AGRICULTURAL MIMICS& Mr. BESETF presentee! a Petition from certain Landholders in Wiltshire, complaining of Agricultural Distress. The HOU. Gentlemsn observed, that the far mer. who had always given his money when he lead ir, to support the exigencies of the state, and had exposed hls person also in the service ofhisrountry, lead a strong claim epon the Legislature f..r relief in his day of dis tress. He maintained it was taxation that must depress the power of the farmer to compete with the foreign corn grower. It hail been the opinion of those most eopersant with the matter, that the landlord ought to have one third of the produce of the land for his rent. Dot in consequence of the increase of taxation, and the poor rates, it was now impossible to obtain rent at so high a rate. He did not think their conditios was so deplorable as some seemed to think; but if the House did not take it into their eerions consideration, the pre sent state of the landed interest, to whose fate was bound that of the azrieultitral classes, and the peasantry of the country, that valuable interest would be com pletely lost and destroyed. Too little attention hs his opinion had been paid to their calls fur relief during the Session, and lee hoped that the House would not separate that night without expressing its decided opinion on t'eis momentous question. He hoped they would not be sent back amougst their Cc restituents with the stigma that they had trilled with their distress, and turned a deaf ear to their complaints. He hoped, therefore, that many, more able than himself, would speak upon the subject, in order that such an impremiou might Pot go forth.—(Hear, bear.)—He moved that the Petition be brought up. Mr. ELLICE seconded the motion of his Honourable ' . ' •efrain sobjett and of Londonderry) lair- putting a stop to all dismission, Ii tlllerHouse . on this subject.— The only purpose Bost itaditeest answered by the appoint ment of tails Committee mas s that of enabling public be siness to go on without the impediment it might have met with (rem the constant recurrence of a theme that occupied all minds. He thought it would have been more honest, In the first instance, to haveannv►red those whoclatneared for relief, that it was unprofitable to give them any more than what coed be derived from the measures of Government, announced at the commence ment of the Session, which was 'text to saying that they eonld do nothing at all for them. He had looked at the Report of this Committee, and from it be learned, and the Howe and the conotry would be surprised to hear it, that all they hail done was to see bow far it was possible to raise the price of core. They bad thought only of giving the firmer a remunerating price, without consi dering how the consumer would be erected by such a course. If it had been fairly stated at the commence ment that this was all the Committee were to direct their attention to, he was sure the House would not have allowed it to have been appointed. If they had done their duty, it might possibly have occurred to them to look a little into the causes of that situation of the agricultural interest which it was their ostensible pur pose to investigate. They might have thought it in cumbent on thine to consider how far over-taxation had been the cause of it; sad also bow far, what he should continue to desicnate, the fatal errois made in the al. teration in the currency in 1819 had coutributeil to the Eisend distress. But el these points had been stu diously kept out of view. The very first paragraphs of the Report set out with stating the low price of corn, arising from overstocked markets. In the view the Committee hatlmicen of this part of the subject, they seemed to have left out of their consideration the damp harvest that had prevailed throughout the whole south of England, which hail obliged all the farmers in-that part of the ,00notry to beat out their corn. Resides• which, they were obliged to do so to pay their rents. — Upon this state of things, however, they had come to the coeclusion, that it was expedient to advance s sum , of one million of money, upon the warehousing of this ansoanil grain. This, it must Le Clear to the House and the country, was not the way to look at the question of the present distress. It wits not what was or oagbr to he, the price of corn, that was to be considered— it was what was, and should he the price of the best wheaten bread to the consumer. Taking the price of the hest wheat at fifty or sixty shillings a quar ter, it would be from 2.1 to 39 per cent. shove any other market in the world. In this state of things, 'bow was the country to maintein its looting ar the first commer cial nation? Toe revolt must he, that we should first he unable to ctimpete with oilier countries, whilst the price of !about eras raised still higher, situ all the productive inalustre of the country WOlll.l be driven away. He fell as any our could do for the distresses of the agricultural elas.es, hit lie tlion!-ht the Committee had completely mistaken the mature of their duty, in setting out of sight the iutrrest of the consumer. Ile would met übserre any further, uy.n what he must denominate, the alonnlities of ilie itettert: The eoutitty would see CUMUAille4` , llll4l sat for nothing, but to enable diovernment to continue through the present Session without reducing the high taxes, or diminishing the burthens of the cduntry. la calling the attrition of the House to what lie considered the main causes of the die tress of the country, the gfeat alteration in the currency moat dot be lost sight of. Keeping this in view, it would he seen that the intention of reducing the limits. Lion price for the importation of foreign corn from to 70s. was no more than restorinz it to what it was in truded to he at by the former Bill.

