CATHOLIC , ENSLAVEMENT BILL. [From the CalAolie ddaecate.] " The opposition to this Bill, we are happy to aee, increases every day in Ireland. The Ca tholic Clergy of Waterford, Carlow, Cork, Ar tlagh, Clonfert, Cloync and Ross, Killaloe, Aabeau, and . Prozheda l have met and. denounc ed the restriction clauses as injurious and sub versive of the free exercise of their religion. _ *`,An aggregate meeting of -the Catholics of the county of Kerry Was held at Tralee on the 31st tit. when resoletions protesting against the Veto istical clauses were entered into. On Monday the 2d instant, a meeting of the Catholics of the county- and city of Cork was held. in Care7's lane chapel, and exceeded in numbers and re spectability any thing of the kind which took place• in Cork for some years. In one of the re solutions passed by this assembly they say— ' We do for ourselves and our children protest against that bill passing into a law, as it would be more oppressive, penal, and afflictive to con science and religion, than any statute in force in Ireland during the blackest days of persecution and bigotry.' We are also glad to see this meet in take the measure up as infringing their civil' -rights ; and affecting those of their Protestant Countrymen, an:l retarding the progress of the great national Cause of Parliamentary Reform. On this subject the meeting came to the follow ing resolution : • "Tat we deem it a duty 10 - ich we owe to our Protestant Fellow-coantryrnen, as well as to ourselves, to declare our firm and decided opposition to the said intercourse Bill, inasmuch 'as we deem it a meas7ro calculated to increase the already overgrown influence of the Crown, and to gic.e to Ministers the -patronage of another Church, and thereby to aggravate all th e evils of the Fesmt systzrn, and accumulate fresh difficulties in the way of necessary reform and rational liberty." " Previous to moving the resolutions, Counsel lor Coppinger addressed the meeting in a speech replete with eloquence, spirit, and forcible rea soning. After describing in glowing terms the insult offered to the people of Ireland, by Mr. Plunkett, in attempting to sully the fair fame of the successors of St. Patrick, by providing vouchers for their I)eaceable conduct, when they are, by their sacred office, the harbingers of peace; and noticing the outrageous injustice of this Learned Gentleman, who would prevent ' the Catholic youths of Ireland from obtaining the re -wards of honourable ambition in their native uni versity, and carefully exclude Catholics from an v voice in parish vestries, or even from voting at the election of a churchwarden,' yet would, at the same time,.' place the entire government of their church, the appointment of their bishops and deans, for the power given by the bill vir tually amounts to this., and even their private communications with the see of Rome, under the controul of a body of Protestants,' as a prac tical measure' to satisfy and conciliate all parties, Mr. Coppinger goes on,— " It has been said that the provisions of Mr. Plunkett's Bill only affect the clergy, and that they alone are called upon todnteriere : but surely any measure which strikes at the purity and stability of a religion, of Which they are but the ministers, meet rouse the feelings of every sincere member of that religion, and o nake him raise his voice while there is yet time in its sacred defence ; the Catholic prelates and the clergy of Irelend braved perse.eution in its fiercest shape, and never abandoned their Locks in the. worst of times ; and shall we, at a crisis like the ;resent, when the trumpet of alarm hes been sounded, stand aloof from the danger, and suffer - this venerable body to sus tain the whole brunt of the battle.l--(Applause, and cries of nerer, never.)--Has the noble, high minded character of our et:a:nary been entirely changed ? I-ks the spirit of her children at length evaporated, away a And must Irishmen upon all oc casions be actuated by no higher of worthier motives, than a low, - sordid, calculating policy? Must the tenderest ties that bind satiety together, must even religion itself, too, be made a subject of trafh.c ? And must all considerations now be sacri eed to the sordid desire of wealth, and place, and polder ? (lf ear, hear !)-But 1 know my Cathciic countrymen too well, to fear that they will Dever barter their venerable religion for any temporal advantages whatsoever. This religion is doubly . deer to us at the present moment, both as Irishmen, and as Ca friars', it, is the only remaining monument of Ireland's former . greatness and prosperity;. it is the only existing record to tell us that we were once a nation.—(Loud applause.) • " The genius of Universal Emancipation is now abroad ; already, with the rapidity of lightning, is she spreading her benign , influence over the Nations of the 'World ;—and shall the Catholic people cf Ireland, at sad) a crisis, think of surrendering the last remnant of their country's liberty without remonstrance? Is tale the moment to enter into a disgraceful compromise, and for a few temporal-privileges to disregard the interests of our holy religion, and hand over our clergy, bound hands and feet, to the .runes ter of the dey?—(Loud cries of we never will.)—Better, far better, to end our days in slavery ; than accept Einancipa . ton under the degrading conditions in Mr. P.'s bill of pains and penalties.; and, for my own part, I would sooner,see the Penal Cede re-enacted, than become a consenting party .to the passing of this Bill—(Cheers),—convinced as I am that it would. be the' death-blow not only to the Catholic religion in Ire land,•,bot to the remaining - liberties.of - the. country; it would besides materially strengthen the forces of corruption, by in creasing, the already overgrown influence of the. Crown—and the mere passing of such a Mll e should •it unfortunately be come alaw, must prove the necessity of a REAL REFORM in Pa:liarnent.; for without this measure, it is in vain for the 4l,tholica of Ireland to look for any thing like satisfactory re- It is to h.

