He also felt pain that the Scotch should have presented such Petitions, when they themselves could hold few offices but for the indul- Amon granted by the Annual Indemnity Bill. He most sincerely hoped, that most of those who had signed them, did so inconsiderately, end that farther discus sion might open their eyes to, their injustice. The 'limitless having been brooglit op, Mr. Secretary PEEL said, he wished to offer a re mark or two in defence of the conduct of those whose Petitions he had presented. One of those" Petitions— that from Bolton—vias signed by nearly 10.0 00 Per sons comprising almost the whole of the Dissenters in that neighbourhood. Now, for his own part, he saw no inconsistency in the conduct of Protestant Dissenters when , they approached that Hodge, - and petitioned midst evincing further concessions to the Roman Ca tholics, because those Dissenters.were protected by the Annual Indemnity. Act. That circumstance did not alter the •state of the question. They had a right to Petition against the concession of privileges to those whose religions doctrines they disliked, because they conceivid them dangeious. The Petitions of the Dis senters were ranched in the most respectful terms. The Petitioners declared that they felt no hostility against the Roman Catholics, but that they were actuated solely by religious scruples.. They felt that the doctrines ma n tained by the Catholic Church were farther removed from their own than the doctrines maintained by the Church of England; and surely they had a right to approach that House with Petitions against granting additional privileges to a body of whose intolerance all past history most amply informed them If the Bill noir before the House were passed, it would not alter the law relative to taking the sacramental test ; but, as thight be inferred from what the Learned Gentleman had said, if it were intended to make that . Bill the first step towards repealing all laws which respected the necilinity of taking particular tests, on account of re ligiopp.opinions, be believed he might reckon on the opposition to the Bill of many persons who had in isoded to support it. Mr. BROUGHAM had stated his own individual opinion on the subject of toleration, and was prepared to support it upon the broad and general principle. It did not follow that any Member who was disposed to support the present Bill for the relief of the Roman Ca tholics was boand to go a single step farther. The object of the Bill was to leave the Sacramental Test and .:ledemnity Act, with regard to the Disse.nters on •the tame footing as formerly, and pl a tie Catholic and Dissenter in a state of equality—(2 lear). I Mr. W. SMITH—Many of the D ssenters wished f o r the abolition 4 1 : 72: religions tests; but otl'ers wished 1 1 the; should be continued its the case of the Roman Catholics. At the same time they thought they c:•uld state reasons why themselves should be excused Prom the necessity of tilting those - tests. He was glad of the present discussion, because it afforded an oppor tunity of putting an end to the two common opinion that because of the operation of the Indemn;ty Act, Dissenters lay under no disabilities. He would pledge himself to prove at the proper time that they did suffer under disabilities, disqualifications, and reproach. Mr. ABERCROMBY said, though he had a very great respect for the main body of Dissenters, yet he could not entertain those sentiments for the present Pe titioners, who were he thought, most inconsistent in their opposition to the claims of the Catholics. On the queasiest that the Petitions be laid en the table, Mr. BROODIIAM said, the D ssenters tittle knew the High Church Party, if they expected that on a motion for the repeal of the Test Act, they would be assis ed by th.t Party. The Petitions were ordered to tie 00 the table, and be The SOLICiTOII.4EIiERAL presented a Petition rote tte CClaims. does of Oxford, against the Catholic ° 'a c e ra ßspon4as the Dimmers' Marriage Bill was postponed to Friday next. On the third Nadine, the Police blazistratee Din, Mr. Secretary PEEL brought tip a clause for prevent ing the County Magistrates of Middlesex and Surrey issuing summonses to persons residing within the juris dictioo of the Police Magistrates. After some cmwersadon. is whiebllr. Hess, Colonel Woes, and Mr. Secretary Pus. took part, the clause was agreed to.—The Bill was then read a third time and passed. The Poor &dement Bit was read sensed time, and ordered is be committed on Wednesday. . On the motion far the second reeding of the Scotch Juries Bit, Mr. KENNEDY spoke in approval of the Bill ; though he regretted that the measure had not been adopted earlier. and with a better grace. Mr. Hums and the Lome Mowers each said a few weeds. Mr. ABERCROMBY adverted to the opposition which the measure had met with from the other side of the House s four years ago, and yet now the Learned Lord came down to the House, and adopted his Hon. Friend (Mr.Kennedes) proposition. and even- carried it still further than his Honourable Friend had proposed to carry it.

