CALL OF THE HOUIE.
--- -

Mr. O'CONNELL rose to move that the order fur the
call of the house be postponed till Monday week. He had
been assailed for continuing the notice, and he was threat-
ened with resistance. Was it too much to ask gentlemen to
attend to their duty ? Was the English bill the only bill of
conies:turner ? NVere the rotten boroughs in schedules A
and B of more consequence than the representation of Ire-
land and Scotland? It he experienced resistance, it would be
a proof bow little the interests of his country were attended
to. (Cries of • no, no.') They knew nothing of these a noes'
on the other side of the channel ; they were there a simple
race ; and they looked to deeds, and not to words. He
moved that the call be postponed to Oct. 10.
Sir R. VI'VY AN was rather surprised at this language.
(Hear.) It was a great deal too high. Whatever place he
represented, he should speak as a member of parliament ;
and he should obey only the dictates of his conscience.
But the interests of Ireland were not attended to 1 Why,
was not more than half their time consumed in discussing
the affairs of Ireland ? What more could be done ? After'
what had passed this afternoon, and feeling how Inconve-
nient it was to have this motion hanging over the heads of
members from day to day, he should move that the order be
discharged.
Sir. J. NEWPORT observed, that if Members were not
prepared to attend their duty constantly, they did not duly
perform the duty for which they were delegated. He con-
sidered that the order was perfectly correct, and that it
ought not to be discharged.
Air. C. FERGUSON did not care which Bill took pre.
cadence, but he could not admit that the business of Ireland
was neglected.

Mr. HUNT also complained of this attack on the Bei-
this House of Commons, for not attending to Ireland—a
charge that was most unjust. He also complained of this
dragooning of the House, and requiring the attendance from
right, and on the suggestion of one who had never been re-
, turned twice by the same constituents. (Loud cheers and
laughter from the Opposition.) Why was there to be a cell
for Ireland, and none for Scotland ? He had no objection
to the call ; but let It be impartially enforced.
Colonel SI BTHORP saw no necessity for this all. It
was not required for England--why should it be asked for
Ireland ? He hoped the amendment would be pressed.
Lord A LTHORP lamented that this motion had been
so mixed up with extraneous matter, and particularly
that it should have been asserted that Irish affairs were not
duly attended to. He considered that the contrary was
the fact. The most important Irish questions had been
brought forward by English members : Air. Fox was the
first to bring forward the Catholic Qtestion. The fullest
attendance was most desirable. He would not hays moved
the all, but being proposed, he did not feel it to be his duty
to oppose it.
Sir R. PEEL lamented that Ireland could never be
mentioned without the Introduction of unpleasan remarks
and feeling ; he hoped the time was not far distant when the
Irish and English members would feel that they represented
one common country, and had common interests. Much
inconvenience had resulted from allowing the call to be
daily hanging over their heads; and it tended to diminish
the force of the call. If the question were pressed to
a diviel,m Its should, though wi'h pain, support the amend-
ment.

Mr. SHIEL said, the objection was rot to the call, hut
to the postponement ; and that he thought the call ought to
be enforced. The Irish Members had stood by the English
Members in supporting the English bill, and they, there-
fore, had the right to call on the English Members to sup-
port the Irish bill.
Mr. H. ()RATTAN spoke to the like effect. There
ought to be enforced a full attendance of English Members.
Sir C. FORBES said he phrruld support the Hon. Mem-
ber for Kerry's motion ; there ought to be the fullest at.
tendance.

Mr. O'CONNELL replieti. lie repeated that there
eught to be the call. Was it not desirable to have the fullest
attendance? Why was not the Irish bill read a second time
this week ? Why was a whole week to be lost ? But the
call was to be resisted, and Ireland would know the fact,
and how be was received in endeavouring to press the
motion.

Sir R. Vl'Vr AN said the hon. member should not be
gratified ; he would not press his amendment. (Cheers.)
Mr. HUME thought the member for Kerry had not been
fairly used ; he was not amenable for the postponement of
the bill; the Postponement of the call was a natural con-
sequence. The interruptions that had been offered to the
motion were not gentlemanly they were unbecoming an
assembly of English gentlemen. (Order.) The interruptions
were of a character that he deemed to be unbecoming. lie
considered that the member for Kerry had only done his
duty. (Hear.)
Amendment withdrawn, and original motion carried.

