of the United Kibgdom. Nobody
suggested in the debate that any English institu-
tion was protected by this oath, bat it was
assumed that the Irish Church Establishment
would be endangered by its repeal. A great many
persons, both in Ireland and in England, are
strongly of opinion that the existence of that
Establishment is a wrong done to the Irish people,
and that, inasmuch as it is a cause of natural
irritation, and an obstruction to the complete
union of the two countries, it is also injurious
to the English people. In the exercise of their
acknowledged rights some of these persons have
associated themselves for the purpose of spreading
this opinion, and impressing others, both by
speaking and writing, with its truth. It might
be thought that the friends of the Irish Establish-
ment, themselves profoundly convinced of the
claims of that institution upon the respect and sup-
port of the State, would be satisfied to defend
it by sound information and powerful argument.
But, no ; the mere possibility that the public
may see too clearly the mischievous effects of
maintaining an alien Church in the midst of the
population of Ireland sets these gentlemen upon eon-
sidering how public opinion maybe neutralized. And
it is here that the value of the oath becomes con-
spicuous. The oath restrains some thirty members
from becoming the faithful representatives of their
constituents. "See," says Sir Know CAIIOOI,
"here is the proof : the oath actually shuts their
" mouths when the Irish Church is discussed. Is
" not that evidence of its worth?" Surely it is
• great achievement to have nullified thirty
members in an assembly of six hundred ; •
great merit to have forbidden the expression of
opinion to the representatives of electors whom
you invited to vote. The problem was, and
is, how to maintain an institution independ-
ently of the opinion of the public, and this is
the precious expedient. Mr. HOWIMAN expressed
the common sense of the matter when he said that
" the Church established was a creation of the law ;
" the law was a child of opinion, and as opinion
" changed the law must change." And it is
simply as an apparent moans of avoiding this ne-
cessity that the Roman Catholic oath is prized by
its defenders.

