GLOBE.—A week or two ago our readers may have noticed the appearance of a bulky pamphlet, en titled " India and Lord Ellenborough." It purports to be an examination, under Whig views, of his Lord ship's recent conduct in India. Within the last few days another pamphlet, in " reply," has reached us. The importance of the subject, in reference to ap proaching discussions in Parliament, has induced us to give each a careful perusal. Neither of the writers has, in our opinion, made the most of his case ' • but their labours have served to bring some of the leading points within a compass somewhat more easy to grasp than the enormous mass of official papers in which they were previously buried. The author of the first-named pamphlet, after devoting some twenty four pages to a review of the origin and growth of our political power in India, enters upon a defence of the power of recal vested in the Court of Directors, and recently exercised upon Lord Ellenborough. That the legal right exists, of course cannot be • doubted. It is a part of the original power of the Company over its officers. It was distinctly recognised by Mr. Pitt's Act (1784), creating the Board of Control, and has been confirmed by every subsequent Act affecting the powers of the Company, down to the present time. It is justified by the large pecuniary interests of the Company in our Indian empire, and is properly vested in the Court of Direc w tors, as the responsible guardians of those interests. That its retention by them through every modifica tion of their powers and functions made during the last sixty years, is due only to an "oversight," or to the absence of any" discussion" or "consideration" of the matter by the Legislature (as repeatedly asserted in Parliament during the last session), is manifestly absurd. In the Act of 1793, and again in that of 1813, the " Governor-General " is particularly specified as ono of the " officers or servants" of the Company, over whom the Directors are to exercise the powers of appointment and recal "at their will and pleasure." The Act of 1833 is more general in its terms, but still completely inclusive of the right accorded by the previous Acts. In truth, however, the right does not depend upon ) these statutory recognitions of its existence. It has its b foundation in the original constitution of the Com ) 7 pany, and nothing but an express enactment can take it away. The power it affords to the Directors of checking the career of a nominee of the Ministry, whose incompetency or dishonesty may place their interests in jeopardy, is one which, in some shape or other, cannot fairly be denied to them while a their interests remain what they are. Whether 3 this particular mode of applying the check be the best that could be devised, is matter for discussion. That it ought to exist, and that its application in this instance was just and necessary, and 1 34 has been most beneficial in its results, is not to be doubted. A glance at the particular circumstances attending his Lordship's nomination and recal most 336 completely confirms the inferences drawn from the more general view of the question. It is believed 54 that in his appointment the Directors were nearly unanimous—it is generally known that, as to his removal, they were quite so. Why this complete revolution of opinion ? Only about two years had elapsed between the events, and the 5 change took place where groundless or capri ) 3N cious changes were little likely to occur. "If any one quality were to be selected as peculiarly charac r teristic of the Court of Directors of the East India 3% Company, it would be caution. Every member of ss,, the Court has a pecuniary stake in India, and the o Court, collectively, are the representatives of the o great body of claimants upon its territory. Among 13L the Directors are men personally acquainted with India, and with the sources from which danger ' 34 in that country is likely to arise ; men trained by long experience in civil, political, legal, tary, and maritime affairs ; merchants of great r M eminence, and bankers of the highest standing ; 5 14 most of them are of mature age, and the political 5% 3 opinions of the majority are those of the party e 34 3 with which Lord Ellenborough has generally acted." For sixty years they have held, substantially, their present relative position in the government of 4 India, and with it, this right to recal the Governor- General. Disuse tends to weaken as much as use 1 5 strengthens a mere legal right. They deliberated long, and heard all that could be urged by the GoverNment against the step, yet took it unani mously, and gave to Lord Ellenborough the first place on the list of recalled Governors-General. 134 The " eminence" is not an enviable one, but his 5% 5 Lordship has fairly won, and long may he wear it. The author of the " Reply" (whose work bears upon rag, almost every page that " damning proof" of conscious weakness—a resort to abuse in lieu of argument) — admits the existence of the power of recal, but strenu „s% ously denies that it ought to exist. He declares that s% responsibility fur the acts of the Governor - General rests entirely with the Ministry, and that an East India a Director, in giving his vote, his responsible only "to his own breeches pocket." We cannot pretend to guess what the proprietors of East India stock may think of this line of argument; we cannot better declare our to opinion of it than by culling a single flower from the 5 % extensive rhetorical parterre of its author :—it is " the 8 it most contemptible specimen of controversial imbecility 5 we ever remember to have met with." But there is r!