THE EXPRESS, MONDAY WfENING, MAY 14;

millions and a half of private deposits which
bankers, merchants, and others had accumulated
in the Bank are coming out again. From
15,480,8641.—the amount hold on the 21st of
April—the private deposits have fallen, according
to the return just published, to 12,608,2691.,
being nearly the same as the amount on the 21d
at March.

We thus arrive at the sufficiently remarkable
result that during the months of March and April,
without any foreign drain of bullion or any other
foreign cause of disturbance, the mercantile classes
premed upon the Bank of England four or five mil-
lions of additional securities, and drove up the rate
of diaoorint against themselves, all the while re-
lodging in the Bank the bulk of the sums thus
obtained, whereas, during the present month, they
ere engaged in repaying these identical advances
to the Bank, and in utilising the money which
they had stored up in that establishment. We do
not hesitate to say that there is something very
faulty in • system which occasions needless move-
ments of this important and injurious character.
Our monetary arrangements are supposed to be
framed with • view to prevent, as far as possible,
unnecessary variations in the rates of accommoda-
tion ; but upon the present occasion, as upon
many former occasions, they have contributed
directly to cause sudden changes. The with-
drawal of • million and a half of notes by a
large discount-house was rather an effect than a
cause of the disturbance. Besides, as we saw by
the returns, the injudicious operation referred to
affected the position of the Bank for one week
only ; whereas, as we have already shown, the
recent movement in the money market has ex-
tended over • period of two months.
That these fluctuations in the money market
are materially promoted by the entire exclusion of
the money dealers from the Bank of England is
now generally admitted. As soon as any dis-
quieting symptom presents itself, every banker
and other dealer looks more narrowly than ever to
his own resources ; the channels of accommoda-
tion are greatly restricted ; and the full tide
of the demand is turned upon the Bank, who
immediately take advantage of it to raise their
terms. It is owned that there was no real cause
for the late agitation, and therefore no one can
feel confidence that it will not recur. This feeling
we believe to be at the root of the hesitation
which is now manifested in monetary circles, and
under the influence of which the commercial
public are still compelled to pay rates unwarranted
by the real condition of trade and of the bullion
movement. The manner in which the new Bank
rule operates is now becoming more clearly
understood. The idea that it would tend to
check speculation caused many persons at first to
regard it with • certain degree of favour, but the
experience since gained of its injurious and
cramping effects has altered their views. We met
lately with some very pertinent remarks upon the
subject in the circular of Messrs. T. H.
Li:Timms and Co., produce brokers, of Liver-
pool. These gentlemen on the 9th of March lasi
published the following warning, the correct/ma
of which has already been proved in the interval :
"The dangerous effect of the measure of March,
1868, must be apparent to evegyone at all
acquainted with the gigantic extent of our daily
monetary arrangements, and the small basis on
which the whole rests. At the time the resolution
was passed we pointed out its severe restrictive
action, and again in May, 1869, we showed that its
effect must be to produce the very thing which the
bank wished to prevent—a repetition of panic ; and
what then appeared a theoretical consequence has
sines proved to be a practical one. The measure
is wrong in principle ; restriction is one thing, total
minion quite another ; the effect of the one may
be salutary, of the other prejudicial and impolitic,
able to the Bank itself, to those excluded, and to
the trading community at large. The dismount-
homes form an important link between the em-
ployer of capital and the holder of idle money—
and also between the Bank itself and the legitimate
trader, whom the mance of business compels to
draw bills of a class which the Bank would not
look at ;—they are a recognised body that cannot
be ignored, and for the Bank to exercise exclusive
dealings with reference to them is invidious and at
variance with eound policy. To say that everyone
an get ti ate accommodation at the Bank is a
double fallacy ; not one in a hundred of the traders
of this country have an account with that establish-
ment, and it is quite impossible she could do all
the business of the discount-houses in addition to
her own. Every trader throughout the country
should interest himself in getting the resolution of
1868 rescinded or modified before its consequences
are more severely tested."
The accounts received from the manufacturing
districts during the last week are, upon the whole,
satisfactory. The principal activity is still in
the cotton trade. In the Manchester market a
steady business has been done. The demand has
eatended to the Indian, German, Medi...erre:ma,
and South American markets. The transactions
in yarns for India would have been larger but for
the higher rates demanded by spinners, who are
already full of orders. As regards cloths, prices
are very firm, the stocks being exceedingly light,
or entirely exhausted. The engagements of most
of the manufacturers continue extensive. Mean-
while the operatives continue to insist upon
their right to participate in their employers'
profits, and threats to " strike " are common. In
one of the reports we find the following suggestive
statement :—" A firm in the neighbourhood
" of Manchester received a document from the
" strippers and grinders (a class of unskilled
" labourers) in their mill, which said, 'We de-
"'mend an increase in our wages to 18s. per
" week.' The firm in question, being bound by
" contracts for some time forward, had no option
" but to give the advance. The same class of
" operatives in the same mill, only seven years
" ago, were paid I ls. per week." Nor is it only
upon the question of wages that the work-people
exhibit their independence, for complaint con-
tinues to be made of their " irregularity," which,
combined with other considerations, affects the
margin of profit in weaving certain fabrics.
In the woollen districts, prices are steady ; but
the disappointment occasioned by the " failure" of
the " spring trade," through the backwardness of
the season, is much complained of. There seem
to have been more inquiries for worsted yarn for
exportation ; but as regards woollen cloths, the
position of the manufacturers is described as un-
favourable, the prices of some classes of goods
being lower than the cost of production. As the
spring advances, however, an improvement is
hoped for. At Leicester and Nottingham trade is
rather quiet, but the genial change in the weather
has given great satisfaction. The accounts from
the Scotch and Irish linen districts report • fair
degree of activity.

