Mr. Coat Y moved the Order of the Day for the fecond reading
of the Bank of Ireland Reftriaion Bill.
Lord A. Hobert:row could not conceive it coosftent with the

be burtbened with filch immoderate !rues of paper currency for fo
lone a period as that appoloted for the reftridtinn on the Bank of
England, namrlt, till fix months after the conchifion of the war.
Is was his Intenritm, therefore, to move. that a chafe be added,
limiting the period to a darter tune, and emulaing the Sank of
Ireland accountable for the amount of paper Weed, which, in his,
opining, would have a beneficial eifedl.
Me Cult a v abfencel, that in the Alt relative to the Bonk of
England, as well u In this, there were chafes enabbog the Bank
to revive the payments whenever deemed expedient, noon 'lvies
due public notice. He could not, however, avoid malting

toy, be thoughelt due to them that the [abject ilaockl not be

therefore, would operate far beyond the periqd appointed far the

light or trivial grounds, its agent to filch regulations
in the nianagemeirt of their funds and capital, as
lhould be abrOltitely neceffary to carry on their com-
mercial concerns, tinder the prefent circumßances of
the empire, without material difadvantag-: for it
was the province of the EaR India Company, even
under all the vicifEtiides and ditadvantages of war,
to promote the commercial profperity of the country
in the molt dill:int quarters of the globe; and this
was not to be done onlefs they were en4bled to keep
a certain qaAntity of their funds afloat, and prevent
them from returning back to theiroreafury. whereby
their capital would be molt materially diminilhed,
and their means of trade confequently cramped.—
This could only be effeEted by enabling them Co to
regulate their rates of interell, as to maintain that
refpeßability to their bonds, at market, which would
prevent a decided preference of other funds, to the
depreciation of :heirs. The Honourable Member
had raid, that the bonds of the Company flood in rici
need of fuel' aid, for that they at prefent enjoyed in
advantage at market over Etcheqner Bills, on ac-
count of their interell being payable half yearly.oo
The fad, however, was otherwife ; for E;chequer
Bills were now at a premium of one (billing above
par, wh e India Bonds were at a difcount of two
'billings. The Noble Lord then went generally into
tome financial Ratements of the Company, In (up-
port of the Bill; and contended that the increafe of
interell on their bonds was nreelrAry to give them
currency abroad. He concluded by-exproffing a hope
that the Houfe Would not refute this indulgence to
a great trading Company, in whom the revenue and
the State were fo materially concerned.
Mr. Dear Paid a few words in reply, (importing
his former argument.
