SOCIETY FOR THE EMANCIPA-
TION OF INDUSTRY.
A meeting of the members of this Society was held on
Wednesday at the office, Parliament-street, the subject of
discussion being the Bank Charter Resolutions of Sir R. Peel,
continued from last week. Mr. Spottiswood presided. The
attendance was very thin, in consequence probably of the at-
tractions of the '• Derby."
The CHAIRMAN opened the business by referring to the
dissection of the plan of Sir R. Peel made in a " Letter to
the Premier," just published, which, he said, did not leave
the Right Hon. Baronet a leg to stand upon. He then pro-
ceeded to state the effects of the Bank Restriction Act of
Mr. Pitt, which was now called a " fatal measure," but which
enabled the country to go through a long war, and pay off some
millions of its debt, and give employment to the people. But
all this was now considered a " fatal" state of things. They
were now returning to the state of things that existed before
the Bank Restriction Act, and which this measure of Mr. Pitt
was intended to remedy. The evident object of Sir R. Peel
was to make money dear and labour cheap. He would re-
duce prices, profits, and wages to the Continental level. The
question was, whether the country should sit down quietly
under it? Could it do so? Suffering and discontent were
extending among the labouring classes to a fearful extent;
they read of continual fires, the work of incendiaries; but
their system had created this feeling.
Lord MOUNTCASHEL suggested that some step might be
taken to assemble a number of Members of the House of
Commons, for the purpose of discussing and coming to some
agreement on the question.
Mr. SCHOLEFIELD, M.P., thought it would be imprac-
ticable; there was a general impression among the Mem-
bers that it was too late.
Lord MOUNTCASEIEL thought that a pamphlet explaining
the operation of this pan on the landowners would be of
much utility. The Noble Lord stated his conviction that
the plan would raise the price of money, lower the rate of
wages, and impoverish the whole of the community.
Mr. SCHOHEFIELD said its decided tendency was to make
the rich richer and the poor poorer; that appeared to be Sir
Robert Peel's policy.
Mr. PErry said that relief might be obtained by taxing
gold, or the gold currency, so as to bring it level with the
price of taxed commodities. They had, in fact, a taxed
currency during the war, and it was an error to suppose that
it was a depreciated currency ; it was equalised with the
prices of the goods for which it was exchanged.
A long conversational discussion followed, on various
points of the subject, and some steps having been suggested
for calling the attention of the House of Lords to the ques-
tion, the meeting broke up.
