of the late Lord Liverpool and the present Lord Goderich, aided
and assisted by the much lamented Mr. Huskisson, in 1821, fol-

report now in circulation " that the Bank of Ireland is about to ob-
tain a charter continuing the monopoly in, and five miles outside,
the City of Dublin," is well founded, being of opinion that the Le-
gislature will never assent to such an injustice as to put the Metro-
Molis under restrictions from which the rest of the kingdom is free.

portant crisis against extending or perpetuating a monopoly ex-
cluding fair competition, and calculated to retard the improvement.
