onetime la the gensuat d beak wags la the ckcabilioa,
but dot the two we obviously altogether kdepeadeat et
each other, yr, is ether wade, that they are governed by ea-
tinily &Sweat coridersticas. Dirks the het two yews the

iste.of dreamt ben leatanted ken Silo 7 per our: On the
16th at Joe, 11106, when the brk rats was retard to 31
re rat., the bra arsd cirailatica amonated to
20,570,0001. On the 30th of Wore in the rate year, when
reran id to ma Warn of the rats to the blither point of 7
per our, the moat of arse rein:alarm was 21,361,0301.
At the karst data the amour of advisor to the purr era
private acanthi was 12,399,0301. ; at the latter date it was
18,780,0001. 11 was, therefore, imparble to attribute the
scarcity of mussy to what is rocrilly called a emerged=
of the circulation of notes, and mach ler to any con-
traction of the turenniodation given b 7 the beak.

But ff ere look to the elate of the billion et the

two different periods, the whole Is expleined. In
June it stood at 18,000,00 W.; is October at
11,230,0001. The demand had ben !or foredo
payments, which under no drourasteness could be
rest by wins, and which could only be met by bullies.
In like moaner O 1836, the lowest Bank rate was
q per cant., to which it yew redwood on the 28th of June,

Whin Um amount of Bank sotto in circulation on

20,312,0001. On the 11th of October the sate of dismount
was raised to 7 per nat., whoa the circulation wee
21,501,0001. At the forma date, however, the bullion wee
13,073,000 L, end etre latter date it WWI= to 10,140,000/.
It wee sot thinks may deficiency of beak sotto, but •
demand far capital, acting upon the bullion, for foreign pay-
rolls* that led to the prewar mad to the high rate of dis-
count coregainod of. Apia, it tart be evident that ao
increased feellity for lapsing notes that could be giro t the
Beak, always marring that the dasoninatioa of the notes
continua to be Wrist rat moat, would have teamed the
pressure, or, In point of fact, have led tea larger circulation.
We hare skied, shown that dr* the 'roma tetras the

POLITICAL GOSSIP.

•
Thu Leader thinks that if nothing for reform is
16 be done this serslon in parliament, something ought to be
attempted oat of doors. We ere not satisfied with bearing
that the quation once popular is now only parliamentary.
The movement in favour of an amended, purified, and ex-
tended representation, should be national; otherwise ita re-
cults will be defective and disappointing."
.

. r
Some time hack a suggestion appeared in the Tablet
for asortolcompromite oftheldaynoothquertion,namely, that,
in lieu of annual payments to the parties entitled, a capital
sum should be at once handed over, equal to the value of
thew) annual payments; and that than the present en-
dowment of Maysamth should cede. This proposal
has, dace then, been the topic of conversation in
many quarters. It has been &mussed by Roman
catholic M.P.'s on one aide, and protestant M.P.'s on the
other. "end there is certainly," days the Record of last
evening, "a great willingness to adopt some such plan as a
mesas of putting an end to diecusaions of which the Hesse
of Commons is growing weary."
Lord Palmerston has raised just expectations" on
theaubjectofffie coming Reformßill. "Withoutthatp4dge,"
says the Spectator," tho subject might, perhaps, by a little
manoeuvring, have been staved eff for yaws; but any
attempt at evasion now would do something worse for
the minister than support the vague sad latent desire
for reform; it would disappoint just expectation"—
would provoke anger attended by something like contempt ;
and the triumphant career of a popular minister might end to
• bathos that would cut him to the heart. It is, therefore,
of the first importance to the work which Lord rebated°s
has undertaken, and to his own repute in history, that he
should ascertain what really an the expectations of the
Tartrate classes of the English people. Quiet as the public is,
these expectations, whatever they may be, ere • matter of
het; and if sufficient pains be taken, they can be as-
artsbeed."
" Who is to be the new Solicitor-General ? " is a

