The " bankers of tendon," it seems, are to blame for this, Mr. Jones of course, being excepted, just as he was ex from the remonstrance of the bankers of Lon- ' against the Bill when it was passing through ' Parliament in 1844. The Government fcund so . much light on the subject of the currency and of the existing state of affairs between Wednesday morning and Saturday night last, that though on Wednesday they thought they could do nothing, yet early on Monday morning they " felt confident that, in the present circumstances, the measure which they have proposed may be safely adopted ; and that, at the same time, the main provisions of the law, and the vital principle of preserving the convertibility of the bank-note, may be firmly maintained." We dare say that, as events between the 21st and 25th October taught them so much, it may be possible that further ' events will give them additional light, and ultimately enable them to discover that the " vital principle" of convertibility must go with the rest. This con vertibility is now their " rock ahead," and unless they find some reason for taking another course than that in which it lies, while they avow that this con vertibly is still their darling, they will assuredly be shipwrecked. We advise them to lose no time in putting themselves to school to learn how the country may have a full and safe currency, not liable to depreciation, and yet not convertible into a fixed amount of anything which it can be the interest of merchants to export. COUNTY OF MIDDLESEX WANTED TO BORROW, on the security of the County Rates for Middlesex, for the purposes of the Act 8 and 9 Viet., c. 126, relating to Pauper Lunatic Asylums, the sum of TWENTY THOU SAND POUNDS, in one or more sums, not less than 1,0001. each, to be advanced on the 2(1 December next.

Doctor 0 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 eonditions, in order that It may be really the cause of mutual happiness. Could the veil. which cevers the origin of domestic wretchedness, be raised, and its true source in every instance disclosed, in how many could it he traced Is 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 constitutional and vital powers. The particular excesses, on the nature and consequence of which this Treatise professes to dilate, are productive of greater severity of misery to the human frame, than any other to which it is subject. This work contains an accurate and complete account •f 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 mere importance than the preservation of the health, and of the physical capabilities of which every man should be possessed. It unfortunately happens that the unhappy victim of excessive indulgence and vicious habits, whether acquired in early life or from the follies of advanced age, while suffering from their invariable consequences, unwisely entertains a 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 alone it can be procured. In acting thus, he forgets that accurate discrimination in ascertaining the causes of disease, sympathy with the sufferer, and, above all, secrecy, inva riably characterise the intelligent and practical physician, and to the medical man who can show by his posse sion of the requisite legal 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.

TIMES.—We shall expose ourselves to no little derision, but really we feel rather like naughty boys kept in and tasked, when a holyday is given to the rest of the school. Nothing can equal the chorus of jubilation which rises all round us for Monday's de liverance. Our Contemporaries vie with one another which shall shout the loudest and throw up his cap the nearest to the stars. If the " boon" was to be given, it is a pity it was not reserved for a royal birthday, when it would have come very suitably in the place of the general gaol delivery that used to adorn such occasions. The pulpits, of course, will take it up, and cry " Babylon is fallen." A giant incubus of some sort or other is removed from the ap prehensions ofa considerable portion of society. The unanimity is wonderful ; and, what is more wonderful still, there is pretty nearly the same amount of talent exhibited by parties that have hitherto afforded no room for comparison on this point. Sentiment levels all human inequalities. A beggar can share his grief with a king, and a genius sympathise with a fool. There is much the same diversity in the persons who join in the transports of the present occasion.' 'We never saw wise men so weak, or weak men so witty. They don't know when to stop, they are all so beside themselves with joy. " Peel's Bin is knocked on the head! Hurrah !" and there are before us at least ten pages of uninterrupted shouting. Of course we are entirely out of the sport. All we can do is to be malignant and prophetic, unless when some ancient bit of wisdom, some homely old fable or proverb, occurs to our relief. We have derived a little satis faction from remembering the tale of the saucy maids who wrung off poor Chanticleer's head because he disturbed their morning's dro99.s. It is true we have crowed both early and shrill. Of course we are a public nuisance, and have been so for some time. We have not, however, for many a long day been so unmercifully abused as within the last twenty-four hours. All this we could stand with equanimity enough. The worst is, whatever comes to pass, even if every bit of gold should eventually depart from the coffers of the Bank, and the rate of discount rise to 20 per cent., we