The proceedings at our assizes to-day were occupied with three points. The first was, an application to have Captain Burke put on his trial on the verdict of the Coro ner's inquest alone; notwithstanding that the hills, as I mentioned yesterday, were sent up to the Grand Jury and ignored. This point was argued at great length by coun sel at both sides, hut,in cons- quence of the record, first, not being on parchment ; 2d, the caption being in the alire viated names of the Jurors, as Edwd. for Edward, and Thos. for Thomas, and the finding of the verdict being against Captain Burke, instead of Captain John Burke, and several other Informalities, Baron Foster refused the application, and quashed the inquisition. The next paint was the trial of a man named Hill, for robbing the mai , between Goteshridge and Dublin, and stealing 401. He was found guilty; and the last was two men for an as sault, who were also found guilty. Every thing is going on w, II : the ordinary operations of Government seem to proceed without the slightest obstruction. You were never mare misinformed in London than as to the state of this county. The business of the city was despatched in two hours! and Judge Totrens was this day assisting Baron Foster i❑ the despatch of county business. I believe I told you yesterday that the pacificator, Steele, had terminated hi- mission. ASSIZE INTELLIGENCE. MIDLAND CIRCUIT.—LINcorx, ltifercri 12. DYMOKE V. GUE. This was an action of trespass brought by the Cham pion, against the defendant, a farmer in his neighbourhood, for sporting, after notice, on his manor of Serivelsby. The plaintiff sent a notice to the defendant four years ago not to trespass on his grounds, nor had the defendant done so until the present occasion, when the trespass was committed in the following way :—Having the privilege of sporting over the adjacent manor, he was out sporting on the day in question and shot a pheasant, which flew, after being wounded, across a lane, and dropped inside the fence of the Champion's wood. The defendant hallooed to his dogs to seek for the bird, and they went through a close, not in the Champion's occupation, into his wood. Tt ere was a boy watching the preserves of the plaintiff, and the defendant called out to him to observe that lie was no. going to trespass. He then laid down his gun, and leaped on the wood-bank, which was outside the fence, and, leaning over, reached the bird with his hand, and picked it up. This was the trespass complained of. A good deal of amusement was occasioned by the way in which one of the plaintiff's witnesses, a remarkably stupid youth, 19 years of age, answered the questions put to him. El spoke of the Champion invariably as " Henry Dymoke," and when Mr. Balguy called him either Mr. Dymoke, or the Champion, the witness immedi itely corrected him, by repeating Henry Dymoke." He stated in cross examination, that his master preserved his game with great strictness, and sold it. Mr. BAIGUY was satisfied that the Champion had been grossly deceived as to the facts of this case, or he never could have suffered such an action to be brought. The Learned Counsel, three several times, when he meant to speak of the Champion, used the word " Chancelior," which excited considerable merriment at the bar and on the bench. At length, when again about to make the same mistake, he suddenly checked the half-uttered word and substituted the witness's designation of " Henry Dymoke," in a tone and manner so comically like those of the witness as to convulse the Court with lau,hter. He concluded by expressing his conviction that the Champion would be obliged to the Jury fur finding a verdict fur the defendant.—(Laughter.) Verdict for the plaintiff—Damages, one farthing. The LEARNED JUDGE refused to certify that the trespass was wilful, so that each party pays his own costs. - IMMENSE LEGACY.—A Frenchman, of the name of GIRARD, who left France a sailor boy, lately died at Philadelphia, leaving a fortune of 100,000,000 of francs (four millions sterling). Among other legacies ten millions of francs (400,0001.) are left to found a college on condition that no priest of any religion shall interfere in its management. The hulk of his fortune, more than sixty millions of francs (2,400,0001.) he has bequeathed to the city of Philadelphia. It properly administered, what may not he accomplished both in works of utility and ornament.—Sketch of the United States of America, by Achille Murat. SPLENDID GIFT FROM SIR JOAN SOANE TO THE PUBLIC. Mr. HUME moved the second reading of the Bill for settling Sir John Soane's library and collections in trustees, for the benefit of the public. In moving the second reading, the Honourable Member took that opportunity of saying that it afforded an example which the House would view with great satisfaction, and he hoped they would mark their approbation of a measure which would be of so great a public benefit. --(Hear, hear.) The Bill purported to preserve for the public use, and for the benefit of the arts and sciences the whole of the valuable library and collections which had been made by Sir John Soane during many years of labour and expense, as that gentleman had been thirty years collecting them, and had arranged them in the most com plete order. He who had derived so touch from science was willing to contribute to science. He wished that trustees should be appointed in whom the property was to be invested ; and, besides that, be had determir.ed to invest the large sum of 30,000/. 