SEFAHATION FROM THE BRITISH CATHOLICS

Mr. O'CONNELL, M.P.—That we shall be emancipated
this session of Parliament is quite certain, and the only
question that we have now to consider is, how that eman-
cipation shall take place. I have been told that the Bill
will be accompanied with an Act for the suppression of
this Association. If this be true, I can only assure tLe
Minister, he never framed a more absurd, useless, or super-
fluous Act. (Hear.) Let him but emancipate the Catholics,
anj that instant he pronounces our funeral dirge. (Cheers.)
On the next day, I'll propose a resolation, to the effect
that the moment we are emancipated, this body ceases to
exist. I say emancipated, simply, because, nothing but
full, free, and unqualified emancipation man de, or ever shall
do. The next fact I shall state, is one thatmust give you
all pleasure, and it is this, that what decided the Cabinet
is the meeting at the Rotunda.—(Loud cheers.)--We
shall enter into no bargains—we will make no base traffic.
All we look for is freedom, and freedom we must get, and
that without sacrificing the freedom of the brave and
disinterested freeholders, who fought and won the battle;
whose votes are the most honourable, because they are
honest ; and whose affections are the more cheering, ho-
cause they are upright, pure, and unpurchaseable. (Cheers.)
know nothing so very unfortunate as the conduct of the
British Catholics.—(hear, hear, bear). Their conduct is
unfortunate 'in its operation—miechievous in Its tendency
—contemptible iu its essence—calamitous in its effects.
The British Catholics had the meanness to fling them-
selves at the feet ofthe " Great Captain," and in the act of
supplicating for emancipation, to speak of, and, as if, to court
" securities." If these wretched clogs be introduced at all
we may attribute them to our unfortunate connection with
the British Catholics. It was a moat infelicitous connection,
and the sooner it is frittered asunder the better. (Cheers.)
A correspondence which has taken place between Dr.
Baines and Mr. Wilmot Horton is now published, in which
the Doctor denies that the Pope had given the verbal an-
swer I had stated. Dr. Baines is an able ecclesiastic, an
enlightened prelate--a polisheri gentleman—and a roost re-
spectable man; but I assure you I had ray information
frem as good a Bishop—as virtuous an ecclesiastic—as ac-
complished a scholar—as pious and sincere a Christian—
and as devoted and ardent a patriot, as any other Bishop
in the land.—(Cheers.)—Upon this authority I bad stated
the fact—on the same authority I re-assert it—and on this
authority I implicitly rely.—(Loud cheers.)