shall not be allowed the smallest credit for our present opinions. A dozen writers will cry out, " Did we not tell you all this ? We predicted as much." Or there will be the repeal of the corn-laws on which to lay all the misfortunes of the country. Disasters are laid upon free trade just as broken crockery is thrown out of sight into the first hole that can be found. , Whatever the result of last Monday's measure, whatever the disappointment of Ministers, it will be claimed as a triumph by some of the parties whose shouts for the suspension of Peel's Bill are still ringing in our ears. All this immense and un bounded satisfaction is—for what ? For an increase of our capital ? For any increase of exports likely to balance our accounts with our neighbours ? For the increase or cheapening of the materials of industry ? Not for one of these things ; not for any one substantial benefit whatever. There is nothing whatever to justify this demonstration of joy and security, except a word a breath of air —a promise of credit, an exhibition of confidence by Government. The very persons who have been trying with all the might of des perate stupidity to attach a sobriquet to the Chancellor of the Exchequer founded on his habit of hoping for the best, and who recently declared that his confidence was of no value, are now transported beyond the decencies of civilised delight at a word of encouragement, a pat on the back from Sir Charles. He promises credit. That is enough. The position of the country is not a bit better to-day than it was on Saturday. There is no assignable improvement of wealth, condition, powers, or resourees. The only change is this—whereas nearly the whole nation had been foolishly and im morally contracting engagements beyond a safe esti mate of its means ; and the only party in the State which had not so pledged itself beyond its depth was the Government; that single exception no longer ex ists ; Government has joined the delusion ; Govern ment has engaged its credit beyond the safe estimate of its power, made after much consideration in the Bank Charter Bill; Government is now in 'a position to find itself one day stopping payment, and completing the list of princely mercantile houses that have sunk under the storm. A measure such as that which has just been sus pended represents only that moral control which a strong-minded man will exercise over his runaway, or, to use the modern term, his " go-ahead" appetites. A. man with some scruples imposes a law on himself, a limit beyond which he will not transgress. He is tempted, excited, bewildered, ashamed. At last he gives up his principle. lie feels an immediate libera tion. He is now at large. He can do as he likes. He is no longer the slave of discretion. This is all that the nation has to boast of. The conscience of the nation, the high controlling power," has given way. Thereat ambition, covetousness, rivalry, a nd all the more fiery impulses greatly rejoice. It is the confidence of intoxication, and amounts to nothing but " Thank God, I have a better opinion of myself than I had a year since." We have not the least desire to mingle in such rejoicing. On unquestionable grounds we fear that the capabilities of this country are a good deal worse just now than they have been this twelvemonth. The deputation from the Lancashire cotton-spinners, who ought to have been heard at the same time as the Liverpool requisitionists, throws some light upon the state of affairs. They give us some serious facts, and, even where they err in demanding an unwarrantable interference with speculators, they point out inciden tally how little claim those gentlemen have to be buoyed up by the credit of the State. In answer to a question by Lord John Russell, the cotton-spinners make some interesting explanations. So " vicious," they say, is the system of credit which has obtained in Liverpool, that a speculator can buy 10,000/. worth of cotton by the deposit of 1,0001. or 2,000/., giving to the broker an acceptance for the whole amount. The banker discounts this bill, holding the cotton as security. Thus, a hazardous speculation intercepts the cotton on its arrival, and enhances the price, sometimes to an exorbitant degree, b e f o re it gets to the factory. But all d e p en d s on the state of dis counts. The business may be said to subsist On dis count, as nine-tenths of the capital is borrowed for the nonce. Of course, they who play such tricks must expect to be ruined now and then ; and if a bank chooses to take part in a speculation, and share the profits, it must also abide by the laws of the game. So extensive is the prac tice as to create a direct antagonism of interests and jealousy of feeling between Liverpool and Manchester. The deputation from the latter place a re for summary measures—for illegalizing the sort of operation we have described. At least, they pro pose that the security should be invalid beyond one half or two-thirds of the value of the produce de posited. It is needless to say this plan will not do. Mercantile " pressure" is the proper and natural remedy for this game. 