striking her on the edge of her eye near the temple, which
made a dreadful wound, and to all appearance she would
loose her eye. All her friends persuaded her to go im-
mediately to a surgeon, but when I saw her, I immediately
gave her six pills of No. 2, and put on her eye a bread
and water poultice. I continued the pills, and in
one week every person who saw her was astonished. The
cure was completed in about 14 or 16 days.
I had the misfortune to have a very tremendous black
eye from a blow on the forehead. I immediately took
eight or ten pills, and in eight or ten days they performed
a cure.

felt myself very thankful that it was ❑ot my case. I lent
her the Practicle Proof, and after she bad read it, she
agreed to take them, and in a little time her son came for
more pills, and declared the Vegetable Universal Medicine
had done for her what no other doctor could do, for it
had cost her a large sum of money for advice, and she was
the same as when she first began. The Hygean Pills had
reduced the stones into sand, and she intended to con-
tinue to take them, and I have no doubt but they will be
of the most essential service so her.

I will just mention that a gentleman shoemaker who
was very much afflicted with the rheumatism in the hip,
and his wife with general debillity, both in one
month found themselves quite recovered from their
inability, and have left off taking them, quite satisfied of
the utility of keeping the Hygean Pills always by them.
The nest case is a German gentleman, who was given
over by a number of the faculty, and had been recom-
mended by the father of the person who went into business.
When he'came to me he could searcely stand, but in three
months has recovered his inabilliry, and now is following
his business. His lady likewise has been taking them all
the time of her pregnancy, and is now doing well, and
they say they will recommend them wherever they can.
They likewise continue to keep them in the house.
If I were to report every case that has come under my
notice, you would soon fill a volume with cases of small
import, such as tick-dolereux, urinary obstructions, pies,
lamb 'go, or extreme costiveness, kc. Asc. &c. therefore, I
shall just say I visited a gentleman, at the west end, who
positively told me that his own physician begged of him
not to mention names, and he would without hesitation
inform him that all his family, who are now in the country,
are in the habit of taking them. In fact the greater part
of those that have taken them once, tell me, they never
will be without them, and in general beg that their names
may not be made public, but I will gratify any inquirer,
and, upon oath, if required.
A gentleman upon the point of going to France, who has
taken at least 1,200 Hygean Pills, was with me last night.
He has received the greatest benefit, for a complication
of disorders, and has been under a number of M.D.'s,
none of whom could do him any good. This gen-
tleman has been very particular in attending to the
printed directions, and has absolutely been living on milk
ad the time that he has been taking them. He declares
be will take them to France with him, and make them
as public as possible.

Mr. C-- has take❑ them and received great be-
nefit, &c.
A neighbour has been very happy in applying them to
two of his daughters who were confined by the scarlet
fever, in the absence of the medical advisers. Imme-
diately the two doctors came they declared that the father
had done right, and advised him to continue them, as no-
thing could be of so much service. As they said, so it came
to pass, and in six days :he father told me that they were
both cured.

Two young ladies who are well acquainted with Mrs.
Coverly, found the greatest benefit from them, and are de-
termined to use no other medicine, and have widely re-
commended them.

A lady very far advanced in the dropsy took the pills
for two or three months, and it so far recovered that she
has no reason to continue them.

A gentleman who has been under several of the most
highly esteemed medical men of the city, came to me by
a recommendation from one of my friends, and has found
the Vegetable Universal Medicine, the only thing that has
removed his complaints, they being so very complicated
that the Doctors gave him up for lost, but the Pills have
done for him what nothing else could.
This gentleman's wife was positive they would be of use
to her, and she took a considerable quantity all the time
she was in a state of pregnancy, with the happiest effect.
A poor woman came to me that had been some time
at the London Hospital, and said she was recommended
to take the pills ; she had been taking calomel for some
time past, but could get no relief, therefore she was deter-
mined to go through a course of the Hygean Medicine,
and purchased some of me, but immediately took them
to the boys at the Hospital, and they pronounced them to
be nothing but calomel, therefore they told her the pills
that they would give her would be sure to cure her, and
sure enough they did, for the next ;lose she took of their
pills was the last ; the person that recommended her
to me told me that she was no more.

