LOYDON JOURNALS. DAILY 2.sehithfiain the Morauig Papers, May 1-1,1825. [MORNING POST.] Atter a discussion of considerable length, hut of small interest, as the subject had been wholly exhausted by previous debates, the third reading •, of the Catholic Relief Bill was carried last nigt►t- in the Commons by a reduced majority of 21,* the numbers being e4B to 227. Although rejection would have been better still, this was Wet.. It shows that the measure was perishing in the hands of its framers, instead of gaining strerigth and credit as it proceeded. It diminishes ;l►e authority with which it will be conveyed to the Upper house, and it will,enable the Lords to iischarge their duty to flit , country and to reject the Bill," without any feeling of regret or apprehension at differing from what cannot now be called the clear and decided sense of the po pular branch of the Leislature. Let them re collect that they now are the last barrier be tween a Protestant Constitution and Popery, and that not, only the hopes, but the confident ex pectations of a great nation repose on their firm ness, their wisdom, and their patriotism. [THE TIMES.] The Catholic Relief Bill was last night read a third time, and passed by a majority of 21; the numbers for the Bill being 248, against it 227., By referring to the division on the second reading, it will be seen that the House was thin ntr last night than on the 21st of April, and that the majority is smaller, it having on that occa sion amounted to 27 ; so that with respect to the whole number of Members present, the Catholic Bill would appear to have lost six friends ; i. e. the difference between 27 and 21. Accident or illness may account for the non-attendance of one or two supporters of the measure—as, for in stance., of Mr. Canning ; and we may gather from preceding debates, that three or four other stanch friends refrained from supporting it by their votes last night, on account of the intended appendage of Mr. Littleton's Bill. We suppose that Mr. Lambton, Mr. M. A. Taylor, and Mr. flume adopted this coarse. Conscious motives are always entitled to respect ; hut, except on the ground of con science, it would be difficult to find any thing to, praise in this desertion of the great cause. We, as we have before explained, dislike Dis franchisement. Bill, not so much because it might, either now or hereafter, be mischievous to Ire land, as because it might form a standing and al most unanswerable precedent against that large and respectable body of Members who may be some day inclined to redeem their repeated pledges of endeavouring to extend the right of suffrage in England. For that Bill, therefor?, those who think as we do should not vote ; but they should not therefore, abstain from support lug another Bill, which they have all their Par liFtmentary lives proclaimed to be one of sovereign virtue. Their refusal to vote leaves the ob noxious Bill just as likely to pass as ever ; while it'endangers the success otthat great measure on which, according to their repeated declarations, depend the peace and happiness of Ireland, and the security of the whole British empire, [MORNING HERALD.] On the presentation of some petitions to the House of Lords against the Roman Catholic Cla,ims, Lord Grosvenor again complained of the manner in which many of these petitions had been got up ; but the Lord Chancellor defended the petitioners, and repeated that he believed the people of this country never to have been more decidedly against the required concession to the Roman C. tholics than they were at. the present moment. In the Commons, the motion for the third reading of the Catholic Relief Bill was pre ceti.e.d by the. presentation of petitions for or against concessions. Mr. Dogherty having present ed (for Mr. Canning-, who was absent on account of continued indisposition) a petition from a parish in Ireland, remarked that an immense number of petitions had been presented from Ire land in favour of the Claims, while there were oily seven or eight petitions against concession. Mt, Butterworth said, that there would hare been more petitions from Protestants against the Claims, had there not been unfair intimidation exercised ; and this statement he made on the authority of letters from Ireland. Several Mem bers having called on the House not to regard the authority of anonymous" letters ; Mr. Butter worth replied that they were not anonymous let ters-; he had many, and they were answers to a ".Circular" w hich he had addressed to indi viduals in different parts of Ireland,. to as certain how the facts were. Then Mr. M. Fitz gerald observed, that whoever chose to " open a shop" to receive the complaints of bigotry, no doubt would have correspondents enough.—Mr. Curwen afterwards, though Sir F. Burdett was •in :the Ilouse, sitting close by Mr. C., moved that the Roman Catholic Relief Bill be read a third time, and spoke in its support. (Mr. Cur wen subsequently paired off with Alderman C. Robt. Inglis opposed the Bill, con tending that the Roman Catholic Religion was unghanged and unchangeable. After" various speakers, Mr. Wetherell opposed the 13111, ridi culed the proposed " securities," because, he saicf, they only deserve to be laughed at, and moved, as an amendment, that the Bill be read a tbfrd -.time this day six months.