expenditure of ten millions sterling for the purpose
of providing food for the starving population, and
work for the able-bodied labourers—when the English
people have, with one accord, consented to the con-
tinuance of many burdens pressing most heavily on
the national industry, and debarring the poorer classes
of many of their humble comforts, and a subscrip•
tion already exceeding 200,0001. sterling has been
collected by voluntary contributions with the same
benevolent object, it might have been expected
that the recipients of this bounty would be
actuated by feelings of gratitude towards their bene-
volent benefactors, and that they would at least re-
frain from slandering or uttering invectives against;
the Government or the people by whom such exten-
sive liberality has been evinced. It is, how-
ever, with the deepest regret that we find those
who should know better things, who are the ap-
pointed pastors and teachers, and who possess
the most unbounded influence over the people, de-
parting from their proper sphere, and heaping the
most opprobrious epithets on the English Ministry
and English people. Such a proceeding may be
productive of the most mischievous consequences,
not only in its effect upon the minds of the Irish
sufferers, but also on the contributors on this side of
the Channel, who, seeing their gifts slighted and de-
spised, may be disposed to feel less favourably towards
those who appear to be tainted with such culpable
ingratitude, and to refuse to sturdy
.beggars what
would most gladly be extended to more humble sup-
pliants.
We trust, however, that the sentiments to which
we have alluded, and, which are embodied in reso-

lutions adopted at a meeting of Roman Catholic
clergymen recently held at Ballinrobe, and presided
over by the Rev. JAMES M'HALE, are not generally
participated in ; nothing can possibly justify the use
of language such as they have indulged in. What'
has been well termed the anti-Russell mania must
have attained a fearful pitch indeed, when we find
persons who should be the most anxious to allay any
irritation and to induce their flocks to bear with
patience and submission the unavoidable privations
and misery consequent upon the mysterious visitation
by which they have been afflicted, calling on our
SOVEREIGN to dismiss from her Councils those who
have acted with such magnanimity towards Ireland,
and styling them " the heartless and cruel Ministers,
whose policy, unparalleled for indifference to human
life, has brought one of the fairest portions of the
empire to the ♦erge of destruction, and consigned
thousands of the youth of Ireland to a premature
grave ;" and again, "of the alien spirit and alien
feelings exhibited through alien functionaries, in
carrying on the public works of the country, as
affording a melancholy proof of hatred to Ireland
and contempt of its feelings that have characterised
the present, as well as all other alien Ministers."
We should not have noticed this melancholy exhi-
bition were it not that it would be unjust to the
people generally to let it be supposed that. such was
the feeling of a majority, or even of a numerous
class. Those who are deeply afflicted should not
have any necessary aid withheld on account of
the indignation that must naturally be excited by
the perusal of such a document. The "soup" should
not be withdrawn from the famishing poor because
those gentlemen have been pleased to term it
"degrading and demoralising;" nor should other

measures of relief be denied because it is stated
" that they must be a mockery, unless the funds of
the Established Church are devoted to the purpose."
Whatever may be the views of any classes in the sister
kingdom as to the nature of the measures that should be
adopted, however widely they may dissent from the
policy of the Government, that dissent should be
expressed in becoming and temperate language, and
such as might be expected to proceed from the lips of
Christian men. They may be well assured that such
would have a far more beneficial effect, and be more
calculated to attain the desired object, than a tirade
of such senseless violence and vituperation as that to
which we have reluctantly adverted.

