A.er the private bnsinese had been disposed J,
same discussion took place upon the remaining reac-
lutions of Sir G, CLERK with respect to the broad
and narrow gauge. The resolutions were ultimately
agreed to.

- Sir R. PEEL gave notice of hia intention, in the
course of the debate on the Protection of Life and
Property (Ireland) Bill, to enter into an explanation
respecting the charges made against him by Lord
GEORGE BENTINCK respecting his conduct in re-
ference to the Catholic Emancipation Bill, in the years
1825, 1827, and 1829.
The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER gave notice
of his intention, in consequence of the length of the
debate on the Coercion Bill, on Monday next to
move that the existing Sugar Duty be continued for
one month, in order to give time for the discussion
of the various amendments of which notice had been
given.
Mr. HUME thought this would be a most desirable
course to adopt.

The adjourned debate on the Protection of Life
and Property (Ireland) Bill was then resumed by
Sir A. ARMSTRONG, who, in a most indistinct tone,
opposed the Bill.

Mr. BENNET thought that after the long delay
that had taken place there was no necessity for the
measure. He had considered the subject long and
anxiously, and he was now convinced that he ought
not to support the Bill.

Captain LAZARD opposed the Bill.
Mr. HENLXY also opposed the Bill. He would not
vote for a Bill like this for England, nor could he
vote for such a Bill for Ireland.

Sir H.W. BARRON opposed the measure, and ex-
pressed his firm conviction that the Bill woad totally
fail in the objects it had in view. All such'measures
would of necessity fail until Parliament went to the
root of the evil—the poverty and the wretched con-
dition of the people of Ireland. The measure, if
carried, would cause great agitation in Ireland.
Captain FITZMAURICE supported the second read-
ing of the Bill.
Mr. HAWES opposed the Bill.
Lord FRANCIS EGERTON stlnnal4,A ccuiniu
reading of the Dill.
On the motion of Mr. S. CRAWFORD, the debate-
was adjourned till to-morrow..
The other orders of the day were then disposed of,
and the House".adjourned.

The spirit of antagonism marks every step of the
onward movement of the Corn Bill in the Upper
House. Whenever a grand illumination is advertised
to induce the public to resort to any place of
entertainment, the great display of the pyrotechnic
art is generally reserved to the last. The Pro-
tectionist Peers have reversed this order of tactics—
all their fireworks were blazed off upon the second
reading of the Bill. Lord STANLEY was their "feu
de joie." Perhaps they miscalculated the strength of
their resources. It is clear they have exhausted
themselves ; they have no new materiel at command.
If they send up a rocket now and then, it as
much as they can do. The battle kept up between
the Monopolists and Ministerialists reminds us of
what many naturalists and travellers relate of the con-
tests they have witnessed between certain birds called
boobies" and others called " men-of-war frigates."
Ile latter waylay the former whilst repairing to
their nests with the fish they have caught for their
young, and, by repeated blows on their back, compel
them to disgorge their predatory spoil, which is never
lone without the utterance of a scream. In the
same way the advocates of free trade in the Lords
have vigilantly pounced upon the Protectionists, ruffled
all their feathers, and forced them to drop the produce
which they flattered themselves they could steathily
hurry on with to their agricultural nests. This, how-
-..ver, they did not accomplish without having to listen
to many a piteous moan. The first bird attacked
was the Duke of Bucxuscuam. His Grace knew the
strength of his adversary, and resigned his
prey at the first blow. Lord STANHOPE,
From an ardent regard to his species, got up a fright-
ful scream, butlall in vain ; thirty-three "men-of-war
i'rigates" appeared in the field, and the fish was lost for
wer., The Earl of WrcKLow was the next to try to
-each his nest. His fish was a "fixed duty." The tame
ill-luck attended him. The "frigates" were on the
look-out—another fight, another scream, and off flew
the " boobies." How many more similar disasters
These unfortunate birds may wish to meet, we cannot
livine ; but we should recommend them a little
repose.
The debate upon the fixed duty amendment pre-
sented nothing new in the shape of argument. The
\farquis of CLANRICARDE sought to detract from the
sigh opinion justly entertained of the merits of Sir
itOBERT PEEL as a Minister, not only in both Houses
f Parliament, but by the country at large.
We think the Marquis missed his aim. We are
,trictly a practical people, and Sir ROBERT is essen-
tially a practical man. As such he is eminently quail-
led to sway the destinies of our great empire, whose
commercial interests are so extensive, and at the same
• ime so artificially interwoven one with another. The
Premier is an apt scholar of the Baconian school. He
'wilds and acts upon experience. The prosperity of
:his country would be fearfully hazarded if we were
governed by statesmen of a mercurial temperament,
who would rashly embrace every plausible theory on
Its first promulgation. One precipitate step, in a com-
plicated state of society like ours, might engulf us
in irretrievable ruin. When great changes are sug-
gested, it is not impolitic on the part of public men
in office to resist their rapid adoption, with
the view of securing their being sifted in
all their bearings in every possible way,
till repeated reflection, as well by the represents-
;lves as by those they represent, and till, in some
instances, experiments upon a small scale having first
been successfully tried, shall yield us the strongest
presumption that national prosperity will be accele-
rated by developing the principles recommended.
Supposing Sir R. PEEL had years ago (and before he
had experimented upon their principles, as he has
done by his tariff of 1842, his foreign cattle im-
portation scheme, his Canada Corn Bill, &c.), had
sympathised with the opinions of the League, would
he then have had the slightest chance of carrying
them through the process of legislation ? Certainly
not. Nay, had he been conscientiously convinced
long ago of what he is now, and propounded his pre-
sent measures, the probability is he would not, for
years to come, have had the power he now enjoys of
effectuating them. The truth flashed out unwittingly
From the Marquis of OLLNRICARDE when he said,
Every one of Sir H. PEEL'S changes had been with
the current of the moment ; and a single instance
could not be found on record in which he had
changed his opinion in the House of Commons and
had been beaten upon that question." This involves
no mean compliment. It admits a practical sagacity •
which constitutes, a chief desideratum in the mind of

then, by the aid of " spicy" personalities, which he
and his gifted opponent equally delight to revel in,
we augur their oratorical rivalry will be entertaining
enough.
Lord STANLEY has again pressed for an ap-
peal to the country. His effected ignorance
of all constitutional rule is palpable. He
would unnecessarily appeal to the passions
of the people, when he knows that one of the funda-
2iental advantages of a legislature is to pass laws
