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 SON. And now for the fable which specially bears, On matters connected with sporting affairs. Two 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 how is your master—l don't know his name ; I met him just now, and I saw from his coat, He had 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), Tbeir shooting -coats rank as the first in their day. 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, Teok notes of the chat, and resolved to be one Of the firmest adherents of MOSES and SON. LIST OF PRICES.

A Mr. Loyd Jones having been voted to the chair, Mr. OWEN addressed a few observations to the remnant of the meeting, declaring that he had come forward not to oppose but to support the League. As an old manufacturer—as a politiczi economist— as an old friend of the working classes, he had no hesitation in saying that almost all the pecuniary difficulties of the country bad arisen from. gold having been made the only legal tender. They had heard a great deal that night about capital and `money; he wished some of the speakers had told them - what they proposed to substitute for gold. In his opinion a currency ought to increase as wealth increased, and diminish as it diminished, and should in itself be un changeable in value.—(A voice—An impossibility.) Gold did none of these things. It did not increase as wealth increased—dimini s h as it diminished ; and it was continually changing in value. It was a great mistake, therefore, to make gold the circulating medium. A future opportunity would arise for dis cussing the question fully. He might at present state that he thought the nation ought to be the sole banking company, and that their notes ought to be secured on all the sources of wealth and property of the empire.—(Hear) Thus without any difficulty their notes would be increased as the wealth of the country increased—diminished as it diminished; they would be unchangeable in value, and they would be secured on the whole property of the British, empire. The meeting then separated. NAVAL INTELLIGENCE. SIR CHARLES NAPIER'S SQUADRON. PORTSMOUTH, OCT. 13.—8 y the arrival of the Re cruit we are enabled to continue our details of the movements of Sir Charles Napier's squadron from the last date—the 29th of September. " Sept. 30.—The Vengeance, 84, Captain Lushing ton, was inspected by Sir Charles this day. She passed:muster well, and after a four hours' visit the Admiral gave her captain and officers great credit for the state of the ship, and the efficiency and good state of discipline of her crew, especially with regard to gunnery. " Oct. I.—The squadron exercised shifting topsail yards. From the time the order was given until the yards were shifted and the topsails at the mast head, the manoeuvre was performed by the respective ships in the following time :—Caledonia, 22 minutes ; Queen, 34 minutes; St. Vincent, 37 minutes; Ven geance, 40 minutes. - " Oct. 2.—The packet arrived to-day from Eng land. From the intelligence she is the bearer of from head-quarters, it is conjectured that the squadron will not be broken up before the middle of November. The Trincomalee, 25, Captain R. L. Warren, and the Amphitrite, 25, Captain S. Eden, also arrived this day from Spithead and placed themselves under the orders of Sir Charles Napier for trial. They are fine-looking ships of their class. a Oct. 3 (Sunday).—No movements. " Oct. 4.—The recruit is ordered to England. The Albion, 90, Captain Fremantle, is expected here (Lisbon) daily from the Mediterranean, to join our squadron, and try her sailing and other qualities with the Queen, the Canopus, and the Vengeance, after which it is expected that the latter will proceed to the Mediterranean. The marines and small-arm men of the whole squadron were to have been landed to day for show and exercise ashore, but the bad state of the weather has prevented the landing. The weather is breaking up : for the last two days we have had incessant rain. " The squadron will proceed to sea again on, Wednesday. " The Sidon steam-frigate,' Captain Henderson, C. 8., will leave for England on the 13th, as ordered. " Lieutenants Hawkey (Vengeance), and Hopkins (Odin), are invalided." The Hermes steam-vessel, Lieutenant Commanding W. H. Bridge (acting), sailed last evening, taking supernumeraries for the eastward, to be paid off. The Recruit, 12, Commander A. Slade, sailed last evening to join the Amphion, 36, Captain W. J. Williams, and cruise for a week, and then return to this port. If this cruise be intended as an experimen tal trial, it is a very unfair one, the Amphion being perfectly clean, while the starboard side of the Re cruit's bottom is thickly covered with a growth of weeds and barnacles nearly four inches in length. The. Vixen steam-sloop, Commander A. P. Ryder, embarked the Duke and Duchess of Palmella and suite, and Mr. Percy Doyle and staff, to-day, and sailed this afternoon for Lisbon. She took 20 second class boys to join Rear-Admiral Sir Charles Napier's squadron. The Blenheim transport, Lieutenant E. Ward, agent, came into the harbour this morning to refit. Captain J. H. Plumridge, of the Cambrian, hoisted his broad pendant (blue at the main), as a Commo dore of the second-class, this morning at daylight. The Birkenhead steam vessel, Commander