HOUSE OF COMMONS, MONDAY, JUNK Mr. CA. NNTVG rose, to bring forward his jnotini the present sta'e of the Roman Co » ho1i<- snbjeCts In Ireland. The Rioht Hon. Gentleman observed, when it was rpfl° fled that the event a » d magnitude of the snbjeft which he should this day ore= s upon the consideration of the Hon « e was of such a na'nre as tor quire the most gerions deliberation. he had hopes that he should » ncc ® ed in imnressin? upon the rrinds of all who heard hrm, the necessity of inviting the earliest attention of the Exeoutive Government to that snbjeft. When the debates and discussions so frequently reppated both in th's House and el* er Vher « were considered— when the painful act counts which were receive^ by the post of this day, of the anxietv wh> h » he subjeCt had created in one oart of the Thii'ed Kingdom, was a'so con- sidered, it mi? ht be expelled he should trespass at some length upon the indulgence of the House. That expectation, however, he trused, he shonld be enabled to disappoint; for, however complicat- ed the details might be, he would rest the ques- tion upon plain and simple principles. Were he considered as coming forward in the charge-' ter of a partizan, he should be under great diffi- enlties, in consequence of the knowledge of what had transpired in another part of the empire—- The v'ew, however, which he had always taken of the uhjeCf and still continued to take, was, in eonseoue- ee of what he had heard this day, made the more important, as the unsettled state of things noernted to induce him to press the at'entio'n of the snhjefl on the Honse. So far from wishing to recur to past d'ssentions and animosities, or tt> tonch unon ' he intelligence i'ls' received, he should keep from the view of the House all irritating and fnflimmaforv lancnape. He hoped it was still possible for the House to enter'upon the discus- sion and consideration of the question as a great State nn » , * ertainlv surrounded and embarassed with difficulties, which are liable to increase ; but the existence and increase of these difficulties was 710 reason for rejecting the sober examination of the question j they furnished no ground for turn in?- aside from the consideration of it, for if the Houce wished to give peace to the empire, the qnestion must be looked at in all its principles and bearings, with a view of settling it effectually ( Hear, bear )— With these feelings on his mind, the great principles of the question he took to be these. He apprehended that, without being sus- pected o; ifldulcnngf wild theories, founded upon the supposed righ's of man, ( afavorite topic whith had been afloat for the last twenty years;) or of th- rights of citi « en « 5 that it was an undoubted trmh, not liable to contradiction, that all citizens of the same state are equally entitled to the same political privileges as their fellow. subjects. This he took to he a general rule. He was ready to admit, that to a general role of the kind there might be taken exception*, which exceptions, in- stead of invalidating the truth of his premises, were sobj » Cf to doubt. It could not be denied him. that those who made the exceptions were bound to shew thr contrary of what he affirmed. On them the onus probandi lay. Jf they made the exceptions, they were called upon to justi- fy the grounds upon which they were raised.— TH" next principle, which he thought would hard'y be disputed, was this • it was conceded, thi' as against this countrv there is at present a force combined in its operations, and extended in » trpngth under the greatest eoj> queror which mo- dern Europe ever knew, peculiarly dueled to » wardi the subjugation of ( he Empire. In such a state of things, was it not desirable that the. strictest union and concentra'ion of the energies and re- sources of the State should be kept up— that t'fc- faculties and the affectionate feelings of the peo. pie should be called in' 0 aCtion, and : h^ t no dis- tention should arise to lead to a dismemberment of the Empire? The third general, principle was this, that when there existed such a state of things as that to which he had alluded, which, by chance, or the force of events, beyond the c- » ntroul of man, could not be avoided, that a great perma- nent question, which agitated the minds of the ' community, remained unsettled, and ? ould not be settled by compromise without the inteiference of the supreme power, that then it was not safe to leave it in an unsettled state, to suffer it to be afl < at: but that it was the duty of Parliament j Itind have lived, and still live, he must ask of those w! ir> raised the questions, who stood fir an- cis*) t ways, who would not depart from establish- ed principles, at what period of our history it was they conceived this principle to have arrived ar its utmost perfe& ion ; when it was d'.- fined, where built, when it received the finishing h? nd, and at ' what precise rime if was incorporated into the Constitution of the Empire ?

When she exercised most of the cruel! ties which her predecessor had exercised,- at least not far short of them, infliaing on the sefl which the early part of her reign had overthrown, the barbarities which that se& had inflifled on those of the Reformed Religion— would they look for a precedent there ? Would they go to the reign of Charles the First, when the professors of the Roman Catholic Religion in Ireland, those who wielded hfs arms, wen.- dealt hardly by ? How little cause had they to bless that Monarch wh* established a system of extermination which he aifted upon to the manifest danger of the State. — Was tt any of these periods they looked to, or did they wish to come down to that period ii which some Gentlemen were of opinion the Con- stitution first began, namdly, at the Revolution ? The fact was not " So ; the Revolution had the merit of connecting civil » laverv more strongly with politics. Ik' it was meant to be contended that this desirable state of things was to be found at that period, he should deny that assertion, that state was not perfected till later times, until the reign of Queen Anne, and the period in which the two first members of the Hotise of Hanover were seated on the Throne of these Realms ; then, and not till then, could it be said, that the system was arrayed with perfection ; for from the t ime of Cromwell up to that period, it was nothing less than a system of artificial benefits calculated to cramp the exertions, and to feed that principle which W3s unproductive to the people of the Em- pire s that was the policy which statesmen justi- fied— which . Ministers put forward, and which during three reigns ihey laboured to establish. Was it at periods like these that Gentlemen would take their . stand, and say that this was a system which must nut be moved ; yet this was the sys- tem generally persevered in till the commence- ment of the present reign. The situation of the Catholics, till 1760, was such as he had stated Cut off from all the social relations in life— the law interferjng between the husband and wife— between the child and his father— leading the wife to forego her duties— the child to treachery and disobedience— offering a premium to the son to rebel against his parent, and disfranchising the father for the allegiance of the son— fHear.) Such a mode of proceeding was not in the true spirit of British Legislation, yet that was the blessed period in which those who argue against innova- tion would wish to continue. To disturb the Penal Code was considered by them as an innovation. To the institution thus formed belonged the peculiar quality of decay, for when at the age of maturity, before it began to fl wish it began to decay. Other systems after they were Rittured spread and flourished. It was not until the expira'ion of fourteen years that the first relaxation of the Penal Code was put in prac- tice. In 1774- the Government of Ireland found that they gave way. Was it not true that in the to make up their m* nd » , and finally to settle the question by legislative inteifeience. To this last principle he was not aware of any exception, nor indeed eould any exception be made ; for, in such 9 state of things, nothing c;> uld be more dange. rons than to l » ave the question wild and. unsettled, f lubjeft to public discussions and distentions. The j best way of meetir- g such a state of things, was ' to define the mode best calculated for removing the possibility of agitating the question ar all.