The increase in 1860 over 1859 is 1,799,740/.

This is a statement of the commodities which
we took from the United States in excess of the
quantity which we took in the previous year. To
the extent of this sum of 7,717,878/. the claim of
America npon us has been larger than it
was last year, always provided that we
have not put the balance wholly or partially
right again by inducing her to enlarge her pur-
chases of our goods. To test this latter point, we
will look into the exports from the United King-
dom to the United States. These were (to At-
lantic ports) :

Twelve months of .......... £13,994,815

I+loo 21,018,500
Decrease in 1860, as compared with 1859,
1,097,872/.
The result of our inquiry into these materials is
that we have imported from America 7,717,8781.
more than in the previous year, and have exported
1,097,8721. leap than in the previous year, making
a total difference of 8,815,7501. against us and in
favour of America, on a comparison of 1860 with
1859. This is the reason why gold is still going
to America ; why the best practical authorities in
the American trade feel in doubt as to how long
the flow will continue ; and why the commercial
community must continue extremely cautious.
We will only qualify the inferences drawn above
by observing that, as regards the increase of
1,799,7401. in the value of the cotton imported
from America, there is no doubt that we either
have been or shall be compensated with a large
profit by working the raw material up for the nu-
merous markets which we supply ; but as regards
the large sum of 5,918,1381., which represents
the increase in the imports of wheat and flour, it is
perfectly clear that we have consumed the supplies
furnished, and have nothing to show for the
money.

We will draw further upon the Board of Trade
returns, in order to gain an insight into the bul-
lion and specie movement. First, let us glance
back • year or two. For the whole year 1858
the specie and bullion record stood thus :

We imported
We exported

So that we retained
The value of money was, therefore, very low in
1838. In 1859
We imported
We esperted .......... .....-- 35,688,800
Keeping
The balance being still on the right side, the
money market continued tolerably easy during the
greater part of the year 1859. But in 1860 the
figure. were as follows :

We impaled C22,978,196
We exported
So that our stock■ of specie and bullion were
trenched upon to the extent of 2,556,5721. Ac-
cordingly, at the close of the year the value of
money rose. On the last day of tho year the
Bank of England rate of discount was advanced to
6 per cent.
It may be useful to glance at the progress of the
raoeipta from the three largest sources of supply.
1. The three years' imports of specie and bullion
from Mexico, South America, and the West Indies
were:

Ia INS £6,635,079
la 1859
Ia 1860
Considering the anarchy which has prevailed in
Mexico, the great silver-producing country, the
supply is much more regular than could have been
expected.
2. From the United Staten the receipts were :
Ia 1858 £4,811,772
Ia nee
la 1880

In the ordinary coons of trade golds nearly
always lowing from the United States to Europe ;
and the movement is so large that its reversal at
the preseitt moment affects deeply our whole mone-
tary system.

The decrease in 1880 was 1,907,997/. com-
pared with 109, and 2,348,4321. compared with
1868. The falling off is deserving of at-
tention, particularly at a time when we
have so pressing a need of gold ; but
it would be erroneous to imagine that it denotes al
proportionate falling off in the Australian goldl
production. The cause is threefold. 1. There
has really been a decrease in the yield, but not to
an extent to excite uneasiness. 2. With the
growing wealth of the Australian colonies, a larger
amount of the precious metal is retained there,
partly for actual circulation. 3. An increased
amount of gold is now shipped direct from the
Australian ports to India, China, and the Archi-
pelago, with which Australia carries on a very
large trade. To the extent to which those coun-
tries absorb Australian gold the drain of silver
from Europe is probably mitigated.
Much ham been said of late about the anomaly
which is presented in the dearness of money here
as contrasted with its cheapness on the Continent,
particularly in Holland, Belgium, and Germany.
But the anomaly is susceptible of explanation.
Money is moderately dear in Franca because the
harvest there was bad ; it is very dear in England
because the harvest here appears to have yielded
rel►tively even less than in Francs ; on the other
hand, capital is abundant and low in price in
other countries of the Continent because they hap-
pily escaped the trial under which we are now
labouring. The rise in the value of money with
us baa been promoted by our susceptibility to par-
ticipate in the disturbance in America, with
which we have such close commercial relations ;
and on the other hand, the value of money in
Germany is kept down by the stagnation of enter-
prise. The influences in operation are very dis-
similar, and the effect is likewise dissimilar. The
low rate of interest on the Continent is chiefly of
importance to us from its contributing to an influx
of capital for employment in our market. Such
capital may be regarded as merely lent to us, yet
for the time the loan helps to relieve our difficulty.

