On the 5th May MT. O'CONNELL offered hiwself at the table of the House Of Commons to he sworn in as representative of the cOun" ty of Clare, in Ireland, by virtue of his elec- tiOn last fall. He was accompanied ny Lords DuncannOn and Burlington. Having presen- ted his certificate ofelection, which was found in due form, the Chief Clerk of the House handed him the paths to take. These were the old paths, and upon looking at them, Mr. OConneI said to the Clerk-"I apply to take my seat under the new act: ana ready to take the oath directed to be taken ny the Roman Catholic members. do not Feel that l am bound to take those paths; (passing his hand over the oath of Supremacy Sc.) and perhaps, sir, you will state to the Speaker for me, that do not consider that ought to be called on to take any other than the oath in the new act" The Clerk having told Mir. o. Councils ground to the Speaker, that officer stated it as his opinion, that the claimant. hav- ing been elected before the new act was passed, could not qualify under that act, but must take the old oaths. The Speaker decided that MT. O'Connell must withdraw. MT. O'C. with drew accordingly. MT. Brougham rose, amid considerable disturbance. and said that, though no one was more disposed than himself to bow tO the decision, yet he could not help think ing that the present decision of the Speaker was erroneous and that MT. O'ConneIl had n right to be heard in behalf of his claim. He denied the right off the Speaker to determine this question; it belonged to the House to do r0. He contended that Mr. O'C0nnell had . right to be heard at the table before taking The "aths. and to state his objections to them. Tn support of his position, Mir. B. cited three nrecedents-that of Sir Henry Monson, ir Iea0. that of MT.

MT B. concluded by moving that MT, O'Conne' he called back and heard at the table.

 MT. Peel observed that the question was ad dressed to the House in its judicial capacity and that 1t must decide strictly accordlng C statute. MT.

 Rotkschild, tie Banker.--A late London Times contains the following statement of a disagreement between this important person and the Directors ofthe Bank of England:

 A version is current in the city respecting the causes of disagreement between an emi- nent capitalist and the Directors of the Bank, which is probably, as such stories generally are, too high coloured, but which is believed in the main facts to be correct. It is said that at the period when the first alarm arose about the transmission of gold to the cont. nent to meet the importations of grain, the gentleman in question was invited to attend meeting in the bank parlOur,where his 0pin. ion was asked by the directors as to what a. mount of gold was likely from this cause to be abstracted from the circulation ofthe coun. try. In his reply, he observed that the cir. cnmstances of the case wore far too intricate to allow of any thing like an explicit answer to such an interrogatory, but that he should conceive, the merchants connected with the north of Europe would not sendigold if they could get any thing else which would suit the operations, that not more than El 100000 tn s0vereigns would be withdrawn. This reply was gratefully received, and being taken as oFacular, though not meant iu that light by the gentleman who uttered 1t, was duly acted upon by the sages of Thpeadneedle street, They saw, complacently enough, tho first million of soyereigns disappear; but as time rolled on, second, and a third million van. ished, and their cofgers daily sinking, while no indications were afforded that the demand for the precious metal was about to cease.- Their ire now broke out against the gentleman they had set up for a prophet, who though ofa nation which has produced many such sacred persons, never laid claim t0 the faculty himself nor decide what it was impossible he should know. He was reminded when he next came in contact with the Board, of the opinion he had given few weeks before he was reproachcd, without any great ceremony or circumlocution, for having wiliGlly misled the Directors: and finally received mint, AAAs sA
