UIE PRESE STATE OF THE MONET MARKET. PROM THE TIMES. The ainonnt for which Messrs. Pole, Thornton, and C o . have failed has been variously stated, and thete probably exists no data at present on which any just ei:imate can be I - mined; but we have reason to believe , hit .heir deficiency does not exceed 200,0001. Their fustorners in general are not supposed to have had very 1 2 ,,,e hal ,nces in their hands. I t o c t ;ht to be observed, since the declaration can no longer be injurious, that this is the house adverted to en a former occasion, as having received assistance from :he B i hk, on laying before the Directors such a state trent of their affairs as was admitted at the time to be ssthfactory. The amount advanced by the Bank is Nid to have been nearly 300,0001. and that sum, it was wnuld be sufficient to secure the house against al future danger. In a week from that time, fm e/el, the firm has suspended its payments. It is but !r) say, that every effort was made by the house t i-,stion, that their unfortunate situation would ad fr,i!, to rn.ike the blow as light as possible. I : wa, recommended to persons holding draughts of t h e ise on Saturday, in all cases wherein it could be d o ne with propriety, to prescpt them for payment, in stead of pa,sing them througl4 their own bankers. At the sting-house, the difficulties of the firm first be. CaXle obvious, and their suspension of payment on Mon:l4y morning was soon foreseen to be inevitable. Much anxiety will naturally be felt as to the manner in which the affairs of sn extensive a concern are likely to be wound up. We understand, on good authority, that there is no present probability of its terminating in a bankruptcy, but that trustees are to be appointed in the first instance, who will conduct the remaining iyisi sess for the benefit of the creditors. Whether that course can be persevered in or not, depends upon the rieeree of solvency of the firm. One of the partners is well known to be a man of very considerable landed tr operty. The decline of this house in credit is generally etnturted to the anxiety felt by the partners at the t i m e then the rate of interest was low, to make a pro. itable use of their capital, and hence they were led to employ it on securities capable of being realized only at a distant period, or of an inferior degree of cre.lit. The Bank Directors, it is said, rejected very few of the fo reign bills presented to them yesterday to discount. FRoM THE 11I0IININO CHRONICLE. An observation in lite (Amick of yesterday has, we learn, been misconstrued. " The exchanges (we said) are already so high, that gold and silver are below the milts price. The contraction of the paper as n-ces sully raises the exchanges as its extension lowers them." An inference has been •drawn from this, that we wished to have it believed that the Bank had ac tually contracted its issues. In fact, we understand, that so tar from this being the case at present, the Bank were never mere liberal than at presort; and yesterday, in particular, the conduct of the Bank gave the highest satisfaction." But the circulation of paper generally throughßet'the country must have bun very touch contracted•by the want of confidence in country hanks, and theemharrassment has forced good.; exten evelLinto the marker, and tempted purchasers (torn eery ll sorter. The cotton speculation, which was pro ive of so much distress in the North of England, , :arminared by attracting foreigners to our markets. s!in purchased th it for which' our speculators had pai I 'thigh price at a much lower price. The result of all this is, the influx of gold and silver 1140 . 111 e country, and the consequent rise of the ex. o:inges, and the place of country paper will, in many pl.rres, be stipilied by gold. The gold and paper can- Iva both circulate, and therefore if gold circulate more extensively there will be a contraction of the paper. No doubt, the want of confidence for some time will induce peop!e everywhere to retain a muish.greater amount of cash by them, to be prepared for unforeseen demands, than they would think of doing in other times. The present' state of alarm cannot be of long coati lattice. Those houses throughout the country which we in straitened circumstances, must soon sink under the pressure. Those who can sustain the immediate shock may he said to be out of danger. When it is seen that the evil does not spread, confidence will be quickly restored. When the effect of the failure of Pole's Bank an their country correspondents has been ascertained, we may then 54y, that the storm has nearly spent its ravages. One device the Country Banks have had recourse to in several places, with the idea, no doubt, of securing themselves against sudden demands. In some of the largest towns, the notes are payable in London only, and not also at the banks of the drawers. This accounts for the late large transfers of notes to London for payment. But though this device may succeed in ordinary times, it will be of little avail in times when credit is shaken. FROM THE NEW TIMES. Wimp we consider tt,e intricate and endless ramifica tiims which combine together the various