in a lengthy epistle, the purport of which is, that though
he does not regard Dr. Temple's essay with the name feel-
ing of aversion as he feels for other portions of the book,
he yet deems it open to " very grave remark" Hie grace
thinks the joint letter of the bishop@ much too feeble

holds every one of the seven persons acting together in
the book to be "alike responsible for the several acts
of every individual among them in executing their avowed

For some time pest there has been much public excite-
ment at Warsaw, and a ;rest popular manifestation on the
25th of Feb., the anniversary of the battle of Orochow,
was publicly spoken of. The Agricultural Society,
which numbers more than 3,000 members and forms •
truthful representation of the country, met and oommenced
its sittings on the 21st. It began its deliberations by unani.
moualy declaring that the enfranchisement of the pea-
bents and of their lands ought to be completed, and that
the ransom should be effected by means of the issue of
letters of pledge, and • bank of credit to be opened for that
purpose. Further, more than 200 members proposed a
petition to the Emperor demanding of him the re-establish.
meet of the constitution of 1815.

The most eminent men of the country, while approving of
these demonstrations, attempted to persuade young men
and the more enthusiastic patriots to abstain from the
manifestations of the 25th, but without success. On the
morning of the 24th placards were to be seen posted up at
the corners of the streets, calling on the entire population
to go the next day at six o'clock in the evening, to the
site of the old city, in order to pray in a church
situated in the vicinity for the victims of the
battle. At 4 o'clock the crowd came from all quarters
of the city towards the abovementioned spot. A procession
left one of the churches with • crow, some relies, •od a
flag with the national colours. The white eagle and the
cavalier, the device of Lithuania, produced a magic effect
upon the crowd ; acclamations burst forth on every side,
until they were silenced by a voice bidding them to pray.
On this appeal more than 30,000 persons—men, women,
and children, and the aged—knelt down, and in
the midst of tears and sobs sang their religious
chants. Scarcely was this over when the armed
form appeared. The gendarmes and cavalry malted upon
the crowd; eight men were killed and several others
wounded. The people were unarmed and defended them-
selves only with their burning torches. A great many
arrests were made. The principal places in the streets
were occupied by the soldiers, and guns were pointed before
the royal chateau. Meanwhile the crowd, recovering
from its fright, reappeared upon the mane of
the collision, and collecting the corpses, took
them to the house of the French consul. They called upon
the maul to appear, but he refused, and this second mani-
festation wan suppressed by the troops. The latter with-
drew into the city and barracks, and the military authori-
ties; made the city responsible for the maintenance of order.
It appears that the government has not many troops in
Poland, and it sent in all haste for throe corps, which are
already on the march.

A letter from Warsaw, addressed to the Journal
de Dresde, gives the following details :

