The Earl of Dos.oucomoite said, he rose to present the petitions of'his Itotnau Catholic fel lo's...stibjects in . Irellnd, who approaciattd that Howe as they had done on fottner occasions, praying to be relieved from those disabili lei. which continued to press so heavily nnon them—ftom those degradmg distinctions which still operated so materially against them. lie dui not mean to R , VieTile the discussion which was so slimily to corny on, nor could I,e stay any thing that would 100 be a repetition of what lie had before urged to their Lordships. when advocating / the cause of his Catholic fellow-count; yttoen, But he was happy to say, that npon the present occasion the (tpposition to the Claims of the Roman Catholic's lad been weaker than at any former pecio(l,3lid this, too, notwithstanding the most suspicions and im proper practises had been res , .rted to, in order to obtain signatures to Anti-Catholic petitions, as appeared by an order issued by the Cpuittiandiog Officer of a depot at Dublin, \ prohibiting the sol diers Intl!) interfering in anv political tiisciission, rte sighing any petition. Yet not withstanding all the onancEuvring that had been had recourse to, he was happy to say, that the opposition to the Catholics was much weaker than on any for tiler occasion. The petitions lie had to present to their Lordships were most numerously and re spectably signed, including the Premier Catholic Peer of Ireland, Lord Fingal, the Premier Catho lic Baronet, Sir 'I booms EsmonA, a roost respect nble Gentleman also, Owen O'Connor, and a num ber of others of. high respectability. Ills Lord ship concluded by presenting the following pe titions Vrorit the Boman Catholics of the Parishes a St. Mary's, St..lllolnaS'S, and St. George's,, Dublist—cif the County of Roscommon—of the Cohnty and City of Cork—at - the Parish of St. Catherine's, in the City of Dohlin—of the Parish of St. Paul's, in the City of Dublin—of the Parishes of St. Andrew's, NI.

His Lordship remarked particularly on the ac cession to the cause of the . C4l hol ic Claims of the Protestants of Dublin, emphatically called the Protestant City of Dublin and of Cork, which mie,ht he considered the Southern metropolis of Ireland. The' Eoglish petitions above-mentioned were ptesented by his Lordship at a subsequent period sit the sittio. The Earl GREY said, he rose to present the petition of the Roman Catholics of England,, praying to be relieved from those degrading dis abilities to- which they were still subject, and from which, as good subjects and 'citizens, as men estimable and exemplary in all the relations of s ociety, they ought, in his opinion, to he relieved. He did not wish to repeat (tor be could only te peat) what he had said on former occasions on the, discussithi of this important question, bat be must again, wheo the period of discussion came, conjure their Lordships to grant to the petition et's the privileges which they. claimed, and to which their exemplary conduct fully entitled them. lie had, on former occasions, unsuccessfully urged the Claims of the Roman Catholics of England, but the opinions he had on those occasions advo cated, bad only become more firmly rooted in his mind, and he was more and more convinced, that the only true policy which the Legislature ought to adopt; was to concede the claims which were thus respectfully urged by the petitioners. A pe riod of peace was the Netter calculated to adjust a question of this importance, because it was a season fitted for calm discussion.; and though it was the hope of every one that the peace would be of long duration, still it was impossible to foresee what events might cause an abrupt termi nation of that state of tranquillity. What (ben would be the situation of the esnitry, it com pelled to enter into a new war, with a divided population, with a distrust of so important a por tion of it as was constituted by the Roman Ca tholics Was it not of the utmost tnomelit, that the unaninimity in rights and interests of the whole population of the empire should be secured • with, as little delay as possible, in order that the country, if forced to. enter upon a new war, might commence it with all that energy which alone could be communicated by an united people ? That any danger could arise from conceding the Claims of the Catholics was now a chimera, the otanoxi- Ous tenets vvhic . it was allewd tLc 11121,1 uellir so entirely disavowed by the Catholic I.s,6yyrsi ties, by all persons who were entitled to any au thority -amoopt them, that, indeed, it had ceased to be used as an argument by the opponents of those claims, that any possible danger could now arise froth grautink them. To slim also the na ture of the oiadosition that had at a former period been made to those Claims, and the grown!. iessness ot its ,pbject, it was only necessary tnr him to advert to one fact. Ab►+ut tvvo years since, a naval officer of the name of Wright, who had not only distinguished himself in that service in which he was employed, but had Inst six . brothers whilst figliting the battles of their co►►n try, applied to the Admiralty for promotion, and was at length appointed a Master and Cow. wander ; but he then found, that be f ore receiv ing his coo► u ti•siori, he Must tkike the oath of supremacy, &07. and that titres, being a Romai) Ca thoiic, he mosf • io order to enjoy the promotion he had so► hardly earned, surrender his religion. Hots case cat hardship attrac►ed the notice or the