Copy of the Instructions given to Mr. Jacob, in 1327, with the view to obtaining information in Foreign Countries with respect to the price of Grain : Office of Committee of Privy Council for Trade, Whitehall, August 15, 1827. _ SlR—The Lords of the Committee of Privy Council for Trade being of opinion that inquiries similar to those in which you were engaged in the year 1825, respecting the supply of Corn from Foreign Countries, should also be prosecuted in some parts of Europe which you had not an opportunity at that time to visit, their Lordships desire to avail themselves of your services for that purpose. The countries to which their Lordships have reference are those situated on the German Ocean, from Holland north-east ward, and that portion of Germany bordering on the Bal tic to the westward of the present boundary of his Prus sian Majesty's dominions. You will therefore be pleased to proceed to the Conti nent with as much expedition as you can make conve nient ; and, on your return, you will make a report of your proceedings to this Board, reducing the weights, mea sures, anti moneys of the several accounts from foreign into English legal denominations. In order to put you in possession of their Lordships' wishes as to the objects of inquiry, and the mode of dis charging your duty, it is unnecessary for me to do more than to refer you to the letter which, by their Lordships' directions, I addressed to you on the 25th June, 1825 ; you will consider vcurself as acting under the instructions contained in that letter. I am, Sir, your most obedient humble servant, Wm. Jacob, Esq. (Signed) THOS. LACK.

It is said the Duke of LEINSTER has di rected Carton to be fitted up in a most splendid scale—the Duke of CLARENCE having expressed his intention of pay ing a visit to his Grace during - his stay in Ireland.—Cork Constitution. The Earl of MALMESBURY postponed the second reading of the Middlesex Lunatic Asylum Bill, and of the County Lunatic Asylum Bill, from Thursday'next to Tuesday the 29th inst. Their Lordships were aware that the evidence taken before a Select Committee of the other House had been printed by their Lordships' order. It was printed to day, and would be ready for delivery to-morrow. But there would not be sufficient time between that and Thurs day fur their Lordship to form en adequate opinion of the evidence. Indeed, although lie now postponed the se cond reading of the Bills, it was not at all cer tain, but that on Thursday he would move for a Se lect Committee to inquire into the state of the law as respected Lunatic Asylums, with a view of propos ing whatever measures might be necessary for their better regulation. In the other House of Parliament there had been Select Committees appointed, he believed, in the years 1812, 1815, and 1817, and three Reports on the subject had been presented to the House. Three or four Bills founded on these separate Reports had been sent up to their Lordships without producing the effect which it was now sought to achieve, With the experience of these proceedings before their eyes, he thought that their Lordships ought of themselves to proceed to inves tigate the matter, He gave this notice now, as it was L iossible that instead of moving the /second reading of the Bills on Tuesday, lie would move for the appointment of a Select Committee to enquire into the state of the laws for regulating the licensing of private mad houses, • The Earl of LAUDERDALE, pretested against the course about to be pursued by the Noble Earl. There were very ; many people who thought themselves aggrieved by these Bills, and who, therefore, petitioned to be heard by their counsel and witnesses against them, and it would certainly be most inconvenient, in the Noble Lord's opinion, to hear evidence at the Bar, and afterwards to go into a Select Committee for the purpose of having the same subject investigated. It was strange that thy Noble Earl, without saying one word on the subject previously, should come down only two days before the second reading, and give notice of iris intention to move fat a Select Committee; and the Earl oS Malrriesbury reminded the Noble Lord that the se cond reading was fixed for next Tuesday week. He did not think the parties opposed to the Bill could object to the inquiry of a Select Committee, as they might then he at liberty to offer such evidence as would best forward their interest. After a few words from Lord MALMESBURY, the second reading was ordered to he postponed to the 29th. Lord SELSEA, presented a petition from Arundel in favour of Catholic Emancipation. The Duke of MONTROSE presented a petition from Stirling, praying for the repeal of the Corporation and Test Acts, Lord MELVILLE presented a petition from the Royal College of Physicians, Edinburgh, praying that facilities might be afforded for procuring subjects for