THE TEA ESTABLISHMENT, No. 8, LUDGATE-HILL. London, October 12, 1847. We never remember the Finest Teas so cheap as at the present Moment. We have this day made extensive purchases of the finest importa tions of Black and Green Teas, from Fourpence to Sixpence below What the same parcels sold at only four months ago. This ruinous loss is attended with most calamitous results to the merchant ; but the public to this extent are gainers—that they may now purchase a single pound of Tea at our estaflishment in London cheaper than the importer can buy his thousand chests at in Canton . The system of our business has been uniform. We have ever been ItetUated by the principles of fair dealing, in meeting the altered cir cumstances of the Markets as they arise. This course has been ap preciated by a discerning public, and we gratefully acknowledge a large share of confidence and patronage. We especially invite attention to the remarkably flee Black Tea, Which we are charging only Four Shillings per Pound. Very choice Gunpowder at Five Shillings and Fourpence, and Refined Sugar at Fivepence Halfpenny. The importation of Coffee Is very large, the qualities very good. and the prices extremely low._ _ SIDNEY and COMPANY, Tea Merchants and Dealers. No. 8, Ludgate-hill.

When first the good reader my title discerns, No doubt he'll expect a quotation from Burns : But he'll very soon find that the subject is one Of the weekly productions of MOSES and SOY. And now for the fable which specially bears, On matters connected with sporting affairs. T wo Pointers one day (so the narrative goes), Having met in a field, had a chat, nose to nose. ", Good. morning (said Pincher), pray how is the game, And rid how is your roaster—l don't know his name ; h' l ",et him just now, and I saw from his coat, e "ad Patronised MOSES, those tailors of note." Exactly (said Tray), that's a capital guess, 'You know ' what is what,' in a matter of dress. The merits of MOSES seem pretty well known, Where a barrel has • bang'd,' or a feather has flown. - Nor need we to wonder, for really (said Tray), Their shooting-coats rank as the first in their dt'y. The coats made by MOSES are fitting and firm, And are cheap in the very best sense of the term." While Tray thus described the prime garments on sale, Pincher showed his assent by a wag of the tail. And I, as a gentleman using a gun, Took notes of the chat, and resolved to be one Of the firmest adherents of MOSES and SON. LIST OF PRICES.

THE SPORTSMAN'S THREE WISHES The sportsman has wishes—we name them—they're three, With the truth of this version you all will agree : Now September's set in, most nobly we'll strive, To keep the old custom of shooting alive.

HYAM now stands, For his " P Shooting.coat," known in all lands Enveloped in these, it soon will be found, That the wind and the rain fall powerless around. For warmth, style, and freedom, none such can be got, Just wear one—you soon wil be reckoned a " shot." Then sportsmen of England, appreciate well, One who pleases so much, and who strives to excel For that is the cause why the journals express Such very great faith in his prime shooting dress.

[PRICE SD. - 7y,_ __i _ , to piton before the lih.beat cau ago % bolt After several unsuccessful attempts t go directly of to the buoys, which had been thrown overboard, the boatmen rowed for some distance to the southward and sailed down upon them. The spectators seemed to be relieved to some extent when they saw that the line attached to one of the buoys had been got at, and that the boatmen were drawing themselves by means of it towards the vessel. At length they reached her side, and when all were safely in the boat the cheer again rose, and was responded to on the shore, A few moments brought all safely to land. We hardly know in what manner to express our admiration of the manner in which the life-boat was managed yesterday forenoon ; and we trust tha some substantial mark of gratitude will show that the public are not insensible to the claims of men who volunteer to sutler and to hazard their own lives that they may rescue their fellow-men from the brink of destruction. As regards the vessels and their ma nagement, it is a different question. Where the poor men have suffered so much we would not wil lingly say anything to their discredit; but we cannot help thinking that, instead of being wrecks on our beach, they might have been, with very little ad ditional exertion, lying in safety in our wet dock.— Montrose Standard of Tuesday. " The directors have not thought it advisable to recommend, in this report, any plan for adoption ; yet they are prepared to receive suggestions as to the future course to be pursued. " To arrive at a sound opinion upon this question, it will be proper to take into view that, during the liquidation of the debts, the affairs of the bank• have been so conducted as to leave unimpaired the legal existence of the company ; and as the bank was es tablished under the original law; the late enactment restricting the privileges of joint-stock banks does not apply to this company, and therefore the advan tages attached to it should be considered as an avail able property, which, if judiciously used, might give an increased value to the shares therein. But this value (whatever it may be) appertaining to its legal position, can only be realised by adopting some plan for reviving the business of the bank, either for ac count of the present proprietors, or by some other party, who may become their successors. " The directors who retire from office, by rotation, are Messrs. George Boyle Chappell, Joseph C. Dyer, and John Gouldsborough. They will be proposed for re-election.