‘ no ground for apprehension. A broad principle of justice is involved, and a British Parliament will not 3 be blind to it. With this source of confidence we may look even upon the wounded vanity of the Earl s of Ellenborough with indifference. A dissection o ° of the " Papers relating to military operations a in Affghanistan," and the other documents now a 534 published respecting the transactions of 1842.3 . can a only lead to conclusions more or less unfavourable to ' 2— the opinion, that Lord Ellenborough was a fit person to be entrusted with the government of India. Of course, these documents furnish, atfer all, but a por tion of the materials upon which alone a complete and comprehensive judgment can be formed. Much o of what concerns matter of detail must necessarily be 0 7 left out of consideration, and a large portion of the re • mainder can only be judged of with accuracy by those 6 familiar with the real difficulties and the real resources of a Governor-General acting under such circum -7 stances as those encountered by Lord Ellenborough. 7% Such a familiarity is possessed by few in this coun s~tryand his Lordship has a fair claim to the benefit , 7% of its paucity. But where his judges cannot be sure, 2 they can afford to be lenient. There is sufficient 9 evidence to convict without resorting to what is of s doubtful p;oof. 'What is seen, and of the nature of a% which no shadow of doubt can be entertained, is 13 4 quite enough ; though we should stop short, and 4% hesitate to infer the rest. Our space will not permi` a of our entering upon this part of the subject at pre e% sent ; but we shall take an early opportunity of re 1 % turning to it. 2 7 1 ,4 230 29 CA % 90% London, Chatham, and Chilham, London, Chatham, and Gravesend.

CocoA.-The dullness in the West India market has increased, and former rates are barely supported ; there has been scarcely any business doing by private con tract, and at public sale 224 packages were all taken in-Trinidad mixed red at 41s, ord rather mouldy 40s. Foreign is still wanted, and prices rule high in consequence of the scanty supply at market. MoLAsbEs.-This afternoon there was less demand for West India Molasses, and 152 puns at auction were only partly sold at 19s 6d for ordinary, and at lis per cwt for very low quality. TEA.-The market is firm, and importers still refrain from offering any at public sale, the deliveries have again exceeded the arrivals, and the stock consequently has further diminished. Congou has been more inquired after during the last few days, and a fair business has been transacted at full prices, common selling at lld to Hid, and good common 1 lid to is id per lb, the market is sparingly supplied with all descriptions. Pouchong has met with a good sale, but not at higher rates, common fetching 7d to Bd, and the better sorts 9d to is 2d per lb ; the lower sorts are most in request. In Twankay the transactions are uon a more extended scale, common at Is 24d to Is 3id per lb. Hysou is much in request and in consequence of the short supply prices are fully as high, common fetching 2a 7d to 2s Bd, mid 2s 9d to 2s 10d, good 2s lld to 3s, and fine 3s 2d to 4s 6d per lb. There are several buyers of young Hy son, but there is little in the market. Imperial and Gunpouder are little inquired for, but prices do not give way. Fine scented Orange Pekoe is fetching 3s 4d to 3s 5d per lb, and there is still a scarcity of this kind of Tea. The clearances of Tea for home consumption from this port are going on at the rate of half a million pounds weekly. The trade do net hold a large quan tity of black or green. The quantity of Tea in specula ' tors' hands is less than for some years at this time. SPICES.-This afternoon black Pepper met with less attention, and 1,000 bags of Malabar at auction sold at a decline on former rates of per lb-half heavy selling at 3d to 3 1 0, heavy sid to aid, light 2-ad to 20, and sea damaged 2id to qa. Cassia Lignea was in good demand, and 400 boxes at public sale all sold at full prices for the low and mid kinds, but good went Is to 2s per cwt cheaper-good thin sold at 65s 6d, good mid 60s to 61s 6d, mid 56s 6d to 58s 6d, low mid 54s to 54s 6d, ord coarse 52s to 52s 6d, good ord 53s to 53s 6d, discoloured 51s to 555, broken ends 53s 6d to 54s 9d, mouldy 51s to 53s 6d, and broken 48s 6d to 49s per cwt 111124, BRANDY, AND HOLLALDS.-The home and ex port {,demand for Jamaica Rum has been limited this week ; only small parcels have been sold, at 3s 6d to 3s 8d for common and mid quality, 28 to 30 per cent over proof. In Leeward: there has been very little busi ness done, and there are sellers of proof at 2s 3d. Calcutta Rum, 2s to 2s Id per gall proof, with certificate. Demerara at 3s Id to 3s 3d for good and fine strong qualities. The stock of Brandy is still diminishing, and for the best de scriptions there has been a good demand since our last report.

