" The Marquis of LONDONDERRY said—My lords, I experience considerable reluctance, and I must throw myself on your lordship's indulgence for bringing be fore you again a subject which I have more than once submitted to the House ; I am influenced, however, solely by an anxious desire to do a public service—to prevent the ruin of a large numbe r o f Irish and Scotch industrious persons—to uphold the shortest communica tion between the South-West of Scotland and Ire land—and to prevent the false economy of a miserable saving with the abandonment of public advantages. I am aware,my lords, that I stand on very wea k groun d in advocating the matters of the petition I am about to present to your lordships. Ind e p en d en tl y o f my very humble abilities, I belong to neith er o f th e great par ties in this House. I am cer t a i n l y not a favourite with the noble lords over against rne, and I can not rank myself amongst the household troops of the able and talented leader of the Conservative narty in the House. I feel I can obtain no aid but from an honest examination of this, case on its own merits. It will not be necessary for me to go very much at large into the subject ; a general printed outline of the case has been sent, I hear, by the petitioners, to every peer. The question resolves itself under three heads : —First, the advantages and convenience of the best and shortest passage for postal communication and passen gers between the South-West of Scotland and the North of Ireland ; secondly, the prudence and wisdom, after an expenditure of nearly 400,0001., annually added to for the last half century, of abandoning the harbours constructed, for a saving of money immaterial in the amount, and evidently detrimental to a large class of her Majesty's subjects, who have been led to place confidence in the preservation of these harbours, and conseq uentlY to locate there and in the vicinity. Thirdly, whether. the economy expected from the change in contemplation amounts to such an advan tage as entirely to put an end to the various advantages derivable now from the present trade of the harbours. I certainly had hoped, as well as the petitioners, whose cause I advocate, that upon a deputation to the Prime Minister, lie would not so suddenly, without notice, and against promises held out and made, and contrary to all precedent, force this cruel measure upon an impoverished population, and deprive Scotland and Ireland of the ad vantages derived more or less in a series of years from these ports, without the most serious reflection and ex amination. With this view, after the noble marquis (the Marquis of Lonsdowne) opposite had intimated to me the intention of the Government to abandon the har bours, a large deputation waited on Lord John Russell. What passed has been in substance stated in all the public papers. Lord J. Russell desired some time to con sider the matter before he gave his final opinion, and on Friday I received the answer which I will now take leave to read to the house : " Chesham Place, June 22, 1849. " My LORD,, —Upon consideration of the memorials re specting the mail communication from Portpatrick to Donaghadee, the Government have come to the decision to abandon the postal route between those places. • " The harbours will be attended to by the Admiralty, but it is not thought advisable to continue the expense of the packets when the service can be more cheaply provided for.

