The enormous failure of Santo and Co., of Rio Janeiro, hes up to the present had bat a very in significant effect on our market. When it was first known here great fears were entettAined about the Maria Bank, but the large remittance of gold which the bank in Rio made to the River Plato caused this popular bank to enjoy greater confidence than heretofore. Still, the effect of Santo's failure has tended greatly to tighten money, and merchants look with anxiety to see what effect it will haye in England.

COBBETT and CO., General House Furnishers, Deptford bridge, London, S.E. Entertaining these sentiments and feelings towards Brazil, it will tbe a source of unfeigned grief and of very sincere regret to the Government of the United States, to learn that a commander in her navy, without instructions or authority of any kind, should have taken upon himself the responsibility of capturing one of the piratical cruisers of our rebels while lying in the harbour of Bahia; and the undersigned feels authorised to assure your excellency that every reparation which honour and justice demand will be most . frankly tendered —more frankly and more promptly than if the same .act had been committed by an American cruiser in the waters of the most powerful maritime nations of the world. But in so doing, the Government of the United States will undoubtedly make the antende honorable under protest. She will tell Brazil that she denies in tote the right of any nation or natips, immediately upon the breaking out of a rebellio in the dominions of a friendly power—withoirt in i quiry or investigation of any kind, and without knowledge of, or even pretending to know the merits of the quarrel— to declare such rebels a belligerent power, and by proclama- Unfortunately at this moment, owing to the Brazilian forces having invaded Banda Oriental, and the Government of Paraguay having openly declared that it would regard such invasion a decla ration of war, many are of opinion that President Mitre will be dragged into the struggle ; but there is good reason to suppose that no complication will induce President Mitre to enter into a war which can only result in both misery and expense to the Argentine Republic. The Government of Buenos Ayres is introducing many useful retorms, and is assiduous in its efforts to foment industry and protect life and property. Its Treasury boasts of a surplus; and the public money, instead of being squandered, is applied towards the building of new churches, schools, the survey of lands, the extension of railways, &c. Trade in the city is getting brisk, as dealers from the country and provinces are coming in. There is good prospect of a splendid wool crop ; the quality is very superior, and the quantity is expected to be in excess of that of last year some 20 per cent. The Provincial Bank has drawn £35,000 on Eng. land by this packet. The Standard says :—" We understand it has opened a credit on F. Huth and Co., of London, for £200,000, and we suppose per next packet it will draw for the balance. The rate of exchange has gone up, owing to the Provincial Bank drawing, and good bills were offered at 49:, to 491. The total amount drawn up to the present we estimate at £140,000 sterling. The new wool crop is expected in the market in about 15 days. tion make them in the ports of the world the equals of the nation against which they are in rebellion. She will insist that until their nationality is recognised they cannot invest their armed vessels with the nationality necessary " to set forth a vessel of war," and she will insist that all such vessels are no more and no less than pirates. She will proclaim, as heretofore, that a vessel built in an English port by English artisans, and with English funds, armed and equipped by Englishmen, with Englishmen to man, sail, and fight her, and sailing from an English port under English colours, with the avowed purpose of preying upon and destroying the commerce of a friendly power which happens to be her naval and commercial rival, and which does so prey upon and destroy the commerce of the friendly power under the ridiculous plea that she is a vessel of war belonging to the rebels—without ever having visited a rebel port—is nothing more or less than a pirate, which the nation whose commerce she molests has a right accord ing to every principle of equity and justice which obtains among civilised and Christian communities, to pursue and destroy in every port and every harbour of the world. But she will at the same time say to Brazil, that the powers of the world having, unintentionally no doubt, been comb ned against her,and her international rights being de nied her through that combination, she has been compelled for the time being to submit to what she cannot resist, as has heretofore been the case with every nation (including Bra zil) of whose injustice she complains. Submitting therefore, as she does, simply because she is compelled so to do, and recognising the right of these pirates to protection in the ports of England and France, simply because she cannot resist it, the Government of the United States will not withhold from Brazil one iota of the reparation which, under similar circumstances, in her present embarrassed po sition, she would be compelled to make to England. While she submits to the great injustice done her, she most scru pulously observes the strictest neutrality to al. ; and as she is compelled to recognise towards European Powers the new doctrine, which in the twinkling of an eye and by the dash of a pen converts a rebel of yesterday into the belligerent of to-day, with all the rights and immunities, and entitled to all the honours and privileges of the power against which he is in rebellion —so will she most cheerfully recognise (under protest) that new doctrine towards Brazil, and hasten to make her every reparation for the