ROMAN CATHOLICS.
i 1116 Earl of SUFFOLK called to their Lordships'
resonation the notice he had given last Sessions of
se intended motion on his part, early in the present,
ivistive to the sable& of the Roman Catholics of
Isoleadt. His sentiments on this important suhjetl
Mlllelbell the same; but their Lordships well knew,
that, in the interval, a change of circumstances had
tales place, which naturally should have some in-
fante* CM his mind, as to the course of proceeding
he tbtsld take. He alluded principally to the ac-
pesioa to power of a Minister, who, to a certain de-
rv'. stood pledged with respca to the Irish Catho-
lics. This change, with reference to the measure
alluded to, would, he hoped, operate favourably for
this country, for Europe, and more especially for
Inked. As the thing stood at present, he wished,
as far as was praßicoble, to ascertain the intentions
of Government on :hat important point before he
'bold proceed farther, or to see what steps the Ex-
ecutive Government should take in the business.
Another consideration with him would be the result
of the deliberations on the part of the Roman Ca-
tholics in Ireland; and, should there be no petition
from that body. it was his intention to bring forward
a motion on the subjeß. His Lordship again ad-
re ted to what he seemed to consider as the pledge
sorer. by His MAjesty'a present first Minister to the
nawrian Catholics, and without which, he observed,
perhaps, that Minister's favourite projeCt of a union
could not be elk3uated.
MILITARY LEVIES.
Th: East of DARNLEY stated his intention to
move for an Aceoti, tof the number of men raised
soder the provisions of the AR of last Stssioro call-
ed the Aildidonol Force Ad. He deemed it import-
sot that Intel information should be given; and re-
quested to learn from the Noble Secretary, whether
be had any objection to the predation of such an
Account, as such answer would oeorroine him as to
the tirpe be should bring forward his Motion ?
Lord HAWKESIII:RY replied, that, as he had
so °Nation to the produßion of the account re-
quired, it must be a nootor of indifference to him,
when the Motion was made. The Noble Earl could
draw it up, and provese it immediately, if he thought
proper.
MR. MisTICE FoX.

The Marquis of ABERCORN formally pre-
sented a transcript of the Petition presented last
Session from Mr. Hart, of the County of London-
derry, in Ireland, complaining of certain parts of the
judicial conduct of Mr. Justie..
Also a Petition from certain Jurors and others of
the county of Fermanagh, in Ireland.
And a Petition from the then High Sheriff of
the county of Fermanagh. These %ere in sub-
stance similar to those presented by his Lordship
last Session, and were ordered to lie on the table.

The Noble Marquis then preiented his Articles
of Charge against Mr. Justice Fox, founded prin-
cipally on the allegations of the Petitions before
their Lordships. Respeaing these, his Lordship
Merely observed, that the Third Article of the
Charge contained matter in addition to that com-
prised in the articles of complaint which he pre-
sented last Session. The matter contained therein
was selverted to by him in his speech at the time,
theup he had not then sufficiently methodised it
tar regular introduElinn, and two if the Articles in
the former exhibition were not included in this, for
reasons assigned ; btu which, lions the tone and di.- •
retion of his Lordship's voice, we could not dis.
badly collect. His Lordship concluded by moving
that the House do resolve itself into a Caimmttee on
Thursclny next, to consider of the prryer mode of
pi irk eeding with respect to the Pettlio..s A:id l'Jpers
ni.w presented.
Atter putting the Question;
Toe LORI) Cl I ANCELI.OIt (pitted the wool-
sack, and observed, that on such an occasion as the
present it was important their Lordships should
know what it was they should have to take into cos
aeration on Thursday next ; it was merely, AS ex-
pressed by the Noble Martytis's motion, to consider
of the best mole of proceeding with respe& to the
petitions and peen; just laid upon the table, in re-
ference to parte( tbe conduit of one of His Majesty's
Judges in Irelaask The case, fortunately for the
countries, was a novel one ; since the Ail took
place, the provision► of which they were to keep in
contemplation, while considetisi the very import-
ant subjea before them. He alluded to the Aa tor
securing the independence of the Judges, and which
authorised the removal of any st them, in conse-
quence of an Address from Parliament. He was
glad that the Noble Marquis had changed the title
of the articles exhibited by him against the learned
Judge in question. Last Session they were styled
" Articles of Complaint." As it was questionable
with bins, whether such, proffered by an individual
Pear, was sufficient ground for that House's proceed-
ing in the way adverted to on former occasions;
as the case now stood, their Lord,h;ps would have
to consider whether any further proceedings should
be adopted in consequence of what appeared before
them; and if so, what line of proceeding such should
be. The Articles, as the case then precisely stood,
/were, he thought, to be regarded as certain aver-
. mtnts in the Speeches of the Noble Marquis, embo-
died and thrown into form. At present, the consider-
ation of the ease was not at all entered into : whether
that notice should be transmitted to the party ac-
cused, or, with reference to the final result of that

part of their Lordships' pleesedialp, the concur-
rence in an address to the Threes apes ibe subjea,
he held it proper, *at dolt Lordthips should be
fully aware of the satiate, dte step then taken, and
what properly should lie the =Ned of their deliber-
ations to the C,oninsittee on Thursday next.
The question was then put and carried, as was a
Motion for summoning their Lordships for Thursday
next.
The Karl of DARNLEY resumed the projett of
the levies under the Additional Force Aft. Ile
stated his wish for the same information with respell
to Ireland.
Lord HAWKESBUItY observed, the Noble
Earl might, if he thought proper, include both the
objeds in ape Motion.
The Earl of DARNLEY replied, that the case
with respet to Ireland was different. There it ope-
rated more in the nature of a tax, and in a propor-
tion, perhaps, different from what was authorised
by the Ael'of Union.
The Noble Earl then reduced his propositions as
above, to the shape of Motions. The questions
were put, and the accounts ordered to be produced
according l y.—Adjourned.

