THOMAS HOOD'S GRAVE.—The publication in Eliza's Cook's Journal of" Lines written at Kensall-green Cemetry," has induced numerous readers to express an earnest de sire to assist in raising a fund for the purpose of placing a memorial over the remains of" Poor Hood." Many a burst of merriment has echoed above " Hood's Comic Annual." from the lips of all classes. For mane a year he cheered our Christmas firesides with racy humour, that never wearied by its frivolity nor offended by its coarseness. Far and wide was he known as the Poet of Mirth: but the higher development of his genius and the noble , purpose of his muse were shown in such glorious hymns as " The Song of the Shirt" and the " Bridge of Sighs." Those who have read either of these poems will acknow ledge that such a man deserves to have a mark upon his sleeping place, so that it may be found without the help of a grave-yard servant, and all who have laughed at his inimitable wit, or sighed over his human tenderness, are now earnestly solicited 6' spare what they can in aid of a purpose which is alike praiseworthy in the Ming and due to the dead. At the request of the committee, Miss Eliza Cook has consented to be Treasurer to the fund, and Mr. John Watkins to be Honorary Secretary. Subscriptions will be received by Mr. William Strudwicke, at the Whittington Club, Arundrl-street, trand ;at the office of Eliza Cook's Journal, 3, Raquet.court, Flee S t-street ; by Miss Eliza Eliza Cook's 54, Great Ormomle-street, Bloomsbury ; and by Mr. John W 34, Parliament-street, Westminster.

If un able to pay, or not desirous of paying or omitting topay,theFo- Hey would still remain of its FULL value, 522/.23.7d.ti1l death, if 20 years after, no fur ther payment beingre quired. Ifhowever the party, from any cause, wished to cancel the Policy, he could not onlydraw out all hehas put in, viz., 2251., llut a certain bonus of 021. 2s. 9d. In the bargain, which is more than one-fourth of the whole of his payments, or he could either draw out a part, 201. or 501., diminishing the Policy only by the assured value of the sum so drawn out at the age when withdrawn. See pagess and 7 in detailed pamphlet, by F. G. P. Nelson, Esq. 2251. 522/.257d1 2871. 2s. 9d. * The rates here selected are those adopted by the English and Cambrian Office, and advertised in its distinctive features as low rates of premium, and professedly for the lower and midd:ing classes. In most offices, particularly the older ones, such as the Scottish Equitable and the Globe, these rates would be much higher. In the former of 101.75. 6d., with 10 shillings per cent. entrance fee, would be the rate to insure 500/. at 20 years of age. In the latter 8/. 13s 4d., to irsure the same sum. The higher the rate the more in favour of the DEPOSIT system. l• Money laid out at compound interest DOUBLES ITSELF every four teen years. On comparison of these two tables it will be seen that a person under the novel system of DEPOSIT assurance can secure the follow ing advantages, viz., Ist. For a less sum, paid annually, he can assure a larger sum in case of death than under the ordinary system. 2ndly. In the event of a desire to surrender his Policy he can receive in this Company, by the above example, which applies to all ages„ THREE times AS vouch as on the ordinary system. In the event of inabty or omission to pay, his policy remains still his property, of the same valve as it was, though he cease his current payments for any number of years ; whereas on the ordinary system, he gets nothing. 4thly. Should he require to increase or decrease the amount of his policy he can do so at pleasure. He can, at any time, by giving a fortnight's notice, withdraw any part from 11 up to the whole amount of his previous payments and with interest. After he has withdrawn part one year he can, by a single payment, three years, or any time afterwards. raise his policy to a greater or even its former amount ; and by this system he can at all times regulate his annual savings by his annual expenditure, with the facility in the bargain of having a fund to fly to in case of necessity, the same as in a bank, with this palpable advantage, however, that he gets inte rest for his money, and in case of death his family receive more than the amount of his savings. In ordinary Life Offices he can do no such thing, but his policy at once lapses or is cancelled the moment he ceases to pay his current premiums, and, instead of ha vin g any fund to fly to for aid, all his hard'eamed savings become fo rfeited to the society, and his misfortunes serve to benefit the pockets of his more fortunate co-assurers. Such a system is too equitable and too striking to be overlooked and DEPOSIT assurance is the only system of assurance which can be universally recognized and adopted when the principles ar e impar tially canvassed, and its palpable benefits become widely diff used. It confers greater advantages than a bank because it allows a fair rate of interest in case of withdrawal, and gives twice the amount in the hands of the Company to the representatives of the Depositor in case of death. thus combining the A DV A NTAGES OF A BANK_ WITH THE BENEFITS OF LAW INTELLIGENCE. COURT OF BANKRUPTCY—DEc. 7. (Before Mr. Commissioner Holroyd.) IN RE MACKELLAR AND HAMPSON. The bankrupts were shawl warehousemen of Gresham street. This was an adjourned examination meeting. The accounts prepared by Mr. Maynard extend from Jan. 20, 1851, to Sept. 15, 1852, and contain the fol lowing items :—Dr. Unsecured creditors, 24,996/. ; lia bilities, 28,875/. ; secured creditors, 3271.

