WHOLESALE EJECTION of PRES-

BYTERIAN TENANTRY in IRELAND.
(FROM A CORRESPONDENT.)
The following statement is submitted to the generous
consideration of the English public, and, in a more
particular manner, to the members of the affluent Com-
pany of Ironmongers of London and those confederated
with them, whose Irish estate is at the present moment
the scene of the following proceeding—with the hope
that their humane feelings, as landlords, will cause them
to arrest the system of depopulation with which the
most independent and industrious of their tenantry is
threatened : _ _ _

----.----
It appears that the large and valuable estate, called
the manor of Lizard, situated in the county of Derry,
within a shot t distance of Coleraioe, bad been leased to
the Beresford family by this Company, to whom it has
just reverted, on the decease of the late Bishop of
Meath, the last surviving life. The Company ac-
cordingly appointed a gentleman, who had been
a merchant, and a native of the City of London,
with full power to act as their agent, and introduce such
reforms on the estate as might be deemed necessary.
These have been as yet stated to eonsist of two vital
measures, and some others of lees importance, unneces-
sary here to notice. First, an expressed determination
on the part of the Company not to grant leases, which
reduces the tenantry to a state of serfdom ; and, se-
condly, that the farms shall be greatly increased in size.
To accomplish these ends, sixty ejectment* have been
served upon the most independent and responsible of
the small holders the very day or two before the
present term commenced, and allowing each family
to consist of the moderate number of six indi-
viduals, thus will three hundred and sixty of all
ages be dispossessed, besides others who May be
obliged by the same means to follow. The estate has
a most industrious population, who are engaged in. the
manufacture of linen for Coleraine market, and the
cultivation of their little farms affords ,exercise for, the
men when disengaged from their manufacture, while
employment is given to the females of their families in
the preparation and cultivation of flax. The ejectrnents
were served on the last days allowed by lawitlhat it
might inconvenience, filmog,prevatts,atbappcort people
from putting in claformes,4sll solicitors having +at_ the
time gono to attend term to Dublin, which is nearly
120 Irish miles distant.
Almost all of those ejected are Scots Presbyterians,
whose ancestors in 1689, under their minister, the
Rev. A. Boyd, garrisoned the city of Derry during its,
tikemorable siege, to maintain that British connection
which,now threatens to dispossess their descendants.
It is but justice to the other confederate Com-
panies to state 'that most of them sincerely regret
this proceeding, and as they are joint proprie-
tors, may they urge this respectable Com-
pany of • Ironmongers to retrace their steps in
this instance. It is not to be expected that this latter
Company, or their agent, who are gentlemen perfectly
unaccustomed, from their business avocations and early
habits of life in this great city, can understand the agri-
coltural concerns of any estate, much less one situated
in Ireland ; but it is to be hoped their sound judgments
andAind feelings will ultimately prevail over the crude
and hurtful theories of foolish speculators, or interested
advisers.

Cil URCH-RATES.---MONlTioN.—Lagt, week,
twenty-four inhabitants of Headcorn were summoned
to Bearstead Petty Sessions, for non-payment of a
Church-rate made by the minority in vestry on a mo-
nition. Mr. Boykett attended for the defendants.
Proof of the making of the rate after it had been re-
fused by 33 to 14, was put in. Mr. Boykett said it
was much to- be regretted that the minister and
churchwardens of a parish so small, and, compara-
tively, so poor, as that of Headcorn, should have deter-
mined to try the question (if, indeed, they had so deter-
mined) of the power of a minority of parishioners to
make a Church-rate in opposition to the vote of the
majority ; and hoped that the Bench would deem it ex-
pedient to adjourn the further consideration of these
summonses until a decision of the Courts had been oL-
tained on the Braintree and Bradford cases. The Court
refused. Mr. Boykett then put in a: formal objection to
the validity of the rate; and the cases were consequently
dismissed, to be taken to the Ecclesiastical Court.—

The 13th Light Dragoons left this town oil
Friday last, on their route for Windsor. They, in con-
junction with various other regiments, are destined to
form a guard of honour to the King of Prussia on his
arrival. The stay of the 13th, it is understood, will be
protracted for a month, or at least during the sojourn of
the distinguished visitors to the Queen. Shquld the
weather prove favourable, a grand review, with its bril-
lian and exciting accessories, will be held in Windsor
Great Park, in honour of the King and the other dis-
tinguished Tisitors.tb her llojesty..4pswith Xrpress.
