LONDON, THURSDAY, JUNE 26, 1845.

The House of Lords did not sit.

The House of Commons met at Four.

The South Wales Rfflllvvay Bill was, after a short con-
versation, ordered to be referred back to the Committee,
leave being given to the Committee to sit on Monday
next.

Mr. Sergeant MURPHY'S motion for the recommittal
of the Wexford and Carlow Railway Bill was withdrawn
after a short conversation.

Mr. COBDEN then brought forward his motion for the
appointment of a Commission to inquire into the relative
merits of the broad and narrow gauges.
The motion, which was seconded by Mr. M.
PHILLIPS, and acceded to by Sir G. CLERK, on the
part of the Government, was agreed to.
The Lunatic Paupers Bill passed through Committee.
On the Report on the Statute Labour (Scotland) Bill
being brought up,

Mr. SMOLLETT moved the re-committal of the Bill,
fur the purpose of adding certain clauscs.

After a short discussion the Bill was re committed,
several new clauses were added, the House resumed, and
the report was brought up and agreed to.

The House then resolved itself into Committee on the
Dog Stealing Bill.

The second clause, inflicting a penalty of 201. for a first
offence of dog-stealing, and transportation for a third,
was opposed by Mr. WATSON, on the ground that the
pucishn►ents were too severe, and supported by Mr.
C II RTEIS.

Mr. LIDDELL proposed to alter the penalty for the
second offence from transportation to a fine of 201., or
imprisonment, with or without hard labour, provided it
did not exceed eighteen months. After some further
observations the amendment was agreed to. On the
question that the clause, as amended, stand part of the
Bill, Mr. HAWES moved the omission of the clause. The
Committee then divided, when the numbers were—For
the clause, 33 ; against it, 6 ; majority, 27. The clause,
as amended, was then agreed to.
The remaining clauses mere agreed to after some
little discussion. The House resumed, and the Bill was
reported.
The House then reso'.ved itself into Committee on the
Smoke Prohibition Bill, on the motion of the Earl of
LINCOLN.

The several clauses were, after some discussion,
agreed to, and, the House having resumed, the.report
was ordered to be brought up on Friday next.
The other orders of the day were then disposed of, and
he House adjourned at twelve o'clock.

The debate in the House of Lords on Tuesday night,
on the Tenants' Compensation (Ireland) Bill, was at
once entertaining and instructive. We have no wish to
speak invidiously of Irish landlords. Their conduct has
been, no doubt; in former years very highly culpable i
but we are strongly impressed with the belief that, as a
body, they are now, and have for some time past, ex-
tensively improved both in the discharge of the duties
exacted by the relations in which they stand to their
tenants,'and their own personal deportment in the dis-
charge of their duties to society in general. And at all
times, both among her native proprietors and her Eng-
lish owners, she has reckoned individual landlords not to
be surpassed for intelligence, steadiness, and liberality
by those of any other country in Europe. Among
all political parties and all religious persuasions these
excellent examples have been found. The Presbyterians
of the north, the Roman Catholics of the south, the
Protestant aristocracy of England, the ancient nobility and
gentry of Ireland, have, in many instances, shown a degree
of patriarchal kindness to their tenantry—cousulting and
providing for their wants, aiding the improvements of
their homesteads, building chapels and schools for them,
cutting and improving roads fur their accommodation,
and at heavy charges to themselves—which may well be
allowed to be set against a large account of bygone
generations of delinquent latidlotds. St 11, it must be
allowed that these have been, and are, but brilliant ex-
ceptions to a general rule, tried by which, the majority
( f Irish landlords are certainty far behind the great
bulk of the same class in England. And this proposi-
firm we think we can establish by a very simple test.
The principle that the tenant who has but the usufruct
for a limited term of that property which his landlord
holds either for a much longer term, _ or abso-
lutely in fee, should receive compensation for such per-
manent improvements as he has made in that property
during his tenure of it, is one of simple equity, to put it
at its lowest value. It might also be shown that it is
also one which it should be the policy of the State
to encourage. It seemed somewhat strange on Tues-
day night to find so many Peers, Irish landlords, con-
tending, on their own behalf and that of other Irish
landed proprietors, that this equitable and politic prin-
ciple would be ruinous in Ireland. It seemed some-
what remarkable to find such a combination of opponents
to the measure as the Marquis of LONDONDERRY and
Lord DIONTEAGLE, the Marquis of CLANRICARDE and
Lord BEAUMONT. We greatly doubt whether any
English landlords of large possessions could be found,
who would venture to denounce so fair a principle,
when affirmed on the part of English tenants. Why,
then, should that which is fair, equitable, and
expedient quoad the English tenant, be treated
otherwise than expedient, equitable, and fair
in respect of the Irish tenant ; and with rtgard to
the former Lord CAMPBELL expressly affirmed that the
principle of English law was decidedly in favour of this
principle of the Bill. We could understand the opposi-
tion of the other Peers to the Bill, if it had rested on
Lord CAMPBELL'S assumption that the chase to which
he particularly adverted was so worded that it would
make compensation compulsory on the landlord, even
where the tenant had made alterations, &C., which were
decidedly prejudicial to the property. With submission
to the Noble and Learned Lord these would be very
: Irish" cases of improvements indeed, and it is only for
improvements" that the Bill proposes to secure com-
pensation to the tenant,

