When it is remembered that the principal portion of the difficulties experienced in Jamaica and the surrounding colonies is traceable directly and immediately to the deficiency of labourers, and when it is borne in recollection more over that the West Indian planters have in a parti cular manner declared their readiness to continue the present rate of wages under all circumstances, and their solicitude to obtain more labourers at the same rate of remuneration, it is obvious that the necessity of a copious and rapid immigration requires no de tailed or elaborate enforcement. The next consideration, therefore, is the locality from which immigrant labourers can be obtained, and the auspices under,which they should be supplied. In striving to discover a ready answer to the former inquiry, we are irresistibly reminded of the Hill- Coolies ; but the notorious fact that they are con stitutionally unfitted for the sultry toils of the sugar plantations, and the recollection of the enormous out• lays incurred by their transportation in sufficient:num bers from the interior of the British portion of Hindostan to the West Indian Archipelago, renders it obvious that labourers must be sought elsewhere. In this dilemma the Noble. Secretary for the Colonies has devised a plan by which the necessities of immigration from Hindostan are obviated, and a terrible and final exorcism is pro nounced against the ensanguined demon of slavery. How far the latter consequence is calculated to en hance the glory and economise the strength of Great Britain, those will perceive who are familiar with the devastations caused among our seamen by the idio pathic fevers prevalent along the western coasts of Africa. By the reports not long since published re specting cur system of naval surveillance for the pre vention of the slave trade along those poisonous and deadly shores, it is demonstrated beyond denial that we have hitherto, in the earnestness of !nis i directed philanthropy, evoked upon the heads of our sailors a dismal amount of suffering and mortality, not merely without conducing to the reduction of slavery, but even to the deplorable increase of the agonies of the negro population. The project of the Government in reference to the plan of wholesale im migration to the West Indies, must, when effectively carried into operation, terminate the miseries re sulting from this surveillance, by terminating the ne cessity for its continuance. It is proposed that the inhabitants of Africa shall be conveyed to Jamaica, or wherever else their services may be required in the Archipelago, and that their immigration shall invariably be of this conditional character ;—first, that they shall continue free labourers throughout the period of their servitude, and secondly, that they shall only be transmitted across the Atlantic when such a course shall be in compliance with their own wishes. As a preliminary movement, her MAJESTY'S ship Growler has proceeded to the western coast of the African continent to treat with the population by means of delegates from British Guiana and Trinidad. These delegates, it must be observed, are peculiarly quali fied to open the road to the present scheme of free immigration, seeing that they are themselves la bourers returning homewards after the realisation of a comparative competence—a circumstance sufficierattly proved by the fact that 29 individuals amongst them had deposited in the hands of the Captain of the Growler no less an amount than 5711. 15s. 10d. accumulated out of their earnings. The proposition of the Go vernment, however, does not imply the immigration of negroes from any part of the western coast indis criminately, being, in an express manner, restricted to such localities as are not disgraced by the pro moters of the slave trade. And beyond this it is intended that the immigration shall be carried on under the superintendence of a Government agency. By such an arrangement the possibility of the recur rence of abuses will be prevented and adequate sup plies of Kroomen, and negroes from other quarters of Africa, will be conveyed to the hitherto unremu• nerative plantations of our colonial agriculturists. In suggesting and adventdring upon this scheme of the immigration of free labourers, the Legislature is in the most effectual manner preparing our colonial merchants and proprietors for that day which is rapidly approaching, when the discriminating duties will disappear, and when the principles of free trade will open to equal competition free-grown and slave grown sugar. The step is one of laudable audacity; and while it may for a while arouse the clamorous opposition of those who in their perverse judgment imagine that they perceive in it the revival of the ab horred system of slavery, we are satisfied that it will ultimately