far, that there was not in hi• profession a man of higher character and of more unsullied integrity. It was, iu lits mind, unnecessa►y to mix up the name of Mr. Globd with the case of the Petitioner. Lord CASTLEREAGH explained. M r . WY NN asked, whether the Hon. Member (M r . Quin) cool" inform the House whether lie could cimeemently base the case brought on at an early day ? Sir N. COLTHURIT said, Mr. Gould's circuit would commence on the Bth, and end the 4 29111 or March. A Member, whose name we could not learn, said, he was sure, that. upon an Occasion like the pre sent, Mr. Goold would be too good-natured to think of any alight inconvenience to himself, nail would attend at the Bar of the (louse, to explain what he knew of this transaction. _ • • Mr. TIERNEY said, that if Mr. Gnohl was peti tinned against, lie could not he a witness; and lie understood that the defence of the Hon. Member could be established without the testimony of Mr. Goold. It would, he conceived, be a great hard slip to bring a professional man assay from his • circuit, to the injury not merely of himself but of his clients; and though, as hail been remarked, he presumed Mr. Gould would be willing to make ' one sacrifices, it would not he reasonable to require them, unless his reverie, was absolutely necessary. If the Hon. Gentleman (Mr. Quin) wished for his attendance, of course every tlitug should give way to his wishes. Sir J. NEWPORT said, that from a passage in the Petition, winch lie would read to the House, it *pinned to him th a t the attendance of Gould was quite necessary. Here the Hon. Baronet read the hillowiog passage nut of the Petdoiti 'That accordingly, mu the next day, the 22d of Sepirm• her, the said Wyndham Wyndham Quin, attended by Thu lama Gorda, of the City of Dublin, Frau one of his Slake_ ty's reinisel (the c.,t foirntial Lawyer of Hint, the said Wyndinim Wyndham Quin), came to the house of the said Carew Smyth, when the said Wyndham WynahAni gain, with his own hand, delivered to the said Carew Smyth the said instrument in writing, revised and torrtetegi, approved of and is stikd by the said Thomas Gould, as the basis of that ernirart, which be the said Wyndham Wyndham Quin ssisAht to establish." Mr. BROUGHAM said, that until lie heard the statement read by the Hots,. Baronet, lie dui not know how far Mr. Gould was implicated. He con sidered the situation of that gentleman one of pe culiar delicacy; he acted iu this instance as a pros frssional IMO, as the Counsel and adviser of Mr. Quin. In that capacity lie is charged by the Pe mintier with an act which certainly would amount to a breach of the privileges of the House; mid in deed, said the Hon. Member, the charge does not stop here—it goes further, and amounts to what souk! appear on act of bribery. Io that case, he thosight the House might compel the attendance of Mr. Gould to *uses r the Petition. Mr. Wvratil said, he had no doubt but that the charges in the Petition required the attendasice of that gentleman at the bar of the House. He would too suggest, that a counter charge for a breach of the privilege of the House, should he brought against Thomas Grady, mid that a motion st Id he made to compel his utteiataiice at the bar of the House. If any thing, lie said, in the course of these proceedings, was dearer than another, it was that the author of the letter which had been read was guilty of a gross breach of privilege. - • - Mr. COUitTENAT now presented a letter, which was read by the Clerk ; it was written by Thomas Grady, the father of the Petitioner, to Mr. Wynd ham Quin. It set out with saying, " I advise you to restore my eon to the office of which you have deprived him." It then ;;ors Ott to state, that if he should receive tin answer, he would consider that Mr. Quits refused his request. It proceeds in en thiquerit declamatory style to say that the hydra of corruption should not only be openly attacked, but should also he attacked in detail. It asserts that public men are under the patronage of Ministers— that they have become corrupt—and that their exiimple would debauch and demoralise the mass of society ; but the writer expresses a hope that the general voice of the country would be raised to demand a complete Iteforin. It then attacks, with peculiar forte and asperity, the political coroluet of Mr. Quits—it say A, that in the year 1815, he had brew in the ranks of Opp o . einem ; but that lie had deserted those ranks, and settled in a richer, a milker, end more produc tire soil. It says, that within the last three years he had, by mearia of his political management, pro. cured the title of Viscount for his lather—the patronage of a county—aorl the situat' of Custt.t Rotuloruss for himself; and it charges him with 6%1'4 set up, by such of candle, a high judicial office iu the county, for purposes as profligate as they were public. %%lien the letter was read— Mr. QUIN verified that this letter was written to him by Mr. Thomas Grady. Mr. CouttrewAv said, he believed the next step was to move, that Mr. Grady should be called to the bar of the !louse. The SPEAK FR suggested, that the Flown. should, in the first instance, decide whether or nut th►y considered the letter a breach of privilege. Sir JOHN NEWPORT said, he hoped the House, on a