CJets. Re-payment, the Wool Duties, the AW-te of Bread, and
several private Bills. The Commissioners were, the Lord Chan.

jarlseliaion, which was read a first time.
EXCISE OATHS BILL.
The Earl of LIVERPOOL moved the second reading of the
Excise Oaths Bill.
The Earl of CARNARVON °horned, that the present Bill
cent:teal the two mint material points of his Noble Friend (brad
Lensdown's) measure, viz that respecting the Earl Marshal, a re.
gu:azion with regard to whose office nn objection had been made,
.111.1 :lie oaths of Magistrates. He could assure the House that Ca.,
tl,oii,•s, in many parts of the country, acted as Magistrates, and
availed themselvel of the Annual Indemnity Act to be screened
iron, punishment. Ilia Noble Friend's Bill had been lost by a
great notjority, but now that a part of it was made a Government
measure, not a voice was heard against it. Ile regretted that
fore
Bill had not passed as the Noble Marquis had introduced, it
was desirelcle that Magistrates should be all protected by the
same law ; as it was, however, the present measure should have

his support.
The Fart of LIVERPOOL saw no reason for the Noble Earl's
ol.iserrations, as they were all agreed on the measure. He had '
voted for the Noble Rlarquis's Bill, but others might conscien-
tiously object to it ; and it all could not be obtained, it was desir-
under any eircumstar.ces, that this measure should be carried.
—1:14 Bill was then read a second time.

Bill for continuing the operation of the Insurrection Act in Ireland
tor another year.
I.oed CLIFDEN objected to the measure, and said that the con-
sequences of it woubi be mitchievous in the extreme. He trusted
that their Lordships, in another Session, would seriously take the
caw of Ireland into their consideration.
The Earl of LI3IERICK supported the measure. He °blurred,
that the man of substance in Ireland would consider themselves
abandoned if it did not pass.
The Bill, after a very few words from the Earl of Kt ware ox,
was then read a second time.

CATHOLIC CLERGY.
Mr. M. FITZGERALD presented a petition from Mr. Janie'
Devereus, one of the live Deputies from the Catholics of Irehod
to his late Majesty in 1793, with the Catholic petition, on which the
concessions then made were founded, and front Mr. Eneas
Al`llonell, a gentleman of considerable eminence and talent, pray-
ing for a envision for the Catholic Priesthood aid places of wor-
ship. The petition was as follows:—
• To the Right Honourable and Honourable, the Knights CI-,
cams and Burgesses of the United Kingdom of Great
Britain and Ireland, in Parliament assembled,
" The humble petition of James Edward Devereux and Ennis
Mardonell, two of his Majesty's Irish Catholic subjects;
•` Most humbly sheweth—
" Thst your petitioners have been informed of an application'
beir.g made to Pailiament for providing ph.ces of worship fur cas
min classes of his Majesty's subjects.
• Ttott a very large prophrtioo of the Catholic population of
Deland is destitute of convenient places of public worship, and also
of the means of providing them, at the same time that the want
thereof is grievously felt and lamented by. them.
'• That one of your petitioners having, in the month of October
lost past, mad: particular inquiry into the state of the Catholic
.trchnishopric of Timm, did thereupon arnertain (as appears by the
stiehtmeot hitherto annexed) that of one hundred and tea congrega-
tions, only fair have comniudious places of worship; sixteen have
unfinished slated chapels, sixty-six have wretched thatched cabins,
which they use as chapels, and there us twenty-four of those con-
gregations without any place of worship whatever, and which are
necessarily compelled to assemble on the Lord's:day in the open
subject to all the vicissitudes oi weather.
" That the whole of this Archbishoprick is perfectly free from
insurrection or disturbance.
" That such want of places of public worship prevails particu-
larly io the southern and weateva districts el Ireland, and is taunt
projudicial to the public weal and repose, as limiting the diffu-
sion of mural instruction among the pension', at the saute time
that it keeps alive recollections in reference to the catis^s there-
of, which it must be the dente of Government to obliterate.
" That it is a fact, gratefully attested by the most esteemed
British historians in ancient and modern times, as Venerable
Bade, William of Malnis!sury, Cambden, hoed Dyttleton, Arch-
hedoz Nicholson ; and also by Irish Protestants, Primate Usher,
and Du. James Ware; and that the inhabitants of Great Britain
are indebted to the Irish nation in a principal degree for their
eviliistion and conversion to Christianity ; and that some British
Pricers, and great numbers of the people, were not only hospitably
Tee...tired and entertained, sod gratuitously educated, mil provident
wit`i books an Ireland,—but that after their conversion hal been
effected, the Irish Catholics founded churches and colleges, and
provided pa-tors and other religious and literary instruction for
them in different parts of Great Britain.
• Yo.ir petitioners are unwilling to dwell upon the return which
'relied hat hitherto received fur such contributions to the civilise-
u of Great Britain, but must humbly submit that it is not un-
reasonable to suggest that some consideration should even now, for
.ne first titre, be given to the claims which such benefits and set,
te:ces raturally create.
•• That a moderate provision for the erection of sonic places of
public worship for his Al ajraty's Catholic subjects in Ireland would
soe be Inconsistent with the most scrupulous regard for the main-
resavue of th.: Established Church 4 and your petitioners humbly
wsbenit that they do not propose to obtain a pester exercise of lihe-
:Any tostards the Catholic subjects of his Majesty, than is ex-
tended to the Provident subjects of some 'admit,- States.
" In proof “td illustration thereof, your petitioners humbly re'.•

jesty , Louis nlllll., ,and the aid siva lay ti e Catty lie Govern-
