After which ChiefJukcice MANSFIELD delivered the ophrion of the Bench upon the law of the case; which Was in favour of the Decree Ina& by the Irish Court of Cliran cery • This was agreed to, and confirmed by the House ; the consideration of the amount of costs was postponed till to-morrow. CATHOLIC QUESTION. i 1 The Marquis WELLEsLEY rose to give notice of his intention to submit, in the course of a very few days, a proposition to the House on the sub ject\ Their Lordships would recollect that, at the commencement of the Session a proposition had been made for taking into their immediate Consideration the state of Ireland. The question was brought forward with various attendant con siderations, which, in his opinion, as well as in that of their Lordships, were not proper for cussion then. Subsequently a motion was made for taking into consideration the state of the laws affecting his Majesty's CatholicsubjeCts of Ire land: This_ motion had not the good fortune to meet their Lordships concurrence. Upon that occasion, he had stated his opinions in favour of the motion, and also the grounds upon which he rested them. He was of. opinion that Parliament should proceed to an early consideration of these laws, with a view to a final and conciliatory ad justment' of the claims of his Majesty's Catholic subjects. He had even - proceeded farther than that ; for when his Royal Highness the Prince Regent had honoured him by asking his advice respecting the principles upon which an Admini stration should be founded, he'humbly submitted, that the principle should be formed so as to rest upon the basis. of an early consideration of the state of the laws affecting them,, with a view to aconciliatory adjustment , of their claims. The extremely late perio to - which the present Session had now advanced, afforded no other hope than that of his being able to bringunder the con sideration of their Lordships a resolution, to which if they agreed, they would communicate to the United Kingdom, and particularly to that de eription of his Majesty's subjects, a determination at the pearliest period of the next Session of Par liament to enter into a consideration of those laws, with a view, as he had . stated, .to effect a final conciliatory adjustment, such as should place the claims of his Maje'sy's Catholic subjects, up:- on an adequate provision for the security of the Protestant Establishments and the general con currence of all classes of his Majesty's subjects. This proposition he should he anxious to bring before their Lordships ; but he thought that in a matter of such importance, involving such a vari ety of considerations, sonic short interval would be advisable ; he would therefore propose to morrbw se'nnight, as the day on which be should take the liberty come forward with the Resolu tion Earl GREY took - the opportimity to observe that the principle upon which he had acted with re spect to that important question, were too well known to admit of doubt. That principle was, that it was both . just and expedient to extend to the CatholieS as well as to all other dissenters in the kingdom every relief that may be consistent with the security of the Constitution. s He should therefore give the proposition of his Noble Friend the most sincere and cordial support ; and he could .not help congratulating the House and the country at the renewal of this most important question, as well as the more happy auspices un der which it was to be brought forward. He could not forget it was now five years since this .t'arlia ment viz. on the .22d of June, 1807, when it was assembled for the first time ; and it was equally sure he could not forget, that just before an Ad ministration had been dismissed, for attempting to do a little something hi favour of the Catholics in the ikfutiny Here the Earl of 'BUCKINGHAMSHIRE rose to order • observing that on a mere notice given by a Noble Lord, the introduction of such matter was perfectly irregular. - The LORD CHANCELLOR expressed himself of the same opinion. The Earl of ROSSLYN observed, that, on a question for summoning the Lords, which would .necessarily attend such a notice, every word that had fallen from his Noble Friend would be per fectly in 'order. Thzt conversation on this subject continued, and the _LORD CHANCELtOR, the Noble Earl%, am‘ the Marquis WELLESLEY, repeatedly ex plained. At length the question being put, on a motion fol summoning the. Lords for Wednesday— Earl GIIY resumed his observations, and re , peated,- it was now Ave years since the present Parliament first assembled, and recently before that. an Administration was dismissed, for pro posing soinething . in faVour of the Catholics. The ads that were practised, and the clamour that was raised against those Ministers could not be forgotten; against men 'who had ventured to propose that most inadequate measure ; Made quate., 'because his opinion then went to the ex of affording a full relief to that description of theit'fellow-subjects. Now, at the expiration of five years, was propoied, and by one of the "very persons who succeeded the Administration thiu dismissed, the resautions so decidedly and generally in favour - of the Cathotics, arid carried by such a majority in the Commons, as they, had seen by the votes of the other House of Parlia ment. This he mentioned as a subject of con gratulation, as affording the most encouraging hopes. With