On the previous day M. de Lacour went to Bujukdere, in the Heron steamer, to take leave of the Rassian Ambassador. The Prince landed from his steamer to receive him at the Ruseian palace. The reception given to the Freuch Am- Dassador was most gracious, aud when he left, the Priace accompanied him as far as the landing place. Lord Red- cliffe, who, it was said had bad rather warm alterca- tion with the Prince. did not pay him any visit. These incidents were much talked of at Constantinople. a strong movement in public opinion was apparent at Con- stantipople in favor of the Sul'an, not only among the Turks, but also among the Greeks, who appear to fear the protectorate of Russia much more than the suzecainty of the Ottomans.” Russia and the Earopean Coalition.

Bat, while we feel it incumbent on this country to con- sider the contingencies which may arise—and the position of Great Britain in the world docs not allow ber to view events of such magnitude with indifference—we certainly do not share in the flerce and offensive spirit manifested on this occasion by the principal organ of the Freach iment inthis country.

The watchman’s alarum consists ef a hollowed piece of wocd, with a handle, aud by strilimg on it with a.tick, @ sound is produced sufficiently loud to arouse the nearest guardian of the night. The fuger-warmiag furnace serves the purpose of gloves, which ave Ut worm se China, but it io of course only put in requisition in cold weather, and in the mortbern parts of the country. whole collection is contributed by Mr. Hewett, of church street, London, and though it presents » few jects that most Euglish visitors are not familiac ‘even to them it wi ot become a source of interest, af ‘attar - ing an immediate means of comparison with the produc tious from Japan. Of porcelain manufactures the Japanese collection con- tains nothing to compare with those of China ll the ee articles are limited to a few tea cups, which, 10 wever, without exhibiting any elaborats finish or orua- ment, show. by the quality of the ware and the dalicacy of its substance, that the Japanese have attained great rfection in theart. The beautiful Chinese carvings in vory and sandal-wood have nothing to rival them in the Japanese collection, which does not boast of a single artisle of the kind. The japanned cabinets, chests, and tables of the Chinese are’mueh more richly ioleid and decora- ted; and their gauze lanterns are also more highly fin. ished than the oiled paper lanterns of Japan, distended with hoops of spliced bambso. On comparing’all the or- namental works of the two countries, a muck higher of finish, accompanied with greater taste for decorations, appears in those of Chins; whilst the simpler taste of the Ja; @ presents at the same time greater perfection in all works of utility. Their maps are quite remarkable for exhibiting, in many instances, bird’s- oie vi of the count ae eres ieee] inciple ictorial surveying which was rr ‘to Eng. Iaod by Mr. Horner, the artist of tue Panorama. of Los. don, at the Colosseum. The Japanese appear to havea notion of pers ive, of which the Chinese artists have no ides; acc: dingly, in the bird’s-eye views, the perspective effects are manag though certain ps between the middle distance set us ack | round ve much to the imagination to supply. A map of Japan bears evidence of European light having been thrown on this branch of their acquirements, for the points of the compass are roughly depicted in the manner of our maps with a flewr-de lis, or something like it, at the cardinal In dra and modelling the human figure also, the specimens from — show less deformity and much more spirited execution than the grotesque caricatures of the Chinese.

The stock is destined to touch much lower prices. ‘The effect, thus far, has been comparatively moderate to what it will be when the public fully realize the true po- sition of the company’s affairs. It will be years before the payment of dividends is resumed. It is possible another dividend may never be paid. We are not disposed to heap coals of fire upon the directors’ heads, for curses both loud and deep will fall vpon them from the peor deluded stockholders, many of whom depend upon the income anticipated from this investment to provide for their daily bread. It would be very diffieult t6 convince the public that the mamagement have not availed themselves cf the knowledge they pos- sessed relative to the dividend, to not only sell their own stock, but to place themselves in a position to be largely benefitted by the depreciation in the market-value of shares upon the official announcement that no dividend would be declared.

