and eminent individuals of all professions and opinions con,
cur in thinking this an excellent proposal, and recommend-
ing it by the weight of their names and influence. But not
so our enlighted Statesman, who preaches and squibs by
turns with zeal, to convert his ignorant countrymen from
darkness to light. does not consider an education such
as would enlarge the polVers of the mind, and help, while
it should urge it to inquire, a means of advancing that
object, or of serving the rural gentlefolk of Ireland. On
the contrary, it would be a great ihindrance to both. The
following possage from one of his lucubrations, is a psycho-
logical curiosity :
" We apprehend that in the present state of the population
of Ireland anything eilculdted to stimulate the appetite for
academic education and degrees is hut little calculated to serve
the interests of the cornimmity. We should say that the appe-
tite is too great as it is. The disposition in this country is to
rush to the professions—t) despise the humbler walks of in-
dustry. Hence trade languishes; the professions are over-
stocked ; and two very l'op;s'i evils, pride and poverty, are in
no very small degree augmented. We do seriously think that
an additional University in Ireland would be a great evil.
We should recommend the thinking people of Cork to set
their face against it."
If any consideration could add to the authority of so
grave a decision in favour of ignorance it would be this,
that the Rev. T. D. Greg.: was himself some nine months
since placed at the head of a once famous seminary, the
Feinagliao Institution of Du)lin, in which it was of course
his conscientious endeavour to " stimulate the appetite for
academic education an.l d-groes." It was one of those es-
tablishments for mixed education in which especial care
was taken not to provok,. th: Catholic pupils into uncom-
fortable collision with their or';er school-fellows by a simul-
taneous study of the sae red :olumes ; but under the magic
ferula of this renowned pe,lagogue the danger of such un-
seemly jostling was soon reduced to an impossibility, for in
a month or two the ha% aid lecture-rooms were swept
clean of Protestants and Catholics alike. -That specula-
tion havity, thus, to use the Irish phrase, gone to the bad,
he has taken to the more c..n;enial occupation of decrying
the species of knowledge which a discerning public would
not receive from his The fable of the fox that lost
his tail in a trap will supply the most appropriate mo:al t o

MONEY AND CITY NEWS•

(FROM THE MORNING PAPERS OF THIS DAY.)
TIME S.—The paper money mania appears to be spread-
ng far and wide, and no example perhaps need be desired of
the perdicious absurdity of the lengths to which it may be car-
ried than the establishment of a Joint-stock Bank already
alluded to, which was actually announced in St. Domingo,
according to advices from thence of the latter end of Sep.
tember. One of the principal reasons assigned for this
scheme was the difficulties experienced in procuring specie
for the payment of duties. This, it appears, had forced the
Government to accept bills on Europe at the enormous rate of
exchange of 156 per cent., but on the following conditions
Two bills were to be taken from each house having duties to pay,
and a third after the receipt of advices of the acceptance of the
first drawn. The rateable amount of each bill had not been
fixed, but the same facilities were to be given to every house,
whether the bill was for the amount of 1,000 dollars,
or as there called gourdes, or of 50,000 dollars. The capital
of the bank was to be 500,000 dollars, in 5,000 shares of 100
dollars each, and it is stated that several of the leading inha-
bitants of Port-au-Prince were at the head of the undertak-
ing. The statutes of the Bank bad been published, and were
ratified with the approbation of the President of the Republic.
Nothing, it appears, was wanting to enable the Bank to re.
some operations but the filling up the list of subscriptions for
shares, the whole amount of which was to be paid down in
the legal currency of the country. It seems rather an awk-
ward method of inviting shareholders, or of gaining credit
for its paper money, to announce as a cause for starting a
Bank the impossibilith of finding specie sufficient to carry on
the most common transactions of business, and that too in a
produce exporting country. The fact does not augur much
for the profit or stabiay of the Bank, although, by way of
temptation, it is held out that the legal rate of interest in the
island is fixed at 12 per cent., whilst the current rate was 24 per
cent. per annum, and sometimes as high as cent. per cent. per
annum, for a week or other short period. It is singular that a
joint-stock bank had been formed some time since in this
country for Havannah, where specie is notoriously plentiful,
although the rate of interest, notwithstanding this difference
of circumstance, is often as high as from 15 to 25 per cent.
per annum, or as much as 2} per cent. per month, for periods
of one, two, or three months. Whether specie is scarce, as
in St. Domingo, or abundant, as it is in France and Haven-
nah, it would appear to create no impediment or suggest no
doubts of the ultimate profit of paper money making in the
minds of speculators. The recent example of the United
States would seem to be viewed as rather of an encouraging
tendency than otherwise, by showing with what facility bads
can evade their engagements and suspend their payments,
when pressed by the holders of notes to redeem them in specie,
according to the promise to pay on the face of them. It re.
mains to be seen whether the blacks of St. Domingo will be
as readily induced to part witt their sugar and coffee in ex-
change for bank paper as the cotton planters of Alabama and
Mississippi for the notes of the hanks of those States.

