The profits have certainly been inamen,e, un ralkled in all former histories r.f banking, and scarcely • ualled by those of the Bank monopcgies of EngtancL 'But the profits of these latter establishments, flowing from no speculative sources, are perfectly intelligible. They had beyond the interest on their deposits and capital, the profits of an exclusive issue of Govern mnst paper. The profits of the Scotch Walkers have Chiefly arisen from lucky investents: of enormous issues of borrowed money in the public funds.. A large proportion of the 2Q or 25 millions of deposits neces sarily found its way itvo the 3 per cents. when the price ruled from 50 torrO. • The Bankers reaped the advan tage on the return of peace, of n rise to $5 and 95 and in many instances divided the profits. An equal proportion of the present deposits is' probably now invested at the higher prices. Is there any imps• sibility of the occurrence of events which may subject them to a different ordeal, and their investments to a depreciation of 20 or 30 per cent? Would not such event. necessarily create alarm, and expose these Brokers to a demand from their depositors for investments in Stocks at low prices? Beyond Asia, their present mode of conducting their affairs, and the rate of interest they have been paying to their creditors foe the last tee years, leads to the inference that they have not hems over prudent in the good times, and that too Urge,* proportion of their resources may have been invested in fixed securities. On what other ground can we understand their paying 4 per cent. (and now we believe three 3 to 3/ 1 per cent.) for borrowed mosey, while in London capitalists. cannot get more than 2 to 21 for loans, at short periods, or for the best bills? The very difference they have succeeded in ertablishing between the currency of the two principal parts of the Empire, lrads,'in some degree, to such an anomalous state of things; and of what use are any precautions or regulations in England, if we are subject to the possible contingency of an alarm or panic from Scotland, OR the occurrence of any political convulsion ? By law, Scotch mates as well as English, are payable in speck on de mised. It is true, Scotch prejudices -ate stated to 4e invariably in favour of paper, bat prejudices of this de scription sometimes turn very stadskely in oppoaite.di rections. If alarm was to take place, it would be violent in proportion to the preceding feeling of security, and then what becomes of the currency of England?

In the supposition that it will be fit 4; r bid Ton fareoell, in the only language that is now left to me. I 'ant perfectly indifferent as to thyself, but Ilitiit, most earnestly . , that Mr. Batton (towards whom I have not the faintest enmity of any kind) may escape. I admit that I am in the wrong—that by giv ing him a blow, I have forced him into the condition of a challenger ; and that by not doing what he has, he would have blasted his character as a Gentleman for ever. In 'cothmon . justice, I am bound thus to absolve bids from suspicion of unbecoming conduct, respect ing toe challenge. The provocation , though a l ig ht, was sti U a /r evocation, which I could not overlook. It is out of the Sluestion for ase'to explain, retract. or apo logize. I will not heir of any settlement short of some abject and craven subiniision from him. 4 , Mr. Barton is a talking Irian, who dwells very COM• placently oil his own skill as a marksman; on his ex perience as a . duelßst, .and on his accuracy as a person of tow- I pretendlo Dose of these, and therefore must oppose the most iidlexible 'obstinacy.

They are forced down en the eiticree frontlers by a powerful Chief called Chaim, svh6, in regions almost unknown, to us, has srread terror by the strength and number of his arms. Two yrars since, about two thousand per sons a ere received into this colony, to which they had fled for refuge. They are called •Matitatees, aticksaid they were 'Liven dowa on us by royrlads Of savages, that were destroying and truing all b6fore them. It is certain they are alt Anthropophagi, and that it was then their intention to attack us ; but at that time, having sustained great losses in battles with other nations beyond their lines, they were obliged to re. tire. A letter has just been received from a Captain of ours, stationed on our outposts, which mentions that the Caffres (friendly to us at present) had informed Li-utenant Colonel Somerset, that tribes from unknown regions were pressing on aern, marching south with twenty, thousand men, all drawn from their own country by Chaka. Though peaceably inclined, hear. ing the Caffre land was excellent grazing ground, they had all come to settle there. At this the Cadres are very much alarmed, and are flecking into our settle.. menu. Lieutenant Governor General Bourke imam" diately proceeded to our frontier, and all the artillery received orders to be in readiness. I therefore expect every day to embark on board the Owen Glendower frigate, no.w here, to go up to Graham's Town. We leave our families and luggage behind. These savages are only armed with spears, which they throw with uncommon force and dexterity, and will hit at sixty yards distances and as they have never yet been in contact with' the European mode of warfare, it is thought, should they press on, they must he cut to pieces. I shall not close this letter till I hear more. 'The interior of this vast continent is as yet very little known. The Missionaries . say, that the population is immense, and that they war on each other for food, which is by no means abundant. and when hard pressed they teed on each other. This. I believe, is mentioned in all geographical works, and that the interior nations ate most all of them Anthropophagi.

But Thompson will give you much mere amusing informa tion of the% savages, who, not knowing the use of fire arms, must be easily defeated with a small regular force. Yet they must still be guarded against ; for was not Europe once overrun by hordes of Northern in. rages? And who can say but the Cape may not me* the same fate, surrounded with such immense multi. Ludes? And what is-worse than a starving host, pressed on by famine, and driven from their own country by more powerful tribes? I assure you it is the general opinion here that the time will come when the Cape will have very formidable neighbours to contend with. garrassarra 20, 1627.—The bend quarters of our regiment have embarked for Alps Bay, on board the Owen Glendower frigate, leaving all, families, ire. behind.

We answer that such an acknowledgmenti(ifmtbade) would not improve their case; but we have now pro. vided some security against.that evil in knglanck..and we could still go further and check the issue of bank notes, by any Banker paying 'interest for money in his hands.
