By THOMAS WITLAM ATKINSON. Hurt and Blackett, Publishers, 13, Great Marlborough-street. On Tuesday "a meeting of the noblemen, land owners, merchants, and manufacturers connected with the west of Scotland," was held in the Mer chants' Hall, Glasgow, to consider • the present financial crisis, to express their confidence in the Scotch banks, and to determine how the existing difficulties may bs best met, and public confidence restored. The Hall was densely crowded, and hun dreds were unable to obtain admission for want of room. On the platform there were a number of no blemen and influential gentlemen connected with the west of Scotland, and a large array of the lead ing commercial men of Glasgow. On the motion of the LORD PROVOST, the Duke Hof Hamilton took the chair amidst great applause. WOLVERHAMPTON, WEDNESDAY EVENING. There has been a more quiet day at Wolverhamp ton ; to a great extent the excitement had subsided. Eary in themorning it was known that three of the directors of the bank (Messrs. Briscoe, Tarratt, and Elwell) had gone to London, taking with them the private securities of their estates, for the purpose of seeking assistance from the Bank of England. Up to a late hour in the afternoon no reply had been I received.. It is to be hoped, however, that it wilt be favourable, and that the bank may be re-opened. A measure of that kind would be tb e means of avert ing a large amount of - mischief, for certainly the present is the most severe blow this district has ever received. The amount of assistance sought from the Bank of England is said to be 100,0001. In the course of the day the circumstances in connection with the stoppage of the bank were very much discussed, and as generally condemned. Some of the directors are understood to have dissented from this proceeding, butthe majority, though well intentioned, were too timid for so heavy an emer gency. The stoppage is the more to be deplored, not only because of the immediate mischief, which is irreparable, but because of the bad impression it is calculated to create in reference to the credit of the district.

He would give the government credit fur the energy and determination with which they proceeded to put a step to the mutiny. Three days—and obis was the great merit of Lord Palmerston, for aged as he was he possessed a vigorous mind, a mind capable of appreciating events and expressing itself vigorouly in action—three days after the news of the mutiny reached England, on the let' July, troops were immediately die patched to India. Before the end of the month 15.000 Britieb bayonets had left, and before the 15th Sept. 40,000 left our shore. to revenge the blood of our murdered countrymen. They, however, sent these troops by way of the Cape, and surely every one knew who had com mon sense that the best route to take would have been across Egypt. They bad the means, and yet they did not adopt it.

Was anything more monstrous man to get up and say this of a man whothhand peril led his and broken hie health by so lotwigahoamreistie deuce in India as Lcrd Dalhousie—a man, made no hesitation in saying, was as gr ea t a governor general as ever governed ou r . I n d ian territory ? His name was to be held in as high estimation as that cf Clive and Bentinck—and one still greater than either, as Hastings. It retnailed for Lord Canning, when peaca was rest ore d, rep'ace the chief government ni its former position. He held that the outbreaks in India were to be ascribed to the clear mTDdllaiaCvemt::)abney.lt s tmaaAn asweeping refo e East rms mould intro duced. That was one of the questions they must deal with—a question of the deepest importance. It was not necessary to do away with the East India Company, but they must establish a legislative council at Calcutta, and give it a local power—not letting it write back to England continually for instructions. The Duke of MONTROSE moved the first resolu tion as follows :—" That this meeting has full con fidence iu - the system of banking which has been maintained in Scotland for a long period of years, during which the country has made most rapid ad vances in prosperity ; a confidence confirmed by the events of the last ten days—events which prove beyond all doubt the general stability of the banks although two, and two only, have yielded to the pressure, a pressure aggravated by want of that confidence which is necessary for c srrying on the ordinary dealings of trade.' " His Grace said :—I chink that all those who are connected with busi ness, and who have consequently transacted busi ! ness with the banks, and know the mode in which that is carried on, i must be sensible of the great ad vantages derived 'by this country from the system of credit and banking