A. terrible catastrophe lately threatened to plunge the Reiman population once more into that abyss of political degradation from which it had been very nearly extricated. A conspiracy more tremendous in guilt, or more blood-thirsty in character, has never been detected since the days of CATALINE. It evinces in Prince METTERNICH an audacity like that of IllsaAr, and a ruthlessness like that of CASAR BORGIA. Had not the villanous machinations of the Austrian Cabinet been divulged, and resolute mea sures instantly adopted for their frustration, this year would have been memorable in the annals of history for a massacre as diabolical as that of the Huguenots. Happily, however, the infamous plots of Vienna were discovered in time, and the good fortune which bits hitherto attended the movements of the present glorious Pontificate, did not desert the great and admirable Pins in the moment of his greatest peril. Austria is discomfited and Rome is free. We re gard, in fact, the occurrences which have recently transpired in the Eternal City as at once so remark able and decisive as to render the complete emancipa tion of Italy no longer doubtful. The very morning which was destined by the retrograde party to witness the abasement of the reforming PONTIFF and the butchery of his loving people proved, on the contrary, the one in which his liberal government attained its apogee. Whatever may be the subsequent contri vancies of the absolutists there can now be no hesita tion as to the final success of the generous Govern ment of the Sovereign PONTIFF. Authentic accounts of the extraordinary circum stances to which we are alluding have arrived in England. Before the accuracy of the first indefinite rumours were substantiated by correspondents of un questionable veracity, we must acknowledge that we were incredulous as to the truth of such horrible and sanguinary schemes, With a vivid remembrance of the incorporation of Cracow, and the buccaneering ex pedition in Gallicia, we could not conce ive to ourselves the possibility of the Austrian Administr ation adventur ing upon a crime so gigantic in atrocity. The narrative of these proceedings is n ow , h owever, as entirely beyond unbelief as the turpitud e o f the conspirators is utterly without palliation. It would appear that the anniversary of that memorable amnesty which first showed to the people of Rome the clement dis position of the new POPE, was selected by the agents Of FERDINAND as the most fitting period for crushing the spirit of Freedom in the Papal States. Amidst the majestic ceremonies of tha , i, day, when the grate ful populace of Rome were manifesting their love for their SovEREIGN, the hired assassins of Austria were to mingle with the multitude as.,embled on the Piazza del Popolo, and there, at the foot of the colossal statue of Pope Plus IZ., to offer up the lives of many thousands to the offended genius of Despotism. The salvation of those lives is universally attributed to the vigilance and patriotism of a second RlENzl— called CICRRONACCIO. Although simply a Roman citizen, CICERoNAccio is virtually a tribune in in fluence, and a prince in position. The uneasiness which manifested itself among the people as the day of public rejoicings approached, seemed to aris e from a sort of intuitive sense of imp en di ng danger, and aroused a variety of suspicions in the heart of Czczaoiekccio. Iffy watchfulness was in the end rewarded by the ti rm ly detection of a conspiracy which threatened himself and his fellow citizens with a sudden and bloody death, immediately these hideous reve l at i ons un fokod hiss before the scrutiny of Ciczaor4c- y cto, he communicated with the popular members of the Roman nobility ; and, through the intercession of Prince BoaanzsE and Duke MASSIMO, obtained per mission from the Pormrr to render the schemes of the enemy abortive, through the instrumentality of the newly-organized National Guard. Simulta neously with the assembling of this military f orce , composed entirely of the patrician and middle classes of society, a placard was posted it• the different streets, at the suggestion of Ciczno sraccio, enumerating the principal personages wht• had conspired against Pope Pius and his people. Upon the appearance of that placard the excitement of the population exceeded all ordinary limits : the guilty accomplices were captured, and the Romans were avenged without the effusion of one drop of blood. GRASSELINI, the Governor of the city, fron: his evident connivance with the Austrian merce• naries, and especially from his traitorous inactivity throughout the whole of these transactions, was summarily dismissed from authority, and his post committed, pro tempore, to the charge of Alottitsaki, the popular advocate. Cavalier AIINARDI was only preserved from destruction at the hands of the mob by the walls of an oratory opposite S. Andrea dells Frate and the impassioned appeals of the renowned orator Father VENTURA. Such has been the perilous position of Pius IX. and his people ! Such have been the devilish projects of imperial Austria! Such has been the celebration of the amnesty ! The result has, contrary to the inten tion of the absolutists, confirmed the popular enthu siasm towards the Sovereign Poirrirr, it has placed the Liberal government of the Vatican on an indestruc tible foundation, above all, it has confirmed the re solution of the noble-hearted POPE in advancing boldly along the sublime path upon which he has adventured since the hour of his coronation. Although we deeply regretted the recent decision of the eleators of Lambeth, and their rejection of the liberal and enlightened politician who, during four successive Parliaments—indeed, from the period when the elective franchise was first bestowed