IMPERIAL PARLIAMENT.

HOUSE OF COMMONS.—Tots DAY.

IMPORTANT GOVERNMENT ANNOUNCE-
MENT RESPECTING IRELAND.

Lord J. RUSSELL rose at half-past four, and made
the following announ:vment :—Mr. Speaker, I rise
to give notice that 1 propose, at twelve o'clock to-
morrow, to ask for leave to Mug in a bill to
empower the Lord Lieutenant or other chief
governor or governors of Ireland to apprehend and
detain until the Ist of March, 1849, such person or
persons as ho shall suspect of conspiring against her
Mejesty's person or government.

TROOPS FOR IRELAND.—A company of the Royal
Artillery from Woolwich left the Euston-square station this I
morning for Dublin.
YACHT-RACE ROUND IRELAND.—We learn by the
Electric Telegraph Company's Express, that tke race between
the yacht Sultana and the barque Panic was decided in fa- 1
veur of the former, which arrived at the winning point (the
light ship), at 16 minutes past one this morning (Friday).
THE CHARTIST CONVlCTS.—Yeetkrday 20e. was
paid at the gate of Tothill-fields House of Correction to re-
lease Mr. Earnest Jones for one month from oakum picking,
to which he has been, in common with his fellow chartist
convicts, subjected amen his incarceration, and wilt be, in de-
fault o! the payment of a weekly sum of 55., the charge made '
by the county for his maintenance.
SWANSEA DOCK COMPANY.—The half-yearly meet-
ing of this company was held yesterday at Medley's Hotel,
Bridge-street, Blackfriars, C.ptain Evan Morgan, R.A
in the chair. The usual formalities having been gone
through, the secretary (Mr. Francis) read the report, which
congratulated the shareholders on the fact that the dif-
ferences whick formerly existed in the board of direction
had been arranged to the satisfaction of all parties. The
share list of the company had in consequence exhibited a
marked improvement. The report further stated that the
secretary had voluntarily offered a reduction in his salary
from 3004 to 1001. a year; and that the reduction of the
duties on the import of copper ore must bring a great acces-
sion of business to the docks, the necessity for the comple-
tion of which was becoming every day more apparent, parti-
cularly with reference to the Australian trade. From a
statement of accounts laid before the meeting it appeared
that the total receipts of the company amounted to
5,9081. Si. 7d., and the expenditure to 4,8.501, 131. 81., leav-
ing a balance in the hands of the company of 1,1471. 141.11c1.
The report and accounts having been read, a resolution, ap-
proving the same wee, upon the motion of Mr. Dickens, se-
conded by Mr. Besot, unanimously carried. In answer to
questions from Colonel Cameron, and other gentlemen,
as to the course which the company might think it expe-
dient to adopt in the immediate prosecution or otherwise of
the undertaking, the chairman said the shareholders
might rest perfectly satisfied that the directors would take
no decisive step without the concurrence of the general body
of the shareholders. After the usual votes of thanks the
meeting separated.
DISGRACEFUL TREATMENT OP EMIGRANTS.—On
Monday, at Liverpool Police court, Rafferty and
Haack. were charged by Michael liengan and another with
having received money for passages to New York, under
false pretences, and afterwards refusing places in the ship
agreed upon, or in any other. Mr. Davenport appeared for
the defendants, who were not in custody, and Lieut. Hodder
was present on behalf of the emigrants, he being the
goverument agent, fur the protection of emigrants leaving
this port. The complainant Rennin said that they
had paid for himself and others to Rafferty the
sum of 481., for their respective passages to New York,
in she ship Forest Monarch. The money was paid into
the hands of Rafferty, in the presence of Hackit, and at
their office. the ship had since gime to sea. They bad
applied to get on board the ship, but were refused, and no
other had been provided. Mr. Davenport endeavoured to
show that a mistake existed, and that Messrs. Shaw and Saul
were owners or agents of the vessel, and ought to nave looked
into the matter for the complainants. The magistrate said
that Mr. Davenport's clients had basely robbed the parties.
They had no authority whatever to procure passengers for
the ship in question, or to receive money from them. Both
Mr. Show and Mr. Saul, on being applied to for that pur-
pose' told Rafferty that they would have nothing to do
with either of the defendants in the matter.—The clerk
of the court then stated that the defendants would have
to pay as follows : To be repaid, 481 • subsistence money for
the passengers (detained), Ill.; penalty, 101.;—total, 691.
The magistrate said the license of both Rafferty and Hackit
should be immediately withdrawn • and bethought the other
similar eases formed a good plea for the law requiring that
each of those who received Bemires should be required to
lodge securities to the amount of 2001.—Lieut. Hodder said
there were other impositions upon emigrants equally bad,
but some of them could not be punished here. He produced
a letter, dated New York, Jan. 29, from a man named S am.
Gray, by which it appeared that he had there paid to an
emit 61 dol.. 50c. for the passage from this port to New
York for his wife and children, out of which they had been
totally defrauded. On the front page of the letter (which
was affectionately written) was a printed order fillzsi up
in ink, with the names of the family, the wife, Mary
Gray, aged 40, and Margaret, James, Samuel, Eleanor,
and John Gray, their children, aged from 10 to 2 yearn.
It was addressed from the firm of Olney and Cotterall,
who were represented here by a person named Rayners,
and the parties deluded by it. Lieut. Hodder also produced
the Boston Vindicator of the 31st Jan., in which the public
are cautioned against a fellow named Hardman, who was
undf r heavy bonds in Baton for robbing poor emigrants,
and who hail fled to Liverpool " to actfur Olney and Co., in
the capacity of maneatcher." The Irish Emigrant Society
. in Boston had thae..vereil a number of other similar eases of
defrauding. lie had in vain endeavoured to stop the prac-
tiCe, and warned the public against paying any moneys for
r drafts in Ireland or Liverpool to the said Herdrnan and Co.,
. now of 20, Wall-street, New York. One of the informati .ns
I against Rafferty and I ackit was fi r refsing the compl
ants a paesage as stated f ; another was for fraudulently repre-
, !renting themselves as authorised by Messrs. Saul and Shaw to
, contract for passengers in their ship, and inducing complain-
ants' and others to engage as steerage passengers, well knowing
they were not authorised. Means. Saul and Shaw appeared,
and said they had given no such authority. The officers re-
ceived instructions to appr. head the delinquents by warrant.

CORN. MARK-LANE. Our market hag been
tolerably well supplied with both English and foreign Wbeat
during the week ; but, owing to the unfavourable accounts
of the Patatn-crops received from various parts of
the country, millers and dealers evinced much more
disprisition to purchase, and the decline reported on
Monday was hilly recovered to-day. Barley was
in good request, and brought the extreme rates of
Monday last —Arrivals of foreign Oats are again large,
41,740 qrs. having come to hand during the week ; the trade
in this article was dull in the extreme, hut cannot be quoted
