He found, according to the provisions of the Bill about to be discussed, that the Governor and Company of the Bank of England, through the experienced agency of its Directors for the time being, had made tolerably good bargain for themselves ; and therefore .he was desirous of , learning what pains, and wHether the properest, had already been taken by that corporation to prevent thifacilities of, and thereby the temptations to, for gery? He wished to know distinctly if anything had been done on this subject by the Bank, or even were likely to be done? - The present notes issued iby the Bank were, in his opinion, most slovenly as Ito execution.

The friends and supporters of this admirable In stitution dined together on Saturday, at the Free masons' Tavern. The Chair was taken by Lord kite- NORCHY, supported by Lord SALTOUN, the Earl of BREDALBA NE, Sir JOHN SINCLAIR, and numerous other distinguished individuals. The cloth having been withdrawn, the usuaLtoasts were drank with strong demonstrations of loyalty. The Children of the Institution were then intro duced, and paraded the room in their Highland cos tume, and iu the strictest order. The Noble CHAIRMA N rose and said, that be la mented the duty of advocating the cause of these poor children had not devolved upon some one more able to do it justice. The boys whom they saw around them, with very few- exceptions, were the orphans of soldiers and sailors who had fallen gal lantly struggling fur their country's glory—(Ap iilausr.) Considering, therefore, that they owed the greatness of the British name, and the security of their lives and property to the sacrifice of these he- Ots, he was sure they would willingly acknowledge the debt by drinking most heartily " Success to the Caledonian Asylum.' The toast was drank with great enthusiasm, and the boys sang " Scots wha ha'e" very creditably. General TURNER returned thanks in the name of, the Institution with much feeling and eloquence. He described the funds to be in a flourishing state. Lord SALTOUN rose to propose " The health of their Noble Chairman,7 and to express their thanks for the talent and the zeal with which he supported the Institution—(Great applause). The toast was drank with fervent applause. Lord GIENORCHT, in returning thanks, said, that to be zealous in furthering such objects as those of the Caledonian Asylum was not a merit, but the sim ple discharge uf an imperative duty. Indeed he should consider it a disgr ace to be less zealous than he was in their support—(Applause). Sir J. SINCLAIR health having been drank, he re turned thanks, and expatiated upon the honourable distinctions of the Highland character. All over Europe the Highland garb was a sure passport to respect and esteem. He concluded by proposing as a toast. " May they never forget the costume and honour of their ancestors." The health of General Turner and Colonel William. son, two of the Directors, was drank, with thanks for, their active exertions in behalf of the Institution. General TL'l. i returned ;hanks. Several other distinguished supporters of the danian Asylum were toasted, and severally rectum*, thanks. A handsome Collection was Made. The Earl of LIVERPOOL could assure the Noble Lo: d, whose anxiety on so serious an occasion was perfectly just, that he 'believed no expense had been spared, nor had any stretch of exertion been wat►t icb, on the part of that munificent establishment known by the distinction of the Bank of England,•to realise the hopes of that Company, and the expecta tioni of the Public, with regard to the prevention of forgeries in imitation of their accredited notes. After no inconsiderable labour, and after from twenty to thirty thousand pounds-had been spent for this me titorious object, and when a certain note, supposed and proncninced to be inimitable, was produced, what, in reality, had been the result? Why, and within the space of twenty-four hours, this new note was imitated at.once. , Tiros were all the expense to which the Bank had been successively put, and all,. the trouble it hadtakert to insure an inimitable note, entirely lost;• and the most effectual step, under' these circumstances, was to withdraw the one pound and two pound notes from circulation, which had been nearly done, thus leaving no smaller than five pound Bank notes. • Loid