WILLIAMS, STItUTT, and GALSWORTHY, 19, Ely-place. • LITERATURF.:. VICTORIA AND HER PEOPLE. Saunders and Otley, London, 1840. The chief recommendation of this outburst of poesy is the spirit of loyalty that pervades it. In every other respect it is a very grotesque affair, and is only to he dis tinguished from prose by the circumstance of every line being printed in capital letters. The poem professes to he of a dramatic character, and commences with a set speech addressed by the People to Victoria; in the course of which, alter expressing their desire that the Queen may live for ever, and giving it as their fixed opinion that it is perfectly useless " to counsel such an one as thou 1" the grateful and affectionate People proceed to exhort her Majesty as follows : " Be loyal to your God, and then shall all As loyal be to thee as thou to him. Fear nothing, but forgetting to fear God, And then no cause to fear shall come from matt For man shall fear to vex thy godly rule." This must be very encouraging to the Queen, who is still further assured that " If 'mong the million honest hearts and true, A heart or two less loyal should be found, We'll bid 'em pass to realms the Godless rule, Where Discontent may find her proper food, Where none can be obedient but the bad, Where none can be rebellious but the good." Having but very imperfect notions on the subject of geography, we cannot undertake to say in what lati tude or longitude lies the " penal settlement" to which the author would banish the disloyal. We are not, however, without a dim suspicion that by the words, " realms the Godless rule," he means that mysterious, subterranean kingdom, where so many kings and priests are to be found after death, and—as a matter of course —all lawyers ! If so, we cannot but think that he is rather too hard upon the disloyal. Seven years' trans portation would surely be quite severe enough punish ment, without consigning them for ever to the Devil. Having exhausted his stock of benedictions on the Queen, the poet next proceeds to bless Prince Albert, which he does in this highly imaginative style : " blessing first Victoria and her reign, Now let us bless the partner of her da, s : Thou favoured one of all the sons of men, For Kings, and sons of Kings, yea, Emperors Shall veil their honours, now, to envy thine— Rejoice, oh, Albert I happy Prince, rejoice 1" Of course, her Majesty cannot do less than acknow ledge this compliment ; and accordingly, when the People have concluded their speech, she thus replies to them : CONTRACT FOR PAPER FOR PARLIAMENTARY PRINTING.--15,000 REAMS. STATIONERY OFFICE, MARCH 7, 1640. THE COMPTROLLER of HER MA JESTY'S STATIONERY OFFICE is ready to re ceive TENDERS for PAPER required for Parliamentary Printing.

Address (post paid) to E. W., N•iessrs. Clarke and Lewis, Newspaper and Advertisement Agents, Crown-court, Thread needle-street. " Thanks—thahks ; and be you sure, the band I wave, To welcome and to greet each Briton hero ; My own, my true, my loyal, and my brave ! With British wrongs shall never stained appear. Thanks—thanks; and, be sure, Victoria first Must bless her people ere their Queen be blessed." This is handsome enough, so far as it Foes ; but we Should have been better pleased if, instead of indulging in courteous generalities, the author had made her Majesty express her intention to take off a tax or two —say the Malt Duty, for instance—which would have had a very agreeable effect, and greatly elevated the poetical character of the Royal Speech ; for, as the Utilit ar i ans j ust l y o b serve, there is nothing like mixing up business with poetry, as has bee . n so successfully done in the case of that spirited lyr" Thirty days hath September." To resume : Immediately her Majesty has finished her oration, the People sing a song, whereupon Victoria, resolved not to be outdone in politeness, sings another ; and the poem concludes with these touching words, which are printed in italics, in order that the reader may be impressed with a becoming sense of their importance : " Here the Queen retires, and the People once more shout, ' Victoria, live for ever ! God save the Queen!'" In addition to the exuberant loyalty that breathes through this poem—for such, we suppose, we must call it—it is remarkable, also, for its exceeding piety, which passes even that of a Bishop ; but alas, to be pious is one thing, to be poeti cal another ; and this the author should have borne in mind, before he ventured upon the perilous task of committing his thoughts to print. LONDON AND WESTMINSTER REVIEW. LXV. Hooper, London, 1840. For the last ten or twenty years of his life, few au thors of the day were seldomer heard of than Cole ridge ; but now that he has passed from among us, there really seems to be no end to the " Io Penns" that are chaunted in his hononr. Mr. Heraud led the way by his public Lecture at the Russell Institu tion ; then followed the Quarterly Review ; then Barry Cornwall, De Quincey, Hartley Coleridge, and Gill man, with their respective Reminiscences ; and now comes the London and Westminster