WIND, S.W. ; light, with fine sultry summer weather. for no one could for a moment be deceived by the notion that such was the case. It might have an invi diouz appearance, but it would have no effect in one out of every thousand transactions. It would be mere work of supererogation. The other alter• native alluded to by the Times,. viz., that " a legal tender" should be prominently affi'ed on all Bank of England notes, is unexceptionable ; in fact, there is no reason why a memorandum stating the actual law on the subject may not be affixed at the mere will and pleasure of the Directors ! e. • 7, qr ! q_: slS4 • e•-•Y We should greatly prefer that there should be no " legal tender" but with purely national notes issued under the authority of Parliament, and re ceivable by every tax collector. These notes be ing based on public credit, and guaranteed not only by the total amount of property in the hands of every British subject, but even by a mortgage of their labour, would be placed beyond the possi bility of the faintest breath of suspicion. It would be the interest and duty of every tax payer to maintain their value unimpaired, and any run. would at once be suppressed by the united action of the people. The Bank of England notes would then go on credit, like those of all other establishments ; and we believe that they would seldom, if ever, be rejected, unless under very peculiar circumstances indeed. LONDON, SATURDAY, JUNE 27, 1857. But what does the Times mean by the asser tion, that "14,000,0001,, or thereabouts4which is the issue allowed to the Bank, has been clearly as certained to be the limit to which a currency based merely on securities can be carried, with the certainty that its par value, in the Money Market will be maintained I" We join issue with the Times as to this extraordinary statement, in every possible way. There is not a particle of evidence in favour of the amount thus arbitrarily selected, And it is quite clear that if it were the right sum in 1844, it must be totally inadequate in 1857, when the population has increased, and commercial transactions have been enhanced in a still larger ratio. We find from the " NERMeiRCII tables," constructed from data supplied by Mr. J. G. HUBBARD, formerly Gover nor of the Bank of England, that ever since 1851 the notes in the hands of the public—or "out standing circulation," have increased on an aver age by no less than 4,000,000/. sterling. This sum has consequently been unduly abstracted from the Bank reserve. If, then, 14,000,0001. could be safely issued in 1851, it is manifest that 18,000,000/. might be issued with equal safety in 1857. The natural expan sion of trade has absorbed a much larger propor tion of the circulating medium, as may be easily conceived from the simple and indisputable fact, that the declared value of our exports has in creased since 1848 by more than 125 per cent., or from 51,000,0001. to 120,000,0001. sterling. So far for the propriety of retaining the abitrary standard selected in 1844. But as to the other part of the statement that "it is capable of demonstration that under no imaginable contingencies can the exchangeable value of the issues of the Bank be for a moment jeopardised," we repeat what we have already proved—on the 14th March last, from unexcep tionable evidence, that the Bank might have been compelled to suspend payment of its notes, while nearly 8,000,0001. of useless bullion was stored in its coffers, and that such would have been the case on the 23d October, 1847, when the notes and bullion, not only for the parent establishment, but all its branches, amounted to less than two millions, while the deposits of the London bankers alote, which would have been withdrawn at a moment's notice, but for the virtual suspension of the Act by the Government letter, exceeded that sam, and that of the general pub, lie was sevenfold the amount. In fact, the Go. vernor and Deputy-Governor of the Bank admitted, in their evidence, that the Bank must have closed if more than 1,600,000/. had boon demanded. We have thus pointed out the fallacy of the arguments by which the Leviathan attempts to sustain the re strictions. Butt as " coming events cast their shadows before," its admissions may be accepted as auspicious omens of important changes being inaugurated in the unwise and impolitic law, that has paralysed British industry, and frequently re* duced merchants, manufacturers, and traders, to the verge of ruin. The Ministers' Money Bill has passed through the Lords, and that obnoxious impost will now, within a few days, be interred in a dishonoured grave. The Earl of DERDT is entitled to great credit for the manly and straightforward course he pursued. Having taken the sense of a very full house on a former occasion, and finding the views of the majority adverse to those which he so ably and eloquently advocated, he bowed to the deci sion, and withdrew from all further opposition to the measure. Ho might have offered a vexatious and factious resistance to its progress. He might have occasioned consi. derable loss of time ; but perceiving that it was condemned by both Houses, he very properly withdrew from the contest, and has thus entitled himself to the thanks of the community at large. We may now congratulate Mr. Commissioner MIIRPIEY and Mr. FAUN, whose names will ever remain associated with the bill, on the important and felicitous result of their agitation, We may congratulate the people of Ireland, of all shades and varieties of religious opinion, on this fertile source of discord—this social nuisance—being for ever abolished. A flagrant grievance has been virtually removed, and, if nothing else were effected, the Session of 1857 would not be alto gether unproductive of sound and wholesome le gislation.

