wisitat:on of the leve should fall on those who were really guilty. if the Right Hon. Secretary for I:eland did nut agree with him in opita;cn on this point, and offer some explanation with respect to the conduct of the Govern ment towards those of the police who were proved to have gone further than their duty authorized them, he sboula in Committee that night move as an amendment to ti e second resolution the resolution which had the other night been proposed by the Hon. Member for Weterford. Mr. LITTLETON thought it was e bad plan to be continually makingstatements not founded in fact, and to he raising arguments upon them, since no good could result from such a course, but on the contrary much evil. Such a course only tended to add to the excitement which pre vailed in Ireland. For himself, he had considerable doubts as to the correctness of the greater number of these statements. He had heard of many similar statements, but when be consulted the papers of the Irish Office, he did not find theta recorded. Now with respect to the two police cases so frequently adverted to—he meant the ease of the police lnspector in the county Kildare, and the case of sergeant Shaw—he begged to state to the House that the former was dismissed, and that the latter was ordered to be tried. With respect to the Faye charge against Shaw, he was surprised at the opinion of the magistrates before whom his case was brought. It was extremely lenient in them to say what they did of the con duct of Shaw. He hoped that the House would be sat is fied with this explanation, and Hon. Gentlemen might be assured that Government were determined to do their duty with respect to Ireland. He was convinced, and Hon. Gentlemen might be convinced, that the Noble Lord at the head of the Irish Government was determined to do justice by that country. No individual of that Ileuse could display more anxiety than the Noble Lord towards what was taking place in Ireland. He had received that very day a communication from his Excellency, in which the fact was stated that no military aid was granttd in the collection of tithes, unless when affidavit was made that such aid was necessary. When such affidavit was made, of course his Excellency could not refuse the aid demanded. Tithe property ought to be protected, as well as any other kind of property. Mr. O'CONNELL was certain that be was expressing the sense of that House, as well as his own, when be de clared that the explanation of the Right Hon. Secretary was perfectly satisfactory. Mr. FERGUS O'CONNOR said, however the lion. and Learned Member for Dublin might lie pleased with the explanation just made, thete was a portion of it with which he did net at all feel satisfied. That portion of it was that in which the Right Hon. Secretary said he had referred to the papers of the Irish Office for the truth of the casts complained of. Now what they on that side particularly complained of was, the incorrectness of the information sent to the Irish Office, the consequence of which wae, that Government received improper informa tion about what was taking place in Ireland. Mr. LITTLETON said that if any Hon. Member would move for an inquiry, it would at once be gi titted ; or if the two cases mentioned by the Hon. Members oppo site were brought before the Government in an authentic manner, he would himself institute such an inquiry with out any partiality. Mr. RONAYNE said that the Noble Lord (Lord Dun eannon) had stated on a former evening that only one case had occurred in Munster, namely that of Captain Gunn. Now he had received a letter from that place in which it was stated that the constables were out every night, and on the writer of the letter asking them how they dared to do so in the teeth of Lord Althorp's speech, the answer was :hat they had received no orders to the contrary ; and it was added, that the police were more active now than before they saw the report of his Lordship's speech in the newspapers. He was glad to hear that Captain Fainter had been dismissed ; but he begged it to be recol lected that that was the same Captain Flinter whose letter was quoted by the Right Hon. Secretary for the Colonies, and received by the House with great applause. Mr. STANLEY bad certainly quoted the letter of Captain Fainter, but he had likewise quoted the answer sent to it by the Irish Government; and it was because the explanation given by Captain Flinter, in reply to that answer, was not satisfactory, that be was dismissed. Lord DUNCANNON had not said that the case of Captain Gunn was the only one which had occurred in Munster, but that it was the only one mentioned in that House. Mr. SHAW defended the conduct of the clergy of Ire land, and said that it was not fair to make personal attacks upon them for endeavouring to recover their tithes, of which they hail been deprived for three years. He de nied that he had ever said that the Hon. Member for Meath was the worst landlord in Ireland; all he had said was, that the Hon. Member's tenants were very poor, and that the tithes were therefore worse paid by them than any where else. After a few words from Mr. H. GRATTAN, Mr. RUTHVEN said, that Ministers were perpetually deluding themselves upon the subject of tithes in Ireland. He would advise them to get some more information on ti e suba: et before they came to any determination what they should do. The Howie then resolved itself into a Committee upon the Tithes (Inland) Act. The CHAIRMAN read the first resolution, " That it was the opinion of that House that a certain sum of money should be advanced by Parliament to the established clergy in Ireland, in order to enable thetn to relieve the occupying tenantry from the payment of tithe, the money to be pay able by a land tax," &c. Upon which Mr. O'CONNELL took those resolutions as a proof of a disposition on the part of Government to put an end to the bad system under