LONDON:
SATURDAY, DECEMBER 18, 1841.

The news recently arrived from America of
the probable repudiation of the State Bonds by
the State of Mississippi, naturally excites distrust
in the paper securities of all the American States.
Just, and loud complaints, are properly made
against this meditated injustice. Of course, the
Tory Journals have not neglected the opportu-
nity of sneering at Republicanism, and have al-
ready spoken of the conduct of the inhabitants of
Mississippi as a proof of how little reliance can be
placed on the decisions of popular assemblies and
on the principles of the multitude, whenever
their interest is concerned. It is hardly neces-
sary, however, to remind our readers, when
diatribes are daily poured forth on the utter want
of honesty in the Governments of Spain and Por-
tugal, that dishonesty in loan transactions is by •
no means peculiar to Republics. Indeed, it may
be safely said, as the Republic in such transactions
has come after several Monarchies, that it has
learned its dishonesty from them.
That single remark might suffice for a compa-
rative defence of the Republic ; let us, however,
add, to avoid cavils, that the Bank Restriction
Act was, in truth, a repudiation of pecuniary obli-
gations, which led to the gradual extension of the
currency, and the robbery of all creditors to the
extent of 30 per cent. Nor is there a single Go-
vernment of Europe which has not been guilty of
similar frauds. The financial history of the Mo-
narchical Government of France, from the time
of La.w, was one unbroken succession of dis-
honest financial expedients, till they were finally
crowned by the wholesale confiscation of the as-
signat system, during the Revolution. In like
manner the Governments of Austria, Prussia,
Denmark, Sweden, Russia, &c., &C., subse-
quently to the general introduction of paper
money—prior to which they continually debased
metallic coin, and so continually cheated their
creditors--seized hold of the management of
banks, or established them, and issued a spurious
paper in their own name, which was depreciated
30 per cent. "In 1810,"
in. value from 1,000 to
quote an example of a
says 31. SToncll, to
preux Monarchy, the depreciation of the forced
issue(money) in Austria, was such,
that of
a papersi
florin exchanged h.e r
for twelve or
thirteen paper florins." The most fraudulently
managed hank in the United States supplies no
instance of greater fraud than was committed by
the Government of the empire of Austria,
Moreover, when its creditors asked for payment
it repulsed them
at the point of the bayonet.
These eirculustances prove that whatever frauds
may have been committed under Republican in-
stitutions, with State Stocks and State-paper
tched by what pal
been they may be fully ma
been done under the most pure Monarchical
Governments of Europe.
Such statements, let us add, are some of the
proofs—many more of which could be adduced—
that those who possess political power, whether
in Republics or Monarchies, should not also be
intrusted with the power of issuing paper money.
In fact, that is a branch of commerce which
ought to be left, like every branch of commerce—
like growing food, or making cloth—exclusively
in the hands of private individuals. At the same
time, the publicity which all transactions re-
ceive in a Republic, necessarily prevents the

THE SUN, LON

State there from suddenly and secretly inflicting
injury on public creditors either at home or
abroad, as very frequently has been done in Mo-
narchies by the despotic decrees of their rulers.
In truth the very action we are now discussing
is a proof of the superior advantages possessed
by the Republic. When the Monarchical Go-
vernments of Spain and Portugal resolved to
postpone the payment of the interest of their
debts, and to render them nearly valueless in
the market, they did so at once by a decree, and
there was no redress. The intention to do some-
thing of the same kind in the United States is
first made known, next it becomes the subject
of discussion in the public press, and influences
the election of the members of the State Legis-
lature who will have to decide on the question;
and finally the whole proceedings in that Legis-
lature are open to investigation before the deci-
sion is come to. Thus, the parties interested
in the decision, though they live in Europe,
have an opportunity to bring the force of public
opinion to bear on the State and inhabitants of
Mississippi, and induce them to come to an
honest decision. Moreover, the whole of the
original transactions were subject to repeated
discussions, and the transgression of the Consti-
tutional law, in the course of those transactions,
on which the repudiation of the bonds is now
founded, might have been known to those who
lent their money, and should have excited their
suspicion. Nothing of the kind could be known
in despotic States, where the conditions offered
by the Governments on contracting the loan,
and the decrees repudiating them at pleasure,
are all which the plundered creditors have to
console them for their loss.

