The intelligence which arrived yesterday at Liverpool by the Royal mail steam-ship Arabia is of a very gloomy character. The panic had increased in intensity ; an indiscriminate run for specie was made on all the banks, even on thost , of unquestionable solvency. Several were com pelled to refuse payment in specie during business hours on the 12th inst., although they continued to pay bank-notes and certified cheques, and in the evening of that day the banks of New York generally agreed, as a matter of self defence, to suspend specie payments on the following morning, and appointed a commit tee to proceed to Albany, and request the governor to eonvene the Legislature to consider the necessity of enacting some law to give reief to the present financial emergency. W o are told by the New York Courier and Enquirer, a highly re spectable journal, well-informed in financial 'mat ters, that the prevalent opinion was, that " a few of the old strong banks combined together, to force the majority into liquidation, and then con fine the business to a limited number. In doing this the smaller banks were compelled to curtail their opera 4 ions, and in the general restriction many of the most wealthy,- honourable, and useful firms have been sacrificed." Adding, «We speak within bounds, when we say that this cause has driven 50,000 men and women out of our workshops into idleness and poverty. There was, in fact, an almost total destruction of confidence anionse, an d the chaos Pe orer (query all) classes of the people, ass confusion prevailed in the City. It was utt erly impossible to convert any classes of security into money. No quotations of foreign or domestic e xchanges could be given. The market valu es of property, of stocks, of produce, &c., were all no minal. And this is the state to which matters are rapidly tending in this country, and at which they must arrive if the monetary enactments of 1844 are continued in unabated rigour. The faint hope entertained here was, that better news from America would relieve our own pressure. That must now be aband one d ; impossible that n and it is by no means new and more stringent regula tions will be adopted by the Directors, unless they have a well -grounded hope of early and decisive ( measures of relief on the part of the Government. These should no longer be withheld. Yester day was the tenth anniversary of the issue of the well known letter of the 25th October, 1847, and the virtual suspension of the Bank Charter Act. The crisis is at present just as imminent —the danger, in every respect, as great. As we already pointed out, there are several elements of confusion at present which did not then Exist. The exchanges were then in favour of this country. Now there is a heavy drain to India, China, America, and to almost all parts of Europe. The gold arrivals from 'Australia will be purchased over our heads by strangers who can well afford to outbid us in our own markets ; and it is vain to hope for any from California, for they will all be stopped in transitu to supply the more stringent wants of the United States. , From whence, then, can we look for relief ? What deus ex enachina will come for our assistance ? Is it not time, then, that we 10ked to our own security, and adopted the necessary safe guards to avert a wide-spread destruction—the ruin of all but wealthy capitaliits, who may be enabled to double their already enormous fortunes at the expense of the struggling community ? In the Times' money article of this day (written on Saturday evening) it is stated that " the arrival of the American and Indian mails, now due, will most likely settle the question as to the prospect of any other further immediate move ment." Well, the American mail has arrived, and the tidings conveyed thereby is quite sufficient alone to prove a real "settler." It is true that the Indian intelligence has not yet come to . hand, but we learn that the East India Company have purchased 250,000/. worth of silver to be transmitted by the mail of the 4th proximo, and it is more than probable that a still further amount will bo transmitted, and that the drain will be kept up for some time to come. This is another cause of uneasiness. Hitherto the remit- tances were to, not from .Lsadeuhall-street, and from, not to the United States. How can we stand up against it. We repeat, then, the questioa we have fre quently put —At what time are we to adopt means to avert the panic, and the incalculable mischief that must arise from its operation ? Is it to be in an early stage, or must the relaxation take place in the last extremity, and when the danger of general confusion has become immi nent t Must we suffer the commercial and manu facturing interests to be sacrificed to the Moneyocracy, and then only step forward when it is necessary to enable those who have profited largely by the general ruin to realise and secure their ill-gotten gains ? This time the deluge may be more general than before, and if not averted in duo time may sweep away the great with the small, the millionaire with the struggling trader. Exclusive of the painful tidings above commu nicated, the Bank Iteturne in Friday's Gazette were eufficien tto cause grave apprehension. They showed a decrease in the stock of bullion of 585,4651., au d in the notes unemployed of 807,215/. The pre ceding week showed a like falling off in bullion of 552,7491., and of notes of 581,030/. These are startling announcements within a single fortnight, and we fear that, if we could know the state on Saturday, there would be no symptom of improvement. Why then is there not an imme diate demand for the assembling of Parliament to_ consider measures adaptedfor the crisis. This.tcp ought to be adopted whether theeebe Government in terference or matters are tobe allowed to take their own course. Lord PALMERSTON will have to ac count for every hour's delay. The sufferers from the monetary disturbance will not consent to be willing victims, and retributive justice will await those who have trifled with their misfortunes 1 'How will the Campaign Parliamentary begin ? A' question which must be answered by another question—What, in Feb. 1858, will be the news from India ? It woukl be almost lucky for Lord PALMERSTON if the February mails announced estate of things as yet far from satisfactory. Patriotism then might hush all squabbles, Mr. DISRAELI would sting the Premier by sarcastic forbearance, W. B. and Sir E. B. LYTTON would give him a more frank support while fighting his country's bat.le. and Mr. GLADSTONE and Sir J. PARINQTON would perhaps merely publish a House of Commons edition of their lectures on humanity to