CATHOLIC EAI A NCIPA 110,V.

..

The following k an official copy of Sir F. BURDITT'S
Resolutions.

1. That it appears to this Committee, that by certain Acts passed
in the Parliaments of Great Britain and Ireland respectively,
certain declarations and affirmations are required to be snide, as
qualifications for the enjoyment of certain offices, franchises, and
civil rights therein mentioned.
2. That such parts of the said oaths as require a declaration to
be made against the belief of transubstantiation, or that the invoca-
tion or adoration of the Virgin Mary, or any other Saint, and the
sacrifice of the Masai as used in the Church of Rome, are supersti-
tious and idolatrous, appear to this Committee to relate to opinions
merely speculative and dogmatical, not affecting the allegiance or
civil duty of the subject, and that the same may therefore safely
be repealed.
3. That it appears to this Committee, that in several Acts passed
in the Parliaments of Great Britain and Ireland respectively, a
certain Oath, commonly called the Oath of Supremacy, is re-
quired to be taken as a qualification for the enjoyment of certain
offices, franchises, and civil rights, therein mentioned.
4. That in the said oath aid•declaration is contained, that no fo-
reign Prince, Person, Prelate, State, or Potentate, ought to have
any jurisdiction, power, pre-eminence, or authority, ecclesiastical or
ariaritual, within these realms.
5. That it appears to this Committee, that scruples are enter-
tained by his Majesty's Roman Catholic subjects, with respect to'
taking the said oath, merely on account of the word " spiritual"
being inserted therein ; and that for the purpose of removing such
scruples, it would be expedient to declare the sense in which the
said word is used, according to the injunction issued by Queen
;!:;:ttolt. in the first year of her reign, and recognized in the Act
of the fifth Of her reign, ,"d which, as explained by the 57th of the
Articles of the Church of England, Imports Lnerely, that the
Kings of t►is realm should govern all estates and degrees cylninitted
to their charge by Gon, whether they be ecclesiastical or temporal,
and restrain with the civil sword the stubbcrn and evil doer.

6. Thant is tin opinion of this Conuniuee, that such act of re-
weal and explanation should be accompanied with such exceptions
and regulations as may be found necessary for preserving unalter-
ably the Protestant succession to the Crown, according to the Act
for the further limitation of the Crown, and better securing the
rights and liberties of the subject, and for maintaining inviolate the
Protestant Epi.copal Church of England and Ireland, and the doc-
trine, government, and discipline thereof; and the Church of Scot-
laud. and the doctrine, worship, government, and discipline thereof
as the same are by law respectively established.

Mr. CARRUTHERS, a Scotch Missionary in the Crimea,
has been the instrument of converting a number of
Tartars, who intend forming themselves into a distinct
colony. A Scheik has also embraced Chri►tianiy. and
is studying, that he may take orders, and second the
efforts of the Missionaries.

The late Mr. Simco, the antiquarian book.eller, be-
queathed his valuable collection of prints, &c. to the
British Museum, upon condition of the Trustees paying
his family 5001. which the latter declined doing, con-
ceilillg them to be overvalued. They have since, how-'
ever, been sold by auction for upwards of 9001.
The Gamekeeper of the Honourable FREDERICK
WEST, having shot a hare one day last week, near
Denbigh, carried it home, a considerable distance, be-
fore he thought of removing the entrails; when be
proceeded to perform this duty, the first object present-
ing itself, to his great surprise, was a young leveret,
quite alive, and so far capable of imbibing nourishment,
from milk and other food, as to insure its perfect re-
covery, although, upon examination, it bad received
one of the grains of shot which had deprived the little
animal of its parent.
Last week an accident occurred, which had nearly
proved fatal to Lord .1 .:ORRINGTON. His Lordship was
leaving his seat (Yote's Court) in a gig, when the horse
was startled by a passing waggon. The horse of the
gig ran upon a heap of stones, and threw his Lordship-
out, and the wheel crushed his hat and tore it from his
head. Fortunately, the wagoner stopped his horses in
time, or from the situation an which Lord TORRINGTON
was thrown, the wheels must have put a period to his
Lordship's existence.

