Four o'Clock, and hortly afterwards Mr. Putman, Yeo-
man Usher of the Black Rod, came to the table and
summoned the House to the. House of Peers to hear the

since the meeting of Parliament.

The SPEAKER had to acquaint the House that he
had received a letter from Mr. • Daniel O'Connell,
dated " Merrion-square, 4th September, 1841, which
with the permission of the House he should read :—" Sir
—Having been returned to serve in Parliament for the
county of _death as well as the county of Cork, I beg to
st ttr, fir the information of the House, that it is my
intention to elect, and I do elect to serve,' for the
county of Cork, and should there be any other act
which it it necessary for me to do in order that a new
writ may lie immediately issued fur the county of Meath,
ready to do it."
The sPEAßElt,said _the. letter of the lion. Gentle-
man had evidently been written under the impression
that no petition had been presented against the return

sented, he could not, according to the rules of that House,

proper.
