TIIE monetary movements of the last few years abound in points of interest to commercial men generally, and to those whose special business it ie to des) with floating or surplus capital more partica• lerly. Their history tarnishes no with valuable data for estimating the peculiar effects produced by the improvements in locomotion, the rapid extension of trade sod consequent re-distribution of capital, and, above all, by the gold discoveries which for the last six years have introduced elements into commercial and Boanci.l calculations so new se to baffle the experience of the most astute. On the present occasion we propose merely to review the progress of Joint Stock Banking in the Metropolis, the features of which are sufficiently remarkable to merit the attention of all connected with trade and finance, and the development of which has of late made so much progress. The Loudon and Westminster, the first of the Joint Stock Banks, was founded in 1834, and was followed by the London Joint Stock and the London and Comity, in 1837, the Union in 1839, the C)mmercial in 1840, the Royal British in 1849. the City Bank and the Bank of London in 1855, and the Unity in 1866. 1 Besides these, various other Joint Stock Banks exist, bet as their operatioos aro principally connected with the sister kingdom or the colonies, we omit them as having a less immediate bearing on the points we propose to illustrate. The principle once established, it will be seen from the following table, showing the amount of capital, the profits foe the year, and the deposits on the 31st December in the respective years, that the progress of the system hes been tepid and continuous. Paid up capital. Profits. Drposits. 1814 .. 2 063,925 ~ 127.049 .. 7.984,306 1849 2,354180 181.368 .. 11 626 046 1854 .. 2,772,795 .. 444,636 .. 26,338,586 On the 31st December, 1855, the paid up capital had increased to 3,587,8051., and the deposits to 31,390,8021.; but the returns of Jane 1t358 exhibit a still more extraordinary increase. Excluding the London and County sod the Royal British, which have not yet held their meetings, the paid up capital was 3,930,0001, the profit for the half year 317,7341., and the amount of deposits 32,343,7701. This latter amount would probably be raised to nearly 38,000,0001. were the deposits of the banks who have not yet published their reports included. We have no means of knowing, eves approxL irately, how far this steady increase in the amount of deposits has affected those in the hands of private bankers, though doubtless they mast have suffered to a considerable extent; but there can be little doubt that the establishment of Joint Stook Banks has largely added to the number of persons keeping bank log accounts. The important results of this enormous aggregation of small capitals, the bulk of which would have otherwise remained nearly unproductive. will at once be evident. It is not the mere existence of capital, but its circulation in a reproduo ties form, that adds to the general wealth of a nation, and this function of distribution is per formed by banks in the most effectual manner- The managers of basks are necessarily more compe tent judges of the value of any given security than individual', especially small capitalists, can be; and banks are consequently, from their lugs trans.o. done, a sort of insurance offices for capital, spreading the inevitable risks over a vast surface, sod thereby reduoiog the ratio of risk to the capital employed to its minimum proportion,. The great addition to the public wealth, and the benefits commerce derives from the restoration of millions of idle capital to reproductive circulation, by the dis count of bills and similar advances, is not the only benefit obtained by the extension of the banking system. The depositors themselves, who would other wise receive no return for their surplus capital whilst unemployed, or who would obtain a return only at considerable rick, share largely in the profits obtained by the hanky, in addition to the economy of time and money involved in the receipt and pay ment of their bills and drafts. The Union Bank of London alone, in the year ending June 30, 1838, distributed as interest among its depositors no less a sum than 198,5941., while the profit divisible among its shareholders was 121,1121. It has now, apparently, become a settled principle to grant interest on deposit and current amounts, arid the chief difference in the practice of the Joint Stock Books is, ea to the point where the interest com• mance, on current amounts. The usual rate is 2 per Gent. on balances which have not been below 5001., and 1 per cent. on those not below 2001.; but the Unity Bank allows 2 per cent. on accounts of 3001. and upwards, and 1 per cent. on all below that &menet. The Royal British Bask was founded with a view to introduce the Scotch system into London, but probably, for the reasons we recently urged against that system, it makes but slow pro gress compared with those founded on the ordinary principles. The Unity Bank has innovated still far ther, by proposing to give the depositors, in addition to the 1 or 2 per cent. on their monthly balances one-half of the net profit., after deducting 6 per cent. on the paid op capital and the amount to be carried to the reserve fund. Although this plan offers considerable advantages to the depositors, it will require very large profits to remunerate the sberebolders, and these profits the p►omoters hope to secure by sharing them with thaw who assist in their creation to a greater extent than is done by other establishments. Some yeses must necessarily elapse before the soundness of this principle, or rather the inducement it holds out to embark capital in forming a bank, can be tested ; and unpromising as it may now appear to most of as, it should not be forgotten that the opposition to the system of Joint Stock Banking se proposed by the London and West minster was very general, not only among bankers but among many who were seconeected with banks , except as depositors. That the general principles on which the Joint Stock Banks of London are con ducted are sound, experience has proved beyond a doubt; that the public has not been blind to the advantages they offer is shown by the progress made by the older banks doting the past year, notwith standing the establishment of two new ones holding out no unusual or dangerous attractions to customers. Bat it is important, looking at the vast numbers sow interested in the position of those institution', that no precautions against abase should be omitted, aid that the audit of their accounts should not be a mere verification of balances, bat a careful inspection of their securities also; while the moot complete pub licity should be given to their balance-sheets, for which it is extremely desirable that some form should be devised, which all Joint Stock Banks without etcosption—the Bank of Ragland compelled to adopt.

