Al the ADJOURNED SPECIAL GENERAL MEETING of tbr Shareholders of this Company, hdd at the London Tavern, Bishops 41te-street, London. on Tuesday, the 119th day of January, 1856; DAVID WADDINGTON, Esq., M.P., in the Chair; the result of the Poll upon Mr. James Cloosson's Amendme n t, as reportedby the scrutineers, was announced by the Chairman, as Spirit of the Pablic Journals. (Front the Morning Post of this clay. ) The intelligence which has just reached this country from the United States is, in one respect, little calculated to restore that good understanding which all sensible Englishmen and Americans must wish to see preserre(l between two nations linked together by so many ties of common origin, com mon sympathy, and common interest. The Foreign Enlistment question still appears to remain un settled ; and, if we are to accept the statements published in the American newspapers as correctly interpreting—which we have reason to fear they do—the policy that the Cabinet at Washington is determined at all risks and hazards to pursue, " the reparation " mentioned in the President's Message amounts to this—the recall of Mr. Cramp ton, and, in the event of non-compliance on the part of the British Government, the delivery to that gentleman of his passports, and the withdrawal of the exequiturs of three British Consuls sup nosed to be implicated in the same alleged in fringement of the neutrality laws of the United States. What means the American papers may have of becoming acquainted so accurately with the secrets of the Cabinet at Washington, it is idle as well as useless for us at so great a distance to at tempt to guess or divine. In all probability some of them have lent themselves to that dangerous system of bluster which - Mr. Pierce and Mr. At torney-General Cushing have thought proper to adopt, with a view to influence the next Presi dental election, and have inferred the probable policy of the Administration from the only in stance which the history of their country affords of the compelled recall of a Foreign Minister, and of the withdrawal of the exequaturs of Fo reign Consuls. In the year 17'93, Citizen Genet, the Minister-of the French Republic, signalised the eemnsencement of his diplomatic career. in the United States by fitting out, in the American ports, privateers to cruise against English commerce —England being a Power with whom the United States was at peace, though she was engaged in warfare with France. Citizen Genet answered the remonstrances addressed to him by Washington— who naturally wished to preserve a position of honourable neutrality—by a most insolent letter, appealing from the President to the people, and Washington forthwith sent him his passports, of which, however, Citizen Genet did not avail him self, having a discreet suspicion that his head would not be safe on his return to his own country. He was, nevertheless, divested of his diplomatic cha racter, and continued for the remainder of his life to reside under the protection..of that very Power whose laws he had violated. About the same time e French Consul, M. Duplaine, had caused a vessel m be rescued from the custody of the officers of the United States, and in this case his exequatnr was very properly withdrawn by President Washington. In both these instances the vio lation of the neutrality laws of the United States was open and undisguised. These precedents, no doubt, have occurred to the recollection of our ransatlantic contemporaries, and they have come to the conclusion that the time lute arrived when President Pierce may, with advantage to himself, parody the proceeding of the great Washington, by demanding the recall of - et Foreign Minister, and withdrawing the exequafocrs of certain Foreign Consuls. The cases are not in the slightest degree similar. M. Genet and M. Duplaine were them selves, directly and personally, implicated in an offence which, beyond dispute, violated the law of the State to which they were accredited ; but in the case of Hertz (for we cannot call it the case of Mr. Crampton), the attempt which was made in the district court of Pennsylvania was to connect that gentleman with the acts of certain agents, who proved their honesty by conveniently turning States' evidence, and by making statements which, if of any value, only amounted to this—that they had not succeeded in extorting the money which they had originally expected to receive: But the straw-est part of the whole affair is, that the American *Go vernnien t, whilst it is willing to adopt and act upon the evidence of common informers, entirely disre gards the memoranda produced at the trial, whish state that no act must he done which would " con , stitute a violation of the law of the United States ;" or " bear the appearance of recruiting within the jurisdiction of the United States ;" and that, if the strict observance of these points were neglected, the parties " must expect no sort of aid or assist ance from the British