3 per cents., with an additional 2001. a year, for the rent of a house to contain the collec tion. Thus proposing to maintain that institution in per fection for ever. To show the exertions which that gentleman had made, he would mention one instance. He alone had prevented Be'zoni's Sarcophagus from leaving this country, when neither the Government nor any indi• vidual was found to take it up, and had paid 2,0001. to preserve it.—(Hear, hear.) That formed part of the col lection, in which there were drawings, books of the Arts, and indeed every thing to forward the interests of science. For one single manuscript in the collection he had given no less than 5001. In short, the list that was now making out would satisfy every Hon. Member that the gift would be of incalculable advantage to the public, and he (Mr. Hume) would afford every facility in passing the Bill.—( Cheers.) Sir R. INGLIS said that the instances were so rare in which persons who were capable of estimating works of art, were found willing at the same time to confer any great public advantage similar to the present, that he re• joiced to see the present Rill. It had been correctly stated by the Hon. Member for Middlesex, that the collec tions had been made at a great sacrifice of labour and ex pense. There was no man who had for so many years as Sir John Soane devoted such a large portion of his fortune to such a desirable object. Some instances had occurred in which the possessions of collections of that kind had been made the matter of bargain and sale. But a late instance hail occurred in which an individual (whose name we regret was not audible in the gallery) had bequeathed a collection worth 60,000/. to the British Museum, and yet hardly a word had been said about it. Other gifts had been made to the National Gallery, of which it would only be just, that a formal notice should be taken. He trusted that the Hon. Member for Middlesex, or some one else, would take an opportunity of moving that the Directors of the National Gallery would be directed to make annual communications to Parliament, a hich he knew would have the effect of inducing many persons to contribute to the public collections. The Bill was then read a second time and ordered to he committed. Mr. E. DENISON moved the third reading of the Brockstowe Damage Compensation Bill. He intended tr, have called the attention of his Majesty's Ministers and the Mouse to the state of the laws as respected the liability of counties to make compensation for damage done by rioters, but as he saw none of the Ministry in their places lie would defer that till another time. The Bill was then read a third time, and passed. Mr. AIARTIN obtained leave to bring in a Bill to enable the Economic Life Assurance Company to sue •ind be sued in the name of any one of their Directors. Mr. CHAPMAN presented petitions against the Irish Coercive Bill from the parishes of Street, Multifaren, Killen, Kilrane, and other parishes in the county of 'Westmeath. AnIoN. MEMBER said, if he understood the arrange ment made last night by the Noble Lord (the Paymaster of the Forces), it was this—that when a single petition upon that subject was presented, other Hon. Members, who held petitions to the same effect, were to lay them on the table without being called upon, and that no question should be put to the House until they were all brought up. Lord ALTHORP said a few words, almost inaudibly. We understood him to corroborate what had fallen from the previous speaker. Mr. COBBE FT would only observe, that he was no party to any such understanding. He looked upon it, that he had a right to present his petitions to the House, and it was for it either to receive them or reject them, as it pleased. He had stated before, and he repeated it now, that ti . e printing of the whole of the petitions would not cost more than four thousand pounds per annum. If that pla❑ were pursued, then the present system of presenting petitions might be allowed to go on. When be presented the petitions which were in his pos session, he would move for leave to read them ; the House would decide upon that motion, and if it rejected it, then there would be an end to the right of petitioning. Lord JOHN RUSSELL said, tioe understanding the House had come to last night was this, that when petitions were presented on the subject of the Irish Bill, Arena hers with petitions with the same prayer