A burlesque upon Richard the Third, with Wright as Richard, and Miss Emma Stanley as Lady Anne, was pro duced at this theatre on Monday. Wright's personation of the crooked-back tyrant was exquisitely ludicrous, and his imitations of Kean elicited roars of laughter. There were several good hits iu the course of the piece, but it israther too long. When judiciously curtailed, it will no doubt have a run.

NATIONAL LOAN FUND LIFE ASSUR ANCE SOCIETY, 26, COENHILL, LONDON. Capital X 500,000. Empowered by Act of Parliament. The many novel and varied advantages bestowed by this Institu tion, both in its life assurance and deferred annuity departments, par ticularly the power to borrow two-thirds of premiums without ex pense or forfeiture—the great reduction of rates on short policies — the option of selecting benefits and converting policies so as best to suit the interest or necessity of the policy-holder during life, as well as to afford the full benefit to his family at death, and annual division of profits, have already been so well appreciated by the public, that the Society's great success and growing prosperity enabled the Di rectors, at their General Meeting in May last, to add to each policy on the profit scale a bonus averaging fifty-five per cent. on the amount already invested ; and this bonus, according to an equitable scale, may either be paid in cash, or applied in reduction of future premiums EXAMPLES.

The New Year opens with more cheering prospects for the Tea Consumer, than for many previous seasons. War, rapine, and injus tice have given place to peace and friendship. The glories of the Celestial Empirt are no longer veiled in mystery to the Western Hemisphere. An extended field is openedlo the energies of the British merchant—we trust for successful enterprise. Ages yet to follow will admire the firmness which has successfully overcome the rooted preju dices of thousands of years ; and the ingenious millions who populate the vast territories of China, will hall the event that opens to their Industry the commercial freedom of the civilised world. One of the many advantages of peace over war to the community is best shown by reference to the comparative value of Tea in 1840 and 1844: Value of common Congou (exclusive of duty) in February 1840 2s. 9d. to 3s. and 3s. 4d. per 'lb. Value of common Congou (exclusive of duty) in February 1844 I Id. to Is. and Is. 2d. per lb. Making a difference of two hundred per cent., or thrice the value of Tea, in the time of war over the present rates. We recommend fa milies to pay for a Common Breakfast Tea, 3s. 4d. per lb. ; fur a strong full-bodied Congou, 3s. Bd. or 4s. per lb. ; for the finest Congou imported, ss. per lb. ; and for the most delicious Souchong, ss. ad. per lb. The two latter Teas are of very rare quality.

THE VERDICT. (From the Times.) DUBLIN, MONDAY, FEB. 12. The Chief Justice, Mr. Justice Burton, , and Mr. Justice Crampton took their seats on the bench this morning a few minutes after nine o'clock, at which hour the Court was crowded, but not inconveniently so, as a very large force of police was stationed at the main entrance to keep off the crowd, and clear the various passages leading to the Queen's Bench to prevent the admission of persons not duly authorised. The traversers arrived at an early hour. Mr. O'Connell, who was accompanied by his son Daniel and Mr. W. S. O'Brien, took his seat at the table of the Queen's Counsel. Mr. J. O'Connell appeared in his professional robes amongst the juniors, while the rest sat at the traver sers' bar. Mr. Justice CRAMPTON minutely detailed to his brother judges what took place on Saturday evening, subsequent to their leaving the Court, at half past five o'clock, and accounted for the difficulty which the jury had experienced respecting the first and second counts by observing that they contained, .five distinct issues, upon which there should be five distinct findings, and did not, there fore, admit of a general finding. Having briefly de scribed the nature of the issues, involved in the several counts, and pointed out in what respects they differed one from the other, his Lordship sug gested that the proper course to adopt would be to put these issues before the jury, in the distinct form in which he had now explained them. The jury were then called into Court; the sug gestion of his Lordship was acted on ; they retired, and returned at ten o'clock with their verdict, to the reception of which Mr. MooRE, Q.C., objected, on the ground that one of the jurors was described on the panel as " John Rigby," though he himself had declared that his name was " John Jason Rigby." The ATTORNEY-GENERAL observed, that Mr. Rigby had been sworn as " John Rigby," and that particular notice was made of the fact at the time by the Crown. A note having been taken of the objection, Mr. BOURNE, the