which has been so often adverted to, and fir which the
Noble Viceroy has been blamed by the Tories, his Lora-
ship observea--;
All I can say is, that Mr. Blake was recommended to me by a
Noble Friend of mine, then Whig as Vice-Lieutenant of the
County of Mayo, by a relative of. my own ( Lord Dillon), and by
many other headmen. I ascertained that Mr. Blake had acted
as a magistrate for the county of Mayo for several years ; and
I understood that his conduct had been without reproach.
Upon this information—arid upon these recommendations—l
did appoint him. Subsequently to the election for Sligo,
a report for the first time reached me that Mr. Blake had for-
merly been dismissed from the Army by sentence of a court..
martial. 1 then took a step which I thought I was right in
taking. I applied to my Noble Friend at "the head of the
army for a report of that court martial. I read that report,
and, conceiving that an Officer who had been thus dismissed
her Majesty's service, ought not to be placed in the situation of
a Stipendiary Magistrate, I cancelled Mr. Blake's appointment. I
should, however, state that I heard that the whole case had been in-
vestigated ten years since by the late Lord Chancellor, Lord
Manners, on his being recommended for'the Csnamission of the
Peace ; and that Lord Manners had decided that he was fit to hold
it. I repeat, however, that after perusing the proceedings of the
Court Martial, I decided differently from Lord Manners, and Mr.
Blake has accordingly. been dismissed.—(Cheers.) In closing
finally the case of 14r. Blake, I must observe that, so far as his
conduct could be noticed as a magistrate, no fault could be found
with him. "—(Hear, hear.)
This statement, like the rest of Lord Mur.ottAYE's speech,
is clear and satisfactory, and will, we trust., set the question
at rest for ever. We hope also that we shall hear n 1
more, his Session; about the " insurrectionary state" of
Treliind, for what between the ingenious sophistries of Lord
RODEN and the Duke of WELLINGTON, and the sound,
argumentative rejoinders of Lords MULGIIAVE and MEL-
.
BOURNE, the question has been fairly exhausted.

In the House of Loans yesterday, after the presentation of
petitions, some of which were not unimportant, the Earl of
RODEN brought forward his promised motion on the State of
Ireland. A debate ensued, which occupied the remainder of

observations upon the subject in another part of The Sim.
In the HOUSE of COP.IMONS, Lord JOIIN RUSSELL said that
doubts had tuisea regarding tl:e ten days' notice required,
though he thought that there was nothing doubtful ;. but if it
.were considered that they were well founded, he should_ hero-
after move that no Election Petitions be taken into consi-
deration until after the Christmas recess. .

Mr. C. BuLLEts the❑ *moved the Order of the Day for the
second reading of the Election Petitions Bill.
A long debate, which we have made the subject of a separate
article, ensued. The Order of the Day was carried by a ma-
jority of 54.
Lord J. RUSSELL moved for the appointment of a Select
Committee on the oreration of the Poor Laws Amendment
Act. After a short discussion, the motion was agreed to.
On the motion of Mr. BARING, a Committee was appointed
to consider the present state of the Communication by Rail-
roads, so far as it affects the transmission of letters and the
Post-office in general. After which the llouse adjourned.