ROYAL SOCIETY OF HORTICULTURE AND
AGRICULTURE.—The first cv,:niog exhibition for the session
took place yesterday evening-, at the new and commodious
rooms of the society in the S:rand, G. Glenny, Esq , in the
chair. The specimens of plants were numerous, considering
toe inclemency of the sea on, amongst which was Correa Rufa,
a plant seen nearly for the fiat time in flower- ; a new species
of Loelia, from Mex'co, never before seen in flower in Eng-
land ; several blooms of Ip-nnea Horsfallii, a very pretty spe-
cimen of Cytisus Elegans, &c., front Mr. Glenny. Several
collections of wax flowers excited much attention;as did various
models of horticultural buil,lihgs, instruments, &c. Professor
Johnson next delivered a lecture on the mosses, and their
utility in the objects of nature, and the Chairman stated the
object of the Society, which was for the practical illustration of
botany and its collateral sti,j,crs.
The Sunderland Tories were all cock-a-hood
before the Municipal E'ectims—talked solemnly of the vast
importance of the result—ao I boasted largely of the success
which awaited their eff :rts in the contest. But now—" the
grapes are sour." " It is perhaps better that things should
remain as they are, for a short period longer," says their
philosophic organ. " A majiirity of the rate-payers (adds
this Tory authority) arc strongly impressed with the idea of
the Corporation being an illegal one, and that such it will
speedily be pronounce'.—consequently they would not ac-
knowledge its authority by vi,ting at all l" " Tell that to the
marines !" exclaim the Sunderland tars—and well they may,
after all the vaunting announcements that " a majority of the
rate-payers" would assuredly vote with the apostatefarceur.—

CHRONICLE.—ConsoIs are a little higher to-day, and
the English Stock-market generally presents a more satis-
factory appearance, although the business transacted in it is
not very extensive ; but this, indeed, is a period of the year
when there is not so much business going on. Consols for
Money and the Account closed at 744 to Three-and-a
Half per Cents. Reduced, 101 to ; New ditto, 102 k to I;
Exchequer Bills, 68s. to 70s. prem.; India Bonds, 635. to
65z. prom. ; Bank Stock, 203 to 204; and India Stock, 261
to 262. _

_
The exportation of the precious metals from the port of
London for the week ending the 10th instant, Saturday last,
consisted, according to the official returns, of 845 ounces► of
gold bars, which were sent to Hamburg; 300 ounces of gold
coin, which were shipped for South Australia; 15,419 ounces
of silver bars, forwarded to Madras; and 31,669 ounces of
silver coin, of which 15,000 ounces were sent to Rotterdam,
8,446 ounces to the West Indies, 5,000 ounces to Hamburg.
and 3,223 ounces to South Australia.