■IL6IUM A AAA EECE.
Sir R. VYVYAN brought forward his proposed inquiry
respecting the employment of French officers in the Belgian
army, as with such employment the Belgian army must be
to a considerable extent under the command of France ; he
wished to know whether such employment was with the
unction of this country and the other great powers ? Also,
whether the recent occurrences in Greece had attracted the
attention of government ?
Lord PALMERSTON replied, that this country could
not interfere with the organization of his army by an Inde-
pendent sovereign, and one who was recognised as such by
this country. Therefore, as the first question, he could give
no answer. As to the second question, respecting recent
I and painful occurrences in Greeee, where there was such ea-
lamitous agitation, he had to express the hope that the sea-
dement of that country might soon be effected; and to re-
ply, that as to the recent event, it was now under the anxious
consideration of the Conference of the three powers, and he
trusted that it would be attended witJ the most satisfactory
result.

The conversation here dropped.
IRELAND-LEASE'S CASE.

Mr. O'CONNELL, pursuant to notice, rose to move
for papers illustrative of Leary's we, who, with others,
had been accused of conspiring to commit a murder in Ire-
land. He was found guilty—but all the others were ac-
quitted, because because the Jury disbelieved the evidence. Yet
was transported for life, in spite of the efforts of
Baron Penefather to avert such sentence. He could prove
that fact at the Bar. The Judge did not desire delicacy to
be observed—and what dilleacy was to be observed towards
resist

the Government ? Why the production of these
documents ? He concleded with moving for copies of all
communications with the Irish Government on Leary's
case, &c.
Mr. STANLEY said, that personal feeling could have
nothing to do with his observations on this moment—for it
took place under the late Administration. he objected to
the motion, because the House could not be made a court
of appeal—nor ought confidential communications to be pro.
dua&

Mr. O'CONNELL explained, and insisted on an oppor-
tunity being afforded for investigation.
Lord ALTHORP thought that the mode of investiga-
tion wu quite inconsistent with the practice of the House,
and quite contrary to the practice of the law of the land.
Eir C. WETHERELL opposed the motion, because be
considered that any advice furnished by a Judge on a case
could only be founded on his notes of the trial. and conse-
quently would be the data on which he had given his judg-
ment. If the motion was sustained to call for private awn.
munications, it would be wresting from the hands of the exe-
cutive Government the prerogative it possessed, and vesting
it in the House of Commons.

Mr. JEPHSON supported the motion. He thought,
that at it was in consequence of a subsequent correspondence
that the innocence of the man had been established, they
ought not to be met by a precedent, and refused access to the
communications that had taken place.
Mr. CR A SIPTON said, the honourable and learned
gentleman had shown great humanity in bringing forward
the motion, and had evinced much temperance In the man-
ner he had do, it ; but he could not agree with the honour.
able gentleman that the House of Commons could furnish
so dangerous a precedent as to call for private correspondence
'between a judge and the executive government. No judge
would ever correspond with government if he thought that
his private communications were to be made the subject of
such an investigation.
Mr. CA LbAGH AN supported the motion. Ile thought
that no place was more fitting to bring forwatd the case don
unfortunate but innocent man than the House of Commons;
and he hoped that his Majeaty's ministers would rot shield
themselves under any technicality, but would sanction the
investigation to do the individual justice
Mr. H. GRATTAN said, the information could not be
called private, but public information ; and he thought in
justice they bad a rig* to call for the report.
Mr. D. W. HARVEY said, the house did possess the le-
-1 &home power to act in appeals of judgments given ; hut
there was ao rule without exception, and he thought that after
the ample testimony of the man's innocence, his Majesty's
ministers ought to yield to the motion, in honour to them.
asil vow , awl, ewe edilieva, as the great arbitrators orjusticie,
and to make the necessary inquiry, and, at their convenience,
report to the house the result of their investigation.
Mr. HU3IE thought it was an extreme hardship that be-
cause of any technicality an innocent man should, in the latter
stage of life, be transported to 'die In disgrace in a foreign
land. He thought the case was so strong u to call for an
exception to ordinary practice; and if his Majesty's Govern-
ment did not approve of the mode prescribed, let them name
any other; tut he ( Mr. Hume,) if Ministers did not con.
sent, would recommend his hon. and learned friend not to
relax, but to proceed and call for a division.
Mr. STANLEY thought the late Government had not
been fairly dealt with in the debate. and he thought It would
be extremely inconvenient for one Government to be called
upon to revise the acts of a former Government; but he
would pledge himself, now that the case had been brought
under his notice, that he should with the greatest care refer
to the papers, and if there appeared any thing that had not
been laid before the former Government, or any thing that
made an impression on his mind, the case should have his
utmost attention.

