THE MONETARY CRISIS AT HAMBURG. (IT ILINCTSIC urn 1111111XATIONAL TILISZA2I.) (now ora owx coaarrownsirr.) HAMBURG, BA7I7II.DAT. The Senate has just convened another extraor dinary meeting of the Burgerechaft for tomorrow, to ratify a loan of ten million mares bunco contracted for by the Austrian National Bank. (nos ocr owx HAMBURG, 1:12C. 10. In the midst of the most fearful catastrophe that has ever broken over this city—the great fire of 1842 not even excepted—and as if to cheer the drooping spirits of our merchants sad hold out hopes of better days as soon as this crisis has blown over, the annual tables of the trade of Hamburg, published by the Board of Commercial Statistics, have last appeared. Like the olive-branch of old, they point out (by official figures) the great increase in the trade of this city in 1846, as compared with that of 1865, in which the transactions had reached • height far above all preceding years. Ac cording to these tables which it is but justice to remark are made op in the most masterly manner, and contain the statistical details of every article of import and export—the total value of the imports and exports at Hamburg daring the year 1866 amounted to 1,268,306,810 marks base*, which, as compared to the 1,036,779,790 in 1866, show as increase of 2321 millions of marks bane*, or nearly 23 per cent. This is very encouraging, and has not failed to make • oorrespooding favourable imprudent on our merchants, and to allay many apprehensions for the future. On the whole, I may say that the general feeling of the Exchange is decidedly more favourable. There have been no fresh failures reported today, and this, cespled wit► the satisfactory arrangement for the support of the house et Pontoppidan and Co., has had a good effect. On the other hand, the crisis cannot be pronounced over till tie end of January next, when the acceptance, will have run oft, end it will be ascertained which are good end Willa are rotten. Last even ing it was iconedantly reported that a grit-rats house wee in difleulties, but the report is unfounded. Indeed, backed m the haw is by the powerful sup port of the governments of Russia and Austria, it is dealt to credit any such rumour. In the meantime the wrecks ceased by the storm of the teat fortnight are beginning to hetame psis hilly apparent in the domestic arrangements of pi rate families. Everywhere retrenchment is the order of the day, equipages and hones are sold of tutors and gortrneues hare notice to leant, ser vants are discharged, the theatres are deserted, and no one has the courage to give the halls and dinner parties usual at this season. I may here mention that one single job-master, Herr Hoppe, who con tracts for famishing thallium with equipages by the year and month, has no less than twenty-eight thrown on his hands by families unable to continue such an expensire tummy. A demist:eh from Vienne, dated the 10th, says:— " The Bark of Vicuna has lest a sum of eight millions of silver dories (twisty millions of hews) for the relief of the commercial Muses at Hamburg. This sum was lent off by a special train," BRAZILS AND THE PLATE. By the Royal Mail der Tyne, with& arrived possiday It Ssatlimpsss, we love risks. li.

The funds opened firmly this morning, but have since given way, and are now quoted 1 per cent. lower than they closed yesterday. Business is quiet. Consols for the Bth January were first marked 911 and 92, and are now quoted 911 to / ex div. The 'Three per Cent. Reduced are marked 911 to 1 ; the New Three per Cents., 911 to 1 ; Bank Stock, 219 ; Exchequer Bills, 4s. di.. to par; Exchequer Bonds, 1858, 99 } and 99 ; ditto, 1859, 98 ; and India Bonds, 28s. dia. Turkish Six per Cents. are rather flatter, at 921 to 931. Buenos Ayres Bonds have risen to about 90, owing to the receipt by Messrs. Baring. of favourable advice' and a large remittance. Other foreign stocks exhibit little alteration. Sales are recorded a. follows:—Dutch Four per Cent. Certificates at 951; Mexican Bonds, for ac count, at 181 to 18; ; Peruvian Four-and a-Half per Cents., for account, at 75 ; Russian Five per Cents., at 104; Spanish New Deferred Three per Cents., at 251; Turkish Six per Cents., at 92k; ditto for Account, (18th Dec.), at 931, 931, and 921 ; ditto Guaranteed Four per Cents., at 991; ditto for account at 100 and 991. The India and China mails are expected to be delivered in London on Monday morning. At the Sank of England yesterday the applications for accommodation did not exceed moderate limits. In the disoount market the supply of money is in creasing; there is a greater disposition upon the part of bankers to make loans; and the quantity of eligible bills is decreasing as engagements are becoming contracted. High clam bills are readily discounted in the open market at a sensible reduc tion from the Sauk rate. In the Stock Exchange also the supply of money was larger, and loans on Government ramifies up to the January settlement were obtainable at 6 to 7 per cent. per annum. The Bank of England yesterday purchased about 218,0001. in newly imported gold, chiefly Australian. A considerable amount yet remains to be sent in. The fortnightly settlement in shares and foreign stocks will commence on Monday (" continuation day") and terminate on Wednesday next. A feature of the Stock Exchange yesterday was a renewed demand for Indian Guaranteed Railway shares. We hear of a large purchase of Madras Railway Extension shares. The steamer Gambia has brought 2,000 ounces of gold and 4,0001. in specie,worth in all about 11,6001., from the West Coast of Africa. The shipments of silver for Hamburg by the steamer Caledonia, which will leave the Thames to day, amount to 50,1481. About 21,0001. in silver arrived in the Thames on Thursday from the Continent. We understand that the East India Company are buying silver, for shipment by the Pere, which will leave on the 20th inst. We have a long list of failures to report. The most important is that of Messrs. R. Hems, Semon, and Co., foreign hankers and exchange dealers. Their embarrassments excite general regret, the house being much respected, although its exist ence dates from only about two years ago, when the original capital was 50,0001. The transactions hav ing become very extensive, it is apphended that the total liabilities will amount to th ree-quarters of a million sterling, or upwards. It will be seen, however, from the subjoined circular, that the firm " confidently hope" to meet all their engagements in full : London, 4, Copthall-court, Dec. 11,1867. Sir —lt la with great regret that we hare to announce to you that in oonaequence of heavy lomminatsiasel through the failure of various firms, whom pew we hold, we are obliged fur the present to suspend s a te. Our books are placed Is the lands of Mews. , Youngs, and Co.. who will, as early am possible, so • statement of or- affairs. Is the meantime we may venture to state that, although on &blithe see large, we confidently hops to be able to me d ell our eagegements Ia fall.—We are, sir, your most obedient serwarde, R. Hama. llsmox and Co. The next hams is that of Messrs. Wienholt, Wehner and Co., merchants, chiefly in the Indian, Australian, and continental trades. The liabilities are estimated at from 300,0001. to 330,0004 An nexed is the circular issued: No.. 30 and 31, Lombard-street, Deo. 11, 18.57. It has become our painful duty to inform you that we hare felt it incumbent on us to amend our payment+. The com plete prostration of trade both in this country and on tbs Continent, putting it quits out of our power to form an soar rate estimate either of the value of the produce in which we are interested, or our liability on bills negotiated, or Mee counted by us still miming, coupled • ,th the impomibolty on so sudden an emergency of drawing on our resources In ladia sad Australia, compels so to take such a step.

