LONDON. FRIDAY. MAT 28, 1819. Both Houses of Parliament adjourned yester day evening for the recess—the House of Lords until Monday se'imight, and the House of Com mons until next Wednesday. In the House of Commons Mr. BROGDEN. as Chairmen of the Committee in winch the Report on the affairs of the Bank of Engbind was discussed, brought in a Bill fouuded on the Resolutions which were then adopted. The Bill was read a first time without any observations, but it will no doubt give rise to some debating on the secoud reading, which is fixed fur Wednesday evening. We are happy to perceive from the prices of stocks yesterday, that the panic which seemed to have pervaded in the City for some days has been at length arrested, and we may now look for ward to the perfect restoration of public confidence. The foods yesterday maintained the improvement which they bad experienced on the preceding day, BO that Consuls closed at 671, being two per cent. higher than they were on Tuesday afternoon. This favourable change may be attributed to either of too caries;—to the re-action which usually sue. verde a sudden and violent operation, or to the confidence inspired into the public wind by the reports of the proceedings in the two Houses of Parliatnent. From the character of those proceed ings, we have no hesitation in attributing it exclu sively to them, for we sincerely believe that pre vious to the debates in Parliament, the generality of those persons who spoke and wrote against the phut suggested by tae two Committees, had be stowed no reflection upon the subject, and as many of them. hum their supposed sources of informs tion and their general character for intelligence, were regarded with deference and respect by no small portion of their fellow-citizens, it is not sur prising that their opinions, expressed with such de cided hostility to the proposed arrangement, should cause consternation and alarm among the million. But although there is nothing in the plan to justify the panic which was too generally expe rienced, we do not pretend to assert that it is alto gether tree from objection. We applaud the feel log that induced the Committees to adopt in their plan what appeared to them measures of caution, and nothing could be more desirable than that the change which inn-t be dirt:led iii our monetary sys tem should be 53 gradual, mid consequently as im perceptible in its progress as possible. But we fear this advantage is hot likely to be attained by the postponement of actual cash payments for the lot g space of four years. The Committers, we ape pretend, have dwelt with too exclusive an wen fora to the state of the issues of the Bank of En land, and although iii the progress of their inquiry they endeavoured, and jailed to ascertain the amount of private or ,ouittry bank notes in circulation, they seemed subsequently iu the drawing up of their plan to leave this point altogether out of their consideration. Now, in our view of this question, the i-Auts of the country banks exercise an influ ence on the affairs of the country ilo less important than the issues of the Bank of England, and that Ho regulations which may be adopted by the Bank Directors call have any beneficial effect oil the rates of fintign exchanges or ..he pi tee of bullion, unless some weans are at the WMe tune adopted to bring the issues of the country banks Hulk, no equal control. At present there i< no limitation but their own caprice to the issues of comitly bankers. When the cuctilating medmai of a country is of such a nature, that whatecor portion of it exceeds the ab. solute rienesoities of the people cannot be of service iu tc,reigti Hatichl, it must be rbsoi bed in the inter. nal trail-, and this can be off, et t d mi ty by increas ing the prises of all objects of transfer or commerce. Suds is the cese with a paper currency Riot con- sertible into the precious metals. Were bankers liable to be called on fur gold, they wuuld be cautious not to sissy larger griantit) 01 than their experience siould trH them was ab solutely rrquired fur the internal ecimoiny of the country, for any rXINFO, however email, con staidly rooming on them, would exhaust the richest coffers. Out the restriction of cash pay ment., the notea of the Bank of England a ere in tended to perform, and for some time actually did perform with respect to other hanks, this function of a metallic currency ; hut this restraint has been for souse years removed in consequence of the distrust which has been raised in every part of the country of Bank of England notes, from the great difficulty of distisignishing between those that were gPIIUIIIII and the fabricated imitations of them. 'There are few persons, if any, ten miles beyond London, who do not prefer the local notes of their district to those of the Bank of England, arid con sequently with a Welker of ordinary credit alt hurl- Ution on his issues is effectually removed. This consideration will, we think, explain a dif ficulty which Mr. RICARDO, in his evidence. ac knowledges to beset his principle respecting the value of gold as it is affected by the issues of paper. Ile was asked, if the price of gold was raised by the excessive issues of paper in this coun try, how it happened that in the early part of 1816, when the issues of the Bank amounted to 29,000,000/. gold should be at 3f. 174. 