The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER moved:''
the Order of the Day for resuming the adjourned
Debate respelling the amount of the Public Debt.r--
After that Order was read,'he said, that as he had
some additional Regulations to propose, he wished '
for a further adjournment, in order that these Re.
solutions might be previously printed and discussed
along with the others. He then moved the Re.:
solutions, and postponed the further consideration
of this question till to.morrow.
Mr. VANtiITTART said, that as he did 'not con-
ceive that this subject ' would be sufficiently eluci.
dated by the Resolutioni that had been suggested,
he would to.morrow move some additions, in order
to render the inferences more clear and distinet.—
For that purpose he found it necessary to move for
the production of two accounts. The one entitled
an Account or Estimate of the Duties of Customs
and Excise, charged in Great Britain, or outstand-
ing upon Bond or otherwise, from the sth of April
:303, to the sth of April 184, distinguishing the
several Articles and Duties ; and the other, an Ac.:
count or Estimate of the Amount of the Duty -t o.
Property, due and outstanding; from the' same. date,
so tar as the same can be made upe+Agpited to.
CORN III!. I,,lr'' '' .4
0.44
Mr. WESTERN !mil& U • if.' for Regulating
the importation and Exporpti ii of Corn, which,
he said, was, in substance .and circa, in all its
Clauses and Provisions, precisely similar to the one
lately re.keted in that House, on account of the
Amendments made by the House of Lords, except
in so far as related to those Amendments. He
hOped that the Bill would meet with the approba.
lion of the House, and moved that the Bill be read
a fir:t time.

Lord ARCH. HAMILTON said, he had various
übjetitois to urge against this Bill, but he should
content himself at present with asking the post.
ponement of it to another Session. There was one
particular point to which he wished to draw the at.
tention of the House, he meant that part of the Bill
which went to regulate the Importation of Grain
from Ireland into Scotland, which would operate
to the disadvantage of Scotland by the average price
being c,,mpaieti, not by the prices in the different
DistriCts in Scotland, but by those of the Districts
in Ireland. tie wished to know, from .the Hon.
Gentleman who moved the Bill, how such -mateers
were 110.±V to .be regulated.
Mr. 117:;STERN said, the avowed intention of
this Bill was to, regulate the Importation and Ex.
portation of Grain from Ireland to Scotland, by the
average prices of the four Maritime pistriet!i of
Scotland, in such a manner as not:to impede in the
tonality degre,, the Importation of Oatmeal from
Ireland into Scotland. The object 'of the Bill was
also, in a great measure, toopen the Ports, and en.
courage the Corn Trade between Great Britain and
Ireland. The difference of the Prices was at any
rate hut trifling in Scotland and Ireland, nor amount.
ing in general to mare than i.Bth. He hoped,
therefore, that the Hon. Gentleman would defer the
further. statement of his objeCtions till the Bill was
Conitliit •
The Hill was then read a firstand ordered to. be
read a second time to-morrow, and to he printed.
Mr. Coital, moved, that the Account of Irish
Linens expelled, which had been presented to the
Home, should be printed.-Ordered.