A. 11, Ingram, was taken into the basin yesterday. WOOLWICH, OCT. 13. —The crew of the Acheron steam- vessel, Lieutenant Commander Dunlap, recently serving in the Tartarus steam-vessel, were paid off to day at Woolwich, and a number of the men have stated their intention of again serving in the Tarta rus, commissioned on Monday last by Lieutenant Sir Godfrey IVebster, Bart., who has the command of the vessel. The Tartarus is refitting, and will soon be ready for service. The Monkey steam-vessel left Woolwich at half past one o'clock for the Commercial Dock, Deptford, in case her services should have been again required to aid in the launch of the Banshee, Holyhead mail steam-packet, built by Mr. Thompson, but the arrangements for the launch were so effectually made to-day that in a few minutes after the signal was given the launch took place with the greatest ease, and the Banshee glided into the water in fine style amidst the enthusiastic and often re peated cheers of the numerous spectators, many of whom had been present during the three days on each of which the launch was expected to take place. The Banshee looks remarkably well on the water, and when launched her draught of water was five feet at the bows. The Monkey steam-vessel took her in tow to Messrs. Seaward's, at Limehouse, to have her boilers put on board, and she will then be taken to Messrs. Penn's establishment, to have her engines of 350 horse-power fitted in their proper places previous to the trial of her capabilities for speed. In addition to being riband bound, which prevented the launch being effected on the first day, the ways appear to have sunk in one place where the ground was soft and raised the other end. The vessel is now fortunately launched and perfectly free from injury in every re spect, and her entire appearance reflects great credit on both her designer and builder. PLYMOUTH, OCT. 12.—Her Majesty's frigate America, 50, Captain Sir Thomas Maitland, was in spected in Plymouth Sound yesterday morning by Port-Admiral Sir John West. The crew were exercised at the guns, and went through . their evolu tions in a creditable manner, having hit the target, which was placed towards Mount Edgecumbe, on almost every trial. In the evening under easy can vass she left the Sound, and entered Barnpool , whence she was towed by a tug steamer into Hamoaze. Last night a fire occurred at the Gun-wharf, which broke out in the carpenters' shop, but was soon extin guished by the Government engines near. Her Majesty's steam-frigate Amphion, Captain Woodford J. Williams, arrived this morning from Portsmouth. Her Majesty's transport steam-vessel Alban, Master- Commander Manser Bradshaw, came in this morning, and went up Hamoaze. Her Majesty's sloop Arab, 16, Commander W. Morris, is outside the harbour. ------,-- - _ SHIPWRECK AT KElSS.—lnformation reached Wick on Thursday morning that a large brig had been driven ashore in the neighbourhood of the old castle of Keiss, a distance of eight miles to the northward of this place. As it was reported that the men were clinging to the wreck, and as there was a strong gale from the E.S.E., accompanied by a tremendous sea, the utmost fears were excited for their safety. On reaching the spot the brig was found lying a small distance to the northward of the old castle, the sea dashing against her with fearful vio lence. A large crowd of p eo p l e had assembled, m an y of them from Wick, to render assistance to the poor fellows who were placed in such imminent danger. Mr. Brem ner, civil engineer, had previously arrived, and had, as usual, been exerting himself to rescue the crew. A rope communication had been effected between the vessel and the shore, and by m eans of a sliding apparatus, similar to that of Manby, preparations were being made to take stating, was accomplished in the most efficient manner. The first who was conveyed to land was an old man, Lowson by name, belonging to Dundee, who had been washed from the rigging, and was so exhausted that the crew had to tie him into the cradle. On being landed ho and th e ot h ers were conveyed to the hospitable abode of Mr. Iverach, where every attention was paid to them all. The poor old man soon after died. The rest of the crew soon recovered their exhaustion. The vessel is the Warrior of Montrose, Captain Mcarns, from Riga to Liverpool, with a cargo of railway sleepers ; and is likely to become a total wreck. It is understood that both ship and cargo are insured.—John o' Groat Journal. ROYAL SAPPERS AND MINERS.—FOrty•Six young men, recruits lately joined at the head-quarters of the Royal Sappers and Miners, left Woolwich on Friday last for Chatham, to acquire a knowledge of fortification and construction of field works; and sixty-two men of the same corps, who had completed their course of instruc tion, left Chatham on the same day for Woolwich, to hold themselves in readiness to embark in the course of the present month for foreign service, Captain Ogle's (the 3d) company being about to proceed to Corfu, to relKtve Captain Chapman's company at that station since January, 1842. Fifty-four men in detachments will also proceed during the present month to Gibraltar, to augment Captain Skyring's (2d) company, and Captain Hutchinson's (11th) company, both doing duty at that station.

