Cont. 100 5 21 Scarlet Dye 50 3 51 The proceedings of yesterday at the Meeting of Pi opi ieters of Bank Stock, which we have inserted in another column, appear to have satisfied all parties. The Governor was questioned very closely by an emi nent Proprietor, arid replied with frankness and candour to every interrogatory the subject matter of which fell within his °Mehl knowledge. But there are some men who never will be satisfied with answers as to facts, and the worthy Proprietor alluded to seems one of those. After inquiring what was the amount of notes now in circ tilat on? and being informed that it was 18,200,0001. iliCh la 400,0001. less than it ss as at this time last year; alter fin Cher imitating how much Exchequer Bills had •be:n sold (the produce of which coming into the Bank diniinislies by so much the Notes outstanding), and being told chat bilis to the value only of 670,0001. had teen • so disposed of, and this not suddenly, but gra- dully, in the cow se of three months—and that, in fact, very little alteration had taken place in this respect, One way or the other ;—after, moreover, demanding what was the amount of money lent on the fecut ity of mortgage, and being answered that it was only 1,400,0001. altogether ;—finally, after asking what was the extreme amount of advances on the security of Stock pledged at the Bank, and being informed that it has baldly ever exceeded 480,000/. which was the same as the amount advanced on the like security prior' to the last half-yearly Meeting—after all this explicit information, the insatiable querist proceeds with the followinginterrogatory : 44 What has been the principal occasion of the recent extraordinary fluctuation in the Money Market ?" at which there was a full chorus of laughter—and, no wonder. The worthy Proprietor Might just as rationally have inquired of the Governor of the 'rank of England what was the principal cause of the late extraordinary rise in the price of Estex calt ei? and s% hy were his Majesty's loyal subjects com pelled, since the last Meeting of Prop:ietors, to pay no less than a shilling a pound for lamb and veal?— We doubt not that the intelligent Governor h.ts a shrewd guess in his own mind of the " principal cause" of both c;rcultstances. but how the subject-matter of eiller inquiry should fall within his official knowledge, i; probably apparent only to the Gentleman who so closely examined him. It appears, however, that on the 22d September, 18=2.3, the outstar4ling issues of. the Bank 'had been reducei to the very low point of 16,E•00,0001. That since then, by advance of money on the se cu;hy of mortgage and Stock together, the circu lating sr,edidm had been increased 1,880,0091. from st !licit, however, is to be abated 670,0001. called in by the sale of Exchegiltir Bills, leaving the increase only t,ato.ooei. and tlx vital circulation thus augmented becomes 18,010,0001. so that the Bank, in the course of the I.st two yiars, has only enlarged its discounts by the very.inconsiderable suar of 190,0001. Truly, therefore,' did we 'all along surmise, that the recent fall in tte prices of Stock : , and their present stationary con.thion, were attributable to c ithes totally independent of the This morning we received Hamburgh Papers to the 17th inst, and Dutch Journals to the 20th. Their con tents ate uninivrtant, and rather relate to the domestic than political affairs of Europe. The following ale extracts: .• ST. PICTERSBUROIL.SIIIFTSIIDER 3. By a convention conclod‘d.lreiwtien Count Neuel rode, Minister for Foreign Affairs, and !bunt Lebezel tern, Austrian Ambassador to this 'Coact, the impost called jar detradus is reciprrcally abolished between Russia and the Grand Duchy of Tuscany and the Duchy of Parma. The Minister of the Interior h engaged upon a new plan for the regulation of the political situation of the Tartars living in the Crimea. Mr. Disbrowe, the British Ambassador at this Court, has returned horn his journey to Finland. At the beginning of 1826, the abolition of the •as salage of all the inhabitants of the provinces in the Baltic will be completed. BRUSSELS, SEPTEMBER 18. Major-General Count Von Bentinck lately went to Liege to try the new method invented by him of load ing cannon. The trials, which have been made with the greatest care, by the artillery of that