Prayers were read at half after three o'clock, by the Bishop of Exarrn • and afterwards Lord litms.tat was introduced as . Baron BA imam, of Barham Court, in the County of Sussex, being supported by Lords Gammen and CALTNORPE, and cots-1 ducted by Garter King at Arms, who was attended by the Yeo.l man Usher of the Black Rod. When the patent had been read, the usual oaths were administered to his Lordship, who these,' upon took his seat.—Adjoura,..l during pleasure, and at fire o clock their Lordships resuintd. Mr. Bitocnew and others hrotrAt up the Scotland ConArma dons Bill, the Beer Duties Bill,and the Brimstone Drawbacks Bill, which were afterward; reed a first time. _ _ Thu Duke of MUNSTER presented a Petition from the Hibernian Philanthropic Society, who prayed that their Lord ships would take cttsnizance, in any measure they might un. dertake.with regard to the present state of Ireland, of Mr. Oven's plan for ameliorating the condition of the poor. The Noble Duke added, that from everything lie Ind heard upon the sub ject, and •from what he individually knew in re: ttion to Mr. Owen's plan, he entertained no unfavourable, but rather a high opinion of it. He took this opportunity to present the Petition, which had been confided to his care, as he conceived it to be connected with the great question that was about to be discuised by their Lordships. The Earl of CLARE expressed his conviction that the Peti: tion just presented by his Noble Friend deserved the most se rious consideration of the House. Of this, indeed, he was confi dent, that the extent of the wretchedness of Ireland was not even known in this country. Ile should, - therefore, call ..pon their Lordships to interpose a helping hand, while conjuring them never to abandon the inquiry on account of the difficulties that were presented on every side. The Marquis of LANSDOWN presented a Petition front the Dealers of London, who prayed that the Scotland Linen Manufacture Bill might not be allowed to pass. The Earl of LIVERPOOL was surprised at the prayer of the Petitioners, 3s the present Bill contemplated the taking oti all restrictions on the Linen Trade.—The Petition was received, and laid upon the table of the House. IRELAND. The Marquis of LANSDOWN now moved the Order of the Day upon which their Lordships had been summoned, tor taking into consideration the actual state of Ireland ; and, the Order being read,. The Duke of 'DEVONSHIRE rose.—lt never would have occurred to him, his Grace said, to bring. forward a motion at all likely to occupy their Lord ships' time, at so advanced a period of the Session as this, had he not feared, from the delay of investiga tion in another place, that this Session would not terminate with „satisfaction to the country if Parlia ment should neglect all inquiry as to the piesent si tuation and future prospects of Ireland. Under these circumstances he, even now, felt the disadvantages that were opposed to his course; but relying on the support of Noble Lords around him, and seeing that the continuance of a rigorous system in relation to Ireland had rather worse than no effect, he was anxious that Parliament should resort to other means —means and measures which would cease to retard all improvements, while they removed the evils that tarnished the character of a country rich in her na tural advantages. There was something, an inde finable something, with regard to Ireland, that indi cated a system of bar! Government there ; for if the people of Ireland were satisfied in reason, if they were at'all comfortable in circumstances, it was not usual in the nature of things to suppose that a population so satisfied in themselves, would wish to risk the comfort and property of their families in perils and tumults. From the period of the Union, however, to‘the present day, what had Ireland exhibited to us? Nothing more instructive than a successive scene of petty insurrections. All parties were agreed in one thing ; it was admitted on all sides, that the state of Ireland was alarming, and the difficulty great in re medying her situation ; and it certainly was to the disgrace of Parliament that conciliatory measures had not been persevered in. It was impossible for their Lordships not to be aware that religious differences were one paramount cause. of dissension in Ireland ; but while all conciliation and concession was refused lie entertained no hope. Let their Lordships once abandon the harsh system of exclusion, and trust the people with the Constitution, and all would be right. It was certainly wrong for their Lordships to assume that the absence of Catholic concession was the only cause of discontent and displeasure to a very large .majority of the people 4 Ireland ; there were con , comitant causes of dislike; but, unless the predomi nant cause of complaint were removed, its operation, felt though unseen, would prevent all benefits that might hereafter be derived from the adoption of con ciliatory measures in other forms. The whole con duct of Government in regard to Ireland, its policy and its practice, demanded a thorough examination. With reference to the administration of justice in Ireland, there remained no hope except in the im partiality and purity of its administration. Nothing could be conceived more fatal to a country than an undecided and trimming system ; and yet this system had uniformly been pursued with regard to Ireland. The object of this system was palpable—it was in tended to give triumph to neither party; and, upon this system, the discontent of both parties would be perpetuated, for no other earthly purpose than to in trust the Government of Ireland to almost wholly a' small majority, who consisted of persons known s under the designation of Orangemen—persons who considered the people as their enemies, and who, therefore, were themselves obnoxious to the country ac large. The state of affairs was alarming; their Lordships must perceive, that there was one law for Protestants and another law for Catholics ; so that, in effect, the difficulty was not subdued by keeping both parties under. Either, then, their Lordships must concede to the people of Ireland, or,' as one alternative, they must give to the individuals who were arrayed as Orangemen a triumph, which would be no other than ruin - to Ireland. With respect to another cause of complaint—the tithe system—he i recollected the precise pledge given. by the Noble Earl at the bead of his Majesty's Governuient, and be wished to..ask, was not this a measure most gall iug, most oppressive, to the people of Ireland ? But, as sow principie of commutation was still befine the other House, ho would not colarge on this tdpic. i sy affecting ithiftp criticbl a' state of' affairs al then e , -,- .... _ • is 'I C :P: ievolred the fate of Ireland, be would urge, in the first place, the' necessity