A TIN PLATE WORKER: —Your very sensible letter (sensible in regard to its homely arguments against Protection) addressed to Sir Edward Bulwer Lytton, would have been inserted, but for the circumstance of its originating in an erroneous impression. The new candidate for the suffrages of the electors of Hertford shire has no title whatever to the rather questionable dignity of a renegade, Sir Edward having throughout the whole of his political career been strongly in favour of a retention of the corn-laws on the statute-book. Liberal in reference to all other principles, in regard to thi!, at any rate, he has been consistent. s 7-:. ~, : ~011 GUI if At , R / 4 V l ' p- .

' ' iio I'. , ';-, v•toenitliut LONDON, WEDNESDAY, SEPTEMBER 24, 1851 Whenever there are unusual movements among the Sovereigns of Christendom, it may be confidently argued that some political changes of importance are in preparation. Recently we have seen the contend ing factions of the Germanic Confederation silenced by the interview which has taken place between the Ki n g of PRUSSIA and the Emperor of AUSTRIA. Subsequently we have seen the latter traversing his possessions in Lombardy and receiving an ovation in the chief cities of the northern part of the Roman peninsula, not merely from Germans, Croats, and Tyrolese, but from enthusiastic bands of Italians and Hungarians. Court pageantries though these are, and consequently hollow throughout in every par ticular, they are not on that account by any means the less peculiarly significant. They betray on the part of the vanquished a degradation sufficiently abject to engender a feeling of hatred towards the originator of such lamentable abasement. Added to which, they reveal on the part of the conqueror a determination to turn his successes, if possible, to some material advantage not hitherto anticipated by the members of the Imperial Government. Viewed in this light, the pomp sur rounding the youthful KAISER in his journey ac quires a certain degree of interest and attraction. From the latest intelligence it appears that the Emperor of AUSTRIA had by the 15th inotant proceeded already as far as Verona, where his arrival had been celebrated with considerable cheering and a very general illumination. Doubtless the municipal authorities had actively prepared for the advent of the SOVEREIGN, having, of course, a wholesome dread of causing any emotion on his part, either of displeasure or disappointment. Hence the cordiality displayed towards the EMPEROR by the complaisant Veronese. Viva l'lmperatore I may prove somewhat unpalatable as a street cry in Lombardy ; but dungeons and bombshells, with both of which the people of that province have been ren dered familiar, would be yet more unwelcome, and therefore "Yiva l'lmperatore" shout the Veronese! The spectacle to the rest of Europe is melancholy enough, and not the less so when it is remembered that of all the public men of the past half century, the one most energetically vilified by the Italians as a nation, is the very one who died in endeavouring to effect their emancipation. Almost as well might the Romans strive to blacken the fame of RIENZI, almost as de cently might the South American population execrate the memory of BoLIVAR, almost as justly might TOUSSAINT be detested in San Domingo, and WASH INGTON in the United States, and HorEa in Tyrol, and TELL in Switzerland, and KossuTu in Hungary —for, although it was unfortunately Leis calamity to be a King, CARLO ALBERTO was still struggling to Vindicate his position as a patriot when his horse was shot under him at Novara, and his soldiers were routed by the veteran forces of RADETZIKY, and, driven himself to the last extremity of despair, powerless, crownless, and hopeless, lie died soon afterwards at Oporto of a broken heart, if ever man died of one in this world—a hero, an exile, and a martyr. Yet the Lombards are ready now-a-days to hiss curses through their grinding teeth over his grave, and when the KAISER makes his appearance amongst them to raise their most sweet voices in shouts of " Viva l'lmpera tore I" This explains to us, we conceive, the mi serable situation of the Roman peninsula. This accounts for the political degradation into which its inhabitants have lapsed. Instead of welcoming those men who are really qualified to be their liberators, they turn against them out of the very multiplicity of their own suspicions, and at the same time are ready, in too many instances, to lick the dust at the feet of their foreign oppressors. Hence the gloom which has again settled over Italy. Her children, instead of lighting the torch of libera tion, are kindling bonfires in honour of the German EMPEROR: ; instead of girding up their loins for the vindication of their independence, they are dancing to the music of their fetters, and propitiating the smiles of the conqueror with serenades and illumina tions. Actuated by a similar anxiety to observe with vigilance the maintenance of despotism over the different races comprised within the boundary of his dominions, the Emperor of RUSSIA may be seen at intervals making a tour among its principal cities. Every additional visit of course is but a repetition of the same slavish enthusiasm. It cannot be conjec tured, however, for an instant by that wily potentate that in the acclamation of helots there can be any sincerity, or that he can count with any degree of confidence on the popular allegiance. With the young and inexperienced Sovereign of AUSTRIA it may be otherwise. Deceived into a credence in the cordia