The creditors would, h 1111- ever, get no more than one shilling in the pound, on ace nint of the expenses of working the fist.—Mr. Lawrence, who appeared for the bankrupt, complained of the expenses of Hits in small eststcs. The creditors were injured, and the debtors damnified, because a considerable sum was spent in fees. The property given up would have paid Os. 84. in the pound, without the expenses, and the reason the creditor, would get no more than one shilling in the pound was be cause the expenses of the flat would amount to from 1001. to 1301.—His Honour, after taking into consideration the favourable circumstances in the ease, adjourned the certifi cate for de months from the flat, with protection. 4;s . !WI WiLicsa.-1 boa, spplled • • • • LONDON SESSIONS-SATURDAY. Before the Recorder, Aldermen Kelly, Gibbs, IL Sidney, Hunter, HooEr, Re. GLANDS/LID iloll.llE. William Duciwell was indicted for having exposed for sale in Smithfield Market, on the 15th instant, a mare, he knowing her to be suffering under the visitation of the disease called glanders."—Several wit nesses were called, who entered into a detail of the matter, which went to the establishment of the cue, as opened by counsel.—The Recorder summed up, and said the pimple ques tion now was, had the defendant, when he offered this mare for sale in the public market of Smithfield, known that she was so glandered o That she was so was quite clear from the evi dence.—The jury returned a verdict of Guilty, but said that they considered he had acted under the direction of his master. The recorder, in passing sentence, said he quite agreed on thin latter point with the jury, and with that impression the court hoped that the punishment which was about to be pawed upon the defendant, would be felt by the person under whose directions he bad acted. The fine the court sentenced the defendant to pay was 101., which sum must be paid ere he could be set at liberty. If the court did not think that there was some other person to blame, the defendant might rely that a much severer punishment in the shape of imprison ment would have been ordered ; for the great frequency of this offence rendered it a mater of necessity that a heavy punishment should be inflicts], in order that others might be deterred. The fine we, immediately paid by Mr. Ear dell, the defendant's master. BROMPTON COUNTY COURT. Before A. Amer. Esq., Judge. JEWELLERS' O CUSTO3I6.' —W seaman r. ENDEAN.— The plaintiff in this case sought to recover from the defend ant, a jeweller,. of No. 12, Brampton Lower-road, the sum of ss. the Jake of a bracket watch guard, alleged to have been falsely represented as " solid fine gold."—The plaintiff stated that he saw the watch guard in the defend ant's shop window, ticketed " solid fine gold," and went in and bought it for 255., and soon afterwards ascertained that the seal was hollow. The defendant refused to refund the money, and plaintiff then showed the judge the ticket war. ranting it solid.—The defendant resisted the claim on the round that it was the cutout of the trade to ticket articles in that way, and, in proof of his assertion, referred to the principal jewellers in London. It could not be supposed that the seal was solid, had it been so, its value would be 51. The judge said the question was, whether the plaintiff had been misled. A person walking along the street, and seeing the article in the window with the ticket on it, would sup pose it solid gold. It had been represented en solid, and was not so.—Hia Honour then gave judgment for the plaintiff. CHELMSFORD PETTY SESSIONS.

POLICE.-SATIMDAT. MANSION-HO USE. —T et NEW SEAMEN'S Remoras TION Act.—G. V. George was charged with having deserted the Nereid at Quebec.—Capt. Escott deposed that in some quence of the defendant leaving the vessel the utmost incon venience was sustained, and it was necessary to give a much higher rate of wages for a substitute.—The prisoner made no defence.—The Lord Mayor said that complaints of the deser tion of seamen were doily made by the owners, and to the commercial world it was of the utmost importance that every means should be adopted to check an evil of such magnitude. —Mr. Coleman, clerk in the registrar-general's office, in formed the Lord Mayor that there was great difficulty in pre veiling upon the owners to appear against delinquents. The owners almost invariably either refused to attend, or refused to take notice of the communications made to them from the re girrar-general's office of the appearance of seamen charged with the offence of desertion. In many cases he was com pelled to take out summonses for their appearance.— IV. W. King, second mate to the Acadia, was charged with having deserted from his vessel at a North American port.