LONDON, WEDNESDAY, SEPTEMBER 26, 1849 A renewed effort was made, at the half-yearly General Court of the Bank of England, held last week, to induce the directors and proprietors to change the determination they had come to six months previously with respect to the amount of rest, or the reserved fund, which it was desirable to maintain at the disposal of the corporation. That decision had not been arrived at on light or trivial grounds. lc had been the subject of mature and at tentive consideration, and it was notorious that the directors had reluctantly yielded to the pressure from without in consenting to fix the amount at 3,000,0001. sterling. For the last half century the rest had never been suffered to fall much below that amount. It had constituted not only a fund to provide against any serious losses, or unexpected contingencies, but an important part of the working capital of the Bank: The large amount of the original capital which had ken lent to the nation, and which could not be made available, it being in fact the fund against which the corporation were empowered to issue a certain portion of their notes, and which, it invaded, should be replaced by bullion, diminished the amount of actual banking capital to a very low figure indeed, which would, be utterly inadequate to supply the wants of the coun'ry and to carry on the business of the establishment, were it not for the additional means afforded by the rest. That reserved fund at all periods, mom especially in seasons of monetary disturbanct • formed the principal source from which the usua profits were realised. What would have beta) the condition of the Batik on the 23d of October, 1847, la hen the unemployed notes in the banking dep.rtment amt.unted only to 1376,740/ , if the rest had been pre viously reduced to 2,000,0001. as now desired ? The calamitous results of the crisis would have been far more 'J . , r....... ......., , ti L., v u and short- sighted a policy had been acted on during more prosperous periods.

If they still keep on the pressure of "the screw"—if they still exhibit the same stringency and illiberality that have been so painfully perceptible since October, 1847, the com mercial and trading community will require addi tional banking accommodation, which might be provided from the resources which the directors of the Bank of England are either unable or unwilling to bring into profitable operation. The mayoralty of Sll' JAMES DUKE will be re markable for the hospitalities of which he has been not only the donor, but the recipient. The entertain ment given last meek, in honour of the LORD MAYOR of London, by the Mayor of Manchester, was of a most interesting nature in all its details. It was a festival worthy the manufacturing celebrity of Man chester, and the commercial pride of England. The labours of the manufacturing districts are so much identified with our national prosperity, that the im portance and u)agnificence of the great capitals of these districts are matters of national pride and personal interest to all classes of the community. Equally significant and appropriate was the reproof bestowed on " Coningsby " (as every one remembers), when on that young representative of the new generation sigh ing for a visit to the Niditerranean, and exclaiming, " What would I not give to see Athens ?" it was wisely retorted, " Have you seen Manchester ?" The age of ruins is, indeed, past; Manchester is the city of the nineteenth century, and consequently a festival like that which has just . been celebrated is endued with more than a passing interest. As an evidence of the rapid developement of our commercial prosperity, the May or of Liverpool, in his speech on that occasion, remarked, that when the last Prince of WALES and his brother the Duke of CLARENCE visited Liverpool, on the 18th September, 1806, the tonnage of that port was 507,000 tons, and now in 1849 it is 3,600,000 tons ; this he believed would give credence to the fac t that this seat of manufacture alone had added to the wealth of the country no less than one thousand millions sterling. The Prussian Ambassador, Cheva lier BUNSEN, who was present at the banquet, was eloquent in his praises of Manchester and England. Speaking of the former, he said, " I do not intend to enlarge upon a topic known to the whole world, about the greatness of your skill and enter prise, and the vastness of your stores. I have seen Manchester, and as everybody who has seen Manchester will say with me, and has said to me—all my ex pectations have been surpassed." He then more particularly commended the system adopted at the Penitentiary, believing it " to be a most important thing that the law which punishes should endeavour to reclaim those whom it has condemned." speaking of England, the Prussian Ambassador, alluded to the tnemorable 10th of April, and added a hope, that before long, Prussia and all Germany would be equally unanimous in behalf of