Gentlemen would then find, that the case was very different now (lion what It was in 1808, when it appeared that there eav :ms actual failure in the crops of Scotland and the North of Ireland ; and that the scarcity was still further increased by the ports of lii • Baltic being shut by Bonaparte. It was now very dif ferent. The crops in Scotland had exeeerld e! at was called *LI average crop. and the potatne4, on which the population in the Higlilsnds ao mecli de. trended, were very plentiful. to Irel Ind the ern ; s were superabundunt, end that (*Wintry only paired r market to get rid of the 'surplus. Thus the imports from Ireland might make imp for any deficiency in England. He supposed the Right ' Hon. Gentleman would argue from the high price of grain at this tnoineut ; but was lie not aware that this was in part only nominal, from the depre ciation of paper currency I Hs would oppose Inns also on this principle, that the cons-trade ought never to be meddled or interfered with, us this was an act of inju.tice towards the farmer, whose pro duce wee rendered less valuable than it would otherwise be. He had hearth it meted. that it was nut intended to extend the prohibition to Ire land. Thi., if it was meant its a coucession, Ire could as la r. the Hight Hon. Gentleman. would not lie reek us II benefit lid one; because, al the same lam, r spirit inter, ouri.e with the. c( try wou ld t a e prohibited, and Ireland thereby deprived of a market. The Hots. Gentleman then wrist in to a comp irutive statement or the prices of grain, at the pa sing of the act, and the present time, Ind contended, that the same neces.ity did not now ex ist fur its continuation, that existed for its enact ment; nether would the measure operate as a per. inauent benefit to i.hinters ; it might itolrrol afford a temporsity rebel v. ii.vs waiithi;:, whit h seas WA th e ca,e at p. tient, ::v sugar had risen nearly one-half since the passing of the act, but it could n ever he t& permanent utility. He concluded by moving the above atuendment. Mr. Roan thought going into a Committee of the whole House. the most expedient was for con sidering the question. Had that lion been cur ried, he would not have found at neceuary to go to any great length iota the principle of the measure, which he considered as fully established the last Sess on. The saute cruses existed now. Th.. price of grain wits higher than when the Act was passed ; which was proved by the Returns before the House. The rise of the price of bullion could by no 110.111114 balance this loci-rase of price. to which it Lore no proportion. He could see no occasion for a , Committee to inquire into the scarcity of provisions. The best proof of the abundance of the article, was the price of it. With rupcct to the Hun. Gentle man's assertion of the aLuorlant crops in Scotland, lie would only say, that an Hon. Member from that country, now beside him, complained very much of the great dam ige that had been done to it before it was get in. As to 1411 and, it certnirily wee not his intention to extend the prohibiton to that country; for there were many r 4 aeons which the Hon. dent. had not contemplated. From the su perabundance of the crop the prohibition was un necessary, and would be injurious. Another reason was, that the revenue was not easily collected in that country. The Hon. Gust. had exclaimed against the prohibition of spirit intereourre, as con trary to the Union, and not benatic el to Ireland. To this he would say, that it was absolutely neer,- sary while they were allowed to distil from corn. which the other fp-until was oat, and that the same prohibition already existed, and was found to be nefit and protect °lreland. Sir Jonas NeWPORT thought, that they need go no farther than tise Report of the Committee upon the bad consequences of prohibitions, to see the impoitcy of reacietiiii; to them in the present case. The Committee had expressly Anted, that in their opinion they had a tendency to injure the agricul tural interests of the country, and that nothing but the strong statements of the West India mer chants conld induce them to recommend even • temporery ailoptiom Ile did not think that they were warrante 1 iii contintiimt the prohiletion spins the hare statement of the Right Hon. Gentleman ; it became them particularly to weigh the subj. el well, a. no mats could deny that it was an infringe ment otthe articles of Umun. It had been asked, would the distillers of this country submit to the prohil.iUon, without a suopereion of the inter course in the article of spirits, between the two countries ? He saw no reason why they . should not; be saw no reason why they should ob ject to the performince of the articles of Union.— Illear ! hear !) 11 this measure was to be pt r oister' its, he conaideied it so gross an act of loitt-- tire towards Ireland, that lie should, at a ripire period, propose a suspension of the inte:coorse be tween the two couistries in cotton goods, to conti nue wine the prohibition upon the spirit trade lasted. A prohibition similar to the re..0.1t was laid 0.1 by the former Parliament, hut then it was only for a period of six weeks. But the present Parliament continued it without riveting into any inquiry a. to its necessity. lie wished to support the West India trade, but it was not by such little temperary experbents. If this measure wit. per-e -ver. it in, ha should consides it es a h ome brow to the nericialtitral interests or Ireland. Mr. YOMLIi wished for a Committee, and thought it would appear that there was no neets sity for extending the prohibition to oats. Mr. PERCEVAL thought that when they mini 'lewd the alarm which win geoemlly spread by the appointment of Committees to starve into the state of grain, they would be slow to arlopt the Amendment. It had been rekesented as a breach of the Article. of Union ; it was not a breach in the to - int, nor ilid lie believe in the letter of the act. The lion. Baron-t had threatened them with pro posing a prohth:tiou upon the cotton trade. Did he think that that would be • benefit to Ireland Hear ! hear ! ,/'runs Sir John Newport.) If he did, there teas yet no analogy b. tisceii the two es..Ys to justify *mil a proposiiinr. If the impart ation of spirit. from Ireland we. not pru!libito the grain "timid h e ren t th ere c r nir t the ut,uner, an I returned, /*fier distillation, so that the object *hie% Government had in view would be com pletely defeated.

Mr. FOITLIt raid, that the crop in "eland this yemr was abundant, particularly in the irrtiOe of uotatofts, of which there was a greater plenty than to any former year. He opposed the amendment. Mr. NlsaaTaxc oppomed it elmo. Lord ARCHIBALD HAMILTON wished. that, if the prohibition upon the dimtillaiion of grain wns con. towed here, tt ought to be extruded to limb,: 1. Scotland, he thought, would be • los►►, if it was not, for it was known that she drew much grain from Irelsud.

He reminded Gentlemen what an interminable ques►ion it w:.s in the Corninittee last Year, mid warned them against reviving the discussion upon prohibition, alai respect to Ireland. Mr. GILITTAII said, that, with every respect for the 11'eet India merchants, dill he could net think of siicriticiiig to them the itgticaltorel intereiti of Ireland. 11 ith every respect also for Scotland. he could not think of preventing the exercise of the industry of his own country, for the purpose of sap. plying :Scotland with oa•s.
