4 hiladelphia | Riote—Further = Investigation. (From the Philadelphia Sun of July 13.] you testimony was given before Judge Jones D, Gnoven was called forward who testified us | reside at No. 12 Federal street; I first heard o! the disturbance about six o'clock Friday; I was then op my road up; there was a considerable collection about the caurch, and they said there were armain the church; | selt anxious to know the truth of the matter, and looked around, as! wanted to see the person who lived west of the church; I knew him, 1 have known him for many Farr I cannot recollect his name just now; I think it ix ih Robbins, I am not positive, however; | eventually found him; he said he saw arms there; had seen them in the caurch; | asked him if he had seen guns taken in that afternoon; he said not, some of his family had; I then pro- ceeded towards Second street and stopped for @ moment nearly opposite Alderman Hortz’s door; as the people were increasing | thought it time for me to go home; there were between three and four hundred there at that time; 1 then went down to Sommer’s Court where [ stopped at Mr, Glen's for a short time; smeked a cigar and then re- turned to Queen street; I went up and down several times in the course of the evening; while | was settling there several rough lookiag men came up and were proceeding up the Court when I told them they could not go up here was no communication with the church in that ection; I presoee they were members. After some time nad elapsed, Mr, Penrose Ash came and said the Sheriff’ wos there, and asked me what I thought had better be done; vid him the arms had better be moved, as it would quiet t ue peop! @ said he was of the same opinion; by this time there was a great collection of persons about the church, extending down to Second street; they ap- peared to be very much excited; while I was sitting at Mr Glen’s there was a rush; I went up and found them teking the guns from the church; 1 think there were 12. acme said more; | think there were not more than 12; af- e» that I went home; there was much Jou rood deal of excitement; nothing sa ut_burning thechurch that I heard of; I cannot n: y of the per sons most turbulent; I did not see Andrew M’Clain there (» Saturday, after [ took my tea, I started to go to the Museum; it was between 6 and 7 o'clock; I walked up Second street, right through the crowd; i glanced, as 1 passed, over my left shoulder, and crossed to the upper side of the street, diagonally, and pansed for a moment some distance above Queen street; I saw the Sheriff's posse there for the first time; I do not know whether thev had badges on or not; I then went up town. On my return home I took another route; I went down Christian street and came up Second to Mr. Glen’s where I sat awhile and smoked a cigar; after which I went home; it wan upon Sunday morning, between 11 and 12 0’clock, while I was standing at the south-east corner of Christian and Second streets, { heard a great hurraing, and there came a number of men and boys hauling a cannon on timber wheels down Second street: then turned up Christian and halted when they cleared the range of the street; I should think they were a hundred of them; very few of them were men comparatively; they had only one gun; when they stopped, the muzzle was pointed to- wards me; and I told them to turn it in another direction, aa I did not wish to be shot; I cannot'name any of them who had hokl of the rope; I may have’ known some, but I did not recognize them; | did not know what they purposed doing with the gun ; [do not know what was going on in front of the church at this time ; I then went home to dinner; I had been home but a few min- es when some one rung the bell ; from the hurried man. ner in which he spoke, I knew I was « anted, and hurried up stairs, and just as | got to the door I heard the report of a gun ; he snid, “ Mr. Grover, 1 fear 1 have come too Jate ;” I asked what was the matter, and he told me of the Aoings at the church ; I cannot recollect the name of the person who called on me—he does not live in our parts; I think heusedto play ahand organ; I put on my coat an‘ went direct to Mr. Levin’s residence; I rung the bell, and war invited into the parlor; when he come into the ro#m, I told him | thought he had better come down; he said, “If Tan do any good I will go with pleasure :” a gentleman who was dining with him came along ; when we got to the Commissioners’ Hall, some one asked what we were going to do; I said “ take charge of the guns ;” be said that was right ; we then passed on to Christian » ‘eet, and up to the court; [ took the lead up to where the guns were stationed behind the chapel ; there were a great number of persons in the court and about the church ; ai we went up the crowd gave way; I snp- pose there were three huvdred