when Mr. Banks, jun. (himself a Commissioner)
said, " he thought that the Act passed last Ses.
sion of Parliament provided a sufficient remedy
for the evil complained of." In consequence of
this representation, it was suggested that the
returns should be limited from the first of Sep-
tember last, when that Act came into operation.
/Now the prohibition created by 5 Geo. 11. 3.42,
which enacts that any Commissioner eating or
drinking at the expence of the bankrupt's
estate, or ordering such expenses to be made,
shall be disabled for ever from acting in such, or
any other commission ; so much is copied in the
Consolidation Act ; but in amending the law, the
words, " or other persons" have been omitted,-
so that though the Commissioners may not eat or
drink at the cost of the Estate, the Solicitors,
Clerks, Assignees, and Accountants may. See-
ing how negligently our laws are made, can we
wonder that they are not better enforced ? The
Returns are ordered from the Ist of May,lB2s,by
which means the Inquiry is defeated, for these ex-
pences can only be ascertained at the audit from the
tAssi4nees' accounts, and Solicitors' bills of costs.
Now the May expellees may not have been audit-
ed till December (it' then), consequently all will
escape except those whose roalversations have
been recorded within the last two month... It is
'due'to the London Commissioners to state, that
these and many other complaints are confined to
the .country practice, which practice, though
flagrantly objectionable, the Chancery Report
does not propose to amend.

[MORNING POST.]
In the House of Commonx
_list night, the
Chancellor of the Exchequer moved that a Se-
lect Committee be appointed to inquire into the
state of the circulation of notes' under the value
of 51. in Ireland and Scotland ; and to report
their observations and opinions , thereon to the
!louse, particularly with reference to the expe•
diency of applying to those countries, the Mea-
sure now proposed to be adopted. in England.
Nothing can be more reasonable, satisfactory, or
just than the grounds upon which thejtight lion.
Gentleman proceeds in this respect. netted already
expressed a confident opinion that it would ,be
in-
convenient to have the currency of Ireland and
Scotland subject to principles different from those
by which the currency of England was to be re-
gulated. From that opinion he did not now
withdraw ; but nevertheless there might be cit.-
CUMStaIICNS connected both with Ireland and
Scotland, and more Particularly
with Scotland,
which would render their principle less appli-
cable to those countries than to England. As
there were some differences in circumstances be.
t w een England and Scotland, and as in the
latter country a very strong feeling prevailed
against any alteration . of the system of its cur-
rency, he thought the wisest way would be to set
the question at rest by a full, free, and unre-
served investigationoluring the progress of which
the persons who thought themselves in te-
rested might have sufficient opportunity of
being heard.!-- After a short conversation,
the motion was put and carried. Mr. Wynn
obtained leave to bring in a Bill to sus-
pend the Act of 53 Geo. 1I I. so far as it re-
lated to the appointment of Writers to the East
Indies, and to remove doubts as to the legality
of paying the allowances of Officers, Civil and
Military, dying, during their absence from India.
This measure was rendered necessary from the
"adequacy of the College at present to furnish
number of young men which the extension of

our territory, and the increased number of states
which had become subsidiary to us, now indis-
pensably required.—Upon the motion for the
second reading of the Bill for the Prevention of
Cruelty to Animals, an amendment was moved
and carried without a division, that the Bill be
read a second time that day six months. The
Bill was of course lost. In the [louse of Lords
the Promissory Notes Bill was read a third time
and passed, after the rejection of a proposed ad-
ditional clause by Earl Grosvenor.

[THE PUBLIC LEDOEII.I
A Turkey mail arrived yesterday, bringing
letters from Constantinople to the nth ult.
Great preparations were making to improve the
advantages already achieved over the Greeks ;
and besides a large body of troops, destined to
join Retischid Pasha, another corps was to pro-
ceed to the further extremity of the Gulph in
order to disperse the bands which Goura and
other Greek Leaders had collected in that direc-
tion. It was intended, it is said, that this
corps should afterwards enter the Morea by
the Isthmus of Corinth. A considerable naval
force was also preparing to reinforce the Captain
Pasha ; and, if the Porte can but give effect to
all these demonstrations, there is much reason to
fear that this will be the last year of this pro-
tracted and sanguinary struggle. The letters
►bound with contradictory speculations on the
mission of the two Turkish Plenipotentiaries
sent to the Mores. According to one they are
sent to negotiate with the Greeks, and accord-
ing to another to receive the submission of
that People. A third statement says that their
only object is to organize the administration of
the country, which is considered by the Porte as
all but conquered ; and, lastly, they are said to
have been appointed for no other purpose but to
confer with Ibrahim Pachn, as to the terms by
which he is to hold the Government of Greece,
as Lieutenant to the Sultan. From the contra-
dictory character of these several rumours, it is
pretty evident that not one of them is derived
from an authentic source. The Porte, barbarous
as it is in its policy, is as refined as any other
Power in the art of hiding its proceedings; and
its intentions are seldom discovered, us Wog
as it sees a necessity for keeping them secret.

[THE REPRESENTATIVE.]
We were sorry to perceive at one of the Police
Offices, some resurrection mien brought up for
carryinfc on their disgusting trade. NVc are quite
aware of every thing that can be said against the
practiee, anti knew very well that
there is no
arguing against the muurni feeling which it must
