HOUSE OF LORDS, JUNE 5. MESSAGE FROM THE COMMONS. • . Sir A. GRAWT, and other Members, brought up the Excise Li censes Bill. the Bishop of Winchester's Estate 13111, the Covent Garden Market Improvement Bill. and several other private Bills, all of which were subsequently read a first time. The Earl of ELDON presented a Petition from Cheltenham, against any tuttber concession to the Roman Catholics. The Earl of ELDON bilged to inquire of the Noble Marquis what course he intended to pursue with respect to the subject of discussion which stood for Monday next ? The Marquis df LA,NSDOWN said, that he should feel it his duty to state his reasons why the House should concur in the Re solution which bad been communicated to them by the other House of Parliament. If the House should agree with him, he did not intend to follow up the Resolution any further than to move that it be communicated to the Commons. Lord KING had a Petition to present from a body of Unita rians in favour of the Catholic Claims. Although he saw a Noble and Learned Earl opposite, he should not propose to receive this Petition with three cheers, but be trusted the Noble and Learned Earl, adverse as be was to the Unitarians, would not doubt their right to petition that House. He lamented that the Noble Earl did not occupy the place he had filled so long, and was no linger, adorned by utose flowing curls which had for so many years fallen i so gene fully from his shoulders; for under the present military government, lie was entitled to all honour, as he wee eminently qualified to give zest to the enjoyments of the mess, by those effu sjous of merriment which had somewhere hevn called venerable buffooneries. The Petition he had to present was from the Cid tari,ns of Ashton, in Staffordshire, and prayed fur equal civil privt. lege. to the professors of all religiens. The Earl of ELDON s.tid, that tin men was less likely than himself to object to a Petition merely because it proceeded from Unitailam. This would he peculiarly inconsistent in him, who had, the other day, presented a. Petition from persons of this class, the prayer of which was the reverse of that now in the hands of the Noble Lnrd. The Noble Lord might hear, perhaps. with satis• faction, what he had now to state, that he had disqualified himself from ever again filling that seat to which he had alluded, under any Government, whether civil or military. With respect to the cheers of which the Noble Lord had spoken, it would be well if the Noble Lord would inquire before be gave implicit credit to all that ap peared in the newspapers. An idea had gone abroad that he had interfered in the lormatiitif of the present Administration. This idea was erroneous. The Noble Lord had himself interfered fully as much as lie had. And he (Leval Eldon) would take this oppor tunity of declaring, that no part had ever been taken by him, either in the dissolutions of Ministers or the formation of new Adminis trations. He wished not to meddle in such met:ere—he was here for the purpose alone of doing his duty to his country—he was here alone to fulfil the solemn pledge by which he was bound to that country, and he would, therefore, repei with indignation and contempt those taunts which had been thrown out in language that had tallest from the Noble Lord opposite—(Repeated cries of hew from all sides of the House). Though his lite had been a long one, yet be thanked Goo that he had never disgraced the character which that life had supported. He had sot disgraced it himself, and he would never sit by and allow it to be disgraced by any other man. The Petition was then read, and ordered to lie upon the table. Lord ROLI.E presented a Petition Irons Ilfracombe, in the County of Devon, against any further concession to the Roman Catholics. - Lord HOLLAND presented Petitions in favour of Emancipso. don from Rochdale, Fulkstone, Nottingham, Dorchester, Chipping Norton, and several other places. The Duke of MONTROSE presented a Petition from the Ana elate Congregation of Burghers of Glasgow, against any farther Concession to the Roman Catholics. The Earl of ELDON preseuted a Petition from the Planters resident in the City of Edinburgh and its vicinity, praying for a Parliamentary Commission to inquire into the state of the Slaves I ha