The Earl of Cardigan was expected to arrive in Dub lin yesterday in his official capacity of Inspector-General of Cavalry. It is said that several military specta cies are to take place during his lordship's and Sir Colin Campbell's visit to the Irish capital. The surgeons of the several regiments in the garrison of Dublin were occupied on Wednesday in making the selection of men to carry out the official orders for the reduction of the army. The depot of the 60th Rifles, consisting of 12 officers and 880 men, embarked on board the Clyde, steam-trans port, at Kingstown on Wednesday evening. Major Bewes, of the 73d Regiment, Inspector of Mus ketry, has arrived in Belfast for the purpose of selecting a place to carry out the Minis rifle practice of the troops. Owing to the large numbers of convalescent Crimean invalids leaving Chatham almost daily, either for the purpose of rejoining their respective regiments, or to be forwarded to their homes, the number of invalids at present stationed at the invalid depot does not exceed 900 men of all ranks, nearly 600 convalescent invalids having been discharged during the last two months. A large detachment left the depot yesterday morning, the whole of whom it was found necessary to discharge from the service owing to their suffering from sickness or in juries received in the Crimea. The number discharged was 68 men of all ranks, each of whom received his ar rears of pay. Colonel Tullob, whose severe indisposition for the last two mouths has deprived the department of his assist ance, yesterday morning resumed his duties as Superin tendent of the Royal carriage factory at Woolwich Arsenal. The Commandant of Woolwich Garrison, Major- General Sir W. F. Williams, and staff, after presiding at guard-mounting parade yesterday morning, passed in review the artillery recruits, who marched past for inspection, prior to being draughted into detachments for divisional drill. Colonel Bloomfield, Staff Officer, and Superintendent of Drills, subsequently assembled a number of gentlemen cadets, and went through an hour's mortar practice with 8, 10, and 13 inch shells. At the monthly examination of officers for promotion and of candidates for entry into the navy, which termi nated yesterday at the Royal Naval College, Ports mouth, the following passed : Mates, R.N., for Lieutenants—Mess!". A. R. Tink lar, T. W. Chapman, J. L. Gilby, E. Evans, C. H. Williams, F. C. W. Liardet, G. J. Purcell, M. A. S. Hare, W. Dawes, R. R. Armstrong, and H. Hand. For Naval Cadets—Messrs. E. S. Watson, C. R. C. Hamilton, H. A. Lascelles, R. J. F. Edgcumbe, John Hayes, G. F. N. Greville, P. , Briggs, and Edward Drummond. For Masters' Assistant, Charles Love. Her Majesty's steam transport Pacific, Captain W. C. Thompson, arrived at Pembroke yesterday, with 700 officers and men of the 56th and 41st Regiments, from Kingstown. Her Majesty's paddle-wheel steamer Medusa, at Woolwich, is preparing for sea after a complete refit. She is commissioned by Commander Henry Raby. The steam troop-ship Dee, Master-Commander Pullen, has arrived at Woolwich from Dublin, and is ordered up to Deptford to embark naval stores and provisions 'or the fleet in Ireland. The paddlewheel steamer Widgeon, Master-Com maider Umfreville, was despatched yesterday from Woolwich with supernumeraries from the receiving ship Fisgard for vessels fitting out at Sheerness. The following appointments were made yesterday at Use Admiralty : J. F. G. Grant, mate, to the Surprise ; C. P. Bushe, mate, to the Medusa ; G. F. Cottam, mate, to the Mo hawk ; E. Denny, mate, to the Cormorant ; P. G. Mur- ray, midshipman, to the Action ; G. R. Donkin, mid shipman, to the Cxsar ; R. P. Moutray, naval cadet, to the Cruiser; W.

Graham, acting assistant surgeon, to the Raleigh. Dr. David H. Wright is promoted to surgeon, with seniority, May 10, 1856. MILITARY EXECUTION IN PARIS. Sureau, the soldier of the 51st Regiment, who was re cently condemned to death by a courtenartial, for the murder and robbery of an old woman named Gauthier, on the 29th of May last, was executed on Monday. At 4 o'clock in the morning a priest went to his cell in the military prison, Rue du Chercho-Midi, and awoke him. Sureau jumped instantly from his bed, and on being told that his last day had arrived ho broke out into impreca tions against certain persons for not having—as he alleged they might have done—procured him a commu tation of punishment ; but after a while he, on the exhor tations of the chaplain, became calmer, confessed to him, and expressed regret for his crime. He then wrote this letter to his mother :—" Paris, Sept. 8, 6 o'clock in the morning. My dear mother,—l write to you at the mo ment at which I am about to he executed for the crime I have committed. I greatly regret not having seen you. I pardon those who have abandoned me. I have no time to say more; they are waiting for me to do the job I Adieu, dear mother. Your son, L. F. SUREIII." The man was then taken to the chapel, where mass was said. When it was over he said to the prisoners present, " My friends, avoid brandy and bad women! It was when in t ixicated with brandy that I committed my crime Adieu ! lam about to expiate my fault I" He after wards expressed a desire to have something to eat, and a breakfast was provided for 'him, of which he partook heartily. lle was then conveyed in a cellular van to Vin cennes, and on his way he passed before the hou,n in which his crime w.?,s committed. Not fewer than 6,000 soldiers of the garrisons of Vincennes and Paris were as sembled in the Champ de Manasivres to witness the exe cution, and several Prussian, Bavarian, and Belgian offi cers were present. The troops were drawn up in a vast square, so that each man could see clearly all that took place, and four soldiers, four corporals, and four sergeants, all the oldest of their grade, were formed into a platoon to shoot the criminal. Several officers, deputed by the court martial, arrived shortly before the prisoner, and were received by a roll of the drums. Shortly after the cellular van was seen at the extremity of the ground, and it caused a thrill of emotion to run through all the ranks. It advanced slowly—so very slowly that it was fully 10 minutes in reaching the platoon. Eight o'clock having been fixed for the execution, the van was not opened until that hour boomed forth from the clock of the old fortress. Sureau then descended with a firm step, but when he saw the platoon of old soldiers, looking stern arid terrible, he seemed stricken with stupefaction. When he had somewhat recovered, which he did in a few moments, a gendarme offered him a pocket handker chief to bandage his eyes, but he twice refused it. He then, addressing the platoon, requested them to tell their comrades to keep from drink and bad women. Afterwards, taking off his jacket, he said, "I have been a soldier, like you, and am so still I Take a good aim at me—do not tremble !" And, putting his hand on his breast, he said, "Fire here ! do not