witness, even by those most favourable to
the Act of 1844." The Committee declare
that nothing short of absolute necessity could justify
that letter; but, " not relying with any confidence on
either of the remedies (viz., a sale of Consols and a
limitation of discount) proposed by the Bank, as
likely to have proved safe or effectual," they express
their approval of that letter.
The principles on which the Act of 1844 are based
are discussed, and they clearly prove that " the effi-
ciency of the circulation is not identical with its
money amount," and the " inapplicability of the same
rule to periods of favourable] and of adverse foreign
exchange. . . The Act of 1844 applies the same rule
in both cases." The " self-acting regulator" is, there-
fore, quite inadequate to provide for all the exigencies
that might probably arise.
The Committee then considered " some very im-
portant results attending the new banking system,
which appeared to have produced very serious results
to the commercial interests." These are " the
freedom from responsibility in the issuing depart-
ment," and the liberty to manage the banking
department on the principle of a private bank." And
"the unexampled fluctuation in the rate of discount
since the Act of 1844." Previous to 1839 that rate
had never exceeded 5, or been less than 4 per cent. ;
and although it rose for some months, in 1839, to 6
per cent., it was again reduced to 5 per cent. in
January, 1840, and remained, as before, between 4
and 5 per cent., till after the passing of the 7th and
Bth Victoria, cap. 32. From that time the fluctua-
tion has been exceedingly great, amounting, in a
single year, to as much as 61 per cent., the rates
charged by the Bank of England exhibiting a melan-
choly contrast to the charges of the Bank of France
during the same period, which never at any time ex-
ceeded 5 per cent.
The great length of this admirable report, and the
importance of the remedial measures suggested by the
different witnesses, render it impossible to reduce our
observations within the limits of a single article ; we
shall, however, take an early opportunity of showing
how completely it overturns the various theories on
which that most unwise and impolitic law is founded,
which "materially aggravated the panic," and the
suspension of which was essential to the safety of the
nation and the " convertibility of the bank-note," for
which so many evils have been deliberately and ad-
visedly encountered.

