THE STATESMAN.

LONDON:

SATURDA Y, MAY 15, 11119.

The itoperiass in insperio is elucidated is a most
extraordinary manner at this instant, by the views
and situation of the C ()venison of the Bank and the
Citancw.oe of the Excitteueit. IVhile the former
is using his precepts to the wealthy, or in other
and perhaps more peeper torso, gred mercantile men
in the City, to oppose the principles end recnalmen.

latter is as tensest that his friends every where shoeld
be apprised that be may stand io seed of their coon.

necessarily involve measures not very congenial to
the interests of the Governor and Directors of the
Chartered Company •ta question. Notices, ie the
nature of hand.bills, ~ere peeved from one to
another yesterday doting 'Change house, signifying
that a Meeting woeld he sssss ned to-day at the City
of London Tavern, for the perpose of addressing or
petitioaing Parliament not to be swayed by the ar-
guments nr sentiments contaiaed la the Reports.—
People will now be ready to exclaim, " is it come to
this ?"—Orr Readers will do us the jostle. to say
that we foretold as much ; and we now add, without
pretending to the gift of prophecy, that the wisest.
derstaading will ant be coufiaed to the Bank of Eng-
land and Minister of Finance, bet will extend from
the former to all the cavalry. The People will no
longer pet up with the insult after the injury. What
must they think of this avaricious Company petting
prating advocates into the House of Commons to de.
cries bosh that Horse and the Public? affirming
that the Bank wished for nothing so ardently as to
be allowed to pay in specie. This was while the Di.
rectors of that Company relied on being able to put
such words as they pleased into the mouth of their

at her will and pleasant. it won't do any longer.—
He is met satisfied with her carving for him. He
will cat out a slice as he pleases. Mr. V %MUMS'?
was always looked open as a plait' honest Gentleman,
sod by accident had the honour of place thrust apes
him; something in the same way as it happened
many years ego to Sir Cermet, afterwa ds Lord
I.IfTTILTON• In talents for the Wks of Chancel-
lor of the Escherpier there was not a penny to
choose between them. Sir Gramm, like his suc-
cessor, referred every thing to others; bat made the
neces.ary speeches ; and in that department he often,
as was the case in his speech on the nem Calendar,
end therefore connected with the motion of the
pleoets, was observed to be in the dards,. But se
little adroit was he es a national Avestan, that he
could make no est insole of his own expenses, nor recites
how much money he should want to carry bins, in
his cumbrous coach and six dock-tail horses, to
Higley Park and back again: bet was often left
without a guinea at as inn, and obliged to borrow
money there or on the road. He was, nevertheless,
regarded, like Mr. VANSITTART, as SO honest man.
He had, however, a talent which made Mr. Caorta's
fortene, for be could write poetry ; whereas the de-
scendant of the Dutchman can neither Hama nor
reason, and ell his calculations and accounts are
really Flemish.
The Right lioalperable Member for that town,
however, where so many of his ancestors have landed,
sad where, if things do not mend, under his or
some other person's hinds, he will be likely to take
shipping again, ere Time has thinned his flowing hairs,
most come to close quarters with the great Leviathan
of the City. The conflict can no longer be pet off.
The CHAISCIILLOa has been compered to a large
Dutch plaice, we consi.ier km a softer fish than that,
a well-fed turbot for inviance, and he most expect
to he beset by all the sharks of the alley. Now,
though It hut little toncernvthe Public at large which
of those fish devour their adveneres or whether they
ore all thrown on the shore together, and are seen