miss me I" He was then placed on the spot indicated for him, and the judgment condemning him was read aloud. As this was dove ho knelt, and the priest with him. When the reading of the judgment was concluded one of the officers deputed by the court martial cried, "The judg ment must now be executed !" The priest, therefore, kissed the criminal on the forehead and retired, and the man exclaimed, in a firm voice, "Aim well ! Do aot miss me I and take care not to hit; my head !" at the same time folding his arms on his breast. An adju tant who was in command of the Platoon then struck his hands together, and immediately the 12 muskets of the men were levelled at the criminal. There was a moment's pause. The officer again clapped his hands, and at the same instant a report was heard, and the man fell, pierced with 12 balls. It was taken for granted that he was killed, but the surgeons on going up to him found that he was still alive, his frame being agitated by spasmodic movements, and his eyes being wide open and starting from their sockets. A sergeant who had been placed in reserve with a lo a d e d mus k e t was ac cordingly summoned, and he gave the man the coup de grace by discharging the musket in his ear. The troops then filed off slowly before the body, which was left on the ground. The Mayor of Vincennes afterwards drew up a minute of the man having been executed in his commune ; and the body was conveyed in an artil lery waggon filled with etra‘w to the cemetery t o be in ttTred. FRENCII WINES.—Mr. Oliveira, M.P., has arrived in Paris ; he is accompanied by several friends, who are devoting the recess to the accumulation of freAll infor mation iu reference to the wines of the v a ri ous di s t r i c t s of France, and an inquiry into the probable reduction of French duty upon English goods—with a view to lay these facts before Parliament next session. The Cham ber of Commerce of Montpellier, the Tribunal of Com merce, and the Consultative Chamber of the Society of Agriculture of the Htrault have, in the most flattering manner, invited Mr. Oliveira to abanqu , et on Saturday next, and offered to place at his disposal every informa tion upon a question of such interest to the vine culture of France. After leaving Montpellier, these gentlemen intend to visit Dijon, Beaune, .Epernon, and other wine districts.—Ralignani. UNITY GENERAL ASSURANCE ASSOCIATION. [A portion of the following appeared in our late edition last night An extraordinary general meeting of the Unity General Assurance Associati on was held yesterday afternoon at the London Tavern. 'fn consequence of the publication in the daily papers o f several statements referring to the particular transaction which had led to the resignation of Mr. Baylis, Coe managing director, the greatest ex citement prevail ed. The following is a brief statement of the case :—A. gentleman married a lady of some pro perty ; the husband had an income of his own of 80/, a year ; the wife bad one of 5001. On the 17th of January last an insurance on her life, for 2,0001., was effected under her own name at the Glasgow office of the Unity General Assurance Association. On the 2d of April the original policy was changed, and converted to one standing in the name of the husband. On the 30th of June the wife died, the policy for the 2,0001. still remaining in the bands of Mr. Wieland, the local agent, who telegraphed for Dr. Lloyd to come down to Glasgow. Dr. Lloyd is a director and consulting phy sician to the Unity Insurance Office. Suspicion was aroused that the lady had been suffering from some disease which had been concealed. Dr. Lloyd did go down, and a compromise was effected with the hus band, who received 7501. This compromise Mr. Baylis refused to sanction ; and in consequence he sent in his resignation. The other circumstances of the case :are now generally kirawn. The chair was about to he taken by Sir W. 0. Pell, but a gentleman in the body of the meeting suggested an independent person should take the chair. This course was ultimately adopted, and Dr. Davis was chosen to preside over the meeting. The CHAIR LAN, in opening the proceedings, besought a patient hearing for all who might address them, and said that pursuing this course they would conduct their proceedings in such a manner as the importance of the subject demandisd. Mr. J'ACKSOk f, one of the board of directors, then rose, and on the part of the directors, and amidst some im patience, proceeded to address the meeting. He coin- menced by referring to the assurance which had led to this meeting. (Cries of "Name.") He did not think it was necessary to mention the name of the party, but if it was the wish of the meeting he would do so. The name of the party was Aitken, and he resided in Glasgow. The speaker was proceeding to enter into the details of the case, when be was met with cries of " Statement," "Statement." He was sorry to detain them with the observations he felt it his duty to make, but he would at once proceed to state the circumstances con nected with the resignation of Mr. Baylis. The first complaint against Mr. Baylis was gross inattention to the duties of his office, and to all business connected with the office. The speaker then referred to a corres pondence that had taken place between the agents of the company in Toronto and the managing director, which complained of not being properly supplied with the necessary documents to fur ther the interests of the office. The members of the local board could bear him out in his statements, and such being the case the board complained to Mr. Baylis, and told him that the business of the office could not be successfully carried on if such a system was continued, and that they thought he had too many schemes in con templation. (Cries of " Statement.") He would now come to the particular circumstances which so greatly interested them. Mr. Wieland, the agent at Glasgow, was appointed by Mr. Baylis. A SHAREHOLDER—Without the consent of the direc tors Mr. JA.cEsox—Of course the directors consented to the appointment, but they knew nothing of the gentle. man. (Cries of " More shame for them.") The speaker then went into the details of the assurance effected by Mr. Wieland, and also the circumstances connected with the refusal of Mx. Baylis to assent to the compro mise. The compronaise having been made, Mr. Baylis at once declared thfit unless the difference between the sum originally ass•ared, 2,0001., and the sum of 7501., by which the claim had been compromised, namely, 1,2501., was transmitted to Mr. Aitken at Glasgow, he would resign his seat at the board. This course was not adopted, and the resignation followed. This circumstance led to a correspondence which he would read to the meet ing. A number of letters were here read, referring to the transaction, in which Mr. Baylis in one of his letters stated that the statement that had been construed into a sanction of the compromise was arrived at upon in sufficient grounds. Mr. BAtLIS begged