In order to give the most immediate effect to the intentions of the Lords of her Majesty's Treasury , the Comptroller-Ge neral requests that the HOLDERS of EXCHEQUER BILLS brought for EXAMINATION shall PRODUCE at the EXCHEQUER BILL PAY-OFFICE, with their BILLS, a DOCKET, on which shall be distinctly stated, 1. The number of each of the Exchequer Bills. 2. The Act under which they have been severally issued. 3. The Da'e. 4. The Denomination, or Value. The Exchequer Bills of each Denomination and Issue, to be arranged according to their progressive Numbers. Each Exchequer Bill to be signed on the back by the Holder, the Docket to be signed by the Holder, with his Address. These Dockets will be compared with the Bills at the Ex chequer Bill Pay-office, Whitehall-yard, and then passed on to the Comptroller-General for examination. The Bills found to correspond with the counterfoils will be sent to be stamped as genuine, and returned to the Holder as soon as this' process is completed; but, in order to lank!' the inconvenience which may arise from the inevitable delay at tending the process of stamping, an Official Receipt, signed by the Comptroller-General of the Exchequer, will be given to the several Holders, specifying the Number and Denomination of the Bills so returned. The instruments purporting to be Bills, which do not coin cide with the counterfoils, will be retained to await the direc tions of the Treasury, but for these also a receipt shall be given. Parties attending shall be called in, and their Bills examined, according to their priority of attendance. • MON TEAGLE, Comptroller -General.

Those two musical prodigies; who seem to have been born in an atmosphere of music, and to breath none other,—the Infant Sappho and the Harpist, have attracted every evening throughout The week crowded assemblies, consisting sometimes of seven or eight hun dred a-night, at the Adelaide . Gallery, notwith standing the unfavourable state of . the weather.. It would be invidious to institute any comparison be-; tween them ; because their modes of excellence are to- .. tally dissimilar, as are 'their peculiar tastes and cha racter. Even in their personal appearance and, pip siognominal expression, there is the greatest possible difference. When that little divinity, Louisa Vin ing (or Sappho) stands in repose, she actually re minds one of Madlle. Mars in some of her most heroic roles—whereas Fanny Gregory seems never to be in repose; but exhibits whether at her instrument or in her disengaged moments, a true "wild Irish girl," lively, ardent, and playful. Nothing but inmate and here ditary enthusiasm for the melody of Erin's .harp could enable so mere a baby to acquire the perfect mas tery of the instrument which she displays: Her per formance passes all eulogy. TIIFi ELECTRO-MAGNETIC CARRIAGE.—This machine was last night exhibited in full action, and Mr. E. M. Clarke, the inventor, gave an explanation of its construc tion and peculiarities. The model that is now exhibited weighs 451b5., and travels on a -circular railroad of fifteen feet diameter, that is .forty-five feet in circum ference, in ten seconds, at the cost of sixpence for three hours. The mechanical arrangements con sist of, three voltaic horse-shoe magnets attached to a metallic disc ; which disc has a spindle or vertical axis by which it revolves horizontally. Outside these three revolving magnets there are three others attached to a metalic ring, but 'fixed. On a connection being made with the voltaic battery, magnetism is induced in them, which causes an alternate attraction and repulsion. The result of this is a continuous rotary motion. This is transferred to the driving wheels by means of two bevil gear wheels.. The . advinitages of this as a prime mover are considerable. Its small expense in the first fitting - up of the engine being less than a steam-engine by one-half, and the con suming expense being less than 1-16th. The saving of room in marine boats, is one of its greatest advantages, the necessity of carrying coal being done away with ; in lieu of which a few hogsheads lined with lead, on Del brook's patent process, for carrying, sulphuric acid, and a few sheets of zinc, is all that is required to keep up the motive power. Mr. Clarke stated that arrangements are in progress far the early application of the power to a vessel upon the Thames.