Government." The com mission of the alleged offence was preceded by these instructions, framed with scrupulous care to avoid any possible infringement of the law of the 'United States ; and after it became known to the British Government that a constructive and unin tentional cause of complaint had been given, the whole scheme of recruitment was at once stopped, stud ample explanations - and apologies were ten dered and given. One American paper states : " Lord Palmerston insists that sufficient explana tion and apology have already been given to tho United States, and our Government, with equal pertinacity, insists on the contrary. On the dis agreement on this point all further correspondence between the two Governments has closed. The special Message which the President has in readi ness for the Congress will be found to sustain this statement." Hero we may observe, that at the time when these opinions were expressed, intelli gence had not reached America of an early prospect of the restoration of peace in Europe. The naval power of England—never more fully developed than at present, comprising a force of ships of the line, frigates, and mortar and gun-boats, in com parison with which the entire navy of the United States is but a weak and inefficient squadron, will, with the certainty of peace, be set at liberty to act in vindication of the national honour in whatever quarter it may be assailed. The change, there fore, which has recently come over the drama of European politics will, no doubt, have its proper weight with all reflecting men in the United States, and they will consider whether, in a point of mere international punctilio—which has been the sub ject of explanation and apology—a war should be rashly and wickedly proveked, which would sweep American commerce from the seas, and lay the whole seaboard of the Union open to the attacks of the greatest naval Power in the world. (From the Daily News of this flay.) It might not be amiss if some of the more zealous encomiasts of Lord Palmerston were to call to mind the lesson of the dinner gi yen by the Reform Club to Sir Charles Napier before' he sailed for the Baltic. It will bo wise to reserve their songs of triumph for the Premier's succems as a war minister and peace-maker until the peace is really concluded ; as it would have been wise to have reserved the eloquent tributes to Sir Charles's exploits in the Baltic until they had been achieved. When the peace is concluded, and found to ;.‘e such as Eng land has a right to expect, we shall• not be cold or slow in our acknowledgriTenta . of tho merit of the Minister to whom we owe it ; but, to nse a homely proverb, we don't like to " count our chickens be fore they are hatched." Of all kinds of discounting, the discounting of honour and glory is the most dangerous. It is not because our belief in the near approach of peace is shaken, or because we doubt that the terms—though short of what we could wish—will be suc!i as England may accept without dishonour, that we make this remark. The .object with which the war was commenced was to assert the inde pendence and integrity of the Oh oman Empire. Russia has been forced to recoil ; to relinquish her arrogant claim to be recognised a: I scarereign medi ator between the Sultan and the sok:acts of the Greek rite. More than this, Russia has consented not to rebuild her Black Sea fleet or maimtain mili tary arsenals on the Euxine, and to cede a portion of Bessarabia. We admit that these terms . 4,10 not appear to us sufficient to ensure a permanent peace. We believe that Russia's policy is merely rectger pour mieux saucer. But we believe that sufficie.'it time will be gained before she can be ready to make another spring, to admit of her destined victims placing themselves in - a position to defy her utmost efforts. The Russian retreat leaves Turkey stronger than she has been at any time since the suppression of the Janissaries and the destruction of her fleet at Navarino. It will be Turkey's own fault if the termination of the respite that has been gained for her does not find her in a condition to make such a stand against Russia as she has never done since her con flicts with that ambitious and unscrupulous power began. It is true that another campaign cer tainly have sent Russia's Baltic fleet to keep Wow e d company with her fleet of the Black Sea, and would have enabled Poland to re-assert her n ationality. Another campaign would have more effectually tamed Russia's spirit of lawless aggression. But it is evident that our great Ally shrinks from the wider issues which a prolongation of the contest would necessarily have opened, avd there is no call on England to undertake single-hslncled the task of making "assurance doubly sure." in making this concession, how ever, we take for ;ranted that the terms to which ale Russian Cabi net* the very least have already set their bands ai.e that will be canted, DM, Otem 'Pt 08 tau Pgt IN THE HIGH COURT UN ORANCERY.

