After which-- -
Mr. Bbonur, the Secretary, again rose. He would now enter
on the business of the day. On the subject of their finances, he
was sorry to say they were not so flourishing as he might wish.
The Committee of Defence had circulated a great number of works
which had taken op a great deal of money, but it would only be
necessary to mention a few of them. There had been circulated
20,000 copies of 31r. Browolow's speech, the same of Colonel
Packenham's speech, also of Alb O'Connell's speech at Binning-
ra, and lastly of 31r. Butler's pamphlet on the Coronati•m Oath.
The total of receipts since the last annual meeting amounted, he
was sorry to say, only to the small sum of 2861. 19s. The free
glfteamounted to 1161. is 2d. He begged leave to make one re-
mark on this, without meaning offence to any individual, and that
was the disproportion betwea the free gifts and the subscription.
The poor people of London, with hardly a rag to their h4cks, had
given them 1161. Is. 2d., whilst the whole Catholic gentry of Eng-
kind had only subscribed 2861. 19s. (Cries of " Shame.") This
required a remedy, and he thought it might be rectified by the for_-
illation of two subscriptions, one for general purposes, and the
other to defray the expense of the circulation of tracts.
A Resoletion to that effect was then proposed in an eloquent
!Tench by the Hon. Mr. CLIFFORD. It was seconded by Dr.
COLLINS. and carried unanimously.
Mr. H. Quits moved a Resolution proposing to encourage the
formation of County Associations. He contended that had there
been County Associations in Yorkshire and Lincolnshire, a far
greater number of signatures to the petition would have been ob-
tained.
Mr. Wartime seconded it, and it was carried.
Dr. Cobbles moved the third Resolution, expressing the (mi-
nim of the meeting on the abeo/ate necessity of union among
themselves.
It was seconded by Mr. Ronson, who expressed his opinion of
elopement position of the Catholics being favourable to the attain.
Melt of their objects. The evidence that bad been given before the
thwandtteeof the BOOM of Lords formed a lasting monument In
ra:Nettiour. Noodles proof of the benefit arising from it need be
than the speech of Mr. Brownlow. The great body of
abinduats, nearly the whole of the junior members of the Univ.:r-
attle, and the English Bar, wire in their favour. (Applause.)
Tile Mat alone, as had been very truly observed by Mr. Scarlett,
wee perhaps the beet able to judge of the expediency of granting i
the Catholic claims, and they had expressed their decided opinion "
in its favour. On the whole, he thought they ought not to despair
ofet receiving the reward of their labours.
The Resolution was then read and carried.
Th• SECRETARY then read to the Meeting a letter from the
British and Foreign Unitarian Society, containing a Resolution
passed in one of their Meetings, expressive of their approbation of
4ps Catholic Claims, and which welgave at length •a our Paper of
Friday last. It was received with great applause, end a Resolution
smelasmediately proposed returning the thanks of the Association.
This Resolution was opposed by one person only. He was a
little man, seemingly tanned by a tropical sun. He had on a
shabby black coat, knee breeches, and coloured stockings, with
large buckles in his shoes ; a hat covered with grease completed his
.Staipment. His whole figure put us strongly In mind of little
Weddiagton. Ott this gentleman standing up to deliver his rea-
sons for Ids dissent to tbn Resolution, his appearance excited a
roast laughter, which was not at aU diminished by an accent
ZOIMEIDOW compounded of Scotch and Irish. He said he opposed
goitst,esolution bursts the Unitarians denied the dirriwily of Jesus
and were more in error than the Roman Catholics them-
mime, although the latter believed in purgewtory, where, if they
