the State, to the individual, and to the community
en masse. It is this consideration which has
recently gained so many proselytes to the efforts now
made for the instruction and assistance of the juvenile
offenders—efforts which are substantially visible' in
the elaborate reports on the subject transmitted by
the Prison Inspectors to the Right Hon. the Secretary
for the Home Department; in the exertions respec-
tively made by Mr. HILL, the Recorder of Birming-
ham, and Mr. CHARLES PEARSON, the Solicitor to the
city of London; in the reiterated supplications of the
sufferers themselves, and especially in those admirable
establishments which have sprung up in different
quarters of the metropolis—the ragged schools and the
reformatory institutions.

Lord BROUGHAM, last evening, formally introduced
the matter to the attention of the Upper House, and
the Noble Lord did so with an emphasis and an
earnestness peculiarly in accordance with the fame
acquired by the labours of his illustrious youth. The
manner in which the question of the punishment of
juvenile offenders was laid before their Lordships was
such as to ensure its impartial consideration by the
Legislature. Both the respectability of the peti-

tioners, for whom Lord BROUGHAM spoke so energe-
tically and feelingly, and the appalling nature of the
calculations contained in that petition, necessitate a
rigid scrutiny on the part of the legislators ; and,
beyond that, the eminence of the man who laid that
petition on the table of that Right Honourable
House, the eminence he has so justly acquired by
the devotion of his splendid abilities to the good of
the people and the dissemination of knowledge, ren-
dered that prayer for the vigilance and generosity of
the Legislature singularly forcible and effective.
For the arguments of the Noble Lord in favour of
some comprehensive reconsideration of the system at
present pursued with reference to criminals in this
country, we refer to our report of the Parliamentary
discussions. Those arguments would of themselves
be sufficient to testify the urgency of the case and
the extreme feasibility of the plan proposed for the
improvement of society, namely, the systematic educa-
tion of the class from which those juvenile offenders
proceed, and the gradual diminution of our prisons
and penitentiaries. At the same time Lord
BROUGHAM availed himself of the opportunity pre-
sented by the occasion of indignantly repudiating the
insinuations which have been continually levelled at
himself through certain indirect aspersions upon the
memorable Society for the Diffusion of Useful
Knowledge, which arose and flourished under his
Lordship's auspices. " While I am," said the Noble
Lord, " as is well known, the warm friend of educa-
tion, there is no inconsistency in my saying that
unless education have a moral and religious direction,
it is to me a matter of considerable doubt
whether to be able merely to read is not productive
of more harm than good !" The combination of
moral and miscellaneous tuition is what is especially
advocated by Lord BROUGHAM and all the other la-
bourers in that vineyard of charity. Having now
been immediately introduced to the notice of the
Upper House of Parliament, and introduced, more-
over, by Lord BROUGHAM, we are sanguine that the
salutary interest felt towards the juvenile• offenders in
the realm may not subside until their condition has
been materially ameliorated.

The Galway election noTv absorbs all the attention
that can be spared from the heart-rending scenes
of misery and destitution which are daily occurring
in Ireland. The candidates are nearly neck and
neck, the last authentic acccunt of the position of
the parties at the close of the second day (Monday),
showing a majority of five for the Government
candidate, the numbers on the gross poll being—
For the SOLICITOR-GENERAL 4BO
FOr Mr. OTLAIIERTT 475
showing that no less than 955 had polled during the
two first days, out of a constituency of little more
than 1,2.00. The election will, however, probably be
protracted to the utmost limit permitted by the law;
which, in Ireland, strange to say, considers five days'
polling as necessary to enable even the smallest con-
stituencies to declare their sentiments, while in
England it has been found that a far greater number
of electors can give their votes in a single day, and
that the locality can be spared from the bustle, con-
fusion, and all the demoralising influences made use
of during the continuance of a contest for its repre-
sentation. What just reason can be assigned for this
difference? If the beneficial effect of the shortening
the period allowed for bringing the electors to the
poll in England is universally admitted, which we
believe to be the case, why should not its advantages
be extended to Ireland also, where the popular pas-
sions are more easily excited, where bribery and
corruption, rioting and disturbance, falsehoods and
forgeries, improper and undue interference with,
personal violence to, and even kidnapping of, voters,
are habitually resorted to for the purpose of altering
the result ? In that country there would be a far
greater necessity for such a change, which would go
far to preserve the peace of the districts, and to make
the return a legitimate one, duly representing the
wishes and feelings of the majority of the electors.
Whatever may be the result of the present contest,
we sincerely trust that the attention of the Legisla-
ture may be directed to the evil, and that the mode of
conducting contested elections in Ireland may,
during the present. session, be assimilated to that now
in force in England. Should this be the case, the
whole of that kingdom will be preserved from scenes
of disturbance and outrage that will other wise most
rertainly take place during the next general' elec-
tion, the period for which cannot be long post
poned.

