It did appear that the great obstacle to a good supply of cotton from our colonies arose from the fast that their MOUTON were not wisely or well developed by the imperial g Tenement at home, or the keel is there. When the time arrived that the 8010 could with unshackled freedom exercise their in d sad skill, he believed we should obtain a sage sad abaadaatsu of raw cotton, as well as other important produces.

But unites we Wall be supplied with oar raw 'asterisk at "heap rates and in abundant quantities, he leered that the prosperity which seemed to be dawning open us would be very much overshadowed. We had yet to "hula some concession from government in the way of re lazing a few of the remaining restrictions that impressed the industry of tie country, though only in • slight degree. The examples that were Method on the statute-book, of mere needed protection, were laid hold of by some foliage governments, moth to oar national injury.

A PRECEDENT FOR THE COMMONS INTERFERING WITH AN OBNOXIOUS MENBBY —" The Charitable Come ration," a gigantic swindle, erected in 1707, professed to lend money, at legal interest, to the poor, upon small pledges, and to persons of better rank upon security of goods impawned. Their capital, at first limited to 30,0001., was, by licences from the crown, increased to 600,0001. though their charter was never confirmed by act of parlia ment. In 1731 George Robinson, Esq., M.P. for Marlow, the (lathier, and John Thompson, warehowekeeper of the aorporation, disappeared in one day. The alarmed pro prietors held sevenl courts, and appointed a committee to inspect their affairs, who reported that, fora capital of above 500,0001. no equivalent was found, inasmuch u their effects did not amount to the value of 30,0001. the remainder having been embuzl.d. The proprietors, in e petition to the Howe of Commons, represented that by a notorious broach of trust the corporation had been de trended of the greatest part of their capital, and that many of the petitioners Were reduced to the utmost misery and distress. They therefore, prayed parliament to inquire into the state of the corporation and the conduct of the managers, and extend ',lief to the petitioners. On this petition a secret commistee was appointed, who soon dis covered • moat iniquitous scene of fraud perpetrated by Robinson and 1 hompson, in concert with some of the direc - on, embezzlina the capital and cheating the pro prietors. Many persona of rank and quality were concerned in this infamous conspiracy. Sir Robert Sutton and Sir Archibald Grant were unshed the House of Commons, as having had a considerable share in these fraudulent trans actions, and a bill was brought in to restrain A- ns and other delinquents from leaving the kingdom or alienating their effects. In 1733 parliament granted a lottery for the relief of the Charitable Corp ration ;" from which a dividend of 9s. 9d. per pound well realised and paid to the proprietors. —Horse's Every day Book.

Xectrax systrino. The operations in the Stock Exchange to-day were not of toy magnitude, and the slight fluctuations which occurred in the English funds are rather to be ascribed to the preparations of the dealers for next Thursday's settlement than to any other circum ►tanee. Wools were first called as they left off on Saturday, NZ to both for money and account, when the " selling." on the part of the " Bull*" caused a temporary decline to 951 ; from this, however, they soon recovered, and touched 95, and then returned to the first peke, at which they continued for the remainder of the day and so closed.

The fifteenth drawing of the numbers for redemp- 10 tion of the Austrian Wan of 1834 took place at Vienna on the Ist inst. The Bank of Rostock had commenced business in rz conformity with the statute ; 2,500 shares, represent- n log a paid-up capital of 125,000 dollars, having been u taken by the public. A meeting of the shareholders m wu to be held on the 4th March, to consider the ex- Li pediency of granting powers to the board to raise the 4 capital of the Bank to oat million dollars, according to ti circumstances. to According to the last amounts from the Cape of to Clood.Hope, the inhabitants of the eastern district, in the neighbourhood of Algos Bay, were congratulat is i - ing themselves on the discovery of an extensive seam 1111 of cost in that direction. At a meeting of the direr- ic e l tors of the Eastern Province Mining Association, so which had just been held, a resolution wu passed to 11. devote a sum to the opening of the coal seam in too Coega-ridges to such an extent u may be sufficient to ems enable competent judges to report more particularly ;') concerning the quantity and quality of the coal 11 in that region, which, in that neighbourhood, r s ' is stated to cross over a great extent of country. Ist It has been seen at different points from to, Zwartkops heights to Sunday's river, a distance of 15 ; j l.' miles, and everywhere within 10 miles of a shipping too beach along Algoa Bay. The value of this discovery tr, is materially heightened by the fact, that in the is opposite direction from Zwartkops to the extensive Rats towards Port Elisabeth and the Maitland Mines, to the country abounds in iron ore. A coal district and oe iron region lying in such juxtaposition afford the E prospect of boundless wealth to the colony, and may Ist become the foundation of the future prosperity of the 6 ,t eastern province of the Cape. 20 The accounts from the Maitland mines appear to be E of the most encouraging character. The party of miners which bad lately arrived from Cornwall, and iii which bad not been six weeks in the colony, had i t. already struck the lead-lode, as the phrase is, which s the captain pronounced to be a lode of great richness so es well as breadth. The lead obtained is almost pure, bp and the returns are already sufficient to cover the i 1 so expenses of working the whole mines. Bt. SECIWICIIO3 ASO 9TOCH9 anaosp.