redound to the glory of the British em pire, by demonstrating the false economy of bondage ; that it will extricate our West Indian colonists from their present diversity of difficulties, and elevate them to an unparalleled prosperity ; and that it will finally tend to ensure the happiness of the black race through the medium of an Universal Emancipation The Earl of CL&RENDON, since his assumption of the Vice-royalty of Ireland, has earned for himself golden opinions from persons of all classes, creeds, and parties. His kindly disposition and conciliatory demeanour—qualities at all times of the utmost im portance, but absolutely indispensable in a Chief Governor at the present period—eminently qualify him as a fitting successor to the illustrious Marquis of NORMANDY in that exalted station —a nobleman who has justly been designated as " the backwoods man of a Liberal Administration in Ireland." The system which was then introduced with such difficulty, and in opposition to so many ancient prejudices and long cherished antipathies, is now steadily followed up. The people are sirown that they may rely on the justice and im partiality of the Government, persons are no longer selected for the most important offices, to discharge the duties of public prosecutors and local magis trates, because they may have evinced an unrelenting hostility to popular privileges and to liberal opinions. the administration of justice is beyond the reach even of suspicion itself. Ireland has now judges and magistrates well qualified for the offices they are selected to fill, and, still better, who possess the con fidence of the people, and officers of the Crown whose characters afford the best guarantee that they will not in any degree strain the laws to suit an exist ing purpose, or resort to undue means to obtain a verdict, and also juries fairly empanelled from the freeholders of the respective counties and cities, whose intelligence and integrity point them out as persons well fitted to hold the scales of justice with honesty and impartiality —not packed, but selected without reference to their religion or pelitics- These are important ameliorations, and the people must be satisfied that under an Executive by which such a system has been founded and steadily main tained, they will be, fairly dealt with, and that no unnecessary stringency or severity will be intro duced against them. It is not in these respects alone that the Earl of CLARENDON has proved himself to be a true friend to Ireland. He has taken a leading part in the pro motion of everything by which the national resources may be fully developed, the internal improvement of the country advanced, and employment afforded to the labouring population. His addresses and answers to the different deputations by which he has been ad dressed have been distinguished by a spirit of benig nity and genuine philanthropy beyond all praise. When obliged to negative the propositions, to reject the applications that have been made, he has done so in the most courteous manner, pointing out with clearness and lucidity the reasons that compel him to take such a course, and render it impossible to comply with the offered suggestions, and even when reproof or censure is conveyed, it is in a paternal tone and I spirit, perfectly free from bitterness or acerbity— more in sorrow than anger. The proclamation that has just been issued in the form of a circular to the Lieutenant of the dif ferent counties possesses these.l characteristics in a striking degree, and ataindigei.xlt, consequently, obeTdhelernecearethnano threats iefo in couchedm a n command fulminated g inr ea tset rr ngr of ee new aria ele at n sures of coercion, but there is a firmraodredtietnnramryinmatieoar; temperately expressed, to vindicate the the law, " to exercise all the power with w j h e i s c t (i he is invested, as well for the suppression of disturbance as for the prevention and detection of crime"—while the present frightful outrages and bloodshed by which certain lealities are polluted are deplored, their true origin is assigned, and the whole people are not libelled for the atrocities of a few sanguinary desperadoes. The burnings, the robberies, the assassinations that have t taken place are not occasioned by the poverty of the people, or the destitution that has unhappily prevailed during the past year, and which is still impending over the country, but by the acts of certain habitual desperadoes, who, outlawed for the crimes with which they are already stained, are prepared to perpe trate any new offence against the laws, reckless of the consequences. Gangs of these miscreants move from place to place, and the peace and tranquillity of any district they visit is immediately violated. The smaller farmers and cottiers are intimidated from opposing