upon them under the Reform Act—bad represented them with distinguished ability, undeviating integrity, and un remitting zeal, there is at least this consolation, that his successor is not one opposed to the principles which have ever been put forward in the Senate on behalf of that constituency. It is not a Protectionist, opposed to the further development of the great doctrines of free trade, and anxious again to re-establish, and, if possible, to perpetuate the baneful monopoly under which commerce was fettered and restrained, and our national prosperity retarded and impaired for so many years—it is Rot a Tory, opposed to all future reforms, and anxious to maintain the abuses that hare gradually accumulated about our institutions—that has been elected in his place. We should have been indeed F rati their parents (the real offenders) should be made ' liable for the expenses of their maintenance and education. The Spartan theory, that the children belonged exclusively to the State, might partially be Adopted ; whenever parents or friends took care of the child, he should be suffered to remain under their care, facilities for his education and the itie cultivation of his mind being afforded from the national Euhequer whenever they ire not possessed of means sufficient to provide it from their own resources ; but the in :tent that child is criminally convicted, prima facie evidence is afforded that they have neg'ected their luties,and unless that is satisfactorily rebutted,heshould it once be taken from their hands, and consigned to , hose national asylums where he may be brought up to a sense of his position, a knowledge of the duties he will be required to discharge in his future career, end prepared by a judicious discipline for their due performance. fled to have seen Mr. CHARLES PEARSON returned as a Member of the Legislature under other circumstanc, s, and enabled to direct his extensive experience and undoubted abilities to the service of his country in the highest sphere of action, the Senate. There are many points of the deepest interest and the most vital Importance to the public generally to be discussed and legislated on in the new Parliament. Much has already been effected since the constitutional theory of a populex representation ceased to be a mockery and a delusion, but far more rema;ns to be done, and we shall anxiously look for these ameliorations and reforms at the hands of our Liberal Government which their increased strength, not only in the Legis lature, but in that which alone constitutes the true basis of Ministerial power—the public opinion—will The Commission appointed by the Swiss Diet to concert measures required by the hostile attitude assumed by the Sonderbund assembled on the 31st ult., and it was decided unanimously that coercion is necessary to repress the attempts of the League. The Executive Council of Berne has instructed its Deputies to the Diet to make a motion for the destruction of the fortifications which the Sonderbund has undertaken to form wirhout the authority of the Federal Assembly. The addresses to the Diet from the democratic societies all express the firm resolu tion of the people not to fetter the action of the Le gislature by illegitimate manifestations. enable them to carry by triumphant majorities. There never was a period in our history when so many grave and serious questions demanded a prompt solution as at the present moment. On former occa sions some one or two topics absor:)ed the whole at tention of the people ; each was selected as the subject of party warfare, as the battle-ground on which the conflict was to be decided between hereditary oppo nents. Such was the Emancipation Act, the Reform Bill, the free-trade measures, and others, that enlisted the entire feelings and sympathies of the people with the belligerents on either side. In the excitement this created matters were lost sight of that would otherwise have required the most attentive considera tion. This is happily no longer the case. Parties are practically annihilated ; in place' of a blind and implicit obedience to particular leaders, each question is canvassed, and decided on its own particular merits, its inherent claims, without reference to the quarter from whence it has emanated, by whom brought forward, or by whom supported. " Measures, and not men," will henceforward prove the rule and not the exception, and we may therefore reasonably hope that many matters will be discussed and decided upon in the new Parliament which were heretofore postponed owing to the causes to which we have alluded. Mr. PEARSON, with a praiseworthy candour, pub• Lished a full exposition of his views and feelings on many of these subjects previous to the election. In his first letter to the electors he enters into a topic which must affect most materially the future pros pects, the happiness or misery of thousands and tens of thousands of our fellow-creatures, on the result of which must depend whether neglected and helpless children, those deprived of the affectionate care of parents, and left without any legitimate protectors or guardians, are to be plunged into vice and depravity, and wholly demoralised, until they become thieves and pickpockets, preying upon the industry and resources of others, habitual violaters of the law, perpetrators of offences of every degree of magnitude from the pet tiest theft to the most atrocious homicide, or converted into useful and industrious members of society, went had gone no farther—but if internal events rendered the employment of other means necessary, it would not fail in the duties which the interests of France imposed. As to Daly, France had no territorial or immediate interest there; but, having constant rela tions with that country, she