or four hundred per- sons in and about the place ; 1 got on one gun, and Mr Levin on the other ; 1 then began to talk to them, and naid Mr. Levin wae going to address them; I eventually got them quiet ; they must have firedthe cannons more than once ; I heard the report as I was coming down 2d street ; they were in the act of priming when I mounted it ; Mr. Levin commenced addressing them and spoke for some time ; occasionally they got a little noisy and I had to speak to i when he cal take take the gun appeared to be opposed to the movement ; I did not see Mr. 1 Slain there ; | then called on the better citizens to uid 1 >; some pulled one way some another ; some appeared drunk and quite riotous ; | got on the gnn again and one man said, let us fire the gun once more ; @ appeared to be very busy [ inquirad of Mr. Dickhart who he was, and he said he hada brother shot in Kensington ; J said thi taccounted for it; they now cried will you ride upon t'« gun; I said yes you may ride me anywhere, so you ‘ac not ride me to the devil ; I thonght it was best to hu mor them ; the rope was then cut; it was afterwards brought back and tied, and the gun hauled down Christian + Second, and up Second street to the Hall ; I found iney were going the wrong way, and got off and prevailed on them to turn it south, which they did; | then went to the other gun and we run it down to Christian street .wharf, where some old gentleman handed me a nail, which I drove into the touch hole; previous to this the other gun had been taken down te Neal & Simpson’s mary I went there with the purpose of spiking it; [ told Mr Neal not to let them take he gun again ; he said he wonld not if he could prevent ; the gna appeared to be under his charge; I was told tuey got it from bis yard ; it is north of Christin street ; there was not a mén there that [ could call by name ; | conld recognize several of them if they were in the same dress ; [knew several of course who were endeavoring to pacify the mob, and aid me in quelling the disturbance; when I returned to the Hall, | saw a great rush there an found they were organizing a meeting ; and I was called to the chair; after vice presidents and secretaries had been appointed, resolutions were passed recommending that a committee of twenty-five from each ward be ap- pointed, and that measures be taken to support the and defend the church ; J persuaded the meeting to hey got quiet at last, andI told them to yy : this was rather e'stumper, and some journ as soon as possible, and told all that could, to go to their wards, and get badges on; Ithen went home and got two flags and put them on poles und returned; a great number of people were in the streets, 1 opened the fags oul as [| passed through; I went on the church steps; | say that several thousand were in the street at tl some were excited ; others were mere apectators up one of the fligs and gave the other to Mr. Levin; as tort time after that | went ito the church, and gave my flag to a stranger to hold; Mr. Levin did the same; I have not seen either of ¢ since; after I entered the church | eleva ed myself and tried to quiet them ; they then got a battering 1am and beat against the door; Mr. Johnson and Mr McElroy were outside and tried to stop them ; they pounded against the door for a long time ; I told them they might stop, for they should not get in without croxsing over my body; a short time after this an entrance was effected and in they rushed “helter skelter ;” some rushed to the library and got out the books, and all was contusion ; | was afraid they would fire the building ; two attempts were made; once it smoked; in less than half an hour there were, I think, not less than two thou- sand people inside; the: yng about committing ex- sees, and | saw asmall toy trying to fire some part of ‘he wood work with a box of lucifer matches; some in « de appeared intoxicated; I should take the most of them to be Europeans; they were not my countrymen; we had to humor them and to keep a strict watch; after atime we got the most of them out, and the doors were nailed up; there was a meeting inside the church I was too busy to see what was done ; I thought the Sheriff had better be twatior, an did not feel disposed to vet longer; I think tne Sheriff was sent for, We had been quiet for an hour and a half before the mil@tary came down; I went to Mr Glen’s and smoked a cigar; felt at about the Church; there were very few people then there ; they had dis persed and gone home ; the mob came down with the mili tary By Judge Jonxs—The military certainly brought the mob with them; Sunday being an idle day, there were u reat many afterthem, as they made a fine display, and fia bands of music with them; no one doubts that they brought the mob with them; when I heard they were coming, I put out my cigar