any re sistance to their operations, or withholding the assistance that may be required. Too many fearful examples testify the utter inefficiency of any protec tion that can be afforded by the Government against these bandits when once their vengeance or their animosity is excited. The wretched huts of the peasantry can afford no effectual resistance against the attacks of an armed gang, and any oppo sition to their dictates, or information as to their haunts or proceedings, are visited with the most un relenting barbarity, not only on the person himself, but on the innocent members of his family. Offences against their abominable code are vicariously ex piated. If the offender himself escapes from their brutality, a wife, a child, a parent, or a brother will be sacrificed as a victim in his place. By these horrible practices they have succeeded in intimidating the inhabitants of the districts and ter rifying them into yielding an apparent assistance to their persecutors, whose acts they would otherwise gladly oppose. " Nothing but a vigorous and ener getic co-operation of those whose properties and lives may be sacrificed at the hands of these offenders (says his Excellency) will enable the authorities to carry out successfully the endeavours to vindicate the law, and protect her MAJESTY'S peaceful subjects." This is undoubtedly true; and an earnest appeal is made for that co-operation, not only to the gentry, but to those classes by whom alone the system can ever be effectually eradicated, and who are perhaps more interested than any others in its extinction—" the well-disposed farmers and industrious peasantry who seek to earn their livelihood by honest labour." His Excellency expresses his firm determination, "by every means in his power, to suppress the wicked spirit which now disturbs the public peace, and retards the social improvement and the prosperity of the country. The constabulary will be increased in all disturbed districts, military detachments sta tioned wherever necessary, in aid of the civil autho rities, and efficient patrols maintained,—liberal re wards given for information leading to the arrest of offenders, and ample protection to all who come for ward and prosecute them, and no exertion spared in rigorously enforcing the law against those by whom it is violated.", These are rigorous means, and will no doubt have considerable effect in attaining the de sired object; but the course indicated in the last para graph of the proclamation will be by far more effec tual than any above-named, and if strictly followed will give the death blow to the system. The penalties of the law against all accessories are pointed out, against those who protect criminals against their pursuers—who afford them the means to escape— who aid in their disguise—who mislead those who may be in search of them—or who harbour offenders in their houses—and the law will be put in force, not only against the culprit himself, but against ' those who give him aid, shelter, or protection. This is the judicious course to be adopted, and not the less desirable because no extraordinary powers are demanded. The existing laws are alone resorted to, and, until they have been proved insufficient, no thing further should be required. By this procla mation Lord CLARENDON has added to his well. merited reputation. The Alba of Florence publishes a letter from Elba, from which the following is an extract :—" You know that at Porto Ferrajo there was a French ship of war stationed, but you do not know, probably, that the commander of this vessel had intended to give a ball. As soon as his intention became known to the inha bitants of the island, a public meeting was held on the Place, and it was unanimously resolved that the name, age, quality, and appearance of every lady who should accept his invitation should be registered in a book and published, and that their husbands, sweethearts, and cavaliers, should be considered as Codini. Perhaps you do not knew what a Codino is. I will tell .you ; a Codino is one who has the ideas of a past century, and who is invariably a butt for ridicule (a roccocco, in fact). As soon as the ladies heard of this resolution, which was adopted by the great majority of the islanders, they not only returned the invitations to the ball, but refused to visit the vessel. This circumstance will prove to you how ardent is the attachment of the inhabitants of the Island of Elba to GUIZOT." It is stated in a letter from Leghorn that some surprise and dissatisfaction has been expressed there at the Prince DE JoINVILLE not having, at his recent visit to Leghorn, gone to Florence, as formerly, to pay his respects to the GRAND DUKE. It was ru moured, however, that the KING of the FRENCH had declared his entire satisfaction at the incorporation of Lucca