The question of secondary punishments and trans-
ortation was again on Monday, in a desultory manner,
brought under the notice of the I-louse of Lords.
Our readers are already aware that Earl GREY took
(bccasion last week, in a speech of considerable length
and ability, to communicate to their Lordships an
important change which the Government had deter-
mined upon making, for the two years next ensu-
ing, in the system of transportation and that
the main feature of the alteration proposed would
consist in retaining prisoners, under the above sen-
tence, in this country, to be, in the first instance,
confined in various penal establishments, conducted
upon a plan better calculated than any hitherto pur-
sued to work the reformation of criminals, and then
to expatriate them for the remainder of their sentences
upon conditions advantageous to themselves and the
community at large. It was suggested, in the outset,
that, before the Government undertook to adopt, as a
general principle, so wide a departure from the long-
established practice of carrying this species of criminal
punishment into execution, they ought to introduce a
Bill for the purpose, and obtain the approbation of
Parliament in its favour. Earl GREY conceived this
course would be highly inconvenient, and that it was
not necessary. On Monday night the objection was re-
newed by Lords BROUGHAM (who announced that
Lord LYNDHURST concurred in his view), STANLEY,
ASHBURTON and ELLENBOROUGIL The force of it
was, however, combated by the Marquis of LANs
DOWNE, Lord CAMPBELL, and Earl GRBY. Upon a
review of the respective arguments, we consider tho
better and more constitutional plan would be to ob-
tain an Act of Parliament. Inasmuch as it will
he laid down as a general rule that, provided the
criminal evinces an exemplary conduct, the period of
his sentence will be commuted to one-half, the pre-
vailing effect of Earl GREY'S scheme will be to
substitute imprisonment for transportatation. The
change intended is, therefore, of a most important
character. This being so, Parliament should be con-
sulted, in order that some security should be had for
uniformity, on the part of the Executive, in criminal
proceedings, even where the alteration mooted is not
originally designed to be rendered a permanent one;
for Governments, as we know, are uncertain in
their duration, and it is not desirable that their suc-
cessors i❑ power should be left at liberty, according
to a variety of individual views, to vary the mode in
which the highest class of secondary punishment shall
he enforced. Punishment, to be effectual, should be
certain, and defined as accurately as possible in pro-
portion to the crime committed ; but, it appears to
us, that this certainty, which is held to be one of the
chief elements of punishment that operate most satis-
factorily in restraint of crime, would be seriously
compromised, were so large a discretion to he suffered
to rest with the Executive as is herein recommended
by the Colonial Secretary—a discretion, be it
observed, not for exceptional cases, but to be exer-
cised with the view of influencing an entire change
in the existing system of transportation. Earl GREY
urges that he means to enter upon the alterations,
which he has outlined to Parliament, merely as an
experiment to last for two years. This period would
assuredly be too limited to give a fair trial to his
scheme ; but, as we mainly approve of his Lordship's
plan, whatever be the period to be fixed upon, we see
no objection to the Senate's being invited to sanction
it as an experimental measure. Not to seek for
this assent would be establishing a precedent that
might hereafter be turned to vicious purposes. An
additional reason why Earl GREY should proceed by
a Bill in this matter is furnished by the discordant
views which it on Monday appeared are entertained
amongst Peers of the highest legal attainments. If
the Colonial Secretary and Lord CAMPBELL be right
as to the position they have assumed, the question
should be set at rest by a declaratory Bill. If
otherwise, special powers should be conferred
by an oriinal Act of Parliament. The sub-
ject is of far too grave a character to allow
of its being summarily disposed of ; it must undergo
a thorough investigation. It is not sufficient to quote
what has been done by former Secretaries of State t
fir they appear to have already taken too much upon
themselves. In conclusion, we quite agree with
Lord ASHBURTON that it would be strangely ano-
malous that the judges should go on, year after year,
passing sentences which the Crown had pre-
determined not to execute. The prerogative of the
Crown must not be unduly strained.

Advices from Constantin4le to the 18th February
have been received.