The course which the people of Mississippi, it
is said, mean to take in respect to the debt they
have already contracted, seems indefensible.
At the same time, when we see the name of
NICHOLAS BIDDLE and the United States Bank
mixed up with the transaction,—when we recol-
lect the manner in which sundry loans have been
brought out on various stock exchanges, the
contractors knowing, perhaps, as was probably
known in this case, that there was something
disingenuous in the concoction of the loan, which
they nevertheless puffed off to the skies, and
having sold all the scrip, operated to reduce its
value in the hands of their dupes,—we must say,
when we know and recollect these and similar
circumstances, that the people of several States
have come to a wise resolution not to allow the
States in future to contract any such obligations.
National and State debts, even when contracted,
as many of them have been in America, to pro-
mote internal improvement, are a heavy yoke
and bondage to all succeeding generations.

The Madrid Journals of the Bth inst. have
been received. That day being observed as a
religious festival, the House was closed. The
Madrid Gazette publishes the text of the
Decree for the dissolution of the Royal Guard,
which we omit, as the substance of it appear.
ed in The Sun of yesterday. Spain is tranquil,
except in the matter of jobbers, which the Go-
vernment will soon suppress.
The Augsburgh Gazette of the 11th has Trieste letters
of the 4th, announcing the receipt in that port of
advices from Athens up to the 27th of November.
On the 25th a general meeting of the shareholders of
the National Bank took place under the Presidency
of the Ministers of King Otho, and in the presence
of the Bishop of Attica and of the holy Synod. M. Pe-
trales, the Minister, addressed the Assembly, pointing.
out the advantages which would accrue for the pros-
perity of Greece owing to the establishment of this bank.
A provisional Board of Directors was then named, and
business was to commence on January 13, 1842, before
which period the shares were to he paid up.
Two transactions took place on the 7th in the Three
per Cents. at 22 for cash, and 231 at 60 days. The
operations in the Five per Cents., 21 in number,
amounted to 17,299,000 reals, and were done for cash at
347 and at 34H- at 60 days.

The disgracefully, or rather infamously con-
ducted trial of QUENISSET and his accomplices,
is beginning to excite considerable interest
in Paris. This arises, according to the re-
ports in the Paris Journals of Wednes-
day, frona a disgraceful incident that took
place in the Chamber of Peers on the pre-
ceding day. The evidence for the prosecution
had been over for some days; several members of
the bar had been heard in defence of one or
other of the accused. M. CREMIEUX, the cele-
brated Jewish advocao, was addressing the Court
in defence of the prisoner DurAun, when the
Procureur-General HERBERT rose and said that
he had more evidence to bring forward which he
had kept back for this stage of the trial. At this
unprecedented proceeding the French Jeffries
PASQUIER chuckled with delight, and at once al-
lowed the evidence to be brought forward. No-
thing could exceed the astonishment and indigna-
tion of the Counsel for the accused. They saw at a
glance that the Court was determined to find the
prisoners guilty. The Correspondent of the
Post, who has attended carefully to the trial,
arid particularly to the case of DUPOTY, Editor
of the Journal du Peuple, against whom the
Court is labouring to establish a charge of con-
structive treason, thus refers to the scandalous
proceedings of that tribunal :

The fate of Dupoty is a most important affair. As for
Quenisset and the ruffians associated with him in the at-
tempted assassination of the Royal Princes, they sink into
perfect insignificance, compared with the decision of the
Peers as to the editor of the Journal du Peuple. The ques-
tion of his guilt or innocence is not discussed, for it is pre-
tended that the conviction of a member of the revolu-

ionary press has become one of imperative necessity.
The Procureur-General will to-day or to-morrow, in
his summing up, consecrate all his energies to en,
sure a verdict against Dupoty, and my belief is that
he will be found guilty of the conspiracy to over-
turn the Government. Count Mole has already de-
clared for his conviction, and the immediate partisans
of the King have been most active in their exertion;
to convince the Peers of the absolute urgency of find-
ing Dupoty guilty. M. Barthe, ex-Minister of Jus-
tice, has been particularly active. Some Peer said to
Barthe, " How can you urge this affair so strenuously
—you who were implicated in so many conspiracies,
and it is known that the minutes of a proclamation
in the affair of General Berton, in your own
handwriting, are in existence ?" Barthe replied
with great sang froid, " The more fools were the
Bourbons to have left my head on my shoulders, but we,
at all events, will not make these mistakes." The we of
course applies to the existing dynasty. In short the mo-
me:it so long expected has arrived, and the war between
the press and existing Government will become one of

life and death to one or the other. This is the ruling
idea of the King, and he is supported powerfully by the
Peers. Royer Collard predicted that the Upper Chamber,
at the time when the September laws were under dis-
cussion, would become the Cour Prevotale, and it is but
the other day that a Peer exclaimed in the Council.
saloon, " This must be our Star Chamber."—Con-
seil Etoile. If Dupoty be condemned, and the ma-
jority for his conviction is declared to be certain, he
will be sentenced to at least ten years' imprison-
ment, and a very large minority will even vote for
his deportation or transportation, which is confinement,
for life in a fortress, as France has no colonies for cri-
minals. The vigour of the Government will be success-

