But the petitioners who are ;he objeCts of the present Motion, enjoy . • already the same freedom of religions worship, the same free dom in the Propagation of religious opinions, - which- is en- . joyed ky the members of the Establishment themselves. We cannot hare a more convincing proof than in the lectures which are given and ptibliShed by the College of Maynooth.— . It is the removal of Civil Disabilities, it is an extension of Ci vil Power, which is-now in iontemplatiOn, as appears from the general tenor of the petitions which have been laid on your Lordships' table. But if the religion of the petitioners is deemed an obstacle to their-acquisition of this civil power, are they not made to suffer on account of their religion ? And if men are made to suffer merely on account of their religion, is it not an act of intolerance unworthy of the present age ? My Lords, I should be very sorry to plead the cause of into lerance, which I think highly reprehensible, from whatever quarter it proceeds. But there is really no intolerance in opposing-the Claims which are now advanced. It is not merely on account of any difference in abstract opinions be tween the petitioners and ourselves, that we think their reli gion a ground of exclusion ; but because opinions', abstract in, themselves, are coupled with other opinions, which are not so; with opinions which affect men's political conduct. Let it he granted that men may believeln the doctrine of Tran substantiation, and yet bear true allegiance to his Majesty King George, as well as they who reject such doctrine as su perstitious. But, if they, who believe its the doctrine of Transubstantiation, believe' also that a foreign Potentate bath, or ought to have, authority in this realm, then, I say, my Lords, it is impossible rhat such men should bear the same allegiance to his Majesty King George as they whose whole allegiance, whose allegiance, Ecclesiastical as well as Civil, is centered in King. George alone. Now, my Lords, I think no one will deny, that where allegiatic to the Sore , reign of a country is unequal, the qualifications for admission Intim Government of that country must be likewise unequal And if this reasoning be just, it follows, of necessity, that the members of the Church of Rome ought not to be admitted to an equal participation in the Government of this country with, the members of the Established Church. Nor can this con clusion he weakened by the distinction which is made be tween allegiance to the King in things Temporal, 'and alle giance to the Pope in things Spiritual. Be allegiance what it will, if that,allegiance is divided. between the King of the Gauntry and a Foreigner, the King of the Country has nut the share which he ought to have, and which in this countr y he really has from the members of the Establishment.— And-,. after all, the distinction is only in theory; for where - Religion and Politics are so !sledded as in this country, if -is impossible - to preserve the distinction Ili eractice. Having considered the question'in reference to the State, I will now- consider it, with the permission of your Lordships, in reference to the Church. For though the boon %%hide is asked at. present is a grant only of civil power, yet if the acquisition of this power snail lead to consequences injeteious to ithe Established Church, your Lordships wiii surely contemplate those consequences, before you resolve to grant the power whirls is now desired. I ask, then, whet her 'your 'Lordships can be sure, that when the adherents to the Churelt of Rome are placed on a footling of equality with sour Lordships in the civil administration of this country, I ask whether your Lordships cats he sure. that this equality in - power 'will be 'the ultimateim of their desires ? Does not every re,we acquisition become the means of acquiring wore? 'Amid is it consistent with hennas) nature to suppose., that tire desire to obtain should not grow with the ability tn-ob tain ? If the petitioners then succeed in their present attempts, must not the acquisition of civil power at length terminate with an increase of ecclesiastical power ? The Court of Rome is no less anxious to extend its inflornee than it was at any former period. The Order of Uesnits, restored by the present Pope, wins not restored in vain. The extension of Papal Au thority was the original purpose for which this Order was foonnied : and for no other purpose can this Order have been restored. Nor ate the Runtish Cleryy in general deficient in ardour to second the views of then-Sovereign' Pontiff. In deed they are led to do so, not only by inclination, but by the oblitoation of a solemn Oath. By-a Decree of the,Coun cil of Trent, arid a Bull of Pope Pius IV., no Clergyman of that Church can be admitted to a Benefice till he has taken an oath, which contains the following words Sanctum Ca t hulicam. et dpostolicam . Rom anunt Erclesiam, •ancaium Ec elsAiarum matrem et against-a. 'They declare therefore upon Oath, that the Church of Rome is the Mis tress of all Churches, consequently tlk Mistress of the Church of England. With such principles, must they not eirlea- Your to obtain for the Mistress what is now enjoyed'hy the Servant ? And is it wise, mv Lords, on our,parts, to supply them with the means of so doing ? There is indeed one por ti:n of time united . Church, in which the struggle for pre eminence must be of short duration, when the Members of the Church of Rome have once acquired the same political power with the Members ,of the now Established Church- And what security can there be for a Protestant King, with a Papal Establishment ? The constninences of smelt a victory on the part of the 'foolish Church, conseqiicrices which would shake the State itself to its foundation, are, in deed, too painful for description. And I trust, nly Louis, that it is unnecessary to make the attempt, as I am persuaded that your division on this night will entirely prevent the apprehension of them."

He should either propose an Address to the Crown directly, or the appointment of a Committee to investighte the fmf;ject previously. The question would he, how far the Papers be fore the House warranted an Address to the Crown, or whe ther they required the investigation of a Committee. r. Mr. F.

