TUESDAY EVENING, MARCH 31, 1829.

The Roman Catholic Relief B:11 was last night

The Commons of England have thus done their duty

they have performed the great—the last act 01

justice which alone was wanting to heal up the

wounds of a generous people, and impart vigour
and unity to the Government of the country.
Nothing could be more triumphant than tl e

manner in which this virtuous measure was carried

:hrougb. So soon as the Bill was passed a number

of Gentlemen, without reference to party fee

ngs, went up to Mr. PEEL and congratulated

him upon the glorious success of his labours

justice, we will here give that part of Mr. PEEL'S
speech which places his scrupulous consistency in so
amiable a light :
"As I have disposed of this point, and as the Hon.
Gentleman as alluded to me, I feel myself bound to ad.
vert to the points mentioned by the Hon. Gentleman. I
must first say that no person could have been so much sur-
prised, I may say astonished, as I was, at the speech the
Hon. Gentleman made from this bench. I cannot express,
indeed, the surprise, the astonishment, that speech ex-
cited in me. Sir, up to that hour no person heard of the
intention of the Hon. Gentleman to make a speech, and
no person heard of the indignation by which the Honour-
able Gentleman says he was actuated, nor of the daggers
from the political antipathy of the Catholics to which
he they alluded.—( Hear, hear.)—Sir, I will narrate
facts. The Honourable Gentleman has informed the
House correctly that a communication was made to
him seven days before the meeting of Parliament, of
the intentions of the Government as to this Bill. But
why was the communication made? The Honourable
Gentleman was no confidential adviser of the Crown.
We were not bound to ask his opinion as to the course
of policy we meant to pursue.—(Hear, hear, hear.)—
We had merely to resort to his assistance, not for ad-
vice as to the course we meant to pursue, but for his
legal assistance in framing the measures we intended to
submit to Parliament. The House would suppose,
when this communication was made to the Honourable
Gentleman, that he had declared that he could not
assist to draw the Bill, and that he could not sup-
port the principle of the measure ; but the Honourable
Gentleman said nothing whatever by which it could
be inferred that he did not acquiesce in the measure.—
[Sir Charles Wetherell here interrupted Mr. Peel,
but what he said was not heard in the Gallery.l—l
am bound to add, Sir, that the Honourable Gentleman
did assist in drawing the Bill for the Suppression of the
Catholic Association. We thought it was not fair to ask
his assistance in drawing the Bill to put down the Catho-
lic Association, without communicating to the Hon.
Gentleman the whole intentions of the Government, as far
as the principle of the measure was concerned. The Hon.
Gentleman made no objections, he assisted in drawing the
Bill to suppress the Catholic Association. He did more.
He assisted us with his legal advice in drawing up the
present Bill, both as respects the law of endowments and
or ecclesiastical charities. It was not until the 23d lof
February that the Hon. Gentleman expressed any opi-
nion against the measure, or any determination not
to draw the Bill. But Parliament met on the sth
of February.—(Hear, hear, hear.)—The intentions of
the Government were communicated to the Hon. Gentle-
man seven days before the meeting of Parliament; he
assisted in drawing the Bill for suppressing the Catholic
Association ; he assisted us with his advice, his endow-
ments, and superstitious uses in this Bill, and never during
that time expressed any doubt of the general policy of the
measure. When the time came that it was necessary for
my Noble Friend, who had given notice that the measure
would be submitted to Parliament on the sth March, that
all the details of the measure should be prepared—for
about the principle we had previously agreed—when it be-
came necessary that my Noble Friend should on February
22, ask the Hon. Gentleman to prepare the Bill, is there
any man who heard the speech of the Hon. Gentleman the
other evening, who would not suppose that the Hon
Gentleman displayed his indignation, and answered, " I
foresee danger to my country from the measure, and I have
sworn an oath which will not allow me to assist you?"—
Sir, the Hon. Gentleman did no such thing. (Sir C.
Wetherell was understood to say, that he did.)--
The Hon. Gentleman has referred to the date of the com-
munication made to him, to prefer his charge against me—
(Hear, hear)—and I must state facts in opposition to those
charges. It was not until the night when the Hon. Gen-
tleman made his speech, that any Member of the Govern-
ment knew or thought that it was repugnant to the oath
the Hon. Gentleman had taken as Attorney-General, to
draw the Bill. The Hon. Gentleman only told my
Noble Friend that he could not give his individual sup-
port to Catholic Emancipation.—(Cheers.)--That was
the amount of the intimation he made.—(Cheers.)—Here,
however, as a servant of the Crown—as King's Attorney-
General—he continued to hold office, for the purpose of
founding charges against the Bill. This surprised me
in the Attorney- General.—(Cheers.)--These were the

facts. 'The Honourable Gentleman, he must say, was not
warranted in any such conduct; he held the office of At-
torney •General ; he had not signified any intention of re-
signing, and he was not, I must say, warranted in stating,
at that period, the confidential communication which, as
one of the law advisers of the Crown, had been made to
him, and on that lie formed charges against the Govern-
ment under which he held office."

After reading this let the Honourable Member
for Plympton go and dine with Lord ELDON with
what appetite he may.
The Bill was read a third time and passed by 320
to 142—leaving a majority of 178.

The intelligence received from Smyrna of the
20th ult. gives some insight into the new measures
of the Russian squadron in the neighbourhood of
Candia, and has occasioned no ordinary surprise to
the English and French Commanders i►► those seas ;
and the expected blockade of tl►e ports of that
island shew evidently a determination on the part of
Russia not to be satisfied with the blockade of the
Dardanelles.

LAW INTELLIGENCE.-(THIS DAY.)

COURT OF CHANCERY.

The LORD CHANCELLOR was occupied the whole of the
day with hearing cause-petitions, many of which were

Counsel, and the indisposition of Mr. Sugden. Otber4
involved questions relative to the Charities, possessing no
points of public importance.

German Papers were received this morning, but
they contain no news of any Interest.
