The resolution agreed to yesterday in regard to the Princess Mary's annuity was reported.

We rejoice to see that a representation has been addressed to the Committee of the Stock Exchange on this subject, for not even the stability of well-established firma can be proof against such operations, if conducted on a scale of such magnitude. It is for those who are familiar with stock-jobbing transactions to dis cuss the expediency of making any contract for the sale of shares void at law where their numbers have not been specified in writing, It is our duty to point out that, unless some remedy be adopted, the Lon don Stock-Exchange will soon acquire a shameful notoriety in Europe. POST.--If a nation does not sometimes attempt to explain its conduct, and the circumstances guiding to it, there is risk that it will be misjudged by pos terity, while it undoubtedly 'permits a baseless irritation against it to become permanent with some colour of justification. The bearing of this country during the American civil war is open to be mis interpreted in numerous ways. Our Ministers spoke their minds out freely on the subject—perhaps too freely. The press and the country were equally unrestrained in their expressions; one portion sym pathised with the North, another with the South ; but an all but general feeling existed that the Union had received a mortal blow, and not only was that the opinion in England, but the wisest heads of the Continent of Europe held the same view. We can justly say of ourselves that this opinion was formed from no spirit of opposition to the Americans or their institutions. On the con trary, we looked upon the strife, and forecast what we supposed to be its certain issue, with grief. To us the war was a personal calamity. It appeared to be one of those tremendous convulsions which come once in an age to herald a new order of things. For years the cause of disunion had been distinctly traced. We beheld the South rising as one man, inspired not only with patriotism, but with the utmost vindictiveness, towards their former - brethren. Such a vindictive hatred appeared in itself to be a frontier line of division between the opponentS. That we did not estimate correctly either the resources or the tenacity of the great Western people and their noble representative, Abraham Lincoln—the representative of their energy, their• simple firmness, their downright courage —.is now very p l a i n to us all. We were mistaken. We have learnt what the Americans knew be fore, but of which we were previously igno rant—that we were both unacquainted with the cha racter of the American institutions and the Americans themselves. That is our offence plainly stated. It is one of which the rest of the civilised world is as guilty as ourselves. As regards the Union, we pre fer to see it intact. Akin though we are to the Americans in blood an.l in language, it is natural that we should not entertain any of that profound sentiment for the Union which animated them worthil y during their tremendous struggle. Historical precedent led us to presuppose that it must fall to pieces ; and probably the shrewdest divination was y wh t o ho in se ves G t e ed rm t a h n ei s r o sa f vi s n m g a s ll in m A ea m n e s ri a ca n u d on doubtingly ; for these Germans trusted to their securities leax ecsfedaith a b t a time when " oTeenbacks" were looked i u n p s o t n i n c a t t , and that instinct period. was T h the only very y fact thingthat to reasonrel y was then so poor a counsellor should • teach the Americans to be charitable in their judgment of the feelings and intentions of those who misap prehended the issue of their difficulties. We appeal to Mr. Bancroft to reconsider his charge against us. He may discover a confirmation of it in the utterances of Ministers and humbler men in England, and it will not the more be true. We demand to be judged by the spirit of our acts. Mr. Bancroft pleads his case too much in the manner of a lawyer ; he supports himself on the letter of his text; he does not take into con sideration the astounding and unexampled nature of the convulsion, with its varying results, which f we were called upon to w it nes s during a space of years. For four years the Confederates were not only active belligerents, but ordinarily suc cessful.armies. Nothing better than the words of T ac it us -They had famous generals and great can describe that war. There had never been any thing like it upon the earth before :—" Diversa omnium, qua unquam accidere, civilium armo rum facies. Non prmlio, non adversis castris, sed iisdem e cubilibus, quos simul vescentes dies, simul quietos nox habuerat, discedunt in partes, ingerunt tela ; clamor, vulnera, sanguis palam." Such a picture, on a vastly multiplied scale, was pre sented by this mighty war, and we can only not say, in addition, what was applicable to the disordered camp of Germanicus—causa in occulto. The cause was evident. North Americans, however, who tell us now that they fought for slavery, and received evey discouragement from us in their struggle, must not forget that Union was the foremost word on their banner. Slavery was the origin of the war ; but when we ask whether it was -for slavery or Union that the war was so doggedly prosecuted, we fancy that an honest answer would not accord to it that