The Noble 3larouis illlMlebuleseultod a petition in favour of Catholic Eniancipetion, from ! of St. Luke, in the county of Middlesex. •fiord COLC II ESTER presented a petition from the same parish, dotted by WO persons, axsiost the claims of the Cetholics. The elarquis of LANSDO preened a petition from the borough of Bridport, in favour of the Catholic claims. Ile was huh...toted to state that the petition would nut hare been presented if • petition of a different nature had not been forwarded from this town. The petition he now presented contained the names of many wealthy and respectable persons, and among them of several of the Corporation of that town. The 1:1,71 of SHAFTESBURY said he had presented a petition from the sante place, signed by 1.164 persons. The Marquis of LANSDOWN did not allude so much to the number as to the respectability of the petitioners. The Marquis of LANSDOWN then presented a petition to the same effect from the ishabitants of Kingston, in Herelordohire; and another from the Dissenters of the town of Chichester. Lord HOLLAND said he had to present a petition also from Dissenters, and to the same effect. It was from the town and vici nity of S , rood, In the county of Gloucester, anti contained the sib natures of most respectable persons. Their number certainly was not very great, hilt he was instructed to say it would have been greater. bit-that they rejected the signatures of all those who could not comprehend the historkal allusions centaieed in the petition. Tie peyrsoaere au saiimPliat they would have preferrejAgning the petition of their britlitan of the 4'ilitereh of Eoghtntl. but tires they understood it had been &incited that the Dissenters were ad ve.se to the claims of the Catholics; and they were therefore anxious to exculpate themselves from what they considered an aspersion. They declared that, as Protestant Dissenters and as British subjects. tney wished to extend to their Catholic fellow. subjects that civil liberty which they considered necessary to the tranquillity of the country. The Noble Lord then presented a pe tition in favour of the claims of the Catholics, from the Dissenters of the town of Stroud, in the county of Gloucester. Lord 1101,LAND then presented a similar petition from the Protestant inhabitants of the town and vicinity of New Rios; and another from the Presbyterian Ministers, Elders, anti congregations of the Presbyterians of Down and Antrim. The Noble Lord raid that the latter petition contained the names of eight Ministers, and many Elders of considerable respectability. The petitioners stated that, like twiny other Dissenters in the North of Ireland, they were favourable to the claims of the Catholics, and that their opinions were in conformity to those formerly stated in a document which emanated front the Synod of Ulster. The LORI) CHANCELLOR presented a petition against the CI tins of the Cotholics, from the parish of St. James's, Garlick hill.

The petitions were severally laid on the table. DISSENTERS' MARRIAGE BILL. The Bishop of 0 lOUCESTE It presented a petition from Stowe, in the diocese of Gloucester, against the Dissenters' :Marriage till. —Laid on the table. ATTAINDER BILL. The LORD CHANCELLOR observed. that as this was the evening appointed by the Noble Lord (Holland) for the second reading of the Attainder Bill, he felt it necessary to state, that as circumstances had pressed that subject somewhat on his attention, it isould be hardly consistent with the respect he owed the Noble Lund the House, if he did request that the Bill might be read Sensed time at some future period. If the Noble Lord had no dionlon to such an arrangement, he should feel obliged by having 1. b ell . o lAA NI) said after the reqnest of the Noble and lifiNissee%Lotcl, it was quite imperative on him to postpone the oslisibenallbig of the Bill. lie would therefore move the order of awl al# for the purpose of postponing the consideration of the suestioe. Tb. order of the day was then read, and the second reading of the Bin was postponed to Thursday week. EQUITABLE LOAN BILL. The Earl of LAU DER DA LE moved for a copy of the feet* for money, given by the Directors of the Equitable Loan Company before the signing of the trust deed. Lord DACIIE said he should not oppose the motion if the object Were not to create delay. The Earl of LAUDERDALE said that such was not the fact. There could not be any objection to grant such copy, as one could easily be procured.—Ordered. Sir E. Knatchbull, and several Members of the House of Commons, brought up a Message, requesting to be furnished with such additional information as their Lordships might have re ceived relative to the state of Ireland. The LORI) CHANCELLOR informed the Members of the House of Commons, that their Lordships would send an answer by a message of their own. Mr. Egerton, and several Members from the House of Com mons, brought up szveral private Bills, which were read a first time. The Crosby . Divorce Bill went through a Committee, and the report was received. THE THELLUSON CASE. The LORD CHANCELLOR addressed the House on the Thelluson case, and recommended their Lordships to affirm the judgment of the Court of Chancery, but said that it would be ne cessary for the case to go back to that Court. Ile would on Mon day produce some explanatory papers. Counsel and evidence were heard at their Lordships Bar in Sul livan's Divorce Case. The House then Adjourned. HOUSE OF COMMONS, FRIDAY, Mai 13.

