The Duke of BUCCLEUGH is to move the Address in
the House of Lords, and the seconder is to be thil Earl

of GLENGALL.

The Prince LEOrOLD of SAXE COBURG goes to
Greece—as we announced some time since—but not as
IC ix . He is to have the sceptre, but not the crown.
There is in this instance so far a difference between the
name and the thing, that the giving up of the name has
healed a serious difference in High Quarters.

There is a panic on 'Change. Console are falling I
from hour to hour—at one time to-day they were at
91i—but we believe, at the hour in which we go to
press, we can console the country by confidently stating
that they are at 92 !

Letters from Chili to-day, mention that the Govern-
ment hive dismissed all Chili= Officers in the service of
Peru, which looks like a desire to show disapprobation of
the Peruvian War.

The Right Honourable GEORGE TIRREET—a man
illustrious by himself, and illustrious by association—has
paid the debt of nature. A paragraph which does great
justice to him, will be found in another column, copied
from the Times. We differ somewhat from our Con-
temporary on the subject of Mr. Timm Ex's oratory,
which we think was always high above the colloquial,
though never disfigured with meretricious ornament, and
seldom affecting lofty flights. In debate, he was a keen
respondent ; and the Times has well said, " if he could
not succeed in carrying the opinions he espoused, he eel-
does allowed his adversaries to boast of a personal
triumph over him." His reputation as a distinguished
speaker • was probably fixed, by his memorable reply
to PITT, on the third of December, 1798, when he
moved Us heft celebrated resolution, which intro-
duped the tax upon Income. It abounded in appeals
of energetic and simple eloquence, and was received with
daidnuous ' cheers by an admiring auditory. In that

I reply, Mr. TIEZWLY made s direct attack on Ecclesi-
astical and Corporation property, which almost electrified
the House ; an attack, which roused the pampered
minions of the system who sat around him, and caused
the " /tear " of astonishment to reverberate from bench
to bench.

" There are many valuable things under the Church

establishment"—said the Right Honourable Gentleman—
" not in the smallest degree beneficial to religion, but
to swell out the pomp, and pride, and imaginary great-
ness of some inflated individuals—which ought to be
brought in aid of the public burdens. The in-
dividuals possessing these things ought to be
made to contribute their full share. The Corpora-
tions also are liable in the same manner, as I conceive"—
[Here a cry of hear ! hear! hear!] Mr. TIERNEY pro-
ceeded. " I do not precisely understand what gentle-
men mean, by this sort of vociferation. I, fur my
own part, would not take the property of any
body of men as a sacrifice to the State altogether,
but, when you tell me, that violent hands must be laid
on the property of the public, then I will tell you it
ought to take another direction, and, I am now pointing
out to you THAT direction."

His Grace, the Duke of WELLINorow has, we be-
lieve, been taking a lesson from this old debate. Mr.
TIERNEY was out of office from 1807, till the accession
of Mr. CANNING, in 1827: he retained place—as
Master of the Mint—during the ephemeral convulsions of
the GODERICH Ministry, and was considerably
mixed up with those, to this day unintelligible and
discreditable intrigues, which ended in its dispersion
before the scorn of the country. Of that mysterious
cabal, we will only register here our regret, that a
name like GEORGE TIERNEY, should have been ever
sullied, by juxtaposition with the name of HERRIES.

We never object to see paragraphs of important autho-
rity and general public interest—and such frequently

make their appearance in the Sr* n—transferred from
it into the columns of our Contemporaries. There is,
however, a decency of acknowledgment, in all cases
where the adopted intelligence is both peculiar and ex-
clusive, which no mind habituated to the suggestions of
a gentlemanly delicacy can preetermit, without sinking in
its own esteem. Our announcement on Saturday last,
that the Address in the House of Commons was to be
moved by Lord DA aux Grow, and seconded by Mr.
WARD, the City Member, was a case precisely of
this description. The Morning Journal, who copied
it yesterday, did us the justice to annex the channel

