LONDON, FRIDAY. NOVLMBIR 11, 1995. Last night we received the Paris Journals of Tuesday ; those of Monday also had arrived in the course of yester day. From the latter we have given extracts in another oelumn. We subjoin the few paragraphs. of political interest we find in the papers of Tuesday. The private correspondence of the Journal des Debate draws a melancholy, but, we fear, too true a picture of the state of the Peninsula. The Apostolic party have now the unlimited command of public affairs, and it is to be appre hended will frightfully abuse the power they possess. "f he overthrow and expulsion of M. Ze A appears to have been wholly an intrigue of their hatching. According to the journals of the South of France, which, from their preximity, have the best means of information, the success of the ascendant faction was achieved by an offer to re plenish the exhausted coffers of the Royal treasury. The Memorial Bop-de:ale states the sum of about twenty-five millions of teals (about 230,0001.) as the amount offered by the Clergy for the dismissal of M. ZEA ; but the I ndicutear de Bordeaux, with more probability, asserts that the price of the negotiation wu forty millions of reels (about 400,000/.). 11'e can easily conceive that, in the present distrtss of the Spanish Court, such offers would hardly be rejected. If the moderate party could have given more, M. ZEa might yet have kept his portfolio. King Fsantoanp had no dislike either to him personally, of to his political system; but neither had he any affec tion for one or the other. Spain, therefore, la again aban doned to the wildest excesses of party rage. I: seems that the first act of the new Minister, the Duke de I'INFAN• IADO, was to hold a council to consider the propriety of (whin upon the French Governinent to withdraw its troops. So intent are the Apostolic party on the removal of these foreigners, whose presence restrains their fury, that it is stated they have even offered to raise, upon the revenues of the Church, a sum sufficient to liquidate the claims of France for the expenses of FERDINAND'S deliver aace from the Cortes. The Courrier Franrais affirms positively that vessels of Agar are building at Marseilles, for the service of the Vice - - roy of EGYPT. The keel of a frigate of 44 guns is laid. The Marquis de Ltertoir, lately returned 6om Alexan dria, superintends the progress of these preparations for the extermination of the unhappy Greeks. (From the Mortiteor of Tuesday, Nov. 2.

The news which we find to.day in the Qtuiiiiiiemire, of the for. mation of two new regiments for the service of the Colonies, is entirely false. A new regiment of the line (the Slit) has just em barked. for the Antilles, amidst cries of Vire k Rai ! The fall which the public funds have experienced at Amsterdam is attributed to a project for a loan of fifty tnillions of florins, which the Government of the Netherlands is supposed to intend to contract, for the service of the Colonies. The speech on the opening of the Session seems to indicate some measure of this kind. [From theJordrreal tle Paris of Tuesday.] :P•ats, Now. 7. We learn from Cnrunna, says the FcitUte de Metre, that • dreadful hurricane has done great damage on the coasts of Galicia. A vessel, on board of which the French Consul in that city had embarked, has totally perished. According to our eorrripondence from Germany to-day, the last letters from Constantinople say, tbat M. Minriacky, the Russian Chargé d'Affaires, has had great trouble to calm the agitation of the Reis Etrendi and the Members of the Divan, when they learnt by despatches from the Hospodar at Jury, that the Emperor Alexander was going to visit all the coasts of the Black Sra, and afterwards to review the Russian Army of the South, as well as the divisioe in Bessarabia, under General Sabaniett. ',From the j011 , X41 des Debate of Tuesday.] (PRIVATE CO RRRRR ONDENCI.) MADRID, Ovr. 27. The Ministers went to the Escurial yesterday morning, to hold their first Council under the Presidency of the Duke de Flnfantatio, and returned this evening with him. To-day it is reported that the nature of this sudden meeting was an affair of the highest import ance, and which, if it is true, is of a nature oot only to change the face of the relations of the Peninsula with France, but also to pro duce an essential alteration in those of the first rank amongst them. selves. It is asserted then, that the Duke de l'lnfantado convened his colleagues, In °tiler to propose that France should bevequhed to withdraw her troops, and that the Apostolic party, from whom this proposition proceeded, foreseeing that the impossibility of pay. fog France what is due to her would be objected to their project, have previously framed a plan of raising Ow amount required upon their revenues. However this ma 7 be, the Intramontane party are firmly resolved to get rid of the trench troops; and, for that purpose, they will borrow, on their revenue of 120 millions of francs, such rums as may be necessary, should the question be reduced to one purely of cash. Alarm is general among all persons belonging to the moderate party. General Crux and the Count d'Espagne, Reehaeo, the Su perintendent of Police, several Ilembers of the Consultative Junta, and, in general. all the individuals who supported If.

