THE DETAILS OF THE NEWS BROVGHT BY THE HIBERNIA, ‘The steamship Hibernia, Captain Stone, arrived at Boston at 40’clock yesterday morning, and her mails reached this city at 45 o’elock yesterday af- ternoon, in a little more than nine hours from Boston. Our Irish Correspondence, Duwi, April 27, 1849, Progress of the Cholera—The Writs of Error—Statis The Crops, &c., §e. No news ef much importance has transpiret since amy last letter, with the exeeption of the heart-rending accounts which have, every day for lust week, been re- ceived of the ravages whieh destitution and the plague are making amongst the people of Ireland, It is very unfortunate that the latter should have proved violent this year, as the constitutions of th habitants, perticularly in the South and West, have been so debilitated from fatigue and exhaustion, brought on by famine and its concomitant evils. The accounts, as L said before, daily received, are truly distressing, parti- cularly from Westport and Ballanrobe; for in those places the cholera is raging with terride violence, some of the inhabitants daily fulling victims to that disease; whilst in other towns parties are daily committed to prison for thefés, which were made for the express pur- pore of the depredators being transported, Instances haye oceurred at the quarter-scssions, held within the last few days, of some of the prisoners, when acquitted, preying of the bench to transport them, that being their only hope of eseaping hunger and destitution Mr. Swistleton, the able poor law commissioner, has resigned his charge, and proceeded to England. His able testimony on the part of Ireland, in examination before the House of Commons, will be read st, and his resignation conveys to the contemplative mind the truth that the syste which the present government is pursuing towards this un- heppy country, is radically bad, when eyen their own officers resign their trusts in disgust, Lord John, Rusiell, on lat n.attempted to get the opinion of the Irish members on what is best to be done, but signally failed; and I understand now that, if he fails in his Rate in’ Aid scheme, he will tainly try his hand at the Income Tax, ‘Socicti being formed in Armagh and Derry, for tl pose of offering a threefold oppositio: mer, and the members of these socivties are determined to use all legitimate means to prevent its execution, Mr. Monaghan, t Attoru has left for London, to «ist, with his profound lo + in the rovedings. yet, come removal of the prisoners, who still remain in mond Bridewell, ‘Two nauies are now mentioned nm the Roman € Chureh n lately appoi par-Ua- hop of New York; however, -—Dr. Kieran pital, and Dr Hu; il packets from “ngland will be diseont » Via Liverpool, presont one mail is sent via Liverpool, and another, via Holyhead.

He was told, about £130 a year, including taxes, Auother—in 1844, a smail estate in Westport was sold for £7,000, A year elapsed, and the property was again sold for £6,000; a short time sub- nequently elapsed, and it was sold for £5,100; and, Inst December. the same estate was sold for £3,500, exactly ‘one-half of the amount it sold for four years before, A nobleman in Cork has lately offered 600 acres of good lond to any party who will engage to pny the poor rater, From an account Intely published, it appears that the number of military employed to collect poor rates, from Ist Octobor, 1848, to lst February, 1849, amounted to 11 field officers, 46 captains, 118 eubalterns, 216 ser- geants, 42 drummers. and 4.510 rank and file, exclusive of 69 officers and 2,538 constables. ‘The accounts lately received from the West relative being agreoable. It appears ohjcet of the farmers to get the crops out of their hands with the least possib-e risk and expense, with the ulterior design of emigrating im- mediately after the harvest. It is stated that where grain crops were sowed last year, the same grain has been again planted, or rather turned into the ground without ploughing, barre or such usual prepara- tion; but that the grain has been pitched in, and the earth turned loosely over.

