POST.—The Government have so frequently changed their ground, that even now, although the bill is actually printed, we should not be surprised at hearing, on the motion for the second reading, that its most distinctive clauses will be abandoned in committee. The Ministry were entitled to have their measure brought in and read, but it would certainly have proved a saving of m•ucli valuable time if it had received last night the quietus which awaits it at its next stag.% ADVERTISER.—The bill is based on household suffrage. It is a measure for enfranchising all who are rated for houses, no matter how small the rent. The country, therefore, must insist on the bill being made the law of the land. Modifications may be made, as we have already remarked, in its secondary provisions, but . we must have household suffrage. No Government, whether Whig or Tory, ever before proposed a bill based on household suffrage, and no Government, whether Whig or Tory, may bring forward in our day another measure, if this be lost, so liberal as the present. The nation must, there fore, if they have any regard for the electoral rights of the myriads now excluded from the franchise, rally round the Government of Lord Derby. THE WESTMINSTER GAZETTE ON " IRELAND'S DIFFICULTY."—The regeneration of Ireland, po litical and social, is a task worthy of the highest ambition of a great statesman, as well as a para mount duty. None are fit to govern in England who are incapable of honestly recognizing the causes of Ireland's discontent, and of applying remedies to the, ills of that unfortunate country. The first necessity is to uphold the law, to protect society, to punish criminals ; but this is an easy task compared with the duty of reconciling the Irish people to English rule. Men do not live by bread alone ; and even were the economic laws of Ireland regulated more in accordance with the country's needs, the relations between land lord and tenant put on a better footing, still the great evil of Ireland would remain in the ali enation of classes produced by the unhappy reli gious divisions. Ireland's greatest difficulty after all is a social difficulty. The land, the rank, the wealth, are on one side—that of Protestant ascendancy—and on the other are the masses of the nation belonging to a Church which, for three hundred years, had been persecuted in almost every conceivable fashion of cruelty. Unfortun ately, in the heart of a sensitive people, Protes tant and Orange ascendancy is inseparably asso ciated with English rule. If we wish to win the Irish people over from a widespread disaffec tion to the side of loyalty, we must remove from ,their memory, and even from their imagina tion, all traces of this hateful association. We must never forget that We are in a great degree responsible for all the misery and mischief en tailed upon Ireland by this latest and worst form which Irish discontent has taken. For Feni anism is essentially irreligious in,its principles and anti-social in its aims ; for this reason is it anathe matized from the pulpit and excommunicated like Freemasonry. " The Irish insurrection," says the Debats, in a remarkable article on Fenian ism, "is essentially American. The money, the arms, the leaders come from America; it is a return of the emigrants for offensive purposes. This transplantation has completely changed the character of the Irish insurrection. We are accus tomed to see in history the antagonism of Catholic Ireland and Protestant England. Now, the reli gious question counts for nothing. Were O'Con nell resuscitated he would be hooted. The Irish revolutionists are not only republicans but ration alists ; they will submit to the domination of the Catholic clergy no more than to that of the Protes tant clergy. They have inscribed on their banner the emancipation of thought, the secularization of instruction, the separation of Church and State." Were such un-Catholic principles, instead of being confined to a small but turbulentminority, really to take root in Ireland, it would, indeed, be a calamity for both England and Ireland. Eng land has missed many a favourable opportunity of recasting her whole policy towards Catholicism in Ireland ; but if it be idle to regret spilt water, it is worse than idle now to look back to past mis takes ; the future alone is in our hands. The Irish people must be delivered from the guidance of its Irish-American leaders, and from those godless principles which are alien to the Catholic soil of Ireland. But how is the deliverance to be effected ? First, by the sword of England, by the vindication of the law ; and, secondly, by taking the Catholic Church into her friendly counsels, and governing Ireland by the means of her religion instead of, as heretofore, more or less by the instru mentality of an unjust and of a hated Orange as cendancy. The plan is simple, but it is worth try ing, because it has never yet been attempted. In the days of persecution Ireland was simply goaded into disaffection ; when persecution ceased, she was irritated and wounded in her keenest sensibilities by an arrogant and domineering Orangism ; and, lastly, when England tried to benefit and con ciliate Ireland, for instance, by extending to her the advantages both of popular and of univer rsity education, the English Government went the wrong way to work, and by introducing, in obedience to a spirit of false Liberalism, an un-Catholic system of education into a Catholic country drew down upon themselves the con demnation of the Catholic episcopate, and drove the most steadfast Catholics into a persistent opposition. Now is the time to repent of such folly. The Catholic Church has done signal service to the cause of order in ••Ireland, and by opposing and preventing 'the spread of the revolutionary spirit she has saved the country from a merciless war of classes and of races, which would have been quenched only in blood. Let England now generously . and ungrudgingly do her part, and, after putting down an insurrec tion as foolish as it is wicked, set to work to govern Ireland as she ought to be governed, as a Catholic country, and on principles which will meet with the support and sympathy of the Ca tholic Church. Such a system of consideration and of fair dealing, which is in general so consonant to the temper of the English people, cannot fail in time to heal the wounds of Ireland which have been too long kept open by an unjust and mis taken policy of Orange ascendancy.