A long discussion took place last night in the House of I
Lords on the state of Ireland, the text of which was fur-
nished by the words " domestic tranquillity," as applkd
to that country, which were introduced into one of the pa-
ragraphs of the Royal Speec.h. On this text. Lord RODEN
delivered a speech—say, rather, preached a sermon—of in-
tolerable prolixity and sarpassing 'dullness. " SO far," he
said, " from the state of Ireland being more tranquil than
for a long period of time, (t no period, he would hardly
except those of open insurrection itself, had property,
had life, had the exercise of the Protestant religion
iu Ireland, been in greater danger, than at the moment
when he had the honour of addressing them. It might
be said that the Judges had expressed themselves
gratified at the Assizes, that the calendars were so small,
which might be held forth as a proof of the .general.tran-
quality of the country. But he thought that the fact of
the calendars being so small, when compared with the Pa-
pers he should move for, established his position, awl
proved that the Law of Ireland was a dead letter ; that
crimes were committed ; that the culprits were en-
larpid ; and that, therefore, the individual offenders were
not brought to the bar of justice." So, it seems, that the
solemn official declarations of the Judges of the land—those
declarations which they make advisedly, after much
consideration, and under a sense of onerous re.
sponsibility—are no longer to have any value.
They rre to be treated as opinions of no account—
or if it be deemed necessaty to pay them some little de-
ference, then they are only to be looked on as so many
proofs that " offenders are permitted to go at large, and
are -not brought to the bar of justice." If this be not
sacrificing all sense of truth, of justice, of propriety, to
party spirit, we really know not what is! But suppose
the Judges' charges had happened to coincide with
Lord RoDEN's notions of' the state of Ireland—that instead
of certificating an improved condition of things in that
country, they had borne testimony to the fact that crime
was more rife there than ever, does any man in his senses
believe that, under such circumstances, this high Tory
Lord would net have paid theni the most marked respect,
treated their statements as oracular, and their authority as
irresistible ? Most assuredly he would ; but at present
party spirit is at variance with his sense of justice i blinds
him to the truth of things ; and prevents hiM from either
seeing or understanding any thing that does not ac-
cord with his own purblind views and sentiments. We
look on his Lordship's speech last night as the greatest
failure that even he has ever perpetrated. It abounded in
mysterious hints and surmises; in assertions never proved; in
statements which have been already contradicted. A few
murders, and some forcible abductions—to say nothing of
occasional meetings of nightly marauders—had, as he
undeniably asserted, taken place in Ireland within
the last few months ; wherefore he felt jastified
in inferring that that country was in as ins aree-
tionary a state as ever ! What preposterous logic
is this How narrow the premises—how comprehensive
'he deduction !—the one bearing about the same propor-
tion to the other that FALSTAFF'S halfpennyworth of bread
bore to his ten shillings worth of sack ! If an occasional
murder or act of spoliation is to prove that Ireland is in a
state of insurrection ; how alarming must be the pres, nt
equitable condition of England, where, within the last fortnight, not
murders e resv
ever
ptroincenipulsetiot constitute t ee
less than six atrocious rs--as may be seen by the
records of the daily journals—have been perpetrated. If

annecio;rfroa-
Lord MOLORAVE replied to Earl RODEN in a manly, i itel-
ligent, and unanswerable spirit. He grappled with, an I
overthrew, all his statements ; and proved, by a series of
documents gathered from an infinite variety of sourc,s.
that Majesty's Ministers %yens abundantly jnstifiel in
i rJdocia4 tile term " domestic iranquillify'' into the
Royal Speech. On the particular subject of Air. pLAKE,

The first trial of strength between the Reformers and the
Tories in the new House of Commons took place last night,
and the result was the defeat of the anti-Reform faction by
a majority of fifty-four. We shall no doubt be told that
the Tories were taken by surprise—that they were not
aware of the division—and so forth ; but these are futile sub-
terfuges which will not deceive the public, and which, even
were they admissible, would not be very complimentary
to the party who, with their accustomed modesty, has
arrogated to themselves the sole guardianship of the laws,
customs, and constitution of the country.
The question upon which the division occurred is one
of considerable importance. Mr. CHARLES BULLER had
moved the Order of the Day for the second reading
of the Election Petitions which • motion was met
by an amendment from Loi;cl STANLEY, the purport
of which_ was to postpone the second reading to the
12th of February. The Noble Lord was supported
by Mr. WYNN, Sir E. SUODEN, and Sir ROBERT PEEL,
but whoever expects to find in the speeches of either or all
of these Hon. Gentlemen any thing like a rational argu-
ment for delaying the discussion of the measure, will be
sadly disappointed. Lord STANLEY'S main stay was, that
as Mr. O'CotewueL had given notice of his intention to in-
troduce a Bill having the same object in view, but proceeding
en a totally different plan, it would be absolutely necessary to
wait until both the Bills should be before the House, that it
might be in a situation to judge which of the two was the
best. Mr: O'CONNELL, whose hawk's eye at once per-
ceived the drift of the Noble I:ord, cut this ground from
under his feet in a moment, by stating that rather than
stand in the way of Mr. BULLER'S measure, he would re-
linquish his own. Sir EDWARD SUCHEN and Sir ROBERT
PEEL contented themselves with nibbling at some of the.
details, instead of discussing the principle of the measure.
It ;is sufficiently evident from the course pursued by
the Tory leader, and indeed by the. greater part of what
fell from him--to use a Parliamentary phrase—that he
and his party are in great trepidation lest this Bill, which
will be the means of greatly improving the constitution
and pral,tice of Election Committees, should pass into a
law before the spurious petitions of the SPOTTIS•
wooor. gang come to be taken into consideration by
the House. Now, we sincerely hope that this will be
the case, If it should not be so, the Bill will lose the
greatest part of its value in the estimation of the public, for
never was a more infamous plot hatched against the liberties
of the people than that conspiracy of SPOTTISWOODE, BUR-
DETT and Co. As to the stuff uttered by the Right Hon.
Baronet, about an ex post facto lasv, we are truly surprised
that any man above the rank and education of an attorney's
apprentice, should have shown so much ignorance of the
meaning of an ex post facto law, as to apply that term to
'the proposed remedy for a crying evil.

