IMPERIAL PARLIAMENT. ROUSE OF COMMONS, May 5. (Continued from our Afternoon Edition of yesterday.) TENANT RIGHT (IRELAND) BILL.—AD - JkOURNED DEBATE. On the reading of the order of the day for the resump tion of this debate, Mr. CONOLLY said that he felt that he was justified in taking the course which he had pursued on a former occasion, as in his opinion the House was then about to divide on this Bill on a false issue. The Bill in his opinion was nothing more than a system of compulsory valuation, w ithout giving the landlord any security er his rights. Certainly the word compensation was used very fre quently in the Bill, but the system of arbitration, by which a fair compensation was to be arrived at, was imperfect and never could be worked satisfactorily. He could scarcely believe that Hon. Gentlemen opposite wished to carry this Bill, for he could not insult their common sense so far as to suppose that they would have introduced such a Bill had they wished to have it car ried. It embodied a principle which was opposed to the practise of England, and he thought of Ireland too. He had not only been an advocate of compensation for im provement, but he had acted upon it, and he thought he had some right to speak on the subject.—(Hear.) This Bill was introduced to keep up the cry in Ireland, not to settle the question between landlord and tenant, but to unsettle it. This was a course which was, not honest by those who advocated tenant right, not honest by this House, and not even by the supporters of this Bill. He would go on now to point out what tenant -right really was. The tenant had a perfect right to sell his improvements to any one whom the landlord might ap point. Tenant right did not depend upon tenure at all, for the tenant at rill had jest as many rights as the tenant at lease; and he was at perfect liberty, if he so thought fit, to sell his improvements to the irceming tenant. Tenant right, how er, differed under different circumstances; for fEstance, tenant right on one estate might extend to twenty years' purchase, while in the earsadjoining est lt de ate it might not reach to moretthan two y' purchase. pended upon the feelings and situation of the landlord whether tenant right was high or low. Tenant right was nothing less than the good will of the tenant, and when the tenant bad the confidence of his landlord it ranged very high, as indeed was the case in the north of Ireland. And yet the supporters of this Bill came forward to abase tne landlords of Ulster.—(Hear, hear.) Tenant right was nothing less than one of mutual confi dence between the landlord and tenant, and it wee im possible to deal with it by legislative enactments. On tine contrary, a system of legislation proposed by the D m wo uld undermine such confidence, and he appealed to Irish Members, as their countryman, to pause before they adep ed this Bill. Ia not doing so they would not only be Benne injudiciously, but iiActing a great injustice upon the Isndsd interest of Irelend, and lie hoped the kiouse would not consent to interfere with the system of tenant right that at present prevailed in Ireland, which be was happy to say wes the result of a long continu ance of peace. This Bill, in fact. would increase the civil and religious descend which reigned in the north of Ireland, for the sake of promoting some paltry elec tienfering scheme nr other. The material interest and the prosperi'y of Ireland xe Tilted that this Bill should be thrown our, and ho should give it his most deter mined epp en—(Hear.) Mr. MONSELL was not dieposel to underrate the imprtauce of th , s, question, and he for one did not regret that the debate had been adjourned. The tenant right which the last spealt. - 1 . h •.d referred to prevailed in Ulster, and there great prosperity existed, but the same confi lence or prosperity was not to be found else where, and heeee arose the neeeesity for a Bill of this nature.—(Elean h fie was by no means anxious to see a system of compulsory compensation established, but no such sptem was involved in this Bill; and he was, therefore, at a loss to node-sten:l why it should be opposed on that ground.—(Hear, hear.) He would, if the House would permit him, cell attention to the urgency of this ea te. The existint law relating to land in Ireland had worked badly in all times and under all circumstances, as would be found by a re ference to the writings et Dean Sr i't, Arthur Young, Lord Clara, and other writers, who had cemmented upon the social condition of the tenant-farmers of Ireland. —(Hear, hear.) M et ef the crimes and evils w 'etch Ireland had suffered from might be traced to some dispute about the occupwion or letting of land, and therefore the inference appeared t hnn to he obvious that the system ought to be altfaro.l, the House thought it was the disposition of to ; ele, and not the defective state of th,: law, tha - , ti ,; the cause of all their miseries. —(Hear, hear) He, howevee, cold see nothing in the Irish character to Mace the former belief, for directly the Irishman got out of his own country ho became an enterprising man, and emi nently industrious and contented.—(Hear, hear.) All authorities concurred in this opinion, and if they could be consilted he had no doubt that they would agree with, him that to make the Irishman as estimable in his own country, they mast confer upon him the ad vantages of the principle contained in this Bill.—(Hear, hear.) In theory the existing Irish system was the same BS that which prevailed in England, but the mistortune was, that it, Ireland it was not put into practice, and all he wanted was that the same practical privileges should be coseeded to the Irish tenant farmer that were enjoyed by the English tenant-farmer. —(Hear, hear.) In England and in France no landlord could eject any tenant without compensating him for the improvements; and the same system prevailed if .Den mark, Massachusetts, a new country, and several European States, and he was at a loss to understand why he same principle could not be enforced for Ireland ley legislative enactment.