were to present them at the same time, stating the mere prayer of the petitions ; but that no question should be put till they were all brought up, when the question that they do lie an the table should be put. Mr. COBBETT had no wish even to state the sub stance of his petitions, let them but be printed ; the ex pense was so very ttiflong, that he again repeated that was the only course that should be pursued ; besides, he ought not to be found fault with. He had presented thirty peti tions in thirty-five minutes, and if other Hon. Members would not take longer time, the whole of the petitions would soon he got rid of. Mr. AGLIONBY considered that some other course must be adopted with regard to the presentation of peti tions on this subject. His name stood nearly 500 on th e list, and unless some different course were pursued, it would be impos•ible for him to present his petitions be fore the Bill was passed, Mr. FINN presented a petition from Rosemain, in the county of Kilkenny, against the Irish Coercive Bills. The petitioners prayed the House not to enact a law which might place them at the mercy of any individual, however exalted his rank or station in life might he. Major I3EAUCLERK presented petitions against the Irish Coercive Bill, from St. Mary's, Newington, the prayer of which was much the same as the petitions al ready presented. Ile sincerely supported the prayer of the petition. The Hon. Member presented another Pe from the same parish to the same effect. The Hon. Member also presented a similar p tition from Wandsworth and Clapham, praying the House not to pass these coercive measures, but to give the unfortunate people of that country redress for their grievances. The Hon. Member also presented a similar petition from the town of 1-I , r,hain, and from the P.litical Union of Milton. Mr. LYNCH presented petitions against the Coercive Bill from St. Michael's East, Galway ; from the parish of Kalabroun, from St. Nicholas North ; from the coopers of Galway, the artificers of Galway, the sawyers, platers, carpenters, stone cutters, and cabinet-makers of Galway. The Hon. Member also presented similar petition. from Killinhard and Deriegal. Mr. TALBOT presented a similar petition from a parish in Wexford. Mr. PERRIN presented similar petitions from Mona ghan, Kihnore, and Drumsland. The petitions were trt:n-d by a great number of persons of all religious per suasions, and the petitioners stated that though they were ardent admirers of his Majesty's Ministers, they deprecated the introduction of the present mea,ures, considering that they tended to put rn end to the legislative Act of Union. The Hort . . MEMBER, also presented a similar petition from Granard, in the county of Longford. Mr. WALKER presented a similar petition from Drum conner, in the county of Wexford. Mr. M'LAUGHLIN presented similar petitions from ti e nailers, tailors, turners, letter-press-printers, tobac conists, and barbers, of the town of Galway. Mr. GUEST presented a petition from Mt rthyr Tydvil, signed by ; 4,900, against the Irish Coer cive Bill. The Hon. Member considered that a case had been made out to justify the adoption of some extraor dinary powers, though he would not say that he would go along with the present Bill to its full extent. The Mr. COBBETT said, that if the Hon. Member who had presented those petitions, had refrained from making a speech, he would not have said a word in reply; but when a Member, in making a speech against the petitions, took occasion to express an opinion that a case had been made out, and that it was proved to Parliament that a Bill for coercive measures ought to pass, he (Mr. Cohbett) would take leave to say that there had been no good ground raised for the Bill, and that nothing had been proved to show to him that it ought to pass. He did not pretend to say that no Bill ought to pass, but it was quite another thing to take away trial by jury. He remembered a case that occurred in Pennsylvania— The SPEAKER interposed, and intimated that that was not the question. Mr. COBBETT said ke was merely about to illustrate his argument. The SPEAKER said the Hon. Member must be aware that he was not confining himself to the question before the House. _ _ Mr. COBBETT said he would then do so. The Hon. Member who presented the petitions had asserted that a case had been mide out to justify the Bill. He merely wished to contend that no case whatever had been made out. The SPEAKER again eaid the Hon. Member was not spe,kinz to the question before the House. Mr. COBBETT then sat down. Mr. GUEST denied that in presenting the petitions he had made any speech upon them. Mr. COBBETT rose and said that he never wished to ilo any thing contrary to the forms of the House, or to the Speaker's intimation. He only desired to say, in contra diction to the Hon. Member, that no case had been made out for passing the Bill. Mr. GLADSTONE presented a petition from the borough of Portarlington