FROM THE SELECT. CofsIMITTE‘ Or THE HOUSE OF COMMONS, RESPECTING ,THE RLIGIBILITY Of' PERSONS IN HOLY ORDERS TO SIT IN THE HOUSE. The Selea ComMittee appointed to examine the Journals of this House,' and Records.Of Parliament, for Precer dents reSpeeling the Ellgihiliiy . of Persons in Holy Ordors to sit in this House : and to Report - thd same • to the House;-=have proceeded in 'the examination direCted by the House ; and have agreed upon the fol iowing'Report:- • In prosecuting the Inquiry direaed by the House, your Committee have thought it right to direct. a search to be made into all the . Returns to Writs ......I#Aue4 for the Eledion of Members to serve in Par ,.,; t,. from the earliest period in Which they are z0nt,,,7 to the present time ; with a view of ism rom the additions to the names in such :~ . -Returns,= whether any ,of the Clergy were. therein They find; from the result of this search, tbat in the early periods; previous ,to the Bth'Hen. IV. when the w-aaiee of returning Citizens and . Burgesses by Indentures annexed to the 'Writ, first prevailed, the names are generally returned without any addition whatever, 'except 'in the, instance of •. , tnights, and the general addition to each Return of "Citiiens and Burgesses." Your Committee find, towever,. that in five instances, during that period, ioarticularly specifiett.under the Third Head in the :following part of this Report,. ,the addition of 4Clericus" appears tothe names' therein econtAintd. 'Mat trom . the Bth Hen.

Your.

They have not thought it necessary to add.to their Report, any 'Statnte printed by Authority wl*h.Might appear connected with this subjen ; but finding that an A& of the r6th Car. I. which was repealed ; by an Ad of the 13th Car. 11. is not so printed, - thi7y have subjoined a copy of it from the original Roll, together with the proceedings in rigliament whiCh may' be necessary to explain the Objet- of it. .. .The result of the whole,they have arranged under the following Heads:— • . . - j.--Summons of the Clergy to Parliament—par_ -ticalar instances of the mode of exercising their funetions there—their priVileges consequent to such .fttiendance. IL—Taxation of the Clergy. lII.—All such instances as could furnish any pre. gumption, of individuals in. Holy Orders having been returned 4‘. Member, of the Mouse of Coin. ,irons. Under this.head, however, your Committee ...think it right to • remark, that though they . have , inserted the Case of Sir Thomas Haxey, Clerk, as having given rise to different opinions among writers upon this subjea, they find, upon an examination timetted-by•thern into the Returns, still perfect 'and 'octant in the Tower ? :of the zoth year of Ric. 11. that' no such name occurs amongst them—and that, as - to thename . of Chri4opher.Parkins,, returned as Dean of Carlisle; in the . 39th and 434 Eliz.•4 ap., tears by a Patent 'in 'the Rolls Chapel of the ,38th Viz. that the said Deinery was ,granted to him . with the following express dispensation :77- . . it( And in, regard that the Queen•had 4timiityis tiro' into he r _ 'atnily, and been ' accustomed to em ploy- him ,i n ,weighty concerns i she dispensed with his not . t)eing'in any sacred or other Orders ~ and alsci-graritill i .
