NEWPORT had, a motion . to make,* and he thought itlfeeessary to make it now for if time baiiness which stood on the order were entered upon to-morrow, it would bean infraction of the Act of Union, By that Act it was enacted, that from the Ist of January, 1801, all' prohibitions and duties on the exportation of the produce of one country to the other should cease: It was time to see - how they stood, and to ascertain if this Act were binding on both parties,' It ought not to be infringed, doing this they would opcu a door which they might not he able to shut. lie was anxious to preserve harmony between •thy_ two countries, but harmony could never last mmmm 'less both were sure that equal juqice would be done: lie did not believe the Right Iloonorable Secretary bad meant to infringe, the Act of Union ; but when it was seen, 'that the measure propostA was .a manifest violatiOn of that Vl,.he trusted it•would not meet the 'support cat Parliament. If any advantages arose from the exp4tation of Starch from Ireland, these were.adrantages which Ireland. had a right to enjoy ; and if time Act. of, Union were to be broken when its provisions might prov.e beneficial to Ireland, they had better do what be would be sorry to recominenck-give each country a Legislature of its own, to look after its interests. I-se concluded by moving two. resolutions.--The first set forth, that by the 6th Article of the Act of Union, all prohibitions, &C. of the" exportation of the produce of one country to the other ivere to cease. The second declared the above article could not be 'varied without A manifest hreach of tot. compact made at that time between the Legislatures of the two countries, now the . United Empire. • • • Mr, PEETLE said he was not prepared to expect any discussion neon the subject that night ; hut the.ftight Hoti. ilaroeet had made it necessary for him to explain it is reason fur giving the notice which steodfor to-morrow. The House would recollect that, in the early part of, the present Se.lsioo, the Chaocetier. of the Exchetiner brought in it Nil to continue tile probil)ition against m a k.. lug Starch from dour, &c. • The expediency of ex.-: tending that measure to..lreland:Alien naturally oecurred , to because otherwise the whole sup • ply of the Eetgiish market' would be thrown into .the of the Irish manufacturer, by the prohibitiott imposed npon the Mll. , tillfilettlrer. Upon his return to Ireland, he wrote a letter to the starch. niannfaeturers; in which he apprized them that the prohibi tion would be extended . tot that country.-- In nnswer to which, ite. received numeous sentatiOns, stating, that such a measure would in terfere with the. linen manufacture,: in which starch' NvaS much used, and whiCh was, abselutely neces sary for damask ~aod the liner kinds of linen. eonsequence of these representations, he ad dressed a letter to time Linen Board, requesting their opinino epos the subject .; .and that Board gave it as their opiuion, 'that the proposed prohi, bition would mterially. interfere with the linen manufacture : tinder these circumstanties he was in T , ciuced to abandnn his first intentiOn, and to adopt the oae of which he. had given notice to-tour 7 row. , He diselainied„ hi the strongest manner, any, with to infringe the articles of Union, or to propose any measure of legislation favourable to Groat Britain „and injurions - to Ireland. Nothing could be further from • his intention.; in fact,, his , only wish in this measure was to benefit Ireland, by, taking care that her staple manufacture should not be injured. But.surely it would not be contended tit it it wouldbc•fair and equal legislation to stop the reatinfattueer of England from working . , and to give to the Irish manutacturer the.whole supply o f the English market. With respect to the Articles of IJoion;it•wits provided that. the subjects of blthednutvies should be put ou tin equal tooting with regard to bounties And probibitiOns,.and -in the article alleited to by the Right Hon Bart. tittrewalca itroiiso, reserving to the Legislature the power of enacting rObihitions, giving bona ties, r,r makinr regulations respecting corn ortloor. Now starch, 'heing entirely trout flour, was certainly distinctly within the spirit .of that pro,' viso, lie should not enter, further into the sub ject at present, 'but snpuld move the previous (pi • (ion. Potisotini thought, in constrhing the. Act of Union, they must confine theenselves.to the aru 'ticks mentioned in the Statute 'Book, or .there was no kiniiving how far the Act might be strained. • • . The ettoptit.t,oa of the Ex'cneo.t.Teit observed, the rariatiOn which it was proposed to make, WPAS 'ntended solely in Itivour of Ireland. The making of Starch being`prohibited in England, this court try might he said to labour under a double prohi bition, while one prohibition only was intended for : , Ireland. Unless some such measure were adopted, English eorn might be cititert from- this country to Ireland, in order to supply.the Euglish market With search.. For the sake of the linen trade. it uas -thought. desirable not to :prohibit the e Making - of starch in Ireland, but it was not meant to induce Ireland .to supply the English •market. The . mention made of corn, meal, and A *grain, Indic rt, he conceived to ettend to all the prOdnee of grain. Sir J. N4WrcjltT shortly replied, end commented on the danger of infringing the Act of Union. lie would not divide the 'House, but wished it to ap pear Ori.the Journals:that the measure was op posed, id. runiac.

It is evident, from this simple outline Of the plot, that it IS,capuble of being worked into good ef fect, and ,if the audience had not been in some what of au untoward mood, the Farci , would have probably experienced a much more favourable re caption than it met with kst night. The Author has, we doubt not, endeavoured to adapt his piece to what he bad reason to, consider its the prevail ing, taste of the public with; respect to farces, but, from some strange perverseness in the audience, his - aim was disappointed. There' WaS an alum dance ofpuns, smite , good, and some but inditie- •• t'ent, anti there, were many whimsical rind origi nal conceits, which,.

A song,. alluding to • the ; names of the several Newspapers, in which The San was . of course referred to, as rising in the aftetßoon, had much hinnour, anti }was cored. Much opposition prevailed, and the Ma auger was called- for. Mr. - 11•AXMOND appeared, Illictproposed that the piece should .he altered, and brought forward again, alleging that considerable expense was always incorrect by new pieces. This proposal :was vio . lently resisted by some, and as clamorously supported by others : at length the Ayes seethed to:predominate, and the Farce is to be repeatetithis evening. The Authot•is said to be one of the very ingenious brothers: who wrote the akoirable work, entitled 14:meted AddresSei, or the New Pheatrani roetarum, which has de servedirrisen into so much celebrity that Criti cism might 'ast night to have treated with more • kii;rinest the production of a writer to whoM the , public are indebted for considerable enti-rtaintnent.
