HOUSE OF LORDS, JUNE 5.
MESSAGE FROM THE COMMONS. • .
Sir A. GRAWT, and other Members, brought up the Excise Li-
censes Bill. the Bishop of Winchester's Estate 13111, the Covent
Garden Market Improvement Bill. and several other private Bills,
all of which were subsequently read a first time.
The Earl of ELDON presented a Petition from Cheltenham,
against any tuttber concession to the Roman Catholics.
The Earl of ELDON bilged to inquire of the Noble Marquis
what course he intended to pursue with respect to the subject of
discussion which stood for Monday next ?
The Marquis df LA,NSDOWN said, that he should feel it his
duty to state his reasons why the House should concur in the Re-
solution which bad been communicated to them by the other House
of Parliament. If the House should agree with him, he did not
intend to follow up the Resolution any further than to move that it
be communicated to the Commons.
Lord KING had a Petition to present from a body of Unita-
rians in favour of the Catholic Claims. Although he saw a Noble
and Learned Earl opposite, he should not propose to receive this
Petition with three cheers, but be trusted the Noble and Learned
Earl, adverse as be was to the Unitarians, would not doubt their
right to petition that House. He lamented that the Noble Earl
did not occupy the place he had filled so long, and was no linger,
adorned by utose flowing curls which had for so many years falleni
so gene fully from his shoulders; for under the present military
government, lie was entitled to all honour, as he wee eminently
qualified to give zest to the enjoyments of the mess, by those effu-
sjous of merriment which had somewhere hevn called venerable
buffooneries. The Petition he had to present was from the Cid-
tari,ns of Ashton, in Staffordshire, and prayed fur equal civil privt.
lege. to the professors of all religiens.
The Earl of ELDON s.tid, that tin men was less likely than
himself to object to a Petition merely because it proceeded from
Unitailam. This would he peculiarly inconsistent in him, who
had, the other day, presented a. Petition from persons of this class,
the prayer of which was the reverse of that now in the hands of the
Noble Lnrd. The Noble Lord might hear, perhaps. with satis•
faction, what he had now to state, that he had disqualified himself
from ever again filling that seat to which he had alluded, under any
Government, whether civil or military. With respect to the cheers
of which the Noble Lord had spoken, it would be well if the Noble
Lord would inquire before be gave implicit credit to all that ap-
peared in the newspapers. An idea had gone abroad that he had
interfered in the lormatiitif of the present Administration. This
idea was erroneous. The Noble Lord had himself interfered fully
as much as lie had. And he (Leval Eldon) would take this oppor-
tunity of declaring, that no part had ever been taken by him, either
in the dissolutions of Ministers or the formation of new Adminis-
trations. He wished not to meddle in such met:ere—he was here
for the purpose alone of doing his duty to his country—he was
here alone to fulfil the solemn pledge by which he was bound to
that country, and he would, therefore, repei with indignation and
contempt those taunts which had been thrown out in language that
had tallest from the Noble Lord opposite—(Repeated cries of hew
from all sides of the House). Though his lite had been a long one,
yet be thanked Goo that he had never disgraced the character which
that life had supported. He had sot disgraced it himself, and he
would never sit by and allow it to be disgraced by any other man.
The Petition was then read, and ordered to lie upon the table.
Lord ROLI.E presented a Petition Irons Ilfracombe, in the
County of Devon, against any further concession to the Roman
Catholics.
- Lord HOLLAND presented Petitions in favour of Emancipso.
don from Rochdale, Fulkstone, Nottingham, Dorchester, Chipping
Norton, and several other places.
The Duke of MONTROSE presented a Petition from the Ana
elate Congregation of Burghers of Glasgow, against any farther
Concession to the Roman Catholics.
The Earl of ELDON preseuted a Petition from the Planters
resident in the City of Edinburgh and its vicinity, praying for a
Parliamentary Commission to inquire into the state of the Slaves I
ha the West Indies, and for the protection of West India property.
scorcu SETTLEMENT SILL
The Earl of ROSEBERRY moved the second reading of this
Bill. He described it as a measure of the utmost importance, ne-
cessary to check the stream of emigration which now set in so
'wanly as to threaten to reduce the labouring classes of Scotland
ip the same level of misery as those of Ireland.
