IRISHMEN IN JAMAICA . At the annaal meeting of the British and Foreign Anti-SL-wery Sccie ) y , hfeldonthe 13 th instant , the Ray . Mr . Knibb alluded , in the following terms , to the Inhuman treatment and fearful sufferings to which tho Irish emigrants to Jamaica were subjected : — I do implore this respectable assembly not to allow their feelings to ba harrowed up by the bloody and murderooa systt-m of European emigration . 1 have witnessed scenes -with reapeot to this which I shall never forget I have seated myself by the side of a poor deluded Irish emigrant , though of a different religion t » myself , and , in the absence of one whom he considered his only spiritual guide , he was glad to receive temporal and spiritual consolation from myself .
I h : ivo stood by his side , when in the deepest depths of poverty , joined to despair , and on a bed covered with rass , he has breathed his last , a dupe to this infernal scheme—( hear , hear ) . In circumstances which I could not mention to this respectable audience , have the victims ' of this accursed plan been hurried into eternity . I declare , without the least fear of being contradicted —and , if tbe House of Commons think that I cannot prove it , let them call meaa a witness toiheir bar— - ( loud cheers )—I declare that there hare been scenes in Jamaica , within the last two years , unequalled in atrocity by aU the abominations connected with the foreign slave-trade . I say this not on account of the number ; but when I think of the manner in which these poor deluded people came—when I think that
comfort was the lot of some before they left their ho : aes , and that I have stood by their bedsides , where poverty , disease , and starvation have combined to hurry them from the world—when I bava seen the misery and the last gasp of breath , and 1 have had tlie office of consigning them to the tomb—I implore , en behalf of Ireland , thiic she be rescued from a system which entails misery on all who go , and must bring do vn ths just judgment of Go : i— ( hear . ) Soconvinced was Sir'C . Metcilf of this , tba . at his request I interfered . I know his Excellency thought I could not prove what I had assorted with respect to one estate ; but an investigation was ordered . Mr Kelly , a special magistrate , was invited to Spanish Town , and his evidence was taken ; but it was bo abominably filthy that it was suppressed . I have it ,
however , and the woild p !; all hnve it too . If it is necessary to statohow I obtained it , that shall badono , for on that subject I care for no individual that breathes on earth—( cheers ) . It it but tbe other day tbat I went to one of the jails in Jamaica . I dare say a great many people will say , I had no businass there—( Isughter ) . I have business everywhere where tyranny dwells . I saw in Unit jail a poor Irish < jirl , seventeen years of age , fed npon the coarsest corn meal , without cxfr& ! or tea , or anything but water . Sedin « i her there I enquired what was her crime ; she told me tbat she had been hired by Mr . Hylton at £ 8 per year , and that hi * food was to be found her ; when he had taken her seventeen miles up the country , he told her he would only trveher £ 6 . ( Hear , hear . ) Sfie was one of the
unfortunate victims who went out in ihc Robert Iterr . For refusing to work for six pounds , what did ; the cuitf magistrate do ? He called two of his brother magistrates into his houso to dine , and after dinner they held n , court in the house , and sentenced Ibis poor Irish girl , who had not b ^ n in the islmd tbree wenJfs , to pay a fine of three pounds , or , in & fault of linding aaoAa upon which it could be levied , to imprisonment for fiiteen days . ( Hear . ) Tho moment J saw her ' 'I said , " I will psy the money , nnd you can come out " ( Cheers . ) The poi * girl had been walked barefooted seventeen miles under a burning sun to a jail , in which she was placed for fourteen days in tbe midst of ; i deadly moress . I had her taken care of in the ' mansion house . I said t > thejr . ler , " Give me a wpy . of htr
coniniitiuent ; " ho replied , "I dare not do it ; what would the rnaci > trates siy ? " I answered , "I don"t care whether you durst or not , but ycu shall : jmu know tbat every person has a right to a cepy < -f their commitment , anil I demand it on behalf of this poor Rirl . " "¦ ( Cheers . ) And here it is— " Whcreiis , E zi Kennedy , an immiprant , located on Kttirement , the property cf Thonia 3 Kiukatts Hylton , E ^ q ., has been convicted before us , D ^ 7 id MesuR , sell-, cr ; d D ; v ; d Masoa , juh ., E ^ qrs ., two of her Majesty ' s justices of the-peace , for tho parish of Westmoreland , of re f using "— : niad how logical lh ( -y are — " to do the cuty ste had agretd U | wn to per / oun to the said Thomas Hickotts Hylton , and has been sentenced to pay a file cf three pouivlc sterling , or , in

( Loud laughter . ) And wherpas no goods to luvy on have , been f ; uv . d ; thtso are in her Majesty ' s name . " I'thought-my first rfuty w .- ) s to tell tho governor about thii 1 , I wrote to Djnk-1 OConnell , but I think the Post-office stopped the letter . Ycu shnU have the trovtrnor s reply : — " Sir , I am directo < i to acknowieik'fi the receipt of your letter of ti : e 26 thult .

