As much misconception appears to prevail re specting the approaching trial of the authorities o the late Royal British Bank, it may be conve nient, upon the present occasion, to state the nature of the a roceed ngs wh'cli have been taken against those persons. In the first place, it may be observed that until the conclusion of the exa minations in Bankruptcy the law officers of the Crown were not in the slightest degree b mud to n - rtice any irregular or criminal apt which might have been committed by the officers of th e b ink. The statute of the Queen (7 and 8 Vic., cap. 111) pro vides that the Commi.sioner in Bankruptcy sha ll in such cases report the result of the exami nation to the Board of Trade, and that the Board of Trade shall then, if it think proper, place all the papers beco-e the Attorney-General, with a vies to the institution of a criminal prosecul ion. Without wait ing for the pro Ceases of report and formal reference, the Attorney-General, upon reading the deposi tions—copies of which had been forwarded to him by Mr. Lin klater. the able solicitor for the assignees —elected to proceed by way of criminal informa tion, and not by way of indictment. Two very obvious and sufficient reasons may bo stated in sup port of the course which the hon. and learned gentleman adopted. It is very wel known that the most competent law.) ers entertain very serkus doubts whether the statute or comm - in law can reach the offences, with which the offices of the bank have been c'iarged. Many nice and difficult points will have to be argued ; such, for instance, as these—whether the comp ulsor y disclosure made in Bankruptcy does not exempt the persons who male it from criminal responsibility, or whether the false statements held out to the public of the affairs of the bank amount legally to the offence of conspiracy to defraud. The effeet of filing aA iuforenation in this case is that these grave and important que-tiens will ba tried, heard, and determined, not in the Central Criminal Court, at the preliminary investigation by a grand jury, but by the Court of Queen's Bench, that great tribunal which has the control of all the inferior common law courts ; and we may add that, if the par ies desire it, there may be "a trial at bar," where, instead of tire Lord Chief Justice alone,-all the Judges of the Court may takopart in the trial And decision of the ewe. Considering the amount of melancholy interest and attention which the failure of the Royal British Bank has occasioned—consi dering also, that the public mind must necessarily be prejudiced to some extent against persons who, whether intentionally or unintentionally, have been the means of ruining thousands, we say that the Attorney-General exercised not only a wise but a humane discretion when be determined to submit the decision of this most important case to a tribunal so dignified, and in every way so competent, as the Court of Queen's Bench. We are inclined to think that the accused, if found gu'lty at all, will be con victed of the common law misdemeanour of having disobeyed the provisiona of an Act of Parliament — for having made false returns of the amount of paid-up capital, and other fraudulent returns to the Board of Trade. But, in every point of view, the argument must be too teehnic.il, and too legal in its nature, for the intellectual calibre of an ordinary petty jury, and -Feref , ra we bdieve that the course of public justice will be lar e ely advanced and pro moted by the delay which has taken place, and by the selection of the Court of Queen's Bench for the eternity. teal of this prosecution in place of the Central Cri minal Court. To show that no efforts will be spar, d to bring the accused to justice, we may mention that, on behalf of the prosecution, the following eminent counsel have been retained—the Attorney- Guieral, the Solicitor-Genera!, Sir -Frederick Thesiger, Mr. Sergeant Ballantyne, Mr. Welby. and Mr. J. Brown• We understand, al o, that the ex-member for Tewkesbury, Mr. Humphrey Brown, will be defended by Mr. Hugh Hill, and by Mr. Roxburgh, of the Chancery bar. This statement may not be out of place at present, especially as the affairs of two other insolvent com panies—the Royal Surrey Gardens and the Eastern and Western Banking Corporation—in connection ith the management of which similar charges of profligate and criminal mismanagement have been made are about to undergo judicial investigation. The authorities of the Royal Br,tish Bank may rest satisfied that they will have a fair, honest, and im partial trial ; and whatever the result may be— whether the existing law fails in reaching them, or whether it succeeds In visiting them with condign and deserved punishment•—the public may equally rest satisfied with the assurance that, under the Fraudulent Trustee s' Act of last session, all possible doubt as to the criminality of such practices has for the future been happily and completely removed.