Mr. G. MOORE presented a Petition from the Cord
Maim. Alden's.- it,atid Common Council of the City of
Dublin. The known loyalty cf that body would give
every:possible 'weight to the pr iyer which they made to
this House. They had no tear but for the safety and
security vf the Protestant Church arid State. The Pe.
.titionersieretted the experiment which- had just been
made- by firs blijeste's' Government, and they boldly
state that other temedies might ban easily been disco.
vesent.• The next Petition was from the Guild of' Mer-
chant.; who further prayed levity into the possessions
of the. Jesuits, • from the Cur porations of Stationers,
Saddlers, Plasterers, Joiners, Barbers, and Surgeons.
Mr. DOHERTY admitted the number of signatures
to thoseVetitititis, but what a eight ought to be attached
to Heti would be seen by-and-bye. He bad no doubt
whatever of Their loyalty—lce hoped they would still
continue so—and the best proof of it would be in their
hailing' with gratitude the measures now proposed by
bits ir3 .jesty's Government fur the pacification of Irelard.
He admitt-cf that becoming langu ige should be at tached
to amity Petition, but nut an equal deftree of weight to
all. In that Hasse, even, certain MemWN had a degree
•of weight on given subj cis attached 1* their opinions,
'which were very probably rhferred to alas. Num-
bers alone should not be taken into the account, and
while mach prejudice wig abroad on this great ques-
tion. he thought the sooner it was settled the better.
He had heard nothing new on this subject; and, indeed,
all he had heard was 1688 over and over again repeated.
He thought that the joiners and the plea( ten, even the
Lord Mayor and Sheriff of Dublin, were not tlie best'
judges of the nice constructions of an Act of Parliament,
and on which this question mainly hinged. He *assure,
if his Learned Friend allowed his capacious mind to
consider the question calmly, that there would be little
difference between them. It in private life Gentlemen
bad differences as to their estates, they would not consult
joiners or plasterers, or the Sheriffs of Dublin. They,
would, doubtless, first aeply to a very different class of
persons. Already a Petition had been presented-from
the English Bar, signed by SW men of the highest
respectability; and in the course of Monday he would
have to present a similar Petition from the Protestant
• members of the Irish Bar,,aruoitnting to 100, and from
C Gentlemen of the same Bars to. the number of
67. He would not have said thus much if he did am
feel it necessary :o show the House what weight should
be attached to those Petitions.
htr.TRANT said that the opinions of the la a Lord
Clare and Lord Oriel wear adverse to Emancipation.
Resides, some of the most respectable Members of the'
lush Bar were also against Concession. He would
plentibn the Colleague of the lion. Member and Mo-
Sailia. He felt a res• anxiety on this question, and
.Therelote it was that he so oiteu presented hinssirlt to
their notice.
Mr. G. MOORE defended the respectability and the
10, +aqui the petitioners, andihecould state that amongst
she petitioners were to be found some of the most le-
spe:table; wealthy, and intelligent men in Irish society.

Mi. G. MOORE—The Petition be bad mot to pm-
sent was signed by upwards of four thousand per.ons
,ho had not merely subscribed their hot added
.heir addre.s..s, ro that it could not he liable to the ob

j-c.ions so frequently made to PI itions against t.e
Catholic Claims. It included u large a mass
.1 seipeetabolity and wealth as was perhaps to be
f mod in any equal number of sign *Avec It was
sitbsci 'bed by the main body of the ,Magistrate, of
Dubin. by * great portion of the higher class of
society sn that eapit 41, by a considerable number
f tie mew end freeholders, be.isles between four alai

five bundled students of the University. Tn. addition
of these names testified that the rising youth of Ireland
,Aese 4$ much opposed to further concession as their

mote mature contemporaries. It might be said to esta-
blish the gen rrl .ense of the youth of Ireland—loi
:hough it idosg in Dublin, they were connected with
f.muir► ell owes the country—and, when it was fought
th I. to 4 yeti inn of this kind were attached so many
names • f students of the University, the fair inference
wa that the opinion of the youth of Ireland was in ac.
cordance with their sentiments. He did not mean un-

duly to put this petition foiwatd, as had been charged
by the lion. Member lot Kilkenny ; he applied to it no
epithets it did not deserve, and a reference to the bigna..
tures would confirm the observations he had made.