General Steam Navigation Company's
Office, 69, Lombard street,
Aug. 21, 1833. CHAS. BESSELL, See.

Sir—l think you will be gratified at the astonishing
progress the Vegitable Universal Medicine is making in the
neighbourhood of Whitechapel, and especially at this time,
when the cholera morbus has again made its appearance.
I am Sir, with due respect, your very humble servant,
EDWARD COVERLY.
No. 48, High-street, Whitechapel,
Tuesday, July 30, 1833.

A Gentleman in Mile-end-road, with all his family of
several children, could get no real relief from a regular
doctor. He told me that he was paying a large sum annu-
ally to a professional man, and he really did believe he
was picking his p icket. He has administered the
Vegetable Universal Medicine to all his family, and his
lady is recommending them to all her neighbours. In
consequence of their receiving such a substantial benefit
they are determined to have no other medicine than the
Hygean pills, which they so much esteem.
The next case I shall mention is a lady near the Tower,
who had laboured under a complication of disorders for the
last fourteen years, and who called at my house to make
inquiry about the astonishing cures which have been per-
formed by Mr. Morison'a Universal Medicine, and as she
was well acquainted with me for some years, she could
place confidence in the veracity of my word. I gave her a
detailed account of the wonderful good it had done me,
and lent her the Morisoniana, requesting her to inspect it
it very minutely. In a few days she sent for a I Is. packet,
and went through a regular course, and so strictly did she
pay attention to the directions, that in one month she came
to thank me for my attention to her case, and declared
that the Hygean pills had done more for her in one month
than all the medicine she had taken for the last fourteen
years. She said that she would always keep them in her
house, and recommend them to her friends, for they had
made a perfect cure of her. Mr. —, her husband,
immediately commenced taking them. He had very
recently bad an apoplectic fit, and found relief. He has
no fear of the return of his disease, and has no doubt the
pills have prevented the return.
The next case is a gentlemen's daughter, in Bedford-
square, whom I have known from her infancy ; she was
always a very delicate young woman, therefore I embraced
the opportunity of calling on her father to inquire how his
children were. He told me he expected to lose one in a
decline, for she was given over by all the doctors, and he
had this moment paid a M. D., in the parlour, between
eighty and ninety pounds, and she was worse than when
he undertook to cure her. He had just pronounced her
incurable, begging, at the some time, that she might be
permitted to die as easily air she could, as they could do no
more for her. I was desired to take a seat in the parlour,
and my friend would see me immediately. He had no idea
that I came to recommend Mr. Morison's Vegetable Uni-
versal Medicine, but I immediately inquired the particu-
lars respecting the young lady. Her father said it was
all over with her now, for, the last, M.D. had pronounced
her incurable. I, nevertheless, urged the necessity of at
least a trial of Mr. Morison's Hygean Pills. Her father
said that it was of no use, but referred to the mother. It
was in vain, however, to say anything to her, for she
would not hear so much as the mention of them ; there-
fore, after a long conversation, I bid them farewell.
When I returned home, I reflected on the importance of
saving a life that might prove valuable, and the awful
consequences of neglecting to exercise the power that God
in his providence has thrown in the way to save it, and at