—The Lord Mayor committed the defendant for thirty days, and regretted that the law did not allow him to inflict a heavier penalty, as a person in such a capacity ought to have set a better example to the rest of the crew. CHARGE OP EMBEZZLEMENT.—J. Salmon, late a COM !Nereid traveller to Messrs. Turner and Wilson, coffee dealers, of Mark-lane , was finally examined charged with embezzliug 751. The total amount which the prisoner had embezzled exceeded 5001., bnt the above was the only charge proceeded upon. Among other of prosecutor's customers, the prisoner collected 751. from Mr. Bill, grocer, of New mole which he had omitted to remit through the branch bank, as directed. He had, when first detected, declared that he had remitted the money ; but this proved incorrect, as was deposed to by Mr. Durham, the cashier of the bank. Since the defalcations were discovered, the prisoner had written to Messrs. Turner and Wilson delarang his 'defi ciencies, requesting time, and offering terms of payment. —, He was fully committed. GUILDHALL.—Cgaitoie OT FaAVD. —IL Farmers , alias R. Williams, formerly a clerk to Messrs. Houton and Co silk mercers and hosiers, of Newington causeway, was charged with a series of frauds upon a number of the prin cipal warehousemen and silk mercers in the City. In every cue but the last he had succeeded in obtaining goods to a considerable amount. He always stated himself to be in the employ of Meters. Hunton and Co. ,• and their principal buyer, Mr. Atkinson, being busily employed on some other matters, he was desired by his employers •to obtain goods, which he had done among numerous fines, to amounts vary ing from 51. to 161. His last call was on the firm of Coster and Co , Miik.street, when, in consequence of some suspicion entertained of his statement, a messenger was d espa tched to Messrs. Prittle. Mr. Bean, the principal warehouseman, attended, and rem/Iliad the prisoner uhaving defrauded them the previous week, and he was given into csatody. In every instance a clear case was eatablished, and Alderman Hughes committed him for trial. BO W- ST R E ET. —Ex ICTINO ILLEGAL INTEREST.— T. Baker, pawnbroker, of Stsnhope-street, Clare-market, was charged with demanding more than the legal interest —Mrs. Eniver stated that on the Bth of April she pledged articles at the shop of the defendant for 2e. 6d., and on the 9th inst. redeemed them, and paid 31d. demanded by the defendant as interest. She applied to this court to know if the ch ar ge was not unjust, and discovered that she had been chargeda halfpenny more than she should have paid.—J. Simpson said that the complainant called on kim, and he accompanied her to the defendant, who laid he know he had charged be yond the legal interest, and wished he had charged more. This the defendant denied.—The defendant was fined 51. ; and expressed a determination to appeal against the deci sion. . STRANGE CONDUCT OP ♦ POLICEMAN.—G. Humphrey, 155 F, was charged with wilfully neglecting his duty, by being absent without leave, from 12 o clock at night until 6 o'clock in the morning, to which he pleaded guilty.--Mr. Hall said it was a breach of discipline with which a magis trate could have nothing to do.-61r. Pearce said that the defendant took the an oat of the hands of the commission en, by insisting that he Scald be dismissed for an offence which he shoal ohs he Ind for, The defendant main tained that he has leas Pies 7 o'cletk until 12 o'clock, and then Inspector Legs, who was on duty, allowed him ano ther half hoot, The inspector denied that he did any inch thing, but ordered him to apply to the superintendent.— Mr. Han 011111111111.111 i that the defendant had committed a very serious silsee, fir no person would be on a beat if men were allowates leas the force at Pearce said he offered to Ihre lis, hat Ito refused to submit, and being sent before the oesseisinnere he ret them at dedanco.—Mr. Hall was of coplasa that such conduct would be attended with the greatest danger to the public, and as the defendant ►ad treated the authority of his superiors with contempt he should order him to pay a fine of 31., or 14 days impri sonment. WORSHI P -ST RE ET. —ASSAULT MID A1711[17E1) Roneatur.—T. Branum and M. LenniAom were charged with violently assaulting and attempting to rob Mrs. Red ford, whose face was much swollen and disfigured. The complainant deposed that, on Friday night, hearing that her husband was at the King's Arms public-house, in the Wlutechapel-road, she went there to inquire for him, and was surrounded by • number of persons, including the two prisoners, one of whom made a pull at • gold watch attached to a chain round her neck. She wan then knocked down by a violent blow, and as eh• lay on the ground she received a vi .lent kick in the face from the prisoner Bros nan. She redacted all the attempts to deprive her of the watch, until rescued from her assailants, and the prisoners were afterwards apprehended.