We are glad to perceive that Mr. R. Lawrence,
treasurer of the Surrey Theatre, takes his benefit at that
theatre to-morrow evening, on which occasion a variety of enter-
tainments of a very superior description will be performed.
As this gentleman is well known and much respected in his
official capacity by the numerous visitors who frequent the
Surrey, we have no doubt that his benefit will attract a
crowded house.
Thursday a fire broke out in the large cotton mill
belonging to Messrs. Buxton, of Rochdale. The building
was in one entire blaze before the engines arrived, and in
about an hour it was a complete heap of ruins, with nothing
bat the walls standing. It is not known how the fire origi-
nated ; but it is supposed to have begun in the scutching
room.—Manchester Guardian.
A collision between a Hampstead omnibus and a
gentleman's private cab took place yesterday morning in the
narrow part of St. Giles's, opposite the church. The gentle-
man was thrown out of the cab with great violence, and re-
ceived much injury; he was taken up quite insensible, and
bleeding profusely from a severe wound on the temple. From
a card which was found in his pocket it appeared that his name
was Calvert Attwood, and that he lived in London-street,
Fitzroy-square, and he was conveyed there with all possible
expedition. The accident was occasioned by the wilful negli-
gence of the driver of the omnibus, which rendered it impos-
sible for Mr. Attwood in any way to avoid the collision.
NEW NAVAL NOVEL BY THE AUTHOR OF
RATTLIN TILE REEFER."--We have not learned whether it
is the intention of this writer to embody in his new work
(" Outward Bound") any of the extraordinary and romantic
incidents of his own actual career ; but if all that we have
heard concerning. that " strange eventful history" be true, we
can hardly conceive a finer subject for his eloquent and origi-
nal pen.
Nor
ido we call to mind any one writer of the day,
whose genius s better adapted to this most effective plan of
blending into one consistent whole the double interest of truth
and fiction.
Silt NV ALTER SCOTT'S MONUMENT.—Mr.
Cadell has published a letter to the Duke of Hamilton, in
which
be arraigns the taste of the sub-committee in their se-
lection of a plan for the monument. The sum subscribed is
onic 6,000/., and the plan chosen combines architecture and
sculpture, each of a description which, if well executed, would
absorb the whole sum. The architectural monument is a
Gothic spire or steeple, 135 feet high, to be placed at the east
side of Charlotte square. Mr. Cadell asks what relation this
has to the works and character of the great novelist ; and how
it A' ill harmonize with the Grecian, or rather the Roman style,
of the adjoining buildings? The design, too, is a plagiarism,
being substantially a copy of the spire planned by Mr. Hamil.
toil for the church,which was to be erected on the Castlehill.
A statue of Sir IN alter is to be placed in a niche of the
building, and this statue is to be executed by Mr. Steele, and
the expense defrayed from the remnant of the funds, if any
remain, after the spire is erected.—Scotsman.
Died, on Saturday morning last, Mr. Henry
Whittle, at the early age of 43. Mr. Whittle moved in va-
rious scenes of life ; but in all he was highly respected and
esteemed ;his integrity was never suspected—his talent of no
mean consideration. He wss, during the last ten years, a re-
gular contributor to the columns of this journal, as well as to
t; ese of a SunUay paper. During the last six or seven years
he was a martyr to the gout, of which he died. We regret to
learn that he has left a widow and numerous young family—all
females—wholly destitute ; but we trust to the efenerosity
and good feeling of those whose interests he served in life, to
t,ke care of his widow and children now that he cannot help

"I 'HE YEOMANRY.—We understand that intima-
vcn has been sent to Scotland by Lord John Russell of the in-
tention of Government to dissolve the several Yeomanry corps.
