surrender the place, replied, that he did not know
that the Sultan his miter was at war with Russia,
and he could not, without his orders, give up the
place which was entrusted to him. Every prepara-

IMPERIAL PARLIAMENT.

HOUSE Of LORD, JUNE 11.

The LORD arAtics.t.Lott heard Appeals until near four
o'clock, when the Mouse adjourned during pleasure.
Upon the House resuming, Lord STANHOPE pre-
sented a petition from Swains&ld, in Devonshire, against
the proposed Corn Regulation Duties, also against the mode
in which the averages Were taken ; also from a place
called Egglington, in Lincolnshire, and praying that the
averages might also be extended to Scotland and Ireland.
Lord DUFFERIN presented a petition from a parish in
Downsbire, against any further concessions to the Roman
Catholics.—(A laugh.)—His Lordship was aware that the
petition was now rendered quite unnecessary, but the peti-
tioners Wkios not aware of that at the time they forwarded
it to biro, and he had therefore taken the earliest oppertti-
laity of submitting it to their Lordships' 411f4ti‘!".
,The Earl of MALMESBURY moved that the House do
resolve itself into a Committee on the Pauper Lunatic
Asylum Bill.
The Howie resolved itself into a Committee accordingly,
and various amendments were made at the suggestion of
Lord Nl,druesbury, ant: approved of, and the Report on the
Bill w.a ordered to he received to-morrow: •
A Mr. Johnston pre rated various accounts fror.i, the
Treasury.
The Earl of ROSEBERRY moved that the House do
reio:ve itself into a Committee on the Scotch Mad-house
Bill.
The Clouse went into a Committee, and the Report
ordered to be brought up to-morrow.
The Earl ef ROSEBERRY moved that the Order of
the day, fur the ft..,tther consideration of the Scotch Law of
Settlement pill, be dlvlntrged, and that the further discus-
sion on this Bill be postponed until Monday next. He
had consented to this on the suggestion that it would not
be convenient to go into the farther discussion on this day..
The Earl of LIMERICK had no objection to the post-
ponement, but trusted that on Monday next the Bill would
ibe sent to sleep for ever.—(A laugh.)
Lord HADDINGTON hoped that the Bill would pot
he seat to eternal rest in so quiet a manner as the' Noble
Earl had suggested.
IRISH LINEN BILL.

The Marquis of DOWNSIIIRE moved that tomorrow
the House do resolve itself into a Committee on the Irish
Linen Trade Regulation Bill, and it was his intention in
the Committee to move thetas regulations be extended to
the South as well as the North of Ireland. His Lordship
was of opinion that all the difficulties alluded to in the de-
bate of last night by 'his Majesty's Ministers might be
overcome if the claims sought for by that debate were
granted. There was not any want of capital in Ireland as
was supposed by some—(hear, heat-)---but the capital was
lying dead and unoccupied, in consequence of the divisions
occasioned by the Restriction Laws; those restrictions once
removed, the Linen Trade a. Ireland, and all its other
trades, would again flourish. TheTarliament had now abo-
lished the Board for regulating the Irish Linen Trade, as
being useless; and now was the opportunity to extend the
benefits of the trade to the Southern as well as the Nor-
thern parts of Ireland. He bad thrown out these hints
perhaps rather out of order, but he did so as he had not an
opportunity of expressing his sentiments on the important
question which had occupied the attention of the House
/luring the two preceding nights.
The Earl of LIMERICK trusted that the benekte of
the li;11 would also be extended, as well to the Western as
to the Northern and Southern parts of Ireland. The liuen
trade was the great staple trado of Ireland, but front the
introduction of machinery into F,cotland, and other places,
that trade had greOlydim iinf measuresis
hed. il
were„i adopted to ly
agreed with
the Noble Marquis, t tint,
si-
lence those political and religious differences that existed in
that country, that trade wculd again flourish there, and
that Ireland, instead of being a inirden, would be a relief
to this country.—(Hear.)
The Bill wss ordered to be brought rip to- morrow (this

day.)
Lord KING presented a petition from one TLOltiaq Fla-
nagan, praying for a Regulation of the Corporate Bodisi
of Ireland.

knowledging The Vote of Thanks passed by the Houma to
his Lordship, and the Officers and Soldiers under his com-
mand, for the services performed at 13hurtpore, and other
places in India, daring the years 1825 and 1826 ; and
that If. Lordship had eammunicated the same to the Army