Mi. DISRAELI AND EDI COPISSIIVATIVIL PARTY.—
A correspondent writes :—" It is currently reported
that the more extreme members of the Tory party
in the House of Commons have had a discussion
of some importance with Mr. Disraeli, so lately an
object of their attack in the Quarterly Review; and
that in the course of the discussion Mr. Disraeli
confessed that he had committed a grave political
mistake in his philandering with radicalism. Whether
confession will be followed by absolution remains
to be seen."

PULLINGER AND THE STOCK EXCHANGE.
truos a onsamentsie.)
The Committee et the Stock Exchange Lave
been eked in the most rigid and severe ex-
aminations iMo the transactions of members of that
establishment with Pullinger. They have required
from them, or from brokers, the most detailed ac-
counts of their dealings with that criminal, and
they have had before them the members of a firm,
now no longer in the house, which failed in con-
sequence of theirtransactions with Pullinger. Prom
the investigations, so far as they have gone, it now
turns out that Pullinger's Stock Exchange specula.
tions were for yews notorious ; that at timer he made
considerable profits, receiving on one settling day
as much as 7,0001. ; that he owed the firm which
failed at the time of its failure as much, it is said,
as 90,0001., which he did not meet, although shortly
before he placed 10,0001. to their credit; and that
he took up and received large amounts of stock,
and that the amount of looms which he paid to
members of the Stock Exchange reached somewhere
about 50,0001. He had, however, it is ascertained,
Large transactions with a person who was not a
member of the Stock Exchange, and those trans-
actions resulted, it is believed, in a loss to a simi-
lar amount. If this be correct, about 100,0001. of
the money abstracted from the Union Bank is ac-
counted for ; but what has become of the stock he
received is not yet ascertained ; and as the stock
principally consisted of foreign bonds, it becomes
very difficult to trace. The investigations of the
Stock Exchange Committee are, however,
by no means over, and there is a deter-
mination in that body to leave no stone
unturned in probing the whole affair to the bottom.
In their investigations it is only due to the incul-
pated members of the house to say that they have
afforded the committee the fullest information. A
' difficulty, however, arises in getting at the whole
truth from the fact that the outride speculator is now
dead, and that, although he left both property and
representatives, the Committee of the Stock Ex-
. change has no authority over them. It is clearly
established by the committee that Pullinger was
' largely engaged in gambling on the turf. It is to be
presumed that the committee will make public •
full report on the subject.

DRAM OP SIR Cli• BLit! BAILEY. —lt is with
sincere regret that we have to announce the death of this
eminent architect, which took place very suddenly a little
before midnight on Saturday night last at his residence
near Clapham-common. This bereavement falls in the

most unexpected mariner on the family, as up to within
two or three hours of his lamented decease Sir Charles
continued in the enjoyment of as sound health u often
fall to the lot of men who are approaching their
70th year. Oa Friday he wee at the New Palace, West-
minster, and tramacted business as usual, and on Saturday
so little did any change betoken his approaching dissolution
that he appeared even better than usual and passed the
greater part of the day ►t the Crystal Palace. Between
8 and 9 In the evening, however, he was seized with a fit
of what appeared to be paralysis, the worst symptoms of
which progressed with such fatal rapidity that in little
more than two hours Sir Charles bad ceased to exist. Sir
Charles was born in Westminster in 1796, and was a Royal
Academician and a Fellow of the chief architectural inati-
tailor s in England and Europe.