I say the first regular Arsembly, because it ought to be recollected that the Assembly whore proceedings haye been the subject of report and comment through. wut tho world for the lust twelve months. has not been @ regular Assembly under any existing constitution,but a body collected and conyoked without any definite in- structions or regular commission, having for its chject merely the formation of a constitution. It Is true,that while engaged in this work, it has necessarily also dis- eharged the functions of a regular Legislative Assem- bly, This it las done by the very necessity of the ease, For nearly six months it has held an exceptional position, Invested by its very nature with unlimited powers, it has stood beside the ¢ hief of the State--also nominated by univeral suffrage, and invested by the constitution with powers limited and defined, bat which are {ncompatible with the omnipotence of the Constituent Assembly it A collision between these two high authorities has been continually apprehended. ‘The mederation of beth, and the influence of public opinion acting upon them, and the resolution of the mitddle classes, the representatives of which eonstitute the majority of the Assembly, to maintain order at any price, have averted such a collision, We ate now, however, appronehing the limits of this anomalous con- ition of the State, The commission of the Consti- tuent Assembly will expire on the day of the convoca- sion of that which i« now about to be elected, and the sepublie will then have its free play, under the condi- tions prevoribed by the constitution which has been proclaimed. You are, of course, aware that the constitution has not been in accordinee with the sentiments of the ul- ara-democratic rection of the wbly, and of thoze partics out of it, which that scetion represents, The rcelalists, the communists, and the red republienns are Furious agahist the constitution, st the Assembly whieh fx about to be clected, and even.against the con- ptituent Assembly itself; and nothing prevents these parties from attempting another revolution, exeept the overwhelming force of the majority against them, and the formidable array of military foree collected in and avound the capital. In order to afford free play to the elective principle, it has been dceided by the Assembly, with the assent of the government, that some of the restrictions linposed on the licence of the p shall be relaxed, iu the inter- vat from the present tiae to the eonelusion of the elee- tions. Thus the deposit of money, called caution money, required to be made by the proprietors ot jour- nals before their publication, will not be required during this interval, We may, therefore, expect to be jmundated with a shower of ephomeral papers, of every deseription, such as appeared after the revolution of Febroary.

The clubs will, therefore, speedily change their names, and start into activity under the title of electoral meetings The police, however, have the right to enter these meet- ings, to witness their proceedings. and, in case it should appear that their object is different from the legitimate one, of the elections, the authorities have the right of suppression, ‘This right has been, in fact, already exer- cised.

Nothing could exeeed the sensitive alarm with which every member, connected with that government, started turward to disavow any participation in such'a proposition, ‘The suspicion naturally fell on M. Ledru Rollin, whose pro- jeets of paper money and other systems of hollow ere dit, heve from time to time made so much noise.

M. Dela- marre his just published a letter, in which he explains what the project really was which he proposed, and which had been misrepresented as a system of national bankrupte: ‘this a ion is so far interesting, as shewing how decidedly adverse public opinion is, and has been, to any uneasiness which could tend to a breach of pub faith. Any individual on whom the suspicion of pro- posing or mmending such a measure should fall would tterly ruined in public estimation. You will have perceived by the reports which have appeared in the journels, that the cholera has not been on tl crease; but you must remember that these reports refer only to tlic eases which have occurred in the public hospitals, We have no authentic means of knowing the extent to which the epidemic has vailed gencrally throughout the country.

In spite of all this. however, he h maintained, and will maintain his influence. M. Leon Faucher is in age under 40, Thave more than once mentioned to you the dissen- sion which has prevailed between the President of the republic and some of his cousins, more especially Pierre and Lucien Bonaparte. the brothers of the Prince of Canine, who has lately figured so conspicuously at Rome, and the sons of Lucien, late Prince of Canino, whe played £0 prominent a part on the memorable day on whieh Napoleon introduced his force into the Chamber of Representatives. These two young men, but more especially Lucien, have heretofore adopted the side of the ultra-demecrats, and Lucien has been regarded as a decided partisan of Rouge. A change, however, hus just taken place in all this, and both of these brothers have publicly an- nounced that they support fi and sincerely the mo- derate party, with which the Prince has identified him- self. You will see in the journals the letter. Napo- lecn Bonuparte, the on of Jerome, has, as I have al- ready informed you, gone to Madrid as’ ambassador; and a report having been eireulated that hu made some compromising «peceh at Bordeaux, the President ad- dressed a letter to him, giving him a lecture therefor; which letter, though intended te be private, has found its way into the journals, where you will have geen it. Since writing the preceding portion of this lettor, a part of what 1 intimated hus actually taken place, there having been some serious disturbanees at eome (t the electoral meetings.

Although this has only just commenced, we have already had some serious distur- bances, and many more, and more serious disturbances suny be ealeulated upon before the eleetion fever sub- rides. M, de Lamartine having been applied to by an cleetoral committee to pre t himself as a candidate at the election, has replied as follow: “[ do not present myself. 1 believe that politieut men, who are slighted, and who support the woight of a recent responsibility in one of the crises of their country, should accept, without calling for, the jadg+ nent, just or unjust, of their fellow citizens.