In his reply Lord STANLEY appears to have completely
disposed of this objection by showing that the details of
the measure bad been so prepared as to guard against
sanctioning such an abuse. • And we must
remember that Lord STANLEY'S authority
in support of this Bill is to be taken
quite apart from all political considerations ; because,
much to his honour, he is well known to be one of the

~-.-.-C

most popular and considerate landowners in that part of
Ireland in which his estates are situatk d.

We are quite satisfied, upon the grounds assigned by
many Peers in this debate, that the Bill requires and
will receive important modifications in Committee. But
on the best consideration we have hitherto be, n able to
give to the question, we do not see the fora, of the Mar-
quis of SALISBURY'S objections to have the clause com-
pulsory on the landlord. Certain we are, that if in
other remedial measures intended, honestly enough, as
we believe the present one to be, for the benefit and
social improvement of the Irish people, their principle
had been made compulsory on the landlord, the tenantry
of that country would never have been in the melancholy
condition in which the mass of them have so long been
plunged. Besides, if the principle of compensation
to the tenant for improvements effected by him
in the property be sound and just, why should
the landlord, who intends to act honestly by him, object
to its being compulsory upon him to administer it ? The
right of the landlord to prevent projected improvements,
where he may show good ground to the Commissioner
or other authority under the Bill, for anticipating that
they will be too costly, or otherwise objectionable, will no
doubt be provided for by the Committee on this Bill
For our own parts, we quite enter into the wish ex-
pressed by the Duke of RICHMOND, that the same prin-
ciple should be extended to the tenant in England and
in Scotland ; which was the best answer supplied, in the
course of the debate, to the question put by Lord CLAN-
RICARDE-Why the clause confining the operation of the
Act exclusively to Ireland should not be omitted.
We hope and believe that this is not the only fruit we
are to expect from the Tenure of Land Commission in
Ireland, over which the Earl of DEVON presided. But
we are far from disposed to undervalue i 7, taking it even
upon its own isolated merits. It must be evident to
every dispassionate mind which has addressed itself to
the domestic condition of Ireland since the commence-r
ment of the present century, that much of the ill feeling
that has existed there against the landlords has be. n
owing to the cruel manner in which compensation for
actual' expenditure on the permanent improvement of the
lands leased or rented by them has been habitually with-
held. We are bound to add, that we look upon the Bill
as another earnest that the Government is seriously set-
ting itself to the task of redressing practical grievances
in the state of Irish society by practical means.

