IMPERIAL PARLIAIVIENI:

tained, previous to their taking any legislative steps
I upon the subjeft.
1 . The LORD CHANCELLOR expressed his
thorough acquiescence in what fell from the Noble
1 and learned Lord : he thought the subjeft one of
-very serious importance; it-would be preferable, as'
things stood, to let the Bill remain as it was, than
to enaa the provision proposed by the Noble. Lord.
The suitors, in the alteinative alluded to,. had ,the
I appellants jurisdiCtion to resort to. His Lordship
also was adverse to such a step being taken, without
1 full and adequate infor#iation on the subjeft, relating
I :to the. charneter Of the administration of justice in
1 another part of the United Kingdom, which was a
1 point of considerable importance. -He concluded by
i
I recommending the Noble Lord, under the pre.
1 sent circumstances, to withdraw the motion.:
I Lord KING, after a few words- in explanation,
consented to withdraw his motion ;on which, •
The LORD CHANCELLOR felt it incumbent
on him to return his thanks to - the Noble Lord fOr
1 the very handsome manner in which he had with-
' 1 drawn the motion.
I 1 When one of the subsequent clauses was come

to,
Lord KING- again rose, and made some genee'd
observations upon the injurious effeas of excessive
issue of Paper in Ireland, as well in reference to the
Course of Exchange, as the depreciation of the cur-
rency. Under these impressions, he proposed the
introduaion of a Clause tending to set a limit to the
issue of Paper by the Bank of Ireland : his Clause
would go to fix the limit of the Paper issue to the',
amount it was on the aeil, :,1 November last, the
latest period to which the Accounts were made up :
this would give room even for an excessive-issue, as
it was upwards of 2,900,0001. which was aoo,oool.
anore than what it was in the year iBoz. He en.
tered into a few calctilations respeaing the injurious
-effea the increased•issue had on the state of the Ex-
change, and•,Concluded by moving a Clause to „the
above eff.d. . • . •
Lord HAWKESBURY deemed it his duty to re-
akt the ;KV priori of-the clause pioposed by the No-
ble Lord, against which he argued,; chiefly on the
ground. of the impropriety of legislating on such a
principle in-Sills of the description or that before the
House: Ir Would-go to legalize and to Sanaion the
issue of Paper _to a particular -amount, to a degree
beyond what the Legislature could intend to do
•in'such a 'case; and fUrthr, it wo:dd he giving an
express opiuion on the part .of the Legislature, as
to the precise amount .to which the issue of Bills
shcuhl extend.. Under the present circumstances,
he, thought i+ Would he preferA:e to trust to the dis-
'cretion of the Bank Directors, which he thought
would be soundly used, and their. issue regulated
according ,to 'circumstances, which was" the.case
with the Bank' of, Englanti, sc,nctimes uure and
sometimes less-; iluauatmg 'in their issues, with .a
reference to, existing:tircumstarre.s. . Such a provi-
sion was• the •le'ss.nesary, Ix; the controlling'
powers of the' clauses in• the Bill alluded to in an'
early-parr of tile disscwsion, were considered. He,
hoped the Noble. Lord did: not mean to press the
- clause.
The Earl of DARNLEY did not mean then to
give any -opinion upon :the `points -under discussion.
-He entertained a .tavoirrable- opinion of the Irish
Bank Directors, whouvhe trusted would not make
-an improper' use. of • the discretion vested in them ;
but he thought it would be best to-wait until the re-
sult of. the- pen-ding Inquiry was known, and not
to take•anyiegislarive step:whach may have. the ap-'
. pearance of prejudging the question.
Lord KING shortly explained his reasons for
wishing to adhere' to his. proposition.
The question thereon was then put, when it was
negativedi
' The remaining parts of the Bill were then agreed
'to by the Committee, and the House resuming, or-
dered the Report to be received to-morrow.
Some priVare-business was then disposed of; after
which their Lordships adjourned till. THREE
o'clock to-morrow. .
