CATHOLIC CLAIMS.

request wl;icli liai hen made by the Right Hon.'
Baronet and the-Right Hon. Gentleman, be to
offer a few words in reply to the Hon. Meither4bla.
had last spoken. He.was quite sure that if he were
to bring forward a motion on that subject to which
his remarks had been directed, that it would be con-
ducted with ability and temper, and if he would do
so with respect to anything which he (Mr. Plunkett),
from a sense of public duty had thought it right-to
do, he should not shrink from giving the earliest pos-
sible explanation of his conduct. With respect to the
question which had been asked, it placed him not in
a situation of embarrassment, for he had no difficulty
in deciding what course he ought to take ; but it placed
him in a situation which made it necessary that he
should apologi:e to many who had come thus early
to town, considering it their duty to attend in conse-
quence of the notice which he had given on that mo-
mentous occasion, which had been understood to be,
at hand—(Hear).—There was no reluctance on his'
part to bring the question forward on the Jay for
which it had been fixed—it was not with a view to
his own personal convenience that he acquiesced in
the request which had just been maic--(llear).
But he could not be so rash as to risk injuring a
question of so much importance, by bringing it for-
ward at a moment which was considered to he so
very unfavourable. His opinion concurred with that
expressed by the Right Hon. Gentleman and the
Right Hon. Baronet. In the present situation of Ire-
land, and wanting information as the House did, with
respect to the state of that country, it was quite im-
possible that the discussion could be entered upon
with that intelligence and calmness which were ne-
cessary however the question might be disposed of.
Every one must admit, whether he was favourable or
adverse to the claims of the Catholics, that every
light that could be thrown upon the subject ought to
be afforded to enable them to enter upon the debate
with calmness and decorum. He consented, there-
fore, to postpone the motion, and had now only to
consider what day would be most convenient for the
House to entertain it. The debate being necessarily
put off till after Easter, he thought the first conve-
nient day that lie could name was the 17th of April.
On that day, if it met the approbation of the House,
he would bring it forward.
Sir E. KNATCHBULL suggested that the Order
for calling over the House, which stood for Thurs-
day, ought now to be discharged. Perhaps it might
be desirable that it should be moved to the day on
which the Right Hon. Gentletnan proposed to brieg'
forward his motion.—The Order for. calling over the
House on Thursday was then discharged, and a ne - -
Order made for calling over the House the 17th April.

. IRISH- MILITIA. I
• Mr. GOULBURN rose to move for leave to bringl
in a Bill for reducing the Staff of the Irish Militia.—
Anxious to make such reductions in the public expert-:
diture as the circumstances of tire country required,
his Majesty's Ministers had looked to the Stiff of the
Militia of Ireland, in which it had appeared to them
that a considerable reduction might be effected, with-
out at all impairing its efficiency. He proceeded to
shew that a material difference existed between the
English Militia and the Militia of Ireland. A reduc-
tion in the latter had been contemplated in the year
1817, but it was determined eventually that the Staff
should be left to diminish gradually. A Bill vi as
therefore brought in and passed, which enacted, that
no removal should take place, but that the vacancies
which occurred, from death or any other circum-
stances, should not be filled up: This course it -was
proposed to continue till the number of the Irish Staff,
then amounting to 3300, should be reduced to 1700.
Since that time about 190 deaths or desertions had
occurred, and about the same number were now in
the Hospital. The orders which had been latterly is-
sued by the Irish Government on this subject had not
been fully carried into execution. He did not mean
to blame those Gentlemen who had felt themselves
not bound to carry into effect the Measure which had
been pressed on them without a legislative enactmem,
but this circumstance made it necessary to come to
Parliament on the present occasion. It was painful
to him to interfere with the comforts and emoluments
of individuals—but, though he felt for their suffer-
ings, it was a duty which he had to perform, and
from which he would not shrink. He moved for
leave to bring in a Bill for the more speedy reduction
of the number of Seijeants, Corporals, 'and Drum-
mers, in the Irish Militia, not in actual service.
Colonel SKEFFINGTON disapproved of the mea-
sure, and announced it to be his intention to resist
the prOposed reduction. He, however, should not
object to the Bill being brought in, but would reserve
himself for the second reading, which he hoped the
Right Hon. Gentleman would not press before the
'papers for which he(Colonel Skeffington) bad moved
in the early part of the evening, had been laid before
the _ House.

