PORTUGAL.

Project of Law submitted to the Portuguese Cortes on
the 13th inst. by M. Campos, Minister of Finance. From
Lisbon Papers received to the 18th inst. inclusive :

" Gentlemen—l had conceived a hope that, so soon as
the preliminaries of the Session had been disposed of, and
the Chambers had proceeded to business, I should have
been able to lay before you an account of the expenditure
of the year terminating last June, with the estimates of the
new financial year, accompanied by such accounts and
documents as would have thrown light upon these subjects
—such, for example, as an account of the debt subsequent
to the Ist of August, 1833—0 f the expenses which it
would be necessary to incur until the end of the present
year, and of the liquidation of Titulos and other debts.
" Yet notwithstanding all the assiduity that has been de-
voted to this subject, it has been as yet impossible to over-
come the difficulties, and satisfy my anxiety. 1 trust, how-
ever, within fa few days to be able to discharge this obliga-
tion, and to put the Chamber in a situation, if not of form-

inn a very precise opinion of the state of the public finances,
at least of acquiring a knowledge upon the subject more
extensive than could have been hoped from the confessedly
brief time I have been permitted to take it into consideration.

" As, however, the first necessity of the nation is, that
the public service should not suffer, I am 'obliged, by the
force of circumstances, to separate from the general state-
ment which is to accompany the budget, that part which I
have to-day the honour of submitting to your consideration,
with a view of providing that remedy which the urgency of
our situation imperiously demands.
" From the moment that the present Administration
took charge of the public affairs, they not only found no
disposable funds with which they could meet the regular
expense of the public service—but, on the contrary, they
found a part of those resources, which were destined for
the service of other years, already swallowed up by anti-
cipation.

" The monthly payments for the contract of tobacco,
hey found mortgaged for 930 coutos of reis ; the Custom-

house revenues—the permanent and most secure resource
of the State, burdened with bills by anticipation for more
than 400 contos, 100 contos of which become payable at
the end of next June ; besides 500 contos of Treasury
Bills ; 200 contos of the contract of Lindemberg, and
bills upon England for 87,0001. sterling, which it was ne-
cessary to accept—all of which shall be laid before you.
" In these embarrassments, with a debt in arrcar to be
paid—with a current expense, which it was necessary to
supply—with but a small revenue at its disposal, and that
already in part consumed by anticipation ; the Administra-
tion ardently desired the re-assembling of the Chambers,
convinced that from their wisdom alone would proceed such
an impulse, as would at once place the administration of
our finances upon true principles—provide for the indispo-

THE KING V. GREENHILL.

The ATTORNEY-GENERAL applied to be allowed to take this
case out of the peremptory paper, and to bring it on as a mo-
tion. He had affidavits which stated that Mr. Greenhill had
not been allowed to have access to his children, and that he
verily believed that Mrs. Greenhill was about to depart with
them out of the jurisdiction. To prevent this it was necessary
to apply to the Court that the case might be immediately
heard and decided. Mr. Justice Patteson had made an order
for the children to be delivered up to Mr. Greenhill, but that
order had been suspended by the proceedings before the Court,
and these proceedings had not been carried forward to a deci-
sion because the Court hoped that some arrangement might be
made between the parties, and had enlarged the rule for the
purpose. That hope was now, however, totally frustrated.
Mr. Greenhill had written letters to which he had received no
answer; and, under the circumstances already stated, applied
to the Court to interfere, and to decide at once on the ques-
tion now before it.

Lord DENMAN and the other Judges, after conferring to.
gether, doubted whether even in this case, where they stated
that they felt willing to do their utmost to hasten the decision,
it would ho right to the other suitors of the Court to take the
case out of its turn. They would state the result to the At-
torney- General to-morrow (this) morning.

YOLAND'S SPECIFIC SOLUTION, for the
cure of all disorders of the kidneys, loins, bladder, and
urinary organs in both sexes, is universally allowed by all medical men
who have seen its effects, and by those who have taken it, to be by far
the best, the safest, and the only remedy ever discovered for these corn.
plaints, frequently curing in a few hours, after other remedies have
failed. By a peculiar chemical process (known only to the proprietor),
combining the different ingredients, which, acting on each other, renders
the whole more efficacious, is the cause of Yoland's Specific being su.
perior to all other medicines.
Sold, in sealed packets, at 2s. 9d. and 4s. 6d. each, with plain directions,
so that individuals may cure themselves with secrecy and safety.
This medicine has never been known to fail; but to prove its efficacy,
should it, from any accidental circumstances, not make a perfect cure,
the Proprietor pledges himself (on application being made to his agents,
to place the party under the care of a respectable Surgeon until cured)
free of all expense.

