(From the Brighton Gazette of Thursday, April 9.)

The spirited Proprietors of The Sun" Newspaper have this
week manifested another instance of exertion and activity, which
must be re.nembered by the public to their advantage. On Sun-
day morning at eight o'clock we received an Express from "The
Sun-office," with copies of the Paper, containing the Debate of
the previous night, with the division in the Lords, reported to
the extent of 18 columns. These were immediately distributed
in Brighton, and the neighbouring towns, and the intelligence
thus distributed at an unusually early hour. An enormous ex-
pense must be incurred by these exertions; for expresses were,
we understand, dispatched by " The Sun" almost every night last
week to various parts of the kingdom.

(From the Birmingha3n Journal of Saturday, April 4.)
The Debate in the House of Lords terminated at half-past one
o'clock yesterday morning ; on the motion of Lord Eldon, it was
adjourned. We would instance, with feelings of obligation, the
very surprising exertions made by " The Sun " Newspaper--as is
usual in that establishment—in this instance. The Express Edi-
tion, containing the whole of the Debate to its adjournment,
reached our office yesterday, (through our agent, Mansell, Union.
street,) at twenty.five minutes to one o'clock, p. m. Thus the
reports of the later speeches were transcribed, printed, and in Bir-
mingham, in Eleven Hours! It is our intention to publish, in a
Second Edition, the conclusion of the Debate—with the division
on the second reading of the Constitution-breaking Bill.

CATHOLIC RELIEF BILL.—At half-past ten, last night, we re-
ceived, through Mr. Willmer, of Lord-street, .0 The Sun" of
Thursday evening, with a report (ten closely printed columns),
of the proceedings up to the adjournment of the House, at one
o'clock on Friday morning. The adjourned Debate, (of? Friday
evening) is advertised by Mr. Willmer, of Lord-street, to arrive
here by Express, in The Sun" newspaper to-night. By this
spirited effort the Liverpool public will receive this important
intelligence, at least fourteen hours sooner than by any other
source.

Tun SUN NEWSPAPER.—The country is under another obliga-
tion to the spirited Proprietors of this Journal, for furnishing it
with the earliest intelligence of the important Debate which took
place, in the House of Lords on the night of Thursday, and on
Saturday, on the all-engrossing Catholic question. An Express
from" The Sun Office" reached Mr. Willmer's, in Lord-street,
on Friday night, at half-past ten o'clock, bringing copies of a
Second Edition of " The Sun," which contained the speeches
delivered on the preceding night, although the House did not
rise until one o'clock on Friday morning ! Late as was the hour
when the Express arrived, the newsmen perambulated the
streets until nearly one o'clock, on Saturday morning, vending
copies of" The Sun." Another Express reached Mr. Willmer's
on Sunday night, at eight o'clock, bringing copies of a Third
Edition of that Journal, which contained a report of the adjourned
Debate on the preceding day, as well as the division on the DU
Such exertions to communicate early intelligence to the country
are truly wonderful, and they will, we have no doubt, be duly
appreciated by the public.
(From the Carlisle Journal of Saturday, April 11.)
THE Sylq NEWSPAPFR.,.-We Ilayo frequently had occasion to
intelligence to the public; and we have now to
notice the extraordinary exertions of the Proprietors of this Paper
to convey early
mention another instance of most extraordinary despatch on their
part. The Debate on the second reading of the Catholic Relief
Bill in the House of Lords did not close till nearly twelve o'clock
on Saturday night, the whole of the speeches in that day's Debate
were printed in " The Sun," despatched by express from London
early on Sunday morning, and reached this city, a distance of up-
wards of 300 miles, by half-past eleven o'clock on Monday morn-
ing ! After some delay, owing to the difficulty of procuring
Glasgow—at the former of which places it arrived at
horses, the Express was again forwarded from this city to Edin-
bounergoloc
h,candk on Tuesday PlOllllOB, and at thd latter (some delay
limping taken place on the road which we cannot yet explain) at
eight o'clock. These exertions must be made at an enormous ex-
pense; but we have no doubt but the public will duly appreciate

them, and properly reward those Who labour go strenuously
their gratification. To the Proprietors of " The Sun " the coun-
try newspapers owe a deep debt of gratitude.

