Out of this sum have been defrayed current expenses at the Threadneedle-street establishment and the Charing-cross branch, Directors' remuneration, and bad and doubtful debts. after passing through a commercial crisis of unparalleled severity, it will be need less to state that the amount of such de , ts has somewhat exceeded the general overage ; but your Directors have been able, out of the profits of the half-year, to write off all losses, and to mate ample provision for doubtful cor tingendes. They have carrie s forward to profit and Iss new account 3,2911. 6s 4 for rebate of discount on bills not matured, and they have a'so written off 724/. 7s. 6d , the expenses incu In procuring the conviction of Lawson and Cock burn for conspiracy and libel.

THE ADDRESS OP SEFER PASHA, PRINWE 0 OIRCASSIA, TO THE BRI2ISH NATION. Thirty years have elapsed, during which the Czar of Russia hag continued to make hostile aggressions on our country. Thrse aggreasions, made in violation of the rights of nations, have cost immense sacrifices toCirca4sia. Nevertheless, she has not bowed her head to the Muscovite yoke, hut has persisted in alway 3 de fending her independence with arms in her hands. There is not a single government so great, so generous, as to have demanded from the Russian authorities by what right they seek to subjugate us. During the late war we sent a deputation to the Crimea, offering our assistance to the allied armies. That deputation was sent back with the answer, that " for the moment our aid was not necessary, and when they wanted it they would call us." The allies concluded peace at Paris without even mentioning Circassia. Yet 30 years of sanguinary battles had well proved to the world that we never were, and never will be, Russian. That we may be enabled in future to defend our country, it is to thee, free and generous England ! that we turn to invoke thy succour. (Signed) SEFER PASHA, Prince of Circa.sil. (Translated from Turkish into French, and duly attested by Abdulrahmsn Effendi.) REPLY FROM THE LONDON PROVISIONAL COIVI MITTEE ON BEHALF OF CIRCASSIAN INDEPEN DE N CE. London, Jan. 12, 1857. We, the undersigned, have received and peruse with the warree-t interest andsympathy the address of your Highness to the British nation, awl gladly undertake to use our best exertions to promote its circulation and abject. We do so under the profound conviction that the unfailing heroism displayed by the Circassian tribes in their uational struggle during the last 30 years against Russian invasion—heroism which ought to excite the liveliest emotion in every . heart capable of appreciating the blessings of f. ee dom and the virtues of patriotism, is not less glorious to themselves, than eminently protective of the independence of Europe. The Caucasus is not only a bulwark of Turkey and Persia, and through them of India, against Muscovite aggression, but its subjection would re move one of the strongest impediments to the full and unrestricted action of Asiatic despotism against European liberty. We gratefully acknowledge to your highness that your nation evinced their sense of the identity of their own interests with those of Great Britain by tendering to the allied army in the Crimea, as stated by your highness, the offer of their valuable aid against the common foe, and we deeply regret the suicidal policy which led alike to the rejection of that offer and chilled the expectant chivalry of Poland. May the time be at hand when the selfish interests of rulers and of castes shall no longer be able to paralyse the mutual interests and fraternal aspirations of nations ordained by a beneficent Creator to be the source of reciprocal strength and happiness to one another. We as deeply regret that the prevalence of a similar suicidal policy should not only have caused the treaty of Paris to be framed without any express provision for the independence of Circassia, but should have since allowed the stipulation of that treoy which formally and in perpetuity interdicts the Black Sea to the flag of war, and thus indirectly protects the Circassian coast, to be violated and set at nought, in order that Russia may continue her barbarous and unjustifiable hostilities against the commerca and freedom of your people, and inci dentally therefore against the commerce of Great Britain and all nations seeking to trade and com municate in peace with your gallant countrymen. Of all the wars thst have ever disgraced hu manity. we regard the war which Russia has for upwards of half a century continued, to wage against Circassia as one of the most iniquitous, because wholly devoid of any just grounds or pretext. It is the mere brutal and undignified onslaught of superior force against a weaker neighbour, of might against right, of a power determined, in defiance of all law and morality, and in gratification of an insatiable lust of aggression and ambition, to obtain possession of a territory which it considers desirable for the round ing off and consolidating its present possessions, and enabling it to advance with greater security to other acqtii-itions. We beg to assure your highness that with these sentiment-, we shall endeavour to induce our countrym-n to take a warmer and more active interest in all that regards the welfare and inde pendence of Circassia, and with a sincere ad nuira-• win for all your own a rduous and unrewittel labours throughout a life devoted to the fur , herauce hf t.:e best interests of your glorious and beloved laud, we have the honour to subscribe ourselves.