if in committee on the bill the th was modified in
bad stated, that mould be accepted by
the way
I Mr. lionsell ; if so, he would vote for going into
committee.
Mr. HOUSMAN said that this proposition was
nothing less than an attempt to reenact penalties
which it had been the course of legislative policy of
late years to remove. This question was one affecting
protestants as well as Roman catholies. As to this
oath being a settlement ands compact, why every act
of parliament was a settlement in that sense ; while
the compact was an arrangement enforced by a
strong upon a weak party ; and as an act might
be amended, so such a compact might be revised.
The Catholic Emancipation Act was intended to
place members of this house on an equality, while
this oath created a distinction between' one class
and all alms, implying, as it did, that the religion
of the Roman catholic members was inconsistent
with allegiance and the preservation of the esta-
blished church. But no oath was administered to
dissenters, who were notoriously banded together
to destroy the church, and who acted as legis-
'atom in promoting that object. The oath
could be no security for the church, for when
the Roman catholic' became powerful enough
to subvert the church, they would before that have
been powerful enough to repeal the oath. In spite
of the spirit of religion, justice, and charity welch
had admitted the dissenter, the Roman catholic,
and the Jew to parliament, it was now proposed to
retain an oath which was a badge of intolerance. i
He confessed that he, as a protestant, would be
glad to be relieved from taking the oath denying
the Pope's spiritual jurisdiction in this country,
which west be taken in a spirit of casuistry. He
contended that unnecessary and unintelligible oaths
were immoral, and still more must be criminatory
oaths ; and he was in favour of a uniform oath,
which wail one of allegiance only which might be
taken without distinction of creed.
Sir H. Calera denied that this was the time to
discuss the question of a uniform oath for members
of parliament. He avowed that the parts of the
oath which denied the doctrine of deposing mo-
narchs, and which were directed against mental re-
servation were useless, while they were offensive
tothoae Who were required to take them; but he con-
tended that the section which contained an abjura-
tion of any intention to subvert or weaken the
church and the protestant religion was necessary,
and he refused to concede any alteration in that
respect. He argued also that the existence of this
oath had operated as a preventive to many Roman
catholic" joining in any attacks on the established
church.
Lord E. HOWARD, referring to an allusion in the
speech of Sir H. Cairns, explained that it was not
belief that the Roman catholic oath conscientiously
prevented him and his brother, the late Duke of
Norfolk, from voting in matters relating to the es-
tablished church, but they abstained from doing so
on a question of taste.
Mr. 3lossun declined to accept the proposition
made to him to retain that part of the existing oath
relating to the established church.
After a few words from Sir P. Bottum.,
On a division the amendment was rejected by
193 to 126.
The house went into committee pro forma, and
the resumption of
,the committee was fixed for the
evening.
At the evening sitting, Mr. MONSILL fixed the
Roman Catholic Oath Bill for Thursday evening,
when arrangements will be made for bringing it on
in committee.
On the motion for adjournment to Thursday,
Mr. WARNIN referring to certain arrangements
of the Governor of the Cape of Good Hope for
introducing Kaffirs into British territory, a policy
opposed to the opinion of the colonial represen-
tative aasemblies, which it was thought would lead
to hostilities, inquired what the understanding
was between the home government and colonies
possessing representative institutions as to the de-
fence of those colonies in any future war.
Mr. Canowrin said that, actiug under instruc-
tions from home, the governor of the Cape had
adopted a policy calculated to conciliate the Hears,
and so to diminish the chances of hostilities.
In answer to Mr. S. Larsvas,
Lord Pauli:mos said that communications bad
been going on between her Majesty's government
and that of the United States on the subject of the
depredations of the Alabama for some time, and
the most recent were of the same tone and tenor as
those which had preceded them ; the communica-
tion which bad been made was since the accession
of PresidentJohnsoo, but he was not aware whether
it had emanated from that gentleman.
Colonel FRENCH objected to the adjournment,
when an Irish bill stood for discussion to-morrow
(this day).
The motion was agreed to.
Mr. Morrarr again called attention to the report
of the select committee on the Bankruptcy Act of
1861, and the existing state of the laws iu regard
to debtor and creditor, and moved that the report
deserves the prompt and serious consideration of
her Majesty's government.
Mr. AYSTON made a few observations in second-
ing the motion.
Mr. Baas suggested that a bill on this subject
might be brought in at once, which might be con-
sidered during the recess.
The Arroaxicr-Gasirstax stated that her Ma-
jesty's government would take into their early con-
sideration the report of the committee ' • and
concurred in an opinion which had been expressed
that no mere patching amendment, but a thorough
reconstruction of the law should take place.
The motion was agreed to.
Mr. NIATE called attention to some defects in the
law relating to lunatics, both as respects the admi-
nistration of the law and the provisions of the law
itself.
The house was counted out while the hon.
„ I gentleman was speaking.
Or

Ix is unfortunate that the House of Commons
and the country have been deprived of the speech
which Mr. Disa&Ext had prepared to deliver on the
Roman Catholic Oaths Bill ; but the question has
nevertheless been vell discussed. The speeches
of Sir Joux ELLINGTON and Sir Blum CAIRNS
placed the objections to Mr. MONSKLI2B Bill on
intelligible grounds of policy, and it may be pre-
. sumed expressed the sense of theirparty ; while that
of Mr. Holantex, luminous and statesmanlike,
was an assertion of the right and duty of Parlia-
ment to bring the legislation of the country into
conformity with the larger views of civil and reli-
gions liberty which are the fruit of the progress
of a generation.
- - -

We are glad to acknowledge that this debate
marks a certain advance on the part of the Con-
servative opposition. Neither Sir JOHN PAHUTO-
ION nor Sir 'luau C.Liaws insisted on retaining
those parts of the Catholic oath which assume
that they of whom they are required axe devoid
of all moral principle, that it is uncertain whether
they do not approve of murder, or that in swear-
ing they will not palter with words. The members
for Droitwich and Belfast were even ready to abolish
that notoriously false declaration in the oath, that
the • POPE has no spiritual jurisdiction in this
realm. Bat both prcclaiined their hostility to the
repeal of that portion of the oath by which the
person taking it disclaims, disowns, and abjures
any intention to subvert the present Church
Establishment as settled by law in this

