Every blanch of legitimate banking businesi win be comprehended within the scope of its operations. Accounts, both current and on deposit, will be releived, and in terest allowed. Divi.lends, annuities.,pay of officers, military, naval, and civil, and other sources c f income, will be received for customers ; purchases. sales, and transfers in the publ e funds and other stocks, will be effected, and circular notes of credit issued. yhe safe custody •f title-deeds and securities belonging to customers, with convenient access, will form a prominent feature in the arrangements of the Bank; '1 lie grounds which justify the establishment of this Bank must he sufficiently obvious. The soundness of the j not stock principle, its adaptation to modern modes of business, the accommodation it affords, and the security which it presents, have commended the system to the judgment of the gre at middle class of society, whose aggregate deposits corm the bulk of toe floating capital lodged in the ti ands of the banking interest ; the increasing patronage which has been consequently extended to Joint-Stock Banks has led to an inconvenient augmentation of business in many of those establish ments, urgently demanding further Banking accommodation. The period selected for this step is particulary opportune; trade and commerce being diverted from many ordinary channels by the untoward state of our political relations, capital naturally seeks for investment where it will be free from that depression and those flu - tuations to which it is liable at such a period. The Joint-Stock Banks have been rendered accordingly available for the sate de posit of unemployed capital, and will probably fot some time to come continue to reap considerable advantages from this state of things; while, should peace happily be secured, the activity result ing from release of capital, and renewed commercial enterprise, will afford a legitimate and profitable exercise for the operations of Banking. The following statement of the present market price of the leading Joint-Stock Bank Shares, and the Dividends upon each respectively, affords the most c,laclusive evidence that ample room exists for the profitable employment of capital in this branch of business:— Amount Market Present Increase in Rate per Name of Bank. paid up Valae per Value of Cent. of per Capital, Dividend Share .

(From the Times of this day.) . - A number of concurrent circumstances unite at this moment to call public attention to the sale and pur chase of commissions in the army. Our troops are fight ing by side with the French, suffering the same hardships, participating in the same dangers, but not animated by the hope of the same rewards. The ex traordinary disasters and miseries they have . suffered have led them and their friends in England to inquire into the manner in which that service is filled to which is intrusted the custody of so many precious lives. Thinking men also seem to have come with marvellous unanimity to the conclusion that the strict line of sepa ration which divides the Indian from the English service ought, to be broken down, and that the talents of a Mayne, an Outram, or an Edwardes, should no longer be withheld by a silly exclusivenesss from serving in other fields than those of India or Affgbanistan. But the Indian service is a service of seniority, and cannot be amalga mated with our own, except through the abolition of the system of purchase. The promotion, also, of so many ser jeants for meritorious conduct to the rank of ensign has induced men to consider how questionable is the benefit which such promotion implies, and to doubt whether placing these gallant soldiers in contact with gay and expensive young men, to live upon pay quite inadequate for the position they have to support, and with little hope of further promotion, - from the want of the means of purchase, be not a cruel kindness, and a benefit carrying with it many of the attributes of an injury. All these causes have combined to fix popular attention on this subject, and to occasion meetings such as that re cently assembled at Newcastle to beheld for the purpose of demanding that the obnoxious privilege of purchase shall be swept away. . We trust that this may be regarded as a symptom of the gradual awakening efthe publio -mind..toythe meetta, sity of the substitution of merit for every other criterion, net only inthe army and navy, but in every other branch of the public service. The first dawning of this neces sity in the public mind has manifested itself with some inconsistency, since, whatever be the evils of purchase in the army, they are, no doubt, less than those of job bery, which, under the name of patronage, pervades every public department, withholds the most powerful stimulus from education, and deprives the public service of that amount of talent which it might command. Nor are we without apprehension that, when the advocates of the existing system in the army come to employ argu ment in answer to the objections that are popularly urged against purchase, there will be many who, per plexed by the intricacy of the subject, and dazzled by the array of authority and the amount of specious sophistry that can be brought to bear upon it, will dis trust their first convictions, and, feeling they have ven tured out of their depth, renounce the attempt to form or support an opinion ; yet in the matter of sale and purchase of commissions, as in so many others which trench on the boundaries of the science of political eco nomy, the popular and superficial view is the correct one, and the most refined analysis only brings us round to The conclusions of unassisted common sense. A little reasoning seems to support the system of purchase—a little more effectually demolishes it. The arguments in favour of purchase all assume as their basis the pre-existence of a system of seniority, and derive their force from the necessity of remedying the in tolerable abuses to which the unmitgated system of seni ority, as we have it in the Engineer and Artillery Corps, gives rise. Seniority has in it a certain degree of fairness, since it is the fate of all men, noble or plebeian, rich or poor, to grow old, but it buys this single advantage at the expense of every ether defect to which a criterion of promotion can be liable. For the first twenty years of military service increased age may be some indication of increased efficiency, but after that period this congruity gradually ceases, till every year that is added to the age of the officer detracts from his utility, and seniority declares him fit for the highest command just when the inexorable hand of time has stripped him of his last qualification for any. Besides, seniority, by annexing the highest rewards to the longest service, strengthens