•SURREY COUNTY MEETING.

The inhabitants of the populous county of Surrey,
have for a considerable time past been anxiously anti-
cipating the opportunity that is to be afforded them of
ocressing their bras attachment to Protestantism, and
Akcir veneration of the Constitution of 1688. A requi-
sition, numerously and reApestably signed, having been
presented to the High Sheriff, Felix Ladbroke, Esq.
that Geagenesn convened the freeholders of the county
to assemble at Epsom, oo Saturday, to take into consi- '
deletion the propriety of petitioning Parliament and
addressing their Sovereign, against the breaking in of
the Coe,tstution, as threatened by Ministers. Every
town, every village, every hamlet, throughout the es-
tensive county, prepared to answer the summons, and,
for the last week, occapatious of all kinds have been
well nigh suspended, for the purse of canvassing the
fearful measure devised by the abettors of Popery, and
all anxiously awaiting Ibis opportunity of giving espies.
*ion to their feelings.
At an early hour in the morning the gentlemen of the
county began to arrive, and by ten o'clock this usually
valet little town assumed the appearance of bustle and
confusion. Shortly after wards the freeholders of the
county, is every description of vehicle, began to poor in,
and the preparatioas for the meeting commenced andel
the direction. of Mr. &nom the Under Sheriff of the
Comity.
Some few placards, perfectly innocent in themselves,
and adopted for the sole purpose of gilding doe publicity
to the meetutg, hate been in partial circulation; but
none that we lave sten or heard of can be designated 4i

Mr. CATS; they moved that a Petition. founded no

Mr. Hunr—stop till the treolatious are carried—
(Laughter and bi.s.s).
Mr. Poirear.t. then presented. himself to second the
Itesolutioos, and was receired with loud cheers. He
began by impressing his pips's,* in baying an sr
portunity to second a Petition of this kind at the
present moment, because he thought the sentiments
of the lower class bad been disregarded by the ;sigma
Hobs* of Commons in a mother the most disgraceful.
It was only the other evening that a member, himself a
shopkeeper. declared that a petition, Signed by 113,000
persons. bad been got up in a corset, and that nei-
ther the people, nor the Committee who managed the
petition, knew whit they were doing. He-kbouted
under very great disadveakages in coming forward on
this occasion. as be possessed but very little property
in this county; but if be wanted any reason for coming
forward, it was because the voice of the people who
,base DO property bad been disiegarded,' in a manner
twiknowa in the year 1688. Because the country bad
allowed the principle of expediency to creep ia, that
'country had arrived aim present aisle. If the opposers
of this measure were 'Moog, then were their ancestors
wrong—Lord Eldon. and many other. of distinction
were wrong. Then was the Duke of York—then was
the Duke of Cumberland wrong. There were few who,
valued the religious rights of the people of England, bet'
would give cheers for Protestant Ascendancy—(Cbeens
A wag cried out, N one cheer more;" litaghter).—He
wished any individual to point out a single country
under heaven wbete the Catholic religson prevailed'and
where liberty existed. A tientleosan near one says in
Fiance—France cannot be taken. as parallel. for awe
the infidels took the Holy Bible, tied it to an ass's
and dragged it through the streets. According to this
oath taken by every Catholic Bishop on his indeed.,
be was bound in every respect to support the Poyili
See, and to prevent any other person from having power.
He defied any person to show that there was a single
Catholic country in existence where the necessity war
not telt of restricting thp Popes from circulating their
Bells throughout the country. He invited any Gentle-
Man t 6 read the last Bull that bad been circulated, and
they would see its evil tendency. The language of Dr.
Doyle was, that his hostility was not to the Church, hut
to the principles of the Established Church, whisk to
considered opposed to all the interests of Ireland....
What a eons at did the time present, when Queen Bess
held the helm of.the vessel—Goa filled her sails, and
the rode gallantly over the people. He prospered be
as long as het Council was Protestant. He (Mr. P.)
knew it was said eh* died a Papist; if that was really

With that hope be cordially seconded the Petition.

confusion ensued, which lasted 'several siestas Mr.
Demme robs!, eadeavoured to obtain a bearing, and at
last made way for Mr. C. N. Pallas:4 who was loudly
cheesed.
Mr. C. N. PaLLltilt. said the Protestant motto was.
to dojeptise to every one, and be hoped they would beat
every freeholder, for it would deplore their enemies
of the imesuld saying they had not sited impartially.

