without having yet taken any steps to supply the
deficiency which was known to have existed, at
least for the last six weeks. That he (Mr. Whit.
bread) was proposed as one of the Committee, he
unquestionably esteemed an honour. if appointed, ,
he should endeavour to discharge the duty entrusted It
to him conscientiously ; or if a more proper inaaV '
should be proposed in his room, he should submit
with all deference to the opinion of the House.
The motion, that a -Committee be appointed to
examine the Physicians, &c. was then agreed to ;
as was also a subsequent motion, that the Committee

The Gentlemen whose names had been mentioned
by the Chancellor of the Exchequer were then

The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER
observed, that it was desirable to insuie as full an
attendance as possible at the approaching important
discussion. He thought there was reason to expect
that the Report of the Committee would be deliver.
ed on Monday. Of course it must be printed. It
was, therefore, his intention to propose Wednes.
day as the day on which,the House should take the'
Report into consideration. To that day, there.
fore, he would move that tbo call of the Houk be'
postponed.
- It was consequently ordered that the House
should be called over on Weduesday next.—Ad.
