with the policy of the Government, but he had stated what he
considered ought to be done. In so doing, he had shown him-
self a statesman and a politician, although, perhaps, he had not
shown himself a skilful tactician, for he could not but recollect
that the Right Honourable Baronet, when in office, always
said, if his plans were found fault with, Tell me
of something better, or mine must be the best—and when out of
office, if he found fault with the plans of others, and was called
on to produce his own, he refused to do so until he was regu-
larly called in and received his fee.—(Cheers and laughter. )
He trusted the British and Irish public would, during
the course of this debate, hear from the Right lion.
Baronet a manly, fair, and bold exposition of his own policy
—(Cheers)—he trusted the Right Hon. Gentleman would not
content himself with merely cavilling at the bye points which
had been alluded to in the debate, but would apply himself to
the real subject of the debate, for the people of England had a
right to know his policy, and he trusted he would not shrink
from declaring it.—(Loud cheers.) He (Sir T. Wilde) sup-
ported the motion of the Noble Lord, and he had no doubt
that the day was not far distant when either such a motion
would be carried, or rendered unnecessary by the adoption of a
wiser, and better, and sounder, and safer policy towards Ire-
land than that which had hitherto been pursued.—The Hon.
and Learned Gentleman then sat down amidst tremendous
cheering, which lasted for several minutes. At the conclusion
of his speech Mr. Wyse and several other Irish Members went
up to the Hon. and Learned Gentleman, and shook him cor-
dially by the hand.
Mr. SHAW explained that after the conclusion of the re-
vision he had remained in Dublin more than a week ; that he
had then gone to England, but had not taken a single original
list with him, but had directed his registrar to make a rough
copy of the special jury list, and send it to him ;
and that was the only copy of the list he had seen.
out of Court. It would have been contrary to law for the
officers to have permitted any one to have had access to the
list until it had been delivered to the Sheriff. The list bad
been delivered to the Sheriff on the 28th of December,
and on the 29th, in answer to an application made by
the traversers' counsel for a copy of the list, he
had stated that he should be glad to give such copy
if it could be shown to him that he bad any power to do so
under the Act of Parliament ; and he had further said, that if
the Crown would consent, he would order his officer to make
out two copies of the list, and furnish one to
the traversers and one to the Crown prosecutors.
He sent down the clerk of the peace to see whether the Crown
lawyers would consent to it or not, but they refused to con-
sent.—(Hear, hear, and cries of " Oh.") The Right Hon.
Gentleman proceeded to explain the omission of names from
the list. Twenty-four names had been omitted in all from the
list, and no more. Of those he believed the greater number
were Catholics. The omission had arisen from pure accident.
'The Right Hon. Gentleman then proceeded to enter into
particulars, and said he had taken the utmost pains to rectify
the mistake. He held in his hand the list of the jurors, and
he could state every name which had been omitted and the
cause of the omission.
Sir T. WILDE said the Right Hon. Gentleman had not
at all touched upon the point to which he had alluded, which
he ( Sir T. Wilde) contended had been left in as unsatisfactory
a state as before. What he alluded to was the refusal
of the sheriff to allow the books to be inspected by the
traversers, without the consent of the Crown.
On the motion of an HON. MEMBER. the debate was spin
adjourned.
The other Orders of the Day were then disposed of, and the
House adjourned at a Quarter to Three o'clock.

ILLNESS of the KING of SWEDEN

STOCKHOLM, FEB. 9.

BEEEETtss.—FEn. 7, ONE, P.M.—Yesterday afternoon his
Majesty was tolerably easy, but his appetite had diminished.
He did not pass so good a night, and his sleep was disturbed,
partly by pain in the foot, and partly by general restlessness,
but without fever. This forenoon his Majesty has been
fainter than on the preceding day, and his appetite continues
to diminish. There is no perceptible change in the foot.
FEB. B.—Yesterday afternoon his Majesty took some food,
and afterwards had some tranquil sleep, till past midnight.
Since two o'clock this morning his sleep has been more dis-
turbed. This forenoon he was rather better than at the same
time yesterday. There is no change in the foot.
- FEB. 9.—His Majesty has experienced no change since the
last bulletin, only that he did not sleep so well during
the night.
The Aftenb/ad,;which, in the little that it has said respect-
ing the august patient, has hitherto been pretty well in-
formed, says that yesterday morning he was free from fever,
but that he was very weak. To-day the same paper says—
" We understand that his Majesty's situation gives some cause
for apprehension, inasmuch as he cannot take with appetite
any such food as might give him some strength, and he has had
scarcely two hours' sleep since yesterday ; so that the faint
hope, which was entertained for some days, appears now to
vanish." And, in fact, the public begin again to feel some
uneasiness, which no journal expresses so strongly, accom-
panied with so much dissatisfaction, at the meagreness of the
bulletin in the Swenska Minerva.
