SIR;--I have just had my attention galled to a long hr_ ter which appears in your color:211s, containing a most gross and untrue statement concernfxig a most revealable individual, Mr. Frederick Fisher, of Doncaster ; and as you have given publication to that 1 ttter, I trust yeti will s as an act of justice, also publish this letter. i I most positively deny, on the part , if Mr. Fisher, that he , ever agreed et. contemplated to b ecca le Mr. Hammond's I partner, and the allegation that he did is, I believe, a most wicked assertion. Mr. Hammond in his - letter says that an action was commenced on the part of Ms. Fisher, and that he, Mr. Hammond, by the advice of his solicitor, suffered Mr. Fisher to take judgment ; bat, Sir, I, as the attorney 1 fer Mr. Fisher, say that Mr. Fisher was nax suffered to take judgment until the most improper attempts ha iheeu resorted to to procure delay, until a rule for a special jury was ob tained, and until after the delays thereby sus ight had been defeated, by means of en application to discharge the rule fora special jury, on the ground that it hod bten ob tained solely for delay, which was opposed in rn sin by sumacs of affidavits setting up the pretended partnership as ae, fence. Subsequently, after that attempt to procure delay had proved abortive, then, aid not till then. dirt tke re spectable solicitor of the Committee of the Drum lane company ofproprietors interfere br Mr. Hammond, and then the pretended defences were abandoned, and judgment with immediate execution was giv,en to Mr. Fisher. Having, obtained that judgment, I delayed, on Mr. Fisher's part, issuing execution, so long as 1 could feel justified in doing so, relying on promises made by or on Mr. Hatornond'spart, which were disregarded and broken by that individual, and in the result bankruptcy has been resorted to bra Ur. Hammond, in order to defeat, I believe, ineffectuallV, the just rights of a creditor whose only fault has been, /18 . 1 b t _ lieve, too much faith in, and too great a proneness to rely on the speculations and integrity of Mr. Haransond. I am, Sir, yours obediently, ANDREW VAN SAISTIAU, 17, Old Jewry, March 2,1840. P. S. Mr. Fisher's advances to or for Mr. Ritetra or d amount to the sum of 2,800/ , or thereaboote. [On receiving a letter from Mr. Van Sandau yesterday, on the subject, we believed it to be a copy of the above, which we took from another paper, and gave it for eompo. salon. On reading the manuscript letter, however, we , find that it is differently worded ; but .as the pr.:wain: letter applies directly to that of Mr. Hammond, and peiata out the statements of which Mr. Fisher compiling, it will serve the same purpose.l JOHN THOROGOOD has been confined in the Common Gaol of Chelmsford sines the 16th ef January, 1839, for net paying a Church -rate of ss. 6d. In consequence of his long confinement, his business has re ceived cc much injury, that his friends propose a public sub scription, for the purpose of saving his affairs from utter ruin. and as a testimony to him and to the country that they sympa thize in his sufferings, and honour tho principle of religious liberty, which is violated in his person.

Messrs. S. and B. SOLOMONS, Opticians and Atiricts, during a Professional experience of thirty years, have bad ample °worm nities of verifying that the Organs of S•ght and Hearing are sym pathetically related to each other in such a peculiar manner, that when the farmer becomes imperfect, the sense of hearing becomes rapidly dull—this fact is admitted by Scientific Authorities, and tnust be observable by many thousands of individuals thus circum stanced—which is deserving the Public's most serious attention. The Messrs. Solomons, with a view to remedy such an affection, and after they have devoted their whole lives to this interesting branch of science, have succeeded in effecting, for Imperfect Vision, a most scientific improvement in a Transparency for Spectacles, and a Pre ventive and Cure for Deafness; they have invented an Operative Voice Conductor,upon a very small construction, not percertible ; it requires no holding, and the individual immediately becomes one of the party in the general conversation. By these important disco veries not only is defective Vision brought to n dive, but the sense of Hearing restored to its original acuteness ; those lenses are so e•nstructed and adapted to weak and imperfect eyesight, upon such scientific principles, combined with the long extensive experience of the Messrs. Solomons, that they will be found to effect an extent of relief which will far exceed their utmost and most san guine expectations. On placing those lenses before imperfect Vision, either by day or candle ligh•, every object becomes clear and dis tinct, and the most minute particle seen with exact distinctness. The Messrs. Solomons have in their possession, WITHOUT ONE EXCEPTION, Spectacles and Ear Instruments of every kind, which t?riare offered to the Public by other individuals, to print out the su ority of their improvements over all others.