SALTPETRE.-This afternoon rough was less wanted, and 400 bags of Madras at auction were taken in at 25s to 25s 6d for mid white rather damp 10Eper cent refrac tion, being the full worth. COCUINEAL. - An increased desire has been mani fested to purchase this article, and prices are still going up ; indeed there is not sufficient at market to supply the wants of shippers or tha home trade. At auction 86 bags of Honduras were nearly all disposed of at Id per lb advance, fine bold silvers at 4s 10d to 4s I ld, good 4s 8d to 4s 9d, mid 4s 7d, very low foxey to ordinary 4s 5d to 4s 6d; 18 bags of Granilla sold at is 9d to 2t 10d for small ordinary and good bold, and 3 bags of Garblings at Is 6d to is 9d per lb. The ships arrived of late have brought a less quantity of Cochineal than was expected. Ou.s.-Importers of Cod Oil are anxious sellers on account of the increasing arrivals, and have submitted to a reduction on previous rates of lOs to 15s; buyers, however, are more inclined to do business upon these terms, and at 291 lOs to 30/ per tun several parcels have been disposed of. Seal at 321 103 to 33/ for pale; 30/ to 311 for yellow, 311 to 321 for straw, and at 281 to 291 for brown. Southern 281 to 33/ per tun for low to tine. Sperm, British 851 to 881 per tun accepted.

Olive 421 to 43! paid for Gallipoli ; 41/ to 42/ fur Spanish, 411 for Sicily, and 391 to 40/ per tun for Barbary and Levant.

MARKET INTELLIGENCE. (From the London New Price Current of Jan. 17.) Sucsx.—To-day the demand was limited for all de scriptions of B. P. Sugar. Prices are still drooping, and rule above is under that of last Friday for brown and inferior yellow, and 6d for the better kinds. The total purchases for the week are only 1,450 hhds and tierces. 'lle market closes flatly for West India, Bengal, Mauri tius, and Madras Sugar. REFINED.—To-day there was not much demand for refined goods for home consumption, and prices are still going down ; brown lumps 71s 6d to 725, and standard lumps 72s 6d per cwt. Of Foreign refined in bond there is very little of any description offering, and none for present delivery, very extensive contracts having been made for six weeks and two months to come, Crushed has been sold at 31s 3d to 31s 9d, and 10 lb Loaves at 33s 6d per cwt. 2.laulimus.—lmportes of this description of Sugar are desirous to realise, and having supplied the market largely, has produced a decline on previous rates of is to is 6d for middling good and fine yellow, of which the supply principally consists ; on inferior brown and grey sorts, the fall has been 6d per cwt. This afternoon there was little business done is Mauri tius Sugar by private contract, 349 bags at auction were sold at rather lower rates, mid yellow at 54s to 555. good mid 565, good 58s to 595, aid mid brown 46s per cwt, EAST INDIA.—This afternoon four parcels of Bengal Sugar duty paid, amounting to 3,764 bags 143 chests, were submitted to public competition, and nearly the whole found purchasers ; yellow, of which the bulk con sisted, went at a decline of is to is 6d per cwt, low greyish selling at 47s 6d to 505, mid 503 6d to 51s 6d, mid rather bright 51s Gd to 53s 6d, good middling 56s 6d to 575, damp and washed 41s to 565; on white the decline was 6d, fine selling at 65s to 68s, mid to good 60s to 645, damp and washed 57s to 66s ; 548 bags in bond went cheaper, that is to say, mid bright yellow at 27s 6d to 28s, damp and washed 25s 6d to 27s 6(1 ; of Madras 133 bags duty paid fetched 52s 6d to 53s fid for damp yellow, and 50s 6d for washed. FOREIGN.—Holders of all descriptions have confidence, and retrain from offering any at public sale ; at present none is announced. For yellow Havannah fully former rates are insisted upon, but there has been only a small amount of business done by private contract this week, offers for large parcels rather under previous prices have been made, but rejected by merchants. In white little business has been transacte d . but prices do not give way. For Brown Brazil fully late rates are offered, but the supply is still scanty, and not ample for the de mand. The market is firm for white, and the demand is on the increase. FRUIT.