Itiddelf. Henry olland, Esq. ; Countess Grey, Hon. Miss

Lord ASHLEY, having taken the chair, said he hoped he'
might be excused from detaining the meeting by an)
lengthened observations, for he had left another meeting in
great haste, and the chair in it vtould remain vacant iii he
could return. But be could not begin the bw.inesi of the
meeting without congratulating them on the very marked
improvement that had taken place in all their arrangements,
and especially as to the regulations in point of time ; and he
hoped that they would see that the efforts t hey had made
and the zeal they had shown had not been altogether thrown
away, for great improvement had been 'made in the circum-
stances of the young females who were the objects of their
benevolence.
Mr. GRAINGER, the Secretary, was then called on to
read the report, which stated that situations had
been obtained through the office during the past year. for
434 persons; that there had been a reduction in the hours of
work ; that still there was a great wont of out-door exercise,
and in the matter of food there was reason to fear, in many
cases, there was a deficiency both in quality and quantity.
Lord DUDLEY STUART, being called on to move the first
resolution, that the report be received, said. it was with great
pleasure that he rose to do so ; for all would agree with him t hat.
the report read was able and satisfactory, and likely, if printed
and circulated, to do much good in furthering the objects of the
Association. It gratified him especially that there had
been a reduction in the hours of toil. Employers them-
selves had been led to see there was a policy in refraining
from overworking those whom they employed. This was
'acknowledged in reference to animals, but much more
must over-fatigue affect the amount of work done by the
human being, whose mind, as well as his body, was inti-
mately affected. The maxim was now being generally re-
ceived, that honesty is the best policy; and in this case that
maxim, he believed, applied, for it was decidedly dishonest
in any person to overwork those whom they employed.
He begged to add to the motion, that the report be also
printed and circulated.
J. TOTNBEE, Eq., seconded the resolution, which was put
and carried.
An amendment was moved to this resolution by a gen-
tlernan in the body of the meeting, that no good could be
ultimately done by the Association so long as foreigners were
employed and ladies had their dresses made by their maids.
Lord ASHLEY could not put it, as the mover was not a
member of the Association.
The Earl of ARUNDEL and SURREY moved that the Right
Honourahle Lord Ashley be re-elected President of the As-
sociation. _ _ _

S. SOLLY, Esq., seconded the resolution, which was car-
ried unanimously.
Lord A.suLET, in acknowledging the honour done him,
alluded to the general movement throughout the kingdom,
to secure for all engaged in labour a portion of each day for
their mental and moral improvement. His Lordship moved
the names of those to be re-elected as vice-presidents, and of
those to form the ladies' committee tor the ensuing year.
Mr. REDMAYNE moved, "That the thanks of the meeting
are due to the medical officers of the Association, for their
efficient services."

••••1•V•Y• • V • ••
The Rev. THOMAS BOODLE seconded the resolution, which
was carried unanimously.
The Hon. Captain Kos moved, and Mr. SMITH seconded,
" That the thanks of the meeting were due to R.D. Grainger,
Esq., the honorary secretary of the Association."
The thanks of the meeting were voted to the Hon. Chair-
man, and the assembly separated.

CORNWALL AND DEVON CEN-

THAL RAILWAY.
A meeting of the shareholders in this undertaking was
held, at twelve o'clock yesterday, at the L9r.don Tavern,
hishopsgate-street. H ;Williams, Esq., was called to the
chair.

The CHAIRMAN, in 07:ening the business of the meeting,
stated that they had called the sharehol&rs together for the
purpose of laying betore them the position an I state of
affairs of the Company. A report had been prepared, and
he would call upon the Secretary to read the same; he would
then be happy to answer any questions that might be put by
the shareholders present.

The SECRETARY then read the report.
The CHAIRMAN then stated, that in order to afforl the
shareholders the power of giving expression to their opinions
on the subject of whether the atfiirs of the Company should
or shvnild not be wound up, they had prepared petitions to
hot h Houses of Parliament.