Mr. NORTH did not intend to have trespassed on the
House, but for the observation w hich fell bons the Hon.

Member for Dublin, who wished to have it understood

that because the Petition he was about to present had
the signatures of some hundreds of the Students of
Trinity College, Dublin, it contained the sentiments of
the tising youth of Ireland. He (Mr. North) bad good
means of forming an opinion as to the sentiments pre-
vailing amongst the Students of the DOH!' University,
and his opinion was, that their sentiments were tavoura-
_

ble to the settlement of this ipiestion in a mintier which
world promote the tranquillity and happiness of their
country, and Cott they were like what youth is every
*heir when unbiassed, mist favourable to the calla
of ftealum. The Hun. Member fur Dublin, however,
no doubt had heard that vet y considerable pains were
taken to intu e peels teal opinints of a tiff-rent charac-
ter amongst the students of the Dublin University : but
he (Mr. North) consideial that there could be no baser
lact than to betray the sacred trust ied o.ed in those who
had the education of youth entiosted to them, and to
take those advantages of that opportunity to instil the
deadly viols r f ;laity spirit and prejudice against one
class of their fellow subjects, in minds nut yet ripe not
matured. He was ' confident, however, that if
any such at empt had been made in the Dublin
University, it had proved a most signal f ilure. He
was wet) acquainted . with the sentiments of the
youth of one profession at least—he meant the
youth of the 1ri..11 Ear; and he did not hesitate
o state, that to every great extent they entestainedseo-
•tnnents on this subject cotre•ponding with his own. He
also knew much of the youth of another profession—
ttose gong f nth to the mioiitty of the Irish Church ;
and, although animated with a noble zeal for religion,
and an atm rue desire to diffuse the principles of the
Protestant religion theoughout the country, he .was en-
abled to say that they considered the Tuition oreatho-
lie Emancipation nut as a religious but merely as a
political question, and that they were desirous totem it
to the eosisioe.:atithr of the Guveinment and the Legisla,
tore. lie apologised foe Itespassing cm the attention of
the House; but he felt called Nom to offer a respect'
ful but decided contradiction to the 'statement of the
Hon. Member for Dublin, that the petition contained
the sentiments of the rising youth of Ireland.
Mr. G. MOORE had no doubt that the st itenteat of
his Hon. and Learned Friend (Mr. Noetb) was spite
consistent wila the information he bad received: the
fact was not to be disputed that the petition was signed
by a considerable . portion of the under-geaduttes of
Trinity College; and he had been assurei by persons more
intimately acquainted with the state of political feeling
among the youth of Ireland than himself or his Hon.
Friend, tut for ty-nine out of fifty of the present Students
of the University were hostile to concession. His Hon.
Friend had said that be (Mr. M.) was not ignorant olthe
meal's used is indocile* opinion: be disclaimed any
such knowledge, and be did not believe that any ezer-
tioas whatever had been made to excite a particular
feeling which otherwise would net have had existence
in the College. He was satisfied that after youths had
mooed the University no osearts'of any k.nd were used
to excite them against thatattolies. He was quite
aware that there woe many individuals in Dublin Col-
lege, zealously, honestly, and conscientiously devoted
to the principles expeeserd in the petiti In; bat of this he
was convinced. that there was not any one of those in-
dividuals who (to use the words of his Hun. and Learned
Friend) would betray the trust reposed in them fur rise
education of youth, for the pug pose of exciting political
F clings, or would take any course to prevent the ez-
pression'of unbiassed opinion by those under them.
• Mr. CROKER said, that even allowing to the opin
mina of the individuals who had signed the Petition,
who he supposed were strictly the youth of the Univers.
sky, all the weight which he would even grant to those
who had ezperienes of the situ.tion of the country for
the last twenty or thirty years, still he would ask his
Hon. Friend hostile was, if forty-nine outof every fifty
Members of the. University. wet e favourable to his opi-
sions, that only some handfed& bad signed the Pe.kiont
bearing only a proportion of one sixth to the. •hrile
amount of the body ? He thought the signing of thisPeti,
Lion was not the wisest thing on the part t.f the young
men who had signed it, and certainly dot on the part
of their instigators. The University derived her
distinguished origin, in being, as she had bees
called, the eldest daughter of the Reformation. She
had always shown herself worthy of that distinction b
her mildness, her toleration, and by the gencruite mei
with which she had maintained the purest Protestant
principles. The University hadn It now chosen to take
any part in the question, and her silence spoke in a voice
fonder than that of tongues. In former years. the Uni
gamy had petitioned against the Catholics; but in this
etis4. when every body felt e titled to come forward
eith a declaration of their opinions, she had remained
silent. He was therefore entitled to say that. she had
taken the part of a friend' to toleration, and reposed het
eonfidence in the Government and in the w.sdosn
Parliament He thought' this was proved by the result
of the election seli:n his Hon. Fit nd.,was opposed whip(
as a candidate for the tepresentation of the University,
and. he wad confident that if that event were to recur to•
motion', his Hon. Fiend vo.uld be I.ft in a very small

