In support of this r.:ntarge, the mate of the ship was called.
Mr. CLARKS ;N dismissed the summons, and could not,
under the c_ccumstances, order the wages to be paid.
Yesf:-,rday Mr. George Morley, the landiord of the Lord

Robert Air, the landlord of the Turk's Head, Wapping,
appeared to answer informations filed against them by Aaron
Rawlings, the notorious common informer, for having, as
was alleged, kept their houses open, and served beer and
liquors, during the hours of divine service, on Sunday th 6
16th instant.
Mr. BALLANTINE ordered the case to stand over for a
short time, while -the informer was sought taers 'but he
could not be found, and Rawlings having been called three
times, and not answering, the cases were (14'ismissed.

The informer's witnesses, Were Stringle and Brookes, two
other informers, who swore positively to the several defect-

after the prohibited hours. .
Mr. Pelham, the attorney for the beer-shop-keepers,
tailed witnesses, respectable tradesmen, mechanics, and
others, who swop positively that the houses were closed at
the proper hours, that no beer or ale was afterwards sup-
plied, and that no such circumstances as those deposed to
by the informers had taken place.
Mr. BALLANTINE and Mr. BRODERIP dismissed the in-
formations, and said it was a shocking state of things to hear
such very conflicting evidence, and they wished the Legisla-

ITALY.

ROME, OCT. G.—We learn, by letters from Naples, that
inflammatory proclamations have been introduced by way of
Malta into Calabria and Sicily. The people are invited to
rise, by the promise of a free Constitution, and are called
on to take up arms. These proclamations are said to
bear the signature of an illustrious personage, whose name
is employed by the contrivers of the plot, who, we may be-
lieve, abuse his means to deceive the people. It is certain
that this illustrious personage has not authorised this abuse
of his name. These attempts, however, have failed. The
people have received very coolly these brands of discord ;
only some hot-headed persons have been thrown into prison.
—Augsburg Gazette.
A letter from Geneva, dated the 18th of October, ad-
dressed to us by our correspondent, contains the following
ptstscript :—" Advices from Florence state that a revolu-
tion has taken place in Palermo, and that the Prince of
Capua has been proclaimed King of Sicily."—Gazette de
France.
The Italian correspondence of the Augsburg Gazette,
dated Rome, the 6th instant, contains some particulars cal-
culated to confirm the above report. Our private letters
from Rome, of the Bth instant, are to the following effect :
" The utmost consternation prevails in the kingdom of
Naples. The cholera, which has actually appeared in se-
veral parts, in spite of the absurd precautions resorted to,
does more injury by the inordinate fear it excites than the
malady itself. Everybody flies or attempts to fly ; the au-
thorities generally desert their posts, and the populace
utters threats of plunder and death. The King had re-
solved on braving the epidemy ; but his household evince
more boasting- than real courage, and at the moment I
am writing to you, I understand the whole Court is on
the point of sailing for Sicily, the letters received on the
6th from Naples announcing that vessels were preparing
for the purpose.
" Several bands of robbers i:ave made their appearance
of late on our frontiers, which are said to be commanded
by a chief of the name of Cavagnoia, who has his haunt
on the Neapolitan territory. He lately made an incursion
into the Papal States, and put two villages under contribu-
tion. It will be necessary to march troops against those
banditti."—Le &Me.
The Sardinian troops, who were marching towards Savoy,
have not yet crossed Mount Cenis. It is very possible
they have received counter orders, as they were intended
to co-operate in the blockade of Switzerland, since France
appears to have reserved to herself all the honour of the
measure. The Piedmontese authorities have until now con-
fined themselves to vex the Swiss travellers who come to
Savoy for their affairs, or merely to visit our mountains.
They exact from them, for instance, four francs at the en-
trance of each of our provincial chief towns for the legali-
zation of their passports. The bathers of Aix had to pay
that tax like the others.—Congtllutionne/.
London, England, 1836-10-25

