in Ireland. these returns bad never been accounted
far at all. In enferriag.the payment of them there was
mine. defies in the law, for in a parish its the diocese
of Dublin, the First Fruits of which amounted to 2401.
the law expenses incurred in its recovery, were no less
than 9001.
Mr. GOULBURN said, that when he had brought la
a Bill to remedy the Inconvenience which the Hon.
Member complained of, be himself was the fint to oh-
jeet to it. The fact was that the First Fruits were Re-
Productive, and therefore it was necessary to apply to
arliament.
Mr. MARTIN said that so far from oppressing the
poor, this grant would be bene6cial to them, as a great
number of them would be employed in the building of
churches and glebe houses.
The house then divided, whet there appeared—For
the grant, 26—Against it, I7—Majority, 9. •
Ur. GOULBURN next moved that a sum not exceed-
ing ,93,41. 9..

bed granted for the service of the
linen Board in Irelan.
Mr. S. RR.% said that a greater part of the sum
voted should be appropriated for the encouragement of
the Linen Trade in the South of Ireland. He com-
plained that there was not one Trustee of the Linen
Board from that part of the country.
Sir G. HILL was in favour of any extension that the
Linen Trade could receive, as all the improvement that
had taken place in the North of Ireland was attribut-
able to the increase of the Linen Trade there.

after • few observations from Mr. Hums and Mr. S!
Rice ageism, and Mr. thsotauare in support of it.
• A sum of 7,20 Rf• wail voted to pay the salaries of the
Commissioners appei steal to inquire into the salaries and
Julies of the Ministers of Joule. in the Temporal and
EeelesiseicslCeerts of Ir. .ad.
On a sans of 20,0001. being proposed for the Army Ex-
treordlnaries in Ireland.
Hr. HUME rapeseed • hope that some account of the
Reiss would be given sett year, to which
Mr. GOUIMURN said be bad no objection. The
vote was then agreed to.
Mr. GOULOURN said that in the next vote of 14200/.
which he had to propose to the Committee, he felt it De.
cessary to accompany it with some explanation. This
sum was intended tole given to the five late Governors
of the Hone of Industry. When his predecessor in of-
fice proposed this vote last year, the disposition of the
hoes' was se strong against it that that Right Hower-
able Oestleman thong ht proper to withdraw it; however.
be (Mr. Gaullism) thought these individuals were now
entitled townie remuneration for the duties they es as
tisfactorily performed in the public service daring a pe-
riod of between twenty and thirty years. They were de.
prired of these sitnatutne in conseqemece of a new ar-
rangement which U..vernment thought it prudent to
adopt; they appoluted ono Governor and seven Visitors
le place of five Governors as before. The grant nes be-
n opposed pritacipsl4 on the ground that one of these
geetlemes held another public situation of SOUL &year,
which was thought sufficient for him ; bet as that objec-
tion was removed by the omission of this gestletuau's
claim, be hoped the Committee would- not refine to re-
matnerato the services of the remaining gentlemen by
acceding to the grant of LAO.
Mr W. SMITH opposed the grant upon the mend
that the g 1 principle of giving retired allowances to
public servants ought sot to be adopted.
Mr. HUME thought that the parties had not made
oat a sufficient claim to the proposed allowances. It ap-
peared from the Report of the Committee, that use hod-
!ideal had dome the business as effectually as the whole

five tther.
Mr. Secretary PEEL considered that the imliviilu•
ale in question ought, upon public grounds, to be pro.
Tided for.
Mr. If. 0. BENNET was of opinion that in any case
where a Reverend Uentlrtnsn was concerned, clerical
prefernseat and pecnuiary reusuneratkia ought to be the
modes adopted.
Mr. S. MORELAND, Mr. S. RICE, and Mr. R. MARTIN,
said a few words, after which We vote was agreed to.
The. next vote proposed was 28,000/. for the Watch
aid Police Establishment of Dublin for IB23.—Agreed to.

Mr. ARBUTHNOT next moved 200,000 f. for de-
fraying the expenses of the Civil Contingencies Extra-
ordinary.
Mr. HUME thought that many of the items were very
objectioesble. He did not see why so largos sem should be
placed by anticipation at the disposal of his Mejeety. He
concluded by movie,. as au amendment. that the grant be
diminished by bo,oooi.

Mr. ARBUTHNOT dalatiod the original grant.
