A T this critical Season, whin Children are Teething, they suffer more pain than at any time in the year, very few escaping Convulsioni, it is particularly re_ quested of every Mother and Nurse that has young Children n(lt to be without the AMERICAN SOOTHING SY RUP in the nurse; y, as it gives immediate relief. Mrs. I UN SON, teeling for the root . , at a 'time like this, when so many ere out of employ, and bread so very dear, and wishing to relieve those dear little sufferers, has given them A real Christmas-box; by extending her ,charity one hour longer, that is to say, from nine to eleven every Tuesday and Satuiday morning until next March, and then as usual (while the days are so very short, and hundreds live at a great dis tance, cannot get their children at lier house in time), they must bring a letter from a respectable house-keeper that they are real objects of charity. Mrs. I. hopes .at the same time so great a charity will nut be abused, as it is entirely out of her own private purse, and trusts that persons who can a fti,rd to purchase the Syrup will not injure the poor, by obyining what is intended fur their relict.

EL 1 P E 1 . ),1 1.1!1, E 217 HOUSE OF PEERS. FRIDAY, JANUARY 31. The LORD CHANCELLOR took his seat on the Woolsack about four o'clock, and, after Prayers were read, some routine business was disposed 01. An adjournment during pleasure then took place. About five o'clock the House resumed, when the two Exchequer Bills Bills were read a second time. • The Sngar Importation, and the :Malt Duty Bills, were read a third time, And passed. The Royal Household Bill was brought up from the Commons by Mr. LLISHINGTON and other Mem berl, vnd read a first time. The Earl of LIVERPOOL, on the Bill being read a first time, moved " That the Bill be printed," and acquainted their Lordships with his intention to move the second reading of the Bill on Tuesday next. Mr. LUSHINGTON also presented the Household Officers' Bill, which was read a first time and or dered to be printed. Some accounts were ordered, on the motion of the. Earl of LAUDERDALE, but from the irregularity that prevailed below the Bar, which space was un commonly cr , wded, we could not learn the purport with sufficient col reetness. CATHOLICS OF IRELAND. The order tor summoning their Lordships, being. read, Earl Ferzwt Weer rose for the purpose of bring ing forward the motion, of which tepeated weice had been given by his Noble Friend (ford Gren ville).—A considerable portion of the Noble. Earl's. seeecit, particularly the introductory part, was de livered in a low and rather faint voice, which pre eluded distiria audibility. He had come for and in order to bring under the consideration of their Lord. ships, one of the most important subjects, in all its views and beatings, which could possibly call for the attention of the Imperial . -Parliament. But though momentous and important as the subjett was at the time the notice was firat given, gteatly as it pressed upon the eat ly and anxious attention of the British Senate, yet he certainly little thought that its peculiar importance, and the-necessity of a speedy • investigation, would, be incalculably increased by the view and consideratieps of circumstances of recent occurrence, which were, lie believed, unprecedent ed in the annals of the country. The events and circumstances to which he alluded, he could not have entertained an idea of, when he first proposed their Lordships being - called together for the objetis he had in view. The proceedings to which he ad verted, went to shake the founiations of these great, bulwarks of civil liberty; nay, to endanger the per sonal safety of the subject ; and, he believed, he may venture to challenge the House to produce. any instance of the kind in the judicial history of the country, for the last century ; - they-militated against the very principles by which the liberty of the sub jett was upheld. These proceedings rendered it more imperatively incnmbent on their Lordships to.censider the general subjeel, of which such pro ceedings.had now become a very proMinent and im portant part ; not only with a view to the security of the undoubted rights of those who were most im mediately liable to be - atreated but with a view to the point (hough occurring on the other side cif the water), in the light of precedent and example.— That House, particularly, could not not be too feelingly alive or too vigilant on such an occasiun, as the rights, the liberties, and the personal safety of their fellow-subject at large, were implicated in the consideration. The rightsof the people, wit h resped to the purity of the trial by jury, he regarded as the palladium of the public safety. The most anxious and jealous care should be taken to provide. for and assert the due and upright administration of that most important branch of our judicial - system. But a more regular opportunity would arrive for a de-_ jailed discussion of this part of the subject ; • for it was one which must be considered; arid, he trust ed, when that day should-arrive, Parliament would mark its strong and decisive sense of such proceed ings. The subjeal to which he had more regularly and directly to call their Lordships' attention, was one which involved the general state of Ireland; and on that general ground he had •framed the pro position he should haVe the honour to submit. An investigation of the general state of the country, would best skew the real grounds that existed for the loud and repeated complaints of grievance to which their attention would be called; they would find that a most serious " difference," at least he may be allowed to call it, existed between the Govern ment and the people. By'the word people, he was far from mewling. exclusively the mass of the popu lation, but the great body of the proprietors, and men of consideration in the country ; and such a state of things he must say existed in that country. If not the original, at least the most prevalent cause of this state of things was, as had been often and frequently urged before, the deprivation of their undoubted rights ; and until such .an alarming and oppressive grievance should be redressed, they must naturally expeCt that the subject would again and again he_pressed upon their attention ; tor, without such redress, they could not expect either harmony of satisfaCtion that part of the empire. A great deal was eipparenCy hid at the door of religious dif ferences of opinion, but he might be allowed to say, that, in reality, and, in fad e : not one particle of re ligious consideration could be fairly ascribed to it.