MONEY FOR TEE WAR.

"We are bound over," said Lord Brougham,
some years ago, " in a sum of 800 millions to keep
the peace." " The fact is," said the Times news-
paper iu 1847,—iu that confidential tone which
men assume when about to state a palpable fiction
—" the fact is, the nation is poor." About the
same time Sir Robert Peel announced that the
distress then pervading the country was produced
by " a dearth of capital."
The conviction that England could not afford to
go to war was all but universal. Acting on this
conviction the Government of Lord Aberdeen made
every possible effort to maintain peace at any cost.
Acting on this conviction, Mr. Cobden and Mr.
Bright, and the Manchester party, denounced war
under any circumstances, trusting that they should
thereby secure popular support. " For when it
comes to the point," reasoned these philosopherB
of cotton, " the people neither can nor will pal
war taxes." The Emperor of Russia calcu-
lated in a similar way. His Majesty, 11°
doubt, takes in an English paper or two
—as well as that " dear Aberdeen,"—and in
former days he obtained, we believe, from the
late Lord Ashburton a sufficient knowledge of the
Currency Question to enable him to appreciate our
financial difficulties. Nevertheless, the war is
going on, taxes are imposed and paid ; trade,
though not in so flourishing a condition as it was,
is, on the whole, good ; the funds keep up, a 11",,
two or three millions more or less for sending out
our soldiers on a tour in the East, and our sailors
on a cruise in the Baltic, seem to Mr. John Bull
Toots a thing of " no consequence."
How, now, we ask, has all this come about ? A
power has been in operation of which Peelites, People,
Cotton Lords, and Czars have but a very inade-
quate idea. That power is Paper Money. It has
always been the avowed opinion of those who ad'
vocated the system of money made use of during
the last war by William Pitt, in opposition to the
one introduced by Sir Robert Peel, that with an
adequate circulating medium this country might
prosper either in war or peace. Not, of course,
equally. War is an enormous evil every way,
whether viewed in a political, moral, or commercial
aspect.
But as the country made great progress in spite of
the long war, with the counteracting advantage of
an adequate paper circulation, so, we have always
contended, it might do again under similar circum-
stances.

But Peel's Bill remains the law of the land, and
we are, notwithstanding, bearing up against the
evils of war. Quite true. And every one, with
very little consideration, may know the reason why.
The Gold Discoveries have neutralised, to a great
extent, the pernicious effects of Peel's Bill. There
have been minor causes at work in the same direc-
tion. The facilities afforded by railways for the
transmission of money from one place to another,
the opportune economising of the circulating_
medium by the London bankers, the removal of
trade restrictions—these, and other things, hay°,
co-operated with the extraordinary discoveries os
gold to secure to this country a circulation !ilia'
cent to afford the indomitable energies and indus-
try of the English people something like fair play
Gold has flowed into the country from Australia in
such abundance as to enable the Bank, notwith-
standing adverse foreign exchanges, to retain
in its coffers gold enough to form a basis for an
adequate circulation. Without this most unex-
pected and powerful ally—we mean Californian and
Australian gold—in what an unenviable position.
would England have now been placed ! We should
have had dear bread, bad trade, war, and high
taxes.
And in what jeopardy are we still placed by our
absurd monetary system. By the last Bail
Return it is true that the stock of bullion amounts
to between 13 and 14 millions, showing a decrease
from the former statement of not more that
190,1951. Still this indicates that the export °I
bullion is not yet checked. And, meanwhile, the
reserve of notes in the Banking Department is
very small (6,244,4851.). A good harvest vnly
doubtless, be in our favour. But we have Ina"e
the prosperity of the country mainly dependent on.
the power of retaining a few millions of gold in the
vaults of the Bank. Let this bullion be with-
drawn, and a very few months would change the
whole state of affairs. Without gold it is decreed
that we shall have an inadequate supply of money ;
this inadequate supply of money inevitably pro-
duces declining trade, and, as a matter of course,
depressed agriculture follows ; then comes the ruin'
of the capitalist and the starving penury of the
labourer and operative.
Our resources for carrying on the War would
then be exactly what the Czar would wish theal
to be.—Derbyshire Courier.