Lord MELVILLE telt himself under the necessity of opposing
the further progress of this Bill. It was the first attempt, so far
as he was aware. to make a legal distinction between the natives of
one part of the United Kingdom and another. He considered it
I harsh to make one law of settlement for the natives of Scotland,
and another for the natives of Ireland. This was at variance with
• the principles of the Union. He bad a (either objection also, which
was, that the measure was impracticable. Nobody knew better
than the Noble Earl that the parochial registers of Scotland were
very defective, and it would be a matter of extreme difficulty foe a
Scotch pauper to prove the place of his nativity. He should, for
these reasons, move as an amendment, that the Bill be read a se-
gued time that day tbrie months.
The Earl of LIMERICK supported, the Amendment. Whet
Would be said if it were now proposed, as it had once been pro-
peoad, to exclude Scetchnaen irons this part of the United King-
dom ? " For Heaven's sake," it was once the fashion to ay," let
us keep out the Scotch." That day was past, and it was a little
surprising, in the present age of conciliation and liberality, to see
an attempt made to go back at one step five or six hundred years. I
The master manafacturers of Great Britain were not able to pat
such wages to their workmen as would satisfy Englishmen or
SeOtchmen, and they were compelled to invite over Irish labourers
to enable them to rule their own refractory countrymen. '
The Earl of ROSEBERRY explained. There was nothing in
the Bill offensive to the Irish. They and the English were put
upon an equal footing.
The Earl of H ADDINGTON supported the Bill, and con-
tended that there ought to be a legal provision for the Poor in Ire-
land, at least for such as were aged and infirm. He wished the
House to go into a Committee upon the Bill.
The F.arl of Ltuarecx explained.
The Earl of ROSSLYN made a few observations in opposition
to the Bill.
Lord BF.LHAVEN wished the Bill to be committed, that they
might see if it were possible to render it agreeable to all parties.—
Some measure was evidently recessery.
The Earl of DARNLEY opposed the Bill. Emigration to
England was a means of relieving the wretchedness of the Irish
population.
The Earl of ROSEBERRY expressed his hope that the Noble
Earl (Melville), would not resist the Bill in its present stage.
Lord Viscount MELVILLE would not object to she further
progress of the Bill, with an understanding that the natives of All
the three United Kingdoms were to be put upon an equal footing.
After a few words from the Earl of LIMBIUCC and the Earl of
Ros RRRRRR tbe Bill was read a second time, and ordered to be
committed on Wednesday nest.'
On the motion of the Duke of Wm-mime, the Stamp Allow-
ances Bill was read a second time, and ordered to he committed
to-morrow.
The Earl of ELDON requested the Noble Earl (Malmesbury)
to po.pohe the bringing up of the Report of the Lunatic Asylum
Bill. as he bad some amendments to propose.
The Earl of MALMESBURY would agree to this, front the
high respect he entertained to the Noble and Learned Earl.—The
Report was ordered to be received on Wednesday nest.
On the motion of the Earl of Meratassomr, the /louse resolved
itself into a Committee upon the County Lunatics Asylum Bill.
The Earl of MALMESBURY proposed his amendments, one
for the appointment of a Chaplain in each Asyium, and the other
to render all County Asylums subject to the visitation of Commis-
sioners; to be appointed by the Secretary of State of the Home
Departient.
The House then resumed, and the Report was ordered to be
received,on Wednesday next.
The Earl of SHAFTESBURY moved a Standing Order, that
no private Bill should be committed vine ten days after the second
reading.
The Bills before the House vier* taw aided in their respective
stages.
The Housethen adjourned at Harr-re.se Sce o'Ceoge.

PROM THE GAZETTE DR PRANCE, JUNE 4.
VIENNA, May 25.
Letters horn Transylvania say, that many Moldavian,
Wallachian, and Turkish families are endeavOuring, on
the approach of the Russians, to retire into the Austrian
territory. Prince Ghika, who was supposed to have
been taken'pristmer by the Russians, has arrived with a
aumerons suite at Cronstadt, in Transylvania. His
eldest son, who was at Constantinople, appears to have
succeeded in escaping, for the purpose of joining his
family. It was believed at Bucharest that Count Pahlen—,
Civil Governor of the Principalities, was going to leave
Jassy, and to €a the seat at his administration at Bu-
charest; end that the Emperor Nicholas would also
come to that place.
The sale of manufactured goods, which was not con-
siderable in those provinces, has increased a good deal
sinct the entrance of the Russians, and gives employ-
mint to a good number of houses at Hermanstadt,
Cronstadt, Chotym,, Bucharest, and Jassy. Corn is
rising in Transylvania, and in the Bannat. The letters,
bowever,.say thst this rise is the effects of speculation
rather than of a real demand, though the stock in hand
is, however, not great. An order is :":id to have been
published at Bucharest, prohibiting all strangers from
offering to make contracts for the RussiarlaftilY, which
has disappointed many speculators.
