(Ireland: Thus ended this affair, to the very great disappointment and mortification of the Opposition, who had taken uncommon pains, and exerted every influence, to procure a majority.

Has been informed that Mr. Ponsonby made no scruple of saying he would lay five hundred pounds to three that he would carry the question, and that he would never quit the office of door-keeper in the House till he had driven Lord Townshend out of the country.

Is told that Mr. Prime Serjeant and Sir George Macartney acquitted themselves with great honor and activity on this occasion;

that Lieut.-Col. Burton spoke extremely well in support of the question;

that Col. Cuninghame and Mr. Carey, Lord Tyrone's brother-in-law, and Mr. Westenrowe, voted with Government;

but that Sir Arthur Brooke and Mr. James Fortescue voted against, as did Mr. Malone and his nephew;

that Col. Pomeroy left the House before the division; and that Sir Edward Newenham was as violent against Government as ever.
