LONDON, FRIDAY, SEPTE.4IBER 21, 1 8 10. 13ANK OF ENULAND. , • 'Yesterday a General Quarictly Court of Proprie tors was held. _ _ The Governer of the Bank announced the divi dend for the next half year to he five per ; sent. On his putting the question on the Resolution to that effect, Mr. ItANDLT JACKSON .rOIC,' And said, that he thought the ciren'mstances of the present times made it absolutely necessarythatsionte observations shook' be made in that Court in answer to those which had been lately directed against the Bank, and the areal of its notes. It %vetted jo him that nu individual, or no public holy, should 'sit down quietly under an tispersoti i4 character, when they had the means of remov s log pig effect of those aipersione. bego leave, howerer, to califs; attention of The Coale* to -this eireninstence; that the report , of Ittel3ol,l lion Co' tnittee was merely the opinion of the indi. Wti , l formed that Ceminittee, but that it had not been yet adepted by the House of . Cum. mons. The circulation of it was, however, so extensive, and its notoriety so great, that if it contained propAtions not only fallacious, but hick could easily be proved to be fallacious, it was a justice due to the Bank and to the Public to expose this fallacy,' Ind to restore to the Batik the full credit to which it *as justly its felt the greatest respect for every thing which emanated from the ' !Louse of Com mons ; but still it must be remembered that this was hut a Committee; and that it had so happened, that the leading Members of this Committee were Gentlemen in the habits ofeippesitien to the present Government. it appeared to him that this Commit tee io their report had endeavoured to argue down the conclusions which would naturally arise from the evidence before them, and that the opinions which trey pronounced were directly at war w itle their evi. deuce. Ile therefore mitisidexed that the Bank was completely fortified by the very evidence which wall examined before the Cumnittee," and that they should not therefore submit to be atifersed by Mire opinions contrary to the evidefice of the most re. 1 , speceable merchants who had been summoned upon Chid occasion. lie Fertainly did cofteeive the credit of the Bank. to be identified with the best interests of olie..puhlic, and lie was prepared to defend it against all the.attacks which hail lately been directed against it, It was impossible to read ,this report without ,perceiving that it contained ideas disparaging and hostile to the Bank ; but he believed that if it were read with attention, the conclusions would appear to be ill.toundeJ. In the first place, the Commit 'tee appear to have aesnmed throtigleout that Bank paper was depreciated below par. They did not, !tow. over, state, that the apparent depreciation proceeled from temporary causes, and was only produced by the circumstances of the market price of gold hap. potting to be now higher than the mint price. The market price of gold in this country is high 'be , cause it is high upon the Continent; and while it ' continues so high upon the Continent, it is tit be supposed that there will be tome parsers, -nho, iu defence of the law, will run the risk of Illative.; down the gold coin, in order to obtain a higher price for 'it as bullion. The question the 'Committee principally relied upon to prove the depreciation was, Will 1051. in Bank paper purchase gold enough market to make an an hundred guineas ? It certainly would not do so at the present price of gold,, and they therefore infer that Bank paper is 1144m:hied. The evidence, however, of Mr. aerie and other most respectable witnesses, was directly in oppo. alien to this conclusion. Mr. Merle said, that if he hail gold to sell, or gold to buy, at the market, it would make no manner of difference whether the payment was in bank-paper or in guineas. He added, however, that if he was a disloyal man, who wished to obtain a profit which the laws for. .hid, by Melting down guineas, in that ease cer tainly he should prefer guineas to bank.notes, while gold is at its present high market price. Mr. Gold amid was of the same opinion, and it did appear to him most important, that the opinians of merchants of such respectability should be as well known to the public as the opinions of those Gentlemen composing the Committee. 'IC they had, how, ever, put the question in another way, and asked If corn or woollens were wanted to the value of 1051. would it make soy difference whether, the pay. mew was in guineas or bank.notes i" To a question so put, the answer, most certainly be, that it nookd eel.; and this answer would not sieppert their idea of derecietion. In this case, as in the former, it' must be stated that there was no difference be. tween guineas and hank-auto, except- to those persons who set the laws of the couotry at de. fiance, and would venture to run • the risk of melting down guineas in order to receive the present market price for the gold. Ile thought it was by no means stir Prising that a moss ingenious periodical writer (Mr. Cobbett), should have ex. ulted at the Report of the Bullion Committee, and' that he should, in. the moment of his exultation, have declared that. it gave him more jey than if he had keen suddenly saluted as Lord of Hampshire. It was very natural fbr that Ingenious water to feel that joy which ; is commonly felt when any grave authority comes forward to sanctiuu a dar ling project; but he believed that now that Gen. denten had had time to read the evidence in the .Report as well as the opinion of the. Committee, his exultation would be a little abated, and that he might now be its well contented to he saluted as Lord of Hampshire. Another inference whtci the Committee made was, that an excessive is.. sue of bank-notes had increased the prices, of all the actessaries of fik. wis a conclusion w ~~ .