The gut leave tildes of his family with the Queen, Prince Albert, the Prince.. Royal, and the rest of the royal fenny, took plan to-day. Preparations were to be made hers by the railway and dock authorities to enable the Pricers of Prussia, her daughter the Princess Louise, end their suite, to leave for London by the 11.30 a.m. teeth. Is consequence of the finesses of the weather this moron, it was "moldered woe improbable that her blejeaty aid Prises Albert would scoompsny their illustrious guests to Smithamptos in the Fairy.

A railway carriage for the SOCOMMIOutiOa of the Prussian primrose wee drawn up close to the water's edge, and the tame preparations were made for their landing by the dock authorities as are made for her Majesty herself. A large ern was barri caded off, and a lauding praise, reared with market sloth, marked out. The Fairy was ward dreg side from the middle of the dock, which took acme little time, during which a large crowd of parlor, who had trembled in the docks, had • good opportunity of seeing the tUsstrins visitors. Considerable curiosity wee maaithated es Ns the family with whom our Princess Royal is 'brut to be so Intimately conneeted.

Weinfeld', the whole of the royal renames, with their attendants, wore on deek, and the farewell took place Although this was dose at first with that profound and graceful reverses which is ebareeteriatie of royal etiquette, yet rum mild we that this was no mars ceremony. No doubt the two illustrious families, whose domestic happi. sem is about to be to ietimatey dersdent on each other, had taken leave at °shone, yet at eeporatirg at Southamp ton her Majesty, with a charming frankness which dis tinguishes bar, kissed affertatately the Persian pIUeIIISOS while shatiog hands with them, and the latter also hired the Primmer Renal. The members of the suite of the Priem. of Persia fell on one knee and kissed the hand of her Majesty, Prince Albert conducted the Pets awes of Prussia to their railway manage, sad there grate fully took leave of them and their attendants. When the train etaited, the Prussian prinoesthe waved their headier chiefs to her Mejrety sod the Primer Royal, who both imitated the peetiog salute. As soon al the train started there we. a rush of persons towards the icier dads, and it was found that Prier Albert, accompanied by LI. element- General Grey and Colonel Seymour, had gone to limper the three magnificent graving docks.