—(Hear, hear.) Lord NA AS was anxious to offer a very few observa tions upon this very important questiun before the Home came to a decision.—(Cries of " Hear, hear.") He admitted - that the principle of compensation was, to some extent, to be found in this Bill, but it 1 was introduced as a peg to hang upon certain other principles of an exceedingly dangerous character. — (Hear, hear.) The principal feature of this Bill was not compensation, but it was that part of it which would hereafter, if it was carried, force the landlord to submit his rents to the arbitration of a body of tenants.—(Hear.) Now, he for one, nev, r could consent to any such prin ciple of law; it existed in no country on the face of the globe, that he was acquainted with; and as it was totally at variance with the rights of property, he mutt call upon the House to reject the Bill.—(Hear, hear.) Compensation, he repeated, was not, in fact, the leading principle of this Bill.—(Hear, hear.) The Bill introduced by the Hon. Member same years ago was only part of the present Bill. The present Bill was adapted to embody the Tenant League in Ire land, whose principles the Noble Lord considered to be as dangerous as the wildest ones advanced during the storms of the French revolution. In the year 1551 a speech was made by a reverend gentleman in Ireland, in which an opinion was advanced that when a landlord failed to perform his duty he ought to be removed. Another reverend gentleman had stated that landlords were only tolerated for the benefit of the People, and when they were found net to be beneficial they should be removed. The Noble Lord had many other proofs that the principle of this Bill was to deprive the landlord of all power.—{" No," from the Opposition.) ,43 1_ t was recited that a tenant should not Le evicted unless received compensation or was allowed to sell his in terest to a solvent Mcnant • but that was the custom of the country new, and the Bill ' proposed to make that compul sory which hitherto was optional on the art of the land first lord. The and second clauses were no thin more than an embodiu te: s t of the favourite dogmas or the tenant league, an d of tutl.he theory of Mr. Rutherford, that the property landlordga d was the mere land in i - s barren state, mk t the tenant's property con sisted of all th e additional value which had been given to it by ewe s the Bill was compulsory a e l° l l3 ' ace. The principle of and te a ,of rent, which was novel in legislation, would did not think a principle so unjust wou ld eve r be entertained b y d b the House .—( Hear , hear.)

The proviion_s of the Bill would, if put into operation, husbandry , a direct and bad effect upon Irish usbanary, and would noon reduce the country to a des ert. It seemed to him t hat the Gentlemen opposite had , entirely overl ooked that large, poor, and most m iserable class of th e p o l e who had b orne the brunt of the famine, and were as much entitled to consideration as the tenant. farmers, (Hear hear.) No provis ion ndust!y;both the made to enable the l a bouring man, o n whose tenant and landlord really lived, to have a fair valuation for his day's work. This, there fore, was an utterly ex. elusive an d sel fi s h measure, designed for the benefit of one class at the expense of ants _ they. He believed the Bill would never pass; but he feared great injury would be in fl icted on Ireland by liG a• Members opposite by continuing the present agitation, and hoide n out to tenant -farmers hopes which the knew eould never be fulfilled.—(Hear, hear.) Ile appealed to them to pause ere they pro ceeded further in raising the expectations of a credulous anal excit34?e, people.--(Cheers.) Mr. G. H. MOORE observed that the Noble Lord had alma, as he-woulti-frenl-ped hot iron, from adverting to the general principle of the Bill.—(Herr, bear.) He thought that that no objection to t h e details ought to operate as a bar to the farther progress of the Bill, because they might easily be amended in Commit tendio as to meet the views of the House. Last year they went into Committee on the Ecclesiastical Titles Bill, w i t h the perfect foreknowledge that nearly every word would be amended in Committee. The only ob servation made by the Noble Lord as to the principle applied likewise to the principle of every other Bill. —(Hear, hear.) He said that our former legislation on.- the subject consisted of a heterogeneous and anomalous code of laws, and that the present Bill did nato reveal, amend, or consolidate any of them; but on aulta:ubs of legislation on which we legislated there was a great legislation left behind which it was necessary should Some The prindoe d a y t receive the attention of Parliament. pro ice of the featu re of the debate on the Bill was the a comprehteteo-nee. Attorney -General for Ireland to intro duceeßill on tenant right; confessed the anteced ents of that Learned Gentle him to hope for much. The landlords of Ireland were aliens in blood and feel ingoftohtihterap:6l: deacendant3 convict* co untry, while the tenants were The t so wr 'se onPosed each oth e r aliens to the land. II lion of each sid o none e wore int er i or t er, in honour though some por rosity, and wort h ; but the y were the victims of , a c gorn ene- bisSed systeni n that had perverted the instincts of their common nature.—(Hear, hear.) All the improvements which had been effected of late years on the land were the unaided work of the tenant, but they had been swal lowed up in the vortex called property, and the tenant remained without remuneration for his labour, let alone compensation for his fences and drainage. — (Hear.) The fruitfulness of the land, indeed, depended in a great measure upon the tenant; he did all the work of the estate, and at length having created a little estate upon the earth's surface, he finds at the end of a long and labcrious life the inheritance of his children snatched from him by his landlord.—(Hear, hear.) Mr. CONOLLY—What! is he turned out? Mr. MOORE said—Yes; he was either turned out, or he was forced to pay an increased rent for the property which his own hands had rendered fertile.