A general 46 strike," as it is termed, has recently taken
place in Maidstone among the journeymen mechanics.
The carpenters have obtained an increase in their wages
from 225. per week to 245. the plumbers from 225. to
245. Thee are the wages to which they were reduCed
in the late period of low prices: The bricklayers ask
for an increase of from 245. to 275. The sawyess who
work by the piece and receive Ss. per 100 feet for firs
require Ss. 6.1. and from 4s. for oak to 4s. 6d. and 6d.
per dozen on 12 feet deals, and for all other deals ac.
cordingly. In the case of.thesawyers, the masters re.
tune to accede to the demands of the journeymen. The
pa per-makers have obtained an advance. The alleged
ground for the 66 sts ike" is the great rise in the pries of
the necessaries of life.
It has been justly observed, that a greater number
of extraordinary Cures, performed by Mr. LlMiesel Anthcarbude
Drops, are made public, thins by all other IPrepiriesery Medicines,
put together. What renders this fact the aels laurelling Is, that
Mr. L. never publishes any Case without meth* the r?el earns and

run KING V. STRWART-s—Tllll KING V. sorzWANT
ANOTHIR.
These were indictments, one against the mulatto ter-
giant of Mrs. Storer,
,a lady of fortune, residing at.
Purley, and the other against the same defendant and
the Lady herself, for assaults on Philip Thompson, a
black, 19 years of age, whom Mrs. Storer had bought
in •Jamaica as a slave, and whom she bad made free by
bringing to England. The cause against Mrs. Stbrer
was first in point of time ' • but the records being brought
down and.entered by thedefendants, they chose first to
try that agaidintewart alone.
Philip Thompson, the black, gave the following ac-
Count of the transaction :—On the 15th of August, at
-he was cleaqing knives in the kitchen, two at a time,
Stewart desired him not to do so, as he would.let them
dill. He gave an impertinent answer, on which Stewart
struck him in the face. Thompson " hit again," and
Stewart struck him a second time, and aimed a third
blow, which the boy warded off by the knife he held,
which cut Stewart's hand. The defendant, after smear-
ing the blood over the lad's face, left the kitchen, but
returning in a few minutes, collared him, took him to
a potatoe cellar, and locked him in. There he was com-
pelled to pass the night, with a blanket and carpet to
sleep on, and at five o clock in the morning, was brought
out by Stewart to be flogged in the stable, he having
procured a hunting whip for the purpose. The lad
was desired to strip off his jacket and waistcoat, and
having done so, and seeing Stewart take out a cord to
tie him; slipped out of the stable. Stewart followed,
seized him, dragged him along the ground, and at last
shut him up in another stable. From this place, before
any farther iaflictiou, he made his escape and came to
Reading, where his case was taken up by an attorney,
and he obtained a situation in a Gentleman's family.
This statement was, in most of its parts, corroborated
by Sarah Brown, then in Mrs. Storer's service; but she
differed from Thompson in some particulars, and added
that a message was delivered, as from Mrs. Storer,
directing the punishment.
The Jury returned a verdict of Guilty.
In the next case, where Mrs. Storer was defendant
with Stewart, Thompson complained of an assault,
about a month before he left Purley. He stated that,
not being up in time to scour the lobby, Mrs. Storer
ordered him to he taken out and well flogged, and she
would see it done. Stewart then took him into the
stable-yard, Mrs. Storer following, and ordered him to
take off his coat and waistcoat, and strip down his shirt
to the waist. This being done, S;e:vart proceeded to
flog him with a postillion's whip ; and when he had
given him about a dozen lashes, Mrs. Storer saide
Well done, Robert, give him twice as much. 9 The
blood ran down into his trowsers, and over his shirt,
and he was rendered unable to lie down by the effect
of the flogging.
Mr.J axon expressed great indignation at this charge,
