No one can reproach the British Parlia-
ment for inattention to the state oil Ireland.
Three-fourths Of the time Of the House OF
Commons during the present session have
been devoted to Irish affairs, and the last
week has produced from Sir Robert Peel
and other m embers some Of the best speech
es ever made upon the great problem Of re-
generating that unhappy country Mr..
Bright, bv mo- means a iavorite IN the House
of Commons, has also delivered mastery
and admired Grafton; but with all this COM
bnation Of striking talent we seek in vain
for any practical pan which is at all likely
to redeem the depressed fortunes Of the SIS
ter country. Sir Robert Peel has further
developed, still in very vague, manner, has
plan. He propores the issuing Of com

spot where distress most prevails, and this
commission is to undertake the charge o

France with some exceptional distntban-
ces in the distant provinces, continues tran
quill, and Louis Napoleon is proceeding in
the surest path to maintain his position, BY
instantly suppressing domestic disorder, and
by steadily avoiding any interference by force
OF arms in the affairs Of the conterminous ma
tons. Notwithstanding the excitement at
tempted to be created BY the Red Republicans
upon the question Of Piedmont, Louis Napole-
on and his ministry supported by all the ration
al men in France, set their faces against an
armed intervention for the purpose Of pre-
venting, that which nobody contemplates,

men of all parties in England consider that
great step has been made toward the paci-

emplary moderation Of Austria gives fur
Their guarantee that hostilties will not be re-
sumed upon the question Of the Lombard
provinces The proceedings Of the Nation

the abdcation Of Charles Albert have beer
communicated to them; but NJ Thier,
and others having explained pretty clearly
that it will require 100000 men to enable
France to carry on propagandist war, and
that war with Austria and Russia viii be
inevitable if France NEEDLES by an armed
intervention in Italian affairs; the Assembly
as well as the nation generally, entertain
more prudent opinions than they did Wis

Commercial Matters.

The Bank Of England returns during the
last fortnight show the general business Of
the institution to be in normal state The
bullion in the vaults is about Els, 300, 900;
so that any drain which may arise from the
United States, in order to correct the pre-
sent inequality of the exchanges, may be
amply met without any present alarm being
excited that the efflux OF bullion can posi-
bly, revive the circumstances Of October,
lS41 Considering the new imports Of bull
lion from California, It can scarcely be a
matter Of surprise that some portion of it
should find its way from, hence to the United
States. Money has somewhat increased in
value; the lowest bank rate is 3 per cent,
but with private banks the best bills can be
done at about 2 l2 per cent. The April
dividends now due will probably keep it
about the present value. There is still an
uneasy feeling respecting the threatened
hostilties in the North Of Europe; but if the
Danish quarrel could be adjusted, nothing
material would stand in the way Of perma-
nent prosperity in commercial affairs. The
Board OF Trade returns, ending 9Th OF
March last, exhibit very satisfactory proofs
Of the commerce Of the country having now
returned to a prosperous condition. The
exports of the two first months Of lS49
show an improvement upon those of last
year, which is satisfactory, as they were the
two months preceding the French revolu-
ton. The import Of coffee seems to have
enormously Increased, the excess being
mainly foreign. In the two months Of lS4S
only 100000 lbs Of foreign coffee were i'm
ported, whilst. during the same period in the
present year the quantity Of foreign imported
was 3,2o0,t,s0 lbs The importation OF
breadstufs ontinues upon gigantic scale,
and the same may be said Of all kinds OF
provisions. The imports Of cotton wool
have increased from 3,l46,000 lbs. in the
two months Of last year, to 4,l73,000 lbs
in the same period Of 1s49. The quaint
ties Of almost all duty-paid articles used fol
home consumption have increased, except
slight fnllng of in tea. The weekly ac-
counts Of the Bank OF France show pro.
gressive improvement Of the trade Of Paris
The French Funds, since the total defeat O
Chasles Albert, have been well maintained

neve,.,,e Returns.

The revenue returns for the financial year
and quarter ending on the 9Th, show contin-
uous, though not very great, improvement. 1t
is true there is a decrease on the quarter Of
g264, 093, but this has been occasioned by
the stoppage Of the China money, which added
9455,02l to the return for the correspond
ing quarter Of last year.
The returns show an increase Of 81 1884,
554 in the customs revenue for the year
1882, as compared with that Of ls47-s;
in the excise revenue an increase Of $685.
.632. There is an increase of .E39, 900 in
the crown lands. In all other branches Of
the ordinary revenue there is decrease; the
most considerable item being one of g7l9,-
5sl upon stamps. The excess Of increase
over decrease On the total revenue Of the
year, (ordinary and extraordinary is 1857 )
$50.
The result of these returns is, that in the
customs revenue Of the year just ended
as compared with tina: Of the preceding year
there has been an increase of more than {
million; in the excise revenue an In
crease of more than half million; in
the revenue from stamps decrease
of nearly two-thirds OF a million; and
in all other branches Of revenue, incon-
siderable variations--n downward direc-
ton in all Of them except the crown lands.
The customs revenue is obviously recover
ing with most rapidity from its depression.
This Is altogether satisfactory, and shows
that The country is slowly but, we trust,
surely recovering from the depression Of the
disastrous years OF 1867.
