Many pemi tious doctrines which had, been attributed to the Ca. tholick were now admitted to have been improperly `is teld aigrOunilS of exclusion.

It was coni.endeil that the Catholics were Incapable of giving a full and perfect Ake - ince in a country where the Xiog is.thelheai of tie .Church as well as of the State. This: objection, I . 'datibted not, would, also in its turn give way to the Itl:ireas of reason, and the increase of information g subject, He seas encouraged in entertaining helpe r not onbi from the advantage which had been gained by the Catholic cause from the admissiop to which he had ?laded, but from the recollection of a measure Re ve: considerable relief having. al ready been coik hy Pieliament. Their Lord ibipi'Might iemein that in 1816, on the last oc casion when he had . the honour to present a. Petition (Mai the tiglish Catholics, that he stated a case of gleat hardship which had occurred in the naval ser iiki.-' He alluded to the case of Captain Wright, a Ottittealin, whU, after six of his brothers had fallen liit thkeause of their country, had at last, by a long serviet and }iii' own merits, obtained the appointment 141011ster.aticl Commander. But from this reward, se desrli phitliasicA, he could reap no advantage, without taking en oath which amounted to the abju ratiOn ot his religion. When he stated this case, the hardship was generally ackr.owledged ; and in the year' 7817, a Noble Viscount on the opposite side in art:amid a •Bill for .the relief of.: l ttoman Catholic Officers of the Arnirand Navy, .brpetsing them on the 'Salle footing with other Dissenters, who are re:. 'Fined from their disabilities as a matter of course, round. He had seen silent progress of this . any opposition. He ing this measure pass be in substance and . that for the propo istration of 1807 went out -,, other reason than to resting on -grounds were sure to be ulti their Lordships not assertions of the impro. Petitioners ;.for, from see that the same asserted to be fraught to the Church and Stair, another; At an act not only of Ilkilufasw:e had certainly Cao irk general ; but the irtition he-was about to, to several oppressive their felrow-subjects that the Roman countries should be placed on the same footing *Ai what he believed no reasonable man would" deny. Bat kwes not for that degree of re lief he should apply ; fin' he looked forward to no thing less than the admission . of .that unjustly op pressed class to all the, privilegnag , the British Con stitution. What time could be more propitious to , the performance of such ;a act of justice than the present? The head of that religion, so long placed under the power of a Military and ambitious chief,' and Therefore represented as likely to exercise a dan gevus influence in this country, had been restored' to his temporal authority chiefly by British efforts.— All apprehension on that ground was therefore done away ; and it was to be presumed that gratitude to this country would induce the head of the Catholic ChUrch to accede to every 'regulation which might be found necessary for the security of this country. Fully' correspondent With this state of the Catholics were the sentiments and feelings of the most ea lightened.portion of their Protestant fellow subjects Upwards them. His Noble Friend had presented a Petition numerously and respectably signed by Pro 'iltstants in Ireland in favour of the Catholic Claims., '.Many other Petitions, to the same effect had come 'from different gpaitOrs. Ir this,country the cause which he adlecatid etat tepidly gaining ground, and their tor:Milt could:net overlook what had hap . 'ER POOL I to enter into any discussion at. present of the impor- Ant subject to which the Petition reierred, but in ,consequence of a point which had fallen from the Noble Earl, co which he felt it proper to offer some naplanation. To receiving the Petition, however, there could be no objection ;its language was proper and respectful, and it proceeded from a body of their fellow-subjects, among whom he knew were many of the most respectable individuals in the country— men whom he, for one, was ready to testify to their public and private virtues. Whatever difference of opihion may exist on the great question shortly to come before the House, it arose, in his mind, upon constitutional principles—principles which were cotir rfitting to be maintained for the due security e Established Government and Laws of the Country and the Church, as connected with these establishments. What he chiefly, if not solely, meant however to advert to, was the allusion made by the f ra oble Earl to a recent transaction: the measurs hich was proposed by the Government about two rs since. The House, perhaps, was not-fully aware at an essential difference existed between that men- lure and another proposition which the Noble Earl ad assimilated to it. The case of the meritorio..s individual alluded to had, upon inquiry as to these points, given rise to an opinion that part of these laws should be altered, as a material difference in such case in the practice as to the Army and the Navy was found