Sir ROBERT PEEL thought it was not quite fair to
call for returns from this institution. He thought it
would not be proper to distinguish the religious persuasions
of the members or students of the University. He op-
posed the motion in its present form, because he thought
no good could result from it, and because he considered
it might form a very inconvenient precedent, and one
detrimental to public business.
Mr. SHAW also opposed it, and thought nothing
could be more invidious and unreasonable than to call
upon professional gentlemen in the University to state
the amount of their private emoluments. Nothing, in
his opinion, could be more improper. With regard to
that part of the motion calling fur a return of the num-
bers of Catholics and Protestants, he thought, as well as
being only injudicious, it was very useless, as it was well
known that s•.tholars and fellows in that univer-
sity must be Protestants, but that Roman Catholics
might be, and great numbers were, undergraduates of
Trinity College.
After a few words from Sir R. PEEL,
Mr. WYSE consented to withdraw the present mo-
tion, at the same time proMising to introduce one in an
amended form.
Sir R. PEEL moved that the Select Committee on
controverted elections do consist of sixteen Members,
and that Lord Ashley's name be added to the same Com-
mittee.—Agreed to.
The Report of the Committee of Supply was then
brought up and received.
The Orders of the Day were then disposed of, and
the House adjourned till Monday, the 15th of April.
