MONE IC MARKET and CITY NEWS. SPIRIT of the PUBLIC JOURNALS TO THE PROPRIETORS OF EAST INDIA STOCK. LADIES AND GENTLEMEN, HIS DAY, at the ELECTION of a DI _A RECTOR, I redeemed my pledge at the Ballot; the result was against me. To the friends who on this occasion honoured me with their support, I tender my grateful and respectful acknowledgment. The spontaneous promises of the interest of numerous influ ential Proprietors, the accession of friends no longer divided in their feelings, and the release from adverse engagements of others zealous for my success, induce me, without hesitation, to submit myself again to the sense of the Proprietors. In the confident reassurance that so warmly encouraged and so powerfully supported, the attainment of my great object is only deferred until the next vacancy, when I again pledge myself to proceed to the Ballot. I have th.. honour to be, Ladies and Gentlemen, Your faithful servant, t. 24, 1840. J. BRYANT.

TIMES.—The view taken in the city of the affairs of Hammersley's bank is becoming more unfavourable than at first, and great doubts are entertained of the solvency of the concern. It it is true, as has been cur rently reported, that the sums paid in, against notes issued for circulation abroad, and still out, amounted to not less than 150,0001., the news of the stoppage will spread a degree of confusion and embarrassment over the Continent of which no adequate idea can be formed by the public at large. Many travellers and foreign residents, who have provided themselves with these notes, and these alone, for defraying their ordinary expenses, will find themselves without any immediate resources, end the personal liberty of many may be hazarded by the utter consequent inability to meet the sudden claims upon them. Suppose an Englishman to have set out on a continental tour, and to have previously deposited the whole of his estimated expenses in the course of it in Hammersley's bank, which is a very usual practice, he would be provided with a corresponding amount in notes of from 101. to 501., as he might require, and which he could convert into money, while their credit was unshaken in any town in Europe. The stoppage, however, as soon as the event became known, would render the whole of no value. Some interference has taken place to-day to cover bills sent in for acceptance from parties of known solvency by some of the connections of the banking-house, and it is also said that some of the holders of foreign notes of the better class have had voluntary offers of assistance sent to them by an other banking-house desirous of extending its busi ness in that way, but by far the greater part of Hammersley's transactions are left wholly unpro tected, and there has occurred on the whole less of the competition of the general body of London bankers for that business which must necessarily seek new channels on the failure of any house of magnitude than on any former occasion of the kind. Another source of perplexity is anticipated respecting the division of the assets among the creditors, as it is not likely, if any doubt exists as to the solvency of the house, that the execution of the will which it is under stood has been left by the late Mr. Hammersley will be undertaken by any of the relatives, and the creditors, who are chiefly abroad, or little used to affairs of this kind, will be left to act for themselves as they can.

The County is the only Fire Office which has constantly made Returns to its Members, and for a long series of years. These Returns have varied from 10 to 25 per cent. and have amounted to upwards of 100,0001. In the Life Office, nearly the whole of the profits are divided among the parties insured. Their effect may be judged of from a Policy taken out by his late Majesty on his own life for 3,0001., which additions increased to 3,9631. Upwards of thirty Insurance Offices having been broken up within a few years, and about fifty new ones having been pro jected within the last two or three years, it may be necessary to observe, that all the substantial advantages promised by such new Offices have been long realised under the plans and ma nagement of the Provident Life Office.

The Work which is now presented to the public is the result of very extended experience in a class of diseases and affec thins, which far some unaccountable reason have been either altogether overlooked, or treated with apathy, and almost in difference, by the G' dinary practitioner. To enter into the details of these affections, to point out their causes, and to mark the terrifie consequences, social, moral, and physical, which are sure to follow from indulgence, in certain habits, would be entirely out of place in an advertisement. We have no hesitation, however, in saying that there is no member of society, by whom the book will not be found interesting, whe ther we consider such person to hold the relation of a PA RENT, a PRECEPTOR, or a CLERGYMAN. The PARENT, who beholds his beloved child pining away, and fast approaching to a premature grave, in consequence of some disease, which for want of a careful investigation of its real cause, has been set down to the score of consumption, will, on perusing this work be astonished to find that in nine tenths of the cases of young persons of both sexes, who perish of what is called pulmonary consumption, heart disease, tabes, &c., the sole and exclusive origin has been the indulgence in certain destructive habits, practised by youth much more fre quently than is at all suspected. The PRECEPTOR, also, who holds temporarily, at least the relation and iespensibility of a parent, will, by perusing this work, be directed, and very much assisted in investigating and detecting the too often concealed practiccq so often introduced into s ehatils, whereby the health and ultimately the lives of his pupils paerra time sure , teubee willc m comprom ised, i i s : d d , a u e n l l u e e ss ttchg, guide him be t c h h r e o c u k g e h d the intricate mazes of this moral labyrinth. and a standard whereby to judge, when delicacy of health should appear to attack any of his young charges, what the rea cause of such attack may be, and thus he will be enabled to check the evil in its incipient state. The CLERGYMAN, in whose sacred charact2r, is at once concentrated the twofold relation of parent and instructor, will here be directed as to the nature of those habits, to which youth is addicted ; he will also be enabled to point out the disastrous consequences which are sure to follow from them, if not relinquished.