to correct the speaker in what he had just read. He protested against the compromise on the 17th of July, and not on the 24th. A SHAREHOLDER asked if there had been any other compromise entered into by the company! Mr. Jecuorr—No. He had written to Mr. Aitken, requesting him to be present at this meeting, but he bad received a letter from him, in which he stated he did not intend to mix himself up in the quarrels of the board. The directors had, at their board meeting, yesterday, received the notice of a claim for 1,2501. from Mr. Aitken, through his solicitor, but the directors had re fused to entertain the claim as it was illegal. The soli citor then applied for a policy, which was given to him. At the same time he was reminded that Mr. Aitken had given a receipt in full for the whole of the sum assured ; but Mr. Aitken had served the company with notice of action, and to show that the board intended to act fairly in the matter, a cheque for 1,2501. had been signed at the board yesterday—(hear, hear)—and it was at the disposal of the meeting. The whole of the cir cumstances was surrounded with doubt, and if it could be legally given to Mr. Aitken, he should feel greatly pleased ; but they could not give this money until a claim had been made ; and whether that claim could be legally made after a receipt in full had been given, re mained a question to be decided. It was the duty of Mr. Baylis, as managing director, if he received a claim upon which he had a doubt, to have summoned a spe cial meeting, and not to have taken upon himself to close this case so precipitately as he had done. He felt sure that the board of directors had but one feeling in the matter, and that was the good and welfare of the society. Mr. TAuarTAN, another member of the board of di rectors, defended the course that had been pursued. He considered it one of the most peasant sounds he ever beard when Mr. Baylis gave in his resignation. Ho was a dictator, and he had frequently regretted that some of the board had so long submitted to be brow beaten by him. The fact was, Mr. Baylis was continu ally pursuing new schemes, which never realised the ex pectations raised. The banking department of the Unity had occupied so much of his attention that he thought the life department had suffered. The expenses of fitting up their premises was enormous. He had been over Wlndsor Palace, but he thought the fittings of their offices would bear comparison with them. There was not a panel or partition which was not Spanish mahogany. (Cries of " Question.") [A SHARIIIIOLDSII,— Why this was done by your own architect.] He felt sure that the directors were animated with the best in tentions towards everybody connected with the institu tion. (Cries of " Baylis.") • Mr. BAYLIS then rose and proceeded to say that in the statement that he had to make to them he should be very brief. (Hear.) He had no great or little fact to conceal. All that he wished to have clearly settled was whether the principles of this institution should or should not be fully carried out. The charge of inatten tion to their duties he heard for the first time to-day. He came there to-day not to enter into a defence of his atten tion to business. He felt that the proper course to have been pursued by the directors, if his attention to their duties was so very loose, was to have called a special meeting, and to have had the whole thing fully discussed, and settled in a proper manner. He believed their banking business would be as successful as any of the share holders could desire. Mr. Baylis then entered into the manner in which the business of the different departments was conducted, and with respect to their life policies be looked upon them as in disputable, except in cases of fraud. Now as to the question which was at present under their attention. The telegraph message from Glasgow was brought to him while he was engaged in business, and be gave the only answer that could be given, namely, to support a gentleman who had conducted their business properly. The answer he gave to the message respecting the compromise was, "Yes, if you think it desirable." (Cries of " Where is your great principle ?") With respect to the compromise he had never heard of the reason why it was commenced. His case was completely put in the pamphlet he had published. If the statements contained in that pam phlet were true, then ho was right. But it the di rectors could prove his statements to be untrue, then of course he was in the wrong. With respect to the charge of negligence that had been brought against him, he felt he had done what was right, and by that it would be for them to judge. It was unfair to pass over the great points in a man's life to find fault with the small ones. He should like to know where they could find a man with whom they could not find fault. If hey continued their confidence in him, he should throw his whole energies into the conduct of ;this business, but it it was withdrawn from him he should deplore such a circumstance, and a time would come when it would be fowl that ha WM not 110 WrOg as had boon mail dered. Ey the decision the meeting should come to with respect to his conduct he should feel perfectly satisfied ; he ar,kecl no favour from any one, bat would stand firmly on the ground he had taken. (Cheers.) Dr. LLOYD then entered into a defence of the part he had taken in effecting the compromise. Sir W. DALYELL was of opinion that great blame was attributable to Mr. Baylis in not having gone down to Glasgow himself. He thought that gentleman did great harm to their institution by always starting new com panies many of which must damage their association, and held up to the meeting the pro-pectns of a new corn pany, which would require twenty-five millions of capital. In answer to a question, whether any undue influence of a medical character had been brought to bear on the husband of the deceased lady to induce him to come to a compromise, Dr. LLOYD said he was happy to give a distinct an swer to that question. He had never seen the man but once, and had never either directly or indirectly alluded to a compromise, because he had no opportunity of doing so, had he been so disposed. He saw the man in the presence of iMr. Wieland, when a long conversation took place about the illness of his wife, and he had never said one word about a post mortem examination. He was told that the body was screwed down, and he in formed Dr. Macfarlane he should not insist on such an examination. When 10001. was asked by the assurer, he said I am a man of a few words ; 7501., which sum was accepted and paid. Rev. Mr. HINE (Manchester) said there was a great mystery abut Mr. Wieland. He represented COO shareholders, and they were all desirous of effecting a reconciliation betweP.sn Mr. Baylis and the directors. He did not understand the cause of their breaking ; but he hoped that meeting would aid in bringing about a peaceful solution of the difficulty. He would therefore propose, as a