We have already commented on the serious consequences resulting from an increase in the minimum rate of discount. We have not, how ever, by any means seen the worst as yet ; and it is more than probable that further restrictions will speedily be added, so that it will be impossible for even the most solvent and respectable houses, to obtain the requisite pecuniary facilities for conducting their business. The return from the Bank of England for the week ending the 3d inst. is of a very unfavourable character. The reduc tion in the stock of bullion during the week amounted to no less 'an 613,3961. while the decrease in the reserve is far more than double that 4 mount, being no less than 1,408,1201., while the " other securi ties " have increased by the enormous sum of 2,116,1431., and there is an increase in the notes in the hands of the public of 805,1551. It may be said the large amount of other secu rities proves the liberality of the directors, and the great assistance which they have rendered to the trade and commerce of the country. But it is not so. No less than 1,000,0001. sterling has been advanced to the E%st India Company, and it is this heavy loan that has increased the rate' of discount and occasioned so much confusion and dismay in monetary circles ; and as the Company still possesses a borrowing power to the further extent of 1,500,0001., it is more than probable that the operation will be repeated ere many weeks have elapsed. On Monday we expresses our belief, noth with standing the vaponring assertions made on behalf of the East India Company by Mr. VERNON SMITE, just efore the prorogation, to the effect that they had ample funds to carry on the war until next February without contracting a loan, that the Directors had taken too sanguine a view of their resources, and that they mul borrow, and that to no inconsiderable amount. The accu !, me,' of our opi n i on b as a l rea dy been fully verified. They have been obliged to borrow from the Bank of England t Lard CANNING has been trying to raise money in Calcutta, and Sir JOHN LAWRENCE , ix; done so in the Punjaub. What then can we think of t, the statements that have been so strongly put forward but a few short weeks since? They must have been either wilfully false, or' the Company i must be singularly bad fiftanciers, incapable uf form ing a just estimate of the true state of their affairs. The Directors of the British Bank are to be placed on trial for a similar erroneous account of their affairs, which has been rendered a misdemeanour by the act of last session. It is true that the Leadenhall-street magnates have not sought to t'btaio. money from their dupes, but they have deceived the Parliament and People of Great B rttain, and proved that they are not to be trusted with the administration of the affairs of a mighty kingdom. The charges which they are now creating must, as we stated' on Monday, sooner or later fall on the Exchequer of the 'United Kingdo m, 1 when the anomalous double Government is abo- Wired, and Hindostan becomes an integral portion of her MAJESTY'S dominions, under the direct rule of Queen VICTORIA and her responsible Ministers. Why, then, should Parliament not be consulted on a matter of such vast importance to every taxpayer throughout the length and breadth of the land ? Why should not a loan be con tracted, with a national guarantee for its redemp tion ? By these the requisite funds could be obtained, at 31, or at most 3i per cent., which otherwise will cost fully 6 per cent., an important difference when " the little bill " is presented for payment. It will thus be obtained in a legitimate and straightforward manner, and there will be no addition to the monetary derangement, which must be the case if the Bank is again resorted to. Mr. SMITH carefully abstained from presenting an Indian Budget during the past Session. Had it been otherwise we might have obtained startling information, that would have frighted the Isle from its propriety. We know that for several years previously there had been a deficit, which, in 1853-4—the very year when we gave the Di rectors a new lease of power—amounted to more than two millions sterling, and in 1854-5 to more than one million seven hundred thousand pounds, and in 1855-6 to nearly a million. What, then, must have been the falling off since the commencement of the outbreak, when the treasuries were plundered of their contents, and the collection of revenue through a vast tract of country seriously impaired, if not altogether suspended, and a vast increaase of military expen diture coincident with the deficiency in the revenue ? We know what the operations in the