and went into the church; word was soon brought that General Cadwallader -vanted me; I ent word that if he wanted me, he could come gnd see me; word came again; | sent back the same reply ; word eame a third time; | then said I would go out and ave him; some one inaide objected; when I went out Mr Bradford said, this is Mr. Grover; the General then came up to me, and asked me if [ would get the men out of the church; 1 said 1 will try; the Greys came on a charge while Iwas standing talking, and I received a prick under he shoulder with @ boyonet; General Cadwalleder did not tell me that he represented the sheriff, nor did | hear him any one that he represented the sheriff; after I had \ ftthe General, a young man said to me, ‘do you see that soldier with his gun cocked?” Ilooked and saw h. point his gun several times as if in the act of Seine appeared (o me asif he was going to shoot an Indian;

The riot- ers ure being arrested daily, owing to the handsome reward oflered dor them, and if it be possible to get impartial petit juries, it is extremely likely that ri- oting will most effectually be put an end to in th city. This is truly gratifying, and we only hop: that incendiary spirits will do nothing more to pro- voke discord, or to embitter the teelings of one Christian sect against another. Why cannot ali live in peace and pageant : The direct cost of quelling the riots of so fre- quent occurrence in our city can be reached and is tully appreciated by the tax-payers of the county, for they have the amount ES pay.andl asnotonly the reallestate holder, but every individual who paystax participates in this payment, ail are able to form a pretty correct idea of the onerous exaction. There is another item in the account, however, which is not so easily ascertained, and one which is too fre quently lost sight of altogether We allude to the joss of trade and business to our citizens ‘We meet many inaividuals who complain of be- ing comparatively without business, and all know that a large proportion of the trade of the city has been at least temporarily cut off. We have ear of cases of merchants driven to other cities for their purchases, who have found it difficult to have their goods sent by way of Philadelphia, to pass over our public works, thus not only losing to ur city the business which would otherwise stop here, but affecting the state revenues by lessening the Renepoetancy of the state works. These are facts whieh should be spoken of and considered. The loss to Philadelphia, by the two last riots, by loss of business to our business men, we have no doubt reaches millions of dollars! This is a large sum, but @ minute calculation on a very moderate estimate of the business of every man, from the wholesale merchant down to the individual whose only capi- tal ishis daily toil, (and the day laborer comes in fer his full proportion of the sacrifice,) will show an aggregate loss as great as we have stated it, and which, occuring by either of the calamities of flood or fire, would excite the wonder and enlist the sympathies of the whole civilized world. The damage to our system of government, in the loss of reputation, is beyond estimate, and will require years of sober observance of law to repair it. Later From Mexico.—The U.S. frigate Poto- mae arrived at Pensacola on the 6th instant, with advices from Vera Cruzto the 28th ult, inclusive. We left the U. S. revenue cutter Woodbury there, waiting for aninstalment (of about $125,000) of the in demnity secured to our citizens by the treaty with Mexi co; and which wasdue enthe lst of June, but is with- held by President Santa Anna, until he shall be apprised of the fa‘e of the annexation treaty before our Senate.— In the event of an actual avnexation—or, as some well informed people believe, during the pendency of efforts on the part of our government to effect it, the Mexican President 1s determined to pay no more instalments of the indemnity. He is said to found his refusal on the plea, that as occurrence of war between twonations abrogates all treaty stipulations that may have previously been binding on either, and the Mexican government having solemnly proclaimed to the world that she will consider the fact of anncxation as a virtual declaration of war against her by the United Stotes, and as she views the ef- forts of our government, by negociation or otherwi bring about an annexation, as assuming a belligerent titude towards her; she deems herself fully justified in snspending the fulfilment of her treaty obligations to us, until we put an end to “ quasi war” which, she alleges, our government is waging against her ! Notwithstandin, Santa Annw’s lofty tone in this respect, however, I shoul not be suprised if, taking counsel from the better part of valor, he were to pay the present instalment, without