If ever there was a time when all classes
and 111 parties should have been unanimous
in favour of any candidate brought forward under the
Ministerial auspices, one of the law officers of the
Crown in Ireland, whose especial duty it would be to
bring forward and conduct through Parliament the
various measures necessary for facilitating the sale of
encumbered estates, for improving the law of land-
lord and tenant, and the various other subjects that
have already been decided on, or stated to be under
the consideration of the coverninent with respect to
that country—it is the present. All parties appear
to have acknowledged the anxious desire of the Go-
vernment for the present relief and assistance, and
the ultimate amelioration and regeneration of Ire--
land, the vast importance of the numerous and
complicated enactments that must be passed through
the Senate, and the absolute necessity that a person,
thoroughly acquainted with the present state of the law,
and the changes and alterations therein, which may
be rendered necessary to meet the exigencies of the
country, and to effectuate the intentions of the Le-
gislature, should have a seat in the House of Com-
mons. But it is not merely his official rank or sta-
tion; or his connexion with the Government, that
constitute
religionm of the gTAeatmajo-
rity native oGalway, professing
the claims ofh e
of its inhabitants, he has ever maintained the
highest character for ability and integrity. Prom
the time when he terminated his collegiate career, by
gaining the highest university honour obtainable by
a Roman Catholic—the science gold medal, he distin-
guished himself on every occasion that presented
itself. To such a man opportunities were not long
wanting ; he started into almost immediate practice
as a barrister, and won golden opinions from all who
happened to be in any degree connected with him.
To a sound, thorough, and practical knowledge of his
profession in all its details, he added the most un-
wearied industry and anxious desire for the interests
of his clients, but that zeal never betrayed him
into the slightest deception ; his acknowledged good
faith commanded the respect, while his courtesy and
good temper, his admirable manner, gained him the
good-will, not merely of the court, but of all who
were in any degree connected with him: while the
young barrister ever rejoiced to see the name o
MONArIAN associated with his own on the brief, as
he was then sure of the kindest attention from his
leader, and that he would obtain all the cre-
dit to which he was fairly entitled in the con-
duct of the case. It is not surprising,
therefore, that such a man should have
attained the highest degree of popularity in every
quarter ; and politics apart, there is scarcely a person
who could come forward in any part of Ireland with
a greater prospect of a favourable reception, and yet
we find that in his native county he is pressed to the
utmost by a man comparatively unknown, who pos-
sibly may be a respectable county gentleman, but
who certainly possesses no such claims as those of
Mr. Mortauert to the suffrages of the people. This I

is not the time that Ireland should show its dislike to
the British connexion, or offer any discouragement to
a Government actuated by such kindly feelings
towards it. We trust, ere long, to announce the
triumphant return of Mr. MONAHAN, and that Galway
has been spared the disgrace of rejecting such a man,
solely on account of his not giving in his adhesion
to an impracticable project, and joining in the agita-
tation for the separation of the ties by which the
countries are united and cemented together.

