LONDON, FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 12, 185 G.

There seems to be no reasonable prospect of
any amicable arrangement of the difficulty be-
tween the Senate and House of Representatives
at Washington. We rejoice to say that the
"Free Soilers" remain steadfast in their resolu-
tion, and that there has not been a single deserter
from their ranks. The lectures of FRANKLIN
PIERCE and the gloomy vaticinations of General
CASs have proved equally unavailing in producing
any change of sentiment. A conference had been
held between the Houses, but, no conclusion hav-
ing been arrived at, the committee for conducting
it had dissolved. The greatest praise is due to
the firm and unbending resolution displayed by
the Northern representatives. They have proved
that they can neither be bullied n)r cajoled in
any deviation from the course which in their
souls and consciences they believe to be correct.
All honour then to the patriot band. The names
of its members will long live in history, as of
those who have nobly earned the thanks and gra-
titude of their country, and who have rendered
important services to the cause of suffering
humanity. As we have already stated they are
not the aggressors. They did not even seek to
disturb the existing arrangements, however
strongly they might object to the " domestic
institution" and all its accompanying abomina-
tions. They sought protection for themselves
from the atrocious system, and clearly fore-
seeing that the partiality of the Execu-
tive would afflrd a triumph to tho pro-
slavery party, from the consequences whereof
they might never be able to extricate themselves,
they taoked the just and necessary rider to the
Army Appropriation Bill.

The Southerns display equal activity. Having
"cornered" their opponents, they clearly perceive
that the contest has assumed a new aspect, and
that they must either triumph, or behold their
highly-prized privileges of holding their fellow-
men in bondage, and violating all natural [ties
must be finally and for ever abandoned. Like
the great Northern serf-owners, they greatly
regret the aggression which they ventured, but
are urged on by an avenging TT
-.EMESIS, that will
eventually bring bitter retribution on their de-
voted heads. There is, therefore, no symptom of
yielding by the President or the Senate. They
mutually strive to cast the responsibility on the
Representatives, forgetting that it was the

Offices, Unity Buildings, 10, Cannon-street, City,
London, Sept. 11, 1856.
TO the Shareholders of the Unity Bank.
Lama AND GENTLEafnx,—Having many enquiries respect-
ing oar Branches, permit rae to place before you our views and in-
tentions—
. 1. That the amount invested in Branches shall never exceed one-
fifth of the paid-up capital of the Bank.
2. That every Branch that does not pay shall be closed.
• 3. That about one year's trial shall decide the fate of each Branch,
although the first few months will generally indicate the pro-
bable result.
It may be interesting to you to know that our Leicester-square
Branch already nearly pays its expenses; those at Hertford, Ware,
And St. Albans promise well. The Watford Branch will probably
only pay for one day per week. The Brighton Branch, although in-
complete, and opened during the panic, commenced favourably. We
shall follow the example of the Bank of England, which closed some,
but retained many of its Branches.
It is the opinion of our first Banking authorities, that Branches
are legitimate and profitable if well managed and effectively super-
vised.
The rapid extension of our city is taking the population far away
from the old Banks, and there is a great taxing of shopkeepers in the
operation of cheque and money-changing. With regard to the future
capital of the bank, although you have so liberally authorised us
to raise the capital to two millions, it is our intention to proceed
very gradually, according to circumstances, probably adding
10.0004 annually, or as much as can be profitably. availed of, but,
as I told you verbally, no increase of capital will be attempted until
the price of our shares in the market evidences a healthy and pros-
perous condition of our Bank.
We purpose letting off nearly the whole of the upper part of our
magnificent premises to some public companies, so as to diminish
our rental to the lowest convenient point.
I think that I may safely congratulate you on your future pros-
pects. I have devoted nearly my whole time, since the opening, to
your Bank Parlour, and I shall continue to do so until I find our
ship resting in smooth water.
I am,

Ladies and Gentlemen,

"The Noctes' are a valuable contribution to our literature. They-
are the effusions of a powerful mind—wide and various in theft
subject, embracing the current topics of their time, awl throwing
no small light on its history. They give the impression, in a de-
gree rarely equalled, of being written out of the author's fulness,
fliwing spontaneously and without effort, and bringing the reader
into intercourse, not with a literateur but with a man, while yet
they are constructed with an admirable dramatic skill in the embo •
diment and discrimination of the perms who take part in them.
They beam with wit and humour, with vigorous manly sense, with
poetry and eloquence, with et iticlim at once bread and delicate."—

