THE SUN, LONDON, THURSDAY, MARCH 5, 1835.

The question was, are Orange Societies legal or il-
legal ? On this point Ministers preserved the dis-
creetest silence. They would give no satisfactory
answer, either one way or the other. This is not the
way to tranquillize Ireland. It is not by flattering
a faction, which from time immemorial has been
the curse of Ireland, that the interests of the
sister-country are to be advanced. Every one
knows who and what are Orangemen. Their
annals are writ in the blood of Ireland. Mr.
GOULBURN had far better acknowledge the loyalty of
their secret societies at once, than attempt to blink or
mystify the qUestion.

In the House of Commons last night—the Lords
did not sit—Mr. BAINES asked Ministers whether
there was likely to be any report from the Ecclesias-
tical Commission, when Mr. GOULBURN replied that
it would be laid on the table as soon as possible. Mr.
Row NsoN asked what sums had been paid into the Ex-
chequer on account of the pension of the King of BEL-
GIUM ? Sir R. PEEL made answer 40001., and owned
that what had been done had disappointed him. In a sub-
sequent part of the evening, Lord STANLEY, as one of
the trustees, said that in the course of the present year
34,000/. would be paid, and that in future years the
payments would amount to 40,000/. per• annum.

We have great pleasure in stating, that on the
motion of Sir JOHN CAMPBELL, last night, in the
House of Commons, leave was given for bringing
in a Bill for the amendment of the present Law
of Debtor and Creditor, the provisions of which
may be said to abolish altogether the law of
Imprisonment for Debt. In an article which we
devoted to this subject yesterday our readers will find
our sentiments of the justice of a measure, which we
believe to be one of the most humane ever submitted to
the wisdom of Parliament. We are happy to find
that the Government has manifested no disposition
to oppose Sir J. CAMPBELL in bringing forward this
Bill, and that the good sense and real intelligence
of the House was with him on this occasion.
But why are not the provisions of this Bill ex-
tended to Ireland ? Why continue the old system m
partial legislation ? Let the Bill be extended to every
part of the United Kingdom, else we shall have half
the Irish debtors flying here to escape the vengeance
of their creditors.

THE SUN EXPRESS.

HUDDERSFIELD, MARCH 3, 1835.

A number of the subscribers to the Huddersfield Com-
mercial News-rooms, beg the Proprietors of The Sun to
accept the inclosed Ten Pounds, as some small considera-
tion for the expense the Proprietors have been at, in fur-
nishing such unprecedented early intelligence, by their
expresses.

The Subscribers cannot allow this opportunity to pass,
without bearing their testimeny to the high estimation in
which The Sun is held in this neighbourhood ; and their
confident expectations that the patriotic and untiring
exertions of the Proprietors will not lose its reward.

(From the Cheltenham Chronicle, March 4.)
TIIE Sex NEWSPAPER.—We are under great obligations to
the conductors of this deservedly popular journal, for the ex-
presses they have forwarded with the earliest intelligence of
the diVisions on the election of the Speaker, and on the Address
to the King. The public spirit with which this paper is con-
ducted is alike worthy of the talent that shines through its
columns, and the high place it enjoys in public favour.
(From the Dumfries Courier, March 4. )
THE Sex NEWSPAPER.—IiI common with others, we have to
express our most grateful thanks to the Proprietors of The Sun
newspaper for its last two expresses. When the first arrived
we knew not to whom we were particularly obliged ; but, as
the packet contained six newspapers, we were at pains to dis-
tribute them to the best advantage, so that all our reading_
rooms, &c., might immediately profit by de bonne prise. The
last express reached us at eleven o'clock, p.m., on Saturday
night ; and we honestly confess our astonishment was great.
Late as the arrival was, it decided, we understand, several
bets; and the opinion is general in this town, that The Sun's
expresses, apart altogether from the merits of its conductors,
deserve expresses in return, ordering the paper wherever a
want exists for such a commodity. The expense of the exer-
tions we allude to must be great, and considering the accuracy
with which they are executed, remind us of some of the evolu-
tions of Napoleon Bonaparte.

EXTRAORDINARY EXERTIONS OF THE PROPRIETOR OF THE
SUN.-The spirited proprietor of The Sun has again laid the
inhabitants of Sheffield under a debt of gratitude, for the exer-
tions he last week made, in forwarding copies of the express
edition to this town on Friday last, containing the lengthened
debate, and the vote on the address. The express arrived here
before seven o'clock in the evening, although the House of
Commons did not break up until twenty minutes past two
o'clock on the same morning. Such unprecedented exertions
cannot fail to meet with their proper reward, coupled as they
are with first-rate talent, not only in the reporting, but also in
the editorial department.

(From the Cork Evening Herald, March 2. )
By means of the great and valuable exertions of Messrs.
Johnston and Co., this disagreeable result was made known
yesterday morning ; a special morning edition of The Sun
for Friday, having brought the entire of the debate on Thurs-
day and the division.

(From the Clare Journal [Ennis] March 2.)
We have to return our best thanks to the Messrs. Johnston,
of Eden-quay, for transmitting us an Express Edition of the
London Sun, containing the division upon the amendment
moved upon the Address to the King's Speech.
(From the .Belfast Commercial Chronicle of March 2.)
EXPRESS.—From the polite attention of the Messrs. John-
ston, the respectable Newspaper agents in Dublin, we yester-
day morning, received, by express, The Sun of Friday evening,
with the remainder of the debate on moving the Address, and
its results.

This instance of spirited expedition, so well seconded by the
agents in Dublin, will be considered the more remarkable,
when the public are informed that, so far as Belfast is
concerned, The Sun has, on this important occasion, had
the start of an the other London Papers by four-and-
twenty hours !
( From the Limerick Times of March 2. )
The most extraordinary dispatch, in the way of Express
news, occurred in Limerick on Sunday. On that morning, at
at nine o'clock, we had Express copies of The Sun London
Paper of the Friday preceding, containing the full debate upon
the Address, although it was not until twenty minutes after
two o'clock on Friday morning that the House adjourned.
This dispatch surpasses anything of the kind hitherto on re-
cord. The Sun was forwarded by our vigilant and excellent
agents, the Messrs. Johnston, of Dublin, whose establishment
now ranks among the first in the United Kingdom.
(From the Cork Mercantile Chronicle of March 2.)
An express arrival of The Sun of Friday conveyed the
gratifying intelligence of the second defeat of the Tory Mi-
nistry upon the Amendment, which was carried by a majority
of 7; there being for the original Address proposed by Mem-
bers 302, and for the Amendment 309. We have to offer
renewed thanks to Messrs. Johnstone and Company, Eden
Quay, Dublin, for the Express Edition of The Sun of Fri-
day morning, which we received yesterday with the debate on
the Address, and majority in favour of the Amendment.
(From the Dublin Evening Post of March 3. )
Txe CRISIS.—On Saturday evening, after the country mails
had been dispatched, we received through our news agents,
Messrs. Johnston, of Eden-quay, an express, bringing the
third edition of The Sun newspaper, containing the entire of
the debate on Thursday, and the Division. * By an
extraordinary express of The Sun which, thanks to the energy
and activity of our news agent, Mr. ,Johnston, has just reached
the office of the Dublin Evening Post, we are enabled to lay
the result of the great debate, which has occupied so much
and so intensely the public mind, before the reader.