alleged breach of neu trality which has occurred in the waters of the empire. Neither the Government of the United States nor the under signed are directly or indirectly responsible for that event as one dependent upon their volition. It was neither or dered nor authorised by the Government of the United States or the undersigned ; and it will be to his Government as it is to the undersigned a sourca of very sincere regret that, it such an event must of necessity have occurred, it did not take place in the waters of the rower which, fifteen days after bearing of the rebellion in the United States, joy. fully and liopofully procloirutd our rebel. o " bulliguicut" power—an act which her press and 1 eople and our rebellious States looked upon certain to bring on our country all and more than all the evils actually inflicted, by adding to them the dissolution of the American Union. THE OUTWARD INDIA, CHINA, AND AUSTRALIAN MAILS. SOUTHAMPTON, Nov. 20. The Peninsular and Oriental Company's steam ship Delhi, Captain Rogers, sailed hence to-day, at 2 p.m., with the mails for Gibraltar, the Mediter ranean, Egypt, Aden, Ceylon, India (except Bom bay), China, Mauritius, Australia, and New Zealand. In replying to the note of your excellency, and assuming as facts statements in regard to which the undersigned knows nothing, he frankly, and very sincerely, for himself and in behalf of his Government, under the circumstances herein stated, repudiates most emphatically the capture of the pirate Fbrida in the waters of Brazil ; and ho desires to reiterate, as the burtben of all his despatches and instructions from Washington, his determination to draw nearer and closer together in bonds of reciprocal friendship the two le Wing nations upon the American continent. Such being, as ho is assured, the wishes and intentions of both Brazil and the United States, the undersigned entertains no apprehensions that those purposes and intentions can. be thwarted by the commander of one of our vessels of war, or by the hasty acts of an excited populace, based uron what they considered a national indignity. In the full conviction that the Government of the United Suttee will promptly do all that becomes its own dignity and the dignity and honour of Brazil, the undersigned begs leave to renew to your excellency, with apologies for this hastily written note, the expression of his most distinguished con sideration.

The Stranding of the Lagoda Screw Steamer. On Saturday an official inquiry, instituted by the Board of Trade, was concluded at the Greenwich Police-court, before Mr Trail!, the magistrate, and Captain DJmett and Captain Cow, as nautical as sessors, into the circumstances attending the strand ing and subsequent wreck of the Lagoda iron screw steamer on the upper part of the Nore Sand, and a mile distant from the Norc Light, on the night of the 26th October. Mr OTowd attended to conduct the inquiry on behalf of the Board of Trade. From the evidence adduced it appeared that the Lagoda was on her homeward passage from St. Petersburg to London, having on board three pas. sengers and a valuable general cargo. She was under the command of Captain B. Moore, and was a newly-built vessel, having been registered at Lloyd's in 1863, and classed A. 1 for six years. Nothing particular occurred on the voyage, and on the evening of the 26th ult. the vessel made the Maplin Light, and four hours afterwards, her en gines being worked at full speed, she went hard on to the upper part of the Nore Sand,as above stated. Attempts were made to get her off, but unsuccess• fully, and at three o'clock on the following morning (four and a half hours after striking) she parted right amidships. At daybreak her passengers and crew were safely landed, and a small portion of the cargo was saved, the steamer being afterwards got off and towed into Sheerness harbour. The master, chief and second mates and others of the crew were examined as to the courses steered immediately preceding the stranding, when the Court adjourned to consider its judgment. On returning, Mr. Traill, addressing Captain Moore, said—According to his (the master's) state ment the ship was abreast of the Nore Light about 10 p.m,, and that the course then given was W. by N., which course was used for about ten minutes, and W.N.W. for five minutes longer, and on this course the ship went aground. The weather was moderate, and sufficiently clear to see the lights, and there is no way of accounting for the stranding of the ship except through some default of proper care in the navigation. The answers of the master appear to the Court to establish such a case of default. From these answers it appears to the Court that the master is chargeable with the following default. First, in shaping a too southwardly course on passing the Nore Light. Even supposing the ship to have been one mile or a mile and a half to the north on passing the Nore Light, the :course, instead of the main course of W.N.W., whioh is the course he says he steered, ought to have been N.W. by W. tW. Conse quently, if, as stated by the second mate, the ship was only half or three quarters of a mile, or, as stated by the steersman, only 300 yards to the north of the Nore Light, the course steered would have been still more faulty. Again, there being no diffi culty in seeing the two lights, if they had been pro• perly watched, the captain must have seen his course was much too far to the southward. Again, not using the lead was, under the circumstances, a seri. ous omission ; and lastly, the speed was i mproper, particularly coupled with so little precaution as to the course shaped. For those reasons the Court is of opinion that the stranding of the vessel we , . Caused by the default of the master, and have de. cidtd that his certificate be suspended for six calen dar months from this date. The inquiry then terminated.