Review, with the sweeping assertion that " Bentham excepted, no En glishman of recent date has left his impress so deeply in the opini,ins and mental tendencies of those among us who attempt to enlighten their practice by philossphieal meditation, as Coleridge." This is boldly said, but as. suredly there is little foundation for it. What additions to our philosophical stores has the author of Christabel made ? What new lights has he suggested ? What comprehensive work calculated to mould, modify, and leave a durable impress on the age, owns him as its author ? That he has put forth many ingenious specula tions ; hinted many subtle—and not a few fantastic— thoughts, we readily admit ; but this is the amount of the praise to which he is entitled as a philosopher. What is his " Friend" but a rambling series of dreamy, metaphysical essays without aim or object, vague and wordy, where the author's meaning glimmers dimly through a cloud of transcendental jargon ? What his " Biographia Literari a" but a cumbrous apology—we except the purely critical portions—for a sort of philo sophical system which he intended one time or other to write, but never did write ? The truth is, Coleridge was a man of fine capacity, but of no steadiness of pur pose —no fixed, resolute habits of thought. He was everything by turas, and nothing long ; and possessed every sense, but common sense. His genius was first rate, but, from his ignorance of the means of practically applying it, became useless to himself and to the world. Paley, who possessed not half his knowledge, and not one-tenth part of his capacity, has yet left a philosophical reputation that will endure, when Coleridge —except as a poet—will be forgotten. We have alluded to the latter's fine natural capacity. He had one of the highest and rarest order. His imagination was such as Spencer only has surpassed ; his critical faculties were acute, graceful, and profound—his remarks on Shakspeare, in particular, are the finest in the language ; and he ac cumulated knowledge almost without effort, and, as it would seem, by intuition. To the sur prising extent and fertility of his conversational powers all the most illustrious men of his time have borne willing testimony ; and Lamb, Hazlitt, and Byron —acute judges—have left it on record that he was the only one they ever met, who answered to their idea of a man of genius. Yet who talks of Coleridge now—who ever thinks of him—save as the author of the " Ancient Mariner ;" of " Genevieve"—a poem wherein the delicacy and spiritual refinement of the passion of Love are blended with its more material instincts, with a felicity to which we may vainly seek elsewhere a parallel—and of the noble translation, or rather paraphrase, of Schiller's " Wallenstein ?" As for Coleridge's philosophy, the utmost praise we can accord him is that of h av i ng f urn i s h e d stray t h oughts and suggestions for the guidance of some future philo sopher. So much for a man who might have topped all his contemporaries, and been one of the shining lights of the age, had he taken common sense and perseverance to his aid, and allowed his genius fair play, instead of engulphing it in the muddy quicksands of German Transcendentalism—a fine sounding word, but which, translated into the vernacular, means neither more nor less than Humbuss " Lockhart's S panish Ballads" is a notice of a new edition that has lately appeared, of a delightful little vo lume of translations from the Spanish, by the editor of th e " Quarterly Review." In this notice there are some curious details respecting the rise and progress of ballad literature in the Peninsula. " Demosthenes" is an in genious and elaborate essay on the character of the great Greek orator, and is prefaced by several sound remarks on the subject of biography, in the course of which the Reviewer says :—" for the man himself, biogra phers are but too apt to impose on us the outward form of the man—his comings here and goings there—his speeches and performances—his failures and successes. Now all these things, it is clear, are but consequences—denotements of a foregone conclusion— mere outward effects, for the most part, of au inward spirit. The spirit, then, is the thing. We would know his propensities, his conceptions, his plans ; his motive force, his springs of action." In the graphic pages of Boswell, we meet with most of these biographical requi sites, but in no other work of the kind that we remem ber to have read. Alluding to the character of Demosthenes's eloquence, the Reviewer justly observes : "He offers nothing to the judgment but sound, strong food. And this, children on the one hand, and men of depraved palates on the other, cannot away with. He has his mark before him, and hi s eyes are always fixed on it, and never on anything else. He feels the essential dignity of his subject ; h e k nows its sterling worth ; and he disdains to trick it out with 1 trinkets. He marches right up to the position of bis antagonist, and never pauses a pom ,, ot, our looks to the right or left, mail rocs ,:as demolished it."