The permanent improvement of Ireland must be
looked for in the judicious development of her agri-
cultural resources. Agriculture is the grand basis
of all national prosperity. The wealth of every
country always springs from the proper cultivation of
its soil. After the art of husbandry has been suc-
cessfully prosecuted for a considerable period in any
state, then, and not till then, do manufactures, and
the other legitimate offshoots of a prosperous system
of tillage, engage the;attention of an industrious and
enterprising people. In most countries where the
attempt has been made to establish manufactures
before the pursuits of agriculture have so far pro-
gressed as to have placed at the command of the
chief proprietors of the land a reasonable redundancy
of wealth, it has generally signally failed. Ire-
land herself, at various times, and in nume-
rous instances, has afforded striking proofs of the
truth of this proposition. The great bane of that
country is, that, owing to different causes, agri-
culture has never been placed upon a sound basis
by the Irish. This is a singular anomaly, consider-
ing Ireland's proximity to England and Scotland,
where the ploughshare has yielded such comparative
abundance. The length of time, too, that the
Emerald Isle has been incorporated with the sister
kingdoms renders the anomaly still greater. The
vast difference between the landed products of the
latter, contrasted with those of the former, may be,
in some measure, accounted for by a consideration of
the distinct characteristics of the races;
but, for the most part, it will be found,
on due reflection, that the agrarian customs
and habits of the Emerald Isle are so opposed
in their main feltures to those of their neighbours,
as very readily to solve the social enigma.
Parliament being on the eve of legislating, with the
view of regenerating Ireland, chiefly by ministering,
so far es human laws can avail, to the development of
her agricultural resources, and especially by the re-
clamation of her waste lands, it would appear to be
both wise and expedient to mould the law as
much as possible in conformity with what has
long and successfully prevailed in this coun-
try. The two most obvious points that demand
the strictest attention for securing to the Irish
the like prosperity enjoyed by Great Britain
are, the nature of the tenure by which farms shall be
held, and the size, minimum and maximum, of which
the same shall, upon the average, consist. Touching
the latter, we have before declared our conviction that
their division into nut less than twenty-five nor more
than fifty acres, is too limited for the object which the
Government should be anxious to compass, the creation
of an independent body of yeomanry, to become the
permanent employers of labour. We remain of the
same opinion. Whatever may be said of the mini-
mum, it would be clearly disadvantageous to limit
the maximum, as suggested by the Ministers. Many
circumstances, as, for instance, the quality of the soil,
the course of cropping, and the contiguity of markets,
might render fifty acres a very eligible size for a
farm ; whereas other circumstances might dishearten
an enterprising capitalist, and preclude him from the
chances of profitable husbandry, if he were
to find himself incapacitated from holding land
exceeding in its average the maximum in question.
A comparison of the advantages derivable from dif-
ferent tenures, in order to determine which should
be favoured in connexion with the Government scheme
for redeeming the waste lands of Ireland, forms too
important a topic to be hastily scanned. We shall,
therefore, revert to this subject on another occasion.

By the Levant mail wo have received Malta journals
of the 6th inst., Constantinople journals to the 27th
ult., and Athens journals to the 30th ult.
The Turkish Government is still pursuing its measures
of reform. A commission of Turkish literati has been
appointed to compile a Turkish grammar and dictionary..
The Malta journals express alarm at the small quantity
of corn in the island, which does not exceed twenty days'
supply. The Greek journals contain no intelligence.

Madrid papers of the 11th have arrived.
The Gaceta publishes the following letter from the
Minister of Commerce to the Political Chief of Malaga,
in reply to the representations of the Junta of that city,
on the subject of the Flores' expcdition:—
~ The expedition against the Equator, projected by General
Flores, so far from having ever obtained the support of the
Government, was blamed by it as soon as it became aware of
its existence. The Government, after having dissolved the
depots, prevented, as I am officially informed, all succours
from reaching the getters-up of the enterprise, and gave or-
ders to the authorities to oppose a project which was neither
conformable to the interests of the nation nor to the good re- j
lations that it desires to maintain with the new states of
America. Not only has it made these amicable dispositions
known to the American republics which have been recog-
nised by her Majesty Queen Isabella 11.. but also to those
that have not yet been recognised, by addressing communi-
cations to that effect, either to our diplomatic agent abroad,
or to the representatives of those republics at Madrid, Paris,
and London. To act thus was to act in accordance with the
generous sentiments of the Spanish nation, with the frank-
intimate the relations with all the countries that
ness and honour that it has always shown in the observance
ftreaties,and with the noble desire that animates it to
and its name. This conduct Laing justly ap-
preciated, there is no reason for alarm and disquietude being
kept up with respect to an event, which, prevented in time,
has.not been able to alter in anyyespect the fraterpity of the
p S mush Government with the republics of Atherica. Corn
ineece and navigation, of which the Government does not
respecto e n
render mores
flag
lost aight,•are secure, and cannot suffer from an incident, the
effects of which the Government has been able to set aside.
Her Majesty the Queen orders me to inform you of this, in
order that you may take measures to calm the fears of the
Junta
of Malaga, and of all other persons. God keep you."
In the Chamber of Deputies, Senor SEGASTI called on
the Government to present to the Chamber the Act of
Succession of FERDINAND VII. and the marriage con-
tracts
oftheUEEN and her sister. The Minister of
Justice declined saying anything on the subject at