—Mr. Huskisson fonc s ;wed, maiwaining that the question could not be left in its pre.,ent state; and that in the event uraf4,.if adjustment were deferred, such war letulg i firld us with divided and distracted re sowmat,home. He also urged that with a ma lore,/ sd.the Commons in their favour, and with trttpy4.7l:ds to vote for them, to suppose that the Roman Catholics would abstain from prosecuting their claims now, was almost as visionary as to imagine that they were to be converted to the Protestant faith. After an extended discussion, the third reading was carried by the diminished majority of 21 ;—the numbers were—ayes 248, noes 227. [mottNirra clittoNrlcLE.] The debate on the third reading- of the Ca tholic Relief Bill was preceded by some smart skirmishing, to which an observation of the Hon ourable Member for Dover (Nlr. Butterworth) gave rise, and in which that Honourable Mem _ _ ber rather had the worst of it. The Knight of Kerry could not have selected in the whole com pass of the English language more severe terms than those by which he chose to characterise the conduct of the Honourable Member above alluded to. He spoke of the opening a shop in this country for the reception of bigotry and hypocrisy, and hoped the House would reject those calumnious and malicious reports which ori ginated in the worst feelings,and were circulated for the most despicable purposes. This castigation too was, loudly cheered by the House. Mr. Horace Twiss presented the question last night in a new aspect. The argument by which he supported the claims of the Catholics seemed to us as in. genius as it was novel. The opposing party, he said, regarded the exclusion from Parliament as the strongest in principle for their argument ; so that if the proposition could be made out that even this exclusion from Parliament was not of the essence of the Constitution, it would hardly be pretended that there was any thing essential in any of the minor franchises. Now, Catholics were first excluded from Parliament in the reign of Charles the Second, by the tests which, with some slight modification, are at this day the bar to their admission. The makers of the Statute of Charles set forth that the laws against Popery bad failed of their desired effects from Popish recusants having access to Court, and liberty to sit and vote in Parliament; and for the sake of ensuring the 46 desired effects," they were excluded from Par liament as well as the Court. But the laws against Popery, which the Test Law was intro duced to invigorate, was neither more nor less than the body of repealed pains and pen-Ades, the last remains of which were swept away by the 31st Geo. 111., so that while the original preamble to the restriction keeps its place in the Statute Book, setting forth as its reason this repealed code of laws, the hirth-right of our Catholic fellow-subjects was kept from them now on a false pretence. Such was the reason ing of Mr. H. Twiss, and it was very much and very deservedly complimented by seveal distin guished speakers. [BRITISH PRESS.] I:3y the conditions of the forthcoming Spanish Loan, we understand that the bond-holders will be allowed two years to accept the terms that will be offered to them. If, at the end of that time, they should not all have acceded to these terms, the contractors will pay the composition for the amount outstanding into the Royal Trea sury, and on that payment they will be acquitted of all responsibility on that account. We have already stated that the Loan will be nominally for 24 millions, more than half of which, however, will be absorbed by the Bonds of the Cortes, the repay ment of Guebliard's Loan,and the liquidation of the British and French claims. The amount, therefore, really to be brought into the market, will not he so great as to render the operation very difficult. It will be much facilitated should the bonds be received, as there is good reason to believe they will, at 35, in the subscription to the new Loan. The new Bonds under no circumstances will be taken higher than 32, the price at which they were issued'". We beg to be understood to repeat what we said yesterday with respect to the cor rectness of our information regarding this trans action. None of those who are really aware of what is passing will deny our statements. ft is known to whom we allude ; and we call upon them, if they can, to point out any part of any article we have written on this subject, which is not perfectly accurate in every particular it re-' lates. The Roman Catholic Relief Bill was last night read a third time in the House of Commons, and passed. On the division the numbers were— Ayes, 248; Noes, 2'27. The majority in favour of the third reading was consequently but 21, six less than on the second reading. The princi pal speakers against the Bill last night were, Sir 11. Inglis, the solicitor-General, and Mr. Se cretary Peel ; those in support of it were Mr. Curwen, Mr. C. Grant, Mr. Huskisson, and Mr. Brougham. The arguments on each side were unavoidably such us have been a hundred times repeated. The speeches which pro duced the greatest impression upon the House were those of Mr. C. Grant, Mr. lluskisson, and Mr. Peel. The Right Honourable Secre tary declared that his former objections to the repeal of the disabilities of the Roman Catho lics were strengthened by the measures by which it was accompanied, especially the provison for the Irish priesthood. It remains, however, now for the Upper House of Parliament to determine whether this important Bill skall become part of the law of the land. No question perhaps ever went before the House of Lords under circumstances of such deep and general interest. The public attention was never fixed on the proceedings of that As sembly with more anxiety than it will be during the discussions that will take