Having quoted, on the authority of the Witness, that several official persons connected with the free church in Yarrow, had been removed from the Duke of Bac clench's property, it is but fair to mention that the lewl agent of the duke has addressed a letter to the paper in question, in which he describes the state inenta u " base, unfounded , and calu mnious." The General Assembly, as might have been ex pected, has condemned the Marriage and Registration Bills, but it is rather remarksble that Professor Ito , hertsoa, of Edinburgh, one of the ablest and most in ", fletential members of the court, made a long and clear *fence of them, but, seeing that the feeling of the OUIII3 was against him, be proposed no counter-motion, and contented himself with simply entering his dis sent.

Serjeant Taff , urd, who appeared to show close against the rule, contended that the requisite notice of the present motion hail Vic.,e riven. It wu founded upon the proviaioni of 7& 8 c. 110, the Joint.Btock Companies Act. The 68th section of that act, which allows execution to issue against an individual share holder, either by . leave of the court or of a judge of the court, upon motion or summons for a rule to show cause, provides "that no such motion shall be made nor summons granted for the purpose of charging any share holder or former shareholder until ten dales' notice , hall have been given to the personemight to be charged thereby."

'these were the prices of Saturday until the close of business, when they left off , lower, at which rates they opened this morning. Reduced Threes were 824 to ;-;. Three and-u-Quarter per Cents., 831 to a. Long Annuities, 8; to 9.16. Exchequer Bills were last quoted 31s. to 355. pre mium. The fall in these bills is exciting some inquiries as to the origin of the sales which should occasion the fall in the premium. The more general solution is, that as the Bank must now be call, d upon by the government for advances on deficiency bills on account of deficient revenue, it has been deemed expe dient to dispose of some portion of the bills already held to a considerable amount to make way foe the demand for accommodation. Another version how ever is that many June bills have been sent in for payment in cash, on account of the reduction of inte rest. Bank Stock was 191 to 3. India Bonds, 20s. to 255. premium. 'the business in the foreign market was almost al together confined to Spanish stocks. Advices from Spain gave assurance that the dividend on the Three per Cents., a small amount after all, would be forth coming when due, which was doubted of before, and so they advanced to and left off at 221 to 3; the Fier s at 121 to 13; Passive at 31 to 1.

Buenos Ayres were done at 23, but quoted 20 to 3. The advicia from Hamburg to the 27th inst. report the rates of discount from 21 to 3 per cent., and money easy. Exchange on London, 13.74. Hopes were entertained of an early adjustment of the Schleswig-Holstein affair. It has been shown that so far as the dividend on l the Three per Cent. Hewes, which becomes due on i the 22nd proximo, the amount in the hands of the public was too unimportant to justify the sopre liensiou of any failure of payment on the part of the French government. The improving position of the treasury account with the Bank of Franco for the, last two weeks, though not so large and decided as should be desirable, is still a satisfactory move is the I right direction. From the 11th to the 25th instant, about 13 millioqs of francs additional have been plac d to the credit cf the treasury in that establish ment. At the some rate, say 61 millions per week, for the four weeks whi 1, reckoning from the' 25th instant, the date of the Bank's last returns, intervene before dividend day arrives, the trea- 1 tory fund would be strengthened by 26 millions more, thus making, with the amount now in hand of 26,1 millions, a total of 324 millions. In the course of ' some remarks on Filthy) it was anticipated that the "returns of the Bank of Franc- next published" might be expected to show a furth r increase, as so the event has proved. At the nine time it was shown that, so far us individual stockholders were concerned, oily about 15 millions it francs would have to be dis bursed for dividends, whilst the 161 millions of the 3 per cent. ltcntes rt maining, which appertain to the sinking fund, might, and probably will, be discharged as heretofore, and under the lase government, in trea sury bonds carrying interest. It is evident that the punctual lullilment ut ob.igations to the public credi tor on this special head need suffer no interruption for at the purple right before hint. There Is much to praise the general composition and inception, and there Is a classic feeling prevailing the whole group, but surely the lower pert of the figure of Too is • little faulty, es if a scanty block et marble had compelled the artist to reduce the figure Irons Ito lair proportion.