Madrid Papers of the 19th inst., inclusive, have been
received this morning, together with the Speech .of the
QCEEN•REGENT on opening the Constitutional Cortes on
that day. Her MAJESTY was accompanied by her illus-
trious. daughter DONNA ISABELLA 11. ; but neither by the
people 'nor by the ChaMbers was she received with and thing
approaching to enthusiasm. Not a cheer greeted her ; the
people gazing with cold indifference on the Royal pageant.
Her MAJESTY appeared to feel deeply this decline of her
popularity, and we do not doubt but that she heartily re-
pents of her contemptuous dismissal of the rate Cortes.
'l'hc Speech itself is altogether a string of common-place
truisms and bombastic nonsense—more especially those pa-
ragraphs which refer to the Carlist movements in the Inte-
rior of the'Kingdom. The political genius of ERCILLA was
-tame compared with that of the Minister who drew up the
paragraph in the Speech beginning with " During the time
which has passed since the breaking up of the last legisla-
ture," &c. It is however but justice to the Spanish Go-
vernment to state, that the framers of the Royal Speech
cannot be charged with want'of gratitude to England ; for
although no mention is made of the auxiliary legion, our
marines are placed on the same footing as the naval and mili-
tary forces of her Catholic Majesty.
Speech of the Queen-Regent of SPAIN on the opening-of
the first Session of the Cortes, elected under the Constitu-
tion of 1837, on the 19th inst. :

" I always experience the liveliest satis!action in fin,ling myself
in this ball surrounded by the representatives of the nation, whom
I consider the firmest support of the throne and of the Lim, gua-
ranteeing the liberties of the Spanish people.
.• For the second time it is opportune that my beloved daughter
Isabella the Second should be present on this solemn occasion, in
order that the love of the institutions which are to render her reign
and the nation over which she is to govern happy may be eugraven
in her heart.