— Morning Post. Prom Alexandria, Sept. 1, we learn that Generals Windham, Dupuis, and Rose, appointed to commands in the English army in India, had embarked at Suez in one of the Peninsular and Oriental Company's steamers for Calcutta. SUICIDE ON A GENTLEMAN IN THE ClTY.—Last night, shortly before 10 o'clock, considerable excitement was created in consequence of a most determined act of sell. destruction committed by a gentleman unknown, who shot himself through the head close to the railings of St. Philip's Church, London Hospital. The deceased was Carried round to the front of the hospital and placed in the surgery, where Mr. Francis 0 een, the h }use sur geon, examined the deceased, and pronounced life ex tinct. The name of " Bell" was marked on the linen of the individual, who is about 35 years of age, rather robust and dark hair. In his pockets were found 15s in silver, and a few trifling articles—a gold watch and gold chain, t eo rings and a penknife. THE CIVIL SERVlCE.—War.llepartment.--Mr. C. H. Rumbold, Military Store Clerk let class, Mauritius, has been appointed to Pembroke. Mr. Geo. Arber, Military Store Clerk 2d class, P mbroke, has been a pp ointed to the Mauritius. Committee of Council on Education. — Mr. Frank Marshall and Mr. Henry Cullum have been appointed Clerks, after a competitive examination. The Admiralty.—There are six vacancies for established Clerkships at present in the S o merset -house branch, which will be filled by Extra Clerks here and at the Dock and Victualling-yards after a competitive exami nation. A Clerkehip in the Secretary's office has become vacant, vice Burton, superannuated. Mr. P. J. Le Seur has been appointed a Clerk in the office of Inspector- General of Imports and Exports, in London. Mr. W. R. Ryan has been promoled from Tide-surveyor Fourth Class to be Landingvt a . ter Sixth Class in London. Mr. E. J. Armstrong has been promoted from Fourth to Third Class Clerk in the office of the Inspector-General of Imports and Exports, London. Mr. J. H. Stephen son has been promoted from Fifth to Fourth Class Cle k in the office of Inspector-Generei of Imports and Ex ports, London. Sierra Leone.—The office of Queen's Advocate has become vacant by the death of Mr. Collett.—Civil Service Gazette CENTRAL AFRICA.—An official despatch has been received at the Foreign-office from her Majesty's Consul at Tripoli, throwing some doubt on the reported death of Dr. Vogel. The courier who bad tests despatched in April last for the frontier of Wadai, to obtain, if pos sible, some tidings of the fate of this scientific traveller, having returned to Murzek, brings with him also a letter from the Sheikh of Berge. From the report of some people composing a small caravan that had reached Borgu from Wadai it appears that Dr. Vogel, after having successively visited several places, had reached Andra, whence he was summoned toWara, the capital of Wadai, by the Sultan, by whom he bad been some time detained, but was supposed to be preparing for his de parture to Darfur. Upon the receipt of this report the Sultan of Borgu, who had zealously interested himself in the matter, at once sent off two couriers to Wadai, both of whom had returned with reports cor roboratin g the story of the caravan people. Respecting the dea t h. of the gallant Maguire, no doubt appears , unfortu n ate l y , to be entertained •, arid the favourable report of the existence of poor Vogel is - still so . much a matter of uncertainty that, should no positive tidings of his fate be received by the large caravan, which was daily expected at Murzuk, other couriers will be immediately hastened off to obtain, if possible, written evidence of his fate. To the friends of Dr. Vogel it will be a groat consolation to know that Lord Clarendon is thus making every effort to ascertain his fate, and, should he be held in captivity, to devise means for his redemption. t A DYE SIGIIT AND HEARING— SPECTACLES POWERFUL TELESCOPES OPERA, RACE, AND PERSPECTIVE GLASSES.—S, and B.

EXECUTION OF CAPTAIN ROGERS. (By ELECTRIC TELEGRAFII.) LIVERPOOL, SATURDAY. Captain Rogers, late of the ship Martha and Jane, who was at the last assizes found guilty of the murder of one of his crew, named Andrew Rose, was publicly exe :uted this day in front of the county gaol at Kirk `dale. The wife of the captain bad her la , t interview with the culprit yesterday. She was accompanied by three of her children—the three oldest, two boy; and a girl. Rogers was a native of Sunderland,' and aiJout 35 years of age. He was well known in Liverpool. At an early hour t',is morning the chaplain of the gaol, the Rev. Mr. Appleton, visited the wretched man and remained with him until the arrival of the hour fixed for the execution. At a few minutes before 12 the governor, Mr. Gibbs, with the other officials, entered the cell, and the necessary prelim;naries having been per formed, the convict was conducted to the scaffold, where Calcraft, the London executioner, carried the sentence of the law into effect. There was an immense number of people present. The usual ceremonies having been g one through, the bolt was withdrawn anethe unhappy man was launched into THE B.

