The directors are happy to announce that, in consequence of the large number of shares that have been allotted and paid upon, the share list will be closed on Friday, the 30th November, after which date no applications will be received. Arrangements have been made which will enable the bank to eomrneace business early in January next. This, bank, to be incorporated by royal charter, is estab lisher', for the purpose of founding the principle of MUTUAL BA'ARING, whereby customers, who create the profits, be comae entitled to a participation in them, by way of interest on their cash balances. The principle of mutuality has been for many years acted on by insurance companies, and their policy-holders have participated to a very great extent in the bonuses, with much advantage to the institutions and the she.rebolders. By banks, however, to this period, MUTU ALP.V.Y has been neglected. The whole of the profits result ing from successful operations have been given to the share -Ih7 only. ADVANTAGES OFFERED BY THE UNITY BANK. I. To shareholders, 5 per cent., from the date of payment, on all paid-up capital, as well as 50 per cent. of the profits. 11. To customers, in addition to the ordinary amount paid on deposit and current accounts, interest on their cash ba lances, equivalent to 50 per cent. of the profits. This is the plan on which the Us= Jorxr Smelt MUTUAL BANKING ASSOCIATION , is established. By it is created, for the first time, an identification of interest between the customers and shareholders of the bank, who thus become mutually con cerned in the extension of its business. It will be the means of openin up new business, preserving a connection once formed, and productive of practical benefits to the public generally. CONDITION OF LONDON JOINT STOCK BANKS. The success of joint stock banks in London is readily ad mitted, as well as proved by the statements periodically issued by those great commercial institutions. In support of this, the following table is submitted, showing the condi tion of each of the six metropolitan joint stock banks which have published accounts, the original cost of the shares, their present market value, and the dividends payable thereon ; x 47 3234, aa 39% 31 16 25 1 20 • a 12 10 6J g The aLove banks publish the following facts with regard to their positions I. The entire amount of subscribed capital in the six joint stock banks in London is 12,704,2001. 11. The amount thereof paid up is 2,817,0351. 111. The amount of deposits, or customers' balances, is 29,376, 410/. IV, The total number of shareholders is 4,097. V. The number of shares issued, 187,084. , - Thus is presented proof of known security, extent of bus', nesa, and general financial resources. These establishments holfl half-yearly meetings, and lay before their connections full accounts of their progress and general operations. This course cannot fail in inspiring with confidence all who have any dealings with them, while it gives to the public the means of forming an opinion as to their responsibility. INCREASED VALUE OF JOINT-STOCK BANK SHARES. It is proved to demonstration, that joint-stock banking, under proper supervision , affords a most legitimate and un usually profitable field for the investment of capital. The dividends paid by the banks above quoted vary from 6 to 25 per cent., and the latest quotations of their shares show an increase of 55 to 225 per cent. on their paid-up capital. The real increase, however, in the value of the shares may be bet ter understood, by the fact that the paid-up capital of these six banks is 2,817,0351., and that its present market value is 6,912,116/. It has thus increased two-and-a-half fold, so that every it, has now become 2/. 10s., and there is every prospect of this amount continuing to increase in value. COURT OF DIRECTORS OF THE UNITY BANK.

THE NEW PRINCIPLE INTRODUCED BY THE UNITY BANK. Regarding the distinctive ;inCiple of the Unity Bank, it has been suggested that there must be a detraction from the profits of the shareholders, by reason of 50 per cent. being given to the customers of the bank. This idea can only have arisen, however, from the want of a careful consideration of the whole subject. In the first place, it is necessary to re member from whom the profits of a bank are derived. They are not made from the share capital. The very first ingredi eat fur the formation of profits is a customer. The amount of profit must, therefore, be governed by the amount of busi ness transacted ; and the larger the business. provided it be properly conducted, the larger will be the profits. It must be borne in mind, also, that the real extent of the dividends must depend on the number of cents. of profits, and that 50 per cent, of the profits, extending over large transactions, may be far greater than 100 per cent. derived from more circum scribed business. If, the; the customers of a bank consti tute its profits, the customers should be induced to transact their business with the bank, and thereby the profits of the shareholder, instead of being reduced, will be augmented. The inducement held out to the customer, however, should be such as does not involve or complicate the business of bank ing. It should not be by the promise of some peculiar accom modation, or some particular and increased rate of interest, or by any departure from that sound system of joint-stock banking which has stood the test of years of experience, and procured so great prosperity. But it should be, as it is in the Unity Bank, an advantage which interferes in no degree with established principles, but merely allocates a portion of that which has already been declared to be profit to those who have been the makers of it, Assurance companies have been accustomed to apportion certain of their profits, by way of bonus, to their assurers ; and so general has become the re cognition of the right of the assurer to this participation, that no assurance association would now be established without this essential to success. The justice of the principle consists in this—that as the assurers make the profits of the company, they ought to be participators in its prosperity. What is just in assurance will be found just also in banking. The customers of a bank make the profits of the bank, and they ought also to be participators in its prosperity. It has been asserted, also, that the 50 per cent, of the pro fits proposed to be divided, while it would detract from the profits of its shareholders, would be but a trifling benefit to the customers. It might, in the first place, be replied that no benefit is considerid " trifling" by those who rightly esti mate pecuniary affairs ; that the benefit, if trifling, is in addi tion to all the other benefits usually derived by banking at a joint-stock bank ; and that no correct data can be formed of the profits which will be made. On the other hand, it must be remembered that hitherto persons have taken their bank ing account where personal feeling, accommodation, or con venience of locality might lead them. Now, for the