The Irish Clergy Residence Bill
,was read a second
time ; and on -the question that it be committed for
Thursday,
Sir JOHN NEWPORT rose,„and said that4e
i concurred entirely in the principle of the Bill with
the. Gentlemen opposite, and was-Willing to atreo to
every measure that could tend to enforce re.idenee;
but he thought that the Bill, in its present., shape,
, fell short of the principle itself. He did -inch think
1 it went far enough ; there'.‘ as, for instance, no. pm-
vision for the Curates doing duty in the place of Non- •
residents. Besides, he disapproved of the discreti.L
.onary: power which the Bill devolved upon the
Bishops. The ;words, '' does not' sufficiently .rc-
- side," he „complained of a.i', being indefinite, and
especially SO itt' it was innded by them that the
Bishops -were to determine. upon Inc 'sufficiency Of
• residence.
Sir ARTHUR IPEL LES4EY said,' .he was. '
sappy-to find that the Right Hoir. Bart. approved of
the general .principles of the Bills and that his only-
objection to it was that it did nut •,o far enough ; for .
instance, the.. Right 'Hon. Baronet thoOgnt that the '
Bill ought to make a proper provision tor the Curates.
The Hon. Baronet knew that a Bill for that put pose
Ltd been brought in fur this Country, and it was
kiis intention eitheite propose a similar 8,11 fur Ire-,
land, or to move in the Committee w extend the
Bill already befere the House to Ireiond. With ye-
grad to what had fallen from the- Right Hon. Barr.
upon the propriety of enforcing the residt.nce of the
Clergy ahs,,lutdy, and nut giving the Archbishops
and I..iisliop a discretionary power to ent:Acc resi-
denee,, or permit abs,:nee, as they though, proper,
he,begged to obset %:e, that from the ttmallne.s vf• the
Livings in Ireland,•plinaliti,:3 had b. come almost n.c.-
pessary, and it was obvious in the ease of 1111r,11130
an absolute residence could not he'enferced. l'ltere
were other cases tvbili must occur to every Gent,le•
man's mind ripen 'the subject, in which 'tttp.proiolOy
of having a diactetionary power vested scone where
must be obvious, and cert Only it could not be better • '
vested
.than in the hands of the At,:ltbistiops and
Bishops.. .. .
, • Sir JOHN , NEWPORT said, ho knew that in - '
'eases of pluralities, complete residence could rot
be enforced, but he thought in all other cases it
might, without giving it discretionary power to the
'Bishops. ,
The 0114 NCELLOR of the E.N.7:144.4 L' ER
observed, that the eN.cuses admitted fur Att.-lose. •
deuce % ponsi,Llably fewer in this, Bill than in the.
Ads for, this Ccieniry. After a few ivords in expla-
eation from. Sit Jolty NNWPOLIT, _li e Dell was. read a

had hitherto been made ;' and it would be an itt
terforence with the pToperly.of those who had vest,
edlheir money in India Stock, - under shill an irn-
-pression, to limi(or suspend them without neces-
sity. He:delircoated =any langna4e that would have
the pffed of giving any- decision upon the. point, at
issue, before the whole case should be beferelhe
House, and saw no reason- to defer his motion for
referring the Yetition to the committee.
Mr:
,QI..PONSON,Yr did not objea to referring
the PetitiOn t'o: the Committee, but could not give_
his assent` to the. prayer of it. It might be right or
it might bp wrong to grant the money,: but that
was to'be proved by what the Company could-spew.
It appeared, however,. that the money required was
to be agift, not a loan. It appeared that,' if it were
not granted, the India Company could not maintain
its credit or pay its dividends. Whatever course
the House might adopt, whether. to break down the
Company, Or to continue its Incinopoly, lie trusted
that the fullest information would be afforded to the
public upon the subject, and the past delusions clout
away. As it appeared that the Committee had
reached nearly the end of its labours, he hoped,
that, w hen the Report should .bopresented, all the
evidenee.and other documents upon which it might
be. founded 'should aho be printed,' in -order that
the public might know the real situation of. the
Company, and whether it would be tbr the benefit
--of the nation that the monopoly 'should be con-
tinued.

