PROTESTANT . UNION; • ' • - At a MEETING. oflhe PROTESTANT UNION; . (formed 2?al January. 1813, onder the Auspices of ,the late.veneratile GR A Nvit h e; seiAtur, Esq. fur the Defence a l iti Sooport of the PRO I'ESTANT 'RELIGI(ON and the 'BRITISH CO.NSTITL7TION as established at the Glorious Revolu tion 1688), held _at the London Ta'vern, 17th April, lady. STEPHEN (...:AYILEY, Esq. in the Chair ; Jr. w vs ItesoevED, 1. THAT as the Romap Catholics of England and Ireland have announced a deterininatiut) to revive,,wilh renewed activity and vigour, their demands . poWcr,---dettrancl4 which have peen repeattailv resist ed by both Houses of Parliament,—it b e h oves ever y Protest-- ant subject of the British Empire to c on ii t l er ,.with seriousat tention, a question which affects at once both our Civil and Religious 2. That as the existing Laws afford to the Roman Catho lics, in common with their fellow subject's, protection in person and pr o p er ty, and.the;entire toleration of:their religi, ous worship, their manifest object is toObtain Political Power; and, from their - varithis declaratiens and proceedings; we cao not doubt that, whatever may be granted, nothing .spurt of au Eligibility to Political 'Power, Without limitation or re straiut, will satisfy them. In marking the. prugressive...de mands of the Itontan Catholics; we observe that they began sonic years ago with claiming - itunitinities merely provincial, and colifiried to Ireland .; but they now insist on the right to an unlimited scare iti the Government of the. whole Brash Empire, They requite a Political Power which is to affect not 'lreland only, but the administration, at Home, of 'flit whole domestic . affairs of the United Kingdom, and Abroad in its foreign relations, Mid ill all its ininietise 3. l'hat the . Protestant Iteligiou is the peat security of the public happiness and welfare of this country ; f oe ,. as our Civil and Religious Liberties have originated in,. and been preserved by a Pt oteslatit . Constitistion, it. appears to us that those inraltiable blessings will tioutish with its prosperity, and decline with its decay. 4. That the British Constitution and Government are es sentially and fundamentally Protestant; and by a soleniti na tional-compact, at the period of the. glorious Revolution, it wets declared inconsistent with the safety amid welfare of this Protestatit Kicgdoni; that it should be governed by a Popish Prince, or by any King or Queen marrying a Papist, and that all and every person and persons :that should hp reciniciled to, or hold communion with the See or Church of Rome, or, should profess the Popish Religioti, or shou (I marry a Papist, should be excluded, :inch be for ever incapable to inherit and enjoy the Crown and Government of this Realm; and in all such cases the people of these Realms should Ice j absoltt.! of t heir. allegiance, and the Crown and Government descend to the next person in succession, being a Protestantr'also by the Acts of Settlement which have so happily secured the crown of these Realcusao . hiS Majesty and his august Family, it is declared that the succession of the Crown lit the Pro testant Line is fur the liappine-s of the Nation, and the secu rity of our Religion; and that t in the utaintenance of, these Acis " the safety of his Majesty's Person and Government the continuance of the Monarchy of England—the preserva tion of the Protestant Religion—the ulaiiitenane of the Church of England as be law established—the security of the ancient and undoubted (tights and Liberties, and the suture I Peace and Tranquillity of this Kitigdom,—du (under. God:. entirely depend.' S. That by. the Circulation Oath, settled by the national compact entered into eat the Revolution fur establishing the Crowii-on a Protestant basis., the Kings and Queens of this Kitigdom solemnly engage," that they will to theutitiost of their puseet maintain the Laws of God. the true proles (101 l of the Go•pel and the Peulrstant Reformed Religion esta blished try Law ; arta will ',rear:rye unto the Bisimps.and Clergy of the Realm, acid to the Churches committed to their cluir4e, all such rights and privileges as by Law du or shall appertain unto them, or any of t bent and we entirely concur ill the interpretation of that Oath by our veneralae arid beloved So ; vertigo, when he considered that it prohibited his acciiiiesciog in for gluing