exactly see ; nor is it evident that, though one part of the
banker's office might be well enough performed,
namely, the collection of capital, the other—the bene-
ficial distribution of it—could be effected, if bankers were
obliged to keep unemployed a capital of their own, equal
to that belonging to their customers which they distri-
bute. Why, in such a case, receive deposits at all ?
Why should not the bank set to work with its own
paid up capital at once, instead of resorting to the clumsy
and round-about contrivance of employing the capital of
others while its own is lying idle ?
There can be no doubt that there is a dangerous
propensity in all banks to -overtrade ; but why should

the publicity of accounts which Mr. CLAY considers,
and justly considers, as so powerful a check on banks
of limited liability, fail to operate with equal force on
those of unlimited liability ? We can sec no reason
why it should not. And as to the extensive credit
which banks of the latter description would possess, we
cannot help thinking that such credit would always be
in proportion to the known respectability of the part-
ners, and would not depend upon the mere circumstance
of these partners being liable to the extent of their whole
means for the engagements of the bank. If the names
of the partners in a joint stock bank, when laid be-
fore the public, should be such as to impress the
public mind with a high opinion of the wealth of

the concern, will any one contend that there is not
greater security in the unlimited than in the limited re-
sponsibility of such partners ? Nor can it in our opi-
nion be denied that a bank so constituted may, in its
monetary transactions, safely go beyond the resources
which it may have available at a moment's notice.

(THIS DAY.)

ST. MICHAEL, BASSISHAW.-.REEORM CLUB.

On Mr. Kemble's name being called over as Secretary
to the " Reform Club," he was objected to by Mr. Good-
eve on the part of the Conservatives, on the ground of his
being only a servant of the Club, and not the owner of the
premises.

It was stated that Mr. Kemble's name was on the side
of the door.

Mr. Goodeve submitted that that was not sufficient to
show that he paid the rent ; theAct' expressly said that he
must either be" a tenant or owner." He (Mr. Goodeve)
begged to inform the Court that his partner, Mr. Row-
croft, was objected to by the other side—(Laughter)=--and

AFRICA.

A vessel arriving from Alexandria, Tripoli, and Tunis,
announces that the Prince de Joinville was expected in the
first of those cities, and that two Egyptian ships of the line
were to go out and meet the frigate the young Prince is on
board of. The Iphigenia was then cruising on the coast of
Syria with an English frigate.
Several officers sent by the Sultan had arrived in Tripoli.
They were the bearers of an order for Namik Pasha to re-

three Turkish armed vessels.
The Tunisians are greatly exasperated against the Bey of
Constantine, and in anxious expectation for the French ex-
pedition to march against him. All Achmets schemes and
intrigues have been defeated, and several of his agents ex-
pelled from the territory of the Regency. It was reported
at La Golette that his means of defence wore considerably re-
duced, and that a great defection had taken place in his
army.—Courrier Francais.

Pancras. After the paußeiQ.Kul becAl us received hr
St. Pancras, one of those scenes- of profligacy which is
but tco common in Poor Law administration, developed
the following facts :—That the woman calling herself
ARABELLA PENN is not so ; that she is a married
woman, ARABEI,LA VINCE, and by the hiring and
service in St. Pancras did not, in consequence of her
being a married woman, • a settlement. The
fraud through the deliberate perjury of this woman
(without saying any thing about the Magistrates who
signed the order. of removal) being discovered, St.
Pancras resolved to appeal against it. The Magis-
trates of Middlesex, six to two, decided against hearing
St. Pancras, and intimated that the course St. Pancras
should adopt, should be to apply for a mandamus to
compel the Magistrates to hear the appeal : a course
involving expense upon that parish, but on a point in-
volving also such important consequences, we feel quite
assured they will adopt. It will also determine an-
other point connected with the 79th clause, viz., does
a parish lose their right of appeal if not made during
the 21 days ?—because if so, the sooner it be so deter-
mined by the. KING'S Judges the better, as the mon-
strous injustice of such a law would be so apparent,
and the expense it would entail upon the parishes, by
compelling an officer to travel to any part of England
or Wales, on every order of removal signed by the
Justices, would be ruinous. We would only remark,
in conclusion, that the whole affair, as it relates to the
pauper, is a scene of • perjury and profligacy, entailing
an enormous charge upon the fund raised from the in-
dustry of the country for the relief of the poor, and is
well deserving the attention of the Legislature.