Mr. Reed, for the assignees, said the bankrupts had only been in business twenty months, and their debts already proved were 28,000/., on which a dividend of 2s. 6d. only had been paid. An adjournment was de sirable, that the accounts might be fully examined ; and he submitted that, having regard to the amount of debts and assets, it should be at the bankrupts' expense. Mr. Defree for Mackellar, and Mr. Linklater for Hampson, submitted that, the accounts being volumi nous, the expense of an adjournment should not be im posed upon the bankrupts. His Honour ordered an adjournment of six weeks, the bankrupts to pay the costs thereof. AN ASSURANCE Coil ANY.

The essential object of this treatise I. to point out the fearful consequences resulting from irregulari fi ..ea and excesses. which have produced more misery in Youth, degradation in Man hood, and premature decay at all stages of life, than, perhaps, any other class of disease known to mod ern pathologists. The treatment adopted is founded on experience gained d in the most celebrated schools of medicine both in this country an in continental Europe. The results of the knowledge thus acquired are here condensed under the personal supervision of Dr. La'Mert: , himself one of the few :egally qualified physicians who have devoted their whole and un divided studies to this important branch of medical science. In short, every peculiarity relating to the treatment of the diseases incidental to the generative system, and the means of immediate relief and ultimate cure are described in detail. The professional reputation of Dr. La'Mert, who has taken the most distinguished medical and academic honours at home and abroad, is in itself a sufficient guarantee that those who may place eet with that deli themselves under his care will, in every instance, m cate consideration and Inviolable secrecy which are so requisite in the treatment of these cases.

NORTHERN CIRCITIT.—LIVERPOOL, DEC. 7. Yesterday Mr. Justice Creswell and Mr. Justice Crompton arrived in this city, and opened the commis sion for the winter assize, and this morning proceeded to the courts at eleven o'clock. The calendar contains the names of 112 prisoners, of whom 2 are charged with intent to murder, 9 with manslaughter, 8 with rape, 14 assault and robbery, 6 with cut _ ting and wontYri-iTV alAbir'S - wiffrinainy, with perjury, 8 with forgery; 5 with stealing from the dwelling-house, 2 with coining, 1 with embezzlement, the rest with minor offences. Mr. Justice Cresswell charged the jury in the Crown Court. Mr. Justice Crompton sat in the Nisi Prius Court. CROWN COURT. (Before Mr. Justice Cresswell.) James Connor, 31, and Margaret O'Brien, 38, were indicted for having at Manchester, on the 15th of Sep tember last, killed and slain one Edward O'Brien. Mr. Wheeler prosecuted ; Mr. Sowler defended the prisoner O'Brien ; the other prisoner was undefended. It appeared that the female prisoner was the wife of the deceased, who about half past eight on the morning of the 15th September came into a beer-house kept by a man named Orm, in Jersey-street, Manchester. He ap peared to be in low spirits, and said that his wife had been out all night with the male prisoner, and that he should not go to his work. He called fora pint of beer, and shortly after the two prisoners came in, and the female prisoner seeing her husband, said to Connor, "Go a-head ;" take his life, now's the time of day." She then took the male prisoner's cup, and said, " We'll drink to those we love best." The deceased then offered his wife to drink out of his cup, but she would not, and dashed it to the ground. The male prisoner then asked the deceased if he wanted to fight ? to which he replied, that he did not. The prisoners then left the house, fol lowed by the deceased, who wanted to get his wife to go home, which she refused to do. He then struck his wife upon the neck, upon which the male prisoner struck the deceased, who then struck again, and in the fight they both Sell to the ground, the deceased being uppermost ; they then struggled on the ground, when the male prisoner struck deceased on the face, the wife assisting in the fight, by pulling her husband's hair, and saying to him, " This is the last time you shall beat me for men." Another struggle then took place, when the female was not present, and during this struggle the deceased fell to the ground, his head falling heavily against the kerb stone. He became insensible, but recovered sufficiently to walk home. In the evening he became worse, and was taken to the infirmary, where he died at ten o'clock at night. On a post mortem