Sir JOHN NEWPORT wished to trouble the
Home with a few words on a subject which he had
more nearly at heart than any other. Though he
had come to London for the purpose of being present
at that great and momentous discussion, which was
expected to come on in the course of the present
week, he had done so with a strong conviction of the
propriety of postponing that important question—
the Catholic question. He expressed his opinion with
great reluctance ; but he felt that the state of Ireland
was so little understood at this moment, that it would
not be dealing fairly with the question to bring it on
before opportunities had been afforded to the Mem-
bers of that House to make themselves more ac-
quainted with the Sister Country than they could be
at present. It was of great importance that that
debate should be entered upon candidly and fairly,
and with a full knowledge of the state of things in
Ireland. lie, then: Cite, ventured to express a hope
that his Right Hon. Friend would not bring on his
nrotion on Thursday, but would consent to let it
stand over till after-the recess. He preferred this re-
quest from a wish that the House should not pro-
ceed to the discussion of the Catholic Claims till all
the information had been given which it was de-
sirable should be communicated, and he trusted the
Right Hon. Gentleman would concur with him in
this, and postpone his motion till after Easter.
Mr. Secretary CANNING lost no time in declaring'
that he had most entirely concurred with the Right
Hon. Baronet. He was glad that this request had
not been preferred by a less decided friend to the
Catholic cause, as he (Mr. Canning) had.a clear and
strong impression on his mind that the present temper
of this country, and perhaps of the House itself, was
not such as to give the question a fair hearing if
brought forward at this moment. On the contrary,
if the question were now agitated, it would be mixed
up with a number of temporary, and, he hoped,
transitory topics, of which it might be divested be-
foie that period arrived to which the Right Hon.
Baronet desired that it should be postponed. It was
therefore his hope, that his Right Hon. Friend would
comply with the wish of the Right Hon. Baronet, as,
doing so, he would not depart from any pledge he had
given, and take that course which would best pro-
mote the great object which he had in view.
Sir JOHN STUART expressed a wish that the
question may be postponed for the present. He had
just returned from Ireland, and though the mercantile
part of the community were in- a tranquil state, a
great portion of the country was very much agitated
at this moment. He would not detain the House by
going into the causes of that agitation; but he could
mot help stating, that many persons who were de-
cided friends to the Government, disapproved of the
proceedings.
The SPEAKER begged to ask the Hon. Member
if he intended to conclude with the motion ? He was
sure that the House would feel, that when a request
was made to postpone the debate on the Catholic
Claims,. a subject of such practical importance, it
?eight be for their convenience that a slight deviation
born the usual course should be permitted. But the
moment a charge was made or an imputation thrown
out, and an attempt made to couple it with observa-
tions, it then became his duty to interfere and to stop
the speaker, unless he could state that he had a mcs.
lion to make. The Hon. Member wbilld pardon him
• Var this interruption, anti see, thit consistently with
• the rules of the House, he could not be allowed to•pvo-
--teed if he did not propose to conclude with a motion.
.Sir J. STUART disclaimed any intention Of ttts-
passing on the time of the Flouse bydeparting from
the usual course ; but had felt it upt:essisi to make
• the few remarks which be had offered. .
Mr. PLUNK EIT, before he gave an answer to the

Mr. HUME wished to know what extent of re-
duction in the expenditure was contemplated, by the
measure now to be introduced. lie also wished to
ask the Noble Lord opposite (Lord Palmerston),
whether the present Bill might be regarded as a pre-
lude to a similar reduction in the Staff of the English
Militia? If the Militia of Ireland could be reduced,
he thought a similar step ought to be taken with
respect to that of England.
Mr. GOULBURN did not think it necessary to
offer any reply to his Hon. Friend (Col. Skeffington),
further than to assure him that he would willingly
put off the second reading till after the production of I
the papers for which he had moved, and every op-
portunity would be offered for giving the subject the
fullest consideration. To the question put by the'
Hon. Gentleman (Mr. Hume) as to the reduction of
expense, he had to answer, that the estimate for the

Mr. WIEN FELL called the attention of the House to the
profits made by the Bank on the balances left in their hands,
and of the loss which the Public in consequence sustained.—
For a great many years these had been enormous, as the ba-
lances bad amounted to no less than from 11 to £ri,oo9,oGo.
The profit annually thence accruing to the Bank, and the loss
to the public, had amounted to between 5 and £600,000, while
the services rendered by the Bank were neither more nor less
than ordinary banking transactions. It 'had been stated to him
by practical men, with whom he had conversed on this subject,
that those services would have been amply and liberally re-
warded by an allowance of £lO,OOO per annum. Whets be
called the attention of the •Heuse to this subject in 1815, the
balance had amounted to the 1401 which he had mentioned.
They had since been reduced to between 3 and £4,000,000. In
the last year their amount had been £3,900,000. But he would
ask why so large a sum as even '>C4,000,000 should be left in the
hands of the Bank, unproductive to the country, when, in hie
opinion, nothing would be more ealy than to admit the Public
Ito a participation in the benefit? If the present Chancellor Of

able to gain from the late Chancellor of the Elchever, a Cons-
