The preminai on gold yesterday at Paris was 8 per
mills, which, at the English Mint p4oe of
W. 17e. 10Id. par canes for standard gold, given an
exchange of 25.298, and the exelmage at Paris of
Leadea at abort bMng 26.30, it follows that gold is
0.02 per cent dearer in London than In Paris.
By lest advise the peke of gold at Hamburg was
4384 per mark, which, at the English mint price of
31. 178.101 d. pee ounce for standard gold, gives an
exchange of 13 91; and the exchange at Hamburg on
London, at short, being 13.71, it follows that gold
ie 0.612 per seat. dearer in Hamburg than in
Leedom
By last accounts the course of melange at New
York on London for bills at 60 days' sight was
1101 per cent.; and the par of exehange between
England and America being 109 23-40 per east., it
follows that the exchange is nominally 0.67 per cent.
in favour of England. And, after making allowance
for difference of interest and charges of transport, the
present rate leaves a small profit upon the importa-
tion of gold from the United States.
The account of the position of the Burk of England
fee the week ending Saturday, the 21st Sept., 1850,
published pursuant to the Act 7 and 8 Viet., c. 32, is

The following statement, prepared and condensed
from various official rehires, will be found to present
an intelligible view of the note circulation of the
United Kingdom, and of the coin aad bullion held by
the banks indicated, both positively at the dates of the
somata last made up, and comparatively with returns
for owring periods..
The waldoised table gives the aggregate weekly
average of the sate circulation of the United
dam, as it stood foe the fear weeks eliding the 17th,
24th, sad Slat of August last, and the 7th Wet., being
the latest date to which the return have beau eolleo-

The Committee of Lloyd', hays placed in their
rooms a memorial, which is already signed by a
somber of leading firms. praying for the establish-
ment eta Tribunal of Commerce, for the adjudication
of all °ammonia' causes by ocionsersial nose, with
lawyers for suessors. This plan is supported by
many leading members of the St** Exchange, -
Degas, and Um Corn Exchange, and by the a.
mesimats at Liverpool. Although the proposal may.
at OM sight appear new and naszampled it is not so,
aythsjortleie abundant exposing on the subject. The so
of the Stook Exchange decide all goes- si
tins eeWeg among their members, sad at Dobkin is
MIONS- usociataos, named the Ouzel Galley, for u
übitratioa of all &spates arising between mer
iamb. Fonnerly the livery companies of the city M.
and ethic. sorpoeste towns adjudicated in is
between the members of their trades, tos
which they still have the power to do, though ousted ft
of their functions by the concurrent jurisdiction of the
law tribune/a. Abroad, this institution is in vigour Is
coder the ma* of Conseils de Prod'hommes. The
Trinity Masters still sit as amesson In the Court of 14
Common Pleas on eases affecting the merchant n
Dry, and there is no gags why the a,
principle should not be extended. instead of
complicated—trade sasses Wag taloned by the j edges
to the arbitration of a barrister, when the decision Si
turns out often most unsatisfactoilly. Bo long as the 5:
Levant and Rusis Company were in full power the so
system prevailed generally in our factories abroad of u
the consul atd merchants exercising the civil juria-
diction. Wherever the Code Napoleon prevails in as
France, Flinders, Rhenish Prussia, and elsewhere in sr
Western Europe, tribunals of commerce are este- te
Welted, and with the best effeet ; and it seems to be r
the opinion of our mercantile men that the time is ere
now arrived when a merchant of London or Liverpool u
shall have the same privileges as the merchant of at
Parie,Marseilles,orAntwerpiubnogiingtradequestions to,
before a practical tribunal. It is not expected there "
will be much hostility on the part of solicitors, as it „:
in nowise ahem their position ; they have become in st
the City the men of business and adviser, of the mer-
chant, as at the Wert-end of the peer and landowner, so
and the:r professional earnings are derived not from 2/
the encouragement of litigation, but from the per- 1.1
humanee of legitimate and valuable services. st.
The Antwerp journals state that in consequence of 12:
the reply of the Agricultural Commission, which had it
bean consulted as to the best miens of checking the I:
future ravages of the potato disease, and which de- so
oided in favour of procuring an entirely new stock of
the plant, the Belgian Minister of Commerce and ;
Agriculture has just taken measures for obtaining Si
fresh sods of the plant from Peru and the regions ad- 13
;gent to the Andes, where the potato grows in • se.
wild state. Of these seeds it is intended to raise a %-
stoat which will eventually replace the old plant*.
From Heise Darmstadt we learn that, on the 21st, 00
the finance committee punted their report to the gi
second chamber relative to the government project se
for extending the duration of the present financial let
law during the fourth quarter of 1830. The commit- so
tee report decidedly in opposition to the prolongation
recommended by the government, as a violation of 60
articles 67 and 68 of the constitution. The debate 40
was adjourned till the 23rd.

Very little business continues to present lima in AO
the English stock market, and the operations on ape. I:
°elation are very limited ; bet the tone to-dayie rather at.
firmer, and prices have improved a shade mace yes-
terday. Consols have been steady all the morning, at es
961 to 1 both for money and the 16th October.
Exchequer Bills, 1,0001., have been dealt in at 66e. re
prem. ; ditto, 6001., at 635. India Bonds are rather u
more in demand; the 1,0001. Bonds mark 83a. and 10,
87s. premium. ss
In the foreign stock market the arrangements foe
eke settlement of the account chiefly occupy the 1,4.
attention of the dealers, and the actual business is se
consequently on a very small scale. Mexican
Bonds are a shade firmer. The transactions up to si
the present hour are limited to:—Belgian Four-asd-