The latest accounts front Presburg state, that the rheumatic fever with which his Majesty has been attacked has considerably abated, and all the symptoms give reason to expect his Majesty's speedy recovery. His Majesty had slept well the last two nights. We have received papers from Buenos Ayres to the 7th of September inclusive. They reached us at so late an hour last night, and our columns are already so full, that we cannot give any extracts to-day. On the I , 6th of August the House of Representatives of the Banda Oriental assembled at Plorida, issued a declaration of independence, in which they expresriy renounce all obedience to the King l of Poarucat., the Emperor of BRAZIL, or any other person or State in the world. The declaration is signed by all the Deputies. By another legislative act, the Provincia Oriental, is declared to belong, by the most sacred ties, to the united provinces of the Rio de la Plata: Deputies were immediately to be sent to the national Congress. The Patriots had been successful in every encounter with the Brazilian troops : and there seemed to be no doubt at Buenos Ayres that they would be fully competent to maintain their independence. ‘Vliat effect the union of the Banda Oriental with the States of La Plata may have on the Brazilian Government it remains for time to de velope. We hope, however, that Don PL.Dge has been persuatled to relinquish his pretensions, which are not better founded with respect to Monte Video than they were with respect to Chuquisaca. The Congress of Buenos Ayres has authorized the national government to send Deputies to the Assembly of States at Panama. The treaty with Great Britain was ratified on the 30th of August. Yesterday we received Calcutta Papers to the 12th of June. They contain despatches from Brigadier-General MACDEAN and Commodore Hay ES, giving an account of the operations by land and water, which terminated in the occupation of the island and town of Ramree, in the Arra can river. It appears that the enemy had evacuated the island, after having, with great judgment, constructed de fences, in contemplation of being attacked. Quiet posses sion was taken of the island, in the name of the British. Commodore IlavEs speaks highly of the value and im portance of this capture, as well as of the town and fort of Sandowey, which were subsequently taken possession of by the same forces, without any opposition from the enemy. - - - - - Atioverture for peace, it will be seen, had been made by two Chiefs enjoying the confidence of the King of Avg. Some English gentlemen were also on their way from Urn tnerapoora, with proposals direct from the golden-footed Monarch. We may therefore expect that the war would be concluded at once by the submission of the enemy. The Times of yesterday has a very curious article on the subject of Mr. Iltsitssos's late visit to Paris, which, although evidently manufactured in Printing House square, it lays very gravely before the public, as if it had actually arrived in an envelope from head-quarters, and from a Correspondent too, who, judging from the minute ness of his detail, must have had the power of placing himself at any tin)* invisibly, either at the elbow of Citaituts X, or in the pocket of M. De Viurtr. " A Paris Correspondera," says the nmes, " with whose means of knowledge toe are saiiefed, and on whose veraeily we can rely, has informed us of the total failure of all attempts, at present, to form a commercial treaty with France. The main object of Mr. Huskiunn's missiun has therefore been as completely from. trated as if be had asked for the cession of Bordeaux, Brest, or Marseilles." Indeed ! On what authority, we will ask, Las it ever been affirmed, that Mr. Husaissow went to Paris on any such mission ? Au affair of such vital importance to the manufacturing interests of both kingdoms, as the establish ment of a commercial treaty, is not likely, we should think, to be undertaken by an English Minister, without the matter having been at all officially adverted to, either in Parliament or out of it, and without our merchants being at all previously consulted as to arrangements, in the policy of which they have so deep an interest, and in the result of which their all may be at stake. Such solemn conventions are not usually entered into with so little preface, and with such careless preparation. No man is better qualified than Mr. II sa MON to adjust an international compact in matters of trade, on terms mutually beneficial to both kingdoms, but he is the last man to undertake such a missiosi:without having well weighed, beforehand, the chance of being foiled in the objects of it. He is the last am to propose such stipulations as would be no more likely to be