LONDON, SATURDAY EVENING. _ AUG UST fi4,

he would have acquired the character of a
great reformer and friend of the people.
But he has not taken this course, and
as we bel:eve he means honestly, we are disposed to
think him right in introducing only such a measure
of practical utility as will be likely to receive the
sanction of the House of Commons.

We think the Tenant L3ague would do much
practical good by turning their attention to the
custom known and acted on in Ulster as the tenant.
right. The conditions of the ULSTER PLANTATION
would seem to us to form the most equitable basis for
legislation upon this subject, and a clear definition of
what these conditions were, and what has been the
custom observed in reference to them would be of
serious ad vantage to the Legislature in the considera-
tion and settlement of the question.
One of our morning contemporaries appears to be
ignorant of the condition of this Ulster Plantation,
and seems to be under the impression that there is no
tenure of land in Ireland differing from the ordinary
tenure in England. We have frequently, through
the columns of The Sun, called attention to the terms
and conditions under which the *confiscated lands of
the north were granted to " undertakers," as the
present landlords were then termed in the several
grants and charters of JAMES I. ; we cited state
papers and charters of 1608 and 1613, defining the
orders and conditions to be observed by the " under•
takers," upon the distribution and plantation of the
escheated lands of Ulster. By these conditions the
tenants were entitled to a large share of the privileges
of the landlords or undertakers. These undertakers
were not to hold these lands for their own individual
profit or advantage, even on pain of forfeiture. The
rights and privileges conferred upon the settlers or
occupiers was determined and recognised by the
House of Lords in the year 1846, in the case of the
Skinners' Company of London and the Irish Society,
in which it was decreed that the Irish Society were
merely the public trustees for the "plantation," and
not for the benefit of any merely private, though
collective, ownerships.

THE FRENCH REPUBLIC.

We have received the Paris journals of yesterday.
It is evident, from the general tenour of the telegra-
phic dispatches detailing the progress of the PRESIDENT,
that his reception in the eastern departments has been
anything but satisfactory to the Imperialists. The
flourishes about enthusiasm, &c., &c., &c., with which
we were indulged during the first days of these jour-
ne3s, have ceased since the detailed accounts of the
PRESIDENT'S reception at the various places at which
he has sojourned, have been published in the journals.
For the first day or two, while the telegraph had the
monopoly of intelligence, these little exaggerations
might be indulged in with safety ; but they are now
no longer useful; since the scene at the ball at Besan-
con ; a scene which the journals of the Elysee endea-
vour, after a most absurd fashion, to distort into a
deliberate scheme of assassination. Really M. CAR-
LIRE should hire a fresh set of litterateurs to invent

his plots of assassination for him, men who
have had some practice in the work, and
who keep probability in view in their
inventions, and it would be well that he should
din into their ears the mot of TALLEYEAND—

Surtout point de Zele: His present employes have
by their zeal spoiled everything. The illoniteur du
Soir, for instance, in order to account for the PAESI..
DENT'S sorry reception at Strasburg, gets up a cock
and a bull story of a conspiracy to assassinate the
PRESIDENT of the Republic, the leaders of which came
from Nancy to execute the plan. If any such con-
spiracy exists, the leaders in it are certainly not Re-
publicans, or, if Republicans, they must be mad, inas-
much as it is clearly the interest of the Republicans
to increase ratber than to decrease the number of pre-
tenders to royalty. To the Republican more espe-
cially is the life of Lours NAPOLEON of importance,
as he is the insuperable obstacle to the restoratiou
of the house of Bouaraorr. The same journal gives
the following account of the reception of the nun-
DENT at Bellort
" The Prince arrived at Belfort at nine o'clock in the
evening. During the whole of his passage from Besan.
con to that place the rain fell heavily, notwithstanding
which a considerable crowd ' had assembled, who wel-
comed him with warm acclamations. The President of

the Republic was met at Belfort by General Megnan,
who commands the division. At the moment of the
arrival of the President a nember of the Socialists of the
place were collected at the entrance of the town, and
who, commencing their manoeuvres, made up for the
scantiness of their numbers by the violence of their
cries. As they appeared inclined to follow the carriage
of the President with their vociferations, the troops
barred their approach."