parts of the commercial world, we shall perceive it is impossible that the evil, whatever it may be, can stop with this, one house, or even with its correspondents. Credit, both public and private, will be shaken throughout the island : and, 'therefore, all persons and all parties from Caithness to Cornwall, should join at once in administering a remedy to the general disease. A laudable example Was set at Plymouth, when, on the stoppage of Sir W. Elford's Bank, the Nobility, Gentry, and traders of the County came forward to declare their confidence in the other Plymouth Bank, and their determination to take its notes to any amount. It strikes us that some combination might be formed to give temporary support to all those provincial Banks which were connected with - Sir Peter Pale's house.— If the danger be stopped there, confidence will easily revive in other quarters. But whatever practical mea sure may be adopted to restore confidence, we are de cidedly of opinion that it should originate first, and without a moment's delay, in the great body of mer chants and traders of London. If they begin to move, they will no doubt be seconded by the Bank of Eng land: and the Bank will, in such a crisis, assuredly re• teive all the aid and countenance that it can reasonably ilesire from Government. The causes which led Sir Peter Pole's firm to sus- Pend its payments, were of a peculiar kind. So little nad any extraordinary demand on them been antici pated on Saturday, the Sd instant, that at three o'clock on that day one of the acting partners left town, as we have heard, for Brighton, at which time the balances were considered to be nearly 200,0001. h?ynnd the probable claims of that day. But that tell' afternoon unexpected demands came in to sv large an amount, t h at t h e h ouse declined it ad v•sable to consult, on the following morning, the t ; :mernor and Deputy. Governor of the Bank of Eng had, who agreed to advance the sum of 300,0001. on , the deposit discount pipes the demands of they 3d instant are said to have been occasioned by a false and malignant rumour propagated by a discarded sera vast of the istabliihmetit; the relief affoided by the Bank, however, would have obviated all difficulty, had not an article•appearedin a journal of Wednesday last, which carried alarm through the whole country. A new and far more serious panic now took place.— The house made vast exertions, and displayed almost unlimited .resources. It is a fact that the payments actually made by it in the course of the last week considerably exceeded one million sterling! But even this was insufficient, and thus one of the most eminent firms in the City of London fell, stabbed to the heart, by a paragraph in an incendiary Newspaper ! Deeply injurious as this occurrence must be to credit in general, we have at least some pleasure in being able to state that, though Sir Peter Pule and his partners have thought fit to suspend their payments for the prnsent, their funds are more that% adequate ultimately to meet every engagement. COUNTRY BANKS. Letters from the country have brought intelligence of two failures of provincial banks, but their circulation is said not to be extensive—that of Donsou and Co. of Huddersfield, and of EDMEADS and Co. of !Lid stone. The latter was one of the agency banks of Messrs. POLE, THORNTON, and Co. PLYMOUTH BANK.—Nothing has transpired relative to the affairs of the late firm of Elford and Co. since our last, nor is it likely that any correct information will be obtained till the assignees to the estate be chosen, which will take place, we understand, on the 23d inst. Every day brings forth new cases of distress of parties who h eve suffered by this failure, the sad e ff ects of ' which will be long and severely fel t in these towns and neighbouthlod. The stoppage of the respectable firm of Brown, Wi n . sor, and Coming, of the Ashburton Bank, announced in our last, we are happy in saying will not be attended with any ultimate loss to their creditors, as they have fixed an eady day in January to pay off all demands on the firm ; the suspension of payments entirely arose from a disappointment in not being able to obtain Pd from their correspondent in town, in consequence of the state of the money.market. We understand that their stoppage is merely temporary, and that when their affairs are arranged, the business of the bank will again be resumed. Confidence appears to be restored as k regards the remaining banks in this town and neighbourhood, and their business proceeds as quietly as if nothing had occurred. It appears from the Exeter papers, that a run took place on the different banking establishments of that city, but the demands being met with promptitude, it soon ceased.—lievooshire Freehokkr. A correspondent of respectability informs us, that by a letter received from Ashburton,she finds that the bank of Messrs. Brown, Winsor, •and Co. which recently stopped payment, will pay off their notes on the 2d of January next ; indeed, their notes are now current among the tradesmen of that place, In the present agitated state of public credit, we have much pleasure in giving publicity to this information, and hope it mfr quiet the alarm of many who are interested, within the circulation of this journal.