ISSOLUTION of PARTNERSHIP of MESSRS. HUNT and VALLEY, the Silk Mercers and Linendrapers of the Edgeware-road. Public sale of their Stock, amounting to 25,0001., to CO NiMENCE on MONDAY NEXT. OCtO - IS. For particulars see following advertisement. THE Public is hereby informed that the Part nership hitherto existing between Messrs. HUNT and WALLET was mutually DISSOLVED on the 20th ultimo, and by virtue of a covenant in deed of Dissolution the whole of the Stock must be converted into Cash immediately. In order to carry out this determination, by disposing of so ex tensive a property, and to insure a speedy settlement of affairs, it has been determined upon to offer the whole of the Stock held under the partnership at from one-half to two-thirds of the cost prices. This stock, selected from the principal depo s of British and Foreign Manufacturers, embraces a magnificent aszemtlage of Shawls, Silks, Lace, Ribbons, Fancy Goods, and every variety of fashionable attire, besides an immense va:ue of every kind of House hold and Family Linen, Drapery, Foreign and Irish Damasks, Blankets, Flannels, Quilts, &c., the principal part of the latter having been at all times kept in the warerooms, will be found quite fresh, and free from the slightest imperfection. It is hardly requisite to state, that it is under no ordinary circum stances that the present sacrifices would be submitted to, the advan tages to be derived by the public have certainly never been excelled, or rarely equalled ; and as the whole of the Stock will be most ad vantageou3ly arranged for inspection throughout the various rooms of the Establishment, and every article legibly marked in plain figures, Ladies will do well to embrace the earliest opportunity of inspecting, if only for the information to be derived, as a guide to making purchases in future. . The superior character of merchandise vended by this establish ment being so generally well known throughout the n etropolis, and so universally notorious for cheapness in the ordinary routine of business, must, with the reduction before stated (viz., from one half to two-thirds of the cost prices), be quite sufficient for the public to form an opinion of the extreme reasonable prices that will be marked upon the goods, and render it quite unnecessary to make any quotations, as they could convey but A very imperfect idea of the bargains which may be expected. The iale will commence on MONDAY MORNING NEXT, at Ten o'clock, and will be continued each day until Seven o'clock in the evening. 51, 62%, 53, EDGWARE ROAD.

Average Amount of Insurances during the last Ten Years, upwards of HALF A MILLION ANNUALLY. . . Capital of the Society, arising from the Accumulation of the Premiums, upwards of ONE MILLION EIGHT HUNDRED and FORTY THOUSAND POUNDS. Owing to the great amount of business done by this Society, to the economy with which its affairs are conducted, to the careful selec tion of the lives, to the equity of the principles upon which it is based, to the facilities afforded in the settlement of claims, and to other cir cumstances peculiar to itself, the members are entitled to look for the greatest benefits which such an Institution can bestow, and it is confidently believed that hitherto their expectations have not been disappointed. The declaration of Additions made at last period of Investiga tion, 31st December, 1845, showed that to the eldest Policies their had been added, as a Bonus, more than 80 per cent. ott the original Insurance, and to the later Policies in a corresponding ratio ; and this independently of the current additions. In the event of one of th• members, insured before the year 1820, dying in the year 1852, after payment of the Premium of that year, there would be paid 2061. ss. 6d. for each 1001. insured : the Bonus ♦ddition thus being greater than the original Insurance. N.B. The Books of this society are annually closed on the 31st December. All Policies passed before 31st December next, in the event of their continuing in force for Jive years, will share in the Profits of the current year. JOIIN MACKENZIE, Manager. WM.

BY SAMUEL LA'MEET, M.D., 3, BEDFORD-STREET, BEDFORD•SQUIEB, LONDON, Doctor of Medicine, Matriculated Member of the University of Edin burgh, Licentiate of Apothecaries' Hall, London, Honorary Member of the London Hospital Medical Society, &c. Marriage requires the fulfilment of several conditions, in order that it may be really the cause of mutual happiness. Could the veil, which covers the origin of domestic wretchedness, be raised, and its true source in every instance disclosed, in hew many could it be traced to physical disqualifications and their attendant disap pointments. Excesses are always injurious; the gift, which when used in moderation is fraught with advantage, becomes, when abused, the prolific source of mischief, and of greater or less injury to the cenetitutional 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 requires the closest attention and study, for what subject • can be of more 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 fear of ap plying to a qualified physician for relief. Shame and the dread so frequently, but erroneously entertained that these complaints are beyond the reach of art, alike restrict him and prevent his seeking for assistance where Mime 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 max who can show by his posse-lion of the requisite legal qualifications that he is entitled to esteem and respect in his profes sional pursuits, the utmost confidence should be extended. Dr. LA'MERT 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.

