" Sir,—As the period is now approaching when the
CAocrtplulsaAnedtlw2a p s Victoria,susen cap.ded in this country, will expire,
I feel it my duty to bring under the consideration of her
Majesty's Government the reasons which induce me to
_ recommend the continuation of that law for a farther
■ limited period.
" It was with deep regret, that on a former occasion I
felt myself compelled to ask for the enactment of this
measure, but circumstances have since fully confirmed
myneceasdsoitit,edanbdylhecranh aveno
doubt Majesty's
Government,
almost unanimous support which the Bill received in
opinion
th a t o
thef
and
its
nd coursethe urgentm
raParliament, mainly contributed to the suppression of
ol effect produced by the
then
the rebellious movement which unhappily broke out In
this country.
" While availing myself of the extraordinary power
confided to me by the Act, it has been my earnest en-
deavour to limit its operation as far as possible, and to
confine the deprivation of personal liberty to the cases of
those individuals who were actually engaged in treason-
able designs, or who, by encouraging the disaffected, en-
dangered the peace and tranquillity of the country. No
instance occurred of any arrest taking place except on
sworn informations; no person was retained in custody
longer than the public safety appeared to require; and
although the number of individuals whore it was my
painful duty to place in temporary confinement was con-
siderable, having amounted in all at different times be
about 120, yet, considering the extent to which treason-
able organization had been carried, not only in the me-
tropolis, but in several counties of Ireland, the number
can hardly be said to exceed what might have been anti-
cipated.
" The security afforded by the enforcement of the law,
and the conviction that its provisions would only be ap-
plied against those whose conduct had rendered their
detention absolutely necessary, has been felt by the
community at large; and the restoration of order, in
place of that which for a time was a reign of terror,
has been hailed with universal satisfaction. But on
the part of those engaged in the late treasonable move-
ment, no indication whatever of sorrow or repentance
for their misdeeds has been observed. Their regret is
confined to their failure, and their hopes are direeted to
a more successful issue on the first favourable opportu-
nity; nor is there any reason to believe (and upon this
point I have collected information from various persons
on whose judgment and local knowledge I could rely)
that the recent orderly conduct of the people in the dis-
tricts where disturbances prevailed or were threatened,
proceeds from any improved feeling as regards either
the law or the executive government. The total ab-
sence of support of the authorities in their endeavours
to suppress insurrection, the renewed attempt at re-
bellion in the vicinity of the town where the leaden of
the movement were being brought to justice, and the
disregard of proclamations requiring the surrender of
arms, are facts which indicate that, however the failure
of past attempts at insurrection may have weakened
the confidence of the disaffected, the feeling which gave
rise to and encouraged that movement still remains un-
changed, and would again become active upon any oc-
casion that appeared to offer even a distant prospect of
success.

" Honourable Sirs,
" We, the undersigned Proprietors of East India Stock, duly qua-
lified by law, request that you will convene, at your earliest conve-
nience, a Special General Court of Proprietors, for the purpose of
taking into consideration the accompanying Resolutions, and that
ou will be pleased to publish the same with this, our requisition.
We have the honour to be,

" Your obedient Servants,

"J. SULLIVAN.

"JOHN POYNDER.

RESOLUTIONS.
" That by the treaty concluded between the East Indian a
25th Company
and his late Highness Pertaub Singh, Raja of Satfara, the
September, 1819, the territories of Sattara were secured to him and
to his heirs in perpet,fal sovereignty. That by the supplemental
treaty of September, 1839, the said territories were confirmed to his
brother Appa sahib, as the next collateral heir and successor, and to
his heirs, on the sama terms as specified in the treaty of September,
1819.
" That this Court has heard with feelings of the deepest surprise
and alarm of the contemplated seizure, confiscation, and annexation,
by the East India Company, of the Setters territories, in violation of
the rights of the lawful heir ; believing, as this Court does, that such
seizure, confiscation,. and annexation would be a most flagrant breach
of the said treaties so solemnly entered into and confirmed, would
be a disgrace and stain upon the British character, and would se-
riously weaken the confidence hitherto reposed by the princes and
people of India in the justice and good faith of the East India Com-
pany and of the British Government.
" That under such circumstances this Court deems it to be their
Imperative duty to declare their solemn conviction of the impolicy
and danger, no less than of the Injustice °ranch a aroceeding, and to
suchiEL yammte, measure." '
express their earnest hope that the Court of Directors and the Board
of Control will withhold their sanction

