Nearly 40,000 acres of etritiy,s.ted land have been submerged., and their cultivators been driven from their dwellings to seek shelter in schools and churches, and to eat the bread of charity. The number of cattle drowned or killed it is impossible to state with accuracy, but it is said to amount to several thousand. This, however, is a slight calamity compared with the loss of human life, which, not withstanding every effort made by the authorities to render assistance, has swollen to a high figure. When the dyke broke at Lecuwen the waters rushed through with such fearful violence as to carry all before them ; houses, barns, and trees tumbled down at their approach; how; then, could the labourers on the dyke and their families resist the crushing strength of the flood and the ice masses? The descriptions sent me from the scene of desolation are really shocking. What the poor creatures, whose homely dwellings but recently afforded them a comfortable shelter, have had to encounter in . the form of cold, naked ness,' and starvation, is almost increaitle. Truth, indeed, in this ease is stranger, much stranger than fiction. One family of eight has entirely disappeared—carried away by the flood, after enduring all the horrors with which frost and hunger are always accompanied. Among all the survivors there is mourning, lamentation, and woe, not only on account of desolated homes, but on account of parents, children, and friends whom this fearful plague of waters has wrenched from their embrace. Never, perhaps, has the spirit of charity and love been so diffused among a people as it is now among the Dutch, as they listen to the tales of sorrow of the bereaved and the desolate. In unstinted measure they give of their abundance through the length and breadth of the land. The King, attended by other members of the Royal family, has just returned from a visit to the inun dated districts, where he won for himself the affection of his smitten subjects by his bounty and sympathy. In a letter to the Minister of the In terior he has declared that, on the 19th instant (his birthday), a collection shall be made through the whole country, from door to door, for the benefit of the survivors of this fearful visitation, and in addi tion to the 20,000 guilders he has already given has headed the national subscription with a contribu tion of ,40,000 guilders. No wonder that on his return yesterday from his mission of mercy he was hailed, wherever he passed, with those acclamations which burst forth only from a nation's love and admiration.

"No one can regret more than I do the course which the Government has taken in regard to Re form, and the tone which Lord John Russell thought fit to assume in sneaking of it. But approving, as I do heartily, his policy and theirs on the question. which is now most important of all, the preservation. of the peace of Europe, and contrasting it With the ill•defined, but, to my mind, most dangerous views put forward by Mr. Disraeli, I could not think it right to play into the hands of the Opposition by joining in attacks on the Government, where BO practical end was to be obtained by doing so. " The vote of Tuesday night simply amounted to a declaration that it was not then desirable to pass censure •on Ministers for the omission of Reform in. the Queen's Speech. Many Liberal members, lam aware, left the house in order not to vote at all. My opinion, formed on the grounds I have stated, was a very decided one, and I thought it the more consistent course to express that opinion by my vote. " With regard to my notice of amendment to Mr. Locke King's motion, I have no doubt whatever that when the debate comes on I shall be able to justify my conduct. There may be some truth in. the common saying, that a select committee is often used for shelving inconvenient questions, but the case is different when, for all practical purposes, the question is already on the shelf. " You say that others have taken the same view of my conduct that you have done.