The extraordinary progress which the Australasian Colonies have made within the last few years, the continued flow of emi gration towards them, together with the high value of money there, call for an increased number of establishments of this de scription, and the prosperous condition of the Baas already hi operation is a sufficient guarantee that under prudent manage ment this Investment must prove a must profitable and secure one to the Shareholders, as high rates of interest are obtained with perfect security in a country where, from well ascertained data, Capital is improving at rates varying from 50 to 75 per cent. per annum.

Henry Carmichael's Pamphlet on New South Wales, wherein he observes—" There are at present in Sydney three Joint Stock Banking Companies in operation, with a paid-up capital of abut 80,000/. each ; which divide a profit annually of from 20 to 25 per cent. His Excellency Sir James Stirling also, in his recent work on Western Australia, says, in allusion to the Western Bank of Australia, " The second half-year left a clear profit over the expenditure of 14 and a half per cent., which, after setting aside one-fifth as an accumulating fund, according to an existing rule, enabled the Directors to declare a dividend of 11 and a half per cent. on the paid-up capital ;at the close of the year no dishonoured bill remaining on hand, nor had the Solicitor of the Bank to commence a single suit for the recovery of a debt due to it." The Directors have for some time been making arrangements for immediately carrying into effect the objects of the Com pany; and in order to advance the influence of the Bank in the Colonies, they have reserved a portion of the shares for distri bution there. As the pi incipal part of the business must necessarily be car ried on is the Colonies, it has been thought inexpedient to have a numerous Board of Directors in London : it has there fore been determined that the number shall not at any time exceed ten ; but to secure the prudent administration of the affairs •f the Bank, a complete system •f superintendence is now being organized by the Directors for the Establishments in the Colonies. A sufficient capital has already been subscribed to enable the Directors to commence business immediately. They have therefore resolved, in order to avoid the inconvenience which has been found to arise in other undertakings from an unre stricted application of shares, and to induce only those to apply who wish to become bona fide proprietors, not to entertain any application unless made in the printed forms provided by them for that purpose, and accompanied by a payment of 2/. upon each share applied for, the Directors reserving to themselves, at the time of appropriation, the right to reject or comply with such application, either in whole or in part, the money to be returned if the application be rejected, and to be placed to the credit of the party in respect of the shares allotted to him if accepted. For the guidance of those who may wish to become proprie tors, it may be mentioned, that it is not in contemplation to call up more than 10/. per share for the next twelve months. The Directors have postponed filling up the London Board to the full number of ten, is. order to give them the opportunity of selecting influential proprietors, whose assistance and co operation they may think it advisable to secure for the interests of the concern ; power is reserved to them for that purpose, and they are also authorized to complete all other arrangements necessary for putting the Company into immediate operation.

The following epistolary correspondence we saw about a fortnight ago in the Argus newspaper, but declined publishing it, as it appeared to be a wicked satire on high life : it has not, however, been contra dicted, and we therefore conclude that it is no fiction. An excellent comedy might be written on the subject. Why may not servants, after this, play fantastic tricks ? They could not possibly make a more ridi culous figure. (Copy I.)—Lady Seymour presents her compliments to Lady Shuckborough, and would be obliged to her for the character of Mary Stedman, who states that she has lived twelve months, and still is, in Lady Shuckborough's establishment. Can Mary Stedman cook plain dishes well, make bread—and is she honest, good tempered, sober, willing, and cleanly ? Lady Seymour would also like to know the reason why she leaves Lady Shuckborough's service ? Direct, under cover, to Lady Seymour, Maiden Bradley. (Copy 2.) —Lady Shuckborough presents her com pliments to Lady S. Her Ladyship's note, dated Oct. 28, only reached her yesterday, Nov. 3. Lady Shuck borough was unacquainted with the name of the kitchen maid, until mentioned by Lady Seymour, as it is her custom neither to apply for or give characters to any of the under servants, this being always done by the housekeeper, Mrs. Couch—and this was well known to the young woman ; therefore Lady Shuckborough is surprised at her referring any lady to her for a charac ter. Lady Shuckborough having a professed cook, as well as a housekeeper, in her establishment, it is not very likely she herself should know any of the abilities or merits of the under servants ; therefore she is unable to answer Lady Seymour's note. Lady Shuckborough cannot imagine Mary Stedman to be capable of cooking • for any except the servants' hall table.