It may be interesting to you to know that our Leicester•equare
Branch already nearly pays its expenses; those at Hertford, Ware,
and St. Albans promise well. The Watford Branch will probably
only pay for one day per week. The Brighton Branch, although in-
complete, and opened during the panic, commenced favourably. We
shall follow the example of the Bank Of England, which closed some,
but retained many of its Branches.
It is the opinion of our first Banking authorities, that Branches
are legitimate and profitable if well managed and effectively super-
vised.
The rapid extension of our city is taking the population far away
from the old Banks, and there is a great taxing of shopkeepers in the
operation of cheque and money-changing. With regard to the future
capital of the bank, although you have so liberally authorised us
is raise the capital to two millions, it is our intention to proceed
very gradually, according to circumstances, probably adding
10,0001. annually, or as much as can be profitably availed of, but,
as I told you verbally, no increase of capital will be attempted until
the price of our shares in the market evidences a healthy and pros-
perous condition of our Rant.
We purpose letting off nearly the whole of the upper part of our
magnificent premises to some public companies, so as to diminish
our rental to the lowest convenient point.
I think that I may safely congratulate you on your futnre pros-
pects. I have devoted nearly my whole time, since the opening, to
your Bank Parlour, and I shall continue to do so until I find our
ship resting in smooth water.

I am,

Ladies and Gentlemen,
Very faithfully yours,
J. J. MECHI,
Governor of the Unity Bank.

MARLBOROUGH STREET.

IMPUDENT ROBBERT.—James Butler was brought
before Mr. Bingham, charged with stealing a coat, the
property of Mr. W. Adams, tailor, No. 7, Piccadilly.
It appeared from the evidence of police constable
311 A that yesterday afternoon he was on duty in
Regent•circus, near the prosecutor's shop, when he saw
the prisoner go inside the passage of the shop, and re-
move from an iron rod the coat produced, which he put
under his arm and walked off. Witness followed him
and took him into custody.

William Ridgway, foreman to the proprietor, identifi.
fled the coat as his master's property.
The prisoner, who did not attempt to deny the charge,
was committed for three months, with hard labour.

A. BLACK ASSAULT.—.Tohn Mackinnon, a tra.v.elling
tinker, and Mary Mackinnon, his wife, were brought
up on the following charge.

William Watson, of No. 8, Peter's•hill, Doctors'.
commons, stated that on the previous night he was in
Regent-street, when his attention was called to the pri-
soners, who appeared to be in liqour, and who were
pushing indiscriminately up against the passengers in
the street. The woman, who had a black sooty sauce-
Pan in her hand, attacked and struck several ladies with
it, and blackened their shawls and dresses. The ladies
became alarmed and ran away, and in order to prevent
prisoners from committing further mischief he undertook
to give the prisoners into custody.
The prisoners, who pleaded drunkenness as an excuse,
were each of them committed for seven days to the
House of Correction.

METROPOLITAN CATTLE MARKET.

The show of beasts in to-day's market was by no means
extensive, yet the demand for all kinds ruled rather heavy,
at a decline in the quotations realised on Monday of 2d
per 81bs. Although we were rather scantily sapplied with
sheep, the mutton trade was very inactive, and prices gave
way 2d per 81bs. Lambs are now out of season. There
was a full average number of calves on offer, and the veal
trade ruled heavy at 2d per 81bs less money. Pigs wero
steady at late rates.

Milch cows moved off slowly at from 11/ to 191 each, in-
cluding their small calf.

BOROUGH HOP.

About 1,500 pockets of new haps have arrived from
Sussex and Kent. The prices realised this week have
varied considerably, and it will be some time before they
aro settled. Some low qualities have realised very low
rates, viz., 40s to 70s per cwt. Duty, 280,0 CT. Old hops
may be had at unusually low cuirencie3.

CORN EXCHANGE.

To-day's market was but moderately supplied with all
kinds of English wheat. For most descriptions we had s►
slow inquiry; nevertheless, parties were filmier in their
demands than on Monday, and that day's prices were sup-
ported.
The imports of foreign wheat are 7,360 quarters, chiefly
from the Baltic. The amount of business doing was
limited, at the late decline in value.

- .
Fine barlsy was scarcer, and held at fall quotations.
Inferior parcels, including malt, met a you slow sale.
The show of oats was limited, and the oat trade ialpd
firm. Fine samples were rather dearer.
Beans, peas, and flour were in moderate request, at Mon•
day's quotations.