examination being made, it was found that there was a large fracture of the skull about two inches above the right ear, occasioned by a blow, which the medical testimony said would most likely have been occasioned by a fall on a kerb-stone, 'and which had caused death. Upon being taken into custody, the male prisoner said he was sorry for it. The female prisoner said that she could not help it, and that she should only get six months for it. Mr. Sowler addressed the jury for the female pri soner, and contended that as the evidence showed that the fatal blow took place by the fall on the kerb, when the female prisoner was not in the street, however cul pable she might otherwise be, they could not convict her of the present charge. The male prisoner said that he had only struck the deccatsed in oolf-dofenee ; that they had been out all night drinking together ; that they had all previously been good friends ; that there was nothing wrong between him and the woman ; and that the fall which caused death took place in the struggle, and was unavoidable. His lordship having summed up, the jury returned a verdict of guilty against Connor, acquitting the female prisoner. His lordship said that, taking all the circumstances of the case into consideration, the absence of intention to do serious injury, and the fact of the prisoner having been in prisen since the 15th of September, he should only sentence him to imprisonment for three calendar months. Mr. Justice Crompton was engaged in disposing of cases of no interest. THE LATE RENCONTRE BETWEEN TWO MEM BEES OF PARLIAMENT. TO MR EDITOR OF THE SUN. SIR, —Du ring the last week your columns contained the account of a scene, happily of rare occurrence, in which two members of the House of Commons were the chief actors, calculated to bring discredit upon them as gen tlemen and legislators. I had the misfortune to be one of the gentlemen in question, and conceiving myself to have been treated with great brutality, I appealed to a police oourt for re dress, as being the only fit place for such an inquiry. At that investigation I went unaccompanied by counsel, prepared simply to give a narration of the facts as they occurred. The defendant came, aided by eminent professional talent, and accompanied by witnesses, whose evidence was calculated to throw a doubt upon my representations ; and a letter which appeared the following day in the Times from one of the witnesses imputed to me the base and cowardly conduct of first striWkig a gentleman, and then running away with considerable speed. I was taunted both in the court and elsewhere with not having my chief witness, Mr. Beaumont Coles, to state what occurred, and there can be no doubt that the absence of that gentleman did temporarily prejudice my position. Confiding in the justice and impartiality of the British press and the British public, I submitted for a time to the impressions at first created, with a full knowledge and conviction that when the real facts came to be known, not only would my character be cleared from the charge of striking a blow, but also from the meanness of running away. I beg leave to submit to you, inclosed, copies of two letters received from Mr. Beaumont Coles—the first ac counting for his absence from the police-court ; the second giving his version of the unfortunate occurrence, which will, I hope, entirely exonerate me from the two charges as affecting me, and will corroborate to the minutest point the case at stated by myself at the police-court. I believe my general character will be the best reply to the imputations in question. I can honestly say that I am the last man in the world who could be charged with committing an assault, and I fearlessly assert that if I had placed myself in such a position, I should never be guilty of running away to avoid the consequences. I abstain from commenting upon the letter of the wit ness who appeared desirous of adding even more to the supposed triumph he and his friends obtained at the police-court, leaving that composition to that calm and complete contradiction given to it by the evidence con tained in Mr. Beaumont Coles second letter. I must apologise to you for trespassing upon your columns with this correspondence, but I feel assured that your valu able paper will not be closed against an explanation so vital to my position as a gentleman and a man of honour. —Your very obedient servant, B. OLIVEIRA. London, 8, Upper Hyde-park-street, Dec, 6th, 1852 No. 1. Middleton Whitchurch, Hants, Dec. 3, 1852. My dear Sir, —I perceive in yesterday's Times that the rencontre with Mr. Butler Johnstone has been taken before the police magistrates at Bow-street. The paper reaches me on the day after publication, so that I only became acquainted with what has passed this morning. I collect fron z the recital of what has passed that you had written to me i.o request m y attendance. I intended to have returned to tc ‘wn the early part of this week, and, therefore, did not d es i i amy letters to be forwarded. I have, however, been unexpectedly detained in the country. I should have made a poi at of attending at the hearing of the case had I been swan j of it. Very truly yours, (Signed) H. B.