question so important as the present, would ',lie tin hasty or ill-considered step. As to the lei t..r in question. it might, he said, be urged, that it is not addressed in the Hon. Member, or to any oilier person. Ile said, that if this miller should, as he had no doubt it would, be cleated up ►o the honour and credit of the Him. Member, the House should not lay themselves open to the tutputation of having taken any hasty step. Mr. BATHURST said, that f the statement of the Hon. Gentleman himself, as well as bum the internal evidence of the letter, there could he no doubt but that it was written fur him. The ques tion, he considered, was, whether the author ui that letter, who was now, he understood. in the immediate neighbou►hood of the House, should be suffered to have au opportunity of escape. Sir JOHN NEWPORT rose to explain. Ile said, he did nut express any doubt but that the letter win intended for the Hon. Gentleman (Mr. Quin) ; of this he did not, he could not entertain a doubt ; lint the question was, not whether there was evi dence to satiblv the Honourable Gentlenian who hull just sat d o wn, or to satisfy hint, but the fact should be recorded on the Journal , of the House ; sod all he said was, that they should not proceed hastily, or in the alniince of clear and direct evi dence. Mr. BATHURRT explained. Mr. WYNN said, tinge was now a complete chain of evidence. It was clear, from what had been stated to the House, that the letter, read that even. mg, was addressed to Mr. W. Quin. Ile should therefore move— ,' That the writing and sending the said Wert ill Mr. W. Quits, • Member of this House, is • high breach of the pri vileges of this House." Mr. BROUGHAM paid, 84 all such questions were of paramount delicacy, it appeared recitlitirly Ile. cessary that sip inn-statement should go forth, as to the grounds on which the House came to a derision —and his nation for particularly wishing that ground to be clearly and particularly stated wa•, because lie did not hind any threat held out against the Hon. Member in his present capacity. There wa♦ still, in his opinion, one of the gros.est breaches of Parliamentary privilege that ever came under the consideration of the House of Commons, comprised its this charge. It was of no consequence whether the Hon. Gentleman were a Member of this House or not—the gravamen of the charge was, that the power of Parliament would ire exerted to induce a Gentleman to do a ',articular act. It was is two-fold breach of Parliamentary privilege. Its the first place, there was a threat, that the great consti tutional power of petitioning Parliament would be prostituted to the base end, that of compelling a Gentleman to do an act, which he conceived to he improper —and, with respect to this part, it mat tered not, as he bad before said, whether the indi vidual to whom this threat applied was or was not a Member of Parliament. In the second place, there was a breach of privilege (though of late years it had lint been much *nuked on), that of' libelling a Member of Parliament, in his situation as Mem ber. There was this, besides, to be observed, that, by sending this letter to the Hon. Gentleman, the writer had committed one act of publication, and, by having previously shown that letter to another in dividual, he was guilty of a second—each of which was a breach of the privileges of Parliament. On all these grounds, he felt that this was clearly a breach of the privileges of the House, and he con ceived it was necessary, fur his own satisfaction, to state what were his views on the subject. The mutton was theu carried Isensiue coutradi cente. COUATEWAT then moved, " That Thomas Win. Grady rho forthwith attend this House." The SPEAKER—" Serjeant, see if Mr. Grady be without—let him he called." After a pause of a few minutes, the Serjeant appeared at the Ler, accompanied by Mr. Grady. The letter addressed to Mr. Quin having been handed in him— The SPEAxE addressed him thus--" Mr. Grady, you will look at that letter. and state, whether it is your hand-writing." Mr. Grady, Lifter exam' g the letter. declared, that, by the present light, lie could not distinguish the hand-writing. One of the clerks then brought down • candle from the table—and Mr. Grady, after again look ing over the letter, said, as well 148 we could col lect, that, fur some years past, he could not accu rately distinguish hmd-writing by candle-light. Ile laud no recollection whatever of having written this letter. The SPEA To what letter does Mr. Grady address his observations >" Mr. Grady" To this letter in my hand. I cannot very well read it—but I do not recollect having rent any such letter to Mr. Quin." On the motion of Mr. RANKS, Mr. Grady withdrew from the bar. Mr. BANICes then suggested, that the better mode or proceeding would be, to have the letter read sit the presence of Mr. Grady, and then to apk him, whether he had or had not sent that letter ? Mr. MARTIN said, the point was, to identify whether that letter was the writing of Mr. Grady or not. Now, as Mr. Grady had said, that he could hot, by candle-light, speak to that point, he could hot are how the reading of it would enable hint to give a decisive answer to the question. Mr. Grady being again conducted to the Bar, The SPEAKER said—" The witness