'When a few of these reek less and grasping speculators have been obliged to sell their produce at a loss for want of discounts the plague will abate. However, neither of these two remedies, it seems, will be applied at present. The importunities of the Liverpool bankers and mer chants have prevailed. An inexhaustible supply of discounts is promised, and, as a natural consequence, the speculation revives, cotton rises in the market, and further difficulties are thrown in the unfortunate cotton-spinner's way. CHRONICLE. —Although we are not aware, from anything we have recently seen or heard, that the Times posseses the power of dangerously misleading the public mind on commercial questions, we:unaffectedly deplore the course which our contemporary has of late been pleased to p ursue. It cannot be a g reeable to any considerate pe rson to see a once influential Ydi e mployed in as s i s ti ng t o g i ve direction organ of the press fritt er away powers for p ublic use fulness which might h ave been—and we t r ust y e t l a naybeal practically and policy. Freely cr editing our contemporary, of course, with an average amount of good wishes and be—advantageously to nation a l o pi n i on s 1 intentions, we do think the responsibilities of journal ism have sat more lightly on him throughout the recent crisis than is right or becoming. He has borne public misfortunes with a com posure which, if exhibited under the pressure of private calamity, would evince a truly stoical for titude. The literary recreation of writing smart things, and dressing up c ommon-places i n inge to • niously twisted diction , seems have seriously im paired both his natural sympathies, and his taste for the practically useful. If our contemporary had actually enjoyed the crisis, he could not have laboured, with more of apparent self-satisfaction, to make the worst of things, and to enforce, in his best style of stilted jocosity, the grand moral of letting ill alone. He has written up the policy of inaction and despair, in a style of sly humour and quaint eloquence which would be really pleasant, notwithstanding its affectation, if one could quite forget that the matter was serious. Under the circumstances, it is impos— sible not to lament the total absence of any attempt d the f' at useful suggestion, a n systematic derision o the best-considered inet hods of alleviation. There is something offensive in this easy and indolent, not to say heartless, wa y of treating a national disaster. To tell a suffering and panic-struck community, morning after morning, that the best thing they can do is to leave the " agony to " take its course,' [ADvEirrisEmENT.]-one ofthe gr eatest impositioris practised at the present day by sh o p kee p ers, not only in London, but in every city and town throughout the Kingdom, is that of forging the property of auother, and imposing on the puLlic the count erfeit article with all the assurance of innocence.—We allude in the present instance to those admirable requisites for the toilet, the Macassar Oil, Kalydor, and Odonto, as prepared by the Messrs. Rowland, and which, from their merits and re putation, are the constant objects of fraudulent imita tion. The parties so counterfeiting concoct some trashy compounds resembling in appearance the preparations of Messrs. Rowland, and by adopting the very same names and copying the labels, bills, &c. &c. endeavour to pass them off us the " GENUINE ;" reckless of the injury which they will inevitably inflict on those who are de ceived into using them. We would therefore advise all patrons of Messrs. Rowlands' articles, to purchase only of respectable venders—and particularly to observe the Caution in their advertisements which frequently appear in our paper. ZOOLOGICAL SOCIETY 01' LONDON.—Her Majesty has sent a fine specimen of South American tapir to the gardens in the Regent's park, which she had already dis• tinguished by several marks of her favour during the current year. The animal in question will not be valued ou account of the source from which the Society has derived it, but also as filling up an important vacancy in their collection, which, we are informed, has just re ceived two other additions of great interest—a group of the great bustard, and an alligator of unusual dimensions, SALMON Fisnum—The salmon fishing in the Tweed closed on Friday last, the 15th of October. From the quantity of fish sent into the West Riding of York shire and to the Glasgow market new markets opened up in consequence of the opening of the railways--it is impossible to arrive at anything like a correct result of the quantity of fish caught during the season. In general terms, however, it may be stated, that the season just closed has been more than ordi narily unsuccessful—even on a comparison with former seasons scarcely considered an average. The prices, in consequence of the meagre supply in the town, have never been below 7d. per lb. for grilse, and Bid. to 9d. per lb. for salmon.—Berwick Warder. HINTS TO WINE DRINKERS. —On Friday 103 hogsheads of adulterated wine were brought out from the erarepot at Paris, and their contents spilt into the Seine. "Immediately after this operation (says an eye- witness) the surface of the river was covered to the distance of 200 yards with an innumerable quantity of fishes, poisoned by the deleterious liquor."—Galignani's Messenger. [ADVERTISEMENT ]—CURE OF A CANCER OF THREE YEARS' STANDING BY HOLLOWAY'S OINTMENT AND PILLS.—MIS. Ilagin, of Armagh, had a cancer on her lip for three years, wlsier. the first medical men in the country could not cure ; at last she WI - is advised to purchase Holloway's Pills and Ointment, at Mr. 'Moral). son's, bookseller, Armagh, which effected a perfect cure. No )t wounds, sores, abscesses, or bad legs, even if of several years' do ration, can resist the curative powers of these extraordinary medi cines; by their great efficacy many have regained the complete use of their limbs, when upon the eve of submitting to amputation at the hospitals and elsewhere.