You cannot change that; the eae : ein modify that situation. Weare ‘sellers Prewipsnt—I wish to refer to what tome the important point in the observation of Eichthal to M. Percire. It bas been said that when the rate of in- terst rises in England the consequence is this: the French capitalist employs the securities he has dis- py or that be can procure, in buying bills on Lon- because he can thereby get a security which gives nim gov co A results from tigi that the capital which ought to be paid by England is retained in France; there is an Pt cred of three months on her éenéances, an an adjournment which is determined by the elevation of the rate of ae ‘by the profit resulting therefrom. On this point Pereire and M. d’Eichthal are in accord, M. Pereire, going further, says when a banker is in presence of such an operation and of bills produci pes eed Per cent, he sells his deben- tures, utilizes his creates resources by means of which he can procure are rotitable paper. @’Eichthal says: ete is thus U the resources in the country are rendered rarer. You have utilized your money to buy bills on London; you have discounted your securities, seld your debentures, demanded Ten wal; what ‘is the result? As you ‘ha ail these resources from the Bank of France, which 18 the definitive reservoir, it comes to pass that the Bank, which has co-operated by means of advances in the ac- quisition of bills on heft finds ata given moment at there is a disproportion between its till and its issues; and if it did not raise its discount gradually, it would bo obliged to do so suddenly, and pee that suddenness disturb the quietude and derange bribe orp: of com- sae a ‘hat have you to gay to objection, M. reire M.

The Bank of England has been blamed ere for going too fast; but 1 can declare that all men whe are acquainted with basinest in England reproach the bank, not with acting too quickty, but with not act- ing quickly enou I repeat that M. Pereire has pre- ented the situation in the clearest and most convincing terms for all reflecting men. M. Ei Pexae—You have too much experience of banking business to maintain that when English com- merce is a debtor to foreign countries for very large sums, an elevation of the exchange on London i# to be feared at Paris, It is the con that takes place. If England owes « great deal for the cotton, wool, wheat rnd cattle sho iinporta, that must augment the number of the bills of exchauge drawn on her, Those bills. ar- riving at Paris in larger quancities mut bring do exhange, and not mae it rie. Now, the fall of the x change prevents the sending away Of gold. M. Pastre—Do you believe that the exchange plays the part you indicate? For my part, | think that the exchange i# pot at all a detemining element. In India the interest is fourteen to fifteen per cent. The ex- change indicates a very trifling profit; but as the dis- at fourteen and filteea per cent, masses, not of , but of silver, are sent to India M.

If there be a di prence of two yer cent i that w@ to say, one-half per cent for three months, (that is not of a nature to pre- went ‘he operation. What can ft matter to M.

He was taken to the officer indicated, told the latter he wanted to eee the Commanding General, and was at once, under escort of an orderly, sent to General Miles’ headquarters. It was very carly and the General was not up yet. For two hours he remained inside the fort, wa'ked ee where he pleased and taiked with those talk with him. It soon became evident that be had Jeff.

The announcement of the arrest of Antoine Ganter created the most intense excitement throughout the city. The news spread like wildfire, and vengeance against the prisoner was uttered on every side.

Among the visitors in town is the Earl of Ab rdeen, nephew of the Governor of the province, He has recently succeeded to his title and ostates, and is now travelling for pleasure; but he seems to seek that pleasure under the most curious circumstances. Last Saturday the ship Pomona arnved at St, John after a very rough passage of rixty days from Liverpool or London. On her arrival in the harbor a number of distinguished genticmen weat on board to meot the Fart of Aberdees, who, they were infurmed by letters, was a passe; Their inquiries of the captain as to the pres- ence of sich a distinguished compagnon di were of course met with @ lvok of astonishment; but they were not long in discovering hie lordsiip among the sailors in the fore-hold, where he was dividing up his clothes among and i senting fold pieces v9 each of his late comrades, Having bid thm a most affectionate far-wilt he jo'ned the party who came in quest of him, went ashore, camo up here in the horri- bie mail coach 1n the most unassuming manuer, and is now the guest of his uncle at the Goverument House. When a few days out the Pomona was compelled by stress of weather to pul back to Queenstown, when the Ear! humbly entreated the captain lo be put ashore, But the captain held him to his articies of shipment, and his lordship was forced to verve out his time as @ | allor for sixty days.

MR. JENCKES’ BANKRUPT BILL. A paragraph in the Washington column of the Time to-day charges us with injustice towards Mr. Jenckes, of Bankrupt bill notoriety, and Congressman Conkling, one of the ablest and most benorable lawyers of the REMOVALS, — House, with undignified trickery, The paragraph pene a YIRSON, STILES & WOOLSEY HAVE REMOVED deserves explanation. When Mr. Jenckes’ Bankrupt ee ae Petar ced Woten fireane, “fated States | bill was dofeated in the House there waa no topic left for the Special Committee on Bankrupt Law, of which Mr. Jenckes was chairman, and that com- mittee would have expired naturally. Mr. Conkling, ‘& warm personal friend of Mr. Jenckes, and an eamest worker for some kind of « bank- Tupt law, introduced the first bill he could lay hie hands on for the purpose of keeping the committee alive, Paving previously failed in an effort to secure re- consideration of the vote by which the bill was Jost. Being pressed for time Mr. Conkling neither knew nor cared which particular copy of the many bankrupt bills he used. A piece of blank paper with the proper head. ing would bave answered the same purpose, since the bankrupt bill which will pass is yet to be framed. Ail lawyers of the House entertain pretty mach the same general ideas about a bankrupt law; but there te great diversity of opinion about what is called the machinery of the law, Really Mr. Conkling did the committes » good turn by the introduction of a bill, and it is sheer idiocy to suppose, as the Times’ paragraph has it, that ho did it with a view to steal Jenckes’ thunder, Mr. Jenckes and others will probably report another bill soon, and the close vote on the last demonstrates that the new one will pass if they are careful to remove some of the ob- jections shown in the old one. At the proper time Mr. Conkling will move as a substitute some carefully pre- pared and proper bill for the one referred to the com- mittes, on his motion.

The city darkies have hold mectings and protened agalost the appearance of any square-trotting contrabands in the procession.

Mr. Schenck's Army bill came up for d\cuseion to-day im the House. The prospects are that it will recoive a severe and thorough handling. There are many objec- tionable features in the bill, notwithstanding it er- bodies some of the views of the Lieutenant General, the Secretary of War and other high officials A much longer time than at dret supposed will be required to discuss the bill, notwithstanding members are limited to tenstaipute speeches on each section. PHACEFUL DISPOSITION OF THE SIOUX CHIRYR. The Bureau of Indian Affairs has just received a tele- gram from Colonel E. B. Taylor, at Fort Laramie, giving interesting mformation relative to the Sioux Indians, Red Cloud and Spotted Tail are assembling their bands on the North Fork of the Cheyenne river, called the Belle Fouche. Some Minnie Congdon and Ogailaia young men tried to get a war party, but were quickly suppressed by Red Cloud and other chiefs, who killed their horses and cut up their lodges. This the Colonel considers important, as establishing the power and authority of the chiefs. He had feared there would be some trouble with the young men, and has often warned the chiefs to be careful and put down as once any signs of hostility. SENATE. Wasnixetos, April 12, 1806.