Crimea cost the nation. We know that Indian pay and allowances far exceed what was paid to our soldiers during the Russian war. We may then form a rough estimate of what may be re quired for crushing the rebellion and restoring the British authority in India. Would it not be well for the Directors of the Company to meet the emergency boldly and fairly ? To state their case unreservedly to Parliament and demand the necessary aid. They may be assured that loans of one or two millions from the Bank of England will not suf fice, although they may be productive of very disastrous consequences to the industrious classes in this country. An autumnal session is rend dered imperative by the suppressio yen of the East India Company, if there were no other cause —and there are many—to render it both politic and expedient. Murders have recently been committed to a frightful extent in this country, generally arising from the dastardly use of the knife—an un-Eng lish weapon, used in an un-English manner. Scarcely a days occurs that we are not horrified by some sanguinary ontrage, ending in the death of the victim. Many, too, under circumstances of peculiar and cold-blooded atrocity, showing an amount of heartless deliberation on the part of the assassin, It is scarcely necessary to refer to the murder of the unfortunate woman, CHARLOTTE PUGSLEY, in the Leigh Woods, near Bristol. The person charged with the offence was her affianced husband, who had brought her from her master's house under the pretext of marrying her. Of course we do not mean to say anything as to his guilt or innocence. It must be fully investigated before a competent tribunal, and we shall be truly rejoiced if he can exonerate himself from the foul accusation. Again, there was the homicide at Birkenhead, the fratricide in Liverpool, where one brother took the life of another in a quarrel which took place when the victim was defending his aged mother from the violence of her unnatural son. Then came the alleged parricide at Bramal!, committed under the most awful circumstances. This was speedily followed by the Balls Pond murder, in which the husband of the victim is accused, and yesterday a discovery was made of a murder as yet involved in mystery, but attended with the most revolting and horrible circum stances. In most of these deeds of violence the knife was the weapon used. CHARLOTTE PUGSLEY had her throat cut and was also shot. The Birkenhead homicide was a case of stabbing arising out of a common street row. At Liverpool, it was also a case of stabbing, the fatal facility afforded by the knife, leading one brother to imbrue his hands in the blood of another. At Bramall it was by e flrearma that the murdered man perished, but Mrs. DATIS had her that cut, and the latest and unknown victim was stabbed iu several places both in chest and stomach before the horrible mutilation of his inanimate body. Nothing since the days of GREENAQRE has ex cited so great a sensation as that which was yes terday brought to light at Waterloo-bridge. The body —manifestly that of a person having the appearance of a gentleman, from the clothes which he wore at the time of the murder—bad been cut into more than 20 pieces, beside which the head, hands, and feet were wanting. The bones of the legs and arms had been rudely sawn asunder, and the greater portion of the flesh re moved. This had been pickled, to prevent decom • position, until a favourable opportunity cc curred of disposing of the mangled remains. There were, likewise, no less than nine stabs, seven about the region of the heart, and two in the abdomen, any one of which would have proved fatal. These ghastly evidences were packed up in a carpet bag, and the murderers, or their accom plices, manifestly thought that theyhad succeeded in disposing thereof in the river. Fortunately, however, it rested on one of the abutments of the bridge, and the fact of the awful outrage was thus revealed. Everything that has cone to light proves the fiendish ferocity and cunning exercised. We trust, however, that the latter may not suffice to screen the blood-thirsty assassins. The Police have already a clue which we have no doubt they will follow up with their usual sagacity, so that the majesty of the law may be vindicated, and another illustration afforded of the futility of the attempt to hide such deeds of darkness, and of the apparently trivial causes by which the most artfully contrived schemes for concealment ale frustrated. Count Baptiste Metaxa had an interview with Mr. Secret.iry Labouchere yesterday. Sir E. Head and Mr. Gisborne bad also interviews with the right hon. gentle man at the Col. nial- , ,ffice.