It was said at Bucharest, that a considerable corps of
Russian infantry had marched towards Giurgevo, and
it is affirmed, that in the night of the 11th a cannonade
was heard in that direction. General Geismar, who
disarmed the rebels at Sr. Petersburgh in 1825,• is ap-
pointed Military Governor at Bucharest.
PARIS, Jona 5.
In Germany, as well as France, doubts have been
fired of the authenticity of the bulletin of the Russian
army, which we had copied from an Austrian Gazette.
One of our subscribers, who appears to be well informed,
both with respect to things and persons, has addressed
to us on this subject several observations, which appear
to ns very just, and of which the following ate the most
remarkable, to say nothing of the sally of so considerable
a garrison, of which a great part consisted tf cavalry,
and which does not ill resemhlo the regiment on horse-
back commanded by the Marquis de Mascarille on
board the Maltese gallies. Mention is made of a Lieu-
tenant General Doctoroff, who was a very distinguished
officer of the Russian army, but he died at least ten
rears ago, not with the rank of Lieutenant General,
but of General in Chief, which is often equivalent to
that of Marshal of France.
The same remark applies to General Ouvaroff, who'
also died some years ago. We do not know any Lieut.-
Omer al of the name of Yernodoff. He who commanded
in Georgia was General in Chief, and besides, be is out
IA employment. On the other hand, it must appear very
surprising that the Turks should have collected such a
considerable force on the Danube, when it is known that
Vey have hardly been able to assemble something like
an army in the environs of Adrtrnople.
We are besides informed that in me course of this war
we shall have to be upon our guard against apocryphal
news and documents. We, who have so often denounced
the bad faith and impudence of the journals, shall not
be astonished at it.
The accounts from the lonian Islands and the Merea
announce Ye continuation of the blockade of the ports
of the Mom. by the ves,els of the three Powers and by
the Greek!. The news of the mutiny of the Albanians
in Ibrahim's army is confirmed.
They have seized forum Ccron, and were attacked
there on the 26th of Auril by the Egyptians; but the
latter were repulsed, atter a battle, which cost-the lives
01 several thousand men on both sides. It is also stated
that Gen. Chinch continues closely to blockade Minn.
lnnghi; but the Roman journals say that he has been
attacked and defeated by a Turkish corps superior in
Smothers. It was also reported that the Commaitder'ot
4 Russian man of w having received some insults
nni the authorities of Smyrrra, for winch he could not
ot)tam satisfaction, had bombarded that city, which had
suffered severely. This report is also meotioned ID the
German journals.

.hat whenever pabl.c. money was given to Ireland, it
became the subject of jobbing, and he never saw eriy
good done by the interference of Government id Ireton?.
Sir JOHN NEWPORT said; the epeech of the Hon.
Gentleman reminded him of what occurred•once% the
Irish House of Commons, and which he recollected.to
have heard when a bop k Learned Member of the
Irish Parliament described in glowing term's the prospe-
rity of I eland. 'Another Member, urleplying•ttelsis
o.i.ech. observed, that from the statement of the'Learrind
Member one would have thought that all their halt-
Fence were converted lino guineas, in place of which
lac c(aild not find either guineas or halfpence. The Hon.
Gentleman said, that the 'country was advancing in
..rosperity, and at the same time admitted that the
people calise over here in great numbers to 'look for
employment. If they had employment at home, would
they come over here? if the Hon. Gentleman 'read the
Repert of the Commissioners, he would have seen that
ihe draining orbogs was not so. hopeless or unprofitable
is he represented it, or the difficulties so insuperable.
rbe gteat difficulty arose from the compliettion of
tithes. The advantage of draining bogs Was:fully ex-
emplified in this country. harms to it theroteed that
large tract of land, the Bedford Level, and-seerral
others. lu 1819, a Drainage Bill for Ireland- was
commended, and one actually brought in ItSlBs:3
~hongh afterwards abandoned. 'The' thing, thirefnie;
could not be so hopeless as it was represented. 'Aare;
land had lost her own Legislature, it'was the detrif
the English Government • to pay some attentinntith the
interests of that country: The commerce of Ireland bid
certainly improved since 1800, and that improvement
was owing entirely to the Bill which he himself brought
in for opening the intercourse between both -countries
according to the terms of the Union. But Pram •1806 to
1820, no measure was adopted to follow this up. ' A
great deal might be done bra little money. They had
some claim on this country, which drew from Ireland
very considerable sums. He was confident Ireland had
improved greatly for the last twenty years, but improve-
ment might be carried much farther. Great pod might
be done by the cultivation of four millions of acres of
land, lying in the very centre of the country. ln'lBl9
the subject was brought before the House,'and nnts one
step had been taken since. His sincere desire at all
times was to improve the country. The House might
be assured that some effort -must be made to place it in
la different situation, or otherwise the etils would soon
spread rapidly to England. ; • • • .