—Sold by all druggists, and at Professor 1191loway's Establishment, 244, Strand, London. and to let the " progress of stoppage" go quietly on accordingwhich h t o C a o ß c k r i e t r i s , h is hardly journalist the to a obliga tionsßritish public. If a public writer really can find nothing more to the purpose to say than this, there would be at least decorum in'clothing so fearful a message in sober and earnest modes of speech. Our contempo rary's vehement aversion to all attempts at alleviating the pressure of unavoidable commercial difficulties, and breaking the force of a calamity that strikes him as being admirably en re le, leads him, of course, to put the worst possible face on the late proceeding of Ministers. That the beneficent " progress of stop page," and march of insolvency, should have been so " rashly" interfered with—at a time, too, when its rapid acceleration had begun to produce all the happy consequences contemplated by legislative wisdom in 1844—is, very naturally, set down by him as the worst thing that has befallen the nation yet, during the whole of the rail way era. This we can understand ; and we are in no way solicitous to deprive our contemporary of the satisfaction of nursing his grievance. The luxury of woe may be pardoned some unseemly extravagances of expression, when the chief mourner has the irritating consciousness that his dear deceased has left but few friends and admirers. We are not, however, so easily disposed to give our contempo rary quite his own way in stating the rationale of what Ministers have done, or undertaken to do. It may be the taste, or the policy, of the Times, to magnify to the uttermost all the possible and contin gent tendencies of a mischievous character that can be imagined to lurk in the " virtual surrender " of " Peel's Bill," and to " carry out the principle" to the length of an eventual and prospective " suspen sion of specie payments." But it is not desirable that any public writer should be allowed, uncorrected, to indulge his ill- temper in careless and sweeping misdescriptions of an important act of the Govern ment. We take leave, therefore, to register our de nial of the dictum f the Times, that " the Mi nister has undertaken to regulate the supply of money"—or, as it is elsewhere repeated, that " Go vernment now comes forward as a great money lender." Lord John Russell has no more undertaken to regulate the supply of money than Sir Robert Peel undertook, in the session of 1846, to regulate the supply of food. What Lord John Russell does now is, like that which Sir Robert Peel did then, a qua lified withdrawal of the regulating hand of the State from an affair which it is experimentally found that the State has regulated very absurdly. The Govern ment no more comes forward now as a great money lender, than the Government came forward then as a great food purveyor. The Government comes for ward to relax (in a particularly cautious and guarded manner, by the way,) certain artificial restraints on money lending, which have been but very recently imposed, and which are found to work intolerable mischief. It is nonsense to talk of this act of Ministers as an assumption, on the part of the State, of responsibility for the condition of the money market, or as an " interference" with the natural laws of commerce and banking. The implied appeal to the just and reasonable aversion felt by all thoughtful persons to " State interference" with mercantile transactions, is a perfectly ungrounded appeal. So far as it goes, the Ministerial proceeding is a piece of non-interference policy. It is a cautious, and almost timid, move in the laissezfaire direction. Positively one would think, to hear our contempo . rary, that "Peel's Bill" was a rescript of nature—that the gimcrack of 1844 belonged to the eternal order of things—that its " virtual surrender" was like loosening a screw in the frame-work of the universe. What Ministers have done may be right or wrong ; but assurredly it is not open to the Times's objec tion. S o far from having "come forward" to "interfere," for the purpose of helping commerce out of natural difficulties, it would be nearer the mark to say that the State has stepped back, and (pro tanto) desisted from an interference that is seen to have plunged commerce into artificial difficulties, and turned a pres sure into a panic. We think the commercial com mon sense of our countrymen may fairly be trusted to comprehend the true meaning of the Ministerial act of Monday, and to rate it at its just practical value. It abrogates, so far as it goes, a needless and mischievous interference with the natural laws of commercial credit—an interference which had be the operation of the Banking Act, and given up the principle for the maintenance of which they so long contended. Had the author of our troubles not advised the opening of the safety-valve, we were all to have been blown mercilessly into the air. This says much for the lamentable incompetency of the Whigs, but little for the financial sagacity of Sir Robert Peel. Upon his ability as a Minister of Finance, the late Premier staked his credit to the world, and has lost his pledge. His famous and pet measure, inoperative in prosperous times, has broken down at the first appearance of gloom and pressure. Whilst other men foresaw the inability, Sir Robert asserted proudly the capability of