The Archbishop Of YORK presented similar Petitions from Huddersfield, and rruei certain members of the Clergy of York. Lord MAY NA RD presented a similar Pythias from Rochdale, l in Lancashire. [ The Bishop of BATH and WELLS presented a Antilar Pathan [from the Archdeacon and Clergy. Lord KING said a few wads on the subject of the Petition. Tire Bishop of GLOUCESILIt tad ihe B shop of NORWICH rose too her, and, :Mei a short time, the former Right Rev. Prelate pioceeded to address the Masc. He said that he owed it to a most respectable body of men, and to a most r• spectacle individual of that body, to take that opportunity of making a few ob servations in answer to shot tad fallen 'tom the Noble Baron (King) on a former evening. He (the B•shop of ,Gloucester) did on that evening present to their Lord ohips a petition from the Provost and Fellows of Eton College against any further concession of political power to the Roman Catholics. Upon that occasion the Noble Baron read to the House an extract of a sermon a h.ch he said had been preached in the chapel at Eton. l'lr (the Bishop of Glouceotr r) was at the time convinced , that. the extract read by the Noble Baron was not cor• reedy reppried. The• Noble Baron, however, differed Irons him iu his view of the matter. •He should now read to the House the extract as given by the Noble Lord.— Here the Right lt,v. Prelate read the extract, which was.to the effect that " Popish ministers were now creep ing into power, and would rum us all in Church arid. St de.. They (the audience) were therefore bound to stand up for theu principles, and to protect the religion which the Government oppooed." The Right R.-v. Prelate proceeeed to observe lbw', from the structure of the seniences, he had been induced to think that they were the work of some bungling school boy rather than the composition of a Clergyman advanced in years, and deeply conversant in the tear ring belonging to his pro. frobion. The Right Re v.Pi elate then said, that he should now read the real passage to which, it to any part of the Rev. Gentleman's address, the Noble Lord must have alluded. He should first, however, read a passage : T om ,a letter of the Rev. Gentleman. lii this passage he sired, that after having tikea his test from the 141 h chapter of the book of Pr overbs, " Righteousness exalt eth a maim!, but sea is a reproach to any people," he rano:Led his audience to the practice of virtue and the maintenance of true religion, and concluded by saying. " Such is the religion which our Church possesses, and which our Government u s llirrids (not opposes), and which is calculated to secure the general happiness of the whole body of society, and the individual happiness of each of its members. Maud ye, therefore, upon the ancient ways, and see and ask for the old paths where the good way is, and walk therein. well assured that the religion professed by your fathers was holy and true, but that, by - the corruptions of the Romish faith, it•had been changed into a dangerous and intolerant superstition, arittch was not only the reproach, but would also be the ruin of any people who professed it." Such wis the real passage of which the Noble Lord had given so false a version to the House. These were sen• finfents from which he (the Bishop of - Gloyersiee) .be lieved that no Protestant, whether ClergyehaWiar. lay man, would dissent. This was the langtage !rich' bad been used by the Reformers who bad brought the people of this country to the 1 , old paths," from the illireistition in which they had been buried. The Right Reverend Prelate said, that, 'after having made this statement and explanation, he could not help capes: , ing his astonishment that any Noble Lord should have. ever thWught of entertaining their Lordships with such ,idle trumpery. He was ready to admit that The. Noble Lord, when he was representing this affair so their 'Lordships' notice, was convinced that the representation .he made Was correct. But he should have ktitewn Wane • He (the flight Reverend Pre., • '4fr 4, ‘ ,:‘ , • . % SDAY EV I , MARC 111, 1829. late) and the Noblie Lord bad • brim at school together for many years. He knew that schoolboys were fond of raising a laugh, and that they were par ticulerly fond of raising a laugh against their masters. The boys, however, in the present case, besides the jest itself, appeared to know well for whose taste they were insulting the entertainment. But, however ready he might be to excuse. these juvenile politicians, he could not so easily forgive the veteran politician who had 'rend to their Lordships the extract to which he had called their attention. It was not worthy of the Noble Lord to,censure a tespectable body of .men and a re spectable individual upon.such information as he had received. The Noble Lord bad shown a most egregious degree of credulity, for which he (the Right Reverend Prelate) could in no manner account, except from the fact that the Noble Lord was infected with the most inveterate prejudices against the Church, and from the extreme eagerness with • hich the Noble Lord was sc. customed to catch..ar every scrap and morsel of a hint which could afford him an oppoaioniey of casein dis credit upon the Petitions which bid lieeci • presented upon that side. of the Hous.. The Right. Reverend Prelate, is conclusion, apologised for having so long occupied their Lawdships' time ; he . had, however, left it his duty to say so mush in vindication of a Reverend and worthy titan.. in whose society he had lived for up wards of six end thirty years. Lord KING saki that he should not have read the extract it it had not come to him from a source which' he thought entitled to credit. The Bishop of NORWICH rose to present a Petition in favour of Catholic Emancipation from several Clergy of the diocese of Norwich ; and another Petition to the same effect from the Unitarians of Lynn, in the county of Norfolk. The Right