Stu,—The remorkable occurrence of the two chief supporters of the Roman Catholic Claims in the Irish Parliament having been killed, in the year 1798, by the rebels, certainly is well worthy of notice ; but you omitted to state one circum stance that seems peculiarly to mark the death of Lord O'NEILL. It is, that he was stabbed by his park-keeper, formerly a, domestic in the family, to whom he bad been a kind and indulgent master, and whom many acts of disinterested benevolence ought to have bound to his Lordship by indis soluble ties of gratitude. The pages of the. Gen tleman's Magazine record this deed, perpetrated by ungrateful bigotry; but there are many living witnesses of it. It is not always fair to judge of the whole by a part of a large body of men, but have we not had a too fatal experience to prove to us, that the individual, in this instance, did in truth only shoe; the characteristic spirit of all PAPISTS. We must beware of such men, and I trust you will permit me tp offer a just tribute of respectful gra- • tirade for your late manly and energetic appeals to the Protestants, ,to stand forward in support of those privileges which are the only bulwark against the cruelties inflicted by superstitious zeal, _ _ a recurrence of the horrors of the reign of Queen MA R Y. That your exertions in the canse'of the Esta blished Church may be 'successful, must be the sincere and fervent prayer at every true disciple of tl4 meek and humble Saviour of mankind, as well as of Your obliged Reader, 9th Alay, 1517.

The House proceeded iu appeals.—Sir Edward Owen's. Divorce Bill war• read A third time anti passed.--Bailey's Divorce bill was read a second time. EXTENTS IN AID. The Duke of, BEAUFORT • presented a Petition from Bristol, complaining of the injurious conse quences to commerce of the practice of issuing Extents in Aid, and stating an instance in whicli it had been highly prejudicial. The Earl of LAUDEIWALS observed, that the great evil of extents in aid arose from the practice of persons employed in the collection of the re. venue being partners in country banks, who thus availing themselves of being debtors to the Crown, send out extents in aid against their debtors, to the great injury of the' .other creditors of those debtors. • , 'Ube Earl of LlVEttroOL. agreed, that a great evil arose front this practice, and in connutotenCet, of it, ever since he had had the mu nagement of the Treasury, he had invariably made it a rule that no person should be appointed to any situation connected with the collection of the revenue, with ,whom there .was not an express understanding beforehand, that he was not, nor would be con .cerned in any Country Bank ; of course this could not apply to those who were previously in those situations, but he was perfectly ready to agree to an Act of Parliament to prevent persons in future employed in the collection of the revenue, from being concerned in Banks. The Earl of RossLYN observed, that the evil did not rest here, as, if the Collectors merely depo , sited any part of the public money in u Bank, the . bankers, according to the prevailing practice, be' came debtora of the Crown, anti . coult, sue out Ltix tents in Aid against their debtors, by Which the other creditors of such debtors were frequently precluded from recovering a farthing of their de!. 'monde. This practice led to very serious mischief, and he trusted some remedy would he applied. The LORD CHANCELLOR said, the subject was under consideration where it was best understood, namely, by the Barons of the Exchequer. The Petition was ordered to lie on the Table, POOR LAWS. 'The Earl of 141V13111 4 40L rose to mbve for a Cottimittee on the Poor Laws. His Lordship ob• ierved, he had refrained from making the motion at an earlier period, because the subject had been taken up in the House of Commons, by the ap pointment there of a Committee to investigate and he was desirous of first ascertaining whether that examination was likely to lead to any prat• tical result. The subject, however, WAS of the greatest, importance, and tidier with a view to any measure that might be devised by their Lordships to remedy the evils that existed, or to any Thu that. might be sent up Irons the Commons, it would be highly desirable that all the information possible should be colleCted, and that the subject should be examined and investigated where it could best be considered, in a Committee. It was a question which had nothing' fo do aitlt party or political feeling, but was undoubtedly a general qttestion of the greatest moment. He admitted there were great difficui, ties with regard to the retnedies fur the evils that resulted from the Poor Laws, that system ot Laws had existed for between two and three hundred years, and had become so interwoven with the habits and prejudices of the country, that the dif• ficulties were greatly increased, as measures which when these Laws were first introduced might have , been sate and beneficial, Were now itw practicable, and men' of seuse and informa. tion who bad formed schemes for which' much fight be said, foupd, when they wile to be practically estimated, that t hey could not be carried into effect. There were, however, in that 1-louse as many individuals Its . could be found in any other assembly, in proportion to the num bers, who Were perfectly well acquainted with the details of the practice of the Poor Laws and by means of a Commitee, which several. Noble Lords had promised regularly to attend, tr giCat hotly of highly useful information upon the sub ject might be collected, and practical remedies suggested, Widell might have a great effeet'in ro.t. medying the evils that now existed,' He did not mean now to enter into any discussion or the sub ject, ns he thought it would be much better in every point of view to wait the result of the h t . boars tetbe Committee, His Lordsbip con eluded by moving for the appointtnent of a Char-. mittee. Lord ST.:Jon N entirely approved of the motion, and signified hi 3 readiness to assist 41 the proposed estlgation. Lord Ilot.t.ANn also expressed his approbati o n, observing, that it the evils , that now resulted from the Poor Laws could be done away, the Noble Earl would confer the greatest possible boon upon the cOuntry. At present they operated to en courage idleness and vice, by discouraging in dustry and labour. The Committee was Ordered.—to cnnsst of ell the Lords who had been present this Session, and to meet on Monday at twelve o'clock. READING GAOL.. Lord HOLLAND referred to some questions sent to the Secretary of State for the Home Depart. ment, by the visiting Magistrates at Reading, livid the answers of the Noble Viscount respecting per sons confined thete under the Habeas Corpus Sus pension, on suspicion of treasonable practices. He wished to know (the Noble Secretary of State being absent) whether there was any objectitin to lay these questions and aUS wcrs before the House, it it was correctly stated that the correspoudeuce