I beg to say I considered you did not use your stick with viol ence, but the impression on my mind at the time was that it was a joke, and that the gentleman on whom it Wal I used was a friend of yours. I beg also to say you did not , run away, but walked up quietly to join me where I wa s standing on the pavement, some yards in advance. I cas i also state, that most unquestionably the cab was first 'am iled by you. hope this unpleasant affair will b e arranged ; if not, I tarLdl be prepared to give my evidence of what took place, and remain, Yours truly, (Signed) 11.

Mr. G. H. WHALLEY, the new member for Peter borough, took the oaths and his seat. AMERICAN SCREW STEAM-SHIP COMPANY. Mr. BROWN moved for copies of all applications made by the London, Liverpool, and North American Screw Steam-ship Company to the Board of Trade for a charter ; and of all correspondence between the said company and the Board of Trade on the subject thereof; and of all letters, memorials, and other communications received by the Board of Trade from other persons, com panies, and associations relative to such application. He complained of the charter which the Board of Trade had granted to this company, and declared that it was viewed by alarm by that portion of the public who traded with America. No company of this nature ought to be vested with exclusive privileges of any sort ; unrestricted com petition should be the ruling principle in all these mat ters, and he hoped, in justice to the shipping interest generally, the Government would be induced to annul this objectionable charter. Mr. CLAY seconded the motion. Mr. HENLEY found fault with the manner in which the motion had been brought forward. The question was, in point of fact, sub judicie, and the fair mode of dealing with the matter would have been, either to wait until the question had been decided, or to move at once that the charter should be rescinded, when the whole merits of the case could be fully considered. The house should understand that this was a case of entirely an exceptional nature, and the broad rule of general competition did not apply to it, inasmuch as the company proposed to sup ply this country with steam communication to Canada. He must therefore resist the motion. Mr. J. CLAY regretted that the right hon. gentle man had not, acceded to the reves,t,fer_papers, for it was very dratribte thaftriirliOue Ahoulaput in pos session of the whole case ; and obviously the right hon. gentleman's advice, that the hon. member for South Lancashire should wait, was not wise, seeing that if they waited until the right hon. gentleman had come to a de cision, they would be too late to effect the object they had in view, which was, that this charter should not be conceded at all. The hon. gentleman (Mr. J. Clay) then entered into the general familiar argument against the proposed charter ; and concluded by saying that the difficulty which had now arisen convinced him that the power of granting these charters ought to revert to Par liament itself ; and that, if it became a custom to grant such special privileges, then the whole commercial law of the country ought to be changed, and we would have to come altogether to the French loi en commandite. Mr. R. LOWE pointed out the inconvenience of the course which the House of Commons was being asked to take in debating on its merits a question which, with all similar questions, was referred by Act of Parliament to the decision, which decision had in this case not yet been given, of a specific and responsible department of the Go vernment. On the merits of the question he would not say anything ; and he did not doubt that a proper conclu sion would be come to by the right hon. gentleman the President of the Board, with whom the adjudication rested. But he was indisposed to sit in silence while he heard hon. gentlemen who were directly or indirectly in terested in existing steam-ship enterprises asking, in the name of free trade, the house to take steps to eliminate from the field of commerce