MEDICAL SCIENCE, an IMPOSITION en the PEOPLE. I, JAMES MORISON, t'a Hvgeist, hereby declare to the world that Medicrl Science (as Doctors for their selfish in terest have constituted it), is a gross imposition on the public. Is there no power on earth capable of showing up the p re _ fissional murderous practice of the Doctors, not even surpassed by the Druidical human sacrifices of our forefathers? Read the Hospital cases, and satisfy yourselves of the infamous treatment which is Aminn on in those abodes of death (the Hospitals), from day to day, being nothing less than a continued series of aitless experiments on the poor, to clo k the art of medicine with mystery, which should and was intended to be understood by all persons.

Greenock—Greenock Bank. Aberdeen—Town and County Bank. Arbroath—Arbroath Banking Company. Dumfries—Southern Bank of Scotland. Ayr—Ayrshire Banking Company. The object of the Company is for the transaction of all Banking business at SYDNEY, LAUNCESTON, ADE LAIDE, PORT PHILIP, and such other places as the Di rectors may deem advisable ; and it is intended to apply, as far as possible, the system which has proved so successful in Scot land. The extraordinary progress which the Australasian Colonies have made within the last few years, the continued flow of emi gration towards them, together with the high value of money there, call for an increased number of establishments of this de scription, and the prosperous condition of the Banks already in operation is a sufficient guarantee that under prudent manage ment this Investment must prove a most profitable and secure one to the Shareholders, as high rates of interest are obtained with perfect security in a country where, from well ascertained data, Capital is improving at rates varying from 10 to 75 per sent. per annum. The following Extract from the Official Share List of February 4th, 1840, shows the present value of Stock is Two of the Australasian Banks formed in London : Original Share Paid up. Present Price.