LATEST INTELLIGENCE.

GARIBALDI'S EXPEDITION.

THE FIGHTING COMMENCED.
The following telegrams have been received at
Mr. Reuter's office :

VIENNA, MOIIDAT.

It is stated in financial quarters, on reliable in-
formation, that part of Ganbaldi's expedition dis-
embarked at Marsala on the 11th instant from two
vessels.

The royal ships were obliged to cease firing dur-
ing two hours, being, as it is asserted, prevented
by English steamers. The firing could not be re-
sumed until the English officers had returned from
the shore to their vessels.

The volunteers who had lauded were fighting
with the royal troops at the moment of the mail's
departure.
NEAPOLITAN DESPATCH.
(orricisL)
NAPLES, NAT 13, 9.3 r.s.

The firing of the two Neapolitan frigates off
Marsala has killed several of the fillibusters. AB
regards the two vessels in which they had arrived,
the Lombard was sunk, and the Piedmont has been
captured. The royal troops marched on to meet
those who had disembarked.

[Marsala is a city and seaport of Sicily, at its
W. extremity, adjacent to Cape Boeo, in the intend.
of Trapani, 16m. B.S. W.Trapani ; lat. 37 deg. 48min.
10 sec. N. ; lon. 22 deg. 25 min. l 0 sec. E. Pop. in
1831, 23,388. It is of a square form, and is sur-
rounded by an old wall, flanked at the angles with
bastions, but destitute of a glacis. It might
be easily rendered a strong military poet.
The town, which is pretty well built, is bisected by
a broad and regular street, called the Camaro, on
one side of which is the cathedral, a large edifice,
ornamented with sixteen fine marble columns of
the Corinthian order. It has sixteen churches,
numerous convents, a retire), or place of retirement
under monastic regulation, three abbeys, a gym-
nasium, a seminary, and hospital with 70 beds, a
monte-di-piefa, barracks for cavalry, an old castle,
&c.]

THE STATE OF SICILY.

(nom OUR OWN COI

NAPLES, NAT 8.

The Official Journal last night, after a week's
silence, publishes the following bulletin :—" In
conformity with what we have repeatedly said as
to the perfect tranquillity re-established in Paler-
mo and the neighbourhood, we rejoice to add that
the state of siege in which the city had been placed
was taken off on the 3rd inst. by the commander
of that province, whereupon everything has re-
turned to its primitive normal state." And a pre-
cious state that was ! But as a comment on this
bulletin take the following intelligence, on which
you may rely :—The government for the last three
days has been in a state of unusual agitation.
There was a council of generals at the palace
on Sunday, and at night Prince Luigi went to
Capua to bring up a battery of mountain artillery,
the only battery of the kind in the service—this,
unless lam mistaken, was sent off last night. At
the same time it is said in the arsenal that an order
has been given for sending off 5,000 more troops to
Sicily. I have it from military men and civilians,
and the following preparations seem to confirm the
report. Two of the steamers belonging to a private
company, which had been returned by the govern-
ment a week since, were again taken up on Sunday;
, they are the Vesuvio and Sorrento, and I fear
that my oorrespondenoe will be dragged all round
the coast as a consequenoe, as the Vesuvio did
the direct service to Marseilles. Two govern-
meat frigates left yesterday morning, and four
were at Gaeta, having been recalled from Sicily,
probably for the transport of troops, which I hear
have been assembled in that place. A thunder-
bolt seems to have fallen amongst the royal party,
and without pretending to be a prophet, I think
you will find before this arrives that an
expedition of volunteers has left the north of Italy
for Sicily, and perhaps has landed. If such be the
case, and Garibaldi, as I surmise, be at the head
of it, we shall kar of a general revolt, and Sicily
is tat ; for I can give you no idea of the terror
which the very name of Garibaldi strikes into all
classes here, and the troops especially.
Already the public voice is on the traces of the
expedition, and every one announces that it has
sailed—of course exaggerating the details vastly.
Unless the Piedmontese government has pre-
vented it, I believe that by this time it
is at least en route, and I scarcely think
that the government would dare to interfere, though
it has refused to give up 12,000 muskets which had
been collected by the great chief for this special
purpose.

