A T a numerous Meeting of the OWNERS of FISH-
iII IND VESSELS employed in the supplying the Metropolis
and its Environs, and of other Persons interested in the Established
Fisheries of the Kingdom, holden at the Office of Messrs. Saunders,
Heewood, and Matthews, in Upper Thamee.street, on Friday, the
23th Day of February, 1823,
JAMES EBENEZER SAUNDERS, Esq. in the Chair;
It was unanimously resolved—That the Petitions to Parliament
for tbe incorparation of Joint Stock Fish Companies contain Alle-
gations unauthorised by the past and present state of the Fisheries,
std bold forth prospects that can never be realised.
That the occasional Scarcity of particular Fish cannot be reme-
died whilst the Winds and 1% eather are beyond the control of Man,
and therefore a regular and uniform supply of Fish to the Metro-
polio can never be accomplished.
That with the exception of Salmon, and of an occasional scarcity
arising from the reason before mentioned, the London Market is
supplied with a superabundance of Fish, the average Price of
which (throughout the year) is less than seven Farthings per
pound ; and frequently the supply is so great as not to find even a
consumption.
That if the Legislature should incurporate the Petitioners, the.
Public will be greatly injured, and the established Fisheries de-
stroyed ; because such Corporate Bodies cannot remain permanent
itthee are to supply Fish at a lower rate than that which it now
yrirly averages : and by the inequality of competition during the
tcrice of their capital, the present responsible Fisheries will be
. • ;aced, and thus in a few years the Public will be deprived of
• ere part of the supply it now enjoys.
the proposed CoMpanies not being subject to the Bankrupt
1.5.,, and the individuals composing them seeking liability to the
amount of their respective Shares only, will, if authorised by Par.
lismeat, obtain an undue advantage over the Fair Trader, whose
exertions are induced by causes from which the Cowponies will be
exempt, viz--liability for his engagements to the extent of all his
property, and the loss of personal liberty if such property should be
found insufficient.
That the proposed Fi-di Companies, by the enormous Capital
they intend to create, will be enabled to Offer the Fishermen stick
high temporary Wages as will leave the present Establishments
comparatively deserted; and the thousands of Orphan Apprentices
to the Fisheries (taken in most cases from the Poor /louses to
which they severally belong) will be throws back as burthens on the
Public.
That for these reassns Petitions be presented to the Honorable
the (louse of Commune, anti such other measures taken for op-
posing the Incorporation of the proposed Companies as may be
deemed expedient.
That these Resolutions be inserted once in all the Daily News-
%pas, and three times in the principal /Horning and Evening
That
hat Messrs. Saunders, !Inwood, and Matthews be the Solici-
tors to carry these Resolutions into effect.
The Chairman having left the Chair,
It was resolved unanimously—That the Thanks of this
Meeting be given to J. E. Saunders, Esq. for his very able assis-
tance in furthering the objects of that Meeting, and for his conduct
is the Chair.

etc ROlllBll Ca-
tholics of the parish of St. Catherine's, in the city of Dublin. The
Noble Lord observed that the petitioners besought their Lordships,
and he joined in the prayer of their petition, that they would not
peas a law which most deprive a large portion of his Majesty's
subjects of their fisedoni, by passing a law to put down the Cs-
tholic Association—at least, without hearing what that Association
had to say in its defence. He was not now willing to enter into the
subjeet, but would do so on some future occasion, when the time
for doing so would be more rropet than the present; but he would
now intreat their Lordships to consider the consequences of the
measure.—The petition was then read.
The Earl of LIVERPOOL then moved that the Illegal Asso-
ciation Bill should be read a second time on Thursday next, and
that their Lordships be ordered to be summoned for that day.
The Earl of I)ARNLEY then presented a petition from the
county of Monaghan against the same Bill. The Noble Lend
observed, that although he advocated the prayer of the petition, it
did not necessarily follow that he advocated 'eery word and act of
the Catholic Association.—Lald on the table.
The Earl of CA lINARVON presented a petition on the same
subject from a parish in the county of Cork. The Noble Earl said.
he telt it his dory to draw the attention of the House to a substitu-
tion in the petition of the words " very respectfully" for " hum-
bly." lie did not know how this alteration occurred ; but be
could assure the House of his conviction that no slight was meant
to their Lordships.
Lord LIVERPOOL—Insert the word " humbly."

