general principS., but with reference to the state of Ireland

would afford ample time (or escertsining what Was to be it-
' Oat ;he would a'so let the Bill lie some time Envious to
tote second reading, in order that the principle might be

Air-PEEL thought there was a peculiarity In this case.
Parliament ought to be guided not by the general principle,
but by whit pas best for the trade of Ireland, and what
mould metribete moat to the traaqatillity .of that country.—
Ireland had been devised of her Woollen Irrade for the
sake of the Woollen Trade of England, and therefore it was
but just to continua protection to any branch of industry
which she possessed.

CONSPIRACY IN IRELAND.
Colonel IItIAILY rose to move for certain papers of
great importance as affecting the discussion which was
to take place on the 15th of next month. The import-
ance of the dismission which would then take place, ren-
dered the production of all the papers calculated to

en which the commitments of • I persons to the gaol

To the public and the Government it would rather prove

of exculpating themselves from any charge which might
lurk against them ; to the public it would prove advan-