any further mouthing of the matter, since Congress has ad journed without authorizing the annexation of Texas, at this session—provided always, that he can raise the wind to meet the payment. Gen. Canalizo has been appointed Generalisimo of the army destined for the recovery of the department of Texas. Gen. Woll, who has so eye cammanded in that region, will not, it is thought, take his supersedeas ver kindly. And as Gen Urrea is said already to be in revolt in the state of Sonora, aud Canales more, than disaffected, Santa Anna may find work enough to occupy all his lei. sure moments and spare troops nearerghome than Texas The moment, however, that he evinces the slightest luke- warmness in the all-absorbing Mexican hobby of recov ering Texas, the elements of opposition to his rule will be concentrated to oust him from the presidency, at least adozen chieftains having fixed their eyes and hearta in- tently upon that glittering prize of the political aspirants of that afflicted country. Tue Froops —The St. Charles (Mo.) Advertiser says, incalculable injury has been done to the bot- tom lands in that vicinity by the heavy devosit of sand during the recent high rise of the Missouri and Mississippi rivers. We learn that most of the richest bottoms in this State have been ruined in that way, the sand being in some instances five feet deep. The Bayou Sara Ledger of Saturday last says that— “Our town, with the exception of the squaree fronting immediately on the river, between the Bayou Sara ani Principal street, ia fairly inundated. Some families have already left their dwellings, aad others are preparing to follow. Altogether, the pro: is uncomfortable enough, for, when the water leaves us, the action of the sun on the deposit of vegetable and other matter will scarcely fail to produce death dealing pestilence among our citizens. It will be a miracle if they escape.” The New Orleans Picayune of the 10th instant says that the water in the river opposite that city was yester- day an inch anda half higher than it beefi before this ear. We had the curiosity to cross over to Algiers to look upon the swollen tide of the great “ Father of Wa: ters,” and the sight is indeed a fearful one. To see the broad surface of the turbid, rapid stream several feet high- er than the pavements of the streets, whichjare protected from it by a levee that the waters already nearly overtop, may well strike a stranger as an extraordinary scene and acitizen as a fearful one. The quantities of drift wood which flow past you give passable indication of the im- mense rapidity of the current, and when you consider, in connection with this,the known depth of the river, it is fearful to contemplate the ruin which must accrue from acrev: Poor Algiers looks so submerged alrea dy that apparently little harm would come to her were she entirely overflown. But this is the appearance only; the reality would be signally different. Collector of New Orleans. Sir— Tread with surprise an anonymous letter, dated New Orleans, July 5th, 1844, signed “S. W.,” and published in yesterday’s Herald, commenting upon the recent appointment of Thomas Barrett, Esq , as Collector of New Orleaus, and speaking ot his character as chant and g an in terms which eve: New Orleans knows to be false. It is true that Mr. Bar- rett isan Irishman by birth, and for many years a mer- chant of hi, itanding and character in the city of New Orleans. Itistrue that Mr. Barrett, in common with thou- sands of the first merchants o! this country, became in- solvent ; but it is not true thatasa bankrupt he lost his character fer integrity, and igh-minded and_honor- able merchant. is @ wellknown fact in New Orleans, that as un extensive cotton factor he hae retained the con- fidence of a large circle of cotton planters in Mississippi aod Lonisiana, and is now acting, commission mer chant, in the capseity of their confidential agent. ‘The appointment of Collector was conterred upon Mr. Barrett without his solicitation or knowledge, or that of Irish friends.” The statement that Mr. Barrett is unable to give a good and sufficient bond isnot true. ‘The writer of this notice happens to know that Mr. Barre.’s bond could not have been received in New Orleans by the 6th of July. The annexed notices of Mr. Barrett's ap- pointment as Collector of the port of New Orleans, taken from the New Orleans Bulletin of the 26th June and Ist July, is a full comment upon the vile insinuations of your correspondent, and places his character for truth in a light which no contrasts of mine can improve. VINDEX. {Extracts of N. O. Commercial Bulletin } June 25,—It ia understood that the nomination of Thos. Barrett, Eq, to be Collector of this port, was confirmed by the Senate on the night of the 15th. The appointment, we are sure, will give wnqualified satisfaction.