The Irish Colleges Bill, as amended by the Commons
in Committee, has just been printed, and now appears in
a very complete form. All reasonable objections made
to it by the Catholic prelates as regards religious
education and the undermining of the faith and
morals of the students are entirely obviated. Lecture-
rooms are to be assigned for religious instruction;
no student will be allowed to remain in any of the
colleges, unless he shall dwell with his parent or guar
dian, or some near relation or friend, or with a tutor or
master of a boarding-house licensed by the President of
the College; and it shall be lawful for any person having
the power to make an absolute disposition of his property
to convey lands, tenements, or any estate therein for
establishing and maintaining lectures, or other formstof
religious instruction for the use of students, subject Of,
course, to such regulations as may be made by the
governing body of the college, and approved by her
MAJESTY, as Visitor. If religious instruction therefore
is regarded by Mr. O'CONNELL and Sir RonEwr INGLIS
of such vast importance, they will have them-
selves only to blame if ample provision is not
made for that purpose, for if they are sincere in their
opposition to the measure, and would exert themselves
as good Christians, they could raise by subscription in
one year sums which would amply endow teachers of
divinity for all the colleges. The Government affords
them every facility, and the vote of the house of Commons
for the other objects of these institutions is so liberal, that
they cannot with a serious countenance complain. A
grant at once of 100,0001. has been voted by a large
majority for erecting the buildings, and also the annual
sum of 21,000/. (7,0001 for each) as salaries to the
president, professors, librarians, &c., as well as for
burses and prizes to the pu- ils. The collages are to
make reports of their proceedings every year to her
MAJESTY, and copies of these reports are to be la d
before both Houses of Parliament.

The safe arrival of the noble" Great Britain" steamer
at Plymouth is, in all respects, an era in the history t.f
what may be justly termed " Scientific Navigation."
The triumph of steam as a motive power, of the Arehi-
medean screw as a propelling machinery, and of steerage
over masses however ponderous, and displacement how-
ever extraordinary, may be considered to have been ac-
comrlislied in this trip. She moved along the weters
like a thing " instinct with life," and incorporated with
the element through which she won her rapid but ma-
jestic way. In the whole annals of the noble art of ship-
building nothing approaching to her colossal proportion-,
has yet been attempted, and the symmetry of her model
is as perfect as that of the best finished and smallest of
the pleasure yachts through which she threaded
her course. This mighty bulwark, moreover, an-
swers her helm with such singular facility and
truth, that even her mar.ceuvring bids fair to prove as
transcendent and unrivalled as her enormous length, her
six-fold roasting-, and her combined capacity for tre-
mendous armament and stowage. Leaving her arma-
ment for future notice, we will illustrate the two
other points we have thus noticed by stating that,
prior to taking up her moorings, her captain brought
her head round to precisely the position which six
minutes previously had been occupied by her stern,
describing in this beautiful evolution a circle little ex-
ceeding in its diameter her own length. Her run,
iadeed, is enormous, being 274 feet, but it is associated
with the salutary qualification of unusual width of beam.
Its breadth is in the proportion of between one filth
and one-sixth of this length. Its tonnage far exceeds
that of any ship whatever known to be in existence or
to have been ever built. This seems the proper place
to notice what we apprehend must be an error in the
important Parliamentary Paper (No. 349, H. C., of
this session), the contents of which we noticed the other
day. Under the column giving the date " when
built," we find against the Great Britain the
year 1843 ; and under the column headed " tons "
those figures are repeated. What her registered
tonnage may be we cannot certainly state ; but, if our
memory serves us rightly, the transposition of these
fi4ures, so as to bring the 1843 to 3481, will give a much
more adequate notion of her real capacity. In order to
judge how fer the working power is competent to the mass
to be moved, and, therefore, of the effective proportion
of what may be culled her material force to her bulk, we
may fairly take a mean between these two estimates of to-
nage according to the Parliamentary Paper (doubtless an
incorrect one) and of her real capacity. Let us suppose
this mean to represent 2,000 tons, and the power will be
the equivalent of about one horse to every two ton-. If
the tonnage be taken at 1843, the power is of course still
greater. In either case this is a formidable proportion
ef power to tonnage—always hearing in mind, that as
the rate of tonnage increases the proportion of horse-pow er
must, from various causes, necessarily diminish. It is to the
credit of the Bristol builders—if they needed any praise
to eke out the paramount celebrity they have so justly
acquired by the construction of the Great Western and
the Great Britain—that their steamer cratt is generally
remarkable for this same important element of efficiency,
the nice adaptation of these two conditions. The pro-
p •rtion or horse power in the Great Western is still
higher-400 to 679 tons. In that very fine steamer,
Liverpool built, the Hindustan, it is less, being 400 to
971 tons. She, too, is 217 feet and a half long by
35 and a half broad—a proportion of about one• seventh
in width to the length. But among other Bristol craft
of smaller dimensions, especially the tugs, we find an
enormous increase of power in relation to burden. The
Star, of 140 tons, is of 120 horse-power ; the County of
Pembroke, of 70 tons, 90 horse-power ; the Tiger, 42
tons, 60 horse-power ; and so on. But besides tugs,
there are other steamers built at the same port, as the
Swift, of 100 tons, 100 horse-power ; the Phoenix, 134
tons, 110 horse-power. The Great Britain, in addition
to her overwhelming superiority of dimensions and
power, has approved herself in speed an unequalled
steamer, and finally, she may be fitted for forty guns of
heavy metal.
It is really with feelings of national pride that we
contemplate the auspicious commencement this master-
piece of naval architecture has made of the long, useful,
and prosperous career, which we trust she is destined
to fulfil. She is >t worthy guarantee that the old Eng-
lish supremacy on the seas, through whatever vicissi-
tudes of improvement and extension the noble art of
navigation way yet have to pass, will be vigorously as-
serted sled maintained by the sagacity, the sp.trt, the
liberality, and the native tendencies of the national
genius to maritime pursuits and ship-building. Long
may that spirit and those energies be developed in the
same direction. Long may those tendencies continue
for the advancement of British greatness and prosperity,
the extension of British commerce, the diffusion of Bri-
tish civilization, arts, and institutions, and the conse-
quent welfare of the world at large.