political potver to his Roman Catholic Subjects: although he had, with the benignity belonging to his character, sauce lotted the repeal of those Penal Laws regard ing the Roman Catholics, which affected the exercise of their Religion and the enjoyment of their property. G. That the Iwo Houses of Parliament, as well as the Privy Council, and the Great Offices of State, are inseparably con fleeted with, and into' nee the whole administration of the Government; mid that a measure Which. shoal(' have for its object the introduction of Roman Catholics into the great councils of the nation, if not contrary to the letter oftlr( Bill. of Rights, would be manifestly so to its spirit: as it would lie. subversive of the great leading principle. upon which the Governmeitt of this realm was settled :attic Revolution. We therefore are of opinion that it is necessary to exclude Roman Catholics (their principles having undergone no a1t0...• ration since the Revolutioo) from all otlices of Legislative and High Pclitical lamer. 7. That rendering Roman Catholics eligible to be Priey Counsellors, is to create the means of suriountling the Sove reign himself with Ministers of State whose religion most be hostile to his own right of succession to the Throne; and by investing them with a Legislative capacity, the means are provided of giving them, if not a majority, such a curisitle. , rattle party in Parli a m e nt, us, und e r some-circumstances, , . would render it impossible to I esist their measures, and might endanger the Interests of the Established Church as well ets other estimable institutions of the Country, and tho•e Rights and Liberties, both Civil and Religious, which Pt utestants uuld sacred. 8. That, although the Roman Catholics did not constitutes tt majtaity of either trouse of Parliament, when, by the Sta• Cate, they were, excluded theta fruai, yet that measure was, declared to be necessary " fur the safety % of his Majesty's Royal Person and Governsnent ;"' and they were rendered ineligible to sit in Parliament, " forasmuch 'as. divers. good laws had been made tor preventing the increase and dan.:er or Popery in this hingdunt, which had not bad the desired effect. by reason of the free access which Popiilt Recusants lead Ito I to his Majesty's Court, and by reason of the iilierty which of late senile of the Recusants had taken to sit and .mote Parliament." • 9. That as the, administration of the laws greatly offsets both the rights and property of the Church • of -England,' as well :is the civil and religious lib, rties of others ion within her pale, mid con,idering the avowed and- intolerant pinch-. ptesot the itonian Catholics with regard to those who di ff er. from them . its mutters of religion, We 119 11,1 t think it would, be compatible with the existroce•of those rights aliii liberties tteittritst ..their ititerptetation- to .11.0mait Catholic Judges ; whose decisions must necessarily be iulluesiced insuine degree, by their peculiar views and opinions. 10. That as the ailiiiissitio of the Roman . Cath lief to !eels. , !alive' power, and to those offices which, guide the State, could nut be granted without great danger;: neither would the plan which its advocates proeosed Ur the last have the desired effect of conciliating • and allaying - the ela-, moors of the Roman -Catholies. "I. hose advocates.proptised to guard their nn'aistit es by rest fictions ; o t Itontn. Cat holies . profess theruselv.s insulted by the suspicions implied in those - restrictions. The same tensonittg.is now appli e d . a s,was, fi r st .used, when a. t elaxation of th e. Pettal LAWS, and 0: tler.adva hot Secretary of tages, were prayed; 'aid State for Ireland declared, When time Electiee Franchise was granted in 1793,1115 t. the concession; then ' made • would satisfy every rational Catholic in the 'Kitigdom, arid , tbat nothing further - could be granted With satetrto the lii:otestant Esta blishment, We have seen alteoncessionsgetierate at 4ltit . eflicsli detuaiols, ' allfh supply the ar4:111/. 161 ,ps , V.!till as athlitivna I oceans f ur 0 1,t a i n i ng !tterfore , apprcliend that the measure, with all its guards, will not satisfy the Roatati.Ca holies ; but While itwill Meade the must valuable andaacred part of the British ( onstitution,•• it will place in their-hands a power which will ultimately, suttryrt the foundation of our Monarchy. •. 11.

