' LOIIDS- THUFJSDAY; presented a petition from t'He HOUSE- OF Lord Sop VIM to' } y! agistrates of Norfolk, praying* for a mitigation of the Game l; uw. s. The noble Lord expressed'.' an earnest hope that the-, subject would lie seriously considered iu the course of the Session ; but de- clared himself dissatisfi'ed whb the particular a< neud « ieii.: s which an HW. Gentleman ( Mi-. S. Wort ley)- hud proposed in another place.— Lord 3) A'< N- M Y spoke shortly,". and nearly to the same purpose as the last speaker.—' I he petition wus ihen presented. MOrsE OF COMMONS- THURSDAY. Several - petitions were presented ••• asriong- others • was owe from the Presbvterian congregation of Ardelouy Iv, complaining; that they had been mis- represented, in - common with the other Presby- terians of Ireland, as favourable to Catholic Eman- cipation,, whereas? their opinion was decidedly adverse to that measure. Mr. MABKitLy presented a'peft'tloiv frqni Abing- don, ag- aiiKvt tl: e Assessed'raxes ; and after a sliort speech, in which he. recapitulated some of the manv unanswerable arguments against this odious- impost, he Renewed his notice of a motion for the repeal of it, on the 8th of March. 4ir. BroUGI) ajil presented a petition from the Catholic Association, praying- to be heard by their Counsel against'Mr. Goulbuin's bill. The petition - was, lie said, stgiied by ' seven jfoinan Catholic Peers ( there are, we believe^ but. Jire in Ireland,) six ( titulaV) Ai- chbishops six ( titular)" Bishops, and a great number of . other persons of rank. - The same Hon. and Learned Gentleman presented another petition to the same effect, from 300 persons of the town of NeWrv ; and aO. er having very strongly urged the. reasonableness of complying- with the prayers of both petitions, he gave notice of a . specific motion upon the subject for Friday night,— Mr. HUME supported Mr. Brougham's view of the mailer, and made an attempt to read a letter from an Irish correspondent, animadverting very coarsely upon Mr, Goulburn's speech, when he was called lo order by the Speaker. GAME LAWS. Mr. STUART WourLEY moved for leave to bring- in a bill for the amendment of the Game laws — Sir JOHN BRYDGES declared himself upon principle hostile to any alteration of the Game laws, and pledged himself to oppose the bill in every stage.— JVLr. I'URWBS supported the bill.— Mr. PEEL and Mr. TENMYSON approved of the principle of the bill, but professed to think thftt an attempt at au abrupt amelioration of the Game laws might risk the io « ; s Of the partial . reform which would be otherwise attainable.- R~ M, r. I16' I. ME SUMNER declared that he vvould oppose the bill in whatever shape,— Mr BRIGHT and Mr. IH. NKTT declared themselves favourable to the principle of the bill, but avowed their resolution to oppose it, if it should be framed so as to ieg'a 1 i:- e the, murderous use of spring'- guns — Sir 8oBRSt. HERON suggested that for the present it might be as well to go no further than, to legalise the sale of game — Mr. STI> AUT WORTLEY, ' » » » cply, declared his resolution not. to separate the, provisions of his bill, and justified the use of spring- guns as a substitute for a much more dangerous and san- guinary system of protection for game.— Leave was then given. TURNPIKES. Lord LOWTHER moved for a select committee to inquire into the state of the severai turnpike trusts in the county of Middlesex. He stated tiiat. - a sum of no less than £ 240,000 was on the average of years annually raised by tolls on roads and bridges, • in the iniined/ ate neighbourhood or' London, while the public were burthened with turnpikes to the number sometimes of three in the course of a mile, lie then proceeded to show by a reference to the disclosures in the case of the Kensington Trust, that the subject demanded investigation, On the North side of London, in the space of. threfe miles, there were ten Turnpikes, three sets of Commis- sioners, and three Acts of Parliament. The Com- missioners were, in the habit of borrowing money from each other at the rate of 10 per cent In one of those Trusts there was one item of £ 47( t0 fot interest/ and Trustees for Roads were summoned to swear in Special Juries, which be conceived to lie a great abuse. In consequence of enquiry into the Kensington Trust, the money had been taken from the Treasurer, who was a Magistrate, and ail the arrears had been paid off. In one year the amount of the tolls from Hyde Park to Hounslow, amounted to £- 2- 2,000s— Sir E. KNATCHHUI. L se- • conded the motion, but declared himself hostile to any plan, for resigning the care of the roads to the Government and hinted a suspicion that some job to confide this care to Mr M'. Adam is in contem plation.- Mr. HOLMF SUMNER approved of the proposed inquiry .— Mr. HUME suggested as an amendment, that the inquiry should be extended to all the roads in the neighbourhood of London, lie said that it vvould be' quite practicable to remove all the turnpikes within three miles of the bridges, • and to make good the deficiency by a light horse tax.— After a fe^ v words from Mr. MABKRLY, . Sir T. BARING, Mr. T. WILSON, Alderman IIEYGATK, and Sir H. PARNELL, the motion was carried as amended by Mr. Hume. The Irish Committee of Inquiry appointed last session, was re- appointed upon the motion of Mr. Goulburn. USURY LAWS. Mr. Sergeant ONSLOW then moved the second reading of the Usury Laws Repeal B. ll! — Mr. CAL- CRAFT opposed the motion, adverting to the laws against Stock Jobbing, Gambling, keeping Gaming Mouses,- & c. as complete answers to the doctrine upon which the proposed repeal rested, namely, that every man ought to be permitted to dispose of bis money as he should think fit.— Mr: HUME sup- ported the bill, iu a speech of some length, but without adducing any new argument.— The SOLI- CITOR GENERAL pointed out all the evils which must follow the removal of restraints upon JJsiiry at any time, and particularly at present, when the spirit of gambling prevails to an alarming extent He moved as an amendment, that the bill should be read that day six motiths.— The debate was pro- longed bv Mr. Sergeant ONSLOW, Capt. MABERLY, Mr. W. SMITH, and Mr. C, W, W. WYNN, who supported the motion ; and. Mr. ROBERTSON, M T. WILSON, and Alderman HEYGATG, who opposed it.— In the end the SOLICITOR GENERAL'S amend- ment was carried by a majority of 45 to 40 \ so the bill is lost for the present session. HOUSE OF COMMONS- FRIDAY. CATHOLIC ASSOCIATION. Mr. BROUGHAM moved that the Catholic Associ- ation should be heard by Counsel, before the pass- ing of the Bill now in. the House, lie contended that those who had supported' the introduction of the Bill might, with perfect . consistency, accede to the prayer of this petition ; and he thought i' would be some consolation to the Catholics, even i the Bill passed, to know that the voices of Messrs O'Connell, Shiel, & c. had been heard in that House. Mr. Secretary PEEL made a most able reply to the Hon. aud Learned Gentleman, iu the course of which he reminded the Opposition of the language they formerly held when they used to be taunting the' Administration with their Secret Committee! arid Committees of Inquiry, on various occasions, previous to the intVoductib. n. of Biils. The Hon Gentlemen opposite were used to declaim against " GrCeu bags," and the <{ meanness" of a Go. vernment sheltering itself under the Reports ol Committees, instead of manfully bringing forvvar their measures on their own responsibility ; an now, when Ministers, relying on. the, notoriety of the case, came forward with their Bill openly, the Hon. Gentlemen turned round, and wanted a hear, ing by counsel, an inquiry, and so forth.. Mr Peel then went into an interesting detail, to shew that measures quite as important as the Bill the under debate, had passed without being precede by inquiry, such, for instance, as the Acts for th Suspension of the Habeas Corpus in England. Th general rule of the House was, that when a men sure was introduced a Meeting the interests of private parties, the House would regard itself as iu th< - situation of a Court of Judicature, and would no pass the P « il! without hearing evidence at the Ba upon which to decide. But here no individual interests were involved, and if the inquiry , wen granted, what Bill / for' the general tranquillity of the country could pass for the future without similar course being observed J If Counsel we once admitted to the Bar upon Bills of general eti actments, it would become impossible to draw th line of refusal, and the House, instead of exereisin its own deliberative functions, would be - occupied in listening- to legal argument's. The, popular Con stitution oi Parliament would be cut up by the if such a practice were to prevail. The SOLICITOR- GENERAL and the Right Hon C. W. W. WYNN ably enforced Mr Peel's argu meats', by shewing the inutility and inconvenieoci of adopting ihe course pointed out by the. Learned Mover, and after an eloquent but ineffective reply from Mr. BROUGHAM, the House rejected. the motion by a clear majority of 131 - the numbers being, for the motion 89, against it 222. society or other body of persons acting for redress of grievances in. Church, or State, renewing iis meetings for uiorethau a certain number of days ( the blanks not \ et filled up), or collecting or re- ceiving money , ii . declared unlawful; as also/ every society composed of separate branches or divisions, or . corresponding with any other society, or ex- eluding- f-' ersOris of any religion allowed by law, or taking any lawful oaih at any time or place or on any occasion not required by law. _ Justices, of Peace may command unlawful meetings to dis- perse : and persons becoming members df feuch societies to be punished in manner to be determined.