PO ST.—We glean from the advices received from the ma-
nufacturing districts that money for commercial purposes con-
tinues full as easy there as in the metropolis, and that the
country bankers generally are more inclined to make advances
upon good security than they were a week or two back. There
seems to be no doubt but this state of affairs has tended much
to promote the autumn trade, which, however, we trust may
not be overdone through an overweening confidence on the
continuance of the present state of the Money Market.
The transactions in the continental exchanges have been in
extent about the same as for some days past, and although
there has not been an alteration in them, the tendency seems
to he upwards. On Amsterdam the quotation is 12 4+ to
on Rotterdam at 12 4to on Hamburg at 13 101, and on
Paris at 25f. 70c. to 25f. 72f e.
The British Funds have been firmer to-day and the im-
provement in the quotations appears to have been accelerated
by the continued purchases of the Commissioners of Reduced
Stock, which they resumed this morning to the extent of
40,0001., partly on account of the Savings Banks, and
partly on account of the Government, against annui-
ties granted. This circumstance has caused the bear party to
buy back their stock, and by consequence Consols have ad-
vanced to 941, sellers for Money, and 941 to s for Account.
The heavier annuities have also improved. Bank Stock is
2034 for Money, and India Stock 262. Exchequer Bills re-
main at 68 to 70 prem., and India Bonds are 63 to 65.
There has not been any speculation of moment in the Fo-
reign Market to-day. Portuguese New Five per Cents. have
slightly improved, and are quoted at 311 to a. and the Three
Fel. Cent. ditto at 201 to 4. Spanish Active Bonds, with the
unpaid Coupons, are 171 ; Brazilian Bonds have advanced to
78} to 79, and Colombian to 24k; Danish Bonds are 741;
Dutch Two-and-a- Half per Cents. are 54i to -; and the Old
Five per Cents., 100-1 to 101. United States Bank Shares
are 25i.
There has not been much request for Shares to-day. Great
Western Railway are 13k to 14 prem. ; Brighton are If to I-
dis. ; and Black wall are 14 to dis. ; Greenwich,* to 3 dis. ;
and Southampton, 31 dis. • London and Westminster Bank
Shares are 3f prem. ; and London Joint Stock Bank, 3a to
prem.

A sporting friend expresses considerable doubt as
to the alleged fact that all persons following the hounds, are
chargeable with the game duty. He believes that the judges
have decided that farmers riding their own horses, are not liable
to the tax ; perhaps some legal correspondent will favour us
with a line on the point—as our agricultural friends must feel
much embarrassment in clearing an awkward looking fence, if
they fancy that a tax-gatherer lurks on the other side to sur-
charge them for their sport.— TVestern Times.
CHURCH RATES.—A. Correspondent of the Read-
ing Mercury, writes—" It is admitted by every liberal Church-
man that, if there is a 14w to compel those who dissent from
the Church to pay to its support, that the law is bad, and
ought to be altered—tais being admitted, is it any other than
a robbery, under the sanction of a bad law, which the church-
wardens of St. Giles's committed lately by causing the pro-
pe,ty of several individuals to be distrained upon for a rate
made twelve months back ? I should say that a Christian
man, or one directed by a proper feeling, would never strive
to put such a law in force—but how stands the case ? These
zealous men—these Sauls' of the present day—tried every
broker in Reading to assist them in the work, and not suc-
ceeding, they went to all the towns within many miles of the
place ; and, still proving unsuccessful, they actually made an
attempt to procure one from London, and failing in this, their
last effort was to resort to a part of the town called .‘ Silver-
street," and by means—l will not say what means—they ob-
tained the help of a very respectable individual, named Wig-
gins, to do the business for them. Is this a zeal for the
Church that is burning so fiercely in their bosoms, or is it a
vindictive spirit ?—if zeal, it is a " zeal, but not according to
knowledge."

On Saturday morning an inquest was held in the
Edgeware-road, on the body of a married female named Per.
tall, aged 22, wly) died under very distressing circumstances.
It appears that deceased, Rho was the wife of an artist resi-
ding in Newnham-street, had for some time past been in a
very delicate state of health, being subject to fainting fits. On
Wednesday morning she was seized with one of these fits, and
expired before medical, assistance could be obtained. She had
appeared in better health and spirits that morning than for
several weeks past. She had not been at all excited, and
lived on the most affectionate terms with her husband and

