and unalterable resolution, under the blessings

"To the practices which have been used to
produce disaffection to the state, and mutual
distrust and luminosity between the people OF the
two countries is chiefly to be attributed, the
spirit of INSTRUMENTATION which, though Tor the
present in a great degree controlled by the pow
er of the law, has been but toe perceptlole III
many instances.
"To none more than to the deluded lnstru-
ments thus perniciousiy excited is the cohtln-
uance of such spirit productive OF the Hosl
ruinious consequences, and the unlteu anu VIZ
orous exertions of the loyal and well anecleo
in aid ofthe government are lmperlously lequli,

violence. which, while it continues, Is oesuuc-
tive to the peace of society, and II successful,
must inevitably prove fatal to the power and
safety of the United Kingdom"
A serious alteration took place in the
British House of Commons, on the 9th OF Fep-
ruary, while the affairs of Ireland were under
discussion. The scene is described as quite an
agitated one. Lord Althorp and Mr. Shlel were
committed to the custody OF the Sergeantat-
Arms, but were subsequently liberated on DOW
ing to the rules of the House,

From the London Courier, Of Feb. B.
The address of the House of Lords last night
was moved by the Duke of Sutherland IN neat
and temperate Speech in which his Grace very
adroitly paid well merited compliment to the
Earl of Mulgrave He also dwelt with evident
satisfaction on the union between france ana
England, rejoicing in the efforts which are now
making to cultivate industry and the arts OF
neace among that warlike people. Lord How
ard of Effngham, in secondlng the Address,
referred chiefly to Ireland and strongly recon-
mended moderation and good temper, while no
interest should be looked to but that OF the whole
people.
The DUKE OF WELLINGTON, the only Peer who
spoke in opposition, while he pro1essed MS IN
tention not to oppose the address, made long,
and We must say very unfounded attack on
the Ministers, going again over all the GROUNDS
which he and the Earl of Aberdeen SO repeated
w trod last session. His Grace attributed the
continuance of the civil war in Portugal to the
countenance of this Government Earl Grey
reminded the Noble Duke that our ships were
only sent to Portugal to protect our own SUBJECTS
and it had been alleged that those ships strength
ened the cause of Don Miguel. The Duke said
that the civil war in Spain grew out OF the civil
war in Portuga assigning as the reason that
Don Carlos had found refuge there instead OF
going to Italy But would he not have found re-
fuge there and support, had Don Miguel been
seated on the throne? In the present temper OF
the Spanish nation, it is idle to suppose that the
apostolical party could have quietly retained
"A rhotn CIR OFT pn
ed Carlos, like the success of Miguel, would on
ly have made the contest more bloody and
more protraCted. Earl Grey, therefore, proper
ly stated that he could not contemplate the pos
sibility of the Apostolic party being triumphant
without greater certainty OF civil war In Spain
His Grace complained that we had not interior
ed against Mehemet Ali; saying, that we had
only to send fleet to the Mediterranean, and
that our directions would be as readily obeyed
by that Pacha as by one of our own Admrals.
His Grace wishes therefore to be Dictator, not
only at home, but over all the world. is not
this precisely that spirit and principle OF which
we now complain in Nicholas and OF Whlch we
did complain in Bonaparte. Earl Grey proper
y said = it was not the duty OF the government
of this country to interfere in OF ii war be-
TWEEN the Sultan and his revOlted vassal; that
the Government has demonstrated with the V Ice
row but there had been nothing to justify US IN
making war on him. and he stated that 1atal
blow was given to the independence of Turkey
by the Treaty of Adrianope, negotiated dur
ing the Duke of Wellii.gton's Ministry. On
every point of his querulous complaints, the
Duke of Wellington was ably answered by Earl
Grey, so as to leave nothing to be desired. With
prospect to the legality of the Corporation Com
mission, Earl Grey gave.it to be understood that
similar Commission had been issued with
the consent of the very person from whom the
objection to the present Commission had pro-
ceeded. Earl Grey, we presume, alluded to
Lord Eldon. The Noble Earl also stated, that
he was DESTROYS to put an end to the Coercion
Law, but that circumstances did not permit it,
The debate in the Lords had no other result
than to show a disposition in the Duke of Wei
lington to find fault, without assigning any ade-
uuate reason The Address as agreed to-
In the Commons-after new wrlts had been
moved for Leeds, Dungarvon and Ayr, MIR. o.
CoNNELL began by announcing his intention to
move for return of all taxes repealed during
five years, with a view, of course, to show that
Injustice has been done to Ireland. We hope
a return will accompany it of the sums expend-
ed on Ireland. The Hon. member also gave va
rious other notices, among them one for bill
to secure the liberty of the press.
Mr. LITTLEToN is to bring that part ofthe Kings
Speecb which relates to tthes. under the notice