place on this Bill. (Ibid) [THE PUBLIC LEDGER.] We have received New York Papers to the 17th ult. It was known at Mexico on the 4th of March, that the British Govern ment had recognized the independence of that State ; and it is needless to say, that the intelligence had produced the most lively joy. In their gratitude for this boon, the Mexicans. seem to have forgotten the delay, which, we al ways thought, had been unnecessarily interposed between the agitation and adoption of this mea sure. But ohliviou of slight or wrong is a cha racteristic of - the people every , where ; and, Machiavelian politicians may say what they 4ill , man may be . safely treated with ki n dn es s. he: people are prone enough to forgive in juries, but not to forget benefits ; and when ever they have acted the wild beast, it has been the consequence of excessive goading ; but, a Government, that uses a gentle rein, may lead them as it. pleases. The Mexicans too have not retained a particle of animosity in consequence of their claims to be admitted to the rank of a n independent nat i on h av i ng b een so l o ng postponed ; on the cont r ary, they gave full scope to their satisfaction upon being apprised of the intention of the English Government. Though the benefits of the recognition are clearly of a reciprocal nature, they are so thankful for it that they represent it as a clear gain to themselves, and promise to render themselves worthy of it by sedulously cultivating those arts by which Englishmen have attained the first rank amongst nations. Our love of liberty in particular, they profess to emulate ; and, to make their country the sanctuary of civil and religious liberty, where man may adore God with per fect freedom, without the slightest detriment to his political rights,—is to form, if credit he due to their own assertions, the great end of their future exertions as a nation. Let them only adhere to this resolution, and the end will fully crown their efforts. One province of the union will not be alienated from the rest by means of absurd, irritating, and unjust distinc tions ; and come what may, their union will prove a tower of strength, from which they may scoff at the open or secret designs of their enemies. [NEW TIMES.] The New York Papers, the arrival of which we mentioned yesterday, contain much specula tion on the subject of the South American States, and the various views of the European Powers respecting them. From Colombia there is a a repetition of the report, that the French Go vernment had proposed to Bolivar to assume the Royal dignity, an idea so extravagant that we should have thought it wholly incredible did we not recollect the transactions of June 1819 in Paris. At that time the French Minister for Foreign Af fairs invited to a conference Don J. V. Gomez, the Envoy from Buenos Ayres. He congratulat ed the Envoy on 46 the happy issue of the glori ous enterprise in which the Provinces of the Rio de la Plata had been engaged ;" namely, in as serting their independence, and throwing off the Spanish yoke, and said, the French Government were only prevented by certain embarrass ments from giving the Independents " a deter mined, active, and open protection ;" and he then went on to recommend to them 44 a Constitutional Monarchy," at the head of which he proposed they should place the Duke of Lucca; and he particu larly dwelt on " the liberality of this Prince's ideas, entirely opposed to those which prevail in the mind of his Catholic Majesty !" This scheme was fully developed in a plan by the Baron de Rayneval, who was considered as the most experienced of the French Diplomatists, so that it was not a mere caprice of the Mi nister of the day, but founded on principles which may reasonably be sup - posed still to be kept in view by the French Government. It must be confessed, that there is an essential difference between placing on a Throne a Bourbon Prince, as the Duke of Lucca is, and raising to that dig nity a mere General like Bolivar. The former measure might no doubt, quadrate better with the policy of the French Government than the latter : but, on the other hand, six years have since elapsed—the chance of placing Bourbon , Princes on Transatlantic Thrones has become much slighter, while the desire of seeing Mo narchies rather than Republics erected in that quarter of the world remains as strong, no doubt, as ever. The Colombian Editor speaks confidently of the fact of an overture having been made to Bolivar, but he conceives its object was only to distract and divide the country, in order to bring it ultimately' under subjection to Spain. Our doubt is upon the fact. We doubt whether Bolivar has received any such intima tion from France. If he has, we are inclined to think it must have been serious, a. that of the Baron De Rayneval undoubtedly was for Buenos Ayres. The Camden packet, from Buenos Ayres, has brought ad vices only to the 19th of February ; the Lord Hobart packet, which arrived on Friday last, sailed on the 9th of March, and has come quently made the voyage in 20 days less time.