Although unwilling at the present moment, un necessarily to press any measure on the attention of Government, we rejoice that the affairs of Ireland must shortly receive at their hands the most serious consideration We feel no surprise that the Go vernment should shrink from the task. Ireland is an Augean stable—abuse pervades every institution —in every ramification, and the wretchedness end misery of her people is only exceeded by the moral degradation of the faction that has for ages insulted and oppressed them. Fortunately for the honour of the present Government very little of the odium arising from the present state of Ireland attaches to them—the infamy is divided among their predeces sors, who for ages sanctioned- and encouraged re. pine, violence, and misrule, till it ultimately ripened into a system by which the ruling faction surren dered part of the spell to the boroughmongers of England, to secure their support, and the borough mongers of England bartered that support to share the plunder of the Irish people. It has been a regular practice for ages to drown the cries of the Irish people against their oppressors, amid the din of military coercion, and by military means to en force the execution of the law in all its terrors, de spoiled of the milder attributes of mercy and justice. Every measure honestly brought forward to afford relief to the great body of the Irish people, the ruling faction, in possession of all the places of power and pro fi t, and secure in the support of mili tary force, have contrived to pollute with their venom, and deprive of the healing benefits they were expected to produce. The Union has existed upwards of thirty years, and what has been its fruits ? The present misery of Jreland answers the Autry. Emancipation has been more recently granted, he expected benefits from which the faction have hitherto in a great measure frustrated, and will spare no exertion, if possible, to destroy, and such has been, and will continue to be, the case with every minor measure intended to benefit the Irish people, while the present system is permitted to exist. Absenteeism, on the mischiefs of which much has been said, is both a cause and an effect of the wretched system. Men possessed of estates, ori ginally derived from confiscation, either will not remain to witness the misery, or encounter the dangers it occasions, but abandon the land, and seeking abodes in England, France, or Italy, keep up no connection with their tenants or estates, save through agents, who, if they obtain some fifty per cent. more than a fair rent to support the absentee landlord in luxury abroad, are permitted, by way of remuneration, to appropriate to themselves, under any pretexts, as touch of the remaining produce as they can. One of the readiest means that presented of effecting this object was the division of the tenants' holdings, and letting each parcel at an in c eased rent, till, by continued divisions, subletting and subdivisions, the land in some districts has been carved out into the smallest possible portions, and let at the highest possible rents that could he ob tained from the et:ger competition of a starving po pulation, which the system generated, till they no longer yield the wretched occupants sufficient to support the most miserable existence. To remedy or palliate these crying miseries an introduction of the Poor Laws into Ireland is now generally contemplated ; and much as we deprecate the abuses of the Poor Laws in England (arid great are their abuses), we do not know, as a means of effecting a speedy palliation of the existing evils, that a better course can be adopted. The Poor Laws, however, will visit with some degree of retri butive justice many who have contributed to the miseries of Ireland, who, to avert them, propose that cultivation should be carried into new districts, and recourse had to emigration ;—but the cultiva tion of new distrets on the old principle would end in extending the existing•evil, and emigration nn a scale to afford any great and permanent relief is im practicable. If, indeed, any considerable body of the population could be simultaneously removed, — the abuses of Government as simultaneously re medied, and the remaining population advanced at once in•moral dignity, the desired result might be obtained ; but without this, the void created would be speedily filled up by beings equally wretched while the drain of any limited and practicable scale of emigration would, under any circumstances (wit ness the drain on human life during a protracted war), afford little if any permanent relief, though it should not be discouraged. Whatever measures, howe ver , may be contem plated, or brought forward, none can afford an effec tual remedy for the miseries entailed on Ireland by a long continued system of misrule, unless accom panied by a total change in THE SPIRIT of her Go vernment and all her institutions—Church, Ma gistracy, Grand Juries, Police, Yeomanry, &c. The Government, instead of being a Government of a faction, and for a faction, must become a .Govern ment of, and for, the nation,—the faction that has so long oppressed and abused the great body of the Irish people must he repressed, and the people raised, till placed on the same level, and both a re compelled by circumstances to fuse together. There must be no distinction of party or sect,—fro favour itism,—the just rights of the Catholic must be up held and maintained with the same zeal (and no greater),as those of the Protestant,—the violence of' both bere pressed with equal energy,—and the boasted equality of political, rights no longer remain a fiction of law, as regards