Morning.. 8 minutes after 7. 1 Evening .. 43 minutes After 7. tatiltikt altnt LONDON, TUESDAY. NOVEMBER 16, 1847. The National Anti-Gold.law League held their sixth public meeting by day evening. While numerous plans are day y nt da'yput forward, advocating a variety of views,ddifferent any of which would be more advanta geous to the thecountry than the present of system, the ori g i nators League an d it s c hi e f orators are steadil y adhering to the pri nc i p l es pro mulgated on the formation of gaining new converts t o their doctrineste association, an d and additio na l strength to their body. The quantity of informa tiont afforded at each meeting—the clear and satisfac tory explanations on every point of controversy the sound arguments adduced, are forcin g conviction upon upon every unprejudiced and disintere s t e d e ti°n son. To those ge n t lemen wh o have devoted pr. thernselves to the task of enlightening the public mind on this by far thr most important question o f the day, who have spared no exertions to promote the prosperity of their country, which they believe to be dependent on a sound and speedy solution of the problem, a deep debt of gratitude is due for the zeal azid energy they have displayed and are display. ing. Now, they have to encounter the obloquy, the sneers, and the ridicule which are substituted for argume nt in the early stages of a controversy. Per sons, Vacs are unable to refute the reasons they bring f rwardt, will endeavour to pooh-pooh the question, as if the • is cent was absolutely too plain for discussion — One which any child or old woman could understand as fully as those intelligent men who ha v e laboriously ocsupleithemselvestber w eo e n. Hereaft er , w h en it h as be come more, fashionable,hnuouty influential m en h ave recorded tjieir t opinions as the necessity for a ra dical reformation of the monetary code, when a majority, or even a strong and rapidly-increasing minority, of the anti-bullionists have forced the Minister of the day to make concessions to the general feeling, when the conflict is nearly over, and certain victory awaits them, numbers will flock to their standard, anxious to participate in their triumph; but although such volunteers will ever be received with open arms, and although they, in common with the entire nation, will be benefited by the adoption of a free and unrestricted currency sufficient for the wants of the country, the chief honour must be accorded to the original labourers, to the enthusiastic men who have formed the vanguard, and have abided by their colours, under every change, through evil report and through good report. The Chairman of the League (Mr. BENNOCH) last night exposed one of the great fallacies of the bul lionists. They argue that gold should be the only standard of value, and that as one of the chief elements of a standard or measure of the value of every other description of commodity, should be its own unvarying value, therefore gold should be main tained at a fixed price. This, however, is palpably absurd. There is perhaps no article that has varied more in its intrinsic value than gold itself, or in which there have been greater fluctuations. Gold is, in fact, but the produce of one description of labour, and the attempt to maintain gold at a fixed price is to endeavour to make that one description of labour regulate all others. It has been well said that "we must not seek for the cause of value in commodities them selves, but in something extrinsic and external, and that external cause is the quantity of labour required to obtain them. In this quantity of labour lies the true measure of value." The object of this labour may be to supply an actual want, it may produce something of real utility, which is absolutely es sential to our comfort or happiness ; or it may be expended on something which merely gra tifies some fancy, or arbitrary desire, of those who are enabled to apply to the acquisition of that which they wish for, and to which they attach an ideal importance, the superfluous means of which they are possessed. In any case, it is the amount of the labour required for the attainment that regulates the value of the object, and valuable property, or what is termed ca pital, is nothing but hoarded labour in various shapes and in various amounts. The attempt to make gold, or even gold and silver, or any precious metals, the only circulating medium is to make the real foundation of every description of value—labour--dependent on the amount that has been applied in one direction and hoarded up. If we have not gold, manufactures of every descrip tion, all kinds of industrial pursuits, and every species of reproductive employment is to be brought to a stand. Because there is a deficiency