Sepoys. But hop ing, as we do, that the ebb of mutiny will by t'ea; time not merely have commenced, but be rapidly flowing out, it is curious somewhat to conjecture how the game will be plgyed till Easter. There will be Old India represented by the East India Directors in the House, and Young India by Mr BRIGHT, if well enougb, and all the more straight forwird Reformers—provided they happen to have no relatives or connections in the Indian Civil Service. The Board of Control will strongly lean to Old India, but will not improbably, to a certain extent, conceal its policy, till it sees whether it b 0 strong enough to bolster up the D )able Govern m en t a little longer. That question is, of course, every thing, individually and officially, t) Mr. VERN-)N SMITH, since who on earth would tolerate hint as the clearly responsible Minister for India, any more than Lord CANNING would have been tele rated for a moment as Governor-General, had it been supposed that he would have had to suppress a mutiny, or indeed to do anything &se there than take his 25,0001. per annum, and countersign the decrees of Messrs. DORIN, GRANT, and Co. Then 'there will be the Reform business. If Indian affairs be convalescent, or tending that way, the Reform Bill must co=ne on. Lord JoaN, we presume, must be very hard at work on that business. Mr. OSBORNE wished him in the Cabinet, pro heel vice at least, and he himself on this business, enacts the responsible minister, who cannot be expected prematurely to announce his plans. We all somewhat wondered, when he received an honorary address the ottaer day at Birmingham, that the earnest Reformers of that Radical town said not a word about Re form to the author of the first the engaged nurse f or t }:se Reform Bill ar i d new one. It turns out that this was 1 "..,y his Lordship's desire. Of perticultr :ours° the inferenc e was , that his own Bill is being carefully matured ; that are means at least to take a conspicuous post /3.0n on that question next session, either as the Minister for the New Reform Bill, or as ihe independent supporter of Government ; ready either to supplement their work, if defective, or to proffer his own if the Government proposals incurably bad. Lord P ALMERSTON h as b een very lucky yet in having a good p re t ex t t o k eep ou t o f t h e micon - I geti a l subject of Parliamentary 'Worm. Russia, Chin; or a sh or t sess i on, have come opportunely to his aid, reason, that We hope, for eve India will nc.t avail him next year. As wo have , shown already, it may b e his policy t o take India and P ar li amentary Re-- 1 for together, hopin g to divi]© attention, and to get off, both at home and in the tact, more easily by doing so ; especially Ehould he escape th roug h session the presence of Mr. Counniv- and M r . MILNER GIB SON . W e rather hope, b ..owev,r, that the battle will be a pretty stiff one on both , the great questions of the session, and that the nation will not allow its representatives to tolerate equivocation or shuffling on either. It is quiet— more quiet than is prudent, perhaps, on the subject of Representative Reform ; but the reason is, that it fully expects Government to ful fill its promise, and thinks there will be time enough for action when the Ministerial plan is proposed. On the other subject it will not, as we believe, be content with half measures regard ing India. There must be searching en quiry. We mu t not be tricked by Mr. ROE BUCK stepping forward, taking on himself gratuitously the office of representing the Liberal party, giving notice of a resolution for a com mittee of inquiry, and then, at the re quest of Government, withdrawing it. Thorough inquiry there must be, and it must be, not by a Royal Commission, but by an independent committee of the House of Com mons, and of the House of L)rds too. We must summon home a fair number of the independent Europeans from Calcutta and elsewhere. We must have residents in India unconnected with the Company—the men who have by petitions and public meetings, where the press is gagged, asserted the rights of British subjects, and de nounced the incompetency of the Governor and his Council. We have already pointed out the vast import ance, in regard to India, of legislating at the earliest possible period ; or, in the very homeliest, but most expressive phrase, of " striking while the iron is hot." The iron is hot now. England is more warmly interested on the subject of India than it has been within the recollection of any liv ing man. Her middle classes, her electors, are interested, and while they are se, is the time for Indian reform. We are, a- a nation, touched in conscience for having handed over to a selfish commercial Company the government of so many millions of our fellow subjects. We have awakened from a dream, and while we are awake is the time to set things right. In dian debates will not drive members out of the House next session, and they will be carefully scanned next the morning by constituents who never read an Indian debate before. The eighteen directors with their 5001. a-year each, their chair man and deputy-chairman with their 1,0001. a-year each, and the patronage divided among them ; Mr. VERNON Smith, too, and his Board of Control with its patronage, will, of course, all be anxious not to canvass the merits of the system of Indian Government, while every one's eyes are wide open. All means will, therefore, be used to stave off such questions till another year, and till, it may be hoped, the natieia will begin to lose somewhat of its present intense feeling. Procrastination, the last and favourite, and sometimes most successful, refuge of political wrong-doers, will be the grand expedient. Let not, however, the Old Indians and the Board of Control be too reliant on such a poliey. While every effort should be made by Reformers to bring the Indian Adrninistrat ion under the most rigid scrutiny in the ooming session; yet, if these efforts fail, it may not serve the purposes of char- ' tered abuses so much as is expected. If the fer vour of the interest now taken in India !Subside somewhat, the determination of the country to do its duty by its almost innumer able, but hitherto neglected, fellow-subjects, may not—we trust will not—subside. The Anglo- Indian press will regain its liberty, independent Anglo-Indians will find advocates of their views who will not ret the pul3liC sleepy and the session of 3850 may b'e better instructed in East India Company delinquencies, and altogether more wary in the right direction, than that of 1858. Still, we repeat, and stand by our homely motto on Indian matters, to " Strike while the iron is hot."

