Mr. Huacrisrin brought up the report of the Com mittee for General Purposes on the Orphan's Dies, and Metage on Coals. Sir William Curtis was apse painted Collector and Treasurer to tyre Orphau So• eiety, by the Court of Aldermen in the year 1810, and gave a bond for the due mention of the office ; and in the year 1820, the Court of Aldermen took a new bond front him for the flischarre of the same du ties, 'rider circumstances that called for inquiry. He desired that the Report made by the Constuittce for General Purposes on the subject, shonlii be read. Sir WILLIAM. Crime said, he attended the Court Ceillaell Council yesterday, bemuse he had the greatest respect and reverence for the Court ; bat the Report in question was made on a subject of which this Court bed um cognizance. He . reared the Aire frets tirs Cleft of Aiderostro, lb' whom only he was hatossailatio for kit eotuluet to it.. He bad act...muted to their satisfaction, and he was now to be called onl to render an account to the Court of Common Connell, who had not, in point of fart, any account of the re criptc diebursements of the Orphan Fund in their books.—Sit Witham Curtis then left the Court. The report was then read. It stated that Sir Win. Curtis had been appointed Collector and Treasurer to the Fund by the Court of Aldermen in Ole year 1810, at a salary of 2501. a year,and that he had given a bond for the due execution of the duties of the Office, and the payment of all mollies received, to the Chamber lain, before the last day of every month. That he had employed Mr. Drummond as his Deputy, to col lect the duties, which he had reralarly reeeked from the said Deputy every week, but that he had not paid the same into the hands of the Chateloirltin every month, hut bad an average of upwards of nine years, to 175,51 0 0/. That in tl►e month of slay last year, the Court of Aldermen took a new bend bum Sir Wm. Curtis, for the performance of duties of Collector and Treasurer to the Orphan Fund, by the conditions of which bond they required bits to pay over the money received only once in two toontlis. The report pro ceeded to censure Sir Williams, Curtis's co n duct in terms of great severity, and to recuususend that his deputy be directed to make his fn:ure payments to the Chamberlain. and that Sir William Curtis should be sues' for •itterest on the large balances be constantly had in his hand. Mr. Ilcaconne made come observations on Sir Win. Curtis's departure from the conditions of the bond he had given for the due execution of the Office to which he bail bee. appointed, and moved that the Report of the Committee be agreed to. Mr. Ci.anue said he rose to opposo the motion. So much had been said on Sir Win. Curtis's conduct office of Collector to the Orphan Food. that be was, glad the Report bail been read as he thou4lit it might be inferred from it, that Sir Win. Curtis had been hardly dealt with. The Committee for General Pnr poses was certainly highly respectable ; but he thought it hall cast an unnecessary ceustire on the Court of Aldermen, for allowing. Sir WiMins Curtis to depart front the terms of his bond. In point of fact, when Sir William Curtis entered into the hood. it was neither meant, nor expected, that hewer strictly to adhere to it.—(llear, hear.)—When Si r William Cur tis accepted the office, he knew it was the custom to keep two mouths money its band, Pad he conformvd to it.—(clear, hear.) The Report says, that Sir Wil liam Curtis's retention of th.• ttttt nev in his hands was all unwarrantab:e and gross violation of the conditi...n of Isis bond, aad recommends taking legal pi•oceeditigs to recover the interest. lint such a proceeding would be both injudicious and wsjust—unjust, because it was against the understood meaning of the hood, and injudicious because it would be impracticable to re cover. For if reference be hail to custom since the year 1752. it would be found that balances were retained by the Collector for three months, although Sir 1111 Csirtis's immediate predecessor had retained them only two months. It was not un natural that the Court of Aldermen shoals' appoint one of their own body to the office, and who could be more eligible in point of security that Sir William Curtis r Wilde, he was appointed by the Court of Alderm n, and to them only was be at-•ountable; and the Committee should hare confined themselves to a recommendation of a change of system, Mill not have passed a censure on Sir Wm. Curtis'e character. The Comosit tee t.ught to hare confined their Report to a recommentlatiou of a change of system, and not have go n e int,. a question of character; as, if such a pro creding was to be supported, no officer of the Corpo ration could be safe. He pledged himseil to the Court