CoLossEum.—An entire change has been made in the scenery of the Swiss Cottage, the view of Mont Blanc has been removed, and an interesting picture of the Tete Noir Pass and Valley of Trient has just been painted by Messrs. Danson and Son, showing the cas cade, villages, &c , of that celebrated spot. A re-engage ment has been entered into with the Collins family, and their musical performances combine with the other fea tures of this exhibition in rendering it a most attractive place of amusement. The Cyclorama , with a movin g Panorama of Lisbon and representation of the Earth quake in 1755, is still exhiLited. TUE WELSH CHARITY SCHOOL.—Yesterday being the anniversary of St. David's-day, the annual festival, held in support of the funds by which this institution is sustained, t'iok place at the Freemasons' Tsverr, Great Queen-street. The chair was filled by the Earl of Powis, supported by the Bishop of St. Asap'', Sir Thos. Phillips, and upwards of 150 gectlemen cont:ected with the principality. The musical arrangements were en. trusted to Mr. Genge, Mr. F. Smith, and a larg: choir of vocalists. Mr. C. Roberts, I.arpist to the Prince of Wales, was also present, and Mr. Sims Reeves in tae course of the evening delighted the company with his exertions. The company having partaker. of an excel lent dinner, provided by Mr. Bacon, the usual patriotic and nati((nal toasts were given fr,,in the chair, and rt.- sponded to by the company. The boys and gi rls f the school were introduced, and had ev.-ry app, tv•ance ( f liberality of treatment and the enjoyment of health. A large amount of subscriptions was annouin el by the secretary, soon alter which the chairman retired. Thu festivities were kept up till a late hour. COUNTY COURTS EXTENSION,-4H the Bill to ex tend the jtieisdiction of the County Courts, yesterday printed, there is a clause giving either party a right i,f appeal to a superior court in actions above 20/. Thera aro fourteen provisions in the Bill and a scale of fees in actions above 201. At length Lord Valteline signified his intention of addressing them, and a temporary silence was ob tained. He had very little to say, and was anxious, for a variety of reasons, to get over the ground as quickly , as he could. He told them that the unexpected appear ance of a new candidate—(" Where is he ?" groaned the crowd)—had altered the state of the case; that proud as he would have been to have devoted himself to their service in Parliament, he was advised that a division in the Conservative camp might give a majority to that revolutionary party which, on this occasion was represented, or he should say, not represented by an un known individual, who was afraid to show himself to the electors—(an observation which was succeeded by a tumultuous uproar of " Bravos !" and "Go it, Valteline !")—and that, under the circumstances— under the peculiar circumstances, he repeated, circum stances which—(the rest of the sentence was drowned in shouts and catcalls, to the infinite vexation of Mr. Washington Trumbull, who was particularly anxi ous to know what the circumstances were) ; he, therefore called upon them to follow his example, and to give their undivided support to Mr. Rawlings, rather than let the enemy steal a march on them— (" Hurrah !" " Rawlings fur ever ! ")—he had no personal animosity to that gentleman—he only hoped he would stick to his principles—and, for his own part, he could only say that he would take another op portunity—(here he was cut short again by the mis cellaneous and somewhat contradictory cries of the multitude, who by this time were getting rather mys tified) ; " therefore," he added, " immolating personal ambition on the altar of public principle, I retire from the contest, and shall cheerfully give the whole of my influence to that candidate, be he who or what he may, who pledges himself to nail his colours to the mast !" This last sentence was appallingly triumphant: it ran like an electric shock through the mass of up turned faces; and when a show of hands was called for, a forest of brawny fingers sprang into the air for Rawlings—" The Ladder of Gold," in Bentley's Miscollany for March. NATIONAL CEMETERIES. The following is a copy of a petition recently pre sented to the lluube of Commons by Mr. Mackin non, M.P. "To the Honourable the Commons of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland in Parliament assembled, The Bumble Petition of the President and Members of the National Society for the ALolition of Burial in Towns, `• Sheweth, that it was clearly demonstrated before a Committee of your Honourable House in the year 1840, and, more fully before the Special Committee appointed to inquire into ' The Effect of Interment of Bodies' in 1842, that the burial of the dead in the midst of the living is a practice fraught with the most disastrous consequences. That your petitioners would remind your lionourable House, that during