which tithes were levied, and to the civil war which they occasioned. If there was anything to which he objected in the plan, it was the manner in which the land tax was to be raised. One of the great grievances attending the tithe system had always been, that they were raised by distraint. Under the present plan, the same system of restraint, and all the distress which usually accompanied it, would continue. A great deal had teen said upon the subject of breaking open bosses in order to aistrain for goods. He did not believe that un der the Act of last year there was any such power given. His opinion was, that the clergy had done injury to them selves by their late conduct : they were very indiscreet in carrying the measures for the recovery of their tithes so far. They had broken doors in order to distrain, and that he would contend was illegal; He thanked his Majesty's Mi nisters for tho,te.resolutions, for be took them as a virtual exti. ction of tithes in Ireland. He felt certain that if some measures of this land had not been resorted to, there would have been a civil war throughout Ireland in three weeks. The whole country had been racked from one side to the other by the exaction of those tithes, and the dis tress cecastoned by them had become quite intolerable. Such a state of affairs had never been known before. The clery, irritated by being deprived of their tithes for three years, hail proceeded to recover them in the harshest and (1 a would say, on their own account) most imprudent manner. He denied that there was any law which obliged the Government to send soldiers out to collect titl.es. Such a system was not only imprOper, but it was unneces sary, as the clergy bad a remedy by applying to the High Sheriff, who could recover them by the ordinary course of law. With regard to the rrso:ution proposed by the Noble Lord, he (Mr. O'Connell) observed, that he stopped with the reel, siastical tithes. Was the Noble Lord right in that? Was he not aware that the lay tithes were fully as had, and fully as obnoxious, as the ecclesiastical tithes? He (Mr. O'Connell) had a letter in his possession, in which it was said truly, "The lay tithes are the worst of all, and the most oppressive."—(Hear.) The system of tithes was not confined to the clergy, and he would ask why the as sistance given by this resolution to the proprietors of ecclesiastical tithes, and not to the proprietors of lay tithes. He would answer the question. This assistance was given to the clergy because by their harsh conduct they had created excitement in the country. He thought that this was a species of bounty to the lay impropriators to follow the same course. It was as if the Government said to them, " If you succeed in bringing the country to the BIM@ state yon will then get your money comfortably."-- (Hear.) He would therefore press upon his Majesty's Government the propriety of extending this resolution to lay impropriators. What the Irish people complained of was, that when a measure was proposed which was in tended to benefit them, it was frittered away till it was not worth ' the having; but when a measure of coercion was intended, they got too much of it. It would be better and more genial to them if the Ministers only bestowed on them the fragment of coercion, btit the lull measure of the benefit.—(Hear, hear.) He was happy to think that the Right Hon. Secretary for Ireland (perhaps he would al low him to call him his friend), bad commenced h's ca reer in that country in a way likely to give satisfaction. --(Hear, hear.) The first act done by him was the dis m seal of Captain Flinter, and the second was to order sergeant Shew upon his trial. No two acts could gain the Right Hon. Gentleman greater popularity.—(Hear, hear.) His conduct was evidently dictated by a spit it of conciliation, and the resolution before them was in the same spirit. Lord ALTHORP said, that as the Hon. and L: arned Member called upon him to say to what extent he n cant to carry those resolutions, he thought it necessity to e ' • 'a:- - -ezr .. respect to the lay in - Troia - jaw; s, the , ...... 1 :4 - ; „:1114. tuber would see that the resolution ~, .-' 7 :1 1 7'41 ' : ' , .4 . %tee was not meant to extol to '4 l * I •• . I i ''', • ut to extend to ecclesiastical ''' '' 'l4 ' \:••••-• ''. Lord Alth ) did not tee au to it a aa i e ej : e. ...: ',I C I: • • e . . 4ELT1033.4 i pledge himself whether he should extend the measure or " not; but be would say that the Government would take the point into their consideration.—(Hear, hear.) It was true, as stated by the Hon. and Learned Member, that the course pursu d by the Government in this in stance might be an encouragement to lay impropriators to follow the same course which had been followed by the clergy. But whatever was done—whether they continued the present system, or attempted a remedy, they ran some hazard ; end he (Lord Althorp) was satisfied that there was less hazard in the plan now proposed, than in continu ing in their present state. It was on that ground his M t jesty's Ministers had brought forward the resolution under consideration, and he was glad to find that it appeared to give satisfaction.—(Hear.) Their object was to restore the country to quiet and peace, and be felt confident that the clergy would meet them half way in that eudeavour by not persevering in their attempts to recover the tithes at present due—(Hear, hear)—especially as they would not be in a worse situation by desisting. He hoped and trusted that the measure would have the effect anti cipated from it.