city, prove, that less powder is required, that the aim is much more sure, and th.tt the pieces will be longer serviceable. Accounts have been received at Antwerp from the East Indies. Colonel Stuers, Resident and Military Commander at Padang, is appointed Comurissoner of, the Government to take possession, in his MAjesty's name, of Fort Mailborough and Bencoolen, ceded to us by England in the late treaty. The expedition con• sists of a corvette and a brig, with 400 men on board. Ai won as our fl Ag is hoisted at Bencoolen, M. Stuers will go to Natal, to unite,that also with our possessions, by which the whole of the west coast of Sumatra, which we formerly shared with England, will be sub-' ject to our authority only. Perfect tranquillity pre-', vailed ar Padang when the letters came away. By the arrival of a Jamaica Mail, we have received Papers to the 10th of August. It will be seen that the Mexican Government suspects an attempt to introduce Spanish produce into Mexico, and that they have taken steps to prevent it. The following are extracts from the Jamaica Courant of the Ist of August: . _ =" - m . „saki PORT ROYAL, AUGUST 1. On Saturday, the following communication from Sir L. W. llalsted, to his Honour the Mayor, was posted in the Commercial Rooms: " &LRAM. P 01? ROYAL, JULY O. " Majesty's Consul-General in Mexico having ad dressed to me a ktter, of which the inclosed is a copy, I beg you will please to make the same public, in the usual manner, for the information of the merchants. " L. AV. HALSTED, Rear-Admiral." • " NIS UAJUTY'S CONSULATE•43IIiIIIAL. " MEXICO, MAY 49. " SIR--I have the honour to inclose a copy of a note I have re ceived from his Excellency M. Alalnan, Minister for Foreign Af fairs, dated the 14th instant, relative to a Resolution adopted by this Government, not to admit into the ports of the Mexican Re public any cargo which shall arrive from Cayo Hero sixty days after the receipt of the Circular of the Minister of Finance, which bears date the Ilth of this month. This Resolution is adopted in consequence of information that that hland is becoming a. depot for Spanish produce from the Havannah, in order to introduce it into the country, in contravention of the laws pro hibiting the importation of Spanish merchandise. Thompson's Wand is meant by Cayo Hum, but as the Minister for Foreign Affairs has not laid down the situation of It, I have requested a■ explanation. In the meantime I have to request you will be pleased to give publicity to the order, so as to caution British traders against the unpleasant consequence of its infraction. " CHARLES T. O'GORBIA 11, Consul-General." Several files of United States Papers, some of which are to the 2d instant, have reached us. In a preceding column we have given some extracts, by which it will be seen that the disputes between Brazil and Buenos Ayres ate just on the point cf breaking out into open war, unless it should be averted by the good offices of our Envoy to tEe Court of Rio deJaneire, Sir CHARLES STUART. That the provinces of Rio de la Plata in tend to assist the inhabitants of Monte Video (which was seized by the Portuguese Government cf Brazil some years ago) there can be no doubt; but yet we can not but consider tl e steps taken by tl e Emperor of BRAZIL as extremely rash and precipitate. The United States Papers announce the approaching departure of the French fleet direct for Fiance, thus putting an end to all the conjectures about the occupa. tion of Cuba, which were so freely hazarded both in this country and in the West Indies. A Baltimore Paper, cf the 2J of August, contains an extract of a letter from Buenos Ayres, announcing the arrival at the latter place of most of the unfortu nate Englishmen who h.td been so long shut up in Paraguay. Some of them give a strange account of the Director. Dr. Francis, who, they say, kills and con fiscates at his pleasure; and, without trial, shoots men, like sparrows, by half-a-dczen in a morning. The lantor, who was bred to the bar, and formerly pleaded at Buenos Ayres, is seventy-two years of age. His MAJESTY did not arrive in town to-day from Windsor, as was expected. We have the pleasure of recording another instance of the beneficence of the Kum, by the donation of 100 guineas which Lis MAJILSTY has lately made to the Society of Schoolmasters.

