HOUSE OF LORDS.-MONDAY

The Earl of ST. GERMAIN moved the second reading
of the bill for the protection of life in Ireland, and dwelt
on the necessity of investing the government of Ireland
with the extraordinary powers which would be granted by
the proposed measure. It was notorious that the crimes
of murder and outrageous assault had become of late alar-
mingly prevalent in Ireland. He held in his hand official
returns of all the offences against the person, property,
and the public peace which had been committed in Ire-
land during the last two years ; from which it appeared
that the number of homicides perpetrated in Ireland in
1844 amounted to 144; and in 1845 to 136. In 1844 the
number of cases of tiring was 104 ; and 1845, 138. In
1844, the number of aggravated assaults was 504 ; and in
1845, 544. In 1841, the number of eas, sof common as-
saults was 251 ; and in 1845, 242. The crimes of robbery
and arson had also increased to a fearful extent. In 1844
the number of cases of robbery of arms was 159; and in
1845, 551. The instances of administering unlawful oaths
bad also increased during the years in question from 59 to
223; of issuing threatening notices from 462 to 1341 ; of
attacks on houses from 254 to 483 ; of firing into dwelling
houses from 77 to 128. The total number of offences
against person and property in 1844 was 1195, and in
1815, 3462. The number of offences against the public
peace in 1844 was 3102, and in 1845, 5281. In 18 coon•
ties crime had diminished ; in 4 it had remained station-
ary ; but in 10 it had largely increased. His lordship
then entered into further details with regard to the state
of crime in these peccant districts, and related several
remarkable cases of homicide and outrage, for the pur-
pose of justifying the introduction of the proposed bill.
These cases were of as unusually appalling character.
The rich man, said his lordship, was comparatively safe;
but the poor man was absolutely without protection.
The police and stipendiary magistrates had been in-
creased in vain, and nothing short of extraordinary
measures could meet the exigency of the case. The first
clause empowered the Lord Lieutenant to declare by pro-
clamation that any district in which outrages of the de-
scription referred to are on the increase should be bur-
dened with additional police and a stipendiary magistrate.
The second clause empowered the Lord Lieutenant to
warn the inhabitants of any disturbed district to remain at
home between sunset and sunrise; the third clause autho-
rised the Lord Lieutenant to award compensation to the
family of the murdered man, to be paid out of the assess-
ment on the district in which the murder may have been
perpetrated. The noble earl, in conclusion, deprecated
any attempt to give the question a portical complexion.
During the last session £414,000 had been voted for the
purpose of improving Ireland, and no fewer than thirteen
railroads, involving an expenditure of £9,000,000 had
passed the legislature. These measures could not
bear fruit unless a greater security for life and property
were provided. His lordship trusted that the time would
arrive when the bill he proposed might be repealed.
Lord FARNHAM spoke as a resident in one of the most
disorganised parts. His lordship alluded to the murder
of Mr. Bell Booth, which showed the fearful state to
which the district in which he had resided had been re-
duced. He dwelt on the refusal of the parties who wit-
nessed the murder to assist in identifying or apprehending
the murderers. His lordship spoke of the efforts of the
ribbon agents as most ii.jurious to the peace of the coun-
try, and called upon their lordships to shape their mea-
sure so as to put down those dangerous societies.

After a few words from Lord WESTMEATH, and other
peers, the bill was read a second time.

HOUSE OF COMMONS.-MONDAY

In reply to questions from Mr. O'Connell,
Sir R. Peer, said it was not the intention of the go-
vernment to bring in any measures in reference to Ire-
land to take precedence of the commercial measures un-
der the consideration of parliament It was, however,
intended in the present session to bring in a bill to give
encouragement to the improvement of land in Ireland, by
granting compensation to tenants for such improvements
as they might effect. It was also intended to bring in a
bill to amend the elective franchise in counties, and also
to amend the proeeedinrs at elections generally. In ad-
dition to these bills, it was intended to bring in another
for the purpose of amending the franchise in municipal
towns so as to assimilate them as far as possible to those
of Ens,land.

In reply to a question from Mr. O'Connell,
Sir JAMES GRAHAM said, he deei.ly regretted having
to admit that a deputation from Westmeath had waited
upon his exzellency the Lord Lieutenant, praying. that
Braon Seery might not be respited, but that the executi-
on should be suffered to proceed. He could, however,
assure the haus-, that that deputation did not. influence
the Lord Lieutenant in the course he had adopted.

