The retirement of the wary and cautious King of Sweden, says the Berlin correspondent of the Times, from the conduct of affa'rs is of unu sual importance at this moment with refe rence to the constantly increasing magnitude of the Scandinavian movements, of which the Crown Prince is known to be an ardent supporter, as is also the case with his younger brother ; for the ap proaching crisis of the conflict between the Radical Government of Denmark and the German duclry of Holstein, now engaged in a last . struggle tor save itself from incorporation with the Semi dinavian kingdom, backed as it is by its Fede ral allies in. Germany, will hardly fail to press upon Europe the conviction of the necessity_ of creating a strong Scandinavian kingdom out of Sweden, Norway, and Denmark, and of separating from the latter that German Duchy of Holstein which it is endeavouring per fas et nefas to incor porate at the expense of every dictate of jus tice and public law. The existence of Hol stein as an integral portion of the • territory attached to the Danish Crown constitutes Den mark's greatest weakness; for its German popu lation, which owns no other fealty than to the per son of the King as their Duke, has boon thoroughly estranged by the events of the last 10 or 11 years, and the unremittingattemptsof the Danish Govern ment to bring it by all or any means into the same position as Schleswig. The policy, however, which with such powerful States as Russia - and Austria has succeeded with Poland and Hungary has not, as yet, availed much with the comparatively powerless Denmark, and will hardly do so as long as an appeal lies from Copenhagen to the German Confederation and to Europe at large. The constant disunion of the constitueutparts of the Danish monarchy makes Denmark always dependent on foreign aid and sup port ; and this she finds in Russia, whose eventual claims to thecrowu of Denmark are derived from a small port:on of Holstein territory, and who is, consequently, warmly interested in the retention of Holstein in Danish possession, and Denmark in Russian dependence. The evil .consequences we felt in the late war. Denmark persisted in noUtra lity, though Sweden was willing, if Denmark would have joined, to take part with us; and, had Den mark done so, Prussia must have one so, much as it was opposed to her best interests. When the moment comes, which will come soon, for revising the London Protocol of 1852, it is to be hoped ;hat our Cabinet will no longer be found playing uto Russia's hands as it did then, and had done !or years before. 7IIE RECENT ROBBERY OF FIVE HUNDRED POUNDS 1N LIVERPOOL. At the Liverpool Police-court, on Saturday, be fore Mr. J. S. Mansfield, the stipendiarymaogisn trate, Thomas Timm, Louisa, his wife, and John Rice wore brought up in custody of Inspector Mur phy and several other detective officers on a charg e of having been connected with the recent robbery of 5171. from the establishment of Mr. Kearns, wine and spirit merchant, Park-lane. Mr. Murphy said that on the 30th of Aughst last he received information of an extensive robbery from the pre mises of Mr. Kearns: He went to examine the place, and found that an iron safe in the inner office, which had contained 517/., bad been opened and the money abstracted. The door of the safe had been bored through with a drill, but the hole had been too high up, and did not take effect upon the lock. The burglars, after the fa , lure of this attempt, had proceeded to search in other parts of the premises.

The steam-ship Golden Age, from San Francisco August 5, arrived at Panama August 19, with about 500 passengers. There is but little news by this arrival. Several conflagrations ,had occurred during the fortnight in the towns in the interior of the State. On the 25th of July the town of S. Louis (Sierra county) was almost entirely destroyed by fire. On the 22d of July a fire broke out at Michigan 814 (Placer county), destroying 67 buildings. The adoption of the State Debt (declared illegal) by popular vote at the coming election seemed to meet with little Opposition. Polities had been the all-absorbing topics in this State. The American party had a set of candidates in the field for all the Stae offices. It was as fol lows :—For Governor, G. -W. Bowie, of Sa.cra mento ; Lieutenant-Governor J. A.