will attend, while the letter is read." Mr. Grady, fora moment or Iwo. seemed not hear the SPEAKER, probably on account of the dis tance between them—but, mi the question, " Cell you bear 1" being put, he answered in the affirma tive, and the business went on. The letter, requiring Mr. Quin to reinotate Mr. Goody'' , soil ►u the uf►ce of Clerk of the Peace. wet► then reed. The SPEAKER-1 0 Mr. Grady, you have now heard the lent, mod. I melt, whether you MI mote pwalively that you *ere, or were nut, the uuthor of that irtter Mr. Grady, we believe (hut from his intuition at the bar, directly under the gallery, we cannot vouch for our accurde l answered, that he had been offered in annuity, corruptly, us he thought, by Mr. ham Quin, to bind himself and his soil to that Gvllltemises interest.—(Cries of" Orde►, order.") The SPEAK El—" The witness must confine him self to the question." Mr. Grady-4' I cannot recollect any thing about this letter. I have certainly written to the extent of twenty or thirty sheets on this subject. mere speculative opinim.s, not letters. 1 never sent this letier to Mr. Quin." The SPEAK I will now put two questions to you—Ft.. , whether you can positively say, that yon did not write that letter—which is quite nidepentlent of the second question, whether it Nils conveyed, or authorised to be conveyed by you to Mr. Quin ? Are you the author of that letter ?" Mr. Grady—" I don't recollect &my thing of the sort, in the shape or nature of a letter. I have written on this subject—but I never sent to Mr. Quin what I wrote. A given sum was offered to tue fur my interest."—( Cries of 1, 'Oder I") Tht SPEAKIR—" The witness must not depart from the question." Mr. Grady—" I have written, as T before said, on this subject, but I never sent any such letter to Mr. Quin. I hive certainly written to Mr. Quin, but never any thing of this description." The SPEA sil—" Do I understand the witness righth,—does lie mean to 101 y that he neveror untrioriowil to be sent, to Mr. Quin, the letter before the Douse ?" Mr. Gutty answered in the affirmative—and sv::• then ordered to Lord CAret.EREAGti said, as Mr. Grady had denied liiivii.g written •any thing of this desciipll , M. in the shape of a letter to Mr. and as lie had stated. gist lie could not gist' au 111/11111M oil the hand•writiug until he looked at tt in the obiy. light, he thought it would be proper to have bum takers into custody, and kept •there, till a more favourable state of the light enabled I to speak positively to this letter. Mr. BiIouGHAM said, they were riot tied by Mr. Grody'd answer—as it was in their power to deal with the case themselves, could they get other evidence. Ile understood Mr. Grady to ►ay, 111 , C that lie had not written this paper, but that he hail written nothing that aorouutrd 10 11 letter. Lord CAsTLEREAGII thee, u•krd of Mr. whether he believed the writing to he that of Mr. Grady ? Mr. QUIN said, he had no wish whatever to pu nish this individual—lnd the question having been put to him, he helieved, that the letter lie had re. ceived, and the superscription on the envelope, were in the hand-writing of Mr. Grady. Ile knew him for year., and was acquainted with his hand, particularly his signature. Lord CASTLEREAGII said, that this evidence proved both the fact of the baud-writing and the publication. Mr. QUIN said, he could speak more positively to the superscription, of which he had no doubt, than to the hand-writing of the letter. Mr. Alderman WOOD inquired, whether the Hon. Gentleman spoke of the letter now before the !louse? Mr. Quite answered in the affirmative. Mr. Bitouctiast said, there was, in this CUP, first, is positive denial that Mr. Grady ever wrote this letter; and next, that though lie had written on this subject, he had never sent what he bail so written to Mr. Quin. Then, on the other side, they had the evidence of the Hon. Member, who was there as a witness, not as a party, that the writing was that of Mr. Grady, and be spoke from so experience of many years. This letter he re ceived by the post, the cover being directed in tt.e hand-writing of Thomas Grady. This amounted to such strong proof both of the writing and the sending, that he could see sin reasonable cause for doubting the facts. The House, in his opinion, might now proceed to deal witl► the case. With respect to Mr. Quin's eligibility as a witness, he would say one word. It was of no consequence whatever. whether the charge brought against hint were true or not, there appeared to be a decided breach of the privi leges of the House, an individual having been threatened, that, if lie did not do a particular act, the House of Commons would proceed in a certain way to his detriment. This being the case, it mat. tered not whether the person so assailed was t► Member of the House or nut, he was quite comp.