—Bristol Journel. Smith, Hall, and Co.'s Northampton Town and County B ink stopped payment on Thursday mortaingt soon alter which a hand-bill was issued, stating that the business of the bank would be resumed on Saturday (this day). Four or five of the principal shopkeepers having announced that their cash notes would betaken in exchange for goods, great crowds flocked to their shops on Thursday ani yesterday, and made purchases. —Leicester Journal. REGULATIONS. The following are the existing Mint, regulations.which may be thought of some interest at the present time: 1. The gold sent to the Mint-office for coinage must be in ingots or bars, properly melted, and nigh to the standard fineness of the coin, and the quantity must not be less than 2001 b. weight troy, or about 10,0001. value. —2. The ingots must be assayed by the King's and Master's assayers at the Mint, before they are Weighed and taken in charge at the Mint-office. As soon as the assay reports are ready, notice will be sent to the im porter of the day fixed for the weighing, and he or his l agent must attend the importation.-3. Upon the ingots being weighed and imported into this Office, a Mint bill will be given, testifying the weight and fineness, and standard value of the ingots ; for which the im porter is entitled to receive an equal weight of coined monies.-4. The detention of the bullion, before the whole can be worked up and delivered in coin, is gene rally from five to six weeks ; but the importer, by a new regulation, may receive (if he pleases) at the same time with the Mint bill, a transferable order, .entitling himself or bearer to a delivery of coin fourteen days from the date of the Mint bill, at the rate of 75/. per cent. on the number of ingots of 151 b. weight imported, and the balance to be paid him in bullion, within one week after the de livery of the coin—making the detention, in this ease, only two weeks for three-fourths of the coin.- 5. The Mint bill must be given up to the office by the importer, on the delivery of the coin ; but if the bill should be paid in part only, or a transferable order, as above described, given, an acknowledgment thereof must be endorsed on the bill by the importer, and the bill will be retained by him till the balance is fully satisfied in cain or bullion. The transferable order must `also be endorsed on payment of the coin to the bearer, and given up to the office.-6. The importer is liable to the payment of all private charges and expenses pre vious to the importation, incurred in melting down the 'bullion into ingots, the assay thereof by the King's . and Master's assayers, and some small fees to the Mint pop ter ; but no public charge whatsoever, or deduction. from the standard value of the gold for seignorage, is , made for the coinage. The owner recei7es the value of his ingots in coin, subject to the regulations before mentioned, free of all expense. 7. No person can be allowed to send gold to the Mint, and re f ceive a Mint bill, but in the tarn and order of the importation. J. W. MORRISON. JOHN BARTON. . ROBERT SINGLET. Note.—These regulationsrefer to importations of an amount not less than iO,OOO/. value, ag specilltd in the first Article; but if a quantity under 10,000/. is imported, It must be subject to the de tention as formerly, and no transferable order will be granted. The days of importation are Tuesdays and Fridays, and the days of delivery 'Wednesday(' and Saturdays. ltuyal Glint, July 56, 1850. The Right Honourable the LORD MAYOR, and several other Gentlemen from the . City, bad a lung interview this morning, with the lisrtis Commissioners of 'his blajesty's Treaiury, in the ,Treasury Chambers, Whitehall. . I.4~~iATBEB:. bßettY-LAhlit. A ne* pertortiter' of the name bf Pitem Mute ids debut at this There're last night, in the character of Skylock, in The Merchant of Venice. Mr. Pans* has evidently had some practice on the boards, either in London or elsewhere. He was favoitrably rec-iireci by the audience. In figure and . countenance, Mr. Pius? seems better qualified for the Comic than the Tragic Muse, being rather too broad and good-hurboured look ing except when he frowns, to attract the peculiar favour of Melpomene. His first scene was his best, and his last was his worst. It was worse than his scene with Tribal, for in that his exclamation of ig I thank GOD, I thank GOD," on hearing of Antonio's ruin, was the very best thing he did. We need scarcely state, that he failed to mark the transitions of passion with much force or distinctness. The other character s were distri buted as usual. COVENT-GARDEN. The new Play of The t hree Strangers was repeated last night, and after it Giovanni in London was pro duced for the first time at this House, with Nladanie VESTRIS in her celebrated part. The Piece has been well got up, and went off with great satisfaction. ADELPHI THEATRE. The popularity of the performers, and the variety of 1 , the entertainments at this House, continue to draw crowds every night. After the performance of The Pilot last night, a