~ ry . ~L . ••••in it was necessary to ; for it was Isspossib!e that any greater aspersion could bn thrown on the Bank than that it was they who had increased the price of the necessaries of life, and added to the dis tresses of thrspo4r. When such an imputation was cast, he would ask, what was it that was tti.Ant by excessisie issues? The issues at the present day were wit much - greater than they had formerly beeti beg fore the Bank Restriction Bill. As for the issues of one and two pound not..s, they were abso lutely necessary at that time r ar society and (WTI. ateree could nut har.e gone on. At tlie year 1797, 'he issues of the Wink amounted to eleven mil- l ions ; to which it had been reduced from fourteen millions, which had been issued before that time. The issues at. the preient tnoment were only about twenty millions, which was but abOut seven mil_ '{sues oteselhau thosepratteor •the issues before the sesteietiun look place. How happened tt that the Committee had made no caleulatioi of the pro gressive increase of our commeuCe tithing that pe. riod ? How did it happen that they °mitt -1 to explain the progressive increase of the country banks ? Anil yet, since the ) ear 179 t, the export* of the country had increased, as he understood, near fifty millions ; and the country beeps, which* at the time of the restriction, issued bot about ten millions, now issued about thirty Notwithstanding the citadels bail i ietersed fifty millions, and•the country banks issued thirty inila lions instead of tett s yet the Bank of &Wood had only increased Its issues by &bent see d during that' period ;sand such locr..ase tinder such circumstances would 'slither appear parsimonious than excessive. Ile should next ask s how could the Bank of England be said to have increased the prides or the neeessaries of fife ? It was allowed that their notes only circulated in the metro. pulls and its vicinity; how then could they' have seriously affected the prides of the whole kingdom ? The Committee indeed render justicd in . their Report to the integrity, discretion t and disinterestedness by which the Directote were governed •in their issues of • notes. This was • a tribute that was justly duo to them ; and it was well known, that Insteed of keeping peace to the increasing commerce of the country with their is. sties, they bad narrowed their discounts consider. ably. They had net only refused to discount all Bills but those upon real solid mercantile trainee. : tikitts, - but they had confined their discounts crwl. derably with respect to Bills of the most unquos. tionable sort. Itadhis respect they had acted with excessive caution ; and even the Committee them.. selves seemed to be of opinion, that they were rather parsirtionious in their-issso.... Such beau, • the case, was it right to talk of the excessive issue of Bank slows ? ile thought there was ground to charget the Committee with the sin of omission, for not having stated in their report those circumstances which he had ineationed s and which appeared to him to be absolutely necessary in ' urder to form a correct judgitent on thesubject. In reading the Re ' port, it was nut apparent whether the Bank had is. sued those- twenty millions upon the securit) of t funds that were available, or whether it was mere. ly on their own credit : they had omittel to state s that although the Batik 'had issued their nules to the public to the amount of 20 millions, the public: owed the Bank nu less than 18 *. Mins. If ever then it should become the intent,' of the publiC ,that the Batik: should pay all its notes, they hid nothing more to do than reps) to the Bank those 18 millions, and the remaining 2 m could be raised by the Cumpaily of the Batik in half an' hour. lie believed that there was not • public institution upon earth that hail conduct ill its affairs with more discretion, or with *realer regard to the public welfare. When it was tali• ct. ed to the Bank, that it bad increased its I refit, 'by its extra issues since the restriction, it should be recullecteil, that the public participated in this in. • crease of profits to the amount of 210,0001. annually. At the different times that the charter had been re- flowed, the Bank had lent three millions to the Go. vernmetit upon a forme,' occasion, at an interest of 3 per cent. instead of 5 ; in the last instance, free of all interest fur live years. Bunks this partici. patios of the public in the profits of the Bank, the Conipany bail• reduced their charges fur the ma nagement of the.public debt 270,000!. annually ; and the Government had taken to themselves the managernent of unclaimed dividends. Tue report of the Committee recommended, that, at the end of two years, the Bank should be obliged to par in speck. lle thought the Bank should look this threatened mischief' fairly its the face; and ho was Convinced that it would be found, that such I wee. sure would be infieitely more detrimental to the pub. lie than to ilte,.Bank. He was happy again to says that hoagreed with the report in one respect, and . that was in the,praises it bestows* upoa the c•intlect of the Directors ; which praise was .f more value as coming from the mouths of men who must be considered generally hostile to the Batik. 'rhe re. column d sita un of the Committee, Iro.orer, in plaits English, amounted to this—that whittled!' might 6e the price of bullion in the mean tittie s .Che Bass shoutd'be compelled, at any toss, to buy up, wife. in 2 years,' as much as would pay off their small notes. If 'Parliament were to adopt the resolution so - recommended to theto, it would be vet). easy to fore. see s ,'tom the rapidity with •,whielt gold now goes away through iiivisible channels, how mutts ayes speedily it wool I then disappe sr. t very hotly who had then any gold might hull it up to the last, ors the certainty that the Batik would be obligt d to perchafe it upon any terms. But why should the Bank be at such a loss ? Was it they who exhaust. ed (hi cowry of its bullion I Nu.
