Tar Saxpwice Istanns —As was anticipated in all properly informed quarters, these Islands have been restored by the British government tothe in- dependent authority of their Sovereiga—which has thus gained greatly added securities, for asthe Times properly remarks, it isto be presumed that the ex- ample of England will not be without its.influence on other nations, and prevent them from interfering with that which she has recognized in so decided a menner. The aeceptation on the part of Admiral Paulett, of the cession of the Islands to the British crown, are altogether conditional; which could not indeed have been otherwise, as he acted without ivatructions, Unable to meet demands made upon her by British subjects, the Sovereign of the Islands tendered to the British Admiral his right of govern- ment in favor of the British crown. For his share in the transaction, Lord Paulett has been ebsolved trom all blame. The continued independence of the Sandwieh Islands is of great importance to our commercial interests. As Mr. Jarves, in his recent instructive and valuable work observes, “if the ports of the group were closed to neutral commerce, many thousand miles of ocean would have to be traversed before havens possessing the requisite conve- niences for recruiting or repairing shipping, could be reached. This fact illustrates their great importance ina naval point of view. Should any of the great nations seize upon them, it might be considered as holding the Key of the North Pacific—for no trade could presper in their vicinity, or even exist, whilst a hostile power, possessing an active and powerful matine, should send forth its cruisers to prey upon the neighboring commerce. Their isolated posi- tion, in connection with their reef, or precipice- bound shores, would add greatly to the local advan- tages of defence, and a military colony, once fairly established, might surely put at defiance any means of attack which could be brought against them.”— About five-eighths of all the vessels visiting the ports cf the Island, are American ; and the amount of American property involved there has been ra- pidly increasing of late years, and now exceeds a million of dollars. But it isnot ina commercial point of view, only, that these fertile and lovely islands, possess claims on ourattention and regard. They are atpresent the scene of some of the brightest triumphs of christianity and civilization. Missionaries of both the Catholic and Protestant faith, have been zeal- ously dispensing the bleesings of the religion ot peace and love, and des;ite of many adverse influ- ences, have been singularly successful in over- throwing idolatry, superstition and error, and con- verting a land of barbarism aad heathenism into one of order, religion and peaceful industry. All the friends of human liberty must therefore rejoice that this recent addition to the extended domains of Christeudom, is growing up, prosperously and hap- pily, under the genial influences of a free and inde- pendent civil government. Movements —Lord Spencer Compton, J. W. Maunsell, and J. W. Bewes, from St. John, arrived yesterday at the Astor House. ‘ol. Tohasos was expected to arrive at Cincinnati on ‘he Yet inst Hon. Zatock Pratt, member of Congress elect from this State, is in town, at City Hotel. Mr. Croswell, editor of the Government Organ, at Albany, and Col Hamilton, the Governor's aid, are in town, and have, of course, taken quarters at Howards’. Governor Bouck and euite will arrive at 80’clock this morning in an extra train from Westchester county, and take rooms at the Court Hotel, accord- ding to previous arrangement. Mr. Howard gives his Excellency the same reoms that were occupied by President Tyler. Gov. Bouck was particularly desirous that he might sleep in the identical bed slept in by the President—a request which Mr. How- ard has graciously granted American CREDIT LooKiNG vr.—We learn from undoubted authority that orders were received by the Great Western from England, for the purchase of American Stocks on foreign account. We also learn that American credit is reviving in Europe generally. A Sueerstion.—A number of the Boston mer- chaots have asked Commander McKenzie to allow his portrait to be taken, and he has very graciously consented. We would, in all humility, suggest the propriety of McKenzie’s Boston friends getting an historical picture, instead of a mere portrait. A view of the deck of the Somers on the day of the execution, might be painted—the gallant and chi- valrous Commander with the black cap on, and his three victims suspended at the yard-arm. It isn’t a very handsome “‘mug”—the accessories would give it appropriate relief. A Lirerary Paenomenon —The acute editor of the Philadelphia Spirit of the Tumes has pointed out a very remarkable coincidence between the plot and incident of Poe's prize-tale, entitled “The Gold Bug,” and those of an interesting story, called “Imogene,” which was published two years ago by Miss Sherburne of Washington city. We sug- gest to Mr. Poe the propriety of altering the title of his story to the “*Hum-bug,” when it reaches a second edition. Geeat Repeat Convention. —The repealers of the United States are making great preparations for ho'ding a National Convention in this city in the moat! of September next. Deputations from Bal- umore, Boston, and other places, are at present here making preliminary arrangements in concert with the association in this city. More or rae Borrs.