THE LATE MR. TIERNEY.

Mr. Tierney departed this life on Monday, the 25th
Jan. at two o'clock in the day. He had laboured under an
organic disease of the heart for many years—certainly
more than ten—with great tendency to dropsical effu-
sions in the chest and in the limbs, attended with cough
and difficulty of breathing, when ascending stairs or
walking on uneven ground. His mind was always cheer-
ful, and the fatal malady never produced the least de-
pression of spirits. His complaint was greatly relieved
by medicines, from time to time, so that he went out into
company to the last. The day before his death he was
remarkably cheerful. A friend called upon him, and
found him reading Lord Byron's Life. They talked and
laughed on various subjects for half-an-hour, and Mr.
Tierney never appeared in higher spirits. The day on
which he died he transacted a great deal of business, and
was very cheerful. About two o'clock the servant an-
nounced Colonel Phipps ; and, to the horror of himself
and the Colonel, Mr. Tierney was found quite dead, sitting
in his arm-chair, with his head reclining a little on one
side, in the position in which he occasionally took a nap.
His Physician was of opinion, that, feeling perhaps a
little faint or drowsy, Mr. Tierney had reclined his head
against the chair, and thus changed the one state of
existence for the other, not only without the slightest pain.
but without the least consciousness of the awful transition!

THE HOUSE OF COMMONS.

TO THE EDITOR OF THE STAR.
Sr —The following statement forms part of an address
delivered by a Gentleman of the name of WELLS, at a
Meeting lately held at Cambridge on some subject immedi-
ately connected with the present state of national embarrass-
ment. There is no Paper which speaks so faithfully as your
own on Constitutional points; and I shall therefore be

obliged if (after inserting the following detail) you will state
also, whether, in the event of a person refusing to pay
taxes imposed by a House of Commons so constituted, it
is your opinion that a Jury would, or rather ought,
legally and Constitutionally to pronounce the party
acquitted from all suits and actions instituted against him
by the Law Officers of the Crown ?
It is my conviction, Sir, that no effectual relief will be
afforded to the people by the Government; and should
the present Ministry in any way tamper with the Crown
or Church property, I shall be fully convinced they are
dishonest at the " core." The first act of a sincere
military reformer, even as a matter of good taste, would
be to cleanse the House of 95 military men; and should
his Majesty permit any infringement of his own greatness,
or of the greatness of the Church, without a prior dimi-
nution of military and naval and money jobbing exactions,
I am perfectly convinced that a revolution is inevitable.
Sir, I am one of those who think that the power of Kings
and of Priests is departing ; and because I believe this,
I am anxious to see (so to speak) each of these parties
" die in their beds" peacefully, orderly ; as the last scene
of men who know that, in common with others they
have dreadfully contributed to national and European;
suffering ; but the sins of Kings and Priests are not to be
named when compared with those of military reformers.
It is a rumour, that a difference existed between Mr.
CANNING and the KING on this very point—the Civil
Officer would have began by retrenching the Army ; but
it is understood that the KING objected to this. I feel
quite assured that MI.CANNING was the true friend, in
this respect, of the Monarch, the Church, and all orders
of intelligent men ; but, oh ! it is fearful to think how
deluded self-interest ever is : the Church preferred the
Duke of WELLINGTON and Mr. Pees.—and the KING
disapproved Mr. CAN N I'm's plans. Mark the result:
the Church are cheated (so to speak) by their own crafty
champions, and the KING has almost made a military
subject into a Monarch. The aristocracy were jealous
of Mr. C. They preferred a haughty soldier; and I
mistake if, like the Church, they do not find themselves
bumbled by his proceedings.
The extravagancies of Kings are domestic extrava-
gancies—the extravagancies of Priests carry still with
them some ameliorating truths—but military extrava-
gancies are pure vanity and barbarism ; and should
the soldierly character spread its influence over the life
of our yet remaining institutions. it will only be permitted
by Poo:ovine/ma to do so in order that we may prove our
" bestial origin ; this will be to put on the very skin of
the beast"— Daniel, vii. 7.
I could indulge myself in many further remarks, but I
have already said more than you may think proper ; and
will only add the statement to which I referred at the
commencement of this hasty note r—
