that such Cures •hay.e,,been. effected-on an 'average irrabout

suits of the Patients, and without occasioning them any pain
or inconvenience.

Secondly, That the Daranian Dispensary do make itself
an organ for promulgating the.knowledg of this Most' im-
portant "fact,meniorizing the inestimable benefit now pro-
mised and insured to those afflicted with Hernia or Rupture,
namely, A SPEEDY, PERFECT, and RADICAL CURE. -

6! W►th respect to the Corn-bill, as a relative measnre con-
nected with the Bank resuming Cash Paynients, I cannot but
reply to some of the arguments adduced against it, when de-
bated in the Houses of Parliament.

" An Hon. Member of the Housc.of Commons ironically
asked, if it would be advisable to raise, by restrictions on the
importation of Corn, the price to such a point as to enable
the farmer to use a " watering pot?! to encrease his quan-
tity? On that subject an issue is joined with the worthy
Member, whose opinious on most points
_are entitled to the
highest respect; hut, he must not be allowed to withdraw un-
der the persuasion, that p'olicy turns the, argument in his
favOunLquite the contrary; opinions, on re-ton-
sideration, my possibly be somewhat altered, by laying down
the following P).sition for his reflection, viz. that if, by em-
ploying .all the idle hands, .or busbandmen out of work,
throughout the Kingdom, they would be enabled to produce
more coin than would supply their wants, (watering pot aird
all,)—if their labours produced only. one pint of wheat from
each man, beyond his own support, it would he the most
.politie measure which could be adopted. • What can be ito
strong an incentive as holding up to the Agriculturalist the
expectation of remuneration by an extended price; or at
least the reasonable assurance that he should.have no foreign
competitin, on more favoured terms than himself, if he had.
not an exclusive market ?
. .

" .It may be laid down, as an.inccontrovsrtibleaxiom, that
man in every.Fountvy ought, by ,sonie means, to gain his own.
subsistence,. and ,not depend, on a -foreign supply for that
which can be raised at home. (tight be not to male any sar_
critice rather than resigir his claims to independence by sup-
porting himself, and becolning a proud and usetyl.member
of society; deniandintg— from his country a lust recompence

EST, BLISLIMENI' OF 11ER LATE MAJESTY.

'The Earl of LIVERPOOL moved the order of the
day for their Lordships' taking into consideration
his Royal Highness the Prince Regent's. Message
of yesterday, which being read,
1 he Noble Earl rose to move an Address to his
Boyal Highnrs; on the occasion. A brief men-
titsit ot the nature of the goestion now before
heir rsoidsliips, would, he smceieed, he amply
"efficient, tooter the eircouisiacces, to influence
their determioatious. bite sum of 55.0001. per
ifichtt,Med in the 11.1,4 ehhhti4wie,ttioh

