Monday, Aran , 2. House Of Lords.—Pomsh ...
MONDAY , Aran , 2 . HOUSE OF LORDS . —Pomsh Refbgbes . — Lord Egmstoun having moved at a previous sitting for some returns respecting the health of the Polish refugees in this country , the object of which was to show that a large proportion of the diseases to which they were subject were caused by profligate habits , The Earl of Harrowby questionedhis lordship as to the result of these returns . The EarldfEGLTNTous acknowledged that they did not bear < out the statement be had made .
Northers I * rju , y . —The Marquis of Lansdowxe moved the third reading of the Mutiny Bill . Lord Brougham thought he should be in order if he asked wither the Polish General who had acted as Commander-in-Chief of the ex-King of Sardinia ' s army had been recommended to fill that office by the British government ? TheMar ^ nisofLxvsnowSK re pli ed , that neither lie Polish General with the unpronounceable name , nor , in fact , any one else , had ever been so recommended by the British government . The Earl of Aberdeen , considering the manifest partiality which had been shown for the King of Sardinia by the British government , was not surprised that such a notion as that referred to by Lord Brougham had got abroad . But , although there could be noconbtas to the sentiments of favour once
entertained hy our government for the Sardinian cause , he must say that he had never on any former occasion witnessed such universal delight as had been exhibited among all parties upon the result of this contest , and that he had never seen such perfect unanimity of-satisfaction as that which existed among Englishmen upon heating that perfidy and ambition had been so signally punished . He only hoped that the government would leave matters as they now stood and not prolong the war by any further attempt at mediation . Let the French government interfere if it pleased ; but , for ns to interfere , who had to complain of pledges unredeemed and treaties violated by Charles Albert , was an idea too monstrous to be seriously entertained , unless we intended to entertain the wild notions of M . Lamart ine , that the treaties of 1815 were for us no longer in
existence . The Marquis of Lamsdowj * r _ repelled the charge of partiality towards the Sardinians brought by Lord Aberdeen against the government , and begged the noble earl to wait until the papers relating to Italy were laid befoee the House . The Earl of Aberdeen warmly repeated his accusations against the government . After some further discussion , in which the Earl of Ellekborough and Earl Fitzwiluam took part , Lord Brougham reminded the House that they had wandered Sst from the order of the day , which was the third reading of the Mutiny Bill . The order of the day was then read , and the Mutiny Bill , the Marine Mutiny Bill , and the Indemnity Bill were read a third time and passed . Their lordships then adjourned . HOUSE OF COMMONS . — Bcsinks op the
House . —Lord Jgqx Russell moved that on Thursday , the 19 th day of April , and every alternate Thursday following , orders of the day have precedence of notices < ef motions . In submitting this motion , the noble lord took occasion to state the manner in which he proposed to deal with the more important measures before the House . Should the report on the Navigation Bill he brought up and received that evening , he would propose that it should be read a third timeon the 23 rd of April . If the report were not brought up that evening , he thought that that stage might be taken immediately after
Easter , so as not to interfere with the proposal to here the bill read a third time on the 23 rd inst . As to the Rate in Aid Bill , he trusted that the House would that night come to a decision on the second reading of the bill , Hewould postpone his resolution for a committee of the whole House for a further advance of . £ 100 , < M * J oa the credit of the rate in aid till Monday , April 16 th , as Mr . Herbert ' s amendment in favour of an income-tax would give rise to a debate , which wauld not terminate previously to the holidays . The Parliamentary Oaths < tbe Jewish . Disabilities ) Bill would be read a second time on Monday , April 36 th .
Mr . Ecmb advised the noble lord to postpone Ihe time at -ehich the Thursday would he so appropriated . He moved . as an amendment , that instead of the 19 th of April , the Thursday in the last week of May should be substituted . If the noble lord adopted the amendment , he would he willing then to give him every Thursday . After a brief conversation , the amendment was withdrawn , and the motion wag agreed to . The House then went into committee of supply . Several votes were taken oa account of civil sexvises and civileontingencies .