The th e cause of the death of Bet s y m arried woman, was r esume d y before Mr. Kipping, the coroner for the inquiry into eist Brooker,rd y a yon nt borough of Maidstone, at the Old English Gentle man Inn, in that borough. There have already been two previous inquiries before the coroner, and the ease, from the circum stances connected with it, and the supposition that was generally entertained that the death of the de ceased was owing to the unskilful treatment of two medical gentlemen who attended her during a pre mature confinement, has created a great deal of interest in the neighbourhood of Maidstone, whet e ' one of the gentlemen iu question has carried on an extensive practice for a great number of years. We have received a full report of the inquest, which it does not appear expedieut to print. At its conclusion, The jury deliberated for some time, and when the court was opened they gave a unanimous ver dict of manslaughter against Mr. Baldwin and Mr. Ayerst, but at the same time expressed their sym pathy with the latter on account of his advanced age. The coroner upon this made out his warrant of commitment of the parties to take their trial at th• ensuing spring assizes for the county of Kent. • ' „ - ; - EXTRAORDINARY MIIRDIWN !Fir - r n t a ( th .f e tSs E iz s e t s:4l 4 4 s:jf- Vie; place accusedA - - - ft n b el o t e r rr t e i• e o t rdinary Sri ,1 for %tiatWil.:lll a married woman named Guilliny, 31; aifl another - married woman n It-ein . emi, 42 ; aed the Per son murdered was the husband of the second women. Guilliny, whO was a farmer-tolerably well off in the world, resided with his wife in the village of Mont-' bran, but they lived very unhappily together is she en t er tained a great hatred o f hi m , an d not . onl cons tantly abused but even beat hi m , an d more than once threatened him with death. Both-before and after her marriage her conduct was scandalously immoral ; and in the latter time she formed an adul terous connection with Esteve, though he lived with the woman Reynaud, who was married. This las named woman knew of his connection with Mrrie. Guilliny, but she did not take any offence at it. On the 15th August last, the mayor of the village was informed that Guilliny 114 d committed suicide by hanging himself in his own barn, and on g to the barn that functionary found the dead body pended by the neck. Bu . having d a medical examinatcn to be made, 't turned one that Guiiiiey must have been dead before he was suspended. This Ica at once to the suspi cion that he had been murdered, and the suspi cion was confirmed by the discovery in his le,use of a sheet, a shirt, and some other gar ments stained with blood. The daughter of the de ceased, named Eleanor, a little girt 12 years of age, then made ties extraordinary statement :—On the previous evening Esteve had called at the house for some loaves in return for other s, which he had a day or two before lent her parents, and her father gave him them. Her mother left the house with the man, and remained in conversation with him some time. At midnight a knock was heard at the door, and her mother, who had thrown herself on a bed without undressing, having opened it, Esteve and the we man Reynaud entered. The time?, went into the kit chen, and remained in deliteration some time; after whicti they went toterds the room in which het father was sleeping, her mother lighting them by means of a lamp, which she carried in a basket. Eleanor having left her bed to see what they were about, was perceived by Esteve, who asked what she was doing there, and without waiting for her answer, made her go before them to her father's room. On e. Tier Lather being asleep, Esteve plilied a cord witua, on it from his pocket with . cue hand, and seized him by the tnroat with'the" 4 - • other To prevent him from making any resisTanee her mother held him by the feet, and the-woman Reynaud seated herself on him. The I.itter also the ew a sheet over his head, and assisted Esteve iu passing the noose round his neck. Esteve then pulled tight at .the noose .until the unfortunate man was dead ; and, as he died, a quantity of blood gushed from his 'mouth and nose. In the midst of this scene of murder, the cbild'smother perceiving that the door wits open locked it in the inside. When the man Was dead, the three murderers removed the sheet and the al tides cf dress which had been on the bed, and all of which were stained wi b. blood ; then they carefully washed the dead bogy, and the two women put on it a clean shirt and a pair of trousers ; then covering the body with the bloodstained sheet they carr ed it to the barn— the wan supporting the upper part, the two women the feet ; and in the bare they suspended it by the neck to a beam. To light them in these operations they made the girl hold the lamp, and when they had finished Esteve told her that they would serve her