BROWNE and CART WRIGHT, Surgeon- Dentists, 21, Fleet-street, beg to call public attention to their new and beautiful EVERLASTING TEETH, the most clean and wholesome that can be worn. They are so exactly formed to nature, both in shape and colour, that the closest observer cannot detect the difference, with this advantage—they never change colour, decay, or wear out ; and a complete set, on fine gold, for which they will only charge 15 to 18 guineas, will last for 20 years or upwards, and are far superior to those usually charged 30 or 40 guineas ; a single tooth, one guinea ; three ditto, two guineas and a half. Natural teeth supplied from 51. per set, or 10s. per tooth. Messrs. Browne and Cartwright's method of fitting neither requires the extraction of stumps nor gives the slightest pain ; and having had upwards of 20 years' experience in the profession, can guarantee to restore perfect mastication and articulation, having succeeded in thousands of cases, in hundreds of which other dentists had entirely failed. The above are totally different from the brittle glossy French teeth, usually supplied by dentists as newly-discovered mineral &c. A visit will convince the most sceptical of the fact. PUBLICATIONS.

The Work which is now presented to the public is the result of very extended experience in a class of diseases and affec tioi.s, which for some unaccountable reason have been either altogether overlooked, or treated with apathy, and almost in difference, by the ei dinary practitioner. To enter into the details of these affections, to point out their causes, and to mark the terrific consequences, social, moral, and physical, which are sure to follow from indulgence, in certain habits, would be entirely out of place in an advertisement. We have no hesitation, however, in saying that there is no member of society, by whom the book will not be found interesting, whe ther we consider such person to hold the relation of a PA RENT, a PRECEPTOR, or a CLERGYMAN. - - Messrs.

BRISTOL SUGAR MARKET, FEB. 19.—The sugar market is heavy and prices are declining. Our market is, in fact, in a most anomalous state, subject to the caprice of any large and respectable dealer from other ports, who may amuse himself with speculative experi mettt,, sometimes at the expense of the merchant, some. times of the dealer. Under this no very pleasant discipline, our sugars are sometimes bought up, and we are reduced to the greatest straits for a sup ply ;at others the market is glutted. These are the natural consequences of the system of monopoly which has been so long establithed, and of the scarcely creditable manceuvrcs retorted to in the trade, and which have rendered our market the fluctuating sport of any long head and heavy purse that may cume to measure strangth with the buyers or milers. At the present moment our offices are filled with samples from London and Liverpool, kindly sent to supply the deficiencies of the " second city in the kingdom." The immense imports into London from the East have so depressed the trade that there is not much probability of extensive business being transacted.—Bristol Mercury. , . H ER MAJESTY'S HEALTH.--Under tuts head we find the following paragraph in the journal heb domadally honoured by Court patronage. It is a lucid, a logical, and a delicate production:—" Several of the journals have announced during the past week, that her Majesty is again in that interesting state in which ' ladies wish to be who love their 1 rds.' We believe the fact to be as stated, and also that it is stated correctly. It is now nearly ten days since information of the pleasing cir cumstance was conve)ed to us from a qua r t e r on which we have always ssftly relied, and, though w e d ec li ne d t o g i ve it publicity at the time, it was not fro m an y d ou bt s o f t h e ac curacy of our intelligence that we did so, but from a certain de!icicy which precluded us f rom t ouc hi ng on suc h a topic at such a period. Th e daily press having, how ever given publicity to the fact, the reason which influ enced us on that occasien has, consequently, no longer any force ; and we now hasten, among the fore m o s t, to con . gratulate the country upon the auspicious event." It is stated for certain (s a y s a Vienna correspon dent of the FranVort Journal) that Lord Beauvale is go ing to marry Mdlle. the Countess Alexandrine von Maltzahn, eldest daughter of the Prussian Ambassador at this Court. Immediately after the nuptials, which are to take pl ac e about Easter, his Excellency and his bride will pay a vi s it to England. IMPERIAL PARLIAMENT. HOUSE OF LORDS, FRB. 22. Their Lordships met at Five o'Clock. A message from the Commons brought up the Ex chequer Court (Ireland) Bill, and tile Tithe-composi tion Bil!. Lord WHARNCLIFFE presented petitions from S,:otland for the better obset vance of the Sabbath, and a Fe!ition from the Mayor and Common Council cf the airough of Leeds for a better mode of taking votes at corporation elections. THE CASE OF LORD CARDIGAN. Lord WHARNCLIFFE then said that seeing tl at the publication of the proceedings in the recent trial of the E•irl Cardigan had been ordered by their Lord ship, he wished to ask the Noble Lord on the Wool sack (Lord Shaftesbury) whether there was any record