purely ideal dignity of character and benevolence of de sign in which Americans are beginning to regard it. T adbo h l ea,t justiceathn e d r e a st o w tt a ( lee inmuchswaerlvae themselves andaf-ns a c e dchri,uflmcaeanndiotny theytheirsin beeo p gn aL e t 8 too feel their strength, their sentiments grew clearer. As soon as they felt certain of the Union they de termined to eradicate slavery ; but in the period of doubt, during the heat of the conflict, they did not produce the impression on any foreign nation that the eradication of slavery was their principal object. It is to this fact that we wish to draw their attention, that they may be just. The hereditary animosity towards the mother country which Americans supposed to exist among themselves has really no existence. The idea of it sprang from a conscious ness of strength and a spirit of rivalry, and perhaps some recollection of old wrongs. But that recol lection at any rate should be put aside now that they have had experience of the trials of government; nor can the rivalry endure after the display of their strength, which created admiration and amazement as a thing unexampled in the world's history. TILE " ANGLO-AMERICAN TDIES."—We no ticed last week in our editorial columns the ex traordinary number of Americans whose arrival we recorded at the various English ports. The names of these travellers took up a consider able part of our space, while the registers of the different hotels showed how large the number was already in this country. We rejoice to welcome 'Americans to the shores of England, for nothing tends more to the removal of prejudice than travel, and to cement friendship than personal in tercourse. If as many English travellers landed in America, we would not despair of soon seeing the day when these two great nations would more justly could l d an nt d oot appreciate each other, wh en m i sconceptions and en hteitehgseom:-o o jealousies- would ceas e t o h ave so pernicious an in uflijuoeu c d e , e x a i n aT d thb w ee h tf e wa n ec facilities therespectea B easily o b p e l whi ch people o dis turbed.fthis kingdom by railroads andsteamboats of visit ing continental Europe have materially affected the English character.

Lord RUSSELL called upon the house to adopt the re solution to concur with the House of Commons in au ad dress to the Crown for the appointment of special Cum_ missions, because, he said, although they were not bound by the decisions of the other house, yet having before them no measure for the punishment of bribery, it would be unreasonable to withhold their assent to the institution of proper inquiries. Lord BROUGHAM doubted the efficacy of a Commis sion for the ►prevention of bribery, and thought that the House of Commons had to a great extent the remedy in their own hands. Upon a division, the resolution for the appointment of a Commission to inquire into the proceedings at the late election of Lancaster was agreed to by a majority of 77 to 17. Similar resolutions were also agreed to in respect of Great Yarmouth, Reigate, and Totness elections. Upon the motion for going into committee upon the Exchequer and Audit Departments Bill, Lord BELPER moved the reference of the bill to a select committee, expressing his own doubt whether the vesting of the powers and functions of the Audit Board in a single individual would be an advantage to the public. Lord GRANVILLE defended the bill upon the ground that it had undergone the examination of the most expe rienced authorities in the House of Commons, and it would, therefore, be desirable that any criticisms passed upon it in that house should be made at its corporate sit tings, rather than in a select committee. After a fow words from Lord NORTHBROOK, the amend ment was negatived, and the bill passed through com mittee. After the disposal of some other business, their lord. ships adjourned at eight o'clock. HOUSE OF CO MOMS—LAST EVENING. The SPEAKER took the chair at 4 o'clock. PRIVATE BUSINESS. The following bills were read a third time and passed : —Aberdare and Central Wales Junction Railway, Alder shot Gas and Water, Briiish and Canadian Telegraph Company, Downs Docks, Greenock and Shaws Water, Manchester, Sheffield, and Lincolnshire Railway (Central Station and Lines), and Vale of Crickhowell Railway. LEICESTER SQUARE. Mr. WALDEGRAVE-LESLIE asked the hon. morn ber for Bath, whether the Metropolitan Board of Works had any intention of causing the inclosuro in Leicester square to be turned into a garden or ornamental ground, under the provisions of the Gardens in Towns Protection Act (1863); and, if so, how soon tho'garden would be pro ceeded with ? , Mr. TITE said the Act of 1863 passed to deal with neglected open spaces had been found very defective, and much difficulty had been experienced. The board had taken steps to deal with Leicester-square, but the owner of the ground had served them with notice of trespass, but some paints of law were raised which still remain for argument, and as the case could not come on for argument b3foro November, and until that matter had been disposed of, he could not say what would be done. If the decision went against them ho should apply to Parliament to amend and simplify the law. L ADIES MORE BEAUTIFUL THAN ER.—Dr. CULVERWELL'S LADIES' 21.11Z KIST; BATHS, Tuesdays.