the West Indies, and for the protection of West India property. scorcu SETTLEMENT SILL The Earl of ROSEBERRY moved the second reading of this Bill. He described it as a measure of the utmost importance, ne cessary to check the stream of emigration which now set in so 'wanly as to threaten to reduce the labouring classes of Scotland ip the same level of misery as those of Ireland. Lord MELVILLE telt himself under the necessity of opposing the further progress of this Bill. It was the first attempt, so far as he was aware. to make a legal distinction between the natives of one part of the United Kingdom and another. He considered it I harsh to make one law of settlement for the natives of Scotland, and another for the natives of Ireland. This was at variance with • the principles of the Union. He bad a (either objection also, which was, that the measure was impracticable. Nobody knew better than the Noble Earl that the parochial registers of Scotland were very defective, and it would be a matter of extreme difficulty foe a Scotch pauper to prove the place of his nativity. He should, for these reasons, move as an amendment, that the Bill be read a se gued time that day tbrie months. The Earl of LIMERICK supported , the Amendment. Whet Would be said if it were now proposed, as it had once been pro peoad, to exclude Scetchnaen irons this part of the United King dom ? " For Heaven's sake, " it was once the fashion to ay," let us keep out the Scotch." That day was past, and it was a little surprising, in the present age of conciliation and liberality, to see an attempt made to go back at one step five or six hundred years. I The master manafacturers of Great Britain were not able to pat such wages to their workmen as would satisfy Englishmen or SeOtchmen, and they were compelled to invite over Irish labourers to enable them to rule their own refractory countrymen. ' The Earl of ROSEBERRY explained. There was nothing in the Bill offensive to the Irish. They and the English were put upon an equal footing. The Earl of H ADDINGTON supported the Bill, and con tended that there ought to be a legal provision for the Poor in Ire land, at least for such as were aged and infirm. He wished the House to go into a Committee upon the Bill. The F.arl of Ltuarecx explained. The Earl of ROSSLYN made a few observations in opposition to the Bill. Lord BF.LHAVEN wished the Bill to be committed, that they might see if it were possible to render it agreeable to all parties.— Some measure was evidently recessery. The Earl of DARNLEY opposed the Bill. Emigration to England was a means of relieving the wretchedness of the Irish population. The Earl of ROSEBERRY expressed his hope that the Noble Earl (Melville), would not resist the Bill in its present stage. Lord Viscount MELVILLE would not object to she further progress of the Bill, with an understanding that the natives of All the three United Kingdoms were to be put upon an equal footing. After a few words from the Earl of LIMBIUCC and the Earl of Ros RRRRRR tbe Bill was read a second time, and ordered to be committed on Wednesday nest.' On the motion of the Duke of Wm-mime, the Stamp Allow ances Bill was read a second time, and ordered to he committed to-morrow. The Earl of ELDON requested the Noble Earl (Malmesbury) to po.pohe the bringing up of the Report of the Lunatic Asylum Bill. as he bad some amendments to propose. The Earl of MALMESBURY would agree to this, front the high respect he entertained to the Noble and Learned Earl.—The Report was ordered to be received on Wednesday nest. On the motion of the Earl of Meratassomr, the /louse resolved itself into a Committee upon the County Lunatics Asylum Bill. The Earl of MALMESBURY proposed his amendments, one for the appointment of a Chaplain in each Asyium, and the other to render all County Asylums subject to the visitation of Commis sioners; to be appointed by the Secretary of State of the Home Departient. The House then resumed, and the Report was ordered to be received,on Wednesday next. The Earl of SHAFTESBURY moved a Standing Order, that no private Bill should be committed vine ten days after the second reading. The Bills before the House vier* taw aided in their respective stages. The Housethen adjourned at Harr-re.se Sce o'Ceoge. HOUSE OF COMMONS.