APPREHENSION OF PISOBERT FOB HORSE STEAUSC '.— This man, who was so deeply iin- pliealed with Thuiiell in the horrible affair ot Gill's hill cottage, was brought to Bow. street Office last night, charged with horse stealing. It appears that lie has latily been down at Rnardean, in Gloucestershire, his native place, and where bis mother resides: hut he was universally shunned in the neighbourhood; nnd after remaining there some days, be took a horse out of a field, and rode a » ay with it towards London. The horse belonged to a miller of Ihe former place, named A. Meredith, whose, wife is a distant relation of Prober!! He was well dressed in a light drab top- coat and jockey- boots, and was committed for cx amination on Wednesday next OLD BAII, EY.— Yesterday, Mary Keaton, tried for the wilful murder of her husband in St. Giles's, as mentioned iu our last ; and Wm. West, driver of a Blackwall stage, tor the murder of J. Coc, an old watchman, by maliciously driving over bint, were severally found guilty of Mawtlaughter.

Demerara papers to 19lh Dec. communicate in- telligence, that several attempts to lire Georgetown had been made. On fith Nov. James Satin thj, a private of 21st regiment was executed at St. Vincent's, for murder ilia Major J. C. Champion in revenge, because the Major had placed him under an extra drill.

Robert Pugh j A B. Vicar of Douington, in Lincoln- shire, and for nearly half a century Citrate of Weston, and Perpetual Curate of Lee Bi'Ockhuj'St, in this county. He was educated at Truro School-, in Cornwall, under that Very eminent Master, the late Mr. Counant, who was famed for sending- to Exeter College, Oxford, some of the soundest scholars the University could boast. The Rev. Samuel Walter, whose serihons are at this day so" highly valued, was the able and pious Minister of Truro, at that funic, and from his ministry Mr. Pugll ascribed, what Dr. Paley . justly denominates, bis conversion to God. As a preacher, he was- not popular, but, w hat is far better, he was useful -.' and by bis humble,- ajf'eetioiiate, and sympathising con- duct, he won the hearts of all who were connected with him. His liberality to the. needy, ylmast passed the bounds of prudence : it almost eqnalled that, of the two famous Archbishops, Fenelonind Lcig- htoij. He suffered many years t'roui au acute ; disr: ise, the paroxysms of which he bore w ith invincible patience and submission ; saying to one who expressed sor- row at witnessing bis agony, 1 am in the Lord's hands, let him do with uie what; seeineth him good." His patience was not stoical hardihood, hut firm confidence in the love and wisdom and kind pur- poses of his God. He trusted in God as his Father, reconciled to him through the atonement made by his Son on the Cross ; through faith in that precious blood which cieanseth the penitent believer from all sin ; and which faith, by the operation of tbe Holy Spirit, makes them meet for the inheritance of the saints in light, as well as confers on them the right to enjoy it. The deceased gave good reasons to his friends to conclude that, liue those recorded ill the 11 til of Hebrews, be " died in faith, and became an heir of the righteousness which is by Faith. " Write, blessed ate the dead which die in ihe Lord ! Yea, satth Ihe Spirit, for they rest from their la- bours, and their works do follow them On Wednesday last, Mr. John Thomas, maltster, of The Lea, in this county.

Some statements, copied froth London Papers, as to the amount of Loans advanced to Foreign Powers by British subjects, and as lu llie amount proposed to be raised on various speculations, having got into circulation ( see 4th page); it may not be amiss to correct an erroneous impression that may tend to alarm some persons,— Whatever may be tbe nominal amount of tbe money to he raised for. new speculations, it is believed that not more than. 5 millions have been really subscribed. — The loans actually advanced lo Foreign European Powers do not exceed 60 millions sterling, of which France has had about 30 millions sterling; and a proportionate reduction of the actual sum advanced iay tie made in tbe South American Loans.— The actual sums which have been advanced in England for Loaus and Speculations, amount, perhaps to about 50 millions sterling, aud tbe nominal cn- ements to about 160 millions. Mr. Peile, of Trinity College, Cam- bridge, is elected Scholar of that University, ou the Founda- tion of Dr. Davies. Mr. Peile was a pupil of Dr. Butler at the Royal Free Grammar School in this town, and, by an instance of rare success, has ob- tained this high honour, like Mr. Kennedy last year, after having resided only one Term iu the University. That two scholars from tbe same school should have attained the same high distinc- tion in their first year, for two years " successively, is we believe quite unexampled. We understand thai there were 37 Competitors of various years, and that the only vote among the Examiners not given to Mr. Peile was given to another popil of Dr. Butler. POS'Ji'SCRlrT.

A deputation from Ibe Catholic Association of Ireland, consisting of Mr, O'Connell, Mr. Shiel, and four or live other gentlemen, passed through this town on Thursday. Committed to our County Gaol, Thos. Coicfcy, charged with stealing a mare, the property of Anne Davies, of Edstaston, in the parish of Wem. CAUTION.— Families in tiie vicinity of Shrews bury are cautioned against the deceptions of a person who has recently obtained meat and drink and in some cases small sums of money, at various places, by pretending that lie has called to inform the family that a parcel directed for some individual of it is laying at the Lion Coach- Office, in this town j w hen, in fact, the whole has been a deceptive tale, fabricated for the purposes of imposition. CAUTION TO THE PUBLIC.— On. Thursday se'nuight, a man respectably dressed in black, came to the Castle Inn ( Mr. Drury's), at Wem, and having remained there till the following Mon day morning and endeavoured to get credit with some tradesmen in the town, decamped without paying his bill at the Castle. He was a spare man, pale looking, long faced, marked with the small pox, w alked as if a little lame, and professed to be a Preacher of the sect denominated Ranters.— He took the road for Bomcr- Heath and Fitz, and is suspected to be in the neighbourhood of Shrew bury. The petition of the Birmingham and Liverpool Rail- road Company was referred to a Committee of the House of Commons on Friday. On the same evening the Manchester and Liverpool Rail- rOad bill was read a first time, and ordered for a second reading. THE LANE ENO IMPOSTOR.— Mary Hughes, alias Mar if Co6 Sheriff] has been committed to Stafford house of correction for three months, tp hard labour, for " appearing at Lane End & Hanley, and endeavouring to procure, and having procured, money, clothes, food, board, lodging, and- main, tefiance, as charitable contributions, from . Josflm Warner and divers other persons, under the false and fraudulent pretence that she was niece to James Sheriff, formerly of Lane End, Wesleyan minister, and had been seduced and ill treated by him.'"— The investigation before M- r, Whieldon, the magistrate, at Cheadle, on Monday, removed every doubt as to the falsity of this girl's infamous imputations, and while it restored unsullied the character of a deeply injured individual, it brought down upon the wrong doer that weight of punishment which her flagrant offence demanded. WASHES, DIED. Lately, at Welsh Pool, in the 77th year of her age, Mrs. Mary, Williams, relict of the late Rev. William Williams, Rector of Llanfyllin and of Llangadfan, Montgomeryshire.

