for the relief of the destitute poor, or any of them, and that the particulars of every such rate hall be entered in a book, and shall be in the form in which rates are made under the said Acts, or any of them, or as near thereto as may be ; and the said book shall be signed by the persons or officers so to be appointed to make such rate as aforesaid, and shall, after such signature, be evidence of the truth of every particular contained therein. XIII. And be it enacted, That the said rate shall be pay able by and be levied from the actual occupiers, and not by or from the lessor or own 3r, whether the hereditaments in respect of which such rate shall be payable shall be under the value of four pounds or not.

XVI. And be it enacted, that any person who shall, within any district proclaimed under this Act, be found in any field, street, highway, or other place out of his dwelling-house or place of abode, at any time from one hour after sunset until sunrise, except upon his lawful occasions, the proof whereof shall be on the person accused, shall be deemed guilty of a misdemeanour.

THIRD REPORT OF THE SELECT COMMITTEE 04,;.`1, AIL StAYS. . . The Select Cemmittee, appointed - to consider the mode in which the House shall deal with railway Bills proposed to be submitted to the House during the present session, have further considered the matters referred to them, and agreed to the following report:— The number of petitions for railway Bills, which have been pre sented this session, have been stated to year Committee to amount to 562 ; v,z.: For Railways in England and Wales . Scotand .. • • • . Ireland .• • • • . • • As, however, many of these schemes may fail from non-compl:ance with the standing orders, the number of Bills presented to Parlia ment may possibly fall considerably short of this amount, and your Committee are of opinion that it will not be necessary or expedient in the present session of Parliament to refer mere projects to Com mittee, as was done, owing to peculiar circumstances, in the last session. From a statement prepared by the officers of the Board of Trade, it would appear that if the same principle of grouping which was adopted last year should be followed In the present session, the rail way schemes in England and Wales might be formed into 51 groups, and those for Scotland into 10 ; about 61 Select Committees would therefore be required. As the House has already ordered that all Irish railway Bills and a certain limited class of English Bills (the latter of which are in cluded in the foregoing statement) should commence in the House of Lords, it ig impossible to say how many of these may be sent down to the House of Commons. The number of- groups into which rail way schemes for the United Kingdom were divided last year was 52, but owing to various circumstances only 45 Committees appear to have actually sat. The necessity of considering so great a number of railway Bills, in addition to other private Bills, may certainly be expected to produce an unusual and inconvenient pressure upon the time of Members of the House ; but your Committee trust, that as Committees on rail way Bills may in this session begin to sit at an earlier period than in the last, it will not be founl impracticable to constitute the requisite number of Committees during the progress of the session. Under these circumstances your Committee have not ',deemed it advisable to recommend to the House to make any selection from, I or to place any limitation to the numb er of railway schemes to be submitted to the consideration of Parliament during the present session. As your Committee, however, believe that much of the time of the Select Committees on Railway Bills is consumed, with little public benefit, in minute and detailed inquiries into the amount of traffic and the probable profit to the projectors, your Committee are of opinion that the standing orders on these points should be altered, and that it should RO longer be obligatory on Committees on Railway Bills to make special reports on them. At the same time your Committee have no wish to fetter the dis cretion of the Select Committees to make such inquiries as they may judge proper with regard to population, and to the extent of accom modation that would be afforded to the public, where they consider such information to be required. Your Committee beg further to suggest, that power be given to Select Committees to refer the consideration of any unopposed Rail way Bill included in the group referred to them to the Chairmen of Ways and Means and the Members ordered to prepare and bring in the Bill, to be dealt with as other unopposed Bills February 17, 1846 •• .. 395 . • • •• 120 TUESDAY NIGHT'S GAZETTE CAMBRIDGE HOUSE, FEB. 17, 1846.