UMMARY OF NEWS AND Vubitt Optutott. " Who runs may read." FOREIGN. GalignanCi Messinger of Thursday asserts that there is no truth in the statement of the Gazette de France about the French Government having notified to the British Charge d'Affaires that it intended ,to occupy Spain, with a view to put down the Republican movements in Valencia and Barcelona. This.we believe to be cor rect.. Still we may ask, what does France mean by con centrating a force of from 40,000 to 50,000 men along the Spanish frontier .? The Memorial Bordellis has the following :—" The Spanish Cortes are to be convened for the 19th of No vember, the fete day of Isabella 11., in order that the political centralization of the popular juntas, established .at Barcelona and elsewhere, may be checked. A general amnesty will be granted to all the Carlists, without ex ception, on the Queen's fete day. An army of observa tion of 50,000 men is to be assembled between Alcal Burgos, and Vittoria, to keep down the northern pro vinces, and effect at an early . period some modifications of the fueros, which may be in harmony with the Con stitution and the monarchy. The Prince Royal of Naples is now five years old. 'Ac cording to the etiquette of the Neapolitan Court his Royal Highness has received the grade of sergeant in the army, and each year willreceive a fresh step, so that by the age.of 15 he will attain the rank of Marshal. Heaven help the armies that are commanded by such officers. By a Royal ordonnance, dated the 19th instant, the peace establishment of medical men for the French artily is fixed as follows : Physicians of different ranks, .127 ; surgeons, ditto, 1,137 ; Pharmacians, ditto, 113. 'rota], 1,377. The last -returns made by order of the Municipal Council show that there are 53,481 vehicles employed in Paris, viv., 948 hackney and other four-wheel public coaches ; 1,533 .public cabriolets ; 10,000 four-wheel private carriages ; 11,000 private cabriolets ; and 30,000 carts, tumbrils, trucks, and drays. There are also 34,927 ,draught horses, but no more than 1,316 saddle horses. COMMERCIAL REFORM. A public meeting of the inhabitants of Paddington, for the repeal of the Corn laws, will take place on Mon day next, at eight o'clock, at the Paddington Reform Committee-room, Load of Hay, Praed-street. AGRICULTURAL. The Royal AgTicuiTt7raigodiety of England, to meet at Bristol in July, 184 will give their gold medal for the best account or record of the prognostics or natural causes of changes in the weather. Rules will be drawn up, and twelve months' trial on them given. _ _ NAVAL AND raxxxrairm. The M office is being moved from the Tower to the building • lately occupied by the Soldiers' Female Orphan School, near Southampton. The new locality offers many advantages in room and light, which are re quired for the increased scales now used in the Ordnance survey. PXNZ NETS. The competition amongst the artists of France for the monument to be erected' beneath the dome of the Inva lides, to the memory of Napoleon, has produced 82 de signs, drawn or modelled. They have been arranged in the Royal School of the Fine Arts, Paris, and the exhi bition opened on the 27th inst. LITERARY AND SCIENTIFIC. M. D'Abbadie, the African traveller, is the firtt European who has visited the Galla people of Abys sinia, in their native pastures, among whom he is at the present moment. The Galla call themselves Orme, and trace their origin to three sisters, daughters of Jeru salem, to whom they apply traditions similar to those mentioned in the book of Genesis, vi., 4. A fine speci men of their horses is to be seen in the fine charger which M. D'Abbadie's brother lately sent to France, as an offering to the Prince de Joinville. An amusing event has occurred in the French literary world—that of the recent marriage of the celebrated Feuilletonist, M. Jules Janin, who published his own epithalamium, complimentary of himself, his friends, and his bride, the day after " the knot was tied," in the Jour nal des Debuts. LAW AND POLXCZ. An investigation took place at Union Hall into the conduct of policeman 152 M, on the complaint of Mr. Vousden for using abusive language to him and his wife, the result of which was that the Magistrate considered the charge proved, but did not