resolution, that the meeting, viewing the compromise of the life assurance claim at Glasgow as op posed to the constitution of the Unity General Assur ance Association, unjust in principle and injurious to the best interests of the policy and shareholders,—Resolved that the sum of 1,2501. be paid to Mr. Aitken, or the persons legally entitled to receive the same. (Cheers.) He thought that Mr. Baylis and the directors were equally to blame in the matter. Mr. Baylis bad been premature in sending down the cheque without waiting for the board day, and also in sending in his resignation, but he hoped the breach might be healed, and that they would not forget they were the Unity. (Cheers.) Mr. SMITH (Liverpool) seconded the resolution, in the hope that if the vote of that meeting did not legitimise the payment, it would, at least, have the effect of put ting matters in such a train as to lead to an early and satisfactory settlement. (Hear, hear.) It was the more necessary because it was impossiblefor Mr. Baylis, whose great talents he admitted to attend to so many different institutions. He condemned in to .s the compromise which had been mad*, and asserted that whenever a pro posal was made, it was the duty of the directors to make the most strict and searching inquiries previous to its acceptance; but that, once accepted, it should be as inviolable as the laws of the Modes and Persians. (Cheers.) After some discussion, Mr. TAYLOE, the solicitor, said that as that was an ex traordinary meeting, they could not pass such a resolu tion to make it binding upon the directors. In order to do so, it must be passed at the next general meeting in October. Mr. SMITH (Liverpool) would suggest, in order to meet that difficulty, that there should be added to the reso lution the words, "as soon as the said sum can be pro perly and legally paid.' (Cheers.) The resolution, with that addendum, was then put from the chair. Mr. Munn, who was received with great applause, said, as a shareholder, and one anxious to promote good feeling, he bad endeavoured to bring about a reconciliation but had failed. They had gone wrong, and were now about to rectify that wrong. He felt strongly as to the great and commanding abilities of Mr. Baylis, who was a " company-maker," but he must be kept under control, and therefore he approved of the separation of the mana gerial from the directorial functions of the executive. (Cheers.) After a farther and very irregular discussion the rens lution, as amended, was unanimously agreed to. Dr. HEARN they moved--That a committee be ap pointed to inquire into the present position of the asso ciation, and to ascertain what further steps may be necessary to improve the management of the institution, and to report thereupon at the next general meeting. Mr. JACKSON (director) seconded the motion, which was carried unanimously—and a committee of nine shareholders was appointed accordingly. Mr. Mscur proposed that Mr. Baylis should be re stored to the managership pro ton. Mr. SHERMAN seconded the motion. Mr. J AcasoN protested against such a course until the report of the committee was presented, and pro posed as an amendment that no further resolution should be passed by that meeting. Sir W. DALYELL seconded the amendment. Upon being put to the meeting, The CHAIRMAN declared that the original motion was carried, whereupon— Mr. JACKBON demanded a poll, and ecrutineers were appointed. In the midst of the confusion and excitement which ensued, a vote of thanks was given to the Chairman. After the chairman retired, the solicitor of the com pany (Mr. Tayloe) intimated a doubt on the legality of the whole proceedings, and expressed his opinion that a ballot could not be taken, and the proceedings ter minated. CRUEL PERSECUTION AT FLORENCE. The following particulars of a new persecution in Florence will be read with melancholy interest. The sufferer is the widow of a Protestant, named Berretti, who had been enabled to witness to the last a blessed testimony to the faith of Jesus : Berretti's last words were full of faith and rej breathing encouragement to his poor wife, who truly ❑eeded all the support that could be given her, and to be lad to take hold on the help that cannot fail us; for, scarcely was the breath out of her husband's body, when her sore tria!s from without began. First she hada visitfrom the priest, Burra ti (the one to whom poor Cecchetti's imprisonment was mainly awing), who demanded bow she had let her husband die with out the last sacraments of the Church. She replied that "he bad long confessed his sins to God, and re ceived pardon for then through the blood of Jesus, and that, as he had a good hope that the anointing of the Holy Spirit had been vouchsafed to him, he felt in need of no other consolation." At this the priest fell to abusing her most furiously ; "vestro marito e dannat• e soi carets dannata con lui ;" and so, after much threat. ening and noise, he wrote out a formal repudiation of the body, as that of a heretic, and refused burial in consecrated ground. He then assured her that if she persisted in her heresy she would be despised by everybody, to which she replied, " Nu one was despised as Jesus was, and it was too much honour for her to be in anywise like her Lord." And as he persisted in heaping abuse on her and asking questions, the soul of the new made widow grew weary and bitter within her, awl she said, " Senti, Signor Priore, I have seen my husband die in that bed by inches, and almost every week we have been tempted to renounce our faith, for the sake of those comforts which might have softened his suffer ing, and prolonged his life. By the help of God wo have been kept faithful hitherto, and now that he is gone yeu have no longer the power to tempt me. I have drui,k the cup of misery to the dregs ; nothing you can make me suffer can equal the bitterness of his death ; that is past, and I warn you not to waste time and words in trying to influence me new." "We shall see that," growled the priest, and left her for the time. She had then to go with the paper he had left to the tribunal, where new insults awaited her. "What did she mean to do with the cadavereebannater Did she expect help from the police when the Church refused to take it in ? It would just be left where it was, and she ;night lay her account to infection for herself and her children." By this course they sought to terrify her, as you know they universally desire here to bury their dead at once out of their sight. But God seems to have given woe derful strength to the weak, broken•hearted widow. She told them they could do their pleasure. Her dear husband had been precious to her living, and was precious to her dead. She had, by God's mercy, two rooms ; she and her children would retire to one, and the corpse would remain in the other, till they chose to permit of its being taken away. They knew much bettor than she did, if at that season there would be pericolo for the neighbourhood. Seeing that nothing could be