first time, by the introduction of the principle of mutuality, self-interest is appealed to. And when, to the large number of the public at!racted by this all-powerful stimulus, is added the number of the connections of the Unity Insurance Associations in all parts of the country, who have a peculiar identification with and interest in its success, it may fairly be stated, that ante cedent data are not sufficient to form an estimate of the ad vantages which both the shareholders and customers will derive from the Unity Bank. Great difficulty exists in estimating the effects likely to be produced by the establishment of this new and most desirable feature in banking. It is one that must become highly popu lar with every commercial interest, and with every class of the public, because its simplicity and advantages are at once to be seen and appreciated. To those great commercial bodies which are compelled to have large cash balances constantly at their bankers', it will prove to be a serious consideration, and a most important source of profit. The railway, dock, gas, water, steam navi gation, insurance, and other companies, professional men, merchants, brokers, gentlemen of fortune, and traders of all kinds, will duly estimate the difference in the system now proposed, from that heretofore existing. In fine, as joint stock banks became a public necessity, as is now proved, so will the principle of mutuality—whereby these admirable in stitutions may be rendered still more serviceable to the public, and in no way less safe—demand the best consideration of the community at large. BUSINESS TO BE UNDERTAKEN. . All the usual business of banking will be undertaken ; and arrangements will be made for extending the transactions of the Bank in every desirable quarter. CURIUM ACCOUNTS will be made up half-yearly, namely—to the 30th of June and the 31st of December, and interest will be allowed at the rate of 21. per cent. on them. DEPOSIT Accourrs.—With respect to these, the rate of lb in tereste allowed on money placed at seven days' notice will 1/. per cent, under the rate of discount on first class bills adopted by the Bank of England, regulated thereby. The bank will give receipts for the sums so deposited, or, for the convenience of depositors leaving England, promissory notes, or bills, including interest as well as principal, at not less than six months' date. The bank will undertake the agency of country and foreign banks, whether joint stock or private, and will afford every accommodation to travellers and others with respect to circu lar notes and letters of credit. It will receive all kinds of income for its customers, including annuities, dividends, mili tary, naval, and civil officers' pay. It will undertake the sale and transfer of stock in the public funds, &c. ; and will be responsible for the safe custody of title deeds and other secu rities belonging to its customers, to which they will at all times have convenience of access. Application for prospectuses and forms of application for the remaining shares, to be made to Messrs. R. and J. Sutton, stock brokers, 22, Royale Exchange ; or to the secretary, at the principal offices, 10, Cannon-street, City. HENRY LAKE, Secretary. FORM OF APPLICATION FOR SHARES. T THE DIRECTORS OF THE VNITY JOINT-STOCK MUTUAL BANKING ASSOC lATION. - Gentlemen,— I request that you will allot me shares of 1001. each in the above association, and in consideration of such allotment, or any less number you may approxiate to me, I hereby undertake to pay the deposit, or first call of 101. per share thereon, and 401. at the time of incorporation, ROYAL LYCEUM THEATRE. THIS EVENING, and every evening during the week, the GRAND ELEUSINIAN SPECTACLE of MAGIC and MYSTERY, by Professor ANDERSON, the Great Wizard of the North, in 12 acts, with ever-changing variety of incidents, continuous surprises, novel and extraordinary effects. Magic and Mystery is an entirely new entertainment, pos sessing distinctive characteristics and peculiar phases of amusement. It is not a monologue, for the audience them selves perform their parts with the principal actor, some of them on the stage and others in front ; it is not an exhibition, for though everything becomes metamorphosed before the eyes of the visitors no one can be positive that he sees any one thing ; but it is a comedy really performed by the com pany; a melodrama replete with startling positions and unex pected denouements ; a magnificent spectacle, with 2,000 of the public every night to appear as auxiliaries ; and an ex travaganza, in which all that seems to be is entirely beyond the bounds of probability. Professor Anderson returns his thanks to thronged and fashionable audiences which have nightly filled the Lyceum Theatre to overflow, and by means of whose generous aid he has been enabled to announce Magic and Mystery for con tinuous repetition. He believes that no professor of his art' has at any time or in any place been honoured with an amount of success so extensive, so decided, and so unusual. He would attribute .that success to three causes; first, that in his present entertainment he has placed before his visitors the results of a life sedulously devoted to the attainment of perfected skill in one peculiar art, and to perfect which he has travelled the globe in every clime ; secondly, that he has spared no trouble nor expense to put this entertainment on the stage in the most elaborate manner, by the employment of the first mechanicians and artists of the day; and thirdly, that, while endeavouring to provide amusement for those who honour him with their presence, he has not forgotten that it is possible to afford information also, and that the oppor tunity should not be neglected of exposing conjuring where ever it has been used for nefarious purposes, or whenever by resorting to the conjuror's arts, in an illegitimate manner, the designing have succeeded in making dupes of the credulous. The 937 letters on the subject of spirit-rapping, which Pro fessor Anderson has received, from the time of opening the theatre up to the present date, bear witness to the great in terest taken on the subject of this singular delusion ; whilst many of them bear melancholy evidence to the dangers which attend a belief in the superstitious nonsense of the " Spiri tualists." Judging simply by the correspondence which has resulted, Professor Anderson's expose of spirit-rapping wad his illustration of the so-called table phe nomena, have pro duced a sensation unequalled by any previous attempt to ex pose a mischievous and impudent juggle. It is impossible for Professor Anderson to reply at length to a tithe of the communications which reach him on the subject. He regrets that many of these should come from ladies and gentlemen who, from their position in society and their well-known in tellectual attainments, he would least have expected to have been converts to a belief so preposterous in itself, and so easily susceptible of being controverted and disproved. Every evening, from the Lyceum