—The indefatigable John Botts, bas written an elaborate reply to John Junes’ review of kis pamphlet and affidavit—“ price one shilling.” It appeared inthe Richmond Whig. It is nothing like as good as the history of the bed chamber scene. Very few are likely to trouble themselves now about the wars of the Johns. “ Blockheads, with reason, wicked wits abhor, But fool with fool is barbareus civil wer.” Tue Scorcn Murpaess.—The examination in this case hae been still further postponed to Friday next, to afford the medical gentlemen employed time to test the sanity of the unfortanate woman. Tue Hawkers axp Paeptans.—We have already ailowed this class of the community a very consid- erable share of the privileges of our columns, but must decline inserting any additional communica- tions. And once for all we repeat that this hawk. ing business nuisance which should be suppres- wed altogether. The hawkers pay no rent—no taxes—no advertisements, and thus undersell the re- spectable citizens who have stores. Besides, they net unfrequently cheat their purchasers by selling an iuferior article, having no reputation as merchants atsteke. Inall cities hawking should be suppressed at once. Toe Aewy Mepicat. Boanp of Examinans ie at eseu| iu wemsion in this @ity The Fourth of July. Oar great national annual festival takes place this day. We may, we are very well-assured, be excused frem saying one werd with the view of stirring up the patriotic feelings of the inhabitants of the chief erty of the Union on such an oceavion. Every body will give full vent to their enthusiastic affections tor the free institutions, which have now stood the te-tof nearly three quarters of a century, and whose successtal operation has converted an humble colony into the great free nation of modern times. it may not be amiss, however, to repeat the old, stereotyped adv ce about sobriety and temperance, and the customary admonition, about the danger of fire-arms and fire-works in ineautious hauds. We hope that all—{rom the dignified Alderman to the ragged urchio, who has expended the savings of the Jast three months in gonpowder, will conduct the affair with discretion. We annex a full and explicit description of the amusements, excursions, and particular celebrations of the day, by which all will be enabled to make the important discovery of the best means ot dis- posing of their time, ¢ spare dolla Sream Boat FExcurstons.—Elizabethtown and Somerville. —Excursion trips will be ran on the Eli- zabethiown and Somerville Railroad, tor three days, viz:~Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday—to an from New York and Somerville, Round Brook, New Market, Plainfield, Seotchpleins, and West field, being the most pleasant route for a country excursion, in the State of New Jersey— making four trips each way.

Mann's Circus—Last Day—Day and Even- ing Performances—\ his is the place for feats of sgulity, and Jaughter-moving sallies of wit. The nding is superb, and, thanks to the judicious management of Cadwallader, every thing goes on tike clock work. Young Glenroy, who ‘‘vaulte from the ground like feathered Mercury,” ie the very beau ideal of a graceful 5 gee and it may indeed be said of him, as of Harry the 5th, that he is well fitted “to witeh the world with noble horse- manship.” Gorsin, the Clown—but who has not heard of that sun of Momus. The advertisemant offers a rich bill of fare for the Fourth. Those who wish to obtain seats had better go early. 4Cedebration of Freedom's Birthday—A_mag- nificent pavilion, covering an aere of ground, near Union Square, is being erected for the celebration of the glorious Fourth. The Olympic Games in every variety, including equestrianism by W. A. Delavan’s splendid troupe, and gymnastic and Gre- cian Exercises by the athlete ot teesnae unrivailed corps, are amongst the amusements. The benches are constructed around,this spacious arena alter the manner of those of the Coliseum, and are capable of accommodating an immense multitude, withont the smallest peasible inconvenience to the audience, perfectly protected from the rays of the sun, and surrounded by the fine open air of that beautiful suburb. The games and exercises willbe continued twicg during the day Park Theatre. —We believe this theatre is to be open this evening, but we have no particulars. At Niblo's.—The famous Ravel family wil give ” nine of their best entertainments. Miss Wells and Mr. Martin are engaged.

The Museums —The American Museum, on the coruer of Ann street and Broadway, with its hun- dred windows, end its thousand and one curiosities, should not be forgotton.

