HOUSE OF LORDS.-(LAST NIGHT.) Mr. Williams, the King's Messenger, arrived at the House of Lords at a quarter to Four o'clock, with dis patches from his Majesty to the Lord Chancellor, which he immediately delivered. The Loan CHANCIMLOR took his seat on the Woolsack at ten minutes past Five o'clock. The Archbishop of YORK presented a petition from the Protestants and Clergy of Craven, in the county of York, against Emancipation. Entirely ignorant as he was of the nature of the measures contained in the Bill for the relief of the Catholics, it was impossible for him at this moment to say what line of conduct he should think it right to adopt with respect to that Bill. It would depend very much upon the assurances held out to the country respecting the Protestant institutions what he should do. Whether he should give his assent to it, or as a Protestant Bishop oppose the Bill. Mr. Was. SMITH, and several other Members of the House of Commons, brought up the Skulthorpe Inclosure Lord BEXLEY presented a petition from the Pro testants of St. Anne's, and St. Andrew's, Blackfriars, against further eoncessions, together with another from Ell- ingthorpe, to the same effect. Lord ELDON presented petitions from the Pro• testants of Stanstead, in Essex ; from the Corpora tion of Taylors, in Glasgow ; from the Vicar and Churchwardens of Elsingham ; from the Protestants of Ashby, Nottingham, Ashley, and Wrexham; from the Cor poration of Barbers, Glasgow; from a parish in the West Riding of York; from John Alexander, of the City of Edinburgh ; from the Corporation of Coopers, Glasgow ; from the Minister and Churchwardens of Little Burlow, Somerset ; two other petitions from the same county ; to gether with a great number of petitions from other parts to the amount of upwards of SO, all against the Catholics. The Noble Lord, in presenting a petition from St. Leo nard's, Shoreditch, considered himself bound to say- a few words upon it. It was most numerously signed, the meet ing for having it presented was held in the parish church ; there was no opposition to it, but means were taken to ascertain the sense of the meeting, and there was a very great majority in favour of presenting the petition. There were fifty persons who had signedi ' t, and who were not petitioners ; the mistake arose in this way. At the time the petition was being got up, there was another petition called the e London and Westminster petition, which they intended to have signed. Those who opposed the petition could not complain of this, for the Noble Lord was sure many hundreds had signed the London and Westminster petitiou who were not parishioners of the place from which the petition purported to come. Earl DARNLEY had been informed that a very great number of the signatures to the petition which the Noble and Learned Lord had presented, were those of passengers who had been stopped, and requested to sign it. The petition which the Noble Lord (Darnley) had to present in favour of Emancipation, was from 1167 of the most respectable inhabitants of St. Leonard's, and they had • all stated their respective places of alsode. Though he deprecated discussion on presenting petitions, he begged to be allowed to state his own unchanged opinion on this question. When the Noble Lords stated that the population of the empire was against this measure, they forgot the Ro man Catholics of Ireland, who amounted to seven millions, and the Catholics of England, who amounted to one mil lion, making at least one-third of the population, who were necessarily in favour of theeneasure. If, as the Noble Lords stated, the majority of the Protestants of this part of the kingdom were against concession, as he must admit, yet, if Le were to allow that this majority was in the proportion of three to one, he should grant an ample concession, and then there would be a large portion of the inhabitants of the empire in favour of concession. But in a question of this nature, they must not consider numbers only. - Nothing was more easy than to get up petitions in all the parishes of the country. It was only necessary for the Clergyman to go round, and ask the people to sign a paper, to frighten them with some story of the Pope, or the return of the frightful times of Mary, and he would be sure to get plenty of signa tures. But though the signatures were numerous, the talents were all, he thought, on the other side. Not to refer to the men of learning, talents, and genius, who, in the yenta that had gone by, had constantly supported tire measure of concession—and without meaning any disrespect to any of their Lordships who entertained a different opinion from what he did, he must be allowed to