they 'only contributed 121. The amount of the
number of the s:h.lars in the public schools of she
Kildare street Society bad been represented as being
doubly as numerrus as ihey ate in point of fact. It-
would be found that the number of scholars was exactly
in She proportion of seventy to each school, which
clearly proved the whole return of this Society, as to
these numbers, to be a gross and dhgrattful fabricatiOn. The ex-
penses of clerks alone to this Society amounted to ABl,loo,.and the
gratuities to their teachers amounted to 9,5001. whilst they had only
900 schOols, and at most only 52,000 scholars. Thus as they had Was
outirber this year, of both schooli and scholars, he abated move an
amendment, that the sum did net exceed that voted last year,
namely, ,Zotsof.
The Amendment being put,
L'ird MILTON corroborated the calculation of the
Hon. Measber,bnt contended that the principle had been
carried still further in these reports, for it happened tbat the schools
in eath'orthe 30 counties, had been returned at the rate of 70 who-
larsteseoth ellhool, which was a fact that required c >planation.
isrrebUTfERWOR.TH believed this Society had
clone mcwe good for the rising generation in Ireland,
than probably the H ,n. Member, if his life were pro-
bilged much beyond the usual period, ever would or
could do—(A laugh). This Society was composed of
highly respectable patties: its Assistant Secretary, too,
was a Barrister of eminence. As to the reduction of
th,f number of the scholars in these schools, it was easy
when these estimates were about to be broughtin, for
the priests in Ireland to withdraw 50,000 Catholic chil-
dren from off the books within a single week. He:hoped the ca-
lumnies uttered against this Society would 'each Dublin. lie was
satisfied they would be repelled triumphantly. Nothing could
be more imprudent or less deserved than the tone of reproach and
vituperation which had been adopted towards this most respectable
association.
Mr. GOULBURN thought the observations if the
Hon. Member opposite had been fully answered by the
Hon. Member for Dover. He reprobated the charge
anode against the Bishops by the Hon. Member for
Montrose, who, though he bad that paper in his hand
which-Mewed him at a glance the names of the Mem-
bers'of the Society, and would have set him right, if
be chose to be so, still preferred to launch out into his
abuse of the clergy, and state backnied charges, over
aid over again answered in that' Hone, merely because
it suited or tallied with his former tone of treating the
concerns of the clergy. With this information in his
hands, which had stated that no Bishop whatever, no,
nor yet i-Clergyman, eras at:hated on the a:ting Committee, be
had proceeded as usual to throw she. blame of any inaccuracy or
misrepresentation on the subject on the Bishops, and added more-
over that they were thus detected in telling stories—(Hear). The
charge *Of the Assistant Secretary and the. Registrar was only 1231.
and 13Ut: yet in addles these two mom together the Honourable
Member, by some perversion in his calculations, had made them

Mr../Iti ME was stiU of opinion the vote might be postponed
without Inconvenience.
Mr: B Ili GH'f (In ught there was se Much suspicion attaching
itself to these rewrite, that if the Hon. Member for Montrose should
push the( mem" to a division, he, for one, should vote with him. •
Mr. BUT TEILWORTH repeated that this Society was above
suspicion horn the circumstance of the respectability of the parties
managing its interests, as well as from the extensive benefits con-
fessed by all to have been conferred on Ireland through their libe-
rality and humanity.
Mr. FILANKLAND LEWIS felt deeply concetned
that statements should have been made this evening so
derogatory to an Institution so valuable and prai.e.
worthy. The larger numbers of scholars must be taken
as the statement of those on the roll. They avowed they had included
Schools not actually in operation, but which were shortly expected
to be so. As to the integrity of the parties and their veracity and
honour, he trusted the House required no further testimonials than
tliwt which they had already received, and he hoped the House
would not through any distrust withhold a liberal vote to the Society
for carrying un the objects of this Institution, although he believed
it was capable of much improvement.
Mr. HUJE explained, that his observation relative to the
Bishops of Imland, was simply intended to convey his regret, that
they bad codtributed in so small a proportion to an Institution they
affected to believe worthy of general and Parlianientary patronage.
The Vote was then agreed to.

