it was the intention of the Noble Earl, at the head of his Ala-

BANKS OF .SCOTLAND AND IRELAND. •
j The Earl of LIVERPOOL moned, pursuant to notice, for

diem°, of extending the Promissory Notes Bill to Scotland and

LtvERPOOL, Lord Kiwi, the Marquis of LANSDOWN, Lord
CA LuDon, and Lord DUDLEY and WAnn, watramong the
Committee.

......
The Earl of LIVERPOOL then moved that the several pe-
titions on the subject of Banking in Ireland and Scotland be
referred to the the said Committee.
Earl GROSVENOR expressed surprise that his :Majesty's
Government, after obtaining so much information on the sub-
ject of Banking, should refer the question to a Committee. He
thought for one, that it would have been a More dignified pro-
ceedingto have come forward with a Bill to regulate the Bank-
ing system in the United Kingdom. It appeared that Govern.
meat had been alarmed by the cry of Malachi 411alagrowther.
—(A laugh.)--The more he c,onsitiered the subject, the more
he was convinced there could be no confidence in the country,
unless the suggestion made by
himself last night was adopted.
There could be no eontience among the lower classes, it' the
Country Bankers were not compelled to pay gold for their
notes. A law compelling them to pay gold would be an ad-
vantage to the Bankers themselves, because it would give them
stability in the eyes of the public.
The Earl of LIVERPUt-H riot rise to enter into discus-
sion of the subject, which must shortly occupy the attention of
a Select Committee but he could not avoid saying the Noble ,
Earl's argument on the question was Of an extraordinary nature:
h was underatood, that it became necessary to put an end to
the circulation of one and two pound notes in England, and the
question arose whether it would be expedient to extend the
provisions aim Act for that purpose to Ireland anti Scotland.
—TIN intentions of Government had been expressed ; they
wished to extend the Bill to Ireland and Scotland, Ina not mud.
denly. A general sentiment had prevailed in Scotland against
that extension, anti the table was covered with rtittons on the
subject'. What was then the most ,decorous count. of proceed.
ing ? Why, to recommend the appointment of u Couierittee to
inquire into the fads stated in those petitions, and see whether
the Timeworn; of the Bill ought to be extended to Scotland and
Ireland or not. If the Noble ford who considered the proceed.
of extending the Act to S.,lcot.
ing a matter of form, would see who were the Members of the
Committee, he 'you'd have a different opinion respecting the
inquiry. The Noble Earl tool heard nothing to Owl his own
opinion respecting the expeiliencY
though he allowed that there
bold and Ireland, but still it was desirable for the satisfaction.

Ministers try firm, how the measure would act in England ? If
It acted quietly and prosperously, and tamed out to be ofhene-
fit, thet might then have some ground to propose its extension
to Scot and. There was no immediate cause to change the sys