Enigma. Zepatero has held good to the lust. The Constitu tionalists have thrown up the game for the time, and the sword rules at Barcelona. The partial manifesta tion of the 18th, intended to give the troops upon whom we relied the opportunity to pronounce, failed completely. The superior officer, who the evening before, at the meeting of the militia chief., promised to come over to us with his battalion, did not appear at the head of the troops (I have learned this morning that he was confined to barracks and put under surveillance). The command had been given to other officers. The militia of the Ist and the 13th, who were instructed to engage in a light skirmish, after which the troops were to join the de fenders of the barricades—these militiamen, seeing that the firing was vigorously kept up by the army, thought themselves betrayed, and retired. Some individuals taken by the soldiers had, it was said, been put to death. The most sinister rumours circu lated all the 19th. It was impossible to direct the movement. The thirst of vengeance alone animated the militia. Five battalions would no longer listen to the advice of the leaders of the movement, and barri cades were erected in the town at the points where the struggle has generally been maintained. After being obstinately defended, they wore carried by the troops, who penetrated into the houses, and thence fired on the militia. Duriogthreedays the straggle con tinned, without any caneert on the part of the brave defenders of liberty, and it was not until the fourth dsy that the Junta took upon it to direct the move ment. If on the first day Don -- had been free and kept in his command, he would have carried his troops along with him, and fraternised with the mi litia ; the peendeprogressistas among the garrison, encouraged by the example, would have come over to us, and we should hiss triumphed. Bat when Zipatero had compromised the troops by the military execution of the prisoners, no hops re mained of inducing them to pronounce. A terrible butchery wee the necessary consequence; and, although the Junta spared no exertion to cause its plan to be adopted, the fury of the militia eogeged drowned all reason. As you may easily conceive, the braes citizens of ➢are*loos have dons prodigies of valour. A woman in the Rue de rUnioa, after seeing the heroic de fenders of the barricades fall one after another, long maintained the struggle, hertelf firing, and succeeded in effecting her retreat with the lut survivors, after having carried away the dead bodies, and having saved all the wounded. Bat how much blood has been spilt in vain ! Had the plan of the Junta been adopted the loos of so many brave defenders of liberty and of progress would have been spared. From the second day we knew that Montjuich would side with Z slater° ; that the garrison of the town would not pronounce. The tejedor es (weavers) on beingeounded, had declared that they would take no part in the movement noises the Junta adopted a war cry,which would have spoilt every thing; the same answer wu made by the mechanic.' to the overtures of the Junta. In place of imitating the wise course of Saragossa, which rested entirely upon the constitution, and rallied round the liberador (Espartero), the bravest of our people wished to go so far that the Junta wu compelled to refuse its con currence. Hence, setting *side those whom revolu tionary feelings carried away, those who cannot beer the firing or smell powder without being intoxicated, not one joined in the combat, which wu sustained by the militia alone. San Augustin' furnished not a single combatant. But I return to the plan of the Junta. To make the militia descend into the streets when that portion of the army which was considered cer tain had pronounced, to engage along the whole line, to maintain it with such energy as to give the other bodies the opportunity of joining us, and thus compel Zapatero to shut himself up in the citadel, and thus remain masters of the city until erode brought the capitulation of the citadel and of Montjuich. If alter the first attack all the troops remained under the orders of Zapatero, to retire into the wintry, where, from all quarters, arrived promises of protienciamersto. The uncontrollable fury of some battalions pre vented until the fourth day the execution of this plan, and by allowing Zepatero—in consequence of the greatness and obstinacy of the struggle—to adopt terrible repressive measures, the future means of resistance were compromised. This is our present position. The soldiers of liberty, who would have been able for some time looser to continue the struggle at Barcelona, have retreated to the country. Mataro, Meares., Villa franca, Iguatada, almost all the towns of importance, are with us. In all the pueblo of the environs —Badalona, Moline del Rey, Sanindres, dec. —we have none but friends. General who resigned at Madrid, is expected every moment to take the direction of the movement in Catalonia, and to open communications with Arragon. But how many brave men, sacrificed in the.. bloody days, will never see the approaching triumph of the hcly caw* of progress! Zapatero renews at Barcelona the system of terror of the Boron de Meer and of the Conde de Berms. The militia is disarmed. Hundreds of honcurable citizens have been arrested. They say that several have been shot. We know not where those are who are still alive. We have news from Tarragona. where the inatruo• tionsof the Junta were completely obeyed. After the demonstration, the troops not having adopted the movement, all struggle ceased, expecting the time when the triumph shall have been organised throughout. The last sews from Arragon is excellent. The Moniteur of yesterday has the following despatch : r, Jove 28. SAINT " The Consul of France to hia Exoellency the AliniVer of Foreign Affairs. 6. No news from Saragossa lines ny last despatch. The uncertainty of news is attributed to the delay of fire days granted to the Junta by General Doles."

Besides the force already sent against that town, two batteries of siege artillery, oomposed of twelve 16.pouuders, ten 12-pounders. and ten mortars are in preparation. A fact mentioned by several journals relative to the proclamation of a republic at Madrid seems to have been based on the following circumstance : At the meeting of the deputise on the 14th three members of the extreme opposition presented a proposition, in which they demanded the proclamation of the re- • Tlt• great fotradry el the street &z Pablo at the 004- I vest el IL Annetta.