The following telegraphic despatches have been received from Berlin SANS-SOUCI, FRIDAY, OCT. 23. A cabinet order, resulting from the formal opinion of the physicians, who state that the King must abstain for at least three months from all affairs of government, confers upon the Prince of Prussia the direction of the supreme affairs of the state for the said period of three months, unless, contrary to all expectation, the King's health should be re-established sooner. The order of the Cabinet invites the Prince to take upon himself the execution of its provisions. BERLIN, SATURDAY, Oar. 24. To-day at noon the ministers of state assembled at the palace, and the Prince of Prussia received the delegation of power for three months, in virtue of a cabinet order signed yesterday by the King, and countersigned by Baron von Man teuffel. The bulletin of the King's health, dated from Sans-Souoi, this morning at 11 o'clock, states that during the last twenty-four hours the state of his Majesty has been most satisfactory. BERLIN, SATURDAY EVENING. His Royal Highness the Prince of Prussia has addressed to the Ministers a statement, in which, after announcing his acceptance of the royal powers conferred upon him, he declares it be his firm will to conform faithfully to the constitution and laws of the country, and to direct the affairs of the Government according to the King's inten tions, known to him, so long as his Majesty shall think fit. The Prince adds that be expects from the army, the functionaries, and the subjects of the King, that they will pay him due obedience. The Ministers collectively, and each of them individually, will re main charged with the same responsibilities as be fore. The Ministry of State and the several de partments, together with the military and civil administrations, will be maintained in the same conditions. The decrees of the Prince will bear the signa ture :—By delegation of his Majesty the King the Prince of Prussia. The Prince prays God to grant him strength and grace to execute his mission to the King's satisfaction, and for the good of the country, and hopes that the re-establishment of his Majesty's shattered health will soon put an end to a mission, which he has accepted in deference to the King's orders, and from love to his country. The Cabinet order above referred to is as fol lows : " To THE PRINCE OF PRUSSIA. " Royal Highness and dear Prince,—As, accord ing to the prescription of my physicians, I must keep myself aloof from all business of State for at least three months, I herewith commit to your Royal Highness and dear Prince my proxy in the supreme conduct of the affair of State for a period of three months, unleis my health shout), contrary to expectation, be sufficiently restore I at an earlier period. I, therefore, herewith call upni your Royal Highness and dear Prince to issue the necessary commands. "FRIEDRICH WILHELM. "Sang Souci, Oct. 23, 1857." (Countersigned by all the nine Ministers.)

Toe Spectateur thus dwells on the immense finan cial resources commanded by England, an d marvels at the ti m id capitalists who imagine that the pre. sent crisis will unduly try her strength : f It must not be lost from sight that if the presont financial difficulties of England are great, her resources are also prodigious. Of these an idea may be c , mceived when we state that in five years, from 1846 to 1850, Eng land expended 150 million sterling on herrailways, and that in the revolutionary epoch, and before she had profited in the sli;zhtest by the immense resources created by the discovery of gold in California and Australia. If England could support a sacrifice like the above witkwut in the least obstructing the progress of her cornmerct and trade —if England has been able for years to accept only the petty interest of 1i or 2 per cent. paid on the enormous capital sunk in her railroad without having cxrrienced serious inconvenience, how immense must be her re sources at the present day, when her railway exrndi ture is at an end, when her commerce has nearly doubled, and when the gol l of California and A.ustralia swell her receipts. The accumuhtion of capital is such that country that, in our opinion, were England to lose all the surp , which she has expended in Tilidia and tha `2 milliards of capital now engaged in the United Stat4s, her credit would still stand the first in Europe. Froo , this it may be judged how little important, as regauls the future, are the exceptional embarrassments wi:ich now weigh on England, and, through her, on the whole of Europe—and how vain is the alarm of those people who allow themselves to become panic-stricken.

