ft to this sittisfactory •conclusion. ( tar, hear,)—.
With regard to the A meokan Government, he thought
itwi at least oOct to be satisfied with this ar-
tangement ; and he had no doubt that they would
be so in reaiity, nor attempt now to impose any terms
ine,,nsisient wilt their former declarations, or the
'mono!' of England
• ssFRANC IS BURDETT concurred in the gene-
ral ~pinion of the wisdom which the Prince Regent's
Government had displayed on the prevent occasion.
Bo &semis one point to which he wished again to
ejl their at:eat:oil, because it was one Which, per-
ms, in,re th.o any other was likely to prevent or
interrupt harnioily with America—he meant the im-
aroirsent of American seamen. The other day he
linient.osi,t the impresstrint of one anis, who,
he eodeistood, was really an American.searnan, and
he should he glad to know whether his case had been
enquired into ?
• hip, CUU4BOURN• said,. that his Honourable
Friend (tir. eviler) being absent, he could not give
y ans-wer to the question. * • •
~I,ord,CAsTI.BREAGIi wished tosobservekthat
in the present stage of the negociations.witleAmt.ric;t,
the most active steps had been taken,• tplpp; *n end
to this source of misundet standing. Out tAinibassa-
-40 had asked a list of all persons in ottrnivle:who
were !opposed to be American seamen, 'and when
twist was procured,,theit.cases would he forthwith
inquired into. . • • n
Mr. PONSON.Br entertained very little doubt,
that the order now issued would be perfectly sada-
lattery to Amerbiai but should she. think proper to
rise in her demands to what was unreasonable and

'unjust, no man would be more iorward than himself
• to support the rights and interests of this conntii.—
Hear, hear.)
'Mr. WHITBREAD had no question that this
steasure, now so happily- adopted, would prevent the
breaking out of hostilities with America. He would
now only observe, Lila one could not contemplate the
bappiness and delight which its prospect had diffused
among the manufacturing -districts of the country.
About congratulating the House and the country
on the occasion; and they would soon have the satis-
faction of going to their several homes, and every
where finding the people employed, industrious and
satisfied.—(Hear, hear.)—It was unnecessary for him
to pass any eulogy on the manner in which his Ho-
nourable Friend had conducted himself through the
whole of the inquiry; that conduct had been witness-
ed by the House itself. He hoped that concord with
America would be speedily restored ; and that toge-
ther with it, in the course of a very few months, an at-
tempt would be made by Ministers to restore peace
with France, which could not fail to be attended with
the greatest blessings to the country, and which he
believed had hardly yet been gone about in the spirit
of conciliation, in any instance.
The Order of the Day for the Call of the House
tin Thurso:ly was then discharged.
IRISH MBEs.
. ldr. PARNELL rose to bring forward his motion
on this subject, whish, he said, the mole •he looked
boa, the more he was convinced there wanted some
regulalion in it. As the s 1 stem was at present, it
was neither satisfactory to the Clergy nor the Laity.
The Right Gentleman opposite _tbdr. kolc)
bail declared his opinion that some regtolatiaia was ne-
cessary. Mr. •Petceval thought so, and firepaiid a
Bill for that purpose, but abandoned *it. afterveßas,
from an ovinion that the measure would not be equal
to its object. Lord Rechsdale and Mr. Pitt had also
been of the same opinion ; and so hart the Noble Lord
oppcsitelCastlereagh), who, in his speech on the sub-
ject, Previous to the Union, had declared as his opi-
nion that the object would be more likely.tcobeobtained
by a Uri eed Parliament. These several opinions, he
thought,fulls authorised him in bringing forward the
subject, ThcHin. Gentleman then proceeded to take a
swim of the causes which rendered a reform in the
Tytbe osttm of Ireland necessary ; and,* after ad-
*ming lathe various evils of the present system, sug-
gaud to the .House whether, instead of the Tytbe
__ . .

law paid, an acreable tax of Is. per acre> which would
produce a greater sum than was now raised for the
Clergy, should be laid CAI eTery acre of land cultiva.
ted ; or, if this were objected to, he would r...insse
that ascertain quantity of land should be assigned to
the Clergy as an equivalent for Tythes. He con-
cluded by moving, that the House would, early in the
next Session of Parliament, take into consideration
the state of the Tythes in Ireland, with a view to
ameliorate the condition of the lower orders of the

people.
Mr. W. POLE did not think the propositions of
his Hon. Friend could be adopted ; the right of the
Clergy was one tenth, but from investigation, it ap.
Feared they clid not receive more than one twentieth,
and in some instances, one thirtieth. His Hon.
Friend's remuneration to the Clergy was t 8 proteed
upon a valuation of livings ; then that valuation Mint
go on the Clergyman's right, and not on what he
actually received. The plan of an acreable tat. woiald
also .he unjust to the farmer : since, by that
acre of the burst wheat would pay no more chat ,tin
acre of the. worst oats ; and pasture land, which ;by
the law, as it at present stood, was tytharee, world
be tendered liable.
Sir J. NEWPORT entered generally into .4iih
fence of the positions laid down by Mr. Parnell; and
contended that an alteration in the Tythe system of
helandwas necessary tip the salvation of that country.
Lord CASTLEREAGH entered his protest
against the principles of legislation laid down by'-the
Right Hon. Baronet. He maintained that the tiro-
Per mode of applying relief in any case wheie grie-
)rance was stated, was for the Hon. Member who
fight it under the consideration of Parliamentt to
paint out a remedy. The Noble Lord deprecated
the prat.ce of stating insulated acts of what .Was
deemed oppression, as cruel to the individual, and
lejurious to the public interest. The Right Hon.
Baronet would have done his duty better if he Had
brought the particular laws within the view of 'the
House, and submitted a motion fur the repeal of
those laws. He denied that any particular pledge I
hadteen given by Man on the anhject. He ad mitte'd
. thatevils certainly cto exist, but he could not suffer,'
the
pro2erty of the church to be considered in an-in- 1
fertor light to any Other species of property hold
under the crown.
Mr. WILliERFOltek was astonished at the dif.
6
culty of obtaining information on the subject of *the
'Jythes in Ireland; but a was evident, that-in many

-

parts of that country the peasantry were much op-
pressed. He should support the motion. •
Mr. SMITH, and Mr. M. FITZGERALD said a few
words in support of the motion.—Alter some further
conversation, the House divided—For the mntion,
36—Against it, 39—Majority against the motion, 3.