seven-eighths of the population. We have hardly • room for a word on the Irish Yeomanry—the Newtownharry affair is fresh in the recollection of our readers—seventeen persons were slaughtered on that unhappy occasion--=-the' officers deny having given any orders to fire—tint men, therefore, fired without order, and the Grand Juries have thrown out all the Mils of Indictment The facts will scarcely bear a comment. Th e y e ,. marry, the worst description of forc e in any other country, is worse and mole obnoxious in Ireland than any other s and if the ►whole were disbanded, it would do more to promote and irs,.te ti:c tranquil lity of Ireland thrill tripling their numb ►r ;, or doubling the regular military force the misgovern ment of Irellnd has rendered necessary to he kept there. Let Mr. STANLEY inform himscli. In the course of the discussion on the itlurm Bill on Saturday in the. House of Commons, the CHANCELLOR Of tho EXCHEQUER mentioned an im portant alteration in the 10/. franchise in towns, viz. that weekly tenants, if they have occupied their houses for twelve months antecedent to the time of registration, are to have a vote, and that tenants under copyholders are to be put on the same foot ing as tenants under leaseholders. These are very material improvements, as they will have the effects of still further extending the consti tuency, and are meant no doubt as a sort of set off to that most obnoxious portion of the Bill which regards divisions of counties. Nevertheless, Lord ALTHGRP will find that the country will soon speak its opinions pretty plainly on the sulject of this of fensive clause. We have but just - received (three o'clock) the Ilamburg, Reporter, and have merely time to refer our readers to its contents:— WARSAW, AUGUST I.—Several detachments of Rudiger's corps have crossed the Vistula, and have already been engaged in several skirmishes with our troops. In Kalisz disturbtinees broke out on the approach of the Russian troopo. Two Germans, Meat zel, a confectioner, and Itepham, a manufacturer, supported by some German workmen, tore down the Polish eagles and hoisted the Russian in their stead, attempting also to pro: cure the election of the new President. Colonel Myszkowski entered the town, and soon restored order. Mentzel is said to have been hanged, and Replian is to be brought to Warsaw.— General Dembinski continues to maintain himself in Lithuania, at the head of upwards of 10,000 men. The insurrection is by no means suppressed, and several corps of partisans carry on a harrassing system of warfare against the Russians. The Countess Plater and her aide-de-camp have arrived here. FRONTIERS Of' POLAND, Atli. 6. The Polish army, which had taken up a position between Kolo and Lowicz, was attacked at the first place on the !st inst. by the Russian troops with no inconsiderable loss. The Poles in conse quence found themselves coznpelled entirely to give up that posi tion, and to concentrate themselves between Jocharzew and War saw. It may therefore be expected that a decisive battle will take place near the town of Bionic, which is situated in these parts; the result of which is expected with the greatest anxiety.; since, if they should lose the battle, the Poles will have nothing left on this side of the Vistula but Warsaw, and there is nothing to hinder the Russian army from advancing towards that city, which is may three. (fifteen): miles from Bionic, especially as General Rudiger has already b egan to cross the Vistula at Pulawy with his corps. The head-quarters of Field-Marshal Paskewitsch, which were on the 28th at Kowal, and the next day at Gostinin, were, ac cording to the last accounts, removed on the 3d to Lowicz, where they now are. The Russian force on this side of the Vistula has lately received a considerable accession of force by the junction of the corps of General Genteuzwig, which was before at Lonna. and crossed the 'Vistula on the 28th ult. Some accounts state it at fourteen thousand, others at twenty thousand men, with sixty pieces of cannon. The passage over the Vistula at Lenge, is said to be accom panied by eight thousand men, with forty cannon. On the side of the Poles very great exertions have been made to collect as great a number of men as possible, and all the troops stationed about Kalish and Bonin have been obliged to repair in all haste to join the main army ; it is still uncertain, however, whether they will be able to join before a battle has taken place near Kolo, and whether they are not already cut off from the main body. At Kalish itself great consternation prevails, and the entrance of the Russian troops is expected. WARSAW, Atalusy I.—lt is said that the Austrians are marking out a camp for several thousand men near Podgorge, rend making preparations to erect a bridge over the Vistula on the frontiers of Silesia and the territory of Cracow. LEIPSI(', AUGUST 7.—Letters from Brody of July 27, say that the cholera has entirely ceased there; others from Jassy, of the 25th of July say, that the cholera had greatly abate for souse weeks past. Four thousand Christians and Jews had fallen victims to the disorder. Patrols of CossackS were seen the day before yesterday at now, a league from Sochaczew. Letters from Flock say, that the enemy's cavalry is in good condition, but not the infantry. HAMBURG, AUG. 12.—According to official accounts the cholera has broken out in the village of Sadtke, on the road from Nockel and Wirfitz. Twenty-one persons had been taken ill, of whom eight had died. HA MBURG„‘uo. 12.—BORSEN HALLE, FOUR o'CLocx. —The supply of Wheat continues limited. Bye heavy, owing to several sales by auction.

