IN AI CUZATHIM AND GILL. The bankrupts were described as shipwrights, of Stroud, sad Iriendsbury, in Kent. This was the meeting for the tut examination. The accounts, pr. pared by Means. Harding and Pollens, of Guildhall-chambers, showed a sum of 1091. due to creditors, with a comparatively large amount of assets in good debts, 8961. ;in profits, 3141. The peed. had b to 9441. (during 22 months) ; trade expenses, ; inter, st, : drawn out by Cheatham, 283/. ; by bid, 2141.; losses, 4421. Mr. Linklater supported the bankrupts. Mr. Cocoas represented a creditor, who sought to prove. Mr. Lawrence appeared fur Mr. Pennell, the official assiguee in the ease of Staee, a bankrupt, and applied far Wine payment out of the estate, in consequence of a debt due to 'Lace ;,'but the court were of opinion that it could not f. re. Mr. Compton, for the assignees, did not oppose the paw ing to the bankrupts, but required that the balance sbeshl ' to amended in reference to the particulate of some bill of ichonge, the acceptances of which, in the bankrupts' name., they declared to be forgeries. It appeared they had been accepted without authority by State, who had since been committed at Rochester on the charge, and was now out on hail. His Honour doubted whether he could pass the bankrupts under those eircumitancee. After consulting Mr. Com missioner Holroyd, he decided to adjourn thu ease until alter the Maidstone 1111112C11. IN R BUCKLAND. The bankrupt was a wine-merchant in Quecnbitho. lie now come up for hi. last examination on a balance-sheet prepared by Mr. Hutton, of Moorgatc-street, showing dtbti, 1,1691•; assets, about 1401. The b.tukrupt pared unopposed. MIDDLESEX SESSIONS. THIB DAY. The December general session was resumed this morning at the courthouse, Weimirater, by adjournment from Clerkenwell. The calendar contains the names of 64 pri soners for trial, d of whom arc charged with felony. REPRE-sENTATION OF WEST KW:CT.—It nppenra from the organisation of political parties in this district, there is every probability of a a:rennin's contest at the gene ral election. We know not whether it is the intention of Mr. Thomas lAw !lodges, one of the present members, to retire; but we learn on good authority that Sir Joseph Hawley, Bart., of Chevening, and Mr. J. Whitman, • county magistrate, residing at Maidstone, will stand on the liberal interest. The conservative association, of course, support Sir Edmund Filmer, one of the present members; several meetings have been hcld to determine as to who 'hall be brought forward us his colleague. Some time since it was agreed to support Mr. Stoddart Douglas, but owing to a severe affliction, that gentleman will not come forward. Sir Walter Riddell was then named; however, some dif ference prevailed amnrg the party, which has led to Viscount Hulincsdalc being requested to come forward, and although hi. consent has not been definitively received, it may be almost considered aa,the fact. —Kentish Mercury. THE REPRESENTATION or LEOMINSTER. We are requested (by an authorised correspondent), says the Hen: curd Times, to state that the ramour alluded to in our last, as to Mr. Frederick Peel becoming a candidate for Bristol at the next election, is devoid of foundation, and that the hon. gentleman has no intention of severing his parliamentary connexion with this borough. REPRESENTATION OF IPSWICH. —The Suffolk papa state that Mr. Charles Gilpin, of Ilishopsgate-street, will be • candidate, on the liberal interest, for the borough of Ipswich, at the nest general election. Mr. Gilpin is a member of the Court of Common Council._ _ _ THE NewronTlkntocults.—Mr. Lindsay, an ex telmive merchant and shipowner of London, is confidently spol..n of as a candidate for the representation of these bomuuhs, in case of an anticipated vacancy. HOBERT HANBL:RY, Egg., ham been elected a trus tee of the Loudon Lilo Association, in the place of Michael Eeq., who has resign. d. NATIONAL FREEHOLD LAND SOCIETY. —A public held on Vriday at the Manor Houma, Hackney, for the purpose of promoting the objects of the above are• elation. A NEW CIRCULAR REI.ATINO TO 31asrinue As- FIIITANTS hu been issued by the Admiralty : Its provisions are as follows They are to be limited in entry to such sandal as the board may Had neemsary. They am to be examined previous to entry at the Naval Col kit'. A candidate must not be less than fourteen nor mire than sixteen years of age, unless selected from the merchant service, when the ago is to be extended to 14, if he has mined two years at sea. Ile is to pass the same rumination aR a naval cadet if 11; if 10, in be will be reciaired to understand the practical use of the sextant and the mode of keeping a ship's reckoning by workbag a day's work, and obtaining the latitude by ob servance; if at 18, he will by required to know the mode of oldsiaiug longitude by chronometers, the variation of the compess, and explain the mode of rigging lower masts and bowsprit, and the more simple evolutions of working a Alp under sail; he must servo three years before lee Pus for secoud master, and then may un e• l) an elinniustion before his captain and m aim lieutenant. Masters' eminent!. whilst serving arc to be allowed the benefit of the naval instructor free of charge. The master of the ship is to instruct him in seamanship. " Want paid otf the masters'-assistants will be entered in ▪ urd-ship 110 T such time as the Admiralty may direct, or awn ii-elected for another appointment, provided they P" ,,, rood certificates, and are recommended by their room Ladino °dicer. When they have completed their regular period of servitude, and pared far seeond-master, they will be p 1 ind as the nary list in that rank, and, when ers,dur e d, lases the pay and commission of the saw; bat they will nut be eligible for promotion to master until they IL , ve reed two years further as second-master. When me temporarily abroad in navigation and seamanship they are to be rated as acting soooed-master. It appears tie whole service will be eight years before being eligible fm prhe s ,, t ,„ a year . banns passing the hest examination, three years after passing it, and two years elk s rms. and rated as second-master.