the same time made up my mind to pay another visit. Ac-
cordingly, the next day, after breakfast, I walked to Bed-
ford-square, and found them just sitting down to breakfast,
and of course, being an old friend, I was asked into the
room, and as my business was urgent, I introduced the
business of the number of cures the Hygean Pills had
perfortned,and in very similar cases. The lady said they
had been recommended from another quarter, but she was
once they would be of no service to her, and to prove
what she said, she requested me to put my ear to her
breast, and I might easily feel her heart beat like a ham-
mer. I was very much surprised, but was thoroughly
convinced in my own mind that she would be recovered by
Mr. Munson'si Hygeara Medicine.
They were all against it, but I urged the necessity of
trying them. They wished her to die as easy as she could ;
as she was persuaded by her medical adviser. I then re-
quested she would indulge me by reading the " Morisoniana"
at her leisure hours, and she said she certainly would do
herself the pleasure of gratifying me the next day. I
left the book, and promised to call in one week. I called
according to promise, and found her parents very low in
spirits respecting their daughter. I told them to cheer up,
and that I would venture to say that their daughter would
recover, if she would abide by the directions given by
Mr. Morison, and requested at the same time that she
would call on Mr. Morison at his house. She promised
to do so. 1 attended at the time appointed, and found
that the principles of the Great Hygean had shaken her
resolutions ; likewise her parents. The father said he was
determined to make up his mind to permit her to use her
own judgment ; therefore, he would leave it to her ; and
said, toy friend, you shall have it from her own mouth.
She was called into the parlour, and after taking a seat,
she appeared more like a corpse than a living person. Her
father said to her Mr. Coverly wishes you to say whether
you have made up your mind to try Mr. Morison's
Vegetable Universal Medicine. I will thank vou to say
what you thought of the Morisoniana.
Sir,—l do declare I cannot express my feelings. (Her
eye appeared to brighten and voice was very distinct and
clear.) I, with pleasure, at this moment declare to you I
am satisfied with Mr. Morison's theory, and will go
through a course without fear. I have made up my mind,
I will begin immediately. I assure you I felt my-
self very much gratified, and said, I am quite persuaded
they will cure you. She purchased a I is. packet, and of
course found herself very poorly at first, but when
she had got over the first sensations the difficulty was
over, and she continued, with cheerfulness, until she had
increased to the amount of twenty every dose. The next
visit I made, I was surprised to find her miud lively, and
her hopes increased, and when I called next week, I found
her quite another person in appe trance, and by I,ier deter-
mination to pay strict attention to Mr. Morison s regula-
tions, to eat no salted meat or salted fish, and in par-
ticular to refrain from taking any
spirits, she is now
quite another person, and in Ida than three months
had, with her husband, given the sum of 500/. for a
business in the country, and is repeatedly behind the
counter attending the business.
The next case I shall report is Mrs.
a Lily near
the Tower, who has laboured under a very severe afflic-
tion of the passing of gall stones. I was desired to call
----
on her at and after a little conversatton, she showed
me a box of stones, some of them were as big as the top of
my little finger. I viewed this box of curiosities, and