ought to attach a great importance to the maintenance of peace there. The chief condition of that peace was the existence of a good intelligence between the Government and the people governed; the only true policy of France was to call attention constantly to that condition, and to favour everything that was calculated to maintain it. It was a truly noble sight to behold the Sovereign Pontiff carry ing out wholesome reforms—so grand a spectacle had not before been given to the world! There was no fear that the Pope would forget the principles of order and authority that ought elway a to preside ever such efforts; and all the European Governments would commit an enormous fault, he might almost say, a crime, if they did not support him with all their force in the difficult task which he had undertaken. They ought to be the more ready to lend their aid arid countenance, that the enterprise presented gri at chances of success. For Governments entering on the path of reform, the greatest danger was to be apprehended from the extreme partits; it was to the moderate section of society alone to which it appertained to carry out reforms—to accomplish moral revolutions. At the pre sent moment such a moderate party was beginning to appear in Italy. In presence of the extreme parties, the intelligent and moral forces of the country had compre hended the neces , ity of putting themselves forward. and supporting the Pope and his policy. The duty of France was to afford them aid—to support the Govern ment and the moderate party. Such was the natural mission of France everywhere, and particularly in Italy. " Count de Montalembert wished the Hon. Minister to say something on the late occupation of Ferrara by the Austrian troops. The act was certainly a very grave one. " The aiinister of Foreign Affairs—The act was by no means certain, and he was-inclined to think that it had not taken place. Consequently, he must be per mitted to remain silent both as to the fact and the right." In commenting on this exposé of M. Cauzofs po licy the Constitutionne/ says— " As regards Switzerland, M. Guizot has taken a part which is really convenient. He denies all the inten tions that have been ascribed to him, or rather of which facts, those incorruptible witnesses accuse him, but he persists in his policy. Thus he affirms that be never pretended to mix hineelf up in the internal affairs of Switzerland ; that he never meant to refuse it the right of modifyiug its constitution ; that be never thought of a foreign intervention as a means of restraining the flight of Helvetic liberalism. What then signify the threatening notes which he has caused to be addressed to the Vorurt ? What the complicity of the Cabinet with Austria ? There is a simple reason, according to M. Guizot, and that reason put forward with impertur bable aplomb is simply a calumny. The present movement of Switzerland, according to what M. Guizot says, is owing to the basest, the most subver sive passions. All the world may have belie - Ved that there is an honest and regular Government in Switzer land, but no, there are inily anarchy, baseness, and communism. This is what M. Guiz.4 combats, and not the impiescriptible right of Switzerland to govern itself, aed to put its constitution in harmony with new wants and interests. But this right which he would be disposed to recognise in. for example, a wise 6wil z -r -land, a Switzerland Austrian and Absolutist, he refuses to this anarchical •rlanii, which commits the faultof nutting in prawice the principles of the revolution whien have been so hildly repodiati-d by our Gov-,rnrnent. On the whole, it i s p.ainE.t an opinion, thieM. Guizot makes war in Switzerland ; it is against an opinion that he draws up flutes; it is to combat un opinion that he sus tains the insurrectional league of the s- yen cantons. Now remar k that this opinion according to him is in a majority iu ti e Helvetic republic ; it unites thirteen votes in the Diet. -It is then to the majority of & N it. z-rland, to the cantons the most populous, the richest, the most innustrieus, the most liberal, the most devoted to Fraud?, that be addressed the insu:ts of his speech of yesterda). An absurd and ciirorary to all our interests! a caluarny .hich is only a pr ete x t, and whichhides an adonte I part of servilely fo ll o win g Au s t ri a . in ' order to escape in appearance from the teal isolation in which the Government has so ably placed itself! In reply to the second part of the questions of M. de Flavigny, M. Guia . it could only fina on Italy, and on the noble etf arts of the Pope, some vague generalities, which do not engage him either with re.pect to the Holy Father or to Austria, and which leave him perfectly free to follow, accorddig to circumstances, one or the other." It is clearly the true interest of France to support and encourage in every possible manner the liberty of Switzerland and Italy ; but the national interests of France are sacrificed to the personal interests of the dynasty, which repudiates its revolutionary origin, and is content to reign by the grace of Austria, so that it is permitted to exploiter Spain as well as France, for the benefit of the family. A letter from Toulon of the 31st ult. says " We think we can announce in a positive manner that the Labrador carries out an order to the Prince DE JOIN VILLE to return immediately to Toulon with the squadron under his command. It . appears that the presence of our fleet on the coasts of Italy, at the moment when Austria is assuming a menacing atti tude, is become an embarrassment. The PRINCE in tended going this year, as the last, to Tripoli, in Barbary, and had already sent forward to these lati tudes the Panama steamer, which returned from Na ples on the 19th."