The Gentleman who lost his life by a pistol-shot, in a duel on Tuesday, u stated, was originally manager of an extensive Manchester warehouse in the City, who afterwards realised an in dependent fortune, and built a house at Edmonton, where he ri dded. His antagonist, Mr. S—a—w —D, was formerly a hop. merchant, who lately retired from business. The parties were dis tantly related, and the disagreement was a family one. The Charleston Papers announce the decease of Mr. PeNeetter, the ablest, perhaps, of the statesmen of America. He died at his residence in that city, on the 16th ult. His remains were honoured with a splendid military funeral on the day following. FlRE.—This morning, at five o'clock, a tire broke out in the lower part of the house of Mr. Sarno, dealer in chand lery, No. 3, Blandford Mews, - Blandford-street, Mary la-bonne, which was not extinguished till the lower part of the house and stock in trade were consumed. On its first appearance great fears were entertained for the Mews. Fortunately, by the exertions of the firemen, they were saved. The While Fast of the Jews commenced at sun-set on Wednesday evening, and continued until sun-set yesterday even ing. The Synagogue in Moorfields waa crowded at three o'clock in the afternoon to excess. Many Christians were present to wit ness the interesting and imposing ceremony. The singing was un commonly fine, and among the congregation were many persons of great wealth and distinction, who remained in the Synagogue from the commencement to the conclusion of the ceremonies. ADELPHI THEATRE.—The comic strength of the company at this Theatre, under the new management Of TERRY and YATES, promises to be most effective. These Proprietors have judiciously retained the old favourites of the establishment, and intend, we under. stand, to aid their attraction by the potent addition of their own well-known talents. The Theatre is under going several alterations and improvements, prepara tory to its opening, early the next month. The saloon sill be newly fitted up, ia a style combir.ing chasteness and splendour, and the accommodation of the Public in every respect attended to. That praiseworthy Institution, the Guardian Society, has been compelled to 1 m't its facilities of doing good, by a falling off in its funds. A Meeting of its friends was held yesterday, when a statement of its affairs was made, and much benefit is anticipated from the LORD MAYOR having promised to preside at a Meeting to be called in its behalf. RIOT AT THE CA LTON GAOL—A considerable alarm was etched at Edinburgh, on Monday, in consequence of the sudden movement of a party of the 17th Regiment, to quell a disturbance amongst the prisoners in the Cal ton Gaol. Various rumours hive gone abroad, but the following is the actual occurrence:—Some of the convicts, by great ingenuity, contrived to break into the cell of, and rob a poor man, who has been long an inmate of the prison. A search was resisted on the part of the convicts, and the det:tors were called to assist the officers of justice. This was considered a great breach 'of decorum, and a violent attack was commenced upon the debtors. A recent delivery of coals gave the as. sailants the command of a large supply of missiles, which they hurled at the debtors and turnkeys, who were soon discomfited, with a few slight bruises. The convicts, once infuriated, proceeded to demolith some of the gates, to enable them to get together in greater force ; and, ai the thing was so sudden, the military were with great propriety called in, when the convicts immediately submitted, and were all strongly ironed, and shut up in the it cells. Must of the stolen articles have been recovered, but there was not the slightest intention to break the prison, though such a report was current all over the town. Captain Young, the Gover nor of the gaol, has returned from Leadburn, on the Peebles' road, where he had apprehended two of the convicts who &cape(' some stecks ago. 7Hr Anmv .