Mr. 1). W. lANVEY proceeded at some length to comment
on the position of the Company, and pointed out the rea-
-60118 why the Cornwall and Devon Central Railway, in his
opinion, would not participate in the benefits of the proposed
Government measure.

After some considerable time had elapsed. and a warm dis-
cu.sion had taken place, it was announced to the meeting by
a Mr.Clipperton,a solicitor, that he healed the opinion of the
Solicitor-General, to the effect that it would come within the
meaning of the Act. •

On the motion of Mr. Osborne, of Exeter, the meeting ad
journed sine die.

IRELAND.
DISTRESS OF THE PEOPLE,

DURLIN, APRIL 28.—There is no part of Ireland there
distress is more severely felt than in the county of Clare.
In the assize town, Ennis, disturbances are apprehended.
The Clare Journal says—" We understand that a party
of Dragoons have been applied for by the High Sheriff to
'preserve the peace of the town, a large con mile of people
from the surrounding neighbourhood being expected to
march into the town during the day."
The same journal contains the following Kilmurry,
Ibrickane, April 24. =Memorials from about two hundred
poor housekeepers, averaging about one thousand souls, have
been forwarded, one to the relief com►nisioners, and another
to the Lord-Lieutenant, praying for relief. Memorialists, who
are cottiers, on the Ploughland) of Clennagarnane, and Clo-
bannea, in the parish of Kilard, andbarony of Ibrickane, state,
That in consequence of the mysterious affliction of an All-
wise Providence of the potato crop, memorialists (from
the swampy nature of the soil of these localities) have, by the
potato rot, been deprived of all means of subsistence for
themselves and families, and are at present the most miser-
able beings on the face of the earth.' Corroboration has
been given to the statements of the memorialists by the
following gentlemen :—Burton Macnamara, J.P. ; Francis G.
Morony, ; Thomas H. Morony, J.P. ; Thomas Morony,
sell., J.P."

The Marquis of Conyngham and Mr. Westby have sub-
scribed very liberally towards the relief of the destitute people
in Kilkee and other parts of Clare.
The reports from the otherdistress'ed districts, received this
day, are of the usual heartrending descriptions. Some teas -
ties have comparatively escaped the potato disease, for in-
stance Wexford and Kerry, and in both the distress is not at
all so severe as in other districts.
The Commissioners of Public Works, acting under the
Drainag3 Act of the present session, have issued a notitica-
' tion that they are ready to receive loans for the execution of
drainage and other works. The amount required for the pre-
sent year will probably be 200,000/. The sum at present re-
quired for the works in Louth, Aleath. Illonaghan, Cavan,
Tipperary, and other counties, is 92,000/. The maximum
rate of interest is spi .r cent. The security is a first charge
on the lands to Ise drained or improved.
The Evening Post says, " We have great gratification in
announcing that Lord Cloncurry has received a letter from
Mr. Peel, dated Calcutta, March 7, intimating that an addi-
tional sum of 2,0001. has been transmitted to the Bank of
Ireland, for the relief of the distressed lii-li, from the Bengal
Presidency, with an intimation that more money may be ex-
pected from the same benevolent source."

COURT OF QUEEN'S BENCH.
LIBEL CASE-THE QUEEN f. CILUtLEa GAYA); PUFFY.
The Attorney-General was heard in demurrer against a
plea of justification put in by the defendant against an in-
dictment charging him with the publication of a seditious
libel in the Nation newspaper, in the month of November
last.

Mr. Barry and Mr. Holmes replied to the Attorney-Gene-
ral, alleging that the defendant had published the article
complained of in reply to some articles which were published
iA the Herald and Standard newspaper, in London, in which
it was urged that the agitating of the repeal of the union
ought to be deemed high treason, and showing the great
facility which railways afforded for the transmission of troops
to Ireland.
The Court were unanimous in allowing the demurrer for the
Crown.

pensions or weekly allowances, to the aged and infirm, and affording
temporary relief to distressed widows and orphans of Blues. There
are now thirteen pensioners on the funds, which yesterday's election

unities. A petitim to both Houses of Parliament against the Cha-
ritable Trusts Bill was unanimously adopted. The buslaessof the