MARVELS AT SEA.

Last week we recorded an extraordinary feat of swim-
ming and diving, performed by a boy in the river Dee,
below Kirkcudbright ; and have now to note a marvel of
a different description, on the authority of a townsman of
respectability and talent, whose profession renders him
familiar with the great deep, from Dover cliffs to the
mouth of the Ganges, under every aspect it can possibly
assume. Some years ago Castle Huntley was careering
along with every sail set, and profiting by the influence
of a stiff breeze, when a sailor who was at wink among
the lower shrouds missed his footing, fell overboard, and
" went down like a shot." In an instant his brethren
stood on the alert, and, as one means_ of safety, scattered
hen coops and spars on the waves until the vessel could
be brought round, or hove to. As this operation required
some little time, the unfortunate man got to windward,
and at last, by great exertion seized hold of the rudder
and in this way kept his head above water. His mess-
mates, in the meantime, were busy searching for him at the
side of the ship from which he fell; ❑o one thought of
looking to windward ; and as it was impossible to hear his
cries amidst the roar of the waters and the whistling of
the breeze, they gave him up for lost, and proceeded on
their course. Finding himself thus abandoned, the half
exhausted tar clambered up the rudder so far, opened and
crept in by the port-bole, and ensconced himself in the
gun-room. Often and loudly he knocked at the door,
and, in fact, made all the noise he could ; but as the gun-
room, like the cock-pit of a man-of-war, is placed
under water, no attention was paid to his signals of
distress. Here, therefore, he remained a day and a
half, solacing himself with such cheer as he could
lay his hands on—biscuit, water, and perhaps a
drop of rum. About this time the winds, pre-
viously so noisy, fell fast asleep—a dead calm ensued
—and the Castle Huntly, in place of breasting the bil-
lows like the albatross itself, " lay like a log," or at best
dragged her slow length along." This was an oppor-
tunity too favourable to be missed ; and accordingly the
tar crept cautiously out of his prison-house, descended
the rudder, entered the water, and went swimming along-
side, puffing and blowing, and exclaiming as well as his
affected breathlessness would let him—" Ship ahoy, ship
ahoy !" The same officer happened to be on watch who
was so stationed when the man fell overboard, and, al-
though he could hardly credit the evidence of his senses.
he at once shouted " mercy on us ! that's surely Jack
Thomson himself." " Aye., to be sure ; and a pretty set
of lubbers you are, to leave a poor fellow in the lurch ;
I'm three parts murdered already, starving of hunger
and tired to death; and had it not been for this calm, I
never could have made up to you." The whole crew were
thrown into commotion, and looked at one another, the
very pictures of incredulity, not knowing well what to mike
of an escape, alike miraculous and plausible, and which,
at ail events, they could account for on no other principle
than the one propounded by the man himself. As a mat-
ter of counts, Jack was alertly pulled on board, and though
many questions wire put, he humoured the joke, and kept
his secred so well, that no one suspected him. In due
course the ship arrived at Madras, and the Captain dur-
ing his stay happened to dine vi ith some friends, one of
whom boasted greatly of the swimming powers of a mem-
ber of his crew, a man of colour. This circumstance
brought to Captain Sinclair's recollection the story of
Jack Thompson, who bad lived a day and a half in the
water; anti a conversation ensued, which ended in a prof-
fered bet that Jack would beat the black man hollow.
The challenge was accepted, and a day fixed ; and when
Thompson was made aware of what had occurred, he
appeared not a little troubled, confessed he was no great
swimmer, and for the first time told the Captain the real
truth. " However (he added) a notion strikes me, and
I will manage the matter as well as 1 can." The day
of trial came round, and with it a great crowd. Both
parties having stripped, Thompson fastened a hag around
his shoulders, which, as every one remarked, was filled
with something. Blickie looked queer, and immedi-
ately inquired, " what you do wi dat ?" "Do with it,"
said the other, " you know we are bound on a lorg
cruise, and although I can swim, I cannot starve for a
whole week, and must therefore carry provisions along
with me. And I advise you to do the same; for the sake
of being light, I have rather pinched myself, and cannot
promise you a single biscuit." " Swim a week," said
Massa, " and mess in de waves ; then me nod swim wid
you ; youd be devil, nod man—you sink me ;" and in
short, remained so deaf to entreaty, and withal appeared
so frightened, that Captain Sinclair gained his wager, and
rewarded Jack liberally for his ingenuity.—Dumfries

interfere ; if, on the contrary, that amount was excessive,
some legislative measure must be resorted to. But would
there be any great mischief in allowing the matter to stand
as it was at pretest? Having brought in the Bill, would
any harm result from postponing any further proceeding
with respect to it until the next session of Parliament?
Those who were apprehensive that in the five or six inter-
vening months the suits in question might be brought to a
close, knew very little of the nature of our laws, or of the
cumbrous proceedings which must be necessary. Nothing
could be done before Michaelmas term (the 24 of No
vember), and between that and the probable opening of
the next session, very slender progress could he made in
any suit. So that, although he by no means regretted
that the subject had attracted the attention of Parliament,
he thought it might perhaps be as well to wait, in order
to see whether any legislative interference was advisable
and, if advisable, what course it would be most expedient
to pursue.

IMPERIAL PARLIAMENT.

HOUSE OF LORDS, Auousr 26.

On the gallery being opened at half-past five o'clock,
and Lord WYNFoso having taken his seat on the
Woolsack,

The Factories Regulation Bill as amended by their
Lordships' Select Committee, was read a third time.
The Tea Duties Bill was read a third time.
BANK CHARTER BILL.