See advertisement. Amidst the great preparations being made to cele- brate the Fourth, we doubt if any place can surpass Peale’s Museum. _ As an eligible situation to view the various processions, it is before ail others, being opposite the k—the very focus of attractio: The Giant Girl, and performances expressly culct- Jated tor the occasion, coustitute its claims to pa- tronage. end a N tional Academy.—This is the last day of the exhibition, Admittance 25 cents; catalogues 12 cents Lafayette Hall.—Mr. Charles Stuart, ef this city, will deliver av oration, at Lafayette ‘Hall, a3 P. M., before the “Independence Guard,” on occa- sion of their Anniversary. Dr. Hawxs.—It is ramored that this distinguished divine and popular orator, intends shortly to travel south and take up his permanent residence there. Several reasons for this movement have been men- tioned to us by parties, whose means of obtaining the information are tolerably good, but at present we do not see any necessity of saying more on the subject. Asser Hore, —This truly magnificent spot is now kept in fine style by Mr. Van Rensselaer. The stately venerable trees around about this establish- ment gives it anair of grandeur and antiquity which you will scarcely find equalled any where upon this continent. The sight of the grounds is alone worth aride out to this favored paradise of Bloomingdale. For quiet and retiremeat no place surpasses it. Spend the Fourth of July there and try it. Betmont Hovse.—This delightful place at New Brighton will be thronged to-day, as it richly de- serves. Its vicinity to the city, in addition to its quiet and seclusion from the noise and disturbance of the city, constitute its great attractions. You will find in Mr. Pierris every thing you coulddesire ina host, Tue WeatTuer.—The weather has become quite cool and comfortable. By the Philadelphia papers we. perceive that on Saturday last the thermometer rose to 104 degrees at half past two o’clock. On Saturday it rose to 98, and on Friday to 94—tres Jours de few. RemarkaBege VeGeTaB.E Propuction.—There was sent to our office yesterday, for the inspection of the curious in such matters, a very extraordinary vegetable production. It belonged, it was said, to that valuable genus—the radish, but presented a most singular grotesque likeness of the human form —something like one of those diminutive wooden gods which enrich the museums of our Foreign Missionary Societies. It was certainly an interest- ing object, but nothing at all comparable in bizar- rerie, grotesqueness and greenness te the squash which presides over the destinies of Charles Fou- rier and Henry Clay. As to the paternity of the vegetable caricature on the human race, there can- not we suppose be much doubt. It remains, how- ever, for the inspectien of the physiologist, and as the organ of Charlies Fourier and one of the Christs ot the new philosophy isto be found not very far from the thirteen cornerso 1 ature, all to whom the study presents sufficient tt actions, may very easily “look upon this picture and on that” and draw the appropriate dedu Accipent BY THE SquaLu.—During the squall on Sunday, a pleasure sloop sail boat, when nearing the dock at Spring street, was struck by the wind and upset, precipitating some 10 or 12 men and boys into the river. A row boat put off and rescued them. No lives lost. Tux Squaty.—The “Philadelphia Inquirer” gives the following account of the ‘‘ gust” of yesterday, as it visited that city. It will be observed that it swept over this city but one hour after it passed over Phi- ladelphia, and the rate at which it travelled, may therefore be calculated. “Yesterday afternoon, about four o’clock, the city was visited by a heavy gust from the N. W., which brought with it clouds of dust, filling the streets, and almost blinding persons who were walk- ing against the wind. As viewed from the Jersey shore of the Delaware, the scene was striking andgrand. For atleast ten minutes a light brown cloud or atmosphere seemed to approach the city, extending toa considerable heizht. It struck the Delaware near Kensington, and as it travelled tu- riously down the river, the volumes oi dust conceal- ed every vessel, boat, and building from view, throwing up a foaming rank of waves in its wild march. Ina few minutes the entire city was conceal. ed from the spectator, and the dust drifted so thickly over the stormy water, that it was impossi- ble to eee many yards. The cloud oecupied abont five minutes in passing, and was seen hovering in the distance asi: travelled over Jersey, for more than half au hour. We much fear that some da- mage has been experienced to the northwest of this city. Later vrom Kineston, (Jamaica.)