in existence among us. But for the banking system, the business of this great t )wu, and the manufacturiner and trading interests of the . Coinmuniti, — could not ha:ye bean carried' Ou to the extent to which they have been carried on, and to which we must all wish them to be carried on. (Cheers.) I therefore think that at a moment Arisen distrust has been created from various cir cumstances in the banks themselves, and when also i very large number of persons, at least in England hold that the system of banking in Scotland is not sound, and thatthe system of Scotch bank notes is not a proper one, and would wish to make great changes 4 in that circulation and system of,banking —in these circumstances, I think it is right that we should come forward and state that on the whole we are perfectly satisfied with it, and believe that great dangers and evils would accrue to the country if any great change were to take place. (Cheers.) The noble duke concluded by again reading and proposing the adoption of the resolu lion, and sat down amidst great applause. Sir JAS. FERGIISSON seconded, and Mr. BAILLIE COCHRANE supported, the resolution, which was carried unanimously, as were the others proposed. Lord BELHAVEN proposed the second resolution: —" That this meeting deeply regrets the embarass ment of trade and public loss which would arise from the final stoppage of the two banks which have been obliged to suspend t payment; and, be lieving them to have ample resources ultimately to meet in full every claim upon them, resolves to as sist their proprietors and directors in gaining time for arrangement of their affairs by joining in the resolution so well taken by 300 firms in Glasgow, and, like them, individually pledge themselves to accept payment of rent and claims in the notes of the Western and City Banks." His lordship stated to the meeting, as coming within his own know ledge, that he had seen no gentleman, no indivi duals in his own neighbourhood, or within the county, who had not unanimously come forward and desired that the notes of the two banks referred to should be taken in payment of rents and every thing. The noble duke who occupied the chair, at the moment he heard of the stoppage of the West ern Bank, sent word to all his agents, desiring that hisirents, at this time, might be taken either in notes or deposit-receipts of these banks. (Loud cheers. Sir MICHAEL S. STEWART seconded the resolu tion. He said—l have already acted upon the spirit of the resolution. (Cheers.) I have already received rents paid in notes of the Western and City of Glasgow Banks; and, of course, I shall continue to do so. But I do not want to make any boast in saying this, because it does not depend so much upon the landlords and others whether they receive the notes as whether the other banks will take them. (Hear.) So long as the banks act in the way they are doing at present, I think there need be no fear of landlords and others declining to receive Western and City of Glasgow Bank notes. Mr. WALTER BUCHANAN, M.P., said :—I tbink, in a question involving the principles of confidence, it is of the utmost importance that all classes should unite to express a strong feeling regarding the causes of those evils under which we are at present suffer ing, and it certainly is peculiarly appropriate that gentlemen connected with the land, and the landed aristocracy of the country, should unite with the mercantile interests in any question regarding banks, because it is most certain that for fifty years hack the landed interests, as well as the com mercial interests of this country have been greatly promoted by the institution of our Scotch banks. But in a question of the present kind it is necessary that there should be a united feeling and a united expression of that feeling, and that we should loudly proclaim our confidence in these establish ments. It is not a question among any of us whe ther any absolute risk of loss has been incurred. We are merely met here to endeavour to stem a a headlong panic. The Western Bank, according to the opinion of those who have most particularly investigated its affairs, if it is to continue business, can go on as firmly as before. It has still a million of capital untouched—a million of capital as avail able for bank purposes as it ever was at any former time—and then, in addition, it has a reserved fund, subscribed by its wealthy and public-spirited pro prietary, r i t m es y and , a amounting million more. therefore Western Bank is in as good a position, if only allowed a little time anda little patience on the part of those who have claims upon it, to car ., r t y ai r the business which was formerly entrusted to d a m n e s n w t e , r a all s the