TITHES IN IRELAND.

Sir H. PARNELL rose to make his promised,
motion relative to Tithes in Ireland. It was acknow-
ledged on all hands, that the Bill which had been
brought in'three years ago to enable Ecclesiastical
persons in Ireland to make leases of Tithes, was a
very advantageous measure, and he wished it to be
revived. The Hon. Baronet, after entering into a
detail of the inconveniences arising from the existing
cistern in Ireland, said his intention was, that the
Bill which he intended to introduce should be read
a first time and printed, in order to give Members
an opportunity of discussing the subject next Session.
.He then moved for leave to bring in a Bill to amend
the existing mode of Letting Leases and of
Collect-
ing Tithes in Ireland.
Sir JOHN NEWPORT seconded the motion.

Lord CASTLEREA-GH did not abject to the Bill
being printed, but he 'wished it to be understood as
not affecting a commutation of Tithes.
Mr. M. FITZGZILALD and Mr. LOCKHAZT supported the motion.
Mr. C. GRANT supported the Bill, reserving to himself to
suggest such alterations as he might think expedient.
' Mr. NEWMAN spoke in favour of the Bill, and Sir H. PAistrnt
shortly replied, after which leave was granted to bring in the Bill.

COMMITTig OF SUPPLY.

On the motion of the Ciliti•lCELLOit of the Excess
oust; the House resolved itself into a Committee of
Supply.
Lord CASTLEREAGH said he would shortly
state the grounds of the • motion he now intended to
bring fiirward. On the death of the Queen there
was effected a general reduction of £lBO,OOO, saving
a provision of £lB,OOO for her Majesty's servants.—
On the-demise of his late Majesty, a saving arose of
£160,000. Against this, however, as he had stated on
a former occasion, there was a set-off of £21,000 as a
provision for the household servants. The provision
made in former cases for the servants of former Queens
was much greater than in the instance of her late Ma.
jesty. The reason of that was, that no provision what-
eier was intended to be made for the State Officers of
her Majesty. The menial servants were alone in-
tended to he provided for. Government thought it
their duty to follow this principle under the pre-
sent circumstances of the country—(Near, hear).—
With respect to his Majesty's servants, these were of
far different description; which he intended to pro-
pose ; the first for a sum of 9000 and odd hundred
pounds provision for the servants who were in the
immediate employment of the late King at the time
of his decease; 4000 and odd hundred pounds for those
servants who hoe been in his Majesty s family at the
breaking up of the Windsor Establishment about a
year ago, and who had been then thrown upon his
Majesty's Privy Purse, and ten thousand pounds fat
a class of clainiants, who had received provision out
of his Majesty's Yrivy Purse, and who for loug and
faithful services were objects of his grace and fa-
vour—of those his Majesty had himself placed on the
Privy Purse claims to the amount of £tsooo. He
would only say, that the same principle of economy
pursuedowith respect to her Majesty, was adopted
with respect to the servants of the late King.. No
State Officers, none but menials were to receive any
provision. It was by no-means the intention of Go-
vernment to submit the claims of all those who had
received pensions from his Majesty, but those per-
sons alone of the description he bad already men-
tioned. There was another class of persons, namely,
servants who had been but a short time in the Royal
Service ; to those it was intended to give one year
wages.
Mr. BANKES opposed the Grant as intendint
put a permanent burthen on the country. •
Mr. HUME observed, that although the Ncible
Lord professed to proceed in this cases upon the pre,
cedent of the provision made in 1819 for the Queen's
servants, there war this remarkable discrepancy, that
in the -precedent quoted the servants were ehly al-
lowed about three-fourths of their salary, while, in
the present case, it was proposed to grant the ser-
vants of his late Majesty the whole of their salary.—
'there was also another discrepancy, that while in the
grant of 1819 those servants only who had served
eight years were provided for, those who had only
been one year in the King's wete to have
their whole salary for life. The Ho;ourabbrillitab
bee quoted several instances do sustain biOaistletit
and after animadverting upon the prodigality of I),*
*sisters, in. applying ,to the public purse for these
grants, instead ofroviding for them from the Pen-
.sion Lists of England, Ireland,`nnd Scotland, -ex-
prelsed his intention mania a unseen upon theattb-
ject; with a view-to mitee sae psopoted alkwaaos
w the goatdard of the pr at Obidecl to by *
Noble Lord.
Mr. W. SMITH thought Oldie who Wire called
...theereat giacers of State, and whim ate-cowsidered