in the same way if she said a wol dabout what had taken place. When all was done, her mother said, "Nov all is over, good night ! But let us take care never to tell what we have lone !" "Is to telling," remarked the other woman, " there is no danger of thA, f. , r we stiould risk our necks 1" Esteve and the woman Reynaud then ',turned home, and the mother retired to bed with her daughter, and, after again telling her not to talk of the event: , of the ntg lit, went quietly to sleep. The object of this cold blooded murder was, it appeared, not only to free the woman Guilliny and her paramour from the man, but to obtain possession of his house, in order that they and the woman Reynaud might live in it together. The jury declared all three guilty, but said there were extenuating circumstances in favour of the woman Reynaud. The Court sentenced the atter to 20 years' hard labour, and the other two .o death. C.RIMB IN FRANCE, A workman, named Prodhomme, was on Wed nesday tried by the Tribunal of Correctional Police for cutting and wounding his wife, and attempting to commit suicide. In 1842 he married a young workwoman, and as they were both industrious and well-conducted they lived very happily for some years. But five children having been born to them, they found it difficult to provide for all ; and the man, instead of struggling on, took to drink. In the course of a short time he became a confirmed drunkard, and scarcely ever consented to work, so that the whole burden of supporting the children was thrown on the poor woman. This led to frequent violent quarrels between them, and he often beat her in the most savage manner. At length she separated from him, and for a while he made no objection ; but he then took it into his head to return to her, and as she refused to receive him be beat her. One day in Dec. last, he went to her lodgings, and aft' abusing her most grossly declared that he would murder her. This plunged the poor woman into despair, and she committed suicide by means of the fumes ot charcoal. Some time after he went home drunk, and made preparations for ending his life by similar means, but he was seen by a neighbour and prevented from executing his design. The next day he renewed his attempt, and he had very nearly succeeded in killing himself, but was restored to consciousness. The tribunal condemned him to six months' imprisonment. Two sisters, named Fleurette and Rose Levy, were on Wednesday tried by the Court of Assizes for robbery. The former was in the service of a jeweller named Leon, the latter in that of a couple named Wolff, parents of that person's wife. On 6th July last Rose went to Mule. Leon and begged her on some pretext to give her one of Fleurerte's gowns, Fleurette being then temporarily absent from Paris. Mme. Leon declined, but the other assured her that her sister had directed her to take it, to mend with it a gown of hers, the ap plicant's, and that therefore she was anxious to have it. Mine. Leon still refused, to the evident annoyance of the girl, and when at last Bose went away she conceived suspicions that there must be some mystery in the matter, and proceeded to exa mine the pockets of the gown. She found in the p ;ckets twelve rings, which her husband recognised a- , having been take n horn his sl,op. Ou this the boxes ot the two girls were searched, and several gold rir gs, some chains in gold and silver, 13 brace lets, several shawls, and various articles ot wearing apparel, all toe property of the Leone or Wolfs, were found, as was als i a sum of 732 francs, for the possession of which they could not account. The girls were threatened with arrest, but with tears they implored forgiveness, and pardon waspromised thr-m on condition that they restored all the booty, and made compensation. They gave a written undertaking to that effect, and all the parties being Jews it was in Hebrew. But some weeks after they alleged that their masters had falsely accused them of robbery in order to extort money from them, and had themselves put the thine alleged to have.been stolen into their boxes. This accusation being fals., their masters were so exasperated that they had them arrested for robbery. The evi dence not only clearly proved that they had stolen property from the Wolfs and the Leons, tut that they had robbed other persons with whom they had and previously the court lived. n T t h e e n ejeuq_dirtnyi Fleuretteat r t d h e ei c e declared a od r u e ur s e d Tttehoomef sixmp a :e g :y u we i l ae t n y ek , , locks i hard labour and Rose to tw icee o ad woepryears'ee open imprisonment. committed mbym i means teeadni ano thef a t h i e m police o i l n i ce houses learned in the that a g a b li ee Ur n gl f a o r r thanuThey accordingly caused a watch to be not dolfa r T ydg fewer oeocrhsishealv.i set, and yesterday a man was arrested in the act of robbing a room on th e si x th