Dawson, of Nant, was returning home on Tuesday evening, with the team and empty waggon from Holywell, where lie had been delivering a load of corn, he had not proceeded more than half a mile homewards, going at a quick pace, w hen one of the chains of the fore horse came unhooked ; he quitted his seat to fasten the chain, and the horses set off again at a sharp full trot, and in attempting to regain his dangerous sitting upon the shafts, he nfortunately fell, and both the near wheels passed over his bowels: the horses were then immediately stopped by some men who happened to be working on the road. Medical aid was very promptly ob- tained, but he was so much injured, that he urvived the, accident Only about three hours. The lad who was his helper was in the waggon. It is ut justice lo say they were both sober. A new line of road along the Flintshire shore, oni below Holywell, round to Mostyn, Talacre, and soon to Meliden, & c. is contracted for, and ill probably become the regular Mail Road. On Thursday morning, the Hereford mail from Chester was overturned, after having just passed the bridge leading out of Wrexham. This accident is attributed to the horses having taken fright at a covered cart which was standing near the middle of the road, by which the coach was run upon a bank nd upset. The coachman, John Wharton, was precipitated from the box, and had his arm broke j but Ihe passengers sustained no injury. On the 12th inst, at Llanidloes, a farmer's son was fined in the mitigated penalty of 20s, and costs, for wilfully being at such a distance from his waggon on the Turnpike Road, that he had not the govern- ment of his horses. Last week, upwards of 160 barrels of culm were distributed amongst the poor of Cardigan, being he donation of Pryse Pryse, Esq, of Gogerddan, near Aberystwitb.

William Bennett, a bricklayer, was put to the bar, charged, upon the Coroner's Inquisition, with Wheat feloniously killing and slaying Jonu IlumfFreys Barley'.' Parry, Esq. _ " Oals. ....... , It appeared by the evidence of four witnesses for the prosecution, that on the evening- of Saturday, the 5th of February, the deceased went into the Prince of Wales public- house in North- street, Pen. tonville, and enquired of the landlord, who was at the bar, after the health of his wife. He was much ' ntoxicated. Having received an answer, and made an indifferent remark or two, he left the house, and was followed by the prisoner, who had been sitting in the tap- room, and who was seen by the witnesses to go up to Mr. Parry and call out " If you are a man, stand up and fight." Heat the same time placed himself in a fighting attitude, and caught hold of Mr. Parry by the collar with one hand and shook him. Mr. Parry said, " Don't strike me; I cannot ( or will not) fight." The prisoner, however, struck him a severe blow on the ace, and then, in the words of two ofthe witnesses, 4 a tremendous blow" on the side, which brought him to the g- round, his head striking- against the edge ofthe foot pavement. He lay quite motionless^ and was taken up by some bystanders, and removec into the Prince of Wales, where it was discovered that he was dead. Mr, ANDREWS endeavoured, in cross examination,, to elicit from the witnesses that the deceased had not only used insulting language to the prisoner, but actually committed the first assault by breaking his pipe, which he was smoking, as he passed through the passage of the public house ; but the Learned Counsel failed in shewing this. None of the witnesses could speak as to the origin of the affray. The prisoner, in his defence, said he had wit- nesses to prove that the deceased was the aggressor in the first instance ; he having broken his ( prison er's) pipe in his mouth and drawn blood, and after- wards " squared" at him in the street. Two witnesses, one of whom was a bricklayer in the employment of the prisoner, swore that they saw the deceased in the street standing up to the prisoner in a fighting- attitude, and one, of them * tated that the former made a hit at the latter before he Struck a blow. A number of witnesses gave the prisoner a good character for humanity. Mr. Baron GRAHAM summed up the evidence and the Jury returned a verdict of Guilty. [ Sentence has net yet been passed.] The late John Humffreys Parry, Esq. FROM THE LITERARY CHRONICLE. " It is only two months ago, that, in alluding to a new work byJVIr. Parry, we observed,—' We are sure the sons of Cambria will be grateful for th service Mr. Parry has done his country, and will allow that he has entitled himself to a niche at some future, and we hope far distant, period, in The Cambrian PlutarchLittle, alas ! did we dream of our short sightedness, or expect that we should have the pain of finding that period we hoped so distant arrived so soon. The death of a man of distinguished talents, in the pride of life, and the full vigour of intellect, is at all times a melancholy event; but it becomes doubly so, when the indi- vidual falls not by the natural operation of disease, but by the hand of violence. Such, alas ! was the end of Mr. T* arry. " Mr. Parry was a native of Wales, and he did honour to the land of his birth* both by his talents and amiable character; he was an excellent clas- sical scholar, an elegant writer, and deeply versed in a knowledge of the literature and history of his country. He was the editor of The Cambro- Briton, — a work which displayed more original talent and deep research than any periodical of the day. He wrote several essays, which were read with g- reat applause before the Cymrarodorion Society, of which he was one of the most active founders. In Philology, lie perhaps had no equal at the present day ; and his death is a serious loss to society and to literature, as he was engaged on a new edition of Dr. Johnson's Dictionary. The doctor, it is well known, was quite ignorant of the Welsh language, from which so many of our words are, derived, and the etymology of vvhich he en- tirely . tnfstook. " Mr. Parry's last work was the Cambrian Plutarch, which not only contains well- written memoirs of tbe worthies of Wales, but an admirable critical history of the literature of the country. He was also an occasional contributor to periodicals, and the Literary Chronicle has often been enriched with his productions. His favourite signature, par. ticularly on subjects connected with Wales, was QRDOVBX. Mi4. Parry was of mild and unassum- ing manners ; he possessed strong conversational powers, and there were few subjects with which he was not acquainted. " Though born of a good family, and with the fairest prospects in life, yet fortune shone not on Mr. Parry, and we regret to state that he has left a wife and five children, who had 110 other de- pendence than his exertions, and are now left destitute. hey have a strong claim on British benevolence, and we trust, their appeal to it will not be made in vain."

Hodnet, Feb. IS th, 1825. k Head high — 5, Caerwys. The great demand for the woollen manufactures of England, both for foreign and home consump- tion, which has been gradually increasing for the last two years, has caused a rise of 25 to 30 per cent, on the various woollen goods, the produce of York- shire and other manufacturing districts. Wool, which is a very abundant source of profit to our graziers, has experienced a rise of 50 per cent. For parcels which brought 16s. 6d. per stone in June last, we hear 25s. have been given by English purchasers within the last. few days. There has been also an advance of forty percent, on beaver ( bat- ter's) wool. As a consequence of tbe advance, blankets, and indeed all goods made from the coarser kinds of our native fleeces, have already risen fully ten per cent, while cloths, the produce of combed wool, experienced an advance of very nearly double the amount, Carlisle Journal. Combing Wool, for which 13d. per Ib. was the current price a few weeks since in Yorkshire, is now 18d. and 19d. and higher prices are looked for— little of the old slock remaining with the growers, Such is the advance upon wool, that we have good authority to state, that on Monday last, three growths of Romney Marsh wool were sold at the high price of £ 18 per pack, with every probability of its being £ 20 before the 1st of March, A short time since it fetched only £ 12.— Kent Herald. In consequence of the enormous increase which has taken place in the prices of iron and other metals, and the consequent apprehension of our manufacturers that they shall be unable lo compete in the foreign markets, and lhat the high prices will diminish the home consumption, Ihe Directors of Ihe Birmingham Chamber of Commerce have resolved to petition Parliament for such a gradual reduction ofthe prohibitory duties on Ihe importa- tion of Iron, Copper, Tin, Lead, aud Zinc, as will be effectual in protecting the hardware manu- factures of this kingdom. Tbe advanced price of iron is said to be very severely felt at Birmingham, where several foreign orders have been contracted for at a rate which the above circumstance will make it ruinous, if not impossible to execute. \ Deputation of West India Merchants nud Planters waited on Ministers on Thursday last, respecting the alterations proposed in the duties on Sugar, Coffee, and Rum; a reduction of6d. per Ib. on tbe home consumption of Coffee was under- stood to be about to be brought forward, and ihe question of allowing the distillers to use sugar or grain at their option was also favourably entertained by Ministers.