with Tuscany. Letters from Florence of the 4th inst. announce that on the previous evening the people made a mani festation in favour of King CHARLES ALBERT. An immense crowd congregated before the hotel of the Marquis DE CAnaaca, ' the Sardinian Minister, crying, " Viva CHARLES ALBERT, Pius IX., the independence of Italy, and the Commercial League." M. CARREGA presented himself at the balcony, and thanked the people, but having no Sardinian flag to hoist, he unfurled that of Tuscany amidst deafening cheers. The Alba states that the ten persons on whose heads a price had been set at Messina, had escaped on board an English vessel. A letter from Rome of the 2d says— " Nothing bas been decided upon as to the resig nation by Cardinal Ferretti of the office of Secretary of State. All good men are exerting themselves to induce the Cardinal to retract his determination. It is said this morning that he has been prevailed upon to remain in office until after the installation of the Deputies and the Municipality. It is also rumoured that the people of Rome are about to solicit his Emi nence not to retire at this moment. Cardinal Ferretti has too much patriotism not to yield to this appeal, not withstanding his distaste for business and his desire of repose. All hope of retaining him is not yet lost, and his resignation is not formally accepted. In all other respects Rome is perfectly tranquil. The resig nation, by N. Morandi, of the Governorship of Rome, is accepted. It is expected that changes will shortly be made in the officers of the Court of Rome. M. Morichini, Pro-Treasurer, is to go to Paris as N uncio, and lie replaced as Minister of Finance by Mgr. Rasconi, who will be succeeded as Maggior- Domo by Mgr. Corboli Busi. Mgr. Savelli is to be Governor of Rome." The Augsburg Gazette states, from Turin, that the Duke of MODENA has, in consequence of the agitation in his duchy, and the difficulty of obtaining posses sion of the territory which has been ceded to him, applied formally for the aid of Austria, but adds, that it will probably be refused, like a similar demand which was made by the ex-Duke of LUCCA. The Belvetie of the 9th gives the following account of the commencement of hostilities between the Swiss National troops and those of the Sonderbund. The latter, it appear; commenced the attack and were compelled to retreat into their own canton. " Hostilities commenced on the 4th with an attack upon Tesino, and consequently even before the Diet had issued its decree for execution. The canton of Uri had caused the passes over St. Gothard to be occupied. On news of this being received, a batta lion from Tesino assembled at Bellinzone. Artillery from Lucerne having joined the detachment from Uri, this small corps made an eruption into Upper Tesino, which Nuts without any troops, and which it hoped to revolutionise in the name of religion. But, at the moment, volunteers arrived from all sides, and forced the aggressors to retreat, leaving several of their men dead on the soil of Tesino. Among these were Major Arnold, of the Schwitz artillery, and Lieutenant Balthazar, of Lucerne, a nephew of M. Amrhyn, late Federal Chancellor. This unfortunate young man had only very recently returned from the University. There is this peculiar characteristic in this pretended war for the sake of religion, that the C b y a A th a o lne li t c it s nerv o af f rs t oi h om e n S ßo o ef n r d an e e r c h oa u ft n ht d hoel h ic a tch e a m nsat a yo d ns e —, th w e h ir o fi r r es t eemivnevde them ,O w u i r th po t l b ic e e m y u e r s z t l e e r s d o a f y their ea u g caught a t r certaina bi n s. messages from Lucerne to Berne, 'i give a Clue to active :collusions between which,individuals et b carryingappears, Sonderbund and the Conservative party in Berne, for we learn this morning that the advocate, M. Settler, a member of the Grand Council, and active patron of that violent journal the Volkszeitung, has been arrested. All communication with Lucerne is in terrupted. We only know that the most frightful terrorism continues to prevail over the Liberal party in that town, which is very numerous. The decree which declares the canton to be in a state of siege has produced novel and violent consequences in the Confederation. Under this decree every citizen is bound to obey the orders of the military authority. Those who resist or evade those order 3, those who attempt to paralyze the measures of the Government, either by word or deed, by writing or action, those who attempt to divert the soldiers from their duty, are to be immediately tried before a court-martial. The court-martial of the Seven Cantons is defini tively organized, and is composed of a deputy from each canton of the League, taken from the most violent partisans of the Sonderbund, under