THE EXPRESS, TUESDAY E

whisk hn already been agekuvatad by the open-'
lions of Ile Leadenball-atree4 authorities, the Com-
pany are again clamorously besieging the Bank for
another million! Now, however, matters are changed:
the Bali' c have no money to spore; and public
curiosity is agape to see what measures will next be
resorted to. That Ministers should have allowed
matters to come to such a pass, after repeated warn-
ings, is absolutely disgraceful, and it would be only
a fit punishment if they were made individually sad
collectively responsible for the sum representing
the difference between the price at which a loan
might have been raised a few weeks ago, and that at
which it will ultimately have to be raised. The
additional unnecessary cost to the nation will un-
doubtedly be very considerable, and yet even that
will be of secondary importance compared with the
inconvenience which is inflicted upon the whole
commercial community by the competition of the
East India Company for money in the midst of a
monetary crisis.