On the Earl of RIPON moving the third reading of
the Bank Charter Bill,

Lord WYNFORD moved the insertion of a clause,
which was negatived.

The Duke of WELLINGTON opposed the Bill on the
same grounds as he did on a former evening, and objected
to the whole arrangement of the legal tender. The Noble
Duke was very inaudible in the gallery.
The Earl of RIPON did not see that there was any
danger of establishing an agio, which the Noble Duke
seemed so much to apprehend. The Bank of England
did not ask for it as a boon, for it had been ri.oposed to
make the bank-note a legal tender, upon the ground that
it would be advantageous to the country banks, and would
also afford, if the occasion should ever happen, a great
relief to the Bank of England. Had the Government
not been convinced that the legal tender clause would be
a security tp the country and to the Bank, without having
the tendency imagined by the Noble Duke, they would
not have proposed it.

After afeW words from the Duke of WIELLINQTON, the
amendment was negatived, and the Bill read a third time,
and passed.

The Earl of WARWICK spoke in a very low tone of
voice, through which some of his first sentences were lost.
He said he understood there had been an accusation made
against him which bad necessarily been taken up by his
Majesty's Government, and he understood that the Noble
Viscount, the Secretary for the Home Department, had
written to him in order to give him an opportunity to answer
those accusations. As soon as he heard of them,
he set out to come home, and when he arrived in this
country he was sorry to find that he was too late to have
the question fully inquired into, and that the accusation
must, through the rising of Parliament, hang over for
another twelvemonth. He dtnied those charges most
completely; they were without the slightest foundation.
—(Hear, hear, hear.) So far as regarded the
borough of Warwick, imputations had been thrown on
him in every paper in the kingdom,and had even penetrated
to where he bad been. But be most distinctly stated that
there was no Peer of the realm more guiltless of inter-
ference at elections than he was. As for the sum of
money that bad been talked of, it was most true that the
usual expenses attendant on elections had been incurred,
—expenses that were legal and justified by the law, and
he hid stated to his relative, who was the candidate, that
so far as was proper, he would be most happy
to assist him. As for any illegal conduct at the election
he most solemnly asmrad their Lordships that he knew
nothing of any illegal conduct for upwards of a month
after the election. He had thought it right in justice to
himself to say so much ; he had come there expressly to
answer the charge, and he was only sorry that the evi-
dence was not before their Lordships, or he would have
gone fully into it.

The Bishop of LONDON observed, that the number of
clergymen who bad inctituted suits was not as great as the
number of suits instituted ; for a large proportion of the
suits had been brought by lay-impropriators. He did not
believe that the number of suits brought by clergymen
was a tenth of what had been represented.
Lord Wynford's amendment was then put, and ;;Fre,.l
to. The Bill is consequently lost.
TITHES' ARREARS (IRELAND) BILL.

Viscount MELBOURNE moved the order of the day
fur their Lordships to go into a Committee on the Tithes'
Arrears (Ireland) Bill. The Noble Duke opposite had
said that shire was an organized conspiracy in Ireland
against the payment of tithes. Whether that was so or
not, the effect on the Irish clergy at the present moment
was the same. The evil was increased by the peculiar
nature of the property which had keen attacked. It was
generally admitted that the measure of last session had
failed. That failure was attributed by some Noble Lords
to the course which had been taken with respect to it by
his Majesty's Government. However that might be, it
did not alter the distressed situation in which the Irish
clergy at present were, or the duty of Parliament with
respect to them. The Noble Viscount here briefly detailed
the of jects and provisions of the Bill. It had been so.
quiesced in by the representatives in the other House of
Parliament of the landlords of Ireland, who thought that
it would be to their advantage to take upon themselves the
burden which the Bill imposed; and trusted, ther4ore,
that the measure would meet with their Lordships' con,
currence.

