Silt he would not controvert the fact stated by the Hon. . -7 .ltientber as to the numbers who had signed the petitions ',resented by him ; and perhapS his reasoning as to th 4 numbers against the measure might apply, if they were taken per capita, in some parts of the country. But even if that were the, fact, he would ask how it was produced? Was it from the good sense of the people, or was it not fetetteAeetppointed feeling, devoid of sense and grace, but stetter marked with bigotry ?—(Cheers.) He trusted that some of those who cheered him in a manner he could not mistake, would attend to what he said, and he wee sure they would ft-el the same indignation that he die. What would the House think of petitions got up in etipu -lous and excited plares, be means such as the circulation of hand-bills like the following : " Since Catholic emancipation first began, not less than fifty millions of unotFending and innocent pertons have be come the victims of Papal vengeance. All the tortures that the fiend, of hell could invent have peen practised— burning, broiling, thumb-screw, rack, pulley," &c.—(He could assure the House be was reading the wool* of the placard. He rejoiced to see the spirit in which they lis tened to its contents, but he wished them to listen a little more, and they would have ample reason for laughter.)— " Infants quartered, and their limbs strewed in the higl - way, their brains dashed out; young girls impaled alive and naked ; women and girls have had their breasts cut off, their bowels blown out with gunpowder ; the arm", legs, noses, and ears of men have been cut off, and their heads cleft ;minder ; bodies have been fastened to trees, and their insides torn out; the skins of men stripped off while alive, and nailed to window-framee, &c. Will you then tamely yield to such a priesthood as this ? If you have any bowels of compassion for your tender offspring— if you have one spark of veneration fer your religion or country—rouse from your slumbers, for the fee is at hand! The man who votes for Catholic emancipation strengthens the strong holds of Popery, is an enemy to God and his country, and little better than a traitor to his King !" Such was the document circulated in the West of Eng- land, until it was stopped by the Magistrates, and it pur ported to have been printed at Bath, Was he wrong, then, when he said that arts were resorted to, which Hon. Members who resisted the measure now pending would themselves stigmatize and disavow? But this was not all —in a book late:y published on the present state of Italy, and dedicated, by a singular coincidence, to the Hon. Ba ronet, the Member for the University of Oxford, the author, some exclusive Protestant, had stated that he found in one of the towns through which he passed the follow ing inscription :—" In honorem beats' deiparse Virginis," which be hail thus ignorantly translated, " In honour of the blessed Virgin co-equal with God," terming it a shock ing piece of blasphemy, and asking how a Prosestant could travel in a country in which his eyes were censtantly in sulted by such disgusting inscriptions ? Sir EDWARD KNATCHBULL was sorry that the Hon. Member had not saved himself the trouble of reading, and the House the trouble of hearing, the placard he had exhibited, because at an earlier hour o f the evening the contents of it had been fully detailed by others. —(Hear, hear.)—He could not believe that it had been wetted on the walls of Bath by the enemies of Emancipa tion ; he thought it much more likely that it proceeded from the friends of that measure, in order to cast au un merited stigma upon those who resisted the invasion of the Constitution now contemplated.—(Hear, hear.)—The Hon. Member had spoken of the "glorious majority" of Friday night. It seemed to him (Sir E. Knatchbull) that the minority was at least very respectable, and certainly he was very fir from wishing to partake in any of the glory of their opponents. Thus much he would say, that the minority would have been the majority, if those who formerly resisted concession had remained true to their principles.—(Much cheering.) Mr. DENISON.—The Hon. Member for Oxford had alluded to the election of 1826, when, as he said, the people were deluded by many of their Representatives. He could only say, that when he stood for Surrey, in 18 9 6, he had stated distinctly at the poll that he should vote for the Catholic Claims, anti on that principle he had been retnrned by a large majority.—(Hear, hear.)—As the Hon. Bart. had talked of an appeal to the intelli gence of the Country—on this point he (Mr. Denison) begged to call the attention of the House to a sin gular document he held in his hand.—(No, no, no, from one sitle—hear, hear, hear, from the other.)—After i.!:e debate of Friday, he had had occasion to go into country, and he found that Surrey, by a County Meet ;"4B, was about to set an example to others, and thus to ettempe to intimidate the Duke of Wellington and the Home Sepeatary.—(Hear, and laughter.)—ln the neigh bourhood of ehe town where the meeting was to be held, a number of most inflammatory hand-bills were in distri bution. What would the House think of the placard in his possession ? Would they eonsider that an appeal to the good sense and justice of the people ? He was sure that many of the most respectable individuals who bad signed the requisition in Surrey would treat such a publi cation with contempt, but it was intended not for them, but for the lower orders, and it was entitled " Queen Mary's Days," and it was ornamented with nine prints, exhibiting the tortures and burnings in Smithfield and elsewhere in her reign. The most important ciscumstance was, the source from whence it emanated. His friends round hint, and the Right Hon. supporters of the measure opposite, could have no notion from whence it came ; per haps the enemies of concession and the Hon. Bart., the Member for Oxford, might have some faint idea upon the subject, but they would doubtless exclaim, non tali auxilio. At the bottom of the placard were the following words Price two-pence. Printed for the Religious Tract So ciety, in Paternoster-row."—(Vehement cheering, and continued laughter.)—So that this publication came from an Association whose peculiar motto ought to be, " Do unto others as you would they should do unto you." It must, indeed, be a bad cause that required such 'defenders, s o lo appealed, not to the intelligence of the country, but to the ,vciet passions of the multitude.