inflict a fine (with the consent of the complainant), as it would lead to the dis missal of the offender. _ _ At Kensington Police-office, George Johnstone, driver of a Brentford omnibus was tined 51. for wilfully damaging the omnibus of James Attfield, and alarming the pas sengers by his furious driving. At the Mansion House yesterday a young woman a servant in a respectable family, was brought before Alderman Pirie, charged with attempting to drown her self, and at Guildhall a man was charged with a similar offence. The Captain of a Harwich vessel was convicted at Thames-street, in two penalties of 31. each, for ill-using two apprentices. C OUILT-PASHIONAIILE. We aro happy to state that her Majesty at present en joys perfect health, the symptoms which so powerfully Manifested themselves on Monday and Tuesday having entirely subsided ; still, every arrangement is made for a sudden emergency. Sir Robert Peel gives a grand dinner this evening, at his residence in Whitehall-gardens. The Duke and Duchess of Buccleuch return to Mon tagu House this day. Sir Stratford Canning, Ambassador to Constantinople, leaves town on Thursday next, for his destination. It is not yet determined whether he goes by way of Marseilles or Trieste. Lord Cowley leaves town for Paris in the course of next week, to enter on the duties of his embassy. MISCELLANEOUS. '.A . young gentleman in the south of Ireland, who on Saturday attained his majority and a largo rental, pre sented his worthy father with a munificent gift of ton thousand pounds sterling. Mrs. Thom, widow of the maniac who called himself Sir W. Courtney, and who was shot in the affray near Canterbury, a few years since, died lately at Guernsey. On this day, in 1485, Henry VII. was crowned, and his Queen Elizabeth on the same day in 1488. The coronation of the latter was remarkable for the proces sion by water from the Palace of Greenwich to the Tower. One of the barges on the occasion, called the " Bachelor's Barge," contained an extraordinary pa geant—an enormous red dragon, which spouted streams of red fire into the Thames. The booksellers' catalogue for the fair of Leipsic this year, includes 3,977 works. Out of which Vienna fur nishes 183. works ; Berlin, 423 ; and Prussia, 1,236. The booksellers themselves are 592 in number, - To-morrow is the anniversary of the death of William Augustus, Duke of Cumberland : he commanded the forces against the rebels in 1745, and gained the battle of Culloden, in 1746. The plantation of firs at Virginia Water, and on Bagshot Heath, - was made under his di rections. WOOLWICH-FRIDAY. ROYAL MARINES. Captain Wright, Lieut.

N.) fusers took place at the mortar battery on Wednesday, and an improvement since last trial appears to have been made in his invention, as the greater part of those fired on this occasion exploded when they fell. Captain Greenwood's company, Bth battalion, now in battery, has been completed to 90 gunners and drivers, the usual number being 77, and, with a full complement of officers and non-commissioned officers, is ordered on particular service. _— A 9 -pound battery, complete with stores and howitzers, is ordered to be fitted out for China immediately, and it is, therefore, • supposed the company above-mentioned proceeds to that country. An excellent spirit pervades the Royal Artillery, and numbers of young men volun ,teered their services as members of the expedition. Second-Captain C. H. Burnaby is ordered to Ipswich on the recruiting service, and relieves Captain Spiller, whose company is on passage home from the Cape of Good Hope. D UNDE E TRADE.—We are7snll witnollt any decided improvement in our general business to report, and we now wait anxiously the next accounts from Ame rica, as on them depend greatly the character of our winter operations. The prospects for the working classes are not encouraging, and the unfavourable result of the corn crops in this quarter must seriously affect their employment and wages during the ensuing winter. Seve ral vessels with flax and tows have arrived here from Archangel during the last eight days, but there are now very few more expected, for some time to come. Flax moves eff in smart quantities at last week's prices. Yarns and linens are without alteration either in demand or prices.--.

