DISSENTIENT.

1. Because the law, giving to the destitute a claim for
relief, encourages a notion that it is the duty of some-
body to provide for them; and extravagant hopes will
inevitably lead to extravagance.
2. Because the Irish people are constitutionally given
to starvation, and an interference with national habits
cannot be desirable.

3. Because the tendency of the Bill is to increase the
distress of the landlords while attempting to relieve the
distress of the whole people.
4. Because the Bill, having been framed under an
urgent necessity, was framed in a hurry; and as nothing
done in a hurry is done well, nothing ought to be done
when an urgent necessity demands it.
5. Because it will ruin the independence of the poor in
Ireland, by giving them something to depend upon.

THE RECENT LOSS OF THE
EXMOUT/I.—OFFICIAL REPORT.
The report of Lieutenant Ramsay, the Government
Emigration agent, relative to the condition of the Ex-
mouth, wrecked, with great loss of life, on the coast of
Islay, received on Saturday, contains the following ad-
ditional particulars:—
The Exmouth (although an old vessel—built at Sun-
derland in 1818), was in perfect state of repair, and
underwent a thorough survey by Lieutenant Ramsay and
an experienced shipbuilder. She was properly fitted out
for emigrants, the aggregate number of superficial feet
in the several compartments set apart for steerage and
intermediate passengers being 1,675. She was well pro-
visioned, and was supplied with three suitable boats, with
every requisite for their use, and two life buoys.
It gives the names of the passengers (most of whom
were middle-class farmers, their wives, and families, and
possessing property). The numbers were—Male emi-
grants, 74; female emigrants, 62; male children under
fourteen, 29; female children under fourteen, 34; infants,
9 ; cabin passengers, 3 ; master (Captain Booth), 1;
crew, B—Total number drowned, 220.
The spot where the ship was wrecked was on the
north-west part of the island of Islay. A gentleman
writing says :—" The vessel was smashed almost the in-
stant she struck. It was on a point of a narrow gullet,
deep, dark, and yawning. Nothing but iron-bound
rocks, 80 to 150 feet high. The fragments of the wreck
(and fragments they truly might be called) were driven
into the chasm, where, mixed with dead bodies, they
were tossed and kept in wild commotion by the violence
of the wind and waves for days. A more harrowing
sight was never witnessed."
By the last accounts received from the island, it ap-
pears no fewer than NS bodies had been recovered ; they
were hooked up out of the gullet by men who were
lowered by ropes from the summit of the rocks. Most
of them were women and children, who were entirely
naked ; they were dreadfully mutilated, some without
faces, others without heads or limbs. They were wrapped
in sheets by two gentlemen named Campbell, who saw
to their decent interment in a beautiful spot near the
point where the mournful event occurred.
We understand her Majesty's Government have been
pleased to notify to those gentlemen their sense of such
meritorious example and exertion, and to add a gra-
tuity to the men who have been engaged in recovering
the bodies.

The public attention has seldom been directed to a.
subject of greater importance, or of deeper interest to
all classes of the people, than that which was on Fri-
day- brought before the Meuse of Commons by Mr.
Ewa.ar. The question as to the manner in which
the revenue of the country shall be collected;
by what means the enormous sums annually
payable. for interest on our national debt shall I
be provided, and the heavy expenditure neces-
wiry for the support of our national establish-
ments, ifor the efficient working of our military,
naval, e.nd civil services, satisfactorily defrayed,
Involves considerations of 7ao ordinary magnitude. It

AMENDMENT (NO. __•)
The cross-examination of Mr. Bide, of Yeovil, was resumed
this morning, his evidence was entirely confined to the
details of local feeling of the inhabitants of Yeovil, and the
mode in which signatures to the petitions of the opposing
companies had been obtained in that town.
Mr. Micholetts, solicitor, residing at South Beverton,
Somersetshire ; A. Acland, Esq., sen of Sir T.D. Acland, Bart.,
residing at Dorchester; W. Stevens, Esq., merchant, of Brid-
port ; and Mr. Moore, Mayor of Exeter, gave evidence in
favour of the Great Western schemes.
The Committee adjourned till twelve to-morrow.

GROUP XVIII.

CHELTENHAM AND OXFORD.
isowszow, oxi-ortD, AND CRELTENHAZ
DECISION.