a new and powerful compe titor. If there was any meaning in the petition which the hon. member for South Lancashire urged on the house, it was that a charter should not be granted to a company which proposed to compete for portion of the North American trade, and which, as the effect of the competi tion, would reduce freight and passage to the consumer. (Hear, hear.) And it was rather too much, when hon. gentlemen came down to anticipate the duties assigned to a Government department, that they should seek to cover their movement under the shield of " unrestricted competition." But the object and the effect were exactly the reverse. The law of unlimited liability was expressly designed to restrain competition ; and but for such a law there would be very much more competition of capital than there was at present ; and, in consequence, the con sumer would be greatly benefitted, and our general so cial condition would be much improved. The law of England at present was, that any person who entered into the operations of any branch of trade, should so enter under the heaviest penalty which he could incur— namely, if he should not succeed, of losing his last shilling and his last acre. Was this a law to encourage the competition of capital ? In fact, it was a law which did all it could, with the aid of a penalty of prceinunire, to deter men from embarking their capital in trade. The House of Commons had been entreated recently to bring its financial into unison with its commercial policy : and he thought that when they entered on that task they should at the same time commence to put their commer cial in conformity with the principle of " unrestricted competition." The conditional power given to the Board of Trade to grant charters restricting liability, was in reality a provision to remedy the injustice of the laws of unlimited liability ; and there was no doubt that the re sults of the action of the Board of Trade in this respect had been most beneficial. The monuments of the law of unlimited liability were only to be found in the Bank ruptcy Court. (Hear.) The monuments of the charters conceding limited liability were to be found in the rail ways which covered the land, and the steamers which crowded every sea. The only argument which had been urged by the hon. member for South Lancashire was that if this new company was established unde r a Board of Trade charter there would be insufficient security for cre ditors. But in an age of unrestricted competition was it not possible that creditors, or the public, could be left to protect themselves ? (Hear.) lion. gentlemen were talking as if the limited liability had never been tried as a principle of commerce. But they forgot the experi ences of France, and they forgot what were the results of the experiment in Massachusetts and in other of the advanced states of America. (Hear, hear.) For him self he (Mr. Lowe) hoped that the day was not far dis tant when the House of Commons would relieve the Board of Trade from the invidious and annoying duty imposed on it—not, however, to take back the power once given to that department—but by so changing the law as to leave it to every set of persons in this country wishing to invest their capital for a common enterprise to do so without having occasion to go to a Government department at all, but simply by making known to the public, as in the United States, by advertisement, what their objects are, and what the capital is they propose to put into the concern. (Hear.) Mr. E. B. ROCHE hoped that in the decision on this question the interests of Ireland would not be forgotten. Mr. BROTHERTON supported the proposition of his hon. friend the member for South Lancashire. Lord GODERICH could not understand upon what ground the hon. member for Kidderminster (Mr. Lowe; had charged upon the movers in this matter a desire to "eliminate from the field of commerce a new and power ful competitor in the name of free trade." He (Lord Goderich) could not perceive any such object. (Hear, hear.) He believed that the simple object was that free trade should be observed between competitors, or, in other words, Government should not give one party an exclusive advantage over other parties in the same enter prise. (Hear, hear.) Mr. J. MACGREGOR did not at all regret the course ho had taken in bringing the memorial -of this new com pany before the Boar d of Trade. He understood t hat there were no British ships at present employed in that trades and he conceived that he had been promoting a national object in aiding the efforts of a company which would sail British ships, made of British