a million and a half paid for the building of churches. There
was a million for tithes in Ireland. And he begged to say that
that measure came upon the publie surreptitiously. It was
said that most effectual means would be taken to get -the money
back, but when the Bill passed, they were told it was impos-
sible to collect ths arnourt. Then, again, since 1826. ?here
were 400,00 e/. taken from the taxes for the support of religion
in the West Indies, and a -11111 of 1 1,600/. was voted for the
clergy in Canada. The Hon. Baronet the Member for Oxford
opposed this measure in an open and fair way. hut he begged
to ask him this question. He begged to know from the Hon.
13aroeet why he del not °eject to the payment 1 ;Otto/ a
year to the Roman Catholic Bishop of Quebec, end of 700/. a
year to the Roman Catholic Bishop of Newfoundland. When he
(Mr. Williams) divided the Reuse upon the whole grant,
he had not the honour of the Hon. Barenetes support. by
so? Why, because of the 11,600/ no less a sum than
10.0001. was paid to the support of the Established Church,
ant the Hon. Baronet, because he grit eo much for the
bishops and clergy of his an Church, was not over enxistus
to objsct to the small sum which was given to others.
If this was not the reason he should like to keow what
was. He fund that lt 91. was paid out of the taxes to
which the Roman Ca holies end the' losenters contributed for
tl,e expenses of a journey made by the Bishop of Gibraltar, to
lesbon, in a steam-vessel, arid that 3101. was votee to the same
Bishop for jeuritey s to Cadiz and Palermo last year. He had no
doubt those were very pleasant excursions, but the Roman Ca-
th lies and the Dissenters contributed to pay for them, and that
ought to be taken into account. The Bishop of Antigua had
received 1471. for serilar expenses. and the Bishop of tearba-
does, who had 4,000/. a year, received 180/. f.r his travelling
expenses.— (Hears hear. ) Now he should like to know
how any person co Id justify the taxing of the Ro-
man Catholics and Dissenters for purposes like these.
13.0801. had been last year gie- n to the Scotch Universities.
The revenues of the Scotch Church were only 17,31 01. a year,
whilst three academies in the North of -In land received
27,000/. a year. He did rot f, e how honest men could tax
Rion= Catholics so heavily, and yet refuse to allow so small a
sum for the maint, nance end education of those designed to he
religious teachers of the great body of the Irish people. The
opposition to the measure was unjust, uncharitable and based
on a bad principle. A suns of 5 600/. was annually paid to
the dissenting clergymen in the North of Ire' .nd. and why had
not those who now so valorously. and ots such a pretended as-
sumption of trinsiple opposed the Maynouth grant, on the
voluntary principle opposed those other grants he had enume-
rated in previous years ? He supported this measure with
pain, because he acted in opposition to the opinion of many of
his warmest supporters amongst the dissenting, body. He
could not conceive why this questieh of voluntary principle
should now be so warmly espoused when it had been for so
many years sufe red to lie dormant. It certainly showed a bad
and art unkind feeling towards Boman Catholics. He would
give his conscientious support to the measure. —( Cheers.)
Sir R. INGLIS said the Hon Member for Coventry had
asked him how he could consistently vote for taxing his Roman
Catholic and Dissenting fellow-subjects for pecuniary advantage
to the Established Chun: h, or why is should tax other sects to
maintain one sect. Now it was because he did not believe the
Church of England to be a sect, but the great depository of the
religion of the State that he had supported, and eculd always
support it. He would support the Establishment of the Church
of England at hone and abroad. lie would no' follow
the Hon. Member through all his statements, but would say
that, with respect to the visitations to which tire Hon. Member
.had referred as matters of exeense, that the visitors could de-
rive no other pleasure from them but just that which men who
felt gratified in the discharge of their laborious and onerous
duties could derive. The Hon. Member fur Rochdale was
dealing with property the oldest and most sacred in the king-
dom—the property of God and of his Church. The general
object of the lion. Member was the destruction of all established
religions, but was more particularly aimed at the Church of
England. If that motion shcoltl ever succeed, the poor, to
whom tie blessings of religion were most important, could never
hope to receive them. This was the chief revon why he had
opposed, sad shoulu always oppose, such a proposition as that of
the Hon. Member for Rochdale.
Dr. BOW RING Said he considered the position of the Hon.