Clerk of the Crown, read the verdict of Guilty generally against all the traversers excepting the Rev. Mr. Tierney, who was found Guilty upon two counts only. The following are the several counts of the indict ment, with the verdict of the jury, as affecting each traverser upon each count : FIRST AND SECOND COUNT. For unlawfully and seditiously conspiring to raise and create discontent and disaffection amongst the Queen's subjects, and to excite such subjects to hatred and contempt of, and to unlawful and sedi tious opposition. to the Government and Constitu tion ; and to stir up jealousies, hatred, and ill-will between different classes of her Majesty's sub jects ; and especially to promote amongst her Majesty's subjects in Ireland feelings of ill will and hostility against her Majesty's sub jects in other parts of the United Kingdom, especially in England, and to excite discontent and disaffection amongst divers'of her Majesty's subjects serving in the army; and to cause and aid in causing divers subjects unlawfully and seditiously to meet and assemble together in large numbers, at various times and at different places within Ireland, for the unlaw ful and seditious purpose ofobtaining, by means of the intimidation to be thereby caused, and by means of the exhibition and demonstration of great physical force at such meetings, changes and alterations in the Government, Laws, and Constitution, as by law established ; and to bring into hatred and disrepute the Courts by law established in Ireland for the ad ministration of justice, and to diminish the confidence of her Majesty's subjects in the administration of the law therein, with intent to induce her Majesty's sub jects to withdraw the adjudication of their differences with and claims upon each other from the cognisance of the courts of law, and subject the same to the judgment and determination of other tribunals to be constituted and contrived for that purpose. GUILTY—D. O'Connell, R. Barrett, and C. G. 8. For conspiring to bring into hatred and dis repute the tribunals by law established in Ireland for the administration of justice, and to diminish the con fidence of her Majesty's subjects in the administra tion of the law therein, with intent to induce the subjects to withdraw the adjudication of their dif ference with and claims upon each other from the cognizance of the tribunals by law established, and to submit the same to the judgment and determina tion of other tribunals to be constituted and contrived for that purpose. 9. For conspiring to bring into hatred and disre pute the tribunals by law established in Ireland for the administration of justice, to diminish the con fidence of her Majesty's subjects in Ireland in the administration of the law therein, and to assume anti usurp the prerogative of the Crov.n in the e.,tablish meat of courts for the administration of the law. 10. For conspiring to bring into hatred and dis repute the tribunals by law established in Ireland for the administration of justice, and to diminish the con fidence of her Majesty's subjects in Ireland in the ad ministration of the law therein. 11. For conspiring to cause and procure large numbers of persons to meet together in divers places and at divers times in Ireland, and by means of unlawful, seditious, and inflammatory speeches and addresses to be made ana delivered at the said several places on the said several times, and also by means of publishing and causing to be published to and amongst her Majesty's subjects, di vers unlawful and seditious writings and compositions to intimidate the Lords spiritual and temporal, and the Commons of the Parliament of the United Kingdom, and thereby to effect and bring about changes and al terations in the laws and constitution of this realm, as now by law established. For self and fellows, JAMES HAMILTCN. The verdict having been recorded— The CHIEF-JUSTICE thanked the jury for the pa tient attention they had bestowed for nearly a month upon this unprecedented case, admitted the loss and injury it must have been to them, regretted that the Court did not possess the power of granting them compensation (which the foreman in delivering the verdict applied for), and dismissed them. Mr. MooRE, on the part of the traversers, de manded a copy of the verdiot. The CHIEF JUSTICE directed that it should be fur nished, and the Clerk of the Crown immediately ad journed the Court to the first day of next term, when it will be in the power of the Crown to call for judg ment upon the traversers. Mr. O'Connell, accompanied by a juvenile mob of Repealers, soon after drove to the Corn Exchange, where a meeting of the Association will be held at two o'clock. _ _ The following address from the Hon. and Learned Gentleman appeared in the Freeman's Journal of this morning : " TO THE PEOPLE OF IRELAND. " Merrion-square, Feb. 11, 1844.