question still asked in legal circle.. The names of Mr.
Atherton, Sergeant Kinglake, Mr. Collins, and Mr. Keat-
ing, have been freely mentioned. "Some of them gentle-
men," says the Note, " have large practice, but we aches
that we do not sr the !modal resources for juridical reforms
in the law in any of these gentlemen. Mr. Atherton has •
most catensivo practice ; Mr. Collins is sometimes shrewd
and ready in debate: but, without any disparagement of
their powers, we do not think that an eflotive law redeemer
will be found in any one of them. Scientific lawyers ass wanted
to aid the Crown in drafts for new measure, of legal retain.
The liberal bar has latterly been degenerating, and some of
the eminent practitioners professing ministerial politics have
not seats in parliament. Mr. Quinn:, of the Northern Cir-
cuit, is spoken of in whig circles se one of the chief rising
1131111 of their connexion. He has some academical attain-
ments, the results of a German education blended with the
Chitty whoa of English practice. Hs ham • neat style of
forensic argumentation, but whether he would prove • debater
in parliament could only be tested by experience. On the
whole, the liberal lawyers are wetly Warier to the host of
legal abilitie• connected with conservatinn."
_

-Admiral Sir Charles Napier has given notice of
his intention to move, malt Thursday week, for a select com-
mittee to enquire into the meditation of the Board of
Admiralty.
It is said that Sir Robert Peel's successor at the
Admiralty will be Mr. Thomas George Baring, M.P., for
Falmouth, who has been private secretary to Sir Charles
Wood.

In the event of the success of the petition against
the return of Sir Alexander Ramsay for Rochdale, it is not
improbable that Mr. Bright will be brought forwent.
This morning the petitions against the
Marlborough, Gnat Yarmouth, and Wareham elec-
tions were issued. Mr. Lewis, who was a candi-
date et Marlborough, urges a want of qualification on
the part of Mr. H.B. Baring; two electors of Yarmouth, a
brewer and a timber merchant, allege bribery and corruption
as the part of Meun. M'Cullagh and Watkin ; and three of
the Wareham electors bring similar charges spinet Mr.
Calcraft.

The Unita Service Gazette argues that the militia
ought to be planed entirely in the hand/ of the Commander-
in-Chid. That functionary would of eouree—thinka our
_ _

toutraporary—recoguise the importance of local influence
and fairly distribute counarsions for the rke of rendering
the seryke popular among the squirearchy ; but "be
would also take good care that the whole force should

In rendered sub;rdinsto to one eystent of discipline, and

that the regimental commands should not be trideiwit/t. Sir
Marmaduks Broadaxes Is probably very much beloved In his
county—has long enjoyed a reputation as a bold ton-hunter
and a liberal landlord. Can Sir Sannaduke put a regiment
through its maneuvres ? Does he andante:id anything
shoat Its iaterior economy ? Can he judge of the capacity
of the dams of companies? Or does he ' have ell that
eon of thing' to my major?' These are questions
which a commander-in-chic/ would naturally put, and by
the replies he might receive the selection would necessarily
be regulated. Than, and not till then, shall we have a de-
pendable militia."

The Ecovsonaist undertakes to answer two in-

Westin questions. " Why," we mad, " have none of the
conspicuously able men who ham gradually won a great
Faiths as the representatives of the middle classes of
England In the House of Commons, seldom or never
beta able to take their place as ministers with men
who have little more knowledge and lees than half
their asperity? Why have men so eminent me Mr.
Cobden and Mr. Bright been obliged to forego the satisfac-
tion of carrying out the redeems they bad rendered neces-
sary, and to deliver them over at the last moment into the
hands of Sir Robert Peel? Not surely from any Raglith
warship of birth, for the statesman was bat one step removed

The Saturday .Renew, dimming the politics of
Ss heaped's, observes that so fie ea Victoria is oonowned,
the overthrow of the late and of several preceding !adminis-
tration; nee to be attributable to the ambitious and booms-