—(Hear.) Colonel PERCEVAL would undertake to say, in be half of the clergy of Ireland, that as soon as the propo sition of Government was distinctly known, there would be an immediate and total cessation of the course which had been adopted. As it was, the greatest possible dis tress prevaiied among the clergy in Ireland. Lord EBRINGTON hoped that the clajms of the lay impropriators would be considered, as otherwise he n•as well convinced that the measure would be inadequate and incomp'ete. Mr. D. W. HARVEY protested against burdening peaceable and honest people who bad paid their propor tion, with the charges arising out of desperate resistance and lawless riot. Lotd ALTHORP explained, that those who had paid their tithe would not be so burdened. Mr. D. W. HARVEY continued. He protested against such unmeaning, ineffective measures as these : what Government hail to do was to extinguish tithe both in England and Ireland, and substitute a land tax fur the deficiency. This was the only way to give stabi lity to the Government and duration to the church. They might be assured, that if they confined their ec-lesiastical reform to such a measure as this, they would not only he defeated in another place, but their defeat would be once greeted by the people: Their fall would be as unregretted as it was deserved. As to the anticipated opposition of another Hou , e, there would he as much oppo sition from these supporters of things as they were to the displacing of a church stone, or the taking the surplice from a single wearer, as to anything else. He (Mr. D. W. Harvey) would suiyest to Ministers a way of making up the sum they wanted now ; there was Queen Anne's bout►ty—(A laugh)—a million and a half cash in hand. Borrow this, for the holders of it seemed very lax about it, having very readily advanced 40,0001. of it for repairing Lambeth Palace, and letting their trea surer run off with 20,0001. more. Let this amount then be transferred to Government to supply the proposed fund ; they would hardly make it up elsewhere. The only good he saw derivable from the present resolution was, that they would serve as a proclamation to the whole population not to pay a farthing more tithe, for it demon strated th it they had only to imitate the agitation in Ire land, and he immediately fre,d from the impost. What he wanted Ministers to do wa., to hold out to the people the joyful anticipation of the total extincttion of tithes. Let them do this, and they may hold as nought the at pre- sent dreaded majority in anott er House, — tor they would have as supporters that same people who had so gloriously carried them through every thing at the time of the Reform Bill. Now was the time, or never; let Ministers take their stand upon the great principle of real ecclesias tical reform, and they would save themselves in saving the Church. He should, however, support the resolutions. Mr. F. O'CONNOR said the measure, as now pro posed, would give no satisfaction. The only way to make it effective would be to adopt the amendments so ably thrown out by the Hon. and Leirned Member for Dublin. A land tax was the only way of effew ing extinction of tithe. Lord ALTHORP said that the object of his resolutions was precisely a land-tax ; for the purpose of relieving the tenantry from the pressure of the arrears of tithe for the list three years, as well as for preceding periods. The proposed mode of effecting it was, that each parish should Ise applotted for the amount of tithe due, and that the parish should then have the power of applotting upon each individual in possession to the amount of his debt. And as it would of count., be a great hardship that those who had paid their tithe should be subject to this tax, it was proposed to relieve them from it, and the receipts for the payment of their tithe woull be a quittance in full. The object proposed to be attained by Government would be this; by the law, as it at present stood, after Nov. next, the occupying tenant at will would be freed from the obligation to pay tithe, and the impost would fall upon the landlord. The Government intended to pro pose that in every case where the landlord bad not com pounded, he may, within a certain time, come in and compound at a reduction of fifteen per cent. This would effect a great removal of pressure from the poorer classes in Ireland, from a body almost exclusively Catholics; while the landlords were almost as exclusively Pro- testants; and, therefore, the proposed relief would exactly apply to that part of the population mast entitled to it. He hoped this explanation would suffice for the Hon. Member who spoke last, and be would now refer to what had fallen from the Hon. Member for Colchester (Mr. D. W. Harvey), whose support he was certainly most glad _ . . to have; but he must confess that had the Hon. Gentle man not expressly promised his support, be should, from the apparent tendency of his observations, have anticipated a decided opposition. The Hon. Gentleman animadverted upon Government for an allegtd readiness to lavish money on every occasion. The proposition of the Hon. Gentle• man went much further than this in its apparent ten dency—for he could not suppose he meant seriously to make such a proposal—for the apparent tendency of it was spoliation, for be advised them to take Queen Anne's bounty.—(A laugh.) Mr. D. W. HARVEY—As a loan. Lord ALTHORP said, very well, it might be so osten sibly; but the Hon. Gentleman prefaced his proposition by saying that the money would never be repaid, and he (Lord A.) could not but think that borrowing without an intention of repayment amounted almost to spoliation. Mr. D. W. HARVEY said the Directors of this Bounty would take care of themselves. Lord ALTHORP thought Government would take equal care in providing good security, and be considered that the land in Ireland would be quite sufficient. The Hon. Gentleman said that the present proposal would only induce the people of England to refuse to pay tithes ; but he had such confidence in the good sense of the people of England, that he did not expect that it would lead to any such refusal. He was satisfied, whatever the Hon. Gentleman might say, that the people of England, the great mass of the community, were attache:l to the church of England. The Hon. Gentleman was like other persons, be kept company with a particular class of persons, and he fancied that their opinions were the opinions of the whole community. If the Hon. Gentleman expected that the church could be destroyed, he was mistaken, and be was sure if the Ministers were to bring forward any plan to injure the church of England, that such a proposal would destroy the Ministry.