Among those who deserve to be honourably re corded for the persevering recklessness of their good - nature, the London tradesmen hol d a p rominent position. Their oc cupations render them pecul iarl y obn oxious to the supplica tions of the needy, the promises of the expectant, and the tricks of the fraudulent. And none of these various classes go away ungratified, even though not satisfied.

THE PREPARATIONS.—Orders have been issued from the office of the Commander of the Forces in Ireland, for the establishment of a military station at Tyrrell's-pass—the ' force to consist of 40 men. This is the first time since the rebellion of '9B that a soldier has been quartered in this re tired and peaceful village. THE " STATE" T R IALS.—In case a verdict should pass against the traversers, or any of them, will not the pub lic in general say that it was, like the Union, obtained by fraud? The whole tenor of the fighting Attorney-Ge neral'scoupled with proceedings, other no less remark able circumstances, will be sure to leave an impression so strong that the Government and the Executive will not be able to remove it. That strange circumstances are connected with the whole course of the proceedings is " a great fact." The fighting Crown prosecutorrpeace-breaker, declared, by way of creating - feeling, that he should be able to disclose the blackest conspiracy ever known, and has done no such thing —From a Correspondent. On Saturday, the 10th inst., a general assembly of' the Royal Academicians was held at the Royal Academy of Arts, in Trafalgar-square, when John Prescott Knight, Esq., was elected an Academician, in the room of Henry Thomson, Esq., deceased. By far the best dramatic version of Dickens's Christmas Carol that we have yet seen was produced at this theatre on Monday. The scenic illustrations are really beautiful, and, considering the small size of the stage of this bijou of a thea tre, the effect was perfectly wonderful. The vision of the past was illustrated by a beautiful moving diorama, which passes before- the eyes of the astonished Scrooge, and repre sents the scenes of his youth. As the diorama moves, and with it, as it were, are seen in the scenes of transparencies the stories that delighted his youthful days, Valentine and Orson, Robinson Crusoe, &c. The diorama has passed, and in a miserable room we see him a lonely school boy—his sister fetches him from school, and as the scenes of the past are represented before him, the old man's heart warms towards his kindred. This scene was excellently , acted by Bennett as Scrooge. Nothing could be more natu ral than his joy on recognising the scenes of his boyhood. Then comes the joyous ball at Mr. Fizziwig's, and the part ing. with Ellen Williams. This little scene was beautifully given by Miss Montgomery, who, as Ellen Williams, made quite a feature of a very insignificant part. She was much and very deservedly applauded. The view of the Post-office. with St. Paul's in the distance, in the second scene, was one of the most beautiful specimens of scene painting ever seen, and altogether the piece has been got up in a most careful and effective manner. It was excellently acted throughout. Bennett's Scrooge was a very powerful piece of acting, and Attwood, as Bob Crachit, was excessively quaint and amus ing. Roberts, the most gentlemanly of actors, was admirable as Fred. Pleasant. This piece is a decided hit, and Will, we doubt not, draw crowded houses every night. PARLIAMENTARY DIVISIONS.

PROPOSED TEMPERANCE HALL AND MECHA NICS' ITSTITUTE IN MARYLEBONE.—On MOllday a numerous public meeting of the inhabitants of Marylebone was held at the Literary Institution, Portman-square, Mr. Benjamin Bond CablAl, F.R.S., presiding, supported by the Rev. J. Burns, Mr. J. S. Buckingham, Dr. M. Syder, Mr. Dunlop, F.G.S., and other gentlemen connected with the locality, for the purpose of forming a Temperance Hal, Mechanics' Institute, and School, with reading-rooms, for the working classes of Marylebone and Paddington. The Report of the Provisional Committee, consisting, amongst others, of Sir B. Hall, Bart., ➢I.P., Rev. W. Horsfell, Captain Street, and Dr. Oxley, announced that the sum of 240/. had already been subscribed for the formation of the Institution, which was situated on the west side of Great Carlisle-street, Portman market, and lately used as a malt house. These premises had been taken by the Committee for a term of 78 years, and the establishment of the Institution was found to become needful, in consequence of the number of families who had embraced the temperance principle, and owing to the want, in the particular district, of proper places for the moral and mental improvement of a large industrial population. The Report, on the motion of the Rev. Mr. Burns, seconded. by Mr. Theodore Williams, having been passed by acclamation, together with resolutions in furtherance of the object, the meeting separated after the customary courtesies to the Chair man and Comrnitte APPOINTMENTS, Lieutenants, additional, to the Penelope—J.