against the same Bill, and pray ing the House to institute an inquiry to ascertain if there were any grounds to justify it. The Hon. Memb , r, though he did not concur in the prayer of the petition, was hound to say that it was numerously and respectably signed. Sir RICHARD KEANE presented slmilar petitions from the parishes of Colbally, Trernorne, and Killeagh, in the county of Waterford. Mr. MARSHALL presented a petition from the ope ratives and other inhabitants of Leeds, regretting that his Majesty's Ministers had introduced such a Bill, and ex. pressing an opin.on that the existing constitutional means were quite adequate to suppress disturbances in Ireland. The SPEAKER having twice gone through his list, asked if any other Hon. Members had petitions to present. Mr. WARRE presented a petition from Hastings and St. Leonards ,igainst the Bill. Mr. GASKELL presented two similar petitions, agreed to at public meetings at Wakefield, and at Dobcross in Saddleworth. An Horr. MEMBER presented a similar petition, numerously signed, from the town and liberty of Kinsale. Mr. KINLOCH prevnted petitions also against the Bill, from the Political Union of Frome ; the Political Union of Abbotehall ; the Political Union of Edinburgh ; the Royal Burgh of Irvine; and from Alloa, in Killie coultrie. Mr. FIELDEN (we believe) presented a similar peti tion from Blackburn, praying that conciliatory measures might be adopted in lieu of the coercive me isure. Mr. HUTT presented a similar petition from the town of Kingston-upon-Hull, signed by 400 persons. Mr. FITZSINION presented petitions against the Irish Coercive Bill, from the parish of St. Margaret's, the parishes of Lush and Rush, the town of Horne, and five other parishes hi the county of Dublin. The Hon. Member said that it was most gratifying to him to see so many petitions pouring in, not only from Ireland, but also from all parts of this country, against this iniquitous Bill. Colonel WILLIANIS presented a petition from Ashton under•Line against the Bill. The petitioners stated that unless the tithe system was done away with, and the hier archy abolished in Ireland, and poor laws introduced into that ciuntry, die peop!e would be driven to such a state of suffering, that anarchy and revolution must be the inevitable result. They also prayed for a reduction in the taxes on malt, hops, soap, and sugar, the abolitio❑ of the taxes on knowldge, and houses, and windows; and prayed for the better accommodation of the Members of that house. Mr. FIELDEN presented a petition from Colne against the Bill. Mr. O'CONNOR presented a petition from Bandon, which he begged leave to read, as it came from a town almost exclusively a Protestant town. The petitioners stated their indignation' and alarm at the measures intro duced by his Majesty's Ministers for that country, and denied that there existed any serious political disturbances in their county, adding that the issue of the late elec tions bad given great offence to a party in their neigh bourhood, who were waiting with anxiety full the passing of the Bill to wreak their vengeance on the people, because they had dared to exercise the privileges, which were given them by reform. The Hon. Member then presented petitions to the same effect from Acton, in the county of Cork; Charleville. Maccroome, Agnesborough, Ruthfilly, in the county of Carlow, and Alichaelatown Mr. O'CONNELL present--d petitions against the Bill from Burr, in L (ncashire, Rochdale, Political Unionists and other inhabitants of Kidderminster. This petition was signed by 6,329 persons. All these petitioners stated their indignation and horror at the introduction of the Bill. Alsw petitions to the same effect from the borough of l'reston. The petitioners, in this instance, viewed the Bill with indignation and contempt, and stated that as Englishmen they never would consent to the establishment of tyranny anywhere. Similar petitions from Keightley, in Yorkshire, Chichester, parishes of St. Margaret and St. John, Dublin. Also one from the city of Dub lin, signed by upwards of 20,000 persons, and he was informed all those signatures were put to it in oue day. The petitioners expressed their sorrow and regret at the introduction of such a measure, and thought it would de monstrate to the Irish people, not only that repeal was necessary, but that the still worse measure of separation from England must be the result of such a course of legis lation. Among the signatures attached to this petition were men of the first wealth, moral habits, and tempers almost passive. Alany of them had hitherto resisted all agitation, and others were attached by the ties of hope to the Anglesea and Stanley Government, but they had now changed their opinion, and had attached their names to this petition. He had similar petitions from Wingham, in Kant, the journeymen butchers of Dublin, Mr. 0. Br alley, of Wm csster, the inhabitants of Watling-street, Dublin. Wexford, the 'Frad s' Political Union of Dublin, the volun teers of Ireland, parish of Dunamore, in Me oh, cons plainins of the calumnies propagated in Ireland respecting that country, which was perfectly tranquil ; also from the pa rishes of St. Audeon, St. Mary,D )nnybrook, St. Michael, and St. James, Dublin ; front Baiiyn tgh, in the county Cavan, stating that that county was in a state of tran quillity ; also from the roaster butchers of Dublin, frosu Ballybay, in Monaghan, from Athlone, from Strathmore, and other parishes in Wexford, and also from the city of Londonderry. He did nut see the Hon. 