of the pro - ducts of one kind of labour (and that not the labour of our own countrymen, or that on which they can be employed in their native land), myriads of men able and willing to work, are to be kept in compulsory idleness, and prevented from adding to the cumu- tive property of the country in works of real and positive utility, by which time and space may be practically almost annihilated, and the greatest facilities given to the internal commerce and traffic of the country. Because foreigners and aliens have not worked as industriously as they might have done, or we have not enough of the products of their labour, our own children are to be prevented from employing themselves in useful pursuits. As well may it he said that, because the workmen of Birmingham had turned out, and refused to labour, the mills of Manchester should be closed, and its numerous ope ratives exposed to the greatest privations. The precious metals are undoubtedly useful for the purpose of carrying on our foreign commerce. They are also valuable for many other purposes ; but it is ridiculous to say that therefore they must be the sole medium of exchange—that our home productions cannot be exchanged without their intervention There may be something which will always com mand a value for home use, inasmuch as it would enable the possessor to bear his portion of the burdens to which he may be obliged to contribute for the satisfaction of our debt and the support of our national establishments—that would represent every description of accumulated property in the country which, under a State guarantee, 'would be liable therefor, and also the labour which should be given by those who were not possessed of property, to satisfy their liabilities to the community. Such a circula tion, valueless in itself—but representing value—and made a legal tender upon all occasions, is what we require, and England will never be really prosperous until it is conceded. As the star-spangled banner of the United States fluttered triumphantly on the walls of Chapultepec thirty soldiers were hung in front of the American forces. The cruelties perpetrated by 11En NAN CORTEZ, on his first expedition into Mexico, Inve been sur passed in barbarity and heartlessness, by the heroic commanders of the Model Republic.. If despotism can be symbolized by a knce, Ains-?rican republi• canism may be henceforth represented by a gallows, and this from the same spirit of ltisi.orie heraldry which would indicate French repvll icanism by a guillotine. Never, we undertake to aver most dis tinctly, never has national reputation been so dis graced, not even by the ineendiarisms of the bocage or the noyadcs of Nantes—not b, the rigour of WESTERMANN or the callousness of NARVAEZ— as the nationality of the United States has been disgraced by one of its subor dinate officers at Mexico. That it may not be conjectured that our sympathy is exa gp,erated or our indignation of superfluous violence, *we shall detail, in a few syllables, those incidents •of unchristian vengeance which have stigmatised with such infamous notoriety the name of an otherwise unnoticeable martinet. Whatever troops have been marched'. :into California or into the more southern portions of ft lexico, in ac cordance with the directions of the War Department of Washington, have been remarkable for their in congruous character. Such was inevi table. The comparative youth of the United States as an inde pendent power, and the comparative su dd.enness of this unprincipled aggression upon the neig hi bouring terri tories, rendered it impossible that tb 3 army dis patched upon the expedition should be o therwise than singularly heterogeneous. All classes., all nations, all religions, added their quota to the en listment, and diversified more strikingly the moral and physical appearance of the armament. American captains led under their standards not merely the :brave recruits of the United States, but with them lara 'e numbers of mercenaries and adventurers. Among such very doubtful additions to the American for ..;es were bri gades like the handful of Irish soldiers commanded by -Major RILEY, and who deserte d at dirre rent times from the flag of the United States to • serve under that of B 1 exico. On the occasion of the hand-to-hand encounters which preceded the entrance of Genera 1 SCOTT into the capital of the invaded territories, tt ,ese unfortu nate wretches were captured by thei r victorious assailants, and brought to trial in sepa rate batches for the crime of desertion. That militaa 7 discipline is the very soul and existence of an army, and that the rigorous and judicious punishment of desertion is absolutely essential to the maintenance of military discipline, are truths universally rece