British quota of the French contri boners, was not carried to account this year as had beet, promised ? The Cnancat.t.oa of the Excitrouta said, that the Hots. Member had unfortunately been mistaken. He, had counted the money in English pounds sterling, whereas sifter winding up the whole account there were two millions of francs due to the Government. He wished he could coo• vert these into pounds sterling for the public see. vice, but unfortunately he could not realise the blunder of the Hem. Member. Mr. Geettrzet. said, that the Right Honour. able tlember had gone brio describing the means which lie had in view of 17 millions borrowed from the Sinking Fund, and seven millions by funding' . Exchequer Bills. Yet there was no syllable. is to, the source from whence the chargn of these tans-. , actions were to he liquidated. He did am ate how the future calculations of profit mode by the Right Hue. Gentleman could come to pass. lie wished for iiiforimition as to the source by Which the charges of the plans submitted were to be de. irered. The CHANCBLLOR of the EXCHIMOrIt thanked the lion, Nlsmber for reminding loin of the most important part of his statement. which he had left on!. The means by which he proposed to effect the loan from the sinking fund, were simply to caller' stock to a correspouding amount. He me wled vin the probable efficiency, which would be dis covrrahle ou the remainder of the fund after the loan of twelve millions should be withdrawn. The principle which he had in view to establish was that of 1813. shell it had been agreed on all hands that uu miler to inert the'expenses of a new war, when ever it should break out, it would bi awes nary that a clear 100 millions of redeemed debt shield remain in the hands of the Commissioners, which were to be cancelled as soon as war should he actually declared. There were at present 140 millions io po.seasiou of • those Commissioners, and be _proposed to cancel the execs beyond 100 siitl .-. hops. He had so calculated, that with die sleduc. lion of the present loans. there would remain in July. 1021, 116 millions, leaving the 100 millions for the exigency before mentioned. the residue, together with the accumulations of new purchases, would be available for •ny loan which might be %Weil for the coming year. 3lr. Gaestireee would confine his observatious !in fly to the consolidated fund. and the remarks which lie had on a former occasion mode to the {louse respecting the deficiency of that kind. It •.s. an Oilintnl and unseemly blot is the financial ar r ingements of the country that there should be eon -I,l,toilly a deficiency in the consolidated fund of seven or eight millions, as had been admitted by thr Right Honourable Gentleman . Why not girt ' nil or it at once by a loan, or otherwise, so as to put the fund straight? Did the House consider what was the effect of this on the character of the timnice of the country ? The dividends could never be paid in time. without the good will nail pleasure of the Bank of England, upon whom the Government bad to &tread for this' put. pore. I:e admitted that the Bank had always sliewn willingness enough on the occasion. But he would ask the House and the public, if it was cre ditable for the capability of the country to pay those charges, that it should depend on the Itecolltlim• dation which could be had from time to time 'from that Corporation? He would ask if this way of proceeding was such as to enable the Right Hon. Centletnao to act with perfect independence. so as to make the best possible bargain for the public in hu traiisactions with the Bank ? He concluded with some genetsl remarks on the operation of the Smiting Fund, in which he impaired to doubt its us4olness, and even the propriety of its existence. Mr..J. SMITH appeared to differ from the opinion of the last speaker as to the properties and useful nese of th, Sinking Fond. One 'of its effects was to create a market for stock which was for 'sale. The purchases of the Commissioners taking place four time', a week, preserved the markets in an equal state, and prevented that depreciation which would otherwise take place in such property, from the uneven amount of the sales to be effected at different times, The operation war well kiiown to many Gentlemen on his side of the House, sod he would be sorry to see the fund done awry. He had witnessed with the deepest and gravest concerti the alteration which was going mem the country. They had found out unfortunately that all the expectatio ns held out by the Right .Honour lde Gentleman were regularly disappointed, and after five years peace. the same evil was Plaguing them, of an expenditure increasing with a diminution of revenue: He was the wore impressed with these !melancholy forebodings, be. cause he observed with great pap) the deciease of credit which the country was ragtag into.

Advert. ing to the plan of the Right Hon. Gentleman, he found, from to compari.ou of the estimates of this year and the lair, that there was a deficiency of about 757,0001. on the income of this year. From this he augured very little advantage as to the sink ing fund the Right lion. Gen!lemon would be able to establish Irons the produce of the year.

When the Resolution was read, proposing a sum of 60,000/. to defray the expense of buildings at the Penitentiary, Milbank, Mr. J. Swill protested against the resolution altogether, and animadverted in very warm language on such extravagance, of expenditure in the present distressed state of the count►y. Mr. HOLFOaD spoke in favour ni the Resolution. Mr. LOCKIIAIT obverresl, that each criminal within the establishment would coat the country nice hundred pounds.

Mr. Hintz said, he was one of those who had voted for the instituf of the establishinent ; but the estimates of Its expense were not then one. half of what they had since amounted to. He had tl ght that if a proper sy►tem of labour were adopted there, the returns would nearly repay the whole charge attending it. Sir J. YORK'S said, that his Hon. Friend (Mr. Milford) had admitted the other slight that the charges of the establishment had already amounted to 500,000/. Mr. Hot.roao replied, that his assertion was that they were not within fifty of 500,000!. Mr. PHILLIPS apprehended that the excessive expense of the l'enisentiary in question would ope rate against the institution of similar establishments on a snore economical plan in other parts of the country.