lity of his reception, he may calculate on the permanent obedience of Lombardy. Should such, however, be his impression at the present moment, future years will proclaim to him in characters of blood—characters traced on those very pavements trodden at this time by the im perial processions—that in this belief he was mis taken. The Italians may be ungrateful enough to calumniate their well-wishers, they may be desperate enough to bend the knee in homage before the repre sentative of that foreign tyranny under which they have groaned so long and hopelessly; but with these sentiments they cherish also an undying hatred of oppression, a hatred which Boomer or later must be gratified by the avenging terrors of u revo l u ti on . Whenever the explosion comes next—as come it wil most assuredly—it will for once and for all be sue-1 cessful. Next time the people will guard against all accidents by their unanimity. Next time they will avoid everything that could at all baulk them in their effort at their own emancipation. The experience of the last three summers will not be lost upon them, however b arren:of good those years may appear in regard to their Governments. When the tocsin is again rung, be it in Naples or in Turin, be it in Florence or in Milan, be it on the shores of the Adriatic or on those of the Mediterranean, the people of the Roman peninsula must rise like one man, without any despicable squabbles about precedence, if they would ever dream in earnest of reclaiming their violated rights, or of drivieg their German masters beyond the suburbs of Inspruck. Before they can hope to accomplish this mucb, however, the children of Italy should learn in some measure to discriminate between their friends and their enemies. They should learn to love those who are really soli citous to mitigate their sufferings, and to abhor, in stead of flattering, the authors of their social and political oppression. They should as sedulously en deavour to draw the right line of demarcation be tween thos e P r i nces who would redeem them to happiness and those who would confirm them in their miseries, as between the true-hearted patriot end the lawless and sinister demagogue—instead of vilifying, as they now do, the reputation of Ow late LONDON, King of SARDINIA, and paying their servile homage to the present Emperor of AUSTRIA. It is difficult to understand by what conceivable process of reasoning the professional alarmists—the agents or dupes of the Bears—have contrived to ex cite apprehensions in the public mind, and to depre ciate the value of all descriptions of property. We have seldom had so many auspicious auguries as to the future condition of the country. The harvest is abundant, and there is thus a certainty of ample food for the people, at reasonable prices, during the en suing year, while the quantity and quality of the produce should more than compensate to the farmers for its exceeding cheapness. The great cause of ex citement in the money market and of monetary con vulsions is thus removed for a considerable period. If there were no such countries as California or Australia, we might look for a steely flow of bullion to the vaults of the Bank ; but, with the sources from whence the precious metals may be obtained now fully available, we may confidently anticipate a large increase;greater than anything that has been heretofore witnessed in this country. We also hear of considerable demand for our manufactures affording full employ ment throughout the entire country to the working population. Neither is there any prospect of " a drain" of bullion, more especially since the Austrian loan—as we trust all other foreign loans will be— was unequivocally and decisively eschewed in the City. The Bank returns, too, offer equally propitious aspects. There have been considerable additions to the public and private deposits; and while the "notes unemployed" have been increased by nearly half a million of pounds sterling, the stock of bullion and the " other securities" have been augmented by more than a quarter of a million respectively. These are cheering pros pects for the country, and yet we find that quotations not merely of railway shares, but of almost every other description of property, have been forced down in the presence of every indication that should lead to the very opposite results. The only possible expla nation of these strange and almost unaccountable pro ceedings is the general inactivity at this period of the year. Men of almost every class, who have money at their disposal, are engaged in taking their pleasure. This is indeed the holiday season ; business is for the time being, cast aside, and there is a species of stagnation in the share market. Not from any distrust in the state of affairs, but simply because the legitimate dealers have for the present eschewed all transactions and are taking their ease in their respective inns, not only throughout the United Kingdom, but in all parts of the Continent of easy access. The Bears, wise in their generation, t a ke advantage of these circumstances. The ball is, or rather was—for the tide has already turned—in their hands, and they brought down prices to the very lowest rate. London and North- Westerns, Great Westerns, South-Westerns, in fact, shares in every company, from the heaviest dividend paying lines to the very humblest, were alike peppered. The ursine fraternity know not where to stop when they have once excited a panic among unreasoning and unthinking men, who sacrifice their property without being able to assign any