philanthropy of England on this subject, observed, " I am
not the advocate of. England, nor does the British Govern-
*ment, DOW at the head of the civilization of the world, need
my praises or my defence : public acts of sincere philan-
thropy and-love of liberty serve as unquestionable advocates
of the glory of England."
• At the conclusion of the debate,' the Pi e3ident having
put the question, the opinion of the Committee that the
Minister should receive for answer that they had received
the communication (vie a Camara flea inteirada) was
rejected, and au amendment adopted, to the effect that there
should be oo debate on the treaty, and that it should be
reserved for a suitable time.

It is not true, as stated by a Correspondent at
Hastings, that Mr. PLANTA made an excursion
from that place to Boulogne on Wednesday
sennight. The article was copied by us from
the New Times.

His Majesty's shiii Tyne,' one of the Experi-
mental Squadron, put back to Spithead yesterday.

We .regret, to find, in Mr. SHIELL'S late
speech at the Catholic Association Meeting, a
spirit, if not hostile, at least injurious to the
cause he would wish to befriend. He assumes
'throughout an intemperate—even a dictatorial
tone ; :talks condescendingly of his reliance on
Lords GODERICH, LANSDOWNE and the ma-
jority of the 'present Administration ; but, as
if this were a humiliating concession, neutralizes
it by what he calls his superior confidence
in seven millions of.. indoinitable Catholics.
Now, we would ask Mr. SHIELL (for whoa
talent energy and patriotism we profess a due
respect), whether such equivocal language—an
'adulterated mixture of humility and bravado--
can possibly advance the cause of Emancipation ?
whether, in fact, it is not far more likely to impede
it ? It is -not by an appeal to the fears, but to
the good feeling of Englishmen, that the Catholics
can hope to make headway." They must not
come before us with a request in one hand and a
sword in- the other—they must not say " we
will extort Emancipation from your timidity,"
but « we will win it from your sense of
justice—your gratitude--your liberality. .We
will appeal, in short, to your sympathies as
men, to your good faith as allies, to your charity
.as Christians.". Let this be their style of re-
quest, let this be their rule of conduct, and the
result) we venture to say, • will justify their
proudest expectations. But if Mr. SHEILL'
language were indiscreet at any time, how much
more so must it be at the present crisis, when his
favourite and engrossing object is making such
rapid strides towards fulfillment. It could
scarcely be justified, were even the Tories
In full power ; is it to he tolerated then when
the bigots are removed ? The Catholics have
never yet advanced an inch towards Emanci-
pation except by the respect their firmness and
good conduct have extorted from their English
Allies. We have been hitherto led to suppose
that their cause was the cause of conscientiousness
•anlnecessity: of conscientiousness, in the minds of
OloSe who embraced it, of necessity With regard
to the national tranquillity. When, however,
we find Messieurs O'CONNELL and SHIVA.,
their avowed leaders—the one complaining of his
extreme difficulty in collecting the necessary sub-
- lidies, anti thence deducing the indifference of
his party towards Emancipation—the other
Professing confidence in those whom he has
u,epraised for year yet strangely qualifying such
...(I)nfidence with a threat; how can we be other-
wise than distrustful of Catholic sincerity ? But
l‘ir• SHEILL perhaps reasons only from himself.
"rie speaks not the spirit of seven millions. Even in
this case his language is indiscreet, for " (pie-
"id delirant regen plectuntur Achivi," and
mostri assuredly (in England at least) will the
Catholics be held responsible for the temperate
°l* intemperate conduct of their leaders. If
"Ir. SHIELL, be really anxious to make England
the friend of Emancipation, let him come before
her with the spirit of a man, clothed in the lan-
ga.ume of friendship add of justice ; let him avoid
abject Nycopbancy
perate bravado
on the one hand, and intem-
breathe peace on, but fin ss
the other. Let his' words
n.ne
evince the pride of a • his deportment
sity of a high n injured, but the genero-
"minded nation. Let this be his
conduct, and he win
,he must be successful.