FEn. 11.—For some time after the adjournment of the Court last night, or rather this morning, crowds con tinued in the neighbourhood; but their demeanour was most peaceable, although deep anxiety was manifest upon every countenance. During this forenoon there were considerable crowds in the vicinity of the Court of Queen's Bench. The doors of the court-yard were closed, and parties of police were stationed in various places around the building. Previous to the adjournment of the Court this morning, Mr. Justice (Campton mentioned to the jury that the best apf,rtment in the Court should be assigned for their accom mvallltion until Monday morning. It was supposed that the jurors would be conveyed to a parish church adjacent to the Court: but this arrangement was abandoned, and a clergy man of the Established Church (the jury being all Protes tants) officiated this forenoon in the room allotted to the jury. Yesterday afternoon and last night there was a very need less parade of military. The 34th Foot were under arms for some time in the Castle-yard, and the gates to the passage from Castle-street to Ship-street were closed. Much cl•,il'ereuce of opinion prevails as to the course to be I:IN.:el by the Crown in regard to applying for judgment agahist the traversen. It is said that the Crown Counsel themselves are not quite clear upon the point as to their right to obtain immediate judgment upon sentence. :sir. O'Connell visited the Corn Exchange about two o'clock f . and seemed in excellent health and spirits. It is stated that Mr. O'Connell intends to start for London at once, to be in I; is ;,lace in the House of Commons on Tuesday, when Lord John Russell's motion is to come on. COUNTY OF TIPPERARY ELECTION. Mr. Nicholas Maher was returned yesterday - without a contest. He is to attend the meeting of the Repeal Associa tion to-morrow. ADDRESS FROM MR. O'CONNELL TO THE ROMAN CATHOLIC PRELATES. The following address has been forwarded to the Roman Catholic Bishops by Mr. O'Connell, invoking their assistance to preserve the peace at this juncture : " TO THE CATHOLIC PRELATES OF IRELAND. " Most Reverend and Venerated Lords,—lt is with some difficulty, and after much consideration, that I take the li berty of addresssing you, with a respectful confidence that, although you may not approve of my so doing, you will kindly appreciate the motives which prompt me to trespass on your attention. You may deem my anxiety excessive, but you will rea dily forgive that excess, which arises from my extreme de sire to prevent the slightest violence or breach of the peace in any part of the country. . . . . " I have not the presumption to think that anything ema nating from me would be needed to stimulate the active zeal of your Lordships, and the revered clergy of the Irish people, for the preservation of the most perfect public order and peace. Those who have the advantage of knowing you are familiar with the fact, that the tranquillity of this country is in a para mount sense attributable to your unbought, successful, and most pious endeavours to cause all the population of most dis tricts, and as many of the Kipple as ppsoible in every district, tobe obedient to the law, and dutifully submissive to temporal authority. " What I respectfully submit to your Lordships is merely this—that perhaps it may be useful, at this crisis, to take measures for ensuring, on the part. of the people, with regard to the result of the Crown prosecutions, now ascertained, a continuance of the same loyal, quiet, and peaceable demeanour which has characterised them up to this period, and in a marked manner since the trials commenced. . . " You agree with me, my Lords, en the momentous im portance of this object, and you feel, as I do, that popular violence or outbreak of any kind would be alike criminal and calamitous. I know that every exertion fur maintain- ink; the public peace will have your Lordships' sanction and powerful assistance. But that assistance is probably the more necessary now, inasmuch as the State prosecutions have had a sectarian colour given to them by the conduct of the prosecutors, in striking all the Catholics from the balloted iury list, in addition to the fact of the dropping out from the jury panel at large no less than thirty-five Catholics. It is to prevent any irritation springing from this violation of the religions feelings of the people of Ireland, that I, with profound humility, intimate to your Lordships the propriety of suggesting to the clergy of every parish—and your suggestions will of course be acted upon zealously and uni versally—to take care that neither vindictive nor angry feel ing shall be exhibited by their flocks as a consequence of this wrong—to stifle every expression of sorrow and resentment in the recollection that prudence as well as duty, personal safety as well as religion, imperatively demand that every district in Ireland