=W YORK HERALD. N New York, Sunday, November 6, 1842. ‘The Great Miller Camp Mecting at Newark —Father Miller's Sermon, Newark, Nov. 5th, 1842. The excitement is gradually but surely increasing in this place in relation to the Second Advent. { sent you word yesterday that Father Miller, as he is called, had arrived, and this afternoon he deli- vered his first sermon Those who think that one of these Millerite meet. ings resembles a Methodist Camp Meeting are greatly mistaken ; there is much more order, deco- rnm, and argument in these Miller meetings. Up to the present time there has not been a disorderly person upon the ground ; all has been quiet and de- cerous. Whata day or an hour may bring forth it is impossible to say. For to-morrow (Sunday) is ex- pected to be a great day here. As your space is immensely valuable, and as I have already described this spot fully, I will just give youthe outline of this day’s proceedings and Mr. Miller’s sermon. There wasthe ordinary prayer meeting in the morning, then Mr. Litch delivered a lecture show- ing, as he said, conclusively, that the end of the world would be in 1843. After this, the brethren adjourned to what Brown in the ‘* New Wife and Old Umbrella” called “a shilling a head arrange- ment,” and a very good arrangement it was for a hungry man. Atl o’clock a prayer meeting was held; here were seen three or four brethren and in the/straw, that is, all kneeling on it, except one who sat like a tailor a posteriori. Some very moderate and sensible remarks were offered up, be- tween the following two hymns, which were sung by three as lovely Millerite women as ever the sun shone upon. Hymx 7— Tue Prawn Tauri.

After this, a big bell was rung for five minutes, and people came flocking in to hear Father Mil- ler’s sermon, Mr. Litch made a few remarks, ex- planatory of his morning lecture, and Mr. Miller rose and delivered a sermon from the 26th ot Leviti- cus, verses 27th and 28:n. “‘And if ye will not for all this hearken unto me, but walk contrary unto me ; then I will walk contrary unto you also in fury; and I, even I will chastise you seven times for your sins * This, he said,was a prophecy of God’s hrough Moses, and was repeated Bar times in the Bible as a warning to his people. From the time of the car- Tying away captive into get aa all the churches and people had gone out of the wey. they had never been free from the power of the kingdoms of this world; and to this hour the curse of the text is inflicted on the people of God, but itis nearly finish- ed; next year it ends. “‘Chastise you seven times.” We must show what is meant byseven times. And if we can then show by the Bible when these seven times began, we can easily see when they will end. We can easily show that these seven times are now about accomplished. One of the punishments was “And ye shall eat the flesh of your sons, and the flesh of your daughters shall ye eat.” And in the siege of Jerusalem, the father eat his daughter’s flesh and the mother ate of her son’s body. ‘And I will de- s your high places, and cut down your images, and cast your carcases upon the carcases of your idols, and my eoul shall abhor you. Aud: I will make your cities waste, and bring your sanctuaries unto desolation, and 1 will not smell the savour of your sweet odours. And I will bring the land into desolation; and your enemies which dwell therein shall be astonished at it.” All this has been accomplished, the cities laid waste, the land made desolate, and even their enemies are astonished at the continuation of the punishment. The Jews are not delivered yet, are they? No, nor they never willbe delivered as carnal Jews. Well, now, what does seven times mean. Looking at the proj hetic numbers, and at the fulfilment of those prophecies that have already come to pass, we knew that the Scripture word “time” means a period of 360 years, (the number of degrees in a circle,) or 360 revolu- tions of the earth round the Sun. Well, we also know by the same rule that the “‘ mes, time, and half a ume of Daniel were thus:— Years. Times, is twice 360, + 720 Time, “ + 360 Half atime, 180 r 1260, Now let us double this for seven times:— years, 7 times, 2520 years. Now, then, we thus have the term that God meant to punish his people in, when he said, “1 will chas- tise you 7 times. This is as clear as crystal of glass. Now then, if we can find out when this punishment began, we can easily find out when it will end, and thatend was to be the ingathering of the Lord’s people, (for all believers, maine Jew or Gentile, are the Lord's people,) and the final destruction of all things. He says:—- And I will scatter you among the heathen, and will draw out a sword after you: and your land shall be desolate aud your cities waste.” ell, they are still scattered, and the sword is the ‘civil power of all countries which is drawn against them to this day; therefore, the seven times is not up yet. Again:—* Then shall the land enjoy her sabbaths, as long as it lieth desolate, and ye be in your enemies’ land; even then shall the land rest and enjoy her sabbaths. As long as it lieth desolate it shall rest; because it did not rest in your sabbaths, when ye dwelt upon it” Well, the land has enjoyed her sabbaths, and her cities have been desolate 7 times, that is, '2520 years. Again :—‘‘And upon them that are left alive of youl will send a faintness into their hearts in the lands of their enemies ; and the sound ot a sha- ken leaf shall chase them; and they shall flee, as fleeing from a sword ; and they shall fall when none pursueth.” All this is true. None can deny it. It as all come to pass. The Jews typified the whole rege of God; and they were punished seven times. he Jews are not the people of God, because they are sons of Abraham after the flesh. How do we go to heaven? By cireamecision! (Here several of the ladies tittered and blushed, and two or three went out.) I mean the circumcision of the spirit. I don’t want to go to a heaven where there are twenty or thirty sects, all quarrelling, as here. (Laughter.) Have the children of God been scatter- ed since Christ’s time? No! What is meant? Look at 12th Daniel, 7th verse:——“ And | heard the man clothed in linen, which was upon the waters of the river, when he held up his night hand and his left hand unto heaven, and swear by him that liveth for ever that it shall be for a time, times, and a half; and when he shall have accomplished to scatter the power of the holy people, all these things shall be finished.” How long are these holy people, then to be, scattered and punished? We shell see. Father Miller thinks that all the people of God are of the same stock since the days of Abel. We are all bora of the same mother, and all begot by the same father. [More laughter, more blushing, and more ladies going out.] 1 shall never thanl God enue that { was born ina day of Bibles, which teaches me that next year he is coming on earth to release my soul from all transitory troubles {ories of “Amen! come Lord!”) Now to the point! The people of God are the same in all ages. Very well, then we want to know how long they are to suffer. Look at Deuteronomy, 15th chapter, Ist verse, “At the end of every seven years thou shalt make a release.” Aguin at the 34th of Jere- miah, Ith verse, ‘At the end of seven years let ye go every man his brother, an Hebrew, which hath been sold unto thee; and when he hath served thee six years, thou shalt let him go free from thee; but your fathers hearkened not unto me, neither in: ‘ clined theirear.” The seven years are but a type. See 2d of Colossians, 16th and 17th verses, ‘‘ Let no man, therefore, judge you in meat, or indrink, or in respect of an hoipday, or of the new moon, or of the Sabbath days; which are a shadow of things to come; but the body is of Christ.” Well, now, my dear sisters, you have to be delivered [laughter.] at the end of every seven years. You see that. (Great laughter, and several ladies went out.) That 1s, whilst you are in the flesh. But when God de- livers you, he will deliver you once for all. Now the type may mean a delivery every seven years; but Christ, the great anti-type, means a delivery once for all. Then rejoice, my sisters, at the pros- pect!’ Now the great point is to show when the captivit y began. Fort was to close in 2,520 years. Well, the rule is that it began when the people of God were carried captive to the enemy’s land. That was when they were taken out of their own land and seattared. When was that? ‘The key is in Jeremiah, chap.15,“*Then said the Lord unto me, though Moses and Samuel stood before me, yet my mind could not be toward this people : cast ‘them out of my sight, and let them go forth. And it shall come to pass, if they say unto thee, Whither shall we go forth ? i then thou shalt tell them, Thus saith the Lord: { Such as are for death, to death ; and such as are for the sword, to the sword; and such as are for the famine, to the famine ; and such as are for the cap- tivity, to the captivity. And I will appoint over them four kinds, saith the Lord ; the sword to slay, and the dogs to tear, and the fowls of heaven, an the beasts of the earth, to devour and destroy. And I will cause them to be removed into all kingdoms of the earth, because of Manasseh the son of Hezekiah, king ot Judah, for that which he didin Jerusalem.” You see there were four ways to be punished, and they were punished for