RESOLUTIONS.

RESOLVED, Nemine Diffentiente, by the Lords Spiritual
and Temporal, in Parliament assembled, That, in Conse-
quence of the high Price and deficient Supply of Wheat, it
is expedient to adopt such Measures as may be practicable for
diminishing the Consumption thereof, during the Continuance
of the present Pressure, and for introducing the Use of such
Articles as may conveniently be substituted in the Place
thereof.

RESOLVED, by the Lords Spiritual and Temporal, in
Parliament assembled, That the Agreement hereunto subjoined,
be engrossed, and left at the Parliament Office, in order to
be subscribed by any Lord of this House who shall think fit to
subscribe the same himself, or in his Name by any other Lord,
or by the Clerk Assistant, or by the Clerk of the Journals, or
Clerk of the Papers, who shall receive Authority from such
Lord so to do.

WE, the Undersigned, impressed with a Sense of the Evils
which may be experienced by His Majesty's Subjects, in Conse-
quence of the deficient Supply of Wheat, unless timely and
effectual Measures are taken to reduce the Consumption thereof,
within such Limits as may prevent the Pressure of actual
Scarcity