[PRIOR 4^• STAMPED SD• to shuffle out of them must be promptly and pe remptorily checked. Unless the " preliminaries" are immediately and unequivocally signed, sealed, and ratified, the war ought to go on. But we do not think it probable that Russia will drive matters to such an issue. She has already lost too much, and has too certain a prospect of losing more if the war continue. All the hints of her organs in the continental press about her claims to lenient treat ment, all the praise of her magnanimity and boasts of her resources, are merely flourishes of trumpets to cover her retreat'. 'What" courtesy" is due to Russia ? The stern courtesy which the duellist shows to his antagonist when he takes his ground. The courtesy inspired by the reluctance of every noble heart to vent itself in railing. As for the lavish abuse of England, even in quarters where common decency would have dictated a different tone, they are no more than we expected, and can despise. Have wo not been accustomed for the greater part of half a oentury to hear our struggles during the great European war undervalued, and our victory at Waterloo denied ? The universal disposition to carp and cavil at England on all occasions is an involuntary tribute to her great ness—the muttered envy of less favoured nations. England can afford to hold the even tenor of her way undisturbed by them. England is alike prepared for war or peace, whichever regard to her own honour and the in terests of Europe shall dictate. If it is to be war, the duty of Englishmen is clear : to support the Government in its vigorous prosecution, and to watch jealously that the national means arc ap plied with judgment, and a wise, because judicious, economy.- If it is to be peace, other duties, no leis important and honourable, will devolve upon us, and to these we would now invite attention. It is a lamentable fact that the efforts of the Liberal party—the party of progress—among us have of late been paralysed by personal and sec tional animosities. The restoration of peace will remove some of the most prolific sources of this mischievous discord. Questions relating to the expediency of a peace or war policy will be placed in abeyance. Personal soreness, arising from cri ticism of the manner in which the war has been conducted, will cease. We retain our own, opinion as to the essential merits of the controversies that have been waged ; but we are free to admit that— as on all occasions when men's passions have been excited by serious disputes—there has been more of personal asperity on all sides than can be justi fied. We care not to inquire who have been the first offenders, or who have b een most to bl ame . All have probably been in the wrong in this mat ter. But in the name of the people we protest against the perpetuatioleof this embitterment and isolation. The sincere and earnest friends of Progress do not differ as to the general principles of a Liberal policy. The urgency of steady, practical, progressive amelioration of our insti tutions is recoenised by all who deserve the name of Liberals. It is unseemly that the forces of the party should be frittered away by the separate independent action of sections, when by mutual arrangement the objects of all might be attained. The national mind was never in so apt a frame for the promotion of great im provements as at the present moment. The frank and fearless manner iii which the detects of oar in stitutions are canvassed, regardless of the impres sion the avowals of our shortcomings may make upon other nations, is an infallible proof of the people's determination to have them amended. We do not care to confess our faults to each other, in the hearing of censorious strangers, because we are bent upon discovering their nature and extent with a view to a thorough reform. It is the duty of the Liberal leaders, regardless of past personal differences, to unite and turn to the best account this happy mood of the national mind. It is only necessary for them to adopt a clearly defined and practical policy to ensure to them such an amount of popular support as no party in this or any other country ever enjoyed. They have it in their power to introduce such arnelisrations into all ad ministrative departments as will combine economy with efficiency ; to efface such remnants of obsolete legislation as survive only to provoke sectarian asperities ; to abolish such laws as still trammel the free exercise of talent and enterprise in indus trial pursuits and rankle in the minds of the less favoured of fortune ; to remove such obstacles as impede the advancement iu the pubic service of those in whom ability and honourable ambition are not associated with influential connexions, and perpetuate class animosities. A nobler field was never opened for the display of the true genius of the statesman. All that is required is, that the leaders of the various sections of the Liberal party shall frankly lay aside their personal animosities, and throw themselves upon a people who are not exacting, though determined to have justice done them by their rulers. We_appisa,l to the generous ambition—to every better feeling of our public men. Shall our appeal be in vain? (Front the Morning Herald of this clay.) Who shall make our money laws ? It may, per haps, be thought unnecessary to ask this question in a country where all subjects of grave import ance are submitted to that undefinable phrase " the wisdom of Parliament." We are not yet in- formed whether Lord Palmerston will be able to find a place in her Majesty's Speech in reference to this matter ; but we feel, neverthless, that it is ono that no Minister can throw to the winds, under the plea of more urgent business, in the coming session of Parliament. The circumstances of the past year have clearly pointed out to every man, who is not blinded by interest or prejudice, that the charter which has been granted to the Bank of England under the Act of 1844, must un dergo a complete revision, and that a committee of inquiry by both houses must form the preliminary to any legislation upon the subject. Butt we may remark, that to render such an inquiry useful in its widest sense, the committees entrusted to ex am;ne this important qnestion should netbe chosen from members who are alinady known to entertain certain dogmas which have rendered the present money laws so prejudicial to the commercial and trading interests of the country, nor from an is s lated class whose interest it is to maintain the.pre sent state of things ; but they should be couirosei of independent and intelligent members, selectel from both houses, passing over, .the Woods, Rus sells, and men of that class, who contrived in 1848 to frame a report which sanctioned the maintenance of the Act of 1848, in the face of evidence which most forcibly condemned it as the aggravating cause of the panic and distress in 1847. If the country in any future inquiry select men of the same predilections, the same farce will be repeated, and the Bank charter will be prolonged for a further period. of ten years. In the meantime, it may be well to remind our readers, and those interested in the subject, of the names to whom the country is indebted for the con tinnance of this law...Onstslae.reotion of Mr. finale, in 1848, " That in the opinion of this committee, the laws for regulating the issue of bank-notes, payable on demand, aggravated tho commercial distress in England in 1847," the following votes were given on each side AYES.