to exist. The difference principally was, that in the Army those oaths were never ten dered to the Officers in the first instance, but they were subject to the penalties unless relieved by Act of Parliitment, therefore no difficulty occurred with respect to Officers in the Army ; but with regard to the Navy, the practice was, that, without previously taking the oaths, - they were precluded from taking' the commission. Previous, however, to the case of , 'Captain Wright, it appeared that no instance had occurred for many years. It was, therefore, deemed fair and desirable that both services should be put upon an equal footing in - these respects ; the neces sary inqUiries being made, aad his Majesty's Law Officers consulted, it was deemed proper to legalize what had appeared to have been formerly irregular liith respect to the Army, and to legalize a.similar practice, prospectively, with respect to the Navy. The Bill for carrying this regulation into effect was therefore essentially different in sebstante ard effect from the measure alluded to by the Noble Earl, which was one which in fact went to repeal the Test Laws, which they knew affected Dissenters of all de-' seriprions, and was of that general and sweeping na ture as to do away in effect the operation, in an im portant degree, of the Corporation and Test Laws. 'The measure proposed by the former Administration, and the legislative regulation recently adopted, were therefore essentially different. With respect to the subject more immediately before their Lordships, what the Noble Earl had observed towards the close' of his speech was right, namely, that the question. was to be discussed on the ground of its reference to the due security of the known and long-established Constitution of the Kingdom. Earl GREY spnke in explanation, and briefly con tended that the two measures which were referred to *ere in substance and effect the same, though in their re , :ults so strikingly different. The Earl of •CHARLEMONT presented Petitions from the Parishes, of St. John and St. Michael, in the City of Dublin ; and from the County of Ferma augh ; and from two or three other places, in favour 4 the Catholic Claims. The Duke of WELLINGTON rose to present a Petition against the Catholic Claims from certain Protestants of the City of Dublin. With respect to circumstance to which a Noble Earl had alluded, .had to state, that inquiry had been made whether any soldier had signed the Petition ? The result of the inquiry was, that the names of no soldiers were affited to it. Ile did not mean to admit that there was any objection to soldiers signing such a petition as this as individuals, but as the fact was that they had not, it was not necessary to discuss that question. The Earl of DONOUGHMORE rose, he said, in -consequence of what was stated by the Noble Duke, who he understood to be certain that no soldier had the Petition. It might be 7 that no signature , .6 the kind had appeared to the Petition as far as , his knowledge went. He thought it very difficult, if not impossible, that such a thing could be so known ; 1 the I,le Duke weant to assert the negative knowledge, that no soldier had been sign the Petition, or that no regimen order from a commanding officer had , relative to such a proceeding,. then he I Donoughmore) would refer to such an allega- 1 trusted the Noble Duke was able so to state; statement of the kind was made he would believe that attempts were made to get of soldiers. He had reason to. thin' occasions means were tried to seduce sign Petitions, the nature and effect of knew nothing about. His Lordship al , where attempts of the kind were made ignatures at the depot, and even to pro ',Charity schools in;lreland.. WtLLINGTON explained, that, in what hadleen said on the occasion inquiries were made of and by the competent regularly to ascertain the certainly appeared from the information '.-no orders were given to any soldier `sign his name; that upon examina . 6/no soldier was fund attached to it; felicitates= was made for the purposeto any uor were there any papers sighed,authoritt- Ns part of the Blue CoatMospital to pro- Ns i as alleged.

The Earl of 'ENNISKILLEN contended, the undue influence or exertion s were made on the of the Protestants in Ireland to induce rirnatu Petitions against the Catholic Claims; nor ssa, the least attempt on their parts to stir in proo counter-petitions, until a Noble Earl opposi te called a meeting,of the P: otestants of Dublin. The Marquis of LANSDOWNE presented se e , Petitions, chiefly from Ireland, in support of the tholic Claims. The Duke of SUSSEX presented a Petitior, Belfast to the same etExt. The Earl of ENNISKILLEN presented a Pet from the County of Fermanagh, signed sit neously, he said, by 9,056 persons, amongst w were almost the whole of the Landed Pmrie.o the County, against the Claims of the Catholics. presented likewise a Petitior. from the County or naghan, signed by 20,000, witH a similar pre which he withdrew on account of some infori The Ncble Earl then presented another fin Protestants of Sligo, signed by 4000 the same prayer.