INDIA, GREAT REVOLT OF MOHAMMEDAN DUBLIN, Friday. —Her Gracious Majesty is expected at Cork and Killarney in the course of the summer. A Cork paper states the grounds for the report current in that city. The course taken by the Royal yacht in her recent visit to Queenstown and Bantry Bay, and the soundings she has made, have given rise to the belief that her Majesty purposes visiting Cork and Killarney this,,,sumirier. The yacht ran up Bantry Bay and in between the islands to Glengariff, closely examining the locality. BALL AT THE TIRUSH EMBASST.—Last night Madame Muslin's gave a ball at the Turkish Embassy in Bryan ston-square, which was attended by a brilliant circle, exceeding 500 parsonages of rank, among whom were some of the leadieg generals and officers who took part in the late war in the East. All the preparations for the fete were complete, the rooms being effulgently lighted and ornamented by beautiful flowers. A sumptuous supper awaited the company at one o'cicck. Refresh ments were supplied in two rooms throughout the night. It was close on one o'clock when the carriages discon tinued to set down company. THE NEW Blum or QUEEN'S COUNSEL—We under stand that contiderable dissatisfaction exists among the junior equity oar on account of the new batch of Queen's Counsel being confined exclusively to the cost mon law bar. Two or three leading equity juniors are well known to desire, and to have made application to the L ird Chtncellor with a view of obtaining, the honour of silk ; and it is generally thought that were his lordship to accede to their request, both the profession and the public would be gainers. A number of pottery works have been established in the neighbourhood of Toole, in Dorsetshire, for the manufacture of fire brick and drain-pipes, and an archi tectural pottery has been established at Hamworthy, near the above-named town, where a more refined and artistic trade viii be carried on. The plastic clays found in Branksea Idand are found to be rich in alumina, and the erection of alum works was contemplated there, and has only teen delayed in consequence of the embar rassments of Colonel Waugh, the owner of that island. SUICIDE n ARSENlO.—Yesterday Mr. Baker held an inquest at the London Hospital on the body of Wil liam Rush, au'd 40, who, when suffering fr sm delirium tremens, purclwied a quarter of a pound of arsenic, and swallowed tie larger portion of it. The arsenic was bought at theshop of Mr. Meldola, chemist, in Leman street, and tee jury appended to their verdict of tempo rary insanity their opinion " that the conduct of Mr. Meldola was aiglaly reprehensible for selling arsenic un mix3cl and urtoloured, as required by the act of Parlia ment." THE TEMPR GARDENS.—Mr. S. Broome, the gar. dener of the Imple Gardens, last year wrote to a con temporary shrwing the good effects produced upon the flowers underbis care by the suppression of the smoke nuisance. re was, however, told by some t o wa it till the preserb year, and then see if th e gar d ens con tinued to improve, as it was asserted that last year was an unpreedented one for foliage all round London.

It occupies seven saloons in the Government palace, and proves produce articles o f l uxury w hi c h are that manufactures in Poland are in an advanc e d s t a t e , and that they highly esteemed in Russia. It also contains beautiful objects in gold, silver, and other metals from Moscow.