(From the Manchester and Salford Advertiser of April IL)
EXTRAORDINARY DISPATCH.—The spirited Proprietors of
"The Sun" Evening Newspaper made another strenuous and
successful effbrt on Saturday night last, by forwarding " Suns "
express, containing the result of the second reading in the Lords of
the Roman Catholic Relief Bill, to every town of importance in the
United Kingdom. The express, for Manchester, departed from
" The Sun-office," at twelve o'clock, and at six o'clock the follow-
ing even ng, the Papers, containing the whole of the Debates of
the preceding night, with the majority and minority of the
House, were on sale at our Post-otlice. Were this the only in-
stance, on record, of extraordinary dispatch used by "The Sun,"
it would, no ctoubt, excite the utmost astonishment, but we have
frequently, in justice to the conductors of that Paper, had occa-
sion to allu.te to feats of a similar description. - Mr. MURDO
YOUNG, to whose indefatigable management of that Paper the
public are mainly indebted for this surprising priority of intelli-
gence, travelled post from London to Liverpool, in sixteen hours,
on Sunday last ! bearing Papers for all parts of Ireland. So great
was the excitement in Liverpool to learn the result of the Debate
on the "all absorbing question," that the news-venders' offices,
on the arrival of the express, were besieged by applicants, who
displayed the utmost anxiety to obtain copies of "The Sun," by
offering 2s. 6d. each, to receive them immediately.

SCOTLAND.

(From the Inverness Courier of Wednesday, April 8.)

. ,
We are indebted to a Third Edition of The Sun"—a Paper
which makes greater exertions to supply the country with the
latest information on public matters than all other Journals put
together.

(From the Edinburgh Advertiser of Tuesday, April 7.)
By the spirited exertions of "The Sun" Newspaper, who
despatched an Express with a Second Edition of their Paper, con-
taining the whole of the debate, we are enabled to give the divi-
sion on this important question.

(From the Edinburgh Advertiser of Tuesday, April 7.)
We are again indebted to the very spirited exertions of the
Proprietors of" The Sun" Newspaper for the division on this im-
portant question. Soon after the close of the discussion they dis-
patched an Express with a Second Edition of " The Sun" con-
taining the whole of Saturday's Debate, which reached this city
at half-past twelve o'clock last night.

(From the Edinburgh Advertiser of Tuesday, April 14.)

The Sun" Newspaper again made one of those public-spirited
ellbrts, on the passing of the Roman Catholic Relief Bill, for
which it has been so conspicuous under its present Management.
An express for Edinburgh left London at four o'clock on Satur.
day morning, with Papers containing a full report of the proceed-
ings-in the House of Lords on the previous night up to the divi-
sion. The express should have arrived here yesterday morning,
but by some mishap, unexplained, it did not reach the agent, Mr.
Somerville, till last night, a circumstance to be regretted after so
much expense had been incurred.

(From the Edinburgh Evening Courant of Thursday, April 9.)
THE SUN NEWSPAPER.—To the great exertions of the spirited
proprietors of "The Sun" Newspaper, the public in So.tland
are indebted for the first notice of the conclusion of the Debate
in the House of Lords on the Second Reading of the Catholic
Relief till. The Express sent to this city travelled with the
greatest dispatch, and reached here at a quarter-past one on
Tuesday morning, by which the public were put in possession of
the Debate and Division fourteen hours before they could be re-
ceived in the regular course of post.
(From the Edinburgh Observer of Friday, April 10.)
Through the extraordinary exertions of that most spirited
London Journal, " The Sun," we were enabled to acquaint our
readers with the result of the Division in the House of Lords on
the second reading of the Relief Bill, although it did not take
place till half-past eleven o'clock on Saturday evening. The
whole empire, and particularly Scotland, is deeply indebted to the
Conductors of " The Sun" for their efforts on this occasion. The
Express, which brought the Paper containing the Division,
reached this city about one o'clock on Tuesday morning ; and
through the attention of Mr. Somervill, Agent here for " The
Sun," we were in possession of the particulars before we went
to press—thus anticipating the mail of the following evening by
nearly fifteen hours.

