Tho Speculative Movement ofthe English government
From the Liverpool Mail, Dec. a.
The opening of Parliament, as far as concerns the
credit of the government and the interests Of the people
has not been proptious. Her Majestys ministers treat
the victims OF fatal policy long pursued under specious
dguises false returns, and fallacious arguments with
calm indifference, If not with scornfu and unjust ebuke
What they think, and others think, of the ministers
themselves as the principal authors of the calamity,
shall not here attempt to conjecture 1t is clear, how

They tell that the gold is coming back to the Bank OF
England and it has been for the last fortnight, and

But whence is it coming from, and under what circum-
stances? From parties in Germany Prussia, Russia, and
America order to meet the bills which they drew upon
the corn they exported to England, and which bills
dishonored in this country. The corn held in England
on these foreign accounts is not worth ten shlngs