—- These were all the assumptions which he thought necessary to bring forward, as the guide of his motion, and he was npt aware of any general principles of equal authority on which- to lest for decision. He was aware, however, that those who looked at the question did, tvhen they objeft- ed to the introduflion of any change into long, established principles, contend, flat there were two great political questions which came m con- I flifl with each other, and interfered to the preven- 1 tion of his assumed principles. The first of these principles, and that was the must general and consequently mast popular of the two was this: the dread of innovation, ayd the danger . of ehtnge. The second was,- the- question of timely conces- sions. In answer to these principles, the qucs. tion always would be, whether in that which was demanded you could not • grant the demand, or you ought or ought not withhold it j and if grant, • d, m what manner the concession c « uld be made, to as to secure the greatest* possible safety, and incur the smallest degree of danger. Those w in) j argued the question on general grounds main- \ tained hat to break in upon the established prder j of things was a task of great diftjculty and dan- ger. The assertion of tl<- danger of innovation ; very naturally implied that sortie fixed and regular • state of things was in existence, a state formed by the deliberate wkdnm of Statesmen-, carried on ' j by long experience, and acquiesced in by the prat- S tlce of the Constitution. In locking at the Penal • € « !• under which the Rornau C< ti!' ® ij « of ne- f the P ' rial Code political disafftflion was ed, anit he sent again", and he lyas brought before i him to the' camp : when asked how lie reconciled the two conflicting answers ? 4ie replied :—" My ! first council was to send off the wiqalshetl, and in so doing you would have conferred a benefit on your cotfntnr, for you toou'd have secured to it the everlasting gratitude of a brave and power, ful people.". Being required to explain his second answer, he replied, " My second council was the consequence of your not attending to my first; for if you exterminated tha army, you had re- solved not to grant mercy in. vou woujd have got rid of a determined enemv." Instead of at- tending tq- ibis advice, he neither exterminated npr. conciliated, !> ut nassed them- home under a yoke. If it was necessary formerly to conciliate, and identify the Popish part of Ireland witn the Protestant part of th" Empire, it wottTd not be denied that such an union was now more than ever desirable. With respeft to all the old. fa< hi'MT> d doftrines, that Catholics denied that tt'was was possible to keep faith with' heretic ® , these were, or certaiolv oucht to be, by this time, entirely exploded. The recognition of such do^ rines as rh^ se w^ tild imply a detestable principle little suited to the enhpdien- ed spirit of the times. Thf tests which for ' he last thinv years they hud been* in the nraflic- of subscribing to, were proof of t( ie sincerity of their attachment to the Government of the Realms. Tt was a curious faift, not generally known, wh j sort of oaths the Sovereigns of Scotland took at i the Restoration. King William and Queen Mirv j had, in the oath which they took rn jrnvern that j kingdom, a clans;' to this effei^:—' « We swear to j be cartful to root mi' all heretics conviffed by the true kirk of Scotland and of God, yf anv primes." Now what mode did they tak- of rooting out these he- etics? Why,. King William remons'rated against the oath; br. t the Cotsnjisstrm?*^ r- rtd him, that he must pir his own Construction upon it, and being of opinion that it m<> ant no $ n<- h thing, lie consequently » wallowed the oath. It would be a little hard to say that King Wi'liam in a metaphorical sen- e, rooted put heretics. The Right Honourable and Learned D . ffor Dtligenan, who drew up the oath of the Statute passed in Ireland in 17.03, held, that both were no' binding the fugitive arid volatile consciences of Catho- lics, and he framed such an oath as they were bound to digest. The Learned Do& or had said that the Catholics were not quiet and contented—. that they looked abroad— and that they would j rather be the subjeits of any other State in Europe. His objection to a doffrine of this kind was of a two fold nature. In the first place, he ( Mr. C.) did not like to teach them to look abroad for com- parisons— the best way of dealing with them, was to enable them to make comparisons of their state with that of their fellow- suhjefls at home, and to convince r'jem, that though they roamed abroad for speculative ideas of happinoss, yet their feel- ngs and wishes ought to be at home, which would have the effeft of reconciling them with their si- tuations at home. When we looked til the con- tinent, and saw all nations, tongues, and languages, and creeds, fighting under one banner against us, it was time to reconcile tbe differences upon reli- hginus matters— It was time to unite the affec- tions, and to secure the loyalty of the people.— If we looked to Russia, and examined the polity of that gi eat power marching at the head of an immense lorce wi. h an Arch- Chancellor, Roman Catholic Secretary, and a Protestant General, and history made the ground of ohjeflion to granting those concessions which the subjefts demanded as a right? In all the re; gns to ** tiich he had referred, the ob- j* Ti > n was held. In Burnett's History of the reign of Elizabeth, as far as legards the latter end of that reign, her Secretary, Walsingham, said, , " that her mind was averse to persecution—- that '' it not until the last twenty years of her reign that she relaxed from her mercy, to persecute the Ca- tholics, not for religious scruples, but for the sake of political opinions." This opinion was main- tained by various writers before the relaxation of th » Penal Code. An eminent writer, Justice Blackstone, had borne testimony to the truth of i this assertion. The Right Hon. Gentleman re- ) ' Hie House would do him the justice to believe that in saying this, he was att'iafd' by no politi- ; c 1 hostility, or personal aoimosi'v towards his late Righ' Tion. Friend. Were he ( Mr. Percs!- val} in that House on the present occasion, he trusted they would discuss the question before them wwh the f- eling" of brothers. He knew not who was to take his right Hon. Friend's stand, ! he knew no* who was to wear his armour, but he knew that he would willingly undergo the force of bis arguments, so the House could. have the delight and advantage of his presence. The con- cluding part of * he preface of the work to which he had just- alluded, shewed the feelings of the wri er. It declared that the massacr° of St. Bar- tholemew conveyed to pos" irity, the tru'h that Papists kept no faith wi h Protestan's. It was a curious faff that this was not the first time that the massacre of St. Bartholomew had b » en used for the vile and sinister purposes. Mr. B-) rku, in his letter on the French Revolution, mentioned its having been brought forward on the Parisian stage in the early part of that Revolution^ and that the obje& was clearly to teach the rnhawants of Paris to persecute. Reverting to tVe irnmedi- j' ate subjeff which was the obj; ft of his motion, he observed that the highest authorities were on the side of the C- lthr"' ics. Mr. Burke, whose pro- phetic celebritv outran that of any other hu- man being— Mr. Fox, whose love of liberty was most ardent— IVJr. Windham, wirh a mind cast in another mould ; who observed with apprehension, an approach to extension of civil liberty— Mr Pitt, whose ardent attachment to the established religion of his country, wa? temper. ' ed arid restrained by geivra! and praflfcal views of human nature— all concurred in supporting the claims of the Catholics. The question was not what were the existing dangers, but how additional concessions- would increase them ?