ful, for the present race of Liberals, whether they be De-
puties or I?edacteurs, will not dare to resist the sentence.
It will be Saturday before the verdict of the Peers can
be made known, and the Government is looking for the
result with intense anxiety, as the conviction of Dupoty
will be followed by other press prosecutions.
While M. CREMIEUX was addressing the Court
on Tuesday in defence of DUFAUR, he was vio-
lently interrupted by QUENISSET. The PRE-
SIDENT was silent, but the distinguished ad-
vocate, turning round upon QUENISSET with
a look of indignation, exclaimed, Self-
convicted assassin ! Do you dare to inter-
rupt the defence of one you have denounced?"
The wretch crouched down, and even the PRE-
SIDENT looked abashed at the rebuke thus indi-
rectly given to,liim.

An unfortunate accident occurred, a few days ago, at
Diekirch, in the Grand Duchy of Luxembourg. A pub-
lic dinner was given there in celebration of the birth-day
of the King of Holland, and during the repast a warm
discussion was entered into by the guests on the proposed
adjunction of the Grand Duchy to the German Customs
Union. One of the persons present, a functionary high
in the administration of the Grand Ducal domains, be-
came so excited against a medical man, sitting next him,
that he
plunged his knife into his opponent's heart, and
killed him on the spot. He was immediately arrested.
This is the account given by the Observateur of Brussels,
but the Eche de Luxembourg gives a very different ver-
sion ; it states that it was the result of an accident in
opening a bottle of champagne.
The celebrated German sculptor, Danneker, died at
Suttgardt on the Bth inst.
A letter from Bordeaux, in the Debats, states that
the failure of the house of Balguerie and Co. will scarcely
cause a loss of 900,000 f. to that town. The writer adds :
--" The colossal house of Balguerie Stuttemberg, which
has rendered such immense services to Bordeaux and
the whole commerce of France, never, until within the
few last years, met among money-dealers any one who
was not under obligation to it. Were these men at •

liberty to refuse it ,their support, when their confidence
would have been limited to an extent, which could only 4
.in a 'minor degree have effected their fortunes, and in no
degree their credit ?"
Several Councils-General, such as those of the Vosges,
Meurthe, Moselle, Meuse, and Marne, have just been
convoked for an extraordinary Session, on the 22d inst.,
to deliberate on the construction of the Paris and Stras•
burg railroad ; that of the Yonne, on the Paris and
Lyons road; and that of Vaucluse, on the Marseilles and
Rhone line. The Council General of the Bouches du
Rhone is convoked for the 20th, to deliberate on the es-
tablishment of a School of Arts and Trades at Aix.

"M. de Salvandy," says the Moniteur Parisien,
" passed through Burgos on the lOth inst., and must
have arriVed,at Madrid on the 12th. Everywhere he has
been received with extraordinary honours. The autho-
rities have waited on him, and the people have given him
the readiest welcome."
The Moniteur publishes a Royal Ordonnance, coun-
tersigned by Marshal Souk, for maintaining Lieutenant-
General Heimes, the King's Aide-de-Camp, in the first,
or active service, section of the General Staff. •

The Municipal Council of Troyes has just voted a sum
of 500,000 francs, to be applied to thca construction of
the railway from Paris to Lyons, or from Paris to Stras-
burg, which shall pass through its territory. The Get:o-
ral Couneil of the Aube had already voted, in its session
of 1841, the SUM of a million of francs for the some pur-
pose.—Moniteur.
The indicate/A:. of Bourdeaux states that the Central
Committee of wine-growers of the Department of the
Gironde, have just had a general meeting at Bordeaux,
for the purpose of coming to resolutions as to the course
to be adopted, in concert with the Deputies of the De-
partment, to obtain from the Chambers and the Govern-
ment, a serious and extensive reform in the system of
customs and indirect taxes. The Indicateur states that
the members of the Committee and the Deputies who
were present, viz., Messrs. Roul, Wurstenburg, Ducos,
Billadel, and Galos, were unanimous as to the measures
to be adopted, and adds, that the Deputies having been
informed that the Minister of Public Works does not in-
tend to include the line from Paris to Bordeaux in the
railways which he has to propose in the approaching
session, and that the Government would wait for fresh
plans, have written to M. Teste in strong terms, re•
quiring that there should be no delay.
A letter from Agram of the 27th of November, says
" The journal of this town says, unler the head of Braila,
the 6th of this month, A Russian man-of-war passed
this town last week ; it was going to Silistria to survey
and make a topographical plan of the bed of the Danube.' "

