PARLIAM.ENTARr PROCEEDINGS. MOUSE OF COMMONS, FEBRUARY 6. STANDING ORDESS. Mr. LEFETRE moved the Order of the Day for the renewal of the adjourned Debate of Wednef day laft, upon the queftion, "That it is an high infringement of the liberties and privileges of the Commons of the United Kingdom of Great Bri tain and Ireland, for any Lord of Parliament, or Lord-Lieutenant or Governor of any County, to interfere or concern himfelf in- the ele&ion of any Member to Terve in Parliament." He ob ferved, that, in looking back to the Journals of the Houfe, it appeared that this Standing Order as applicable to the Parliament of Great - Britain, had been in force for upwards of too years ; he therefore trufted that the Houfe would not agree to any alteration with regard to its application to the Parliament of the United Kingdom. He concluded by moving the Refolution. Sir CHARLES MorcaH raid, he entertained no doubt as to the object of the Order, but he thought it would be better to omit any reference whatever to Ireland, till after the Committee appointed to confider what Orders and Regulations were ne ceffary to be made, in confequence of the Union, fhould have made their Report. With this view he fhould propofe an amendment, the terms of which, he hoped, would prove fatisfa&ory to the Houfe t the amendment was, "That it is an high infringement of the liberties and privileges of the, Commons of the United Kingdom of Great Bri tain and Ireland, for any Lord of Parliament, or Lord-Lieutenant of any County. in that part of the United Kingdom called Great Britain, to , avail himfelf of any authority derived from the Crown, to influence the elation of any Member to ferve in Parliament." Mr. Jonurron vprofeffed he entertained great doubts bow far it would be proper to alter a Re- Solution that bad been too years on the Journals. He had no difficulty in faying, if any inconve nience arofe, in eonfequence of the Order, to Members who were Lord-Lieutenants, it would be better they fhould refign the fititations they had derived from the Executive Government, rather than that precaution our anceftors had thought neceffary to fecure the freedom of eleaiort e mould be infringed. • Mr. Yours raid, he thought the alterattmi commended on the former day, when this fubjek; was brought forward, went to defeat the fpirit of the order; but be was now inclined to think, that the amendment propofed by the Hon. Baronet, fo far from altering the Refolution, was in con firmation of the opinion given on that day from the Clink. The obvious meaning of the order was, that no Lord-Lieuttnant fhould, by virtue of his authority, base any influence in controuling the eletStion of Members to ferve in this Houfe. By the manner in which the amendment was worded, any Gentlemikwho was a Commoner, and happened to be a Lord-Lieutenant of a County, might aft in his own elation. It would be extremely hard if a perfon, beCaufe he was a Lord-Lieutenant, fheuld be obliged to abandon the honour of reprefenting his County in Parlia ment. He was glad an amendment had been brought forward, which fo clearly explained the • real objea of the ceder, and he fhould certainly fupeort it. . ,„ , Mr. Bascos Erottbt up the Report of the Committee appoint ed to inquire what additional Orders and Regulations were neceffarp in confe (pence of the Union between Great-Britain and Ireland : it appeared the following Refolutions bad been agreed to : Refolved, That it is the opinion of this Com mittee, that all perfons who 641 queftion any re turn of Members to ferve in Parliament for that part of the United Kingdom called Ireland, that have been or may be made to writs already iffued, do queltical the fame within all days after it Mall have been returned into the Crown Office of' that part of the United Kingdom called England. • Refolved, That it is the opinion of this Com mittee, that all perfons who (hall queftion any re torn of Members to ferve in Parliament for that pars of the United Kingdom called Ireland, that !hall hereafter be made to writs not already ifued, do queftion the fame within ;4 days after it (hall have been returned Into the Crown Office of that Part of the United Kingdom tailed England ; or by lodging a petition in the Office of the Clerk of the Crown in Ireland within la days after the (aid return !hall have been brought into flack office. Refolved, That it is the opinion of this Corn• mince, chat when any loch Petition (hall be fo lodged within the time before limited, the raid Clerk mall make a Car to be ptekrved in the Enid Office, and immediately tranfmit the original Petition to the Speaker of the Houfe of Commons, to be laid before the Houk ; and in cafe no fueh Petition fhall be lodged within the tune before limited, the Paid Clerk of the Crown tranfmit a certificate figned by himfelf or his deputy, fpecifying when the return was made, and that no fuch Petition had been lodged pre ♦ioos to the certificate. __ _ _ . _ . Mr. &Assn, laid, the Refolutions 'glad gone into snug detul that might have been apcetcd, he ....a • ; • - therefore rather wished they Ilionld be fubmitted to the examination of the Houfe.—He moved, that the Paid Refolutionc Ihould be further confidered on Monday next, and in the mean time printed.