That your Memorialists have at all times given their support ° the Established Institutions of the Kingdom with loyalty and zeal ; and that circumstanced and depressed as their property they find two measures brought under the consideration of E !arliarnent, which, if carried into effect, will destroy the small I.e lakling hope left to them of struggling with their present difficulties, as they were contented to do until the return of pro fitable employment, namely, " The Equalization of the Duties crz Foreign and Colonial Timber"—and " The Relaxation of " the Navigation Laws ;" that by reason of the existing duties, of Nei price of labour, and of every article necessary to the e quipment of British ships, when compared with other Nations, / . ° ll r Memorialists cannot enter into successful competition with l'e'reigners, That it appears to your Memorialists the Equalization of the Tlrnber Duties will annihilate the Colonial Timber Trade, and thereby throw out of employment an immense tonnage of ships without the possibility of any employment being found for Ahem That as evidence of no additional channels of trade being ac °%sible. to British shipping, employment cannot be found at Present for the whole shipping now otherwise engaged than izl the Colonial Timber Trade, and a certain portion of such fps are only calculated for that particular trade, and of the la tter some not calculated for the Timber Trade of Northern Europe: That by means of an equalization of these duties, a total stop Would be put to Ship Building, and ruin inevitably fall on the aereral branches connected with it ; the principal ones which would he immediately affected are the Rope-maker, Sail-cloth-manu facturer, Boat-builder, Copper, and Iron-smith, and various o thers, and last, but not least, that of " Mariner." That as affecting the whole population of the Kingdom, a aserifice of the Shipping Interest, by any relaxation of the Na Nation Laws, or any equalization of the Foreign Duties, l ' °lll d more extensively and vitally affect the prosperity and lbet ` 4-1 - 0 1 livelihood of a larger portion of such population than the p ' lr ize of any other Trading Interest whatever. Majesty' s Your Memorialists beg leave to call the attention of His Government to that vital security of the Country : nl ch it possesses i n its NAVY, and to the fatal inroad on that urity which Will necessarily arise from a diminution of the "laritime Carrying Trade. That your Memorialists do not here enter into a detail of the l'arlous advantages derived by the Agricultural, Trading, and eftmercial Interests of the Country from the Colonial Timber Tim . ea but wan reference to the supposed advantages to arise fro, anY transfer of that Trade to the Ports of the North of , -r °Pe, your Memorialists confidently submit, that the advan- I sl ges are greatly in favour of the Colonial Trade, as now regu -4alcd by 1,,, x ;. That your Memorialists cannot, in consequence of, the exist rt 'duties, the greater value of British labour, and also of the 114'eased charges of Navigation, compete with Foreigners in We a rrYing Trade, and as the relaxation of the Navigation As by a Report of the late Committee of the I °° °nrable Souse of Commons, yoUr Memorialists earnestly 4111ait, that the permanent interest and safety of the Country tL e°ll44.4 a in th e i r being upheld without relaxation ; and a nY alteration of those Laws founded on that Re wherein they recommend " the relaxation of the principles , t Of. t he Acts 12th, 13th, and 14th of Charles the Second to the externs• ‘, of 0. admitting ta,, importation into the nite........uguom, 't ~,t 4° Produce of every part of the world, from every part ":"''Worfd without rentrence to the place of their growth lirod ~ , • place in British ''14 414 - ,, nee, provided such importance takes th e would be ruinous to the shipping interest, and finally for b ei cl4 ° l l7 at large, as your Memorialists have just grounds; $e —ey ing that the LONG carrying Trade will be transferred f or , - .13, gn bottoms, and the produce imported from some NEAR t ri t he European Continent, where the greatest encourage haPiens to be given as an entrepot, by small craft or , tri 1i ' ll v essels, t o t h e complete exclusion' of the more important 41 Ca rrying Trade. 4.nat Your .Memori-d , sts beg leave to press upon the con • of alas Majesty's Government, that upon such an t aking Place h would be the interest o some neigh ?owe:to create such free port contiguous to the British in order to increase their own maritime strength and which would necessarily diminish and supplant the Sh: shipping and marine. His hvuld Majesty's Government permit the great j r i ter of the Navigation Laws to be broken d own , enacte d , as e ti P r eamble to one of those statutes emphatically states, " for increase of Shipping, and encourageMent of the Navi gation of this nation, wherein under the good providence and Protection of God, the wealth, safety, and strength of this ILe ngdom . is so much concerned," the barrier which protects IT Landed Inter es t in the restrictive C orn L aws; cannot pos °lY be maintained, neither will the Government be able to 3. - 7 e th.. necessary Revenue of the St a t e , your M emorialists Other fall a sacrifice to any new principle. Your Memorialists therefore particularly entreat the atten tion of your Honourable Board to these important sub-, elects, and that no alteration may take place in the exist ing Regulations which may tend to the further de pression and decrease in the employment of British Shipping.