possible reason for their fatuity except that " there appeared to be a falling market." Not knowing or not caring that such a result has been produced by the machinations of their inveterate opponents, they offer themselves up willing victims, so that the "sharpers," might feel some degree of shame at taking advantage of such unsuspecting innocence) when there was no credit to be derived from taking in unsophisticated spooneys. We would, then, once more emphatically urge upon benti file investers the propriety of not parting with their property at present prices, and also of not affording any facilities to their inveterate opponents. Let them look to the traffic receipts of the companies in which they are interested, and they will find that there is every prospect of fair prosperity for the future. There is no longer a blind and unreasoning confidence in boards of management, inducing share holders to plunge into the wildest speculations. The evil is now altogether on the other side. It is an excess of caution—an undue distrust, that paralyses the action of the directors, and prevents them from making really beneficial, arrangements. Everything tends to show that railways have reached their lowest point, and that henceforward there will be a gradual but steady improvement. The dis covery of gold in Australia, as well as the continued influx from California, will tend to improve the value of railway shares and other pro perty of a fluctuating character even more than that of a steady amount like the funds. We believe that there is no longer any doubt as to the internal prosperity of the country fur such a time as our infamous monetary code will permit it to re main in such a happy condition. Even the most rampant Protectionists are compelled to admit that all but the agriculturists are enjoying almost unparalleled good fortune, and this in a perfectly legitimate manner, not the effect of any temporary excitement that might produce a fearful reaction, but of a steady demand for our produce, and, as a natural consequence, for labour of every description—" a fair day's wages being freely tendered for a fair day's work." Let persons possessed of any description of property, more especially i❑ railways, ponder on these things, which are matters of public notoriety, and determine not to dispose of it except under unsupportable pres sure, but patiently and steadily to await " the good time" which is most unquestionably "coming." Elsewhere in our impression of this evening will be found an announcement respecting KOSSIITH . B de parture from Constantinople, from which it must be evident that before many days have elapsed we shall hear of that illustrious exile's arrival at Southampton. A grand banquet will, of course, be thereupon forthwith given to the glorious leader of the Hunga rians, in order that to himself personally we may express our earnest admiration, affording him at the same time an assurance that the people of England still sympathise profoundly in his aspirations for the independence of his gallant Hungarians. We understand that the directors of the Electric Telegraph Company have received the report of their engineer, to the effect that the re-insulation of their lines upon the new principle, patented by Mr. Edwin Clark, is completed, and that they have determined forthwith to make a considerable reduction in their charges for the transmission of the messages of the public, and at the same time to simplify their tariff, by making it as far as possible uniform. DEURY-LANE.—To-morrow evening Mr. M'Col lum, the first of American equestrians, will take his benefit on the boards of old Drury, an occasion when we doubt not his very great abilities will be rewarded by a bumper. It will be seen from his announcement of the per formances that he has secured the services of such remark able performers as Madlle. Caroline and Mr. Eaton Stone. ROYAL SURREY ZOOLOGICAL GARDENS.--The proprietor of these gardens has, with much judgment, ar ranged the amusements so as to terminate shortly after nine o'clock. We recommend all our country and foreign visitors not to miss the opportunity of inspecting this place, satisfied that no exhibition in London will more amply repay them. The final decision of the Committee with reference to Dr. M. Thomson's coloured signal lights for the use of her Majesty's Navy has been laid before the Lords of the Admi ralty for their approval, and their Lordships, in accordance with this desire of the Committee, have ordered a dozen of lanterns to be made for the use of the Lisbon and Mediter ranean fleets. We shall now have an easy and simple method of signalizing at night to any extent we please, at a distance quite equal to the old system of angles, which could only yield nineteen signals, and these, too, at certain positions by particular ships, in a fleet not to be made out; but by this new method the lanterns, being hoisted as flags, are readily perceived by all ships, at a range of 3 1 ,4 miles nautical. THE GREAT CABLE TELEGRAPH. Contrary to expectation the coil of the submarine cable was not depo sited on board the Blazer by tide-time yesterday morning, as the workmen, tired of the toil, did not continue their hauling labours during the night. To-night, however, they will do so, a relay having been provided. At a late hour last night nearly 20 miles of the cable were on board, and the remain der will be there this morning, when the vessel will start for Dover. THE PREMIER IN WALES.