" Westminster Palace Hotel, London, S.W., February 8." ' (Reply.) " Norwich, Feb. 9. " Dear Sir,--I beg to acknowledge your favour of the Bth instant. I do not for a moment suppose that you have acted otherwise than with perfect conscientiousness in the vote you gave on Tuesday night, as well as in the notice of amendment on: Mr. Locke King's motion for the extension of the county franchise. All who know you will bear ready testimony to .your honesty of purpose and unflinching adherence to principle. " I cordially concur, too, in your warmly expressed approbation of the foreign policy of Lord John, Russell, and should be sorry to furnish Lord Derby and Mr. Disraeli with an opportunity of giving offi cial importance to their Austrian and despotic ten dencies. " Nevertheless, I cannot accept your conclusions on the subject of parliamentary reform, nor give you reason to think that the explanation of your conduct with reference to it will be satisfactory to that portion of your supporters who, like myself, advocate a full, fair, and free representation of the people in Parliament. " An earnest advocacy of the Ministerial foreign policy is not incompatible with a legitimate and thorough development of our representative in stitutions. The Cabinet,' to say the least, has trifled :with the question of parliamentary reform. They have invited defeat by languid advocacy, and then tamely acquiesced in it as a thing inevitable. On Tuesday night the liberal members had a fine opportunity of rebuking this half-hearted policy, and demanding from the Ministry the faithful fulfil ment of their pledges to the country on their acceptance of office. "It is an old Tory argument to deny that the present is the proper time for reform. If left to them, the right opportunity would river come. I regret that you are influenced by the bugbear of Tory ascendancy. If the Government were in earnest on reform, only let the Tories defeat the m, and then an appeal to the country would soon settle the question, and render them omnipotent for good, alike as to their home and foreign policy. " Rderring more especially to Mr. Locke King's motion, you observe that your amendment will not shelve it, because it is already on the shelf.' But who put it there? and why paralyse the hand that would remove it from its quiet resting-place ? Itb has been shelved because the Ministry undertook themselves to carry the measure, and, failing to fulfil their engagment, the natural guardian assumes the parental care of the child, which for a time he had delegated to other, but, as it proves, less faith ful protectors. It does not appear to me to be consistent with an honest desire for the well-being of the child to interfere in the resumption of parental authority. The attempt to thwart Mr. Locke King might consistently come from the Tory benches ; but when a reformer suggests the impediment to his success it inevitably raises the suspicion of treason to the cause itself. " I do not for a moment believe that you contem plate anything of the kind; but I am at a loss to anticipate the argument which will preface the amendment, and which will result in a different conclusion.—l am, dear sir, yours faithfully, " J . , C.

HUDDERSFIELD, Feb. 12.—The weather having set in again cold has helped a few sales in winter goods. There is also a little doing in spring and summer patterns, but the amount of business alto gether is much below what is usually done at this season. The business doing in wools at present is very trifling, but the stocks on hand are low, which assists dealers in maintaining nearly the usual prices.' LEICESTER, 13th.—The hosiery trade remains rather quiet, and there is barely an average amount of business doing. Goods are made with caution, and for the most part limited to the demand. In the adjacent hosiery districts machinery is by no means fully employed. Stocks are kept as low as possible. The wool market is rather unsteady, and there is not much demand for material. No im portant change in yarns. NEWCASTLE-ON -TYNE, Feb. 11.—Trade upon the whole is opening out here for the spring satisfac torily. The black hardware trade of above bridge, the fire brick and retort trade, engine building, and some other branches are active ; indeed, the black hardware and the fire brick trades have not been more active for soil:ie time past. The freight market is not very lively. East India and China freights have a downward tendency, and freights for the Mediterranean and the United States are in a tranquil state. South American freights are firmer, and London freights, on account of the bad weather, have risen to 7s 6d per ton for coals. Ac cording to the Custom-house returns 79,853 tons of coal were exported over sea from Newcastle in January, 36,066 tons from Sunderland, and 26,62 tons from Hartlepool ; 201,743 tons were exported to London arid coastwise from Newcastle in January, 170,558 tons from Sunderland, and 103,614 tons from Hartlepool. There was a falling off in the value of goods, other than coals and coke, exported from Newcastle in January, 1861, amounting to £23,698, as compared with January, 1860, and of £191,029 from Hartle pool. There was a slight increase at Sunderland and Middlesborough. The Newcastle Chamber of Commerce has taken action against the renewal of the London coal tax. NOTTINGIEAM, 13T11.