ANOTHER Proof of the extraordinary effects of
BLAIR'S GOUT and RHEUMATIC PILLS.

" To Mr. Prout, 229, Strand.
" 8, New Inn-passage, New Inn, London.
" Sir,.--I feel pleasure in acknowledging the essential benefit. I
have derived from your Blair's Gout and Rheumatic Pills, which
relieved me from a most violent attack of Rheumatic Gout, that
had rendered me helpless for eight weeks. I hate been frequently
subject to such attacks, which have confined me on each occasion
for many months, and never found relief from any other medicine.
I shall recommend them to every one I know under similar dis-
tressing circumstances ; and am, Sir, gratefully obliged, your obe-
dient servant,
" May 20, 1835.

,f J. HAMILTON."

These Pills are taken without the least care or attention, by
either sex, young or old, and have the peculiar property of entirely
removing the disease without debilitating the frame, which is uni-
versally left in a stronger and better state than before the malady
commenced. And there is another most important effect belonging
to this medicine--that it prevents the disease flying to the brain
stomach, or other vital part.
Sold by Thomas Prout, 229, Strand, London ; and by his ap-
pointment, by all respectable Medicine Venders in the kingdom.
Price 2s. 9d. per Box.—Ask for Blair's Gout and Rheumatic Pills;
and see that the signature of " Thomas Prout" is on the outside o
the wrapper.

are particularly adapted, being prepared with the Sulphate of Qui-
nine, Extract of Chamomile Flowers, and the most choice Sto-
machic and Aperient Drugs of the Materia Medics.
They have in all cases proved superior to every other Medicine in
the Cure of Stomach and Liver Complaints, Indigestion, Loss of
Appetite, Sensation of Fullness, Sick Headach, Pain and Oppres-
sion after Meals, Habitual Costiveness, Flatulence, Shortness of
Breath, Stomach Coughs, Spasms, Worms, and Fits in Children
and Grown Persons, and all Diseases incident to the Stomach and
Bowels. They are also truly efficacious in the Cure of Colds,
Agues, Asthmas, Rheumatism, Gout, Jaundice, Dropsy and Gra-
vel, and an excellent Restorative after any excess, or too free indul-
gence at table, as they gently cleanse the bowels, strengthen the
stomach, sweeten the breath, cheer the spirits, brace the nerves,
induce a healthy action of the liver, improve digestion, and in-
vigorate the whole system. Females who value good health
and personal appearance, should never be without them, as
they purify the blood, remove obstructions, pimples, cuta-
neous eruptions, sallowness, &c., and give the skin, a beauti-
ful, clear, healthy, and blooming appearance. Persons of a ple-
thoric habit, who are subject to headaches, fits, giddiness, dim-
ness of sight, or drowsiness, singing noise in the ears, which indicate
too great a flow of blood to the head, should be particular to take
them frequently. They are so mild and gentle in their action, that
children and persons of all ages may take them at any time, as they
do not contain mercury or any ingredient that requires confinement
or restriction of diet. Many healthy aged individuals, some of one
hundred years and upwards, make it a rule to take them two or
three times a week, by which they remove the causes that pro-
duce disease, preserve their health, and keep off the infirmities of
age, retaining, in a surprising degree, all the energy, vigour, viva-
city, and cheerfulness of their youthful days. They should be kept
in every family as a remedy in case of sudden illness, for, by their
prompt administration, Cholera Morbuc, Cramps, Spasms, Fevers,
Apoplexy, and other alarming complaints, which too often prove
fatal, may be speedily cured or prevented. Numerous patients,
whose cases had been considered hopeless, have been restored to
sound health by them. This can be proved by the testimony of
thousands, and shown by letters from numerous patients who have
benefitted by their unrivalled efficacy. To describe all their ex-
cellent properties, and the cures they have performed, would fill
volumes, and exceed credibility ; in fact, there is scarcely any
disease to which the human frame is subject that they will not
either prevent or cure, and none in which they can possibly do
harm.

EXCISE REGULATIONS.

TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN.
SI/t,---Allow me to point out one of the many hardships
of the Excise Laws, viz. :—I am a wholesale spirit dealer,
town :114 am obliged to remove my stock from one part of the
to another, and on applying at the Excise-office to
Iflave my license (which cost me 10/.) transferred. I am in-
orzned it cannot be done, as the house, and not the indivi-
dual, is licensed. I am, therefore, called upon to pay 51
.fora fresh license to July, the time when my present one

The license fora house open to the public, I am
ready, to admit ought not to be transferable ; but it is not

of a wholesale dealer.

HISTORY OF THE COJTIMONERS OF GREAT
BRITAIN AND IRELAND.
Br JOHN SURrEp P.M
VOL. 111. Henry Colburn, 1836.
We have received the third volume of this wotk,
which, according to the title page, will be perfected
._lll four volumes. No nation ever produced a record
!cl which her people could turn with more just and
laudable pride than may Englishmen to this history
of our illustrious Commoners. It is indeed a treasure
which
every person will be most eager to possess.
The present volume is embellished with a half-length
portrait of Mr. Coke, of Holkhatn, beautifully exe-
tUted, Intelligence and benevolence are expressed in
:every feature, of his face, as expressive in itself as any
live ever looked at. Mr. Coke is, in
appearance at
eas, an admirable specimen of " the fine old English
entlealan"—a race, which Mr. Burke assures us, is
no danger of becoming extinct. We would almost
lentUre to test a man's love for his country by his re-
card for this history of British and Irish Commoners.

FRANKS' SPECIFIC SOLUTION OF COPAIBA, (a
certain and most speedy cure for all Urethral Discharges, Gleets, Spas-
mimic Strictures, and Irritation of the Kidneys, Bladder, Urethra, and

the Medicine in their public and private practice, with the most signal
success. From the list of names of those gentlemen of the Faculty (resid-

SONNET.—By a Parisian Lads', on her Entree
in London.

Translated from the French, and inscribed to Mr. Warren.
I've seen the dew-drop fall from high,
I've seen its influence on the flower ;
I've ponder'd o'er its brilliancy,
And love its all-resplendent power;
And oft I've seen Golconda's gem
Glitter upon the diadem :
But ne'er saw I that beauteous bloom
That on my bright rhoes here is set,
Nor thought I the' could e'er assume
Such a refulgent glossy jet !
For Warren's Blacking there displays
Beauty on which I ne'er had thought to gaze.
Then, Warren, take the praise of one
Whose best of wishes thou hast won.

This Easy-shining and Brilliant Blacking prepared by ROBERT
WARREN, alb, Strand, London; and sold in every Town in the United
Kingdom.
Liquid, in Bottles, and Paste Blacking, in Pots, at fd., 12d., and IFd. each.
Be particular to inquire for Warren's, 30, Strand; all others are
Counterfeit.

REFUSAL OF CHURCH RATEs.--The voluntary
principle has again triumphed. On Thursday, the 25th ult.,
a meeting of the rate-payers was held in the Vestry-room in
Merthyr, when the Church party was beaten by a large majo-
rity. What renders this victory less galling, perhaps, to the
defeated party (though decisive of the establishment of a prin-
ciple that has long been fought for), is the admission, on the
part of a great number of the rate-payers, that they will wil-
lingly subscribe for the support of the Church--some even to
the amount' of their late rates.

Say, who is this comes hurrying by ?
'Tis Daniel of the Evil Eye 1
Avoid him, Tories, one and all,
For wheresoe'cr his glances fall,
There ruin's fiercest whirlwinds blow;
As we've good cause, alas, to know !
'Tis vain against his power to kick,
For he has sold himself to Nick,
Who 's, no doubt, glv'n him a commission
To paralyze our Opposition,
By bullying some, and, woe on woe !
Burying others in the snow.
Oh, none can tell the mischiefs great
This Fiend has brought on Church and State,
Here, and in Ireland, too, I wis,
By that infernal Eye of his ;
His slightest squint can raise a storm
Among the people for Reform;
Ile kills a parson at a glance,
And if he even smile askance,
His smile, though meant perhaps in frolic,
Gives old Mother Church the cholic.
Since he commenced his looks of spite,
All's gone wrong, and nothing right;
Ile looked at Irish Bishops ten,
And killed outright these ghostly men ;
He looked at Stanley, stern and chilly,
Who, panic-struck, upset the Dilly ;
He looked at Peel, and straight his pay
And power were placed in Schedule A ;
He looked at Alvanley, and soon
The Peer sank into the buffoon ;
He looked at old Burdett, and lo !
Frank dwindled to a " faded beau ;"
He looked at Cumberland, and down
Went Ernest's prospects of a Crown ;
He looked at Sheriff Raff,* and zounds !
That look cost Raff two thousand pounds,—
( And Brookes's waiter, too, I guess,
A handsome sum, though something less,
For Raff, whom Liberals all adore,
Had paid his bill but just before,
And as his hopes were then in clover,
lle'd given the waiter twopence over,
But when he met Dan's look, alack !
Enraged he took the twopence back ;)
Well, not content with this, Dan then
Looked at the poor dear Orangemen,
On which these helpless patriots all,
From Kenyon down to Perceval,
Fell prostrate 'neath his glance of evil,
For who can stand against the Devil ?
Destructive Fiend I God grant that, vex'd
And stern, he look at Melbourne next !
And finally, malignant Elf,
Look, Irish fashion, at himself I