STATUE TO JAMES WATT AT MANOMESTER.—Yester day morning a bronze statue to James Watt, the inventor of the team engine, erected in front of the Manchester Infirmary, and grouping with the statues previously erected to Wellington, Peel, and Dalton, was formally inaugurated. The mayor and members of the corpora tion, attended by some of the leading scientific men of the town, were present, and some thousands of people were there to witness the uncovering of the memorial, which took place amidst great cheering. The statue is a sitting figure, corresponding with the one of Dr. Dalton, and is copied from the marble figure by Chan trey, in Westminster Abbey. ft was copied by Theed, and was cast by Messrs. Robinson and Cotten], of Pimlico. SOLDIERY. MASSACRE OF ENGLISH AT DELHI. Proclamation of a Mogul Prince. TRIESTE, FRIDAY. The steamer America arrived here to-day, hav ing made the passage in 121 hours from Alexan dria. The Vectis, with the Marseilles mail, left Alexandria on the evening of the 20th. The dates from India are—Bombay, May 27 ; Calcutta, May 18 ; Madras, May 25. The mutiny in the Bengal army had spread in a most alarming manner. At Meerut, the 11th and 20th Regiments of Native Infantry had united with the 3d Light Cavalry in open revolt. After some bloodshed they had been dispersed by European troops ; but they had fled to Delhi, where they were joined by the 38th, 54th, and 74th Native Infantry. Delhi was in possession of the mutineers, who had massacred almost all the Europeans without regard to age or sex, plundered the bank of 15 lacs of rupees, and proclaimed the son of the late Mogul Emperor as King. Disturbances had also broken out at Ferozee. pore, but had been suppressed. ' The Rajah of Gwalior had placed his troops al the disposal of the British Government. Government was taking aetive measures to sup press the revolt, and concentrating troops suffi cient to overwhelm the mutineers around Dalhi. The 34th Native Infantry was disbanded on the 7th of May. Oude is tranquil. Troops from Ceylon have reached Calcutta, and the native Princes are offering their contingents. The prospects of the coming coffee crops at Ceylon are good. The Governor's proclamation states that the railway agreement will be carried out immediately. Lord Elgin and suite, in the Singapore, left Galle for China on the 27th of May. The Punjaub, with a wing of the 64th Regi ment, from Bushire, was to leave Galle for Cal eutta on the 20th of May. The Nizam.of the Deccan died on the 19th of May. At Bombay the money market was much higher and the banks had raised their rates of interest. Transactions in the import market were very limited. Exchange was 2s. Id. 1, At Calcutta there was no partieular change in either exports or imports. Government secu rities had advanced. Exchange was 2s. OP. to 2s. Oid • CHINA. HONG KONG, MAY 0. Great distress was caused in China by the scarcity of food. At Canton matters are still in static quo. Seven gunboats have reached here, and further reinforcements are expected. Operations will then re-commence. BRITISH BENERICENT INSTITIITION.—The anniversary 'estival of this useful institution, the object of which is to allow inoomes of 301. a year to the widows and unmarried orphan daughters of clergymen, officers in the army and navy, and other persons who have moved in a superior station in society, took place last evening at the London Tavern. Mr. Sheriff Mechi, who was in the chair, pressed the claims of the society on the support of the public, and }ifs appeal and that of other gentlemen pro duced a subscription of nearly 7001. in the course of the evening. A. grand bazaar is to be held in support of the institution on Friday and Saturday, July 3 and 4, in the grounds of Westbourne College, Bayswater-read, the programme of which preients varions/attractiow. DEATH Os' SIR T. B. LINNARD, BART.—We have to record the demise of Sir T. B Lennard, Bart., who died on Thursday morning at his town residence in Bryanstone-sluare, having within a few months reached the extreme ag e of 96 years. He was the oldest living baronet of the'Uuited Kingdom. The deceased, who was created a baronet after the Union in 1801, was son and testamentary heir of the 17th Lord Deere, whose sur name and arms he assumed by sign manual. The late baronet was t w i ce marr i e d—fi rst , i n 1787, to a daughter of the late Sir J. Aubyn ; and secondly, in 1833, to a daughter of floe late Sir Walter Stirling, widow of Mr. Henry Dawkins Milligan. The late Sir Thomas was a deputy - lieutenant of the county of Essex. He ii succeeded iu the baronetcy by his grandson Thomas. He was born in 1826, and married in 1553 to Miss Wood, daughter of the Rev. Sit .7. Page Wood, Bart. CAMERON.