Our files from Jamaica extend to the 27th ult., tbo day on which the steamer left. The Legisla ture was not in session, and would not be before the usual time in October. The Executive Com mittee had been very assiduous in their -delibera tiohs as to what measures it may be expedient to introduce when the Legislature meets. Fever was very prevalent, but mortality slight. The island was very quiet, and trade generally dull, but mining operations- wore very encouraging. Fr mi Da Cordova's Mercantile Intelligences of the latest date we learn. that sugar was scarce, and sal es of fine quality haajA,o,4 made At 325. per -100 lb. Sales had been reported of a few barrels of alewives from the: nortliside at 20s. Gd. per barrel.

From Demerara, we learn that the Court of Policy had met twice since the last mail, and had taken under consideration the proclamation for the for mation of divisions and. the distribution of arms under the Estates' Arms Ordinance, which had recently come into operation. Tile proposed mea sure was looked upon favourably, if carried out with firmness. Mr. A. W. Perot had been unani moldy re-elected Mayor of Georgetown. Several of the persons, men and women, implicated in the outrage upon the Governo: and Mrs. Wodehouse on their late departure from the colony had been arrested, and liberated on bail, t) take their trials at the next session of the Supreme Court for riot. The - Hon. W. 13. Wolz.eley, Acting Government Secretary, and hi; lady left for England by the present packet, of er a residence of over 21 years, during which the hon. gentleman gained the respect' and goodwill of all classes. Mr. A. F. Gore, the- Ac lug Assistant Government Secretary, also left by this packet on leave of absence. The weather during the fortnight had been wet, and thunder storms frequent. The planters • wore anxiously looking for dry weather.. Business was dull, freight scarce, and tonnage abundant. On the' subject of the gold discoveries; the Royal GazAte of the 25th ult. says : " The gold mines at Upata are still the engross ing theme in the colony. Many parties are anxious to try their fortune at the diggings ; but in the meantime they are prudently waiting until a direct route is opened' up hence to the mines. A com mis=ion; consisting of Sir W. H. Holmes, the Hon. Dr. Blair, Mr. W. H. Campbell, Mr. IVi‘ClintOck, and other gentlemen, will start for the diggings to-morrow. They will proceed hence to the Warina, and, after ascending that river as far as it is navig able, will strike across the country to the Cuyuni, and proceed thence to the gold mines on the Yurnari. They will endeavour to find out traces of gold in the country as they pass along, and will astertain the exact locality of the present diggings, and whether they are on the British or on the Venezuelan territory. It is supposed that their journey' will occupy them about two months. Thera is every reason to 'believe that the country through which they propose to travel will be found to be rich in auriferous wealth. Their course will lie through the very tract of country in which the old Dutch geographers placed the Lake Parima, supposed to be the site of Sir Walter Raleigh's famous - El Dorado. A great deal of interest at tacheS to this expedition, and it is possible that it may-throw much light upon some dark passages in the his'ory of that gifted but unfortunate man." At Trinidad every hope existed of the projected railway being constructed. The estimates and plans were being matured. There had been heavy and frequent rains during the fortnight, and the wea ther was ou the whole favourable for cane cultiva tion.in produce. Very little au sugar c N ot o tl t d hing ba to at:d e r r this t fall, and only a small quantity of cocoa was coming forward. Breadstuffa and provisions had met a ready sale at remunerat ing prices. Demand for fresh flour was still good, and the old stock nearly all uS.:,(I up. Codfish con tinued in demand, at higher rates. T-he Grenada Legislature had continued in ses sion during the fortnight, but nothing of import ance was transacted. The we Alter was favourable for the planters, and trade maintained average ac tivity. The health of the iehnd was good. The news from the other islands is unimportant. SHIPPING INTELLIGENCE. Her Maje3ty's ship Brunswick, Captain Broad head, arrived at Barbadoes on the 17th of August, and sailed on the 20th for Colon; all well.