— (Hear, hear.) As the law stood, a man hired a farm for twenty-one years, but it gave him no compensation when he went out for his improvements, nor provided that he should obtain a renewal of his lease upon just and equitable terms.—(Hear, hear.) In fact, the law was made by landlords for the benefit of themselves, and until the Legislature changed the system there woald be no hope of peace and prospe rity for Ireland.—(Hear, hear.) Sir W. SOMERVILLE said the last speaker had carefully avoided both the principle and the details of the Bill. Now it was absolutely necessary, for the sake of Ireiand's prosperity, that they should take a practical view of this question, and having given it all the consideration be could he could arrive at no other conclusion than that it was his duty to resist the second reading.—(Hear, bear.) He could not agree with its principle, though he might be disposed to acquiesce in some of its details, and there was certainly no alternative open to him but to oppose it. He had taken a part before now in the endeavours that were being made to settle this question, and he could assure the House and the country that it was his anxious desire to see it speedily set at rest. One of the principal obstacles in the way of its settlement was this—they were endeavouring to do by Act of Par liament whatcould only be accomplished by mutual agree ment between the landlord and tenant. This Bill, like its predecessor, was intended to be retrospective as well as prospective, and if it it were carried the effect would be that it would forcibly annul existing contracts which were recognised, and could, if necessary, be enforced by the law.—(Hear.) He, therefore, deprecated both the introduction of the Bill and the agitation that was being kept up about it out of doors; but it was said the Bill met with the universal approba tion of the tenantry of Ireland.—(llear, hear.) It, how ever, did not seek to introduce the tenant right of Ulster into other parts of Ireland, but wont upon a compulsory scheme, elaborated in a long series of clauses that con tained matter for a lawsuit almost in every line. Its definition of right on either shie was uncertain and defec!ive, and if the Bill passed its only effect would be to give rise to endless disputes between landlord and tenant, aeul ultimately to react with tenfold force against the interest of the tenaut —(Hear, hear.) He therefore hoped the bore would reject the measure, and leave it far the Government to dispoee in future of this difficult question.—(Hear, hear.) Mr. REYNOLDS regretted that the five years which he had devoted to the office of Chief Secretary for Ire -1 and had not enabled the Right Honourable Baronet to make a more practical speech on the subject of this important Bill. For his part be did not represent an agri cultural constituency, but he knew that a large meeting of the electors of Dublin had been held, and they had unani mously agrez d to petition Parliament in favour of this Bill. —(Hear, hear.) The Bill bore the indorsements of two of the most distinguished Irish lawyers, and yet the Hon. lember for Donegal could find no other compliment for it than this—it was a mere piece of waste paper; but he could assure the House that it was no such thing. —(Seas, hear.) It was a most valuable measure, 1 and in spite of the misrepresentation which had heen made scout the contents of the Bill he was convinced the Legislature would think with him, if they would take the trouble to look carelully into Ithe matter.—({fear, bear.) The past Watt ry of this trevion was wrileen in blood; for no outrage which had occurred in Ireland during the last hundred years (teed its origin to anything else but disputes about the tenure of land,—(Eleer.) The principle of this Bill was noihieg less than this—it secured compensation to the outgoing tenant for substantial improvements, and unless the House was prepared to leave this question unsettled for ever, they wool I take care to pass the Bill.—(Uaar, hear.) But it was said the Right Hon. the Attorney-General for Ireland was going to take the matter up, but, then, what security had he that the Right Hon. Gentleman would not be raised to the bench before next session? No man desired to see his elevation more than he did, but in a question of this momentous importance there ought to be some guarantee extorted from the Government that they would be re sponsible for the introduction of the Right Honourable Gentleman's measure before they consented to give up r this Bill.—(Hear, hear.) The state of affairs in Ireland was so unsettled that the Bank of Ireland, which had pow, r to issue seven millions' worth of paper without having it represented by gold, could only afford to issue five millions, so dry were the pro ductive resources of the country.—(Hour, hear.) This he believed resulted from the absence of a tenant-right prevailing all over Ireland ; for, according to the re turn of sales in the lecumbered Estates Courts, fewer sales had proceeded from Ulster, where, there was a tenant-right, than from any other part of Ireland. In fact, the majority of the sales proceeded from places where there was no such thing as tenant-right, and he thought this was a pretty conclusive proof that that part of the country was the best off which enjoyed tenant-right.—(Hear, hear.) Well, then, ought not that fact to make them pause before they consented throw out this Bill and plunge Ireland into an endless slid painful agitation?--(ffedr, bear.) Lord CLAUDE HAMILTON said the supporters of this Bill had not a leg to stand on, when argument and not declamation was brought to bear upon the question.—(Hear.) The Bill was advocated for no other but electioneering purposes; and he hoped the House would not allow itself to be led away by the declamatory matter which had been inspirited into this discussion. The most dangerous and revolutionary principles were involved in the Bill, which would inflict great injustice upon the poor labourers and cottiers in the country. H e candidly confessed that he did not think so un constitutional, barbarous, and unjust a measure emanated from the Hon. Member for Rochdale. It was a mass of inchoate legislation, which would peril the rights of property and the fruits of industry. The real author of the Bill was not the Hon. Member, but the Rev. Mr. Rutherford.