Yesterday the half-yearly muting of this company was held at the London Tavern, for the purpose of receiving a repeat of th e directors, and for other pupae', Major 821111870111 k, M.P., took the chair, when The SECRETARY read the report, which stated that— " The directors had, since the last half-yearly 'meeting, and in accordance with the unanimous desire of that meeting, greatly reduced the liabilities of the company on satisfactory terms. The directors continue of opinion that it is inex pedient, ender existing circumstances, to proceed with works on tha line. Sizes the last halGyeariy meeting the sum of 3,1231. 16e. 4d. has been received on account of arrears of call. The directors regret that they have been driven to adopt legal proceedings against some of the defaulters, and, in justice to the other proprietors, it is their intention to follow out this costae except in cases only wheys there are strong grounds for believing that snob steps would be entirely Nukes. The directors have moistly sold Gut the 3j per cent. sleek belonging to the company at a profit of 2411. 4a. &L The proceeds, via., 13,6401. 10s. 2d. have been lent ea t securities at call. The director's recommended tle confirmation by the meeting of the for feiture of 70 auto en whisk the all was in sneer, and of which die notice had been given. The beluga sheet 1a Jageet showed a lbr i gzi f 30,22a 1 /2e. 74. The CHAIII=n moving the &dories trf the mirk raid that since the last meeting the object of the directors had been to do everything they could with • view to economy, so as to put their affairs on a satisfactory basis. In regard to the Teeboy branch they had made arrangements with the landowners, so as to slimily* the shareholders; and as to the With branch, the directors had been negotiating with parties to take it off their hands, during which they had found the advantages of their powers for taking extra land. As to going on with the line, it was always bee indi vidual opinion, that under the circumstances it would be madness so to d 0 for it would only be laying their money out unprofitably. (Hear, hear.) It would he seen that the directors had done all in their power to co'l..ct the arrears of calls, and that since the last meeting upwards of 3,0001. had been received, which showed no want of activity on their part. (Hear, hear.) He hoped parties still in anew would be no longer so, for the law mast take its course in respect to defaulters. The directors had got together a quorum of their body, at some expense and trouble, for the purpose of selling out their stock .for a higher in vestment. The last time their stock was sold at a considerable loss, and being willing that it should not occur again, the directors waited till the funds bad realised the,r highest amount, the result of which had been a email profit. The sum mentioned in the balance•sheet as being in the Commercial Bank, was there on the 26th inst but was now in Exchequer bills, which were in his custody. In respect to the removal of the offices, he was happy to say that they bad effected a raving of 1601., and in other things the directors had exercised the greatest economy possible. (Hear, hear.) Mr. BATLEY seconded the motion. A SHAREHOLDER asked how it happened that the law expenses were 2,6481. ds. Bd. ; this was no: much in hoar of economy. The CHAIRMAN replied that tot one shilling of that sum had been incurred during these two half year?, but were sums due two years ago, which bad only now been settled. Mr. SAMS asked if the amount invested in debentures was perfectly sale. The CHAIRMAN said it was perfectly safe, and such was the opinion of counsel. It could be got back when required. Mr.SPACHMAN hoped it was so, for he was connected with a company where the interest wes said to be illegal, and so such could not be enforced. A SHAREHOLDER said that was perhaps a case of mortgage, which was different from debentures. The CHAIRMAN observed that the directors had taken the opinion of Mr. Lloyd, who said tkat they could seize on the working stock of the company in case of default. (Hear.) Mr. SPACEMAN said that in his case they were about to appoint a receiver, but then they could only take what the line produced, which he understood would have to be dill. tributed over the whole body of adventurers, in which case the claims of his friends might be put off for fifty years. (Hear and laughter.) He hoped their funds were not izvested on such an unsafe security. (Hear, hear.) The CHAIRMAN said one advantage was that they had always got their interest regularly. Mr. SPACEMAN observed that the parties he had 'Ducted to had tailed in principal and interest. The report was then agreed to unanimously. On the motion that Messrs. Rumford, Hopkins, Salkeld, and Underwood be re-ele.ted directory, A SHAREHOLDER begged to propose the name of Mr. Baker, of Think, in place of Mr. Underwood. After some discussion this was negeivd, and Mr. Under wood was re-elected with the otu r directors. Seventy shares were then forfeited; and a vote of thanks having been passed to the chairman end directors, the meeting adjourned.