—Lord and Lady John Russell and family arrived at the Victoria Hotel, Llanberis, on Wednesday last, from Carnarvon, ascended Snowdon on Thursday, and on Friday viewed the slate quarry, the pro perty of Mr. T. A. Smith, which now employs 2,10 men. On Saturday they were boating on the lake, and on Sunday attended Divine service. On Monday Lord John left riti the Pass of Llanleris, and the romantic scenery of Gwynant Yale, for Beddgelert. AMERICAN GOODS FOR THE EXHIBITION. . --The vessel Canada, arrived from Boston and Halifax, has brought from the former place three packages of goods, declared to be intended for the Great Exhibition of the Works of Industry of all Nations, in Hyde-park, and they have been forwarded to the building for that purpose. We read in the Avinement—M. Proudhon, at his own request, has quitted the Conciergerie for St. Pelagie. Just as he had packed up his books and papers, two police agents came to inquire how he would like to remove? "Ah ! you are coming with me ?" asked M. Proudhon. Th e y replied in . the affirmative. "Well, then," said M. P r oudhon, "we vi!ll walk ;" and the honourable Socialist went though Pans between the two agents. WEDNESDAY THE FRENCH REPUBLIC. The Paris journals of yesterday have been received. The Journal des Debats is still pertinacious in its protests against the prosecution of the press. Its ar guments are yet more vigorously advanced in oppo sition to the Government. Alluding to some attacks made upon its allusions to the state of discredit into which journalism is plunged at the present moment, it persists in maintaining that such is the case, and attributes the unpopularity of the newspapers gene rally to the violence and excesses they had adventured upon. _ _ A discussion of some warmth has also sprung up between the Presse and the National, M. DE GIRAR DIN assailing the latter in no measured terms for its sudden announcement that even in the event of the abolition of the electoral law of 1850, and the re establishment of universal suffrage, it would strongly oppose the proposition for the revision of the con stitution. He says : " The National finds in a partial revisio❑ of the constitution great inconveniences and great dangers. What are they ? The re-election of M. Louis Bona part• ? But is not his constitutional re-eligibility preferable to the eventuality of his unconstitutional re-election ? It is perhaps a great piece of clumsi ness on the part of the National to place M. Louis Bonaparte iu balance with the constitution. As for us, we will not do that honour to any man, whomsoever he may be. Let the National take care that it is not more Bonapartist than we are with out meaning it. With universal suffrage reestab lished, we should seek in vain for a pretext for refusing the revision which the majority demands. The National, no doubt, does not consider the Constitution perfect : how then does it not fear in refacing the partial revision in spite of the re-establishment of universal suffrage, that it may be accused with an ap pearance of reason with desiring to keep the people under guardianship, and of decreeing distrust of universal suffrage, the expression and guarantee of the Republic If the people be made to believe that the Parliamentary minority refuses the revision because it distrusts them, and holds them in suspicion, take care that they do not avenge themselves on that distrust by voting unconstitutionally for the can didate whom the minority would wish to exclude. Take care by this impolitic re fusal not to compromise the Constitution, which you think you preserve. It would suffice, in our opinion, for the lepublicans to appear to wish for a republic which cannot be discussed, for the republic to be immediately condemned by the absence of the principle which caused it to exist—discussion. If the National believes national sovereignty, represented by universal suffrage, capable of betraying itself, and of abdicating, by giving up the republic—such a people would appear to us unworthy of liberty, and we should blush to defend them, if they should so abandon themselves. When we propose partial revision, it is not that we doubt the result of total revision with universal suffrage. Total revision would give us the republic with the same fidelity as partial revision would preserve it to us." The Constitutionnel continues to demand the repeal of the electoral law of 1650, and to harp upon the candidateship of the Prince DE JOINYILLE. A preposterous article in the Union endeavours to prove that the national expenditure was less under the Restoration. The Minister of the Interior, who left Paris on Saturday morning, for the department of the Marne, of which he is representative, and which he had not visited for two years, had, according to letters from that department, been received by his constituents with the greatest warmth. The Hon. Minister was shortly expected to return to Paris. Several of the persons recently arrested in Paris in connexion with what is called the Paris conspiracy had been set at liberty within the last few days. It is said that the number now in prison does not exceed sixty. Lord BROUGHAM had arrived in Paris, on his way to Cannes. The Bourse was not quite so firm on Monday. The Five per Cents. opened at 92f. 20c., and fell to 91f. 70c4; they closed at 91f. 75c. for the end of the month; the Three per Cents. closed at 56f.15c.; Orleans Railroad Shares, 860 r.; Rouen, 572 f. 50e.; Havre, 2,".0f.; Great Northern, 56f. 25c.; Avignon, 207 t. 50c.; Vierzon, 426 f. 25c.; Basle, 150 f.; Bordeaux, 382 f. 50c.; Paris and Strasburg, 352 f. 50c.; Tours and Nantes, 262 f. 50c.