say, that with the ex ception of his Noble and Learned Friend, who was him self a host, there was not one individual in that House eminent for talents and learning who was not convinced that the measure of concession was necessary, expedient, politic, and just, and consistent with Christian charity. By the most enlightened people of England, the concession hail long been required ; by the House of Com.nons, its necessity had been frequently acknowledged ; by the Cor poration of this metropolis its expediency had also now been acknowledged ; and throughout the country there was no body of men of any learning or talents, except the clergy, opposed to concession. Much had been said by some Noble Lords of the violence of the Catholics, but be defied any Noble Lord to find amongst them expressions of 'riolence equal to those which' had been used in the Bruns wick Clubs. 'Their Lordships must have seen their re ! speeches, and he believed they had n ever see n eorted anything equal to the speeches of the Rev. Doctor Robin son, of Armagh, who had openly preached up blood and slaughter, and had openly excited men against each other. It was impossible to suppose that the Members of the Church Establishment should be blind to tire injury they would ultimately do to the Establishment. They were inflicting on it a deep wound, and augmenting that danger which would not be increased, but lessened, by timely, just, and equitable concession. Much of the danger which the Members of that Church now supposed to exist had been caused by the asperity shewn to the Roman Catho lice. The Noble Earl concluded by presenting a petition), praying for tire repeal of all civil disabilities on account of religion, from the inhabitants of Saint Leonard's, Shoreditch. The Earl of ELDON hoped their Lordships were by this time convinced of the propriety of that rule he had laid down fur his own conduct, and which would save their Lordships' tune were seller Noble Lords to act on it —aamely, not to make long speeches, on presenting pe titions on subjects not connected with the petition. A Noble Lord had the other evening talked of ladies signing petitions ; he could only say he had not seen their faces. He wished the Noble Lord would introduce those ladies to Lim.—(A laugh.)—Another Noble Lord had set down all the opponents to this Bill as blockheads. He had, indeed, excepted him (Lord Eldon); but he begged his Noble Friend to remember that he kad laid aside the office which gave him the title of Learned Lord, and he begged that he would in future address him as the Noble Lord. He bad quitted the character of a Learned Lord. If the Noble Lord said the petition he had presented was impro perly signed, he must beg hint to bring from St. Leonard's the gentleman who told Lim so, and he would place him in face of the deputation that had waited on him, and who assured him that the petition was properly signed.— The Noble Lord said be had never entertained any doubt on this important question ; and vet he should he able to show, he thought, from that petition which the Noble Lord said he had composed, that the Noble Lord knew little or nothing of the subject to which the petition re ited; He had had a seat in that or the other House of Parliament for half a century, and had never on any occa sion known the public mind to be so much agitatql as at present. He remembered what had passed when that ce lebrated Bill bad been brouglat in called the India Bill, when petitions were poured in against that Bill from all part's of the kingdom. They were then told by the friends of that Bill, that these petitions did not speak the sense of the people, and were of no importance. When the Par liament was dissolved, and an appeal made to the people, then these persons said the delusion was so great, that it was impossible to recover the people from it, and, there fore, they were compelled to admit that the petitions did speak the sense, though the deluded sense, of the people. fie would only further say, that he would not at that time present any more petitions to their Lordships ; but that he must add now that he ha I presented, of the seventy-five peti tions he had last night stated to have at home, no less than fifty-one, that the remainder had increased so much during the day, that he now had at home rather more than one hundred, which he should present to their Lordshil a on a future day. The Earl of DARNLEY then presented petitions Irons Canterbury, signed by five hundred persons, from the Pro testant Dissenters of Black Friars Chapel, Canterbury ; and from three places in the county of Meath—all praying for the repeal of Civil Disabilities on account of religious