Lord BEAUCHAMP said, in reference to what bad been
stated on a former evening by a Noble Lord opposite, at the dune
he (Lord B.) presented a Petition from the neighbourhood of Woe
rester, representing the conduct of a Clergyman. be begged te read
a lettli from that individual; be had been charged with publishing
the most inflammatory handbills, and using undue itilleence • this
be positively denied, and stated that be was not the author of
them, neither did be auction their distribution, and begged that he
might be informed who his accusers were?
Lord LYTTLIITON—The Noble Lied has overstated the
charge—what he asserted was that these obsozions handbills could
not have been cireebted without the Minister's knowledge, fee be
was present at the Meeting, and took on notice of them—he was
not charged with composing them. Th. Noble Lord had presided
at the Meeting, and most be aware of these fasts • he most cer-
tainly did not feel justified is giving the name of his informant ; he
was sorry to cast aspenleas on the character of any man, hot be
had felt it kb ditty as a Peer of Parliament to exposer any act of
public delinquency.
Lord BEAUCHAMP said a few words in explanation.
After • few words from Lord BRAYBROOKB,_

Lora iiDON said, ;hat he understood the Noble Lord to say
that be had received a letter, contradict's& what had been stated in
the House. For his own pan, be did not believe that such cunduct
was likely to have taken place, because though be had again and
again made inquiries in cases where attempts bad been made to dia.
credit the Petitions of the people, yet he did not and in one angle
instance that those complaints bad bees borne out by the result of
ids dries.
Lord KENYON presented a Petition from Guildford against

CATHOLIC HALM BILL
The Order at the Day for prowydiss with the adjosseed debate
upon this Hill having haw wowed.
The Archbishop of YORK rose, and addressed the
House as f allows—My Lords, I am anxious 1.01 to
state (and it will be my endeavour to occupy as little
time as possible in doing so) the seasons for ihe vote
which I intend to give upon this qiiistion. My Lords,
previous to the introduction of this Bill into the other
House, and whilst it was still enveloped in that painful
sectesy in which it was so successfully engulphed,whilst
its nature and objects were so carefully concrafed front
view, I had occasion to patent a petition to tt i. Hou e
against the graining of any poi mat power to the Ro-
man Catholics. Ignorant as I was at that tone of the
name and extent of the security foe the E.tablisbed
Church which it bad been so confidently affirmed *odd
' form a satisfactory part of the intended anionic, I .tared
that I would not then pledge myself to support or to
oppose the prayer of the petitioners. But, ho a ever de-
sirous I must natui ally feel to find myself numbried
among those who will vote fur the co:,ce .s.oit uhf gi Asa
to the Roman Catholics. it would, nevertheless, be or-
cessary for me, b.fore I did so, to see that the nate,e
of the security whi:b was to be given to tt:e Established
Church was such as I should conscientiou ly deem
sufficient for its protection. Unless I did so, I think it
will be admitted on all hands that I sl ould be acting
inconsistently with my duty as a Protestant B.shop.
Regarding, then, the question in that prink of view, I
now regret to say that, alter the fullest consideration, I
conceive that the securities contained in the Bill a e not,
in my opinion at leas', by any means soffit, t for the
; urpose intended. There is nothing in any of those
pretended securities to allay those api:reliensions which
may be justly entertained for the safety of the Chinch
of Ireland. As regards the Church os England, it
would be idle fin him to say that d 'acted the
slightest degree of danger—(Heat, heal). RA, I
repeat, these is nothing in these securities of a uPs:ai
tive nature; nor is these any thing to pie•ent a s. pet:.
tion and continuation of tho e conflicts which rave
hitherto existed. The struggle between numbers on the
one side and legal right upon the other wi.l still ',main,
and a series of evils, worse, perhaps, than any which
have yet arisen in that devoted land, will be the i evi-
table result of yieiding to tin chows of tl e Roman Ca-
tholics as is now proposed. It would be insists. us in
me to refer at all to the individuals who have used this
argument. Theism itself is urdeniable. If s-, m ist
assuredly that has taken place in Leland within the
last twelve months is little calculated to rem .se the
apprehensions which have been all along apprehended
by those who are adverse to concession. The peolne of
that country have conducted themselves turbulent'y
and indecorously—(Hear, bear). An maocation •as
fostered by them, by whose clamorous impottuint rs
they sought to achieve their end; and even now that
a measure of concession is prop. sed, the agitators d not
hesita e openly to avow their hostility to it. I could
have wished personally n t to have been called to m ke
these obseivatiens tor I have had the bapi•iness of
living for many years past in habits of in.ionscy and
of sincere tegaid with many Roman Cath .lies i.s my
own immediate neighbourhood, and I can safely say
that men of •greater honour and integrity, or of mine
social and domestic virtue, I never met. But, my
Lords, Ic in even go beyond this in pi eof persons
of the Catholic faith, and I should be wanting in justice
if I forbore to mention some of the con tut of the
most exalted individuals in that c• mmuti ty—l mean
the conduct of the Premier heseditaiy Peer of these
realeast—(Hear, heir, heat). I sty 1 aitou.d be wani-
ng in justice to that bloible individual it I withheld
on this occasion my testimony to tee 'era —uo, that is
not the proper epithet—to the riendly feeling which that
Noble individual has evinced towards he Established
Church of England. I owe it to that Noble Duke to
state, that the site of one of the Protestant churches now
building was his lice gift ; and, rn,,te than that, that
t e Noble Duke not only contributed in a pencil,'
manner towards the purchase of the site of another
church, but that he actually himself laid the first stone.
Independently of this 1 could give many teller in-
stances within my own particular know ledge and ob-
servation of Homan Catholics who have clearly evinced
the most liberal and benevolent intentions towards the
i •stitutions of our Established Church; and, my L .rds,
I must repeat that it is not from the Roman Cath •lics
that I should apprehend soy danger to the Established
Church in this country by the passing of this Bill
The case, however, is widely different in Ireland. The e
the paramount influence of the Catholic Priesthood
over the minds of an ignorant and credulous peasantry
will always be a strong instrument in their bands by
which to work forward to the attainment of their great
object—the restoration of the Chuich ot Rome—(Hear).
The supeistition and credulity of the lower orders

which they can wield at will, and by v hich at any
moment they can agitate and (Intuits the cou