—There is very little more demand for any description of lace this week. The few buyers (both home and continental) who are in the market are purchasing in limited quantities. The spring is advancing, when there is usually a good trade, but at present the business doing is very much below an average of previous years. Manufacturers are finishing cautiously, and very little is being made except to order. A good deal of machinery is, therefore, standing, or working short time. There continues to be rather more doing in the hosiery trade, the hands are being better employed, and manufacturers are more san guine as to the future. OUR TRADE WITH LOMBARDY. The " correspondence relating to Italy," which has been laid before Parliament, contains a report from Mr. Consul General Otway, dated Milan, January 10, 1861,'0n the commerce of Lombardy and the way in which it has been affected by the annexation to Piedmont. He states that most of the articles which reach Milan from England come through Genoa, where the duty is paid, and it has not been in his power to procure any official account of the British merchandise which finds its way into Lombardy. He considers that trade is kept slack by the unwillingness of purchasers to have large stocks by them until political affairs become more settled and reassuring, and the youth of the country who have been running after mili tary adventure return to their trades and profes sions. Nevertheless, he learns from private sources that the trade with England has already become more active than before, in consequence of the introduction of the customs' tariff of ancient Pied mont, with very moderate duties in comparison with the preceding Austrian tariff, under which indeed the trade with this country was extremely limited, and in fact principally contraband, owing to the differential duties in favour of the countries of the Zollverein. One of his d informants states that the import of cottons and woollen stuffs from England h o a Ub , printe sen sibly increased; cottons, he says, have e i l n great and the woollen goods of Yorkshire request. But France and Belgium of better taste ticles which are considered finer and and avrreoduce ar other than the English ; and th e g lac n e e out of fashion or manu factures of Nottingham superseded by the finnedralir'eren°ch and Belgian pro ductions.

S ilk stuffs for ladies' dresses are generally imported from Lyons, where they are manufactured at a cheaper rate than the Eng lish. The importation of iron from England is described to the Consul as having much in creased, "to the serious prejudice of our own Lom bard production, in consequence of the lower prices, although in various sorts English iron is of inferior quality to ours. As for the principal export of Lombardy, silk, the English demandhas dwindled almost to nothing within these four years, owi ng to the high prica, and the Chiiese and Asiatic silks have superseded it ; but the question of merit between the two cannot be solved, until the cessation of the malady which has prevailed in Lombardy and damaged the:quality of its produce —for which, however, there is no lack of markets, though London. is not now among them, THE SUN, LONDON, THURSDKai EVENING, FEBRUARY 14, 186 L TILE DEBT INDIA AND PACIFIC MAILS. SOU I HAMPTON, Pit. 13. The Royal Mail Company's ship Atrato, Captain Woolley, with the above mails, has arrived here. She brings in all 42 passenfters at:hong whom are Captain Batchelor, Od West India Regiment; Deputy-Assistabt-Commissary-General Fisting ; Viscount and Lady di Pietro; and also six distressed British seamen of the barque Parland, froth litetnel. Her specie amounts to 482,882 dais., consisting of 79,939 doll, in gold and 402,943 in silver, and also £l,BBO in pearls, besides the following general cargo of merchandise :-100 serons of cochineal, 1,578 serons of indigo, 15 cases of plants, 313 bales of bark, 15 casks of coffee, 12 bales of sarsaparilla, 31 packages of indiarubber, 171 packages of silver ore, 9 cases of tortoiseshell, 60 cases of limes, 128 bags of cocoa, 554 packages of sundry merchandise. The events at Jamaica, during the fortnight