I, I' Mr. -UMW THE BRIT]. S PRESS . LONDON, TUESDAY, APRIL 27, 1819. We received last night some German Papers, c!ie of sh eh coot:rig.* the following inteliigence ►•slrecting the Spaotrl► exped►tion fitting out fur S lath America : fIItAtIA, MANCH 21. We leprn by accounts from Cobs, obit the expedition, the mull of the last efforts of Spain, will sail in the month of June. It is, however, coosidered as iinprulsa lile that is 1.311 leave Cad.a before the 10th of August. Ili h.re my di parlor, Com Cadiz, six wetks ago, nothing an. woof. ditat it would he 10 WWII Si sea. It would be dans full to form a just idea of the element• of this expedition. A small cumber of Officers shrived enthusiasm, but the veatest dissatisfaction prevailed among the soldiers, who viccivr.l neith. r pay nor clothing. An order sent from Mad. id directs the strictest ex @mutation to be made among the Staff and the Officers Le. longing to the exp. di lion, its order to discover and to expel those who are Fie-(masons. Nothing could he more coin. richly ridiculous and shined thin such a measnre, if this is the iirtirotiou of it ; hat its real übjeit is hi ihseover the went,. esof Ani.ther fsr icor , dang,runs association , ahith it is sail spread rapidly in Spain.

Flanders Papers receive(' to the 9.34 inst. con tain the following particulars relative to the Brits- lo plot : *Bruns, APRIL 21. Ihr Court of Assizes will begin, on the 24th of this enoo.ll, the pi-oral-dicta% agaiisti the persons accused of 101 al. rh •'1 to break out last Nor 'ober.

