Cotamerree on AGRICULTUR E.—On Monday last this
committee assembled at one u'elock, Mr. Gooch taking
the chair. There were then ten members present; several
other members afterwards arrived. Lord Castlereagh
was seated next to the chairman. '1 hey immediately
treiceeded to determine the course that should be pursued
• en promoting those iuquities committed to their charge
by the House of Commons. After various snggestions
and some discussion, it was resolved that they should hear
evidence, that the pat ties might be prepared to adduce in
support of the allegations of the petitions. This inquiry
is to constitute the first branch of the committee's labours.
When it was determined how the committee should direct
the investigations,lhey inquired whether any persons were
in attendance to support the kading prayer of the several
petitions. Several of the owners and occupiers of laud,
who had been insouniental in tot warding petitions to
Parliament, were again in attendance. Mr. H. C. Harvey,
of Norfolk, was called in. He underwent an extend. d
examination, occupying the committee dining the whole
of the remainder of their silting. His evidence went to
illustrate the extent of 'eduction that had taken place in
the farmer's profits, he alleging that it was front 20 to SO
per cent.; and in support of his declarations, Le brought
with him and laid beim e the committee his accounts amid
books fur the last fourteen years. Several of the docu-
ments were handed in, and ordered to constitute part of
this witness's evidence.—Adjourned.
On Tueeday the committee continued Its sitting from
•ne till four o'clock. It was more fully attended than MI
the preceding day, all the members being present, with
the exception of Lord Castlereagh and another. The
committee resumed the first branch of the inquiry—to
ascei lain the evidence in support of the alleged exteusive
distress that affects agriculture. In furthetance of such
object, William Halting, Esq. of Dillington, Somersetshit e
(at present high sherd} fur that eunnq), and John Ellmati,
jun. of Fide, near Lewes, Sussex, were examined. The
delivery of their testimony, also implicit te d by returns of
the expenditure and income of their farming concet its fot
several years, occupied the committee during the whole
of their sitting. The allegaiimi of the petitionels, which
is now being examined by the committee, is thus set fat th
tberuselves—'"lbat the contraction of the circulating
mettfuni, sevetely as it may operate, does not arise, as
many petholll who have lateen only a ►uperficial view of
the subject suppose, from any de termination oil the part
of government to take off the bank ri ict ions ; Litt flout
an teems', positive, and bone fic'e dedv halm' in the gross
colons of agrieult ut al produce, (dupes:lids of 70 millions
of pounds per antenna t tut (they continue in the sunimaty
ut ca►e handed to the niembets) whether the circulating
medium consists of metal or paper, coin and cattle, or in
other words, agricultural product —must first purchase
the greatest pot tiou of such medium, before it can be put
scirculatiust ; and if the above 2111111141 depreciation in
the value of our agricultural productions has taken place,
Ora has 70,01.0,00 ed. less of circulating medium, of what-
ever it may consist, metal or paper, been annually pur-
chased amid circulated in this kingdom, for the lust seven
years, than was created, purchased, or circulated, before
such depression took plate." The question is—Has such
diminution taken place i—Many of the genii( men who
have bee n utost active in fuming agricultural associations,
and iu presenting petitions to both houses of parliament,
were again in atletidatice.

The University of Cambridge, as well as that of
Oxford, have resolved to petition against the Ca-