TIMES.—The Stock-Exchange panic has con tinued to-day with increased force. Consols for money opened at 81/, and, under the pressure of constant sales, rapidly d ec li ne d to 80/— a quotation nearly two per cent. under the last official price of yesterday. From this point, owing to the Bank Court having broken up without the public announce ment of any change in the minimum rate of discount, an advance took place to 811, but the reaction was not maintained, and they left off at 801 to 811. For the account on the 26th of November, the market opened in a most unsettled state, and the first quotation was 82/ to /. Subsequently they went to 81/, then back again to 821 buyers, and they finally closed at 818 to 821. The whole of these movements occurred in connexion with the settlement which took place to•day, and as the range of fluctuation during the account has amounted to between 7 and 8 per cent., the differ ences to he arranged to-morrow will prove of extra ordinary magnitude. In the course of the day the quotations of Reduced Three per Cents. presented a most noticeable feature, that stock having declined from its opening pri ce o f 80 1 to 7 9 1 ; a ft er which a purchase of 15,0001. was made by the Government broker on account of the East India Guarantee Fund, and it closed 79.1 to 80. Bank Stockleft off 178 to 181 ; India Stock, 220 to 224; Three-and-a• Quarter per Cents., 81 to 4; Long Annuities, 8 to 4; and India Bonds, 355. to 255. dis. Exchequer Bills were quoted in the morning. 335. to 20s. dis., and they closed at 30s. to 255. In the midst of all this excitement in the stock market there has been no fresh mischief out of doors. The causes of the existing state of things would, therefore, seem to have had their origin, to a very great degree, in the circumstances connected with the Sir George Larpent, Bart., Chairman of the London Committee of 1846 for Extension of Steam Navigation to Australia.

This breach of the law is acquiesced in by a large portion of the public, from a conviction of the utter im possibility in innumerable cases of cleansing a chimney or flue with the old machine. For the laudable purpose of furthering the objects of the law by avoiding all necessity for its infringement, the inge nious and effective Ramoncur machine has been invented. This invention consists of four brushes forming a square head, which by means of elastic springs contracts or expands, according to the small or extended space in which the machine moves, thereby creating an even pressure on all four sides of a chimney. The rods attached to this head or brush are supplied at intervals wit!" universal spring joints, capable of turning even a right angle and the whole is surmounted with a double revolving ball, having also a universal spring joint, which leads the brush with certainty past every angle, and into every corner, cleansing its route most perfectly. The capabilities of this machine are best demonstrated by the fact, that it is exclusively used ii the Government and numerous public offices, while the patronage bestowed by a large number of the nobility and gentry in eontinuing their anneal con tracts to the patentees evidences their sense of its superiority, as well as of the philanthropic views of the projectors.

Excesses are always injurious ; the gift, w hi c h w h en used In moderation is fraught with advantage, becomes, when abused, the prolific source of mischief, and of greater or less Injury to the constitutional and vital powers. The particular excesses, on the Nature and consequence of which this Treatise professes to dilate, are productive of greater severity of misery to the human frame, than any other to which it is subject. This work contains an accurate and complete account of the Anatomy and Physiology of the Reproductive Organs, and of their relative conditions in health and disease. It deservedly requ ires the closest attention and study , for what subject can be of mere importance than the preservation of the health, and of the physical capabilities of which every man should be possessed. It unfortunately happens that the unhappy victim of excessive indulgence and vicious habits, whether acquired in early life or from the follies of advanced age, while suffering from their invariable consequences, unwisely entertains a tear of ap plying to a qualified physician for relief. Shame and the dread so frequently, but erroneously entertained that these complaiats are beyond the reach of art, alike restrict him and prevent his seeking for assistance where alone it can be procured. In acting thus, he forgets that accurate discrimination in ascertaining the causes of disease, sympathy with the sufferer, and, above all, secrecy, Inva riably characterise the intelligent and practical physician, and to the medical man who can show by his posse sion of the requisite legal lin e ations that he is en titled to esteem and respect in his profes. s i o nal pursuits, the utmost qua con fidence should be extended. Dr. LAIIERT has obtained the highest medical honours, as his diplomas testify, and the great extent of his practice for many years is a guarantee for his professional experience, which has reference almost solely to the treatment of these diseases.

ALARMING FIRE IN STAMFORD-STREET.—Yester day, a few minutes before two in the afternoon, a fire of an alarming nature took place at Bickerton's hat fac tory, Stamford-street, Biackfriars-road. They have large premises at the rear of their warehouse, in which drying and finishing were carried on, but for some time one of the proofing rooms has been unoccupied. One of the men was preparing proofing matter over a large fire, and while he was at dinner by some accident it boiled over, and in a few minutes the whole building was on fire.