HOUSE OF LOR , atinea, limr 13. I ' CATHOL4 I 3LAIMS. ' - The Areftlilshon of 'YORK ' ted a petition from the Clem' of the East Riding of the Co York, against the claims of Use Cothelim. lord RING said, that al tile petition was agreed to at a 'Ali; treats)" he understood was considerable opposition to 'that petition at the meeting, an I several sensible and eloquent speeches were delivered on thijetwision. To him it appeared slur so. few petitions a the Catholics had been pre rentedsira from the clergy of the 1 ' luceses, and that so many hat; boos gut up by the clergy of the dioceses From York, lapin as f Canterbury, from Wioehester. (rout Durham, but few proceeded ; while the contrary w e case with respect to ter, Devoe, Susses. anti,Cheshi . .. he reason, however,ap to him to be, that those small were possessed by ........ its tronaitts, who had their ow Iv es in pressing forward du clergy rs to petition, and which the other Noble and Rev. had not. But for his part he preferred those venerable fix sores of ng the House to th_sse pia* 0 f furniture that were always i changi Lord HttltON felt it a roadie of duty to say, that' 'twig !been uttered by the Noble Lint (King) relative to those ItiaW .:who possessed Sees of the highe&l puler, was a downright calumny. The Noble and Reverend Lor r ea sought to maintain the purity of the Constitution, and the ps who possessed the grater uses were influenced by this f as well as those who possessed OM law. . Lord KING replied, that if du Noble Lord (Kenyon) meant to say that what be (Lord King) Seated WAS not a fact, be world give him a direct denial. But ' .. ii was or was not calumny, he ( h oed '' ) despised the a De bad examined the peti tions to their Loldith ,a)fl had, fork 14a; he pd •fea to be correct. Lord KENYON, in explanation, observed, that he did not re ply as to the fact stated by the Noble Lord relative to the number of petitions, but to the argument that ihe Bishops were influenced by the motives ascribed to then by the Noble Lord ; and he would again say, that the ion of the Noble Lord was &downright calumny. The Bishop of EXETER said that from his diocese, which happened to be one of the largest in extent, as great a number of petitions had been presented as trout any other.To forward those peti tions he had not used any influence ; and he was surprised that, after what he had stated on a previous evening, the Noble Lord should be guilty of so great a calumny. The petitions were the voluntary exp-essions of the feelings of the people, and the clergy had not exerted themselves to produce them. Fur himself and his brethren, he denied the charge of the Noble Lord (King), and re peated that he bad not used any influence to forward petitioning; but he believed that petitions bad been brought into the Houle lo consequence of what had at various times fallen from the Noble Lord himself, and who had construed the silence of the people into indifference. He (the Bishop of Exeter) knew that the majority in his diocese, and he believed the majority of the country, were de cidedly hostile to the claims of the Catholics. As intimidation had been used by certain Noble Lords who had spoken of the danger to be apprehended if the Catholic Bill did not pass, he would entreat their Lorel•hips to consider the danger of refusing the prayer of the petitions of the people of England, and whether they would not be as ready to come forward and assert their rights as the people of Ireland were. The Bishop of HEREFORD made a few observations which did not reach below the bar. hoed KING said that it was not to the size but to the re venues of the Dioceses that he alluded ; and he knew that where the revenues were small, there the greater number of petitioners had been found. One thing reconciled him to the Catholic Church, that there were no translations in it. ' The LARD CHANCELLOR said he would take the liberty of advising the Right Rev. Prelates not to oppose the observa tions made by Noble Lords on the other side of the House, as he was convinced they were indebted to what those Noble Lords had said for (he very large number of petitions that had been presented to the House. Ile entreated the Right Rev. Prelates to let the Noble Lord (King) go on, and he would venture to say, that if that Noble Lord spoke day after day, there would be more pe titions presented between this day and Tuesday than their Lord ships' table could contain. Lord ROLLE expresied his opinion that the number of petitions that had hien presented to the House had been presented in con sequence of the observations of the Noble Lord (King), and other Noble Lords. Lord HOLLAND said drat he was glad to find, from what had fallen from the Noble and Learriod.Lord on the 11'oolsack, and from the Noble Lord (Rolle) on the gross benches, that the peti dens had been presented in consequawae of what had taken place in Use House; but he had some difficulty in reconciling that assertion with the observations of a Right Bev. Prelate opposite, and of the Noble and Learned Lord on a former evening, namely—that the great majority of the people of Kra land were decidedly hostile to the Bill recently brought up by ihe Commons of the Unitco Kingdom of Great Britain, and brought up for a second time, and which for a second time they bad solicited their LOTtiSill pa to give assent to. But by this Right Rev. Prelate, and by the Noble and Rev. Lord, and by °diet Noble Lords who reasoned as they did, some new light had been thrown on the Constitution of England. 