 The primary bone of contention in Parliament, as
 in the country, has been the increased grant May
 nuOth. The subject was brought before the House
 of Commons on the 4th inst, by Sir Robert Peel, in
 a speech of considerable lenglh and power He en-
 tered fully into the subject, and astonsed the great
 body of his supporters, by the boldness of his inao
 saiions, and the length lo which he proIessed h,s
 willingness 10 go ia order tO secure the pacIfcalion
 of Ireland. Mir. ShIel, the mouth piece of the
 Irish nation. gracefully accepted, and warmly eulo
 gised the Premies foresight and iberaliiy. In this
 way the Maynooth grant was introduced, and the
 second reading of the bill fixed for Friday last
 when the debate may be said 10 have commenced in
 earnest It was marked, on the part of some of the
 speakers, by more than usual acrimony and talent Amongst the speakers who dsting ngushed then,-
 selves was Mir. Disraeli. He addressed the House
 with point and bitterness, and the iannts which he | leveled at Sir Robert Peel more savage than payfu-m0re personal than argumeniaiive. He rest ed his objection on the measure principally uil the

 The evening marked by an unlocked for speech from Mr. w. E. Gladstone, gentleman who was understood to have left the ministry on account of his opposition to this same Maynooh grant. With some nbbling criticism on the measure, Mir. Glad stone gave il his unbolnded support, the ground o it's urgency, and the pcculiary of the times. These were the principal speakers during the first night. On Mouday the question was renew ed; the crack speaker oi the night was Mir. Macaule,, the member Tor Ed'nburgh-a man of popular talent, and some- thing more than hack politician. Mir Macauiey,s consI'tuents were strongly osposed 10 the measure; but he proesssd his readiness to sacrifice his seat rather than his principles wth regard to it. He fo,- lowed in the wake of Disraei and was bitterly sar- castle al Peel for his tactics in opposition. This pal of the speech as is generally the in matters in. volving personalities, was more telling than the mere abstract truths to which he gave eloquent OK pressiOn. a"
 On Tuesday and Wednesday the speakers were not generally speaking, of great mark. The | pros and cons were nearly divided The "Young | Enghnd" section. led by Lord John Manners and | Mir: Smyihe, made warm even enihtslasiic speeches in favor o the increased grant The result will not be without it's effect the constitution of parties.
