THE PERMANENT ENDOWMENT OF MAYNOOT.
BY GLADSTONE.
To the Editor tf the Obecrrer."

Sin,—The people of England ought to be made ac
quitinted with the fact that Mr. Gladstone deals with
Maynooth and the Regium DOMM—which are merely
voluntary annual gifts that Parliament could at any mo-
ment refuse to continue—more tenderly and scrupulously
than with the property of the Protestant Church, which
Parliament never gave, and which it can take away only
be an act of sonfiseetion. Out of the plundered propero
of the Ch reh the large sum of ewe one hundoni
thousand poonds in to be Riven to the recipients of these
grants ; of which sum t'..•6-1 4.011 is by tle bill to be
handed over to the trustees of lisynooth, for the peon..
nent endowment of that establishment. Thus while
Protestantism is to lie disestablished and plundered of
its property, Popery is to be in•rmanently endow( d out of
the plunder. mid that in the worst of all ways. The
Bishops and other Clergy «f the Protestant Church Ow
lift 7505" ars to be paid certain Annuities during
their life only, and after their death their successors ale
to receive noffarig. But not so with the Roman Catholic
Church. The present annual payment to Maynooth,
£26.000, is to be multiplied by fourteen, under the to.
tion that it is a sort of life annuity, and a lamp RIM of
1361,000 is to be pAid ,wrer to the trustees for the perni•i
nent endowment and msintroanie of their College Its
, introducing a clause of this nature into the Bill Mr.
, Gladstone h•i broken his pledge, and deceived those
, Protestant Dissenters who have foolishly put confidence
In him Do they still trust Lim? And what do Oil y
now think of tbe support they gave him
I am, Sir, yours truly,