§ Utb in Anv-The adjourned debate on the second reading ef the Rate ia Aid Bill was re-8 Ufij # 3 by Mir . Bhioht , whejustified the proposed rate , not on the ground of me necessity of the case , hot on this ground—that Gceat Britain had already paid its rate in aid on accoeat of Ireland to an amount greaterihan the sum sow proposed to be levied from Ir 4 ? nd herself . He was averse to the proposal emanating from certain quarters to substitute an income-tax / or the purpose for which the rate was intended ; , for he had insjinenhle objections to jailing an iaaame-tax for the support of the poor .
But had such « tax been praposed , he was certain tS * at it would hava been opposed as much as the rate h aid had been , and , in his judgment , opposed on sraeb . b * iter grounds . Looking at the general question , in its connexion with the whole state of Ireland , he was led to think that either the malady ef that country was insurable , or there was a great lack of statesmen in the House . Ireland had for age * been entirely governed through its landlords . The , genuciong principle on which it had been roledlhrough them was still in practical operation . Th ' e p ' feot . on which the government of Ireland iffldtnirned , ' . and on which it stUl continued toreyolfe , was that of force aud arms . They had .. - . - ¦ % ? " *¦ ¦
Monday, Aran , 2. House Of Lords.—Pomsh ...
50 , 000 men in that country , armed to the teeth ., u > keep the peotle down- and they were annually voting awav large sums of money to keep them up ; * , n other words , tokeep them alive . Tried by rt * . ttuits , this system was a palpable failure . Acn what alterations in the system were no * Kuposed with a view to better results ? As a measure for the regeneration of Ireland , the poor law bad proved a complete failure , and so would the rate in aid . Something more was neeesiai- ?— something whichi instead of dealing with its mere symptoms , wou ' d attack the disease at its very root . At present the rich were menaced with ruin , and the poor with starvation . The government was highly reprehensible in not having come forward with some large and earnest
measures for the regeneration of Ireland . The plan proposed by Sir R . Peel was , in its main features , admirable , although he was inclined to regard It as a little vague iu the shape in which it had been proposed . The right hon . baronet seemed to shrink from throwing a great deal of Irish land at once int'i the market , as such a course -would lower Its price . Bat he could assure the right hon . baronet that neither Englishmen nor Scotchmen would invest their capital in Irish land unless it were very cheap . The hon . gentleman then proceeded to review the whole system of real property tenure in Ireland , inveighing against ths strict and cumbrous system of entaiU existing in that country , against the law of primogeniture and its consequences , against
complicated titles , and the pride and extravagance of the Irish gentry . In the state of the land question lay the real difficulty of the country . They must free the land , aud facilitate its transfer , ere they could hope to effect anything like a permanent regeneration of Ireland . To do so was no doubt somewhat difficult ; but there were modes in which it might b t speedily done . The hon . member thus concluded his speech : Let the landlords of Ireland say whether the state in which they had been living was not worse than anything he proposed ? ( Hear , hear . ) Nor let it he said that he would injure aristocratical and territorial influence . What were thaae worth now ? ( Hear . ) What was Ireland itself worth ? ( Hear , hear . ) Was it not to the whole world the
symbol ' and token of our disgrace —( hear , hear)—and to an overtaxed people the source of amazing expense ? ( Hear , hear . ) Or was it said that we should weaken the union ? Why , there had been no honest attempt yet to make a union with . Ireland ; we had had a union with Ulster , but never with the whole of Ireland . ( Hear , hear . ) Surely , if ever there was a great opportunity for a statesman , it was the present . ( Cheers . ) This was undoubtedly " the hour" and we wanted " the man . " ( Hear ; hear . ) The noble lord at the head of the government had dine many things for his country - , and had shown upon some occasions as much courage as in the state of public opinion it was necessary for a statesman to show ; but on this Irish question he seemed to shrink
from fairly meeting the difficulty , ( Hear , hear ) Yet the character of his government was at stake ; hecrnld not in bis position—be he as well intentioned as he might—defend himself to his country , to the wor' 4 , to posterity , if ha remained at the head of this Imperial Legislature and still was unable or unwilling to bring forward measures for the recovery of Ireland . ( Hear . ) The noble lord at the head of the administration of affairs } n Ireland , too , must recollect , that it was not the highest effort of statesmanship to keep the peace in a country where very few men were anxious to go to war , and when he had 50 , 000 armed men and the whole power of this kinedom to back him- ( hear , hear );—if that distinguished nc-blemanintended to be known as statesman
