• CATHOLIC AFFAIRS. --sease -13TEREATING LETTE fdI R OR FROM LORD DOROUGH .E. • Dublin, April 30. There was a very fall Meeting cif the Catholic Board at D'Arty's yesterday. After Mr. Power, of pallinakill, had been called to the Chair, the follow ing letter was read by Mr. Secretary Hay Kooalatv, April 21, 1818. 66 DEAR HAY, —]laving been from home nearly the whole of the day on necessary business, and haw. jag returned only to a late dinner, I have little time to reply as I could wish to your letter of the '2sth bet. which arrived here this morning, as the man ors& for Dublin passes this gate at 10 at night.— Your letter having, however, apprised me that a Meeting of the Catholic Board is to he held on Wed. Destiny melt, for the purpose of considering the pro priety of petitioning Parliament, I should think my self unworthy of any confidence on their part if I lest a moment in deprecatiug, in the strongest possi ble manner, the adoption of such a measure at the present moment, against which there are many °W ilts circumstances of discouragement, and to which' course there is, in my mind, no one principle or ar gument to invite. " Surely Kis impossible to forget so soon the state of miserable destitution in which your question was left last year in the House of Commons, when the spirit of the inveterate antagerdst of your rights, the late Learned Doctor of Civil. Law (Duigenan) seemed to have revived again, and the combined attack was made, with considerable force and acrimony, against the Whole Catholic Bosly and their religion ; and where there ens no refutation of thesecelumities heard in reply, hut the question of the People of Ireland, triumphant in argument almost on every former oc casion, was nearly kicked out of the Ilifuse. " After such a defeat, surely the Catholics ought not to proceed to battle again, without the best con certed previous preparation; and without havingi been well apprised, through the means of such pri. vate enrnmunicetion, whet sort of suppert t , ey were to look to hem those whom they were in the habit of considering as their Parliamentary friends. If such $ co mmonlcstion has been had, and the result has been encouraging, then, indeed, the question might be committed again to its fate in Parliament. If not, I should cousider the attempt, and still less so at this advanced period of the Session, as little better than absolute insanity. " With respect to the other House, von certainly have no cause to complain of any derelictien there. But see how that House is situated as in the attend ance of some of its most permanent Members, and of your most distinguished supporters. Neither Lord Grey, Lord Grenville, t;or Lord Wellesley have been itt attendance during the present Section. Would you wish to commit your cause to arguments deprived of such support, as tt.air t.lents and energies would insure ? " Such are the arguments against proceeding during the present Session. Where is there one solitary argument on the other side of the question' 66 But my time is come, and I must Ounclude. • " Your's, dear thy, must truly, sr T o Edward tiny, DONOUGHMORE." This communication gave rise to a very animated debate. Messrs. Mahon, O'Gorman, M'Donnell, and Major li'Derroott, were for petitioning during the present Session. Messrs. O'Connell, Rowley, and several others, declared themselves disposed to an opposite cone's of proceeding. Mr. O'Gorman at length submitted the following Resolutions Thai an Aggregnie Meeting of the Catholics of Ireland he eunterwii in Dublin, oo the 91,1 day of Ma, 111111, C•r the pur 111Pir of comileri, , g of the in - qprirty of inewilti-e a retillibll to brhalf of the Catholic 4 of Ireland. This seas negatived on a division. Thanks were afterwards voted in the following terms to Lord Donnughmore ; Resohrea, That the fe , fli grateful Thanks of this Alerting be transmitted to our Ite.t, rarer Zehltllls. moat manly and rihciea ndyocale, the Fail of is.,cougtimare, the coththUutCullod of .entimeuttt ou the present stinn of out cause. This Resolution pitied with acclamations. CITY lIIIIIINECS.—Vesterday, the Lord Mayor held a Court of Common Council wt Guildhall, in conse quence of the Order of the House of Commons for the Returns to be made of the City's Receipts and Disbursements. The Lord Mayor laid before the Court the Answers to the several Acidresse: to the Prince Regent, her Majesty, the Priucess Eliztaeth, and the Prince of Hesse- liwoburg, which were read, and ordered to be entered on the Journal:. The se veral Orders of the House of Commons, requiring the production of the City's Accounts were then read. The Committee to whom the Order of the House of Commons had been referred, delivered in a Report, recommending that a respectful Petition should be presented by the Court to that House, praying to be heard by their Counsel, *ittiesse , , and agents, at the Bar of that House, in support of the said Petition, which being read, and a motion to agree being made, an amendment was moved to agree with the Report of the Committee presented at a former Court, recommending the Accounts to he presented, which being put, was negatived, and the original question was put and carried. A Petition was drawn up accordingly, and ordered to be presented by the Sueriffs forthwith. The Earl of DaLuquste, it is said, accepted the Government of Halifae on the cypress declaration, that he was to succeed Sir JO/1/4 SHERSitOOK as Governur•General and Commander in Chief in Canada. The latter appointment, however, has been' ' coriferrei on the Duke of Itrcossoeb, as the reward of his political services in Ireland, when Viceroy of that kingdom, with appointments of 30,0001. per altuuni.