of what had been said by the Learned Lord the Lord High Stc%;wd. The Earl of SHAFTESBURY did not know whether there was any such record. He did not think it was usual, but he would make inquiry. Lord W HARNCLIFFE thought it important that the address of the Lord High Steward to their Lordships should be published, as it would put an end to a great deal of the nonsense that was talked of on the subject. The Noble Lord then gave notice that immediately after the holidays, if the matter were not taken up by some other of their Lordships, he would bring in a Bill to clear up all doubts as to a Peer pleading his Privileve in case of con viction for felony. He thought it would be very much to the discredit of their Lordships if that matter were not cleared up, after what ba'l been said in respect to the late trial. The Marquis of NORMANBY said that a Noble Friend of his had intended to take the matter up, but would ncl, of tOurm* take '•acit of -the hands.of-the Noble Baron opposite. The Noble Marquis then laid upon the table the Report of the Hand-loom Weavers' Commission. The Bishop of LLANDAFF presented a petition from Somersetshire for the better observing the Sabbath, especially upon railways. THE CHARTISTS.—REPEAL OF THE UNION. Lord BROUGHAM presented a petition from the National Charter Association of Bloomsbury, praying for the recal of Frost, Wi liams, and Jones. Formerly in presenting a petition from the same Association for the release of persons confined for mere opinions and not acts, he had taken occasion to refer to the unfor tunate conduct pursued by her Majesty's Ministers with regard to the Repeal agitation in Ireland, but he had since 'lewd that the Government had put a sort of mark upon every person who took part in this question. He was told that a gentleman named Roche, who stood first on the list selected by the Judge for persons to fill the office of High Sheriff for the county of Pork, had been rejected on the ground that he was favourable to the repeal of the Union. He was told thst that gentleman had been asked whether, in case of his being select,:d to fill the office, he would pledge himself to abstain from giving any opinion on the sub ject. Mr. Roche refused to do so, and on that ground be was rejected. He (Lord Brougham) now wished to ask his Noble Friend (Lord Normanby) whether that statement was true or not ? The Marquis of NORMANBY had had no direct communication on the subject with his Noble Friend the Lord Lieutenant for lrelind ; but from what he had heard he had no hesitation in saying that a correspondence did take place with Mr. Roche, in consequence of which his Noble Friend (the Lord-Lieutenant) had selected for the office of Sheriff the gentleman whose name was second on the list. Lord BROUGHAM—I believe, my Lords, that no one will think that I hold different opinions on the subject of the repeal of the Union from those of my Learned Friend, or of the Lord-Lieu tenant of Ireland. But I must say again that I da not think this the way to expose tl.e error, or to put down the discussion of that question. I cannot see why the repeal of the Union is to be excepted from other questions, and why men should he prevented from taking part in this discussion just as much as any other, the discussion being no offence known to the law. Lord GLENGALL moved for the list of persons sent into the Lord Lieutenant to be selected for the office of Sheriff for the year 1841, with the names of those who had been select 'd. PERSIA. TLe Earl of RIPON then rose to bring for ward the motion of which he had given notice, with respeci. to the state .of our relations with Persia. He thought that the circumstances of the case justi fied him in making the motion, and be could not, when he had first given notice of jt, imagine that any pub lic inconvenience could possibly result from complyiug with it, or from his giving such notice, for had he ima gined that any inconvenience could have possibly arisen he certainly should not have given such notice. There was something peculiai, something very little under stood, with respect to our relations with Persia, and he would now draw their Lordships' attention to the manner in which those relations appeared to stand. At the opening of the Session of 1839, her Majesty, in her speech from the throne, had stated that an interruption in our friendly rela tions with the Court of Persia had taken place; and a hope was also expressed that such interruption would not be of long continuance. Soon after the com mencement of the Session a mass of papers had been laid before Parliament, for the purpose of show ing the cause of that interruption in our friendly relations, which had been alluded to in the Speech, and why our Minister at Teheran had withdrawn from that Court. It appeared that those grounds were principally connected with the conduct which had been pursued by the authorities of Persia towards a courier. There were other matters in which the two Governments were more or less implicated, but the immediate cause of difference appeared to be the circumstances attending this matter of the courier, to which he should presently direct their Lordships' atten tion. It appeared that our Minister had quitted the Court of Teheran, and hind directed those