iron, manned by British seamen, bet ween British colonies and British ports. (Hear, hear.) He was altogether unconnected with the company seeking a charter ; but he regarded it as entitled to a charter ; and he hoped that the right hon. gentleman (Mr. Henley) would give the matter the fairest consideration. Mr. HUME was exceedingly gratified with the able manner in which the noble lord (Lord Goderich) had treated this s ubject. The noble lord had, he thought, put the case very properly and very logically • and he entirely agreed with all his observations. But under the circumstances, seeing that the discussion had ena bled hon. gentlemen to put the whole argument before the right hon. gentleman, he (Mr. Hume) would advise his hon. friend to withdraw the motion. (Hear, hear.) Sir F. BARING did not desire to offer any opinion whatever on the merits of this case, and he only rose to state that he did not see in the fact t hat the question was still sub judice before the right hon. gentleman, any reason why the papers should not be produced. It was hardly the practice to refuse papers on that g round: and he did not see that there could b e any either beforepublicthoer official inconvenience in laying a ll the papers house. Mr. HENLEY explained that whatstihoen,mweaenret stn 1 that papers, on both sides of the q coming in aily, and that in that sta u . t n e e o t f be th c i a n s g e s w t h he ic r b e would be an obvious incompleteness the house would be put in possession of.( Mr. C. TURNER was strongly opposedHtoearthehecaron.)- cession of the charter sought for. He believed the law of unlimited liability was the only safe law for a com mercial country Mr. R. M. FOX remarked that the opposition to the grantingw ioefgthe charter did not come from private par tiesto carry on private enter p rise, but from eom h companies who had subsidies from Government ; one of hi— Collins' line--had 140,0 00 /. a year for carrying the mails ; and from Collins's company, which was also strongly aided by the public money of another country. If this charter were granted, there would be a direct communication between Ireland and Canada, which would be a great saving of expense to Irish emigrants, as they would not then be under the necessity of going to Liverpool to embark. He must say that the charac ter of the men who were associated for the purpose of obtaining this charter, ought to have saved them from the imputation of getting up a scheme for the purpose of trafficing in the shares. It was a bond fide transac tion, and it was proposed to carry out the project with out a shilling of aid from this countrY . Mr. V. SCULLY said it might be a reason for not granting a charter in this case if there were no peculiar acilities granted to other companies, but they knew very now. Mr. HUDSON said the act of Parliament left, it to the Board of Trade whether a charter should be granted or not, and his constituents were quite satisfied with the sound judgment of the President of the Board of Trade. In many of the principles laid down he perfectly con curred, but there were cases where it was most desirable that limited responsibility should be given, but the Board of Trade might foster projects which did not come within the scope of private enterprise. He thought that private enterprise was much more likely to be success ful than enterprises undertaken by companies managed by boards of directors. He hoped the hon. gentleman would not persevere in the motion he had made. Mr. A. HASTIE thought, if it were left to private enterprise, emigrants would be quite as well accommo dated as they would be if a charter were granted. His co nstituents were against the granting of this charter. At the same time, lie thought it better that the hon. gentleman should withdraw the motion. Mr. W. BROWN said, what they wanted was " a clear stage and no favour " for any company whatever. He should be extremely sorry to ask for papers, the produc tion of which would embarrass the right hon. gentleman. If there was any negotiation going on with any foreign state, there might be a difficulty, but there was no diffi culty in the present case ; but, as the right hon. gentle man was of a different opinion, he would withdraw the motion, and he trusted, and was confident, that he would do justice to all parties. Mr. MACGREGOR was confident that the naviga tion proposed would be as effectually carried out from Glasgow and Liverpool as if a charter were granted. The motion was then by leave withdrawn. COUNTY FINANCIAL BOARDS. Mr. M. GIBSON obtained leave to bring in a bill to establish county financial boards for the assessing of county rates, and for the administration of county ex penditure in England and Wales. RETURNS ORDERED. On the motion of Mr. KINNAIRD, copies of any papers or correspondence respecting the expulsion of Messrs. Wingate and Smith from the Austrian dom in i ons, in continuatiot of papers presented in the last session of the last Parliament. On the motion of Mr. CAULFIELD, copy of the re port to the Admiralty, on the removal of the bar in Car lingford Bay, with a view to its being available as a har bour of refuge. SUPPLY.