— It lay on the opponents of concession to nrovi » , that one further step would establish the Popish Church and Hierarchy, to the destruction of the Piotestant. It Ijad been said, that Parliament ought not to give political power to Irish Catho- lics; They had ' given it. They had given the eleflive franchise to them. Under the circum- stances of a separate Parliament, he could easily understand why any . hesitation might take place with respeil to the admission of Catholics into that Parliament, lest they should outnumber the Protestants; but, in the Parliament of the United Empire, he had no difficulty in saving, that a hun dred Catholic Gentlrmen would be less d'af! ger > iis ( if indeed, danger were a. term at all applicable in the present case), than a large body of Catho- lic Electors- let loose to follow the diflaies of their' 1 own inclination, and who perhaps would exaft from their Representatives greater deference to their inclinations, from thewant of sympathy which must exist between them.' It had been refused to admit the distinguished for rank, for tAlents, and fpr virtue, and the common herd had been per- mitted to enter the p ile of concession. The con cession must be complete. If that proportion were made by piece- meal, it would be from time to tine rejefted. He was most anxious that the Citholicsi should be taken out of the hands of those who agitated them for their own purposes, Tq correct the minds of such persons was beyond human pow'. T; but it wai within human power to rob - them of their pretexts for disturbing the generil tranquility; and next to the gratification which he should feel in se » ing the Ca'holics pos- sessed of their rights, w,. uld be that of finding the disturbers of the public - peace to which he had al- lujed, disappointed in their expectations. It had been said in another place, that when the Catho- lics were asked to give s- curiry for th? existing i establishments, they replied, " shew us " the dan. i ger to them." A fair answer. If the Catholics did not see the dangers, how could they beexpeCt- In the first of these' eases, Mr. Fi* moved a nr solution that the House in the next- Session would take the subjeCt into consideration. The resohu. tion was communicated to the House '. t f. ords, • and in the next Session ( aldiough a dissolution of Parliament intervened ), a Bill was carried through the House toi'effeCl the ' desired obj- f. It wa, true that Mr. Fox was at that period in power, and the Executive Government was thereby aj> « tpHised of the ptooosmorn. To supply this defeft, in the present - instance, he should move a second R- solution, io- Jay his first Resolution at the feet of his Royal HTgKness the Regent! He conj, urf d the- House ' to. ( tf. nstd*-, that if they d'i ' l not take t'Re question fata their h « nd « , it -. would n.- » t tlvrefore rest. A subj. eCf affeSipif jt- j Urge a pro- portion, amounting to nearly a half of + he porm'- tation of the Emotre, it Vv,* s in vaiq trt bopp would remain i- inagita* ed. • If ( left to be discussed but of doors, it wa^ well jfpownto what heads -. rid Hhnds it would be cops.? g\ pd, ind in what tone it wjvild be ' taken up., . Whoever advised Parliament to turn the qnestsftO'Npse upon the people, instead of confining the discussion of it wjihin the walls of that House, incurred, in his opiajon, a det? pand awful responsibility. Before he madehrs motion, he wished to say a few words with respeCt to the Roman Catholics of England.' By their exem- plary conduCt fhey had entitled themselves, to the ir most indulgence of Parliament. In this in. stance they had waved any particular, application to the Legislature, and wished their claims to be included in the general consideration.— He con- cluded by moving the following Resolution: — " That the House will, early in the next Sessfoo of Parliamen*, take into its most serious considera- tion the state of the Laws affeCting his Manny's Roman Catholic sublets in. Great Britain and" Ireland, with a view to such a final and concrtia- tory adjustment as may be conducive to the peace and strength of the United Kingdom, to'tlie sta- bility of the Protestant Establishment, and to the' general satislaClion and concord of all citt& ts of his Majesty's suojfSs. 4 looked to Austria, saw Hungary in 1809, when Bonaparte isiued a proclamation, inviting the peo. pie to throw off the yoke of Austria, at a time wh; n they had a Roman Catholic Government, a Protestant people, and three schismatic churches, there wa. s suiely something to induce ti - Govern- ment of this country to imitate the spirit of con. ciliation which had animated the other natiens of ferred to the opinion of that eminent person in respeCt to the laws affefting Papists, and quoted a long ertract from that celebrated writer in fur. ; tberance of his portions. The Right Hon. Gentleman then referred to the preambles and provisions of various acts pass- ed in Ireland upon the question of relaxation since ; 1771', which generally went to premise that the Catholics were of peaeeable demeanor, and affec- tionate attachment to the State, and therefore they enacted that certain tests should be proposed . and accepted by the Catholics, as a means of con- j ciliating the people, and uniting the resources and strength of the emp, i: e. He would ask those most clamorous for the continuance of the disabilities, who were not anxious to depart from ancient usage, when and where the wisdom of our ances- tors was t6 be found, which should induce them to stand up for a system which flourished for a short time, but which had been gradually going to decay, for the last . W years. It was for them to- shew to the House where the hazard of inno- vation lay. Experiments hud been tried, and matter of history would speal; more forcibly than any thing he could state. . Relaxations had been tried, and wharwas ( be consequence; no danger the world. What was the conduit of Spain, in whose cause we « ere so eager— to whom we re. commended a liberality of system with respeCt to her colonies ? Would not Spain, if we persevered in our conduCt to Ireland, turn back and desire us to look at home, before we ventured to dictate to them in the adoiinistration of the government of their colonies ? Such a retort might be reasonably expeded. There were those wh >, referring to the transactions of ancient times, held them up to de- ter any concession to the Catholics. Good God ! what would be said of the Catholics, if they, ad- verting to the cruelties of the Ankliaptistsot Mun- ster, to the blood- thirstiness of Henry YTII. and Elizabeth, represented them as the tenets of the i « formers I To such inferences we should objeCt; but the Catholics had at much right to refer to them as we ts the practices of their progenitors, Such horrible atrocities in cold blood, only proved the danger of allowing religious to mix with po litical feeling. Nothing could be more reprehensible than the various attempts made to recall the attention of the people to scenes of former times, with which the present feelings and disposiiion of the Catho. lies had nothing to do. Atriong the mo< t culpa, of these, was a publication illustrated by plates which it was shocking to see In every shop wia ed to suggest the security ? It was their business to submit to the provisions of security, but nor to provide them. Adverting to the irritating speeches and writings during the American war, which were productive of so much mischief, he entreated the House to be cautious how they allowed such produftions of unauthorised men in the present day to produce similar effefts with respeft to the Catholics. Let not Great Britain shut her eyes to the example of other countries. In the great empire of Russia existed a Catholic establishment, and Episcopacy not dependent on the Pope, ex. cept spiritually. In France, the Catholic Church experienced a liberty from tha thraldom of ibe P ipe, which it did not enjoy even in the days of Louis the Fourteenth. Wli » n we saw all this— when we saw that it was impossible the Pope could recover his |- iwer— when we saw the miti- gated spirit which prevailed in modern titles, and which mitigated and aHayed the violence of reli- gious dissentions, surely we could not consider, it difficult to unite with concession to the Citholics security to the Pr, otestant Qiurch. He would abstain from dwelling on that part of the subject, because he thought it would be enough in the I present instance for Parliament to declare its de- termination to take the subject into its own cor. si. deration with a view, to a conciliation, and to the adoption of any ulterior measures which the Exe- cutive Government, in the inter val of the approach- ing recess, might have an opportuni- y of devising and modifying. In framing the pr'> osttion which he was about to submit to the House, he had fol- lowed tivo precedents ; the one, that of Mri Se- cretary Fox, in 17- 33, which gave to Ireland a politic*!

