PROTESTANT SOCIETY FOR THE
PROTECTION OF RELIGIOUS LIBERTY.
rp At the Tvrenty-seventh ,
Annual Meeting, held at the London
gwern, on May 11, 1839
1411 Royal Highness the DUKE OF SUSSEX in the Chair,
It Was anammously resolved,
i• That at the present moment, when Parliament may be
dissolved, and her Majesty had been required to form a
'taw Government to conduct public affairs, it is peculiarly pro-
per for this Annual Meeting to express their unabated attach-
ment to those great principles of Religious Freedom, which
their Society was established to promulgate, and has for thirty
Years laboured to maintain. That they consider, the rights of
!nnsoience as above human control—and all proffers of tolera-
'm, by monarchs or legislatures, as an objectionable and arro-
gant offence while they firmly believe Religion will best
prosper,
theHof State.
2. That this Meeting regard with retrospective pleasure the
great
and righteous improvements that have been achieved
Lilees the establishment cf this Society, in favour of Religious
berty and Constitutional Reform; and notice with special
.....lisgulintciaythat the Test and Corporation Acts have been repealed
Turnpike Tolls on Dissenters discontinued—Poor
!zd Church-rates on places of Worship abolished—Marriages
1 Dissenters rendered valid—Civil Registries of Births, Mar-
rlits?es. and Deaths usefully established—and the principles of
efigious Equality, in many practical matters, introduced and
e°nfirrne; an are encouraged by suc successful resuls to ma-
nifest the zeald and perseverance that are yet indispentsably re-
quired.
3. That while this Meetin avow their pinciples, an lc-
anowledge the beneficial progress they haver made, theird re-
gret is intense that those principles are not more clearly under-
stood and widely diffused; and that the sectarian and tyrannous
assumption of spiritual power, which in every age and country
Zas occasioned inquisitors and victims, martyrdoms and persecu-
fts•—is yet cherished and extolled ; and that even, through-
out the British empire,demonstrations of High-Church harshness
too frequently occur, and circumstances perpetually arise, which
elnand the existence and interposition of this Society, for the
Protection and defence of the injured and oppressed.
d& That observation and the experience of another year,
uring which an unparalleled number of applications have been
iB4 for advice and redress, confirm this Meeting in their
tt,led c""-riaiinadmeit that unabated and even augmented endeauours should

T: avert Colonial Persecution.
ensure an improved and National Christian Education, on
terms perfectly equal and just.
To frustrate new pecuniary Grants to the Established Church,
TO Chaplains to Parish Unions.
P rotect the inhabitants of Workhouses from the infraction
of their Religious Rights.
to annihilate harsh, protracted, and costly proceedings in Ec-
TO
clesiastical Courts. And,
Obtain decisive redress for the many debasing and intolerant
grievances of which Dissenters and Methodists have too long
and but ineffectually complained.
And that they trust not only will their Committee make re-
bonsand expansive exertions, but that all congenial Institu-
and local Societies, and the liberal and enlightened in.
ta:.ery
,„ ,Part df the world, will co-operate to extend those
• —rnPas of Religious Liberty which are founded on eternal astice and truth. g
That to James Baldwin Brown, Esq., L.L.D., the Trea-
talrer--to John Wilks, Esq., Honorary Secretary—and to the
,""nlbers of the Committee, the thanks of this Meeting be pre-
:Pted for their unwearied and honourable labours—and for the
ailitddern and energy, activity and prudence, they have displayed;
• that the following ministers and gentlemen be appointed the

to Lout
the Marquis of Lansdowne, Lord Holland, Lord John
t. until, her Majesty's Lord Lieutenant in Ireland, and other die-
}:atrished Members of the yet existing Administration, who
ove heretofore presided at these Anniversaries—who, through
an; and good report, have adv o cated the cause of Dissentsrs
whq exercised their talents and influence on their behalf—and
io ° have mainly assisted all the legislative improvements
their favour, that have been attained ; but they would
peso announce their anxiety and their hopes, that those noble
at"s, in continuing their official distinctions, will connect
d3ov,, yet more decisively with religious liberty and reform;
eon Promoting popular education—the general welfare, and
_estitutional rights will attract new loyalty to the Throne—
.' re
prosperity to the empire--and towards themselves, yet
„ tier gratitude and reverence—more decided and extended
"aPport.
SUSSEX, Chairman.
• 7• That this Meeting feel it difficult to record the pe-
diBtr and unequalled delight with which they have enjoyed the
High gllished favour and honour of the presence of his Royal
ness the Duke of Sussex to preside on this occasion, and after