A person who is often in Palermo tells mo that
on Friday at 4 o'clock the shops were opened, and
the cannon removed from the streets, but on Satur-
day at 4 o'clock they had been replaced, as a row
or two had taken place the night before outside
the gates. The cavalry he heard had suffered
much, and indeed beyond Palermo the state of
things was awful. An order to open the shops was
posted on the vralls,and everything was compulsory.
When the insurrection broke out in Trepani the
prisoners were liberated from Favignana, and
joined the patriots. The Baguio of Favignana ie
as notorious as was the Bastille of Paris. Of the
interior little that was precise was known ; but the
insurrection was far from having been put down.
Despatches just arrived from Messina announce
that all was tranquil, and that the state of
siege was taken off on the 3rd instant. A
most sanguinary proclamation, which owes
its origin to Filangieri, had been pub-
lished in both places. Arms were to be given up
directly, and lists of the names of persons in arms,
or supposed to be so, were to be affixed to all
public places for fifteen days. If the persons
whose names were therein entered did not appear
and have their names struck out, they would be
liable to be tried by court-martial and shot. If a
chief were brought in by anyone, his captor would
have 100 ducats reward ; if a common man, the
captor would have 50 ducats !

POLICY OF THE FRENCH GOVERNMENT.
The Constibitionnei of to-day publishes an

article, signed by M. Graudguillot, which
says :—" The reply of Count Cavour to M.
Thouvenel proves that Piedmont, as well as
France, energetically blames the audacious at-
tempt of Garibaldi. If the expedition of
Garibaldi is contrary to the interests of Pied-
mont, it nevertheless responded to the sentiment
of a part of the people of whom Garibaldi is the

hero. Piedmont could not constrain the luau
who represents so large a popular foroe. Such
an act would raise a dangerous reaction in
Italy. If the enterprise of Garibaldi is censured.
in Europe, the state of things in the Two Sicilies
is so critical that the success of the enterprise
would astoniah no one. Without foreseeing the
issue of the expedition, we cannot admit the sup.
position that it may lead to a European conflagra-
tion." The Constitutionnel, speaking of the reports
that England wishes to possess Sicily, says, " It
would be no more easy for England to take
Sicily than for Russia to occupy Constantinople."
M. Grandguillot recalls that France and England
have always acted in concord as regards Neapolitan
policy. No one ought, therefore, to suppose that
to-day they oppose one another. M. Gnsudguillot
concludes as follows :—" We shall hope that the
Neapolitan question will not be unravelled by revo-
lution, but in case it should, it is only by union,
and not by antagonism and rivalry, that the Great
Powers, particularly France and England, could
meet its dangers."

RUSSIA AND TURKEY.
ST. PETERSBURG, MOND.ILT.

The principal members of the diplomatic corps,
excepting the minister for Turkey, were a few days
ag► convoked by Prince Gortschakoff, who de-
clared to them that the position of the Christians
in Turkey has become so intolerable that Russia is
on the point of addressing strong representations
to the Porte in favour of them, and hopes to
obtain the support of the other powers.
It is asserted that the journey of M. de Hed-
berg to Paris, where he will replace Count Khans-
leff as Ambassador of Russia, has brought about
an understanding between France and Russia in
reference to Asia Minor, where the agitation is
continually increasing.
The Paris Moniteur de la Rate of yesterday says:

"It is announced that the Mediterranean
squadron has received orders to re-enter Toulon, in
order to set out again on a more distant inissiom
respecting which no particulars are known. We
may, however, be permitted to suppose that if not
destined for the coast of Sicily the squadron would
cruise in the Levant, where agitations both politi-
cal and religious have recently arisen, which at no
distant period may necessitate the interference of
the Western Powers."

TOULOUSE, MAY 12.
The Spanish Princes slept here last night, and
continue their journey to Paris to-day.

MARSEILLES, SUNDAY.

The Grand Duke Nicholas of Russia has arrived
here in a Ruasian frigate, and will, it is asserted,
leave this evening for Paris.

THE PAPAL STATES.
TURIN, SUNDAY Da:MO.
The journals publish a proclamation of Garibaldi
to the Italians.

In this proclamation Garibaldi calls upon the
inhabitants of the Marches, Umbria, and Sabina,
and the Neapolitans to revolt, in order to divide
the forces of the enemy.
Another proclamation, addressed to the Romans,
recalls the insurrection of 1849, and urges the
Romans to act like their brethren who fell in de•
fending Rome.

The French Government has forwarded to the
Sardinian Government a quantity of muskets and
ammunition and about 400 cannons, the greatest
part of which are for marine service.
No news has been received of the expeditions.
ROME, MAY 8 (Vi► Husain's).
General Lamoriciere continues to concentrate
the Papal troops at Gubbio.
It is asserted that General AUegrino, the com-
manding officer at Ancona, has been reduced to the
non-effective.

The King of Naples has subscribed one million
scudi to the Roman loan.