with regard to his rule in Ireland , he must be prepared with measures of a much more practical and directlyoperative character than any he had yet initiated . ( Hear , hear . ) Let that great subscription be remembered which was raised three years ago for Ireland , when there came funds from the uttermost parts of the earth—ft om the Pope and the Grand Signior , from Bed Indians in North America , and from slaves in Carolina ; what could we say to all those contributors , who must he anxious to know whether anything had been done to prevent the recurrence of such a calamity ? ( Hear . ) We must acknowledge to them that our boasted constitution utterly failed to grapple with this question . ( Hear . ) Talk not of our country having had peace while so
many thrones in Europe had been overturned ; ten up all the lives lost by the convulsions of the past year in Europe , the cessation of trade , the ruin of industry , the breaking of hopes and of hearts , and it could not be compared for an instant with the agonies that had been endured by our own popular ! : n under our " glorious constitution . " ( Hear , hear . ) Let us beware of laying the calamity at the door of " Providence . " The proraisesof God were not withdrawn ; there was still sunshine and shower , seed-time and harvest ; the affluent bosom of the earth yet offered sustenance for man . But man must do his part . ( Hear , hear , ) We must do ours . ( Hear . ) We must abandon the errors and the crimes of our past legislation . We must free the land —( hear , bear ) ;—
and we should find that ic was upon industry , hopeful and remunerative , free and inviolate , that we must build , as on a sure foundation , a permanent edifice of union and peace . The honourable gentleman , on resuming his seat , was greeted with cheers from & ll S 1 QCS The Marquis of Gbanby , after eulogising Mr . Bright ' s speech as one of the ablest that had been made on the subject under consideration , proceeded to animadvert upon the conduct of the government , which still contented itself with proposing temporary expedients , when la « -ge , permanent , and comprehensive measures were what *« as wanted . At the commencement of the session the government excused themselves for not submitting such measures , on the
ground that they wished , before doing so , to be put in possession of the views of the Irish people . To get at these a select committee was appointed ; but now , although the views of the Irish people were before the government , no effort was made , or apparently even meditated , in the direction of permanent remedial measures . To the rate in aid he had various objections , some of which were connected with the imperfect valuation which prevailed in Ireland . The present misery of that country was chiefly attributed to the famine but in his opinion the want of employment had as much to do with it as had the famine . He agreed with Sir Robert Peel , that it was essential that they should substitute for the potato cereal crops in Ireland . But this they could not do , until
they converted the cottier into the labourer for wages . He could not support the plan of the government , because he regarded it both as unjust and impolitic . Instead of raising the distressed unions to a level with those which were prosperous , it would degrade all to the samelevel of hopeless wretchedness . Air . Fortescub preferred an income tax for Irish purposes to the proposed rate in aid . Mr . Disraeli commenced by paying a high compliment to Mr . Bright , to whose speech , he said , he had listened with that degree of interest which he always took in any demonstration of intellect which sustained the character oi that assembly . II * then proceeded to recapitulate the leading features of the government policy towards Ireland since the
beginning of the session , and strongly censured Ministers for their obstinate persistence in temporary expedients , unaccompanied by those remedial measures the introduction of which should have been simultaneous with the proposal of palliatives . Reverting to the bill "before the House , be observed that the first duty of the House was to consider whether the proposition which it embodied was or was not an adequate proposition . For reasons which he stated , he believed it to be utterly adequate to the purposes which it was submitted to effect . If the government really expected that it would effect its object , the proposition must mean more than it expressed . In addition to its being inadequate , it was also impolitic . That from which Ireland suffered
most was want of capital . Was a measure which would reduce the amount of Irish capital a wise one ? Besides being fiscally inadequate and politically indiscreet , the measure was obnoxious to other objections . His strongest objection to it was that it was illusory , being essentially a deceptive proposition for levying a national rate , to which the whole nation could not contribute . The measure was also unjust , and English members were warring against their own interests ia lending it their countenance and support . These being the reasons why he opposed the measures on the table , he came to the consideration of the plan submitted hy Sir Robert Peel . It was important i that the House should at once consider whether or not that plan was entitled to its confidence . The
