LITTERA AMOY LVDLL THE CAPTURE OP DRUM 11TILACT or a LIMY Flat a sear? 011PICEIL DELHI, earl. 17. • • • I believe the intention is to get into the city this way, turning the enemy out with shot and shell, so as to expose our menu little as possible, for we have not many lives that we can afford to risk. I fear from the way that people speak in the Houses regarding affairs here that there is much misappre• ! hension as to our numbers and the . difficulties that there are in the way of taking Delh i. I went over the ground this morning where the assaulting columns advanced, and none, I think, but British troops could have carried the place, while the obstacles there were in the way of making the advanced batteries with our insufficient forte must have been almost insurmountable. our Engineers and Artillery are deserving of every praise, and so indeed are all branches of the army—and I wily wish that thou Rho have been dec7ing this little army and talking of the ease with which Delhi was to be taken could but pay it a priming visit. There has been no such tough work, it is my opinion, since we first came to India. As to the strength of our force, I had a tabular statement made to show how we stood at different dates on the Bth. You see. when we made the first advance we had less than two thoviaand European bayonets, sad of them about two hundred must have been put hors de combat in the action of Bedlee Ra Berm, when poor Chester was killed. To have tried to enter the city that day with the irregulars would have been mere madness ; though many blame General Barnard for not attempting it, and talk of Gillespie's gallantry in rushing into Venom. Had we gone beyond the position we took up on the ridge, we should pro- Way have loot half our fares and all our baggage. Them was such a howl and outcry, however, from every quarter about the absolute necessity of taking Delhi at once, and General Barnard was so urged on by one or two hot spirits in camp, who were always talking of the British spirit of the days of Clive —that he decided that en assault should come off on the 13th of June. Yon will see what our force was on that date ; and with it we had not only to take and keep the city but to guard our large camp. Fortunately some accident occurred to delay a portion of the force, and the attack was postponed. You will see by the return that troops dune in to join us from time to , time in driblets, but we had never till the 3rd of August anything like a decent force with which to carry on operations ; and the wonder to me is, our coming off so well as we have done—end this will be the universal impression when all is known about the siege. Wilson has shown himself a very good man for the occasion. r meterday ea offiam and myself had taken a party of 20 leis oat patrolling, sad we found 14 women with their &mate out from ear to ear by their own husband., and kid out in tbak shawl.. We caught a man theta who said he saw the killed for fear they should fall into oar bands, and showed as their husbands, who had done the beet thing they cord afterwards, and killed themaelves. We took about 280 cannon, with shot, fee., for about three year.. Without artillery they are no good; with it no despicable antagonists. There are no better gumless any where, as we discovered In this siege. By returns we lost 1,360 men and 64 officers during the meaulta only. Tolerably bloody work. Our lou in the aseault, out of 18 officers on duty, was 1 oN,er killed (poor Tautly), 10 wounded, many severely; one, I fear, mortally; 1 the day before the result, 1 after. Total 13, out of 18; a tolerable number, for there were 7 or 8 who were on another part of the work whom I don't count, and who are cm the strength to mart the unhappy remaining 6 new. lam glad to say there is not mach work for no jug now. At present, indeed, cat up se we have been, we could sot do It if we had much; sa, what with officers thoroughly done op roe with fever, and other amt out with moveable columns, our 20 for duty are traced to 4. Nicholson is out and out his best Brigadier; and this rather militates against the arguments they are ming in the Home as to the impropriety of employing military men in civil capacities, for Nicholson has for many years been employed in the Pttnjaub civil service. You may rely on the accuracy of the return ; and I dare my that the numbers entered on the sth as " St for duty " will be very much the same as we bad on the 14th, the day of the assault; for though Wyld's cores of Sikhs and two or three hundred Europeans Joined in the interval, the sick increased up to about 3,000, and there were a good many casualties in the intervening period. Sickness is now, I am happy to say, on the decrease, and the men are coming out of hospital. I wish the mail was a few days later in leaving, that we might tell you of our occupying the Palace, and this we expect to do in three or four days. There Is said to be only one regiment of mutineers there. Several Sepoys tried to paw oar guard this morning disguised as women.

