The House of Commons was for Emancipation, and the House of Lords against it, while his Majesty's Government was left without any opinion at all I Things had gone on in this manner for years, but was it proper, was it expedient —nay, was it safe, to continue in such a state of disunion ? The Noble Duke disclaimed the impartation that the Government Was intimidated, while he admitted, and even enforced the necessity of settling a question Which agitated the country, and consequently retarded its prosperity. And was not such a State of things calculated to attract the conside ration of his Majesty's -Government ? If it was not, we cannot see what could, or what ought to attract it. " We could not, my Lords," said the Noble Duke, " we could not in such a state of things, take into consideration in the Cabinet any question relating to Ireland, in which Was not in some way or other connected the Roman Catholic Question.--(Hear.)—Both in this House and the other House of Parliament, tbisi:was felt to be the case. This was one of the evils which I and my colleagues had to consider. when we 'offered our advice to his MAJESTY on the Subject. If the Noble Lord (FAL 40uTir) will look at the difficulties attending 41101 a state of things, not only in that part of the empire, but in England also, he will, I am persuaded, see many reasons for inducing us to adopt the course we have, rather than the un- Worthy motive which he attaches to us, and for which I maintain, my Lords, there never existed the slightest grounds.—(Cheers.)-- t Say, my Lords, moreover, that it required much more firmness of character, much more resolu tion in my Noble Friend (Earl BATHURST), apd my Right Hon. Friend in the other House of Parliament (Mr. PEEL), to come forward, as a Minister, and urge Parliament to adopt a mea- I hre, against which he, and my Noble Friend, bare always been opposed. It required, I re- Peat, my Lords, much more firmness of charac ter to 'come forward in the mariner ray Right NH. Friend has done ; he has, if I may so e xpres s it, sacrificed his political influence and 9 1 oracter, in advocating a cause which he is C o nvinced is essential for the public security." ln'this view of the case we entirely coincide W ith the Duke of WELLINGTON. The ques tion,b of I re l an d me t th e C a bi net at every turn. Th ey could not think of any thing else with 4 tisfacti on , .nor even v.'ith propriety, w hil e t a eh a questign of Nital importance to the welfare of the country remained unsettled. The earl,Was of too great a magnitude to be resisted la ry lo nger , an d hi s M ajesty ' s Government ve show n t h e i r w i s d om b y d o i ng at once `vhat must be done hereafter, when fear might be imputed —but at present the imputation is ,not only base but malicious. There never was time within the last 20 years, said the Duke of WELLINGTON, when the question could be settled with less grounds for its appearing to be done under an imputation of fear than the pre -Belit--and the Ultras know it. The conduct of Mr. PEEL will be more ap- Pteciated when' the Act of Emancipation has te 'eiVed the Royal Assent than at the pre :4 moment, when the i n t o l eran t a are so 40 1 confounded by the near prospect of t it he chang e " th a t th e y h ave ta k en l eave of ii 'it sober senses. Their only cry now is timl Mr. PEEL , but remained as true as btselv es , t h ere wou ld b e not hi ng to fear, h t 4 e has become enli g ht ene d, an d we can - O t uphold the cause of bigotry unsupported Alts most * efficient patron—we have lost Mr. 4 4. and the influence of office together." , Mr. pw, 74 , has acted wisely. has con. 4 1 ted the good of his country, rather than the w : 631 1 views of int eres t e d part i es ; — an d t h ose vi ; (3 are now the most voc if erous o f hi s a b users ere long see like him, and not only follo w , pt praise the course he has taken.

