A decree had been issued authorising Messrs. A. Courson and L. V. D. Affonseca to form a com pany for the construction of railraa,ds upon the American plan in the Mikan province of Angola, the Portuguese Government making'considerable grants of land and mining privileges to the cora puly, which was said to be a Parisian project.

THE PACIFIC. By the West Indian . steamer Atrato, arrived at Southampton yesterday, we have files of Panama papers to the 22nd of August. The steamship New Granada arrived at Panama on the 21st of August with the South Pacific mail, and advives from Callao July 12, Valparaiso, July 31. From Valparaiso we learn that an amnesty was granted to all peraons who on account of the part they took in the events of 1851. have been, or may be, indicted, and who reside at present in the country. The leaders of the Conservative party, who have hitherto supported the Government, and the Liberals have united and formed a strong party against the Government. They demand a change in the Cabinet and a more liberal line of policy. Late advices announces that the Ministers had presented theirresignation, and ithad been accepted by . the President. Nothing is said as to their successors, and some persons are of opinion that the new Cabinet will not be appointed until Sept. Dates f, om Callao are to August 12, which give intelligence of the assassination of Mr. S. E. Suli van, British Minister at Lima. The following par ticulars are from the Callao correspondent of the Panama Star and Herald : "News has just been sent from Lima that Mr. Suliven, the British Minister, was assassinated by s:x Peruvians. The Vixen has gone to Palta in search of Admiral Bruce. It is supposed that he was murdered for the British interference in the mater of the Tumbes and Loa. I have just re ceived the particulars of the affair :—Mr. Sulivan was dining alone, when six men, masked, entered and fired three shots, one of which is fatal, having entered the groin and passed up into the lungs. After the deed was done one of them exclaimed, ' I am now satisfied,' and then they all disappeared. As yet no one is suspected for it. There is a de sire on the part of the Peruvians to put off the whole matter as the result of an intrigue with a lady. Be that as it ml.y, the Government feel alarmed as to what the result will be. The steamers Ucalya and Tumbes are going south to bring back General Castilla, and probably some troops." "Callao, August 12, 3 p.m.—A Frenchman and a ilegro have been just arrested on suspicion of be iug accomplices of the assassination of Mr. Suli van. There are not the slightest hopes of his re covering. It is now reported that the act was committed by some of the most respectable persons in Lima. However, I will give you the rumour. It appears a short time ago a ball was given by one of the leading families in Lima, and that Mr. Suli van took there a well known prostitute that he has kept atime as his mistress ; the gentlemen present remonstrated with him, calling his atten lt long rem atten tion to the fact that it was a gross insult to all persons present ; to which ha is said to have re plied that she was as good as any woman present pr in Lima, and that they were all a set of prosti tutes. Are ffard of 100 ounces is offered for the apprehension of the murderers. The steamer will be searched by the Retribution as Boons as she gets out of the harbour." ' The conduct of the Peruvian officials towards American vessels had called for the interference of the United States Minister. Private letters state that the presence of au American vessel of war was much needed on the coast. The Government of Ecuador bad notified its ad hesion to the convention entered into between Peru and Chili in September, 1856. General Castillo, on his return to Callao, had been placed under arrest by the Council of Mini sters, who exercised the supreme power during the absence of the President. Castillo had published a letter complaintng of this outrage. The matter was referred to the convention, which disclaimed the action of the Council. Her British Majesty's steam-frigate Retribution THE RECENT GREAT BANIeFAILURES. LONDON AND EASTERN BANKING COR PORATION, ROYAL BRITISH AND , TIP PERARY BANKS. On Saturday a meeting wiis adirettisecl. to take place at the chambers of Vice-Chancellor Sir Wil liam Page Wood, for the purpose of hearing all par ies on the petition presented for the dissolution and wi ding-up of the Loudon and Eastern Bank ing Corporation ; but it appears that, to suit the convenience of all parties. the hearing of the peti tlnn has been adjourned to Monday, 21st inst., when it will come before Vice-Chancellor Wood specially at Ipswich. It may be mentioned that this is the first case of the kind where a company formed for commercial purposes in British India has been brought under the operation of the English' winding-up law, and a question is likely to be raised'_as to whether a company constituted for trading pnrposas in India is amenable to the Joint Stock Comp,tnies