The object of the Company is to acquire three valuable mining properties in Carmarthenshire ; that is to say, New Nantymwyn, Gilfach, and Glan-Towy. New Nantymwyn is a continuation westward of the celebrated Nantymwyn Mines. These Mines have been worked to immense profit for centuries, and appear to be perfectly inexhaustible. Some idea may be formed of the great value of these Lodes from the fact that they occupy a channel of 180 feet in width, consisting of six divisions or lodes, and that a sink on one of them is now yielding eighteen tons of rich quality ore, worth upwards of £2OO per fathom for Lead. 2dly. The Gilfach property consists of a Lead Mine, worked to some extent and furnished with water machi nery, in which a discovery of Lead Ore has been made by an Adit. It is proposed by the Company to extend the shaft downwards on this course of ore, as well as to ex plore another discovery of ore in the sett on the Lady Eliza No. 2 Lode,where there is a good back of ore ground cropping up to and extending a considerable length along the surface. _ _ _ _ 311 y. Glan-Towy is an old Lead Mine. Shafts, which have yielded Lead Ore iu some quantity, exist on the top of the hill, and the present Company propose to drive an Adit to prove the value of the Lode under the old sinks. Plans taken from the Ordnance Survey : showing the ex act position of the Lodes, tog-ether with ground plans of the estate sections of the Mines, and reports by skilful mining engineers, are appended, and will be forwarded on application to the Secretary. Specimens of the ore may be seen at the Company's Offices. Taking into consideration the position of the Mines, the highly favourable prospects, and the return of ore being immediately available, the Directors feel confident that, with the outlay proposed, profits equal to the adjoining mines will be participated in by the Shareholders. Applications for Shares, to be accompanied with the deposit of ss. per Share, may be made to the Secretary, at the Offices of the Company, or the Bankers. FORM OF APPLICATION FOR SHARES.

SPIRIT OF THE PUBLIC JOURNALS. TIMES.—We are reluctant to give up all hope of settling the question of Parliamentary Reform this Session, but we are constrained to warn the Govern ment that this hope and their own existence depend upon their readiness to modify the bill the Chan cellor of the Exchequer last night unfolded to the House of Commons. As it was explained by him it cannot be accepted. With a great show of libe rality it is not liberal ; making a profession of adopting a resting-plaee which shall be Conserva tive, it introduces a provision which would make the electoral system of the country thoroughly un stable ; meddling with the redistribution of seats, things and settle none. All r in condemning, if not i s t e c w t i o o u n l s d of u n t s h e e t c i us a l t e the whole scheme, parts which are declared to be essential to it ; nor do we see any hope of escape from a peremptory rejection of the bill, except a resolute endeavour on the part of the Ministry to retrace their steps, and, happily, their previous con duct gives us no reason to despair that they will make any amount of concession to the clearly ex pressed opinion of the House. DAILY NEWS.—A serious difficulty is raised by the Reform Bill which the Chancellor of the Exche quer introduced yesterday evening. Is it a piece of honest blundering ; or of skilful trickery? It is not calculated to answer the purposes which its framers profess to contemplate. It is admirably suited to accomplish others which they do not avow. Not a word was said in its favour. It is clear that it must be withdrawn, if the measure is to be pro ceeded with. This done, it will be for the Govern ment and the House to consider whether, by the substitution of a lodger franchise for the more ob jectionable of the secondary qualifications, and by sonic provision for enfranchisement of compound householders as such, a reasonably satisfactory set tlement might not be arrived at. HERALD. —lf the Liberals will blindly follow Mr. Gladstone's lead nothing can be done now •, and if they get into power they will find that nothing can be done next year. The self-denial required of them is not great. The inevitable consequence of the passage of a measure like the Government bill will be to preserve them their present majority, if not to increase it. They must now see plainly enough the Government does not bring forward this bill from any interested motive. Lord Derby and his colleagues have felt