On the 20th and 21st September the capture of Delhi was complete. It has been occupied by the rebels dace the 11th of lam May. ASSAM. The only coherent account of the state of affairs in this district that we have seen is contained in the follow ing letters from Calcutta, the first of which wee received by the previous ineth and the wood by that which arrived het week Cskatta, Sept. 24. . . The Assent troops have not actually risen, but they ham shown that they are about to do so very shortly. The Ist Benefice at Debroghur openly declare that they are about to set their fanner Relah on his throne again, and the find Battalion at Climrhatty hem been sending away their wives and children, and hays been discovered plotting with Rawer Slug. Moat of the Europeans, tea-planter, and others, have taken refuge in the neighbouring statics of Selimangor. The only loyal native troops in Amain are a few Ohporkas ender Major Hannay at Debroghnr. The church there has been provisioned and fortified, and guns protect the mere in which the church is. Speaking of the disaffeeitke among the Assereas the Friend of India says, " The King of Delhi is still looked upon as the titular sovereign in many parts oldie country. Nearly the oldest titles to land are documents raided by that sovereign or the local governor of Range =atty. The better clamors in Assam have hardly yet become remedied to our rule. Thu resumption of Likely° or Led held by the great aloes of the eats during the time Amain was seder native government, in Upper Assam, and the emenelpsiion of the slaves, together with the aliened= of land in Lower Assam, reduced all the hater dames at the time to great distress, and they have never recovered their former important». Both the rerucopelons and the emend potion of the slaves were necessary and beneficial to the people at large, who are more contented and richer by far than the majority of the peasantry of Ladle; but the doing justice to the mazy has raised us up some ene mies who may take occasion of the present disturbances to work us harm." If the Assam troops do rise the Ilylhet Regiment, the 73rd Bengal Native Infantry, and the four remaining companies of the 34th Naive Infantry, at Chitta gong, are almost mesh to do so also; said If the Armless generally dot, the immediate consequenoss may be very dia. aatrous. All those districts form one boundary line with Burmah, and when the cold weather sets in the Burmese, who are not very likely to remain quiet amid all these dis turbances, might, without any difficulty, march an army through Amato even to Calcutta Itself, It would require a good form of Europeans to Mass the torrent of rebellion to our eastward. The government have met off fifty English sailors, with a oomph of &pounders, Into the disturbed dia. trate 'Piny can be of no minim whatever except to protect the Europeans in their Sight from that part of the country. Jima In this little matter of mending off laity sailors the gu mmiest ofeciala must mismanage the affsir. These sailors, I meat mention, are not of the Royal Navy. They were engaged kr service as policemen, two guns were given to them, and they formed a very effective little artillery force for the protection of the town. They were under the imme diate anamand of Roberts• (assistant to the chief magistrate), whim old Calcutta men will recollect as Pip's friend, " Robsitsikieh." When they were sent off the other day, they were distinctly warned for Dacca, and for nowhere else, sad the consequanoe was, when they got to Dacca, and were Grand off to Amain, they most positively refined to go. Lineament Lewis, of the Indian navy, behaved with peat firmness; ordering out his own sailors and guns, and surrounding the others, he told the latter that ha must um form If they did not go. They then said they would go, de claring, however, that they would throw down their arms when they got there. Now there must have been soma grace mismanagement in this affair somewhere. But it is only a continuation of the old system of despising and M-tenting English soldiers and anion, and petting Mrs. Mangled "simple-minded and almost child-like' sepoy. Calcutta, Oct. B. Aasam, strange to say, Mall remains quiet. This is pro bably owing in a great measure to the sudden and well planned wizens of the Rajah of Debroghur, which has somewhat defeated the intentions of the disaffected belts , Boma The sailors, whose objection to proceed further than Dana I mentioned in my kat, have arrived in Assam, and Wu appoints°, has leaded to keep matters quiet there. The Redth el Debroghur is now on his way to Calcutta, if he is net already kin. While still in his palace, and concocting or Isonraibig the plots In his favour he was surprised and wised by a party of 20 picked Ohoorkaa. They had a long and weary march from the evening to the dean of neat day, across a jungiy sod marshy country-110W on elephants, now on foot, and sometimes in brats. They arrived at and surrounded the Rajah's palace just before daybreak, while he was fast asleep. They eared him, his wives, and a num ber of his followers, without tiring a shot, took two loaded guna and spiked them, and then cleared his palace and the neighbouring bazaar of everything that could be picked up in the shape of arms. Hi. bead Mookteser, an educated Bengelee, was also taken. When the whole palace and bazaar had been tho roughly decoded of arms and weapon. of every description, end of all documents or correspondence likely to throw any light upon the villains' plane, the little pasty left the place with their prisoners, followed for some distance by the in habitant., to the number of about 2,000, wbo had crowded round to watch the proceedings, but who did not attempt to interfere with them. They got back to their boats at ten pm., sad soon after reached Debeoghur, utterly worn out, having effected an Important service in a most creditable and daring manner. Along our eastern frontier, from Chittagong through Tippersh, Bylhet, MOIM, up to the Coasia Dille, and away age& to Darjeeling, all seems now quiet. Korniebee, Oct. 12.

