BANK IiEsTRICIION

On the questiun that the Bank Restriction Bill
should be read a second time,
Lord,LAUDERDALE took the opportunity of
expressing a hope that the present system would, upon
the establishment of peace, be discontinued, although
it was true that the prices of gold and paper were
sot now so disproportionate as formerly. He trusted
that the subject would be taken into seriousconsidera-
ties early in the best Session of Parliament. He ob-
jected to the draught of teBoo,ooo which had been
made by Government upon the Bank of England, as
tending to delay the resuming of cash payments.
Lord LIVERPOOL replied, that the conclusion
of peace was of all times the most unfavourable for
the purpose of the Noble Lord.. The draught upon
the Batik had not been Made without imperious ne-
cessity, and this timely supply had produced the most
.beneficiAl vonsequences upon the war. The present
Bill was only to postpone the question for six, or eight
months, when Parliament would be called upon to
decide the whole subject.
After a few words from Lord LIMERICK, the Irish
atege Coach Bill was read a second time.

of the Bill,- and he had, for himself, so objection to
it. But there was a difficulty which, perhaps, some
of the Gentlemen opposite to him could remove—
that as the Bill had been communicated to the Prin.
cess of Wales in its present state, viz. as a grant for'
life, he should feel some reluctance to agree to nar-
row that grant without the consent of her Royal
Highness. It was never intended to convey by the
Bill the idea that the proposed grant of i 635,000 a
year would be a suitable income for her Royal High-
ness when she had ascended the Throne, as her reve-
nue would then necessarily come under the conside-1
ration of Parliament in the arrangements for the
settling the Ciril List oa that occasion. However,l
it might be the wish of her Royal Highness to retain
the £35,000 a year as an independent provision for
life ; and if that was the cate it would of course be
taken into the consideration of Parliament in those
arrangements. He suggested that the best course
would bc, if the Right Honourable Gentleman (Mr.
Tierney) was not authorised on the part of the Prin-
cess to consent to the Amendment, to postpone it
until the proceedings on the third reading.
Mr. WHITBREAD said, that his Right Hon.
Friend (Mr. Tierney) had proposed, and he had se-
conded, the Amendment, merely on the ground of
Parliamentary duty, without having taken the opi-
nion of the Princess of Wales on the subject, but he
had no doubt that the Princess of Wales would con-
sent to the Amendment.. He should consent, there-
fore, either to introduce the amendment at that time
and to withdraw it on the third reading if anT objec-.
tion was made to it by the Princess of Wales, or to
postpone the introduction of it to the third reading
of the Bill.

Lord CASTLEREAGH suggested that the most
advisable plan would he to withdraw the Amend.
ment, with the understanding that it should beagain
proposed on the third reading, if the consent of the
Princess of Wales was in the mean time obtained.
Mr. TIERNEY said he should withdraw his
Amendment under that understanding. His inten-
tion was to guard the House from a recognition of a
separation, to which it would be most improper for
thetn to give a sanction.
Lord CASTLEREAGH said that the wholeßill
proceeded on the fact, that a separation between the
Prince and Princess of Wales existed, and that,
therefore, a separate income was necessary for her
Royal Highness.
Mr. TIERNEY said that his object was, that the
House should not be entrapped into a recognition
that a separation existed between the King and Queen
of these realms.

Lord. CASTLEREAGH said that ,it was not
possible for the Huuse to recognize a tact which
could not exist.

Mr. TIERNEY observed, that it Would be in
effect a recognition that such a serirat;on might and
would exist when their Royal Highnesses the Prince
and Princes; of Wales ascended the Throne.

Lord CASTLEREAGH remarked, that he
knew not how it was possible to guard these
ous persons against such a calamity, even after such
an event. •

Mr. TIERNEY observed, that it was no great
matter that the Prince and Prinzess of Wales could
not Meet in the Lame room ; but it would be most
calamitous that the King and Queen could not sit
on the same Throne.

The convers..tion then dropped.
Mr. TIERNEY proposed a verbal Ametwlwient,
which was agreed to, and an omission in the recital,
which was reported.
The House then resumed, and the Report was or-
dered to be received to-morrow.

' A Message from the Lords informed the House
that their Lord hips had passed the Insolvent Bill
and the Greenwich Hospiul Bill.
Mr. J. P. GRANT presented a Petition from Mr.
Archibald Macnaughten, who had served as a Com-
missary under Lord Wellington, complaining that
he had transmitted charges against an officer in a
regular manner to the Advocate• General and sub-
sequently to the Adjutant-General, and that they had
been returned without any reason assigned, and that
no proceedings had been instituted on them. The
Petition having been read, on the motion that it do
lie on the table,

Mr. MANNERS SUTTON said that the charges
to which the Petition alluded had been returned by
bim to the Petitioner, on the ground that it did not
come within the duties of his (Mr. Manners Sut.
ton's) office to institute complaints against any offi-
cer. As to the rejection from the Adjutant-Gene-
ral's Office, he should be prepared to account for it
if any motion were brought forward on the subject.
Mr. J. P. GRANT said that he had presented the
Petition from no knowledge as to the correctness tof
the statements of it, but under a sense of his duty as
a Member of Parliament.
Ordered to lie on the table.

The Bill for the more easy and effectual appre-
hension and bringing to trial offenders escaping from
one quarter of the empire to another was, on the mo-
tion of the ATTORNEY-GENERAL, read a second time,
after a few words from Mr. C. W. WYNNE.
A fill for the further regulation of the Thames
Police was brought in by Mr. H. ADDINGTON. Read
a first, and ordered to be read a second time to.
morrow.

On the motion for the committal of the Post Horse
Duty Bill, with a view to postpone it,
Mr. WROTTESLEY said, that he should to-
morrow move the insertion of a clause in this Bill to
suspend prosecutions commenced under the present
Act, until the next Session, in the hope that in the
interim the authors of this Bill should feel the pro-
priety of proposing an enactment that prosecutions
in future should be instituted and conducted only by
the Solicitor for the Commissioners of Stamps.
After a few wards from Mr.LUSHINGTON, who ap-
peared to approve of the proposition, the order was
postponed until ti-morrow.
The Gunpowder Bill, the Irish. Militia Pay Bill,
and the Irish Cordage Bill, wore read a second time,
and committed for to-morrow.
The Hackney Coach Bill was read a third time
-ES, after some prefatory observe-
his unwillingness to press the Poor
further at present, as there was not
carry k through the other House
Session.