" Oh ! *hat a contrast have we here between the'noble sentiments of this truly patriotic and independent friend to his country and liberty, and the grovelling language of the poor things who call themselves the Catholic board. and who boast of their high pedigree and descent from the barons of Runnymede. These latter creatures, for we cannot term them men, have fawningly thanked the two factions of the Lower,House for haring passed a bill which must consign their clergy to chains and probably to dungeons, should it ultimately become a law. So far as A PART of the ENGLISH clergy are concerned, we think they deserve no pity, as they have shown themselves too read!' to lend their aid in favour o f the macui vutions of their betrayer's, and support the system which is- bent upon TUNIR. destruction. However, *e trust, the time is not far distant when they - will discover their folly, and retract their errors before it is too late."' . • VO r.:c N INTELLIGENCE. lii:DMO NT. " GDNOA, Aran. 1, 1321. " A vessel from Naples, which place she left the evening of the 27th of March, has anchored in this port. The Austrians entered that city on the 24th, n I rnentioaed in my lett n. of Sa .turlay. I have just seen a letter to the most respectable Eng 7.r.iii lieuse (Mr. Gibbs) from Naples, dared the tIVa. It states ' that the advance of the Austrians to that city was to the great surprise of its inhabitants, who were not deficient in either courage or means to defend themselves. A complete mystery, hangs over the whole transaction. the indignation of the people is beginring to manifest itself in a manner which ever) , humane mind must rcerct. Last night twenty Austians were murdered. -There is, lam sorry to say, - little doubt of the fact.' Another letter of the date et the 27th elates, that on the unexpected ad vance of the 30,0f10 Austrians, the Parliament retired to Salerno, as did the army under the • command of Pepe. On the evening the vessel sailed, viz. the 27th, the work of carnage was going on, and a promismous massacre was expected. Such are the Christian results of the Holy Alliance, if those letters convey acts. An express arrived here last night from Novara, which states that Prince de Carignan, being deserted by - the kw regiments stationed in that gareison, had withdrawn himself out of Piedmont and retired to Modena, where the Duke of Genoa also remained. It is confidently asserted this morning that the Russian Ambassabor at Turin had offered the media tion of his Imperial Master to the Provisional Government of this kingdom, and that it has been accepted. This offer, if true, is at least a sacrifice to the spirit that prevails throughout the whole of Italy of those unjustifiable pretensions with which the Congress of Laybach began its abominable aggres sion on - e rights of independent nations. The Piedmontese I t believe ~be a reasonable, as well as a brave people. If Aus tria, un a:eked by the appearances which present themselves on every side, ,shall drive them te the necessity of a sanguinary resistance, I think they are a people of that temperament who can screw their courage to the sticking place, and that the ag gressor must prepare for a conflict similar to that which Napo leon experienced in Spain. Officers of the greatest experience they can have from France. The Provisional Government, I learn, are daily receiving tenders .of service. The fears of Austria are very visible, from the notification in the inclosed Genoa Gazette of the Milan Governor." " TURIN, ArRIL 7.—The following is an address from the army of Alessandria to the troops concentrated, at Novara : " SQLDIER3 or NOVARA.—WiII you then complete the ruin of your country by uniting yourselves with her cruellest enemies ? ►'ill you consent to mingle your banners with those which have for 13 years fled at your very name, and which were fatal to you only when they had contaminated yours by becom ing allied to them ? " The safety of those barbarians then depended on ' , Our dis union ; and you, credulous, and unpractised in their arts, will soon have to endure the insults of their arrogance and contempt. Ah! no, brothers; let us: embrace; wa are not those rebels which our common enemies would persuade you we are. Be hold our standards, and you will see that they unfurl to the winds the names of our country and our King : we swear to be faithful to them, and to fight till death in their defence. We appeal to Europe whether these are the sentiments of rebels, or the most sacred that a nation can boast. " But, comrades; if, immoveable in your dcter7.;ination, you