Com. 100 i 5 81 71 8 By the latest advices frotn India, it appears that the Burmese war has not, in any degree, weakened our power or influence throughout aindoostan. A letter, written the first week in December, from Central India, I I says, , t This country is in a state of perfect quietude ; and DAOLUT RAO SINDIA, our former opponent, but now our Ally, is al peaceably disposed as we could wish. There are, as usual, petty quarrels occurring every nlw and then, between paramount Rajahs (whom we may compare to the great Barons of the feudal ages), and their refractory Thakoors,or powerful vas sals. Similar events were of constant Occurrence in Europe some centuries ago; and they niturally arise out of the present constitution of society in India; but these insulated contests have only a local operation, and in no way affect the general peace." These remarks may serve to allay the fears which many persons enter mined, in consequence of the Barrackpore mutiny. The example of insubordination 'did not spread even among the native troops in the neighbourhood: and certain it is,that in Cesstrallndia no cause for apprehen sion exists,other than that which must always attend an empire so rapidly gained, and so widely extended. The re-establishment ofe Order of the Jesuits, their assiduous and intriguing character, and the in fluence they have already regained in France, excite a well-grounded alarm with all who are acquainted wills the history of this Order—a body charged with having, assassinated three Kings of France,' and with other atrocities of a. criminal nature. SOme of the journals insinuate that the assassination of N. COURIER, who had rendered himself obnoxious to the Jesuits, by his writings, has been instigated by them; but this is a charge of too serious a character to be made on slight grounds ; and, for the honour of humanity, we trust it is unfotirided. There is, however, little doubt, that the-monstrous Law of Sacrilege, which we yes terday stated had passed the French Chamber of De puties, is the work of the Jesuits, and that it is very' unpopular with the French generally, who may be divided into three classes, intolerant bigots, rational religionists, and infidels ; the two 'latter are, though perhaps on different grounds, decidedly opposed to the new law; and no wonder, when we find in it such a Draconian enactment as the following s -84 The profanation of consecrated hosts publicly com mitted, shall be punished with death ; the execution shall be preceded by the aneerede homorabk, made by the convict in the principal Church of the place where the crime shall have been committed, or 'of the place where the Court of Assize shall have been held."-- Considerable opposition was made to the adoption of this article in the Chamber of Deputies, on the grounds - • Protestait; *be Aut '6 kits be comieswest to die foe uwessibssitt would be very hard that he should sot nett , but etrea *galas his conscience be obligati ~nth ilowsraile," which his aged might A permit* do the *bee bead, it was tveatended sale the anomie horsoraik awl sot iatstkee with the reii4 glom scruples of any . isthentosement *Unki not be to religion, Inniti ihit Oilimdid lairs of societiri which , should not be confound al with,paiats of more Sesuitish argument In fain:v.4a brebtiroas lasi was never urged.

