worda with one voice.
 Mr. 0cennel! {{vih {vih !he greatest warssaslh, and violence of gesture)-.sI call the hon. orable Recorder to order. He has made use of false assertion..
 Here Mr. O'Connell's voice was drown ed amidst the deafehing cries of "Orderie which proceeded from all paris the Op- position side of the House. \ number of honorable members rose at once, and ae- companed the words with q corresponding violence of gesture. It is impossible 10 describe the confusion of the scene. Mr. O'Connell resumed-"The hohor- able member has accused me of having sworn ono thing and done another. It is quite out of order for member to utter falsehoods.o
 Here the Opposition almost in body shouted ss0rderl order!'' it the full s,rettf of their voice, mingled with cries of "Chairl chair!" 1t was some time before any mea- sure of order was restoredl When the up- roar had somewhat abated,
 Mir. Finn said, Il pronounce the expres- sion which has been uttered by the learned member for the Dublin University to be an atrocious calumny." The latter terms were pronounced with an enphasiss and were accompanied with yehemence of gesture that defy description.
 The confusion and uproar which now en- sued, owing to the cries of "Chair! char!n and aOrderl orderi' which burst from tho Opposition side of the House, with the ri- sing of many of the members from their seats, exceeded any thing that can be ima- | tnI T, Il M. as Chairman of the Committee, to restore order. His voice was lost amidst the deaf- enlng noise which prevailed. Some degree Of quiet being at length restored,
 Mir. Shaw rose, and with great warmth said, ssThe honorable mefhber for Dublin knows that when he used the word false hood-.-''
 Here Mr. Shaw's voice was again drown ed amidst renewed uproar and confusion, caused by the rising of seven or eight of the Irish members at once, each of them al the same time speaking in the loudest and ] most indignant tones. It would have been Impossible to have heard single word eilh- ! CT of them said, owing to so many persons speaking and shouting at the same instant; but that difficulty was greatly increased by the shouts of "Chait chair!n which burst from the Opposition side of the house.
 When the uproar had again partially sub- l sided, Mir. Bernal said, in most vehement and lmpassioned manner; "If cannot re- store and preserve order, must dissolve the Committee at once. It Is impossible for me to preserve order when seven UT !, eight honorable members ali get mp and speak at once.'
 The determined manner and sharp re- buke ot Mr. Berna had, to very great e1- tent, the desired effect; when
 Mir. Shaw, still laboring under great ex- citement, and speaking with much warmth ot manner, said, "The honorable member { Mr. O'Connell,) has charged me with be- ing actuated by spiritual feroeity; but my ferocity Is not of that description which | takes for it's symbol death's head and | cross bones." Tremendous cheers from the Opposition, with uproar from the Irish members on the Ministerial side of the house.)
 MT. O'Chnnell Addressing himself to Mir. Shaw personally, and not to the Chair man )-"Yours is calf's head and jaw bones." {Deafening cheers from the Min j isterial side of the house; mingled with cries of "Order! order!" "Chair! chair!' from the 0pposiion.)
 Mr. Bernal again interposed his authori- ty as Chairman, when having once more restored order, the business of the Commit- tee proceeded without any further material l interruption.
 come now to what are called general | scenes. One of the richest of this kind | which l have ever seen, occurred on the [ l7th of July last. The question before the House was4 that the Municipal Corpora tons bill be recommitted. Several of the leading members having delivered their sentiments on the subject, Mir. Hughes ! Hughes, the member for Oxford, rose 10 address the House. This gentleman, for { what reason l am at a loss to guess, gene- rally meets with a very unfayorable recep- ton: on this occasion 1t exceeded anything l ever before witnessed. The moment he | pronounced the word ssSir," addressing himself of course to the Speaker; he was assailed with the most tremendous uproar { ard confusion. Such variety of sounds, i and so discordant, hardly ever before greet ed rnoita eai Hughes ;1f,,::cc;s 1,::c; .. a 2. once drowned amidst the babel of sounds. 1 Lord Brougham (then Mr. Brougham,) l once compared the House to menagerie; the application of the term would certainly have been most appropriate in this case. Had blind person been that night con- dueted into the house, and not told what the place was, he would assuredy have ttarf xi<< Il