Government, slinl H Bill %vas in consegti, nce ntroducutt Iwo fitm I.loe, he' believed by he Noble VtNeount ( \leo/WO orposi:e,—i he fflet of which was, !hat oflivers of the army and navy were not called upon to t alie any oaths and that 011ie Roman Catholic officers wire ad mitted withoet 7.eraple into both the army and the navy. tie (Lotd Grey), watched with silent satisfaction the proerese this Bill, which pass ed through both flonses of Pailiament without ()hi!' iOll OVOsition, Now What was this Act, thus passed in 18i6, but the very,same mea sure in effect which he (Lord Grey), wheti in the lioti.e of Commons, btou t ght forward in 1806, but Zvi ich eubjected those who supported it to every species at obloquy and calionny, and which .vas filially the means of bringing in the striation of 1807 % This might serve to spew the nature of that oppo•ition to the Claims of tf.e lLtntaii CaaloliCs, kthiCh was founded merely in prejudice, and which hail no solid et onnds of ith jaation to rest upon. That there existed now any solid ground of objection to the IZ Catholic Claims, lie utterly denied. The Roman Catholics of Eugland,‘vhose Petition lie nuts' pteseetetl, were many of them possessed of large property, wt ieli they bad derived from their atieeszors through a descent of highs antiquity ; some of them were deseetuled from the very founders of our li het ties ; all of them had manifested the most ex emplary conduct both es subjects anti as citizens, and in all the relations of society, they were men of the most devoted loyalty to their Sovereign, and most zealously attached to the Constitution ; men whose love for their country could nest be in any instance impeached ; they only differed from their Pro:cstant tellow-subjects in a dogma of re ; and though he (Lieai Grey), as a sincere Member of the Church of England, Was hound to 'Consider their opinions upon that-point errooe oils, at ill he could not couceive an unfavourable opinion of that religion which taught its fol lowers to be estimable in every relation, as sub jects or as citizens, or as members of society ; !tor could he conceive it possible, that the least dan ger could arise front the admission of such men into the pale of the Constitudoil ; on the contrary, tie considered, that whilst ire was reedy to Cllll - every security that could be necessary for the maintenance of the Protestant Establishment, • the only way of averting all danger was to con cede the Claims of theCathohcs, and dins to pot an end to all . disunion and distrust. Ifis Lord ship concluded by presenting the petitioo of the Roman Catholics of England. The Earl of ',weapon'. said, lie did not rise in ! the slightest degree to object to receiving the pe tition ; but, inconsequeoce of something that had Callen from the Noble Earl, respecting which he (Lord Liverpool) thought it necessary to enter into some explanation. As io the highly respecte able individuals of the Roman Catholic persua sion, whose petition had been presented by the Noble Earl, far be it from bins to say thing in . their 'tlisparegenient ; for some of theta, with whom hi- was in the habits of intimacy; he had: the highest respect . and esteem, and of none of ,them, as individuals, had he the least apprehen— sion ; neither did lie bti.eve that any of the Ro man Catholics -now held those olsuoations doc trines, leading to immorality and in•ecurity, _which had been alluded to. It was not at ail OH this ground that he opposed the admission of Ro man Catholics to the- privileges of the'Constitu don, but altogether on constitutional principles, involving, as he contended, the security of the Protestant Establishment in the State, and with it that of the Protestant Church, with which it -was inseparably connected. .With regard to the Act alluded to by the Noble Earl, passed in - 1816, there was a radical difference between that and the 'Bill introduced by the Noble Earl when in the -House of Commons in 1806. The former arose nut of the circumstances alluded to by the Noble Earl. An inquiry having been, in consequence of that occurrence,' instituted, it Was foutid that it had beets the practice for a great number of years in the army to require no oaths trom Officers pre vious to receiving their commission (they being relieved . from the necessity afterwards by the Act of Indemnity,) whilst in the Navy it had been the, practice to require, the oaths from Officers previous to receiving their commissions. The Law Officers of the Crown were referied -to, and their opinion was, that the practice in the N a vy was wore consonant with law than that of the Army. It was then deemed expedient .to bring in the Act alluded to, which passed - in 1816, but the difference between that and the Bill ot I XO6 was this—the former, whilst it admitted Catholics and Dissenters into the Army, without taking any oaths, left them subject to the Test Laws, Irons the effect of which they were only relieved by an Act ot Indemnity; whilst the object of the Bill of, the Noble Earl in 1806, was to concede to diem as a right she privilege of entet trig the Army Bed Navy, merely taking a shot( oath there pre scribed, and entirely doing away as to them the effect of the Test Laws. • The Earl Getty observed, that the practical ef fect of both measures was the same, to admit Rollsan Catholics and Dissenters, without restriction, into the army and navy, there having been no instance, for at least half a century, of omitting to pass • an Indemnity Act every year The only difference, therefore, was, that the Bill or 6 A:,l that by sniiercicei f Grey) would, in Lis Bill of 1806, have conceded ;Is a tight. And as to the Test and Corporation Acts, he (Lot d Grey) W , 1.1 SO far convinced of the inexpediency of Continuing Acts, the operation of which it watt found necessary every year to sus- per and annul . , and which was indeed regularly dOne 'as a matter of coarse, that be should not be- sitate at office tp move their repeal. The petition was ordered to lie on the table, as were also all the others before-mentioned. 