The Marquis CArzD presented a Petition from the Land Owners and Occupiers of Laud in the County of Kent, praying the House to take into conaideration.the state of the Corn Laws. The Earl of DARNLEY adverted to the proceed ings of the Meeting in heat, which was sum moned in consequence of a Requisition to the High Sheriff, who decided to hold it at Maid stone on the Market-day. The result Was that all the rabble of Maidstone attended, together with the workmen from the paper manufac tories, and a number of idle discharged ser vants, who raised such a clamour that he (Lord Darnley) could not be heard, nod the Land- Owners and Occupiers of Land adjourned to an _tun in the Town' where, at a very respectable Meeting, certain Resolutions and the present Pe tition were agreed to. His Lordship took the op portunity at adverting to a publication in the nrewvap , ers purporting to be a speech delivered by the Chief Magistree of London, whicli he roust consider as altogeth e r an unfounded statement, it being impassible to believe, that one whose peen- Lar duty it was to preserve the peace, would utter sentiments wholly subversive of it. It was there stated thiit the Lord Mayor of Landau had stated that the import price being SOs. the average price would heat that atnount,• an assertion which was negatived by all experience, and it would be seen that grain had actually fallen in price in the last market-day, notwithstauding the measure relative ro the Corn Laws was under the consideration of the Legislature. It was also alleged to have been stated by the Worthy Magistrate, that if the measure was carried, fixin g ;lie import price at SOs. the Qaartern Loaf would be at Is. 4d. or Is. Cal. The Worthy Magistrate, of all Men,. ought to know what could be done with a silcit of alour, and it was known that the produce of a quarter of Wheat might be made into 101 Quar tern,4oaves, at all events it, would at least 80.— Taking it then at the very losvest,caleidat ion, and the average price of Wheat at 80s. the Quarter!' Loaf ought not to be more than one shilling.-- How it happened that the Quarter') Loaf in Lou don was dearer than in the Country the Lord Mayor and Court of Aldermen would bast explain. His - Lordship concluded by observing, that the proposed measure respecting the Corn Laws was the best calculated to promote the general interest of the country. Earl STANUOPE animadverted on the expres sions applied by the Noble Lord to the persons attending tire Meeting at Maidstone, observing that they of . .course felt keenly upon sueo a sub ject, and must respecting any question that re lated to starving the people. As to the speech attributed to the Lord Mayor of London, the pro per way would have been for the Noble Lord, he.- lot he commenced upon it, to have sent the news paper to that Magistrate, and asked hiai whether be really used these expressions ? Upon this Inca sure he thought the Legislature were beginning at the wronce end ; the proper way would be to see what could be done for the purpose of de caeasing taxation, and t hits to render labour cheap, and enable the farmer to sell cheap. Instead of this ki number of taxes hail been proposed, which world fall w.th increased weight upon the farmer and the lower classes of society. The Earl of LAUtIERDALE deprecated the use of inflammatory language, and particularly the phrase of starving the people. It was not, nor could it be, the intention of tiny man ro propose a measure-that would-have a tendency to starve die people. The object of the measure nosy btfore Parliament was tae general welfare of the people ; and whenever tiat measure came before that House, it should have his firm support, con vinced as he was that it was essential to the well-being of the count ry. The Earl of LIVERPOOL agreed with the Noble Earl (Lauderdale) as to the essential importance of the measure now before Parliament regarding the Corn Laws, and observed that it was too nine(' fur the Noble' Earl (Stanhope) to say that the proposed taxes would press upon the agriculture of the country,.and upon the lower classes, the fact being that agriculture was exempted, and that the greatest care had been used that the new taxes should attach most to the higher classes, and those the best able to bear them : as to a decrease of taxation there was every dispoSithm in the Go veromeot, and must be in every Government, to lighten the burdens of the people. The Noble Ea'rl, however, must be aware that the public creditor mast be paid, and the estahlishntents for the peace and security of the country provided for ; but the fact was, that the people would be this year relieved from taxation to the amount of 9,00.0,0001. • Earl STANHOPE, in