—(Cries of " Hear, hear.") It was impossible to disguise the fact that the real object cf the measure was to rob the landlord and to spoliate the rights of the cottier and the labourer. He had watched the unprincipled agitation of the Tenant League, who promoted the Bill, and he declared it to be only a recipe of the old repeal agitation, the same dema gogues and the same tactics for procuring money being adopted in the one as in the other.—(Divide.) Mr. Rutherford said 'he only recognised the right of landlords as consisting of land in its wilderness state, and he advised the tenantry to combine and strike, observing that if they did so the landlords would soon have to enter the poor-house.— (Divide.) He invited the House to reject the Bill, which he characterised as an insult to Ireland. Mr. NAPIER said, as an independent Member of the House ho had devoted his attention for two years to this important question with the view of producing a good landlord and tenant cede, which he believed was essen tially connected with the well-being of Ireland. He had now three draft Bills prepared —the first consolidating about 70 old statutes, the second containing a classifica tion of leasing powers, and the third with regard to com pensation. They were at present under the consideration cf the Government, but it was apparent they could not be calmly and dispassioßately discussed during the pre sent session. In proposing them he had no i ntent i on whatever of using them for election purposes. It was his ambition, before he retired from the House, to pass as perfect and as just a law for regulating the relations of landlord and tenant as it was possible to devise. Mr. S. CR A.WFORD replied, and the House di vided, when there appeared — For the second reading Against it ...

Mr. Gibbons heard a cry raised that some one was in the water, and, rushing to the . bank, he leaped in where the depth of water was about eight feet. The woman was saved by seizing the hook of a stick held out to her, but Mr. Gibbons was carried into the middle of the stream, beyond the reach of assistance, and he sank. The body was not recovered for half an hour, and all means for resuscitation were then unavailing.

And the Master-General of the Ordnance is pleased to allow that the quantity of gunpowder to be kept . in the new floating magazines, at Liverpool, may b e in creased from 10,000 t o 15,000 barrels, of 1001 ba. eac h. By order of the Master-General, W. COTTON. HORRIBLE STORY. The Bordeaux journals contain the following hor rible story :—At the end of October last a sum of 900 f. was 'stolen from the House of M. Mane, an avonf of Bazas; the thieves being a public-house keeper and his wife, a peasant, and M. Mano's servant. Afte r t h e ro bb ery the thieves went to the public-house of the married couple, which is situated at some little distance from the town, and partook of breakfast. In that house lived a girl of the town named Annette. Whilst the parties were at table, they complained bitterly that they had only been able to steal 900 f. though they knew that M. Mano had 10,0001. in his possession, that sum having been deposited with him the day before. On this Annette reproached them for what they had done. " I am only a loose woman," said she, " and yet I would never commit a robbery." This declaration terrified the thieves, and to prevent the girl from denounci ng t h em , they resolved to kill her. Meantime th e gendarmes having obtained information of the robbery commenced a search after the thieves, and a day or two after they made a descent in the public-house, which was one of notoriously bad character. One of the four persons was arrested on suspicion of being the thief. Not seeing Annette, the gendarmes asked what had be come of her, and the public-house keeper replied that she had b een spending some d a ys with her f am il y , an d had afterwards left for England. Things remained in this state until Easter Monday, when the rumour spread in the t own that Annette ha d b een mur d ere d . It ap peared on in qu i ry that the son, aged between 13 and 14, of the public-house keeper, had, whilst playing in the house with some b oys, po i n t e d t o a large iro n p o t, and said, " I shouldn't like to eat anything cooked in that Pet." " Why so?" he was asked. " Because it was in it my father cook e d A nnet t e !" O n this the boys left him, saying, " As your father killed Annette, we will not play with you!" atd they on tho following da y re rused to a ll ow h i m to j o i n their games . When the boy's strange remark was mentioned to the gend armes, the y at once proceeded to arrest his father and mother. They then called on him to tell all ho knew. He said he knew nothing, and denied that he had used the lan guage ascribed to him. Tho gendarmes, to frighten L him, placed ha n d cu ff s on him, and threaten ed to convey nim tt , prison. He then made this statement :—" On the evenic after the robbery I beard a piercing cry up stairs, and I went up. I opened the door of a room, and eaw the body of Annette lying on the bed Without movement. I wanted to go in, but the persons who were there prevented me; and the peasant, one of them, pushed me away; and, giving: me four sous, said—' We don't want yon—here are four sous—be off with you!' I went away. In tho night the dead body of Annette was conveyed down stairs, and her murderers deliberated as to what should be done with it. One suggested that it should be placed in a hole to be made in the wall, and that the: hole should be plastered up; but this was ob jected to, on the ground that the freshness of the mortar would attract attention, and that besides the corpse would cause a strong stench. At length it was resolved to cut the body in pieces, to separate the flesh from the I bones; to boil the fle s h in a pot, a