PARTY PROCESSIONS (IRELAND) BILL.
The Marquis of LANSDOWNE moved the order of the
day lee the third reedlag of this bill.
The Earl of ELLENBOROUGH mond an amendment

The LORD CHANCELLOR objeeted to the proposed

Len STANLEY objected to the wording of the ball as
MOM ambiguous and calculated 1) mislead the magistrates.
Lord CAMPBELL raid that the bill was verbatim et
diterofin the mime as had bees introduced by the noble lord
himself when he was Secretary for Inland, and which had
lima the law of the land for many a hag year.
The asseadment was this withdrawn.
Len BROUGHAM was about to eddy= • proposition to
the arable and illustrious duke (of Welliegton) with reference
M the amendment of which he tad given notice,namely, dist
so persons should be allowed to carry arms In Ireland
but for • lawful pontos-. He thought the amendment
quite right, hat it ought to De made the subject of a upstate
bill, and is should then bare his support. The noble duke
was perhaps aware that it was iMpartent the bill should pass
Won the 17th Inst., • day on which many processions were
likely to take place.
The Duke of WELLINGTON, in reference to the clause
of which be had gives notice, ems, " And for the more effec-
tual prevention of all assemblages of persons in Inland,
=arias, wearing, or having amongst them or any of them
any fire-arms or other offensive weapons, be it enacted, that
when any persons, being amembled together to the number
of One or more, shall bear, wear, or have amongst them or
say of them say fire-arms or other rifeness weapon, it shall
be lawful for any jastice or justices of the peace to seize, ar,
by order to any coasuble ar other person, to cause to be
seized and detained, for the use of her Majesty, any such
fire-arms or other offensive weapon; and such justice or
other person shall immediately after such seisare and deten-
tion transmit to the Lord, Lieutenant or other chief governor
or governors of Ireland, or to his er their chief or under se-
enemy, • written account of the numbers sod nature of
such Are-Mlle el other offensive weapons, and of the place
where, sad of the person or pons from whom, the same
were respectively seized," observed that his reason for gag-
gestine the insertion of the proposition he had suggested was
that it was desirable to prevent an evil which their
lordships were aware was unfortunately not uncom-
mon in Ireland, arising out of proceedings such m those
which had been brought under thou notice recently
in regard to the Dolly's Brae affair. It was
• coinenin pnctics it speared in Ireland to both parties to
attend certain ceremonies, but at different times; and it
was the practice also of the opposite party to endeavour, by
violins. and with arms, to interrupt those ceremouirs. His
wish was to put • stop to such violence, aid to give power
to the magistrates effectually to prev•nt the collieries likely
to ensue on such occasions. (Hear) ) He had accordingly
prepared • clause to carry out that object, which he
proposed should follow the 3rd elan,' of the
bill ; but if the insertion of each clause was likely,
as he understood from the noble marquis, to occasion
the rejection of the measure elsewhere, be was not the per.
sou to persevere is It, believing as he did that the measure
was essential for the peace of Ireland. (Hear, hear.)
Lord BROUGHAM could not conceive that the insertion
of the clause wend r.sult in the rejection of the bill else-
where. The bill wes a good general measure, but it was
mort desirable that they should make it as effectors as pos-
sible.
The Earl of ELLENBOROUGH reminded their lordst ips
that this was not merely • bid to pot a stop to party proces-
sions on the 17th of March next, but it was • measure for all
times, and therefore it should oe referee in its powers and
applicable to all circumstances of the rendition of Ireland.
Would the noble marquis now pledge the government it the
chum were withdrawn to bring in a measure for carrying
oat the same object? If the noble marquis would give such
• pledge, the noble duke would be justiti-el in not pressing
his claim • bat, if sot, he hoped he would persevere.
(Hear, hear.)
The Marquis of LANSDOWNE was not prepared on the
part of toe government to give ends a pledge. He must ma.
firz the statement which had beta made just now by his noble
and learned friend in the woolsack, that from inionsaties
which had reached him, be was satisfied that the come
quince of the amendment being carried, would be not per-
haps ti prevent the Passing of the bill, but to pre-
vent its patsiog in time to have any iff,ct in pie
vesting outrages which would otherwise almost certainly
occear—(hear, hear)—because from information he had
received ha could state to stair lordship, that there were at
this moment preparations made by the Itibbanmen la Ireland

The Mimes -es then withdrawn.

The Marquis of LANSDOWNE objected to a clause
which gave to every police &Err or ennoble the power
of calling on say penes to ours up his arms, and on his
refusing to yield them einject the party to a penalty.

The Duke of RICHMOND observed that when per
attending such meeting we told that the law would not
allow them to carry arias, the beet way of carrying oat the
law was to seise their anus if they took them then. (Heir,
hem) It was surely desirable that they should inform the
principle they laid down, that parties should not attend pro-
meson, with arms in their bands.
Earl UItEY remarked that provision was already made to

lag piny preisemieras, and powers were given to the