THE PHILHAIIIONIC CONCERTS.—The sixth con reit, last evening, was decidedly the best of the mason. The I programme did not contain a single piece which could be i reaaonaoly excepted to, or which did not give pleasure to the audience. The two symphonies which mimmenoed each part were, Mozart's first in C, and Beethoven's second in D— both masterpiece*, and &Maoist , performed. The two over tures which terminated each part were, Sterndale Bennett's Parisina" and Weber's " Freyechtitz." It appeared some. what strange that M. Bennett's overture was conducted neither by Mr. Core nor by its composer, but b) Mr. Lucas. It is a work of merit, but not equal, we think, to his " Naiades." The lest piece at a concert is generally a sort of enfant perdu, serving only to play the company out; but oa this occasion not a single person stirred till the last bar of Weber's won. derful preduction was played—a circumstance from which the directors may take a hest for their future arrangements. Mendelssohn'e first pianoforte concerto in 0 minor was per formed by Miss Kate Loder, in a manner which called forth the warmest applause. The last movement was vehemently and unanimously en , ored. This young lady (she is very young) deserves to be ranked among the most distinguished pianists of the day. Her finger is clear, firm, and rapid ; her execution is without a flaw; her style of phras ing is finished and graceful; and she is peculiarly happy in leer TOCSI expression of cantabile pas sages. With a very little more strength of hand (which of course she will gain) her playing will leave no thing to be desired. Mr. Blsgrove performed a violin con certino by Spohr. He played, as he always doe*, with hie fine silvery tone and perfecxecution ; t the mu 4 wee net remmkably interesting.t e The openin g was exceedii. e gly good, a sort of recitative richly embellished, followed by an elegant and expressive larghetto ; but the principal movement, ou a somewhat trite subject oils palaces was spun out by •mul• titude of unmeaning difficulties.

The fl ARIA thus conalating of the If-mounter, Teaser, Black Engle, and Monkey, st.-v., prooreded rapidly down the river. After is run of movie diotance down the river, the Black Eagle and the Etcoutder came bock to Woolwich, and their lordships re turned to London.

EQUITY COURTS. Before the Lord Chaeceikir. Ex esters NADIN.—LAHDS CLAUSES CONSOLIDSTIoN ACT.—This wu an spinal against an order of the Vice- Chancellor of England. The facts were these: The corpora Lion of Manchest• r purchased, under their act for improve ment of the town, a house from Mr. Nadia, the owner, for 3,0001., to he paid on the conveyance of the house, which was to be executed in a month atter the date of the agree ment. One Dashble, who was in the occupation of the house es a teneot at will, made a claim tor compensation. The corporation having got notice of the claim, paid the purchase money into court, under the abovrmentioo d act. The representative of Nadirs (who died soon after) presented a petition to the court to get the moni y out. That was up posed by Drabble, and the Vitt-Chancellor ordered 3801. of the mon. yto be paid to him, the rest to the petitioner. He appealed from that order.—The Lord Chancellor, after hearing Mr. Bacon end Mr. Humphreys, Mr. Smart and Mr. Milne, Mr. J.