THE LATE mils. WELLESLEY POLE LONG, We have before stated that the remains of this mueb la - teem e d Lady were removed on Monday morning last from Richmoid, interment in the family vault at the seat of Lady *Filmy, her m~ ther, Draycot, Wiltshire. Two days previous to the removal of l e remains from Richmond, intelligence reached the friends of tlelec unhappy Lady, that it was the determination of Mr. Wellesley Long to come over from France to attend the funeral, and this c 4.• cumstances gave them all great pain and uneasiness; hot ~ Sunday last, the day before the removal of the remains, a C.:ne t arrived at Richmond front Mr. Wellesley Pule Long, from Franz', to state that he should not attend the funeral, bui beating a i p eeenip , tory order from him, that his three children, two buys and a g:1, should be given up to the Courier, to be conveyed to France, these to be brought up and educated under the auspices of their either. The .Misses Long, sisters of the late unforttni .re Lady, who frai l the period of ber separation from her husband to her de:,t's have constantly resided with her, immediately on the steak of their amiable sister, removed to another house. taken re; the temporary purpose, in atibther part of Richmond, and thi:Tier they of course removed with them the three children. 01 the arrival of the courier, he directed his steps to the !roue , 0: the Misses Long, and demanded the children, according to th,. written order he produced ; but he received a direct refueal to deliver them up from these Ladies, and he retraced his steps back again alone, to the place from whence he came. On Tuesday. aie Misses Long set off from Richmond for Draycot, there to join t!wtr mother, Lady Tyln.y. Previous, however, to their departure from Richmond, whither they intend to return after the funeral, they determined to adopt every precaution to prevent the chiltlreu from being carried off by stratagem or by force. Accordingly, anticipating that Mr. Wellesky Pole Long might, carry off the children during the absence of the Misses Long, in Wilt shire, these Ladies applied, through their Law Agent, to a Magis trate, for the aid of a Peace Officer, to remain in their house a: Richmond, in care of their house and all its inmates until their return; and at this moment an active and discreet Police Officer is, and basibeen since Tuesday, residing in the house of the Misses Long at Richmond, where the children are; and his directions art to take into custody any person, be he whom be may, who sh:11 attempt to use any violence towards the property, the ',ew e , et its inmates. One of the children is a girl not five years old. DONCAsI ER. WZMIZIDAT NIG HT, TWELVE o'CLocr. Such was the extraordinary attraction of the 'laces yesterttiy, that the road from Doncaster to the Course was crowded with equipages, in a continued line, for upwards of an hour and a half, and the extensive paths on eoch side were completely lined will, well-dressed females and others, journeying to the Course. In the town, the streets might be compared to Holborn and the nei:L. bouring streets, thronged with passengers on their route to Bartho lomew Fair. At an early hour in the morning the betting•men a , . ambled in groups in different parts of the principal streets, where they kept till the doors of the new betting room were opener!, when a rash took place, and it was filled to excess in a few minute!: indeed, not a twentieth part of the subscribers spuld got in. Those remaining °mid, then assembled in clusters; as on Newmarket Heath, which in some degree impeded the passage of the numero:.• barouches, coaches and six, &c. and thus it continued till about half past twelve o'clock, when a great many of them moved off take their stations in the Grand Stand. The Course prescittd a picture of unexampled grandeur, and seemed as if the noble and wealthy of the land had concentrated here; for su magnificent 111 assemblage of rank, beauty, and fashion, is not within the rt.ol - of the oldest man on the turf. The interest excites! by the St. Leger Stakes was so great, that the odds have been looked after with avidity, not only on the. Con tinent, but in the East and West Indies. The race yesterday se:o a beautiful spectacle. As the hordes successively came up to the post, and took a canter pursuant to regulation, the greatest anxiety was manifested. The overwhelming interest of the moment alt. , sorbed every feeling, and all eyes were fixed with an intensity of gaze on the noble creatures on whom so many hundreds of thou sands depended. When all were assembled for the start, the beauty of the racers, and the motley but lively colours of the 'filers, had a very picturesque and brilliant appearance. We have repeatedly heard of Gentlemen Proprietors making scarcely any addition to their jockiee' demand of 5/. for riding a winning horse, and as often beard of very handsome compliments, even amounting to hundreds, by the more liberal; but we never knew a greater instance of unbounded liberality than occurred yes. terday in the proprietor of Homer and Dauntless, who, in the hearing of our Reporter, enabled both his jockies (Cbiffney and Goodison) to stand on the winning of Homer for the Sr. Leger, the sum of 10004 to nothing each ; or, in other words, if Hunnr won, each was to receive a gratuity of 1000 sovereigns.