Since the demonstration which took place on ti's
25th November, 1660, on the occasion of the anniversary
of the Polish revolution, and which was allowed by
the authorities, the rumour spread throughout the
country that on the 25th of February, the anniversary
of the battle of Orochow, a grand demonstration would
be made at Wsrmw, which, in fact, was made on
that day. It was first proposed to hold a funeral service
on the field of battle itself, which is at no great
distance from the Prep faubourg; but it having been
reported that the Russians would celebrate a service at the
same hour in honour of their soldiers who fell on that
occasion, it was resolved to organise instead • grand torch-
light procession to parade the principal streets of the city.
For some days previously handbills had been largely dis-
tributed, and even posted up on the walls, calling upon all
citizens to assemble on the old marketplace at half-past
6 o'clock. At 5 o'clock already, not only the market-place,
but all the adjacent streets, were thronged by a large multi-
tude, including many persons of the better classes, and also
women. The police, which was in force, called upon the
crowd to disperse, but in vain. Insults were lavished
upon it. Circulation, which was difficult at first,
soon became impossible, especially in the badly-
lighted streets, still darker owing to • fog.
While the police were thus occupied in the old market-
place the leaders of the demonstration assembled in the
neighbouring church of the Paulinians for the funeral ear-
-1 vice. The church was not large enough to contain the
assemblage, and the whole street was blocked up by the
crowd. About half-peat 7 the procession issued forth from
the church, and advanced through the street on to
the market-place. The coreige was headed by a
MAO bearing the Polish flag- s white eagle on •
red ground. He was followed by • body of young men,
chiefly students of the Academy of Medicine, of the
School of Agriculture, of the Academy of Fine
Arta, and of the Institution of Nobility, as well as of
young men of the industrial classes, most of them carrying
small Bags of the Polish colours, red and white, and torches.
The procession traversed the dense and crowded market-
place, singing • hymn, and when the people beheld the White
Eagle an immense and terrible shout of enthusiasm arose,
which seemed never to end. It was the intention of the
cortige to pass through the rue St. Jean, in front of the
Royal Palace, to reach the Cracow faubourg, the finest and
most animated part of the city, and thence before the
Government Palace, where the Agricultural Society
was actually holding a sitting. In fact, nearly all the
nobility of the country is actually here to attend the meet-
ings of the Agricultural Society, which, though only
two years in existence, already numbers 4,600 members.
As the corterte approached the Place St. Jean • squadron
of mounted gendarmes suddenly made their appearance,
and commenced making use of their sabres. A great
tumult ensued ; those of the cortege who were attacked de-
fended themselves for some time with their flagstaffs and
torches. In about one hour afterwards the whole of the old
market place, was clear, the whole garrison was under arms
and occupied all the public squares and principal streets,
which, however, remained crowded by men during the night.
A letter, dated Warsaw, 28th Feb., says :

The police attempted to stop the manifestation, and eereral
persons were killed. On the next day the corpses were car-
ried in procession through the streets, and displayed in
front of the French Consulate to shouts of " Jule.
tioe ! Justice ! Vivo Napoleon !" This led to a conflict
with the troops, who on the 2Sth were consigned to their
barracks, and the maintenance of order entrusted to the
inhabitants. lam told that order is maintained by the
Agricultural Society, the municipal authorities having spon-
taneously placed themselves under its orders.

The Dibats of to-day observes, "The insurrec-
tion of Warsaw has not burst like a thunder-clap
in a serene sky. Fur more than a year agita-
tion has been increasing in Russian Poland.
The name of nationality has not been heard
so often during the year—the Polish pro-
vinces of Russia have not heard of the rights
of the Rouinans, the Create, the Serbs., the
Sclavonians, the Bulgarians—without being asto•
niched that they were themselves so completely
forgotten, and without attempting to remind the
world that amongst all nations about which so
much noise was being made the only one that was'
~
not spoken of was at once the moat unfortunate
and the least deserving of being overlooked. This
is the true cause of the excitement which prevails
in Poland, and which has revealed itself to Europe
in the troubles of Warsaw. All was not
over on the Ist instant, since we are informed
by a despatch that 100,000 persons were present
that day at the funerals of the victims of the
emeute. But the Poles appear determined to
maintain a legal position. They have a constitution,
which was granted to them by the treaties of 1815,
guaranteed by Europe, and which has been abro-
gated or suspended since 1831. They are signing a pe-
tition to demand itare-establishment. It was against
the faith of treaties that Poland was destroyed, and
she has only to refer to them to recover a portion of
her ancient independence. If she claims with
energy and wisdom that which was insured to her in
1815, who can object to it P'