" The. inferiority of the qualities of the new English wheat hitherto brought forward, is fast reducing the averages ; the last general return for the kingdom, published on Thursday (645. Bd.), shows a fall, as compared with that for the week preceding, of 6s. 6d. per quarter ; and as the next will probably be lower, a rise to 10s. Bd. in the duty is nearly certain to take place on the 30th inst., and we calculate that by the 14th Oct. the duty will be 20s. Bd. per quarter." Wentworth, Oct. 4, 1841. DEAR Mn. TASTILY/Ml—The paragraph which I have prefixed appears to me to give rise to some very serious considerations. It is taken from the Universal Corsi Reporter of last week, Sept. 27—a paper which has no general politics, and whiehmever hints at a maxim in political economy. It speaks of reducing the ave rages ; but I need not remind you (even if the para graph itself did not relieve . me from that necessity) that reducing the averages, and raising the duty are the same thing. But what I wish particularly to draw your attention to, is the cause of this approaching rise of duty with which we are threatened. It is not the abundance of corn—Tit were, something might be said in favour of the system ; but, on the contrary, it is the inferiority of the new wheat. That such would bo its character, might have been foretold as long ago as the Ist of August, after the experience we had had of the weather in June and July. What might have been foretold then is now matter of fact ; and at the very moment when, in common prudence, we ought to throw open our markets to every bushel of sound corn that can be introduced, we are actually about to impose a prohi bitory duty. That a duty of '2os. Bd. is prohibitory, will not, I apprehend, be denied by anybody ; in the first place, because it is just that amount which the sup porters of protection consider to be protective of British agriculture ; and in the next place (which is much better proof of it), because of the prices which are now ruling in the continental markets. Turning to another part of the paper froniwhich my text is taken, I find, under the head, "Dantzic, Sept. 18," the following paragraph : " The falling off of supplies from the country strengthens the confidence in the trade, and the market, therefore, has been cleared at rather advancing prices, which we quote as follows :-565. for mixed wheat of 601bs ; 51s. for fine mixed ; 525. for common high mixed of 601bs. ; fine old wheats, being held at 575. to 585., find no buyers." Now, the addition of 20s. Bd. would obviously exclude not only the best, but the whole of the corn here men tioned, even without the addition of a single shilling for freight and charges. as the averages are reduced, this corn is manifestly not wanted, and that its exclusion is essential for the prevention of a further fall in price, and consequently, for the protection of British agriculture. According to his views there might be something in this rejoinder, and it might be consistent with the welfare of the people (as far as the Corn-law considers their welfare), if the averages exhibited a fair specimen of the cost of human food. It is obvious, however, that they do no thing of the kind. The averages are reduced, not by the quantity, but by the quality of the wheat brought to market ; for, though the averages, as regulators of the trade and of the duty, are reduced, the price of bread does not fall ; and the farmer himself, who buys bread like his neighbours, is obliged to give 9d. or 10d. for the 41b. loaf, while the highest price he can obtain for his new wheat is 655. a quarter. Referring again to the same paper, I find that new Essex, Kent, and Suffolk, is quoted at 565. to 655. ; Norfolk, Lincoln, and York, at 565. to 63s ; Dantzic and Konigsburg, at 635. to 755.; and even the inferior grain of Mecklenburgh and Pome rania, at 635. to 70s. As it is from the high-priced grain that wholesome human food is manufactured, we need not be surprised at the price of the loaf ; but, as fermets deal in corn, not in bread, they derive no ad vantage, but the contrary, from a high price of bread. Let us now turn to the state of the corn trade. It is of great importance to the agricultural class at this season, because you know very well that most of the half-year's rents of England are due between Michael mas and Martinmas; and that, in order to meet their landlords, the farmers must, and do, effect great sales at this period. In the week ending Sept. 25, the arrival of English wheat in the port of London was under 3,000 quarters; of Scotch and Irish there was none ; while of tbreign there was 87,222 quarters, of which upwards of 37,000 were from Dantzic, upwards of 12,000 from Ko nigsberg, the highest qualities. For the sake of the people, I am very glad that it has arrived ; but when it is considered that above a million and a half of quarters had just been released from bond, it must strike even the most careless observer, that this sudden influx of such large masses must operate in a most mischievous manner upon the trade in British corn. The corn is wanted 'or food, and therefore I rejoice at its arrival ; but if t had fed the market gradually during the last two, three, four, or five months, it would not have pro duced these astounding effects. We should neither have had the average about 60s. now that the farmers have corn and must sell it, nor should we have seen it at 685., 705., 755., and 80s., when they had none to sell. These recent events afford one of the most convincing arguments in favour of the most perfect freedom of trade; and prove to demonstration how mischievous all these regulations and contrivances are, even to those for whose benefit they are kindly, though not very wisely, in tended. Another sentence in the same paper states that in. Mark-lane " there was again a numerous attendance of country buyers, who directed their attention to foreign wheat, and the transactions in this article were rather extensive." P.S.