THE - MAILS. SOUTHAMPTON, OCT. 14. —The Oriental Company's steam-ship Montrose, Captain Bur ney, arrived here at 8.30 A.M. this day, and landed her mails from the Peninsula and Mediterranean, under charge of Lieutenant Percival, RN., which were for warded to London by the eleven o'clock train. She left Gibraltar on October the sth, Cadiz the 6th, Lisbon the 9th, off Oporto and Vigo the 10th. The Montrose had no communication with Oporto. She has thirteen pas sengers, and full cargo—partly consisting of 2,300 boxes of grapes, 11 cases of cigars, 11 packages of specie, besides sundries. The ships at tho ports were—Gibral tar, her Majesty's steamer Virago and American sloop of war ; Cadiz, the Oronoque French war steamer and one Spanish ; Lisbon, the British squadron, consisting of her Majesty's ships St. Vincent (flag), Caledonia, Queen, and steamers Sidon, Odin, Avenger, Dragon, Stromboli, and Jackal' ; the Canopus, Veageanee, and frigates Amphitrite and Trincomalee having sailed on a trial cruise. Oct. 9, at ten A.BI , passed her Majesty's steamer Terrible, entered the Tagus, supposed to be from Angola, with the banished party. At noon, the same day, passed her Majesty's steamer Antelope, off the rock of Lisbon. The Montrose experienced, through the Bay, south-west winds with rain and a heavy north west swell. Up Channel, wind from. the south east, with thick weather. The Montrose entered the river with the yellow flag hoisted, having sickness. on board. PORTSMOUTH, OCT. 14.—The Duke and Duchess of Palmella, suite, and attendants, embarked yesterday in the Fire Queen steamer, from the King's Sallyport, and were conveyed to Spithead, and put on board her Majesty's steamer Vixen. Commander Ryder soon after put to sea for Lisbon. The Vixen took letters and packages for the coast of Africa, to be put on board the Amphitrite at Lisbon. A contract, we understand, has just been made for the relaying and adapting for lomotive steam power the Ardrossan Railway, from Eglinton Iron Works to the Perceton Branch Railway, the latter of which, some time ago, was rendered fit for locomotives ; also for forming a railway from Corsehill t,o Kilwinning to in tersect the Kilmarnock branch of t he Ayrshire Railway, forming part of the Glasgow, Kilmarnock, and Ardios san Railway. Mr. H. King, Mothizzwed, Lanarkshire, is the contractor.—Ay r Observer Baron de Cetto, the Bavarian_ Minister, and Count Schimmelpenninck, the Netherlands Minister, trans acted business yesterday at the Foreign-office. -- - termination of the present account . . The way in which speculators extended their operations on the reduction of the Bank rate of interest in September has evidently necessitated at this moment a simul taneous rush upon the market for which the public were not prepared, and which has tennsequently ena bled the dealers to make their own To look to any other circumstances for a full ex planation would be useless, desirable to notice the fact, in order that the present panic panic may not be mistaken for one having entire or chief origin in commercial distrust. Although we are evidently only approaching the final state of pressure by which the mania that now ' jeopardizes the whole nation is to be subdued, it is quite clear that the movements of the past week have not occurred in consequence of any more deliberate view taken by the public to that effect, while at the same time it is to be observed that as far as the posi tion of commercial affairs is concerned,. nothing has happened to create any particular apprehensions be yond such as have now prevailed for a considerable period. One house of importance whose capital has long been eaten up or placed out of reach, has fallen, but that is all; and as regards the future , there is no of added reason for alarm that any those firms who may have prudently prepared by a con traction of their engagements for the whichstormd they must long have seen was inevitable will b bebroken down. That such contraction has been steadily going on for months may be shown by abundant evidence, vidence, and, a consequently, although commerce of kinds was in a sound and healthy state when the crisis was first prophesied, it is now, beyond question, in a still nar rower and closer compass. -Let the same policy be steadily pursued, and although each man, in business will be compelled to sustain loss of income, he will escape all danger of insolvency. That the want of currency aids to commerce has not been the cause of the past failures , or of the pre sent panic, may f or tunately be demonstrated. On the 29th of August, 1846, when the bullion in the Bank was at its highest point, and when it was universally proclaimed that th e then amount of circulation was sufficient to render the expenditure of some two or millions three hund re d . t sterling on railroads perfectly amount practicable, th e of notes in the hands of the public was 20,426,0001. 11 Since that time, as we have observed, the degree of contraction which all com mercial transactio ns h ave undergone has been almost unprecedented, while at the same time a heavy fall in prices has taken place, both these circumstances being such as to cause a vast reduction in the monetary wants of the public. Concurrently, therefore, with what happenedh thecirculation might have greatly whilediminished money might still have remained as easy as ever. We have seen, however, a gradual rise in the rate of interest from 2f up to 6 or 8 per cent. ; and, consequently, increased economy in the use of notes must have been largely practised ; so that a further reason has existed to enable the public to carry on their operations with a greatly decreased amount. Yet, in the face of all this, what has been the actual extent of the reduction ? Less than one million and three-quarters has been its entire sum. From a time when the