Mr. OTOisiiiELL withdrew his motion. He said he
was satisfied with the assurance of the Right Hononourable
Secretay.
Mr. lIIILDMAY presented a petition from the inhabi-
tants and householders of the town 'bf Winchester, that an
Opportunity might be afforded Mr. Baring to clear himself
of the calumnious allegations that had been made against him
in the case of the Denies.

Colonel EVANS wilt* had a petition to present of di-
rectly opposite sentiments, and Implicating Mr. Baring.
The petition was real at length.
Mr. HUME complained that the case should be at all

discuued until the wintry should hays been feentally said.
toted. He said that on aseesnt of the opposite pedtions
being in eziatearo. sub ►ad been the understanding.
Mr. A. BARING rase to epplain.
Mr. HUME explained.
After a few words Bun Colonel Evans and Sir C. We-
211ZRZLI.,
Colonel TRENCH said, be thought the whole wee a
gross conspiracy, got up to wound the feelings of the mem-
ber for Thetford.

Colonel EVANS asked the hon. member. to whom be
alluded when he used the word "conspiracy ?"
Colonel TRENCH said. it would be sufficient for the
hon. member to know that he did not allude to him.

Mr. HUNT was also of opinion that It was a gross and a
foul conspiracy (bear) ; but it was a conspiracy against an
undefended man and woman. (A laugh.)
After a few words from Mr. Rosman*, and other mem.
hers, the petition was onlered to lie on the table.
Mr. HUNT presented a petition from the North.wcatcro
branch of the National Union, praying for an inquiry into
the Deacle case.

The petition ha►ing'been read,
Sir C. WETHERELL objected to its being received,
because It did not state whether the individuals wbo signed
it were members of the National Union.

Some discussion arose on this point, which ended by Mr.
Hunt's consenting to withdraw the petition.
Mr. HUM B presented three petitions, praying fora simi-
lar inquiry ; the first from a piece in Buckinghamshire; the
second from Louth, in Lincoln,hire; and the third from
Thomas and Caroline Deacle.