disse,lion. The Earl of SIIAFTESBURY presented a similar peti tion from tin Teachers and Pupils of the Aldersg,ate, street School of Alf(licine. On the motion of Lord COLCHESTER, a message was sent to the Commons desiring that they might permit Mr. Barclay and Mr. Manning to be examined before their Lordships on the Bill for the Disfranchisement of the Borough of Penryn. The Duke of WELLINGTON moved the second read ing of the Life Annuities Repeal Bill, Lord KING—No person, unless he were the father or the dry-nurse of this Annuity Bill could have any objection to smother it, or feel unwilling to get rid of it. The Bill had already coat the country many millions. It was one of the greatest blunders that ever proceeded from our political Chrysologos, or Chancellor of the Exchequer. A more foolish Bill had never Passed Parliament. It was scarcely credible, but at the same time two Bills were brought into operation to counteract each other. Two antagonist prinei• plea were at once acted on to relieve us. We found our-. selves at the end of a long war with a large amount of permanent debt, and charged with a large number of Life Annuities on account of half-pay. To get rid of these, two nostrums were applied- —one was the Life Annuity Bill, and the other the Dead Weight Bill. By the first we changed a part of our Permanent Debt into Life Annuities; and by the other we changed the Life Annui ties, due to the Army and Navy, into a sort of Perma nent Debt. By the Dead Weight Bill project we spread a large number of Life Annuities over a larger surface, that we might have at present a smaller sum to pay. By time other project, having a larger permanent sum to pay, we converted it into Life Annuities, doing by this Bill the very reverse of what we had done by the other. Two more absurd schemes never were broached, anti we had lost very large sums by both. We had lost mil lions by one and millions by another. If a private gen tleman had done such a thing, what would be said of him ? If he found his estates encumbered with a mortgage, and charged with life annuities, would he grant annuities to relieve himself of the mortgage, and charge himself with mongrge to pay off his annuities ? It would be the most absurd thing possible, and both the measures would be equally injurious.— (Hear, hear.)—lt appeared that our Chancellor of the Exchequer had not done this unawares. In the copy of Mr. Fialayson's letter to J. C. Henries, Esq., he found it stated, that it " is now eight years since I first pointed out to Lord Bexley, then Chancellor of the Exchequer, the loss which he feared had been incurred, and that the Life Annuities were not then of great value." What had been done ? Nothing from that time till the present Bill had been brought in. For eight years this Life Annuity Scheme had been bringing distress and ruin on the country. There was, at the time the Annuity Bill was passed, an Insurance Com pany, whose business was ruined by it. They said that if they sold annuities at the same rates as the Government, they should be ruined ; and if they sold them on worse tr rms, they got no customers. He did not mean to call their Lordships' attention to all Mr. Finlayscn's calcula tions ; but there was one statement of his which was per fectly clear. fle stated that three columns had been inter polated into the account, which made the whole fallacious. The fact was,he supposed that these three columns were inter polated to render theresult confused, and for this advantagethe three columns were added. This interpolation was very expedient, to conceal the actual result of the measure. It was very inexpedient that those annuities were ever granted, and probably they would have been revoked before now, had the accounts been kept correct. There was one part of Sir. Finlayson's calculations which was very piton. He had taken the results of the year when the annuities were granted, and compared them with the price the public gave for Consols; and he found that a less sum, by 10,750/., would have been paid fir Consols than for Life Annuities. The loss on one year then, up to March last, was 10,7501.: we had paid so much more for Annuities than we should had to pay for redeeming debt. This was one of those good things we had received from those political quacks, who followed without intelligence their peculiar line of practice. We had Chancellor of Exchequer atter Chancellor of Exchequer, who had fol lowed no other practice than that of subjecting time public to copious evacuation. We had first Dr. Van Butchel, who recommended strong purgatives; then we called on Dr. Eady, or Easy, who said, " Oh, yes, Van Butchel is right ; we must go on with the evacuating system." First, we had the Forty-eighth of Georg e 111., which was purgare; then we had the Forty - nint of George which was iterum purgare (a laugh), Then came the Fifty-second of George for granting Life Annui ties, which was iterurn re purgare. Afterwards we had the fifty-sixth of George 111., which was clysterium donare._(A laugh.)