The Minister of Finance is charged with the execution of the present decree, which is to be registered at the office of General Control, and published and inserted in the col lection of Government acts. (Signed) VICTOR EMANUEL. C. CIVOUR. Turin, Oct. 6, 1353. BOW-STREET.—Mrs. and Miss Marshall, of Percy street, Bedford-square, were summoned by two cabmen for paying them less than their legal fare. The defendants in these cases were the popular actress of the Strand Theatre and her mother, and the question being one of distance, they had agreed to have the ground measured. The first complainant's cab was called off the stand in Tottenham.court-road on Satur day evening, and the defendants were taken up at their residence ; but the second was engaged on the previous Friday evening, at the corner of the 'street. The fare paid on both occasions was is., including 6d. for a third passenger ; but it turned out, on measurement, that the distance between Mrs. .Marshall's door and the stage door of the Strand Theatre exceeded a mile by a few yards, while the distance from the stand was about as many yards within the mile. Miss Marshall complained that she was exposed to considerable annoyance, and sometimes to serious incon venience,' from the difficulty of getting neat) on the rank in question. Her professional duties often took her to the theatre two or three times in the course of the day, but the whole of the cabmen had apparently conspired to avoid her. Whenever she made her appearance at the stand, the men began brushing up their cabs or po lishing their harness, or falling suddenly asleep, while the waterman was sure to disappear altogether. How ever urgent her business might be, they continued deaf and blind to her appeal as long as possible, and when at length one of them was compelled to take her, he would proceed as slowly over the ground, as he could, purposely to vex her. Instead of inducing her to pay more than the legal fare, which she had often done, it had driven her to the resolution Dever to do it again. Both the cabmen declared that they " took up " at tbelady's door, but the defendants proved that this happened on only one of the two nights—" the thunder and lightning night " (Saturday). The waterman was examined upon this point, but his evidence was deemed unsatisfactory. Mr. Jardine sale. there was certainly something very like collusion in this matter. The cabman who drove the ladies on Saturday applied for his summons the next available day (Monday), and it was not until after this summons was granted that the other cabman, on the fol lowing day, applied for his summons, although his case occurred on the preceding Friday. It turned out that the defendants were right in his case and wrong in the other ; so that Mrs. Marshall would have to pay the 6d. and casts in the latter, and half the fee for measure ment ; bearing in mind in future that the mile distance terminated at the corner of her street. VICTOR EMANUEL 11., &C. The Minister Secretary of State for Public Works, in concert with the Minister of Finance, having set before us the expediency of making a provisional reduction in the Tariff for the conveyance of cereals by railway from Genoa to Turin, and the intermediate stations, We have decreed and do hereby decree : Article 1. The proportional rate of 12 centimes per ton and per kilometre, charged by the Tariff of the 17th of January, 1851, on the transport by railway of the,follow ing articles, comprised in the 3rd class ; that is to say : wheat, vegetables, flour, potatoes, chestnuts, maize, is pro visionally reduced one-half ; viz.: to 0.6 for all such goods forwarded from Genoa to Turin, anti to the intermediate stations. The fixed rate of 0.20 per quintal, chargeable by the same Tariff, is likewise provisionally abolished for the transmissions aforesaid. Article 2. The present decree will take effect from the date of its publication, and will cease to have effect at the end of May next. The Minister, Secretary of State for Public Works, is charged with the execution of the present decree, which is to be registered at the Office of General Control, and pub lished and inserted amongst the Government Acts. Given at Turin, October 6th, 1853. (Signed) VICTOR EMANUEL. PALEOCAPA. SOUTHWARK.—Wm. Gale, a dirty-looking fellow, well known as a Buck at various cab stands, was brought before Mr. Combe, charged with stealing a horse-cloth from a cab horse in George-street, Bermond sey. James Brown, the driver of the cab, said, yesterday afternoon he unfortunately had an accident to his cab in George-street, Bermondsey, and while in the act of removing it to a blacksmith's near the spot, his horse cloth was stolen off the seat of the vehicle. The pri soner had been near the place previous to his missing it, and he received information that he bad stolen it, consequently he went in search of him and gave him into custody. A lad employed at a warehouse in Bermondsey said, he stood looking at the broken cab, and while last wit ness was removing it he saw the prisoner go up in a clandestine manner and remove the horse-cloth, with which he ran away. He went and told the cab driver a little while afterwards. The prisoner denied being near the spot, or having any knowledge of the horse-cloth. Mr. Combe remanded him until Friday. Mrs. Catherine Pelham, the mistress of an infant school in the Southwark-bridge-road, was summoned for committing a violent and unnecessary assault upon William Kitchen, a child about seven years of age. The child was educated at Mrs. Enarnerson's Infant Charity School, and on Tuesday afternoon last, the 11th inst., ran home to its parents with the right side of his face striped with bruises, telling them that the defen dant had inflicted them without any necessary cause. The defendant acknowledged that she had done so, but it was accidental. The facts were these : The child stole two apples from a cart, and brought them into the school. She chided him for doing so, and by some means he bit her finger. She suddenly slapped his face, but had no intention of inflicting an y bruises. She produced a letter from the Rev. Mr. Bensom, who is trustee of the school, in which he writes that her story was probable, and that she was a good tempered mistress. Mr. Combe said from that letter it was evident that the clergyman did not know the facts, as it was clear she had imposed upon him by her story. When the child attended before him last week to make the com plaint the bruises were quite black on the face, and they must have b een i n fli c t e d by m ore than one blow, and very heavy. Even if it was a fact that the child bit her finger suddenly it clearly showed that she lost her temper, and it was a question whether she was a proper woman to have the charge of young children. He thought it would be better to adjourn the case for the attendance of the Rev. Mr. Bensom, so that he might understand the facts. The defendant's husband here stepped forward, and said he did not want Mr. Bensom to attend. He did ' not believe that he would if required. Mr. Combe said he should fine her 20s. and costs, as ' he considered it a very brutal assault. The money was paid, and the defendant and her hus band left the court. " ' I have the honour to be your lordship's obedient humble servant, it 1 J. RussELL.' Your lordships will see by this that the postal commu nication is abandoned ; but ord John Russell states that the harbours will be attended to. What advan tages or saving of public money will or can arise if the packets of the Post-office are to be taken away, or in what manner the harbours are to o b a,ttended to, Lord John Russell is entirely silent and e does a not point out.

Various reports, from time to time, by both Houses of Parliament, have been made upon it. The majority of these, together with the reports of a large number of officers and scientific professional civil engineers, as also many different First Lords of the Admiralty—Lords Haddington and Auckland, especially, in this House— also, many eminent admirals, such as Admiral Sir G. Cockburn and ,Admiral Beaufort —have one and all declared in favour of these harbours, It is true, how ever, that a noble earl (the Earl of Ellenborough), for a short time First Lord of the Admiralty, fired a random shot at my humble efforts the other evening to serve a district be was once acquainted with: IV hether that was kindly done, or in taste, the noble earl knows best ; possibly other circumstances than the mere harbours in some thirty or forty years have influenced his judgment.