currency of the country was in a state of plethora down to the present moment, when we are told that all our commercial energies are threatened with extinction solely from the want of due facilities, the times n than in former has absolutely been smaller often witnessed in the changes of a few months. Nay, is actually not so great 89 more, the difference as it was on the 19th of June last, when Consols were when commerce was much less contracted, were higher. At that time when i prices of all articles ti n m o e w 18,7 17,967,0001. sufficed for our wants, and we have It is plain, therefore, e 12,0004 that if the existing circula tion were really available for the uses of the mercan tile body, there would e be a surplus instead of a deficiency, and that higher than 2i per money wou ld again be not much When, under these cir cumstances, we hear cent. a cry for "relief," and an assertion that a reduction of o ne million and three quarters in the amount of ou r pro mises to pay is too of a great in the face reduction o f nearly eight mil lions (for th a t i s the extent t o which our gold has by which those promises are secured, l e t us not e be deceived as to the p arties for whom th e d emon that might be concededr is ra i se d, and by whom all would be forthwith clutched. Trade and manufactures must further decline, the pressure we have al ready endured must be out d on e which it will n o t be borne, but there is a limit beyond rne, and all that we can do i s to wait patiently unti l least movement i n an that limit is attained. The opposit e direction would con stitute the first step to ( v tebe f o ll o wed by many rapid national b a nkruptcy. POST.—Money wa s again to-day.

They very prudently, however, issued no public • notice to that effect, for although for several days past they have been doing no business at the nomina l rate , the idea would have made rather an injurious impression on the public mind. In point of fact, however, the directors are governed by no rule, but entirely by tiae circumstances in each particular case, in the rate of charges. To the advances or loan on commercial bills that fell due to-day in some cases an extension has been given for seven days for half the amount, the directors of the Bank selecting what they con sider the best of the bills to remain for their secu rity. The rate of interest charged in these cases e r cent. has been increased to 7 p , and consequently the notice of their minimum being 51 is practicalty fallacious. More stringent measures have been applied where loans were made on public securities, the return of the money being made im perative in some cases to the full amount, if not in PUBLICATIONS.

The number of persons in attendance at the Bank for dividends was again numerous, and the amounts paid out yesterday and to-day have been large, almost beyond any former example in the same space of time. This will sufficiently account for the rigour with which the repayment of the loans is insisted upon, but it will at the same time produce a greatly increased pressure on commercial credit. There has been more than the usual fertility of rumours respecting the difficulties in which several leading houses in the City are placed, and although the names have been bandied about with very little ceremony, we do not feel ourselves justified in giving them formal publicity, or even in making such pointed allusions as might become injurious to any arrangement in progress to sustain them from falling. According to the letters received yesterday from Liverpool, considerable apprehensions were enter tained that the accounts to-day would be disastrous in the extreme, but it appears that, to a considerable extent, the danger had been overcharged. One of the banks, it is stated, however, but one with only a small extent of business and amount of liabilities, is embarrassed, but whether it will be compelled to stop altogether is not known. CHRONICLE.—Money matters have been in an unsettled state in the City to-day, owing to the un certainty respecting the meeting of the Bank direc tors, and the fear which was experienced that an increase in the rate of discount would be its result. No change has, however, been announced, and a temporary improvement in the price of Consols took place, but which gradually disappeared at the close of the day. Whatever may be the gravity of our financial position at this time, and however true it may be that the pressure under which all classes are labouring arises from an excessive expenditure of national wealth, still there can be no question that the general want of confidence is a cause only second to it in the importance of its immediate effect upon the general welfare. The wealth created by credit has at this moment scarcely existence in the com mercial world. The transactions of trade are forced down to their narrowest limits, and in the operation those houses whose business has been conducted upon the faith in this wealth, rather than on the fact of its existence, have had to struggle with the utmost difficulty to maintain their position. At what amount of sacrifice these efforts have been made we can only imagine, unless suspension of payment gives publicity to their affairs. There is, however, much popular error respecting the influence exercised by the failures of mercantile houses upon trade. The supposition that a stoppage of a firm whose liabilities amount to any given sum involves dishonoured paper to that amount is a mis take, and one which it is very advisable to remove. Common report gives the sum total of recent failures as between ten and twelve millions, and it is a fre quent question, " What will become of all that dis honoured paper ?" We believe the fact to he that the acceptances of the firms who have recently failed scarcely reach 3,000,0001. sterling, and in many cases