tion of the Civil List, e filch, by the I:omitted
demise of her late 'gajesiy, fril to the disposal
of the Cron n. This sena aa, MlOCttlfinably asp
pficable, at the disci et ion of Ilia Royal Highness,
to other departments of the Royal Ilouschohi
11:0i as the Lord Chamberlain's, the Loyd Stew-
atd's, or that of the Master of the llot se, but as
it sell out, it could not be applied to the parti-
cular purpose for which the Prince. Reyient, un-
der these cirenmstantes, graciously proposed it,
as the amount ot pril6loll3 Was, by the general
law upon the sohject, restricted to 90,0001 per
annum. In In met caeca similar to the present, -
the practice was precisely that now proposed for
adoption, and independent of the regular advice
offered to Ilk Royal Highness on the. occasion,
he was influenced by his own judgment and the na-
tural feelings of his own heart to place the sum in
question at the disposal of Psoliament,at- the
anise time patting it to the feeling or justice of
Parliament, to accedes(' that: course of procedore
sel.ieb had been adopted upon all former -occae
&lona of the kind, viz. the secusings the aecus-,
tometi• provision to those individuals who had
long fool faithfully seeved,her-late Mujestv, in dif-
fsrent departments of her household. The con-
tinuation, not of their full allowances or emo-
luments, hot of their respective salaries, was
what was proposed. The extent of these would
not in the aggregate exceed 25,0001. per annum,
'whist' would leave a clear sum of 33,0001. per
*anon) immediately. subject to the disposal of
Parliament. The saving which accrued was [store
than butt the sum which had been allotted for her
Majesty. He felt he merely bad but to mention
the circumstance to induce the just and liberal
minds of their Lortiships'to concur in enabling
his Royal Highness to carry his visions inten-
tion into dr...cf.—Ow, hear should, no
longer detain their Lordships, than to move an
humble Address to the Prince Regent, on the
occasion of his most gracious Message, acknow-
ledging the liberality of his determination in plat'
ing the aiim Or. question at the disposal of Parlia-
roent, and ascot big -his Royal _Highness that the
'louse would cordially 'concur in attending to
those claims which his Royal Highness had re-
comtnentied to the attention of. Parliament on
behalf of those bolls-Mullis who were long the
faithful servants of her late Majesty.
The Marquis of 'LANSDOWNE said, he certainly
(lid nut mean to offer any objection to what the
Noble Earl had specifically proposed. At the
same time he must be allowed to say, the subject
to which the Message referred, appeared to him
to involve a question of considerable importance.
meant chiefly as it seemed to assume a power
in the Crown, optionally, to place the sum in
question at the disposal wf Parliame»t ; as he
conceived such an assumption to be inconsis-
tent ss.-1:!1 the last Act on the subject of regu-
lating the Civil List. By that Act the, different
satins appr-ptiated were exclusively for parti-
cular services or departments of the Civil
List. The Establic'trient of her late Majesty
was one of those services ; and the principle of
appropriating the funds allotted for this to the
service of other branches of the Civil List, may
be carried to a length which he thought it never
could be in the intention of the Legislature to have
sanctioned. Such were his ideas as to this part
of the question. At the same time, be could not
think of hesitating to pay the same marks of re-
spect to the memory of her late Majesty which
was customary on former occasions of the kind.
Ile also expected the Noble Earl would have
taken the oppoitunity to say something of the
inlet,' inns with respect to other'parts of the Royal
Establishment, to which the attention of the de-
liberative wisdom Parliament had already its
some measure been directed.

The Rat of LAVERN-4M observed, that the sub-
ject now before their Lot dships was completely
distinct from those parts of a more ex,emive ar-
rangement to be considered in another place, and
alluded to by a Noble Marquis. W:iat was at
present before the other House was a course of
inquiry on topics which, on a future day, would
.regularly come under the consideration of their
Loidships. With respect to the particular'objec-
tion of the Noble Marquis, as to the course pur-
sued, as militating against the Act for regulating
the Civil List, passed about three years since, he
could by no means agree with him that the
present procedure was in the least against the
spirit of that Act. The 58,000/. in question was
originally set -aside from the Civil List, for sup-
porting the establishment of her late ithjesty,
•Avith 'an eventual discretionary power in the
Crown to apply it afterwards to other branches of
the Civil List.. The expenses of other depart-
, ments of the Civil Litt were certainly applicable
eventually to the general service of the public.—
When pensions were granted on the Consolidated
Fund, the amounts, on their ceasing by the de-
mise of the parties, were applicable to the public
service. With respect to those on the Civil List,
in sonic eases:. it was different ; and in the pal-6-
cnlar case now before the House„the Appeal was
from the Illustrious Personage himself, who had

spontaneously placed the whole suns at the dis-
posal of ,Pailiament.—(Flear, hear!)
The Address was then voted nem. dig anti or-
dered 'to be presented by the Ltreds, with white
staves, to the Prince ,Regent..—Adjourned
till
Monday.

BANK versus i\IINT.

Ma. Ebtrott,—The Depredators have at length
found out that Bank Not es may be at a premium ;
for such is the absolute import of the information
so knowingly imparted by a great Financier to the
Chancellor of the Exchequer in Tuesday night's
debate, if the Public cbube to pursue the same
course as has been taken by melters and ex-
porters fur some time past. If the reasoning for-
merly hell out to prove the depreciation of Paper
WAS cot rect, its converse must now be true ;hut I
will nor press this argum,•nt against the Depre-
ciqtors fiirther than to observe, that the very
fact there stated points out two material errors
which have hitherto bewildered them. . .

