It entails on its votaries a host of in firmities of tha most alarming character, which the remedial art has ever to encounter. Debility bath physical and mental are not its only diag nostics. Hypochondriasis in all its varied farms, with a long catalogue of maladies, haunt the unhappy victims of this delusive and self-destroy ing passion.

The great success which has attended the establishment of Joint Stock Banks in London, as well as throughout England generally, confirming as it does the largo experience of what may now be said to have become the universal mode of banking in Scotland—the fast increasing and almost unanimous conviction of the public mind in favour of that system which, while it. affords the greatest amount of security to the customer, is found to yield anjnelle quate profit to the proprietary—make it unnecessary to offer any statement explanatory of the grounds upon which the Directors have been induced to undertake the organization of the Union Bank of London, as a bank of deposit in the metropolis, and for the transaction of all business falling strictly within the scope of banking. They will only observe, that in the monetary capital of the world there are only three establishments of a similar descrip tion, with less than 1,000,0001. of paid up capital, while in Edin burgh, a city, compared with London, of very limited commercial relations, there are no less than five joint-stock banks, having a paid up capital of 4,600,000/., the stock of every one of which bears a very considerable premium, most of them having besides paid large bonuses to the proprietors, and all allowing interest to customers on their deposits.

C HRONICL E.—Consols have advanced to 941 to O, which is an improvement of h- per cent. since yesterday, and left off very firm. In other respects there is no change in the English Stock Market. Exchequer Bills remain at 66 to 68 prem., and Bank Stock at 2021 to 2031. In foreign securities there has been very little going on, and the qn,tations are much the same ; namely, Spanish Active, 17h to O ; Portuguese Five per Cents., 33 to 1; ditto Three per Cents., 21+ to +- ; Dutch Five per Cents., 102 k to R ; ditto Two-and-a-Half per Cents., 544 to 3- ; Belgian, 99+ to + ; Brazilian, 774 to 78; Colombian, 27+ to 28+ ; and Mexican, 241 to 3. Shares are also without variation, and do not furnish matter for remark. Birmingham (old), 77 to 79 prem. ; ditto (new), 24 to 25 prem. ; Southampton, 40- to 451 per share; ditto (new), 124 to 203- prem. ; Great Western, 14 to 15 prem. ; Leeds and Manchester, 19 to 21 prem. ; Brighton, 3+ to 3 dis.; Blackwall, If to 1+ dis. ; Gosport Junction, 1+ to 21 prem. ; Midland Counties, 16 to 15 dis. ; Birmingham and Derby, 9 to 8 dis. ; Glasgow and Greenock, dis. to prem. ; elas glow and Ayrshire, 3 to 2 dis. ; South Eastern, 6 to 5 dis. ; North Midland, 3to 4 prem. ; and Greenwich, 161 to 17 per share. TIME S. _Much curiosity has attached among commercial men to the first sale of the specimens of Assam tea imported by the East India Company from that part of the British ter ritory where it is expected that its cultivation and preparation may take place to such an extent as in course of time to exclude the Chinese from the market, and make the article itself one of British colonial produce. The quantity imported has been small in the first instance, not exceeding eight chests of about 801 b. each, and the more immediate object of the sale was to determine whether the Assam tea would command such a price here as to make it worth while to commence the im portation on a larger scale. The result is a remarkable one—for so much beyond the possible real value of the commodity has been obtained, great competition taking place for it as a curiosity in its kind, that no criterion is afforded of what it may fetch when it comes to be imported in larger quantities. There were two descriptions of tea, one one of Souchong, the other of the Pekoe description; the first produced from 16s. to 20s. the last from 265. to 345. the pound without duty ; while the usual tea from China is selling at 2s. the pound or under, without the duty. The preparation of the Assam is attended with so little cost, that it may be delivered at Calcutta for export to Europe at Is. the pound or less. As an ingredient in the commercial prosperity of the country, the importance of this new sphere of action for it is hardly to be prized too highly. The funds displayed rather more firmness to-day. PO ST.