IRISH CLERGY RESIDENCE BILL.

The order of the day wa. t;to moved for the
pecood reading of the above Bill, which having
been door,
On the motion for its committal, ffie AMR
NEWPORT said, the Bill fell far short of hie ides
or his intention. There we. nothing in it enficknt
to enforce residence. It contained nothing hied,
tog for that purpose; it kit every thing to the dies
crction of the filth,* for it gave him power to call
or recall to or from residence as he pleased. It
left in the power of the Bishop to judge of resi-
deuce, and it was ouly for the party to keep fair
with Min, stet he might never see Ireland. Relied
soother etijection, which was, be could Dot see why
them slimaid he sielidarenisa-bestome the present '•
Bill, and that on the same subject, which related
to Eogliutd. The English Bill provides for Curat,,,
and not one word is mentioned of them in the pre-
sent Bill. He had known instaucet of the Curate
in Ireland only reeeivin 21. los. a-3ear for doing
the duty .fa Rector. In the county of Kildare,
he knew three instances of Curates having only SL
a-year, and he would venture to ray it was iu the
onnie proportion throughout the other counties,
although these were the only instances that had
come to hi, knowledge. He would highly approve of
any measure that could enforce their residence, but
the present Bill would be fluty enlarging the influ-
ence of the Bishop, and would not tend to enforce
the residence proposed.
Sir ARTHUR WELLESLST observed, that the Bill
evidently: did not provide for Curitet, but for the
satisfaction of the Honourable Baronet, he assured
him it woe hit intention to introduce a < lause for
that purpora He should also pemose a measure
that would bring the Bill under the tense systi in as
that of England. The objections the Honourable
Baronet had to the Archbethops and Bishops having
the controls!, he hoped he would wave; for he did
not see any mode or proposition that could be
brought forward, that ought or could divest them
of that pcnier.
Sir JOHN Nee/Tore, in explanation, said, it was
the tysiem of grautiug licensee to absentees that he
disapproved of.
The Cassceetost of the EXCFITQUER thought
the present Bin limited licenses more than airy
measure that bad 3-et been brought forward. It
even restrained the Bishops. He 61, a doubt whe-
ther the present Bill and the English Bill should
not be consolidated into one.

wished to know why the first-fruit hand was nct

Sir ARTMCII West,rsiwir expensed his surprise
that the Hon. Soroaet shool.l object to the coilec-
bow of the first-froits in Ireland. The aggregate
amount of what has been collected would net
exceed 3501. si-year. It surely eonld oft be said
