Last might the Roman Catholic Relief Bill was read
a second time in the House of Commons, after a long
debate, which did not close until three o'clock this
morning. The second reading was carried, by a ma-
jority of 27, in the fullest House which we lielieve ever
divided on this question,no less than 609 Members having
been present. In 1813, -Mr. GaArrAn's Bill, which
was afterwards lost in the Committee, was read a
second time by a majority of 42, in a House consist-
ing of 448 Members. In 1321, Mr. PLUNKETT'S Bill
passed the second reading in consequence of a 'majority
4.11, %ina-House of 497 Members ; and was read a
third time and pasted, by a majority of 19, in a House
of 413 Members. It was afterwards thrown out in the
Lards, by a majority of 39 out of 279 voters. Mr.
GOULBURN resumed his arguments against the Bill, and
was followed by Lord BINNING, in favour of the measure.
Mr. Secretary CANNING, in a splendid speech, which
was frequently interrupted by loud cheers, contended
in favour of the Bill : the Right Hon. Gentleman
was followed by. Mr. Secretary Past., who took a
•firm stand against all innovation on the British Con-
stitution, which he contended the proposed Bill would
be. Mr. BROUGHAM said he had been so completely
anticipated by .the speech of Mr. Secretary CANNING,
that he should make few observations on the subject ;
and the House getting impatient, divided on the second
teading, when the numbers were as we have stated.