SPAIN. Intelligence from Madrid is to the 18th instant inclusively. It was understood that their Royal Highnesses the Duke and Duchess of MorirrENsimt bad announced their intention to be present at the accouchement of Queen ISABELLA. The Madrid Gazette publishes the telegraphic dis patch from the Spanish Minister at Paris, relative to the destruction of LOPEZ and the remnant of his band, which was given some days ago by the French journal ; and the Herald° states, that it was also asserted that " a second expedition of the pirates had been taken at sea by the Spanish forces." All the journals express great satisfaction at these news, and they caused equal pleasure to the population. The Clamor Public° mentions a report, that the Spanish Minister at London has informed his Ca binet, that the English Government has determined to employ its forces to protect Spanish interests in Cuba. The Government, notwithstanding the favour able news received, was still resolved to send troops to the colony. MADRID BOLSA, SEPT. 17.—The Three per Cents. were done at Madrid on the 18th, at 35 cash ; the Five per Cents., at 161; Coupons, 81; Debt without Interest, 6 1-16. GERMANY. According to some accounts at Vienna, dated the 20th instant, the subscriptions of the new loan already reached 47,678,000 florins. The Messrs. ItoTnscuiLD of Frankfort and Vienna have sub scribed for 5,000,00011, the Duke DE LEUCHTENDERG for 6,000f1., and General Ilayn,au for 300,0001 1 ! The Duke's contribution is considered very small in proportion to his fortune, and that of the General excessively high. The Count DE CHAMBORD is at present on a visit to the Archduke 'MAXIMILIAN D'ESTE at Ebenzweier. He is to pay a visit to Ems, and to return to Frohs dorff by the 27th. Re intends to pass the winter at Venice. Negotiations are said to have been entered into between the Austrian Government and that of Pied mont for the formation of a railway from Turin to Milan. ITALY. Accounts from Rome of the 11th inst. state that the Papal Government has determined to enrol 6,000 Swiss. The Austrian troops are then to withdraw from the Marches and the Romagna. On the 17th the Emperor of AUSTRIA visited the forts and the barracks of Verona, and afterwards received deputations from several provinces, and the towns of Trent and Roveredo. His MAI/EST! after wards proceeded to the shooting grounds of St. Mas simo, and took a part in the exercise with the Duke Of MODENA. Since then the Vienna Gazette, of the 20th, pub lishes the following telegraphic dispatches from the Governor of Lombardy to the Minister of the In terior:— "Inspruck, Sept. 19.—Ilis Majesty the Emperor, coming from Peschiera, arrived yesterday evening at half-past five o'clock at Riva, and was received with the greatest enthusiasm." "Brescia, Sept. 19.—His Majesty the Emperor ar rived here to-day at two o'clock in perfect health. His Majesty was received with enthusiasm." ANOTHER GARROTE ROBBERY.—On Sunday night Mr. Williams, of Goswell-street, was attacked in Old-street road, Shoreditch, by some ruffians, who placed some instru ment round his neck and squeezed him so tightly that he became insensible, and whilst in that state took from his pockets a 40/. and a 301. Bank of England note, 31, 108. in gold, and 15s. 6d. in silver, afterwards getting clear away with their booty. Mr. Williams is only able to describe one of his assailants, a young man about 25, fair complexion, and wearing black clothes. THE ARMY.—The following reliefs will take place in the spring of 1852 ;—Royals, 2d Battalion, Cork to Nova Scotia; 40th Regiment. Cork to Malta; 85 Regiment, Portsmouth to Malta; rth Regiment, Cork to Gibraltar; 31st Regiment, Cork to Gibraltar; 76th Regiment, Malta to Nova Scotia; 44th Regiment, Gibraltar to Canad a; 42d Regiment, Nova Scotiahome ; 97th Regiment, Nova Scotia home ; Rifle Brigade, 2d Batallion, Canada home. The Government of Hong-Kong have passed an ordinance for the regulation of trial by jury in that colony. The ordinance copies the English model with two exeeptions —one, the adoption of a jury of six, instead of twelve; the other, the substitution of the rule of a verdict by the majority instead of one by a unanimous jury, BARON PLATT ON THE USE OF THE KNIFE.