that be bad not had any communication on this subject with Sir Wm. Curtis, hut was only actuated by a sense of justice towards him. Mr. Sheriff Wamsatax, Mr. FA YELL, and Mr. Oh: Ham defended the Report upon the precise grounds 'feted therein. Mr. T. N. WILLIAMS Ligloly disapproved of the con►luct of the Court of Aldermen, but thought ti.:! lauttaage of the Report too severe and inteasperate. Mr. Lucy , `, All man ATKINS, Mr. T. Bostasoz, Sir HUNTER, and Mr. S. Dixos, defended th. con duct of the Court of Aldermen as strictly consistent and roper. he latter Gentleman said, that if the Commit:re had confined themselves tb that which had been referred to them for their consideration, namely, to find out the best method of collecting these funds, he should, perhaps, have had little to offer against the Itrp••rt. He asked, what would the Citizens benefit by the money being immediately paid into the bands of the Ch.►►uberiain, if ►Then so pal I it was not iannedi etely applied ins:ead of the appiicatiou of the funds being made every three wand's ? The figet Was, that the /ion. Baronet had committed a fauh for which I►e n•oul.l never he forgiven. He had some blow or other obtained a seat in Paliament. tk (Mr. Dimon) load asked the Hon. Baronet the other ofa:., whether be could not get rid ►of the Report by vgral iss4 Iris seat in Parliament, to which observation he replied ito bisown abort way, '• I'll bra!—oil if I d.►."

Another amendment was snored by Mr. Dixo,t, that the report slsonld be referred bas i n to the Committee This was else negatived.

Mr. SCOTT presented a Petition from Bexhill, and another fr.mii Hastings, in Sussex, cot Waining of Agricultural thstress.—Ordered to lie on /he Wile. Sir E. I►NATCIIBULL presented several Petitions from Kent on the same snhject. The Ifonotiridile Ba ronet stated at. some length the great distress to which the agricultural interests were subjected, aril impressed upon the House the necessity of paying im mediate attention to the state of the country. Ale. CUKIVEN said, the distress was of a general nature; there was no class of society exempt from it.l Whilst he lamented the cause of them, he rejoiced to, see 4444 natty petitions presented from all parts of the country, bevause he hoped that they would force on Ministers the considerition 4.f the subject. Looking at the miserable state of the people, he u as. lic COD fess..(l, astonished to find persons of intimation and ability, talking of the prosperous state of the coati try—:u him the matter seemed altogether itieunspre. lie was convinced that the opinions of such inn were founded on a fallacy. The Petitions on the Tali:es shored the wretched state of the Connty of liens; if the agrieult oral interest was so depressed in that county, what must be the state of the people in every other part of England? After a few words from Sir C. KNATCHUCLia. Mr. ELLICE (('oventr)) 'al.', that the Worm would recollect that in the year 1 le, there was an in cri.ise in the Excise beyond the ten otl.er rears. '1 he remedy applied to relieve the distrers that had the two years before been pressing upon th.. conotry were, to use the words of the Lhauce:lor of the Exchequer him self, by putting a guinea in the i;oc!.et of every man in the country.—(.l laugh.)--The lion. Gent. ful filled his pledge by inundating the country wi;11 paper money—(bear)—the effects of which were ultimately to promote the very distress under w:uelt the country laboure:l. Ile feared that lie would draw down upon himself the attacks of those who served on the tlullion Committee ; but it was his cutivi..tion, and therefore lie would openly state it, that that Committee had been guilty of one great error—that error was in calculat ine the price of gild of that day with its ancient valor. In 1816 the consequences of an enormous ex penditure were the bringing into this country a great qe..titity of the precious metal. In the preceding year, the Government owed to the With the sum of 30 millions—that sum was reduced to 18 milliont whilst the state of the public balances ultimately reduced it to six millions, a sum much lower than the debt of the present one due front the Government to the Bank. ri lev is:4netl nine or ten millions in coi::, which check. ei the e.:'ect of the issue of paper with respect to fir. reign Exchanges, as well as :he price of gold in this PRIOR country. By•this operation the market wu in a he titioos state, and the fictitious state of the market led the Committee into the error of which he complained. The ealenl ition that the difference in the price of gold would not be greeter than from 4/. 