4 • I:•• the "Standard of Allah,"*llich, according'td the ideai . ;blattontedans, is the greatest proof 4 opposition. The PrinsLot - Badjoa has been severely aoundeci and cAtried off as Boni. The loss of thernemy• in this affa 7 r must have been considerable, as fittnr3oo to 400 men were found dead on the field. No reports have been received yet as to our loss, it will, however, not exceed twenty men, and besides which are two Officers wounded. On the 30th, the General, with the cavalry, two pieces of artillery, and two companies of infantry, went reconnoitring towards Boni, at which place, having found the country completely deserted, he arrived the same day about three o'clock, P.m. The place appeared to have been evacuated by the inhabitants but a very short time bef le the etvering of our troops. In the Queen's Palace, fifteen pieces of artillery were found, besides other small arms, &c. Nothing has yet been ascertained as far as regards the Queen and Princesses' it is reported they fled to Snepa, others say to Manipi, four miles distance from Boni. It is painful fair Its to say, that however small the number of kill.d and wounded may be, that of the sick is on the contrary very considerable. It amounted to about three hundred men, but was rather on the de crease. We may shortly expect the detailed official reports of the Major General commanding the expedi tion; in the meantime, the Governor-General, in order to celebrate this happy event, has ordered a royal salute to he fired in the camp of Weltevreden and Buitenzorg, which seas done accordingly this day.

But we rejoice to announce, by infallible signs, the re appearance of ti anquillity among the higher classes in rrercantiie credit; although much suffering is still to he expected among the countless numbers who depend for the ordinary transaction of their aff irs on that ac commodation which they bad been accustomed to re ceive from the liberality of their Bankers. • The Stocks have recovered from their agitated state, and are now steadily rogainng their natural price—an evident proof that the Town and Country Bankers have already converted into money ss much •f those securi lies as were necessary to sustain the demands upon them by their more timid and frightened customers;and hence, tie panic having subsided, it is evident that the ordinary re-investment of unnecessary balances will speedily take place, and money, in consequence, sill be returned into circulation as rapidly as it had recently disappeared. For much of this we are indebted to the manly and praise-worthy declaration of the Meeting at the Mansion Douse, which, as we predicted, was eminently calcu lated to restore public confidence. It has been signed by 700 names of the highest respectability ; and their example has extended itself into the provincial districts with the same beneficial effect. The declarations of the Country Gentlemen and Magistrates in various Counties, not wily in the safety of their respective local Bank., but including an offer of personal guarantee in some histantes, has paralysed the alarms, which, if they had ceniSubcd, would have overwhelmed the whole Ern led destroyed every vestige of security And credit • Em e, • -frith of the benefit, however, is also to be attributed Print, which Iris liberally extended its discounts, -1100 0 - estbilitursl in all asses private transfers of Consols Ratted Four per Cettts. subsequently to their .~ - shutting.; and has. moreover, as a more efr coal re-' medy, advanced money, 4 is said, on the security of Stock, to a very considerable extent, thereby render ' ing it nnnicessary for the proprietors'to bring it to a forced sale under ruinous disadvantages. The Cabinet also met yesterday on the rccasion, and. after long deliberation, were attended by the Governor and Deputy Governor r.f the Bank. The result has not as yet transpired, hut we may confidently p.ediet, or at least express our earn est hopes, that the only remedy in the power of Government to apply will not be long untried. The Bank having attended to the safety of the com mercial world, it is incumbent on Government to look to the welfare of the Bank. A prodigious mass of the cir culating medium in paper and coin has been withdrawn, during the reign of terror, from the ordinary channels, and it is for the moment hoarded in private coffers to meet possible contingencies, which may or may not hap pen. The Bank has supplied the void, in the meantime, by additional issues. But there is an evident and over-, powering necessity for setting limits to the extension of those issues, by the sale of Exchequer Bills at higher interest than those now in circulation; for.it is impos. sible to extend the one without diminishing the other.' As the credit of the country Banks improves, dirk issues of local paper will increase. This will return tie Bank of England notea on the market, which must be ab so: bed by means of Exchequer Bills—else the conse quence will be too fearfully felt in a f' reed sale of the Stock now pledged at the Bank for the tem porary issue, in a heavier discount of the. Exche quer Bills now afloat, in their consequent return to, the Exchequer instead of Revenue, and in the neces sity of an equivalent issue of B .nk Notes for the public service :—all which would be avoided by a new issue of Exchequer Bills at higher interest, as these would com pel a return into circulation of the money now hoarded by individuals. An Exchequer Bill at 3d. per diem may be locked up to meet a forthcoming engagement, and its sale may be depended on at a premium. Not so a Bill bearing only 'lid. per day, which we have seen within these few days at a discount of 60. We earnestly hope, therefore, that the measure will be resorted to without delay, as the most effectual re n.edy to the Bank, and the Public, for the existing evils. German Papers to the 10th inst. reached us this fore noon. One of them contains an article from . Alexandria, confirming the account of the sailing of the Turco- Egyptian expedition, on the 17th and 18th of October. The fleet is said to consist of 14 frigates, 14 corvettes, 42 brigs. 10 fire-ships, 20 armed Turkish transports, 28 European brigs, and the London Engineer steam boat ; another, built at Alexandria, sprang a leak as it was leaving the port. The troops arc 8,000 in fantry, disciplined in the European manner, and 1,000 cavalry. The iota' expense-of the expedition is esti mated at fifty millions of piastres, or the valve of 100,0000 bales of cotton. The Captain Pacha receives 100,000 piastres. The expedition appears to have landed in the Morea. The Oriental Spectator states, that the Greek pirates are very active in the Archipelago, but that the French Admiral, MONT, had recovered a large quantity of goods, f which the French vessels had been plun dered. The declaration of British neutrality in the war between the 'Tusks and the Greeks, had given great pleasure_ to*the Turkish Ministers and Franks in Constantinople. The following are mum : CONSTANTINOPLE. Nov. 7.—(Bv WAY OF BUCHAREST). On the 3d of this month news was received here of the renewed declaration of neutrality, published in London by the British Government, and the consequent stopping of the much-talked-of expedition of Lord' Cochrane, which had excited such extraordinary fears here. The news ran like wild-fire through the quar ter of the Franks, and gave the greatest pleasure to the Turkish Ministers. Mr. Stratford Canning, %%lions we expect as British Ambassador, will open an easy way to his negotiations with the Porte, by the commu nication of so decisive a declaration, in consequence of which the cause of the Greeks is here considered as desperate. CONSTANTINOPLE, Novnista 18,—(13v Fannon.) Since news has been received here that the Ottoman fleet from Alexandria has reached the cost of the Morea, without any opposition from the Greeks, and landed its troops at NAvarino, on the sth of November, it is generally believed here, that Ibrahim PAcha will make a new and serious attack on NApoli di Romania. It is said, that part of the expedition will be employed against Missolonghi. We expect Mr. Canning very shortly, as he was to embark at Corfu on board the Cambrian frigate. TRIESTE, Novzstsis 29. At length we have news direct from the Archipelago to the 7th of November. On the 3d of November, the united Greek fleet, consisting of seventy-five ships of war, and thirty-five fire-ships, s•+iled from the vithtity of Ilydra, to seek the futkish and Egyptian fleet, which has landed the troops at Zcavarioo, and if cir cumstances permit, to attack it. The French Papers of Wednesday have reached us. Au article from Madrid of the 2d instant, states, as a report, that the Spanish Minister had received intelli. Bence that the ships which lately sided from Cot nuns for the Ilavannah, had fallen , into the hands of the Colombians; this we think by no means improbable. A private letter from Napoli di Romania of the 20th October, states that an engagement had tak. n place between IBRAHIM DACHAS Wily and a body rf 2000 Greeks, under then Aß, which terminated in favour of . the latter, wit.) titled two hundred of the enemy, wounded a treat, number, captured most of the ptovi• • . - sinus of t!;e Egyptian army, and liberated 200 woreer and children they had taken prisoners. Accounts from Zante of the 12th November, stay, that another engageinent had tak. n • place between t• Meeks and the Egyptian army, in which the latter were defeated, with a loss of 700 men. fides We have received hurpore Chron: to the 10th of June, and have inserted, from one of them, •ome accounts from I%lacassar, of the operations of ne Dutch in their Indian possessions. The Dutch appear sadly to undervalue the cessions we have made to them on the West Coast of Suinatra, for they have detei tinned to place Bencoolen under the Residency of Padang, to be adn►inisterei by a Civil Assi s tant.