HOUSE OF COMMONS , Feiday , May 27 . The House went into Committee on the Tariff question ; as to the duty to be Itvied ftora ttain and spermaceti oil , blubber , and whalo flna , Mr . Lyall moved to postpone the commencement of these imposts from the dates imposed in the tarifF , to certain periods of the years 1843 and 1844 respectively . In this he was supported by Mr . G . Palmer , Mr . Hawes , and Mr . Chapman , upon ground ? peculiar to the oil trade , and to the adventurers in the whale fishery , who hnd gone out without notice of the proposed reduction . Sir . C . Napier , concn : re-din the motion , for the sake of that important nursery of seamen the mercantile marine ; which he gristly feared was on the decline , while the competing marine of foreigners seemed to be increasing . : . ¦
Sir It . Peel and Mr . Gladstone resisted the extension of timy , mainly on account of the vory high prices incident to this fluctuating trade , referred to an cfficial return ol the mercantile marine in the years IS 40 and 184 i , from which it eppeared that the numbers of British seamen and ships , arid the amount of British tonnage , had been considtrably greater in the latter than iu the foitner of those years ; While the foreign marine exhibited , on the contrary , a gre : < t diminution in 1811 , as compared with 1840 . Loni J . RUSSELL and Mr . O . Buller argued for the extension of the time , on ( he ground that if the tariff was properly a'tjuHed in allowing any extension at all , it ought to allow snch att exiens ; on as would do compieie justice to all the persons engaged in the now pen ( iij ; g voyages .
Capt-iin FlTZROY doubted the conclusion drawnfrpm the comparison of tho years 1840 and 1841 ; and expressed his disapprobation of many provisions in our navigation lawu '; ' but made some admisiions respecting the present stute of the fisheries and of the prices , upon which Sir K . Peel founded another earnest exhortation to the House that they should permit , without further extension of the time , a reduction , so obviously necessary for tile relief of manufacturing and other consumption , . The Committee , on division , decided against the extension . On the schedule relating to timber , Mr . Hawes and other Members : objected not to the duties , but to tho syKtem of nicasurvment on which it 'S proposed to levy them ; which ' system Mr . GLADSTONE and Sir 11 . Peel defended on ihe authority of practical
men . Mr . Chapman carried his objections further , re ^ monstrating against the maiu principle of the proposed reductions on timber . Mr . Hume recoainiendcd it to Government to make the reductions at once , instead of pos'poning them to October '; for , as carpenters and Others who had no stock of wood in hand , miist postpone their purchases of that artic e until after the ' --reduction , it was plain that in the interval there would be ho employment for tbe workmen . Tljs sa ^ estion vrns resisted by other menibers on behaU of tUc fivimtrous parties nt present possessing stock ; v . nd Sir R . PEEL was of opinion th : ltjustice to those parties precluded-him from altering the course which he hnd-announced . -, and on the fiiith whereof they had buen acting . Themode of measurement , howevtr , was-iv snVjoct which ho would reconsider , though not at ^ resent inclined to alter the view he had already
taken of it . Tho Committee then ai ' -jnirned , and the Hcubc having resumed , Mr . C Bullek brought on his motion for referring it to Mr . Roebuck ' s committee to inquire intj a coirupt coinpromiae alleged' to have been made by Mr . Warburton respecting the Bridport election . In the casts of Nottii'ghaui and of the other places included in tho charge of Mr . Roebuck , the allegations of bribery andofcamprprhi . se retted only upon rumour , but here they rented on the direct evidence of Mr . Warburton hinuelf , contained in a petition to the House ; and on
tho facftliat no-fewer than h * fty-one BCtions had been brousjiit ' for- bribery aeainst Mr . Mitchell , One of the sitting Members , and discontinued in pursuance of the K ' .-neriil compromise' respecting the Bridpott election . That this conipromise was made in a former , an . l not in the' r . nfont , session , was a frivoldus distinction . Mr . Buller then stated the circuinstunces of compromise severe ; 1 y uftlctint ? Mr . Mitche'l and tha other sitting Member , Mr . Cochrcne . Ho thought . 'it should be . strong adiUtiom-d re ; ir . t » n with tbe House in favour ot his motion , that the case was one involving the characters of two of its- Members .