— This, he would venture to say, would be found the case, when they came to examine; they would find that difference in religious sentitnent had, in reality, very little to do with it. But bewotild ask, couldieny man be fairly and conscientiously kept out of his civil rights—even of the common rights of subjeets, on ac count of the religious opinions be might entertain But, he again repeated, it was no difference in reli gions-seirtithents that formed the ground; of I heeitclu.. slot] of Catholics from a due share in the representa-, tion in Pat liament, and from tho - se various other un doubted rightS of which they were deprived. It was idle to attribute ;t to the difference of opinion : for instance, will: re , iped to the do6tiine of tran substantiation, it was impossible to say, that a man could be a rcore true and loyal subjeet because he believed that, insiead of his receiving the real bcdy and blobd of Christ at ode of the sacraments, it was done only ,in Commemoration'of the Saviour. The Noble Earl here took a' short historical view of the coodu& of the Elitist) Governments to their Catho lic subjects, especiatily in the eventful reigns of Charles the Second and of William the Third. But times and circuinstancs had_ most importintly al tered since - thOse eVentftil periods—there was now no Catholic - Pretender to the Throne, nor did trOy of those various objeaions upon which formerly such stre ' s was laid, exist at present. The claims of the Irish Catholics had been seriously consider ed and attended to in the Parliament of that coun try; they . had been in part recognized, awl a certain pOition of justice afforded to them. Some of toeir rights were .restored; but many of their molt im-, portant rights were Still withheld ; the elective franchise had been. accorded, bur they were pee eluded from all share in the LeOiative power; from all situations of command n the army amt • navy. They should consider that by the wrasuro of 'Union, that part of the Empire were &statue of the superint, tiding care of their Parliaments, and theyhad dow none to look up for redress, save that arid 'rho other House of Pat liJnY t.t. Why should . our Catholic fellow-subjects alone be pi - cc:Li:LA- ft oat ion conown benefits of t,,e Con.; stioatioo o w' live? As long as such a consic.: - ablt , i,,ll3tion are kept inrsucti a state, they . might exp'cted to com plain.. His oajeri was to briog this great and im portant consideration fully and seriously to the view of Parliament.' • They would see the policy as well as the justice Of affording some, among so numerous a portion of their fellow-subjos, a chance of being admitted into the Government".. of their country. He saw no rational'difficulties Or obstacles which now obtained to the speedy' consideration of the subjett An investigation called for no less by necessity and by policy thap strict national justice. They'could never hope for a tranquil or satisfactory state of things in Ireland, until the grievances ,of - so gre.it a portion of her population were redressed ; - a conSun=rination .which more than any thing else, would tend to the happiness ! the prosperity, and the seCuritrOf - the Empire at large. The Noble Earl concluded by moving, " That a Committee be ap pointed lo inquire Into, and consider of the state of the affairs of Ireland." The Duke of DEVONSHIRE in a first, but very short though pertinent speech, seconded the mo tion. 1-leperteetly concurred in every thing that had fallen from his Noble Friend. With him he felt that that B,lbjea was ore which loudly called for -the attention of the .House, and while things were suit red to remain in their present state in Ire laud, they must expel to have irunceasiugly press ed upon their attention, Not only the justice and chara6ter, but the safety of the country, was in volved in theconsiderstioh. On the question being pot, • • The Earl of Rosss declared his opinion, that nn. thing which had fallen from the Noble Earl should induce tite House to accede to the motion. With the Noble Earl, however, he lainented fist ing state of that part of Jhe United Kingdom . ; and no person could be more happy to contribute in ex tending to every branch of his Majesty': subjects all that was desire:`, as - far as his convictions of pru dence and safety would admit. No o::e could be more ready in recommending that Parliament should - receive and attend to the petitions of the country at large. For his part, he begged leave to say, that,- attached as he was to all the people of Ireland, of whatever religious persuasion they may be, he must naturally be inclined to accede to any measure which he really thought would tend to the prosperity of that country, or the welfare and se• curity of the empire at large. At the same time,.. he must say, . that he believed the present to b.! a peculiarly improper time to accede to the motion of the Noble Eat I. The pioposition : may be regard. ed in a two.f,hi light ; first, as it went to conciliates the Catholics of Ireland ; and, secondly, with a view of casting a refiedion upon the present Go vernment of_lreland. In considering the subject, the late conduct of the Irish Catholics formed a pro minentpoint. And first, he must say, he .deemed. the Catholic Convention a proceeding ola vet) , dan gerousnature ; but a point on Which the Noble Earl laid great stress in the outset, was what was alleged to take place respe&ing a Jury, and for this he MO no foundation or authori y than vague report, or what was stated in a. newspaper. \Vas it upon such an hypothesis that august Assmnbly were called upon to go into a Committee on the affairs of Ireland ?-- Were they proceed on so slight, so hypothetical a basis ? Was there a single, document beibre theta to prove tLe..alleged faits or did aa.y 'one Parlia mentary ground exist fqr bottoMing such an aigu merit ? The Noble Earl had asserted that no tone should be lost in resorting to some measures. - But he inuscaver that he adduced no solid or substan tial ground; for such an inquiry as was desired The conduct of the Irish Government he must Lon tend, was s..clr as the exivenc;es of the crisis called for ; if, indeed, they had acted otherwise they would have betrayed a culp a bl e want o f prudence, and' a shameful pusillanimi t y. S uppose there were no other ohjedions, the cunduat , ot the •Cdtholici was such, that if the Government did not interfere as it had, they would themselves have eventually become the victims: He deetned it unnecessary to follow the Nobie Eirl over the ground he had Liken. He would not so tar trespass u pon t h e i r L ordships ' time, but woald direct their atteution to wiattlie.