—(Hear.) Mr. C. PALLMER would not have risen but for the cart of personal appeal made to him. His Hon. Colleague Aid him only common justice when he acquitted him of any knowledge of snob publications. The Hon. Member had said that they were issued to influence a public meet ing ; but be (Mr. Pelletier) thought that the Hon. Gentle le,en would have done better to have waited until that meeting took place, and there to have offered sods consi derations as lie thought might have weight with the people. It was not to lie denied that the people were excited ; they were jestly excited, because they saw what they considered 4 shameful surrender of the Constitution, aggravated and embittered, if it were possible to aggravate and embitter, by what the Right Hon. Home Secretary had gravely called securities. Mr. DENISON added, that earlier in the evening he trod informed his Hen. Colleague of what he should have occasion to state. Lord ALTHORP agreed that his Hon. Friend (Mr. Denison), at the election in 1826, hail openly and fairly stated to his constituents the vote he intended to give upon rho Catlukc Question. He wished to know whether the other Hon. Member for Surrey (Mr. pallmer) had pur sued an equally straightforward and manly course?— (Cheering from all sides.) Mr. C. PALLMER hardly felt justified in occupying ea much of the time of the House on a matter merely per eorial ; but the question put to him required an answer.— At the election in 1826 he had not made up his mind upon the subject, and he had therefore disdained to give a pledge, although if lie had chosen to do so—it was well known to many Hon. Members who heard him—he might have ob tained double the number of votes. Dr. LUSHINGTON congratulated the Hon. Member on his recent discovery, that at a contested election he ought to claim the confidence of his proposed constituents by conceding his sentiments upon great public questions : he was to disguise his opinions, that they might not be construed into unconstitutional pledges. His object, per haps, was to leave the voters in doubt, that he might thereafter take any course that best suited his conve nience. —(No, no.) —Upon what had the Hun. Gentleman refused to give his pledge? Upon any new question? Upon any topic that required fresh and long investigation ? Upon any question demanding ail the learning and all the talents of the Hon. Member for Surrey? On the con trary, had not the Catholic Claims been agitated for the last thirty years, and so fully discussed in speechee, pain. phlets, and newspapers, that even the Hon. Member must despair of throwing any new light upon the subject? One word in answer to the Hon. Member fur Oxfiael ; he ' might, and no doubt would make an admirable Represen tative for - the University; but he had assumed to himself an office for which he was not equally well qualified—that of a confidential adviser of the Clown ; his advice was that Parliament should be dissolved, and that the Catholic Question should be made a matter of discussion and contest at a general election. Did the Hon. Bart. recollect 1807, when the "No Popery" cry was raised, and the most violeut outrages committed? He (Dr. Lashington) should never forget what had then occurred, and with good rea eon ; he was at that time a candidate for CreatYarmouth, and he was seized by the anti• Catholic mob, which attempted to throw him into the river. Scenes like that should never occur again.—(Hear, and laughter.)—For one he would say, that if Ministers were g uilty of the imprudence of taking the ad v i ce o f t h e lion. Bart., they would de serve impeachment. hie wished also, in answer to what had been stated about the intelligence of the country, to mention, as he was authorized to do by a most respectable and influential member of the Society of Friends—that the great majority of that body, formerly ot►nsidered so hostile to the Catholic claims, were now decidedly favour able to concession. Mr. WELLS was understood to vindicate the Honour able Member for Surrey from the aspersions which had been cast upon him. . _ Mr. O'NEILL wished to put only one question to the Hon. and Learned Member for Tregony (Dr. Lushington.) As he had characterised in the strongest terms those who did not give pledges at elections, he begged to know what terms the Hon. and Learned Gera!emu) would employ to characterise those who having given pledges to their con stituents had violated them ?—(Loud cheering.) A MEMBER, whose name we could not learn, stated that as a freeholder of Surrey, he had been unable to obtain from one of the candidates at the last election (Mr. C. Pallmer) any information as to his intentions on the Ca tholic Question. He had subsequently tried privately to eltisfy himself on the subject, and had stiil been unsuccess ful.—(Hear.) Sir H. SMITH (we believe) remarked that after the recent conversions it was idle to talk of pledges. If pledges had been realised, the minority of Friday night would have been a majority.—(Hear.) Sir R. INGLIS felt it necessary to notice very briefly some things that had been said. His sole object was to preserve the Constitution of the country in its integrity ; and he was satisfied that if an appeal were made to the prcple, a majority of Members would be returned, who would support his Majesty in his assertio❑ of his rights, and in his vindication of the Constitution. In what he had said regarding an election, Le had referred less to 1807 than to 1784, when the India Bill was brought for ward—unquestionably a had measure, but not so iniqui tous as that now proposed. The King was then betrayed by his Ministers; he appealed to his people, and by his people was nobly supported. He hardly expected that the Hon. Member for Limerick would have attempted to make bias (Sir R. Inglis) responsible for the contents of a book, because it happened to be dedicated to him. He begged leave also to state, for the information of the House, for the Hon. Member must know it, that as soon as he (Sir R. Inglis) had discovered the error, he had taken care to have it corrected, and had procured the sheet in which it occurred to be suppressed. Though not responsible he had done what he could to remove the prejudice against the author on the score of his blunder. One further observa