The Officeholders—The Next Presidency—The Pre- sident—-Mr. Calhoun — Annexati.n — Senator Bagby and the Letter Writers. Gen. J. G. Bennerr— Tt is the glory of a strong man to exercise his muscular superiority with charitable discretion ano forbearance ; and such is the governing sentiment of your correspondent when he sits down to the review of the current events of the day, and the de- linquences of men officially and unofficially. But of all the miserable, spintless, trembling sub- servients of power—there are none on the “ face of the round earth” so extremely miserable, spiritless and tremulous, as the subordinates in the Execu- tive Departments at Washington There 1s scarce @ man among them, at this juncture of our political history, who can be made to confess that he be- lieves Clay to be about 67 years of age—or that James K. Polk is ne statesman—or that Mr. Tyler is a singular politician. If they express themselves for either-Polk or Clay, they are in danger of im- mediate excommunica‘ion ; and if they pronounce their opinion fearless of. this result, the chances of a_ perspective discharge are not to be chalienged. Their mouths sre sewed up. Asking one lately, heretofore soinething of « politician, whether he wasa Whig, Democrat, or Tyler man, he answer- ed: ‘* Neither, sir, Lama clerk in the Treasury Department.” i e would admonish these subordinates to make the most of their time The Presidential election, unless Mr. Tyler’s luck should surpass the populari- ty of either of the other candidates, will bring you, gentlemen, to an official liquidation and settlement with Uncle Sam.

In fine, the “tag rag and bobtail” of the administration will be ejected from and after the fourth of March next, whether Polk or Clay be the President. Ic is still talked of as probable that their may be an extra convention of Congress on the reiurn of President Tyler Mr. Calhoun, it is said, is en- gaged in more comprehensive arrangements for securing the immediate and peaceable admission of the “Lone Star.” Gov.

(Correspondence of the Herald.) Burrato, July 16, 1844. Market for Breadstuffs—Sour Flowr and the Crops —Losses and the Weather. Since my last letter to you, the weather has been much warmer than the previous week, and our “speculators” find, to their astonishment, a large amount of flour seriously affected by the change ; the most of the flour held here having been manu- tactured a long time, besides being exposed upon the decks of vessels and otherwise, proves to have a sprinkling of “sour.” The extent, of course, is not known as yet ; but it is seriously apprehended by many, that a large proportion of the quantity which isin tramsitw and in store will prove bad. Should this prove true, the actual loss on the article of flour will be much above my former estimate. Should there prove to be a large amount soured, in consequence of having been manufactured west of the lakes, together with the additional exposure occasioned by transportation, will it not be a lesson for future operations, and be the means of bringing to this State a much larger amount of wheat to be manufactured and sent to market, not only fresh, but in much better packages than it is possible for far western millers to do? For my part, | think most of the dealers will in future be compelled to take such a course, in'order to save themselves from entire ruin, ‘laking it for granted that our operations in future will be conducted on such principles, will it not advance the great milling business already so largely entered into at this point, Lockport, Rochester,” Seneca Falls, and many other places of note in this State? Most as- suredly it will. Wheat may be transported from any ports west of this for a less sum than the same weight of flour ; and there is but a very little dif- qerenee in favor of flour from this to Albany by canal. Western New York may now be sald,to be in the midst of her harvest, and if ihe weather proves fa- vorable the wheat must be very abundant, and of good quality. Other fields are not as forward and promising, but on the whole, farmers will not have vecasion to complain of a tair return for their toils. Now, if they could obtain fuir rates for their crops without being shaved and gouged out of one halt of it by our modern “‘Shylocks,” self-styled ‘Bro- kers,” how much better it would be for them and the mechanics, who are large consumers, and have to pay the diflerence between the price paid by the ‘* Broker” to the farmers, who, in order to pay such speculative prices, have to charge so much the more for their services and fabrics The weather last night and t morning has been very rainy, and from preseut appearances we shall have a heavy freshet, which, it it contisues long, will affect tne harvest. Our ‘* Brokers,” who have the article on hand, are making up their minds that, unless something transpires which will injure the new crop, they are elected for a prett handsome loss on bread stufls. Pork, hams, lard, and other kinds of provisions, continue to arrive in abundance, and unless you can persuade “Noah” and his “tribe” to fall to and help consume what we have on hand, there must be aheavy loss for some to sustain on land “whales.” Yours, Juntus.

