The House' reserned, and the Message was received, which announced their Lordship' coacurreoce veleta inve• wt -Yrnveee Bids ; after which it resoived itself into ties Cominittee. Mr. Meseees deeied that the evils said to have been caused by the publication of the Report, could Lilly be traced to that source. Mr. Pee - row et stated the fluctuations of the Exchanges, and compared them with the issues of the Bank from the year 1756 to the present thee.

On the third Reesilution, which asserted that the Promissory Note was held to beequal to the current coin of the Ritalm, the Right Hon. Gino (MreCanning) observed, that this Was taking for granted a position contrary to fact, this being the very point upon which the public mind was at varl. ante. 'A man, he observed, after reading a .controversy upon any subject might say that one party was wrorg, ael anotilet right,bet it remained for the.