Sir F. BURDETT said, be had a Nitwit to pressor,

of Ire ; and he had also a Petition to present from
the inhabitants of this metropolis, signed by 8,000 per-
•eins, in fay.iar of thr Catholic Relief Bill. The

one Petiii in was *sample of the good sense rithe Pio-
trstant inhabitants of England, whilst the other was the
prayer of tlie Roman Catholic inhabitants of Ireland,
and both petitions were deserving of glen considera-
tion ; for lie believed they were not li ride to any cf
those objections as tde against several of the Petitions,
presented at the other side. He, was unwilling to cast
a slur on the P. titioos presented. or on the practice of
petitioning, but it was impossible those Petitions c.suld
have any weight when, in order to procure them, ap-
peals were made to the vulgar and obsolete prejodice.
of the multitude--iTheH inourablellaronet here allu Jed
to a hand-bill, eau led " A Scourge to .Popery," which
he stated had been distributed through different pails
of the country). Those things were really almost be
neath notice, but yet, when the fe ling of the country
was spoken of, it was impossible not 't s recollect that
such means had been minted to; but he was gratified
to add that they had entirely (ailed, for there was no
matter base enough to work upon in this country.
He was highly gratified with the information he had
received as to the effects already produced by the
•proposed measures in Ireland. He had always witi-
cipated the best effects from those measistes; but be
did not anticipate that those effects would have been
produced so at eedily. The R man Catholic Associa-
tions with a generosity and wisdom highly creJiteld • to
it, )iad alriady dissolved itself, and thrown its Won the
justice of P'arlia'ment. The agitators of Ireland were
now 'gone, and the anti Catholic agitator, at home
would soon be tranquillized and obliged to earl cis: the
same forbearance. for they would not find people here
to work upon. Ile understood that nut only the Roman,
'Catholics, but the It nos wicker. and the Orangemen,had
already made a movement towards reconciliation. The
Catholics had met their former opponent .with open a m-,
and had given a foretaste of the beneficial effects which
the proposed measures were likely to produce. Very
violent attacks had been made on the character of the

