PRISON DISCIPLINE.

Mr. T. DUNCOMBE said he wished to ask the Right
Hon. Baronet opposite (Sir J. Graham) whether the
statement he made in reply to him, a few evenings ago,
was correct ? The Right Hon. Baronet stated, that out of
the 1,207 prisoners who were sentenced to corporal punish-
ment, 70 only were adults. But on looking to the official
returns, he found the number of adults amounted to 482,
so that he apprehended the Right lion. Baronet was under a
wrcino•6 impression when he made his statement.
Sir J. GRAHAM would give the best explanation in
his power to the Hon. Gentleman. It was quite true that,
out of 70,000 adults confined in prisons in the year 1841,
482 persons were subjected to corporal punishment.
Out of these 314 received that punishment in execution
of sentence passed upon them, and 70 only out of the
70,000 received corporal punishment for breach of prison
discipline.

HILL COOLIES.

Mr. HOGG said that there had been laid on the table
of the House copies of despatches from the Secretary of
the Colonies, and the President of the Board of Control,
to the Directors of the East India Company, transmitting
a copy of the Order in Council regulating the introduction
of natives of India into the Mauritius, and also, copies
of despatches, containing the opinions of her Majesty's
➢lia,isters regarding the supply of free labour from India
to the Mauritius. They had required the Court of Di-
rectors to transmit those despatches to the Governor-
General of India, to be by him laid before the Legis-
lative Council in India for their opinion. The
question which he wished to ask was, whether
the President of the Board of` Control would,
before those documents were sent out to India,
have any objection to lay on the table of the House a
copy of the despatches which the Court of Directors had
sent out on the subject, and of the instructions which
they had issued to the authorities in India.
Mr. B. BARING said, that as the object of the Go-
vernment was that the utmost publicity should be given
to everything relating to the subject of the emigration
of the,Hill Coolies from India to the Mauritius, there
could be no objection to laying those papers on the table.
RAILROADS (IRELAND).

On the application of the' CHANCELLOR of the

Mr. FRENCH postponed his motion on the subject of
Railroads in Ireland which stood upon the paper, this

IMPORTATION OF INDIANS.

Mr. BINGHAM BARING said that perhaps he might
now be allowed to answer the question put by the
Hon. Gentleman the Member for Inverness (Mr. Baillie),
a few evenings ago, as to whether the Board of Control
turned its attention to the importation of Lascars from
India, who were wandering about the streets in a
state of destitution. He had promised to make an
inquiry into the subject, and he might state that the
attention of the Court of Directors, and of the Board of
Trade, would also be drawn to the subject.
THE EXCHEQUER BILL FRAUD.
The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER then
rose Lhe said, I am glad, Sir, that the Noble Lord, and
the Honourable Gentleman opposite, have enabled me
to bring be:ore the House a subject of great public
and individual importance, and that 1 am now
at liberty to recur to the assistance of Parlia-
inent for a complete development of a transaction
which has lately engaged a large portion of public
t,
at-
tention, and which has been to all concerned in
the administration of the financial department of
the country, for some months past, a source of

The object, therefore,
which I now have in view this evening, is to submit to
the House the measure which I have thought it expe-
dient that Parliament should adopt, in order that theivhole
transaction may be fully known both to this House, to
l'arli:xment, and to the country. In proposing the mea-
sure which I shall submit to the House, it is not my
intention to enter into any examination of what may
have been the defects of the system under which
Exchequer Bills have heretofore be 3n fabricated
and issued, nor to discuss what changes it may
be essential to make, either in the law which ,Fo-
verns their issue, Or the regulations . under which
they have berm issued. That will be a sub-

have been allowed to weigh well the recom-
mendations that have been submitted to the
House, in the Report of the Commissioners ; and

IRISh POPULATION RETURNS.