—lllness and other interruptions prevented my closing this letter at the time I intended, and I have not now time to pursue the last subject of inquiry. Ido not, however, much regret the postponement, as subse quent events have proved the accuracy of the calculations of the paper from which I have quoted, and what full reliance may be placed upon the information which it conveys. It anticipations have become facts. The last six weeks average is 665. ld., and the duty, consequently, 20s. Bd.; but still the price of the loaf is 9d. or 10d. Believe me your's most faithfully, Oct. 19, 1841. FITZWILLIAM. To M. Tasburgh, Esq. CHURCH-RATES.-BRIGHTON. DEFEAT OF TIIE PARSONS. FINAL CLOSE OF THE POLL-YESTERDAY. Votes.

DUBLIN, OCT. 28.—A rumour had been for some time in circulation that it was the intention of the old Corporation to cap the climax of their iniquity by retaining possession of the Mansion-house, in defiance of law and the will of the citizens of Dublin, and that the " No Sarrender " principle would be re-enacted at the Mayoralty House, by its present possessor. In consequence of this report, a deputation of the new Tow n Councillors waited yesterday upon Sir Kingston Eames, to as certain his intentions. His reply was perfectly satisfactory hay ing declared that he considered himselffunctus officio, and would take charge of the corporate property only till his successor was appointed. The result of the elections give a majority of 47 to the Liberal. The Liberal party have gained a still snore signal triumph in Cork, the Conservatives having got but six out of sixty-four—the number of Town Councillors for that important town. I wish the results of the registries were equally favourable. In Belfast the Conservatives have a majo rity of sixteen, and in Sligo, Kells, and Trim, they have also considerable majorities. The state of the weather here has been for some time of the most inauspicious kind, and it is supposed to have materially injured the potato crop. The poor people will be subjected this winter to a pressure of want of food that has not been felt for many years, and this while abundance of wheat is in the country, but which those who are said to be protected by the Corn-laws will not be able to purchase.

EVENING SUN. THE PROVISION-LAWS. It cannot be too often impressed on the mind of the country, that, altho ug h the Corn-law is the giant-evil of our present monopoly system, it is not the only one. By the statute of the 7th and Bth Geo. IV., cap. 56, salted beef must pay, on importation into this country, a duty of 12s. per cwt. or about lid. per pound. Salted pork, not being hams or bacon, pays a like duty ; hams, a duty of 28s. per cwt.; and by the Geo IV., cap. 107, sec. 52, lamb and mutton are prohibited to be im ported on pain of forfeiture. We yesterday tasted a mutton-ham just brought from Buenos Ayres, and which, cured in that climate, and after a long voyage, was of very fine flavour, somewhat resembling that of a cured tongue. Though called a ham, it was, in fact, a shoulder of mutton, of a fine bright red colour, yet not over salted; its weight, after being cooked, 44-lb. The sheep of which this was a shoulder, was a fat wether, of a cross breed, between the Merino or Saxon, and the original country breed, and, of course, more valu able than the common sheep, for the skin. This sheep was bought for 12$ currency, the current rate of ex change at the time being lid. per current (or paper) dol lar ; so that the price of a fat, middling-sized, cross bred wether, alive, would be two shillings and ninepence. From this should be deducted the market value of the unwashed skin, which is 4d. or sd. ; reducing the price of a fat sheep, at Buenos Ayres, sold u mutton, to 2s. 4d. or 2s. sd. It is therefore clear, that if mutton might be imported duty free, this cured mutton might be laid down at Liverpool for less than 2d. a pound. The last wholesale prices of wether mutton in our market were from 6id. to 7d. per pound ; so that the man who can afford to buy meat (and this is more than many of the poor can do) pays for his mutton 40. to sd. a pound more than he would pay if the importk. tion of butcher's meat were free. The gentleman from whose statements we hawk obtained the above facts adds, that, until within the last eight or ten years, no care whatever waa taken of sheep in the province of Buenos Ayres; but now, as the wool is in demand, every attention is paid to them; and, as the quality of the wool improves, the number of sheep bred is augmented. In this article alone we might maintain a large trade with Buenos Ayres, sending our cotton goods for their mutton hams, but for the selfish monopoly of our landed interests. And so with beef, which, in Buenos Ayres is sold after the rate of 9d. per 251b5., and could be imported and sold in this country at 2d. a pound, if the duty of 12s. per ewt. were repealed.—Manchester Guardian.