stage, Mr. Anderson's opinions on spirit-rapping are expressed, and every evening, within the Lyceum, how tables can be made to rap is exhibited and elucidated. It is respectfully requested that this public exposition will be accepted generally as Professor Anderson's only mode of replying at full length to his multitudinous correspondents. Ile regrets that the names of the great and learned of the land should have been made to figure in the documents emanating from the spirit-rappers, as for instance the following, ex tracted from the Morning Advertiser of Thursday, Septem oer2o, and taken by that journal from the New York Spiri tual Telegraph. It purports to emanate from an American spirit-rapper, Mr. D. D. Hume :—" Sir David Brewster frankly confesses that he is sorely puzzled' at what he has witnessed, and Lord Brougham acknowledges himself to be thoroughly nonplussed. Both of these noted men brought the whole force of their keen discernment to bear upon the 'olution of the phenomena; but the presence of substantial, actual hands, and the demonstrative strength of the spirits who thus clothed themselves for the time, and moved mate rial objects about the room, proved to be too much of a ques tion for them to master." Mr. D. D. Hume, the author of the above, has recently left England, and the following account of who, and what he is, occurs in the Family Herald, No. 648: —" This young man, who is a Scotchman by birth, an d now in Italy, is a remarkable medium for all the manifestations without apparatus. Barnum, who is well-known throughout the Anglo-Saxon world as a splendid humbug, offered him 2,000 dollars per annum if he would perform at his museum in New York. Barnum then took it for granted that mediums could be bought. He was somewhat astonished when his offer was refused. Hume, on telling the fact in London lately, simply and honestly remarked, that the money would have been very acceptable to him, for he was poor, young (under 2U), an or phan, and in very had health : but he would have been afraid of losing his power as a medium, and he would sooner lose his life. The refusal, however, made Barnum thoughtful. He inquired into the subject; and now Barnum, one of the greatest humbugs in the world, and withal a conjuror, is one of the firmest believers in spiritualism." It is cer tainly surprising to find such a paragraph as this in the editorial article of an established journal, the editor of whom might be supposed to be sane. Even if Barnum does believe in spirit-rapping--does spirit-rapping gain or lose by this accession to its adherents ? and, with Barnum's endorse ment to it, is this bill, drawn on public credulity, more likely to be negotiated ? Professor Anderson would believe not ; hut, when he finds that educated clergymen of the Church of England have the temerity to subscribe their names to so gross a swindle, when he finds that the Incumbent of Wortley (the Rev. N. J. Godfrey) positively asserts h;s belief in it, and writes a book on the subject, he considers it t i be time for him to state that which he knows of the mechanism by which it is eftteted, and the mischief to which it tends. In the Morning Advertiser of October 3 appears a letter from Sir David Brewster, relative to that which he saw at Cox's Hotel. in company with Lord Brougham. He distinctly states that which the Wizard of the North proclaims every night--that spirit-rapping is nothing more than conjuring applied to bad purposes. In the Morning Advertiser of the following day, however, there is an answer to Sir David's letter from one who was present when he and Lord Brougham had their seance with the spirits, in which the writer says, that " the table (a large dinner-table, I believe) moved about in the most extraordinary manner, and, among other things, a large ac cordion was conveyed by an invisible agency to my hand and then to Lord Brougham's, in which, held by his lordship's right hand, apart from any person, it played an air through out." With such a statement, printed for the edification of the people of the 19th century, with the facts before us that the most talented men of the day are permitting themselves to be deluded by these juggling spirit-mongers—that the greatest novelist of the age is now engaged in snaking it the subject of a new work, and that a "spiritual convention" has actually been advertised to be held in St. Martin's-hall, Professor Anderson trusts that his exposures of the spiritual ists of America, as given by him nightly at the Lyceum, will be received by the people of England as genuine honest at tempts to provide an antidote for the bane of the spiritual jugglers. In the course of the last five weeks 100,017 persons have visited the Lyceum Theatre,—a larger number, it is believed, than has ever before been assembled within its walls in so short a period. Magic and Mystery is repeated every even. ing, the programme being continually changed.

Typifying the evening's entertainment in the production of the very volu minous from a small volume, in the extraction of magnitude out of minuteness, in developing bulk where no space appears for its existence, in discovering odd things in odd places, and in bringing forth unexpected wonders from the most unlikely place for to be found. Act 4. Magical Locomotion ; or, Transition without Trou ble.

JOHN' SADLEIR, Chairman. London, 18, Cannon-street, Nov. 12, 1853. Naval and Military Intelligence. The following general order has been issued to the Crimean army : " The Commander of the Forces has been much sur prised at the numerous applications for leave of absence which have lately reached him from officers of all ranks in the army. "He has to remind them that they are still in the presence of, a powerful enemy ; moreover, that they have duties to perform in camp not less important than those in the field ; and that the insttuction, discipline, and well-being of the troops are subjects which require the earnest attention of all good soldiers." MALTA, Nov. 7.—The English steam•transport Jackal] arrived on the 29th of October, from London, with Go vernment stores, and l e ft for Valaklava, on the 31st. The Imperatrice, steam-transport, with hospital stores, arrived from London on the 30th, and left on the fol lowing day for Balaklava. The Levant, steam.transport, arrived from Lowestoft on the 30th of October, with railway plant, and left for Balaklava on the Ist of November. The Amity, steam-transport, arrived on the let of No vember, from Woolwich, with stores, and left for Bala klava on the 2d. The Azoff, steam-transport, Capt. Robert Thornhill, arrived from London on the 2d of November, with huts, last from Tunis, having pukintq- that port owing to her having, ca - the 27th of Odtobei,`during a heavy gale of wind from the southward and eastward, at 5 a.m., when about 27 miles to the eastward of the Skerki reeks, struck thrice heavily against what was then conjectured to be, and now seems beyond a doubt to have been, a wreck, occasioning her damage in the compartment be t ween the forecastle and the foremost one, when, in