the presidency of the famous Siegwart Muller. It is to this supreme authority that all the powers of the allied cantons, and all their military operations, are made subject. All dispatches from Lucerne to the different cantons of the Sonderbund have the following heading in lithography : Vorort of the Seven Catholic Can tons.' We have consequently two Vororts in the Confederation." The And de la Constitution of Berne states that the number of muskets supplied from the French arsenals for the use of the Sonderbund is estimated at 25,000, and that 45 pieces of artillery have also been received from the same sources. The same journal contains an article addressed to the German press, in which it thanks the journalists of southern Germany for the sympathy that they have manifested in favour of the federal Government of Switzerland, and contrasts their generous sentiments with those of a different character expressed by the organs of the Austrian Cabinet. All the cantons of the Sonderbund have been blockaded since the day the declaration of war was made by the Diet. The markets of Zurich and Argovie, from which they have hitherto derived their supplies of provisions, are closed against them. They may, however, for the present obtain provisions from some of the Catholic vallies of the Grisons, and from the canton of - Valais, which communicates directly with Savoy and Piedmont, but as the winter ad vances the passes will be blocked up by snow ; and, deprived of this resource, they will probably be starved into a surrender. Several refugees from Lu cerne have joined the federal army. A letter from Bale of the Bth states that it was rumoured in that city that the troops of Zurich had on the previous day taken possession of Zug, after some smart skirmishing, in which they had obtained the advantage, and that after leaving a sufficient gar rison in Zug to hold the place, the main body of the Zurichers had marched on Lucerne, and had taken possession of all the towns and villages situated with out the lines of defence on the Reuss and the Emme. .1111.• Madrid journals of the 6th have arrived. The Gazette publishes a decree appointing General CORDOVA a Senator. Ros DE OLANo will, it is said, proceed to Lisbon as Ambassador. General FRANCISCO FULGIOSO is appointed Captain General of Burgos, in the room of General CAME, RINO. General Ataix has written a letter to the QUEEN, complaining of the violent and unconstitutional con duct of NARVAEZ in banishing him from Madrid, and demanding permission to return to the capital to fulfil his duties as a Senator. The QuEEn, it appears, had signified her desire to General ALAI% that he should present her with a list of a new Ministry, but NARVAEZ and CHRISTINA having heard of it, went in the night to the apartments of ISABELLA, and re enacting the brutalities of the night of the betrothal, the virtuous mother and the loyal subject coerced the unfortunate SOVEREIGN into giving a reluctant con sent to the banishment of her friends. The Afrancesados intend to banish SALAMANCA and EscosußA, and have already dispatched PAVIA to Catalonia. MADRID BOLqA, Nov. 6.—The Three per Cents. were done at 26f, at fifty days; the Five per Cents. at 15 for paper; the Debt without Interest, at 4i; and the Coupons at 11 for cash. • We have received the Paris papers of Thursday. The Ministers are severely handled in all the Op position papers for the bad bargain they made the previous day in concluding the loan. The National, after stating the terms on which the loan was nego tiated, says— " The world must be convinced that the Treasury was reduced to a deplorable condition when the Mi nister accepted such terms. Of two facts we must take one—either it was impossible to have obtained better terms, the adjudication being in accordance with our financial condition of the country (and in in that case nothing can excuse the Government which has reduced the nation to such a condition), or the loan has been contracted with Baron de Roths child by an inexcusable act of weakness or culpable complaisance under its real value." It then proceeds as follows to expose the juggling of the Ministers and the financiers : - • " To ascettain the real price of the loan, we must calculate the value, on the 22d a November, 1847, of a sum of 75f. 25c. payable by twenty-five unequal instalments, in conformity with the stipulated con ditions of the ordonnance of the 29th October last. On applying this common rule of payment we shall find that the integral payment will have becn made in a lapse of ten months and six days, reckoning from 22d November, 1847 ; and conse quently, counting each month at thirty days, ex tending to the 28th September, 1848. During this time the subscribers will recei ve i n t erest upon money which otf 2f. hey here 4 5e., not