Extract of a priv.Tte letter from Madrid, dated

" A change appears to be effecting in public opittion, front
which new and very interesting combinations have resuite.:,
whereof the most important is an approxitnation between the s
Moderates and the Com:ouneros.. This ails thee, which is on the
point of taking place, and of which the conditions are at this

diately endeavour to open with England, having for basis certain
concessions that the Government here will make forts:ace, and
consequently some modifications in the existiog Constituboa.
" You will be surprised, without doubt, to film! the Com-
mune-ins acting in this affair, hut you will agree that it is ex-

P.atiAIiENTARY PROCEEDINGS.

HOUSE OF LORDS, FEBRUARY ii.

The Loan CRANCILLOR entered the House a little before I
Are o'clock.
Lord GRE'JVILLE presented a Petition from the Bankers,
Merchants, Traders, and other Inhabitants of Wolverhampton,
praying for a repeal of the Insolvent Debtors'AeL—Ordered
to lie on the table.
Lord EL LENBOROUGH said that, In pin-Aram of the
notice he had given on Friday last, the Bill for amending the
late Marriage Act had been presented yesterday, and was now
printed aml lying en their Lordships' table. He now gave notice
that he should move the second reading of the Bill on Monday
nett : and he thought that before that day their Lordships .
would have full and sufficient time to take the provisions of the
Bill into consideration.
On the motion of the Earl of SHAFITSIIIIIT, the House ad-
journed to Thursday next.
HOUSE OF COMMONS. .
The &MAZER took the Chair at four o'clock.
A new writ was ordered for the Borough of Arundel, for a
- Member in the place of licomax BLAKE, Esq. deceased.
On the motion of Mr. CURWE74, a Return was ordered to he
laid on the table of the quantity of Tallow and Hemp, imported
and exported to and from the United Kingdom, during the
year, ending the sth of February, 1823.
Mr. LYTTLF.TON presented a Petition from Wolverhamp-
ton against the Insolvent Debtors' Act ; which, after a few words
from Lord ALTHORTI, was ordered to be laid on the table.
Lord HOBART, in persuance of his notice yesterday, moved
for a call of the House for Thursday, the 20th instant,. the day
of discussiim on the Catholic Question. He considered it need-
less to waste the time of the House by any further observations,
as every Hon. Member would admit the necessity of the fullest
attendanoe on so important a subject.—Ordered.
Lord A LTHORFE gave notice that, on that day week, he
would call the attention of the House to the present mode of
collecting small debts.
Dr. LUSH I NOTON presented a Petition from certain Elec-
tors of the County of Sligo, complaining of interference in the
election of Members for that place, on the part of Lord King-
ston.—Ordered to be taken into consideration ott the 13th Marcb.
Mr. GOULI3URN obtained leave to bring in a Bin to conti•
nue the Irish Arms Act.
Mr. F. LEW IS moved for leave to bring in a Bill to amend
and explain the Turnpike Acts. After a short conversation, in
which Mr. CURVIEN, Mr. H. G. BINVET, and Sir Thous Ace-
lava, took part, the motion was agreed to.
Mr. 110 liliOUS E gave notice, that after Easter he should
resew` Isis motion for the repeal of the Window Tax. But whe-
ther he should press the measure on the House would depend
upon three points—first, whether tke country condoned at
peace ; secondly, whether the motion of his Hon. Friend (Mr.
I%laberly) for the repeal of the whole of the Assessed Taxes
should he carried ; and, thirdly, whether Government itself would
bring forward en effectual measure.
IRISH xzOMANRY BILL.

