referanos to the acts of the Pope, so say in that what they
wield do within Moir own 'bomb would he irrelnant.
(Hear, hear.)
The Rsv. LICHFIELD spoke of the advaatage of
unanimity in the protest. In unity minsisted the strength of
the Murat, and he trusted nothing would be done to &stalls
it in regard to nopmed protest.
Mr. COX would, if his amendment to the protest were
negatived, propose it m an addition to the address.
The Rev. Mr. FREEMAN TLE observed that the obleci-
Von to the protest was, that it did not go far enough. They
took their stand on the principles of the reformed church
against those of uto Rotaish church—if some declaration to
that elm wer• Introduced, it would ge far to secure
unanimity.
The BISHOP observed, In 'rawer to one clam of objeo-
tors, that the protest called a them to do no more than
they had ll pledged
which
vas to do when they subenibed
to the 19th Article, which declared the church of Rome was
an erroneous sad a corrupt church, bat it acknowledged
that it was a church. Lad with regard to the protest not
taking the ground of the Reformat.on, his reverend friend
who had made that objection forgot that the words "cor-
rupt doctrines and practices of the church of Rome" were in
the protest. He could not allow that there was any status
la the protest other than that of the Reformation, and upon
which, he thought, they might all fairly milts. (Rear.)
• Ray. Oannianan suggested that the word "Mole.
emus " should be keened is reference to the oharch of

The BISHOP proposed that the word " idolatrous "
should refer to the practice of the church of Rime; which
was agreed to, and the alteration made.
The protest itself was then put by the Bishop, and de-
clared to be carried. fourteen kends only being hell up
against it.
It was then moved by the Roy. AUSTIN LEE, and
agreed to:
That the Lord Bishop be requested to order that the
protest se signed be preserved moonset the public documents
of the diocese, is the registry thereof, and to forward a eopy
of thetas, to the bishop of every see in recognised comma-
aims with the &meth of Oxford.

The 80,. Vanonan THOMAS then moved, and the Rev.
H. Kara m= seconded the address to the Oaten ; the
amendment suggested by the Rev. H. Cox having been
incorporated.
The Rev. F. FRENCH, of Reading, proposed another
amendment, praying her Majesty to direct that the
titles of archbishops and bishops should be withdrawn from
all ecclesiastics of the Romish church in all pats of her
Mejesty's dominions. This was also agreed to and the reeo-
lotion pulsed, as was another requesting the Lord B.shop to
lay the same before her Majesty.
A proposal for passing a resolution of thanks to the Bishop
was mooted, but was stopped by
The BISHOP, who said that it was he who bad to thank
his reversed brethren for their attendance, and in dismissing
them he prayed to keep the church in unity of spirit, the
heads of pease, and is purity of faith.
The apostolic blessing was then given, after which the
meeting broke up.

ST. JAMES, WESTMINSTER.
Twat evening a large and most respectably attended
meeting of the rate payers of the parish of Bt. James,
was held at Williearoome, pursuant to • requisition,
numerously signed, to the ehurchw•rdeae, for the purpose of
considering the propriety of addressing Lord John Rowell
upon the recent aggressions of the papacy. Mr. WlLLtau
Ginnie, senior churchwarden, took the chair shortly after
six o'cloez.

The CHAIRMAN slid he bail considered it his duty to
call the meeting on receiving the requisition, in order togive
the parishioners an opportunity of expressing their opinions.
He would say only a few words respecting the extraordinary
proceedings of the Pope of Rune. While he and his fellow
protestants had dons all they could to soma to their ROllllll2
catholic fellow sahjects liberty in religious matters they had
aver intended to sawed* to Rome any ecclesiastical Jur°.
diction whatsoever in this country. (Hear, hear.) Could it
then be wondered at that protestants in almost every pat of
England had called meetings to express their opinions con-
cerning the Pope appointing bishops to the principal districts
of the kingdom ? Nut having time to consider all the details
of the subject so attentively se he could wish, he had thought
it hie duty to attend Dr. Coasting's lecture, at the Hanover-
goats Rooms, on the day before, so that he might have
lb* whole question before him, and his previous opieions had
been confirmed by Dr. Cumming's powerful address; for
that rev. gentleman had shown, by rekrence to the auttiori
ties of Roman oatholies themselves, their own aeons and
writers, and by the forms of their oaths, what was the
true setae of the present movement, and he must say
that the very form of the oath to be taken by
Cardinal Wiseman, and by the bishops to he appointed, did
prove to his mind that, whatever had been already tolerated,
it was the duty of all protestants to nicks a stand now
11/liIIII this aggression. (Clan 1 He had many friends
who wets Roman catholia, and did not deny that they were
good citizens and good' fathers; but Dr. Cummiag's disclo-
sures were of so powerful a east, that he must confess him-
eels now a thorough protestant to the bakbooe. (Cheers)
The chairmen then read some of the salient points of Dr.
Cumatiag's lectures, expressing his entire concurrence with
them; and concluded by argleg upon churchmen and dis-
senters to anite in keeping the religion of Christ pure and
holy, as it was found in the Holy Scriptures.
Mr. FULLER read the nismorial proposed to be ad-
dremed to Lord John Resell. He trusted that no
petty questions would be mooted, but that they would all
agree in it, as the language had been carefully framed, leo
as to embrace all who were protestants. (Hear, hear.)
The memorial was then read. Ia substance it expressed 1
the indignation of the normoraliste at the assumption of
aatbority by the Pope is this country, which they regarded
as an formica of the rights of the crown, the principles of
the constitution, and the liberties of the people ; and they
, implored the inister to vindicate the prerogative, and
prevent the Pope Irons assuming powers inconsistent with
• the protestant faith. They also requested the adoption of
• measures to remedy disunion among the members of the
established church.
r Mr. OLLIVIER seconded the memorial, which, he
I thought, contained ncthing to which all could not agree.
, He strongly reproba•ed the daring assumption by the Pope
I in this protestant country of supremacy over their souls. It
r was certain Englishmen would not submit to this, and allow
• Isla to call them heretios and infidels because he chose to

claim role and supremacy over all baptised persons. (Loud
sheen.) Toe teachlog of Home was against all civil and
religious liberty: it contained the abominable doovine of
auricular et:interacts, to which not only the Pope and the
Cerdinal, but Lord John of Northampton—(h~ hear)
told the people they mast oome in otadience.
(Loud cheers.) Then thus was the doctrine of penaire
sad the still more abominable doctrine et transubstantiation,
which had carried moss souls to perdition than any other.
He regretted to see so meek supineness on the part of
the government in asserting the rights of Englishmen, and
he weld not help Wales there was some political intrigue
at work, by which those rights were to be sacrificed to the
obaniaable doctrine of szpodieney. The people had •
right to demand that sonsetkiag be immediately done to put
• stop to these arrogant claims assumed by the Pope. He
was at a loos to eadustand why he who had fled the other
day from his own country in the disguise of • servant should
come hare to almost the only peaceable spot in Europe,
to at class against alma and all the people at
loggerheads. Mach of the evil, however,lwe had brought upon
ourselves, for there prevailed • want of sympathy with
Chrbtiaeity and with the progresalve movement of our own
church, and he trusted this 0030/ioa would not pus without
a protest against the abominable eyeless of promoting men to
the highest digaidas of this church for political motives.
There was set • man on the beach of bishops whose politics
were not indicated by the date of his appointment to his
diocese. (Hear, hear.) It was a shame there should be
hardworking clergymen on 1001. • year or lees while these
prelates monopolised the revenues of the chink and did
nothing. Why wee this ? Bemuse laymen did not do their