Most of the Paris papers contain articles on the brief
discussion which took place in the Chamber of Deputies
relative to the settlements in the Pacific. This appears
to be a very exciting subjen, for nn sooner is Otaheite
mentioned than three or four speakers of the Opposi:ion
demand to be heard, and, in due order, attack the Go-
vernment for want of spirit in submitting to the whims
of a Queen of savages, and allowing the KING to lower
the dignity of France by inditing an epistle to such a
Sovereign. The Ministerial Globe considers such lan-
guage on the part of Frenchmen very ungallant. "M.
DE MALLEVILLE and M. BILLAULT," it says, " I ave
shown themselves very susceptible as regards the Royal
dignity. They cannot comprehend that the KING of the
FRENCH should have written to Queen POMARE, who
obstinately refuses to reply. They forget that Queen
I'oMARE first wrote to the KING of the FRENCH, and that
the KING had simply to reply to her letter. Does not
the politeness of the members of the Opposition go so
far as to reply to the letters which are addressed to
'them ? • Does M. DE MALLEVILLE who, it is said, is
very gallant towards the ladies, think it is civil not to
reply to a Queen ? We are certain that M. DE MALLE-
VILLE would reply to the most humble grisette, and
even pay the postage of his letter. Why, then, may not
the RING of the FRENCH be as polite as M. DE MALLE-
VILLE ?" The Const;turonnel has the weakness to ad-
vert to these " puerilities," as one of the journals de-
scribes them, in a serious light. Had the discussion
been about the ejection of MEHEMET ALI from Egypt,
or the division of the Turkish empire, M. THIERS'
editor could not have been more solemn. Ile thus
writes:—"Facts speak for themselves. M. DUCHATEL
had the unfortunate notion of referring to the origin of
these questions, covering himself with boastings of the
past against the hum Nations of the present. The effect
produced by this sitting was grand and profound.
The Chamber do not stagger, as it was hoped it
would, under the faults and weaknesses of the Govern-
ment. It indeed seamed to grow younger and m re
vigorous on the ncital of these faults and weaknesses ;
while the, anxiety depietei by -the countenances of the
Ministers announced that the future appeared to them
in dark and dismal colours. The ridicule of all these
overtures, these actual supplications, to Queen POMARE,
will not efface- the feeling of all the humiliation which
France has suffered from this affair."