He had never hitherto tiken any pait in the various discussions which had occurred respecting the claims of the Roman Ca- tholics of Ireland, except upon one occasion, when after Sav- ing enter, d into a defence of the measures adopted by th--- Irish Government, he said a few worjs at the conclusion <- f bis speech, upon the subject of those claims The Houst would do him the justice to recollect that upon the occasion to which he was relVrring, he had stated, that, in his opinion, the duor should i\ » c be that upon the Catholics,' but that con- sidering the tone which they had assumed, and the temper which they had manifested, he did nut think it would be wise or prudenr at that time, to comply with their demand, s. ft was true that the conifuct of the Roman Catholics was, at ( he present moment, equally intemperate ; but there was tlrs difference between rhe circumstances of the two periods; * t jl the former period the conduct which he had cen.- uied, wa » J that of a Committee, whose sentiments were adopted hy the • I Roman Catholic body ; the resolution* of which they t! • day had received the intelligence, njere those of a re » pectab, e Aggregate Meeting, at which Lord Fiugal was in the Ciiair -, they were moved by Lord Kilieen, atnjf vwd WMuaiaudy. 1 But though he did cot thiuk the tone and temper of rhe Ca- tholics were at all altered, he would stare to the House his reasons for tlurlung that the circumstances of the country sme materially changed. When the cvesv- an was before debated in that House, th « y did not kuow the iAttritions of the 1 hroue upon thai most intpoitant subject; since that period those intentions had been niajle known by the person authorised to ( nrm an Adm< nistration. He did nut wish i « be disornti ly, but was now known to be the ofMpvm " I rhe ji^ jh- sc AiKhority in- flie Constitution, thv ' he claims of the Roman Catholics ought to be t. ken it. to trie pit s( seiifu< consideration.—- i Sri,*- the tw- nu- r period also, tv* y f. attursau aliuott iu the TJBLFAST COM R; IF; RCTAL CMO SICI.

He was most willing to grant tlr whole of their dem rds, if it c mid b « done wi; h safety ; but no honest states pun would bring forward the question of concession without connecting it with some effesSual se- curity for the Chuich and S'aie ; and he was convinc- d that this was the opinion t { every th- nh ng man in both countries. •— It had been truly » iid, hv an Hon. and L » arne. d Gentle- man, on 4 former ni fht, that the Catholic Question cojild , not succeed unless it was made a Cabinet question. " If," • aid he, " it be not r I ide a Cabinet measure, it will never fie a Legislature mea* ure ;" in thai opinion he perfectly con- curred ; he did n » t tl jink the question could he brought for- ward in anv other wtiy. He enn'e sed that after what h id recently passed in If tlan he felt some difficulty at fir « t- in Commg forward ro support the motion this night; but, upon consideration, it app r. rcd to him, that the vary nature of these proceedings s! r- ved that no more time ought to h- lost in seriously tak'' l| up the question When the House saw the gross perversion of the fads, the astonishing b'ind- nese that marked ev- tv part of the p'oceedinps to which he was referring, it won M be convinced, that unless Pirliament proceeded to the se " ious consideration of the ' iihje<>, the nao « t mischievous e n sequences must en- ue He was con- vinced that it was tl t opinion of all the rpf, - CVng people in Ivoth countries, that I' * a< the duy of the Government ( let who will constitute it) to apply themselves with- every pos- sible energy to this ' t. bjeCt; to collect all the information in their power-; to tak. i a dispassionate review of al! th- laws Which had been pac » e. l against the Catholics; and to . tare distinctly to Parliament which of them ought to he repealed, f If the Government \ rould adopt that coarse of proceeding ! with a firm determination to conciliate tlie Catholics, as far j at was consistent wirfi the safety of our establishments— if, , while they endeavoured to satisfy the Catholics, the Pro- ' tyrants Were convinced that due arremion was paid to th - ir il interests, and to th? preserv. tion of those guards and srenri- '' ties which our ancestors had established, lie was sure that this important qu'stiijn might he settled to the general satis- faction of all par ies Convinced, as he was, that this trea- son-, to be effectually brought forward, must be brought forward as a Cabinet meagre, he was the more disposed to agree wi- h the motion of his Right Hon Friend, because, if i the resolution proposed should he agreed to by both Hon. es, « nd be laid before th* Regent, it mast of eoij- se he taken up seriously by Government. He wis anxious to t. ike the ear- liest opportunity of paying these few words, to fate his rea- } sons for the vote which lit should give. He would not oc- j « opy any more nf the time of the H" U* e, eic- pr merely to i repeat what he had laid upon a form- r o.- cas: on, that in his j opinion a person holding the situation he did, should not discuss questions of this kind Ic W3s the duty of a person | In such a situation tf> crry on the Government of the coun- try, to enforce an inipl cit otiedience to the laws and to ad- minister them io< partially, but not to attempt to alter th- Constitution. He would not now have taken a part in this discussion, if he did not consider himself as in effeft drawn from the situation ir which he lately was; he merely con- tinued In it for th- purpose of tr- sosaCling the husine- s that -* va| in progress through the House He had, therefore, now no duty to pfrform which should prevent him from delivering h? s opinion upon this question. He should, how- ever, at all times be ready to defend the principles unoti which he ailed during the time he had the honour of hav- ing a share in the Government of Ireland, and also co justify, if it should he ntcesssry, every measure of the Duke of Richmond's Government, since that Noble Person hid been . Lord Lieutenant irf Ireland. The sentiments which he had now delivered, a « he no l « nger considered himself as an offi- cial man, could not in any way whatever comm t that Noble Duke. He concluded by declaring that he should vote' for the motiop. Mr. RIDER ^ tould have been more induced to have con carred in the motion, had not the former discussions on the subjeCt shewn the almost unlimited natjire of the Catholic demands. No » ne could di- guise from himself that no con- cession wo'tlJ Itad to conciliati » n, unless there was confer- red on the Catholic a legislative right to an equil share of political power with his Protestant fellow- subjeCt. He was at a loss t l discover how this could he done coosistent- ly with " the lability of the Protestant establishm- nt, and the general concord and satisfaction of all classes of his Ma- jesty's subjedl" He hid no such hope He therefore would not hold out any such hope. The lime might come, when the Catholics had emancipated the'trtelve- f- om foreign spiritual bondl. that the claims might be conc - de 1 to them with safety. But at long as the Pope maintains i his ilireil and unbiassed influence ovet the Catholic Bishops, and the Bishops over the Pries, hood, and the f.- ieathood over the l. aity, he wq » convinced that concession could not be made without danger to the Protestant estahl thment of Ireland, and even to that of the Empire. The Right Hon G - ntle- ) man's resolutions would not tend to harmonize, but to add ) materials to religious animosity. He lor one should there- fore oppose it. Mr. M. FITZGERALD was willing to accede to the • Amendment of the gallant General, or if t! ie House thought j that too much, to the original mo- ion. He trusted that there was a general acquiescence in the principle of conces- II aion. But adverting to some of ; he arguments urged by the")! Right Hon. Gentleman who had ju. t spoken, lie denied the jreat influence attributed to the Pope ov r the Priesthood, and to the Priesthood over the People. In- any securities which might he deemed necet> ary, he deprecated too ofli. ciout an interference by an hostile religion, with the most „ ancient religion of Europe He deprecated the further post- ponement as dangerous, and even threatening separation, and wished that the concessions might proceed from an amicable Ministry, instead of coming from what must be considered by the Catholic a suspicious quarter. With respeiS to the Resolutions of the aggregate meeting af the Catholics, as bias they related to the late prosecutions, and to the ob- stacles thrown in the way of the right of petitioning, he • went the full length of their ripressi9ns. He agreed also, that they were right in proffering no securities; the law was the security to be looked to. The Catholics demanded political freedom, and they demanded it in a manly toue, or they would not deserve it. He rejoiced in this frank com- munication. He maintained, that tnough the Catholics were connected with the Pope, he had no influ - nee m temporal concerns, and that the nomination of all their Bishops in Ir- Iand wis an internal nomination. Mr. FULLER said, every man who wished Well to the British empire, must be anxious