lord John has abandoned his unfortunate p-ogsay
nto the bands OF his colleague-no light charge.
Sir George p,ocgf begins the world under difficult
circumsssaces. 1t is quite clear that he cannot
tisfy al parties. II was in the House of Commons,
on Friday last. that Lord John, amidst ironica.
cheers, stated that Sir George Grey woud describe
the alterations proposed in the bill. Sir George
Grey did 50 ia very long speech, tho substance Of
whc', might have been compressed into very few
words. IL could not agree with Lord Stanloy'5

give rise to great theological agitation. lie could
rot coincde in the proposal that Ireland should be
exempted tom the operation Of the bill II mn in
suit had been offered TO the Queen of Great Britain,

wouli Imply that The Queens authority was less
paramount n part Of her dominions than
other. lie admitted that there difference be-
tween the conditions Of the English and Irish Catho-
lie church, and that difference constituted the real
difficulty in dealing officially with the question. Il
had been decided 10 admit clauses and of tho
bill, which reduces il to parliamentary declaration
against the assumption Of ecclesiastical titles.
