The Secret Committee of the House of Lords -coritioire
their inquiries daily into the contents of the Green Bag; but.
the depositions being very numerous, amounting, as we Ml-
derstatal, to more than '7O, no litnelsas as yet been appointed
for making the Report. It is believed that so soon as th'e
Report shall be laid upon the table, recommending, as from
the nature of the inquiry it cannot fail to do, the 'institu-
tion of furrner proceedings a-gainst 'her Majesty, a Bill
Divdree and Degradation ill be brought into tire House
of Lords, and read a first litre. Time will thou lust ranted
to the Queen to procure such 'evidence as her Majesty's law

granted to the aueen's Counsel fur collecting and preparing

Tilt CITY OF DUBLIN ELECTION.

SECOND DAY-NIONDAV, JUNE 26.

We copy the following from The Dublin Even-
ing Post of T.tesclity. We suppose it must be
!tad, like all election news, with allowances for
the particular (patter from which k may pro-
ceed

it is with p.sin that we have to mention a
most ddrii,g vioiaiioll of the ft evtlorti of election,

and the gros•est psr'iality exercised Witkout dis-
guise against the popular candidate at the present
election. Mt. GrAtian's tally• rooms are s!toated
at the Opposite side of the street trout the hust-
ings; towards the middle of' the day Mr. Ellib's
tally rooms began to fail ; Mr. Grattan's electors
had collected in great numbers about the rally-
rooms, and were expressing their anxious hopes
of the probable result of the poll, when the
horse polke, who were drawn tip in front
of Mr. Ellis's tally-rooms, attacked them;
they struck the people with their swords, and
one man was knocked down, and his head cut
open ; several others received many wounds
and injuries. Mr. Grattan's carriage standing op.
po,ite =be hustings, a trtend of his (Mr. Williams,
the master of a most respectable Corporation) as-
cended the carriage, and addressed the people and
the electors, protesting against the illegal and
outrageous conduct of the police, and calling upon
the people to be firm anti decided, but at the same
time to be moderate in their proceeding/. While
he ryas standing. on Mr. Grattan's carriage, the
Sherilh came to the Officer commanding the mi-
lita,y guard at Netvgate, that were standing t‘ith
fixed ha yomets in the street, an;l poin(ing at
Williams, %Atli) was in the carriage, commanded
the Officer to make him prisoner. Immediately
the military charged, and surrounded Mr. °reuse's
carriage; the horse police charged with their
drawn swords, and Mr. Williams, together with
another elector, were dragged out of the carriage,
beaten by the police-men, and the mili!taty with
their mu.kets, and taro n into Newgate, where
Williams remained upwards of two hours.
Mr. Grattan in vain endeavoured to see him, and
to get hitt) surgical aid.

" 'Grattan immediately ascended the car-
riage, addressed time electors, reprobated such
conduct, a►td called upon ihe Sheriff's, who were
within beating, to act towards him as they had
acted towards Mr. Willia►rms, if they conceived
l►e had committed a breach of time peace ; he re-
commended to the people to be film and decided;
he commented on the illegality of the act, arid
declared lie should be happy to go to gaol as Mr.
Williams had done, it by so doing he upheld the
liberty of election. It is hoped the law will
avenge time outrage.

. " Mr. O'Reilly, a highly respectable ciiiten,
observed a certain Alderman exercising what he
(Mr, O'Reilly) conceived to be undue influence
to, procure a vote for Mr. Ellis, an,i) remarked
that such condoct was improper. Some language
not of a complimentary nature ensued, but the
parties separated soon afterwards. Mr. O'Reilly
in about an hour was preparing to enter one of
the booths, when the Alderman cried
" Here's a spy ! Police-men, do your.duty."—
Upon this a -:timber of persons fell upon Mr.
O'Reilly, and assaulted him with great violence.
Fortunately be escaped without much personal
injury. These matters shew the temper and spi-
rit in whit-,b this contest is carried on by the in-
tolerant faction ; but, as we trust they will be
made the subject of solemn judicial investigation,
we will not attempt any commentary upon them.
—The following is the state of the poll, as an-
nounced by Mr. Ellis:*

" F;,r Mr, Ellis
" For Mr. Grattatl

'' According to Mr. Grattan's books the ma-
jolity is only 164, and we arc assured that he has
a great number ut voters in Teserve, whilst his op-
ponent is already nearly exhausted."
TUESDAY, THREB O'CLO'CK We understand
that Mr. Grattan is the leading Candidate this
day ; but such is the confuhion, that it is impos-
sible to ascertain the state of the poll,"

We received this morning the Paris Papers of
Wednesday last. The discussion of the Election
['ruler, in the Chamber of Peers, was closed
on Tuesday,, and the Chamber deterred till
Wednesday the debate upon the respec,ive ar-
ticks, lo the • Chamber of Deputies, the Mi-
nister of the Inierior presented a Projet for levy-
ing for eight years, an additional duty of 15 cen-
titm►es per franc upon patents in Paris; the pro-
duce to be applied to the expences of the Ex-
change. The projet was referred to the Bureaux.
M. GANILti reported from the Committee on the
Budget of Ways and Means. The discussion of
the Projet was adjourned. The discussion on
the Budget was resumed, and again adjourned till
Wednesday. The following are extracts

MAN want firmness enough to point out to her the
indiscretion, we may well say the folly, and al-
most the insanity of her conduct, at the present
moment, during inquiries, which ought to impress
a mind of the greatest levity with some sense of
decorum, when she is parading about, in order to
procure a contemptible notoriety.--If we could
venture to suppose her guiltv,whicb we might well
do if we were to give credit to almost the hun-
dredth part of what is said against her, we might
imagine that she is adopting her present wild ca-

that the conduct imputed to her proceeded from
the disorder of her intellects, rather titan the
force of her passions—or the depravity of her
heart. limit amidst all this most reprehensible
levity, we will still give her credit for innocence
until evidence of the contrary shall most satisfac-

not give Hats MAIBSTY credit for the understand-

son possessed of common sense would not act
with suCh an apparent disregard of decorum, and
devotion to rabble applause. Her sex,' as well
