OF Commons decided in favor of hearing
Mr. O'CONNELL at the bar of the house,
either by himself his counsel, or agent, M
respect 10 his claim TO SIT and vote an Par
lament without taking the oath Of su-
premacy.
Mr. O'COnnaN was then called IN, and
addressed tle house In person, m an able
and respectful, yet dign,ied speech, in
-l.ch he urged, with great force aud eIo-
qUence, ms right TO a seat as the represen-

The Morning Chronicle says, $50 in-
tense vas the curiosity, boh IN and out of
doors, 20 hear Mr.. O'Connel on Monday,
chat the number of members present at four
O'Clock exceeded five hundred; and the APP
pHcations by strangers for admission to.
the privileged seats under the gallery were
numerous beyond all former precedents-
insomuch that the speaker found himself
under inc necessity of refusing the great
majority Of them. Efforts we're made sue
cessively by Mr., Broughan, Lord Nor
peth, Colonel Craddock, and, we believe,
Mr.. Hume, TO procure this snvied iudulg-
once for some Irish gentlemen much at
tached to Mr. O'Connen, and deeply IN
terested m the result of the debate; but
negative, courteous but decided, was the
inyariable reply from the chair to these
repeated applications
The day at present fixed for the prolo-
CATION of Parliament Is the 18th of June,
But It may possibly be a few ulys later.
We have some accounts from the man
ufaoturing districts which menion a P0r-
tial destruction of the warps IN he looms
ofsuch weavers as worked under the prices
agreed upon last week. But no more Sc
Eious ourages have taken, or seem likely

We are happy TO state, that since our
last publication, the town Eas remained
tolerably free from those dreadful scenes
Of not and violence which it has lately
been our painful duty to record.

PORTUGAL.
The situation of this unhappy country
IS almost i1c01ceivable. The blood thirsty
tyraut who governs it with a rod of iron,
continues TO commit crimes which disgrace
humanity, and which the powers of Europe
calmly witness without making an effort
20 arrest his progress. We hear nothing
more of the expedition from England
The following extract corroborates the
rumOr heretofore published via Boston.

had ITS horrors; twelve more victims have
been sacrificed to tine vampire which is now

butchered al Opor,0, by the monsters who,
under the mask Of supporting religion aud
monarchy, are iatteuiog on the blood Of
these wretched people.