He did not see any relson on the other side of the

great teepee' as any person for the forensic abilities of

tion that alter a lapse of three years he was enabled to

been made to the venerable Lord Eldon, whose name

" 9ne cheer more for Lord Eldon).—He (Mr. P.) was
aware that he could say nothing to add to the charac-
ter of one whine integrity, talents. and consistency,
were above all praise; but he hoped he might be al-
lowed to say 'to those who presumed to throw discredit
upon his opinions on this great question, that in the dis•
charge of the more difficult and abstruse of all human
employmepts, fur a great portion of a century, he had
given the world decisions which would be treasured
.upt and q•seteci for the protection of the properties and
families of dime who now venture to sneer at his poli-
tical judgment, for many and many a year after they
aid their opinions had sunk into oblivion. Was it upon
this great measure alone that this great man was not to
be allowed to bare an influential opinion? An Hon.
• Gentle Wan had alluded to a subject which filled Mr.
Ps with pain, and forced upon him the most sorrowful
recollections; and yet he had made it a necessity to re-
_ fir to it. He had alluded to whit he called Mr. P.% inti-
. Macy with the lamented Lord Liverpool, and called for
Isis know ledge of that statesman's opinion sport the Core-
- nation Oath. Mr. P. declared be had. no such know•
. ledge; but he owed it to the memi.ry of one who had
loaded him with kindnesses which he should ever deem
the greatest honour if his life, to say that there was no
part of the virtues and eminent services of that truly
virtu us statesman which he more admired than his
attachment to the pure Reformed religion of the coun-
try. his consisteiit and determined resistance of the Ro-
titan Catholic Claims; and Mr. P. was impressed with
the mi re decii!ed conviction, that, under she most ur
gent necessity for concession, he never would have re
• maiiied in 'Ace to propose it. Mr. P. paid a great
• coniplimei.t to a young Gentleman (Mr. Peyote, ), who
had that day delivered opinions—(Cheers)—which did
hull or to the University (Cambridge) which he had just
lab, and whi h had beets charged with having descried
a cause 'which 'he so ably supported ; but m.a. said,
be would now proceed to the more immediate object
o' their meeting. Ireland, governed and ditected by an
usurped authority, whose agents were the Pi ;est-, and
whose instruments were the flecholeets, demanded con
cession of power to Papists as the price of peace.—
.England, alarmed for the pure M. -toted religion, to
which she owed her happiness here, and her hopes
hereafter, was unwilling to endanger it; and the Mi-
nistas of that holy religion, faithful to their sacred
ust, have proclaimed, in decided terms, the danger
of concession. A Ministry, feeling that the d.nger
and the difficulties of resistance to Ireland were ins-
mediate, and (he was willing to admit) immense, have
speculated upon the greater but more distant evil.,
%Lich they do not deny may result from breaking
down that part of the Constitution of the country,which
was framed for the conservation h f Protestant Ascen-
dancy—they have advised their Sovereign to recont-
send this course to Parliament; but they have in•
duced him to do so in a Speech, bolding out the
fairest promises of regard to the preservation of the
Protestant 'elision, and lulling a confident and loyal
people to the last into hopes of s corky, which have
been bitterly and completely di-appointed. The Re-
presentatives of the people of England have by a ma-
jority decided in favour of the Ministers; but a large
portion of the people have denied the right of their Re-
• presentatives to make this infraction of the Constitution;
and a still larger portion of them have dec lared,in count-
". less numbers, that it ought not to be guide. The county
of Surrey is assembled this day to express their opinions
en this momentous question. I come here (said Mr.
Pallmet), my C' nstituents, as one at lout Reptesentaa
• tires, to receive. not to give, opinions, and to ask you
whether you too are willing to co-operate in this idola-
tidos worship Of the demon of Fear—this pinions
sacrifice upon the akar of an unhallowed tranquil-
lia tion? Alloiv me just to say, Gentlemen, that
at the time of my election I gave you the bias of
'thy then unfixed opinions; a year afterwards I gave
yen tlrsse opinions in a more decided manner in writing.
I c• aimed those opinions in a subsequent year by
• a vote, in Parliament. and I have this year, upon
occasions too frequently manifested, a strengthened con-
viction on the subject. In one short sentence, my opi-
• Moe is, that the religion of 'the R •man Catholics consi-
der our Protestant Church as an in:ruder—its posses-
si..ns an niurpation--that interest, duty, and every mu-
Jive which can actuate man for the sake of himself and
his Gan, combine to make Cl e Catholic exert hint ell to
Rieke proselytes to an (what I have seen and Leh ve)
apostate and idolatrous Church, to restore its ascendan-
cy and restore its possessions, and the measure proposed
gives imru, nse additional means for the aecomplisl.-
. ni-ut of those obj.cts. 11 their power b- so formidable
at present, is it nut madness to increase ? Are we not
sure that the; will proceed from object to object, to
• work upon the weakness of conceding Ministers till
they have nothing more to gain
Till conquest anresisted cease to pleise,
And rights submitted leave them Dope to seise.