constitutional, civil, and religious liberty. " When we have emerged from our difficulties," he said, " which I hope we are fast doing, we shall run a race with you in many an enterprise of industry, commerce, and trade." To this intimation we most heartily respond—So be it ! England will joyfully welcome competitors in such a struggle. Chevalier Br:mares sentiments have already been forcibly expressed by the poet Caste BELL, when he wrote— `• The spirit of Britannia Invokes across the main Her sister Allemania To break the tyrant's chain. By one kindrtd blood, she cries, Rt3e, Allemlnians, rise, And hallowed thrice the band Of our kindrrd hearts shall be When your land shall be the land OF the free—of the free!" That time, so ds-arly desired, we are now told is a hand, and in Germany w e are h ence f or th t o fi n d a rival in the pursuit of liberty ani the cultivation of commerce. Again w•e respond—So be it I And again to quote Chevalier BUNSEN, " their prosperity is our prosperity," and vice versa. When we call to mind these promises contained in the very excellent speech of the Prussian Minister, and the eloquent discourses of the Lonn MAYOR, and the other magistrates as sembled, and especially when we reflect on the character of the meeting, and the city in which it took place, we all e juninecr in ps vz , t)Unci.n 6 eLL VI Vll Cestival of Manchester important in its principle, and interesting in its details.

GEU ANY AND The Russian troops who occupied the mountain villages have been sent on to Comorn, and have been replaced by 3,000 men of the Sclavonhie Landsturm. Count CHOWNSRY, Governor of Lower Austria, has published a notice, stating that the house of M. A. ROTHSCIIILD, of Frankfort, has been autho rised to receive subscriptions, securities, and pay ments for the new A us t r i an l oan . Th e Emperor of RUSSIA has offered to contribute largely to the new Austrian loan of sixty millions. The new paper money of 4i per cent. sold at the Bourse at 851 to-day. file Minister of War has decided that the Austrian fleet of - Venice shall be transferred from Pola to Trieste, and that the command shall be given in the German language. It is said that a corps of observa tion similar to that at the Voiarlberg is to be esta blished at Bohemia. A regiment coming from Italy, and a battalion from Genie, and one from Innspruck, are marching for Bohemia. A letter from Trieste of the 17th, states that the EMPEROR is prevented by indisposition from paying that city a visit on the opening of the railway. KLAGENFURT'', SEPT. 13.—GEORGEY, as has al ready been stated, arrived here on the 11th. He was seated in his own carriage, accompanied by his wFe, his daughter, and Major ANDRESSY. Immediately behind his carriage was a second, occupied by arquebusierea. The whole party alighted at the hotel of the Imperial Crown. lie walks about the streets quite at liberty,, accompanied only by his wife or the Major. Public curiosity is of course greatly excited wherever he appears. He has expressed his intention of purchasing a country house in the neighbourh..l the sweets of retirement with his family, after a year of unwonted excitement. The Wanderer says that the Imperial army around Comorn have received orders to bombard the for tress, with every species of projectile, until it be destroyed. This is a lamentable resource, but it is the only one which will make us masters of this last strong hold of the insurgents. An assault would in volve a useless sacrifice of the soldiers; and, more over, recent experiments have proved that the projectiles reach not only the city but also the for tress. It is no exaggeration to say that the siege of Co:nom has already involved the cost of a whole cam. paign ; the bombardment, by means of the large bornbi, cost each time as much as 64 florins. The last condi tions which the garrison proposed were as follows : Free egress for the whole garrison, with their arms, and liberty to retire to anypart of Hungary which they may think fit. The garrison is 35,000 strung. PRUSSIA. The Second Chamber has rejected the measure proposed by the Ministry for the placing the Burgher Guard in a state of non-activity, but has passed a measure directing all the arms issued by the Govern ment to the Burgher Guard to be returned. Accounts from Weimar state that the Duchess of ORLEANS is carrying on an active correspondence with England and France. HOLLAND. THE HAGUE.