notes, and would present them to the Mother Banks
to be escheoged for specie. l• the Western country,

. Mr. FAYaLt. said the present was en unfair attempt
to get rid of the question. The choice of the day Inc
discussion was not that of the Requisitionists, bot of
the Lord Mayor himself.—(l/ear!)—The avocations
of his Lordship, ha was assured, were so various for
the ►emaising days of the week, that he could fie no

collect, that the Spanish Enlistment Bill, against
