Reda some noise. The police officer thought that they win
the party who were to visit tho woman's house, end sitar a
while he went up to the room to tell them to disperse. An
altercation ensued, and the student•, exasperated, ejected
the man from the room. He ran off for • bend of
police agent• and Cossacks, and they proceeded with some
roughness to arrest the students. The latter resisted, and •
regular battle ensued, in the course of which several of the
students were seriously and some even dangerously injured.
At length the police and Cossacks remained victor.. The
next day the whole body of the etudenta of the University-
-1,800 in number—aerembled, and unanimously resolved to

Insist on having the polio, punished, and to obtain an order
that in future the police should not be allowed to enter the
rooms of students without permission of the authorities of
the University. The professors and other authorities hare
taken the part of the young men, and, with the permission of
the governor-grovel, the matter is to be brought beforo the
Emperor.

stood to be without foundation, but it is curious to
remark how completely the past policy of that
government has predisposed the public mind to dis-
trust the orthodoxy of their financial views. We
believe that the real cause of the sudden upward
movement in the price of Consols this afternoon
rested with the failure if a large operator for the
fall, the closing of whose account can only be effected
by buying back the stock which he bas sold on
speculation. At • still later hour this sudden im-
provement was lost.
Whilst Consols have risen, several other depart-
ments of the Stock Exchange were weaker. Cana-
dian Railway shares have fallen heavily. French
shares retain steadiness, but many continental de-
scriptions exhibit depression. The increased heavi-
ness of British railway shares also forms a striking
feature of the market. Sales have been pressed of
late on orders from the country. Caledonian Rail-
way stock has suffered severely, the sales being
principally on Scotch account.
Consols, which were quoted at 4 o'clock yesterday
at 891 for the ith December, opened this morning at
891 to 1, and ranged during the greater part of the
day between 891 and 891 to 1. At 4 o'clock the
puce was 891 to 1. After 4 o'clock the quotation
rose suddenly to 891, " buyers," but subsequently
relapsed to 891. For money the 4 o'clock quotation
was 891. The official business report is as
follows:—Three per Cent. Consols, for money,
881, 891, 891, 89,891, 881 ; ditto, for account (7th
Dec.), 891, 4, 1,1, 1. 'Mee per Cents. Reduced,

Turkish Six per Cents. advanced about / per

foreign securities were quiet. Sales are recorded as

Discount and Crystal Palace shares were also flatter.

On the 9th inst., passed the Royal Mail steam-
ship Niagara, hence ; the l'ersia, hence , arrivcd at New

The financial affairs at New Orleans were as

Several additional murders have been committed,

Money at New York was easier, and prime paper

The general produce markets are exhibiting no

Wheat was active and Indian corn quiet, each

Business in home mining stocks today is very
dull. The chief inquiries are for Alfred Consols
shares, which have been dealt in in the Stock Ex-
change at 171. In other descriptions no transactions
are reported from that establishment. Prices are
nominally quoted in most cues the same as before,
but the tendency is drooping.
The shares of the General Mining Association
(Nova Scotia) have been dealt in at 14, and Dun

innsedistely exchangeable value, those who h Mot
were worth hundreds of thousands, found tinges
'slue, for want of coin, almost without the maim
of effecting the most necessary purchases. The
enormous quantity of coined gold now circa-
listing in England would render such an emergency
u this utterly out of the question. For all purposes
of circulation, for all the every day wants and
transactions of the community, there is specie
sesegb and to spare. But there is very little loan-
shis money. There is hoarding. There is an eager-
ness for safe investments, which tends, amid all em-
barrassments, to keep up the price of public securi-
ties, but there is no disposition to leave money in the
hands of thew who employ it in discounts. Hence
all great employers of labour, all who conduct great
enterprises on borrowed capital, are necessarily
straitened, and this of course soon tells on all climes
of the population. Mills cease working, hands
an turned off, building and all other spun.
lades trades come to a standstill. Hence dis-
tress in the great working class, and all
its long train of consequent calamities. Our
sympathising friends across the Ocean not unreason-
ably anticipate that we shall yet have to pass
through a period of this kind. It is, indeed, only
too probable that we shall not be able to escape tin
islets of that monetary crisis which, having pro-
strated America, i•pow spreading over Europe, bat
it is equally cern that if true to ourselves
we have nothing to fear from it except
temporary inconvenience. With a vast amount of
specie circulation, with a sound trade, and the meat
unshaken public confidence—there is no reason why
we should not bear up against the combined pres-
sure of Indian war and American panic with the
...me triumphant elasticity which in the first fifteen
years of the century sustained us, with a population
only two-thirds as numerous, and • trade not one-
fifth so expanded, against burdens to which those of

IRE BANN CHAITER.-MIOI7NO 41TREADINO.