to see its religious feelings * ud political strength united; and if that, could be done, and this question of Cathlioc Emancipation carried with perfect security to Chtirch and State, no man would be happier to grant it than he would. Sir J. NEWPORT declared he could not see the neces- sity of calling for securities What was necessary to die protection of Church and State was in the hands ol Parlia- ment, and waseqnally binding upon all meo: betS of the com- munity. The way to have securities was to take away the present restrictions. • When they repealed the , te. t laws against thei Dissenters in 1784, they asked for no securities, and he would ask, had they fousd that the church estdb. is'i- ent was weakened by such concessions? He rejoiced in the feeling manifested by the House towards the infamous pub- lication quoted by the Right Honourable Mover, and was of opinion, that a more fatal measure could not be adopted than the cry of" No Popery." They might depend that in time, it would be answered by a cry in Ireland, of " No Union," by a crv of " Separation." Mr. MARRY AT thought that nothing would tend more to prevent the- realous co- operation and confidence of th » Spaniards, than the pretext which w- affirded to the enemy to represent Us as persecutors ef the Catholics in Ireland. After having conceded, when the best interests of the coun- try called upon th- m to nuke a stand, he hoped they would not think of making a stand in a point which rile best inte- rests of the country called upon them to abandon. Mr. MARTIN said, h » should have approve I more of a resolution, pledging the HoOse tn the consideration of the questioh. with a view to granting the prayer of the petition. He should vote for going into the consideration of the Ques- tion as soon as possible. Mr. MATTHEW MONTAGUE regretted the ahs- nre of that powerful voice which was accustomed to address them with such force and eloquence- on this subjsCt. His reajon for not agreeing in the resolution of the Right H in. j Gentleman on the 8 » or, wis a conviction that the measure i he would propose would not answer the purposes of conci- ! liatio'i. The Catholics had now declared, that nothiug lint ' uncondiriois d e- nancipation would content rhern. He would i ask. the Hous*, whether, after granting this measure, they i must not proceed to eq- i llizii al! rights— whether th- y must nor repeil the Test Ads ? It must appear, from the cheer- ing of the Gentlemen themseL- es. that they were ah ue to pa « s it itnon the hrnad bssis of right He did not onW de - plor » the loss of the talents of his l ite Rl^ ht Hon. Fr end, but the vigorous spi ' it and determin. ir. ion which mnrked his character; and regretted there had b- en a string of conces- sions from the present Minister". He b- lieved, that conces- sion, in the pres- rnt case would lead.' o a d- man l for e jtiali- ; 5 zation of property, an. l that the same course as was adopted in France, would follow here, if the principle of inn- jvation |: was once admitted. He should vote agaiuit the motion. Mr P AR. NRL stated, that tiiere were bur three points ' in which th- Pope exercise ! any power in Irelind: tint of m . r- ia^ e—" hat of appeals in cases ut dispu. e netween the Catholic Clergy, and that of appointing Bishops— all of which had fallen greatly into disuse If any evil arose ' from the unconditional grant, Parl'ament might take the measures which were necessarv ; and he was sure that if Catholics were admitted into Parliament, those who were liktlly to be returned would be the first to join in such mea- ures Mr. WII. BRAHAM BOOTLK declared his intent on to vote for the Motion of his Right Hon. Friend, but would not pledge himself to any further step. He hoped that some- thing would be done to relieve that estimallln cliis of men, the Eng'ish Catho'ics Sir JOHN NICHOt. L said, he should join the Rijht Hon Gentlenvn ou th- floor ( M-. - ecretarv Ryder) in giv- i- isr his ' incere and decided opinion oil this object. He would allretV, that if pali. ical power could be gran ed to the Catholics, with safety to the constitution, it ou^ ht to be granted ; but the safety of that constitution was of a para- mount iuiporrance, an. i the house ' could uot w: th propriety advance a s n- I- step without insuring that safety, lu what m inner, he v. ju d nk, « nid th - Res du- iotl be necessary ."' Could not art individual compel the House » t any time to consider the question! After debating it year after, year w, i* it now necessity to pledge themselves to it', consideri- tioo • The resolo ion eonld in fa « 3 he only necessary with this view, tt> delude the House wirh a pledge to ulterior nv.- awes. In all the discu- s ons' whi h had dready taken place, it ne- r- r was disclosed what the securities should be that Win'. d accompany the conces- io*-'. Those Gentlemen who said that we ought to ro icede without hnvration, spoke a nt iin lingua re, hot a lan^ u^ ge that raigl t ead to a Catho- lic establishment ill Ireland, and even to a Catholic monarch on thejthr » ne; wrapping up the matter in such mystery, ron- d- red iiirn susp- c'ous until rh y were dise'n^ td. The Right Hon. Gentleman himself did not seem to think they w- te likely to- be satisfactory; t'- « y would operate as a surprise to both parties. After the list resolution of the Cath lies, it was impossible to expeif that this w mid lead to a concilia- tion. If this was no longer to be a Government qutt'ion, the more was it for individual* to exerc- e care and cau'ion. Was it fair towards the Catholics themselv » s to excite hopes in them which must he disappointed? If they wou d sitis'y Parliament that conces- ions could be made with safety, it was calumny to th- Ho'i- « to say tint ' hey were unwilling to extend it. He felt it his duty to . tive the motion The CHANCELLOR of th- FN .. IEQUF. R declared his intention to vote for the resolution ot the Right Honour- able G ntleman ( Mr. Canning) in the same sense in which his Hon. Friend had done, without pledging hi: nselr to any future measure Something, he h-. ped, might be done, but what it would be he could not now say. As to the charge of vacillation against the Government, he knew of no o'her measures that were given up than the re- olution re- specting the barracks, tile allowance to the Private Hec- e- tary of hi « Royal Highness the Prince Recent, and the im- portant question of the Orders in Council On this subjeCt • — • • : i :. - L of the Orders in Council, it should be recollcded that the late lamented Chancellor of the Exchequer had made Urge concessions. ' There w. sno other ground of charge against the present Government, than they had shewn a disposition jf to ait up to their own judgment. On the question before them he should sat, that though he supported the Resolu- tion, he did not do so upon the grounds or arguments ad- vanced by the Right Honourable G ntleman. The Right Honourable Gentleman seemed to think there was no mid- dle course: at present there was not, but time was the great innovator; it produced changes everyday, and was' leading the Catholics towards'the full accomplishment of their wishes, which nothinz couid impede so much as any violence 0: 1 their pirt. Before anv change of sysrem could be spccess'ully attempted, they ought to observe the changes which had taken place in the Catholic Church itself, and the destruClion that had spread as well over the ecclesi st. cal as the political state of Europe Ail tliey knew of the Pope was, he was the first Bishop of the French Empire, and there Could he little doubt that the successor of t he Pope would be the mere nhminee of Bonaparte There were in- ternal changes 111 the body of the Catholics of Ireland, which led to hopes of a favourible issue: th » y were daily advanc- ing in knowledge and inqu'ry, and in proportion as they adopted the tiible lor their rule of conduCl, did the pr » » peCl of conciliation appear. Mr. BUNKS dweit at some length on the change which had lately taken place in the opinions of bath Houses ot Parliament 011 the subjedt He shi. ild go into the conrrda- ratioti of it, he hoped, without prejudice. He should must upon ample securities, securities as full is any th. it wire vested in any other Crown; the most ample that history could furn sh, were those which he expeded, and would ex- a< 2 He always thought, and he thought still, that the un- fortunate measure 01 the Union threw a great bar in the way of farther c- » nce « mns to the Catholics He hoped, however, that rhe difficulties thence arising would not prove insuperable. One of the chief obstacles to the measure pro- posed was ( unfortunately) removed and in another S. ssion, knewing the entiments of their constituents on the suhjeCl, it might be hoped they would be able to come to some » atis- faCtory and practical conclusions. If his R. I.. ir Hon. Friend, or any other Hon. Member could bring forward a plan, em bracing the three objeCls which he had stated himself to have in view, it w uld meet with his ( Mr. B.