The SPEAKER stated, that when he first tool( the Chair that day, he bad,ealled the attention of the House-to the en - coo - It:Luce (.;- Mr. t nt, who had presented a petition en c l . plainin4 of the Election for Canielford not having :. coil plied with the terms of -this Act respecting; entering into recognizances within a certain tirne, whereby. it became imperative on him to discharge the order. Since that tune he lied received a letter from Mr. Pitt, complain ing of the manner in which C' Thomsdn,.Esq. and John Henry Lee, Esq. appointed to examine his sureties, had discharged their duty. Clad lie received this letter before ;liaising his Report - to the House, it could not have delayed that Report One minute. But he had since inquired into the circumstances of the case, and found that the day appointed for the exatui,:ation of the surepes was muted by Mr. Pitt himself—that when Mr. Pitt called on the Examiners to-day, he was told that he was a day too late; that lie fik'St contested the truth of his having been a day to•> late, earl next. refused to allow thew to enter into anyexionination as to the sureties. BARNSLEY CHURCH. Mr. STUART WORTLEY moved the second reading of the tlatudey Church Bill. Lord MIL CO` opposed the Bill, and moved that it be read a second time this day six months. Mr. S. WORTLEY replied—when the House divided, and the result was— For the second reading Against it 27 Maj,,rity Sir FRAIS';CIS BuitnETT presented a Petition from - Mallison, inventor of a plan for preserving persons from drowning, to which he said he should hereafter call the at tention of the Hone. - The Barnstaple Bribery Bill was read a third time and passed. LONDON CLERGY. Sir J. GRAHAM moved that certain Property Tax Re loins regarding the City should be referrq to the London Clergy Bill Committee. Mr. Alderman WOOD said, it would be a" - most extraordi-• nary proceeding, if acceded to by the House.. The Chan celhir of the Exchequer bad solemnly promised the 1 - louse to destroy all the papers connected with that odious tax. The returns wer=e generally known to be very fallacious; returns made four years o; and he simcerelx hoped that the appli 'catiodwould-be re Fed. Mr: CALVERI ;reed in what had fallen from the Worthy Alderman, and adued. that if the returns then made were so erroneous, of COW'S:, they could hot then lead to any fair or proper conclnsion. Sir J. INV.WPORT did not wish td touch on the propriety of the Clergy obtaining remuneration or ptherwise ; but he could not consent to the production of papers agreed to be destreyed by his Nlajesty's•Ministers. Sir M. W. RIDLEY appealed to the House, whether the pledge of -Government bad not been given that all papers connected with t be Property Tax should be destroyed.—(Hear, hear!)—and he trusted the House would unanimously reject the proposition. He did nut know how the papers,could have frond their way to the Committee, but he should cer-, th i nl y then oppose their production. ft would be a gross breach of faith to have then' laid on the table. Mr. Alderman WAITHMAN said, he never would consent to such a violation of faith as the production of the papers sought for would - warrant. They weie'errooeous documents, andeould notbe safely proceeded on ; property in the City of London had must tuateriallfchanged since the et turns had been made. Sir J. GRAHAM then withdrew his motion. , The Report of the Irish Clerk of the Peace Bill was ordered to be received to-Moreow. MARQUESS OF CAMDEN'S TF,LLERSHIP. The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHI;QUER brought up the Report upon,t he. 11111 to enalhe ins Majesty to apply the extra fees ariSiiiK from the Tel of the Exclu-quer slu r...on:vied by the Manion's of Camden, to the Public Service. The Bill was read a tit st time, and ordered to be read a se cond time 'oil Friday next. Mr. FREEN:IANTLE took the opportunity of expressin4 his respect for the conduct of the Noble Marquess; he could not. but allude to a simi lar act performed hy the late Marquess of Bue4ingliarn ; and it appeared somewhat surprising- that a Bill had nut been considered to be necessary un that hew sion. The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER replied, that that was of 'a- different nature, and did nut rcciaire a Bill to give it effect. Mr. J. P. GitANT moved for Accounts of all Silver and G‘vold imp o orted into Great Britain is the )'ears 1318 an,: 1610 ; STATE OF THE NATION. Mr. I'IEIII4EIY rose, pursuant to his notice, to call the attention of the House to the State of the Nation, and to retitiest a portion of that indul gence. which be had so often eeperieueed e and which, he trusted, would not be now denied. The best return which he could make would be to oc cupy as little of its time es possible. The ques tion which he should peopoie for the adoption of the House would bee. that it resolve itself into a Committee' to consider the State of the Nation. He was aware that if he was eating as a mere party man,, he should abstain from making this He knew that in point of party/ co ‘ osie. derations he waS giving sip some considerable ad eantages. He could hardly conceive that the party to which he and his friends stood opposed, could ever be pieced in, a less enviable situation than it at present occupied. He had never seers a set of men'tnore cubed and kicked about, and bearing all with more patience than the Gentle- . men opposite, with the Noble Lotd at their head. He could not comprehend, if it werehis wish to close the Session by a party triumph ; a more ef fectual mode than leaving things as they stood. For who had ever beheld an Administration more lowered than the present ? • More deaden all just feeling of Government More solely attached to keep itself in office I They had brought ,forward • no public measures whatever, whilst those which the Opposition bad proposed had all been carried in spite of the declenotions of Ministers, who re presented thai the country would he ruined by their adOption.`An,Hon. and Learned Friend of his had introduced the subject of the penal lews: If the motion' be curried, skid the Hon. Gentlemen op posite, the very !emulations of the Legislature are shaken. But the motion was carried, and Mini sters immediately made up their minds to the.. measure. Atainquiry was proposed by another Noble Friend of ids ,into the abuses of Scotch Royal Burghs. if you agree to it said a Right Hon. Gentleman, whoni• he did not now see his place (Mr. Canning), nothi'ess is secure its the empire ; property is not safe, arid the Revolts lion is commeneed. • That measure was also carried, and all remained quiet on side 'of his Majesty's Ministers.
