Thursday's accounts from Dublin give very bad reports as to
the pro- gress of distress and crime throughout the country. The Enniscorthy Board of Guardians, having disregarded the instruc- tions of the Poor-law Commissioners, is to be forthwith dissolved.
On Wednesday, a deputation from the General Assembly of the Presby- terian Church presented an address of congratulation to the Earl of Claren- don. Both the address and answer were similar in spirit to those recorded last week in the case of the Remonstrant Synod of Ulster. Lord Clarendon, however, made some allusion to the tenant-right of Ulster. The subject, he said, was one of great importance and difficulty, and was now engaging the anxious consideration of Government • who, in any measure which they may think it their duty to submit to Parliament, will endeavour "strictly to guard the sacred rights of property, to promote the performance of its
corresponding duties, and to encourage, by adequate security, the outlay' • of capital and the employment of labour."