—and that was followed by the fifty seventh of Geo. 111., which was re elysterium donare.— ( a L ing b) ; and all this was for the poor public.—(llear, hear.) —There were very few of these practitioners, who out of respect to themselves, told the patient all which they did to him, and perhaps it would be cruel to him to let him know how he was dosed and evacuated. He hoped, how ever, that the time was come, when these quacks biting out of office, would never be allowed again to come in ; that the patient would now he better treated, and that the viscera of the public would no more be troubled with their nostrums. Lord BEXLEY said, that of the merits of one of the systems the Noble Baron had called in question—it was not for him to speak. The other was in existence before he was Chancellor of the Exchequer, and his only fault was, that be had not altered the measure of his predecessor, that he had not come down to the House to overturn the law of the land immediately he had heard that it was possibly disadvantageous. It was in Mr. Per. ceval's time that the Bill far granting Life Annuities was passed ; and he cautioned Mr. Perceval against the probability that the calculations on which the scheme was founded were fallacious. Mr. Perceval, however, believed '"the calculations of those men of business he had entrusted; he believed, on the best authority, that many advantages would accrue to the public from adopting it, and tharefore he had submitted the measure to the House. If the Noble Baron had ever read Mr. Finlayson's letter with attention, he would not have made his observations. Mr. Finlays on had been employed since 1819 in verifying his conjectures ; and if lie had taken eight years in ascertaining whether he was correct or not, was the Treasury to be blamed that it had not at once adopted his suggestions? Up to January last he had not made his Report, and his Noble Friend could not act till a Report was made. doubted if that Report was now made. As to the loss of 8,0001., men tinned by Mr. Finlayson, it was only stated that it teemed Itobe a loss. If the Noble Baron had looked into Mr. Finlayson's letter, he would have seen that all his calcula 111,rlaftt rih i e v e ,oe i s s i3n: t. r ea e x s iiptu is t trds circumstance, the ch ll lrtes p ecyonu in m: d:a,seet h itpaena y eranns p o adcdt;ee t e, h ldaav e nti t do:ii a r:fl: I data, upon the supposition of what would be the rate of compound interest during htseaorteshnet stock re: calculation j a o i t f ffacetoalrloe9, nddifferencebe e da e eli between nuearose 'from this circ umstance, that the difference between 4 end 3 per c e nt, made a difference of 19 millions in tlir resalt. It also depended on a calculation of the value as during the whole period. Mr. Percival had founded his measure on calculations which made it apparent to him, that the life annuities would he more advantageous than a perpetual debt, and he acted on the principle, which he (Lord Bexley) approved of, of shortening the debt by substituting annuities for a permanent debt. As the annui ties fell in, so rule!' debt was exti ngu i s h e d, an d a goo d d ea l of debt had beetYso extinguished. A great deal of informa tion had been collected on this subject in two Committees of the House of Commons, which sat in 1819 and 1827, to inquire into Friendly Societies, and the country had been much benefited by the investigation ; but the result shewe,l that the law of mortality-in this country was net yet un derstood. As to that other plan of his own, to which the Noble Lord had alluded, it did undoubtedly tend to lessen the immediate pressure of the burthen, b'y extend ing it over a longer period. The one was an exchange of a perpetual debt for an increased temporary charge ; the other was calculated, in the meantime, to afford consider able relief. He would not, however, enter more largely into the subject, as he intended shortly, on calling for some accounts, to state the reasons why he had agreed with the opinions of those Statesmen whom in early life he had known, and whose memory he should always venerate. Viscount dODERICI.I rose to say a few words regard ing the course he had pursued as to the granting of Life Annuities. There might be, as the Noble Lord (King) said, quacks in finance, as there were certainly pretenders in other matters as well as in that branch of the public ser vice. Though the Noble Lord thought that House might be raado a Foundling Hospital for wit, he could not follow his example, and favour their Lordships with another course of clinical lectures. All that was incumbent upon him to explain was, how it happened that no step had been taken, while he held the office of