In the Ora piece, deseendieg throve; the photo, of Ow' Rim's Mews, 1 was surprised by eat of the strolieets preseeting serer to se.

I gave him (not a march. log guinea) bet a ghillie., which I suppose weeld march as soon as he would be relieved. 1 then Wirral St. James's Park, not expectiog to be known by soy body I should meet there. I walked nearly half down one of the malls, when sieving a seat with mew earnestness, a young min jumped op, st)ieg. • Sir, I as. you are looking out for • wet, you shall base mine: I'll take the Chiltern Hundreds," sad off he went. This did mere than somas, me I come fess, till I recollected the young rogue's lather and'l tad had some dealings together for the Borough of oe--, in •thck the &bolster and the Chiltern Ilea. sheds were parties concerned in the bargain.

On entering the wilk on the south style of tilts bridge, I met my ere* alpha, having just bees relieved by the round, and who was going to the neweit.ltarracks near the spot. I called to kite is tell me what walk that was, *has ha veplied, ibe Bird-cage walk." Au, said I, whet, deng it take its some from the Bird cage-bridge? " No, your H o nou r ," r eplied hastily, " and year Honour must not be seen here, for it it frequented *ale by soldiers and s—s." Oh, oh! said 1, thee Wit a march, and off 1 1 vireo at • "doeblequick step," till I had passed the Pa. leer, and got bad up the bill towards Hyde Park ; When stopping to tete breath, I asked what that walk VIII called? A pastenger .aid, " Constitution- hill." \Veil. thought 1, that is not a mis.uoeser,l for the smelling it so fast, has tried my constitetion. By this time I recollected I was near the dwelling of an old brother armee, with whom I had often sates aminsinitien•tirend, bet meth oftener bad held in teresting conversations on the euhappy condition of our country. I recollected also that he had just been holding a political entoos•oication with a neighbour of ntiose.t re bead of the great family of the R vas et.t.s. World he may nerve his country half so essenritliy es his homes arrester ! I lost rue time then in finding ▪ man so melt knownornd so enivertally respected, as Iblsjor Cantwateue; fle e ts at home, and with him I had a meat satisfactory cote no the politica of the day., If I had not been, as the French celled ir, 6. rhardeur der circonstencer," I should ea have rye whieed sn• seer comparing notes with this most ea celleet end consistent REFORII ER. 1 therefote, got up to go, highly pleased with seeing him so well and look so young, hot shave all hearing him say every thing was in a hopeful trade to effect that full Reform, without which, as a distingeished country. we watt be atedone.

I walked else to Ike femme, spot, the Ring, where heedreds, nay tbeesands of inferior rate deals have been fought from time immemorial, 'till Chalk Term, Wimbkdon Cornasers, Shepherd's Bark and Primrose Hill, have, through the oatractableeme of Hyde Park Rangers, been substituted is its room. My nest Ovation was paid to the greet Luke or stream on which the nary, in royal miniature, was LOX DO N : MONDAY. MAY 10, 18ig. Though we are persuaded that many of est Resil.rt will not take the trouble to reed rho lame Report of the Secret Committee of the House of Commons on Bank affairs, yet we mast print it : we have, therefore taken a part of it today, and, If possible. will give the remainder to.esorrow. In our own opinion, it is of so much 'importance that a greet deal of commercial business bee been at almost a per fect stand till it came forth. No one can say, hew. ever, that it is fraught with any greatly beoelzial weary. The public curiosity is fee t►e present al. laved by it, end we do not espect that that cariosity •ill ever be /Mead so high again by any transaction ewwweg i e d with Bank affair,. Marty may feel their doubt and 'battiest of the solidity of this greet mar. canine incorporated body leavened. Oaf, MOWN just ;be acme - -the lasso we have so often predicted meat take place a r or later. In the list pier., we do not believe that the Bank could pay in specie, If the Government were to discherge the whole debt the Rank claims of it. even that part of it which was to he paid only upon the resumption of its Chatter. If, indeed, the Government, were en. justly, and, we may add, fraellolently to the Pab. He, to pay the debt in the precines metals (could they be hod) the case might be very different. Bet to possess such means the balance of trade must he and remain greatly in our f to pour that tressere linen the couetry's lap ; and that advantage of the balance of trade is obtainable only by under. selling our rivals in foreign markets ; which is still more a hopeless task, while the manufacturer and smears are weighed down wilts rases and the dear. 1.04 , 1 of living. The Bank •ill, on doubt, press the Government OD the claimed het not yet admitted debt, and on this unsettled point dirt we venture to say, and still now affirm, that a coolness, or something worse, will take place tome,* the Governors of the Rusk and the CIIANCILLOS of the EXCIILQUIR. As to those persons oho, in pleading for givisig further de. lays to the Ra■k, urge the smallness of the supply of the pieties reveals fr o m South Ame r iem, It Is all nonsense. What have we to give for them ? The South Americus, ow I. other words theipaniards, who still having the sovereignty over those mines, will not bring the piastres nod dollars and lay them at the doors of the British Treasury. They cannot be ob tained in exchange for Banknotes, but to a very great less, for these would fall as the traffic in them against gold proceeded, and the gold stoo' rise at it was wanted. Nothing then but goods, merchandise, will obtain a *apply of sold by t►e balance of trade in our favour. paying the difference Is the above mete's. No !locos Pucks reins*, thee, of Rank Directors or Secret Reporters, can do away this sim ple fact, that if we have to pay to other nations more than they to es, the comma(caching* will be whist us ; we do mot mesa In every emirs', bet gem*. rally, though in Portugal it is likely to be in our favour; bet, on the whole, the balance of trade will be against us. mod should corn be wanted * It would be sarifelly 'sabot us indeed. The Rank, it seems, es a soother to simple minds and 'wads' reasoner*, is to be comp►llable (se mys the Report), after the Ist of May, 1821, to pay geld bulges (net less than 60 ounces at a time I) for any of its oases, at a certain price, according le the current Mime price. at which, however, the Rank is to have the bessellt of the turn of the scale, as laid down by Mr. RSCAILDO in his inget.scheme, which, tore set how it will, is thought a ►ery tetra. ordinary scheme.

Another proposal, for limiting the period of beginning suits or prosecutions, was adopted. The Chamber then proceeded to a scretioy ori the whole Projet. The reseit was IS3 in favour of it, and 45 against it. It was, therefore, declared to be adopted by the Member.