—NATIONAL DEFENCES. On bringing up the report of the committee of supply, GiPECHELL said the lion. gentleman proposed , • t 4 to ..raiatfk2;ooo mcn,year, and then the, re mainder • '..31 were be raised in Aprilneat, if irey couldi , Vt — them. He suggested that if they could not raise liiencient men they should supply the remainder by boys. Mr. STAFFORD said this matter had been under the consideration of the Admiralty, and it was their wish to get as many boys as they could. On the vote of 14,0001. for iron ordnance and pro jectiles, Sir G. PECHELL said there was some difference of opinion as to the number of guns and iron ordnance now lying at Portsmouth, Woolwich, and Devonport, and our various colonies. Now, in the report of the Ordnance Committee of 1849, he found that at that time there were at Woolwich no less than 11,679 serviceable guns—great big guns, from a 13-inch mortar to a 9 pounder. At Portsmouth there were 1,456 guns serviceable ; at De vonport, 927 serviceable ; at Chatham, 333 repairable ; at Plymouth, about the same number, and 549 obsolete guns ; and 479 obsolete guns at Devonport. Now, when he looked at Gibraltar, which was reckoned to be our strongest fortress, he found that there were only 600 guns there, and the cost of sending out a great many more guns to complete the armament, was only 8,0151. They were now called upon to vote 14,0001. Was this for a second Gibraltar ? What could be their intention in asking for so large a sum when in all parts of England there were no less than 14,961 serviceable guns ; and, taking the repairable and unserviceable, no less than 23,963. The report was then agreei to. TENANT'S COMPENSATION (IRELAND) BILL. On the order of the day for the second reading of this bill, Mr. Serjeant SHEE said the right hon. gentleman the Attorney-General for Ireland, in the exposition which he gave them some evenings ago of the new bill of landlord and tenant, adverted in terms of respectful notice to an hon. friend of his, for many years a member of that house, to whose exertions the improvement by legislative measures of the condition of the agricultural classes in Ireland, the right hon. gentleman, as he under stood him, attributed, as a primary cause, much of the difficulty that he anticipated in carrying his supposed measure for the same object. He had no wish to de preciate the learning and the industry of the right hon. gentleman, but when he reminded the house that in the years 1835, 1836, 1843, 1845, 1847, 1848, 1849, 1850, and 1852, bills were brought into that house by the late member for Rochdale (Mr. Sharman Crawford), in which all the principles of tenants property in their own improvements, and of retrospective compensation for them, now nominally and little more than nominally admitted by the right hon. gentleman, were fully recognised, he thought the house would agree with him that whenever Lt passed a good law of landlord and tenant in Ireland, the materials of that bill—whosesoever name might be on the back of that bill—would be furnished by Mr. Craw ford. That gentleman was a large landed proprietor, and he put forward a plan for the improvement of the condition of his countrymen, the first clause of which - contained a recognition that farm buildings and per manent improvements belonged to the tenant, and he had carried that principle out on his own estate ; he as serted that the tenants had a right to the product of their own industry ; and that from the time he had car ried out that principle on his own estate, he had not only greatly promoted the happiness and prosperity of those whom Providence had made dependent upon him, but had considerably advanced his own interests. (Hear, hear.) He read Mr. Crawford's bill, and the other bills that were from time to time brought into that and the other House of Parliament, and from his own experience and observation, which had not been inconsiderable in England, Scotland, and Ire land, and from the reports of Parliamentary com mittees and the writings of economists, he had come to a conclusion on the subject—he came at last to