TIIIINDER STORM IN ALTEINCHAM.-011 Friday night last, about nine o'clock P.M., this neighbourhood was visited by a storm, accompanied with several peals L of thunder, Paper. nder,— nand most awfully vivid lightning. Ma denunciated. Whether that the Hon. Gentleman was ignorant of the facts, or perfectly aware of them, he had placed himself on the horns of a dilemma, from which it would be difficult for him to remove himself. To show the absurdity of our present position as re garded the currency he would take a few extracts from the celebrated work of Alison, being a history of the financial condition of Europe. It would be found there that 20,000,000 of people required on an average 40,000,0001. of currency to carry on the operations of the commerce of the country. At pre sent we had 30,000,000 of population, who upon the above calculation would require 60,000,0001. of cur rency. But instead of this we had 30,000,000 of people, with only 40,000,0001. of circulation ; whereas it ought to be 60,000,0001., according to the population laid down, to enable the people to carry on efficiently the commerce of the country at the present moment. In the year 1818 the circulation was 48,000,0001. to 42,000,0001. of export trade. In the year 1844 it was only 28,000,0001. circulation to our export of 130,000,0001. Now, if there were any truth in these calculations, and they knew that they were taken from the most authentic documents, the disparity made it perfectly ridiculous to argue upon it. Since they had bad the pleasure of meeting on the previous occasion, the League had had a greater degree of encouragement to proceed in their labours. The far greater portion of the public press were in favour of an alteration of the present system. Two or three journals might probably be against them; but he thought that the " leading journal" was only watching for a favourable opportunity to come round to their views. An article was lately published in that journal, possessing, certainly, a considerable amount of heavy wit, but including a vast amount of ridicule, without any positive ar • gument ;—and the idea immediately struck him that the Times putting forth all its badinage showed that their case must be bad. He remembered the cautious notices which appeared in that journal of the first meetings of the Anti-C o r n -l aw League.— (Hear.) He knew how they had treated the first movements of almost every meeting in a popular cause.—(Hear.) He believed, however, that to sup portinoo n s t i h s e t e n c t r t s smteunscty ultimately m t h a a t t e y j o t u u r r n n a I r , o w u t d h oauntd beingi - port the principles of the Anti-Gold-law League. And why ? Because he found that the Times newspaper and Sir Robort Peel might be taken as an index to society, inasmuch as there would not be any argu ment which they would advance, in respect to which they would not at a subsequent period take up an opinion a t first a d d i v a o m o e a t t r e i d c . a y oppositeeither t e o r t t hhae tonone which or tthhee yother declared themselves to be of such and such an opinion he always prepared himself to find them advocating a contrary opinion afterwards. If the Times journal were in favour of the movement of this League, he should despair of having their support for any length of time; but as they were against them, he did not despair of their aid hereafter. For his own part he could not help feeling that if the present monetary system was not altered, the most terrible consequences might be expected. The Bills which had been passed in the years 1819 and 1844 were based on injustice. If the monetary sys tem were not altered, our aristocracy would become as nought, the landed gentry would be reduced, and with their downfal must be expected the pauperisa• tion of the nation. They knew that already many of the largest landed proprietors—that many noblemen had been obliged to flee the country ; and that their property and estates were in the power of the bul lionists of the country. It might be right it should be so in many cases, where the parties had disgraced their position, and had not carried the great consti tutional principle of supporting those who lived on their estates. It was right it should go forth to the world that such men were incapable of taking care of themselves. He did not wish to say anything against the bullionists, because, if under legal sanc tion, and under a legalised system, they could in crease 1,0001. to 10,0004, no man could wonder at their doing so. All men would act in the same way be believed. These convulsions came at a period when the commercial world was most prosperous. The prosperity of the country, he maintained, depended on an abundant and unfluctuating currency. Mr. JONATHAN Dinscax next addressed the meet ing at great length. He commenced by reiterating the objects which the League had in view. One of the greatest illusions which prevailed in the country was constantly propagated by a certain portion of the public press, in the confusion which they fell into be tween the terms money and currency. They of the League defined currency as not including the legal tender, and they defined money to be the legal tender. He who manufactured money manufactured the legal tender. He, on the part of the League, contended that the only authority to issue the legal tender, or to make money, was vested in the Crown, with the sanc tion and .advice of Parliament ; the nation through her representatives being parties to the legal tender of the country ; and they considered that neither the Parliament, nor the Parliament and the Queen united, should be permitted to issue money at her Majesty's caprice and discretion, but that a li m it s h ou ld b e pu t tot hat issue, and it appeared to them that the legalised amount of the legal tender should consist of Exchequer notes of the value of 11. and upwards ; that such notes should be issued only with the consent of Parliament in discharge of the current obligations of the State, to an amount not exceeding, in