—Mr. Rammill found the evi dence insufficient against Lenniham, who was discharged ; Brosnan was committed for trial. THAMES.—ROBaItaY or Fixrckse.—Lucy Haber!, the widow of a atock-broker, was charged with stealing several coppers, ovens, blinds, and other fistures.—Mr. Wilke, an auctioneer and house-agent, stated that in October the prisoner took a house of him, giving as a reference Thornton, Outran, and Co., pig-iron merchants, Fore-street, Lime house, and Great Winchester-street, City. Recently some .:paeans had been made, and this firm turned out to be • swindling affair, and Thornton was at present in custody. This induced him to look after the house, and he found it had been completely gutted.—The prisoner acknowledged her guilt, end was committed for Vial. MONEY MARKET. SATURDAY SiYINTIRS. The rir early in the day that a deputation of bauble, boded by Meier& Glyn and Masterman, had posesited westward by appointment, if not by invited's, tea awkremos with certain member* of the geweemomt ea the present state of affairs, served eirewelisa the =potations which have latterly losem =Whitman with =ore confidence, that, however reimotantly, the mesossitY was now felt and seknow bard for some Aida interference of a character so beaded as fairly to seat sod grapple with the crisis. Then impressions wowebed a favourable influence upoa the funds, as wined by the higher prices THE EXPRESS, MONDAY EVENING, OCTOBER 25, 1847. realised upon the first _ in the market. Consols, which opened 1 lower, were done at 80 for money, and 801 for account, showing an improve ment of per cent. upon the last quotatiens of yester day. The favourable tenor of the commercial and monetary news by the Sarah Sands steamer from the United States, from whence the despatch by a vessel to follow of 200,000 sovereigns was advised, with 40,000 received by the steamer, helped to assist the market. As the day advanced reports were circu lated with more assurance that the deputation of bankers had succeeded in their object, so far as to obtain from the ministers an acknow ledgment that something was necessary to be done. Consols gradually advanced in consequence to 801 money, and 80Z for time, but at the regular closing hour receded slightly to 79Z, to 801 for pre sent transfer, and 801 to .1 for account. Such was the anxiety manifested to learn the more exact re sults of the banking delegation, that the stock ex change was still tbronged till nearly five o'clock with dealers and speculators. Nothing transpired, how ever, of an authentic character beyond the fact of the parties being well received at the Treasury, that their representations and propositions had been listened to and discussed, and would be taken into earnest con sideration with a view to some remedial action so far as possible and feasible ; the more formal and definite answer to be given on Monday. The sum total of this information, accurate enough in the outline doubtless, with the report that Sir R. Peel had been consulted, if not sent for specially, was discussed and interpreted in the favourable sense generally of a relaxation c the banking law, upon which some rather extensive purchases were founded, which Cf rried Consols up to 811 to I per cent. it was said. Reduced Threes left off at two o'clock, the official time of closing for Saturday, 781 to 9. Three-and-a-Quarter per Cents., 801 to 1. Exchequer Bills, 35a. to 30s. die., having been done at 375. die. India Bonds, 50s. to 40s. die. Long Annuities, 8 1-16 to 1. Bank Stock, 180 to 3. The attention of dealers was too keenly and ex clusively devoted to the home market, to be diverted to foreign stocks. Scarcely half-a-dozen transactions took place in them. Mexican were lower at 17 to 1. Dutch Two.and-a-Half per Cents., 53 to 4 ; the Fours, 80 to 2. Belgian Four-and-a-Half per Cents., 88 to 90. Portuguese, 19 to 21. The quotations for other foreign stocks may be reported the same as before, no business having been dose in them. The state and the rates of foreign exchange for some weeks past have presented some remarkable features. The rates have been high, and such as to yield to the buyers of bills, on Paris for example, a gain equal to 10 or 15 per cent. per annum, and yet few buyers could be found at those extraordinary temptations of profit. The largest capitalist exchange dealers declined to purchase unexceptionable bills for payment in cash, according to usage, on the post day following. They required credit from one week to a fortnight, or, at choice, pay- I ment was offered by other bills of exchange instead of cash. This anomalous condition of ex change can only be paralleled iu the history of com mercial disasters by the state of affairs