it their duty to settle this question if possible, although the settlement will probably have for its consequence their own life long banishment from power. Are the Liberal leaden BO impatient for office that they will not even Miscellaneous American News. The telegraph news from Mexico is more than ever contradictory. From San Francisco it was reported that the Liberals had occupied the city of Mexico, although in the battle fought at San Luis de Potosi, on the 4th February, they were said to have been utterly routed, with the loss of all their artillery. The rumour of the occupation of the capital by the Liberals is now contradicted by the latest intelligence received in New York up to the 13th inst. Escobedo is said to have shot 190 foreign Imperial prisoners, and ordered all foreign volun teers captured from Miramon to be shot for their depredations at Zacatecas. A force of 800 Impe rialists, on their way to reinforce the capital, were routed, and 500 captured. Sixteen thousand French troops embarked for France, from Vera Cruz, on March 2. _ Professor Redwood proposes, by the following simple method, to overcome the difficulties which have hitherto existed in preserving meat in a fresh state. The meat is simply placed in a bath of melted paraffin at a temperature of 240 deg. Fah renheit; the juices are hereby boiled, so that the moisture is driven off in amount in direct ratio to the length of the time of immersion. The meat is removed and remains covered over with a layer of solid paraffin. Now the action of the latter is en tirely mechanical ; paraffin when pure is like white wax, has no smell or taste, and, what is of prime importance, it is cheap, harmless, used with the greatest facility for the purpose, and the quantity necessary to secure the object in view is very small. Chops and steaks preserved by this method are con sidered to possess all the qualities of fresh meat, and are cooked in the ordinary way. By this means the overabundance of meat in far-off countries can be utilised, and no crew and no army need be fed on salt provisions. The simplicity of the process is its greatest recommendation. Seeing that so much disease is ascribed to the want of fresh meat, Pro fessor Redwood's process ought to supply a most important deficiency in the economy of diet. The Hamburgh and American Company's steamer Teutonia arrived at New York on the 7th instant. The North German steamship America arrived on the 10th, and the Inman steamer, City of Boston, on the 11th.

The Ways and Means Committee of the House on the Tariff Bill have extensively amended the Senate " amendments," bringing the rates back in many instane s to the figures fixed by the original House bill. The committee reduce the duty on salt from 24 and 30 cents, as fixed by the Senate, to 16 and 22 cents a bushel ; ani on linseed to 20 cents a bushel, and advance the duty on steel 1i cents over the Senate rates, with corresponding advances on many articles of hardware. Wool and woollens are advanced to correspond to the House bill. The prohibition of the importation of fire crackers is stricken out, as is also the section relating to the drawbacks on shipbuilding, and agri cultural and other implements. The clause with regard to damaged goods and under valuation is also stricken out. The ninth section adding freight and commissions to invoice values is repealed. The duty is advanced on sal soda, caustic, and carbonate of soda, while those on speller and silk goods are greatly beyond the Senate rates. The rates of duties are mainly retained on iron, but advanced on some articles and reduced on others. The Senate proposes to levy a duty of 8, 11, and 12 cents on scrap iron. The committee recommend 5 and 10 cents. Cotton rates are somewhat advanced over those of the Senate. Ivory is stricken out of the free list, and the pri vilege that the Pacific Railroad Company may use foreign iron, instead of American, as now pro vided by law, is denied.

HARD ON WILD GAME.—The ground for six weeks this winter was completely covered with snow, and in consequence there has been much suf fering amongst the wild game. Deer throughout the country are more plentiful than for many years, and fall easy victims to those who are disposed to kill them. They are poor and thin for want of food, and often come up to the doors of the farmers to procure something to eat. It is mere wanton ness to destroy them, as they are unfit for food, and if unmolested, by next fall there will be plenty of sport in deer hunting.--Comb. Civilian.