(From the Edinburgh Observer of Tuesday, April 14.)
We have learnt, from Mr. Somerville, the agent here for "The
Sun," that the Conductors of that enterprising Paper despatched
an Express from London, at three o'clock on Saturday morning,
with an edition of that Journal, containing a full report of the
debate and division on the third reading of the Relief Bill. This
Express ought to have reached Edinburgh soon after one o'clock
yesterday morning, which would have put the public in possession
of the news a whole day earlier; but by some accident not yet
ascertained, it did not arrive in due course. The activity of
" The Sun" has rendered the whole of the Scottish Editors its
debtors.

(From the Caledonian Mercury of Thursday, April 9.)

THE. SUN NEWSPAPER.—This Journal has again distanced all its
competitors. By incredible exertions, its Third Edition of Satur-
day, containing the whole Debate of that day, with the exception
of one or two unimportant speeches at the commencement, which
appeared in'its Second Edition, reached Edinburgh by express a
few minutes past one o'clock on Tuesday morning; and thus
brought us the intelligence of the glorious result of the discussion
in the Lords, nearly forty hours before it could have reached us
through the ordinary channels. Enterprise like this deserves the
gratitude of the press and the support of the public.

(From the Glasgow Free Press of Wednesday, April 8.)
Limited as our space to-day is, we should be guilty of inexcus-
able ingratitude did we not here express our warm admiration of
the astonishing efforts of "The Sun" Newspaper, which, with a
despatch that is almost incredible, forwarded to this city, by one
o'clock yesterday morning, the conclusion of the Debate in the
Lords on Saturday night, and thus put the public of Glasgow in
possession of what they could not otherwise have obtained until
at least twelve hours afterwards. As " The Sun's" despatch was
expecte,t, crowds of gentlemen thronged the Exchange until its
arrival, and it may well be conceived with what eagerness the
Paper, when it did arrive, was opened, and with what anxiety
it was read. Next to the expression of their feelings regarding
the result of the Debate, was that of their admiration of the
effbrts of " The Sun," and it is due to the Paper in question,
that this admiration should merge into a feeling of grateful and
constant patronage.

From the Glasgow Herald of Friday, April 10.) •
By incredible exertions, and at an expense which we cannot
understand, " The Sun " Newspaper printed a full report of the
Debate of Saturday, which did not terminate till eleven o'clock at
night, and transmitted numerous copies by express to all parts of
the country. We see by the Edinburgh Papers that they arrived
in that city about one o'clock on Tuesday morning, and at the
same time they were received here ; so that there must have been
two expresses to Scotland. Though we could derive no benefit
from this arrival, we are not the less grateful to the Proprietors of
" The Sun " for their spirited exertions, and we trust that public
patronage will in some degree remunerate their enterprise and
liberality.

(From the Glasgow Chronicle of Wednesday, April a)

. ,
We have often had occasion to acknowledge the benefit which
Provincial Newspapers have derived from the extraordinary ex-
ertions of the Proprietors of" The Sun," not only by giving the
Debates nearly to the hour of post, but by sending expresses se.
veral hours after the departure of the mails. Of this despatch
another instance was afforded on Saturday night. The division
in the House of Lords was not announced till half-past eleven ;
yet, by the enterprise of the Proprietors, copies of their Paper,
with the whole Debate and Division, reached Edinburgh at two
o'clock, and Glasgow at eight o'clock on Tuesday morning.
Though too late for the whole of our impression, we were thus
enabled to give in a part of it the earliest notice of the Division.
(From the Dumfries Courier of Saturday, April 4.)