acceded to than if he had " asked for the cession of Brest or Marseilles." He was too well acquainted with the parties he had to deal with, to expose either himself or his mission to any such rejection. No on• knows better than Mr. Huss:22ox, that the stability of any commercial treaty must depend on the benefits to be derived from it by each party; and he would not, therefore, propose such terms as would expose him to return on a sleeveless errand. We have next a detail of the advantages under which Husstssot: entered on his mission : "lie was known to bo our Trade Minister, and a great authority 00 all questions of trade; and haring made a long stay in France at gi former but less distinguished period of his life, he was well acquainted with the French character, and could the more easily address himself to French prejudices. Mr. Iltramslos availed himself of all theme advantages—and, ashia miss was intended, in the first instance, rather to sound the Court the Ministry li b than to make any distinct propositions, he was led to ascer tain their bias, without alarming their interests or their jealousy." Why, how is this? Mr. Hesstssow was just before charged by this Paris correspontlenwf the Times, with whose means of knowledge they are Angled, and on whose veracity they can rely, with having " totally failed in all his attempts to form a COMMERCIAL TREATY WITH Fan NC 6," and the British public are now to learn, from the same veracious authority, that Mr.llttsK tSSON " went rather to sound the Coital. and Me MINISTRY Hula to make any distinct propositions !" On what authority is Mr. Beasts sox so held up to his country and to Europe as making himself the instrument of so disingenuous and degrading a purpose? How is it that he is to be first represented as hav ing been intrusted by the British Uoveniment to negotiate a commercial treaty with France, in which he totally . jailed, while, in the sante instant, be is stated to have gone there without intending to make say distinct propositions, but artfully to sound the French Ministry—to avail himself of his previous knowledge of the French character, to address himself to French prejudiecs—and " to as - certain their bias without alarming . their interests .4- their , jealousy !" Is this an errand for a British statesman ? Is it thus an upright and honourable British Whister is to be made by a public journalist to play the counterfeit, and to present himself to the French Government as authorised to negotiate a commer. cial treaty, with no other view than secretly to get at the policy by which their Councils were guided, and to profit by whatever intelligence their unguarded confidence might enable him to turn to account? To give this pretended private information some stamp of authenticity, the writer affects to enter into detail : he is as minute in his relation as if he had been all the time at Mr. HussISSON'S elbow ; in fact, every thing that passes, whether with his MOST CHRISTIAN MAJESTY, or his first Minister, is all within the sight and hearing of this Times Reporter : "From the KING he met with the most kind reception, and the most attentive hearing, but swilling more. Fur every matter of business his slstEsor r continually referred him to M. DE V/L. LELE, in whom he appeared to place implicit reliance, and who appeared to enjoy his entire nonti&nce. Ilia expressions of MAI , gation to the British people for their services to himself and his family never terminated in any suggestion for a more beneficial and lees restricted commercial intercourse. fil. DE VILLELE, on the other hand, though apparently cordial in the expression of his feelings on all questions of I.ttropean politics. put himself in on attitude of defence whenever the commercial relations of the two countries came on the carpet, and acted with as much caution as if he had been playing a losing genie with a skilful antagonist. Be spoke of the prejudices of his countryinen—of the difficulty ef ad justing the different interests of the classes of manufacturers and agriculturists to a new - system—and of the opposition he might meet with in the Chamber at a time wheu lie hall so wady other affairs of importance to manage. In short, the end of their con ferences generally amounted to this--that nothing at present mold be done.' Now there is nothing in all this that,might not be de scribed as passing in Paris, without the writer's being out of the sound of St. Paul's clock. It requires no very long line of sagacity to fathom the sentiments of the French Government, were any negotiation to be actually set on foot for a COMMERCIAL Treaty. They would grant no privi leges to (heat Britain, in the affair of buying and telling, on any thing like liberal