For the case of the Irish Fatahlfeltinenta High-
Churchman might plausibly allege that although the
dboossissent and the House of Lords had treated
the favourable opinion of Convocation upon this
Bill as saperfluous, Ministers bad nevertheless
sought to elicit it ; that in point of fret the Bill
was not introduced until the opinion of Convocation
had been declared; and that it is probable that but
for the readiness of the clergy to adapt their
canons to the desired parliamentary legislation,
the Bill might never have been brought in. But
the omission to consult one branch of the United
Church precludes this view of the matter. The
superfluousness of the opinion of Convocation is
affirmed in a mast practical way when the
opinion of two provinces out of four is not only
unsought but denied opportunity of expression.
There is, indeed, one alternative which was sug-
gested in the debate from the Episcopal Bench, but
we are not sure that it is one which the clergy
would be eager to accept. It may be said that
the Irish Establishment is in a condition so ano-
malous that it would be dangerous to give pro-
minent acknowledgment to the title of its Convo-
cations to participate in the legislation of the
United Church ; that its technical rights command
no moral respect, and that the wisest course is to
ignore its ollsims until the time comes to cast it off
entirely. To a choice of one or other of these
conclusions we are absolutely confined by the
course taken by the Government with the sanction
of the House of Lords.

AT length the House of Commons has been per-
mitted to hear the truth about the peremptory de-
mand said to have been preferred by President
Joumox for an immediate settlement of the claims
of the United States on account of the injury done
to its citizens by the Alabama and her consorts.
Lord PALYEIISTON'S answer was, indeed, as obscure
as the question put to him was direct ; but, ob-
scure as it was, it could not quite prevent the
truth from breaking through. If any important
change has taken place in consequence of Mr.
Lzttrottes death, if the succession of Mr. Jolts-
sow has brought with it • change of American
policy, the PRIM= is not aware of the fact,
for he does not know whether the last " comma-
" nications " made to our Government came
from Mr. Joussozr or Mr. Lutuout—s sign of
the importance to be attached to them. Perhaps
they came from neither, but were merely the
" formal " fulfilment by the American Minister in
the routine of his office of the duties imposed on
him by general instructions of long standing. Be
this as it may, Lord PALMELITON speaks of them as
of no urgent importance. Itiaadmittedthatthe com-
municationswhichhave been received are of the same
spirit and tenor as Mr. SawAan's despatch to Mr.
ADAMS in the year 1863, which has been so often
quoted, and the friendly character of which is well
known. The plain question put by Mr. W. E.
Foisrm, after Lord Ramiarrox had spoken,
we. met in the most straightforward
manner by Mr. LAYARD, who was, of
course, more intimately acquainted with the
details of the business of the Foreign Office than
the PRIMIZa. Mr. 'ALM said :—" The case
"is very simple. The original demand is that
" contained in papers which were laid on the
" House last year, or at the end of the previous
" session. When any other case has arisen,
" whether solitary or otherwise, of vessels captured
" by the Alabama, or other ships of that nature,
" Mr. ADAMS, in putting forward any claim in
" that particular case, has reiterated the original
" claim almost in the same tenor and spirit, for
" the depredations committed by such vessels. A
" short time ago, before the death of President
" ',mews, that demand was incidentally renewed
" 4,2 the identical words, and with the same
di