The rage for railway speculation in France appears to
be on the increase ; and the precincts of the Chamber
of Deputies are so infested with the parties interested,
that a formal complaint was made on the subject by the
Marquis DE LARUCHEJAQUELIN on Tuesday. " The
Salle des Pas Perdus, adjoining the hall they were
sitting in," said he, " was .bsolutely encumbered with
p,r.ons totally disconnected with the Churn)), r, who
assailed the Deputies, as they entered, with impt.,rtuni-
ties relative to the railroad Bills that were or were not
to be placed on the order of the day for discuassiun dur
ing the present session. Such conduct he must de•ig
nate as scandalous, and he called on the President to
prevent it for the future." The President, however,
made no remarks, anti the Chamber proceeded to dis-
cuss the estimates for Public Instruction.

ILLNESS OF SIR WILLIAM FOLLETT.—The answer to

MODEL OF TUE BATTLE OF WATERLOO AT THE
EGYPTIAN BALL.—Captain Siborne has, after great
assiduity and labour, completed the model of the entire
field, covering a surface of about 21 feet by 20 in ex-
tent, and showing the entire lines of both armies, toge-
ther with the Prussian division, under Blucher, at eight
o'clock in the evening. The work is admirably exe-
cuted, and affords the spectator a very distinct and in-
trlligible view of what is supposed to have been the
general appearance of this dreadful battle-ground when
the last grand charge was made alot.g the whole line.
It may be said to be a national work, and, we confi-
dently trust, will repay the skill and expense bestowed
upon it.
MORTALITY IN THE METROPOLIS.—The number of
deaths during the week ending June 21 was. 803, show-
ing a decrease of 42, as compared with the previous
week, and less by 160 than the weekly average of five
years. The fine weather has produced a most favour-
able change in all the diseases of the lungs and other
organs of respiration, the total number of deaths under
that heed bein, only 205, while the weekly average of
five springs is 267, and five years 292. The number of
violent death', however, is unusually large, 31 ; and of
these about 10 were fro►n accidents, from falls and in-
juries in the streets. 7 from drowning, 6 suicides, and 6
from burns and scalds, inc:uding the four persons
unfortunately burnt to death by the fire at Raggett's
Hotel. The deaths from small-pox occurred at the
following ages :—two under 1 year ; four 1-2 ; three
5-10 one 13 ; one 18 ; three 20-30 ; and two
30-35 years. The fall of rain in inches during the
week- was 0.55, aid of that 0.50 fell in one day, Tues-
day, the 17th.

THE SUN NEwsrArEu.—We feel it due to the pro-
prietor of The Sun newspaper to say, that the public ought
to bear in mind and fully appreciate his exertions in giving
early and correct information. For some time the reports
in the third edition of that paper of the proceedings of the
current day in the Railway Committees, and also in the
lluse of Commons, reflect great credit not only upon the
proprietor, but also upon all the gentlemen concerned
thereon : to the former for the spirited manner in which he
surpasses his Contemporaries, and to the latter for the able
manner in which they carry out the wishes of their employer.
Knowing something of the great expense which Mr. Young
must be put to is these efforts to serve the public, we do not
at all hesitate to award to him our feeble meed of praise.—

The Share Market is much brisker to-day, speculation
having increased at Liverpool.. Prices are rather better in
many instances, and there has been more clang in all the'
foreign lines, though the tendency in respect to them is
rather to sell than buy, because prices are receding at Paris.

TARBOLTON FAIR..—On Tuesday last a large num-
ber of cattle were brought to this market, which is one of the
best attended in this district of the county. The animals were
generally of an excellent quality, and sales were effected
with more than usual rapidity; so that by mid-day very
few cows remained unso►d. The supply of Queys was
not adequate to the demand, and a g.od many more could have
been disposed of. Farrow Cows sold from Si. to 8/. ; Dairy
Cows from 7/. to IW. ; and for two superior animals of the
latter kind 151. each were obtained. A two-year old bull !odd
for 201. Among the purchasers were two dealers from Eng-
land, -who bought largely, so that' a great proportion of the
animals sold will find their way across the border.---Ayr Ob-