MECHrB BALANCE SHEET. TO THII IDITOI or Ties =PAUL have dictated a few rather hasty observa tions on Mr. Mecbi's balance sheet, and shall be obliged by your inserting them in the Express if you think them worthy. I beg just to mention that 1 am a thorough free-trader, and no whining protectionist. I have supported Mr. Cob den in St. Andrew's Hall, Norwich, and have get up peti tions in the days of protection in favour of free-trad e ; an d last year I published my farming accounts for 20 years, to show that under cora laws there was no certainty in making rents. I regret to say that I cannot make rents under free trade; but still I much prefer free-trade to corn laws.— Your's obediently, THOS. LOMB, TAYLOR. I'.B.

TO THE EDITOR TEE EMUS._ Slit,—l have enabled with considerable interest Mr. Ideehi's long-lookeillwann account, which disappoints me, as I expected to see a regular amount from tbe com mencement of his taking Tiptrce Fink though 1 must confess, having had NM experience in brazing, I did not think he could show a preitede result from such probes outlay as report esp bee sebum place. Mr. Mechi bas shown enough to eidisfy soy Mar that his system is radically wrong, sad, If followed tsy_Sbe tesenedmose, must bnng ruin upon tram mon q them peer rally pursued.

Mr. Hecht'. hem Yet genteelly pursited—t=s 11=4, not big* geed condition. With ali defines I submit that Mrs IhreW shows by his account that he is net a true far mer, but rather a meal trearanfeeturer. He or anybody else might fat and sell his 2,0001 worth of meat without occupying or farming land, as tbe food consumed seems to be, at least in past part, .yierebeeed • and when it is noto rious that 1001 . weeds of lied giveise cattle will not add anything like 11111. W the van* of the same, it is clear that Mr. Meehi's gams suet be a king one. He admits that his a parent arises from large quantity of food bat gem be at the same time allow that :he prin ciples, polish. so much is bad ? Oh, no! He expects to ba amply compeasehed by the additional manure obtained, and I suppose next year the 72 acres of wheat will be esti mated at 10 eaembs per acre instead of 9 combs ; but this increase of 1/. per acre, or a total of 721. from wheat will be a poor cetera for Lila or 6001. so expended arid sunk. For such outlay to be remunerative, the productive quality of the whole Wu should he increased in value 31. tot/. per acre, and, if Mr. Mechi continues to pursue his system, he mast go on increasing the productive quality in the mass proportions in after years. am sure, front Mr. Mechi's known character, he Ine wished to place a fair statement or his aceouuts before the public, but I beg to submit that much more information to required to satisfy the farmer on many points, and peed cubarly that there is ground for estimating that 72 aerie will yield 9 coumba per acre. To warrant this estimate there must have been in previous years some large outlay on the land, as Mr. Miehi has often stated that the soil is naturally poor. Now, to get at a statement of this outlay, the money sunk from the commencement of his farming should appear in his account ; and this should be added to tb amount of the capital, instead of estimating the value ef each outlay at Michaelmas, 1850, and converting it into additional rent to the landlord. It dues nut appear on the lace of the account what the 2,7001. capital represents. The year's outlay ts 6,5831., sad in the common way of cal. gelation it requires at least so much capital to take a farm. I wish to inquire how it is that only three-and-a-half per cent. allowed for the capital; the old and fair method is to calculate that the tenant should make 10 per cent., out of which housekeeping expenses Me to be _void, I do not mean on the scale which I have bend Nz. Nechi keeps house, but so that a tenant of 170 wee may support his family respectably. Although Mr. Mechi allows ouly 31 per cent. interest fur the capital, he allows nothing out of the farm for housekeeping. I would just observe, that in taking stock at Michaelmas, 1850, there is no notice of the cattle food, such as corn or ell sake, in hand at that time, and with such a number of cattle, sheep, and pigs, I should apprehend