Mr. GOULBURN, pursuant to notice, rose to move I
for leave to bring in a Bill to amend and continue
the Irish Yeomanry Act, which would expire in the
course of a few weeks. •
Mr. HUME said, that he would put it to the 110-
nourable Gentlemau whether be .seriously meant to
continue the Yeomanry Act of Ireland at an expense
of £66,000 a year, after the Police Pill which was
passed last year,
sand which should certainly render
the present Act unnecessary ? It was really too hard
that the country should be saddled with so heavy an
iiicumbrance to support an establishment which, from
all he understood since 1798, the year of the Rebel-
lion, was of very little service. ..Not.only was it of
little service, but the cause of considerable mischief.
TneYeomanry Corps in many districts were composed
principaily of Orangemen, who, so far from contri-
bating to the peace and tranquillity of the country,
were the principal promoters of every riot and excess.
This was chiefly to be observed in the north of Ire-
land, and it would be in the recollection of many
Honourable Members, that in the course of last-year,
when they were called out, instead of repressing the
disturbances, they aggravated and increased them—
(Hear, bear).—The truth was, that the whole the
Yeomanry establishment of Ireland was a complete
job; and one of the grossest that ever. came within his
observation. The House would scarcely believe, that
by a Paper which he had moved for last Session, and
which he had taken a glance at that.day, there were
tett Brigade Majors retired on pensions belonging to
the Yeomanry Corps : none of them declared to be
unfit for service, and at an expense of £1:171 paid to
them—some of them after only ten or fifteen years
screice! Some who were invalided were, as he un-
derstood, not. older than himself, and in much better
health than he was-(litmghter).—And he would be
glad to ask, whether he could have the face, impu.;
dent as he.was—(Laughter)—to come and ask a pen-
sion for a broken constitutioe ? Such a proceeding,
though sttange here, was nothing new in Ireland.—
One of the times he would particularly allude to was
that of Mr. Collis, who was stated to have retired on
a pension from infirmity of body. He (Mr. Hume)
requested to apply for correction to the Honourable
Member for Sligo, if he was mistating the facts but
ou'derttood that Mr. Collis was not more than 50
rats: of age, both stout and healthy ; that he was
Treasurer to the Couuty, and in possession of his own
income of £2OOO a year. In looking, therefore, at
the Honourable Secretary's Estimates—all drawn up
with great attention to economy, no doubt, to use the
words of the day—they would find in them a sum of
£1571 paid to retired Officers, to make way for those
wiieujoyed £5750 a year from their places—(Rear,
hear).--It was, however, only one of those fifty or
sixty jobs, every one of which was more gross than
the other. He hoped that the House would, before
voting the money, support him in requiring the cer-
tificates on which these Gentlemen were invalided.—
If the accounts were ordered, he trusted to see them
in such a way that the real expense could be got at
--(Hear, Hear).—It was a great shame, in his opi-
ziieti, that, after the measures which were carried last
year, this additional expense should be continued. It
was a tart of the conduct of the Irish Government,
which was For many years managed in the most abo-
r&nable manner—at least so far as regarded consi-
derations of expense. He would not, at present, op-
pose the bringing in of the Bill; but he trusted that,
daring its progress through the House, the fullest in-
formation would be afforded on all points connected
with. the selject.
Mr. GOULBURN said, that he did not think it
necessary to reply to all the topics on which the Hon.
Gentleman (Mr. Hume) had spoken, as the intro-
di.l4tiein
.ef them at present was quite unusual from
are practice of former times; and as they more pro-
perh belonged to the general discussion of the Army
EstiMates--(ffear, hear).--:ludccd, he was not pre-
-o,ll.the instant, to give the particulars of re-
tire:li ent of eachofficer, or the reason why !11r. Collis,
who had been distinctly •alluded .to, was invalided.
He would, however, be ready in his place on arty
'regain- debate on the subject specially, or on the
Army Estimates generally, to enter on a discussion,
„gad eaplaio the points in a manila satisfacterr to the