his Bill in a season of difficulty and trial. The first test robs him of the halo with which credulity had so long surrounded him. The man who is alone competent to govern for a mer cantile community would have swamped such a com munity had they nut taken matters into their own hands, and overturned his precious handiwork. Sir Robert Peel, who framed the Banking Bill of 1844, and the present Whig Government, who, under Sir Robert Peel's patronage, adopted the Bill as their own, have both been beaten by public opinion arrayed against them and the 'organs which, to the last moment, have upheld their cause. Sir Robert Peel makes public confession of his error when the ' truth is extorted from him, and can no longer be withheld—his puppets echo his words, and do his bidding when he moves the strings. Is nothing to be learned from these facts ? If Sir Robert Peel has given way where he defied criticism and claimed uni versal applause, what is the inference ? If he is not to be trusted as a financier, is he to be considered immaculate as a free-trader? The ancient divinity, who played its idolators false in one respect, was not relied upon or referred to in others. If the God of War will not gain victories:for his supplaint soldiers, he will hardly be more generous where his influence is less apparent. Within three years we have wit nessed a great statesman pulling down a fabric which he built for perpetuity. Within a second three years he must give a helping hand towards the removal of other obstructions to the public comfort, or they will tumble down without his interference. The relaxation of the harsh provisions of the Banking Act of 1844, even were it twenty times as favour able as it is, would still leave the national industry maimed and afflicted beneath the operation of the free trade scheme of 1846. Our troubles, imminent as they are, and confounded by the operation of conflict ing causes, are still traceable, for the most part, to two special lines of policy—to the free trade policy, which took our money from the country ; and to the financial policy, which refused to supply, in any way, the place of that money on its departure. The pri mary source of the mischief is still untouched. How long it will remain so depends upon the goodness of Providence and the endurance of man. The sinking trade of our cities and towns, the depopulated facto ries, the falling revenue, the sounds of complaint and discontent heard amongst the labouring masses of the country, are no evidences of stability and long life— give us no reason to hope that the last measures of Sir Robert Peel will share eventually a nobler fate than the first. If they be not doomed we have strangely miscalculated the operations of cause and effect. During the discussion of the Banking Act of 1844 (if we re member rightly) it was proposed in Committee of the House of Commons to introduce a clause giving the Bank of England, in times like the present 0 , r a d e p d iv v b e y r o t e meting nove r g n the me n t p r o e n s s u Mons i d m a I a y I r a s t t o . instance of the present Chancellor of the Exchequer. Sir Charles Wood is down upon his knees,—so is Sir Robert. But they have both to fall still lower. POST.—The Russell Government had so com pletely committed itself to the restrictive policy in respect to money, that it acquires no respect, and de serves no gratitude on account of what was done at the last moment to relieve the pressure upon the public and upon the Bank. When the Liverpool deputation was in London, but a few days ago, the answer of the Government was, not only that it could do nothing, but that if it were to authorise advances upon the public credit, it would thereby make mat ters worse. Yet the Government a few days after wards sends a missive from Downing-street to the Bank, recommending to be done that very thing which come totally unendurable, at a time when circum stances imposed extraordinary exertions on our trade and industry—and it places us consequently in a far better position for grappling with difficul ties, and bearing up under pressure. That is all. People need not frighten themselves with visions of " suspension of specie payments"—and they must not be up in the air with the notion that Govern ment will, or can, " make money easy." " The pro mise to pay" means all that it has ever meant, and there is not the smallest danger of its not being faith fully kept ; only a new patent device for ensuring convertibility turns out to be preposterously costly and cumbrous, and is condemned accordingly. And the railway-and-potato difficulty is just as formidable as it was; only we are better prepared to contend with it and subdue it, now that we have got rid of an extra difficulty which we had very ingeniously manu factured for ourselves. The gold in the Bank is a finite quantity, and the age of miracles has ceased ; only we have made up our minds that our gold shall not lie quite idle, and that we will use it as far as it can really be made useful, without infringing the rules of practical commercial prudence. How very pleasant and beneficial it would be, if the Times could lay aside its crotchets, its ill-humour, and its affectations, and help us in explaining to the public the exact practical merits of a question of so much public interest. it had said would make matters worse I . `Vas it that after the Liverpool deputation had departed the grand and statesmanlike thought occurred to Sir C. Wood, that Government might take advantage of