the quantity Was considerable, and this would, of course, swell the amount of capital. I would also point out that the number of been at hlichaelcnas ' 1331, must be quite inadequate kw Oa eying on a farm of 170 acres, nearly, if not all, arable, se& I beg to submit that the labour of cultivating, easb a bee, 72 acres being in wheat and 271 in potatoes, emend be properly done even with wages at Bs. per week for 2401., and I think there mast be some mistake in the outgoing fur tithes and rates, 581. being only 7s. pee acre. Union there is a modus the sum is only sufficient for tithe rent; at any rate in this district 10s. per acre will hardly cover tithes and rata. Instead of the account Mr. Mechi has favoured us with, I should like to have seen the actual receipts and payments for the different items he has specified in each year during his occupancy; this would have shown how much rent and interest he had really made, and then allowance might have been made if nevi sary for the difference in value of the stock and tillages oa entering, and at Michaelmas, 1851, thus the estimating of crops would have been avoided. Concluding that Mr. Mschi recommends his high systole for general adoption by the farmers, for, to be good for say thing it ought to be desirable for all, 1 shall point out a few of the difficulties which it strikes me must prevent lb being generally punned. First. The capital embarked la farming must be doubled, and in some cases trebled. Eng land contains upwards of thirty millions of acres; and, suppose that 20 millions of them farmed with a capital of 61. an acre, we have then a capital of 121 millions so em ployed, and, as Mr. Mechi admits; his capital is 1131. an acre, and it is probably half as much more, it follows that the fanners, to follow his system, would require 200 millions of additional capital to start with, and of course every fans of 170 acres and upwards must have its steam-ovule, and arappocin/ one-third of England is in farms of that size Seem 60,000 engines will be required, the cost of which I used sot estimate, nor show the difficulty, or rather Imo gelleibility of raising such an enormous capital. 'Sat where, I would ask, is the additional quantity of odds and shep for such a system to come from, and the Did aseswery to fatten such additional live stuck, and whoa dl the timers of 170 acres have attained the same state of perflacisa that Mr. Mcchi has arrived at, and can send se much meat and corn to market as he dues, have you and he considered what is to become of it, and at what price beef and mutton and wheat will, under such circumstances, be likely to sell, for the more there is at market no doubt the leas it is worth. I fear it would be returned to the fanner s and the value of it would appear on the creditor side of ble asseeat as additional manure. If the common system of farming and grazing supplies 4 *ea (of 141b5.) of meat and 3 quarters of wine on wee per annum, Mr. Mechi's principle would, if generally amid eat, supply 40 stones of meat and 4 to 5 quarters of wheat ea acre. And, again, I ask, what can be done with sash Increased supply, and at what prices should we hear of hag mutton, and wheat being sold in Smithfield and Mark-lane If Essex now sends two million stone of meat to Louden annually, and half that county should adopt Mr. Mochro system, the supply of meat to Smithfield from that distriee dew would be equal to the present supply of all England. = sa e p i = should be but partial) y arlopled,,_thooe it will nut only lose, a s Mr. it dee, Inelbele awn prudent neighbours will feel the swat fires se market being lowered by increment NMI use Bet I need nut trouble you further to show WIWI new light would lead us. Toe farmers are oldest es Mr. Mean for trying his experiments and giving thornlike benefit, as far as ba has dune, of his experience. Dog. ads mittiug that his manufacturing of meat has on the 11111116 bees profitable to himself, I would ask him to eemillar lila would he the effect of such a system ou the peel hula &mem, who must continua to make only IMO ai MIN an acre, whilst he makes 40 stones of meat an SOON ilf Ws erten were carried out by a few hundred farmers c. la addition to himself.

