" REQUISITION.

" We, the undersigned, had trusted that no Public Meet-
ing would be necessary on the present occasion, in regard
to the important questions which are now under the con-
sideration of Parliament; but, observing that signatures
are now solicited by advertisement to a petition against the
Roman Catholic claims, think it our duty to intimate, that
a Public Meeting of those who are favourable to these
claims, will he held in the Assembly Rooms, George-street,
on Saturday next, the 14th instant, at twelve o'clock, for
the purpose of adopting and giving authority to forward
petitions, praying both Houses of Parliament to strengthen
the Protestant cause, by removing those disabilities from
the Roman Catholics of these realms which have hitherto
given them the advantage of justly representing themselves
as members of a persecuted Church, and have thus main-
tatned a spirit of disunion which threatens every hoar
more nearly the tranquillity and safety of the empire at
large.