B. SHREWSBURY. XJJDI< OW. PRODGERS'S BANKRUPTCY. The concourse of Creditors who appeared at the Meeting of the Commissioners tyu the 15th instant « as immense, and not one in twenty could procure admission ; and as il was Soon obvious that time would not permit the last examination of the Bankrupt to take place on that day, an appli- cation was made to adjourn the Meeting to the Town Hall, in Ludlow, and after some delibera- tion, and hearing Mr. BATHER,' who appeared as Counsel on behalf of Creditors lo the amount of Upwards of £ 40,000, it was fixed that the Ex- amination should be adjourned to the 5th April lie^ t, in Ihe Guild Mail, so as to give the desirable publicity to proceedings in which so many are deeply interested, and to enable the whole body of Creditors lo lie present. We are informed thai the estimated amount of Debt is little less than £• 200,000. Ludlow, 15//* February, 1825. The following Statement addressed by Mr. tVood ( the Accountant) lo the Assignees, having been this day read al the Meeting of C'RKDlTOlct, held at Ihe Angel inn$ the COMMITTEE feel il incumbent on them lhat the same should be pub- lished for the Information of the Creditors at large. JOHN THOMAS, Chairman. Ludtoib, 14th February, 1825. IRS, To- morrow being the Third Meeting in the above Instate, I beg permission, for your information and that of the Creditors at large, to lay before you the circa instances of my examination of the Books and Affairs in the said Estate. My first interview with Mr. PRODGERS was on the morning of Wednseday, the 2d inst. On ins pec ling the Cash Book, I was surprised and1 disappointed to find it had never been balanced from his first commencement in business to the Bankruptcy ; and further, that it contained but a small portion of ihe Bank Transactions, either as to receipts or payments ; and on further explana- tion, it appeared that a great portion of the Debts due to him were only stated on loose Checks, arid other Memorandums found in his ' Portfolio;' those important. Documents I proceeded, . with Mr. Piodgers' and your assistance, to fake an account of, which, after many days' close application, a list • was made of them, though in such an imperfect state, from the obscurity of many of the Documents, lhat, at present, no account of ihe same can possibly be stated ; the numbers of such Checks and Me fe'iorandnms will reach to nearly Five Hundred, ail of which had to be separately examined, which examination was much delayed" by the Bankrupt's inability, or tedious mode of explanation. The above Documents have all to be transcribed into the Ledger, and lhteres' calculated on the same, some for many years past,- as Mr Prodgers has but in few instances received or stated Interest on the numerous Loans he has fronr time to time made. In many instances, also, parties appear Debtors according to the above Documents, though in fact it is known they will ultimately ba Creditors, and foirie to a large amount. It must therefore be evident, to you and to the Creditors, that under such circumstances no State- ment of Hie Accounts- can with any accuracy at pi es nt be stated. The Ledger which the Bankrupt has kept, though containing Accounts both of Debtors and Creditors to a large amount, are generally only such Accounts as are connected with his Pass Books, and it is feared that even those Accounts are in many in- stances incorrect; but beyond all the difficulties just stated, it is ascertained that tiie Bankrupt has been in the practice ( and this ever since he com- menced Business), of receiving Deposits to a large amount, of which he has kept no Account, the same not appealing in any Hook or Memorandum what- ever ; even the Accounts with Marsh and Co. in " which House he is a Creditor of Twenty Three Thousand Pounds, or with she House of Mastennan and Co. do not appear in any of the Books, iVl Prodgers depending entirely on their accuracy, he having no < heck against, them whatever. The amounts, therefore, of the said Creditors whose claims are not stated in the Ledger, can only be known by the Proofs that may be made from time to time; as respects also the outstanding Cash Notes, it. is feared that no accurate statement can ever be made, from the confused mode in which th Account has been kept; the amount in these, also can only be ascertained through the Proofs. It need not be repeated, that, under all the cir- cumstances above stated, no General Account ca be laid before the Creditors at present, either of the Assets, or amount of the Claimants, consequent! no Estimate can now be made of what the Di vidend may ultimately be. Your principal duty will, I presume, be, under such perplexing circumstances, to continue you present zealous exertions in collecting* the Assets, with all prudent speed, and investing the same in Exchequer Bills, which you have already com- menced doing*. To complete a perfect List, of the said Debts, and all the matters connected with the Estate, will re- quire much further investigation and labour, and it cannot now be stated what time the same may re- quire ; but you may rest assured every possible exertion shall be made to place the Affairs of ihe Estate in your hands, as speedily and as correct as such ad v erse ci rcu rnsta nces will ad mi t of. From the manner in which Mr. PRODGERS has conducted bis Affairs, much depends, in many instances, on acquiring a knowledge of the trans- actions from his recollection of the circumstances ; of this assistance yon have been deprived, for a week past, by Mr. PRODGERS'S illness, and who still continues unable to render any information what- ever. I remain, with much respect, Gentleman, your most obedient Servant, JOHN WOOD, Accountant. arnS MiutlUntcm. RATI, ROAD.— At a meeting of the inhabitants of Ludlow, on Ihe 10th instant, it was unani- mously resolved to form a Rail- road communica- tion from lhat town with the River Severn. On Tuesday a Court of Directors was held at the East India House, when Lieut- General Lord t'ombei mere, G. C. B. was appointed Commander iu Chief of Ihe Company's forces in India, aud second member of council in Bengal. It appears no additional Regiment ( except the 2d or Queen's Regiment of Font), will be sent direct from this country to India, but the reinforcement, consisting of four regiments, will he taken from the Cape of Good Hope, New South Wales, and Ceylon : also those Regiments now in India, who have been relieved, and were wailing for conveniences to em- bark for this country will be detained in India, tour Regiments will be immediately ordered iu the places of those who have been moved by the above ai- rangertlent. The mail from Chester to London was lipset near Woliurn on Monday* when two of the out- ide passengers were seriously injured, A Mail Coach in Scotland, Was lately overturned by an amateur driver, whom Ihe Pust Office has lied upon to make good Ihe damage, and he has accordingly paid ihe same. The regulations of that department, at no time, permitted a Mail Coachman to give up his reins; aud il is also contraiy to a modern Act of Parliament; it is to he hoped lhat even those gt- nllemen who are good whips, will feel lhat they ought not to influence the drivers, contrary to their duty. Theif example leads to tiie surrender of the reins lo unskilful persons, and very strict orders have Been re- issued, forbidding all such practices. BRITISH MlJSEtM.— There were admitted into this national establishment last year, 112,840 persons. The days of public admission arej it cannot he too generally mentioned, Mondays,- Wednesdays, and Fridays, in every week. On those days, between the hours of ten and two, visitors ore admitted immediately 011 their applica lion. The estimated expense for the current year is £ 15,410. Amongst the items of approaching charge there are, foi " Drawings from Ihe Athenian Marbles, £ 350." " Engravings from ditto, £ 1,300 " " For Ihe purchase of Foreign Books, and continuing the Works in progress in the Library of Sir Joseph Banks, and MSS £ 1000;" and " Law Expanses, £ 300." In promotion of priming ihe Alexandrian MSS. there were last year expended, £ 391; and the sums already ex- pended in Ihe printing, & c. of this MS amount to £ 8, S77. 