We read in a letter from Rome, of the 28th ult.— " I have already spoken to you of the almost cordial entente between the Cabinets of Vienna and Paris on the subject of the Pontifical States. Facts, the most plausi ble conjectures, and public opinion, as expressed in several journals publisheil at Rome, leave no doubt on this subject. The Austrian Government offers its me fiation to the Pope between his people and himself in the event of any disturbance, but it instructed its Nuncio at Rome to rate that it will intervene only if required to do so by the Pontifical Government. This, however, did not prevent its sending, on the 16th, 1,500 men— with artillery and matches lighted—into Ferrara; reckon. ing, without doubt, that at that date the revolution was consummated, and its intervention could not be retarded. And what was the French Government doing at the same time? It also offered, by a diplomatic note, the sam -ervices and the same intervention in the event of a re ,-olution. The note, it is true, added that the French Go vernment would defend the independence of the Pope against all, if any attempt should be made openly to shackle the reforms of Pius IX —an act of astounding magnanimity, says an Italian journal, when this inde pendence is guaranteed by treaties, and when, on the ether hand, it is impossible to suppose that any Govern ment would openly oppose the administrative acts of an , ndependent sovereign. But it is well, in order to corn elete the parallel, to add that at the same date—viz., the 16th ult., several French vessels showed themselves tt Civita-Vecchia. and remained there two days, with he intention, probably, of procuring for the Pontifical Government the same protection as that pr. rented by the Austrian troops at Ferrara. The same idea of pro -ction led to the manmuvring, at the same time, of a Neapolitan army on the frontier of the Poatifical States. Ellis is truly an affecting accord of protections." " The celebrated Nardoni, who, from a simple gen larme, became colonel of the carubineers, that is to ,ay, chiet of the police under the old administration, and who possessed the confidence of the ex- Governor, ii rasselini,. has just been arrested in the environs of Absent), after several days' minute researches. This ar rest is very important, for the man appears to be one -,f the principal chiefs of the conspiracy which has j !menaced Rome. The Pope had several weeks ago earning their daily bread by their honest labour. Mr. PEARSON states, and with truth, " that when one of these unhappy children gets carried to prison for his first offence, you may very safely predicate that in plunder or in prison expenses he will cost the nation from 100/. to 2001. before be is finally disposed of." There can be little doubt of this ; in deed, it would be easy to show that the amount is much underrated. It becomes, irdered him to return to Naples, his native o,,untry ; but whether he avoided the execution of this order, or whether he returned for the execution of the plot, it is certain that his presence was signalised at Albano from the 15th of this month, the day on which all was dis covered. He endeavoured to hide himself, by flight. from the active re-earches of 30 national guards, who Tontatteously started to capture him, but he could nut escape. Several other arrests, equally important, have also been effected, and will place in the hands of justice all the projects arid all the agents of the plot."' A letter from Bologna of the 28th ult. says— "The accounts which we receive from the different provinces prove that the conspiracy has not been con fined to the capital, for there have been disturbances in other parts. It is worthy or remark that these disturb ances have coincided with the arrival of the Austrians at Ferrara and the march of the Neapolitan troops towards the frontier. It is said that several thousands sent from Naples have arrived at Portello. Nothing is thought of but how to organize a resistance to the Austrians, in case they should attempt to invade the dominions of the Pontificate. The - Austrian General _is arrived at Fer.