Honse, if not to the Hon. Member hint lag—(Rtar).—..l
At the close of the war there was a. v,er.considerable
number if Brigade Majors in activeemploythent, a
gnat many of whom were invalidedrind the super-
numeraries were put
.upon half pay. No appoint-
merr had since taken place that was not filled up
from that half-pay list. If therbie, a retired list
could be brought forward as **large
_against the
present Lad Lieutenant, or the preceding Irish Go-
'eminent, it was to be seen that they preferred rather
-filling up all vacancies from the half-pay list than
from their own friends—(Hear, hear).
Mr. ABERCROMBY considered that it would be
,unwise first to pass the Yeomanry Continuation Act,
and then go into an examination of the objections to
it.: For his part, he came down to the House, in
consequence of the notice of the Hon. Secretary, with
the greatest anxiety—a solicitude which every person
must share who observed the critical and alarming
state of Ireland at the present moment, and a Bill at
the same time brought in for establishing a corps of
Yeomanry, to the greater part of which, if not to the
whole, he looked with much anxiety, if not with sus-
picion—(Hear).—He hoped at least that it would not
be pressed through the House until the arrival of the
Attorney-General for Ireland,owho would, no doubt,
bring before them the actual and alarming state of
that country, which required the serious and careful
consideration of the House—(hear, hear)—a situa-
tion certainly nothing novel in the history of Ireland,
where the same causes of discontent were long known
to exist, but which accident had brought before the
public lately—(icar, hEar).—Hc trusted to see all
the circumstances to which he alluded, and-the ge,
neral state of the country, brought before them, that,
on the part of the people of Ireland, a full, general,
and anxious investigation should take place. He
was certain that the Attorney-General for Ireland
would, horn respect to himself, from respect to the
Lord Lieutenant, and to the House, bring all the
circumstances before the serious consideration of Par-
liament— (icar, hear).—He trusted, that before the
discussion on that most important of all questions, ,
the Catholic Question, they would be submitted to the'
House, and- its opinion delivered on .them in the,
strongest and most pointed manner—(Hear).
Mr,
.G09.4111:111N and. Mr. VSZEY FITZGERALD both
rose at the same moments the former was called upon
to go on; the latter accordingly gave way.
Mr. GOULBe RN, in explanation, said that he did
not expect, in merely
.moving for the continuance of
the. Yeomanry Act, ta, be required to go into the
general state of the- country. He did not press the
II motion from any wish- to hurry the Bill through the
formi Of the House, but he submitted it thus early,
in compliance with the wishes of the House, ex-
pressed last Session, that the' Irish business should be
'laid as early as possible upon the table, for the fullest
information of Hon. Members—(Hear, hear).—And
he begged particularly to disclaim. all intentions
of taking the House by surprise—(gear, hear).—The
Hon. Gentleman opposite stated that the Yeomanry
Corps Bill was one which, under the peculiar cir-
cumstances of the country, 'ought not to be conti-
nued. While he (Igr. Goulburn) deferred the dis-
cussion of the general qtiestion to another opportu-
nity, he could, at the present, recall to the attention
of Hon. Members, that Yeomanry Corps have been
Of considerable service to the country. Lest year,
when an immediate force was necessary, the only
force which Government could lay its finger upon
at the montent—not for the purpose of increasing
their patronage, but for .preserving the lives of the
inhabitants--wat that body of inn which was then
spoken g with (o much reprohation--(Heer, hear).
To argue the necessity of their further continuance,
would be to debate a principle which was already
sanctioned both in England. and -I,rehinii—(l/ear).
With respect to the other circumstances which had
been alluded to, be could. Only ply, at present, that
they would become matterof grave deliberation—
(ffeap;,hear),—He would fOr the present abstain from
any: espression of the fielinis of the Irish Govern-
thed upon the M—not from any desire to avoid the
fallen explanatipo, but from a conviction
.that that
moment was not one on which they could enter upon
the subject with advantage either to the Irish Go-
vernment, to the House, or to the country at large.
Mr. -ABEitettomat exPlained gist be did not
intend to give an opposition tQ trie.Continitante of the
Yeomanry Corps, he only said that it should be
looked upon with great jealousy in the peculiar dr-
ciithitincei in which Ireland was then placed, and
he wished that it should be iliOr4d for an ample
opportunity oisliscussing ;be whole qnestion.
Mr. V. FITZGERALD said that he protested
against the wide and sweeping charge brought
against the Yeomanry .Corps of It eland. He was
not prepared to deny. that several objections rn•
be fairly urged against the Corps of many counties;
but to involve in one general charge a body of men,
who have been ilitistrioui in the history of their coun-
try, who have fought for it in danger, and suffered
fatigue in its service; was.extremelyitiliberal. Having
had the honour to command the Yeomanry of the
county (Clare) which he represented, he could prove
decidedly, so far from their being subject to the in-
fluence of Orangeism, there was not one Orangeman
in the corps, and even there were not, he believed,
ten Protestants in it. In a neighbouring county there
was not a single Protestant in the corps, and he
could say of them with pride, that for the last two
years the peace of that part of the country was
to be attributed to their good conduct. Unless it was
to be contended that the Yeomanry should be abo-
lished altogether, the objections to the present Bill
could not be maintained, With regard to the super-
annuation cases which had already been alluded to,
he could, as one not long since. connected with the
Irish Administration, safely say that no superan-
nuation was ever made with a view to make room for
any favourite or dependent of the Goiernment. As
to the special case of Mr. Collis, the Hon. Meakt:er
(Mr. Hume) was not correctly informed on the facts.
Instead pf being tint 44 yeah of age, his years of
service were 45—an invalid and_ a meritorious. Of&
cer. There might be two Gentlemen of the name of
Collts, but he believed he spoke of the same. person,
to whisM the Honourable Gentleman referred. He
wopld not occupy the time of the, House any further,
ashis sole object in rising was to rescue the Yeomanry
Corps from the Actual imputation which was cast
upon tbesm-..-partteularly those in the South of Ire-
land, Wise, had fought 'kir their CODDtTy manfully,
and who were loyal subjectsaid brave 40ites,.
Mr. SPRING RICE was extremely wain -to rot(-

rlin the fait:l[lllWe statement or thelion.Ggtileman
ritigeralii, as far ,as it relkar,t;_dlhelf_d_ma.
pr the Saudi of Ireland, but tho forced hoc a,irery
small Oroportion to the, nutpber..An the, Nor hein
counties, particularly in the province of Ulster,
where they were at least two-sevenths of the whole
population. All the Northern Corps were objection-
able with regard to Orange principles, of which they
openly boasted, and these objections more forcibly
applied to those in Ulster. He would not touch on
the general subject at present, as he looked to some
great measure being likely to be brought forward,
from the developeinent of the late peculiar circum-
stances. Unless some measure was submitted to put
down Orange Associations, and their interference in
the politics of the country, he should feel it his duty,
in the progress of the presenillal, to introduce a
clause to prevent Orange Yeomanry, at least, from
processions, and armed party displays, which al-
ways had the effect of irritating the public mind, and
• led to the worst results.

- -
Mr. VEZEY FITZGERALD, in explanation, ad-
mitted that the large proportion, of Yeomanry was in
the North of Ireland, and to a part of their conduct
objection might properly apply.
Mr. HUME, in explanation, said, as •he was cor-
rected in the statement of one fact, he apprehended
that the Hon. Member (Mr. V. Fitzgerald) was under
a mistake himself; as he found, on referring to the
official document, the name of G. Collis, retired,
25th June, 1816, after ten or eleven years service,
on £136 a year.
Mr. PEEL said, that the number of retired Bri•
gade-MajOrs arose from a great reduction of the Yeo-
manry Corps in the year 1816, and consequent su-
perannuation of many of those Officers.
The debate then dropped, and leave was given to
bring in the Bill.