The United States Minister at Rio has addressed the following despatch to the Foreign Minister at Brazil : Rio de Janeiro, Oct. 14. Excellency acknowledge T he Plenipotentiary undersigned, setnh hefor from in j receiptot E hsoe ia v uro o fne y E Pedro treondxott note States, eo Dias o rf Vieira,d ay this h ars date,t andh councillorhonourfro Ministermh to to os his Imperial Majesty the Emperor, Minister and Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs, calling his attention to an alleged violation of the neutral rights of Brazil and an indignity offered to her sovereignty by the commander of the United States eorvetto Wachusetts, in capturing in the harbour of Bahia an armed vessel calling herself a vessel of war, by name the Florida, belonging to certain States of the Federal Union, which are now, and for three years past have been, in rebellion against the Government of the United States; but which vessel the Government of the United States de clares to have no nationality whatever, and insists that she was, to all intents and purposes. a pirate. The undersigned has no official information in relation to the alleged capture and violation of the neutrality and sove reignty of Brazil, other than is contained in the note of his Excellency the Minister of Foreign Affairs; and, he, there fore, assumes the statement made by his excellency to be accurate in all its details; reserving to himself, however, the right to correct any errors which may have crept into that statement in consequence of its being merely an ex parte report from those in authority at Bahia. The undersigned, before proceeding to consider the very grave international question to which his attention has been called, feels it incumbent upon him, as an act of justice to his Government and country, to make a fow passing remarks in regard to the claim, that the people in rebellion against our Government are, in fact, a "belligerent'' power, at war with the Government of the United States, instead of a band of traitors in rebellion against the Government to which they owe allegiance, of which they have always con stituted a part, and from which, neither for the purposes of war nor peace, have they ever been separated. The facts of the case in regard to their claim to be a "belligerent" power at war with the United States, are briefly as follows. — The great rebellion against the Government of the United States, by a portion of its Southern people, broke out on the 12th day of April, 1861; and the knowledge of that rebellion reached England about the Ist of May in the same year. Six days after Lord John Russell, the English Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs, intimated in the House of Commons that the British Government would probably recognise our rebels as a " belligerent" power ; and in 15 days after the English government had received in telligence of a rebellion having broke out within our borders—a misfortune to which all nations are liable, and from which England and Brazil have not been exempt— the Queen of Great Britain by her proclamation recognised those in rebellion against the Government of Washington to be a" belligerent" power, and entitled within her ports to all the privilege of belligerents, and in all respects the equal of those against whom they were in rebellion. In one word, Englanct degraded the Government of the United States to the level of those in open rebellion against its authority; and elevated our rebels to a position of equality with a powerful nation, with which it had, and professed a desire to maintain, the most amicable relations and the closest commercial and political intercourse. That act of the Government of Great Britain was as much a casus belli as would have been the recognition of the independence and sovereignty of the so-called Confederate States; and it would unquestionably have been so treated if France and other European Powers had not immediately endorsed the.;' , ass injustice of England; to which Brez'l at the oarlieot woe went possible gave her sanction and approval. It is not assumed by the undersigned that this action on the part of Brazil arose from any feeling of hostility to a neighbouring and always friendly Power, which has ever o r o e c n o t n n e i n s e t d t . o t h s e t a d n u d t y b y o f e a t h o h e G o tohveerr defence inam of t a h n e A American c ontinent to stand by each otherin defence of an American, in contradistinction of a European, policy. It was most probably resorted to, beeauso it was convenient and usual for Brazil to act in concert with the recognised Powers of E u rope ; but it was, nevertheles a most hasty and ill advised proceeding, and grossly and manifestly an act of injustice to a neighbouring and ever friendly Power. It is only necessary for your excellency to ask yourself, what would have been the feelings of Brazil, if in past years, immediately upon hearing of disturb ances and rebellion within the Imperial empire, the Govern ment of the-United States, without inquiry into the cha racter of such rebellion and in ignorance of its cause orjus tification if any, had made hot haste to unite with the Eu ropean powers is regarding as belligerents the province in rebellion, and thereby elevating her rebels to an equality with the Imperial Government, by giving them similar rights in her ports as belligerents, and making them the equals in all respects of the government against which they were in