CITY, TWO o'CLOCK.
The sales of cotton at Liverpool yesterday
were estimated at from 8,000 to 10,000 bales,
including 1,500 American and 1,000 Surat taken
for export and on speculation. The market closed
firmly with prices of American tight, and all other
kinds unchanged. The sales comprised 500 Per-
ham and Maranham at 61d. to 7d., 200 Bahia at
Gid. to 61d., 600 Egyptain at 54d. to 9d., 2,000

any undue deficiency therein) dispense with the re-

tion thereof, if they be such as are liable on delivery to
. the payment of duty according to the landing weight, mea-

Warehousekeeper or proprietor of the warehouse may (first
being satisfied as aforesaid) dispense with the re-weighing,

The Overland Mail from Calcutta and Madras
has arrived at Suez, and is expected here about

Accounts from Copenhagen state that a change
of Ministry there was imminent, in consequence of
the importunity of the Allied Governments for
permission to winter their ships in certain ports of
the kingdom, and also to lodge the military in the
towns. Some very inconvenient and onerous ar-
' rangements appear to be in existence between Den-
mark and Russia, contracted before the present
War broke out, and unless a direct rupture is in-
tended, the Danish Government would incur great
risk by extending to British ships-of-war the con-
, cessions asked. The merchants of the German
Baltic ports are still complaining of the interference
of neutral vessels, and the manner in which they
are overhauled upon the pretext of searching for
contraband of war. This, however, is only what
might be expected, and if some vigour were
not exercised by our- cruisers, we should hear
') more cases of the escape of rich prizes. Cap-
Jerjau, of •the Russian merchant ship
.....%-kesarowitch had a most valuable cargo from the

despite the four cruisers that were looking for him.
For this he has received from St. Petersburg a

411; and the chief pilot has obtained a gold medal

There has been an average business done in the
-u-leglish lines, the quotations undergoing but slight
alteration, although, upon the whole, scarcely so
good as yesterday. Great Northern are flatter,
Shrewsbury and Birmingham have been at a slight
advance, York and North Midland are maintained,
and Brighton are fluctuating. The foreign lines
have been firm, but very quiet.
In Mining Shares there is no life. The Joint-
Stock Banks have been rather cheaper, and there is
a decline in the Australian Agricultural Land
shares. Peel River also are flat, and Crystal
Palace rule heavy.

SUGAR.—There has been rather more inquiry, at about
Friday's rates, but the public sales are still progressing.
Duty paid samples have realised full rates. Floating car-
goes are wanted. The quantity of British Plantation
landed let week at the East and West India Docks was
1,187 hhds 148 tierces 830 barrels. There were taken for
home consumption 961. hhds 68 tierces 485 barrels. The
stock in the same places is 9,552 hhds, 1,678 tierces 3,476
barrels. Refined brown lumps are at 44s per cwt.
COFFEE. There is a quiet market, although yesterday
the demand was better for Native Ceylon at 44s to 455.
There are buyers of Plantation at full rates. Custa Rica
has been in more request.
Rum.—The quantity landed last week at the East and
West India Docks was 964 puns 191 hhds ; there were
taken for home consumption 297 puns 42 hhda, and ex-
ported 239 puns 289 hhds. The stock in the same places is
9,4-.7 puns 1,951 hhds.
RICE.—At auction 2,400 bags BengaL were offered, and
all bought in at 12s 6d for mid.
PIMENTO.—At auction 700 bags were nearly all sold at
sjd to 68d for mid coarse to good mid even.
TEA.— The demand has been limited, but holders are
firm. Ord congou is at lid per lb, with a prompt sale.
TALLOW.—P.Y.C. is 673 3d per cwt on the spot,
