Aug. 24. 1847. EX TRAORDINARY CONVERSIONS TO ROMANISM IN THE WORKHOUSE OF DERRY UNION. (From the Londonderry Sentinel) We publish in succeeding columns a lengthened repc of an investigation held on Thursday last, at the Der Workhouse, by Mr. Otway, the Assistant Poor LI Commissioner. It will be perceived that the Rev. Ali J. M'Carron and one of his curates, who seems to w orthy disciple o f th a t Reverend, or, to give him official title, "Venerable" person, make every prom , figure in the business of the day.

Indeed, while they have been reduced respectively, since 1821, from ls. to 4d. per lb., and from ls. to 2d. per lb., the duty on tea has been enhanced ; but although the effect of this different treatment of articles so similar in their nature may be seen in the different rates of increase which took place since 1821, the con sumption of coffee having increased by 500 per cent., and that of cocoa by above 1,000 per cent., while the increase in that of t ea i n th e same per i od has been only 130 per cent ; yet even that proportion, amounting to a positive increase of 24,000,0001b5., due only to lower prices, ar i ising from a m ore o pe n t re d e, f u ll y b ears out the gene- want of that favour in th That the consumption of tea has not yet received its full development, is further clear, if we consider the large proportion of tea consumed in other populations of similar tastes with those of the British islands. In these the consumption is no more than 1 lb. 10oz. per head, where asJanerdsAeyasatnrad ey li G a u a e v r e n r s yc , aa , l s l i b da . i to b z l . ;laa larger it app ears t h at i n the Isle of Man it is 2 lb. 10. ; in Newfoundlandrinproportion. It will b e sa id , however, ‘y that any reduction in duty would only have the effect, by throwinr, 1 large t,, r demand on the markets in China, of increasing the pri ce t o t h e English m erc h ant ; and iat, c such reduction would rather goontosetreerai, the benefit of grower or merchant than to the English consumer. 'Wis e would doubtedly be th e case to a considerable extent tullie market of supply were li m i ted, or difficult to be extended; but your committee are bound to state that they have no apprehension that this will be found to be the case with regard to tea. Although it is a point on which, from the limited acquaintance we possess with the interior of China, it is impossible to produce distinct information, yet we know that the demand for tea from China has been pro gressively and rapidly rising for many years, with no other result than that of diminished prices; and that there is a population which is assumed to be above 300,000,000, and at all hours of the day consuming tea, which onlyrequires some change of preparation to be fit for exportation ; thus implying an amount of supply, on which any demand that may be made for foreign export can be after a very short time but slightly felt. We know also that the market has , never been drained of tea in any one year, but that there has always been a surplus left to meet any extraordinary demand. We have every reason to believe that the culti vation of the plant may be indefinitely extended. We have, moreover, the general experience in all arti cles, the supply of which is not limited by physical or other causes (such as cotton, &c.), that an increased de mand, by stimulating the industry or the enterprise of the parties interested, has the no very distant effect of producing a larger supply at a lower price ; instead of per manently raising it. If, on the other hand, it should be said, that to convert that into a profitable which has hitherto been an unprofit able trade, it is necessary that some part of the reduction . _ _ price ; the answer is, that the mere interest on the duty if reduced from 2s. 21 2 d. to ls. would of itself be nearly enough to make the whole difference between a losing and living trade, and the, whole benefit of the reduction the consumer. would Under these circumstances ioubt that the full benefit of if not irnmediat lone interva very si 'reduction of price would R to the consumer, 1 of time, by increased con h might at first rem emi , nsequer ion WI seem lit 'cyv to the cor mtial to iheexti; hink themselves jest period which desirable in itself cini habits of the Iry loss to the revenue, China, it has the world I make e no his to 'ence 1, to en! the ROman Ca 4 .ernal sal ie in rel In American Leavin a val ir his cl I was E out expressing my me .s-aelleC, in the co h—l do rejoice, I R' make r no con _to_ its doctrine —• ,tston read the report, which statement of the affairs of the sock ing was then addressed by Mr. Py it, rector of St. Martin's, Edinburg Wesleyan minister, and other °s#;':o of the o bj ects of the ' meetir aiprornise of my relic and its episcopal of my principles by cor ) differ with me upon these that high principle that the V 2 a very ye, the R ;h ; the R I OUR COMMERCIAL RELATIONS WITH CHINA THE TEA DUTIES The report of the select committee appointed to inquire into the state of our commercial relations with China has been published, and from it we take the following inte resting extracts : on the condition of our cor .cial rel I tions v undo' de with t been for some time in a very tins ur extended intercourse has by no ust expectations which had been T we look to the tables of exports, which mark an of. exports in nearly every branch of mann- to the st , Inents Of experienced r 3 are brought to the s I manufacturers, v conclusion.