the prevalence of epidemic cholera, in the metropolis, the remains of be tween 2,000 and 3,000 persons who had perished from pestilence, were deposited, weekly, in places long since ine ipable of giving decent, much less sanitary burial, to a single body. That it has long been a matter of com mon and scandalous notoriety, that the bodies of the dead are disposed of so as to produce incalculable injury to the public health, and the public morals. Tnat during the prevalence of a pestilential disease, which your petitioners believe was, in many instances, clearly traceable to the practice which they call upon your lionourable House to arrest, the bodies of the dead were deposited in streets and thoroughfares under aad around churches, chapels, and human habitations—in the very midst of two millions of the inhabitants of the metropolis. That, utterly regardless of repeated warnings and predicted consequences, the bodies of the dead have been, and continue to be, placed one upon another and side by side, in deep pits ; whilst thousands of others have been, and continue to be, de posited, in shallow graves, with an utterly un protective covering, of a few inches of soil (chi( fly compounds of human remains), over each cofan. That your petitioners beg to remind your Ho nourable House, that the practice of intramural burial, in itself so injurious and demoralizing, is rendered incal culably more injurious and destructive by the systema tic employment of means for the purpose of providing space for new comers. That the mischiefs thus inflicted upon the living are incalculably increased by the mutila tion and disturbance of bodies previously interred, and also by the incessant turning up of human remains, in every stage of decomposition. That your petioners have abundant evidence to prove, that in London, Bristol, Waterford, and other places, some of the most virulent and fatal cases e f recent cholera, were developed in the immediate neighbourhood of burial places. That your petitioners respectfully suggest that, although the mis t Aces of eeaturies, as to the insanitary construction of the habitations of the living, and the sewerage of cities and towns, can be rectified only by necessarily slow de grees, and at an enormous pecuniary outlay—the imme diate arrest:taws Of the practice of intramural burial—a practice which admits of neither palliation nor excuse, is as easy as it is urgent arid imperative. " That for the above and other cogent reasons your petitioners ri spectfully call upon your Honourable H ou se to interpose your authority, —to accord a power, tee step in between the living and the dead,—and to pass, forthwith, a general Act tor the formation r f national cemeteries, far removed from human dwellings. And )our petitioners will ever pray, &c., " GEO. ALFRED WALKER, Surgeon, President." 17, New Bridge-street, Blackfriars, Feb. 11, 1850.

The nineteenth annual meeting of the members of this valuable institution was held this afternoon, in the new, spacious, and elegant lecture-room, which has lately rean added to the establishment, and which was opened for the first time to-day. Admiral Lord Radstock presided, and there were pre sent a very large number t f members. The CHAIRMAN congratulated the members on their first assembling in the new lecture theatre, which, he had no doubt, would be used for the most important and beneficial purposes, and tend to promote the prosp:rity of the inst"tetion. Instead f having, as beret .fore, simply, a collection of curious and interesting objet is for tt.eir instruction and amuse mutt, they would now he able to have lectures on subj, cts with r. f.renee to whip I they might I e most deiirons to obtain in f brmation. The SECRETARY t' en read the report for the last y:•; r, nano which it appeared that there had hien a in.- crea,e. in the nuenter of nni ushers as compared with th. form, r par. TI c original estimate for the erection the lecture theatre ha , l been exceeded by 1.2001, whicin would make the whole cost amount to 1,500 e Ihe interior fittings were in a very forward state, tied it was expected that the theatre would be wholly finished and reudy for use at the end of the present month. The cost of the additions, unless the building fund wise made sufficient to cover it, would cause a diminution in the income of ;he institution, because a poi ton of its fundel stock would have to be sold. The managers appe to the members to make this fund adequate to the liqui dation of the expenses; and also, by getting en accession of members, to restore the institution to the position which it held a few years ago. The number of members up to the date of the report amounted to 3,9881. The total receipts for the year were 2,750/. Be. Bd., and the expenses 2,6521. .ss. 9c1., being a balance of 98/.25. 11d. The funded pro perty now consisted of 1,050/. in the Three-and-a-Qesr ter per Cents., 4671. 