laftficirsthere were considerable numbers of itetions . been coned to quit Ireland, and who were ac-, flatulent irreconcileable,and inveterate hatted "against English connectwn. With these elements of , 'hostility teady to combine and break out in action whenever a tavourable opportunity shou:d occur. he •woulf ask, if it was wise to leave the population of Ire land in a state of organized dissatisfaction williEng' • land? He felt ia his conscience that the connexion of •beland with this country could not be securely pre served if telief to the 'Catholics were longer delayed. Mr. G. MOORE then rose to address the House, but his introductory observations were inaudible from the " jut w h i ch Prevailed in the House. He stated that the arguntentsathe Right Hon. Gentleman who had pse• ceded him were intended to establish two propositions —the one, that the Catholics were entitled to their de minds by the Treaty of Limerick; the other, that the faith of this country was pledged to the granting of those demands by the Union. Alter showing that the .Treaty•of Limerick was never considered to hear the construction now put upon it by the other side, down to the discussions of 1782 and 1783, the ,Honourable Member proceeded to refute the al gumt-nts drawn front the proceedings on the Union. The pledge given by the Government at that time was not a pledge to fur ther the accomplishment of Catholic Emancipation, but only to give additional facilities to its discussion— (Cries of Hear, and a laugh (tom the uppotite side.) — He heard a diet: of dissent lions Gentlemen opposite, but he would trier to the authority quoted by the Bight •Hon. Gentleman—he would icier to the ovoids o; Mr. Pitt to show that he not only did not plenge himselt to the cat tying of that measure, hut did not contemplate anything further •than what he had stated. The lion. . I .lembet then read a passage fr o m Mr. Pitt's spee:h in telly to Mr. Fox, On the 13th of May, 1805, wlieh, alter "limning that subsequent to the Union he saw the subject in a different light, proceeded to say that he did not make r distinct pledge; that on the contrary, he t e -1 eyed the line of argument he took was this—that it it should altetwards be thought that this boon might he given to the Catholics, (her. at would be better given after the Union was effected; or it it should be thought pro per to ranee giving it, it might then be better setused. He (Mr. Moore] would now able the !louse whether he had nut tedeemed his pledge of proving, upon Mi. Prays own audio. sty th it Iv only contemplated the effect of the Union upon this qiiestion ay giving additional f.s• cilities to its dit.cussion ?—(Loud dices s.) —I t appeared also front the letters which had be-is published. that Ahem was an-impiession upon the Ro) al mind at that day that the Union uould put a close to the importu wines with which that guts ion beset it. lu one of his • Majesty's letters that impress on was declared in the following words t—" What occasioned my inclination • to 'Le Um. n was my bel.ef that the separation of the two Chinches would for ever shut the door against 'slither measures of concession to the Roman Catho lics." Was it possible, alter thi-, to say that the Union was considered by the Government as a 'pledge that Catholic Emancipation. should follow ? .--(Cheers.)—Toe honourable Baronet had spoken of the hallow' and glorious achievements of their Ca tholic ancestors. He had always felt that no part of their glory shone with blighter splendour than their resistance to Papal encroachment, and their refusal to acknowledge any intei (ciente, temporal or spiiitual in the exercise of their political si 6 lita—(Hear, hear). He tau the tame spun in the Act of SAtlement at the Re volution, and he thttelore tegaided it as one of the la. meat bulwarks of out civil lights. In that Act was. established as "at leading and decided -principle t • ex clude Roman Catholics Irons a ll s ome in the Govern. surto, Legislative or Executive. They had been ex chided from the Legislature before, but the Act of Sei• •lenneist excluded them alike from the Coats and all tither offices in the State. He had alway 'considered the •subject of the Coronation o.th to be oree of a delicate na.ure, and did nt.t much rest item: the arguments founded upon it. But so long as :he Act oh Final Settle •tneest was deemed necessary to be preserved. and while the King ,by its premiums was pet/tined (runt marrying a Catholic, so lung . mu it raise toile of the strongest talmudic% agaiteit the admission or Catholics to vowel. Where it was cfinsidertel sufficient to Wien the Kni t , o y an oath to support the Beetestseit Establishment, but -also to provide that his nearest and dearest cuonexion should tiecesaarily be of that persuasion, how was it to be said that any oath would he a sufficient security in the admission of Ca tholics themselves to office? It thew s then, were the übjec . t Wins to the granting of Catholic Emancipation, let him take ' leave to examine the grounds upon winch that measure was • demanded at their bawds. He sound that demand made upon two gel Brat grounds—the one, expediency ; the other, an as. lotrtiltil that the cot:maim would not be dangerous to the Pro 'te.tant listablhbowitt. In the fit it place, be felt an objec tion to admitting the argument sit expediency upon' a question' utst such great national importance. It was not only cape. ithency, but necessity. which must be proved to make bun give op a rest public prisicipie. Such a principle he considered telt to be, end he was certainly nut preparei to sacrifice it -to the shallow aiguntent of expediency. Thee fame the arguttiew of danger ; and au his opinion there was no question upon which the -public mind of lenglaud had bete% open to so touch delusion in this .fr+ptct, as iu the uric then beiure the Muse: Ile denied that the d.s turbid state ut lithend was cesmiected with this question. Ile would "Itt.t pass such a libel upon the Catholicilotly 36 to attribute to them the etistruce of that sanguitiary Association which desolated the south ut lrelaud. Gould 1.. .suppose that the efforts eif the Catholics them selves would he wanting to put down outrage, which tendered Isle and property equally in-retire? it had been the boast of the no mats Catholic Gently, and of that body which assumed the repre *iientatiou of helium!, that it was their object to put do •• it the out . one.. to which he hail ailuded. Was it then to the peasantry of Ire land that they were to look fur danger ? He knew the peasantry of