—For Currants the holders are demanding higher prices ; new Zante has been sold at 48s, Patras 49s to 50s, and some of the importers have withdrawn their parcels from the market. Valentia Raisins are steady, of Red Smyrna and Chesme there is a good I supply, the demand only limited at present. COFFEE.—Although the stock of West India Coffee is heavy, exceeding that of last year by 98 casks 1,611 brls and bags, still merchants have manifested firmness, and the market . has been sparingly supplied ; previous ra tes are maintained for all cl ea n kinds, but buyers have b een cautious in their proceedings by private contract, and only 19 casks 7 brls were offered at auction, which went at 59s to 60s for fine ord uncl ean J ama i ca , triage 40s, fine fine ord Berbice 58s, good ord 455, and triage 40s, but a part only was disposed of; unclean sort s ma y be pur chased at low rat es.

The contrast between ' the net and the linen is darker and more striking than we have yet seen produced, even by the needle, and has a truly elegant and unique appearance. At present it is made in stripes, the net being slighted ornamented, either with bullet holes or the insertion of threads, in the same manner as traverse warp nets are in general ornamented. These puffs can, when required, be in stantly stopped and succeeded by net, and there is rea son to think that puffed or embossed patterns may be made by the application of the facquard. Frcin what we can learn, the pusher machines are adapted to make this article, which it is hoped will be patronised by the English nobility and gentry in their spring fashions, and thus give a new impetus to native industry. The article is perfectly sound and good, and bids defiance to the ordeal of the wash-tub.—The warp-lace trade is slowly improving, but: is not much increasing in the extent of machinery. Every branch and department seems upon the increase, but the tatting branch appears the most stable and flourishing.—Nottingham Review. " . HEROIC CONDUCT OF A SAlLOR.—Yesterday morn ing, as Mr. Braddy, of St. Margaret's Bank, Roches ter, was heir'' , rowed up the Medway, he saw -1 boy fall overboard from a steam-tug, and having given the alarm two sailors from her Majesty's ship Comus put off in a boat and rowed to the spot. When they got to the place he had sunk, but one of them plunged into the water, dived, and brought up the lad in a state of in sensibility ; but he was speedily restored. On Monday morning, at about four o'clock, a fire, entirely the result of accident, broke out at No. 6, Edgar buildings, Bath, the residef.ce of Col. Strutt, but which, by timely assistance, was confined to the badroom of that gen ' tlemaa, in which it originated. We are sorry, however, to state that,in addition to the alarm which the accident occa sioned, the Gallant Colonel suffered personal injury from the flames, being much scorched on his hands and face, as did also his daughter, the Hon. Emily Strutt, who, in her endeavours to extinguish the fire, was very severely burned on her hands and about her head and face. — Devizes Gazelle. We have been informed that at the annual dinner of a Society, comprising the male members of the Uni tarian congregation in Kidderminster, which took place on Tuesday evening last, at the Talbot Hotel, Mr. H. Talbot, jun., in the chair, in the course of the evening " The Health of Sir Robert Peel and her Majesty's Ministers" was proposed by Mr. Thomas Hopkins, who warmly eulogised the Right Hon. Baronet for his efforts in support of Toleration, and his successful carrying through of the Dissenter's Chapels' Bill. Our informant also states that the toast was well received.— Ten Towns' Messenger.

