GRAND DINNER AT CANTERBURY,
TO COMMEMORATE HIS MAJESTY'S DECLARA
TION IN FAVOUR OF THE CHURCH:'

This dinner took place on Thurday last at Bellingham's
Assembly Rooms, Canterbury, the Right Hon. the Earl of
WINCHILSEA in the Chair, for the purpose of commemo-
rating the " Declaration" recently made by his Majesty
in support of the Established Church.

The cloth having been removed
The Noble PRESIDENT rose and said grace, in which the
company ioined, after which his Lordship presented him-
self, and having called on the company to charge their
glasses, proposed the health of " the King, three times
three, and God bless him 1" which was drunk with the most
marked enthusiasm.
" The health of her most gracious Majesty the Queen,
and the rest of the Royal Family" followed. The toast was
drunk with loud and continued hurras, and followed by the
excellent glee—
" Here's a health to the King and Queen."
After " the health of the Princess Victoria, and the
House of Brunswick, and may they never lose sight of the
principles which seated their family on the Throne of these
Realms" had been drunk with enthusiasm,
The Noble PRESIDENT rose and said—The toast which
be had next to propose to the company was one which em-
bracea. those constitutional principles in support of which
they were assembled on the present occasion—he meant
their Protetant Constitution in Church and State.—(Great
and long confirmed cheering.) Before leaving the toast in
their hands, evinc;:tg as they bad already done, and evincing
—as he was sure they would do—their warm attachment to
the principles which it e:nbraced—judging, also, of their
Constitution as a source of tvttional prosperity, he craved
their attention while he addressee them for a few moments.
—(Hear, hear.) In the first place he never, he begged to
say, felt himself placed in a situation in ivlich he more re-
quired their indulgence than on the present occasion.—
(Hear.) He was, therefore, confident how inadequate he
was to discharge the duty which had fallen upon him on
this most important day—the most important, he would
say, of his life, and the most important that could arise in
the history of the country. The object of the meeting was
opposed to that infidel spirit with which their Constitution
was threatened, a spirit which, if they did not arouse them-
selves, emanating as it did from the Church of Rome, would
involve their constitution in ruin—(Hear, hear, and much
applause.) The principles which he supported were of the
most purely constitutional character, and could not but be
supported by every man—be his principles Whig or Tory
—( Hear, hear, and cheers.) It was in vain for them to
shut their eyes to the danger which surrounded their Pro-
testant Constitution in Church and State—(Cheers)—and
on this point it would be folly—nay, downright insanity, for
them to deceive themselves--(Hear, hear.) In speaking
upon this question, he could not but allude to the two most
important measures which, in the last Session, were carried
through the Commons House- of Parliament, but rejected
in the Upper House, to which he (Lord Winchilsea) had
the honour to belong ; and in speaking of those measures
—the one, " the Jewish Relief Bill," and the other, " the
Bill for the Admission of Dissenters to their Universities"—
(Hear, hear, and applause)—and in alluding to those mea-
sures, he could not but advert, and he did so with great
pleasure, to the manner—the conscientious manner, in
which they were opposed by his two venerable and highly-
esteemed friends, the Members for the Eastern Division of
the County of Kent. They could not dwell upon the
sanction which those two Members received in the Com-
mons House of Parliament, without coming to the well-
founded, but painful conclusion, that the Commons, as at
present constituted—that House, he would add, which
formerly did honour to the country, and guarded from in-
roads their Protest'ant Constitution—required to be well
and narrowly watched by the real friends of constitutional
liberty—(Hear, hear, and cheers): Another object of the
company meeting on that occasion, was to express their
heartfelt gratification at the late declaration made by the
Sovereign to the Bishops, and his firm determination to
preserve the principles of the Protestant religion in Church
and State—(Cheering)--of those principles which placed
the House of Brunswick upon the throne of this kingdom.
He would not conceal from the meeting his fears respect-
ing certain measures, which had received the Royal
Assent—which assent, he maintained, was gained with a
view to ulterior objects, and by means which ought never to
be attempted nor practised. One measure to which he al-
luded was calculated to make a great alteration in the Con-
stitution—he alluded to the measure for making an altera-
tion in the Church of Ireland. He did not mean to assert