terms of reciprocity. They have no notion of any such union of interests, nor would they make the slightest sacrifice to consolidte them. Whatever they did would be done in the jealous spirit of mercantile monopoly ; by this spirit would M. DE VILLELE be go verned, and the KING would be governed by M. De ViL cm. England at no alight cost reinstated the BocanoNs, and for this service the French Ministers would profess themselves most grateful, but they would not be disposed to gush their gratitude so far as to encourage British manu factures. All this, and much more, might have been told without the fabrication of any private intelligence, and without traducing to the world either die conduct of Me. llessissox or the character of the British Government. CITY, THURSDAY EVINIXO, Transactions to a considerable extent took place in Con sols. The price declined materially from the commence ment to the close of the Market. At the opening, Consols were 873, buyers, and after fluctuating during the day between the intermediate prices, they closed at I, sellers. Some large sales were pressed towards the conclusion of the day. An attempt was made to revive the Pruth story, and other reports, equally improbable and idle, were set on foot, as is generally the case when prices arc depressed. Ex chequer Bills were Is. to 3s. premium. '1 here still continues great inertness in the Foreign and Share Markets, and this state of things was of course not amended by the decline of Consols. Greek Bonds were 231, and Old Spanish ditto, 163. South American Secu rities are also unaccountably depressed. If they were ever worth holding—nobody doubts their intrinsic value—surely they were never worth so much at any former period since the creation of these Stocks in the English Market, and yet we find Colombian Bonds reported at 72 13 , Mexican Scrip at 9 f f discount, and Guatemala ditto at 51 discount. Brazilian Scrip was 9 13f discount. Russian Bonds were 911 for Money, and for the Account. A few bargains were done in Anglo-Mexican Shares at 2S In, in the Bolivar Shares at IT, and in those of the United Mexican Company at 11 104. The sales of Sugar were limited in extent and languid in price. Coffee also went or heOly, but the quotation re mained firm. A Lisbon packet arrived yesterday, bringing letters from that capital to the 24t4i October, but their contents are wholly unimportant to the public. The Astxtrian Observer, of Octo:yer 29. has the conti nuation of the Journal of the siege of Miss()!alight from the Bth to the 17th of September. Nothing important had taken place. From the accounts of prisoners it appeared that the Turks were in distress for provisions, that great despondency prevailed, and that many Albanians deserted. The latest accounts state that they were preparing to spring a mine under Bastion Bozzari, and intended at the Rattle time to make another general attack, in which 2,000 Turks, speciall7 paid for the purpose, were to take the lead. Such was the information given by a prisoner. The Hague Gazette contains an appeal to the inhabit ants of the Northern provinces of the kingdom of the Ne therlands, to Airtn a fund for the support of the Greeks in their struggle for their independence. The brig Columbian, Captain Geddes, made the pas sage from Lima to Pernambuco in the short space of forty nine (lays. It is worthy of remark, that letters forwarded by this vessel reached Liverpool in 104 days front Lima, via Pernambuco. Lieutenant William Noton, Adjutant of the !twine Battalion, who is stated to have been the only passenger on board the Ogle Castle, landed at St. Ilelena on the 17th of September, for medical adrift.

PARIS, NOV. 7. A journal of this day announces, as worthy of credit, and assures us, that it can state as certain, that ■n armament is in course of preparation in our ports, of the most important description. The destination is said to be the Pacific Ocean • and it is alvo added, that this expedition. the object of which is unknown, will be com manded by Admiral Duperre, who will be invested with unlimited powers. . . e have no hesitation in saying, that no armament is preparing in any of our ports at this moment. So far from this being the case, they are at present laying up in ordinary at Brest, the ships which lately returned front St. Domingo. If there are any prepa rations in our ports they can only be for the ordinary swims, which are relieved about the present time, and if Admiral Duperre hu a command, it is, doubtless, for one of these maritime stations. Field-Marshal the Prince of Hesse-Homburg has been named by the Emperor of Austria, Commander-in. Chief in Illyria. Styria, and the Tyrol, in the place of the Prince of Hohenzollern, ap pointed