Mr. O'CONNELL said, he had that day received a corn •
munication from Mr. and Mrs. Deacle, requesting that the
motion fora Committee of Inquiry might be postponed till
Thursday. They said, they understood Government intend-
ed to oppose the motion, and they wished, in consequence,
to be enabled to bring forward their case fully. He trusted,
therefore, the gallant Colonel would postpone his motion.
Colonel EVA NS was ready to postpone It.
Lord ALTHORP thought that to postpone it without
some strong reason being give for so doing, would be unfair
towards the accused party.
-Mr. CA MPBKLI. was opposed to the delay.
Mr. O'CONNELL thought tbedelay should be granted,
as it might tend to throw light on this most important ques-
tion The question was, whether the people of England
were to be subject to the same system of tyranny and injus-
tice as Ireland had unfortunately been ?
Mr. BARING said, the learned member, whilst be spoke
of the injustice done to Inland, was himself committing
the grossest piece of injustice. He did believe now that
there was a conspiracy against him. The lion. member
was no doubt threatening him with some new petition, got
up amidst the dregs of the people. He might bring for.
ward his calumnies night after night, and make himself
the tool of a vile conspiracy ; but he (Mr. Baring), if the
gallant officer should postpone his motion, as he feu no
doubt at liberty to do, should himself at once bring for-
ward a motion praying the house to appoint a committee
to inquire into the hardships and cruelties of which he
had been the object, and after the house had given its
decision, he should no longer condescend to answer those
attacks and those calumnies. Was a party to lay before
the house, night after night, documents inflaming the
public mind, and petitions purporting to pray for inquiry,
and then, when the motion for an inquiry was brought
forward, to ask that it might be delayed ? How could
the hon. member, if he had any sense of justice in his
bosom, give his countenance to such conduct, or, if be did,
how was any society of gentlemen to consider hot ?
Mr. O'CONNELL hoped he would be allowed to say a
few words after having been thus assailed. (No.) He said
he had been assailed, mailed in a most brutal manner.—
(Cries of order, sad chair.)
Sir R. INGLIS rose to order.
Mr. O'CONNELL was ready to ackaowledge that he
had used the word hastily, and readily apologised for it.
But he had been most unjustifiably attacked. Was the part
he acted any thing but natural, when he heard it alleged,
that a woman had been handcuffed, that no Jury had con-
victed; when he saw one party rich and powerful in that
house, the other poor and without support. That party had
been hitherto without a zealous advocate ; but they had one
now. Conspiracy ! and what could he have to do with their
English conspiracies? The Hon Member had challenged
inquiry ; he ( Mr. O'Connell) should take great care that an
inquiry was had. He called on his gallant friend to bring
on his motion; they would then see whether this desire for
an inquiry was real.
Colon, EV ANS said, that after what had taken place, be
should not postpone his motion. He thought the modera-
tion with which he had treated the subject throughout had
been met in a very different manner. (Hear, bear.) The
word conspiracy had been used in a most insulting manner,
which he would never permit to be used to him. (Hear.).
The case resolved itself into four parts—The first was the
cruelty of the manner in which Mrs. Deacle was taken into
custody. The next was the trial of Mr. Dude, for Mrs.
Dade was never brought to trial. He was denied the power
of cross-examining the /images, but was acquitted in the
most honourable manner. The next proceeding was the ac.
don for damages, and the next was mooting the subject in
that house, which had been done with the least possible
severity. Mr. Baring, in his published letter, admitted,
that if the facts proved at the trial were true, be should
have no resourse but to hide his head from society ; and he
said he had evidence to prove that he was at a distance when
the occurrence stated on the trial took place. He would ap-
peal to the House whether any such evidence had been ad-
duced. (Hear. bear.) On the contrary, the attempted de-
fence in that House was merely recrimination ; and the same
was the case that night. He hoped the House would see
the necessity of going into enquiry foe the sake of the cha.
racier of the Magistracy of the country. After the outrage
at Manchester, the present Secretary for the Home Depart-
meat gave his opinion in that House that an enquiry into
the conduct of the Magistrates was indispensably necessary.
The present Attotney.General also brought an enquiry be-
tore the House respecting the conduct of Mr. Emrich, a
Magistrate for Surrey, to which the then Government did not
make any serious objection. Yet the hon. member for Thet•
ford accused Government very strongly for not having
brought forward the enquiry themselves. He thought an
enquiry in the t case was indispensable. The hon.
gentleman mover for the appointmeut of a Select Committee
to et.quire into the conduct of Mr. Bingham Baring in ar-
resting Mr. and Mrs. Deacle.
Mr. LEFEVRE seconded the motion. He thought in-
quiry was indispensable for the vindication of Mr. Bingham
Baring. It was his firm opinion that the handcuffs were
put on Mrs. Deacle without the knowledge of Mr. Bingham
Baring. The verdict of the Jury in the action for damages
fully acquitted the hon. Member for Portsmouth; and by
giving nominal damages against Mr. B. Baring, proved that
the assault on which it was founded was not an aggravated as.
sault. He felt no difficulty in coming to the conclusion of
theirperfect innocence ; but was satisfied there must be an in.
quiry to satisfy the public mind.
Lord ALTHORP said, when he stated on a former night
that he should oppose the motion, he did it with great diffi-
culty ; and what had passed that night had greatly increased
that difficulty; but on the best coosideration he could give
the subject. he could not agree to the appointment of the
Committee; but he stated on his honour, as a gastleman,
that he was acting without communication with the family
of Mr. Baring, and that he really believed he was acting
against their wishes.--(Hear, heat.) Bat when he coosid.
ered what the Committee were to do, he thought he could
not, consistently with his duty, consent to it. Mr. and Mrs.
D. had their choice of bringing a criminal information, or
action for damages.
After the trial, when a petition was presented to that house,
Mr. F. Bring stated, that some of the acts proved against
Mr. B. listing had been done by him • a second petition
was then presented, charging Mr. F. Baring, who, as ap-
peared on the trial. had beets fin from blame. That pro-
ceeding satisfied him that there was no ground for an inquiry.
The investigation could not take place on oath, and would
not give satisfaction to the country ; but be hoped some other
means of investigation would be resorted to. The case of
Manchester was as different from this as could be. Belie,.
tag, at he did, that the investigation would turn out satis-
factory to the parties accused, it was with great regret that
he opposed the motion.
Lord EBR I NOTON said he had a communication from
Mr. B. Bating, in which he strongly urged an inquiry; it
was therefore with great pain be opposed it ; but he thought
those that were not convinced by the clear statement
made in that house by Mr. F. Baring, would not be con-
vinced by a report of • committee of that house ; and if the
committee were appointed, it would lead to constant appil.
cations of the same nature. He was perfectly aware of the
obloquy to which he reposed himself by opposing the com-
mittee ; but he would be unworthy of his name and station,
if he allowed such considerations to divert him from his
duty.
Mr. HUME bad hoped that the Chancellor of the Exche-
quer would have pointed out some way in which the truth
might have been investigated, as a large portico of the

