Sodestructive were the effects of the latter measure, that even now he thought it was not too Ws to reconsider it. Sir R. HARVEY concurred in the statement of his Men. Colleagse, that his constituents Isere living on their capital; Mr. HtJSKISSON deprecated the discussion of a Immure of so stash importance as that which bad beet. to upon a "testier of merely bringing op • po thole!

He bogged to ark whether the Noble Marquess intended th e day be bad tneetioned fee a coasklenWon of the Report, or for the introduction If a imamate founded upon it; sad if the latter, he wished to koow what was the nature of the measure. The Marquess of LONDONDERRY considered It h•roguler Is cell upon any Member to state the nature el a measire of which he had merely given wilco. He lesdh however. so objection to state that he meant to submit tithe House a prietical measure arising out of the Roped ' s, the 22d of April., • Mr. TIERNEY thought it would be improper M send the Report into the country without stating whether it was the basis of the intended measure. The Marques of LONDONDERRY could, only say that it would be a practical measure. • Lord A. HAMILTON said he could perfectly well understand why all diseassion upon the subject we deprecated at present. He begged flowerer to remind thi lion. Chairman, that there had been an Agricultural ethomittee last Session, of which also the Hon. Member was Chairman. The Hon. Member had not informed the House whether the present was in collision with or in confirmation of the former Report; whether the Agriculturists were to hope or despair. It was usual to hear a Report read, or to hear some account of it from the Chairman who presented it. There wee however bet one Member is that Haase who genfrally supported Ministers, aid who yet spee of the agricultural diatribe is language siniliar to that which was used out of t h e House. He alluded-to the Hon. Member for Somerset shire and without wishing to offend any Hon. Member he most say. that the language in doors on the subject was very moderate compared to that without them, Hi could not, bewever, sit down without stating his perfect coariction, that the security of the Fuodholder depended apes the success of the Ag riculturist. Mr. 000 CH said. the fittest occasion for discussing the subject would, in his opinion, be when the report was in bands of Hon. Members. He begged to state, however, that his feeling for the distress of the country was est less strong than that of the Noble Lord. Lord A. HAMILTON disclaimed the intentioa of im puting to the lkeourable Member any intended dere liction of dory. Mr. TIERNEY. adverting to the Hon.

PEA MB addressed the house, but in a voice al most insuilible. We understood him to attribute the agricultural distress to an excessive produce, and to say' . that the tate of interest necessarily depended upon the state of the Funds. The Petition was then read, and ordered to lie on the table and be printed. Mr. S. WORTLEY presented a petition from a Mr. Burgess, stating, that he had rendered services to the public in suggestions respecting the Extra Post, re solved upon last Seision and praying for some remune ration. The Hon. Member said, that if the Petition was not opposed by the Chancellor of the Exchequer he should submit a motion to the house to-morrow on the subject. 'I lie CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER said, he should not oppose the bringing up of the petition, though he did not assent to all the allegations contained in it. He thought, ho% . that the petitioner had some claim on the justice of the House. The petition was then received, reed, and ordered to be printed; and Mr. S.

He concurred with them as to the extent of their distress, and be must say that he had been considerably disappointed in. one source from which he expected relief—he meant the lowering of the rate of interest. He did Sot think the Bank of England was doing its duty, and that it contributed mainly to the distress of the country uy still continuing to demand the extreme rate of int at Five per Cent. They ought to lower the interest, and thereby facilitate the circulation of money through the different channels which produced wealth. The rate was higher in this errantry than any other; at Paris money was but at four per cent. which could not fail to lead to the greatest advantages for the country in which tt was circulated. He bad taken this opportunity of expressing what he felt with regard to the Bank. 7 , ILCHIASTSC GAOL.