in Marseilles from 1770 to 1773, when, through the remarkable scarcity of money, bills drawn from foreign parts could only bo paid at maturity, or offered to be paid by bills upon other places, and when domestic bills were drawn with the particular clause—payable en compensation—that is, by other bills. "Ce precede si funesto a la reputation de eche place," said the Cham ber of Commerce, in a report of October, 1770, " l'a absolument discreditee. Dans l'etranger, on refuse les papiers sur Marseilles, on on ne les proud qu'i une perte de trois on quatre pour cent; on regarde nos negociants comme hors d'etat de satisfaire i leurs engagement par des valeurs reelles." The excess of usury consequent on this scarcity of money, and the discredit arising from the usage of paying bills by bills, led to a resolution of prohibiting after a specified period the introduction into bills of the compensation clause referred to. It is singular that one of the causes assigned for the monetary derangements of Marseilles at that period was the numerous failures of merchants in London and Cadiz, which had spread distrust in the commer cial world, and interrupted all business." In so industrious a compiler of facts as the Econo mist journal, though by no means a steady and con sistent reasoner, a remarkable ignorance of the facts which domineer in foreign exchange represented by bills, and of the principle or system which governs sash exchange, is manifested in its number of the 9th inst., which present circumstances now recall to mind. It is there observed that " foreign bills were purchased at better rates than they had previously obtained— sad capital was thus sent abroad, leaving a fair profit to than who entered into these transactions." Now, it is an absurdity to suppose that capital passes abroad through the ordinary transactions in bills of exchange. Capital does not change quarters any thing like so rapidly. The rates of exchange are influenced vari ously by balances of trade, adverse or favourable, here or elsewhere, or by loans and great financial operas tiou which are represented by arbitrations of ex change. As there is no loan or great financial ope ration now in progress, the trading balances, direct and indirect, have only to be taken into account. Paris owes more to London than London to Paris, and as there is a great scarcity, and a high rate of in terest of money in London, there is the greater diffi culty in obtaining money for bill balances on Paris. The buyer will purchase only on the condition of re ceiving 26 francs 20 centimes in Paris for a bill at three months drawn from London. Upon a rough calculation, the seller is obliged to submit to the loss of nearly ten pence per pound on sale of his bill., reckoning the par at 23 francs 23 centimes; that is, he pays at the rate of 15 per cent. per annuls. Bat that heavy rate does not carry capital away. There is great difficulty even in negotiating bills at those excessive prices, and the reason is that money commands nearly as great a rate of usance at home, with less risk. Therefore capital does not move, except in the sense of profit and leas. Twenty shil lings 18 paid in London to receive twenty shillings and ten pence in Paris. It is a transaction of dis count just the same as the Bank of England charging 8 per cent. for a three months' bill. It is the differ ence between hard cash, and credit resolvable into cash at a specified period. No capital is expected in these transactions, save the profit, and that does not remain abroad. The buyer of a bill at high rates gains ; the seller, who is a manufacturer, or exporting merchant, loses by the difference. He exports at prices to receive a pound, and the pound is discounted to him at 15 per cent. loss. In remark ing some months ago upon some loose observations in the Manchester Guardlln, about this doctrine of high foreign exchanges carrying away capital, these same explanations were briefly given. High rates of foreign exchange benefit chiefly the exchange dealers and the Bank of England, by bringing gold in. On industrial and exporting commerce they in flict a loss. They export upon a calculation of prices in pounds. They are paid in high rates of exchange at so much discount on the pound —so much loss or deterioration of profit expected. As to Capital being exported under circumstances at home when it can command from 10 to 20 per cent. profit, it is an ab surdity. There is the consolation that under high rates of exchange the country is exporting more than it is importing. But there are exceptional circumstances which role exchanges tem porarily; and assuredly imports or exports have much less connexion with present rates than the money penury which exists. Money commands at this pre sent time 11 and 12 per cent. upon the beat commer