(From A dventures among tite Mormons.) Great Salt Lake Valley is situate in that portion of the American continent called. Utah territory ; bounded on the north by Oregon ; east by No- braska, Kansas, and New Mexico, from which it is separated by the Rocky Mountains ; south by New Mexico ; and west by California. The distance from here is :—Liverpool to New Orleans, 5,000 miles ; New Orleinslo St. Louis, 1,173 miles • St. Louis to Winter Quarters, 632 miles ; from iVinter Quar ters to Salt Lske Oily, 1,035 miles ; total, 7,840 miles. Utah Territoryis divided into fourteen coun ties. In length from east to west, it is 650 mils ; breadth from north to south, 350 ; urea, 225,000. square miles. The population is not known, the saints having particular reasons to make it appear fabulously large. Some of the elders say it is 150,000, others, 160,000, while in the " Overland Route," published by F. D. Ricbards, it is stated at from 40,000 to 60,000. The valley is 4,000 feet above the level of the sea, surrounded by mountains, many of them eternally covered with snow. There is no rain or water for irrigation pur poses, except what comes down from the mountains, chiefly melted snow, which makes successful agriculture an impossibility. FlO.ll its great elevation and pure bracing atmosphere, we should imagine Salt Lake to be the healthiest region in the world; but quite the reverse is the ease. Sickeeis is very common and mortally great. This is supposed to be due, in a great measure to the abundance of alkaline salts, or salaratu., in the soil, which shows itself in a white of on the surface of the ground, covering whole acres with the appearance of a heavy white frost. Many of the streams ara so strongly impregnated with it as to make it dangfrous for cattle to drink from them. It not only affects health, but destroys ve g etation, mining whole fields of corn in a single night. Salt Lake Valley possesses one invaluable property to the Mormon leaders, and that is isolati m. Herein lies the difficulty of persons returning when once there. It is 1,000 miles from the States, and 600 from California, through a country of hos tile Indians, over unbridged rivers, precipitous rocks, and barren plains. One-half of the year the inhabitants of Utah are entirely bound up, for the only entrances—the kanyons (canons) and ravines aro filled with snow, rendering egress and ingress alike impossible. The Government is entirely in the hands of the prophet and his family con- noxious. No other governors can be tolerated among t:iena unless protected by an armed force. The Hon. Fairy E. Brocchus and others were sent by the Federal Government to take part in the go vernment of Utah, but they found their services unnecessary, themselves insulted, and their lives iu danger. Polygamy is rampant, the authorities having from 10 to 120 wives each. Marriage is a very slight contract with than), as they may be di vorced at any time on payment of a small sum to the prophet, who makes it his business to encourage his own trade. There are girls of 15 in the valley who have been married three or four times. .Many of the auth )rit ies marry their own sisters and daughters, the object being to keep the authority in their own fami lies or hands. By the time a female reaches 25 years she is an old woman. En large harems, as in the ca•e of Brigham, Parley, & - c., the women work, the men are the overseers. It is found good policy to separate the women. One portion lives on one portion of the estate, and another portion else where. When the soldiers and-r Colonel Steptoe passed through the valley in 1855, over 100 of the Moi mon women begged of them to take them to California. They took a large number, some of them the wives of the apostles, but many of them they had to leave behind on account of the scarcity, of provisions. The elders made a dreadful noise about it. The post-office is in the hands of Brigham and his confederates, so that he knows the mind of every letter-writer there. He was heard to say to the congregation at the beginning o f last year, " The, e are many of you w ho have written complaining letters to England . I know youlal I Did you think I'd let them g o ? I have nearly waggon lead full of them behind myhotsiee " Jour nal is the way he gets his revelations. A . _ t t i of Discourses, vol. iii., he says, "I _Know ye not that I have my i reads strung through all the ter ritory so that I know what each man is doing 1" Each faithful saint is required to sign a deed of consecration, whereby he makes over to the church for ever his houses, land, wives, children, and everything he possesses, so that when he leaves-he leaves alone. His effects are church pro perty. salt Lake Valley is divided into wards, over ea ch of which is placed a bishop, whos e council forms a court ofjustice. The character of the people is what might be expected. Heber C. Kimball thus speaks of the saints :—'"lhere are many of you here who would cut my thr)at and Brigham's too, if you dare." Brigham says "Rake all hell with a small toothcomb, and you cannot find greater devils than the elders in this city." Of the bishops he s a y s :--cc You old grey-headed know, nothings, you are doted ; you are, shall I say, hard :lens ? No ; you are poor old, so ft-shell fogies, that a few pounds of sugar or tea will buy Journal, vol. iii. , p. 241. They live in worrying each other. NEY MARKET AND COMMERCIAL INTELLIGENCE. CITY, Two o'CLocK, Accounts from Liverpool state that the Cotton Market yesterday cicoed firmly, and prices were well maintainer:.