LONDON:
SATURDAY, APRIL ii, 1840.

The Marquis of WESTMEATH, in presenting a pe-
tition last night against the Irish Corporation Bill,
called the attention of their Lordships to the language
of Father Tom MAGUIRE, as he is commonly called in
Ireland. who had said " he would tell the high-born
bilious sprig of the House of Derby that in three
months he would have two millions of temperance men
who would sound the tocsin of Repeal, and effect the
liberty of eight millions of people, by driving both Whigs
and Tories out of office." At this language the Mar-
quis appears much frightened, from which we can only
infer that his cause is bad.

The Irish Municipal Bill is to be postponed
Nay

The Archbishop of CANTERBURY, though with great
reluctance, and after much pressing, withdrew his motion
fiir an address to her MAJESTY to reject the Canada
Clergy Reserves Bill. Lord MELBOURNE very properly
refused to lay the prerogatives of the Crown at their
Lordships' feet, by pledging himself not to give the
Royal Assent to the Bill, till after it had been on tne
table of Parliament thirty days, without counting the
recess, That Would have been to degrade the Crown.
The Archbishop of CANTERBURY described the
clergy as a religious community, claiming for them
till the sacredness of monks, while they—well-fed
men of the world—will submit to no monkish ob-
servances or penances. In giving up the motion,
because they could not well help it, the Prelates
growled out. their displeasure. It does rot, however,
tolkow that the 11‘11 will pass, for Lord ELLENBOROUGII
asserted that it is illegal, and cannot receive the Royal
Assent. For own parts, we would waive a point to
serve the Canadians ; to irritate them continually by
noxious, meddling, priestly legislation, will make them
throw themselves into the arms of the Americans.
Greater folly than that of our Bishops never dismem-
bered an empire.

On the question that the Report of the Printed
Papers Bill be received, Lord DENMAN explained the
alterations he proposed in the Bill, and instead of the
certificates to authenticate publications, he proposed
that every publication of either House should bear on
the face of it the authority by which it was issued, the
same as an Act of Parliament, and he proposed to ex-
tend protroction to the publication of Parliamentary
Papers in the newspapers. He objected to that part of
the origin al Bill which stays the action brought by Mr.
HowARDA

The LORD CHANCELLOR and Lord LANGDALE sup-
ported the Bill as it originally stood. After sonic con-
versation the Noble Lord came to a compromise, by
which the wording of the Bill was altered to meet Lord
DENMAN'S Views, and he withdrew his clauses.
Lord WYNFORD moved a clause to prevent the sale
of papers by the House of Commons. Lord ELLEN
BOROUGH opposed it., The Duke of WELLINGTON sup-
ported it, because the House of Commons should not be
the only authorized libellers in the kingdom. The
Noble Duke forgot the Peers. After some conversa-
ti9n the insulting amendment was withdrawn, and the
Ripon was agreed to. The Bill is to be read a third
time to-day.
In the Commons the Cambridge Election Committee
was sworn.
On the motion of Lord JOHN RUSSELL, the House
agreed to meet to-day to receive the Printed,. Papers
Bill, which it was understood would be sent rrom the
Lcris amended.
ltlr. FRESIIFIELD called the attention of the SPEAKER
E 0 it mistake in the printed report of the division ;
