liffious equality in the eye of the law , and will not willingly tolerate in any relig ious denomination civil power , preeminence , or ascendancy over any other . " 2 nd That the settlement of the Church question on the basis of perfect equality is essential to the establishment of that entire equality , civil and religious , which alone can or ou ^ ht to produce content . " 3 rd . That the present Irish church establishment is at once a liad ^ e of conquest and a legalized robbery of the Catholic population , which—while it insults and wrongs the people—convulses society , and impresses the Catholic peop le with a belief that the legislature which sanctions its continuance is hostile to the peace and prosperity of the kingdom .
" 1 . That all laws which impose penalties on the ecclesiastics of any church , or prohibit the performance of spiritual functions , or the exercise of ecclesiastical rights , order , or jurisdiction , are inconsistent with the constitution of these realms , or require peculiar oaths or tests from the members of any religious persuasion , practically declare the parties affected thereby to be inferior in the eye of the law to their fellow subjects , and ought to bo at once absolutely and unconditionally repealed . " o . That religious equality is inconsistent with the exclusion from public offices of any subject of the crown because of his religious faith , and that all such exclusions should be at once abolished .
" 6 . That we consider it the special duty of the Irish liberal members of Parliament to urge upon the attention of the legislature at all convenient times the grievances endured by the poor and friendless Catholics in all parts of this empire , so far as these grievances depend upon bad laws , or a bad administration of them ; and that in order to enable members of Parliament efficiently to discharge their duty in these matters , we respectfully request of the Catholic bishops and clergy at home in Great Britain and in the colonies , to supply , at their earliest convenience , the statistical and other information , without which it will be impossible to have the claims of these unprotected classes adequately laid before Parliament .

What Will Come Out Of It All? Cabinet Co...
WHAT WILL COME OUT OF IT ALL ? Cabinet councils have sat from day to day dur ing the past fortnight : and these councils sat , says the Morning Herald , two , three , and even four hours , and yet the Times is silent . Why ? because they indicate in its own vigorousphraseology of a former day , a " great fact , " and the Herald proceeds to describe the fact . It is indeed momentous . " The Cabinet has existed for nine months , united , " and now these Cabinet councils are held ; so says the Herald . Assuredly the monthly nurse must have been sent for ? Yes , that is the " joyful fact" ! Filled with the coming triumph , the exulting Herald proceeds to deal out Homeric taunts against all and sundry . It makes merry with " Paddy ; " gibes at Cobden , " chapfallen , though cleverer , a little , than the impudent clique of which lie is the voluble spokesman ; " cites as its authority for saying " it won't do , " " the venerable patriarch of reform , Joseph
TTirme : " and foresees its own vanouishinsr of the Hume ; " and foresees its own vanquishing of the Times . But it tells us more , and the more is valuable . The Cabinet whose knocker is tied up , and whose monthly nurse is sent for , is doing well . The Herald is even descriptive . The Conservative Cabinet , we are told , is " at the opening of this present November , cheerful and resolute in countenance and attitude . " This is very cheering . But the Herald has yet further hopes in store :
it forcacon that the Opposition , will not oppose * ; the Opposition is already beaten . The Herald cites the Globe as confirming its views , in so many words , that " no party or leader in the House of Commons can be benefited by the premature expulsion of Lord Derby ' s Government . " But " this is not all , " exclaims ihoHerald ; and then it quotes again : — " We most unaffectedly trust that the present Cabinet will be able to hold its own for at least a considerable
portion of the next session . " Good heavens ! here is pleasant intelligence for Derby and Herald . A part of next session un « disturbed ! What if the Iladical party do have leisure " to amalgamate its own members with Lord John's more intimate supporters P" What if Lord John do take time to consider the course after he shall have heard Mr . Disraeli's great schemer The Derby Government is at least promised part of a session , undisturbed . It is true that Lord John ' s plan is confessedly unknown , even to his friends ; since he will not shape his plan until lie knows the plan of Mr . Disraeli ; and if Mr . Disraeli shall propose to act
promptly , Lord -John , on his side , may act promptly too ; and then tho fraction of a session may be denied to undisturbed possession . Still the mere talk of 11011-di . sturbanee is pleasing to tins heraldic mind ; and accordingly into that open session i ( . marches with its large promise of what is to be brought , forth by " tho existence , lor upwards of nine months , of a Conservative Cabinet , united , " and ( lie daily dehating of two , three , and even four liours , in Cabinet Councils . The very arithmetic han an imposing eil ' Nino months of Conservative existence , and fourteen days of protracted incubation . luHtead of ridiridits mus ; - really one might almost expect a whole Hock of ridiculi mures I
Joijicopman Lkaiiuk Against America. " ....