But it must be borne in mind that there.is yet a small knot of Govern' mant supporters who are rigidly wedded to the Peel and Jones Loyd theories, and although they are not numerous they exercise an immense influence over the present Cabinet. The most extreme of these is probably Baron Overstone (late Jones Loyd), who has used every possible influence at his command, net only to maintain the present law, but to show by argu ment that it cannot be improved. In any future in quiry, however, he may be called upon to exercise his judgment, not as a witness, but as a legislator in the matter. The country is so thoroughly aroused to the necessity for a consideration of the question that it cannot be allowed to slumber.

CHESTER. The annual soiree to the members for Manchester was given on Monday evening, at the Corn Exchange. F rom seven to eight hundred persons were present. Mr. G. Wilson presided, and was supported, on the right hand, by the Right Hon. T. Milner Gibson, MY., and General Thompson ; and on the left by Mr. John Bright, M.P., and Mr. Jas. Heywood, M.P. These gentlemen were received with loud cheers on entering the Exchange'. Amongst other gentlemen present were S'r Elkensh Armitage, Mr. Alderman Watkins, and Mr. Edmund Ashworth. After some opening remarks from the Chairman, The Right Hon. T. M. Gesso): addressed the meeting at some length in vindication of the support he had given to the peace party in the House of Commons. The war, he said, had interrupted measures of social ine provement, but he thought we began to see daylight, even in respect to the war. (Applause.) A large patch of blue sky had made its appearance in what was belora a dark and cloudy atmosphere ; and, from aU he ceuld hear, there seemed to be a very good chance of IF:aos - . being concluded at an early day. (Appesusee)' ' - ffe thought that those who might he regarded as the prit eipal supporters of the war ought to be satisfied with the proposed solution, but he believed that it was not one whit better, as a security to Europe, th an th e solu tion proposed by Austria last May. (Hear, hear, and a cry of " Not a bit.") Whether it was limitation, counterpoise, or neutralisation, that was written upon paper, he believed that it was pretty much the sante. He was perfectly satisfied with the proposal now made. just as he was with that of May last. (Hear, hear.) But it might occur to the minds .of the meeting, that in May last Sebastopol was not taken, and though we bad gone to Vienne professing to be desirous to make peace, we did not really like the idea of making peace on any terms, till we had bad some great military success. They knew there had been from the beginning a peace party in the British Cabinet. Lord John Russell had left that Cabinet, but his spirit WWI left behind him. Only a short time since a great office in the Cabinet became vacant, and what was the course proposed to be adopted at that time ! Why, to fill that office by the appointment of an eminent member of the peace party. Did not that look as if there was a wish in high quarters to make that party stronger in the Cabinet' If they had not in view the desire to have the means of making peace, would they have invited a gen tleman like Mr. S. Herbert to join the Administration I' Why, he remembered his say-inn, in the House of Cone mons, but a eery short time before, "It may be asked why I, who was for war, ant now for peace. My answer is, how can I he for war, wh e n I b e li e ve the objects for which I undertook it are attained, or are attainable I' And more than that, he said, "To pursue a war after its objects are attained, for mere military success, would be criminality indeed." These were the words of Mr. S. Herbert. He (Mr. Gibson) had never heard that he had changed his opinions ; and yet with that before the public, the Ministry, entertaining—as he was sure they must entertain—a most profound contempt for the sort of confusion of mind that seemed fo have run through same part of the press of England in reference to the condition and wishes cf Government—in contempt as it appeared to him, of that confusion of mind, they offered their very first great office, in the lieht of di.y. to an eminent member of the peace party. In doing this he he lieved they were actuated by a desire to bring mare mo deration into their councils, and to be able to resist tlmt reckless desire for war, which had its origin in, and which was supported by, passion and not reason. They were beginning to see the difficulties of their position; and to find that the war feeling of the country would carry them