;,.. We have received Halifax Papers to the Bth of June. We
extract the following :
' BANK OF BRITISH NORTH AMERICA.—We aro happy to an-
--,;„ nounee that letters have been received here from the Court of
. . Directors of London by the packet, and that by the next the
inanag,'cr of the Branch of the institution to be established in
---z: Hal'Ax may be expected with a supply of specie, when busi-
i "ass will be immediately commenced. The Branch Bank of
British North America, established in this city and Montreal,
; are paying in specie all claims existing against them.— Quebec
Gazette.
New Brunswick Papers to the 7th of June state that Sir
John Harvey has called a meeting of the Legislature of the
/ province, which is to be opened on Thursday, the 6th of
, July next.
. HALIFAX, MAY 31.—A large number of respectable mer-
chants of the town, fearful that difficulties and embarrassments
.5 would be thrown upon the community by the stoppage of dis-
, counts, addressed a letter on Monday to the Presidents and
Directors of the Banks, suggesting the propriety of their sus-
pending specie payments at the present time. Yesterday the
~ Presidents and Directors resolved to adopt the views of the
merchants who had addressed them. After the discussion
._ took place the merchants made a communication to his Ex-
: cellency, to direct the principal officers of the Customs to re-
ceive the duties payable to that department in Treasury or
. , Bank notes.
ST. JOHN, New BkUNSWICK.—The Banks of this city, in
accordance with the wishes expressed at the meeting, have
suspended specie payments for the present. The proceeding
~., meets with the unanimous approval of the public.
The Bank of Fredrickston and the Charlotte County Bank
--- have also suspended specie payments during the present dis-
turbed state of the Money Market, in order to prevent the
drain of specie.
Montreal Papers to the 13th June have been received. Tho
.1. Quebec Official Gazette contains a proclamation, proroguing
the Provincial Parliament of Lower Canada to the 15th July
—not for the despatch of business. There was a rumour that
the City Bank intended to issue tokens of silver and copper,
in order to facilitate the making of small change. The crops
t, in the eastern townships looked well.
4 The New Brunswick Courier gives the subjoined Roya
Gazette Extraordinary :
" COUNCIL CHAMBER, JUNE 1, 1837.—Sir Archibald Camp-
bell, Bart., G. C. 8., having resigned his office of Lieutenant.
Governor of the Province, Major-General Sir John Harvey,
Knight, Commander of the Royal Hanoverian Guelphic Or-
der, appointed to succeed him, came this day to the Council
Chamber, and presented his Commission ; which being read,
his Excellency took the usual cells, and assumed the Admi-
nistration."

On Saturday no business wasFUNDS done in the City, with the
exception of paying the dividends at the Bank of England ;
and the banking-houses paying the bills of exchange due on
that day, which were presented. The Stock Exchange was
livery thinly attended ; no business of consequence done ; and
t closed at two o'clock. Consols left off at 90i for Money,
Vand 92i i for the Account; opened this morning at 92i i ;
IT. Money, 90i 91. Exchequer Bills, 40 42; India Bonds,
40 42 ; Bank Stock, 209 210.
Spanish Active closed on Saturday at 21 ex Coupons, at
20i, with a very heavy market, owing to -the accounts
from the armies in Spain being unfavourable, by which it ap-
lpears the Carlist army has joined that of Cabrera, and march..
ing on Vellehtia. Portuguese, 43i 44f ; Three per Cents.,

HALF-PAST ONE.
Some passengers, who have landed from the New York
!packet ship Washington, which was off Cape Clear, state
'li that Louis Buonaparte was on board, on his way to England.
To the present hour there is no feature of importance in
the City worth observation.

THE .
Consols continue buoyant, and share improved since the
morning from 92;1 A- to 92a i- for the Account. Little has
been doing during the morning. The City is in some bustle
owing to the number of persons proceeding to the Bank to
receive their dividends. Exchequer Bills improved, 42 44

Stock, 2581.

Up to the present hour the meetingruv to support Mr. Horsley
Palmer is very thinly attended, while that of the Reformers is
much crowded.
Very little doing in the Share Market—prices arc much
the same.

' _ We regret to learn that the Wesleyan Methodists
' O',of Sheffield have completely deserted the Liberal candidate
and coalesced with the Tories. Mr.
Ward, in his address,
'which will be found in another column, is at pains to distill.
guish between a just attachment to the Church of England,
to which he himself belongs, and the narrow and exclusive
. system which would make its bearing on the Church the
. test of every measure. "If
we talk," he says, " of giving
„municipal- rights' to Ireland, we are told that the Church
quids in the way of it ! If we propose a provision for their
0:A-starvin,g, poor, the tithes and the clergy must be included in
t,the bargain ! If we wish to relieve the English Dissenters
, 'from Church-rates, we arc met by the cry of spoliation and

An inhabitant of St. Omer was amusing himself a
few days since with a heavy landing net, when, throwing it
with all the force of a vigorous arm, it became entangledin a
button of his coat, and carried him to the bottom of therivere.

He would inevitably have formed a meal for the very tribe h
intended to make a part of his own repast had not a fisherman
~i.: opportunely come up in his boat, and succeeded, not without
entangled

in forthe net, that he had not the power of using any exertion
