Disasters like these cannot arise {rom secondary canses. Calamities 80 humerous cannot be the result of the ruin ef a few indi- Viduals, A crisis, which és extending its effects over both hemispheres, is evidently the produet of more general causes, which it is easy to trace and te appreciate, and the existence of which it would be absurd to deny. Sober minds, which have closely studied this movement, find these causes in the exorbitant developement of the industry and commerce of the American nation, in the in considerate ardor of speculation, and lastly in the general condition, manners and social habits of the American people. In France there is one Dranch of study which is geme- rally neglected—we mean the investigation of the political and social life of foreign nations. is so much the ease that, when a serious crisis, a grave monetary perturba tion occurs, like that which is not only exereising a roinous inftaenge in America, but in other countries, people are quite astonished at the fact; and, as it has not been foreseen, are €s wnable to avoid and to parry its consequences, as to ex- plain it. In the relative ignoranee which pwevails as to the habits of the nation in question, our people are apt to compare the situation, ananners and char of other nations with their own. They judge them according to their own modes of life, and arrive not ot n errone ous conclusion, whicb, after all, is but a secondary point, but what ig of much jreater consequence, they conceive exaggerated apprehensions, which sometimes bring about disasters which they would not otherwise have to fear; the cunditions of social and political existence in the United States are entirely different from ours, and when we are curtly informed that the Americans are a free people and that cach citizen enjoys these various rights of which wo are deprived, tho particular facts engendered by this gene- ralcondition are not further examined into, and withor entering more thoroughly into the mater the pretend benefits of that liberty are boastingly pointed out and used [as the democratical French press never fait to use them} as arguments in fayor of ideas which are but or- ganized disorder. In the United States, for exampte, there is no monopoly. Every citizen is free to engage in the sort of ocenpation which suits him, in whatever industry he may deem pro- fitable, and without any sort of obligation or condition in any enterprise that pleases him. At first sight this state of things is somewhat seducing to the imagination, and the most extravagant praises ai lavished on it by an ignorant and not overscrupulous op- position party Aud as far as the small trades or private industries ar concerned, there are but few inconveniencies attending it. But the case is different as regards the great public works, enterprises of general usefniness, or vast fiuancial estab- lishments whieh interest a whole pation. In New York, Boston, Philadelphia, &e., there exists no national bank which, regulated by the Slate, is able to furnish any solid guarantees, such as the Bank of France offers. The banks, even the most important, are mere private’ enterprises, subject to the fluctuations of affairs, the daily chances of trade, and the hazards of the most imprudent speculations. In regard to stock exchange transactions, they have taken such a developement that stockjobbing is not a legitimate: pursuit, based, as im France, on serious opera- tions which offers certain guaranties of solvency. On the New York Exchange it is quite common to see individuals without either money or credit, without a position—in a word, without the least guarantee, enter into operations which would be everywhere else qualified as fraudulent, and of which honest people are continually the victims. In fue, to quote an example still more striking from this condition of things we witness in America, a fact whieb appears ip the last degree strange to us, that © ybody may at his pleasure build a railroad, establish, by meuwne of me, we public work of com. munication from ene point to another, introduce a new line in competition with another already established, re- duce the fares for transport to such a point that the pro- duce will not cover @ tenth part of the exponges, and ron the line bankrupt after having eaten up the capital of the shares already paid in, or mortgaged for paying the costs ‘of the construction of the road. From such a state of things result—first, the ruin of the shareholders, the most shameless administrative disorder, aconstant doubt av to the security of enterprises, even in the case of those which are reputed the best, and a general want of confidence in the situation of affairs, and ip the solvency of the best accredited If vo the causes of disturbance bo added a commerce in pablic paper at a deplorably reduced value, and without any endorsement on the part of the seller, it will be under- stood how easily a crisis may arise ag soon as any abnor- uy fact occurs to provoke it, We know as weil as any what may be eaid or has been said of the ress of the American lo, of that giant people who have so rapidly advanced in the road of civilization, ‘and laid, scarcely a century ago, the groundwork of a greatness and = material perity unknown t the civilized nations of the Yorid.

We shall not carry our parallel further; we have sul, ciently indicated the general canses which elicit our cen eure of what ie going on in the United States, in com parison with what is done here. We have Dat a few words more toadd. It i imposible for anybody to foresee at the prevent moment to what degree the American crisis and the condition of affairs in London will aifect French commerce; but it ts equally impossible for us not to have full confidence in our country, even in presence of these seriour complications. French commerce, although affected by American fotlies, will meet all ite necessities, and, without bending, weather the storm which threatens it. 1 has witnessed many others, and a catastrophe like that of February would not have been as promp' roughly encountered and remedied ja the it was in France. We should never, however, forget that the United States is a republic. [Translated from *% Journal du Havre of vt, ‘21 for the lew York Herald.) The ratstng of the rose of discount by the Bante of Rag land, which, ceeinning with that institution, unfortunately extends in its consequences to the Bank of France, | imma for ita cause, or rather for ite protxt, the crisis in the United States, it becomes necessary for us to embrace the two subjects under one common view and consideration. Let as, therefore, go back to the origin of the American crisis in order to ascertain ite true aoe.

To curry jans these «peulators threw into the market an enormoim quantity ofthe caitstauding boods and bills of thoae companies which appeared to them least able to protect themeelves, while at the same time they did all in their power to ruin their credit by unfavorable reports of every kind.