tion would he sufficient : the Hon. Member, on a petition from Whitechapel, had produced a hand-bill from Bath, thereby verifying- the proverb, of going to Bath by way of Whitechapel. The petitions were laid upon the table and ordered to be printed. Mr. BELL presented three petitions from parishes in Northumberland, and two from Norfolk, against concession to the Rom•m Catholic Claims. Sir J. ASTLEY presented a petition, signed by about 5,000 freeholders of Wiltshire, also against concession. The Hon. Baronet observed, that the signatures were all voluntary, no undue means having been used to obtain them, or they would have been far more numerous. He thought Ministers extraordinarily culpable in not putting down the Catholic Association lung ago, as they had the power to do if they bad chosen to exercise it : the present crisis had been brou7ht on by their want of energy. Mr. BENETT bore testimony to the respectability of the signatures, although he could not concur with the pe titioners in their opinions. Considering the immense po pulation of Wiltshire, 5,000 signatures were a very small number. He returned thanks to the Noble Duke and his Colleagues for their courage in bringing fin-ward and per severing in the measnre of relief for the Roman Catholics. Mr. BARING referred to a County Meeting once held at Devises, at which a petition for concession to the Ho man Catholics had been carried by a large majority. - Sir J. ASTLEY agreed that such a meeting had been held ; but as the number of persons present did not ex ceed three or four hundred, it could not be supposed that this small body spoke the sense of the whole mass of free holders and inhabitants. Sir JOHN AS ILLY believed he had befere omitted to say Oat this petition spoke the general sense of the county. All 'the signatures had been obtained in three following weeks. No undue influence bad been used for that pur pose; but when it woo publicly known that the petition lay for signatures, the people went, and every body who signed it did so voluntarily. Ordered to be printed. Mr. BANKES had fourteen petitions to present from different parishes of Dorsetahire. Indeed, thele were so many petitions, that it was hardly likely they could come to the business of the day until the House was nearly ex hausted. He wished, therefore, on his own part, and on the part of those with whom he acted as to this measure, to state that they had no intention of debating the Bill, or dividing upon it that night ; and he suggested, therefore, that snore time might he allowed for presenting petitions. It was his intention, and that of his friends, to waive the debate, and have a division on the second reading, and at every subsequent stage of the Bill.—(Cheers.) Sir EDWARD KNATCHBULL need not tell the House that the attention of the people was excited, with regard to this question, to a degree of intense anxiety. He perfectly concurred in the propriety of the suggestion made by his Hon. Friend, and hoped it would be agreed to by the Right Hon. Gentleman. But he wished to observe, that in consenting to this arrangement he did, for his own part, and on the part of others, object to being considered as having his opinion concluded from so doing as to this Bill. He objected that any conclusion of opinion should be in ferred front the acquiescence of the House. It was very well known that this was a measure of immense import ance; and no opportunity, he thought, should be lost to give it that opposition which, in his humble judgment, it deserved. He wished the opinion not to go forth that they had ceased to oppose the Bill. It was only against that opinion he prote,ted. Mr. Secretary PEEL entirely acquiesced in the arrange ment suggested by the Hon. Member for Dorsetshire, as it would be probably most convenient to all pa► ties, and was likely to produce a more perfect understanding of the nature of the Bill. A waiver cf any discussion or debate regarding this Bill on the present occasion could not, he thought, be considered to imply any approval of its principles. He should that evening merely tike the opportunity of submitting to their consideration the mea sure, the principles of which could with greater propriety be discussed on the second rea:ling. He consented, there fore, to the proposition for giving more time to the pre- sentation of petitions—indeed l►e was most anxious to give every latitude to the right of petitioning. Sir EDWARD KNATCHBULL declared his inten tion at every convenient opportunity to oppose the Mr. Secretary PEEL reposed entire confidence in the assurance of the Hon. Member, but he wished that there should be an understanding that it was the general opi nion of the House, and that other Hon. Gentlemen con curred in it. Mr. W. HORTON did not rise to mate any observa tion on the arrangement now proposed. He rose only to state, that he had abstained, in the discussions that had taken place, from adverting to some observations that had fallen from his Right Hon. Friend (Mr. Peel.) He was most unwilling to interrupt the discussion of this great question by any considerations of a personal nature; but he would take an early opportunity of speaking further on the subject. Mr. G. MOORE was quite of the same mind with the Hon. Member for Dorsetshire. He had risen also to guard against the imputation, that bY - nequiescing in this arrangement, he was also acquiescing in the plan by which his Right Hon. Friend (Mr. Peel) intended to settle the Catholic Question. (Hear.) But he objected strongly to the precipitation with which this measure was hurried forward. The people bad no time given to them what soever. (Loud cheers and laughter.) Let his Right Lion. Friend, and let other lion. Members, consider how the case really was. The Bill was to be read that night for the first time. It could not be printed before to-morrow, and what time was there then left for its circulation through the country ? lie thought that it was the more desirable that time should he given, because it was perfectly well known that the measure was progressing through the House just at the season when many gentlemen were scat tered through the count, y. Any measure of ordinary im portant.