SECRETRY Pot.s vindicated the Irish Government in the
step they had taken, which had not been resorted m without the
advice of the Lord Chancellor, and Attorney and Solicitor Cle-•
neral of Ireland; nor until there was serious apprehension of an
insurrection in the country. Al-hough the Irish Goveniment
had been put in possion of facts which vindicated the measure
they had resorted to, yet it was decided that no person should
• be apprehended'for any act done by him previous to the date of
that document. He concluded by expressing his confidence
that the conduct of the Goveornment of Ireland would be ap-
proved by that House.
After a debate of considerable duration, the House divided,
on Ponsonby's motion—Ayes, 48; Noes, 138.—Majority, 8,5
.--The House then adjourned.

The SPEAKLA and several Members attended in the House

The House went into a Con-anitten of Supply on the Army
Etiinates, and all the Resolutions were agreed to.

DISTILLERIES.
On the motion of Mr. PERCEVAL, the House went into a
Committee to consider of the Distillation from Sugar, gt.c.
Mr. PrTicEvAL then stated, that he had to propose such an
equalization of the duties on Spirits distilled from Sugar and
froakßarley that the manufacture's might have an equal induce-
ment to 4istril from the one oi'froni the other, just as they choose.

than two years. He tns:l,nt to propose that dne halfpenny per

Pose said, the. Hon. Gentleman wholly mistook the
of the present proposition, which was actually to hold

adcpted, would have a contrary effect, and therefore opposed it.