nd g iv e it to the pigs to eat, and to burn the bones to ashes. This was done. The bones, to prevent any smell, were steeped in quick lime before being burned. The pigs devoured the boiled flesh with voracity, and some of them died after from excess. My father and mother, the peasant, and M. Nlano's servant, took part in this horrible affair." The law authorities are now making a searching investiga tion; they have already discovered the clothes of the girl, and in the ashes of the grate a human tooth. The ashes have been carefully collected, and are to be analysed by chemists. The sensation which the affair has created in the peaceable town of Bazas is immense. RECEPTION OF ROSAS. With undeniable consistency Rosas has been received with all honours under the Government whose head rebuked the press for its strictures on the usurpation and tyranny of Louis Napoleon. The Port Admire' of Plymouth, Sir Jan Oraaaanney, who was so remiss and backward in the deplorable case of the Amazon, was all on the alert to receive and honour the deposed tyrant Rosas. Zeal for humanity was not the thing required for this occasion, and the peculiar zeal not for humanity was not wanting. All tee authorities were in spired with the same zeal and nothing but sickness pre vented the District Commander of the Forces from pay ing him homage. ROS4e3 letter of recommendation are writen in characters of blood, he comes to our asylum with credentials of criminality hardly to be paralleled in atrocity; a place of shelter was his due as an exile, but that is not what has been assigned to him, but a place of honour. Marvellous has been the eagerness of Eoge lish gentlemen, high in military and naval authority, to grasp the blood-stained hand. In remarking on the at tack on Ilaynau we raised the question whether the frequent example of the honour paid by the higher classes to unworthy notoriety of any kind might not ac. count for the outrage against the Austrian savage, the sentiment provoked in many an uncultivated but honest nature being, "If no one will let this man know what is thought of his conduct, I will. He shall not get off with nothing but compliments and civilities." But there could be none of this feeling if the sense of a malefactor's offences was marked by the coldness and neglect of the class of society with which his intercourse lay. The Plymouth authorities doing honour to Roses, must suffer much. in the comparison with the draymen of Bankside mobbing llaynau. There was an honest sentiment at the bottom of the one fault, there is nothing but guilty sympathy in the other, unless it be servility to a Govern ment which is supposed to favour the instruments of despotism in every part of the world.—Examiner. THE FLIGHT OF ROSAS. (FROM A PRIVATE LETTER.) BUENOS AYRES, MARCH 2.—Since I wrote last we have experienced a complete revolution, as you have no doubt heard ere this from Rosas or tho officers of the Conflict, which was to convey him to England. ln the concluding part of my last letter I told you, I think, that on Saturday, the 31st of January, the vanguard of Rosas's army, consisting of some 6,000 men, was completely routed by a email number of Ut coize's troops on the fields of Alvarez, near the bridge of Marques, about 20 miles from here. The next day (Sunday) Roses led his troops from their encampment of Santos Lugarez (4 leagues from this) to a spot midway between the village of Moron and the former place, little more than a league from each, and there awaited the approach of the. enemy, who was advancing straight towards the city from the bridge of Marques. The Sunday passed over in town very quietly till the evening, when, the removal of some cannon into the fort seemed to cause a little sensation. A general impres sion prevailed that a portion of the army had expo reenced some reverse the day before, but nothing cer tain was known upon the matter, nor as to the posi tions of the respec t iv e armies. onday passed in the same way. People went about their ordinary occupations as usual, and there were no indications of the approach ing change. About daybreak on Tuesday morning (the 3d) a distant sound of cannon was heard, but did not scene to create any sensation. At nine o'clock, how ever, a rumour began to circulate that a battle had been fought on the plains of Moron, in which Roses was defeated, and that his troops were in flight for the city. Immediately the place assumed the appearance of great excitement, which was increased by the firing of three guns from the fort (by order of General Manzilla the governor of the town), the signal of martial law. Every shop was immediately shut, and the people con gregated in smell groups in the streets. About 11, ca valry soldiers, by twos and threes, came galloping through the town, confirming the report of the defeat. As the day wore on they continued to come in great numbers, making the best of their way through the town towards the south, dispersing immediately to their own homes. At twelve the militia of the town marched from their barracks, and were posted with arms and ammunition on the flat tops of the houses, ready to fire upon any troops entering the city. Our house has a sloping roof, and therefore we had not any of these gentry, but the house opposite had a dozen, and so of others. At the entrances of all the streets leading to the great square cannon were placed, and trenches, about three feet deep, with a breastwork formed of the earth and stones and yerba (a kind of tea from Paraguay), sewn up in hide 3. These barricades would have been little obstacles to the approach of in fantry, and would, perhaps, have made a Parisian laugh, but they would have retarded the cavalry considerably. All these measures looked as if an attempt was about to be made to defend the town, but no such intention was over entertained by Manzilla, who about 5 o'clock in the afternoon, communicated to the foreign Ministers that he had only 2,000 militia to oppose the invading army, and therefore requested them to endeavour to make to n(, (Palermo U do r terms with the conqueror for the cit y .