The Duke of WELLINGTON followed, and in a low
tone of voice expressed his approbation of the measure
generally. It was one of charity and benevolence, and so
far as it :proposed to relieve a very meritorious and dis-
tressed class of men, he would give it his support, hut hc.
thought many of the details were objectionable. He way
opposed, for instance, to the condition on which the re—
lief was granted. The Bill imposed upon the tithe owner
the condition of renouncing his property for 1829 and
1830, in order to obtain an advance of 75 per cent, on the
same description of property for 1831, and 1832. Such
a condition he thought their Lordships had no right to
impose. With respect also to the clause which remitted
25 per cent. of the tithe to be collected for the years
1831 and 1832, this clause extended not only to the
landlords, but to the occupiers of lands, and thus it would
operate as a bonus for default in payment of tithes. Ile
should not, however, at the present stage, move any
amendment.

Lord PLUNKETT said, it was proposed to insert a
clause in the Bill, to prevent the 25 per cent. clause from
operating as a bounty on default, as the Not,le Duke anti-
cipated, when such default took place, the allowance of ?5
per cent. would not be made.

The Earl of WICKLOW said, as far as Le understood
the Bill, there was no security in it for repayment of the
' advance proposed to be made. His approbation was
founded on this—that the sum to be given was to be con-
sidered as a grant, and that whatever shadow of security
the Bill might profess to give, in reality it gave none. In
considering it as a grant, however, he would not treat it
either as a boon or a favour, but es a mere act of justice
to the clerical and lay itnpropriators or tithes. The fleets,.
sity which compelled the Government to adopt this mea.
sure was a just retribution, for he considered the course of
' policy pursued by the present Government as the sole
cause of that necessity. Every body anew that from the
passing of the Coercion Bill, there was a disposition on the'

statethe disposition of the people, of which disposition he
could give the most incoatestible proofs. Butt at an lin-
' fortunate moment, a Noble Lord highly connected with
the Government chose to put an extinguisher on the col-
lection of tithes in that country. He knew why that
I Noble Lord did so; it was because in the ceurse of the
debate on the Coercion Bill lie pledged himself it should
not be applied to the collection of tithes in Ireland ; and
• when, in consequence of the altered disposition of the
people, after the passing of that Bill, tithes in Ireland
became more easy of collection, the Noble Lord seemed to
fear that by some misconstruction, he might be thought
' to have violated his pledge, and therefore he put a total
stop to the colts ration of tithe arrears. The Noble Earl
' then referred to a letter, written by Major Miller to a
person who, having reason to apprehend viulenc resistance,
had requested the assistance of the military and police in
distraining for arrears of tithe, in which that gentleman
stated he was prohibited by the Government from giving
the aid either of the military or the police force. He
(the Etrl of Wicklow) wished to know what right the
Government had to refuse the aid of the police? They
were perhaps entitled to control the miliiary ; but tee
police were paid by their country, and their services ought:
to be available when required. He had already stated
' that he should support the Bill as a grant, and as a grant.
alone, and believing it to be simply an act of retributive
justice, and no favour to those whom it was intended to
relieve. But, in thus consenting to pass this 131.1 into a
law, he must observe that it left entirely open the que,tieu
as to what footing tithes should stand upon in future. Nor
was there anything at all in this Bill to render it probable
that a similar measure would nut be required next
Session. He hid no doubt that similar dis-
tress would prevail—that similar resistance wouhl take
place, and that a similar necessity would occur.
Indeed the whole proceeding was of a nature to en-
courage resistance, and to render it almost miraculous if
the same system should not again be followed up. It might
be said, that the time for compounding for tithes had been
prolonged, hut it should be remembered how few con.
tracts had been entered into in consequence of that mea.
sure, and that under existing circumstances there was stilt
less probability that such contracts would ha made. At
this late period of the session, feeling as he did the necesa
sity of some grant to the clergy, he should he exceedingly-
sorry to give any opposition to the Bill ; he objected,
however, to some of the details, and would liming forward
his objections in Commit'ee.
The Archbishop of DUBLIN said, from all he could
collect from the clergy and friends of the Church in Ire-
land, he had reason to believe that some measure of this
kind would now prove much more satisfactory to them
than when he first proposed it; that was, if injudicious,
means were not used, and intemperate expressions were
not resorted to, for the purpose of keeping up the alarm
which prevailed in Ireland on this subject. He had cone
suited with many of the clergy when he first proposed
this measure, but they generally treated it as one pregnant
with difficulties, and seemed inclined to think that things
would come right of themselves, He contended, however,
that some measure of the kind was then necessary, and
that the difficulties of the question would increase by delay.
He was the last person in the world to cast reproach ors
the clergy, or indeed on any person belonging to any poli-
tical party. But if he were inclined to enter into the
controversy, be might say, that when he first sugges:eet
this measure, it was not supported. He would nor,
however, enter into any unpleasant retrospects, but be
wished to imp est on their Lordships and on the public
the necessity of making the best of existing circumstances,
and of taking the best precautions for the future, and
more especially of not exposing the church to unnecessary
danger by holding out such language as had formerly been
held out, and which had created great excitement and
alarm. He trussed also he might be permitted to remark
on the impropriety of indulging in prophecies', which, as
had already been the case, but too frequently led to their
own fulfilment.—(Hear, hear.) Those who had professed
themselves to he the friends of the church had strengthened
the agitators by the intemperate expressions in which they
had indulged. They had repeatedly asserted that it ,vas
the intention of his Majesty's Government to put down
the Protestant Establishment in Ireland. He could assure
their Lordships that the various prophecies which had
been indulged in had tended in the greatest possible degas
to bring about their fulfilment. He could mention to
their Lordships one case, which was but a type of litany
others. The parishioners of a clergyman whose :.'h