should persevere in maintaining the most perfe - ct order and imperturbable tranquillity. " If there be presumption in this address, it is concealed from my own view ; and if that character should be supposed to attach to it, my regret would be sincere indeed. My pur pose is to employ the most influential and efficient medium for enforcing on the public mind, that if this crisis should pass over, at I feel confident that it will, without riot, violence, tumult, or outrage of any kind, the success of the efforts for repeal will be rendered certain, and the attainment of a do mestic Legislature secured. " I have the honour to be, most Reverend and Venerated Lords, your most faithful, obedient, humble servant, " DANIEL O'CONNELL. " Merrion-square, Dublin, Feb. 11, 1844." GAMING (Qui Tam) A CTIONS.—This Bill has passed the Lords, and stands for second reading in the Commons. It is to discontinue certain actions under statutes for the prevention of excessive gaming, and to prevent for the future the bringing of such actions. It is provided that proceedings commenced by common informers for penalties incurred by playing at or betting on certain games shall be discontinued on application to the Court or a Judge. In future no action to be brought for playing or betting at the games mentioned without the consent of the Attorney-General. The following games are specified :—" Horse-races, foot-races, boat-races, regattas, rowing -matches, sailing-matches, coursing -matches, fencing-matches, golf; wrestling-matches, cricket, tennis, fives, racquets, bowls, quoits, curling, and puttingstone." Mr. Milner Gibson has given notice of a motionlon horse-races. TRAIT OF A DUELLIST.—Lord Camelford com manded the Favourite sloop of war, and Commodore Fahie the ship Perdrix, Mr. Peterson holding the rank of First Lieutenant on the board the last-named vessel. Commodore Fahie had left Antigua a short time before, to take tempo rary command of the fleet, then anchored before St. Kitt's; and during his absence Lieutenant Peterson was of course left in command of the Perdrix. * * * * Lord Camel ford and Lieutenant Peterson were unhappily at variance ; and perhaps to mortify his rival, Lord Camelford ordered Mr. Peterson to take the watch on the very evening that a gay ball was to be given at Black Point to the naval officers Unfortunately, Lieutenant Peterson entertained the idea that as he was in command of the ship Perdrix, in the absence of Commodore Fahie, he was superior officer to Lord Camelford, who only commanded a sloop; and in c msequence of this false impression, he positively refused ' to obey his Lordship's orders. The disastrous evening ap proached, and the Lieutenant retired to his quarters above the capstan-house, in order to dress for the festive party. Arming himself with a pair of loaded pistols, and telling his boat's crew to attend him, Lord Camelford quitted his retire ment, and stationed himself directly between the capstan house and the guard-house (now called the Commissioner's house), and there waited the approach of Mr. Peterson, whom he had already summoned to attend him. Upon the unfor tunate young officer making his appearance, accompanied b y some of his friends, his Lord s hip aga i n comman d e d him to take charge of the watch for the eve ning : the command was again refused; when taking one of the pistols from his bosom, Lord Camelford immediately fired, and the ball passing through the breast of the brave but inconsiderate Lieutenant, he fell a corpse upon the ground, the deadly stream welling from the wound, and stain ing, as it flowed, the gay ball-dress which he wore. No sooner did the well-aimed weapon do its work, than drawing the other from its resting-place, his Lordship turned to the Second Lieutenant of the Perdrix, and pointing it at him, asked if he would obey his orders, or meet the same punish ment as Mr. Peterson? Life is sweet! the second in com mand saw his friend stretched at his feet with the red blood gurgling around him, and, fearing the same fate, he obeyed Lord Camelford, and took the watch.—Antigua and the Antiguans. SALMON FISHING AT DOON.— The fishing of salmon commenced on Thursday last. The number taken at the Doon-foot greatly exceeded that of former years, at least for many seasons past. Thirty-three clean fish were hauled, averaging between seven and nine pounds each. Since then six or seven have been caught daily. The result is satisfac tory, as showing the beneficial effect of the protection af forded to the riven—Ayr Observer. We stop the press to announce that Captain Grover has just received intelligence from Dr. Wolff, at Erzeroum, corroborated by six individuals, that Colonel Stoddart and Captain Cono live ; and therefore greater hope than here tofore may be entertained that our countrymen, towards whom so much interest has been felt, will be restored to their friends. — Literary Gazette. MAGISTRATES' CLERKS.—A few individuals who show an apparent regard for public economy, wish to put 3lagistrates' Clerks upon a fixed salary, and the general fees raised to be accounted for to a public accotmt, the County Treasurer's fund probably. There are obvious rea swis against such a system, a system which would not be creditable either to justices or clerks.—From a Correspondent, PI • C . 41 • ‘• ki IMPERIAL PARLIAMEXT;LLIL---- • Their Lordsh T io L s Tm m p e k lvoisiNon. lotuh,cTelAopperTo.