Dr. BOWRING asked the Noble Lord, the Secretary
for Ireland, when the Irish population returns would be
likely to be laid on the table of the House ?
Lord ELIOT, in reply, read an extract from a com-
munication he had received from the Population Commis-
sioners, stating the counties were nearly completed, and
the province of Munster was then in progress ; the whole
work, they expected, would be finished by the Ist of July.
The Commissioners also stated that they had found the
work more heavy than they had expected, as the returns
.would not only include the population, but important
statistic details relating to the education of the people,
their longevity, and their means of support.
IRISH CHARITIES.

In answer to a question from Colonel CONOLLY,
Lord ELIOT stated that the Bill for the regulation of
Irish charities was in such a state of progress, that he
hoped he should be able to lay it shortly on the table of
the House.

STATISTICS.

Mental alienation, according to the best authorities, appears to
occur more frequently in Great Britain than in any other country
except Norway, the proportion in England being one insane person
to every 783 inhabitants, and in Scotland one in 573, whilst in
Norway the ratio is one maniac in 551 of the population. Mania
seems to increase as man recedes from the wai na or southern coun-
tries bordering the Meditetraneun, and approaches the colder
regions of the north. In Italy the scale descends so low as to give
not more than one insane person to every 3,785 inhabitants.
NAVAL AND MILITARY.

It is considered matter of surprise that her Majesty, on the occa-
sion of her visit to the ships at Portsmouth, should not have visited
the renowned flag-ship the Victory, having on its deck the Identical
spot on which Nelson fell. •
Dr. Lushington gave judgment, in the case of the vessel Wilhel-
mine, at the Admiralty Court yesterday ; the claim of the saivors
failed.

The collision between the Canadian and the William and Mary,
in the river, by which the latter was materially damaged, was de.
cided to have been occasioned by the default of the pilot. The owners
were therefore dismissed and with costs.
LAW AND POLICE.

A meeting was held yesterday at the Guildhall Coffee.house, by
the friends of Mr. Laurie, who is a candidate for the vacant City
pleadership. The Lord Mayor was in the Chair, and promised his
vote in favour of Mr. Laurie.

At the Longford Assizes, Michael Casey, cn Friday, and Michael
Hatton, on the day following, were separately arraigned under the
statute of the 2d and 3d of Victoria, for having in their possession
certain secret passwords connected with the Ribbon Socieiy ; but
the case of the informer broke down, and they were acquitted.
The case of the collision of the Durham and the Aurora in the
Humber, on the 14th of October last, which was alleged by the
latter to have been caused by the two precipitate dropping of the
Durham's anchor, was decided yesterday. The Durham was pro.
flounced free from blame, and the amount for damage incurred by
them awarded, by the Court.

The salvage ease of the Pilot, an East Indiaman, which got on
the mud off the coast of Sumatra, in May last, and assisted by
another East Indiaman, who saw flags of distress flying, and the
danger of her crew exposed to the Malay pirates, was also adjudged.
The action was only for salvage for part of the property, 3951.
having already been paid in compensation. A tender of 1001. had
been made for this, which the Court finally considered enough, and
for which it pronounced, condemning the salvors in costs.

IRISH POPULATION RETURNS.

Dr. BOWRING asked the Noble Lord, the Secretary
for Ireland, when the Irish population returns would be
likely to be laid on the table of the House ?
Lord ELIOT, in reply, read an extract from a com-
munication he had received from the Population Commis-
sioners, stating the counties were nearly completed, and
the province of Munster was then in progress ; the whole
work, they expected, would be finished by the Ist of July.
The Commissioners also stated that they had found the
work more heavy than they h.i,d expected, as the returns
would not only include the population, but important
statistic details relating to the education of the people,
their longevity, and their means of support.
• IRISH CHARITIES. •

In answer to a question from Colonel CONOLLY,
Lord ELIOT stated that the Bill for the rel„-;mlation of

loped he should be able to lay it shortly on the table of
he House.

SUPPLY OF GRAIN.

