einster, and Connaught, called for Parliamentary reform, or what was sailed Catholic Emancipation ? To which itiwas answered, no ; this WAS not their ob ject, but what they wished to be relieved from was the payment of tythes. We find then that the oh- Jeff; now pursued, of seats in Parliament, and chief utfices ut trust and dignity, were not then. and in deed eoulu not he, even in the co-.templa:ion of the Irish Catholic , , at the time of the hid' rebellion ; these were ohjeCt., about which the lower orates that religious community could have felt no interest whatever; and I firmly believe, that the present question, even if carried, would be of as little avail to the mass of the Catholics of Ireland as any of those objects were, which excited their leaders to fo. ment the late disturbances in that country. But, roe Lords, whilst you are called upon to give the Catholics of Ireland that which, as a body, would he of little or no service to them, I must at the sante time contend, that whilst you give but little, you part with much, Which not enriches them, but mAkes you poor indent. Considerable indulgencies have already been granted to the Catholics of Ireland, and various penal and severe statutes against them have been repealed dur ing the present reign. Not that I complain of those relaxations, or apprehend that the indulgencies already granted will prove of any pernicious consequence, provided you do nut proceed to grant them what still remains. I care not, my Lords, how much the Irish Catholics enjoy under the State; but take away the few salutary and pru dent restrietions which still remain, and they would be the State themselves, and possess almost the whole sovereign power and jurisdittion. Upon this subject. my Lords, there is another matter which ought to be taken under our serious consideration, as connelted with the present question. Supposing the few remaining restrittions to be removed, and the prayer of the petition to he granted, would the Catholics of Ireland he satisfied with this ? and would they not feel encouraged to ask for something farther? I am the rather induced to propose this for your consideration, because, although I acknow ledge the present petition from the Irish Catholics is couched in cautious and rrspettful language ; I think I perceive in it expressions which chew that they are not satisfied wall the test which they are at present obliged to take, and which they seem to consider as a hardship imposed upon then'. The conclusion is. that they expeft you must give up the test altogether. Such is the effeet of concession. I do not melt; to complain of the indulgencies of the Irish Legislature ; but I fear that in their effeCts they have produced but little satisfaCtion. The Homao Catholics of Ireland applied a few years ago to have the privilege of the eh:Clive franchise. It was grant ed them ; but even then they looked to farther con cessions; and I may veirore to say they would do the same now, sapposing the objeft of their present application was obtained. My Lords, I hesitate not to say. that I consider the law as it now stands, with respea to the Roman Catholics, as the outwork of the establishment, civil and religious, of this coun try; as such, I call upon you here to make your stand, and to defend it ; for be assured, that it you give it up. you will ;lave to fight for it again, and under very considerable disadvantage. Loose, in discriminate concessions, without a view to all rela- Live circlimstanies, Are, in my opinion, had policy. I giant, thac :he former concessions to the Irish 'An Cathlgics were beneficial, inasmuch as the • old penal statutes against them were severe and op pressive ; at the same time I cannot help remark ing. that whilst during the two rebellions in 1715 and 1745, Iteland was tranquil ; since the conces sions have been granted, a rebellion has broken nut in that country. These concessions were of little consequence as to the substance of them, but not s as to the moment when they vc, re grants 1 ; for they served to throw the country in a vete of irri tation. and to excite a pertinacity in the Roman Catholics of Ireland to makq farther demands. I therefore, my Lords, cannot but give it as my opi nion, that the wisest method to adopt towards them is to make them sensi:ile that it is your determina tion to adopt towards them a steady system of po licy. The general rule in all well regulated go vernments, I take to be, that those invested with power and magistracy, should conform to the esta blished religion of the country. This was the case in ancient times, with regard to Athens and Rome ; and, in modern times, in almost every stale, with one or two exceptions. It has been thus in Hol land —in the elective monarchy of Poland—in the cantons of Switzerland, Sic. Such also was the opi nion of our glorious deliverer (afterwards King William), who being consulted just before the Re volution, gave it as his opinion, that new laws ought nut to be introduced, nor old ones abrogated on the sonjed of religion. The only places which form an esception to this general rule are France, which, in t' e Nati( nal Assembly, proclaimed the equality