the course of the year, the annual taxation of the country which the Crown de mands of the people. They held it as a constitutional principle that the Queen had no right to demand taxes from her subjects in any other form. That was the basis of taxation. The Sovereign had the right to demand a portion of the produce of the labour of the country, which was alw a ys available to the sub jects, and which, without inconvenience, they could furnish. Such was the ancient practice until the time of Henry I.; but when for his own conveni ence he changed the mode of taxation, he did not increase the pressure by calling upon his subjects to provide a foreign metal as a circulating medium. He issued his own money by the granting of what were called " Exchequer-bill tallies ;" and these tallies for a period of six centuries continued to be the sole instrument by which taxes were paid ; and down to the year 1694, when the Bank of Eng land was established, England had obtained most of her vast colonial empire, or at least the founda tion of that empire was laid, as well as of the present constitution. If, then, a small kingdom could do all this without an ounce of gold, how was it that, in the present day, when this empire had obtained such a magnitude that the sun never sets upon the dominions of our Sovereign—how was it that now, in the glorious maturity of strength, this country was unable to proceed with a legal tender issued by the Crown— that that tender should be, as it were valueless ? Here (producing an old Exchequer tally)—here was one of the instruments by which England rose to greatness. There was one of the Exchequer tallies, which had been used by -our ancestors for six centuries ! It was only a piece of maple wood. The notches repre sented different sums. The tally was used to pay the soldiers or the judges. The counterpart was kept in the Exchequer, and those who held these tallies were acquitted of taxation ; they were used as a discharge to the sheriff, in the case of persons in custody for debt. The speaker contended that it was necessary to adopt a circulating medium which was capable of expansion. They knew that, as the population increased, streets were.widened and new thoroughfares made, and the same principle applied to the currency. Who but Sir Robert Peel would think of selecting the rarest of metals in the world as the basis of the means of the currency ? Sir Ro bert Peel told them he had restored the standard of Queen Elizabeth ; but he had done no such thing. But what would they think of reducing the roads in the country to what they were in the time of Queen Elizabeth, when Adam Smith told them that the roads might be assimilated to money, inasmuch as by the facilities of communication commerce was in creased ? As to the currency , the views of the League had been misunderstood by the Economist, a weekly paper,',who accused them of limiting themselves to taxation money. They were not . boi ; ind to take n Rothschild's acceptance or Mr. Bang s acceptance for 101., but they were bound to take money because it was a legal tender. All the League said was that if public opinion should incline to demand that private banks should give security in lands or in con sols, and that these notes, to certify their genuine ness, should bear a stamp, they (the League) had no objection to that ; but their object was con fined to obtaining the lega l tender, which it was desirable should be limited is amount to that of the annual taxation of the country, so that there could never be an excess of issue. He contended that at the close of the war the pro perty classes ought to have redeem ed th e National Debt—they ought to have adopted the continuance of the property-tax, which yielded, at ten per cent., 14,000,0001. of money. but, instead of doing so, their first act was to abolish it under the plea that it was only a war tax. Mr. Duncan then proceeded, at great length, to refer to the effect which, to his mind, had been produced by the restriction acts ; and, in illustration of his arguments, read an immense mass of statistics having reference to the operations of the Bank of England, showing th a t M r. H usk i sson ' s charge against the Bank of England of over-issues was unfounded, inasmuch as they had never equalled, by an immense per ce n t age , th e amount of Gsisernl [PRICE SD. ment securities lodged in their hands, The transac tions ranged from 1791 to 1797 in respect to the un funded debt, which was then thirteen millions, the average amount of the Bank circulation being in the proportion of 84 per cent. only. A variety of other periods were quoted with the same object. Then came the particulars taken at various dates of in creased taxation, and the amount of bank-notes in circulation, &c. The remainder of the speech was a general recapitulation of what had been stated at the former meeting. Mr. BELL next addressed the meeting. He denied that it was the intention of the Anti-Gold-law League to force upon the people of this country an incon vertible currency. It might be issued by the Crown, and might be receivable in payment of taxes. What they wished was a system of currency which would enable persons who had property to convert it, if they so desired, into the money of the realm. They had been told that the present distress had arisen from improvident speculation, and from parties having traded not on capital but on credit. He had always understood that the object of the Bank Charter Act of Sir R. Peel was to prevent, as far as legislation could, improvident speculation. If that were so, how happened it that the supporters of the policy of Sir Robert Peel came forward and told them that im provident speculation was the cause of the present distress ? When it was asserted that our merchants had traded on credit and not on capital, they had a right to demand a definition of those terms. If the definition which had been given of capital by Sir R. Peel was sound—if gold alone was to be considered as capital, then the whole commercial operations of Great Britain would have to be restricted to some 60,000,0001.