sou of about £18.000,000 which the Bank paid as The molten of it, in annual proportions during the lost six yews: It seems hardly necessary again to explain that the original plan was this. That Government were to pay on anima of £2,800,000 for 44 years, to such patties as would agree to pay in return for it certain annual sums, not actually depending on the lives of public servants,• entitled to half pay and pensions, but sums defined in the Acte—which sums gradually decrease in each year from £5,000,000, till their ex tinction at the end cf forty four years. This opera tion being too large for any body or set of persons to enrage in, the Bank of England purchased a part of the annuity of £2,Boo,ooo—vix. £sBs,ooo.paying for that portion of it the sums defined in the Act for the first six years, or thereabouts, which was it; estimated value; and thus the Government, in point of fact, ob tained a loan during those six years from the Bank of about £1S,000,000; for which consideration they have paid, and must continue to pay, £585,000 per annem, from 182 S to 1867. This annuity is therefore now an Annuity Stock similar to the Long Annuities, and may be sold as such in the market whenever the Bank thinks proper to dispose of it.

Hitherto dime is every reason to belimie that the Persian Government bad no pan in it. Filled wit► oonstitrnation by this horrible crime, it eagerly offers the most es• tensive satialaetioa. A person in the confidence of Abbas Mires km been sent to General Paskewitsch at Teak, to be the bearer of the first expression of his regret; and one of that person's eons will speedily follow with a similar mission. TM honourable conduct of the British Legation at Taints on this occasion is worthy of the great Monarch and the great Power which it has the bonier to represent. As son♦ as Mr. Macdooakl, the English Envoy se Taut's, was informed of this melancholy event, he sent to Mires Hassan Rim. the Schab's Minister of Foreign Affairs, a dispatch of which the following are the principal points. lie observes that, in consequence of this catastrophe, all confideute is de stroyed, and that it would be in vain to pretend that the re presentative of any Power can henceforth think himself safe in Persia; that it is not enough that the Government disavows proceedings the consequences of which, perhaps, it fears itself, but that it mist offer complete satisfaction; that the instigators of the massacre, and those who perpetrated it, must be given up s wherever they may be; that no rank ought to protect them—no sanctuary serve them as an asylum—no subterfuge be employed to screen them from the punishment which they have merited ; and that if the Government is nut able to clear itself completely front the suspicion of any participation whatever in the crime which has just been committed, not only Russia, but the whole civilised world will become its enemy. " It is Captain Macdonald, brother to the Envoy, who has been sent with this note to Teheran. He had orders to take under his special protection the officers and individuate of the Russian Lega tion, who had survived the massacre, and to conduct them to Tauris. He has be , ides declared, that the slighted Insult or vio lence towards them would cause him, and the British subjects placed under his unless, immediately to quit the Persian territory. _ .

Nearly all the provinces compris ing this Republic are hostile to the late revolution, and have threat. toed vengeance, but Lavalles late successes have frightened them, u he has got from I to 4,000 veteran troops to back him, and they will be faithful to him as long as they are regularly paid.