present.
It is said by the Herald() that an army of observation

We hare received those of the Paris papers of Wed-
nesday which were published on that day, but, as Shrove
Tuesday is always kept as a holiday, several of the
papers, including the Constitutionnel, the Siecle, and the
Epoque, were not published on Wednesday.
The Journal des Debats publishes in leader type, and
with all appliances to direct to it the special attention of
the reader, the following announcement:—
" A letter from London, of the 14th of February,
says—' Yesterday the Count ST. AULAIRE, the Ambas-
sador of France, had the honour of dining with her Ma-
jesty the QUEEN. Their Royal Highnesses Prince
ALBERT aad the Duke and Duchess of CAMBRIDGE,
were 'present at the dinner, as was the Earl of CLAREN.
DON. On quitling the palace, the Count ST. AULAIRE
went to Lord PALMERSTON'S soiree."
This announcement, so made, was considered in Paris
as an indication that, at least, the personal misunder-
standings between the two Governments were at an end,
and it was rumoured that M. GUIZOT would take an
early opportunity of explaining away in the Chambers
those portions of his late speech which had given such
just ground of offence to the Marquis of NORMANBY.
The Prince DE JOINVILLE is about to proceed to
Toulon to take the command of the squadron fitting out
there, which will, it is said, visit the French colonial
possessions.
M. MARTIN (du Nord) has returned to Paris, but with
his health in such a shattered state that he is unable to
resume his Ministerial duties. . _

Don ENRIQUE arrived at Toulon on tho 14th.

In the Chamber of Deputies, on Wednesday, the AR.
nister of Finance presented a Bill authorising the Bank
of France to issue notes of 250 E, and another regulating
the Transatlantic steam-packets.
A lotter from Marseilles of the llth says—
" There is at this moment in our city more than 600,000
hectolitres of grain, which are daily being sent to the in-
terior. There are, besides, in the quarantine ports of Po-
megtfe and Frioul, in free pratique, from 170 to 180 vessels,
waiting their turn of admission and unloading in the port of
Marseilles "

The imports of grain and flour into the French ports
from July 1 to Dec. 31, 1846, amounted to 2,542,220
hectolitres. In the month of January they were 716,925
giving a total of 3,259,154, of which 2,4;. ,068 entered
by the Mediterranean, 616,795 by the Atlantic, and
205,301 by land.

CITY, QUARTER TO THREE.
The sales of cotton at Liverpool yesterday were 2,500
bales, the market being very dull and heavy. Prices were
%d. to 1/4d., per lb. lower than last week. Shares were very
quiet again.
The position of Southampton as a shipping port is acquir-
ing daily more importance, and the railway is likely to work
some further important changes in the course of our foreign
trade ere long. It appears that the docks formed there are
becoming inadequate to the accommodation of the shipping,
and that the increase in the amount of tonnage entered is
immense, viz., from 158,680 tons in 1845, to 228,777 tons
in 1846. Arrangements have been made with Government
for the erection on the company's lands of a custom-house on
an enlarged scale, and the Royal Mail Steam-packet Com-
pany are to have workshops on a large scale upon the com-
pany's estate, affording, with the dry dock and sheers, facili•
ties unequalled by any port in the kingdom. Even now the
dry dock is insufficient to afford all the accommodation re-
quired by the Oriental Steam-packet Company, and a second
dry dock is to be constructed.
The point of chief importance to the mercantile public
generally is the extension of the South-Western Rail-
way to London-bridge, to meet which, the Dock Com-
pany proposes to secure suitable warehouse accommoda-
tion, with a water frontage, contigunous to the London-
bridge terminus, thus affording the option of housing goods
either at Southampton or in London, the railroad running
past the doors of the warehouses at both extremities. This
is the most admirable appliance of the railway principle that
has yet come to our knowledge, and is, in fact, making
Southampton a sort of new London dock. The company's
office will be at London-bridge, and special orders and mes-
sages will be sent down by electric telegraph.
There are no later ship arrivals today, and the intelligence,
from the Cape of Good Hope, Sec., is of old dates.
The Funds have been higher again to-day, and Consols
have been quoted 91 to 91i- for present transfer, and 91i
for time. At the present time the market is barely so good.
Bank Stock-is marked 2033 to 2041, being a rise; and India
Stock is at 250 i. The New Three-and-a-Quarter per Cents.
are 931 to 3. Exchequer-bills have been quoted Is. to ss.
premium.
Besides the ordinary operations, the Government broker
bought 10,3001. Reduced Three per Cents. at 913/4 for the re-
duction of the Debt, and 9,0001. Three and-a-Quarter per
Cents. at 93% for the Savings' Banks. Money continues
easy in the house.
The Foreign Bonds have been dull, but there is a some-
what firmer market for Spanish, the Five per Cents. being
held at 2514. Portuguese Four per Cents. have realised 34
to %. Mexican Bonds are 221%. Dutch Two-and-a-Half
per Cents, are worth 581/2 3/4.
The Railway Share Market is again rather buoyant, and
the French lines have risen, owing to the improved accounts
from Paris.
