CASH PAYMENTS--(IKELANH).
Mr. C. Gaarst, in rising to move lor leave to

psysinoits, Swill that the Bank of Irelits.d had issued
precisely the same notices as those of tie Batik of

propriety of extending the measure of last night to
slYe former C pony. The some ressusis which re-
comniended i!!,e measure here, recommended it in
Ireland. A forther one was, that if such • Bill
were not passed for that country, many circum-
stances might occur there to perplex, if not re.
laid, the ultimate resumption of cash payment..

that the present motion had no reference to the
