Proposed by the Earl of WICKLOW ; seconded by the Bishop of

Noawzcu,
"That ample evidence has been afforded that Temperance, while
improving the habits of the Irish peasantry, and advancing their
social and moral condition, essentially aids in preventing disaffection
and crime—no prosecution for outrage having been instituted
against any member of a Temperance Society."
• Proposed by the Marquis of St.mo ; seconded by Lord Csmors,

" That applications for subscriptions to the Fund be made to Eng-
glish Noblemen and Gentlemen possessed of property in Ireland,
setting forth the benefits which have resulted to the Irish people
from the labours of the Rev. Mr. Mathew, and the advantages thus
rendered to Irish landlords by introducing comparative prosperity
and tranquillity into their localities."
Proposed by Lord MORPETH ; seconded by Admiral Sir EDWARD

CODRINGTON,

" That the sums subscribed be devoted to the purchase of an An-
nuity, to be transmitted quarterly to the Rev. Mr. Mathew, under
the control of four members of the Committee, the Treasurer, and the
Honorary Secretaries."
Proposed by the Earl of Aamerrerr. and SURRY; seconded by JouN

BRIGHT,

"That the various TemperanCe Societies throughout the kingdom
be applied to for co-operation and aid, less with reference to the
amount of assistance thus anticipated, than as evicence of sympathy
with the cause, and affection towards the Irish people."