It is supposed that (Pay ne) h h a i s d w h y r h d we t a h ws aats found s ah he must have fallen from his horse in a swoon from loss of blood. He was immediately taken on board his vessel, but died in about two hours from loss of blood. Bat it is time I should give some account of the battle, particulars of which did not reach us for some days afterwards. Rosas, as I said, led out his troops on Sunday after noon from their encampment at Santos Lugares to a spot distant from it about a league. Here they remained on Monday, the 2d, and that evening he formed his line of battle. It was drawn ap on the edge of a gentle slope, just raised above tho surrounding lev e l country. It is computed that he had from 20,000 to 25,000 men of all arms. Most of those, especially the cavalry, were new levies, having been taken from their farms only a few months before; some few of the infantry, especially the blacks, who fought well, had long been soldiers. Ho had nearly 100 pieces of artillery, but they were badly managed. His old cavalry, to the number of 13,500 men, had been stationed in detach ments along the river bank to the north of the province, and, having been taken in detail, had nearly all been cut off or dispersed by Urquiza's troops during their, march; so that only about 1,000 crossed the bridge of Micques under General Pacheco a few days before the battle. Rosas's line extended for about two miles on the edge of a gentle slope—cavalry on the winks, infantry in the centre, artillery in front and between the intervals. There is not a tree or house on the field of battle, ex cept a house of brick and mortar, with a tower, called Monte Caseros, which formed Rosas's extreme right, and which he occupied in force, and a round pigeonhouse of brick, about 70 yards from it. His arrangements were very bad (his centre and left being evidently with out support), for he had no knowledge of strategy, as he himself confessed, and he was so demented that he re fused to take the advice of any of his generals, some of whom told him that he must lose the battle. Urquiza, with a force of from 25,000 to 28,000 men, from Entre rios, Uruguay, Corrientes, Santa FiC, and Brazil, arrived from the neighbourhood of Moron on the evening of Monday, and bivouacked at a distance of about two miles from the enemy. At daylight on Tuesday morning he drew up his men in a line, opposite to Rosas's army, on a the edge of an opposite slope, at the distance of about mile. He was inferior in artillery , but much su perior in the quality and discipline o f his troo p s. Th e can nonading began at daylight , and as I said wa s heard in town. Urquiza commenced the battle by outflanking with his cavalry Itosae's left, which was completely turned and routed, and it was some of these gentlemen who came early into the town giving out that the battle was lost, while their comrades were still fighting. While this was going on Rosas's left Urquine's centre and left, composed of Brazilian and Oriental infantry, crossed the valley and took at the point of the bayonet the two houses which formed thus both infant h ry is the strong position on Rosas's r i g ht , while Urquiza's cavalry on the left complet e ly surrounded the whole of Rosas's wingsand artilleryw e re made turned. T lry rig fl h e t d, The ecavalry a stand for a short time in a new position towards their former left, but it was only for a very brief space. Surrounded on all sides, they surrendered or fled in all directions, and the rout was complete. It was difficult to gather exactly how long the battle lasted. The real fighting began probably at 6, ex., and ended near 12. Rosas was on the tower of the house for some time, and then in the field; at length, seeing all was lost, he took to flight, and, thanks to a very magnificent horse, and the dust and smoke of the battle, he succeeded in getting i n to town. After remainingfor some time in the outskirts, he came in to Mr. Gore's ok and re- , (the British Charge's) house, about four o'oo , EVENIN G, MAY 6, 1862. mained till two at night, when he accompanied Mr. Gore as his orderly, in the jacket and cap of a❑ English Ma rine, and without shoes or stockingi, sad with his daughter Ms.auelita in man's clothes, to the beach, where the boat of a French merchantman took him cif to the Loeut, - which iminediately got up ber steam and conveyed her precious burden . to the flag-ship, the C en t aur , l y i ng a b ou t th re e mien oft. Such was th e i ng l or i ous ex i t o f t h e S ou th American tyrant; a dictator whose power was more absolute than that of tho Russian Autocrat, or of any earthly ruler, Such was the issue of the battle of Monte Caseros, in which, it is said, upwards of 50,000 men were en gaged, a larger number, perhaps, than ever assem bled in America on one field since the days of the Aztec princes. The results were—the complete dis persion of Rosas's cavalry, the capture of all his in fantry and artillery, his own ruin, and the freedom of the Argentine Republic Of this large army it is not thought that more than 200 were killed and 600 wounded on both sides, Urquiza having strict orders to make prisoners, not to kill except in case of resist ance. The cavalry of the conquering army pursued the routed enemy close up to the city, but they did not enter it. The troops spent the night in Sautes Leteares (a town of soldiers' huts, built by Roses in 1836), and headquarters were establithed at Rosas's quints of Pa lermo. Thus much for the battle. Tuesday night, as I said, passed quietly in town. On Wednesday morning, at eight o'clock, a body of Urquias's cavalry came to the fort, to whom Mau zilla surrendered the city, he himself, to the intense disgust of everybody, giving the signal of exultation for the downfall of RO3aS, his brother-in-law and benefactor, by crying out, " Leng live Ur quizsl Death to the tyrant Rosasl" The cavalry then turned and went out again to head-quarters. About ten o'clock the town seemed to be in a state of great ferment, caused by a report that the soldiers were sacking it. The excitement increased every instant, the