-- - ,
We have received a copy of "The Sun" Newspaper, the Pro-
prietors of-which have actually accomplished what at first sight
appears to be an impossibility. Though some of their reporters
must have remained in the House of Lords till near midnight,
they actually printed in their Saturday's number, and despatched
to all parts of England on Sunday, a full account of the previous
evening's proceedings. This is altogether extraordinary, and we
confiden.ly trust the Proprietors of the excellent print in question
will rise higher and higher in public estimation, and reap more
than ever the reward of their spirited and well-meant exertions.

IRELAND.
(From the Limerick Evening Post of Tuesday, April 7.)
An express copy of The Sun," which arrived at a late hour
last night, brought us a full report of the second day's Debate.
(From the Dublin Morning Post of Tuesday, April 7.)
We have just received the Express Edition of The Sun" of
Saturday night, by which we are enabled to lay the result of the
division on the second reading of the Bill before our readers.

(From the Dublin Morning Post of Monday, April 6.)
At a late hour last night we received, by an extraordinary Ex-
press, The Sun" of Saturday, by which we are put in posses-
sion of the adjourned Debate, which was, shortly after two
o'clock on Saturday morning, further adjourned to one o'clock
in the afternoon of the same day.

(From the Dublin Morning Register of Tuesday, April 7.)
We have received this morning, by Express, a late edition of
The Sun," containing the Debate on the second reading of the
Relief Bill, up to its close on Saturday night, at half-past eleven
o'clock.

(From the Freeman's Journal of Tuesday, April 7.)
THE Dtvisrox.—The Motion for the SecOnd Reading of the
Catholic Relief Bill was carried in the House of Lords on Satur-
day night by a majority of One Hundred and Five. This most
gratifying and glorious intelligence is contained in the Second
Edition of " The Sun " Newspaper, brought to town by Express.
(From the Cork Constitution of Thursday, April 9.)
The Debate was resumed at one o'clock precisely, and by the
extraordinary and unprecedented exertions of "The Sun" Lon-
don Paper, we were put in possession of the proceedings to the
close of the Debate on the same night !
(From the Cork Mercantile Chronicle of Wednesday, April 8.)
NATIONAL. TRIBUTE TO MR. O'CONNELL—We had a portion of
the proceedings of the Meeting held at the Mechanics' Institute
on Monday, in type, when the second edition of " The Sun" of
Saturday arrived, bringing to us the conclusion of the Debate on
the Motion in the Lords, •for the second reading of the Catholic
Relief Bill. We were accordingly obliged, though most reluctantly,
to set aside our previous arrangement, and to postpone to Friday
what we would with great pleasure give our readers this day.

(From the Cork Southern Reporter of Thursday, April 9.)
At an early hour yesterday morning we received an Express
Edition of "The London Sun" of Saturday night, containing a
report of the Debate on the Catholic Relief Bill, up to the division.
We instantly published a bulletin of the gratifying intelligence,
which was forwarded by special conveyances to all the towns on
the Waterford and Limerick lines, at a distance of 30 miles of
road, and to the Dublin and Western lines by the evening
coaches. Our friends in town were put into possession of the
welcome news in about an hour after it had reached us.

(From the Waterford Mirror of Wednesday, April 8.)
RELIEF BILL—The characteristic industry of The Sun " has
enabled us to continue our report to an advanced period of Satur-
day. The final result has not yet reached us. While some per-
sons anticipated an adjournment on Monday, the greater number
expected a division towards midnight. A favourable majority was
expected. Some carried their expectations as far as ill.

The Rev. R. C. DILLort, author of that im-
mortal and never-to-be •forgotten history, " The Lord
Mayor's voyage of Discovery to Oxford," is, we perceive,
advertised to preach a sermon this evening in St. James's
Church, Clerkenwell.

JAMES WHITEBY, some fifty years ago, was
a noted and eccentric theatrical manager, and also a very
penurious one, of which lie once gave tolerable proof.--