Wind ing up Act, although that act contains a proviso that every trading corporation; whose place of busi ness is in the British dominions, comes within its scope ; albeit its business is conducted in any of our territories abroad. The places of business of the London and Eastern. Banking Corporation were as follows Council-street, Calcutta ; Forbes street, Bombay ; Caunon-stree, London ; We st bourne-terrace ; 20, Pall-mall, and 44, Mark-lane. The corporation, as it appears from the official list of shareholders,iconsis`ed of 98 proprietors. Of this number no fewer than 27 we're majors and li eu t en ant-colonels in the Eait India C mapaly's service, resident at home and abroa I ; 20 native in , rchants, two local judges, and the remainder (between 30 and 40) resident in England and India. It will be necessary, as there are so many share holders resident in India, to appoint a winding-up agency in that country, in connection with the one in this, which will tend to increase the expense and inconvenience in connection with the winding-up. Should the Vice-Chancellor issue an order de lar ing that the corporation is to be wound up in Chan cery, that operation will in all probability be con ducted by Mr. R. P. Harding, who has had the carriage, under similar .circumstances, of the affairs of the oyal British Bank. It has been suggested that the affairs of the London and Eastern Banking Corporation should be thrown into bankrup . cy, and if this were to be done, there would be a repeti tion of precisely the same unseemly collision be tween the jurisdiction of the Courts of Chancery and Bankruptcy that occurred in the case of the Royal British Bank, thereby doubling the costs of winding-up, to be paid, by the unfortunate share -holders, to the advantage wholly and solely of the lawyers concerned. • The following circular has been, issued to the shareholders during the past' week by certain soli- citors : " 25, Throgmorton-street, London, Sept. 4,1857 " Sir,—You will doubtless have been informed by the public papers that a petition has been presented to the Court of Chancery for the winding-up of the affairs of London and Eastern Banking Corporation. " We are informed that this step hat been taken frora a strong conviction that is the only course by which the shareholders can have justice done to tketn, and by which they can secure an equal contribution towards the liabilities, and a strict and impartial investigation into the transactions of the directors which have brought the bank to its present position. " We have long since been instructed by the agents of several shareholders resident abroad, to adopt active measures to protect their interests ; and although wedid not think it expedient to allow our clients to be the petitioners to the Court of Chancery, we are nevertheless fully satisfied that a step in - the right direction has been taken. " Experience bas taught us that it would be impossible to obtain an equal voluntary contribution from a large body of shareholders; that the only result of such au attempt would be to throw the whole of the liabilities upon the shareholders; and that without the coercion of the Court of Chancery, a large number would altogether escape from contributing. The effect of such an attempt would be to extract forthwith from the pockets of the willing ahareholders heavy calls on their shares, leaving them at the same time still exposed t 3 legal proceedings on the part of the creditor, and with the certain pros pect that after all they would bedriven into the Court of Chancery, to obtain an equal and just contri bution from those who would other wise avoid making any payment. Without tie aid of the strong arm of the law, it would be impossible to obtain a strict and searching investigation into the trans actions of those by whom the affairi of the bank have been conducted, and if it should ho di,"covered, as there is great reason to suspect, that the funds of the bank have been irregularly dealt with, it is only by aid of the Court of Chancery that the shareholders can compel the persons responsible for such transactions, to refued any monies improperly applied, and prevent the whole of the heavy liabilities of the bank from falling on the innocent share holders. ' " Upon an order being made for the dissolution and winding up of the bank, we think that the shareholders will be best protected by appointing independent gentle. men as official managers." On Saturday it was understood that another direc tor, a large shareholder, Is absent. It is stated ou the one hand that the bank is only carrying on bu sine:s nominally in Threadneedle-street, where the London offices have been removed, and on the other that it is transacting no business whatever beyond that of preparing itself to ba wound up. It is state I that the bank has hitherto been receiving pecuniary assistance from the Oriental Bank on certain term, but that, in consequence of the improbability of the calls being responded to, and the non-realis Olen of the