Chancellor of the Exchequer, in consequence of the representations of Mr. Finlayson. With respect to the last letter the Noble Lord refers to, he would see by its date that it was addressed to the Treasury, when he (Lord Goderich) had no concern with that department. The date was the 30th April, when he was Secretary of State. He never saw it, nor heard of it, tl!1 the commencement of the present year. Until the attention of Parliament hail been called to the subject in the other House, be had never seen it. Soon after I became Chancellor of the Exchequer (said the Noble Viscount), Mr. Fin layson called on me with a handsomely bound book, con taining some very intricate calculations, which he wished me to investigate. It was my duty to examine it as far as I could, Ho said his book consisted of calculations in which he had been engaged by the Noble Lord (Bexley) who had preceded him in office, and that they were suggested by an idea that tl.e duration of human life, especially that of females, was longer than was generally believed by per sons who had made it their study. If it should so turn out, it would follow, that the annuities granted under Mr. Percival's Act, in 1808, involved a loss to the pub lic, because that calculation was founded on a supposition that the duration of human life was not mere than that as sumed by Dr. Price. This is a subject of great importance, not only as to finance, but as a general question interesting to all classes of persons. The inquiry tends to throw light on a subject, which has engaged the attention of so many philosophers and statesmen. When 1 am told that Dr. Price and the Northampton Tables are so utterly erroneous, I cannot forget, that though people differ more or less as to their preciseness, they are the foundation of all the annuities granted by the greater part of the officers of Insurance Societies in this country. It is true that the investigations of Mr. Malthus, and some others, into the ratio by which life increases, had thrown doubt on them ; yet nothing had then appered to satisfy any man of common sense that the matter was so clearly estabished that it was to be assumed as a new basis for the future calculation of the value of life annuities. Mr. Fin layson should have extensive schemes before him. He wanted not merely to alter the Annuity Act, but he lad a great variety of plans respecting deferred annuities, and indeed every possible combination of that kind which could be devised. I directed him to proceed, as 1 thought some useful information would result from theinvestigation which was going on at this public expense. I saw him on va rious occasions, and pressed him as to the progress of the inquiry. As to my coining down with a particular pro position, founded on the communications I had had with Mr. Finlayson, nothing could be more absurd. It is at any rate no part of my medical practice, in whatever quackery I may indulge, to do things piece-meal. I am desirous to have the matter finally settled. I understand that Mr. Finlayson is himself very doubtful whether he can clearly establish his case at this moment ; and if he cannot, what will heroine of the Noble Lord's argument ? Lord KING explained, The Earl of LAUDERDALE said the design of the Dead Weight was to save the present generation the ex pence of a part of the burthen they ought to have borne. The Noble Lord, at the saute time, defended the principle of the Life Annuities, the object of which w as to burden the present generation for the benefit of posterity. If these were not contradictory propositions, he knew not what contradiction was.--(Hear, hear.) He agreed with the Noble Viscount (Goderich), that Parlia ment should be cautious in touching Mr. Finlaynon'a calculations. The grand' discovery made by a part of the Finance Committee, in the other House, in duced him to receive future information from that quarter with less readiness of conviction than he should have done, if they had been more cautious in this instance. He would not be sorpriSed if it turned out that the duration of human life bad increased. The tables might turn out not to have been accurately calculated, but rather in favour of the offices that granted the annuities. It might be in tended, in a certain degree, to insure a pro.fit to the offices, and some of them had gained so much that there was great probability the tahlea had been originally framed more favourehly to the offices than they should have been. The Bill was then read a second time, and ordered to be committed on Thursday. The Marquis of SALISBURY moved foe Bettiros the Foreign Wool imported during the lag seven years, distinguishing the quantity easib year. The Earl of WARWICK presented a petition from the Justices of peace of the county of Warwick, in General Quarter Sessions assembled, respecting the great numbers of juvenile offenders.