Reverend Prelate read to the Hothe a passage born a charge at .Bishop Burnett to his Clergy, in which that P.elate recommended them to exhibit moderation towards the Protestant Dissenters . from the Establishmftt. This c. urse he (the Bishop 'of Norwich) recommended to the Cleigy of the Estab lished Church on the ;uncut occasion. . • After a few words ham the Duke of Sussex, The Earl of WINCHILSEA tow to move the Order of the Day, and addresse s ) their Lordships to the fol lowing effect--It is not my intention to trespass upon yeti Lordships at any great length in moving for the returns;of which I have - given notice... In looking over the returns made to this House, 1 do not find that any returns have been 'mooted upon this subject since those of 1767 and 1780, which were much more ezien . : sive than those for Which 1 am now about to move. Since that time there have been no returns made of the numbers of the clergy, or Of the stateof the religious establishments, of the Raritan Catholic church in this Country. To these two obj cts my'resent motion i. confined. The state of ignorance 'in winch the Noble Duke at the head of the Government has thought pro. per to t , ep.•not only the representatives of the people, but also the hereditary councillors Of the Crown, as to the nature of the nieisure. which was to be introduced. into Parliament for the relief of the Roman Catholics, 'Made it matter of mere conjecture with me what that enactment should be when I . shodld come to mike this mo , i,n in this House. I have thought it my duty to move for these return. for two reasons; first, that this nation may know to what ex ent the securities of the pe.iple have been increased in' this empire within the last few years. In that period I have been assured that the establishments of the Jesuits have greatly ie. creased in this country. I can state, upon authority on hich I cats rely, that within a few years one of the chief establishments of that body in this co intry has been much increased, not only by th.: erection of new buildings. but by the purchase of coniiderable property in the immediate neighbourhood of their demesne; nag, I can further state that the majority of the population of three adjoining parishes have been pinselytyzed to the doctrines of the Jesuits.. Tie second reason by ,which I am induced to make this motion is, that, if any provision is to be made f r the support ref the Clergy at. the Roman Catholic Church, the people of the country may kn w to what extent they are to be taxed fir this purpose; for I hold that it will be. impossible for the two Churches long to maintain towards each other the position in which they will be placed by this measuse. 1, therefore, was anzions to, show the people of this Country to what exte'.t they are to be taxed tor the sup port of a religion which everyone..f their Stn , tors has, by his oath, pronounced to be superstitious and idola trous. Tile Bill for the relief of the disabilities of the Roman Catholics is now before lie (louse. That Bill, of which.the Noble Duke at the head of his 1113jesty's Government stated th it, as soon as its provisions should be knomn, they would give general satisfaction to their Lordships—that Bill which wit, to give additional strength and security to the Protestants, to sow dissen sion amongst the Roman Catholics, and establish-the safety and tranquillity of the empire—that Bill is at length before the Legislature. I d r not mean at present to inquire what are the securities which the Noble Duke means to substitute for those, old . and established gua rantees which have.been provided by the Constitution of 1688. I shall upon a future occasion have an ample opportunity of entering into that subject ; but I pledge myself that when the time shall come I shall prove, to the satisfaction of every man in this House or out of it, thai the statement which has been made upon this subject by the. Noble. Duke is the most falls citrus, in all its .bearings, that has ever been delivered by a British Statesman.. -1 shall, hawing said so much upon general considerations, now confine myself to the itanuchate object of the present motion. It may be said that the principles of modern Romaoism are so far different from the ancient doctrines of that Church that the same opinions are no longer entertained by .Rortran Citholies, and that therefore these returns are not new any longer necessary,. as no danger can be now apprehended from an. increase of the numbers of the R..man Catholic Clergy. rln answer to this objection I shall beg leave to read to the. House a few passages from—not a Protestant, but a Roman Catholic writer urn this subject—from a work which deserves to re ceive an attentive petusal•from your Lordships before you come to a decision upon this.awlul and momentous qu-stioa. In this work it is stated that certain obnoxious doctrines of the Notch of Rome, however obsolete they. may appear, are still in existence, are ready to come, ,isito.riettve operation whenever an opportunity shall be afforded. The Truk, which I hold in my hand, has been written by au-Italian Nobleman, who, from his birth, station, and country, is'likely to be well versed in all the principles and doctrines of the Romishchurchi His book is ably written, anti there is every team to Palo; Sv.vitimwy... believe. from the birth and fortune of the author, that he is naturally in favour of Emancipation. It is, however, only in favour of an Emancipation gradually effected, and so continued and secured as to prevent the tosser-pence' which must result from an unrestricted admission of Roman Catholics to political power. If these considerations had been weighed by the Roman Catholics themselves, and still mote by those, if they were considered, Protestant advocates of their cause in this House, who had been in some instances the wilh••gi and in others the unwilling, tools of those instigesers of treason and