The Earl of DARNLEY said that a report hid been • lenti;and gained ground, that quantities of corn, •to be the produce of Ireland, had been warehoused he thee country, but was said to have been imported from the Coalman. He wished to know if there was any foundation for this report ? The Earl of LIVERPOOL said he did not think there could' be - foundation for it. any I. Lord KING wished to know whether it was the Intention of Government to renew the BiU for the suspension of the Habeas Corpus Act in Ireland, which expired in the present month; and also the Irish Insurrection Act? The Earl of LIVERPOOL answered that it was not intended . to renew the Habeas Corpus Suspension Act, but that a motion would be made In the other House of Parliament for continuing the Insurrection Act. DISTRESS IN IRELAND. - ----- - The Earl of DARNLEY said that, on a former day) be bad asked at what time the first information of the distresses in Ire land had come to the knowledge of Government, and also the date of the period when Ministers resolved to relieve the same? This last question was now done away by the Bill brought into the other House of Parliament, last night, for affording employ meat to the Poor of Ireland, and therefore he would not press it. But, in order to ascertain the other point, he should move for the date of the first communication made to Ministers by the Government of Ireland relative to the state of distress in that country. The Earl of LIVERPOOL said that when the Noble Mar quis at the had of the Government for Ireland arrived there, his attention was particularly directed to the state of the last harvest, and it was found that no general scarcity existed there ; but with regard to the distresses of certain classes of people, their Lordships must know how diffladt it was for Government to legislate on any subject respecting the supply of provisions, or to bring forward any measure for the purpose of feeding the people. Some years ago, when a very great degree of distress pre vailed in Spitalfleids, an application was made to Government to grant them assistance ; but Government refused to give any—at the same time they thought k their duty to promote a ssabscrip don for the relief of the seamen. They had adopted the same course with regard to the distress which prevailed in Scotland, u being the best calculated to promets economy and benevo lence. The Irish Govermost led need every possible degree of activity towards reSo vi ug the sufferers: and in the midst of their activity, they fosmil that the distresses of the people were aggravated by illicit distillatioo, which was carried on to a very peat extent. He was happy to say that large subscription were now going on for the relief of the suffering peasants of Ireland. To promote those the Government had done everything in their power, because they had conceived such a plan to be best calcu latedto relieve the existing calamity. The object of affording relief could be mush better obtained by private benevolence, and be was happy to say that the people of this country were ready to promote it. To this he looked forward with much more ex pectation of success than to anything which could be done by the Goveroment. The Marquis of LANSDOWN fully agreed with the Noble Earl in what be had just said respecting the superior ellicacy of private benevolence. It gave him great satisfaction to hear that the Government of Ireland had turned their attention to this question, and taken measures to avert the distress that prevailed there. As to the distress which prevailed in Ireland, it bore no analogy whatever to that in England. There was no scarcity of sustenance in Ireland. The present miseries of the Irish peasants arose from the failure of their crops of potatoes last year ; and for those there could be no other remedy than send ing to them articles of another description. This must be done either by Government or by individuals. He was happy to Sod, from the declaration of the Noble Earl, that the Irish Govero meat had directed their attention to this subject ; and that it was intended to afford relief by giving employment to the labouring people of Ireland, whose distress at this moment was occasioned by an incapacity to purchase food. They were obliged to con sume the food which should have been sold to enable them to pay rents, and as the landlords received no rents they were unable to employ any labourers. In this state of distress, arising from the want of circulation of money, he thought it was most wise in the Government to appropriate a sum of money for the purpose of employing the people to public works ; and when the BM introduced into the other House last night for that purpose should come before their Lordships, he hoped they would sus_ peed the Standing Order, and pass it in all the stages at once.— For these reasons, and a s did not wish the communications of Government should be made public, he wished his Noble Friend . would not press his motion. Lord DARNLEY withdrew his motion accordingly. The Bills on the table being read in their stages, the House adjourned to Modday. HOUSE OF COMMONS.