'Wernher for that city in the House, who had on a former evening presented a petition from it in favour of the Bill, but lie begged to state that the petition now pre rated had been adopted at a public meeting properly con vened by the Mayor, and the petitioners had informed him, in the letter they had addressed to him, that the petition in favour of the Bill had been principally signed by Scotch traders, who had resided but a short time in the town. The Hon. Member also presented a petition from the youths of Dublin, complaining of the introduction of the Coercive Bill, and stating that it would subject then; to more tyranny than ever their forefathers had suffered, and also stating that they would rather die in their youth than be slaves. The Hon. Member also presented a nuns ner of petitions from the Carron Iron Works, signed by The r7O H O p 0 n. e r i‘ s i o , n ins and a iter al s o l • n presented o e from the a o petition us ir Galway C. Wo'seley, stating that be had heard w:th feelings of alarm of the in troduetion of a B;11 which would alienate seven millions of his M ijesty's subjects from this country. The petitioner stated that he considered the Bill of a terrific and sanguinary nature, and prayed the House not to pass it into a law. The Hon. Member also presented petitions from the commercial clerks of Dublin, and from the parishes of St. James and St. Catherine in that city, complaining of the conduct of the present Ad ministration, declaring that they had lost the confidence of the country, and praying the House not to pass the Bill they had introduced. Also petitions from St. Mark's, Dublin, from Dundalk, and Grangegorman. Also a peti tion from the parish of St. Andrew's, stating that Ireland had been overtaxed since the Union_tracing the miseries under which that country laboured from that source, and praying that the House, instead of sanctioning coercive measures, would take into consideration the repeal of th, Union. Also petitions from the members of the National Trades' Political Union, and from the operative carpenters of Dublin, praying his Majesty to remove from his councils the Chief Secretary for Ireland, and entreating the House not to sanction the coercive measures. Also petitions from a parish in Wexford, from Bow Lone in the city of Dublin, and front Eccles, against the Bill, and praying for a repeal of the Union. Also a petition from Newry against the Bill. Ti e Honourable Member also presented petitions from New port, two parishes in the county of Kildare, from the Political Union of Ruthengall, from the town of Naas, from the Independent Political Club of the city of Lon donderry, and from the town of Callan, in the county of Kilkenny.—All the petitions were ordered to lie on the table. Mr, FITZGERALD presented a similar petition from the parish of Killarney. Mr. CHRISTMAS presented similar petitions from the parishes of Carolly and Capper, in the county of Waterford, and one from ae town of Dungarvan, signed by 1,150 persons, who stated their opinion, that the Bill now before the House was likely to cause more disturb ance in Ireland than had yet taken prace. Mr. BUCKINGHAM presented similar petitions which had been agreed to at public meetings, held in Halifax and Sheffield. The latter petition expressed the regret of the petitioners that conciliatory measures had not been adopted instead of coercive measures, which they were confident would incresee the had feeling which now pre vail, d in some parts of Ireland. Mr. M. 0 FERR ALL presented a petition to the same effect from a parish in the county of Kildare, and said he believed that that part of the country was in a state of tranquillity. Mr. HAWKINS presented a similar petition from the borough of Newport, in the Isle of Wight, and said that he heartily concurred in its prayer. An HoN. MEMBER. presented a petition to the same effect from the town of Sligo. Mr. HENRY GRATTAN presented similar petitions from the parish of Kilcomen, and from parishes in the counties of Tyrone and Meath.