CITY, MONDAY EVANING. t TIMES.—The pressure for money has much increased in the City, and it falls in a great measure upon those who are least able to bear up against it—the second class of credits. Bills, as good as any that could be presented, which would he taken in ordinary times in pre ference to all others, have either been refused discount, or have had unreasonably hard terms imposed updn them. This is a state of things which cannot long exist without injury, and the first hint of a remedy is naturally to be looked for from those who most suffer by it. An extension of the purchases for investment on the account of the railway deposits, or such promptness of decision by the Committees of Parliament as would bring out the funds de posited into circulation again, either by employment or by re-distribu it j e s t t well money out wouldofthie make enk advancesn iist be tion from rejected lines, wou ld b e h a i led as a seasonable relief by the moneyed interest ; but as these are now :i n very limited operatio n in ?leee, 4 ia l i , f lo t m e f e . o t T h h e e r d m l t e t s o rs, of to a much greater extent were they; not restrained by their liabi lity at the shortest notice to have any amount of the railway deposits withdrawn; and any plan, therefore, far suspending that li a bilit y would produce almost immediate relief. Many of the managers of railway companies, rather than make purchases of Stock and Exchequer-bills in the market under the disadvantages lately experienced, have advised letting their deposits re main untouched, arguing that if by this course they can make no profit, they will be effectually protected against loss. Now, it has been suggested that if the Bank, departing, under this very peculiar state of things, from their usual practice, would allow only a small rate of interest upon the railway deposits, the employment of them for a fixed period would be most readily and thankfully placed at their disposal. There has occurred a kind of precedent for this in the transactions with the East India Company' a few years back, which had accumulated a large sum from the sales of their stock and goods, and other property ; and the Bank, rather than leave this to an irregular and uncertain action oh the Money-market, consented to allow interest upon it. There was much less necessity for it then than there is at the present moment, and the suggestion Is thought altogether so likely to have a beneficial e ff ec t, that hopes are expressed that the directors will entertain it. The supposed rate which ought under these circumstances to be allowed, is fixed at two per cent. ; and Rs this, with the high current rate of money, will make it a very pro fitable banking operation, it will most probably be submitted to the consideration of the board at their next meeting ; and if no rules of the Accountant-General's officeitand in the way, it is: believed to have a fair chance of adoption. Certainly ne objections to it are to be looked for on the part of the railway companies, who would, on the contrary, most of them eagerly accede to such a proposal, and grant a very . liberal limit as to time. CITY, MEM/a EVENIXG. It has ben intimated this morning that the suggestion of a payment of interest on railway deposits by the Bank, for the immediate pur pose of obviating the present great pressure for money, is one that the directors will not give the slightest countenance to. That the board should object to pay for the use of the deposits so long as they have any prospect of attaining the same end gratis, is so natural and reasonable, that nothing can be said agßiiiSt it ; hut it is obvious that if these large sums continue to be thus locked up, so that they can't be used, so much Inconvenience and mischief vrill arise as to force something of the kind upon them. Those who argue in favour of this course are not at a loss for parallel cases, even though that of the East India Company, adverted to yesterday, is put aside. The locking up of these funds is just the same thing as though the Govern ment had raised a loan 10 the same extent, and kept it undisturbed in the Bank. Something of this sort occurred in the time of the ►'est India Loan, In principle at least, though not reaching to near the same amount ; but all capitalists and dealers in money rill recollect what urgent applications were made to Mr. Spring Tice to let It out again, when an arrangement was made by which the Bank allowed interest to the Government, but took In the scrip at a turn of a quar ter per cent., by which, at that time, very large profits were roalised, and the Treasury w. 49 taxed with improvidence and waste of the public money for having allowed it ; and yet that was defended on the plea that the circulation must be relieved, or worse conse quences ensue, The present state of monetary affairs has no parallel with anything that ever existed be:ore, since banking and paper cir culation commenced ; and that the Chancellor of the Exchequer does not see this, and interpose with some recommendation which he alone can originate, is a subject of general surprise. in the City. Substantially, and apart from railway speculations, trading credits were never in a sounder condition, and yet hundreds must break down and .be rained for want of that accommodation which no banker will now give, and which has formed for years past the ruling principle of his business. There can be ne greater crai•lty than in the destruction of this useful and valuable class of men be. cause the great bulk of the community have gone mad in railway speculations, and all the funds they could scrape together are placed in close keeping, while some point of etiquette is adjusting between the Accountant-General, the railway managers; the Treasury, and the Bank of England as to the manner in which they can be made useful in the ordinary way to the service of trade. All parties seem to be rigidly bent on not mating any move at present, and this in. difference is regarded by many as the forerunner of a crisis, to meet whizh all remedy may be too late. As it is now the fashion for great authorities to change their opinion under a change of circumstances, the case is not, perhaps, yet quite hopeless. The premium on gold at Paris is 12% per mile, which at the English Stint price of 3/. 17s. logd. per ounce. for standard gold, gives an exchange of 25 46 ; and the exchange at Paris on London at short being 25 65, it follows that gold is 0.74 per cent. dearer in London than i❑ Paris. By advices from liamhurgh the price of gold is 43:ig per inark, which, at the English Mint price of W. 17s. 10340. per ounce for standard gold, gives an exchange of 13 10!i ; and the exchange at Ilanihnrgh en London at short b e i ng 13 LI, It follows that gold is 0.79 per cent. dearer In London than at Munburgh.

The Vico-Chancellor of England took causes to-day, none of whioti possessed any particulars of interest. Tl;e course of exchange at New York on LondOn is 10iiN per cent., and the par of exchange between England and ;America being 109 22 40 per cent., it follows that the exchange is 0.83 per cent. against England. But the quoted exchange at New York Wing for bills at 60 days' sight, the interest must be deducted from the above differ ence. TIM LATE TRAGEDY IN CAMBERWELL.

The SOLICITOR-GENERAL objected, and th e question wag not Cross-examined—The bodies of the letters I showed Mr. Trammell Were written by Lord Ferrers; they certainly were not written by a lady. The SOLICITOR-GENERAL then said he had a few observations to make to the Court. Owing to labs unavoidable absence for the last two days lie had heard nothing of four letters which were produced yesterday by his Learned Friend the Attorney-General on behalf Of the defendant, and it was not until this morning, and after hi. Lordship had taken his seat on the bench, `that he had heard of them. Those letters had also corm with equal sttrpa upon the respectable attorney conducting the eausq Th e the plaintiff, as well as upon the respectable Tamp a of the young lady herself. Therefore, at this most myeesef au , part of this most mysterious ease, and taking into eonsid.arsitios the et traordinary fact that those tour letters had been Identified by the mother of the lady herself, and that they had come by surprise upon not only the parties he had mentioned, but likewlseupon his Lesritesi Friends who were assisting him. Under these eircurnstances he would pray his Lordship would be so kind as to allow him to with draw from the case. The ATTORNEY-GENERAL said lie had only an observation to make. He kad no objection to his Learned Friend adopting this course ; but he would pray that th ose f our letters should be impounded, and that the handkerchiefs should also he placed in the custody of the officer of the Court.