The first is (heir neglecting to recollect that the
high prices paid for Gold are not for the purpose
of internal circulation, though, perhaps, in "a 5m,a1l
degree, for house consumption, but for the pln•-
pose of exportation. In this respect too there is a
wide diffvrence between Bullion and Gold, even
when the prices are at the Mint standard ; for
though a :certain number of Guineas are then
equal at..home to a certain quantity of Bullion in
value, yet there is a difference between the weight
of the Guineas and the actual weight of the
Bullion, which makes that Bullion more valuable
than the Guineas for foreign exporlation. There-
fore, if we had no Paper Circulation, the exporter
would always send Bullion abroad when at the
Mint price ; when above the Mint price and be-
yond the seignorage, his Guineas would bop less
than their own weight, and, therefore, instead of
buying Gold, be would melt them into Bullion ;

but it Gold should fall below the Mint standard,
lie would a;ai❑ become a Bullion buyer, nay, he
would even go further, for be would either buy
the Bullion, and hoard it as a marketable article,
or send it to the Mint for coinage, for the sake of
the immediate profit being then greater then the
seignorage.

The second mir consists in their referring the
nominal price of Bullion to Bank. Notes solely,
without reference to their absolute representative
quality in regard to Pounds Sterling in account,
or in the market of borne consumption.
They argue thus, " the Mint'price is so much,
but the Market price is more (forgetting that the
one respects coined Gold, the other Bullion) ; of
course I must give more Bank Notes for a pound
weight of Gold than I did a month ago, when
Gold was at Mint standard, and therefore Bank
Notes are depreciated." •

Bur let me ask again, provided we had nothing
but a Metal Circulation, and beef were to he at a
shilling instead of nine-pence per pound, all other
mtoket prices remaining stationary, would they
argue that Coin was depreciated ?
Or, again, it Gold were to remain at the Mint
standird, and Silver to rise above it, would they
argue that Gold was depreciated ?

But, Sir, I will drop these possible cases, and
look at the question according to existing facts.
Now, then, let its suppose that I, or you, or any
of the Depredators. with twenty Sovereigns in one
pocket, and twenty One Pound Notes in the
other, shall set out to purchase an article, a Shawl,
for instance, and looking out -for linen-drapery
and haberdashery shops, may► perhaps, drop into
that of an Alderman and M. P.--4he buyer asks
for Shawls, and some are shewn him at 20Leach.
lie selects one, and pays for it twenty Sovereigns.
After a moment's consideration he cl►iiyes another,
and offers his.twesitv Think Notes. Now, Sir,
give me leave to ask will the worthy Alderman re-
quire sixteen Shillings more ?

Or, if the buyer pays Notes for his first Shawl,
and Sovereigns for Lis second, will that respect=
able Linen-draper offer him a discount ?

Or, again, if the price of the Shawl were to be
twenty Guineas, would the honest Haberdasher re,-,
fuse twenty Sovereigns and a Pound Note
will answer No ! nor would any .other. decent
Shopkeeper or fair Trader in London.
I trust then, Sir, the Honourable Gentleman
will boldly ride to Edmon—to Westminster, 1
mean, and there manfully correct the errors into
which Theoristsare falling, and have fallen, respect-
ing Gold and Paper. He has manfully and ra-
tionally declated his sentiments on the .insolvent
Bill, both in Common Council and in Parliament;
and I trust that in all cases where the real good of
the Country is involved, he will do the same ! In
other cases Party Tactics may and must exist, fur
even they promote our welfare.

ANALYSIS AND COMMENTARY:
(Cgutinued.)
There ere several subordinate provisions and
enactments auxiliary to the purposes of the Act,
in reference to the protection of the Debtor, and
the rights of his Creditors.
ANNUITANT! Of the Debtor on bond, covenant,
or other security, are entitled to claim and re-
ceive Dividends in the same manner and upon
similar terms and conditions as Creditors for An-
unities are- allowed to do under the Bankrupt
taws, subject however to the terms of the pri
soner's engagement or recognizance for future
payment in case Ire shall become able to pay.
IVith regard to the liability of future property to
its full extent, there is much ground fur argu-
ment on the principles of policy and natural jus-
tice. Atrl although it would ill become an in-
dividual to pronounce a decision, it may be per-
mitted hint to ytestion the propriety of such a
distinction with regard to minor Insolvency, when
it is not found to apply to Bankruptcy. In re-
terence to the latter, a Certificate affords protec-
tion. And when it is considered that the liability
of future earnings has of temptations to
emigrate, it does not seem good policy, that suh-
seqiiently acquired property should wholly become
liable to anterior Debts, under the operation of
the Insolvent Act.

