This day the Term commenced, • and the Ceintt
was opened with the usual cerenoniee.
Mr. ATTORN et-GENERAL MOVCII•fot- tl rule to
chew cause why a criminal itiformitioit thoutd.not
be filed against a person of the name of 'cubing,
the publisher of The Cambrian, or Weekly In.
telliwencer of the Principality of !Vales, for a
libel in his paper of the 9th of June,-1810.
The Learned Counsel plated, that the circum-
stances under which this rule was taoved for were
of a peculiarly aggravated natere The Bishop of
Derry, from the time of his translation to his pre-
sent diocese, had occupied himself in promoting the
industry of the county in which he lived, particu-
larly in some of the rude and wild districts which
were to be found in that part of Ireland. This
he did by encouraging manufactures; and he en-
couraged the manufacturer by the I,,ati of money,
at, as the Attorney-General conceived, lower than
the legal interest. lie took no part in the pro.
fits of the trade. His surprise and pain might be
conjectured at seeing copied into several of the
English prints, and those in the North of Ireland, a
paragraph importing that he had been Gazetted as a
bankrupt, and observing upon the intelligence in
the "most unwarrantable manner. This paragraph
originally appeared•in The Cambrian, and it con-
cluded with the pithy observation, that this singular
species of pecuniary failure was the fate of a
Bithop who bad the most lucrative diocese in
Ireland.
Lord ELLENROROUGH...—." Mr. Attorney-Gene.
ral, the insinuation is sufficiently unbecoming to
warrant the rule. Take your rule."
%Ir. ATTORNET.GENERAL.-44 My Lord, there
arc other papers against which a similar motion is
to be directed. It is scarcely necessary to enlarge
upon the injury to feeling and to character which
must have been done by the wide circulation of this
report. I believed it for a time ; and it was re.
ported with so much confidence, that I am afraid it
was generally believed. I have to move for a rule
against The Morning Chronicle. Mr: Dampier
moves against The Morning herald and The
Statesman. Mr. Garroar is to make similar mo..
lions against others."
Mr. Justice Le BLANC.-4( Pray will you ont
think It enough•to fix on the original publisher, sad

Mt. ATTORNEY GCNERAL..—" We intend to.
move against every paper that we know. They all
added insulting comments to the original calumny.

that in the affidavits in support of each rale,. the
Bishop' alluded to in the paragraph objected to was
pointed out with sufficient precision.

It is with inexpressible pleasure, we aro enabled
to give the Report of the proceedings at the Ad .
journed General Meeting of the CATUOT.IC3 of
IItELANID, in Dublin, on Friday. Every thing re.
lative to IRELAND is most dear and most interesting
to u 3. Itt proportion as IRELAND is persecuted,
in that same degree is our lure for her increased ; and
is the CATUOLICE of IRELAND have more than their
full share of persecution, so have they more
of our regard and affection than any other classes
of people io all his MAJESTY'S Realms. The re.
suit of the recent Meeting, therefore, has given us
a pleasure we have no means of expressing. When
the heart swells with delight, words' sink beneath
the effort of telling that triumph in any adequate
form ! We had a, good deal of apprehension,
that some enemies to the Imo CATIIOLICS
would have seduced them from their duty of peti.
tioning Parliament. A false idea of dignity was
employed for that purpose.—We do not mean, that
those who suggested the idea in their public speeches,
were unfaithful to their conscience, and their
cause! No ! we have no such supposition ! But
they were themselves deceived. In the same spirit
ns this idea of dignity was introduced with, and fur
the same purpose, another notion was batched, and
tenderly fostered...this was, that the Catholic ques.
tion_wasitgain started to divert the Irish from the
pursuit of a REPEAL of the Um tom. Astonishing !
that this should be urged, and should have any in.
Mance, even for one moment. Why ! it was not
passible for either question to be agitated, and
not to forward the other. The discussion of
a REPEALS Resolutions relative to a Repeal,
drew the Catholic and the Protestant hearts
nearer together by a communion of inte-
rests. A discussion of the Catholic claims bad
the same effect; for whilst the Ptotestant
tened to the eloquence which poirtreyed the depri-
VtielOAS of the Catholic, he *wit with sympo..
thy, knowing his own and that tote CA.
*EMILIO had exclusive wrongs to hear, was no
comfort to his heart! It was well judged, there.
fore, by the COlllllO/I tNEIiTs to indttectisti`Ca-

more general question of REPEAL was in discus.
siun. It, at once, weakened the cause of Repeal,
and almost touched into the torpor of death, the
cause of Catholic Emancipation: Theist Provi.
deuce, that this Meeting in Dublitrhu developed
and destroyed those artifices! liti4 Imre, it is pro.
