The refusal of the Bank Company to pay their moment, and take another leek at the language of Dotes Itsai as' every one• must naturally suppose, (hese Acts of Parliament, these solemn declaration* prod) ire of the consequence of driving all the of the Legislature. In the year 1785, they say,. gold Willi out of circulation ; fur, snider saub dr. that the circulation of ;mall notes, in lieu of cash, cumatances, the moment a guiuea or a half-guinea is of 66 great prejudiee to trade and public credit."; gut Into the hands of a person able to keep it, and In 1777, they declare, upon , the evidence of two not an ldeot, it would remain very quiet in the chest years of ettperieace, that their having lessened the of that person ; and, as the smallest notes then in quantity of small notes had produced " eery sale.' . diculatioe, were notes for five pounds, the dig. tarry effects." And, in 1797, under the Minister cults in making payments would aereasarily be very of Pire, whose debts the public have paid, sulfa.; great. The distress, arising from this cause, was whom they are to pay for a monument ; aye, undoe great, that on the Ist of March, it was resolved by the ministry of this man, the Parliament worn the Roue of Commons to bring in a bill to legalize brought to declare, that, to make small" notes, that - the issuing of scull notes by private persons ; and, to do just the contrary of what the above two acts on the woe day a bill was read a second time f6r were intended to. effect, was " expedient for the enabling the Beek of England to twee uotcs under 66 public service, and fur the tonvenienee of con.

In 1775 sod 17.77 it was enacted, that aeon/woo foe passing these Aces was this ; there small promissory notes, in lieu of cash, were were in °sham* two Acts of Parliament, which 64 a great prejudice to trade and public ems. prohibited the negociating of promissory notes and 64 DIT."

Gentlemen, when yon principles that small per promises were injurious have paid due attention to this, you will hardly to ► tie coo:inanity. the first of these Acts was want any thing more to enable you to answer those, passed in the year 1775, and, as will be seen front who have yet the fully or the frnpudence to attempt the title and preamble, which I beg of you to *defence of the Ministry of Pier, who, as it has read 5 ; :sea paper currency was, at that time, been well observed, in reply to one of his eulogists, declared by law Labe of "great prejudice to trade fussed the country gold, and left it payer. and public credit."

Mien, but also to each of you as individuals, woo will hence learn, , how far you are compelled ti receive payment in Batik notes, and in wbst, way your previous convects have been affected by. this Act. • The Preamble of the Act having repeated what was contained in the Order of Council, and having declared, that to confirm and continue the refusal to pay in Gold and Silver, though such refusal was not warranted by law ; having acknowledged the illegality of the things done, and declared the neces. sity of continuing to do them ; hiving made this beginning, , the Act next proceeds SECTION 1. to indemnify the Bank Directors and all other persons tor having done these illegal things ; that is to say, to protect all such persons against iny'appeal to the laze that any suffering party might be inclined to wake. So thst,whatever loss, or hinderance, or in jury any man might have suffered from the non.pay. runt of- the promissory notes of the Bank Coin _puny, 4uch sufferer was, by this Act, at once de. prived of all legal means of obtaining redress. The stet aut o prosides, in Sscrion 11. that the Bank Avoid be liable to no prosecution for OM *sent of any of their notes, that the' 'might lie *tilling to exchange for other notes; and, that In case the Bank were sued by any one for the non qsaylueet of their notes, they might apply to the r court to stop proceedings in such actions, who might stop them accordingly, and wlthoist Costs to -the Plaintiff in any action brought aping the Bauk fur nen.payment of its notes staled; 'the Court eisould think the action necessary. SEM *llle Per. ail, the Bank to Issue cash in payment of any sum l oader twenty shillings, or where less than twenty , should be a fractional part of a sum to be paid by the Bank. Thii 'was .a very gracious permission ! The same Seddon allows them to is. sue cash fur the service of tbnirmy, the Navy, or 'the Ordnance, in putNuattai of an Order of the . Privy Council. Seems 4V. specifies, that the - Bank, during the rostrietioo or stoppage, shall not advance to the government any cash or" notes ex. ceediug in Amount 600,0001. 'Semen V. Permits -the Bank to repay cash to those persons that may choose to lodge cash in the Bank. But the Section per mits the. Bank to repay in cash only three-fourths of, the amount of what shall be so lodged with them. Sacrioss VI. and VII. Permit the Bank toad. vanes ic25,0001. to the &inters of ',nation an 4 Scotland. SECTION VIII. Treats of payments be. • tweets private individuals, and it provid6, that payments which have been Made, or which shall be, made during the continuance of this Act, its Bank of England notes, shall be deemed payments in cast); If accepted as such. Sic. IX. Contains the great al teration made in theta* between debtor and creditor. We have seen, that, by the Id Section, the Bank notes were made to be quite equal)* cash in the case of all demands, made upon the Bank for pay. meat of its notes, which, therefore, made the notes of the Bank, as far as, related to debts due from the, . &Mk s GR account of its opts!, a LEGAL TENDER, which words mean, such money or currency the 4w regards as good in the payment of debts. Gui ses% for instance, .are a EEG AL TENDER, because, thateader or offering of them iu payment is suffi. edeot to prevent any action or proceeding at law rattling entertained against the person,' who may have Lateral them in payment, in quantity equal to the amount of Ave debt. But,• Bank notes were not made a legal tender t and they are not now a legal idsoder, between private' individuals. If a man owe me money, I can still demand coin in payment; and the only difference is, that I cannot, if my debtor tender me the amount of the debt in Bank ad Englaud notes, cause him to be arrested and .hold to special buil, 'as I might have done, if this Act had not been passed. This part of the Act every waashould read, and, therefore, I have put the 9th Section its a nobs , .