gnised and universally accepted. That we a ':knowledge with the utmost distinctness; but it must be remembered, at the same morrient, that a natural distinction has been irtvarfiably made between the desertion of native soldiers and that of mere mercenaries; and it must he especb .ily remem bered that even in cases where the culprit s have been proved most culpabl e , th e i r sentence hat; been pro nounced with a calmness befitting the majesty of justice, and their punishment inflicted ',without any violation of the decenciesof humanity. or of .; t in h e e nt a noblest nd dictates and impulses instance the manner ohouftn7k-tY' In , the present h execution was directly the rverse, judgment was hurried, precipitate, and in/ . s cot ous. The execution was characterized by t 1 te utmost refinement of cruelty and by a fiendish prO longation at once of the ecstacies of revenge and the agonies of despair. Although sixteen deserters We 7e hung on the 9th ultimo at San Angel, and four more on the following morning at Mixcoac, tt thirst for the United on the part of th e commar der s of United States was unslaked. The crib e to which we would especially direct attention was reserved for a more remarkable opportunity ; it was to consecrate a victory, and to associate with the glory of their regiments the g,L om of their tribunals. It was not enough that a dozen men, who could not have been formally convicted, were subjected to the degrading chastisement of the lash; it was not enough that the letter " D " was branded upon each man's cheek ; it was not enough that RILEY had writhed under a whip of raw hide, wielded by a Mexican muleteer; the consummation of these cruelties was delayed until the 13th ultimo, when a deed was to be performed before which the ruth less heart of the most sanguinary dictator might have quailed. On that day, thirty of these Irish deserters were brought out in a body at Mixcoac. They were pinioned ; ropes were about their necks, and they stood each man under a gallows. It was a moment when the most pitiless might have refrained from enhancing their anguish; it was one of those mo ments when the most dastardly ruffian finds his evil passions relenting, and when the stoicism of the hangman himself has been known to soften. For nearly two hours Death stared those thirty men in the face—during that hor rible interval they remained each one with the halter round his neck, and the beams of the gibbet over his head, shuddering on the verge of the grave, drinking from the bitter chalice of dissolution slowly to the last drop of its dregs of agony. For these protracted and unparalleled torments, the thirty deserters were indebted to a Colonel of the United States army, who had pointed to the neighbouring battlements of Chapultepec, and declared to these doomed men that the signal of their execution should be the capture of that stronghold, and the appearance upon its walls of the banners of the American Republic. When at last the stars and stripes rose triumphantly above the stones of Chapultepec, these thirty men " were all swung off together." The name of this colonel was HARNE T. Of all the atrocitia ever perpetrated in warfare, not one is recorded more cool, deliberate, and devilish in its cruelty. It is a fitting illustration of the sentiments of rapine and injustice in which this Mexican invasion has originated. It is a testimony, moreover, that the Americans have received a terrible reception from their opponents, for it is among the most famous re marks of the most wonderful soldier who ever trod the earth, that whenever an army is ruthless in vic tory, be sure it has very narrowly escaped defeat ! , ... 4" - ,llitt e • Ac, t ),,,,,,,it ' • ' a .i: _ __ . ,_ , ..,• - •4 Z • , . \"*. ,A -; ,- 0 i ,tt , .. ..... , -,, . i l 'r i i'i t - ..,.. .:, - ' t ......r.... , . ! • '4l' -m. G ' THE SUN, LONDON, The Earl of MINTO arrived in Rome on the 3d. Cardinal FERRETTI, in reply to a demonstration on the part of the people, requesting him to continue in office, declared that, though anxious for retirement, he would retain office for the present, and would not quit it as long as he considered his continuance in the administration of affairs of advantage to his country. The Modenese troops took possession of Fivizzano on the sth instant, in spite of the protestations of the inhabitants, who wished to remain incorporated with Tuscany. It is said that Austrian troops entered the state of Modena at the request of the GRAND DUKE, in order that the Modenese troops might be at liberty to act against Fivizziano. The Prince GONZAGA, of Mantua, who is now at Rome, has been received with great distinction by the PorE, and has had offered to him by an illustrious personage the Duchy of Modena, in