—In the sitting of the Second Cham ber on the 22d, Mr. VAN THORNEEKE'S motion to postpone the proceedings till the reconstitution of the Cabinet was adopted by 40 vett s against 7. Nothing is yet known as to new ministerial combinations; many names are cited, but none with sufficient cer taintyhe t c o be relied up oustitutionul on. Correspondence gives the fol lowing additional particulars respecting the robber.), committed on the firm of Schaffhausen :—A libra rian at Berlin received a packet addressed to London, with the request th. i t h e would forward it, without' ,lelay, to that city. This packet having been opened by the police, was found to contain the stolen shares, to the amount of 43,000. Th e t hi e f h as not yet been taken. The Deutsche Zeitung says that the robbery of Schaffhausen Bank is a topic of lively dis cussion at Cologne. Pursuit is being made after a stenographer, formerly of Berlin, and after wards one of the editors of the West Deutsche Zeitung at Cologne. It is said that he employed his younger brother, who was one of the clerks in the said firm, to steal the shares and forward them to him, and then for both to make their escape to foreign parts. The stenographer set out on the evening of the 17th inst. from Cologne; the following morning the clerk was reported sick, and did not make his ap pearance at the office. On the 19th, suspicions having been excited, investigations were made, and the robber was discovered. The clerk was no where to be found, but the police having given the necessary instructions, he was ar rested this evening, just as he was embarking on board a steamer. After having acknowledged his crime, be denounced his brother and other persons as accomplices. He was accordingly locked up for the night. Madrid journals of the 20th have arrived. The Espana says that there was some intention of introducing postage stamps of twenty maravedis (about three-halfpence), and of allowing letters to go free by them all over the kingdom if paid in advance ; if not so paid, letters are to be subject to the present rate of postage. MADRID BOLSA, SEPT. 20.—Threes, 281 ; Fives, I lit; Exchange on London, 50 80. PORTUGAL. Advices have been received from Lisbon of the 19th. The country was perfectly tranquil. A dis patch had been received from Turin, requesting that the body of CHARLES ALBERT might be permitted to remain at Oporto for the present. THE NORTHERN STATES. AUSTRIA AND HUNGARY. A letter from Vienna of the 20th says : " The state of siege will immediately be raised. It is very probable that in the next organization of Hungary there vi ill be three distinct groups —that of Hungary, or the Magyar, properly so called, Transylvania and Scla vonia, and Servia. 'J he Sclovacs of the north will, how ever, continue to be considered as Hungarians, and have even wished to be called such at present. " The second grand conference of the Council of Ministers takes place in presence of the Emperor at Sckenbrun. After that the Emperor will proceed to Trieste, accompanied by Marshal Radetzky. The . mar riage n otthe e i Emperor sexpec w t i e t d. with cousin,h c is ountads i t i h a e 3 Prncess sZelinsky, a captain of Hulans, has been condemned to ten years' hard labour, for having betrayed the Imperial cause." According to a letter from Acs, the negotiations with the fortress of Comorn have been completely broken off, and the Imperial troops are preparing for an assault upon the fortress. The actual siege is to commence during the course of the present week. 80,000 men, together with the best military equip ments and materials, are at the disposal of the COM mender of the siege. Marshal GERARD, writing of Antwerp, said it would take 29 days to take that fortress by assault, after a regular siege. Field Marshal NUGENT, having far greater difficulties to sur• mount, will require from 40 to 48 days to take Comorn. According to the Wanderer, a report is circulated in Vienna, that in consequence of the in tervention of RADETZRY, Comorn will capitulate on the same terms as Venice. Among the numerous conditions proposed by the Council of War of Comorn for the surrender of the fortress, is the de mand of an entire amnesty for the 'superior officers and civil functionaries of the fortress, and the con servation of their rank as officers. The insurgent Count LENANGE, it is said, has died of cholera at Arad. BELGIUM. The .Zfoniteur Beige publishes returns of the im ports and exports of Belgium in the first eight months of the present year. The following are the principal articles imported : Coffee 14,023,765 kilogrammes, raw cotton 11,338,941 kilos., wheat 25,600,316 kilos., rye 8,360,156 kilos., wool 3,558,268 fl,x 1,965,369 kilos., rice 2,895.336 kilos., salt 18,780,818 kilos., sugar 12,279,556 kilos., to bacco 3.064,535 kilos. All these present consider able diminutions compared with the imports of the same period of 1848. Among the exi.orts in the first eight month of the present year were arms for 3,957,854 francs, coal 936,322 tons, cast iron in pigs 27,594 tons, 8,248,653 kilos. of refined sugar, 714,890 kilos. tissues of cotton, 479,890 kilos. v% ool• len cloths, 6,473,667 kilos. glass, 6,282,283 kilos. zinc. All these present a great i❑crease over the exports of the first eight months of 1848. The King and Queen of the BELGIANS arrived at Antwerp on the 22d, and were received with every demonstration of respect and joy by the authorities, troops, and population. DL CRIES OF SCHLESWIG.