THE RECENT GREAT BANK FAILURES. 00NDON AND EASTERN BANKING • con- PORATION, 'ROYAL BRITIST AND Trl)- PERARY BANKS.. On.Satiarday a meeting was advertised to take place at the chambers of Vice-Chancellor Sir Wil liam Page Wood, for the purpose of hearing all pariies on the petition presented for the dissolution and wi—ding-up of the I.6ndon and Eastern Bank ing Corporation ; but it appears that, to suit the convenience of all parties. the heating of the peti flint, has been adjourned to Monday, 21st inst., when it will come before Vice-Chancellor Wood specially at Ipswich. It may be mentioned that this is the first case of the kind where a company formed for commercial purposes in British India has been brought under the operation of the English winding-up raw, and a question is likely to be raised as tl whether a company constituted for trid.ing .purposes in India is amenable to the Joint Stock Gempanies Wind ing-up Act, although th , a act contai 1,1 3 a . proviSo that every trading corporation, whose place of busi ness is in .the British dominions, comes within its scope ; albeit its business is conducted in any 'of our territories abroad. The places of buiness of the London and Eastern Banking Corporation were as follows : Council-street, Calcutta ; Forbes street, Bombay ; Cannon-street; London ; WeA, bourne-terrace ; 20, Pall-mall, and 44; Mark4ane. The corporation, as it appears from the official list of shatehOldersAeonsis . ed of 93 proprietors. Of this number no fewer than 27 were majors and lieutenant-colonels in the East India Onnpauy's service, resident at home and abroad ; 20 native merchants, two local judges, and the remainder (between 30 and 40) resident in England and India. It will be necessary, as there are so many share holders resident in India, to appoint a winding-41p agency in that country, in connection with the one in this, Whi.3ll will tend to increase the expense and inconvenience in connection with the winding-Up. Should the Vice-Chanc:llor issue an order de lar _ • ing thA the corporation ig to be wound up in Chan-. cery, that operation will in all probability ba con ducted by Mr. R. P. Harding, who has had the carriage, under similar circuuistances, of the affiir3 of the Royal British Bank. .It has been suggested that the affairs of the London and Eastern Banking Corporation should be thrown into bankrupt . cy, and if this were to be done, there would be a repeti tion of precisely the same Unseemly collision be tween the jurisdiction of the Courts of Chancery and Bankruptcy that occurred in the case of the Royal British Bank, thereby doubling the costs of winding-up, to be paid by the unfortunate share holders, to the advantage wholly and solely of the lawyers concerned. '. The following circular has been issued to the shareholders during the past week by certain soli citors : _ _ vyVv ~" 25, Throgtnorton•street, London, Sept,. 4, 1857. " Sir,—You will doubtless have been informed by the publ c papers that a petition fhas been presented to the of_ Chancery for the Winding-up of the affairs of London and Eastern Banking Corporation. " We "are informed that this step lia4 been taken from a strong conviction that is the only couroe by which the shareholders can have justice dos 3 to then, and by which they can secure an equal contribution towards the liabilities, and a strict and impartial investigation into the transactions of the directors which have brought the bank to its present position. " Wehave long since been instructed by the agents of several shareholders resident abroad, to adopt active measures to protect their interests ; and although we - did not think it expedient to allow our clients to be the petitioners to the Court of Ch'incery, we are nevertliklass fully satisfied that a step in the right direction has been taken. _ _ _ " Experience has taught us that it would .be impossible to obtain an. equal voluntary contri billion from a large body of shareholders ; that the only result of such - an attempt would be to ,throw the whole of the liabilities upon the shareholders; and that without the coercion of the Court of Chancery, a large number would altogether escape from contributing. Tue effect of such an attempt would be to extract forthwith from the pockets of the willing shareholders heavy calls on their shares, leaving _ . them at the same time still exposed t) legal proceedings on the part of the creditors, and with the certain pros pect that after all they would be driven into the Court of ' Chancery, to obtain an equal and. juet c3ntry bution. from those who woahl' otherwise avoid making any payment. Without the aid of the strong arm of the law, it wouli by impossible t obtain a strict and searching inveatigation into the trans actions of those by whom the affairs of the bank have been conducted, and if it should lie dkcovered, as there • is gi . eat reason to suspect, that the funds of the bank have been irregularly dealt with, it is only by aid of the Court of Chancery that the shareholders can caeup4l the persons responsible for such transaction', to refund any monies improperly applied, and prevent the w:mle of the heavy liabilities of the bank from falling on the innocent share hel ler& "Upon an order being made for the dissolue ion and winding up of the bank, we think that the shareholders will be best protected by appointing independent gentle men as official managers?' On Saturday it was understood that another direc tor, a large shareholder, is absent. It is stated on the one hand that the bank is only carrying on bu siness nominally in Threadneedle-strew, where the London offices have been removed, and on the other that it is transacting no business whatever beyond that of preparing itself to be wound up. It is stated that the bank has hitherto been receiving pecuniary assistance from the Oriental Bank on certain term', but that, in consequence of the improbability of the calls being responded to, and the