elle p s u e r v p e o r s e i o t d f a id ] a a r t g a e n ban yfo k r i ra n feot confidence in the solidity of the Western Ban k g e r e s ptaebriish od. (Applause.) We have every reason to feel per and its ability to pay every claim to the last shilling ; and I say that it will be for the benefit of the community that that bank should be rein stated as before, and remain a large part of the banking system of our country as it hitherto has done. (Applause.) I would wish to say tho same thing with regard to the City of Glasgow Bank. That establishment it is not contended has had any losses—it remains just as it was ; but it has been overborne by a headlong torrent. These two estab lishments have succumbed from mere accident. I do think I am entitled to say that, placed in the same circumstances, exposed to the same panic, there is not one establishment in this city, there is not one of the chartered banks, there is not owe of the joint-stock banks in London, and I believe not even the Bank of England itself could have resisted the pressure. Now, are we in a position to give up these banks ? Because, by accident or caprice, circum stances have so fallen out that these two establish ments have succumbed, are they therefore to be blotted out of our banking system ? I say most assuredly no. (Applause.) Whether by fresh sub scriptheas from the proprietary, whether by aid from Government, by whatever means it is to be done, it would be a grievous evil were these two establishments not again to be reinstated. Sir EDWARD COLEBROKE, Bart., M.P., moved : " That a committee be appointed. to watch the course of events, and to take such steps as may be deemed expedient to carry out the views of this meeting, the said committee to consist of the Duke of Hamilton, the Duke of Montrose, the Earl of Eglinton, Lord , Belhaven, Sir M. S. Stewart, M.P. Sir E. Cole brooke, M.P., Sir J. Fergusson, Walter Buchanan, Esq., M.P. Peter Blackburn, Esq., M.P., with power to add to their number." He said :—Our deepest gratitude is due to those other banks and to a very large portion of the community of Glas gow, who stood forward in the breach, and, with a knowledge of the circumstances in which they were placed, declared the alarm was unfounded, and stated their willingness to take the notes. (Ap plause.) The credit of this country stands upon the confidence of man in man. It is by standing shoulder to shoulder that we shall stem this tor rent ; and I think the effect of this meeting will be to show to the whole country-side that there is that coi,fident disposition among us to stand shoulder to shoulder iu put! iug an end to any slight degree of alarm that may continue to exist. Sir A. ALISON proposed the cordial thanks of the meeting to the Duke of Hamilton fcr his conduct on this occasion. (Great applause.) The Duke of HAMILTON returned thanks, and the proceedings terminated. GLASGOW, WENESDAY. A meetin g of the depositors was held here to-day in the Trades -hill which was crowded t o suffoca tion ; Ei r James Ferguson, of Kirkerran, presided. Mr. FLEurrro, the interim manager, stated that from a rough calculation made on the Gth of Novem ber, the entire liabilities of the bank amounted to 7,671,641/., and the assets to 9,398,1841. It was resolved that the bank should be empowered to re The first failure reported yesterday was that of Messrs. E. Sieveking and Son, connected with the Swedish and Hauaburgh trade, and although ex aggerated statements . were circulated respecting the amount of liabilities, the total will no doubt turn out sufficiently serious to affect the particular branches of business with which they have been associated. It was stated early in the morning that the engagements of the firm would be found to approach 1,000,0001., and that the consequences abroad would be extremely serious. Fortunately the acceptances of the house will not reach more than 500,0001., an amount is all reason heavy enough, and, therefore ' the effect will not be so disastrous as was auticipatesl. Hamburgh and „the North of Europa will novertlieless suffer largely by this suspension, and the full extent of the mischief which will follow cannot be immediately estimated. The circular of the house, issued this afternoon, is subjoined : " 65, Fenchurch-street, London, Nov. 18. 