%) support. Mr. GKATI'AN expressed his entire accordance with the Right Hon. Ge tieman who had spoken las: but ^ pe ( ihe Chimce ior ot th^ Exchequ - r), as to the propriety 0! the course which the present Min- t. r h d adapted, and as to the mode 111 which concession was to be nu. Je. He admitted that before all su^- Cts, as weli as religion, time was a m- sst important ingredient; and th t which was im- proper at one time, might uot only be pro] « r, but absolutely necessary, at another. With respect to t u Catholic ques- tion, persons of the mo. t respeCt ble characters, and ot the 1 best understanding had Changed their sentiments, and had ' dons so upon a full consideration of the subjetf, from a change in th circumstances of the country, from the temper of the people, and fron the exigencies of the State. If Ministers 01 the Crown had shewn a di- position to change their minds, he would not call it a victory which the Hou- e had gained ovef them, but a vi& ty which hey had gained over themselves — fHtir, Hen !). Observing this change, which he, as well as every man it t rested in the great Cause of the Catholics, must hail with the strongest leelmgt of delight, he did h » pe that his Hon. Frien . ( Gen. Matthew) would not press the Hou. e to a division on his Amendment. At an earlier period ot the Session the question of the pen- al laws was, after a full consideration, negatived by the House he wished it were potsible that the House were now willing to go again into that question ; but since they were not, he would not objeCt to th « Resolution wh. ch had been propc-- j ed. the Mo'ioi of tha Right Hon. Oentlemin ( Mr. Can- ning) was a motion of concord, tn etpre- s th- def - rnvnition Ij of the House to re- consider the Petitions " f the - Roman Citholics It was a motion to d- clare the determinition of |: Parliament to consider what could be done with a view to udju tment, and with a vi- w conssientiously, to inquire what course could be pursued to meet the prayers of the Petitioners, without putting the Church in dsng- r That was. to consider the wishes of the pennle, an I to have their Petitions examine !, with a view to reconcile all differences, without danger to the Ch ir th. Upon What principle the Resolution cotlld be obj; Cted to, he felt himself at a loss to conceive It w is, as he said be- fore, a Resolution of concord— a Reso'ution which contained i declaration of the People Of England, or love and c- irdia lity towards tile People of Ireland, provided those feelings crtlild be entertained without danger to the Constitution. Such a Resolution would have 3 material effect ot! the minds of the people of Ireland • and he hid no douht, when or. ee the discussion was allowed to be brought forward, svlthour auy oif those prejudices which had hitherto existed, that those who had heretofore been the srrongt? « t opponents trf the m » 3- sOre, would he comn- ll - d tn acknowledge the identity of the interest of the two countries. A variety of fcir'cumstinces had combined to render the present measure not alone prac- ticable, but acceptable to the people of this country— Many of those ha- ri - rs which had hitherto rendered an acquies- cence in feeling irrecnnrlleaMe, were now removed. an 1 the people of th- two countries were more disposed - o a rnr'ial co- operation in tho- e measures which were essential to the character and independence of both. This wis a change which is by no mearts extraordinary, an. l in the natural course of events was to be firmly anticipated, to the Irish Parlia- ment one Sessions, he wai one of tWeaty. fi ve wh > supported the Catholic claims, and in the neir. Sessions he was one of the whole House that voted for the very sapie Petitions. This change, however, was not to be attributed to any invi- dious mot ves. but to political circunntanc - s— r . r that which in the first instance would have been te. nerity, was wisdom in the second. With respect to the situation of Hi* Majes- ty , s Ministers, supposing the question rd he carried, though not responsible for the introduction of the Motion if the House agreed to it, they would be responsible for its failure. It would, therefore, he their imperious duty not ' o interpose any thing artificial, or call for any security which was not necessary or jost.— They should also he extremely careful not to encourage any Protestant alarm in rhis c^ tf'ty. In again takoig rh- Catho'ic claims into consid- rarion, h- hOr- — d His Maje-' y's Ministers lit whatever way th- y rpighr feel d r. p ised to enerr their influence, would not gi hack to past disputts, but go on in the fair and liberal discuss: on o' those obj ciions which wtre in existence. The Catholics caul I have no mtercs- in utide- mining the Protestant Church: on the con- rary, they mu- t fret that the common interest of the community, as well as the dictates of common sense, wonld ; » ul them to support a system in which their own welfare was so materially conenrned — In conc'usion, the Rijht Hon, Gentleman observed, that he had given notice of his inten- tion, and that intention he had not abandoned, of moving for a Committee, or a Bill lor the Repeal of tho Penal Laws. This, he wa< convinced, would be much better If It was taken into the hands of Ministers, and he begged to assure them, that he would mos' heartily give up his intention to them, if they would pursue the same court?, in whioh he should not oitlv be ex'remely happy, but very willing to support them — I'He. ir, Lnr .') Lord CAS TLliRCAGH complimented tie Is* speaker oil his taWnrs and exertions, and still more on the tone of that speech wlnth they had just heard. It was for them chat H'ght to discharge their duty, by stating the grounds upon which they voted, that they might hereafter come to the ducjissUin of the subjeCt with as little misunder tanding on any part of it as poui'ole. For himself he had to say, that if lie wore uot that night to concur in the motion of the Right Hon Gentleman, his conduCt won d work an abandonment of those principles which he had always avow- ed, and which had unitormly r « gu tied h « crnirtu $. Feehng, as he aiway* had, the neces ity of endeavouring to admit the Cat ohes into the Constitution, when the diffi- u'ties which hed opposed that measure were lessened or removed, when the temper of the Catholics, and the circumstance » f the t m s, would, in his opinion, justify its b- ing attempted to be dune : if 110 one cite h? d, taken up iM sn'- jeft, he him- self would have felt it his duty' to bring it forward —! Hear, bear, bear.) The obstacles which had formerly stood in its way were such, that in his opinion to bring it forward could hare but the eff..- Ct of injuriot- sly agitating the mind. Those obstacles, to which he particularly alluded, existed no longer. The unfortunate situation of the King, and after the time which had elap. ed, there was, at pr- ienf, between Parlia- ment and the Executive Power ao bhjedioa to the measure. He agreed with tile Right Hon Gentleman, that what had taken place in the course, of the Session, evinced a disposi- tion, on the p / t of Parli . ment, to enter into a con. ideration of the subject, which did not appear berore; and this went to prove, that the. time was come, when it was almost im- possible lor auy Government to pause on the propriety of taking it into consideration. He wished to be understood, that he only expressed his own individu d sentiments, as the other Meuibers of . the Cabinet had done theirs; and he trusted, the lit. e he took, on the present occasion, would be found consist- lit with what he had frequently stated, that though from the circumstances of the time., he was obl ged to resist it then, he was still Iriendly to the measure.— Eefore the Union he had had it in his mind that the pro- greis of circumstances would have a tendency to introduce the Cathol cs into the constitution, ev- n if Ireland had- re- mained a separate country, and this had been witn him one inducement to press the Union, which he trusted wool I prove a measure of conciliation and mutual advantage. He then noticed that anomaly in the constitution which was presented by the situation of the English Catholics, whose jtonduCl had been to unexceptionable, that it had never sub- jeCied them even to the least charge of imprudence, yet they were not only labouring Under all the ditabilities com plained of by tne Catholics of Ireland, but they were ex- posed to the penal laws, the operation of which was such, chat the humanity of th » times would not ttiffer them to be enforced. Ween he looked on this, he had always felt that the Constitution could uot rest securely, till some alteration was eff- ied. This struck him the more forcibly, when he considered that ill Scotland a Catholic might fill the highest 111 the State, while their situition was such as he had offices described in England. Feeling that the Constitution could not rest to, he looked forward to the - Virion as to that which might accelerate the means of eff. Cling a change, and it was now for them to make the b- st use of the situations in which they were placed. He had, however, never looked forward to a concession of the Catholics ciamn as a measure that could be either wise or politic, unl ss it were . - c mipan etl with safeguards, which would sulfi.' iently gu irantee the safety of the Constitution. With respeCt to the securities netissary to be g ven, he had never looked to any that we it to impose any thing at variance with the principles of their religion ; he had never wished for any conc ssions that would degraJe them, or that were not at valuable to be conceded by them as to be receiv j by the Prute t ints. He had wished lor no securiries which the Catholics Ind not recog- nised in other cou. atnet, as compatible with the principles of their religion.