HERALD.—We continue without any foreign or colonial
advices containing information of the slightest moment. We,
however, subjuin the following extract, in substance, from a
letter addressed by a gentleman of high standing at Bombay
to a house of the highest respectability here, which was re-
ceived by the overland mail yesterday, and which, as it refers
to the aspect of political affairs in India, and the sluggish ad-
ministration of our Foreign Department, as well as that of
the Board of Control, with respect to those important relations
of the British empire, will be read with some degree of interest,
especially as it confirms, on good authority, the intelligence
which has already appeared in this journal :
" The public papers will have already informed you that we
are about to make an attempt to close our north-west frontiers
against the Russians, Persians, and Affghans. I trust that
this effort has not been too long neglected, and that we may
be efficiently prepared for the conflict which must ensue in
that quarter. You may confidently mention that Lord Clare
is in possession of a translated copy of an intercepted letter
from a Russian officer at Caboul to the Russian Ambassador
at Tehran, in which the plans of the Autocrat are clearly de-
veloped; and unless the details of what has taken place to
which this letter refers prove unfounded, your maudlin Lord
Palmerston must have the veil removed from his eyes.
" Our relations with Nepaul are in a very equivocal state.
It is stated that an embassy from the Nepaul Government was
stopped at Loadinaunat on the way to Herat, which cannot
leave the object of that interruption in doubt.
" The Burmese usurper is said to have lowered his tone,
but from his former conduct it is very questionable whether
he is only temporising until our main forces are engaged in
distant warfare. I must conclude by saying that, during my
long residence here, and certainly since the government of
Lord Wellesley, the political horizon of India has never ap-
peared so murky."
The Money Market continues in the same easy position
to which we have lately had occasion to refer, the rate of
interest between the bankers and bill-brokers being about
2f per cent. for short periods, and 3 per cent. upon deposits.
In the Continental Exchanges there has been no material
alteration, yet they are slightly firmer than they were on the
last post day : there has been, however, rather more business,
and the quotations have a tendency upwards. On Paris
they are quoted at 25f. 70c. a 25f. 72c. ; on Amsterdam, at
12 4 a 12 ; on Rotterdam, at 12 4 a 12 44-; and on
Hamburg;at 13 101.
The quotations in the British Funds have rather improved
to-day, and rather more business has been effected than usual.

friends. A medical gentleman was of opinion that death was
occasioned by the rupture of a blood vessel on the brain. Ver-
dict—" Died by the visitation of God." The same after-
noon, between four and five o'clock, the driver of one of the
Isleworth omnibuses, on his return from town, had just de-
scended from his seat when he was observed suddenly to stag-
ger and fall to the ground. Several persons instantly ran to
his assistance, who conveyed him to a surgeon's in the neigh-
bourhood, the blood flowing profusely from his mouth, having
ruptured one of the vessels of the heart. He died almost in-
stantly. The body was removed to the George Inn to await
a Coroner's inquest.
THE DUKE OF WELLINGTON'S RULES.—The
extraordinary facility in the dispatch of business which, with-
out interfering with other pursuits to encroach upon business,
for which he was ever remarkable, seems to us to be imputable
to the following rules:—First, never to postpone anything in
a spirit of procrastination, but only when postponement was
expedient or indispensable ; second, to give the preference on
every subject to broad practical views over ingenious subtleties ;
third, to be guided in dealings of all kinds, by fairness, mode-
ration, and justice; and, fourth, to regard decisions once made
as final, except in very special canes.—Edinburgh Review.
A buffalo lately made his escape from the Bristol
and Clifton Zoological Gardens, and found his way into the
city. He was pursued through the streets, where he caused
some alarm, but no injury ; and was ultimately reinstated in his
old quarters.
At present divine service is performed only twice a
day at Malton—in the morning at one church, and in the
evening at the other. The inhabitants are raising a subscrip-
tion for the purpose of defraying the expense of an additional

Fitzwilliam has headed the list with the munificent sum of
I,oool.—Doncaster Chronicle.

THREATENED DISTURBANCE AT STAMFORD.—
The town of Stamford has been thrown into a state of much
_
anxiety and excitement by a notice issued from the municipal
authorities, that Government has determined to suppress the
l
annual custom of what is called " bull running," a sport, if
the term may be so much misapplied,
in which the ruffians
and desperadoes of that place and its vicinity imagine they have
a license to indulge. Though prcnounced to be illegal by the
authority of the Court of Queen's Bench, a sullen and dogged
resolution to maintain it has been manifested by the lowest and
coarsest classes, and to bring this feeling within the bounds of
proper subordination, a body of metropolitan police officers
together with a troop of dragoons, have been ordered into the
town; and yesterday (the day appointed for celebrating this
barbarous and repulsive anniversary) witnessed, we hope
its peaceable and final abolition, without the necessity of re-
curring to those painful measures, which the laws of justice,
reason, and humanity alike require to be framed and enforced.
Upon the equal cruelty and cowardice of tormenting a poor
defenceless animal that its miseries may be made the source of
amusement to " some qt6utity of barren spectators," is an act
of which the true spirit of Englishmen can only speak in the
same words :
" E'en in the midst cf pleasure's mad career
The mental monitor shall wake and weep."
And let us hope that our fellow-citizens of Stamford are not
so lost to all feelings of mercy, or all sense of shame, as to