1857. " Gentlemen,—With feelings of the deepest grief we Anne' ice to you the duty which has been forced upon us to suspend payments this day. Embarrassed by the unexpected failure of several houses, whose acceptances we held to a large amount, and the fall of one of whom has compromised some of our West India connections, with whom we are deeply involved, we have also at this critical period been de-1 prived of the customary channels of accommodation ; and the efforts of friends to support us have been ren dered nugatory, by the impossibility of making available a large amount of bills now in our possession. We are thus compelled to take a step, of the pa'nfnl necessity of which we had not until quite recently the remeteit suspicion. " With the assistance of Messrs. Quilter, Ball, and Co., we shall prepare a balance-sheet, which shall be laid before our creditors with all possible dispatch ; but we need hardly add, that from the nature and extent of our business, some time must elapse before its cmepletiem. " Bespeaking your kind sympathy under these sad reverses, __ . " We remain, Gentlemen, " Your obedient, humble servants, (Signed) " E. SIEVINING and SON." The failure of Messrs. Gorrissen, Iluffel, and Co., described as general merchants, was made known in the course of the afternoon, and occasioned some regret. The acceptances of the firm represent 600,0001., but nothing definite has yet transpired with regard to assets, although it is expected that they will prove favourable. As mentioned in the subjoined circular, heavy cash advances to parties in the United States, the firm having acted almost in the capacity of bankers, have precipitated the catastrophe. The house is also reported to have been largely concerned in operations in sugar, and the effect of the suspension will, it is appreLended, like that of Messrs. Sieveking, be seriously felt in Hamburgh, where extensive connections hare been maintained. "1, Royal Erehange-buildings, London, Nov. 18. 1857. "Gentlemen,—With deep regret we have to acquaint you that we are compelled to suspend payment, and have in consequence to request the indulgence of our creditors. "Heavy oath advances to parties in the Waited States, who are at present unable to meet their engagements ; the effect of recent failures in this country, in suddenly rendering unavailable remittances already received ; to gether with the uncertainty which exists respecting future remittances, are the causes which have necessi tated this step on our part. - " Oar books are placed in the haneftrof Messrs. Quilter. Ball, and Co., with instructions to investigate ou r affairs, and to prepare a full statement-of teem for sub. mission to our creditors at a meeting to be convened with the least possible delay, - and of which dde notice will be given. " We remain, Gentlemen, "'Tour most obedient servants, (Signed) "GORRISSEN, HIWILL, and Co." The failure of Messrs. Brocklesby and Wessels, which was announced yesterday morning, has been, it is alleged, produced through the suspension of Messrs. Bardgett, Picard, and Co. The debts aci liabilities are probably under 100,0001., and the result of the assets cannot yet be estimated. An nexed is the circular of the firm intimating the unfortunate event "Muscovy- c ourt, Nov. 18, 1857. "Gentlemen,—We deeply regret being obliged to announce to you, that owing to the depressed state of the corn trade and the present unsatisfactory condition of the money market, we have been compelled to sus pend payment. " A. statement of our affairs, which is now being pre pared by Mr. G. H. Jay, of Old Jewry-chamber 4, will be submitted to you at an early period, and in the mean time we have to solicit your kind indulgence.—We are, gentlemen, your obedt. servants, BROOKLISBT & WEssELs." Messrs. Svendsen and Johnson, another firm in the Swedish t ra d e, was announced as having sus pended in the course of the day. Their operations have not, however, been extensive, being com paratively a young house ; but connection with Messrs. Hoare, Buxton, and Co., and Messrs. Sieveking satisfactory re su lt. and Co., ha re a t once p r oduced,this un- The suspension of Messrs. Allen, Smith, and Co., manufacturing chemists, and interested in mercantile operations, was the last house reperted this afternoon. ThrJ debts and liabilities in this instance are believed to be considerable, and but little is known with respect to assets. Some other suspensions for small amounts were mentioned at the close of business, but the rumours circulated with respect to an important Manchester firm were contradicted. Several cases of bills being returned were announced, but these do not always involve a suspension of payment. A meeting of the creditors of Messrs. R. Bain bridge and Co., who lately failed, connected with the American trade, was held yesterday, at which a preliwivary statement was presented by Mr. G. H. Jay, the accountant, but as it did not show the position of the firm with regard to its Transatlantic engagements, it was determined to appoint a com mittee to wait the receipt of advises from New York. The following circular was issued yesterday after noon by