Clause 1 and 2 were then carried after a long discus-
sion without any division. Clause 3, allowing the trus-
tees of Maynooth to receive endowments, in Hand was
opposed by Mr. S. O'Brien, and one division was carried
by a majority of t.B. The clauses up to 9 were passed
without opposition; 10 and 11 were postponed, and 12 to
14 inclusive agreed to. On clause 15 being proposed Mr.
Wyse rose to defend the system of Maynooth, and from
the aspersions of Mr. I lumptre, and made the assertion
that " Dens' 'theology are., not read at Maynooth, and
never had been read there ;" and that the doctrine of the
power of the pope to depose sovereigns and to break
oaths with heretics were expressly ordered by the profes-

A correspondent of the Record states the immediate
cause of Mr. Gladstone's retirement to have been his
gong to Oxford to support Mr. Ward, or at least the
Tractarians. Sir Robert Peel intimated to tile right hon.
gentleman that he could not possibly go to Oxford to
take the chair at a Tractarian meeting as a Cabinet Min-
ister ; and hence the retirement, which on the Maynooth
hypothesis appears so unaccountable.
EMIGRATION.—On Saturday the Nimrod steamer took
three hundred and eight emigrants to Liverpool, who
could not obtain shipping accommodation direct from
Cork. They were principally from Kerry, and the West
Riding of this county, who were conifottably and decently
clad, and appeared to belong to the class of small far-
mers and farm servants of that class most likely to beree-
'y fit by emigration. The Sirius steamer, in her last voyage
h from Plymouth to London, took over two hundred la-
bourers, and male and female servants, who went to seek