Mr . COCHRANE then entered into the details of the cas « . first , as c- ^ iVaarned his o wn ¦¦ ¦ coiyluct , anvl second ' y , a " s concerned the conduut .. . of Mr . Wurburton , of which ho considered , himself a 3 having reason to coi / tplain . The Hun .. Menibnr , in the Gvurse cf hia pr > fcoch , repeated v . anous p : &sa-ges from the conversations and corrtupouilcnce 'between himself aiifl Mr . Warburton , which- ra'sod ivptated rears of laughter at the simplicity « .-f- that eminent Reformer , and at his niixic . ty to preserve his reputation for purity amidst the potent odour of his own admissions of corruption .
Nc : « came the turn of Mi . Mitchbll , vrho made : i stiiletner . tof his own case , controverting' much of Mr . 'Warb . urton ' s petition , and throwing very serieus censure on his conduct . Ho' Cistinguisufd this case from the cases referred' to Mr . Ko . cbiick ' s comvnittee . In each ( f those iristances one of the sitting Members bad made a tacit admission of guilt by rt-tiring ; but lie bad not retired ; he had manfully stood his ground , yr . dk ^ pt it . And as to the actions against him fov bribery , they Lad teen bronght , he belitved , fur the pvirpose of frightening him , and had been abandoned bc-cause it was felt that tlity cculd not ba p . iaintriinfcti .
SirT . Wilde said that the admissions of-the two preceding sj > t :: ktr ' s had Jeft no doubt as to the existence of'fact-i w ' h-ch required i : ivistiga ( -5 on by the committee . Afy . r . oouhviting t ' . Heuse fv , r tho cherts 0 ? derision with v .-inc ^ L cj ; ey hud re ceived the quotations fro m Mr . Warbu ' rton ' a conversations and lotrors , bo proceeded to defend tfcat genta'tnaii , and to retort upon his accusers . It was-rcmaifcable , that Mr . Wirtbucton sought in ^ quiry , and ' t . !; at his accusers resisted it . There had beiin a resignation of a seat in this case as well as in the others , namely , the rts : gnation of Mr . Warburton ; on . ' what-j-istground , ih ^ en , could the reference to tue
commiUt / . ! bs opposed ? SicJdii . N Walsh moved , as an amondirient , that Mr .

Sir R .

volved in the investigation of the bribery committed at all the places denounced before it ; but nevertheless he would consent to the proposed reference . ¦ Sir R Tnglis said that this jurisdiction belonged , by law , to Election Committees . ; Lord PALJiEBSTON questioned whether a ' compproinise was necessarily illegal or , culpable . Indeed , the statutes seemed rather to recognise the legality of such arrangemehtfl . He ¦ would rather amend the law both as to compromise and as to bribery , than enter upon these enquiries into particular cases .

Lord Stanley observed , that Mr . C . Buller ' s mstien was in two separate clauses ; the first affirming the expediency of an enquiry , and the second delegating that enquiry to Mr . Roebuck ' s Committee . He was prepared to vote at present only for the first of those two clauses . ; Mr . George Banks warned the Honae against a precedent which would fee used . by every disappointed candidate . Mr .

Monday , May 30 ' Mr . Thomas DinvcoMBE presented a petition from John Wren , of Southampton , effrfring to isiake certain disclosures rtlating to the bribery practised at the last and preceding elections , if he were protected by indemnity . On the motion that the petition be printed , a somewhat animated and singular debate ' arose , ' which , however , ended in the . ' motion being agreedjto . The Witnesses' Indemnity Bill passad through , committee . .- : - : ' . ¦ ¦ ' ¦ ¦ ' Sir R . Peel moved the order of the day for tfee third reading of the Property Tax Bitt . Ga the . question " that the bill be now read a third time" being put ,
Mr . S . Grawsord rose to bring forward , as an amendment , the niotic-n of which he bad given notice ; and which was as follows : — " That , as by theexisting laws a large proportion of the people of this realm are excluded from voting for Members of Parliament , and as it also appears by the reports of different election committees that corrupt practices have been used to an extraordinary extent in procuring the return of Members to this pjescnt House . cf \ Commons , and as , from both these causts , this House caonot be considered a fair representation of , the people , it is , therefore , unfit that any systtnvof increased taxation should bei imposed by Pariiament until all juat causes of complaint with regard to the mode of electing the Members of this House 8 lialt be firat redressed . " .