The. CLIANCELLOR of ,thr EXCHEOER
thought-it wrong to ettempt to anticipate now what .
the duty of the. House might be, on the Report
which the Committee Ivey make on the .Petition,
and on the general state of the Company's affeirs.
The Committee would probably find it proper tore-
commend some specific measures on which ,the
House would have to form its opinions on distinei
grounds. With respe& to the necessity of a no-
tice, he thought that form, not requisite where a
Petition was merely to be presented, and put in a
train.of,inquiry, The Committee ,now sitting was
the fittest Committee'to which to refer the 'Petition,
and nobody thought of referring it le any other. It
was fettler unnecesSary to make- any expo:se reserv,.
'Mien of freedom of judgment, when. nn opinion
was called for till mature examioatioa should, have
.taltep •plaCe. He deeied that the accumthodetion
now asked by the Company would be a gift, as some
'3sarted ; the Petition ,elledged that the Pnblic was
indebted to the Con;paey Many leaudred.thouttand
pounds. There was no doubt on the mind' of any
perion'cOnvers'ant with the subjea that tills was the
tatand it. was right to give the opportunity of the
proof by reterritrr w ,the Committee, Before any
retitsn relief to the Company, it was
essential' to ascertain whether the Couptry had not
contribdted 'to Cause the distress that rendered that
relief necessary. It was perhaps the most grave
ouestion that ever'came to be deliberated, how far
the 'abandonment of the Company's affairs to unre-
lieved distress may tend to plunge the nation at
large, into an irremediable state of distraction. it
was matter of caution also, if the relief. was to be
given, to avoid giVipg ilia way that would render
it a Curse **her than a beueat. Whether the re-
lief was to be given or not, or in whatever way it
was to be given, every one ought to abstain cautious-
ly froni any thibq thateouhl tetid.to prejudie‘i or in-
jure the interests of a Cotiopany so widely con-
neeled with the Public. Thus 'Leuch he' thought it
-necessary to state, to prevent some unguarded.elt-
presSions thrown out on the other side from doing
the injury that might otherwise arise from them.
Mr. Tsuoit and Mr. PoNsosfey emtlained. The
latter said, if it was a loan the Company wanted,
they might borrow on their own credit. .
Mr. TIEI4VEY said, the Company, by the At'it
of t7gB, was entitled to-add 2,000,0001. to its ea-
which was suppoSed equal to 4,000,0001. zit
the market. This proceeding. not being 'adviseable,
.from .the eircpmstances of the limes, an MI was
passed last year'for idising'2,ooo,oool. on the Coda-
parry's Bonds, as a Measure of temporary conve-
-nience: Ot that transition he-.approved. With
respect to the, claims of. the, Company upon the
Public, he s thoUght theraniounted.to ;I-1,000,0001.
at least. He thought it, .hoWeverea state of corn-
. parative distress, that Could have brought the COrn-
panyto ask, for the accommodation now. reqUired.
But: the Company was liar*, dealt with when an
unbvourabie statement was given of its affairs-with-
out any themtnents befere the House to ,warrant ii. '
Any injury done to the CoMpany's credit would be
attended with mischief so wide and alarming, that
it was twitter of ' the moat serious moment to give
circulation to such ideas without being warranted in
pointof faCi. With.respea to the renewal of- the
Charter, he had his own opinions, and would state
them frank!, when that measure should come to be
considered: With respect to.thepresent claim, the
Company having. accommodated, the Public, ,and
haVing sutlered, in consequence, was at -least end.:
fled to attentive consideration when it' came to sk',
relief in its turn. With 'respect to the-500,0d01.
promised arnioally tq the Publip from the expetteci
profits of the Company; by a Noble Lord (Melvill4-
w had king presided, ever tali'bidet a LTA's; . the
Company' was no party to that epgstgentent ; and if
the Noble;,l4ord made
/ail Aver sanguine statement,
Which was peva, realized' the Company-ought not
to be Wanted. The 500,0001. had never been paid;_
decease' the Circumstances'. in whit h it was to be
paid had never arisen. ,The Committee, after' in-
vestigating the matter of the Petition now before ~
the House, would report their opinions thereupon,
. •
with the grotinds Of those opinions, The relief to
be given was like that given on former occasions to
.private merchants, by a loan of ExCheqner-BillS,
aftirwards repaid with advantage to the Publie.—.
The cause of wilting the loan was the same, the
stagnation of,trade, from the want of access to the
usual markets.. It was 'certainly desirable that the

TILE Gazelle Of last night contains the details.of
t -
several very gallant Naval ACiiOns, awl though they
ale all entitled to great praise, yet we
.cannot but
partiCulnly.eall the attention of our Readers. to the
account given by Capt. M..M.t7LWELL., of an attack
made by the Alceste, tinder his command, in com
pany ',midi the Mercury, and Grasshopper Brig, in
the mouth of Cadiz Harbour, upon a Spaniill Con-
voy, under the proteetion of about 20 Gun-boats,
a numerous-Trait of .Flying Artillery on' the beach,
and, as Capt. MAXWELL expresses it, in the teeth
of eleven Sail of the Line.

Of " FertniNA ND the Seventh," had, been. proclaimed

late Prime Minister, and,. ift eifeEt,ler of the,
Kingdom. All the p'roper'ty of the latter, to as
enormous amount, had been confiscated. BY
the same channel, reports 'have been 'brought)
stating that a Deputation of the' chief Grandees
had been appointed to wait on BUONAPARTE,
Who was then - at Bayonne, requesting him to
order 'the removal of all the French ,trooPs from
out of the Spanish territories, as, otherwise, they
might tall a sacrifice to the general vengeance of the
people, •who seemed determined to, support the ho•
nonr and independence of their, country. Such in
appeal, however, was hardly likely to be success-
ful, as BUONAPARTE)3 pride, as well as his private
WiShes, might revolt against such, an appa'rent me.

naCe. The persons now called. topower, in order
support the new Government, are highly estceuwJ
for their 'worth and patriotism, and were notoriously
adVerse to the late Minister. The fate of the latter

may possibly operate as a. warning to BuovArAnTs
himself, since GOODY was as high in Spain, with re-
ference to the extentof his'pOwer, as Buos APA lITE is
in France, and bad the Army at his command. tut the
Prince of Peace is now the miserable inhabitant of 3
common jail, and by this time has perhaps paid the
forfeit of his ambition and rapabity upon a scaffold'
As the Duke D'lmtsTano,' who was sent late
e;ile by Gobov, is now, the chief man to whom
the Nation looks with conPdence, the Spanish
Merchants in London are induced to adopt those
rumours: which state, that the Revolution has really
been effeaed by the spirit- of their Countrytnello

time will, however, determine the