STATE OF THE HOSIERY AND _ . LACE TRADES. The condition of the wrought cotton hose branch is much as previously reported. The cut-up branch is also very dull, and the drawer branch is much th e same . The silk branch is in a languishing state. The bobbin net trade is dull, but we do not hear of those h ea vy complaints we did some time since. Great exertions are making on all sides to improve the manufacture as respects patterns, but not as regards the texture of the net, in the levers machines, the other three princi ples of the circular bolt, the tranverse warp, and the pusher, in general making traversed nets. The latter principle, we had hoped, would have been ere this in full activity, but it appears the heavy cost of applying the jacquard, and the delicate construction of the ma chinery, have prevented the owners from extending the manufacture. A new, and, as we hope, important ma nufacture, is produced from . the travers e war p ma chine, at Beeston, f 6 r which Messrs. Nichols, of Gold smith-street, London, have a patent. The article in general use, is made from the weaver's loom, an d is termed braiding, of which there are about 500 weavers employed in England, and about a third of that number in France. The French have the monopoly of a similar manufacture at Tarrare, near Lyons, with this exception, that the French fabric is made all plain, the English invented article is part plain and part open work. That made on the traverse warp machine is part lace and part plain or linen work. The singularity of this production is' that the linen work, though made iii 0 0 I 145 V 0 79 9 • 100 0 0 20 9 3 50 0 0 19 5 8 100 8 0 100 0 0 78 9 0 67 10 0 105 0 0 110 0 0 100 o o Stock Stock Li 7 9 0 Stock 50 - 0 0 5800 8328 50 0 • 180 0 0 70 10 9 500 0 2510 100 0 0 100 0 0 50 e 0 250 0 0 5000 100 e I 100 0 0 50 9 0 1000 0 0 20 0 0 20 0 0 2000 Stock 100 0 0 25 0 9 25 • • 500 • 0 100 • 0 100 0 I 100 0 0 50 • 0 25 9 0 25 • • 20 9 C 59 9 0 50 • 0 20 0 0 100 9 0 5 0 0 Stock 100 0 0 100 0 0 20U 0 0 40 9 9 5.

West North Ceutral East 2lO 209 277 South Total MONEY MARKET and CITY NEWS FROM THE MORNING PAPERS OF THIS DAY. CITY, TIIIJESDAY EVENING. - . TIMES.—The English securities still continue flat, and the amount of business transacting is small. Consols lett off 99i to 100 money, and 100 to + for the next ac count. One cause assigned for the depreciation which this stock has lately undergone is the sale of it for re investment in the Three-and-a-Quarter per Cent. An nuities, which command considerable attention in con sequence of the higher rate of interest they bear, and their security against reduction for at least the next ten years. These circumstances, while on the one hand operating against Consols, give on the other increased firmness to the Three•and-a-Quarter per Cent. An nuitit.s. The following notice has been published to-day by the Directors of the Bank of England:— " The Governor and Company of the Bank of Eng land are ready for the present time, and until further notice, to receive applications for advances on the secu rity of bills of exchange not having more than six months to run, Exchequer-bills, East India Bonds, and other approved securities. Such loans to bear interest at the rate of 24 per cent. per annum, and to be repaid at periods to be fixed at the times of advance; but such re payment not to be later than the 1 ith of April next, and the loans to be for not less than 2,0001. each." This is a further exposition of the policy intended to be pursued by the Directors, and a more complete de parture than by any act they have yet done from their former character of regulators of the currency. The notice is intended to be received, no doubt—though it is not so expressly stated—as a termination of the regular quarterly notices for giving aid to the money -market during the shutting of the different stocks for the divi dends. Henceforth, what is declared in this notice is to be received by the public as the uniform practice of the Bank, subject only to such variations as the fluctuations in the value of money may render expedient, and which may then become the subject of a similar notice. It may be safely stated, however, that the Directors are not sorry to have a decent pretext for getting rid of this arrangement, which always formed a species of anomaly in money matters, being, in effect, only doing by public notice that which they were understood to be at all times ready to do for parties whose credit rendered them competent for such accommodation. The notice is satisfactory, perhaps, in another point of view, as in dicating a still further separation of the Bank of Eng land from the Government. A dividend, at the rate of 6 per cent. per annum, was declared at the meeting of the Shareholders of the London Joint-Stock Bank held to-day. The report was highly favourable, the net balance divisable being 16,3051 les. Id. The guarantee fund now stands at 90,856/. Ss. Connected with the present mania for railways a great alteration has taken place in the aspect of the iron trade, and such is expected to be the demand, not only for home, but also for foreign and colonial, consumption, that prices are gradually advancing, and the principal ironmasters are sanguine as to the future. Nearly all the makers are said to be full of orders, and further con tracts are taken with much caution. _ SUN.