The adjourned debate upon the motion made on the 29th ult., to agree with the Commons in the address to her Majesty to fill up the blank with the "Lords Spiritual and Temporal," to which an amendment was moved by Earl Grey, that instead of any particular inquiry, there should be a general commission to investigate the whole subject of corrupt practices at elections, was resumed.

Ldrd GREY repeated his arguments in favour of the appointment of a Commission to assist Parliament in taking steps to repress bribery, and contended that all former inquiries into particular cases had been productive of evil rather than good. He pointed out that a Commis sion such as he proposed could take cognizance of expen diture at elections, which although not exactly of a cor- _ TURRET SHIPS.

Mr. BRUCE informed the house that the disease ob servable amongst the cattle in the Isle of Man was not rinderpest, but one of a local description. THE BELGIAN PRESS. Mr. DISRAELI said before going into committee ho bogged to make a few remarks upon some observations that had fallen from him in referring to the conduct of our plenipotentiary at the Conference. On that occasion he had remarked that our plenipotentiary had entered into a conspiracy to barter away the freedom of the press in Bel gium. He contended that the statements were neither un justifiable nor reckless, and that he was fully justified in all that he said by the official documents on the table of the house. Mr. LAYAIID said as he had not anticipated the right hon. gentleman would go into the matter, he was not pre pared to answer his observations as fully as he could. The charges made by the right honourable gentleman op posite against Lord Clarendou were of such a nature that, if true, they would be productive of the greatest injury to the political character of the noble earl, and render him incapable of remaining at the head of the Foreign Office of the country. The right hon. gentle man had said that the noble earl had entered into a con- _ spiracy to abolish the liberty of the press on the continent ; that ho had agreed to an alteration of the boundaries of Turkey, which it took all the talent of Lord Pal merston to settle ; and that he had wilfully neglected the interests of Circassia. He had to state that each of those charges were directly opposite to the facts of the case. With respect to the first of the accusations, Count Walewski, at the Conference, referred to the vio lent denunciations which appeared in the Belgian papers against the Emperor Napoleon, some of which openly advocated his assassination, and the only observation made use of by Earl Clarendon which at all referred to the matter was, that in the course of the dis cussion he said he considered men who preached assassination were undeserving the protection of the press. The second accusation, that he said interfered with the boundaries of Turkey was the opposite to the fact ; and with respect to Circassia, Lord Clarendon had done all in his power in favour of that country instead of neglecting it. The three accusation; therefore, against the Earl of Clarendon had ' each fallen to the ground. (Hear, hear.) On the same motion for going into Committee of Supply, there was the usual Friday evening melange of incongruous subjects. Mr. VERNER called attention to the reports of the In spectors-General of Prisons in Ireland for the last five years with reference to the grave irregularities consequent on the management of certain city prisons by Boards of Superintendence, eliciting a reply from Mr. C. Fortescue. Sir J. S. Maxwell, in an interesting speech, brought under the notice of the house recent returns relating to the office of Lord Lyon King -at-Arms in Scotland, and pressed the Government, besides undertaking the necessary reforms in the Lyon Court, to appoint to the vacant office some man distinguished in historical literature, a suggestion which was supported by Mr. G. Duff, and to which Mr. Childers replied that the subject was under the consideration of the Government. General Dunne complained of the non payment of a sum of £5,000 granted for the building and repairing of fishery piers in Ireland ; and Sir John Pak ington related the circumstances attending the recent wreck of the Great Northern on the coast of Lancashire, to which Mr. M. Gibson replied that inquiry was being made, and if the wreck was found to be due to misconduct of the crew the law would be put in force against