THIS DAY. Two o'Crom. The English stack market remains firm, additional confidence being imparted by the continued rise on the French Bourse. The result of the election in France is, of course, the chief object of interest, though no doubt is entertained as to the result of the de claration that will be officially made. Meanwhile business in the Stock Exchange is restricted, there being little disposition to operate extensively in any department. Consols' have only varied from buyers to sellers at 97. They are now quoted 97 to 3 ex div. for the openin/ of the 16th January, being a further rise elk since Saturday afternoon, and an advance of 3 since last Monday. To-morrow the purchases on account of the sinking fund will be renewed. The official report of the day's business is as follows :—Three per Cent. Consols for account, 973, 963,, 973 ex div.; Three per Cent. Reduced 974, 3; New Three-and-a-Quarter per Cents., 981, 3„ ; Long Au-unities, 1860, 7 1-16; ditto 30 years, 1859, 6 13-16. Business in the floating debt is decidedly more active, and Exchequer Bills have risen Is., the pre sent quotation being 495. to 325. prem., with a good many buyers offering. In India Bonds the only bantam has been a solitary sale at 60s. prem. Very few transactions have been concluded in the foreign market, but Sardinian Bonds and Russian Four-and-a-Half per Cents, are better. The market for this latter stock has evinced a decided upward tendency for some time, which has been partially kept in check by sales on French account, parties on the other side of the Channel, who purchased at the range of 94 to 96, realising a handsome pro fit. The full payment on Sardinian Bonds having been completed this month, this stock stands at a considerable advance on late rates, and is be coming more in favour with investors. Sales of French Itentes in small parcels continue to offer, but the realization on this side does not appear to be usually effected on favourable terms. To-day's business list is as follows: Brazilian Old Five per Cents., 95, 941; ditto New, 1129 and 39, 94. Dutch Four per Cent. Certificates, 90. French Five per Cent. Rentes, 101 fr. ; ditto Three per Cents., 641 r. 75c. (exchange, 25fr. 25.) Mexican Bonds, for ac(ount, 31st Ike., 263, t. Russian Four-and-a- Half per Cents., 102,1, I, 3.

The market for tho Californian Gold Mining shares remains steady, with attention chiefly engaged with the settling in Nouveau Mondes, fixed for to-day. These shares are rather scarce, and aro now quoted buyers at 9-10 prem. In Ague Frills there was a rise of 10s. on Saturday afternoon, business being done at 13 prem., and the improvement is to-day maintained, the present rate being 1 3-16 to 5-16 Fem. Other descriptions are firm, with more busi ness offering. 371 671 Pa di : 6 64 16 16 64 7 444 IS 11l II:1 60 I I . 64 644 6 2 die 7 6 . 3 11 S it 3 11 dla 354 '6 27 76 1 1 Si 31 11 d iii IS di. 3 2 die 6 7 11 7 the 74 6; 4 dig pit.' 13 164 12 $44 9 9$ 7 1 SATURDAY Eras's°. This week the import of a large quantity of gold quartz is a feature which attracts great attention. lf, as seems likely, this direct importation from Cali fornia continues, it will most materially affect com mercial operations, because, at present, bullion re mitted for goods sent to California goes to Philade delphia, and there being coined,is brought here. This transit produces an unfavourable influence in tke Atlantic states, interfering with the markets, and affecting the exchanges. The large amount of bullion in the Bank of Eng land, reported in last night's returns, excites much interest. The total was given at 16,920,988/. ; and as the imports of this week exceed the exports, it is supposed the bullion already exceeds 17,000,0001., and will be so reported in the next returns. As the probable accumulation is higher than any within the experience of the public, it may be useful to refer to the maximum amounts of bullion within the last twenty years. From an examination of these returns it appears that until 1844 the bullion never reached 16,000,0001. On the 30th March in that year it amounted to 16,322.0004, and after a decline it rose again in May, and was throughout June above 16,500,00 UL. being on the 21st June 16,639,3131. In 1846 it was again above 16,000,0001., the highest figure being 16,366,0681. At the end of 1849 it reached 16,000,0001., and in December of that year 17,000,0001., namely, on the 15th, 16,991,2611., on the 22nd, 17,080,6421., and on the 29th, 17,016,1631. Oa the sth January, 1830, it was 17,020,4801., and on the 23rd March of the same year, 17,293,6781., with every prospect of a large advance. The silver crisis however commenced, and although the bullion for a long time kept near 17,000,000. it did not advance. At Paris, however, 14 U lUS that extraordinary aseensional movement whseh on the 18th September touched the maximum of 25,063,3811., one of the largest accumulations of treasure ever made. It will be observed that this week the Bank of France total is 22,303,3411. It will be seen from the above analysis that once only of late years, namely about this period in 1849, has the Bank of England bullion advanced to suck an extent as that now reported, and u we know large remittances are coming forward, we aro jar tided in expecting, if no political events interpose, an unexampled supply of treasure. By the further decline in the bullion above noted, the stock is reduced to twenty-two millions and a half —still a very high figure. The falling off is mainly in the departments. The continuous increase in the amount of gold deposited with the bank is another feature worthy . of attention. The increase in the go vernment securities is apparently caused by the Mum of 10,000,000 f. having been " advanced to the city of Paris on the provisional loan of 20,000,000f. 5 This is a new item in the creditor account of the bank.