COURT OF QUEEN'S BENCH. Sittings in Banco. THE QUEEN v. Brews •sts ANOTHEE.—CHHECH lioScs.-10 this case a rule had been obtataid for a man damus, to be dir. eted to the defendants, taro of the justices of the county of Surrey, calling on them to show cause why they bbould not issue a warrant to enforce the payment of a church rate, ni.de in the parish of Bed•lington, on a Mr Ashley, who r.rhised to pay the same.—Mr Pashley now showed cause *pieta the rule, and contended that the ma gistrates were runt in reliving toiesueawarrant,inumuch as the rate on the eerie of it was harlot nd had been decided to be so at the petty sessions at Croydon. The title of the rate was such that the maeietrates let it could out be enforced. It ran thus:—" We, the chuschWardeas and others, inhabitant , of the parish of 13. ddington sod hamlet of Warrington, in the county of Surrey, du hereby, at our vestry meetianr held for that purpose, rate and assess all end every the inhahit nts of the said parish and hamlet, for and towai els the r. pairs tit the church, and other incidental charges of the , aid pati-la and hamlet ;" not matters iecident to the churcn, to the celebration of divine service, to the repairing the hi t•ric, or any other thing for which it might' be contended in a court eotlesiastical that a church rate might have heen made. On th's ground he contended tnat the rate was bad, and the magistrates had no r.ght to enf orce ih—Mr. Mellor, in support of the rule, argued that the word. tt incidental charges of the Baia Fairish and hamlet" measly meant incidental ti the purposes for which church rates were syndic .hle; thst the validity of the rate depended on tie resolution of the vestry, and tee tide might be added at any time; that the meg:strap a had no taistrettou, but were bound to issue their warrant, the only court where the validity of the rate could he inquired into b iog an • cel , rias Heel court.—Mr. Jus•ice Colt radii. : f_suppose the ma. istret• s had issued—first, an order ti pay the rate, slll , i alters ants a warrant to levy a distress for it, the p irty not choosing to ap pear, he might bring an action of trespass retained the in-gia trines, merely putting in the rate, if it was bad on the face • of it.—Mr. Mellor said the application to the mania . orates by the church ward. n woe merely to eousene the party to shot, CIWW, sod he thought they ouaht to Lave done en, in order that the questions might have been fairly ra'aer.L—Lord Daman sod be did l nut think the court would lir at all itisliti.d in dirocting the nuegistrates to issue their warrant. Tnty had a fight to see the present, mai ands more than ample can hardly fail to be possessed, are indeed in possession now, unless they should be applied to other purposes. The gravity of the financial situation will come, however, to be more severely tested hereafter—say un the 22nd of September, when the half-year's dividend on the 6 per cent. renter', constituting alone more than one-half (nearly 3 milliards) of the whole feuded debt of France, falls due, along with those on the 4 and 44 per cents. Of the 5 per cent. renter', a large proportion of which represents the loan contracted with the house of Baring after the termination of the war, for the prompt payment of the indemnities exacted by the allied powers then in the occupation of France, a con ' oiderable amount is believed to be still held in this country, and therefore the question of payment will more nearly concern individual interests here. There are, however, other obligations of debt, in addition to the funded debt, which the government must be prepared to face, as they mature from day to day, or at periods not exactly designated. According to M. Gartner Pages there was a floating debt of 670 millions bequeathed to him by the late government, with 326 millions of Treasury Bonds be sides. Taking eto account the bonds for 60 millions of francs since issued to the Bank of France against a loan to the amount, and those given in lieu of specie to savings banks depositors requiring the return of their funds, of which no precise account appears, it • will be considerably within the mark, perhaps, to es a timate the total amount of Treasury Bonds now out at 450 millions. From the nature of the floating debt . about one-half may probably be regarded as not strictly of an exigible description ; it forms a sort of p ermanent resource of the treasury, upon which, how ever, interest is payable. For the part of which the reimbursement is exigible, and must be met, the govern ment may, and will doubtless, resort to issues of more Treasury Builds as far as possible, should re sources from regular revenue fail. Interest, of course, • must be paid upon Treasury Ronde, and this in terest enters for one of the items of weekly or monthly payment by the Bank of France on trea sury account. But the amount of this interest can at i• no one period be of any unmanageable magnitude, if, as stated by the finance minister, they are generally drawn at such dates as to Gist, ibute them regularly if not equably for payment over the different mouths of 1848 and 1819. The interest will therefore be- • come payable with the difference of dates. As to the repayment of principal, that is not to be expected in the present circumstances of France, nor, so far as can be foreseen, in any such change essentially for the better as the next year or more seems likely to produce. The holders of the bonds will perforce have to be content with new bonds in exchange when the old are preeen•ed for the reim bursement of principal. The score of interest, sup posing 300 millions of these bonds to be out, would amount after all, at 5 per cent., to 23 millions of franca only, say one million eterliug per annum, or rather more than eighty-three thousand pounds per month, assuming the dates of the bonds to be about regularly distributed over the year iu monthly parts, as asserted. For France and her creditors the consideration of 1 most pressisg and important concern is, after all, the progress of revenue. The rate of current expenditure is evidently enurmuue, what with armies of genies mobiles, armies of mobs in the streets, armies of idle labourers in the facetiotedy styled national workshops, and regular arms in the field a for external action. From ull that can be I gleaned from French journals and private advice. the receivers-general make but extremely indifferent way in the collection of the direct and internal taxes, • which constitute the great bulk of French revenue. As loans must be an impossibility where credit does not exist, even if capitalists could be found, the &o perate resource may come to be the indefinite multi plication of bank piper money inconvertible, its con sequent depreciation, and for the rest the history of the aasignats of the first revolution repeated. With the continuation of peace abroad, and the restoration of order at home, all these evils may be averted, for there is notning really desperate yet, however dis couraging, in the financial situation of France.