Mr. HOME rase to present a Petition, which, he said, h a d been put into his hands by an individualpitk whom he wasnet acquainted. Before he agreed to bring st before the House, h, had made inquides as to the truth of the statements from the neighbours of the person. Ile bad also sent the Petition to the Magistrate who was complained of (Mr. White), but that Gen. deman had not given any answer as to the matter of complaint; he merely said, that some Hon. Member would meet it in the House, on his behalf. It was a Petition from Robert Cromby, wba stated, that in April, 1621, he bad taken the lease of the public-house called the White Hone, Chelsea. He had paid for it a sum of 6001. The license was transferred under the we eks of the Magistrates, and with that same sanction he opened the house. When his spirit Beense was to be renewed, it w ts insmediately granted; but when the time for the renewal of the beer license came, the Magistrates said that it could not be done. The Clergyman of the Parish and the Inhabitants joined in a Petition in Cronsby's favour but it had no eff e ct. li e t h en applied to the Magistrate (Air. White) to know the ground of his bbjections; that Gentleman said that the refusal to grant a license was caused by circumstances which had occurred pre. violas to Crombes taking the House. There was one curious circumstance in the- present case, that though this man had a spirit license, be should be prosecuted if be sold any, until a a beer license was granted to him. He (Mr. Hume) agreed with the individual that his was a case of great hardship ; Le also considered it a great inconvenience that beer and spirit tenses should not be granted at the same period of the The Petitioner implored the House to take his case into their consideration. orotthe Parisi of Poor e Sir ROBERT HERON said, without remarking on the com. plaint of the Petitioner, he was of opinion that nothing could be more mischievous than to grant permission to sell spirits without a beer Banes: it would render public-houses mere gin shops. Mr. DAWSON said, that frequent complaints had been made of the late hours and disorderly conduct of the house in question. The Petitioner had been fined, and repeatedly cautioned. Hi.; .Petition was unanimously rejected by the Magistrates—it was sat the act of Mr. White alone. That Gentleman positively denied that he had ever assigned as a reason for refusing the license, that the house was disorderly before Cromby had taken it. After a few wordi from Mr. Alderman Damn and Mr. Benner, the Petition was brought up, and laid on the table. Mr. THOMAS WILSON presented a Petition from the Inhabitants of St. Martin-le-Grand and Fostendane, complain ing of the inconvenience that quarter of the City sustained by the preparations made for the building a new Post Office, which was pot yet erected.

Mr. CURWEN presented a Petition from the' Horne cf Keys, in the Isle of Man, complaining that certain legacies, in. tended for the education of the poor in the island, had been di verted from that purpose. Mr. PEEL said he would make inquiry on the subject. Sir JOHN NEWPORT inquired whether any steps were about to be taken in consequence of the Report of the Cumuli:- sioners respecting Offices in the Court of Exchequer in Ireland? The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER replied, that the subject had been some time under consideration, at:d he hoped, before long, to have certain regulations upon it to submit to the House. Sir JOHN NEWPORT said, that if something were not done before the 4th of June, be should himself submit a propo . skim on the subject. Mr.WESTERN presented a Petition which had been agreed to at a numerous Meeting of the County of Essex, et the distress which not only affected the agricultural, but all *her classes of the Sr HARVErro I. bore testimony to the existence of the dii• trams of which the Petitioners complained. Mr. LANNA RD observed, in confirmation of the distresses of the Petitioners, and of their anxiety to obtain relief, that they stood exposed to incessant rain fir five hours at the bleeting, which was held at Chelmsford, for the purpose of agreeing to this Petidos.—The Petition was laid on the table, and ordered to be printed. Sir N. COLTHURST postponed until the 7th of June his motion for a Campine, on the Act relating to foreign Butter. On the motion of Mr. Benner, the Home resolved itself info Committee of the whole House on the Manslaughter Bid.— The Howe shortly after resumed, and the Report was brought up ; which, oa the autism of Dr. Plummer's, was ordered to be taken into further consideration on Monday next. On the motion of Mr. W. C.auntan the House resolved itself into a Committee of the whole House on the Recognizance B.

ILCIIRATER JAIL. Alderman WOOD said he was anxious to put a question to the Right Honourable Gentleman the Secretary of State, as be believed be laboured under some tullapprehension as to hat the Right Honourable Gentleman said a few evenings since. He , ried to know whether it was the intention of his Ma jesty's Government to prosecute Bridle, the late Jailer of Heise, ter Jail? If Government determined to prosecute Bridle, he would then, in the motion of which he bad given notice, embus himself to the conduct of the Magistrates. Mr. Secretary PEEL said, what he stated on the former occasion was this, that be had signified directions to be given to his Majesty's Attorney-Oeneral to prosecute Bridle, contsivirg that the allegations against Wm were sufficiently strong to render it necessary to bring them under judicial investigation. As to the conduct Of the Ibigistra tee, he conummleated on 'ha subject with the Lord t of the County of Somerset, and be believed it was under the consideration of the local Av thanks of that County. It appeared to him to be more pru dent to leave the matter at present in the hands of the Executive Government; but after an investigation had taken place, he would then have no objection to present the whole subject to the !loose; but he deprecated any discussion on it sow, as it might tend to prejudice the judicial inquiry. He thew& th e decision of the Honourable. Alderman on withdrawing his me deb was a wise one, and he hoped he would continue of the same opinion. As he was on the subject of lichester Jail, he wished to make a few obserratiois on what had fallcu the other evening from the 'lmmutable Baronet, the Member for the County of Somerset (Sir Thomas Lethbridge). The Honour able Baronet said that a certain door was closed, and that 34:•• Hunt was debarred his usual hours of walking. The caviar - nm which he would give to that circumstance was, that tee part of the jail in which Mr. Hunt was permitted to walk l'"' burnt down. Whilst it was rebuilding a door was dosed, and Mr. Hoot was no longer permitted to walk there.;, but that Pr e ' minor arose entirely trust the circumnanCe of - that part it at IN a 111GUZICa w.•••••, a ' 4 .
