The Per. RICHARD LLOYD, A.M. Vicar, in the Chair.
The tolloWitig, among other Resolutions, 'passed unani-
ilbaustv
. . ,
1---That the British Constitution and Goreroment are
and fundamentally Protestant, arid the Protestant
tfttligion forms the great security of the public happiness and
'Welfare of this Country`, as establi'shed and Secured by a so-
"in Nation:ll COtnpact at the period of the Revolution,
'mod by. the Acts, :of -the I,egislature which happily, settled
lbe Crown of these Realms upon his Nlejesty's August
Family.

24•—That being sensible of the Religions anti Political bless-
'
; Its enjoyed under the sway of the Royal House of Bruns-
'94ol) and convinced, that upon the maintenance of that
‘e°,llpact and of those Acts of Settlement, " the safety of his
.111tjesty's person and Government—the continuance of the
.I,donarehy of England—the preservation of 'the Protestant
Rrlrgion in all its integrity—the maintenance of the Church
6r England, as by Law established—the security of the an
tent and undoubted Rights and Liberties—and the Mule
Peace and tranquillity of this Kingdom, do (under God) en-
tirelY depend," this Meeting is filled with alarm when the
_least attempt is made to abrogate any'of the Laws, •or sub-
vert any of the'securities, by which those inestimable privi-
leges are held.
a•--That by the wise policy of our Ancestors, Roman Ca-
-Tholiei were excluded from bearing certain offices, and from
the Legislature and Councils of the Nation, and by Stat. 30,
it was enacted, " that no Peer of the Realm, or
If ember of the House of Commons, should vote or sit in
• Parliament until he should take the oaths of Allegiance and
Supremacy, and make, subscribe, and audibly repeat the
Declaration against Transubstantiatio'n and Popery."
4.--• That this Meeting has been inforrited, and believes,
that a Bill has been brought into Parliament, and is now in
Sil'grells, in which it is proposed, that " the Declaration
.against Transubstantiation," required by the Statute 25th
-"lades 11. and " the Declaration against Transubstantia-
ti°n and 13,/Teri," required by the Statute 30th Charles
mall no longer be required to be taken as a qualification for
Ills
ally office or place of trust from his Majesty, or under
;I'6 Authority, or fur sitting or voting in either House of
an' liatuent ; provided that nothing therein should dispense
7 Pez'soll front taking the Oaths of Allegiance or Supre-
inacy.
S.
an a oat although the said Declarations against Transub-
tiati" and Popery contain only a renunciation of cer•
-4._in°Pinions entertained by Roman Catholics, yet they form,
the opinion of this Meeting', the principal Test by which
°
mart Catholics are 'to he ascertained, and without which
the Oaths of Allegiance and Supremacy are not sufficient to
**elude Roman Catholics front Parliament, and from s;tna-
itti°na of Political Power, especially at the present time, when
is a notorious fact that the Sovereign Pontiff, so lately as
the year 1809, by a soknin Instruction to the Prelates of his
____urch, commanded them to distinguish between the passive
withs which may be takers, and the active oaths which may
Ant betaken, by the Roman Catholics of any Heretical State,
and delared that all oaths taken to the prejudice of the
Cburch are null and void.
That a Petition ber presented from this Parish to the
ll u e of Lords, and also to the House of Commons, if
rte-
te ry, praying that the said Bill may not pass into a Law.
--That the Petition now read be adopted, and that these
I,4teesol;i
.tions, or an Abridgment of them, be advertised in Se -
a.tl the Daily Papers.
That the Thanks of this Meeting be presented to Mr.
