labilst those who judge Olin the example of England
slight erioneoliay think Ilia we were aßle tb breast
hose difficulties under ivhich any country but Eng-
!And must have sacctimilied. I then laid before you,
:id the Right Hon. Gntleman; what Ireland had
.„e,ldid not conceal From her the sacrifices which
e world be called upob to make, I expressed that
trtiPe which Parliament has fulfilled, a hope that
mould not anticipate the resources of Ireland, for it
ts, u anticipate, you crush them. I presume to say,
trial in the propositions which I lay this day, before
hiW, i give no indistinct evidence of a disposition to
eet the difficulties of our situation, of a desire not
it!) thtilik through any preonal feelings, from the
imposition of such burthens as I think the country is
bile to bear; and if, Sir, at the dose of this long,
eventful and triumphant war, in 'which Britain has
Made etch sacrifices, and in which Ireland has con-
tributed such as Were corresponding to her means ;
if El gland has set a splendid example to surround-
ing nations, bet sister Ireland has been far from
backward in those exertions, by which our national
Character has been raised to its present proud pre-
eminence. Let us not be told, then, that we have
been but a burtben to the Empire, to whose success
we have contributed so essentially. We have given
you him, whom you have this day, for the first time,
teen within your walls, since he an his race of glory
...and whose presence shed a lustre round the House.
He could have told you, in the language of one of
her Most eloquent sons, that the heart Sluices of Ire-
land had been opened in your cause. I will not
speak of any one who may be present, for my Noble
;'.inch is pitsent, under whose Councils that Treaty
has been accomplished, by which convulsed Europe
ha 4 bten restored to its ancient and regulated form;
and if Britain is justly proud of the battle she hai
}ought, Ireland claims a participation in her triumph.
ir H. PARNELL agreed with the Right Hon.
Gentleman in the view he had taken of the increasing
prosperity of Will Finance, and be did not believe
that the teioiirces of a Country bad ever increased in
firapid a progression. But he thought that those
nances should &tlll have considerable relief, to save
them from embarrassment ; for it appeared that the
interest Of the debt of Ireland exceeded her yearlyl
revenue by 4296,292. In consequence of this then
would be a deSciuncy on the peace establishment Of
Ireland of 42,400,000 from her present revenue..,.
Next year; therefore, thole must be new taxes fee
Ireland. to the amount of 42,400.000. But he
thought that if the revenue of Ireland was properly
collected, it would afford a surplus over what it now
produces of 42,500,000. He threw this out to the.
Right Hon. Gentleman as a thing well worth trying,
for it would save the necessity of imposing new taxes.
On this subject the suggestions of the CoMmissioners
Of Enquiry into the Finances o£ Ireland ought to be
attended to. Hi did not mean this as any reflection
tm the Right Hon. Gentleman, or his colleagues in
Government; but he hoped that he would be enabled
next Session to inform the House of the salutary
effects produced by his attending to those sugges&
tions ; namely, the gi/ving an effectual controul to
the Treasury of Ireland over the Collectors there,
similar to that which the Treasury of this country
poisesses over its Collectors. As to the tax on
Fevers of Attorney in Ireland, he considered it as
nothing else but an indirect property tax. It would
operate as a heavy tax on the property of Ireland. as
the Gentlemen continuing in this country could not
coiled ttileir rents themsefves. ft was satisfactory to
find that the revenue of the-Pat Office in Ireland
was increasing. Bet be thought it might be cull
Farther impeovedi by rendering the communicationsi
between different parts of Ireland more expeditious,'
and by conveying the letters with more repistily„.a.'
With rapid to the duty on Spirits, he was tall glad

Mr. PEEL said, that with respect to the tax on
Powers of Attorneyi width the Honourable Baronet
had objected tot there was an easy mode of getihr4
rid of it, by evert well-wieber ref the peace and tran-
quillity of Ireland, natnelyy tor residing en his own