the items of that amount were drawn for by the bill holder here on the foreign countries from whence the drafts originally came. When, in 1837, the three large American houses suspended payment, their acceptances amounted to a larger sum by some hundreds of thousands sterling than the aggregate of those dishonoured by the whole amount of failures which have recently occurred; and yet the effects of the present crisis are generally believed to be unparalleled in their seve rity. With reference to this particular point, the state of our exchanges must sooner or later bring the bullion back to this country, and with its accumula tion will come a period of greater ease in all depart ments of trade. But the restoration of credit even in a trifling degree is a matter of almost as great consequence in this emergency; for its effect would be to let loose the money which the fears of the capitalist have rendered as useless to the country as if it were buried in the gold mines of Peru. This state of doubt and uncertainty will pass away. Severe as is the pressure, there is no cause for doubt ing either the elasticity or power of the national re- sources. That elasticity has proved superior to disasters greater than those occurring to-day, and with the foundations of future prosperity in a sound condition there is but little fear of the ultimate result. BANK OF MANCHESTER ANNUAL MEETING. MANCHESTER, WEDNESDAY.—This morning the annual meeting of this unfortunate concern was held in the large room of Heyward's Hotel, for the purpose of receiving the report of the board of directors, and of re-electing those directors who re tire by rotation. Mr. G-. R. Chappell, chairman of the board, presided. The meeting was not nume-, rously attended. The advertisement calling the meeting having been read, The CHAIRMAN called upon Mr. Farrar, one of the managing directors, to read the annual report. Mr. FARRAR then read the following report to the' meeting : " The accounts submitted to the last general meet ing brought down the affairs of the bank to the 30th' of June, 1846. " The estimated net assets at that date were 98,2681 10s. 2d.; the liabilities, 40,5781. ls. ld.; and the apparent surplus, 57,6901. 9s. id.

On Tuesday afternoon a man in the employ of Mr. Oliver met his death at Clay Cross by getting upon a loaded coal waggon, in which he rode through the tunnel, when he got off, and the Government train from Derby, passing on the down line, knocked him down, and cut him to pieces. The unfortunate man was alone to blame, and has paid the penalty of his rashness. On Tuesday night some of the waggons in an empty luggage train got off the rails at the Trent Junction points. The earth was ploughed up by the wheels, the waggons scattered in all directions, and many of them smashed. Some of the electric telegraph posts were knocked down, and the wires entangled with the waggons, so that the telegraph could not be worked. The train that should arrive in Derby from London at eleven o'clock was delayed more than two hours by the obstruction upon the line. On Wednesday last a collision took place near to Derby, on the. Birmingham line. Two labourers in the employ of the company, whose duty it is to light the fires and get up the steam, without any authority, and contrary to all orders, took an engine on the Birmingham and Derby line at the time a train was due from Birmingham. The dziver of the Birming ham train immediately he saw them reversed his engine, and blew his whistle for the guards to put on their breaks. The guilty parties, as soon as they saw the train coming, jumped off the engine and ran away. The force of the collision was happily broken by the precautions taken ; but the passengers were much shaken and alarmed. The man at the points, seeing the engine running into the station at Derby by itself, turned it to a siding, or considerable da mage might have ensued. The two men who had taken out the engine were both committed the same day by Mr. Arkwright, to take their trial at the en suing quarter-sessions.—Derbyshire Chronicle. TWO VESSELS IVRECKED. Yesterday morning, between the hours of eight and nine o'clock, two brigs made their appearance in the offing, and many a glass and anxious eye was turned towards them. By ten o'clock a considerable concourse was assembled at the lower Lighthouse, and groups were standing on the highest hillocks, en during the " Pitiless pelting of the storm." all anxiously waiting to see if the vessels would " take the water," and what would be the result. In the meanwhile the life-boat had been launched, and was lying inside of the breakers on the bar, which, like foam-crested hills, were ri s i ng , roar i ng , an d fol lowed each other in terrific majesty, the sea having been lashed into fury by two days and nights of an easterly gale. When we reached the shore one of the vessels seemed to be about three miles off, and the other about one. The nearest stood to the south ward, and went in behind the Ness, but soon re-appeared, tossing amid the fury of the tempest. About half-past eleven o'clock a heavy shower of rain darkened the heavens still more deeply, and nothing could be seen but the roaring ocean, as far as the eye could reach to sea ward. When this cleared away, both vessels were seen in about the line of the river mouth, and the most intense anxiety was manifested in every counte nance, fer, if the attempt was not made to take the water before the top of the flood, all hope was gone, it being impossible for either of the vessels to get round the headlands of Montrose Bay,_ y afteror t e l venre 2 ma l in many hours longer off the shore. Shortly however, all suspense was at an ,e,_Me re,nclo,rfor„ said an then the ne arest stood for the harbour. " experienced captain that was standing near us— " there, my boy, it is the best thing you