POST.—The want of confidence observable amongst the jobbers is attributed to the uncertainty which many persons persist in believing to hang over the affairs of the East ; these feelings of anxiety having been much increased by the publication of a third edition of that manufacturer of gorgons and chimeras dire, the Times, who, in the course of the afternoon, has caused Com modore Napier to have captured Beyrout. Of course this announcement will be contradicted to-morrow morning ; but the intelligence has affected the weaker minded of the capitalists, and caused considerable sales of Consols, which closed about = per cent. lower than the quotations of last night. The better informed of the jobbers have not been alarmed by the capture of Beyrout, for, in addition to the great improbability of any such intelligence having been received by the Times, there are persons who appear to think that the price of Consols is too low to be even affected by any " unto ward event." The depression in the foreign exchanges on the last post clay has now been accounted for by the operations of the leading Hebrew firm, whose opinions being favourable to the preservation of the peace of Europe, have induced these capitalists to speculate very largely in the French Rentes, in the expectation that the former prices will be regained upon the final passing away of the rumours of war. Remittances for this purpose have enabled this Hebrew firm to take all the bills which were offered on Tuesday afternoon, and thence the depression in the rates of exchange, but which may not extend to the ensuing foreign post day. The ex changes are, moreover, affected more readily than in ordinary times, since many of the continental bankers have countermanded the drawing credits of their Lon don correspondents, in consequence of the prevailing vague apprehensions of a general war, from the opera tion of which cause the supplies of bills have been greatly reduced within the last few weeks. As affecting the Bank of England and the general probabilities of the money market there is probably nothing in the present state of the exchanges which will not yield to the certainty that Europe is not to be involved in a general war. CHRONICLE.—Money is tight to-clay in Lom bard-street at 5 per cent. The unfavourable state of the Foreign Exchanges has given rise again to rumours that the Directors of the Bank of England are about to use restrictive measures on the circulation by selling a proportion of their securities. If the exchanges do not speedily assume a more healthy aspect, the Bank parlour wilt, no doubt, find it necessary to adopt mea sures of self-preservation to provide against a possible drain of bullion. We have always complained that they have postponed the adoption of a prudent policy until the last moment ; so that when they did begin to apply " the screw," it was requisite to use it with so much force that great embarrassment was produced by a sudden contraction of the currency. On this principle we hoped that the late reported sale of a part of the " dead weight" securities was no fiction, and were disappointed to hear the state ment contradicted at the last general meeting of the partners, because if the Directors had begun to con tract their circulation at a time when money was com paratively easy, the operation could have been effected gradually and with little inconvenience. The following circular hasbeen issued to the customers of the late firm of Messrs. Hammersley and Co.:— " Sir,—lt becomes my painful duty to inform you of the sudden death, from a complaint of the heart, of Mr. Hammersley, the surviving partner of the late firm of Messrs. Hammersley and Co., on Saturday last ; and that in consequence, there being no person to assume the responsibility of carrying on the business, it is ne cessarily brought to a close ; and I am desired at the same time to state, that a further communication will be made to yon as early as possible.

