AGRICULTURAL PETITIONS.
Mr. LOCKHART repented a Petition cruel a number of
Oceop•ers of Laud itt the Counties of AalfOlk, Gleseester,
and Sussex, praying the House against the adoption of so
low a settle of protcettng duties as that proposed by the Hoe.
Membi.v fur Porlarlitieion (Mr. Ricardo), te the resolutions
he had submitted to the Hoo%e. The Hon Member dr-
scribed those Resolutions as ealeulnied In deeeive the Bri-
tish cora grower and the corner's kir hekielS alt • falla-
cious liaise at protection.

In the House we could mut caret the precise tenor of his
übstreations.
Sir T. B. LETIBBRIRGE expressed his surprise, that
after the Nubte Merriam (Londonderry) had given notice of
his iutention to move ceiteia Residettuns, which bad for
their object the pruteition of the British teriagroner from
an onequal competition with the foreign agriculturist, a
Right Hon. Gentleman, the Member fur Chichester (Mr,
Huakisman), shuad otao Intro given moire, of moving a set
of Rcsolutlinta which were akaalatrd to defeat that intro-
tiou, to which another act was also to be added by the Hos.
Member for Poriarliogioe. If those Resolutious were
pressed, be should frit it his duty to move other Resolutions
of his own., going to establish as adequate protection from
foreign grain ne favour of the &iamb agriculturist, sod the
country meet lee prepared to go to that extent —(Hear.)
Mr. H U M E was glad that one who might beconsidered as
a fair review:maitre of the landed ioiereste, bad at tenth

what they expected to boreal', dune for their relief. If the
Resolutions of the How. been! would throw any light ea
that subject, they would be of Brest public benefit; and he
hoped the Hon. Samuel would present them that ceramic,

Mr. ELLIC/3 hoped that no injurious bargain would i.e

Mr. nusiassoN. Mr. GRENFELL, and the CHAN- '
CELLOR of the LICH EeV ER explained.
The Petition was ordered to be printed.
Mr. HUME wished to know if the returns of the exprodi.,

Mr. WILMOT &Rid, that they were not completed is all •

if the Hos.Gertileinan wished it.
' lied A. HAMILTON presented • Petition from et:tiling,
-against the Rill of the Lord Advocate, fur eurteetteg •the
*bases of Royal Scotch Burghs. He complained of the coo-
tinsel abscuce of the Noble and Learned Lord, who was
seldom heard except at roar in the afternoon, or twelve at
night; hence, although he always had two or three Bills be-
fore she House, be had defeated the Isidnney of himself
(Lord A. Hamilton), and the still weenier asside.ty of the
Hon. Member fur Montrose, to catch him in his place. He
wished some friend of the Noble and Learned Lord would
conviuce bin that be ought to be In his place at least unce a
week.
The Marquis of LONDONDERRY thought that the
esealon foe the Noble and Learned Lord bringing on his
.minitioas at four o'clock or at twelve at blight, was eerily as- '
coasted for by the mode of doing the business in the Hoorn.
Had the Noble Lord used half the diligesce to give his Nis
the and Learned Friend notice, tbat he had to make his /e..
meatations to the House, he mid beet succeeded in bring.
log the Noble and Learned Lord forward a his place.
Lord A. HAMILTON said a few weeds, aod the Peter's
was ordered to he printed.
Mr. GRENFELL gave notice that he would. to•morrow,
move for copies of all correspondeuee which had taken Owe
between the Bank of England aid the Chancellor of the
Exchequer, respecting the renewal of the Batik charter.
The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER said it
would be his duty to produce the correspondence ghee the

Mr. GRENFELL withdrew his notice.