made of her, they let her go, and at night a cart was sent (the cholera cart the crowd said it was), a number of gene d'armes surrounding the house, and the poor despised body of the servant of Jesus was carried off to a little enclosure, at the opposite side of the road from the great burial ground on the Strada di Bologna, reser% ed for criminals, unbaptised infants, and any others dying without the passport of the Church. We saw the place two days after—desolate, uncared for, and rank with frowsy vegetation, and thought of the precious dust united even then to the Lord, and of the glorious uprising when the trumpet shall sound, and the beauty of his God shall shine forth unclouded in that despised one Such was the first day of a poor Florentine Chris tian's widowhood. And now I have troubled you with all this, because the next step has been to threaten the poor thing with the loss of her children, three in num ber, the eldest about seven, the youngest still an infant. I hear they propose taking them from her, and putting them into the Assilo Infantile, to bring them up as good Catholics. As yet, only the priest, her own mother, and a rich aunt, are engaged in this worthy attempt, and with them the poor thing has a hope of successful resistance, if only the government does not interfere, in which case it would be hopeless, and the women, spurred on by Burratti, are doing all they can to get the Dale gaelone to take it up. Last week Sir B. Hall, Chief Commissioner of Public Works, visited Glasgow, Perth, and St. Andrews, ac companied by Mr. Matheson, for the purpose of inspect ing t!is various public buildings, under the charge of the Board of Works. [ADvEurisioniNT.J—Britiah College of ,Health, New road, London.—Morison's Vegetable Universal Medi cine is the only medicine that strikes at the root of all diseases- This has been proved by an experience of thirty years, during which time upwards of 400,000 cases of cure have been effected.

The Commissioners appointed to take an ac;;:" lat of the population of irelatA under the provision of the 13th . . and 14th Victoria, chap: 44, Hasid pisertted their g 27) rc+l and contiudinB cot On tile of /01 to his I.'Acelleney the Lord Lieutenant. The report is prefaced by a sketch of the measures taken by the Commissioners to accpmplish the task aSsiOtioid td 4 s-hedi; The enunnerwion, Nvhith -4,itS conducted by the otlicei3 ot the C•cyllst;qml.ry force, assisted by the Coastguard, was performed with entire success, and without the necessity of resorting in a single instance to the compulsory powers given by the statute for obtaining the required information. Tne Commissioners then submit a resume of the qcinz tents of their previous reports, the first of which was A comparative "abstract of the census of Ireland for the years 1341 and 1851," showing by provinces, counties, and towns the number of houses, families, and persons et each of those periods. They next issued Part I. of their publications, comprising the to wnlancl census, which was followed by Part 11., setting forth the agricultural statistics for 1851 and 1852 ; Part being a report on the status of disease) Part IV., a report on ages and education ; and, Part V., report on tables of deaths, comical phenomena, &c. Having arrived at the concluding portion of their la bours the commissioners then proceed : "The present volume of our publications (Part VI.) has reference to the area of the country, its population, habita tions, and house accommodation, its families and their pur suits; also the occupations and degrees of education of the people. These are given for each parish in rural and civic districts by baronies and counties. The inmates of public institutions, their pursuits, and degrees of educ a tion are also given ; while separate tables at the end of each county show the several classes of houses and house accommoda- tion, the condition of the people as to marri age , th e Irish speaking population by ages, and the occupations of the people. " The territorial divisions of the country first claim ob servation. We have used the same boundaries as those given in the census report of 1841; these are provinces, counties, baronies, parishes, and towns. " The boundaries taken for the counties, baronies, and parishes are those marked on the maps of the Ordnance survey ; the municipal boundaries have been adopted for cities and corporate towns, except in the case of Belfast, which had extended itself much beyond the municipal boundary in 1811, and was then, as well as now, considered of so much importance that separate tables were compiled for it, showing the population both within and without the municipal boundary. As regards the extent of towns not having their boundaries legally defined, the same area has been used as was assi g ned to them in 1811. For those towns which appear for the first time in the tables, we have had areas computed from the Ordnance maps, of which tracings have been kept for reference. The word town,' in the tables„ has been used to denote a col lection of 20 houses and upwards, as in the census of 1841. We have also observed the distinction of 'rural' and civic' districts then used, the latter including all towns having 2,000 inhabitants and upwards, exclusive of workhouses." Then follows table 1, showing the proportion in every 100 acres of the total area of Ireland under arable and uncultivated land, plantation, towns, and water, con tained in each county in 1851. Summing up the results of this table the report states: " It appears that, of the four provinces, Munster contains the largest proportion (20.15 per cent.) of the entire surface of Ireland; next in extent is Ulster, which covers 26'31 per cent.; Leinster is third in order, containing 23 . 43 per cent.; Connaught is the smallest, including 21.11 per cent. of the whole area, while at the same time it has the least proportion of arable and the greatest of cultivated land; it has also—with the exception of Ulster, which it nearly equals—the largest properetion of water. Munster has the largest comparative extent of plantations, the ratio being —Munster, 34; Leinster, 33'28; Ulster, 19'22; and Con- naught, 13'40 acres in every 100 of the total number of acres of plantations in Ireland. Leinster has a very small surface covered with water, compared with the other pro vinces ; the proportions to every 100 acres of the entire area being—Ulster, 34-0 j ; Connaught, 33 . 72 ; Munster, 23 . 98; and Leinster, only 8'24 ; the last-mentioned not containing any large lakes, or loughs, similar to the other three. Thus, Ulster is remarkable for Loughs Neagh and Erne ; Con naught for Loughs Corrib and Mark, and also for nanny smaller lakes amid its wild and beautiful mountain scenery; Munster, for the celebrated lakes of Killarney, Lough Derg, the river Shannon, and other lakes and rivers of lesser size and note. Of the proportion under towns, the largest amount falls to Leinster, which contains 41'04 per cent. of the total area under the civic districts, Munster has 31 . 