opinions. Lord SOMERS, in presenting a petition from Here ford,hire, said that he was convinced that it was impos sible that the two countries could be joined in cordial union, until the disqualifications of the Catholics Were removed. A NOBLE LORD whose name we could not ascertain, presented a petition from the inhabitants of the city of Hereford, praying for emancipation. The Duke of GLOUCESTER presented a petition from die merchants, bankers, traders, and inhabitants of the city of Gloucester, praying for the relief of the Catholics. The petition, the Noble Doke stated, was signed by very respectable persons. Having stated (said the Noble Duke) (luting the last Session of Parliament my opinion upon this subject, I wed not express that I most entirely con cur i❑ the prayer of this petition ; and I may say, more over, I rejoice at the prospect of the emancipation of the Roman Catholics, and lament that it has not been sooner. I trust, however, that the measure to be brought in will be for the removal of all the disabilities under which his Majesty's Roman Catholic subjects labour. Any half measure at this moment would, in my mind, be one of the most dangerous things that could be pro posed. Any thing like a perfect measure, connected with this important subject, will be of the most essential service. Ido not think any thing could be more calculated to promote the prosperity and happiness of this great Empire, than a full and perfect measure on this subject; and I think if one thing more than another can tend to give security to the Protestant Church and his Majesty's Throne it will be such a measure.—(Hear.) I trust it will be found to be the intention of his Majesty's Ministers to propose to your Lordships complete Catholic eman cipation, and by doing that, I repeat, you will be giving the greatest security to the Protestant Church. If the Priests are not paid they must continue to be a burthen on the Catholics, but I think by paying the Roman Catholic Priests, a much better class of people may be induced to take the P.iesthood,— and also by plaeing the Priesthood under the authority of the King, your Lordships will secure to his Majesty some of the beat and most loyal subjects in the empire.—(Hear, hear.) The Earl of WINCHILSEA presented several peti tions (about forty-five) against concession. The petitions were from 'l'owcester, and from various towns and parishes in the counties of Lincoln, Stafford, Sussex, Lancaster, and Caidigan ; from Greenwich, and other parishes and towns in Kent ; from Armagh, Limerick, and from several places in Scotland. The petitions were then brought up. Lord SUFFIELD presented a petition from Macclesfield, Cheshire, in favour of the Catholics. The Noble Lord commenced by deprecating the practice which had been set of holding out the danger of faggots and burning, and nonsense of that kind, for the purpose of inducing people to petition against concession. He was not surprised that ignorant persons, acting from the influence of such repre sentations, should sign petitions against them. As to the circumstance of petitions not coming from persons favour able to the measure, the answer was obvious—namely, that they had a confidence in Ministers from the assurance given by them that the question would be settled to their satisfac faction. As a proof of this, he would mention an instance which came within his own observation---namely, a proposal was made in a society of the friends of civil and religious liberty for presenting a petition in favour of concession to the Catholics. The proposal was overruled, solely on the ground that the question had been taken up by Ministers, and that they had a prospect of the question being finally and satisfactorily adjusted under their guidance and re .commendation.—(Hear, hear, hear.)—At present the House was in ignorance of the nature of the measure in tended to be proposed ; and it was worthy of notice, that these petitions against concession were made against a measure, the description and character of which were not vet disclose:l. The Noble J.ord then intimated to the House that he hail a petition to present from the Unita rians of Macclesfield, who were themselves grateful for the relief which they had received in the repeal of the Test and Corporation Acts, and were anxious to see a similar relief on account of conscience extended to their Roman Catholic fellow-subjects. The Earl of CARLISLE presented a petition from Worksop, in Nottinghamshire, in favour of concession. This petition was signed by the Duke of Portland, and many other persons most respectable for their rank and property. On a former night, a Noble Duke (Newcastle) had