On Monday morning between seven and eight o'clock,
a gentleman, about 35 years of age, having the appearance of
a military officer, was observed walking in Hyde Park (on the
barks of both sides of the Serpentine River, and round the
basin), apparently in a desponding state of mind, but not at-
tlipting any rash act on his person. About half-past eight
o'clock some workmen, proceeding through the Park, near the
basin by Grosvenor-gate, observed the unfortunate gentleman
mount the iron railing of the basin and leap into the water,
which is very deep, and immediately disappear. Information
was promptly sent t ) the Royal Humane Society's house, and
in less thana quarter of an hour Mr. Pritchard discovered the
- body of the unfortunate gentleman. On being brought on
shore he was quite dead. He was attired in a blue coat, but-
toned close up to the chin, with yellow basket buttons, blue
trousers, with white stripes on the side, and Wellington boots.
Linen not marked. No document of any kind was found on
• his person to lead to his identification. The body was removed
to the workhouse, Mount-street.
ADVERTISING MONEY LENDERS.—We have
often called the attention of our readers to the impudent
attempts of the London advertising money lenders to get in-
cautious people into their clutches, under pretence of dis-
counting bills for them ; and we have now lying before us two
letters, with the post mark of the 12th inst. addressed to two
respectable houses in this town, drawn un in very similar
terms, indeed almost verbatim the same, but one purporting to
be signed by J. and W. Collins, Waterloo Bridge-road, and
tl,e other by J. and J. Grant, Albany-road, London. Both
these letters are directed in the same handwriting ; and we
may observe that it is a hand we have been accustomed to see
in such letters for these dozen years past ; the names of the
pretended money-lending firms, however, having been changed
perhaps twenty times within the period. Of course the par-
ties arc all swindlers.—Manchester Guardian.

The trading operations of the Bank of England are a sub.
ject of very warm controversy in the city, but it lies, neverthe-
less, in a very narrow compass. If gold is wanted and may
be exported at a profit to New York, the merchants will send
it ; the Bank Directors need not interfere, but may remain
quiet in their parlour, unvisited by any forebodinl,Ts of a doubt-
ful or ill managed speculation. If the gold is not wanted, it
may share the fate which has befallen our manufactures upon
the reaction of the American crisis, and remain unproductive
at home. It is absurd to mix up with the consideration of this
question any arguments of the good to be effected in America
in bringing about a resumption of cash payments, and the con-
sequent advantage to England in restoring activity to our
manufacturing system. All this will be effected, if at all, in
the natural progress of events ; the Bank is not wanted except
to give the gold in exchange for notes to those who intend to
export it. . .

It happens, indeed, that numerous parties, besides the
Bank, are already in the field, and engaged in sending out
bullion; several of the most eminent merchants in London
and Liverpool are making their insurances for specie simul-
taneously with the Bank, and placed accordingly in all the
peril of competition with an overgrown monopoly, which is
going out of its way to make all the profit that is possible,
conscious, perhaps, that the end of all is near at hand. Thus
we have two gigantic establishments, the Bank of England
and Mr. Biddle's self-called United States Bank, combining
to depress the mercantile interest on both sides of the Atlantic,
which they have already brought, by their vicious system of
management, into distress and confusion.
After all, most people find a difficulty of compre-
hending how this gold is to be employed when it ar-
rives out ; how is it to pass into the possession of the
banks, and produce the great desideratum of a return to
cash payments ; and what Mr. Cowell is to receive from
them in exchange for his sovereigns. This, however, is
his affair. Both the Bank and the other exporters may be
pretty sure that very little of the gold now sent will ever re-
turn. The policy of General Jackson had already accumu-
lated a very large metallic circulation when the banks broke
by one consent. The greater part was hoarded and with-
drawn from circulation, not sent to England. It remains in
the country, and is only not brought out again because people
have very properly lost all confidence in the banks. But if the
inhabitants, who must be by far the best judges, decline to
carry back their gold and silver to the vaults of the banks on
the spot, will it be a safe course for the Bank of England to
trust them ? The question is beset with difficulties on every
side, and it is not to be expected, when things are thus taken
out of their natural and proper course, that,.the issue can be
good.

