His ladies also bravely faced the storm, and went through the whole show, very wuch to the gratifi- cation of two ladies aud several women, who accompa- nied them, After the Fair there was a dinner, with his excellency for a guest, at which a great deal of toadyism was dis- played, with very poor accommodations for the quests of low degree, Concerning the want of courtesy shown the preas, and other matters of complaint, you will have seen full acvounts in the Canada papers. | had not the honor of attending the dianer, and cannot give you any thing from my own observation; but undorstand it wo & very sorry affair, aod very uncomfortable, which is the more to be wondered at, considering the paias Jobn Bull takes to do sli things properly when any eating is to be done, or a dinner in the question, After the Fair Mr Elgin went to the Falls, and I took & trip through the country west of Hamilton; aud a endid country it ir,andno mistake.

(Cheers ) Mr. J. Duncan then rose to explain the principles upon which the League was founded. Money must not be confounded with currency; the former was dis- tinguished by its being legal tender, and it ought to be issued only by the Crown. The issue ought to be limited to the annual amount of taxation. The Queen ought not to demand texes in any other form than in British duce; auciently they were paid in kind, and wher leory I. required them to be pald in money, ‘he did not call for a foreign metal, but frsued Exchequer tallies or sticks, which were legal tender for taxes and for debts Hear, hear) The League confined itself to proposing mila legal tender money, or taxation mon: currency. it held that, as the subject had aright to transact direct bat without tho intervention of the Crown, 69 had he a right to use any instrument Be pleased to oarry it on; if public opinion should in- cline to decide that all private bankers ehould give security to the Government, either in the shape of land or consols, and that their notes shall bear a Govern- ment stamp in order to certify their g-nuineness, the members of the League would not objrct to t!

(Hexr, hear) The property classes, however, not only failed to redeem the debt at the close of the war, but abolished the pro- penty tax because it was a war tax—the war debt re- maining As to subsequent purchasers in the funds. whoever purchased the securities of an indebted govern- ment clothed himself with the Hubilities of that govern. ment (hear); every one was liable for his share of this public debt, and if it would take 10 per cent on property to pay It, the nominal proprietor of £100 was only a pro- prietor of £90, because he owed £10 tothe State (Hear, hear) Supposing this paper money were depreciated, it would only be depreciated to the amount of national in- debtedness (Hear, hear.) Mr. Huskisson’s statement bout depreciation during the war was erroneous. The bank-note was said to be depreciated after the suspen- sion of canh payments, because instead of a bank note and a sbilling, it required a bank-note and eight snil- lings to buy a gvines; but the statement should be, that graivus of gold, that commodity having risen in price, as wheat, fron, indigo, ke, also had, This was simply the appreciation of the commodity ~gold; not the depre- ciation of the paper-note, (Hear) bank-notes were iseued in excess. Why, when govern- ment wanted money they went to the bank, and depo- sited exchequer bills, and the bank holding these large notes issued ita small notes, but never to greater ex- tent than {t held exchequer bills, The average amount of unfunded debt. from 1791 to 1797, was £13,000 000; 1793 to 1804, £23 000,000; 1805 to 1811, £37,000,000; 1812 to 1818, £50,000,000; but the bank-note circulation io thore periods was only £11 000 000, £15,000 000, £19,000,- 000, and £26,000 000, (Hear, hear) But, there was another moge of showing that there was no depreciation trom the cause assigned The average amount of annu- al taxation ia 1784 to 1790, war £14 000.000; 1791 to 1797, £19.000,000 ; 1795 to 1804, £80 000.000 ; "1805 to 1811, £47,000,.000 ; 1812 to 1818, £63000000. But, the bank-uote circulation in those periods was only £3 000.000, £11.00 000, £15 000,000, £19,000,000, and £26~ 000,000. (Hear, hear.) Nay, the bank not only did not over-trad-; it did all it could compel the govern- ment to practice a rigid economy, and the directors told Lord Liverpool on the 6th of July, 1914, that they could not grant any further advances, and expeoted such ar- rangementa to be made as should eff-ct a very consider- able reduction of the existing advances. The League would deliver the government from 0 disgraceful a p tion, and from such monstrous propositions as that of stopping all the railway works, and thus throwing 2.100, 000 persons upon the poor-rates, and all because there was not gold enough in the country. People seemed to think we could do nothing without gold. Why, Edin- burgh, Glaegov, and Aberdeen were built with paper; tha Clyde was rendered navigable by paper.
