yet we are not surprised to find it made a subject of cavil and misrepresentation by the ignorant and the malevolent. " The determination of the Bank to issue small notes," says a misleading 3 - marital, 44 produced a scene of extraordinary agitation." We can only say we were on 'Change at the time alluded to ; we heard the fact very generally mentioned ; and we perceived no agitation at all. Some persons, from the time that has elapsed since the former circulation of these notes, were not immediately aware of the legal footing on which they stood ; some supposed that the issue of then] could only take place under the authority of an Order in Council ; While others thought that their issue was in itself a suspension of cash payments. To obviate these misconceptions, it maybe proper to state briefly the changes which the 'law respecting Notes below Five Pounds has undergone. Prior to the year 1777, any person might have issued a promissory note for any amount ; but in that year a statute was passed (17 Geo. 111. c,>30.) by which the negociation'of promissory notes for twenty shillings, or any sum between that and five pounds, was prohibited. — In 1797 the Bank of England was prohibited from paying any of its notes, of whatever amount in cash ; and in the same year the prohibition of issuing small notes was suspended, until the Bank of England should resume cash payments, and the Bank of England as well as li the Country Bankers thus became entitled to issue One or Two Pound Notes if they thought fit. In 1821 (after some preliminary measures) an Act was passed to per mit the Bank of England to pay its Notes in Gold (stat. 1 and 2 Geo. IV. c. 6) and in 1822 another 'Act was passed, authorising the issue of One or Two Pound Notes till the sth of January 1833. In point of fact the Bank of England continued to issue notes of this de scription till sometime in 1822, when they withdrew them for their own convenience, and by their own voluntary act. They now again issue them by an act equally voluntary. It was said that the Governor and Deputy Governor had an interview with Lord Liverpool previously to the issue, and on that occasion they probably informed the Noble Earl of the intention of the Bank, which we have no doubt received from his Lordship an entire approbation. [MORNING CHRONICLE.] We regret to say, that to the list of towns, which have been agitated by Bank stoppages, must be added Birmingham, in which one out of the six establishments came to a stand on Satur day last. A Meeting of the principal Inhabi tants took place on the same day. That town, ac cording to letters we have seen, was, as may easily be conceived, in a most agitated state throughout Saturday, especially in the evening. Itis, however, so much the interest of manufacturer; and others, who employ workmen in such neighbourhoods as Birmingham, to exert themselves to support the credit of existing establishments, that we have no doubt confidence will soon be restored. It is but justice to the other Banking Houses of that place to say, that from information we received, the event in question has been some time ex pected by us. We are glad to see that every where the greatest exertions are made by the influential inhabitants to allay apprehensions, and to prevent that destruction of confidence, which would involve all in one common ruin. We can picture to ourselves no greater calamity than a general stoppage of payments, which for a time would throw the manufacturing population out of employment ; for it is impossible to conceive that manufacturers can go on paying thousands every week, if they receive no returns of their bills. At the same time,we must say, that the barefaced way in which it is avowed in the different provincial papers, that Banks have been obliged to suspend payments from having their property locked up in mortgages, reflects great disgrace on us as a nation. If this had been the first, or the second, or the third time, even within a few years, that Bankers, and through them the public, had suf fered from so glaring a deviation from the princi ples of banking, as the lending money on mort gages or other long-winded and unmanageable se curities, there would be some excuse for us ❑ow, but the nation has been convulsed over and over again in this way, and yet the moment the pressure is over, wego on without profiting in the least from our former experience. A journalist who knowing the besetting sin of his countrymen, and yet is afraid of aggravating the evil of want of confi dence by his remarks, is placed in a very disagree able predicament at the present moment. We are almost certain that the present lesson will be thrown away on us, as former lessons have been, and that the moment the pressure is over, the combination of interested individuals will again prevail over the public as it has always hitherto prevailed. The whole system of country bank ing in England is rotten to the core ; but it is so connected with people of influence in