On a former occasion, when an account of imports and exports of other commodities as between Gteat Bri tain and Ireland had been produced, as they appear ed on the Custom-house books of each country, it was found that the amount was totally different in 'the books of the one country from *hat it appeared to be in the books of the other, Soule slight differs once there must have been, but the difference was of • nature and magnitude not to be accounted for by those circumstances which might have occasiored iseestrincessiderable variations. I le thought it material, therefore,to ascertain how far the books correilpended In this instance, and what was the view given en both sides. The question was then pat on the first motion. The-Earl of LAUDERDALE.—Iie agreed that this was not, the time for entering into the discussion, for, until the subject could be thoroughly and ef fectually distussed, it was desirable to refrain frog entering upon it at all. It was unquestionably subject of the highest importance, and one calce.. lated to effect the feelings of all classes of the com munity, which rendered it the more necessary to have it considered and discussed with the greatest care and temper. It had been said that the Report of the Corn Committee was defective : but on thole points, with. respect to which full information could be procured, he contended, that the Report was complete. On one branch of the subject, the primes at which fee reigners could sell their corn, he allowed it was de fective, as the Continent had been so shut up, thet full information could not Oh that head be at the time procured. If his Noble and Learned Friend meant to say that the Reports of the Corn Committee did not contain any valuable and important information on the internal state of the agricultural interests, and the taxes, as bearing upon that interest, he had only to say, that he differed most extremely from his Noble Friend. There was no inconsistency in now refraining from moving the revival of the Corn Cern. rnittee, es the prices of foreign corn were how rioto.. rious. He differed from his Noble Friend on an. other point. His Noble Friend had said, that they were now proposing new laws and a change of sys tem : but he (Lauderdale) maintained that they were not QOM laws, but laws which had been long acted upon ; awl* proposed change in the system Wee nothing fliau The adaptation ortlie exiiting laws to the change of circumstances. As to the Executive Government taking op the subject, he could not conceive why it should not take it up.— The Executive had afforded its protection to capital employed in other branches of industry, sad pre. vented an undue competition by foreigners in the home market; and why should the capital employed ___..........; ..••._ iy shoue. •.._ fective. Untier these circumstances, though this was ,in the most important branch of industry, in ail. . not the proper time for arguing the question, he could culture and the growth of corn, be deprived ? He, not help now stating that he still retained on this therefore, concurred with his Noble Friend who subject the opinions which he had formerly enter- spoke first in expressing his hope that the Executive tained and mentioned in that House, and that all Government would take it up; and where such great that had since happened had only served to confirm and important interests were concerned, he did not him the more in these opinions. No one, he trusted think it incumbent on them to reject the assistance would suspect him of adopting and stating opinions of the Executive Government, though they had op. merely on account of their popularity, or because posed many of tlie measures of the present Ministers. they might be agreeable to one set of men, and , Lord GRENVILLE.—His Noble Friend would disagreeable to another; but at the same time no doubt be very willing to accept the assistance of such as his opinion way, he thought himself hound the Executive Government in supporting a measure by every sense of duty to avow and declare which he conceived to be one of the most bene. it, more particularly when it related to a sub. ficial consequence to the country, because there could ject of this vast magnitude and importance.--- be nothing more likely to secure for such measures In his opinion the tendency of the measures which , the desired success.

It was of the greatest consequence gulated by what might be the prevailing opinions to state this now, because he was apprehensive that I among this or that body of men, and God forbid that the discussion of the subject, if it came to be dis. 1 his opinions should ever be so regulated. But his missed, would be brought forward at a time when I Noble Friends very much misunderstood him, if they that discussion would have but very little effect on I thought that he considered it as improper in them to the decision. His Noble Friend had thrown out a I avail themselves of the assistance of the Executive hope that the subject would be taken up by the Ex..; Government.
