LINEN TRADE (Ireland) COMMITTEE—Power to Commit-
' tee to report Opinion.—lteport brought up, and read, as fol-
lows :

1. Resolved, That it is the -opinion of this Committee, that
Ireland has claims undoubtedly strong upon the Parliament of
the United Kingdom, for every aid and encouragement neces-
sary to the maintenance and support of the Linen Manufac-
ture, at least to the extent of the annual Parliamentary Grant
made and confirmed under circumstances detailed in a docu-
ment in the Appendix, numbered 1.
2. That it is the opinion of this Committee, that the Laws
which relate to this important branch of the public industry of
Ireland require revision and amendment, and many of them
that were wise and necessary at the time of their enactment,
and under which the Manufacture in its origin throve, would,
if now enforced, produce much inconvenience, if not a serious
injury, in many particulars, to the interests of the Manufac-
ture, and such Laws ought therefore to he repealed.
3. That it is the opinion of this Committee, that, proceed-
ing in the consideration of those Laws according to the order
in which they affect the Manufacture, it appears to this Com-
mittee, that it would not be expedient to alter the system of
the inspection of Flax-seed previous to the let of July, 1826,
before which time the policy of continuing that inspection may
be further investigated.
4. That it is the opinion of this Committee, that Irish Flax
would be in very extensive and increased demand for exporta-
tion for the use of the British manufacturers of mill-spun Linen
Yarn, if brought to market in a clean regular made-up state,
and would thus be equally applicable to and sought for by those
manufacturers, and answer all the purposes of their manufac-
ture, as any Foreign Flax whatsoever; but they supply them-
selves to a comparatively small extent with Irish Flax, incon-
sequence of the dirty imperfect state in which it is offered for
sale, to the injury of the growers and vendors of the article to
the amount of from twenty-five to thirty per cent. on the value.
5. That it is the opinion of this Committee, that it is there-
fore expedient to provide, that Flax fraudulently made up for
Sale in public market, shall be punishable by small fines, reco-
verable before a Magistrate on the complaint of a purchaser :
Anti it is further the opinion of this Committee, that the atten-
tion of the Linen Board ought to be very particularly directed
to the best practice of making up Flax for sale, to the most
effectual method of giving publicity to that system, and of en-
couraging the dealers in Flax to adopt it.
6. That it is the opinion of this Committee, that the further
advancement, prosperity, and -success of the Linen Manufacture
in Ireland, will very much depend upon bringing into general
use the improved description of Scutcu Mill for dressing Flax,
and upon establishing mill machinery for spinning Linen Yarn,
which will not, in the opinicin of this Committee, interfere with
the interests of the spinner of hand-spun yarn, as both mill and
hand-spun yarn are required, and to great demand, for dif-
ferent parts of the manufacture of Linen.
7. That it is the opinion of this Committee, that it is expe-
dient that Irish Yarn, exposed for sale in public market, be
subjected to regulations respecting length and count, and equal
quality, such regulations to be enforced (not as at present, by
the forfeiture of the yarn), but by small fines, recoverable before
a Magistrate.
8. That it is the opinion of this Committee; that it is expe-
dient to exempt Foreign and. British Yarn imported into Ire=
land from any regulation, or
.by any inspection of any public
officer.
9. That it is the opinion of this Committee, that all Brown
Linen exposed to sale in a public market shall be subject to
the present legislative regulations in -respect to the lengths,
breadths, measurement, sealing, and inspection of said Linens,
such regulations to be enforced by small.fines, recoverable be-
fore a Magistrate; but neither Irish Yarn, or Brown Linen
Cloth, shall be subjected to any legislative rule or restriction,
unless when brought to public fair or market for sale.
10. That it is the opinion of this Committee, that a Fund
being provided for the encouragement and advancement of the
Linen Manufacture of Ireland, anti legislative enactments for
the regulation of that manufacture being necessary, together
with officers appointed, responsible for the, execution thereof,
some superintending authority is required to make due appli-
cation of such Fund, to controul the conduct of such officers„
to receive and decide upon the claims of those taking interest
in promoting the manufacture, and in' hearing and redressilfg
the complaints of parties concerned in or- connected with the
trade.
11: That it is the 'opinion of this Committee, that the distri-
bution of the small utensils, consisting of wheels and reels,
heretofore placed at the individual elisposal of the members of
the Linen Board, may be discontinued for the future without
any injury tothe Linen Trade.
12. That it is the opinion or this COMmittee, that the Linen
Trade having acquired a degree-of advanceirient in the North
of Ireland, highly beneficial to the industry, Wealth, and moral
habits of the people, a most zealous attention ought to be exerted
for the purpose of extending that trade into the other parts of.
Ireland.
13. That it is the opinion-of this Committee, that the rooms,
buildings, and premises, in the Linen anti Yarn Balls of Dub-
lin, ought to be let for any term, not exceeding seven years, to
the Factors and others engaged in the. Linen and Yarn Trade
of Ireland; or to persons concerned in any other of the Manu-
factures of Ireland, for their accommodation, and for the stor-
ing the produce of these Manufactures; •
14. That it is the opinion of this Committee, that the Chair-
man do report these Resolutions to the House', 'and Move for
leave to bring in a Bill grounded thereon.—Report to lie on the
table, and to be printed. - . •

En the Paris Papers of Sunday we Lind nothing

of importance.

Letters-from Prevesa,dated 28th April, con-
tain the following particulars relatiVe .to the ad-.
vance of.the Seraskier, REDSCIIID PAci5A, against
Missolonghi, and the defeat which he sustained
at Anatolie°, 015 which occasion 6000 Turks
were killed or taken prisoners
" The Seraskier had set out from Arta with 20,000-, or ac-
cording to some accounts with no less than 30,000 men, and
had already approached Anatolico, meantime daily actions took
place with the Greeks, who were retreating, and who had laid.
waste every thing on their way. In these actions the Turks.
had the'disadvantage, and adeording to 'all the accounts they.
were already exhausted and destitute of provfsions and ammu-
nition, when they 'arrived in the environs of -Anatolie°. - On the
17th April the Greeks attacked: with the greatest.h#petnosity
Redschid Pacha, who wag in want of every accesisavyi.aild dis
persed the whole army, Redschid himself fled „to Arta, on which
the greater part of the A lbanians,-w; i° had stilt apeornpapiedhima,.-
deserted him, Among the prisoners brought by' the-Greeks to
hlissolonghi is Selim Bey, nephew of the Seraskier. Greek
Journals and the Corfu Gazette contain some preliminary ac-
counts of this brilliant affair. The Egyptian -expedlibri, the '
remainder of which is in Motion, and which reports from 'dif-
ferent quarters represent as unable to do any thing, is placed bi
thedefeat of the Seraskier in a critical situation, especially as
GreOt fleet of 40 'sail (aa-sve have before learnt),. intercept all
supplies from Sushi, and has already 'dispersed one division that
sailed. for Suda, with reinforcements for the Egyptian ArmY.,
We are consequently impatient for further accounts of the final
fate-of Ibrahim Pacha."—(Allgerrzeine Zeitung, j,„ 1..)

cery is made the subject of, debate in the Houses
