LORD GREYS COERCIVE BILL.

(From the Dublin Morning Register of Monday.)
We had written thus far before we had received the ex-
press second editions of The Sue and Courier, containing;
Lord Grey's speech of Friday evening, on submitting hie
Bill of pains and penalties for Ireland. How are we ft+
describe this till ? How are we to convey the emotions
it excites in our minds? How are we to depict the can-
,.querices with which it will, as sure as the sun rises, bo
Attended, not in Ireland merely, but in England itself, if
it receive the sanction of the Legislature? To what are
we to attribute, short of madness, stark, st.ring, and
unmitigated, a measure so utterly monstrous? Can it pass
a reformed House of Commons?—lmpossible!
ble! Lord Grey tells us in his speech a great deal we did
not know before. We thought that o-:e or two counties
were unquiet. He says, or rather the person who reports
the speech, that almost the whole kingdom is in a similar
condition. He tells us of murd-rs and outrages of which
we never before heard a syllable, though there are
very industrious publishers of such matters in Ireland.
llre Lord•hip has been persuaded that crime has greatly
increased in the last year in Ireland. Let a list of the
hills found by grand juries at assizes end sessions in that
year, and the two preceding years, be ordered, and the
English public will see to what extent he has been de-
ceived. However, the business now which should engage
us all is to cause petition. from all quarters to he for,
sarded without loss of time to both Houses of Parliament,
The first general meeting is to be held, as we have menu
tioned, on Wednesday next in Dublin.

(From the Dublin Freeman's Journal of Monday.)
By the exertions of The Sun newspaper, an express
edition of which we received yesterday at 12 o'clock,
through the Messrs. Johnston, f Eden quay, we are en-
•tbled to give the entire speech of Earl Grey, in bringing
in his Bill for the Suppression of Disturbances in Ireland.
To give a summary of the proposed measures, would be
only to collect all the enactments against public liberty
which can be found on the pages of the British or Irish
sta.ute books, and then to add every cling conceivably
tyrannical within the range of legislative power. The
pages of Tacitus or Gibbon cannot exhibit a mere refined
detail of organized oppression than is deve:oped in the
speech attributed to the first Minister of the Crown of
E igland. Every friend to the protection of human life,
social security, or civil liberty, must shrink from its p..rusal
with terror and dismay—its very nature mikes the blood run
cold. Never in the annals of Irish history was such a
sensation produced in Dublin as at this moment pervades the
citizens of the metropolis. Men of all creeds and parties
stand aghast, and look at each other with silent but ex-
pressive horror. The monstrous falsehoods on which the
necessity of this terrific measure is pretended to be esta-
blished, we will reserve for exposure to•morrow. No man
in Ireland, in the extreme either of joy or misgiving, for
a moment apprehended that Lord Grey would have asked
a tithe of the power here demanded—a power, according
to his own admission, in every respect inconsistent with
the British Constitution. Talk of the Church and its
oppressions ! Talk of Toryism, its profligate expenditure
and its rigid tyranny. Better submit for another century
to all the abuses of the Church—better bow for ages be-
neath the yoke of Tory dictators and their Cabinets, than
witness a single provision of the proposed Bill receive tlie
sanction of Parliament ! The manifestation of public sen-
timent will be made to-morrow. The ciiizens of Dublin
meet to express their feeling on this momentous and exi-
gent occasion. The requisition for the meeting consprises
the names of several gentlemen hitherto the friends, and,
we might add, the favourites of the Irish Government.
This circumstance alone is a sufficient indication of the
ardour and enthusiasm universally felt at the present mo-
ment in the metropolis.

VICE-CHANCERY COURT.-(THIS DAY.)

Ili: Honour the VICE-CHANCELLOR was occupied the
whole morning with the arguments in the cause of " Read r.
Read," which came before the Court upon exceptions to the
Master's report. The case was entirely devoid of any public
interest; and the arguments were not concluded when our
reporter left.

THE FUNDS.-(THIS DAY.)

CITY, TWELVE O'CLOCK.

We have a great dearth of information this morning, owing
to no arrivals of consequence as yet ; but we learn that the
Pacc packet ship is off Liverpool from New York; she sailed
on the Ist instant. It is not supposed she will bring any im.
portant events from South Carolina, as the Ist of February was
the day when the tariff law was to be defunct in that State ;
therefore, by the next packet, of the Bth instant, we may ex.
pest important news from that quarter.
We have an arrival from Rio Janeiro at Cowes, but it U
stated to be of an old date.
We do not hear of any fresh news from Oporto, which is
now anxiously sought after, as it is expected that some im-
portant crisis is on the point of taking place there.
Consols opened this morning at the same price they left ow
yesterday, 87% for the Account, with little or nothing doing at.
present; the speculators are waiting to ascertain the French
prices before they operate. We have reports from the west
end of the town that the negotiations with Holland have taken
some favourable turn in the Cabinet, the particulars of which
have not as yet transpired.
In the Foreign Market Belgium Stock has improved 1 per
cent. this morning. In other Foreign Securities little doing.
HALF-PA ST ONE.

The stormy weather which prevailed during the night has
prevented arrivals, consequently we have neither report:,
nor political information to the present hour.

Consols, which were in the early part of the day at 87% !..;
for the Account, may now be quoted at 87 j, with little or
nothing doing.

The Foreign Market is also in a stagnant state, and the
prices are much the same as yesterday.