—(Hear, hear.) He felt confident that in making this statement he was speaking the sentiments of the people of England. The Hon. Gentleman, and those who thought like the Hon. Gentle man, were, he believed, utterly miataken. The measure, • . • _ if it were adopted, would do good to Ireland, and he hoped the House would express the same opinion as the Hon. Gentleman meant to express by his vote, and not follow what the Hon. Gentleman had said in his speech. Sir ROBERT INGLIS thought that the House might have been spared much acrimonious animadversion on the character of the clergy of Ireland, had the Irish Members formerly made the admissions which had this night been made by some of their most violent opponents. It was admitted that they had not exacted their dues with as much rigour as the landlords. He would not, however, make any comparisons—he only rose to say that it was not fair to the clergy to speak of the tithes as connected with spiritual duties. He denied that they were. From the instant the tithes were separated from the church, nine centuries ago, by law, they ceased to be given for any spi ritual duties whatever. He would state, for the informs-- tion of the Hon. Member for Colchester, that Queen Anne's Bounty could not supply a bounty sufficient for the purpose of the resolu►ion. With respect to payments, he was sure that all payments were u;timately made by the land'ord, and came out of the land. He could not, therefore, admit that anything was or could be paid by the ten tilts, and concluded by expressing his satisfaction at the measure. Mr. O'FERRALL did not object to the motion. It would certainly give Ireland peace for one year. As to the mode of payment, it should fall on those who wished to keep up the church. Those who desired the luxury of a Church establishment should pay for it. The Hon. Mem ber supported the resolution. Mr. FINN said the grievance consisted in having a church for 750,000 people only,while there was a impala tion of nearly eight millions who did not belong to that church. The consequence was that the religious educa tion of the people of Ireland cost from 17s. to 20s. a head, while that of the people of England cost 101. a head. In Scotland it was cheaper, costing 2s. a head ! in ranee it cost 10J., and in America, which was the examp e he liked beet, it coot...notbini, tub man finding his own way to Heaven in tb best manner he could, and paying any minister he pleased. The Noble Lord propsed to repay this money by a land.tax. Was an incoming tenant to be liable or the landlord ? Lord ALTHORP said that the charge would he on all the land of Ireland. In the case supposed by the Hon. Gentleman, he admitted that injustice would be done. The tenant certainly who hail refused to pay tithes would escape the payment, and the charge must be paid by the land.—( Hear, hear.) Mr. FINN further contended, that in fact the landlord would pay nothing, his power was so great over the tenants. He complained of a part of the last Composition Act, by which the clergy were enabled in May to demand tithe of potatoes that were then scarcely sown. Mr. GISBORNE said it was said, when the plan last year was brought forward, that to transfer the debt to the Crown would put an end to all difficulties, and that the people would then have no objection to pay.—(Cheers.) That was a prediction which had not been verified.— (Cheers.) The Crown had made the people its debtors, but the arrears of tithe were not paid.—(Hear.) The Crown, then, had not succeeded. `►as it fair, then, to place the landlord of Ireland in the situation of tithe proctor ; and was he to be made to collect the tithe which the Crown could not collect? All these alterations were a mere juggle, and they left the greater grievance un touched.—(Hear, hear, hear.) That grievance was, that the Roman Catholics were obliged to support the Pro.. testant Church—( Hear, hear, hear)—and it would net be removed by these resolutions. Out of that House, every person he met or spoke with was of opinion that an alteration of the law was necessary as to the Irish church. He might even go further, end say that they all thought it ought to lie put an end to.—. (Hear, hear, and cheers.) He knew a gentleman who was f g to another at a public school, and strongly did he remember the discipline he received there, that he never met the gentleman, under whose dominion he had been, without fancying he was still a fag. So it appeared to be with this Government ; they had been so long under the dominion of the Tories, that they could not reconcile their present emancipation, and had a most unwholesome deference and respect to Tory feeling—(Cheers)—and their first cry was, on all occasions, Wbat will the Tories think of it?—(A laugh.) Try, however, what they would, he believed they could not avoid a collision. When a collision came, as be believed it must come, he hoped that House would act with fiimness—(Louil cheers) — and also with temperance.—(Hear.) He should vote for this measure, however, not because he supported it on its merits, but because he looked on it as an instalment of 6s. Bd. in the pound, and because he believed the other instalments must of necessity follow.