AT a - augment:ars and 'ratan respectable MEETING of PROTESTANT DI;SENTERS of variour denomina tions, and other IRIBNDSto gßucnous LIBERTY, residing in different "paratof the United Empire, livid at the London Ta vern, Bishopegate-etreet, on•the iath of May, 1611, SAMVEL MILLS, Esq. Chairman, The following Resolutions were agreed to t—r . I. That this Meeting beheve - that there are at least two mil licMs of Protestant Dheentetts in the Kingdom of England and AVales; including persons of opulent fortunes, high literary at tteinments, and active benevolence; th at their exertions have hontrakieed to prentibte Industry, knowledge, gOod morals, social order, and public prosperity; that they are hot interim' to any fellow subjects in fervent love tp their country, nor in ardent loyalty to their venerable Sovereign, whose tart promise to A's eaeselkyk Titt.T6Lill4TION ACT INTIOLATe, hat made an indelible Impression on their hearts, and that any means whiah Wight itchy' their diseenteit and enfeeble their attachment, would thereforeut any time; and especially at this period, be in s:Consistent with the net ional interest and with wise and liberal policy. 2. 'Mat although this Meeting consider the tight to Worship Cott according to indittidual judgment as en inalienable right, loperiot to-aU social Regulations; and although they -have lung anticipated a period when all Penal Laws for wortshipping•Geo Iktbrding to their consciences would be abolished, they have 'been unwilling to agitate the public mind for the utalninent of their hopes, and presuming that no person wouldin this age ven ture to assail the .1c: of Toleration, after the ever memorable declaration of the King, they have been content to regard it with grateful emotions, and to esteem it wan effectual protection from the tecurrence of forms+ persecutions. 3. That the persons assembled at this Meeting have received With great anxiety the teohintupicatiens frequently made by the Right Hon. Lord Viscount Sidmouth, of .his intention to pro pose legislative Enactments intitferinrwith the laws relating to Protestant Dissenters; that they did hope the applications he has received, and the information communicated, would have pre vented his perseverance ; but they have learned the disappoint ment of their hopes, and have ascertained the provision of the Bill which be has at length introduced into Parliament with ex treme regret; and with mantel apprehenition. 4. Thas this Bill declares that all the provision relating to Dissenting Ministers contained in the Toleration Act, and In the subsequent Act fur their further relief, were intended to be husked only to Ministers of separate Congregation., and enacts, J. That such Ministers, upon being admitted to the peaceable possession and enjoyment of the peace of Ministers of separate Congregation, may, on a certificate in writing, under the hands of 'okra! substantial and reputable Householders belonging to such Congregation, signed in the presence of some. creditable witness, who is to make proof or their signatures u p on oath at a General Sessions of the Peace, be permitted to take oaths and to sign the Declarations previously required, and • shall then, and then only, during their continuance to be Minis/Ors of such sepa rate Ctingregation, be entitled to all the privileges atid etempriotts• which the former Acts had conferred. id That any other per son who may desire to qualify himself to preach as a Dissenting Minister, must prekure several substantial and reputable house holders, being Dissenters of the same Sect, and of the saute Con gregation, to certify on their conscieFees, in writing, to his being a Protestant Dissenting Minister of their Sect, and of the same Congregation, and to their individual and long knowledge to hi* sobriety of conversation, and to his ability and fitness to preach; and that such Certificate must be proved as before stated, before , he be permitted to take the oath and subscribe the declaration before he be exempt from the pains, penalties and punishments to which he would otherwise be liable as a Dissenting Minister. And 3. That any person of sober life and conversation admitted to preach on probation to any separate Congregation must pro duce a Certificate from several Dissenting Ministers, who have taken the oath (to be also proved on oath at a General Sessions) of his life and conversation, and to their lone previoAlmowledge, before he can be admitted to tate the Oaths and subscribe the Declaration, and that he may theti, during a limited togiod, to be sper.iied in the Certificate, officiate as a probationer to any Dist salting Congregation, and be. during limited period, exempt front prosecution and punishment; bat neither of the t'*b last --meted chisor rumor 101 Fir *NO**, pitvecosip ipt to the exemptions from offices conferred on Dissenting Minister $ by the Toleration Act. ' X, That the principle assumed as the foundation of the Bill is incorrect.. That the 'foleration Act authorised any persons • to become Dissenting Ministers, who conceived themselves tel be called and qualified to preach, upon givng srcitrity tcrthe State for their Loyalty and Christian Principles, by taking cer tain Oaths, and by subscribing certain Declare/ens, and not only prevented their prosecution under Laws made in times lest favourable to civil and religious liberty, but conceiving their labours to be of public utility, ,granted to them exemptions from all parochial offices and other duties which. might inter fere with their more Important exertions—that such CQUE cuction of the Oath of Toleration has been sanctioned by the general' practice of a century, and has never been impugned by city deci sion in a superior Copt of Law; and that it evert such construc tion be inco -rect, and lemislative exposition be required, such de claratory Bill ought to follow thelntention of the only Act whirls has subsequently passed; and should extend, and nut contract protect, and not impair the relief aZorded by the former ancieat and venerable statute, 6. the Bill introduced into Parliament is not j!:tt:iled by any necessity, and will be highly injurious; that It is unnecessary because the evils presumed to result front the abuses of the ex. isting laws by few persons who may have improperly taken the oaths required from Dissenting Preachers and Tea c hers, do not exisflutltaa. most Inconsider able extent, and because the exten sion of all such abuses has ln-eu anxiiiisly and wowid_lhesifecs tually discountenanced by every class of Protestant Dissentrts b and thee It must Le injurioni,Jaeuause it will introduce forms un precedented, inconvenient, or hnpracticabte—will render itita4- rant Preachers, Students of Divinity, Ministers on Probation, and many persons 'to whose ardent piety and disinterested lahours multitudes are indebted for Religious Instruction, liable to serve all Civil Office.; and will expose all Ministers or the witnesses to the Certificates to be harrassed by repeated attendances at dir. ferenr Sessions, and to capricious eraminations andounlitnited ex. • pence, because by limiting the right of persons to become Dia senting Ministers in obedience to their consciences, it will ins. pose new restrictions on toleration, and because it will create a precedent for future attempts at - even more dangerous or fatah experiments against religious liberty, ... 7. That although most reloc:ant to interference with political affairs, they therefore cannot regard the present attempt with out peculiar sensations of alarm, and that veneration for their ancestors, regard to their posterity, respect for rights which they can never abandon, aaa the sacycd obligations which they feel, will therefore compel them to diwegard all doctilusi and actual distinctions, and to unite, by every legitimate effort, to prevent the pending BM from passing into a Law, and to oppose the , smallest diminution of the privileges sepured by the Ira of To leration. 8.