T he poor alarmists are rivalling each other who shall have the greatest number of skins in one petition, as if it, mei it, like a deep-sea lead line, depended urn its leagth. If we may believe the authority of the Gazette de France, the Russians have changed their toue, and will now be content to make peace on the terms of the treaty of Akermann. Perhaps this may ultimately prove the case, hut we do not think the temper of the Emperor NICHOLAS is yet so far subdued as to moderate itself to peace, without some indemnity for the expellees of the war. We suppose it not unlikely that Russia may insist upon keeping possession of Varna, and the principalities, as a guarantee for the free navigation of the Black Sea. The conquests in Asia too, will not be given up without some j compensation. 'We have been favoured with an extract of a private letter from Mexico, dated 12th Dec.:— Since I last wrote I have received detailed information front our friend of passing events in the capital, it appears that perfect tranquillity had been restored, and that the party in power were adopting energetic measures to pre serve it, but confidence had suffered a severe shock, and the means they resorted to to obtain the power they hold condemns them in the eyes of the better part of the public. Up to the 13th inst. the stores continued closed. lam happy to say that the greater part of the goods on the road had reached the capital in safety. I have no doubt of the lawful Government soon resuming its functions, and the faction that has so audaciously attacked it falling to the ground. The, state of Queretero, Guanaxvato, Jalisco, anti Zacatecas, have already followed the good example set them, and Oaxaca will undoubtedly - act on the same prin ciple. By information received this day we have every reason to believe that General St. Anna has already deli vered himself up, and thus will have ended the disturbances in this state. Foreigners' lives and property have certainly been respected, but they will have undoubtedly to bear the lasses consequent in such immense destruction. New York Papers to the 24th January have been received. It appears that an insurrection had taken place in Mexico, occasioned by the late contentions respecting the office of Presi dent. The accounts are rather confused ; public business was totally interrupted, but it was ex pected that order would soon be restored. Letters have been received to-day from Mr. OXENFORD, per his Majesty's ship Volage, which state that he has concluded a treaty as agent to the National Brazilian Mining Society, for a Mine on the same strata as the famous Congo Loco,!and with the same original proprietors. At present the Mine is at work, under inferior ma nagement, but still produces a considerable quantity of gold per week. We understand the NN hole of the purchase has been made, together with houses, and 100 negroes, at present on the estate, for 100,000 milreas ; and the sellers take 600 shares in part payment. We regret to learn that accounts have been received at Dublin from Demerara, stating that a very destructive fire had taken place in that Colony, which destroyed one-half of George town. The damage is estimated at from 250,0001. to 300,000/. THE FUNDS.-(THIS DAY.) CITY, Twßzivß o' CLocr. - Intelligence was this morning received by the Sophia, Captain Edwards, arrived at Dublin from Demerara, of a most destructive fire in George Town, which broke out on the 29th Dec., and continued its ravages with undiminished fury till the 31st. It commenced at a grog-shop, and has nearly destroyed half the houses in the town, store-houses, &c. &c. Several lives have been lost by the de structive element ; the loss is computed at a rough estimate, at from 2.50 to 300,0001. sterling; it was supposed it would fall heavy on persons connected with Glasgow, as we understand part of the property is insured in the Phcenix Insurance Company. Ad vices have been received from Terceira, Jan. 3 l, but the letters we have seen contain nothing of the least importance from that island. Consols opened this morning at 86M for money, and 86i 87 for April account, but money Stock still continuing plentiful, has had the effect of causing them to go back to 86i I for money, 861 buyers for account, and 86i buyers for April. India Stock is a little better, 231 232; the Bonds continue 48 50; Ex chequer Bills 50 52 prem. In the Foreign Funds every thing in South Ame rican Stock has worn a very heavy appearance, par ticularly in Mexican Bonds, which were drooping late yesterday, but this morning have fallen from 271 28 to 24, and are now 241 5. This has been occa sioned by the deplorable state to which, by the ac counts received this morning, via America, the country is reduced by intestine broils and commotions, which render even perional property and life unsafe. The great_bone of contention is the squabble be tween the partisans of Guerrero and Pedraza, for the Presidentship and upwards of 800 persons had fallen, within two days, a sacrifice to the fury of each other when the last advices came away, a compa rative state of quiet existed, and it was understood the foreign merchants, who had in the first instance contemplated the view of retiring from such a state of affairs, had resumed a greater degree of confidence, and would remain, at least for a time. Colombian Bonds are nominally 18 19 from 191; Buenos Ayres, from 37 8, to 361 71; arid Portuguese, 501 51 ; Spanish have gone back to 9i 10, and Russian remain 971 95.

The weather at Montreal for a few days Previously is stated to have been remarkably mild and even warm for the season, the thermometer in the afternoon being frequently as high as 54. in the shade. Aluch of the snow had disappeared, and the roads on the ice were beginning to be insecure. On the 18th there was a fall of snow at night, which, if followed 1;y a . frost, would restore weather better adapted to the habits and occupations of the natives at that period of the year.