—the amount of gold coin in the country. Without credit it was impossible for any state to rise above barbarism. If they were to act in the spirit of the legislation of Sir R. Peel, and say that no man should engaged in trade unless he possessed capital sufficient to meet actual and prospective claims, the whole business of society would come to a stand-still. —(Hear, hear.) He had a right to ask those who denied that houses, and land, and manufactures, were capital, by virtue of what influence it was that gold was to be regarded as the only capital of the country? —(Hear, hear.) He could tell those who waged war against credit, that other kinds of property were as much to be considered capital as gold, and that they must consent to extend the privilege of legal tender which at present pertained to that commodity.— (Hear, hear). It had been said that the houses which had failed were rotten houses—that was a harsh term to use on such an occasion. —(Hear, hear.) No later than May last Sir R. Peel asked Mr. New degate whether he wished, by repealing the Bank Charter Act of 1844, to bring back the distresses of 1835 and 1839—thus proving that Sir R. Peel thought that the Bank Charter Act would prevent the recurrence of such distresses, and confirming the guarantee which he had formerly given to that effect. If they were to assume that every com mercial establishment was rotten that could not meet its engagements at the Mint price of gold, then indeed they might say that all their commercial establishments were rotten.—(Hear, hear.) He denied that the League had any desire to rob creditors; their desire was to compel creditors, in common with all other classes, to bear their fair share of the burden of national taxation.—(Hear, hear.) They contended that the producers throughout Great Britain were entitled to remunerating prices, and that it was impossible for the industrious classes—so long as Sir Robert Peel's Act existed—to enjoy re munerating prices. Variations had taken place in the standard price of gold. In the reign of Elizabeth it was 21. 13s. 11d. an ounce ; in the reign of Charles 11. 31. 14s. 2d., and before the close of the seventeenth century it was 31. 17s. 100. an ounce. If, then, gold was received at one period in payment of debts and taxes, at the rate of 21. 15s. lid. an ounce, and at another period at the rate of 31. 17s. 100. an ounce, why, he asked. should not an ounce ofgold be allowed to rise, relatively to taxation, to any amount the industrial necessities of the country might require ? The Chancellor of the Exchequer told the Newcastle deputation that they had confounded circulation with capital. It was Sir Robert Peel and those who acted with him who had committed that mistake; for they bad assumed that promissory notes were capital. Mr. Tooke in his able work had pointed out the error, and had shown how improvident speculations might be made without the use of a single bank note—by the transfer of capital alone. They had been told that railway speculation and the potato rot were the principal causes of the distress. A former speaker had shown that had it nut been for railroad specula tion millions would at the present moment have been in the greatest distress, and would have been sup ported, in all probability, by means of the intolerable poor-rate.—(Hear.) With regard to the failure of the potato crop, the loss had been estimated at 20,000,0001. But how could they connect the loss of commercial houses with that failure. Twelve months ago Consols were 96. Within the last few days they had been as low as 83. The loss to the fundholders amounted to 80,000,0001. or 100,000,0001., and he could not see how that could be attributed to the failure of the potato crop, the loss arising from which amounted to only 20,000,000/.—(Hear.) It 1 was under such circumstances as these that the Chancellor of the Exchequer had met the deputations on the subject. The fact was Sir C. Wood was an admirable hoper—he could hope against hope.— (Hear, hear.) In May or September, his answer would have been " the worst is past." If they were to go to him to-morrow, his answer would be the same, and if in the middle of December, he would no doubt tell them, or any deputation from the City, that they were all labouring under a delusion. In- I deed, his conduct reminded him of a story he had read in a Yankee newspaper. According to that story, when Noah was about to construct the ark, he stood greatly in need of labour, and applied to an antediluvian giant, his neighbour, for assistance, promising him a passage in the ark for his trouble. The giant laughed at Noah, and refused. After wards, when sailing in the ark, Noah saw his old friend on one of the highest peaks of Ararat, and said to him, " Are you not sorry you did not accept my offer ?"—(Hear.) The antediluvian—not to be driven out of his opinion —answered " No ; get along with your old rotten ark. I don't think, after all, there's going to be much of a shower"— (Laughter.) The antediluvian held to his opinion, and suffered for it.—(Hear.) Sir C. Wood holds to his opinion, but it is the industrious classes who suffer.—(Hear.) He would conclude by denying that the League confounded circulation with capital. They denied that their present distresses were caused by the potato rot and railroad speculation. They denied that they had any desire to rob the creditor or to palm on the country inconvertible currency. They desired to see a system of currency established under which property might be converted into money, and money into property, and under which, above all things, a fair day's work might be converted in to a fair da y's wages.