presented a petitio❑ from the same town, which he stated to be presented under peculiar• circumstances, and to which there was no difficulty in ehtaining signatures. He was surprises that there should not be and• hesitation on the part of those who signed that adverse petition, cmi sidering that the prayer of it was to consign to exclusion from the privileges of his hereditary rank, a Noble Lord, their neighbour, (we believe the Duke of Norfolk), who did not yield to any Noble Member of the House in his attachment to the Thi one, and to the institutions of his country. The Duke of NEWCASTLE said, that the names sub. scribed to the petition which he pre,cuted on a former night amounted to twelve hundred ; whereas the manes attached to the petition of the Noble Lord did not exceed two hundred. lie contended that the petition presented by him did not contain the names merely as had been in sinuated, of the tag-rag-and-bob-tail of the people; halt was a full and fair representation of the sentiuncri:s of the majority of the people of tlrat district in wealth and pro perty. The Marquis of LANSDOWNE said it had been assumed by the Noble Lords who were pressing the necessity of an appeal to the people through the means of a General Elec tion, that such a course would afford the only satisfactory explanation of their real sentiments upon the subject of concession to the Catholics. Did these Noble Lords veeol:-. le.ct, when they made this assertion, that the people of England had been twice appcalal tn within the last ten years ; and that, 50 fdr from their opinions having under gone any change during that period, their confidence in those who professed principles fill/towable to emancipation had been continued and confirmed, while the number of its advocates increased ? And to the conespondence of sen timent felt by the electors and the elected, was now added a correspondence of sentimelit in the Givertiment. He congratulated their Lordships upon this change in the opi nions of the Government, as one of the most gratifying and satisfactory features of their present condition. With out presuming at the present moment to offer any opinion upon the nature or extent of the measures which the Noble Duke intended to propose, he should content himself by again expressing his pleasure that a plan was about to be proposed by an united Government for the exalted and benefi:!ial purpose of conferring peace, happiness, and se curity upon the inhabitants of the United Kingdom. The NOBLE MARQum; then presented a petition in favour of the Catholics from the inhabitants of Ft mite, signed by several hundred of the most respectable inhabi tants, not one of whom were either labourers or persons in the humbler walks of life. The petition was signed, indeed, by all the "Mini.tters of the Dissenting Congrega tions in that populous town, except the Wesleyans, and by nearly all the respectable inhabitants. He mentioned this, because Frotne had been remarkable for its hostility to con cession ; and because a petitioawith a very different prayer, and signed by a vet y different drscription of persons, had been presented front the same place on a former occasion. This petition being laid on the table, The - NOBLE MARQUIS presented a similar petition from the inhabitants of Bath, who bad taken the precaution to affix their place of r.sideLce to their signatures. This petition was signed by nine Clergymen of the Church of England, by above 200 householders, and by all the Mem bers of the Literary Institution of that city except two, one of whom was absent front illness. The Noble Marquis th?it presented similar petitions from Warminster, in Wilt shire ; from the Unitarian Dissenters of Warrington, in Lancashire ; from Arhroath ; front the Homan Catholics of Tullyrowan, in Kilkenny, against the Sub-letting Act ; from Tullahill, in the Queen's County ; front Ars'ee, in Louth; and from John Lucas, a Coroner, of Cavan, in favour of Emancipation. The NOBLE MARQUIS also presented a petition from the inhabitants of Blackley, near Manchester, in favour of the Catholics ; and front the inhabitants of the city of Glas gow, compl lining of the inadequate accommodation afforded by the Court -house of that city.