The ex-mayor of Tamworth, Mr. E. B. Hamel, was entertained at • public dinner in that town on Tuesday evening; the MAYOR (Mr. 8. Hanson) presided. Lord Raynham and Sir Robert Peel, members for the borough, were wart. In replying to the Mee of " the Borough Members,' Mr Resent Peet, who was received with loud applause, mid k &robed upon him, as maim member, to make his acknowledgments. After a few prefatory observations on the Hal menneln wish the borough members were always neelml ea enek merlons as the present, he expressed his villiegnem he de enything for the equalisation of the poor dentange, and improvement of the town, and =l=e would out down 200/. towards • subscription the immedying of the inconvenience canard to waffle by lab Udder. Sir Robert than proceeded to say that there wee sr& which was more honoured in the breach than the sherennek es., the refraining from allusions to politics on ease Mae the present ; but when he saw his colleague, Ztd Swarm, there, and so many of his own constitu m% les Alt bound in justico to hire& sa well as to Ilens as maks some anions to subjects relating to tie este of public affairs. (Hear, bear.) His friend, Mr. Knight, had alluded to the scream of their army, Baying, sod justly saying, th at they had fought me never soldiers fought befens-•seisi brass such as were never resisted on former essidene—diet ask realm was greater now than ever—eed It wield be onweethy of him (Sir Robert) If he did net mile ea ellneka be Ike edam; and give them what were his Masemkew eased it an me of the representatives. (Hear.) Tim he wenbi aq m • member of parliament, he had Wowed Meg the this most serious and dis creditable tenteet—d ii, not in the way in which England had need her amelse—but in the way in which that contest bad been brought Meat by them who had the government of India in that eennai. (Hear, hear.) They were aware that on the 10th of May last Delhi Ina Mt seized by the mutinous &pop ; that on the 10th June our troops advanced to besiege that town. It was at the end of June they received the information, and what did Mr. Smith, of the Board of Control, any P He got up in the House of Commons—he (Sir Robert) heard him with his own sus—he got up and said, "We have received • report of a mutiny In India, but it is nothing , it is one of those perkdiml exordia* which occasionally excite the natives of India." Now this so called animate that had taken place had shaken our Indian empire from one end to the other, and would they believe ft, that in three months it cost the lives of more officers than perished during a similar pelod in the hardest months of the Crimean war. (Hear, hear.) No less than 270 offers had either ban massacred or had died, or had fallen in the field —270 in three months. That was certainly a greater proportionate loss than during the severest trials in the Crimea. This blow came upon no unexpectedly. Nobody In London had the least idea of what we had to contend against. But he would give the F.:aver ment credit for the energy anddetermination with which they proceeded to put a atop to the mutiny. Three days—and this was the great merit of Lord Palmerston, for aged as he was he posemeed • vigorous mind, a mind capable of appreciat ing events, and expressing itself rigorously in action—three days after the news of the mutiny reached England, on the let of July. troops were immediately ifeepatched to India. Before the end of the month 13,000 British bayonets had left, and before the lath of September, 40,000 left oar chores to re• wage the blood of our murdered countrymen. The sending of that 40,000 men was • stupendous undertaking, and the might depend upon it that never in the history of the world did any country send 40,000 men and maintain them 10,000 miles away from her shores. He declared that this mutiny had rather raised, not diminished, the prestige of the Eng lish arms to an enormous extent. (Hear hear.) Besides this great force, a number of