explanation, disclaimed having ever intended to impute to any one a wish to starve the people, or having at all hinted that the public creditor ought not to be paid, or a peace establiShinent provided for. After sonic further explanation from the Earl of Darnley and Earl Stanhope, the Petition was or dered to lie on the Table. Adjourned till to-morrow (this day.) HOUSE OF COMMONS. M r . POLE C. obtained leave to bring in a 13111 to amend the Act respecti ng th e asses s in g . of county Rates. It was brought up, and after a few words from Mr. Shaw Leferre, was read a first. time. Mr. H. ADDIF:GTON 0/IOW(' to say a word or two on a matter that affected the credit of the otlit - ..e to which he was attached. Last night the Hon. Member for Bedford had stated a case as coming within his knowledge. (No.) However, had stated it coui - iden/ly, which involved a charge against the Secretary of State for the Home part went, and he put a pointed question to hint (Mr. H. A ) concerning a Portuguese, named Carreja, Who, it was asserted { bad been sent out •,•• , of ells eotintry . because he h a d, no passport s i gne d by the Ambassildor, M. Souza. His impression 'at the time titas, that no such case had occurred. He had never heard of it, and it was just - possi ble it might have happened during some tempo rary absence of his from his official duties. He had enquired of his Noble Relnion (Lord Sid iin 1) if ht. had given au) such o rd er , an d t h e I answer was, that no such case had occurred, and I that the nam e was un k nown to his Lordship.— , rie had also looked through the office books, and found nothing of it, from the time that Noble Lord had held his present office. Another out's tion was put by the Hon. Member, as to soioe. rule in the Home Departments, by which 10) Por tognese was permitted to relnain in this country, unprovided with pas -ports signed hy,the Ambits- sailor. His answer to this was, that no such rule had existed, or does exist., Mr.WritrrnizEAD said, he reined the Right lion. Gentleman had not enquired fsr enough. He (Mr. ' W.) lied the written paper to which be referred, and he only desired to be set right. He hart . merely made a Mistake in the date. He did not state it as a .charge against that Noble Lord, but tort:hist a rule in the office, if it existed. CORN. After Petitions front Middlesex, Btc. SirJaMEs Straw presented a Petition from the Inhalaitants of the . Ward. of Cripplegate Without, against the Corn Bill. The Petition, he said, proceeded from a Meeting held in the Parish. Church on i'vlomlay last, and "Ton the subject of that Meeting . he, begged to say, that it was .more nuanerously at tended than any meeting Of a similar nature in the memory of man. At this meeting no party spirit was shewn ; all parties, all professions had but One object, namely, to oppose by temperance, and yet With firmness, a measure which, in their opinion, would be injurious to the interests of the country at large. The Petition, which was agreed to on this occasion, and which he now had the honour of presenting, in the short space Of three days, was signed by 4,000 persons. Mr. PaoTnEROg presented another front Bris. tol, signed by 40,000 ; more could have been had hilt no time was to be lost. This petition prayed that no alteration should be ma.'e until the circlets of peace 011 our cottimercc and manufac tures shoul,l he ascertained. Mr. H. lit7is said, that in voting against the proposed measiirc, he did not speak his own sen timents so lunch as he did those of his consti tuents. Perhaps this was the only question in which he would ever submit an opiition of his own to that of his const intents, • Lard Mit.ros presented a similar petition from Sheffield, bigtied by 18.0(H) persons. • WINDOW TAX: Lord Mit.Tort said he was directed by his cons stitnents to put a. question or t‘‘-.-o to tile Chan cellor of the Exchequer respecting the Window Duty. First, ‘vbether it WaS to apply to facto* ries, in which (cotton mamilactdries particularly) there was so large a number of windows more than were wanted merely for liOit fur ordinary purposes ? Secondly, whether those large build ings called Cloth kialls, were to be liable to the Tax ? "lhey had not hitherto been so, but it was feared that it was intended now to subject thew to it. 