Baronet the Member for the Univei city of Oxford as unenviable
as it was infatuated. The Hon. Baronet said, my doctrines
are the true doctrines, all others are fslse, and no money shall
be appropriated to any other; mine shall be endowed, and no
other shall get a farthing. lie would vote against the amend-
ment, and did not think it a proper season to bring it forward.
After much consideration he had, though at the sacrifice of
the support of many of his firmest friends, who warned
him not to do so, supported the grant. He thought
the measure a just one, and that it would tend to
conciliate Ireland. He thought it a st pin the right
direction, and was grieved that it had been met
with such bitter 'opposition, and that it had been connected
with the question of Sate Church endowments. He felt de-
lighted to hear the Right Hon. Baronet say that. Ireland was to
be conciliates by kindness, and not to be ruled by force. He
was distressed to witness the feelines which this measure had
given rise to—thousands of men banded together from hatred
of Popery and hat. ed of Papists— but he trusted this feeline
would speedily subside, and that a better feeling would spring
up between the people of both countries.
Mr. HUME stated that he expressed his opinion bef -re in
that House. that this was merely an educational greet, arid
riot an endowment of the- Catholic Church. It was on that
ground he supported the measure Tey voted away annually
a sum of money to make up the siaries of ele, gyman in Scot-
land e hose m-ant were under 1801. a year ; and in the same
manner they voted money to the bishops. deans. rind all
grades of clergymen of the Establise, t Church. There was
not, however, in the Bill before the House a single word to
endow the clergy of the Catholic Church. There was one
point to which he would now allude. He should like
to see a mixture of all classes—clergy and laity—
in that establishment—( dear).— and he thought it would
be of great importance if that could lee effected. He thought,
that as they expected allegiance f tint all classes they were
bound to extend to all the advantages of a moral and reli-
gious education. He regretted that some of his constituents
differed with him. lie hal received communications from the
Wesleyan Methodists and other I essere era, remonstrating weli
him on the line of conduct he had adopted mi that question.
but he had received none from the members of the Established
Church. He thought this the more strange on the part a the
Dissenters, for at the time the Test and Corporation Acts were
under consideration, the Roman Catholics came forward to
assist them to obtain that liberty of conscience for which they
were then contending. He regretted therefore to see those very
persons who had so much benefited by those exertions now
come forward to exhibit so much ingratitude. He thought the
Honourable Baronet ( Sir Robert Inglis) who had headed the
Opposition to this measure. and of these who followed him,
would have the tendency to call public attention to the enor-
mous wealth of the Establishment. and to the necessity or de-
voting it to educating the people at large. He would giv t his
most cordial support. to the measure through all its stages.
Sir ROBERT PEEL apprehended that there was nothing
in the former acts relating to elaynooth, imposing on the State
the necessity of providing exclusive religious education ; and if
there had been, the Cath eies writ, not respenstble for it. for when
in 1795 a proposal was made to establish a colleee, Mr.
Grattan presented a petition from the Ro nan Catholics against
its exclusive character—that it should be an instittitton for
the education of Protestants as well as Catholics—but the Go-
vernment expressly stated that it should be devoted solely to
the education of the Catholic priesthood. There was no de-
sire, therefore, on the part of the CatholiCs to make it an
exclusive institution, and there was nothing in the 'ems
relating to it to make it so ; but he was bound to sty that, in
point of fact, it had become so. But before they should con-
demn it on this account, he begged them to read a letter or
Mr. Burke's, written by that gentleman in 1795.—(The Right
Hon. Gentleman then read the letter, in which the writer
stated his conviction that the institution should be exclus.vely
confined to the education of the priesthood.) Now that was
the opinion of Mr. Burke, who was for making it an exclusive
institution, not only so far as regarded Catholics, but also the
priesthood of that body. As he stated before, there was no-
thing new now proposed. There was nothing in the Acts
which necessarily made it an exclusive ins itution ; but he
must own, on reading the opinion of Mr. Burke in its favour,
he thoueht that. his opinions were entitled to every respect.
