The weather to-day, as on Thursday, was delightfully fine,
and the company, although not so numerous, was equally
fashionable. Upon the whole this meeting, notwithstanding
the atmospheric drawbacks of Tuesday and Wednesday, equalled
in point of attraction and interest any by which it was pre-
ceded. The pleasures of the week terminated with a grand
ball, given by the stewards, Sir John Gerard and Mr. Thorn-
hill, to which all the fashionables in the neighbourhood were
invited. It was a splendid assemblage and afforded the highest
gratification to the guests.
The promises of sport for next season are highly flattering.
Among other prizes it is expected that the Cup won yesterday
by Harkaway will be again contended for, it having been
stated that Messrs. Garrard have purchased it of Mr. Ferguson.
The stewards are Lord Eglintoun and Colonel Peel.
The Goodwood Cup race was run in four minutes and fifty-
eight seconds.
As three horses did not run for the City Plate on Wednesday
the 100 sous. were withheld.

MONEY AND COMMERCIAL NE WS

CITY, TWELVE O'CLOCK.
The New York packet-ship, Westchester, of the 13th
ult., has arrived, by which American papers to the above
date have been received. Business in New York was dull,
and the exchanges had advanced to ten per Cent., at
which rate the United States Bank were drawing. United
States Bank Stock, 1131. Cotton was declining in price.
There is no news of importance from Canada, everything
is quiet along the lines.
LATEST FROM VERA. CRUZ. -- The United States
frigate Constitution, with Mr. Ellis, our Minister,
on board, arrived from New York on the 16th. Tuspan
has capitulated to the Government forces. The insurrec-
tion appears to be nearly at an end.
FitomlCANToN.—The British schooner Attaran, with 130
chests of opium on board, and a quantity of specie, was lost
near the island of Nampang, China, on Feb. 3, captain and
crew saved, together with about 3,000 dollars in specie;
after they abandoned the vessel she was burnt by the
Chinese.

From the Stamp-office return of the quarterly aggre-
gate of the amount of notes circulated in England and
Wales, by private banks and joint-stock banks, between
the 30th March and the 29th June, 1839, as compared
with the former return, it appears that the private banks
have, reduced their issues in the sum of 31,3961. ; on
the other hand the joint-stock banks have inercased theirs
in the sum of 47,7471., showing that the total circulation
has increased in the sum of 16,3511. From the return it
appears that the private banks have been compelled to
limit their issues in consequence of the late difficult state
of the Money market.