We have lihrsn"se ;actives' New York Pipers to the
iSth Feb. inclusive. The Congress declared on the lath
ult. General ANDISW JACKLIN to be duly elected Pre-
sident of the United States for tour years. and Mr. J.
C. CALmocry, Vice President for the same period. The
intelligence from Carthagena comes down to the 10th
Januarys but nothing important had Wren place riche,
there or at BogotA. BoLIVAR proceeded to Popaysn
on the 28th Dec. to j in the army against the insu•gents.

We have given, in a subsequent part of our Pape,.
the correspondence which took place between the Duke
of Wawrioron and the Earl of WINCHILSZA prior to
the hostile meeting, of which we gave an account in,
our Paper of Saturday. We do not see any reason, alter
a perusal of these documents, to alter the op;nion w hich
we then expressed. Of the original insult complained
of by the Duke of Wxwaorou there can be but one
opinion. All must lament that so amiable and
honoura-
Ls
use a Nobleman as the Earl of WI sh old
have been led into such an unwarrantable a tack ut.on
the Duke as that which was contained in his letter to
Mr. Comentoos ; and if A reparation, such as the lotions
of the world consider in si:nilar ease. to be necessary,
was in this instance to be sought. it was impossible th4t
it could have been dem ended in a mote digtolitd,
moderate, and proper manner than that adopted
by his Grace. But we contend that the Duke of
WYLLINOTOS was not justified in t.king such a step
at all. He had tri doubtful reputation to establish,
and his character was beyond the reach of any im-
putation for not condescmidiog to notice a news-
paper attack, though made by a Pier. But be bad
a life to preserve, which to • his ci untry was mote im-
portant than langm.ge can express. It was her prorerty,
and he bad no right tot isk it, nor to endanget the affairs
of the nation by the catastiophe which the death of him-
self or of the Earl of WINCHILSBA by his Grace's pistol
would have occasioned. On these grounds, as well as
on account s f the example dins set to society by so in
fluential a person as his Grace. filling too the situation
of first adviser of the Crown, we cannot but deeply la-
ment that the Duke should, by demanding an apology,
have placed Lord 11/mutt-um in such a situation as to
leave no possibility of an accommodation, wi bout his
Lordship's first giving his Grace the " satisfaction of a
Gentleman." In the affair itself, both patties appear
to have acted a proper part : and we cannot sufficiently
admire Lord Wracuttsaa's conduct in immediately
afterwards making that reparation in apology, which a
man of honour never hesitate, to do when he flails him-
self in the wrong.

The result of the Surfer Meeting at E,i,c+m on Satur-
day. must be wormwood to the Pro-embolic.. T e
petition against Corice.,ion oas care d by sill over-
whelaaing majority. In fact. there were not 'buy*
twenty hands against the petition out of an as•enrblage
of at least threethoosand. The proceeding. of the Meet-
ing are given in oat preceding columns.

The Roman Crthohc Relief 801 l is to be committed
to-night, and the friends of the Constituti..° in the
House if Commons intend to wake another stand
against this obnoxious measure. We have reason to
bel;eve that a powerful effort will be made to carry a
Resolution to prevent Roman Catholics from becoissiug
Privy Councillors.

Brazil, Dutch, and Hamburgh Mails arrived this
morning, from which we make a few short estracts; by
une of which it appears that the Duk: of Wawrioron
had sent a Courier to the Eng'Wl Nobility resident in
Rome and different parts of Italy, to solicit th,ir
votes by posy, in favour of Catholic Emancipation.