compensation of the territory of Mantua, of which his ancestors were deprived. The Prince of GONZAGA has been long known in this country, and we rejoice to find that his claims are at length about to be even partially acknowledged, and that some compensation is about to be made to him for the injustice of which for years he has bee❑ the victim. A letter from Aarau of the 9th, in a German jour nal, says that at two o'clock in the afternoon of that day distinct sounds of a heavy cannonade were heard in the direction of Friburg, which lasted for more than an hour and a quarter. The sound of heavy artillery was also heard in the direction of Gillikon. The same journal adds that America had offered to advance three million francs to the Diet at the usual rate of interest. The Diet has contracted a loan at Frankfort at the rate of seven per cent. The Ger man journals contain reports of skirmishes in dif ferent parts of Switzerland. Lieutenant-Colonel AUFDERMAITY, of Schwytz, commander of the first battalion of the Landsturm, was found assassinated in his bed at Lachen on the evening of the Bth. Madrid papers of the Bth have arrived. They all contain allusions to the probability of some further changes in the Cabinet so soon as Senor MoN shall arrive in Madrid, but nothing certain is known on the subject. MADRID BoLqA, Nov. B.—The Three per Cents. closed at 26 9-16, at sixty days; the Five per Cents. at 14i for paper ; Passives, cli., paper ; Coupons, 11, paper. We have received the Paris papers of Sunday. The remains of Count BRESSON arrived on the 11th at Marseilles, on board the Magellan steam frigate. The Couhtess BRESSON and the on of the deceased statesman were on board the Magellan, and will accompany the body to Paris. The Journal des Debats makes the following cor rections of some inaccuracies which have appeared on the subject of Count BRESSON in some of the Oppo sition papers : "However painful it may be to come back upon he circumstances which preceded the cruel and re gretted death of Count Bresson, we nevertheless think it right to correct some inexactitudes which have been committed on that occasion. Thus, it has been said that Count Bresson, at the time of his journey to London, had met with an excellent reception from Lord Palmerston, and had made that a ground to demand on his return to Paris the London embassy, on account of the favour with which he expected to be received by the English Ministry. On this point we will limit ourselves simply to reply that Lord Palmers ton at that period was not in London, and that M. Bresson had no occasion to see his Lordship during the time he passed in England. It has been said that M. Bresson, after refusing the office of Minister of Marine, accepted the embassy of Naples with regret, and that it was only with bitter displeasure that he went to fill a post inferior to that which he had quitted. We believe that we know, on the contrary, that the embassy at Naples had been given to Count Bresson at his own desire. If we are well informed, it was M. Bresson himself, after having in fact refused the Ministry of the Marine, which he had at first ac cepted, requested M. Guizot to propose to the King that the Duke de Montebello should fill that post, and that he expressed at the same time a wish to be the successor pf the Duke de Montebello at Naples. It is, therefore, entirely untrue to say that the sending of M. Bresson to Naples was even the indirect cause of the annoyance which led to his deplorable end. It has also been said that M. Bresson had written from Rome to M. Guizot, asking to he sent back to Madrid, but that in answer he received a formal order to proceed to Naples. This assertion is as inexact as the others. The answer of the Minister of Foreign Affairs to M. Bresson left Paris the very day that the frightful news which has caused such deep and una nimous g rief was received." The following observations on the formation of the Italian Customs' Union are from the Presse : The creation of an Italian Zollverein is not merely a great event in a political point of view; it is one of high interest considered commercially. Here is Austria caught as if in a vice, with the German Association on the one side and an Italian one on the other. She evidently must surmount her old dislikes and join one or other. As far as France is con cerned, she ctinnot but see with a lively satisfaction the Italian populations uniting together under the same customs' legislation. Italy will thus become a market which will merit being in demand on account of ita importance. What interest had we to unite ourselves commercially with nations which only offered us a few thousand consumers ? None. There has hitherto been too great a disproportion between them and us, for