LORD . The LORD CHANCELLOR presented a petition f rom the inhabitants of Denbigh, hr the Principality of Wales, nume. ronsly signed, who, prayed that their Lordships would grant no further concessions to the Roman Catholics. A FEW ADDITIONAL PLAIN REASONS why the DEMANDS of the PAPISTS should not be CON CEDED. Because, the unhappy situation of freland has resulted from causes which Catholic Etnancipa 'Plie.-Eiul of I.IV E 00014 presented a petition to the same effect - Jim - it the merchants and manufacturers of Glasgow,which was Signed by 13,000 names, • and another from .the Provincial Sy - noil, of Bows. Viacount DUDLEY and WARD -presented a . petition from the jour*trien carpenters of the city of London, in favour of the Etuitable Loan Bill. 1 . ~ The . Bishop of ST. DAVID'S presented a series of peti tions against the Roman Catholic Claims, from the Dissenters of Fishgaard, -in Pembrokeshire; also . from 'two parishes in Cardiganshire and Pembrokeshire, and from Pembroke Docks; also from • Whitchurch,• and.from another parish in Pembroke shire; also from two parishes in Cardiganshire, and from the various denominations in Pembroke.l Lord COLCHESTER presented a petition from the borough, of Colchester, in favour of the. Equitable Loan Company. CONGLETON PETITION. Th? Bishop of CHESTER had to present to their Lordships a petition not unworthy of their notice; it was fiom the in habitants of the town of Congleton, and bad 000 signatures attached to it. It was proper to state that due notice of the presentation of the petition had been given to the inhabitants of that town, in consequence of which a numerous meeting of,the inhabitants took place ; and the petition was signed by nearly all persons of respectability•in it, except the Mayor, who told a gentleman who is in the habit of attending all ,such meetings,. that if a counter petition could he started he wtxi r ld get :it , signed by some particular friends. From the inguiries he himself had made,- and the information which had reached -Not, he ir'ad reason to b e lie ve th a t the-counter petition was signed by children now employed in the Silk manufactories of the town, though there might be some, but very. few; yodng persons amon , - , them. - He considered him self bound to inform their Lord ships that the petition he had the honour to present- declared-the sense of the great mann factoring interests of the town to be decidedly Against the Catholic Claims, and he was persuaded that if the inhabi tants were polled, th.ey,would be as six to one against them. In stating this particular fact, he wished their •Lordships to understand him ,as attaching no, importance to mere nunibers in ; any case ; for- it was the bounden duty a their' Lordships to legislate in opposition- to numbers, whenever they saw their course clear.- llut there might' be such a thing as mis"- taking, he- would not say undervaluing, the sense of the. people ; for he • certainly held, upon this occasion, that the sense of the people of this country was directly in opposition to the Catholic Claims. , - • The petition•was then read, received, and ordered to lie on the table. • • • tion cannot alleviate or remove. Because, the improved system of Government,. equal administration of the laws, and the intro• duction of capital, will remove all cause of com 'plaint, create employment, and produce industry, comfort, tranquillity, and happiness. Because, it is well known to those best--at quainted with Ireland that the population were perfectly-indifferent to the question of Emanci pation until within the last year, when they Were roused by the exertion of the Catholic Clergy, and'a few political adventurers. Becauseohe immense mass of the people of freland. are in an ignorant and degraded state, and entirely controuled by .a Priesthood under foreign dictation, and who are influenced by po litical- persons and feelings hostile to the mild precepts of the Protestant Religion. Becausei. Popery is not changed, and Catholics will never be content with w h at Parliament will g rant, until they obtain possession of supreme ,power. - Because, it would be an insult to the English Who have ,dtibstgi'riagnutilitoetit'hfeoirr .catholics whod havegtioed on ve c r det been u It i h r tih ir I°bYrletihtY an brethren ado pted . a different t m o e t l i f i e b . r il a o i c : w tr a i ilg th o a f t Coliese",.wlit had never been yielded to them: the cti g e oi c r, " 6l - i t i fi t t i ;t2 " p`r r :c r t y i . c. to oxerase t oleration the A CORRESPONDENT. ti'ZlOorntlittrCrttetiligtoillincs enloy thf.ir Earl GROSVENOR said that the petition just presented by the Right Rev. Prelate had, it was true, lain a long time Tor signatures, but nevertheless it was not till lately that - the Mayor thought proper to-take the sense of the people, and the latter was still of opinion that if 'he had .taken their sense sooner, it would have been in favour of the Catholic Claims. With re spect to the Manchester petition, it lay a bag time for signa tures, as the people were not willing to come forward on either side. At last, however, a public meeting was called by the "Boroughreeve of Manchester ; when it appeared that the people Were decidedly in favour of the Roman Catholics. This was dB he knew upon the subject, and hebelieved this to be a simple statement of facts. The Bishop of CHESTER then presented a petition from Boroughbridge, in Yorkshire, avainst the Catholic• Claims. The Earl' Of SHAFTESBUR Ypresented a petition from 'Linlithgow against the Catholic Claims. THE CATHOLIC_ BILL. At half past five o'clock, his Royal Highness the Duke of York entered the House, and immediately took his seat to the 'left of the Lord 'Chancellor, upon the Woolsack, when the Yeo man 'Usherof the 'Black Rod announced that there:was a - Mes sage from the Commons:• _ table. _ . . . . - Sir John Newport; accompanied by a great number of Meru- , tiers, now approached the' bar, and presenting a' Bill, addressed 'the Chancellor in the followiog.words:—" My Lord, the.l-louse •of:Commons have passed a Bill for removin g the disabilities and, diiqualifications under which, his Majesty's Roman Catholic. 'subjects now_lab.our, and to which Bill they humbly 'pray the concurrence Tof your Lordships." • Lord „Milton, Mr. S. 'Wortley, and Lord Stanley brought up some private Hills; among which was the Rochester 6as ' Liglti Bill; all which were afterwards read a first time. ' Lord A LICK LA ND. presented a petition from the Protestant Dissenters of the comity, of Tipperary in Ireland', in favour of Roman Cithcilic Emancipation: • The petitioner (as woelocnoalleercbteeds): present to their Lordships a petition .of rather Lord KHNVON said, that perceiving that the Bill so long N b v j a e s c the t.t o expected. had now' come up from the' other flouse of Parlia secondly, that the pe 'l?:nrgil,ewlibeiteithiainter was in.