A thick fog came on about nine A. 11., soon alter which reports of musketry were heard; at eleven A.m. the fog cleared off, when the schooner could not be seen; she could not have passed the Cape, there being little or no wird, and it is supposed that she must have been taken in shore by pirates.

The magistrates and citizens of Flensburg have addressed a memorial to the Commission, not yet published, in which they firmly declare that they will not submit to Danish authority, or ratify any acts that may hereafter be regarded as in dicating submission. At Tanning, as well as Husum and other districts, the magistrates firmly refuse to publish the decrees of the Commission and the K , proclamation ; and, moreover, what is more serious, it appears that the public receivers refuse to forward contributions, taxes, and dues to the Central Treasury at Flensburg, declaring these sums to be due and only payable to the Schleswi g -H o l ste i n Treasury at Rensburg. This is done under pretext of obeying certain old laws of the land (a marked contradiction), dating from 1719, 1723, and 1783. The Commission has replied in energetic language to these persons, and threatens the employment of force; and further, has declared that those persons who think proper to dis obey the Commission and ob e y t h e Stadtholderste must expect to be dismissed. But then comes another difficulty : no persoils can be found to fill the vacant offices, so the recalcitrants must remain. It is really high time that the Prussian Government, as well as the guaranteeing or mediating power, should proceed to the ultimate arrangement of this question, or that they should leave the twe parties to arrange the question between themselves, under the strict neutra lity of Prussia. A report is curre n t th at Denmark is not indisposed to join the triple alliance, including Holstein i n th e b ond. This would obviate as via wteonelel difficulty, but will not satisfy the Schleswickers unless they obtain complete political independence. NG'S SWITZERLAND. The Revue de Geneve denies that any application has been made by the French Government to have the French refugees at Geneva sent into the interior of the country.

In Mark lane: to-day there is no alteration in the prices of grain. The Overland Mail from India has at length arrived, being some days overdue. The political intelligence she brings is of a satisfactory tenor, and the com mercial details, given in another column of The Sun, will be found encouraging likewise. A large business was doing in exports, and many articles of import had a fair sale. The weather, which had lasen:so dry in some parts as to occasion serious apprehensions of famine, was more favourable. The letters by the Caledonia steamer, from the United States, have been delivered in due course. The Stock market had been much .more buoyant, and there was more activity in the Money market. The banks discounted freely, but more business paper was offering, and holders submitted to higher rates. Capi tal, nevertheless, was expected to continue abundant at low rates fur some time to come, but should the imports from Europe continue large, there relight be some ship ment of specie. During the week ending the B,h in stant, there bad been 76,000 dollars forwarded from New York, and during the previous two or three weeks silver only was imported. The New Orleans' report upon the Cotton trade for the year ending the Ist of September is interesting to a most extended circle in Europe, but we have only room for extracts. It is stated that— " Among the peculiarities that have marked the course of business during the past season, we may men tion the fact that the purchases, particularly those for Great Britain, have been speculative to a greater extent than usual, as most of the orders