- rara, and iiapsrial troops are socarattlating on the banks of the Po. On Sunday the 25th, the anniversary of the death of the brothers Bandeira and their com panions, the young men of our town attended a mass I celebrated at the Church of Saint James, in honour of these unfortunate persons. The letters and journals from Rome confirm the important news lately circulated. The new Secretary of State has protested against the entrance of the Austrians into Ferrara. Colonel Freddi and Captain Oloi have been arrested near the frontier of Naples, and further arrests have been made at Rome in consequence of the disclosures by the papers which have been seized." We learn from Naples that the disturbances in the Calabrias are not yet at an end, and that armed bands continue to infest the mountains and forests. The gendarmes of the kingdom, which form a corps of 1,500 men, and the best part of the Neapoli tan army, almost exclusively furnish the detach ments sent in pursuit of the Calabrian brigands. A certain number have been captured, and the Govern ment will, it is believed, send them to the Lipau Islands, as they did last year, with the bandit chief DALARICO. Attacks upon property are still made, particularly upon the estates belonging to the great feudal lords. Letters threatening pillage and fire are still disseminated. The KING, on returning from his excursion, Landed at Paolo, in Calabria, with the view of acquiring correct inf)rmation as to passing events. Immediately after the return of hi:4 MAJESTY to Naples, on the 19th ult., a Council of Ministers was called to deliberate upon the measures required fl.r pacifying and improving the condition of the southern provinces and Sicily.

IMPROVEMENT OF THE METROPOLIS.—The sixth report of the Commissioners for the Improvement of the Metropolis has just been published. It chiefly relates to the idea which has more than once been brought forward, of erecting a public national record-office on a scale of magnitude commensurate with the greatness of the country, and the number and value of its public do cuments. The site which Mr. Bennethorne, the archi tect, proposes for the building is the Rolls estate, lying between Chancery and Feuer- lane. The eAimated cost of the building is 175. 0001., the fittings 31,5001. ; the houses and ground which it would be necessary to pur chase, 243 ,0001. ; making the total cost 450,0004 It is to be observed however, that this incluil, s the erection of several shert streets in the immediate neighbourhoed of the PrePosed record-office. FATAL CoAL-PIT ACCIDENT.—About nine o'clock on the morning of Wedues my last, a fatal and most dis tressing accident occurred ut a sinking pit, near Cause way -green, by which two men lost their lives. It ap pears that the deceased, whose names were Joseph Bir chen and James Woodhouse, ha i been descending the pit for the purpose of relieving two other teen who wart , working belo w , when, from some cause or other, part of the machinery broke, and they were dra.vn at a ti- then_ dens rate up the pit, and were thrown a great di.tai me .eto the air, hut escaped falling down the sh a ft :wa i n IhoweThe injuries they rec e iv e d, ver, were of so seleou a nature th a t t h ey s h ort l y a ft erwar d s d ie d.

Her MAJESTY, however, who is completely recovered, is about to proceed for a few days to Biofrio. The interior custom-houses of Spain are, it is said, to be definitively suppressed. then, a question whether, setting aside all the higher considerations that should influence Christian men, indeed every one possessed of the commonest feelings of humanity, it would not be a matter of sound economy, by which a great pecuniary saving of pounds, shillings, and pence would be obtained, to effect a total change in the present system. Mr. P ARSON says—" If the Legislature would combine courage with prudence, and would provide instead of prisons, asylums in which those unfortunates could be age and disciplined in h ar d wor k, su i ta b le to their and strengb, and where th e y cou ld, at the same time,e receive appropriate instruction, combined with moral and religious training, they would become in after life good labourers and servants, good soldiers and good sailors, or good colonists of a value to the nation, equal in amount to the sum they cost the nation under the present system." Why, then, should an experiment from which such happy results may fairly be looked for, remain untried? The present state of the law n rel o a f ti n n i g ne t t o ee m n i o n r or t s w i e s• n a t3 r perfect in t a n omaly, as a young ma of age, fully educate d, and who ought every respect to be responsible for his actions, may incur debts, and obtain the property of tradesmen with perfect im punity—he may be possessed of considerable property, and have all the ability to pay, and yet he will be justified in treating his creditors with contumely, and in wholly refusing any satisfaction for the contracts into which he may have entered—he may laugh at their folly, and many an honest tradesman may have to bewail his misplaced confidence ; but let an unhappy ap operationp les,or c b oi i fn l d t , ahne o y f c ten rdiemgir o ne r ael eleven bernegm ahnid years, purloin a few self7l'it forthwith h he i i nthe s committed to gaol, Bogged publicly presiding oder magistrate, privately, according to the w hi m of the e and his ruin for life unhesitatingly fiv in cid decided on.