~~:

•
. as amt or half menial servants, should have no pe-
cuniary allowance whatever, and that as they deemed
it an boomer and dignity to serve the Crown in this
capacity, they should do it without any salary, money
certainly contributing to advance the dignity of thuir
station.. Here the Hon. Gentleman tea a review of
the Pensions granted from the Privy Purse of the
-late King, expressing his astonishment to find, that
while only £4OO a-year were allowed to the justly-
celebrated Sir William Herichell, above EV/Oa:yeas
WAS granted to several musicians. He was also sur-
prised' to hear, that the Pension granted by his late
Majesty to that distinguished painter Mr. Weit was
withdrawn some time before the demise of the Crown,
and at a time when he understood that great artist
was much in want of money.
The-CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER yin-
dicated the arrangement proposed, stating that every
practicable reduction was made, and that this provi-
sion arose out of the uncommon circumstance of two
Royal Households having existed at the same peiiod.
It was known that the Prince Regent's establishment
was complete long before' the death of the late King,
and that therefore the servants of his Majesty. could
not, as was the case heretofore, be transferred to his

successor. Hence the necesility of making the pre-
sent appeal to the liberality of Parliament. flut.that
appeal .referring to met itoriou s servants, would not,
he thought, be made in vain. He instanced particu-
larly the merit of the Pages, who had closely attended
his Majesty throughout his lamented illness, without
having ever divulged any of thCse anecdotes which
were too often propagated on such melancholy occa-
sions—Wain hear !)--W a regard to Mr. West, the
fact was, that his salary, which
.was not- paid horn
the Privy Purse, but from the Lord Chamberlain's
Department, for taking care of his Ylajesty'syictures,
was never withdrawn front that eminent artist.
Mr. WILLIAMS enforced Mr. Hume's.xtiew of
theliroposed grants, thinking that, according to the
precedent referred to by the Noble Lord, they ought
to be reduced at least one-fifth.
Mr. HUSKISSON stated, that according to the
recommendation of a Committee upon the subject,
there was a compensation granted to the Queen's
servants in lieu of perquisites, in addition to the vote
_ _ _ _

. .
alluded to by the Honourable Member for Aberdeen,
and therefore that Honourable Member's comparison
was erroneous. • With regard to Mr. West, he was
enabled to say, that not only the allowance from the
Lord Chamberlain's Department was continued to
that illustrious artist to the end of his life, bat to
add, that to his knowledge Mr. West received one
thousand pounds a-year from the privy purse of his
Majesty, with a view to encourage the Arts, and tliat
the whole of the sum thus granted. >ry his Majesty,
whose patronage of the Arts was proverbial, amount-
ed to no less than £40,000.
Mr. W SMITH expressed himself peculiarly glad
to learn that he was misinformed with respecNo the
treatment of Mr. West, adding, that he never doubted
the late King's munificence towards that eminent in-
dividual, or towards the Fine Arts in general.
Mr. HUME moved-an Amendment, that instead

