LONDON, WEDNESDAY, FE8.24.
Lv the House of Lords yesterday the royal assent
was given by commission to several bills. On the
question of the third reading of the Destitute Person
(Ireland) Rill, Lord BROUGHAM again asseverated Ns
objections to the measure, as one calculated to WA
the Irish people to look to assistance from the govern-
ment, rather than rely on the exercise of their ova
exertions to support themselves. The Millais d
LONDONDERRY defended the conduct of the Irish
proprietors, so often run down by the noble aid
learned lord, who it might be admitted perhaps weft
too apt to follow the example of other ashy
lords, who lived for a portion of the year in Auk
amusing themselves with boar-hunting and Mk
sports. Lord BROUGHAM denied that he bell
ever run down Irish landlords, or boars : he was ad
addicted to the latter sport out of England. Led
BEAUSIONT urged upon the government that the ocly
remedy for the evils existing in Ireland would be ea
extensive system of emigration. The bill was thin
read a third time and passed.
