' . •"¦ ¦ ; . ¦ ¦ The members of hotlr-llquses worked hard in the parly part of the week ' , to make up for their holiday on the / 1 Derby Day , " but there was little novelty in any of the matters ^ under discussion . The busines s before each House was most important , but in each case tlie questions have been so long before the public ) and So . thoroughl y discussed , that there can now s ' carcclv be anything fresh said about them .
: The Irish Poor Law , with some amendments , has * at length passed the Lords , and been referred back ' to the Commons for final approval ; previously to receiving itlie royal sanetibn ,. which will convert it into law . It never was worth much , and the shaping and trimming to which it has been subjected . in its tedious , passage . through . the . two Chambers , hasjiy no means increased its practical value . Indeed , onemay already form a pretty accurate estinidte of the immediate value of this " permanent" measure , by looking at the working of the temporaryi ones . 'If-Mr PScrape ' s statement ou Tuesday nigKt respecting the Relief / . Committees , be true , that measure has > roken down ; The Government trusted themoHev
of the country and the administration of the law to the landlords . They were the . medium through which the State benevolence and aidwas to find its way to'the famishing arid fever-stricken people of Ireland . But in many ¦ instances , these temporary arrangements are not yet completed , notwithstanding three months'have elapsed / since the passing of the Act , and the Government two months ago commenced ' to act'upori the law for dismissing the men from the public works , for which these Relief Committees were to ; be a substitute . The consequences are truly horrible . - Pits are dug into which' the emaciated
bodies of the Jpobr , wretches starved ' to . death are thrown by hundreds—cofflnless . Famine and Pestilence stalk abroad and slay their- thousands . The lords of / 'the / soil : shut ; ' ' ; . themlelyes-. ; iip ia their parks and mansions , . though / even there it is found that the avenging Angel has followed them , and the . plague , their selfishness and neglect has permitted to laywastethepeopie , has also selected its viciimsfrom among the , aristocratic classes ; : In their fear other / members of that class are flying frora . thedeyoted country ; and altogether , at this inoment ; tlie affairs of Ireland present a spectacle such as was scarcely ever . before recorded' in
history . The death of the late Lord-Lieutenant happens most'unseasonably , under these circumstances ,.