CITY, TWELVE O'CLOCK. We have no further arrivals this morning than the expresses from Brussels and Paris. The Ibrmer brings accounts of the das- Lordly conduct of the main army of the Belgians, which took to flight at the approach of the Dutch army, and left their King to seek his own safety with a few men. Had it not been for the timely arrival of the French in Brussels, the whole of Belgium would have been in the possession of the Dutch troops;.and pet haps their King a prisoner. The express from Paris has but one important feature. The great improvement in the French Bodes which come 38f. 20c., is caused by a supposition that a general peace will soon be established throughout Europe, and the present tranq u illi ty of France will be maintained, as (.7asimir Perier is expected to have a large majority in the Chamber of Deputies.

We have sects a letter from Rotterdam of Saturday Last, which states that General Chasse had made another sortie from the citadel on Friday, and cut the dykes in two places, which entirely inundated the country to the south of Antwerp. We should think the above to be only a report at Rotterdam, as-other letters are in town which do not mention the circumstance. There arc also psivate letters, stating that fighting was ex pected between the Dutch and French troops. It is very singular that the Duke,of Saxe Weimar should have told General Bernard that he had no orders from the King of Holland to cease hostilities; as there was sufficient time to have received the orders. A Brazilian loan is on the tapis, and several contractors are busy in bidding for it. Although the French Funds have considerably got up, it has not had much effect on our Funds. The rise of the French Funds is now attributed to the French Government having re ceived a favourable answer from the King of Prussia, who agrees to the late conference of the five great Powers, and will not march to the assistance of the Dutch.

PEARSON v. CARDON. The LORD CHANCELLOR, in givitig jodgment in this case, stated that the quegtion came before him Upon d 011 of inter_ pleader. A quantity of wool had been deposited with the pi a ih, tiff, a warehousentan In the City of London, by Bize, Itor,lenave, and Co., in .1 . 818. He was to hold toe woo l to the order of the bailbrs.

Mr. Cardoft etbeerpiently claimed the .wool, upon his alledged paramount title to !t: Which Bize,Bordenave, and Co, acknowledged; and the question was whether die gt , oti9 were to be considered as held for Mr. Car_ don or few Mr. De Tastet, and whether, upon both claiming them, the . plaintiff had not a right to inteiPltgad ?

THE MARKETS. ---('CRIB DAY.) CORN EXCHANGE. The arrivals of every description of English Grain last week were moderate, and of foreign Wheat and Oats it was good. The fresh supply of Corn this morning is small, The continua tion of fine weather is considered very f av Oniable to the Crops, and although there was a tolerably free demand for good Wheat at the early part of the morning, for which rather higher prices were obtained, yet the trade upon the whole is considered the same as last Monday. In Barley, Beans, and Pease , there is no variation. Oats find a slow sale at the terms of this day se'n night. In the Flour trade there is no alteration.

SIR,--I have just read in The Sun of this everting _•n ac count of the meeting of Irish Members at the house of Etat Grev, " from a torrfepcndent." lam convinced that the spirit of impartiality, which Co honourably distinguishes your Journal, will induce you to give ineetrlol to a few ob servations on that statement, from one, perhaps, Bette* ac quainted with all the circumstances of the case than your 44 Correspondent'' appeere to have been. The Irish Members who waittd t.'n Lord Grey represent the interests certainly, and possibly the patrif!ns of their countrymen. In the present instance, however, there wan nothing tc excite their passions, but much to cause just alarm for the interest of their onfortunate country. More than twenty independent hith Members were present at the interview with Lord Grey, acid areenteen signed a letttr to his Lordship, not vaunting the " itns portance of their services," but setting forth in firm, yet respectful, terms, that they had been disappointed in the hope of a better system of Government for Ireland, which they had been led to expect from the present Adtninistra tion ; and, in particular, deeply deploring the recent atm ing of a party yeomanry force, which had been at tended by such lamentable consequences. The memorial further stated, that in making this declaration, " the undersigned Men,bers conceived that they had only dis charged their duty to their constituents and w 1119 Lord ship ; and, that if they should be compelled hereafter, by a sense of what they owed to their country, and by the voice of public opinion in Ireland, to withdraw their sup port from the present Government, it would be with deep regret certainly, but from a firm conviction that the course at present pursued tended rapidly to alienate the affections of the Irish people, and to weaken the connection between the two countries.," The grievances - of which complaint was made can scarce he considered " imaginary" by any person acquainted with the st ite of Ireland. !Co disposition was intimated "by the high powers who attichrd their si : znatures to it, of transferring t!,eir precarious alleg:ance." Their allegiance to fixed principles is not transferable, like that of a mere selfish adherent to persons. The litter was placed in the hands of Lord Duncannon, to be submitted by his Lord ship to Earl Grey; and the honour of an audience was requested, in order to give the .persons who signed it an opportunity of explaining their opinions. Such, Sir, is the plain statement of the facts relative to this letter, which your " Correspondent" is pleased to de.. nominate the " Hibernian Protocol," for what reason I cannot guess, if it be not in accordance with that lofty de meanour which he attributes to the illustrious Premier, and to which, in the present case, it might have been as well not to have made any particular allusion.

