§ Mr. G. A. Ellisgave notice of his intention, on Tuesday next, to move an Address to the Prince Regent, praying him to remove from the office of custos rotulorum of the county of Limerick, the hon. Wyndham Quin. A member observed, that he believed Mr. Quin had gone to Ireland; and that so early a day would afford him no opportunity of being informed of the hon. gentleman's intentions.
§ Mr. Abercrombythought the observation of the hon. member not warranted by the practice of that House. The election of any day might be quite optional with gentlemen who had motions to submit; and it seemed, he thought, more agreeable to the hon. mover, that the business should be proceeded in now, rather than after the Easter holidays.
Mr. Peelsaid, that if unfortunately Mr. Quin had left town for Ireland, he thought it but reasonable that he should have the option of returning to this country. If it was determined to try his case again, he thought it was only fair to defer the notice for such a time at least as might afford him an opportunity of being so informed.
§ The motion was fixed for Tuesday.
