PARIS, APRICI2.—It is said there will shortly be published a collection of the znandements, circulars, proclimation4, &c. &c. which were sent at the moment of the late election.

The following is one of them,—the circular of the Prefect of the Department of Lot ct.Qarorme, addressed to the (..4:A.n.ls " "Igen : Feb. 17, 1824 " Sir, you know all the electors of your parish, and the sacred ..,office which you hold necessarily gives you a great influence. The interest of the altar and the;throne demands that no one , olthe electors who you know to profess Royalist principles, Should fail to repair to Agen, on the 25th of this month, to vote at the elections. Have the goodness to wait on each, .and tell them all, that the absence of any one may give a triumph ,to the liberals, ti at the consequence of a bad clioice will lie von them, and that they will be responsible far this before God ,and men. It would be well, M. le Von., if you were to:conduct your electors in person to the College, and never lose sight of them till they had voted for the President of the College.

LEGISLATIVE COUNCIL. 'This day, at.three o'clock, his Excellency the Governor in Chief came down in State to the Legislative Coun cil Chamber, and being seated on the throne, the Gentleman Usher of the Black Rod was sent to command the presence of the assembly, which being come up, his Excellency was pleased to give the Royal Assent to the several • his Excellency then addressed botb_llouses in the following speech : " Gentlemen of the Legislatiz;‘ Council, " Gentlemen of the House of Assembly, " I am now to close a Scsbion of the Parliament the result of which, I atn much afraid, will prove to be of little public ad vantage ; at the same time, your long and laborious attendance is entitled to.my best thanks ; but before I prorogue this Par lisment,l think it important to the country, that I should here, as his Majesty's representative, express my sentiments upon the general result of your proceedings, during the several Ses sions in which I have met you. I declare those sentiments in :an earnest desire to attract the serious attention of every mem_ ;her of this Parliament, of every man who values the prosperity 1 of Canada ; and I trust I know too well the principles of the British Constitution to express myself in any manner incon, sistent with that respect which one branch of the Legislatures owes to another, or with those rights and privileges which be long -to each respectively. - ":4.-claim has been made to an unlimited right zin c-ne branch of the Legislature to appropriate the whole - revenue of the province, according to its pleasure, including not only that part of ititeretofore granted to his Majesty, and which is - ap propriated by acts of the Provincial Parliament to specific pur poses,and subject to such distribution as the King may see fit, bet even that portion also of the revenue which is raised by the authority of the Imperial Parliament, appropriated to de fray the expences of the administration of justice, *sad of his Majesty's Civil Government in this Province, and directed by :an Act passed in the British Parliament long before the esta blishment of the present Constitution in this Province, to be so applied, under the authority of the Lords Commissioner s of his Majesty's Treasury : this claim made by one, has been formally denied by the other two branches of the Provincial Parliament ; nevertheless it has been persisted in, and recourse has been had to the unusual proceeding of withholding the supplies, except upon conditions which wo u ld amoun t t o an acknowledgment of its constitutional validity. " This subject has occupied every Session from the first to the last, and is now transmitted to those which shalfollow. 1t has caused incalculable mischief to the province.; and now leaves it to struggle under difficulties, while every inhabitant of it must see that the encouraging aid of the - legislature is alone wanting to arouse powerful exertion, and draw forth those resources which, without that aid, must in a great mea. sure lie dormant and useless within its reach. But, Gentle men, I see with infinite satisfaction, that notwithstanding these , unfavourable circumstances, Canada is powerfully advancing in improvement, and that the differences which continue to dis turb its legislature have not interrupted in the smallest degree , that general contentment which the people enjoy under the pa ternal care and protection of his Majesty. " N former years, when the supplies necessary for the sup port of his Majesty's Government and the honour of the Crown in this Province, were not granted, I averted the unhappy con. sequences which mast have resulted from a strict adherence to the letter of the law, and I / trust, that-my conduct on theocca .sion will be justified and approved where alone I am respon sible ; but as my advice has been unaviling to prevent this re sult at the present period, I shall interfere no further. Adher ing now to the letter of the law, I shall guide the measures of the Executive Government by that rule, and according to my best judgment; lamenting that the public must feel those con sequences whicli have so lung impended over it, and which I can no longer avert. " Gentlemen of the Legislative-Council, " I feel myself called upon to acknowledge the calm, firm, And dignified character of your deliberations and conduct in the 'discussion of the public business ; and I take it upon me in a .sense of duty to thank you in his Ma j