PARIS. N. 4.

5 Do.

LIVERPOOL, Nov. 6.—Thefollowing extract from the cir-
cular of Messrs. Littledale and Co. explains the real nature
of the transaction of that firm with the Bank of England:
" As misstatements continue to be published, and much mis-
apprehension exists as to our late application to the Bank of
England, we think it well to state the facts for the satisfac-
tion of our friends abroad, which were simply then: The
stoppage of the Royal Bank, on the 18th Oct, proved the
climax of mistrust and alarm. At such a juncture it was
needleu to apply to any other local bank to take up the ac-
count ; we therefore went to the Bank of England and asked
them to open an account with us, on similar terms to those
I we had with the Royal Bank, and to afford us facilities for '
discount to the extent of 100,0001., both which were acceded
to in the most handsome manner. No loan of Consols or ad-
ranee of money was required, or securities asked for, nor
have we as yet availed ourselves of the amount granted for
the discount of a single bill."
M.ANCHESTER, Nov. 6.—There have been some farther
failures spoken of today, two of them rather to a serious
I amount. The parties are, Mr. David Ainsworth, George-
street, Manchester, warehouseman; Messrs. Maryland and
Veltman, bleachers and manufacturers, Stockport; Messrs.
Just and Co.; and Mr. Cowell, calico printer, near Bury.
The two latter are not to any serious amount. The second
parties above.named, one of whom was lately a member of
the leMslature, are said to have engagements to the amount
of 40,0001., and it is rumoured that their stoppage has arisen
from temporary pressure, with ultimate assets which will
much more than cover liabilities. This last stoppage though
currently reported all day, has caused so much surprise, that
up to the time I write many parties throw doubt upon it.
Mr. Ainaworth's engagements are said to be about 30,0001.,
of which about 15,0001. are trade, and 15,0001. private debts,
and the gross assets will, it is expected, produce about a
balance : so that, giving a margin for miscalculations and
expenses, there may be a dividend probably of 15s. in the
pound.
George-street, Manchester, Nov. s..—Sir,—lt is with extreme regret
that I am obliged to announceto you my inability to meet my engage-
ments. Very large lessen by bad debts, within the last two months,
and the general depression in trade, have placed me in this unexpected
position; but I have the satalacton to assure you that I have not
sacrificed any portion of my assets, and that my statement,
.when
oTigrereat my is spit, of
r lessee,
assiste ebbuyw me to be

notbs
Prawn* an accurate statementi of my affairs, wkidt I upurthut,
to

11 o'clock um. precisely.—D. Atsswoarn.
Attempts are making to enable Mr. R. Gardner to resume.
LEEDS, Nov. s.—Our Leeds correspondent advises us of
the name of an extensive tanner and leather merchant at
that place, who has suspended payment and called his credi-
tors together, in consequence of the refusal of his bankers to
extend their previously limited advances. His obligations
are stated at nearly 40,0001., but the statement submitted to
his creditor' was a very favourable one, and it was arranged
that he should go on, paying a dividend of Be. in the pound
during the month of December, and the rest in May, 1818.
EFFECT TN HAMttCRO OF THE LATE ALTEHATIONb IN
THE BANK Cusnren At-e—The following paragraph ap-
pears in the Cologne Gazette of the 4th mst Our ex-
change, on the whole, has recovered from its Plana, but
there still exists • great disinclination to do business on a
large scale. Very divergent opinions prevail amongst our
commercial men respecting the suspension of the Bank Act
by the English government, for as such the recent measure
may be looked upon. Should there be no more suspensions
of payments all will go on well, and confidence will be
restored. In fact, in that case, such a result would arise
even if government did not interfere in any way. Should
there be more failures, however, the measure in question
will neither raise credit nee restore confidence.