Nor did M. Huourr appear less delighted— be rewarded his huge favourite with a pound of loaf. sugar, and expres.ed himself as pleased to find that Gm.- LOT bad not entirely weaned her affections from him. "AN AFFAIR OF HONOUR."-DEATII 07 Ma. BERKELEY BOND, AT BOULOGNE.—Thie fatal occurrence took place on Thursday, the 11th inst. Mr. BoNn met his adversary, a Belgian Officer, of the name of Essr, at four o'clock in the morning, in the neighbourhood of Capicure, about a mile divant from the town of Bou logne. He was shot in the groin, the ball pissing nearly through the body, and lodging near the back-bone, whence• it was cut out by a French surgeon, notwithstanding which Mr. B died in great agony at eleven o'clock on Thursday morning, seven hours after the meeting. The dispute, out of which this melancholy affair arose, origi nated in a debt at cards, which being claimed by Mr. Ease, was denied by Mr. BOND. The• " lie direct" was given by one of the parties, retorted by a blow from the other, and an offer of honourable satisfaction. Mr. ESSE having no friends at Boulogne, called upon a British naval officer to attend him. The parties first (on Wednesday evening) met at the Colonnade, on the heights, but were disturbed by the police. They then niet at the place already mentioned, and the man ner• of settling the duel is represented as remark stile. The parties were placed at 20 paces distance, and sticks were p'anted in the ground between the combatants, ten paces from each ether,-with liberty to the principals to advance upon each other, keeping within that limit. Mr. ESSE, pointing his pistol steadily at his adversary, from the moment of the signal, did advance till he reached the pre scribed limit, and then fired with fat 11 effect. Mr. BOND, as our informant believes, did not fire at all. As the wound was instantly pronounced mortal by Dr. ALLATT, an Eaglish physician called in on the occasion, the survivors instantly fled, the principal to England in an open boat, and the two seconds in a carriage and fur for the Belgian frontier. The deceased was a man well known in this country. fie had an attachment and a family of five children by the sister of an English actress, who ha lately figured in two elope meaty, and been the subject of a divorce bill in the House of Lords. Independently of this connection, it is alleged that Mr. BOND has left a whims• to deplore his untimell' end. The death-lred Beene, with his live children and their mother asseinbied to a erases the last agonies, was 14 a most distressing nature. And this is what in " Worshipful Society" is called " an affair of honour !" I.IIIMIDI :NAVAL INTELLIGENCE. I.'aluti the Portsnioptit H era'd of Sunday.) Poretaarouna, Act:. 14.—His Majesty's ship Eden, '26, Capt. NV. F. IT. Owen, arrived on Tuesday from South America, having sailed from Lima, on the Ilth of 'un ary, from Yalnaraiso on the 136 of January, front Coviinlea on the 2fith of February, from Rio Janeiro o-s flth of May, from Bahia on the 27th of May, from l'ernambittra on the Bth of June, sod from Porto Praga lon the sth of July. She bring' home shout 7 1 00,000 iiallara. including 125010 which had been recovers I from the wreck of his Majtaty's late kl6p Thetis (sunk at Cape Frio), by the exertiana of Crptiiin Dickenson and the ail:teen+ and crew of his Majesty's ship Lightning. W have later accounts from Rio, dated the Bth and 15th Jane, by the farmer we learn that the Finance Minister - lied proposer! to /impend the piyment of the interest on the loans. in Lonnie:, hut the proposition after a con siderable discussion in the Committee was rejected. The attempt had, however, pm:laced a considerable depression in Brazilian Stoik, which fell nearly six per cent. and the mere mention of 81104 a proposition, although it inet with no support, is represented as having seriously injured the credit of Brasil. Letters dated June the 15th confirm the account that General Paz has been taken prisoner and that De IL Madrid had assumed the Government of Cordova, in spite of the authorities which had been left there by Paz. These letters also state that the Chamber of Deputies had approved of the decision of the Finance Committee, and that the dividends were to be regularly and punctually paid. Every thing was tran quil at Rio, but the exchanges