KING contended, that the current Bank notes were most unsatisfactory.in point of execution. If this paper were compared -with that issued by the North and Scotch Banks, engraved on steel, their Lordships would instantly see the inferiority of the Bank of England notes. TUE PENSIONS BILL The Earl of LIVERPOOL then moved the Order of the Day, for summoning their Lordships on the third reading of the Bill entitled, ".An Act to con firm an. entered into by the Trustees, under an Act of the last Session of Parliament, for apportioning the burden occasioned by the Military and Naval Pensions and Civil Superannuation, with the Governor and Company of the Bank of England."- Lord KING, upon the question being put, re minded their Lord,hips that the present Bill had now arrived at its third and final stage; and so highly did it appear to rank in the estimation of its Noble Mover, that the Noble Earl himself had not thought it necessary to say one word in its defence. But lie (Lord King) had the misfortune to view the measure in.an unfavourable light; for, in his opinion, it was a most foolish and hurtful measure. To the very Jews in the City it presented a stumbling. block, and to Ministers it was Omer fooli.shness—(Laughter).-. What, for instance, could be imagined More foolish than for Government, when,the funds'were low; la conclude such a barg a in with t he B an k o f_ England, by anticipating the contingencies for a period of tithe years? Suppose it to rest upon thecontinu,alice of peace, then the bargain coulsi pot be a4iantitgeopi and, in the recurrence of,hostilities 'it preoccupied the resources of the country ; and;tl;etefore, in either' case, no such bargain ou g ht . belie he'en' We bad heard alternately of y era of traniiildn'ftorti war. to 'peace, and also of year's of c'Citillaiati4e scarcity and. contrasted. .s.upo•rib it nOne4 bne this' year had. ditert4 iiiinkiritirectnryears=tinfanick n . .. • .. . . ~ a year of dupery, in which his Majesty's Alinivers had been duped by the Bank anti duped by the Bourbons.. Bad, homever, as their plan actually was, Minister; had not d one j ust i ce to i ts principle; ' for, upon that principle, it was doubtful whether they might not have raised ten millions a year, even for a century to come. He could regard the present Biil in no other light than es an experiment to compro mise between Loans and a Sinking Fiord. Depre cating this species of legerdemain in finance, he must• describe it as more . worthy of eonjutors than Mi nisters. 'He should couclude with moving, as an Amendment to the Bill, " Thaothe Lords Commis-. sioners of his.Maiesty's Treasury be directed to ex tend the operation. of the proposed Act,. by !Acing thus authorised to raise ft orn the .Battit_ of_Asigitedi • a sum not exceeding ten millions each year, and every year, b' the operation Offelled Stogie -Cur one hundred years"— ( Laughing ); '." '' - - - 7 • .Lord.BEXLlLY;sonahis Amendment being ppt,i4( - fended the arrangement' made between his Majmty's' Goverment and the Bank of Englerd, as tenAng to equalise the burthens of the country, by diVidilig' them over the inter v al o f forty-fire years. lie w ould admit that such an adjustment might have been ob•- jecticinable in former times; but when their Lordships looked to the amount of taxation borne by the present generation, there appeared no tml - airnessiti buttipg off the bklance to the period of forep6ire rears, when it was to be hoped that the deattl on posterity Might cease. Wi:h this division of burthens; we be queathed ,to,our posterity not only a great accetsfeti of military glory, which had been acquired by the war, but also such an ascenda ncy in the Councils of Nation's -as Would enable us to ptes.erve that peace, which, it was to be hoped,.would repay all oursacri fices in the attainment of it. We hag borne the weight of three hundred millions of taxes ; and he could not adroit, on a review of all circumstances, 'that this country was iu the situation which the,Noble Lord supposed. The course of his Majesty's Government with the Bank of England had been ho nesty, nor had they found reason to reproach the conduct of the Batik. It .was considered to be ad visable for Government to take the very first °Nor tunity that occurred to endeavour by some Pleasure to prevent the pressure on the money market from yearly loans. lie could - nWthink, upon the whole, that either a mere. reasonable or inure expedient mode of relicf could easily have been adopted, and: whereby such advantages could have been given to the Three per Cents. He therefore-could not help concluding that the Noble Lord (King) Irel no sound • intention of persisting in the Anreadment, by *which he appeared to expect the raising of the sum of ten millions yearly in the manner he had proposed. Lord ELLENBOBOUGarbielperely to comment on the curiosity of thai military glory which had been described by.rhe NobleLord.