But the fiscal and commercial convenience of a single fixed duty, together with its proved tendency to draw a better quality into consumntion, overbear in this case, as in many other similar cases of taxation, the apparent equity of attempting to proportion the duty to the quality of the article consumed. WHAT SUPPORT CAN THE PRESENT GOVERN MENT EXPECT ? (From the Morning Herald.) We have shown, in one or two former articles, that, dividing the New House of Commons into the two great classes of " Liberal" and " Conservative," there will be found from 826 to 328 votes in each. That this is a fair and moderate statement, and not exaggerated on the Conservative side, may be seen by comparing it with the Morning Post's estimate, which Protectionists Liberals .... . Peelites Nondescript .. Returns not yet received Sudbury Which, in two classes, would give— Liberals .... . Conservatives Thus giving the Liberals six fewer, and the Conserva tives five more, than our calculation. Starting, then ' with our first-ascertained fact, that the Liberals in the house will be 326 or 328, our next duty is, to separate these into the two sections, of Whigs or Ministerialists and Irregulars, consisting of Radicals, Repealers, Dissenters, and the like. The necessity of this subdivision will be as evident as the propriety of distin mishing, which we shall hereafter do, between the fol -Avers of Sir Robert Peel and the followers of Lord tanley. Those who remember the bitter opposition ven to Lord John Russell's Manchester Bill, by the mcombes, Humes,- Brights, &c., and who marked also delight with which the same party helped to throw out Secretary Hawes at Lambeth, Mr. Macaulay at iburgh, and General Fox in the Tower Hamlets, will 'm importance of distinguishing between those who ,Trove the church, and those who would pull it down—between those who - venerate and would preserve the aristocracy, and those who ask, with Mr. Bright, " How much lon g e r i s thi s h um b ug to b e carr i e d on ?" Well; then, taking- the whole Liberal strength to be 328 votes,—how many of these will submit to take the word of command from the Whigs ? To how many will Mr. Tuffnel, when the St. Alban's and Bodmin Bishop ricsregu e ßill stign eo comes their attendance l) e able ( br address certain divisions" h i s littl ?Let circulars, us analyse the list with this view. And if we select the " Irregulars " first, their number, deducted from the whole, will leave the net amount of actual " Ministeri alists." Mild in :bibit a collection of Governor, with remarkable prudence and foresight, sent down a large force of soldiers from Castletown, at an early hour, in case of an attack frcm the shore upon the royal squadron! They were drawn up rank and file upon the pier, but as for himself he was not to be seen. At length he made his appearance accompanied by the Clerk of the Rolls, and after procuring an old punt and two ragged lads as oarsmen, pushed off to greet her Majesty, but he was the day after the fair—the wheels were in motion— the royal standard floated in the breeze; and the Monarch of half the globe had left this gem of the ocean&left it, we fear, with no favourable impression of our state of civilization, or of official etiquette pertaining to the Isle of Man. We do not regret that his Excellency failed to reach the Royal yacht. He was neither dressed nor equip ped for the occasion. He was not in official costume, but dressed in plain toggery, seated in an old boat redolent of herrings and fish offal, with two " pinks " at the oars that smelled equally strong of Tommy Statham's tap. That her Majesty was slighted and the people insulted by such studied disrespect on the part of our authorities, is unquestionable ; but we contend that it was well the re presentative of royalty in the Island never reached his destination. A hurried compliment and a shabby mode of making it, can convey neither honour nor respect. Her Majesty was more honoured in the breach than in the observance of Governor Hope's etiquette ; and as for the rest of our'authorities, so called, they were better at home curing their herrings than floundering in herring THE NAVIGATION LAWS.—The following facts, ced in evidence before the select committee of lasts( can scarcely fail to *duce a strong impression of the ne: cessity of upholding the principle of the navigation laws in all their integrity. And, first, we may say that history is favourable to the maintenance of the n ' The immediate effect of the passir of the N igation avigation Act of Charles the , the mercantile navigation of the country years more than doubled ; and under the operation of navigation laws the mercantile tonnage of the country ha rapidly increased, and has now attained the enormous magnitude of 3, 800 , 000 tons. Again, it is a fact that Prussia 35 per cent., in Denmark and Norway 31 per superior ships can be built in Finland 50 per cent., in cent., and in the United States 17 per cent. cheaper than in England, and thus an open competition would be ruin ous to all engaged in the construction of shipping in this country. One great cause of this is that labour is much dearer in England than elsewhere, and foreigners can, therefore, both man and build their vessels much cheaper than Englishmen ; so that British shipwrights, and Bri tish seamen, if the navigation laws were repealed, mu' submit to foreign rates of labour if they would .retain employment. Again, it is a fact that more goods are .n. ported into British ports thdn into all the rest of the world put together. Thus " reciprocity" treaties, as they are ,for a called, must be unequal, and pl ace us a t a di sa d van t age .