Friend W bind him. the Member for Portarlingtoe (Mr. Ricardo.) in the views he entertained on that subject. At the time in which the change in the currency he alluded to was made, his opinions were treated with very little cere mony. He had predicted what would follow from the measure of the Right Hon. Member for Oxford (Mr. Peel.) He hid foretold that the pries of provisions would fall, but that th e wages o f lib oar would not fall with them. This being the case; bow were the creditors no the land to be paid when there was then a tax of 40 per cent, on it ? He agreed in the opinion of Ministers so far as that the remission of taxes to the full amount of the Sinking Fund would not give effectual relief. He knew of no relief but the repeal of the Bill of the right Hon. Gentleman opposite (Mr. Peel,)and that be 'never could agree to; or reducing the scale of the taxes to a level with the proportionate increased valise .f 'motley consequent on the measures of 1: 4 15. He wo ' perhaps , stagular ih his opini o n s , b u t h e tad predicted thtt t?•..i depreciation in the value of property would he ones third, which be belie v ed was exactly what it had come to. He agreed with his Honourable Friend behind him (Mr: Ricardo) that the evil hail been aggravated by a forced importation of gold. 'flit 'lon. Member then proceeded to point out the muss to be pursued by the House in making up fur the omissions of the Committee. It was true, that if that Committee had looked into the causes of the present distresses, they weighd have sag geared considerations, even if any Governmest would have entered into them, which the Bowie could not bare examined in the space of one Session. The only cause, therefore, which-veinsined for the House to pursue, in what was left of the Session, was to reduce titedaxes as low as they could without interfering with the public auditor, and to exercise economy in every branch of the medic expenditure. In Ittls, the income of the landed' interest was estimated at thirty-one millions; but now that the landed interest was reduced olio-third, and als lowing about six millions of incombrance. there was not MON than eighteen or nineteen million left, no the._ , whole income of the landed kit , whilst the public - creditor received double that amount. Any one. who leaked at the history of the country, might form a Judi:- moot as to how it would be able to bear the threatening • increase of the price of corn, projected by the Agricul tdral Committee. He assured the Horne, that he felt. most deeply the distressed sitoatiou of the agrirultorists' and any plan of relief that should not go to pladi is burden on the shoulders of any other elms, be world most cordiolly support. Beyond that, however, he cool , / • not go. A 31essage from the Lords here nanounced their Lord ships concnrrence in certain Bills. for which see the Lords' Report; and requested the House would (tumid' then with a copy of the Report - of the•Conemittee which had sat upon certain Petitions, complaining of agricul tural ilistres. Their Lordships' Messengers having retired, The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER moved. that the House comply with their Lordships request; which having been agreed to, the sftssengers were again called in, and informed that a copy of the Report in question would be transmitted to their Lordships. Mr. F. LEWIS then rose to address tile Hoitsa on the subject of the Petitibil under consideration. lie began by observing, that the present Was not the titre for entering into discussion upon the grive matters atit l verted to by the Honourable Member for Coventry (Mr. Ellice:) Bat as that Honourable Gentleman bah so strongly animadverted upon the muscled of the Comat mitten, of which he had the honour to be a meaiber, lie felt himself called upon to say that lie was- cenvinceil• that neither the House nor the Gormley, when• theite• port came before them, would be found to agree in th-. strong censure of that lionoureblefientlitlan.—(Hear) He principally blamed the Committee because they not gone into an investigation of the causes which hail coutributed to produce the present distresses. Amongst diem he enumerated the changes in the currency effect- • ell by the measure of 1519. The consideration cf this had been proposed, but the Committee absolutely refused to adopt it. and for good reasons. They had heard that question discussed over and over again in. that House, • ie. order to estimate the amount of distress consequent upon it ; but no one had ever been found to recommend that that measure should be disturbed, and in this crest the Honourable Gentleman (Mr. Ellice) .coincided. If • therefrre no practical result was to be obtained from. investigating this branch of din subject, filly rip op that which was sore to be productive of se much alter-- • cation, and to involve to great a wasterif time ?—(ll..ar, hear.)
