RI, R. WILSON' thou rose, and spoke to the fol.
. Slr,—The Petition which I hold is my hind is
(that which, in obedience to the wishes of this ilnose,

I withdrew oa a late occasion until the lion. Mem-
.her •hose conduct is the subject of It—Mr. Wind-
ham Quin--should hero sufficient notice on the sub-
ject, and should be able to attend In hit place, in
order to bear the allegations of the Petition, end to
',ply to them. As that lion. Gentleman is now
present, it is my saunas, and I soy it most stuaffect-
edly, my distreulag duty, to predece the charges
glitch this Petition makes against his. las osiers
the Honourable Gentlemen, that in the intermetliete
time diming which the Petition has boon in my bands,
has. suffered so partial communication to be node
of its contents, calculated to prejudice the elude of
these who ought to administer impa►tial jostice on
the subject. And it is bet due to the Petitioner and
his friends, to state, that in all their cnirespendence
and commenicetions with me t► hate evinced the

most rawest wish that so poliiical fediusinshoold be
plowed to mil itself op with a trengseilWritilish was

io become she subject of judicial decision. I regret
extremely, that the report of what formerly sk
piece in the House on that subject was so loom e,
as to be calculated to mislead the Honourable o-
ttoman, both in the matter of charge which the Pen.
don cnoisins, mid In the course which I had pre-
scribed to myself en the subject. Whew I recapitu-
late, es I em Own to do, that which t said nit pre.
seining this Petition in the first instance, the House
will, I am sole, records, the substance, sod even
the words which I lased on that occasion ; as I shall
only RA a short statement of what has token place
since that period, I beg the House will beer in mind,
that I em only the vehicle of the 'emotion spinet
the Honourable Gentleman. At the same time I
must saw, that after my knowledge of the character
of the Petitioner, and of the witnesses with which he
was prepared to support his allegations, and after in-
specting the asereepoodeoce which passed between
the parties, I should set have been jestified had I
not persevered in calling the most serious lineation of
Parliament on the subject. Sir, I before stated.
that in July last the Honourable Gentlemen was sp.

sews. In consequence of that appointment the
office of Clerk of the Peace for the County fell, or
was presumed by the Ifonooreble Gentleman to fall,
ender his ',strange. In Ireland the Clerk of the
Pasco is not only an officer minis►erial to the civil
and criminal judicature of the country, but he is us
officer charged with the care of the whole of the
documents r►lative to the election of Representa-
tives. The value of this office is eight hundred
pounds a year. The Petitioner, 'noises William
Grady, states, that he had held it is the Gouty of
Limerick for about 15 years; but that being much af-
flicted with the gout, the duties of the office had been
exercised by a Deputy. Soon after the appointment
of the Honourable Gentleman to be Cassius Rotolo.
rum of the County of Limerick, he gave the Peti-
tioner notice— I believe in a personal consmenkatien
—that be should be obliged to deprive him of his
situation, but that he was disposed to allow him
4001. a year oat of the salary of the office. This
proposition the Petitioner rejected. The Hootserable
Gentleman then went to England. Ile returned to
Ireland in September, when Mr. Carew Smyth. a
Gentleman at the Irish Bar, waited upon hiss I.
Dublin, on behalf of the Petitioner, its order to as-
certain the Honeerable Gentleman's determination.
't be Hoonerahle Gentleman, at that interview, stated
to Mr. Carew Smyth, that he was obliged to glee the
appointment of Clerk of the Peace to Mr. Richard
Smyth, of Limerick, not for his life, bet only dor-
kg his pleasure, by which proceeding he should
secure the payment by Mr. Richard Smyth of such
annuities as be might direct him to pay ; end that it
was his intention to make him give the Prankster
1001. a year. ou condition that the Petitioner woeld
support the Hon. Member in his election—not only
with his own vote, bet with the votes of a hundred
i freeholders who were registered among his tenantry.
•rs this Mr. Carew Smyth replied, that he did not
come to argue the case with the Hoe. Centimes, but
that be wueld convey the whole of the proposition 1
to the Petitioner ; observing, et the same time, that
be considered it to be illegal and inadmissible. The
Hon. Gentleman said, in reply, that he did not see
the thine in the light io *shish it was viewed by Mr.
Carew Smith; that he ought to receive an melts-
lent for the patronage which he relinquished ; and
that he was determined, in short, to hwy.. a quid pro
quo. On the heat day, the Hon. Gentleman, se-
eon.ranied by Mr. Thomas Goold (a respectable