" To-day at noon the Emperor held a grand re view. The Empress was present on horseback. His Imperial Highness Prince Napoleon and their Excellencies Marshals Magnan, Count de Castellane, Duke of Malakoff, Count Randon, Caurobert, and Bosquet accompanied the Emperor, and added by their presence to the imposing brilliancy of this solemnity. Marshal Count Valliant Minister of War, and Marshal Count Baraguay d'Hilliers were not able to leave Paris on account of illness. " After inspecting the troops drawn up in a double line, the Emperor distributed rewards for good service. The troops then filed past under General Count Regnaud de St. Jean d'Angely, in admirable order. " Despite the uncertain weather a great number of spectators had come from the neighbourhood to witness the review. " Immediately after the review her Majesty the Empress, accompanied by the marshals, left for 8 - . Cloud. His Imperial Highness Prince Napoleon does not leave till to-morrow. The Emperor leaves the camp on Saturday. " ORDER OF THE DAY. " Camp of Chalons, Oct. 8. " ' Soldiers,—The time we have just pawed to gether will not have been lost. Your milit ►ry in . struction has increased, and the bonds which unite us have been drawn closer. " ' When General Bonaparte concludel the glo rious peace of Campo Formic) he hastened to place the conquerors of Italy under the drill of detach ment and battalion, thus showing how needful it is oven for old soldiers, to return incessantly to the fundamental rules of theory. That lesson has not been forgotten. Scarcely returned from a glorious campaign, you have zealously resumed the practical study of evolutions, and you have inaugurated the Camp at Chalons, which will become the great school of exercise for the whole army. " The Imperial Guard will thus always give a ' good example in peace as in war. Well instructed, disciplined, read► for any emergency for the benefit of the country, it will be I'm the Line, from the ranks of which it has sprung, a fair object of emu lation, and will contribute with it to maintain in tact that ancient reputation of our immortal phalanxes who have succumbed only to the excess of their glory and of their triumphs. " ' NAPOLEON." The Empress arrived last night at Paris, at a quarter past eight, and set out immediately for S'. Cloud, where she arrived at nine o'clock. Prince Napoleon has come to Paris from Chalors to-day. _ _ "It is believed," says the Union, " that the Le gislative Body will be convoked for the month of December, as the constitution requires it to as semble within a certain period after the elections, in order to verify the return of its members." From the Bank returns it appears that the me tallic reserve has declined both in Paris and in the branch establishments-121 millions in the former, and 91 millions in the latter. The discount accom modation shows a considerable augmentation in Paris, namely, 23i millions ; there is also an in crease iu the branch branks, though only to the extent of 2i millions. Advances on French secu rities have increased nearly one million in Paris, and about / of a million in the provinces. Advances on railway securities are 11 millions higher in Paris, while remaining nearly unaltered in the depart ments. On the side of the liabilities, the notes in circulation have increased 131 millions in Paris, and declined / of a million i❑ the branch banks. The account current of the Treasury shows a falling off of 34 millions. Private accounts cur rent have increased 191 millions in Paris, and nearly 1 million in the provinces. The whole ac count of the metallic reserve is at present 225 s millions, to 6051 millions of notes in circulation. The premium paid for the purchase of gold and silver has again amounted to a larger sum, having increased from 696,120 f. to 949,656 f.

This seems to be the sole material result of the meeting ; for it appears mut, positive than ever that, like the interview at Stuttgard, it was only a friendly meeting of the sovereigns, and that no resolution likely to affect the dtstinies of Europe was adopted. Pacific as surances were exchanged ; the inviolability of the existing divisions of Europe was recognised; but no stipulation respecting the reduction of armies and the general disarming of military forces was come to." SPAIN. The Madrid Gazette of the 6th contains nothir g on the ministerial crisis ; but all the journals state that it still continued. The _Espana, which a semi-official authority, says :—" The Ministerial crisis is in the same ri.uat'on tc•-day as it was yes terday.