MONEY and COMMERCIAL NEWS.
CITY, FRIDAY EVENING.
The firmness of the Stock Market continues,
although in the aggregate the transactions to-day were
not of magnitude. Consols for the Account were at.B9*
to 898, closing at 891 sellers ; Exchequer Bills were 10s.
to 12s. prem. ; and East India Bonds Is. prem. Bank
Stock was supported at 166 to 1651 ; South Sea Old An-
nuities were at 87 ; Reduced Three-and-a-Half per
Cents. brought 981 to 99i ; and the Three per Cent.
Annuities, 89+ to 891.
In the Foreign Securities the bargains were neither
numerous nor important. Active Spanish Bonds were
flat at 231 to 24 ; Portuguese New Five per Cents. at
32i ; the Three per Cents. at 191, which is a slight im-
provement ; Mexican Bonds at 261, also a partial rally;
and Dutch Two-and-a-Half per Cents., 511.
Railway Shares again bore a higher value compared to
that of the last week or so. London and Birmingham
were at 74 ; Do., Quarter, 181 ; York and North Dal-
land, 40 to 41 • North Midland Thirds, 2 ; Great
Western, 20 ; New, 10+ ; South Western, 181 prem. ;

cester, 35 ; Bristol and Exeter, 32 ; Eastern Counties,
141 ; Manchester and Leeds, 44 ; Manchester and Bir-
mingham, 101 ; Midland Counties, 15 ; and North Mid-
land at 28 dis. Provincial Bank of Ireland Shares were
17 prem. ; and National do., par. ; Australasia Bank
Shares were 13; and Colonial Bank New Shares, 2 prem.
In the Foreign Exchanges there was no important
variation this afternoon. The rates were as follows :
Amsterdam, 12 141 :41 ; Frankfort, 1491 to 150 ; Paris,
25E 72ic. to 771 c. ; Hamburgh, 13 101 to 4 ; Trieste,

(From The Sun of Last Night.)
LIVERPOOL COTTON 'MARKET, DEC. 16.—The sales
to-day are 3,000 bales, all to the trade.
MANCHESTER STOCK EXCHANGE, DEC. 16.—There
has been less inclination for business to-day, but without
any material alteration in prices. Our quotations are as
follows:—London and Birmingham new 321. Shares, 251;
Manchester and Liverpool District Bank, 10 ; Manches-
ter and Leeds, 64 to 66 ; ditto, Half Shares, 27 to 27* ;
Manchester and Birmingham, 28 to 281.
The steam-ship Caledonia has arrived at Liverpool
from Boston and Halifax. The papers from New York
reach to the Ist, and Boston 2d instant.
The New York Commercial Advertiser of the 30th ult.
contains the following :—" Sales of State Securities to a
considerable amount were made to-day. In other de-
scriptions of stock the transactions have not been large.
" THE CURRENT MONE Y.—There is a little better feel-
ing in the street we think to-day than there was yester-
day. The brokers are now purchasing all of the safety
fund notes, except those of institutions previously an-
nounced as having failed. The rate to-day for New
York State Money not redeemed at special rates in this
city is 1 per cent. dis. Exchange—There is but little
doing in bills on London, the quotation is still 91 10
per cent. premium."
The English Stock' Market continues firm, Consols
being still quoted at 891 1 for the Account. Three per
Cents. reduced are 89+ ; Exchequer Bills, 10 12 prem.
Spanish Active Stock is now quoted at 231 24 ; Por-
tuguese Fives, 321 33 ; Do. Threes, 191 20. Very little
business doing.
There has been but little business doing in the Stock
Exchange ; and with the exception of a further advance
in Consols at 8 per cent. there is no alteration to notice.
Consols are now 891 1 for the Account ; Three per
Cents. Reduced, 891 1 ; Three-and-a-Half ditto, 99/ ;
Exchequer Bills, 10 12 prem.
Spanish Active Stock, 23/ 24 ; Mexican Bonds, 261 ;
Dutch Two•and-a-Half per Cents., 511 52; Ditto, Fives,
991 1
There has been a fair business doing in the Share
Market, and prices have improved. Great Western are
85 ; Birmingham and Gloucester, 65 ; Great Western
Fifths, 91i ; Loudon and Brighton, 381 ; Manchester
and Leeds, 651 ; North Midland, 74; South Eastern and
Dover, 191.
Consols, Account, 891 1 ; Mexican, 26+ 1 ; Spanish,
231 to 24/.
The further accounts received to-day from
New York do not add much to the effect
of the previous advices. Trading afttirs in Ame-
rica are thought to wear rather a favourable
appearance, and parties here would be heartily glad to
find the whole matter of State securities decided at once,
by some action on the part of President Tyler, if indeed
he has the power of controlling the dishonest States.