The House was occupied during the whole of the morning with arguments in this part heard appeal, the question in which arose upon the will of a Col. Trotter, who died in the East Indies, possessed of considerable sums of money and other property in Scotland. COURT OF KING'S BENCH. BRETT V. FISHER. In this case, relative to the recovery of some tolls by the Corporation of Cambridge, Lord Tenterden stated that the Court would deliver their judgment next term. COURT OF DELEGATES. The Court sat this morning for a short time, and forwarded several causes a stage, after which it adjourned. COURT OF COMMON PLEAS. STONE V. SHUFFRCY. This was an action brought by the plaintiff to re cover the value of a horse, belonging to the plaintiff, which was killed in the Blackfriars-road by a cart belonging to the defendant. It appeared from the evidence, which was very contradictory, that the cart of the defendant was moving at a walking pace towards Blackfriars bridge, about six feet from the curb-stone, when two horses belonging to the plaintiff were led in the same direction. One of the horses became restive and sprung aside, so as to come in contact with the shaft of the cart, and its thigh was broken by the concus sion, and it died. It was alleged that it was owing to the carelessness of the driver of the cart that the accident happened, and the action was accordingly brought against his master. The horse was valued at upwards. of eighty guineas. The evidence for the defendant negatived in so many particulars that adduced for the plaintiff, and it appearing that the horse's death was more the re suit of accident than of carelessness, the Jury found a verdict for the defendant. LONDON SESSIONS.-(THIS DAY.) The Sessions for the City of London were held this morning, before the Right Hon. the Lord Mayor, Recorder, Sheriff's, Aldermen Sir P. Laurie, Sir C. Hunter, Atkins, and Thorp. Several gentlemen who had been summoned on the grand Jury were fined 101. each for non-attend ance. One was excused, being more than seventy years of age, and consequently (according to his own account) superannuated. After the Grand Jury had been sworn, the RE CORDER said it was unnecessary for him to make any remarks on the present state of the Calendar, there being no ease of any aggravation ; but it was probable before their duties were concluded, that a case of a very serious and novel misdemeanor would be brought before them.—(We suppose the Learned Recorder alluded to the " plaistering" affair.) — They were then discharged until to-morrow morn ing., when they would give their attendance at the Old Bailey. Arr. William Joseph Ramsey was indicted for as saulting John Gray. The complainant, a porter in the employ of Mr. Morris, in Mark-lane, stated that on the sth of Ja nuary the defendant came to his master's warehouse, and without the least provocation, struck him several violent blows. Mr. CLARKSON, for the defendant, admitted the assault, and said his client was extremely sorry that in a moment of excitation (caused from circum stances which he could not reveal) he should so far forget himself as to commit a breach of the peace. Verdict—Guilty. The COURT allowed the defendant to settle the matter with the prosecutor. This was the only case of assault for trial. Several parish appeals were then disposed of, after which Mr. ALLEY applied for the sanction of the Magi strates, to a transfer of the license of the Greyhound public-house, West Smithfield, to Mr. John Bate. The petition on which he moved stated, that the petitioner in March last took .the house, and a.cer tain day was appointed by Mr. Blackett, one of the Common Council, to assign over the transfer of the license, but when he applied for that purpose, it was refused on the alleged ground that the house was not conducted in a proper manner, being frequented by disorderly persons. This the petitioner posi t►vely denied, and said, that only on one single occa sion had there been the least disturbance, and that was of a trifling character. The petitioner then stated that l►e had expended a large sum of money on the house, and if the license was withheld, it would subject himself and family to total ruin. The RECORDER said his application could not be made at the present Sessions; according to the new Act, the application must be made at a special Ses sions, held for the purpose of renewing licenses. Mr. ALLEY said it was an extremely hard case; but after consulting the Act, could not press his application. The RECORDER—The 13th of March is the re gular licensing day, when the application may be re newed. We do not give any decision on the charge of misconduct; it is not en that ground that we re fuse the application. - - THE• MARKETS.-(THIS DAY.) CORN EXCIIANGE. There are few arrivals this week of any kind of Grain except English Oats, of which the quantity is again good. The Wheat trade remains extremely dull, and prices, though reported the same as on Monday, are almost no minal. It is only the finest parcels of Barley that meet any freedom in sale, all other sorts ate very heavy in dis posal. Beans and Pease meet very little demand. Oats are so plentiful that there appears very little prospect of making progress in sake, unless at still lower prices. The Flour trade is almost in a complete state of stagnation. ARRIVALS. I Wheat.

