.~--- r•-• it was thus p. be deteriorated question he must , and it necessarily respect substitute, the paper cur rency, that a Bank Note of 20s. must bear a propor. tirm to the silver coin, which was admitted to be dete riorated in the ratio of 9d. to each shilling. The result of a fair inquiry on this subject was, that whereas the price of gold had been formerly rated too high, it now was rated too low ; the proportion of gold and silver was as 12 to 1, and it followed thence that no gold could remain in the country. It stood thus at this mo ment —that if a man having four dollars, worth twenty-two shillings, he might purchase one pound and two shillings ; but it would not be worth so much in the markets of Europe. He would sup pose tke case of an English merchant wanting to pay £5OO, for which lie got a Bill of Exchange, 400, ounces of gold in Amsterdam, apd employing a • Jew agent to procure it for him, this agent would. procure 190 ounces of gold Tor the sum ; and as ICIO' would liquidate the debt, 30 ounces would remain to himself. Thie.happened every day, and must con tinue to happen while the present system continued. ' . Here the Hon. Gentleman read a document to shew We nature,of the traffic carried on in Gnineas.3— The only reason why gold was exported was, the high premium on it allove the value in the market. In the time of King William, a guinea, if good, was ' the standard ; after which time, guineas rose in value s ;he silver deteriorated, and were, at differentlimes, . current for 25, 26, and 90s. ; and yet, notwithstand .... the unfavourable state of exchange a t those pe . ds, , the gold did not leave the kingdom. On this subject, it had been laid down by Lord Liverpool, thatif the people were obliged to t:tke the gold coin lit 1696 at the old standard, they would have • welted it down ; but it did not happen so ' be cause it was allowed to find its-own level ; and - It was worth while to consider whether it was not better to let guineas pass current at the rateable value of the currency of the country, as the coiners would not find the same benefit they now did, and it would tend to facilitate the return to cash pay ments. He was aware that it would in that case be necessary to repeal the Act of Geo. I. which operated at present as a penal law, and yet was entirely with out efficacy, for it was notorious that there were daily and hoUrly instan. - es of guineas being offered for sale -a-there were agents all over the kingdom, and they were sold at the rate of half-a-crown per guinea.— What was the public estimation in Ireland? Was it noe true that rents were stipulated by lease- to be paid in guineas, and landlords obliged their tenants to put.- chase guineas for the purpose. These were unpleasant facts to state, but he could not shut his eyes against them. The Hon. Gentlemah then proceeded to ani madvert on the danger resulting from the power of varying the denomination of the currency ; and said, that when copper coin was first introduced, Govern. *tent were so aware of tkis, that the inscription it bore " for change and charity," was an evidence of it. He was inclined to agree in the interrogatory put bey his Hen. Friend who closed the debate last night, ' when he asked them ,whether they would acknow ledge that there existed any standard at all ? and he he believed that the word was not used in any of the pablications on the Report of the Committee. The question was simply this—were Bank notes or gold to be our standard ? This should be answered ; and is none but Bank netes were to be our standard, 'be it so, and call a guinea the 21-40th part of a two. pound note, and not a pound note the 20-21st part of a pound of bullion. The Hon. Gentleman then refuted the arguments on the abstract nature of a standard, and would be glad to know from them whether there' Was such a thing as abstract payment fur an abstract Anner ? Mr. ROSE spoke in explanation—as also did Mr. HORNER. Lord CASTLEREAGH, in a speech of great length, supported the Counter-Resolutions of Mr. VANNITTART. Mr. HORNER and Lord CASTLEREAGH see.— explained. Mr. MORRIS rose amidst a cry of adjourn, end addressed the House at considerable length as to the legality of the tender of Bank notes. He instanced a case which had occurred on circuit, in 1801, and vas afterwards argued in the Court of Common Pleas, by which it appeared that a creditor had refused Bank notes in liquidation of a debt, and demanded current coin—Which right the Judges ultimately de cided in his favour. It was then moved that the debate be - adjourned. The House resumed, the Chairman reported pro gress, and leave was given to sit again this day.

The brave General Bcccic an, who commanded.a part of the Prussian army in the ruinous campaign of 1806, and who rendered him self conspicuous by his subseqeent defence of Lubeck, had the honour to direct the successful efforts of his oppressed countrymen on the above occasion also. That the struggle which thus seems to have been commenced, will be continued by Prussia with any effect, is extremely doubtful ; but there is every ap pearance that the rencontre in qWestion will be eagerly seized upon by Naeoceox, as a pretext for the com mencement of hostilities on the frontiers of Russia. Mean time, letters from France and Holland continue ' to confirm the report that the Emperor is about to leave Paris for the North of Germany, adding, that I BERTHIZR is about to have an important command.