— He had wished to follow the example of our Catholic ancestors, in the meastiret they took tor guard ing against the effeCts of foreign influence. As to what had been said of the Pope, he would tay that, however teeble he might be in the hands of ihe Tyrant oi France,' he would be formidable in England, and still more so in Ireland, It had been raid that the Pope had not nomi- nated an. Irish Catholic bishop lor a considerable number of years. He doubted the correfiaees of this statement, but if it were eorreCI, it was to be remembere 1 that if that con- cealed for were allowed, he might nominate every Irish Bishop. The See of Rome, at at present existing, and like- ly to exist, might give Bonaparte an opportunity of giving the Papal dignity to Cardinal Fe- ch. What influence might he Hot gain by such means in Ireland ? He could not be more aware of die dinger on thi. head than the Right Hon. lientleinin ( Mr. Otattan) himself, as he had 00 a. former occasion, when he brought forward the question ou the Ca- tholic claims, stated it to be essential to the security of tli « empire, that we should be properly guarded Sgsiost . the ef. leits of foreign intiu nee in Ireland. He did not say th- it the existence of foreign influence should exclude them Worn the Constitution, but thit he said, that when they were ad- mitted to the Constitution they ou^ ht to unite with ut ill protecting it ag'aiust all foreign enemies. He wish- ed them to subscribe to nothing tt> which they had HOI al- ready subscribed iu other countries In Spain, as Jiad been^ tited by an Hin.

He thought w: rh * h » Catholics in Ireland, there might to e- nsr no conh- Ct'. on which was not avowed and notorious. H^ wishtd whit parsed between them tn be public, ti guf- d agiimt the suspicion any secret foreign influence. He wishel th- Houi- to imdtr- s'ao l. that he ha I thought of requiring no securities which the Catholics had liot g: v- n in oth - r countries to guard against a foreign s » cref influence, which they knew might be abused. He had no objedion to vol- f() r the mtition in itslargest tensei and no objection to the Catholics being ad- mitted to the fullest participation in the Constinltiou pro- vided the requisite securities were given. The benefits which wou'd result from their being admitted into the Con- stitution would consist in th- ir feeling the- n elves placed a footing of equal ly with, their Prorttstaqt brethren, feeling that tKe Catho'ics wou'd rio longer he d ingerous to the Protestants, ' If it were not don-, the Question must be ex- peCted to come before them year affpr year, till the Pro- testants and Catholic" w » re settled on a footing of political equ ility He had no hesitation in warmly concurring with the Resolution, and with the proposition for a final adjust- ment of the Citho'ic Claims. He only desired tSat adequate regulations mig'ut be made, and this done, he w. as willing td concede all they asked. He had no objection to thr second resolution of the Right Hon. Oentlem an, which went to lay the resolution then unler consideration before the Prince Regent, if it went no further; but if it was meant to advise the Cmwn to dire< S Ministers to bring forward a measure in conformity with the wish of that . resolution, tie could not agret to it. ft would be a hard task to impose upon a Government, to traoie a measure according to the id- as of an individual, under such circumstances as they would he called upon to fame one under, if they w* re c< lled upon in the pre- sent instance. H- did not mean that Government would not take the suSjeCt into their consideration, hut to frame a measure like that proposed, and under circumstances like the. il present; he did not conceive was a fair duty to impose upon' any Government He knew of no disposition in any quarter of the Administration to make it a Cabinet question. Every one rook that part which his own judgment dictated. He Should Ire glad if things were in such a state thar it could be so taken up; but where there was such a variety of opi- nions on the . subject, he could not think the Government would be likely to carrv it so far as an individual. All he C'tttld say was, that ho'ding those opinions whi.- h he had en- tertained ever since the Union, which were on record, and which he had never had any disposition or occasion to change, he was most anxious in his individual capacity to exert himself In or otir Of Parliament, in any way which night give the Catholics that which they claimed, provided the measure could be accompanied by those securities which the Protesrants had a right to expect. Such a measure would be most beneficial in establishing the authority of the Go- vernment of Ireland, and that it was impossible that the Ca- tholic interest would make them act together as all dissen- ters did, and as it was in nature for them to do; still he thought it ljerter that they should act withm the Constitu- tion than out of it — Upon the whole, the question was not free from constitutional danger, and though it might be dif. ficult to devise adequate securities, still, in the present state of the Catholic mind, and in the present state of Papal power, it would be welt to look at the difficulties which opposed themselves to the measure; g » t over them if they could, and if they could not, at least get so near the diffictiltie « as to be able to state in Parliament, where the measure " hitched," and that ascertained, if the obstacle! were inseparable, it would be seen that Parliament had do » e what they C . uld ; and then he should hope, with that knowledge the public would be satisfied, and the question settled, and set at re » t. Hav- ing thus expressed his sentiments, he had onY to say, that the reason he had not dotie « o before, was, that difficulties were in the way, which, in his opinion, rendered the agita- tion of the subject improoer ; those difficulties removed, he was as anxious for an enquiry into the claims of the Catho- lics • » any one Mr. TIERNEY said, that if be rightly understood the Noble Lord, after twelve years, during which his opinions had been in complete abeyance, or conflicting with them- selves, he had now returned to the sentiments he professed at the period of the Union, ( Hear!)— What he had been urging for the last quarter of an hour none would dispute, and r. one but the Noble Lord would have thought it ne- cessary to st « te— From the speech just delivered, he ( Mr Tiernev) augured very ill of the final success of the cause, since, whatever impression circumstances might have mide upon the House, it was quire clear that no impression had been made upon the Government. He objeded to th- A- snendment of the gallant General, only h- cause it would not be carried, and whatever injury it might do the cause, he f » lt comnelled to say, that he, should vote for the original Motion of Mr. Canning, because itp! e'lgc> Par! iam? nt upon the subjeCt of the Catholic Claims. By this declaration he niiirht deter many Gentlemen from supporting the Resolu- tion by their votes, but frankness and common honesty de- manded it. But how did the matter stand with regard to the Ministers of the country, as they termed themselves? The Resolution now proposed was to be passed by the Par- liament, was to he approved by the highest authority in the kingdom, and yet these Ministers confessed themselves so weak, imbt- cile, and inefficient, that they were unable and unwilling to carry into effeCt that which, as the Govern- ment, they were bound to accomplish — VHear, bear, bear.) Such were the Ministers that at this crisis were placed at the head of affairs! He believed the Noble Lord sincere, when he stated that he wis^ e I the measure to be carried ; but he saw no reason to think that the Noble Lord would endeavour to influence others, or would risk his own situa- tion for the sake of attaining ir. He had, it was true, spoken as usual on both sides of the question, but ha f concluded by supporting the Resolution. His hew coadjutor had confess- ed that the time for concession was arrived— yet the Go- vernment was to do nothing • All men in the kingdom, except the Ministers, had made up their minds upon the subjeCt. What was the caute of this ditsent ? Why were not the Catholic Claims to be made a Government ques- tion ? The Noble Lord had supplied the clue to guide men out of the labyrinth, when he declared that the truth was, that 110 Government cou d be formed in these timet hostile to concession.—{ Hear, bear, bear ) An Honourable Friend ( Mr. B Hikes) had stated, that time would pioduce most wonderful changes It was true that the lap e of years might do something, but the alteration that h id been produced in the Cabinet by the lapse of a tingle month wai wonderful indeed!—{ Hear, bear !)—- Un- der tuch distentions, who, upon this S'lhj Ct were tn be the advisers of the Regent ?