LIVERPOOL, SATURDAY MORNING. The British and North American Royal Mail steam-ship Persia, Judking, Commander, ba3 ar rived with advices from New York to the 30th ult She brought 2001. specie on freight. On the Ist inst., at 10.45 a.m., lat. 40.42 N., long. 69.30 W., the Persia exchanged signals with the Royal Mail steamer Arabia ; and on the 7th, a+ 2.30 p.m., in lat. 50.95 N. long. 25.51 W., passed and exchanged signals with Royal Mail steamer Asia, hence for New York. At New York the negotiation of mercantile piper It bank and note-brokers' offices was extremely light and at very irregular rates ; highest grades of paper were discounted at 2 to 3 per cent. poi nonth, while very good endorsed notes change l hands at 5 to 6 per cent., and even at more exorbi tant figures under pemliar circumstances. On the 29th a conference of the leading bank officers was held, which resulted in a resolution to recommend an immediate increase of loans and discounts to the extent of 3 per cent. The Exchange market, both foreign and domestic, was very much deranged ; it was difficult to sell sterling, especially produce bills, some of which were disposed of at 100, while bankers' brought 105 b The New York Courier and Inquirer of the 30t1, says:— "Thus far the suspension extends to the Banks of Philadelphia, Lancaster, Pittsburg (the Bank of Pitts burg only excepted), Baltimore, Cumberland, Norfolk, Wheeling,and Wilmington, N.C., and the interior town ;enerally of those States, Providence, and all the provin ;ial banks. It ba nb•Aerved that the suspension ha -,een earliest in those places having a redundant bank circulation. This is the weak point in American bank , ng, and one on which banks throughout the country ;enerally fad. At Ne►v Orleans and St. Louis, whets legislation provides for an enlarged specie basis, their banks will not come into the measure of suspen sion. New Orleans bas 6,000,000 in specie again-t circulation of 8,000,000;. St. Louis bas 3,000,000 in coin, to meet a limited circulation ; while Illinois, Indiana, and Wisconsin are more inflated, their issues being based upon State bonds, now depreciated 15 t • 30 per cent., instead of gold and silver." Various calls had been made by the western bunkers for specie from 'New York to enable them to sustain themselves. The banking-house of E. J. Tinkham and Co., Chicago, had supended payment on the 29th. Mesers. Darby and Barividale, and 11(Ssrs. John J. Anderson and Co., suspended at St. Louis, t, , mporarily only, it is believed, b nth homes having capital and established credit hitherto The New York CQurier and Inquirer says :-- "The suspended banks at Philadelphia and Baltimore are gradually settling themselves down upon a non specie currency, and movements for the next 12 months will be regulated, in the first place, by the legitimate demands upon them by their merchants, and, ?eoondly, by the means and measures essential to a restoration at In early day. Of a resumption there is no hope under 12 months." Of ex , :hange, the NetuYork Shipping List says:— "On account of the unsettled state of money affairs not much has been done for the Prrsia. There have been plenty of sellers of bills in the market from bankers as well as shipping firms, and we quote prices with a large range. The transacti3ns in continental billet have been yery limited, but sales have been considerab'j lover. We quote bills on London, 4to G.Q. The bank statement was generally considered a favourable one, although there was a slight reduction of the specie item, owing to the liberal drafts made to eastern banks. The returns do not include those from the Island City Bank—a small and weak institution which has gone into liquidation. When allowance is made for the chaotic', of the report of this bank, the decreavz in the deposits was only about 100,000 dollars." The Stock Market was better; prices advanced under the belief that the banks would act har moniously and liberally from this date.

The Philadelphia North American, of the 29th, saysa much bett er f ee li ng i n th e money m After several c on f erence s among the market " T he re et t o - day w g presidents of all the city banks yesterday, it wa' determined to suspend the payment of specie on notes of all denominations...to issue their own notes, --- including the smal l e r den ominations, for cheques a nd all other obligations and to incr ease th e li ne o f discounts with a view to immediate relief, while maintaining the purpose of a resumption of specie payments. It was also determined to admit the Bank of Pennsylvania to equal participation in this arrangement, upon the fare goisg conditions. This'is the only step the banks have taken that have exhibited the concert and spirit of mu tual conciliation which the occasion demanded, and it has been followed by a cheerful rally that must be productive of great benefit." The Governor of Pennsylvania has issued a pro clamation convening the legislature in retpouse to a general sense of its necessity arising from the sus pension of specie payments by the banks and tho pervading derangement in business affairs. Tile. west and sonth were generally bare of exchange. The panic in Philadelphia and further north led to the suspension of specie paytnent by all the Bal:i more banks. The American, of that city, says— " The effect of the suspension was to brighten the aspect of c ,mtnercial affairs and relieve the aparehprision so `curistautly prevailing for the pa, t month."

