The following sugges tion may not be out of place, should that body, although perhaps afraid to apply Mr. Bancks's system upon a large• scale in the construction of the Rivington Works, be willing to test its feasibility upon a smaller one. We want another central market, or, at all events, an en largement of St. John's Market, to abate the nuisance presented every Saturday by the occupation of Great Charlotte-street by green-grocery and orange vendors-. We propose to form another market, commencing on the north side of Roe.street, opposite the gates of St. John's Market, and running down to Whitechapel. To form , this would require the removal of Hood-street, and some other rubbishy property which is a disgrace to the town, and a few premises on the west side of 4;ll:teen-square. To this work apply Mr. Bancks's system of time currency, by issuing notes of convenient amount, payable twelve months after date, and renewable. This would be the :—Such a market, being a paying property, would in ten years redeem itself; and the town, like the people of Guernsey, would thus be in possession of a great boon, which would not have cost a shilling of principal or inte rest.

The French mer chants and others having payments to receive in England have called in the amount while it is in their power to get it coined, and the English houses with payments to make in France have been equally eager to ship gold, to avert the possibility of be ing required to pay in silver at a premium, which would be the case if the talked-of alteration should be decided upon. This being the chief cause of the movement which has been going on, it is easy to define its limits. In the first place. the drain upon us can only be to the extent of the claims of French tra ders or capitalists on this country, either in the shape of trade balances, credits, or convertible investments; and, in the next, it can only continue until the commission now sitting on the currency question shall have issued their report. If the decision, about which little doubt is entertained, notwithstand ing the panic in Paris, should be against any alteration, then the whole movement will have been unnecessary, and gold will come back by degrees as matters resume their ordinary chan nel. If, on the contrary, gold should be put out of currency, then further shipments from this side will be of no use."

We suspect that the country will not long tolerate such freaks of the Bank direction. No public body ought to have the power, in a country like this, of raising or depre ciating, at its caprice, the market value of the entire pro perty of the community. The Bank is morally as liable for the vast amounts lost, in the share and stock markets last week, as a man who has set fire to his neighbour's house is liable for the damage done by his own act. ae Festival Cho 1 Society gave a performance of the - n the Music-hall.

This oratorio was completed by Handel 2nd February, 1733, and produced 17th March of the same year. the tickets on this occasion being one guinea each. Handel is said to have considered it his best oratorio, but although a work of great merit, we think that Handel was no exception to the general rule, that authors are not the best judges of their own compo sitions. The composition preserves throughout tha unity and completeness of a sacred drama. The subject is taken from the 4th and sth chapters of Judges. The people of Israel, about 150 years after the death of Joshua, being, for their apostacy from God delivered over to the power of Jabin, King of Canaan, are oppressed oy him for 20 years. At length they entreat the Almighty to appoint them a leader against their enemies. At this period the oratorio commences with a grand chorus, " Immortal God." By means of Deborah, the prophetess, Barak is called to the office. This leads to a duet between Barak (Miss Wells) and Deborah (Miss Lyon)—" Where do thy ardours raise me," which was most exquisitely sung, and is a composition of striking beauty, perhaps one of the very best duets that Handel has written. To this succeed several recitatives and choruses of great merit, one of which we must particularly notice— CHORUS-0 blast, with thy tremendous brow, The tyrant that insults us now. KAr.ILWA' There is a vividness'and point in this chorus which were expressed by the singers with a crispness and energy so fierce that one could almost imagine that they had fancied the Canaanitish tyrant to be his Holiness the Pope. Passing over much striking music, we come to the inter view between Abinoam (Mr. H. Barnby) and Barak, his son. Mr. Barnby sung the air, " Awake the Ardour," most effectively. In the solo which follows by Barak, "All Danger disdaining," Miss M. Wells produced a most powerful effect by her dramatic energy and fire, and the magnificent lower tones of her voice were brought out with consummate skill. It is a singular feature of this oratario that Handel has written nothing for a tenor except a recitative by the Herald from Sisera, which afforded Mr. Montem Smith no op tunity for the display of his capabilities. The secontnart commences with one of the most fine, difficult, and double chorusses which even Handel has written, " See the proud Chief," which was given in a true and forcible manner, as was likewise that commencing "0, Baal ! Monarch of the Skies." The second part also contains another exquisite duet by Barak and Deborah. " Smiling Freedom," and a brilliant martial air, sung by Barak, " In the Battle." The third part, which describes the pursuit of the Cannaanites by the victorious Israelites, opens with a grand chorus, " Now the proud insulting Fire,' which is followed by that exquisite air of Abinoam addressed to his heroic son Barak, " Tears such as tender fathers shed," and here the melodious voice and pathetic style of Mr. Barnby appeared to great advantage. Perhaps it would not be too much to say that this is the sweetest bass song in existence. In conclusion, we feel bound to say, that the directors of the Collegiate Institution are entitled to the thanks and support of all in Liverpool who love fine music, and desire to hear it effectively performed, for they have not only provided an admirable local chorus, and principals trained under all the advantages which the metropolis af fords, but they have presented all these to the public on such cheap terms as to bring them within the reach of the humblest individual. Indeed, it may truly be said that Ms tnos S ' such a rich and desirable musical treat was never before I offered in Liverpool.