—Mr. Cameron, the late manager of the Royal Briti,h Bank, was brought up to the Judge's Chambers on Thursday, when an application was made on his behalf fsr additional time, to enable him to pro cure bail to meet the charges on which Is has been re cently apprehended. Mr. Simp2on, Field's a Isistant, the officer in vhose custody ho was brought to England, of the prisoner, on which the learned judge, Mr. declined, Jus tice Erie, however, the responsibility of the further charge stated that he must sign the commitment. Mr. Cameron was thereupon taken by the tipstaff to the Queen's Prisor. It should be mentioned that the bail re quired in the ease of Mr. Cameron is 24,000/.—viz., himself in 1 2,000/., with two securities for 6,0001. each. Eight thousand pounds was the sum demanded in the case of Mr. Macleod and the other directors. The cap ture of Mr. Cameron, we hear, was effected under rather peculiar circumstances, reflecting no eniall credit on the person employed in tracking his movements. TRIESTE RAILWAY.—The section of the railway bo. tween Laybach and Trieste having been completed, a trial trip was made on it a few days ago. When opened for traffic, complete railway communication between Vienna and Trieste will be established. An immense aqueduct has been constructed on the heights of the Karat to supply the neighbouring stations with water. The neighbourhood of Foochow continued to be disturbed by rebels. It was feared that serious injury will thereby be caused to trade. At Hong Kong exchange was at 55.; at Shang hai, on the 20th of April, it was at 7s. 3d. to 7s. 4d. RUSSIA. BERLIN, JUNE 26. The new Russian tariff came into operation on the 22d of this month. FRANCE. PARIS, FRIDAY EVENING.

Fould having, during hi s l a t e s t ay i n ngdand, arranged this proof of the continuance of a personal friendship between the two Courts— formed whilst the Queen and Prince Albert were the guests of the Emperor and Empress of the French—and of the nation. BOURSE, June 26.—The Bank of France has decided that 60 per cent. instead of 40 would be the advance on the marketable price of Rente, and 40 per cent. instead of 20 on shares, but the deci sion has had no favourable influence on the Bourse.

No sooner have we settled the Persian war than a revolt which had been spreading like smouldering ashes among the Native Indian Army has at length suddenly burst into a flame. Three native regiments, one of cavalry, joined with two of infantry, at Meerut, broke out into open mutiny, but were speedily dispersed by the European troops. The mutineer; however, fled in the direction of Delhi, the ancient capital of the Great MOGUL, and were there joined by three other regiments of Native Infantry, the 38th, 54th and 74th. The suddenness of this immediate fraternising plainly proves a previous con cert—a foregone conclusion of desperate conspiracy. So much so, that the mutineers not only pro ceeded to massacre all the Europeans within their reach, but they actually proclaimed the Sox of the lab Emperor of MoQIL, King. This was doing the thing in a bold as well as in a bloody spirit. But they shall have their day of reckoning before long if they have not had it already, for there is no safe compromise with treason, but death. The Government in India was actively engaged in devising plans for the immediate suppression of this fanatical outburst. But we suspect that they will have more work on their hands than they are sufficiently prepared for. We have little doubt that our wary friends the Russians are at the bottom of all this widely spreading insurrection. They and the Chinese work hand-in-hand for our destruction in the East ; and well do we deserve it for our German sycophancy to Russia and her intrigues. When Russia had done her utmost to humble us in her machinations on Turkey, and at length roused our real vengeance, for it was all but cat's paws at the beginning, under Lords ABERDEEN and RAGLAN, the most incompetent man that ever commanded an army—a general who never commanded a regiment in battle ! when Russia found at last that we were pre pared with gunboats, and all that could and would have humbled her—why, she worked upon Our German weakness by Prussian guile, and so saved herself from destruction through the trea• chery of those who betrayed the best interests of humanity and freedom for the fader/and. Well, we have now our second reward blossom ing in bloody revolt among our Indian army. The Russians will never let us rest until India be wrested from our grasp, and then what hopes re main for the future ? Why every German slave, and other slaves nearer home, would rise in savage delight and conspire toward the downfall of the only free country in the world, and their hatred would be but more intensely quickened by their avarice to clutch our gold and treasures ! Even old BLUCHER, the repre sentative of our friend and ally, Prussia. while riding along the Strand, after the Battle of Waterloo, exclaimed to his wondering friends, as they looked at our well-stored shops—" Mine Got 1 what a City for to` sack .1" Yes, if that was the feeling of our friends, what must that be which actuates the hearts of our enemies t That we must look to ouselvos, and trust to ourselves, in this outbreak in India, and that with promptitude