—Nov. 4, Pavi lion, Hans-place. (Copy 3,)—Lady Seymour presents her compliments to Lady Shuckborough, and begs she will order her housekeeper, Mrs. Pouch, to send the girl's character, without delay ; otherwise another young woman will be sought for elsewhere, as Lady Seymour's children cannot remain withoUt their dinners because Lady Shuckborough, keeping a " professed cook and a house keeper," thinks a knowledge of the details of her es. tablishment beneath her notice. Lady Seymour un derstood from Stedman, that, in addition to her other talents, she was actually capab le of dressing food fit for the little Shuckboroughs to partake of when hu ngry . [To this note was appended a c l ever p en and ink vignette, by the Queen of Beauty, representing the three little Shuck boroughs, with large turnip -looking heads and cauliflower wigs, seated at a round table , ea tin g and voraciously scrambling for mutton-chops dressed by Mary Steadman, who is seen looking on with supreme satisfaction — while Lady Shuck borough appears in the distance in evident dismay.] (Copy 4.) —Madam : Lady Shuckborough has di rected me to acquaint you that she declines answering your note, the vulgarity of which is beneath contempt • and although it may be the characteristic of th e Sh er i: dans to be vulgar , c oarse, and witty, it is not that of "a lady," unless she happens to have been horn in a garret and bred in a kitchen. Mary Stedman informs me that your Ladyship does not keep either a cook or a housekeeper, and that you only require a girl who can cook a mutton-chop—if so, I apprehend th at M ary Stedman, or any othe r scullion, will be found fully equal to coo k for or manage the establishment of the Queen of Beauty.—l am, your Ladyship's, &c. ELIZABETH COUCH. (Not Pouch.) t by the THE CORONER FOR MIDDLESEX.— meeting of the Magistrates, the following motion, proposed A the R , lieu. Mr. Williams, was adopted Mr. Waklev having admitted that the inquests held between the 30th of December, 1839, and the 10th of January, 1840, amounting to 40/. 9s. 7d. (including the expenses paid out of pocket), had been held by deputy; that the same, in accordance with the resolution of the Court, be recommended to be disallowed." Mr. Wakley observed that it had gone forth to the world that the charge for niue inquests amounted to 471. This was in a report from that Court. lie was determined that the gross untruths, which were inserted in reports professing to come from his own Court, sh ou ld cease , an d that, so far as his proceedi ngs as Co roner were concerned, the public should be put in possession o f accurate reports, or none.

Lord Brougham, too, is by no means wanting in the true Demosthenic vigour, but he, is, generally speaking, too pleonastic ; and instead of demolishing his antagonist by one crushing blow, often loses sight of him altogether, in his eagerness to set off his own Inexhaustible resources to the best advantage. The great secret of popular oratory is conc'seness and simplicity. Go straight ahead, and never deviate from the subject !natter-in-hued, for a mix©d audience, such as the House of Commons, is notoriously impatient of digression. We subjoin a spirited sketch of Demos thenes rising to answer the Ambassadors of Philip at Thebes " Behold him in the council-room. His adversaries, the ambassadors of Philip, have finished their address ; they have set forth the rights resources of their master, the madness of resistance to him, the advantages of his alliance. Their task is an easy one. They have preju dice and selfishness on their side. They see that their highest demands, their most eager wishes, are anticipated by the concurrence of their auditors. They sit down in security. He rises to answer them. .The collective wis. dom, the senators (though in Thebes they were not abso lutely wise, inasmuch as they were not hereditary) dispose themselves to hear him. They had long' known him by his renown, and therefore looked upon him with interest, and were even inclined to listen to him. But it was the interest not of doubt, but of curiosity;—that of the twelve nien, honest and true, who have made up their minds from the very outset, and have therefore leisure to amuse them-. selves with the declaration of an aspirant counsel. He has begun—but •is it really he? The mighty master of words, the wielder of the democracy, the consummate rhetorician ? Bet where are his tropes and figures ? How is it that he has brought us nothing but simple truths, arid left all his artifices behind him ? He has uttered but haif a dozen sentene:s, and already is he grappling with the main body of his 201:jed. This "is strange. Their cu riosity becomes earnestness. They look about them for a moment, and