respect to what his Noble Friend Friend hid said of the'prospeet of his being able to carry no more than a resolution this Session (perhaps he referred to the unavoidable necessity Of the case), he. (Earl O.) trusted, however, that when the question came before their Lordships, they would address theinselves to it with a true, and conciliating spirit, in order to put an end to All doubts and nniirehensions on the: subject_ and io effect Hie the great ivork by fully idopting those measures which true trisdori) and policy iiiceai ed. He sincerely regretted that the general questiOn should not, be pressed to- its final ac compliShnient even thiS Session- of Parliament,.and that the final steps should not be taken to remove WI dis Abilities under which so. large a:portion of his Majesty's subjects stil laboured. No greater friend of the Protestant Establishment than him self could exist, but he, (lid riot consider- him practically a true friend to the establishment who would clog this question, with what was falsely thought securities. The rear and - test security would be found in the rentoval of the causes of all complaint and grievance ; which . ,went , more . than any thing else to diniinish the safety and se curity of those establishments they were desirous of maintaining. Earl STANHOPE rose to give notice upon a sub ject connected with that of the very question be- . fore the House---that he. would within these two days appoint a day for the second reading of time Bill for affording relief to the DiSscnters; and ; Which day should be shortly after the discussion Of the question Of which the Noble Marquis had given notice. The Earl of DARNLEY shortly adverted to a point which, especially under the present circum stances of the country, ht! conceived to be of considerable importance, naniely, the fixing of the hour at Which the pui)lic busineti was to com mence in the evenings in that House. The LORE. CHANCELLOR observed, in reference to the Noble Earl (as we could collect) that five o'clock was considered as the regular hour, when the House was almost always ready to enter ' upon it. Earl GROSVENOR adverted to the notice he had. some time since thrown out, of his intention to move for a Committee on the State of the Nation ; and observed, that as his Majesty's Govlrnment seemed to have conceded those great points to which such a discussion should principally have referred, he did not feel the necessity for troubling their Lordships as he had intended.. The Duke of NORFOLK expressed his' regret that the important subject- respecting which the Noble Marquis had given notice, could not be brought under full consideration this Session. lie was happy, however, it had fallen into hands so well qualified to do justice to its merits. It wzs proper that the fullest assurance should ,be held out of the speediest practicable consideration •of the Catholic Claims ; and adverted to the pro priety of introducing into the oaths of allegiance some further expressions tending to the security of the Protestant Establishments. i'he question was then put, and their Lordships were ordered to• be. summoned for to-morrow se'nnight. CURATES BILL. On this interesting measure a discussion of con siderable length fook place. Their Lordships, pursuant to the Order of the Day, resolved into a Committee of the Bill, Lord WALSINGHAM in the Chair. Lord GROSVENOR strongly objected to their Lordships proceeding with a measure embracing such a variety of iniportaut details at such a late period of the Session, and subsequently moved that the Chairman should leave the chair.- The Bishop of EXEtER urged the propriety of postponing the measure until the next Session. The Duke of NORFOLK concurred in this opi nion, and adverted to some difficulties which pre vailed on the subject. The Archbishop of CAYTERBURY explained with respect to some points adverted to by the Noble Duke. , The Archbishop of YORK qualified his assent to the principle of the Bill, with some considerations ; he was in favour of the postponement to another Session. A di3cussion, chie i fly on points of detail, ensued, in which Lord Redesdale, the Bishops of Londor,, and Meath, and Earl Darnley participated. • 'The Earl of HARROWBY, with great eloquence and ability, defended the principle of the Bill; and contended for the necessity of adopting some mea sure of the kind. The LORD CHANCELLOR was of opinion the Bill should be proceeded with in the Commm►itee, and the Noble Earl's amendments considered. With respect to some of the details, he entertained con siderable doubts. After a few words from the Bishop of ,Kildare and Earl Grosvenor, their Lordships divided on the motion of the latter. For the Chairman leaving the Chair Against it lB • Majority ' --10 A variety of Amendments was chiefly proposed •by the Earl of HARaowsv, -and after much dis cussion agreed to•by the Committee. It was afterwards agreed by their Lordships, that the Bill should be recommitted on Timrs 'day.- • ti . The House then resumed,. and after a few Bills were forwarded, an adjournment till to-morrow ,took place. HOUSE OF COMMONS, TLTVD.AY. New Writs were ordered for Bristol, in the room of the Right Honourable B. BATHURST, who had accepted the office of Chancellor of the Duchy of Lancaster ; and for. Colchester, in the room of R. H. DAVIES, Esq. who had accepted title office of Steward of the Hundred of East Hendred. - Mr. W.