As it is manifefi that, through the great expellee of the war, and its melancholy conti nuance, the Income Tax is likely to become a perpetuity, it has been fuggelled as an expedient for railing a large fum, that fuch perfons as may be defirous of buying up their Income Tax !hall be allowed to do fo at (even or eight years purchafe, like a life annuity; by which means a calculation has been made that about twenty millions would be railed. Yefterday evening the report of Mr. Prres relignation was re►ived, and the fame reafon was affigned as on the former occafion; namely, a difference in the Cabinet on the queftion of the emancipation of the Cathqjics. It was added aro that Mr. DUNDA3 had refignecl ! The latter circumftanoe was fufficient to difcredit the (late ment entirely ; it was, however, circulated with great induftry, and many were inclined to give it Credit. • There feems to be little queftion about a diffe rence in fentiment on the above queftion esifting among the Members of Adminiftration, but whe ther of an irreconcilable nature time muft thew. Lord CAST LIISAG H has, it is &id,. given notice' to his friends in Ireland, and in this Country, that it is his intention to move very fhortly in the Houfe of Conimons foi the furpenfion of the Tells and Difqualifications, which Rill affelt the Civil State of the Roman Catholics in Ireland. It is faid, that the Noble Lord finds himfelf pledged to bring forward this meafure, as it was by this promife and engagement he obtained the concur rence of the Catholic interefhe the Union. Upon the other band, we hear it is infilled upon by a majority of his Majetly's Minifters, that the meafure is highly dangerous and premature in the prefent Elate of things. and before the favoura ble effeas of the Union Mall hale been fufficiendy experienced in alum circumflances, which are ab folutely neceffary to precede and to prepare for this alteration. The Earl of CLAIR, the Chancellor of Ireland, is at the head of the party which is for delaying the com2lete emancipation of the Catholics , bur doubts fill more ferions and enuAlls difficult of folution bate occurrcd in the gigheft place, whether the r • coact Ton in Tuition be not altogether at variance and irrecoacileable with that, article of the Corona,' tion Oath, by rhich his MAJESTY is bound to de fend and maintain the Protefiant Religion. It were premature to enter into the dircuffion of a queilion which involves confiderations of an ab. Ilraaed and peculiar nature, farther than to (late our individual expedation that this objettion will not prove unfurmountable.• The policy of imme diate emancipation from the TeR Acts is more dif ficult to be reconciled with the faith of this coun try, if it has been pledged by the Marquis Coati- WALLIS and Lord CASTLEREAGH. His MAJESTY'S Council mutt be deeply embar. railed by the dilemma in which they are placed. between acceding to a meafure which they may confider dangerous, and violating a promifc fo suddenly given by a competent Authority, that it mull he regarded as National in the fulleft and a MOK comprchenfive fenfe. But Lord, CASTLE- R EAG H cannot certainly be cenfured for taking the only means in his power to redeem his pledge 1 with the Irifh Catholics, and to obtain for them the condition he promifed as the Miniller for Ire land. Mr. Purr, it is believed, will fecond and fupport his Motion. • The fono; . ving is the Clank alluded to : it vns introduced into the Coronation Oath after the abdication of James the Szeatur, and touland for the Srft time to King WILLIAM— " Will you to the atmoft of your power maintain the Laws of GOD, the true profeffion of the Gapel, and the Proteßant re formed Religion as by Law efladdithed r—Anfwer : " I will."

His brother reco vered him, however, by pouring down his throat, in fpoonfuls, fome f the fame liquor that reco vered the negroes."