10s. 3d. of Consols, belongin g t o th e Building Fund, and 6501 of Threeeand-a-Quarter per Cents. baying been sold. Unless the building fund was considerably increased, it would be necessary to sell more stock to complete the payment to the architect, and to provide the necessary fittings for the lecture-room. Among the presents furnished by the liberality of the friends of the institution, the council begged to notice the valuable set of tke illustrated works presented by the trustees of the British Museum; a very large and fine pair of sperm whale's jaws, by Lieutenant Breton, R.N.; a model of the bridge at Alcantare, by Aug. Lane Fox, Esq.; a model of a line-of-battle ship, with an improved battery, by Lieutenant Halahan, R.N.; and a cabinet c f specimens of natural history, by Captain P. P. King, R.N. Mr. Walter Hawkins, who last year presented to the institution a model of a triumphal column, proposed to commemorate the defeat of the French invasion of Russia, had rendered his donation more complete, by placing it on a handsome and suitable pedestal. On tke subject of the Waterloo model the council regretted that they had no informa tion to communicate to the meeting. The affairs of the late Captain Siborne being yet unsettled, no negotiation on the subject of the model had as yet been resumed with the council. The subscription made by the mem bers of the United Service Institution of 102/. for its purchase remained in the hands of Messrs. Cox. The council thought it highly important that lectures on pro fessional subjects should be delivered during the press nt season, and they were in communication with Major Adams, Professor of Fortification in the Royal Military College, and other eminent individual?, on the subject of giving such lectures. When the necessary arrange ments were made, due notice of them would be given to the members. Colonel GAWLER, in proposing the adoption of the report, said, although the funds were not in a flourish ing state, they were still very much indebted to the ma nagers, who, greatly to their credit, had kept the insti tution alive during a Feriod of great political and mone tary difficulties', which had induced many men even of good incomes to retrench their expenses. He locked upon the institution with the very greatest interest, fur it not only promoted a knowledge cf those subjects and sciences which were most interesting to them, but it would tend to cement the two great services of the country —the army and navy—in one common bond of union .—(Hear.) The motion was seconded, and carried unanimously. Lieutenant RAPER proposed, with the view of increas ing the income, the following alteration in the rules of the institution:—" That the annual subscription be not less than ten shillings, and the life subscription not less than six pounds, leaving it to the option of members to contribute a larger sum if they thought necessary." The resolution was seconded by Lieutenant-Colonel HAMILTON and carried. On the motion of Colonel P. S. STANHOPE, 6 econded by Captain Sir W. F. NICHOLSON, it was resolved— " That gentlemen above the age of fifteen years whose names were on the list of the Commander-in-Chief for commissions should, until they Gb!ained appointments, be admissible to the institution on the payment of the annual subscription." The counsel for the ensuing year having been elected, a vote of :tharls was pas s el to the Noble Lord for his conduct in the chair, and the meeting separated. THE ARMY AND NAVY. (Frow the United Service Gazette of this day.) AFFAIRS OF GREECE.—We have good grounds for believing that,the difference Letw•een England and Grace will to most speedily settled, and that the fleet will re turn to Melts; . in tact, our private letters from the Piraeus inform us that one of the line-or-battle ships, the Ganges, 84, Captain Smith, C. 13., is alresdy ordered to proceed to Malta. At thn Daren Mirns, in the e astern part of the sett, a valuab'e course of rich silver .le td ore has been; di.- covered, from %bent e f.ur to n are expt cted to break betw•ten .001. and 6001. during the present month. In :.dit Co( d level it is estimated that 10,0001. worth ( f ore Las been discovered :teuding. The western ground is also very productive. At the Wheal Calstock meeting, it having been re solved that Captain S. Scecumbe be solicited to inspect the mine, he haa dune so, and forwarded his re port, in which he states that in the deep adit driven 65 fms., for the last 30 fms. the lode has a kindly appearance, more especially at and near the end, varying in size from 2 to 4 ft., containing capel, quartz, salt prian, and black copper ore. The indications are sufficient to justify the driving the end, as it will deve lope the general character of the lode; and he considers the ground between this end and the eastern boundary to be the most valuable portion of the sett. A great many tons of ore had been broken from the north lode, in the 12th fm. level, by old workers. Captain See combo recommends proceeding with the operations, and believes the prospects sufficient to justify the outlay. ROYAL MARlNEs.