° would scarcely be pressed at such a season—cer tainly the most inconvenient that could be selected, and the least likely to collect the sense of the public at large. Ile would suggest to his Right Non. Friead that the fairest and best course would be to fix the second reading of the Bill fur such a titne as would not arrive till after the Circuits. (General laughter, and cries of " Oh, oh !") He *could tell the House in a few words his reason for saying: so : all the representatives of those places where tlure was a large body of constituents would thereby have a fair opportunity of making them acquainted not merely with the princip:e of the Biil, but of its details, and the people would have the means of judging as to the suffi ciency of the securities contained in it. lonel DA VIES was as anxions to listen to the plibli voice as any Member of the House, but he protested ageinsZ the doctrine which the Hon. Member far Dublin 1, 4 d broached, and which, if pushed to its legitimate conse- • quences, would render that House only an Ituiei n m 7 of D e,. legates, having no votes of their own, but that every inc-a sure was to he circulated through the country before they voted on it, in order that their constituents should direct how they should give their suffrages.--(Cheers. )_H e contended that the Members of that House, when sent there, had power and discretion given then] to Oct for their constituents ; and if they renounced it, they declared them selves unworthy of their trust.—(Cheers.) An Host. GENTLEMAN, whose name we could not learn, rose only to state that he should present a petition from the place he represented in favour of the Catholic Claims. He mentioned this, as it had been represented that his consti tuents were hostile to the Catholic Claims. The petition he had to present was couched in terms which he perfectly approved. It was his intention to present it on the first opportunity. Mr. MABERLY remarked, that if ever there was a question which spread an agitation through the whole country, and which therefore required no further delay for its consideration, the present was one ; for, from almost every part of the kingdom, petitions had been presented against further concessions to the Catholics. What was the use of granting time to circulate the Bill through the country? It might give an opportunity to many of those persons who opposed it to inflame the minds of the people against it. He could not help suggesting to the Hon. Member for Dublin, that when the question had been de termined by so large a majority, after a most extraordinary discussion, in which he must say that there was less tsleut in the IGO Members who then voted against it, than he had ever witnessed before since he had belonged to that House—not one of those Honourable Gentlemen hail of fered a single remedy in any respect applicable to the dis cussion. There was, indeed, a sort of recommendation from the Honourable Member for Norwich, but he had stopped short in his project. From the lion. Gentleman's connection with the Right Hon. Secretary, he ought to bare known, that when lie looked for the dissolution of Parliament, it was highly probable the result would be that he would get nothing by it, and that perhaps ninety out of the 100 Irish Members mould be returned friendly to those concessions which the Hon. Member opposed. Mr. GEORGE BANKES rose to express his desire to support, with his prayer and entreaty, the suggestion of his Hon. Friend with respect to the propriety of granting further time on behalf of the country. Before the next week, an important step would be taken, on which there should be a division.—(Loud cries of hear, hear, and order.)—The Right Hon. Gentleman had said, in his ad dress to the House on Friday last, in reply, with reference to the point of time, that as this ;natter had been known to the public for the period of a mouth, therefore the period of a week in addition to the former period, would be suffi cient to produce all the expression of the sense of the coun try. Now lie (Mr. G. Bankes) believed that the people had been under a delusion with regard to the measures of Governinent.—(Cheers and laughter.)—But so far from gaining information by the statement of the Right Hon. Gentleman, they had only been further deceived.—(More laughter, and cries of hear.)—He defied any man to say that from what hail beets stated by the Right Hon. Gentle man in that House before the measure was discussed, it was likely that any body could have supposed that the Bill would be such as it had turned out to be. The Right Hon. Gentleman's speech had burst like a new light on the country, and the parties who had petitioned before its de livery, ought to be allowed to petition again.—(Laughter and cheers.) General GASCOYNE rose chiefly to ask the Right Hon. Gentleman whether it was his intention to move the appointment of a Select Committee to carry the recom mendation in his Majesty's speech into effect, for a delibe rate inquiry into the whole state of Ireland ?—(llear.) The Gallant General requested the Clerk to read the pas sage, which lie did to the following effect :—" His Ma jesty recommends, that when this essential object shall have been accomplished, you should take into your deliberate consideration the whole condition of Ireland, and that you should review the laws which impose civil disabilities on his Majesty's Roman Catholic subjects." Now by that recommendation he did understand that Parliament should go into a deliberate inquiry into the whole state of Ire land.—(Hear, hear.)—This inquiry should be commenced according to the Royal Speech, as soon as possible, and immediately, he thought, after this Resolution was reported. Mr. Secretary PEEL, in answer to a questigin of his Hon. Friend, must in the first instance, express his sur prise that his Hon. Friend should require more details con cerning a question which had been so fully considered. He hail rather understood his lion. Friend to say the other evening, that the facts he (Mr. Peel) had stated, were so perfectly notorious, that it was even tlnneoessary to confirm them by an official account. Surely any Hon. Friend could never have expected that his Majesty's Ministers should propose this question to a Select Coninaittee of all others.—(Hear, hear.)