MADRID BOLSA, JULY 30.—The Three per Cents. 26i for cash ; the Five per Cents, 17k. Exchange on London, 49 40. We have received the Paris papers of Wednesday. A question put by Viscount FLAVIGNY in the Chamber of Peers on Tuesday, elicited from M. GIIIZOT the following programme of the policy, which he intends to pursue with regard to Switzerland and Italy :-- " The Chamber could not be surprised if he spoke on these two subjects with a certain reserve, For tunately, in neither case had the policy of France anything to conceal. In what related to Switzer land, he wished first of all to set aside two false and irritating notions. It was alleged that France intended meddling with the internal affairs of that country—in fact, intervening. Nothing of the sort was intended. Not that he admitted any absolute rule on the subject. Non-intervention, like peace, was the natural state ; but that did net say that there was never to be occasion for intervention, any more than that a legitimate cause for war might not arise. All that he did at present was to deny any idea of intervention, at the same time that he reserved the rights of his coun try. The second idea which he rejected was that Fr.lnce was opposed to a reform of the fuderel compact ; that idea was just as erroneous. France would con fine herself to maintaining all that constituted interna tional right. The French Government honoured and respected Switzerland, and considered her independence and her constitution intimately conneceel with the great interests of Europe. Nobody could deny that the neu trality of Switzerland was bound up with her constitu tion, and that, consequently, France had a great interest to maintain the contedelatien such as it was at present. And in what name where the changes spoken of de manded ? In that of the most radical ideas—of ideas, which wherever they prevailed, brought about the shame and ruin of the country where they were in force. These ideas, tar irom being new, as was represented, were old ones revived, and would destroy Switzerland, if she suf fered hers e l f to be guided by them. By what means, too, were they upheld ? By the most violent and irre gular. Was it possible for any one to say that France conl , l remain indifferent when such things were pas,ine ? ILL what h.,; the French Government done it threatened, had it employed force ? Not in the slightest degree. It had expressed its opinion, and re befrlA it§ Veit for the future. Tip grouch Gonia. THE SUI 4 , idOgDON. PIdDAY EVENING, ATTOr.iT§T 6, 1847. MONEY and COMMERCIAL NEWS. CITY, QUARTER TO THREE. The Cotton market at Liverpool yesterday was dull and heavy, at previous rates. Sales, 3,000 bales, in cluding 2,500 American, at 61d. to Id. ; and 300 Surat, at 4id. to 50. per lb.—There was but little business done in Railway Shares, which were all at lower prices. The corn market is heavy this morning, but is not considered lower than on Monday. The truth of the matter is, however, that parties will not buy, and the dealers therefore nominally keep up the quotations. There is a heavy failure already reported, and this is considered to be but the prelude of others. The following ieforniation is afforded in a letter from Messrs. Phillpotts and Co., of Gloucester, upon the sub ject of the corn-trade and the harvest " The dry weather, which set in at the end of June' continued without intermission during the greater part of the past month, during which period blight and in sects prevailed to an unusual extent; so that s ome heavy showers about the 20th July. though lodging the crepe in partial instances, were, on the whole, of great service. •• Wheat has ripen , d more rapidly than fir many years; but complaints of blight, yeilow maggot, and de fective heads, are so general, that the re suit of this crop cannot be sat( ly judged of until thrashing has com menced. At present we see no good reason to expect more than an average crop. Relipimt begins generally this week, end we may expect that farmers wi:ltise every effort to bring the new crop early to market. Until the 10th ult. our prices continued to decline. The small supply of English Wheat, and high prices demanded by holders, then caused the consumption of Foreign to in crease, And large quantities of the best samples changed hands for immediate use. The increase of foreign ar rivals, with the prospect of the harvest being soon commenced, has now led to a decided reaction, and much larger deliveries have been brought forward by our own growers during the past fortnight. As holders , have shown more disposition to realise, purchasers ha v e ' lacted with caution, and the stocks of millers and dealt ra are reduced to an extremely low point. Reports of foreign harvests are generally favourable, and the de cline of prices in America fully corresponds with that experienced in this country. Should our own crops be well secured, we cannot expect higher prices; but un favourable weather before our harvest is completed, might cause great excitement, and a speedy diminution of the stocks in merchants' bands." The Bank of England adopted late yesterday after noon a still more stringent course in respect to discounts. The minimum charge being now 5i per cent. upon all bills, without reference to date. It is supposed that the French Loan was to have been brought out in a few days, and that these measures are to warn our capitalists against participation therein. The Stock Market is in an agitated state yet, and there are but few Bulls. Consols have been as low as 86i for money, but since 86i, and 86i for time, though new 87 to *. A large purchase, about 150,0001 has been made by Lawrence,' Cazenove, and Company, but we may expect occasional dealirgs of this kind to close accounts.