THOMAS'S HOS PITAL. An inquiry; which lasted nearly four hours, took place last night at the Duke of Clarence, Horse-' ferry-road, Westminster, before Mr. Bedford, the coroner, tond,eing the death of James Benton, aged 43, a draymai , i, in the employ of Messrs. Thorne, and Co., of she Horseferry-road, which occurred under cireunistances of a vary shocking and my - lancboly nat,ure. The deceased, who had been 20 years in the employ of Messrs. Thorne and Co., and was a :steady respectable man, has left a widow (in the last state of pregnancy) and six orphans. The case excited the utmost interest, owing to his having bean turned away from St. Thomas's Hos pital, after the wheel 'of a loaded brewer's dray going over his body, dislocating 17 of his ribs, his cullar-bone, and his shoulder joints. Mr. W7n.ittield, the resident medical attendant of St. Thomas's Hospital, was present to watch the proceedin."gs on the part of the above institution, and the superintendent of the M division of the Metropobltan Police was also in attendance, owin, t.) a char ,, ,e being made against the driver of a Greenwick omnibus for causing the death of the deceased. An imm.imse mass of evidence was brought fo. ward ; but the whole of the facts and the attendiog circumstan.ces may be givei.); in the following con denied detail : _ On ay evening last, between seven and eight o'clock, the - deceased was proceeding up the Lon don-road, Southwark, with' his team, when the driver of the Queen Greenwich Omnibus whipped his lead ng horse, which caused them to ge oft at a hard trot ; this occasioned the deceased to be jolts d off his seat on the near side of the dray, the wheel going 'over his body. The unfortunate man was taken up; in a shocking condition, and conveyed on a police s.t . t . etcher to St. Thomas's HoSpital ; he was there Stripped and examined by a dozen or more young inedical students, who declared, after the examination, that there was " little or nothing the matter with him, and that he could not be ad mitted as a p atient." In consequence of this the unfortunate suiThrer was placed in a cab and con veyed home to' his lodgings, in the Horseferty road, Westminster. (The jury, at this stage of the procee'dings, expressed their astonish ment and in dignation at the authorities ( f St. Thomas's Hospital. On the following day (Saturday) the deceased, when in a state of great exhaustion, was attended by Mr. Knaggs, a surgeon, who disoovered that neatly all his ribs, 9 on one side and S on the other were broken, his collar bone dislocated, and also his shoulder joints. The case was hopeless (although the surgeons of St. Thomas's Hospital 'said there was nothing the mat ter with him) ; Mr. Knaggs continued to att-. , nd upon him until his dcath, which took place on Tues day, from the injuries above.described. The Coroner said it was a serious charge ag tinst so useful and paoula ran institution as St. Thomas's Hospital, and inquiratd of Mr. Whitfield. for expla nation of such an exti•aordinary fact. Mr. Whitfield said the chest of the deceased was not examined, which accounted for the fractures not being detected. The Jury one and all said, indignantly, that it was an imputation anti disgrage upon the institu tion. The Coroner observ - ied that, he differed from them. He said the proceedings were not in that tangible shape as to wari6,nt a censure upon the in stitution. A long discussion took place, when only 12 out of 17 of the jury signed for a verdict of accident.d death, without a censure ,upon the hospital. • THE AUSTRALIAN MAILS.-'—We learn from our Malta correspondent that up to the 29th of September nu telegraphic communication had reached Alexandria of the arrival at Suez of tho r, ustralian mail, which was to have left Sydney on the - i:lst of August, at,d was waited for by the Tamar :IbG Alexandria.