Mr. MANNING said he bed never heard so unsea sonable a charge as that made on the Bank at a time when they had shewn so great a disposition to relieve the agricultural interest. The Bank were placed in a strange situation. They were held up by the Honour. able Gentleman, and by some Gentlemen in office, as blameable, because they had not lowered the ra t e o f in terest, while a Learned Serjeant (Mr. Onslow) hacipro posed to repeal the Usury Lam, so that a man might if he chose, take 10 per Cent. They mi g ht j u d ge h ow few the Bank was open to the charge of being extor tioners, when their whole capital of 15 millions was lent to the Government at S per Cent. His individual opi nion was, that the rate at which mercantile bills might he disimuoted had nothing to do with the distress of agriculture, and that if the Bank should discount at 4 per Cent. there would not be the slightest incr e ase of facility to those who might borrow on mortgage.— Money might now be easily obtained at 4 per Cent. on good security of land that was unincumbered. The Bank too had a higher duty to perform than the merely af fording of accommodation to borrowers. They bad to carry into effect the great measure passed in 161.9, but he bail every reason to believe that the circulation was, and bad been full, and that accommodation bad been, denied to no one who had a right to claim it from the Bank. The attempts to force down interest in this country had the effect of driving capital out of this country to the foreign lands. It came to his knowledge, that within a few days 3110,000/. had been sold out of the 5 per Cents. and invested in foreign stock. lie begged.. however, in all lie stated, to be con , idered as stating his own opinion, as he had no authority to snake any communication from the Bank. ..-....... ..--- Mr.Serjeant ONSLOW complained that his intention tiitli regard to the Usury Laws, had not been treated in the ❑ c ost candid manner. Ile conceived that they had heel! attacked.—(Cries of " No, no:") MI , . MANNING explained. lie hail not intended to say one worJ in censure of the propositions he had at former period* lamight tear!) Sir W. WI NNE was understood to express his hope, that the rate of interest would h.! lotvesed. The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER said, in answer to the question of the Hon. Baronet, that it was intended, on the itiLice of the Law advisers of the Crown, to reduce the ad valorem duty on the transfer of toortgages. A clans., was in agitation, and lie should shortly introduce it ; aceiwiliog to which the transfer of a mortgage would be allowed to he indorsed on the back of the dead. simply on payment of the common deed stamp. without the heavy ad valorem duty now payable on the transaction.—(Hear, hear.) Sir I'. LE 111 MU Mir. expressed Li. satisfaction at what had haiku truus.the Rya lion, the Chautelhar of ♦GRICULTCRAL REPORT. Mr. GOOCH brought up the Report of the Agricul- tural Committee, and moved that it be read. The Clerk was proceeding to read it, When The Marquess of LONDONDERRY suggested, that as arrangements bad been made for pan:log the Report as soon as possible, it might be better not to bare it read at present. On the mere hearing of it, there might be • difficulty for the mind to embr ace all the important sub jects touched upon= and if erroneous impressions were received, it might be a work of difficulty afterwards to remove them. He understood the Report could be printed and be ready for delivery foi 4S hours. Mr. ELLICE concurred in the opinion of the Noble Mario-ss. Mr. CA LCRAFT said, he had not the least objection to the course suggested, but lie wished to ask the Hon. Claim:l of the Committee, whether he hall, been in , strutted to move any measure founded on the Report. Mr. GOOCH said he had not. Ile should, however, reserve what he had to offer on the subject for • future occasion, The Marquess of LONDONDERRY said, it was his intention to propose Monday, the tad instant, for con sidering the Report, with a view to some tveasare to be founded upon it. Alter a short conversation respecting the priority of a notice, waich stood also for the Ind, The Marque-a of LOX DI Y.N DERRY said, he was quite there could be but one feeling in the House as to, the' prainount Importance of the subject; and that without reference to any particular or party views, there, COLOXIAL TIADI. On the motion of Mr. P. ROBINSON, the House resolved itself into a Committee on the Colonial Acts. Mr. ROBINSON then rose and said, that in moving for a Committee of the whole House, be did not mean that any 11Iember, by agreeing to his motion, should be pledged to the support of the measures which be meant to propose to them. Although he did not intend any more at present than to move for leave to bring in a Bill, or rather two Bills, to regulate the trade with one foreign Colonies, yet he thought it was his duty to 'ex plain to the Committee the grounds on which he meant , to introduce any alteration in the established system of Colonial intercourse. lie was afraid he should trespass farther than he could wish oo the indulgence of the Committee, but still as the question involved the satire of our commercial intercourse with our foreign Colo- Dies, he was of opinion that Hon. Members should un derstand the laws which at present regalatied that in tercourse, because by the proper naderstauding of the existing laws, they would be the better prepared to enact new ones. The measure which he had in contene/ plation would not go to effect any material change, and he believed he would be able to satisfy the Committee that the alteration which be was about to propose in volved a far less change than Gentlemen were led to ap prehend. By the taws as they at present existed, the regulations of trade as far as they respected our American Colonic* have been in a great measure evaded or totally abandoned, and they never operated at all in respect, to oar extensive dominions in the last Indies. With respect to the whole of our extensive continental possessions in the East Indies, the island of Ceylon, the Cape of Good Hope, Sec. with which so much commerce was carried on by this country, to them the principle of the Navigation Laws never applied. If again they would look to our West India Colonies, and consider how their commerce bad been practically carried on, they would fled that the rigid principle of the Naviga tion Acts was never acted upon. Every one of those Colonies was at that moment at free liberty to trade with other Colonies in other ships as well as in British vessels.—Ube Right Hon. Gentleman then explained the application of the former Acts, particularly the Act of IntKi, and the Act establishing free ports.}—Another branch of commerce with our Colonies related to the trade with the United States. All countries were at li berty to trade with our Colonies, and our Colonies, in return, to trade with them, and the ictions were imposed on the intercourse between the mother country and the Colonies. During the existence of the former and the late wars, vessels of the United States were per mitted to trade with the Colonies. An Act bad been passed which made the Island of Bermuda a eentrepos for the trade between our West India Colonies and the United States.