But since they had again chosen to entertain the public with the affair, he calls to their minds the motive expressed in his answer, and of which they do not mention one word, but which was given in the following terms:—‘It is ovident that M.

We have alrendy shown that those who have intro- duced this bill for indemnifying the Fast Canadians for the losses which they suffered in the rebellion have not acted without a preeedent. A measure precisely simi- lar to this was carried under Lord Metealfe’s ae ment, for indemnifying those who had suffered thesame losses in Canada West. 80 fur the proposal 1s one of apparent fairness and justice. But there is a stri- Pe distinction between the two cases:—The majority of the inhabitants in Canada West were loyal; thema- jority of those in Canada East were disloyal, The in- dcinnity im the former case was awarded to those who had fought on the side of the Government; the indem- nity in the latter will be granted to those who fought against It. ‘This is not easily to be avoided; for, though on will be those tuken in arms and convicted of ith rpcelajly excluded from the benefits of tho act, still its provisions must. perforce, include many whose heartiest rympathics, and (in some cases) open assistance, were ave n tothe avowed onemies ‘tthe British Crown, Nor is this the sorcet point of the ease, The act docs not mercly contemplate paying loyal money to unconvicted rebels, but it further contenplates paying English money to # Fieneh faction, “« his is, after all, the rankling and gallii A compromire might have been effected betwee two extreme Englich partics; but what compromise can be eftveted between two hostile and alien races, cooped up in the angry arena of one legislature? ‘The anti- ypathies of race long survive the antipathios of party, jad: It was hardly to be expected that even a wise an cious measure, like the union of the two Canadas,would, bring forth its expected fruits at once.

Mr, Mac- kay (in The Western World) states, that both imports anid exports have increased 25 per cent in the three years since it came into operation. stood at 26 jmillions sterling for 154%, and 32 millions for 1848, rhowing an ineT¢ase of two millions a year ; th cfease for ihe threo preceding years having hoon ry materially less. But intercsts formerly protected have suffercd, particularly in Pennsylvania, tn whieh the supporters of the rival systems are very nearly equal ; and this State declared for General’ Taylor. Losses, really attributable to the failure of the cotton crop or the state of Europe, were at once set down to the credit of the new policy, as in this country ; a the result is that the candidate of the whigs, or prc teetionist party. has 1 ; President, and the same party bas temporarily acquived a small majority in the House of Representatives. But G 1 Taylor owes his success principally to his imflitary renown and his personal popularity ; the Sonate is still demo- cratic, or liberal, by a cor so that lative change in tion ix prac- ble for the present; and if the manufacturing States chould succeed in their design of imposing dif- ferential dutics for their own beuotit, to the manifest injury of the cotton and corn growing States, thers can be litte doubt that a separation must speedily ens ue, We are, therefore, under no apprehension that the United States will practically retrograde; the language of the new President has been extremoly guarded; and it appears from tho ciiicial document, entitled, “Reply of the Luited States government respecting the Pro- osed Relaxation of the British Navigation Laws,” that it entirely depends upon the British Parliament to pro- cure for British ships the privilege of trading “from Ato any po ved, pr spect to charges, treated like is clear from the Act of Congr 8 approved on the 2th May, 1828, und from the interpretation put upon it by the A athori ry evi- eriean law courts and administrative The Act provides that. upon satisf he Presid that no of the said nation upe f the Unit of any foreign are imposed in the port wholly bolonging to citizens upon goods buported in them his preelw deel pended, ko far as ads ation, and (he pes sury circular, ¢ down. that the ship of a ships from th and without) an. nf 1847, y nation which exempts duties in question, shall Presidential proclama- » portsof the United nan, (February 9, 1849.) refor v vw, writ fait and equ her vessel= ane th direct forcign trade he same footing with vex- Cnited State: ‘be coasting trade is, of “Indeed, the liberal principles ot re- e and navigation, sanctioned by i) had been practically adopted ‘previous to its in treatics which hind been concluded by the pd ine States with Denmark, Sw the Hanseatic ro- public, and Pruysia, xud have since been carried effeet in treaties concluded with Austria, R other powers@all of whieh are + till in fore.” No one seriously supposes that the ment of the United States can or will pat an er these treaties, or pass a new law to exelude ¢ in from the provisions of the Act of May, 1828.

We suspect that the same train of inquiry would show why British tonnago has not in- ercased in rome of the Baltie ports, the fact being that the country which exports the bulkiest commodities in ony given trade. always employs the greatest nym- Ler of ships.
