ASIVCIATIONIC SUPIMUSION BILL
The House proceeded to the Order of the pay on the Anode.
dons Suppression Dill.—On the manila° that the Sill be read a
third time,
General GASCOYNE rose to say. that he would
avail himself no this opportunity to put a question t • the
Right Hon. Secretary tot the Horne Depar mot. He
thought, if he recollected right, that the Right Hoe.
Gentleman had, in proposing this measure. stated that
there were dangers threatened to the sta e, ',Lich were
peculiarly known to him el from his official sou bon.
and not to the public This had create I a strong sm.
pression both in and out of the Hon-e. The Right
Hon. Gentleman had entered into a statement which
did not appear to him (Genital Gascosse) sufficient
grounds for what he haJ iofe•r.tl in his speech. It
had appeared horn that statement that tumult and
dissatisfaction ; rev ailed in Ireland; bet all this had
been Fs: ev iously bet to the country ibrotigh the medium
of the j aurnals of the day. Ile now . rose for the
purpose of asking if this statement was all they were
to have Uwe. rsal dissppoilitment had been cieated
by it, and the impression was that there was mire to
be explained. He wished to know it the Right Mit.
Secretary had any information to give? The publte
mind was distracted by a thousand reports in cis cola.
tine, some so really ridiculous—(Nears and a laugh)—.
that it was impossible to refer to them seriously. It
was repotted that the army could not be depended
upon—a story which lie would call a libel upon the
discipline of tl:e army—(Hear. hear)—but which he had
heard from at least twenty Members of that Muse—.
He had been told that foreign PJWi•IS had inierleted foe
the Irish Catlirl cs, and that the America's' h .41 it?.
plied them secretly with arms and ammunition—
(Laughter). He m ritioned those things to show the
(oily and absnrdity of the rumours that were cutient,
and he put this crestion merely that th, y might be
dissipated. • There was another point to which hr would
take the opportunity of alluding. There was an im-
pression among individuals, both in and out of that
Hoy e, that the Right Hon. Secretary would not have
assented to the measure unless he had known some.
thing which the ;abbe were not at present permitted to
know. He (General Gascoyee) had heard all the Right
Hon. Gentleman's speeches, and he was rather incl•ntd
to believe that he had explained all he bad to explain.
He wished, however, to be satisfied whether no further
danger existed than that which had been stated, and
whether that alone had led to the proposing of the two
measures that immediately followed each other in the
Speech frUm the Throne? He would certainly say that
the statement which had accompanied the preliminary
moisure was not sufficient for the support of the o her;
and it there was Scatty 'nothing more to state, it sould
be satisfactory for persons both in and out of that House
to have an assurance-on the subject. •
Mr. Secretary PEEL said that the ground on which
his gallant Friend had put his question t-s him was, that
be had heard not less than a thousand ridiculous rot
ports, and he proceeded to ask a contradiction to some
of these reports to give satisfaction to himself and others.
He would protest against the principle of the question,
for if he were liable to be called upon to contradict
some extravagant and ridiculous report., he might be
called upon to contradict all. He admitted that he
had said on a • former evening that an Hon. Friend
had not access to the mass of inlorinatirm posited in
upon him officially; and on another evening he had
given a specimen of the corrrespondence routed into
the Home Office. When his gallant Ft iend talked
of the interference of Foreign Powers, be could say
that nothing had' fallen from him to sanction such
reports; but lie thought that he did state it as the
moist why. if the settlement of the question was um.
avoidable, it should be attempted no«, as there never
was a period when England could undertake it with
greater honour and safety; for dating the last lour
'hundred years she hid never stood on more amicable
relations with foreign Powers. He would again say
that, in that respect, there was nothing to prevent' the
House from taking the question into Consideratiou
with ilso greatest honour and sa'ety ; but the danger
err which he had referred existed in the condition of so.

illy of the Protest at intete-ts in that country. His
Gall.nt Friend had said that he was disappoin:ed that
Ireland wa's not shciwn to be in as bad a state as he h id
Moon to apprehend. He (Mr. Peel) had attempted tit
Show its distracted and dangerous state, and, although
he had not described it as being such that physical'
force could not immediately suppress any turbulence
that might result from it, yet he had shown that it
would be mote advantageous to aim at an adjustment
(than to go on upon the system of the last sixteen years.
He did n• t know what other answer could be required.
As to the danger of the House legislating ender the in...
thence of fe..r, there was none; but he ,confessed the
other fear, arising from the continuance. of party alai.
Bosky. the evil of a divided Parliament, and. %Wreak
the impossibility of carrying on the administration of
criminal justice it; Ireland, it it was meant that Trial by
Jury should continue to form a patt of the legal insti-
tutions of that country. These were reasons for the
apprehension of danger, such as the Legislature, anxious
fat the peace and prosperity of the empire, might well
take into consideration without being apprehensive of
say other.
Mr. G. MOORE said that it appeared, from 'bat
fed been Mated by the Right Hon. Gentleman, that there was as
&eget to be Maticipated from our foreign relations, nor from VW