CHANCERY COURT.-(THIS DAY).

IN THE MATTER OF CAMPBELL, AN ALLEGED LUNATIC.

The petition in this case was presented for the purpose
of obtaining a writ de lunatic° inquirendo, to inquire into
the state of mind of Mr. Campbell, a gentleman connected
with extensive mercantile concerns in Liverpool and Man-
chester. An application was made in this case yesterday,
for the purpose of obtaining the order of the Court that me-
dical men should visit the supposed lunatic, who was stated
then to be in London. On the suggestion of Sir William
Horne, the case was ordered to stand over till this morn-
ing. At the sitting of the Court Sir William Borne stated
that he had an affidavit by the solicitor of the alleged
lunatic, in which be stated that Mr. Campbell was not in
London, and that he could not ascertain to what part he
had gone.
Mr. WIG':Alt, on behalf of the petition fora commission,
observed that his client felt no doubt that Mr. Campbell
had removed to some short distance from London, for the
purpose of preventing his being seen by any medical man.
The Loan CHANCELLOR thought it was apparent that
such was the case, and directed that Dr. Southey should
visit the supposed lunatic, and that the service of the order
for such visit on Mr. Campbell's solicitor should be good
service.

JOINT STOCK BANKS.

TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN.
essed
Sir,—The following is the copy of a letter I addr
resume, its
to the Editor of the Times newspaper ; but I p
sentiments not meeting his approbation, he does not think
it would be consistent with " common fairness" to insert it
in his FAIR-PLAY JOURNAL.
May I request the favour of your giving it a, place in
your's. I am, Sir, your obedient servant,
S.

Dec. 16, 1836.

TO THE EDITOR OF THE TIMES.
Sir,—Observing in your Money articles constant and in-
discriminate attacks upon the Joint Stock Banks of the
country, I beg leave to submit the following queries, facts,
and observations to you, and those who think with you :
Did you ever know an instance of the public losing one
penny ultimately by the stoppage of a Joint Stock Bank, in
ENGLAND, SCOTLAND, Or IRELAND ?
Expecting that you can only give a negative answer to
the above—
Do you think, that if such a fact were generally known,
and that Joint Stock Batiks were more extensively estab-
lished in England than they yet arc, such a state of matters
would, in times of scarcity of money, have the effect of pre-
venting panics, or at least very much allaying them ?
I do not expect that you, or any candid individual, can
answer otherwise than in the affirmative to this query.
Now, Sir, with regard to the alleged over-circulation of
the Joint Stock Banks.
I beg to state that that circulation is not nearly so great
in proportion to paid-up capital, as the circulation of the
Bank of England.
By Parliamentary returns, the paid-up capital of the
Country Joint Stock Banks amounts to upwards of
6,000,00 W. ; while their circulation, by the latest returns,
did not amount to 4,000,0001. The Bank of England, on
the contrary, with a capital of 11,000,0001., has a circula-
tion of nearly 18,000,000/. ; and I maintain, that the secu-
rity of the notes of the other Joint Stock Banks to the
public is, f possible, more ample than that which the notes
of the Bank of England afford ; for the whole fortunes of
their respective shareholders are liable for the engagements
of these Joint Stock Banks, while the stockholders of the
Bank of England are only liable for the amount of the stock
they severally hold.
I maintain further that the Directors of the Bank of
England are the principal parties in bringing about this
monetary panic ; for they not only discounted a long time
very freely in London at a low rate of discount, but they
have been, and still are, in the practice of furnishing various
Country Joint Stock Banks with money, at a still lower
rate of interest (believed 3, per cent.) ; thereby creating
such a competition and rivalry amongst the Country Banks,
as caused some of them to overstep the bounds of prudence,
which, but for such competition being foste •ed by the Bank
of England, might not have been the case ; 'at any rate, cer-
tainly not to the same extent.
I beg further to submit to your consideration and that of
your readers, whether? supposing no Joint Stock banks had