us to find it our advantage to enter on an intimate con nection with their microscopic markets. But in face of an association which appears destined to increase and to gradually absorb all the States, and to put an end to the small divisions into which the Peninsula is broken up, the situation becomes completely changed, and holds out the germ of an useful alliance. It re- mains to be seen if our Government will know how to reap advantage from this new situation. If we are f to : :110 u N d y g e d e of wi t i h t s respect probable t o the policy Germanin thi sresp Association, ectby bu that; little is t o b e h ope d f or. I t i s remarkable that thy: Cabinet, s i nce i t came i nto existence, has attempted, three or four treaties of commerce, either dangerous or null, and has not appeared to think of enlarging the circle of our relations with the German Zollve raeninallwiahniceeh Nrveitehkownislictihdreto3.u, l m d il n li o o t n s b o e of p c r o o n fi s u t a m b l e e r s t , o a u n s d . It will be seen that no attention will be paid either to the Italian Zollverein." The reform movement progresses, notwithstanding the momentary check which it received at Lille. A. TWESDAY EVENING, NOVEMBER 16, 1847. grand banquet h to take place at Lyons on the 23d inst., and one at St. Gcranzins, under the Presidency of M. ODILLON BAIIROT, on the 21st. A grand banquet to3k place at Bahune on the 14th. At Valenciennes and Epinal banquets have also taken place. A banquet is preparing at Chateaudun. The banquet at Rouen will take place on the second week of December, a few days before the opening of the Chambers, and that will probably close the series of manifestations in favour of reform. The Union Medicole, while it admits that an iso lated case of Asiatic Cholera has occurred, denies that the epidemic influence is in Paris, and contends that there is no cause for alarm. The French Three per Cents. were on Sunday, in the Passage de I'Opera, at 77f. 17ic. Scarcely any thing was done. The loan was not negotiated.

EXTENSIVE CONFLAGRATION AT GREAT EALING.-(THIS DAY.) This morning, between the hours of two and three, a fire, attended with a considerable destruction of property, broke out upon the premises belonging to Mr. Hall, a marine store dealer, situate at Great Ealing, near the church. The flames were first dis covered by one of the villagers. An instant alarm was raised, but such a strong hold had the flames obtained, that in a few minutes the building, from the bottom to the top, presented one immense!sheetof fire. Owing to the danger: to which the adjoining houses . were exposed, the various inmates were soon busily engaged in removing their furniture to a more dis tant part for protection, and many of the parties had scarcely sufficient time to dress themselves. Seeing that the house was completely enveloped in fire, great interest was evinced for Mr. Hall, the owner. Search was made among the crowd of persons congregated together, but the only tidings that could be obtained of him was, that he was at the Rose and Crown public-house opposite, drinking with a friend till a late hour the overnight, and that no one had seen him afterwards. The necessary intelligence having been sent to the fire stations, the parish en gines from Ealing and Old and New Brent ford arrived, but the fire still progressing, an express was sent to London for additional aid. The moment the news arrived Mr. Staples started with one of the brigade engines, and Mr. Connorton with that of the West of England Company. Upon arriving at the scene of the disaster, the building in which the flames commenced was almost gutted, and the only supply of water that could be obtained was from a pump a long distance from the seat of the fire. By attaching additional lengths of hose to the engine the firemen were enabled to reach the flames, and by great perseverance they happily succeeded in getting the fire extinguished, but not before Mr. Hall's stock in trade was totally destroyed, and the building gutted. When the reporter left Great Ealing, Mr. Hall had not been seen by any of the firemen, and it is at pre sent unknown whether he has perished in the flames or not. THE PRINCE OF GONZA_GA MANTUA. A letter from Turin, of November 5, says—The unexpected appearance here of the Prince of Gonzaga Mantua has raised a question of the grayest import ance in the higher regions of power. Every one knows that his Royal Highness has been received officially at Rome by the Holy Father, who by such reception has solemnly recognised the Prince as the true and legitimate descendant of the illustrious house of that name, and consequently as the heir to its great domains. The Cabinet of Turin, which makes it a point of honour to tread in the footsteps