characteristic feature of that scheme was , that , in some way or other , the state was to appropriate to itself those vast regions which were now the scenes of so much misgovernment and misery , and which , under a happier management , might lead to the regeneration of Ireland . It other words , the regeneration of Ireland was to be effected by a change m the tenure of land . He could not but infer from the scheme , as developed , that Sir R . Peel anticipated a considerable home colinisation in Connaught . But he ( Mr . Disraeli ) saw every difficulty in the way of planting forced colonies in the west , and every danger in planting them if they could succeed in so doing . The colonies planted by James L were sustained , in the midst of difficulties , by a community of relig ious feeling and sentiment . But no such element of success would enter into the
colonies anticipated in the west . The farmers who would be planted there would be mostly Protestants , and a religious struggle would arise , which in addition to the adverse claims of the population already on the spot , would render it necessary for the colonists to arm to maintain themselves in their new locations . Sueh a state of things would assuredly be no step taken towards the regeneration of Ireland . But it mig ht be said that colonies would not necessarily be planted in Connaught , but that the land would be managed and cultivated hy a High Commission . But such a commission could not act more to the advantage of the public than the boards already in existence . Another great feature of the right hon . gentleman ' s scheme was to be found in the Parliamentary titles which were to be set up in & portion of Ireland . But such titles set up in these parts of Ireland would be unjust to
Monday, Aran , 2. House Of Lords.—Pomsh ...
proprietors In other parts of Vhe country . He oh " jected , therefore , to the ri ght hon . gentleman ' s Scheme , inasmuch as his colonies would be Impolitic , his management by a commission would be nugatory , and his parliamentary titles would be unjust . Objecting , then , as he did to the measure of the government , and to the scheme of the rig ht hon gentleman , he would support Mr . Herbert in the proposition which he was about to submit to substitute an income tax in Ireland for the rate in aid . But in addition to an income tax , which should be applied to reproductive works for the relief of the poor , they must also diminish the area of taxation , and apply a stringent poor law test . Lord Jom * Ba-s seu . followed , commencing his
speech with a vindication of the measure before the House , which , in replying to Mr . Disraeli , he denied to be unjust , inadequate , or illusory . If the Irish members preferred an income tax , which income tax was to be paid into the Imperial Exchequer , and Ireland afterwards in case of need , to be relieved therefrom , he was not sure that tho government would offer them any very strenuous opposition to the adoption of such a tax . But he was notwilling to dwell at any great length upon the subject of the rate in aid , seeing that questions of a much larger character had been introduced into the debate . The noble lord then , after addressing himself to those who urged the government to propound some scheme which would have the magical effect
of immediately regenerating Ireland , adverted to the circumstances under which the extended poor Law of 1847 had been introduced into Ireland . A proposal was now made to revert to the principles of the law of 1838 , and to make the workhouse the test of destitution . Had it not been for the famine this test would not perhaps have been departed from . In the present circumstances of Ireland , it would be next to impossible immediately to return to that test . The poor law was not only a measure of humanity for the sake of relief , but also a measure of police for the sake of security . It was essential to maintain it in Ireland , but he was not only ready to admit that several amendments might be made in it , but had actually himself proposed
several in the committee now sitting . He was of opinion , for instance , that improvements should not for some time be assessed to the poor rate ; that there should be a maximum rate in each electoral division ; and that the area of taxation in the south and west should be , to some extent , diminished . Many suggestions had been made in reference to emigration , and complaint was made that the voluntary emigration now going on was drawing capital from Ireland . But much of the capital employed in the emigration now going on came from America ; and he feared that if the government promised any great aid for the purpose of emigration , the remit " tances from emigrants for the emigration of their friends would either whollv or nartially cease . He
then came to the consideration of the plan proposed by Sir Robert Peel . The first point which he proceeded to consider was , whether it would be of any advantage to have a commission for the special purpose of dealing with the question relating to lands in the south and west . Such a commission must either have compulsory powers or be of a mere voluntary character . It could not lead to the imitation of what had been done in Ulster in the time of James I . Then the government had possession of the land , and the people were not on it . Now the state had not possession of the land , and the people were still on it . If the object of the commission was to facilitate the transfer of property , he was afraid it would lead to disappointment . He