17s. fid. The printing of the whole of the text, ant! of Ihe greatest part of the notes, is completed. The remaining portion of the notes and of the Prolegomena^ will amount to about £ 300, which sum will be required in a future year. Another Company has started with a capital of £ 800,0( 10. It rs going fo make a grand street through London, aud to improve and widen the streets leading lo Hampstead, Highgatc, Islington, & c. A surveyor is at the bottom of it,- aud there are already bankers, solicitors, secretaries, and directors appointed. The profits are to be im- mense, and John Bull is to share ( hem. He have nothing to do but advance some Small portion of his capital, aud go to the Cilv every half year for his dividend. There is nothing so pleasant as gelling into a good income without labour of any consequence! !!• The ironmasters ( who already enjoy Ihe boVms of one hundred per cent, on iron, in consequence of the projected rail roads, & c ) will, iu Ihe course of a few years, receive 28 millions sterling from the subscribers, for the rails alone, at the present price of iron,' in fhe eVent of Parliament passing the Bills now intended to be submitted ; and the present price of inland coals at the pits, the sum of ( wo millions sterling will annually be received by these ironmasters, for the purpose of working the steam engines 011 these rail roads The 111 miles of road planned between Birmingham and Liverpool will require 60.000 tons of iron for Ihe rails alone, al the Cost of £ 840,000. According to accounts from the Bank of Eng. land, is appears that amongst the public balances 111 the hands of Ihe Company, are " April 5, 18- 24, Loifcrn Prizes not claimed, £ 14,624; July 5, 1824, ditto, £ 11,752; Oct, 10, 1824, ditto, £ 7,768; and January 5, 1825, ditto, £ 7,271; making together £ 41,415; and respecting the Dividends due and not demanded, there were quarterly Returns, to Jan. 5, 1826, of about £ 1,200,000 f SPECULATION — The total number of old aud new solids aud bubbles is stated to be 356, and Ihe total capital proposed to be employed is nearly 200 millions of pounds sterling. If such projects were attempted to be carried into effect, how many hundred thousand people would be mined! In another point of view, however, what a com- ment is it 011 the " equitable adjustment" and other plundering schemes recommended so recentI11 hy some of our sapient politicians aud even legis- lators! Since Ihe Peace of 1815, the British 11a. lion, or at least some ( we do not say wise) in dividuals of il, have advanced to the European Powers, loans amounting lo £ 174,800,000, of which France has had £ 112,300,000; to North America £ 8,000,000'; to the South Ameriran States £ 26,000,000; giving a total of more than 200 millions, and making in Ihe whole, including our new speculations a total of more than 400 millions ! or about half the principal of our Na- tional Debt, and this has been raised, or is pro- posed to be raised, iu less than ten years after coming out of a most terrific and sanguinary War!!! SUDDEN DEATH.— Major General R. H. Foley, who has resided with his tanni- y in Worcester some time, was on Sunday morning, the 13th instant, in better health than usual, and attended the morning service at St. Helen's Church; between three and four in the afternoon, he walked into Copenhagen- street, to visit a poor woman, ( lo whom the family- had displayed much kindness,) when just as he had arrived at ihe door, he was observed 10 fall: several persons went immediately to his assistance, but he was taken up dead ! having experienced an apo- plectic seizure. The deceased had just completed his 661I1 year; be had served 4!). ycars in the army, aud iu all ihe gradations of rank had displayed qualities which endeared him lo his brother officers, and to all who served Under him. In private life he was an affectionate husband and father, and the last act iu which he was engaged, afforded a pleas, ing proof of the kindness of his heart. General Foley was second son of the late Rev. Philip Folev; M. A. some time Rector of Shelsey, and was brother to Ihe Rev. Mr. Foley, Rector of Oldsvvinford. A new Club iSi formed in London, for Ihe as- sociation of individuals known for their scientific or literary attainments— men of eminence in any clans of the Fine Arts,- and others who are distill- uished as liberal patrons of Science, Literature, Art. It is lo be colled the Athenanm, and is said to have originated with Sir Humphry Davy. CURIOUS PIECE OF MECHANISM.— The in. habitants of Easingwold, Yorkshire, were as- tonished by Ihe exhibition of an automaton made l. y Mr. Clemilshaw, of lhat place, called the alarm stalue or wooden watchman, previous lo its being sent to London for presentation to his Majesty. This curious piece of machinery rcpre' sents a soldier iu uniform, aud is Six feet high. It stands erect, in the manner of a sentiml ou duty, having a hlutdcibuss in its hand; but upon touching a wire it immediately turns round in lhat direclion^ Jrops its head, presents the piere, and fires. It'also, at the same time, rings two alarm hells, and gives the command " Fire," in a distinct and audible manner. Miserable Death in a Debtors' Prison, tneinri tb its unwholesome state— An inquest was held on Ihe 1st iust. 011 Captain Wm Bowden, R. N who died in ( he debtors' gaol, at Cbestcifield. He had long been in a very infirm slate from his services abroad, and from wounds. He was taken out of his bed ( hy an arrest in the Scarsdale^ Couii for £ 20), and commuted lo gaol; the night being very cold and siorntv, and the prison a most loathsome, damp, aud dreary dungeon. These circumstances brought 011 an inflammation upon the lungs, which caused his death josl one week after his commitment. He was served with an. oilier la a process when in the agonies of dealh. Thomas Agar, son of John Agar, of Peasholme Green, York, was, iu the month of May, 1803, the service of Ihe late Mr. Petfr Wilson, of Towthorpe, near SMim- re ; and one day in that month whilst rolling some land w ith a large stone roller drawn by two horses; he had the misfortune stumble over the roller, which was immediately drawn over him. The horses stopped, and in lhat situation lie lay for nearly two hours with the whole Weight of the roller upon his breast. When he was discovered he was in pi most deplorable situation; life w'us nearly extinct, both his thighs, his arms, his collar bone; several ribs,- & c. ' tec: were broken. Hopeless ns his case apparently was, surgical aid was procured, and Mr. Slubbs; form- erly of Yoik, but now of Hull, succeeded in re- ducing the several fractures. By care and attention, assisted by st naturally strong constitution, his bodily health gradually recovered ; hut he was ever afterwards at intervals subject to fils, and from Ihe lime of the accident, to Ihe day of his death, which happened on Friday week, al hi* father's house, on Peasholme Green, embracing a period of twenty one years and eight months, he was never able either to sit or stand, neither could he bear lo lie in bed, in any other posture than 011 his back Notwithstanding this severe tedious affliction his intellect remained unimpaired, and he would con verse with great cheerfulness, wilh those who visit ed him. About a fortnight before his death he was Seized with a severe illness, and seemed to be in great bodily pain. 11 is further remarkable, that when Ihe accident bcfel him, he was a stout and well looking young man, being at that time in the 201 h year of his age, and about five feet seven or iglil inches in height, but at the time of his death his stature was reduced ( 0 little more than three feet, the coffin in which he was conveyed to his narrow cell" measuring only three feet four inches iu length.— Leeds Intelligencer.