order to lighten the vessel by the head, in consequence of her great immersion from the water made in the damaged part, some of the stores were cast overboard. At the moment of the disaster much confusion was caused by a rush to lower the boats, notwithstanding the inutility of lowering them in such a sea, by aenurnher of the Army Working Corps, of which, besides their officers, Messrs. Brown, Burn, Morris, Sherwood, and Warren, and Dr. Volpy, she had as many as 318 men on beard ; far too great a number for a vessel of this class. On their arri val at Tunis thiee men came off in a body, and made known their determination not to proceed further on the voyage in the Azoff, under the pretext that she was not seaworthy, and 163 of them persisted in this determina tion, notwithstanding the assurances of their own offi cers, those of the ship, and the consul. The commander had no other remedy than to come to an arrangement with the Maltese schooner Redschid to receive them on board for conveyance to Malta, where, under charge of Mr. Superintendent Brown and two other officers, this unruly set arrived 24 hours after the Azoff. The offi cers speak in the highest terms of Captain Thornhill's coolness, judgment, skill, and discretion under the try ing circumstances of the disaster and subsequent de meanour of these turbulent characters, and we under stand he has officially made application to have the matter investigated by the Port Admiral, for the satis faction of the parties concerned and Government, in whose service the vessel is engaged. The following is the captain official report to the secretary of Admiral Stopford : " Sir,—l have the honour to acquaint you, for the in formation of Admiral Stopford, that the steamship Azoff, under my command, struck on a wreck, or an unknown shoal, at 5 a.m. on the 27th of October, during a fresh gale from E.S.E. to S.E., with a high sea running. The engine was never stopped, and after striking thrice, without hanging for more than a minute, passed over the wreck or reef. The pumps were immediately sounded, but no water was found in the ship, except in the second compartment from the bow, which was full of water. Not knowing the extent of the damage, I deemed it advisable to shape a course from the Bay of Tunis, where we an chored at 11 p.m, on the 27th of October. By good ob servations on Friday, 0ct.26, the ship's position at noou on - that day was lat. 38.10 N., and long., by chronome ter, 8.48 E., which was further confirmed by Galita bearing by compass S.W. by W., distant about 12 leag. at 2 p.m. Our run front noon on the 26th to the time we struck (viz., 5 a.m, on the 27th) was SE. > S. 53 miles, and S.E. 28 miles, whi c h wou ld pl ace us i n l a t . 37.30 N., and long. 10.16 E.

Her Majesty's ship of the line Albion, Capt. the Hon. J. R. Drummond, who has been actively employed in the Black Sea ever since the nonmencement of the pre sent war, and when serving in the Retribution, took two of the enemy's transports, with troops bound for Kertch, sailed on the 4th, conveying as passengers the Hon. Mr. Drummond, his brother, an invalid, who arrived from England on the day preceding. The Illustrious, 72, Capt. Robert Harris, is the train ing-ship selected for the pupils at Portsmouth. The Hastings, 60, screw blockship, Capt. E. G. Fan shawe, having refitted at Portsmouth, left that harbour for Spithead yesterday morning, and awaits orders for further movements. A court-martial, comprising Capt. Sir Thos. Maitland, C. 8., President ; Captains G. A. Eliott, St. Vincent ; C B. of the J. J. Stoford, of the Calcutta ; G. T.

Greetham, Deputy Judge-Advo cate of the Fleet, assembled yesterday morning on board the flag-ship Victory, in Portsmouth-harbour, to try John West, locomotive engine driver, temporarily em ployed on board her Majesty's screw block-ship Hawke, 60, Capt. Orunianney, for having gone on shore without leave on the 23d October last, from the ship, in the fit ting basin in Portsmouth-harbour, and not returning to the ship until the evening of the 27th, which breach of the regulations of the fleet and the ship was further aggra vated by his leave having been previously stopped by Capt. Ommanney, who prosecuted on this occasion for the Admiralty. The charge was substantiated against the prisoner, who, in defence, admitted his cul pability. The Court adjudged him to be only severely reprimanded, owing to the short time of his serving in the fleet (eight months), and to be mulcted in six weeks' wages. The same Court then proceeded to try George Stevens, a private in the Royal Marine corps, belonging to her Majesty's ship Hawke, but serving on board her gunboat tender the Biter, charged with deserting his post on deck when on sentry, going down into the cabin of the Lieutenant (Warren H. Henderson) in command, and breaking open the locker and stealing therefrom two bottles " of spirits of wine," with which he got drunk. He was also charged with breaking and destroying some articles in the said lieutenant's cabin, and going to sleep on the said lieutenant's bed. The prisoner was further charged with stealing sundry effects, the property of the gunner of the Biter, and with intent to desert from the said vessel. The first charge was declared fully proved, as was the second with the exception of the intention to desert, and the prisoner was sentenced to receiv e 50 lashes on board such one of her Majesty's ships as th e Lords of the Admiralty may direct, and to forfeit allpay and allowances due to him. The Wye steam-vessel, fitted as a water-tank to supply distilled fresh from salt water to the troops in the Cri mea, has at length left Portsmouth for her destination.

The moralsl object of this treatise is to point out the fearful con sequences resulting from certain habits, irregularities, and excesses, ,hich have produced more misery in Youth, degradation in Man .cod, and premature decay at all stages of Life, than, perhaps, any ther class of disease known to modern pathologists. Its perusal is ,srticularly recommended to persons entertaining secret doubts of their physical condition, and who are conscious of having hazardee the health, happiness, and privileges to which every human being is entitled: it is absolutely necessary that all men should know, that there arc irinciples of personal management which cannot be violated without ocurring grievous penalties, and when wisdom and recut succeed he heyday of inconsiderate self-indulgence, how these penalties lay be mitigated, how the sting of their bitterness may be removed, end how the evil and its consequences may be avoided, and above all. :hat there is scarcely any degree of physical infirmity or functional ierangement to which the timely aid of science cannot apply a cure. ene Author has for a series of years been engaged 10 an extensive 'radial in the treatment ol these delicate complaints, which have intortunately teen too generally confided to the care of ignorant empirics, who indict great itkitia on those who are induced to place faith in their pretensions.

