England than any thing else could possibly DO. The Irish
people possessed a spirit which would not bow down TO ty-

Union, let him treat the Irish people as he would treat
the people OF England. Before it was TOO late he called
upon the government TO re,race their steps.
MIR. Shell said that in consequence OF the declaration OF
the right hon. gentleman, that ne and his colleagues would
not remain in Office unless they carried their remedial
measures. he begged to know what became OF a portion of
The remedial measures which were introducedlast session,
To which the government were repeatedly pledged, and
which passed through The House OF Coinnons-he meant
the bill Tor assimila;ing the mode of calling iurics i'm Eng

pha,ic manner, that the government was pledged to carry
that bill. Where was it uowI Had the pledge given by
the noble lord been fulfilled? Why had hat measure been

mittee made any report! Had the governments, in this
instance, acted on the principle so cloquently laid down by
the right hon. secretary?
Lord Althorp admitted that lie had given the pledge 10
which the learned member referred, aud lie had done so
with perfect sincerity, and with full confidence that il
would be redeemed. (Hear) He expected the measure
would have been carried; but, at the same time, he lrust

rotary was pleased 10 call his remedial measures. The
right honorable secretary quite mis,ook him ii hc supposed
HIM to say that his opposition 10 the coercive measures
would be In one degree mitgaied by the success OF the re-
medal snes. he did not expect, because he had yielded
TO the impulse OF a feeling of gratitude towards those
whom he considered To be he enemies of his country, to
be tainted with the appreciation lie had bestowed upon
some OF the measures OF government, and TO have his con-
duct ia that respect flung back at him in the way it had
been by the right honorable secretary.
MIR. Stanley said tina, lie understood the honorable and
learned member to have expressed his doubts as TO whe-
her Tho ministers possessed the power OF carrying their
emedial measures through the House OF Lords.
Mr.. o Connel admitted that he had done so, but not IS a
ground for opposing the coercive measures.

themselves with reei eel 10 the feeling OF the irish people.
No remedial measure would be received win gratitude in

pie OF Ireland loved Ibery TOO much 70 accept any thing

Mr.. Fergus OConnel said that notwithstanding the
right honorable gentleman had, with his usual indiscre
ton, provoked discussion, he would abstain from entering
upon any debateable topics, aud would merely rcmindt le