regimenta which had served in the Crimea, and also regiments from Ceylon, the Ceps, sad China, proceeded to meet the government In India. But here was the blame to the government. They sent theme troops by way of the Cape, and =rely every sue knew who had common sense that the best route to take would have been aeries Egypt. They had the means, and yet they did not a&S it. On the 26th of September an order went out to the Duputy•Governor of Malta to send oat Iwo bat talions of the 37th Regiment across Egypt. Theme men, numbering 400, actually from the time they disembarked at Alexandria until the time they embarked at Suez, only moved 24 hours. From Saes to Calcutta they took 26 days—that was, from Malta to Calcutta they occu pied about five weep, or seven weeks altogether from Em land to Calcutta. When they compared this time with the time it took to go round the Caps—for Sir Charles Wood told them that to go round by the Cape occupied 130 dr. a by ending reeds and from 76 to 86 der, by eteamers—n; body could fail to see that It would have been far better to have adopted this comes than to mend them At the Cape. (Hear, hear.) It was there the government were to blame. They ought decidedly to have taken this shorter route. Now, in the Meditereaseth there was a fleet under the oonimand of a man to whom from the beginning he had always had an antipathy—hs meant Admiral Lord Lyons—. fleet which kept raving about doing nothing. They read in the papers bow Load Lyons went here and went there, visited the Cheek *maid sad breakfasted with him, and went about wing the beauty of the Koury in this place and that, when those ships might have keen carrying troops to India, Mend of showing off this, the rained man who ever wore the British uniform—a man who was showing himself ofl instead of doing genies to the British nation. (Applanae.) When parliament met be hoped it would =rider the great expellee of this fleet, which bad been doing nothing but exhibiting Lord Lyons. The expense was prodigious, and it was a monstrous abuse that they should have mren or eight men-of-war there, with com manders who had been doing nothing except gog to attend at bath which deputy-governors gave—(a lau gh)—ae they reed in them:wry He couldn't help looking at what had beau said by several friends and ammeters of the government from the beginning of this war. To see how, as soon as parliamet was over, • member began in • place where were excluded to allude to political events, and bow Cwant on in • kind of gradual routine until he reached the Prime Minister—(laughter)—how one man began to toady Lard Palmerston here, and to abuse him there—was very In telehag. The ball opened with Mr. Bernal Osborne, his colleague, and the secretary to the Admiralty a very witty vivacious man, as everybody knew. Well, Mr. Gabon* went to Dover, and addressed his constituents there. He made a moat singular speech—he not only praised Lord Aber deep, praised Palmerston, but pineal everybody. (A voice: "Ab, he's a clever fellow.") Yes, continued Sir Bonn, be is • clever fellow, a monstrous clever fellow. (Laughter.) Well, he showed his elevernms, but made a most singular mistake notwithstanding. It was at a moment when everybody was alluding to the outrage in India—at this moment Mr. Osborne said to hie constituents, talking of violated women, and massacred children, " I am not respon sible foe this, I am not of your high caste Brahmins." (Laughter.) This was • poor compliment to the government of which Mr. Osborne we, • member. Another gentlemen addreaed his constituents et sem:trey meeting. lie is • very warm supporter of the government, and he said he wan not irked of Lard Palmerston's once, but be was then. Ha mid, " Lord Palominos, gentlemen, Is ono of the greatest ma le England ; he gets op at six every morning and writes till twelve—(al this was in the papers)-1 know it, be said ; oh, I know It. He gees out shooting—mom of course for exercise than amusement.

