THE STA TIMM CV:

but for the rednetiou forced ea his Majesty's Miele
terse as if the 5.000,0001. had arisen from their sav-
lags ? When there was so much capturing about oe
small a sum, why did wee Minister. begin a redo&
tioa earlier ? If they had made • redustio• lair
2,000,0001. at au earlier period, 41,000,0001. of Vale
might sow have bees saved to the country. The lidet.
Member for Yorkshire (Mr. Stuart Wortley) had said
that there was every symptom of the growing prop ..
rity of the country. No penes was less disposed than
he (Mr. Tierney) to say any thing that would cast a
gloom upon the situation of the country; but there
was only an improvement of 1.000.0001. is the revs-
outs. With regard to the 5,000,0001. he found that
one-half of it orese from the revenue, and the other
from **clogs, and the real question was, bow these
its millions could be best applied. There was as
herd to the Sinking Fend at compound interest. What-
ever other charge the House might cast apes them.
they would at least have no reason to complain that
he misled them. He would state the advantage of the
plan proposed by the Noble Lord. Five mib
Ness were to be applied mutually to the reduc-
tion of the national debt, and the interest aria
lag from this sum to be set apart in aid of re-
-411 dating texatios, so that in six years, deli would'
boa redeetioe of 89,000,0001. of 5 per Oita. T
woeld be the result of the Sinkleg Feed. ;tad a re
'base from the taxes to the amount of 12,000.00111?
At the termiaatloo of that period, supposes war began.
the country would have to wage it with a debt of
180,000,00 C on its bask, after thirtesa years of
pears. But bow was the Noble Lord to meet these
dific allies ?-11y an imposition of 3,200,000/. So the
'result of his project would be eventually an &ding's
eff 11,000,000 f. of taxes. This was no eneouragior
linespeet ; there was no Gentleman in the house who
iestd consider it with any other feeling than that 41
dismay. Another effect of the Noble Lord's plan
'would be (as he said) the lowering of !be interest of
mosey; but that prospect the Right Hon. Gentleman
opposite held out in his speeches four years :—he 1.141.1
them the Stocks were in a flourishing condition, andl
' that he would be able to redeem the 3 per Cents.-.-He
'lllielie the same declaration in 1818 and 1819. yet, the
liege year, proposed, as a proof of its prosperity, addi-
tives! taxes. The Hon. Member for Portarlingtos,
'than whose opinion on financial subjects none stood
r higher, held that the g l interest of money could
only be effected by the quantity of capital in the sow
try: and in this he coincided with him. Perhaps the
Sinkiag Fund might be altogether taken away to-mor•
row, from the numbers, who aro to assemble at Pa.
lace-yard.—(Hear, hear, hear!), But be should tisiaki
the Gentlemen who are to meet there was as sharp in'
discretion as the Right Hon. tient. opposite. His plea
bad been always to rain the stub; and spat soy al.t•
lusien to that subject the Hos. Geothtesan had 111 111.

gentlemen of that house make a their tenantry ot
their return. Why, that on their leaving Loaded'
stock was high,—.that it was is a loorishing
state—that was •to be their only consolation,
and that the tax os mak had bees reduced one

country was only within one shiftiest a. bushel

Whatever measures might be proposed by his Hos.
Friends, it was immediately objected that their object'
was to deals the Treasury sod destroy the public
credit ; but he strongly disclaimed fur hie Nos. Friends'
and himself any each motive. No osiewas more anxi-
ous than he to uphold the public faith end pnblic
credit. The moment hie Hos. Friends suggested any
measure, it was objected that it was something that
could sot bear the light, bat each imputations were

to what bad fallen from the Right Hon. Othtleasan
who bad just sat down with regard to deviating from
the system laid down by Mr. Pitt. He (tbe Chancellor)
coatended, that if they had sot deviated from that
system, the country *veld now have an additional
tax of 17 millions, aid if the cosarry was already

As to the general loostioe at issue, be admitted that
the boom were booed to afford all possible relief to the
country; but, if they consoled to adopt • the pripsi•
don of the Noble Lord, they would destroy that pub-
lic credit by masa of which so much bad boon
achieved in Europe. That step would most effectually
lower the glory of the country. The Sinking Pond

Mr. HUME moved for an Account of the number of

Mr. HUME said be bed nn other account to move
for. He thought there could not be. any objection to
hie motion; Its object was to ascertain at one view the
member or barracks, their establishments, how
occupied, he.; sliatieguishing those for infantry from
those intended for artillery. There was much 'usage-
seat respecting the several barracks: for iestaece,
when there were two barracks, although the one bar-
rack might answer all the purposes required, 'build •
-there be troops of each sort, each" barrack was &Cer
pied; Was affording the pretext of keeping' up ups-
rate establishisents of Barrack Master*, he. There
were many instances where this was the cue, when
sae establishment would meet the want. of the situ-
salon. He cot:eluded with moving forgo Account of all
borsake, dietlegoishing whether built of stead or

Pb.. these papers were returned, he inteeded to sive

well merited the inquiring attention of the house.
Mr. R. WARD said, that %vestment had a plea in

by the Hon. Member would be removed. There was
suer any difficulty with respect to the infantry and
