" the question was so remote that it was quite out of
reason to suppose it 'would arise for a very long time."
(Loud cries of " Hear, hear.") The letter Le had alluded
to he had received from the office o' one of the daily
newspapers, and if the right hon. gentleman would
tisny that he had ever written to the effect
sated he would at once withdraw the letter. (Mr. Glad-
stone here asked for the letter, which Mr. Hardy at once
handed to him.) If it was true that the right lion. gentle-
man had writt:-n the letter, he co ild only say that
the opinion which he eutertafned on the subject of
the Irish Church had not been very generally known.
(Ilea; hear.) At all events it was but fair t.) say
that his now born zeal had only existed since 18(35.
(Hear, h:.ar, and laughter.) It might be said he was
now descending to personal motives, but ha would ask,
were no pe..sonalitias cast at her Maj asty's Government
last night? Why t'le.mod envenomed shafts were aimed
at them with most unmistakable intention. (Hear, hear.)
Ile was of opinion that the resolutions proposed a most
uncalled for attack, and it. was ono that would bring
about a state of things few hal had the courage
to contemplate—it would inflict a great wrong
on all those by whom this country was bound by
religion, by blood, by treaty, and, by compact. (Hear,
hear.) A great authority in the house in former years
had declared that the disendowinent of the Esta-
blished Church in Ireland would make private property
unsafe, and had not events shown how property held by
lay corporations was not by any means secure.
But how did they propose to deal with the
rights of the laity in the matter—(hear, hoar)
it was a lay question. They might pay off
the clergy, but how would they deal with those who had
a vested interest in these funds—(hear, hear) how
were they going to compensate those for the interest you
wished to deprive them ? The Government were not led
away by promises, because there was no promise held
out that what they proposed would result in the pacifica-
tion of Ireland, and he begged to ask hon. gentlemen
opposite whether they thought that what they did would
satisfy those for whose good it was said all this was
being done. Why, according to the calm
men of Limerick, everything that Parliament • did
would go for nothing, because they would never rest con-
tent until Parliament granted a repeal of the Union,
and the committal of Irish interests to an Irish
Parliament. But he was not to be blinded by the
opiuons that had been expressed that the ques-
tion had been brought forward purely for the
benefit of the R man Catholic population of Ire-
land—(hear, hear)—it had been got up purely for
party purposes—(hear, hear, and loud cheering)—and by
party it would doubtless bo decided. But what where you
going to get by the great sacrifice you proposed ? Were
you going to secure perfect concord and content-
ment in Ireland! If it was so the opposition
to such a measure would most certainly not come from
his side of the house. But such was not the open and
avowed intention of those who brought forward the ques-
tion. 'He was cot prepared to separate England from Ire-
land in religious matters, and would never consent to b 3
a party to severing that union of Church and State whose
glorious work it had been to uphold the light of the Re-
formation in the midst of Ireland. The right hon. gen-
tlemen concluded his speech amidst prolonged and enthu-
siastic cheering. _ _ _

Mr. GOSCHEN congratulated the house that at length
they had been informed what construction they were to put
upon the Amendment, and what was the precise issue be-
fore them. They now knew what the prase " consider-
able modifications" meant. It was clearly not a reforma-
tion of the Irish Church in the sense that the Liberal
party understood a reform to be necessary, but modifica-
tions within the Church itself. That being the fact, he
held that it ought to have been stated on the face of the
amendment.

Mr. M'C. TORRENS spoke at some length in support
of the resolutions, and entreated the house to riso above
petty cabals and to quoque arguments in considering the
question.
Sir H. BRUCE, who addressed the house from below
the Ministerial gangway, denounced the demagogism
which stirred up sedition and rebellion among the Irish
people. Lot Ireland alone, let the demagogues and agita-
tors be put down, and she would be peaceful and tranquil.
As to the disestablishment of the Church, it would inflict
a blow upon that country and upon that portion of the
population which had alway s stood by the English
Government in times of difficulty that they would never

In the week that ended on Saturday, March 28, 4,959
births and 3,025 deaths were registered in London and in
13 other large towns of the United Kingdom. The annual
rate of mortality was 25 per 1,000 persons living.
The annual rate of mortality last week was 22 per
1,000 in London, 31 in Edinburgh, and 29 in Dublin ;
32 in Bristol, 23 in Birmingham, 27 in Liverpool, 27
in Manchester, 27 in Salford, 25 in Sheffield, 23 in
Leeds, 24 in Hull, 27 in Newcastle-upon-Tyne, and 29
in Glasgow. The rate in Vienna was 36 per 1,000 during
the weep ending the 21st inst., when the mean tempera-
ture was 3.2 deg. Fahrenheit lower than in the same
week in London, where the rate was 22.

In London the births of 1,170 boys and 1,133 girls, in all
2,308 children, were registered in the week. In the cor-
responding weeks of ten years, 1858-67, the average
number, corrected for increase of population, is 2,277.
The deaths registered in London during the week were
1,320. It was the thirteenth week of the year; and the
average number of deaths for that week is, with a correc-
tion for increase of population, 1,636. The deaths in the
present return are less by 316 than the estimated number.

At the Royal Observatory, Greenwich, the mean height
of the barometer in the week was 209904 in. The mean
temperature of the air in the week was 42.7 deg., which
is o'2 deg. above the average of the week in 50 years (as
determined by Mr. Glaishcr). The highest day tempera-
ture was 58'5 dcg., on Friday, the 27th of March. Tho
lowest night temperature was 23'9 deg., on Wednesday,
the 25th of March. The entire range of temperature in
the week was, therefore, 28'6 deg.