admitted that much yet remained to he done to amend the laws which encumbered the transfer of property . But any process for facilitating transfer must be conducted with every regard to the existing rights of property . He admitted , in reply to Mr . Disraeli , that it was tho intention of government to propose a loan of money in aid of some railways in Ireland , but denied that its decision to do so was the adoption in piecemeal of the plan proposed by the late Lord George Bentinck . There were other amendments than those to which he had alluded , which might be effected in the poor
law , and which might be introduced during the course of the session . But he feared that no measure which might be introduced would satisfy those who looked for everything at the hands of the government . There were many evils in the present state of Ireland to which no government could apply a direct remedy , hi conclu sion he asked the House to agree to the measure now before it—a measure which would give some breathing time , and some hope , to many who might otherwise not see an autumn s sun . Mr . Joun O'Connell then moved the adjournment of the debate .
After some conversation , it was adjourned tul Tuesday , on the understanding that hon . members who had motions on the paper would throw no obstructions in the way of the debate being resumed at the meeting of the House . Sir G . Grey then moved for , and obtained , leave to bring in a Bill for the Improvement of the Public Health in Scotland . This bill would substantially apply the provisions of the English bill to Scotland . The House adjourned at halt-past twelve o'clock . TUESDAY , Arnu 3 . HOUSE OF LORDS . —The royal assent was given by commission to the following bills : —The Mutiny Bill ; the Marine Mutiny Bill ; the Indemnity Bill ; , the Larceny Acts Amendment Bill ; and Waldy ' s Divorce Bill .
Adjournment op the House . —Tho Marquis of Lansdowne moved that the House , at its rising , do adjourn to Thursday , the 19 th inst . Agreed to . Austria and Sardinia . —Lord Brougham might again be allowed to express a hope , before the adj ournment for the Easter recess , that this country would leave the mediation between Austria and Sardinia entirely to France . The noble and learned lord then proceeded to condemn the French National Assembly for their blustering talk about preserving the integrity of Piedmont , which was no more menaced than the integrity of Russia . The
noble and learned lord proceeded to say that it was important that the feeling of that House should not be misrepresented , particularly in a neighbouring kingdom . He was , therefore , very anxious to state that it was untrue what had been stated in some of the newspapers of the day , that when he spoke the other night of the universal Joy and exultation which all parties had expressed upon the late glorious results of the short ( and for that reason the more glorious ) campaign in Piedmont—the statement was received with cries of " No , no , " and ¦« Oh , oh . " That was contrary to the truth . Their lordships adjourned at six o ' clock .
HOUSE OP COMMONS . —Mr . ^ LABOucHEM * postponed the bringing up of the report on the Navigation Bill till Thursday , the 19 th inst . The ArroRNEr-GENEHAi obtained leave to bring in the following measures : —Bills for giving effect to the stipulations of a treaty between her Majesty and the Queen of Portugal for the apprehension of certain deserters , and for facilitating the administration ofjustice at the Central Criminal Court and at sessions of the peace near the metropolis . The adjourned debate on the second reading of
the Bate in Aid Bill was then resumed ; and Mr . John 0 'Connem < , Mr . Lawless , Lord Claude Hamilton , Mr . S . Crawfobd , Mr . Monsell , Mr . Horsman , Sir A . Brooke , Major Bi / Ackam ,, Mr . Tbnnent , and Mr . Drummond , opposed the measure ; which was advocated by Mr . W . Brown , SirD . Norreys , and Mr . Heysolds . After a few words from Captain Archdall , the House divided , and the numbers were ( the division being on Mr . Hamilton ' s amendment , that the bill be read a second time that day six months )—be read a second time that day six months )—
For the amendment 138 Against it 193 Majority against ——55 The amendment having been rejected , the bill was read a second time without a division . Mr , P . Scbofe moved for leave to bring in a bill to promote the employment of labour in Ireland by a proportionate exemption from poor rate , the principle of which was objected to by Mr . Stafford and by Lord John Russeil ; but the peremptory
rejection ot the bill was deprecated by Mr . Mangles , Colonel Dunne , and Sir R . Peel , who recommended that the motion be withdrawn , and repeated at a more convenient hour for discussion . Several members , however , desiring to see the bill , the House divided , and the motion for its introduction was adopted by 108 to fifteen , the Ministers voting with the majority , Mr . Locke moved for leave to bring in a hill to secure to the public on Sundays a limited and reasonable use of railways ; which was opposed by Mr . Forbes . * '
Mr . Labodcherb had great doubt whether it was expedient or right to pass such a compulsory measure with reference to Scotland , but thought it would be ungracious to reject the motion . After a discussion of some length , a division took place , when the motion was carried by fifty-eight to twenty . The House adjourned at two o ' clock .