President of the Aulic Council of War. [From the Coutitutionttel or Monday.l MADAID, OCT. 27. PRIVATE CORRESPONTIENCE. As anon at the dismissal of M. Zea was known at Madrid, the Royal Volunteers went in a crowd to the Cafe of the Banjo Nuevo, which they usually frequent, and called for loyal songs in hon ou r of that event. However, the Commissary of the Police of that Section, apprized of their conduct, repaired to the spot, and en. deavoured to prevent the singing of such songs ; but his authority was despised, and the tumult constantly increasing, made the at tendance of a strong detachment of troops of the line necessary to disperse the crowd. Since, and up to this moment, much agitation has visibly prevailed in Madrid. The following is a literal copy of a letter from the Escurial on the evening of the 29th, and written by one of the Chiefs of the Ultra party. It will give a just idei of what we have to expect:— " This day has been a day of rejoicing for true Royalists, friends to the preservation of our ancient monarchy ; and M. Zea, who under new names, wi s h e d to g i ve us t h e old Government of the Cortes, has disappeared from the political scene. Our triumph, however, was uncertain during the whole of the 24th, for it was wishtd to reinstate M. Zea in the person of one of his creatures ; but at length our efforts, combined those of the diplomatic agent of a Northern Court, triumphed, and the Duke Del Infentado was placed at the head of affairs. " The effects nf this triumph begin already to show themselves. The Canon Rotas and 11:hapisin of honour Mole are recalled, and Chapron will also immediately be recalled, not to preside over the permanent Commitsion, which, unfortunately nn longer exists, but to take the general Commandership of Madrid, which altustion will be left vacant. as General Linen will be sent to the Captain Generalship of Valencia. " The Marquis of Zembrano has shown himself a little tot much of a partisan of reform and innovation to suit us, and we are determined to unite ou r e ff or t s to get hi m supplanted by General Carbajal. " As to the Minister of France, Ballasteros, his devotion to us is well known, and we are fully aware, that if he is diverted some times from the line traced out for him, it is more from weakness than wickedness; but as the new direction, which we hope to give to the finances, demands a firm hand, capable of appreciating with exactness the indispensable sacrifices in money which we shall be requited to make, we think that M. Erin would suit better at the head of the Finances, because he would know how to manage our pence, so that we should not pay too dear for our victory." [Such are literally the contents of the letter 1 have read. You can yourself deduce the consequences.] FRANKPORT. Nov. 2. A new Treaty of Commerce and Navigation has just been signed at London, between England anti the three Hanseatic cities. This Treaty bears date the 29th September; its principal basis is the reciprocity between the contracting parties. The Hanseatic cities, which, for many years, hare carried on a lucrative commerce with the republic of Hayti, had, nevertheless, abstained from sending Consuls there. Now that France has pro claimed the independence of tide country, there no longer exists any impediment to the appointment of resident agents for the pro tection of the Hanseatic commerce. The city of Bremen has no minated a Consul, who will reside at Nit-au-Prince. Hamburgh has done the same for the interests of the merchants of Lubeck. The Governments of the North, who have a maritirhe commerce, have alas followed this example, and severally appointed Consuls at Hayti. [From the Courtier Francais of Monday.] PARIS, Nov. 6. The treaty between Portugal and Brazil is not only an suspi cion* event for these two countries, it is equally so, fur the whole world ; and it is so, consequently, for France, who, having no longer any ground for withholding the recognition of a State ac knowledged by the Mother Country, will find new channels opened for the productions of her soil and of her industry. To England, however, belongs the glory of haring originated and accomplished this great object. France, condemned by her Ministers to play, on every occasion, only a secondary ch aracter , h as not, h owever, b een wholly a stranger to the treaty just concluded; M. de Gestalt, her Envoy, participated in the conferences between Sir Charles Stuart and the Brazilian Ministers. It is afflicting to see France thus overshadowed and anticipated by England; it It some consola tion, however, to reflect, that England has set the exampl e to Parent States of abandoning imaginary rights, which are only a burthen to those who insist upon