rebellion? Beyond all manner of doubt, to have done so would have been considered a flagrant outrage per petrated by a great naval power against a weaker but friendly nation, and an admitted castes belly. Brazil would unquestionably have so considered it; but if not convenient to go to war with the United States for the perpetration of such an outrage, she would have contented herself with re monstrating against the proceeding as equally unfriendly and unjust; and then oalmly have submitted to the indig nity, outrage, and injustice which she could not repel. And this is perhaps what the Unitel States has been com pelled to do. Sho could not go to war with all the world, and at the same time put down a gigantic rebellion within her borders. To have done so would have secured to her rebels the triumph of their rebellion, and gratified her ene mies by a disruption of that great American power, so im portant for the development of constitutional and represen tative government, and so necessary for the protection of all the governments of the continent of Ameriea, against Eu ropean interference with their inalienable right to govern themselves. Beyond all peradventure, the object of Great Britain, in recognising as belligerents those in rebellion against the Go vernment of the United States, was, if we take her leading press and the speeches of many of her statesmen in and out of Parliament as exponents of her purpose—to accomplish by indirect means what she did not deem it prudent to at tempt by a more manly course. She had just as much right to declare our Government destroyed and the Union broken up by a recognition of the sovereignty and indepen dence of our rebels, within two weeks after hearing of the rebellion, as she had to give them by proclamation the rights of belligerents. But she wanted the manhood to do this in the face of Europe, and the just indignation which she would thereby have brought upon herself ; and she, therefore, in the exercise of her discretion, resorted to a measure which she well knew was a castes Belli, but which she foresaw we were not in a position to treat as such ; and the consequence of which she had a right to suppose, as did our rebels, would eventually be a disruption of the great American Republic. Britain is the first naval and commercial power of the world ; and the other nations of Europe, followed by Brazil on this continent, very naturally, were led into the adop tion of her proclamation, without perceiving its tendency to throw the better part of our commerce into the hands of our only commercial rival, without any intention to do the United States injustice, and without intending thereby to give aid and succour to our rebels, and protract, and if possible render triumphant, their rebellion. And yet such has been the effect of the unjust policy inaugurated by Great Britain, and thoughtlessly adopted by all the powers friendly to the United States in Europe, and by her stead fast friend, Brazil, on the American continent. But for that most unjust proceeding, the rebellion in the United States would have terminated by a single campaign. had other nations practised towards us a very small portion only of tho comity and forbearance which we have always extended towards others, and exhibited that respect for the inter national right of Government to deal with rebellion and civil war as to them seems expedient, for a reasonable time at least, without interference from abroad, our rebellion would have been put down more than two years ago, with out a tithe of the sacrifice demanded of us ; and there would then have been no occasion for the undersigned to express his deep regret at tho untoward event which has called forth your excellency's note and demanded this response. The Government of the United States, through the un dersigned, has protested against the right of Brazil to con stitute her rebels "belligerents," and to concede to them at Smithfield Club Cattle Show, 1864. On Saturday the Agricultural Hall was visited by some of the members of the council of the Smith. field Club, with a view to consult with the directors as to the arrangements for the accove. modation of the largely increased number of animals which the entries of the present year are expected to produce. Notwithstanding the increased space which the Agricultural HAll at Islington affords, it will be ta\ed to its utmost limits to acco modate comfortably all the specimens of live stock, unless the practice is dispensed with of letting the eide sp.ccs under the galleries for the exhibition 01 the heavier description of implements. Last year about 30 of the cattle classes had to be located in the minor hall, and this year there are 45 more to be accommodated. It is understood that Lord Trede. gar, who is this year president of the club, is about to ascertain the wishes of the Prince of Wales es to the day on which his royal highness. and if possible the princess, may be induced to visit the show, the prince having this year several entries. The very largely increased number of entries and amount of the prizes is naturally expected to induce a much larger number of people from the country to visit the show; and in order to facilitate this desire as much as possible, the railway companies have advertised excursion trains from all the principal towns, extending over the cattle show week, at low fares. The directors of the Agricultural Hall have taken steps for increasing the