'he had been always told, by anti-parliamentary Reformers, of the impoliey of touching the grand ark of the Constitution--the British House of Commons. He had been always told to consider that House as the legal and constitutional organ of the public voice; he had been always told, and he had assented to it, that the House of Commons was the true safety-valve by which the real feeling of the pcooie Of England would have vent. It now ap peared, however, that lie, and all who had so argued, laboured under a mistake—that they had been in error all the while, and that the House of Commons, instead of being the engin of the people, was a mere oligarchy, as it had been sometimes styled by v:si "nary reformer . ft was with pain then that lie had been forced to consider that the people of England had no organ in the House for the expression of public opinion ; but he now found that there were ways of making that public opinion known--that there were organs by which democracy would have vent, and that those organs were the Archdeacons, the Noble and Rev. Prelates opposite, and the Noble and Learned Lord on theWoolsack,who were now the tribunes of the people, and who came forward to state what the senti ments and the will of the people of England were. If the Noble and Learned Lord' ad a veto on this measure, it was not to be ex pected that the he would have looked to Palace-yard and to the meeting of the multitude to ascertain the course he was to pursue, but rather that he would have 10 - ikeil to his right hand and to his left for his authority. Ile (Lord Ilolland) had still so much of the leaven of Reform about him, that he was not prepared to consider a vote of the Ilouse of Commons as undoubtedly a convertible term with the will of the people; but he was not prepared to say that the measure which had been brought up from the other House, and brought up more titan once, and especially at a period when there existed a more than usual degree of alarm on the subject—he would repeat, that he wait rot prepared to stand up in his place in the House and declare that the universal feeling of the country was against the measure recommended by the House of Commons ; more especially when lie remembered that a third part of the people of that country were directly interested in its success, and to know that this universal feeling had been shown by petitions such as those presented on a former night by a Right Rev. Prelate (the Bishop of St. David's), pe itions that looked more like a private cotreapondeoce, and were no bigger than that Right Rev. Prelate's right hand. He (Lord Holland) repeated, that the organ of demo cracy was now the Spiritual Lords on the other side of the House, and the Noble and Learned Lord on the Woolsack. Ile was quite satisfied that the question would be decided by the wisdom snd justice of the House, without reference to the views of any one, and decided in a manner that would be most consistent with their justice and with the safety of the country ; bet their Lordships should re collect that the public voice, if it were not in favour of the Bill, at least was divided on the question. Was it not surprising that those Members of Parliament who were chosen by popular assemblies, were those who had taken the warmest part in favour of the measure? He did not mean to say that the popular opinion was clamorously raised in favour of the measure their Lordships were called upon by the House of Commons to adopt, but he did mean to say that it was a disingenuous argument, and not founded in fact, that any ' thing like a warm feeling had been shown by the people of Ens land against this great and most important measure. He was saris. led, on comparing the expression of public feeling at the present time with what it had been on former OCCARions, that there was in !tritely Ices of that feeling against the Bill. He did not mean to say that the people were clamorous in favour of it.--at least not here —but it would be necessary to recollect that she House was legis lating for the United Kingdom, and that its duty was to pay some attention to that part of it rhich was united to us, especially as that part was the most vulnerable, and where any wound must equally Ware the stability and the greatness of the empire at large. l'here =to hint to be nothing to justify the Right R ev .