Mr. DAWSON ( Member for the County of Derry) wasdecidedly in favourof ihe proposed Bill forputling down all ili » gal associations. An Hon. Member, on a former night, had launched out invectives against Lord O'Neill, the Grand Master of the Orange Lodges of Ireland ; but they forgot that his Lordship had cause to associate against t he fear of Roman Catholic rebellion. His Lordship's father, during the Irish rebellion, was wounded by one of the rebels with a pike at Antrim; he went for assistance to the house of a Catholic who was under great obligations to him, and even one of the women of the bouse tore his wounded band from his wrist! in consequence of which he died. The Catholic Association had allied itself to the Catholic Priesthood, commanded a paid Press, and its orators stuck at no falsehood nor at no languiig* e which could exasperate the Irish Catholics. The Heir to the Throne, the British Legislature, and, in short, all Protestants, were involved in a general anathema, and the Protestant Clergy were held up to their flocks as plunderers and robbers. Such were the sentiments which the Association disseminated by the agency of their newspaper and other hirelings. The Hon. Gentleman read several extracts from the peeehes and papers issued from the Association, which fully bore out his statements. The murder of an Archbishop had been indirectly pointed out to the Irish people as an object for imitation ; and the ad. ministration of justice was grossly libelled by the Association. Rowan, who had been secretary tothe body of rebels called United Irishmen, who had fled t he country for his treason, and who bad been leniently permitted to return, had been, together with another person of a similar stamp, received into the Associa lion with cheers. Why were all the violent speeches made in the Association received there with applause —* wbv were all such convicted 11 patriots" received into the bosom of the Association—- except it was to act on the ignorant peasant, to disgust him with hi: rulers, and to press him into more dangerous schemes ? He ( Mr. Dawson) attributed all the evils of the country to the Roman Catholic Priesthood He regretted to make this avowal, but he was bound by every principle of justice lo his country and to himself, to declare positively and without hesitation the real truth. Their object was to overthrow the Protestant Church, and for this purpose they had joined the Association. Dr. Curtis, the Titula Roman Catholic Primate of all Ireland, said of the Archbishop of Dublin, lhat he was an Usurper ; that be held his right by mere sufferance; and that hi had no more title to the Archbishopric than to the Dukedom of Leeds Dr. Doyle, also a Roman Ca Itiolie Titular Prelate, had arrayed himself against the Protestant Church, and had declared in a printed work that defiance and hostility to the Protestant Church could only he expected from the Catholic Clergy, The long continuation of the disorders Ireland was entirely owing to ihe Priesthood. In th County Court of Limerick, a Catholic Priest declared to Mr. Blacker, who was on the Bench, thai no plot whatever con Id Ire agitated in his parish without bis personal knowledge of it; and he added, that every Priest who did his duty must come to the same k « ow ledge. The determination too of that Priesthood to keep up the influence they already possessed, was well shewn by a Priest of the name of O'Sullivam who had sen a man murdered before bis face, yet refused to give evidence, lest he should lose his power over his parishioners. There was a Priest the North, who, in bis teachings to his flock on th scoreof the Catholic Rent, said, they should pos pone the [ raying of their just debts, defraud their credit aud sacrifice not only the little luxuries, but the ne. cessaries and wants of life to its inieivsis. Was not thisa fine code of ecclesiastical ethics ? a most gener- ous system of morality ? to preach up robbery for th encouragement of sedition5 There was anothe: Priest in the South, whose name was Kelly, resident in Mallow, who preached to his parishioners that mom y was the sinews of war, and that they all should contribute liberally and as larg* ely as they could to the Catholic Rent, for at some period its funds might be applied to such purpose in defence of the people of Ireland. W as not this plain speaking? lie bad really been astonished at the piaise lavished iipon the Catholic Priests by some Members; for the Priests were the most mischievous set of men in Ireland; there was no ill- feeling, tumult, or dis- turbance, that they did not cause, it was the wish and the watch of ihe Roman Catholic Priest to op-, pose every thing free, liberal, or enlightened— to turn every thing to the purposes of his own povier, and that of his own Churchy and finally to fix that Church upon the ruins of the Established Religion r this was his feeling—- these were his Objects— his thoughts by day, his dreams by nighttherefore, while the Roman Catholic Priests possessed such in- fluence, such acknowledged and unlimited coiitronl over the peasantry of Ireland— while they scattered such doctrines amongst them— and while they were so closely connected with the Catholic Association^ he would call upon Goverumeiit promptly to> put down that dangerous and unconstitutional Associa- tion, or let I hem be assured lhat thai Association would put down the Government. Mr. Carew and Mr. S. RiCE, without defending the proceedings of the Association, opposed the Bill, and recommended the conciliation of the Roman Catholics. Mr. BROWNLOW ( Member for Armagh) applauded the conduct of the Irish Attorney- General ( Mr, Plunkett), and eulogised the administration of the Marquis Wellesley. lie called upon Ministers, by their dignity, their wisdom, and the responsibility they owed their country, hy all the respect they bad for lawful government, to suppress the pride aud false assumption of these injurious and unconstitu- tional Associations. It was to bfe lamented that Ministers had not done so last session, when he presented a petition numerously and respectably signed against the Catholic Association. til the North of Ireland, the Presbyterians were moderate, charitable^ exemplary, peaceful, and deserving of every eulogy ; and the gentry of the North; who were described by the orators of the Association as a bigofted, illiberal, hypocriiical* slavish set of men, were in reality, when traced into their private re- lations as landlords, husbands,- and masters, the most active and uptight iu protecting the interests of all committed lo their charge. The orators of the Association had said to the people of Ireland, 44 You must workout your liberty bv the strength of your own hands; every hill is a redoubt, every valley an entrenchment." What could be expected from persons who use such language ? The Bible Society was calumniated as the cause of all the discontent in Ireland ; but that Society had oilier objects in view, arid were as much above calumny as they were above praise. If the Catholic Association was so powerful as to be able to call iip the sleeping strength of the Catholic Body, and to lull it to tranquillity again, so much the sooner ought it lo be suppressed. The Catholics say in their petition, " admit us into Par lianient." Well, suppose their petition is granted, and the Catholics admitted to seats in both Houses, they would say next, let us have the great offices of Government. Imagine that too granted, would they stop there? no such thing: their demands would grow with our concessions. After the leaders were satisfied, the Catholic Clergy would next com in the rearpf the Laity, and exclaim, Give ns the Church property— we are the people of Ireland— we are the original owners of the national property— we are six millions of people— give us the Church property, or we will shake Ibe foundations of all your property. This would be the result of con cessions to that Body. The Hon. Member concluded by expressing hisluipes that Parliament would adopt the proposed Bill. Sir JAMES MACINTOSH, in a powerful and brilliant speech, protested against this unjustifiable attack on tlie cause of Catholic Emancipation, made on it through the medium of the Catholic Association; and be did So with a Zeal for the Protestant religion which had never been cooled or changed by his political opinions. At that period of our history when Catholics we're the enemies to the principles of political liberty and the rights of religious toleration, he should have opposed them with all the zeal of their adversaries of that time. At the Boyne lie should have been their enemy on the strongest prin- ciples- of opposition ; und lie would have assisted the earliest Reformers. IH these principles of religious liberty, and in the political principles of the Revo- lution of 1688, he had ever walked ; in these he had lived ; in these lie hoped to die; and in the spirit of these principles he had risen to defend the Catholic caUs£. The Hon. and Learned Gentleman th£ u went into a review of the proceedings of the Catholic Association, and, inf reference to the harsh expfes. sions contained in the Address which the Association had sent forth, contended that they admitted of a very different explanation to what the enemies of the Catholics had attributed to them. He said, the only permanent danger of Ireland was the continu- " ng to refuse the Catholic claims. Mr. NORTH said, the Hon. and Lertrned Gent. ( Sir Macintosh) seemed to wish to entrench himself behind the strong ground of Catholic Emancipation, without stooping to enquire whether lire pretensions of the Catholic Association were or