Earl GREY had hoped, after the temperate speech of
the Noble Duke oppo-ite, that there would have been no
necessity for him to address their Lordships on this Bill.
It was, however, impossible to pass over in silence what
had fallen from the Noble Earl. He agreed with the
Most Rev. Prelate that much mischief had arisen from
the declarations of those who, doubtless, in the sincerity
of their belief, though in that belief they did great injus.
tice to his Majesty's Government, had represented his
Majesty's Government as hostile to the Protestant Esta-
blishment. It had more than once fallen to his lot to
disclaim any such hostility, and to state, that it was his
most earnest wish and sincere endeavour to do every thing
in his power to support its interests. If their Lordships
looked candidly at the situation of his Majesty's Govern-
ment, they must admit that it was one of considerable
difficulty. The Noble Earl had said that the difficulties
of the Government were of their own making, hut he
would ask the Noble Earl to point out any course that
might have been pursued which would have been free from
difficulty. The Most Rev. Prelate had said truly that
those misrepresentations of the intentions of Government
had tended materially to increase those difficulties. A new
example of the danger to which the Most Rev. Prelate
had alluded, was exhibited in the speech of the Noble
Earl, who alleged, as his great inducement to support
this Bill, that he considered it as a grant. It must
have been known to the Noble Earl that it was not
on this principle that the Bill was introduced into their
Lordships' house. It must have been known to the
Noble Earl, that if it had been so introduced into another
place, he believed that such an interpretation was put
upon it by those with whom the Noble Earl would not be
well pleased to be considered as united in opinions—but to
return, the Noble Earl knew that if it had been so intro-
duced in another place, it would never have reached their
Lordships' house. He would tell the Noble Earl what the
principle of the bill was. It was founded on the prin-
ciple of relief to the clergy. As the Noble Duke had
truly stated, it was founded on a charitable and benevolent
intention, lint in the full confidence that the people of
England would not be called on to submit to a burthen
which, under the circumstances, ought not to fall upon
them.—( Hear.) The Noble Earl said it was a just retri-
bution that a grant should be made to the Irish Clergy,
and that Englishmen should be called on to pay a sum
which they never expected to be returned to them. But
if the Noble Earl looked to the provisions of the bill, he
would see that the return was provided for, though if the
Noble Earl thought proper to indulge in such language it
was not impossible tha t it might produce the effect which
had been adverted to by the Right Rev. Prelate. What a
. ustification would it not be for such conduct that it had
been stated in Parliament, particularly in that House, that
no such return was ever expected. He, therefore, felt it in-
cumbent upon him to contradict the assertion of the effect
of this measure, and to state most distinctly that be
thought full security was provided by this Bill for the
repayment of the temporary relief which it afforded to the
clergy, and for securing the people of England from the
imposition of a burthen which ought not in justice to fall
ou them. The Noble Earl had also stated that after
the passing of the Coercion Bill, there would have been
no difficulty in collecting tithes, had not the Government
put a stop to it. That certainly was not the case, fur
the Government, with all the power of military and
police, which it had at command, was able to collect but
a very small proportion indeed of the arrears of tithe
which were due to them. Certainly it was contempla-
ted to afford relief to the clergy, by enabling them to