FRENCH PAPERS. PROM THE GAZETTE DR PRANCE, JUNE 4. VIENNA, May 25. Letters horn Transylvania say, that many Moldavian, Wallachian, and Turkish families are endeavOuring, on the approach of the Russians, to retire into the Austrian territory. Prince Ghika, who was supposed to have been taken'pristmer by the Russians, has arrived with a aumerons suite at Cronstadt, in Transylvania. His eldest son, who was at Constantinople, appears to have succeeded in escapi ng, for the purpose of joining his family. It was believed at Bucharest that Count Pahlen — , Civil Governor of the Principalities, was going to leave Jassy, and to €a the seat at his administration at Bu charest; end that the Emperor Nicholas would also come to that place. The sale of manufactured goods, which was not con siderable in those provinces, has increased a good deal sinct the entrance of the Russians, and gives employ mint to a good number of houses at Hermanstadt, Cronstadt, Chotym,, Bucharest, and Jassy. Corn is rising in Transylvania, and in the Bannat. The letters, bowever,.say thst this rise is the effects of speculation rather than of a real demand, though the stock in hand is, however, not great. An order is :":id to have been published at Bucharest, prohibiting all strangers from offering to make contracts for the RussiarlaftilY, which has disappointed many speculators. It was said at Bucharest, that a considerable corps of Russian infantry had marched towards Giurgevo, and it is affirmed, that in the night of the 11th a cannonade was heard in that direction. General Geismar, who disarmed the rebels at Sr. Petersburgh in 1825,• is ap pointed Military Governor at Bucharest. PARIS, Jona 5. In Germany, as well as France, doubts have been fired of the authenticity of the bulletin of the Russian army, which we had copied from an Austrian Gazette. One of our subscribers, who appears to be well informed, both with respect to things and persons, has addressed to us on this subject several observations, which appear to ns very just, and of which the following ate the most remarkable, to say nothing of the sally of so considerable a garrison, of which a great part consisted tf cavalry, and which does not ill resemhlo the regiment on horse back commanded by the Marquis de Mascarille on board the Maltese gallies. Mention is made of a Lieu tenant General Doctoroff, who was a very distinguished officer of the Russian army, but he died at least ten rears ago, not with the rank of Lieutenant General, but of General in Chief, which is often equivalent to that of Marshal of France. The same remark applies to General Ouvaroff, who' also died some years ago. We do not know any Lieut.- Omer al of the name of Yernodoff. He who commanded in Georgia was General in Chief, and besides, be is out IA employment. On the other hand, it must appear very surprising that the Turks should have collected such a considerable force on the Danube, when it is known that Vey have hardly been able to assemble something like an army in the environs of Adrtrnople. We are besides informed that in me course of this war we shall have to be upon our guard against apocryphal news and documents. We, who have so often denounced the bad faith and impudence of the journals, shall not be astonished at it. The accounts from the lonian Islands and the Merea announce Ye continuation of the blockade of the ports of the Mom. by the ves,els of the three Powers and by the Greek!. The news of the mutiny of the Albanians in Ibrahim's army is confirmed. They have seized forum Ccron, and were attacked there on the 26th of Auril by the Egyptians; but the latter were repulsed, atter a battle, which cost - the lives 01 several thousand men on both sides. It is also stated that Gen. Chinch continues closely to blockade Minn. lnnghi; but the Roman journals say that he has been attacked and defeated by a Turkish corps superior in Smothers. It was also reported that the Commaitder'ot 4 Russian man of w having received some insults nni the authorities of Smyrrra, for winch he could not ot)tam satisfaction, had bombarded that city, which had suffered severely. This report is also meotioned ID the German journals. . - I el ..lk.

Sir JOHN NEWPORT said; the epeech of the Hon. Gentleman reminded him of what occurred•once% the Irish House of Commons, and which he recollected . to have heard when a bop k Learned Member of the Irish Parliament described in glowing term's the prospe rity of I eland. 'Another Member, urleplying•ttelsis o.i.ech. observed, that from the statement of the'Learrind Member one would have thought that all their halt- Fence were converted lino guineas, in place of which lac c(aild not find either guineas or halfpence. The Hon. Gentleman said, that the 'country was advancing in ..rosperity, and at the same time admitted that the people calise over here in great numbers to 'look for employment. If they had employment at home, would they come over here? if the Hon. Gentleman 'read the Repert of the Commissioners, he would have seen that ihe draining orbogs was not so. hopeless or unprofitable is he represented it, or the difficulties so insuperable. rbe gteat difficulty arose from the compliettion of tithes. The advantage of draining bogs Was:fully ex emplified in this country. harms to it theroteed that large tract of land, the Bedford Level, and - seerral others. lu 1819, a Drainage Bill for Ireland - was commended, and one actually brought in ItSlBs:3 ~ h ongh afterwards abandoned. 