It is an incontrovertible Constitutional Maxim,. THAT THE THRONE, THE PARLIAMENT, AND THE GOVERNMENT OF COUNTRY, AttE FUNDAMENTALLY PROTESTANT." To this principle, errading every part of 'Government in, the State 'as well as in the Church, wild operating upon all the Sects and Separatists, its well as upon our excellent Eccle siastical Establishment, the ruling and religious principle of a Roman Catholic is directly hostile; and we are firmly persuaded,. that no Oaths or Engagements which have been proposed or, suggested, will afford a securityagaiast the operatien of that silent, but powerful influence, whicli oil be always attendant upon the Opinions and principles of 119 man Catholics when in possession of Legislative and hie Political Power, and which cannot fait to a Most (lett!. rioratiug effect upon a Government essentially Protestan 5. That so far from the concession of, legislative and high political power being calculated to allay irritation, and pro mote the security and strength of the Country, we ore par- , suaded that it will lead . to further demands on the part of the Roman Catholics, and to jealousy and discontent on the part of the Protestants. And, should the mensiirtrhe 'adopted, we aqicipate, from the temper and state of parties in ! this Country, those bitter controversies in Religion and . those feuds in Politics which unhappily prevailed anterior to the Revolution of 1688, and which may lead . to censrii uences the most fatal to the peace and prosperity of this Empire.

Elec tion Politics •may sometimes be traced as much IQ personal antipathies as to public sentiment. But ►n the present instance, the opposition' proceeds entirely upon public grounds, and if not actually► engendered by the late County Meeting, it owes ,the nurture ivhieli has given it consistency and strength to the inflammatory speeches and violent resolutiOds, as well as to • the manner in which that meeting is said to have been hatched and prodttred. Mr. EDMOND Worn (itisr, the nephew of Lord Si'Ormertonsa, has declared himself the Candidate on the loyal side, in opposition to E. R. PRATT, Esq. who offers `on Mr. Coma's interest. Mr. PRATT is a relation by marriage to.the late Mem ber, and, there is nothing very invidious in sup- Parsing, both frail) . his 'habits and from the case itself, that 'he merely steps in to uphold :Mr. Comes nomination'of the second Candidate, till the present Sir J . AsTLEst, ivhi.) is now in his twentieth year, be of an age to succeed his father. lt'svas most unlikely that any contest would [lave taken place on a vacancy thus occasioned, mad it not been for the proceedings relating to he County Meeting, which have been not only of a nature to arouse the feelings of the Friends of Order, but also to disgust many of the former Partizans of 'Constitutional Opposition and of the particular interest. It Was commonly said in Norfolk, that Gentlemen who had been. accits towed to be consulted, and who' hail usually tent powerful aid on intim occasions, had no other no tice of the requisition than that afforded them by the Newspapers, It was broadly stated, on the inthority of these very gentlemen, that Certain persons who bad sigmaatures delegated to their discretion, met at the house of a Nobleman in town, where these offensive proceedings were originat l ed by a few leading names only, and passed to others. Such wls the tone of the conversation'in Norfolk a few weeks since, and we believe time result has been as unexpected by the movers of the. Meeting as unforeseen by the Freeholders. 2'o hazard such an encounter at this . moment argues neither common views nor common pains. Mr. Epsrots•D Wonettoose is distinguished by a singular degree at. respect. To all the well•known ancient honour of his house, he adds - as much iregayd and esteem as can well attach to. personal .character. There is the surest warrant circu-n -stances can give, that he is influenced by no Other motive than the desire of affording time county an opportunity ofliindicating its principles, and its independence front sinking under the dictation of one man ; ,and these circumstances also manifest, that his friends would be guilty, :not.only of the highest injustice to himself, but of betraying the rights and interests they stand forward to assert, if they had not the strongest possible assurance of succeeding. Mr. Coks'i personal influence is as great as - his political influence is small. It is indeed immense, and is most powerfully seconded by his own wealth and standing in the county, and by the wealth of other landed leviathans (" tl a air hath bubbles as the water bath") among the. Whigs of Norfolk. Time contest, therefore, can but be very severe; and to make 'any positive assertion with respect to the event would savour more of unadvised rashness than of any knowledge of tile county divisions. Thus much, however, we may affirm, that nothing but the strongest assurances of success, founded upon a thorough acquaintance with the opinions of great local in terests, and more especially upOn those pnblic principles which will ever• be the distinction of honoarable minds, whether they be taunt! hi the East or in the West, co►►ld ilaVe induced Air. WODEHOUSE to plunge into a contest at such a vast expense of mind and money, in the face of a second btruggle, which it is now universally anti. ciliated may take place in the course of things, After a few months.