attached to the embassy to retire to Erzeroum within the Turkish territory while lie had directed Sir Henry Bethune and the military officers to proceed to the city of Bagdad. The Ambassador himself came to England. It appeared that the Shah of Persia alarmed at the prospect of the interruption of the friendly relations with this country, had sent a Minister' here to dis cuss with the British Government in this country, the matters which had been in discussion between the Persian Government and the British Minister at the Court of Teheran. Her Majesty's Government had thought it their duty to state to the Persian Goverament and to that individual that he would not be received as an envoy, unless ho were empowered to make all the concessions which Mr. M‘Nele had required of the Shah, and more es pecially in the business relating to the courier. Her Ma jesty's Government had directed her Ambassadors at the Courts of Vienna, Constantinople, apd Paris to make a communication t 3 the Persian Envoy, should they meet with him, that except those conditions were complied with he would not be received. That individual came to this country in the month of June, 1839. He was not recognised ; he managed, how ever, by some means, to penetrate the recesses of Downing-street—the same conditions were insisted on ; he had, however, some conferences with the Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs, but after a sh or t res id ence and from that here time all he communication et m r un u ic r a n t e i d on to be h t is wcoawnntheeountry, countries had ceased. He left this country on the 7th Jul y in the same year, and her Majesty, a t the termination of th e S ess i on , the Throne that fesTeheran between the s l n i i n ire c i l tri a se t ig l i n rG o et u ot t e : c de e r d tnom i t s l ean h yt e t r haan S td p t e th e he c e h dci from retnoc her confident satisfactorily adjusted. country and conti nuedhope s i a that to wou e tlh x de ist b , de i ffs b ,; u r t eeende s i ie h ys e a bn e de x t p w r e e e s e this Nothing more transpired in the course of this last Ses sion upon the subject. There were many reasons which had deterred people from pressing her Majesty's Go vernment for explanation, and from making inquiries, and he for one had been inclined to hope that at the close of the Session they would have been informed that 'all those matter: , would be satisfactorily settled. But her Majesty's speech at the termination of the Session took no notice whatever of it, and those who took an interest in the matter were driven to hope that at the commencement of the present Session that explanation would be furnished. It was with great surprise and regret he found not one single syllable, good, bad, or indifferent, was said in the Speech at the opening of the Session.—( Hear, hear.) So that for upwards of two years and a half this affair had been going on, and all the interests of British subjects in Persia, personal and commercial, all the public and political interests of this country from that period had been left to the chapter of accidents, without the support or the presence, or the authority, or the superintending vigilance of any resident efficient Minister at that Court.—(Hear, hear, hear.) That was in itself a very unfortunate circumstance as regarded any country with which we might have been on friendly and close relation, and it was par ticularly so with respect to Persia, because it had been the policy of this country for many years to cultivate the closest connection with that country. The cessa tion, for upwards of two years, of an alliance of that sort, was no light matter, more particularly when it had been accompanied with some circumstances of irritation and alienation of feeling, because, though this country might recover the connection, though it might get back into what might appear to be a state of friendallip, it was not certain that the alliance would be recovered with the same feelings, and with the same advantages. There was another circumstance that made it peculiarly unfortunate there should have exited this alienation, which was the time and eir cnmstences during which it took place, for it was con tenaporaneetis with the undertaking of gigantic opera tion beyond the Indus, upon which he would express no °pith() a then, except that it was an operation the results of which were not fully developed, and with respect to which no one would venture to pronounce when they were developed, whether they were for the benefit or the detriment of this country. He hoped they would prove to the advantage of this coun try, but it was clear that any interruption of our relations with Persia during the time that was going on must greatly aggravate the difficulties of the case. Besides which their Lordships would recollect that one of the many grounds on which the expedition was undertaken was to meet certain assumed dangers arising out of alleged intrigues and designs on the part of Russia. It was obscurely stated in the declaration that the allusion was obvious. The same allusion was made with respect to the conduct of Persia, and it was represented that some designs were entertained with respect to Pers'a, and the same intrigues carried on. It was true that when the Russian