MORNING POST.—The news received from Lisbon this
morning caused a decline of about per cent. in the Portu.
guese Bonds, but the Dutch Securities were done during the
day at an improvement of 1 per cent. on yesterday's quota-
tions, and the value of most other descriptions of Foreign
Stock was well maintained ; the Dutch Bonds were, how-
ever, not quite so favourably quoted at the close of the
Market. Consols opened firmly, and left off at an advance of
+ per cent. We hear no specific cause assigned for the
change. The measures taken by the Bank of England for
the relief of the American trade may have had sonseinfluence
on prices, as they seem to be viewed with much satisfaction by
commercial men. That they should be equally so to those
who have long since made up their minds to disapprove of the
policy pursued by the Directors, be it what it may, is more
than was to have been expected. We begin, we confess, to be
quite confounded by the strictures of the Press on monetary
affairs. A Morning; Paper of this day has a strange mixture
of praise and censure, as exhibited in its different articles
relative to the conduct of the Bank. The cant so often ut-
tered of late about a " secure and well-regulated paper cur-
rency, founded on correct and defined principles, and subjected
to a controul which would guarantee a strict adherence to those
principles," is once more repbated. We are at no loss to con-
ceive that those who are so anxious for the curtailment of the
power of the Bank of England with regard to their issues may
at times find the somewhat uncertain action of the Directors
inconvenient; but the Government know better, we hope,
than to pay the least attention to these anonymous and sinister
representations. Consols left off at 93, to for Money and
for Account, Exchequer Bills at 62,. to 645. premium., and
India Bonds at 655. to 665. premium. The Dutch Funds
seem to have been moved by an expectation which is enter-
tained by parties interested in them, of an arrangement being
at length about; to be concluded between the Dutch
Government and the Belgians. It has not escaped observa-
tion that the Russian, French, Prussian, Belgian, and
Spanish Ministers transacted business yesterday at the Fo-
reign Office, and the advices received this morning from
the Continent arc more communicative upon the Dutch
and Belgian affair than they have been far a very long
time past. The Handelsblad of Friday says, in noticing
some accounts received from Berlin, under date of the 11 th
instant, allusion is made to the possible settlement of the long-
pending question to which we have referred, adding that Bel-
gium must certainly be solicitous of such a consummation ;
and that whenever it shall happen that the leading Govern-
ments of Europe are occupied with the pacification of Spain,
the disputes of the Netherlands and Belgic Governments must
of necessity be brought under consideration also, in which case
a final arrangement may be calculated upon. The Luxem-
bourg question will, however, it is presumed, have in the first
instance to be settled by the German Confederation at Frank-
fort. The Amsterdam papers of the 17th instant refer parti-
cularly to this statement, the pacific demonstrations which it
contains being alleged as the cause of some purchases of stock
which had been made in that market for account of parties at
the Hague, and a consequent rise in prices. Here the quota-
tion at the close of business this afternoon was, for the Fire
per Cent. Bonds, 1031 to ; and for the Two-and-a- Half per
Cents., 54 to The former were, however, done, at one
time of the day, at 104. Active Spanish, including the un-
paid coupons, were last marked, 214 to Five per Cent. Por-
tuguese, 291- to 30 ; Three per Cent. ditto, 191 to 20 ; Co-
lumbian, 2SI- to 29 ; Mexican, 2Si- to ; Peruvian, 21 to :I;
and Brazilian, 781- to 79.

MORNING CHRONICLE. —There has been a further improve.
ment of n per cent. Consols, and affairs in the English Stock
market are altogether buoyant. The last price, both for
money and the account, was 931 to -a. Exchequer bills re-
main at 625. to 645. premium.