A junta has been feigned, of which the milit.ry governor is the presi dent, and the editor of the Re 1701114011 is the vise-pre stunt. A c dam of troops has pew:sided from Valencia into Amgen, and on the 21st it was at &garbs. The Madrid correspondent of the Indipendanee Beige, in a letter dated July 24, says that he is pc• sitively informed it is the intention of the govern. ment to regard the Constituent Curtis as defunct, and officially to proclaim their dissolution as soon as order shall have been re-established. The government will not think of convening a new Constituent Assem bly to deliberate upon the future constitution of the country, but will impose upon it either the constitu tion of 1837 or the constitution of 1845; but which of these has not yet been determined. If the constitu tion of 1837 be adopted, a modification of it will be made by changing the elective character of the Senate; if the constitution of 1845 be preferred, an article will be added to it securing the immunity of certain individuals, with a provision for completely extinguishing the liberty of the press. The Madrid Gazette of the 24th publishes the report of the C)mmaodant•Geoeral of Galicia; who states that he has caused the captain-general of that province, who would not recognise the new ministry, to be arrested. General Delos was to be under the walls of Se-a gone on the 25th. The town is considered impreg nable on the side of the Ebro, bat it was intended to make an attack on the month side, and it was con fidently expected by the government that no resist ance would be made. The Captain-General of Catalonia has sent in a despatch, dated the 21st, which shows what a as rkne resistance he had to encounter at Barcelona: I made to-day a general attack upon the inextricable labyrinth of barricades, amongst which the rebels bait con ceded their form. At the appointed ►ear, all the troops began the assault at once, and in spite of en obstinate re optima compelled the enemies of our conatitutional Queen to abandon their positions, and take to flight, as far as the boundary of the neighbouring taws of Gracia, and thus Barcelona was cleared of those wro had so disgraced her f.ir renown. lam now busy in seen ring the results of this day, and will give you more particu lars hereafter.

Some of tbe 'godsend° organs are allowing ft want of gene rosity to those of the opposition, which lest are now in capable of defending themselves. _ The Captain-Cies;rel of Seville has prohibited the pabli esticet of two journals : the Orta. a teliOns and absolutist, and the Civilisaciove, a democratic journal. This very evening, the Iberia informs by a note its sub• scribers that its impression bad jest been seized. On the discovery of the conspiracy at Valencia, a great many arrests were made, the most remarkable of which was that et M. Orem., the Marquis of Albaids, who has been lodged in the citadel.

The events in Spain are variously estimated by the organs of the German press. The Viennese journals see in them danger for the maintenance of tranquil lity in the Transalpine provinces of Austria. " The recent events at Madrid,"ssys the East German Post, " do not directly concern Austria, but they may react on Italy, and in this respect ought to fix our atten tion." The Wanderer seems to accuse the French government of not being strangers to what is passing in Spain ; it quotes a semiofficial article published in the month of April last by the Constdutionnel, , which declared Spain to be on the eve of a crisis from which the poor Peninsula could only recover through an intervention." The eve predicted by the Conadutionnet is come; to accomplish the prophecy, the intervention still remains to be executed. The Prussian organs, on the contrary, depend in this cir cumstance on the circumspection and moderation of the French government, and do not believe in an intervention. The Silesian Gazette, in a remarkable article, discusser' the reasons that militate in favour of non-intervention, which, according to this journal, is the fundamental principle of the Emperor Napo- Icor's foreign policy. FRANCE. (PION OUR OWN C011111111PONDRIIT.) PARIS, TI!IBM BUSING. Sir Henry Lytton Butwer arrived lest evening in Paris on his route to the East, where he is commis sioned to arrange the government of the Wallachian and Moldavian provinces. Ho was attended by Cap tain Leicester Vernon, M P. The Spanish letters and papers received to-day ere of very little interest. The Madrid journals publish a number of bulletins from the provinces, which of course are all favourable to O'DoonelPs governmur; but these bulletins them selves show how much the truth was kept back at first. They give a list of places which have now de ' pronounced (such is the convenient word coined by the Spanish press for the occasion) and in so doing, inform their reader', for the first time, that they had ever been in a state of re volt. Gslicia, Lugo, and Huesca are among the places which these papers now confess were in a state of insurrection. At Reuss and Gracia it is admitted that the struggle was terrible. Jaen, Or nada, Almeria, and Malaga still appear at these dates (24th and 26ib) to have remained in a state of " pro nouncement." O'Donnell is represented as energe- 1 tically resisting the efforts of reaction. Neverthe less, it seems that after " mature consideration" the government has decided not to re-organize the Na tional Guard of Madrid. The question of whether the Cortes shall be convened or not is to be " ad journed till the troubles are completely appeased." This is a capital joke, because if, as the Atontteur affirms, O'Donnell has made no coup data, the Cortes is in existence, and O'Donnell has no power to suspend their sittings. it is announced that M. Olozaga's resignation has not been accepted by the Queen of Spain. It is even said now that it was never offered. But this may very likely be a rumour circulated by the coup d'etat party, sicce O'Donnell has found it necessary to coquet with the Liberals. A letter from Corunna, of July 22, represents the ware of Galicia as altogether favourable. The National Guard in that province have been disarmed without difficulty. The Pays says that the latest letters from Spain state that several members of the revolutionary Junta of Saragosu have resigned, and that the in- Labitants of the town, on finding that they had been deceived by the insurgents, who had falsely announced to them the triumph of the insurrection at Madrid and on the principal points of the terri- tory, were anxious to mike their submission. There had been a straggle between them and a company of National Guards that had come into the town trom the provinces. This company was ultimately dis armed. --------- The diligence on the road from Madrid to Bayonne The Pays contradicts the report that the Marquis the other day was stopped by a band of robbers, de Target is expected in Paris.