'The' thing, thirefnie; could not be so hopeless as it was represented. 'Aare; land had lost her own Legislature, it'was the detrif the English Government • to pay some attentinntith the interests of that country: The commerce of Ireland bid certainly improved since 1800, and that improvement was owing entirely to the Bill which he himself brought in for opening the intercourse between both - countries according to the terms of the Union. But Pram •1806 to 1820, no measure was adopted to follow this up. ' A great deal might be done bra little money. They had some claim on this country, which drew from Ireland very considerable sums. He was confident Ireland had improved greatly for the last twenty years, but improve ment might be carried much farther. Great pod might be done by the cultivation of four millions of acres of land, lying in the very centre of the country. ln'lBl9 the subject was brought before the House,'and nnts one step had been taken since. His sincere desire at all times was to improve the country. The House might be assured that some effort -must be made to place it in l a different situation, or otherwise the etils would soon spread rapidly to England. ; • • • . Mr. L. FOSTER said he had presented a Petition similar to this from the Gentlemen of ' the tounty of Mayo. He should take the present epportuhity of offering a few observations on the subject, and this would relieve him from the necessity of saying any thing upon the Petition which be had presented. He fully concurred in what had been • said by his'Hen. Friend the Member for Derry (Mr. Dawson) that •no good could result fro'm an extended application of pub lic money. .It could not he denied at the same time, that if individuals were encouraged, by assistance frens Government, to apply their 'own capital, a great deal might be done in furthering the object of the Petitioners. The earliest object of attention should be to remnve the inconveniences and impediments of a let al dature.— What the Petitioners•desited in the first place was, that roads should be opened so as to connect the Fisheries of the West and South with the interior parts of the coun try. In reclaiming waste lands s- , inething had been already done, and he was assures that many barren mountainous districts sere brought into a state nicul. citation. The second great object of ttle Petitira ere was the draining of bogs. To effect this,•he contend: tr that no expenditure of public money was necessary, neither did the Commissioners countenance' any such The impediments in.the way of draining bogs weienot of a financial nature, but there were obstacles of a' legal nature, which he feared were insuperable. 'There Were ten engineers employed by the Commissioners, and ill of them, except one, agreed in this, that whatever Might be the sum expended in drtihing. whether 11. or 20( an acre, a return of from ten to' fifteen per cent. might be expected. The tact stated by his Hon Riend (Mr. Dawson), that bogs were *not actually reclaimed, was not a proof that they might not be reclaimed with a profitable return to the undertaker. The first prat obstacle was, that the boundaries of these bogs were not yet ascertained. There might be a remedy for this by application to the Court of Chancery, but that was so expensive a process, that few, perhaps, would be will ing to have recourse to it. Perhaps, however, Upon inquiry, means might be devised for removing this ob stacle. The second difficulty arose from the tenants residing upon the terra firma adjoining those bogs. By the conditions of their lease they had the privilege of letting in their cattle during the summer to feed 'upon the bogs. It was a right of little value certainly, suf ficient, however, to influence the tenant, and to make him reluctant to part with it. The shortness of his tenure prevented the tenant from making any 'attempt in the way of draining, and the landlordavas presented by the claim his tenants had of turning in their cattle. These were obstacles, however, which might be se -moved, and if once got rid of, much might be' done without arty great outlay of capital. Each proprietor might improve his own part, if some machinery could be contrived to get rid of the existing difficultiers.. • Mr.V. FITZGERALD said he was most antious-that the petitioners should succeed in the objects they *pro posed. The first thing to be done was•to get rid of the legal difficultiei.• ""'"g! • Colonel TRENCH said, the clear and able itatement of his Hon. and Learned Friend (Me. L. Fester) ren dered it quite unnecessary for. him to go into this im. portant subject. If the people of Ireland could get sufficient employment, they would then "see thechuntry tranquilized and happy. He was somevihrit surprised • at the speech of his Hon. Friend, the Member fbr Derry (Mr. Dawson). Whatever improvement might have taken place in the commerce of Ireland, it could not be denied that great distress prevailed there. He could point out in some parts such miserable wretched beings as would disgrace even the desarts of Africa, and this not in barren poor districts, but in the neighbourhood of towns and cities. English landiords were the pride and glory of England. Many of them were proprietors also in Ireland, and treated their tenants there in the best manner: He regretted to say, however, that there were others who paid no attention at all to them. •For this they