securities, the Oriental Bank now hesita e to render further assistance. It is rumoured that it was at one time in contemplation by the Oriental Bank to purchase the business of the London and Eastern, and the circumstance of their rendering this assistance somewhat favours the assumption as to this being the ulterior object intended. Some of the shareholders; it is said, have given prornitisory notes in payment of calls, but it is queztionable whether, when the t;me comes, if these notes will be honoured. The liabilities, as far as can yet be ascertained, amount to .about a quarter of a million, exclusive of securities. THE ROYAL BRITISH BANK. As regards the present position of matters in the Royal British Bank, it is understood that all re quisite exertions are being used in carrying out amicable conferences with the unfortunate share holders in preference to resorting to vexatious and ruinous litigation. A vast amount of intercommuni cation and correspondence is going on between them and the official manager of the Court of Chancery, Mr. P. Harding, relative to the amount they can contribute towards defraying the liabilities of the bank, and in many cases the as.s'stance of friends has been sought to enable them to make some kind of contribution. These compromises are being carried out under the immediate dire3tion of Vice- Chancellor Sir T. Kindorsley. The liability of those shareholders who took shares after the sup plemental charter was obtained, being supposed to be governed by the decision of the court iu Brock well's case, which inieffeet relieves nearly one-half of the responsible shareholders, and appears to give them the right to clam their money back again, will, it is understood, be taken on appeal to the. House of Lords by the other half of the share holders. It is manifestly of importance that the law of such a state of things should be formally settled, since, under the p resent decision, it is in the power of share holders who may have received dividends on their shares to - say they were induced by frau d to _ take those shares, and if so, many s h a reholders in othe r abortive companies will be able, while rec eivin g dividends, to repudiate their liabilities to contribute to the losses. Al though under the act pi ssed last session, which gave shareholders abroad the liberty to return and cuter into compromise, it is stated that a large number THE WEST INDIA MAIL. oany's steamship Atrato, Southampton yesterday West India and Pacific Lloyd, RN., Admiralty The Royal.

The Atrato experienced fine weather throughout the voyage, with head winds, up to the 10th inst., since which she has had winds from the north and north-east. She brings 66 passengers; including the mister, first and second mates, and 10 passen gira of the American ship Harkaway, burnt at sea. On freight the Atrate has 871,252 dole. in specie, of which 420,837 cols. is in silver and 450,415 dole. in gold ; jewellery value 50U/. sterling ; watches value 911. 10s. ; copper coin value 801. ; and a cargo consisting of 466 serous of cochineal, 149 serons of bark, 12 serons of skins, 48 bags of cocoa, 194 bales of tobacco, 16 packages of coffee, 6 bales of sareaparille, 7 casks of beeswax, 18 packages of hats, 10 cases of tortoiseshell, and 70 packages of sundries. On the Ist instant, died on board the Atra.to, aged 59 years, Mr. William Davies, of Dominica,. a large landedproprietor, and a member of the Executive Council of that island ; the deceased had been a resident of many years at Dominica, and was much respected there. Our files from Jamaica extend to the 27th ult., the - day on which the steamer left. The Legisla ture was not in session, and would not be before the usual time in October. The Executive Com mittee had been very assiduous in their delibera tioks as to what measures it may be expedient-to introduce when the Legislature meets. Fever was very prevalent, but morta,lity. slight. The island was very quiet, and trade generally dull, but mining operations were very encouraging. From De Cordova's llfercaretite Intelligences of the latest date we learn that sugar was scarce, and Wes of fine quality had been made at 325. per 100 lb. Sales had been reported of a few barrels of alewives from the northide at 20s. Gd. per barrel. Irish butter, ex Sea Rover, had been sold at 14 d. to 15d. per lb. ; all the late receipts of American bad been taken at ls. Since last mail there had been almost an entire cessation of business ; the market was barn of many articles, and prices had generally d , shined. Last arrivals of flour were held at 425. ; hams at 7d. to 9d., according to quality. Mess pork bad been sol at 1265., but that price c3uld net be r _alized at latest dates. The wining inte rests of the island were looking UP, Cordova, re porting a recent purchase of 3,000 shares of the Ellersl'e and Bardowie Company at 10s. (par value) part of which the purchaser had received an offer tor at an advance. Applications for 800 further shares had been declined by the company.