then their attention is rivetted on him, once for all. Sentence upon sentence the speaker strikes home. The strokes tell. The metal, so cold but even now, is warmed through. The warmth becomes beat. It is hot —red hot. It burns vividly. It is all over in a glow. He sees that they are at the right temper. He works and welds them at his will. But a few strokes more, and be has made of that dull metal a meet and high-wrought in. strument—a sword of proof—ay, and more. He has ear. ried home that sword in triumph, and has armed with it his countrymen, defenceless else, but now terribly furnished for their warfare. Often before bad he stimulated the public spirit of the Athenians. But this was little compa ratively—he has now created that of the Thebans. Truly his triumph over Python is as full of high sentiment and as godlike as that of Apollo himself, though it live not yet in sculpture." . _ _ While on the subject of Demosthenes, we may ob serve that Lord Brougham was taunted, in a late num ber of the " British and Foreign Review," with his ig norance of Greek, for having translated the word " E3si" —which occurs in one of the great orator's speeches— by "it were well." 'When we first met with this acctss sation, we had no means of answering it, not having the speech in question at hand to refer to ; since then, howe ver, we have procured it ; and now have no hesitation in saying, after an attentive perusal of the whole sentence that his Lordship's translation is the very aptest that could possibly have been given, expressing the author's meaning to a nicety. " British Birds" is an amusing review of Mr. Yarrell's able publication on this sub ject. The details respecting nest building are exceed ingly curious. Ihe notice of " Joanna Baillie's Plays" is readable, but the theme is somewhat hack neyed. In the criticism on " Emerson's Discourses" the Reviewer indulges in several pertinent strictures on the want of originality in American literature. It is certainly at present but a mere copy of that of the mother-country ; but then it should be borne in mind that our literature is the slow growth of centuries, while the United States are but a nation of yesterday. " Robin Hood" is a clever essay on one of those few themes which never weary an English reader. The historical portion of this essay, as distinguished from the purely legendary, suggests much interesting matter for reflection. On the " Postage Stamps" is a season• able article, to which are affixed, by way of appoodix, some designs for stamp covers by Messrs. Sievier and Whiting. Of these designs, the best appears to us to be that by Mr. Sievier, whose object has been, first to secure (as much as the subject would admit of) the Revenue from fraud by imitations of the stamp ; and secondly, a rapid and cheap mode of providipg for any possible required consumption. FINE ARTS. PANORAMA OF BENARES. We went yesterday to a private view of this Pano rama, which is far superior to that of Versailles, which is exhibited in the same place, whether as regards choice of subject or skill of execution. The picture is taken from the river near the centre of the semicircle, whence the whole of the Holy City—for such Benares is con sidered by the Hiudoos—is seen at a single glance. The high banks are adorned by an immense num• ber of temples, and pagodas of all sizes and forms, some painted or gilt, and others of the colour of stone ; and on the summit and brow of the hill behind, stand the stone mansions of the wealthy nabobs and merchants, together with numerous mud hovels belonging to the poorer classes. These are all mixed confusedly together, yet the whole forms an im posing spectacle teeming with variety, and heightened in effect by the luxuriant foliage of trees. Lower down, on the immediate bank of the river, there are large flights of steps which descend from the temples, to say nothing of several elegant, bat somewhat fanciful looking pavilions. The river itself—the well-known, sacred Ganges—is crowded in all directions with craft of various descriptions ; in one place, we see the large budgerow gliding along the broad stream ; in another, the bolios of the rich natives dancing buoyantly on the water ; here, huge ferry-boats crossing from shore to shore ; and there, cotton and baggage heats carrying their produce to the crowded mart. Theopposite shore of the liver is formed of a low and level sand-bank, near which, close to some tents, one or two elephants are repre sented bathing. In mid-channel we see a sort of raft, on which is placed a dead body, which two vultures are busily devouring ; and at no great distance from this unsightly object, a huge alligator rears his head, j us t above the surface o f the river. As a painting, this Panorama deserves great praise ; the lights and shadows, in particular, on the Ganges, are pourtrayed in Mr. Burford's most effective style. COURT CIRCULAR. Her Majesty and Prince Albert honoured Covent Gar den Theatre with their presence last evening. The Royal suite included the Hon. Miss Murray, Lord Lilford, Col.

