TIPPERARY SPLCIAL COMMISSION.
The Special Commission was opened at i'loninel on Monday,
the 13th, before Lord Norbury and Bamn George.
Lord Norbury addressed the grand Jury, and assured them
solemnlv, that no ordinary occurrences had produced the
present -Commission. NVhilc Europe enjoys pea c this unhappy
eouutry is distracted and at war with herself ; the disturb-
ances of this county have obli:,;cd the Representative of the
king to send this Commission ; he would be censor able did
he overlook them ; he ti els it his duty to adopt every alterna-
tive; and, if the presctit measures fail in.cilect, military law
will be put in execution. The virtuous and i t —FM conduct of
the Mag:stracv, in endeavouiing io give peace to the county,
aided by the peat exertion; of the learned Pr:me Serjeant,
cannot be too much panegyriscd. His Lordship adverted to the
laws now in fui ce ; they sheaved the wisdom of the Le;:,iseaturet
but it was not his intention to enter into a discussion of them.
Every man must approve of the resolutions entered into by the
Magistracy; tiler have effectually si!enced the jacobinical
calumnies spread against them. 1. he Calendar next engaged
Lis Lordship s attention . and he remarked, that the laws he
before alluded to were laws of mercy, compared with the crimes
••• with which i.t Was filled.
He ti usted that, notwithstanding the disturbances of this
&inlay, Gentlemen would be as umuilled as if they \vete tin-
. conscious of them. Their proceedings must be tender and
patient ; and every criminal must have the benefit of Counsel
genius of the lh:itish law is, to bear with patience and
decide with mercy. Ile would ask any Jacobin, would he put
these laws into competition with that system which has de-
prived society of an amiable, up, iglit, and active Magistrate
(Mr. Baker). ills Lordship adverted to the history of this
.country,* its 'continual divisions and distractions. Good GOD,
Gentlemen, said he. will it be said, that we cannot be united
Irishmen for virtuous purposes..
His Lordship placed the present disturbances to the acconnt
of pe/ly ehieftuins; who, lie said, took every advantage of the
peotrle to make therm discontented ; lie extolled the power
of (treat Britain, giving peace tO Europe, and restoring the
unjustly-dethroned Sureicigns to their respective commies.
lie again adverted to the number of crimes committed, and
remarked, that no criminal had yet suffered ; which, he said,
was the consequence of deep confederated guilt ; the last ex-
piring gasp of Jacobinism which, hunted out of every other .1
country, has fastened upon this unhappy county. Gentlemen,
said he, you are assembled here as the goardiaos of the Con-
stitution; our business is, to give peace to this country; and
may Gun, the lover of justice, dcfend us font the hands of
'fur enemies: Under his protection we will not fear any adver-
. we are to combat are those who
he peoph:. In the name of GOD,
that we may have to Say, that we

LONDON :
SUNDAY, JANUARY 28.

The Paris Papers of Wednesday arrived yesterday
afternoon. Their contents are important. Paris ;s far
from being in a tranquil state. New arrests take place
daily, and the trials of the traitors in custod) have been
put off, in all probability because the public feeling is strong
against their being punished.
PA ins, J. 24. General Pire, whose name appears on
the first list in the Ordoanance of the 24th July, was ar-
rested yesterday.—General Bellair has been arrested and
conveyed to the Abbaye.—Generals Drouot, Debelle, and
Cambrone, who are to be soon tried, have been, for some
days past, kept in very close con!ineme•nt (are secret).
Several individua!s, who were great partizans of the
Usurper during the late interregnum, were arrested yester.
day in the Faubourg St. Marceau, and put into the hands
of the competent Authorities by the armed Powers.—M.
•Dupuis, the Attorney General, has not yet drawn up the
indictment on the affair of Lavalette.. The accuser), in
addition to Madame L'tvalette, and the three English
Officers, include the gaoler and turnkey, whose punish-
ment, if found guilty, will brand them with infamy.
Tire arrivals of Foreign Papers within the last two
days have been very scanty. A mail from Holland, how-
ever, has been received, including a very interesting Docu.
went respecting the Order of Jesuits.
Some Letters from Paris have also been received through
private hands ; an extract from one of which, that will be
found very interesting, we here annex:

4g emus, JAN. 22.

" Nothing of the slightest interest has occurred in the
Chamber of Deputies since I last addressed you. he two
solemn•fetes of Friday and Saturday occupied exclusively
the attention of the Members. The renewal of the Depu.
ties on the Budget in the Bureaux will take place today.
trust, by Thursday 1 shall be able to offer you an interesting
analysis on this subject. Permit me however, generally to
remark, that even should the sale of the forests be success •
fully opposed, it is yet possible to make a tolerable Budget ;
and should M. de Vaublanc, who is now modifying, or
rather entirely recomposing; his Bill on Elections with the
Commission (the first propositions being concurred in by
no party), succeed in carrying it through the House, the
Ministry will not give them elves up as irk etrievably lost.
" A very singular conversation took place the other
evening at the Prince of Benevento's, concerning the Am-
nesty Bill, between the Statesman and Al. l'ozzi di Borgho.
'flu: former advanced, that the Royal promise was abso.
lutely violated ; and that his Majesty would have acquired
incomparably more real force and consideration in the
public mind, had he asserted his full right of amnesty, and
rejected the amendment.