From Demerara we learn that the Court of Policy, had met twice since the last mail, and had taken under consieeration the proclamation for the for mation of divisions and the distribution of arms under the Estates' Arms Ordinaucer which had recently come into operation. The proposed mea sure was looked upon favourably, if carried out with firmness. Mr. A. W. Perot had been unani modsly re-elected Mayor of Georgetown. S everal of the persons, men and women, i m plicated in the outrage upon the Governor and Mrs. Wodehouse on their late departure from the colony had been arrested, and liberated on bail, to take their trials at the next session of the Supreme Court for riot. The Hon. W. B. Wolseley, Acting Government Secretary, and his lady left for England by the pi esent packet, of er a residence of over 21 years, during which the bon. eeutl9man gained the respect and goodwill of all classes. Mr. A. F.' Gore, the Acing Assistant Government Secretary, also left by this packet on leave of absence. The weather during 'the fortnight had been wet, and thunder storms frequent. Tho planters were anxiously looking for, dry weather. Business was dull, freight scarce, and tonnage abundant. On the subject of the gold discoveries, the Royal Gazette of the 25th ult. says :-- " The gold mines at tipata are still the engross ing -theme in the colony. Many parties are anxious to try their fortune et the diggings ; but in the meantime they are prudently waiting until a direct route is opened up hence to the mines. A com mission, consisting of Sir W. H. Holmes, the Hon. Dr. Blair, Mr. W. H. Campbell, Mr. IVlTlintock, and other gentlemen, will start for the diggings to-morrow. They will proceed hence to the Warina, and, after ascsnding that river as far as it is navig able, will strike across the country to the Cuyuni, and proceed thence to the gold mines on the Yurnari._ They will endeavour to find out traces of gold in the country as they pass along, and will astertain the exact locality of the present diggings, and whether they are on the British or on the Venezuelan territory. It is supposed that their journey will occupy them about two months. There is every reason to believe that the country through which they propose to travel will be found to be rich in auriferous wealth. Their course will lie through the very tract of country in which the old Dutch geographers placed the Lake Parima, supposed to be the site of Sir Walter Raleigh's famous El Dorado. A great deal of interest at taches to this expedition, and it is possible that it may throw much light upon some dark passages in the history of that gifted but unfortunate man." At Trinidad every hope existed of the projected railway being constructed. The estimates and plans were being matured. There had been heavy and frequent rains during -the fortnight, and the wea ther was on the whole favourable for cane cultiva tion. Nothing to report in produce.

CRIME IN THE METROPOLITAN :DISTRICYS, It appears by the returns of the gaol of Newg,ate preparatory to the commencement of the September sessions of the Central Criminal Court this morning, that there are 75 prisoners for trial on the first edi tion of the calendar, the number of the correspond ing session of last year being 100. This diminut;on is no doubt to be attributed to the more extended operation of the Summary Jurisdiction Act, and it is to be feared that it does not 'in reality indicate any actual decrease in crime. Although the number of prisoners for trial is rather smaller than usual, the cases to b 3 disposed of at this session are of a very serious character, there being three charges of wilffil murder; several of cutting and wounding with intent to murder, burglary, and the other higher classes of offences. Two of the charges of murder are of a very serious character. A young man named Cornelius Denny is charged with mur dering a young Italian in the Hampstead-road by stabbing him in the billy with a knife. A second case of murder is that of a man named Parsons, who while confined in the infirmary of Horse- monger-lane Gaol, in a sudden paroxysm of rage destroyed a fellow-prisoner in that establishment, and the defence to be set up for the prisoner will be that at the time he committed the act he was not in a state of mind to be criminally responsible. The remaining case of murder is the painful one of the Italian courier, Antonio de Salvi, who stands charged upon the coroner's inquisition with the wilful murder of a person named Robertson, in the Queen's Bench Prison. This prisoner, it will be recollected, was originally committed upon a charge of wounding the deceased with intent to murder him, and although it was known from the moment the injury was inflicted that it was one of such a character-thaf, death was sure to ensue, and that the case would resolve itself eventually into a charge of wilful murder, Mr. Baron Martin, Who presided at the August session of the Central Criminal Court, insisted upon trying the prisoner upen the indict ment then before the court, and he was