In consequence of the financial crisis, prices im every kind of mevchandiae have fallen im New York, at the present moment, as much as 30 or 40 por cent. In this state of affairs, those English hanses in New York which have not been hurt by the erisia, and whieh asec of disposable funda, have taken advantage of the condition of things to realize consuerable profites. It will. be remembered that at the crisis of 184849 certain English speculators (who, however, we are bound to say, were quite in @ legitimate line of action, and are not to he Dlamed for their proceedings) set themselves to work te visit our manufactories here im France, and to buy up at the low rates which ruled in consequence of the crisis a large quantity of our manufactured goods. Their object was to make « good profit, whether at home or in forage countries, by the re-sale, Weil, then, something of theeame kind is going ou at the present moment, ia respect to the United States American cotton, European silks, and 'y cortof European goods are now being brought to the hammer, and are being sot at great sacrifices in the United States. Now the effect of ali this will be to caso Fnghsb capital to pass ever to the United States, to make purebases under such cirentinstances, ‘The Bank of England, op the alleghd pretence of protec ting herself agninst this immense withdrawal of specia from England for speculative purchases in Ame rica has raised her rates of discount in r succession to seven, and at last to eight per But it is pretty evident that even this last high rate of interest will not bo sufficient to keep off th any more than seven per cent. It will still pay to buy goods at New York sold by auction at a sacrifice by the sellers of 36 and 49 por ceni. The Bank of Franee also has found herself equally obliged to pursue the samo course as the Bank of England But sbe is not quite convinced that the pursuing of thin course will have the desired effect. We here present to our readers evidence of the fact that such is her view of the case, It is this:—-A few days back, as we have been credibly informed, the bank haying previously made up its mind on the subject, refused to discounta great number of notes sent in for that purpose, signed by several Englishmen, and whieh it was suspected were wholly of « epecuiative character. Now it seems to us that thia dis crimivating course in discounting is much more reasonable than that of raising the rate of discount upon everybody without distinction. For in general, whatever may be the rate of discount, the excitement of gain and the fear of = further rise will produce an increased and feverish com- petition for bank accommodations, Ag goon as ever the rate of discount rose at the Bank of France to 6),f., the apprehension of a further and immediate augmentation, which was prognesticated by every one, led to the offering of an increased quantity of paper for discount every day. Is it then to be believed that raising the rate will check the competition? No, by no means. Seven and seven and a balf only prepare the way for eight and eight and a half, and the consequence is, that everybody rushes forward to obtain accommodation before another increase shall be made of the existing rate. ‘Such a course as this inflicts a severe blow upon trade and commerce. Especially 80, because this increase af the rate generally is made at trying times, and at that pe- riod of the year when the retail dealers are preparing to lay in their stock of goods for the approaching winter But as we have already expressed our views upon this subject, rather than be guilty of tautology, we prefer to lay before our readers the following forcible and able re. marks of one of our subscribers, and which haye beew addressed to us. He says:— “When J saw yesterday moruing that (he Bank of France continued its discounts at 63 per cent, notwith- standing the fact that the Bank of England had the day before raised her rate of interest to8 per cent, T was lod to believe that the aystem of raising the rate of discount step by step, in order to stop the exportation of «pecie, or as it is commonly called, the traffic of the tuition mer- chants, had been finally given up and abandoned, I wae led to believe that some other plan had been discovered more moral, more pleasing, and above all, more effective in the attainment of this object. 1 inagined, at ail events that our national Bank of France, influenced by nobl scruples of conscience and by patriotic disinterestedness, ‘was desirous of putting an end to a War against mor chants, which, though profitable to her, is injurious to the commerce and industry of the country. Ever since the law was passed ‘exempting the bank from taxation on its loans and giving it a monopoly in dia- counting, every increase of the rate of interest pon dis- counts is of course greatly to her prof. When the bauk makes her discounts at the rate of 73¢ per cent she ought to increase her dividends to an amount three-fifths moro than when she discounts at five per cent, But I have been painfully disappointed in seeing thas affair amounts to puning more than a delay, or ession of twenty-four hours, and is not the result of * & wise fipanelal foresight, With grief L see that on this very morning the rate of discount has been raised to 74; per cent, and thus the m of asteeple chase after apecia is to be continued in ail its severity, to the ingary trade and commerce, and without at all’ preventing the export operations of Uie bullion dealers. me the Bank of France should raise her rates to 10 per cent she would only be following the example of the Bank. and, or perhaps setting an example to that bank. Itist ay of that institution, whenever her pockets are empty, to empty the pockets of the merchant by raising her rates of discount. That is always the exouse she makes, namely, that her pockets are empty; and this is the way ‘she takes to fill them again. is her own avowal. It, is a system of her invention, and till sho can invent a better, itis very well to follow it. Well, let her do so, and let ber pay dearer for specie than hor neighbors. This indefinite raiving of the rate of discounts is neces- sarily followed by this fatal result, viz.: -when there ia @ financial crisis among our neighbors, it transports it over here to us. Thus our industry and commerce is punished for fants which they have not committed. ‘The government of the Emperor alone can deliver the county from suffering under a Mnancial crisis which does uot really exist ia the country. and he can easily do it. It does not exist really among us, but it will be infallibly brought on and made to exist by the very measures takem to ward it off, denihi’ bbe. r sanctioned mmet An imperial decree should be afterwards by laws, commanding fs ately the forced eireulation of the bank bills, and prohibiting the bank from redeeming its bills in P cosogt ah three, four or five months to come, on the condition the bank retains specie in its vaults sufficient to cover bg redeem at the due time the emiasion of all fresh bills subsequently fanned by it. America,Germany and England are continually being laid waste by these tremendous crises. Perhaps some- times they are deserved. They may be explained, in ge- neral, as owing to extravagant, rash and large specu tive operations. , however, they arise from the effect of inevitable and overruling causes.