—By the arri- val of the brig Echo, Captain Dyer, at Philadel phia, we have received files to the 17th of June. There is nothing of importance in the way of news. The principal topic of interest presented in the pa- pers, is a discuseion as to which of the two banks on the Island should be selected as the depository of the public funds. The correspondent oi the U. 8. Gazette writes as follows, under date of the 17th + It is with sincere regret that we have to announce the melancholy intelli,ence of the decease of Lady Elgin, wife of Lord Elgin, Governor of Jamaica. Herdeath took place early on the morning of the 7th of June, after giving premature bifth to a daughter, that enly survived iw delivery a iew hours. The Countess had endeared he if to ull classes by her amiable wn fable disposi- tion, and small mark of the re in which her memory was held, os well as respect ior the feelings of her husband, all the public effices and places of business were closed, and continued so wutil the interment next hip was the daughter of Mojor Cummins arried to Lord Elgin, in the latter part left a daughter, born shortly after her Her Ladyship had not completed her 291 year at the time of her decease. of 1841. arrival in Jam She Nito’s.—Fourts or Jucy Cevepration—Ravet. Fami.y—Fireworks,&c.—The preparations to cel- ebrate thia great day, are on the most stupendous scale—one look at the bill is sufficient to convince us that the Garden offers greater attractions than on any previous occasion. The Ravel Family, so an- xiously wished for, appear in nine entertainments. The Fireworks are an absolute entertainment by themselves, not mentioning euch a Band as was never before heard on the Fourth of July, and which will occupy different parts of the Garden in the Promenades. The Fountains, and every part ot this extensive establishment is to be magnificently illuminated alternately with gas and varigated lamps ‘The garden will be found the coolest, most amu- sing, agreeable, and elegant and attractive of the day. Niblo’s is the ccuntry within the city—how- ever crewded, from its magnitude (and it will con- tain thousands) a numerous auditory will always find every accommodation of the higheet charac- ter. Le Pre aux Clercs.—Herold’s opera was given st night, and went off admirably. The Prima Donna, M’eelie Calvé, appeared to greater advan- tage than ever. Madame and Monsieur Le Court, Dessonville, Oiernot, and Richer, gave great satis- faction in their respective characters. It will be re- peated on Wednesday night. The celebrated bass singer Monsier Biés is engaged, and will appear in a few nights in the Chalet, Report speaks highly of him, and his first appearance looked for with ,inte- rest by the amateurs of music Tur Genuine Parxiorism versus THE Farss.— We find in some of our English exchenge papers, the report of a speech delivered on a festive occa- sion recently by M. Lamartine, the spirit and senti- mentsof which contrast £0 strongly with those of the selfish demagogues in ull lands, that we canno’ refrain wom giving a short ext: You seem to reflect; Lusk then, would it not be far bet ter to be ali united, that the union be cemented in time, andthat we be ail vivified by the seme public sptr steeped in one common interest, round which all the ci zens should ruily and unite their power against internal factions and internal enewies. And that the people thus called upon, exercise their rights and intelligence, should know beforehand in whom they may coufile—on whom to look for defence, for guidance. and instruction, Whe to look for #8 counsellor and ehie's. Who o! the citizens aremost inspired with that sacred fire which lights uy patriotism; but which drowns and consumes miserabiv coleries, and wretched factions. Ay, there alone, is safety und security to be found. These are butthe solic masses, which are sufficiently strong to crush perties and jactions. The time for the masses is coming on, and I re- joice to see it; but their accession must be regviar for it to bedurable. Yes, this is what makes me attach so high a price to these mectings—to these grund reviews of pub lic opinion; yes, to these grand reviews of public opinion —if | may be allowed the expression—to these public communications, when men who rarely have occasion in every day life to speak to cach other, Jearnto know and ask each other, when the hard that grasps the pen or the sword isstretcbed forth to grasp the hand which guides the plough or the chisel—wken ail doctrines are anniht- lated, and ideas are brought closer together and pene- trate into ourhearts. Ay; itis novel and grand to as semble the people together in such stupendous massee— not to excite them against their rulers—not to pander to their bad passions, othe contrary, to bauish our prejudices, which en us by dividing us, which— A Voice—Yes, like O’Connell in Ireland, M. pe Lamantive—I hear the name of O’Connell pro- nouncea, No, Gentlemen ; happily there is nothing in common between O'Connell and ourselves, between Ire- jand and France. What do we see? The papersevery day are filied with his invocationsto independence We set O'Connell, a passionate, popular national orator, a Catholic tribune of the mi ages, assume the title of Agitator of his country, stirring up with his breath the good or