The shares of the Asphalte Mastic Company were intro-
duced this morning. The first quotation was 6 to 8 premium,
at which a large number of shares were disposed of in small
quantities, but there were strong buyers in the market, chiefly
on French account, we believe, which not only supported the
price, but occasioned an advance to 10 prem. The last price,
however, was 7 to 9 prem. In the other shares there was
very little going on. Birmingham, old, left off at 86 to 88
prem. ; ditto new, 261 to 274 prem. ; Southampton, 45 to
46 prem. ; ditto new, 21 to 22 prem. ; Great Western, 261 to
274 prem. ; Leeds and Manchester, 18 to 20 prem. ;
Brighton, 2,1 to :;fr per share ; Blackwall, 3 to h prem. ; Croy-
don, 11 to 1 dis. ; ditto new, 6 to 7 prem. ; Greene ich, 3 to
2 dis. ; and North Midland, 5 to 61 prem.
Dutch Securities, for the reasons shown below, were greatly
in demand to-day, and the Five per Cents. advanced to 104
to 1, and the Two-and-a-Half per Cents. 54 to ia the closing
quotation, a rise in both cases of about 11 per cent. since
yesterday. Portuguese are flat in consequence of the intelli-
gence received this morning from Lisbon, but they hare not
materially receded, for it is argued that the disturbance has
strengthened the position of the Queen, inasmuch as the club
party were defeated, and shown to the country not to be so
powerful as was generally supposed. The Five per Cents.
were last marked at 29 to 301, and the Three per Cents.
at 191 to 20. Spanish arc a little better, the Active Stock
leaving off at 21/ to il-. Deferred, at 64 to 71; and Passive,
at 47T to 51. Brazilian arc 781 to 1?-i, which is a reaction of
about per cent. from yesterday's prices. Mexican are 281-
to 99 : Peruvian, 21 to 22 ; and Colombian, 281 to 29.
Dutch securities, which have been gradually receding lately,
improved a little in the afternoon of yesterday, and underwent
this morning a more marked rise. Various causes were as-
signed for this alteratian for the better, and the true occasion
appears not to be generally known ; although it is a matter
which every person ought to bear in mind and reflect upon,
especially those who are credulous enough to place confidence
in Dutch securities, and invest their whole fortunes in them
for the mere advantage of a better income. .Whenever a fall
occurs in Dutch stock it will be remarked that as soon as
advices can be received from Holland a sudden rally takes
place, as may he instanced to-day. It is always brought
about by the effort of a powerful individual in Holland, one of
the cleverest men in the world, perhaps, who shrewdly knows
that if once Dutch securities fall into discredit in this country, a
tremendous depression would be inevitable, and therefore makes
it a point to watch the proceedings of the London market, and
to support it when occasion may require. This is the true
state of things ; and if any one will pay attention to passing
events the correctness of this assertion will soon show itself. We
have repeated put the public on their guard on this subject,
to the great annoyance and anger, we arc aware, of many
persons who are interested in keeping up the delusion ; but it
is our province to do so, and we do not hesitate to fulfil our
. duty, f.-a- we are perfectly convinced that sooner or later, when
it is t late, perhaps, the publii! will find out that the whole
sptem is a perfect delusion. What would be the state of

Dutch finances if anything were to happen to that individual
who cleverly keeps everything together in Holland? The
simple circumstance, however, of no Dutchman holding the
securities of his own country, and preferring to invest his
money in British and other securities, by which lie receives
two per cent. less than in Dutch Stock, ought of itself to
open the eyes of every body. It has been currently reported
to-day, as the cause of the rise, that no loan will be requieed
for Holland, but this is absurd. The King f Holland is
too clear sighted a man to ask for a money grant without
being fully convinced of the necessity of doing so. The
fact of The matter is, that the Chambers have thrown out
the proposal'for the loan of 30,000,000 guilders by a majo-
rity of 16. a most unexpected blow, no doubt, to the pro-
jects of the King. It ?it very well, therefore, to say now that
no loan is required wheilit cannot be obtained. What is to be
done next, or how the dividend of about 600,000/. now due
upon. the Belgic part of the foreign debt of Holland is to be
paid, we are much at a loss to comprehend, for it is next to im-
possible that any new taxes can b 3 levied on that country,
where the means of the people are described as almost ex-
hausted, and pauperism spreading with a rapidity which is
scarcely surpassed in Ireland itself. The choice will now be, we
should think, between paying the foreign dividends or dis-
banding the army, submitting to the final settlement of the
Belgic question, and doing, in short, everything which is gall
and wormwood to the King. It is scarcely necessary to con-
clude that King William of Holland will prefer his own pre-
servation to the interest of foreigners. Holland having been
once a bankrupt before, on finding that no more money can
he obtained by pretending to keep up the dividends, he will
have but very little hesitation in leaving the foreign bond-
holders to their fate. Every exertion, no doubt, will be
made to maintain the credit of the country, but the period
appears to be fast advancing when it will be found impossible,;
to do so. We, however, have done our duty :we have
called attention to and cautioned the public on this point, and t
if that inevitable event comes upon them like a clap of
thunder, they will only have to blame their own incredulity.