Oa the 17th an important modification took place in

the Cabinet. The Minister of Finance, NAFIZ Pecue
tendered his resignation, which Was accepted by the
SULTAN. The Councillor of the Grand Vizier, SARIM
EFFENDI, was appointed Minister of Finance, and
elevated to the dignity of Muchin, or Pacha with three
tails. SARIM EFFENDI is considered one of the ablest
men in Turkey, and his nomination to that post must
tend to strengthen the Ministry.
The whole of the corps diplomatique have expressed
their approval of the ccnduct of the Turkish Govern-
ment in recalling its ambassador from Greece. An auto•
graph explanatory letter from King OTPIO had been re-
ceived by the SULTAN, but it was considered that it would
meet with no attention. COLETTI, the Greek Minister, who
has throughout these transactions been the mere tool of
M. PISCATORY, the French Ambassador, hopes to drive
Turkey into a war, in which case he reckons con-
fidently upon the assistance of France, but Turkey will
most probably not go to war. She has ample means
of revenging herself by fiscal measures directed against
Grecian commerce—these she will adopt, and by so
doing inflict more injury on Greece in one month than
she could inflict by hostilities in a year.

Madrid papers of the 2d instant have arrived.

The debate on the Address continued in the Chamber
of Deputies. Senor LUJAN, in the previous sitting, had
attacked the policy of the late Ministers in regard to the
royal marriages, and had been replied to by Senor MAR-
TINEZ DE LA ROSA.

Queen CHRISTINA was to leave Madrid on the 7th.
Senor ISTURITZ has been appointed Ambassador to
the Court of London.

MADRID BOLSA, MARCH 2.—The Three per Cents.
were done at 30i for cash ; the Five per Cents., at 19;
the Debt without interest, at 6; the Coupons, at 17.

We have received the Paris papers of Sunday.
In the Chamber of Deputies on Saturday M. FOULD
developed, at some length, his proposition for expunging
from the great book of the public debt the sum of
11.584,983 francs Three per Cent. Rentes redeemed by
the Caisse d'Arrondissement, or sinking fund, between
July 1, 1833, and Dec. 31. 1846 ; these rentes, both in
capital and arrears, to be annulled on the 22d of June,
1847. The Minister of Finance, in opposing the mo-
tion, contradicted the rumcurs that were in circulation,
to the effectthat the Treasury was unable to pay the halt-
yearly dividend on the Five per Cents. due the 22d inst.
On the contrary, never during the last twenty. six years
had the resources of the Treasury been so abundant.
On the sth of March the cash available amounted to
45,000,000 f., besides 73,000,000 f. in paper, in all
118,000,000 f. The Minister also declared that he had
no intention of raising a loan. The debate was then
adjourned to Monday.
The Journal des Debats states that Queen CHRISTINA
will arrive in Paris on the 15th. The same journal thus
comments on Lord Jonx RUSSELL'S speech on the
Cracow question, in which the Noble Lord characterised
the reiterated protest of the French Chambers, on the
subject of the nationality of Poland as superfluous:—

" For our part we cannot regard as useless that permanent
protest periodically entered in its Address by our Legislature.
It has its object and effect, were it only to prevent the pre-
scription of an inalienable right. We perfectly appreciate
Lord J. Russell's motives in opposing Mr. flume's motion,
for its adoption would require the execution of an Act which
is exclusively within the attributes of the Executive power.
It i 3 of little importance in our opinion, whether England
continue or cease to pay 100,0001. to Russia; but what
is of importance, and what will result from the debate,
is, that England, through the organ of her representa-
tives, energetically protests against the violation of treaties.
France, in particular, must benefit by these discussions, for
they demonstrate to the world that she was not the first to
infringe conventions more injurious to her than to any other
country. Lord Palmerston, on a former occasion, said, in
bolder terms than ever used in France, that if the treaty
were violated on the Vistule, it could be legitimately vio-
lated en the Rhine and on the Po. A day will probably
arrive when the Powers who have despoiled and confiscated
the last vestige of the independence of Poland will curse
that hour of infatuation. But they would have it so.
They have sowed wind, and may possibly reap storms, and, if
so, they can only accuse their own insane avidity."
The Cassini steam-frigate is fitting out at Toulon for
a private mission to La Plata, and is to sail on the 15th.
The scarcity of grain sill continues, and notwith-
standing the sums voted by Government and by the
municipal council, for the relief of the destitute, the dis-
tress still continues. The Journal de la Meuse says—
" A great numbt r of farmers in Champagne expect to
reap in June a certain quantity of early rye, 14 }licit pro-
duces a good quality of bread. Thus, a few months only
separate us from the period so impatiently expected,
when the fruits of the present year will afford us, we
have every reason to hope, an ample compensation for
the privations we now endure."

