The Vote.paper this morning announces tit: • (Tr. W. S. O'BRIEm is to move, as amendment on the first Order a the Day, on Tues- day, resoluti, is i.claratory of the right of Ireland to tat n t'ipal insti. tutions simil. -a those enjoyed by England and Scotland, and renewing the pledge made when the motion for Repeal was rejected, to remove every just cause of complaint to the Irish revile. Sir. O'BRIEN also proposes that an address founded on these resolutions shall Ii pre-
sented to the King, and communicated to the Lords. •