the several districts, that we fear Ministers will be again forced by the Country Gentlemen and Bankers, to abandon their designs for placing the business on a secure footing. [BRITISfi PRESS.) Last night we - received the Eroile dated Satur day, with the other Paris Papers of Friday; they supply us with no political intelligence of im portance. The French politicians, of all parties, seed] to be agreed in considering the financial • operations of M. de Villele as the leading cause of the' late panic in the Money Market both of England and France. His friends applauded his sagacity to the skies for having so dexterously availed himself of the critical moment to carry bis plans into effect, while his opponents, in terms equally unmeasured, condemn him for having recourse to so culpable an arti fice; to the prejudice of those public creditors -who relied on the faith of Government. The disputants on each side are alike in error. M. de Villele, certainly, had nothing to do with the produCtion or the ruinous alarm which originated in this country, and affected the French funds as being a smaller mass of the same kind as our own, and therefore, in price, dependentupon them. We even doubt much whether he foresaw the crisis which Was approaching. Many better versed " than he in the mysteries of stock-jobbing knew nothing of the impending storm till it burst over their heads. The prices on the Paris Stock Exchange on Friday indicated what is called firm. 'less, in the jargon of Capel-court. The sub scription for General Foy's family amounted to. upwards of 470,000 francs, almost 19,0001. ster ling. The Etoile says, that the Attorney-General has finished his report concerning the transactions of M. Ouvrard. Nothing is stated as to the in tended proceedings. The conference between the Duke del Infautado and the Foreign Ministers are reprsented to be frequent and earnest ; but no one could guess what was the nature or would be the result of Ahem. The only business in which progress is made in Spain is that of the hangman. No changes impede the regular execution of his functions. The Madrid Gazette announces that four soldiers belonging to the Constitutional army were hanged at Grenada on the 25th of last month, for having barbarously murdered some• prisoners whom they had to guard. The Jour nal des Debuts states that the offence for which really these men suffered, was their having ar rested some Royalists during the days of the constitution, by order of their officers. A few such judgments as this would place the soldiery in a very perilous predicament : if they obey the orders of their officers they are hanged for so doing the next political change; if they refuse,they are forthwith shot for mutiny. The Greeks, it appears by the advices from Zante, made, on the 13th ult. a gallant sortie from Missolonghi, under Karaiskaki, and after penetrating to the rear of Redschid Paella's army, returned into the town with 1800 prisoners. ThelCapitan Pacha was on his way to Missolonglii when his exploit was per.. formed. Miaulis was following with the Greek fleet. [THE PUBLIC LEDGER.] fr We learn from the Brussels Papers, that mer cantile couriers are continually passing through that city, between Paris, Amsterdam, and Ilam burgh. They also contain a new and striking instance of the firmness with which the Govern ment of the Netherlands perseveres in its im proved plan of religious instruction. The . stu dents of the college of Thielt—an establishment formed according to the monastic rules of school discipline—have received orders to quit, before the end of this month, because the Professors have refused to submit to the new regulations.— The students, who amount to about 350, will, it is said, for the most part abandon their studies, and return to agricultural pursuits ; by which change, neither the State nor themselves will lose any thing ; for, instead of becoming, in all pro bability, bad Ecclesiastics, they are likely to be come good farmers. All the furniture of the College is to be immediately sold by auction ; and when so cautious a Govkrnment proceeds in this decisive manner to root up old abuses, it is almost ten to one that it acts in strict conformity with the feelings, not only of the sound part, but of the great body of the nation. Thirty years ago, a similar course of proceeding would have lighted the torch of a civil war ; whilst, at present, it has merely stirred up the bile of the most bigotted portion of the Catholic Clergy. Such is the mighty resolution of mind which the political events of the last quarter of a century have brought about in that country! In the mean time, a pointed contradiction is given to the report, that the journey of the Count de Celles to Italy is con nected with the Ecclesiastical Affairs of the Netherlands ; Ind instead of proceeding to Rome on a mission to the Pope, he merely goes to Naples on family affairs. [MORNING HERALD.] There are few evils in this life out of which good may not ultimately