Captain 11 ALD EGlt AV E pre.iesi:ed a Petition (rota Lieutenant Frederick Bedford, of the tinsel Navy, stating that he had been many years iai service, and that at an early period (we titiderstood when he was a midshipman) he had lost an eye and the use of his jaws by severe wounds, and that he received only a pension of 911. or 951. a year, which was in sufficient half-pay. The lion. Gentleman observed, that it was unpleasant to make compsiisons between the branches of public service, but he could not avoid alluding to the facilities afforded to the army in ep. plications to the Commander-in-Chiet, as compared with those given at the Admiralty. Mr. BENNETT said, he understood the Noble Lord et the head of the Admiralty refused the sight of his high presence to Lieutenants. This, he was sure, was not the'case in the etletirtit rations of Earl Spencer and of the Earl St. Vincent ; neither was tilt an ariangement adopted as to the army by the Carmnander-in-Chief. lie trailed, if what he heyed was true, that he should bear some good reason as signed for it. Air. CROK ER said, that the Petitioner appeared to be rather a person favoured than othereise, es he was an inmate of Greenwich Hospital. lie was not quite able to give a very distinct ant; er to a t ioestion put by an lion. Member ; hut he must o bserve, that the Noble 1.9r11 at the head of the Board of Admi ralty was a responsible Minister of the Crowo• lie was not Situated similarly with the Commander-in. Chief, who held a substantive office. Ile was only the senior Member of a Commission for executing the duties of the Admiralty. The Secretary of the Ad mirally had as little as possible to do with business of the nature 'law mentioned. Ile (Mr. Croke') was not Secretors to the tit tit Lord of the Admiralty, but to the Board of Admiralty. fie was tint a ware th a t the regulations and rules had been altered. Ha had bean connected with the Admiralty for nine years,' and had not known of any difference in the regula tions; if there were any, they most he of a private nature. For himself, he could say that he was at the office every day, and all day long, to see any body who did him the honour to call upon him, on any business that related to his department. Captain WALDEGRAVE adverted to the cir cumstance of a pension stopping on a promotion Lieutenant Bedford received no pension for the lose' of his eye and jaws when a Midshipman. Mr. CROKEIt said, that, as he understood the matter, the supposed grievance applied no more to, the administration of the navy than to that of the army. It had beet. a practice for officers to receive pensions after promotion, and he believert there were many who s. , received them now. But Lieutenant Bedford asked, why he did not. Ills case occurred before tee regulations, which had been adopted a few years ago. lie had a situation in Greenwich Bo.pi. lel, calculated at /251 a year. His peusion of 951. a-year (as we could understand) lie received through Lard St. Vincent, fourteen years back. Sir C. YOLE thought the Petition improperly wordoti. Air. C itOK EH remarked, that he had never heard that . t4e mutations at Greenwich were less favours. ble than those at Chelsea. If any mottos ea this subject, he. should' he ready to Conimunicsi. all the information he could give.=—The Petition was received, and ore -red to he canted. LAND TAX ASSEsSAIENT On the motion that the House resolte itself %U N . Committee on the La: d Tax A ftessment Bill, ' •''' Sir JAMES GRAHAM Said, he found fault - with . a Bill like that on which it had been proposed to Rd into a Committee, but more especially it was objec. tionsble on the ground of its being ititedlitired such a period of the Session. In niany counties It would be found that there was not even a third of the land redeemed, in some a half, and in some a little more than that quantity. Ile trusted the House sioo!d• not allow the BM to pass so