one benefice consisting of several parishes to hold, anti-

the Irish Church was widely different from what it had
been one hundred yeats ago. Ile (Mr. Goulburn) was
anxious for having a curate or resident incumbent
in every parish ; but that • could not be done at
,once consistent with justice and sound principle. •In the
course of a few days an instance would be submitted
in another place, by one of the Irish Bishops, who
was desirous of dissolving one of these uniotis, and
could only do it by Act of Parliament; The only
ber?fit he derived from it, Would be the payment of
the fees mit of his own pocket, as in the case
,f a private Bill. All the other bishops. were ready to
do the same thing. He felt that it was important to do
everything which could enforce the residence of the
Clergy, and in all those cases where the residence could-
not be effected, to provide an adequate substitute, with
a suitable provision.
Leave was given to bring in the Bill. '

In an article on the Revenue Establ;shments, which

we inserted yesterday, we spoke of Nlr. WALLACE'S COll.

nection with the Parliamentary Commission of Inquiry
in a manner which we fear was calculated to convey an
impression that, since that Gentleman's appointment to
the Office of Master of the Mint, he had ceased to hold
the Office of President of the Commission. This is a
mistake, which it is but fair to the Right Honourable
Gvntleman should be corrected. Mr. WALLACE, after
having remained the whale summer .in Ireland, in the
discharge of his functions as President of the Commis.
sien, was obliged to return to England before the busi•
mess was complc:ed, having the ocher Comm-issioners
to finish what remained to h. done. During that period
Mr. FILM:ELAND LEv.-ts, as next in succession, acted as
Chairman ; but on the return of the Commission to
England, Mr. WALLACE resumed :he Chair, and
has continued to preside, as usual, over the prosecution
of the important investif;ations in which the Commission
is engaged. We need scarcely remark, that Mr. WAL-
LACE'S situation of Master or. the Mint is perfectly com-
patible with his fulfilling the duties of President of the
Commission of Inquiry.

We have received to-day, a fiie.of the Lisbon Gazette,
to the 3d inst. inclusive. It will be tech from the ex-
tracts which we subjoin, that the recent dissolution of
the Brazilian House of Representatives is regarded at

which we may inrer, that something much beyond that

LISUON, JANUARY 30.
Though we do not hear that the Gcwernment has
received any official information of the glo: ions events
mentioned in letters from Rio de Janeiro, of the 20th of
November, which have arrived to-day from Gibraltar,
we are full of the pleasing hope that they will be con-
firmed; and we therefore announce,' with inexpressible
pleasure, that among others there is a letter from Gi-
braltar, o: the 19th instant, written in the house of
Messrs. Morrogh and Walsh, which contains an extract
