THE RECENT LOSS OF THE
EXMOUTI-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 andt
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. Tha 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 108 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.
Weunderstand 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.

PROTEST AGAINST THE IRISH
POOR BILL.
(From Punch.)
We have seen a document thus headed in the columns
of some of our contemporaries; but not believing in the
correctness of their report, we have been at some pains
to procure the following, which may be relied upon for
its authenticity:—

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.