Mr. HINDLEY repelled the charge of ingratitude made
against the Dissenters on this occasion, for the very year
after the time alluded to by the Hon. Gentleman (Mr. Huese),
they manfully came forward to assist in removing the Catholic
disabilities. But their opposition to this measure was based
on very different grounds. They considered it—and he must
say that it was his opinion also—that it was the initiative
step in the endowment of the Catholic Church, and to this
alone was to be attributed their opposition. They had one
Church already endowed, and he wished to know why they en-
dowed it. Was it because it possessed the truth? If they
had a secular power to tell what was truth and what was not,
he would bow to its authority. But he wished to know where
this power resided, Was it in the Lord flieh Chancellor of
England, or in the Archbishop of Canterbury ? If that was
not the reason why they endowed it, perhaps they did so
because it was the Church of the maj .city. If that were the
reason, why did they not apply that principle in Ireland ?
The Honourable Gentleman then proceeded to show the
superiority of the voluntary principle, and stated, that
in the case of the London Missionary Society for the
conversion of the heathen, there was subscribed during the first
10 years of its exi-tence no le s a sum than 47,000/. ; in the
second 10 years, 67,000/, ; in the third 10 years, 280,0001. ;
in the fourth 10 years, 407,000/. ; in the fifth 10 years,
800,0'10/. ; and during the last year the Wesleyan elethoeists
subscribed for the same purpose 105,000/. ; and of that sum
1,200/. was subscribed by the emancipated slaves in Jamaica.
--(Hear.) He might go through a great deal of statistics on
the subject, but as the House had indulged him so much, he
would not detain them any longer.—(Cries or " Divide,

THE BLOCKADE OF THE POR I'ENDIC.
On our being admitted to the gallery, we found
Lord PALMERSTON on his legs, addressing the House
with reference to the blockade of Portendie. He wished to
ask the Right Hon. Baronet at the head of the Government,
whether it was intended to lay before the House the papers re-
lating to that subject.?
Sir R. PEEL had no objection to lay all the papers and
correspondence referring to this subject before the House,
shortly after the recess.
CASE OF LIEUTENANT BRIDGE.
Captain PECHELL wished to call the attention of the Gal-
lant Admiral opposite to a circumstance which had appeared in
the public prints, and which was viewed with considerable in-
terest in the profession to which he had the honour to beiong.
Lieut. Bridge, et the Cormorant, it was alleged, had violated
the 23d article of war, which related to disrespect to the supe-
rior officer, and be was tried by Court-martial for the offence,
the captain appearing as a member of that court. He wished
to know whether the Admiralty considered these proceedings
regular, arid if they did not, whether any steps had been taken
to compensate Lieut. Bridge for his undeserved calamities?
Admiral COCK BU it N, who spoke in so low a tone as to be
heard with difficulty, was understood to say that the Admiral, y
had yet taken no steps, but that the great probability was, that
that officer would agate be restored to the service of his
country.
Captain PECHELL said the Gal:ant Admiral had not yet
answered his question. He wished to know if the proceedings
of that Court-martial were considered regular by the Board of
Admiralty ?

Mr. CORRY proposed a vote of 610,545/. for the victualling,

ENSLAVEMENT OF BRITISH SUBJECTS.
Lord PALNIERSTON wished to notice certain returns,
books, and papers for the years 1835, 18:j6, 1839, and 1841,
and relating to the landing of slaves in the Havannah, in
Cuba, and in other of the islands and on the coast of South
America. He saw by reports from Cuba, the Brazils, and the
coast of Africa that the slave-irade was undoubtedly on the
increase. That was the distinct statement from these places.
In Cuba and in Surinam there were considerable numbers of
negroes who had been at different periods brougert truest the
British colones to Surinam and ether parts of the. Dutch pos-
sessions, and sold as slaves. They had been brought off before
the Act of Emancipation had been passes:. They were new in
slavery, whereas if they had been left in the British colonies
they would haver been - included - in the Act of Emancipation.
Their case was brought under the consideration of the Go-
vernment, to which he t, Lord Palmerston s belonged. They
thought it was the duty of the Government to en-
deavour {to procure the liberty of those parties..—

( Hear, hear.) The present Government. be was sorry
to find, had taken a different view of the mat er, as he
mule see from a dispatch by the Earl of Aberdeen to the
Comminetiner, to this effect—that the Government had under-
steoil t has certain iwgroes from Itarbadoes were held in slavery
in Surinam ; hut that it was the epinion of the Queen's Ac's
vorate that Her Majesty's Government were not called on te
take .ceps in regard to those negroes, as they clearly were not
freemen, either by birth or by the benefits of the Aet of
