IRELAND.
THE PRELATES AND THE PENAL Li/73.

DUBLIN, SATURBAI,—The Freeman of this morning
cont3ins the address to the Queen sy.optei by the Irish
Roman Catholic hierarchy at the late meeting, in I'ublin,
together with Sir George Grey's answer, communicated
through Archbishop Murray. The reply of the Ilan"
Secretary is, of course, bric-f and formai ; btit the addi-
tion of the word " graciously," though of trifling Im-
port, seems to be regarded as signiticsut of "some-
thing."
'v A cy of the documents is aanexed, and it will
be observed that even " John Archbishop of Tusm" has
come off his stilts, eschewed the territorial title, and is
fain to content to write himself down plain "John

"TO HER MOST GRACIOUS MAJESTY THE QUEEN.
" May it please your Majesty,—We, your Majesty's
loyal and dutiful subjects, the undersigned Archbishops
and Bishops of the Romaa Catholic Church in Ireland,
presume to approach your Majesty with the humble as-
surance of our profound homage, and of our fervent and
unalterable attachment to your Majesty's person and
throne. _ _

" Loyalty to the Sovereign whom Providence has
placcd over us is a duty which the clearest dictates of
our religion prescribe. It is a duty which the Roman
Catholic clergy of Ireland have not failed to inculcate
at all times and under the most adverse circumstances,
with all the energy of Christian zeal. It is a duty, may
it please your Majesty, the sanctity of which was pro-
claimed aloud through the enthusiastic outpourings of
the Irish heart when our present most gracious Sove-
reign vouchsafed to visit our shores.
" With ineffable pain we have learnt that an internal
change lately made in England by the Sovereign Pontiff
in the spiritual organization of tha Church to wbioh
we belong—a change which we believe to be in perfect
accordance with every duty which the purest feelings
of loyalty would demand—has been represented as an
infringement of your Majesty's Royal supremacy. We
beg most humbly to assure your Majesty that we
utterly condemn any attempt to assail the authority of
your Majesty as our supreme temporal authority.
The Roman Catholics of these realms owe, and
with the deepest sincerity of their hearts cheerfully
profess, supreme and undivided allegiance to your Ma-
jesty in all temporal matters; and yet, because we can-
not violate our conscience by giving to your Majesty in
spiritual matters that which belongs, as we believe, solely
to God, the project of a law has been laid before Parlia-
ment, the declared object of which is to suppress our
hierarchy, and which, with that view, is framed so as to
render in the highest degree penal the observance of our
ecclesiastical discipline, as well as to confiscate our
charitable funds. Such a law we beg most respectfully
to assure your Majesty would grievously oppress your
Majesty's most faithful and loyal subjects, the Roman
Catholics of the United Kingdom, and would be utterly
subversive of those principles of religious liberty which
your Majesty vouchsafed to proclaim from the Throne,
principles which descended to your Majesty as a precious
inheritance from your illustrious father, which grew up
with your Majesty, and were strengthened in your Royal
bosom by the deliberate judgment of an enlightened
mind, and the kindly sensibilities of a heart which pants
for the happiness of all your subjects.
"To that gracious and benevolent heart the under-
signed appeal with confidence against the grievous and
undeserved calamity threatened by the projected penal
law, and they implore your Majesty, the guardian under
Heaven of the happiness of every portion of this great
empire, to secure to them and to all your Majesty's
faithful Roman Catholic subjects, what is denied to no
other class of their fellow-Christians, the peaceful exer-
cise of their religious worship according to the known
discipline of their Church.
" And may your Majesty's reign be long and glorious
over every section of an united, happy, and grateful
people.

Tile following is the letter addressed by Archbishop

going address:—
"TO THE RIGHT HON. SIR GEORGE GREY, G.C.8., &C.
" Sir,—ln conformity with the wishes of a general
meeting of the archbishops and bishops of the Roman
Catholic Church in Ireland, I have the honour to for-
ward to you the accompanying humble address, in the
hope that you will have the great goodness to lay it
before her Most Gracious Majesty the Queea.
I have the honour to remain, with profound respect,
Sir, your most obedient servant,

REPLY OF SIR G. GREY.

" Whitehall, March 6.

"My Lord,—l have had the honour to lay before the
Queen the address of the archbishops and bishops of the
Roman Catholic Church in Ireland, which accompanied
your Grace's letter of the Ist inst., and I am to inform
you that the address was graciously received by her Ma-
jesty.

MR. JOHN O'COIiNELL AND THE ELECTORS OF
RlCK.—Every man's hand now appears to be raised
against Mr. John O'Connell, who, not more than six
years ago, had been hailed by the repealers as " the
young and rising hope of Ireland." A special meeting
of the corporation of Limerick was held on Thursday,
to take into consideration the conduct of Mr. O'Connell,
in having absented himself from his seat in Parliament
upon the introduction of the Papal Aggression Bill.
After a vehement and protracted discussion, a resolu-
tion condemnatory of the conduct of Mr. O'Connell was
passed by a majority of 18 to 11; and a second resolu-
tion was then adopted, calling on the Ron. Gentleman
to resign his seat for the city of Limerick. Amongst
the majority were several who had ;been the warmtst
adherents of Mr. O'Connell, and subscribers to the fund
recently collected to defray his expenses whilst attending
in Parliament.
A letter appears this morning, addressed to Mr. John
O'Connell by Mr. J. Kenny, the Mayer of Clonmel, de-
claring that it would be hypocrisy to bide the fact that
his "recent indecision on Disraeli's motion has, and
will ever, stamp him as an unfit Man to lead in any po-
pular measure. Your excuse (the mayor adds) for non-
attendance upon the division, which would and ought
for ever shut out from power that traitor to public
honour, Lord John Russell, proves you, your brother,
and cousin, unworthy of the confidence of the Irish
people."
Mr. John O'Brien, the colleague of Mr. O'Connell
in the representation of Limerica, who had also been
abs.nt from the division ou Mr. Disraoii's motion, ow-