--The petitions were laid on the table. The Earl of GUILFORD presented a petition, signed by 1,800 of the inhabitants of Southampton, against Catholic Emancipation, and praying a limitation of time Elective Franchise in Leland. The same Noble Earl also presented a petition, with the same prayer, from the in habitants of Fareham. Viscount LoRToN presented petitions against the Catl.inlics, signed by twelve hundred of the inhabitants of Roscommon.; by three thousand five hundred and thirty seven of the Protestants of Sligo ; by a number of the in habitants of Leitrim ; and by 716 of the inhabitants of Boyle. These petitions, the Noble Lord observed, as cribed the evils of Ireland to the prceeedings of the Jesuits and the errors of Popery, an opinion in which he concurred. Earl VERULAM presented petitions against the Catholics from Grinstead, the parish of Penfold, the town of New cal!le-under-Lyne, Tantworth, in Warwickshire, and several parishes in Essex and Hertford. The Earl of SHAFTESBURY presented a petition against the Catholics from the inhabitants of Dorchester, in Dorsetshire, signed at a very numerous meeting ; from the inhabitants of the borough of Renfrew ; and from Cherburg. Their Lordships then adjourned at a Quarter-past Seven, until Thursday morning. AT a PUBLIC MEETING of GEN TLEMEN of this COUNTY, convened by public Advertisement, and held at MAIDSTONE, on MoNnav, the 2d of March, 1829, Hon. J. WINGFIELD STRATFORD, in the Chair, the following Resolut,ons were proposed and unanimously adopted : Resolved—That an avowal having been made in the House of Commons by a Minister cf the Crown, that it is necessary to " break in upon the Protestant settlement of 1 6SS " this Meeting deems it to be highly proper that the inhabitants of the County of Kent should have an oppor tunity of laying at the foist of the Throne their humble, but honest opinions and prayers upon a declaration so vitally threatening their dearest interests. Resolved—That a dutiful Address be presented to his Majesty, proving hint to take the sense of his people by a dissolution of Parliament, before he consents to any mea sure " breaking in upon our happy Pretestant Consti tution." Resolved—That the Earl of Winchelsea and Lord Bex ley he requested to pray an audience of his Majesty, for the 'purpose of presenting this Address.

P. PLUNIPTHE. The following is the Address adopted at the Meeting : TO THE KING'S MOST EXCELLENT MAJESTY. May it please your Majesty, We, the undersigned Protestant Freeholders and other Inhabitants of the County of Kent, approach your Ma jesty with sentiments of faithful attachment and undivided allegiance. We regard your Majesty not only as a Ruler of a mighty Empire, but, under God, Protector of the Pro testant Religion within these realms. And we humbly submit to your Majesty that the firm support of the one is essentially necessary to the greatness and glory of the other. We have learned with the deepest sorrow and alarm, that a Minister of the Crown has avowed in the House of Commons that our glorious Constitution as settled at the revolution of 1685 "is now to he broken i❑ upon." We, therefore, beg leave humbly to state to your Majesty, our conviction that the abandonment of that Settlement will be attended with the utmost danger to the Reformed Faith, and the Civil arid Religious Liberties of your Ma jesty's subjects of Great Britain and Ireland. We are unable to discover in the present state of the ' Romish Church any deviation from those principles and practices which formerly exposed this Kingdom to peril. We see the word of God withheld from the people, arid their consciences subjected to the galling bondage of a Priesthood itself bound by oath to a Foreign Power. We see a spirit of ambition pervading that Church, and Reli gion used as an engine to promote its political aggrandise ment, and we cannot but fear its designs against our dearest rights, as subjects of a free Protestant State, and our best hopes as professors of a pure faith. We confidently rely upon your Majesty's recognition of those principles which vested the Crown of these Realms in that line of Succession of which your Majesty is the august Representative—principles for which the holy sanc tion of your Coronation Oath, and the memory of your be loved and venerated Father must enhance your Majesty's regard ; and in the defence of which we offer your Majesty our willing and best support. If, however, under any persuasion your Majesty can be induced . to entertain a doubt as to the expediency of ad hering to those principles, we earnestly implore your Ma jesty to dissolve your present Parliament, and to afford your faithful subjects an opportunity of expressing their senti ments on so hazardous and vital a change in the British Constitution—a change opposed, we venture to sty, to the interests of true religion, in pro.noting which alone indi viduals and nations can look for the favour and protection of God. We pray that He may bless your Majesty and may direct your Counsels for the welfare of your Kingdom and the glory of His Church. ESTABLISHED MEDICINES.