If their numbers were so scanty what necessity was

there for the intervention of the troops to bar their
approach ? and how could th.,, cries of " a score of
bandits," for the writer afterwards speaks of them as,
amounting in number to no more—how could the
cries, however violent, of merely '° a score of bandits"
be even heard amidst " the warm acclamations of a
considerable crowd ?" M. CARLIER must provide men
who are better up to their business to describe the
visit to Cherbourg ; a repetition of such glaring in-
consistencies will ruin all. The Journal des Debuts,
which in the controversy between Louts NAPOLEON
and the Legitimatists has maintained a cautious neu-
trality, thus sums up the results of the Presidential
journey :
" The reception given to M. Louis Napoleon in
Alsace, as in Franche-Comte, Burgundy, and the Lyons
district, is everywhere very eager, and generally sym-
pathetic, but not marked by what is called enthusiasm.
After so many revolutions this absence of enthusiasm is
not surprising. Who can abandon himself to such a
feeling when all is instability, and when the social state
itself is likely at any day to be called i❑ question? In
like manner, as there has not been unity of thought
amongst the different classes of the population, so has
there been no unity of manifestation towards the Presi-
dent. Three distinct shades may be remarked—the
reception given by the rural population, the reception
given by the towns' people, and that of the bourgeoisie
in balls and banquets. The reception of the rural
communes is invariably cordial, and that of the streets
merely respectful and reserved, except when organized
groups of Socialists hare turned a legal cry into one of
opposition and hatred. The bourgeoisie receives the
President with kindly regards, as one who is at the head
of the party of order and of social conservation. With
respect to those who put forth acclamations of a totally
personal kind, such as ' Vive Napoleon!' or ' Vivo
l'Empereur!' they are evidently in a minority; and it
has been remarked that their ill-timed persistence has
very often caused the cry of 'Vive le President!' to be
changed into that of ' Vive la R6publique.' Such we
take to be, impartially speaking, the true character of
the reception given to Louis Napoleon by the three
classes we have enumerated."

We believe this to be as nearly a just appreciation
of the reception of the PRESIDENT as may be. The
PRESIDENT of the Republic was everywhere well
received, while the supporters of the pretender to an im-
perisl throne were only a miserable and thinly-
scattered minority.
Toe Government has received the following ac-
counts of the progress of the President of the Re-
public by the telegraph :
" STRASBURG, AUGUST 21, FIVE O'CLOCK, P.M.

The President having lett Besancin, at one o'clock
P.M., on the 19th, entered Balfort at half-past eight.
He alighted at the Hotel de Ville, and assisted at the
ball offered to him by the town.
" On the 20th, after reviewing the National Guard and
troops of the line, the President departed for Mulhouse,
where he arrived at two o'clock. A review then took
place at the gates of the city, after which the President
proceeded to the Hotel of the Industrial Society, where
he examined the remarkable productions of that city.
`• At five o'clock he left by the railroad, and reached
Colmar at six o'clock. The fatigue of the journey, how-
ever, prevented him from assisting at the ball offered
by the city.
" This morning the President reviewed the National
Guard and troops of the garrison, and at one o'clock left
for Strasburg, where he arrived at half•past two o'clock.
During those three days the President experienced
everywhere the same rcesption, and was saluted with the
same enthusiasm.
" Alsace, as well as Franche Comte, manifested its
sympathy for him. Everywhere the rural population
hailed him on his passage with respect and gratitude for
the services he has rendered his country.

by the immense majority of the population was both
warm and respectful. Everywhere the sentiments of the
people, who bless the re•establishment of order, were
manifested with the utmost energy. These unequivocal

MONEY and COMMERCIAL NEWS.

CITY, TWO O'CLOCK.

The Cotton Market at Liverpool yesterday cloied
steadily at previous rates. Ttie sales were estimated at
5,000 bales.—The Share NlarkAt was steady and previous
quotations were fully supported.
There would appear from the returns before us t)
have been increased employment last week for the assets
of the Bank of England, for although the circulation
was diminished, this was occasioned solely by the addi-
tion to the Public Deposit+, the advances upon other
securities having actually increased, and to a large
amount. The fact, too, that the other deposits were
rather diminished, is, further proof that money was
finding readier employment. The sum of the precious
metals was augmented. Compared with the previous
week, the changes are as follows--

yester lay afternoon on the principal continental cities
were 11 47 to 50 on Trieste, being. somewhat lower; 25
52i to 55 on Antwerp; 13 104 to 11 on Hamburgh, being
rather higher, and 25 52i:to 571 on Paris, which is much
the same, all these quotations being for ninety days'
date.

The amount of the precious metals exported from
London this week has been large, viz., 925,120 ounces of
silver, of which 813,120 ounces were sent to St. Peters-
burgh, and the rest to Hamburgh, Belgium, and Holland.
Of gold 1,300 ounces have been shipped to Monte Video,
and 3,000 to the Mauritius.

The accounts received this morning from the manu-
facturing districts state that business during the present
week has been active in most articles.
In home Mining Shares there has been an average
business this week, and there has been a constant in-
quiry for dividend and leading mines, and there are
some new concerns before the public. Shares in the
following mines have changed hands during the week:—

Barrier, Trelawney, Mary Ann, Tremayne, Tresavean,
Bedford United, Wellington, South Tolgus, Venton,

ton, Lewis, Tincroft, South Molton, South Plain Wood,
Wheal Crebor, West Caradon, Alfred Consols,
Bishopstone, Montgomery, and Tamar Consols.
The Funds do not quite sustain the highest values of

nevertheless, buoyant, at 96i for Transfer, and 961
for Time. The New Three-and-a-Quarter per Cents.
have realised 988 to 99i. and the Three per Cents. 97
to 97i. Bank Stock has been at the advanced price of

Cents. 33 to 34. Mexican Bonds have been 29} I. Rus-
sian Four-and-a-Half per Cents. have been 968.