—Consols opened this morning at the closing price of yesterday ; subsequently they advanced A- per cent., and at the termination of the day's business, they were quoted, for the opening on the 16th instant, at NI to Exche quer Bills left off at 665. to 68s. premium, and Bank Stock at 202- to 3. Thee was but very little doing in the Foreign Funds. The Paris letters state that the Spanish Securities continued to sell in that market at the late advance; but there will in all probability be a re-action as soon as it shall become known that a corresponding rise has not taken place on this side of the channel. There has been so much trickery resorted to in order to force up the market value of both Spanish and Portuguese Stock, that we are strongly inclined to suspect the late operations at the Bourse are of English origin. We have no fresh movement in the Share Narket to re port. The days transactions were again guile inconsider able. Great Western Railway were sold at 144 to 15 prem., London and Birmingham, 78 to prem. There was no alteration in the Foreign Exchanges to-day, except in the rate on Antwerp, which was rather more in favour of the drawer. Paris was quoted 25f. 50c. to 55c., flamburgh 13 9 to 4, Amsterdam 12 3-1- to f, Frankfurt 1504, and Antwerp 12 11-. HERALD.—The establishment of two Joint-stock Bank ing Companies has been announced to-day ; their importance we do not mean, in words, to question, seeing that a goodly set of names has been attached to the respective prospectuses. It may, however, be necessary to state that neither of the pro spectuses thus issued have any reference to the Commercial Bank of London, which will shortly be in the field under auspices that will enable it to become the rival of the self styled establishment called the Bank of England. Money for commercial discounts has lately been readily ob tained at tho rates of discount to which we have lately referred. In the continental exchanges there has not been much altera tion, but on Paris and on Frankfort they have been slightly lower. The following are the rates :—On Paris, at 25f. 50c. to 25f. 54e. ; on Amsterdam, at 12 31; on Rotterdam, at 12 31 a :V; on Hamburgh, at 13 81 9+; and on Frankfort, 150. Advices have been received from the Cape of Good Hope to the 4th of November. They do not add to the information already received from that colony respecting the north-eastern frontiers. It appears, however, that the merchants of Graham's Town, encouraged by the increasing prosperity of that station, had re solved to establish a bank, to be entitled the Graham's Town Bank, which appears to have every chance of success, although it cannot be expected that it will rise into prosperity all at once. Beyond this circumstance we do not find any news of import ance from that colony. MILITARY INTELLIGENCE.—Previous to the 36th Regiment leaving Barbadoes for Halifax, Nova Sco tia, Lieutenant-General Sir Sanford Whittingham issued a general order, congratulating the officers on the high state of efficiency in which that regiment was about to proceed to America, and on the healthy and steady appearance of t h e rn,n. Sir Sanford Whittingham was about thirty years ago an officer in this regiment. The 36th arrived at Hali fax in her Majest y 's ship Hercules on the Bth of December. A piece of plate, valued at 1.50 guineas, has been presented by the gentlemen cadets of the Woolwich Academy to Dr. Gregory, Professor of Mathematics, on his retirement from that office. 'rho circumstances of the presentation must be the more gratifying to Dr. Gregory on retiring from his long career of official duty, as this is the only testimonial of the kind which has ever been presented to a retiring professional during the existence of the Academy. The Linterick Chronicle asserts that the depot s)stem in Regiments will be broken up in the course of the year, and no reserve held beyond the staff actually necessary for recruitin g . This reform w ill di m i n i s h expense, and remove a fruitful source of complaint and dissatisfac tion in the army. The 36th Regiment, on landing at Halifax from Barbadoes, received orders to march to New Brunswick to replace the 11th Regiment, which had gone to Canada. The 15th Hussars, now in Glasgow, have received orders to prepare for embarkation to India in the spring, to replace the 13th Light Dragoons, ordered home. It is very generally rumoured in the best informed military circles, that each regiment of the line is about to be aug mented to 1,000 men. SHEEP, SHEPHERDS, AND PICKPOCKETS.