esty's name for the sup port you , have uniformly given to the measures I have from time to tuna recommended to you for the good of the province. " I-fervently pray that the wisdom of your proceedings may make a just impression upon the loyal inhabitants of the pro vince, and lead them to that temperate and conciliating dispo sition, which is always best calculated to give energy to public spirit, to promote public harmony, and ensure public happi liess ; these are the great advantages which result front a wise' exercise of the powers and privileges of Parliament." PART.] A ME NT, HOUSE OF' LORDS, Aram 15. ROYAL ASSENT. The Loir , CHANCELLOR, Earl StrArTicsntritr, and Vis. count MELV rLLE, as his ilitaiestv's Commissioners, brought down the Royal Assent to the Irish Burials Bill, the Barrack Department Property Bill, the Dublin Oil Gas Company Bill; and a considerable. number of Private Bills. Mr. LANuToN and others brought up from the Commons the Assay Masters' Bill and a Private Bill, which were read a first time. ARCHBISHOP OF DUBLIN. The Bishop of LIM EItICK rose just as their Lordships were on the point of adjourning, and observed that he had re ceived a letter from -- the Archbishop of Dublin (Dr. Magee), who wished him to inform the House Of its contents, as this not being his Grace's year for Parliamentary attendance,. he (Dr. Magee) could not have an opportunity of vindicating his con duct in that House. So long am those unfounded charges had been confined to Pamphlets, Newspapers, and Handbills, no notice had been taken of, them; but as the subject Lad been brought before Parliament in the shape of a petition from cer tain individuals, in'which the conduct of his Grace the Arch bishop of Dublin, in relation to burials, had been most unjustly complained of, it was in consequence of these misrepresenta-• tions that his Grace the Archbishop of Dublin had requested him (the Bishop of Limerick) t o lay the contents of the letter, s e which h e h e ld i n hi s hand, befor e t h e !l ouse .—(Th e Ri g h t R ev. P ta rela d te te thatjire ea Magee, in which his Grace m ag a i ns t hi m were u tt er ly w i t h out foundation.)—The Limerick proceeded to comment the r charges the letter made terf from on the letter, anti the high character which the Archbishop of Dublin preserved both in public and private life; He had him self seen in the streets- of Dublin the most libellous placards posted in different parts of that•eit- , , y and had had handbills and pamphlets thrust into his bands .in the course of his walks, and even at the very gate of the University, which contained the most gross falsehoods; one pamphlet in particular, which pre '-tended to give a life of his Grace, was a most vile and libel lous publication, It was known to every one that had the plea- sure. of being acquainted with his Grace, that from his ear liest years his conduct in private life had kept pace with his superior professional . abilities : as a - son, he had shewn the tenderest attachment to his par en t s; as a brother be was the kindest of friends ; and as a friend. himself, his attach ment was unchangeabl2.. As a controversial writer, one of the profoundest of the age, his Grace was entirely free from that odium theolvieum which had been so invidious ly charged. on ecclesiastical writers in general ; for in all con troversies he was an open and a generous adversary. Here the Right Reverend Prelate, in reference to the Bill (Irish Bu rials) recently passed, mentioned cases where Protestant Clergymen had attended the funerals of Catholic Priests, and others in which the Roman Catholic had in like manner gone to the funerals of Protestant Ministers. In-one instance which occurred in the City of Limerick, the greater part of the shops were closed in consequence of the funeral of a Protestant Clergyma ; and he was happy.-to say that the people of Ire land in general were not so unfriendly to the Established Church as some persons had 'represented. The recent Bill would leave them in the same -friendly state ; and as for him self, though humble the station he filled, he should feet must happy to cultivate the good will of both religions by all com mendable nicans in hispower._ EASTER RECESS. The Earl of SHAFTESBURY now moved their Lordships to adjourn to Wednesday the 28th of April ; and the House in consequence then adjourned to that day. HOUSE OF COMMONS. The House was summoned by Commission, in the usual form, to hear the Royal Assent given to several Bills ; for the titles of which see the Lords' Report. S:leral accounts and other Papers were presented from dif ferent Public Offices, and ordered to lie on the table, and be printed. ST. CATHERINE'S DOCK. Mr. GRENFELL moved the addition of certain Members to the Committee on the St. Catharine's Dock Bill. The lion. Member took occasion to olosprve, that many misrepresenta tions had gone forward as to the number of inhabitants likely to be affected by this Bill ; 10,000 -were mentioned, but in fact there were but 4,000 in the parish.. The number of houses too were mentioned at 1,400, but there were not more than 600. This was an exaggeration caused by rival Dock Companies. e t mondsey and The other objection, as to the want of notices, was of no weight, as the houses in question would be rendered more valuable by the alteration mr. 1 u 3i E proposed. presented —The motion a pti.n o r as nagreedt rn o neighbouring places awmilnut time St. Catherine's Dock Bill.— Iteferroi.l to time Committee on the Bill.