—English Securities leave off a shade better than in the morning, though with no decided improvement. Consols have been 991 to par ; Bank Stock was lower, 2 l oi; New Three-and-a-Quarter per Cents. obtained 1032 to 104 ; and the Three per Cents. 1001 to 1.

"My dear Sir,—l have j u st h a d the honour of re ceiving from his Excellency the Lord-Lieutenant an im portant communication, of which I beg to inclose a copy, in the hope that you will have the goodness to give it a place in your next publication. " I have the honour to be, my dear Sir, " Very faithfully yours, " F. W. Conway, Esq." " D. MURRAY. .(Copo.) " Vice-regal Lodge, Jan. 15, 1845. " Lord Heytesbury presents his complikients to Arch bishop Murray, and begs to inform him that he has been instructed to give to him and to Archbishop Crolly the strongest assurances, on the part of the Government, that there has never existed the slightest intention of entering into any negotiation with the Papal See upon the subject of a concordat." THE BEQUESTS ACT—THE ROMAN CATHOLIC CLERGY. The Roman Catholic clergy of the diocese of Dublin held their annual conference yesterday. We have learned that no petition was brought forward respecting the repeal of the penal clauses in the Relief Bill against the regular clergy, nor was there any document sub mitted at the conference on the subject of the Charitable Bequests Acts, probably because differences of opinion prevailed regarding that measure. But, after the conference, a considerable number of the clergy held a separate meeting. at which a petition to Parliament was unanimously adopted, urging the total repeal of the Charitable Bequ. ats Act, and the substi tution of Mr. O'Connell's Bill in its stead ; also praying that the clauses in the Emancipation Act affecting the regular clergy might be expunged. The petition was signed by upwards of fifty of the clergy of Archbishop Murray's diocese, including most of the parish priests of the city of Dublin. The petition is to be signed throughout the diocese. ARCHBISHOP MURRAY—LAY DECLARATION. A declaration of the laity of the diocese of Dublin, similar to that of a portion of the clergy, addressed to Archbishop Murray, is in the course of signature. RESCRIPT FROM ROME. The Pilot of this evening contains the following letter 'rom Dr. Cantwell, Roman Catholic Bishop of Meath, ;o Mr. O'Connell : " Illustrious and beloved Liberator,—Your powerful and unanswerable expose of the anti-Catholic provisions of the insidious Bequests Act, published in the Pilot of Friday evening, increases immeasurably your claim to the confidence and gratitude of the Catholics of Ireland. Never did you pen a more useful or more necessary document. Among the many blessings which it cannot fail to accomplish, I indulge the strongest hope that it will determine those venerated prelates who, from the purest motives, accepted the commission, promptly to resign an office which connects them with the enemies of our faith in carrying into effect a law obviously levelled at the independence of that Church which triumphed over persecutions the most atrocious, and of which those very prelates have been the steady pillars and brightest ornaments. The virtues, the talents, and the abundant fruits of their zeal in the cause of religion, entitled those prelates to the respectful consideration of their countrymen: no prelates in the church of God were more justly endeared to their respective flocks ; none possessed in a higher degree the confidence and the affections of their brethren in the episcopacy. Would to_ God they may promptly adopt that course which, I am firmly persuaded, can alone secure the continuance of those great blessings! The resignation of an office, the ac _ _ Ceptance of which already — produced fruits of bitterness which every friend to religion must deeply deplore, can alone restore public confidence, heal the dissensions which have arisen among the clergy and laity, and re establish that unity of