Hie whole speech was • defenos of Lord Canning. Now just observe, nobody had attacked Lord Canning. but somebody bad referred to him in the public preee—but Lord Gronvillo said he was the greatest man who ever lived, a man of greet sagest,. He (Sir Robert) was informed that ha, ing made these observation,, having begun well, they tell as fiat as ditch water on the assembly.. (Hear, hoer.) Lord Canning had done nothing yet. He might be • great ruin; he has been postmaster general -(a laugh)—but he had not shown that ability for civil government that he might have shown. (Hear, hear.) Thu came Lord Pal merston, who was in cepital humour, and made a very agreeable speech. After alluding to the war in India, he said that Lord Canning had been abused, but he was a great man; (it was one of Palmerston's charecteristice to stand by those he appointed), end they would stand by him. Lied Palmerston was right perhaps to say so, but the time bad not come when they were to praise Lord Canning. Why had not Havelock—(applause)--Neill and Nicholson, been praised? Look what the British troops done. Had Lord Canning anything to do with the capture of Cawapore, the storming of Delhi, or the relief of Lucknow ? (Hear.) No, be had nothing to do with these exploits. Lard Palmerton then want on to allude to public affair,, and he made use of a very curious obeermtion—perhaps it was in joke. for it use, a difficult matter to distinguish when he was jolting end when in unmet. He nab, turning roared to the assembly, among which there happened to be one or two ministers— (the corps dtplomoteque were a(,eent)—but first (said Sir Robert), he must tell them that Lord Palmerston was an important man, and it was remarkable that no foreign minister of any consequence attended at the dinner. Though the Austrian and the Russian Ministers were in London, there were only present at the banquet the sable representative of the Republi of Hayti and the Siamese twins—(laughter)— and Pelmeraton, turning round to them said—" Don't cimaider, gentlemen, that the 40,000 men we have sent to India is a proof that England is week. Let anybody," said he (slaking bin fingers at the corps diplornotiltit) "let anybody corns and attack England, and he will see that he will haves dangerous game to play, and that she is the same an before." Now, this was a most injudicious observation of Lord Palmerston's, for our prestige rested, not upon the 1:121C we may send out, but upon the spirit and the patrietiam of the people. (Cheer,.) Having said so much, it was nacemary for - him (Sir Robert) to =Wider for a few moments the horrible consequences of the mutiny. It was difficult to think what the oonsequenoes would be. There were 80,000 men who had up to the present time mutinied against the British arms. Theme men were in arms against them. It we. no war of independence—there was no social object in view on the part of the mutineers, for no principles of society could be leased upon the doings of such ruffians. (Hear, hear.) It was one of the most extraordinary revolts which had ever occured. Attempt. had been made to throw the blame on the Governor-General ; and one man actually had the audacity to affirm that the disturbance@ were owing to the government of the Marquis of Dalhousie, and to propose Hest his pension of 6,0004. a year should be revoked. Meer, bear.) as anything more toonetroea than for a man to get up and say this of • man who bad penned his life and broken his health by so long a resi dence in India as Lord Dalhousie—(applause)--• man whom, he made no hesitation in vying, _was as great a governor general as ever governed our Indian territory. His name was to be held in as high estimation as that of Clive and Bentinck —and one gill greater than either—as Hastings. (Renewed applause.) Attempts had been made in England to abuse Lord Dalhousie, • man who showed that be car posseeeed of to goat do KW et is main dr er—(hear bear) — rho touched softly with the former, and pressed the latter according to the directions be received at home, and it re mained for Lord Canning, when peace was restored, to replace the chief government in its former position. (Hear. He hell that the outbreaks in India were to be to the mismanagement of the East India Cowpony. It we. , clear that sweeping reforms would have to be thhoduced. ' That was one of the questions they must deal with—a question of the deepest importance. It was not neces sary to do away with the East India Company, but they must establish a Legislative Council at Calcutta, and give it local power—not letting it write bac k cb. : s t=land continually for instructions. Look at the on of the Sem army, 400,000 men; and Sir Napier—that great man—said there were as many as 400,000 men in the pay of native princes. They were told that the expense of intro ducing foreign legions into India was very large—that one European soldier cost as much as three Soper& and that ft took 461. to send every individual soldier to India; but when they saw, as at Benarea, 200 British soldiers annalists three regiments of Sepoys, the had a proof that one man wee equal to fifty &pop. What wee the expense of 400,000 