ing, and stated that Ile did .not see any reason for in-
cluding in the Bill a provision for making a new
Road from Limerick to 'Galway.
The Earl of klAttnwtcKz: approved of the Bill,

he intended- to propose in the Committee., with the
view that all parties who .might be affeded' by the

benefit to that part of the country.-

POOR OF IRELAND.

Sir JOHN igirfiwiT mond, that" several
Aas which related tp the Poor ckf Irelandliliourld be
entered as read. He then p,roceeded to OlServe,
that the Grend Juries were empowered under these
A.Lis to preser.t certain stuns for the support of cha-
ritable Instituttoki, such as Hospitals and Infirrria-
Ties ; but the surnr,; 5u ,granted were found totally
jnskifficient ;..and :it it. -,7ere not tbr the liberal con-
'lribution, of they must fa tO the ground.

He should therefore now propose to increase, in a
moderate degree, the allowance to these Institutions.
The increase would_ not be greater than was abso-
lutely necessary' on :account of the increase on the
price of. provisions and of every necessary of
life. There were other Clauses; in the Bill,
which, with the permission of the House, he
meant to bring in, for increasing the allowance
to the Surgeons of country Infirmaries, and.for pro-
viding that annual , returns should be made for all
Hospitals and Infirmaries in Ireland, of their receipts
and expences, of the number of their patients, arc.
He concluded with moving for leave to bring in a
Bill to provide for the Reliefof the Poor, and for the,
better Management of Hospitals and Infirmaries in
Ireland,

Mr. FOSTER said, he submitted it to the Right
Hon. Bart. whether it was wise or prudent to bring
forward this measure at such a late period of the
Session, when so many of the Irish Members were
absent. This Bill was not called for by any press-
ing necessity, and might be produEtive of great in-
conyeniente. It was certainly of importance that the
accounts of the Hospitals and Infirmaries should be
properly audited ; but he contended that they were
audited
.now by the Grand Juries and by the Judges
at the Assizes. He obje&ed very much to this
mode of putting off Irish business until almost the
end of the Session. No notice' whatever had been
given to apprize the Gentlemen of Ireland that this
measure was to be brought in. Indeed this very
subje& had been before the House last year, and
some regulations made; the Irish Members, there-
fore, had no reason to expea that it would be
brought forward almost at the close of the Session.

• Sir JOHN ..VE/PPORT said, there were yester-
day no less than forty Representatives of Ireland pre-
sent in the House, and he did not think it likely
that there would be a greater number present at any
time; certainly there had not been a greater number
during the present Session. The allowances to these
Charities which he proposed to increase were fixed
24 years, ago, since which the increase in the
price of every article of provisions had been enor-
mous ; it was therefore obviously necessary to in-
crease those allowances. The Right Hon. Gentle 7
man had said, that the Accounts of the Infirmaries
and Hospitals were examined and audited by the
Grand Juries at the Assizes, but he begged leave to
state, that in' the South of Ireland they were never
submitted to the Grand Juries. There were many
Hospitals which had considerable landed estates,
and the Grand. Juries could have no controul
over the expenditure of that part •of their in-
come ; and yet it -could not be denied
_but that
there ought ,to be a check over the Treasurer or
other person who managed these Revenues. He
should, therefore, persist in his. Motion fOr leave to
bring in the Bill.
_ _

Mr. iItEXAIVDER hoped that his Right Hon.
Friond(Mr. FOSTER) would not oppose the bring-
ing in the'Bill, -or the printing 'it, even though he
might afterwards feel himself upder the necessity of
opposing

Mr. POOLE said, he did not think the flight
Hon, Bart. could carry the Bill through this Session,
but he was glad that the subje& ilact been brought
fro.varcl, in order that the Gentlemen of Ireland
might turn their attention to it. In the County that
he-belonged to, the Treasurers of the flospitals or
Infirmaries always subinitted, their Accounts to the
Grand Juries4y whom they were- minutely ex-
amined.

Colonel BA GIVELL was surprised that any op-
position should be madeto a measure that was so
much .wanting in Ireland ; and he trusted that the'
Right Kon. Baronet would persist in hiS Motion.
The Poor of Ireland were in such a situation as to
call fix the utmost attention ofParliament, and this
Bill was in his opinion calculated to affoid them ma-
terial relief. _

Leave was then given to bring in the Bill.
S)..AVE TRADE.

A Message from` the Lords requested an immep
dials conference with the Commons on the subject
of the late conference.

'On the Motion of Lord Howicic, the request
was complied with. Several Members went out to
the eottfetence. On their return Lord FIENRY'Pwr-
TY tated that the Lords had taken the Resolution
of the COrranons relative to the Slave Trade into
consideration,-and concurred With then; in the said
Resolution.