—Volunteers will be selected from the Woolwich and Portsmouth divisions, to proceed with the Arctic expedition, under the command of Captain Austin, R.N. FNROLLED PENSIONERS.—The Secretary -at-War has ordered another company to be formed for service at Fort Garry, in the Hudson Bay territory; the men will t mbai kin Juno next. Captain Henderson, of the Royal Engineers, and 54 men, embarked at Tilbury Fort on beard the ship Scindian, on the 20th of February, for South Western Australia. MEDALS.—We are assured that the proposition for charging the men with the expense of engraving the medals awarded for meritorious service, did not emanate from the Secretary -at-War. REGIMENTAL SCHOOLS.—Building• are to be erected by order of the Secretary -at-War at the several barracks for school-rooms for the use of soldiers. ARMY AMUSEMENTS.—The Board of Ordnance have been directed t.) construct a fives-court at the Cavalry Barracks, Glasgow, for the use of the officers and men, and one for the pupils at the Ordnance School at Car shalton. LECTURES TO PORTSMOUTH GARRISON.—In his anxiety to advance the cause of general knowledge, and especially of military education, Lord Frederick Fitz- Clarence has, a e hear, engaged the services ( f Lieut.- Colonel Torrens and Major Lysons, of the 23d Fusiliers; Certain James, of the Royal Engineers; and Mr. Stocqueler, the author of the " hand-Book cf British India;" to deliver lectures during the present month upon subjects c f military interest. A ball-practice range has been ordered to be con structed at Upnor Barracks, on the river Medway. BARRACKS. —The new barracks now being erected at Sheffield, and capable of accommodating 37 officers and 910 mon, will not be ready for occupation until the year 1852. KILKENNY DISTRICT. Major-General M'Donald, C. 8., has proceeded to Dublin, and the command of the district, during his absence, has devolved upon Colonel Sir Charles O'Donnell, the Assistant-Adjutant-General. The Fort Adjutancy cf Penetanguishene has been filled up by the appointment of Mr. Michael Dowd. The Fort Adjutancy of the Bahamas is vacant. Brevet Major Napier, 25th Foot, has ceased to be an Aide-de-Camp to Sir Chai lei Napier. Lieutenant Colonel Lovell, C. 8., 15th Hussars (who held the local rank of Major-General in India), has a-- rived i❑ England in the Indus steamer. Colonel Ga:- den, late Quartermaster-General of the Bengal Army, has likewise arrived. Shares in the following mines have changed hands since our last :—Devon Great Consols, South Basset, South France:, Wheal Margaret, Cam Brae, Condur row, Gustavus, Treleigh Console, Heingston Down, East Gunnis, Lake Junction, Camborae Consols, Kingsett and Bedford, Pendarves, Bedford Unitep, East and South Tamar, Trehane, Trelawny, Mary Ann, Stray Park, Wheal Henny, Penzance Consols, Cwm Earn, Esgair Dee, Wheal Henry, Hennock. In Foreign Mines there has been a fair proporiion of business done; in United Mexican, and at au advanced price; National and Imperial Brazilian, St. John del Rey, Copiapo, Guadalcanal, and Linares, have also changed hands. Major Henry Jervis, 72d Highlanders, it is reported, will succeed Colonel Weare, K.H., as Commandant of the Provisional Battalion at Chatham. The new battery, ordered last ycat to be built in the Dockyard at Sheerness, but which was not even begun, is to be erected during the next year, under the superin tendence of an officer of the Royal-Engineers. MINING INTELLIGENCE. (From the Mining Journal of this day.) There has not been so large an amount of business termaeted during the present week as we have had for some time past. Notwithstanding which, however, in quiries continue to be made for shares in our leading mines, and the market generally remains as firm as to prices as during the previous week, in which a much larger number changed hands. Devon Great Consols are still in request, and some shares have changed hands during the week. There have been inquiries for Wheal Henry, Condur row, Carn Brea, &c. At the Wheal Margaret bi-monthly account, a divi dend of 8964 was declared, being 8/. per share; leaving balance in band of 1021.111. 2d. Balleswidden account, for Nov. and Dec. was held on the 27th, when a dividend of 12s. 6d. per share was de clared, carrying to credit of next account 94/. 12s. sd. The agent's report was highly satisfactory, and the same amount of dividend may be expected in the next account. At Wheal Spearne Consols, a dividend of :3cl. per share was declared, leaving balance of 250/. 12s. sd. in hand. , The agent's report stated that in the 126 fim. level there is a good branch of tin both cast and west. The 116 fm. level east is also very good; and the 60 fir. level east is in good tribute ground. In the 40 there is a most excellent course of tin ; the pitches are all look ing well. At the East Godolphin Mines' account for the thrce months ending Dec., a balance of 3551 12s. I Id. wcs shown against the mines, and a call of 2/. 