(From the Nottingham Review of this day.) The hosiery trade is still extremely dull, and never has that manufacture been so generally stagnant since 1784-5, at the close of the American war, when trade, after about nine months' severe depression, suddenly rallied, and kept generally brisk until the commence ment of the French Revolution in 1793—a period of more than eight years ; during which era such was the state of prosperity that stockingers were at a premium, the masters frequently laying a guinea upon the rafter to induce a journeyman to take a frame. At the conclusion of the American war, such was the number of robberies in the torn, arising from want of employment, and the discharge of the army and navy, that the house holders voluntarily performed watch and ward, and in bodies paraded the streets all night. But in 1786, so much had affairs changed, that it is asserted, there was never a prisoner in the jails or House of Correction for months, which led to the practice of making a fives-alley of the town jail yard, which practice continued nearly twenty years. A rumour has much spread that some of the hosiers intend to reduce the making of cut-up hose twopence per dozen; this scorns, if true, pitiful indeed, as these unfortunate workmen ye been for a long time at the starving point. The charges made upon this de scription of workmen are oppressive indeed; as the price now stands, the journeyman having, in many ins:ances, to work two whole days for the charges made upon him for frame rent, taking-in, turning, winding, &c., before he can earn any money for his own maintenance. There fore to reduce such men in their wages is cruel indeed, if the reduction can possibly be avoided. The stocking-frames seem, at last, as wo have long apprehended they would, to be upon the move after the lace machines. Last week, two went to Chemnitz, in Saxony ; this week three wide two-needle frames have been purchased to be sent to France, in the vicinity of Beauvais, a large city about 30 miles to the north of Paris, where stocking frames have sprung up in the villages in great numbers, and to that extent, that Frenclicotton hosiery has lowered in Paris, with in a few years, more than 20 per cent. The manufac ture is still extending, but like the Paris stockingers, they are extremely jealous of English workmen, whom, being swifter hands, they fear and hate in proportion to their speed. It is asserted by the English in Paris, that the purse of Louis Philippe has materially assisted in this, as well as other speculations to raise the manu factures of France. One of his intimates openly asserts, that the present King of France haS advanced more than a million and a half sterling to promote the arts and manufactures of France. " For instance," he stated, •"ns he has advanced me 12,0001, to introduce a better method of tanning into France ; the French being bad tanners. His Minister, Guizot, opposed me, at the in stigation of the French tanners. I appealed (he ex claimed) to Louis Philippe, who said, in a determined manner ' Never mind him ; go on. I am King of the French, and not Guizot.'

The supineness, or rather the unaccountable apathy, that was evinced in high quar ters years ago, is probably the reason why this great ad vantage to the two countries—to all the connecting links and various interests between it and England—was de layed. A better spirit has been shown, and British In dia becomes, by every overland mail, more and more a part of the British empire. Perhaps the public remem ber the projector of this vast advantage to the two coun tries. It is painful to think that the British authorities, ever ready to reward public benefactors, have in this in stance strangely overlooked a meritorious individual.