JOIJICOPMAN LKAiiUK AGAINST AMERICA . " . Fiiom tho moment al ; which tho Democratic Convention of Baltimore proclaimed ( jienoral I'iereo to be Um candidate of that parly for tho presidency of tho United » Stal . cs , we have never cutcrlainod a doubt of Iiim success ; and our conviction on this point Iuih been materially strengthened by Iho divisions and blunders of the American WiiigH . " Wo injure the reador that wo aro
liberty of trade , no doubt can be entertained that the period during which he may probably conduct the affairs of the United States will witness a vast and rapid extension of their own resources and of their relations with this country . On the score of the internal policy of the Government no apprehensions need be entertained . " The less so , since , as the Times has so truly indicate d in the foregoing passage , prosperity of every kind , to the commerce and to the arms of the Union , lies before it in its path .
not quoting from any old number of our own faper , but from the Times of Wednesday last t is satisfactory to us to observe that the leading journal is , and has been , so -well informed oa American affairs . We have no doubt that the writer states the literal truth , when he says that he has seen the result from the commencement . But let us continue the prospect in the language of our contemporary . "As General Pierce is known to be favourable to low tariffs and
The sole want of confidence to which the writer confesses , is in the foreign policy of the American Government , which is expected to require " an unusual amount of firmness and prudence in the new President . " We have as little doubt that these qualities will be demanded in . the new President , as that they will be supplied in Franklin Pierce ; but we view that necessity without any of the apprehensions conveyed in the tone of the Times . The prospect , indeed , excepting to those who are fastidious for this working
world , or too timid , is one of the brightest , both for America and for Europe . It is true that new impulses have taken possession of the American . Republic . " A new President , elected at tho very moment when the passion of conquest and aggrandizement seems to have possessed itself of the nation with increasing violence , will naturally find it more difficult to control these mischievous and unprincipled tendencies . " Strange terms these for a writer of the nation now holding so largely by conquest ; but let that pass . It is true that Mr . Fillmore " seems to share neither
the passions nor the enthusiasm of his fellowcitizens , " and that in that respect he signally differs from Franklin Pierce , who enlisted in the Volunteers with the expectation of serving even no a UOIUUUOU ooldlcr on . + Jifi field of McXlCO . Although we may take exception to the manner in which the Times notes these facts , wo are willing to compound for any annoyance at the terms , by satisfaction at seeing that the force of the facts themselves is appreciated by the leading public writer of England . At all events , the public is taught to understand the strength and direction of the political forces in the West .
The necessity for that knowledge is urgent ; ^ as the crisis may come at a day ' s notice . Tho Times most usefully draws attention to another point : — " Among other circumstances that may tend to tho gratification of these passions , it seems that the Navy Department under Mr . Fillinore . lias gradually formed a squadron of unusual strength , now lying ready for use in the harbours of the United States . The expedition against Japan in still the motive or pretext for tho equipment for this armament , and we have no doubt that tliia squadron does consist of a line-of-battlo whip , three or four steam-frigates , find some sloops ot vvar ,
equal in their respective ; kinds to the vessels ot any navy in Europe . But , compared to the existing naval forces of some other countries , hucIi a squadron is i » c 0 " " biderahlc , and we should watch with interest , amounting to wonder , the advance of such a force , numbering in all but 219 guns , against tho unknown but not m " considerable powers of resistance of tho Kinpire Japan . In tho present aspect of affairs with > S l . ' ^ are , however , by no means satisfied that . Japan 1 H . \ . true duHiiuiilion of this little licet ; and it will C ( 'ri , ! "'^ be extraordinary if this important detachment ot W American navy bo sent across tho Eastern ArclnpelfR ; . and entirely out of reach , at a time when tho rolnU " of iho United States with any European power arc " "
settled or insecure . " . . Wo believe , indeed , thai , tho squadron w 'J " tended for Japan ; but tho remark ot our c . temporary , that , iih a , time is near when ' *> , ; u uho in imminent nearer homo , tli « HquaUn >» ^ Hcarcely be Hcnt no great a distance , 1 H llUi ' ,,, || lU man who undemtanclH public movements .