" I continue to receive from the foreign Powers wile have ac-
knowledged the Queen, proofs of their amity and good under-
standing. . •
" Though I deplore the death of the King of England, William
the Fourth, I derive consolation from the circumstance that his
illustrious successor, Queen Victoria, animated with the same sen-
timents as her august uncle, is closely united with his Majesty the
King of the French and the Queen of Portugal, the patties to the
Quadruple Treaty of Alliance. Those Sovereigns are favouring
our cause with as much interest as ever ; to their generous assis-
tance we, in a great measure, are indebted for the safety of our
frontier and of the vast extent of our coasts, through the anxious
vigilance of the allied squadrons, and other efficient and seasonable
assistance, which daily ox its more and more my profound grati-
tude. Amour.; them are of great value to our cause the measures
adopted by his 3fAjesty the hing; of the French to prevent the ex-
tracting of war articles and provisions far the rebels (ruin the ex-
tensive line of the Pyrenees, and the permission granted in some
cases to our troops to cross the territory of France.
" The Cabinets with which we are not on the same terms do
not for that show themselves hostile to Spain; it being hoped that
when better informed of the recent successes of our arms, and of
the unanimous resolution of Spaniards to support to the last the
Queen's throne, there will be some change in their policy, espe-
cially when the atrocious conduct of the Pretender in his expedi-
tion to the centre of the'monarchy.comes to their knowledge.
The Crown, beigig duly authorised by a special law of the
Cortex to conclude trek of peace and unity with the new States
of Spanish America, upon the basis of the acknowledgment of their
independence, I inform you with satisfaction that I have, in the
name of the Queen, ratified the treaty concluded at Madrid, at the
end of December of last year, between Spain and the Republic of
Mexico, flattering myself that such reconciliation between two
people, who should consider themselves as brothers, will produce
incalculable good to both countries.
" I am animated with the same feeling s towards the other
States of America, in proof of which I have opened the ports of
Spain to the merchantmen of Venezuela and Monte Video.
" I have also ratified the articles of peace, protection, and com-
merce granted by the Captain-General of the Phillipine Islands to
the Sultan and Daltos of Jolo.
" The differences arisen between the military Government of
Ceuta and the Moors of the frontier country have been adjusted
in a satisfactory manner.
‘• I regret that the refusal of the Cabinet of Turin to concede
the regzum exequater to certain consular agents in Spain should
have occasioned the interruption of our mercantile traffic with that
country ; but no occasion will be neglected of re-establishing
it on the footing upon which it has al ways been carried on, and
in accordance with the honour of the Throne and the dignity of the
nation.

" My Government has done and will continue to do all that is
possible to remedy the evils caused by the devastating course which
has been pursued by the rebel Prince, during which the towns have
given such signal instances of loyalty and valour. In furtherance
of this object, it is essential that industry should be sustained, and
that commerce should nut be wholly neglected. Agriculture, the
arts, roads, and canals are attended to with a care proportioned to
the' extent to which they have suffered. Charity and public in-
struction will receive all the aid that the Government may be able
to afford them; and every branch of the Administration will be
upheld with greater effect than could be well conceived, consider-
ing the actual situation of Spain.
" In the ultramarine provinces of the country my subjects enjoy
the most perfect repose, and the great majority of their pacific po-
pulation will view in the light of a benefit the decision with which
they are governed, according to lawn frarned to ensure their pros-
.ortint possessions by means of those cruisers which are indis-
erity and aggtilldisernent. Government vernment protects those IT-
pensable in the islands of Cuba and Porto Rico, and in the gulf of
14104100, OW marine in that quarter conducts itself with the credit

THE FUNDS.-(THIS DAY.)

PRNE sd.

and constancy for which it has at all times been so much distin-
guished, and the same remark may be applied to the service neces-
sary on the northern coasts of the Peninsula and those of Ca-
talonia. The 'Minister of this department will present you a pro-
ject of law intended to give greater vigour to the administration of
the Admiralty, and another also of anew commercial code.
" Fully convinced that justice is the basis of social order, 1. will
endeavour to overcome the obstacles which the actual state of
things opposes in some particulars to its free and unembarrassed
action. Finding the civil.code already concluded, and the criminal
and that appertaining to the forms of judicial proceedings near:y
so, the Government will hasten to present them to the deliberation
of the Corte..;, as we:l as the projects of law for the organization of
,the tribunals, for.the definition,of their powers with the mode of
executing them, and as to the stations which 'individuals will have
to assume, that which rslates to their several responsibilities ac-