FROM THE HORNING FAFEEs OF THIS DAY. (From the Morning Chronicle.) We are absolutely inundated with letters on the subject of the disputes between the Earl of Cardigan and the officers of his regiment, and the inconsistency of the course pursued by the Horse Guards. The public seem generally to be of opinion that Lord Hill is as much upon his trial as the Earl of Cardigan or Captain Richard Anthony Reynolds. Lord Hill was popular in the army, and the belief is that he would not of himself do a harsh thing ; but then, however brave he may have been in the field, he is evidently without that moral courage, firmness, and self-reliance which are acquired in a Commander-in-Chief. Severity, when all are made equally to feel it, may be supportable ; but partiality is revolting. " Accursed is he" says the Scripture, " who deals with two measures?' In the case of Captain J. W. Reynolds, as we have already more than once observed, there are not two opinions. In every society, the message delivered from Lord Cardigan to Captain J. IV. Reynolds is consi dered insulting. To reproach him with being an Indian officer implies more: than mere want of sense. Where should we have been in the beginning of the Peninsular war, had we not had Indian (!lliccrs ? In India men are constantly obliged to struggle with difficulties, and arc thrown on their own resources. It is only necessary to read the letters of Sir Tnomas Monro, the despatches of the Duke of Wellington, and other genuine materials of history, to understand how officers formed in India must, by the force of circumstances, be greatly superior to officers who strut about parades in England, and have every want immediately supplied without exertion. The Duke of Wellington never could have acquired in Europe the extraordinary acquaintance with all that is necessary to the efficiency of an army, which is so conspicuous in all his despatches. By universal ad mission the weak point of an English army is its help lessness in situations where the regularity of supplies of all kinds to which it has been accustomed ie England no longer exists : but the very men to remedy this de fect are Indian officers. " I think," says the Duke of Wellington, modestly, " I know something of feeding men." His attention in India had been turned to something besides black battles on a mess table. His Indian experience enabled him to convert an English army, little better than a militia, into the best in Europe. With respect to Captain Richard Anthony Reynolds, whose trial comes on this day at Brighton, there is no doubt that he has offended against the rules of the service in challenging a superior officer. What will weigh, too, against him, with many persons disposed to overlook the breach of the rules of the service is the tone of the second letter to Lord Cardigan, which is bad. However much another may forget what is due to him, a man ought never to forget what he owes to himself, propriety of manner. But if it should turn out that this unfelt tunate gentleman has been, as we are informed is the case, fifteen years in the service, and never, until Lord Cardigan became Colonel of the regiment, had any difference with any of his supe rior officers,—not even occasion to write an official letter,—while he has been insulted again and again by Lord Cardigan, and could obtain no redress from the Horse-Guards,—some allowance must be made for him. It is in the power of the Colonel of a regiment to make the officers under him very miserable, and this truth seems to have been forcibly impressed on all who have had the misfortune of coming in contact with Lord Cardigan. We say at once that where any man is found in constant collision with all who approach him, he must possess qualities which unfit him for com mand. A quarrelsome man is usually sent to Coven try ; but unfortunately for subalterns a Colonel cannot be sent by them to Coventry. Lord Hill having been connected in the case of the Earl of Cardigan, seems to consider him tabooed. Well! A Court•martial has been appointed to try Captain R. A. Reynolds for challenging his superior officer. Is it customary for Lord Hill to proceed thus in similar cases ? We think we can mention a case in Lord Hill's own regiment, the Blues, when Lord Hill conveniently forgot to en force the rules of the service. Our readers may re member something of a fracas which took place be tween two officers of that regiment. A blow was struck, a junior officer challenged a senior officer for improper conduct. Did Lord Hill order a Court martial to assemble ? No. Was either of the officers dismissed the service? No. Did the officers im mediately obey Lord Hill's personal orders—that a reconciliation must take place not only between them, but among all the officers of the Blues ? No. We have been reminded of these circumstances by a correspondent who subscribes himself " An Officer," and who concludes his letter thus :—" I ask the public, then—l Irk the army—is Lord Hill's conduct in re gard to this affair of the Earl of Cardigan and Captain Reynolds without favour, partiality, or affection,' to the former ?—No. It is necessary to insert this, that the army may judge of the Commander-in-Chief's con duct—when Peers and Peers' sons are concerned,—or when an officer of little interest." The allusion to Peers' sons will be understood, when we mention that one of the officers of the Blues implicated was the Ho- I pourable Cecil Forrester, a Member of the House of Commons. With respect to the composition of the j Court-martial on Captain Richard A. Reynolds, there are only four captains in it, all the rest being command ing officers ; whereas we are informed that it has been usual to name about half of the rank of the officer to be tried. With respect, too, to the rules of the service, may they not receive too great an extension when they are applied to matters not connected with the service? Does an officer, on entering the army, renounce all right to the treatment which is due from one gentleman to another in private life ? It is admitted, that where the service is concerned, the orders of the superior must be im plicitly obeyed; but in social life may the superior outrage the interior with impunity ? Suppose Lord Cardigan had in society given Captain R. A. Reynolds the lie direct, would he have been obliged to pocket the affront ? Was he entitled in a society in which the latter was not present to speak of him in terms conveying an imputa tion against his character? We leave these points to he settled by gentlemen of the army, though we suspect there are kw who will venture to lay it down, without qualification, that in social life a superior officer may affront an inferior in every conceivable way. Let us put another case which we dare to say has occasionally occurred. As a sergeant of to-day is often a private to morrow, and the private takes the place of the sergeant, they are not so distant in rank as to decline the society of each other. The private is liable to punishment for refusing to obey the orders of the sergeant. But should the sergeant and private be carousing together in a pot house, the sergeant to speak insultingly to the private, and the latter to give his superior a sound thrashing, would the private in such a case be punished? Or SUN.—The Belgian Government, it appears, intends would it be said that the sergeant was rightly served, as he raising part of a loan of 800,0001., say 200,000/, in the had by his foul tongue brought the thrashing on himself ? London Money Market. Setting aside all considerations Is there one rule for an Earl and another for the min as to the general impolicy of foreign loans, we should commissioned officer ?