The constitution and bye-laws were adopted by the Convention, and if literally adhered to, will tend 'greatly to elevate the standard of the health-invi gorating exercise of base ball, both morally and physically. COMMERCIAL INTELLIGENCE. (From E. F. Satterthwaite and Co.'s ►Weekly Circular, March 13.) We are so frequently asked to point out some different descriptions of sound investments, with the rate of interest per annum, which, at present market price, they will yield, that we think the following list may prove useful. We have selected a few of the prior obligations of railways at home and abroad, as affording probably some of the safest limas for employment of capital with the greatest certainty of regular payment of interest. The securities enumerated below are, we consider, perfectly good, and at the same time are generally to be had in the market. There are also some Metropolitan Railway Debentures to be had just now, having three years to run, and bearing 5 per cent. interest. . _ It will be seen that an annual interest of from 61 to 4} per cent. may be obtained, and by taking some of one class and some of another, an average rate of income of five per cent. may be secured on the capital invested.

We have to report a fair amount of business in the London market for American Securities since our last. United States 5.20 Bonds of both issues have improved on the decline in the premium on gold reported by telegraph from New York. The earlier issue close 741 to 1, and the 1865 Bonds 721 to 731. The chief feature in the market for Railroad Shares has been the improvement in Eries on higher quotations, accompanied by buying orders from New York, the price has advanced nearly $4, the latest quotations being 391 to 40. Illinois Central have been steady, with a limited amount of business, ranging between 771 and 78. For Virginia Sixes there has been . a renewed inquiry, on the proposed resumption at payment of interest. In Atlantic and Great Western securities there have been numerous transactions, the Certificates of Debenture and Consolidated Bonds both show slight improiement, while for the First and Second Divisional MortgAge Bonds there has been more inquiry, and an advance of three per cent. has been established. _ . • The trustees for the Certificates of Debentures have been notified that a dividend cf twenty-five per cent. in cash is payable on the stock of the Old Creek Railroad. There is $50,000 of this stock lodged at the Bank of England, as well as $331,000 of First Mortgage Seven per Cent. Bonds, as portion of security for the debentures. This comprises all the stock and bonds delivored to the contractor for work done in building the road. (From Gilead A. Smith's Weekly Circular, March 15.) The principal drain upon money during the past fort night has been caused b y the requirements of railway companies to meet their di v idends; but that has subsided, and the demand now is very light. There is a daily increasing plethora of money, and unless some outlet is found before long, it will he a complete drug upon the market. Confidence in railway securities has boon considerably shaken of late, and the fact that the Great Western last week was unable to find the means to pay its declared dividend of 1 per cent. increased the general distrust. Dividends generally have ruled low, but it must be borne in mind that the year gone past has been exceptionally severe to all undertakings requiring financial arrange ments, and the expenses incurred by all railways in these negociations has been very great. The dealings in the Stock Exchange have been limited in a great measure to speculators for a fact ; but bona fide investors are beginning to appear, and making a compa rison of the present prices with those ruling on January let, the lowest prices much be reached before long, and I ould look for a very considerable reaction on the whole market. Consols have advanced to 907-16ths to 9-16ths for ac count upon the Government broker appearing as a pur chaser for the reduction of the National Debt; they close 90 5-16ths to 7-16ths. American Securities have not shared in the general de pression, end 5-20 Bonds show a considerable advance from last week's prices. The cause of this has been the steady fall in gold since the sitting of the new Congress, and the general feeling that there is to be a cessation of political troubles for tho present. (Front Messrs. Bowles, Drevet, and Co.'s Circular) Paris, March 14 Since Friday last, there has been little doing to interest Americans. The heavy purchases of Five-twenties then made caused the day to be especially memorable, the quo tation rising as high as 81 3-16, the highest since these bonds have been placed upon the Bourse. During the week the genera' situation has remained un changed—continued ease of money, little business, and high prices, tolerably well sustained, for almost all classes of securities. To-day, .however, the tendency in the general market is slightly downward. Austrian stocks especially appear to be losing favour. Various reasons are assignable, mostly political, for the check which the ilp e w t a ; r a d m e o l n ov g e t m he o m nt t o h f e titoorepast n fsaivxonwraobellces r h e a p s or a t t s length met; among them the more unfavoU reports which have been received from the German financial centres. Exchange on London has continued at about the same quotation for some time past, viz., for bills, at short sight, from 25 12 to 25 16. United States Bonds have remained unaffected at about 84. The more confidence is shaken in European invest ments, the more it becomes established in American securities. The Five -twenty Bends of 1862 (the only ones quoted here) are each day more and more sought for by capitalists as a permanent investment, while mere specu lators are not so much attracted by them as formerly, when violent fluctuations were the order of the day. 2 F