One of the witnesses admitted that he had seen a cat sold for 401. during the Election; a canary 'bird was sold at an equally high price. In short, animals of all sorts sold high at that period.—(A laugh.)—The same witne s s, when asked by the Marquis of Salisbury, whether he 11,ai ever been employed elsewhere on electioneering specula tions, replied, that be hid been engaged in a similar way at St. Alban's more than once, and had received from the voters there answers similat: to those given him at Penryn. laugh, )__The voters at St. Alban's found it very difficult to " make up their minds" in giving their votes. --(A laugh.) At ten o'clock the witness was ordered to withdraw. A short conversation then ensued as to the future course of proceeding, in which the Earl of LaunntnaLe, the Lord CHANCELLOR, Earl GREY, the Earl of CAR NAB, volv, and the Earl of Faystouria took part. It was settled that the further consideration of the measure should be re sumed on Friday, if the Motion relative to Ireland which stood for that day, Would allow; and that it should then be Settled if their Lordships would again sit on Saturday. Their Lordships then Adjourned at Half-past Ten o'clock. till Thursday neat. HOUSE OF COMMONS, Aram 2,2. This day being fixed for the ballot for the Ludlow Elec tion Committee, the gallery was not opened to the pablic until five o'clock. Oxford-street, presentedinstthellfimboeforea Friendly tiienouse i Society i n re gulation of Friendly Societiee, Lord ENNISMORE presented a petition from certain Members of the Hibernian Joint Stock Company in favour of the Bill for the dissolution of the Company. The Noble Lord moved- the Order of the Day for the second reading of the Bill, for the dissolutio n of the Hibet - nian Joint Stock Company. Sir GEORGE HILL seconded the motion after a few observations. Mr. GRA.TTAN opposed the Bill. He said the Com pany was supported by some of the principal merchants in Dublin, who thought that the Company was of great importance to Ireland. It was a mere jobbing squabble between two Companies in Ireland, and he thought the British House of Commons should not sanction such a proceeding. The capital of the Company was entire, the business of the Company was confined to the dis counting of bills, and no danger could arise •to any part of the community. If the petitioners were discontented, they had nothing to do but to trans fer their shares, and there would he an end to all re sponsibility. All the power the Legislature bad giver the Company was the power of suing and being sued. The Company was founded ou a simple deed of Parliament; and the House had no right to interfere. He therefore intreated the House to join him in opposing the second of the Bill. Mr. SPRING RICE said, that as there was a great deal of business before the House to-night, and as the ques tion under discussion was one of considerable importance, he thought it advisable to have the discussion Tostponed to a future day. After some observations by Sir G. Flzt.r., Mr. V. Frrt GERALD, and Mr. GRATTAN, the further debate waszpost poned to Thursday next. LUDLOW ELECTION PETITION.

ADMIRALTY COURT (IRELAND). Mr. GEO. LAMB, seeing the Right Hon. Gentleman (Sir J. Newport), who had a motion upon the subject of this Court, in his place, took the opportunity of stating one or two circumstances, which he thought would have the ef fect of inducing him to abstain from bringing forward his motion, or postpone it at least for the present. In the first place, the Judge of the Court was on his way to this coup,- try to place his situation at the disposal of his Majesty ; and in the next place, the very moment the Right Hon. Gent. had stated to him the nature of the complaint against the proceeding of the Court, he had directed an inquiry before the Commissioners, As any debate in that House upon the subject of Courts of Justice was at all times inexpedient and to be avoided, he hoped the Right Hon. Gent. would see the propriety of waiting the result of the inquiry. Sir J. NEWPORT consented to postpone the metier, until that day fortnight. Mr. LAMB had nt objection to any course of inquiry which the Right lion. Gentleman might think proper to suggest upon this subject. FRIENDLY SOCIETIES. Mr. BROUGHAM presented a petition from the Chairman and Secretary of the Delegates from the Friendly Society of Manchester, against the Bill before the House. The petitioners to the House on this subject amounted altogether to above one million, and he coincided with them most fully in their objections to the Bill.

LITTLETON presented a petition from the Millers of Staff trdshire against the importation of flour. Colonel SIBTHORPE presented several petitions from Lincoln and other places, against the Corn Resolution , , praying for greater protection to the Landed Interests.