` The sales 'were estimated at 12 ,000 bales, 5,000 of which were taken for ex- Port and on speculation. The Railway Share Market closed without animation, at previous rat es. , The Bank of England return, made up for the week ending:the sth inst., is decidedly less satis factory than was anticipated, and the decline in the bullion, although small, when an increase was ex- Pected, has naturally caused some disappointment. This movement is to be attributed to the remittances Made to the agricultural districts, and to other dis bursements usual at this time of the year, but un less a large arrival from Australia soon takes place, It is very likely that a further reduction will ensue. Another unfavourable feature is the addi trim to the Stock and other Securities, which in Consequence of the payments of the 4th of the Month, it was thought would have diminished. It 1 . 8 evident that there has been considerable pressure for money ; but at the same time there is an in crease on the reserve of notes. The private deposits have declined, but this is partly explained by the large increase in the amount standing to the credit of the Government. The Rest has advanced to a Point that will enable the Directors to pay to the Proprietors of Bank Stock si, if not 6 per cent. The principal items, and the changes they present, are as subjoined : Active Circulation Decrease . AP • 77,335 Bullion .. 11,491,313 • Decrease Rest Increase Public Deposits increase Other Deposits - Decrease Seven-Day and other Bills 771,332 Decrease Government Securities Decrease ,990 Other Securities Increase Notes unemployed Increase The official return of the exports of precious Metals from the port of London for the week end ing Thursday last is as follows : Gold Coin ... Boulogne Belgium ~ Bars ... Belgium 9 ... Boulogne Silver Coin ... Boaogne - The demand for money continues active, and ' 4 ll rates are still charged for accommolation. Rather more firmness has been visible iu the market for English Securities to-day, notwith ataniing the Bank return, which is considered dis ecluraging. The speculators still wait patie ntl y for 'Later advices from India, but there is an absence of t hose unfavourable rumours which are usually eir- Clllated prior to the arrival of the overland mail. Consols have been 90.1 1 2 - for money, and 90/ for 'Ceount. Exchequer Bills are still depressed at about ls. to 4s. discount.

In acknowledging the toast of " County Mem bers," at the meeting of the Thame Agricultural Society, on Thursday, the Right Hen. Mr. Henley said, speaking of the Indian revolt : " Whatever cause of complaint against our rule tht re may have been, it is impossible to suppose that there was any real connection bet ween it and what has taken place. An army of 80,000 or 100,000 men, without notice, without grievance, without rhyme or reason, have turned against those whose salt they have eaten, whose pay they have taken, and in the 'nest treacherous man ner have not only murdered their officers, whom they were in duty bound to protect, but have either in their own persons wreaked, or have permitted others more wicked than themselves to wreak, the most horrid bar barities on women and children, before the very eyes of those most nearly connected with them, who were spared from butchery only long enough to see thwe most dear to them ill-treatad and butchered, and ware then destroyed themselves. I believe that history does not furnish so terrible an example of what man is capable of be coming when once he bursts the bonds of decency and forbearance. Now for all this there must be a day of reckoning. (Cheers.) They are English men, and English women, and English children who have been thus used ; and it is not in the nature of English. men to allow those dear to them to be treated in this manner without exacting a terrible :submit: (Cheers.) If the 20,000 or 40,000 men who have been sent out to set tnis matter straight are not sufficient, I feel sure there will not be wanting 100,000 men te rectify this terrible and grievous wrong. It is a metier which sets aside all social questions for a time. We have a mighty wrong to redress. But we must not be impa tient in this matter. I believe our best chance of the mutiny being put down is that these black vagabonds should continue to herd together in Den , . I call them vagabonds, for the first thing they did was to throw open the gaols and let loose all the thieves and cut throats they could find. In all revolutions you find that if men are not honest the first thing they du is to let loose others who are worse than themselves. Honest men do not want such help as that. Now if these fellows are all banded together in that city of Delhi, I hope they will stay there till October or November, when our reinforcements will arrive in the country, when they will be like rats in a trap, and a good account will be given of them. If by some mistake we were to march in at one side and these blackguards match out at the other, we shall have a great deal more trouhle to catch them. Therefore, instead of regretting that we have not yet accounts o' this city being taken, I believe it will be better to let the thing come to a head. My experience in killing all sorts of vermin is that it is much better to get then, into a corner than to hunt them all over the field. I be lieve our permanent chances of success would not have been so great if the city had been taken, and therefore there is nothing to be disappointed about, great as the crisis is. We have had greater struggles than this before now. It is not wise to say it is not a great evil, to be grappled with and overcome, but if I know anything of the spirit of my countrymen, it is precisely when difficulties are to be overcome that you find out what Englishmen are. (Cheers.) In prosperous times nobody would believe how Englishmen, when the hour of trial conies, will throw aside all differences, and, seeing what is to be done, will set shoulder to shoulder, and hang tcget'er to do it. (Cheers.) It is just 100 years ago since a few of our countrymen won this empire, and now, with our power so much increased all over the world, with the means of communication three Ones as rapid as they were, I will not believe but that we cannot only con quer again, but keep it with the utun et posoible safety.