Right lloiiourable Gentleman opposite (Mr. Peel,
but he (Sir Francs But det:) was of opinion that the at-
tempt to catty into effect a meatus, of conciliation
was no reasonable ground for reproach. Them was
much angry feeling on this suhject, and much de2te-
cation both as to the benefits likely to result from the
proposed measure. and as to the- conduct a those who
introduced it. He could not pass over this opportunity
without observing that the Right Honourable Secre-
easy for the Noche Department was ably a.sisted by
the Right Ham Seesetaryfor tot Colonies. That Right
Honoaraole Gentleman had made a m ist effective
speech, slid one much to the purpose—(ll as). He (Sir
Francis Burdett) was happy to see Gentlemen of that
[note:don taking a plot in the management of the coun-
try. No men in his opinion Were more b. nevoleut, or
practically bitter fitted to mariage the affaiss of the
country. The Right Hossourable Gentleman, from the
ranks of the army, bad real a lecture tq the Chutch.
He said that in the army they had n.s civil dissen ions ;
there were no distinctions amongst themselves; the)
slept in the same tent, matched in the 'stmt • rank,
mounted the same breach, and were oily emulous of
glory; they were buried in the same grave ton, and
rested their hopes on the same annum ea. Such were
the 'sentiments of the Right honourable Gentleman,
and they should be written in letters of gold, and should
enrich the walls of every cottage and cabin in England
and Ireland. As to the Noble Duke at the head of the
Government, it was unnecessary to say any thing of
him. He was now
r. Witt' surpassing glory crowned ;"
for all joined in praising the ability which he had di..
played in those measures. There was a passage in
Harlington which peculiarly struck him as applicable
to the present Government. Harrington said, 4' .n)• re
is seasetblag in the leading of as mins, and in the go
vertment of States, which belongs peculiarly to Gen-
tlemen," and that remark he thowlit belonged pecutiaily
to the present Government. As to the E sgli.ll Catho-
lics their conduct was above all praise and above all
reproach. They depended on the justice of the country,
and they would now be achnitts:d within the pale of the
constitution. and the Empire would at length be uni: ed.
The time of the House could no longer be occupied
with discussions of this kiwi, and the other interests of
the country would be attended to. He had received a
letter from a member of the society of Quakers retidest
At Cloonan', stating that since the report • f the speech
of the Right Hon. Gentleman had reached Ireland, on
the part of the Quakers oho had hi.herto opposed them
AU hostility towards the Catholics hai ceased, and that
the Catholics were so analogs for the reconciliation that
they wished it not to be postponed a single day, and the
parties absolutely paraded the stems arm in arm.
(Laughter). In France and in other countries the pro-
gress oft lerant principles had been prodiscive of great
public advantage, and it was only reasonable to expect
that the same consequences would result from the mane
measures in this. He had no doubt that Hon. Members
would see grounds to mitigate their opposition whim
they observed the beneficial consequences that would
follow from the proposed treasures. The Honourable
Baronet concluded by piesenting the petitions.
Mr. THANT said he was unrolling so frequently to
trouble the House, but an impel ious sense of duty im-
pelled him. not to let any opportunity pass of contributing
as tar as he possibly could to resist the destru.tion to
that Constitution for which our ancestors had suffered
and sacrificed so much. He confessed he felt no
little surprise at the eloquent eulogium pronounced
by the Honourable Baronet upon the blessings of a
military Government—(Loud cries of “ No, nu no").
If his ears did not very much deceive bins. the Ho
nourable Baronet certainly did in substance- pronoui
an eulogium upon a military Government. The Hon.
Baronet declared most distinctly, that, in his opinion.
a military Government was the fittest for this country
in its present circumstances; he said he rejoiced to see
military men in that House, and the iespoosible situa-
tions in his Majesty's Gores nment filled by membersisl
that profeuion, possessing as they did the distinguished
chief at the head of the Administration. From this
he (Mr. T.y was justified in assuming that the Honour-
able Baronet .did approve of a military Government,
ant considered it best fn the country. He had heard,
much of the Quartermaster General and the Szliff of
the Noble Person et the head of the Ministry, and he
trusted he might be allowed to say he beard them spoken
of, as. the lien. Baronet had alluded 5., pointedly to the
subj-ct of a militar,,Government. T. is, however, he
(Mr- T.) bane:, to be understood as doing with e.ei y
possible respect for the gallant person in question. He
confessed he very much doubted bow far the seat m nts

principle which repudiateJ any interference with pro-
ceedings ot that House, and which those II n. Mem-
ben had ever been the first to vindicate. Those who
were pietty well acquainted with the Cons'itution of the
country and the proceedings of Parliament, regarded
such interference w.th the freedom of debate and the hari-
. ileges of the Legidatuie as, to say the le: at of them, not
very decorous. Upon that point hr dial not think it ne•

.0 much had he not thong! t it doe to the privilege of
th at H time, had he not throlAht it necessary so to meet
the argumeuta on the other side, and to show loath the
oriconsistency of Honourable Members on that occasion.
With vestect to the general teunur of the observations
..hick the H-ruse had just freatd from the Honourable
Ila.noet, he would leave them to be umwered by other
Nlember s of that Ilou.e, attached to the true Protestant
principles of tf:e Constitution. He could not have been

U use the degree in which the Honuotable Baronet was