Government ex plained the matter to the British Government here they expres:sed themselves perfectly satisfied with that expla nati ea. There was something in the state of our rela tions with Persia which he could not understand. He really did not know whether we were at peace or war. He should think we were at war, and he would show their Lordships why he thought so. He did not mean to say that any prohibition of intercourse—that any threats held out—that any abrogation of existing treaties were war; but he thought that if they forcibly took possession of a por tion of the Persian territory, without the asset of the Persian Governmer4, and continued to hold th t ortie l a nr ma a r ait., i , it might be unjust—it might he wise, or it might be the he!ght of folly, that was nothing at all to the paint of vie .v in which he was putting it, but it was to all intents and purposes neither more nor less than an act of war. Their Lordships, then, would not wonder if' any person wished to have more specific information on this subject than ex isted, or was at least laid before their Lordships. Another thing in addition to this unintelligible state of things, was that notwithstanding Mr. M'Neile withdrew himself from the mission—notwithstanding the cess ition of intercourse, ' and that act of hostilities to which he alluded, her Ma jesty's Government appeared to him to consider the ab sence of Mr. M'Neile as an ordinary case of leave of ab sence. So they stated it when the question was asked last year: It was unaccountable to him when an Envoy was sent to this country to endeavour to restore harmony, he was not received, but sent about his business. It might be,'to be sure, that it was not worth while to attend to the matter, but in his opinion it was very inconvenient to have such a state of things, as far as the East India Company was concerned. The East India Company engaged to pay 12,0001. a year for the support of that mission, but in condition that they would not be called upon to pay unless there would be an efficient mission Sir John M'Neile was either in England or Scctland, and Colonel Sheil, a very active and excellent officer, and well calculated to transact whatever business was en trusted to him, was in Canada ; how , then, could any person say that there was an efficient mission ? He would beg for a moment their Lordships' attention to the circumstance of Sir John M'Neile's departure, and the story of the courier. Sir John M'lsleile was wrong no doubt on that occasion, however he did not bring that mat ter against him. He ( Sir John M'Neile) dtd what he thought was best to be done ; but what he complained of was, that her Majesty's Government adopted his course in the transaction to which ho was calling their Lordships' at tention. The Noble Lord here proceeded to detail all the circumstances connected with the taking of Herat, in the year 1837, by the Shah of Persia, and the ill-treat ment received by our Envoy sent to the Shah by the Prince of Herat to endeavour to prevail on him (the Shah) to cease hostilities. Some letters which the En voy had received from the British Resident were taken from him on that occasion, but were immediately returned on its being found by whom those letters were given. This act was considered by Sir John M'Neile as an insult to himself and to her Majesty's Government, and he de manded not merely a general apology and repara tion, but also reparation in a particular man ner—( Hear, hear)—and whims he could not get that particular reparation, he felt it his duty to quit the mission, and thus ended all intercourse between that nation and us. Now he contended that was not sufficient ground for breaking off that intercourse. The Persian Govern ment offered to remove, and did remove, the officer whose conduct had been at fault, and yet because they did not make the peculiar specific apology which was demanded, Sir J. M'Neile quitted their territory, and, as he had stated before, all intercourse with that nation was thus broken off. That was deeply to be deplored. There was not, he in sisted, sufficient ground for such a proceeding. He did not see that the honour of the country required that that course should be adopted, and some explanation of the circum stances to which he adverted ought, he thought, to be given to their Lordships by her Majesty's Government, the more so as that state of things was going on now for two years. The Noble Lord concluded by moving that an bumble address be presented to her Majesty, praying for the correspondence, or extracts of the correspondence, between her Majesty's Government and the Government of Persia on that subject. Viscount MELBOURNE would not take advantage of what was considered the general prudence of Parliament, and oppose the producing of the correspondence moved for, on the ground of the present state of the negotiations to which that correspondence related. The Noble Lord who had last addressed the House, had fairly stated all the circumstances relating to the transactions which were now under discussion. The Noble Lord seemed to state that Sir John M'Neile had acted wrongly, and that the Go vernment had also acted wrongly in supporting him. When their Lordships would read the whole of the documents relative to that affair, they