Telegraphic accounts fromViennaconrirm the in telligencenf the ministerial change at Constantinople and the return. to powor of Resehid Pacha. The only fresh piece of information we have obtained is that Aali Pacha remains Minister of Foreign Affairs, but with this exception the whole cabinet has been re-constructed. All the other members of the new Ministry belonged to RE,schid Paella's last cabinet. There can be no doubt that the Sultan's object in the change is to strengthen the opposition which he is 4 determined to make to the political union of the Principalities. Lord Stratford de Redcliffe has again ob tained a triumph at Constantinople. The Patric, observing that Aali Pacha has always been against the union, says that the change of ministers does not indicate any change of policy, but is rather a "reinforcement" of a line of policy previously resolved upon. It reinarkg, also, that the Sultan must wish to avail himself of the experience and ability of Roschid Pacha, in order the better to sustain. the struggle which is anticipate'. r tir4lfil-tOrt SUN OFFICE, Five k'Clock.

The quantity of English wheat arrived fresh up to our market this morning from Essex, was only moderate• From Kent the supply was tolerably good, but the majo rity of the samples were out of condition owing to the long prevailing damp weather. The attendance of millers was only moderate, and the demand for xll kinds arising fromthe prospect of large shipments of flour being made to this country from France, ruled heavy, at a decline in the quotations realised on Monday last of from 2s to 38 per quarter. There was an extensive show of foreign wheat, and im porters generally were sellers on lower terms. Very few transactions took place, and prices were is to 2s per qr. lower than last week.

COURT OF BANKRUPTCY—(mss Day)• (Before Mr. Commissioner Evans.) The cases during the morning were chiefly private, and for the choice of assignees. IN RE STEED/UN. This bankrupt was described as of Albany-street, Re gent's-park, pianoforte manufacturer, and to-day came up on his own petition. Mr. Laurance said that in this case the bankrupt bad assigned his property to trustees for the benefit of his creditors, but had subsequently filed his petition is bankruptcy. There was no desire on the part of the creditors to interfere with the proceedings of the true. tees in the collection of the estate, or on their part that it should be administered under bankruptcy ; but the Court would make an order that the trustees should be repaid a sum of about 1701,, which they had expended in carrying on the business, &o. His Honour granted the order, subject to the inyesti• gation of the items. An application was then made for an allowance to the bankru pt. Mr. Laurance objected at the present, as the bang rapt had received 1001. after be bad made the assignmen t ' and bad not yet accounted for it. The applications therefore, stands over. The accounts are in course of preparation by Messrs• Paul and Turner, and a dividend of 108. in the pound and upwards is expected. , CRIMINAL RT—{This Dap)• OLD COURT. The October session of this court commenced th is morning at the Old Bailey, before the Lord Mayor, the Recorder, Mr. Alderman Hales, Mr. Alderman an Sheriff Lawrence, Mr. Sheriff Allen, and the under sheriffs Messrs. Maitland and Parker. The calendar contains the names of 155 prisoners. The learned Recorder, in charging the grand jury ) 0 1 that although a somewhat longer period had eleP"' than was usual since the last session, it was to be e' petted that the business would be greater,_ but that wt not sufficient to account for the number of serious 0 1 7 contained in the calendar. There were five eharge o wilful murder, besides those of manslaughter, pedal' burglary, and the other usual classes of stealing, but none of them were of such a character as would b° likely to give them much trouble. After entering h it° the details of the charges as stated on the de ositioner P ee l the learned Recorder referred to a charge of attee 3 P'id extortion against a person named Rose. It TO P t i t appear from the deposition, that previous to the 1 "" election in this city of Lord Mayor there was sorae a r o prehension of a contest, and a question arose relative to the employment of the defendant Rose as an agot a conduct the election for one of the parties. On var y , occasions the defendant said it would be necessary '" er the gentleman likely to he opposed to put down a la r fbe sum than that subscribed against him, to meet threatened contest and secure his election ; and .0 11 40 quently be produced certain handbills. The def end s having failed in obtaining the agency, then e l" 0 papers should be published, and it was on that threib•. os was charged, under the 6th and 7th Vic. - The que! ti o i f , ,r their consideration was, whether the alleged tor 0 was made with intent to obtain an office of, profit ore, extort money, according to the terms of the act , or you, Cher it was made from a feeling of annoyance at not raining the agency. It appeared to him (the 'earl; Recorder) that if the evidence in the depositions e 0 t 4 be relied on, the threat was made by the defendan t ; gratify his revenge for not receiving the appointment t`ci expected, and if so, it was not an offence within the of Parliament.
