tend to produce that conviction, which, In the sante minds, a 'tepid and incorrigible prejudice 'would have prevented front being produced by all the powers of Hums or h.SIYE. - 1321 t, we must now return to the Bank, and tee bozo it happened that the people went to demand money in payment of the *lutes in 1797. That it did happen we all know ; bid, there ar6 not a few of the people forming the present population of the country, who have forgotten, or, who have never kuown, the true history of the Stoppage of Gold and Silver payments at the Dank of England; yet, without a knowledge of this history, and **a thorough knowledge of it too, we cannot possibly pursue our inquiries to a satisfactory result. • . We have seen abundant arguments to prove, that raper-money, that promissory paper of every sort, is the olfpring and representative of Debt ; that, a, National or Public Debt never can fail to bring forth bank-notcs, or paper promisses of some sort or other; that, of c,,torse, as the. Debt increases and its Interest increases, there will be, and must be, an increase. of the paper, in which that interest' is paid; and, in the last Letter,_ we saw, in the '!'able of increase of ibe De at and laterest•frum the beginning of the Astti.jacottin War to tits year 1797, wo here saw, in practice, the cause of the snaking of the FIVE Piton) batik.notes; • But, we have since Neu, that measure was nottialiCient. • We saw that it was to avoid pri.eft in Gold and Silver the sums, or !lees of toms, front. eke to ties pumas, which must have induced the Bank to make ate: put out note, so kw ax Fl IC rouses. If you look again at that Table, gentlemen, you will see h••w the increase 'went ott ; yaw ertll set, that it was greater and greaser awry year.. In the 1793, the addition to the annual interest try, Opeakilig in round numbers) only gbh) thousand pounds ; but, in the year 1797, tiro addition 'was, 31 millions ; that' is to say, •a third partof as muck as the *bele amount of the interest previrets to the Aoti.jaeohin war. Thus did thisvar of PITT agalait the rte. publicans of France crist,lll only Ottc seer.. needy as much, in addition to Paibt, as the citet of the whole of the A merirao War, t'ae ;tiroantexplinili. turn of which bad, till now, been proyerbial. There, were, however, odder causes at work, et the time of which we are now speaking ; causes operating upon the paper system from without; causes which most be here folly noted ; for, besides that a knowledge of them is °somata te our iwquiry, it is demanded by justice towards those who opposed the ruinous measures of PITT, and who foretold their consequences ; and this demand is, in a pecu. liar manner, addressed to ME, who, from being so Situated as to be unable to ennui at, or even suspect, the truth, while many circumstances conspired to sotto me take for truth that which was false, was not only one of the dupes of the system, but who, unintentionally, euntilbuted according to the Owe of my talents, towards the extension of thti circle of duplicity.

They fatt9il not to rinew the EVA' of alarm ) in *lab, in- ry . 'lll E / deed, they were kept in countenance by the enemy, who had openly declared his intention of invading. the country. The subject was mentioned in the King's Speech, upon a part of which a motion was groutided, on the 18th of October, fur the bring ing in of bills for the raking men, with all possible speed, for t he purpose of defending the country against invasion. In virtue of a resolution passed in censeefietice of this motion, three acts were - passed wit h all possible rapidity, the fi rst for pro. riding an augmentation for the militia, to be trained and exercised iii a particular manner; the second for raising a certain dumber of men its the several counties of England and Scotland (there were two Aces), for the service of the Regular Army and the Nary; and the third for raising a provisional force of cavalry to be embodied, in cue of necessity, for the defence of these king. doors ; which acts were finally passed on the 1I th of November, 1798. When this measure was me. are discussion, Mr. Fox,, Mr.. SaraIDAL4I I and others, oppose(' it opon the ground of its not being necessary; and Mr. Fox, who called. it a requisi tion, after the French wanner, observed that, ,if it was necessary to our safety, it was the conduct of .tile Ministers and of the last Parliament who eon. fltliel in theca, which had brosight us tutu that mi. vierable eievetion, 44 a Parliament," he said, 46 which had dose more to destroy every thing that " Is dear to es, than in better days would have en. 44. terct) into the mind of any Englishman to at. 44 tempt, or to conceive ; a Parliament by whom 41 the peoplokad been drained so - much, and from 44 whom they had hed so little benefit; a Parliae ". west theLhaelelleilaishea the dearest rights of the " people So shamelessly and a° wickedly. ; 'a Pie.. 44 Heinen! whim:conduct it was that:heti given rise 44 to this measure." Mr. Fox added, . that he did. out believe that invasion Would :render' any such niensuro iseces.sary ; that the real resources of the country consisted in the people's attachment to the constitetinn, and that, therefore, tee proper mea sure to be adopted would be to 'allow them to piti less the spirit of that constitution. The Minister , feel his partizans contended, however, that there was real cause fur alarm ; and Pere said, that as to the constitution " it still possessed that esteem and adiniestion of the people, which would induce " them to defend it against the designs of domestic foes, and the attempts of their foreign allies ;" aaus, according to his usual practice, proceeding Upon . the assumption, that there was a party in the • country in alliance, as to wishes, at least, with the enemy. While these measures were before Parliament, the venal part of. the .preis was by no means inactive. Itepresentatious the must exaggerated were made use of in speaking of the temisee mid designs of the enemy, always insinuating that the opponents of the Minister were ready to juin the enemy, or, at least, wished him success, ,The French were exhi. • bited as beefs quite prepared ; and, a descent WAS ' held forth as something *boost toe horrible to be thought.of. • This was useful for the purpose of making the Arming Acts ga dime ; bat, the alarm ists did not seem to be aware of its cutting another • way ; and, lout of all do they appear to hive ' imagined, that it would set people to thinking of what efActinva,sion might produce upon Bunk-notes. la the mean while, the uegociations fur peace were broken off by the month of December, which gave rise to new alarm. This was soon, followed by the appearance of a French naval forge, with troops . on beard, off the roast of Ireland ; and, though its cetera biek . to Franey, without attempt. ing a descent, niieet, one would think, have tended to quiet eletreasee , fears, it wee, on the contrary, made the ground work of a still, more general and more vociferous alarm. There was now no bounds to the exeggetatione of ,the venal prints. From the first week in laticiary (17.97) to the third week in fediruary, the people were kept in a state of ir eltoltioultardle to be coeceived. 'Aildresses to them, in all shapes and sizes, were published, calling upon theta to arm. and come forth at once, not waiting for the &low !nacres of the Militia and Cavalry Acts. 44 Already,". were they told, " the oppo. site coast was crowded with hostile arms ; forests 46 of beyonets glistened ia tee sun ; despair sad 14 harrOf Were coining in the-rear." It wits next to impotisible that this should not make people think of what was to become of them ; make them re flect a little as to what they were 40 du in case of itivakiots ; and, it required but very little reflection to convince teem, that money, at all times useful, "would, In.tece.a case, .be mere useful titan ever.— W.hence by a very eatieral and: easy transition; thee; would be led to contemplate the pOssibilits.of real ;Minty hoiog reinter .I;mila. than paper.

