LONDON, FRIDAY, DEC. 4, 1857.

Well, the Speech has been delivered—the de
bate has taken place. It was strictly in accord,
ance with our anticipations. There were allusions
to the violation of the law, and the propriety of
an Act of Condonation, by which the lapses of
the Old Lady of Threadneedle-street from the
precise regulations established in 1844 should be
forgiven. But still, according to Lord GRANVILLE,
they are to be continued without modification in
all their stringency. It is not at present the in-
tention of the Government to propose any
change in the Bank Charter, but merely
" to propose the reappointment of the committee
that sat last session." This, as we have already stated,
