When the Learned C•ionse: had finished his address;
The Esti of Id MERICK rote, and observed that he felt it
incumbent on him to say a few words upon a poi .t or two

reatitinati : he had therefor waited patiently until he had
fiai.daKl his addrna to the Committee ; but he had particularly
advanced one proposition, against which he het,' a ..h dory as

of that part of the linked Kingdom, to e .ter his solemn pro.
the, via. the asseveration that the right of the King to the
Crown of Ireland was toweled on conquest ! this wan a p
which he moat positively de iv. Another proposition which
he had to oh:;ed to was, that Ireland masa deli adroit shirks,
upon th 4 part of the Realm. It never was—what degree of
dependence might practically prevail, was that of the weaker
under the stronger. All ideas of this kind were, he conceiver',
done away, and in the most decisive language, by the re-
p-al of the 6th of George and with a reference to the
Coon, which had happily taken place b-rween the coon.

alluded to, should be held forth. With respet to the ques-

After a few words were interchanged betwnn r•ne or tws of
their Lordships and the Counsel at the Rh,. resirecti,g the
time nice/nary for bringing forward the official documr ntary
evidence necesistry upon the occasion ; the consideration of
the cue was adioanied by the Committee to a distant day.
The Bins upon the Table, chiefly private, were forwarded in

The Earl of SUFFOLK, seeing a Noble Secnitarr of Suite
in his place, expressed h,s hope that he could an.'uer him a
question, which, however, mote properly helosigad to th
piu-
vince of the first Lord of the Admiralty, and whom he had ex-
pected before that time to hay.: se-rt in the House; the ques-
tion which he had to respected the returns which were
to be laid before the House, in consequence of the Motions of
the Noble Viscount. And It was "kith •r among three ac-
etates, the prices of the tonnage would be specifically stated,
bar instance, the price of the tonnage in the King's Yards, at
one given period, was state., t i be 211. What he wished to
know was, whether the ili,te.mit prices under the dilfeient
Beards of Admiralty would Ise 'medically 'tuft!
Lord HAWKESBURY exorcised li 4 robv,cii,,n that the
Noble V ocount at the tura4 of the Board of Admi. Ity woud
be il,.posed le give every explanation upon the 'Wiwi, eon-
sisteut with a due regard to the interests of the public. With
respect to himself; he confased, he was unprepared to inform
the Noble Earl as to the detailed consideration he had ad.
vetted to.

ROMAN CATHOLICS OF inetAND
Lord GRENVILLE acquainted their Lordships§
that he shosld have, on Monday next. to present a
Petition to the House, on the part of His Majesty's
Roman Catholic subjefts in Ireland. He was aware
that it was not usual to give notices relative to the
presentation of Petitions; but that mentioned by him
was upon a subject of so grave, weighty, and itro
portant a nature, that he had taken the liberty
previously to mention it. The proceeding was not,
he thought, likely to induce any discussion, nor did
he mean to say any thing then upon it ; but, dvuld
any further Motion or Proposition be intended to be
brought forward upon the subjea, due notice would
be given of such intention.