10s. per shale was made. The manager's report represents the prc spects as encouraging. At the adjourned meeting cf East Wheal George, a call of 5121. (being 11. per share) was made. The prc spects of the mine are represented as assuming the most encouraging appearance, and the surface operations are progressing in a very satisfactory manner. At the Wheal Anderton meeting a call was made of 1/. per share. At the Boswednan meeting, held at the Union Hotel, Penzance, the accounts fir the two months ending De cember were examined and passed, showing balance in favour of adventurers, of 55/. At the Wheal Bal meeting, held at the mine, the ac counts for the three months ending December, were pru duccd, from which it aware(' there was a balance con- GREECE. The following dispatch from M. Londos, Greek Minister for Foreign Affairs, has been addressed to M. Thouvenel, Minister of rance at Athens. It is dated Athens, Feb. 9, 1850 : "Sir,—l have only now been apprised of a publication which bears no printer's name, and of which I know not the real origin. I only know that it has been commu nicLted to all the accredited missions at Athens. It is entitled A document Emanating from the British Legation, and not contained in the collection of papers published by the Greek Minister for Foreign Affairs.' I have particularly remarked, Sir, the following paragraph of a dispatch addressed to you by the Minister of her Britannic Majesty on the 31st of January (new style):—' The undersigned has, more over, seen with the greatest surprise that in an expose published in the same collection, the Greek Government has ,comprised (with what ob ject the undersigned cannot well conjecture) the ques tion fgeign t. that demand of the occupation by the Greek Government of the islands of Cervi and Sapi enza.' (Anonymous publication, page 26.) It is my duty to remove any doubt which may exist in your mind as well as in that of the Government of the French Re public, on the subject of a reclamation which Mr. Wyse did not address to me personally, but to which I now hasten to reply. Tim text f the note addressed by Sir Edward Lyons to M. Colocotroni, dated the 6th Decem ber, 1848, and to which Mr. Wyse has frequently made allusion, contains a portion of a phrase which is not repeated in the anonymous publication of which I have the honour to speak to you. The following is the portion omitted—' and stating with re ' gard to these demands as well as to the others which had not been satisfied.' Aftsr recapitulating in this dispatch all the grievances which have given rise to the demonstration of which Gteeeo is still the object . , those words must probably apply to the loan and to the do mund of the islands of Cervi and Sapienza. In his note of the 2d of July, 1849, the Minister of her Britannic Ma jesty having repeated the same grievances, adds—' No other reply has bean given to the note so frequently quoted in the letter of Sir Edward Lyons, dated the 6th of December, 1818, in which he recapitu lated those claims as well us others more impor tant.' (Anonymous publication, page 12.) What could ti.che more important claims 13! if not the question rela tive to the loan and to the islands of Cervi and Sapienz ? ; It i 4, as you know, Sir, to thes e two nutee, one of the 6th Decemb,r, 1848, and the of cr cf the 2d July, 1849, that Mr. Wyse rarticu'a-1y referred at the conference at which, in accord with Admiral Parker, he submitted to the Government of the King the u'tim , stum cf which you know the consequences, taking care by a separate note to reserve the question of the loan. Did not this exception on a single point allow' all the preceding demands to subsist? I nevertheless yr tartaim d some doubts of this in my own mind, and which I made to appear when se) - ing to the Chamber of Deputies on the 6.18 th January. The sixth and last dem4nd refers to a concession of a portion of the Greek territory. It is true that the Minister of Great Britain dues not make any cate gorical demand on this subject in the note which he submitted to the Government. He mentions it indirectly when referring to the previous note of his predecessor, the Hon. Sir Edward Lyons, dated the 6th of December, 1848. However that may be, Sir without pretending that this last question was, according to the opinion •of Mr. Wyse and of Admiral Parker, to be, whether just or unjust, resolved within 24 hours like all the others, I maintain it is the right of the Greek Government, under existing circumstances, to enlighten the nation as w e ll as public opinion as to all the demands not yet settled which had been presented by the British Legation at the moment when the differences arose. Now, Mr. Wyse cannot deny that the islands of Cervi and Sapienza were claimed several timer, and