EARL DUNDONALD'S INVENTIONS. Lcrd BROUGHAM gave notice that he should on Thurs i day next bring under the consideration of their Lordship the inventions of a Noble Friend of his, Earl Dundonald. The Noble Earl wished to represent to the House the great expense he had been put to in p er f ect i ng t h ese inventions. OATHS OF ROMAN CATHOLICS. Lord STOURTON gave notice that on the day most conve nient to their Lordships, either on Friday or Monday, he pur posed to bring hefore their Lordships the construction of the Roman Catholic oath, and he stated to their Lordships what he conceived to be the fair and honest meaning and construction of that oath. He trusted he should not trespass too long on their Lordships' time if he was permitted for a few moments to call their attention to some circumstances connected with that oath. He did not at all mean to try to influence or act upon that r opinion of their Lordships; but still he should say that he thought there was quite enough to warrant him in bringing the subject before the House; and he therefore on Friday should call the attention of their Lordships to the mode in which the Roman Catholic oaths were constructed. The Bishop of EXETER presented a petition, praying that the House would adopt such means as would secure the spiritual education of the humbler classes. Lord BEAUMONT wished to know when it would suit the Government to bring forward the measure relating to the (sou -1 solidation of the turnpike -trusts in England ? The Duke of WELLING TON said that the matter would be brought before the House either on Thursday or Friday. Earl FORTESCUE presented a petition-from Belfast, corn- • plaining of the present state of Ireland. The petitioners stated that they apprehended civil war; , and that though the use of power might be effectual for the s suppression of disorder, it could not remove discdiftent. They als7 complaired of the inefficient state of the represen tation of Ireland, as compared with that of England, In conclusion, they prayed the House to adopt such measures as were best calculated to avert the dangers now impending, and to prevent the recurrence thereof. THE STATE OF IRELAND. The Marquis of NORMANBY, on rising to call the atten tion of the House to this subject, said—There were subjects of such paramount and urgent importance in the minds of a speaker, that they completely banished all considerations of self. It was this alone which had induced him to encounter the diffi culty, and to incur the responsibility, of bringing before their i Lordships a subject of such great magnitude as that of which he had given notice. He entertained feelings of such inten _ city as to the present danger and as to the- future prospects of Ireland, that whatever other disqualification he might hue, he should at least address them with that earnestness which was, he believed, the best passport to their Lordships' attention. But he had another inducement to address their Lordships on this subject; that even now, in the midst of all the excite ment and agitation—to which he was known to be opposed-- he daily received proofs from different parts of the country of the kindly recollection retained by a kind-hearted people of one whom they truly believed to have had their interest at heart. No one would deny that the present state of that country imperiously called for the i mme di a t e attent i on of Par liament.—( Hear. ) One year since there was an agitation in that country which the moderate in Ireland regarded with disfavour, and in this country was opposed with a unanimity almost unparalleled. It was headed by an individual who, whatever might be his claims to the gratitude of posterity, had rendered himself, by many of his proceeding', dis tasteful to the large majority in this country. What wks the state of things now ? The repeal of the union was not one degree less impracticable, but men's minds were diverted from that simple issue to the canvassing freely and the criticising unfavourably much of the conduct of her Ma jesty's Government. In the year 1829, when introducing the Roman Catholic Relief Bill, the present Prime Minister, in alluding to the state of Ireland, said that 7,000,000 of Ca tholi-s were united to a man. He was far from believing that they were united on this subject, though they appeared to be united against her Majesty's Government.