— Amongst the advertisements in the Australian News papers we observed one sale of 20,000 sheep, another of 10,000 ewes, and another of 15,000 sheep. In the latter sale it is intimated that the shepherds will be assigned over to purchasers in proportion to the sheep they buy. The shepherds are most of them gentlemen who formerly dis tinguished themselves in the science of picking pockets. For a long time the authorities in New South Wales were utterly at a loss what to do with these gentry—their fingers were so exceedingly light that they could be turned to no profitable account. At last one of the more experimental governors bethought himself of trying how apastoral lire would suit them. What analogy there is between keep ing sheep, and picking pockets we know not, but it is cer tain that persons whose earlier years have been devoted to the latter occupation make most admirable shepherds. SWAN 1 VER.—From the Hobart Town Journals received by her Majesty's brig Beagle, we learn that Sir James Stirling, the Governor of the Swan River Colony, has announced his intention of proceeding to England in the course of a few months. The Legislative Council has adopted vigorous measures for the introduction of labour ; 1,500/. being set apart for that purpose ; 1,0001. to be expended in the introduction of labourers from Europe, and 500/. in bringing Hill Coolies from India. Lieutenants Lushington, and Grey have, as might have been an icipated, abandoued their expedition into the inte rior of New Holland. The former has been dangerously speared by native.—Sydney Gazette, July 24. 50) 100 176 0 500,000 6 per cent. 100 10 16 8 The remaining 17 Joint-stock Banks in Scotland are in the same flourishing condition, and such, indeed, has been the progress of the system that of the many private Banks formerly carrying on business in Edinburgh only one exists at present. The Directors, having felt that an additional Bank of this de scription was called for, have for some tirnebeen engaged in making the necessary preliminary arrangements, and, having received the most flattering encouragement and assurances of support in busi siness from capitalists in the metropolis and the country, they have now resolved to commence operations without delay, feeling assured that the judicious arrangements they have entered into, and the principles on which the Bank will be conducted, will obtain the confidence and support of the commercial and trading community, and the public generally. By taking advantage of the experience of similar establishments which have preceded them, and avoiding whatever had been found faulty or inconvenient in constitution or principle of management, they anticipate that the same, if not a larger, degree of success will mark their progress, and open up to the shareholders, as well as to their customers, the combined and reciprocal advantages which experience has proved will result from a Joint Stock Bank when properly conducted. It is the intention of the Directors to allow interest en deposit accounts, under proper rules and regulations, which, with other details as to the transaction of business with the Bank, will be hereafter announced. As a sufficient capital has already been subscribed to enable the Directors to commence business immediately, they have resolved, in order to avoid the inconvenience which has been found to ari_e in other undertakings from au unrestricted application for shares, and to induce only those to apply who wish to become bona fide proprieters, that they will not entertain any application unless made in the printed forms provided by them for that purpose, and accom panied by a payment of 21. upon each share applied for, the Di rectors reserving to themselves at the time of appropriation the right to reject or comply with such application either in whole or in part; the money to be returned if the application be rejected, and if accepted to be placed to the credit of the party in respect to the shares allotted to him. _ _ For the guidance of those who may wish to become proprietors, it may be mentioned that it is not in contemplation to call up more than 101. per share for the next two years. The Directors have postponed filling up the direction to the full number of 21, in order to give them the opportunity of selecting in fluential proprietors, whose assistance and co-operation they may think it advisable to secure for the interests of the concern. Power is reserved to them for that purpose, and they are also authorized to complete all other arrangements necessary for putting the Company into immediate operation. Deposits, in accordance with the printed forms, may be paid as under : London—Messrs. B. and M. Boy& 4, Now Bank-buildings. Liverpool—Liverpool Commercial Bank.