- -
The Committee on this group assembled this morning at
twelve o'clock; the Earl of Lincoln in the chair, with Mr.
M. J. O'Connell, Sir W. James, Mr. G. Smythe, and Captain
Jones.
The Earl of LINCOLN said that they ~ould proceed to con-
sider the two great competing lines before them, so that the
room must be cleared.
On the re-admission of the parties, the CHAIR3IAN stated
that the Committee had decided that the preamble of the
Cheltenham and Oxford Railway Bill was proved—(this is
the broad gauge line)—and that the preamble of the Lon-
don, Cheltenham, and Oxford Bill—(the narrow gauge line)
—was not proved.
In giving this intimation the NoBLz CHAIRMAN said that
the Committe, in coming to this decision, lad required
that in the event of a narrow gauge line being hereafter
sanctioned to Oxford, that the Broad Gauge Company would
„allow the North-Western Company to lay down a line if
the Railway Commissioners should intimate that it was
necessary, after the question of the mixed gauges had been
decided by experience. His Lordship also stated that
the Committee required the insertion of a very strin-
gent clause to protect the inhabitants of Cheltenham
from the inconvenience which was apprehended from the
alteration of the level of the water in that town.
It was intimated, on behalf of the Great Western Com-
pany, that they were quite ready to accede to such a clause,
and it was agreed that time should be given for its prepara-
tion, and that the clauses should be proceeded with on Wed-
nesday morning.

EXCISE LAWS.

Mr. EWART presented a petition numerously signed
by wine and spirit dealers, praying for a revision of that
part of the excise law which prohibited the sale of more
than two gallons of spirit by retail ; also a petition in
favour of the Health of Towns Bill.
Ordered to lie on the table.
Mr. WARD moved that the Committees on public
and private Mils have leave to sit to-morrow.
Agreed to.
Lord J. MANNERS moved an address for copies
of the correspondence between the Lord Primate of all
Ireland and Sir Robert Peel, relating to education in
Ireland in 1845 ; and also between the Lord Primate
and Lord John Russell, on the same subject, in 1847.
Agreed to.
PUNISHMENT IN THE ARMY.
Major LAYARD wished to put a question to the
Secretary at War respecting the death of John Rad-
cliffe, late a private in the 75th Regiment. The circum-
stances of the case, which he gathered from Saunders's
News Letter, were these :—" The man Radcliffe was
charged with shooting at his sergeant-major, but it
would seem that the man fired with a blank cartridge.
Nevertheless, Colonel Halifax, the commander of the
regiment, made a severe order of punishment, and the
man, in consequence, cut his throat with a razor. The
jury that sat upon the coroner's inquest returned the
following verdict :—" We find that the deceased came
by his death in consequence of having inflicted a
wound upon his throat while labouring under
temporary insanity, produced by the severity of the
order made by Colonel Halifax." The order alluded to
in this verdict, was to the effect that the hair of Radcliffe
was to be cut close, that he was to be kept in strict
confinement, and if any man spoke to him he was im-
mediately to be put in confinement. He was to be
paraded before his comrades, and then marched to Ath-
lone, to take his trial before a district court-martial.
Now the question he wished to ask was, had the Horse-
Guards received any report upon the subject?
Mr. FOX MAULE said Colonel Halifax was a gen-
tleman of high military standing and honour, and a man
suite,] in every respect to be placed in command of a body
of men. Radcliffe, who was a private in the 10th Hussars,
fired at his sergeant-major, not with a blank cartridge,
as stated by the Hon. and Gallant Member opposite, but
with ball, and Colonel Halifax being naturally jealous
of the honour and anxious to maintain the high cha-
racter of his regiment, made the order in question.
From the inquiries he had made, however, he did not
think that under all the circumstances, the man com-
mitted suicide in consequence of the order, for on a
former occasion, after he had been found drunk upon
the march, he made an attempt upon his life; and on
another occasion, while anticipating the. result of bad
conduct, he threatened to put an end to his existence.

DURKEE'S GREEN MOUNTAIN VEGE-
TABLE OlNTMENT.—Prepared from a vegetable peculiar
to the green mountains of Vermont; the astonishing properties of
which were first discovered by the Aborigines, and the knowledge of
its preparation disclosed to the present proprietor, who, after wit-
nessing for more than twenty years its wonderful effects in SUBDU-
ING INFLAM WATORY ACTION, and the extraordinary cures pro-
duced in Gout, Rheumatism, Scrofulous Affections, Ringworm, Piles,
Bronchitis, Inflammation of the Eyes, Swelled Breasts, Sore Nipples,
Chilblains, Scalds, Burns, and old and inveterate Ulcers, determined
to introduce it as a public medicine.
Having received high testimonials from the Surgeons of the Army
and Navy, ef-the important cures effected by this Ointment, together
with the immense sale it has obtained in the United States, the Pro-
prietor has considered it a duty to extend its use to Great Britain,
and has appointed Messrs. H. Preston and Son, wholesale Drug-
gists, 94, Smithfield Bars, London, sole wholesale Agentr, to whom
the Ointment is consigned. It is also sold by the respectable Che-

MARKET NEWS.-( YESTERDAY.)