Ths Hon. Gentleman then alludes td the removal of Sir Henry 0 willimai and the impeachment of Sir Elijah limper, declaring it to be a great abuse of po wor continue such an arbitrary discretion in the Gavernor.Gencral. It was a system of intimidation which was never suffered to as: but under unqualified despotism. India wu at the present mo ment at the mercy of th- Cosernor ; proscription followed upon proscription, banishment succeeded banishment ; ar.d there ac. tually was practisalin two years, on that continent. more abuses of authority than the Stuarts had ever been guilty of during the whole of the years of oppression preceding their dethronement. He had received a letter during the last month, stating that two indigo planters had been removed from their properties, and set t Out of the country . , without the slightest previous notice. If such proceedings were to be allowed, and individuals We've to be thes removed from their busiuess without trial, lie must say that Inds., was placed in a state of the basest despotism. Their object show!: be to conciliate India; but instead of tint the Board of Control re jetted all memorials sent to them upon die part of the half.came sit on Juries; and although an Englishmen was not allowed hold an acre of land in India, and persons of the half-caste trig! . he in possession of any quantity, Englishmen alone could sit Ofl Juries, and the half-caste were wholly excluded. to Ceylon thry had been admitted, and the results had been eminently beneficial. No argument, therefore, that he could imagine, should prevent them trom doing tbst act of impartial justice to the Dative babe bitants. Ile thought that under such a system they were bound to make the Judges independent, and place the protection of a Jury between individuals and the Government. Mr. ROBERTSON thought that any change in the condition of the Judges would not he attended with beneficial consequences. Mr. C. W. AVYNN said the lion. Gentlemen had argued under a mistake. The Judges were not removable at the pleasure of the Governor, but by the command of the Crown. Every man who knew the colonies, was aware that disputes were constantly arising between the Governors and the Judges, and it had therefore been deemed advisable to retain the power of putting a speedy termina tion to then dissensions. It might be mid they could be impeached, but the delay, the bringing of witnesses. and vatious other conside rations, Eormed insurmountable objections to such a proceeding. The lionourabla Gentleman might, if lie pie sed, bring in a ilia upon that separate subject, but the present one related, as he said before. solely to the payment of the Judges. As to the serving upon Juries.by the Charter all persons were equally liable. Sir C. FORBES objected to the removal of the Judges. fife thought the natives of India were quite as fit to serve on Juries aw British subjects. Sir. SYKES thought it a great abuse, that such confusion ahou'.i take place between the Executive and Judicial Departments ie India. Dr. PHILLI MORE said the Judges were not removable at tl pleasure of the Government, and therefore not liable to the objec tions stated by the llonourable Slember for Montrose. That tine , - tion, however, had no connection with the present Bill. It Ins solely far the pay•nient of salaries. Sir. HUME had no objection to the salaries, but he would mat an extract moot a letter he had received on the subject of Juries, which he thought worthy of the attentlo.. of the House. In cite.: actions there were no Juries in India. These were the words of the letter. Now he objected strongly to a Judge deriding ...ley in cases involving the properties of individuals. The letter goes v.t to say, " In criminal cases, tone of the natives are ever placed ea Juries ; they are composed wholly of Englishmen." The Right lion. Gentleman may say the native inhabitants are entitled sit, but the fact Is none are ever summoned, 60 that the Judge ct - rides solely both in civil and criminal cases in India, because he h: • no Jury in thee one case, and a Jury wholly at his command in , r other. The Right lion. Gentleman ought to consider the dissatis faction which exists on this subject in India. lie ought to ceno forward with some definitive proposition, which would place Ilse no Judges independent of the Governor, and let any British subj A have redress for his injuries in the t'ourts of Law. The transper_ tation of individuals without trial was a monstrous proceeding, a• it one which would keep India dissatisfied for ever, if some alter* , don be not made. Mr. C. W. WYNN said the Hon. Gent. (Mr. Hume) seemed to assume that the Judges in India were totally dependent upon the Government. The reverse was the fact ; a more independent bo.ke of men than the Judges could not be found in India. He 1... d ' never known any body of men whose condect was so littlesubject to suspicion or complaint. The Judges were not the subservient slasoi of Government. and the lion. Gentleman must know the Courts t i t Judicature in India were not under the influence of the local Govern. SO it. As to transportation, it was a right siven to the Compeer by Charter. and held for many years. IT was in return for ttim right that India was opened to British enterprise more fully than it even au before. In his ( )1 r. %Fyne's) opinion, without an infriwa don of the Charter, the present system could rot be altered by OW. urnment until the Charter expired. When that event occurs, it will be fur Parliament to consider the propriety of withholding data power from the local Government of India. Mr. HUM E said numberless cases were known in India *We the Judges had interfered improperly between individuals arid sbe Government. Leaving this part of the subject, he would suggest that a proviso should be made in case of the Oise •ce, illness, at sudden death of any of the Judges, to empower the Government to appoint a Barrister temporarily to fill the situation. Mr. C. W. WYNN conceived that the lion. Gentleman's re pose! would create a strange anomaly. A Barrister should at se a Judge, and then sink into a Barrister again. Since he (Mr. W.) had the honour of filling his present situation, he had never heart: any complaint urged against the practice of the Courts or the ce's. duet of the Judges in India. lie (Mr. Wynn) had never befo a heard of the case of the indigo planters adverted tee by the Hein Gentleman (Mr. Hume) in a former part of this debate. Sir C. FORBES moved an amendment to the clause mouthing the amount of the Judges' salaries. Sir C. COLE secrnded the motion. Mr. W. IV YNN said the proposed amendment only coons. plated an increase of about 2(101. per annum. The amendment was agreed to. Mr. HUSIE said it was the practice when a Judge died &ging the first year of his arrival in India, the year had *nix it ipetpased ruYager,olo althi•ugh pired, to pay the year's salary to his family. Nov ke u an amendment, that when a Judge (lied upon the rum same allowance should be made to his family.

Mr. WYNN explained. After a few words from Mr. H. Stunt* and Sir r.