Messrs. Hoare, Buxton, and Co., in ex planation of their suspension, which was anuouuced yesterday :-- "23, Old Broad-street, London, Nov. 18, 1857. "Gentlemen —The unprem dented state of the Money Market having thrown unexpected liabilities upon us, the result of which we are at present unable to estimate, we have been under the painful necessity of suspending our payments. Our dependencies are prit &pally with Sweden ; and relying on the good faith and stability of our correspondents there, which have hitherto charac terised their commercial transactions with us, we trust we shall be enabled to discharge our liabilities in a com paratively limited period. " We have placed our affairs in the hands of Messrs. J. E. Coleman and W., the accountants, and propose to have a meeting of our creditors at the earliest day possible. In the meantime we shall adopt measures for 'the most speedy realisation of assets for division, in order to obviate as far as possible the inconvenience which our suspension may have caused. "The Calcutta and Manchester firms of Hoare, Miller, and Co. are in no way affected by our suspension. "Yours, very obediently, "HOARE, BUXTON, & CO." Yesterday the suspension of Messrs. Edwards and Matthie, East India and colonial brokers, was an nounced under this head. To-day the firm issued the appended circular : it 17, Mincinz-lane, Nov. 18, 1857. "Gentlemen,—lt is with feelings of deep regret that we have felt it necessary to suspend our payments. "Tf failure of houses in thi; country connected with United Sates, combined with the serious fall in produce, has caused us to take this step wh at o o w n i c il e, ca in u o a rd m er e t e o ti a n y g oi e d f detriment to our estate.

Signor Mario and Madame Grisi have returned to Brighten from Paris. Various means have been suggested by which the difficulty may be met, but up to 5 o'clock nothing had bean decided upon. It has been suggested that a meeting of the depositors should be called, and if possible some pledge should be obtained from them to let their deposits rest for the present. If anything of this kind can be done, it would greatly help to free the matter from embarrassment. For other purposes, it is not improbable that as sistance might be obtained by the aid of parties who, on public grounds, are largely interested in the maintenance of the credit of the district. This morning an adjourned meeting of the Cham ber of Commerce was held. A good deal of discus sion took place as to the best course to be pursued. The conduct of the directors of the bank in sus pending business with so much precipitation was very much and Dot favourably commented upon ; but any specific resolution on the subject wits de ferred. The propriety of an application to the Bank of England for the establishment of a branch in Wolverhampton was spoken of, but no definite action was taken on this subject, and the chamber adjourned until Friday. The liabilities of the bank in deposits and credit balances have been estimated at 450,0001. ; and on bills under discount at from 250,0001. to 300,0001. The assets are said to be larger than these two amounts, but their yield must very much depend on the circumstances under which the securities are realised, and under which engagements are met. Unless the bank re-opens, a great number of the small tradesmen who have credit balances will suffer very greatly. Wednesday is market day at Wolverhampton, and a great number of country people were in the town to-day, but there has been no further run upon the other banks, and the shopkeepers continue to take the notes of the Wolverhampton and Staf fordshire Company. The most perfect quiet prevails both in Wolver hampton and throughout the district, and although the labour market 'must suffer considerably, the Ipopulation of this district is generally so orderly and well disposed, and on the part of the employers so strong a disposition to meet the difficulty in that respect with as much liberality as circumstances will permit, that it is hoped a disposition to pre serve order will actuate all parties. The Right Hon. C. P. Villiers, M.P. for the borough arrived in town this morning. (From the Wolverhampton Ch,ronicle of yesterday.) For some time past, - as might have been expected from the position of the trade of the district, the bank was pressed to extend its discounts. It did so, and, unfortunately as it has proved, beyond its available means. It gave assistance, unluckily, with too little prudence and too great liberality. Early last week a great deal of uneasiness was excited in the minds of the directors by the discovery of the fact that an undue amount of accommodation had, unknown to the general body, bean afforded to certain