ESDAT EVENING APRIL 1523.
PARLIAMENTARY COSIMS/FPARY.
lfii,jwa Loans there were some questions pet to the
11.1shiftns relating to the late nee clatious; and it came
est, that, when our pretty gentlemen were disputing
with Spain the other day, they THREATENED Spain!
Aye, aye! They dared threaten poor, weak, ember•
vaned and distracted Spain! But Co threatening of
France ! 00D. thou art jest ! Ayy, eves if the Spaniards
be eabdued! Those Spaniard's joined our fellows to pot
one Ettro Joseru, who, if he bad reusaird, would have
end to tithes, and anktaity; aid ebarch-property.
Josses, who is living it Ariel-it:2,4OK laugh whoa he
looks at the present stattrdf the Spakiards, and especially
when be looks at the 'treatment they are getting from
their• English nosier! Yes, yeas—they deserve all they
are getting. Their loyalty, and 'their love of English
mossy, they are now going to be paid for.
hewer Commonwthere were several matters, but the
mail thing of the night was such a thing as never hap-
pened before: a. majority in favour of a motion of Sir
Francis Burdett! Ah ! but the motion was not for a
Reform of Parliament, for a repeal of Six Acts, for jus-
tice on the Lancashirers, for a repeal of the transporta-
tion poaching-law, for a repeal of Ellenborough's Act,
or for any thing touching the game, the tithes, or the
Justices of Peace power; it was not relating to any of
those things which affect us all so closely, and which
have changed the character or the Government: it was
a ;notion for railing. the High Sheriff of Dublin to the
Bar, and for inquiring into his conduct. This motion
was carried 219 to 185, though the Ministers toted
against it ! Ah ! But, the Protestants of Ireland, the
friends of the Orangemen, were for it ; and not
for the reason that tnade Sir Francis Burdett for it ;
b it, for an opposite reason.--They were for
it, because they expected it to lead to a result favourable
to the Protestants.—Mr. PLUNKETT, in his speech, the
ether night, in order to justify his ex-officio, accused the
SArrilr of partia.'ity, and other things. Sir FRANCIS
BURDETT said ; very well, then ; it is necessary to in-
quire into the conduct of the Sheriff: He, therefore, gave
notice of his motion. In the meanwhile the Sheriff and
• of his Grand Jury came to London ; they were in
attendance last' night, and sent in a Petition, praying
tby Ah, ah! This was, apparently, what Mr.
Proinesa-r did not expect. These men are getting
4` close to the Government ;" they do not, it seems, sit
• griett,y at home, and smoke their pipes," as Mr.
nawirerr told us On season of Six Acts) the people
ved to do formerly.—Tlit fact is, then, it is the
trial of Mr. PLUNKETT, as well as that of the She-
et, that is going to begin next -Friday ; that being
t'e day fixed on.--In the course of the debate,
Mr. Peet. and Mr. CANNING both spoke against the mo-
tion. Mr. Brines was the first to oppose the motion.—
There was great cheering when the motion was carried
bot,.we, for our parts, feel no interest in it. It is what
The Wellesley* and Grenvilles on one side, and the
Church and Placemen of Ireland, on the other—and Sir
Francis thought his motion was on the Grenville side;—
but, it really turned out to Le on the side of that spotless
thing, the Irish Church! The Yorkshire Petition was
presented last night. STUART WORTLEY sold that the
House was "fully adequate to all useful purposes :ath-
eist any change." Now, this is precisely the ground on
which we like to meet the adversary. We think it easy
to prove, that the things which have been done, and
which have been so m,schievous, could not have Leen
done ty any House but this !

MYSTERIOUS!
The Canaan of last night, speaking of the Papers,
justlaid before Parliament, says : "the following instrn:;-
" tions were drawn up by the Marquis of Londonderry,
" (Castlereagh), and transferred to the Duke of Wel-
" lingtnn, Sept. 14, 1822." IVhat ! Why, Castlereagh
cut hi: throat on the King's birth-day ; that is the 12th
of August; that is to say, thirty.three days Were the
• date of these instructions! Or, does the Cocaina mein
that the instructions were written sometime before, and
transferred on the 14th SeptemAn ber,
esidlB22?
Castle Who were
thiy addressed toctlutua• d,. bes,
SiltNeill:as going to Peioni? What should be write in-
strucuons for? What a pretty story this is altogether.
And, then, CARTLRREACUR was mad. We had the Duke's
letter to show that he was mad. The Kentish Coroner
said that he meat have been mad. The COURIER stated
at the time, that the King perceived the madness. And
.01)w, out come instructions, Written by hint at the very
. lime, when as they said, he was mad. The instructions
were written for himself we suppose! But, what is the
use of exclamations? Such things are the natural ef-
fects of the Borough system.

SIR C. BANIPFYI.DE.
It is curious enongh, that the only self:killer, who has,
since the affair of Castlereagh, been found to have been
putty of eel f-tnurd;r,was the man wbo shot thisßampfyidel
All the rest have been insane ; though, according to our
way of thinking, this man, if the account of hint be true.
bad more to drive him mad than any of the other self-killers
that we have read of. He gets a stake through his body!
He had, we dare say, made his cendations. This mode
of proceeding is one that mach is not said about! It
seems, that there has been, and is to be, no Coroner's In.
quest on BAMPPTLIM—It was not necessary, perhaps;
but, there appears to be a great desire to say little about
toe cause of the death, which, we are told, produce& as
" catraordinary sensation at the west-end of the tome
We think that an inquest aught to he held, let the ."00.!