The Hon . Member , who spoke in an exceedingly low tone of voice , and was most indistinctly heard , was understood to commence his observations by saying ,, he thought it was necessary for the House to consider whether they were in a condition to adopt a mode of taxation hitherto unprecedented , except in ' the case of an European war , and bo felt he should not do his duty as a representative of the people and pledged to protect their rights , if he did not now rise to oppose such a principle of taxation as that now presented for the final adoption of the House . It could hardly be necessary for him at this time to prove that the principle of taxation and representation oupht to co-exist and be identical . That principle had been asserted in the time of Cliarise I . and " of '¦ William' -III .,
and was recognised by the jealousy with which any interference by the Houae of Lords with money bills was regarded . This jealousy arose from the rule that all money or tax bi . Is must originate in the G ^ nimona House of Parliament , on the great princip ' e that the people ought only to bo taxed by themselves through their representatives . But were the people under the present system at present representt-d in that House ? It might be said that because property waa represented the people were virtually represented j but he ( Sir . S . Crawford ) denied that there was even a virtual representation of a great portion of tbe property , of the country . But if they looked to the st ; it 3 of tue suffrage of the people at large , there was rot evea a pretence of representation . If they compared the amount cf
population with the number of electors—if they compared the numbers of those who had the suffrage with those who had not , it would appear from returns which from time to time , bad been moved for by various Hon . Members , that in England and Wales the number of electors , as compared with the amount of population , was in the proportion of I to 18 ^ , in Scotland of 1 to 30 , and in Ireland of 1 to 57 ; and , in the United Kingdom on the average as 1 to 44 , ( Hear , hear . ) But these evils had been aggravated "by corrupt practices in the return of meinbura in cu immenstt degree . The house had by reports of its own committees , by the declaration of Members of Pdrlianicnt themselves , and by various other means , uudeniabl e evidence of the corrupt state of the rep esentation ;
but he required ' no stroDger pvoot of that corruption than the fact that had been elicited by tha motion of tho Hon . Member for Finsbury ( Mr . T . Duncombe ) , when he desired to apply a-test to the Members who hiigtfo-b& called upon to serve on the committeeto be appointed pursuant to the motion carried by the Hon . and Learned Member for Bath . That test was to the effect that the individuals appointed had not themselves been guilty of any illegal expenditure in procuring their own returns to Parliament , and that motion had been resisted on the ground tbat the test would upset the desired inquiry ; inasmuch as a sufficient number of Members could not be found who , by taking the test could serve on the committee . So that the House , by the 1 ejectijn of that motion , had condemned itself , and no wonder then
that it should stand condemned in the eyes of tho country . Again , if reference were made to the reports of election committees , made ( as we understood ) during the present Parliament , it would be found that no less than forty towns and other places returning Members to Parliament were tainted with corruption : ; in other places compromises hid been effected to prevent exposure of corrupt practices , and in others gross bribery had been proved to exui . Was it not necessary-then on these grounds that the Housa should take into its consideration , the means for making tbat House the fair representation of the people ? On a fornisr occasion he had statod the . remedies he had to suggest Those remedies chiefly werean extension of the suffr . ige , an imnroved distribution of
the electoral districts , the vote by ballot , and the shortening the duration cf Parliaments . He should not now dwell upon those propositions , which the House refu 3 ed to adopt , when ho niaJe them . The Honse had refused them again when they negatived the motion of the Hon . Member for ' Finrbury , though that motion was based upon the -pvititioh of upwards of three millions of tha poopie , and he '| Mr . S .-Crawford ) now . called on those who had . 'joined iu those refusals to name what . remedies they would propose for tho great mass of evils which were kitowu to exist , and to niiike that house a just , fair , and free representation of the people . It ; had been urged as an argument against reform , ih-dt the people had prospered under the old system of representation . ' Hh&txii'uinbut could
not now avail , because it could not bo denied that universal distress prevailed tlvniughout the whole kingdom , and afforded a distinct proof cf bad legislation . The people-eonip ]; iined- tlwf ' thc lecislatioii of that House was class legislation , r . nd in proof they pointed to the Corn Laws and to the Ntw Po&r Law . They referred also to the extravagant expenditure in all departments of the state , and th > y complained that this Property Tax was imposed to Hen-ay the expences of the wata now cavrying on in India and in Ciiiha—wars as unjust , v . b they were iitipdlitic If a corroboration of this were wanted , it existed in a paper which had been signed by all the tiie Bir-Hiiu ^ uam delegates to the Guuipieto Suffrage Ccufereuce . la this , aft ' . r deploring the
