DISEASE IN IRELAND.
A paper has just been placed before Parliament;
showing the lamentable condition of the Irish people,
the dreadful maladies which have everywhere arisen
out of the scarcity of food, and the frightful ravages
which have already been made in the population by
diseases of a contageous character. This paper is, in-
iud, a realisation of our gloomiest forebodings ; the
particulars are of the most heart touching description,
and their authenticity is beyond the reach of incredulity.
They are embodied as " Abstracts of the most serious
represen:ations made by the several medical superin-
tendents of public institutions (fever hospitals, intirma-
ries., dispensaries, &c.)in the provinces of Ulster, Munster,
Leinster, and Connau:tht."
These reports are dated during the past February,
the pre,;r,,,.. and counties are given in due succession,
the name of each establlstauem, and or eacu
periiwndent ie givc-n in each instance, while the reports
themselves are brief and emphatic. Of these we shall
transcribe a few at random :
ANTRIM—RAND ALSTOWN—Jaundice and diarrhoea
exist from unsoundness and insufficiency of food.
Breaking out of disease apprehended where destitution
exists.
CAVAN —BELTURBET—Dyspep;is, diseases of alimen-
tary canal, dysentery, and diarrlicea are caused by un-
sound fJed. Cottiers are without even tainted potatoes
for food. Many unemployed poor of the district are in
a starving condition.
MULLAGH —5OO ablebodied men, and an equal num-
ber of women, besides many small farmers, are seeking
employment. Outbreak of fever, frequent in summer
months, and spreads rapidly for want of a hospital.
liflicscoura.-3,060 persons relieved at dispensary
within five months past. 5,000 or 6,000 poor unem-
ployed. Breaking out of disease apprehended in the
spring and summer.
SWANLINB AR. —Several cases of typhus fever have re-
cently appeared; insufficiency of food the cause in some
instances. Fever will break out to a frightful extent in
the event of scarcity of food.
CLARE —NEWMARKET-ON-FERGUS.—A large propor-
tion of poor attacked with colic ; purging and vomiting
after eating bad potatoes ; the entire population of vii
lago living on unsound potatoes.

ease of potato-crop daily progressing. No potatoes in
market for sale.
Conic—BOHM:BOY: KANTURK.—Fever aed diarrlicea
doubled, and attributed to the use of unsound potatoes.
Gastric fever much increased.
CROOKHAVEIC—An immense number unemployed,
without food, clothing, or fuel. Typhus fever and dy-
sentery will become extensive if relief be not afforded.
FE R3IJY.—The increase of fever is so alarming here
that a special meeting of the inhabitants is to be called
for its consideration. A great many unemployed, and
the distress consequent is alarming.
Mecnoom.—Disease has considerably increased during
the last fortnight. Fever certainly consequent on the
use of unsound potatoes.
KERRY —TR ALEE.—The number of fever patients have
much increased. The admissions in January 1845, 16.;
for January 1846,151.
SNEE3I.—The number of patients have increased as
ten to one, attributed to the quality of food.
CAHERCIVEEN.—Fever and diarrhoea more prevalent
than usual, from the use of unsound potatoes.

in `the district. From 150 to 200 unemployed in the
village.

POUT LAw.—A

TIPPERARY —CARRICK-ON-SUlR.—Fever very much
on the increase. Fever and dysentery prevalent in the
district, and attributed to the use of white potatoes, and
uncleanly habits of the lower order of the population.
A very great number of unemployed in the district.

creased, and attributed to unsoundness of food.

the average number being double that of previous
years, owing to keeping patients in their own cabins.

and are attributable to unsoundness of food, the healthy
potatoes being unusually wet andunnutritious this season.
KINGS'--TALLAMORE GAOL.—Potatoes fit for food
will soon be run out.
MEATH—NAvkx.—Diarrhcca and dysentery are more
frequent than usual : may be attributed to unsoundness
or insufficiency of food.

that of last year, attributable to insufficiency of food,
and its bad quality.

complaints, attributable to bad food. A great number
of persons unemployed.
WICKLOW—ANNAMORE.—A good deal of low fever

attributable to bad potatoes_ being used by bakers in
their bread.

the Commission could not possibly have been more ter-
rible or ominous.

RAILWAY TELEGRAPH ',nom MANCHESTER AND LI-
VERPOOL TO LONDON.—It is now determined to fix the rail-
way telegraph from both Liverpool and Manchester to
London, by which information may be transmitted from
London to Manchester or Liverpool, and vice versa, in three
minutes or less! The great importance of such a rapid mode
of conveying information cannot be over estimated, and we
hope that nothing may interfere to prevent the project from
being carried to completi•n without delay. We further hope
that an extension of the telegraphic wires will be made to
Preston, where they can be connected with those fixed on the
Preston andWyre line. Important information from London
Will be then received at Preston and Fleetwood in about
four minutes ! By these means, in cennextion with the pow-
eful steamers which ply from the latter port, the north of
Ireland may be in possession of the earliest possible iota-
ligence from the metropolis of England. T here is little
doubt but ultimately the telegraph will be fixed in all the
important liui in Englaud and Ecotland..—,Lancaster