the crisis to do a little bit of usury ? Was it that though the misery of Liverpool could not touch the Ministerial mind, yet the possibility of going snacks with the Bank of England in a charge of eight per cent. upon advances, had given a favourable complexion to the recently-rejected pro position ? On the 21st of October Ministers could not see that it lay with them to do anything for the relief of the monetary crisis, or that, if it did, they had the ability to apply an efficient remedy. On the 25th of October they say, that " the time has arrived when they ought to attempt, by some extraordinary and temporary measure, to restore confidence to the mercantile and manufacturing community." We should be glad to hear what were the events between the 21st and the 25th which made so great a difference and which satisfied the Ministers on the latter day that it was high time to do what they supposed, or affected to suppose, on the former day, that they had no means of doing. Was it in the interim they had got the leave of Sir Robert Peel to pronounce the practical condemnation of his Bill of 1844 ? Was it that, having duly humbled themselves before that par ticularly honest and consistent personage, they were permitted to avow that his fair-weather scheme of cur rency must be tossed overboard as an intolerable in. cumbrance when the storm raged so as to make matters rather dangerous ? But why is this " ex traordinary" measure of relief to be only " tem porary ?" Are her Majesty's Ministers of opinion that excessive pressure and difficulty are wholesome alteratives ? Do they think that large doses of commercial dismay, and a course of " great stop pages," are now and then good for the health of the mercantile body ? If not, why should they say that a measure, not only extraordinary, but " temporary," is that upon which they have resolved ? We think, if they will condescend to take the advice of men of good sense and experience, who do not go in fear of that eminent and steady statesman, Sir R. Peel, they will set about some important permanent measure for giving to the industry and enterprise of the British empire an abundant currency based upon property—secured by good management from do mestic depreciation, and guarded from exportation by the circumstance of possessing no intrinsic value. If it be true, as some say, that the country has still much practical difficulty to struggle w ith—if it be true that in the coming year a s well as in the present greatertsvhae ev r e y m a c o o np n ieos s tr i at d t heoyernanbo affairsel of the etsh s s a ei c et yrfli Irish i fito e shr e he s apk w eigot i i l pog l olded b o fm a mr v o.e e ma s t lu o strt: b i r e stvoi m dngig a ffio, d lc, e etuhr t ln o et stanceeu n n o i utegdhofoar Kingdom,t b h e e g c g o a u ree n nd t d r y pa o t n o p ü b ul e an a tw r up against the dearness npeasrst c i r oo c tf um the th e raw material of manufacture in another. But in pro portion as these events require great exertion to cope with them, is the insanity of crippling industry by restrictions upon monetary circulation. In an active community nothing stimulates industry like a free circulation of money. Nothing stimulates production so much as rising prices. If, then, there be occasion for more than ordinary exertion—for more than usual activity of productive industry—the readiest and most certain way to promote this is to make money abun dant and to make it safe. In this there is no difficulty - HERALD.—We should wrongly designate the present holders of patronage and power if we called them a Government. Placemen, indeed, they are. Dressed in brief auth or it y , th ey receive the wages of officials and the mouth service of underlings and de pendents ; they wear fine liveries, hold councils, and enforce observances ; but as for governing the coun try, the wax-work Ministers in Madame Tussaud's brilliant exhibition are just as useful and efficient. In 1846 Lord John Russell was driven to interpose between famine and a starving people in Ireland. Against his will, his conviction, and his resolution, he was forced to purchase food for a community threatened with decimation by a frightful plague. After he had avowed that the only way to ensure a helpless people's safety was to leave them to shift for themselves, and after hundreds of thousands of his fellow-creatures had fallen victims to the atrocious policy, he was literally compelled by the indignant spirit of the United Kingdom to provide food for hunger, sustenance for dying men. The Minister did not rule the country ; the country governed him. In the battle between general common sense and indi vidual political conceit, the former, as a matter of course, finally gained the victory, but at a cost of human life far beyond that occasioned by any one sanguinary war recorded in universal history. In 1847 the tale is repeated in England. We have had a famine of money, and the Minister has obstinately refused to allow the people to be fed. Granaries have by no means been empty, but the gates have wilfully been locked. Commerce has sickened, credit has been destroyed, yet Government has placidly ” looked on and said, " Things must ta ke their course. Shall we sum up the hearts broken, the happiness lost, the beggary produced by the failure of commercial houses, the suspension of labour on extensive works, the sudden dismissal of willing hands in almost every city of the kingdom, all brought about by gross incompetency and unpar donable