mitted to the committee ; and that all petitions complain-
ing of non-compliance with the standing orders, in rela-
tion to the said amended bill, be referred to the examiners,
with instructions to hear parties and their agents and wit-
nesses thereupon.
Mr. DODSON opposed the motion, which, after a short

ROMAN CATHOLIC OATHS BILL.—(THE
ADJOURNED DEBATE.)
On the motion for the house going into committee on this
bill,
Mr. NEWDEGATE, as an amendment, moved that the
house go into committee that day six months. He was of
opinion that the bill now under discussion was the first
attempt that had been made to disturb the compact entered
into in the year 1829. There had been two committees, it
was true, to consider the oaths taken by the members of
the house, yet, although all the other oaths had been con-
sidered, the Roman Catholic oath had never been touched.
(Hear, hear.) There had been, therefore, no inquiry into
the substance of the oath, or the manner in which it was
now proposed to alter it. The Government had asked the
house to go into committee on this bill, and yet there was
not on the notice paper one single word to lead the house
to imagine the alterations proposed. Tho Home Secretary
had stated that he was not prepared to go the whole length
proposed by the bill, and that being the case, he thought
he might have had the grace and favour to announce the
exact distance he was prepared to go. As that course had
not been adopted, he felt it his duty to do all he possibly
could to prevent the bill becoming the law of the land. He
was a staunch Protestant by conviction, and as such he
wished to resist that which he considered schismatic,
heretical, and corrupt, and he took the course
he did because there was a feeling and an earnest
desire on the part of, Roman Catholics in that country to
" subdue an Imperial people," as was said by Dr. Manning,
the successor of Cardinal Wiseman, to the domination of
the Church of Rome. The house had removed nearly every
obstacle in the way of religious freedom, but he thought it
too much to ask the house to set aside one which only
went the length of making it compulsory that the
hear.)co i
tution of the country should be respected. (Hear,
Mr. TREHEARNE seconded the motion.
Mr. GREGORY said he could not understat

He altogether denied that the Roman Catholics were so

because some of the

a banner blest by the Pope. Now, be would ask, who was
the person conspicuous in the defeat of that great fleet?
Why, Lord Howard of Effingham, a Roman Catholic ; and,
again, who at that particular time afforded the
most important assistance a subject could give
a sovereign ? why, Lord Montague, a Roman Catholic.
(Hear, hear.) A tissue of obstacles had been
related to the house with a view of impeding the mea-
sure, but he believed the result would be that that which was
but an act of justice would receive the sanction and sup-
port of the majority of that house.
Sir J. PAKINGTON said the object of the bill was vir-
tually to repeal one of the arrangements entered into with
the Roman Catholics in 1829, and the bringing it forward
at that particular time ho regarded with imminent danger,
because it might tend to revive that angry feeling between
Roman Catholics and Protestants which he so greatly de-

THE FATAL ACCIDENT TO CAPTAIN NEWBERY.—
This morning Dr. Lankester continued the enquiry,
adjourned from yesterday, into the circumstances touching
the death of Captain Newbery, who was killed by the
falling of a wall of the Lilleshall Coal Company. Afthr
some further evidence had been given the jury returned the
following verdict :—" That the deceased met his death from
accidental causes."

THE EASTERN FISHERIES.—The spring herring
voyage may now be said to have terminated on the eastern
coast. Some of the Lowestoft boats are proceeding to fish
for herrings in the Irish Channel. The catches of mackerel
made by the Great Yarmouth boats have been small during
the last few days. Prices have varied—according to qua-
lity and the time at which the fish were brought into the
harbour—from 325. to 465. per 100 (132) fish.
FATAL BOAT ACCIDENT ON THE RIVER LEA.—
On Sunday evening a gentleman was rowing in an out-
rigger on the River Lea, when, by a false stroke of the oar,
the vessel was upset near Lea-bridge, and 10 minutes
elapsed before the deceased was got out. He was then
found to be dead.

Standard gold at the English Mint price is, therefore, about
10the per cent. dearer inndon thin in Hamburg.
