THE P.ONIAN C'AT:iOI.IC QUESTION. Ors est celare arlem. MR. EDITuR-Fhe Petition of the British Ro- Enan Catholics to the KING, which appeared in this Paper, would be wholly admitted, were an assertion or two tberern to be wholly obliterated, not merely as erroneous, but as designedly artful, and covertly deceitful. It is not true that any penal laws are in force against them, prejudicial to the welfare of the State; but it is truer hat they owe a spiritual alle giance to a fortign Potentate, whom they hold to tir .u4prente head of their Church ; and yet they pray as subjects to be admitted into civil and po li power, in common with Protestants, who el.ny such allegiance, and owe it 0 14 to the KING as a KING, and 'lnlet of their religious as well as civil Government. This dictinction, which no - art can conceal, exposes to broad day-light the contradictory inconsistency of their preten s'ons. They may atknowledge no power in any foreign Prince, helate, State, or Potentate, with in the realm of England, either civil, spiritual, or ec le i stical ; but they do religiously, where s.ever Popery prevails, as SnprrlDC Rnier of their Church, in direct opposition, if not derision, to the national religion of their contury. In this they exclude themselves, and not in the penal hws of England ; yet good citizens and subjects as they undoobt‘dly are, as Papists they are wisely and justly excluded front coil and political po%er by the ~ pmt if the Britis).

THE SUN. SOLEM (els nicEttZ FALsUSI AUDEAT ? LONDON, MONDAY, JUNE 12, 1820. We received yesterday and this morning the Paris Papers of Thursday and Friday l ast , On %Vednesday the attention of the Chamber of De pot les was again called to the subject of the dis turbances in Paris by M. CONSTANT, and more particularly by M. LAFITTE, one of the Representatives of the capital, who complained in the strongest terms of respectable citizens of Pails baying been exposed to the sabres of the regular troops, whilst the National Guards, whose appear ance would have ensured confidence, did not ap pear. He called upon the Ministers to state, how it happened that every day peaceable citizens were sabred in the tot eets. This expression excited much murmuring on the, Cote Droll. Several other Members made statements of outrages alleged to have been committed by the troops, and of charges made by the cavalry upon peaceable citi zens, and a cry was sent foul, from the Cole Gauche, that it was in fact a massacre of the cis izens. Several Members also on that aide asserted that agents of Police were amongst the mob who shouted " Vive l'Empereur," and were spared, whilst citizens who called out " Vive la Charte," were sabred. M. CASIMIR PERRIER asserted, that on Saturday, in the Roe de Rivoli, several citizens who bad their wives and children with them,were insulted and treated by dragoons, who were in a state of inebriety. The Keeper of the Seals asserted, that the Members who had de- tailed the above and other statements, had seen the facts they alleged through the medium of their opinions. 'to these details of particular circum stances, he said he should persist in giving a gene• ra l answer, that there had been tumultuous as semblages from day to day, always eon- isting of he same individuals, and that it was absolutely neces satylo disperse 'web mobs b}' force. Be again as setted that an attempt had been made to enlist the population of the Faubourg Saint Antoine stn the side of the malcontents, but that it had tirely failed, and that the loyal population of that district had seized the- agitatnts, and delivered them into the bands of the authorities. He called upon the Chamber to support the Go vernment against sedition, or otherwise the Re volution, with all its crimes, might be re-pro• duced ; and as a means of restoring the public tranquillity, he urged the bringing to a close the discussion on the Election Projet, which had already lasted twenty-five days. M. CONSTANT ascended the Tribune amitkt shouts for closing the discussion, and the greatest confusion en sued. The President at length put an end to the altercation, by declaring that the proses verbal was agreed to, which left no question before the Chamber. The discussion of the Election projet was then for a short thue resumed, and satin ad journed till Thursday. On the latter day the Sit ting was Confined to the discussion of the Eke tion projet, but no progress was made in getting through it, and after several speeches, the dis csission was further adjourned t ill Friday —Laurel was executed on Wednesday evening in the Place de Greve, in the presence of an immense crowd, who, however, dispersed quietly.—A new Ordon- IlltiCe of Police is published l'a'Thursday's Moni teur, threatening pains and penalties, as for re hellion, against rioters who do not disperse on the summons of the constituted avithoritiel, or who make resistance. The following are Extracts : " Pac,is, JUNE 9 —Yestarday the Marquess de Santa Ctuz, the new Spanish Ambassador, pre. sented to the King, at a public audience, his creden tials, and also the Secretary and Gentlemen of the Embassy. The King afterwards transacted busi ness with the Minister for Foreign Aritirs, the Keeper of the Seals, and the D,,ke de Richelieu. " Wednesday night, at halt•past eight o'clock, • tumultuous assemblage was fotmed on the Bon lever& making a great elitnour, and terrifying the peaceable citizens. Many shops were in conse quence shut. The mob became very numerous •t the Porte Saint Martin, some workmen, a number of persons our of curiosity, and even children of 10 or 12 years of age having joined them. For the third time they went to the Fat:. being Saint Antoine, but thanks to the good dis position of the artisans and pecpie of that Fau bourg this attempt was as fruitless as the pre- ceding ones.

