darwent alterations, aue he himself expressed his dissent to
some of them, although he did not object to the Report as a
whole. Tire Right. Hots. Gentleman stated this, to show he
was not f.iirly dealt with, when the Report was ascribed to
any one Meinher of the Committee. The whole of tins Re
port, contrary to Parliamentary usage. was said to be his.
It was, however, before the House and Parliament to judge of
it. ‘Vlien he was told of inconsistency, all he could say was.

ready in discuss them, and not be backward in supporting
the impression he felt in the Committee. The Hon Member
for Norfolk, who was its the Chair, had charged him with
producing mistifications in the report, and she Member for
Sussex was appreheusive he was skilled in necromancy.
Whether those observations were well founded, he should
lee-ve the House to judge. At the same time lie declared it

always acted with napes# to this question. The Flonoor-

port in 1814. Ile might have written a paragraph, but the

Hon. and Learned Gentleman with the diploma, would hr

With respect to the 4,000,0001. to be advanced by the Bank,
he should repeat what he said on Friday, namely, that he
knew nothing of the Bank or their bullion. All he knew was,
that gold drawn from circulation increased the difficulties in
the way of returning to the original system of , ash payments
Ile admitted the Bank was ready and willing to do their
duty to the Public, and he was glad to find the Bank anxious
to throw 4,000,0001. sterling into circulation. He only re-
trz..lted there was no mode of getting it into circulation, ex-
eept-that which, was proposed. His opinion was, that they
might have discounted to that amount with more hem-fit to

tl,e country. He did not expect the 4,000,0001. to remain in
the country, but still it would be a measure of relief, whe-
ther it be in advance to the Government, or as discuunt on
Mercantile bilis

Mr. RICARDO and Mr. WODEHOLTSE explained.
Sir JOHN NEWPORT made some allusion to what had
Passed in a former discussion relative to the importation at
Corn from Ireland. into England. Such language as was used
on that subject rather surprised him, as it must be evident,
that by the market the Irish producer received in England, hr
was enabled to pay for the consumption of articles of British
manufacture. He also hoped that a limit would be given in
the order of reference, to the extent of the Committee's in-
quiries. Indeed it would have been much better if Ministers
had at once come down and brought in their Bills, arid open-
ly taken the responsibility of their measures.—(Hear, hear.)
The Marquis of LONDONDERRY admitted that it may
tecome advisable to limit the itiquir es of the Committee to
practicable results ; but he did nut think the Committee, af-
ter all the previous investigations of the former Committees,
would exceed the immediate purpose. If they -did, it was
open to any Member afterwards to propose an instruction to
limit their inquiry. He believed that all concurred in ►hank
ing, that the causes of the present Agricultural Distress had
been fully investigated. There mav, however remain some
further consideration of the state of the Foreign markets.—
At all events, he trusted that the Committee would arrive at
a conclusion soon after the holidays.
The motion for the appointment of the Select Committee
Wa3 then put and carried.

The following names were then selected :—The Marquis of
Londonderry, Messrs., Gooch, Robinson, Hoskisson, Lord
Althorp, Mr. Brougham, Sir F.. Kuatchbull, Mr. Stuart
Wortley, Sir H. Parnell, Mr. H. Sumner, Mr. Bankes, Mr.
Wodekouse, Sir Win. Rowley, Mr. Irwin, Sir T. Lethbridge,
Mr. Littleton, Sir W. Hunter Blair, Mr. Alderman Brydges,
Mr. Frankland Lewis, Sir John Newport, Mr. Goulburn,
Hon. D. Browne, &c.
Mr. HUME _thought that some Members connected with
The manufacturing interest ought to be placed on the Com-
mittee.

Th; Marquis of LONDONDERRY, as was understood, said
that the names were taken from the last Agricultural Com.
tulttee.

The House adjourned at Twelve o'Clock.

LONDON,
TUESDAY, FEBRUARY 19, 1822.

We received this morning the French Papers
of Saturday. The Chamber of Deputies re-
sumed on Friday the discussion of the project of
law on the Journals. An additional article was
proposed by General TARAYRE, the object of
which was to exempt from the operation of this
law insertions in the Journals of doctrines and
theories on Government of a general nature, as