new burletta was produced under the auspicious name of Success; and cert tinly it pro mises, from the recep inn it met with, to be no less than that which its title imports. Fashion, deputy to Era• pe.ror Whim, is personified by Mr. WRENCII,- who is in troduced in a very whimsicsl.co tome, and taking his place on a throne, summons before him his daughter Success, in the person of Mrs. Furz ciLLIAM. Next ap pear at this fantastical Princc's mandate the fi4urative represent'utives of most of the London Morning and Evening Papers, in dresses suitable to their respective characters. To all these Fashion gives a hearty wel come, thanks them for their past support, and com mends his daughter to their love and patronage. But it is in what follows that the met it and pleasantry of the piece lies. The suitors of Princess Success are, no doubt, numerous, ambitious, and enterprising. Zimiel, from the English Opera, comes in the person of Mr. T. P. COoKE, to woo the lady. All his pretensions lie in the singing of the Hunting Chorus of Der Freischutz, which the Princess rejects contemptuously in a pretty song, which was encored, and in which she tells him that she is sick of hear ing the chorus from the potboys in the streets, and other people of that class. Mr. YA tits next comes in the character of Mr. Mathews, whom he imitates ini mitably, both in voice, dress, gait, and manner ; he too is rejected. He is followed by Mr. J. REEVE, who imitates Mr. KEAN in Brutus; and after him by Mr. TERRY, as Mephistaphiles, who gravely lectures Success on the inconsistency of her mind, particularly towards poor Brutus, who, nursed in her lap, is now capriciously flung from her embraces. This allusion to the present condition of the representative of Brutus Was loudly applauded, and a sly simultaneous look of Mr. TERRY implied as much as if he said de Sc fai'ula narratur.— YATES, imitating Mr. YOUNG, reads another moral lecture to the Lady, who invites him to repeat Ifs visits to her. He replies, like a good master of human nature, that the longer he absents. himself, the m rte be will be desired. He will come, but he will, with !scorn, leave her company for the present to the enjoyment of Poli chit:4lo, who, personified by Mons. GoualLT, steps in' at the moment. Polichinello is just carrying off the Lady in triumph, when Paul Pry "just drops in." This imitation r f LISTON, by Mr. REEVE, was an exact copy. Mr. T. P. Comte, in the character of Long Tom Cea, in the Pilot, having the approbation of Cashion, takes Success from Punch, and detains her, with her own approbation and that of the company, at the Adelphi in the Strand. The Burletta was well received all through. OLD BAILEY-THIS DAY. --...e....- SENTENCES. At eleven o'clock, the Rem:moan came into Conn, and proceedel to pass sentence of Death on the follow. ing persons, none of whom had attained more than thirty years of age:— Thomas Gisrnore, Michael Davis, Frederick Thelwell, William Johnson, Jane Mackavoy, John Welsh, Thomas Johnson, Mark Brooker, James Pinkett, Cornelius lirisnan, James Edwards, John Williams, Williar* Dunn, John Lowe, Samuel Roberts, Thomas Winter Preston, and Monne Henry Reading. The RECORDICR pAticularly adverted to the cases of three of the convicts, to . whom, he said, he could not, consistent with his duty, hold out the slighte.t hopes of mercy, and whom he exhorted to immediately employ the short time allotted to them in this world, to pre pare for their awful fate. Eight were sentenced to be transported for life ; four for fourteen yours; and nearly forty for the term of seven years. The remainder of the prisoners were sentenced to various periods of imprisonment, and the Sessions adjourned. The usualTublic whippings took place In the Court-yard; to witness which, a very great crowd was attracted. One boy was caught in the act of picking a Gentleman's pocket of a handker chief, and taken into custody. FATAL ACCIDENT.—About ten o'clock on Friday morning, some workmen were in the act of putting the cornice on a new building in Moseley-street, Manches ter, adjoining the warehouse of Messrs. Cardwell, Longworth, and Co. when, by some accident, it broke from their hold, and fell upon a respectable looking young man, who happened, unfortunately, at this time to be passing underneath. He was immediately con veyed to the Infirmary, but medical assistance was of no avail—the skull had been dreadfully fractured, and the body considerably bruised. 'He lingered for ab int an hour, and then expired. This Anfortunate young man appeared to be a stranger in th town. He wore a black rock round his neck, and had on a blue coat, blue pantaloons, and Wellington boots, in the inside of which was written the word " Shrewsbury."—in his pockets were found about five pounds in money, but nothing could be gipthered from the remainder of their contents, but that he was one of those ill-fated brings called Authors.—ln a small green bag which he had carried along with him, were found a number of pam phlets, entitled The Eddystone Lighthouse—a Poem. Etch of these pamphlets were neatly folded in a piece of paper, directed " To the Lady or Gentleman of ibis house."