—( Hear.) They were not more favourable to repeal, but their condition was such that he was justified in calling upon their Lordships for inquiry into the subject. With reference to this he need only allude to the petition which had just been presented by his Noble Friend from certain Protestants in Belfast. lie had reason to believe that the feeling there expressed was -a growing one, that it extended to many of the leading Protestants in Ireland, and thii result was owing greatly to the manner in which the question had been treated. He was about to move a rest lution, of which it might be said, that in all the principles contained in it her Majesty's Government entirely concurred. He candidly avowed that that was not the view with which be moved the resolution.—( Hear, from the Duke of Wellington.) The principles professed in the resolution were principles which the Noble Lords opposite unscrupulously opposed when they were not in power, though it was true that they paid some lip hornaze to them at the moment of their accession to office. But were there no other proofs but that petition of the necessity of inquiry into this subject? Another Noble Friend of his had presented another petition, signed by the same class of persons, to the same effect. He was sure that nothing but an imperious sense of duty could have induced the first sub ject in Ireland—the Duke of Leinster—to have taken the chair at the meeting at which this petition was agreed to. There was also the letter, which they must have seen, of a Noble Lord much opposed to the leader of the Repeal movement—the Earl of Shrewsbury. All these things proved the necessity of an inquiry into the conduct of the Government. He felt serious alarm at the state of Ireland ; but trusted that peace would still be preserved. He then proceeded to the repeal agita tion. When that agitation first became formidable, two courses were open to the Government, by following up either of which with perseverance, they would! have led to sepa rate advantages —( Hear, hear, hear.) They might have interfered at first by proclamation to , ut down these meetings. If this course was to be taken ; ards—if it was resolved that it should be taken—it would ave l been . the most straightforward and most manly course to have taken it at once. More than this he would- say, that if the Government had evidence enough to establish a charge of sedition, it was their bounden duty to have interfered.—( Hear, hear.) tut by the course they did take, though the advantages were con tingent, the evils were immediate. From the violence of some of their declarations at the time, he certainly inferred that they wished to strike but dared not. The best chance of the success of their policy was that their vigorous acts should be accompanied by remedial measures. Common prudence should have dictated to them, that if no rigour was to be shown, need less irritation should have been avoided. But what did they do ? They took that most senseless step of dismissing the Irish magistrates. With this one exception, they appeared determined to persevere in what some of their friends called the do-nothing policy. But just when they seemed on the point of reaping the fruits of forbearance, when the agitation would either have died out, or, passing a certain point, would have taken another form, at that moment they altered their course, and stepped in, and oceeded by proclamation against these meetings, thus giving one section of their own party not only a triumph over the majo. rity of the people but a triumph over themselves.—(Cheers.) The Noble L -rd Cheered, but it must be recollected that that was not a new view of the subject. He was not generally inclined to attribute to any party, particularly to persons in office, ar ticles which appeared in periodical publications. But in the month of September last, there certainly did appear an article in a periodical publication which, if he were not much mistaken (and he had studied the style), was the production of an old friend of his (the Noble Marquis here turned towards the Marquis of Clanricarde) than whom no one was better acquainted with Ireland. The article he alluded to was in the Quarterly Re view. —(Ministerial cheers.) It must be remembered that the opinions there stated were not his. (The Noble Marquis here read a passage from the Quarterly Review of September last, in which it was stated the meetings would wear themselves out, and that the Fabian policy would at length defeat them; and that the mischief that would result from the opposite course would be incalculable.) He (the Marquis of Normanby) had no hesitation in saying that he agreed with these sentiments. But the Government had taken a different course— they issued their proclamation to prevent the meeting at Clon tart ; and before coming to that part of the subject, he wished to know whether any Noble Lord had ever heard one single person in private conversation defend the conduct of the Go vernment in that case—whether they had ever heard of so much rashness, after so much vacillation, exhibited by any Govern ment? If it had not been for the active interference of those from whom the Govornment had no right to expect support, what would have been the consequence?