CAIIiIOLIC QU,ESTION.

Air. FREMANTLE rose, and stated, that in the
absence -01 . an Hon. Gentleman, he proposed to
postpone the motion relative to the Catholics of Ire-
land to the 14th of April next.

The Cn-Ascr.r.t.ou of the Exencatren .then rose
end said, that upon a question of so, great importance
to the empire at large, he had already thought it his
.duty,to give notice of hi 3 intention to move for a Call
'of the Hoese„in order that there might be as large an
_ Assembly as possible of the Members, to discuss and
decide on thatsubjett He was aware that It had
been stated, that this motion would meet with the
_general, if not the unanimous support of the court-
-try ; but he remained of the same opinion which he
had before entertained and expressed,. that those
who indulged in such sentiments were deceived.
The .more and the deeper he could look into the
opinions and feelings of the majority of the people
of this.tountry, who ought not to, be misled on this
subject, the 'more he Wa3 convinced that the mea-
surepooosed was one which would, in all its stages,
meet with their disapprObaiion. _ He hid no objec-
tion to accede to the proposed postponement; but if
the discussion were fixed -for the 14th, he should
content- himself with giving-notice, that he should
move the call of the House on Monday, the 13th of
April.
Mr WHITBREAD said, that he Was as anxious as
a! y Member, that on the approaching discussion,
there should be as full a House as possible. So fat
for proposal (or a call had his perfect assent. He
was not at all surprised at the conduct of the y.ight
Honourable Gentlentan in the notice, hodiad given;
for if any thing could mislead the people of Eng-
land on ,this subject, they would be misled by his
measures: By the sokmnity with -i.vhich the Right
-HotaGe‘,t. had given his notice, and the Observations
v►i.h which be lead accompanitd it, it appeared clear
to him (Mr. \V.). that the whole influence of the
Exr_TutiveGoveroment of the country was to be em-
ti yed, tor the purpose of -opposing the claims of
the Roman (~:.itholic Petitioners of Ireland. From
what had passed that n;ght, he could also under-
s.and, that in the app:ications made under the ad.-
viee the, Right Hon. Gentleman, to those who.
ou fundamental and vital principles opposed
to i.is ,ystem of Government, that. Right -Hon.:
Gentlemou supposed that those persons to whom
that apvlication was made might have acceded to•
it, though 'he (Mr. W.) was well convinced, that
they .ytopld rather do anything,--that they would
sooner der, than sacrifice their duty and their 'prin-
ciples, to join and support that Bight Hon. Gentle-
man's system of administration.
The Call was th n ,fixed for the 13th of April.
The Mutiny 13111 went through the Committee,
was reported, and ordered to be read the third time
to-morrow.

The I-Joust! then went through the Committee on
thrl. 1„ and. the other orders were
d si o•ed of.---Adjourued.

The last accounts,from America have assumed
a mote pacific tone than usual. Finding that Great
Britain was,not to be bullied out of her most essen-
tial and indisputable rights, the Ameritan Govern-
silent will possibly consider a lit.tle coolly the proba,

cirri,ed on with great atiivity, and there are grounds
to hope.

countries will be arranged on terms consistent with'