The story put forth bya paper of this city that the cashier of the Stamford Bank was a defaulter, and had absconded, is entirely false. Mr. Hill is eua visit to his friends in Troy, having left the bank on the Ist of June. The bank holds bonds of individuals to the amount o¢ $30,000, and other securities mounting to $12,000, to cover any deficiency that may appear on the settlement of the cashier’s accounts. By the arrival of the steamship Hibernia at Boston, we have advices from Liverpool to the 4th inst. The ac. counts ere of a very favorable nature, both as regards the money and cotton markets. ‘The Foreign Exchanges of Great Britain remain at present belew par, and from the present indications of trade, and the appearance of the crops, we should jndge the rates would not advance sufficient to require exports of bullion. The amount of exchange in the market de- pends in some degree on the quantity of money. Any contraction of the circulation will act, of course, upon credit, and bills of exchange being en important form of credit, will consequently feel the effect of the contraction. The foreign trade of Great Britain, when confined to its proper channels, very seldom allows a balance to up against the country, as the importation of any article of luxury, er for speculation, can cease almost the instant the exports cannot keep the balance in favor. But when the importations cannot be controlled ; when the neces. saries of life have to be purchased of foreign countries, in consequence of short crops at nome, the balanc trade becomes reversed, and 4 drain of bullion cannot be prevented. The quoted rate for foreign exchanges in the London market cannot always be considered evidence of the state of the toreign trade, or how the balance stands. ‘The Bank of England has repeatedly shipped bullion to the Continent for the purpose of effecting exchanges and for the purpose of drawing at high rates. Fluctuations in foreign exchanges in Great Britain have also been caused by the Mint regulations making gold alone a legal tender. These fluctuations would be greater, but for the monthly reports made by the Bank of England, which keep the commercial classes constantly informed ofthe state of the bank, the supply of bullion,and the ability to stand a drain. All these things govern the movewents of the commercial classes and enables them to not only regulate trade ac- cordingly, but to regulate the rates for bills of exchange in the market. The monetary system of Great Britain is confined to more general laws than the banking system of this country, and the effects of expansions or contrac- tions in the currency are more immediately felt; there is, therefore, a better control of the movements of trade and a greater uniformity, It is hardly possible for a drain of bullion from the Bank of England to take place, unless the crops arejunusually short. ‘We annex the recent quotations for foreign exchange in London.