Dr. PIIILLIMORE brought in a bill to • legalize Catholic Marriages.—Read a first time, avid ordered for a second read ing on the 3d of May. Lord A. HAMILTON moved 'for several returns . relative to the amount of the Fee Fund of the Court of Session in Scot land.—Ordered. _ _ _ IRISH CATHOLICS. Mr. S. RICE presented a Petition from the Roman Catholics of Drogheda, numerously signed, complaining of the practice which prevailed in that part of the country of excluding Catho lics from serving on Grand Juries and other public offices, although their property and numbers compared with those of Protestants was m the proportion of nine to one; and although they were rendered eligible for the offices in question by an Act passed in the year 1793, they prayed fur a revision of the whole of the laws relating to Catholics. . . _ Sir J. NF.IWPORT supported the petition. It was pecu liarly galling for the Catholic's to find that they were marked out for exclusion, even in cases wherein they were legally qua lified for office. Mr. HUME also spoke in favour of the petition. Catholics in some cases were not allowed even to bid at the sales of public property. The petition was ordered to lie on the table. COUNTY GAOLS. Mr. COURTENAY brought up the Report on the County Gaols Bill.—Read, and ordered for consideration on the 3d of May. COMBINATION LAWS.

Mr. BUTTERWORTH presented a petition from Doncas ter against Cruelty to Animals ; a nd a n o th er f rom sev e ra l Poulterers and Fishmongers of Westminster, against the Pro fanation of the Sabbath. 'Ate particularly complained of the sale of mackarel on Sunday—(laughter) ---observing that this was a fish which would keep as well as any other.__( Loud laughter.)—The petitioners observed that they were forced to violate the Sabbath, and deny rest to their workpeople from a fear of disobliging their customers; and they therefore prayed the Hotise that a law might be passed prohibiting the sale of the coramodies in which they dealt, on Sundays. Mr. HUME thought it strange for these Petitioners to apply to the House. They might meet if they pleased, and agree not to serve on Sundays.—(Hear, hear !)—"We had penal statutes enough ; and there was no occasion for any additional ones.— We had passed laws to prevent the sale of game : and it was notorious that these laws were openly violated. He hoped the Honourable Member would call ,a meeting of the Peti tioners, and state to them that if their scruples were sincere,. they might easily agree amCmg themselves not to profane the Sabbath. For his own part, if le were a dealer in these arti cles, and felt the scruples they professed, he could easily for bear dealing on the Sanday,•witbout applying to Parliament fur assistance. Sir M. W. RIDLEY said the Petition was of a most ab surd, ridiculous, and canting nature.—( 1 1 ear, hear !)—lle hoped that the names of the Petitioners would be printed, in order that their customers and the public might gratify their scruples, and take care not to deal with them on the Sabbath, but with others who had no such scruples.—(Cheers and laughter.) _ _ Sir T. BARING supported the Petition, and thought it was necessary, for sound morality, to shut up our shops on Sundays. Mr. Alderman SMITH said we ought, at altevents, not to prevent the Jews selling fish on Sundays.—(A laugh.) The Petition was read, and ordered to lie on the table ; and after a few words from Mr. BUTTERWORTH, was ordered to be printed. REDEMPTION OF STOCK. Mr. ELLICE moved for several Accounts relative to the Redemption of Stock by the Commissioners of the Public Debt, and other public Offices.—Ordered. ADJOURNMENT OF THF. HOUSE. Mr. CANNING moved, that the House on its rising do ad journ to Monday, • the 3d of May. The usual period of ad_ journment at this season of tne year was a fortnight ; and his reason for prolonging .it on this occasion was, that if it were to meet on this day fortnight, this year, it could do nothing more than adjourn-over to the Monday following-, in consequence of a solemnity occurring on that day, at which it was usual that the Members of both Houses should attend. Ile had the less regret in making this proposition, on account of the forward state in which the p u bli c b usiness was at present.—Motion granted.; . . • RUM DUTIES BILL. On the motion of the CHANCELLOR of the EXCHE QUER, the House resolved itself into a Committee on the Runt Duties Bill. In the Committee, a conversation took place between the CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER, Mr. ELLICE, Mr. It. ECUs, Alderman BRIDGES, Mr. BRIGHT, and Mr. T. Mr. BRIGHT asked when the remission of Is. lid. pergal lon of the duty on rum would take place ? The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER answered, from and after the passing of the Act. The HouSe then resumed, and the report was ordered to be received on the 3d of May. The British Museum Bill went through a Committee.—Re port on the 3d of May., The' Beer Bill went through a Committee.—Report on the 7th of May. • • The Sugar Bounties Bill went through a Committee.—Re port on the 3d of May.