Henry Carmichael's Pamphlet on New South Wales, wherein he observes—" There are at present in Sydney three Joint Stock Banking Companies in operation, with a paid-up capital of abaut 80,0001. each ; which divide a profit z,nnually of from 59 to 25 per cent. His Excellency Sir James Stirling also, in his recent work on Western Australia, says, in allusion to the Western Bank of Australia, " The second half-year left a clear profit over the expenditure of 14 and a half per cent, which, after settire , aside one-fifth as an accumulating fund, according to an existing rule, enabled the Directors to declare a dividend of 11 and a half per cent. on the paid-up capital; at the close of the year no dishonoured bill remaining on hand, nor had the Solicitor of the Bank to oommence a single suit for the recovery of a debt due to it." The Directors have for some time been making arrangements for immediately carrying into effect the objects of the Com pany; and in order to advance the influence of the Bank in the Colonies, they have reserved a portion of the shares for distri bution there. As the principal part of the business must necessarily be car ried on in the Colonies, it has been thought inexpedient to have a numerous Board of Directors in London : it has there fore been determined that the number shall not at any time exceed ten ; but to secure the prudent administration of the affairs of the Bank, a complete system of superintendence is now being organized by the Directors for the Establishments in the Colonies. A sufficient capital has already been subscribed to enable the Directors to commence business immediately. They have ' therefore resolved, in order to avoid the inconvenience which has been found to arise in other undertakings from an unre stricted application of shares, and to induce only those to apply who wish to become bona fide proprietors, not to entertain any application unless made in the printed forms provided by them for that purpose, and accompanied by a payment of 2/. upon each share applied for, the Directors reserving to themselves, at the time of appropriation, the right . to reject or comply with such application, either in whole or in part, the money to be returned if the application be rejected, and to be placed to the credit of the party in respect of the shares allotted to him if accepted. For tke guidance of those who may wish to become proprie tors, it may be mentioned, that it is not in contemplation to call up snore than 101. per share for the neat twelve months. The Directors have postponed filling up the London Board to the full number of ten, m order to give them the opportunity of selecting influential proprietors, whose assistance and co operation they may think it advisable to secure for the interests of the concern; power is reserved to them for that purpose, and they are also authorized to complete all other arrangements necessary for putting the Company into immediate operation. Application for shares, in accordance with the printed form, to be made to Messrs. Boyd, 4, New Bank Buildings, Lothbury, London MONEY MARKET and CITY NEWS (TUESDAY EVININII.) TIMES.—By the advices from Hamburg the price of gold is 429 per mark, which, at the English Mint price of 31. 17s. 10id. the ounce for standard gold, gives an exchange of 13. 7, and the exchange at Ham burg on London at short being 13. 7, it follows that gold is of the same value at Hamburg as in London. The premium on gold at Paris is 7 per mills, which, at the English Mint price of 3/. 17s. lOid. the ounce for standard gold, gives an exchange 2.5. 321, and the exchange at Paris on London at short being 25. 30, it follows that gold is 0.10 per cent. dearer at Paris than in London. As so large an amount of British capital is vested in Dutch stock the prospect of the division of the debt between Holland and Belgium is regarded with increasing interest, and, as no specific facts are brought forward, the capitalists have indulged in forming theories. Some assert, and not without considerable reason on their side, that Holland would have no right to get rid of her own liability, and bring forward another kingdom as the responsible party, without some volun tary act of transfer on the part of the creditors, even though the separation is the act of the Five great Powers, and consider that that would be a monstrous principle according to which a debtor should nominate to his creditor what security he should hold. These are of opinion that the only feasible manner of coming to an arrangement at once equitable to Belgium and the creditors would be for Holland still to remain the responsible party for the whole dividends, and Belgium as the additional guarantee. Others view the matter in a different light, and, basing their argument on the list of prices, rather than no tions of equity, contend that a division of the stock into Dutch and Belgian would be particularly advan tageous to those creditors of Holland who would have to take Belgian Securities, inasmuch as Belgian Stock worth in the market about 2 per cent. more than Dutch. These are again met, not only with the ob vious truth that a diminution in the one stock and an increase in the other might cause the relation between them to be very different from the present, but also with the fact that Belgian dividends are payable in London, while the Dutch are paid in Holland ; so that the creditor of the former Government always receives .5 per cent., while the creditor of the latter, it has been invariably found, is prevented from receiving so high a rate by the circumstance of the exchange being against London. Now, though the holders of the present Belgian Stock enjoy this privilege, it is very improbable that a new stock would also be payable in London, and that the Belgian Government would voluntarily forego the profits of an advantageous exchange, and hence it is argued that this privilege being the sole cause of the high price of the present Belgian Stock, any reference to the price -list to determine the value of a newly created stock, without such a privilege, must he futile. Whatever the arrangement may be, it cannot be long, withheld, as every other matter between the two Go vernments is adjusted. UN.—Colonial Markets closed firmly this after noon, and a good business was done in Sugar and Coffee, at fully previous rates. Tea was not brisk, but did not decline in price. The :Foreign Exchanges were without any marked alteration. Bills on Paris and Hamburgh were taken at quotations showing rather an upward tendency, the advices by the Mail of to-lay bringing an improvement at the latter place in the rate on London. Paris was 25 GO . ; Hambu rg b, 13 9 i to and Amst er d am , 12_1 Tiie English Stock Market was flit throughout the day. Consols closed at 90i for money, and 91i for time. The New Three and a-Half per Cents. rallied to 99. This afternoon the speculative transactions in Spanish Bonds were less animated than in the morning, and the Active Stock receded to 29a, and the Passive to 7i. Portuguese New Five per Cents, brought 844 ; Co lumbian 26 ; and Dutch Five per Cents. 1014 to Mi. The Railway Shares were steady, but only one or two bargains were effected. ACCIDENT ON THE GREAT WESTERN RAILWAY.---At an early hour yesterday morning. just by the Wharncliffe viaduct, a collision took place, by which the engine was thrown o f th e li ne, an d t h e w h o l e t ra i n was w ithi n a few inches of being thrown off the embankment, a height of nearly eighty feet. The consternation among the passengers was of course very great. It was found that by some negli gence or mismanagement one of the ballast waggons had been left on the line, which the engine had passed over and crushed. Fortunately no one was hurt. The agent of the Bank of Scotland has received a letter, bearing the London postmark, enclosing 11., and also 10s. as interest on it, stating that the writer had, several years ago, taken in the office here one pound more than the sum he should have received, and had " unjustly appropriated it to his own use." This is a good example of doing justice, however late, and the person deserves credit for acting on his repentance. —lnverness Journal.

