His handsome presence, and his promise of exceptional gifts of See also:oratory, led a wealthy See also:uncle, See also:Major-See also:General See also:Daniel McNeill, to adopt him as his See also:heir; and hewas destined for a See also:parliamentary career. During a stay at See also:Florence, Hugh McNeile became temporarily intimate with See also:Lord See also:Byron and Madame de See also:Stael. On returning See also:home, he determined to abandon the prospect of See also:political distinction for the clerical profession, and was disinherited. In 182o he was ordained, and after holding the curacy of Stranorlar, Co. See also:Donegal, for two years, was appointed to the living of See also:Albury, See also:Surrey, by See also:- HENRY

Irving's increasing extravagance, however, soon alienated McNeile. His See also:preaching now attracted much See also:attention; in See also:London he frequently was heard by large congregations. In 1834 he accepted the incumbency of St See also:Jude's, See also:Liverpool, where for the next See also:thirty years he wielded See also:great-political as well as ecclesiastical See also:influence. He repudiated the notion that a clergyman should be debarred from politics, maintaining at a public See also:- MEETING (from " to meet," to come together, assemble, 0. Eng. metals ; cf.

In 1835 McNeile entered upon a See also:long contest, in which he was eventually successful, with the Liverpool See also:corporation, which had been captured by the Whigs, after the passing of the Municipal Reform See also:Act. A proposal was carried that the elementary See also:schools under the See also:control of the corporation should be secularized by the introduction of what was known as the Irish See also:National See also:System. The threatened withdrawal of the See also:Bible as the basis of denominational religious teaching was met by a fierce agitation led by McNeile, who so successfully enlisted public support that before the new system could be introduced every See also:child was provided for in new See also:- CHURCH

As the Tractarian See also:movement in the Church of England See also:developed, he became one of its most zealous opponents and the most conspicuous See also:leader of the evangelical party.

His party came into See also:power in 1801, and he was See also:Speaker of the house from See also:December 18oi to See also:October 1807. At first he was in See also:accord with See also:Jefferson's See also:administration; he approved the See also:Louisiana See also:Purchase, and as See also:early as 1803 advocated the purchase of See also:Florida.

See also:Nicholson (1770-1817) of See also:Maryland, he was a leader of the See also:group of about ten See also:independents, called the " Quids," who strongly criticized Jefferson and opposed the presidential candidature of See also:Madison. By 1809, however, See also:Macon was again in accord with his party, and during the next two years he was one of the most influential of its leaders.