INSOLVENT DEBTORS' COURT, DEc. 16.
Mr. CooKE applied on the part of the assignees in this
matter for the assistance of the Court under peculiar cir-
cumstances. The insolvent, who had carried on business
at Wisbeach, was heard at Cambridge, on the last circuit,
before Mr. Commissioner Bowen, and. remanded for a pe-
riod of six months. He had seventy-six pounds due to him
from a house in Bowery, New York, and the creditors
suspected that that sum would be remitted to him be-
fore the assignees could aprrise the firm of his insol-
vency ; they, therefore, appr.ed to the Postmaster-Gene-
neral for leave to inspect the letters that might arrive,
addressed to him from America, and also to Lord John
Russell, but had not obtained permission. It had, howe-
ver, within the last 'few days been ascertained that a letter
had arrived at ';s/isheach from New York, by the way of
Liverpool, for which double postage was paid. That letter,
which the; assignees believed contained a remittance, was
delivered to the insolvent's wife, he having written to Mr.
Gower., the Postmaster at that place, requesting him not
to driiver any letters addressed to him, except to his wife ;
aura the letter in question had been delivered to her, as
commanded. The object of the parties was to obtain pos-
session of the letter, and its contents, and therefore prayed
that the insolvent, might be brought up for further exami-
nation.

Mr. Commissioner BOWEN said there was a difficulty in
the case, the Act giving the Court the power of granting a
further examination did not provide for the case of an in-
solvent in custody ; besides, the proper place fbr examina-
tion was where the hearing took place, and a circuit would
not be held at Wisbeach until molly four months.
Mr. COOKE thought the examination should take place im-
mediately, as they wanted to obtain possession of the con-
tents of the letter.

The Learned CHIEF COMMISSIONER suggested that, as
the time of remand would expire about the time the Cir-
cuit would be held at Wisbeach, the insolvent had better
attend for examination there.
Mr. Commissioner BowEN observed that the case was
a bad one, bud. as money had been paid into Court, lie
had limited the remand to six months, under the discre-
tionary OLP:use. There could be no doubt that delay, for
the obje'at of the creditors, was dangerous.
Tire Court granted a rule nisi on the insolvent, to show
enure why he should not be further examined before a Com-
r.:issioner on Circuit, unless he delivered up two letters, and
their contents, which he had received from New York.

KING'S BENCH.-(THIS DAY.)

(Sittings at Nisi Prius, before Lord DENMAN and a
Special Jury.)
BLACKSLEY V. SAINSBURY.