Much anxiety is felt in the sporting circles as to the qualifi tion of Naworth, who is described in the nomination as by Liverpool " dam by Emilius, eut of Surprise," the year in which the dam was foaled not having been added; the mare having had an own sister named in the Stud Book " Nose gay," it has been generally supposed that the omission of the year of foaling would prove fatal to Naworth's qualification. The decision in the Bob Peel question has led some parties to suppose that, inasmuch as his dam's sister bad a name, the identity of Naworth's dam was clearly es.tablizhed, and tix , bability of ci6qualineation not so meat as it was. It is tc, I,grett4d that the question is not brought before the Joek eY Ckih, and saki. reit. TUESDAY EVENING. TIMES—By the advice from liarnburgh of the 3d inst., the price of gold is 430 per mark, w hich, at the Eng lish Mint price of 31. 17s. 16d. the ounce for standard gold, gives an exchange of 13.7,1. and the exchange at Hamburgh os London at short being 13.7, it follows that gold is 0.23 per cent, dearer at Hamburgh than in London. The premium on gold at Paris is 7 per nae, which, a the English Min• price of 31. 7s. 1041. the entice for standard gold, gives an exchange of 25.321, and the ex change at Paris on London at short being 25.20, it fel lows that gold is 0.10 per cent. dearer at Paris than in London. The course of exchange at New York on London is 105 per cent., and the par of exchange bet vein Ergland and America being 109 23-40 per cent., it follows thLt,tho exchange is 1.07 per cent, against England. There has been an improvement in the price of Conwls to-day, though business has not been dine to any large extent. A meeting of the Proprietors of the Croydon Rai!may was held to-day at the London Tavern. being Ow first half yearly meeting since the opening of the line. It appears that they have hitherto been able to clear their expenses, besides paying tolls to the Greenwich Company, and the interest upon mortgages, eze. The new Diteciors and Auditors animaciverted somewhat severely upon the stale in which the accounts had been kept prior to their rumi nation, and their feelings seemed to be pa; teipated in by the Shareholders. city of ow ners o f steam An association is forming in the vessels, on a large scale, for the genyral protection of their interests. It is intend:A as a counternart of the ShipowLees' Society, and is certainly called for by th e grow i ng rn , gr,i. tude of property of that description. A project is on foot here for improving the communion.. tions'witii India by means of large and powerful steam vessels, which rre to run every month from a port in tire Chatinel to Alexandria with the Indian and Mediterranean mails, and to touch at Malta and Gibraltar only on their way out and home. Each vessel's to perform the whole journ e y to Alexandria and back, waiting at Alexandria after disem barking the mails for the homeward mails and passeccers, and performing quarantine, if any be required, at her port of arrival in England. It is calculated that the con veyance of the mails between London and Alexandria will occupy fifteen days on the outward, and sixteen girl the hornew: - .rd voyage. It is even surmised that this scheme, if successful, may render unnecessary the route via Mar seilles, and make this country independent of France in her communications with India, though this is a mere hy pothetical conjecture, and not the main desi7n of the pro posers. There is even an idea of up the plan by a line of steam-packets between Calcutta, Madre's, Ceylon, and Surz, which would complete the whole route. The success of this plan, however, will materially depend, it is thought, on Portsmouth being made the port of arri val and departure, instead of Falmouth. HERALD.—Money has again become plentiful in the Stock Markets. It was barely worth 4 per cent. this af ternoon on the security of stocks in Exchequer Bills. The effect of this improved state of things wes, that the public securities have been very firm to-day, at a slig'utimprove merit in value. Consols for money have risen from goi to 901, and for account to 91i 1. There was scarcely a bargain transacted throughout the day exceeding 6,000/. stuck in amount. The proceedings of the House of Commons this evening, on the motion of the Chancellor of the Ex chequer " for the appointment of a Select Committee to inquire into the effects produced on the circulation of the country by the various banking establishments issuing notes payable on demand," are looked for with much interest in the City, not only by the proprietors of shares in joint-stock banks, but by others engaged in banking business generally. It is bepcd most sincerely that the subject, all important as it is, will he most fully investigated by the Committee ; and that political biais and party feeling will not be permitted to influence in any way the proceedings of those who may be selected by the mouse of Commons to inquire into, and report on, this vital ques tion. We have reason to believe that it is the wish, not only of the Directors of the Bank of England, but of all other parties who have their interest in banking business in the city, that this question should be settled, and that the result of the labours of the Committee may be such as not only to give general satisfaction, but that the system of agitation, which has been kept np for years past on this subject, may be put an and to. SUN.