The Edinburgh County Militia, now styled " the Queen's Regiment," was, on Wednesday last, paraded at Dalkeith for volunteering, when upwards of 90 men fell out, upwards of 80 of whom have passed and been attested for the Scots Greys, the 25th Foot, and the 72d Highlanders. This regiment has already contributed 275 volunteers to the line, and yet presents a very respectable appearance. About 60 recruits 'have been received within the la , t fortnight. The deputation of the inhabitants of Dalkeith who went to London to complain of the regiment being billetted on the town have received the promise of the War-office that they will be removed forthwith to Edinburgh Castle. The 2d Royal Lanark Militia was inspected a few days ago by Major-General Lord Melville, who expressed himself highly satisfied with the state in which he found the regiment. In the evening the officers gave a grand hall, at which were present—the Duke and Duchess of Hamilton, the Duke of Athol, Lord Melville, &c. On Friday the second volunteerinc , took place, when about 150 men stepped out of the ranks, and 92 were enlisted, making upwards of 180 given since July, of whom more than three-fourths are for the 92d and 72d. This regi ment has now enlisted more than 1,030 men. The buts on Lanark-moor cannot be ready till May, in consequence of the lateness of the season. A detach ment is expected to go to Airdrie. WAREHOUSEMEN AND CLERKS' SCHOOLS -ANNUAL DINNER. The annual dinner in aid of the funds of this valuable charity took place yesterday evening at the London Tavern, under the presidency of Lord John Russell, and was most numerously attended. The great additional number of guests required a complete re-adjustment of the arrangements of the banquet hall, but happily every one was ultimately comfortably seated, and in conse quence of the excellent organisation of the establish ment, every one was also abundantly served and satis fied. The recent uncourteous reception of the noble chairman at the Guildhall seemed to be in every one's mind, and a determination was evinced at an early pe riod of the evening to show his lordship, that whatever might be the hostility which his political conduct had engendered in the breasts of the citizens generally, it was by no means shared by the warehousemen and clerks, who only recognised in their president a man of high station and influence c ming forward to aid by his presence the cause of this infant but valuable and pro mising charity. The noble lord was cheered tremen dously on entering the room, and subsequently at various periods of the evening, when the order of the proceed. ings brought him more prominently before the meeting. Amongst the heads of the warehousing trade who sup• ported his lordship at the head table were Messrs. Geo. Moore, Win. Leaf, J. P. Foster, Watford, Greatorex, George Laurance, W. J. Powell, W. Bradbury, &c. Upwards of two hundred gentlemen sat down to dinner. A musical party under the direction of Mr. Ransford, and comprising the talents of Misses Ransford and Eyles, Messrs. Genge and W. E. Ransford, were in at tendance, and performed a selection of popular music in the course of the evening. L.,rd J. Russell appeared to be in the best health and spirits, and addressed himself to the business of the evening with commendable care and earnestness. The first toast was " The Queen ;" of whom the Chairman said, that many years' experience of her Ma jesty's public and private virtues only served to increase the affectionate attachment of the British people towards their Sover, ign. (Loud cheers.) The next toast was " Prince Albert, the Prince of Wales, and the rest of the royal family." Of the Prince of Wales the Chairman observed that he had reached his fourteenth year, and was now approaching a period of his life when the nation would appreciate the excel lent education he had received. (Hear, hear, and cheers.) Lord J. Russell trusted that in future times his Royal Highness would became an honour to his country, and to those who had had the charge of his education. (Cheers.) The CHAIRMAN again rose to give "The Army and Navy." He said he was then about to give a toast which had often been drunk in time of peace , eith a prophetic anticipation of the services which the army and navy would be ready to perform whenever war should arise. (lieu.) He had now to give it with the assurance that all that could have been expected of our gallant army and navy had been gallantly performed. (Cheers.) They must all bo proud of that army which, being only as numerous as the country could fit out at the first out break of the war, had still at Alma performed the most daring feats, and had carried these positions in three hours which it was expected would have resisted for three weeks. (Cheers.) They would also remember that, when that army bad been reduced by disease and priva tion of every kind—by cold, and want of food, and clothing—they fought the world-famous battle of Joker man, and against six times their number gloriously sus tained the honour of the British flog. (Cheers.) But, however much they might admire the daring of those who fought their battles, he begged to observe that the innate courage and power of discipline that enabled men, day after day, and night after night, to sustain the hard ships of the trenches without the inspiring chance of en countering the enemy face to face, but still in momentary daug-r of his rifles and artillery, was equally worthy of their admiration. (Cheers.) Hewever great might have been the courage of those who, battled in the field, the soldiers of the trenches had also set an example which he hoped might be worthily emulated in future times. (Hear.) They had recently had to rejoice in' the fall of Sebastopol, the object of all these bateiles and perils. That stronghold which heel been supposed to be impreg nable was now the prize of the allied armies, and they had further to rejoice that while the British troops bore the brunt at the battles at Alma and lektr loan, their allies, the French and Sardinians, had won the b a ttl e of the Tchernaya, and finally taken &bast ;poi. He trusted that the union consummated by the aseault on Sebastopol, might be only the pr sage of a long and enduring alliance between the to o countries. (Cheers.) He might, he hoped, be permitted, as one who had long known him, to lament that the gallant spirit of Raglan bad lied before the final triumph had arrived, for he was sure that all the wise measures his departed friend had taken, all the firmness he had displayed, merited the re ward of participating in the final victory. But the examples furnished by men like him would not be lost ; they would be preserved to future generations, and would show in what school England brought up her soldiers, and what pupils the great Duke of Wellington had