have been few and unimportant. The Hon. Mr. Kemble, late Acting Attorney-General, has been appointed judge in the room of the Hon. D. O'Reilly, deceased. Mr. Williams has taken the place of Mr. Kemble as Acting Attorney-General, and also the office of Advocate-General of the Admiralty Court. His Excellency the Governor has published for general information a circular despatch from the Duke of Nc-wcfisao respecting Mn alteration in the mode of propelling steamers. The trash house on Worthy park estate, the property of the Hon. George Price, was destroyed by fire on the 14th ult. The weather is still pleasantly cool, and there were few cases.of fever. At Barbadoes the elections had terminated very quietly. The new Session of the Legislature had been opened by the Governor on the 23d of January. In his speech the unhappy militia question held a prominent place. Mr. Charles Packer, Solicitor- General, had been appointed Speaker of the new House of Assembly. A committee had been ap pointed to prepare, in co-operation with the Coun cil, an address to Prince Alfred on his visit to the island, and to make arrangements for his re ception. The young cane crop had been nearly all planted throughout the island, and the plants had everywhere a good spring. The old canes continued to improve with the genial weather they were get ting, and were ripening very favourably. Sugar making had commenced here and there, but the general reaping was not expected to be set about before the middle of next month. The public health appeared to be good. At Demerara the Court of Policy had held two sittings in the past fortnight, but the business transacted was only of local interest. The Court had resolved to abolish the present cumbrous mode of granting patents in the colony, by passing a separate ordinance for each, and a bill will shortly be introduced by the Attorney-General for this pur pose. The ship Ulysses arrived from Calcutta on the 9th inst., after a voyage of 80 days, with 300 immigrants. The mortality amounts to 65 adults and children; of these 45 died from cholera. on the Arabian coast,named Kalat el Wedj, about half Way between Otbyea and Yambo. Thence to Medina is 11 cleat &vs' journey, by a road Whieh strikes into the greatAtravan route from Cairo, and Which lies thronkholi in the open plain.

The Viceroy's return nay be looked for towards the end of this month. nephew, Ismail Pasha, the heir apparent to the Viceroyalty, was previous to Said Pasha's deparbre appointed Wekil or Regent, the nomination laving been' confirmed by the Imperial Government of Constantinople. Her Majesty's surveying ship Firefly has returned to Alexandria. During his ship's absence Captain Mansell has been actively engaged in his hydro graphic survey of the Gdf of Suez. The first stage of the work, as far as theetate of the weather would admit, is now completal, and the Firefly accord ingly returns to Malta, tlere to spend the remainder of the winter. In the pring, it is expected, she will be engaged in taling soundings of the line r proposed for the direr, telegraph. cable between _Malta and Alexandria. With the Red Sea lighlhoases also, I am informed , very little progress is likely to be made until the return of summer. Th 3 one now in course of build ing is that situated at the entrance of the Straits oflubal. The next to be completed will be fur ther down the Red Sea,on a small rocky islet near the Egyptian coast; the third and last about 15 miles south of Suez. M. de Lesseps is still in Egypt and still wasting his energies and perseverance on the same hopeless cause. The general position of affairs in the Isthmus continues meanwhile precisely the same. I should be glad to be permitted b avail myself of this oppor tunity to correct a statement contained in one of my recent letters. Referring to certain disturbances that had occurred among the Bedouins in the vicinity of Suez, I mentioned that they were stated to have taken place among a number of men recruited by M. de Lesseps for the canal works. I alluded to an earlier report, that the distuithances in question were a propos of the lighthouses. The latter turned out to be the correct version. The quarrel appears to have arisen between two rival tribes of Bedouins, each of which asserted its right to monopolise the advantages that might be obtainable from the in troduction of the lightlouses upon what both parties claimed as their territory. The Viceroy's little son Toussoun Pasha, shortly before his father's departure, underwent at Cairo the rite of circumcision. The ceremony was per formed without any of tae display customary on such occasions, but it wts followed a few days afterwards by a military fde and banquet. The little Prince, having 3.0 W attained the mature age of seven years, enters ipon the enjoyment of a separate establishment of his own. Towards its formation he has already been presented with a couple of Circassian female slaves, while the English nurse under whose charge tie has hitherto been is about to be discharged.