That was the course now taken • Si. creditors there represented said, "W• have had eaciniked bankruptcy ; we are com petent to manage our own affairs, and to w ind up this es tate ; and we will pass • resolution to that effect." No doubt it was the intention the new act, from the cots meneement to the sod, to give to creditors every power, whether they used it rightfully or wrongfully, judiciously or unadvisedly. The crethtors now declined to go on uuder the 185th section, but asserted their power to take proceedings under the 110th ; and there mold be no ground for the allegation of surprise. The object of the creditors in taking these proceedings was to ohms • simple, easy, and certain mode of arituicsistering this estate, there being no question pending, and no grounds for lingatem which would require the intervention of the Court of Itankruptc). Toe Bank of Deposit and the creditors of tier , Rink of Deposit had no right of proof under this bankruptcy, or of niterfereoce with the columns of Mr. Peter Merriam as an individual. No state of circumstances could arise in which any depositor in that aasocaUo• could have any right of proof, or any claim against this estate, until all the creditors of Mr. P. Morrison, as a private individual, were paid is fell, and the exposer of administration also were discharged. He bad the strongest hope that the private creditors would receive a good dividend, but there was no probability that there would be ant surplus for the creditors of the Bank of Deposit, or for Mr. Morrison himself. A great deal bad been mid about the resolution nuking an allowance to the bank. to edge rapt ; but nothing had been taken out of the estate, or i.e a pry from the creditors of the Bank of Deposit for that purpose. le an Os. b , Mr. Liaktater said that the creditors mast have been 5 . 6 13 010110 taken by surprise by these proceedings, which had been 21 ,. initiated under am *action, and now transfeircd to another. a l` •" ode{ " elee setae trader the former section it would have been necessary fur -- the bankrupt to come here and give some account. By the course sow proposed, the bankruptcy not being put ea end to, be might come forward whenever it was quite convenient to himself to do so, or not at all. This was a very praiseworthy effort to shield Mr. Morrison from the Weide of bankruptcy ; but he be. bayed that it would prove futile. All the creditors now voting were represented by Mr. Lewis; but their pro ceedinp would turn out utterly abortive. The opposing creditors would look to those having the conduct of the pro (unbar to take the necomary steps for compelling the appear mice of Mr. Morrison at the examination meeting. At that moment they did not know bow 111L101 he owed, and what be had to pay it with. The assignees were frilled' of Mr. Morrison, and the independent creditors were left in utter darkness. It was proposed to adjourn the meeting for 14 days, and no doubt that would be done. He should be glad to kuow when the last examination was fixed for. • SHARE L1578,--(THIS DAY.) it Two s'Osool.

Seytou and Wainwright, dated New York, the 3rd inst. - As intimated is our last, the Treat affair ban been settled in a magnanimous and libeml way by oar government, and Mr. Seward, Secretary of State, while fully maintaining the national honour, has manifested to the whole world the dis position of this country, in whatever immediate position of difficulty it may be pieced, to act justly and uprightly to all asthma. The people of the United States have endorsed the action of the government in a meaner to prove the utter falsity of the orgaus of secession at home ar in Europe. The course pursued in this case has produced its natural effect on the stock market. Another muse has been the suspension of specie payments by the banks, and the anticipated inflation incident to this line of policy, which itargued must also, per tome. be adopted by the government. The bank financiers are by no means agreed as to the manner of conducting their Nisineas under existing circumstances—some continue to pay specie to their customers ; some do not. Meanwhile gold has advanced to • premium of 14 per mut. The state of affairs above alluded to, together with the usual demand at this period of the year to remit interest and dividends to foreign proprietors of American amenities, has caused an advance to 13 per cont. premium for eterhog, and 5.00 for francs, for tankers bills. Commercial bills, 109, 110, to 111, the range of quotations being very wide. We hear of no gold being put up for shipment. FRIDAY EVI2tING.