alarm-bell of the Cabildo (town-hall) rang out incessant, short peals, and people were almost . universally alarmed. It appeared that some of` the routed cavalry had remained in the outskirts of the town during the night, and at daybreak had commenced breaking into the shops in the parts re mote from the centre, and stripping them of their con tents, alleging that Manzilla had given them authority to plunder. About nine o'clock the marauders brgan to come into the centre of the town; some were really Urquizs's soldiers ; others, the great majority, were Moses's men, who had assure -d Urquiza's badge (a piece of white calico passing over the head and shoulders, worn above their red coats, the only difference between the opposing troops). The frightened people, sup posing that they were really Urquiza's men, and that he had given them license to pillage, and ft acing that if they resisted murder would be added to robbery, offered no opposition. The locks of many shops were blown off by the musket, and the contents carried off. In two of the principal streets there was scarcely a silversmith's shop, in particular, which was not ransacked. This went on for some time, and it looked as if the town was going to be sacked, when about eleven o'clock the American marines, at the door of their Consul, shot down two men who were pillaging a shop in their neighbonrheod. Thee the tide b egan t o turn. D ur i ng the prev i ous night Manzifla, having given up the command, nomi natrd a commission o f f our o f t h e more respectae l e citizens, to whom he resigned his powers, and advised i them to treat with Urquiza. They wrote out to him a statement of the condition of the place, and requested him to take measures for the preservation of tranquillity. Ho immediively rent a reply, nominating one of the commission (Dr. Lopez, President of the Cha m b er o f J ust i ce, once governor f or a short time, a man of more than 70, and universally respected), Provisional Governor, with full powers to form a provisional Government until the representatives of the province could be assembled to form a regular Government. About 10 Lopez issued a decree, requiring the militia to reassemble at their respective guardhouses and patrol the streets. Persons were also invited to apply to the pence -office for urine and assist in protecting prop rty. Another decree denounced the punishment of death to all found robbing. About 12 a division of Urquizaas men, which Lopez had written for, came into the town, and the effect of all these measures was immediately ap parent. The militia and many foreigners patrolled the streets, and every man or woman whom they found rob bing was immediately seized, bound, and conducted to the Policia, where he or she was allowed a quarter of an hour for consideration, and then shot. Any who at tempted to escape were shot down in the streets. (This lasted till the Thursday night; and it is supposed that upwards of 400 men and women thus expiated their crimes.) It was au act of fearful but necessary severity, for, had the mischief been allowed to go on un checked for another hour, there is little doubt but pil lage and murder would have been universal; the soldiers, encouraged by impunity, and maddened by drink, would have hesitated at no crime, and the whole city would have been plunged in misery; but from this sad condition God, in His mercy, preserved us. F. and I were out nearly all day, and visited several English families. The heat during these two days was most intense, the thermometer ranging higher than it had done during the summer. During the day and previous night those who thought themselves most compromised, 091)(169,11y the chief officers of Roses. took refuge in the Centaur and other English and Freueh vessels of war. On Thursday morning the town was perfectly quiet, except from the noise of incessant salutes fired by the ships of war, and returned by the fort. Many of the people went out to Palermo to Urquiza during the day, who received them very graciously. He issued a proclamation to the people on this day, con gratulating them on the downfall of their oppressor and tyrant, " the monster Roses," and announcing a complete amnesty to all, except Roses, and those Argentine troops who, having been engaged with Oribe in the siege of Monte Video, surrendered to Ur quiza in October, 1851, promising never to bear arms against him, and which promise, when they came over with him to this place, some of them broke and went over to Roses. Those he declared to be outlaws, and to be put to death wherever they were met with. Some of them, including General Santa Colonia and General Chilabert, were shot by hia orders. F. and I called on the new Governor, Lopez, at the fort on Friday, but he was of course too much en gaged to be able to see us. On Saturday F., T., H., and I rode to Palermo, and were introduced to Urquiza. He shook hands and conversed with us for a minute or two, and we then left. He is a short man, rather stout, about fifty, dressed with great care, with patent leather boots, &c.—rather more like a dandy than we expected to see; the expression of his countenance is rather deter mined than benevolent, and more animal than intellec tual. Soldiers were encamped in all directions; the grounds of the quiuta (formerly so carefully attended to that men were actually employed to cleanse every leaf of the orange trees from dust with a tooth brush) were occupied by men and horses, who trampled it down iu all parts, and I fear will inflict lasting injury upon it. We saw on the ground the bodies of two men who had been shot. During this day all sorts of stories were ad sat in town respecting discoveries which it was said had been made of Roses's atrocities; as, e. g., that a mine contain ing 700 barrels of powder had been discovered under his town house; which he supposed Urquiza would occupy, and had given direction for it to be fired. Tnese 700 dwindled down to a quantity simply sufficient for the defence of the house in case of attack. Another report was, that like the Roman Emperor of old, he had Lott a paper