They stated that though their trade was humble, they were determined to oppose the Bill in the most determined manner. Also from the Political Union of two parishes in the county of Wexford. They stated that the present Bill was a breach of the Legislative Union, and, in point of justice, put an end to it ; from the stucco-plasterers of Dublin ; from the Political Unionists of Hepton Bridge, who prayed the House not to pass coercive measures for Ireland, but measures of conciliation; and a similar petition from Kilkenny, in the county of Limerick. Mr. H. L. BULWER presented a similar petition from the borough of Tavistock. Mr. AGLIONBY presented a similar petition from Cockermouth. He stated that when he found him self opposing his Majesty's Ministers, whom he highly respected, and sincerely wished to support, he set him self well to weigh the opinion he bad formed with respect to this Bill. After all the consideration he could give it, he found that from the first to the last he must steadily oppose it, agreeing, as be did, with the per titioners, that it was both uncalled for and unconsti tutional. Mr. CHARLES O'CONNELL presented similar petitions from the county of Kerry, and from Driver, in the same county. Mr. STANDISH BARRY presented a similar petition from Agnes, in the county of Cork. Mr. COBIJETT moved that the House be counted. Ths proposition was received with general cries of " No, no," and one Hon. Member said lie would like to know the reason for such it motion. Being pressed by Mr. O'Connell and Mr. Attwood, Mr. Cobbett withdrew his motion. Mr. COBBETT said he had a number of petitions to present against this Bill. The first to which be would call the attention of the House, was from the Northern Political Union of Newcastle, signed by fourteen thousand men.—(Hear, hear.) As to the respectability of these men, he differed from those who laid great weight on what they called the respectabilitp of petitioners. It was enough for him that a petition came from subjects of the King ; but if he were minded to dwell upon the respectability, and the public spirit of any body of men, he should not know where to find men equal to those whose names were attached to this petition. He should deem it his duty- to read it in justice to the 14,000 men who had thought fit to send their petition from Newcastle to London. . . • Mr. COBBETT then read the petition at len2th "TO THE COMMONS OF THE UNITED KINGDOM OF GREAT BRITAIN AND IRELAND, I N PARLIAMENT ASSEMBLED, THE PETITION OF THE COUNCIL AND ASSOCIATES OF THE NORTHERN POLITICAL UNION, AND OTHERS, IN PUBLIC MEETING ASSEMBLED. " Sheweth, " That your petitioners have heard with indescribable amazement, of the introduction into your Honourable House, of a Bill for the suspension of the Habeas Corpus Act in Ire land; a Bill for the establishment of Martial Law there; a Bill for investing a mere deputy of the Government, the Lord Lieutenant, with an absolute authority to prohibit and prevent the exercise, upon the part of the Irish people, of the great fundamental, and constitutional public right, of meeting to petition for redress of wrongs I " That your petitioners can only feebly express the shock with which this transaction has confounded them; yet, deeply wounded as their feelings are, and shaken as is their confidence in public men, they feel that they have duties to perform of a much sterner nature than to admit of a long indulgence in pas sionate complaints. That, invoking, therefore, the witness of Heaven to the justice of their cause, and the public spirit of their country to its sanction and support, they respectfully pe tition your Honourable House ; they earnestly remonstrate ; they solemnly protest against the danger--the cruelty—the ty ranny of such unheard-of legislation! "'That your petitioners do not believe in the existence of Whitefeet or Blackfeet outrages, to a degree so far beyond what has, for seventy years, at least, been frequent, as to con stitute a call for any measures beyond the application of a more than usual degree of zeal, of prudence, and of energy, on thepart of a luxurious, inefficient, and inert executive admi nistration. " That, even granting the existence of such disorders, to a degree beyond that which they have ever previously extended to—a fact, however, which they are not called on to admit, upon the mere declamatory statement of a servant of the Crown—your petitioners implore you Honourable House, before consenting to any new measures of harshness or coer cion, and, at any rate, before consenting to lay the axe unto the very root of the Constitution, by the establishment of a Government of force ; that you will institute a severe in. quiry, into not only the truth of such facts, but into the causes which have produced them. For that your petitioners believe that your Hon. House would ascertain by such inquiry, that all the disturbances and miseries of Ireland originate in wrongs, oppressions, insults, and misrule ; that, therefore, re. dress, and not coercion, is the only proper, just, and efficacious remedy ; and that the enactment of severe and arbi trary laws, were, consequently, inhuman, unjust, and dangerous. And that it further seems to your peti tioners, that, to legislate for a people exasperated by long privation of the practical advantages