On the first paragraph being read, sad it being understood that a Ministerial Mem ber, M. Amilhau, had proposed an amendment, M. Gamier Pages delivered the sentiments of the Extreme Left, which appeared to be those of contempt for all parties in the Chamber, whether Ministerial, or Constitutional Opposition. He could not but vote for the address, as it spoke his opinions; but yet he had no desire that the adoption of this address should overthrow the Cabinet—be preferring a weak and poor Ministry like the present, who might be forced into doing good, to a strong and talented, and even more liberal one, which, notwithstanding its greater degree of liberality, would do nothing for the people or their cause. He declared that the ills, which all united in complaining of, the feebleness of all Parliamentary influence and weight, and the predominance of the Court over the repre sentation of the country, proceeded from the Legislature not sufficiently representing the great body of the people. The Chamber was returned by a small and isolated body of inte rested electors, and had thus neither the country nor the popu lar voice with it. M. Barthe, Keeper of the Seals, replied to M. Gamier Pages, and accused Messrs. Thiers and Guizot of leaguing with the left, in order to turn Destructives. M. Guizot then mounted the tribune, and said that since he was called factious and revolutionary for having aided in framing the Address, he would read the address, and ask which paragraph contained anything factious or revolutionary ? A scene then ensued, almost as shameful as can well be de scribed. The one hundred and fifty thick-and-thin supporters of all Ministers, occupying the centre of the Chamber, who had listened in silence to the Republican, M. Gamier Pages, began to bellow at M. Guizot, with an accord and a zeal only to be equalled by the claqueurs of a French pit. They would not hear him. He said they should, and it was only by force of lungs that he got through the first paragraph. Here the Centres clamoured against the expression, " the peace, which we have maintained," as if it was the Chamber, and not the Government, which had maintained peace. M. Gui zot replied, we meant both Chamber, Government, and coun try. None of the three Ministerial Members of the Commis sion had objected to the phrase. Hereupon ensued a murmur, and the three Ministerial Members of the Commission got up, one after another, in the tribune, M. Guizot returning to the back of it, but not quitting it. All three made the same ex cuse, viz., that the whole tone of the Address, from beginning to end, was so deplorable, and disagreeable to them, that they gave up cavilling about words and isolated expressions, and rather desired to see its bitterness exaggerated than softened, in the hope that the whole would be rejected by the Chamber. M. Guizot then continued to read the Address, in which he repeated there was nothing revolutionary—nothing against the King, but a very plain, unambiguous condemnation of the Ministry as incapable and insufficient. The Ministry did not represent the country with dignity. The Address said so. Was this the factious and revolutionary paragraph ? Yes and No were heard in answer from behind the Ministerial bench of which the occupiers remained silent, though much agitated. M. Thiers then summoned Ministers to speak out, and declare boldly was this revolutionary? Silence prevailed. M. Gui zot then read the paragraph, which declared the Throne to repose in the " altnzight of the national will." Was this re volutionary ? M. Montalivet here observed that he was no partisan of quasi-legitimacy. M. Guizot denied that he had ever uttered the phrase attributed to him of considering Louis Philippe by right of quasi-legitimacy. He was King by right of a legitimate revolution, and that he (M. Guizot) loudly professed. He then passed to the phrase that demanded a Ministry capable of " covering the throne with its responsibility." This responsibility ought to be real, and not dependent on the assertion of Ministers themselves. The King might take the first men he might meet in the street and make Ministers of them. The act was legal and, perhaps, constitutional. But they would not pro.. tect the throne by their responsibility. It was highly consti tutional to remind the throne of this, and he defied them to stigmatize such advice as revolutionary. The address was a sincere, a needful, a noble document, and neither factious nor revolutionary, and he would be proud of having been alone the author of it. It is impossible to describe the storm that burst forth be tween every sentence, and interrupted each minute the words of M. Guizot. The claqueurs of the centre were merciless and furious, and when M. Guizot descended from the tribune he was forced to fling himself exhausted on the bench occu pied by the members of the commission. Count Mole rose after M. Guizot, and began by admitting that the address was neither factious nor revolutionary, but that it was unconstitutional. It transferred power from the centre of the Chamber to a side of it where power had never before been. It accused Ministers, and for that he did not blame it. What he blamed it for was its declaring that Mi nisters did not cover the throne with their responsibility. This was to declare the Crown itself responsible, and responsible too, for a policy stigmatized as insufficient, pusillanimous, and pernicious. M. Thiers replied to Count Mole, and examined his asser.. tion, that the address was unconstitutional, because it tended to transfer the Government from one side of the Chamber to another. M. Thiers ridiculed such an incomprehensible ar gument. They were quite of the school of the Ministers of the Restoration, who always exclaimed that to drive them from power