'Lite ClTANcsitolt . of the ExCllECtllnli observed, that the subject would come on regillarly in the course of the evening ; but he had uo difficulty in answcring thew. He intended to propwe a mo dification respecting the factories, which would diminish the clpirge. The present Resolutions included th e Cloth Halls, but, Wider the eircum- stances, that nli might be further inquired into. Lord LAscet.t.r.s had received applications specting the Cloth - •which being large buildings, required great light : there were two at Leeds, oae at Bradford, one at Halifax, and one at Huddersfield, almost covered with glass. They were rather markets than warehouses, as goods were only depo-.:ted in them when midis posed of, from one market day to another. • The CHAZ'XPLI.OR of the EXCHEQUER hoped the Hon. Member would give him paeticular-in formation on the subject. STATE OF VIE RANK. Lord A. fIAMTLTON apologised to the House for undertaking a task which many others would have been more able to perform. He was aware of the importance of the subject. There was scarcely a question of any public interest which in _sonic way or other did not involve the present. lie thought the Chancellor of the Exchequer ap peared to undervalue its importance in the 1331 which he'had proposed to the. House. lic did not mean to move for cash payments on the part of the Bank, hut to enquire whether the Bank was or was not in a situation to renew such pay ment, whether or not it was desirous, or taking measures to resume them ? His Lordship then took a vieW of the increase of the issues of paper inoney from the Bank, which from ten mil lions originally, bad amounted to thirty-one millions in the present year. Probably, in con.- sequence of those paper payments there was now no just standard of value. He feared this evil was likely to continue. All bodies corporate wished to promote their own interests, Ile would not advert to what had passed, but it was in evi •denee. before the House, that the 'Bank did not,' think it would be a.serious evil for the country that the restrictions should be made perma nent. If these opinions still prevailed, it was certainly high time for Parliament to take the subject into consideration. lie dill not doubt the solvency of the Bank, but this was no argu ment in this case. The connection existing be tween the Government and the Bank (even before the existence of the Restrictions), had always beeti an object of jealousy to . the House. According. to the Bill now in progress, a loan of three millions, free of i:r vrest, Was to he continued by the Bmk to Government anti It would be proper to enquire whether this loan, considered as the price of the Re strictions, an adequate compensation. For he regarded them as onfortunately connected with the interests of the Bank, He thought it his duty to state to the house the view which he had taken of this part of the subject. Tile capital of ! the Bank was I 1 ,500,0001. and prior to the Restrictions, the dividend on this capital was se ven per cent. In the year 1797, and the• sac- cecding ones, after the Restrictions had been im posed, immense bonuses were dis:riotiteo to (tee proprietors of the Bank. The total amount-Of these bonuses formed a dividend of fifty-i'ex per cent. on the capital,. and in money iirWariiS of Seven millions. Ile did not regret that the Ifrqri etorS of the Bank should Lave great prolits, hut that they should be at the expellee of the public. Lie 'was so strongly impressed with the importance of the subject that he had insole a motion Iw o years ago to limit the profits of the link. Another object of - the "Committee Should be to inquire how far the. Banie ought to be liable, and at what or any expellee to -retelState the il3Ual currency of the country. It had often been said, that tke paper of - the Bank had nova, forced circulation through the country. This ti ;; t ilt be the case pre vious to the re3trictions ; but%nee Bieck notes had been made age lal tender, thet e was no choice bet Ween receiving then) or taking nothing. Wheel annuitants claimed their diVidends, they must either accept the paper offertnt then), or not receive their annuities. This would form a fair subject of in quiry, for he was totally ignorant of the views... of the Bank on that point, tite . Cljancellor of the Exchequer having pr .posed his Bill without entering into any explanation of his inten tions. By the papers already produced, the House were acquei:ited, not only with the amount, but with the impure value of the Bank Tokens. It would be necessary to state whether the Bank were . not pledged to replace those by sterling value. He Wished to know whether they considered themselves bound, at any expellee, to restore theproper currency. There 'was nothing now in circulation but ehose-Tokens, which, ac cording'to rules, were worth three shiiiings less in the pound than sterling valne: lie thought the Cototnittee, if appointed, would be of opinion that the Bank were bunted to restore the sterling value at any expence. It was an evil NVllich would not stop of itself, or even remain where it now. Was. In the important discussions Which had lately taken place on an article of 'the first neces sity, he hew scarcely heard any one who did not Connect its price with tl value of the currency. Were the latter as it ought to be, he had seen et stated in a publication we thee subject, the pr ice of Coln would be reduced to 60s. per quarter. He wished .that persons connected with the Bank should state to the House at what price they would' attempt to restore the currency of the country. lie then alluded to the price of gold, which from 3/. 