—(Cheers.) The CHAIRMAN intimated that with reference to future proceedings it had been thought advisable that all questions should be given in writing with the view of their being considered on some succceeding evening. This would introduce harmony into their discussions, and avoid much confusion. The busi ness of the meeting might now terminate, but there was a gentleman present whom they might not see again, and who wished shortly to address the meeting. The gentleman (Mr. J. Wood) was an eminent agriculturist in Sussex, and he hoped they would listen to him. Mr. Noon then addressed the meeting. He felt that if some alteration was not made in the money laws, food, instead of being cheap as promised by Sir Robert Peel, would become dear, for so long as they restricted the supply of money they would never be able to keep down the price of food. In the present year they had witnessed food commanding all other commodities. It would always command whatever money there might be in the country.—(Hear, hear.) If they obtained their supplies of food from abroad instead of from the labour of their own countrymen, the diminution in the wealth of the country would be great. The investment of capital in cultivating the soil would cease to be profitable, land would be thrown out of cultivation, and labourers would be re duced to the condition of paupers. No doubt it was the opinion of some that all the land might be thrown out of cultivation and that the labourers might be employed in some other way than in the cultivation of it.—(Hear, hear.) He had heard such an • opinion stated, but he confessed he could not understand how it could be carried out. - --(Laughter.) lie felt that if there was an issue of money to the extent proposed by the League there would be a pr os p ec t o f th e i r thriving. if the contrary ' took place, he feared the distress that would ensue in the rural districts would be enormous. The CHAIRMAN hoped it would not go forth that the League w ere oppose d to the cultivation of the soil. One of the principal grounds upon which they advocated their system of currency was that it would enable agriculturists to cultivate the soil to its fullest extent. They were not partial free-traders. They felt that free trade in food without free trade in gold would ruin the country. After an appeal to the meeting to come forward with pecuniary . support to the League, the Chairman declared the business of the meeting at an end, and vacated the chair. A call was got up for Mr. It. Owen, who had been THE NATIONAL ANTI-GOLD-LAW LEAGUE. A. public meeting, convened by the committee of the above society, was held last night, at the Crown and Anchor Tavern. The room was crowded to ex cess. The proceedings were opened, at a few minutes after seven o'clock, by F. Bennoch, Esq., the chair man, and amongst those who were seated at the table were Messrs. A. Spottiawoode, John Taylor, Jonathan Duncan, John Bell, James Wood (of Cuckfield), Frederick Collin, Edwards, M.P. for Youghal. and Anstey, Esq., The CHAIRMAN, in opening the proceedings of the evening, said that this was the first " Proper" meeting of the Anti- Gold-law League since its formation. The League, he trusted, would exist until that terrible system which they had proclaimed war against was abolished ; that done—that great object achieved, they would immediately dissolve themselves. It would depend upon the energy of the people of this country, who had so much at stake, as to how long this agitation should continue.—(Cheers.) The League were determined not to discontinue their efforts to benefit their country. Since they had last met to gether the circumstances of the country had,been in no way improved ; on the contrary, the catalogue of commercial distresses had been increased by tremen dous failures in the metropolis and elsewhere. During the short period of a fortnight or more an amount of three or four millions had been added to the terrible list of commercial failures. When they took into consideration the interests which were involved in that large amount alone, he could not but think that the consequences must be terrible to all, but more especially to the middling and the labouring and the industrial classes of the community, because upon them at last this distress weighed most heavily. He knew that no country stood generally in a more prosperous condition than our own. He knew that the labouring classes were, to a large extent, occu pied—our manufacturers had orders, and the general aspect of the country was favourable — and hence there were many who might reasonably think to themselves—what is there to pre vent our commercial prosperity ? The reason was simply this—because bills of exchange and other in struments which were in use for the purpose of car rying on the commerce of the country were found to be undiscountable in the London market and else where. And why? Because it was said there was a want of gold—others said there was a want of confi dence. If so why was this ?—because there was a want of gold. Then why, he asked, should we base the whole commercial prosperity of this country on some few millions of gold? There were some who said that gold was the only stable thing on which to base the regulation of our monetary system. Was all the eight hundred millions of debt gold? Was the produce of the land gold ? 'Where ,the goods which were warehoused gold ? Why, they were as much gold as the few millions which were in circulation in this country. Then why should they depend upon the value of gold ? It was to break down this evil that the Anti-Gold-law League had associated themselves together. Under the influence of the present system, though our means of commercial accommodation were equally abundant, still the means of carrying out commercial operations, were clogged at a time when the channels ought to be filled with the wealth of a commercial empire. Un less they had a sufficient, and a steady and a secure circulating medium, it was impossible for the com mercial body to be in health. They knew that in the body physical if there was an accumulation of bile congestion followed, and the system became dis ordered, though there might be plenty of blood to carry on the operations of the system; but it was because congestion arose that deadly consequences followed. Therefore