" It is true that any future attempts at rebellion will
be much discouraged by the failure of those which have
passed, and the originators of any new agitation will
have none of the prestige of success to aid, and much of
the sense of past discomfiture to damp, their exertions;
but still this country has been too long trained to a sys-
tem of agitation to be at once weaned from such
course, and nothing but a continued enjoyment of that
peace, which the absence of all political excitement has
now created, and improved habits it will generate, and
the social advantages it will not fail to produce, can save
Ireland from wasting her energies in the strife of rival
factions, instead of exerting them by industry for the
improvement of the country.
" It is to secure for Ireland this continued repose
which is so vitally essential to her prosperity
to protect the country from the renewal of an
agitation for objects that cannot be attained, and
which for many years has disturbed its tranquillity,
scaring away capital, destroying confidence, and ren-
dering impossible the steady application of industry,
that I desire strongly to impress on her Majesty's Go-
vernment the importance of applying to Parliament for
a renewal of those powers which the 11 gild 12 Vict.
c. 35 placed at the disposal of the Exectifive Govern-
ment in Ireland. lam well aware of the grave respon-

Government should see fit to propose, and Parliament to
sanction, the renewal of this Act, I trust that the manner
in which it has hitherto been carried into effect, will be
an earnest that its future administration will be marked
by leniency and justice.

T FIE POET'S DREAM.

Sleeping-or waking, strange as it may seem,
All °lever poets have the power to dream :
The truth of tilts' I oftentimes have shown,
In rather carious day-dreams of my own.
Shakespere alludes to dreaming in a doze,
While Mab, the fairy, INSates the nose.
But from the following fancy you will see,
That night or day, 'Hs all the same to me.
The dream 'in question brought into the scene
Prince Albert and her Majesty the Queen.
The Queen on Thursday last (you know the date),
Had been to open Parliament in state ;
And having reached the royal habitation,
The illustrious couple joined in conversation.
"Sir,' said the Sovereign to the good Prince A,
" Did you observe the multitudes to-day,
• And did your Royal Highness note with me,
How well attired tile people seemed to be."
I did," replied the Prince, " and felt right glad
To see the people so gcnteely clad ;
And more and more this pleasing scene disposes
Your humble consort to procure of MOSES.
Your Majesty, of course, is well aware.
That MOSES' dresses were the chief ones there."
Tes." said her Majesty, "exactly se,
THE DRESS OF MOSES
We may always know.
There's something so superior in its cut,
That folks might see it if their eyes were shut.
I trust your Royal Highness will not rest,
Till in the famous style of MOSES dressed."
"No," said the Prince, "That I'm resolved to be,
And pleased I am our tastes fp well agree ;
And, by-the-bye, the Princes shall be dressed
In Youths' attire, 'Mich all pronounce the beat.
" THE EATS OF MOSES
Also," said the Queen,
"Added a deal of beauty to the scene.
Your Royal Highness, as we passed along,
No doubt observed them in the numerous throng."
" Yes," said the Prince, " I did, nor did I lose
The chance of seeing
MOSES' BOOTS AND SHOES.
hew well they looked—how well they seemed to fit"—
" Yes," said the Queen, " that's true. I must admit ,
And did you not observe the ladies, Sir,
How very well they looked in
MOSES' FUR?"
" Yes," said the Prince, " I did, and I confess,
I very much admired their Winter dress.
THE HOSIERY
I also thought was such
As ever royal hands would wish to touch."
" Yes," said her Majesty, " I thought so, too ;
I noticed it, and quite agree with you.
All that we've seen to-day, in my opinion,
Proves MOSES' Mart the pride of the dominion."