—Besides, in 1825, the house of Commons bad appointed a Committee for the purpose of considering every question relating to the state of Ireland, with a view to settle the Catholic Question ; but it was expressly excluded from the consideration of a Select Com mittee; because it was felt that the investigation of a question like this, of extreme constitutional importance, could only be safely done by the whole House. Though the word " consideration" was used, it was only used in the sense of a favourable conclusion to the question. The passage in his Majesty's Speech evidently meant, that the same course should be pursued again as before; and, there fore, in the concluding sentence, his Majesty trusted that they would enter on the consideration of this great question with the temper and moderation which would best insure the successful issue of their deliberations. General GASCOYNE--Those are not the words of the King's Speech. _ _ Mr. Secretary PEEL-51y Hon. Friend will find I am very nearly right. Let the Clerk read the passage. The Clerk read to the following effect :—" His Ma jesty recommends to you to enter on the consideration of a subject of such paramount importance, deeply in teresting to the best feelings of his people, and involving the tranquillity:of the United Kingdom, with the temper and moderation which will beat insure the successful issue of their deliberations." General GASCOYNE—I meant the other passage, recommending an inquiry into the whole state of Ireland with deliberation.—(A laugh.) Mr. Secretary PEEL said, that no doubt, he thought; could exist to the meaning of this passage. On three preceding occasions, the House of C om m o ns had pissed Bills to etfect the object which this Bill was intended to accomplish ; but it had never yet been proposed to Sus_ rend the proceedings in order to refer the question to a Select Committee. The House had never thought of transferring a matter of such immense moment to a Select Committee. If the word " consideration" was used, it meant that the consideration should be by the whole House, and he had fulfilled the intentions of his Majesty in bring ing forward the Bill for giving effect to his Majesty's re commendation--(Cheers.) Lord MILTON thought that no very good case had been made out for any delay on the part of the Right Hon, Gentleman. He begged to recal to the memory of the Gallant General, that the first measure of the present Ses sion was to pass a Bill to put down the Catholic Associa tion, and very many Members, of whom . he was one, thought it an act of great severity against that Associa tion. For his own part, and for a great number of other Members—(Cheers),—he could say that they would never have acquiesced in a passive manner, in that Act, if they had not understood that, on theearliest opportunity, the House would go into the consideration of the laws imposing civil disabilities on the Roman Catholics, with the view of relieving them. Lord TULLAMORE (we believe) read some letters be had received from Ireland, stating that on the :3(1 of March the Roman Catholic Association had re-assembled, and - be understood that at the latest period the Roman Catholic Rent was regularly collected as usual.—(Hear, hear.) s Mr. M. FITZGERALD objected to the proposal for delay on the part of the three Hon. Members opposite, which would only afford time for repeating petitions already presented.—(Hear, hear.)—Of all the questions that ever came before that House, that was the most extraordinary, to ask for further deliberation after it had been the sul;- ject of our successive debates for thirty years. It was well for the Gallant General to call for a dissolution, whose electioneering expenses were all magnanimously paid by his constituents ; but the other 657 Members of the House would not much relish it. The Gallant General he had observed, had turned with extreme disgust from that pact of the King's Speech which recommended that this ques tion should be considered with temper and moderation. That was not the part the Gallant General admired.— (Laughter.)—He trusted no compliance would be given with the proposal for delay. Mr. TRANT recollected that the Hon. MeMber for Preston (Mr. J. Wood) last year actually compelled the Chancellor of the Exchequer to abandon a . Bill:relative to the building of churches, that sufficient time might be given to make the people acquainted with its contents..:. Why should not the same course be followed now with regard to a measure of vital importance to the safety of the'country ? Notwithitanding all that had been said about tile folly and faction of those who opposed this measure, he would asser t that the Members of that House were not sent there to re gister the deems of the Duke of Wellington;- but to do their duty twards their constituents, by demanding fur the people of the country time to present their . Petitions— . be heard the Members on that (the Opposition) bide calling the people "foolish," bec a usp theiolipoaed thia owe,/ sure, and when he found they had the faCe to iiiy; that if they yishled to the public voice they would only be (fele, - gat e S, and not representatives, he really must declare, that having come to that side of the House to learn a leison of liberty, he must go back again to' the other side to forget it,.--(Laughter.)—The UOn• Gent)ClPp conclpded by ex pressing a Lope that Government 'Would not ;ilia upon ramming the measure down the throats of the people, with out-giving them an opportunity of expressing their senti mente upon the "subject. Sir R. INGLIS thought the request made to the Govern ment was not by any means unreasonable. When the Hon. Member for Westminster brought forward his 'ilea ' sure in favour of the Catholics, in 1825, the interval that was granted was from a day in March to the 19th of April—(Hear,)---and surely, when the altered state of the case was considered, when the measure was to be brought forward with all the influence that Government could give it, and, above all, when there was so strong a feeling of confidence in the triumphant majority with which the Bill was to be carried, it was surely not too much to ask, that there should be some small delay granted—(Hear. ) Indeed, lie would not press for it, if there were single precedent against it ; but, on the contrary, they were all in his favour.—(Hear.)