which h brings the, r ea l price; say, f or every 75f. 25 c., a sum of the loan down to 72f. 80c. This is not all. For every 72f. 80c. received, the State acknow ledges itself to be a debtor for 100 f.; therefore, in addition to the bonus of 2f. 45c. above mentioned, it pays a premium to its subscribers of 27f. 20c.; or, in other terms, on receiving 2 50,000,000 f. it acknow ledges itself to be indebted to the amount of 343,400,000 and some odd francs. But the eventual profits of the operation are not confined to this. Be tween this time and the end of two years, the period for the payment of the last instalment, the Three per Cents. will have reached the price they were worth twenty-five months back, or, as far as we recollect, 85f. Suppose at that moment th e pr i ce b e 80f. on l y , it is clear that the subscribers will gain upon every 72f. 80c. paid up a sum of 7f. 20c.; or upon the total of the loan 24,862,000 f. The bankers and their organs will exclaim against this, and present other calculations; but the above is the true one. This will appear clearly to all eyes, if th e rea l f ac t b e no t lost in a labyrinth of fallaci ous fi gures . If, i ns t ea d of making loans of fictitious capital, they were made of real capital—if, instead of inscribing an indeter minate amount of rentes for an unknown capital, the State were to say, ' We have need of 250,000,0001.; what rate of interest do yo u requ i re f or advancing it r the dealing would he un d erstoo d b y a ll th e world; the first comer would learn that the State borrowed money at three, f o u r , fi ve, or s i x per cent., as it might be, and th ere would b e no occasion to have resort to painful efforts to arrive at appreciations which always fail in precision. But this is exactly what is not wanted. They prefer confounding the question by surrounding it with clouds, in order to claim the right of disputing the calculations of those who endeavour to throw light into this obscurity. We have endeavoured to defeat these tactics; but whatever may be the result of our calculations, it remains established that at a moment when French Rentes are being negotiated at more than 77f., the Government has contracted its loan at 721. 80c. All the morality of the present adjudication lies in necessity of our dwelling any longer upon a fact of com paring th ese t wo fi gures. Th e y dispense with th e which M. Dumon must bear the responsibility." The Ministers themselves feel that some defence of their conduct is necessary, and accordingly the Conservateur of Thursday attempts an anticipatory reply to the foreseen attacks of the Opposition, which reply consists solely in the expression of a hope that the loan may leave profits in the hands which it passes through, and that having been contracted at so low a rate, " we have the certainty of having arrived at that precise point where there is only an upward movement to look for." It is said Admiral DE MACK AU, the late Minister of Marine, will succeed Count MORTIER as Ambassa dor to Turin.

The embarrassments which have accumulated over the West Indian planters and proprietors have latterly become so remarkable as to justify the adoption o , some extreme measures of assistance from the supreme Government. Something must be done im mediately towards the extrication of our colonial agriculturists from their present difficulties. Under any circumstances such an interference would hive been requisite, but its necessity has been immeasur ably increased by the passing of the free-trade enact ment. The abolition of the protective system will affect no class more stringently than the proprietors of our West India sugar plantations. A momentous experiment upon their fortunes is already commenced. The gradual diminution of the discriminating duties will be very speedily followed by their extinction, and the broad principles of freedom of commerce will thereupon find a new illustration in an unrestricted competition between the Muscovado produced by free labour and that produced by the labour of bondsmen. It would be as outrageous to deny that this experi ment is momentous, in as far as our West Indian colonists are concerned, as it would be to assert that it is one not required by the exigencies of natural justice. In applying the system of abolition of protection to colonial agriculture, as well as to the agriculture of the United Kingdom. the Legislature only obeyed the dictates of an equi table impartiality. In Endeavouring to place the sugar-growers of Jamaica and the contiguous islands upon an equality with those proprietors whose planta tions are cultivated by the hands of helots, the Le gislature will be only fulfilling one of its most para mount duties, a duty which should have been per formed immediately upon the declaration of the Emancipation