was nothing short of revolution. It was this stupid ob stinacy on their part, their identification of themselves with royalty and with public safety, that drove the Ministers of the Restoration into the fatal blunders and policy in which they foundered. He would not compare Count Mole with Prince Polignac, although one Minister was as unparliamentary as the other, and neither represented any other party than the Court. By dint of corruption and beseeching, tolerance and manoeuvring, such Ministers might rally a certain number of adherents, but not a number sufficient to carry on the Govern ment. Besides, although numbers were very decisive, the quality of the persons composing these numbers ought also to be taken into account. He declared, with the address, that the Ministry was insufficient. The interruptions during M. Thiers's speech were as frequent as those which assailed M. Guizot. M. Montalivet argued that the address was unconstitutional, because it declared that one of the three powers in the State tended to encroach beyond its sphere. In 1834 M. Barrot made the same accusation ; and what did M. Thiers, then Minister, reply ?.—why, that such an accusation was uncon stitutional. Here ended one of the most interesting and agitated sit tings of the Chamber of Deputies, but so interrupted, we learn, that it would be impossible fur a regular report to con vey an idea of it. On Thursday M. de Lamartine came to the support of the Ministry, which he said, but more truly, represented the country, in having no certain or numerous majority. For the country itself was in precisely the same situation, without fixed opinion, or united interests, or persevering zeal. He would support the present Ministry, weak as it was, until there appeared a decided majority in the Chamber, on which another and a solid Administration might be based. M. Jouffray drew different conclusions from the state of things; he saw the country uncertain, because the Chamber showed it the example ; and he saw the source of the evil in the weakness of the Ministry, which it was imperative imme diately to remedy. The following is the amendment proposed by M. Amilhau, on which the Chamber was expected to divide on Thursday : " The Chamber of Deputies joins with you in offering con gratulations on the prosperity of the country. This prosperity cannot but have increased in the midst of the repose which France owes to the government of your Majesty, and to the regular accord of the other Powers of the State. Under a Government jealous of our dignity, and the faithful guardian of our alliance, France occupies (instead of will occupy) in the eyes of the world and in the esteem of nations the rank which belongs to her, and from which she cannot descend." The minority of the commission of the address have pre sented the following amendment on the paragraph respecting Ancona : " You announce, Sire, that the Austrian troops have quitted the Romagna, and that ours have quitted Ancona. France, after having hastened, by its occupation, the term of foreign intervention in the states of the Holy See, the independence of which is so highly interesting to us, has given a new testi mony of its respect for treaties, and of the justice which be comes a great nation." INFAMOUS PUB LICATIONS.—On Thursday Cyrus Davis, landlord of a public-house in Smithfield, appeared at Guildhall to answer a charge of assaulting a person named Pardy. The complainant is the man who, a short time ago, complained at Hatton•garden of attacks upon his character in an infamous publication, he himself being sus pected of a connection with another publication of the same name equally infamous. On the present occasion he had gone into a public-house, when a number of persons suspecting that he had come prying to pick up materials for his scan dalous chronicle, rudely handled him, in consequence of which one of them was taken to the station-house. It appears that Davis supplies the station-house with beer, and happening to call when Purdy was there, the latter applied some offensive expressions to him. Last week a libellous article had appeared in the publication referred to in reference to Davis and his wife, and Davis having reason to believe that Pardy had written it, and pro voked by his behaviour at the station-house, knocked him down. Davis was some years ago noted as a pugilist, and has the character of a quiet inoffensive man. Pardy denied having anything to do with the paper alluded to. Sir Peter Laurie thought the provocation had been great, if Davis could prove that Pardy had written the article reflecting on his character. He would adjourn the hearing till Sa turday, to give the defendant an opport unity, if he could, of showing that his suspicions were well founded. Pardy said that he would not trouble himself to come again ; he would indict the defendant. Sir Peter intimated that this abandonment of the case would seem to result from a fear that the authorship of the article would be fixed on him, and Pardy agreed that the hearing should be postponed. LINENDRAPERS' ASSISTANTS. —It appears that the new arrangements for the closing of linendrapers shops at eight o'clock in the evening do not work well. A cir cular has been issued by the " assistants," complaining that some of the masters, or " employers, as they call them, have violated their promise, and keep there assistants cell establish ments" open long after the hour specified. eall upon the public not to patronise the pledge-breakers. The excuse of the " principals" is, that the public will not perform their part of the arrangement by making their pur chases at an earlier hour. It is said that further meetings will be held on the subject, FRANCE. (From the MoiTing Chronicle.) ~_ WANDSWORTH COMMON—Near NIGHTINGALE LANE.
