Lord BINNING argued in favour of the motion. A full particip. , tit in in all the benefits of the Consu tution ought not to be refused toany classuf the people, unless it cculd be strewn that the grout was attended with danger. The Catholic question gained strength year after year. The mist was falling trum the eyes of the people of this country. Public ocenion was much divided, and this was a sufficient ground for an en quiry into this very important subject. The test laws were not the laws of the land. They were an inao vation on the Constitution, called fur by the necessity of firmer times, and left to posterity to be modified or annulled as circumstances miglit demand. The French Revolution, founded on pr;ncip!es of infide lity, had rendered Popery innoxious to this country. experience manifested, that Catholics were not averse ; to liberty ; for to whom did we owe the greater part 1 of our existing rights and privileges, but to our Ca tholic ancestors ? We had conceded tau much to the Catholics to stop. Were Mr. Pitt living, he I would support the motion. Mr. Pitt knew human nature better than to suppose tat a Catholic Bar. rater veouht be content..sithout being allowed to aspire to the Bench, a Catholic Captain without being per- ! 'Dived to indulge the hope of commanding an army,' or a Catholic c.;entlenran with returning his Pro testant neighbour to Parliament ? Were the princi- • ples of the Catholics hustle to the Censtitutitm ? Why had air, of their claims been wattled ? Were they no; husti.e? Why v. ere net all granted? E the present conduct of Parliament was .t censure upon the past, or the past was a censute up u the pr.:scut.

If they did so, they would have his hearty prayers for their success. Colonel LEMON declared his opinion to be in fav'.ur of an enquiry. Mr. OWEN sa•d, his opinion always was, that every individual in these realms should be alionted the tree and unrestrained exercise of their religion.— . The claims which the Irish koman Catholics no*/ made, however, he was sorry to say, were inadrnis sible. If the present claims were conceded, attar demands must naturally increase, and in time they might conceive the Protestant Lstablishment to be unjust and imroiiiic—(hear, hear). —Religious ruusittes would be renewed, ::rd no person could foresee the result.
