of a question the most momentous that could
come into discussion ; for ;Le question of that
night was, whether Deland should be preserved in
her allegiance to the BritiSir Crown by concilia-
tion and justice, or driven into the arms of the en-
emy, by injustice,' tyranny, and oppression ? This
was. the real question belote the House, and not
merely the Catholic claims, which formed only a
part of the mass of grievances of which Ireland had
to complain, and, on which he would trouble the
House of Commons more at leegth"at amore fa-
vourable moment. Indeed, he had no intention of
uttering a word that night, and the few words he
had uttered were extorted from him by the tone and
the tenets which charaelerisecl the speech of. the
Right Honourable Secretary. Who, iodeed,
hear, without feelings of indignation, tfhit justice
and right should be refused to a people, merely
because some of their advocates may have used
indecorous and intemperate language• in the as-
sertion of their claims ? The Right Honourable
Secretary called on the Irish Catholics to come
forward in an attitude of submission and humility;
with a tone and language that bespoke meekness,
moderation, and forbearance. Bet whi!e he was
thus demanding from the Catholics every demon-
stration of mildness, submission, and docility, he
was himself making nse of language, and insisting
on 'topics, which no men, conscious of their well,.
tude and of the justice of their claims, could have
temper to listen to, or patience to endure. He
should not now trouble the House any fUrther, but
concluded with moving, That the House do now
adjourn.

Adjourned to this day, when the debate will be
returned.

QUIS Died. FALSUM AUDLAT?

L UiVDQIV,
TUESDAY, FEORTIAIIY 4, 1312.

We feel great regret in staling that the melan-
choly confirmation of the fall of Valencia has ar-
rived. The intelligence %as brought in the 'French
Papers which arrived last night. Valencia capitu-
tuldted on the gth ult, and the 'whole of the Spanish
army surrendered prisoners of war. SUCHET has
been created Duke of Albufcra. His cruelty, as
well as his successes, have very naturally recom-
mended him to the favour of BUONAPARTE. The

other news in these papers is not very important,
nor of a more recent date than that which has al-

ready reached us.

_ The Hermes, which has Arrived after a passage of
36 hours (the shortest ever known), has brotight a
Corunna paper, which states, that Ciutlad Rodrigo
surrendered on the 19th till. We shall 'ejoice most
sincerely to have it in our power .to lay before our
readers an official confirmation of this intelligence.

The official account of the capture of the Corcyro

frigate by the Eagle, has been received. She had
wheat on board fur Corfu. The two other frigates
got into Brundibi. We had not a man either killed
or wounded.

We are sorry to say that our port letters (which
we live nut room to insert) mention the loss of
several vessels, in the gale of Sunday night.

The extreme length of the Parliamentary Debate
prevents us from inserting this day the concluding
Speech of the Solicitor-General in the Court of King's
Bench, Dublin, on the trial of Mr. KIRWAN.—
The Judge's Charge to the Jury has not yet arrived.
The Defendant was informed, that, notwithstandin&
his conviaion, he was perfealy at liberty to go at
large, upon the recognizance which he had already
provided.—After the verdict .was given, the opinion
of the Jury was taken by the Bench, upon the
point which was yesterday argued by Mr.Buallowxs,
against the validity of the Indictment, respeCting the
parishes of St. Mary, St. Thomas, and St. George,
when they declared as follows:—" We end that
the parish of St. Mary, for which the eleaion took.
place, is in the city of Dublin," and thereby sup-
,
porting the Indictment.

The late Colonel CHILDERS was son-in-law to
Lord EARDLEY, and brother-in-Jaw to Lord SAY
and SELF..

The Restr►.9iotas to the present Regency, and the
Restrictions to our Cares Awl Trouble, may both
end on the same day; the Legislature fixed the pe-
riod of the one, and the Minister the other, in ap-
appointing the 18th of This Month for the Draw-
ing of the Rich but Small Lottery of only 8,000
Tickets.

The Town was scarcely ever known to be so full
as at present. Last October`, the Metropolis was,
comparatively speaking, a Desert ; yet, in that
Month's Lottery, such was the Demand for Tickets
and Shares, that it was necessary to call in Country
Supplies to answer Town Commissions. From these
circqmstances, do Fortune's dilatory Suitors at pre-
sent see no risk of being speedily deprived of an op-
portunity to participate, on the 18th instant,. of
Twenty Thousand Pound Prizes, and other great
C'yitals, in a Scheme of only Eight Thousand
Tickets.

EtizAD.—This day the Lord. Mayor and Alder-
men, after inspecting the returns, ordered it to fa►l
ad. per peck. Quartern loaf