4r. to V. 17s. 141 was founded en as erroneous view, the effects of which the country had much cause to lament. With respect to the state of the Agriculturists, he hat heard the Noble Lord (Castlereagh) declare, that La would not object to a Committee to inquire into their situation, provided the Committee did not inquire inset three things—the State of Taxation, the Corn Lens, and the (7erreney. Now, he would object to a Com mittee of that House going up stairs to consume public time, When they could not hold out any hope what. ever to the country. It trubetier for the none not to deessfee itself ; the danger fru excessive. Bin country roved ea the ?erg* • s 4 oirroof Most** and Par:lA:neat ought manfully to look into its situation before it was too lase.—(Near, hear.) — At the time the Report of the Committee had beets brought down to that House, he was of opinion teat it wonld have been impossible tor the conatry to return to its ancient standard ; if that were his opinion then, how mach more forcibly, with the experience of the last two years before him, must it be his opinion now ? Ile was convinced. that the measure which the Com mittee recommended, produced greet and uirivereal distress. It took away one-third or one-half of the capital of ev..ry man, merchant, or ship-owner, en:ra t :- ell in trade. Its effects upon the farmer were not less revere. In lrilti, in consequence of the great Issue of paper, prices immediately rose, and the farmers saw good times again ; depression succeeded, but vain ho;ies of Inure prosperity remained. Those hopes is d men directly to their ruin—those treacherous hopes of brighter days were created by the Paper Curreary, and greatly tended to aggravate the evils of the svis tem—not merely with respect to farmers and trade,. men, hut country lientlenten. Anxious as lie was, to give every relief to the agricnlturist, he yet would nut lend himself to the delusion of the Committee, which would he restrained from examining alnio“ the only questions 'worthy their attention. Mr. P. tiItIiNFELL regretted that his Hononrable Frieud did not reserve himself fur a fitter occasion. lle was of opinion, that every thing which happened since 1 bI9, demonstrated the soundnees of the opinion en it Isich their Report had been founded, it was not correct to impute to the measure recommended by the Committc., any part of thedistress which pressed np, a the Country. Before the Report of the Committee had beets brooght down, the ttaak of England had the option to issue the coin of the realism, but the Ranks of Pmgland and lrelan:l were about that time restriesed. and it was not at present in their power to pay sums of a li mited ananaust is specie. . Litalmeisirosi open It seilsoiftMor that the restriction should be remneal. and that the hanks of the country should have the option to pay in gold. Mr. ELLICR eeplaineil. Mr. lIUSKINSIiN expressed his regret, that the Honorable Gentleman should have so suddenly broil.: ht the House into the discussion of at' subject which re quired to be handled ivith much caution. He was never more surprised than on coining into the Hose to find the Unnonrab!e Gentleman speaking on iloe subject of the Curreor v of the Country, at a time when the llousz was geuerally employed our private business ; sorb a course of proceeding he looked upon as ex t: crack rregni r. Mr. BARiNti conceived that his Honorable Frie:,J (Mr. nice) had done a public good by bringing the question before the Hew, and by habitnating t! e House to the consideration of the subject. it wa. 1 , 43 a sultj.ct to he settled Oh what was called* grznldeba . r, it teas a subject that required great consideratiotya it the House should not shrink from the avowal of t . e truth. Ile (Mr. Ila:ing) was not disposed to touch the law which had been lately made upon the snbje..r, at least so far as would is the slightest degree amount to a breach of the public Nth ; yet it was his conor:.:- tion, that the attempt that had been made to bring the restoration of the Currency was at the bottom of the public distress. England was the only plauti this situation except America—s America, were pre cisely the same system of paper currency had been operation, lie sincerely hoped that the distress Atli embarrassment of the present day woulJ operate solemn warning to the country, and to future times, not to depart from the settled established statitlarti tpf value. lie perfectly concurred with his Hon.

Mr. UIiENFELL explained. lie did not mean to throw the slightest blame on his lint,. Friend (Mr. 111ko) fir making the speech which fell from him that evening. Mr. 1). lIII.IIERT concurred in all that had been said with respect to the evil effects of departing fri,:a the established curreacy, and concurred with the Honourable Gentleman (Mr. [taring,) in hoping that they in Ay operate as a warning to posterity.