arise ; and therefore, though the pre sent panic in the Money Market has been, and, we fear, instill destined to be fraught with awful distress to many who are de serving of every degree of commiseration, the result will scarcely fail to be of some advantage to the country at large.._ Any thing which establishes truth for fiction, and that trans forms moonshine into daylight, must be a change for the better. We have all heard of instances in which inveterate diseases have been cured by sudden, and, for the time, painful accidents to the body, and that remedies which reduce men apparently to the verge of the grave, have in the end re-established health, and prolonged existence. Among the many causes which have contributed to the present state of things, the spirit of gambling, which has so long prevailed in the Stock Exchange, is one of the most obnoxious and conspicuous. It is a monstrous evil, and a most unnatural state of things, that a few individuals of enormous wealth and habitual dishonesty (for so we esteem all gamblers to be), can influence the public credit of the country to such an extent as to render even the Government, in some degree, subservient to their manceuvres. It is well known that not one half the transactions which take place in the public funds consist of bona fide sales or purchases of stock, but are , the gambling acts of persons who live by perpetual tricks and schemes alternately to raise and depress the market. It may be very ,true, that without this kind of fictitious aid the public funds would, in all probability, never have attained the prices they have arrived at; but a fictitious value in the funds is no more an advantage to the bona fide holder or pur chaser of stock, or to the country at large, than a high price of tea, sugar, cotton, hops, or tobacco, brought about by a mono.. poly in either. The evil, too, is not confined to the immediate actors in the scene, but spreads its influence far and wide._ Little fishes follow the track of the great leviathans; and the true spirit of trade is lost and swallowed up in the thirst for speculation, which the too successful plunder of these enormous gamesters engenders. It will be one of the results, we hope and believe, of the fearful crisis through which the country is now passing, to draw men's eyes to the weakness, ,the folly, and the sandy, unsubstantial basis of such proceedings, and as nothing brings back reasonable men to habits of sobriety more certainly than the effects which theyexperience from a temporary debauch, so we trust that the calamities which are now the result of this moral intoxication, will be to teach those who have escaped it, as well as those who are suffering from it, the wisdom of adopt ing a better line of conduct for the future. The rage for schemes and speculations has, we believe, already cured itself; and there is no great danger that we (of the present age at least) shall again witness any tiling like the mania of the past year.— But th grand hazard.table in Capel-court will not be so readily deserted. The dealers, the croupiers, the markers, and the dupes, still remain upon the spot, and something beyond mere caution and experience may be wanting to rescue the unwary from. the fangs of the harpies who hang about this hell to compass their destruction, as well as that of each other. We do not pretend to say in what way so salutary an improve ment might best be brought about ; but we do not hesi tate to affirm that it would be a great blessing to the com munity if any plan could be devised to prevent any but real bona fide transactions taking place in the Funds. Few real buyers purchase their stock to-day, and want their money again to-morrow; and we see no great harm or incon venience that could arise from some regulation which should prevent the re -transfer of the same stock within a given period. We know that some great capitalists, as they are called, and those who live in the way we have described, would exclaim against any thing of the kind—and there may be objections to it : but the question is, whether they are of weight, sufficient to counterbalance the evident advantages that would arise from getting rid of a system which converts the market of the publie debt of the country into an arena where experienced gamblers prey upon the unwary, and who, though hitherto honest, are too often, we fear, induced to gamble with'property not their own, COUNTRY MARKETS AND FAIRS DURING THE LAST WEEK.

With scarcely any supply during the past week the trade has been dull ; the dealers refraining from making purchases, except what they cannot avoid. This day's market was pretty well attended by dealers from the country, but they bought very sparingly ; and the business doing was of so trivial a nature that we do not feel warranted in altering the prices of last week for any article except Flour, which is Is. to 2s. per sack cheaper. Had large buyers of Wheat offered, probably they might have had it somewhat cheaper.