r Raff, most appropriately short for Raphael.

HOUSE OF LORDS.-(-THIS DAY.)

The Lord Chancellor, Lord Plunkett, Lord Lyndhurst'
and the Earl of Devon sat this morning to hear appeals.

JNY V. BIRCH.-JUDGMENT.

This case was originally argued before the Vice-Chancellor,
who pronounced his judgment, which was appealed from. The
cause was again argued before Lord Chancellor Brougham,
who dismissed the appeal with costs. The parties then ap-
pealed to the House. The case was argued at the bar for
several days, and this morning their Lordships delivered their
judgments seriatim, and unanimously reversed the judgment of
the Courts below.

THE PEDLAR AND THE FARMER.

A Farmer in Northamptonshire, who lov'd his nightly glass,
Was sitting by the flre-side one night,
When in there came a Pedlar with Boots as bright as glass,
That the Farmer's face reflected so bright.
The Farmer fain the Boots would buy, for he had never seen
A bloom so resplendent and gay ;
But the Pedlar, who found him so enamour'd of their sheen,
Thought to make of the Farmer a prey.
Full three times the worth of the Boots he did claim;
But the Landlord, who se. se did not lack,
Told the Farmer his own Boots would show an equal flame,
If polish'd by Warren's Jet Black.
No sooner the Farmer that Blacking applied,
Tho' the leather was worn out and cracking,
Than his Boots the Pedlar's rivall'd, and his visage there he spy, d,;
Show'd so brightly by Warren's Jet Blacking.
This Easy-shining and Brilliant Blacking, prepared by ROBERT
WARREN, 30, Strand, London ; and Sold in every Town in the

VOLAND'S SPECIFIC SOLUTION, for the
cure of all disorders of the kidneys, loins, bladder, and
urinary organs in both sexes, is universally allowed by all medical men
who have seen its effects, and by those who have taken it, to be by far
thebest, the safest, and the only remedy ever discovered for these com-
plaints, frequently curing in a few hours, after other remedies have
failed. By a peculiar chemical process (known only to the proprietor),
combining the different,•iwgredieots, which; acting on each other, renders
the whole more efficacious, is the cause of Poland's Specific being su-
perior to all other medicines.

Sold, in sealed packets, at 28. 9d. and 4s. Gd. each, with plain directions,
so that individuals may cure themselves with secrecy and safety.
This medicine has never been known to fail ; but to prove its efficacy,
should it, from any accidental circumstances, not make a perfect cure,
the Proprietor pledges himself (on application being made to his agents,
to place the party under the care of a respectable Surgeon until cured)
free of all expense.
Sold, wholesale and retail, by Hannay and Co., 63, Oxford-street, Lon-
don ; and by all Medicine Venders in the kingdom.

MAR YLEB ONE.

J. Haberfield was charged with vending unstamped pub-
lications.

Francis Morris, of No. 16, Clement's-lane, was appointed
by Sir Frederick Roe to look after venders of unstamped
publications. On the previous morning he saw the prisoner
selling unstamped newspapers in Tottenham-court-road.
He gave him in charge to a policeman, when the prisoner
called out to the mob of persons who had assembled to as-
sist him, and they rescued the papers from the policeman.
Mr. RAWLINSON, after questioning the boy's father, who
said that his son acted by his desire, ordered him to
find bail.

Joseph Williams was next charged by Webster and
Franklin, two officers of this establishment, with the same
offence. Twenty-two papers were found on the prisoner,
but on his promising not to continue to sell them he was
discharged, and the papers ordered to be detained.

