THE PAPAL AGGRESSION,

A T A MEETING of the INHABITANTS of
rl TRANMERE, Cheshire, on THURSDAY EVENING,
November 21st, 1850, -
Mr. DAVID ROSS in the Chair,
The following Addresses to her Most Gracious Majesty the
Queen, and to the Lord Bishop of the Diocese, were unani-
mously agreed to :

"TO GER MOST GRACIOUS MAJESTY (WERE VICTORIA.
"The humble Address of the Inhabitants of Tranmere. in the
county of Chester, in Vestry assembled.
" MAY IT PLEASE YOUR MAJESTY,—
" We, your Majesty's dutiful subjects, the inhabitants of
Tranmere, in your ancient and loyal county of Chester, venture
to approach your Majesty with their assurance of devoted
attachment to your Royel Person, and of nnflin
to your Crown and Government.

" Sincerely attached to those Protest principles which
happily seated the House of Bruns • - upon the throne of
these realms, they regard, with fe • gs of surprise and indig-
nation, the attempt recently m by a Foreien Pntpnt.t._.

•••....,. a ey w C uy a rurelgu rotentate—a
Romish Bishop—to intrude is schismatic doctrines and
authority upon this free d enlightened country, by pre-
suming to confer titles d nominate Papal Bishops to terri-
torial districts in En^ nd.

" And, whilst A sincerely support those laws which so
abundantly pro t the civil and religions rights pf every.class
of our fellow übjectat we consider this presumptuous act of
the Papal See a daring encroachment, not only on your
Majesty's supreme prerogative, as spiritual and temporal head
of the State, but a direct invasion of the rights and privileges
of the English Chu ch as by law so long established, as well as an
attempt to revive religious domination and intolerance over the

People: of this country

-"'We, therefore, humbly, but most anxiously, hope that
your Majesty will speedily adopt such decided measures for the
peremptory repression of this insidious attack of the Bishop of
Rome which your Majesty, as the defender of the Protestant
religion, shall consider necessary for the purpose of vindicating
the outraged Church and Constitution of this country—
maintaining, at the same time. their rights, their honour,
and their independence, in all their integrity.
"In conclusion, we pray Almighty God that He will be gra-
ciously pleased to continue to this hitherto favoured land the
blessings of our Reformed religion, in true Protestant purity
and holiness, and to vouchsafe to your Majesty a long and
prosperous reign over a grateful and united Christian people."

"TO THE RIGHT REV. THE LORD BISHOP OF CHESTER.
" MAY IT PLEASE YOUR LORDSHIP,—
" We, the undersigned, the Minister, Churchwardens, and
Congregation of St. Catherine's Church, and others, the inha-
bitants of the district parish of Tranmere, in Bebington, in
your Lordship's diocese, deem it right to approach your
Lordship at the present time with an assurance of our sincere
respect for your personal character, and of our reverence for
the sacred office to which you have been raised in our National
Church.

" We have seen, with deep regret, the increased and in-
creasing influence of Romanism in our Protestant Church and
in our country at large, and have beheld, with indignation, the
late endeavours of the Bishop of Rome to confer titles with
unlimited spiritual jurisdiction.
" We consider this to be an invasion of the rights of the
Crown, and an attempt to restore a tyranny from which our
Church and people were mercifully delivered at the glorious
Reformation.

" We assure your Lordship of our determination, with God's
help, to uphold the supremacy of the Crown, the independence
of our Church, the rights of conscience, and those principles of
Protestantism which it has been so long the privilege of
Englishmen to enjoy.

" We pray the Divine Head of the Church may give to your
Lordship and other chief pastors of it wisdom and strength to
uphold the supreme importance of God's pure Word, and the
independence of the National Church."

'ie Address to the Bisbop,Clihas only lain for signature
a few days, has already been signed by between 800 and 900 of
the inhabitants. It is proposed to he presented by deputation
to his Lordship, should he be in Chester; and, if not, then it
will be transmitted by the proznot rs.