23 ; Ulster, 19.34 ; and Connaught, only 8 . 3'1 per cent. Of the total arable land in the several counties Cork has the greatest proportion-9.36 per cent. ; and Louth, the least-I'l4 per cent. ; these counties respec tively being also the largest and smallest in Ireland. The counties which contain the highest relative amount of their extent uncultivated are—Mayo, 12.95 percent.; Gal way, 11.67; Kerry, 10.43 ; Donegal, 9.38 ; and Cork, 8.1.4 per cent.; these five counties containing together 52.57 per cent., or more than one-half of the total area of uncul tivated land in Ireland. The counties having the least pro portion of uncultivated land are—Dublin, 0.31 per cent.; Carlow, 0.38; Monaghan, 0.42 per cent.; and Meath, 0.49 per cent.; making together but 1.61 per cent. of the entire waste land in the country. Cork contains 10.57 per cent. of the plantations of Ireland; Tipperary, 7.27; Waterford, 6.46 ; Galway, 6.31; and Wicklow, 5.81 per cent.; Car. low, Longford, Leitrim, Armagh, Louth, Monaghan, and Londonderry, taken together, have only 9.30 per cent. of their surface under plantations. The area stated as being under towns includes those only which have 2,000 inhabi tants and upwards. " The counties of Dublin, Down, Cork, and Galway 0' ill tain the largest proportion under t owns in their respective provinces ; Leitrim is the only county in Ireland which has not a town containing 2,000 inhabitants; this was also the case in 1811. Of the whole area covered by water, the largest proportion, 14'26 per cent. is found in the county of Galway ; Clare has more than one-tenth (10'70 per cent.) of the entire surface with water ; Mayo, 9'03 per cent. ; and Antrim, 8'44 per cent. ; the other counties vary from ?'4l per cent., in Fermanagh, to 'O6 per cent. in Dublin and Queen's counties." Table 2 gives the proportion per cent. of the total area of each county and province, under cultivation or other wise, in 1851, compiled from the report on agricultural statistics. Table 3 gives the number of acres in each province, under cultivation or otherwise, in 1841 and 1851 ; also the same reduced to proportions per cent , from which it appears, " On comparing the division of the surface of Ireland in 1811 with 1851, that in 1811 there was 6P7 per cent. of the entire area occupied by arable land, and in 1851 71'1 per cent. ; there has thus been an increase of the arable land of 6.1 per cont. This speaks favourably for the indus try of the people, notwithstanding the great diminution of the population between the two periods. We should here state that in 1811 the areas of the arable and uncul tivated land, of the towns and the water, were computed from the maps of the Ordnance survey ; in 1851 they were taken from the agricultural statistics for that year. It is very difficult to ascertain the exact surface under unculti vated or unprofitable land in a country, especially whore there are large tracts of mountains which, though linen closed, are used for grazing, but, which, to the ordinary observer, appear as unreclaimed and of little value. These figures, however, being the results of actual observation and inquiries by the constabulary enumerators, who year by year traverse the country to obtain the information, may be considered as a near approach to accuracy and when it is considered that the same enumerators do not collect the agricultural statistics in the same locality each year, being liable to transfer from one district to another, the returns bear testimony to the satisfactory manner in which the constabulary have performed their duty. "The decrease in the proportion of uncultivated land gives some criterion of the extent of the reclamation of waste surface since 1841, and it is very grati fying to observe the progress made in the conversion of waste into arable land, more especially in some of the mountainous districts of the country. Thus in 1841 Done gal, Kerry, 'Mayo, Galway, and Wicklow had the largest proportion of uncultivated land to the entire area of each. In 18,1 this proportion, though still high, was consider ably reduced, Donegal having had 21.9 per cent. ; Kerry, 17.0 per cent. ; Mayo, 10.9 per cent. ; Galway, 7.8 per cent. ; and Wicklow, 10.7 per cent. of their area converted from waste into profitable surface during the previous 10 years. "The entire area under plantations would appear to have decreased by 0.33 per cent. between 1811 and 1851. The only counties which show an increase in the extent under plantations are Clare, Kerry, and Leitrim, and this increase is very small. " The number of the rural population to the square mile of arable land, also to the square mile of the entire area in 1841 and 1851, is given by counties in Table 4. The altera tions in the total area of the counties between 1841. and 1851, as given in this table, have been caused by some of the towns which were included in the rural districts in 1841, having been placed in the civic in 1851, and by towns which wete civic in 1851 having been included in the rural districts in 1841, owing to the changes in the number of inhabitants of such towns above or below 2,000. " All towns having 2,000 inhabitants and upwards, ex clusive of workhouses and other public institutions, are omitted from the foregoing table. Considering the diminu tion in the number to the square mile, the increase in the extent of arable land of 2,091'06 square miles between 1841 and 1851 affords a cheering prospect for the permanent em ployment of the labouring classes, and the steady progress of agriculture in Ireland. " We now beg to call attention to the extraordinary de crease in the rural population, which resulted from the famine and emigration of 1815 and following years. In the whole of Ireland there has been a general diminution of the rural population of 53 persons to the square mile of the entire area ; and of 104 to the square mile of arable land. The decrease in the province of Connaught was so high as 60 persons to the square mile of the entire area, 'and 145 to the square mile of arable land ; in Munster the decrease was, to the entire area, 57 persons, and to the arable land 114, to the square mile. Ulster decreased at the rate of 48 to the square mile of the total area, and 126 to the square mile of arable land ; and the province of Leinster decreased by 45 persons for every square mile of its general area, and by 56 for the square mile of arable land. In some of the counties the proportionate decrease is very high, partly caused by the increase in arable land, but principally by the diminution in the numbers of the people. Thus the rural population of the county Donegal warless by 241 to the square mile in 1851 than in 1811, while, according to the returns received the extent of arable land increased from 614-36 square miles in 1841, to 1,083'28 square miles in 1851. In Mayo the rural population diminished from 475 to the square mile in 1841, to 255 in 1851; while the arable land increased by 235.41 