were much more to be blamed than Irish hind• lords, who having been long familiar with such scenes of misery, could not be so sensibly struck by them. The general' principles of political economy laid doom brlt . his Hon. Friend (Mr. Dawson) might be correct ic‘thir • STATE OF IRELAND. Mr. BROWNLOW said, he had a Petition to present which made him greatly regret that the House was so thin, and particularly that no Minister was in the House at half-past five o'clock, though he had given notice of the presentation of the Petition, which greatly con cerned the people of Ireland. The Petition WAi drawn up by a number of the most respectable men in Ireland, who were impressed strith'n deep sense of the sufferings of their country. The Petitioners had carefully ab stained from any mention of the Catholic Question, or 'Church property. The Petition stated, that there was evidence before the House that one fourth of the houses of Dublin were in a state of insolvency ; and though food was never cheaper, the Mendieant Asylums of Dublin were never so crowded, owing to the want of 'employment, and Dublin was now exhibiting the strongest symptoms of rapid decay. All over the count: ysuch a state of suffering prevailed as was not to be found in any other country in Europe or in the 'world. The facts of this statement were proved before various Committees of that House—before whom it was proved that not one•third of the people of Ireland were permanently employed. These facts were now becom ing known to the English and Scotch manufacturers and agriculturists, from the influx of labouring and pauper emigrants from Ireland. The Petition stated a number of remedies for these evils. The Petition complained of absentees. Non-residence be considered the prime curse of Ireland, •and not only a mistortune to the country, but a sin in those by whom it was practised. The Peti tion prayed for protection of the fisheries, by the erec tion of piers and other means. They stated also, that there were four millions rtf acres of bogs in Ireland, which were capable of improvement. The Petition would have prayed for a Bill for the relief of the butter trade, by the repeal of the odious laws by which it was: at present oppressed, but for a promise that had been made by the President of the Board of Trade, and which be hoped would still be carried into effect, of bringing in a Bill for that purpose. He should this night move for leave to bring in a Drainage Bill for Ireland, which he hoped might have the effect of faci litating the improvement of bogs, and by that means produce some employment of the people. Mr. GRATTAN said, the state of Ireland was so frightful, that it must be attended to. Harmony and peace were necessary to induce landlords to reside, but if Ministers were determined that Ireland should not have peace, they should endeavour to provide employ ment for the people. The Csmmittee on the State of Ireland, in 1825, reported that three millions of people wet e without employment, and it had been proved that in one year 65,000 persons had perished of famine and the fever it produced. He had himself endeavoured to have a power given to the parishes in Ireland to relieve their poor when suffering under famine and fever, but instead of receiving support he was loaded with abuse. One means of employment he thought might be found in resorting to the appointment of Commissioners, as had been done in Scotland, where, by a grant of 20,0001, a ye4r, a thousand miles of road had been made, and fifteen hundred bridges built, and by that means much waste land had been brought into cultiv :titan. He would also recommend to the attention of Government the plan lately adopted in Holland for providing for the poor in Colonies. • Mr. DAWSON said, 'there was . great exaggeration in the statement of distress in Ireland. He thought there wasno country in Europe making greater progress in the acquisition of wealth than Ireland. Its trade was increasing, and its agriculture was increasing in a sur prising degree. The Petition prayed for a general En closure Bill, and a general Draining Bill.; He would at once tell them that both were impossible. The bogs were private property,and Parliament could not interfere with them. Numbers of individuals in Ireland had at tempted making good land of bogs, of whom he was one, and were obliged to give it up, the land not being worth the expense. The imports of Ireland had increased a million. from 1800 to 1829. The exports of Ireland i n 1500 were but 3,509,0001. in 1820 the exporis were increased to 10,307,0001. This increase showed a rapid state of improvement. It was said England and Scot land suffered from the influx of Irish labourers, but the persons who employed them here had no reason to com plain, as they obtained labour cheaper than they other wise could have done. He found by a return..from L i verpool, that during the last three years, 25,000 Irish came annually to England by.. that port; and. 30,000 returned annually ; andbe had no doubt the same was the ca s e at ti'alasgow and Bristol,, from which he was certain that the number of Irish. labourers. in England was -decreasing : and they should not, be considered i.ither as beggars or intruders. • He knewby experience, ith het ith her thi sabe r r to,xAe S. ‘ees • ritnen, sted in le pro,. rat td a Pitt Ind dig t death 0 tears; could spared; vris td Writer irdship pc per. by the edm., to past [lowing Dormer.