parties who would not otherwise have re ceived it. On Thursday it was deemed prudent, as a matter of precaution, tp decline discounting alto gether, and this fact naturally originated rumours of pressure having fallen upon the bank. Urgent applications were made, but the directors did not feel themselves at liberty to comply with them. On Friday and Saturday these applications were renewed, but circumstances on the latter day had rendered any adequate compliance with them a matter cf impossibility, as a very large amount of acceptances bearing the bank's endorsement were returned. An applfcation for assistance had been made to the Bank of England, had been complied witb, but it was found insufficient. On Friday and Saturday rumours of the difficulty began to creep abroad, although in commercial circles the position in which the bank was likely to find itself placed, owing to the returned bills, was pretty welt known. On Saturday evening many persons declined to take its notes. Throughout Sunday hopes were en tertained that it might, by obtaining further assist ance, be able still succcessfully to encounter the dif ficuities of its position. This assistance, however, was unattainable, and the feeling of alarm having spread, the result was such a heavy withdrawal of deposits on Monday as placed all hope of a SUCCESS • ful struggle with the difficulty, in the present state of the money market, beyond expectation. We understand that , a deputation is now in Lo n d on for the purpose of laying the particulars of the case before the directors or the Bank of England, with the view of obtaining such assistance as may enable the bank at once to resume business. Upon the success of the deputation we cannot venture to speculate ; but we hope that when the very serious consequences likely to follow upon the continued suspension, and the thorough security with which it may be afforded, are placed before them, that it will not be withheld. NEW MEMBERS OP PARLIAMENT. Although only three months and three or four days will have elapsed between the last session of Parliament and that which is to commence on Thursday, Dec. 3, there are several new members to be introduced into both houses, and three seats will still be vacant when Parliament reassembles. Five new Petra will take their seats in the House of Lords, all on the Ministerial side, namely Vis count Milton, late M.P. for Wicklow, who has be come the Earl Fitzwilliam ; Lord Robert Grosve nor, late M.P. for Middlesex, who has become Baron Ebury ; the Right Hon. Thos. Babingron Macaulay, who has become Baron Macaulay ; Lord Cardross, who has become the E irl of Buchan, in the room of the late Earl of Buchan, deceased ; and the Earl of Fife, who has become an English Peer with the title of Baron Skene. Four new members will be entitled to take their seats in the House of Commons, namely—Mr. John Bright, who was elected member for Birmingham, in the room of the late Mr. Muntz, a few days before the expiration of the last session, but who has not yet been introduced ; the Hon. George Byn , ,,r, who has been elected member for the county of Middlesex, in the room of Lord R. Grovenor, who goes to the House of Lords as Baron Ebury ; Mr. Arthur Russell who has been elected member for Tavistock, in the room of Mr. Byng, returned for Middlesex ; and Mr. Wm. Jonnson Pox, who has been returned for the borough of Oldham, in the place of Mr. Platt, deceased. Three seats are etal vacant, and cannot be filled up before the meeting of Parliament, the Speaker not having in time issued the necessary warrants, namely, Wicklow, in the room of Viscount Milton, who has become the Earl Fitzwilliam; Harwich, in the room of Major Warburton, deceased ; and Paisley, in the room of Mr. Archibald nestle, de , ceased. FATAL EXPLOSION. —A fatal explosion took place yesterday morning, shortly after 11 o'clock, at the Equitable Gas Light Company's works, Thames Bank, killieg one man and seriously injuring another. The man killed was at work upon a gas purifier, when it exploded with a tremendous report, causing much con sternation in the neighbourhood of Thames Bank and Pimlico. PEMBROKE DOCKYARD.