On this side of the water, the whole arrangement, if the operations in exchange here can be so called, is on anentirely different plan. Our foreign trade is subject to very great fluctuations. Our importations vary frum one year to another many mil- lions of dollars, The annexed little table will show to what extent the imports into this conntry fluctuate:— Vatue or Imponis into tHe Unitep Stat: $198,118,311 1838, 126,521,332 1839, 189,980,035 1842, 100,162,087 These great variations in the value of imports, frem year to year must naturally cause very great fluctuations in exchanges. Our exports are very regular, varying but small amounts from one year to anether, and in only one year out of the above six was the balance of trade in our favor and then—1842 but a few thousand dol- lars.* The balance of trade being against us, specie went forward annually in large amounts. During the years of large importations, exchange was very low, not- withstanding the great balance against us on the imports ant CApUIte UF untwhemdiee, im somecquomes of the im mense sales of stocks in London, against which bills were freely drawn, and the rates kept down. From 1840 to 1844 the imports into this country were smaller than the exports, consequently the balance of trade has been in,our favor, and exchange, as will be seen from the fol lowing table, has since been below a specie point :— Quotations ron Stentino Bitts 1x New Yorx. 1836 939. 1839. 1841. 1843. 1846. July,... 7407} 74u8 Sha? =u] 4a} Df It will be seen that sterling exchange is higher now than it has been in July, in either of the years herein given. The balance of trade is now against us. The im- porta thus far have been much larger than the exports, and exchange rules high. In consequence of the credit that recent movements inthe cotton market have thrown over cotton bills, there are very few prime bills in the market, and they rule just below aspecie point. Par- ties engaged in stock operations, in this market, are making great efferts to keep exchange below the specie stondard. ‘They even goso far as to buy up bills of good drawers and sell them at a loss, to prevent specie going forward and the panic that would follow such a move. ment. Sh pments of specie to any great extent would have a very serious effecton the stock market, and large holders of stocks are shrewd enough to make sacrifices to keep down quotations for exchange. From present ap- pearances we donot see how it is possible to prevent specie from going forward. All the efforts of stock specu- lators cannot stay the tide from setting the precious metals towards Europe. Weare net only indebted to foreign nations for their manufactures, but large amounts of stocks have been sold in this country on foreign account ; besides which, the semi-annual dividends on stocks held abroad, adds millions to our indebtedness. The tables are turned—instead of selling our stocks to foreigners, they are constantly returning the stocks purchased of us years ago, for sale, the payment for which must be made in specie or its equivalent. We do not see any change in the quotations for Ameri- can stocks in London. The operations are very limited. TATIONS FOR American Stocks in Lonpon, sa May \8. June3.

The principal subject agitating the financial circles of London was the new bank bill. Those most interested in the features of the new bill are the joint stock Bank Co, panies. The commercial and producing classes seem to take but little interest in the plan proposed by the Pre. mier, or in its probable effects on their departments. The private and Joint stock banks have at last succeeded in in- ducing Sir Robert Peel to make the annexed alterations in his original plan :— 1. That instead of the averages of the two years as allv proposed, the maximum of the fuiure circula ali be regulated by the average of the circulation the three months, February, March and April, previous to the announcement of the measure to parlia- mi ent 2. That the future maximum shall be taken upon a menthly, instead of a weekly average, sothat if a benk should exceed its limits in one week, itmay reduce it in the following weeks . 8. That the word “place” in clause 13, be omitted, so ns 0 allow banks to open new branches, provided they do sot exceed the fixed amount of their circulation 4. That the act shall not come into operation, as far as ountry bankers are concerned, until the 2th October he persod whenthe bankers’ annual licences are renewed, ‘The joint stock banks urged that when a union took lace between two joint stock banks or # joint stock bank ind aprivate bank, the united bank might issue to the mount of their previous operations. The Minister sbjected to this proposal on the ground that the whole ireulation of the kingdom might fall into the hands of a few large companies. The system appears to be us near se es eee . perfect as it can be made. It now only requires a precti cal demonétration. It can be proved only by practice. ‘The whole plam does: not go into’ operation st once. As different purts go into operstion at different times, we an. nex a report showing the dates of the several opere vision of the departments of the Benk of Eng- lace “ upon the 3lst day of 4 may demand notes for per ounce, “from and after the 3!at day of Aug 3 Bank of England exempt from stamp after Sist August, 1544.” num from the same date 4.

Time only will determine the effect it may have on the commercial prosperity of Great Britain and her dependencies. It is beyond the power of man to prophecy the effects of an important measure like this, and its adopticn must naturally unsettle commercial affairs for « time—perhaps during its existence.