Sir W. FOLLETT said this was an action for libel,
brought by Mr. Frederick Blacksley, a gentleman of great
respectability, now filling the office of Managing Director
of the South Metropolitan Gas-light and Coke Company,
against Mr. John Sainsbury, one of the shareholders of
that Company. The action was brought in consequence
of a letter, written by the defendant, in which some per-
sonal reflections were made upon the character of the
plaintiff, and the only object of Mr. Blacksley was to vin-
dicate himself from that imputation. As the plaintiff had
no other object whatever in bringing the action he (Sir W.
Follett) expected, from what had passed between his
Learned Friend, Sir Frederick Pollock, and himself, that
that object would be attained without troubling the Jury
with a trial.
Sir F. PoLLocx, on the part of Mr. Sainsbury, would
respond to the sort of call that had been made on him by
his Learned Friend. He felt much satisfaction in assuring
the Jury that it would not be necessary to trouble them
with the case. Mr. Sainsbury had certainly heard some
reports, and bad thought it his duty to make a Communi-
cation on the subject of these reports, but he now disavowed
any personal imputation upon Mr. Blacksley, who, he un-
derstood, had no personal knowledge of the transaction to
which the letter alluded, and he believed that so far as they
reflected upon Mr. Blaeksley's honour as a gentleman and
a member of that body, they were without foundation. It
was satisfactory to the parties as well as to himself, that the
case did not go off on any question of whether the letter
was a confidential communication or not, or whether the
allegations were partly true, hut by an arrangement be-
ween the parties, the defendant altogether disavowing any
personal hostility to the plaintiff with respect to the matter
complained of, and professing now his readiness to state
that the information he had received, so far as it affected
the honour of that gentleman, was without foundation.
Sir W. FOLLETT felt quite satisfied with his Learned
Friend's apology. The object of Mr. Blacksley was to
stand well with the body of which lie was the Managing
Director. Understanding that the imputation was with-
drawn, ho (Sir W. Follett) was contented that a juror
should be withdrawn and no verdict taken in the case.
Lord DENMAN was quite sure that arrangement would
be satisfactory to all parties.
There were two or three other causes on the list, which
were struck out or otherwise disposed of. The Court rose
at ten o'clock.
London, England, 1836-12-17

existed in England, the private lx,nkers would not, during
a period of such extensive' and active trading as we have
lately experienced, have gone as f'ar collectively as the Joint
Stock Banks have done ? I believe, from past experience,
they would have gone as far. If so, would the crisis not
have been Irma more momentous than it has been ?

I shall only add, that the greater number of the Joint.
Stock Banks have conducted their business with as great
prudence as any of the private bankers have done, and that,
therefore, your universal censure of all such establishments
is most unfair towards them, and certainly ill calculated to
maintain commercial confidence gene► ally.
I trust common fairness will induce you to give this letter
a place in your columns ; and I remain, Sir,

TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN.

Sir,—The Dover steam packet Duke (y Wellinaton,
laden with specie, arrived this day from Calais. She at-
tempted Dover last night, but was not able to enter that
harbour, the bar being up. She remained the whole of a
tempestuous night in the Downs, and made a second un-
successful attempt this morning to enter that port ; she
then bore up for this harbour. She brought gold to the
amount, it is said, of 150,000/. The safety of the vessel,
and its valuable freight, appear to be somewhat unnecessa7
Lily risked, to keep up the illusion that no obstruction exists
at the entrance of Dover harbour.
Also arrived the Royal George, another Dover steam
packet, from Boulogne, with carriages and horses. The
passengers bad been landed in boats off Dover, according
to the usual practice.—l am, Sir, your obedient servant,

HAPPINESS, " the gay to-morrow of the mind,"
is insured by marriage. Previous, however, to entering
into the hallowed obligation of marriage, it becomes an impressive duty
not only to regulate the passions, but to cleanse the grosser nature from
those impurities which the freedom of unrestricted pleasure May-have
entailed upon it. Luxurious habits will effeminize the body—a residence
in the tropics will relax the elastic fibre—but more especially does the
premature infatuation of youth too frequently compromise the natural
dignity into a state of inanition, from whence the agonized sufferer more
than doubts the chance of relief. To all such, then, we address ourselves,
offering hope—energy—muscular strength—felicity. The easy cares of
married life are sometimes disturbed by the suspension of those blessings
which concentrate the nuptial wreath—for the female habit is often con-
stitutionally weak—yet it can be strengthened, and deficient energy im-
proved into functional power. In every case of syphilitic intrusion, as
well as in every relaxation of the generative economy, we pledge our abi-
lity to cure speedily, and with effect. Confident in our own honourable Tote.grity as members of the College of Surgeons, we refer the suffering com-
munity of either sex (especially those entering into matrimonial life) at
once to our house, where daily attendance is given for personal consulta-
tion , and letters from the country are immediately answered ; these must
contain a remittance for Advice and Medicine, describing minutely the
case, which can be forwardad to any part of the World, however distant.
No difficulty can occur, as the Medicine will be securely packed, and care-