had fallen to 23 owing to the scarcity of produce and money. The following came home passengers by the Eden, invalided :—Lieut. R. Compton, of tine Alert ; Mr. George Heather, Maser of the Seringapatam, and nine seamen. The Eden was in spected on Thursday by the Commander-in-Chief, Admi ral Sir Thorrais Foley, and came into harbour, on Thurs day, to be paid off into Ordinary, having been four years and a hall in commission. The Doke of Portland's brig Pantaloon, and ketch Clowu, in company with Lord Vernon's brig Harlequin, sailed from Spithead on Tuesday morning for a short cruise, for the purpose of trying their reepeetive rates of sailing. Oa their return they carne in as follows :—Pantabein,Harie ' quin, and Clown, being about five minutes' difference be tween each yacht. At Spimead—Britannia, Rattlesnake. ililebour—Spartiate, Winchester, Royal George, Imo gene, Onyx, Eden, and Columbia, steamer. His Majesty's brig Onyx, 10 (tender to the Royal George), Lieut. Dawson, which arrived on Siturday with drepatches from Rio Janeiro, is ordered to be got ready fur sea with all practicable despatch. Vire-Admiral Sir Pulteney Malcolm, K.C.B. struck his flag on Saturday, on board his Majesty's ship Britannia, at Shithead, having been relieved in the command of the Mmliterrancan fleet by Vice-Admiral the Hon. Sir Henry liotham, His M ijestra gun-brig Recruit, 10, Lieut. T. llodges, went out of harbour on Monday, was paid advanced wages on Thun‘day, and sailed on the following day to join the fleet to:trtnbled in the Downs. His Majesty's chip Rattle,nakr, 28, Captain Charles Graham, is now ready for sea, and went out of harbour yesterday. His Majesty's ship Britannia, 120, Captain Johnstone, . . is ordered to he completed to the full war establishment.— She is quite te , aly for sea, awl only waits the payment of wages to her creW, which is expected to take place on Tuesday. 11;s Majesty's ship Victor, 18, Commander Mice: and Tvieed, 20, Commander Bertrani (which sailed on the tirh inst. to try their relative qualities, in company with the Duke of Potriami's yachts Pantaloon and Clown) re ' turned to Spithead on Monday, the trial being much io favour of the Victor, which in a moderate breeze went at the rate of nine miles an hour close hauled, and stretched four miles to windward, on the first day, of the other ves sels. The Clown, though a remarkably fast vesttel, did not outsail the Victor, and the Pantaloon proved herself a very weatherly veasel, going to windward at the rate of a mile an hour. On Wednesday last, First Lieut. W. Jolliffe, and Second Lieut. J. 11. March, of the Royal Marines, with a de tachment of the same corps, embarked on board his Ma jesty's ship Britannia, to relieve Second Lieutenants T. P. Dwyer and P. B. Nolloth, with the detachment of Royal Marine Artillery, which has been serving in that ship. The following Midshipmen passed their examination, at the Royal Naval College, on Monday last, viz.— Messrs. Edward Roche Power, George Keith Ogilvy, Henry W. Johnstone, and Edward Tatham, of his Ma jesty's ship Britannia; Mr. T. Maxwell Falcon, his Ma jesty's skip Briton ; Mr. George E. \Valford, late of his Majesty's ship Thetis : Mr. Charles M‘Donnell, of his Majesty's ship Galatea ; Mr. Arthur Sansom, of his Ma jesty's ship Winchester ; Mr. James W. Drake, of his Majesty's ship Victor; Mr. W. H. Marben, of his Ma jesty's steamer Messenger, having previously passed in seamanship on board his Majesty's ship Regent. The Dreadnought is fitting, off Greenwich, for a hoe pital ship, in lieu of the Grampus, which has served in that capacity for many years. The former, we understand strove very hard to verity her name in litany battles, but she could never manage to get the foremost of the van, being such a bad sailer. We can scarce!y conceive a greater mortification to a British tar, than to have his ar dour repressed or neutralized by the bad qualities of his ship. To remedy the recurrence of siinil rr contingencies, every facility and encouragement should be held out to those who project improvements in our Navy, which cer tainly, in ninny important respects, requires remode!line. The squadron under the command of Vice-Admiral Sir Edward Codrington, passed by the Ise of Wight on Monday afternoon, and anchored in the Downs the fol lowing day.