100. an ounce, end yet that in 1417, when the issue. of the Bank were not more than 25,000,0001. gold should br at 414. Mr. RICARDO feels the dif ficulty of reconciling this, and iittrilintee the vari ation to the recent financial operations of foreign governments. The real state of the case we be lieve to be this:—lt will he remembered that in 1916, very considerable distress prevailed in this country, several country bankers failed, and those who withstood the shock reduced their issues almost to nothing. The general currency of the country, therefore, at that period, was principally, if not wholly, supplied by the Bank of England. As the energies of this country could not long stagnate beneath the paralysing effects of a sudden alarm, industry began once more to exercise its energies, and with it confidence again visited the commercial world. The country banks revived, put forth their issues, and were further encouraged to esilerge them by the distrust of the Bank of England notes, which we have already no ticed, and which at that very moment, from the re markable concurrence of t lie increase of forgeries, be gan to be chiefly felt. The Bank of England might have reduced its issues to the smallest amount ne cessary for the trade of London, but as the issues of the country banks would at the same time increase in a more rapid proportion, they would effectually counteract all the exertions of the Directors to regu late the bullion market. From this cause we apprehend that the change from • paper to a me tallic circulation will not be so insensible as it other wise might be, and as we have not the remotest doubt that the price of gold in the market must of necessity be regulated by the amount of paper in circulation in this country, we ;ire of opsoion that the time of payment has been postponed to a period too distant. We have received Paris Papers of Mouthy last, from which we have made extracts. A Flanders Mail has arrived, with Papers from Brussels to the 25th instant.—The Session of the two Chambers of the States-General closed on the 22d. SITTING OF THE SECOND CHAMBER OF THE 92D MAY. After some preliminary business. the President communicated to the Assembly a Decree of the King. by which his Majesty had charged his Excel lency the Minister of the Interior to repair to-day to the Assembly, when the two Chambers would be united, to close the prei•ent Session. lie thanked his Honourable Colleagues for the marks of esteem and confidence which he has received during this long Session, anti the Chamber adjourned till two o'clock. when the two Chambers met, and the Minister of the Interior being introduced in the usual form, closed the Session by the following speech, which he delivered in both languages : " Hiatt and ,Iliphty Lords, " The King, in ordering me to close in his name the Session of the States-General, has at the same lime cons misstated me to testify his satisfaction at the constant and arlithllltle rare which you have 'hewn is the thorough hives. ligation of the various projects of law■ which, hate been laid before you, and of which several were of high import ance. I shall not enumerate them, but it is agreeable to the King to be able to inform you, era' before your Session is closed, that a very interesting law—that on the national militia—has been put tutu full (locution, and that the result answers the hopes which his Majesty entertained. " Hi■ Majesty thinks that equally satisfactory information may soon be given you respecting the other laws which you have 'lac had before you. He will rejoice at it, because his ambition is the prosperity of the Slate, and in his heart the prosperity of the nation is inseparable from his own bappi. new." His Excellency concluded by recommending to the Members worthily to employ the interval till the next Session in mai n taining that spirit of enn. cord which is the basis of the general welfare end happiness. _ • We have repeatedly noticed the determination of Ministers to burden the country with a Pro perty Tax.

Extract from a letter from the Cape of Good Hope, dated Nlarch 20 :—" All the trao•as which could be mustered, amounting to nearly 3,000 men, were embarking for the Corn Districts, which are shout 600 miles distant from Cape Town. The want of cavalry was severely felt." So great is the alarm in the City respecting the Princess Charlotte packet, from Jamaica, not having arrived, alt'iough vessels which sailed several days after her have long since arrived, that policies of in surance have been effected at a premium of 25 gui neas per cent. to a very considerable amount. It is said she has ou hoard between five and 600,000 dollars for British► merchants, 50,000 of which are for one house alone. The 31141ug cleared out on Saturday last at Gree nock, with a valuable cargo for Kingston, Jamaica, and was to have sailed next day, but in the course of the night Om took lire. The particulars are de tailed in the following letter from Greenock : " GREIF:NOCK, MAY 23 —lt is with vexation that I have to inforia you, that this morning, shortly after daylight, the Malay was discovered to lie on fire; great assistance was promptly obtained, and by six o'clock it was extinguished, but I much fear not without very heavy damage to the va. tumble cargo.

That our East India Cotnpany and our merchants have heard every accusation against the adulterators of tea with little examination into what was brought front China direct, or as far as we know, with none, is one must complete proof of want of research in this age, and neglect of what others have said on the most important subject•. The following is a passage from ihe translation of the Abbe Grosier's description of Clllll3, published so long ago as 1787. 8: " We must not confound with real lea every thing tint the Chinese call tam (tea). is sold in the province of Chang-tong (we suppose Camin), as is delicate tea, is pro perly but a kind of moss which grows on the cocks in the iieighboorhoud of the small city ui Manr•ing•hetts, A like kind of tea is distributed in some of the other soother* provinces, which in spot composed of real leaves, although the merchants vend it muter the name tchwye, ten-learet.
