THE NAVAL REVIEW.

Mr. PEACOCKE sited the First Lord of the Admi-
ralty whether the wine and refreshments furnished to
the persons on board the Pacific, at the late naval re-
view, were contracted for and provided at the same rate
as those for the Transit and Perseverance ?

Mr. OSBORNE said the Pacific was chartered by Mr.
Quatermain, at seven shillings and sixpence per
head. The Transit and Perseverance were not so
supplied, but the officer of the mess was told to
provide a cold collation and some of the best sherry that
could be obtained for the Houses of Lords and Com-
mons.. (Laughter.) That 'arrangement was not well
earrid oat. (Hear, hear.) The Himalaya was con-
tracted for at ss. 6d. per head. There was no par-
ticular contract for the Houses of Lords and Commons.
IRISH CONSTABULARY.

Viscount CASTLEROSSE asked the Chief Secretary
for Ireland whether the Government intended to intro-
duce any measure, during the present session, to enable
them to alter the relative proportion in which that por-
tion of the constabulary force charged upon the consoli-
dated fund was at present distributed among counties
in Ireland ; or to apportion the burden of supporting the
supernumerary force upon a more equitable principle
than that which regulates the present system ?
Mr. HORSMAN said a better distribution of the
constabulary of Ireland could. no doubt be male,
but an act of Parliament was required for the
purpose. If the present Irish business was disposed
of in sufficient time, a bill would be brought in during
the present session upon the subject.

Lord Luean-LTl,at's a matter of opinion.
Col. Tulloch=Lord Paumure made no alteration ill
the report, and he (Col. TuHoch) maJe none, at the re^
quest of Lord Paumure.

Lerd Lucan then read that portion of Col. Tulloch's
evidence which he said warranted him in drawing the
inference he had relative to this being a manufactured
report, and said he still was of opinion it was a joint
production ; and, after what had been revealed, that it
was not worth the paperer' which it was written. Misses
and laughter.) He said this report had been drawn up
to secure the temporary ease of the Government, and to
lull the just indignation of the poeple, and to excuse
the Government for sacrificing the finest army that ever
left England. Want of promptitude and ingenuity was.
to be attributable to the authorities at home in not pro-
viding proper supplies to the army, and had the horses
been supplied with a sufficiency of food they would
not have suffered as they had done. The ques-
tion was, who killed the horses ? No doubt if
any one was to blame it was the Minister for
War and the Secretary to the Treasury, who had the
control of the Corareissaliat Department. The noble
lord, after stating that he was at all times accessible to
his officers, and that he did everything he could fur the
comfort of the cavalry, concluded his address.
The Court then adjourned.
The Earl of Cardigan's case will be entered on to-
morrow morning at the assembling of the Court.