of a popular constitution, only by the arrogant abolition of their share and portion in its personal securities, immunities, and rights, were but to invite and challenge their eternal animosity ; and that to endeavour, at the same time, to suppress by violence, the convulsive agitations of a body politic, not only wild with political exasperation, but frenzied with physical distress, were not less insanely foolish, or less intolerably cruel, than to seek to still the writhings of a natural body, by the driving of another nail amidst the torments of the crucifixion! " That your petitioners regard these measures in a still more serious point of view, than solely as regards their justice and their policy, with reference to Ireland. It is in their eyes the general cause of liberty, which is wounded through the sides of Ireland; it is the security, the sanctity, the very soul and essence of the British Constitution, which they regard as outraged and violated by even the proposition of such laws as these. That by their operation your petitioners would feel themselves insulted and degraded, in the persons of their Irish brethren. That it cannot be denied to be the effect of such enactments (if enactments they should ever be), to pro claim and establish a power in the general Government or legislature of the kingdom, to abolish civil and political liberty at its own mere will, and abrogate, by binding laws, the very form, as well as spirit of the Constitution ! "That against all claim or usurpation of such powers as these, your petitioners do utterly and earnestly protest; and against the enactments which are now proposed, as tacitly in volving such a monstrous claim, they no less earnestly petition. For they are not able to map out the constitution into an Eng lish and an Irish part ; nor do they see in what manner, com patibly with that claim which is so loudly urged on Ireland, " And your petitioners will ever pray." The next petition was from the inhabitants and electors; of Nottingham, which the Hon. Member real. The nex petition he had to present was from Bslfast, whit h was worthy of the particular attention of the Hon" especially as something had been a aid last night in disparagement of those who signed it. As he had said before, he made no distinction as to the respectability of petitioners. If a man was a subject of the King—if he was untarnished by crime—if he was a fr• etnan, his game was just as good as the name of the richest man in the kingdom.—(Hear.) If, however, he were to enter into particulars, he could show that amongst the names attached to this petition, were those of the richest and most respectable in Belfast. It was a petifo e m ex'remely well worded, and the petitioners challsoged any person or persons who objected to it to write one as good. The 'next petition was one from Great Yarmouth, Nisselk, and entitled to great respect from the nsnaber of petition ers who had signed it. This petition had to bet ken back after it was read, in consequence of its being in de • ,ached sheets, and no petitioners names in the first sheet. The Hon. Member presented another petition, but we did not learn from where, which was very long, and which he would not read ; it expressed great indignation at the in troduction of such a tyrannical measure into Ireland, and the determination of the petitioners by all lawful means to resist it. The next was from the Political Union of Eastbourne, where the House would see to what extent had tr sell d the indtg. nation that was felt against this Bill. There wes not a town, nor city, nor borough, that had not imbibed the feeling that this was a most unjust measure. The petitioners considered, that by the introduerpin of the present measure Ministers had clearly shown themselves unworthy of the confidence of the country, and incapable of managing its affeirs.—(Cries of " Hear, hear.") They els° stated their firm belief that the miseries under which Ireland laboured had arisen from the hoevy tithe and taxation under which that country labourer% The Hon. Member also presented two petition, from the parishes of St. Nicholas Within and Without, in ths city of Dublin, praying the House not to sanction the proposed measures of coercion, or any measure which would interfere with the rights of petitioning or trial by Jury. Also praying that the House would not interfere with existing laws, except through the medium of a strict Parliamentary inquiry. Also a petition from the Sevenoaks Politica! Union, pray ing the House to pause before it proceeded to viol ate the constitution el rights of so many millions of Irish subjects. It also prayed the House to abolish the tithe system, and other grievances under which Ireland bad so long and so unjustly I (booted. The Hon. and Learned Member also presented a petition from Clone, in the county of Wexford, against the Bill, the petitioners believing that it had been intro duced for the purpose of enforcing the collection