Sir ARTHUR WELLESLEY moved , the Order of
the Day OA the Second reading of the aublin Police
Bill. _ _

Mr, Sli.4ll7said, the Bill was only that momeet
put into .his hauds, and as he conceived that it tend-
ed to violate the charter of the City of publin, he
could not give his con Ont to the second reading, at
least he wished that tiptile t ime should be allowed be,
fore the second rea:ting.
6ir A. „WELLESLEY said, he had no wish
whatever to hurry' the Bill forward, but:as.it must
be obvious that the Bill could' not be understood till
the Blanks were filled up, he wished that the Bill
should be read. a second tirtie, and committed for
that purpose. Time would be then given for Gen-
denten w nsult with their constiments.upon the
subject. and it .would be then otsen to them to Ojai
either to the principle, or to any of the Clauses of
the Bill.
BETIESFORD. said, that though, in his
opinion, this Bill trenched direetly upon the charter
of the City of Dublin, yet he should' not noWoppOse
this motion, because it Was necessary that the blanks
'should be tilled up in a Committee, before the whole
()fate Bill could be understood, He wished very
much that the House could have a copy 'of the
Charter `of the City of Dublin before iltem, beconse
by that' Charter no person Could exercise the office
of Magistrate" in that City who were not of the
CorpOratim ; now the present • Bill proposed to vio-
Jate the Charter in.that partiehlar, •
t,nd NCELLOR, of Me EXCHEQUER
said, chat as it wott agreed on all• bands that the Bill
could not he perfealy understood until all the blanks.
were tilled eels, 'he' thought it would be better to
postnone thediscusqlon of the .Bill until that period.
Mr. GaarraN concurred in opinion with the
flight Hon. Gentlemam He did not mean to phtdge
himself' either to support or oppose the Bill, but he
thott,;ht •it absoluhdy necessary that the'Bill should
be made intelligible, by having the blanks filled
up ; he therefore should concur in,the'Mution;
Sir 4. WELLESLEY, in reply to what had
fallen fruit Mr. Beresfurd, said, that his Honoura-
ble Friend seemed to base forgotten that, by almost
all the Police Bells which had been passed for the
City of Ditelin, persons had been appointed to ad
as• Magistrates who did nut belong to the Corpora-
tion,, and consequently the Charter had. been in su
Much violated. The re were at present per,ons
ercisin:; the office of Magistrates in Dublin who had
no coonehion whatever with the Corporation.
JOHN NEWPORT said he by no means
• ogrted in ,opiniOn with some of the Gentlemen wild
had preceded him,, who seemed to think that the
peace and security of the metropolis of Ireland was
not to be• put in competition with a Charter of a
Carpf.raion. • the, Corporation could not preserve
tie Polite of the City, it. by no. means I;)th),,,vot that
it must therefore be left without any Police at all.