A meeting wee held on Wednesday at Reading,
to coneider the operation of the Bank Charter Act with refer •
epee to the monetary_ crisis. Mr. G. Paulen, the mayors
presided, and Mr. WILLIAM MALIAN, Oi London, addressed
the meeting at some length upon the subject, giving an
eliberate explanation of the present system, and contending
that it was absolutely neoe.vy to substitute some better
rephitions for the teat-ken bill of 1844, which made it
illegal to asse more thee the smell amount of fourteen
minims on secruitke, however great the requirements of the
country might be, or to reduce that new when, in times of
ease end prosperity, knoteen millions were not required.
The lecturer proceeded to advocate the substitution of a
isms of Beak notes upon securities, and that
Einknar deportment of the Bank of England, with all its
grata, &odd go for the benefit of the nation instead of for
the hands of the disesboldere cc holders of Bank dock.
Kr. Matins advocated the entire esparetion of the issue de-
fray' the Beak of England, and calling it the
rritsitted Bask of England," which should isms notes on
the &peek of geld seed silver bullion convertible into dime
meSda, 60_ sot M the option of the holder. Notes given foe
gold Amid be texavenible into gold, and notes on govern-
ment esetnities should be reconvertible into those govern-
ment securities, but so long as the notes on securities were
out the interest on those securities should owe. Bums*
the public had 14 millions of Mint notes on the deposit of
exchequer bills the interest on the exchequer bill would
=lnd government would awe or gain it. But when the
required the notes they would come and
take mat the exchequer bills again, end the interest, say at
three per cent., would go on. This, Mr. Maine contended,
would obviate the objection to very cheep money, because no
banker would got sous without ming the Aud rate of %B-
rest foe then. A vote at without

LATEST INTELLIGENCE.

THE EVENTS IN INDIA AND THE EURO-

PEAN POWERS.

We read in the Paris Pays:—" Several English
journals, speaking of the recent events in India, ac-
cuse one of the great powers of Europe of having
by its intrigues excited the natives to revolt. These
accusations appear to be devoid of foundation, and
wo are soured that they are contradicted by an
official document recently issued by the Governor-
General of India himself. This document declares
that the revolt was spontaneous, that it was pro-
duced by numerous internal causes, and that up to
the present time no trace of any foreign excitation
has been discovered."

On the other hand, the Prase stateq, on the an-
thority of a traveller just arrived from Ems, that at
a grand dinner given the other day, at which Rus-
sian Boyards only were present, the host proposed
the health of the " Great Mogul," and that the tout
was received with frantic applause.

esseln the Dino, and hind over all influence and
aufkority in Turkey to our inveterate enemies.
Polity wilisortidghted is scarcely to be conceived.
The dominant idea with Lord REDCLIYIE and
Lord Pm-Amu-yes luta been, notreally to strengthen
the Turkish empire, but to concentrate all power at
Constantinople--u if that were strength. The true
strength of the Em • would be to attach the out-
lying p the Government—not sacrifice
Ihem thereto, and thereby render them disaffected
and weak. Gratify the fair demands of the Principa-
lities, and they will be bulwarks for the defence of
Turkey. Disappoint, trick, despoil, and discontent
them, and you have provinces which, like Lombardy
in Austrian possession, require an army to keep
them.

And for what purpose do we labour to concentrate
all power at Constantinople ? On what does power
there depend? On a corrupt Minister, or a capri-
cious concubine. If England lords it one day in the
Bosphorus, France is sure to do so the next, and
Russia, we may be sure, will hare its turn. No
one can be sure for twenty-four hours of the colour
or policy of a Turkish Government. It was moat
important at the present moment, in the face of an
Indian mutiny, and with the probable resuscitation
of the Persian war, to keep a Turkish Minister in
power who was the friend of England. Instead of
keeping this in view, we stir heaven and earth
against the Union of Moldavia and Wallachia—as
if that were a question of either vital or secondary
importance. Yet to it have been sacrificed the
vizierate of RFACHID and the influence of our Am-
. bassador. Never, surely, was there so complete an
exemplification of the sacrifice of the grande poll-
tips to the petite.

TEA MILITIA.

This morning was issued the bill presented by
Lord Putnam, iatiteled "An Act to Authorise the Em-

" Whereat, the sedan domed for the service in India of •
large Jody of her Majesty's refoler forties may render it ex-
pedient to draw oat end embody the militis or some past of
the militia of the United Kingdom; be it therefore enacted
by the Qamm's most Excellent Majesty, by end with the
advice sad Naiad el the lords spiritual and temporal, sad
Commas, in this present parliament essembhd, and by the
authority of the same, as follows
" It shall be lawful for her blejesty, and for the Lord
Lieutenant or other chief governor or governors of Ireland
respectively, at soy limo after the pasting of this act, end
before the 25th day of March, 18,18, to cause all or say part
of the respective militias In England, Soutland, sod Ireland,
to be drawn out end embodied in like manner as in the re-
overtire eases in which such militias are now by law autho-
rised to be drawn out and embodied.
" All the provisions of the art relating to each respective

for end in the case of the drawing out and embodying of such
militias, In this cases is whkh tho men may now by law be

ment or prorogation which wiz not expire within fourteen
days) shall not be applicable in the case of the militia or any
