In the course of the present Session it must ealsilyistities into the causes of distress, sift 'them to the botteillis p ,. endeavour to ascertain and apply a remedy. , Hishiseets had sett alluded to his visit in,l relied doneg thelast yell: He (the Earl of Rodeo) had had'the satisfactlee, and hid would call it the privilege of witnessing his llajMtee reception. and he would appeal to every Noble Plinf ta • who bad been equally present. , whether it was no scene taltulated to rejoice the heeds of all who were at tached to their King and their toiletry, and who knew howloyalty must leadto the prosperity of Ireland. His Majesty's visit had keen. and wonid be of incalculable advantage to that country, notwithstanding the out' rages with which it bad been afflietel. It had removed', those lonpstanding differences and deep enmities which I had been for ages the bane of Ireland: and his Ma jestye parting advice, conveyed in a latter from .Lord Sidmontb, had produced a most salutary impressioo, which, he trusted, neither time nor distance would eve; erase. This was a part of his Majesty's speech is which' he felt himself most deeply interested, as it was ems sleeted with the best interests of that country, where, be lamented to say, a newly sprung system of outrage bad justly called down his Majesttie animadversion. But he was unwilling to occupy the House at length 1 with his opinion on the circumstances in which Ireland was plated, as an opportunity would shortly occur to ie. instigate the evils which it suffered. ;ad tlas reme dies which might be applied to . them. He s h o nld however be guilty of • great dereliction of duty, if he did oat express the conviction of his mind as to the root and cause of motto( those evils and outrages.

He knew..thit he had trespassed at great length on the at tention-of their Lordships. but Ose subject pressed leeply upon his mind, and be should not have been con tented on his return to Ireland next week, had he not expressed to their Lordships his conviction respecting the chief causes of the outrages in that country. The Noble Earl then concluded by moving an Address to Ms Majesty, echoing Wick the sentiments of the Speech. ',Ord IVA LSINIIH A H seconded the motion. Fortu nately for him, after the able manner in which the Noble Earl had treated all the points contained in his Mejesty's Speech, it was unnecessary that he should trouble their Lordships at any length. Ile then briefly recapitulated the different topics of the Speech. and expressed his hearty coincidence in all its sentiments, on which grounds he was happy to support the present Address.

The Nobie set - down expressing his assent -generally to the a s e at i fec ei t matter of the Speech, though it contained some state ments of which be could not entirely approve. Will this Impression. on his mind, he should not oppose the Address. • The Earl of LIVERPOOL, though be did not think that the observations of the Noble Marquess required a general' explanation on his 'part, would still refer to some points which the Noble Marquess had brought before their Lordships. The Noble Marquess in alba sloe to the redactioos which had been wade in our naval and military establishments, would fain represent this year as the first time that such reductions were con templated. Dot it would be in their Lordships' recol lection, that in the course of the last year, reducti o ons had been effected to the atho unt of from 1,0110,0001. t 2,000,0001. and it had been then said by his Majesty's Government, that the diminution of the public burden, particularly in the army and navy, was to he gradual. Whether the reductions which had lately been made would prove satisfactory to the Noble Marquess, orld to their Lordships , he (the Earl of Liverpool), cou oot take upon himself to say, till the necessary explanations and details were gone igo. lie only wished to guard his Majesty's tiovernment from the imputation that any class of persons had been treated with more harshness, or with tagreater measure of injustice (a more appro priate term), than those who, filling high offices, were willing to deal out to themselves, while they telt it their duty to advise the reductions in question. Makieg every allowance for the feeling which called for such reductions, he could.not say at the same time, that they were of a nature to afford any material relief to the Agriculturists. He fully, agreed with the Noble Marquess in the position he hail laid down, that no one great i n could be served, in the pro-- perky of which all other interests did not participate. He admitted, however, that the agricultural interest mita always be the first, however important might be the con inertial and manufacturing interests. But if the com mercial and manufacturing interests prospered, they mint necessarily serve the agricultural interest; and those who woula strike a blow at the two former, would inevitably louvre the latter.—(Hear, hear!) —The Noble Marquess: In the course of his speech, a.iverti4l to the risk which commercial men ran by excessive speculation; Out they were now touch more cautious than during the tear. being content with moderate profits. There was every raison to believe, that commerce and manufactures rested now ou a much more solid foundation than before. Coming to the remedy adverted . to by the Noble 3lar guess as having been adopted within the la st t wenty-font be coul d assure their Lordships that no fetch pro ' potation as that stated by the Noble :Marquess had Keep, mule by Ail ltairstv's t i nvernme nt.