— Tim es . niable claim, and he had no doubt that tht Legis lature would recognise the claim of such property, intelligence, and population. (Loud cheers.) The motion was put and carried unanimously, a few nathes being added to the committee as originally proposed. Mr. DUNFORD proposed, and Mr. DEtANt seconded, a resolution for a petition to Parliament in favour of the bill for the enfranchisement of the borough of Chtlsea and Kensington, which was carried. A vote of thanks to the chairman terminated the proceedings. APLUNION OP LONDON. The Council of the Art-Union of London being anxious to assist in the cultivation of Fine Art and the practice of Design, as applied to manufactures, and especially with reference to the Celteols in connexion with the Science and Art Departnlett of the Committee of Council on Education, propose, with the concurrence of that department, to set apart the sum of £lOO each year, to be offered to the pupils in those schools on certain conditions. The council consider it desirable to promote the study of the human and animal forms, containing as they do so much interest, variety, and beauty, and the full acquaintance with which, once attained, seconded by freedom and mastery of handling, will give the student fuller powers of conception and greater facility of treatment. These qualities are essential for raising ornamental art to a high state of perfection, and for enabling the prOductions of England to compete successfully with those of other countries, where the art education of the manufac turer is more cultivated. There will be five pre miums of £lO each, and 10 premiums of £5 each, to be competed for by persons being bona fide pupils in any of the schools of art in connexion with the above department. The following are the conditions to be observed by the competitors :- 1. Any of the following subjects will be received in competition :—A painting in watercolour, mono chrome, of a single human figure or group partially draped, from life ; a painting in watercolour, mono chrome, of a single animal or group of animals, from life ; a drawing in chalk of the Laocoon group. Shaded drawings —a design for a sideboard, 10ft wide; a design for a bookcase, 12ft wide ; a design for a bronze candelabrum, sft high, size ; a design for a garden flower vase, 3ft high, 4- size; a majolica dish, 15in diameter, blue monochrome, the centre subject a head of her Majesty. A model for a prize cup, to be executed in silver, 18in high; a model for a clockcase for a mantelshelf ; a model for a pedestal for the reduced bust of Clytie or Belvedere Appollo—width of bust 10in, size of base sin dia meter ; a model for a candlestick for a mantelshelf ; a model for a tazza, 12in diameter, ornamented within in low relief, to be produced in cast iron or bronze. 2. The drawings and paintings must be in all cases the size of the imperial sheet (291:by 21* inches), or one half or one quarter that size, and are not to be framed. The models must be in wax, plaster, or terracotta. 3. On or before the 10th of June, each school of art intending to compete must send to the office of the Art Union a list of the works about to be sub mitted, with a certificate from the head master, to the effect that each work is the exclusive produc tion of the pupil whose name is attached to it. 4. The several works are to be sent to the office of the Art-Union, or such other place as the council may :determine, on any day from the 24th to the 30th of June, 1861, inclusive, and must be carriage paid. The models should be wrapt in soft piper, and then closely packed with sawdust in a case. 5. The whole of the work", or such portion as the council may determine, will be publicly exhibited. 6. The several rewarded works, with the copy right, will become the property of the Art-Union of London ; but if any work should be produced for distribution, a further sum will be paid to the author for superintending its production. 7. No premium will be awarded unless the works sent in competition be, in the opinion of the council, of sufficient merit and importance. 8. The greatest care will be taken of the several works, but the council will not hold themselves responsible for any damage or injury they may sustain by fire, accident, or otherwise. 