We were yesterday forced to conclude our re-
marks on the Irish landlord-and-tenant question
before we were able to point out what we conceive
to be a grave error in reference to this subject,
which appeared in the columns of a morning contem-
porary, viz.—" That land is not, by the law of Eng-
land or Ireland, considered as of necessity the subject
of a trust." What the force or use of the words "of
necessity" in this sentence can be we are at a loss to
divine ; it is not essential to our purpose to show that
land is of necessity the subject of a trust—if we can
establish the fact that a portion of the land of Ireland
has been actually granted in trust, in all due form
of law, we shall have succeeded in the end we had in
view in noticing the mistake of our contemporary—
the establishment of our own accuracy.
We shall pass over the moral trusteeship implied
in the social compact, and which in faro conscientie
should be sufficiently binding on an honest landlord,
and ask our contemporary to take the trouble of ex-
amining the "Articles" of the " Ulster Plantation."
He will learn from them that a special trusteeship
was annexed, by a public Act of the State, to the
grant of the confiscated estates in the north of Ire-
land, comprising the greater portion of six counties.
We have frequently through the columns of this
journal cited portions of the orders and conditions
contained in these "Articles," in which it was most
distinctly and stringently laid down that these lands
were not conferred for the private profit of any indi-
vidual or corporation, but, in the emphatic words of
the official document itself, "to do service to the
Crown and Commonwealth."
This document printed and issued in 1608, under
the authority of the KING and the Lords of the Privy
Council, goes on thus---" And forasmuch as many
persons being ignorant of the conditions whereupon
Lis MAJESTY is pleased to grant the said lands, are
importunate suitors for greater portions than they are
able to plant, intending their private profit only, and not
the advancement of the public service, it is thought
convenient to declare and publish to all his MAJESTY'S
subjects the several quantities of the proportions Ns hich
shall be distributed, the several sorts of undertakers,
manner of allotment, the estates, the rents, the tenures,
with other articles to be observed, as well on his
MAJESTY'S behalf as on the behalf of the undertakers,
in manner and form following." This document will
be found in " II irris's Hibernica," Part 1., p. 63. See,
also, Appendix to the Skinners' Appeal to the House
of Lords (decided in 1846), p. 31, and the Irish
Society's Answer.
We cannot conceive that any person, after examin-
ing these state documents and charters, will seriously
contend that the landlords or " undertakers " of these
lands are anything more nor less than public trustees
fur the purposes of the state. They are but the
Kist's stewards to carry out his MAJESTY'S intention
in reference to the colonization of Ulster ; no abso-
lute right of ownership has been conferred on them ;
they have no right to turn to their own private use the
profits and advantages intended for the general body of
the setthrs, and by assuming that right they would, in
our judgment, be as much guilty of a breach of trust
as any other trustee created by the ordinary process
of law, who should convert to his own private pur-
poses the property of his cestui que trust.
Tnis may be considered strong language in refer.
ence to the rights of landlordism in Ulster, but it is
forced upon us by the conditions and written evidence
of a publicly ratified grant from the Crown of
England. Under the terms of this grant the for-
feited lands were parcelled cut to three classes of
undertakers or landlords in certain graduated pro-
portions. The first class, who were to be English
or Scotch undertakers, received a proportion of two
thousand acres, and were bound to plant their lands
exclusively with English and lowland Scotch tenants„
The second class, who should be persons who bad
served the Crown in any civil or military capacity in
Ireland, received one thousand five hundred acres,
and might plant their lands indifferently with native
Irish or British tenants—of course being Protestant.
The third class received one thousand acres, and
might be natives of Ireland, but had to pay double
the amount charged to the English and Scotch under-
takers. By the twelfth Article promulgated by King
JAMES and his Privy Council, the English and Scotch
undertakers were bound " not to demise any part of
their lands at will only, but to make certain estates for
years, for life, in taile, or in fee simple" By Article
13 "no uncertain rent shall be reserved by the
said undertakers, but the same shall be expressly
set down without reference to the custom of the

country, and a proviso shall be inserted in their
letters patent against cuttings, cosheries, and other
Mill exactions upon their tenants." The second

class of undertakers were bound to make certain
estates to their tenants, and reserve certain rents,
and forbear Irish exactions. The third class were
also bound to make certain estates for years or lives
to their under-tenants, and forbear Irish exactions.
These are the conditions upon which the confiscated
lands of Ulster were conferred upon the forefathers of
the present proprietors, and for the purpose of enforcing
a due observance of the duties and conditions imposed
they were strictly bound by the terms of the third
general article, which runs thus—" That every under-
taker, before the ensealing of his letters patent, shall
enter into bond or recognizance, with good sureties,
to his MAJESTY'S use, in the office of his
MAJESTY'S

Chief Reroeinbrancer in England or Ireland, or else

before two of the Commissioners to be appointed for

the planation, to perform Me aforesaid Article., ac-
cording to their eeveral distinctions, &c., &c. ; and
making of certain estates to their tenants, in this man-
ner, viz., the undertaker of the greatest proportion
to become bound in four hundred pounds, of the
middle proportion in three hundred, and of the least

proportion in two hundred pounds." Since the days of
JAMES there has been no change made in the condition
of the plantation as contained in the " Articles" from
which we have made the above extracts. Hence,
since it is clear that the original grantees in the time

of JAME?, who took no absolute ownerships, were
bound to grant fixed and certain estates to the plan-
tition tenantry, the same obligation follows and at-

taches to their successors down to the present day,

end that the " plantation tenant" of Ulster is now 11-3's

gaily entitled to a fixed and certain estate in the soil
by the same right which gives title to the landlord.
In some parts of the north these rights of the tenant
are partially recognized, and wherever the tenant
right is to any extent acted on, it is admitted to pro-
duce the most beneficial and salutary consequences.
And those rights and privileges which JAMES, in a
spirit of narrow bigotry, would confine to a favoured
few, we should be glad to see extended by our Gracious
QUEEN in the spirit of a more civilized age and a
more enlightened liberality to every subject of her
MAJESTY.