—He was sure that Parliament had not been so much hurried in the case of Mr. Grattan's Bill of 1813, and, as he bad already stated, a considerable delay had taken place in the Bill of 1825. If they were only to be allowed the time that was already fixed by the Right Hon. Gentleman, it•would scarcely be sufficient to allow of the printing and circulating of the Bill—much less of its reaching Ireland, where it was looked for with so much anxiety. He, therefore, contended that both the House and the country had a right to require more time. Mr. PEEL said that if the proposed delay wet for the general convenience of the House, he should have no ob jection to alter his arrangement.---(Loud cries of "no,eno !" mixed with " hear, hear.")—At all events he was quite ready to answer thejappeal that had been made to him. He had always, from the very commencement of the measure, proposed to leave one week between the intro duction of the Bill and its second reading ; and he thought that this was a very ample allowance of time, after the preparation which his Majesty's Speech must have given the country on the subject, for it was impossible that after that period the country could have remained ignorant of the main features of the measure. It had been stated in the course of the evening that they ought to wait till the law against the Association had been carried into execu tion ; but if they were to do so, he would take leave to say that that would not be in consonance with the Speech from the Throne. The Speech merely recommended that power should be given to his Majesty to maintain Iris just authority ; that power had been given by the Act which had just pissed, and it was, therefore, in perfect conformity with the Speech that they were at liberty to take the measure into consideration immediately. The only question that lie could see wee the grand (mess tion that arose on the principle of the Bill.—(Hear, hear, hear.)—He lead already declared fully and openly that diet principle eras expressly to give relief to tire Catholics.— (Cheers.) —Of that declaration the House would have been in possession for more than a week before the second read ing would 'come on, and they would, therefore, have been fully able to form their judgments upon it, and on the ge neral purport of the Bill. If there were any suggestions to be made, the best time for making them would be in the Committee ; and whether it was for the purpose of proposing new exception', or fresh securities, there would be adequate time afforded at that period. On whatever day he brought fer Ward the measure—whether on that evening or the knowing, he should think it right to give l an interval of an entire week; but further than that, he thought,, there could'be no necessity for; the same time be wished to state that it was possible that be might not be able to bring the Bill forward that evening, in which case he should du it on the following night. Lord HOWICK did not know exactly in what spirit lion. Gentlemen were seeking fur this delay ; but he was quite sure that it must be in the recollection of the House that the Hon. Gentleman (Mr. Burke%) on the first might of the Session, had himself observed that the word " con sideration" clearly meant concession. That was also, lie believed, the general understanding of the country, as soon as the King's Speech was made known, and surely one month was quite sufficient to collect the sense of the country.—(lleate)—Did lion. Members mean to contend that they were to consult every parish, district, hundred and county in the country, upon all the different details of the Bill ? Was that lloti , e a Legislative Assnubly, or was it - •not ? If it was, surely the examination of the details of the measure was their department, and it would be useless to take the sense of the country on that heed.—(Hear.) The Marquis of CHANDOS thought that Hon. Gen tlemen, in asking for delay, • were performing their duty towards the country, as much as the Noble Lord who had just sat down. For hie own parthe went along with the Hon. Member for Dublin (Alta Moore) in wishing for a pause, though he could assure the House that he did not propose it with any factiOus'object.—(Hear.) Lord . CASTLEREAGH /loped 'that the Right Hon. Gentleman would trot consent to any 'delay, especially after it had been stated by Hon. Gentlemen, that the only rea son why they wished for it was that they might raise the country..=-(Hear, hear.) Lord LEVESON GOWER sai I that if the desire to take the sense of the country had come from Gentlemen who had always advocated universal suffrage, or any thing like it, he would at least have given them credit for sin cerity, and thought their remonstrances free from the sus picion and distrust with which he now received them— ( Heer)—or if the question had been of any novelty, he would have admitted that there was some shuw of reason in the request of delay. But this was not the case. Hon. Gentlemen said, " W 'have listened for thirty years to arguments that we are unable to answer ; that office we have left to one or two advocates; and now we are with out them, we want time to think•about what we shall do." Or, in other words, they said, " Up to this time we have been inside paesengers, with our eight-caps drawn over our eyes—(a laugh) ;—arid now that those who arc con ducting the. State carriage have found out the danger, we are willing to be let out, in order that we ni disturb the people." After a few words from Mr. MARTIN, 11Ir. HOULDS-• WORTH, and Lord CASTLE KEA Cu, the titles of Mr. Bankes's petitions were then read.' They were from St. Nicholas and other places in . Dorsetshire, praying that no further concession might be made.ttithe Roman - Catholics.—They were ordered to he printed. • • Mr. POYNTZ presented a petition from Chichester in favour of the Roman Catholics, - and complained of the manner in which the country people were induced to sign petitions against the Catholics. All sorts of absurdities were told them, such as that if the CathOlies came into power, there would be double taxes, a new Pope at Lam beth Palace, &c. Lord G. LENNOX knew of no such measures being adopted at Chichester : he had the honour of presenting four petitions from that city—from the Dean and Chapter, from the Dissenters, from the Clergy, and from the inha bitants ; and he did gat know that in any of those peti tions the same name had been snbscribed twice, though.he would not undertake to say that such might not in one or two instances have been the ease; but so far from pres sing for petitiOnS; he could assure the House that his Noble Brother's advice bad been, when applied to respect ing petitions, to leave the affair entirely in the hands of Parliament.