a period of seven times. And here it was because of what Manasseh had done, Here, then, we have the be- ginning-of the punishment under the reign of Ma- nasseh. When wasit to be completed? At the end of seven times, or 2520 years. These were to be seven prophetic years—beginning, as we see, in 2d Chronicles, 33d chap., 9th verse :—“ So Manasseh made Judah and the inhabitants of Jerusalem to err, and to do worse than the heathen, whom the Lord had destroyed before the children of Israel.” And the Lord” spake to Manasseh and to his people: but they would not hearken. Where- fore the Lord brought upon them the captains of the host of the king of Assyria, which took Manas- seh among the thorns, and bound him with fetters, and carried him to Babylon.” And the 12th of Desist ers “* When he shall have accomplished to scatter, all things shall be finished.” Thus, then, we get at the great point. Look at all scripture chronologists, and you'll find that when Manasseh was carried away to Babylon it was 677, B.C. The same year the ten tribes were carried away. Isaiah says, 7th chapter, 8th verse, that within three score and ten years, shell Ephraim be broken that it be not apeople. This was 742 years before Christ. So down, then, 65 years, and you come exactly to 677 years before Christ, the very time that Ephraim was broken and carried captive to Babylon. Then be- gan Daniel’s fourth beast. Two thousand years the world was under the Patriarch rule; 2000 under the Baby loniahy and 2000since; making 6000 years that the Devil’s Congress was to be held upen earth and Beelzebub at the head of it as prince. In 677, B. C., then Manasseh, was carried away, and the punish- ment begun. Te was to last 7 times or 7 prophetic years—thus:— 360, 7 , 2520 years Then Christ was to come and set the children free. Now, then, let us calculate— Total time of punishment, 2620 years Captivity or punishment begun 677 B.C. The end of the punishment, 1843 A. D Or thus :— Years before Christ, 677 Years after Christ, 1848 Yearsof punishment, or the 7 times, 2520 This is the time—the day and date—exact! And it is oa of God’s, and I believe it. I have no confidence in man, but [ believe God. I believe then the end of the seven times, or seven prophetic will come next year. (Cries of “Amen! Come, Lord!") I have enjoyed this belief twenty-four years; and if it don’t come—why, then, I’ll have to give it up—that’s all. (Laughter) But if it does, some of you will look uncommon foolish. In my soul I don’t believe God will disobey this law, which he has commanded us to obey. Daughters of Zion, next year you will go free. Let ’em cull us Millerites if they please. (Cries of ‘‘ Amen.” Let’em shout 1843in our ears. (Cries of “ Amen,” “Do it.”) In that great day there will be no better men than Millerites. (Glory.) Whatdo you think of the seven times now, my brethren? (Glory.)— Three and a half times was the Mystie Babylon, and three and a half times more is the end ot the world. (Cries of “Amen, God, amen!”) The se- ven times will come next year. (Cries of “Oh! Amen. Glory! Amen.) The world has told lies enough of us; but I thank God for it, for it has kept me humble, No thanks to them, though. But next year all liars, will be dead, all the sons of the devil, and there will be an end to all the lying, foolish stories put forth against us by minis- ters For the devil and all his children will be in hell, and there will be no toe te wag histongne and tell lies Sgpinat us there. ties of “tAmen, Lord, Amen, Glory!) There’ll_be no whore-monger there. (Cries of “Amen, Glory!) No adulterer there! (Amen.) No drunkard there. (Glory.) No one to defame a brother or defile a sister there. (Shouts of “Glory, glory, amen, amen, come Lord, come at once.”) I’m now 61 years old, and I shall live one or two years longer; therefore, I should be foolish to fix a time for the end of the world, which fell within my life time, if it was n’t true and could be proved by the bible. _i’m not in- sane. (One scamp here cried out ‘ You act like it.”) I'm no fool. (The same scamp shouted “Your a d—d fool.” But he was soon silenced and and put out.) Then go home, and see if there’s an’ thing in this; and don’t quarrel with old Father Mil- ler for having fixed a time, and thus bring damnation fn yew own heads, (Cries of ‘* Amen, Glory, Hal- leluiah.””) _One young man then rose and said: Thi did not see to this point “ you will be all damned as sure as there isa @od in Heaven, a Devil in Hell, or blood in your veins.” : The meeting then concluded with a hymn and prayers. if they Sreamsuiep Great Western.—This steamship is now out fourteen days,with three days later intel- ligence and upwards of one hundred passengers.