feeling and action among the pre lates which rendered the persecuted Church of Ireland the terror of the enemies of our holy faith, and the pride and admiration of the Catholic world. " On the public documents, having reference to the Catholic prelates, and to some of which you more than once alluded, I deem it right to offer a few remarks. The letter of his Eminence Cardinal Fransoni, addressed to his Grace the Primate, and published in the Evening Post of Saturday, was received at our last meeting with the sentiments so fully expressed in the resolution which was unanimously adopted. That all the prelates con curred in the resolution is quite certain ; that there existed a very material difference of opinion on the inter preted .n of the letter is equally undeniable. Some Bit hops (they were only few in number) understood the letter as implying a prohibition to take any part in a public meeting, or to be present at a public dinner. The other prelates felt that they would not carry out the wishes of the Holy See by adopting or acting on any such interpretation. The prelates who interpreted the document in the latter sense, and, I think, they consti tute the majority, ground their interpretation on the terms expressly used in the communication itself. They are—" nimium adicti...minus prudenter..." Even these were applied only hypothetically—" Si relata subsiste rent...si ita esset," &c. " The Cardinal evidently censures only violent and in temperate language in either priest or bishop, whether they address their flocks in the temples, or mix with their fellow-countrymen in banquets or public meetings. We inferred, and I think we were justified in the infer ence, that conduct and language at all times unbecoming our sacred characters, and not our presence on such le gitimate occasions, were the objects of this wise and salutary caution. We conceive that our duty of loyalty to our beloved Sovereign, priestly decorum, and a due regard to the best interests of religion, are not incom patible with the clergy taking a moderate and prudent part in meetings convened for the purpose of promoting the temporal and spiritual welfare of their flocks, or being present at banquets intended to mark the nation's gratitude to her best religious and civil benefactor. We conceive that by our presence on such occasions, and exhibiting in our persons the practice of that prudence and moderation so earnestly recommended, we will most effectually prevent the evils otherwise justly to be appre hended; while a becoming sympathy with their flocks, under the overwhelming load or sufferings and grievances which oppress them, is calculated to win their confidence, to secure a willing observance of that patient forbear ance which it is the duty of their ministry to inculcate, and thereby promote the peace of the country and the salvation of those committed to their pastoral superin tendence. God forbid we should ever mingle in such scenes influenced by the unworthy motive of ministering to public discontent, or of seeking to obtain a vain and fleeting popularity. "In the present state of Ireland, with her people naked, houseless, and starving in the midst of plenty— where the very profession of Catholicity is an apology to justify exclusicn from public offices of emolument, however humble, or from private employment, however laborious—where the laws are administered by men re markable for their hatred of the Catholic religion —were the Catholic clergy in such circumstances to withdraw the consolations of their sympathy, and to refuse co operating constitutionally in seeking a redress of suc h grievances, a suspicion of their integrity, a want of re spect and affection, and a total loss of influence, would be the deplorable but inevitable consequences. It is painful even for a moment to imagine the results, alike fatal to religion and the public tranquillity, which would soon follow. In the year 1839, when British calumny and misrepresentation extorted from the Propaganda the document referred to, I heard the ever-beloved Gregory bear rapturous testimony to the zeal of the Irish clergy, and to the religious fidelity of the Irish people. He will never recommend or sanction a course which would lead to a calamity so disastrous. A Pontiff' more attached to the Irish Church never sat in the chair of St. Peter. " The next document on which some reliance has been placed by the advocates of the Bequests Act, is the me morial of the bishops in 1840. I was a party to that memorial, but it was not the act of the episcopal body. It was never formally submitted to the meeting—it never received the formai approval of the assembled prelates ; and hence