The advices from Canton, which are to the 10th of De-
cember, mention that the authorities there still persisted in
refusing to hold any communication with the British agent,
which had necessarily occasioned a dulness in business. The
opium trade at Canton was quite suSpended, hut ens carried
on to a limited extent on the coast. Five vessels, laden with
teas to the extent of 10,000,0001b5., were on the eve of sail-
ing for England, but the prices at which th cy were shipped
were high.
A most material error of print occurred in this article of
yesterday, but one which must have been obvious to every-
body. Instead of " 150/.," it ought to have been " 150,0001.,"...
when speaking of the amount to which the liabilities of one of
the suspended American firms had been reduced.

MORNING HERALD.—It is now Well understood amongst
our monetary circles that the Bank have resolved to depart
from the usual practice of banking associations, and to become
merchants in every sense of the word, by dealing in bullion,
foreign bills, and, if it should so suit, foreign produce. Time
alone will resolve whether this departure from the strict rules
of banking practice and custom—this movement towards
making that would-13/ national monetary establishment a
national and foreign moot de picte, will benefit either the
corporatio❑ or the mercantile community at large.
It appears, however, that they have determined to remit
bullion to the extent of one million to Mr. Cowell at New
York, the shipment of a part of which has been already ar-
ranged, with a view to its being employed by their agent in the
purchase of bills, &c. It is also calculated that private mer-
chants will export bullion to nearly the same extent ; so that
in the course of a very short period it may be calculated that
two millions of bullion will leave this country.
This operation has had no immediate effect either in the
commercial Money Market or on the Stock Exchange ; it is,
however anticipated that if commerce by this means receives
any stimulus, the effect of this sudden abstraction of bullion
will be seriously felt about two months hence, when, probably,
the Bank will again put the screw on the Money Market, by
restricting their issues.
The exchanges with Holland and the Hans Towns have not
much altered from the quotations of the last post day, but on
Paris they are rather higher. On Amsterdam they rule at 1
41 a 12 5, on Rotterdam the same; on Hainburg 13 13i a 13
131,-, and on Paris at 25fr. 87 c. to 25fr. 9‘);12-c.
A rumour has obtained to-Clay, on the authority of a Berlin
paper, which professes to have had information from the
Hague, that the dispute between Belgium and Holland is
again about to be reconsidered, and this, coupled with the
statements in the Dutch advices, that the Minister of Finance
had determined to withdraw his project for the new lean, has
had the effect of improving the Dutch Stocks in this market,
as well as at Amsterdam.

A somewhat novel mode of performing the marriage
ceremony has taken place not a hundred miles from Curloss.