Mr. L. FOSTER said he had presented a Petition
similar to this from the Gentlemen of ' the tounty of
Mayo. He should take the present epportuhity of
offering a few observations on the subject, and this
would relieve him from the necessity of saying any-
thing upon the Petition which be had presented. He
fully concurred in what had been • said by his'Hen.
Friend the Member for Derry (Mr. Dawson) that •no
good could result fro'm an extended application of pub-
lic money. .It could not he denied at the same time,
that if individuals were encouraged, by assistance frens
Government, to apply their 'own capital, a great deal
might be done in furthering the object of the Petitioners.
The earliest object of attention should be to remnve the
inconveniences and impediments of a let al dature.—
What the Petitioners•desited in the first place was, that
roads should be opened so as to connect the Fisheries of
the West and South with the interior parts of the coun-
try. In reclaiming waste lands s-,inething had been
already done, and he was assures that many barren
mountainous districts sere brought into a state nicul.
citation. The second great object of ttle Petitira ere was
the draining of bogs. To effect this,•he contend: tr that
no expenditure of public money was necessary, neither
did the Commissioners countenance' any such
The impediments in.the way of draining bogs weienot
of a financial nature, but there were obstacles of a' legal
nature, which he feared were insuperable. 'There Were
ten engineers employed by the Commissioners, and ill of
them, except one, agreed in this, that whatever Might be
the sum expended in drtihing. whether 11. or 20( an
acre, a return of from ten to' fifteen per cent. might
be expected. The tact stated by his Hon Riend
(Mr. Dawson), that bogs were *not actually reclaimed,
was not a proof that they might not be reclaimed with
a profitable return to the undertaker. The first prat
obstacle was, that the boundaries of these bogs were not
yet ascertained. There might be a remedy for this by
application to the Court of Chancery, but that was so
expensive a process, that few, perhaps, would be will-
ing to have recourse to it. Perhaps, however, Upon
inquiry, means might be devised for removing this ob-
stacle. The second difficulty arose from the tenants
residing upon the terra firma adjoining those bogs. By
the conditions of their lease they had the privilege of
letting in their cattle during the summer to feed 'upon
the bogs. It was a right of little value certainly, suf-
ficient, however, to influence the tenant, and to make
him reluctant to part with it. The shortness of his
tenure prevented the tenant from making any 'attempt
in the way of draining, and the landlordavas presented
by the claim his tenants had of turning in their cattle.
These were obstacles, however, which might be se-
-moved, and if once got rid of, much might be' done
without arty great outlay of capital. Each proprietor
might improve his own part, if some machinery could
be contrived to get rid of the existing difficultiers.. •
Mr.V. FITZGERALD said he was most antious-that
the petitioners should succeed in the objects they *pro-
posed. The first thing to be done was•to get rid of the
legal difficultiei.•

""'"g!
•

Colonel TRENCH said, the clear and able itatement
of his Hon. and Learned Friend (Me. L. Fester) ren-
dered it quite unnecessary for. him to go into this im.
portant subject. If the people of Ireland could get
sufficient employment, they would then "see thechuntry
tranquilized and happy. He was somevihrit surprised •
at the speech of his Hon. Friend, the Member fbr Derry
(Mr. Dawson). Whatever improvement might have
taken place in the commerce of Ireland, it could not
be denied that great distress prevailed there. He could
point out in some parts such miserable wretched beings
as would disgrace even the desarts of Africa, and this
not in barren poor districts, but in the neighbourhood
of towns and cities. English landiords were the pride
and glory of England. Many of them were proprietors
also in Ireland, and treated their tenants there in the
best manner: He regretted to say, however, that there
were others who paid no attention at all to them. •For
this they were much more to be blamed than Irish hind•
lords, who having been long familiar with such scenes
of misery, could not be so sensibly struck by them. The
general' principles of political economy laid doom brlt.
his Hon. Friend (Mr. Dawson) might be correct ic‘thir
