TEMPLE BAR, (Prom the Times. ) What is to be done with Temple-bar ? From a dis ctission which took place a day or two ago in the Court of'Common Council, we infer that even the city authori ties are convinced that the Bar cannot longer remain where it is,- or as it is. The form in which the discus sion arose was this :—A petition, signed by some fifty or sixty persons, inhabitants of the parish of St. Dun stan-in-the-West, had been presented to the Common Council. The petitioners opposed themselves to the re moval of Temple-bar, on the ground that it is an old landmark ; that the removal of it is not rendered neces sary by the requirements of trade or commerce, nor is it desirable for any reason connected with the approaches to the city. The petitioners admit that the traffic is frequently checked just in the neighbourhood of the Bar, but they attribute this circumstance to the confluence of the Holborn and Fleet-street traffic at the end of Chancery-lane. It is furthermore alleged by the fifty-six gentlemen who have sig ned the petition, that the wishes of the neighbourh ood are decidedly op posed to any removal of the Bar. Now, it certainly would appear that, whatever the merits of the case may be, Temple-bar will not be saved by the argu ments of this select knot of petitioners. Temple-bar is an ancient landmark. Does the landmark indicate any in . formation which may not be as fully and far more con veniently conveyed in twenty other ways. Cannot the limits of the city be as well assigned at this particular spot by means of pillars or posts as at its other boundaries? If, then, the city bounds may be as effectually marked in many other ways as by the present dingy arch, is there any merit in the arch itself which should induce us to leave it standing ? Certainly it has no claim from its antiquity. Sir Christopher Wren—more shame to him ! —built it as we see it. We believe we express the com mon opinion—it is most strongly our own—that the Bar, architecturally speaking, is a mere deformity. It is no thing better than an ugly, dingy nuisance. Such points, however, turn upon the taste of individuals, and we are quite willing to leave this one to the opinions of the majo rity. Then the petitioners say that the Bar is no obstruction to commerce. This is a hasty assertion, and does not tally witb.thof set 4 the case. If the west end of London could be broUght to think of the east end as of a city lying in the same latitude and longitude, we believe the city shopkeepers would find their account in the change. As far as the influence of Temple-bar is felt, it operates to keep up the distinction between the town of shops and the town of customers. Many a lady would extend her drive to Ludgate-hill, if a progress into the city did not present itself to her imagination in the light of an Arctic Searching Expedition. In the interest of the city' shopkeepers, then—and we presume their interests are in some degree involved in the " requirements of trade and commerce,"—it is highly desirable that the distinc tions between east and west London should be oblite rated as soon as possible. The best shops in this me tropolis lie to the east of Temple-bar. It is a pity the residents in Mayfair and Belgravia cannot be induced to give them a trial. We now pass to the third reason given by the 56 pe titioners. The removal of Temple-bar is not desirable, they tell us, for any reason connected with the approaches to the city. Reasons such as those here alluded to must naturally fall under one of two heads. It is a question M beauty or a question of convenience. As one. of beauty, as we have before said, we consider •Tesaple!bar . simply hideous. Look at it from east or west, and it falls upon the eye as a kind of structure fit for an execution, or some public ceremony of that de scription. Take the question as one of convenience. The narrow gorge of Temple-bar is in itself an obstruc tion to the traffic, as every omnibus and cab driver knows to his cost. Granting, however, that the constant check of the traffic at this point must be referred to the nar rowness of the street at this part, rather than to the fact that a great lumbering arch has been erected at the narrowest point of the street, still, in order to widen the street, we must begin by getting rid of the arch. It has been suggested that the houses may be pulled down on either side, and that a Temple-bar—not the present smoky old abomination, but a new Bar, ; splendid with youth, should be erected in the middle of the street, and stand there, just as on the Parisian Boulevards we see the Portes St. Denis and St. Mar 'tin. Space is too valuable at this point for any such fopperies, even were it desirable as a matter of beauty to have an arch at all at that particular spot. But thus much we would say :—Let the present arch be pulled down, and then we will consider the propriety of build ing a new one in its place. If the proposition should receive the assent of a hundred men of sane intellect we will withdraw from all opposition in the matter. There must be no check given, even were it of the slightest kind, to the continuous traffic in the principal thorough fare of London. An arch at this spot, unless its span were doubled at the least, must operate in that direction. As to the obstruction at this point being due to the confluence of the Holborn and Fleet-street tides at the corner of Chancery-lane, we would simply ask these gentlemen if Chancery-lane does not tell both ways. It adds to the Fleet-street traffic and it eases it. As many drays, waggons, cabs, &c., pass northward up Chancery-lane to Holborn as southward down Chancery lane into Fleet-street, but we have never heard that the inhabit