near the eve ora General, Election, as it would most ;wholly create consider able confusion. • The Hon. lisronet cot:chided by moviog, as an amendment, that the Bill should be committed that illy three months. Mr. BANK:ES thought he: -Rill 'was highly ink peilient at present, though he admitted the pegeaafry of something : it would, in his opinion, be productite of considerable inconvenience. Mr. W. 1V YNN, supported the Bill. • • Lord CASTLEREAGH thought an Honourable' Member had a very , cutious opinion of the Members who would nut have their freeholds registered. He thought if the registry of Ireland was ealminett, iti would be found not very diMcult. We unilerstotid the Mae Lord upon the whole to say, that he would object to tlie measure, unless it were for a more coma piece alteration and reform in the laws relative to registratina, Sir S. FtWilll.l.Y . strongly supported the Bill.— If the measure itself was good. the General Elec. tiring Wet near surely could not he coniidered by toe Hesse as'any conclusive 'ligament against it. Lord LOWTHER, as we understood, opposed the principle of the Bill. • Mr. W. WYNN explained. Mr. BROUG II A M was of opinion, that cOnvideri'l able alteration had taken place with regard to the eq. fect of the registration, in consequeoce of the re• demotion of the Land 'nix. it was intended that there should bee check tot man in the course of his voting. That object was tolerably well carried into effect till the redemption of the Land Tax. All was very well till then; bet let the House PPP what a door aw,is opened for perjury.. A man had only to swear that be was possessed of a freehold with 404. for a year :lad a day, and upon it one L., till Tat had been red.-erne(' ; and w hen he wa, C riled on to produce his he might swear ti at his freehold lav on a o hu h was redeemed, said the et.; liticate of the !istrct Ir s s iie•fectly accessible.— Ulcoci.]—Wi'ulii Members say that that was a system of perfect reeist•atico would it tie atiempt.4l io be as erted tt at that .as a de of equal soil proper registration, which opened the (loot ,o sorts p. ?—[ near Mr. B. BATHURST said a few words in opposi tic', to the Bill. Sir W. Grist: and Mr. Ncwsia.w supported it. The House ttien divided ) ‘vei N IWO 90 54 Mnjnrhy - sS This Bill is consequently Lest. A Petition way preventod from the Lord Mayor,' Aldermen, and Common.. of the City of Loudon, in Common Council assembled, respecting the New Pliant' for Debtors, in Wnite-cross-street. Aft.t stating the proceedings relative to the building of the Prison, and the application of the City for no addi tional sum to complete it, the Petition set forth, that the !lo u se bad been pleased to call for various accounts of the receipts end expendituto of the City ; that 111,1 did tint mean to dispute the tight of the House to call for those accounts, but hoped that it n oull dispense with them, inasmuch as many of ' them were of a private nature ; and it prayed, that the city might be heard by Cotios , l at the liar of the !louse. Sir W. CUItTIS moved that the Pmition do Moon the table. The Bon. Baronet then gave notice, that he would call the attention of the 11.)use to it on Thitrqlay se'nnight. On the motion of Mr. BROUGBA NI, the further I consideration of the Report ot. the Bi!I respecting the I'.4ue ition of the Poor was poititotted till Thurs. !day next. COMMITTEE OF StippLy. The CIIANCEI.I.Oit of the 1. XCREQUER. mover! the Order of the Day, that the iloc.o resolve itself into a Committee of Supply. The Esti mates of the Commiss , rist Department, the Army Extraordinatins, and the Miscellaneous Set vices, m ere otileierl io be referred to the ',lid Committee. The Speaker having left the Chair, Mr. BA NKEi rose, aryl said, that he begged to call the 'mention of the Committee to the Report which had been laid before the (louse relative to the purchase of the late Dr. Bartley's library. Ile was