it was never inserted in the registry of our proceedings, The object of the memorial was to direct the attention of the Government, through Lord Morpeth, to the wicked enactment which disgraced the Statute book, and was forwarded at a period when public opinion had not acquired sufficient influence to secure the fa vourable decisions which have lately been obtained in our courts of justice. Besides, we then relied that in any measure submitted to Parliament on the subject, Ireland would not be deprived of the Parliamentary influence of her talented and ever faithful representative. ‘Ve con fided in your knowledge - of the faith and discipline of the Catholic Church, and felt convinced of your persevering and uncompromising opposition to any and every attempt to undermine the one, or to encroach upon the other. We certainly never dreamt of asking or giving our sanc tion to the present measure, on which we were never con sulted, and which was hurried through Parliament at the close of the last session. " The other document which has been paraded in the newspapers, to which you have more than once adverted, and to which the advocates of the Bill refer with a sort of triumph—l mean the resolution adopted at the late meeting of the prelates—is the last which I shall notice. It is exhibited as expressing the unanimous voice of the Irish bishops, and is boasted of as an interpretative ap proval of the acceptance of the office of Commissioner by any prelate who might chance to be the object of Castle favour, and whose propensities did not recoil from the unenviable dis , inction. _ The resolution did not meet the approval of all the bishops, neither could it convey to any one of the Episcopal Commissioners the most distant notion that in accepting the office he did not oppose the views and wishes of many of his episcopal brethren. When the resolution was moved there were six of the protesting bishops absent, and a moment was not allowed to pass after it was seconded when it was denounced in the strongest manner by two of the bishops present. They solemnly declared before the assembled prelates, that in the event of any prelate ac cepting the odious office, they would never willingly hold any communication with him in his capacity of Com missioner. The prelates were urged to this declaration from the conviction that the exercise of their functions as Commissioners implied the invasion of canonical tights which it is unlawful fur a bishop to cede, and which, it is to be hoped, no Catholic prelate will be found to usurp, In the hope of putting an end to what promised to be a warm and lengthened discussion, the following explanation was charitably suggested. It is illy pleasing duty to announce this; all the prelates favourable to the Act (including those who have since accepted office) promptly expressed their full and cordial co ncu rrenee, The explanation which is to be f oun d ap nopeoe et n d d ii e mn , ; pa l l yowt:hns t eyrnhulisuti,,n in the public records of o ur pro effect :---‘ That the resol u ti on di d approval of the Act, or directly or in directly restrict, in the slightest degree,any prelate from resorting t 9 WiialitUti oll l4 and canonical 0 in' means in his power to prevent its being brought 14 operation.' Such was the condition u nder which, t° avoid the appearance of disagreement, the resolutioni was permitted to pass. Why has it been withheld it The insinuations and affected triumph of some su m ge !t the idea that its suppression was not en tirely accid ents : " Would to God that the pre l a tes in their deli beration' on this important question, involving the dearest ir to rests of our religion and our country, had been leit ue the guidance of the Holy Spirit, and relieved from t° obtrusive intermeddlings of one whose readiness to rr o commend himself to the favour of anti-Catholic men I , power, by assisting to enslave the Church of which he" " a professing member, is no longer a subject of doubt the Catholics of Ireland. The Church would not n° ol have to mourn over our dissensions. The blow sia' 4 by her artful and designing enemies would never bili s reached the intended victim. Her pastors would noS.,,i struck down, nor the strength of her childnen would and scattered. No ! The bishops, clergy, and P e P os would be united. The Irish Church would still connti,he an impregnable fortress, despising the assaults of enemy—the consolation of every Irish Catholic, dl3 exhibiting a spectacle commanding the reaPect to admiration of the Catholic world.—l have the bonourde remain, illustrious and beloved Liberator, your ever voted and most faithful servant,Et " Daniel O'Connell, Esq., M.P., &c."