At Four o'clock there WAS a ballot for au Election Com mittee, to try the merits of a petition complaining of the return of Daniel O'Connell, Esq., as Member of Parlia ment for the county of Clare. Mr. Secretary Pete. took the oaths and his seat for the Borough of Westbury. Mr. TRANT presented a petition from the inhabitants of Dover against any further concessions to the Catholics. Lord NUGENT said, that the petition did not repre sent the feelings of the majority of the inhabitants of Dever. Mr THOMPSON said, that the petition was got up at a private and not at a public meeting. He had himself a petition to present from Dover, which would give a very different view of the feelings of the people of that pLice. Lord NuGENT and Mr. LUNT mutually explained. CLARE ELECTION. The Members who were ballotted for to decide upon the validity of the election for the county of Clare were called to the table to be sworn. The following are the names of the Members of the Committee :—John Easthope, Esq., Sir George Robinson, Bart., It. H. Clive, Esq., James Brougham, Esq., E. B. Clive, Esq., Joins Steward, Esq., Hon. F. Liddell, T. P. Courtenay, Esq., It. C. Carew, Esq., James Lott, Esq., and Lord William Russell. Mr. POWLETT THO3IPSON presented a petition from the port of Devon in favour of Catholic Emancipa tion, and another petition of a similar nature from a con gregation of Protestant Dissenters in the same place. Mr. F. WILSON presented sixteen petitions from places in the county of York against any further concessions to the Roman Cathidics, Sir JOHN NICHOLL presented a petition from ! the Archdeacon and Clergy of Middlesex against Catholic EMancipation, and a si n lilac one from the Archdeacon and Clergy of London. Mr. BROWNLOW—I have, Sir, the honour to pre sent to the House the most extraordinary petition that ever came under its notice, and one to which the peti tioners look forward with much anxiety. It is known, Sir, in Ireland by the name of the " Low Country Petition," and I feel most honoured that it should have been entrusted to my care.—(Hear, hear.)—This most extraordinary petition comes from Ireland, and asks for Emancipation ; I can say it is the almost general prayer—l might say, national prayer of that country, that this measure should be carried.—(Hear, hear.) If the number and respectability of the signatures to a petition entitle it to credit, then I say, without fear of contradic tion, that this is almost without a parallel.—(Hear, hear.) It was agreed to at a great national meeting, it was not a Catholic, nor Brunswick Meeting, it was not called under the influence of any party, but Catholics and Pro testants joined heart and hand, and determined to forget all differences of religious creeds, for the general good.— (Hear, hear.)—l say, Sir, they were determined to forget those little differences which had so long kept them asun der and distracted the country, and to unite in repre senting to this House the real state of that un happy country.—'Hear, hear, hear.).—They have done so, and the petition I now hold sets forth that statement, and that it is the opinion of the petitioners that no rerretiy can be found except in granting emancipation. (Hear.) Who, Sir, can doubt but the present state of the laws are most grievous to the Roman Catholics; they not only degrade that body, but :ire highly injurious to all other classes. It was injustice to call this a Catholic question ; Protestants were deeply interested in it. The Protestants of Ireland were in that state that something. 'oust he done; discord and confusion had got to that height, that unless the Ilonse in terfered ruin was the inevitable consequence. The House would recollect the meeting at which this petition origi nated was held at the Rotondo, in Dublin, convened by public advertisement. At that meeting a declaration of the public opinion it was determined upon should be presented to his Majesty, which had been done, and I am happy the recommendation in his Majesty's Speech afforded good an answer.—(Hear, hear.) lam surprised. ; Sly, to, hear Hon. Members getting up, night aft;;;; night, and stating that the Protestants of Ireland are averse to emancipation ; there are some Oa; ace, no duuht, but the very great majority are deei4r4y in favour of the urea-- sure.—(Hear, !way.) This petition, Sir, contains the de claratie4 of Jreland on that subject, and speaks louder than any thing I can say,—it contains, Sir, the signatures of two Dukes, seven Marquesses, twenty-eight Earls, Viscounts, twenty-three Barons, one Count, twenty two Baronets, thirty-six other Members of -. .'arliatnent, and upwards of two thous:mil Gent men, all possessed o large estates in Ireland... Hi-tear, hear, hear.)