—(flear.) • The petition was then ordered to be printed. Lord STANLEY presented a petition from the Roman CathOlica of Manchester and Salford ; from Coekermouth, in Cumberland ; and from six other places, in favour of the Roman Catholics.—To be printed. • Mr. CHAPLIN presented a - petition from the Nobility, Gentry, Clergy, and Freeholders of the southern subdivi sion of Lindsay, in Lincolnshire, praying that no further oneessions may be made to the Catholics. Tl:e same lion. Member presented a similar petition from the Arch deaCon and Clergy of Lincoln, and from fourteen parishes and yillages in Lincolnshire. Mr. CHAPLIN also presented a petition from certain persons, inhabitants of Lincolnshire, • praying- an Inquiry into the conduct of the Collector 'of Assessed Taxes. Mr. W. POWLETT presented a petition from the Ma gistrates, Clergy, and Inhabitants of Sunderland against the Catholic Claims.' fhe Hun. Member observed, as we understood, that he did nut agree with the petitioners on this subjeCt, although it was his ditty to present their peti. tion. Mr. RICIIARD 11. PHILLIPS pr-sented a petition from the inhabitants of Haverfordwest idfavour of the Ca.. tholia Claims. Th e same Hon. Member then presented petitiOns froni .the Clergy, Gentry o • and Inhabitants of Ha verfordwest, and from the': Congr ega ti ons o f t wo Chapels in that town, r.gainst the Catholics. ESTCOURT presented:. petitions from the Tian bitants of Tetbury, in Gloucestershire; Mallet, and from several other pl aces , aga i ns t th e Catholic. Colonel PEEL. presented simil ar p e titi ons f r om Stone, in Staffordshire, front Spixworth, ❑Norfolk, and taro other pl a ces in the sainecOnoty. , ,. fiom Shepton Mr. EGgRTON Presented a similar petition from Mid (flew ' •' • Sir C. COLE presented a similar petition from the in habitants of Landaff. Lord THOMAS CECIL presented a similar petition from the Inhabitants of StaMford.:: : , Lord E. 'SOMERSET, in- prientinz a petition from M e reton in *the Gloucestershire, against the Catholic Claims, said, th : at'althougl. he had for a long time ta k en the' same Aim , of thiS - rplustion as the petitioners, ye t, when he saw the condition to which It:eland eras now reduced , and trlein he considered that there were Lo other mean s left to allay the ferm en t i n t h a t country, or restore tranquillity to its people, he could not any tensor refuse Lis fitment to tl.. , recommendation contained in his Majesty's Speech—a recommendation supported by the united voice of the country. The Noble Lord then presented similar petitions from the Deanery of Winchcombe, and from the Rural Deanery of Hawkesvrell, in Gloucester. Mr. G... HEATIICOTE presented a petition from the inhabitants of Boston, in favour of the Catholics; and from the inhabitants of Muthil, in Perthshire, against concession. Mr. FELLOWES presented petitions from Thiston and Saxmitmlham, against the Catholic claims. ?Ir. LINDSAY presented a petition from the Corpo ration and Guild of Merchants in Dundee, in favour of the Catholics. Lord MANDEVILLE presented petitions from the Dis senters meeting at the Grove Chapel, Camberwell, and from the Protestant inhabitants of St. Ices, Hunts, against the Catholics. Lord RANCLIFFE, in presenting a petition from Not tingham in favour of the Catholics, took occasion to express his pleasure at the prospect of a final settlement of this question, and observed, that although a petition had been got up' in Nottingham against the claims of the Catholics, he believed the opinions of the great majority of the inha bitants to be decidedly in their favour. The petition against Emancipation had, in six weeks, received only ,000 signatures, while the petition in favour of the Ca tholics obtained 4,550 signatures in as many days. Admiral SOTHERON contended that the petition against the claims of the Catholics was signed by .the most respectable persons in the town of Nottingham, and ob served (as well as we caul" collect from the low voice in which the Gallant Admiral spoke), that he had been in formed the petition in faVour of emancipation was signed by children, and by persons who were confined in the Lunatic Asylum. This information he had received from a gentleman who is the medical attendant of that asylum. Lord RANCLIFFE said, the Gallant Admiral had not, in his opinion, made out a very good case, when the only person he brought against the petition was the inmate of a lunatic asylum.—(Laughter.) Admiral SOTHERON said the gentleman to whom he alluded was a highly respectable gentleman, and not the inmate of the Asylum. Lord RANCLIFFE observed that if that gentleman was not the inmate of the Asylum, he for one wished most heartily that he had been so, for that same gentleman and a pot companion of his, got up the opposition against him (Lord Rincliffe) at the last election.--(Laughter.) Mr. LUMLEY presented a petition from the Protest.. ants of Worksop, in Nottinghamshire; in favour of the Catholics. Admiral SOTHERON presented a petition from several parishes in Nottinghamshire against the Catholics. Mr. LEGH KECK presented a petition from Leicester against concession to the Catholics. . Similar petitions were presented from Cambridge (nine petitions) by Lord CHARLES MANNERS. Mr. L. O'BRIEN presented a petition from several parishes in the county of Clare in favour of concession. Mr. STURGES BOURNE presented a similar peti tido from Southampton. A similar petitioa was presented by Lord CLEMENTS, from Leitrim. General ARCHDALL presented several petitions from the county of Fermanagh against concession to the Catho lics. It had been said (as we understood the Hon. Mem ber (by the Right Hon. Secretary on a former night, that the inhabitants of the county of Fermanagh were favour able to concession, provided it were accompani e d with se curities ; but he was instructed to say they were adverse to concession tinder any circumstances. Mr. Secretary PEEL had not misrepresented the peti tioners ; he had referred only to a petition which be had now before him ; that petition prayed for three thingi-:-- the suppression of the Catholic Association ; the dieran chisement of the forty-shilling Freeholders ; and 'the - pro hibition of the Jesuits. Now what he had said; and what he now repeated, was, that there was not, perhaps, any one of these objects for which the petitioners prayed at tainable, without the consideration of the whole state of lreland.