Fanny Exssver 1x Virnna.—We find the follow- ing letter in the Commercial Advertiser of last eve- ning, said to be translated from a French Paper of obscure circulation in this city, called “ Courier des Etats Unis. The ‘‘ Commercial” considers it a puff, written by Fanny’s secretary, the same personage who was with her in this country. We doubt this. That personage is in Paris. However, it is a very curious letter, and probably describes the affair ac- curately :— “ Viewna, ber 30, 1842. “ Mademoiselle Fanny Elssler left our city yenerday, on her return to Berlin. After having danced twice for the benefit of charitable institutions—being honored by the presence of the Emperor and Empress—she gave a third performance, at the personal request of the latter, at the theatre in the Palace of Sch@enbrunn, in honor of their ImperialHighnesses the Duke and Duchess of Leuch- tenberg, and before not only all the members of the Im) rial Family, but also the grend dignitaries of the empire. As etiquette forbids all marks of approbation at sueh a solemnity (sie! !) the illustrious spectators, interdicted from testifying within the theatre their admiration and delight, took their revenge at the close of the perform- ance. They ordered their coachman to draw up in a double rank along the road from Schwenbrunn to Vienna, and as the grand artiste (sic again) passed slong in the court carriage that had tin laced at her disposal, the men made the welkin ring with shouts of ‘bravo, and long live Elisler,’ while the ladies waved their handkerchiefs in the air. A great number of young men sprang to the carriage in which the Elssier was seated, intending to cut the traces and draw it them- bese ey = forbidden to do so by the agents of 5 irew, shouting ‘ = re he ory sen vier ing ‘ Long live Elssler—long “The evening before her departure de iselle Elssler received an autograph latter | from the ‘Tusprose, with-@ costly diadem of topazes, adorned with an antique cameo.” Tue Dovew.—The Grand Jury of Burlington coun- ty, N.

Mr. Suapson, or roe Park THeatee.—Tue Sa- crep Drama.—Tue Morais or tHe Stace.—We publish the annexed article on the recent movement of Mr. Simpson, of the Park Theatre, in relation to morals and the third tier, as a specimen of the feel- ing, good taste, and justice of the “rigidly right- eous” of this day and generation: {t ought to be observed, however, that the very persons who make the severest objections to the third tier, never visit the theatre, ‘and hardly know what it is. All persons are admitted into a church provided they behave with decency—yet the exclu- sion might be urged with far more propriety on a holy church, than on a sinful playhouse. If, how- ever, the moral and pious people wish realiy to pu- ; rity the theatre, and make it fit for their reception, they can easily do so. Let them propose an ar- rangement with Mr. Simpson, to fill the third tier with themselves and their friends, and we have no doubt the manager will agrce to it. By this means, they can effectually abolish the system at once and forever.

You have had for a long period the control of the Park Theatre ; under your charge it has been one of the principal sources of amusement of this large metropolis ; and upon you has devolved a portion of the responsibility of its effects. What have you done, sir, during this time to purify the theatre—to elevate the stage 2 And by means of it to improve the morals of the Upgpereg 1 You have carried the star system—that curse of the art—to its great- est height ; you have sacrificed a pure taste—the ef- fects of a perfect whole, to the meretricious personal excitement of some single performer, and have broken up completely the school for the profession. You have introduced, sir, at this theatre the seduc- tive practice of ballet dancing—that fashionable vice of all worn out countries; and by means of it have pandered to the most depraved passions. Under your management it has reached a maturity and a perfection of sensuality never before known in this country. By these means you have vitiated the taste of the public. By presenting to it lascivious fruit, which gave it a false and dise: energy, you have suffered the effects of the reaction, in the sickly feeble support you have of late received. You have continued the practice of admitting ‘ abandoned women; you have Cy oegerd a tier and a saloon for their accommodation ; you have made the theatre a public “change” to carry on their commerce! In short, sir, the stage has, under your charge, with occasional exceptions, degene- rated in talent, strength and purity. Bat, sir, the public was much gratified by the an- nouncement that you had determined to cut off this last excresence. “The friends of the drama con- gratulated themselves that you were about to make some atonement for your managerial errors: that you were about to break the accursed chain of cus- tom, and purify the temple. They hailed the an- nouncement as the first step towards regeneratin thestage. Upon examination, however, they foun that this reform was to last only “* during the per formance of the sacred drama.” This they thought wasan errorin phraseology ; they could not believe that the reform was intended only for a particular period, but for all future time. They visited the theatre ; they found it well and respectably attend- ed. It looked like the palmy days. You, how- ever, soon undeceived them. On the fourth night after your announcement the doors were thrown open’ to the odious traffic! Three short nights ‘and. your managerial virtue melted like wax in the fire. What excuse, sir, can you give? Your theatre was well patronised, and ‘by those in point of character whom a manager should feel proud to have within his walls, You perhaps beheld the first circle empty and wish- ed it filled. You opened it to its old inmates, for- getting how much was added to the other parts of the house by theirabscene. You forget our Own substantial interest—your promise an pledge—and sold your great advantage, your moral strength, for less than a mess of pottage! Are you, sir, asa Sle Sa) free from the vice of growing age—ava- rice Let us hope that in spite of this faltering, that you will take new courage, and commence again your reform with the determination to carry it through ‘The public will be willing to think thau you heve been influenced against your better judgement by those who have interested motives, and by your professional brethren, who, lacking the larger wis- dom, have ba io you against their own true interest to continue this abominable practice. However, sir, of this be sure, that whether you abolish it at Present or not, the time is not far distant when it will be done, with or without your consent. There are influences, powerful and Sap at 10" work to abate this nuisance—embracing all who @ pure stage and those who love not any; all who wish to stem the torrent of vice which has reached such a fearful pitch in this city, and all who are friends of public morality. Depend upon it, sir, these influences will accom- plish their object, even though in consequence, the establishment should lose its present manager. ‘These remarks are addressed to you with no ill will or personal feeling, but by one who seeks the highest good of the stage, and as a necessary con- sequence, your own. ‘ I remain, Your obedient servant, Hamtuton.

Arornen Pusiic Ronsxxy.—James H. Ward, the May or’s recent first marshal, was arrested yesterday, on a charge of robbing the public Treasury of this State of some $2,500, during the administration of Dr. Hart as health commissioner, about three years since, and while in the performance of certain duties entrusted to his charge. Dr. Hart, whose duty it was to receive the Hos. pital money for the State, paid by Captains of vessels arriving at this port, made an arrangement with Ward, to receive the Hospital money, for which he allowed him one and aquarter per cent, he (Hart) receiving two and ahalffor this performance of the duty. This money is in part appropriated by the board of health commission- ers te the Sailors’ Snug Harbor, on Staten Island, while the remainder goes into the State Treasury. Dr. Hart is not implicated in this transaction, Ward soon com: menced his career of dishonesty as follows:—A cap- tain would present himself to pay the Hospital mo- ney on, for example, 17 cabin passengers and 119 steerage, which Ward would receive and receipt for. He would then enter upon his books returns for 7 cabin and 60, or sometimes not more than 30 steerage, and pocket the ba- lance of about $100. This return would be made to Dr. Hart, who not suspecting Ward of dishonesty, nor sup- Posing that he would make a less return, as his commis- sions would be decreased, allowed him to continue in the Teceipt of the moneys until he was removed from office. The recent developments relative to John Ahern, the Mayor's clerk, led to suspicion, and upon obtaining the recelpts given by Ward to the captains of the vessels that arrive at this port, and contrasting them with his own books, the sums received and aceounted for being so en- tirely at variance, the defalestion er public robbery was made as glaring as the noon day sun— ‘The amount thus taken is,unknown—it may extend to $10,000—and may not be over $5,000, but be it more or less, it certainly shows that the change of the corporation has been the means of exposing rascalities that would have continued to exist as long as such scoundrels as Tom Lloyd, John Ahern or James H. Ward were kept in pub- lic office. The investigation not being concluded last eve. ning, Ward was committed to prison, where all robbers of the public treasure should be kept, until their defelca- tions were made good out of the property they had amas Tue Sranrans and the friends of Michael Walsh assem- bled at Dunn’s Sixth Ward Hotel, last evening, to express their opinion relative to the recent acts of the Democratic party, at Tammany Hall.

With respect to the probability of a peace, we can only ebserve that the interest of every party calls for it, but that the State of the negotiations when the last advices left France, makes the event not a little doubt- One thing, however, may be inferred with tolerable certainty, which is that whether there is peace or war, New York will ere long be evacuated.