of tithes. Mr. T. ATTWOOD presented a petition from the town of Newtonbarry, which informed the House that that district was in a perfect state of tranquillity, notwithstanding the heartrending circumstances which had occurred at that place, when so many of their relatives and friends were slaughtered in open day. The petitioners were very much surprised that no allusions of sympathy had been expressed by big a:t x :i7k s a l I t o e t k h , e c a i n r ti itishct that t r sh had l t thatoecu impartialr event , re d Committee and omc mi tee should be a ct P uie p amyj o : i st n ta t ypn e r d esde r s3ediwi w nh ith a view to inquire into the state of Ireland, and to redress all the grievances which afflicted the country. The petition was signed by 540 persons, who, he supposed, were nearly all the inha bitants of that unfortunate town. He next had to present 't petition, signed by 1,100 iuhabitauts of Nuneaton, in the county of Warwick, and one signed by 900 persons of a town in the county of Mayo, stating that that part of the county was in a state of perfect tranquillity. He also presented a similar petition from the town of Dar.. laston, in the county of Stafford. O'CONNOR DON presented similar petitions from a parish in the county of Kilkenny, and from Kilronea, in, the county of Roscommon. _ Mr. M. PHILLIPS presented a similar petition from Chester, agreed to at a public meeting. He could not sanction the introduction of martial law into Ireland. He must therefore vote against that clause of the Bill. Mr. VERNON presented four petitions from plseeer ho Derbyshire against the Bill.—Tbe petitions were ordered to lie on the table. Mr. Alderman WOOD brought up the report of the Serjeants' Inn Committee, and a Bill was ,ordered to be brought in accordingly. Mr. GROTE presented a petition from Castlemore against the Irish Bill. It being now past three o'clock, the Speaker left the chair. THE TEN HOURS BILL.—We hope that vhen the Ten Hours Bill petition from Canterbury is presented in Parliament, it will be stated by some one of our Kentish representatives, that it was negatived at 4 public meeting by an immense majority, because it did not embody a declaration that over-taxation wls the eause of , hat unnatural state of things which called for legislative i , iterference between the parent and his child..—Kent Herald. DEATH OF THE EARL OF LLANDAFF.— We regret to announce the death of the Earl of LLANDAFF, vhich took place yesterday, at the resid,nce of his Lord ship, in Merrionssquare. He had been walking through town a day previous, apparently in good health. The titles of his Lordship, Earl LLANDAFF ani Viscount MA. - rum, are, we believe, extinct. Es next brother, the Honourable General MamEw, who represented the county of Tipperary in several successive Parliaments, died four teen years ago, shortly after the contested election, in which he and the present Earl of GLENGALL were the successful candidates, and the Hon. Mr. PRIrrlE was defeated. Ilia -econd brother, the lion. GEORGE AIATHEVV, died 4 snort time since. The late Earl of LLANDAFF Was married tci Miss LATOUCHE, sister to JOHN DAVID LATOUCHE, Esq. The family seat is Thomastown, in the county of Tippe rary.—Dublin Morning Register, of Wednesday. For several nights past there has been seen about the marshes near the sea, in this parish, a singular object, white and solid, floating capriciously just above the r .t t , in n n i s d h , m i n e ntth and shape of a nd dismay or sack , a oif individuals, tor ot he n wh o a em Il have come in contact with this headless spectacle. But although it comes in such a questionable shape," no one h i s yet had the courage to demand an explanation. Of coutse we, in our superior judgment, " hold that spirits are . from delusions," and laugh at the al •rming inlerencee, which gain credence from the simple. At tkt sante lane, as several respectable persons have attester! that such anlappearance has been seen, we shohld feel interested by a further acquaintance with this ghostly iilmnomena, if the experience of any reader of the Sherburne Journal will enable us to gain it.—Sherburne Journal. BUCKINGHAM PALACE.—The new improve :nenta from the grand entrance at Hyde Park-corner, through the arch of Constantine to the Palace, are nearly finished. Immediately near the arch a reservoir was made some time since in a situation the most unaccountable, as it it were intended to block up the road for carriages down Comititution-hill. The inconvenience, however, is now avoided by a sweep of the avenue, towards the northern ex. trefnity of the Palace-garden, leaving the reservoir on the vA left, obscured by a shruiibery, and surrounded by an iron r fling. The carriage road has been much improve,ci A s Berber e shabby with paling broade taken st- e p n away aths at either " s enclosed the and plantation, and the latter is no long er a receptacle for filth it excell ent has been and various other nuisances.
