The Correction Bill against Ireland
has passed the House of Lords. In its
last stage it received some important
i.'odiflcatit n-one IN particular, by
which counsel are allowed to prisoners
before the Court Martiais. In ordin-
AIRY Courts Martial the prisoner sub
mlts his questions in writing to the
President before they can be put.
The Bill will probably be much longer
on its passage through the House
of Commons the London
Atlas Of the 9th February, contains
an item, of intelligence, which if true
may prove very important. 1t is that
the Political Unions in England are
about TO oppose determined resis-
lance to the passage Of this Bill. 1t
will be recollccted that during the agi
tation of the Reform question, these
Unions exercised considerable intiu-
ence over the public mind, and that
inis,ers were charged with encour-
aging them as their action was then
favourable to the views ofGove rnment.
1t would not be astonishing if they
were now to create throughout Eng
land. violent opposition among the
lower classes to the arbitrary measures
proposed against Ireland.
1t appears that the King of Holland
has desisted from levvins a toll on the
careoes of ships ascending the Scheldt.
In other respects however shows no in
teDtion to give way.
1t seems generally admitted even by

been sanguine of the success Of

Is now almost desperate.