9. Works sent in competition for the prizes awarded by the Department of Science and Art will .be admissible to compete for the premiums above offered. IRELAND. DUBLIN, WEDNESDAY MORNING. TIIE LEGAL APPOINTMENTS. Letters patent appointing the Right Hon. Richard Deasy as one of the barons of her Ma jesty's Court of Exchequer in Ireland have passed the great seal. Letters patent appointing Mr. James Anthony Lawson as her Majesty's Solicitor-General for Ire land have also passed the great seal. Letters patent have also been sealed appointing Mr. Thomas O'Hagan,as her Majesty's Attorney- General for Ireland. The above gentlemen will be sworn in at half-pas eleven o'clock on this day. THE REV. HUGH ALLEN. At the Shrovetide commencements of Trinity College, held yesterday, the Rev. Hugh Allen, of St. George's-in-the-East notoriety, received the de grees of B.D. and D.D. PACIFIC. Chili.—From this Republic the news is unim portant. In local matters the approaching elec tions engage public attention, and it is hoped that both the Government and the Opposition parties will agree on a line of policy which will tend to prevent a disturbance. In the South the Indians have fearfully ravaged the country, burning the forage and pastures, in order to deprive the army ©f all the resources the country might afford. The market continues well supplied, and an improve ment in business is daily looked for. Manufactured goods, metals, and liquors are abundant. Carolina rice is scarce and in demand. FROM THE CAUCA. The brig Bazaar, Francis, arrived in port on Tuesday from Temaco. The defeat of the Govern ment forces under Cordova in Sachacoco, by Gene ral Obando, is corifirmed. Cordova had fled to Pasto, his people having dispersed. General Obando had passed the Juanambre, having decided to take Pasto. Tuquerres had pronounced in favour of the State of Cauca. It is also confirmed that Antioquia is determined to remain neutral. The entire tenour of the news is unfavourable to the general Govern ment, and we may soon expect to hear of a great and decisive battle on the plains of Bogota. Advices from Santa Martha were to the 29th of December last. The defeat of Generals Paris and Briceno in El Banco was confirmed. The latter was said to have retreated up the river with only 4 200 men out of the 1,100 with which he had attacked the other party at El Banco. The rumour of the reverse said to have been experienced by General Mosquera originated from a letter which had been written by General Enao to the Secretary of State of Cauca, informing him that, in consequence of General. Mosquera having invaded the territory of Cundinamarca, he considered the terms of his agree ment dissolved, and that he would, with his forces, obey the order of the General Government. General Paris was marching with his division to Bogota, and General Mosquera remained in the department of Nieva, where some of the districts had pro nounced in his favour. It was said that General Lopez had joined the Liberal party, and offered to assist them with 2,000 men. In Bogota there were about 2,500 troops, and a good deal of discontent existed there on account of the manner in which the forced contribution (under the law of 1837) was assessed. The Government had not proceeded to make any forced loan, as the Supreme Court had decided that it was unconstitutional. STATE OF EGYPT. ALEXANDRIA, FEB. 2. The most noticeable event that has occurred here since the date of my last letter is the departure of Said Pasha on his pilgrimage to the holy cities of the Hedgaz. There is good reason to believe that the Viceroy has never Lilt any very strong inclina tion for the journey, but he had talked about it for a long time past, and various causes, to which the importunities of the Harem would doubtless add considerable weight, combined together to urge upon him the execution of his plans. The consent of the Porte was accordingly solicited ; in due course it was obtained, and the arrangements were ' gradually completed. There was nothing, there fore, in the least sudden or hurried in the matter ; and yet, from some cause or causes which I could only attempt to explain by having recourse to con jectures more or less plausible, a strong opposition was at the last moment raised against the execution of the Viceroy's plans. The objections were vaguely stated to be of a public nature—not simply on the ground of anxiety for the personal safety of the Viceroy. The latter would have been perfectly intelligible, since no one doubts that, whether by high or low, a journey such as that which Said Pasha has under taken cannot be performed without a certain amount of risk. Several of the highest functionaries of the Government joined in signing the petition by which the Viceroy was entreated to abandon his inten tions. The result was that they were instantly dismissed from their posts. The Viceroy, with his brother-in-law, Kamil Pasha, and with an escort of about 400 