Act. To place our colonial agriculturists in a position of equality with the agriculturists of those countries in wthehirch th e d ev i l i sh trade of s l avery i s not a b o li s h e d , e must be a com bi na ti on o f ac ti v ity an d pru dence. That ac ti v i ty, h owever, ' must i n no manner condu ce to the entailment of any expenditure upon the Mother Country —it must be rendered so far re munerative that the colonists themselves shall expe rience no di squ i etude et the demand of the paymet, by means of colonial taxation, what-ver expenses may be incurred i n the undertaking, That prud ence must in like man ner b e of such a character as to em power the Governme n t to adventure up on prehensive enterprise with out the g Bo e ra rr e ne e n o t n n i of any disastrous failure. A scheme hasecian recentlybeen for the propounded by the Noble Earl, the Secretary Colonial Department, which to our mind combines mb es in c an admirable proportion these characteristi cs of tivity and prudence , while its ultimate op eration must, as far as human reason can conjecture, tend to the ultimate restoration to prosperity of the pro prietors and merchants of our colonial possession s in the West Indian Archipelago. The scheme is explained in a dispatch penned by Earl GREY on the 30th ultimo, and transmitted from his official resi dence in Downing-street to his Excellency the Go vernor of Jamaica. After enlarging upon the benefits which must inevitably accrue to our colonial agri culturists from " the introduction of improved methods and implements of agriculture and processes of manufacture," and upon the especial advisability of fostering a better plan of education and industrial training for the negro labourers, the Noble Earl at , 4; "* . f 7 0 47 0 Z S THE SUN, LONDON, SATURDAY _IH; TENIN C+, NOVEMBER 18, 1847. MONEY and COMMERCIAL NEWS. CITY, QUART -c'T? 1 J THREE The sales of Cotton at Liverpool yesterday were 4,000 to 5.000 bales, and the market was steady at previous rates.—Shares were not quite so firm, and prices were rather lower, with a limited business doing. The Bank of England returns for last week show an improved state of affairs at that great establishment, but we could wish that the liabilities on account of nott s in circulation had been larger, and that the amount of securities had been augmented, because this would have shown liberality towards the mercantile community. We suspect, however, that notwithstanding its increased reserves of notes and coin, the Bank will find its profits diminishing ere long, unless the minimum rate of 8 per cent. be reduced, for money is becoming easier out of doors. The following are the main points in the re- turn : Notes issued now £22,426,530 Increase Rest, now Inciease 43,428 Public deposits now Increase 295,281 Other deposits now Decrease Seven day and other bills now 921,673 Decrease 9,662 Government Securities now 10,598,607 Decrease Other Securities now... 19,919,915 Decrease 4E9,982 Notes now .... Increase . . 853,345 Bullion now 8,729,551 Increase Active circulation now 436,305 Decrease.. A mercantile correspondent, who lives in the suburbs, addresses us upon the inconsistency of our Post office arrangements as follows : " Will any person conceive it probable or possible that letters can be transmitted through the Post office to Exeter (170 miles), and an answer received, sooner than to and from Holloway (three miles) ? But such is the fact. A letter put in at nine o'clock in the morning in any receiving house in the City, does not reach its desti nation, Holloway,' until three o'clock in the afternoon, six hours. An answer put in before five o'clock at Hol loway will not find its way to the City until eight o'clock the next morning, fifteen hours; and front the writing the letter to reading the answer, nearly twenty four hours elapse; whereas a letter to Exeter will travel the distance in four and a half hours, and allowing three hours for writing an answer, this will be received in London in four an d a half hours more, making alto gether twelve hours, just half the time it takes to write and to obtain an answer from Holloway I Credat Judaus 1 some may exclaim, but it is a little if not a great fact." " Nor is this a solitary instance. Many other places in the vicinity of the metropolis are similarly situated." The agents in town of the Bridport Bank have to-day intimated that they can no longer pay for that establish ment. A failure is reported at Amsterdam, and rumours are afloat of stoppages here. This is a very quiet day in the City, and we have not heard of any failures, at least of consequence, is the pro vincial departments. We have advice& from South Australia to-day some days later, in point of date, than those previouly obtained. We have not heard of any information of importance by this arrival. Again have the Funds advanced this morning. Con sols have reached 85k, but have since receded to 841 for the Account. The price for the 25th instant is now 85, both for Money and Time. Exchequer-bills are at 2 premium, and Bank Stock at The only bargain in the Foreign Market was in Rus sian at 1061 ; Spanish, Mexican, and the other Bonds remain much the same as yesterday. Railway Shares look a fraction better to-day. ONE CLOSING , RICES OF BRITISII FUNDS. O'CLOCK. PRICES Bank Stock lBB% 188 1 / 2 3 per Cent. Reduced Arms 83 4 3 / 4 14 83 1 / 2 3 per Cent.

