should be carried on in Dublin with more eiaolu-,
meta than in Scotland. He would tote ngainst the
motion, w. he eon:Weevil it a must invidious mode
of entrapping the Parliament into a grant of the

Mr. W. FITZGERALD supported the motion; the
present salary of the Lord Lieutenant mat most
relay deficient, and the dearth of business
which had been aye' ibed to the situation, a moat pal-
pable misrepresentation. It w, r well known that
the Duke of Hichtnond had entered into the office
from no conaideration of emolument, and such a
circumstance was extremely desirable.
Sir J. I% vwroier wished the state of the Civil
List of Ire:a:141 was looked into before ant grant was
made good fimn it; there ass no parliaineutary
ground for 111:,I, • .ig this grant. IVith respect to the

felt regret that at a time of micreased bucletis of

vent the possibility of giving it due consideration.