—The Gannet, 10 guns, screw steam sloop, is to be launched on the 2d of December ; she is in a very forward state. The Assistant-Direetor of Works has visited Pembroke dockyard with the view of learning the amount to be taken in the next estimates for new works. The report is again revived of an ex tension of the sea frontage of this establishment, and there is ample space for this both to the east and west. The present anchorage ground of the Amphitrite, 26 guns, being inconvenient for navigation, is to be change', and moorings are to be laid down in a more suitable spot. Practice firing at a target still continues for the coast guard, during which a red flag is hoisted. When a vessel wishes to cross the line of fire the flag is dropped and firing ceases, and cely commences when the ship has crossed and the flag is rehoisted. We find that the statement which appeared in these columns yesterday respecting th' rec tstiog of this bell is incorrect in several•respects. In mat ters of this kind, of course, we have to depend on information which sometimes turns out to be merely premature gossip, and sometimes more than pre mature. We have now authentic information( that until the evening before that paragraph appeared nothing had been settled about the recasting of the bell. Professor Faraday never was a commissioner respecting it, having stated that he had paid no at-' tention to the subject of bellfounding. Professor Wheatstone, though nominated in the first instance with Mr. Denison and the Rev. W. Taylor, never acted ; the bell will not be recast by Messrs. War ner, and it will not be of the same dimensions as before. Some new light has been thrown upon the cause of the fracture within the last few days, which is not without bearieg on the other proceeding::: Mr. Denison told the First Commissioner of Works immediately after the accident -- that he had no doubt, from a comparision of the weight of the bell with the others subsequently cast from the patterns, that it would be found to be much thicker in the middle or waist than it ought to have beau accord ing to his drawings, and that this undue thickness was the reason why such a heavy clapper had been required to bring out the full sound ; and that the bell had been broken by ringing it with such a clapper, which the sound-bow, or striking part of the bell, was not calculated to bear. It Ilas, been steed before that the bell was generally thicker than Mr. Denison intended, and two tons heavier, and half a note higher ; but it was supposed at first, from measuring the sound bow and the top, that the thickness had only increased pro portionately throughout, and only to an extent which would have done no harm. In order to test the accuracy of this new hypothesis in the most certain way some holes have now been bored through the waist of the bell, and it is found to be no less than 5k inches thick where Mr. Denison's design prescribed only 4i. This at once accounts for the fracture—at least in the opinion of both the re ferees, as stated to Sir B. Hall—by accounting for the unusually large clapper which was re quired, more especially as the fourth quarter bell, which is nearly as large as the great belle of Lin coln and St. Paul's, and is cast according to the prescribed pattern, and comes out the intended weight and note, sounds freely under a compara tively small hammer. So much fnr the death of Big Ben. The reason why his former creators are not to have the reputa tion of bringing him to life again is simply that they asked a price for doing so which was thought unreasonable, even without regard. to the circum stance above stated. It was therefore determined to receive other tenders, and the result is that Mr. Mears's tender is accepted, who offers to recast the bell in three months, on the same conditions as to inspection and certificates and analysis as on the former occasion, and at:a price which will probably not much exceed 6001., as the weight of the bell will now be reduced to what was originally intended, and the diameter to 9 feet, in order to reproduce the same note with the thickness reduced to the proper amount. It may be added that the cost of the bells, even with this extra expense, will nut ex ceed the sun already 'voted by Parliament for them, as the work had thus far been done considerably within the estimate. It is most fortunate that the bell was rung frequently before it went up, as this accident would have been a very much more serious affair, both in cost and disappointment, if it had happened after the bell was up and the clock fixed under it and over the shaft up which the bell must - There was a slight inaccuracy in our longer notice yesterday of the clock tower and clock. The de scription of the clock there referred to is not given in the second edition of the "Encyclopaedia Bri tannica" itself, but in two of Mr. Denison's articles therein lately republished under the title of " Clocks and Locks," from which our information was in a great measure derived. It is expected, moreover, that the new bell, requiring a smaller hammer, will save the necessity of winding the clock by water, as there described. If so, the fracture of the old one will have been a very profitable accident.— , , Times. SPORTING INTELLIGENCE. SHREWSBURY AUTUMN RACES— WEDNESDAY.