Friend ( Tierney) had successfully exposed not only the itri- hecility, But the insincerity of Ministers. He was astonish- ed that any man could be diverted, by the declarations of an angry meeting * t Dublin, from giving doe weight td the forcible, and, he should think, irresistible arguments of the Right Hon. Gentleman, Who had so ably and eloquently brought forward the present Motion, considering that it was itl the power of Parliiment to accompany the measure, when it should ultimately be granted, with such pledget, as they shoald chuse. Since the death of Mr. Perceval, he ( Mi- W.) could not help remarking, that Ministers had yielded et: ry point. The minor points they might have yielded io th » wishes of the people; but the major points they had con- ceded, n » r. in the spirit of magnanimity hut of pusillanimity; they were beaten by the People and Parliament, but they had not been able to gain the victory over themselves, " the Noble Lord ( Castlereagh) said lie was for the Resolution moved by the Right Hon. Gentleman ( Canning), hut, it a Minister, that he wpuld not act in such a manner as to g. ve effect to it. The Chancellor of the Exchequer w it of i n- milar lilind. Then came a Right Hon Gentleman, ( Bo- thutrt), who . it was understood was to be in the Cabinet, and he had said that- he should vote against the Resolution What an uneasy summer must these men have together! For he hoped the Right Hon. Gentleman would follow up his Resolution, by moving that it be presented to the Prince ; and he thought it impossible, after a question of such im- portance was'subrfiitted to the Prince Regent, that his Mi- nistert should not advise him to follow up such a recom- mendation. He should not detain the House froth the tri- umph of this day. On the head 6f his Right Hon. Friend ( Grattar.) must rest and accumulate all the glory and hon- ours of the victory. By the Right Hon Gentleman ( Can. nifg) had the immediate srami been mad,-; hut to his Ri$ flt Hon. Friend ( Grattan) must attach the ultimate glory. Mr. CANNING said, he rose with no disposition to avail himself of the privilege of a reply ; but there ware » very few observations which he deemed it necessary for hint to in ike, in consequence of what had fallen from some Hon. Members on the stibjeCt of his motion. He paid ^ very handsome'compliment to the eminent abilities 01 M-. Grattant and declared he should be happy to comign tha business to his hand". At the same time he niu- t confess, that however he might favourably view their being placed in so safe " a deposit, he w ould rather wish to see them in the hands of the Executive Government, as it wduld be in their power to give the most satisfactory conclusion to the tnbjeCt. He complimented the candid and liberal manner hi w.' uch the Noble ( Lord Castlereagh) had entertained th- [< roposi- ti » n which he had submitted td the House, and wis severe on the argument used by Mr. Bathurst. That Rl?' ht Hon, Gentleman had taid his motion was iru. le and - Undigested, but how watitso? Was the principle of it obscure? He hoped and trusted it was not. What had this Home been at for the last three years? They had freq iflutly discu> Sed the sub- je& and had alwayt greatly differed. To reconcile thott differences, or to draw thena within a narrow compass would be highly desirable. The presen- retalutiou was not meant to overturn the Protestant Ettiblubm--. it, but to strengthen it by admitting within iti participation of the . principles of the Constitution, all tho « e wlm had hitherto been excluded from it. If the Right H « n Gentleman sup- posed, that he ( Mr. Canning) had any views which he h « i not explained, let hira maintain tharri. He hope. l. Jiowevor, the House would take the motion at it stood, and not be led astr. y by such argunntits at had been adduced by th* Right Hon. Gentlemin. If the House only carried the question to far at ro declare | they would take into consideration on next Session, it would j be impossible, the- Executive Government should be out of I that . question. You might at well contend, that in speak. ; ing 01 the Duke, of Marlborough, you could forget he wa$ ' a General; and it would be much ir. the same strain of ar- gument to say, that the only recrst in which this Reviluti- ; on could r. » t be known Was his Majesty's Cabinet, lo the Resolution he was determined to persevere. - He had thought oi moving, that it be taid before the Printe Regtut as si.,, 11 as Carried 1 but it had bsev sin< e suggs- tted to him, by m.. k- ing it go hand in Hand with a Resolution of the House of Lords on the same svbjrA : he wished, therefore, to follow the mode adopted in the question of the Slave Trade, and wou < 1 iu com qnence alter hit resolution so as to obtain the concurrence ol the Lordt, before it thould b « presented to the Prince.

On Wednesday evening between nine and ten O'clock, as JOHN RUTHEHFORD, of this town, w S returning from NewtOwnbreda, he was attacked at the tnd of the new brid^*, near Ormem, by three lj foot- pads, who rushing out of the Plantation, knock- R ed hitti down and robbed him of his Pocket- book, in 11 which were Bank Notes to the amount of £ 41 : 2: 9, with several Accounts, & C The villajhs were pro- ceeding to take Rutherford's watch, when recollect- ing a knife in his pocket, he drew it out and stabbed one of the robbers in the left side. This Circumstance j it is hoped will lead to their detection, and for which purpose a reward of TWENTY GUJNKAX will be paid for apprehending and prosecuting any of the robbers to conviction ; and any private information on the subject will be very handsomely rewaujed, a; id the informer's name, if required, kept sco ut.