CORN EXCHANGE.

Very limited supplL s of English Wheat have been
received up to our market this week, yet several of
Monday's unsold samples were on offer. Owing to the
immense arrivals of fUreign, the demand for all kinds of
Wheat of home produce was excessively dull, and
scarcely any sales were effected, notwithstanding the
factors offered all qualities at a decline on Monday's
currencies of fully 5s per quarter. This makes a total
fall from the highest pob.t or not less than THIRTY SIX
SHILLINGS per quarter! Upwards of 50,000 quarters of
foreign Wheat having 'come in, that an tole was very
dud, and full 4s per qu,rier lower than on Alen day
last. Barley—the supply of which from abroad was
tolerably good—sold heavily, at a deane of from is to

2s per quarter. In Malt, next to nothing was doing, at
late rat,s. The Oat trade was very heavy, and prices
reeed,d is to 2s per quarter. titans were a mere drug,
and quite 2s lower, while Peas and Indian Corn were 2,
cheaper. Flour was otr,ing on lower terms.

Our market being but moderately supplied with
Beasts (the quality of which was very inferior), and the
attendance of buyers somewhat numerous, the Beef
trade was firm, at fully, but at nothing quotable beyond,
Monday's prices. There were on offer 350 Beasts, TBO
Sheep and Lambs, and 83 Calves from Rolland and
Germany; as also, 200 Scots from Scotland. Tlxi.einututionn-
hers of Sneep were rather limited; hence the
trade was steady, at late rates, and at vtluch a good
clearance was effected. Limns moved i.ff freely, but
the hightst quotation for the best Down qualities-did
not exceed 6s Per 81bs. The sale for Calves, though the
supply was good, ruled firm, at full currencies. In Pigs
very little was doing. Mileh Cows were heavy, at from
161 to 181 each, including their small Calf.

IRISH LANDLORDS.

Sir D. NORREYS wished to know whether the No-
ble Lord would have any objection to comply with the
following motion :—On going into Committee of Supply,
to move that there be laid before this House so much of
the correspondence or reports of the inspectors under the
Act 10 Vic. c. 7 (with the name, rank, and residence of
the parties referred to), as sustains the statements made
by the Commissioners of Relief in their third report,
condemnatory of the conduct of committees, or of indi-
viduals in carrying out the provisions of the said Act.
Lord J. RUSSELL could not hold out to the Hon.
Baronet that he should consent to give the name and rank
of the parties. The Lord Lieutenant had dirt cted that
extracts should be made from the various reports, ire-
pueming the conduct of magistrates and others ; and
according to the replies he received the Lord-Lieutenant
would determine what course he would adopt.
Sir D. NORREYS emphatically, and with much ex-
citement, asked the Noble Lord if he thought that the
Irish nation would be satisfied with such a reply?—
(Cries of " Order.") He appealed to the Speaker
whether he was or was not in order.
Tim SPEAKER was understood to say that the Hon.
Baronet was not in order.

MARLBOROUGH-STREET.

James Hunter, a well-dressed man belonging to the
swell mob, was charged loy Mr. Ge,,rge Mount. No. 8,
Broadway, Ludgate-hill, with picking his pocket of a
pocket-book..
_ _

It appeared that on the previous night the complainant
was standing oppo ite the royal entrance of her Ma-
jesty's Theatre, endeavouring to catch a sight of the
Queen as she left the house. The prisoner, who ap-
peared to be fresh from the country, placed himself be-
hiod complainant, and entered into conver-
sation with:him. Complainant, however, did not much
like the appearance of the prisoner, and kept a sharp
eye upon has movpments. Complainant shortly after
felt the prisoner's hand fumbling at his coat pocket,
whereupon he turned sharp round to the prisoner, who
in the most unconcerned manner possible asked him it
the Queen was coming. Complainant did not answer
him, but walked away some littte distance from where
he had been previously standing. On looking round he
saw the prisoner close behind turn dodging his movements.
Complainant then stood still for a few minutes, when
he felt the prisoner take the pocket-book from his cost
pocket. Be turned quickly round and confronted the
prisoner, who had dropped the book on the ground. He
then taxed him with the robbery, and having called a
constable. gave him in charge.
The prisoner denied the charge, an-I said that he was
a very re,p, ctabie tradesman: but, unfortunately fur the
prisontr, there were several constables pr. sent who
proved that he had seen repeatedly convicted on similar
charges.
Mr. HARDWICK committed him for trial.