—(Heir.) Mr. SHAW—The Han. Gentleman had said that his object was to destroy the church of Ireland ; he hoped the Government would learn a lessen from this, when the Hon. Gentleman stated that with this view he supported the Bill. He did not often touch on a subject which had been frequently adverted to by hi; Hon. Friend the Mem ber for the University of Oxford—he meant the King's coronation oath—(ol,, oh, and Hear)—but though he differed from his lion. Friend on that point in some respects, yet, with regard to any measure which attacked the support and maintenance of the Irish church esta blishment, he would say that no man of common sense, common honour, or common honesty, could recommend Ministers to advise the Crown to any measure which, by destroying the Irish church, should violate the act of union and the coronation oath. Mr. GISBORNE was willing to put common sense out of the question, but he trusted that the Hon. Member did not mean to apply the words common honour and common honesty to him. Mr. SHAW disclaimed applying thewords and offensively ; but he would repeat, that if any Minister of the Crown gave such advice to his Majesty as would lead to the destruction of the Irish church, he was neither possessed of common honour, nor honesty.—( Hear.) He differed very much from the Hon. Gentleman who wished employ a clergyman as he would employ a lawyer or doctor ; and who wished to go to Heaven his own way, just as he would choose any hackney-coach from a stand to carry him to his lodgings.—(A laugh.) Upon the whole, he should not object to the plan of Lis Majesty's Ministers. Mr. LITTLETON expressed great surprise at the speech of the Hon. Member for Derbyshire. -He had not yet complete returns, but he would take that opportunity of laying before the House, as nearly as possible, what was the result of the Act of last session. The gross amount of arrears of tithe due for 1831 was 105,6931., from this there were some deductions, which made the net amount 104,2851. Of this, proceedings had been instituted to recover 83,3541. The amount of arrears for which no proclamations were issued, or, if issued, subsequently sus pended, was 20,931/. Of this 83,354/. for which pro ceedings were taken, 12,100/. only had been recovered. Such had been the result of the Act of last year. What course could the Crown then adopt after this successful opposition to the law ? He knew none, unless it were some measure of adjustment similar to tbat proposed by his Noble Friend. Under the Act of last session, the tithe was received in small sums, and from the tenantry, the largest portion of whom were Roman Catho lics, and, consequently most hostile to the payment of tithes. But in the present case, it would be levied, not from the tenants, but from the landlords—(Hear, hear)—and, consequently, from a much smaller number of persons, not, perhaps, more than as one to fifty. Much bad been said about the harshness of the clergy in collect ing their tithes—he thought that hardly fair ; there ap peared to he as much harshness on one side as the other, and perhaps the lay impropriators had been more rigorous than the clergy, whilst there was the less cause for so doing, for with the former tithes did not constitute their whole property, which was most frequently the case with the latter.—(Hear, bear.) He denied, in opposition to the statement that had been made, that Government had permitted the military to be resorted to for the purpose of serving process for tweets of tithe due only at May last. Major BEAUCLERK said that, in his opinion, the speech of the Hon. Member for Derbyshire was one of the most sensible he had heard in that House for some time. and. however it might be received within those walls, would produce a great effect out of that House.—(Hear, hear.) It was, in his opinion, very unfair of the Go vernment to throw u;;on the Irish landlords debts which they had never contracted. Government would have acted much more fairly, if out of the 3,000,000.. which they promised that House from the church t e mporalities, tl.ey had undertaken to pay these arrears.—(Hear.) Dr. BALDWIN declared that the attempt of Ministers to shift the tithe from the tenant to the landlord, would only have the effect of combining the tenantry and land lord together for the purpose of getting rid of the tithes, and indeed of the church altogether.— (Hear.) Mr. JOHN MURRAY remarked, that if any plan could be discovered which was likely to be injurious to the cause of the established church in Ireland, it was a measure founded upon the indefeasible rights of that church. Mr. BELLEW thought that the Ministerial measure left untouched the principal grievance of which the Ca tholics in Ireland had to complain—the undue proportion of ecclesiastical property which was assigned to the support of the Protestant establishment. Mr. CHAPMAN was of opinion that the system of combination would only be increased by the Ministerial plan. Mr. TALBOT said an important, mistake had been committed both by Ministers and by a great part of that House, in supposing that the amount of the tithes was considered the principal grievance. It was not the amount of tithes, hut the appropriation of thein.—(Hear, hear.) Mr. DOMINICK BROWNE said Ireland would never be contented, in his opinion, until the Catholic Church could resume that proportion which he had mentioned of the revenues which formerly belonged to it. Though a Pro testant, he considered that every man in Ireland was disgraced by the perpetuation of a system which placed so large a portion of the Irish people in a state of such infe riority with respect to the support of their religious opinions. He was sorry to see that no Catholic Member came forward to claim the rights which his church dis tinctly possessed. He was not a Catholic, but he looked upon himielf as a representative of the Irish people in general.