THE BELPIAN MINISTER ON TilE INDIAN MUTINY. The annual ploughing-match and exhibition of cattle and roots in connection with the Royal East Berks Agricultural Asssociation, took place on Tuesday, on Strood Farm, near Maidenhead. In the evening the dinner took place in the Town hall, and as many as 150 gentlemen and farmers attended. His Excellency the Belgian Minister presided, supported by the Hon. Colonel Hood, Mr. Vansittart, M.P., Captain Vernon, Captain Seymour, Captain Halford, Rev. H. Hooper, Mr, Sawyer, a county magistrate, &c. ; Mr. Palmer, M.P., was the vice-president. The " Health of the Queen" and other loyal toasts were proposed and drunk._ His Fxceldency the BELGIAN MINISTER proposed " The Health of _ the Army and Navy." He said upon ordinary occasions he should consider it hi , duty to expatiate upon the qualities which distin guish the British soldier ; upon his indomitable energy, his undoubted courage, his fortitude under every trial, his manly devotion to his country and his Queen. (Cheers.) But when he reflected upon the wonderful military achievements which have taken place since the beginning of this awful Indian crisis, he felt that he could not find word's adequate to express the deep feeling—the solemn feel ing of admiration and respect which such glorious deeds aroused in his soul. (Cheers.) He felt that he could not do justice to the heroism of that great and good man, General Havelock—that man who with a handful of brave warriors, as opposed to a most treacherous and barbarous enemy, had offered the noblest resistance that had ever been recorded in the military annals of any country. (Cheery.) His brave soldiers were not only fighting for the regaining and maintaining a power in India, they were fighting for a cause in which all free and enlighten-d nations were interested, and for the success of which they must all devoutly pray. (Hear, hear.) They were, -indeed, fighting the battle of civilisation itself. Listen to the insolent language of the. enemies of England abroad—of those who are the enemies of all civil and religious liberty. Already are they rejoic ing upon what they call England's humiliation and degradation ; already are they boldly predicting the downfall of England and of that hateful constitu tional government. (Hear.) In the face of such dap tiers, in the presence of a crisis of which it would be childish to diminish the extent and probable dura tion, they (the meeting) would, he was sure, feel and think with him that they were to testify their admiration for the English army and navy not only bypatriotic sympathetic effusions, not only by toasts and cheers, not only by words, however eloquent or stirring, but by the strongest and most useful corn 15ination of all possible means to increase that noble hand of defenders. (Cheers.) Let them all put their shoulders to the wheel, let them put their hands and heads together; let them appeal in a practical way to the sterling sense of the one and to the pound ster ling of the other; let every hand that can be spared from the field and farm be employed in wreaking vengeance upon the butchers of innocent people. (Cheers.) Henceforth let every one of them say to the man who complains he can find no employ ment, that he can lend a helping hand to his Chris tian brethren in India—tell the labourers that they, the farmers and yeomanry, would assist in sending hem over; that they would find at this moment the noblest employment that an Englishman could wish for—an employment in which they would reap the gratitude of their country, the admiration of a civilised world, and upon which they would, as with one voice, call down the blessing of God. He begged to apologise for having spoken with some warmth upon the subject, but he really felt upon it as if he were a true-born Englishman. (Cheers.) DANUBIAN I:RINCIPALITIES. BUCHAREST, Sept. 29. —The telegraph has already conveyed the results of the renewed Moldavian elections. Of the 90 members of the Moldavian Divan, 84 are pledged to vote for the Union of the Principalities under a foreign Prince, while four of the remaining six are reported to have given in their adhe ion to the majority subsequent to their election. From these data an idea of the feeling of the country can belformed, but it is necessary to examine the returns of the votes given to each can didate, in order fully to appreciate the unanimity of votes by which the elections were carried.

FEARFUL COLLIERY EXPLO SI{_►N NEAR BARNSLEY. Another of those fearful explosions, which are generally so destructive to human life, but not accompaniedby such results intlie present instancce, occurred in the main pit at Higham Common Col lieries, near Barnsley, the property of. Messrs. Charle3worth, at five minutes past two o'clock on Wednesday morning last. The retort. was hr and for several miles around, and until noon hundreds of people assembled from the neighbouring villager, anxious to learn the result, naturally expecting it to be attended by fearful loss of life. It soon be came known there were but two persons in the pit, who were engaged as " cupola" attendants, and these were drawn out alive about 6 O'clock, for tunately being only slightly burnt.