them. INDIA. CALCUTTA, JUNE 6. The inhabitants of Prome were returning from tlie jungles In vast numbers, and it was expected that a plentiful brzaar would soon be established. The Governor' of the surrounding districts were also coming in to tender their submission to the British arms, and place themselves and their districts under our protec- tion. One of the Chiefs had already brought in nine elephants belonging to the State, and promised to bring in ten more. Another had brought five guns, some jingals, and a few muskets, and ali were profuse in their offers of se-voice. The British troops at Prome were already generally under cover, and it was hoped that that essential comfort would soon be completed. The weather had been bad for the last week, and, to all appearance the monsoon had commenced, and at a much earlier period than usual. A detachment of 800 infantry, a troop of the body guard, and two field-pieces, hid been sent, under•the command of Lieut.-CoL Goodwin. of his Majesty's 41st Regiment, to march on the great road, leading from Prome to Tongito, the frontier town of the kingdom of Pegu to the eastward. They had started a ',micas gang of the Surrawaddy people, who were plundering the country, and it being understood that they had with them a convoy of front six to eight hundred harkerim, chiefly drawn by bullocks, the re maining troops of the Body Guard, and a Regiment of Native In. fanny, under the command of Opt. Sneyd, had been sent in pur suit. The country about Prome abounds in a very fine breed of bul. locks, and it was expected thet a sufficient supply would be pro cured for Inv further land operations of the army. This is all we have obtained in an authentic shape, but we hear that there are letters in town of the 14:h ;Slay, which mention the capture of the whole convoy by Captain Sneyd. MAT 23. RANGOON.—Despatches have been received by the Virginia, from Brigadier-General Sir A. Campbell, dated Turrlp Mien, the 20th April, distant 30 miles from Prome, which place the army was expected to reach on the 24th April. No opposition whatever had been offered to the advance of our troops. The country was found to be generally in a deserted state. The repeated successes of our arms, and the fall of Bundoolah, seem at length to have produced a salutary change in the councils and disposition of the King of Ava. On the 19th a letter was brought to the British Camp by a European soldier, of his lila jrsty•s 38th Regiment, whohsd been taken by the enemy, bearing the Royal seal, and professing to come from two Chiefs enjoying the confidence of the King. The general tenor of the letter is an expression of regret at the existence of hostilities, and of an earnest desire for the restoration of peace between the two countries. The writers otaFcry, " From the creation of the world, the two Governments have lived in peace and amity, and have never before been engaged in war, or had any dtspu te,li ring, as it were, in unison and with Itiendly and commercial intercourse constantly nubsisting between them. In the year IRIS, in conse9uence of the matter arising from the conduct of a certain paltry chief, war commenced, anti has lasted upwardi of twelve months, occasioning much blood. shed and loss of lives to the armies and people of both nations. "These two nations being both great and powerful, it would be highly desirable that a communication should be opened be tween them, that their people may again enjoy the blessings of peace, from which happiness must accrue to their subjects, and the Chiefs, through whose means these desirable objects can be at tained, would be held and considered to be highly enlightened, and to have rendered special service to their respective states. For this purpose we have sent William James, a Britian soldier, and two Clashees. taken• prisoners by us,t with two soldiers of the State, to deliver this letter, and hope that no delay will occur to prevent a speedy reply being given to this communication." The Burmese, who accompanied the bearer of this communica tion, state, that Messrs. Judson, Price, Laird, and four other Eu ropean gentlemen, were actually on their way from Ava, to be given up to Sir A. Campbell and Me. Judson is particularly mentioned as being authorised by the King of Ava to use his beat endtavonnt to bring the war to a termination.--Culeulto Papers, June 12. Despatches, dated the 23th of July, have been received by Government from Captain Franklin, at Fort Chepe wyan. The expedition entertained the hope of reaching Bear Lake before the frost set in. They were all in good health and spirits. There is now no doubt that the ports will open for the admisSion of foreign barley on the I.Sth instant, at the duty of .Ss. per quarter.