The only squadron now at sea in the service of Great Britain is that in the Mediter- EVENING EDITION. L T ranean under Sir Robert Stopford. It coedits alto. gether of nine vessels, called, though some of theta e-r, calumniously, ships of the line. In the first place, these ships, much smaller, more lightly framed, and more j feebly armed than those of France. h a v e i rs , to their guns and tonnaze a cempiernent ocitl-Thfrieb" ts' inferior to that of the Freer+ vessels. As a proof of it, an SO or S 4 gun British ship (the Vanguard, for in stance), of 2,609 tons, has a crew compoaed of 435 officers and men, 60 boys, and 150 marines, eitogether 615 in number for a ship which in scantling-. masts, and spars, is as heavy, within seven tons, as the Britannia of of PO guns ; while a French wan-of-mar of similar er mament and tonnage has not less than 800 men. Now let us ask, can it be expected by the krimiralty or the c ountry that a crew of such scanty m aterials, with so large a portion of it consist in g of you can st,o longrlo equal work with 800 me n, or n and fierce a combat ? Is it not physically certain stand a ' d boY that such a crew must be o' erwhelmed and worn out, even by the handling and ril3i COO ring in the ship, when brought into the presence of a foreign man of-war, having on board 800 non, opposition to 650, of whom a tenth are boys? Is it possible that the English crew can work their guns with so much else or advantage as an enemy stronger by at least 150 ? It is said that the crews in numerical strength do not much differ, if at all, from their muster-roll during the war. That is untrue. The establi&.meet for ships of the line was from 40 to 60 hands greater than at present. It is false in another sense, for now, by an Admiralty regulation, a considerable proportion of each ship's company consists of mere boys, without muscular strength or knowledge of seamanship, whereas formerly there was no such delusion practised on thi service. The crews, more numerous than at present, were all arrived at manhood. But if it were true, which it is not, that in physical force and numbers the exist/ ing complements were equal to those of former periods, there is an another gross fallacy behind. For herr. toforc the weight of metal which formed the ship's armament was incomparably less than under the present regulations. Until within these twu or three last years, guns of many different ttf tures or calibres were used on board our men- o f- war . 3 . 2'5, 24's, 18's, 12's, and sometimes evtn on the quer! ter-deck or forecastle 9 pounders, were held to be ads missible upon the batteries. But how is it at present ? Why, nothing less than 32-pounders ere henceforth to be employed, and will any reasonable person allege that the same number of hands can work a two.and-thirty that may prove quite masters of an 18 pound gun ? The Benbow, of 72 guns, which, as a " ship of the line," is bound to encounter the heaviest Frerreh man of- war that offers, though carrying 120 guns, and manned with 1,100 seamen, carries but 862 officers and men, 53 boys, arid 125 marines—in all, 540 hands I Is that fair to the lives and reputations of our seamen ? Is it less than enormous and ejsgraceful inhumanity The effect of it-Acting such hardships on the men, by enders - Dennis); the Queen's ships so unmercifully, iy visible in the repugnance of British sailors to enter on board the fleet. The service has become odious, and able seamen almost unattainable. It is a fact that the Vanguard, one of the finest slips that ever swam, was lately full four months in com mission, and lay considerably more than three months at Spithead, without being able to get a ship's company together. Nor could she have gone to sea at all but for a draught of 100 men front the guard-hip, who were reelaced on board the Britannia by an equal body of pensioners. It was said, indeed, that the Vanguard was peculiarly unlucky —that a certain officer (not the captain, who is an ex cellent tnan and well liked, but that a certain other officer), on whose superintendence tee discipline of the ship depends, and on his temper the comfort or misery of all on board it, had among the seamen the character of harshness and caprice. So the Vanguard, but tor the guardship and the ordinary, might have been at anchor till doomsday. The Britannia, of I'2o guns, is now commissioned and under sailing orders. Tire same dearth of hands which paralyzed the Vanguard would now have rendered motionless the noble three decker, but that another man-of-war, the Donegal, has been brought home from Portugal and turned into a hulk for her equipment. And thus a mere shlt of complement from one vessel to