that no reply approving of the claim was made to the note of M. Glariki, dated 17th November last, relating to this subject. Conse quently, such a claim exists, and it is my duty to refer to it in order that none of the affairs to be discussed be tween the King's Government and that of her Britannic Majesty should be unknown to anybody. It would be easy for me, Sir, to replylto other passages in Mr.Wyse's last note to prove that the Government of his Majesty has furnished a reply to each of the demands of the Bri tish Legation at the period when they were made. Tho Government of her Britannic Majesty has always confined itself to remarking that itcould not take the obj ections of the Greek Government into serious consideration, and that it required full and complete satisfaction. For reasons which everybody will appreciate, silence wat in some measure impsed on my predecessors. As to the note of the 6th December, 1848, you know, Sir, the state of health of M. Colocotroni when he received it. (He died within three weeks.) In the trouble which this event caused, and in consequence of the numerous changes which occurred in some months in the offices of his successors, it may be admitted that the last com munication of Sir Edward Lyons —to which, more over, as I have had the honour to tell you, preceding officers of the Minister for Foreign Affairs had re plied in advance, but their replies had not been taken into consideration—it is admitted, I repeat, that they may have been lost sight of. As to the dispatches ad dressed by Mr. Wyse to M. Glariki, dated the 19th of June and the 2d of July, 1849, they so completely at tracted the attention of my predecessor that, preferring acts to useless words which might produce irritation, he arranged the affair relative to Mr. Finlay, although it is again found repeated in the ultimatum imposed on the King's Government. As to the last note of which Mr. Wyse speaks—that is to say the note which I myself received on the 26th December last, a few days after I entered on office I leave you to judge, Sir, whether my silence during 15 days, in the midst of numerous occupations, can be considered as a refusal to examine and to settle conformably to justice., to law, and to the rest ect due t 3 a friendly Government, all the claims of the British Legation. I request you will be so good as to communicate this dispatch to the Govern ment of the French Republic, in order that in this ever to-be-regretted conflict it may know that I hs,ve not deviated one instant from the line traced out for me by my duties as a Minister, and my good faith as an honest man. Accept, Sir, the assurance of my high considera tion, &c., (Signed) " A. LONDOS." IMPERIAL PARLIAMENT. HOUSE OF LORDS, March 1. TENANT RIGHT. The Marquis of LONDONDERRY presented a peti tion from the tenant-farmers of the counties of Down and Londonderry, in public meeting assembled at Cole raine, praying their Lordships to puss a statute ensuring tenant-right to the occupiers of land. Tenant-right w tas sr boon given by th e l an dl or d to the tenant centuries ago. tie took up this as apubhe question. G re at excitement existed in Ulster on the subject of tenant-right, and great bitter ness sinned, e f t o lad r n t s d e l tallio a a d ut s e yex l a chia s l t de e)bn'eetca:h had du co to e xcite the far- Lucas against the rate in aid, by the unfortunate affair of Dolly's Brac, and by the mee tings which had been called during the last autumn and winter by the Protectionist leaders, who had made most exciting speeches; and the most remarkable circumstance was that the very persons who had b. en then called together by the Protectionist landlords had united to call for a large re duction of rent from the landlords, and for tenant-right, and not only for that, but fur a perpetuity of tenancy ; in fact, they claimed the land as their own and threat ened all those farmers who dared to take land from which others had been ejected. In other instances they had actually determined not to pay rent—had, in fact, con fiscated their landlord's property.—(llear, hear.) In such a case as this something should be done ; he did not call upon the Lord-Lieutenant to roclaim the county, but really _something must be (done to arrest these gentlemen in their progress, and to prevent the preaching of these doctrines. He had been called upon by a Presbyterian minister to substantiate what he had stated with regard to the non-payment of rent, which he alleged that those ministers had seated: He had received a letter, written by command of the I - Lv. W. Dobbin, calling on him to retract or sub stantiate those assertions. (The Noble Marquis theta read the letter, challenging him to prove . his. assertions, and ch arg i ng hi m w i t h calumn i a ting those w h o were equally regardless of h i s • smiles and hi s f rowns, and treated him with unmitigated scorn, and dared him to to try the question of