an advocate for economy and retrenchment, but he trusted that the resources of the country were not re duced to so low a slate as not to be able to afford I some encouragement to literature. The House had directed its attention to this subject in times of greater public pressure; he would instance the case of the Elgin marbles, and no Member, he thought, would I fail to rejoice that the House had voted a suns of money on that occasion. The Library of the late Dr. Burney was extremely valuable in many patti culara. Many eminent persons considered tlsat it corttaitsed the most valuable collecti on of Greek lite. Irature that had been formed by any one individual. Ile had enriched the Greek dramatic poets by many re ' marks of Isis own, and other distinguished scholars, amongst whom might be mentione I the late Professor Porson. In short, it was a Library of which the Public ought to be proud; and if it were to be dis. perm!, many years, nay, he might say, centuries, might elapse before so valuable a collection could he obtained. The observations which he had now matte would, he frosted, satisfy the .110..5e that the .Com• mittee had not been negligent of the interests of the Public, nor acted ht any other capacity than as eg los of an ordinary purchaser. Ile should move, therefore, that the sum of 13 5001. be paid to tr e ezecutors of the late Dr. Burney, as the piste of his books, manuscripts, collections, &r. Mr. CURAVEN felt himself under the painful necessity of opposing the grant, although he war quite aware how desirable was the acquisition of the library hi qeestioa. lie opposed it on the. same • pr;oclple as that on which he hail op;iosml the pare - chase of the Elgit:' marbles. In the present ideation . of the finances of the ommtv 4 :, different from the flattering statement made with respect to them it the commeocethent of the Session, he cneld net conaent to vote a si-gle shirting for stay purpose but one of indispetedb'u necessity. Mr. DOUOI.Ai gave full credit to the flontrotahlo Membe, for Carlisle for the mauve of his opposition, hut thought that be rather miautiderstood.the nature of the, laroposed grant. In the Report aside by the qtmmit,lett o to whom the consideration of the sub ject had ben referred, it was statedi that 3t41;41, of of the money required would be supplied by the, D A; of hooks now in the British Museum, which the ei wi l quisition of Dr. Burney's library would rend,eruupera, lltioos, and that the remaining • 10,0001. alwifflklip i furnished by suspending the usual annual gtspimnitt i )3,44!ph m useum: , until the advance of that strmAt i t l A i been paid.

In the t atrai lt A.. of work( of literature, it was not worth while to es peed money et the purchase of the works of little moment, ender the accumulatinn of which every 0 inv. valuable would be buried. If any thing wl4 to he found in this collection not elsewhere to be ob tained, either fragments o f history, or treatises of morals, or einmples of oratory, tie should he willing to pay money for its preservation; but es for the re rieties of verbal criticism, it might well he left to the enthusiasm of virtuosos, while the interference of the Stale was confined to that which was really useful to mankind. (le did not hear it alleged, that this li brary was any thing more, then mere curinsitiee in literature; and though they might venerate the in. divittuals who attended to minutia ((or en excess of l earn ing in some might be necessary tediffuse it to all), be could not see the neceaslty of encouraging such studies on the part of the State. Sir J. MACINTO.iII rose to enter his protest against the sentiments of the lletioureble Member for the City of Oxford (Mr. Lockhart)—it was well he was tint x Member for the University—e 110 lied pressed such contempt for that classical learning, which was the foundation of education in this as welt as every other polished nation of Europe.