He (Lord Londonderry) h a d to complain, too, that he had not received any answe r to the petitions which he had requested Lord John Russell to forward to her Majesty through the Secretary of State ; but he hoped an answer would be sent, for he could tell the Government and the noble marquis that the people of I reland regarded with the greatest loyalty, attachmen t , and reverence, H anything coming from her Majesty herself.

The people of Ireland had looked to her Majesty's great libe rality in all their sad distress, never more fully ex emplified than in her late donation of 5001., and he could tell the Government that, if they would only advisewould her to place her foot on her "Emera ld Isle," such b the joy with which she would be received, that the re en st of her dominions would, for a time at least, be forgott. 0. laugh,) If her Majesty once condescended to place ROMANCE IN REAL LIFE.—The Galway Vindicator of Saturday says :—" The barque Clarence yet remains in the Roads, wind-bound. She carries over a hundred emigrant passengers for New York. On Thursday, a remarkable and interesting, scene took place on board, which is worth recording. It appears that a young man and woman, of the peasant order, had for some time past entertained a tender feeling for each other. Both are represented as being fine specimens of the class to which they belonged—the woman comely, and the man tall and athletic. Some family circumstances having forbid their union, an elopement took place. But the elopement only reached the lengths of the pair going to a friend's house at some distance, where the bride, that was to be, was given in charge to the wife of the young man's friend. It subsequently turned out that the seemingly fickle swain refused to marry the girl, owing to the persuasions of his relatiops; and her friends, indignant at the slight cast upon her. fitted her out for a higher matrimonial market across Atlantic. Her passage was paid for New York, he e r a luggage on board, the vessel only waiting for favourable breeze, and the comely lass herself tearful had t a k en n theleave of her friends, and was sitting a change came deck of the emigrant ship, when a aking a last thario.

To Mr. Lawson humanity is indebted for the complete exposure of the barbarisms practised in the gaol ; but for his manly spirit and independence they might have gone on for some time longer in secret and unchecked. Lawson i s a poor man, he has sacrificed his place and all other personal considerations.

THE VICTORIA DOCK COMPANY. An inquiry before the Sheriff of Kent and a special jury, to assess the amount of compensation to be paid to the claimant for sixty-seven acres of marsh land, required for the purposes of constructing the large docks to be called the Victoria Docks, was concluded on Saturday evening. Mr. Edwin James, Q.C., and Mr. Hawkins appeared for the claimant, and the Attorney-General and Mr. Bovill represented the company. The case occupied two days. The point in contest chiefly was whether the land was to be paid for as agricultural land only, or as building ground. Upon the part of the claimant it was valued at 22,0001. and 26,0001., and by those who valued for the company at 9,0001. The jury retired for some time, and gave a verdict for 16,000/.

ALARMING ACCIDENT ON A CANAL—About half-past 6 o'clock on Saturday morning an embankment of the Manchester, Bolton, and Bury Canal, near the Pres tolee-locks, a few miles from Bolton, gave way, and nearly 30 yards' length of earthwork was carried away. The canal runs along the side of a hill at the point where it burst, and about twenty yards below it is the river Irwell. The rush of water through the crevasse was on a grand scale for a time, and formed as magnificent a waterfall as could be desired ; but fortunately the channel of the river below was of ample capacity to receive it, without any overflow resulting to injure adjacent property, or place human life in danger. Two empty coal boats were near, and were carried through the opening into the river, but a boy having charge of them had the presence of mind to leap out upon one of the banks, and he probably thus saved his life, as the boats were dashed to pieces. The late heavy rains are supposed to have been the immediate cause of the accident, but a subsidence of substrata, in conse quence of coal-workings underneath, is supposed to have previously weakened the embankment. The canal is the property of the Lancashire and Yorkshire Railway Company, and the traffic is almost wholly one of coal. They have employed a large body of mon to repair the canal, and, as their railway runs nearly parallel with the canal almost throughout its entire length, they have it in their power to prevent much inconvenience to the public through the accident, LADVERTISEMENT.]-DARK DAYS AND LONG NIGHTS.—The necessity of having the most perfect eye -sight and hearing, and bright and brilliant spectacles.

S. and B. ' Solomons, opticians and oculists, have invented Spectacle Lenses, with p anop ti c f rames to see over at a distance while reading, writing, &c., of the greatest transparent power. The valuable advantage derived from this inven tion over the spectacles now in common use is, that in stead of vision becoming strained, heated, weakened, and in numerous cases seriously injured, it is preserved and strengthened ; and very aged persons are enabled to em ploy their sight at the most minute occupation ; can see with those lenses of a much less magnifying power ; and, that which is a matter of the greatest consequence is, they do not require the frequent changes to the dangerous effects of further powerful assistance. - The Royal Exhibition. - -A valuable, newly-invented, very small powerful waist coat-pocket glass, the size of a walnut, by which a person can be seen and known one mile and a half distant ; they answer every purpose on the race-course, at the opera-houses country scenery, and ships aro clearly seen at 12 to 14 nines.