IN RE BUTTERFIELD, A ItANKRUPT.- 4111)G I T. The LORD CHANCELLOR gave judgment to this case, which came before his LordshiPsome ur he since upon a special case from the decision et. Court of Review, reversing a judgment of Mr. ._1 1 ; missioner Holroyd, rejecting a proof of 6,000/. hY the widow, in her character of executrix, against estate of her son. According to the statement`' 8 00 judgments, tanadt "tVoirreto the special case, it appeared that the widow a nd s .b, of the testator carried on the business after his de!„ 3 , t he and ultimately the son became a bankrupt. - 1 - s .; l testator by his will declared that it should be law' for his widow to use the sum of 6,0001. in carol on the business as long as she should think fit, an the residue of his estate he gave to his widow, an after her death to her children. Upon the death a' the testator the widow took the stock in trail i , e at the value of 3, 0001 ., and she also t°° her son and co-executor into partnership with be, a and all money on account of the concern wee rid into the banker's hands, in the name of Butteru i e d , and Son ; the son becoming a banlqupt, the vv l " ° .; sought to prove for the 6,0001. aga i ns t the vit a l Mr. Commissioner Holroyd refused to allow the pry ° but the Chief Judge of the Court of Review (I ri f„ e ; Chancellor Knight Bruce) upon the case ee tn ","" h ;' before him reversed that judgment, and ordered t h e proof to be admitted, and from that decision the el/ 0 came before the Lord Chancellor in the nature of a appeal. - - - The LORD CHANCELLOR, after going 8- soin rte t length into the case, and citing the case of ex ? ti b i a Garland as the ground of his decision, stated , t o f clear opinion to be that the judgment of the Call'; iew was wrong; the order therefore, tir th t ° t ss of made by that Court must be discharged, an— Mr. Comm m is A to N ne v r . i s t E lr p o n y E tr s e ._ sto j r u e j c ) l o . usirr. this The LORD CHANCELLOR also gave judgmen t ` 11 „ 02 0 case, which was heard b e f ore hi m i n April last ' 6 4• motion to discharge tw o or d ers o f :the Vice-Chsf e the for England, one gran ti ng an i n j u nction, an he other ef t ordering th e comm itt a l o f th e d e fendant for h use breach of it. The plaintiff is the occupier of in Constitution-crescent, near the Windmih"^",oo Gravesend. The defendant is the lessee of a pori,_ , a of the shrubbery in the vicinity of the hill, whi ch It been converted into a place of public enlist!, ; under the name of the Tivoli Tea Gardens. -",-700 covenant in the lease to Thomas Smith, under w 7 .00. the defendant holds, it was stipulated that no erec lion should be made in the shrubbery except one house , to cottage, of an ornamental character; and that leg be built in a place known by the name of the ded The defendant, after he obtained possession , p rop _es to erect a building, which the plaintiff un derstood v uid to be used as a brewery, and conceiving tha t it we an be an injury to his property, he filed the injunction, and obtained it from the Vice-Chnneel.l on the 28th of July. The defendant CO that the injunction applied solely to the erentrhe of a brewery, proceeded, notwithstanding 1. ! h order of the Court, to finish the building, , vv "., l , e c he alleged to be intended for a dwelling-a°l' and the plaintiff then applied for an order to mit him for breach of the injunction. That codere was granted on the ground that the erection, o°t' whatever Ind, or for whatever purpose, was 11 0 , in the Dell, but in the pleasure ground of the g arde . n Xll for.ior The discharge of these two orders was the °bide° of the motion on which his Lordship now gave- ll i g ; ment. His Lordship was clearly of opinion that t. 4 injunction ought to stand, but that it should be var l 7 by omitting the words "ornamental rather than othern. to wise to the surrounding property." With res r -ct ht the order for committal, his Lordship thought it ong_ . to be discharged, thinking that the evidence witk r e !. spect to the breach of the injunction was not sufficiass to justify the Court in committing the party. 59% 551 A 28', 494 41 81% 84 1 ,4 Ph 25:Y, 11% 4 28% 14% 10► 33 i 4 13 1 4 8% 6% 43 / 4 5% 8 - 1% 3 1 f