The debate on the corn laws was then resumed, and
was again adjourned.

HOUSE OF COMM ONS.—TuEsDAT

The debate on the Corn-1 ,ws was resumed again. Mr.
M. O'CONNELL, on general principles, advocated the
measure ; Col. CONOLLY, on general principles, opposed it.
Lord INGE THE asked the Chancellor of the Exchequer
why, after his secession, he bad rejoined the ministry, and
why he did not resign his seat for Cambridge? He ar-
gued, on the authority of official returns. that wheat could
be imported at 225. a quarter; and produced to the house
a young potato, which he affirmed to be a very good one,
as a proof that young and healthy roots might be produced
from the eyes of diseased potatoes.
The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER made the Mi-
nisterial speech of the evening. He gave an account of
his owu conduct during the late crisis. He had opposed
opening the ports by Order in Council—he had opposed
the meeting of Parliament in N-vember ; but, when the
extent of the potato failure was ascertained, he became
convinced that the alteration of the Corn-laws bad now
become a question of absolute necessity, and prepared to
give his opinion that, under all the circumstances of the
case, those laws ought to undergo a change. At the same
time, However, he felt that the change ought to be ef-
fected by others than himself and his colleagues, and had
accordingly resigned, without any prospect of returning
to office. He had no intention whatever of retiring from
the representation of Cambridge, He then dived into fi-
gures and calculations, with the view of showing the in-
fluence of the removal of protective duties on the shipping
interest. In the year 1842 the tonnage of British vessels
engaged in the foreign trade amounted to 2,600,000 tons.
In the year 1845 it was 3,690,000 tons, showing an in-
crease consequent on the relaxation of duties of one mil-
lions of tons in that period. Again, it was said that inju-
rious effects were likely to result to the timber trade from
the proposed measure—let us see what injury has resulted
from the relaxations which have hitherto taken place. In
1842 the number of ships engaged in the Baltic trade was
3,519, their tonnage 013,809 tons; in 1844 the number
was 4,424, their tonnage 818.449 tons, showing an in-
crease of 1,000 ships and 200,000 tons. He reminded his
hearers that in the reign of Charles the First the agricul-
tural interest had expressed the same alarms as in the
present day.
Mr. FERRAND made a speech which occupies five co-
lumns in the morning papers He first attacked the
system of petitions. The Anti Corn-law League had pur-
chased signatures in the West Biding of Yorkshire at the
rce of one shilling a hundred, and he was prepared to
produce evidence, if necessary, that one man had actually
attached 14,000 signatures to one of those petitions, and
that he had done so without ever having lett his house, or
even having asked a single person to write his name. He
proceeded to animadvert on the conduct of various ho-
nourable gentlemen whom he saw around him, and others
who were not there. He regretted that Mr, W. Beckett
was not there to be questioned :—" In the borough which
he represented, the honourable gentleman had been called
Honest William Beckett.' But if the honourable gen-
tleman now betrayed his principles, he would have another
syllable prefixed to that title, and be known in the borough,
politically speaking, as ' Dishonest William Beckett.'"
Mr. Cobden did not escape,—the truck system, the
shops, the cows, and the cottages were recalled again to
the recollection of the house. He dwelt fondly on the
days when be used to receive large packages of Sir R.
Peel's speeches upon the corn lows, sold at one penny
each. Who sent them he could never find out, but he
very much suspected that the right hon. baronet had
beard what an earnest supporter he (Mr. Ferrand) was of
those principles, and that therefore he had favoured him
with those packages, " carriage paid." (Laughter.) He
circulated them amongst all parties in his neighbourhood ;
they were most instrumental in creating a great many
proselytes, and were one chief cause of the return of Mr.
Stuart Wortley, now Lord Wharncliffe, for the West
Riding. Ile anticipated the growing prevalence of the
democratic principle. Should that unfortunate day ever
dawn upon the political horizon when the power of demo-
cracy will be paramount, degraded indeed will be our fate.
But I will add—

" May I be cold b2fore that dreadful day,
Pressed with a load of monumental clay;"
and told Sir R. Peel, at the top of his voice, that the peo-
ple of Great Britain and Ireland viewed with unmitigable
disgust his contemptible apostacy and tergiversation.
• The other a: eaters were Mr. Trelawney, in favour of
the measure, and Mr. Parke against it.