CORN EXCHANGE..7FRIDAY.. The announcement of the failure of one of the leading houses here in the corn trade, and large importers of foreign grain (involved in liabilities between 200,0001. and 300,0001.) had a most prejudicial effect utton the de mand to-day for all descriptions of grain. During the present week the arrivals of English Wheat bare been on a very moderate scale, and the show of samples this morning was limited. Still, however, the demand for that article was extremely inactive, at barely, but at rothing quotable beneath, Monday's prices. At the close of the market a clearat ce had not been effected. Nearly 19,000 quarters of foreign Wheat have come to hand this week. A very large quantit3 waa again oe offer, while the trade was depressed, and the inferior samples might have been purchased on easier terms. Toe supply of Barley was small; nevertheless, thy. trade was heavy, at barely stationary prices. With Malt we were scantily supplied. All kinds were very dull, but rot lower.

Prime Down sheep were in good rrquest, at very full prices. Other wise, the Mutton trade was dull. The Lamb trade was tolerably firm, but we can notice no improvement in value. Nearly seven hundred Calves were brought for ward, yet the Veal trade was steady, at late rates. In Pigs, ex-leedingly little was doing, at Monday's curren cies.

This bsrikriipt, who had carrhd on business as a grocer in. H;gh-street, Southwark, came up to pass his last exeminstion, which bad been adjourned till this day. The SOLICITOR to the assignees said that they did not oppose the bankrui.t passing, as the accounts were no doubt the best that the bankrupt could furnish, but they had to complain of the conduct of one of the sheriff s officers for the county of Surrey, for . whose attendance his Honour had granted a summons a few days since, in order that he might t.e examined touching some pro perty which he had taken in execution, but he was not in attendance. As the Croydon Assizes, however, were on, it wa , just possible he might have some excua•", although thtre was little doubt he had been used as en instrument to defeat the general body of creditors, as tieht judgments had been put in, and kept for six week!. - His HONOUR asked if the officer had been served per sonally, and on being answered in the affirmative, said the solicitor might have a warrant. As to the bank rupt's conduct, it had been very uujust to his creditors in gennal, to whom he owed 2,5001., and all his pro perty had been seiz , d by the parties who held the executions; and who would get 20s. in the pound, whilst the other creditors said they would 'not get a farthing. This conduct would be taken into consideration when the bankrupt came up fur his certificate, which would, most certainly, be suspended, in order that his creditors might have an opportunity of putting him in prison. A creditor >aid, that if the Court withurew its pro tection from the bankrupt, he certainly would cause the tankrupt to be taken in execution. His 110NOUR said it was doing a good service. MARLBRO'-STREET 7 .(THIS DAY.) William Harrison was charged betore Mr. liaviwick with uttering acounterfeit half-crown. It appeared that on the previous evening, about half past eight, the prisoner entered the shop of Mr. Rodrique, the stationer in Piccadilly, and desired to be supplied with two sheets of paper, and a couple of envelopes, in payment for which he tendered the half crown produced. Directly the shopman took up the coln he detected it as being bad, and recognised the pri• toner as being the person who had passed a similar coin on the previous day. The prisoner was then given into custody. Mr HARDWICK remanded the prisoner for a week.