and Dean's Isibenias in the city of Dublin; rrom Killarney. in the
county Kerry; trout the parish of Cloghna.ma, in the Queen's
C-unty ; from Kilrush, in the county oi Clare; and from Tralee,
the principal town in the county of Kerry. The Noble 3larquis
then observed, that he held in his hand a petition which he had no
doubt came in the regular way, signed by 6,000 inhabitants ar the
city of Limerick ; but the seal had been placed over some important
words, and he feared the petition, on this account, could not b:
received.—The petitions were laid on the table.
Lord CLIFDEN presented a petition, which he said was signed
by a great number of Protestants as well as Catholics, praying
their Lordships not to tons the Bill for the Suppression of the Irish
Catholic Association. He felt assured that the Bill would have no
effect. It must be in the recollection of their Lordships that two
yens ago a Bill was passed to put down Orange Associations ; yet
those Orange Associations continued to flourish. He suspected
that the same fate would attend the present precious Bill. The
House had experience in the case of the Orange Arsociations,
which he believed had increased since the passing of a law against
them. Ile had read in the Warder (a Dublin newspaper) an ac-
count of a murder in the county of Cork, followed bl a proposition
to murder all the Catholics, men, women, and children, in that
country. He had heard it stated that a great proportion of the
Protestants of the three provinces, Leinster, Munster, and Con-
naught, wished that the measure of Catholic Emancipation might
be carried, and would be very glad if the House would grant it.
The petition he had to present was from the city of Kilkenny. The
Noble Lord presented similar petitions from the town and borough
of New Ron; from Mallow, in the county of Cork; from several
parishes in the county of Tipperary ; from the county and co-anty
than of Galway ; from the town and parish of Tuant ; from the
Roman Catholic inhabitants of Birmingham ; from Dingle, and
from Clones, in the county of Alonaghan.
The petitions were laid on the Table.
The BISHOP of BATH and %%'ELLS presented a petition
from the city of Bath in favour of the Bill against the Irish Illegal
Institutions, and praying that the House would not grant any
further concessions to the Roman Catholics.
Laid on the Table.
The same Noble and Reverend Prelate presented a similar peti.
tion from the Archdeacon and Clergy of the City of Bath.
Earl Frrzwi LLIA id spoke in so low a tore of voice es to be
scarcely audible below the bar. IVe understood his Lordship to
say, that he objected strongly to the nature and spirit of the peti-
tion presented by the Noble anti Reverend Lord. Ile complained
that the clergy had come before their Lordships to dictate to them
on a subject like the present. If clergymen of the Protestant
Church did so, why might not those of the Catholic do the same ?
Could the House oppose the Priests of the Catholic religion for of-
fering their advice ? and was there any thing to prevent the army or
the navy from coming forward in a like zunner ? In the petition
opinions are attributed to the Catholics which they do not avow,
and, in some CAWS, deny.—and things are there mentioned as facts
a hich he himself could disprove. fie would inform the House of
his opinion on die subject of the Bill: it was this—that the
House was proposing an unconstitutional measure, and was fiying
in the face of the Almighty in not fearing his vengeance for conunus
lag to keep in misery seven millions of our fellow-creatures.
The Bishop of BATH and WELLS said, that the Noble
Earl (Fitswilliam) had indulged in general observations, whin
it was quite impossible that he should answer. Had the Noble
Earl mentioned any pertienlar facut, there would have been..
opportunity for a reply. With respect to his observation "that'
such a petition should not come from the Cler,y°_if it mean
any thing, it would go the length of saying that no petition
should come from the clergy under any circumstances—that they
alone should be excluded tram the right of petitioning —a right
'• which confessedly belonged to all his Majesty's subjects. Ile
conceived it would only be a waste of time to point out ear
sons why the clergy possessed, ar.d should exercise the right
of petitioning. In conclusion, he would observe, that he knew
9f nothing objectionable Id the petition ; he did not think It
contained any thing contrary to the principles which a Pros
testant clergyman should hold; aild he should be glad to knew
that Its assertions were weighed before Noble Lords should
give their votes on Thursday night, upon the second reading of
the Bill.
Earl FITZW ILLIAM again roar—The Noble and Resting
Lord had charged him with hiving amide general objection,
whilst he avoided referring to specific farts. )lie Noble
here read several passages from the petition, and contended [last
the petitioners attributed meting of which they mild not be scar,
and appealed to facts which he knew to be untouraltd.
The Bishop of BATH and WELLS, in explatiatioo, ob-

,
served, that Chapters, with their tkwa. possessed end Chirrow"
the right of petitioning from time linmemorisl. Some et is
facts allotted to in the petition weft 'notorious. It nail well
known that the Catholics of Ireland denied that they. were
permitted the privilege of religious worshipohoogh it west equally
well known' that this privilege was eserased in the melltraligt.
strainwil manner.
' •tasrd IROILAND said, if the question was—whet/kr the
petition should be received or t.pt ?—to anxious wag be that Ow
miaow of all his Majesty's sa bikes should be heard, that kit
stokes abittid he given for receiving the petition, notwithetand:
ing the gross allegations it contained, and the spirit. still worse.
in which k was reamed. .'the petition contained the Mita
`• bumble," but he should leave it to their Lordships s de-
termine what degree of humility the petitioners manifested. He
believed the petition also contained the word "morallt e but
be was sorry is soy that there was little of the spirit of
charity about h. Ilia Noble Frivol (Earl Fuswillietne said,
that the palatine?s had imputed soothes to the Catholics. which
they could wet &neer- that the Catholics entertained,

The Noble sad Reverend Lord had challenged his . 'able
Friend to point out that to which he objected; and his obk
Friend complied by reading passages hom the petitiod, width
he could disprove. The Noble and Reverend Lord neglected to
reply to his NOW* Friend, though be h:.d risco thrice. The
petition said, that the 'Catholics now openly avowed the se-
pretuacy of the Pope: the contrary was the fact. The petitioners
might suspect that the Catholics achnowledged the supremacy of
the Pope, but it wee not like Christian pastors to charge them
with avowing it. To be sure they were Papists, but us:just
man, no Run of Chrietian feeling, trouhl have imputed that which
was not avowed. The petitioners say that this principle 'II
avowed—but where week/ the Noble and Reverend Lord.who
presented the petition tied the. proof of this allegation The
Catholics diaelatmod inch a principle—wsis it rot disclaimed in

tions, made without arty proof, would not Induce the Hemet to
visit with reorebetion siren millions of people.
The 'Rebut) of HEREFORD thought that flame imputations
of Uncharitableness cast upon the clergy were very unfounded. Ac
to the belief of Roman Cathal!es in iris Pope's eupremacy., they
were too wise to make such allegations in documests to be laid
before Parliament, beenuse such an aelinowledgmect might he
fatal to their purpose; but it was unhesitatingly avowed in many
of their publications. Numberless books were circulated in; eau
large diocese, in which the doctrine of the Pope's supremacy was
distinctly maintained. A Roman Catholic priest of great celeinity,
when writing on the Wiliam Church, observed, that he cooklinut