privilege with them.) He had also received a letter from a most respectable landlord of the county of Down, who ex pressed his satisfaction that he (the Noble Marquis) had drawn the attention of t h e H ouse to the calumnies of the Presbyterian ministers, and to the reign of terror chicle tLey were seeking to establish, making the county of Down a' second Tipperary. He ho that the Government would discover some mode. of expressing their disappr o b at i on of the proceedings of the: , Pr, shy krian intuistetr. Attempts at murder had h et. made in the county of Down, and he hoped that the G rent ent would otter large regards for the discovery of the ix rpetrt.t.rs of the be outrages. Of ona thing he v. at c e• tain, that the landlords would not be intimidated. but ti.w they would resist with firmness these exciters to teu.tler and incendiarism. Lord BROUGHAM. had the other day expressed his sir lig reprobation of a letter written by a reverend runtle man to h 6 Noble Friend, but that letter was n o . th.r.g to the letter which had then re.ed. Any comps. mcre remarkable fir mere vulgar abuse, more unw( rthy of a gentleman, more unworthy of an educated man, more utterly unworthy of a minister cf the Gospel, hi had never heard. If those persons thought that threats would make any Noble Lord swerve from the performance of what ho considered his duty, they would find them telves bitterly deceived, for whatever faults might be !aid to the account of their Lordships, that of yielding to vulgar intimidation was the last thing of which they could be accused. The Earl of DEVON was opposed to legalising what was commonly called tenant-right The Earl of RODEN agreed with the Noble Earl who had last spoken ; but he maintained, that all good landlords made their outgoing tenants ample compensation. He denied that the county of Down was in the disturbed state represented by the Noble Marquis. He considered the letter read by the Noble Marquis to be a most insolent and most vulgar tirade, and as such to be utterly reprobated. Reference had been made to the violence of the Pzesb)terian clergy, but among every body of men so large as the Presbyterian clergy violent persons would be found, and it was unfair to make the body answerable for the faults of individuals. As a body there was not • more respectable or worthy body of seen to be found than the Presbyterian clergy of the north of Ireland. He regretted that the attention of Parlia ment had been drawn to the subject, as he thought it could not but produce disastrous effects. Lord BROUGHAM explained that he had not meant, in what he had said, to bring any charge against the Presbyterian clergy at large. Never had he seen so little of the insolent spirit exhibited in that letter in any body of men as in the Presbyterian clergy, and he hoped they would repudiate the writer of that letter. The Marquis of LONDONDERRY had never in. tended by anything he had said to impugn the conduct of the Presbyterian clergy at large. He defied the Noble Earl to prove that the county of Down was not now in a state of great excitement, occasioned by the meetings recently held there. The Earl of MOUNTCASHEL was sure that the great majority of the Presbyterian clergy would repu diate the language that had been used by the clerical agitators at tenant-right meet ings, and as to writers of letters, such as those read by the Noble Marquis, they should be brought to the bar of the House, and severely punished. As to teni:nt•right, the word had been invented by Mr. Sher man Craw ford, and he (the Earl of Mountcashel) did not understand tl e meaning of it. The landlords in the north c f Iraland had always been most kind to their tenants, but that did not constitute a right on the part of the tenants to the allowance which had been made to them by the kindness of their landlords. He trusted their Lordships would never pass any measure for legalising tenant-right. The petition was then ordered to lie on the table, and their Lordships adjourned. HOUSE OF COMMONS, March 1. PARLIAMENTARY VOTERS (IRELAND) BILL. The House then went into Committee on this Bill. On clause 1 being proposed, Mr. HAMILTON observed that if it were necessary to extend the franchise, it ought not to be done at the expense of the franchise that existed already. The franchises that now prevailed in Ireland ought to be preserved, end he should therefore move that after the word " that " in line 11 the following words be inserted: "in addition to those qualified by law to register and vote at any election of a Knight of the Shire in Ireland in virtue of any qualification not requiring occupation." On the amendment being put, Mr. BRIGHT said he should be glad to know whit question they wet e now to decide. Would the Attorney (it nerol fur Ireland be so good as to explain it. Mr. HATCHELL said, the Bill in point of fact did not titlect the franchise that existed already, but, in order that there should be no ambiguity about the matter, Go vLrntnent had no objection to insert these additiocal word F. Afier a few observations from Mr. Rossencx and Sir W. Ftf3IERVILLE, Sir F. THESIGER wished to know from the Go venire, nt %healer the Bill did not propose t 3 sweep away a:1 the existing franchises for the purpose of en tire!y reconstructing the representative system in Ire land because, most unquestionably that was the way in which he read the Bill.