17s. per ounce, had risen to 41. If actuaied by motives of. Self-interest, to aug ment the price of gwd, Cioverintient had not ()thy t'ne currency of the country entirely at their mercy, but a double opportunity of continuing the 'restrictions. In the last year the amount paid for Exchequer Bills exceeded 2,000,0001. ' When the restrictions were first imposed, Exchequer Bills had inertly been converted into Batik cotes ; once kind of paper inqead of another. Thus the coon try was to pay two millions merely for tinitfex.- change, and to acquire a circulation of paper mo ney. Such a situation of things reqiiired not only investigation, beet a remedy. •The average of the price of Cor n could not be fix• d iu tine present state of the - correacy, and it might he adviseabie' . that the Bank should have no further profit until it should hare -made good the proper circulation of the land. Ile was sorry to have troubled the House so lung on a subject which others would leave been more competent to discuss „especially that part which related to thee difficulty of fixing any soil of value ice every kind of article, whilst the present standard was so uncertain,. He thought, how- • ever, that lee had sheetvn that an enquiry would certainly be desirable. Its • result lee should not anticipate ; but at the termination of a long war, and the solid re-establishment of peace, something should, be done to restore the sterling currency of the country. Ile concluded, by 'they ing, that a Committee be appointed to examine and state the total amount of all out-standing de- . mantis against the Bank, and the funds in their ' possession to meet the Same ; also tut:ll:phi e and report their opinion on the effects produced on our counnercc by the several Acts passed since 1797, continuing the . Bank - restrictions, and to examine and report their opinion how far, and tender what dinhcations, it would be expedient ito continue the same, The CHANCEeeoa of the atiCZIECILTEk was ing to allow that the proposed investigation would. involve many curious circumstances in political economy, belt thought, thOugh it might gratify curiosity, it would not answer the end in view. Ile was clot about tOStlbillit a motion for an heck , . finite period to the Bank restrictions, butt, on the contrary, for a liintation of time; after - which, it was leis sincere and sanguine hope a further ex tension would prove unnecessary. Ile was were that the present, or any other Government which might then exist, would not then think it their duty to propose another renewal of time measure. When- ever that time should come, the Bank would most cheerfully undertake thee task of restoring, tile cir culation of the country. The respoiesibility of a countenance or revival of the measure, would not rest with them, but with Government. It had not been laic!, as it had been represented, for private purposes, beet on public grounds, - sane tioned by the approbation of Parliament. When. , ever the period should arrive, the Act Would be :Mowed to, expire, and the Bank would resume its cash payments. He would shortly call upon Parliament to fix the time—that which lee should propose would be the sth of,ledy, 1816, till the next Session of Parliament, that the question should leave been seen in its fullest view, Ile con is tiered that the Noble Lord had moved for a Com mittee, chiefly in a belief that the restrictions were to be renewed for an indefinite, or at least a very long period. As this was not the case, and the object which he must leave lead in view .was already nearly attained, be eThould only enter into a cursory ex am i na ti on o f the able argnments whi c h lie le a d advanced. He hen! justly 'noticed . the caution with which Parliament had proceeded in introducing thee Bank restrictions at a time Of ft-arftll aspect. Beet the very course then folloeveds gave a lesson of caution and patience in taking off those very restrictions. The pestion would be, trhet ber the. appointment of a Commit' ee w (odd be attended With any considerable ineonveiliente ? The Noble Lord had divided the points which lie would subject to the inquiry of the Committee in the following manner Whether -the r 3