in to the dangerous illness of a member of his family,
has so far escaped a vote of censure. Mr. O'Brien, in a

letter to his constituents, declares it to be " the para-
mount obligation of a Catholic member to extend. the
duty of resistance to a general opposition to any Min's-
try, no matter how constituted, identified with the prin-
ciple of religious intolerance."

CARRIAGE IMPROVEMBETS.—In these times of im-
provement, when every artificer and mechanist is taxing his
ingenuity to produce something new, to hold a place in the
forthcoming Exhibition, carriage builders do not in the least
appear to be behind hand. There is now exhibiting in the
factory of Messrs. W. and C. Middleton, Long- acre, a light
and elegant carriage, fitted with a centripetal wheel-plate.
By means of this new and important invention, the front
wheels are made to lock under the body in turning a corner
in a much shorter space than usual. Two advantages are
thus offered; one is, that the hind and front wheels are
brought ten inches closer together than usual, thereby con-
siderably lessening the draught, by means of a groove in the
wheel-plate which allows the perch-bolt to slide that much
forward, carrying the wheels along with it independently of
the body, instead of remaining stationary while on the lock.

swallowed. The lighter was

IMPERIAL PARLIAMENT.

(THIS EVENING.)

HOUSE OF LORDS.

The LORD CHANCELLOR,_took his seat upon the Wool-
sack at Five o'clock.
PETITIONS.

The Earl of FEVERSHAM presented several peti-
tions from parishes in the North Riding of Yorkshire,
praying for a restoration of agricultural protection.
PASSENGERS ACT AMENDMENT BILL.

Earl GREY moved the second reading of this Bill,
which was intended to remedy certain defects which had
been discovered in the working of the present laws,
and which would operate to the prevention of the employ-
ment of a superior class of vessels as passenger ships.
At present passenger ships going to America were
obliged to carry provisions for ten weeks, and the Com-
missioners had Lo power of modifying this requirement;
now steamers of 3 greeter power and of a superior class
had been laid down which would make the voyage in a
much less time than other vessels, and it was proposed
that the companies should have power to modify the re-
gulations as regarded such steam-ships. It also pro-
posed under certain circumstances to permit with the
consent of the passengers, the substitution of one sort of
provisions for another, and to give the Commissioners a
power of relaxing existing regulations in cases of
ships receiving damage being obliged to put back.

Lord REDESDALE drew the attention of their
Lordships to the fact cf the number of deck passengers
who were crowded upon the decks of the Irish steamers;
there was a crie, the other day in which an infant had
perished from being exposed to the inclemency of the
weather on the deck or one of those steamers. In fact,
the guardians of many of the unions in Ireland had paid
far the passage of many of these unfortunate paupers,
in order to get rid of the burden of their maintenance.
He hoped the attention of the Government would be
directed to his sl,bject.
Lord ViIODEEIOUSE thought the cabin passengers
stood aMiosL as much in tee 3 of protection as steerage
pssgenoers, and hoc•td 01;4 the agents would receive di-
rections to see that proper prov'sioas and an adequate
aunty of water should be provided fur them.
Lord COLCHESTER alluded to the ca,e of several
persues who last year were smothered on their voyage
from Belfst to Glasgow, as a proof of thu necessity of
reguls,ing steam pasienger vessels going only short
♦oyagee
Earl GREY thought that it would be inexpedient to
legislate on the subject of cabin passengers, they had the
power of taking care of themselves by employing re-
spectable brokers. regard to the passenger
ships for Ireland, the Noble Earl was' understood
to intimate that he thought soma regulations would be
desirable.

Tne Earl of HARROWBY made some observations,
but he spoke in a tone so indistinct that it was impos-
sible to catch even their purport.
Earl GREY replied. The greatest care was taken of
the emigrants by the Government agents in New Bruns-
wick and Canada.

Lord MONTEAGLE bore witness to the great care
and:indefatigable attention to their duties exhibited by the
emigration agents in the British North American cob.
vies. He thought the same legislative proteetion ought
to be afforded to cabin passengers.

_ .
The Bill was then read u second time.
PETITIONS.

The Earl of FALMOUTH presented a petition from
the guardians of the Wallingford Union in favour of an
alteration in the law for making parochial assessments.
The Earl of CARLISLE presented a petition from a
person named Mitchell, a suitor in the Court of Chan-
cery. complaining that he had suffered grievously from
the dilatoriness of that Court, and praying for a reform
in its proceedings.
SALE OF ARSENIC.

The Earl of CARLISLE introduced a Bill for regu,
lating the sale of arsenic, which was read a first time.
REGISTRATION OF DEEDS BILL.

The Marquis of LANSDOWNE gave notice, on be-
half of his Noble Friend the Lord Chief Justice, that he
'would on Monday nest move the second reading of
this Bill. _ _