NI - NATI - 02 OF LE,l)l?tf (Front► the Eeigian, National.) When we discussed the substance of the judg ment pronounced by the Cour Imperiale of Paris on this matter yesterday, we had not the decree itself before us. To-day we have read this docu ment which will ever stand as a monument of falsehood and iniquity. The grounds on which the condemnation of Ledru Belau particularly is based, are without precedent in the annals of judicature throughout the whole cieelised world. Never was so :serious an accusation founded on such a mere pin point. One ne d not be a lawyer to under stand and affirm so much. The charges are con tained in a few lines. We extract them from the decree, itself iniquitous frcm begitining to end, but which we neglect at present for the other portions : " Considering that Ledru Rollin, who had pre viously in 1853 caused 300 francs to be sent to a person named Kelsch, who has admitted having at that time entertained the project of attempting the life of the Emperor, was present in Mazz nt's resi dence at the time when Bart dotti was first brought there, that he took part in the discuesicni which arose as to the times when the Emperor went out ; " That his presence at a conference essentially secret reveals the motive which led him there, and his participation in the conspiracy ' • " That Leda' Rollin should have provided Bartolotti and Grilli with the funds for their journey from London to Paris." What ! You bring against an accused patty a fact foreign to the trial revealed by an informer and a calumuiato-, and that without proof, without jus titication, without confirmation; a fact, too, on ac count of which no proceedings have been instituted against the accused, and you consider this fact 'as certain and proved Is not such a course the height of absurdity ? Is it to be enough for any iudividual to. CDMO and say, "Four years ago such and such an exile made a proposition to me to kill the Emperor," to enable you to quote that declara tion in a judgment as a charge against that exile, and make it an element' of condemnation against h:m _ _ _ But to continue : the decree dares to declare that Ledru- Rollin took part in the discussion between two of his co-accused, although it appears from the declaration of the solitary informer who makes the charge ' that be never said a word, not one single word, during the conversation; and that he left immediately ; and although, moreover, this eussion necessarily took place in Italian, Bettolotti not understanding a syllable of French, as was abundantly proved on the trial. But why argue the point ? It was not even established that t e person referred to by the informer was Ledru Rol lin at all. He pronounced the name in four or five different ways. Is this enough ? Let U 3 go further, however. His presence at the conversation reveals, you say, his participation in the conspiracy. Strange and audacious conclusion. What, a third party happens to be in a house where two indivi duals—supposing for a moment the meeting to be proved—are plotting any ill deed whatsoever, this third party does 1104 utter one word, does not join in the converaatiou, is ignorant of the matter at issue, and even of the language in which the discussion is carried on, and yet you con clude that he is a participator in the transaction. Truly, with such a system of interpretation and deduction, he most innocent citizen in France is not secure from one day to another against R sen tence of transportation. Is it not monstrous What follows is not less so : " Considering," says the decree, " that Ledru Rollin should have provided," &c. How ? "Should have 1" This is only an hypothesis and a presump tion. You do not venture even to affirm the fact. You do not dare to say he did furnish the funds, but that he should have done so, and on that you condemn him. Such an expression which might be explainable in an indictment is horrible in a decree of condemnation which ought to rest solely on precise, proved, and convicted facts. " Ledru Rollin should have furnished the funds." This phrase will remain as an eternal disgrace to the magistrates who have dared to employ it, and insert it in a decree. What is the result of all this ? Nothing, abso lutely nothing. The court has merely and simply registered these declarations and allegations of the public ministers, and pronounced judgment—that is, it has condemned. Even before the judgment, after the proceedings of the public explanations of Ledru Rollin, we said. that the decision to follow would be a dead letter iu the eyes of every sincere and honest man. We repeat it more energetically still, after reading this decree, public feeling has already trampled it under foot as an empty act of hatred, of vengeance, of falsehood, and of iniquity.
