tRC URH-RATES, POOR-LAWS, AND'
RELIGIOUS FREEDOM.
It a MEETING of the COMMITTEE of " The PR OTER.
•ANT SOCIETY for the PROTECTION of RELIGIOUS
.lIERTY," held on Tuesday. .April 20th, 1841, at the
tug's Head T.vern, in the Poultry, London,
JOHN WILKS, Esq., in the Chair,
It was unanimously Resolved,
That to the subject of Church Rates this Committee
Fain advert, with even augmented anxiety and alarm. That
itgainst them they have often remonstrated, as unjust in prin-
re—aa oppressive to Dissenters and Methodists— and as pro-
,,tletive of local disunion, parochial discord, costly and vexa-
tfts litigation, and cruel imprisonments and distress. That
their non-existence in Scotland, and th-ir abrogation in
essential
they had been taught to believe- that they were not
even to the worship and welfare of any Established
Church ; and that by the votes of the House of Commons, and
the successive measures of the Parliamentary leaders of both
sties in the legislature, they had been encouraged to hope
A:at they would long since have ceased to exist. But that
''saPpointed in V ese hopes—indignant at the measures taken
r, the Ecclesiastical Courts—aroused by the incarceration of
°1
Thorogood and Mr. Baines—astonished at the new per-
-"tties in which the state of the law relating to them seems
perversely involved—and excited by the hostile opirit, as to
Jir imposition and enforcement, which the high-church-party
7cliticnally display, they cannot but co-operate with the ac-
., enlightened, and conscientious, throughout England and
sail, in opposing their continuancewill again petition
ti'e Reuse of Commons for their immediate and total aboli-
°4. And that the Petition now read be adopted, be signed
1
the Chairman, and be presented by Alderman Sir Matthew
°l'd, Bart., their estimable and well-tried friend and
colleague.
2. That this Committee must always consider the possession
of Religious Freedom as an invaluable privilege, to which all
4,:r! entitled—and which poor men, as well as princes, should
IY enjoy ; and that they regard with apprehension and regret,
all those measures connected with the new system of
poor-laws and the provisions in the Bill depending
Parliament, by which chaplains and schoolmasters
rtioected with the Established Church are exclusively to
4. appointed, and are to be pad out of rates to
ieh Non-conformists, and every class ,of Dissenters are
I:red to contribute ; by which also the poor, resident in
jorkhouses, are compelled to unite in services which they
risaPProve—and are prevented from freely attending the re-
igious worship the conscientiously prefer ;.—and by which
t 0 hed
, e ucation of children, separated from their parents, and
be trained up to the creed and forms of the Church, may
._e converted into a means of pain-inflicting and sectarian per-
7eation—inconsistent with benevolent feelings—with liberal
Kinciples—and the most sacred rights. And,
1,3. That on a general survey of the lofty claims and un-
'4, conduct recently asserted and pursued by many Reve-
Z!lMembers of the Established Church—and of the disposi-
tttnanifested to treat Dissenters And Methodists with con-
1y and wrong, and to extend and aggravate, rather than
oittaove or diminish, ll the rieva.efes of which they corn-
the Q.--this Committeea become additionally convinced, that
Won of that Church with the State will ere long become
ittil too obnoxious to he endured ; that unslumbering vigi-
Ze—combined and augmented zeal—and universal well-di-
-fired efforts on the part of all friends to Religious Liberty, are
ftpensably needful, and should not be delayed ; and that in
41'11 exertions this Committee will cheerfully and firmly concur.

RE-ANIMATION.
THE MEDICINAL EFFECTS of STEEL,
as a strengthener and restorative, have been known for
Zes to excel those of all other articles of the Materia Mediae,
ti M this age of luxury and dissipation, when the indiscretions
g
Youth disappoint the expectations of maturity, it is not to be
,'lndered that a medicine of such efficacy as SEDDON'S
Nuine AROMATIC LOZENGES of STEEL should have
Wtl:acted the attention of the first medical men in Europe.
toen the most important functions of life are suspended, and
°4 who are invalids by inheritance or imprudence are reduced
ivthe most deplorable state of nervous debility, it is not in
nPair that relief is to be found. It has been ascertained, be-
ll: a doubt that these circumstances are occasioned by a ge-
-41 or partial relaxation nr weaknesses in either sex ; and it
if ovally certain that SEDDON'S LOZENGES are the best,
til!la the only remedy ever discovered for this specie 3 of de-
th 'V. When taken into the stomach they immediately diffuse
tteraselves like a vapour through evory pore, producing effects
,;'oce delightful, salutary, and permanent. When the spark
f' life begins to grow dim, the ciiculation, languid, and the
4etlitiPs paralysed, these Lozenges are found to give tone to
:exhilirate the animal spirits, invigorate the body,
I'4 r-animate the whole man. When aversion to exercise,
as oredepravity of appetite, and pallid countenance, indicate
413140 aching consumption, the delicate female will be preserved
d restored to health and society by the benign influence of
this medicine.