and stern decision, there can be no doubt. It has come to "do or die " -wand do we must without hesitation or doubt. There is a screw loose somewhere in our management, and it must and shall be set to rights firmly and promptly. There is no halfway-house on the bloody road of rebellion—the journey may be long and rugged, but it must be quickly trod, and with a vengeance and strength that will make the very dust of our advance testify to the ear *witness of our speed. There is nothing to fear, but there is much to lament. Let us be wiser in future. Notwithstanding its bullionist tendencies, the Times occasionally makes very awkward admiss- sions, which completely upset the arguments of the currency quacks of the Mercator, or Lord OTZRSTONE school. In October, 1855, it candidly confessed, that so far as the internal commerce of the country was concerned, a deposit of Govern ment Stock, or the fact that the notes were re ceivable in payment of taxes, would abundantly suffice, without the deposit of a single ounce of gold ! It yesterday wont even further. After detailing some of the points insisted on by mone tary reformers, it adds—" To the astonishment, perhaps, of those by whom they are brought for ward, the answer, even in the Times, must be, that they are indisputable. There ought to be no legal restrictions whatever on the issue of notes ! If this is what is meant by Free-trade in money, the ashes of the advocates of that principle might at once be granted. In strict consistency every m an should be at liberty t 3 make what promises he pleases, leaving the public also at liberty to place faith in them, or otherwise at their own dis sretion If this be so, cadit questio. The acts of 1844, and, so far as Scotland and Ireland are concerned, that of 1845 cannot be supported for a single moment. They constitute a number of restric tions on banking, tying down certain establish ments existing at the time of these acts, to certain fixed issues, and preventing any other banks from being created with powers of issue to any the most trifling extent—no matter how un exceptionable may be the securities which they are prepared to offer 1 It never was for a moment contemplated that such notes should be made "a legal tender !" None but those of the Bank of England possessed that privilege, and it was merely to a limited ex, tent, not being in force at the offices of the Bank itself, or its branches. It was merely for public convenience, that these notes were made legal tenders, that vexatious refusals might not be made by litigious parties for the mere sake of creating costs. The credit of the Old Lady for all domestic purposes has always been perfect. No one would refuse to accept payment in " the Worthless rags" which she issued. And we ven t° say that currency reformers will gladly accept • compromise, by which the legal tender may be •bolished, provided a power of unlimited issue be conferred on the Bank itself, and all private es tablishments, who shall deposit satisfactory security for the amount which they may think proper to put into circulation, beyond the fixed issues now permitted. It would be a very unnecessary formality to s t am p uotes with the words "not a legal tender," IitIMORANDUM: HORSE-GUARDS, S.W., JUNE 26.

THE PRINCIPALITIES. A. lettei from Bucharest of the 13th, in the National Gazette of Berlin, saps :—" The in ternational commission are now endeavouring to mato up for. lost time by having sittings of several :hours - every two days, at which Safet Effendi, the Turkish representative, presides. The drawing up of the instructions for the elections is not yet completed, and yesterday the director at the Secretary of State's office was summoned before the commission to give information on the subject. Every one is astonished that a question of such im portance should remain so long in suspense. The real.csuse of the delay is the irresolution of the Porte. The moment the. firman of convocation was received the caimacan pointed out the difficul ties which existedrelative to domicile and to landed property, and demanded further instructions on the subject. The Porte replied that Safet Effendi would give the instructions required, but when he arrived he avoided doing so. He went to Jassy, and on his return laid the affair before the commis sion, but no decision has yet been come to." DENMARK. A letter from Vienna, 21st, in the Hamburg News, says :—" DespatCh es were received here the day before yesterday from Count Rechberg, presi dent of.the Germanic Diet, touching the confer ences which took place last week between him and the Count de Montessny on the Danish question. We learn from a good sou rce th a t th e great G erman powers do not object to the mediation of France, on condlition however, that no favour be shown t o Denmark. ' Moreover, according to M. de Rech betes despatches, M. de Montessny appears to have declared that his Government is convinced of the juStice of the claims put forth by the Duchies." The Second.