His !email for withdrawing the motion o a , . the occurrence of riots which had been committed by that body of persons. • Mr. GALLOWAY, for one, gave his assent to the will-- draw/al of the motion. lie certainly thought that the Court ought to be alive to the buffetings of the indir-. Kiwis past of the community, but it a ,y body of people so far mistook their own interests a. to engage in acts of violence as a means of witainitig redress, it WAS his opi. nines that they ou4ht to be taught that eat Coon dis co•inte naoced such a cOur a ut pit ceeding. He hoped the course which the' Court a ould adopt on th►s occasion would apes me AS a salutary lesson to the worki•.g ci asses of the community ; it would, he trusted, make them un derstand that they never could obtain red: css by com mitting acts of violence or destroying the pioferty of individuals; and that whenever they reward to such conduct. they .did themselves the greatest nitschiet. The Loan MAIMIL expressed hi. concurience iu what had tallest fr.,m Mr. Galloway. Tne di-cses which had prevailed for the last six months among the silk weavers bad been the occasion of subscriptions being raised to relive it. Very large sums of money had been trans mitted through his hands for the relief of the Sputal. bells weavers; and even on the very day when those out breaking: which had lately taken place commenced, MX was sent to him by certain individuals its the city of Durham. He mentioned this et; cumstance in confirmation of what had just be n stated by Mr. Galloway. It was very desirable that tha• Corp ration and every public body should come tor ward with as. • sistance, When misfortune and distress overtot•k the in. dustrious artisan; at the same time they ought t di counts4ance him and leave him to his own means,when he took the law into his own hands, and attempted to destroy the very Means by w hich he might obt 4in for the future a livelihood for himself and his family. He would inform the Court of a circumstance which had been men. tinned to him, and which he had very g•sod reasons fur believing—namely, that many of those Intim which were destroyed on Tuesday night were actu ally pro. doting to the owners from 251. to 28s. a week, thus of fording them the means of a competent maintenance. He theri fore thought that the cute ages which had b• en committed by the Spital6elds stemless constituted a most seri..us offence. Mr. Searsesusom said be doubted the fact that so much as front lie. to 28s. was earned by journeymen in the present deresmot awe of the ►ilk trade. The Lean Mait►e informed the Ceurt that be bad received his loturination from a vary ea; entive silk irtanufortut.r. Mr. Ciatanwav said, that the Court did not proses. eight, any opinion whether the silk weaver was overpaid or underpaid. but it declared that violence was nut the proper meant of obtaining rebel. What would be the consequence of the outrages committed by the SpitallSelds weavers? They would have the edict of driving sway the silk trade trim Spirdfields. The minium was then withdrawn. The Court. after cussideriug various seders, adjoerned at half. past two o'clock. T e LORD MAYOR has nominated the following Gen tlemen for the office of Sheriff—Wan Etas, Eq. chitin and ; Pens Pen Finn, Erg Ciliftll and haberdasher; JAMIte Coo • • Esq. citizen and ,:over; Wituam Maar Perron, citizen and painter stankr; NV/LUAU HUMS' ILICSAIMON, Esq. citizen and painter. We may coogratulate the public up .n .he iet Ut Is ()f peace among the weaver of the metropolis, and we Outbid equally _orrice if the disturbances to the manufacturing diiitricts in the country were progressing to the same desirable end. At Stockport there has been some rioting, and the weavers attacked the Magis tracy and constables, who were endeavouring Yrestore order, bit without effect. The military were then directed to fire and after about slaty rounds had been fired ever the beads of the rioters th. y dispersed. Several of them were taken into nstody.and seat to prnoo. Last night, between eight and• nose o'ctor k. the b e at Ten p:eabar which had been subdued in the mot Ling broke OUI afresh, and the engines were again cal ed ritt,, requisition, and continued to play ou the ruins till a la e hour at right; but there does not appeal any probability of the fire extending its ravages further. About chive o'clock in the afternoon a large stack of chimneys he longing to the Sun, which stood tottering. a..d ihreat. ening destruction, was pulled down by the firem• who contrived with great difficulty to get a rope round it, and by their united exertions it fell down towards Temple Bar with a most tremendous crash. Two stacks are still remaining in a most dangerous state, and are expected to fall every instant. The houses destroyed we those heloneir g to Mr. ,Carlisle, bookseller—nothing saved; Mr. Harper, silver smith—stock little saved, furniture &c. destroyed; the Sun Tavern, nothing saved; a house adjoining,kept by a sweep named Solomon,, nearly buret to the grotnid ; three houses opposite—the roofs burnt and considerably damaged; Mr. Uitonson's, Fleet•str etc, damaged—in a dangerous state, and expected to tall down. Two houses also. Nos. 46 and 47, in Bell yard, bin longing to Mr. Mason, green grocer, the back part en tirely burnt. The house of Mr.Lticas, N 0.45, adjoining. partly damaged at the back. Tile last mentioned houses being old, with some others, it is expected they must be pulled down. The cellars of Mr.Havokins are flow filled with water, and it will take some hones to draw it off. From the time of the first appearance of fire in Mr. Carlisle's house till the whole of the twolouses were JD one continued blaze, there was not a lapse of more than twelve minutes.