Itelatial. He bed been fur years its habits of bstercuterse with them, andknew their natural disposition to industry and good conduct : and be was satisfied there was not a more hospitable, brave, and gem rats race on the lace of the earth. He knew wall that great Fer min was now yawing, and that it was excited by the inflamma tory bararigues at the meetings at the Catholic Body. Ile was not iusensible to the danger that must 'poem from this source, if such a body was allowed to continue its work of agitation and disordet. He should not ham alluded to this subject at ail if it had nut beet, ,rested epos by the night lion. Geodeman opposite as a powerful argument in favour of the motion. What was the amount it that ar gon.ent, but that if they removed the Catholic grievances they 'should remove the danger? If be thought that the removing the Catholic grievances could be effected without removing the safe „guards of the Church. no ogle would be more ready than he to duo ; and in justice to the Protestaut coninumity of Ireland he mug say, that they would be anxious to share their privileges wails their fellow-subjects, if they thought it could be dune with security.— But whets be was told that the trauqutUitY of Ireland would be ge•eured by granting such a measure, be naturally put this ques tion to himself-4f the removal of Catholic grievances was the only object of the Catholic Association, why did they take such an hidefinite range of discustiou, interfering With every public measure -that was proposed? Why was every topic of irritation, not even . not directly, but not consequentially connected with the removal of their grievances, so eagerly seised and so vehemently dwelt upon by the popular orators in that place? His answer was, that there must be a system and sn object beyond this, and be could oat; therelote, view their disaffection as growing out of the Cathode grievances. The Honourable Member asked whether the comes NOD of the question would Improve the condition of the poor of Jreland?—(J-leat). He would ask whether it would bring waste land into cultivation? Would it facilitate the working of their mines? Would it transfer British capital to Ireland? Would It sane trade and annul - act urea .—(Lund D i fter i os ). It he could rely en the clarets of lion.

Member neat applied his able arguments to the second and last part of the question, on which Gentlert►en, he said, were called upon to offer the expressitirrof their sentiments. lie considered seriously the danger of concession. The granting of the claims made by the Boman Catbulics be must oppose:MS the principle of danger to the Constitution. The admissiurt of Roman Catholic Members to that liouie would increase the Papal power in England, and interfere with the Protestant Establishment. He was nut disposed to enter upon the wide doctrine of Hassan Catholic tenets, which had created so much discussion. It would be idle to advert to the for mer state of things. Nu c►ange at the present day woul I bring the Roman Catholics to the state they Were in two centuries ago. It was said the Roman Catholic Church could Conform to any Oo- 'aliment, yet a Protestant Government could not permit them to conform without danger to its Church hoeblishment. They had been told of modern liberal changes in the Roman Cathulic doctrine and discipline. Was be to recognise a favourable change in the re storation of the Holy inquisition? Was it in the restos stints of the Jesuits, and the decree tat the Spanish Curies? Was it in the spirit of intolerance which opposed itself to the British Constitution?— One of the brightest ornaments of that Constitution was—the liberty it gave to lkitish subjects of uttering their °initiate, and the power which every man had of declaring his •J to his know subjects. That liberty had been considered odious by those who were eupposed among Roman Catholics to have new and liberal views. It the Houk gave the things required by Roman Catholics, the benefits Of a Protestant Constitution would be sub verted lie wished to know in what the favourable change existed? lie could nut bird it in the Church of Rome, or its eractices. In many ut the moat important periods of the history of the country the Romeo Catholic Clergy had exclusieely exercised their iothience over the Roman Catholic Lats.:. Indeed go all occasions they had, by then own acts, destroyed the tight wh.ch they claimed of %Whig in Parli..nieitt, lit the reign of Elizabeth and Charles I. the Catholic Clergy had. rendered it the duty of Protestants to exclude them Irons the House of Commons. It was nut necessary at the pieseut day to dhow that the Catholic Clergy exercised au indisputable power over the pity. Their power was reciptocal, and when be found the Catholic Clergy and Lay expressnig their must dries mined hostility nut only to the Protestant Church soul people, but to every thing dear to tire country, be could not commit to give them that power they required. Ile was satisfied the concession was not justilied by expediency. lie begged leave to as-sire the lion. Liaresser, that he had as high An opinion of the Duke of Wellington 54 ally man could . have, but he was sure the Duke of Wellington would never secure the tranquility of Ireland by surreudering the citadel of the ( onditution. Mr. DOGIIEIt'I'I said he did nut rise to address the House from the sightert expectation that he could add any thing to the arguitieuts, but having for many years heard the opinions sit others, he was anxious to state the conclusions he had come ta. When called upon ithr his vote, be telt bound to give it couscientaumly. lie kir that the question must be set at rest, amid he thought there was but one way to is:ole it, and that was by conceding it. The time had conic when they insist Woe at at and put an end to the question. Three moues uttered tor adoption. One was to let thole remain as they are ; the second was to conciliate ; and the th.rd was to adopt a severe measure which might coerce the Roman Catholics It was 11/Ipll4.ibk 1U perpetuate the question.

Ihe concession of this question, it was said, would iiijure the Cusistitution. By admitting Members of the Roman Catholic persuashot into that House the Constitution could not be injured. Ile heal el the Secretary our the Hume Deliartnient say, in 1825, that it the euiscediun ut the question coulu tretiqmilise losiand, be would ►cut taut it, but he thought it would have no such etirct. lie did nut any a would trauquillsze Ireland; but he would say, that without it all other measures would be vain.