of all religions, and the United States of America; but the experiment has not proved successful, and from accurate observers and travellers, it has been Viand, that the only cleft ha; been, to produce a spi rit of indifference to religion. The eat on of the mo tion now prposed by the Noble Baron would go to the Repeal of the Corporation and Test Ads of this Country (the former of which was principally shred ad as a guard against the Di oienters, and the latter against the Papists), of the Bill of Rights, and the Ad of Settlement. Is there any Noble Lord present who is prepared to go itch lengths as these ? Upon the whole, thei , !deem it no; too &noels us ma, ill call upon you to cling to that system of ia ws by which you have hitherto enjoyed whatever is VA lusble. It is by an adherence to these laws, that you will at up to the 'virtu ps.licy, and thus hand down to your posteri ty, unimpaired and unchanged, what you yourselves have deemed your choicest birth-right. I confess, my Lord. that the speech and motion, of the Noble I.rd this evening appear to me to go to the most alarming event. The motion roars no dotinSion between S , -.11 air; and the Established Chinch, whilst at the stole time it points art no pi - AR:ell benefit likely to result from the ad op•ion of it.— The simple qurnion at present is, wrcther it be ex tdient nor to refer the Petition to a Committee? Av iv c't'J'Aion I have stated to he to the general principle; but whatever be the !pound of objedion you may take op. you will of course feel it to be Your duty to mist the motion. I sit down declaring .to lie my Jet -rmination to supp,rt the ere-sent sys tem ornJcrwhich this c. uatry has ro long Cur is4d." The Duke of CUMBEIL.AND thottAht the sen titscati of the natio* were against as appeared ' from several V . :el:ions which bad Already been pre senteJ, anti others which were preparing Against it. Earl SPENCER denied, that the prayer of the Petition went to the establishment of the Ronan Catholic Petition, or to the repeal of the Aa of Se!. Element. Ms Lordship concluded with supporting the motion. Viscount SI DMOIT 111 declared, that while he was willing to go the whole length of toleration, lie could not go the whole length which the Ndble Lord who proposed this motion had suggened. He believed the chat-after and views of the Roman Ca tholics to he upright and sincere; but he was sorry that they were placed in such situations, when obe dience to the impulse of what they considered to be duty might prove disastrons to the country. His Lordship then took a retrospeCtive view, from which be inferred, that, from the Reformation down to the Revolution, the necessities of the times had imposed those measures which had been adopt ed against the Catholics, and that no instances could be produced, in which Protestants and Papists had agreed in exercising the Government of the country. " Let us," said his Lordship, " preserve our Protes tant King and Protestant Parliament. A Pro testant Parliament preserved this country from the danger of a Popish King. Let us follow the example of our Protestant deliverer (King William), and whilst we treat with respea our Ro man Catholic fellow subiefte, take guard against their acquiring additional power in the state; fur of this we may be assured, that every step we take in this matter will be attended with danger." ' Lord MULGRAVE thought the question should not have been brought forward at this moment, as it could only tend to revive religious animosities ; his confidence in the expediency of the measure was considerably shaken, when a question of such deli cacy. and such importance, was agitated at this time. lie thought there were sufficient reasons for not going one step further, and he should vote against the motion, Lord HOLLAND—" My Lords, I confess I thought that the Noble Baron who opened the de- I bate, had so completely forestalled all the ohjeaions, that could possibly be urged against his moti in. as to leave m! nothing new to aid. I find, however, that there is somethiag for me to answer, and that other arguments have sprung up in the debate, which he could not possibly have foreseen. The arguments of two Noble Lords and a Noble Viscount have fill ed me with surprise ; for if they could be Made out, they would he produaive of the greatest calamity to Ireland. With one of these Noble Lords, though this is the first time I ever had the honour of sitting in this House with him (I.;ird Ilawkesbury), I never agreed, and I fear I am not likely to agree now, but I hope it never will make any difference in our friendship; I trust I shall not so completely mis take the ohjea of the motion, as he and another Noble hoed (Mulgrave) have done. It appears to the from the arguments of the Noble Lord, that the House ouglit to go into a Committee, for the pur poSe of rescinding all those horrible measures of em ersion which have been granted to the Catholics but when I heard the Noble Viscount (Sidmnuth) on the same side, talk of the tranquillity of Iteland, the tire& of these concessions, I did expel he would advise going into a Committee for the purpose of ex tending them. The arguments