INTEREST OT DEBTS.—The Act f►rrther pro-.
that from the date of the PrisOnei.'s dis-
charge, all interest on debts bearing interest shall
cease; .but it it shall afterwards appear, that the
estate and effects of the 'lnsolvent are not only
,ttlicient fur the payment of the principal of the
Debts wherefrom he was discharged out of cits-
totly, and all Other Debts of such prisoner, and to
afford him•means of subsistence, but are so con-
siderable as to render it fit that interest should be
pill, the Court may order interest thereon, re-
garding alwayS the unproductive state of the
prisoner's effects during the Administration thereof,

PEOCEROINGS OF THE COULiT.—II is 11130 en-
acted, that the proper officer of the Court, shad,
►n reasonable request of the Prisoner, or of any
Creditor, produce and share, as the Court shall
direct, all the proceedings had in the tnatt•er re-
lating to such prisoner, and that copies of sod)
proceedings shall be admitted as evidence in.)any
Court, withOnt:being written on Stamped paper.

MORTGAGES AND JUDGSIENTS.—Proviso, that
nothing iw the said Act contained shall,prevent
any mortgage, charge, or lien, upon the pri-
soner's estate or-effects, if made prior to his dis-
charge, being-effected upon the said estate. :.And
where any inquisition has been taken upon any
Statute, or Recognizance, or any Writ of Exe-
cution has been delivered to a Sheriff or his Offi-
cer, before the discharge of the Prisoner, the per-
sonal Estate of the Po isoner shall be subject.
thereto in the same manner as it would have been
subject before the- passing 'of the Act. Rot it
will be seen by snbseptetit provisions that such
charges on the'property are to be bona fide and
nor colourable,'or with any undue preference.
OFFICERS 'AND CLERGYMEN.—As a protection
to Officers of the• Navy and Army, ss well as to.
beneficed Clergy men or .Curries, possessing li--
mited incomes, and becoming insolaent, 4;,(1 ris a
caution to tradesmen 'and. others not to give du-
- guarded credit to persons so circumstanced, it 1'
enacted, that the'pay of such Officers, or the
conic
of any benefice or curacy, shall not 'tie' li'
be to
the claims 'of Creditors. I'rvvided, i►u y-

pgßjoßy,—lt is enacted, that -any prisoner, or

of the Act, and wilfully perjuring himself, shall,
on conviction, suffer such punishment as by law
may be inflictol, on oilier persons convicted of
wilful and corrupt Perjury.—Considering the vs-
riot's provisions of the Act, which subject the pri-
soner to be closely and strictly questioned and ex-
amined, as to the truth of his Scheduk, and to a
full disclosure of his estate ointleffects,' as well a's.
the faithful surrender thereof, and also the
responsibility of other persons coircernetl'or con-.
fleeted with the affairs o! the Insolventiti.s eta
actment must appear highly laudable, anti evinces
- the wisdom aril justice of Parliament in prOviding..
proper penalties to restrain or punish moral
tur-
pitude and fraudulent conduct.
EFFECT OF DIsCHARGR.--The prisoner having
obtained his discharge, under the Insolvent-Act,
is toot to be again imprisoned by reason

judgment Or decree obtained for payment Of mo-
ney, or tor any debt, daritages;- contempt for non-

ed, or growing tine, with respect to which such

rest fur any such debt. or demand, a Judge is au-
thorised to release the prisoner, and to order the
plaintiff to pay the costs incurred by such pri-
soner. Butt it is provided, that no prisoner assail
he discharged by virtue of the Act from any debt
incurred subsequent to his application to the
COurt for such discharge front the debts included
in his Schedule, and as tO any such new debt the
prisoner may be remanded.
If any action of escape, or any snit he brought
against any Judge, Justice of the Peace, She, iii,
Gaoler, or Keeper of a Prison, or any person for
Ilse performaueel of his duty uttthw the Act, the