I could have wished, indeed, that the debate bad elesedyith idas, as a Whine justly paid to Tinos sod talon, Frankfort Papers to the 12th instant, reached us this forenoon. They contain accounts from Canes, in the Isle of Candia, of the 4th January, stating, that in the night of the Slit December, a handsome brig, belong• ing to blimps PACHA'S Let, took fire. This mis fortune was ascribed to the malice of a Greek, but was probe* owing to accident. The explosion was terrible. It was very fortunate that the thrte other ships of the convoy did not share the same fate. The 'force of the. explosion beat in the doors and windows of the Austrian Consulate, which was not far from ibe vessel on fire. The Neckar Gazette of the 10th inn. contains a ram bling incoherent letter of it Correspondent, complaining that as the tone of the political Journals in France, or even England, with the exception of a few of the better ones, whose Editors disdain to delude their readers with slight-of-hand and jugglers' tricks, is really disgusting and mean!" .4 Each," continues this sweeping -critic, U in the manner ofa mountebank, extols his own coon mo. dities, is 4he sole possessor of the elixir of truth, the bal. sam of infallibility, the key to the mysteries of politics, and the ircanum against all errors and delusions.* • Did war not naturally consider ourselves included is the exceptions of this redoubtable assailant, we should be as L most at a loss ho w to deal with him. Such a ch ge against the. American. Press would bring the Editors over to demand satisfaction; but as two Countries are included in the charge, we think the best way will be, for the Editors of the political Journals in this country and France, to choose one of their number Rs their champion, to enter the tourney against ibis atrocious libell.r. We have received Philadelphia Papers totile2oth of March. They state that, the. Bedford had arrived with' letters ffsim the Sands:id. Islands, to the ?9th of .liers , tember, stating, that •war bad broken out in the , islaih. ; of Atoi ; where a son of Pa?, the. Prime Minister, had ' assumed the office of Governor, to the delusion - of late King, Rao Rto's, scm. The latter, is revenge, it • is said, had shot a white man, the confidential adviser of PITT. A general rising is said to have been the re. suit ; and that 1000 men had proceeded from Owhyee to quell the insurrection. Such is the story in the Ame rican Papers, the truth of which we doubt: Accounts from Vera.. Cruz state, that. the blockade of St. Juan de Uiloa is .continued. It is expected that - BOLIVAR will be re-elected President of Colombia. ;The servile Address of the Chapter of Monte Video to the Emperor of BRAZIL, whisk. we•noticed in the . STAR of Wednesday, has been followed by others of a similar character, disapproving of any restrictions on the power of the Estsmacia, and inviting him to reign with absolute authority. in the Diario numinous of the 10th January, there ita.document of this description. —lt appears that the Cabildo or Council of Monte Video had been presented with ,a portrait of the EOM. aoa, and in return for this mark of Imperial conclaves- sion, they addressed his Mum: in a style of the most inflated eulogy, and extravagant admiration. 06 On the 4th of December," say these loyal Councillor% "appeared on the waters of our horizon, like a true le. urinary, the precioui gift which your bizarre sent us. On the same day, your resplendent august colours en nobled the great hall of Head-quarters ; and on cheats tile same Trost inestimable picture was conveyed, in await° to the capitular palace, till a room should be prepared for its solemn inauguration. In this inesti mable gift yourConneil think they perceive a solution°, the famous problem of the quadrature of the sEhere." This is absurd; they might as well say, the Lass's picture had diseoyered the perpetual motion, ,or the philosopher's stone. What follows is a miitture of see vile adulation and impiety. After telling the Emperor that they experienced in his presence “ a mixed sensation of pleasure and trembling, as if in the presence of the Angel of the Loan,'' and that Monte Video might say of him, as the Church says in the Canticles, u I aus my be loved's, and my beloved is mine;" they advise hien* to 4 , govern imperially, and assume absolute power," as the most energetic and the most prompt mode of ruling. An answer is returned to this Addressoe the 7th of January (a month after its date), in which his !ureteral. MAJZSIT gently rebukes the too eager zeal of the Monte-Videans ; but we find that at the same time be nominates both the Syndic and the other members of the Cabildo Knights of the Order of Cumin. A si milar address, sent from Rio Grande,has bees answered in a similar manner. If these Addresses really express the feelings lithe Brazilians, they are worthy of the despotism they seek; but if this is not the case, there is reason to fear some meditated attack on the Coostituticnal system. which, however it might succeed for a time in triumphing over it, would ultimately end in making Brasil a Repeblir. independent of any Member of the Horse el Bra.