(Betley), as givii;g us. such an ascendancy in the Council, of Natiom, and produced sucka glorious arid secure peace as must indemnify the country for all her burthens.. But the latter part of -hicapecch seemed to abandon the idea of pre,trvinig peace; 'so that there was this cu rious introduktion .145 the sentiments of the Noble Lord, that whereas in the begianing of his speech - he* told their Lord?hips that peace would lair., yet, an answer to t question'from a Noble Lord, it was chine that peace might not last. Never had he . ( Lord; B ) : , •lenborough) met with so p a l pa bl e - a cuetra. dittictp..l4 was rarely that -a speech beginning with assurances -of peace concluded with admissions of war. -. • , The Earl of LIVERPOOL thought the only tru e question now . befo r e t h e i r L or d s hi ps was, what, u n der, different aspects, was likely to give this countcy,4er 'due ascendancey with neighbouring States'? • While there remained - the fair poinibility of out reinaincng at peace, it appeared 'to lie - our litiest Polies tolscre-, luttant to engage in war.; but if, unhappily, welecre compelled to appeal to arms, then, indeed, thiscouts. try should always shew herself strong and deOttininiist in. the field. Such, .it apptafea . tO him,. WO in all cases the real and wise,policy of this country. With 'regard to the provisions of the Bill before their Lord.; ships, the fair inquiry was, were the terms such as Government ougl.t to have adoptedintAation to the Bank' — and here it ou g h t to:be remarked,: that- the terms, were precisely the same as had beeripifetedon . • a former year. The arrangement•went upon 4 1 41 2 X r. kit price antecedent; the calculation was origiu4lly for a term of eighty-eight years; and it Would ,be • .. • found that the avera g e, as calculated by the four per Cents. was a pretty fair average. Upon the whole; * therefore, he considered the arrangement in all its bearings to be perfectly equitable. Tbeiquestion, aft reality, was, was it wise to have concluded suchu bargain at all? Recourse might undoubteiLy have been had to the issue of Exchequer Bills, and there were other alternatives in the power of (iuver nn.ent; but be was prepared to mention that an equilable as- rangement had, considerin g a ll ciicumstanees e bee n fairly made, and such an arrangement as, lie trute 4 , would meet with th e sanct i on o f their L.e/Mips. The Marcpris of LANSDOWN could net tacitly allow the assumption of the Noble Earl pppcsite; for it was improbable at least, not to say impossible, that a bargain, and on such an affair, could be made beneficial to both patties, as any sort of advaetake or profit that was gained by die Bank, whether as present or prospective, must otherwie have devciveci to the country. f3ut the Noble Lord (Bexley) had quite forgotten or overlooked this circumstance, that the measure did with one hand exactly the very thing 1 it counteracted and undid with the other hand ; arid this, moreover, for the purpose of shifting the bur then of taxationirom ourselves, at an evident loss in both 4tansactions to the country at large. These were his objections to the present Bill, but he objected to us tendency pn other grounds. He objected to tise principle of the measuie as operating, and this u _ of indirect)y, to the depriving of the financial system o f e iti c re o c un Y' country of that simplification . so desirable in all arratteis of finance, and indeed sii.reqnisite to the het and lig li t.comprehensiod .of them ; and pp baiiating, .COLOMBIAN LOAN. !STOIIOE is hereby given, That., the SF.COND 11 lISLF-YEARLY DIVIDEND of this LOAN will be paid to the Bond -holders on the lst day of MAX next, and . ar.y subsequent day (Sundays excepted).
