LONDON,

MONDAY, MARCH 2, 1912.

We have received a Dublin Paper of Friday last,
from'Which we have extracted the proceedings of
the Aggregate Meeting of the Catholics. •

'We were in hOpes that We should hare been en-
abled +his day to communicate to our readers some
•
intelligence from Portugal; but there has not been
any arrival. It is generally believed, that General
Iltr.r. has advanced, with some important objeet in
view. It has been_stated, that he -means to'make
an attack upon Set ille ; but this is merely conjec-
ture. The next Lisbon mail, however, will remove
all doubts upon this subject. General HILL, we
.know, has detached a part of his face upon a se-
cret expedition : we have seen a letter from an
Prficei Who.is employed upon it.

The Morning Chronicle 'has of late been liberal of
its praises of Mr. PERCEVAL, for his consistency
upon the Catholic Question. We certainly do
agree with the Chronicle in the applause which it,
beitows upon that Gentleman; but we are, we
cGinfesi, a little surprised to find that his praise
should come from that quartei, and upon such a
subject. It is impossible to speak favourably of
out conveying a diiet charge upon Lords GItEN.
VILLA and GREY, who have displayed a flexibility
of opinion upon that sublect that is really quite

avonishing. When the former of these Noble
Lords wrote his. celebrated Letter to Lord FINGAL,
Le had no idea of unlimited concession. He then
• talked of suitable arrangements to be maturely
prepared. Not one word does his Lordship say
about absolute, immediate, unconditional concession
to the Clthblies; on the contrary, his Lordship says,
" Circumstanced as this question now is, both in
England and in Ireland, it is', -on the contrary, my
deliberate opinion, that no Motiori grounded on
your Petition e,,uld, at this time,. in any hands,
Certainly not in mine, be brought forward without
great and permanent disadvantage to its objeet."—
We have before quoted his Lordship's opinion re-
tecting the Veto,,which appeared to him at that
time to be absolutely indispensable. His Lordship's
reasoning upon that subject was conclusive, and we
are inclined to think that he will find it difficult, if
not impo4sinle, to\ weak.en its force.