bad passions of the population, and those lowering ‘empe-ts trom which occasionally liberty may emerge, but far more frequently rum aod the aggravated servi- tude of a nation. , Thanks be to God and to you, we have nothing of tuis sort in France. There can never be any necess: to agitate a free country which is in no danger of losing ite liberty. On the contrary, gentlemen, we huve rather to appease than to excite the public mind, and show the masses, in their undisturbed tranquillity, the extent of their own power and authority. ‘The pub- he mind, gentlemen, is the all: powerfl arm ofthe Oppo- sition. It will suttice for it, but we must not allow it to be employed with indifference. I read in your eyes, and penetrate into the ideas which flitacross your minds, You say, “ This is all very true, but in this constant struggle between the Ministers and the country, in which the wers that be jave they not combatants are ceaselessly disputing, the have great advantages over the citix places, powers, pensions, honorsto distribute, and all thet arsenal ot government influerce, legitimate and palpable, in which it can precure the means to deaden the public conscience, and can even degrade itself to corruption ” ‘This is true, gentlemen. But if tne powers that be have corruption for their support, have not the people, on the other hand, a sufficient power, if they know how to distribuce it with justice, which will suffice to counterbalance the vast weight ot illegal government influence? Aye, if the government have corruption at their disp sal, donot the people rejoice in their own self esteem ! Tae good opinion of the people is the only cor. ruption employed by interested men. It is the only one worthy of you and me It is the only reward for which I cau ever hope when I serve you, or even when I dare to resist you. Armed with the support of public ov mn, a nation can always do as it chooses. By means of peaceful persuasion we will bring back the govern- ment of 1830 to those paths in which | wish to see them. And shouldthe government persist in its present course, and in divorcing itself trom the legitimate teadencies of the nation—should it obstinately persist to compromise the satety of the State, under the accumulation of its rors, France will notjoin it in its obstina v ded. Great dynasties have been swept away; fortune of France has never been permitted to pass away with any one mau, orany one power, But even now let us hope for the best—let us not di Public opinion both the country and the government. Te do this we need employ neither threats, sedition, or agitation. The only sedition of a free people is, when its government wanders from the right path, not to follow it, and its only threat is to fear nothing. Gentlemen, in re. plying to the toast which las becn so courteously pro. voted by your president, allow mo, in m a toast, wl ich resumesin a word all ed senti din fact, those of the whole country—may I id, the sentiment of Providence herself, who, aiter having so long goveried mankind by meansoi men, seems henceiorth to wish them to be governed by opinions Geutiemen, | beg to propose to you “the regular and peaceful accomptishment of the doctrines of deinocracy.” (Unauimous and prolonged app.ause.) Thisis the right spirit. These are the sentiments which animate the bosoms of all the faithful and wise lovers of liberty and their race. Con. Jounson pip Kut Tacumseu.—Col. John- son hag at last, we believe for the first time publicly confessed the soft impeachment, aud Jaid claim to the honer ot killing Tecumsei. In the Jate speech delivered by the gallant Colonel at Springfield, Jili- nois, his description of the conflict is thus re- ported :— Colonel Jonxson snid, that at his age it wos wrong to puton any false modesty ; and as he had been called upon to reiate that portion of the fight which took place with the Indians, he wouid endeavor to do so. The dians were 1490 strong, commandei by Tecumseh, one of the bravest warriors that ever drew breath.

This fast sailing steamer arrived at Boston yester day morning, at four o'clock, bringing dates to th: evening of the 20th of June from Liverpool, and London the 19th, making a passage in 12 duys. No news of the least importance. Rumours reached Paris at the end of the week that Espartero and the young Queen of Spain had fled from the capital. The French Government is accused of withholding the news from Spain for purposes of ats own. There was no truth in the statement, though it is evident that the position of Espartero is still critical. Nothing wortyy of note had occurred in France. Under the proper heads will be found all that is really snteresting in the continental news. The locusts of Egypt have nearly destroyed the cotton crop. The Pope of Rome has ordered prayers and pro- cessions, to implore .protection against the grass- hoppers. Tye epidemy amongst oxen still continued in Egypt more than five thousand, lately purchased for Tbrahim Pacha had died of this distemper.

