posed in a recent sitting of the Seiond Chamber of the
Grand Duchy of Hesse Darmstadt by one of the Mem-
ber,. M. von BIBRA (it would be an act of ingratitude
to omit his name) having, in a set speech, described the
inconvenience arising to the State, from being obliged
to support and guard such prisoners as have been sen-
tenced to imprisonment for life—such as persons con-
victed of murder, infanticide, arson, highway robbery,
and repeated perjury, concluded by moving that al-
'Weals of this description should be sent, every two or
three years, under a military escort, to Hamburgh, as

to iimir Holland I This enlightened 'Legislator may
count upon some extraordinary mark of English grati-
tude for the service he meditates towards this country,
paicularly as his amine embraces the highway rob-

recomnsending that negociations to this. effect should
be immediately commenced, the Hon. Mover thus
concludes :—.6 I am convinced many beneficial effects
would ensue, and the expenses gust be much less than
those caused by a long imprisonment. 'Australia, and
especially Van Diernan's Land, are indisputably the best
countries for this purpose, as they possess many advan-
tages over other transmatine settlements, as has' been
proved by the success ot the English settlements:'—
After some farther observations on the advantages that
might be expected from such a measure, the worthy
Member moved that an Address should be presented to
the Government, requesting that negociations should
be entered into with the neighbouring States, for the
conclusion of a Convention for this purpose.
