MISCELLANEOUS . Ireland .
The Catholic Burial-Permit-Bill , as it is called , excites great commotion in Ireland . We deem it right to state that
Dr . Magee , the Archbishop of Dublin , has written a letter to the Bishop of Limerick , which has since been made public , denying altogether that he ever gave any orders for interrupting or interfering with the burials of Catholics . At the
same time he acknowledges , that t > eing on one or two occasions , subsequent to the iirst misunderstandings on this case , consulted " by some of the parish ministers as to what they should do in this new and alarming state of things , should a Roman Catholic Priest insist on exercising his functions at an interment in their church-yards / ' his advice to them

wa « v ** that they should be ready at thefr posts , to officiate according to the rites of the Established Church ; and that , if not permitted , and that the Priest still persevered in his invasion oftheir rights , they should employ no force and oppose no resistance , further than to protest formally and solemnly the unlawfulness of the
act , with a view to tiltenor proceedings before the proper tribunal ^ ' —The Momiug Chronicle of the 17 th inst . remarks , ^ ith great sang froid , that to the Archbishop ' s " supposed interference with Catholic Burials—he is chiefly indebted for any little celebrity he has obtained in-England . * What will be thought of this bv the numerous assailants of the

In the Debate in the House of Commons upon Lord Althorp ' s motion on the State of Ireland , ( May 12 , ) Mr . Tierney reminded Mr . Canning of what had taken place in the other House upon the Uni ~ tartan Marriage BUI : — < c Does not the
Right Honourable Gentleman know that there are two parties even in the Church ? Has he read the newspapers as to what passed in another place upon a different question ? A plain man might have thought that he was following a pretty safe leader when lie went with the
Archbishop of Canterbury , who himself was followed by the Archbishop of York , and seven other Bishops : no such thing ; the Archbishops , and the seven Bishops too , were nothing compared with him who is in fact , though not in office perhaps , the
prime minuter of the Cabinet . The consequence was , that the Archbishops found themselves in a . s miserable a minority as I ever joined , who have been a minority man nearly ail the days of my life . "