divided themselves into two kinds ; l,t. wh ..ther it were proper to grant any thing to the ItompriCatholics; and, 2dly, whether the present were a proper time ? Upon these two species of argument I shall not occupythe Ilonse at anygreat length. It is a strange objea ion to my Noble Friend's mation to say that he proposes an entire repeal of al! securities of our Constitution. The Noble Lord Dlawkesburyl thinks that my Noble Friend wishes to repeal the Bill of Rights, and the A& of Settle meet. Why, it a stranger, unapprised of the nature of the proceeding, were to come into this House, he would conclude, from the speeches of the Noble Lords, that the objea of the Petition was to make the Roman Catholics the kings of the country. The Noble Viscount says, it is impossible that those who objeaed to the minor claim of the test ea, could give their assent to one of so much greater extent as the present; this is a strange argument. The motion is for a Committee, in which one ni in may vote for one indulgence, and another man may be for granting an indulgence of a di feient .kind; but to refuse the motion, you must be pre pared to say, that the laws respeling the Ro man Catholics are complete, and no firth-r con cession whatever must be granted, or that this is not the proper time for the application. The Noble Secretary (Hawkesbury) has drawn a dis tinaion between civil rights and political power, and he contends that no country would aimit subjea to the enjoyment of the letter without a test. This argument, I think, cannot be consistently urged. A Noble Lord says, toleration to the Roman Catholics is now complete. Does he mean to say, that fur the enjoyment of civil rights, persons of that persuasion should be admitted to sit in both Houses of Parliament, but that they ought to be excluded, lest the indulgence should bring them into posses sion of political power. I fancy, however, that with out political power civil liberties are not very secure. I have lied lately an opportnnity of knowing the state of Ireland, and I do know that the state of the Roman Catholics, in their present exclusion, is herd and galling. We boast of the Constitution ot Eng land. We call upon the people to submit to priva tions, to secure to them the enjoyment of that Con stitution. Now, does the Noble Lord think that it must not diminish the love of that Constitution, and the temptation to submit to privations (Or its support, if the full enjoyment be withheld? It, at the time of the Union, you agreed to that mea suse, meaning, however, to refuse the full benefit of the Constitution to the Catholics, I say it was a delusion, and the Irish Catholics have not the ad vantage which they expc'ted from it. There is another g, ievance which in the present state of the Irish Catholics is felt, particularly in the army, which is deprived of the service of men of courage and talents, who, but for the disabilities that now exist, would fill its ranks. This grievance strikes me the more forcibly, as I have had lately an opportu nity of seeing Irishmen sealous in the service ..f an °time country (hi, Lordship is jun returned from bpai.), who had left their own on account of the obstacles thrown in their way by their religion.— The army is remarkable for 4 high sense of ho nour, and, as the grievance to which I allude comes in collision with it, the tired is the greater. A Re- Smiting ser,ieitat may so into a country town i's Ireland to beat tip for recruits, and he may pi-I mam them the free exercise of their religion should they enlist with him. No inconvenience will be felt upon that suhjeEt, while they remain in Ireland ; but suppose the regiment should be sent to hi:gland, what is the case then ? The Roman Catholic sol dier is ordered to go to church, and he has no op portunity of going to mass to preform worship ac cording to the fors* of his own persuasion. Is not this a great grievance ? and, as a Noblo Friend sug gests to me, Catholic officers, when they come here, are siihj?& to the same inconvenience. The Noble Secretary of St.IIA says, the Catholics do not care about the question, and for this he quotes the autho rity of Arthur O'Connor and Dr. M‘Neven ; but I think, that however competent these two men may be to speak for themselves, they are not com petent to answer for the whole of the Catholic body. It is strange that the Noble Lords should boast so much of the Revolution of i tied, holding the arguments which they do. Does the Noble Secre tary mean Niel, that if James the Second had net been a Papist, Englishmen would have submitted to his arbitrary ads? If religion were any thing but a secondary objeiL, if it had peen merely the ease, it would greatly tarnish in my eyes the great and glori ottszra of 1688. If Popery only wasthe queition,and King William bad convened a Popish to a Protestant Government, he would have deserved great praise ; but I think that the revolution of 1688 was of a higher nature, and upon a broader basis. I think it was more against arbitrary principles than she casual influence of the Catholics at that time. The Noble Lords say, that the Catholics do not care about the indulgence which is