men, when those men would be equal to the whole at the present Sepoy army as at prevent constituted? (Hear, hear.) There was another point of importance on which he wished to remark, namely, the public works which the East India Company had neglected. The great means of instilling power into another country was by encouraging and favouring the social program of the people, and government would do well to &wider this. What had the Bast India Company done in this matter? We had railways ramifying through this country, sod in Franca, and on the continent ; but in India, in the Presidency of Wants& they actually bad only 160 miles of railway esta blished, only 66 in Mama, and 88 in Bombay. The East India Company had neglected to aid and promote by public works the prosperity and well being of that country. (Hear, bear.) Look how they had administered their finances. The receipts of India through 1855 to 1826 were 28,000,0001., and the expense of collecting that sum eat the Company about 6,000,0001., which left • balance of 22,000,0001. With this enormous revenue the deficit from 1856 te 1856 amounted to not lees than 9000001. ; and last year the deficit was 2,000,000!. Now, how could the company continue to rem the empire when, with • revenue of 30,000,0004., they were Incapable of ray i ng on?..he boatmen of that country. No leis than 1,600,0001. was expended by them in paying different princes. An enormous Wary was paid to Rena Sahib's putties father ' and 80,0004. to the King of Delhi. (Hear ' beer.) AU this was paid to men who undermined our power in Indies A sweeping reform , was indeed necessary, and next session Lard Pahnerstan's government must have care how they grappled with the There other tithe pis req uiring abject.were Clan 01111 on ta consideration. The financial question which was agitating the public mind was one of these. There was a panic in the country, end this question was the most serious one with which Lord Palmerston would have to deal. The present Bank Act was peered to 1844, and twice since that period had it been temporarily laid aside. In 1847 Rush relaxed it, but the Bank of England did not avail itself of it. The other day, however, so enormous was the premium hers and in Scotland, that Lord Palmerston and the Chancellor of the Exchequer gave the Bank power to relax its charter, and he was told yesterday by • member of her Msjesty's government that parliament was obliged to meet early In Dumber—that so great was the pressure that the Bank had been obliged to exceed its usual remiesions by 200,0001. of mar. This was a_question which would agitate the public mind next session. Then there was the Reform Bill, which would be shelved for another year. The Rows told them that there was only one man who wanted reform in England, end that was Lord John Russell; but there were many who wanted reform. He didn't think the question would come on this motion. He thought that Lord Pelmennos, with his agreeable way of dealing with affsirs, would shelve it for another year. (Hear, hear.) He didn't think the country would agree to this. (Applause.) Lord Pelotereton, he was hue, would have great difficulties to contend against; but he was • man who had always proved himself to be equal to the emergency. Still they moat bear in mind that greater minister i than he bad fallen before trifles. In 1846, for instance, the minietry that had inaugurated a magnificent treasure of 1 public relief fell before • petty exasure—the Irish Arms Bill. (Hear, hear.) It might be that Lord Palmerston k would meet parliament strong Its the confidence of the mantel in his military measures. He might be able to 0. deeds a —tli c al Have marel l i c e ' d k le a ltil h4 es in eight da y s, gained four victories. He thought some distinguishing • mark, like the motto, " Prima in Indus," worn on the 7 breasts of the gallant heroes who fought with Clive at k. Mary, should 'be conferred on that 78th for the way they ke had upheld the honour of the nation. (Cheers.) Lord 17 Palmerston would be able indeed to point to those brave at deed; end they would be the means of giving him the cons a Samos of the country. But there were sycophantic F Nadi who thought that the voice of the country would A ant he raised. It might, however, be necessary for Lord lie Palmerston to rally aroud hire his independent supporters, w, to embody those who would give a vienrons expression to his , a policy ; and he for one would be ready and willing to stand mite true to the empathise he had long shown him, although he sat had suffered the misfortune to undergo a temporary num ef lion from the government of the man whom he had esteemed A t . in politico—a man who, with all his faults, had been equal to g" every @Amnon in which he was placed; a man who, though ant placed on the highest pinnacle in the country to which a Ma subject could aspire, had not forgotten the great duties he eery owed to the public se a gateman and patriot, who, while he as a had sucomeklly carried on the wars of - the country in foreign aid, lands, knew well how to uphold and vindicate thelibertiee and tln rights of his fellow-countrymen in every part of the world.