REVIEW OF THE FOREIGN COI!N TRADE DURING THE PAST WEEK, (From the Maris-lane Erprest.) Letters from Danzig, of the Ist instant, inform us that very little business had been done auxin the week, holders having asked prices which bluets had refused to pay. The finer kinds of wheat bad been held with greater &nines than secondary sorts, and good mixed, weighing data 61 lbs., had been offered at prices varying fromMi to per free on board in spring. Scarcely any old had appeared, land fine high-mixed parcels of new bad been held at equal to 395. to dle. per , free on board. Our Konigsberg 'dykes are also of the Ist February. During the week a very heavy fall of snow had taken place in that neighbourhood, which had almost blocked up the roads, and rendered them impassable for loaded sledges, hence but small supplies' of corn had come forward, and holders of that on the spot had consequently asked full terms, which needy buyers had been compelled to pay. The best high mixed wheat was then quoted 365. Gd.; mixed, 335. 6d. to 351. Gd.; and red, 325. per qr., tree on board in spring. In quotations of other articles, net the slightest change bad occurred. The reports from the lower Baltic ports are certainly of a more subdued tone than of late, the want of English orders, and the progressive fall in prices, having caused spe culators to pause. Stettin 'deices of the 3rd instant inform no that the dis position to buy had in a great measure subsided, and that, though sellers hail resiste I any decline of impatience, the tendency of prices bad he en downwards. At Rostock, on the 2n.1 of Fi bruary, the value of wheat was nominally the same as on that day sennlght, but a con siderable falling off had taken place in the interval in the de mand. Good b2lbs. to 63Ibs. wheat was quoted 3-is to 365. par qr. free on board in spring, but no inchnstian had bee n shown to buy at the prices named. The value of the article was about the same at most of the other ports from which we are in the habit of receiving the growth of ?Sethi( nhurg and Pomerania, but there was less confidence in the trade generally, which circumstance we are inclined to regard as the precursor of a decline. We have letters Isom Hamburg rice Ostend of the 4th. Since the Ist instant a rapid thaw had been ex perienced, and it was the prevailing opinion that the ice in the Elbe would soon be broken up. The con'inued dull accounts from hence had not been without influence, ' and holders of wheat had become nave anxious to realise. So few transactions for shipment had, however, taken place, as to render it difficult to determine the exact prices at which purchases might have bees nude, in which p of affairs quotations had ressisiaell eosainally unaltered. Free-on-board offers from the Baltic had rather increased, but at too high limits to lead to lewdness. AS Antwerp, on the sth of February, the wheat trade was t very dull the supplies having proved more than equal to l the load demand, and no purchasers for export haviiig come forward, tine &fibs. red Louvain wheat was thin freely offered at 37.., and 61 to 62:b.. Antwerp at 35e. 6.1. per qr. free on board. The Seheidt was open, and there we amm o quently no impediment to immediate shipments. ! In the French markets very little change appears to have weaved la priers; but notwithstanding the discouraging ; date of the trade here, shipments of dour were still being made to England. llf 1 2 146 41 l4 15 122 671 ~: t Pa. /111 I Pa 1 - pm. ib 14 Ile ex int 111 „ S 1 71 el 19 I*