(Front Me National Intelligencer of Me 1 2th illy.) The subject of the reduction of the Army, and particularly the reduction of the Staff of the Army, yesterday occupied the attention of the House of Representatives ; it is postponed till the next Sessions, and a call has been made on the Secre tary of War for a plan for the ,reduction of the Army to six thousand men, should it then be deemed expedient to reduce it ; the motives for the latter proceeding, as avowed, were not hostile to the Army. With regard to the Navy, the proposition for reduction, speaking from no hostility to it, was entirely confined to inquiry, and was consequent on the proposed in quiry respecting the reduction of the Army. [Morning Post.] There is no foundation for the rumour noticed in a Moining Paper of Saturday, of au intention on the part of Mr. Cunning to absent himself from the Cabinets during the discussions respect ing the Queen. Such a rumour could only nave oliginaten in au entire misconstruction of hi. )etch ot ‘Vedntstlay evening, and is contradicted by the tact of his having attended every meeting ot the Cabinet since that day.

WASHINGTON, NAY 1 1.—After the Message front the President of the United States to Con gress, on the subject of our relations with Spain, there was but little doubt but that that matter will be suffered by Congress to rest where it now does, in the expectation that the .fortes will do what h just in relation to us, by causing the Treaty to he ratified, and the faith 'at the Spa uish NatiQll be redeemed from the reproach which b.s been east upon it, by tic terusal U Its Sc";" reign to ratify the Treaty. A Cabinet Council was held this Morning. i t is reported on 'Change, that this Council is not called specially respecting the C2t3gEs's hat to take into consideration the intelligenc e received to.day from Prance. Private letters have arrived, which give a very unfavourable account of the state of that Capital. It is sail that there is a very strong party inimical to the present order of things, which is augrutmting daily.--The change is 25. 45. at one month. THE FUNDS.—Consuls opened this morning at 70U, and continued at that price until one o'clock, with scarcely any botsiness doing. But at that hour the contents of the private letters fr-til France became known, and a considerable d" pressifm took place ; large sellers appeared in . the Market, and Consols fell to 698 70-0 111 " niutu at par. We have copied from the _Willing Papers of (his day a -communication, which appeared in a • Sunday Journal of yesterday, purporting to be a note front the Earl of Lrvcaront, to her MA- . JEsTY, and her MAJESTY'S answer. We perceive that the accuracy of these notes is generally dis trusted in the Morning Papers, though the sub.. stance seems to be admitted as correct. Ii rt if the substance is correct, we see no reason for doubting that the language is eyee'y so, for as it is evident that her MAJRSTY loes not appear to rely wholly on her legal :led more prudent friends, the sante indiscretion advised her to return to this Country, and which gave the letter of Lord Hurcniesoe to the rube tic, may have done so respecting the report:el cotnmunications in question.' One instance Of treachery and folly may enaturally be expected to lead to others of the same description. For our own parr, we should be inclined to list trust, the existence of airy such commu nications, if we could suppose it possible that a respectable Sunday Paper would forfeit its reputation by a forgery. —lndeed it has been surmised, that the Sendey Piper alluded to has become hostile to Governmeot, in co=st' (pence of a sulpicion that Goverument itself lied instituted a rival publi.cation ; but it is so common for Newspapers to boast of the importance, of their origin, or the confi,tence which th= y etijeye that ouch pretences are now too stale and hae knied to have any effect upon the Pubiic. tors, relying, no doubt, on the rictitude Of their measures, have not followed the practice whielt prevailed in the time of Mr. Peer , who well knew the iiuporieeee of t h e PoWia Prete, and suffered commenicetions to be made 10 it which were highly intetestiug to the People, and which served to detect and expose the artifices ead falsehoods of Faction ; wimess this Pe per, which was instituted under the iminedt diate patronage of dist glee( Man himself, a wl The Anti-Jacobin Examiner, which was printed and published at our Office, which was supported by the literary and political eff,rts of sonic or the most distinguished characters in the country, and conducted by a Gentleman well known and tad' mi.ed for learning, talents, political actoneo• and sound loyaby. Ti.e real friends of vb e present Ministcts, however, have long cant' plidtled of their iudifference to the Public Tres!' , and therefore little reliance is to be placed ou those. Jeurnal , which pretend to be peceli r favoured with their confidence and support.-' To return to the subject of her MaJESTY. It ' s our misfortune, or, perbaps,want of policy, to tape a view of this subject wholly difitteat from a ll the other Public Journals. They seem generally to he anxious that some negociation and ee' coruniodation may take place, so as to obviate' the necessity of submitting matters even to th e examination of Parliamentary Committees, 9 114 consequently to prevent them from being know n to the public at large. For our part we are wb° ll / of a different opinion, and conceive that such is smuggling suppression must he discreditable to al l Parties, but particularly to the Qo vata. W et would be thonght of a Person in humble life, who, being loaded with heavy charges, should be contented, for any petsonal considerati on, to waive' an inquiry into those charges, 9na he indifferent to the vindication of character should be observed that the last authentic overture . came from tier r.:l rESTY. She might be induc ed to make it by the indiscreet Person in whom 5 " is supposed to have placed too muds confiden ce ?, but it it; agrees with that " high huffing strain' to use the langnage of the Poet, which 1 ! 31 characterised all her other communica&ns rile and appears to have been animated • b y laudable arrogance of indigr.arit virtue.