cial securities. The officious and imprudent intromission of the governing power is the main source of the raiment embarrissments in foreign as in internal exchanges. It has undertaken the task of regulating and controll-, ing credit. It might as well attempt, Canute-like, to hold the tides and the ocean in subjection. This year it decrees that four millions leas of credit circulation shall serve all the more extended p urposes of indust r y and commerce than last year. Exportable and im portable values fall in consequence, excepting in articles where the supply falls short of the tonal rate of consumption, as in cotton, in which there are famine crops. The fall is still more ruinously accelerated by bankers and capitalists hoarding four millions of credit notes more, in dread of an extra demand for deposits for twice the amount, or in hopes of making more profit as the scarcity of money and the contraction of credit shall raise the rates of mance usuriously higher. The circulation is deprived of eight millions of gold and eight millions of credit notes in one year, sub sta ntial values are re duced to a discount of 50 per cent., substantial traders and capitalists ruined, or struggling vainly against the di&ulties of their position, are recommended in ribald leaders and in the more soberly virulent " money -market" articles of the Times, to di m i n i s h th e i r • ' by 50 per cent., to consign hen dreds of thousands of labourers employed on rail ways to starvation, and millions of money cir culating and daily returning into the national and banking treasury for rc-issuo and the re-invigo -1 ration of industry, to the winds. The government looks on appalled, yet in the desperation of despair awaits the worst, which in the exercise of calm rea -1 son, and listening to the counsels of men of sound judgment and experience, with the lesso"s of the past before them in history, might be readily averted or tempered. The current y theories, perfect as they may superficially appear, which will not stand the first trial, must be rotten at the core. Leave banks and credit, as well as trade, alone, they will take care of themselves, as, the example is there patent, in Scotland before the law intermeddlcd. The stoppage of the old and respectable firm of Messrs. Scott, Bell, and Co., in the East India and Mauritius trade, was reported to-day. It is under stood that, as regarded the India relations of the house, they were almost altogether confined to Ma dras. The Mauritius was a very secondary item of their business. The house is said to have values in hand quite sufficient to meet all present engagements, but, as from their letters, the remittance of bills upon other and insolvent houses were advised, with drafts upon themselves besides, which they would be unable to meet, the more honourable course of suspending payments now was deemed proper, in justice to all parties concerned. A report appeared in the Daily Niars some days since, under the head of Brussels, referring to the embarrassments of a provincial joint-stock bank in Belgium, the capital stock of which was mostly sub scribed and owned in England. There is only one bank in that country to which the description applies --the Bank of Flanders. From the result of in quiries by parties interested, it appears there was no foundation for the report, which no doubt arose out of the failure of a private banking house at Brussels. It is proper to add, that the Bank of Flanders, like other banks, experienced a sort of run or pressure in consequence of that failure, whirl was promptly met, and concluded shortly. We announced a few days since the failure of two large houses in Courtrai. One of these is the firm of Veoein and A. Giells. The liabilities amount to two millions of francs. The meeting of the creditors of Messrs. A. A. Gower, Nephews, and Co., was held to-day to receive the balance-sheet of their affairs, prepared by Minns Quilter, Ball, Jay, and Lestock Wilson in the chair, chairman of the London Assurance Company. Mr. Maynard, of the firm of Crowder and Maynard, solicitors, read and explained the state ment of accounts to the meeting, and it is but justice to that gentleman to say that no statement could be more clearly and intelligibly stated and elucidated or inquiries more unreservedly and satisfactorily an swered. The balance-sheet below will exhibit the state of the concern. The Mauritius involvement, as in the similar cases of Messrs. Reid and Irving and Messrs. Barclay Brothers, swallows up the ca pital of the house. Tree cash advances direct to Messrs. Henry Barlow and Co., on that island alone,. are stated at 246,4361., and other indirect payments at 20,2831. more. Securities were obtained on estates for these advances, but in actual circumstances they are of little value