—( Hear, hear, from the Duke of Wellington.) He should like to hear some explanation of the matter. If it was defended in that House, it would be the first time that it was defended in any quarter.— ( Hear, hear, from the Duke of Wellington, and ether Noble • Lords oni the Ministeral benches.) Noble Lords cheered him, but he was sure he would not hear from them such taunts as were used against the parties who had so interfered—taunts of cowardice—because they had obeyed the law. He was sure he would not hear such a defence, and he hoped that Noble Lords opposite who cheered would put their explanation in a more intelligible shape. He would not trouble the House at any length about his opinions respecting repeal, because he had stated those opinions already as strongly as any of their Lordships, and that too not within that House, but face to face with a portion of the Irish people, who had previously advocated repeal. In the year 1836, an address had been presented to him, when in the south of Ire land, from one of the Ridings of the county of Cork, in which it was stated that they had advocated the doctrine of repeal, but had given it up in consequence of the measures they expected from the Government. He, on that occasion, stated his sincere opinion, that the repeal was not for the benefit of Ire land, and that his sincerity in that opinion was in proportion to his love for Ireland. The people stated to him on that occasion that all they asked was equality with the British people, and a reciprocity of rights and principles. With less, they said, they could not be content, and with less, he said, they should not be content. He thought that the present condition of the sister nation was such as to require all the benefits which could be .4grived from progressive legislation ; but it must have progressi* legislation, it could not be acquired by a re peal of the union. He should still say, notwithstanding that opinion, that the question of the repeal of the union was one which was open to discussion; for, although injurious as its consummation might be to the kingdom, yet it was only the restoration of an Act which existed many years ago, and which Act when it was repealed was opposed by many of the most eminent of both countries, amongst whom was the re spected late Lord Holland. He therefore denied the right to impute to the Irish people a spirit of " wild " enthusiasm, when they sought to repeal an Act which had been opposed by such men as those to whom he just now alluded, and the more particularly so when the machinery by . which this Act was carried was such as not to bear investigation or to meet the daylight, and had been is its origin Opposed by the leading men of the country. In repeating what lie said in the year 1836, with respect to his opinion of repealing the union, he was alone actuated by the most sincere love of Ireland and the. Irish people. He most certainly must dissent from the prin ciple which the present Ministry seemed to involve in the last speech from the throne, namely, that they were, even in the slightest degree, bound to abide by a declaration made in a former reign. What, he would ask, was the intent of a dissolution of Parliament, but to take the sense of the people. and therefore how was a new Parliament to be held responsible for the declarations made in a previous one ?—( Hear, hear.) In seven years after the declaration. of the union with Scotland, the Duke of Argyle waited in per son upon her Majesty, anti said that to such an extent baudndis content now existed, that the nation must consider the on, way to repress the agitation—which rt. e grievances of the dissolved. He (the Earl of Normanby)theoredbest used g persevering attempts country. There might be such disaffection by a denial of Justice.— (Hear,to create turbulence a Lordships go back, let them fieshen their Lordships—was to apply is o re t zed o y es t hear.) Let their thought ion moob t h d a e t p ay --(Heart hear.)- I,' h were calculated to embitter the re medies refuse w a stringentnd sif they measures knew suggested —no phrases lii -h and provoke them to disaffection? Why, feelings of the the Noble and Learned Lord on the Woolsack, whom however, he admitted, from the kindliness of his nature was incapable up their recollection n % of a 'peisevering effort to anoy, so as to excite—but had not his Noble and Learned Friend, if so he might call him, un happily used a phrase, in speaking of the Irish, which had sunk deep into their minds? If they condemned so strongly the application of the word " Saxon" to the English, surely they .