recent disasters and losses in Affgbanistan , the paper went on to say that the wars both iu China and Affgbanistttn , having origiuattfdin unfairnesa and injustice , cannot be expected to terminate except in national disgrace . Such were the sentiments of the great body of tbe delegates , and the paper must , he concaved , ' be considered as a very fair test of tlio : feelings cf the people . " If the people ' s voi&i , " ' they ' said , " had a just ' . ahare in tho delib-avations of the representative ' s , such wsi-8 would not have been . undejtaken ;' " ' The delegates also advevtud in this paper to the ; war in Canada , and they ' stated-that that war was an attempt t ) put the minority of . the . ¦ petip ' lo of vhat country ove > - the majority , contrary to the opinion av . d wishes , of their Houaa of Commons . If the peopl&hsd baiij jastly
ruprosuiited such a war , aa that wculd hwv&r . 'h ' & . Ye taken place . In his opinion , it would . be unsafu for the House of Commons to tax the peopla , if tbe people did not thii . k that they weie . fairly represented . ' Jls ah illustration of this he might refer to the result of the proceedings . which Charles I . and James II . originated for tho taxation cf the people wiihou ;; their consent . The people rose agdns * . them . Sj it might be with a Parliament which . attempted to impose taxes 1 without properly responding to the popular voice ; the people might be driven to resistance . / It might be asked , it the motion -were carried , what were the results which he could expect from it ? He txpectod that if it were earned the
immediate effect would be that the Hcuse would proceed to take into consideration the state of the representation , or else to have a ne w Parliament altogether . Thia was his object ; but he did not call on the House to adopt the principles of the Charter ; he asked only tbat , tht-y should bo ready to redreBs all just cauies of conipiaiut against tho present defective repres «\ t ;\ tive systtm . He had only tO ' -sny that th s motion was made with no party views , aii . d " so Lt ^ hoped it would bo understood giniirdiiy ; but , cciieui-. ii ; g in the view that reprcs-nlation aud ' taxation -w ' ti-c iutiuVa .

THE NEW POOK LAW . —PUBLIC MEEHNe IN LiNCASHIBE . ( From a Correspondent ) The statements of the Bight Hon . Secretary for ^ tho Home Department relating " to the -working of tbe ^ ew Poor La .- ?? Bill in tbe out-townships ot large towns , made in his place in the House of Commons , appears to have given great offence , not only to tha operatives who suffer " under the Bill , bat to the overseers , Guardians , and iml ! - ovrcers -who manage it in the oat-townaaips of the manufacturine districts .
The township of Newton , in the parish of Maachsster , coataiiirg a population of about 7 , 000 persons , instead of b ^ hrs ; beneStted ( according to the statements of Sir J- 'V-iv * lirj ' uam ) by btinc u ' . tiched to the Union of a h , V- totra , hss had iia pa .: r-r ? . tea doubled since it has be * 1 under the operation uf Tav New Poor Law Bill , and tb : . s does not r . visa from increased distress in tha townships , but from the sums they have had to pay to an extensive Union for the purpose of defraying the enormous rxpecccs of officials under the new law . Tba lareest amount that tho township of Newton Heath paid for the relief of the poor for one year during three vears prior to its beiug placed under ths ban of tbe
Poor law Commissioners was £ 31 12 s . Id . This was in 1840 , when distress was very prevalent , and two cotton-mills were , from the depression of trade , compelled to cease working . During the past year , when only one unli is stopped , n . nd tbu distress by no means so grea ; aa in 1840 , they have betn tailed iipeu to pay £ 660 133 . 6 < L to the Union ; and I have tho authority of the assitt-Jit-overseer or lelieving officer for stating that tha poor nre much worse fe-t than -whan the expendivurc was less , and tho pocr managed by local protectors .
This is f- > und to be the case in most of the onttoKuship ; atuichtd to large Unions in the nianufactcring districts , ni-d yet on the llih of May Sir James Graham is reported to have sui . i , >; Jcdgiig from the ex-in ; pie of 3 Ir . Ev . -hesttr . r . nd the great advantages which had there octarr ^ d from th ^ unitin ; : of the adjoining districts uccier oue Board cf Guiruians , he would noi wish to prevent , the uciun of tuiai diitriets with large towns . Ec tiiou ^ ht a ttrking example was afforded by Manchester of the treat advantages resulting from the union of districts with large towns . " In oidtr to show Sir Jaraes Graham teat b . e has been acting under false information with reference to the fill , and ijait : cuiaily as to its bpr . eScial worki :. t ; s in tbe out-townsbrps , sonic of the roof t nsptotaWe and ii-flutiitiai miilowntTs and iiianufaClUTtr > . i-f Newton Heath , among whom were twelve of the principal firms , signed a requisition to the authorities , of wLich the following is a copy : —
