The DiikeOf NORF O LK, adViettitik to a Petition Which he had recently presented Against the Dui wieh College Bill, from certain per Sons interested in that Institution, stated that there was matter in the Petition irrelevant to the business before the Hone ; he therefore moved their Lordships' to al low him to withdraw it, -in - miler that another might be preSented, free from the objectionable passages. Lord HOLLAND would certainly not object to the withdrawing of a Petition, which in "the opi nion of many persenS'ought never to have been received. It purported to lie a Petition from per sons interested in Dulwich College. Now the only interest these persons had, was, that their name was Allen, of which Dante; according to the will of the founder, must be the Master and War den of the College. They. were, therefore, not more interested in Dulwich College than were tiny other persons in any other College to which they were eligible. Nothing could be more objec tionable than the allegations of the Petition, which tended in the fir-1 place to asperse the pre sent Warden, than whom a more worthy and ho nourable individual did not exist, and in the se cond place to, do no less than accuse the Legisla ture of subornation or perjury. The Duke of NORFOLK professed:himself, until Thursday last, wholly ignorant of the Bill or of the Petition. He had been - requested to present the Petition, and nnw, for the reasons which he had already stated, he had been requested to with draw that petition, and. to present another.' Leave was_t4;:..n given to withdraw the Petition ; when the Duke of Norfolk presented another, which was ordered tir-pie on the table.—Ad jaunted. II . - ;'SE C;;' C:O:,V,ION.

It proposed nothing- less than to repeat at one sweeli every Bill which the House-had passed for the last bundled tzars respecting the settlement of the poor. . The House divided—, .

EARL OF J3UtKINGIIANISI-IlitE'S LETTER Mr, CREVVEY moved fOr a copy - of Eetter from the Earl (if Buckinghamshire, .President: of the Board of Control, to the Chairman of the East India Company, dated in Janttary last, in which he recommended the renewal of several Pensions which had expired with the Charter ;. and also the grant o f a sum 'of 20,0001.- for the payment of the late Lord Melville's dehts. This letter Mr. Creevey considere:l as a direct violation of the letter and spirit of the last Act respecting the Company's Charter. The motion was very ably opposed by Mr. WAL LACE and Mr. T. COURTZNEY, who contended that Lord BUckinghamshire's Letter was private, not written as President of the Board of Controul, nor by the authority of the Board, and therefore the production of it could not he called for. After a short contersation between Sir MARK WooD, Mr. SULLiVAN, and Mr. WHITBREAD, the Motion was rejected, on a. division, by 62 t 0•23. CHILD STEALING. Mr. W. SMITH observed. that • the crime of Child Stealing .was not at present punishable by• law, though the stealing of the chill's -clothes was so ; which, though a small offence, : might be punished severely.. It appeared a blot on our legislation, that a child might be stolen without punishment. He understood . the Judges .felt it their duty to inform Juries, that if the intention was only the stealing .of the, child, and .not of the clothes, they must acquit. In the commis sion of this crime, the child was certainly_ some times stolen only. for its clothes, and tl,en it •was not carried away farther from .home than suited the robber's purpose. This, however, merited some punishment. • A respectable professional. man -in Westminster, same tine back, lost a child, which was left .without its clothes under an arch of Westminster-bridge, in snowy weather ;. at. the floxing of the tide it crawled. up the steps, and laid holdof .a person, to whom it could but, just make itself imderstood. The robbery %vas proved, sentence passed, bit the.robber pardoned. Another motive for the crimewas seen in the case of the little hoy•Dellow, .stolen to be : brought up by otherS but could this compensate for the agony of, mind occasioned to parents ? Could the argument used foi the Slave-trade, that the child was placed in a better condition, avail ? A third motive in this offence was to sell the stolen child,' sometimes as instruments in the hands of common be gars, to work on the compassion of ,ndividuats ; thus. Consigning them to wretchedness arid vice : st• other times they were sold to be devoted to the most disagreeable, employments.; such as chilli- - ney-sweeping, &c. He expected in his motion all support, and rio opposition, as he had heard . of no intention to object. Five years ago, a similar Bill passed that House, an a l, by some accident, was mislaid in the Lords in the last stage; He then moved for. leave to bring in a Bill foe better preventing the crime of Child Stealing. Mr. Serjeant ONSLOW *mild not second the mo don silently. Juries bad often acquitted offende r s,. while they lamented that the law compelletl them at other times their feelings had led them to vio., Ia terM law.