14 or . . They had ..the rffranitery to say this end _.
in two. abort months they came froward to resat-40 do
.penenee—clothed in an Act of Parliament as with a white
sheet—they panted that Bill to panitie any who 'herald give
1 less than that which they had declared to be the corona value.
if ever them was any conduct in that or any other pnblk
body whiter so completely stultified the actors, he would be
content to say that that Hog se of 1411 was &reputable Horse
of Coltman*.
Ma 310NCE remarked on the friehtfhl results they had
witnessed from varying the standard by hrtifirlal circulation.
He contended that at the impinge, the Bill of lbr.o, another
Bill should have accompanied it to adjust all mateacte,
&bey and money climes to the altered standard, and attic
them to be takes at 14s. to the pound. He remarked un the ,
errors which heel been adopted in the °plaint's of the Menthe,
for Porterlinetoe as to the real change in the value of the"
current!. and concluded by supporting the Petition.
Mr. RIC.ARDO denied that he had made the blonder
lA-
pgted to bias, that tlee diff,reece of value world be o'er
10 per cent. in a comparison of any two iseviers. He knew
very well that, comp Heil with 1312,the difference woe 34 per
cent. An he contended was, that there was no mote that,
10 ner cent. difference between the price of gold sow and In
1819. He referred, in shot,-to the thole of passing the Bill,
and not to any thing dune before it.
The Petition was then read.
Mr. MONCK explained.
Mr. R ICA R DO, io explanation, made a difference heinous
the depreciation in the value of money and the alteration in
the salute of the currency. If • particular material were
adopted as the standard for the currency, the currency would
be subject not only to the fluctuations in the quantity and
value of foolery, bet also to those belonging to the material
which composed the standard.
The Petition was ordered to be printed.
Sir T. LETHBRIDGE presented • Petition from some
part of Somerset, complaMing of agricultural distress, which
they attributed chiefly to the violent alterations which had
been effected in the quantity and value of the cuirency.
Mr. GREN FELL look Ms opportunity of calling the
attention of the House to a subject which had trauspired
this very day. A Covet of Bank Proprietors had been held,
to whom had bees stated the nature of the advantage offered
to them; be ought rather to call it the public sacrifice
which was to be made to them by the Chancellor of the Ex-
chequer. The Right Honourable Gentleman bad given the
House to understand that to revieworg the Bank charter
(a proposition to which he world always he most strongly op.
posed), it would be umeenrepanied with any of those con-
ditions so degrading to the Government and the country
which before attended it, and that all those t r nods
which had newly subverted the Government to the Bank-
were completely et se end. So he trusted it would be. Bet
the communiestiows had by the Directors with the Right
Honourable Gentleman and Lord Liverpool Todicated very
differently. No explanation bad been given of the coodi.
lions of the ten years renewal; but something might be
inferred from the fact that the Chairman eusgratelated the
Proprietors on the favourable Irons of the booms they were
to espy. After al that Hwy had seen of the grievous effects
K this monopoly enjoyed by the Bank (he had to thesk the
Noble Marquis for the sae of oo proper a term) fur tweuty-
four years past; steer feeling too severely the errors which
had given the Bank to tyrannize over the Goverment;
after mein the Bank abrogate the only useful feoctiona of
*bele eilabliabiseet, that of faciltstlyg cessmettes by their
discounts, (nod me oat meld tell the effectual relief die.
counting at fore per cent. would give to agriculture); after
all this be flintiest Ministers would have bad the te-
merity to come down end propose any thing no detrimental
as the renewal of the Bank charter. He threatened to up.
pare the project in every possibk way.
Mr. J. SMITH could hardly conceive that the Right Hon.
Gentleman would ever be brought to renew the charter fur
*whinge and yet he did not hear of any conditions of paying
fur it on the part of the Bank.

