PROTEST AND ADDRESS TO THE KING.

LEEDS, Dic. 10.

At a numerous Meeting of Gentlemen, inhabitants
of the Ism( ugh of Leeds, hell at the Court House this
day, RALPH MARKLAND, E.q. Mayor, in the Chair,
It was unanimously Resolved to prevent the follow-
ing. Address to his 14 jesty, to be signed individually
by inhabitants of the said borough :
To die Ennis mon tummies XAMISTV•
" Star—We, your Majesty's loyal subjects, inhabitants of the
borough of Leeds, in the county of York, in tendering our ex-
pressions of loyalty, duty, and affection to your Royal person, and
'to the members of your Illustrious House, beg individually to
Protest against an Address to your Majesty. purporting to contain
the sentiments of the inhabitants of this borough ; whereas, in our
judgment, the address in question conveys opinions of the most
perokious tendency, and utterly inconsistent with the structure of
the British Constitution.
" Recent event,. Sire—no less than the experience of former
ages, have shown the overbearing inflame* of the Roman Catholic
Priesthood on the consciences of members of their own commu-
nion, and have supplied indubitable proof' that Roman Catholics
must exercise political power (were they invested with such), sot
in defence, but in subvessiou of, our Protestant Consitkution, in
Church and State.
" We, therefOre, your Majesty's dutiful, loyal, and allectionate
subjects, as we regard the maintenance of our civil dens and re-
ligions liberties—as we ardently desk* the preservation of your
Royal line4l we valve the peace and prosperity of our country—
are firmly opposed to the admission of Roman Catholics to further
'political power, and are concerned to keep inviolate the principle of
Protestantism, which seated your Royal House on the Throne of
these realms—which supports and maintains our glorious Comae.,
don—which has long preserved to every subject the enjoyment of
liberty, greater than any people ever before enjoyed, and which,
with the blessing of Dense PROVIDUICS, has raised this kingdom to
the• highest rank in the scale of minus.
4 I We pray Bon to prosper your Majesty's cares for the welfare
of your people, to bless your Majesty with health and long life,
and to Crown your reign with prosperity and peace.
" RALPH MARKLAND, Chairman."

ROMAN CATHOLIC ASSOCIATION, Dec. 9.
MISSION TO ZNOLAND.
Mr. Secretary O'GORMAN read a letter from Mr.
Eusebius Andrews, dated London, December 2. 1828,
inclosing 101. Catholic Rent. and deprecating the con,
duct of Members of the Association quarrelling amongst
themselves; and adverting to the intended mission to
England in no very respectlui terms.
Mr. COPPINGCR said he, fur one, deplored the nem•
city of any individual of that body censuring the con-
duct of another Member, and admitted he was the per-
son who originated the u•ipleasant discussion alluded to
in the letter of Mr. Andrews.—lt was plain that Gen-
tleman advEtted to the deham that occurred on the last
day of meeting oo the sub jest lithe mission ; but that,
in order to preserve unanimity, he would not now press
any -subject that might have a tendency to mate dis-
union, which was to be lamented, and which they
should all studirusly avoid.
Mr. FINN—Our friends, amongst the people of Eng-
land particularly, are disgusted with our silly quartets;
and, although they are delighted with our eloquence,
yet they are displeased and grieved that any thing
having the semblance of discord should occur amongst ,
us calculated to mar our just hopes and prospects. I,
therefore. in the name of our common cause, call upon
you all to give up your little prejudice.—let good feel-
ing alone prevail amongst us, and let us extinguish the
spirit of personality for ever—(Hear). If we differ, let
us do se as Gentlemen and as Christians. I am con.
fident Mr. Coppinger does not entertain in his heart any
sentiment of dislike to the individual with whom he
lately had a difference on the subject alluded to in the
letter of Mr. Andrews.
Mr. Secrete: y (Worm AN moved that pact of the letter
be inserted on the minutes, the remainder being of a
pirate nature. He said Mr. Andrews was a Gentleman
of great respectability, and had inclosed 101. rent.
The motion was agreed to ; and, on the mition of Mr.
Joan BROWN, the Secretary was directed to reply to it.
A fetter, dated Nov. 21, 1828. from the Rev. Dean
Blakely, and also a letter from the Rev. Mr. MoD amen,
cif Birmingham, were also read, and answers returning
the thanks of the Association were directed to be for-
warded to them.
Mr. LAMM'S here entered the Rooms, and imme-
diately after observed. that the letter from Mr. Andrews
was scarified and mutilated.
Mr. J. J. MURPHY. the Secretary to the Meeting,
stated that he had crossed i.ut certain parts of it by the
authority of the Association, as they related to matters
of a private nature.
Mr. Secretary O'GORMAN admitted he legit out cer-
tain parts of it in order that they should out be printed.
Mr. LAWLItS—Mr. Andrews finds 'auk with myself,
,and, perhaps, very justly.
Mr. Secretary O'GORMAN—lndeed he does.
Mr. LawLass—Yes, because his communications are
mutilat-d, as, for instance, the present one, which CO*
tains very valuable information, that is for the present
at least suppressed. I shall therefore sow give notice.