ants of Holborn have complained of any obstruc tion at their end of the lane in consequence of the con tributions of Fleet- street. One only point remains unconsidered. The fifty-six petitioners tell us they represent the wishes of the neighbourhood. Now, this is not altogether a matter which we would rest upon the wishes of the neighbour. hood, for it is a public concern ; but certainly their wishes would have great weight with us. Is it not a little strange that they could not come forward and ex press their own wishes, if they really desired that the good old nuisance should remain a fixture ? We all know Low easy it is to get up a petition ; but by the common apprehension this will be regarded as a failure to procure a sufficient number of signatures. From all we have beard—and we have received a good many communica tions upon the subject—the shopkeepers of Fleet-street and Ludgate-hill would be very glad to get rid of Temple bar to-morrow. They would be blind indeed to their own interests were it otherwise. Strange, then, as it may appear, after a brier consideration of the reasons on which the petitioners rested their case, the City Lands Co'nmittee reported in favour of its prayer, and recommended that 1,5001. should be devoted to repairing and restoring the building. The Common Council, how ever, to their credit be it recorded, have rejected the report by a considerable majority, and, at no distant date, we trust it may be in our power to announce to our readers that one of the most necessary, and certainly the least costly of all possible city improvements, is forthwith to be effected. LONDON CIIA.RTERED BANK OF AUSTRALIA. The first ordinary general meeting of shareholders in this company was held yesterday at the company's offices 17, Cannon-street ; Mr. Duncan Dunbar in the chair. The SECRETARY having read the notice convening the meeting, proceeded to read the report, from which it appeared that after much negotiation with the govern ment a charter had been obtained in December last, the effect of which was to make the shareholders a corporate body, under the title of "The London Chartered Bank of Australia," with limited liability and with privilege to bank in any part of Australia. Subsequently, efficient officers had been appointed, the necessary amount of capital had been called up, and suitable premises had been secured in London. In January last the deed of settlement had been signed and ratified with the Board of Trade, and on the 7th of April a certificate was obtained authorising the bank to commence business. The colonial inspector and local managers had sailed in the "Har binger," and had arrived in the colonies towards the latter end of April, and satisfactory advices had been received from Mr. Falconer (the inspector) down to the 7th of June. Local boards had been formed, and desirable banking premises had been obtained in Melbourne and Sydney, and Mr. Falconer had proceeded to Geelong to establish a branch in that town. The report concluded with confident anticipations as to future success, and sub mitted to the proprietors the following balance-sheet : Liabilities.—Capital paid up, 367,3271. 10s. ; balance of profit and loss account, after deducting expenses of London office, salaries, stationery, rates, taxes, insurance, &c., 4,0171. 16s. 4d.; total, 371,3451. 6s. 4d.

The researches made by the writer lead to a reason able conviction that the Whip was originally the pro perty of Thomas Barrett Leonard, Lord Dacre, in the reign of King Charles the Second. They are supported by the following facts :—Thomas, Lord Dacre, was the eldest son of Francis, by Elizabeth, daughter and co heir of Paul, Viscount Bayning, of Sudbury. This Tho mas, Lord Dacre, was on the sth of October, 26 Charles 11., created E ar l o f S ussex, an d was then Lord of the Bedchamber to his Majesty.

The great and continued mortality in Garden-place has struck the survivors in this locality, and in 'the neighbouring streets and courts with panic ; ma n y o f the inhabitants have fled precipitately— some to places in neighbouring tives. o f tiiei v r i l f l a a t g e es n o w a h c e o r o e u t n hey had ta appears rs friends as and yet e tto r haveela been obtained, but 41 men, women, and children, have taken refuge in the schools attached to the union work house, and up to this time not one of them has suffered in the least. One family obstinately refused to remove —the child had just died ; earnest warning was given that another child would, in all human proba bility, be seized, unless instantly removed. No persuasion was of any avail. The same night this child was attacked, and died the following day. Again the survivors were urged to remove, still they refused ; the next day the mother was seized and died on the day following. At length the forlorn widower consented tQ abandon the disease-haunted tenement, but not until another poor boy had been stricken down with so severe an attack of premonitory diarrhoea that it was necessary to take him to the infirmary. The measures carried into operation appear to have had a decided effect in checking the progress of the epidemic, though it is breaking out in South Stockton and some other parts of the town ; but, by the thinning o f th e popula tion, their rem ova l to the House of Refug e, and the constant visitatio n o f th e a ff ec t e d l oca li t i es b y five medi cal visitors any great development of the disease appears for the present, at least, to be prevented. DARLINGTON. The district medical officers, who have made a house to house visitation, with a view to ascertain the extent of the prevalence of diarrhoea, have returned as the re sult of their first day's visitation, 86 cases.