WEDNESDAY , April 4 . HOUSE OP COMMONS . —Friendlt Societies Biu # . —Mr . Sotheron moved the second reading of this bill , which he stated iwas intended to remedy some imperfections in the existing law . By the act last passed for the regulation otFriendly Societies , it was required that an actuary , of five years ' standing , should ^ ertify that the rates and contributions of each stfeiety were sufficient fairly to meet the liabilities , and the present bill provided that such competent authorities should also certify both the rules and tables of each society . By the recent statute , it was further provided that every five years a computation should be forwarded to the registrar-general , but there was no provision that that computation should be made out by a competent person . The present bill provided that tils computation should be made by an actuary of five years standing . He had fixed the fee fortius work at one guinea ia this bill ; but he would pronose in flonmittee thai the fee should varySrBX

number of members in the society , heginrj ^ g with one guinea , when there were not m ^ ro than 200 members , and giving two guineas when the number was between 200 and 400 three guineas between 400 and TOO , four guineas between 700 and 1 , 000 , and so on inproportton . This fee would not ex-CCed Id . every ^ ye years to e ach member , and for that sum every member would be able to know with certainty the solvency of the society to which they belonged He would also provide that a return not SO strict , and not made out by an actuary , should be sent in every year to the registrar , who would have form these returns to make out a paper to be laid annually before parliament , in order that they might be thus enabledto collect a mass of information on this most imnortant tonic . It was not general y known
how verv large a proportion of the population oi this country were subscribers tothis class of societies The present bill would affect not less than 34 , 200 societies , having a gross number of members exceeding 4 , 600 , 000 , and receiving annually a sum of more than £ 6 , 000 , 000 , principally composed Of the savings of poor men . ( Hear , hear . ) The suojectwas , therefore , one well deserving the attention of parliament , more particularly this year , after what had happened with regard to some savings banks , and also after what had taken place in other countries , as it was their duty to see that the poor should not be cheated if they could prevent it . A suggestion had been thrown out by an honourable member opposite with regard . to burial money , and if a clause on that subject were drawn up , he should be most happy to take it into consideration .
The Attobkev Geseral said he entirely approved of the object of the bill . He supposed that some arrangement was intended to be made , by which the certifying hamster would be prevented from receiving £ 6 , 000 or £ 7 , 000 a-year from those 34 . 000 societies-daughter)—and he also was stronir / r of opinion that the imperfection of the arrange , meats with regard to burial societies ought to be consuferea , and , if possible , corrected . Mr . It . Palmer said that he thought the condition of friendly societies was a matter of great importance . He hoped that the Odd Fellows' societies would not be overlooked . If any fraud were committed in these latter societies there were at present no means , either in law or equity , by which a remedv could be provided , This was a matter of very serious consideration , when they bore » n mind the vast number of members belon ^ " nj » to the Odd Fellows' societies . In the Manchester society alone there
were no less than 264 , 000 members , paying an annual contribution of £ 396 , 000 ; and other societies in connexion with it had 390 , 000 members , with a proportionate amount of subscriptionc . ( Hear . ) The biUof last session referring to them failed , because some of the members were unwilling to be placed under the regulation of law ; but surely that was not a reason why Parliament ehould not legislate upon the matter . ( Hear . ) The ATTOE-VEr-GENEBAL said that his former remark did not refer to the Odd FeUows' societies , because , tj-ong " highly useful , they were not legal societies . The bdl of last session was introduced in the House of Lords . The Ulegality of these societies consisted in the secret signs used , and the system of corresponding by branches . Some were willing to give up the signs , but not the corresponding societies . The government were anxious to do aU that could be done to legalise thise societies , and bring them within the sanction of the law .