One Material paper had not' beeii printed at sill. 'The Whole were important to the two_great points, of . the interference of the Crown i n th e nomination of Bishops, and the sap(rvision of rescripts from the Papal See ; alSo to a point of perhaps a graver nature, the Society of:the Je suits. A. doubt had, beenstarted as to their exist ence ;Amalie could state. to the Hormse, that cently 30,000 t. had beeusent to Ireland, out of „which the estate of Castle .BroWne had been por chased for 16,01)01. to endow , a school, with a.. Jesuit : at its head, for Roman Catholic education. A person well known in the republic .of letters,. Alm% Plowdemi, ,had written larglely in. its praise, defending it onalme,ground of similar establish ments in Russia .and Naples.- The subject was important. Mr. P. treating ,of the tenets of Je;., shits, differed from Paley and most others in the meaning of an oath ; assenting it to.be secundunt intentienem juraptis, anti not .secuOunt inteqtionent imponentis. He then read a letter froM Ireland, stating the proceedings at Castle Browne ; but the writer was unable to disco ;er the ultimate ob jects, .as the Jesuits were not remarkable for pre mature disclosures : yet lie expressed his fears - of the consequences of .the 'action of such a close. system on the fanaticism of the ROman Catholic inhabitants. Sir: 3. C. H. then adverted to the holding of Synods of Catholic Prelates, as had been lately done, and which he thought contrary to laaY, and dangerOus, from their interfence with subjects under Parliamehtary, consideration. By Doidin Papers of the last three, or four days, it 'appeared that the second order of time Clergy was' expected to oppose the recent letter from Rome and likewise a part of the Bishops. The Prelates, d es ee'lbed their meeting on February 26, )810, as b e i ng ho t ; et Dublin ithtlme.loth year of the Po ntificate of theirem;y. ~..P_ather, Pius VI. He, h.opeil the Irish Government .N't-e::•e alive to the conse quences of such proceedingS; ns well as to those of the Catholic Board impublin, which had prOposi ed-tosend to the Cortes of Spain, to say, that they were oppressed by this Government, thenamcting iu conjunction with that of Spain, whichhad ennobled and rewarded allobleDake,ourcornmander,bmitwho might thus'be Kehl up as, an enemy to the Spanish religion ! They would appeal to the most intole rant.nation in Europe; which might be seen from the new code, which suffered none but Catholics, and even compelled the Members of the Cortes to be sworn to it annually ! Would the Irish Catho lics.appeal to Spain on a queition of their rightS and privileges ? Another effort had been made in the . Catholic Board, which was rendered ineffec tual by the refusal of the Clergy. It was to Make the Clergy exact donations, per head, from all Roman Catholic householders, setting a minimum on each . gmtbsciiption, and marking each refusal by the words " refusing tempence." The mnea sures, very lately pursued were quite opposed to what he conceived the .opinions of the body a few years back. The same individual (Dr. Mil ner, we believe) who procured from Rome the abandonment of all rcliiestsfor temporais, did, the next year, solicit the same for the Apostolic Vi cars in England. He atso wished his (SirJ.C.H.'s) assistance in this. object, because he had procured . sonne relief for the suffering Roman Catholic' clesiastics in Scotland. The papers he alluded to would sheet/ the general regulations of the Church; which were admitted at ROME!, and which might be compared with the recent letter from ti:ence. He cold(' not avoid remarking the extraordinarY state of "things in Dublin, in consequence of the receipt of the rescript, and .the differences bd tween the Prelates and the second order of -Ecele siastics. Unless Oovernment watched closely the proceedings of a Board affecting and exercis ing such powers as the Catholic Board, and adopt ed some wise measures, he much feared very se rious consequences. He concluded by moving, for thd printing of Extracts (paragraphs 42 and 43) from time Instructions sent, under the sign manual, to Sir G. Prevost, GOvernor of Canada, on the '2.2d of October, 1811, and which were'presented to the House in July, 1813. BA'THURST seconded, the. motion. 'Sir H. PARNELL said, that as to the 30,0001. be was empowered to state that, the whole object was contained in a printed prospectui which he had seen. It was Merely to establish a iclio6l for Young clergymen and others, to whiCh per Sons of a (lit ferent religion might be admitted, with ou t inter fering 'in their faith. Nothing ,bad been said to chew that farther objects were contemplated. ,At this time of day it seemed ahsurcrto suppose far ther objects in view. The Jesuits were now ex tremely few in numbers. The procteding appear ed to him wholly justifiable and legal, and con tained nothing to merit imputations. • Mr. PEELE said, that the notice which the Hon. Baronet had given having been for the prOdu-c -tion of certain parts of the instructions to Sir George Prevost, be certainly was not led to ex 'pest the introductiOn of such topics as ehose to which the Ilon, :Bat-inlet had called the attention of the - I-louse. llc nierely,ros,e, lest it might be i n i ng ined, it be continued 'entirely silent, that the Irish GOvernMent had not paid the most serious attention to those subjects on which' the Hon. Baronet had particularly dWelt. Uit one pOint he thought it necessary to make.a few observations, because the*Hon. Baronet had alluded to itin the last Session. In consequence ,of what the Hon. Baronet had stated, on the - subject of a College for tht preservation of the Society of Jesuits be. ing established in Ireland,, he had solicited a communication with Mr. Kenny, the head of that Seminary. He had accordingly seen that Gentleman ; and be stated to him, that reports had gone abroad, much exaggerated, per haps, as to the nature of the' Institution over which he :presided i observing, that it woLild t' •,, •• , 1 be good - (whieb ;3.kini!t0,:,,,, tci e3;pl3in .precisely the objiier of his Institt.:- ticiti. • Freirlt hint he l'eai'lietl; tinti it 1. 4 , , as tart ligioit's; but a fay balith: , prospiicti!s . of the bdurSe of ttliteakii3d: assed him . , whether it Was Confined t.t.: clusivelyitoljerSoris prOreskiii . g the fl(U;'tan whethei. it ttiasit Mr. Kenny atisWred; that the COL leg,,e Of ilaYnOoth, which do .; eitdu§ively recognized es a ObserVed, that hit; inStitntiOn was Cot;f:ncil to :Rnimin Catholics: lle; ivould snit the childi•en of.