—,O,f all the petitions that Were ev4r presente4, this, Sir, fir exceeds them in importance. It, Wc4i signed by persons deeply interested in the welfare of Ireland.—(Hear.)-- To Show, continued the Hon. Gentleman, to what extent party has 4eemi carried in that unhappy' country, I Cell state that at an election during the last Session, the only distinction by which the candidates were sworn ~vin those of Catholic candidate and Protestant caotiilates. Every Member who had listened to the mllm,eet . :l - 1 of a Right Hon. Member at the beginn;nz okhis Session of Parliament must be convinevd o the divided state of that unhappy conrlt-ry. The Hon. Member thou moved that time petition be brought up. Mr. HUSKISSON said, that considering- the rbartlettT of time petition now before the House, and the high rank, great wealth, arid powerful influeoco of those by whom it Was signed, lie thought the Don. Member who presented it Was ca ll e d on t o en t er m ore f u ll y i nto it, su bject than an ordinary petition tvould require ; and to direct to it the par- titular attention of the House, which he had done BO ably, and to which the characters of the individuals and their extensive local knowledge of Irish affairs had the strongest claim. In all respects this petition seemed almost a con trast to the English petitions which night after night poured into that House from all parts of the country, in opposition to the decided opinions of his Majesty's Minis ters. The petition before the House looked at the question as ene purely of a political nature—(hear, hear)—as one essentially Irish, and it was in that sense alone it had been introduced to the notice of the House by the Hon. Mem ber. In the English petitions, as far as he could judge, the feelings of the petitioners arose from an apprehension on the ground of religion, rather than from a fear of polie tical danger. He respected those feelings in the great bully of the people, and he had no doubt that by working on these feelings that such a number of petitions were ob tained, because the people believed that their religion was i nvolved by the proceedings in Parliament. These, he ad mitted, were houest prejudices, and deserved the attention of tha Legislature; and he was not one of those who rlid not think them worthy of the serious attention of Parlia ment. He thought, however, that it was most important that those who were so active in getting up those petitions, should, if possible, be prevailed upon to take a different course from that which they hither iii pursued, and instead of hawking petitions from door to door, and putting them in public places to which large nembeis of the lower orders were in the habit of resorting, to call public meetings.— (Hear, hear.)—There was no part of the country where there could not be found sonic men of education, intelli gence, and sound views on this question, who would, no doubt, attend at such meetings, and be able to allay the fears which were excited, by detailing what was the teal state of the question. If such meetings were held, and he was sorry they were not, men would be found who, instead of proving, or endeavouring to prove, that this was a question - between the Protestant creed and that of the Church of Rome, would show that it was purely one of a political character; or that, if it were a question between the two creeds, the only , way in which that of the Protestant could expect a triumph would be to open a fair field to each, fir in that case the Protestant religion would most certainly be triumphant.—(Hear.)—Such a man might say, that if there were any apprehension of danger from with holding an equal pat ticipation of rights and privileges from all his Majesty's subjects, the only way to remove that danger would be to repeal the laws which created the disabilities ; and that course would undoubtedly be best for the interests of the Church in support of which the intended measures had been graciously Teem mended by his Majesty to the consideration of Parliament. He bad no hesitation in stating emphatically, that the mea sure of concession was inevitable.—(Loud cries of " Hear, hear.")—He did not mean that this necessity was physi cal, but he would say, that there was a great moral neces sity for considering this subject with a view to concession. (Hear, hear.)