ton Of the houfe.
Your committee have thus .fubmitted
to the wifdom Of the houfe thofe meafnres
fhich appeared to them to claim the moR
immediate attention with a view to relief,
the have upon the whole the fatisfaeaion
Of being perluaded, after a deliberate re-
view Of the deficiency in the fupply (arifng
both from. the exhauted fate of the flock
of the former harvef, and the partial fail
ure of the lat crop) compared with the
various refources which have been already
pointed out, that if the meafures Of Geo
nomy, which they have 70 Rrongly re-
commended, are generally adopted, the
faying thereby produced, together with
the extenfive fupply expected from abroad,
will be. fully fuficient to compenfate for
fuch deficiency, and to provide for the
neceffary demand Of the year.
Amongst the Iubjeas which prcfs upon
tie confederation 0 your committe, is the
fate of the law rejecting the
Of grain. It is evidently a matter, of the
greateh d~clicacy and difficulty and your
committee think they cannot better diff
charge their duty, than by taking it up in
the temper recommended to Parliament,
by that part Of His Majefy's Speech
which has been referred to them by the
HouGe.
In their further proceedings, your com
mittee will give their mott earnet atten-
ton to the difcuaion of every propoial,
which has for its Object the relief of the
prefent prelurs, or the prevention Gas
Far as pofible) ofits recurrence. and will
lubmit, from time to time, to the judg-
Hent Of the houie, whatever appears to
them mott likely 10 attain thoie defirable

ne through the voluntary
3tscntion 81 magiagates, has already pre-
vailed III many inaances ; and that where-
yer it has been adopted, its consequences
have been mott beneficial but partly
from want Of Efficient authority in the
magistrates, for this particular purpofe,
partly trcm the ME of the fubtitutes be
Ing lefs generally known than at prefent,
and from the fupply of them not being as
abundant as may now be expected, the
practice has been lefs general than the In
terea Of the country requires. Your COM
mittee, however, are aware that thefe
may not E now be indifcriminately APP
splicable % every pariih from local cir
tumRances, 1t may be at frh difficult to
procure the necelfafy articles in Efficient
quadtIty,sor il may require fome time to
introduccsth them into general ufe. Your
committee therefore do not with that a
pefemptory rule lhould be enforced. For.
this purpcfc they would recommend that
an act hould be pancd, requiring the ma
sgi1fates of each diRria within a certain
time, to take into their confederation the
circume anees Of each parifh, and at the
application Of the overfeer, or at their
own difcretion, to make an order for Civ
ing 4 certainportion of relief in articles,
to be fixed, and to direct the application
offo much Of the rates as may be necefa-
~ for providing fuch articles or if they
flalls be fatisfed that circumstances will
not then admit Of fuch articles being pro-
~vided, that they fhall fate their reaions
and report them to- fpecial feaion, to be
directed by the act to meet for that pur-
.pofe: That the magitrates attended at
fuch feGaions Aaall make~Guch order there
upon as they halI think fit, either autho-
rifng furrher. delay in the execution Of
the Ineafnfe, if they hall be fatisfed that
the circumstances juftify and require it,
or, ifnot, directing it to be enforced in
sfuch ann ashley fhall Judge expedient.
The frf advantage to be procured by
this mcafurc evidently is, that of render
ing the fupplly more equal to the nece1ary
demand; but this advantage, though the
greateft, is not the only one the labour-
tr, by receiving the proportion of relief
in fome other article than breakdown,
will receive the benefit of the .reduc-
ton Of price, which the diminifhcd con-
1umption mutt tend to produce, in pur-
chaIing cheaper what he provides out Of
his w earnings, and will be leis Deepen

three ways: 6rR, in the diminution Of the