Sir H.'l.);ulNELt. explained, that Mr. K.'s 're fusal to state the sources - of the find arose fromi • his conception that the Secretary was not well entitled to ask the question, add catechise hiiii nil the subject, as he was not acting against law, • and ought not to be suspected.- He had answered willingly the other questions.

He also informed Mt'.

Mr. PELLE observed, that then the order at an end. Sir J. CORE HIPPISLEY read part of the instruc tions to Canadn, and shoved that they were sup pressed as a body, and all their rightS and -pro perty vested in the Crown, till the Royal pleasure should be declared; the existing Jesuits being al !Owed to remain. The lands confiscated 'were granted to LordAmiterst,who afterwards commuted them for a sum.' All other nations acted towards them, after the .bull,. as Great Britain had done.— After the abolition of the order by Pope Ganganelli, orders Were written to Ireland to pay over ail pro perty remaining to certain ecclesiastical persons; 'part was left with the Jesuits till they expired. A question had been raiser, whether Jesuits had . been restored. Cardinal Borgia had denied that the late Pope had ever done so. Yet some said he 113(1 revived them 'by 'his circular viva veires The 30,0001. were avowed to be private property by a Man who had made a vow of p o v e rty ; t hi s was a serious subject to Government. These things continued 'must lead to something dangerous, the chief People'ot Ireland were indifferent to them: The present Pope was a man of excellent moral character; yet he must be devotedto his church ; and it was possible that, under particular advie, : , and looking to the Jesuits as the most potent in; strunient of Catholic influence, who Lad 'for*berly wormed themselves into the confessional of altuo,t nll Courts, he might be persuaded to grant his . 101 for the restoration of the Order: The paper was then ordered N) he printed, to gether with the reprinting of several others whk!) had been laid before the House iu last May and June.