could have done ; keep her well to the south ard, and there is no danger." The words were hardly out of his mouth when the vessel veered her head to the northward—a thing which seemed to be altogether unaccountable, as there was no safety but only in the attempt to take the harbour before the turn of the tide. " H e h as ; made a fatal mistake , " said the old captain ; " that vessel is lost." The truth of this soon became appa rent to all, for she ran, or rcher was tossed before the wind and sea, until she struck the ground a little to ; the northward of the Annat. When the life-boat men saw her approaching fate, they directed their course to the northward. Their tiny barque, if we may so speak, appeared like a speck am id the f o aming waters. ' Sometimes she seemed to be standing on end, then she sunk beneath the wave as if she had been swallowed up in its foam. As she drew near the intense. A the anxiety o f the multitude became A rope was thrown, but it either broke or was not reached by the boatmen, and to the surprise of all they began to row to the shore. When within hearing "more oars" was the cry, two or thr ee having been broken when alongside the ship. Hun dreds ran for oars, and, in a short time, the boat was again breasting the breakers, urged forward by the wishes of thousands, and the nervous arms of a da ring crew, in whose minds the value of human life seemed to have banished every idea of fear. After a dreadful struggle they reached the side of the vessel, which was known by this time to be the Patriot, of Aberdeen, laden with flax, for Montrose. As her drenched and exhausted crew jumped into the life boat, one after another, the assembled multitude shook in breathless fear in case any one might miss the boat, and meet a watery grave. When the cheer rose in the boat, intimating that all were safe, the spectators seemed to breathe more freely, and re sponded to it with a feeling of heartfelt joy, which was apparent in every countenance. What we have said of the one vessel is applicable in almost every parti cular regarding the other, the Prompt, of Staton Sluice. As if doomed to follow the same fate, she steered directly towards the Patriot, seemingly with I no intention of taking the harbour of Montrose. She struck the ground a few hundred yards to the north of the Patriot, and for some time rolled so dreadfully that many expected her. masts would fall by the board, and that she would go LIVERPOOL, THUASDA I' FOUR CLOCK.—The announcement that Sir R obert 0 Peel would arrive here yesterday was somewhat too anticipatory. The Right Hon. Baronet does not make good his entree into Liverpool until five o'clock this afternoon. He was anxiously expected to arrive at the Lime-street station by the Trent Valley train, which leaves Rugby at ten o'clock A.M., and which, taking him up at Tamworth by eleven, would deposit hi m i n Liver pool by a quart er past ;hree ; but this train brings intelligence that he will not be here until five o'clock, at which hour the express mail train arrives. Several of the directors of the London and North-Western Railway will meet the Right lion. Baronet on his arrival, with Mr. Creed, the secretary, and Captain Huish, the superintendent; and it is expected that, as Sir Robert Peel is the guest of Mr. Charles Lawrence, the deputy chairman of the North-Western Company, the Right Hon. Baronet will have sotnething to say on the subject of the railway calls and their require ments. The circumstances of the Right Hon. Baro net's visit, though planned with apparent privacy, are universally known, and create considerable sensa tion amongst the citizens, more particularly in that portion of the constituency which partakes , of a free trade complexion. The ex-Premier's last public ap pearance in Liverpool was in 1828, nearly 20 years ago, when, as will be the case on the present occasion, he dined m ith the Mayor, and was presented with the freedom of the borough in a gold box. So tar as we can at present ascertain, Sir It Peel will not take any part in the inauguration of the Huskisson statue; for it is resolved that there shall be no commemorative ceremony whatever, but that the statue of the fore father, if he may be so called, of free trade, and who commenced nearly seventeen years ago what Mr. Cobden and Sir H. Peel have carried out to a con summation, is to be placed on its pedestal almost before daylight, and without the slightest demonstration. What the reason for this is we cannot clearly commu nicate, unless it be that the town and Corporation of Liverpool, in their adherence to the forms of mere business, or to the solemn recollections the people are supposed to entertain of the fate of Huskisson, give a preference over that of every other mode to this sim ple and unostentatious style of paying a tribute of esteem. Another reason assigned is, that the occa sion is one best befitting the absence of ceremony and of the assemblage of a multitude of people; another, that it is a gift to the town and Corpora tion, who merely take an " honorary" part in the proceedings of the deceased statesman's relict, and erected entirely at her own cost, and that, therefore, it is a matter in which, though the people of Liverpool have not taken the initiative, they nevertheless, by the before-named method, give sufficient expres sion to the propriety and purpose of the thing by ap propriating to it a conspicuous site in front of the Custom. house. It is now nearly seventeen years since Mr. Huskisson was killed, at the anniversary of the opening of the Liverpool and Manchester Rail way, in 1830, when the Duke of Wellington and other celebrated personages were present, and although on that occasion there was a public procession of the nobility and gentry, it does not by any means appear to be considered a matter of supererogation to estab lish