square miles. In Kerry the po pulation decreased from 416 to 216, or 200 to the square mile of arable land, the arable land having increased by 315'39 square miles. The counties which show a decrease in the rural population of less than 50 persons to the square mile were Kildare, 32 ; Wexford, 36 ; and Meath 44. The counties which show a decrease of 50, and under 100, in this particular, were Louth, 50; Kilkenny, 51 : West meath, 53; King's and Waterford, each 59; Down, 60; Antrim, 71; Dublin, 76 ; Roscommon, 77; Queen's, 78 ; Carlow, 79 ; Tipperary, 81 ; Armagh, 94; and Wicklow, 96. The remaining counties varied in the rate of decrease in the rur a l population from 104 to 241 persons to the square mile of arable laud. " The number of the entire population to the square mile in 1841 and 1851 is given by counties in Table 5. Both the civic and rural population are included in the computations. Of the entire area of Ireland there has been a decrease of 49 persons to every square mile. " All the counties have decreased in population except Dublin, which shows an increase of 91 persona to tho square mile. Of the provinces, Connaught showed the largest de crease, having diminished by 60 persons to the sq uare mile • The decreased numbers for the other provinces are—Mun ster, 57; Ulster, 44 • an d L e i ns t er 39 p e rbow l to a the Kure mile. The greatest diminution in the numbers to the square mile appears to have taken place in the counties of Monaghan, 117; Cavan, 93; lieecorninon, 8t; Longford, 78 ; Sligo, 73 ; Cork, 71 ; Armagh, 70 ; and Leitrim, 70. The least diminution was in the county of Antrim, which 7 to the square mile between 1841 and 1851 ; Done lost bu,, L Antrim in this respect ; it lost 2 2 persons gal ranks next Antrim Wexford 24 • Kildare, 29; Kerry, to the square mile ; " each; Londonderry, 37; and :0 •; Poem and Wicklow, . eounties exhibit decreases We e eeeeeette, 42. The remaining , ranging frond 45 is6') for every squarj visions of the " Having referred to the territorial u. eatentry, and compared the member of inhebitanie to the ticiti-te wile in 1841 and 1831, we now present Table 6, showing' the eettial number of inhabitants in the country in 1841 and 1861, distinguishing the rural from the civic districts, and exhibiting the rate per cent. of increase) or decrease of population between these periods. In our Re port en Ages and Education (Part IV.) we have already published tables giving the ages of the people, classified by countiete bane:dee, and large towns, and have alluded generally to tile :4,13603 which led to the great diminution of the Irish pepulatioe' betweee 1841 and 1851, of which emigration continues to dinejnish still further, even to the present time, " The movements of a population in times of calamity aro governed by a natural law. If plagues exists in the towns, the inhabitants, to escape its ravages, fly tothe country; if famine visits the country, to supply their wants the rural population flock to the towns (the large m t .° of increase in 1801 in the cities and large towns may be thus, in some degree, accounted for) ; and, if both famine and pestilence come upon the land, then emigration is the only way of Maps) which presents itself. The numerical decrease of the inhabitants between 1841 and 1851 atliolinted to 1,622,739, or 19'85 per cent. ; but this, being merely the difference between the number of the people in 1811 and 1851, without makinc any allow. ante for natural and ordinary increase of population, con veys but very inadequately the effect of the visitation of famine and pestilence, With wl2lch it pleased an all-we Providence to visit Ireland. We may, however, so farms the means at our disposal will perteit, estimate the num ber which it rnlcht reasonably be e pectecl would have been living in this country if the extrao:dinary number of deaths and emigration had not lessened th., population in such an unusual degree. " Unfortunately, Ireland has not eeet been favoured by the Legislature with a general measure tot theregistration of the births, marriages, and deaths of its people, and is, in this respect, an exceptional portion of the United Xingdoin. We cannot, therefore, state the annual average number of births and deaths to the population ; and, in the absence of such a registration, we conceive Nye can find no better data for our computations than the averages of the births and deaths which have been regularly registered in Eng land and Wales since 1837. " In the able reports of Mr. Graham, the Registrar-Ge neral, these averages are carried on from year to year ; and in the latest of them, the 16th, we find that the births end deaths registered for a period of 15 years in all England and Wales have been at the annual rate of one birth to every 31, and one death to every 45 persons living. Apply jug these rates to the population of the country in le4l, and assuming that the emigration was equal to the immi gration, we find that the population on the 30th of March, 1851, would have probably numbered 9,018,799 instead of 6,552,385, and that, consequently, the loss of population between 1841 and 1851 may be computed at the enormous amount of 2,466,414 persons. The population removed from us by death and emigration belonged principally to the lower classes—among whom famine and disease, in all such calamitous visitations, make the greatest ravages. But, notwithstanding our sudden depopulation, we have every cause for thankfulness that years of suffering have been followed by years of prosperity ; for Ireland has in creased in wealth and progressed in the development of her resources; as it appears that in 1851 the extent of land under cultivation, the value of agricultural stock and crops, and the proportionate number of educated among the people were greater than at any previous period of which we have a record." Table 7 shows the probable number of inhabitants which would have been in Ireland on the 30th of March, 1851, had emigration and immigration been equal—cal- culated on the average number of births and deaths in England and. Wales ; being at the rate of 1 birth to 31, and 1 death to 45 of the population. " This rate of increase is equal to 1.00 per cent. per annum, and may, we think, be considered as very nearly representing what the increase of the population of Ire , land would naturally be by the excess of births over deaths. The rate of increase between 1831 and 1841, ac carding to the Census Report of 1841, page 8, was 0.12 per cent. per annum, but it was considered that this rate did not truly represent the increase between these years , as the Commissioners believed that the numbers returned in 1831 were greater than the real population, or, at all events; that any error was rather one of excess than defect, because the census for 1831. was taken in different places at different times, extending over a considerable period ; and it was understood that- the enumerators considered they would be paid, and in many cases were paid, in pro portion to the numbers they enumerated, the obvious tend ency of which would be to augment the total numbers. For the same reason that the rate of increase between 1831 and 1841 was defective, the rate between 1821 and 1831 would also be erroneeus; that increase was at the rate of 1.34 per cent. per annum. We cannot, therefore, test the accuracy of the rate assumed by us by the increase between either of these periods. As, however, the Census Commissioners of 1841 state, with regard to the census of 1821, that it was the first successful occasion of enumerating the people in Ireland, and considered that the number given was `rather below than above the truth,' we may take the in crease between 1821 and 1841, which was at the rate of 0 . 