companying them.
" During the time which has passed since the breaking up of
the last Legislature, the military operations have been moreactive
• and important than at any other period of the civil war. Conquered
in the country which, may be said to have been their cradle, and
which was even the principal theatre of the insurrection, the rebels
have sought in other provinces that fortune which had iere aban-
doned them. But, pursued without intermission, and beaten in
Catalonia and in Valencia, they came at length to receive a Ithe
gates of this capital the last and bitterest defeat. Many of"you
have been witnesses of the imposing spectacle which Madrid Ire-
acnted when the enemy came in sight of it. I behold it still, and
never will the lively acclamations of patriotic enthusiasm and loyalty
which resounded in all parts when I passed w ith my angcist daughter
through the files of those brave men who so anxiously panted for the
combat, obliterated from my memory. You well know the result.
Terror and desperation seized upon the soul of the enemy, and
driven as far as it was possible to follow him, he flew •to conceal
his disappointment in his ancient dens. In his flight and dispersion
be his left some provinces,i,ifrsted with bands of his partisans, whO,
favoured by the nature of the country, harass the smaller towns,
and occasionally intercept communication. But the Government
has already taken energetic means for exterminating them, and
these will, no doubt, produce the desired effect in the course of a
short time.

" The army and the navy, under the command of the distin-
guished chiefs appointed to them, have acquired fresh claims to
my gratitude and that of the nation, by the ardour and patience
which they have evinced during this short but severe contest.
"I am bound to make equally honourable mention of the effi-
cacious co-operation which has been afforded by the naval forces
of her Britannic Majesty, who have displayed their characteristic
intrepidity and decision.
" if for a moment there has been a relaxation in the military
discipline of certain corps, and crimes of a deplorable nature have
been perpetrated, the principal authors of them have been very
promptly and severely punished, and my Government will take
especial care fhat such excesses do not occur again.
" M 3 Ministers will apply themselves to the examination and
discussion of the propositions which remained undisposed of in the
previous Legislature, and they will proceed to arrange them next
year, after they shall have been fully digested and sanctioned.-
" consequence of the great difficuties that have attended the
'struggle in Which we have been engaged, the long duration of
which bitterly afflicts me, the public Treasury does not present al-
together so clattering an appearance as could be wished. The pre-
vious Cortes generously authorised my Government to employ such ,
means as the condition of the co entry permitted to face the obliga-
tions of the public service, and more particularly to provide for
the probable deficit at the end of the current year ; but although
the Government are doing, and will continue to do, their utmost,
in order that these mattress may be realised, it is necessary to bear
in mind that from the very nature of them they cannot, unfortu-
nately, be made available so quickly and completely as the state of
the Exchequer demands.
"'My Government will diligently occupy itself in the adininis-
tration of all the existing imposts, in augmenting their productive-
ness, and in diminishing the charges upon them ; in regulating the
distribution of the public moneys, and in introducing into every de-
partment those retrenchments Which may seem compatible with
the interests of the State. And, lastly, as circumstances may im-
prove, they will not fail to keep in view the position of the national
and foreign debts, the interest on which, owing to the great and
urgent calls upon the treasury since last year has been unhappily
otglected.
" Such, Senors, is, in fine, the state of the nation. If it is
not so prosperous as my ardent wishes would have led me to desire
the misfortune is to be attributed to the evils arising from the
scourge of civil war. But 1 assure you that the speedy termina-
tion of this will be the first object of my endearours, and that to
which my Government will apply itself with the utmost prompti-
tude and activity.
" I do not doubt that they will receive from you all the co-ope-
ration win h it may seem necessary to afford them, with the view
to bring about so desirable a result; as well as to maintain public
order, and to preserve inviolate the Constitution to which we have
sworn, objects that will be best promoted by union and perfect
harmony between the various powers of the empire.

The whole of the. Paris Papers of Sunday have been
received. Advices from the North of Spain represent the
QUEEN'S troops as greatly enraged on account of the mili-
tary execution of the gallant Colonel Don LEON IRIARTE,
by command of ESPARTERO. We are not surprised at it.
The brave IRIARTE was shot on the 16th, for the murder
of SAmtsFirLD —a crime which he had neither the
influence to prevent no; the power to punish ; an'l which
was only a crime because committed without the forms of
law. SAARSFIPI.D was unquestionably a,. traitor to the
Constitutional cause. After the execution of Don LEON
IntAtm: and five others, on the 16th, ESPARTEKO pro-
ceeded to Vittoria to punish• the murderers of Colon,'
MIENDIYIL.