collect their tithes, if upon experience it had been found
that there were less objections to that proceeding than
was actually the case. It was easy to say that the tithes
ought to have been levied, but he had shown that in
practice that was not the case. Scenes of outrage and
violence had followed the attempt to collect tithes. That
was particularly the case in Cork, and in other places,
where the Magistrates had refused to act, and altogether a
lamentable state of things was produced which nobody
could say it was not the duty of the Government to put
an end to. That was done from no desire to relax
the authority of the law ; and he could assure their
Lordships that the Government did not yield to the
Noble Earl opposite, or any Noble Lords, in their desire and
determination to support the authority of the law. The
Government, however, felt called upon to see if other
means of relief might not be afforded. Meeting the diffi-
culties of the present case, and endeavouring to avoid such
obstacles for the future, it was not for him to say that the
Government had been successful in this endeavour, but he
wished again to say that this was not a grant, which was
not to be repaid, but a loan, otherwise it would throw a
burden on the people of England which they had no right
to bear. He admitted that there were many difficulties
i❑ the matter; and if any amendments could be proposed
calculated to make the measure more efficacious—as his
Noble Friend had signified his intention to propose one—
the Noble Lord would find that the Government was
ready to take them into its most favourable consideration.
With reference to the measure of last year, which the
Noble Earl had alluded to, it was not yet sufficiently
understood, nor were its advantages sufficiently ap-
preciated. It certainly was intended that that measure
should be accompanied by a measure for a commutation of
-tithes. That was recommended by the Committee ; and
:ha Lordships might rest assured that this object was
not lout sight of. He hoped it might be accomplished
in another session ; and then, to use a word which
had been much misunderstood, but which the Noble
Earl knew was not the word uf the Government—
be did hope that at length tithes might be ex-
tinguished ; not with any diminution of the rights of
the clergy, but by a commutation which would enable
them to exercise those rights in a less obnoxious manner
than at present, and avoid all the evils of the present sys-
tem. Those evils were not of modern origin. Seventy
years ago the Parliament of Ireland had passed a law to
relieve the clergy, in consequence of the nonpayment of
tithes. Then there were scenes of violence and bloodshed,
such as had lately been complained of; and certainly he
had to regret that no measures had been taken since that
period to put this matter on a footing more congenial to
the feelings of the people. He would not enter into any
present circumstances ; he would only say that, after what
had occurred of late years, it was not to be wondered at
that the difficulties of the subject were now very great.
lie trusted, however, that they would now surmount some
of those difficulties by agreeing to the present measure,
laying a foundation ett a better state of things, and avoid-
ing the necessity for ever again having recourse to a simi-
lar measure. He acknowledged that there were objections
to the measure, some of which might be obviated in Com-
mittee ; and he trusted that their Lordships would the❑
suffer the Bill to go into a Committee, when Noble Lords
would have an opportunity of offering any amendment
which would conduce to remove those objections.
Their Lordships then resolved themselves into a Com-
mittee on the Bill.
On the motion of Lord MELBOURNE, a clause was
inserted, to prt vent those who had been defaulters from
having the benefit of the 25!. per centage.
The remaining clauses were then agreed to.
The House then resumed. Report to be received to-
morrow.