An IloN. MEMBER wished to ask the Right }lon.
Baronet, the First Lord of the Treasury, whether it was
the intention of her Majesty's Government, in regulating
the supply of c•nrn, to establish some means of ascer-
taining correctly, or as near as possible, the number of
acres sown annually in the United Kingdom, specifying
the different kinds of grain, and also the quantity of
produce thereof, so as to be able to estimate, when the
system is in operation, whether, with a fair average crop,
there was a sufficient quantity sown for the consu:nption
of the United Kingdom. .

Sir ROBERT PEEL said that the House was
aware, probaly, that there had existed, in con-
nection with' the Board of Trade, a department
for the purpose of collecting statistical information
is reference. to the commerce and exports of the country.
There had been a recent • addition made to that depart-
ment fur the purpose of collecting statistical information
connected with agriculture ; but that information would
have reference to facts and not to estimates. He
thought nothing could be more unwise than for a
Woverntnent to undertake to collect information
:or _the purpose of enabling individuals to form
in opinion as to the probable supply. He apprehended
that the probable supply, and- the consideration of what
means should be adopted for the purpose of supplying, a
deficiency, - hal- much better; be, left-.to the natural
operations of commerce than to any interference
on the part of Government. Although it might
be proper to - collect statistical information' with re-
ference to agriculture he should deprecate the publication
of any information on the part of the Government, for
the purpose of enabling individuals to form an opinion as
to whether there were or were not a sufficient supply.
Mr. O'CONNELL gave notice, that on the blouse
going into Committee of Supply on the Army and Navy
Estimates, he would call the attention of the 'douse to the
religious destitution of Catholics in her -Majesty's service.
On the motion of Mr. MILES, certain returns of
County Treasurers' accounts were ordered.
NAVY ESTIMATES.

Captain PECHELL wished to ask the Right Hon.
Baronet at the head of the Government whether it would
be convenient for him to state on what day he proposed
to bring forward the Navy Estimates. It appeared from
the Notices that the Government intended to bring for-
ward the Army and Navy Estimates, but it was not
stated which they intended to bring forward first.
Sir R. PEEL said that the Navy Estimates would be
brought forward first.

MONEY-TZADZ-CoyzmEncz.

The deficiency detected in the accounts of Mr.
Hannay, the Managing Director of the late Maryle-
bone Bank, amounting to 17,0001., will fall upon the
Directors exclusively. By means of mutual conces-
sions, the claims of the creditors, it is said, will be
discharged in full.
The Spitalfields weavers, at a meeting last night,
convened to consider the late Custom-house frauds,
resolved that for the present no meeting of the trade
should be called, but that they should • wait to ascer-
tain the result of any investigation instituted by the
Government.

Mr. Martin, of Wakefield, engaged in the malt and
corn trade, has failed to the amount of about 7,0001.
His business in Lancashire was considerable, and the
Excise claim to the extent of 3,0001.

ECCLESIASTICAL.
The new Bishop of Meath is cousin-german of the
Duke of Buccleuch. This appointment is said to be
chiefly owing to the influence of the Primate of Ire-
land, under whom he acted in the capacity of chaplain.

MLECTIONEZIRrItG.
Three new candidates are spoken of for the repre-
sentation of Coleraine, in addition to those in the field,
namely, Mr. Lawrence, a Liberal Presbyterian Ma-
gistrate of the town: Mr. Richardson, a Tory ; and
Mr. Crichton, a Scotch Presbyterian.

NAVAL AND MILITARY.
Lieutenant-General Sir James Lyon, K.C.B. and
G.C.H., Colonel of the 24th Regiment, died lately
at Brighton.
Woolwich, it is stated, will shortly be added to the
metropolitan stations of the Foot Guards.
A Court-martial was held on Saturday at Ports-
mouth, on board the St. Vincent, for the trial of Mr.
John Evans, gunner of the Jasseur, for absenting
himself without leave, and neglecting his duty. He
was sentenced to be severely reprimanded, and not to
be permitted at any time hereafter to rise above the
third class of gunners in her Majesty's Navy.