92 per cent. per annum, as corroborating, in the absence of better data, the probable correctness of the supposition that the increase of the population, by the excess of births over deaths, is not so dissimilar in England and Ireland as is generally supposed." Table 8 gives a comparative view of the proportion per cent. of males and females at specified ages in 1841 and 1851 by provinces, counties, and towns. It will be observed from it that the proportions living at the various ages in 1841 varied but little in amount in each county ; and the same may be said of the proportions at each age in the several counties in 1851, although they differ from the proportions in 1841, from whieh circumstance it may be inferred that the same cauAlhas been in opera tion throughout the country at both periods in influenc ing the individual when stating his or her age. "As in the census tables of 1841, we have divided the number of persons in each family into 'Heads of Fami lies and their Children,' Visitors,' and Servants.' " The proportion of these several classes, according to the return& received in 1841 and 1851, are given in Table 9, from which we find that in all Ireland there was an in crease of 0.3 per cent. of males, and 3'4 per cent. of females in 1851, in the proportionate numbers representing the heads of families and their children. In the province of Leinster there was an increase of I's per cent. of males, and 3.9 of females • and in Ulster of 1 per cent. males, and 3.6 per cont. of females in these proportions ; while in Munster, and also in Connaught, there was a slight de crease of males in each of 0•8 per cent. Under this divi sion females, however, increased 3 . 3 per cent. in Munster, and 2 . 5 per cent. in Connaught. "In the several counties and towns the proportion which the number of males bears among the heads of fami lies and their children to the total male population varied when compared with 1841—the proportion of females in this class have increased in every county, city, and large town ." Then follows Table 9, showing the proportion per cent. of " heads of families," of "visitors," and of "servants ;" also the proportion of males and females to every 100 persons in 1841 and 1851 respectively. Table 10 gives the increase or decrease in the last-named cate gories between 1841 and 1851. From Table 11 it ap pears that the total number of inmates of workhouses on the 30th Mareh, 1851, in all Ireland, was 249,877 ; of whom 101,138 were males and 148 , 739 f e ma l es. In the gaols, on the same day, there were 12,368 males and 3,530 females ; and in the hospitals and sanitary institu tions 7,136 males and 6,255 females. The total number of inmates of public institutions was theretore 279,166, of whom 120,642 were males and 158,524 ferna'es, or 4 . 3 per cent. of the entire population of the country. The report then continues : " The (*unties which exhibited a decrease in 1851 in the proportionate number of males, in the class of ' Heads of Families and their Children,' were Kings, 0.9 per cent. ; Longford, o'3 per cant. ' • Meath, o'l per cent.; Westmeath, 0.4 per cent. ; Clare, o'2 per cent. ; Cork, 2.8 per cent. ; Kerry, PI per cent.; Waterford, 0.9 per cent. • Cavan, o'9 - per cent.; Fermanagh, 0.5 per c ent. ; Monaghan. o'B por each 01 per cent. ; Mayo, 0 . 8 cent. ; Galway and Leitrim , percent. ; and Roscommon, 1.1 per cent. Under this head the cities and large towns which showed a decrease were Drogheda, 2'3 per cent. ; Limerick city, 2.5 per cent. ; and Galway town, F 9 per cent. " The proportion per cent. of male ' visitors' to the male population has decreased in every county and large town, with the exception of Drogheda, in which the increase is 0 . 1 per cent., and Limerick city, in which it is o'3 per cent. ; there was not any increase in the proportion of female visitors. " The proportion of male servants to the population of the same sex increased in every county ' , city, and largo town with the exception of the city of "Waterford, in which there was a decrease under this head of 0.8 per cent. The propor tionate number of female servants of the female population decreased in the following counties and towns :—Limerick county, 0 . 8 per cent.; Drogheda town, 0 . 5 per cent.; Dub lin city, o'3 per cent. ; Donegal, Down, and the city of Kilkenny, each 0.2 per cent. ; and Cavan and Tipperary, 0•1 per cent. each. The rural districts of Ireland contain a larger proportion of the population und e r t he class of ' Heads of Families and their Children' than the civic districts. A larger proportion of visitors was found in the civic than the rural; and a greater proportion of male servants is found in the rural, and of female servants in the civic districts. The number of males in Ireland to every 100 persons in 1841 was 49.2 ; in 1851 it was 48.7. The number of females to every 100 persons in IS4I was 50'8 ; and in 1851 it was 51'3 ; there was, therefore, a de crease of o's per cent. in the proportionate number of males, and a corresponding increase in the proportionate number of females. " The changes which took place between 1841 and 1851 in the proportions to the population of 'Heads of Families and their Children,' of ' Visitors and Servants, and also the variations in the proportion of males and females to the population, are given in Table 10, by provinces, come. ties, and towns. " With regard to the class visitors, it is to be observed that the inmates of public institutions have been placed under that head in the tables for 1851, while in 1841 they were included in the general population. These institu tions have greatly increased in number since 1841, by the erection of union workhouses, prisons, lunatic asylums, /to. It has been considered necessary to enumerate their inmates pseaprainragtetlhy nd e ; p a repe , rt i i n en o a r t d e e n r u t m o be p r re e v f ent an y error visitors iu in m 1841 cwoith that class in 1851, the inmates of public establishments have been excluded from the calculations.

In Cl are th ere was 9'4 per cent., inLimerick city B'7 per cent., and in Tipperary B'o per cent. The county of Down had the least proportion of any of the counties, being only equa l to 0.6 per cent. Antrim had but 1, and Donegal I'l per cent.