comparatively. The house was gradually drawn into this embarrassing absorption of its capital. Some two years ago the amount was less than 100,0001., but the anxious desire of recovering what was already involved led to the more unfor tunate extension of credit. Some observations were made about the transactions of the house in railways, but Mr. Maynard explained that the partners had been chairmen of some companies with a limited amount of shares, but in their official capacity had had to sign for the associated bodies for a very large number beyond what they held. The shares of their own property had besides yielded a considerable profit, as the accounts would testify. Of the returns to be expected from the Mauritius property, held as security, no estimate was made ; but it was expected, if no forced sale was attempted, that government would, by facilitating the more easy and cheap supply of labour, if not by other measures, enhance its value considerably within a short period.

Tire PANIC AT NEWCASTLE.—On Friday, • large por tion of the most respectable inhabitants signed a requisi tion to the Mayor, requesting him to call a public meeting to decide upon the course to be pursued to sustain the credit of the remaining banks. The meeting was accordingly held on Saturday morning, in the Town-hall, which was filled by Yee requisitionists and others, presided over by the Mayor.— Mr. M. Plummer said they were met to act rather than to talk, end very few observations were therefore needed to introduce the resolutions which bad been entrusted to him. There could be no question that the banking establishments of the town were worthy of the utmost confidence. All men of ! business knew that the banker did not receive deposits to lock them up, and then to pay interest for them, but for the purpose of affording aecommod ition to merchstos and manufacturers, and of thus employing capital to the best advantage. The managers of the Newcastle banks had done their duty in this respect, and had met the wants and wishes of the public as far as possible. He was old enough to recollect many panics, and one which occurred in 1793 was similar to the present one. 'f ne hankers then circulated their own notes, and when the panic came they resolved upon closing their establishments against all demands until • supply of gold could be procured from London. Before that supply arrived business had resumed its wonted course. SO in toe present case, the manifestation of confidence was all that was needed to enable the existing banks to weather the storm, and to continue their course of usefulness. Actuated by a desire to aid in restoring confidence he moved, I. That this meeting ascribes much of the embarrassment in which the commercial affairs of the country are at pre-eat involved to a want of conthience fur which there is no substantial ground—tending to panic, and its disastrous results.-2. That in the opinion of this naming the banking establishments of the town, Nil-, the Northum. berland and Durham Diorict Bank, and the Newcastle Commercial Banking Company, two Joint-stock banks, end the private tank of Messrs. Lembton and Co., are entitled to the hill and unreeersed um- Wetter of the public, the number and wealth of the shareholders of the former motectitig against the possibility of loss, whilst the prudence and ample petunia, y resources of the latter place their cus tomers in an eweally secure position.-3. That this meeting regards with concern the suspension of the Union Bank; yet, referring to the hat of ih• proprietary, no clotibt can be entertained of the speedy end honourable discharge of all the engagements of that MCI. . Mr. — W. - Cuthbert re:ended the resolutions, and expressed his concurrence in the view taken by the previous spetletr. The resolutions were agreed to unanimously. It was then arranged that them resolutions should be extensively tircu bite,* in the town, for the purpose of calming the public mind; and the proceedings then closed. In the course of Saturday the run upon the banks in the town completely exhausted itself. It is stated that the amounts paid to ter rified depositors on Friday were enormous ; and the manner in which these calls have been met has tended much to e ti excitement and alarm. Nothing authoritative has app respecting the position of the Union Bank. Parties ac quainted with its affairs attribute its difficulties to the invett meat of large sums in iron works and similar undertakings, on which losses have been experienced. LlvEttroot..—HATEB or DISCOVNT.—The following are the rates of diecJunt which ruled at the Brat ch Bank of England yesterday, and at one if not all our ',cal banks Bevan days, 7 per cent. ; one month, 74 per cent. ; two months, 8 per cent. ; ninety-five days, 84 per ce ut.—Lirer- pool Journal, Oct. 23.
