ASH WEDHEspAT.--kloOday ;t the Sot* gschanu.

By a Majority of FORTY it was decided last night
in the House of Commons, that the claims of the
Catholics to a participation in all therm rights which
belong to the citizens of a free country, should be
referred to a Committee. This decision will be hailed
by every enlightened mind, as a proof of the progress
of reason and common sense throughout the whole
community. Let the same temper avid moderation
prevail in the future discussions on this important
topic, which have marked the present, and the result
will be cordiality and union throughout the Empire.
The repeal of all the remaining disqualifying statutes
which exclude Dissenters from any of the common
rights of citizens, is all that will then be wanting, to
secure the effectual and triumphant co-operation of
the irresistible energies of a free and happy People,
in defence of our common country and common
privileges.
THE PRINCESS OF WALES.--LaSt night the SPEAKER
of the House of Commons read a Letter from her
Royal Highness, demanding a fair and open trial,
by impartial Judges, known to the Coniaitwion, up an
any criminal charges that may have been alleged
against her. The utmost silence prevailed dui ing
the reading of the Letter, which was followed by a
solemn and awful pause, till Mr. WHITBREAD rose.
An official copy of the Letter is given in its proper
place, to which we must refer our Readers.

A Proclamation in the French language, purport-
'lag to be signed by Louts XVIII. is said to be in
the press, dated from Hanwell, the Ist of Febru-
ary, and containing an animated invitation to the
French People to throw off the yoke under which
they have so long grouted, and to re-establish the
Family of the Boor Boss an the Throng of their 4-
chars.