Mr. DENISON presented a Petition from Mr. Taylor,
• landed proprietor of Hereford mad some oilier rousties,
complaiseine that be had been ruined by the alteration of
the currency and agriculturist distresa. He stated that in
the year 1811 he invested the sum of 150,000/. in bred,
which he mortgaged in 1814 for 80,000/. That at the pe-
riod of the said mortgage, the currency of the country was
in such a depreciated state that the guinea in gold wan
selling fur Istroty-six shinier, In the said currency. Since
which • Bill had been pseud for the attendeea of the cur-
reney, which had the effect of increasing the actual value,
though not the nominal amuout of the interest payable on
hie mentor., so that he was oo longer able to fulfil the
the terms of his agreement. The mortgagee hail in coast-
q o foreclosed, sad the nine had been offered for sale at
Mw than hell what he had given fur it. Thr Hon. Member
added. that this Petition only stated grievances which were
endured at this aterment by a largo body of his Majestra
subjects, and he hopes the Hoare would take into conside-
ration the propriety of revision the Bill of the Right Hog.
Geatlernan (Mr. Peel), sad that Commissioners might be
appointed to detereniur the fair rate and proportion of all
coupons entered into at different peeneds of the deprecia-
tine of the currency. Veins some measure of that n•ture
were adopted, the landed gentry most be ruined; the oust
meat become a sea; and the landlord must either quit his
nue*, or become a trustee fur tasation and pauperism.
Mr.Btrjeant ONSLOW was understood to untaxed that
penooe I. the situation of the Penitence, bad no right to
complain of the effect of the alteration in the currency upon
contracts entered into when the (torrent, was in • depre-
ciated stale. The Peotionn, and others, must have kuowo
that the unsettled state of the currency which prevailed at
the period of their making 'inch contracts, could not always
coettinue ; that the cut nary must, at no distant period, re.
turn to its proper level. They entered upon their contracts
with the knowledge that such was the case, and no doubt
could he entertained oiliest forming a part of their confide-
ratios io agreeing to the terms of sorb contracts. They hail
iberefoie MU right to complain of the burdens which they
had thus brought upos themselves.
Mr. WESTERN expressed hie surprise that any onion
could argue upon this case as the Honourable awl 1. d
Geatlemag had done. He said pee Petitioner had nu right to
complain, because he must !lave known when he made his
emitted, that the currency was in so unsettled a state, that
it could not loag contemn so, and that Ism contract must be
affected by the return of the currency to its proper level.
Did not the Honourahle and Learned Geminates recollect—
did not all the country know, that at that wiry period the
Moue of Commons passed • resolution declaring the value
of • one pound note and a shilling to be equal to a guises ?
That House had by a vote, almost unanimous, decreed that •
one pound note and a shilling were fully equal in vitae to •
guinea. The Legitimist, had, in short, committed a violent
fraud on individual,. 'The How. and Learned Geode/ant
hinnelfagreed to that vute—(lllr. Se.jeant Ouster —" I had
mot a seat at the tise.l-11e begged pardon fur tbe mistake,
but he contended that be had a right to say that an absolute
baud had been committed in the case of hundreds and
thousands, who well deceived and deluded by that moo.
strously fraudulent determination, and bad settled their
transactions upon the faith of it.
Mr Serjeant ONSLOW said that the oily vote he had
given to reference to the currency, was in favour of Con.
tiering the Bank Resliirtious.
Mr. BROUGHAM said, that his Hon. Friend hod nut
done justice to the determination of that House of Com-
mons. He had binned the House for passing that most es-
traurdioary and sever-to-be-forgotten tote. Ministers
brought that same House to determine that • pound note with
a shilling and a guigea were eqoal—not in point of fact is
themselves, but tle they wire held in public estimation. cid