this renewed, though tardy, memorial of esteem. The statue, at present in the yard of the Corporation, is by Mr. Gibson, who is here to superintend its ele vation on the pedestal, which is one of granite, with the simple inscription " William Huskisson" upon it, without either date, comment, or description. It is of bronze, cast in Holland, light and graceful, with an eneircling togs, &c., the tout ensemble being from drawings by Mr. Gibson, sent from Rome. Mr. Huskisson's widow defrays all the exposes. The workmen are engaged in completing the pedestal to-day. Tomorrow (Friday) Sir R. Peel, escorted by the Mayor and Corporation, and Members of the borough, will visit the docks and principal buildings in Liver pool, and will then proceed by steamer to Birkenhead to view its docks, railways, &c. On returning, a grand dinner will be given at the Town-hall by the Mayor, Corporation, and gentry. . • IRONMASTERS' QUARTERLY MEETING. BIRMINGHAM, THURSDAY. —This afternoon the ironmasters of South Staffordshire and Shropshire held their usual quarterly meeting in our Town-hall. The attendance was unusually numerous, and the reports of all engaged in the trade confirm its healthy condition. There are still large orders in the houses, both of home and foreign requirements, and, as a con3equence, a determination has been arrived at to stand by existing prices. The figures are for Staffordshire bars 101., and for pigs from '4/. 15s. to 5/. ss. per ton, according to quality. We believe, too, that there has been less of underselling by the smaller makers during- the quarter just ended than accounts has passed off satisfactorily, the difficulties has been known for several years. The settlement of caused in other parts of the country, consequent on the very serious monetary panic, not having yet affected to any extent the trading interests of this district. Jieports which have been current for a day or two respecting the unsatisfactory condition of the affairs of a company interested in the iron trade, and working out a patent, have to-day received confirmation. A meeting of the proprietary will be convened forth with, and a proposition will be submitted, whether it is expedient to make another " call," or at once to wind up the affair. It is most probable that the latter alternative will be resolved upon ; but in no case will the creditors suffer to the extent of a fraction. On a rough calculation, it is not improbable that at the present time the company is employing 2,000 pair of hands. The continued satisfactory condition of the coal trade is the only other fact we have to report. Upon the whole the aspect of the commercial concerns of the district aftbrds, when contrasted with those of other parts of the country, matter for much congra tulation. --- CLEANLINESS ESSENTIAL TO HEALTH.—The ship Emma Watts, S. Watts.jun., commander, arrived at New York on the 6th instant, forty-one days from Liverpool. She brought 165 emigrants, without having a single case of sickness on board, which can only be attributed to the fact that the passengers and vessel were kept clean. On leaving Liverpool, Capt. Watts constructed a large bath on deck, in which he compelled both men, women, and children to clean themselves every day. Their quarters between decks were likewise scrubbed and washed every morning before fires were lighted, and then chloride of lime was thrown into the crevices, vinegar steamed, alum put into their drinking water, ventilation, and other pre. cautions used to prevent sickness. The result of these precautions, so vigorously enforced, was, that not a single case of sickness occurred. The health officer, t quarantine, pronounced them the finest looking passen g e rs he had seen, and the ship was all owe d to Come ately up to the city with scarce asanenahours detentioinm.meNdVie cannot too much admire the humane and nd histes resolute ; con ducthe of Captain Watt s i n t h e command of has unquestionably saved a number of li ves an d pre vented much mis er y, besides setting a noble example for others to follow. The only true preventive of s hip f ever is cleanliness, an d we are g lad to record an illustration, which we hope will be remembered by every captain and owner. —New York Sun. THE MILITARY AND THE BASTARDY ACT .—The d i seseuiesidonh asofoatohseed some e ney and Solicitor G enera l s j us t caused s ensation ty magistratesa t the courtsme tr o o p f o l g i t a a r n police courts and the. rison towns, it being decided that soldiers upon whom orders of affiliation may be made cannot be legally taken into custody by the civil authorities, and which Mr. Jeremy observed yesterday that he sincerely regretted was a most cruel case. John Thomson, servant to Colonel Cleveland, was brought before him ; the heart less fellow set the magistrate at defiance, and was ordered out of Court. Mr. Jeremy said that such a law was never intended, and until the Legislature met and ob viated the evil, he had no doubt that all commanding officers would find some means of punishment. Garrison I towns would become scenes of debauchery and vice. THE LATE MURDEROUS OUTRAGE IN WEsT 31INSTER.—Mr. Bellchambers, the person upon whom a murderous attack was made by a gang of thieves on Monday morning, was in the course of yesterday after noon able to articulate two or three monosyllables in it is to be hoped that, although in reply to the inquiries of his medicalim m a i t n te e n n d t an d t a , ng a e n r d , he may yet, by a continuance of skilful treatment, recover. MILITARY CHANGES.—We understand that the depot of the 93d Highlanders will arrive in this city from Dublin is the course of this week, when the re serve battalion of the 76th Regiment will proceed to Berwick-upon-Tweed, there to await the arrival of transports for their conveyance to Corfu, —North British Maid LIABILITIES.

