Victoria emigrant ship, leaving his family entirely destitute,
I and if the magistrate did not interfere in her behalf she had
no alternative but to throw herself upon the parish. The
magistrate relieved this woman's eternities with a donation
of 10s.from the poor box, and on Wednesday Emma Lofinck,
a young woman of 19, with a chiiel In her arms, and sister-In-
taw of the other, presented herself with a similar complaint,
that her husband had also been sent out under the auspices of
Mr. Jackson, bat with this difference, that she had not the
slightest notion that he was going to emigrate, as he left her
and her child In the morning with a promise to be home in
the evening, and that she bad never seen him since. She
had been ever since in the deepest dimess, the child in her
won was dangerously ill, and she bad no wens of procuring
support for herself or medical attendance for her intuit.—
Mr. Arnold said that it was certainly the moat extraordinary
can he had ever beard, and he should like to know what it
all meant, as he felt perfectly satisfied that. Lord Ashley
would never have contributed his money to an undertaking
which hail for its object the separation of husbands from
their wives and (smiles, and placing the latter in the posi-
tion of destitute paupers. The fact of the wand cam
coming so speedily alter the first rendered it a matter of
considerable public importance, and he should imme-
diately rend ono of the warrant °Mem to the

themselves had given him a very different statement, It

be deeply regretted the consequences of the deception they a

that mildest caution bad not been used in ascertaining

what the clarinets of the men actually were • !
but, admitting that they were felons, nothing could i
justify their separation from their wives under such

that he was wholly at a leis what to suggest for their benefit, '

observed that the parties who had taken upon themselves
the obligation of sending a number of men oat of the king-
dem upon their more representation that they were leaving
no one behind them, without proper inquiries to ascertain 1
the fact, bad placed themselves in a rather awkward position, t
and he should recommend Mr. Jackson to take the matter
into serious consideration, with the view of effecting some '