DOUGLAS JEBROLD.— S ome strange misapprehensions prevail respecting the private affairs of the late Mr. Douglas Jerrold. It was posted on the pillars in our Exchange Newsroom, in a telegraphic message, that he had left his family without a penny, and this statement was borrowed from the London papers of the day. The report originated in the general, but absurl, notion that a literary man is, necessarily, only one remove from a pauper ' • and in the announce ment that Mr. Dickens, Mr. Thackeray, and other friends, had resolved to give a series of entertainments for—it was alleged—the benefit of Mr. Jerrold's Mr. Dickens, however, simply intended to mark the respect which ho and ail his friends entertain for the largely-gifted man on whom the grave bad prematurely closed, by promptly raising an acceptable memorial to his memory—nothing more. Mr. Jerrold was not only a hard-working man, but a prudent one. His life was insured for 2,5001., and his widow—instead of depend ing on sympathy or charity—will have an income of about 6001. a year. His sons are in a position to add to, not diminish, the provision made for their admirable mother, and the daughter has been placed in affluence by the thoughtful affection of her late father-in.lavr. Mr. Jerrold's family would have been pained by the allusion to their domestic concerns, did they not know that the deceased was a public man, in whom every one took an interest, and that the mis apprehension to which we have referred proceeded from the honest admiration of gentlemen who' would never willingly do aught that could even remotely hurt the feelings of the relatives of the man they loved while living, and mourn now that he is dead. Through life, Mr. Jerrold in the spirit of a noble independence, dreaded being dependent himself, or leaving his family dependent on any one ; and shortly before his dea it t h h he had a serious conversation on this very subject w his brother-in-law, Mr. Copeland, lessee of uur Theatre Royal. Mr. Copeland sat by his bed when he died ; and a few days since, when the Liverpool Dramatic Society waited on him, to offer their serv ices in nettin g up an amateur play for the benefit of Mr. Jerre I.l's family, Mr. Copeland eaid "No, his family need no such assistance, and I cannot grant the theatre for any such purpose ; but if you wish to co-operate with Mr. Dickens in his direction, I can see no possible objection." These are plain factr, and their publication is due to the memory of the man who is gone from us.—Liverpool Doily IV-fivst THE BALLOT MOTION. TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN.

Your correspondent refers to the necessity for tbe inspection, by general officers, of this force with refe; cues to its efficiency ; not apparently being aware, beat ever since its formation, it has been thus inspected bien nially by general officers, at all the large stations Wh t e h re the great mass of the men are enrolled, and, nt i -- ; smaller stations by field officers, expressly deputed by them for the purpose, and that by each of these office-- coefidential reports are forwarded to the Horse Gua rds ; on the fitness of the men for garrison duty, their Wen";ance, ance, capacity for d r ill, an d every ot h er part i c ular e a which it is desirabl e th a t the Commander-in. Chief sho e ' be informed. Consequent on these reports, and on oo th r e inspections in each a lt erna t e y ear ma d e by the 113- ‘ office, the number of men to be enrolled at each station is determined. It augurs very little for your correspondent's 1501: ledge of the subject to which he professes to direct lie attention, not to be aware of so simple a fact as t' i 'd nor that this very General officer, on whom he proper ° , to devolve the inq u i r y; h as an opportun i ty o f see te r : the force in each district on all occasions when they out under arms, and, I believe, has at several timed' seen them.