he contended that they ought to have a medium which did not create the disposition to be hoarded or secreted. But gold had this charac ter. Many people thought that if they hoarded gold they must be free from danger. If that gold was not circulated it could not be advantageous to the country. When a panic arose it was not that the distress arose from a want of pro perty, but from the want of a healthy circulating me dium. It was to allow gold to take its natural position amongst other commodities that the Anti- Gold- law League requested that certain laws should be repealed, and that gold might be bought and sold. Where a fixed value was given to the metal, it made it the only thing to take out of the country at the lowest price of production. Various causes, however, were given for the existence of the present distress. Some parties declared it arose from over-production, and that the evil would ultimately do us good—that speculation would be retarded—but those gentlemen forgot that when these matters were disturbed the labouring classes were thrown out of employ. Some there were who contended that we were too productive —that the people in England were too industrious, and that the people should become idlers—that the ma nufacturers should stop their mills—and last of all, some men proposed that the works on railways should be suspended. They would throw, say 1,000,000 of men —1,000,000 of busy bees on the parish, and say, " Oh, we will feed you, but you must contribute nothing in the shape of labour —you must remain idle." But surely it was the duty of the State to provide the means of work and employment, if these men were healthy and would work. What absurdity, then, it was to say that industry was the cause of the present dis tress at this time, when millions of our fellow-coun trymen were half fed. The idea of using too much corn for food was too absurd. Then what did these gentlemen say in the case of the people of Ireland ? There they said that the people did not work enough —that they were net industrious—that they were too much given to attend monster meetings—but that if they would work they (these Englishmen) would as sist them. So, in the case of Ireland, they attri buted the prevailing distress to the idle habits of the people whilst, in England, they attributed the pressure on the commercial world to over-produc tion, and to the over-industrial efforts of those who were engaged in commerce. These were the feel ings of persons who did not probe the thing to the bottom. When they had a large amount of money in the Bank coffers, there was a great inducement to those who discounted to give every facility for the use of money. The consequence was, that as soon as the Bank-notes were out there was a considerable amount of gold required for the wages of persons engaged on ra ilways, where a cer tain amount o f go ld was reuired, too, in the neigh bourhood, and w h ere parties were going on carrying out their object legitimately. At that very moment a check was put on their proceedings, as if to prevent due facility being given to carry out legitimate ob jects. The fact was, that under the present law our rulers managed to manufacture a panic, from which the country now suffered, and were likely to suffer. He regretted to find that the mercantile interest were apathetic on this vital subject ; but from the only op portunities which had been allowed him to judge, from I conversations which he had had with mercantile men, from scores of letters which he had received from Liverpool, he must say he found no want of sympathy I or interest. He knew that at Liverpool it had been intended to call a meeting, but that four or five of the parties subsequently determined to postpone such a proceeding, lest the agitation of the question at that moment might lead many to suppose that they were in desperate circumstances in respect to their own engagements. This was nu fiction, because he had heard the fact stated by one of the gentlemen themselves. He thought, howe ver , that the time was come when all men of capacity ought to fling delicacy to the winds, and declare that the present monetary system was one under which this country could not exist as a commercial nation. The system was one which must lead to the general pauperisation of the people. Every movement downwards. at was made under that system was a movement d?wnwards. Whether he addressed himself to the agriculturist, to the mercan tile man, or to the working man, he must say that the question was one which they Were bound to support. did At the same time he _ not mean t o sa y th a t a ll the propositions enunciated bythe Anti-Gold-law that League were perfect , or they might not require or admit of alteration ; but he could say, it was for those whom he addressed to come forward to show how the exis tin g s y stem, ought to be mo dified or instantly repealed. What said some of their excellent friends, who were their rulers in the Government ? Why, Sir Charles Wood, the Chan cellor of the Exchequer, declared that there was no deficiency of the currency; that the solvent man found no difficulty in obtaining discounts. Now he (Mr. Bennoch) knew that on the very day that Sir Charles Wood made that statement, the most un mistakeable paper—the paper of Brown, Shipley, and of oth ers o f equa l re and Co., of Liverp ool, spectability, there and elsewhere, had been refused to be discounted. But under what circumstances ? Why, upon this ground—the party who was applied to declared the paper to be excellent, to be un doubted in its character; but he added, "I have not the money to discount it." Sir Charles Wood statement in this matter showed either that he was ignorant of the real state of affairs, or that he was aware of the facts. If he were igno rant of the state (f affairs, he was to be pitied, and he had no business to hold his position as Chancellor If he were aware of the fact, of the Exchequer. ' then he must say his argument was flippant, heartless, oppressive. and most un j ust.