would see that it was a studied insult offered to her Majesty's Ambassador, which it was impossible to pass over with less notice than had been taken of it. His Noble Friend the Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs saw the Ambassador sent by the Shah of Persia, but he did not see him in his official character ; he saw him in private, and in that private interview grounds were laid for'an accommodation of the differences in ques tion, and in fact they have been, in a great degree, settled. But we have secured Herat, which we did in consequence of that expedition, and which was the real ground of dif ference between this country and Persia. The expedi tion which the Shah had undertaken against this great important station and fortress of Herat, that was the real ground of difference. His Noble Friend had stated, that in the original conflict between the Shah of Perai a and the Shah of Herat, it was admitted the Shah of Persia was in the right. On some matters it was undoubtedly admitted that he was. It was admitted that the Prince of Herat had committed aggressions on the Persian territory —that he had made slaves of Persian subjects, and bad committed other aggressions, and therefore the Shah of Persia demanded satisfaction of the Shah of Herat. Un doubtedly the Shah of Persia had a ground for that demand of satisfaction, but it was never admitted by any man that the Shah of Persia had a claim to the sovereignty of Herat, and therefore it was of the highest importance to our Indian territory to maintain the independence of Herat. There. fore when the Shah of Herat offered as he did satisfaction to the sbali of Persia, for the aggressions which he had committed, it was then stated most clearly and distinctly, that the justice of the war had ceased, and Sir John M'Neile did distinctly state to the Shah of Persia, that if he persevered with the siege of Herat, it would be war with England, and upon that ground it was that the Shah of Persia abandoned that siege of Herat, and retired from it. But the state of the case at present was, that, upon all the minor subjects of difference—with respect to the courier, and so on—ample satisfaction had been afforded, and there was only one point which remained un settled between the two countries, and which pre vented the establishment of a diplomatic in tercourse, and our sending out an Ambassador. That remaining point of difference between the two coml. tries was that relating to the fortress of Gourcal—that was a fortress belonging to Herat. It was most important to Herat as a military station, and also most important in a financial point of view. The Shah of Persia had said that he would restore Gourcal to the Shah of Herat ; but until the restoration should have actually taken place it had not been thought right to direct the return of our Ambassador to the Court of Teheran. We bad sent out an officer to see the restoration of that fortress—as soon as that fortress should be restored Col. Shell would proceed to Teheran, and the diplomatic relations would be restored between the two countries. No one could feel more than he did the importance of the subject, and the necessity there existed of securing peace in Central Asia. He could also state that he had every reason to hope that the Emperor of Rus sia was actuated by the same feelings as ourselves, and that his aid and assistance would be rendered in composing the diffeiences which had taken place between this country and the Shah of Persia. He had no objection to the produc tion of the papers. The motion was then agreed to. THE CANADA ORDINANCES. The Bishop of EXETER` wished to draw their Lord ships' attention to a question which he considered of im portance, as affecting their Lordship? House. It would be recollected that certain ordinances relating to Canada had been laid on their Lordships' table, on the 29th of January, and were ordered to be printed. Now, if before the lapse of thirty days from this period those documents had been laid on the table, an address were presented, praying the disallowance of any of them, such ordinance could not become law—the thirty days would elapse on Sunday, the 28th of February. Now, although those or dinances had been ordered to be printed on the 29th of January, they bad not been printed until the 26th of February. This delay was most extraordinary and on asking the Queen's printer the season for the delay, the reason given struck him as being still more extraordinary than the delay itself. It was that one of the ordinances had been sent to the Colonial-office for revision, so that their Lordships were to wait the pleasure of the Colonial office. He would put it to their Lordships whether they would have the printer ,to the bar of the House, to question him on the subject. After a few ;cords from Lord DUNCANNON, which were inaudib'e in tl.e gallery, The Bishop of EXETER said be should ask the No- PRICE sd. ble Viscount at the head of her Majesty's Government for an explina,ion before he presented the pcti ion of which he ;lad given notice fcr to-morrow. Lordships then adjourned at a Quarter past Six o'Cloelt. DOUSE OF COMMONS, FEB. 22. Tho SPRAKER took the Chair a few minutes herore Four o'Clock. The Strangers' Gallery v,a; crowded. NEW MEMBER.