tures, that be was satisfied no lover of'painting would
ever grudge the sum of 90001. to secure them to Ilse
public. The most competent judges in- .the art had
been consulted xis to their value, and they ha.l concurred
in opinion, that they were richly worth, at the least, the
sum now proposed to be voted. The late Mr. Anger
stein, who possessed himself considerable taste, had
been struck with the beauty of the latter, and had been
advised by Gentlemen of well known commence to
decide on such subjects, to give 50001. for the Titian
alone. Under these circumstances, the bargain must
be advantageous to both the lovers of art and the pub-
lic; and as we had been very fortunate in the pictures
already collected, for the put poses of founding a na-
tional gallery, he anticipated the perfect concurrence
of the public in this attempt t,t render that collection'
more compleps by purchasing, from time to time, works
of such undoubted merit and beauty. He had the
pleasure to inform the Committee these beautiful paintings were
already deposited in the National Gallery, fur the purpose of being
'publicly exhibited—(Cheers).—He then moved that a sum not
(weeding 90001. should be granted to the Commissioners for the
)Management of the National Gallery, in order to Purchase these.

the Austrian Observer of the 12th inst. receive] this
morning, confirms the accounts in the riench Papers of
the indisposition of the Emperor of A usrittA, who had
a severe attack of inflammatory fever on the 9th inst.
—The following are copies of the Bulletins issued on
the occasion :

BULLETIN OF THE HEALTH rF HIS MAJESTY THE
EMPEROR.

ig His Majesty the Emperor was suddenly taken ill
in the night of the 9th, and seized with inflammatory'
fever, against which all the necessar y remedies were
immediately employed. Oa the 10th, at six in the
morning, his Majesty was blooded, which afforded him
some relief. The degree of fever, and the other symp-
toms of the disorder, rendered it necessary to take away
some more blood, which was done the same day, and
greatly diminished the I,ymptoms of the disorder, so
that in the night of the 10th, his Majesty had some
quiet sleep, and on the 11th, in the morning, felt him-
self something easier. On account of a local pain,
leeches were applied to-day, by which the pain was
very much lessened. The course of the disorder hitherto
gives every reason to expect that his Majesty will, in a
short time, be wholly recovered.

BECOND BULLETIN 01 THE HEALTH OF TIM EMPEROR.

I, In the night of the 11th the symptoms of the dis-
order and the fever became so much worse that his
Maj •sty was unable to sleep. In the morning of the,
12th the Emperor experienced much relief, but it was
not of long continuance, and towards noon it w•.ts ne-
cessary to bleed him again. His Majesty felt consider-
able relief from this operation, and configures to be
more easy, which increases the hope of his Majesty's

speedy recovery. BARON VON STIFT.
" Vienna, March 12, half-past seven in the evening."
The Brussels Oracle of the •List in,r. was received
this forenoon. In reference to the health of the EMPEROR,
it says—" Private letters front Germany have long since
informed us that the state of the Emperor's health
excited much uneasiness; the German J..lurnals said
nothing of it, and the Vienna Gazettes merely announced
at the beginning of this month, that his Alajesty en-
joyed good health ;. whereas it was well known
-that his
Majesty was very ill when he left Presburgh:'

This forenoon we received Brussels Papers to the 22d
instant. They notice as extraordinary that the mails
from France, England, and Germany, which arrived in
that city on the 20th instant, 41 brought three pieces of
intelligence of the greatest importance. The first is the
death of John VI. King of Portugal t the second, the
serious indispos;tion of his Majesty, the King of Eng-
-I.lird ; and the third, the no less serious illness of his
Majesty, the Emperor of Austria:' The following
ate extracts
BRUSSELS, ithatem 18.

Mercantile letters front Frankfort, received in this
city speak in the following terms:

" All the accounts which we receive from the fron-
tiers of Russia agree in stating that manyarrests still
continue to be made in different provinces of the Empire.
At St. Petersburg!) and Moscow, and other great cities,
everything is tranquil ; but it is observed that the calm
is glocmy, which causes some uneasiness. Meantime
the investigation of the great .conspiracy is proceeding
with activity, and important discoveries appear to-have
been made. We need scarcely add, that these circum-
stances are a greattindrance to mercantile transactions."

The French Papers of Tuesday curtain account.
from Madrid to the 10th inst. They state that the
papers seized on BAZAR and his associates, contain the
'plan of the Revolutionists, which was to establish a
Regency or Directory, composed of ROMERO ALPE/ENT;
and other violent Jacobins. Models of lists of pro-
scription are said to have been drawn up, and the
estates of the Clergy and of the Nobility were to be
confiscated, for the two-fold purpose of remedying the
penury of the finances, and of destroying classes incom-
patible with the new order of things. Several of
the revolutionists of the band of BAZAN have not yet
been shot. They are reported to have made important
disclosures, which implicate in their plot the name of
MINA, and of a person of consequence.