Those who do not see any indications of an approaching revolution, think that it is about time another crisis should be upon ue, Many have been in the habit of antictpating periodical revulsions, and on that account they think it is about time we should have Another. Others, who look more closely into the matter, exhibit considerable anxiety relative to the future, ia consequence of the steady expansion which has for seve- ral years being going on in publis and private credits. The numerous projects which have from time to time. been put upon the market, and the immense amount of ‘eapital which they have absorbed, induce the more cau- tious to suppose that we are now moving upon sound, dangerous surface, and must, before the lapse of many months, be brought up suddenly with a tre- mendous crash. These fears and anxieties are natural enough, and we are not disposed to make light of them. ‘The effect is rather of a favorable character than other- wise, and we are more in favor of frequent moderate checks than any sudden, disastrous withdrawal of public confidence. We have had, itis true, a period of about nix years of great commercial prosperity; we have, within that time, enormously extended our: system of internal improvements, we have projected and oompleted lines of steamships extending across all the great oceans, and have constructed a fleet of clipper ships, surpassing in number the navy of Great Britain. We have enlarged and improved our cities, and have filled them with splen- did palaces and magnificent storehouses. Our great staple products haye kept pace with the progress of other things, and consumption is fully up to the supply. Amidst all this, prices for the necessaries of life have pre- serveda uniformity unusual in times of prosperity and extravagance. Luxuries have become more expensive, | and those who have been disposed to indulge have had to pay well for it, The power to live within moderate means has, however, existed throughout, and the poorer classes have not been obliged to go without any of these ordinary comforts. In this particular, at least, the present state of things differs materially from those periods when speculation was rampant and production appeared to have been lost sight of entirely. The movement now is natural and real; then it was artificial. It was at the time speculative now it is bona fide and legitimate. The effect is altogether different,snd the result will differ materially from what is generally anticipated. In former times the basis of uy expansion was paper, now it is something more substantial. Then speculations took hold of vision- ary things, now it tends to the developement of our most valuable resources. The great speculative movements in past years have been confined principally to unproductive kinds of property, to real estate, or lots located no one knew where. Beautifully engraved_maps were consulted to learn the situation of lots which had never before been heard of, and capital sud credit wore lavished upon prop- erty which, in itself, had no actual value. All was un- real, artificial, a bubble. Now we are working upon a different foundation and upon different principles, and the result must, as @ natural consequence, be entirely differ- ent. Every great interest of the country is at present in sound and healthy state. Production has not been ar- rested, but, on the contrary, is going om more vigorously than ever, and prices for all our great staples are but moderately remunerative. This is favorable for the con- suming clasces, and preserves o healthy state of these interests, The basis of prices is gold and silver, and so long as that is the regulator we shall not be subject to those violent changes and great extremes which have heretofore been so disastrous. So long as the sonrnas of all national prosperity .cuam sound, we may rest assured that no general revulsion can occur. So long as the in- dustrial interests of the country continue healthy, so long our prosperity will be permanent. We know of no speculative movement on this side of the Atlantic which has yet reached an slarming extent. There has been no important inflation of prices; demand and supply are pretty evenly balanced, and we have close- ly scanned the fimancial and commercis! horison for the first indication of an approaching revulsion or revolution in our affairs. The first thing we naturally look to, for the purpose of seeing what the future is likely to bring forth, is the complexion of our banks. They are a sort of indicators of the effect of the present state of things upon the future. We therefore annex a statement show- ing the movement in the leading departments of our banking institutions in each, of the past nineteen years:— Banxine Movement ix THe Unrrep Srares, z 9 <7 3? § ge # : } ‘ : i : plea hebiniiiien 71,957,299 26,641,788 704 231 250,327 365,163,834 81.494.734 43,937,625 TIS 251,875,292 457,506,080 106,711,314 40,019,504 1837 788 290,772,091 625,115,702 115,409,571 37,915,340 1838. 829 317.696,778 485,631,687 93,994,618 35,184,112 1839, 240 132,512 492,278,015 108,125,188 45,182,673 140. 907 629,227 482,896,523 91,212,577 Pret td 1841 Ted SIS O06 060 396,487,083 78.GMGI $4,815,958 164 260,171,797 323,967,500 59,412,608 23,440,423 183 601 228,861,948 254,544,987 047,250 33 515,806 1844 696, ito 264,906,814 49 896,269 Tae. 1 or Isesocam a tiawoe Boies 17 715 208,072,622 Pre | 35, 135,316 1848, 751 204, 175 344,476, 46,369,765 1851 71 227,469,074 406, 4 48,671,198 1882. 940 310,685,211 486,857,2 51,683,974 allthere has not been such an enormous expansion as is generally supposed. It shows that in 1852 the line of diseounts was less than in 1836, sixteen years before. That capital and circulation were larger, but by no means no large as they should have been im view of the immense increase in the commercial operations of the country, our increase in population, and the great addition to the amount of property created withim that period. On the other hand, the expansion in private credits has been very great, which is not showa by bank returns. The metallic currency of the country has largely increased in volume, and the circulating medium is much more valuable than it used to be. The banks of several States in the Union have, within the past three years, been prohibited by special acts of the Legislature from issuing or circulatirg bills. below the denomination of five dol- lars, which has called into active circulation very large amount of gold and silver. This has reduced the power of banks in inflnoncing prices by contracting or expanding the paper currency. The free banking aw is rapidly extending, and ultimately every State n the Union will have adopted it. This has strengthen- ed the banking dystem,; and secured the safety of bill holders. We shall not then hear so often of bank explo- sions, and no arsets. In 1887 the banks suspended upon an expansion, and bill holders hed no redress. The banks took caro of themselves, and when they got ready resumed. They cannot do so now, and they will be more careful in tholr movements. Everything connected with the finances of the country isin @ sound condition, and we ree no indications of any immediate change. It is possible that in some rections, the ostablishment of new banks may have proceeded too rapidly, and there may have been at times danger of collapses, but so far the evils have corrected themselves, without any ruinous re- actions. The principle upon which the free banking system is based, being good, we cannot get far out of the way. At allevents, so far it hgs worked well, and we have a vast deal of faith and confidence in it Since 1847, the coinage of the Mint of the United States and its branches has been upwards of twa hundred mil- lions of doliars, From the 1st of January, 1848, to the Ist of January, 1853, the official value was ay annexed.— Comace ov eux Unrern Srares Mint ann Buanonss. l.

