MR. CORBETT'S OPINION
ON ROMAN CATHOLIC EMANCIPATION.

Mr. Cobbett has addressed a long letter to the Men of
Kent, respecting the approaching Kentish Meeting.—'
The topics he principally touches upon ate not very re-
levant to the present question; but the following pas.
sages are worth reading, though he underrates the
number of Roman Catholics which the measure he
derides would thrust into Parliament :

• Pray, my friends, be not *mooed by hypocritical
stuff about Catholic Emancipation.' What relief could
the poor people of Ireland receive from putting half a
dozen of Catholic Peers into the House of Lords, a dozen
or two of Catholic'Squiresinto the House of Commons,
and silk gowns upon the backs of two or three score of
lawyers, who, for the greater part, stand in need of
hemp round their necks, instead of silk on their backs?
Gentlemen, Catholic Emancipation' means the
giving r f a share of the taxes to the Catholic Nobility and
.lawyers, who, being empty, would come updn us so
sharply, as not' to leave a drop of blood in our bodies.
We know well what these men mean: they have once
already offered that the 406. Catholic freeholders of Ire-
land should be disfranchised, If England would let them
into Pailiamen.t and give them silk gowns, and would
pay salaries annually to the Catholic Priests ; this as-
tonishingly impudent proposition was actually brought
before Parliament in 1825."