- kilt to give evidence. Mr. COURTENAY said, the House were about to proceed on a case, as strong as a case of this kind could possibly be. The fact of the hand-writing was substantiated by an Hon. Gent leman,while the denial rested on the most prevaricating testimony of the most prevaricating witness that es er appeared at the bar. Mr. W. WYNN said, in the second letter, an allusion was made to the sending of the first. The proving of the second, would therefore be sufficient for both. Mr. Alderman Wood said, that allowing Mr. Grady to have written the letter, there was no proof of his having sent it. Mr. BATHURST obterved, that • letter having been received through the Post-office, on the hand writing of a particular individual, inch letter must he considered as liaising been sent by the person writing it. Mr. W. WYNN RiCived 44 That Thornad Grady did write and send the said let. ter."—Carr ird wens. con. Mr. WYNN neat moved— " That Thomas Grady, in having written and sent the said letter, is guilty of a high breach of the privilege► of this House." After a few words from Mr. BANKE3 and Mr. W. WYNN, the motion was agreed to nem. cum Mr. WYNN diets moved— ., That Thomas Grady, for his said offence, be committed to his Majesty's gaol of Newgate."—AKreed to Nees. eon. On the motion of Sir R. WILSON—C. Smyth, D. Garliett, Thomas Mansergh, Thomas Goold, of the city of Dublin, Barrister-et-law ; Richard Smith, Clerk of the Peace for the county of Li merick ; D. Roach, and D. Gavin, Solicitor, were ordered to attend at the bar, on Monday sennight, to give evidence with respect to various transactions connected with Mr. Grady's Petition. Alderman WOOD was anxious, as the present was a case of great importance, and it was neces sary that Gentlemen should be well acquainted with it, before they came to a decision, that the letter read that evenitig, and all the documents connected with the case, •s far as they could be collected, should be printed. Mr. P. Moues, Sir R. WiLsort. and Mr. C. Hurculaisox, were of the same opinion. After a few words from Mr. W. %Virws, Lord CMITLESERGII, and Mr. D. GILBERT, the pro- position was agreed to.

His health, we may therefore presume, is Improving. Nothing can snore strongly evince the hirer:ll4, and. lit the same time, the confidence of his MAJEsTY's Governmect in the growing affections of his people, than his clemency to his former political enemies. The prei.ent Papers furnish a new and striking proof of this divo,ition, but one, we admit. which might lie expected from an Administration composed of so much of the ci-devant revolutionary strength and iiiHuence. Io the Chamber of Peer'. on the 18111, the Count de CASIELLANE moved an Address to the KING, itra . ing that he would pro pose a law for the filial of the law Of the 971 i of November, 1815, og:litist seditious explefit•im) , .; mid the Chamber resolved to take this motion into consideration.—General SARRAZIN trill be tried on a Cilirge of bigamy, br fore the Court of ASI4IZeI. at Paris, in the ensuing month.

There was an insurrection al-o among the Stridesi.s at the Royal College of Nantes, un the 13th, but of minor importance. The French Fowls are rather on the decline. The S per Cent. Consols were, on the 18th, 69 8-10 I.—Bank Actions, 1,325 f. The proceedings in the House or Commons last evening will be found possessed of more than or dinary interest. It will be remembered, that some short time since the substance of a Petition was stated to the Rouse by Sir ROBERT WILSON, in which a Gentlemen of the name of GRADY com plained that the lion. W. WYNDHAM QUIN. be ing appointed in the month of July la►t to the office of Cuslus &Naarlsm of the county of Lime rick, •ud holding, by virtue of this office, the pa tronage of the county, deprived the Petitioner, without any alleged cause. of the office of Clerk of the Peace, which he had held for the period of fifteen years ; that afterwards Mr. W. Quits offer ed to the Petitioner 2001. a-year, provided lie and his freehold tetiaitts, to the number of 100, would vote at elections for representatives of the county as Mr. Quire should dictate. Such were the alle gations against Mr. QUlN—who last evening, in consequence of an order of the. House, attended its Isis place to answer them. The Hou. Member de nied the charge, and asserted, that the offer of 2001. a-year was made unconditionally, and in com ons-ion for the distressed situation of Mr. GRADY, and that the proposal of a political connexion ori ginated altogether in the complainant. A letter from Mr. GRADY to Mr. Quits was produced in the House by Mr. COURTENAY, and read by the Clerk. This letter was considered libellotp, and a breach of the privileges of the House of Com mons, anti for having written it Mr. GRADY was ordered to be committed to Newgate. The further proceedings on the charge against Mr. Quits were postponed. We understand that a certain number of Gentle men, styling themselves an " Agricultural Associa tion," occasionally meet at a tavern in Palace-yard, and pass Resolutions relating to the general agri cultural interests of the empire. These Gentle men, as might be anticipated, are strenuous advocates for the imposition of further protecting duties on the importation of corn, and other pro duce of the earth ; or, to speak more properly, are desirous of prohibiting altogether the intro. duction of such foreign articles of consumption as may chance to interfere with their views of their own interests. We state this without meaning to impute censure on their conduct, fur, sincerely speaking, we look upon the strict observinice of self-interest, not only among classes, but indivi duals in society. to be the very spring of national advancement.