ITALY. A letter from Parma, of the 23rd, say' that the Austrians on the frontier of Lombardy are making preparations for crossing the Po at four different points, namely at Viadans, Solarolo, Casalmaggiore, and another place. The Correspondence Dahenna says that on the 18th inst. the Roman police entered the house of the Abbe Bernardini, the aged uncle of Cardinal Autonelli, searched every corner, and carried away all his papers. Not the least suspicion either of political or protestant propagan. diem had ever attached itself to the Abbe, who is eightyseven years of age ; but he had sometimes express :1 in conversation his ind gnation against Papal misgovernment, and the conduct of his nephew the Prime Minister; and what may perhaps explain the seizure of his papers is that he knew the family secrete. A woman, accused of "blasphemy," has been sen tenced at Rome to four years' imprisonment, and the Holy Office has just condemned a gardener to the same term of punishment, for eating flesh meat on Christmas Eve. These facts we have from a letter dated Rome, July 21, in the Correspondance Italienne. The Rome and Frascati railway trains have stopped running, the line being found unsafe. The Armenia, of Turin, states that the police have just discovered a large quantity of arms and atnmnni tion concealed in a house at Novara. The occupant of the house has made his escape across the frontier. On the 22nd the remainder of the primers who had been taken to Mantua were brought back to Parma to stand their trial. The same paper adds that one of the prisoners, a Dr. Fanti, had loot his reason in consequence of the treatment which he had received in prison, and for three months, while in a state of delirium, he aas obliged to lie on the bare ground in his prison, the Auatrian surgeon obsti nately declaring that his illness was feigned. The Opinion, of Turin announces that several in fluential persons at Florence are collecting subscrip. tions for a sword of honour to be presented to Oen ', eral della Marmora. Baron Hubner, the Austrian rvabassador to the Court of Paris, arrived at Venice on the 23rd, from Trieste. AUSTRIA. It is announced at Vienna that immediately after the marriage of the Archduke Charles Luis with the Princess Marguerite of Saxony he will be ap- pointed OovcrJor-General of the L )thirdo-Venetian kingdom. "General Count O'nlay, who had been ordered here from Milan," says a Vienna letter of the 25th, " arrived last night, and wee received to-day by the Emperor at a private audience, There seems to be no doubt that the state of Italy has been the cause of his being sent for." THE EAST. MARSEILLES, JCLY 29. Marshal Pe ßailer has arrived at Malta on hoard the Roland. He was feted by the Governor. The Marshal was to leave, on the 2Gth or 27th, for Marseilles. The anstantinople Journal of the 21st has an article complaining of the occupation of the Isle of Serpents by the Reagens, and the delay in the eve. cuatioa of Kars, where the Russians have brought reinforcements to the extent of 12,000 men. How. ever, it was hoped that these matters would be ar• ranged, the telegraph having brought the news that M. de Houtenieff, the Russian Ambassador, may be expected soon. The journals announce that the new Cheriff of Mecca has gained a bloody battle, and taken the town of Taif by assault. It was there that his rival had taken refage. It is considered that the revolt in Arabia is terminated. The former Cheriff will be banished. The fire at Salonics was terrible. There were 200 killed, and 600 hurt. The loss is estimated at not less thso 130 millions of pias,res. The King of Oude proposes to pass a month in E39pt• A RAZZIA IN MONTENEGRO. The result of the expedition which was mentioned yesterday, against the Four inhabitants of Konci, who had failed or rcfused to pay the tribute claimed of them by Prince Daniel, of Montenegro, is thus briefly narrated in a gazette published in Agram : On the 11th instant the in. abitan's of Kouci, who, ink stead of the Turkish ass , star ce they bad eapectel, found themselves men .ced by 1,800 Montenrgrins, c nun:Landed by the bro 11:1 , of Prince Daniel, abandor ed their entrenchments, and took to flight.

K ,oci is now nothing more than a desert waste; teen the old men and cbi:dran have bad to pay with their lives in the absence of t•cir kindred. In relating this ferocious act, the Vienna cones• pondent of the Independanee Beige expresses his astonishment that the government of a horde of savages clpab!c of such inhumanity, should dare to send its ambassadors to Vienna, Paris, and St. Petersburg and ask recognition amongst European nations.