...0.

people were impressed with the belief that injustice hail I -ee
committed. Some of the statements were contradictory. but
they were all open to proof. He had been most unju,ll.
charged with being a conspirator in this case.
presented petition., without offering any opinion on seer
merits of the case, having contented himself with the te-
preaslon of a hope that an inquiry should take place, that 11;
truth might be proved. The petitions that he preseet,g
were sent to him by persons he did not know, and the rem...;,
assigned was, because he had expressed a wish for an in.
quiry. He asked whether the charges contained in the
petition be presented from Mr. and Mrs. Deacle that flight,
were capable of proof, and was answered that they all ware
fully capable of being proved. He thought the Noble Lard
should not oppose the inquiry unless be could pnirt out
some other way of investigating the facts, and ascertaining
the truth. He was confident the people would never he
satisfied without inquiry, and that petitions would multiply.
One fact was not denied, that a woman was handcuffed,
though no resistance was made. He mast support an ice.
quge ATTORNEY.GENERAL was happy to hear the
moderate tone in which his Honourable Friend treated the
subject. The inquiry must turn on the state of the fact.
when they took place, and he could state, that in Novena"
last, when the country wu in a state of the greatest excite-
ment, depositions were sworn—whether true or false could
not then be known—which strongly implicated llr. and
Mrs. Deacle. The Magistrates acted with anxiety ter
the public peace, by ping with the constables to ere.
cute the warrants, and when they went to Mr. Meek,
house, they found arms which might be used for resit.
sea, and if they exceeded the strict necessity of the
ease, their *induct should net be too nicely criticised...-
He hod seen depositions charging Mr. and 3lrs. Deacle atilt
going about at the head of a mob from farm to farm, extort.
ing money, and that Mrs. Deacle directed the distribution of
the money amongst the mob. Mr. Omit only was brought
to trial, and the moment it was found that the charge could
not be proved, the prosecution was given up, and Mr. Dees.
de had a right to the fullest acquittal ; but the Court did not
sit to hear evidence in his favour when the charge was
given up. The Jury before whom the action for damage,
was brought, gave Mr. 1). the damages to which they thought
him entitled ; and now it was proposed to renew that trial be.
fore the worst possible tribunal in the world for such an inves-
tigation, a committee of that house. There was no parallel be.
tween the present case and that of Manchester. And in
the case of Mr. Kenrick, he was a Welch Judge, and could
only be removed by addressee from both houses of parlia•
mcnt to the Crown ; therefore, when grave charges were
made against him, it was necessary it should be inquired
into by the house. Tne impression on the pubbe mind on
this case he thought was subsiding from a calmer coast.
deration of the case ' • and he thought the appointment of a
committee could not be beneficial, as no ground was laid for
taking the matter out of the hands of the court of law. It
would be to encourage attacks on magistrates, and to deprive
the public of the exertions of a good and bold magiatte e for
exertions which had been highly beneficial in restoring the
peace of the country.
Mr. D. W. HARVEY said his mita was wholly free
from any bias on the subject. Ot the presenting pc.
Mims he knew nothing, and was onriaainlious that the
truth should be ascertained. When the subject was first
introduced, the friends of the party accused called on the
house to suspend its judgment till the verdict had been chat.
lenged by an application for a new trial. He supposed the
advice that would be given to them would be not to disturb
die verdict; for he Lust come to the conclusion that the
verdict was a mere nominal verdict of damages. He could
suppose that counsel might say that they were fortunate in
having the trial take place in • county where they had so
many friend*. (Hear, bear.) But there was another
consideration, Mr. and Mrs. Deacle were both charged
with offences, and their witnesses with perjury. (Hear.)
The gallant Colonel, when he gave notice of bringing the
subject before the House, did it without any petition from
Mr. and Mrs. Dock, but from the impulse of his honour-
able mind; and be thought they had nothing to do with Mr.
land Mrs. Deacle ; the real matter at issue was between the
Magistracy of England and the unprotected people of Eng.
land.—(Hear, bear.) He was sorry to bear from the Chan-
cellor of the Exchequer and the Attorney-General that this
was a trifling case; that the Magistrates were to have the
power of plaelrg iron manacles on the people of England,
who, though accused of crimes, were not resisting the law.
—(Hear, bear, hear.) Such conduct was contrary to law.
_(Hear, bar.) If the Home-office had instituted an in.
quiry on oath, and laid the evidence on the table, it
might have satisfied the public; but he thought some in.
matey indispensable.
Mr. BARING said, he had not intended to accuse any
gentleman of improper motives, and hoped he had not said
any thing that could give personal offence. (Hear, hear.)
He knew be could not have an impartial opinion on the
subject; but he learned with great regret from his noble
friend that he should oppose the appointment of a com-
mittee. The magistrates of the country were impeached,
and he thought it of great importance that an inquiry
should take place. The house might judge what was the
state of the country at the time the occurrence took place
when they heard that there were at one time upwards of
400 rioters In Winchester gaol, and that 300 trials had
taken place, and 120 sentences been passed. They made
no accusation against Mr. and Yrs. Deacle; they only
said that there were prima facie grounds for arresting
Mr. and Mrs. Dade, and the table could be covered with
proof of that fact.
Mr. O'CONNELL supported the motion for a Select
Committee; nothing short of a full inquiry would satisfy
the public, and be was convinced that the parties implicated
would come oat of the investigation free of all blame.
After a remark from Mr. F. BARING,
bir R. PEEL was sorry to oppose what he believed to be
the real wish of the parties implicated—namely, for a corn.
mince of investiption ; he opposed that wish because he
believed the potties to be innocent of all the charges brought
against them.
Mr. HUNT regretted that a Select Committee was to be
refused.