trained. (Cheers.) With regard to the navy, their gallantry was too well known to require any eulogium from him. It must be a disappointment to them that they had net had an opportunity of meeting the enemy's fleets in hostile array ; bat still, in every operation in which th ey had been engaged, in the Sea of Azuff, and at Kinb aurn, they had displayed all their character i st i c gallantry. an d if ever the enemy should encounter t h em , they wou ld no doubt give as good an account of t h e struggle as th e y had in former times. (Cheers.) With these few words he would propose " The Army and Navy ;" but he could not sit down without alluding to the conduct of our brave allies the Turks at Silistria, and more recently at Kars—where they had shown that, with good officers, they were fit to rank with the first soldiers in the world. (Hear, hear.) Major Woon, as an officer of forty years' standing, returned thanks for the army. Seeing so many ladies in the gallery reminded him of the invaluable services which a lady, Miss Nightingale, had rendered to our sick and wounded soldiers in the East. (Cheers.) The CHAIRMAN in rising to propose the toast of the evening, " Prosperity to the Warehousemen and Clerks Schools," said that it would not be necessary to waste many words in advancing the cause of charity and be nevolence, which was what had brought them together on that evening. He begged leave in a few words to call their attention to the rapid growth of the institution. It appeared that in December, 1853, the first suggestion was made of providing for the orphans and necessitous children of warehousemen and clerks, and in less than six weeks 3,0001. was raised by the young men them seives for the purpose of founding the institution. (" Hear," and cheers.) A short time after, the princi pals, finding that it had been taken up with so much spirit, came forward, and in gifts of 501. or 1001. sub scribed the large total of 4,0001. (Hear, hear.) It ap peared further that after a short time the subscriptions had so much augmented, that after one of their public dinners no less a sum than 10,0001. was funded, an annual income of 1,0001. ascertained, and a balance left at the bankers' of 8301. Fifteen children had already been admitted and six more were about to be elected, making 21 in all, who would be provided for through the exertions of the association. In addition to that, ground had been obtained, and they would shortly have a building of their own for their permanent establish ment. Having stated these facts, he would only say that an institution which had been so auspiciously begun, and which had increased so rapidly, and comprehending so large a class as the warehousemen and clerks of the wholesale dealers of this country, could not long remain without experiencing a very great extension. (Hear , hear.) He expected that in a few years the schools would be largely augmented, and that those who through their industry and talent had become fortunate in the world would not forget to contribute something towards the support of the orphan children of those who had not been so fortunate as themselves—(cheers) —and thus save their comrades that pang which h e believed was the bitterest in life, that of fearing t ha t failing health would oblige them to leave theirchildren who destitute on the world. He appealed tc_l_ thosewould tell them that there was not a were engaged in the business of- life, and . cheering or con solatory reflection than that had helped to maintain institutions like the present by more ey c their ass%tance and charity, (Rear.) They were pre-eminettly the • - , } • ! • ; 1.11 i 11111.1 4, . " # k / 4 <*r [PRICE 4D. STAMPED 5D* working class ; but it was almost a misnomer to call any &ass, in this country in particular, the working class. IThe fact was that in this country of Great Britai n , with some exceptions which were far from numerous, they all belonged to the working classes. (Cheers.) From the Queen on the throne, who devoted some hours every day to concerns affecting the public welfare of her kingdom, down to the humblest labourer at from four or five shil lings a week, and including the ministers, statesmen, merchants, and gentlemen of landed estate who fulfilled their duty, they all belonged to the working classes, and shame to those who did not. (Cheers.) But amongst others, the warehousemen and clerks belonged to the working classes, and their object was consistent. They required not only industry but education and consider able faculties of mind, and it was but fit that those among them who did not attain the same suncess as others should at least have the consolation of thinking that those who had been their fellow-labourers would think of their orphan children after they were gone. The noble lord concluded by repeating the toast, which was re ceived with great cheering. The Rev. Dr. ARCHER gave the health of the chair man, amid loud and repeated cheers. Lord J. RUSSELL said he was not going to make a political speech in return for the very warm manner in which his health had been received. He had no fault to find with people for differing with him in opinion, for of what use was our free constitution, if the people were not to form their opinions from their own views and their own judgment. He could only say, that in all the speeches he had made during the course of his long poli tical life, his only object had been the welfare of the country. (Hear.) He might have been mistaken, but he had always acted to the best of his judgment. (Cheers.) A collection was then made, which amounted on the whole to about 1,7001. THE JERSEY EXILES. THE RIGHTS OF REFUGEES. A public meeting, very numerously attended, was held yesterday evening in St. Ma: tin's Hall, in reference to the above subject and the apprehended Alien Bill ; Mr. E. Miall, M.P., in the chair. The advertisement convening the meeting included another topic, namely; " the present war policy," but as will be seen from the chairman's speech before the commencement of the pro -1 ceedings, it was determined not to introduce that sub ject, and it was evident from the tone of the meeting that had any peace views been put forward, they would have been met with strong opposition. The CHAIRMAN said—G entlemen, a very few words on my part will suffice to put before you the occasion and the objects of the present meeting. You are well aware that in a neighbouring island, under the dominion of the crown of Great Britain, a certain publication was lately issued, containing an address to the Queen, respecting which I feel bound personally to say that neither with the matter nor with the style of that address do I at all sympathise. (Cheers.) The inhabitants of Jersey seemed to have felt it due to their own character to convene a public meeting and disclaim all