CORRESPONDENCE.

THE POOR-RATES

TO THE EDITOR OF ME LIVERPOOL NtANDARD

brevity will be the first clatnant to editorial
indulgence daring a busy parliamerCary session, I will
waive exordium and state at otte, that as the claims of
Ireland have, by common consent and acclamation in the
House of Commons, 'been allowed to be fastened as a
right on the United Kingdom at large, so the house has,
I contend, by that ftem. con. decision, undeniably esta-
blished the claim of the parish of Liverpool to indemnity
out of thie public purse for the enormous expenditure in-
curred by the influx of Irish paupers into the parish pre-
cincts—an influx which it could not control, and for
which it ought not to he held exclusively and pecuniarily
responsible. I hope our parish authorities will not. fail
to take advantage of the feeling manifested and the ad-
missions made in the House of Commons during the late
debates, but will, notwithstanding their recent defeat,
again push, and strenuously too, their claim for indem-
nity, on.the very ground taken by the several speakers,
that a national imiamity_ ought to be nationally met. To

succeed, Mr. Editor, the importunity must be strong,
and again and again repeated. A simple denial ought not
and must not be taken, for our claims are indefeasible