STATESMAN. " "{ This change of tone was begun on the 17th of February by those notoriously venal prints, those prints lA/ far famed above all others in 'the annals of venality ; the " 'Taut BRITON" and the " Sec" The thing was begun in 66 An Address to lOU fir BULL," in which the " most thinking people," who were still all in frying confusion to get on•with the levies of additional militia, and parish men for the army and navy, and the provisional cavalry ; the " most thinking people," while all hurry and bustle about this, were told by these shameless writers, who had almost called the people traitors for not niskitig greater haste to arm ; the Imo; le were, by these same writers, now told, that alarm might be pushed too far ; that, if so pushed, it might du us an injury equal to invasion; that every one must see, that the French wished to rain our credit ; that, of course, to spew an eagerness to sell out of the funds was to favour the designs of the enemy; that it was, besides, the greatest nonsense in the world for people to suppose that :their property wag- not safe in the Haul; of Eng land ; that no apprehension need be felt, and that , the people who had money in the funds, might safely. rely upon the wooden walls of Old England.- , - Though, observe, the whole country was actually in movement, down to the very beadles, in order to raise mon for defence by land! " The evidence of facts," was before the pee. pie's eyes. The alarm was not to be allayed by as. sections like these. And, though the venal prints .grew more and more positive in their assurances, that there was now no danger from invasion; though they If on the 21st of February) assured the people, that it was 4 k an error to suppose, that the enemy was ' 44 at our gates," and that "a panic might do infi. mite mischief to publiccredit," people still kept carrying their notes softly to Threadneedle-street ; they kept on selling out of the Stocks : and, a re_ port, on the day last mentioned, of the appearance of a French fleet, with troops on board, off REA. CUY HEAD*', iMitiediately followed . by the famous landing of. TATE Aid his handful of raggamulfins in WALES + appears to have given confidence la bank paper the finishing blow. All, as appears retain the documents, and as we sisal( by.and-by see, was• consternation in Thread needle-street. The dialieution of the gold became greater and greater every day. In vain did the ye. .nal prints cry out against alarm. They had cried " wolf" till the people had believed them. They had called upon Clem to " stand , forward in de " fence of the Constitution," 'till they had con. winced them it was time far every man to think a litt:eabest taking Calt* of himself. In vain did these venal writers now call aloud against alarm ; in vain did they say (24th February) ; that the .Beachy. head report "arosefrom a mistake in thesignals ; that " the resources of the country were undiminished; " that it was degrading to suppose that we had " not a sndficient force to annihilate the enemy ; " that the panic was shameful, unmanly, mean, " aunt dastardly." In vain did they assert (`24th February), that " invasion was mese to be desired " than dreaded ;" in vain did they exclaim : 66 Let " us, for God's sake; not give way to our fears SO is to injure public credit." lit vain did they (25th February) aver, 44 that the (dam taus 66 groundless ; that they were sure no attack was meditated ; and that they were convinced it " never would be." In vain did they agaie claim ; ." fur God's sake lot not the gloomy de " spondency of a few men iu the city give afraid 66 blow to public credit." In vain were all these efforts: Suspicion, to use Palwe's emphatical expressing, was no longer ASLEEP. It was broad awake, and to stay its upe. rations was impossible. To excite fears in the breasts of the people was a task to which the venal prints had been adequate; but to remove those fears, or to impede the progress of their efiCcts upon the mind, was too much for any human power to accomplish. The run upuu the Bank continued to increase, until the (lay last-meaticiued, Saturday, the 25th of rebruary, 1797, a day which will belong remembered, and e hick will be amongst the most memorable in the annals of England, as being the last (hitherto at least) on which the Bank of Eng. Wild was compelled, at the will of the bearer, to pay its promissory notes in gold and silver, agree. ably to the tenor of those•notes ; until the evening of that day the run continued, but, on the next, though it was Sunday, an Otder was issued from the Puivx Coe NCI F., requiring the Directors of the Bank to forbear issuing on, cash in payment, un. til the sense of Parliament could be• taken upon the subject, which memorable instrument was in the following words, t., to which..l must • beg of you, Gentlemen, to, pay particular attention. 41'3110 UTH, ta- , -alt e ttto;Atit Pew he this " Do.s merntog, at half- pun tea, A.