with fixed limits, though gradually advanced from time to time, were generally below the range of cur own market, and thus the purchases for England were mostly made by speculative shippers, or by those who, from the tenor of their orders, were at liberty to exercise some dis cretion in respect to prices. The quality of the Loui siana and Mississippi crops was much below) the usual average, principally from the admixture of leafy par ticles, and thus the proportion of the receipts from those sections ranging above the good middling has been unusually small, and as for really fine cottons they could only be met setieft in occasional very limited quantities. The bulk of the demand, however, has fallen upon the middling dezeriptions, and in the early part of the sr axon, when the best cottons are received, and when they are usually more inquired for en the part of buyers for the continent of Europe and our northern ports, the better grades were comparatively neglected, and the difference in price between middling and fair was reduced to to to cent per lb. As the season advanced, however, the demand for the better qualities improved, and theme comparative scarcity car ried the difference between middling and fair to I,f to 1i cent per lb., while on the still finer grades the varia tion was much greater. The receipts from Tennessee and Alabama were of unusually good quality, and embraced many crops that would compare favourably with the product of Louisiana and Mississippi. The total receipts at this port since Ist September last, from all sources, are 1,142,382 bales. This amount includes 51.585 bales received from Mobile and Florida, and from Texas by sea. (That portion of the Texas crop which reaches us viii Red River cannot be distin guished from the product of Louisiana.) Deducting from our total receipts the above amount received from Mobile, Florida, and Texas, the remainder shows our receipts proper to be 1,090,797 bales, or a decrease of 97,936 bales as compared with last year. The total exports during the same period are, 1,167,303 bales, of which 645,018 bales were shipped to eireat Britain, 154,647 to France, 161,827 to the North and South of Europe, Mexico, &e.; and 205,811 to United States ports, including 2,300 bales Western States. Comparing the exports with those of last year, we find an increase of 13,679 bales to France, and of 7 526 to the North and South of Europe, &c., while to Great Britain there is a decrease of 9,005 bales, and of 44,662 bales to the United States ports. The total receipts at all the Atlantic and Gulf ports, up to the latest dates received—as shown by our general cotton table —are 2,708,514 boles, against 2,325,108 bales to the same dares last year; showing an increase of 383,406 bales. This amount, however, it should be understood does not represent the actual me p of the United States, as this cannot be made until the full returns of receipts, exports, stock, &c., are concen trated at one point. For a Belies of years the statement of the cotton crop has been made up by the New York Shipping and Commercial List; anti should they retain the usual basis of their calculations, the actual crop will fall short of the receipts at the ports, as the stork at Augusta and Hamburgh will be less than it was at the close of last year, and the difference between the two stocks will be deducted from the receipts, as belonging to the crop of last year. At all events the crop of 1848- 9 cannot vary greatly from 2100,000 bales." By way of New York there are advices of July 20 from Buenos Ayres, but the contents are unimportant. Bolivia was still very distracted. From Canada we learn that the rate of exchange on London for 60 days was at 10 to 10i per cent, premium. the rates of freight to London were 3s. 9d. per barrel.