Mr. Ainsworth, the under steward, ques tioned the two men, after they were drawn out, as to whether they had been out of their way or could account for the explosion, but they eith , r could not or would not say how it occurred. If this explo sion had occurred during midday, when all the hwids were at wo:k, it would have been almost as serious as the late calamity at Lundhill.—Don easter Gazette. IRELAND. DUBLIN, FRIDAY. THE GOVERNMENT AND THE MAGISTRACY. The Lord Chancellor's letter to the Marquis of Londonderry has created quite a panic or surprise in the Irish political market. The .Northem, Whig, in whose columns the missive was first made public, maintains that, since 1829, a heavier blow has not been dealt against the ascendancy system in Ireland, adding " All honour to Lord Carlisle ' and to his (it is really necessary to say, Protestant) Lord Chan cellor. Government after Government in Ireland have admitted that Orangeism was their great difficulty. Lord Carlisle has been the first mah to face the fact and grapple with the evil. He has entered upon a serious struggle, and the vigour tof the act stamps him as a statesman. AscendanCy Protestantism will he staggered. Hereby that party is distinctly informed that the Viceroys of the British Sovereign are altogether unconscious of the blessings of loyal Orangeism ; and are strangely persuaded that the love of order and the frenzy for the interests of Great Britain are alto gether nuisances, perhaps sentimental, but slightly seditious. Every Orangeman is hereby advertised, by the first officials in Ireland, as a rioter or a pro moter of riots—as a bad subject, and consequently a bad Christian. It is an overwhelming decree. And let not the enthusiastically loyal persons who will immediately begin to roar resistance to the Viceroy consolethemselves with the hope that they can appeal to the Protestant passions and bigot sym pathies of English Toryism. .We are most assur edly satisfied that the Whig leaders in the Ministry have seized the opportunity of the Belfast riots to inflict that political retribution long due on the most debased, most artificial, and most mischievous party in Europe—the party of Irish Orangeism ; and we are not the less sure that the Tory leaders of Eng land will secretly applaud, and publicly, however tacitly, assent to, the just sentence passed by Lord Carlisle and his colleagues on a confederation which has been the curse of our country, which has set man against man, and which has done its pious utmost to rob us of one-half the blessings which Providence has smiled upon our land. Every gen tleman who, in future, ambitions the honours of the magistracy must disown. all connection with a dis loyal, turbulent, and dangerous body called the Orange Society. That is the prospective rule, which may, by due degrees. .secure Ulster an impartial magistracy. But the Lord Chancellor's letter will have a retrospective influence. No man of proper feeling, disagreeing with the Government respecting the character and tendency of the Orange Society, and being an Orangeman, can hold the commission of the peace. The wish of the Government plainly is, that no magistrate , hould be a member of an Orange lodge. Will any Orangeman already an Ulster magistrate remain of the bench ? Wo hope not ; the moral and political duty of resignation of men like Lord Enniskillen and Lord Dungannon is clear. But we dare say Orange loyalty will reveal itself by disobedience and defiance to the Queen's wishes and the Viceroy's orders. So be it ; the country will soon learn to know the difference between the legal magistrates and other magistrates for the administration of the law who are distrusted by the Government. But the blow has been struck. Orangeism is declared a vulgarity. The gentry will shun it. Its day is over. What a comment is the Lord Chancellor's letter ou the enthusiastic and eloquent boasts of the Tory journals, that the Riots Commission inquiry had demonstrated that the Roman Catholic, mob caused all the ruffianism ? Why is it that Lord Car lisle, whose speeches and writings are heartily Pro • testant, pas-es by the mobs, both Protestant and. Catholic, and puts his finger on the magistracy ?" THE FRAUDS ON THE BELFAST CUSTOMS. No trace yet of the ingenious Mr. Moore, but vigorous efforts, it seems, are being made to bring to justice every person connected with the frauds. " On Tuesday (says the Whig) Mr. Gardiner, a gentleman holding a high position in connection vvieh the Customs in Dublin, art ived in Belfast un der instructions that he was to leave nomatterun touched which could explain the character of the fraud and robbery. This gentleman immediately put himself in communication with some of the local magistracy, and opened a career of examination of the most searching and determined character. Mr. Gardiner held an interview on Tuesday with Mr. Tracy, who, although at present on leave of absence from official duties, takes a deep interest in this case, and also met Dr. M`Ghee. These gentlemen took up the suggestion which wo published. on Tuesday, and obliged the carman who conveyed Moore to Lisburn to appear before them. This person, we have been given to understand on the best authority, gave some important information. It would