will not join yourselves to us, tkn fare ye well : alone we Will meat thecnerny, and you will soon be roused from your repose by the noise of our victory. God will assist our sacred cause, and we will deliver from the bands of our enemies our Sovereign, whose Own free wishes are concealed from every one. Yes, we will conquer ; and if ever adverse fortune should counteract cur courage, you will) have to shed a late and useless tear over the tombs of you: brethren, whose deaths you will envy after Iming =mimed them. " THE ARMY OF ALESSANDRIA." "' Yesterday being the King's Mirth-day the Provisional Jun ta has caused the following notice to be posted up : " Citizens.! The anniversary has returned of that happy day which gave birth to the King Charles Felix, the-pledge of con cord amongst us, our hope, and the nation's glory. " While the general ivish anticipates the moment when he shall eppear amidst his loyal people-transported with the joy of peace, the Provisional Junta desires that the citizens, pane triited with sentiments of fidelity towards their august Monarth, shall exhibit some public testimony of their veneration. " Many long and happy years may he reign among us, and protect this generous nation with - those liberal institutions which the lights of the a7, , e have promised, and which a g-enerel and ardent desire has sought to obtain.

The Etc liTli BULLETIN of our Army in Italy contains the details already known respecting the entry of this Army into Naples ; but the follow ing are further particulars : EIIHTH BULLETIS OF THE ARMY OF ITALY. " In the morning of the 24th_March the revolutionary Par liament was dissolved, and an intimation was given to the few members who were present, that they might retire to their re spective homes. The. Provisional Gereenment, nominated by the King, has entered into full activity, under the superintend ance of the 11larluess of Circerio. His first act was to issue a decree, reinstating all the official persons employed by the King in the situations they occupied previous to the 6th July. " At the instant that the Austrian army began its march for ' the capital, the Governor of Naples came to meet the General- in-Chief with unsealed orders, signed by the Duke of Calabria, addressed to the Officers commanding at Gaeta and Pescara, to: deliver up those fortressesimmediately. As General Pagani, notwithstanding the suspension of arms, had, in the evening of the 22d, made a sortie with some gun-boats against the Ant trim tzoops posted. at C:e mouth of the Garigliano : Captain Zuccer7 was sent to him, to state, that if, after the order abo-ve mentTened, he did .not immediately evacuate the fortress, he would be treated as a rebel. • " The fortress of Gaeta did, in effect, surrender on the 2r.:th.

The Moniieur of Friday states, that news had just arrived at Paris, by expre:.s, which may be considered as authentic,announcing that the Austrians PASSED VIC TESSIN°, on the Bth of. April, and in front of Novara met the troops . of Alessandria, who made no resistance. This first corps was diskrsed. There was rea son to believe that the citadel of Turin would in two hours be delivered up`to the royal authorities: and that every thing would he settled in four days. Twenty-five thousand Austrians are in Piedmont. The Gazette de Evnee says, that an other courier had brought the intelligence of the entry of th , ..! Austrians into Alessandria and Turin, on the oth, of which towns they took possession in . the - narn,, and as allies of the - hint, of SAgnltir.t.: Accordl'hg to the terms of a convention, the Pied- montese troops arc to garrison these towns in con junction with the Austrians. This operation was effected with slight opposition. The King Vic tor EmnANUEL has quitted Nice for the capital. The Revolution which has broken out in Mol davia, Walachia, and Bulgaria, is of so serious a nature that Austria and Russia have determined on taking every necessary measure of pre caution. It is not certain whether these powers will act in concert with the Porte to reduce the insurgents to subjection, or whether they will only collect troops to observe the issue of an insurrection which has been long meditated and arranged. A Vienna article re ports that several Russian officers and soldiers are fighting in the ranks of the insurgents in Mol davia, notwithstanding the public declaration of their Sovereign. It appears that General 7.;uo,thr is to be em ployed with General CIIISIICH in reorganizing the Neapolitan army on its ancient footing. FP.I7NCII FUNDS. April 12, Five per Cr-rit:3.