ROYAL STANNARY BRITISH MINING ASSOCLITION. ._„,.....__ In pursuance of public advertisement, a very numerous meeting of the Shareholders of this Company was holden yesterday at the Freemasons"Pavern, Great Queen.street, for the purpose of ta. ceiving the Report of the Directors, relative to the present state of the Alines, and to consider the expediency of making a call of 21. on each share. Sir EMANDEL FELIX AnAn was called to the Chair. The CHAI a New having read the requisition, observ e d th at very few rdiservations would be necessary, as the Report which would be submitted to the meeting would furnish the fullest and most sans. factory information that could possibly be given of the actual state of their affairs. The Directors, sensible of the duty that they owed to the shareholders, had taken very great pains to obtain accurate information on all matters likely to affect the interests of the Cam_ patsy ; they had consulted with men of the first experience, both i n London and Cornwall, as to the real and prospective value of the various mines, and as to the best mode of working them I and on this information they had invariably acted with promptitude and spirit. at the same time never for one moment losing sight of the strictest economy in the management of their funds. Tbis .meetin g was convened for the purpose of affirrding to 'the shareholder the fullest view that could be given of their proceedings. The Dir ge , tors felt that it was wnat the shareholders were entitled to demand, bemuse their money was embarked in the concetn, and be (the Chairman) on the part of the Directors, pledged himeelfto answer every question which any s h a reh o ld er m i g h t think ImoPeo to put. Trusting that the good feeling of the meeting would prevent any i r . relevant remarks, he should now call upon the Secretary to read th e Report. The Report, which was of considerable length, set out with stating, that soon after the deposists were paid up on the shahs, the Directors examined various offers of Alines, and finally ag reed for the purchase of some copper, silver lead, and lead mines. in North Devon and Cornwall. One of them, called the Wheal Alit, hints was purchased for 4,7001., of which 3,000/. was paid down, and the remains 1,700/. to be made good in nine months after the date of the contract, in the event of its proving a profitable Mine. The appearknces are said to be highly favourable. Much et. pense will be saved by two fine stone-quarries having been found oa the spot, and another copper-mine has been discovered on the southern boundary, which has been secured to the Company fie twenty-one years without any premium ; a large supply of (me confidently expected. The Wheal Charles, within throe miles 0i the former, wait bought of Messrs. John Williams and Sons, oi . Truro, for five thousand pounds ; this is also favourably report. ed, as, it seems, prior to the purchase by the Director*, upwardsof 30,0001. worth of ore had been raised from it : since it came into the Company's possession, between two and three hundred tone have been obtained, of which one hundred and twelve tone were brought to market, and sold on the 13th ult. for 7021. tin, being on an average of nearly id. per ton. The head C a p ta i n i n t h e l itter says, he would willingly join any person in giving 10,0001. for this mule, were it to be sold. In North Devon, the Directors hare secured the Royal !Holland Capper mines, the Combemartin Silver Lead, the Combemarrin Ironstone, and the Vl'iddeboy Clift Lead mines. The Royal Afolland produces yellow clipper ore, pro. nounced to be worth 261. per ton, and sons grey ore worth Oh has likewise been found. The Combemartin Silver Lead Mines near Ilfracombe, were worked in the reigns of n:lward 1, Edward 111, Henry V, and Queen Elizabeth, when very great quantities of quantities of silver were procured from them ; one ton of lead ore producing 168 ounces of silver ; and two cups made of the silver from these mines, are now in existence, one in possession of the Earl of Bath, and the other (weighing 137 ounces, which was pre. Rented to the City on London) is deposited in the Mansion -house. On the sea shore at Combemartin an iron-stone quarry produces very valuable ore, which finds a ready market at nwansea, and so strongly is the local feeling in regard to these Mines, that several gentlemen residing there have made applications for shares. The Report then, states that an order to prosecute the works of the Company, the Directors have thought it expedient to make a cad of two pounds on each share, which will enable them to go on until the Mines themselves shall return a handsome dividend. The next topic adverted to is that of receipts and payments, and the Directors call the particular attention of the Shareholders to then points : the first was the payment of 2,500/. to the projector. By the first prospectus he had been entitled to one pound on orb subscription of 8000 shares, but as applications rapidly poured in, the Directors suggested the impropriety of requiring so great awn and he consented to waive his claim, and to accept instead a calla eOO shares at par, and 2,5001., which was agreed to. and considered highly advantageous to the Proprietors. The second topic was the purchase of 1170 shares by the Directors for the benefit of the con. cern, which they confess was an error in judgment, as nothing should have induced them to divert the funds from the express objects for which they had been raised ; but in extenuation, if not justification, they urged the prosperous