DAN THE DESTROYER :
A ROMANTIC BALL Xl).*
By a mad Tory Poet.

" The Irish Fiend."— Vide Times of this Morning.

He comes, the Destroyer, from Erin's meek isle,
To do all the mischief he can ;
To flatter and smile, and bamboozle the while—
Sure there never was known such a monster of guile,
As this Dragon-of-Wantley-like Dan !
He can swallow a church for his luncheon, and sup
On the steeple, as I am a sinner ;
He loves, like a Leech, a fat bishop to cup,
Can gobble at once a whole Government up,
Which he calls a mere Cabinet dinner !

Flames burst from his mouth, as from Acheron's shores,
His laugh's a grim, saturnine cough ;
He's a tail whose glib joints he can number by scores,
All sulphur and brimstone, and oh, when he roars
You may hear him at_least a mile off!

His wig is all snakes, and the sight of his nose
Would cause a weak lady to faint ;
He's claws 'stead of fingers, and scales on his toes,
And his leer so malign, as Sir Francis well knows,
There's none but a Raphael can paint.
Oh, trim up your whiskers, my Sibthorp, and fly
To our aid from the Carlton Divan ;
Discrcetest Sir Bob, moderation lay by,
Wax valiant, my _Goulburn, become our Sir Guy,
And kill us this dragon-like Dan.

Yes, kill him, or else—when you fancy, so gay,
He has run to the end of his tether,—
He will open his mouth on some fine, sunny day,
And when they're all looking a different way,
Swallow King, Lords, and Commons together ! !

See Southey's Poem of " Thalaba the Destroyer."

NEW STRAND.

This Theatre, having obtained a license similar to these
granted to the other Minor Theatres, opened last night, and
seems to have every prospect of success. The house is taste-
fully painted and decorated ; and, being well filled, had a
very cheerful appearance. The company does not contain
any stars of the first magnitude ; but it is numerous and effi-
cient as a whole, and some of the performers are of superior
talent. The orchestra is excellent ; it is conducted by Mr.
Macfarren, whose compositions have gained him a consi-
derable reputation in the musical world ; and it performed
several overtures, and accompanied the vocal music in a
highly satisfactory manner. A lively little burletta, called
The Compliments of the Season, was the first piece performed,
in which Mrs. F. Matthews personated a Yorkshire country
girl with great truth and nature ; and Mr. Matthews was
equally successful in the part of her rustic sweetheart.
It was followed by an exceedingly clever musical piece, If the
Cap fits ye, wear it ! which was admirably performed, and
received with very great applause. The plot is what is called
a Spanish one—full of bustle, intrigue, and amusing situa-
tions. In this piece Miss Rees made her first appearance in.
London, and created a very favourable impression. Her
appearance is pleasing; she sings sweetly, and acts with sim-
plicity and spirit.
The concluding piece was our old Adelphi acquaintance,
Cupid, got up with considerable splendour, and, on the whole,
well performed. Mr Wild's Cupid was a good imitation of
John Reeve ; but John Reeve is inimitable. There were two
agreeable interludes of a novel character—the overtures to
Masaniello and The Zauberfiote, performed by the orchestra,,
and accompanied by a sort of ballet of action on the stage
representing some of the leading features of each of these
pieces. These ballets were composed with great taste, and a
happy adaptation of the action on the stage to the changes in
the character of the music, and their effect was beautiful.
There was some confusion at different times, owing to mis-
management of the scenery. This, we have no doubt, will be
rectified ; and the much greater evil of the intolerably tedious
intervals between the different performances must also be
removed.

PALLISIER V. BRYANT.

This was an action brought to recover the balance of a
bill, and of an account of goods supplied.
The plaintiff is a sadler residing in the metropolis, and
the defendant is a coach proprietor. After several wit-
nesses had been examined for the plaintiff, the Counsel for
the defendant stated that the defence to the action was a
denial of the bill being accepted by the defendant, and the
amount claimed for goods delivered not being fairly charge-
able on the defendant, inasmuch he was not satisfied that
they were applied to his exclusive benefit. As, however,
defendant could not disprove by any evidence which he
could adduce the statements made by the witnesses for the
plaintiff, he must submit to have a verdict taken against him.
Verdict for the plaintiff—Damages 1621.

COMMON PLEAS-MONDAY.
London, England, 1836-01-19

THE KING V. SAMUEL BENNETT.