" LIQBON, MARCH 30.—(Ofcial Article.)---The Portuguese schooner Vigilante entered this port to-day, coming from the Island of St. Migud with dispatches from the Government, stating, that on the Ist of March it was unanimously re sliced by the Inhabitants, the Chamber, Nobi lity, Troops, and Ecclesiastical Bodies, to pro claim the Constitution of Portugal, and to choose a Junta of five Members, for the purpose of electing Deputies to the Cortes, and for the pre servation of public order. It . was thought neces sary to suspend the authority of the Governor, I.cause he refused to adhere to the unanimous wishes of the inhabitants. " To-day also arrived the Portuguese galley General Lecor in 65 days from Rio de Janeiro. The captain states, that at his departure the ship D. Joao VI., commanded by the Concle de Vian na, was completely fitted up and ready ; that it was said it would convey the. Prince Royal to Portugal, though no preparations were made for immediate departure, because the delivery of the Princess Royal was waited for; that the people of Rio Janeiro were extremely satisfied, as his Majesty she . ..ved himself inclined to favour the cause of Portugal; that five days before his de parture the trading brigantine Espadarte had sailed for Lisbon ; and lastly, that since the ar- rival of the Conde de Palrnella at Rio, the ap pearance of political affairs in regard to Portugal had changed. Such is the account given by the Captain of the General Lecor, which has brought no dispatches for the Government."—(Diario Ala I?.egencia, March 31.) [These Papers contain the ofkicial details of the revolution at Tani., also of the splendid cere mony of taking the oath to the Const.;!..ution in the Church of St. Dorn egos.] N week has scarcely elapsed since the cause of the Roman Catholics triumphed in an English House of Commons. We did not participate. in the satisfaction which the result of . the question gave to certain parties;—viewing it as a measure fraught with awful consequences to the Protes tant Faith, whether holden in the Established Church or amongst any description of Protestant Dissenters. The Raman Catholic Bill was. car ried through the House with unusual rapidity, and the zeal of its opponents formed a lament able contrast to that displayed by its supporters. Candour is all very well in its place, and mutual concessions of opinion very advisable, when they can be made with safety ; but when the dear bought experience of our ancestors is disregarded, and an attempt is made to sweep aWay the bul warks which they had provided for' us, it its high time to put candour and compliment in the back ground, and boldly to stand in the breach on be half of all that is dear to. us as Christians and Englishmen ! All good subjects are bound to re spect the decision at which the Hopse of Com mons arrived ; and it will be their duty to acqui esce in it, should it be confirmed by the-other branches - of the Legislature. A majority of from fourteen .to twenty against the Bill is, however, confidently anticipated in the House of Lords, and the Earl of DoNononmone not having his forces quite ready on Tues day, the second reading was, en his Lordship's motion, poitponed to this day, when it will certainly be moved, and our venerable Loan CHANCELLOR, as the " Keeper of the King's con science," will take the field on. behalf of Liberty and Protestantism. Oh ! had it been possible for GEORGE THE THIRD to have regarded some late trr.ns:tctiorts—;Could he have looked upon the land which he governed for more than sixty years —what won hl have been his feelings ? Why, giving his faithful Commons every credit for their intentions, he would nevertheless have la d his hand on his seeptre--from thence have conducted it to his heart—and told them, that although ,he valed their opinion, he could not cutter that opi %pion to interfere wilh his conscience !—We have llearil much s k id as lo the propriety.or impropri ety of Petitions upon the Roman Catholic Ques tion, and the conduct of the advocates of the Roman Catholic Claims has been very inconsistent upon Ciis pohlt.