A discussion then ensued between Mr . Brotherton , Mr . Adderley , Mr . Hume , the Attorney-General , Mr . H . Herbert , Mr . E . Denison , Mr . P . Scrope , Lord Dudley Stuart , and Mr . C . Lewis , all admitting the benefit of these societies , and tiiat some measure ought to be framed for the security and benefit of all—when the bill was read a second time , and ordered to be referred to a Select Committee . , ., The House then adjourned to Monday , the 16 th of April .
( From our Third Edition of last week . ) FRIDAY , March 30 . HOUSE OF COMMONS . —Rate in Am Bill . — The adjourned debate on the Hate in Aid Bill was resumed by Mr , Napier , in opposition to the measure , and was followed on tne same side by Mr . Shafto Adair , Captain Batesov , and Mr . Henry Grattan . Sir Robert Peel , in a speech of upwards of two hours' duration , supportedthe measure , and repeated the principle of his plan generally shadowed forth in the discussion of a formtr evening , for the rege * neration of Ireland , advocating generally sueh arrangements for the transfer of property as should encourage English capital in the cultivation of Irish land ; and proposing to effect this object by means of a commission , appointed by the crown , rather than hy the interference of the Court of Chancery . The debate was adjourned to Monday , and the adjournment of the House followed .
Destructive Fires. Serious Fire An*D Exp...
DESTRUCTIVE FIRES . Serious Fire an * d Explosion in Southwam * . —• On Monday evening , about six o ' clock , a fire broke out in the oil and colour warehouse belonging to Mr . Tilliard , No . 28 , Great Suffolk-street , nearly adjoining the Grapes Music Hall , Southwarft . The building , although of limited frontage , extended backwards a great distance , and Mere stored with oils , turpentine , sulp hur , and other articles equally combustible , independent of which , there was a large quantity of gunpowder in the shop and upper part of a warehouse . The fire originated in the cellar ,
but from what cause could not be ascertained . Whilst Mr . Tilliard and his son , a young man , were standing in the shop they were astonished at finding the flooring move ns if shaken by a smart explosion . They instantly went below to ascertain the cause , when they found the cellar in one complete sheet of fire . They retreated as they could , but the flames followed so rapidly that they were nearly circled with them . Having gained the shop the fire broke through the floor in various places , and ignited everything with which it came in contact . At that time there was a daughter of Mr . Tilliard ' s on the
premises , together with a boy about eight or nine years of age , with his sister about fivcyears old , and the shop-boy . With great difficulty they succeeded in getting into the yard with their clothes on fire . By the exertions of the neighbours and Mr . Tilliard they were dragged out of the place , and were assisted over the back wall into Revel ' s-row , and the flames about their bodies were extinguished . This had hardly been accomplished when aloud cx « plosion took place in tho shop , by which the lad in Mr . Tilliard ' s employ was thrown down and his head severely cut . He was immediately removed to Guy ' s Hospital , where he at present remains . — Engines quickly arrived , but no water could be procured from the mains in the district . The fire
having reached the upper floor prior to the arrival of the firemen , it shortly afterwards penetrated the casks filled with gunpowder , when a loud explosion took place , the noise of which could be distinctly heard in the city and in most parts of the metropolis . At the same time the roof was lifted high into the air and scattered to pieces . The front wall and the various floors were simultaneously hurled below , and numerous parties passing along or standing near the premises were thrown down , and several must have been severely injured by the falling of the bricks and timber . The noise occasioned by the explosion had barely subsided , when the house from the base to the top presented one body of flame . After the lapso of twenty minutes or half an hour