TRENCH rose to put a question to the Speaker as to the regulation which made it necessary for Parliamentary papers to be posted in the House of Commons. His principal object in rising was to ask whether Members residing at a considerable distance might not be permitted to send papers instead of at tending personally ? The SPEAKER said that members were required to post the papers in the House, to prevent other per sons from availing the:nselves of a privilege which was only intended fo . .- Members. On the motion of Lord STANLEY the Liverpool Gas Bill was read a second time. The Noble Lord pre sented a petition signed by 27,000 inhabitants of thestown of Liverpool, expressing his gratification at finding the House were determined to legislate upon the sub ject of the abuses of the registration of Ireland, but the petitioners objected to the alteration of the franchise proposed by Lord Morpeth, and considered that the lowering of the qualification would lead to practices as corrupt as those which it was the object of the Noble Lord's Bill to prevent. They therefore hoped that the House would reject Lord Morpeth's Bill, and give its assent to that of the Noble Lord the MembLr for North Lancashire. Mr. F. SHAW presented petitions from Dublin and other parts of Ireland, in favour of Lord Stanley's Re gistration Bill. Major MACNAMARA presented three petitions from Clare, in favour of Lord Morpeth's Registration Bill. COLONEL STODDART. Mr. MILNE, seeing the Noble Lord, the Secretary for Foreign Affairs, in his place, would take that oppor tunity of asking him a question relative to the imprisonment of Col. Stoddart. The house would re member that last year the Noble Lord was good enough to state that Col. Stoddart had been unjustly detained at Bukhara, and that the Government would use all the means in their power to obtain reparation and the re lease of Colonel Stoddart. He would be glad to know whether these objects had been attained. Lord PALMERSTON was sorry to say that the exertions of her Majesty's Government to obtain the liberation of Colonel Stoddart had not us yet been suc cessful. Still he had hopes that they would eventually succeed in obtaining it. Colonel Stoddart bad been subjected to very severe and unjustifiable treatment during his confinement. He would not now go into the details, but he might state generally that he had reason to believe that during the time he was confined, Colonel Stoddart might have obtained his release at the intercession of the agent of a foreign power, but Colonel Stoddart not knowing that the intervention of that agent was sanctioned by his own Government very honourably and nobly declined to avail himself of that offer. He said that he was employed by the British Government, and that it was only to his own Government he would be indebted for his release. Meantime the Government was employing all the means in its power to effect his liberation. Captain HAMILTON gave notice that, on Wed nesdav, he would ask the Noble Secretary for the Co lonies' a question respecting the Assistant Poor-law Commissioners, in taking evidenc e of witnesses in private. Mr. L ABOUC HERE gave notice, that on the Bth of March he would move tha t the House resolve itself into Committee upon the Customs duties of the pro duce of the West Indies and our North American Colonies. Sir E. KNATCHBULL moved for an account o f all sums of money paid to the Poor Law Commis sioners in the years 1836, 1837, 1838, 1839, and 1840, and also an account of all suits to which the P oor -l aw Commissioners were parties, the costs incurred, and the results of such suits.—Ordered. Lord MAHON begged leave to renew a question which he formerly put to the Secretary for Foreign Aff a i rs . He wished to know wh at progress had been made in the negotiations with foreign countries respect ing an international copyright kw ? Lord PALMERSTON said that propositions bad been made to the Government of France, the United States, the Germanic Confederation, Saxony, and Prussia ; but not one of those efforts had led to al; s atisfactory result. Lord ELIOT begged to ask the Noble Lord whoa Cher be was aware of a document lately publishe , ` in a newspaper purporting to be a communicatiori from the Austrian Minister to the Diet of Switzerland,' respecting the suppression of convents in the lattes . country. Lord PALMERSTON would not undertake td pledge himself to the accuracy of any documents which might appear in a newspaper, but he had reason to bea lieve that a note had passed between the authoritiett named by the Noble Lord. REGISTRATION OF VOTERS (IRELAND) ' Lord MORPETH p resente d pet i t i ons i n f avour o. s the Bill introduced by his Lordship, and against