comfort of the shepherds, by providing sleeping accommodation for them in the upper part of the building, instead of their being compelled, as formerly, in many in stances, to take their night's rest on the straw beside the animals upon which it is their duty to attend. Large additional stores have also been constructed for the storage of the immense amount of forage and food required by the animals daring the show. The entries in the Devons, Herefords, and short horns aro unusually large, whilst the Duke of Rich mond will have a more than ordinary show of Southdowns, and will, in probability, again bear off the honours in that class, the formidable competitor both of the present as well as the late duke, Mr. Rigden, of Hove, near Brighton. not being an ex hibitor this year, by being one of the stewards of live stock. Lord Walsingham, the late president of the club, has also entered for the Leicestershire breeds, and the competition in these classes is ex. pected to be very keen, some of the most celebrated breeders of those descriptions of sheep having en. tered. Mr. John Clay don, the chairman of the Agricultural Hall Company, has entered soma pens as well es some single specimens in extra stock of the celebrated breed of the late Mr. Jonas Webb. The whole of the animals must be at the hall before ten o'clock on the evening of Saturday, Deo. 3, and the adjudication will be so divided that the judges are expected to make their awards by two o'clock on Monday, the sth, at which hour the show will be opened to private view to members of the club, to the press, and to the public at ss. each person ; the general or public opening taking place at eight o'clock on Taesday, the 6th, and continuing daily till the evening of Friday, the 9th, when it will finally close. The Birmingham Fat Cattle Show. The entries for the forthooming Fat Cattle Show at Birmingham are now complete, and as regards numbers exceed those of any preceding year. This indeed was to be expected, from the fact that the increase of fat stock at our great Midland Counties Show has been a gradual increment, as the tabu■ lated returns of the last five years will clearly de monstrate, and the high price of meat, occasioned partially by the precarious season we have passed through, which would naturally attract a fuller sup ply than would otherwise be the case. Birmingham, from its central position amidst the most favoured grazing districts of the country, and from the nu merous lines of railway whirl connect it with the great markets of the midland counties, is admirably adapted for an annual display of fat stock ; and as a consequence we generally find as many fine beasts at this season of the year in Bingley Hall as we can expect to do at the Smithfield Club Cattle Show at Islington. If the Birmingham Show be not equal to its metropolitan prototype, it certainly must rank second to it; and indeed the distance between the two can scarcely be termed one of an ordi nary character, for all the beasts to which first.class prizes are awarded, the finest shorthorns, the choicest Herefords and Devons, and the large, mellow, and juicy Scots arc sure to find their way up to the metropolis, where the highest honours are awarded to them, and where, for the most part, they terminate their career.

The business connected with the Government bullock trains in Bengal and the Northwest Provinces, extending over more than 2,000 miles of road, was transferred to the company on the Ist of May last, too late to affect materially the returns for the year, which ended on the 30th of June. TLe returns up to the date of the transfer had been increasing very satisfactorily, and from that date had been much augmented. The gross receipts of the company for the year ending the 30th of June, 1863, were £22,975, and those for the year ending the 30th of June last £82,707, showing an increase of business which must be considered as highly encouraging. In order to develops and in some degree to create such a business in a new country an expense had to be in. curred on agencies and establishments which at the outset formed a heavy deduction from the returns, but would become of less and less importance as the magnitude of the company's business increased. The whole of the last issue of shares had been taken up, those not applied for by existing share holders having been disposed of at a premium for the benefit of the company. The available balance was £4,138, out of which the directors recommended the payment of a dividend on both the first and second issue of shares, at the rate of 6 per cent. per annum, for the half-year ending the 30th of June, 1864; that £638 be appropriated towards the liquidation of the preliminary expenses, and after setting aside £1,500, as a reserve to meet contin gencies the balance to be carried to the next account. The capital account showed that £50,000 had been received, and £21,419 expended, leaving a balance of £25,581. The 'revenue for the year ending the 30th of June lest amounted to £84,844 and the expenses to £81,215, leaving a balance of £3,629. DEMERARA. The traffic receipts on this company's line for the fortnight ended the 15th of October amounted to 4,673 dots. against 3,386 dole. for the corresponding fortnight of last year, showing an increase of 1,287 dole. The Alleged Breach of the Foreign Enlist ment Act. LIVELPOOL, Saturday Night. It is difficult at present to arrive ai; any positive informa. Lion as to