The nomination went al' so quietly, and both parties expressed so earnest a desire to avoid an) thi g that could Excite acrimony, that no one ever dreamt that the public peace would be broken at any future stage of the proceedings. Up to 4 o'clock, when the polling for the day ce as. d, there was no sign of a quarrelsome dis position evinced on either side. A crowd, of course, was colh cite) in the High-street, and under the stimu lating influence -of be, r, the names of the rival candi dates were shouted our, with the usual wish that, like the King of old, they might live for ever. KAI' party also had its band of musicians and its flagbearers, who paraded the streets, making a frightful noise, tut seriously alarmirg no one. The ladies of Guildford exhibited themselves in perfect security at their windows and balconies, each evincing by a smart rosette her political leanings. There was plenty of ex citement, but it was the good-humoured constitutional feeling exhibited in the customary way, and nothing mere. It so happened, however, that the head -quarters of the rival eancidates were in the White Bart and Crown hotels, which stand directly opposite to each oti er. The exultation of Mr. Evelyn and his friends was not very agreeable to the supporters of Mr. Edgell, and their presence, on the other hand, was equally inWelnt dwhitichwassidiempthosesidbliestutorbaterilz. ifensive to the adv ocates of protection to native industry. disturbances d a p t e r e h n a s matter much to k now; but no sooner did Mr. Evelyn p u s e d d o c e o s m i ; appear on the balcony of the White Hart than missiles began to fly about. First they were of rather a harm less character, such as pieces of stale bread, and other substances not likely to give a severe blow. By degr. es harder materials were employed, and a few panes of glass were broken. The smashing sound with which the glass gave way seemed to set like a charm upon the mob, and fur the rest of the evening they gave vent to their excitement by steadily pursuing this amuse ment. The partisans of Mr. Evelyn of course directed their attention to the windows of his opponent's hotel, while those of Mr. Edgell paid them back in kind by shivering nearly every pane of glass in tLe frost windows of the White Bart which they could reach with their missile's. Finding that small stones did not answer their purpose, the belligerents took to brickbats, and eventually t o flowerpots, a row of which happened to stand invitiugiy near. The whole constabulary force that could be mustered to quell this disturbance con sisted of four or five men. :they attempted to interfere, but found that it was useless to do so, and thus the smock frocks were left perfectly free to the exercise of those destructive tastes with which politics or beer had inspired them. Nero addled while Rome was burning, and somewhat after the same fashion the worthy inha bitants of Guildford stood by in evident gratification at the damage caused. "It will be a good thing for the glsziers, was the general remark, " and of course the candidates will pay." Some severe knocks and truises must have been received while all this was going on, and ladies who were in the hotels when the disturbance com menced must have been much alarmed. It is to be hoped that the authorities will be prepared to suppress any at tempt at a repetition of scenes so disgraceful, and which have so strong a tendency to throw contempt on election proceedings generally. At a late hour thi • s morning intelligence was received from Guildford that Mr. Edgell had retired from the contest. Tall) 'E OF KIAKALDY.--FLAX IMPORTATION.—• The shipping trade at the harbour for a few weeks has been in a very animated state on account of the large quantity of flax imported, chiefly from the ports of Rigs, St. Petersburgh, and Archangel. The consumption of flax in our spinning -factories has been unusually large this season, in consequence of an increased demand for ) arcs to supply the foreign market. The export of erns on a great scale is comparatively new, and is, we tear, one which our Spinners may find to be of the same uncertain or temporary nature as formerly. Tho home trade, however, is still in a very healthy and flourishing state.—Fiftsltire Journal. Mr. Wyld, M.P. for Bodmin, who has taken the place of Mr. T. S.

(Before the ASSISTANT JUDGE) George Aicholl s an d Margaret James, drscrib?, set.% ants out o f pl ace , were indicted for stealing a D u u : and contents, o f t h e va l ue of 201., the property o f t h e Great teat Western Railway Company.

J ames, the prisoner, obta i ne d a t the terminus the box belonging to Mr. James, leaving.ln its place her own much smaller one. Nicholls carried it away for her. In a week or so afterwards, the male prisoner called at the station to claim the box left by the female; when he was told that she had taken the box of another passenger, and must bring that back, before she could h ave h er own. H e said he would tell her so, and would return per sonally, but nothing more was seen of birth until about a fortnight ago, when Collard, the chief n( lice inspector of the Great Western Railway, we t him in Hydc-park-square. Mrs. James was soon after wards met by Collard, on the way to the lodgings occu pied by the Frisoners, who lived together, and nearly the whole of the contents of the b ox , w hi c h consiste d at cicthing and ornaments, were found there, and identified by Mr. and Mrs. James, the owners.

In the present case the female prisoner did not take the box from amongst the rest at the station. It was given to her by the servants at the station, upon her description; the first mistake was theirs, not hers; and in this case, notwithstanding the excellence of the arrangements, the mistake was made.