of his authority ; it was handsome—but it was
only right : he showed, by that, his instinctive
gentlemanliness. The Courier stole it in the eve-
ning, without the most distant hint of the source
from which he took it; and palmed upon the public—
with an impudence that well matched with his low-
minded larceny—the authoritative intimation as his own.
This is not the first time, that the Courier—with all his
boasted sources of official communication—has enriched
his columns with intelligence pilfered from the STAR.
We would not notice it now—we did not intend last night
to notice it at all—except for the corroboratioq afforded
this morning by some of our most respectable Contem-
poraries, to these dishonest pretensions of the Courier.
We find the paragraph copied into the Morning Herald,
and the Courier given as his authority : it appears, also,
in the Chronicle; but there, its origin is left in obscuro.
We feel it a duty, which we owe not less to ourselves,
than to the Order to which we belong—not my
Lord GREY'S " Order," but one, Deo juvante, that will
be more influential far—to enter our protest against the
reciprocation of such illiberal practices. We believe that
the Morning Herald, in quoting the Courier as his au-
thority for a paragraph stolen by that paper from the
STAR, did so inadvertently, and with no desire to rob us
of its rightful attribution : indeed, the marked civilities
which we have more than once experienced at his hands,
make it impossible for us to suspect that he would degrade
himself, by becoming an after accessory to such a fraud.
We leave him, therefore, to his intuitive proprieties, in
the full confidence that he will do us justice ; and we
close these remarks—which we felt it due to the dignity

of the Press to make—with an appeal to our respectable
Contemporaries, whether it do not derogate from their
estimation in honourable eyes, to abet or countenance
such meannesses as we have just exposed.

No country in Europe has so much cause to complain
of neglect as Italy. Of that beautiful and interesting
portion of the world—its moral and political state—we
are left in total ignorance. It is true we sometimes find a
notice of Rome,Florence, and of Naples,in the newspapers,
but it is only to announce the arrival or the departure of
'some great English absentee. It is therefore with
store than ordinary pleasure we find an exception to
'this general censure in a Paris Paper, in an article
which we this day insert in our columns. It is,
we trust, a faithful picture. What a lessen and rebuke
to the authors of the cruel tyranny which has distracted
these regions, so highly endowed by nature, that all its
efforts have failed to extinguish the spirit of liberty,
and that freedom of mind, still survives beneath its op-
pressive weight, like vegetation beneath the snow.
'Providence has ordained that nations, like individuals,
should have their trials; and it is in human nature that
tbees should be necessary to a just estimate of the bleu-
lags of life. When the hour of its regeneration shall
arrive, the wrongs inflicted upon Italy will teach it to
maintain its rights with an obstinacy worthy of the
glorious race of men who once inhabited its smiling
rallies, and from whom the world at this day derives the
most brilliant portion of its intellectual light.

Some of our contemporaries speak contemptuously
the contribution of the Court Newsiness, as a literary pro-
duction, to their columns. They cover with ridicule no

the fact that Mr. TIERNEY is no more. We
know not with certainty what was his age; but he
must be the last of nearly ten of that galaxy of
talent which illuminated the House of Commons by
its brilliancy, from the close of the American war and
during the tempestuous season of the French Revolu-
tion. FOX, BURKE' SHERIDAN, WINDH•M, PITT,
are all gone before him. Inferior in brilliance, but
almost equal in argument, to Fox,—leas burdened
with the trappings of learning, and less perplexed
with the refinements of metaphysics, than Bu ex le or
WIN DH•lt' —second in wit, but more abounding in
wisdom, than SIIHRIDAw,—Iess sonorous andins will
attention PITT,—Mr. TIERNEY was generally he
attention equal to any of these illustrious persons, Is
abe debate ; and if he could not succeed in do
aphides' he espoused, he seldom allowed his
to boast of a personal triumph over him as their advo-
cate. Mr. TIERNEY'S speeches were more like collo.
quial good sense spoken in the parlour, than lofty or
studied eloquence uttered in the Senate : and be was
therefore spared the pain of many a broken metaphor
and redundant clause, given merely to round a sen-
tence. He was sagacious in an eminent degree. His
enemies have given the quality a less engaging epithet;
but whether it were sagacity or Cunning, in him it was a
pure and useful quality ; for it is but too obvious that it
was never exerted to promote his own personal interests.
Perham' there might be the less digt= abroad to ex-
cuse or pardon it to its possessor, it Was but toe
successfully exercised in detecting and exposing the
selfish motives of others.—Tiaass.