the intentions of the Government with regard to the case of the Great Western. The, only indisputable fact is that the Home Secretary has confirmed the action of the Customs' authorities in Liwrpool in stopping the vessel, and that all the evidence has been forwarded, by order, to the Homo Offic t. CIA Friday night Mr Hull, having ter minated his inquiry, and forwarded the affidavits, intimated to the collector of customs that he should consider the r out of his hands. The-eckritinued detention of the Great Western sufficiently establishes the determination of tho Home Secretary to adopt severe measures, so far as the law may have been actually infringed ; but no communication as to the steps which will be taken has yet been received here. Persons continue to arrive hero and to api)ly to the police, in groat anmicty about their relatives who are on board the ship. That a c.insiderablo number of men are willing and even anxious to go out to America, and brave the risk of being sent into the field, was singularly illustrated on Friday. A steamer having been brought to the landing-stage to enable Mr Tracey, of Messrs. Baldwin and Tracey, the pa=senger agents for the Great Western, to go on board the ship, no less than 50 men, all labourers, got on board with the intention of going to the Great 'Western and joining the motley collection already there. They were with difficulty made to return to the landing stage, The men on board, however, or at least a good many of them, are becoming almost as anxious to get back to their homes. On this morning, about ten o'clock, about 25 women and several old men arrived at the detective police-station, stating that they had come in search of their relatives, who were amongst the supposed recruits on board the Great Western. These people were from Stalybridge,A.shton-under-Lyne, Dublin, Drogheda, and other places. Detective Inspector Carlisle applied to Messrs Baldwin and Tracey to enable the appli cants to see their relatives. He was referred by the agents to the captain and the owners, and applied to the latter, Messrs. Baring Brothers. The owners declined to do any thing in the matter, and referred the officers again to the agents, Captain Cunningham, however, directed the agents to place a steam tug at the disposal of the poor people, and at three o'clock they all went on board, accompanied by In spector Carlisle and detective Jones. In every instance the men were persuaded to return with their relatives, and. about 48 or fifty other men jumped on board the tug in the greatest excitement and anxiety to get away. These in cluded men belonging to Stalybridge, London, Ashton, Macclesfield, Congleton, Bolton, and several towns in Ire land. About 60 in all came away. They complain that they have had nothing to eat but salt junk, and that their only beds have been straw mattresses, with one blanket to each. The two Shaws are still on board. The police in vestigated the case of the man alleged to have been knocked into the hold. His name ia James Fawcett, and his address 10, Baker's-row, Clerkenwell, London. He is by trade an hotel porter. Ho was not knocked or pushed, bat fell into the hold, in consequence of having stepped on a slight plank on Thursday. He is severely bat not dangerously hurt. THE UNITY BANK INQUIRY. Joseph Wakefield Terry and Thomas Burch, who stood charged with having placed before the shareholders and members of the Un'ty Bank a false balancessheet, with intent to deceive and defraud them, were on Saturday again placed at the bar. The defendants, it will be remembered. were remanded formally until Saturday, it being understood that they should in the meantime furnish Mr. Lewis with the names of their bail, and that they would be brought up merely for the purpose of putting in bail, and to be remanded until a future day, when the inquiry will be resumed. Mr Wontner, on behalf of Burch, said he was prepared with two gentlemen of high position, who having been sworn, had the usual questions put to them, and were ao, cepted, Mr Lewis having no objection to either. On the part of tho other defendant (Terry), Mr Watson, his solicitor, said he was also prepared with two gentlemen, who would become bail for his client. Mr Lewis, however, said he very strongly objected to ono of the gentlemen who had come forward on the part of Terry, and he must ask that another might be found in his stead. Mr Watson said ho was not then prepared with another, and Terry was therefore again remanded until Monday to give him an opportunity of putting in bail. ERRATUM.—In our report of Saturday it was erroneously stated that the prosecution against the defendants Joseph Wakefield Terry and Thomas Burch was carried on by the liquidators of the London and Middlesex Bank. It should havo been, " The pros ecu ti on was carricd on by the liqui dators of the Unity Bank," LAW REPORTING.—Sir Ronndell Palmer, M.P., her Majesty's Attorney General, has called a meeting of members of the Bar, which is to be held in the dining room of Line( In's Inn, on Monday, the 21st inst., for the purpoKo of faking into consideration the report of a committee tip pointed on the 2d Dec. last on the subject of reporting in tho courts of law• [ADVERTISEMENT.J —HoIIowa y ' s Pills—The dark and dreary clays of winter depress the mind and disorder the body—to the former condition, occupation yields the best relief; for the latter state, Holloway's pills are safe and certain remedies.
