SPANISH SINKING FUND.
•
MADRID, FEBRUARY 7.
The following is the preamble of the Royal Decree
'of the 4th instant, creating a cnisse d'antortirsement
isinking fund):
aOn the 13th of October, 1815, and the.sth of it-
gust, 1818, I ordered the arrangements which 1 j
to be suitable, to establish on a s< lid basis the ci edit (,f
the State, and give security to the•creditors. I pro-
posed to accothplish these important ends by assigning
to the establishment of public credit considerable funds,
to be administered by the astatriishment itself, to which
I destined them, that they might not in any case 'be ap-
plied to other purposes. This precaution, which served,
and had already been successfully employed by my
august father, had the inconvenience of rendering the .
administration of these funds very intricate and expen-
sive, so that the net preduce was insufficient to support
credit with the promptitude corresponding to my wishes
and the wants of thy people.
" The evil was however known, and I was'consitler-
ing of applying the remedy,- When my. measutes were
suddenly impeded by the unhappy events which de-
prived me of the exercise of my sovereiga:y; and in.
volved in the general confusion the fate of all the public
establishments.

Reinstated in the enroyenent of ,the rilits of my
crown, my attention has been fixed on the deplorable
situation of a multitude of capitalists, reduced to dis•
tress or to indigence by the t?tal depreciation of the
funds in which their fot tunes consisted. Convinced of
the necessity of correcting a stateof things which op
poses continual and invincible obstacles to the creation
and increase of the credit of the State ; convinced that
if to meet the current wants of the Government it is pro-
per to contract a Loan, it is indispensable that there
should be an establishment Which shall periodically pay
the interest, and repay the principal, also, .at itated
pet iods taught by constant experience to renounce the
hope of seeing the institution called ' of public credit'
suffice to obtain those advantages, and adopting the ad-
vice of my Council of M,inisters, I have tesolved to ob•
tain.them by other means. In consequence I have re-
solved as•follows, &c."
Arnonf the numerous Articles of this Decree, were-
mark the following •
" An annual sum of 80 millions of reals shall be assigned to the
cam. d'amortisseinent (Sinking Fund).
" It shall answer Tor the payment of the nets oVigattons,-which,
under present circurnstances, the Treasury may contract, to meet
the current wants of the Government.
" The* establishment called 4 of public credit' is suppressed."
The second Article, creating a Committee of Liqui-
dation, is conceived in the following terms :
The functions of this Committee consist in verifying and liqui-
dating all the debts of the' State, proceeding either from capitals, or
the interest of those capitals, or from arrears of pay and pensions. pro-
vided that they are founded on titles anterior to the 7lb Match, 1820."
Art.s bbliges all the cteditms of the State recognized
by Art. 2 to present the, papers, authenticating their
claims; in the time of 90 digs.
Those claims shall be inscribed in the Gteat Book
opened for this purpose; but after the expiration of the
abovementioned time, none shall be adn.itted to with-
draw (adqis a ildirer) his insciiption.• -
The Royal Vales ate not included in the above
rangement. They will not be admitted till the question
lof their renewal has been resolved. In Article 14, the
King reserves to himself the right of determining the
uniform mode of the titles which are to tepresent the
public delit; when the result uf the liquidation shall
have shewn its extent. . .

man now proposed had been educated for the Bar at asconsiderable
expense, and Was well qualified to discharge .the tholes which had
devolved on I.im. • •
. The learl of LIVERPOOL, in seconding the motion made by
the Noble and !earned Lord, expressed his approbation of the
conduct of Mr. Birckdoring• the period he had tilled the office ca.
a Deputy Clerk in that House. It was particularly when in Com-
mittees, and when sitting On business of urgency out of the House,.
that their Lordships must have observed the contluct ut Mr. Birch,
who had turned•his attention se deeply to the forms of the House.
He should, however, on an early day move for a, Committee to
consider of future regulations with regard to those offices at the
table of the House.