appearance of the Mines, and having a large rum at their disposal, they conceived it could not be more advantageously employed. The lam relates to re. served shares—fifteen hundred had been held for the purpose of distribution in the districts where the mines were situate, in order to secure the local influence of the parties to whom they would be given ; and one hundred shares were reserved for each of the Di rectors and Auditors ; but as it appeared that so large a capital as that named in the first prospectus (500,000 L) would net be re quired, the Directors determined that deposits should not be paid on more shares than would be sufficient to accomplish the ...bons of the undertaking ; and conceiving that a capital of 250,0001. would be adequate, they did not dispose of the reserved sharer. The expenses of the whole establishment in London, up to the pre. sent time, did not exceed 600/. As a proof of the value that the Directors set upon the concern, they stated that they were actually holders of more titan one-seventh of the whole concern, although twenty shares each would qualify them respectively for the office of Directors. The latter part of the Report as to the economy observed, seemed to give much satisfaction; but the subject of the reserved shoes, and the reduction of capital, produced a manifest feeling of dilty tisfaction from many Shareholders. A Shareholder wished to have the first prospectus head. The Secretary was then proceeding to read from a printed pipe, when, Mr. ROBERTSOM said, that was not the prospectus of the " Royal Stannary," but of the " British Mining Association." He wished for the production of that wherein it was stated that there would be 10,000 shares, and a capital of 500,0001. because it easel:inn the faith of that announcement that he had embarked money M she concern. Why was this meeting convened in the Freemasons' Tavern, instead of the City, where men of business were mote at hand ? Why had only two days' notice been given of it, and only in two papers ? For his part, he did not think the Di rectors were justified in making a call :ender such circumstances ea those they were now placed in : they had thrown back upon the shareholders a twofold responsibility, by reducing the capital from what they had originally set forth as 500,0001. to one-half that amount. Mr. Hite explained.—He believed he was comet in saying that Mr. Robertson was not an original shareholder, or he should have known that the British Mining and the Royal Stannary Association were the sante Company, and applications had been made for shares under that impression by very many gentlemen of the first respectability on the Stock Exchange. It was quite clear that they thought it no hubMe ; and he ventured to say, that if any gentleman would take the trouble to inquire of those persons who were most competent to form a correct judgment on the mat. ter, that the Company were in poseession of very valuable miner, which would before long return a handsome profit to the pro prietors. The Secretary then reed the prospectus. A SHAREHOLDER inquired if there was any other prospectir? Mr. thee said that there was another; but the o nly variation , was in the names of a few of the Directors. Mr. Wtexs said, that in order to a right understanding of the subject, it would be well that any Resolution" which hal been agreed to should be read to the meeting. He alluded or. ticularly as to the remuneration to be paid to theprojector. The SECRETARY said he had not the Resolutions, but the sum of 8,0001. or U. on each of the 8,000 shares, had been resolved on. Mr. Wso.xs thought that no shareholder would be dissatisfied with the proposed reduction from 8,0001. to 2.500/. But, instead*/ caning fresh difficulties, he thought that the best mode would be to see how those that existed might be met. The first question that suggested itself to him was--how were the mines to be worked? The next—were they worth working? The third was.—slist amount of capital would be required to give energy to the speculs• tion ? And the fourth—what the number of shares should be In reference to the value of the mines, he begged leave to refer to a letter that he had just received from a gentleman in Corn te which spoke highly of the Wheal Charles Copper Mine. and Tern rented it to be one of very great value; from this confirmation ot one part of the Report, fie was inclined to give the Directors eredd for the faith of the remainder; and, notwithstanding the insinus lions thrown out against it, be did not think the concern wio w such a very deplorable condition. He should therefore move, that the Report now read be adopted, approved of. and !stinted. Mr. Karin ITT said, he could not concur in that Resolution, h°- eallbe the Company was not formed in such a way 311 to justify the Directors in making any call upon the shareholders, or in roil rte any payments, except on their own responsibility. After some further discussion, Mr. Itonntersow moved an amendment to Mr. Wilke" V:* tion, which was in effect--that there was no such Company sr too Royal Stannary and British Alining Association in existence. Before the Resolution was put, Mr. kerintur wished to put two questions to Mr. Bethel, eke Mw agent ; the fir s t was , H ow many shares were now intect.— ~. be distributed ? and the next, what would be the amount of cap! , , Mr. Ilevieem. in reply to the first, said 5,205, and thr eat!! would be 250,0001. which would be sufficient to carry on the ell with effect. with Mr titc LE a v epo t t r l t iou ; mines to be worth the whole sum.
