F PA RIAIIMEN T.

(TIIIS EVENT G.)

HOUSE OF 1,1;:?.DS.
lArd DENMAN took his seat ',Vool.sack at fire o'clotk.
Lori DENMAN said then, thre,2 Bills before tLe
House to uhich he bogged to ea:i !!,•it I.3rdships' attentior.
The first was the P. iloners' which 11:)::

been referred to a S. eee'"ee, before whom much
evidence lre-1 been taken, but ha had not yet bad an
o!Tortunity. of seeing it. OF course their Lordship could
not now fen u: aey judgment uuou it, now e.:-:en the SeAsion
was so far advaecel —( iLete, henr.) Uncle- these circum-
staeres he gave notice that on the next. stage cf the
Bill he would move thet it be deferred for six months.
—( Heetie %beer. ) re:it which he would
refer, was one making offences agah:t the person felony, fee the
purpose of inet-enti •g the punishment; that Bill dependedso much
ripen the preccenng coe that he wFuld follow the sane course as
with it. The next Bill to be wished to refer was
one for .abolishing capital punii,hments in eases of stealing'
• letters, and sacrilege. He had no et;jeetion to that pi ii, and
would propose that it be forwarded it stage to-morrow. He
hid hail an interview with tke LA. Advocate as to the neces-
sity i)f the provisions being extended to Scotland ; but he
thought it unnecessary. He had also seen the Attorney-Ge-
neral for Ireland, who thought it would be a great bent‘fit. if
the Bill included Ireland, and he would propose a clause so
to extend it.
Lord BROUGHAM entirely agreed in all that had fallen
from his Noble and Learned Friend. As to the Bill for allow-
ing counsel to prisoners in cases of felony, though he had
moved the Bill in that House, still, after bearing the evi-
dence given before the Committee by some of the most
eminent counsel—of Mr. Phillips, who had great experience
at the Old. Bailey, and who was well known as a very warm
friend to•the liberty of the subject, and also of his Noble Friend
(Radnor), who was a Recorder—(Laughter)—and a Ma-
gistrate of great standing, he was bound to say that evidence
now pressed upon his. mind. Under these circumstances
lie would not think he would be doing his duty if he pressed
forward the Bill.
The Earl of HA R ROWBY wished.to say a few words upon
that Bill which the Noble Lord on the Woolsack was in-
tending to press firwarcl.--.( Hear, hear.) How was it
possible for their Lordships to make up their minds at all
• upon the subject : they had no ground upon which to go ? They
were now called upon to extend that Bill to Ireland upon the
mere ipso dixit of the Learned Gentleman, the Attorney-
General, as given by the Leartipd Lord upon the Woolsack.
He wished to call the attention of the House to the state to
which they were reduced, and he hoped some resolution would
be come to, in order to secure their having important Bills
sent up to them in proper time in the Session.
After a few words from Lord DENAIAI and the Earl of HAR•
ROWBY,

Lord CLONCLTRR Y said that generally they should le-
gislate for both countries, and the exception should be only
when particular clauses should render it improper to extend
the benefit of the laws of England to Ireland. He was sorry
to say that from late decisions in that House he was
led to doubt whether the' same consideration and good
feeling was extended to both countries. Nothing had shocked
him so much as the decision of the House upon a Bill of great
iniportance, that for improving the constabulary force of Ire-
land.—( Hear.) That body, which was of the greatest import-
ance, had by mismanagement and the ,too great delicacy of the
Government been perverted into a partizan force, and the peace
of the country was thus put in jeopardy. He was afraid that
the Ministry who brought it forward, had influenced their de-
cision more than the calm consideration of the subject.—
( Hear, hear.) That measure had been recommended by
every Government of every political feeling in Ireland for a
number of years, and it would be attended with great danger if
the power of the police be continued, whilst it remained as it at
present was a 'partizan force. He lamented to see that force
perverted into a body of partizans, rather than instruments
of justice.—(Hear, hear.) Let them legislate for Ire-
land as they did for their own country„ and they would
have a grateful and a peaceful people ; but legislation
in the nlknner in which he was sorry to see it on this occasion,
would be giving arguments and power to the enemies of the
union between the two countries, and render sorrowful those
who who supportedit.—(Hear, hear.)
The Earl of LIMERICK—It was a most extraordinary
assertion of the Noble Lord, that the police force in Ireland
did not answer the purpose for which it was framed ; that it
was changed into an engine of faction, and that it did not
preserve the peace of the country. This was the first time he
ever heard such a statement.

Lord CLONCURRY—I did not say so.
The Earl of LIMERICK—The. Noble Lord will have an
opportunity of explaining. It is most irregular to interrupt
me. The Noble Lord stated that the police force does not
answer its purposes.—( Hear.) I deny it. All persons agree
'on the efficacy of that force, and that it has been of
great., t service in pr,qPrving the peace of Ireland.
Lord DUNCANNON—There is no question before the
House.—(Hear, hear.) I move the third reading of the
Sheriffs' (Ireland) Bill.
The Duke of WELLINGTON— I have one observation
to make. The Noble Lord (Clencurry) stated that the deci-
sion on the. Constabulary Force Ireland Bill, has been influ-
enced by party rnutives. Now, to impute motives to any
Noble Lord, or to any number f Noble Lords, is not quite
regular. I certainly did not vote:against the Bill on the ground

which the Noble Lord imputes to me, and those who voted
with me. .
The Sheriffs (Ireland) Bill was then read a third time and
gassed.