—The markets for sugar were not so brisk this afternoon. owing to the expectation of fresh or rivals from the West Indies. Coffee was rather dull from the same cause, and tea underwent no alteration in value. We are glad to notice an improvement, though cer tainly a slight one, in the foreign exchanges. Bills on Paris were negotiated at 2.5 60, on Amsterdam at 12 24, and on Hamburgh at 13 9i. The Funds closed very firmly, and prices were about per cent. better than in the early part of the m,,rn ing. Consols for Money were last done at 90i, and far April at 914, Exchequer bills rose to 22 premium, and India bonds to 2s. premium. The New Three-and-a- Half per Cents, advanced to 994. The Foreign Stocks were flat up to the termination of business, Spanisii Actives were last quoted 24, Portuguese New Bonds 34, Mexican 29k, Brazilian 78, and Dutch Two-and-a-Half per Cents. 33i. The Railway Shares were steady, hut not in brisk demand. POLITICAL SUMMARY OF TINN MORNING JOURNALS. The Morning Chronicle of this day;. alluding to the late po. tition against the Corn•lavrs from the Guardians of the Bolton Union, observes :—" Our Tory contemporaries do net s.-.em to relish the idea of Poor-law Guardians petitioning against the corn monopoly. One of them is scandalised that Boards of Guardians should become what it terms normal sehools of po litical agitation. Nov♦, that politics should interfere with public charity is undoubtedly most undesirable ; but that an im post on the poor man's food, for the exclusive benefit of a wealthy class, should be unnoticed by the poor's guar dians, under the pretext of its being political, is, to our apprehension, not less undesirable."—The Morning Post thus refers to the public dinner about to be given to Mr. Byng at Drury-lane Theatre :—" We have nothing to say against any tribute of respect being shown to Mr. Byng. We have a regard for him on account of his antiquity, and—if we might venture to suggest anything upon such an occasion— it is that lie should attend the dinner (maugre ceremony - ) in the leather breeches and top-boots which must ever be asso ciated with our personal recollections of Squire Byng.' Bet, because we respect Mr. Byng, we are disgusted to see such paltry puffery connected with a dinner to which his name is attached."—The Morning Herald remarks, in allusion to the Chancellor of the Exchequer's motion last night for a Select Committee to inquire into the present system of banking :—" The Right Hon. Gentleman enumerated many of the difficulties which surround the subject—but declined to hazard any opinions of his own in regard to the best mode of ov rcoming these difficulties. llis object, and that of his col leagues, is, of course, to shrink from the respomibility of any changes that may be deemed desirable, by throwing that re sponsibility on the Committee."—The Times, speaking on the question of the reduction of the household troops, remarks as follows :—" Who but a niggazd and a misanthrope would rob our youthful Queen at this moment of commencing her Royal career with her amiable and gallant husband, of all the pride, pomp, and circumstance" attached to the employment of theta superb troops, which, after all, really cost the coun:ry nothing worth the slightest notice?" 1 From TIM WErKLY DISPATCH of Sunday, March 8, 1840. i THE MORALITY OF " THE TIMES" JOURNAL. —There is no journal in the metropolis, and it is extremely doubtful whether there is one to be found in the world, which has alternately displayed Ki much insincerity and baseness as Tie Times, a newspaper which has advocated and betrayal every party with which it has been connected. The following are extracts from that journal, and nothing can be more revolt ing to an honest mind than the evidence they afford of the utter want of morality and the absence of truth and candour in the Editors. It will be seen that, in 1834, the immaculate Times lent its assistance to Chartism, while in 1837, only three years afterwards, the honest Editors were aksolutely rabid in their delight of Toryism ; but that may be accounted for by the fact, that the same men who write the leading articles for it now, about the year 1835 suffered their consciences to be sold by private contract, with the types and machines, to the Carltex Club !