—He had heard much of what was sod in that House and out, of settling the question, but he bad never heard any which could bringiit to a conclusion, ex cept, indeed, what had been intimated by a gallant officer in his place on a former evening (see speech of General Arcirdall in the Commons' debate of .Monday)—a direct appeal to the sword. —( Hear, hear. )—That Gdlant Officer, speaking of his constituents, said that their an • cestors had once fought the Catholics, and that they them selves were ready to fight them again. With persons so heated, it would not be very :useful to t eason—( Heat, hear)—but in that very state of feeling which showed one party ready to tight with the other, he saw the strongest ground to recommend the absolute necessity of concession. (Hear, hear.)—Another measure, and one in appearance more pacific, was to dissolve the Parliament, and appeal to the people. Dissolve the Pat liameut ! Whv, for tunately fir this country, the Crown could not take such a step without the concurrence of responsible advisers..---(Hear, hear.)—lt would be insanity itself to suppose that the pre sent Ministry could advise such a measure; but if they did not, by whom could such advice be given ? It would be insanity to suppose that as public men they could advise such a course, especially after the honest and manly avowal of a change in their opinions on this subject, which had been made by the Noble Duke at the head of the Govern ment, by the Right Hon. the Secretary of State for the Home Department, the Chancellor of the Exchequer, and other influential Members of hie Majesty's Government. But then, if men of their opinions could not be found to advise such a course, would it not be still moz;insane to suppose that a set of teen could be brought ihto the Cabinet on mixed principles—(Cheers)—with a deter mination to remain neutral ? (Hear, hear.)—That would now he impossible. He had no hesitation in sav ing that the day of neutrality was gone by.—(Hear, hear, hear.)—lt had lasted much too long, and he was glad that the time had at last arrived when the Crown had taken it upon itself to give advice which would put an end to neutrality on this most important question.— (Hear.) —He would say then unequivocally, that an ape peal to the people by a dissolution of Parliament was im possible. But though such a measure was more pacific in name, would it be so in reality? He apprehended that it would be far otherwise. In the present state of excited feeling through the country, from one end to the other,—a feeling which must be still more excited by the stimulants of a general election,—he could not contemplate such a measure without the utmost alarm and dismay. In this view of the question, then he would repeat that the mea sure of concession was inevitable. The people of this country must make op their minds to it, and whatever might be the feelings of sonic on the subject, they should give way to measures by which much danger anti confusion neeald be prevented. He would say that it was the mor a l duty of every man, whether in that House or out a it, to exert himself to correct the mistaken opinions which were spread on this question, arid not let it go uncontradicted, that the intended measures would have an effect injurious to the established religion. It was she duty of every man to show that nothing was intended which could endanger the Protestant establishments in Church and State; but that, on the contrary, the object of the measures was, as no doubt their effect would be, to give great security to all our establishments. By these means the people would be taught to submit with the same loyal confidence in the measures suggested by the wisdom of Government, and sanctioned by the deliberate sense of the Legislature, which had distinguished theirs on all other occasions.— ( Hear, hear.) Mr. BROUGHAM and Mr. 3fooftei. rose at the stone time, and there were some cries for Mr. Moore, but e',, e Speaker named Mr. Brougham, and Mr. Moore gee, wee .. Mr. BROUGHAM rose to express his hearty concur rence in what had fallen from the Right Hon. Member fie- Liverpool, and particularly in the latter part of his address. That attempts were making its different parts of the coml., try to defeat the measure recommended to Parliament be believed, hut they were neither so extensive nor so power ful as the Right Hon, Gentleman seemed to think ; but that attempts were made to delude tire less thinking, the less educattei, and less enlightened portion of the commu nity into the belief that the intended measure was one which would interfere with their religion, no person who 4 all observed what was passing in Parliament or out of it could now entertain any doubt. Ile trusted, however, to the good sense of the people—he trusted to their natz, rally kind feeling—lre trusted even to the little time whiela must elapse before the introduction of the intended mea sure, fur a removal of much of tie prejudice which existed with respect to it. For one, he concurred with the Hight Hon.