non-realis ►tion of the securities, the Oriental Bank now besitaee to render further assistance.. _lt is rumoured that it was at one time in contemplation by the Oriental Bank to purchase the . business of the London and Eastern, and the circumstance of their rendering this assistance somewhat favours the assumption as to this being the ulterior object intended. Some of the shareholders, it is said, have given promissory notes in payment of calls, but it is questionable whether, when the t'me comes, if these notes will be honoured. The liabilities, as far as can yet be ascertained, amount to about a quarter of a million, exclusive of securities. THE ROYAL BRITISH BANK. As regards the present position of matters in the Royal British Bank, it. is understood that all re quisite exertions are being used in carrying out amicable conferences with the unfortunate share holden in preference to resorting to vexatious and ruinous litigation. A vast amount of interJommuni cation and correspondence is going on between them and the official manager of the Court of Chancery, Mr. P. Harding, relative to the amount they can contribute towards defraying the liabilities of the bank, and in many cases the assistance of friends has been sought to enable them to make some kind of contribution. These compromises are being carried out under the immediate direction of Vice- Chancellor Sir T. Kindersley. The liability of those shareholders who took shares after the sup plemental charter was obtained, -being supposed to be governed by the decision of the court in Brock well's case, which inleffect relieves nearly one-half of the responsible shareholders, and appears' to give them the right to claim. their money back again, will, it is understood, be taken on appeal to the House of Lords by the other' half of the share holders. "It is manifestly of importance that the law of such a state of things should be formally settled, since, under the present decision, it is in the power of shareholders who may have received dividends on their shares to say they were induced by fraud to_take those shares, and if so, many shareholders in other abortive companies will be able, while receiving dividends, to repudiate their liabilities to contribute to the Josses. Al though under the act pr aced last session, which gave shareholders abroad the liberty to return and enter into compromise, it is stated that a large !lumber TH7. PENINSUL AR, MAIL.

Affun'eca to form a com pany for the construction of railroads upon the American plan. in-the African province of Angola, the Portuguese Government making considerable grants of land and mining privileges to the com pany, which was said to be a Parisian project.

The leaders of the Conservative party, who have hitherto supported the Government, and the Liberals have united and formed a strong party against the Government. They demand a change in the Cabittet'and a more liberal lineof policy. Late advices announces that the Ministers had presented their resignat'ort, and ithad been accepted by the President. Nothing is said as to their successors, and some persons are of opinion that the new Cabinet wilt not be appointed until Sept. Dates ft om Callao are to August 12, which give intelligence of the assassination of. Mr. S. E. Suli vah, Btitish Minister at Lima. The following par ticulars are from the Callao correspondent of the Panama Star and Herald : "News has just been sent from Lima that Mr. Sulivan, the Minister, was assassinated by six Peruvians. The Vixen has gone to Palta in search of Admiral Bruc?. It is supposed that he was murdered for the British interference in the matter of the Tumbes and Loa. I have just re ceived the particulars of 'the affair :—Mr.. Sulivan was dining alone, when six men, masked, entered and fired three shots, one of which is fatal, having entered the groin and passed up into the lungs. After the deed was done one of them exclaimed, I am now satisfied,' and then they all disappeared. As yet no one is suspected for it. There is a de sire on the part of the Peruvians to put off the whole matter as the result of an intrigue w;th lady. Bo that as it. may, the Government feel alarmed as to what the result will be. The steamers Ucalya and Tumbes are going south to bring back General Castilla, and probably some troops." "Callao, August 12, 3 p.m.—A Frenchman and a negro have been just arrested on suspicion of be ing accomplices of the assassination of Mr. Suli van. There are not the slightest hopes of his re covering. It is now reported that the act was committed by some of the most respectable persons in Lima. However, I will give you the rumour. It appears a short time ago a ball was given by one of the leading families in Lima, and that Mr. Suli van took there a well known prostitute that he has kept etn a long ot the remonstrated time fac t til a a s t mistress w it ith ha him, s agross re oa ; sus t h ni e gen tlemen present insult his ttoalatten tionl , p ie e r s sons present ; to which he is said to have re good as any woman present plied that she was as or iu Lima, and that they were all a set of prosti tuti'. Are vard of 100 ounces is offered for the a pprehension of the murderers. The steamer will be searched' by the Retribution as wens as she nets out of the harbour." The conduct of the Peruvian - officials towards American vessels had called for tLe interference of the - United States Minister. Private letters state that the presence of an American vessel of war was much needed on the coast. The Government of Ecuador had notified its ad- beSion to the convention entered into between Peru and Chili in September, 1856. General Castillo, on his return to Callan, had been placed under arrest by the Council of Mini sters, who exercised the supreme power diving the absence of the President. Castillo had published a letter complaining of this outrage. The matter was referred to the convention, which disclaimed the action of the Council. .