that: brought in by Lord Stanley, from Dunderry, in the' county of Antrim; from Arderry, in the county Down ; from Balcurrv, in the same, and from several other places in the counties of Antrim, Down, London derry, and the greater portion of the counties in Ind inst. Lord STANLEY preserted petitions in favour of the Bill brought in by his Lordship Item places in Ire , - land, and said that he took that opportunity of statinta that one of the petitions which he then presented in favour of the Bill which be had the houour to introduce into that House was signed in conse quence of a public meeting held in the town of Bel fast about a month ago. Teat meeting was at tended by 40,000 persons convened by a requisition, signed by 1,607 individuals, which 1,607 individuals, he was instructed to state, represented the comm:reW and landed proprietary of that part of the country to the amount of one million one hundred and sixty thou sand pounds. Lord MORPETH thee moved the Order of the Day for the second reading of the Registration of Voters (Ireland) Mr. Sergeant JACKSON said he would defer a question to the Attorsicy-General for Ireland, of which he had given notice, until tomorrow. Lord STANLEY then rose ansi said—Sir, if the objections which we on this side of the House e..testeio to the 1311 which has been introduced by the Noble Lord the Secretary for Ireland, were confined to matters of risme detail, if agreeing in the main ob. jest; to be sought for, and in ti e principles with which these objects were to be feliowed, we differed al to the machinery by which those principles ss ere to be carrietl into effect, or the subordinate provisions by which theA, were accompanied, Ii should_ on my Own part, however wide the difference letwleen us, or however importanie the points on which we differed, have been well content to have given to the 1111 of the Noble Lord a more fair consir!eration than was given to my 811 last Sess'on, and, reserving all discussions for a subsequent stage of the proceedings, have offered no opposition to the second reading of the Bid, bat have reserved the opposition which I felt it my duty to make, and to have discusser! seriatim and tem perately the different amendments I fols disposed. to suggest in Curninirtee.—(Cries of " hear, hear.") But the course the Noble Lord has pursued ha; ren dered it impossible for those who feel with rne, and I should have thought would Lase rendered it impossible for many of those who habitually act with the Noble Lord—(Hear, hear, on the Opposition benches)-- to assent to the second reading (if a Bill which tacks to the Registration—a subject important enough in itself—which tacks t) that, by way of .postscript, a subject of infinitely more importance than even the system of registration, which tends to alter the whole principles on which the representative system of these countries was based so lately as the year 1532—(Op position cheers)—which does not aim at any slight modification or alteration in the machinery of the Reform 1311, but which, with regard to Ireland, and Ireland alone, of all parts of the empire, applies a principle altogether new, at variance with that which we have applied to ether portions of this great empire.—( Hear, hear.) Sir, with regard to the details of the Registration Bill, the points on which the N °Lie Lord and inytelf differ, I mean the material points, are not very numerous. They are of more or less importance ; but 1 see with ss tisfaction that though there is still a considerable difference between us, the Noble Lord in his Bill of this year has approxi mated in no inconsiderable degree to those principles which I introduced last year, and which were made the subject of so much vituperation against me on the other side of the House.. Sir, in the course of last year the leading objection taken by the Right Hon. Gentle man, the then Solicitor-General for Ireland, was stated by him to be, that he frankly and plainly objected to an amended revision at all. The Noble Lord, however, has consented, in the course of this year, to introduce an annual revision of voters ; but, at the same time, the Noble Lord has coupled with that annual revision, which I propose to associate with an annual registration. The Noble Lord proposes to couple that an nu:l revision, considerably restricted also, with it provision not her an annual but for a quarterly re gistration. Tne Nolle Lord thus, instead of applying the system pursued in England and Scotland to Ire land, while he allows the annual opportunity of purging the register of claimants who may have ceased to have any right of vote, keeps up a quarterly machinery of registration, and renders it impossible that any per fect