water was obtained , and the whole of the firemen having set to work , they succeeded by nine o ' clock in getting the flames entirely extinguished , when upon an examination being made the damage done was found to be most extensive . —Independent of the total destruction of Mr . Tilliard ' s premises and their contents , nearly a dozen other buildings are damaged . Amongst the number are the premises belonging to Mr . Preece , and called the Surrey Harmonic Hall , in which the valuable chandeliers and plate glass in the picture gallery are broken by the force of the explosion . The premises of Mr . Deprose , general salesman , No . 27 , in the same thoroughfare . The King ' s Arms tavern , belonging to Mr . Chedjoy ( opposite ) , has the front damaged by
tire , and the windows broken by the explosion . Mrs . J . Sanders , confectioner , has part of her premises injured , the glass vases and cases in the shop are demolished , and the windows destroyed . The Windsor Castle tavern , and several houses in Revel ' srow , at the rear of Mr . Tilliard ' s premises , arc likewise damaged . —Mr . Tilliard , who wa » partially insured in the Sun Fire-office , will lose upwards of £ 1 , 000 beyond the sum he was insured for . —An inquest was held before Mr . W . Payne , at the Grapes Tavern , Great Suffolk-street , Southwark , on Thursday , to inquire into the circumstances connected with the explosion . After hearing the evidence adduced , the jury returned a verdict , " that there was not sufficient evidence to prove how the fire occurred , " and they wished to add that great praise was due to the witness Kemplay for his exertions on the night in question , and the
great risfc ; he ran m saving the lives of the inmates . Fire is Lambeth . —About one hour previous to the above fire taking place another occurred at the hat factory of Messrs . Ashlin and Son , 55 , Cornwall-road , Lambeth . It began in the proof-maker ' s shop , in consequence of the boiling over of a copper of composition used in rendering the hats waterproof . The material being of a very inflammable character the whole compartment soon became one sheet of fire . At that period five persons were on the premises , and they were quickly surrounded with flame ; and before they could effect their eg * cape , they were all more or less injured , two of the warehousemen being so badly burned as to be obliged to be taken to Guy ' s Hospital . The engines were unable to get the mastery over the fire until the proofmakers shop was nearly burned out , and thebodymakers' shop and contents damaged by neat , « S * c . The firm , it is understood , was insured .

Fine English barley sold rather dearer , and the reduced price of foreign brought more buyers . In malt hardly any thing done . Beans and peas met a slow sale on rather loner terms . For rye little or no demand . We had a farther large arrival of forei gn oats , but good fresh corn met a readier sale at Is . reduction Since Monday last , Tares were offered at lower prices , For clorereeed very little demand . linseed cakes are fti'J y £ 1 per ton cheaper , and difficult to sell .

CATTLE . Smithfield , Monday , April 2 . —The Supply of foreign stock in to-day ' s market was very limited , yet the demand was exceedingly heavy at drooping prices . For the time of year the arrivals of beasts from our grazing districts fresh up this morning , were again extensive , and of excellent quality . The weather being somewhat unfavourable for slaughtering , and the dead markets extensively supplied , the beef trade ruled excessively heavy , at a decline on the prices of Monday last of quite 2 d per Slbs . A few verv superior Scots found buyers at 3 s fid per Slbs , but the general top quotation for beef did not exceed 3 s 4 d per gibs . At
the close of the market a large number of beasts were unsold . There was a further increase in the supply of sheep , owing to which the demand for that kind of stock was in a very sluggish state . Prime old Downs were mostly disposed of at last week ' s prices , viz ., from 4 s to 4 s 4 d per Slbs in the wool , but aU other breeds ruled 2 d per Slbs lower , at which a clearance was not effected . Lambs were in fair request , at from 5 s 4 d to 6 s 6 d per Slbs , From the Isle of Wi g ht thirty head came to hand per railway . The sale for calves was in a very inactive state , but we have no alteration to notice in prices . Pigs met a very dull inquiry , at barely last week ' s currencies .