FAIMINGDoN WARD WITHOUT.--A lively canvass for the representatson of this extensive and highly re spectable Ward in the Common Council has com menced, and a spirited contest is expected on the day of election. Some incidents which occurred at Banking-houses in the City,. during the present week, are worthy of being preserved as cha raderiitic of the crisis, as well as evincing the manner in which the difficulty has been met. _ _ One establishment, not far from the Mansion-house, owing to turnout s, had to sustain a run for invr days, in the course of which, 1 . .,7G0,0001. was paid. Several persons who kept cash in the house, and 'applied to the principal for information respecting the state of its ;traits, could only obtain fur answer, " We attend to no such questions ; your balance is teady, take it and place it where you think it will be in greater piety." The principal pat tner attended in peripit behind the counter during the whole of the run, and kept the bailing-house open an hour later than usual. One house extensively connected. with Country Banks, was ex posed to a tremendous run, solely on that account.. They extended the hours of business till eight o'clock, and satisfied all comers with the utmost promptitude. The finial Exchange Assurance Company have given notice on the Stock Exchange, that they are ready to advance money on a:1 1 stuck of their capital thit might be pledged with them. . •• DOVER, DEc 45.; y .r yi u s e S s e d r :y ne eT l en iig io h : e la ss u l . l7 t on Highness has remained until this morniiic the weath er h o been too tempestuous yesterd a y f or any vessel to . sail.t o or c opposite coast.

FUNERAL OF THE LATE DUCHESS OF RUTLAND. Friday the remains of the late much. la mented D.ichos of Rutland were deposited in the family v +tilt at 11.4- tesf ord. The anxiety to IA itne.s the In toilful ma was intense, and at an eat ly hour crowds of inhabit., Is of vicinity had assembled to pay the last tribute of respect to their esteemed henef actress. Every precaotas had been taken . to ensure the preservation of sod to Om that solin p ity desirable on so melancholy as occasion.

The funeral processim left Behr& Castle at ten o'clock, and proceeding through Itedmile, Leicesteohire, and Elton, Nottinghamshire, arrived at Bettesford about one. It was followed by a long line of starrisges anti other vehicles. The procession, in the first instance, proceeded to the Rectory-yard, Bottesford, where it was about one hour. The remains of the lamented Lady were then taken No the hearse, and carried into the Church by eightCoa• tlemen.