sedition—the Catholic demagogues of Ireland—they would, perhaps, have hesitated • belittle they contributed to the enlargement of the power and influence of the Romish Chinch. The Noble Earl then proceeded to read a passage from the book which he held in his band; and which stated that the Boman Catholic religion existed in Ireland under a foreign it.. Bnence—with a body of monks in correspondence siith, a.fee t sago power—with Bishops, in whose election or approbation the Crown had no controul—with a Cleve,' who were entirely dependent for support upon the lower classes of the people, and who•were, therefore, 'likely to adopt every line, of conduct which should be most agreeable to the inclinations of those by whom they were to live—a Clergy who vivre perpetbally terfering in the temporal concerns of the State, ar in education and politics, and who would, tlserelore, pro. bably give greater disturbance to the Government in proportion as their power to disturb it .loold be in creased. The author went on to observe that he thought he only expressed the sentiments ot all Governments in saying /hat under such circumstances civil liberty in England would tun a t great risk if bring destried if the penal statutes against the Roman Catholics Apollo& be repealed, without making some sufficient • provision 'against the consequence; that the admission of the lto man Catholics to a participation of legielative functions ' in the two Houses of Parliament would be particularly dangerous, wouldgradually dissolve, and, probably, in" the end, destroy civil liberty in this ci unity. The Noble- Earl went in to read another passage to the effect that. the church of Rome, tliou4h long silent, yet would again lift up het h• ad ; that she would, on the slightest opportunity, endeavour at the assertion of absolute rights; that her-connection with Ireland may at present appear slight; but that it would very soon and fatty easily be made much more close and 'firm, and Oar' unless the measure of Emancipation (it at all rees'ia.y) should be preceded by ample and powerful securities, it sould afford the See of Rotnelfl opportunity of again, and quickly, raising up her head in Ireland ; that after such Emancipation the Roman Catholic question would rise up again with more vigour, and with additional claim& and powers. It may be said that the old °pis nions attributed to the chute!) of Rome . had been for saken by the modern members of that church ; but they ` had never been disclaimed by the authority 'of the church. The Noble Earl having finishethhe reading of the extracts, which were heard with great atteetirns, • Lord KING asked the name oldie author of the Itook•T•• The Earl of WI NCH 11.31tA °Weak, that thd - naudis at tilt • author was not on the title-page. The Duke of W ELLINGTON, tram the treasury Bench, said that the wort was Cada acute in Austria. The Earl of WINCHILSEA prciceeded. ' flibLord.r ship said—l cannot help declaring that, if weiheuld • search back through alrthe history of our country; vie ihould find that the conduct of the Noble Duke at the head of the Government, in respect to thii Bill. leas ,been more arbitrary and dictatorial than was ever es- . hibited by any former Minister. What is t' mesage which we have received Irons our aracions'kiveiein ? That we should take into our deliberate - con-islet:llion the whole state of Ireland, with a view to redress' Cie ' grievances under-which it laboured. New, I sok, in what way has the Noble Duke allowed roe Lordships to consider this subject ? His Majesty's Gas-eminent have taken the case into their own de:iberste ronsideraa ciao, and; alter having revolved the whole matter in their minds, have come dna n to Parliament with a Bill upon the subject. I shall now only say that, whatever measures the Noble Duke may ultimately propose.. if • he thinks that the secrecy, I shall say stratagem:— (Hear, hear)—by which he has attempted to catty this measure into effect, and which ate so allowable And ne. cessary in his military character, if which profession his Grace is the greatest ornament a Rich this country has ever priduced—if he attempts to catty "the , e qualities into the c , oisluct of civil affairs, he wit find tire tort oat' degree of resistance from the per ple r f this country, who value their' lives much less than then Itherti• s.— Two questions have been put to me by a Noble Earl (Greg). I have been aske.t, whether it was possible to form a Government upon principles aciverse to those • entertained by ;the present upon the rneaque? and I have also been asked, how it would be possible toir ras cpsillize the country without considering the qiiestion ? That Noble Earl has been the.advocate of Pa timer- ' tary Reform, and whatever cloUbts I may tt eretote have entertained with regard to it, I confess that, from ' recent events, they have ent;rely vaisished. For the Noble Lord's character I entertain the highest respect be stands to-night almost a solitary example of coiisits tency, and as such his name will illerninate the [logic& • British history, whe'n it will appear tenni hed by 'so many politicians of the present clay, who have adopted ' a line of action 'widely and shamefully 4 fferent. • hits ".. character has shone conspicuously for 111.iniones ~ independence, and Gob grant thit I may be enabled to '. follow his exsmplel As to Parliamentaiy Reform,. I beg openly to assure the Noble Earl, that - whenever be may think it right tobritig forward that measure! shall give it my cordial and hearty support—(Hein). I was not formerly prepared to do 1. I tliougat b ibat, long as the representation of. the empite was entrusted . to honest and independent men, pond,. nouestil, accrued to the country.

The Noble Earl hes • asked in his second question ; what form of Griverntireht could be established• on principles different from Silt , opinions held upon the question by the present.AdMia , nistration?