the con clusion that unless the legislature of this country was prepared to break up the settlement of landed estates for the purpose of family provision, which was thought essential for the maintenance of the aristocratic element, and distributed the land on the death of the proprietor, they would never arrive at a sound and proper state of things. On further inquiry, he found that Mr. Craw ford's bill contained no provisions that had not been sanctioned by the accumulated wisdom of ages, or that were not comprised in the laws of all those states which had retained the jurisprudence of the empire. In every line of the bill there was a tenacious anxiety to guard the slightest encroachment on the real and just rights of property ; and he could not help admiring his (Mr. Crawford's) worthy resolution not to surrender one jot of his honest conviction for a whiff of that which had led even honest men astray—the gale of popu larity—than which nothing was more worthless when it was undeserved. (Hear, hear.) During the last ses sion a vast number of petitions had been presented in favour of the bill ; and not one against it; and its prin ciplesb had been likewise affirmed at the late election by great majorities in most of the Irish counties.been called (II upon at He (the learned serjeant) had b y n dme by r. er p a o w so . m at em a buiereseotifugthiasthoDuuseb,liauLlwphrieuslidedw-"ovearttbne at honourable ford, btouttatkhee ctheamrgpeuroafrytheabbeielluedeurienfg t w h hat was hoped was sntleman from the house. Agitation out of doors gwhich had not for its object success, as the worthy result of argument and discussion, was not only mis chievous but criminal ; but if he (Serjeant Shoe) failed on this occasion, it would not be for want of a true and loyal conviction that the principles he had undertaken to support were in themselves just and wise, conserva tive to the real rights of property, and conducive to the prosperity of Ireland, to the peace, the strength, and the union of that great empire of which it formed a part. (Cheers.) As many years as he could re member, the misery of the Irish people had occupied a large portion of the attention of that house. No one could doubt that the English and Scotch members longed to be comforted by an assurance of the happiness of their fellow Irish subjects ; but how was it that their benevolence had failed so signally in its results?

Ev er y where the grateful earth supplied to the labour of the husbandman the means of enjoyment and comfort e xcept, alas !in Ireland. (Cheers.) In three pro vinces of that unhappy country, almost within sight of these shores, and having ready access to the English markets, there were struggling, in frightful contrast, luxury and plenty with hunger, nakedness, and want. There were property without security, industry without encourage ment, and commerce without life —a restless longing for , ag h rai rs a . n ) ne w things at home and new fortu nes b eyon d th e seas — agrarian d i s s u c o r n el t ; n i t t , w a n a d s v ( w a i o n rs to t of loo all k ) agrarian iluseti.ce (Cheers,) for the cure of such evils in the consolidation of statutes and illusory guarantees. (Cheers.) Sometimes they were told that these evils arose from some inherent taint —some moral scrofula, with which all the Celtic race except the Great Duke was affected and which unfitted them for toil and profitable industry. (Hear, hear.) But a large portion of the French and Scotch peasants were Celts. (Cheers.) A large portion of the Celtic element, as the hon. member (Mr. Drummond) would tell them, if he spoke on this subject, was contained in that wonderful amalgam an Englishman ; andwho would say that the English and the American nations did not stand inthe very foremost ranks o f human races? (Cheers.) .Some times, again, they were to ld that it was their religion. (Hear, hear.) But the Roman Catholic religion was the religion of Spain and Portugal in their adays, lmiest w hen they were mas ters of the Indies. (Cheers.) And it was now the religion of France and Belgium, of the Rhenish PrOVIACeEi, of Prussia, and of Lombardy— countries w hich, asthe honourable member (Mr. Drum mond) had said last night, far surpassed us in everything that was tasteful and elegant. (Cheers.) He (Serjeant Shee) had not been able to understand from the right honourable gentleman (Mr. Napier) what he considered to be the causes of the unhappiness of Ireland. It seemed to him that the right honourable gentleman had been flirting with Mrs. Fry ; for he said that the secret of London. 4 1 1 : 4 14ER 4 k1 113 t —oonen- EX PRISONS.
