ERFAIL Ahkrman CoKrrs, in purfuance of his no tice, rofe to mole for leave to bring in a Bill to repc.il the Aas of the 37th and 38th of his prefent Majesty refpeaing the Mize of Bread. The re itions which were contained in thefe Acts, had i only not proved elfes - tual, but had really pro ilneed conliderable injury : they had given an op portunity to certain pinions, of which he was ibrry to fay they had availed thendelees, of a ailing and filling the Markets as they pleaded. It was for these reafons that the Magiitrates of London thought the Aas in qii:ftion ought to be repealed, and then the Law would hand as it was fixed by the 3t ft Geo. 11. He by no means meant to fay that that was perfea, hut it certainly was much more fo than thole which lie now propoled to re peal. He hoped to fee the time when all reltric- Lions whatever might he taken away upon this rub. jea,becaufe they tended to no good pupa's: what ever, at it was every mitt's inteselt to raife the Markets, and nobody's interelt to lower them.— He concluded with moving for leave to bring in the Bill to repeal the laid Acts. Sir J. ANDERSON rofc to fecund the Motion.— lie laid it wasundoubtedly the objea of thole who brought in the Ans which it was now propoled to repeal, to make Bread cheap, but the effea did not anfwer the intention, bceatife they had enabled interefled pet lons to raile• the price of Bread at pleafure. He all, Ade.% that he hoped the lime was not far &film when the Aspze on Bread might he taken off en! rely.. Ann:her good harvelk would enable the Legiflature to adopt that mealure, and then we Ihould have the price t : Bread remslated by the price of Wheat, aria not tl. , ice of 141iv.it regulated by that of Bread, as we 3 was. the cafe. The CisaNcbeecac of the Exciirusirc tales, he prelim:eel the worthy Alderman eitl hot Rl.:an to make his Motjon quite fa extensive as to repeal the whole of the Ache in queition, becaufe, independ ent of the regulations yelp:Cling the affac of bread, they contained Claufes relpe&ag the adulteration and improper mixture of Hour, which he ftippofed it-was not intended to repeal. Mr. Alderman Cuaris laid, he propofcd to re peal the whole, bec.ltin: the former Aels which would be in force la lien theft were repealed, con tained the nee:Tory provisions upon that fubjea ; [the Atls beitrg read pro formal lie ficid, that as it had been thought proper co give Bakers an addi tional allowance in consequence of the additional duty on falt, he lhould propole that that allowance should be continued. - ....... Leave was given to bring in the Bill, and Al dermen Curtis and Sir . 1: Anderfon were ordered to prepare and bring in the fame. - • SUPPLY.

Thq expellee, however, which was by no means fo exceffi n ve in the proportion as the Hon. Gentleman had deferibed, was more than counter balanced by the matt.rial acedllon of ilrength which the Dritiflt'Empire had derivt.d from the i'rdon. Mr. Rosso:: laid, that if be was to under - (land that it was the intention of Government IPecdily after the peace to difband the cavalry, he flrould decline all further oppofition. Th.: SECRI.TARY at WAR remarked, that the I-lon.

Mr. VANSITTARY admitted, that a large mili tary force was to be maintained in Ireland, to which England mull largely contribute ; but be begged it to be reeolleßed, that Ireland in return contributed her proportion to the maintenance of the whole Navy of the Empire. In the current year the expence of that department was fever). teen millions, of which Ireland paid two millions, a fum which could not be had from her only for the Union- Mr. CORRY deprecated any obfervations tending to impugn the Articles of the Union as calculated only to unite unpleafant feelings perhaps in both countries. That contra& was immutably fettled, and it could anfwer no good purpofe to briug it into difcuffion. He wifhed to notice to the Hon.

Mr. ROBSON oppofed this, on the ground that 5,000,0001. bad been already obtained for the fame fisvice, one half of which was yct unac courted for. The CHANCF.LLOR of the EICHEVEL laid, that the account defired by the Hon. Gentleman would be made out at the end of the year, as ufual, and laid before the Houfe immediately after the Re cefs. He correded 'the ftatement of the Hun.

'The Houle having refolvtd itfclf into a Com mittee of Ways and Means, The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQIJER oblei ved, that as it had been thought proper to vnlarge the time of payment fromTuelday to Saturday laft, an ;literal of aid. per day for four days accrued on the fame, it would be therefore neeeffary to move this charge In the Committee. He therefore moved, that it be the opinion of the Committee that all Monies to be received by the Calhier of the Bank of England on account of thole Exchequer Bills, be applied to the Payment of the Interat of the lime. The Refolution was agreed to. The Chancellor of the Exchequer then o'oferved, that as the meafure for funding Exchequer Bills had already hiccceded, and as the Houle had al ready agreed to the propriety of itruing more, he would move that it be the opinion of the Com mittee that the Sum of Five Millions be railed by Exchequer Bills. • Mr. Komori Tore to exprcfs furprife that the Right Hon. Gentleman Mould fuddenly call for fo large a fum of money, and that at a time when there was hardly half a Houk. The CHANCELLOR of the ESCHI:o,..HER replied, that he only wanted to carry into dial a meafure to which the Houle had already given its fanetion. The Houle, in agreeing to fund certain outftand ing Exchequer Bills, had alfn decided that new ones fhould he railed. He was not Therefore tak ing the Houle by furprife ; and he fhould be athamed, if he brought forward any meafure ofi this kind without giving proper notice. But the bufinefs was to gn through various other Rages,' .hen he hoped there would be a fuller atten dance; and then the Hon. Gentleman would have an opportunity of making his objiaions to the meafure. Mr. ROBSON laid, he did not mean to ()Ilea to the meafure Ufa: for he was petledly aware that Exchequer Bills would be v.-anted : he only objeCted to the fudden manner it was brought for ward, and when there were not many more than 20 Members prefcnt. Mr. Bs acc obferved, that fuck taunts as thole which fell from the Hon. Gentleman had frequent. ly been thrown out againft the Houfe, relative to the fewncfs of Members attending at particular times. Thefe he conceived to be extremely nn juit ; becaufe, after a full Houle had once agreed to adopt a meafure, it was not necefrary to have a full attendance during every fubfequent nage of it. Every perfon, both in and out of that Houfe, knew that a frelh atm was to be made of Ex chequer Bills ; that they were wanted ; and there was no furprife in moving• to vote them at this time. The Refolution was then agreed to, and the Report of the Committee ordered to be received I'o-morrow. The Houfe having refolved Wilt' into a Corn mittee on the Militia Ballot Bill, The S&CRFTARY AT WAR moved to fill up the blank left for the number to he baliotted for, with two-fifths of the former number.—Agreed to, and the Report to be rece6ed To-morrow.