participation in the sen timents contaiaed in that address. So far I could heartily go with them. But, not content with disclaiming their participation in the sentiments which the document contained, they called for the suppression of the parer in which it appeared, and for the expulsion of the pro prietors of that paper from the island. You are like wise aware that a protest, drawn up by Victor Hugo, and signed by thirty-six of his compatriots, was pub lished in some of the London journals against this arbitrary mode of dealing with the liberty of speech supposed to belong to political refugees in this country. It is not necessary for me—nor is it necessary for this meeting—to discuss the propriety of that docu ment, or of any of the statements which it may contain ; but this meeting has been convened for the purpose of defending from all eacroachment the right of sanctuary wbich Great Britain has maintained from ancient times. (Cheers.) The subscribers to the document I have men tioned have been forcibly deported from the island of Jersey. Twenty-two of them, I believe, have taken up their abode in Guernsey, and the rest have come to England. This expUlsion, if we are rightly informed, has taken place through a demand made upon the Lieu tenant-Governor of Jersey by our own Government at home, and—unless report and rumour sadly belie the occasion—at the instigation of a neighbouring potentate. (Mingled cheers and hisses.) If this were simply an iso lated act, the consequences of which would end with the occasion, it would still he worthy of calling forth the indignant protest of the people of England. (Bear.) But we are led to believe—especially by correspondents of the daily journals who reside in foreign capitals—that this act foreshadows an intended policy —(t ear) —that there is to ho a pressure laid upon our own Government by f 'reign courts, and a pressure brought to bear by that Government upon the houses of parliament for the re• enactment of an alien bill for this country. (A. Voice— "We wont have it.") What may be the intended pre , visions of that measure—if, indeed, it be-contemplated by the Government—it is of course impossible for us to do more than conjecture ; but of this we may be certain, that the object of it will be to restrict the liberty which is now enjoyed by political refugees in this country, and to give them less freedom than is possessed by every British subject. Now, the simple object of this meeting is to protest at once, and indignantly, against both the past and the future—(cheers)—against the expulsion of the refugees from Jersey without charge, without proof, withouCtrial—(hear, hear) —and also against the enact msnt of, or any attempt to enact, an alien bill for politi cal exiles. We not only object to that which has been done, but we shall, I trust, enter to-night our emphatic protest against that which is inteeded to be done. (Hear.) We claim on behalf of political exiles in this country the right of asylum, and we claim it on the simple ground that they are political exiles ; their misfortunes suffice to secure ( ur sympathy, and (sight to suffice to obtain our protection. (Hear, hear.) We ask nothing about the politics which they profess ; we want not to know what may be the political party in their own country to which they were attached. We would make no distinction what ever between prince and plebeian— (cheers) we would give the right of sanctuary to all who touch these shores. (Hear.) Hitherto we have been impartial enough in the distribution of our fevours. We have sheltered, under the name of Louis Napoleon, the man who now occupies the imperial throne of France—(cheers and hisses)—and we have odened our arms to a fugitive monarch under the name of John Smith. (llear, and laughter.) We have had here, under the protection of our laws, and enjoying British liberty—doing according to their own pleasure, so long as they only kept themselves within the limits prescribed by the law of the land—we have had Or:eanists and fusionists, royalists and republicans, and our national hospitality has given a welcome to them al'. We have cherished him whom the Times bite recently called, quite in opposition to its ordinary tone in reference to that individual, " the illustrious Magyar, Kossuth"— (cheers) —and wo have also given the shelter which he sought to Mazzini. (Cheers.) We have not thought it necessary to inquire whether these men's political views were in ac cordance with our own ; it has sufficed for u 3 that they were, from political causes, exiles from their own country; their misfortunes were a sufficient passport to our protec tion. This is what we claim for the Jersey refugees. (Cheers.) This is what we claim for exiles in all coining times ; and we will not abate ono jot of our national hospitality at the bidding of any. (Much cheering.) And we claim this right of sanctuary without any diminution. (Hear, bear.) We would that those who come to our shores shall be welcome to the full enjoyment of British liberty, and not merely that they shall come heie to be secured in a gaol. We must have no registration of foreigners who have fled from their country from politi cal causes. We must have no surveillance of the police. (Cheers.) We will not put the freedom of these people in the hands of any Minister of the Crown ; we wish them to be partakers of our own privileges ; we assert for them that whatever a British subject may do in con formity with British law, that also shall they be able to do who appeal to us for our national hospitality ; and, gentlemen, we claim and extend this hospitality to exiles at any and every cost. (Hear, hear.) We have so long maintained and cherished the right of sanctuary in this country—it has been so uniform and so constant a practice, whether of our sovereigns or of the people, to people of Engitahnedwrathwi:: give a secure asylum to those who have fled for refuge to this country on account of political offences, that it has become, as it were, part and parcel of our own con stitution. We have hold of this right as the proudest boast of Britons in the face of the nations of Euro s p ni e; we have stood by it even when it has been assailed,_ by times by the whispers of calumny, and sometimessb will creatures of foreign courts—and I hope this me etin gwhatmay, they as one man and protest that, ? hall conti nue been s constitu tion to be touched, but that which anyni s t r e e r s , pe did ct h iMn a i re ear to they will not allow this feature of outretaohnmacit ancient nue to be.

(Hear, and marks of disapproba tion.) We may be told that the request has been made by foreign courts to an English Minister that the right of asylum may be abridged in this country, because when enjoyed to the full extent it is a practical inconve nience to cert a i n governments.

