LONDON,
TUESDAY, APRIL 6, 1919.

Reports were presented last evening in both
flionies of Parliament, from the respective Com-
mittees appointed to inquire into the state of the
B ink of England, with reference to the propriety
of its resuming cash payments at the Sth or July
next. These Reports, however, contained no inti-
mation of the definitive arrangement that may be
expi cted from the deliberations of the two Com-
mittees, lint merely suggested that Parliament
should interfere to prevent every partial issue of
specie by the Bank of England, until the arrival
of the moment when the existing restriction may
with safety be removed alto4ether. The partial
issues which the Committees desire to have re-
strained, are the payinetirs in specie of all notes
hearing date before the Ist of January, 1817, and
ako the psyments of dividends below a certain
amount. A 1111 iu conformity with this suggestion
was brottp,ht into the House of Commons by Mr.
Pest., as Chairman of the Commons' Committee,
and was passed through all its stages, This Bill
will be introduced into the House of Lords this
evening, and for the purpose of pushing it through
all its stages during one sitting, the Earl of hIaR-
ROWDY, in pursuance of the motion last evenings
will more for the suspension of those Standing
Outlets which would interfere with such au arrange-
ment.

Partial issues of specie in the present state of
our circulating medium could possibly be attend-
ed with no mkr effect than to drain the Bank of
England infmt unnecessarily of its treasure, but it is
to be lamented that the necessity of preventing them
so future was not discovered a few days earlier. The
object of the ',resent measure might then be obtain-
ed without violating the most important privileges
of 1,0111 flumes of Parliament.
lu the House of Commons Lord CASTLEREAGH
gas r notice art motion, on W'eslnesday next, for
ao Adjournment to that slay fortnight. Mr. ELLIS
has abandoned the motion of which lie gave notice,
for the removal of Mr. WYTIOHASE Quve from
the Aire of CII4iOS 1:01111UM111 of the county of
Limerick.

We have received the Paris Papers of Fri-

log at Minilieim oil the 27111 of March, but fears

Petition to the KING, praying that proceedings

commotion.