si °rep of the house, 61, Rue de Saintonge, which was occupied by the daughter of a hairdresser residing in the house. His name was ascertained to be Klein, a journey i man shoemaker, residing in the village of Bicetre. In his lodgings were seized a vast quantity of wearing apparel, plate, linen, etc., and not fewer than 50 pawnbrokers' tickets for similar objects pledged. A peasant of Gy (Haute Saone) went three morn ings ago into a roadside public house, kept by, a widow named Billottet, near the village of Choye, and. not seeing any one pene rated to an inner room—there, to his horror, he found the widow lying dead in a pool of blood with her head and face frightfully mutilated, and iu another room he found her son, a lad aged 16, also lying dead with his skull beaten in and his throat cut. The peasant summoned the authorities, and they found that the drawers and closets had been ran sacked, so that it was evident that the murder had been committed for the sake of the robbery. As two weights stained with blood were found in the house, it is considered certain that it was with them the murders were perpetrated. The authorities are making active search after the murderer. ~ t rSeveralasu carriages con structed by the Strasburg Company for the use of the Emperor Napoleon recently arrived at Ludwrgsbofen, in order to try whether they can pass through tee different tunnels on the Bavarian railway, which they did la perfect safety.

The United States' mail steamer Arago, Captain Lines, arrived off Cowes this afternoon, en route to Havre, from New York, which port she left on the Bth, being three days later than the date of advices by the Persia. Up to he time of the Arago's leaving New York the weather continued mild and fine, and she has had a moderate passage across t Atlantic. " She has brought the wmal mails, 65 passengers, 460,000 dots. in specie, 150 tierces of pork, and 2,515 bushels of rice, ctc. The Atlantic steamer, from Liverpool, arrived at New York on the afternoon of the 6th. In Congress, on the 6th, the proceedings were iu some respects very interesting. In the Senate, Mr. Crittenden urged the necessity of increasing the duties on imports, and the substitution home instead of foreign valuations upon imported mer chandise. An amendment was offered to tax all hank notes, discriminating against those of small denominations, as to force them out of circulation. The subject was finally laid on the table. A p-ti tion was presented Raking that the Postmaster- General be authorised to cont - at for carrying the mails between Panama and Valparaiso. In execu tive session the nomination of Mr. Ssdg wick as District Attorney, in place of John M'Keon, was discussed fez ircral hours, and again laid aside. In the flou , e, resolutions calling fir information upon the stale of our relations with Paraguay and New Gianada, and relative to the opening of .the- River Amazon, and also for all correspondence on the subject of our differences with Spain, were offered by the Commit tee ou Foreign Affairs and adopted. In committee o; the whole House the neutrall y laws, Comm ado: e Paul din g 's conduct in seizing the Filibusters, and General Walker's posi tion, were freely discussed, Messrs. Sickles and Raskin.' taking a very decided stand against private Filbusteti m. On the 7th the President sent to Congress his message in response to the call for information re lative to Central American affairs and the arrest of Walker and his men by Commodore Paulding. He says the Commodore committed a great error in making, the arrest, but thinks he was actuated by patriotic motives and a desire to promote the interests and vindicate the honour of his country. No injury was sustained by Nicaragua, but she was rather benefited by the act, and she alone would have the right to .complain, though it was quite certain she would never exercise that right. A long and warm debate followed the reading of the mes sage, in which Messrs. Seward, Doolittle, and Pearce sustained the President's views , and Messrs. Davis, Crittenden, Brown, Pugh, Toombs, and Douglas opposed them. The message was finally referred to the Committee on Foreign Relations. In the Senate, previous to the reception of the mei sage, Mr. Seward presented a petition, which was tabled, from citizens of Canandaigua, praying for the adoption of some mode of extinguishing slavery by compensating slaveowners to the full value of their slaves. The President was requested to fur nish correspondence from our Ministers at London and Paris relative to th dangers to emigrants ft om contracting with irresponsible patties for inland passage. The President was also called upon for the official correspondence of Messrs. M‘Lane and Parker, late Commissioners in China. In the House, the select committee to inquire into the circumstances attending the sale of the Fort Snell ing reservation, was