the inducement to continue in the army after health, strength, and faculties have failed, thus keeping down rising merit, and applying the strongest incentives to old men to undertake duties which they cannot fulfil. It is a vivid perception of these enormous evils which has induced mankind to be take themselves to the system of purchase, as involving, with all its absurdity and injustice, a less practical mis chief than seniority ; and certainly, if the alternative lies wholly between the two, we shall not be disposed to doubt the wisdom of the selection. In favour of purchase it may truly be said that it places com missions in the hands of men of easy circumstances, bound by the ties of property and relationship to the upper classes; thus, even in the ranks of our army itself causing the feeling of the citizen to predomi nate over that of the soldier, arid securin4 us from the dread which all free Governments have instinctively felt of the mercenary leaders of a hireling soldiery. Neither can it be denied that by offering a ready retreat from the army to those whose health is unequal to its fatigues, or whose taste points out to them other walks of life, the system of purchase tends to relieve the service of much that is useles and incapable, arid to attract men into it by the very facility of getting out of it. We are anxious not to uirdwritate these advantages, because we are a gate that in military circles to dispute the excellence of sale and purchase is often regarded as the result of a one-sided and careless consider ition ; but, giving full weight to these advantages, we do not hesitate to say that the evils of the system of purchase far preponderate over its benefits, and make its abolition absolutely requi site to the consolidation of our army and the regeneration of our military strength. We believe that the assumption that there is no alternative between purchase and seni ority is fallacious ; and that in war with much ease, and in peace without insurmountable difficulties, a system of promotion by merit might be devised which would super sede both the one and the other. The service of a man who purchases his commission is gratuitous, for his pay is but the interestof his perchase•money ;'.and this:country, rich as it is, cannot aff or d t o be gratuitously served. Purchase is but a rude expedient for removing the in capable and promoting the able, since able men may find it their interest to sell out, and inefficient men be induced to buy in. It banishes poor men relying on merit alone from the army, or condemns them, if they enter it, to a career of perpetual disappointment and discouragement. It deters from enlistment, and unduly lowers the private soldier, by withholding from his best efforts the prospect of advancement. It deprives the officer of all inducement to study and improvement, and encourages a low tone of feeling, by the habitual pre ference of money to merit; it makes our officers regard themselves rather as annuitants than as soldiers, and visits with the heaviest penalties the gallant loss of lite on the field of battle. These things we have left our selves no space to exp!ain now, but we propose to eluci date them and their effects on the mixed system of pur chase and seniority in the English army on a future occasion. TREE NEW MINISTRY. (From the Morning Hermld of this day.) We are now fairly under the rule of the new Ministry. Nobody anticipates for it any lengthened duration ; some allowing it a few weeks, others a few months, of life ; but something like a fair trial it will undoubtedly have. There are three aspects in which the Palmerston Mi nistry may be ♦iewed. In the first point of ♦iew, it strikes the mind favourably; in the second, doubtfully; in the third, as most objectionable and full of danger. We will devote a few moments to each. 1. The new Cabinet has one feature which gives it a great advantage over the Ministry which it succeeds. It is more of one mind and of one class. It is more purely Whig. It has thrown eff the peril and the de filement of the Free-trade-Tractarian sect commonly known as "the Peelites." Hence it will not excite the alarm and jealousy which was so often aroused, within the last two years, by the Gladstones and Sidney Her berts, whenever any Church question sprung up. Neither will it be imperilled by the internal intrigues or the l ex ternal unpopularity of these now defunct politicians..llbemore all these respects the Palmerston Ministry will likely to last than the Cabinet which preceded it. 2. In the second point of view we can only speak doubtfully. Lord Aberdeen and hi s friends carried on the war with Russia as if it we re a quarrel which they had accidentally got into, and out of which they hop e d to emerge in the course f a few weeks. They sent out an expedition, it is true ; but Mr. Gladstone told th e Housaof Commons that he had provided for its trans port out, and transport home, all in the current year ! And accordingly many of the officers, imbued with the War-office spirit, gave their friends hopes of seeing them back again before Christmas--the Christmas of 1854! Now this was not making war wisely, for it was not making war in earnest. Whatever Government chooses to declare war against Russia ought to mature its plans for a seven years' struggle. So great and unassailable and proud an empire will not be brought to succumb in one or two campaigns. Does any one seriously think that the conquest of the Crimea would bring Nicholas upon his knees ? Let such au one ask himself what would be En.:land's feeling if she heard that a Russian army had landed in Inverness and had o verrun s i x of the northern countie s o f S co tland ? Would the gene ral Would ' voice b e f or p eace —f ur su b m i ss i on ? it not rather be fur first driving the Muscovites out of the country, before a word was listened to about peace ? And we ought to give the arrogant Czar credit fur quite as much pride and stubbornness as we ourselves should show if we were the invaded and he the invader. Our doubt, then, as t' the character of the new Cabinet is this—Whether it Las so entirely for,aken the policy and tone of thinking observable in Lcrd Aber deen's Government as to have laid its plans and taken its measures for a long war. If it has not done this—if it still dreams of bringing Russia to submission by such feats as we have already witnessed in the Baltic and the Black Sea, then we can only forbode for our country the lam en t a bl e f u t ure o f wasted treasures, The sacrificed e i d s Armies, and resultless campaigns. already indelibly inscribed in our annals ya s e on r e of loss, disgrace, and shame. But if the policys as 1.854 is not I utterly changed we shall have to l oo k back, in the next APPETITE AND DIGESTION IMPROTED.