were riot favour- able to the Cause. It was clear that the Association was, by the Catholics themselves, considered a vir- tual representation of the Catholic Body, By sub- scribing to the Catholic Rent, the peasant in the distant parts of the country felt that his destiny was committed with lhat of his leaders * he was carried on in his career, not for thenakeof Emancipation, as it was termed,- but by the reasonings and represent, ations made to him when lie was first solicited for llie contribution lo the Catholic Rent, and excited hf the views held out to him of future Aggrandize- ment. But the Catholic Rent meetings were another nd a' distinct and alarming evil in themselves. They vi> ere held in distant parts of the country, and were composed of an inferior claw of persons as to information, and harangued by minor agents, who were not sO responsible for their expressions, nor to guarded in their conduct, as those who met near the seat of Government. These meetings wete held under the contronl and by the authority of that powerful body, the Priests of Ireland; and thus, whilst from Dublin issued a stream of whatever was nsolent and seditious in language, from the country there was a reflux of whatever w as dark, narrow, and lliberal in principle; the one proceeding from the fountain of religious rancour, and the other from the turbulent whirlpool of political animosity. The Association had gone on vilifying every venerable institution in the country, arraigning individual motives, and bringing into public notoriety every petty private quarrel. He should support ihe mea- sure for putting down such Associations, because it was Congenial to that part of the Constitution which made that House the sole representative of the people, and because it was calculated to uphold the authority of the law, ihe dignity of the Government, and above all, and beyond all, the peace and pro- sperity of Ireland. Dr. LUSHINGTON argued against interfering with the Catholic Association, and denied the justice of trving it by one or two of its isolated measures. He declared himself an advocate for Catholic Emanei pation, and argued that, as long as it was denied to the Catholics, so long would Associations similar lo that now under discussion rise up among them. The CHANCELLOR OF THE EXCHEQUER said, not- withstanding all the apologies which had been made for the Catholic Association, no Member of the House had yet stood up to defend the formation or ibe acts of that Body. The Right Hon, Gentleman entered into a long defence of the conduct of the Administration in regard to the Catholic Claims; he was himself favourable to Catholic Emancipation; but that cause had been declining for some time in the public estimation, aud this declension had been greatly accelerated by the formation and conduct of the Catholic Association. It had been said, that emancipating the Catholics would give tranquillity lo Ireland; he was friendly to the emancipation, because it would remove a grievance; hut be was far from thinking it would tranquillize Ireland ; the Protestant ascendancy there would then certainly be lost, and if to political the Catholics should also wish to add religious ascendancy lliere, he was sure the Protesiants of Ireland would not feel tranquil. The Parliament of England have endeavoured, by every means which could be devised, to consult the real good of Ireland ; they have removed restriction after restriction, all but that particular one which is connected with the subject under consideration; and all admit that the present prosperity of Ireland is the result of the wisdom of Parliament. " We certainly do not," said the Right Hon. Gent. " want a Catholic Association to assist us. If they attempt to excite our fears, they will fail; for they will enlist our pride — at least as strong as any other feeling— against them. We shall betray our duty; we shall do mischief lo Ireland; we shall render her incapable of enjoying th « benefits which she litis so lately acquired, or which she may hereafter acquire, unless we make up our minds steadily and firmly to put an end to this Association, which I s. neerely iseiieve to he the bane and curse of the coutitrv." The further discussion of the question was then adjourned. HOUSE OF COMMONS- TUESDAY. ROMAN CATHOLICS. Mr. DICKINSON ( Member for Somersetshire) pre- sented a petition front the Archdeacon and Clergy of Bath, arid another from the Householders of Bath, praying that the Catholic Association might be put down$ and that no further concessions might be granted to the Catholics^ who had been so insolent as to hold out insult and intimidation towards their Protestant fellow- subjects. In the sentiments of this Petition, the Hon. Member said be fully concurred. It was his firm opinion that no Administration could succeed in procuring for the Catholics what they demanded, so strongly was the sense of the great ; bulk of the people, and of ihe respectability, of England, opposed to it. The Catholic Association ought to be put down as speedily as possible. SirT. LETHBRIDGE fully concurred iu the senti- ments of his Hon. Colleague, and in those contained in the Petitions which had been presented ; he should have many others in the same spirit to pre. sent, and lie trusted they would produce in the House feelings consonant to those entertained by the people of the Country at large. Sir M. W RIDLEY, much as he regretted the tendency of the Catholic Association to injure the Catholic cause, was sure the charge of the ( jatholics having insulted their Protestant fellow- subjects was unfounded and unjust. Mr. C. HOTCHINSON said the petitions now tinder discussion were a libel on Ihe Catholics of Ireland. If the Hon. Members for Somersetshire persisted in presenting such petitions, ihev might eventually shake the empire fo ils foundation. The conduct of the Catholic Association was aiost proper and ccftsti- tiltional. Mr. DICKINSON denied that the petition was libel- lous; the language was strong, but it was proper. Sir T. LETHBRIDGE said, if the Hon, Gentlemen who were so severe on the petitioners; supposed that they who were opposed to any further concession were to be confined to their expressions, and pre- vented from expressing their Sentiments freely, he was much mistaken. For bis part he should be ready to stand up any time and countenance such language. It w^ s firm aud strong, as it should be, and no more. Sir R„ HERON said it was a libel on ihe people of England to say the great mass of them were averse to any further concession to their Roman Catholic fellow. snbjects. Mr. DICKINSON said that a proportion of one hundred lo one of his constituents were against any further concessions to the Roman Catholics. DEBATE ON CATHOLlfc ASSOCIATION. The debate on this subject was resumed. Sir R. WILSON thought tlie Association ought to be put down, but be did not consider ihe proposed measure calculated for that purpose, and should oppose it. Mr, LOCKHART said, the Catholic Association, in all its proceedings, entered into a direct competition wilh the functions of Parliament, and ought therefore to be put down. Mr. BANKES, juu. thought the Association was a fair subject of jealousy, and that a case against it for the interference of Government had been fully made out, Sir JOHN BRYDGES saidj the Catholic Association had made vulgar and unwarrantable attacks on the Lord Chancellor and other Ministers of State ; and if the Association were not put down, it would soon put do\ yn the Parliament. Mr. GRBNFELL would support a proposition' for abolishing the collet ion of the Cat holic Rent, but he would oppose anv measure that went to suppress the energies and claims of the Catholics. Mr. M ROBERTSON said the Clergy of Ireland had not demanded from the Irish people a tenth of what was their just right; while the landed gentry of Ireland had deserted the peasantry, and thus caused all the. dissatisfaction of Ihe Irish population He wished to see the Catholic Rent abolished by concession, not by enacting laws. Sir J. NEWPORT repeated that he should oppose • he Bill. It was surprising that bile the Attorney General for Ireland ( Mr. Plunketl) had declare that the Catholic Priesthood were a foully calumni- ated body, and that they were mainly instrumental in tranquillizing the country, the Chief Secretary ( Mr. Goulburn) and the Under Secretary ( Mr. Daw son) for Ireland declared that all the evils of that country were chargeable to the. Catholic Priesthood Mr. GOULBURN said he did not make such a statement. Mr. PLUNKETT begged also to correct the state, ment which the Hon. Bart, had given of his senli mcnts. He ( Mr. P.) stated that the Roman Catholic Priesthood had by their uniformly wise and good conduct Contributed to the tranquillity of Ireland. The great mischief of the Association was, in laying* • 2500 parishes under contribution, for collecting the Rent, and that from this circumstance 30,000 Priests were diverted from their proper calling. Sir; V. FITZGERALD said he had always supported he Catholic claims ; and too much stress should not be laid upon'every Sentence uttered by the members of the Catholic Association in the heat of discussion. He did not think that the sense of the people of England was hostile to Catholic Emancipation ; but as he thought the Catholic cause was injured by the proceeding! of the Association^ he should vote foi its suppression. Mr. W. LAMB sflid when be looked at the situation and talents of the leader of the Catholic Association, it was impossible to admit the excuses urged in de fence of that Body. It would be impossible for tran- quillity lo be established, while