THE FRENCH REPUBLIC.

We have received the Paris journals of yesterday.
The PRESIDENT was to ,leave Paris yesterday for
Cherbourg, where he will review the fleet on the 6th
and 7th.
It is said that there is a split in the PRESIDENT'S
Cabinet, and that General D'llAuTrour. and M.
BAROCIIP, who do not approve of the course proposed
to be adopted by their colleagues in reference to the
extension of the PRESIDENT'S term of office, are about
to resign. A Cabinet Council was held on Sunday,
and when it broke up. the PRESIDENT sent to Berlin
suddenly to demand the immediate presence in Paris
of his friend M. DE PERSIGNY.
The Duchess of ORLEANS has written to M.
Tniuus and to Count MOLE, requesting their advice
and protection for her children. M. TRIERS has
frankly consented to become the friend and adviser of
the Duchess, but Count MOLE, who has for some
time past been intriguing both with the Elysee and
Wiesbaden, refuses to commit himself.
The Count of CHAMBORD left Wiesbaden on the
31st ult. Endeavours have been made by his partizans
to represent him as free from the vices of his race. It
would appear, however, that he is quite as bigoted
and quite as priest-ridden as his grandfather. It
seems that during the time he was staying at Wies
baden a subscription was set on foot for the repair of
a climb, to which at first it had been un-
derstood that the Count DE CHAMBORD would
contribute. As the church, however, was a
Protestant church, his confessor forbade him
to subscribe, and the faithful son of Rome at
once obeyed the orders of his confessor. The
knowledge of this fact will militate materially against
his chances in France. The French people will never
again submit to the government of the confessional.
The news of Louts PHILIPPE'S death reached
Wiesbaden on the 29:h ult. On the following morn-
ing all the French visitors of Wiesbaden, with the
Duke of BORDEAUX at their head, attended a funeral
mass in the church, which was hung with black. On
the same day the Duke gave a farewell reception, at
which he delivered the following brief adieu to his as-
sembled partisans :
" Gentlemen,—Let me bring you together once more
around me, not to say ' Adieu, but revoir;' to thank
you for having quitted your families and affairs of bu-
siness to visit me. I have communicated to many cf you
my intentions, my desires, the line of conduct to follow,
and what men possess my confidence. I wish to repeat
to all of you that if you desire the triumph of our noble
and holy cause, which is that of France, union and dis-
cipline are indispensable. Show yourselves inflexible as
to principles, moderate and conciliating as to persons.
He whom you regard as your head, as your king, and
who, I may add, is also the best of your friends, will
always show you this example. And if society, if
France, were ever in danger, ah! tell all our friends how
happy and proud I should be to fly with you to her
defence."
The Duke, having pressed the hands of those pre-
sent, then retired.

A letter from Cherbourg of the 31st says :
" Strangers are flocking into Cherbourg. The
steamers and public 'vehicles bring every day crowds of
visitors, and among them are a great number from
Jersey. When the Jersey steamer, the Superb, ar-
rived, it went round the roadstead to show the fleet to
the passengers, but it reglected to salute the station-
ary vessel as required by the regulations. A gun was
fired to remind the captain of his duty, but he took no
notice. Thereupon the boats of dig Bucophale, commanded
by Lieut. Picard and his officers, put off and overtook
the Superb just as it was about to enter the port.
The lieutenant demanded explanations, and the
English captain, M. Priaulx, immediately gave them in
tho most satisfactory manner. This, joined to the cour-
tesy of the French officers, prevented the commander of
the rcadsted from putting the Superb in quarantine in
the middle of the port, a proceeding la hich would have
been anything but amusing to the passengers. This
incident caused a certain movement among the persons '
on thQ quays. It was said that as the Superb had
endeavoured to enter without respecting the regula-
tions, it must needs have some important or suspected
personage on board. Some one, by way of joke, pro-
nounced the name of Ledru-Rollin, and immediately
it became generally reported that he was really on
board. The gendarmerie, the police, the customs' offi-
cers, and tho local authorities, were immediately on foot,
and a minute examination of every pa,senger was made.
Fortunately no one resembled the celebrated exile, o
tine
would at once have been seizrd by the collar, And
marched off to gaol, there being strict orders all along
the coast to keep up a sharp look-out after him. After
it became certain that Ledru-Itollin was not on hoard
the Superb, the passengers were allowed to disembark,
but then a scrupulous examination of the boxes and port-
manteaux was made. The inhabitants of Jersey, who so
well received the national guards of Avranehes and
Granville, were astonish( d at such a reception."
Although there was very little.business transacted at
the Bourse the price of public se curitics was more firm.