of Pius IX., would hail with satisfaction as a neighbour an Italian Prince restored to his rights, but a great obstacle is opposed to this project; it is the Austrian domination. It appears that an illustrious personage has pro posed to his Highness, in compensation for the states which were seized from his ancestors, the Duchy of Modena, of which the actual possessor neither has nor will have any children. This proposition, moreover, is in conformity with the views of the European Courts, who would not be displeased to diminish the number of Italian sovereignties. However this may be, we have ascertained from an undoubted source that the Prince, without having positively refused, has let it be understood that he should prefer re gaining his dear Mantua, and living in the midst of his old subjects. This passed on the 3d inst. It was also reported that his Highness visited his Majesty the King of Sardinia, who manifested the greatest interest and kindness towards him. I give you this intelligence without vouching for it. All that I can assure you is that the Prince has xlively sympathy among many enfctihteedhigthheest rank kste diplomatic world. in th Alexander de Gonsaga Mantua, born and brought up in the school of exile, joins to a profound know ledge of men and things, amenity of character, nobleness of sentiments, and a proved talent for mili tary affairs. A single interview has taught our statesmen to appreciate his character, and he has in spired them with a high esteem for his person. The numerous population inhabiting the de licious valleys of the Mincio, will, no doubt, hail with delight the happy moment which shall restore to them a Prince so generous, so amiable, and so beloved, and who, as the partizan. of the policy of Pius IX., which is the union of liberty with religion, will powerfully second his efforts, if need be, with his sw or d i n th e honour able and difficult task which he has undertaken. Assuredly, his official reception by Pius IX. is an act of deep meaning, and affords the most illustrious tes- timony of reparative justice, which it is possible to render to rights forgotten and ignored by the Treaty of Vienna, to the august descendant of the house of Gonzaga Mantua. Alexander King of Jerusalem, who deigns to honour us with his particular support, and whom we know personally, merits richly, by his solid virtues and by his talents, to be restored to the possessions of his ancestors, who were unjustly deprived of them, and that against the loudly expressed desires of the population who blessed their paternal Government. May our wishes and those of our worthy correspondent be soon realised in favour of the Prince. This is all the evil that we wish to the land of Virgil and of so many other geniuses. —La Voix Catholique de Geneve. Putvy COUNCIL.—Her Majesty will hold a Privy Council on Monday next. Yesterday summonses were issued to the several member of the Cabinet, for a Council this afternoon. WINDSOR CASTLE, MONDAY EVENING. To morrow morning his Royal Highness the Prince Consort rill leave the Casale, at nine, for Slough, and go from thence by special train to London, to preside:at a meet ing of the Commissioners of Fine Arts. His Royal Iligl , ness will return to Windsor Castle in the afternoon. Lord and Lady John Russell received a distin guished circle to dinner last evening, at the Noble Lord's mansion, in. Cheshana-place. The Lord President of the Council (the Marquis of Lansdowne) arrived in town yesterday, from Bowood Park, Wilts. offered by his w id ow , Notwith s t an di ng th e i r con diti o nal acceptance, we believe it i s not f i nally dec id e d by the Committee of Lloyd's wh ere t h e statue o f t h e late Mr. Huskisson, shall be placed. The vestibule, in which it h as b een suggeste d t h a t it should stand, is not only much too small for a colossal statue, but is already occupied by a statue of Prince Albert, who laid the foundation stone off the Royal Exchange. In contiguity with that, such a very large statue as that of Mr. Hus kisson would have the effect of making it appear dimi nutive. Neither would the peculiar costume accord with the graceful and full robe of Prince Albert. It is doubtful, also, whether the floor is sufficiently sustained to bear the enormous weight of such a very large statue. Besides, it may be a question whether strict etiquette would quite warrant the statue of a subject being placed in the contracted space already occupied by one of royalty. - The Rectory of Clapham, Surrey (diocese of Win chester), vacant by the death of the Venerable Arch deacon Dealtry, D.D., has been conferred on the Rev. T. B. Bowyer, M.A.; patron, W. B. Atkins, Esq. THE GREAT WESTERN RAILWAY.