self-sufficiency ? ' Again, the good sense of the people has strain hauggled with the stubbornness of t he Minister, and ags the latter been defeated. The governed have laid prostrate the governor. The 25th day of October, 1847, has seen the barrier knocked down which was raised against the crying necessities of the nation, and has also beheld a feeble Government utterly im potent before the demands of a community who un derstand their interests better than their masters, and do the work which they handsomely pay others to accomplish. Had Ireland been tranquil under the dolce far niente system of the Minister, who shall say how wide -spread would have been the havoc ; where fever, the offspring of famine, would have stopped ; where anarchy, the parent of all mischief, would have failed to extend her melancholy wing ? Had the merchants and tradeg. of England submitted to the flippant dismissal of the Chancellor of the Ex chequer, the other day, who shall calculate the amount of disaster that would have been heaped on the country ; the extent of the bankruptcy that was about to involve so many in irremediable ruin ? We be lieve in our hearts that, with the last capitulation of Ministers, our mercantile troubles aro in the way of removal. The renunciation of the principle of the Banking Act of 1844 is the dawn of a brighter day. The submission to facts which could not be overturned is a confession of error which renders a return to the old and vicious system a sheer impossibility. However inadequate may be the aid afforded, the argument conceded is of vital consequence. For the future the Legislature will never place a drag chain upon the energies of trade and commerce whilst the country is laden with pro perty, and men of substance and character are de sirous to engage in legitim a t e and prof Robert P ee l table enter prise. The immediate f o ll owers of are chuckling at th e p ower of their i have rather reason t o mourn at his master; they sole instigation , 1 • t is averred, defeat. At hi s Ministers have relaxed if the Government would exercise common sense, re gulated by experience and inspirited by courage. Her Majesty's Government are pleased to inform the Governor and Deputy-Governor of the Bank of Eng land, that " they are not insensible of the evil of any departure from the law which has placed the currency of this country upon a sound basis." Such a para graph as this affords a notable instance of the silliness to which Ministers of State may be driven, when the pressure of events compels them practically to condemn that which is still with them a favourite theory. What can be more absurd than to say that a certain law has placed the currency on a sound basis, when the very purport of the letter in which thi s assertion is made is to relieve the currency from the intolerable restrictions which this law has imposed? If the currency be placed upon a sound basis by Peel's Parliament ?ls itn law, why authorise the Bank to v i o l a t e P eel ' s la w an , a a ll ß y il m l euafn In demnityawnnd and pr for ise s t u o ch violation applyto ridiculous thus to cling to the theory that Peel's Bill is sound, when they are forced to su pend it, lest ab so l u t e ruin to the whol e mercantile community should b e th e result of its de s t ruc ti ve operation sigh, and vo w , an d protest as they? But let Minister s may about Peel's Bill, Peel's Bill is doomed It has been tri e d, an d found guilty. Sentence is * ing of Parliament, but in the meantime its func tions are suspended. Even the anticipates Times, thatweeps evil from the event, andall - manner of evil from suspending a law which threatened almost im mediate bankruptcy to two-thirds of the mercantile community, does not hesitate to admit that the law has received its death-blow. " The Bank Charter Act," exclaims our angry, because disregarded, con : temporary, "is virtually surrendered." Again - we are told, in the same column, that " the measure certainly does appear in its tendency a fatal blow to ADVERTISER.—It is surprising, that amid all the suggestions whi c h h ave been made for mitigating the monetary pr ess u re , one o f t h e s i mp l est, sa f est, an d it might be supposed most obvious, should have been overlooked. We have, on previous occasions, men tioned a fact not very generally known to the English public, namely, that in Scotland the cur rency consists exclusively of a paper medium. No gold ever enters into the monetary circulation north of the Tweed. A sovereign is never seen in Scot land. The Scotch are so wedded to the one-pound notes, that however great the absolute attractions of gold may be in their eyes, it loses all its charins when placed in competition with the pictorial bits of paper issued by the British Linen Company, or any of the other established banks in Scotland. And yet, though a metallic currency is unknown in that country, Sir R. Peel's Scotch Currency Bill compels the Scotch banks to keep, at all times, a large amount of gold in their chests. The object, as stated by the ex-Premier himself, is that the notes of the banking companies may be convertible into gold on presentation. The whole affair is an absurdity. It is contrary to all experience of the Scotch people to suppose that they should demand gold for the paper of their banking institutions. They never have given the least ground for supposing that they will prefer sovereigns to one pound notes; and those whol know them best, and know moreover, the perfect stability of their banking