HOUSE OF 4.ILAISAIONS
The SPEAKER informed the House, that he
and the House had been to St. James's, to present
the Address of that House, in answer to His Majes-
ty's most gracious Speech from the Throne, to which
His Majesty had returned the following moat gra-
cious answer. He then read the answer.

Sir JOHN ANDERSON presented a Petition
from the Coal Fatlors of the city of London, pray-
ing to be indemnified for signing their initials in-
stead of their names at full-length, as required by
Alt of Parliament. _ _ _

Mr. JOHNSON, from the Secretary's Office for
Ireland, brought up a return of Officers employed
ir. certain Departments, pursuant to an order of the
House, made the 9th July last.
Lord MARSHA M stated to the House, that it was
his intention to fix on to-morrow se'nnight as the
day for taking into consideration the report on the
Middlesex Election.
The SPEAKER said, that in order for his Lord-
ship's Motion to be regularly introduced, the best
way would be to have the Resolution of the House
passed last session, read pp)
.brina, which was ac-
cordingly done; the substance of which was, " that
it being too late in that session, to proceed with the
business, it was resolved to take it up in an early
period of the present session." It was then, on his
Lordship's Motion, ordered, That the I louse will,
on to, morrow se'nnight, take the said report into
consideration.
MAIIRATTA WAR.
Mr. FRANCIS rose to make the motion for pa-
pers; of which he gave notice on Wednesday last,
told expressed his satisfaction that what he had to
sty would not take up much time, as he could not
see any reasonable ground of objection to produce
the papers he wished the House to be in possession
of. The case was shortly this: In the last Ses-
sion of Parliament, a variety of papers had been
moved for, and ordered, relative to the war then
carrying on against she Mahratta Chief. Scindea,
and the Rajah. Before the Session was over, the
House WAS informed, that that war was terminated ;
nevertheless, it appeared, that very soon after the
close of the last session, advices were received of
another war having commenced with the Mahratta
Chief, called Holkar ; and to this war it is, that the
papers now intended to be moved for relate.
war, he said, had already been attended with many
disagreeable circumstances, amongst which, he beg-
ged leave to mention one fait ; that, in a certain
part of India, called the Buldercund, which had
been ceded by the Peishwa, a whole party of Sepoys
and artillerymen had been surprised at their post,
and cut to pieces by Holkar's cavalry. As to the
Sepoys, it was true they m'ght be easily replaced ;
but, he could assure the House, that artillerymen
in India were valuable, and the loss a truly se-
rious one. He wished to have the whole report of
the present Mahratta war before the House, and, en
this ground, his Motion was founded. There was
another circumstance he wished to mention to the
House. In a province of India, called the Guzze-
rat, which lies to th• N.W. of Bombay, a certain
portion of territory had been ceded to the India
Company, by a Prince called Gwicowar, ohich, it
was generally understood, had been ceded for the
purpose of paying the expences attending the war.
Out of this fund. he said, it had been cycled, that
some payment would be made ; but, instead of pro-
ducing that advantage, he understood it had been
attended with great expence, and that the Bombay
Government had actually advanced 260,0001. on ac-
count of it. This appeared to him very extratirdi-
nary, and he thought it deserving the attention of
the House. I 1 then moved. " 'nut there be laid
before the /louse copies or extracts of all dis-
patches and correspondence between the Govern-
ment of India, and the Mantua Chief. Holkar ;
and also copies or extrafts of all letters, Inc. liom
such persons as have carried on a sceret corre-
spondence."
Lord CAS ILE R F.AG H assured t►e House he
had no obsidian to the produltion of the Papers
moved for; but he thought the Honourable Gentle.
man, in making the Motion, might as well have ab-
stained from alluding to circumstances which, in his
opinion, had no relation to the subject at this mo.
ment. With respell to what had been said of the
advance of the Government of Bombay, that was a
subject which would be fit matter of observation on
the next India Budget ; and, as to the surprise of the
post alluded to, it was only one single disastrous
circumstance in the course of / war, and ought not
to be mentioned by itself. To the Motion, how-
ever. be had no objection.
The Question was then put and agreed to.
Mr. HUSKI,SSON moved, that the I louse re-
solve into A Committee of Supply, to consider of a
supply to be granted to His Majesty, which was Ac-
cordingly done.
Mr. Wat.t.Aea in the Chair.
He then moved that a supply he grained to His
Majesty, which was agreed to, and the Report or-
dered to be brought up to-morrow.
Mr. HUSKISSON gave notice that lie would, on
Wednesday next, in the Committee of Supply, move
for an additional number of seamen for the servi-se
of the present year.—Adjourned.