—On the Oxford and Gloucester branches new carriages are running ; they contain at the extreme end second-class carriages, and the two middle, first class, and aro lighted up, and made very comfortable. Rear-Admiral Dundas, C. 8., has returned to his residence in the Admiralty from Windsor Forest. His Excellency the Duke de Broglie received the following distinguished circle to dinner at the French embassy :—His Excellency the American Minister and Mrs.Baanndcrovfti,sctoluientEeassrl Palmerston, and C Baron• Granville, Koller, Vis countthe Right Hon. Thomas B. 'Macaulay, Mr. A. Fould, Count and Countess de Jarnac, Count Henri do Beam, M. Rabaudy, and M. Felix Cotter. Mrs. Hele, late of Tunbridge Wells, has be queathed 1,0001. to the Sussex Hospital. MONEY and COMMERCIAL NEWS CITY, QUA: ER 10 THREE. The Cotton Market at Liverpool yesterday was more animated. Sales :about 5,000 bales, and American was about *d per lb. higher. American 44d. to 64d. Rail way shares were better, with greater disposition to buy. The advices received from the United States by the steamer are favourable in regard to the condition of the mercantile community, no failures having occurred ; but the mistrust excited by the stoppages here was more marked, and has induced a remittance of bullion, not withstanding the balance of trade is in favour of America. It appears probable that the Money Market on the other side of the Atlantic will become more stringent, and that the Treasury will need fresh supplies of cash to carry on the Mexican war. It would be most important to Europe, as well as to the United States, were the contest brought to a close, but of which, unfortunately, there d oes not appear to be any immediate prospect. It is stated that " the demand for foreign exchange for remittance by the Boston steamer of the Ist proximo has not been as yet very active. There is so little confidence in bills that many will be induced to ship specie, even at a loss. We quote bills on London at 81 to 9 per cent. premium; on Paris, sf. 224 c. to sf. 20c.; Amsterdam, 40i. to 404; Hamburg, 36 to 36k; Bremen, 79 to 794. The suspension of the house of Reid, Irving, and Co. caused considerable anxiety among those interested in the Bank of Charles ton, S.C., as it was reported that a large amount of bills had been protested. The bank has made a statement to this effect. The total amount of drafts drawn by them upon Reid, Irving, and Co., since the Ist of July to the present time, amounts to 1,3341. 14s. 4d., and tile drafts were all at sight, and for sums from 1/. to 100 L ith one or two exceptions." Adverting to the London failures, it is stated that " the nature of the foreign business of Prime, Ward, and Co. was such that a very large portion of their assets was in the hands of parties on the other side, and their losses there will absorb nearly the whole of them, leaving liabilities in this country of nearly half a million or dollars, upon which not more than five or ten cents. oil the dollar can be paid. This, therefore, is a bad failure ; but so far the only one here growing out of the commercial connexion existing between this country and England." In Canada the timber trade was very inactive. The arrivals of shipping at Quebec exhibit a decrease of 105,281 tons, as compared with 1846, to Oct. 26. Flour at Montreal was dull at 28s. 9d. to 30s. per barrel for Quebec and the lower ports. A considerable number of parties connected with the West India, the East India, and other trades, attended this morning at the sales announced to take place by Messrs. Trueman and Cook, who had a considerable quantity of Coffees and Safflower in this day's cata logue, for public competition. Long before the sales were commenced the room was tolerably crowded, and th a almost universal topic of conversation was the sus pension of yesterday. At one o'clock crowds entered the sale-room, and the auctioneer mounted into the ro strum. There was a pause for a few seconds, when the conditions of sale were referred to, and the bid • dings for Coffee commenced. Those who came to he ar if any remarks would be made upon a recent stuppage, walked out, evidently disappointed, and the business of the day proceeded in its ordinary course. The circular issued by Messrs. Trueman and Cook will e3.plain how the brokerage business for the future is to hie , conducted. In the Consol market a much better feeling has pre y ailed this morning than was apparent yesterday. For tl le Account the value commenced at 84 a❑ advance then took place to 841, and at present 84i is about the p rice. For immediate Transfer the rate was 83a, and s.xin after 84i. The other stocks have risen in an equal proportion. The value of Exchequer-bills is is. pre mium to Is. discount. East India Bonds are at 18s. to 225. discount. Bank Stock continues at 188 to 189. In the Foreign Stock Market the principal transac tions have been in Russian, at a fall from 1061 to 106; in the Old Portuguese Five per Cents. at 78; in Chilian at a rise from 86 to 88; in Mexican at 15i; and in the Dolch Two-and-a-Half per Cents. at 54. The business done in the Railways was not of much imports nce. Midland Consolidated Preference, North British, and a few other shares, are up a little. ONE CLOSINI3 PRICES I CIF BRITISH FUNDS.