—( Hear, bear.) Sir HUSSEY VIVIAN said, that though the numbers of the Protestants in Ireland were much smaller than those of the Catholics, yet the property in the hands of the Protestants was considerably greater ; se that it was Pro testant property after all which paid the greater portion of the tithe that was applied to the support of the Protestant church. Mr. FINN explained. Mr. FINCH considered the church establishment of Ireland to be one of the noblest insti , utions in the world. He should certainly vote for the resolutions, but he did so with pain, as he felt that it was only a choice of evils. Mr. WARD would also vote for the resolutions. Mr. EDWARD RUTH VEN, as the representative of a large Catholic constituency, felt himself bound to resist any aitempt to make that constituency support the minis ters of a Protestant church. Mr. A. LEFROY supported the resolution. Colonel CONOLLY begged, in common with every man w ho was anxious for the safety and welfare of the established church in Ireland, to express his gratitude to the Noble Lord for the boon which he was confetring on that church by these resolutions. It would relieve a large and suffering and most nieritorious body from the Severe evils which they had long been enduring. Mr. E. RUTHVEN said that to his not representing a Catholic constituency, of fourteen or fifteen hundred Ca tholics in the county of Kildare, a thousand voted for him. As to his not having any property in the county, he had asked no man to give him a qualification ; he had a house in the county where any gentleman who chose to honour him with a visit should be hospitahly received.--(A laugh.) Sir W. INGLIS @aid a few words in explanation. Colonel VERNER supported the resolutions, and main tained that while law existed the church had as much right to its tithe as the landlord had to his rents. Lord ALTHORP—Sir, I admired, in common wills others, the temper in which the present debate was com menced, and I regret that that temper has not been pre served. I have been thanked by some Hon. Gentlemen, and perhaps more than I deserve, for bringing this propo sition forward. My real object in doing so was not alto. gether for the benefit of the church, but because I thought that there was extreme danger in allowing the present state of things to continue in Ireland, and because I thought that it was indispensable that Parliament should interfere and put a stop to it. I was quite aware that it was a proposition which was liable to certain objections ; but I hoped, and I continue to hope, that it will be pro ductive of much good ; and therefore that the House nil overrule those objections, and agree to a proposition that, in my opinion, is calculated to benefit England as well as Ireland. It is, as the House must already know, intended by this measure that the landlords should be entitled to re cover from those tenants who themselves have not paid their tithes, and I am aware that this feature of the measure is open to some objection, and even to an ob jection of some apparent weight ; but, upon reflection, I am sure the Committer will agree with me, that the weight is only in appearance. I think the Committee will also agree with me, that if the land tax thus intended to be imposed were to he collected in the same manner as the tithes have heretofore been collected, it could not be productive of satisfaction, as it must of necessity be looked upon in the same light as the old burden of tithes ; if tithes were to be collected, in the same proportions as be fore, the present would merely be looked upon as a repeti• tion of the measure of last session, and not tend in the e!ightest degree to advance the pacification of the country. It is very true, and 1 do not shrink from the admission, that I do propose to lay on a land tax, and however it may eventually be received by the landlords of Ireland, there is no shutting our eyes to the truth, that such a measure is unavoidable; and now, while noticing this feature in our proceedings on this subject, I may be permitted to ob serve, that from the moment this admission was first made, a change came over the views of Irish gentlemen on the subject of tithes. I never, noon any political subject, remember so great a change as that which seemed to have been wrought in the minds of those gentlemen from the instant that that announcement was made. The de bates, which from that time forward took place upon the subject, were wholly altered in their tone.—(Hear, hear.) Antecedently to that part of the measure being known, the Irish Members breathed nothing but appro bation ; but ever since they have become exceedingly inge nious in discovering objections.—(Hear.) Before that discovery, it was agreed by every gentleman, that the present state of things could not be allowed to continue, and that such continuance would be in the highest degree dangerous to the happiness and safety of the country ; and gentlemen also agreed that the adoption of the present measure, minus the pa%ing clause, would be the best thing in the world, would remove all causes of discontent, and place things on a satisfactory footing; but now that the measure has been produced, we have had to encounter every sort of difference of opinion. I have never for a moment affected to say that we have not been throwing a burden upon the landlords of Ireland ; but, as I have on former occasions said, we had only to choose between two evils, and the alternative, which, from the nature of the case, became the more eligible, is one of which, after all, the landlords will have no reason to complain—it was ne cessary fur the peace of the country that the burden should be shifted to their shoulders; and I do trust that, for the better consolidation and centinuance of tranquil lity, they will submit to the burden with a good grace. I am aware that it has been urged that this measure is only of a temporary nature, and can have no extensive or per manent effect. Now the reply I have to make to that is, that the proposed measure has been brought forward as a remedy for a great present grievance; that it will now I have the t ffect of relieving the occupying tenants from the pressure