convicted of wounding with intent to do grievous bodily harm, and sentenced to 15 years' penal servitude. The prisoner, since he has received the notification that he will have to undergo the second ordeal of a trial upon a charge of wilful murder, has complained bitterly that he should have been tried upon the other charge, as he and his friends fully expecied that the first trial would have settled the matter ; but it is of course impossible for the court to decline to take cognisance of a char g e of wilful murder, and particularly when committed under such very seri ous circumstances ; and Mr. Pollard, the assistant solicitor to the Treasury, has, it is understood', re ceived instructions to prefer a bill of indictment against the prisoner for that offence. De Salvi, who is a Roman catholic, has been constantly visited by a Catholic priest during the last few days, and on Saturday the Rev. Mr. Goddard, his last master, who appears to take very great interest in him, and who, it is said, has provided the means for retain ing', the able assistance of Mr. E. James, Q.C., to defend him, also visited the unhappy prisoner. In addition to what may be termed the ordinary cases of the session, in which the parties accused are in custody, there are several charges of public inte rest, that will have to be disposed of at this session, in which the parties are out on bail, and the most serious of these is the charge of manslaughter against some persons employed on the South Eastern Railway, arising out of the fatal accident that took place at the Lewisham station in June last, when, it will be remembered, eleven unhappy persons lost their lives. There is also a charge of perjury against two persons named Hastings and Murphy arising out of a trial for the infringement of a patent for making candles, in which it is sti there are 90 witnesses to be examined for the pro secution, and Sir F. Thesiger is specially retained as counsel, and which is expected to occupy three or four days, unless it should be prematurely disposed of by some technical objection. There is also a case to be disposed of which attracts a great deal of interest in City circles, and indeed among . the community generally as involving the sanctity of messages sent by the telegraph. Tho case referred to is a charge of libel preferred by Mr. Cadogan, the chairman of the Electric Telegraph Company, the libel complained of being an allegation that the messages 'of a politi cal character and calculated to influence the funds were not despatched in due course, but were held back in order that partiei might make use of them for stock-jobbing purposes. Under this form of charge the defendants have the privilege of plead ing a justification, and producing evidence to show that the statements made by them were true, and. this if established would exonerate them from the charge ; and it is understood that this course is intended to b 3 taken, and some singular disclosures are antic'pated. Sir Alexander Cockburn, the Chief Justice of the Common Pleas, Mr. Justice Wilke, and Mr. Baron Watson are the judges who will preside. The aldermen who will sit as second commissioners are Farebrother, Humphery, Farn comb, Sir F. G. Moon, Cubitt, and Phillips. THE IVETHER,TON COLIERY EXPLOSION. The inquests on the bodies of the. men who were killed by the explosion at the Gawu Colliery, on Thursday, were opened at Dudley, on Saturday. The bodies of the seven deceased having bean re moved to their late residences, which happened to be situate in throe separate coroners' districts (the counties of Worcester and Stafford being at this p much intermixed), separate inquests were opened on each. The evidence at all the inquests was chiefly of a formal character, and they were adjourned for a more complete investigation. At the inquest on the body of George French, the " doggie," or underground superintendent of the works, whose duty it was to examine the pit before the men went to work, one witness deposed that lamps were kept in the pit. It was the dog gie's duty to try the lamps every morning before commencing work. By a Juror—Never saw any lamps in the " whimsey," (a hut on the bank of the pit.) Saw lamps taken down into the pit after the explosion. The, juror remarked that the deceased French had told him on the very morning of the accident that he was going to work, and that there was not a lamp in the whimsey fit to go down into the pit with. Prior to the adjourned inquests, the Govern ment inspector will make a complete examination of the pit. In consequence of the accident which occurred at the Camp of Chalons, where two artillerymen were wounded in consequence of the negligence in closing the touch hole of a gun, the Emperor, who was much shocked by their misfortune, has appointed a commission to devise a plan for preventing such accidents in future. A paper mentions that M. Gustave Oppelt, a Belgian officer, has invented what he calls an obturator, which he undertakts is will perfectly close the touch - hole of a gun while it being charged.