establishments, can have no hesitation in saying they never will—not, at least, in our day or generation. Sir Robert Peel, therefore, in assimilating the Scotch banks to the banks on this side of the Tweed, showed that he altogether misconceived the character of the Scotch people. He neither comprehended their genius, nor the genius of their monetary institutions, when he imagined that their currency could not rest on a secure ground, unless, as in England, it was based on a metallic foundation. The Scotch Mem bers did everything in their power to enlighten the Right Hon. Baronet's darkness in reference to this point, but their efforts failed of success. He clung with an unyielding tenacity of grasp to his favourite crotchet—that there can be no security for a currency which is not based on the precious metals. This crotchet was incorporated in the late currency measure, and the result is that for every one-pound note which the Scotch bankers issue, beyond a certain amount of paper, they are obliged to put aside a so vereign. The amount of gold which in this way, ar.d from this absurd regulation, is constantly lying utterly useless in the Scotch banks, is not much under 2.000,0001. at the present time, and on no occa sion is it below 1,.500,000/. Now, is it not deplorable that so large an amount of bullion should be lying wholly useless in the Scotch banks, at a time when we are threatened with a national bankruptcy, in conse quence of the scarcity of the precious metals ? The letting loose of this locked-up gold would be a most appropriate accompaniment to the measure to which Ministers have had recourse for the relief of the mer cantile community. It would add very greatly to the beneficial effect of that measure. And, besides conferring a great bop on the country, it would be cordially welcomed -by the Scotch bankers. Not only is it a serious inconvenience to them to be constantly ordering down from London large chests of gold which are never opened, and which, when they contract their paper circulation, they return to the metropolis, but it would be a very great saving to them. The estimate of the loss sus tained by the Scotch banks by being obliged to keep so large an amount of unproductive gold in their coffers, is no less than 60,0001. a year—a very con siderable sum in a country where the population does not exceed two millions and a half, and where there is comparatively little commerce. Sir Robert Peel's notions of a convertible currency might be practically carried out by making the Scotch notes convertible, on presentation, into the paper of the Bank of-Eng land, which is convertible into gold. The suggestion is one which will not, we trust, be overlooked. If brought before the Parliament, on its assembling, we do not see bow it can fail of being adopted. Of one thing we are certain—it would receive the cordial support of all the Scotch Members, every one of whom will bear his testimony to this fact,—that there exists not the slightest necessity for having a single ounce of gold in the banking establishments north of the Tweed. MONEY MARKET and CITY NEWS. CITY, TUECDAY EVENING. CHRONICLE.—The general subject of conver sation in the City to-day has been the order in Coun cil suspending the Bank Charter Act of 1844. Al though it can hardly be expected that those who have hitherto violently supported the measure should express much satisfaction at seeing it so comp'etely set aside, yet the general feeling is that an important benefit has been conferred on commerce by the virtual repeal of the enactment, and that a highly satisfactory result will follow. The large body of London bankers who signed the memorial to Sir Robert Peel at the time the Bank Act was under discussion, earnestly recom mending him not to pass the Bill without a ' safety valve," are of course satisfied with the result of their prediction, and the event justifies their confidence in a reliance on experience and a prudent foresightilin preference to the promises of an untried p author of the measure no doubt regrets not listen to the sugg estion which was thenoffeßrell, and which, if it h ad been incorporated in t he __ _ i , that he did might have preser ved its principle intact. No one suppos es now that an a ttem p t will be made to renew t h e measure in its pr esent form. The best proof of the effect of the suspension of the Act will be found in the reports from the several poofrtathnetmcoimmmmeedrciaiatel dis tricts relief h a d o f h t e h e e n k i e n x g p d e o r i m e n . e e ill ; s t w th i a ll t b t e he o i b m se p r r y e •e v d em f e ro n m t in o t u h r e qcuiotytatiisoiNl,seroyf de cided. all Fanudndi It is true that after the close of the market, as noticed above, a decline took place from the higher quotations of the day, but this was an operation that might be confidently expected, in consequence of parties realising in ordinary course after such an extraordinary rise in prices. We understand that the applications at the Bank today for advances have been very few, and the total amount asked for, par ticularly on loan, was remarkably small. Some curious instances of the effect of returning confidence in bringing out the money that had been hoarded have been mentioned. In one case, a large amount of money which bad been withdrawn from one of the in banks th e fora‘i'dent iidentical specialne te s p w u r h p i o e h s e ,l h ' a N d v a b s e re been t u g r n i v e c, d to-d ay n t, o the in the City party some weeks back !
