LONDON,
TUESDAY EVENING, APRIL 11, 137.,

•
In the House of LORDS yesterday the proceedings consisted
5n the reception of petitions—principally on the Church-rate
•iaestion.
In the House of COMMONS, after a considerable quantity of
viVate business had been gone through,
The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQDEU stated in reply to Mr.
'REVOR, that it was his intention to adhere to the day (Ist of
:Aar), fixed for proceeding with the Church-rate Bill.
With reference to the distress in the North of Scotland the
Right Hon. Gentleman said that he deprecated discussion at
14esent. Government had despatched Sir J. HILL with power
to aid in extreme cases. Mr. lIUME thought no funds ought to
I,:tve been advanced by the Government, while the House was
fitting, without its sanction. The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHE-
4,uza said that Government had not in this matter acted cen-
t ,ary to the usages cf the House.
The conduct pursued by the Commander of the- Forces,
a....painst whom, it may be recollected Captain BERKELEY last
ireek urged sornethinx in the nature of a charge of using his
rilee for party purposes, formed -the subject of some explana-
i,,ry conver;ation between Lord G. • SOMERSET, Captain
-.13%14KE1.111T, Mr. 1.-It'mg, and Mr. SCARLETT.
The Ord.w of the Day for the Third Reading of the Irish
"Alunicipal Bill was then read. The ilitr;e was thin, the de-
il,mte singularly dull, and the whole proceedings possessed little
interest o:hcr than that necessarily inseparable front the mea-
:Aire itself. It will be seen that Mr. Gout.nuas, who opened
17ve dcbat', like Mr. IlAmtt.ToY, Lord STANLEY, and the other
'Tories who opposed the Bill, were remarkably chary of coining
),ear the prieciiiies of the preposition, but found it More con-
,enient to dwell upon mere matters of detail, wide of the real
licestion at issue. At about I o'clock an adjournment of the
..ebate was curried try a mejority in favour of Ministers.

`The debate on the Irish Municipal Reform Bill
lixas again brought on last night in the House of Com-
inonA, and atij:ntrucd
_at a late :tour to th.s
There was little or no novelty in the arguments ad-
threcd, for- the field of controversy having beers al-
r?adv fully reaped, a few scanty gleanings were all that
cou;tl have been exnee:ed. Mr. GOULBURN opened
the discussion, and in the true, unleavened Tory
:spirit, by urging as his chief objection to the Mu-
nicipal Reform measure, that it would prevent the
Protestant Church from continuing to nourish in all
its rank luxuriance throughout Ireland. It
would be dctrimental, he said, to " that great national
blessing"—curtail " the refreshing influence of Cler-
gymen"—therefore, he would have none of it. "To
the Protestant Church," continued the Right Hon.
Gentleman, " they roust look for all amelioration and
improventent in the condition of, the It ish people"—
that is to sav, Ireland must look to the intolerance of

a minority, for the means of promoting the IxeVan:
of a majority : The Catholic portion of the po-
pulation arc to be wholly left out of accotnt ; they
are by no means to be legislated for ; their inte-
rests, and hopes and wishes, are not in the slightest
degree to be taken into consideration ; it is the
Irish Protestant and his Chtireli that are the only
things worth an English State: an's reflection ; and it
is through these, and these only, that Inland must
work out her redemption. , Clever logic this, as Ratli-
cormack and Carrickshock prove beyond the power of
refutation l We strongly suspect that Mr. GotiL-•
BURN'S reasoning will have the tffect of nicking the
Protestant Church more unpopular throughout Ireland

than it is even at present ; by shoving the people
there that it is the only obstacle that now stands be-

tween them and Municipal Reform. But for this dis-
astrous Church, we would grant you, say the Tories,
the, Reform you demand. But its abuses are dear to
us ; its time-hallowed sinecures things not to be
spoken of without veneration ; therefore, as your Mu-
nicipal Reform will go far to put the Establishment on
a proper footing, we must take special care to prevent
'•ou from obtaining it. Was ever such a suicidal
course adopted as this ? Cannot the Tories see that
it will do the Church more harm than even another
tithe-carnage ? When once they perceive that justice

is to be denied them, on account of this bloated Es-
tablishment, will not Irishmen declaim against it with
more energy than ever? Will they not combine—
confederate against it, and place its Clergymen
in a position, compared with which their pre-

sent is one of prosperity Lord STANLEY
svho urged the same objection as Mr. GOULBURN,
tleclared that another reason he had for refusing Mu-
nicipal Reform to Ireland, was, that she was not yet
in a fit state to receive it., The pear was not yet ripe.
No, nor ever will be in Tory eyes, 'till they regain
office, when it will be at once discovered that then is
the time for granting Ireland a sort of snug, quiet,
half-and-half Corporate Reform, that shall be the
name, but not the thing—the shadow but not the sub-
stance. Mr. BULWER well observed that there was
but one of two courses to pursue—either to repeal the
Catholic Emancipation and Reform Bills, or else to
grant the Municipal measure. This is putting
the question on its proper footing, and whatever the
'Tories may allege to the contrary, if they be not
prepared to adopt the one course, they must perforce
adopt the other. The debate will, we suppose, be
brought to a close to-night, when we confidently ex-
pect a majority equal to the last.

We observe in a Morning Paper, distinguished for
i!s hostility to the Dissenters, and to the cause of civil
and religious liberty, a report of a Church-rate meeting
held at Reading yesterday evening, by which it is
made to appear that the opponents of the abolition
had it all their own way. Until we receive some
account of this meeting from a more impartial and
honest source, we shall suspend our judgment
respecting it. All that is clearly evident from the
report to which we have alluded, is, that a posse