WOLVERHAMPTON, WCDNEODAT EIMEING. This has been a more quiet day at Wolverhamp ton ;to a great extent the excitement had subsided. Early in the rooming it was known that three of the directors of the bank (Messrs. Briscoe, Tarred, and Elwell) bad gone to London, taking with them the private secunties of their Mates, for the purpose of seeking 'mistimes from the Beak of England. Up to • late hone in the afternoon no reply had been received. It is to be hoped, however, that it will be favourable, and that the beak may be re-opened. A mea sure of that kind would be the means of averting a large amount of mischief. for certainly Ike present is the most severe blow this district has ever remised. The amount et assistance sought from the Bank of England is said to be 100,0001. In the course of to-day the circumstances in connexion . ith the stoppage of the bank were very much discumed, and se generally condemned. Some of the directors are un derstood to have dissented from this proceeding, hut the majority, though well-IsiMationed, were too timid for so heavy an emergency. The stoppage is the more to be de ordnot only because of the immediate mischief which is Irreparable, but because of the bed impression it is calculated to mate in reference to the credit of the district. ' Various means have bean suggested by which the diffliulty may be mat, but up to five o'clock nothing had been decided u It hubs= suggested that a meeting of the depositors should be called. and if possible some pledge should ho obtained from them to tat their depoalts reed for the present. If anything of this kind can be done, it would greatly help to free the matter from endangerment. For other purposes, it Is not improbable that assistanoe might be obtained by the obi of parties who, on pub& grounds, are largely Interested in the maintenalmerof lie credit of the district. This mw em s atHotmasd meeting of the Chamber 0 Commercewead. A good deal of discussion took place as to the beet mime to be pursued. The conduct of the direc tors of the bank in =spending business with so much pie eipitation was very much and not favourably commented upon ; but any specific resolution on the subject was deferred. The propriety of an application to the Bank of England for the establishment of a branch in Wolverhampton was spoken of, but no definite action was taken on this subject, and the chamber adjourned until Friday. The liabi li ties of the bank in deposits lad credit balances has been estimated at 450,0001. ; and on bills under discount at from 260,0001. to 300,0001. The assets are said to be larger than these two amounts, but their yield must vveerry much depend on the cireumetances under which the securities ere realised, and under which en gagements are met. Unless the bank reopens, • great number of the small tradesmen who have credit balanced will suffer very greatly. Wednesday is market day at Wolverhampton, and • mat number of country people were in the town to-day, but there has been no further tun upon the other banke, and the shopkeepers continue to take the notes of the Wolverhampton and Staffordshire Company. The moat perfect quiet prevails both in Wolverhampton and throughout the district, and although the labour market must suffer considerably, the population of this dis trict is generally so orderly and well disposed, and on the part of employers so strong • disposition to meat the difficulty in that respect with as truck liberality as circumstance., will permit, that it In hoped • disposition to preserve order will actuate all ardm. The Bight Hon. C. P. Villiers, M.E. for the borough, strived in town this morning. THE UNEMPLOYED OPERATIVES OF NOTTINGH.4M. NOTTINGHAM, WZDNISDLY. The distressed unemployed held a large meeting la the Market-place, yesterday afternoon. The same body held a meeting the previous evening, and a deputation from the unemployed waited upon Mr. lieymaan (the mayor), to oak his advice u to what could be done to alleviate their distress at the present crisis. The mayor suggested that ell the names of the unemployed, and the number of thee families, should be obtained before any decisive step could be taken. The meeting on Tneeday afternoon, therefore, was to devise the best method of collecting the names of the unem ployed and those dependent upon them. A resolution to be submitted to the mayor, suggesting that the town should be divided into wards, and persons properly appointed be soli cited to receive the names of those out of employ. was adopted. The meeting was then adjourned until Friday. At the close of the proceedings some pence were thrown out of one of the windows to the Market R ice to the crowd, which caused a considerable scuffle. 