Mr. BARING, in offering himself so the Come
rnetee, did not mean to go into all the branches a
this interesting and extensive subjett. lie eras es.
prchrnsive he should nut find many Gentlemen, even
on the side of the House from which be usually
spoke, who would agree with hint in his-views of the
question. He, to he sure, did not know what ntight
be the sentiments of a Right Hon. Gentleman jar.
Ro,c) on the other side, who bad been the to to of
tile people in a case like the present. It should be
the object, as it undoubtedly was the inttesstt of
evtry nian, and every class of men, to 4o that which
k best for the whole country, under the particular
circumstances of the case ; but it was hardly to be
expected, that the feelings of prejudice, of partiality,
or of interest should not operate in some slight de.
,tree upon such an occasion as this. Hence we ha
seen Gentlemen interested in agriculture, and Gen.;
tiemen interested in commerce, almost invariably
taking contrary sides. The Members of that COM..
mittee, and of that House, au ht, however, to watch,
narrowly their feelings upon the subject in *haw ;
for they had all taken their oaths that they were in-
terested parties in the possession of land to qualify
them fur their seats, though he was persuaded this
would h tve no effect upon their deliberations. The
table ef the House was covered last year with Peti-
tion; from all parts of the country inn to alter the earn LIIV3, and what was the •reason it was not so'
oa the present occasion ? Why, because the people
naturally and fairly presume, that the declare-
ti..n which they had then made, would have its full
tv,ight in the present eonsideraticin of the Hoose.—...
a':.tt there was no alteration in the public feeihreasi
pretty clear, unless it was an ;metaled opposit oe to
any measure that they thOtsght likely to have the effect
''f increasing the price of corn. Tbe eiptrienee at
Warminster and Maidstone wai decisive of this fact.
At the ("nlier place, eituatedin the mitist of an exten-
sive corn county, the meeting upon the sabjeet *air
obliged to be held in a private /Waif and it the titter 1
a Noble Lord, for whom he felt every degree of re-
seect, was caged to state that the object of the pro.
)(acted Bpi was to produce low prices of corn. Butlf •
this waif the object, how was it possible it could satisfy
the number of agriculturists,' who say it they heoe'rtig
higher prices, they shall all be ruined ? What be had
st 4 ted on a former night, .had been rather misrePre-
untvd. He did not charge the Right •Honoursible
Gyitleman with an intention of bringing forward thef
liiiirct prematurely. He thought, on the contrary,
tli.a a question of such magnitelde could cheat be brought
fenward too early. All he meant t• have said wets'
le al, y intention to form a permanent system of &WO
LYs would. be premature at preient, and he thou*
tl'ii on many accounts. The price must be influeadild
by our paper circulation, and by the emulation 'of'
c` entry banks, upon 'which he would read to the Cott-'
reittee what had been said by one of the most sensible