The Great Western took out an interesting mass of Irish news.

Loxpon Money Marxer, June 19.—In the Stock Mar- ket this morniug, therehas been a slighy depressien in Consois, owing to the daily aggravation of affairs in Spain, which anpetr to be taking a direction that may subvert all order in the Peninsula, and again lead to foreign in- tervention, as Espartero alonecan hardly have the means of combating an insurrection organized throughout the wholecountry. O/course Spanish Stock has, more than the English, becn depressed.

Buacrany axo Annest.—On Sunday night the house of Mr. James S. Petrie, No.29 Rivington street, was bur- glariously entered through the rei ment window by three striplings, whore names are John Darlins, Henry Weeks, avd Francis Moreland, who carried off a great quantity of ladies’ and gentlemens’ wearing apparel, knives and forks, &c., to the amount of $133 60. The fa- mily of Mr. Petrie being at the time in the country, leav ing only two servant girla in the house; one ofthem Mary O'Neill, on getting up, discovered the robbery, and in an agony of fright gave information to the police office, but the goods were there betore her,and also the thieves—she was shewn the property, which she identified. It so happened, that between 4 and 6 o’clock yesterday mor- ning, Samuel Gallon Sal per in the Bowery Theatre, was coming trom bis house in Elizebeth street, ond espied before him three men carrying three parasols, and a quantity of other goods wrapped up in a white shawl. Suspecting that the men were rogues and had committed sume robbery, with praiseworthy determina- tion, he followed them at a safe dirtance, and saw them enter the shop of Hopkins Barnes, in Division street, near Pike, where they remained for a’ considerable length of time. When they came out, they had a wicker market basket and asmall bundle, with which they proceeded to agrocery in Elizabeth, corner of Bayard stceet, where they leit the bangle, and next proceeded to Orange street, where they remained. Gallon immediately applied at the Police otfice, and procured the assistance of officer Davia, who arrested the th rec fellows, and lodged them safely in the Tombs, Mor land, who is but 16 years of age, by trade a copperplate printer, at No. 67 Muiberry strect, made aconiession of the robbery and stated that they sold 4 portion of the goods, vained at $43, to Hopkins Barnes tor $3 60, he knowing at the time that the goods had beep stolen.

We u: derstand the Manhattan Bank refuses to pay out its own bills, as the new law applies to oll chartered bank». Oa Saturday, July Ist,the law abolishing Bank Com- missioners went into eftect—and on the first Monday of August next, the first quarterly accounts are to be pub- jished. This law is likely to have a great influence up on the banking movements of this State, and consequent ly upon that of the whele Union. We will give a sum- mary of the provisions of this law:— Syn tHe Law To apoLisH THE oprice or Bank COMMISSIONERS, AND FOR OTHER PUKPOSES, PASSED Arnit 18, 1843 Sxe. 1. Every cuartered Bank is required on the Let July, 1843, to deposite with the Comptroiler tne:r bill plates, wita a full and accurate account of all the notes vutstanding on that day.

The stockholders to be individually liable for ail old notes outstanding after July 1844. After July 1244, no ,bank shall assue a note not countersigned and registered at the comptroiler’s office. All notes issued prior to Jaly 1843, and not countersigned before July 1844, shall on that da be destroyed in presence of the comptroller, who shall prepare a certificate to that ettect. Src. 2. The comptroller shall keep the plates, and de. liver to the benks such notes as they require to an amount, which, with all previously outstendiog, shall not excved the amouat now ellowed by law, (viz: twice thecopitat] He shall employ suitable persons to sign all notes which shall be registered betoce delivery to the bauks.

The free banks are obliged to deposite {ali and adequete security, injthe shape of good New York stocks, in the hands o! the Comptroller for the payment of the notes, ‘The safety Fund Banks are not required to deposite any security for the redemption of their bills — Phesecurity of the bill-holder is no greater under the new regulation than tnder the old law, and will depend «pon his faith in the hank altogether. The probability is, that under this state of things, the free bank bills will become the favorites with the public, as they ha In AO- tual specific security which the others have pot. Under these circumstances, it will he difficult to retain aciren , lation, The object of the law is to prevent the infringe. ment of the safety fund law, which forbids the hypothe: sation of notes, That provision has always neen evaded, and has led to extensive Josses.