Elmenhorst and Co., engaged in trade with the Continent, have also stopped, with moderate liabilities, and address their creditors as follows: Mark-Ime, London, Dec. 11 1857. With the meet paisfrl (ratings, we have to inform you that in consequence of lbs rensat [Owes here rid abroad ws have suspended ear paymehts. We have placed our ac counts in the hands of Yams.

Montoya, Baena, and Co., of Winchester buildings, in the Booth American trade, have like wise stopped payment. owing to the stoppage of their house at Bogota (New Granada), which has arranged to pay twenty sh il lings in the pound. It is stated that the hour ham very few creditors in London. Mr. A. Montoya, of the London firm, is Vice-Consul for the Republic of New Granada. The acceptances of Mr. J. Gallard, of Lombard street-chambers, hare also been returned. This is a commission house, with Breach and Swim con nexions. The liabilities are believed to be very limited. It has also transpired that the private bank of Mews. Farley, Lavender, Owen, and Clutch, of Worcester, has stopped payment. This bank was established in 1794. Its authorised note issue is 15,4631., and its actual circulatioe, according to last Tuesday's Gazette, was only 4,.2941. Thepartaers are Mr. John Owen and Mr. John Mathew Ontch, both of Worcester. The connexions of the bank are un derstood to be chiefly amongst agriculturists, and the liabilities will probably prove inconsiderable. A meeting of the creditors of Messrs. Barber, Rosenauer, and Co., who stopped payment on the 3rd inst., is called for Friday next. Owing to the numerous failures, considerable gloom . prevailed yesterday on 'Change, and it was impossible to sell any billi on the Continent except those of bankers and first-class houses. As regards drafts on Belgium, Paris, Hamburg, and 3 months paper on Holland, the rates quoted were rather be low those current on Tuesday. The quotations were in most cues very irregular.

Atoording to the telegrams published, the ex change at Bombay on London appears to be consi derably more unfavourable, whilst that at Calcutta has improved. Advices from Hamburg state that the sum granted by the Danish government to assist Mesas, Pontoppidan and Co., of that eitr, is 1,600,000 ' marks bunco, or about 110,0001. sterling. It is mentioned that the National Bank at Copenhagen is asking from the government asostance to the extent of four or eve millions of six dollars, in order to take up and renew numerous drafts on Hamburg, and to grant liberal assistance to the Danish merchants. A strong hope is expremed that the government will accede to the requeet, with a view to prevent the spread of the panic g to Denmark, the more especially se they have means at their command, arming from th payments on account of the Sound Dues.

Chid %Ai..es FRIDAY iiIININO. Owing to the influx of gold and to the expectation of a very favourable Bank return, the funds opened this morning with buoyancy. In the course of the morning it became known that fresh intelligence from India had arrived; and, a rumour being spread that the English hemmed in at Lncknow had been relieved, a fresh advance took place. At the best point, Consols were quoted 1 per cent. higher than yesterday. When the official telegrams were published, it was seen that they did not' fully con firm the favourable statement referred to, and a relapse took place. The closing quotations were only per cent. above those of yesterday, but, not withstanding the occurrence of several fresh failures amongst the foreign houses, the market retained a strong appearance. Consols, for the Bth Jan., which closed yesterday at 911 to ex div., touched this morning 92 " buyers," and had relapsed at the close to 9lt to 1. The official business report is u follows Three per Cent. Consols, for account (Bth Jan.), 914, 92, 01*, 91 t, 92.91! ex div. ; Three per Cents.

India Bonds were dealt in at 335. to 275. die. Turkish Six per Cents. were in great demand to day, and rase i tot per cent., being quoted at 4 o'clock 93 to i. After that hoar the price was 931 to k n . The Guaranteed Four per Cents. were firm, at 99 to 100. Other foreign stocks were quiet. adian Government Six per Cents. have risen to 1084 to 109 k.

There have been several buyers In the market during the =rent week, but their object would appear to have been to acquaint themselves more with the state of the market than to purchase. Their trenaeotione have been exceedingly limited, and confined either to abso lute requirements or goods aimed below the market peke; in fact, their inquiries bars been chiefly for the latter. But there is no quantity of them to be met with. T. sound state of the woollen trade does not necesetiate any Aweless sacrifice in this direction.