One more aspect remains, and that is one concern ing which no doubt can exist. The crisis being one of peril, the first duty of the Premier was to select the ablest man for his Administration that could possibly be found. In doing so it would necessarily happen that rank and family would be less regarded, and talent and force of mind more though of than in Cabinets brought together in the calm and halcyon days of peace. But has this been the case ? So far from it—so far from properly appreciating the real nature of his position. —Lord Palmerston has imperilled the whole aristocracy of England by absurdly and most hazardously composing his Cabinet of one alone. We do not believe that since "Ministries" and " Cabinets" were first heard of in England there ever was seen such a Cabinet of lords as the present. Let us simply pass them in review : Premier Lord Chancellor Lord President Lord Privy Seal Duke of Argyll. Postmaster-General Foreign Secretary War Secretary Lord Panmuro. Colonial Secretary Home Secretary Earl Grey. First Lord of the Admiralty Sir C. Wood, brother-in law to Earl Grey. Chancellor .of the Exchequer Sir G. C. Lewis, brother. in-law to Lord don. Claren- Woods and Forest.; Sir W. Molesworth. Grand papa, The twelfth, who is, after all, of Lord Molesworth's family, is the solitary one among the whole who is neither a lord, nor the brother-in-law or cousin of a lord. A tingle " philosophical Radical" is the sole re presentative in the Cabinet of the Commons of England. He is the "pennyworth of bread" to this " monstrous quantity of sack." But is this even commonly prudent! Is it fair to the aristocracy of England ? We, as Conservatives, are na turally chary of th e i r r i g ht s and of their interests. But no reasonable friend of the aristocracy would willingly see them put forward as monopolisers of all the power and influence of the state ; more especially would he like to see this at a moment when storms and tempests were impending, and when the loftiest pinnacles were likely to be the most exposed to the lightning's flash. • This is a grave and fearful mistake of Lord Palmer ston's. He may be "jaunty and gay," and may suit very well for a fine-weather cruise ; but we doubt his capacity for the task he has Laken in hand. And, first of all, we tell him that in thus filling his Cabinet with lords, and lords only, he is carrying too much sail for such stormy weather as we are likely soon to encounter. THE MINISTRY OF TITLES. (From the Morning Advertiser of this day.) We yesterday showed that, out of the fourteen mem bers composing the Palmerston Cabinet, not fewer than ten were lords. We might have added, that the remain ing four were also men of title, each of them being a baronet. Their names are—sir George Grey, Sir Charles Woed, Sir William IVlolesworth, and Sir George Corns wall Lewis. So that here was a new Cabinet, which we had hoped would have had much less in it of the aristocratic element than any of its predecessors—which consisted solely of men of title. Yesterday a new mem ber was added to it, without a title. We allude to Mr. Vernon Smith, who has been appointed President of. the Board of Control. We have now, therefor; a Cabinet consisting of ten lords, four baronets, and •ne plain Mr. But one untitled member to fourteen members, with the prefixes of Lord or Sir to their names, will not render inapplicable the designation we have given to the Pal merston Administration of the Ministry of Titles. We are almost sorry that, since the new Cabinet was to be so aristocratic in its composition, there should have been one plain Mr. in it. since, however, Lord Palmerston, had made up his mind to disturb the aristocratic unity of his Cabinet, it is right we should tell his lordship, that he could not have made a more unfortunate selection than he has done in the person of Mr. Vernon Smith. He is a man of no mark whatever. He has an overweening opinion of himself, which often leads him to exhibit an arrogant and petulant manner ; but that is not the only feature in his character. He has no weight either in the House o'r out of it. He is a poor, feeble, wordy speaker, while he has no pretensions to any grasp of mind. Even the adelition. of another Lord to the Palmerston Cabinet would not have been more damaging than the reception into it of one so ill conditioned and so conceited as Mr. Vernon Smith. We stated on Monday, in alluding to the rumour that be was to receive the Presidency of the Board of Control, that the thing was too ridiculous to be believed. And as a proof that such was the prevalent opinion, we may mention that it was difficult to convince people last night that ho had actually received the appointment. Never was an appointment more generally or more strongly condemned. We deeply regret the sad work which Lord Palmer ston has made in trying his 'prentice hand at Cabinet making. He has