of £9,000, the sum of £7,600 should be voted for
the purpose referred to, but this Amendment was
negatived.
Certain sums were re-voted which were granted
for the use of the King's Houiehold ; 1:60,000 for the
*use of the Veteran Battalions in Great Britain, and .
£20,000 for the Veteran Battalions in Ireland, were
' also voted on the motion of Lord PaLsimisrori.
The House resumed, and the Report was ordered
to be brought up to-morrow. "
THE QUEEN.
Lord CASTLEREAGH moved for the appoint-
ment of a Committee to exatnine the Journals of the
House of Lords, in order to ascertain whether any,
and what proceedings had taken plate in that House
with respect to her Majesty, rind to report their *pinion
thereupon to the House.—The motion was agreed
to, and the Committee was appointed accordingly.
The Noble Lord then said,. that he bad submitted
this motion with the view which Sit implied ; and if,
from the Report of the Committee, it should appear
that the other House had instituted any proceeding; .
he should then consider whether, pending that pro-
ceeding, the notice of a motion which he had given
for to-morrow should not be dropped ; and also whe-
ther he should not to-morrow move the reading.. of *
the Order for taking his Majesty's Message into con-
sideration on Friday, with a .view of moving the.
postponement of.that Order until sortie future day.--
This postponement he should • feel to be proper, in
order that the House might wait the result of. the pro,
ceedings in the House of• Lords, still reserving to itself
the right of taking his Majesty's Message into consi-.
deration, if that should be thought aecessar.y. But
until the result of the proceedings of the Lords should
be made known, he submitted that it would be Zery
inconvenient for that. House to adopt any measure. .
Sir JOHN. NEWPORT asked, whether it was the
intention of the Noble Lord to keep the order. which
was fired for Friday in abeyance, until the Lou*
should pr Inouncetheir decision upon. the subject ?."
Observing, that if such were the Noble Lord's inten-
tion, it would be a eery uncommon ,course pf pro-
ceeding —(1-tear). .
Lord 'CASTLEREAGH observed, that the pro..

-Sir M. W. RIDLEY expressed his hope that the

POST OPTICS EXPRESSES.
Ina Couunittte upon the Post-Once Act, a Resolution was
passed, authorising the Postmaster-General to charge double
postage in certain cases, which the Chancellor of the Rube-
quer, who nude the motion, explained to mesa when letters
Were taken by express. For the convenience of trade, and the
public in general, be observed that's system of conveying letters
by express was about to be established. The it experiment
was to be made from London to Manchester, and if found to
answer, it was proposed to extend this mode of conveyance to
cshutgo; and Edinburgh, but as it was calculated that the ex•
slue was at the outset likely to be considerable, the Resolu-
tion for an additional charge for postage was deemed necessary.
The Resolution was agreed to, _
The other Orders of the Day were disposed of, and the House
adjourned at Half-past Two o'Clock.

Last night Lord LIVERPOOL brought in his Bill of
Degradation and Divorce, of the QUM. It is founded
chiefly upon one charge, but that one a hideous act
of alleged criminality ! We shall not twice soil our
columns in the same day, by repeating it here, but
content ourselves with referring to the Bill itself, of
which we have given a copy. in our Parliamentary
Report. All the other charges become moonshine,
when compared with this act; nor will the Public
give to them the weight of a feather, if hei
JESTY.S accusers shall fail in establishing the principal
Charge.—The Bill extends not only to the degradation
of her MAJESTY from the style, title, and preroga•
tives of Queen Consort, but to a divorce c vinculo
suatrituonii ; and the Lords are to be the Prosecutors,
Judges, and Legislators in the cause !

I:rea, ions to Elie introduction of this Bill, some dis-
cussion took place on a Petition presented by Lord
DAC fie from her NIAJESTY, stating, that she had been
informed of the Charges made against her, by the Re-
port of the Secret Committee of the House of Lords,
and praying to be heard by Counsel, her MAJESTY
having weighty matters to urge which might have a
considerable influence with regard to her future de:.
fence. The prayer of this Petition wits rejected, on
the ground that there was no measure 'against ber
MAJESTY before the House, and therefore her Coun-
sel could not be allowed to be heard.

We subjoin some interesting extracts on this topic,
from the Morning Papers of this day :

• /EOM THE TIMES.