—(Hear.) Most undoubtedly comb psi-lies already registered would have under some clauses of the Bill a prima facie right to be registered again, but not according to the qualification which they posses: el at present, but to a new qualification established under the Bill. It was important to understand at the Outset that the Committee would have to eecide whether they would adopt the plan put forth by the Government, viz., that the existing franchise should only remain so far as it would constitute a prima facie right to register un der this Bill ; or whether they would adopt the words introduced by his Honourable Friend the Mem bar for the University of Dublin, by which he con tinued all the existing rights, but proposed t.) supply the deficiency which had arisen in the number of electors, by certain new rights which were established under the Bill. He was ready to admit that in the pre sent decayed state of the representation in Ireland addi tional voters should be created,but it was for the Committee to consider in what way this purpose could be best effected. The Reform Act substituted an occupation of a 10/. franchise, but it left the property qualification, with a very small alteration, precisely upon the distinction which had existed from the earliest times. The first inroad which was made on that distinction arose on the Chandos clause of the Reform Act. That clause intro duced into the county constituencies persons who merely occupied, and were liable, to the payment of rates on the value of 50/. At the time when that clause was pro posed to be introduced the Noble Lord (Lord J. Russell) object( d to it on the ground of the abuse which might be expected to arise from it, but by reason of that alteration of the basis the Re form Act established a county qualification, viz., property and not occupation. Now, the Reform Act was one grand comprehensive scheme, the object of which was to bring the representative system in the three parts of the empire to a perfect similarity; and if' llon. Members would compare the existing repre sentative system as established under the Reform Act with that which was established in Ireland, they would find as much uniformity as was possible under the ex isting circumstances of each particular case. In 1129 40c. freeholders were annihilated in Ireland.

Then came the Chandos clause, by which a lease of sixty years, according to the 20th clause, cf only 10/. a year, gave a right to vote. Then it was determined that those who paid a rent of 5/. a year, in rural districts, should also have a right to vote, provided they had a certain in-- i t n e r b e o s tr boroughs, g th h s, the pbryoptherotsye. who o s h t eolfdatlel tenements eutths of the rightl a toyouks year rent. When the Reform Bill was passed an entirely new system was adopted, and revising barristers were appointed to see that the registration of voters was just so far as it went, although of course it could not be per fect.—(Bear, hear.) When it scemed desirablenstitu to pass an o th er B il l f or reg istering ency Ireland, the whole of the bar were parti cularly anxious that the law of representation s h o u l d the co• be assimilated to that of England. If the system were good, it ought to be universally adopted, and arranged fur the whole of the United Kingdom. The Reform Act was based upon the Bill of 1725, corrected by the Act of the 35th George 111., in which this distinctly a Bill recognised.

The Right Honour able Member for Tamworth had said of that Bill, thet it was calculated to revolutionize the franchise'. In order to provide for the deficiency, the Government of the day proposed to create two now classes of elector!, the first class resembling that proposed to be established by the present Bill. It gave every person who in a county was rated to the extent of 20/. a yetlr a vote, making the class equivalent to one created in England by what was called the Chandos clause. The second class that aas prop o s e d t o b e crea t e d was the 5/. freeholders. The Noble Lord at the h ea d o f the present Government did not object to the 30/. class, but with regard to th e 5/ freeholders, he suggested that the amount should be reduced to 40s. The measure, however, was not persevered in at the time, and he merely mentioned it now to show what were the views and what were the objects of the Government of that day, with which he had the honour to be connected, and in order to preserve his consistency he proposed to