of the acre srs accumulated during the past three years ; and it will also have the effect of relieving the tenants at will ftotn all their burdens; they will never have to undergo the grievance again. This, it must be confes,ed, is a great public benefit, and might have pro tected us from the censure of the Hon. Member for Derby shire, who accu•ed us of mixing a great deal of Toryism with all our measures, so much of Toryism that be could not give us the benefit of his support.' I rather think, that if those Members of this House who are in the habit of supporting Tory doctrines were con sulted on the subject, they would have very little diffi culty in saying that a great number• of your measures have in them but a very small spice of Toryism—too small to meet their views, or obtain their support. Of this I am quite sure, that none of our measures relat'ng to the Irish church would satisfy the expressed wish of those who profess Toryism. From the hour we came into office till the present moment, we have felt it to be our duty—l say that at all times, and certainly above all others, at the present time, we have felt it to be our duty—to bring forward such measures, as, while they tended gradually to improve the institutions of the coun try, did not, by too rapid a change, incur the hazard of disturbing the tranquillity of the country. The course which we marked out for ourselves when we met the present reformed Parliament for the first time, was that which I have now described, and the question which we bad to put to ourselves was this—whether we should proceed with those gradual improvements which every man who wished well to the country desired to see accomplished, or whether, by sudden and violent steps, taken at short in tervals, we should produce the most calamitous effects? We chose the former of these alernatives, and upon the principle thus adopted we are resolved to act, so long as we receive the confidence of Parliament and of the coun try. Si, long, Sir, as we continue to enjoy that confi dence, so long are we resolved to continue making the same improvements in the institutions of the country, anti in such manner as shall secure us against hazarding their stability, or putting in jeopardy the peace and good order of the community. Ido indulge the hope that, up to the present time, the course we have pursued has given satisfaction to the House and the country; and of this I can assure them, that whether it be so or otherwise, they will not find us inclined to adopt any other course. Our earnest wishes, and our fixed resolutions lead us to pro mote every safe and practical improvement, but we have no desire to have recourse to rash and dangerous experi ments --(Loud cheers.) Mr. RONAYNE described the measureof Government as a miserable expedient that would never answer its pur pose; it was trimly temporary, and could not he other wise than a failure. In answer to a question from Mr. LAMBERT, Lord ALTHORP said the landlords would have every right to recover the land tax from such tenants as owed their tithes. There certainly had not been any provision made for the case of tenants running away, but he had no reason to think that that class would prove very nume rous, and, at ad events, there would be no great diffi culty in making such an arrangement as would meet any difficulties of that nature. Mr. AGLIONBY said, that the House must be prepared to give compensation to the Irish landlords, ‘‘ hose property by this mea.ure they proposed to take away ; it was im possible that they could otherwise carry their resolution into effect. Not only were they thus embarrassing them . selves with the necessity of making this compensation, but they were creatiug a new source of animosity between the peasant and the landlord. It was impossible to look upon the measure otherwise than as a mere expedient, and it was at the same time impossible to look upon it otherwise than as a direct injustice and confiscation. When the tenant absconded in debt both to the landlord and to the parson, could Oleic be anything like justice in affixing upon the landlord the double loss by compelling him to make good the debt to the parson? Nothing, therefore, could be snore evident than that a compensation fund must be formed somewhere, and sure he was that it would be the height of injustice to seek it from the resources of the nation at large, and still greater injustice to make the Ca tholic landlord pay that with which Protestant property alone should be encumbered. In his judgment, the best source from which to derive the means of compensation would be the Protestant church property. Mr. WALKER agreed with the last speaker, that the measure of his Ithjesty's Government would afford nothing but temporary relief, and he hesitated not to add that it would lead to ultimate dissatisfaction. He was a Protest ant, but he fearlessly acknowledged that he was ashamed of the Protestant pastors of Ireland. The whole outcry about the preservation of tithes was raised on their behalf, and though a numerous body of laymen had endured ex tensive losses by the late occurrences in Ireland, there would not have been a voice raised on their behalf, were it not that the interests of the lay impropriators and of the clerical body were bound up together. There was no denying the fact that the Irish church was an extor tionate church.—(Cries of " Oh, oh.") Yes, be would re peat that it was nut only extortion, bat grievous jujus- :ice, to mate the lan , ford pay debts which he had never neurred. Mr. CHRISTMAS could not agree that the landlord should pay in every case where the occupying tenant held by lease; and as to what had been said respet ing the clergy demanding their six-and-fourpences and thirteen-and-tmpences, he must be permitted to observe that if they gave up those small sums, it would amount to giving up their whole income. He was aware that opinhms opposite to those which he held were advocated by gentlemen who professed the highest respect for the church, and who declared that they did not want to do anything with the church, but to take away its revenues.