--(Hear, hear.)—The petitioners, 'twas true, were against cOneession—he had never said they were not—but the question ' was, whether. they could not obtain their other objects, and also succeed in their prayer of not grant ing concession ? He was of opinion they would not, and this was the substance of his observations upon the petition to which he bad adverted. Mr. HUSKISSON presented a petition from Lanca shire, in favour of Emancipation. Mr. HUSKISSON presented a petition from certain manufacturers connected with the Silk Trade, praying that the duty may be lowered upon thrown silk, and alio the duty upon foreign manufactured silk. At that mo . - ment, when the attention of the House was so much en grossed with another topic, he would not offer any obser vations upon the subject of the petition, but at a fitting opportunity he would be prepared to show that many and great advantages would follow from a compliance with the prayer of the petitioners in preventing smuggling, and in other respects ; and he hoped that Government would be able to bring forward a measure in accordance' with their reasonable request. The Earl of MOUNTCUARLES presented several Mi.. tions from the counties of Donegal and Cavan; in favour of concession to the Catholics. , • - Mr. SAUNDERSON said that several of the petitions were signed at the instigation of • the Catholic Association . .. For his part, he would not have supported the measure of concession in obedience to the call of the Association ; neither would he do so if the measure were brought' for ward from the other side of the House; but as the measure was brought forward by Government, and on the respon sibility of Ministers,' he would support it (hear, hear',); and impressed with these sentiments, he bad voted in favour of the Resolution of the Right Hon. Gentleman on a for mer night.—(Hear, bear.) Mr. H. GRATTAN. said; that this was a measure of justice, due by the Hon. Member to the Roman CatholiCS who had voted for him at the last election. He rejoiced at the accession of the Hon. Member to the cause of truth, of liberality, and justice.—(Flea••.) Mr. W. PEEL brought up a Report of the number of persons confined in the Debtors' Prison ; and also the number of discharged Insolvents, &e. Mr.. CLIVE presented a petition from Ludlow, in Shrop shire, in favour of the Catholics. Similar petitions were presented from parishes in Radnor, by Mr. F. LEWIS. Mr. GRAT CAN moved for a return of the number of freeholders who voted at. the contested elections in Ireland since 1805, with the names of the candidates, distinguish - - ing the elections in the counties from the towns, with a view if showing that not one half of the votes were re gistered. The Hon. Member presented petitions from parishes in the counties of Dublin and Tyrone, in favour of concession. - 11 r . iIEATIICOTE presented a petition from the city of Coventry in fiVour of the Catholic Claims. . • Mr. FILER, adverting to the 'petitfon which he had . p re sented from the . eity o f C oventry aga i nst t h e Cath?lic claims, observed, that th a t p e ti t i on h a d b een s i gne d by 5,000 persons, while the counter-petition, which had just been presented by his Hon. Colleague, was signed by only 900. Mr. C. PELII AM presented a petition from a Chapelry in Chester, and another from Whit c hu rc h, i n S a lop, against the Catholic claims. • Mr. C.' PALLME.B presented five Petitions from the county of Surrey, against theoCatholk claims. The lion. Member took the opportunity' of strongly impressing the necessity of giving the people time to consider a measure, which the Minister of the Crown himself had allowed, was a breaking in upon the Constitution. - - Mr. BARING reprobated the constant repetition of the same arguments on this subject; denied that there was any ground for delaying a decision upun a question which had been undergoing a discussion for so many years ; and inti mated that if the lion. Member had expressed, at the bet election, sentiments similar to those which he had uttered in that House, he would not have been returned for the county of Surrey. Mr. MABERLY observed that in no single instance had those who condemned the measure introduced by his Majesty's Government stated what other remedy they would propose for the existing evil. -Mr: Alderman 'WOOD said ' that when the Honourable Mesnber offered himself as a candidate for Surrey, his con stituents heard nothing of the illiberal principles which he kid lately promulgated, or be (Alderman Woo I) was sure the Hon. Member would not have had his cordial support. Sir R. FERGUSSON warmly reprobated the hallam "matory placards, with prints, which . were exhibited for the purpose of impeding the progress of . an'Aet calculated to du more good to the country than any,legisl a ti ve measure for the last century. He ttuderstoO r d'that there was i'sub scription for the purpose of raising :a cry of " No Popery," the surplus of which was to he employed in bringing Anti-Catholics into Parliament.' - • The Earl of UXBRIDGE defended the conduct of the Hon. Member for Surrey.. z , Mr. C. PALLMER appealed to his Colleague, whe ther 'at the election fn. the county of Surrey he (111 r. Paihner) had not stated that his impression was decidedly against the' Catho!ics. Mr. DENISON, after having confirmed the Watement of his Hon. olkague on this p o i n t, asked whether he pre sented one of the petitions in his L an d as t h e pet i t i on o f Guilford. C Mr. PALLMER replied in the affirmative. Nr. DENISON denied that it was so. It I3ad been got up by the neighbouring gentry, and had the signatures of only two hundred inhabitants of Guilford, of whit' two hundred, half wete DiSsenters; while the popubtdon of Guilford amounted.to 5,000 souls. Sir E. KNATCHBULL was not going to allude petitions, but lie rose to ask the Bight Hon. Giza opposite whether it was his intention to postpone' or di , fer the progress of his Bill, on the subject of the Ron ' 1 Catholics? Mr. Secretary PEEL had fixed this day for the fire reading of the Bill, as this was to be done pra fi,rmrl, and the next proceeding was settled for Monday next. Mbe could not bring in the Bill until to-morrow (Tuesday), he would defer the second reading to that day (Tuesday) week' I_ The petitions presented by the Hon.