Mr. GOULBURN opposed the appointment of a Com-
mittee as inexpedient.
Sir FRANCIS BURDETT said, be had come into the
House impressed with the necessity of voting for so inquiry,
but he confessed that his sentiments on the subject had
been completely altered by the arguments which bad been
brought forward in the course of the discussion; be should,
therefore, oppose the appointment of the Committee.
After a few words from Colonel EVANS in reply, the
House divided, when there appeared
For the motion..
Against it

Majority against eke motion ....... 47
The 'that orden of the day were then disposed of, and
the House adjourned at a Quarter to Three o'clock.

In the village of Burow, near Romig. in the principality
of A nhalt-Bernburg, a servant who had left Berlin two days
before, died of the cholera on the 6th instant, in the house
of his father. On the following day, the father and another
Inmate of the family were taken ill, and though medical as.
sistance was given, they both died within 24 hours.
The Magdeburg paper contains an official contradiction of
the statement, first inserted in the Prussian State Gazelle,
that a sailor bad died of cholera near Parey.
In Bromberg, dove to the 17th instant, 98 eases, 34 re-
coveries, and 62 deaths.
lo Vienna, It appears, from an official notice published in
the Vienna Gazette, that although a number of deaths had
foe some time previously occurred, with symptoms very el.
miler those of the oriental cholera, yet it was only during
the night from the 13th to the 14th, after 3 days of continual
coktrainy weather, that the sickness manifested itself with
such inveteracy that i's presence could no longer be ques-
tioned. The issue of clean bills of health was spin ordered
to be suspended.
In Vienna, Taken ill. Recovered. Died.
