the ar t cipatim of the overhyamt mind of 40 alarmist,

Britain knows to her eost,that whenever they did possess
official powerthey did use it to pervert the Constitution,
and 611 the corona', with all manner of evil. Therefore
they were justly excluded from the Throne, the Cabinet,. •
and the Legislature. It is not my intention to ter üble
you with a recital of the numerous facts which might
be adduced from history to support this principle, and
which of late have been often set forth. Any one su•
crucially acquainted with the history of England
knows that the very name of James 11. recalls •scenes
which cause the Protestant to shrink with horror, and
stimulate him to exert every endeavour to prevent the
possibility of their recurrence—(Heat, hear). The Ro-
man Catholic will tell us that the doff •rence between
Protestantism and Popery is merely nominal, as far as
regards Civil Government, and that their divided alle-
giance, with which we charge them, and which is, in
tact, the root of the evil, merely regards spiritual con-
cerns. But these are mere assertions—they cannot prove
it—if they Could they would obtain their demands ; lot
the British Constitution professes to give the same poi
vileps to all oa the same terms—but they demand ex
;lasi,* privileges—they demand that their Church
sh uld be set over the Constitution and the Government
—they deny the Sovereign that right with which the
Protestants have invered Trim—the appoi;lment of the
Clergy. They give that appointment to the Pope, ever
the enemy of England. The layman is throughout the
slave of the priest.. To whom can we attribute the tre-
mendous political combination existing in Ireland, hav-
ing for its declared object a vital political change.? The
Bishops and Priests appointed directly oi-indirectly by
the. Pope. Who tax their flocks to maintain it? Who
destroy the e!ective franchise? Who bind down Members
of the Legislature too; p s th Government in aU thing.?
The Bishops and Priests appointed by the Pope. It is
idle to tell
.us that the Catholic Clergy act as they do
merely for the removal of their disabilities. That they
can act so for any purpose is abundant proof, decisive
evidence, that foreign allegiance vitally affects civil
government. They could use the same power for any
i•ther question—such as the repeal of the Union, or the
overthrow of the E,tablished Church. Their demand
of unconditional emancipation is made in violation r f
every principle of right and justice; and let me ask—
are you prepared to consent that these demands be
granted ? Are you ready to agree in tame sub mission
to the deprivation of your just political tights, and will
you shrink from defending wi.at your ancestors nobly
won ?—(Cries of " No, no,' and of " No surrentlet.r)
Ale you yet sufficiently educated in the school of libe-
rality as to be induced to bend your necks under the
yoke of Popery—a yoke mote degrading than ever yet
was plat d on man, enslaving as it does both body and
soul ?—(" No, never.") It is, lam convinced, unneces
sat y to explain to Protestants their duty on this emer-
gency. %1 hen they look to the state of Ireland a: this
moment, they see what the Roman Catholics really ask,
and t' ey need not deliberate on a reply. The pride
and independence of Englishmen may bear the insult
conveyed in the act of demanding concessioi on such
terms, but will never suffer them to be.clegraded. The
adakagates of emancipation and the Roman Catholics
gr y assure us that V e removal of the disabilities
will produce tear quillity—that Vie disordered scenes
which now vex and agitate this unhappy land will be
sootted into a calm of peaceful serenity—that the priests
wid cease their political labours and be absorbed in the
multitude of their spiritual duties—that the bonds of so-
c.ety will not he trampled on, and the compact between
landlord and tenant will be united never again to be
di.severed. Such assurances might be entitled to some
degree of cre !mice were it not certain that, the Roman
Catholics have mail other objects in view besides oh-
tai ling admission t t Pat liament—it is in fact the step-
ling stone by which they would be enabled to enter
and batter down the walls of the Constitution. They
a mild s• on introduce the questionchurch robbery and
the repeal of Vie Union; and, in proportion as t !ese or
other questions would be more etre active, and more im-
mediately conducive to the interests of their church, the
more would the energies of the Pi tests and the passions
of the people be excited; and, to make matters worse,
they would be more powerful. the removal of the dis-
abilities would greatly increase the Priests' intriguing
at elections. Can any one imagine that the Priests
would be less active or that the freeholder would he
more obed rot to hi; landlord when ti-e contest would
be between Roman Catholic and Protestant, than it was
when between Protestant and Protestant? Everything
in reason and experience poste, that the removal
• ould render the Romanist' more united and more un-
governable. Such are the tea ons on account of which
I would pet turn the Legislature to adhere to the system
exclusion, and for which 1 would earnestly implore
411 ranks and conditions to do their duty, by rallying
round the Church and Constitution in this hour of un-
certainty and danger, tha: that monstrous spiritual
• yranny which has been so baneful to this country
may not he permitted to ei•ter the Legislature. In the
mid.t of the dangers which threaten, the institution of
Brun wick Clubs is of Inexpressible wr rth. I hope sin-
cerely that they will multiply and flt uri.h. ‘Vtiat adds
to their worth is their complete independence, having
rruthing t t do with men in power. If the Duke cf Wei-
iingiou and Mr Peel do their duty, let them be ardently
'typo. ted—if t ey forget it your course is obvious—let
them he firmly oppo.ed.
The •ollowing Psotion was read to the Meeting by

We have receiveJ from a Correspondent a most ably
written Article upon the policy of Russia in her late
campaigns, and on her present contest witl, Turkey.
The writer enters with so much spirit, and appears su
conversant on the various ste jests lie discusses, thst
to give an analysis of the article w fluid be doing an in-
justice to the writer, and deprive out readers f inuch
valuable information. The late hour, however, at which
wereceive) the communication, and the eatreme length
to which it runs, obliges u. to postpone its publication
till to-morrow.

CITY, TWELVE O'CLIWK.
Consols opened this morning at Ing 1 (or the Account, and up
to the present time scarcely a bargain has been dune.
In the Foreign market there is not the least thing doing at pre-
sent, and prices are nominal.
01 fY. HALF-PAST ONE O'CLOCK.

Consols, which remained steady, since the opening, at 8711 j,
have within these few minutes been done at 87a far the Account;
sines which they have again been done at 87i j. This has been
the whole of the fluctuation during the morning, and at present
they may be quoted at the above price. There seems to be a great
pause in the market, and the speculators seem undetermined how
,to act.

The Public are very anxiors for information from Portugal, st.
It is supposed that the affairs of that country cannot continue much
longer in their present state.
To-morrow is settling day in Foreign Securities.