Instead of lowering ministers in the face of Europe. by taking this stand, we should, I believe, gain vastly in their estimation. It is not by yielding everything at' the request of friends who may be mistaken respecting our character and our conduct that we shall secure respect from surrounding nations ; it is by shoe ing them that we value the libertienwhich ss• have bought with our blood, and that whether it be an open foe, or whether it be a neighbouring friend, we in• " tend to maintain those liberties inviolate. Gentlemen, I feel it necessary to say before I sit down that the an nouncement of this meeting, at which I had already con- • vented to take the chair, did not appear to me to be in exact accordance with the object which it was sought to accomplish—that object being to maintain intact the right of political exiles to all the freedom of a British subject. But, the announcement having been made, I felt that it would be cowardly in me, more especially as my sentiments are not in accordance with those of the war party,.to withdraw from the post which had been kindly offered to me. After conversing, however, with those who convened the meeting, I find that, whatever may be their opinions respecting the war, they believed, equally with myself, that the object for which we are • met is so important, so sacred, and fraught with such consequences to numbers who now enjoy the right of asylum in this country, and whose enjoyment of itseeme to be threatened by the intended policy of the Ministers —they, I say, equally with myself, believe that that ob ject should stand out clearly, distinctly, and separate ff . ( to all others—and therefore it is upon that subject alone that the suffrag es of this large meeting will be taken. (Hear, hear.) e I need not, gentlemen, enforce upon you the vast importance of conducting the proceed. ings of the meeting to its close with perfect order. I am certain that every one in this assembly will feel with rue how greatly the moral power and influence of what is done here will be increased by both the speakers and the audience keeping within the limits of decorum, and I feel perfectly sure that you are all so united in sentiment that the proposition about to be submitted to you will be adopted unanimously. lam glad to be able to convey to you the information that this is not the only meeting on this subject that is being held to-night. Newcastle is at this moment engaged in the Elaine good work that we are—(cheers)—and I believe that within a short time all the towns in England which profess to have any ambition to sustain inviolate and untouched the liberties of this country will be proud to follow our example. (Cheers.) Mr. W. Wiese then read—not without eliciting some marks of disapprobation—the following letter : " Midhurst, Nov. 7, 1855. "My dear Sir,—l cannot, lam sorry to say, take a part in your demonstration against the arbitrary treatment of M. Victor Hugo and his brethren in exile. But, although distance from town and other engagements prevent mefrom being present, I sympathise very cordially with the pro moters of the meeting. Surely such proceedings as that which you are meeting to protest against ought to open the eyes of at least that part of the public which is supporting the war from a sympathy with liberalism abroad, as to the gross delusion that has been practised on their credulity by those who have told them that in the hands of our present Government the war in which we are engaged is a struggle for liberty. Depend on it the tendency, both at home and abroad, ever since the peace of Europe was broken, has been the very reverse ; and give us but a few years more of war, and we shall find ourselves retrograding to the dark • political doings of Sidmouth's evil days.—And believe me faithfully yours, "R. COBDEN." Mr. WILICS also read letters from Mr. C. Gilpin, Mr. G. Thompson, Mr. P. A. Taylor, and Mr. G. Holyoake, each expressing sympathy with he Jersey refugees. He then moved the following resolutions : " That this meeting utters its indignant protest against the recent expulsion of refugees from Jersey; and affirms that foreigners landing in the dominion of the British Crown become at once entitled to the natural and legal rights of Engli.hman, public examination and trial by jury before exposure to any renal consequences. - " That this meeting pledges itself and calls upon the country to resist, by all lawful means, the apprehended attempt to carry through Parliament an act invalidating or restricting the right of sanctuary." After some general remarks of an historical character, he observed that if they wished to kno w who was the author of the recent expulsion, they must consider whom it was'most likely to benefit, and no one could doubt that this was Louis Napoleon. (Hear.) If, again, they applied Shakspere's test that men hated those whom they had injured, that teat pointed in the same direction- It they were asked whom had the refugees wronged I it might be answered that they had written no sentence for which any minister dare bring them into an English court. They wro'e a chapter of history; that was all. Louis Napoleon was, however, the enemy of histo r y. Ever since the second Bartholomew he had been angry with history, and he called for expulsion because men simply stated the events of a given day in a given year. The speaker was then proceeding to express his regret that the refugee question had not been combined with the war question ; but, being met with unmistakeable symptoms that any remarks in opposition to the war with Russia would be decidedly unpalatable to the ma jority of the meeting, he absta'ned from attempting to enlarge on that topic. Mr. ERNEST JONES seconded the resolution. He ob served that the meeting stood upon the common ground of opposition to any infringement of the rights of refu gee,. It was composed of members of the peace party and members of the war party. He himself belonged to the latter, and though he did not entirely approve of the manner in which the war had been conducted, he was for letting the war itself go on. (Cheers.) The course of events connected with the recent expulsion was very re markable. A. letter having been written by three indi viduals, the Attorney-General of Jersey, on being con sulted, gave it as his opinion that it.. publication was not illegal, and that its authors could not be successfully prosecuted in the Jersey court=. It was then attempted to apply Lynch law to the refugees, and when this at tempt failed in consequence of their gallant defence, and when they had written a letter protesting against the infringement of their liberty, they were expelled by the . British Government. Why were they expelled 1 They "had not fitted out a ship with arms, and landed at Bou logne, to make war against an ally of Eneland. (Hear.) Neither had they been closetted with an enemy of Eng land, like Prince Adelbert of Prussia, who was now fight ing at the head of a Russian regiment in the Crimea, after having been received within the precincts of Ba'- moral. An experiment was now being tried in the case of refugees, and if they allowed the passing of an alien bib against foreigners ere long a gagging bill would be passed against themselves. (Hear, hear.) He rejoiced in the French alliance, but in order that it might be per rnanen4, it must be an alliance with the peopleof France. When the French people were free I a they would be etc long, they w.iuld inquire how Englishmen had acted towards thorn in the hourof trial, and whether the had given fair play to French exiles. (Hoar, hear.) While, on the one hand, they did not go to war with Louis Napoleon, on the other they should not go to war on their own history and their own honour. (Hear, hear.) Let them seek less to ally themselves with Francis Joseph, and more with IC - south ; less with Bombs, and more with Mazz ni ; less with Letals Napoleon and more with those femous exiles who had never tarnished their fame. The resolution was then put and carried, there being only one dissentient ; and The CLIAIRMAN having declared this to be the termi natiou of the proeeedirgi, the meeting, after giving a vote of thanks to the hon. gentleman himself, dispersed. The whole of the proceAings occupied loss th an two hours. '------ Wednesday ANOTHER MURDER NEAR MOATE.—On W last a respectable man, named Robert Clarke, who was employed as steward and gatekeeper at Ballinderry, within one mile of Moato, was proceeding to the latter place, 1, hen he got into a dispute, and was attacked by a nuitil2er of peasantry with stones. His skull was frac tured on the occasion, an d he died shortly alter. Hi, remains wero brought to B allinasloe for interment on Friday night. The sad o ccurrence, observes the local paper, is not connected with local disturbances. THE DWELLINGS OF THE PEOPLE.—At the W est Brampton Mutual Improvement Society, on Friday, th e 2d inst. a lecture on " The Homes of the P e i ~, delivered by Mr. G. Godwin.