Ou Thms,lay neat General HART will certainly briog forward- a notion fur repealing the laws now in force in Ireland, Moire to the imposition of fines on town-lands in which illicit stills may he found. A Meeting or Nobility mid Gentry, landholders in Ireland, WWI held yesterday on this subject, a report of abide is Kiser in 01If lift ceding columns. It will he seen by an advertisement in the front of our Paper, that Mr. OwLtr, of Lanark, a gen tleman well knows' to the public by his philan thropy and attention to the internal economy of the cousdr, has offered kunstlf a (7andirlate fur the Writ in the representation of the bOrouglis of Lauark, &c. vacant by the death of the late Sir J. B. liIDDLLL. Mr. OWEN has very strong claims to the honour which he solicits, and would prove a valuable aelltion to the miscrllauy of which the Imi.erial House of Commons is composed. Of the purity of his views, the following priss.sge in his Address stfurets a satisfactory assurance :—" I have ale patrot.gr," says Mr. OWEN—" I raps•ct noise ; for a h o rs. r may lie in power I will not a►k a private favour fur in3self or others." Tile approaching discussion of the Catholic Q 1..11011 will he one of the most interesting that iniportent subject has rile undergone. On inter discussions the force of intolerance, the alit in. 111 war, and the hostility of Ministers, alter this.% tied the voice of reason and toleration. 13 , 1! 1r...., untwithstanding the efforts that have been in id.. Muir in Billow, and is Ireland, to raise the ty of •• No Popery!!" the Protestants of the Einpire have resisted with becoming inde peniklirt lOC of those who would excite them isolust their fellow-suLjects, and who would xposs them to the runtempt, the odium, and the ex,cralion. of am eillighteireil world. Of course, upon a questa/II like this, we cannot expect to find ail men una.ninous, we are therefore 'wither i.tar pri.rd nor story to see a few resolutions awl a few pelrtwus preseuted by a few bigots aglllllSi the ‘ .‘at act of a natiaa's liberation. But the peo- Fe of Englisisil are not parties to these measures, ii i rriteirt and wretched as they are, they only tend to sue* how much tile progress of liberal irptiiinirs has t0....1,1iLd ho.o oar csorititry the issistskeu and (mil- Awar eloievous palsy which held the disqualifieation of the Catholics as wise and necessary ; as if the Pro levant could he more happy because the Cathode was enslaved —so if the security of one part of the empire depended upon the depression of the other. The situarion of our *affairs, like the temper of our people, is peculiarly favourable to the measure of Emancipation. We are not now alarmed lay the threats of a dining and powerful enemy—eve are no longer harassed with a destructive war; bap pity resting in the lap of peace, 'we can look round us e ith security. This is the blessed hour of trailquillity which Penvillence has given, and the hest way it can be employed is in re dressing the wrings of our people. But it is said the (7atholics have no wrongs to be redressed— they have toleration—end they are cooly excluded from the honours of the State. If by toleraion be meant, that they can go to their otters and adore the living God without molestation nr punishment, we readily admit that in this sense they have totem lion; loot if by toleration be meant that they have the free rights of citizens—that they possess those !privileges %stitch loyal men ought to possess—whirls every, freeman inherits—a latch none lout slaves are alenied—then v.e do say that the Catlolice...huve not toleration. 11'e will motion a few of their grievaeces: No Catholic can be a Judge, a King's Counsel, a hatter iu Chancery, Chairman of a County, Suh.Slwriff, Mayor, Alder man, Common Councilmen—li. is not a Freemool of soy Cotpuration—he is not entitled to any col legiate honours, no matter how great the extent of his learoitig or lass talents—in fact, from most of the adoositagco of trade, from most of the distinctions of profession, tool from the dearest rights of a free man, the Catholic is excluded—and why is he ex cluded ? beconse he is sespected—and why is lie suspected ? because be is oppressed. There are some men who think that the Catholics canunt forget Ilie injuries they have suffered, and therefore they would have those itojoirtes utornitigated and eteritel. But this policy is weak maid wicked ; it is the apology a hich cowards make for cruelty. By this policy, oppression would never have an end, and peace and security would never shed their blessings upon nations. We tarn away from these men, and we say to the Parliament, Do not trifle thus with the dictates of justice—do loot hold up your un founded suspicions against the claims of your fel low-subjects--nor think that your mere assumption will weigh down the force of truth, and the test of experience : for see how both refute you. Dur ing the present reign, many of the mole odious penal laws were repealed, and the Catholics were restored to mall valuable immunities. Have they in coy instance abused the privileges they received ? as Magistrates, have they been corrupt or &stolid ? as citizens, have they been dangerous or useless Ss soldiers, have they shewas the wont of courage or of devotion to your cause ? You have often led them to fight against your Catholic fors ! When did they turn their backs upon you ? Did the Artielre of their Faith, iu the hour of danger, prevent them from fighting your battles ? Not at all ! Then, if they have deserved the priiileges they possess, what reason have you to assume that they will abuse the privileges they clank, in the event of their obtaining them ? We lot g a,f you to judge of the Catania:s as you would judge a I' any other people, as you would wish yourstlves to be judged—by their actions—by the whole trout of their conduct for the whole term of lion lives. If you find, by clear and demunsto At% e proof, that they lave been eileinies to liberty, rot tows 1.1 the Constitution, disloyal to the Thome, and !trios-lora ous to the comity, exclude them, because Maly to them would be destruction to you; but, oia the other hand, of the Catholics have meted as brace soldiers, as loyal citizens, and as good men, eman cipate them. It will make you great in the ryes of the world, and it will make you inviolable. The union of the people is the stability of nations. It will throw a ray of glory around the Thaose—the louse glory which is reflected from the nea-burn liberties of a people. Judge of the Catholics by their actions, if you would act justly. If wit, you may talk of Couutils that they uever heard—of dangers that you never felt. %When man as deter mined to act uajustly, it is easy to find an excuse fur injustice. But with what face can the Catholics be charged with dangerous views? Can we tom-nails the anon strous proposition that a petiole who, whilst they were disqualifietl, have heels loyal, will loecamie traitors the motorail they are free ? II the Catho lics are received into the temple of the Coolotitu lion, will they set it ou fire ? To suppose this, is to suppose they are mad as well as disloyal. If you met an oppressed and weary traveller, espeard to the .toornis 01 heaven, and the 111fIre enercileas persecutions of maii—if )ou gave him protection and security—if you brought b u n to your bible, and shared with hum the honours and the enjoy ments of your household, would he destroy the seat of his own security amid repose, under whose ruins he as well as you must he buried ?—would he not rather, participating HI all your comforts, in all your freedom, feel with you a common intr. rest is their preservation? He who reasons flow human nature, may find some force in these obser vations; but he who argues from his prejudices and his fears, will despise them. We appeal not to such men—but to the friends of justice and of liberty we say, redress the Catholics—vindicate this empire from the degradation which a vice so cowardly amid so mean as bigotry brings upon the character of a nation.

As the schooner had been seen for some time before her arrival, there was au amazing concourse of people assembled on the beach, and the novel nature of the arrival of ten or a dozen persmis, habited in silks mid turbans, with daggers and luog beards, to 110 small degree attracted the attention of the inhabitant', whose curiosity had beets raised to the highest pitch by the different accounts of the beauty of the fair Circassian ; and had not a roach been provided at the water's edge, I much doubt if his Excellency and suite would have reached the without considerable difficulty.