men, em barked in two steamers belonging to the Red Sea Company, and sailed from Suez last week. They are accompanied by the Peninsular and Oriental Company's steamer Pottinger, with Mr. West, her Majesty's Consul at Suez ; but his journey, as I am informed, is chiefly in connection with matters relating to the lighthouse in course of erection at the entrance of the Gulf of Suez. It was thought likely that the party would fall in with her Majesty's steamer Hornet, in which case she will be requested, in the name of our Con sul-General, Mr. Colquhoun, to escort the little squadron to its destination. This is a small port ENFRANCHISEMENT OF KENSINGTON. Last night a public meetiag of the inhabitants of Kensington and the surrunding district was held at the Vestry-room, Kensington, for the purpose of supporting the bill for the enfranchisement of Chelsea and Kensington—Hr. Greenway, church warden, in the chair. The CIIAIRMAN briefly stated the object for which the meeting was called, and read a letter from Mr. Whalley, M.P., expressing regret that he was not able to attend. Captain SHUTTLEWORTII moved the following resolution :—" That this meeting hereby records its conviction of the indisputable claim of this district, arising from the population, extent, and large amount paid by it to the taxation of the State, to a direct representation in the Commons House of Parliament." He was so sure that the resolution carried with it its own recommendation that he should do no more than simply propose it. Mr. WALKER, chairman of the Chelsea board of guardians, seconded the resolution. Mr. FIELDE moved the following addendum : " That this meeting, having no confidence in her Majesty's Government, is of opinion that the best way of securing two representatives for the new borough is to request Mr. Bright to bring in his Reform Bill without delay." (Oh, oh.) Mr. PRIEST seconded the amendment, for which only the proposer and seconder held up their hands. The original resolution was then put and adopted unanimously. Mr. WILKINs proposed the following resolution : That the meeting approves of the bill brought in by Lord Enfield for , giving two members to Kensington and Chelsea." Mr. ARCIIBUTT seconded the motion. Mr. SEARLE said he felt, as an old inhabitant of the district, that he ought to say a few words on the question before them. When he looked at the meeting before him, which was attended by scores when it ought to be attended by thousands he could not help feeling that the inhabitants were not doing their duty. Of course he did not blame those who performed their duty by attending; but those who kept away. He confessed that the condition of England generally presented a very sorry spectacle at that moment. It was not to be expected, when the people exhibited so much apathy, that the Go vernment would come forward and do for them what they seemed so little to care about themselves. (Hear, hear.) He was sure, if they showed them selves anxious for reform, that the Government would be obliged to give it to them. (Hear, hear.) He hoped and believed that, if this district obtained its enfranchisement, it would prove a model con stituency, and return members who would be an honour to the borough and to the country. (Hear, hear.) The resolution was carried unanimously. Mr. FREEMAN proposed the next resolution, which was that a committee be appointed to carry out the object of the meeting. He believed that there was no borough in the kingdom which had an equal title to two out of the four representatives which were in abeyance. (Hear.) Mr. BLORE said he was not accustomed to see such large meetings in the district as the one before him, and he took that to be a sign of the interest that was felt in the subject. He was rejoiced to say that they had now a prospect of seeing their wishes accomplished. (Hear, hear.) Mr. MCCULLAGH said it had been remarked that the masses of the people in the parish were not present in the room. The population of the district was about 120,000 or 130,000, and it would be very difficult for that room to hold them. But he be lieved the intelligence and the respectability of the parish were very fairly represented there, and that fact would weigh considerably with Parliament and the Government when they_ came to consider this question. (Hear, hear.) He believed that no town in England could compete with them in their claim for represehtation. What were the facts on which they relied ? Putting aside the 130,000 inhabi tants of the district altogether, he could make such a claim as regarded property as no honest man could refuse to acknowledge. He held in his hands a return which was made two years ago to the House of 'Commons. This return contained the amount of property