GERMANY.

We learn from Munich that the Ministerial crisis
has terminated, as it is arranged that the Chambers
shall be prorogued, and that a plenipotentiary shall
be sent to the Customs Congress at Berlin.
An arrangement will also shortly be effected of the
religious differences respecting the Jesuit raission-
cries. They will be allowed to preach in Bavaria,
but on condition not to establish themselves in the
country. This result has been brought about at an
audience the PRESIDENT of the Council obtained of
his MAJESTY, and by a conference with the Ministers.
The Hanoverian General JACOBI arrived in Bre
men on the 23d. Hie Government has promised to
support him with 1,000 troops in case of need.
A most marvellous miracle is announced to have
occurred in Vienna. The remote provinces of the
Austrian empire, or the mountainous districts of the
German Tyro), have been hitherto generally
considered by the spiritual authorities as a
more appropriate field for their operations.
Black virgins, endowed with miraculous power,
richly enshrined on mountain altars ; blood-
stained pictures ; and maidens whose pores
periodically bleed for the benefit of the devout,
are phenomena already familiar to those who have
travelled in Austria or Bavaria, but the metropolis
itself has been favoured in the present instance. The
miracle now offered to the serious gaze of the faith-
ful is simply the impression of a blood-red cross, on
a table, left by a phantom that appeared to a sister
of the Elizabeth order of nuns. It appears that some
little mistake had occurred—amounting, perhaps, to
a misappropriation—with respect to the funds set
apart for the repose of the soul of the spectre in ques-
tion, who accordingly came in the middle of the night
to the chamber of the nun, to lodge her complaint (it
should be premised that the apparition was a female).
She bitterly complained of the imposture by which
she was cheated out of her repose, and vanished,
with a promise to repeat the visit until the requisite
number of masses bad been said and paid for. The
appalled sister immediately took up the case of her
heavenly visitant, and the inquiries she instituted
fully confirmed every particular in the grievance,
as stated by the ghost ; a subscription was there-
fore set on toot, and a sufficient sum collected to
pacify the disturbed spirit, whose visits then ceased.
On the occasion, however, of its final appearance, the
devout sister naturally asked for some sign, there bee
ing no witnesses present to testify to the miraculous
interposition. This the spirit kindly consented to
give, and left the mark of a cross on the table—with
which the nun expressed herself satisfied. Thus was
added another to the list of a thousand and one mi-
racles performed in Austria in the nineteenth cen-
tury ; and as the story is believed by a large number of
the lower classes, it is not to be wondered that many
persons despair of the light of truth ever penetrating
these regions.

MONEY and COMMERCIAL NEWS.
CITY, TWO O'CLOCK.
The Liverpool Cotton Market was quiet yesterday.
Sales 4,000 bales, nearly all to the trade.—Railway
Shares were very flat at lower prices.
The increase in the anvAiiit of bullion in the Bark of
England coffers was last week not so marked, but about
anothfx quarter of a mill:on will bring up the total to
twenty millions sterling.. The circulation was reduced,
owing to an increase in the deposits, and a curtailment
of discounts. The item in other securities will show,
however, that the abundance of money has not yet ma-
terially interfered with the business of the Corporation.
Compared with the previous week, the alterations are as
follow:

Tho committee appointed to recover deposits upon
over 12,000 shares of the Madrid and Valencia Railway
have made their report, and from beginning to end it
bears strong testimony to the ruinous loss inflicted by
she operation of the Chancery s) stem, and the power a hich
unscrupulous individuals have not only to keep at bay
those who have just demands upon them, but likewise to
weary them by hazardous and expulsive contests into a
surrender of their just rights. We see every day at our
ordinary police courts cases of far less enormity than
those arising from companies' affairs visited with " fine
and imprisonment," but in Chancery the complainants
pay the fine, and the defendants have merely to amuse
themselves for a while out of the jurisdiction of the
court in order to escape the imprisonment. There are
cases now before the Masters in connexion with the
Winding-up Act that have dragged their slow length
along for two or three years, the pet of the solicitors
who nurse them, but the opprobrium of the courts and
the disgust of their officers. Every attempt of the un-
fortunate parties interested to extricate themselves by
an immediate sacrifice proves fruitless in face of a sys-
tem which affords such numerous facilities to the un-
scrupulous to procrastinate, and to heap costs upon costs.
Compromises in tho spirit of the Act are obstructed
until sufficient " pickings" have been had out of the
estate, pliant contributories aro stirred up to contest
knotty points of law, creditors are led on through every
stage by concealment of minute books and enforcement
of unnecessary proofs. In this way matters that could
have been arranged by arbitration in four hours remain
unsettled after four years, and the expenses exceed
threefold, in numerous instances, the original debts.
Ono cannot, therefore, feel surprised at the issue of the
Madrid and Valencia affair, for it has its parallel in the
office of every Master. Thanks to the energy and
firmness of one or two of those gentlemen who penretrate the object of the prime movers of litigation, th
have been some speedy and satisfactory arrangement:,
but these are the exceptions. The committee of the
Madrid and Valencia deplore the state of the law, and
after recording the various contrivances by which they
were impeded in their efforts, proceed to state:—
" Pending these proceedings the Act for winding-up
Joint-Stock Compsniee was passed, under which it was
immediately determined by your Committee to insti-
tute proceedings, which, however, upon consultation
with counsel, were deferred until cases before the Court
had been considered, from which it eventually appeared
that the Court had no jurisdiction in matters appertain-
ing to foreign railways, a defect which was subsequently
remedied mainly through the representations of your
Committee. In the interval between the dismay sissalub-
cf
the Bill and the passing of the remedial ct
. scribers had been convened, by whom it was at length
resolved that proceedings should forthwith be taken in
Ghancery against the directors."
",Mr. Chadwick then gave notice of a motion—to
dismiss the bill on payment of the full amount of Mr.
Scarth'e deposit and costa between party and party.
This motion was stoutly resisted, but the Court made
the order, and the bill was dismissed accordingly. Thus
foiled in law and in Chancery, your Committee resolved
that proceedings should be ts.ken under the Winding-up
Act, which had sow come into operation. Other parties
adopted the same course, and succeeded in enforcing the
repayment by Mr. Chadwick o the full amount of their
deposits and costs. These succfessful examples became
contagious. Petition succeeded petition until Mr. Chad-
wick was atlength compelled to submit to an order by
which the whole matter was referred to a Master, and all
further proceedings, in the court were virtually in-
terdicted. "
The issue of the struggle the committee put forward
in proof of the miserable in fficiency of our Chancery
system. The sum of 25,000/. has been withdrawn
from
the funds of the company, and appropriated to

the
private
purposes, but the law provides no remedy,