note. SO that having is May voted that the 11. note, which wee

POSTMASTER-GENERA 1..
Lord NORMANDY said, if he felt lees embar-
rassment in bringing this motion forward that
on the last occasion, it wes not because the full
indulgence he then experienced from the House
made him less anxious for thercomplete discharge of
his duty, as little wee it because that he expected
the dry and necessarily tedious matter of eronotsite
cal detail which belonged to the subject was coley-
latrd to hold the patient attenttern of the House. If
the question stood on the same grounds as it led
done befoie, he could not have undertaken a mute
tasteless end disagreeable leak than to renew the Wl-
lice of it so suddenly. Hut he would shew that
• circumstances heel-altered so es to mdke Oa* motion
necessary, according to the arguments used on the
last occasion in opposing it. It was on the cooducar •
of the opposers, mid not of the supporters of the
motion he relied—on their erguntenu lie relied at
press-tit ; their remarks hod been since cited help
one end of the country to the other, and their own.
speeches had furnished the charge which had beets
echoed it; ell the meetings where the &stresses of
the people had brought them to assemble.. It was
to what they had said, and what they had not said
also, !list he trusted for any new reasons wtels
which he might claim the support of the liosie.
To them he would owe the success of his own argue
meets, drawn from the novelty of theirs, that mew
les• places were, without diocritnination or scruple
lie to dwelt necessity, to be kept up to preserve the
iefigence of the Crown; en opinion more dangerous •
could nut be proposed. There was nothing to all
the bugbears ever offered in the brightest hue of
spectral phantoms held up to terrify them from the
desire of change of such ominous peril, even though

that cost of magic, could, like Banque and his

Mr. muskissoN rose to object to the practice of
dragging on discussion on topic,* already under notice for it
on days not far of, whenever there happened to be a petition
to present, though it was ten to one that the discussion had
nothing to do with the subject of the Petition. This drove
the business of the day up to seven or eight o'clock, sold
canoed die most Important portion of it frequently to be
carried over to other opportunities.
Mr. CREEVEY objected to this doctrine. The giving of
notices was quite a new doctrine. There used to be no such
thing as notices formerly, and the time tome for diceussing
grievances was always held to be no presenting Petitions.
It might be very convenient for Ministers to receive Wier,
and by preparation to dispose of the question; but the pro-.
per treatment fur sonar subjects was to submit them to die-
erosion after discussion; and what *object could be Otter,
what mode could be better for the subject than 'the one
which had been takeoffs regard to this Petition! He ►oped,
however, to see lbe Noose forego this right, with the exe►-
cise of which Ike Hos. Gentleman was no generous us to
offer to indulge them, provided they would use it moderately.
Mr. Irgb M E Laid, that the reproach of the Hon. Gentle-
man peculiarly applied to his Right Hun. Friend near ►ins;
the complaint against whom was t►at he had, without say
notice of his intestion*, suddenly brought forward a propelsl
to renew t►e Rank charter. This war the more objeetiots•
able, as it went to tie up the heads of any future Chancellor
of the Exchequer who might be anxious to reduce taxation
by altering the management of the public accounts. It
could be proved that there was a way of saving two mafioso
to the public by raising as establisbroeui seder the direction
of the State and Legislator,. The whole of the unfunded
deht, for which the Bank of England received iireie-t, might
be made profitable to the public in the mount which he hhd
stated. Another Chancellor of the Exchequer might be cosi-
vowed of this, and wish to put in force before ibe cup*y
lion of ten years. It was impossible to say what *lettl hap-
pen eves in the eleven years which t►e Charter hail yet to
run. The Right Him Gentleman was deteimined to defeat
the possibility of this advantage; be hoped, however, that
the project would be resisted, end that the country gentle-
men, who had a great Interest is opposing it, would effects-•
ally fulfil their duty.

which more isterested the feelings of the country at Om

Mee. The country bad suffered enormously by failure of
the country banks, and the House were booed to privet' the
recurrence of the evil. There were only Iwo modes left
them The one was to require a deposit of capital from the
banker enough to give reasonable seearity fur theparneut
of his notes in case of failure; the second was, to have
each an a9iliation of banks in their currency, as, from the
junction of 'many stocks, would provide s muse of capital

Thin was the superiority of the Scotch 'Nankin systems
over the English. in England, in 1793, no less than 300
English banks stopped permeate, and not one to Scotland,
