full vigour.—(Hear.) He did not think its abolition
would remedy the ills of Ireland, but it was at least
due to that country as reparation. Probably no
single measure would have the effect of redressing all
the evils of that country; lout we ought to undo all
our bad legislation, step by step. So long as a splen-
did public property, amounting to a million per annum,
existed in Ireland, devoted to the support of a church
alien to the sentiments of nine-ternths of the people,
private property ought not to he burdened with rates
for the support of the indigent. He would never
consent to any measure of coercion for Ireland, unless
remedial measures were brought forward at the same
time.—(Hear, hear.)
Mr. KEATING said that the Irish Catholic
priesthood, so far from exciting the people to outrage,
exerted a directly opposite influence. In proOf of
this he referred to the conduct and addresses of the
curate in the parish where Mr. Roe had been mur-
dered. He was opposed to this Bill, because it would
not tend to tranquillise the country : it would be a
complete failure.—(Hear.) Such a measure never
could succeed. It had in it no element of success.
Mr. FAGAN moved the adjournment of the
debate.

Sir G. GREY hoped this motion would not be
pressed. There would be abundant opportunity, in
the future stages of the Bill, for Hon. Members to
express their views. Great inconvenience had re-
sulted from discussing the principle and details of the
Bill upon a mere motion of form for passing to the
other orders of the day.
Mr. FAGAN thought it was not fair to urge him
to proceed in addressing the House at so late an
hour. He had no wish to be supposed facetious in
taking this course.
The House then divided, when there appeared—
For the adjournment . lB
Against it 289
Majority —271
Sir G. GREY said he hoped the order of the day
would be allowed to be read, upon the understanding
that the second reading of the Bill should be taken on
another night.
Mr. F. O'CONNOR then moved the adjournment
of the House, and

Mr. M. O'CONNELL having seconded the motion,
the gallery was cleared for a division ; but on our
re-admission we found that the proposition of Sir G.
Grey had been agreed to.
The House then adjourned at Half-past Twelve.