— The Proclamations of OLANETA, which we pub. lished on Monday, are both earlier in date than the convention for an armistice with General SUCRE, inserted on Friday. The Camden has brought the commercial treaty between this country and Buenos Ayres. Mr. NUNEZ, Secre tary to the late President, RIVADAVIA, has ar rived in the Camden, and it is expected, should M. RIVADAVIA be called to preside over the Fe deration of the Provinces of Buenos Ayres (an event which appears to be anticipated), that Mr. NUNEZ will fill the post of Minister to this country. Owing to the increased trade of Brussels, the number of brokers is now 20 instead of 12. The following nominations are talked of in Paris :—The Duke MATITIEtT DE MONTMORENCY, to be Governor to the Duke de BORDEAUX ; the Prince de PoLIG NAC, to replace the Duke de DEuDEAUVILLE, as Minister of the King's Household, a plare he has been long ambitious of; the Bishop FRAYSSINOUS, to be Preceptor to the. Duke de BORDEAUX. Letters from the South of France, dated Di jon, 25th April, say, that the severe frosts had proved highly injurious to the vineyards. In the department of the Gironde, too, the same cause has been very injurious to the vine. In the neighbourhood of B or d eaux , w h en t h e h ea l t hy b u d ga v e pro- . of the finest grape, the severe weather has completely withered the vine-tree. Letters from Stockholm, dated the 20th April, say, that 270 shares have been subscribed for working the coal mines in the province of Scania. Accounts i❑ the Brussels Papers, mention that fires had lately so often broken out in the forests in the Duchy of Luxembourg (occasioning great damage), that it was thought these casualties were not altogether to be ascribed to mere accident. _ _ A\ I V N F U vv r o . partaking ()D, INSTANCE OF SUDDEN DE:AMM .-r.

And in order to avoid the possibility of communication be tween the parties, the purchaser will be directed simply to lodge his money for his promotion to the higher commission, the seller being afterwards selected by the Commander-in-Chief, from the lists registered in his Royal Highness's Office; nor will any other than an unconditional resignation, nor any application which adverts to any expected vacancy, be admitted. The surplus, if any, will, in all cases, be held at the disposal of the Lords Commissioners of his Majesty's Treasury for the public use. The price paid and received shall, in all cases, be that of the Infantry commissions, as in the cases of unattached commis sions which have been hitherto sold, whether the individual selling shall be on the half-pay of cavalry or infantry, and the purchaser shall, in all cases, be placed on the half-pay of in fantry. The individuals disposed to avail themselves of this arrange ment upon the terms specified shall make application to the Commander-in-Chief, through the Military Secretary, when their claims will be investigated and determined upon, and their names will be registered accordingly. The purchasers will be recommended to his Majesty by the Commander-in-Chief, from the lists kept in his office. The sales to take place under the following restrictions : No person to be allowed to sell at either rate who has passed the age of 60 years, or who cannot produce the certificate of the Army Medical Board; if in a foreign colony, the certificate of a Medical Board; or, if no Board can be assembled, of the Senior Medical Officer, shewing that his retirement does not result from impaired constitution, threatening earlier dis solution than a person of his age may expect in the common course of nature. No Officer to be allowed to sell, unless he shall have pur chased his commission, or unless lie shall have served 20 years in the whole, if a Lieut.-Colonel, Major, or Captain. Fifteen years if a Lieutenant. Twelve years if an Ensign, of which, at least, one-half on full pay, or in the discharge of active professional duties, ex cept he should have been placed on half-pay in consequence of incapacity, from wounds or infirmity, not now affecting his general health and constitution. Those having purchased whose services do not amount to the above periods, or who have not been placed upon half-pay on account of incapacity, produced as above stated, to receive the value only of the commissions they may have purchased at either rate, according as they have been reduced, or have retired at their own request. Those who have taken the difference, and who may be other wise circumstanced as above stated, to receive the value of their Commissions at the old rate, minus the amount of the difference previously received by them. Those who have been placed on half-pay in consequence of the sentence of Courts Al artial, or of circumstances prejudicial to their character, to be excluded from the benefit of this ar rangement ; or, if it be thought fit to relieve the H a lf-p a y Li s t from them (as they cannot be called into service) to receive a sum not exceeding the value of their annuity. It is to be understood that no Officer on the Retired or Half. pay List, who may hold a garrison situation, will be permitted to retain it, if he should sell under this errangement. Further, that the general arrangement shall he limited to those actually on the Half-pay or !retired List; and the time allowed for its operation shsll be limited to one year for officers at home, and to one year and a half for officers residing in dis tant colonies or countries. Those Officers who have purchased Half.pay Commissions, as unattached Commissions, would, after serving on Full-pay in the rank so purchased, be as admissible to the permission to sell what they may have purchased as any other Officers on Full-pay, under his Majesty's Regulations. The purchasers of the Half-pay Commissions, above the rank of Ensign, shall be invariably Officers on full-pay. No Officer shall be allowed to purchase two steps on half. pay, without having ser.,-ed in the intermediate time two years on full-pay, it being of course understood that his general pe riod.of service would otherwise entitle him to the promotion.
