~ 'Resolved, That. ltulitic al 1 7yre r appears 'to us not as a mat-
ter a geticeal ri4ut, hut of serectiou and par liege, which
those, in whose ley aelinowleiiged and established pre-
scription it resides, .oray in variety tit degrees, on sound reo-
ton, impart to, or witlihilld from, various ric,,seri of the ciao-
But while it is obvious that no ch,;no should: be
made, except. on reat.o.n proportiOncti to its iniportaucei'.We
hat t been 'taught to liclicv,a, that there site fixed principles in
tint ,Pritidi Constitution, which no change ern) unsettle, with-
OM destroying the Constitution itself; one of these we hold
tp be .that which inal.e3 the Protestant religion the reli-
gion of .the State, which governs the realm by laws enacted
by. a Protestant King, Protestant Lords, and Protestant Cum-
. Such is the Constitution which Inn been handed down
to us by our fathertii and such we trust we shall transmit it
but posterity.
Rooked, 'l'hat heside.s.the general danger which must re-
sult from opening the barriers' of our. Constitution, we see
many specific dangers of an alarming nature in the Ismaili..
Lion now proposed. If Roman Catholics are to he admitted
to seats in Parliament, we know not on what argument their.
exclusion from Iho Throne ean.heustitied.' if the professors
of every mode of Cavistian Faith are to have equal erspect iti
the eyes of Constitution, we .know, that many
eli he ready to :I.egne against any One or th.eio having
toblishment ; but Irons what the history of minty ages attests
of the aspiring spirit of the Roman Catholic hierarchy, and
(Von what even our own limited experience sliewi us 'of the
peninacity, of their priesthood, we own wt, apprehend a darn.
.gee of a (Infest:a sort, in giving to the 'Church. of Rome, at
suite future and inure favourahlo period, an us.:endant esta-.
blishment in Ireland.

llesolvt•d, That the arsoments advonced by the abettors of
the Roman Catioilie Claims do not aprly to the removal of
those dangers, nor convince us of the eweessity of submittilig
to them. The'numhers of the itoman (oetl,ulics, exaggerated
us'they are to aill the purposes of the argument, do not
niidate ill melee llVClll'ate returns, the increased
population of our Protestant brethren in Circa Britain; and
We hove no notion* for supposing that the proportion •of our
Protestant populntion Ireland has been, ibininished since
the.enactineot of the penal laws. When we are told that
this is the only mode by which our Itonian Catholic brethreo
veer he comilioted, we answer that the du, nut look un them
in a light so oofavourable as to believe that such is tilt; tact,
but if their mfections have not beet) conciliated bythe benefits
which hey already enjoy, if their loyalty is nut yet firmly a,
tacked to the Sovereign under wlorie Koran,„„,„t those,