QUEEN'S BENCH.—(THIS DAY.) (Sittings in Banco.) THE BISHOP OF MANCIIESTVI. CRIMINAL INFORMATION.-THE QUEEN V. GUTTERLDO"'" At the sitting of the Court this morning, The ATTORNEY-GENERAL said it WO h i, du e .. ty to make an application to the Court in a matter ef t h greatest importance, and on behalf o f the Reverent' Gentleman who had recently been appointed toole the see of Manchester. He had to apply to the Cy on behalf of the Rev. James Prin ce Lee, f o r a rule le a gentleman'named Gutteridge, c riminal i nformation of Birra should not be filed against him for a racter of the Rev. Gentleman whom he represented. The libel complained of was only one of a large series_ Ingham, to show cause ;by a libel on the cha of attacks which had been made u p on the character of the reverend gentleman by the defendant. Heretofore he had allowed them to pass unnoticed and 'mow tradicted ; but having recently been appointed t° the important bishopric of Manchester —to a high er and wider sphere of labour he felt that the 1 111 ' founded aspersions of which he complained ought ne longer to remain uncontradicted, and that it was dellee to his character — to his see, in which he was known—to demand the fullest investigation. ge felt it his bounden duty to seek the interposition of tbet court, in order to justify his character, and to ) a fford the defendant an opportunity of coming forward to substantiate, if he could—which he contended could not any one of the many charges Which he he had made against him. The statenaent on which he based his application he d 1. 7; cently appeared in the columns of the J ohn wn 134 ent. He felt it more advisable to select the dee which had been so published, in preference to any local newspapers, where there might be that had appeared to the same effect in any of t . , on one side and prejudices on the other. Th e on resolved themselves into the following; That the Rev. Mr. L ee was 13314' guilty o drunkenness, ter was and malignity, and that the wri d. d rea y to substantiate all that he had promulgate It would be necessary for him (the of general) to enter into a brief detail of the arose.ell cumstances out of which these matters _ d Formerly the Rev. Gentleman held the post of goo. master of the Rugby School. He afterwards became a trustee of the Bluecoat School, at Birminghar°o4 which establishment he was instrumental in bring iso partialitibee about numerous salutary reforms. He was ' si n elected to fill the office of a governor of the 13irml, g: ham hospital. There had been a misunderstandor. between Mr. Gutteridge, who at that time Wa5 . ,. 00 , cially connected with the hospital, and Mr. Ire' tice . its medical officer, with respect to a point Gut ter i dge rac In consequence ;`,of these disputes, .51r. sr, ceased to hold his office , and believing the !r. Lee had materially and actively conto co to render his withdrawal necessary, h e bio, menced the; series of gross attacks 12P°° in r e. to which be had referred , imputing malignity dOO s pect to this matter. The defendant comm,enCecon. the Bth of December, 1845, addressing letter" ers• veying these charges, to the different n ewsPa , P vere Now the chargesiset forth by Mr. Gutteridge J ete.. fully investigated by the various gentlemen ca'ne,„uct with the hospital, and the result was that the s e t e r ms , w of Mr. Lee was approved of in the hig . con ..u t , whilst at the same time the proceedings and of Mr. Gutteridge met with from them correspontr. censure. The charges were of the most seriogsgii E mir Le ture, especially against one filling a hig h ' on the office. It was alleged by the defendant that a 14th of January, 1844, that Mr. Lee, bei n g . the master of the school, made an application to one t committeeman of the charity school, Mr. Foster.o at o f the tend, as a clergyman, the sick or death -bed o f oll! . , boys who was dangerously ill, and attended in a state of intoxication. N` riv, l'if . the had happily an opportunity of fixing precise lie date of the day on which this was alleged t.ec'..%., taken place, because after acting in his spiritual ca p s" d w the city at the bed of the youth, he adjourne a fter that M r' t'ePe sehool-room, where he delivered to the boys,. ~..v .vo supper, an address on the Collect or Gospel s e t clu