Ws have heard much within the last fortnight
of the rapid rise of Convocation in importance, and
speakers and writers who hold what are called
" strong " ecoleaisstioal views have been in un-
usually high spirits. We are told that the con-
stitutional place and dignity of the representative
body of the clergy have been practically recog-
nised as they have not been for generations, and
that its functions have been called into vigour for
purposes of great public consequence. Convocation
has been required to co-operate with Parliament
in legislation affecting the interests of the Church.
This is what we find in speeches delivered in the
Jerusalem Chamber and in the articles of the
ecclesiastical prsiss. The Clerical Subscription
Bill is the measure which Convocation is supposed
to have assisted in passing. This Bill is generally
—we believe we may say universally—admitted
to be one of real utility, reducing as it does the
extravagant and impossible terms in which for
two hun'red years the clergy have declared their
assent to the formularies of the Church, within the
limits of that fair and reasonable acquiescence
which is all that ought to be asked in favour of
any human work. The credit of originating
the measure belongs, however, not to Convocation,
nor to the bishops, nor to any exclusively clerical
body, but to a Royal Commission, specially norni-
Detect for that purpose by the Minister of the day.
It wasupon the recommendations of that Commis-
sion that Ministers prepared the Bill which is now
passing by rapid stages through the House of Lords.
Convocation has discussed the changes which the
Bill is designed to introduce, and has been so for-
tunate as to find them good. What would have
happened had Convocation disapproved of the
Bill we cannot even conjecture. Still, inasmuch
as the Bill sets aside and supersedes canons of the
English branch of the Church, it is well
that tho Convocations of its two pro-
vinces are able to accept it. But the pretension
to co-operate with Parliament in altering the law
of the Church, is one which was peremptorily set
aside as soon as the Bill found its way into the
House of Lords. Lord Grarvizzz, in introducing
the measure, referred to the approval of Convoca-
tion, but he summarily denied the title of that
body to concur in a legislative act which was to
bind the clergy, and was even careful to explain
that that approval itself was wholly unnecessary and
superfluous. Of course, no minister of the Crown
would have spoken or desired to speak thus of a
body which really and truly represented the Church
of England, or even its clergy; but it is one cons.-
queues of the highly-prized connexion of Church
and State, that the only body which even in form
and appearance represents the Church is in a posi-
tion to be thus referred to, while the prerogative of
legislation on the most important interests of the
Church belongs exclusively to assemblies into
which unbelievers of every type pass umbel-
lenged.
As if, however, to bind the clergy themselves to
this depreciatory view of their assent and approbs,
tion, the Government have resolved to take a course
which effectually excludes their pretension to
co operate in this business by dispensing with
even the approval of the Convocation of
one branch of the Church. The new Bill will
soon become the law of the United Church et
England and lrelandi• But the Irish Convocation
has not been asked, or even permitted, to express
an opinion on the subject. The Archbishop of
DUBLIN, who brought this fact under the notice of
the Lords on Monday, with that impressive solemnity
of manner which characterises all his public ad-
drama, declared that to pass this Bill without
consulting the Convocation of the Irish Church
would be to put a slight on that Church, to wound
it, to set a mark upon it of inferiority to the
Church of England, and to excite in its members
a sense of deep and serious wrong. Lord Gear-
vuzz assured him that the Government had no
intention of casting a slight on the Church of Ire-
land-4 declaration which it was very easy for a
Minister to make who regarded the approval of
the bill by the English Convocations as super-
fluous. Another Irish prelate, the Bishop of
Kluitoz, protested with great spirit against
Lord Gifaxvizzz's views of the importance
of the "Synods and Councils" of the Church.
The Convocations of Canterbury and York bad
very properly been allowed to alter their Canoes
to meet the new legislation of Parliament, and
why not permit those of Dublin sod Armagh to do
the same ? " Greater folly could not be permitted
" than to turn the Church into a mere branch of
" the Civil Service, and then expect it to answer
" any political end whatsoever"—a pregnant and
portentous utterance, worthy, no doubt, to be
remembered and admired, but not to be too rudely
analysed.. However, the House was not ioduoei
to suspend legislation until the Irish clergy had
been consulted in Convocation, and the Bill went
through committee.

meaning."
This is in exact agreement with whst we
have already stated. if a notification of losses
caused by the Alabama or any other vessels of
her clam, based as they all were on the original
claim made by the Government of the United
States, and accompanied by a reiteration of th►t
claim, constitutes the "formal demand" which
has been so much spoken of, then "formal de-
" m►nds" have been made without interruption
for the last two years. If those notifications
are not to be so considered, then, after
Mr. LAYARD'S explanation, the statement
that a formal demand has lately been
made falls to the ground. In any case, nothing
has happened to justify the assertion that the suc-
cesses of the Union armies or the death of Mr.
LuccoLN and the succession of Mr. Jonzison have
been followed by a change in the policy of the
United States. The public) must have had enough
of this controversy, but the misstatements that
have been mane were so mischievous that it was
impossible not to notice and expose their false-
hood. And if we are not mistaken, the public
will distinguish between those who, for partisan
purpose., and regardless of consequences, have
striven to mislead it, and those who have main-
tained the truth in the face of the most unscru-
pulous inventions.