—At the recent assizes at Liverpool, a stabbing case from Man chester was heard before Baron Platt, who, in summing up to the jury, used these words :—" One of the witnesses tells you that he said to the prisoner, ' If you use your knife you are a dunned coward ;' I say also ( continued the Learned Judge, apparently in deep thought) that he was a damned coward, and any man is a damned coward who will use a knife."—Munchester Courier. THE CORPORATION OF THE CITY OF LONDON. — It is rumoured that it is the intention of the Right lion. Sir James Graham, Bart. M.P., early in the ensuing ses sion of Parliament, to bring; in a Bill for the purpose of enlarging the area of the city of London, and effecting a variety of reforms in the constitution of the Corporation. It is further understood that the Bill of the Right lion. Baronet will be sanctioned by the Government, and that every available effort will be made to carry the measure as early as possible.—Advertiser.

The sales of Cotton at Liverpool were estimated at 5,000 bales, of which 1,500 American were taken for export. The market was firm. The sales include 4,250 American, 150 Pernam and Maranham, at 54d. to *I., and 500 Surat, at 3id. to 4id. per lb.—The Snare Market improved again, and prices were looking up. The Produce Market shows an improved feeling this morning, and as consumption steadily increases, the heavy stocks which now embarrass the holders will be gradually worked off. It is not believed that any very large quantities of Sugar, Coffee, or other produce, are Diktat, and on the way to arrive. Advices must have gone out some time since to the more distant producing countries to stop all further shipments as much as possible. The Atlantic steamer from the United States, whose arrival has been telegraphed from Liverpool this morn ing (but of course neither letters nor papers have yet been received), is understood to bring about 700,000 dollars. Business throughout the States continued to improve, but the money market remained without alteration. Stocks were higher and the exportation of specie has not diminished. The market for breadstuffs was inactive, without change however in the quotations, and holders were firmer. In cotton a fair amount of business was doing at former quotations. In provisions, pork steady, with a fair demand; mess was selling at 15f, prime at 13i. Freights unchanged, and business limited. Exchange on London, with moderate sales, 110 k to }. Politically the Atlantic brings intelli gence that some of the persons concerned in the expe dition of Lopez had been pardoned by the Captain-Ge neral of Cuba. One had arrived in the United States, and the remainder of those released were daily expected. An attempt to arrest a fugitive slave in Lancaster, county Pensylvania. has resulted in the owner being shot, and a subordinate officer mortally wounded. The Royal Mail steam-ship Avon, is reported, from Southampton. Her specie freight consists of 1,487,471 dolls., or say about 300,0001. sterling, from the South Pacific ports, California, Panama, and the West Indies. Of this amount 860,000 dolls. are in silver, and 627,400 dolls. in gold. The accounts represent the crops in general to have exceeded those of last year. Yesterday the Foreign Exchanges exhibited a remark able improvement in all places, which leads to the con clusion that before the eud of the year we shall be in constant receipt of large remittances of bullion and specie from Paris, Holland, and the German ports. The principles of free trade are evidently gaining ground on the Continent, and even in France, which has been their most determined opponent. We learn from the Hague this morning, that the Government has officially notified to the merchants that in future Dutch vessels will be received into the French ports on the same footing of duties as paid by the merchant vessels of France; and reciprocally French ♦essels in Dutch ports. The meeting of Messrs. Costelli and Co.'s creditors takes place to-day, at the office of Messrs. Oliverson Lavie, in Old Jewry, when the balance-sheet prepared by Mr. Coleman, the accountant to the Bank of Eng land, will be