and the elections should be left exclusively in the hands n
the inhabitant., be did not see how the church of Scotland
ot the cause of true religion would derive the slightest art-
vantage from such an alteration.
➢lr. C. FERGUSSON rose to eipiain. What he
meant to say was, That 'no clergyman should be forced ou
the parishioners'contrary to their inclination.
Mr. COCQUHOUN said that the hon. baronet had
drawn a comparison between the church of England
'and Scotland, and the right of advowson in the one with
the right of patronage in the other. The fact Was,
the right of advowson of the church of England stood
on unassailable grounds, whereas the right of patronage
was altogether inconsistent with the constitution of the
church nf Scotland.

Mr. GILLON would support the motion, as it would
tend to detach the church of Scotland from all connection
with the crown, and give to the mass of the Scotch people
the right of electing their own clergy.
Mr. SINCLAIR brit fly replied.
The motion was agreed to without a division.
BOROUGH OF ATHLONE

Mr. J. TALBOT withdrew hk motion for leave to
bring in a bill to alter the registration of voters in the
borough of Athlone.

Mr. MURRAY obtained leave to bring in a bill to vest
in the crown the appointment of Procurators Fiscal in the
Sheriff's Court of Scotland. The hon. gentleman objected
to the patronage of those offices being reposed in the
judges, as at present.
Mr. GORDON intimated his intention of opposing the
measure,

The bill was then read a first time, and ordered for a
second reading on the 14th of Mai ch.
NEWSPAPER STAMPS—IRELAND.

-• _
Lord ALTHORP, in moving for leave to bring in a
bill to repeal so much of the 55th Geo. 111., c. 80, as
prohibits the commissioners of stamps from issuing to
printers convicted of seditious libels, apologised to the
lion. and learned member for Drogheda, who had pre-
viously intimated his intention of bringing such a measure
bef .re the house for forestalling him in that intention.
Mr. O'CONNELL was sure there was no necessity for
any apology in this case. For his own part be only wi.hed
the noble lord would forestal him in all the measures which
his thoughts called for in Irish affairs. As it appeared to
him, however, there being no penalty attached to the ne-
glect of there obnoxious clauses, he hardly saw the neces-
sity for an Act upon the subject, as a mere intimation
from government would be sufficient to avert all disas-
trous consequences. It had been stated to the House that
this arbitrary enactment bad had its origin in the Irish
Parliament. Now the fact was that it was passed in 1798,
when a civil war was raging in Ireland, and revived in 1800
by the Irish Parliaments, in the same year that that body
voted its own destruction. In that act, however, the
withholding of stamps was left to the discretion of the
government; the compulsory clauses were introduced in
the act of 1815, which was also made a perpetual one.
Mr. O'DWYER thanked the noble lord for taking the
measure into his hands.
IRISH TITHES BILL.

Mr. LITTLETON brought in a bill for the abolition
of tithes in Ireland, and the substitution of a land tax in
their stead, which was read a first time. The Right
Hon. Secretary intimated to the Irish members of that
house that, as it was not his wish to press that measure
hastily through the house, he would move its second read-
ing for the 11th of April.
Mr. O'CONNELL thought such a delay was quite
necessary, as many of the members of that house were ab-
sent on their professional duties, and would not be able to
return until the assizes were over.

Mr. SHEIL thought the 11th of April was hardly late
enough.
After some conversation between Mr. SHEIL and Mr.
O'Coloixth, it was agreed that the day fixed by the
Right Hon. Secretary would suit, and
Mr. O'CONNELL declared that every Irish member of
that house would be in his place on that occasion.
The other orders of the day were then disposed of, and
the house adjourned at a quarter-past twelve.