another stands instead of a reinforce ' merit, which the Minto board finds to be beyond its grasp. What, then, becomes of Sir Robert Stopford in such a grievous exigency: With a squadron of nine sail—dispersed from Alexandria along the whole coast of Syria and Beyrout, and exposed piecemeal to the at tacks of a superior enemy—what, we say, is to become of Sir Robert Stopford ? The rumours of the Admi ralty give us a catalogue of six or seven men of war ut home, who are commissioned, or ready for commission. Mighty well ; but where will Lord Minto find seamen ? What are the grandest men-of-war in our dockyards but torpid masses of wood and copper, without tars to animate and move them? What do our naval arsenals now present ? Not defences against au enemy, but enticements to attack them. What are long ranges of masts and yards, and canvass, heaps of shot, and hues of disemunted cannon, but so many prizes to the first aggressor, not obstacles or dangers in ltis path ? Is it not possible that at this rno meet any three foreign sail of the line might, with the help of a solitary pilot make their way mire ! listed into all our harbours in succession, carry off, without so much as a single broadside, our so-called guardships from Plymouth, Portsmouth, and Sheer ness, load them at their leisure with naval stores, set fire to the slips, the houses and materials for ship building, leave every arsenal a heap of ruins, and steer away for Brest with a broom at the maintop-gallant masthead ?! Yes, such is the condition to which the maritime supremacy of Great Britain has been actually reduced. No effective reinforcement to our single squadron abroad—no dream of a Channel fleet of even ten sail of the line—not one semblance of a manned and armed guardship fit for sea—not so much as one stout frigate ready ; not so much as one armed steamer ready ; a vote for 2,000 seamen at the close of the Session lying inoperative and useless ; a demand for 20,000, and not 500 to be found. Vs as ever a tenth rate maritime power in a state of such utter helplessness and desolation ? Was ever the safety of a mighty realm committed to such rotten keeping ? But we arc not done yet. (From the Morning Advertiser.) We have seen a document of great value as affect ing Mr. Alderman Harmer. It is the speech of Sir James Mackintosh, on bringing up the Report of the Com mittee on the Criminal Code, on July 6, 1819. Sir James Nlackintosli is dead. The fever of faction has long ceased to warp men's opinions as to his character. All men honour him—Whig, Tory, and Radical. One of his most successful disciples was the present Sir Robert Peel, who carried out his views in the amelio rations he effected by his justly celebrated Five Acts. The testimony of Sir James Mackintosh, therefore, must be of great weight with men of all parties. And what was that testimony ? Why, in bringing up this Report he declared that of all the witnesses examined Mr. Harmer, in soundness of views, in knowledge of facts, in ability, and in humanity, surpassed all others, 'Phis eulogium, delivered in the House of Commons, was perhaps the proudest that any witness ever received. We give it very tamely, because we write from memory, but the Times, if it pleases, or the Standard, or the Post, or the Herald know where to find it. Let them read that testimony, and, connecting it with the unblamed and unblanseable conduct of Mr. Alderman Harmer in all the civic offices he has filled, let them, if they have the hardihood to do it, still continue to assert that lie is an unfit man to be the Chief Magistrate of this great city, and that some one else is better able to protect property by detecting those engaged in its plunder. The general opinion, however, is, that the Alderman's election is perfectly safe. The notorious and decided failure of the " declaration," which, by having a majority of the names of the Livery, was to send him back to Ingress Abbey without an election at all, is now certain and palpable. Not one man in twenty of the Livery has signed it, and not one in ten ever will. Politics or personalities, warm though they be, will not blind masses as to facts. People cannot help seeing the reports in the Times of the conduct of Alderman Harmer as a Magistrate, the criHmaertniiie3rnisanlyesosthzeeraltokulds,eormr alnesosreT,lcaigeinst. same as they see that of every other Alderman in the same Paper—nothing appears in those reports to show ask themselves, therefore, the simple t he twill i ;A i h m e o n re i itt Magis trate. p . r e AldermansTs niegy f lN i n 1 o " r, , NV and ha tw differenti l s ly to S lllll ot a li k tl e % h Vt i ! ln tlli encourage is s. gLuoersd crime than he does now ?"