William R. and from The suspension of the house of Me Robinson and Co. was announced this morning, caused a degree of excitement which arose rather _ the Circumstance of the senior partner being the Governor of the Bank of England, than from the actual extent of the liabilities of the firm. These liabilities are stated at about £105,000, and it is understood that the assets, as nominally made out, show 15s. in the pound, although no expectation is entertained of the ultimate realizatior of that amount.

One means of remedy would obviously con- ist in render it upon some party wholly un business vat nd who might I on and recognised financial abilities. Another remedy, but perhaps a less effectual one, would be the abolition of the practice at present pursued by the pro prietors of adopting " house lists," and thus leaving each vacancy in the direction entirely to the nomination of the existing court. The advantage of the opposite .fied at the India-house; and whatever wy be reformed in the constitution of the Bank of ngland, it is hardly possible but that the close system hich has hitherto prevailed must soon cease to be tole ited. The proprietors have now for an ample period ,nfided this branch of their power to the directors, and Amy in which these parties have justified the confider) , reposed in them has been sufficiently manifested practic else m e is exempl years the ordinary number of governors would be nine, and during that period, as we have already observed, no less than six of those who have either held or passed through the office have broken down ; it having been afterwards demonstrated in almost every in stance that each of these parties was, not only at the Period of selection hopelessly insolvent, but that such must have been his condition for many years previ ously. With these consequences before them, the proprietors can have no excuse fr They ma,- further supinenes escape the trouble of selection, but not its responsibility - ; and if they feel indisposed to fulfil the duty they owe in this respect to the public, from whom they receive so much, it will certainly devolve upon the Government to terminate as far as possible all relations with the establish ment, since its power of compromising the reputation of the country arises solely from its connexion with the state.

We wonder that no admonition has been heard—that no remonstrance has been raised, and that the papers which record the desecra tion do not bestow on it a line of respectful reprehension. It is an unseemly sight—a Prince rushing from place to place to inspect operations, and to examine dockyards, on the day which the Almighty has hallowed, and the Church has consecrated, and the nation, with one consent, agreed to solemnize. How much more becoming would it have been had the Queen and her Consort entered under one of those homely roofs where God is worshipped by humble followers, and thus set an example which would have been see to her subjects, and honourable to herself !

It appears from the correspondence, which commenced so far back as the 10th of July, that the Dun garvan patriots had bean in treaty with Mr. ( the successful candidate, - for Youghal, but as they pre ferred a genuine sample of a Conciliation Repealer, they begged that they might be favoured with the loan either of Sir Colman O'Loghlen (a young Irelander, by the way) or John Augustus O'Neill, the recently rejected of Kil dare. The former, however, having declined standing for any place, the high contracting parties pitched upon Mr. O'Neill as the most discreet and proper person to fight the battle with the Ministerialist. After some fur ther negotiation it became manifest that Mr. John O'Con nell could not fulfil his part of the bargain, as Mr. O'Neill seemed to have but little stomach for an expensive and hazardous contest.