We derive from other sources the following items of information on the subject of cholera : The Committee of the Sdamen's Hospital Society have issued a placard addressed to all captains of ships and seamen generally, earnestly exhorting all captains to send every seaman, on the first symptom of diarrhoea appearing, on board the Hospital Ship, Devonshire, lying near the Dreadnought, off Greenwich, which is set apart solely for immediate attention to such cases, and where admission is freely given at any hour. The Metropolitan Dispensary, Fore-street, Cripplegate, has suspended the rule requiring a letter of recommendation with reference to poor persons suffering from diarrhoea, cholera, or other bowel complaints, who may therefore obtain medicine and advice at all times upon application at the dispensary.

On Saturday ni g ht th e Caradoc arrived from OCT Conslotan tinople on the 4th, and Besika the sth. On the 4th the declaration of war was published in the mosques with a delay to the Russians of 15 days, to enable them to eva cuate the principalities if they chose. In the meantime the greatest enthusiasm prevailed among the Turks, and the Christians were proportionately alarmed, and many were packing up to get away. Notwithstanding the positive announcement by some of the English papers, that the - fleet was ordered to the Bosphorus, it was lying at Besika-bay on the sth, and there is little probability of a move before the 25th, the Period at which the delay granted to the Czar will ex pire, as our Ambassador h as f u ll power to convey his orders to Admiral Dundas to move up with his fleet, or to retrograde, as he may deem necessary. Lady Emily Dundas reached Malta by the Caradoc, which vessel went into dock immediately on her arrival, for repairs. The Ardent steamer, with the Triton in tow, the lat ter having broken her main shaft, arrived this morning early. The British squadron is far healthier than it was a month ago, but sickness still prevails. On board the Vengeance two fatal cases had occurred, and she had been sent to Tencdos to recruit the health of her crew. Lord W. Russell, who had been seriously ill, and on leave at Therapia, had rejoined, having fortunately re covered. The launch of the French ship Bayard, with a crew of 30 men on board, had foundered on the Ist inst., when within a short distance of her ship. She had been watering ; five men perished, 13 had been saved by the Rodney, and the remainder by other boats. The crews of both fleets exerted themselves nobly on the painful occasion. A very melancholy accident occurred on the 4th inst., as the Peninsular and Oriental Company's steamer Va letta was coming in, on her first voyage from Marseilles and Naples. Her second engineer, Mr. J. P. Parr, having the watch, and the weather being very heavy, the unfortunate young man was thrown by some accident between the cylinder and the side of the ship, and was so seriously injured that he died, in port, about three hours after the ship's arrival, and four from the time of the accident. Deceased was about 30 years of age, and married a short time before he left England. On the following morning an inquest was held, and during th• day he was conveyed to the convent of the Capuchins, and interred in one of the vaults under the chapel. The Ripon, with the hom ewar d ma il s f rom I nd i a, i s just telegraphed from Alexandria; the Valetta carries to Marseilles the portion of that mail sent through France, at nine a.m. PORTSMOUTH, OCT. 14. It is not yet decided whether the new Royal yacht will be constructed of wood or iron, but that point, will be settled on Monday next at a consultation before Prince Albert. The principal dimensions of the new yacht are already determined on, and are as follows : Length between the perpendiculars, 290 feet ; breadth, 40 feet ; tonnage, 2,200 ; horse power, 600, for paddle propulsion. It is not yet known, either, we believe, who will construct the vessel. Mr. Mare is spoken of now as most likely to have the honour. The Fairy Royal yacht, Captain Crispin, embarked the Royal children from Osborne this morning, and brought them to Gosport under the same honours as would have been paid to their illustrious parents. A special train left about 10 o'clock with their Royal Highnesses for London. Mr. Woodcock, chief engineer R.N., late of the Barra couta, was yesterday released from imprisonment on board the Victory. A divisional court-martial was held in the Royal Marine Artillery Barracks, Portsmouth, this morning, to try Colour-Sergeant Joseph Miles, Bth company of the Royal Marine Artillery, for having attempted to ob tain meat gratis from the contractor, Mr. James Den nison. The following officers composed the Court : Captain Holloway, president ; First Lieutenants Ire land, Brydges, and Steile ; and Second-Lieutenant Festing. Lieutenant Steile was the officiating judge advocate. Two witnesses only were examined for the prosecution—the contractor, Mr. Dennison, and his clerk, Mr. Fletcher. The prisoner then handed in his defence, and called a witness, Sergeant Haller, to speak in his behalf. At the conclusion of this witness's evi dence the Court adjourned. RAILWAY TRAFFIC RETURNS.