44 Theirrocettlinp against the Queen have now reached their
summit. They have risen to that point which her ads clerks
had long contemplated with hopeless aspiragions, but of which
they hart/ly dared openly to confess their desire. Under the title
of a Bill•of Pains and Penalties, a Ihtoace Btu. was last night
brought into the Upper house. This is certainly more than the
country was as yet prepared to expect ; and if the attempt is not
nipped in the imd by the 'firmness and vittse of the House of
Lords, to which the Bill is offered, we suspect that our pr-ophecy
will not long want cosfirmation—that the troubles of the coun-
try were but just beginning. The preamble to this Bill will be
read with deep attention, and the most acute surprise. It re.
laws certain offences of the Qintex (on which we shall speak
hereafter), and then concludes with the proposition that the mar-
riage subsisting between hes and her husband should be dis-
solved : as if all that were necessary to invalidate the Most
heron of all human engagements were the misconduct of one
party. We must 'generalize our argument in order to avoid
giving offence. The law of divorce, as it exists in this Christian
count:), is founded on the Word of GOD, and the Law of the
Gospel. But the Law of the Gospel makes no allowance for
rank or station—affords no indulgence, De exemptions, no pri.

alleges : neither, therefore, can the law of divorce.
" Now the law of divorce separates, upon substantial parr,
a pure man from an impure woman ; but it dors not allow, nor
ever has allowed, nor ever can allow, of the separation of two
impure people at the option of either. We do not impute to his
Naricrer an impure life, either during hi. cohabitation with the
Wars or since she quitted him; but we do aver, that a Bill of
Divorce, founded upon the simple misconduct of one party—the
conduct of the other not being allowed to be examined or in-
quired into—is a violation of the law of Gon, as it is modified
and applied to the sacred marriage rite. Be the Quzzs'a.con.
duct what it may, his MAJFACT must show an unimpeachable
gee to relief, or must allOw that title to be scrutinized before
relief can be iliforded him ; or otherwi3e there is an end Unlace
of all the sacred solemnity of the marriage contract: fey ill
examples do not mount from the humble to the great, but tre..
send from people in elevated stations to the crowd.
" A Bill of Pains and Penalties is one thing, even suppose
such a Bill had imprisoned the Auras for life, or had banished
her from the kingdom ; but a divorce, a dissolution of the nup-
sly; bond, is a measure of a totally different nature—it does not
owl guilt; it sets bale from a disastrous obligation. Lot it.
be recollected, that the man, as well as the woman segue* an
his knees, before the altar of Goo, that, forsaking all others,
he will keep himself only to his wife, so long as they both shall
tee: We do not say that the Kum has not dose this; but it
i; obvious that the fulfilment of his obligation is a necessary
and unalienable condition of the dissolution of the marriage;
and that it is impious to dissolve the marriage without allowing
of what is improperly called recrimination, but which is really
only a controverting of the plaintiff's claim to relief.

their parole evidence with their deposition."

YOM THE BRITISH PRESS.

" Previous to the introduction of the-Dill yesterday evening,
Lord Dicer presented a Petition from the Queer, desiring that
her Counsel might be immediately heard at the Bar, for the pur-
pose, even in this early stage of the proceeding, of suggesting
some circumstances, which, as her MAJZSTY was advised, were
modal towards her future defence. • This humble request was,
hokever, refused, because, forsooth, her Masssrr must, as their
Lord,hips held, be presumed to be profoundly igr.orant of a Re-
port of a Committee, which was known to the whole Metro-
polis, and to a considerable part of England, and the fame of
which is at this moment 'reading iti way as rapidly over the
surface of the globe, in every direction, as it is possible for horses
and ships to convey it. It was even declared, that if the Quasx
could be supposed to be apprised of the conttutstsf that Report,
i% would be nothing short of a au-render of the whole constitu-
tion of l'arliamcnt!—.-This observation was actually cheered ivy
the Llowse.