CRIME IN THE METROPOLITAN DISTRICT'S, It appears l3y the returns_ of the gaol of Newaate preparatory to the commencement of the September sessions of the Central Criminal Court this morning, that there are 75 prisoners fot. trial on the first edi tion of the calendar, the number, of the correspond ing session of last year beirigloo. This diminut 7 on is no doubt to be attributed to the more eitended operation of the Sunnuary . Jurisdiation Act, and it is to be feared that it . does not in reality indicate any actual decrease in crime. Although the nuirilkr of prisoners for trial is rather smaller than usual, - -th .e cases to be - disppsed of at this session are of a very serious character, there being three charges of wyul"murder, several of cutting and wounding withintent to murder, burglary, and the other higher classes of offences.. Tees of the charges of murder are of a very serious character. A young man named Cornelius Denny is charged with mur dering a young Italian in the Hampstead-road by stabbing him in the belly with a knife. A second case of murder is that of a man named Parsons, who while .confined' in the infirmary of Horee monger-lane Gaol, in a sudden paroxysm of rage . dostroyed.a follow-prisoner in that establishment, and the defence to be set up for the prisoner will be that at the time he committed the act he was not in a state of mind to be criminally responsible. The remaining case of murder is the paint - ill one of the Italian courier, Antonio de Salvi; who stands charged upon the coroner's inquisition with the wilful murder of a parson named Robertson, in the Queen's Benali Prison. This prisoner, it will be recollected, was originally committed upon a charge of wounding:the deceased with intent to -murder him, and although it was known from the moment the injury was inflicted that it Yeas one of such a character that death was sure to ensue, and that the case would resolve itself eventually into a charge of wilful murder, Mr. Baron Martin, who presided at the August session 'of the Central Criminal Court, insisted upon trying the prisoner upon the indict ment then before the court, and he was convictedof wounding with intent to do grievous bodily harm, and sentenced to 15 years' penal. servitude. The prisoner, since'he has received the notification that he will have to undergo the second ordeal of a trial upon a charge of . wilful murder, has complained b'tterly that he should have been tried upon the other charge, as he and liTs friends fully expected that the first trial would have settled the matter ; but it is of course impossible for the court to decline to take cognisance of a charge of wilful murder, and particularly when committed under such very seri ous circumstances ; and Mr. Pollard, the assistant solicitor to the Treasury, has, it is understood, re ceived instructions to prefer a bill of indictment against the- prisoner for that offence, De Salvi, who is a Roman catholic, has been constantly visited bya Catholic priest during the last few days, and on Saturd'y the-Rev. Mr. Goddard, his last master, who appears to take very great interest in him, and who, it is said, has provided the means for retain ing the able assistance of Mr. E. Jame;, Q.C., to defend 11;m, also visited the unhappy prisoner. In addition to what may be termed the ordinary cases of the session, in which the parties accused are in custody, there are - several charges of public inte rest, that will have to_be disposed of at this session, in which the parties are out on bail, and the most serious of these is the charge of manslaughter against some persons employed on the South Eastern Railway, arising out of the fatal accident that took place at the Lewisham station in June I last, when, it will be remembered, eleven unhappy persons lost their lives. There is also a charge of perjury aeainet two-.persons named Hastings and Murphy arising out of a trial for the infringement of a patent for making candles, in which it is said there are- 90 witnesses to be examined for the pro secution, and Sir F. Thesiger is