and income rated under sche dule A in the 255 boroughs and cities of the United Kingdom. He had also the return of Mr. Laing, which contained the amount of property rated under the same schedule in Chelsea and Kensing ton. How many of these 255 boroughs were rated higher than Chelsea and Kensington ? Only 15. (Hear.) It followed as a consequence that 240 cities and towns sent members to Parliament which did not equal them in wealth. (Hear.) They were rated under schedule A to the amount of £693,000, and if to that they added, as he contended they had a right to add, the property rated under schedules B and C, they had, with a population of 130,000, a taxed property of £1,000,000. (Hear, hear.) There was nothing in England, Scotland, or Ireland, to be compared with that. (Hear, hear.) At the time of the Reform Bill, 22 towns were declared to be worthy of two seats each, and of these 22 but three had a population equal to that which they had ten years ago. There were only six towns that had crept up to the popula tion they had ten years ago. (Hear, hear.) In fact, whether the basis of representation was to be population; property, or intelligence, or all of these combined, they had an indisputable and uncle- THE GALE. The accounts from the provincial seaports show that the gale was most severely felt in nearly every part of Ireland. Belfast, Cork, Drogheda, and many other places, have all their disasters to tell. Unceasing efforts are still being made to recover the body of Captain Boyd; but as yet it has not been found. THE FOOD RIOTS AT LIMERICK. The Limerick correspondent of the Freeman says:-- • " There was no repetition of street riots after I forwarded my despatch yesterday evening. In consequence of the apprehensions which pre vailed of a general outbreak, the military were confined to barracks, and the police continued to patrol the streets up to a late hour. This morning additional parties of constabulary came in from out stations, a renewal of disturbances being appre hended, but nothing occurred, as the police kept vigilant watch after bread carts and provision shops. At the police-court this morning there was much excitement, a full bench of magistrates having as sembled to investigate the charges preferred against seven persons, who were arrested yesterday as ring leaders. Sub-Inspector Macleod prosecuted, and described the riot and tumult which prevailed, representing that he had himself been struck OR the head with a stone, and that one bread shop had been plundered. The justices expressed a firm resolve to preserve the peace and protect the peace able citizens from plunder or injury to their pro perty or persons. The principal ringleader, a shoemaker named M'Carthy, was sentenced to two months' imprisonment and hard labour, and the others to 14 days' imprisonment each. The Mayor left Limerick this afternoon for Dublin, for the purpose of waiting upon his Excellency the Lord- Lieutenant, with a view to provide employment for the labouring classes in this city." IMPORTANT CASE. MARRIAGE OF A WARD OF COURT. A proceeding calculated to cool the ardour of young gentlemen who fall in love without leave took place yesterday in the Court of Chancery. Some short time ago, the public were entertained by an account of a romantic marriage, celebrated in Scotland, in which a young lady and a young gentleman from Ireland, a minor, were repre sented to have fled from the fangs of a judicial monster in this country, who had strictly forbid den the young Romeo from becoming united to his Juliet. It was stated that they had availed them selves of the happy freedom of the Scotch law, and after qualifying themselves by residence in that highly favoured land for a certain number of days, were publicly joined together in the bonds of wed lock. The report was accompanied with warm congratulations of the young couple for their defi ance of the cruel Irish Chancellor, and with fine moral reflections upon the superiority of the short and easy Scotch method of getting married, in stead of being obliged to follow the clumsy and dilatory forms which prevail in Ireland. It appears, however, that the felicity of the newly-wedded pair has been already sadly interrupted. An attach ment was issued from the Court of Chancery, in obedience to which they were in a ttendance th in e court, accompanied by certain friends; and judge, untouched by their r ecital of their tale o f love, actually committed tw o of the abettors to the unromantic seclusion of the Four Courts Marshal sea, with—still more terrible penalty !—peremp tory injunctions that the young bridegroom, who was consigned to the custody of a stern " guardian of the person," should not be allowed to hold any communication with his bride. 3. 1.