An s made to a few wealthy members of the conere. hen the needful was abundantly suppl the reotn _ . . . _ to arrangements made, not only for the class of sons for whom it was originally designed, but also for 1 admission of the tract distributors, Sun.lay School teachers, and a limited number of their friends. The party was held on Thursday in the Girls' School-room, which was tastefully decorated with evergreens, banners, &c. In addition to the parties before alluded to, there were also present the Rev. G. Dover, incumbent of St. Barnabas, Mrs. Dover, the Rev. G. Hulbert, curate, R. L. Jones, and J. Atcherley, Esqs., trustees of the school, Mrs. and Miss Atcherley, G. Barnsley, Esq., Mrs. Talbot, and other members of the congregation. After tea the meeting was addressed by the Rev. G. Dover, the Rev. G. Hulbert, and J. Atcherley and R. L. Jones, Esqrs., from which it was manifest that the speakers fully appre ciated the valuable services of scripture readers. distributors, and daily and Sunday School teachers as auxiliaries to the clergy. At this stage of the proceedings, the rev. incumbent (in the name of the Bible class) pre sented to Mr. Dandy, as a token of their affectionate regard, a hi ghly-finished rosewood desk, containing a gold pen, silver penholder and pencil case, and every other appendage. The testimonial was accompanied by an affecting address from the Rev. G. Dover, to which Mr. Dandy as feelingly and appropriately replied. After this addresses were delivered on various subjects by the Rev. T. Howarth, Mr. Barrow, Mr. Dandy, Mr, Webster, Mr. Bathgate, Mr. Ellison, and Mr. Murphy. TWO HUNDRED POUNDS REWARD AS BELOW.

The same amount of Premium which, at that age, is charged in other Mutual Offices for an assurance of £lOOO, if paid to the SCOTTISH PROVIDENT INSTITUTION, would secure a Policy of ..1230. The scale of Premiums payable FOR A LIMITED NUMBER OF YEARS is especially suitable for Professional Gentlemen commencing to assure at early and middle ages. At age 30, the Annual Premium, ceasing after 21 payments, for assurance of .4'loo at Death, is 14s. 6d.,—the Member being thus relieved of payment before he has passed the prime of life, and that for nearly the same Premium as other Offices require for the whole term of life. At present, when difficulty is felt by private indiyidnals in obtaining a safe investment which shall yield an adequate rate of interest, the Directors of the SCOTTISH PROVIDENT INSTITUTION invite attention to the ad vantageous character of Life Assurance by way of Single Payment, as combining Investment with Family Provision. For a sum of 0.500, paid by a person of 35, a Policy of £1277 may be obtained, payable to his family or executors at his death, however soon that may happen, with—in this Society—additions from the profits on the very favourable principle of its constitution. So long as he lives he has nearly as much command of the money paid as if he had deposited it in a bank. Ho CAR either surrender his policy, or be can at any time borrow, on the security of the policy alone, without any expense, and a a moderate rate of interest, a sum at first nearly equal to his payment, and increasing with the value of the policy. After 20 years, for example, he could so borrow about £7OO, continuing, be it observed, to rank in the division of profits accord ing to the full amount of the policy. At age 40, a Policy for £lOOO, sharing of course in the profit Assurances of from £5O to £5OOO may be effected according Copies of last year's Report, and every information, nu :8, may be seciired for a single payment of 4428 7s. k to this systeni. be obtained at the Office, or at any of the Agencies.