further than they intended to go. They feared they should go out of their depth, and they therefore thought they had better strengthen the peace party in the Cabinet. Accordingly, when tbey could not get Mr. S. Herbert, to whom did they go next ! Did they co to a flaming war man ? No, they went to Lord Stanley, a gentlemen be longing to the party of Lard Derby, but who had die tingnished himself in the Ho Ise of Gammons by able speeches of a peace character, and who had been re markable from the commeneeroceit for the stataaman-lik moderation with which he had treated this queatioe. These were small sympt Ills, which he ver.tured ta think betokened the app roac h o f pence ; an d even t s te e :L ed to justify that opinion. If peace he nrociaimed, let 119 hope there would also be that union ef the great liberal party which the worthy chairmen referred to. If that party be united, ant pledged itself to the great principles, depend upon it that in this country there would only be a feeble minority to oppose their policy. Let them place nom the banner the old motto of Lord Grey_" Peace, retrench ment, and reform " (Applrnee.) . . ; , JOHN BRIGHT, Esq., M.P.., rose at S o'clock, and was received with prolonged cheering. He referred in detail to the terms of peace which have been accepted by Dee site as preliminaries, expressing Lis opinion that they are in themselves admirable, chiefly because there is reason to believe they will lead to a pacification. Nevertheless, Russia, at the conclusion of the war would remain one of the great powers of Eerope, ard. its transactions in the different States would be pretty much on a parity with what they were he-etnfo . e. ire directed attention to the vast lose of life, e f money, and of material wealth which the contest has entailed upon the nations engaged in it, and the addition it has occasioned to the public debt of this country. Welled lost, "at a moderate computation 50,000 men ; France, 100,000 ; the Turks, 100,000 ; met Russia, 250,000. England had epent atleast 100,000,0001., and France an equal or a larger sum, and Russia has probably si eit fifty millions upen it. I believe the pre sent Emperor of the French has added mere to the debt of Fran( 9 by this two years' war than his uncle did throughout the whole of lie carter." Russia had taken during the war at least twice as many prisoners as the allies ha'l taken from her. and " net withstanding the allies possess certain points of the Rus sian territory in the south, Russia is in posses: ion at this morn-nt of feu times mere square miles belonging to the allies than the allies me of Russia. They have Kars, the capital of the province of Armenia, and, but for the in tervention of the weather, now sewed have beers iu Er zerourn, ace, in point of fail,in almost uueenteeted pos session of the south side of the Black Sea." The hon. member then attacked the preen with much bitternees. " I will undertake to say," he rematkeil, " that since the day when Ahab, at the bidding of 400 prophets, whose tongues Satan had glil - ed with lies, went up to Ramo h Gilead to battle, there has not been a greater imposition practised upon any people than that by the writers for the public press of England upon us." He then proceeded to contrast the government of the United States with that of En ;land, with its " 40 or 50 dilapi dated peers," and State Church, and fleets frowning upon and menacing every coast. He thee referred to his alleged coalition with Mr. Disraeli and Mr. Gladstone, expressing his belief that a writer in tho Tiers, who made a statement to that effect, know at the time thst " every syllable he wrote with respect to this matter wee an absolute and unmitigated falsehood." Mr. Bright concluded with claiming consistency for his own conduct; throughout the whole of " tbisernhappy war , " h e an d n ? slight degree of fortitude for the manner in wh ic h . ha el maintained his opinions. " I know very well, an d er , u must know, that there are steeps of Alma in morale an well as on the field of battle and of blood.

The hon. gentleman resumed his seat amid load and repeated ap. plause, having spoken for an hour and three-quarters. Major-General THOMPSON said he was one of those who believed that there was a necessity to commence this war, but as it offered no hope for the promotion of liberty, and as it had been so badly directed, he thought it was time to stop it. Mr. J. HEYWOOD, M.P., bad supported the war, toge ther with his colleague, Mr. Cheetham, but the terms now offered were satisfactory, and Russia ought to be met is a conciliatory spirit.
