IT appears requisite your invaluable AMERICAN
SOOTHING SYRUP should be universally knowu, that
its usefulness might be more generally extended. My little girl
had been extremely ill a long time; she had fits' and her bowels
so much affected that her life was &paired of ; doctors and me-
dian* were of 111) avail. We were told that her teeth was the
only cause of her affliction. A friend calling *moo us, who had
seen the happy effects of the Syrup, prevailed upon to to try it ;
she brought us a bottle, and rubbed the child's mouth, and in a
few minutes a most astonishing alteration wok place, the fits left I
her, and she recovered as fast as possible; it requiring only a I
bottle and a half to perfect the cure. Our sorrow was thus, in al
few days, turned into joy.
We are, Madam, your obliged servants,

I , ROMAN CATHOLIC CLAIMS.
AT a GENERAL MEETING of the COM-
MITTEE of PRO FESTANTS of VARIOUS DENO-
MINATIONS of the 0 PIES of LONDON and WF.STMIN-
S I'ER, and their ENVIRONS, held at the LONDON TAVERN,
Biabopagate•creet, the 6th day of May, 1817,
STEPHEN CAT (LEY, Lags In the Chair;
Resolved UnanimoCsly,
1. That since the last discussion in Parliament of the Claims
of the Rontan Catholics, to be admitted to legislative and b:gh
poi:deal power in the Gavernment, no eircurnoance has occurred
to spew the safety or expediency of granting those claim': but,
on the contrary, the known dissatisfactine wirit.h the Roman
Catholics have expressed at the large and almost unlimited con-
cessions preppie.' to he mode by the Bill presented to Parlia-
ment in 1813, the late revival of the order of Jesuits by the
Pope, which furnishes such new and ample means of mischief
and of concert with similar Ports Establishments in this Uni:ed
Kingdom, and the proofs we have recently had in different parts
of Europe of an active revival of the dormant ze.tl of Popery, in
bring'ng into strop!: operation those tenets which mark its into.
lerance and its hostility to :he word Strip:ures, as well as the
peculiar situation of politica afriirs in Europe, furnish the
strongest evidence of the darre at giving Legislative and Hi!),
MHO! Power to Roman Catholics to this Protestant Coutery.
St That at so late a period as the year 1413, the pullic opinion
having been most gravely caressed by Protestants against ad.
minim/ Roman Catholics to legislative and high political power
in the Government of this Cotaery, when is nattitullr two

minster, and their Environs, each of which was sib led by tip.
wards of 60,000 persons, whose places of residence were set
opposite to their sienatures were resented, the one to the,
House of Lords by the Right Honourable Lord Eldon, rite 1.m.!
High Chancellor of Great Britain, and the other to the House of
Commons by Sir William Curtis, Bare. we do no: deem it twee..
sary, barons the introduction of smite speci6.: measure Into Par.
I Bement, to renew our humble Petitioo upon this important 1110./.
jest, especially as the different branches of the Legialature have
repeatedly rejected the Claims in question, so repugnant to the
principles of the British Constitution in Church and State.
S. That although it may trot be necessary to Petition Parlia-
ntent at this moment, yet ..t a period like the present, when ilie
Roman Catholks are using every effort to carry their object by
means, which. although less osteniale than formerly, are rrn-
hably more efficient, we Canna avoid calling upon the Priors .
tant part of the community to exercise a vigilant atteation to this
most vital subject.
4. That the more this great question has been agitated and
considered, the more obvious it appears, that Roman Cstaia.cs
cannot he admitted to Legislative and High Political Power in
this Pratestant Country, without highly endangering if not sub-
verting the great principles of the British Connittition, and those
great Nalonal Acts which secured the Monarchy of these It eaiin.
in the PROTESTANT HOUSE OF BRUNSWICK. It is 3,1
incontrovertible Conetitiolunal Maxim, THA
THRONE, THE PARLIAMENT, AND nut COVER al
MENT OF THIS COUNTRY, ARE FUNDAMENTALLY
PROTES rAN.r." To this principle, pervading every part of
Government jn the State as well as in the Church, anti operating
upon all the Sects and Separatists, as well as upon our excelient
Eccieslastical Establishment, the ruling and religious prineple of
a Roman Catholic is directly hostile; and we are firmly per-
suaded, that no Oaths or Engagements which have been propased
or sugapred, will afford a security against 'lee operation of that
silent, but powerful influence, which will b- always attendant'
upon the Opiniens and Principles of Roman Catholics when in
possession of Legislative and High Political Power, and which
nall,Pot Ite.hattsa mo Aetesioratiat affect upon a Gowns-
mint amentially Protestant.
S. That so far from the concession of legislative and high poli-
tical power being calculated to allay irritation, and pronio:a the
security and strength of the Country, we are persuaded that it
will lead to further demands on the part of the Roman Catholics,
and to jealousy and diicontent on the pan of the Protestants.
And, Amin the measure he adopted, we anticipate, from the
temper and state of parties in this Country, those bitter cantro•
sneaks in Religion and those feuds in Politics which unhappily
prevailed anterior to the Retrolittion of i tsB, and wide, may lead
to consequences the moat fatal to the pr ace and prosperity of ti.is
Empire.
6. That these Resolutions, signed by the Chairman, be in-
serted la the Public Papers.