American Scutrrors.—The “Post” of last eve- ning has the following letter from Rome :— Ross, July 21, 1842. The Orpheus of Crawford, as you have doubtless heard, hasbeen purchased by the Boston Atheneum. And now that Iam touching upon sculpture, I may as well add that the bas relief you all clubbed to order, will go out by the first vossel bound to Boston. Since you left this place, Crawford's study has changed its aspect. The Orpheus e whole, as advan- is roughed out a beautiful block of spotless marble. The little ire you saw him at work upon, has just e ‘home; but the model remains,and beside it stand two size larger, and far superior in point of invention and execution. One isa Cupid, contemplating a butterfly. The other is a frolicksome little fellow, who is dancing to the sound of music he draws from his cymbals. There are no new busts, but an ideal head, which you will see in the next New York exhibition. It has already been sent. The bas reliefs are eee spring leaves, and he has at last brought himself down to a method of compesition which enables him to calculate and study his t thar roughly before he touches the clay. But the Greatert step of al, is his new group, Ganymede receiving from Hebe the cup and vase of nectar. This Subject has often been treated, but never from the point hehas chosen. Every other artist seems to have lost sight of the feeling of sorrow with which Hebe must have given up to her successor the insi fher dignity. Crawford has made this the subject of his group, and the sentiment gives room, as you can readily suppose, to a beautiful con: trast between the deep settled grief of the goddess, andthe mixed feel of sorrow and surprise that saddens the face of the youthful Ganymede. Crawford intends to have it engraved in outline, together with several others of his latest compositions, and you will then be able te form a better idea of it than I Poni you by description. Thorwaldson is here, hard at work, as usual. He talks of returning to Denmark, but 1 doubt it. Of American artists we had a flood last winter. Cole passed the winter here, and repainted .his Voyage of Life, which Therwald- son was so delighted with, that he could talk of nothing else fc id of him, he adds vostro com- pat ! @ lia natura 7 — (“ Bat what rtist, what a great artist is that country- man of yours!

T learned last evening, that the two gamblers, who keep the most noted “hell” in Chesnut street, and who have just been convicted at the Criminal Sessions. have given the requisite security, the proprietor of the Olympic Circus becoming one of the bail! Itrust this is not true, for the injury to the young men of the city caused by the influences of these persons, hasbeen great. Te young Por- ter, the son of the Governor, who acts ae epnty Attorney General, great praise is due, for having brought up these men to trial. The more so, because secret means, very potent in the Sessions, were freely used to screen the blers. 1 age that more will be presented, tried, and convicted ; the evil is increasing every day, and bids fair to make us as noted as any southern city.

It has been a long time in preparation, and will so far out- strip any thing of the kind ever attempted, that the Jovers of the drama may sately calculate on a rich treat. We predict for ita good run. We also see another new drama is announced for the same eve- ning.

M. A very moderate business was done at the Stock Board this morning, with but little change in rates. The feel- ing was generally however better. Stonington rose } ; Harlem } ; Canton j. The difficulty with the Planters’ Bank of Mobile caused quite a commotion, and Alabama funds fell back a little— sales at 15. The greater proportion of the charters of the banks of Ohio expire during the coming year, and the result of the late election has placed in power the party most oppo- sed to arechartering of banks. It istrue that party at the last session passed a bill called Latham’s bill, which pro- vides for the rechartering Banks on certain conditions, which conditions however were such as to render the charters worthless. The following are some of the sections of the bill :— Sxc. 16 Provides that “there shall be a register pointed by a joint resolution of the General Assembly, every Sue, ya whose duty it shall be to register the otes oF ‘ : ‘Sec. 17 Provides that each bank shall pay into the State Treasury, such amount as shall be fixed by law, for such registry, and to meet the same,and the salaries of the bank com! ners and their incidental expenses, there shall be raised in addition ie (orb lags bank tax, an additional tax for the purposes afor . Sxc. 18 Provides that, “It shall not be lawful or any bank, either directly or indirectly, in any way, to take, re- ceive, or reserve to ils own use, a sum than at the rate of six per cent. per annum in advance, upon the amount of, or for, any loan made, or on the discount or purchase of any note, bill or obligation, or any renewal thereof, either by way of discount, interest or exchange, or under any other charge or pretence whatsoever.” Sec.20 Provides that, “every bank shall pay into the State Treasury an annual tax of one ‘per centum per annum, on its capital stock paid in, and such other tax upon its capital or circulation, as the General Assembly may hereafter impose, &c.” Sec. 21 Provides that ‘there shall be created fromthe capital stock of such banks as may be incorporated under this act, a safety fund, for the purpose of promptly redeem- ing the circulation of any such bank as may become insol- vent, which fund shall be paid into the State Treasury, and invested forthe purpose aforesaid, in such manner as shall be prescribed by law.” é Sec. 24 Provides that ‘‘there shall be provided at the ex- pense of the bank, k, such as the bank commissioners may prescribe, in which shall be entered the names ofthe stockholders, their residence, and the amount of the stock idin and owned by each stockholder, &c.” ‘This book is be kept by the county Recorder.’ All transfers of stock are to be entered in it ; the Recorder is to be paid for each entry ; and all these entries are to be published once in three months, in a newspaper, at the expense of the bank. All these deductions being made from the six per cent. allowed inthe eighteenth section, would allow three per cent. as the profit of capital employed in banking, at a mo-. ment when the State proposes to borrow at ten per cent. There is but a small chance of any re-chartering under this system. Ohio may, therefore, look forward with joy to the approaching moment of her emancipation from bank musrule. The recent explosion of the Bank of Manchester, end the merging of two other joint stock banks into each ether, give warning of the breaking away of that paper systemin England which grew up in England si- multaneously with the multiplication of banks in this country, and which partook of the looseness of the sys- tem. The system of granting open credits to large cus- tomers without security, or to allow of overdrafts to a great extent, was ascommon among the provincial banks of England as among those institutions here, which long since have perished. The particular Bank of Manchester was formed in 1929, by Mr. Dyer an American dealer, un- der the American influence, which at that time predomi- natedin Lancashire. It became the focus for the Ameri- can trade in that quarter. The Bank of Liverpool sooner was formed in connection with this institution, and W. Brown, Esq. became President. The latter bank was com- paratively well managed, but both these and all other of the English country banks partook of that speculative character which produced the greatness of the intercourse between the United States and England, and which led to subsequent revulsion, debt, dishonor and distress. In the ‘United States a violent curtailment of bank credits first took place,which was succeeded by constant and continu- ed explosions of the banking institutions, exposing a de- gree of folly and corruption perfectly astonishing. The English banks are just now arriving at this stage of the disease. The curtailment in the banking business has Jong been going on and disaster is now overtaking them. The average circulation of the Bank of England forthe few weeks ending October 8,was £20,004,000,and the stock of bullion near £10,000,000. The increase in the quantity of bullion has been very rapid during the last few months, and the stock is now larger than has been held by the bank since about the middle of the year1838. It is at present near- ly half the amount of their netes actually in circulation ; the usual average during many years having been about one-third of the amount of their notes. The immediate cause of the late increase in the stock of bullion is proba- bly to be found in the large quantity of light gold coin which has been sent up toLondon to be exchanged for notes This has been} assisted by a growing want of confidence in other quarters, which has increased the disposition to concentrate gold in the bank. Another point, which is deserving of attention, is the progressive increase for some years past of the circulation of the notes of the Bank of England as compared with the country circulation, The following table will show the state of the circulation in the year 1836 :— Bank of “Joint 'Siock Seottand foint Stock Secor Year. puptand, iy ent Total, fand. i i @ 8,337,089 «98,372,983 td T3617 365640875 1838 TA7z;301 38,129,100 1839 8 “097; ie Tes = 35,198'588 int "308,000 77993699 54,981,182 182 20,004,000 7,918,008 7,117 306 949,304 From this table it appears, that while the decrease in the total circulation of the United Kingdom, from 1836 to 1842 has been £3,422,702, the decrease in the country circula- tion has been £4,960,789, and the increase in the notes of the Bonk of England is £1 623,000. The Bankof England has therefore made an increase in her circulation of about £1,600,000, on £13,000,000, or about 11 per cent., whilethe country bankers have sufter- eda decrease of nearly £5,000,900 on £20,000,000 of cir- culation, being nearly 25 per cent. ‘This gives indubitable evidence of the immense falling off in the country bank profits, involving as in this coun- try, a necessary revulsion in those banks whoge multipli- cation in former years laid the foundatien of their present ruin. ‘The item of the securities held by the Bank of England presents this feature. From about £29,000,000, the amount in August, 1836, the securities have fallen to about £22,- 600,000 in August, 1842. As this is the portion of their re- turns which indicates the profits made by the bank, being the only part from which they can derive interest, it be- comes a matter of serious consideration to the proprietors of bank stock, whether even the present rate of interest can much longer continue to be paid to them. The present expansion of circulation by the bank is un- doubtedly to assist the political views of the government, by forcing af start in business ; but the accumulation of specie in the bank is far too precarious in its nature to admit of any great increase in its securities. If ita source of profit is thus diminished 25 per cent , that of the country banks must bear a similar proportion.
