MIR. aLADSToNE'S RESOLUTIONS ON THE IRISH
CHURCH oUEsTIoN-oUEEN VICTORIA ASKED TO
CEDE HER ECCLESIASTICAL INTERESTS.
By the steamship Hansa, at this port, We
have the verbatim text Of MIR. Gladstone's reso-
lutions on the Irish Church question. proposed
to Parliament on the 23d Of March. A tele-
graph synopsis of the resolutions reached us
by the Atlantic cable, but it was Of very
meagre character, particularly in the report OF
the third resolution.
THE RESOLUTIONS.
In the House Of Commons on the 2Sd OF
March, Mr. Gladstone who was received with
opposition cheers, said: The motion which
wish to make on the Irish Church will be In the
form of three resolutions, to be moved IN COM
mittee on acts relating to the Established Is
Church in Ireland, and the terms OF three
resolutions will be these:
l. That in the opinion OF this House, 1t ls
necessary that the Established Church OF Ire
land should cease to exist as an establishment
-(opposition cheers due regard being had
to al personal interests and to oil individual
rights of property. Qronical ministerial cheers
3. That, subject to the foregoing considera-
tions, it is expedent to prevent the creation
of new personal interests by the exercise OF
any public patronage -(cheers) )-and to confne
the operations Of the Ecclesiastical. Commits
sioncrs of Ireland to objects OF immediate
necessity or involving individual rights pend
ing the final decision Of Parliament.
s. That humble address be presented to her
Majesty, humbly to pray that, with view to
the purposes aforesaid, her Majesty wo-ld be
graciousy pleased to place at the disposal of
Parliament her interest in the temporalitles OF
the archbishoprics, bishoprics and other
ecclesiastical dignities and benehces in Ireland
and in the custody thereof. Opposition
cheers).
The right honorable gentleman continued:
I gave notice on Friday that would take the
liberty Of asking Her Majesty's, government
either to-day or to-morrow-whichever Day
might best suit them-whether it was compati-
Bile, in their views Of the state OF public bust
ness, to afford any assistance for the discussion
able gentleman will now bo pleased to say, what
view he takes of that matter In case it should
not be in the power of the right honorable
gentleman to afford such assistance should
then feel it my duty to bring it on the first day
I could regularly propose it, which, believe,
would be on Friday next, as an amendment on
going into Committee of Supply.

A correspondent in Georgetown sends the
following particulars of Republican meeting,
held on the 4th instant:
The Republicans made their nominations to-
day, with enthusiastic demonstrations. The
freedmen from their respective plantations rs
sembled en- masse to participate in the selec-
ton of their representatives to the General
Assembly. Prior to the meeting groups were
to be seen in every direction on Bay-street,
holding their caucusses and discussing the
merits and demerits of the respective candi-
dates for nomination. The shril Shrek OF the
fife, however, soon summoned them to their
rendezvous, where a hot contest ensued be-
tween the friends and supporters OF the several
candidates, lasting until near five o'clock, with
the following results:
For Senate. q. Rainey (colored).
House Of Representatives W. Webb
(white), ". Il. Jones, Jr. (colored), F. F. Mil
Ter (white).
Clerk OF the Court--Calvin Coe (white).
For Sherif-S. R. Carr (white).
The probability ID that the above ticket I'll
be revised, and the name Of F. F. Miller be
stricken therefrom, as 1t was afterwards ascer-
tanned that he procured his nomination through
gross misrepresentation, and etill grosser i'm
position upon the credulity Of the ilhterate
freedmen.