The illoniteur of Sunday contains the following Royal
Ordinance, reducing the duty on coals imported to France
by both sea and land—a document of some importance to
English coal exporters :

Louis Philippe, King of the French, er,n4id ring the law
of the 2J July, 1836, which has regulated the tariff upon im-
ported coals—
Considering the 34th article of the law of the 17th Decem-
ber, 1814—

We have ordered, and do order, the following :
Art. 1. From the publication of the present ordinance the
duty upon imported foreign coals shill be reduced as follows :

sively to Dunkirk inclusively, by French ships 50 c., by fo-
reign ships lf., the 103 kilo,gramines,
' Coals imported by land—From the sea to Halluin inclu-
sively, 50c. the 100 kilojammes.
By all other points, 15e. the 100 kilogrammes.

partment of the Moselle shall continue to pay 10 centimes by
full hectolitre, weighing l 0) kilogrammes.
Given at the Palace of the Tuileries, Nov. 25, 1837.

N. MARTIN (Du Nord.)
There is no other intelligence of public interest in the
French journils, except that 2,000 men are to be sent to
reinforce the garrion cf Constimtine. The report of the
death of JEROME BONAPARTE is premature. The Prince
is ill. at Milan, but his recovery is considered Gertz:in.

South American papers to the 15th of October, inclusive,
have been received. On the resignation of the Regent of
Brazil the following list of the new Cabinet appeared in the
Correio •

CITY, TWELVE O' CLOCK.

We have a mail from Rio Janeiro, by tho Pandora—sailed on
the 15th Oct. ; Pernambuco, 13th Sept. ; Bahia, 18th Sept. This
packet brings a freight of 400,000 dollars. All was quiet when she
sailed.

The great length of the debates in both Houses of Parliarnrnt
last night sufficiently occupies the attention of the public this
morning.

Consols closed: yesterday at 934 931 for Money, and 933/ XI
for the January Account ; opened same.
This being settling day in the British Market, the brokers and
jobbers are chiefly occupied in adjusting their accounts. The ex-
treme fluctuation during the account not being to a great extent,
there is no doubt but it will pass off well ; Exchequer Bills, 43 45
prem. ; India Bonds, 29 31 prem. ; Bank Stock, 212%; India
Stock, 270%.
In the Foreign Market, Spanish Active closed 204 20%, with
Coupons ; Deferred, 7 74 ; Passive, 4% 4%; Portuguese
closed 301 31, opened same ; Three per Cents., 20 ; Mexican,
284 ; Colombian, 24% 25k ; Dutch Two-and-a- Half per Cents.;
544 54%.
The accounts by the Pandora packet, from Rio Janeiro, bring
the Exchange on London, 281 to 29 ; Stock, 87 to 874.
We ran state, from good authority, that the report in a Morning
Journal, stating that the house of Samuel and Phillips having re-
fused the order of the 13razilian Government for 10,0001., is void
of foundation. The above firm has received, by the Pandora
packet, bills to the amount of 30,000/. ; also a large amount of
produce, on the Government account.
HALF-PAST ONE O'CLOCK.
The settlement of the Consol Account h proceeding well; as
the extreme fluctuation has only been about 14 per cent., there is
no difficulty in its adjustment, and of course no failure. Yesterday
before the puttltand calls were settled, it appeared a Bull account ;
but at present it may be called rather a Bear one.
Consols have been during the morning, 934 at present im-
proved to 93i ; January Account, 934 4 ; Exchequer Bills, 43
46 ; India Bonds, 28 31 ; Bank Stock, 211%; India Stock, 269%.
In the Foreign Market Brazil Stock has improved to 774 to is,
owing to the news received from Rio Janeiro this morning Leing
of more favourable nature than was anticipated. Spanish Active,
904, with Coupons ; Passive, 41 4 ; Deferred, i; Portuguese,
301 81 ; Three per Cents. 204 ; Mexican, 284 ; Columbian,

LIVERPOOL COTTON-MARKET, \rl'EßDAy.