11► e Marquess of LANsnow , :sE presented peti ions in fAvoar of the Roman Catholic Claims, from Kerry and other places ; as did also the Krill of CUARLEMONT, front parishes in the City of Dublht and other quarters, all of which were or dered to lie upon the table. The Duke of Witt.tANoTotsr presented a peti tion from Protestants of the City of Dublin against the Roman Catholic Claims. which his Grace stated to be numerottsly and re , peetably s i gned. With respect to tl►e statrment of a Noble Earl (Donoughtoore), witl► regard 10 SOH citim: soldiers to sign the petition, be k , he Dake of was informed by the party from whom be receiv ed the petition, that in the fitst place, no soldier WdS solicited to Sign the petition, and that in the next Itlarr, uo soldier actually lutd signed The Ead of Dosouctimoaa if the Noble Duke 11.:e rt rd it.oto own, knowledge that there had been no solicitation of soldiers to sigu the petition, be (Lord Donou:4lintore) must of ccitu . se believe it ; bt►t unless the Nobl:• Duke did so, he (Lord Donouglimort.) must continue to believe 'hgt some practice of that kind bad been resorted to. Why eke did the Commander of the tlepM issue the order, which it ►vns known he had, 10 prevent the soldiers under his orders from inter fering in any political discuslion, or ,inning any paper. The Duke of WELLTNGTON observed, that he could of .course say nothing triton the subject front his own hnowledge, not having heed in It e land, neither could he answer for the. motive - of a Commander of a depat in Ireland, for kitting an order. It was possible that time order ;night have been issued in consequence of some trick played by the opposite party, to discredit the pe tition. Milt regard to the fact, he „had the dimity of the whole Committee who had Ole EVa - Ilk+ gement of the petition (which his Grace read) for stating, : that no soldier had by their authority been solicited to sign it, nor could they discover that any soldier actually hatl signed it. With re sp-ct to another statement also that had been made respecting getting charity boys to sign the petition, he had the authority tat the Lord Mayor of Dublin, and the Trustees of the Bine coat School (which his Grace. likewise read) fur staring that it was a false -knd scandalous report. The Eat! of CHARLEMONT. read the , Ordet which had•hecu issued by the Commander of the Dept'i question, which, he observed, thnugh it did not apply in tennis to the Anti-Catholic petition, appeared from the postscript to do so, as it pro ed I he soldiers from attending Prange Lodges. -With regard to the petition itself, he could assore the Noble Doke, tliongh he did not ureAri tO tar peach, the respectability of the Petitioueri, that a number of than' were neither householders nor resident, it, several of the siguatut:cS_lratt been obtained among , t the tenAotv o f a friend of his in the county of Wicklow, who merely signed it. to oblige their landlord. The-Earl of D , q , :otiGliinue stated, with regard to the report about charity boys, that a per,,,tru called Upoll the Editor of a respectable Paper in DUblin, and told him that li;.t had been taken into a public-house and made intoxicated, and that he had been induced to sign the Anti-Catholic Peti tion, and to put also the names of his three sons, who were boys at the charity School. The Earl of ENNISKILLEN, with reference to the t uilititry order ,issued, said it . was issued, not in consequence of any thing that had taken place, but from the apprehension that some attempt of that kind might be made, but, the tact was merely that a gunner had signed the ,petition who had been torsotne time discharged horn the Artllery service, and who therefore had undoubtedly a ight so to sign it. • • The petition was ordered to lie opon the table, as was also one in favour of the Honiara Catholic •Claims.,_presented by .his Royal Highness the Duke of SUSSEX. The :Earl of ENNISKILLEN presented apetition . ag3inst the Roman Caaolic CI o t o the County of Fermanagh, which his Lortishipstated. to be signed by the entire property of the' county, and by a number of the most respectable indivi duals; • These signatures amounted to and' , there would haVe been thousands more, but there was not parchment enough to contain thern,-- , -d Jhepetition was ordered to lie on the table. His Lordship. stated that he had another Petition tir the same effect from the. County of Monaghan, signed by 20,000 persons, but owing to an infor futility, be could not present it. The Duke of LplNsTiiit presented the follow ing Petitions in favour of the Roman Catholic Claims : Front the Protestants of the County of Monaghan —Rnoian Cat holics of the Pai ish of Kildare, County of Kildare—Roman Catholics of tl.e Parish of Rathangan, County of Kildare— Roiria n Catholics of the United Parishes of Cellridge and I Stratfarn,County of Kildare—Roman Catholics of ,the Parish' of Castlederniott.