Mr. Aglionby addressed the freemen in a long and an mated speech, in which he dwelt with much force on tl system of bribery and corruption resorted to on the other side, and highly complimented the freemen for the spirit, zeal, and independence they had shown, as well as for their peaceable conduct.

ROSSINI'S opera of L'ltaliuna in Algieri was last night reproduced here in a style, as regards dress, scenery, and decorations, highly creditable to the present management. The Plot of this piece is well known, and relates chiefly to the intrigues of a fascinating Italian to win the goo graces of her Moslem lord and master, and thus effect her own liberation and that of her lover aml her friends. Madame RtsAitoNt was this fair Italian, and but that her face and figure forbids its to cherish any very tender or romantic illusions, gave us every season tit be satisfied with her performance. Her duet with Tuddeo, cc Ai capricci della sorte," was sung with infinite ease and sweetness ; but her greatest effort was decidedly in the execution of " Pensa alla patria," which brought down im mense 41se. Signor VINCENZO GALLI, younger bro ther of the well-known bass singer of that name, performed Mustapha, and cannot but be regarded as an acquisition to the theatre. DONZELLI'S Lindeor was excellent, and his cavatina " Langnir per una bella," was the most "success ful hit of the evening. The house was well attended, though not crowded. GRAND CONCERT AT DONCASTER, On Thursday, a Grand Concert of Vocal and Instru mental Music, upon an extensive scale, was given in the Doncaster Betting Booms, to a numerous assemblage of fashionables. The musical pieces were chiefly selected from the productions of MozART, and those of the most celebrated Composers. An admirable orchestra was fitted up for the occasion, and filled with upwards of fifty of the principal musicians from the towns of Manchester, Shef field, and Nottingham, and led by the eminent George Ware, late of the King's Theatre, to whose masterly ma nagement of the DerFrieshutcz music, when leader of the English Opera ; that piece in no small degree is indebted for its celebrity. The Band played the various pieces with infinite taste and precision, and the Glee singers acquitted themselves respectably. Mr. NrcztoLsosf, of the King's Theatre, performed a Fantasia on the flute with remarkable facility of execution and sweetness. Mrs. ATKINSON (late Miss Goodhall) from the Nobility's Concerts, sang with sweetness, energy, and com pass. In Front Mighty Kings she displayed excellent taste and science, and was loudly applauded. Mr. WARE asttnished the audience by giving a specimen of his won derful power upon the violin, in his Harmonious Solo, which drew forth the unanimous plaudits of the assembly, who appeared to marvel much that so diminutive an in strument could give birth to such a combination of harmo nious strains. Mr. BENNETT sang Hurrah for the Bon nets of Blue! in good style. lie has a full voice, similar in its flexibility to Wood's, but lacks science in the manage ment of it. A Concerto on the piano -forte by Mr. WAKE LEY, a gentleman deprived of the blessing of sight, was de servedly applauded. The Chough and crow (glee), by Mrs. ATKINSON, Mr. WAKELEY, and Mr. BENNETT, was sang- with good effect, and the concert passed off with much eclat. PARLIAMENTARY PAPER. THE REVENUE.

STATE OF TRADE.—The canzils•being again open, there have been -a considerable number of Lon don and other buyers in the-:goods market this week, and more business has consequently been done, though without any advance in prices. There is also an im proved demand for yarns, and for water twist somewhat better prices have, in some instances, been obtained. No very considerable rise in the value either of goods or yarns is, we conceive, to be expected ; though some improve. anent, particularly in demand, it is probable, will occur pretty immediately..2llanehester Mercury. The salute fired from the heights and castle of Dover, on :Saturday last, in honour of the arrival of the Duke of Cumberland, shook to the foundation the house of a baker in that town. It now presents a most warming appearance, and must of course be taken down. It is said that the baker is a Catholic. While seine men were quarrying stones on Monday last, in the glen of Gargunnock, they found an acorn iu th , ! solid rock, entire, full 20 feet below the surface, and :5 feet from the spot they commenced digging.— Edidiutyli Evening Courant.: BRIBERY.---Money has been, we pledge ourselves, sent over to London by the Brunswick Club, to endeavour to bribe the liberal portion of the Loudon Press. —Dublin Morning Register.— Llf this be true that portion of the Press should be named.—ED. sun.] SPORTING INTELLMENCR.