11.'ithin half an hour afterwards, when the well-intentioned part of the c-owd had diapered, a number of youths went in a body to the shop of Mr. Noble, small-ware dealer, and smashed his shop front. In ' towards Chapel-bar • gene was hurled at Mr. fithep p'a window, and it few yards beyond the mob broke in the shop-window of Mr. Travail, pawnbroker, where they sue o possessing themselves of 15 watches, and other valuables. Mr. Travail defended his property, and was severely bruised. Several of the shopkeepers mound cams In to his assistance, and succeeded in driving off the mob, and thus prevented farther plunder. The shop of a baker named Day, of Radford, in the neighbourhood of Nottingham, was afterwards entered, and all the bread taken away. Other depredations were also committed in this villap. About 9 o'clock, a mob of youths went to the Meadow Platte. a low district of the town, and commenced an sleek upon the bakers' and grocers' shops. In some places bread was given them, at others cheese. In Beck-street they broke the windows of Mr. Spencer, baker ; Mr. Goddart, of Sandy lane, had also his windows broken. The Huntsman pablio- AnSt. Ann's-street ; Mr. Porter, groom, Beck-lane ; oodacre, baker, Glasshouse-lane; North, baker, Mea dow Platte, end other places were assaulted by the mob. The police succeeded in apprehending three youths, who were taken before the magistrates this (Wednesday) morning. and summarily dealt with. The magistrates have given notice to special constables to be on duty this (Wednesday) afternoon, at 4 o'clock. It is bpt fair to those operelives who attended the meeting on Tueday afternoon to say that the breakers of the public peace were in no wise connected with there. On Tuesday morning there were a great number of appli cations at the union for relief, which was deferred until an mower could be received from the Poor-law Board to a re quest from the guerdians that that clause in the act ehould be rescinded which provides that families applyiog fur relict should be taken into the house. TAE BANK CRISIS.—MEETING IN GLASGOW.—On Tuesday a most influential meeting wan held at Glasgow, to consider the prasent financial costa. The Duke of Hamilton took the chair ; and betides a great number of merchstitaand landed proprietors, the Duke of Montrose, Lord Belhavlm, the Provost of Glasgow, Sir E. Colebrooke, Sir John Max well, Mr. Blackburn, M.P., and Sir A. Alison, were prevent. Itaeolutions were proposed and carried by acclamation. that the meeting had full confidence in the Scottish system of banking ; thit it pledged itself to Leapt payment of rents and claims in the notes of the two banks which had sue minded payment—the Western and City Hanka ; and that • committee he appointed to carry out the objects of the meeting. TAE METROPOLITAN GAS COMPANIES. —A meet- Mg was held yesterday in the Court House, Marylebote, to consider therocent division of the metropolis into districts by the gas companies; Dr. Bachhoffner took the chair. De putations were present from the merles of Marylehone, St. Pancras, Islington, Paddington, St. James's, Weed minster, and other parishes. Mr. Freeth (Marylebone) stated that in his parish the Equitable had been lighting the public lights at 3/. per light, but in consequence of the new arrange ment they had to fall hack upon the Chartered Company, which at once raised the price to 41.75. 6d. pee light, If the companies would not meet them fairly they would either have to go to parliament or to erect gas works of their own. Mr. ninth moved the first remlution, to the effect, "That this meeting views with omudderable apprehension the recent division of the metropolis into districts by the various gas companies, and .is of opinion that the various metropolitan vestries and district boar* should 00-operate together to prevent the operation of the gee companies from working Injuriously to the gas mummers of the metropolis." Mr. Otesin (St. hones's) seconded the resolution. It wee after wards resolved to adjourn the meeting to communicate with all the veatries and district boards of the metropolitan Just as the meeting was concluding an important M ih e s e m :as received from the Town Clerk of Manometer, Mating that the profits of gam lighting to the corporation amounted to between 30,0031. sod 40,0001. per annum, and was applied to local improvement. HARE HUNTING ON BELLE ISLE, WINDERMERE. —Of all fan and frolic, pleasures and pastimes, eports and sprees, rust, play and recreation, commend us to a hue hunt on Belle Isle. Mr. Smith, the present occupier, being about to leave, and having lately imputed to the Wand a quantity of harm, it was intimated that for the amusement of all who chose the hunting would take place lest Thurs day. And as in bunting and all active genes, the dwellers of the happy lake district are the neat accomplished in the world, it cannot be wondered at that a large enn course of the inhabitants congregated on the occasion. The extent of the island is thirty Reim and well wooded. and the uninitiated may imagine • Idozen hares, a NOM ol doge and hundreds of hunters, barking, capering, scamper ing, yelling, and hallooing, till wood and welkin, heath and hiß moor and mountain, all resound in thundering edam. A atoms of Handel or Beethoven is something, no ) is a storm at sea, or a Bret-elms volcano in eruption, bat not to be corn wed with on unsophisticated matter-of-fact bore bunt on Belle Isle. This may seem exaggeration to some, but to those who joined in tho sport our unvarnished talc will be at noes apparent. Since the day when Sir Robert Philipson was be sieged and bombarded en the island (adds our somewhat excited correspondent), such • hubbub boa not sounded over Windermere, or reechoed through the vales of Troutbee.k.— Tf'estmorcland Gast*.