The fall of one-half per cent., which took place on our
Stock Exchange on Friday, astonished the speculators of
Pans on Sunday ; particularly, as it was said to be founded
on the state of relations of Greece and Turkey, on which not
the slighest feeling of alarm was entertained in France.
Another statement was that the news from London had occa-
sioned the fall ; but except a decline in pricey on the Bourse,
brought about by the manoeuvres of the Bulls on Wednes-
day, nothing in the situation of affairs in France on that day
justified an expectation tba. the London market would be •
tray weakness. " But for this circumstance," says a pri-
vate letter, " the speech of the Minister of Finance, yester-
day, would, from its satisfactory character, have caused a rise
of a half per cent. to-day. As it is, prices cannot be said to
have gone down. The Three per Cents. aro 78f. 30c. buyers."

MONEY and COMMERCIAL. NEWS.

(From The Sun of last Night.)
The sales of Cotton at Liverpool yesterday were about
4,000 bales, including 250 bales American and 250 Surat
for export. Sales, 3,000 bales kmetican at 614 d. to 7'%d.,
20 Pernams at 7%d., 500 Egyptian at 73/4d. to 9d., 500
Surat at 334 d. to 434 d., and 40 Sea Island at 151,0. to 183/4d.
per lb.—Railway Shares were flatter.
The sale of Railway Shares yesterday, by Messrs. Lamond
and Co., went off very flatly, and prices were considered a
shade lower. During the sale, the Count de Montemolin
entered, and seemed much interested by the method of dis-
posing of the property.
The West India mail-steamer has not yet been announced,
bat it will be remembered that she has met with very con-
trary winds.
The loss of the Tiber steamer has occasioned quite a gloom
in shipping circles. though it is a happy circumstance that it
was attended with so little loss of life. Parties well ac-
quainted with the lc cality wilere this unfortunate disaster
has occurred, concur in the statement as to the extreme
danger to which vessels are exposed there, and with the
prevalence of fog, of course that danger must have been
greatly increased.
It may be mentioned as a circumstance which at the
present moment is of some importance, seeing the general
failure of the potato crops, that the distinguised philosopher,
Baron Humboldt, proposes, with the sanction of the Prussian
Government, to carry out a systematic arrangement
of meteorological ob,ervations in Germany, making
available the telegraphs upon the different railways. The
object and the means proposed for its accomplishment appear
to be alike excellent.

We regret to state that the North of England Joint-Stock
Bank at Newcastle has been unable to make up matters, so
as to prosecute its business, and, consequently, that it has
suspended payment at head-quarters. The intelligence of
this event, which was of necessity partly anticipated, reached
town this morning.
The Stock Market has rallied a little this morning, and
the accounts from Paris are considered to be rather more
favourable in respect to the position of the Treasury. Con-
sols have ranged from 89% to 89% for present transfer, and
from 893 to 894 for Account. The scrip of Consols is %
to 1,4 prem., being also a partial rally. Exchequer-bills
have t,alised 3s. to 6s. premium. The New Three-and-a-
Quarter per Cents. have been 91%, but are now 9114%.
Bank Stock is worth 203 to 204.
The Foreign investments have been very steady. Spankh
Five per Cents. realise 22%, and the Three per Cents. 333/.
Portuguese Bonds are merely nominal.

For railway shares the market is dull, but at the same time
rather firmer. We cannot quote an actual improvement in
prices except in one or two instances, the French lines being
most conspicuous in this respect.

COURT OF ALDERMEN.

Yesterday a Court was held for the dispatch of public
business.
The Bishop of Worcester and the Rev. W. CAden,
the chaplain to the R!;zlit Hon. the Lord Ktyor, was
appointed by the Lord Mayor to preach the itpital
mons, and directions were given to apply for Christ's
Church for the occasion.