0 Is it not extraordistacy that men who are in other matters
endowed with good sense and discretion, should so grossly
violate every principle of ordinary understanding when they
come to deal with forms and fictions? It is a principle of law
with which their Lordships are, no doubt, familiar, that no
fiction is ever admitted its practice, except for the furtherance
of justice ; and yet, upon a point where the honour of a guitar:,
and still more where the judicial character of the country is
concerned, the House of Lords would, rather adhere to an
absurd fiction, nan:ely, that the Public know nothing of What
passes in their Lordships' House. than grant a slight indulgence
to a person accused, and that person their suppliant Quern.
" With rt grid to this fiction, which presumes the Ignonusee,
of the Public, and which, indeed, prevails in both nooses of
Parliament, we may be permitted to remark, that it is of toss
paratively modern date, and is inconsistent with a mud mete
important principle of our common law, which presumes that
every man in the State is acquainted with the Acts of the .Legis-
lature on the very instant of their being passed,, In the early
periods of our history, Parliament was holden in a very public
manner, as Courts of Justice now are, and the people were not
only admitted, so far as couvenience allowed, hut even req
to be present at the enactment of the laws.
The ntaxhn'of the law that ignorantia kgis no* mutat, was
in those days perfectly equitable, for nut only were Ow laws
made in the presence of the People, but it was the duty of the
Sheriffs of Counties in the:: Cotuu , and even we believe of the
Clergy in their Churches, to read the laws to the pastititude.—
But, if the doors of Parliament were now literally closed against
the Public, and that nothing transpires/ of what was passing
within them until the result of the deliberations was sent to the
office of the King's Primer in the shape of an Act of Parliament,
the Public might well plead ignorance of the laws.
The Qt. r.as in particular has a right to complain of the
fiction, for, in consequence of the publicity of the Report, her
character has been assailed ; yet, when she offers to meet the
allegations, she is told that she must be presumed to be ignorant
of a charge which has become the topic of universal conversa-
tion, and is bandied about every tavern and coffer-house in
the Metropolis !"

FROM THE MORNING GERALD.

"It is all of Degradation and Divorce—is fearful formula
of punishment for a woman and a Queen to encounter—over

which we sincerely hope she may obtain the only legitimate tri-
ampb—thc triumph of established innocence."
" Upon the issue'of this great trial, the fortunes, the harmer,
and all but the lives of the adverse parttes, viz. of the Quern
and t • present Ministers, may be sald.to depend. The Qum
certainly meets the investigation with unshaken and andtrinking
nerve."

THOM THE MORNING TOOT.

C 4 The 818 founded on the Report of the Lords' Committee
was last night brought in by the Earl of Livsarecn. It is of that
nature which the Report demanded, and, it win rejoice every
well-regulated mind to observe, just, without being vindictive...-
Founded on a preamble, which man be proved (or there Js no
foundation for any deprivation of rights and honours), the mea-
sure goes not one step farther than absolute necessity require.,
at the result and consequence of its truth. For no one will deny
that if adultery has been commhted, the lent pewit, that could
attach to the crime must-be degradation from the. rank of (low,
and the forfeiture of an the rights and intmunides of that exalted
condition. There is no threat of punishment, no angry passion
sought to be ,gratified. The Bill simply says, you are accused
of having brought shame and disgrace upon the British Crows—
the fans being established, your sentence b, &worm from that
Regal State which you have abused, and deprivation of those
privileges of which you have shewn yourself to be unwortliy.".

EXTRACT FROM THE GAZETTE OF JUNE. 23 :
" VENICE, JUNE 18.—Letters worthy of credit,
dated the 16th instant; which arrived at Venice from
Scutari, bring the intelligence that the Pacha of Scu-
taxi set off on the Sc! instant from that place, at the
head of 20,000 men, 5,000 of whom are cavalry, and
with a large train of artillery; taking the road of Jan-
nina, to go and fight against Ali Pacha, in conformity
to the orders received from the Sublime Porte. To
facilitate his military enterprise, he. has sent several
vessels, loaded with provisions, ammunition, and war-
like stores, to the port of Durazr.o:

ANOTHER EXTRACT PROM THE ABOVE GAZETTE.
ROM it JUNE 17, 1820.—Letters from the Epirus,
received in Ancona by sundry merchants, state, that
the troops of the Grand Seignior having entered Sa-
lona (the ancient Arephissa), belonging to the Go-
vernment of the famous Pacha of Jannina, they esta-
blished a numerous garrison there, and hoisted the'
standard of Mahomet.

" As soon as this news reached Ali Pacha, he
marched off with powerful forces towards that city,.
which Re entered in the night-time by snrprize, to
,the great terror of the garrison and of the inhabi-