—(A laugh.) He begged the House to retnember that tithes were not a tax which could be iosposed or re moved at pleasure—that they did, on the contrary, con stitute a separate property; and if they were to be con sidered as separate property, with what consistency could lion. Members talk of extinction? Mr. M. OTERRALL said, that though, suppising the weight of the burden dill eventually fall upon the land lords, they ought not to complain. In all arrangements of that kind, where a great national benefit was u'itairied, they could not expect to accomplish their object without encountering some difficulties. Mr. GILLON made a few remarks, which, from the confusion in the House, were quite inaudible in the gslltry. Mr. BARRON rose amidst much noise, and said lie was ready to pay his proportion of the tax as a landlord, if it were for the benefit of the people.—(Hear.) Tois he considered as a temporary measure ; but lie hoped it would lead to a permanent land tax. Toe poor of Ireland had a right to maintenance and education out of the property of the church of Ireland. The church of Ireland and that of England were not in the same situation with regard to their property. The rights of the poor with respect to them were different in the two countries. Major MACNAMARA observed, that for the sake of preserving the peace of the country, he should willingly pay his portion of the tithes. The gallery was cleared for a division, when there ap peared— For the resolution Against it Majority The House resumed, and the report was ordeted to be brought up on Monday ruxt. EAST INDIA COMPANY. The report on the East India Company's Charter was brought up by Mr. C. Woon, and laid on the table. The resolutions were agreed to, and a Bill was ordered to be brought in founded upon them. TRIENNIAL PARLIAMENTS. Mr. WILKS said, though be was perfectly aware of the importance of this subject, still, as it was not urgent to press it forward, he would postpone his notice from Thursday next to the 28th of June. The other orders of the day were then disposed of, and the House adjourned at half-past one o'clock till Monday.

CARTLEDGE and Son, at Bulwell, together with those in the employ of Mr. HALL, of Basford, partook of a supper at Mr. HALL'S works, which was jointly given by Messrs. CARTLEDGE and Son and himself, to ce lebrate the highly successful and satisfactory application of Mr. HALL ' S patent steam engine, to Messrs. CARTLEDGE and Son's works, at Bulwell. The evening passed in t e greatest harmony and conviviality, and all present were highly gratified with the entertainment. And on the Monday following, the females employed by Messrs. CARTLEDGE and Son, were treated with tea, at Mr. WALKER'S, publican, in Bulwell, to celebrate the same event, and spent the evening in the most cheerful manner. —Nottingham Review. The accounts from Manchester, Yorkshire, Glasgow, Paisley, and all other manufacturing districts, continue most favourable ; and the industry of the country was never more completely employed than at the present moment. At Manchester, the warehouses are literally cleared of all their stocks of goods, a circumstance rarely experienced in this country. This is gratifying, particularly as we have been lately so annoyed by the absurd declaimers respecting the too rapid improvement in machinery, and the over production occasioned by the poor and industrious classes of society in England—that productive industry would bring serious calamity on the country, &c. THE HAY HARVEST.—The hay harvest is proceeding rapidly in this neighbourhood. Though on some lea fields, especially where the soil is dry, the pro duce is light, it is in general, especially in the meadows, abundant in quantity, and if the present fine weather con tinue, will doubtless be excellent in quality. Every kind of crop continues to look promising. We observe that the hay harvest has also commenced near Carlisle, Penritb, and Kendal. We observe by the newspapers, that in consequence of the late drought., the bay crops in the southern countries are in general very light, and that a deficiency is to be expected. Such is certainly not the case in this county.— Whitehaven Herald. On Sunday afternoon, as Mr. ARNOLD, baker, at Hove, was on the beach amusing himself by sending his dog into the water, the animal suddenly dived to the bottom, and brought up the body of a woman very decently dressed. She was quite dead, and had evidently not been in the water more than a day, but was much bruised and injured. Nineteen shillings and four pence halfpenny were found in her pocket. A shutter was procured, and the body removed to the Blockade house. An inquest was held the next morning at the Ship public- house, and a verdict of " Found drowned" returned. The body has not yet been recognised.-- Brighton Guardian. LOVE AND SUlClDE.—Yesterday an inquest was held at the Blue Anchor, Fenchurch-street, on the body of a fine young woman, aged 18, named MARGARET PERCIVAL. The deceased, who resided in the neighbour hood with her mother, lately quarrelled with a young man, named VINCENT, who paid his addresses to her. On Tuesday she was found in the water closet, groaning and tearing her hair, and calling out, " Oh, my poor dear VINCENT" Two papers, marked "poison," were found on the floor, and the deceased was conveyed to her bed, and medical attendance sent fur. She admitted having taken poison, and said she knew she was dying, and yet she entreated the landlady, Mrs. Jacoas, to curl her hair. She died in a short time. She had actually wiped the cup, in which she took the poison, with her fingers, so determined was she to effect her purpose. Vet diet---Temporary insanity. ROYAL INSTITUTION.
