Sir IL INGLIS said he had several Petitions to present. None
of them were cast is a• Co Martin mould. These Petitions expressed
the unprompted opinion of the petitioners, and were all opposed to
Catholic Emancipation. The Gist was from the Archdeaconry of
Bab, aipned by 57 Clergymen. • Here the Hon Member read a
ON of the Petitions, 41 in number: they came from various stele.
bodies in Sfotland and England and [rum different parishes.
With respect to Scotland, no doubt, he believed, could be eater.
seined that the majority of the people there were opposed to Con.
cesaion. This would be.furtber proved by a Partial which he
Embuld soon present front the Inhabitants of Edinburgh. The ap-
peal of the Church of Scotland deserves the greater attention, as it
had no representatives either in that or the other House of Perlis,.
seem. •In one of these Petitions, that from the Vicar and Curate of
Ic.nereshoroogb, the petitioners prayed the attention of Parliament
to tbcCollege of hlaynootb. He should tale's future opportunity
of calling the attention of the House to this subject. It appeared
must extraordinary that England should be taxed fur the support of
an establishment in which doctrines were taught which Protestants
believed to be idolatrous.and damnable. With respect to the Ms.
Maters from the Church of England, front the vast number of
,mitions presented by them, little doubt.could remain that the ma-
fty of that body were oppOsed to concession.