" The probable ultimate surplus has increased during the year from 57,6901. 9s. id. to 61,9401. 19s. 10d. This arises from the receipt of 8531. 10s. on account of the calls, and the sum of 3,3971. realised beyond the estimates, on accounts now finally closed, after deducting interest and expenses. " On the 30th of September the funds amounted to 20,0621., and the liabilities to 18,4441., showin g a surplus of cash at command of 1,6181. over and above the sum required for the entire liquidation of, the debts of the bank. " With a view to place before the shareholders an account of their past labours, the directors would refer to the report of the affairs of the bank, made at the general annual meeting on the 14th October, 1842. It will therein appear that the liabilities of the company amounted to 1,810,4621. 18s. 11d., which vast sum has been finally liquidated, and the proprie tors have now a cash surplus left. They will not fail to perceive that this result could not have been at tained under the embarrassed and difficult circum stances in which the bank was then placed, without great anxiety and persevering exertions on the part of the directors, who may venture to express their own satisfaction in having thus succeeded in fulfilling the task of bringing it to the state presented in the present report. " Considering that the winding up of the affairs of the bank, so far as relates to the discharge of all its debts, with which the directors were charged, has been effected, and that the proprietors, on the 6th February, 1843, passed a resolution that the company should not be dissolved, it appears proper for the pro prietors to consider what may be the most advisable course to be adopted for ensuring to them the great est benefit to be derived from the existing assets of the bank, and from the privileges of its legal position. " The estimated amount of the assets believed, be ultimately realised , but from t in he ay na i t t ur i e s of the property, a considerable length of time, and the continued care a n d attention of the directors, will be requisite to e ff ec t this o bj ect, during which time the rent and other expenses of the bank will have to be continued. " By order of the Board of Directors, (Signed) "G. R. CHAPPELL, Chairman." Mr. 111.1LuNcroN rose 'to move the adoption of the report, and in doing so congratulated the shareholders on the success which had attended the winding up of the concern. After a lapse of five years, in which the directors had experienced many difficulties, it was to him, as it must be to the shareholders at large, a source of pleasure to find that after paying alt liabili ties there was a surplus of 1,6001. He did not know whether that was a proper time or not to suggest the idea, but he hoped the shareholders would adopt some substantial testimonial of their regard to the members of the board who had done so much to save the con cern. He might also say that the charter by which the bank was established was as good in law as it ever was, and he would further add that in the charter itself there was considerable property, which he hoped would some day be turned to the advantage of the shareholders. Mr. W. HILL seconded the adoption of the report, which, after some explanations as to the nature of the charter, and the mode of rendering it useful, was carried unanimously. Mr. MARSHALL moved the re-appointment of Messrs. G. R. Chappell, J. C. Dyer, and John Gouldsborough, as directors. Mr. LOWE seconded the motion, which was carried unanimously. Mr. J. C. DYER addressed the meeting at some length on the desirableness of turning the charter to some good and profitable account for the shareholders, and suggested the propriety of appointing a com mittee to confer with the directors as to the best course to be pursued. The directors had not consi dered it their duty to recommend any plan, and there were two ways in which the charter might be ren dered profitable. The first was that there was plenty of room for a new bank in Manchester, which want this bank could supply, and he thought it quite possible that parties interested in banking affairs in Manchester might buy it, and thereby avoid another rival. After a good deal of desultory conversation, the matter dropped.
