ORDINATION OF CLERGYMEN.
Earl atTSlntice roes to prevent a Bill to their
Lordships, to enable the Archhi.hop of Canter.

tory nay be addressed fur this purpose, In hold
special orrinttione. It was liar lc necessary for I •
to %tate, that according to the law a. it at present
existed, the Archbishop. and Bishop. could soot
center ordination on any indivtdoel unless the candi-
date for ordination certified at the wine nine that
he had been or should be appointed to some cure
or beneli, e within his itocese. The object of this
regulation was to pr• vent the Clime!, from being
overstocked with Clergymen not hiving any pro-
vision. I was, however, now left to be necessary to
inaki• some alteraticiii 00 this plant, far the purpose
of providing a sufficient number of Clergymets to

belusignig .0 (feat where the increase

to WlOOO by gettersl caii...iit the spiritual power ova r
the Cillonirs seeinril to be cooceded. There, flow-
eret, wes one great objection to flue latter courier of
1001411101, because the Bishop •.i' 1, au, w con-
ferring ordswiti 11l on any individual, had no wea-
rily that when tile caudidate hid become a
clerrmati •he would persist in the neention
he had ori ly professed, and proceed to
the Cofontes to perform there the functions
of hi. sacred office. Tile object of the present Bill
was to provide against this contingeut danger, and
to enable the A medal-Imps of Centro bury and Yo. k,
aml the Bishop nf I, 00000 lon, or 'Myer Bishop to
whom bite)s mandatory may he sent for this pur.
pow, to ordain persons for the special service of the
Colonice, who should give sufficient to curtly that
on receiving orders he would proceed to the pro.
fes•rill place of his destination, A clause should
oleo be introduced into tlie Bill, disabling persona
so obtaining ordination from holding any benefice
or cure slant' the United Kingdom without rectiv-
log nerinission ('rum the Bishop of the diocese, and
the !bebop by whom hr hail been ordained. The
concurreut permission of both Bishops he thought
nt-ceesary —of the Bishop of the thoceee, because it
was fit that lie should be scooted against the whine-
sion of ally improper proems within diacese ; and
of the Bishop who ordained tints, Isecause it may not
be improbable that a candidate, intending himself for
the Coloniel semi..., might receive ordination, gi-
ll o eh not possess. it of till the qu ilifications winch
may be considered necessary for performing the as-
erril functions a ithite the United Kingdom. A se-
t I object of the Bill was to prat, et the church
from various intriisiosis to which at was at present
exposed. Their Lordships were probably aware,
that, accordisig to the opinions of the Church of
England, all Bishops deriving consecration by di-
reel litre from the See of Rome, had a power
of conferring ordination—by which means till Ro-
wan Catholic Clergymen resiounceeig the errors
of the Church of Rome. and embracing the doe.
trines of the Church of Englaud, Weenie ipso
I facto clergymen of the Church of England, and
were enabled to perform all the functions that
belonged to that character. Persons might thus
become tnenthers of the church to whom the heaths
of it had many causes to object, To remedy this
inconvenience, it was his intei.tion that all persons
so circumstanced should not be suffered to jet as
clergymen. without first obtaining the special per-
mission of the Bishop within whose diocese lie might
wish to officiate. He had iiideed once thought of
excluding all such persons absolutely from the
power of officiating, being unwilling that the out-
casts from the Church of Rome should he pieced
on an equality with the clergymen of the Church
of England ; but on further consuleratiou he too.
ceived such o provision would be inexpedient in this
country, and injurious in Ireland. as effectually shut-
ting the door ou the conversion of Vlore whoa feel.
songs of at If-lowest. or • conviction of the errors of
their fanner feet, might induce to enitir ice the Pro-
testant faith. Their Lordships carte also aware
that by an Act of the Legjaleture, the Archbishops
and Bishops of England and Ireland were autho-
rised to consecrate Bishops fur Quebec, Nova Sco-
tia, and Calcutta., without requiring certain quuliti.
cations which are necessary for coufereing conse-
csation on Bishops of the United Kingdom. Those
Bishops, therefore, had the power of conferring
ordination, and it was one of the objects of the
present Bill to prevent Clergymen, receiving Ordia
nation from the hands of those Melon's, from
cSating as such within the United Kingdom, utiles*
they shall have previously obtained permission front
the Qeshop of the diocese. There was but one
object more, which was to prevent the Bishops of
Quebec, of Nova Scotia. amid Of Calculi'', in the
event of an occasional residence in the U toted King-
Awn, from conferring ordination ou tiny individuals.
In case ordination was required, it Was more proper
that the candidates should require it at the hands
of the Archbishops and Bishops of England or Ire.
laud than from any others. The Noble Enl then
moved the first reading-of the Bill, m'aivh was read
accordingly.

The irjury arose from isicreasiog the qualitiry of