presented. Report speaks unfavourably of the statement, as showing a great deficiency of assets. The extraordinary rise of yesterday in Consols has been fairly maintained this morning, but business has been less active as the speculators for the fall who had operated so extensively on Monday, and were caught so unexpectedly by the rise, bought in the principal amount of their Bear operations yesterday to the ex tent, as it is said, of a million of stock. Consols have been bought as high as 961 for Account, and 96i for Money; but prices have since slightly receded. and we now que,te them 961 j for Money, and 961 a for Account, with rather a quiet market. Exchequer-bills have bees marked 435. to 465. premium. The 'Foreign Market has been dull, and with little demand. Mexican are marked 26i to 26i. ; Danish Three per Cents. 784 to 79 ; the Five per Cents. 101 h to 101 i ; Russian Four-and-a-Half per Cents 1011 to 1011 ; Belgian Four-and-a-Half per Cents. 94} to 94 Exchahge at 25f. The Railway Market may be reported as altogether favourable. There is a steady and firm demand at the improved quotations, which were obtained yesterday, but without any further advance.

Captain Penny's second ship, the Sophia, h as arr i ve d a t Woolwich, and will be paid off at that port. The body of the aeronaut Tardini, who made an ascent on Sunday the 14th, from Copenhagen, was found near Kaliebodstrand. ►SUICIDE IN BATTERSEA-FIELDS.—On Monday afternoon, between the hours of two and three o'clock, a person who was crossing Battersea-fields, observing the body of a man lying, as if asleep, he called to the recumbent person, and warned him that his hat would be stolen, but, not receiving any answer, he approached, and, upon turning over the body, tound it quite inanimate, and near it a pool of blood. The unhappy man had laid the muzzle of a pistol, which was found near him, to his heart, and shot him self. Death must have been instantaneous. Upon his per son were found half a crown and some coppers, and a letter without a signature or direction. Deceased is apparently between 20 and 30 years of,age. ARCEIDEACONEY OF TAUNTON.—WE have great pleasure in stating that the Bishop of Bath and Wells has appointed the Rev. G. A. Denison, his Lordship's examining chaplain, Vicar of East Brent, to the Archdeaconry of Taun ton, vacant by the decease of the Venerable Archdeacon Hamilton.— Chronicle. SUNDAY IN LANCASHIRE.—The Preston Chronicle states that " the Botanical Society of Wigan held an exhi bition of flowers on Sunday last ;" and in another column that "on Tuesday last two boys were fined 2s. each for bathing in the river on the preceding Sunday." _ _ HOP INTELLIGENCE.—Picking has progressed in the past week, where there were any hops, and of these many were left behind as unripe. The crop falls considerably short of expectation. There is one thing to cheer the farmer— that good samples will obtain high prices, which. we trust, will serve as inducement to bestow some attention on the picking. General accounts state the crop to fall short, bat as being mostly good in quality where free from disease. In the hop districts the hop duty is laid at only 100,0001.; in the Borough and elsewhere, at 115,000/. —Canterbury Journal. BRISTOL CHURCH UNION.—We have authority for stating that, at a committee of the Bristol Church Union, specially summoned on Monday last, it was unanimously resolved that a sub-committee be appointed to draw up a do cument, to be submitted to the next general meeting, with the view of repudiating the statement of the Archbishop of Canterbury, respecting the opinion of the clergy on the matter of episcopal ordination."—Chronicle. By the death of the Venerable Archdeacon Hamil ton, the living of Loughton becomes vacant. The value is 4581., with residence, and the patron is Mr. W. W. Mait land.— C l / 4 elmsford Chronicle. COBBLING SURGERY.--A cobbler has just located himself at Spalding. and attracts attention with the follow ing address outside his shop :--" Surgery performed upon old boots and shoes by adding of feet, making good the legs, binding the broken, healing; the wounded, altering the con stitution, and supporting the body with new soles.