given us not only the most aris tocratic Administration of which we have any example in the history of the country, but he has constructed his Government of the very worst aristocratic materials he could have selected. And, as if that had not been suflieiently damaging to him as Premier, be has singled out the most unpopular and most unfit man with the plain prefix of Mr. to his name whom he coal have eleeem, for the only office in his Government which was not filled ley a person of title. But, while we deeply deplore, on Lord Palmerston's owu account, and especially on that of the country, tha unfertunate composition of his Cabinet, it is right that we slimMl render him the justice to which he is entitled. W e have said 011 several previous uceasions that he was not. a free agent. We reptat the statement. Lord Palmerston is in fetters even at tee very moment at which we write. H e i e su bj ect to a constant pressure ; and teat pressure comes from a quarter where, of all others, it might be least expected. Will it believed that, of all non in the world, the Marquis of Lansdowne should be the party who has, from the first, so greatly hampered Lord Palmerston in the construction of his Cabinet? It will be remembered that we stated, ten days ago, that it was to the veto which Lord Lansdowne put on Lord Shaftesbury to a seat in the Cabinet, that the country has to ascribe the loss of the services of the latter able and excellent nobleman,—one who would have given great strength, from his high character, to the Adrc.inistration of Lord Palmerston. And it is to the Marquis of Lansdowne that the country owes the misfortune of having so many incompetent persons in the new Government. He is, in truth, the real architect of the Governmental edifice which has just been erected. He has for the last few weeks been a sort of dictator in Cabinet affairs,—a Lord Paramount in all matters appertaining to Ministerial appointments. He takes up, during a considerable portion of each day, his quarters in Brookes's Club, and there dictates to Lord Palmer ston who should and who should not be appointed to places in the Government. What we blame Lord Palmerston for is, that he submits to this dictation, — that he consents to be the mere instrument of Lord Lansdowne's pleasure, and by that means acquiesces in the latter nobleman's virtually performing the functions of Premier. Why does not Lord Palmerston make a bold and manly resistance to this dictation 3 If he will only so, and throw himself on the country, he will thereby make himself, as we remarked the other day, the most popular and most powerful Minister of modern times. STATE OF TRADE. MANCHESTER, Feb. 27.—Some few of the cloth houses report rather more business, but the general accounts are that the depression is unabated, and that but a small aggregate trade has been done t•-day. Prices have still a downward tendency, and the general opinion is that with the present production they must continue to give way. The yarn-market has also been very flat, but the irregularity has been so great for some weeks past that is is difficult to say whether prices have been taken which are lower than the quotations previously touched. In most kinds of yarn it is safe to say that the tendency is in favour of buyers. The recent failure of one old established house, though not large in amount, has created a good deal •f gloom and uneasiness. As this was a commission house, a good deal of speculation has also arisen out of the stoppage as to how far ere• ditors will be affected by a recent decision of Baron Parke's, in which it was held that the payment of an account to a commission house did not bar the right of the seller to recover. The breaking up of the frost will, it is believed, lead to rather more business in the home trade, and already there has been a diminution in tho applications for relief from handloons weavers (in com mon with other classes of workpeople) to the parish authorities of Manchester. In some of the surrounding districts the handloosa weavers are suffering more that any other class of operatives, a single firm in one place having discharged as many as 500 of these weavers, whose poverty is such that their employers have had t• step in with advances to prevent the looms in their cote tages being seized for rent. Of the cloth-market Messrs. John Slagg and Co. say :—" The market continues heavy and depressed, and the day's business is quite of a trifling amount. There is a conviction among buyers that so long as the present production is kept up there will be a gradual decline in prices, and there is a general dispo sition on their part to keep out of the market as long as possible. We cannot, however, quote any actual de cline since this day week ; but there is an increasing difficulty in disposing of goods at the current prices, and occasional sales are made somewhat below t h em."