sought, and yet the Noble Viscount adds, that the result of the question, if grant , would be to grant the state it se lf. Now, I think, iiky Noble Friend has proved i rrefr a gably that the Catholics, supposing their claims to be allowed, could never arrive at any great influence in this House. The argument was a plausible one, which urged their probable ascendancy in the Parliament of Ire land; but the union has completely taken away all foundation for it. At the time of the Union with Scotland, the opposers of that measure foretold the same consequences which are now insisted upon by those who resist the Catholic Claims; but I do not find that the event has justi fi ed their apprehensions. Why, then, may not Irish Catholics condu3 them selves with the same safety to the Constitution, as the Scotch Members ? We are asked, when we grant this, how do we know what they with ask next, and where their demands will step ? This argument goes to all former concessions. If we are not to grant anything, lest something more msy be demanded, it would be better to shut the doors against all Petitions. We are told that the Catho lics are not satisfied with the test. Ida not wonder at it. It cannot be a very grateful thing to any maa whom you admit into your house, to ask him whether he be an honest man ? It is rather painful to be called upon to take an oath, that you are not traitors. It it were a general rule for all Members to take the oath, no man would think any thing cf it ; but to be singled out for the purpose, must be a galling distinftion. Now, my Lords, I come to the other objeetion, I mean the time. The Noble Secretary says, it is art indiscreet time, but he has not plained how, or in what manner. lie says also. There is no hope of suneess; cwt I hope, that the bete of this night will thew the. contrary. It is not, I think, very respeafial to tell the Catholic , , that there is a majority in this House against any proposition for granting -them farther indul gence. One Minister's authority may, however, he as good as that, of another ; and we do know, that another Minister, as competent to speak upon the subjeEl as the Noble &crew y, Suds surd, he ne ver would accept of place, unless the Catholic claims were granted. But, it is said, we are at war. Ones the Noble Secretary foiget, that the Minister at the brad of His Majesty's Councils, at a more danger ous time, almost at the very eve of a battle, ran away, because the claim of the Catholics was not granted,?—The Noble Secretary of Stare has assigned another reason, the prodigious power and influence of France over the Catholic conn. ries of Europe.—'Phis is an argument which is likely to last as long as the present ni,!ty.—l do not see, however, why this should prevent us from placing the Kish Catholics no sier the influence of the Government. King kVil liam did not think so. Mere his Lordship read a passage from Bishop Burnet, in which he states, that the policy of France Was to alienate all Catho lic countries upon the Continent from England ) I AM so far from agreeing with the Noble Secretary of State, that I think that this is the time of all others to shew the Catholics of Ireland that they cannot expel from any catholic league or connec tion, the same extent of freedom and indulgence which they enjoy here. If ever there was a time when it was necessary to unite the hearts and hands of all classes of His Majesty's subjetts. it is the pre sent ; and this is only to be done, by giving to all the complete enjoyment of all the benefits of the Consti tution. If the laws respefting Catholics are not com plete, I believe in my heart, that they cannot stand as they are. I think it impossible that three millions of the people of Ireland should remain as they .are, leaving one million to enjoy the full benefit of the constitution from which they are excluded. The history of all Countries thews, that it you cannot secure the beans of the people, which is only to be done by giving them full and complete enjoyment of the country and its constitution, you must have recourse to a coercive system. If the Catholics are to be assured that they never must have that full and complete enjoyment, you must have recourse to that coercive system ; bat I am sure. in the pre sent state of Europe, you cannot wish to try the temper and dispositions of the people of Ireland." Earl CAMDEN considered the present discussion as very unwise at this time. The Bishop of DURHAM thought it highly essential that the principle. of the Fstablithed Church should be Inviolably premed: he prof sled himself no enemy to Toleration, but s &I, that he had read the P:tition with the greatest attention, and he could not :cc any security in any cone-rowans which COU4I be made at present ; he wished the education of the lower classes could be improved; but ho could not find any thirg in the question that cuu:d promote social and domestic happiness. Lord REDESDALE said, as well as he could iinderstaml the Petition, nothing short of equal participation, on equal terms. was *might ; if the Citholics nit have this, thee mow Iwo an equal pa•tici;;aton of the Constitution, both in Church and State.
