as to cil

Lord PALMERSTON said that, although much had of late
years been done for Ire Lind, yet much remained to do. In
his opinion no people were less fairly chargeable with ingra-.
titude than the people of Ireland. They were exposed to
many grievances, amongst which it was sufficient to enume-
'ate the ejectment_ of tenants, tithes, the overgrow)' •ire

establishment, and the want of a sufficiently numerous par-
liamentary constituency. But a greater grievance than all
these was the existence of the hon. gentlemen on the minis-
terial benches as a government. (A laugh.) lie thought the
union of sentiment between the two countries had been dis-
solved, but he still hoped the legislative union never would
be repealed. He hoped that government did not mean to
dismiss parlimhent leaving Ireland in its present state of
excitement, unless they wished to see anarchy spreading
throughout the country.
Sir R. PEEL was wt' t- - '

~u►ng to admit that the government of
Ireland ought to be conducted in a spirit of moderation,
concession, forbearance, and perfect impartiality. tie strongly
condemned the ejection of tenants in Ireland, amidst loud
cheering from both sides of the house. He said that each
landlord about to exercise such an authority should recollect
that other landlords had a right to pursue the same course,
and that if pursued to any considerable extent the result
might be insurrection from the number of persons thus flung
upon the world without means of existence. The right hon.
baronet expressed his determination to support the Esta-
blished Church and the legislative union, believing that there
was no security for the continued eminence of this great
country except in the maintenance of the legislative union,
and he hoped that men of all opinions and creeds, duly con-
sidering the consequences of a severance, and what had been
the expressed opinions of every public man of every party—
he did hope that the government might confidently rely that
the House of Commons would avow its determination to
rescue Irehind from the misery which must be inflicted on
it were the insane project of a repeal of the union to be
carried out.

Lord SEYMOUR said that the state of Ireland was to be
attributed to the measures of the present Goverment.
Mr. SHAW said he could not imagine that the motion of
the hon. member for Waterford was seriously proposed.
Mr. J. M. O'CONNEL L thought that Sir R. Peel had given
no answer whatever to the arguments of Lord Palmerston.

Colonel VERNER defended the proceedings of the Orange-
men of Ireland ; they had never interfered with the proces-
sions on St. Patrick's-day.

Lord EBRINGTON said-that the speech of Lord Stanley on
a former evening was calculated to cause deep regret to all
those who had hoped to see a different course adopted to-
wards Ireland, in which country it could not fail to produce
the very effects they were now striving to prevent.
Lori J. RUSSELL said, that when the present government
took office, such was the profound tranquility of Ireland that
they were enabled to discharge eight stipendiary magistrates,
nearly the whole of whom they had since been compelled to
reappoint. He regretted equally the course pursued by the
Government and that pursued by Mr. O'Connell, producing
as they did, the present state of excitement in Ireland.
M r. TREL AWN EY thought this bill would only tend to keep
up the existing excitement, instead of allaying it.
Lord DUNGANNON supported the measure, as likely to
quiet the present discontent in Ireland, which arose from the
machinations of agitators and demagogues.
Mr. WARD felt gratified at hearing the speech of Sir R.
Peel, which he looked upon as an answer to that of Sir J.
Graham on a former evening.
After some observations from Mr. \%YSE and Mr. Ross,
Mr. DUNCOMBE said, that hon. members on his side of
he house were, like himself, in a false position as regarded
this bili, which they had supported in 1838 and 1840, though
now opposing it. For his own part, he owned his error, and
hearing the objections of the Irish members to the bill, he
felt he ought to oppose it.
Mr. S. CRAWFORD, Mr. W. S. O'BRIEN, and Lord,
CLEMENTS subsequently addressed the house, after which
Sir H. W. BARRON expressed his willingness to withdraw
the amendment, which was acceded to by the house.
On the motion that the Speaker leave the chair,
Mr. T. DUNCOMBE asked Sir R. Peel if the Lord Chan-
cellor of Ireland, in dismissing certain Irish magistrates, in
consequence of what had transpired in Parliament, had de-
rived his information from the Government as to what had
so occurred, or from the public prints. If from the latter,
lie bad no right to act upon such information, because its
publication was a breach of the privileges of Parliament.
Sir J. GRAHAM declined to answer a question put to him
in the tone and manner of the hon. gentleman, but in justice
to the Lord Chancellor of Ireland felt it necessary to say that
he had conveyed to the Lord Chancellor the intention of her
Majesty's Government to maintain the union between the
countries, together with instuctions to mark with the utmost
displeasure the conduct of those magistrates who had at-
tended the very exciting meetings which took place in Ire-
land.

Lord J. RUSSELL said the right hon. baronet should also
produce the letter which he wrote, communicating the desire
of her Majesty respecting the dismissal of the magistracy.
There ought to be some other public document to justify the
course pursued by the Lord Chancellor; besides the mere
report contained in a newspaper.
After some observations from Lord JOCELYN, Mr. BE.
DINGTON, Mr. AGLIONBY, and Mr. W. S. O'BotEN, re-
specting the communications between Sir J. Graham and the
Lord Chancellor of Ireland,
Lord Howrex regretted the course which bad been pur-
sued by the government in dismissing those magistrates, and
said a measure of such importance should have,.beeti the re-
sult; of consideration, and should be carried into effect by
means of formal documents.
In reply to a question 'from Lord EBRINGTON as to the
date of the communication to the Lord Chancellor of Ire-
land,

Sir J. GRAHAM said there were several communications
prior to the dismissal of the magistrates.
The house then went into committee.
Mr. H edington moved the postponement of the first clause,
which led to some discussion and a division. in which the
postponement was defeated by a majority of 177 to 74.
On our return to the gallery, we found that the house had
resumed, and the Chairman reported progress.
The other orders of the day were then disposed of, and
the house adjourned.

THE CHURCH

shire last week. One at Burley in Warfedale, and the other

THE REV. Mg. lIENN'S RESIGNATION.—We feel the

former contribution in aid of the funds for erecting a new

ness Prince Albert has added 100 guineas to his further hand-
some donation. The whole sum benevolently presented to