appointed. The rest of the session was coesumed in committee of the whole House on the President's Merpage, in debating the proposed repeal of the neutrality laws, the Kansas question, tko. The New York Herald of the 91,h has the follow ing paragraph on Nicaraguan affairs : " Another interesting chapter en the Filibuster ques tion may be found in to-day's paper. It comprises a letter from General Henningsen, some account of Walker's men at Norfolk, and the conduct of Captain Chatatd, of the Saratoga, together with the proceedings of Filibuster sympathy and indignation meetings atNew 'Or , ,atis and Mobile. The meeting at New Orleans was rather a tame affair in p iint of numbers and enthusiasm ; but the resolutions adopted are brimful of denunciation f the course of C malodors Paulding and the Munn • tration. The Mobile gathering is described as an 'ieumen,e assemblage,' an imposing and earnest de monstration of the popular feeling of the South in condemnation of the late action of out naval force in Nicaragua,' &a. The resolutions of the New Orleans meeting were endorsed with a declaration that, in the event of the failure of the Government to restore Walker and his companions to Punta Arenas, they (the meeting) will withdraw from the support of the Administration ; and, moreover, that they regard any man as unworthy of support for office who hesitates to condemn the Government for such failure." The New York Weekly Express of the Bth says t " 'General' Walker is out with a long letter to the President of the United States. Commander Davis, he says, has gone unrebuked—but he hopes Commodore Paulding will not thus go. He wants • justice,' which we fear would come in the shape of hemp. He never has been engaged in any unlawful expedition against Nicaragua ! His voyage to Greytown was legal; clear ance legal, &c. !—Paulding's act was in violation of the sacred charter of the United S'ates. But whatever the President does he means to follow the path before him, &o. - The letter is full of this sort of rhetoric and bra vado. If the President of the United States does not his whole duty, as he has began it, we trust that some British fleet will, and take Walker and his companions to England for trial as pirates and outlaws, well so called by Commodore Paulding." The Herald says " The Cabinet held a meeting on Tuesday. It is understood that Commodore Paulding will be sustained in his action against the Filibusters. General Walker has written a letter to the President, in which he de clares his determination to proceed again to Nicaragua, and the President has caused peremptory orders to be issued to the federal officers at the South to stop all Filibustering expeditions if possible. General Walker's men have been dl• charged from Ihe Saratoga, and turned adrift to wander about homeless and penniless." On the subject of Kansas the New York Tribune says : "The report of a collision between Gen. Lane and the Dragoons turns out, as we expected, tn be without foun dation. It will be seen from the letters of our corrempon (lent that L toe a- retur..ed to Lawrence after i-ffec.ing the iiherivion of the Free State men who were held prisoners in Fart "Our correspondent estimates that at the election of the 21st December, with aid from Missouri, about 3 000 votes were polled, seven-eighths of them for the Consti tution, with slavery. The votes were principally cast at polling places convenient to Missouri. "Though the Lawrence Convention had determined to take no part in the election of State officers on the 4th, a bolting convention bad got up a ticket, and there was also said to be still another in circulation on which S eaten was a candidate for Governor. There was little prospect, however, that anything like a majority of the people would take any part in the election." Accounts from the Utah military expedition are to the 26 November. At that time the entire force, including Colonel Cook's command, had reached Fort Bridger. The Mormons had burnt all the grass, and the animals of the expedition were dying at the rate of 100 a-day. Fort Bridger is at the entrance of the passes to Salt Lake City, and it was reported that the Mormons were fortifying these passes against the advance of the Government troops. The report of the battle of the Mormons with Colonel Cook's command was entirely devoid of truth. Dal aches had been received at Washington front Commander Armstrong, of the United States' squadron in the Chinese seas. The expeditite to Formosa had established the fact that there were no American or European captives on the island. The New York stock - marke t was rather irregular on the Bth inst. With con siderable activity prices were unsettled, and there a pp eared to be no patti cular movement in any of the leading railroad seen . rities. The second board was quite active, but the market was a little weak for some railroad stocks.