which he declared utterly false, and to rebut it, called
the laundress of the family, who swore that no blood
ever was seen on the prosecutor's linen; the postillion,
who asserted that no flogging took place, to his know-
ledge ; and the governess of Mrs. Stoter's children, and
other Ladies, who gave her an excellent character for
humanity, and one of whom thought she was kinder to
her black, than to her white servants, awl especially to
Thompson. -
In reply, a former coachman of the Lady was called, who dated
that Mrs. Pope, one of the laundresses, had seen the lad flogged;
and had spoke of him as ill-treated.
The Jury found both defendants Nut Guilty.
HERTFORD, MARCH 1.
The Lent Assizes for this County commenced here
to-day, before Lord Chief Baron ALEXANDER and Mr.
Baron GRAHAM. The causes entered for trial on the
Civil side are ten in number. The gaol calendar con-
tains the names of forty-five prisoners, few of whom are
charged with capital offences.
John Hollingsworth was indicted for stealing-at Ther-
field, on the Bth November, 55 sheep and 17 lambs, the
property of William Beale.
The prisoner said nothing in his defence. He had
been a servant in the employment of Mr. Free, of Ther-
field, and up to the 6th of Nov. when he was discharged,
had conducted himself well.
The Jury, under the Learned JUDOS'S directions, found the pri-
soner Guilty. Sentence of death was passed upon him, and it is
expected he will be left for execution.
NEWCASTLE-UPON-TYNE, FEBRUARY SS.
William Walton, on being arraigned for stealing a
silver watch, above the value of 40s. from a dwelling-
house, pleaded' Guilty.
Mr. Justice Barxxv.—ln this case I would advise you not to
plead guilty, because it is a capital offence.
Prisoner.—My Lord, I think a public offence demands a public
confession.
Mr. Justice asvxxv.—l would advise you not to plead guilty,
because circumstances may not be made out in the evidence to sup-
port this charge.
Prisoner.—My Lord, I know I am guilty.
Mr. Justice lityLer.—lf you will still plead guilty, then I would
recommend you to retract yobr plea of guilty to the capital offence,
and simply plead guilty of stealing.
Prisoner.—What does the capital offence mean, my Lord?
Mr. Justice BavLsr.—The capital offence is dealing above the
value of 40s. in a dwelling-house.
Prisoner.—My Lord, I know the watch was above the value of
40$. and if I was to die to-morrow I would plead guilty in the sight
of GOD and man.
No sentence was passed on account of his previous
good conduct. His Lordship said he should recom-
mend him to his Majesty's merciful consideration, and
his punishment would ve a slight one.
WItIiIIORELAND &NINO Asetzts.Thtirsday, after
Sir G. S. lIOLRoYD, Knt. had attended 'Divine Ser.
vice, at Appleby, his Lordship proceeded to the Court,
and the Judge being seated, proclamation was made,
and the commission opened. After some private con-
versation, betvieen the Judge and Under Sheriff, his
Lordship rose and addressed the Gentlemen summoned
an the Grand Jury; stating, that as the Under Sheriff
had received no deputation from the -successor to the
late Earl of Thanet, no Assize could be held ; that,
although the Shrievalty was hereditary, yet, according
to Act of Parliament, it was necessary that he deputa-
tion to the Under Sheriff should be renewed, ' • that in
other counties, in case of a demise of a Sheriff, the de-
fect was mare easily remedied; that in this case, au-
thority had been sought for, but that nothing had
appeared to invalidate the Act, therefore the Grand
Jury could neither be sworn nor act, and that conse-
quently, the Court must be adjourned to ten o'clock,
the following day, in hopes that the deputation might
arrive; but should this not be the case, then the Assizes
must be adjourned to a future period. The Court was
adjourned to Friday, and afterwards .to Saturday, to
await the return of the deputation.

The Assizes opened at Winchester on TuesdaT, but
the causes tiled were destitute of interest. There are
about twenty-one causes for trial.