such a general mart for grievances was permitted to exist as that opened by the Catholic Association, Sir FRANCIS BURDETT, at considerable length, endeavoured to shew that the objectionable passages in the Address issued by the Catholic Association were capable of other meanings than had been at tributed to them by those opposed to Ihe Catholics and said, that, with the exception of those few pas • ages* there was nothing iu the sentiments or spin" of the Address, but what anv man might be proud to adopt. The Catholic. Association comprised the Peers, the Gentry, the Clergy, the merchants, and all that was respectable of that body; and how, then, could it be called a dangerous society ? After dwelling at some length on the discordant opinions, as regarded Catholic Emancipation, of the pr. eseut Administra- tion, the Hon. Bart, said, the only safe way to put an end to the Catholic Association was to grant Catholic Emancipation; and he warmly eulogised the conduct of the Irish Attorney- General ( Mr. Plunkett) in reference lo the Catholic Question, to whom, he hoped, the Catholics would again entrust their Petition, instead of placing it in his ( Sir F. Burdett's) hands for presentation to that House. Mr. CANNING addressed the House at great length, and with his usual felicity of argument and ex- pression. With respect to Ihe existence of the Catholic Association, he thought it alien to the spirit of the Constitution— he thought it destructive to the public peace— and in the whole course of the debate no one had attempted directly to deny that pro. position. With respect to this principal Association, to prove that it was inconsistent w ith the Constitu- tion, it was oniy necessary to take the character that unquestionably belonged to it, according to its own representation— self elected, self- appointed, self- cOOstitilted, self- adjourned, self- renewing, acknow- ledging n » equal, denying any superior authority- levying money on the people— interfering with the administration of justice— condemning before- hand the individuals whom it takes upon itself to bring to justice, and in some cases, when those individuals have been found innocent, rejudging that judgment, and proscribing those whom ihe law has set free and declared to be innocent. That the Association tended to maintain and aggravate the animosities of the country, was evident by a reference to that expression in their Address, which had been so often alluded to, and which, notwithstanding all the attempts that had been made to explain it away, was written in language that could not be misunderstood. All who know any thing of Ireland, know that it is improving in all the great branches of public pro- sperity ; but if the Association were to be allowed to proceed, it would retard Ibe progress of improve- ment, by deterring enterprise, by diverting capital, by destroying confidence, and by striking, in fact, at the very root of public welfare, by setting neigh hour against neighbour. It was, therefore, the duty of I lie House ot Commons to suppress Ibe Association ; to save the country in time; to improve and culti- vate its resources; to guarantee capital by every form of known law ; to preserve the people from ill advisers ; and to establish that peace and Iran quillily which are Ihe best indications of a nation's improvement. The Catholic Association has, it seems, acquired the confidence of the Catholic Body ; and I consider this fact as greatly injurious to the Catholic cause. Honourable and Learned Gentlemen, who had expressed theirtopitiions in favour of tne Association, had thought it right to slate that they were warmly and inviolably attached to the Protestant Church, aud the Protestant Reli- gion The late Mr. Grattan, too, aware how deeply rooted was the attachment of the British people to the Protestant Church, had, in every Bill which he had introduced for the removal of Catholic dis- abilities, invariably and studiously set forth in ihe preamble that the English Protestant Church was inviolably settled by the Act of Union as the Church at of both countries. This most wise precaution has, however, been departed from, for, on the 24il » of March, 1853, the following Resolutions weie moved in this House : — " Resolved, That the property of the Church of Ireland/ at present in possession of the Bishops, the Deans, and Chapters of Ireland, is public proper'lv, under the controul, and at the disposal of the Legislature for the support of Religion, and for such other purposes as Parliament in its wisdom may deem beneficial to the community; due atten- tion being- paid to the rights of any person now enjoying any part of that property. " That it is expedient to enquire whether the present Church Establishment of Ireland be not more than com- mensurate to the services to be performed, both as regards the number of persons to be employed and the incomes they receive; and, if so, whether a reduction of the same should not take place, with all due regard to existing in. teres, ts. ' " That the peace and best interests of Ireland would bo promoted by a commutation of tithes, on such principles as should be considered just and equitable towards the present possessprs, whether Lay or Clerical." These Resolutions were lost by a majority of 167 to 62 ; but the consequence of bringing forward such propositions had been most injurious to Ihe cause of Catholic Emancipation. If bad not added tothe friends of that measure; it had forced back those who probably would have been its friends; and it had increased the hostility of its enemies. The Church of England and Ireland are now united by law; and, said the Right Hon. Gent. " I am only the organ of the sentiments of the people of Ibis country, when I state lhat the inviolabiiih i » f this Church Establishment ought to be preserved. I would, therefore, warn those Gentlemen who deem the carrying of the question of Catholic Emanci- pation, ihe 4 one thing necessary' to the salvation of* the country, that if in the preamble of any Bill which they may introduce, they do not adhere to the same Sacred recognition of the inviolability of the Pro- testant Church, I warn them, I repeat it, that lliei measure will fail. I trftst it will not be said tha because such, is my opinion, I am on that account unfriendly to the Catholic cause. I am, however, decidedly opposed to the spoliation of ihe Church of Ireland. The Rtght Hoii. Gent, then adverted to tlie statements of the Cabinet being divided about the Catholic Question, arid sstid that there had not been an Administration since Ihe Union which had not been divided upon Ibis subject. For him- self, he corild say that he had rejected office, and een prevented attaining the dearest object of Ins ambition, the representation of ihe University ( Oxford) at which he had been educated, for ad- hering lo his opinion on Catholic Emancipation; and what had been his reward ? he had become buoxious to those whose cause he had espotjsed, because he would not act in tiammels, but was de- termined as a free agent to act upon his own re- sponsibility; and a Noble Lord ( Donoughmore) f for, the same reasons, had fallen un « ler the same Objection At the present time in England the great mass of the people is against Catholic Emancipation^ and no Administration that should attempt to carry that measure could keep their situation. In 1813, the Catholics might have had every thing but seat* in Parliament, and because that was noi granted, they would lake nothing: the consequence has been that from that period they have been losing gronud. Mr. BROUGHAM commenced a long and powerful address, by, declaring, himself at once the defender of the Catholic Association and its proceedings, which the Hon and Learned Gentleman proceeded to vindicate af great length If fhe> r proceeding ® , were illegal, so were those of the Conference Society of the Methodists, from' whose minutes of proceed- ing he read several extracts. He called upon the Members of the Government, by the respousibilily of their stations, by. their characters as Statesman, by every principle of policy and prudence, to deal with the Catholics, not by feelings of hatred but of harity— not by measures of oppression but' of con- ciliation ; and lo reflect, ere it was too late, on the consequences which must result from the passing of the Bill. It would ahenale the Catholics irom them for ever. It would turn discontent to rage, and it would arm rage with new weapons. " On your heads," said Mr. Brougham, addressing himself to- wards the Ministerial benches, " on your heads be the consequences of this misguided policy ; and yon, not we, must have to answer for it, if your present measures should have, as they must have, the effect of tearing Ireland from this country " Mr. BUTTERWORTH attempted to reply to and refute the assertions of Mr Brougham respecting the Methodist Confere uce hut the cries of-- Question-'* & c prevented his beiny heard The House then divided, when the motion of Mr. Goulburn, for leave to brinu' iu a Bill lo put do « n Illegal Associations in Ireland, was carried by a majority of 278 to 123.— The Bill was then read a first time, and the House adjourned. The following Members voted in the Minority atrainsl Mr. Goulburn's Bill Visconn") Barnard, Hon. H. G. Beimel, B. Beuyon, Viscount linn- cannon, R. Levcesler, Sir. T. Wilmington, Mr J. Wrottesley, W.

That motion was supported by 253 votes, and was carried hy a majority of six in favour of the Catholics. Mr. Goulburn's motion for leave lo bring in his Bill was supported by 278 votes, and was cairied by a majority of 150 aqainst the Catholic Association.