We have a further import of 28,7851. in Australian gold, by the Bondicar, just arrived at Gravesend from Sydney . The total imports may thus be taken at upwarae of 600,000/. The supplies of silver from this market during the week ending Thursday last, as shipped direct from the port of London, amount to 172,900 ounces, or 43,2001., of which 137,900 oz. were in coin, and 15,000 oz. in bars. The account in detail is as fol lows: silver coin, to Rotterdam, 109,000 oz.; to Boulogne, 2,900 oz. • to Belgium, 46,000 or. Silver bars : to Boulogne, 1,000 oz.; to Rotterdam, 14,000 oz.

MINES. (Prim the tinily News.) SATURDAY EVENING. A very large amount of business has again been transacted this week, and the demand for dividend shares has been greater than during any week in the year. This is accounted for both by the abundance of money and the favourable view the general public arc beginning to take of dividend mines, which can with a very trifling risk be purchased to pay 15 and 20 per cent. per annum. A very general impression prevails that the market will continue to manifest an improving appearance for some time to come, the present period being so decidedly favourable to mining business. The amount of capital afloat in the market and seeking employment will be further largely increased in a few weeks by the payment of the dividends on Consols and other government and miscellaneous stocks, so that there is every ap- peamnce of mineral enterprise continuing to main tam a prominent position in public attention. In Alfred Consols a further rise has taken place, and West Ciundons have advanced from lOU to 1201. In the market for the Californian gold mining shares there has been a fair amount of business during the week. Business is marked to-day in Agua Fria, at 11, 2, 1:1, 2;; Nouveau Monde, 14, ; Ave Maria, I, 4.

DIRECT EXETER, PLYMOUTH, AND DEVONPORT RAILWAY.—On Saturday, a meeting in this matter was held before the Master in Chancery Sir William Horne, to make a call of 400/. each on the members of the managing committee, and which had been suspended during the pendency of an appeal refused the other day by the court above, to have the order fur winding-up the company dis charged. Mr. Roxburgh and Mr. Hope, in resuming the application for this call, to meet the coats incurred by the official manager and other matters, amounting to 2,0001., explained the liability of the parties to meet it, Mr. Terrell, who appeared on their behalf, opposing it. The Master, in giving judgment, said it was clear from the state of the company's affairs that there was an urgent necessity for some money, and that these gentlemen in any event must be liable for the debts incurred. He considered also they had made themselves liable, by the peculiar part they had taken in the transactions, having, in the first instance, presented a petition to the court, praying that the company might be wound up,and then , after it had been determined that they alone were liable to pay the debts, presenting a second petition which had been dismissed with costs, praying that the order for winding up might be discharged and the pro ceedings declare' void. They had also, it would appear, in the proceedings .for winding up, endeavoured, in their own relief, to extend the liability to as many others as they possibly could, and under these circumstances he should make the call on the six members of the managing com mittee. INSPECTING-GENERALSHIP OF CAVALRY.—We be lieve the only appointment vacated by the brevet which has yet been decided, and that prcepectively, is the inspecting generalship of cavalry.

Good dry parcels were readily disposed of at prices fully equal to those of last Monday, but ill-con ditiamed samples hung on hand, factors being ;unwilling to make any concessions. Foreign Wheat sold in retail at late rates. Choice qualities of malting Barley maintained their value. but secondwy sorts of malting and distillicg were emier to purchase. Oats were in moderato supply, nevertheless the dealers acted with great caution, and merely purchased sufficient for their immediate wants, and prices were with dithculty supported.