' rlierefore he prayed; that iv Might not pass into a law, lie rust protest against a controul that was - admitted by no other church, and hoped that the Clergy of the, Establishment would rot be the only religious body in the empire whose consciences acre to lie violated by taking an unseriptural oath. The above petition:was read, at length, and ordered .to lie upon the table of the-House. The Earl of DONOUGHMORE now moved the first read ing of the Roman Catholic Relief Bill. • 'He . adverted: to - the ntimbet of petitions which had been so long entrusted to him, and expressed his pleasure in welcoming from the - tither Bouse of Parliament the Bill just teceived by their Lordships. But, looking to the importance of the measure, and the long time it required for consideration, he might have felt disposed to some delay. This would have been his ordinary course, yet as 'the liblidays were fast coming on, coupled with other considerations and circumstances, he could not' consent to postpone the second reading of the Bill beyond Tuesday next. _ a - The Earl.of LIYERPOOL here suggested that the Noble narl had better move that the Bill be printed in the fitst in.: 'stance, after which he'might appoint the second reading. ;The Earl of DONOUGHMORE.—I intend to do both. know perfectly well that the Bill must be printed before it can be discussed, but I thank the Noble Lord opposite for his hint I now move, your Lordships, that the Bill be ordered to be printed, and I alsogive notice that I intend to move the second ? reading of the Bill on Tuesday. neat, for which day I further move that Noble Lords be summoned to attend the service of this House. Upon the motion of the Earl of SHAFTEssuitY, , this House adjourned at a quarter past Six o'Clock to Friday morning. HOUSE OF COMMONS. LEITH ROCK BILL. Sir G. CLERK brought , pp the report upon the Leith Dock On the motion that it be received, - Mr. KENNEDY objected to the measure as uncalled for in its present state. Be had, however, no objection to some corn-. promise being entered into. Mr. AB,ERCROMBY reprobated the practice which pre vailed in private Committees, namely, of Gentlemen coming to a decision on the rights of parties without ever hearing either the Counsel or the evidence upon , the matter to be decided on. Such a practice was a scandal to Members of the House, and an act of injustice towards those persons whose rights were af fected 7 the decision of the Committee. Mr. .ROUGHAM concurred with his Hon. and Learned Friend in loudly reprobating the' practice of voting in Com mittees up stairs without hearing evidence on which to found their opinion. He did not wish to use- harsh terms, but he roust call such a practice careless, aye, and corrupted too.— (Hear, hear !)-The fact could not be disputed, and it was high time that this House should express so decided an opinion upon the scandalous conduct of private Committees, as to put an end to such a disgrace-to this House, and such an injustice to the public. Sir G. CLERK defended the conduct of the Committees who sat for several days, and had bestowed great attention to the matters before them. He, was no friend to Committees de ciding without' hearing all sides—(Hear, hear !)—but he thought this Committee had fairly discharged their duty. Mr. W. DUNDAS also defended the conduct of the Com mittee. , - Al r: ABERCROMBY explained. Alr. SYKLS said he did not attend the Committee, because he could not obtain that information which would govern his vote. Sir R. FERGUSON considered that a more unfair Com mittee never_ yet sat within this House, upon any possible subject. . . Mr. C. W. WYNN thought the House should feel obliged to his Hon. and Learned Friend (Mr. Abercromby) for,bring ing this important subject before their notice. Committees ought to hear most certainly before they decide; and if a report were drawn .up and presented to. this House, by a mere tech nical majority of such a Committee,-he iad- no hesitation in saying it should be sent back.to recomitdered.—(Hear ! ) Sir J. MARJORIBANKS said thatteThad not said a word these three years, and he would not now trouble the House for more than a few moments. He could. safely say, there was no jobbing in that Committee, yet, if therevere he himself, per haps, was the only jobber, for he had a considerable quantity of stock embarked in the Leith Docks. i 3 it IC I E l *Pi'7,lkk; . .