Mit• COOPER'S " PAIVIFINDER," A lim- MANCE.—We congratulate Mr. Cooper on his return to his old haunts. Here is a story which, in the exalting rat are of its incidents, the mystery of its adventure, the grandeur ectl novelty of its scenery, the vigorous and original portraiture of character, savage and civilized, the perils. by land and by water (in the gigantic and primeval forests, among lurking Indian;, and in the far-spreading lakes infested by hostile craft), and in the n - onder of the story, equals, if it does rot surpa t s, eitbcr " The Prairie" or " The Last of the Mohicans." In" Thf. Pathfinder," the groat American •orelist has eosin asserte.l his supremacy. We believe it will be found to be ilia finest his celebrated romances.— Court Journal. THE WicKED TAX.--On Monday last. th e inhabitants of Preston assembled at the Town-hall, to petition for the repeal of the Corn-laxs. We say the inhabitant, 9 ,f Preston, because we censi,!er that the whole interests and lie tl ligence of the town were represented at that mectirg. A T A amongst the vast assembly there was but one voice, and t-bskt was one of bitter execration of the demon tax. The meeting not composed of Liberals, for Tories were there, and Chtaitt , t , were there, and all party bickering, were forgotten, whi.et heirts of sil spoke in the laisguage which a feeling of vnivei sal oppression had taught them.—Presten Obserrer.—r Anuther meeting is announced.] REMITTANCES OF CASll.—Sillea the introdm tion of the penny postage a very large number of remittance s have been male by inclosing; coin in letters; and, from the great carelessness displayed in the mode of inclosure, it ha s y e t, often h a ppened that the sovereigns, and shillings, and sixeence., have found their way out of the ieelosures into the mail-beg s and letter-boxes, in which case it is next to impossible for Post masters to return them to their proper places. In addition to this source of evil, a considerable number of letters - mining remittances of this kind have been missed altogether; and, as no register is now kept of them, there is very 1110 e chance of their recovery. Under these circumstances. itt is desirable that parties who wish to make remittances shoed, as much as possible, avail themselves of the fest-office order/ fhr that purpose, which arc perfectly safe, and , which, far anv sum under V., are granted for sixpence. Where a very small cam, such as a shilling or sixpence, is to be remitted, it is, of coarse, not worth while to pay- for an order; but in sueh eases, par ties who make remittances should be careful to wrap the coin carefufsy no in one corner of tho sheet of paper before they begin to fold the letter ; and then it cannot very *any fall fit. —Manchester Guardian.

SOLO __AL MONS, Optician t o th e R oyal Family, &c., 36, Old Bond-street, Piccadilly, andiNo. 1, Old Jewry, City, takes this oppor. tunity to state, that the unexampled success and ratronage which his PATENT SPECTACLES and IMPROVED VOICE e ONDUC . TORS have received from the public, has induced some unprincipled s emnirics, in his immediate neighbourhood, to delude the public by r apecieus advertisements in the Daily Papers, misrepresenting as k i . " newly.invented Spe c t ac l e L enses " the commonest description of Spectacle Glasses, most pernicious to the sight, which are purchased S from Mr. Reardon, spectacle-glass-maker 42, Easton-street, Exmouth. ' , street, Clerkenwell, a t Ei g ht pence t h e rair. To sanction this ini. quitous system the names of some obscure apothecaries and oth .rs ° are set forth, and o n e respecta bl e name, wh i ch has evidently been surreptitiously used by the Messrs. S. and B. Solomons, of Albemarle e street, Piccadilly, as the following statement will confirm :—On the sth of November, 1839, they published in the " Morning Post" an advertisement, of which the annexe d i s a copy :—" From Dr. ' F. H. Ramsbotham, M.D,—The newly invented Spectacle Lenses of the Messrs. Solomons appeal to lift the veil of indistinct ness thrown over the beauties of nature and the page of - lore by dim or defective eyesight, is an acquisition of no common interest to the thousands who require them ! 1 have been using them for some time, and say from experience that they • affard most astonishing relief to persons thus circumstanced.— F. H. Ramsbotham, M.D., New Bond.street." Four days after in , the same paper, and also in the " Courier," appears in the following Advertisement from the same parties •—" The Messrs. Wesson' take the earliest opportunity to state that the name of Dr. F. H. Ramsbotham has been used in an Advertisement by mistake and ' without authority." From the above facts Mr. E. Solomon, has been leil into the following observations :-Ist, As from the scrupu. lous omission of INITIALS or ADDRESS to the latter reluctant ] Advertisement, it might naturally be attributed to the above este- j blishment, bearing the name—he therefore disclaims all knowledge of it. 2d, It is evident that such a tissue of nonsense as teems in the ; testimonial beaming the signature of Dr. Ramsbothan, never ems. nated from that gentleman, or from any person endowed with a libe- 1 ral education. • . Mr. E. S. avails himself of the present mode, to state that the sale 7 of his Amber Spectacles is secured to his house by t " Royal Letters Patent" They possess the advantage of modifying bright and A strong light transmitted through the various humours of the eye, 1 so as to render vision most perfectly distinct by day, or lamps or car.- ,; tiles at lithe conveying also a sense of coolness and pleasure to the organ, m i . with the additi ona l recommendation of being free from the perni cious attributes of common glasses.

From their minute construction, and convenient form, deaf persons are enabled to wear them entirely T 1 unseen, and they may be inserted and removed with the greatest fa- ay cility. By their use the lowest whisper breathed at a pubic asst•mbiv Ti vibrates on the organs o f hearing in such a pleasant manner as to at- ' ' ford the ercatest relief to those labouring under the distress ng ail.
