Extrncts from the Morning Papers, Oct. 11.

[BRITISH PRESS.]
Rumour announces the • intention of Mr. Can-
ning to take measures next Session, for obliging
_every person, previously to his being appointed to
any public office in, jre la fid; zin make oath thn't

cal • association. We do not attach much credit
to this report. Such a step would not be, in
itself, either wise or well-timed. It is not an
effective or Statesman-like measure, nor such as
it is likely an enlarged mind like Mr. Canning's
Would adopt. There is nothing remedial' in it ;
it sailers all the inherent diseases to work on in.
wardly, while it goes merely to prevent, if
possible, their breaking nut upon the surface. It
leaves the causes at work, while it concealS the
daUger. Such a policy would be every way in-
jurious. It were better, infinitely, that we should
tee, in all their pernicious latitude, the evils which
afflict Ireland, in which case they would force
themselves emphatically upon public attention,
than that we should keep up an outside show of
amity and good understanding between parties,
whom the laws and the system of government
keep asunder,and who in secret would be spreading
everywhere the deplorable consequences of their
hostility. The Marquis Wellesley has done much
towards weakening that inveterate. Orange' fac-
tion which bud shown itself an overmatch for all
former Lord Lieutenants. The leading measures
of his administration have not .been temporary ;
they have precluded for ever the return of the
abuses they have removed. The advantages gained
for Ireland are lasting ; the ends of justice are not
only better secured than they ever before were,
but, their result is made certain. The Noble
Marquis has not only put the grain into the
ground, but he has ensured the crop. Testifying
a due: regard for the safety of the Irish Church,
be has been at the same time anxious to rescue
the Catholics from the influence of Orange coun-
cils, and to remove the invidious distinctions
which severed them from their Protestant fellow.
subjects. Some there are, we know, who teem
to think the oppression of the sister kingtiortr
ought never to have an end ; who are of—opiniett
that any further concession to the Ca tholics would
be improper ; that they have already had as
much granted to them as they ought, in decenCy,
to' ask ; and, that to solicit any thing further, in
the way of indulgence, is most unreasonable, and
manifests a spirit of importunity never to be
tati4fied.

The accounts of the Revenue for the Quarter
which dred yesterday are understood to be of a
highly favourable character. The most marked
improvement is said to be in the Customs (allow.
ing for the Silk repayments), in the Excise, -end
the Stamps. The accounts of the Irish Re-.