specially retained as counsel, and which is expected to occupy three or four days, unless it should be prematurely disposed of by some technical objection. There is also a case , to be disposed of which attracts a great deal of interest in City circles, and indeed among the community generally as involving the sanctity of messages sent by the telegraph. The case referred to is a charge of .libel preferred by Mr. Cadogan, the chairman of the Electric Telegraph Company, the • libel complained of being an allegation that the messages of a politi cal character and calculated to influence the funds were not despatched in due course, but were held back in order that parties might make use of them for stock-jobbing purposes. "Under this form of charge the defendants have the privilege of plead ing a justification, and prothicing evidence to show that the statements made by them were true, and `.thiS if est i eblished would exonerate them from . the charge ; and it is understood that this course is intended to be taken, and some singular disclosures are .aiitic . ptited. Sir Alexander Cockburn, the Chief Justice of the Common Pleas, Mr. Justice Willes, and Mr. Baron Watson are the judges who will'preside. The aldermen who will sit as second commissioners are Farebrother, Huniphery, Earn comb, Sir F. G. Moon, Cubits, and Phillips. THE IVETHEBTON COLIERY EXPLOSION. The inquests on the bOTlies of the men who were killed by the explosion at the Gawu Colliery, on Thurid-iy, were opened at Dudley, on Saturday. The bodies of the seven deceased having been re moved to their late residences, which happened to be situate in three separate coroners' districts (the counties of Worcester and Stafford being at this p )int tr►uch intermixed), separate inquests were opened on e tab: The evidence at all the inquests was chiefly of a formal character, and they were adjourned for a more complete investigation. •At the - inquest on the body of George French, the :" doggie," or underground superintendent of the works, whose duty it was to examine the pit before the men went to work, one witness deposed that lamps were kept in the pit. It was the dog gie's duty to try the lamps every morning before commencing work. By a ,Turor—Never saw any lamps in the "whimsey," (a hut on the bulk of the pit.) Saw lamps taken down into the pit after the explosion. The juror remarked that the deceased French had told him on the very morning of the accident that he was going to work, and that there was not a lamp in the whimsey fit to go down into the pit with. Prior to the adjourned inquests, the Govern ment inspector will make a complete examination of the pit. In consequence of the accident which occurred at the Camp of Chalons, where two artillerymen were wounded in consequence of the negligence in closing the touch hole of a gun, the Emperor, who was much shocked by their misfortune, has appointed a commission to devise a plan for preventing such accidents in future. A. paper mentions that M. Gustave Oppelt, a Belgian officer, has invented what he calls an obturator, which he undertakes will .perfectly close the touch-hole of a gun while it is being charged. ai [ADVERTISENIENT.]—We quote a few more of the extriaor nary cures without medicine effected by Du o f t he de e ic s i t o io u n s health-restoring Revalenta Arabica Food o s f dig Asthma, Consumption, an Debility: Cure Complaints, Cough, (Dyspepsia), Flatulency, Constipation, Nervou , B d ilious b , T and Cure No. 180.—" Twe nt y -five years' tion, indigestion, an d debility, from u w er h v i o c us h nlelessa,deosiuisifteirld greal misery, and which no medicine could remove or relieve, effectually . it e c o u v r e e s d , I b B y l , D F u l e e S t a - s r r t r y e ' e s t Foodon London;' c v u er r y e No. 4,208.---- spasms, havesham time r " b een Eight years' dyspepsia, nervousness, debility, and nausea, for which my servant had consulted the advice of many, have been effectuallycur i e n db oii by excessive D u Barry's healt h -restoring Food.-1 shall be happy to v answer A n y iuquiries.—ltev.