in his own hand writing with the names of intended victims in case of his being victorious. Among them were the names of many English and other foreigners—item, that he had promised hie soldiers, if conquerors, three days' plunder of the town. Another, that a number of human skulls labelled had been dis covered at the quints. This last account was true; for the others I can't say. These reports had the natural effect of increasing the popular irritation against Roses and the general desire that he should be conveyed away as quickly as possible. The Government had made representations to Mr. Gore, complaining that Roses was allowed to remain in sight of Buenos Ayres, and on this day (Saturday) the En glish merchants met, and appointed two of their body to communicate with the Admiral and request the im mediate deportation of Rosas, as his presence in the outer roads was exciting hopes in his adherents of a counter revolution; and it was reported that Mr. Gore, who had been off twice to see Roses, had conveyed letters to his partisans. The Admiral replied that, since Mr. Gore had sent off the L ocus t on Wednesday morning: to Monte Video to catch the packet, he had only his own vessel (the Centaur) at Buenos Ayres, the presence of which was still necssary for the protection of British interests; but that immediately another vessel arrived Roses should be sent away to England. Accordingly ou Monday morning, the 9th, the Centaur took him and his son and daughter and one or two others to Monte Video, where they put them on board her Majesty's ship Conflict, with orders to proceed to Bahia, where it was hoped they would overtake the packet; if not, they were to go straight to England. No doubt, therefore, you have heard of him before this. It is reported that Roses and his daughter had not even a change of clothes, and only a very little money, He declared that ho had not taken a farthing out of Buenos Ayres, but many maintain that he has very large sums in the English funds. Every day citizens who had been proscribed and ban ished by Rosas returned to their country. A provisional Administration of some of the beat men Wdd formed, and every day decrees annulling Rosas's infamous laws were issued, and re s to r ing the liberties of the peop l e, which for twenty years had been taken away. On Italian Sa turday, the 14th, F. and I, accompanied by an gentleman named Pellegrini, rode out to the battle field. The ground for some miles in the neighbourhood b o o f urhoo d military c f the battle field was strewn with relics dead and clothing, either stripped from by the fugitives ; wounded, or cast away bayonet, gunstocks, and barrels,ayaoo sc abbards, spears, in great numbers. and cuirasses were also lying about Or these we brought home se veral, and I have a &c., a s memorials of the greatest battle f cuirass, several bayone i t n s, America in modern times. fought About 100 dead bodies in iqan all (Bu e enos Ayieans, s 'z .. st had rmoved thei , s) for the Brazilians a nd lay in different dir ections over the fi.ld. About 50 bodies of those w ho had been killedin defending the house of Monte Caseros lay in front of it, having teen taken out. Considering the long time that had elapsed, their appearance and smell were not so bad as would be suppose. d H uma n hair and gore covere d the. steps leading to the tower of the house, and these were very offensive. Cannon-balls, bullets, and a few discharged rockets, showed where the lino bad been, but, excepting that the grass was entirely trodden down, there was little to show that so many men had there con tended. We re turned to town through the encampment of Santos Lugaree, which was now entirely deserted. tirquiza'a men had broken into every how and robbed it of everything they could make available; all the doors were thrown open, the officers' papers covered the fliers, the prison (La Crugis), the dread of the whole country, from the many deeds of atrocity committed there, was entirely open—the prison records lying about the floor, the gaoler's book, containing the date of ad mission end late of the prisoners, and among them that of the priest and his mistress, who were shot in August, 1848, and concerning which I wrote to You (which entry I saw)—the irons with which the poor prisoners were fettered for years—all lay scattered, to be taken by any one who pleased, for the whole place, was given up to destruction. Things seems to be getting into a regular channel,; all of flosas' officers, who were bad men, have been re moved. and honest men put in their place. The navy 011 t. , be sold (far the Government is dreadfully in debt in consequence of Rosas's extravagant expenditure.) The arm) is not reconstituted, and when it is will be on 0, very small scale. Urqu:za made bis entrance into the town at the head of his troops (they say 25 000 in number) on the 19'h. From twelve to five pat th e troops were pas-ing, and I was quite tired of the sight. He himself remained but a very short time (not more than an hour) in the town, and then returned to Palermo, apparently in rather a bad humour; he f a. turne , t, however, in the evening to view the firework!, go to the theatre, &c. I cannot say that the peopl e re ceived him web much enthusiasm. How long Urquiza and his troops are going to rerosh s s here no one kno 45. I believe the good folks would no: be sorry to see him depart; it is thought, however, that he will be here for six months longer. The first ste p the establishment of a regular Government will be t he assembling of the representatives of the province, v" will appoint a governor. Then it is supposed that s con ress of representatives from all the province s will be O n , , ened at some central place (not Buenos Ayres, pro bably Santa Fe), who will elect a president of the whole conted; ration; and this i s th e p os t whi c h it is thought LTrqui za 1 aiming at. His conduct in this affair, and in the libera • tion of Monte Video, has been noble and merciful; built; these respects much at variance with his Prel l a t actions, which, it i s sa id, were ver y sang u inary.