The retirement of the wary and cautious King of Sweden, says the Berlin correspondent of the Times, from the conduct of affairs is -of unu sual importance at this moment with refe rence to the constantly increasing magnitude of the Scandinavian movements, of which the Crown Prince is known to be an ardent supporter, as is also the case with his younger brother ; for the ap proaching crisis of the conflict between-the Radical Government of Denmark and the German duchy of Holstein, now engaged in a last struggle to save itself from incorporation with the Scan dinavian kingdom, backed as it is by its Fede ral allies in Germany, will hardly fail to press upon Europe the conviction of the necessity of creating a strong Scandinavian kingdom out of Sweden, Norway, and Denmark, and of separating from the latter that German Duchy of Holstein which it is endeavouring per fas et nefas to incor porate at - the expense of every dictate of jus tice and public law. The existence of Hol stein as an integral portion of the territory attached to the Danish Crown constitutes Den mark's greatest weakness ; for its German popu lation, which owns no other feslty than to the per son of the King as their Duke, has been thoroughly estranged by the events of the last 10 or 11 years, and the unremittingattempts of the Danish Govern ment to bring it by all or any means into the same position as Schleswig. The policy, however, which with such powerful States as Russia and Austria has succeeded with Poland and Hungary has not, as yet, availed much with the comparatively powerless Denmark, and will hardly do so as long as an appeal lies from Copenhagen to the German Confederation and to Europe at large. The constant disunion of the constituent par;., of the Danish monarchy makes Denmark always dependent on foreign aid and sup port ; and this she finds in Russia, whose eventual claims to the crow a of Denmark are derived from a small portion of Holstein territory, and who ig, consequently, warmly interested in the retention of Holstein in Danish possession, and Denmark in Russian dependence. The evil consequences we felt in the late war. Denmark persisted in neutra lity, though Sweden was willing, if Denmark would have joined, to take part with us; and, bad Dm mark done so, Prussia must have clone so, much as it was opposed to her best interests. When the moment comes, which will come soon, for revising the London Protocol of 1852, it is to be hoped that our Cabinet will no longer be found playing into Russia's hands as it did then, and had done fur years before. 211 E RECENT ROBBERY OF FIVE HUNDRED POUNDS 1N LIVERPOOL. fore t m th r e . Lj . ve s rp . o m ol a P ns o fi li e c l e d - , co t t h u e t , stipendiaryis enwie Sfatuarnd hi da m y j , ag be s : trate, Thomas Pimm, Louisa, h Rice were brought up in custody of Inspector Mur phyon and several other detective officers on a charge of having been connected with the recent robbery of 5171. from the establishment of Mr. Kearns, wine and spirit merchant, Park-lane. Mr. Murphy said that on the 30th of August last be received information of an extensive robbery from the pre mises of Mr. Kearns. He went to examine the place, and found that an iron safe in the inner office, which had contained 517/., bad been opened and the money abstracted. The door of the safe had been bored through with a drill, but the bole had been too high up, and did not take effect upon the lock. The burglars, after the failure of this attempt, had proceeded to search in other pasts of the premises. In one drawer which had been broken open a duplicate key of the safe bad been found, with which the burglars bad opened the sa fe. Mr. Kearns was then examined, and stated, amount was that he left his establishment about five o'clock in the evening of Saturday, August 29. A little be fore he looked over and counted h s money which robbed,sarean and draweirs told that; went down to his 1 0 1511 t fi eli87 , d1C e .el . apc H oOesni e ltle f a o d u b n e d e t n he open, and the office in confusion. The safe was ' in iis private office. He bad examined the money found in pos ession of the prisoners, and identified sovereigns as having been in his safe; each of the coins had peculiar marks. Edward Le\ • vls, the manager of Mr. Kearn's establishment , stated that he clo sed the premises about 20 minutes past 12 o'clock on the night in question. About 11 o'clock he saw the prisoner Rice in the bar drinking, but did not notice what became of him. This witness identified ano ther sovereign which was f o und in the n prisoner's possession. Detective Sanford, of the Manchester police, stated that one evening ho and Bateman, another detective, were passing along Bedford street, Chorlton, when they observed a light in th beer-house in the street. They entered the house, and proceeded upstairs, where they found Thomas Pi mm , and took h im into custody, as well as Ric e, whom they also found. After handing the two pri soners over to other officers, the detectives pros ceeded to search the house, and found a large quart. 1 tity of tools, &c., used by burglars. The female ' prisoner was attempting to make her escape, when ' they apprehended her. On the way to the Town hall she said she bad got some money on her, and might as well give it up. She then took from under her dress a bag containing 2021. 103., out of which the marked sovereigns were picked by the witnesses. After some further evidence Mr. Mansfied corn , witted the prisoners for trial. —Liverpool Albion,
