POSTSCRIPT.

SATURDAY.

We understand that a bill is now in preparation by several influential Members of the Country party, not only for restraining the interference of any foreign powers within this realm, but also for preventing the ad- mission of British subjects into confraternities, orders in brotherhood, or even entering into any oath or bond of allegiance to any foreign sovereign. —Morning Herald.

At a dinner given to Colonel Sibthorp by his constituents on Wednes- day, Mr. Christopher, M.P., adverting to the Ministerial plans for repres- sing the Papal insolence, "hoped there would be no paltry triflin,g, no shuffling in the matter "—

" If any attempt were made to exclude Ireland or their colonies, or any of them, from the benefits of any legislative enactment, he would reject the bill, preferring to leave the question to be settled by the people of England, who would protect the Sovereign and her people from the late infamous act of priestly usurpation."