The ceipts of California gold at the U. 8.

Since Loi, 0,574 we bed been large imperters and exporters of the prosioat: metals, and it would not be far out of the way tocstimate an offset of experts by tmporte during that time, This ‘would leave us the whole of our Califernia supplies. O ‘this immense amount the banks have received oaly abou three millions, The rest has passed inte the hands of the people, who use it in the daily operation of trate. This has materially checked the issue of paper by the banks, and kept them within proper limits. The cur- rency of the country at large never was better than at this moment, and it is likely to continue sound. Weare daily adding to our supply of specie, and the basis of redit is, therefore, daily becoming more substsutial. ‘The esly unfavorable feature that we have noticed in the present fivancial movement, is the disposition ex- hibited to increase our indebtedmess abroad, and what- ever difficulty may grow out of the present expansies of public credit will origimate in this. The Bank of England has already taken steps to arrest the negotiation of bends for foreign enterprises, and we have no doubt mere strig. gent measures will be adopted, if those enforced fati. We have within the past three years found markets in Eag- land for full one hundred millions of rallroad bonds, State bonds, &c., and the saleof our securities abroad is still going on, An immense amount of English cspital has been invested on the Continent, in the projects of the day, and the government of the Bank of England have made several attempts to puts stop to it. By raising the rate of interest from time to time they may secom- Plish the object in view, but it is excedingly doubifal. Capital is so abundant in all parts of the world thet the great banking institutions ef Europe and America do mot exert so much influence upom financial affairs, as in times past, and their movements are not, therefor e, se important. We have not so much te fear from a cessation of negotiations for loans, or any sudden check to the sales of our Public securities abroad, ag reaction in the public mind,and the loss of that confidence which has been of so much service to our pub- te works. We can do very well with what we have, but ‘we could not well part with much of the capital invested here. Ifanything should eccur om the other side te com” pel holders of our securities to realize, and large quanti- ties be sent heme for that purpose, we should find our- selves in a very unpleasant position. There may be daa- ger of ti:is, and it would be well enough to provide against such a contingency. We know of nothing that can, in the ordinary course of events, occur on this side to de- stroy or injure our public or private credit abroad, but causes originating in England or on the contineat, may force back upon us millions upon millions of our stocks for sale, the proceeds of which would be required im gold and silver. It may be well enough to be prepared fer this.