DENMARK AND THE DUCHIES.
The German papers have advices from Kiel and
Altona of the 31st ult , but they contain nothing new
or interesting.
A Russian fleet was seen off Kiel on the 31st ult.,
and when it sailed it left a squadron of eight Russian
ships and one Danish frigate to blockade the harbour
of Kiel.

MONEY and COMMERCIAL NEWS.
CITY, TWO O'CLOCK.

Th 3 Tales of Cotton at Liverpool yesterday were esti-
mated at 5,000 bales, of which 1,000 American, and 400
Pernam and Maranham were taken for export. The
sales comprised 4,000 American, 500 Pernam and Ma-
rauham at Bld. to 8,3‘d., 100 Egyptian at BIJ. to 81d.,
and 400 Surat at 4id. to sid. per lb. The market
closed steadily at Friday's rates.—The Share Market
was firm at preview) rates.
In a monthly review of the London produce markets
by Messrs. Wilkinson and Jewesbury, it is stated:—
" We have to report an improved tone in the Foreign
and Colonial Produce Markets during the past month
transactions in most articles have been on a large scale
both for export and home consumption; stocks in first
hands are not equal to those of last year, and dealers
are but moderately supplied; the deliveries continue upon
a very large scale, which the present moderate rates will
no doubt cause to bo maintained. The attention of spe-
culators has been more freely turned to produce, and
large sales have been made privately on that account.
Dyes and dyeing materials have continued in good de-
mand, and prices have an upward tendency, excepting
for Cochineal and Lac Dye, which are ra!ho reasier for
the inferior qualitie; the deliveries for all purposes have
increased, and our stocks show a falling off.
" The manufacturing districts in Lancashire have
been influenced by the depression which has prevailed
in the Liverpol cotton market, and business transac-
tions became very limited; during the past week, prices
having ruled steadier, purchasers have shown more dis-

po-iticti to op:•rate; from the woollen districts the ac

counts continue favourable, the demand is good both for
export and home use, and stocks are light. The intel-
ligence last rest ived from India reports that the more
favourab'e state of the home markets had caused in-
creased activity in the demand for export; the import
trade was not in a satisfactory state, large sales of Bri-
tish goods had been made, but prices for nearly all
kinds were lower; stocks are large, with further sup-
plies shortly expected; in China also both imports and
exports had declined in value.

Brazils and Spain faithfully to carry into effect their
treaties with England for the abolition of the
trade; or oyierwise, by directing a more
efficient force against the slavers themselves; and the
object, according to the statement before us, is of much
easier attainment than has hitherto been supposed.
Looking at the question in the business light only, its
bearings are regarded as being very important, for the
annual production of sugar in Cuba, Porto Rico, and
the Brazils, is 370,000 tons, and of Coffee 103,000 tons,
and these quantities would be materially lessened, we
are to supyiso as the traffic in slaves becomes curtailed,
and so far be in favour of our colonies. A very trifling
addition to the current price of sugar would restore
to some extent prosperity to our colonies, and if the
United States and France are bent likewise upon co-
operating, the planters of the former country, it is as-
serted, being severely competed isith by Cuba and

or no additional

and vessels to be employed, succeed in entirely suppress.
ing the traffic, or at least the evidence before the com-
mittee of the House of Lords is adduced as warranting
this conclusion.