that a Commission issued for inquiry into the Church Esta-
blishment, whether with the view of increasing the disci-
pline of the Church, or for the purpose of effecting improve-
ments in the Constitution, should meet with opposition
from him ; but so far from it, he would place his hand upon
his heart, and declare that he would most cordially give his
assent to a measure introduced for such a purpose. But
when he heard the Members of the Government openly
avow that the object of the Commission was the diminu-
tion of places of worship and of the Members of the Church,
he felt it his duty to oppose that measure to the full extent
of his power.—( Hear.) He considered that the country
had not a moment to lose in taking means to protect itself
from the worthless duplicity, and the dangerous designs of a
certain portion of its adversaries. He would not conceal
from the meeting his apprehensions that those designs would
be proposed to Parliament next session, for the evident pur-
pose of destroying the Established Church in Ireland, and
also for the purpose of abolishing the Protestant religion in
that country. Under these most appalling circumstances,
it was their duty to make the public mind acquainted with
those designs, to open the eyes of their fellow-countrymen,
who have been misled by those encroachments upon the
Constitution, to open the eyes of their Sovereign to the ad-
vice given to him by the adversaries in the Cabinet, in
which, he knew, the same difference of opinion existed that
prevailed there some time since ; "and," said the Noble Earl,
" I must call upon you to look to the organised conspiracy
which exists for the destruction of the Protestant religion in
Ireland, and to the attempts that are made to pull down
every thing that may be considered as the props of the
country." The Noble Earl then alluded to the conduct of
Mr. O'Connell, whom he described as an immoral agitator,
and said it was a disgrace to the Government that he had
been suffered to go on trilling with the laws, and insulting
the House of Commons. That individual had been de-
nounced in the speech from the Throne at the commence-
ment of the last Session, as an enemy to the public peace
and tranquillity of the country, but he had now become the
bosom friend of the Government, and was acknowledged as
a " dictator" in their councils. If the meeting valued the
liberties they enjoyed under the Constitution, he called
upon them to evince their feeling in its behalf. If they re-
garded the Established Church, and viewed it as the bright-
est gem that could be conferred upon the country, and con-
sequently an invaluable blessing—if they found it fitted to
the frame of the Constitution, and embodied with that
feeling an attachment to the Church, he implored the
meeting boldly to stand forward, and resist the progress of
that infidelity which was now making rapid progress.—
(Hear, hear.) No sacrifice was too great to accomplish that
purpose. He called upon them to give proof of the sin-
cerity of their attachment to the Church, and to transmit it
to posterity as the most invaluable blessing that could be
conferred upon them. The Noble Earl then proposed
" Our Protestant Constitution in Church and State," and
said he gave the toast with all his heart. The toast was
drank, and cheered in the most enthusiastic manner, with
three times three. " One cheer more" was repeated in
several parts of the room, and the toast was again drunk
with the same feeling, and amidst three times three more
cheers.
After several other loyal and patriotic toasts had been
drunk, and after several appropriate speeches had been made
the health of the Members of the Eastern Division of Kent
was given, upon which
Sir EDWARD KNATCHBULL—In reference to the object
of the meeting, he would venture to hope that the tenour of
his life had been consistent with the opinions which the
Noble President had expressed. He was himself proud to
be a friend of the Established Church, and if he deviated
from that opinion he knew he should not represent the feel-
ings of the meeting, or the feelings of his constituents
generally.—(Cheers.) His Noble Friend had alluded to
the course adopted with regard to the Jewish Emancipation
repetecl by the House of Lords, the Mem-
was fortunatelßill, which was carried in the House of Commons, but Which

to the Universities, from its first introu.....
House of Commons, till it passed the Legislature. No
one would wish to withhold from the Dissenters that which
could, with safety, be conceded; these, however, were topics
that must come under consideration ; and he would wish
that the Dissenters, who believe they labour under
grievances, would have those grievances redressed. He did
not believe that the Dissenters were the persons who raised
the cry for a redress of grievances, but that it was made by
