• Lord KENYON presented a petition against the Claims of
the Catholics, from a parish in the county of Salop.
The LORD CHANCELLOR presented petitions, of a simi-
lar nature from the Borough of Malden, from Gloucester, from
Edington, and from four parishes in the county of Sussex.
The Earl of EGREMONT presented a petition to the same
effect from the Inhabitants of Brighton, to which, the Noble
Lord observed, 500 signatures had been affixed in three hours.
Similar petitions were presented by Lord ARDEN from Pe-
terborough.
By the Duke of BEAUFORT; from the Mayor, Alder-
men, and Common Council of the city of Bristol; front the
parishes of St. Phillips, St. James, and St. Stephens, in the
same city.
The .F;arl of DF;R BY presented a petition in favour of the
claims of the Catholics, from the town and neighbourhood of
Manchester. The Noble Earl said that the petition contained
the signatureei of 16,370 persons; and that people of all per-
suasions had united in forwarding their sentiments to their
Lordships. lie believed the sentiments it expressed were those
of the majority of the people in that populous neighbourhood.
The petition had been agreed to at a public meeting, where,
after five hours' discussion, the question was carried by a ma-
jority of three to one.—The petition was then read.
Tne Bishop of CH ESTER said that he felt it-necessary to
make a few observations relative to the petition that had been just
read t but before he stated some facts respecting it, he would ob-
serve that a petition egainst the Claims of the CatholiEs 'would be
soon presented to their Lordships from the same place, and that
such petitions contained 40,000 signatures. It was true that the
petition presented by the Noble Lord (Derby) was agreed to at
a public meeting. But he (the Bishop of Chester) felt it neces-
sary to state some circumstances that had oceurred at such
public meeting. The room in which the meeting took place
was filled at an early hour by an equal proportion of conces-
sionists and non-concessionists, but soon afterwards, a ques-
tion of adjournment was put and carried, in consequence of.
which a great number of the most respectable persons took
their hats and left the roam ; but the subject was subsequently
proceeded with, and it was decided by a majority of the meet-
ing that the petition should be presented. Immediately on those
persons quitting the room their places were filled by a number
of the lowest persons ; and he had reason to believe that of the
lfeooo persons who signed the petition ten or-twelve thousand
were Irish labourers. With respect to the petition that would
shortly be presented front I%lanchester, although it was not con-
sidered necessary to call a public meeting to forward it, it was
left for signature in the most public plaees, but a number of
Irish labourers forced themselves into a room in which it lay,
and scrawled it so as to efface many of the names. Several of
those persons had also signed it with a X. in order to prejudice
their Lordships against it. This was however discovered in
time, but the consequence was, that the petition would be pre-
vented as the petition of 38,000 instead of 40,000. Their Lord-
ships then would have no difficulty in deciding which of the
two petitions was most worthy their attention. He found, on
examining the petition presented by the Noble Earl, that im-
mediately after the name of the boroughreeve were the names
of many Irishmen, such as " Michael Sweeny," " Timothy
O'Callaghan," etc. This, however, was not important, and
he merely stated it to prove the correctness of his observation
that the petition was signed by many Irish.
The Earl of DERBY said that as the Rt. Rev. Prelate had
stated that the names of several Irishmen came immediately after
that of the boroughreeve, he begged leave to inform the Right
Rev. Prelate that the second name of the petition, was that of
" ItUrney," a gentleman who was an officer in the volunteer
corps. lie repeated that the petition contained many more re-
spectable names, and he believed the sentiments contained in it
were those of the majority of the people in Manchester. He
hoped that the measure they advocated would pass the House,
as he conceived it not only necessary to the tranquillity of Ire-
-land, but equally a matter of right and of justice.
The Earl of LIMERICK complained of the Manner in which
the Right Rev. Prelate had alluded to the "lowest order of
Irish,". who surely had a right to express opinions on a subject
in which their dearest interests were concerned.
The Bishop of CH ESTER explained that nothing was far-
ther from his feelings than to cast ally stigma on any body of
men. When he used the words " lowest class," he did so
merely with reference to their worldly condition.
Lord CLIFDEN said, that the observation only proved it to
be true, that the Irish, from the highest to the lowest, felt
strongly on this important subject.
The tali of DERBY presented a petition in favour of the
claims of the Catholics, from the Unitarians of Liverpool and
its vicinity.—The petition was read.
The Earl of DA RNLEY presented a petition to the same
effect, from Rochester and its vicinity, in the county of Kent.—
The Noble Earl observed that a-petition of an opposite nature
had recently been presented by a Right Rev. Prelate, which
was got by means of placards, hand-bills, and cries of " No.
Popery.
The Earl of A BINGDGN presented a petition from Abing_
don, against the Claims of the Catholics. The Noble Earl ob-
served that he had used no influence whatever to procure this
petition. II e fully and conscientiously agreed in the sentiments
it expressed.
Lord DYNEVOR presented a petition to the same effect,
from
rishes in the '
th e cousamnty e
coua of Crn ty: marthen, and others from several pa-
• The Bishop of LINCOLN presented ten petitions from as
many parishes in the Diocese' of Lincoln. The Right Rev.
Prelate observed, that as a Noble' Lord opposite (Lord King)
had said that but few petitions had been presented from large
Dioceses, he would entreat him to recollect that the Diocese of
Lincoln was one of the largest, if not the largest, in England.
lie had never used any kind of influence to procure petitions,
because he did not think it would be just in any one-who had
to decide upon a question to seek for petitions on the subject.

effect from- several hundreds in Suffolk ; front Market Ilarbo-
and from the parish of St.