These Bills were severally read a first time; and or dered to be read a second time to-morrow. The Irish Bakers' Bill went through a Com inittee, the Report of which was received, and the Bill ordelbed to be printed. • In a Cornm;tr.... +bas rbviblirt Uorhritt, Am. A Resolution for changing the existing duties on tonnage was - proposed by Mr. %V Pole, and a:ter a .few observations from General Tailto.), General Gaseoigne, and Sir James Graham, agreel .Phe Report was ordered to be received to morrow. On the motion of Mr. -PALMER, the Committee Palmer'soil per centage was postponed till Friday. Mr. W. BOOTLE presented a Petition from Mr. Higgins,-the Jailor of Lancaster Castle, rebutting the accusations preferred against himin a petition, recently presented to the House, from a prisoner, confined for debt in the said Castle. . . Mr. BROUGHAM, otter having it aired veryex tensively i n to the subject, h&c - testimony to the hi h .eharactei; which Mr. Higgins enjoyed, for humanity,._ and expressed his wish that all the other Jailors•• would follow Mr. Higgins's . ex ample.. • .On the motion that the Petition do lie on the talk, Sir F. BURDETT, gave notice, that on Friday next he would "move to take the several Petitions, on.this Subject into consideration. Mr. WALLIS, 44f:it:IT to the Petition pre sented some time ago by an Hon. and Learre Gentleman . (Mr. Brougham)- from Mr. Prender gast, on - behalf of two Native Bankers, resident in the Province of Oude, of the rrnue of Doss, stated that the subject was under .the conside;•a tion of. the Directors of the East India Company. Baou . alum expressed the satisfactiom which he felt at receiving this information, whi c h, of. course, would induce him to dryp his intended motion ; should the Directors,_ however, not •de, .terthine on affording redress to. the Petitioners, during the approaching recess,' he should be under the 'necessity of bringing- the subject under the consideration of the House early in the ne x t Ses sion' of Parliament. • The Bahama Trade Bill went throtrgit a Com 7 thittet, the Report o .which was ordel'ed to be re ceived to-morrow. The Bermuda Trade 'Bill Was read a third time and passed. Lord BINNING moved the further consideration of the Report of the Mail Coach Toll Exemption Repeal Bill. Mr. BAN,KES moved as an amendment, that the Report be taken into farther consideration on that day three months: • A long discussion ensued, in which Sir C. Burrell, Sir G. Clerk, Mr. 0. Williams, Sir. E. Burdett, Mr. W. Dun.ias, Mr. Rose, Mr. Wrot 7 tesly, Mr. G. Johnston, Lord A. Hamilton, Mr. Whitbread, Mr. D. Giddy, Mr.: W_ Taylor, Mr. Banks, Lord Binning, and Mr. Home Sumner participated ; after which the House divided For the Motion. Against 'it. Majority ORDERS IN COLIN CIL . L _ . , Mr. BROUGRAM said, it was his painful duty, a few nights ago, to call the attention of the House to the subject of the Orders in Council, in a man ner which he was happy - to say was no lonuer ne cessary. An order had been issued this day, by his Royal highness in Council, which, in his opinion, and in the opinion of all the friends with .whom he had consulted, was in every way satin- - factory.- He should therefore move, before he, sat down, That the call of the House, which was fixed for Thursday next, should- be discharged: He could not conclude withotit expressing his ap probation of the frank, manly, and proper Con duct adopted by his Majesty's Ministers. To say more would be improper ; as it might be attri buted to a sort of triumph' on his part, which he did.not feel ; but to say less would be unfair. He should repeat once again, that he, as one of the public, thanked them for their frank and manly conduct. It was fit that such an acknowle meat, should proceed 11.0111,0:at side of the House, because the fear of an ill-judged triumph, he was persuaded,Operated often to produce the continu ance of measures which Would otherwise be-aban doned. He trusted, that the revocation of the Orders in Council would produce a proper effect, and - be taken as they were .Meant '.by a Govern , ent which he hoped was naturally friendly to 'us. If, unfortunately, it should happen \ that this was not,the case, he should be the last- man to say that the Government of the country ought not to be supported. He concluded win! nny.jug, - That the Order of:the , Dav for caling over the Blouse on Thursdaytext, should-be discharged.. • • Lord CASTLEREGn expressed his satisfaction that the conduct of . Government appeared so sdtis-, factory to the Honourable and Learned Gentle man. He was all along aware that when the in tentions of his Majesty's Govertnuentwere under- stood, and freed from those misconceptions under which it had labonted; all unfavourante impres sions would be removed. He begged it mightetot be supposed, otter the declaration of the Honour able Gentleman, that Gol'ernment had departed in any measure from- their on intention as declared in that house. The. difference ,between thein was, tint he (Lord Castlereagh) preferred. Suspension to revocation, and the Honourable Gentleman would recollect that suspension was one course which he himself recommended. One of his motives for taking a particular time •v.-as, that he thought it would be more convenient to those who were interested in the trade, to know the precise period Of its duration. With this one exception, the measure was time same as that he intended. Having guarded against any mison ception . on this head, he heted the Hon. Gentle man would-not think that he was the less happy to have received his approbation. Mr. A. 13:knixo made a few observations in' ap probation.of the Conduct of Ministers, and con gratulated the House and the country on the step that - had been adopted. • Sir FRANCIS ThJRDETT approved of the conduct of Ministers, and the ability and candotir with which his Honourable :Friend Oh. Brottghani), had conducted the ,investigation to this happy issue—agreeing, in all that had been said by the Gentlemen who had preceded him—he still beg;eed leave to call the attention of Ministers to the sub ject of the impressment of American seamen--atul suggested the propriety of an inquiry into the case of Williams, - Mr. GOLDBURNE said, that inquiry had been-J made, and that a Right Hon. _Friend of who would soon be in the House, would be able to
