ODE, IN COMMEMORATION OF HER lALCIESTI"S BIRTH-D.IY, 1817. Written, by request, fur the A UxtLIA ItY flarEvouNi Soo ETY, BY EDMUND L. SWIFT, ESQ. And recited by the Iter.UltOME 'ALLEY, A.B. at the Merlin at the Hanurer-square Roams, Saturday, May 17, 1617. Is there of sweetest strain, A sound, yet lingering on the shell, . That loves amid the chorls to dwell; And this day opens not its charmed slumbers Now leapeth from the loosening chain The music of its wakened numbers; While the proud theme and descant high Of CHARLOTTE'S name inspire the grateful minstrelsy! Of all thy Children, lovely May! • Who, their amaranth chaplets wreathing, Move onward in their fair array. While softest gales around and sweetest airs are breathing, Most dear, most gracious, comes the morn, Which thus our faithful rows adorn; And brightly its auspicious sun, When from its springing orient viewed, Beams on the early orison, That aged lips prefer and infant gratitude. And as thy rapid wings, impearling !Oh's emerald bosom, drop the lucid shower, ' Hither, fair daughter of the May ! Their laden plumage furling, ntitithe hind virtuonf each plant and cower, From mountain and from dale, from rivulet and bower:— And on this welcome day, Around the regal Matron's head • Hygeia's balmy influence shed! With all of charmed potency, That dwells in Nature's treasury, The anguished hour assuage Of Her, who watched, with pitying eye, O'er orphaned youth and widowed age, Upon their lonely pilgrimage Anti shall not the full prayer, Which up to licaven both bear The gracious record of our Cummo rTE'S name— Oh, OA it not he heard, To speak that name revered, And mingle with her Island's dearest fame ? Enough of war's high theme .—silent are now The battle-shout, the triumph-song: More dearly to this day belong The soft calm breathings of the grateful vow . From Sorrow's couch ascending, In tears and blessings blending, The prayer of rescued misery shall arise, And shrine our CHARLOTTE'S virtue in the skies.

The Bill had been before the public two years, and the clause objected to. had been seen by parties ; none of whom had objected to it hithetto. It was copied from one in the Mary-le-bone Moors' Bates Bill. This was a public Bill, as the Commis sioners were to act for the public interests. The Honourable Member might have attended the Committee. No Bill bad gone through so many ordeals as this had in all its stages.— The Commissioners could not fulfil the objects oi their ap pointment without this clause. • The i,ill was read a second time, and the Amendments in the Committee agreed to, and ordered to be epgrossed.

Different estimates of the expense of re building had been made out from 5 to 1.5,0001. An estimate at F1,50C1. had been fur re-building a large church. The London Duck Company, ;tires said, were to give i,oool. but only in the event of re-building. He should oppose the second reading. Mr. ROSE supported the Bill.

Mr. SUMNER observed, that if this were a public mea sure, be should not object to delay; hut this was a private measure. .• Mr. C. WYNN said, that it was against the general spirit of accommodation in the House to object to a short .delay on a Private Bill. Gentlemen might have brought in this Bill that night, hut be thought it unhandsome in the absence of its promoters. The SPEAKER remarked, that the usual 'practice of the House, in Private Bilk, was to take a day that suited the con. venience of all parties.

Evety facility 3he would affirm, given for re gistering freeitolders. Nay, more courts were held for that purpose a t Linteri'k than in A ny other parts of Ireland. He moved that the Petition be brought up. JOHII NEWPORT thought the only mode t/ be adopted was to refer the Petition, togetLer with the Petition he had presented on the 24th gat April, to a Committee, who should extonine into the facts, and report. Let the records of the Court be fairly examined, and the ac►ual occur rences be &vita fide expoied_ Elc, too, had affida vits Which stated, that the Magistrates had refused to register certain freeholders, unless they pledged themselves to vote for the Right Hon. Gentle man.—(Col. Vereker.)-11e therefore moved, as an amendment, that both Petitions be referred to a Committee. Colonel VEReKen had no hesitation to second the amendinent. The only object of th o s e f rom whom the Right Hon. Baronet had presented a Petition, was to obtain a revolution in the Magi stracy.—(A laugh.)—Thare was a system mpg', nixed and ncted upon for getting rid of the Magi stracy of Limerick.