of further concessions to the CatholiOs of that country; then some arrangement With regarct,to tithes; next;an abridgement of the party who had too long ruled the people of.lrelandt and, Islay, a vigorous, but an impartial administra tion 'OF jttstice in that country. If any such measures were in the conteniplation of his Majesty's Ministers, he hoped that conclusiveness, not trimming, was the object. Much, after all, must depend on the con duct ofhis Majesty's Government with regard to Ire land; and, therefore, itbecame a matter ot• surprise, and to • himself the sabject of disappointment, that the views of the present Lord Lieutenant, who could not possibly have been an indifferent spec►ator ef events, were not stated on this occasion. If that Noble Lord entertained the same views he formerly had expressed in this Ilcuse, he (the Duke of Devon shire) should like to know whether the Lord Lieute nant's views were acted upon, or whether they were not ? The Noble Duke concluded with proposing a Resolution to the effect, that, learning with deep re• Bret the ill success of coercive measures in relation to Ireland, and sit far condemning the conduct of Go vernment, it was the duty of the House to resort, without delay, to more conciliatory means. Earl BATHIIIIST,whiIe complimenting the Noble Duke on the candour of his conduct, denied that the United Parliament was.olinoxious in the manner that had been described to their Lordships. He had only - to refer to the Statute Book subsequently to the Union of the tlko kingdoms/ to shew that the impu tation of coercion in legislating had no foundation.— With respect to the landed interests of Ireland, all their Lordships knew that Leland, from a grazing country, had turned to an agricultural country ; and here he asked what had been the conduct of Go vernment ? Why, in the year 1806, this country had given to Ireland the monopoly of grain, even excepting colonial, imports,. which gave to Ireland the command of thegrain market. If, in pursuance of .this facility, their Lordships just looked at the quantity of grain imported, it would appear thit the proportion had since been quadrupled, even taking the date of la,t year. Nor was this all—let their Lordships lock deliberately at the different measures proposed fur improving the administration of justice in 'lreland, where no ameliorations had been omitted ; and then let it be asserted, with even the semblance of truth, that no ameliorations were made. So, again, v..ith respect to the manner of choosing the Shei iffs, which before was managed in an underhand and , most unsatisfactory way ; the selection of those officers had been assimilated to the system practised in this country. Another. greargrievance to the people of Ireland in the administration of justice, was respecting . the fines imposed on the foifeitute of recognizance' in all cti minal proceedings, which detect had also, been cor rected. With respect to the choosing of Grand Ju ries, another most important point in the due admi nistration of justice, while formerly bills, were pre seated on Ole mere depositions of the Magistrates, this proceeding was likewise now assimilated to that of the Engliih Courts, and no bills could be returned without the examinatiop of evidence.to sustain them. Then again, there had been introduced a general Police Ilia into Ireland, the merits of which appeared in the very first dispa'tch from the present Lord Lieutenant of Ireland, who mentioned the progressive confidence of the Gentry and the people in the operation of the measure. An alteration had taken place even as to the characters of the Magistrates, though it must certainly be acknowledged that some difficulties were consequent on the adoption of the measure at the present ti.ne. Much was also to be hoped from the introduction of Petty Sessions in Ireland ; for it was unneces , ary to enlarge on the difference thus likely to ensue in the administration of justice, when admi nistered by an individual at his own house, and a public proceeding in open court, under the controul of public opinion, which prevented all private' influ ence, so as to render intrigue and hearsay of no avail. These were measures in.t boastful in themselves, - though silently operative, which he conceived the Noble Duke had quite overlooked when he ventured to affirm that nomeasures had been adopted, either by his Majesty's Ministers or the Imperial Parliament, for improving the administration of justice in Ire land. There were, besides, the crying evils arising out of Grand Jury Presentments, by which, at pre sent, those who undertook local works in Ireland had the means of covertly appl3 ing for money ; and the con etvence was, the raising of local taxes, obtained by favouritism and squande: ed in eitraVagance, while no account was given to the *Public of Monies'so ex pended, not to say wasted. TO shew their-Lordship" the frightful extent of such "impOsts.,- he need only to state that at a peyiod'Aerilthe Whole reve• nue of Leland' amonnted to only, fOur -millions, not less than one million was elipetidod- its chi" fratticulter way; and he would leave thetiliordshipi tif-donsider how far the interests And happiness: of litre people of - Ireland had been consulted. But there wat_another frank measure for the relief of Irish' WOO,. in the advance of small loans, upon ,securities for repay ment ; which, it was beliived, had greatly -relieved the people of Ireland . . Then, • in furtherance- of a il these, came the relief for, or rather the improvement of, the It ish fisheries. The latter had met with par ticular encouragement in the neighbourhood of Cork, and it was to be hoped, if the experiment were; suc ' cessful, or likely to be so, that Parliament would go further in encouraging it. With-respect to Mr.o*en's plan, on which he did pot pledge him Self, he had only to remark, that whereas 30,0001. had been voted for the furtherance of it, the Parliament of Ireland were unable to vote more than 3001. for nearly a si milar purpose. It was desirable, in the' last place, that their Lordships should look attentively at the consequences of the consolidation of the two &ale gtiers. Before the Union, it appeared that Irelandwas responsible for two seventeenths of the National Debt; but' in the year 1817, the Imperial Parlin i went, with thosincere.virte.nitelietinF the-burthens TO TEA-DEALERS, SUGAR-MERCHANTS, AND OTHERS. ANTED, by a Person of Respectability, a SITUATION as TRAVELLER, who can write an exceeding good hand, is conversant in Accompts, and has a ge neral knowledge of Dinines; ; would have nu objection to travel to any part of England. The most respectable references can be given, and security to any amount, if required. Letters (post paid), addressed to Mr. Charles Benson, Post Office, Poole, Dorset, will meet with immediate attention.