them. Mr. BERESFORD-HOPE called attention to a rumour that the Royal Academy has refused a site at Burlington house, and is ready to move to South Kensington, to which Mr. Cowper replied that though he had no official infor mation of it, he had hoard the rumour, and had reason to believe it to be well-founded. A desultory conversation hereupon „followed, turning upon the architectural beau ties of Burlington-house, the advantages of the Kensing ton site, the wants and constitution of the Academy, and the other vexed questions connected with this subject, in which Mr. Powell, Lord J. Manners, LoM Elcho, Mr. Ayrton, Mr. Gregory, Mr. Bentinck, Sir G. Bowyer, Sir W. Jolliffe, and Mr. Hubbard took part, Mr. Layard inti mating that the Government were not altogether satisfied with the decision of the house two years ago on the National Gallery site ; and by Lord Cranborne, who raised the whole question of the expediency of spending public money on art collectiohs, which, when placed in an out-of the-way site like Kensington, could only be luxuries of the rich, and could not be enjoyed by any great number of the people. Mr. D. GRIFFITH put some questions as to the course which the Conference on the Danubian Principalities is taking in reference to the expressed wishes of the Moldo- Wallachian population, prefacing them by a slight sketch of the history of the Principalities and of the arrangements of the Treaty of Paris. He examined at length the motives of the population for desiring a foreign Prince, quoting a passage from a speech of Mr. Gladstone's in this sense, made eight years ago, and recommended a close union with France in this matter. Mr. LAYARD controverted much of Mr. Griffith's his tory, and entered into an elaborate narrative of the diplo matic transactions in relation to the Principalities to show that tho suzerainty of the Porte over them had been recog nized by all the Grett Powers, and that they were bound P E SPIRIT OF THE PUBLIC jOURNALR TIMES.--There are, probably, many shareholders as well as many creditors of Overend, Gurney, and Co. (Limited) who will learn for the first time from the provisional report of Messrs. Turquand and Harding what they ought to have ascertained be fore investing or lending their money. A very cursory perusal of this document is sufficient to show not only that no considerable portion of the paid-up capital will ever be recovered, but that no company ever ought to have purchased the concern at all. The truth is that Messrs. Overend and Gur ney had not a sound business to dispose of on the 31st of July last, and, instead of receiving £500,000 for the goodwill of it, should have been thankful to pay a handsome sum to any company which should take it off their hands. The position of the old Rrm at this time is clearly indicated in the supplementary statement issued by the official liquidators, which is the real key to the subsequent history of the com pany. " The total on the credit side of the account then stood at £15,552,003, and on the debit side at £14,425,678, exclusive of the balance to the credit of the partners in the private ledger, amounting to £1,126,325." There were, however, further liabili ties of various kinds to the extent of nearly £9,000,000 more, which seem to have been excluded from the debit side of the account because they were contin gent on the default of other houses which were pre sumed to be solvent, or because they were otherwise supposed to be covered by adequate securities. It was hoped that ample provision had been made against any losses, arising from bad debts or other causes, by the apparent difference of more than £1,000,000 between liabilities and assets, by the balance in the private ledger already mentioned, and by the value of the separate estates of the partners. Unfortunately, this expectation has proved quite illusory. A deficiency has arisen, " from depreciation in values and from other causes," which is likely to amount to at least £700,000, after all the assets, joint as well as several, shall have been realized. Though it is not very easy to follow this part of Mews. Turquand and Harding's report, wegather from it that whereas the partners of the old firm have already contributed about £650,000 towards a guarantee fund out of their private estates, and will have to contribute £1,250,000 more, yet the demands upon the new company have been such as to absorb the whole of it and to leave a deficit of £700,000. If we now turn to the " approximate statement of the affairs of the company in liquidation," we find assets osten sibly exceed liabilities by about £400,000, and this is the sum which, subject to much certain delay and many probable deductions, the shareholders ought to get back out of their lost £1,500,000. The ex perience of the official liquidators, however, enables them to point out a numb er o f p oss ibl e slips between Ithe cup and the lip which might scarcely have oc curred to the uninitiated. They warn all parties concerned at the outset that "at the present time the most carefully framed estimates may prove fal lacious." This is just one of those paradoxes which Lord Dundreary might be pardoned for saying that " no fellow can understand," but which is really very simple if we only look at it only in detail. For instance, the largest item in the liabilities of the company is "to liability on bills rediscounted £8,266,048," and another large item represents debts to persons holding security. Now, it is obvi ous that in the former case much depends on the ability of other firms to pay the bills in full as they , arrive at maturity, and that, in the latter, the com pany may either realize a surplus or be called on to make good a loss, according as the realized value of the security exceeds or falls short of the creditor's claim. In the present " very excep tional state of commercial affairs," Messrs. Tur quand and Harding decline to pledge themselves to any definite opinion as to the propor tion of bills which may be returned unpaid. They express a belief that the character of those held by creditors as security is, on the whole, good, but they remind the shareholders that interest is payable on them, and must be subtracted from the surplus of £266,000, which might otherwise be expected to accrue from them. They predict, on the other hand, that " a large amount of the bills " redis counted" will be thrown back on the Company, and will, "in the first instance, rank against the estate for the full amount." We have here one secret of commercial failures, and an intelligible answer to the question so often asked of late— " Where does the money go ?" The money goes in loans, at high rates of interest, to contractors and companies who may ultimately be able to repay it, but who cannot repay it at short notice. It is locked up in works that require years for their completion, and, for the purpose of meeting a sudden call, it might just as well be at the bottom of the sea. There is one sentence in the report before us that explains in a few words the reason why firms of the highest credit, but which have tampered with the new system of financing, may collapse at any mo- ment, - without any premonitory symptoms of weak ness. They have assets, and they have liabilities, and they have, let us suppose, carefully preserved a due relation between them, " but in many instances the former can only be realised with time, whereas the latter require prompt payment." Then money has to be borrowed at any sacrifice, credit breaks down, and the inevitable fate of the house that is built on the sand overtakes the concern, not, per haps, because it is intrinsically rotten, but because the pressure upon it is present and the means of resistance prospective. If it be true that a profit of more than £200,000 was fairly earned by the limited Company of "Over en d, G urney, and Co." during the nine months of its existence, we must attribute its failure chiefly to em barrassments of this kind, inherited from the old firm. It would have had a far better chance of success had it started without the goodwill for which it paid £500,000, but with a clear balance-sheet ;as it was it could hardly have weathered the storm of last month, even had the " bears " not conspired to undermine it. The case of the Agra and Masterman's Bank, in which the e _ r families of so manylndian officers had invested their savings, appears to have been very different. its ruin is every reason to believe that, although it may have been precipitated was directly Overend and Gurney, yet that who had speculators brought about by unprincipled sP e ce s.

Now, we do not here deny that it may be legitimate for a man to contract for the sale of what he has not in his own possession, in the hope of turning a profit by the chance of its falling in value before the time comes for its delivery. This may be an honest trade, but it certainly exposes those who engage in it to great temptations.