The court-ma:tial held last week at the Royal Marine Garrison, Woolwich, for the trial of First- Lieutenant Albert Waepel Sharp, of the Woolwich division of Royal Marine Light Infantry, on charges of insubordinate and un-officer-like con duct, reassembled yesterday mcrning, when the sentence of the Court, approved and confirmed by the Admiralty, was read by Lieutenant and Adjutant Fraser, the officiating Judge-Advocate, to the following effect :—Firsi—That First-Lieu tenant A. W. Sharp, of the Woolwich division of Royal 11 . 1?.rine Light Infantry, was accused of falsely stating to his commanding officer, Colonel J. T. Brown, of the Woolwich division of Royal Marine Light Infantry, when submitting to him a request for leave of absence on th . e afternoon of Oct. 17, 1857, that his accounts with the mess and. the messtuen wece paid up; and for declaring upon his honour on the morning of the 18th that such was a true statement, at which time a sum of 451. 53. 2d., or thereabouts, was due from him to Com pany Sergeant C. Demorr, officers' messman of the division, on account of massing and othar i•ems ; 2d, for absenting himself from duty and parade without leave from hie commanding officer on the morning of Oct. 19, he having been previously re fesed leave of absence ; it appearing that the Court having found the prisoner not guilty on the fist charge, and guilty on thesecond, thecommissioners do confirm the sentence, ordering First-Lieut. A. W. Sharp to ba severely reprimanded and released from arrest. Two courts-martial are ordered to be held th7e day on board H.M. ship St. Vincent, Captain H. Eyres, C. 8., in Portsmouth harbour. The first is on Lieut. R. Bradshaw, of H.M. ship Juno. The charge is : " That he did on board the said ship, on or about Feb. 10, 1857, sleep upon his watch, and negli gently perform his duty while officer of the watch and in charge of the said ship, lying in an exposed anchorage, where the utino,t vigilance was essen tial." The second is on Mr. R. C. Drewe, late acting 'master of H. M. ship Juno, on two charges : " 1. For that he did, on board the said ship, on or about Feb. 10, 1857, negligently perform his duty and forsake his stadon. "2. That he did, on board the said ship, on or about Feb. 10, 1857, conduct himself with disre spect towards Capt. S. G. Freemantle. the com manding officer, by justifying his neglect of duty, and refusing to receive a reprimand from his said cvmmanding officer, which he had justly incurred." The iron screw steamvsssel Sharpshooter 8, has been, commissioned at Portsmouth by Lieut. C. Gibbon. She is to be manned from the depot of "general service" men on board the Victory, of whom that ship has several hundred on her books. The St. Vincent and the Blenheim are also over crowded with them, so that the commissioning of any squadron would be easy just now. The Cesar, 91, screw steam two-decker, was yes terday taken into the dock vacated by the Algiers:, sister ship. They are fitting with all despatch for commission if required. _ _ A general court-martial, of which Lieut.-Col. Jeffreys, C. 8., was president, and Major M. Adye, R. A., Deputy Judge-Advocate, assembled at Win chester on the 16th inst. for the trial of Lieutenant S. C. Matthews, of the 31st Regiment, upon a charge of absenting himself from his corps for a lengthened period without leave from his com manding officer. The result will not be known until the sentence has been approved by the Queen. THE MILITIA.

Queen Elizabeth, in consideration of the important ser vices rendered to his country by Sir John Hawkins, granted honourable augmentations to the family arms, which had been borne by the deceased. This officer entered the navy March 23,1793, as first-class volunteer, on board the Barfleur, 98, Captain J. R.
