RETIREMENT FROM THE ARMY.

Mr. GOURLEY asked the Secretary of State for War if
it was correct that field officers of the army who had
utind 9.ablif-x42Y,I9.4APgAIi,e L. 411 valovi thcir commis.

Mr. WIMPIELD BAKER asked the Secretary of State
for War since arrangements were about to be made by
which quartermasters were not to be granted to regiments
of militia, how the duties of such an officer were to be
performed during the times of training, and how they who
performed them were to be remunerated.
Mr. CARDWELL said it was proposed that the duties
should be discharged by the adjutant and assistant guar-
master-sergeant. They would be remunerated according
to the militia regulations.
THE CENTRAL HALL.

Mr. ARTHUR GUEST asked the Chief Commissioner of
Works whether he intended to make provision in the
estimates for completing the decoration of the Central
; and, if not, his reasons for not so doing.
Mr. AYRTON said the estimates would be prepared and
until they were laid upon the table it was unusual to ask
what would be their contents. He had no authority from
her Majesty's Government to say what their intention
would be in preparing the estimates with regard to the
completion of the central hall, that would be dealt with in
the estimates.
PATRONAGE OF THE ARMY.

Colonel STUART KNox asked the Secretary of State for
War whether he had now the right to interfere with the
command, discipline, and patronage of the army, or was
such power, as it formerly was, expressly excepted in
the wording of the warrant appointing the Secretary of
State.

Mr. CARDWELL replied that the command, discipline,
and patronage of the army were in the hands of the
Commander in Chief. As he had previously stated he
was responsible for
.the approval of every appointment
that was made, at the same time it must be understood
distinctly that the patronage of the army did not rest
with the Secretary of State. It was entirely independent
of any political or personal influence on his part. '
HANWELL ASYLUM.

Mr. Cnoss asked the Secretary of State for the Home
Department whether the Commissioners in Lunacy
made any special inquiry into the cases of Santi
Nistri, a pauper lunatic in the Hanwell Asy-
lum, and Rees Price, in tre Carmarthen
Asylum, who recently died from broken ribs and other
injuries in these institutions ; and if so, whether there was
any objection to their reports being laid upon the table of
the House.

In reply to Mr. Liddel.
Mr. BRUCE said he should not be able to go on with the
bill until after Easter.
THE BEVERLEY BRIBERY PROSECUTIONS.
In reply to Mr. Bouverie,
The SOLICITOR-GENERAL said it was quite true the record
had been withdrawn and the trial put off, but it had been
occasioned solely by the fact that there would not be time
to go on with the trial at the present assizes. He had a
letter from Mr. Baron Cleasby to that effect. He should
have no objection to try the case in Louden if it was so
agreed.
PBESERVATION OF PEACE (IRELAND) BILL.
On the motion for reading the bill a second time,
Mr. G. MooRE rose, and moved that the bill be read a
second time that day six months. He said the first instal-
ment of legislation with the view of governing Ireland
from an Irish point of view, was contained inkthe Irish
Church Bill, the second in the release of some of the poli-
tical offenders, and third in the Irish Land Bill. He
considered the present proposal as an outrage upon com-
mon sense. The action of the Executive was calculated
to prejudice, as far as it was possible to prejudice, the
public opinion Ireland agaidst the object they had in view,
as well as the caurse they were pursuing. The bill, under
the pretence of of protecting life and property, sought
to establish little- less than than personal government in
Ireland.
Mr. CALLAN seconded the proposition. He believed the
Government had sufficient power already to suppress
agrarian crime if they only properly used it.
Mr. NEWDEGATE assuredthe House that Fenianism
was
extending, and it was none too soon that the executive
shoiild take some action as to the use of a large supply of
arms. Arms had during the last few months been
stealthily introduced into Ireland, and for what
purpose the House might judge. As to the measure
itself, it was a feeble copy of the Insurrection Act of 1833.
He could not express the strongfeelingth at the measures the
Government had brought forward to pacify Ireland had
created in his mind. He could only see error in all that
had hitherto been done. They had brought forward one
measure which, in effect, was saying we dare not maintain
Protestantism—(hear, hear)—and with respect to the
Land Bill, why, the great effect of it woufd be to abolish.
altogether the agricultural freeholder in Ireland. It ap-
peared to him that the real object of the Government in
bringing forward the measure was to establish
the feudal tenure in that country—(oh, oh, and
hear, hear.) It had been said that the
exertions of the Government were directed to assimilating
the law of Ireland with that cf England ; but up to the
present time he had seen nothing of the sort, and he did
not think that under present circumstances he ever
should.
Mr. SANDERSON said he felt deep regret that the state
of Ireland had rendered it necessary for her Majesty's
Government to bring forward such a measure as that now
before the House. He quite agreed with the hon. gentle-
man who had just sat down ; he quite agreed with him that
recent legislation had brought about the present
state of affairs. He had further listened with
the hope of hearing him state his real opinions on the
matter, but he did not. His (Mr. Sanderson's) opinion
was that legislation had done a good deal,
but the real thing was that for years there had
been a contest going on between landlord and tenant
in Ireland, as to who the property belongs. He readily
admitted that the tenants had some right on their side.
(Hear, hear.) But the right of landlord and tenant had
so got mixed up, that there really was a difficulty of saying
as to whom certain properties really did belong. A demand
had been made that certain improvements should be made
by the landlords, but he knew for a fact that landlorde
could not carry out these improvements be:muse the cost
of so doing would exceed the fee simple of their estates.
(Hear,hear.) He knew, as an Irish landlord, that if he had
done all that was required by his tenants, he should not
have been in that house. (Laughter.) He should give
the measure his cordial support, and in the event of its
not proving sufficient, be hoped the Government would
come forward again before the end of the session. The
hon. gentleman then detailed cases of night visitations, in
one of which he said a farmer was on one occasion
visited by a pasty, who not only pulled him out of bed and
made him swear to give up his farm in favour of a
former possessor, but they actually made him pay their
expenses back so Tipperary. (Loud laughter.) He had
received a threatening letter, and it showed a peculiar de-
velopment of the Irish mind, the letter went on to say;
but if he did not give a certain tenant notice, he (Mr.
Sanderson would be shot ! but if the writer could not
shoot better than he could spell, he did not think he stood
in much danger, as he spelt balls " bawles." (Laughter.)
If that coercive measure were the only measure which Go-
vernment intended to bring forward for the pacification of
Ireland, he should despair, and he should have no hope
But they had introduced the land measure which asked
from the landlords of Ireland the sacrifice of many of
those rights which they had always thought and believed
to be inherent in the possession of property. He believed,
however, that the measure would in the end satisfy and
pacify the country.
Colonel W. PATTEN observed that he had gone pretty
narrowly into the state of crime in Ireland. He had looked
at it in its different forms, and had come to the conclusion
that the state of Ireland was more terrible and horrible
than it appeared. He did not believe that in any period
was there co much danger to life and property, and the
condition of the country never so entirely represented the
reign of terror, which existed at the time of the French
Revolution, as it did at present. He should support
the measure brought forward by the Government, but he
could not help saying that if they had exercised a little
more decision and firmness before hand, much of the
present troubled state would have been prevented.
The debate was continued by Mr. Maguire Dr. Ball, Mr.
Horsinan, &c.
On the motion of Mr. DOWNINO the debate was adjourned,