be injudicious, at the present stage of the inquiry, to disclose all the facts to which this party testifies. Enough it is to say that he has told some things that at some future day may enlighten the puhlic. Now, the great question is as to the whereabouts of Moore. We have made a very close investigation among persons most likely to be well informed on the subject, and the general impres sion is, that he has not left Great Britain and Ire land. This is the opinion of the ablest members of the police force after having studied the case with great carefulness and we have rea son t o be lieve that Mr. Gardiner is of the same opinion. This gentleman is conducting the case with sin gular caution and secresy, and, at present, the leading point of the investigation is simply thii —whether a case can to got up which would justify Mr. Gardiner advising the Customs' autho rities to direct a detective officer to proceed to the United States in search of Moore. With respect to the whole of the transaction we have beard a mass of statements, the majority of which we cannot rely upon. But we have this before us, unmis takeably, that there has been an immense conni vance in some leading circles in the transaction. We have had it confessed to us by one gentleman, -that on the Thursday night prior to the inform tion.received by the police he met Moore in Barn bridge's and that there he told him, By —, if you have touched a chest of my. tea I'll make a sacrifice of you !' Whether the chests of tea belonging to this person, so full of commercial morality, were dummied' or not, we have not heard, but his suggestion Was full o f c h aracter i st i c import. But what is this in comparison with Harbison's statement ? We must especially direct the attention of Mr. Gardiner to the information that Harbison can supply. The great point of his knowledge is connected with Moore's counting louse books, but there is as yet some secresy maintained in this part of the case. Mr. Harbison states that in Moore's counting-house books the purchasers of the teas are specifically named, but that there are certain hieroglyphic characters in them which he could easily reveal, and - -which aJord curious revelations. Here we have at once a clue to the buyers of the teas which Mr. Gardiner must follow up. Strange enough, amid all the excitement which ':com mercial circles have manifested for the ap prehensiou of Moore, no reward has yet been offered for his seizure. The Belfast police issued on Tuesday the following notification : "[For Police officers only.]—Description of John James Moore, late of Belfast, in the county of Antrim, tea merchant, charged with stealing 800 chests of lea from one of her Majesty's bonded stores in this town, and f or w h ose appre h ens i on I hold a warrant :—He is about 35 years old, 5 feet 7ir inches, well-formed, not corpulent, dark hair, slightly bald on the head, thin sandy whiskers, reit oval face, hollow cheeks, high cheekbones, large red nose ; holds his face down when walking ; has rather a jaunty appearance ; wore a black frock coat and gray trousers when last seen. Police officers are requested to search for and apprehend / said John James Moore, and communicate with' me.—Thomas Lindsay, chief constable, Police office, Belfast." A NEW CROP OF SEDITIOUS PLACARDS IN' NENAGH. The Nenagh Guardian, received this morning, states that a fresh batch of Sepuy posters have appeared on the walls of that town. Specimens are furnished : Tipperary Men ! ! Are you men ! ! If you have the spirit of Irishmen, ' do not neglect Ireland's opportunity ! Up for the areen - I I - Hurrah far the Indian Revolution I ! The punctuation was in the original; the notes of ad miration were made with perspicuity. In the vicinity of the ehapel,„on the shutters of an unoccupied house, was the following : Glorious News. England defeated. God bless the Rebels of India. Hurrah for Freedom. Another placard, stuck on the pillars of a church, called the 7th of October a Day of Exultation -for the gallant Sepoys. LORD BROUGHAM'S SEPOy PROPHEOY.—A singular anticipation of the possible entire revolt of the Indian ,ative army is recorded in Hansard's Commons Debater, 7th February 1828. Mr, Brougham, in his celebrated •peech on Law Reform, denotinced among other abuses in our judiciary system the delays and costliness of Indian appeal; decided in London by the former ill-con stituted Court of Privy Council. He contrasted the evil with the then improved law niurts of Ceylon, stat ing that one good effect had resulted in the latter colony ai the Coylort People, prev i ous l y re b e l l i ous , i n 1816 aided the moth er country in putting down and c:ush i ng i military mutiny. Mr. Brougham further observed, " So it will be in the Peninsula if you give your subjects a share in administering your laws, and an interest and a pride in supporting you. Should the day ever come when disaffection may appeal to 70,000,000 against a few thousand strangers, who have planted themselves upon the reins of the ancient dynasties, you will find how much safer it is to have won their hearts, and uni versally cemented their attachment by a common interest in your system, than to rely upon 150,000' Seyoy's swords, of excellent temper but, in doubtful hands."