registration as a test and criterion of votes should exist from year to year, mixing up the business of the registry in a most inconvenient manner with the or dinary business of the Quarter Sessions in Ireland,— (Hear, hear,)—and by the introduction of perpetual' notices of cheats and notices of objections, and attain:l.i once to substantiate claims, and attendance to substan tial objections, in point of fact makes the whole year, from the commencement to the end, one continued scene of registration and election, leaving no single month, and hardly a single week, of breathing time from Session to Session, keeping the whole country perpetually engaged in election conflicts and disputes. The Noble Lord has consented to annual revision, but he has clogged it with restrictions which will open It wide door for fraudulent and fictitious voters. Because the Noble Lord tells you he will admit annual re vision, yet if a voter shall at any time, or under any circumstances, succeed in getting his name placed on the registry, it shall not be sufficient for the registrer to show that he has no qualification at all, but he is bound to prove that the man had that qualification when he was placed on the registry, but circumstances had taken place since by which he had lost it. The consequence therefore is this, to give a per• petual immunity to fraud,where a party has had his name once placed upon the registry.—(Great cheering.) Now I proposed last year that an appeal should be given as against the claimant who might be admitted, and also as against the claimants who might be re jected. But this was decreed a great hardship. It want' said it was inconsistent with the franchise, and that it was throwing obstacles in the way of the political` rights of parties ; and yet notwithstanding all this, its the present year that principle has been adopted, for by the Bill of the Noble Lord an appeal will lib, to the Appellant Tribunal in favour of the admisd sion to the franchise, as well as against it. The appellant tribunal which the Noble Lord proposes, dif fers, however, from that which I have suggested. confided in the Judges of the land, but the Noble Lord thinks itexpedient to take the power away from the Judges and give it to three Barristers of the Irish Bar, whose de• cision is to be checked only by the Speaker of this House. Now, Sir, the great respect which I bear for your per sonal character, and the manner in which you have per formed your duties—(Great cheering)—in the situa tion to which you were elected by the votes on one side of the House, but in nhich you have suc ceeded by your diguifi-d conduct in gaining thin esteem of both sides of the House, impose upon me the duty, if possible, of taking away from you that arduous duty.—(Great cheers.) The more I think upon this subject, the more strong are the objections which I entertain to impose upon you a duty which almost subjects you to misconstruction, misapprehension, and suspicion of the feelings of parties, because however impartially you may act, you will he subject to . that species of suspicion which 1 should be most a very lling t o. in iNhwhi chy.ouir a b proposed (liir;il great objection seas taken to the provision_ of which I os " last year station suggested the introduction, wit h re g ard to the costs to be given by the appellate tribunal, as well against the person seeking to substantiate as against , person seeking to overthrow so much the of objection rtliryos fraTerlrtn wasbsioe.

Sir, I believe tie Right Honourable and Learned Gentleman is not in his eslace.—( Hear, hear, from the Ministerial Benches.) Well, thee, I hope the Right Hon. Gentleman has turned his attention to the two c,lauses upon that subject in tine Bill of the Noble Lord the Secretary for Ireland, because if he has, ho will find that whereas in the appellate tribunal I re stricted the costs to the amount of ten pounds, whereas I restricted it to tire amount of costs which tile party might actually have incur red, whereas I imposed tire obligation upon the Judges only to gise costs where the petition should manifestly appear to hove been of a frivolous character— the Bil! of the Noble Lord follows up this year the same principle which last yeti- he so much repudiated— (Lnughter from the Oppositions benches)—he adopts my practice of giving costs to the respondent against tire appellant, whether that appellant be the claimant of the franchise, or the successful objector to the franchise ; but he removes all those restrictions as to amount which I bad i m posed upon the granting of costs by an appellants tribunal, a nd the Noble Lord, after specifying iu the 60th clause that tho Assistant-Barrister '''.Q.in.. 1.1115 7,VU LC.