A knight of the plane having fairly overstept the bounds of
the Temperance Society on Sunday night last, took it into his
head to pay a visit to the servant lasses of a gallant officer,
after having been prohibited on pain of death to make the smallest
trespass on the gallant gentleman's property. The inmates
of the household being all in bed before he reached
the place, the object of his desire had to give him
admittance before getting fully dressed, and, havin got only
a few paces along the passage, was accosted by the' Captain
habited in his dressing-gown with a sword in his hand, who
irstantly demanded of the young man the purport of his 1111 P,
sion, and was answered as hurriedly as possible, that it was 'nis
servant maid he was in quest of, when the worthy justice
put the question to both parties if they were willing to take
each other in the bands of wedlock, was answered in the affir-
mative, when he instantly called from their slumbers others or
his establishment to be witnesses, who got as short a time to
obtain marriage dresses as did the trembling bride. The Gal-
lant Captain immediately went through the marriage cere-
mony, still holding in his hand the fearful weapon, and having
finished his oration returned his sword to the scabbard, and
sent all the parties to bed.

CRUELTY TO ANIMALS.-During the last few
days the following cases have been prosecuted by Mr.
Thomas, the Secretary to the " Society for the Prevention
of Cruelty to Animals," at Exeter-hall, at the various Police-
offices : Union-hull, James Westley was convicted of cruelty
in ill-treating a donkey in the Dover-road, by beating it with
a thick stick over the head : fined los. and costs, by Mr.
Jeremy. James Green was also convicted of cruelty, in
kicking a horse in the Borough-road several times in the
belly, in a very violent and wanton manner ; fined 10s. and
costs by Mr. Jeremy. Guildhall--James Perryman,. the
driver of Miller's Pimlico omnibus 364, was convicted of
cruelty, in ill-treating his horses in Fleet-street, and fined
40s. and costs by Alderman White. Henry Dring, the driver
of the London Conveyance Company's omnibus 140, was
convicted of cruelty, in ill-treating his horses in Newgate-
street, and fined 10s. and costs by Alderman Farebrother.
Henry Holland, the driver of omnibus 3,263, was also con-
victed of cruelty, in ill-treating his horses in Cheapside, and
fined ss. and costs. Bow-street—James Perryman, the driver
of the Pimlico omnibus 364, was convicted upon a second
charge, for cruelty and ill-treating his horses in the Strand,
and fined 20s. and costs by Mr. Twyford. The R bore cases
were proved by the Society's constables, Rogerson and
Piper, and other witnesses; in most of them the defendants
paid the penalties and were discharged.
Ott Friday last, the Essex Stag Hounds had one of
their most brilliant runs, which was sufficient to try the mettle
of man and horse ; a fine deer, " Sir Jacob" was enlarged
near Good Easter, before a field of determined ones; stood
away beyond High Easter, turned to the ri.ght, and was a few
seconds in view, when the pace became awful ; to the left of
Good Easter, turned short of Skreens Wood to the water, at
Whaples Mill, without the slightest check, where he was
amongst the hounds, when the softer ones took tills opportu-
nity of prudently retiring. Went away again to the left of
Beauchamp Reding to High Laver, along the meadows of
Norton Brook, turned short of Hazel Wood 'Common, and
was taken close to North Weald Hall, wherc the choice few
who lived to the end, were most hospitably entertained. The
ground rode light, or the distance, which could scarcely be
less than nineteen miles, could not have been run in one hour
and a half ; arid perhaps few ever before saw bounds keep so
well together, at such a killing pace,
PERJURY.—On Saturday last Ball and Thornton
Were each sentenced to twelve months' hard labour, for wilful
perjury .at Nottingham, in bringing fraudulent. informations
against a van-owner of Sutton-in-Ashfield, and Robt. Smith,
beerhouse-keeper, Carlton. Our space'will not allow us to
detail the particulars, but we can assure our readers that the
Loughborough Magistrates have not only repeatedly convicted
on the evidence of these infamous hirelings, when they were
proved to be guilty of perjury by much clearer e'. idence than
was adduced on Saturday, but given theta writtl n characters
—and yet these 'Magistrates are still allowed t o grace the
Bench.—Leicester Mercury.
