1104 surprise if it be found that Sir Cornewall Lewis has ex• pressed to the Bank Directors a desire that an additional issue on securities to the extent of about 500,0001. should be made by the Issue Department. It may be assumed that the suggestion would proceed from the Government, because, in the tirat place, they would be pecuniarily the greatest gainers by the operation, being entitled to the yearly profit of the additional issue ; and in the next, the Bank, who never found it expedient to apply for such an extension when they were far more closely pressed, are not likely to invite it now that they are in an easier posi• tion than for several weeks past, and have the prospect of an increased reserve, which has invariably occurred in the close of the last quarter of the year, from the action of the incoming revenue. Hence the application on their part will have been merely ministerial. BRITISH Ft OFFIC B per Cent.
