The bill will probably be much longeron its passage through the House of Commons. Meantime, tbe London Atlas of the 21 Feb., contains an item of intelligence, which, if true, may prove very important. It is, that the political unions in
Lngland arc about to oppose a detcrmi-1 nod resistance to the passage of tiig bill. It will be recollected, that d'aring the agitation of the reform o(cstion,
these unions exercised considerable in
fluence over the public mi'.id, and that
Ministers were charged with encouraging them, as their action was then fa
vorable to the views of Government. It would not be astonishing if they were
now to create '.nroughout England, a
violent opposition among the lower classes to tb.e aubitrary measures proposed against Ireland. It ap pears that the King of Holland has 'jcfiistedfroni levying a toll on the car. oes of ships ascending the Schelt.

intention to give way.