Sir WILLIAM FOLLETT moved for a rule to show cause
why a quo warranto should not issue, calling on the defen-
dant to show cause by what authority he claimed to exer-
cise the office of town councillor of the borough of Brid-
port.—The Coma granted the rule to show cause.

THE KING V. BOXALL AND ANOTHER.

Mr. CLARKSON moved for a rule to show cause why there
should not be a writ of procedendo issued in this case.
There was an indictment against thirty-three defendants
resident in and near Clapham, charging them with a con-
spiracy to drive the prosecutor off the road. Two of these
defendants had applied to Mr. Justice Littledale for a cer-
tiorari, and the affidavit on which that application was
granted was now before him. He should shortly state its
nature to the Court. It stated, in the first place, that great
prejudice existed against the defendants and ethers in the
neighbourhood of Clapham ; in the next, that the defendanie

were desirous of having at their trial the assistance of more
eminent men than usually attended at the Central Criminal
Court—(A laugh)—thirdly, that many nice and difficult
points of law would arise upon the trial, and therefore that
the indictment ought to be tried before one of his Majesty's
Judges ; and, lastly, that the defendants desired to have
their case decided by a Special Jury.
Lord DENMAN saw no inconvenience likely to follow from
this proceeding, except the having preferred this voluminous
indictment.
Mr. Justice LITTLEDALE and Mr. Justice WILLIAMS
concurred, and the rule was refused.

BAIL COURT.

PETERHOUSE COLLEGE, CAMBRIDGE.

Mr. PETERSDORF applied to the Court for a rule to show
cause why a mandanzus should not issue to the Master of
Peterhouse College, Cambridge, calling upon him to admit
a fellow presented by the heir and representative of Arch-
bishop Sands, by whom the College had been endowed.
Rule nisi granted.
London, England, 1836-01-19

absolute necessity of some efficient Reform in the House of
Lords is daily more and more acknowledged.
" Sire,—We never can believe that the sacred cause of our
holy religion can be injured by the correction of notorious
abuses in the Church of Ireland, or in that of England. On
the contrary, we cannot doubt that the continuance of such
abuses tends to degrade the Church in the public estimation,
and that to neglect timely and efficient Reforms is the surest
way to precipitate the downfall of that venerable Establishment.
" Nor can we believe, Sire, that any danger can accrue to
the House of Lords from such a prudent and judicious Reform
of that Right Honourable House as may bring it forward into
a state of mutual harmony and co-operation with the spirit of
the age, and with the changes which the Parliamentary and
Municipal Reforms require. Without some great operation
of this kind, the House of Lords must hang as a dead weight
upon the country, obstructing the whole political machinery
of the nation, until changes, dangerous to the existence of
that Right Honourable House, begin to be contemplated in the
public mind.
" They are no friends to the House of Lords, Sire, who re-
commend to that Right Honourable House to present itself as
a barrier of sand against the swelling tide of public opinion.
No power upon earth can now overturn the great measures of
Parliamentary and Corporation Reform, which your Majesty
has patriotically and graciously sanctioned. Every true friend
of the . House of Lords and of our admirable Constitution
must, therefore, concur in the necessity of removing an anomaly
which places the House of Lords at issue with your Majesty's
Government, with the House of Commons, and with the irre-
sistible will of this mighty nation.
" Sire,—We humbly and dutifully thank your Majesty for
graciously instituting an inquiry into the 'sufferings of our un-
happy countrymen in Ireland, and into the necessity of adopt-
_ ing poor laws for their relief. Those sufferings have long ex-
cited our warmest sympathy, and our anxious desire to relieve
them. Among all the great measures which have been sug-
gested with this object, we are of opinion that the establish-
ment of a judicious system of poor laws in Ireland is paramount
to all others. Every other civilized nation possesses some
effective system of this kind. It is strictly just, politic, and
beneficial in every possible way in which it can be contem-
plated, and we are quite sure that if it should be carried into
effect in Ireland, under your Majesty's gracious auspices, it
' will furnish one of the brightest pages which the historian will
have to record in the hitherto short, but glorious, and, we
trust, long to be prolonged, reign of your Majesty.
" Sire,—Under these views and impressions, we humbly and
dutifully implore your Majesty to continue to extend a gra-
cious and paternal protection over the rights, liberties, and
interests of your Majesty's faithful and loyal people. And we
more particularly pray, that your Majesty will be graciously
pleased to afford your royal sanction to the following mea-