THAMES.

DESTITUTE SEAMEN.-Mr. Levy, of Ship Alley,
Wellclose-square, came before Mr. Selfe, this morning,
directly the magistrate had taken his seat, and pointing
to three foreign seamen who accompanied him, said they
were in a destitute condition.
Mr. Selfe—Under what circumstances 4

Mr. Levy—These men formed par*4 of the crew of the
American ship Glad Tidings, and shipped at New Orleans.
They arrivedin the London Dock last Friday, and on Sun.
day morning they left the ship viiith the rest of the crew.
On Monday morning the seamen returned to the ship
and the captain was not on board, nor did any officer
give them any directions. On Tuesday they saw the
captain and asked for their wages and clothes.
The captain .said he would not pay them any
wages ; but they might take their clothes away. They
asked for a written pass to enable them to take their
clothes out of the dock, and he refused to give them
one. Under these circumstances they applied to the
American Consul, who told them to return to the ship.
Yesterday (Thursday) they returned to the vessel, and
the second mate told them the captain had prohibited
them from working any more, and told them to leave
the ship. The men were now entirely destitute.
Mr. Selfe—What country do they belong to
Mr. Levy—They are Hanoverians.
Mr. Selfe was of opinion the best course for the men
to pursue was to go to the Hanoverian Consul.
Mr. Levy—They complain of being ill•used on the
voyage. They have been struck with ropes very severely,
and demanded redress.

Mr. Selfe could not give them redress for the alleged
assaults. He had no jurisdiction over offsnces com-
mitted on board American ships at sea, but he bad no
objection to grant summonses against the master of the
American ship for detaining thb seamen's chests and
effects.

Mr. Levy—The seamen are without clothes and desi
tute.

Mr. Selfe—l cannot help them. Let them see the
Hanover:an Consul. They may have summonses against
the captain for detaining their property in the London
Dock.

Mr. Levy—Will you give them summonses to recover
their wages ?

Mr. Selfe—l have no jurisdiction over contracts made
with the captains of American ships at Now Orleans.
The Merchant Shipping Act only has referrence to British
seamen in American ships.

DITLLLN, TITESIA.Y MORNING.

THE LIINACY COMMISSION.
It will no doubt afford infinite satisfaction to
, Irish patriots (on paper) and denouncers of Govern-
ment jobs generally that the labours of the Lunacy
Commission just appointed are expected to be
brought to a close within the ensuing six months.
The virtuous indignation, therefore, which has
been excited against the appointment of Sir Thos.
Redington as chairman and Mr. H. J. Barry as
secretary (paid, too), has been so much needless
waste of powder and ball in the ranks of the inde-
pendent oppositionists.

THE CRIMEAN BANQUET.
The subscriptions continue to pour in steadily,
if not rapidly. A meeting of the committee is
appointed to be held on Friday next, and if the
gross sum then received reaches to a certain fixed
figure, it is said that the day and the site of the
demonstration will be finally decided upon. As
far as can be judged, the arrangements already
made hold out a hope that the Dublin banquet will realise the most sanguine expectations of the pro-
moters and subscribers of all degrees.
TILE LATE STORM.
The papers are filled with details of the casualties
consequent upon the terrific gales of Friday and Sa-
turday. The storm appears to have been confined
to the eastern and north-eastern coasts. In Belfast
it was severely felt, and the shipping in the river
and along that coast suffered a considerable amount
of damage. At present the weather is quite calm,
but, according to the weatherwise, everything in-
dicates the advent of an unusually premature win-
ter. A letter from Drogheda, written last night,
says :

"Along the course of the Mattock river, which is a
tributary of the Boyne, and runs from westward into
that river, the farming portion of the community hare
suffered very material losses. Although throughout
Meath the far greater portion of the crops had been
gathered in, yet one farmer lost seven acres of wheat
which had been stocked in the fields, and was carried
away with the great floods which accumulated during
the late storm. Two acres of oats belonging to another
party were swept away, and more or less which bad not
been taken home to the farmsteads met with similar
casualty. The Mattock river swelled far and away be-
yond anything known before, and eventually the accu-
mulation of waters bore down upon the bridge which.
spans the Mattock at its discharge into the Boyne, broke
down the structure, and rendered the way impassable for
vehicles. The Drogheda steamers which were out dur-
ing the gale, and for the safety of which apprehensions
were felt, are all right."
London, England, 1856-10-01

THE CRYSTAL PALACE.

The Committee of the Stock Exchange yesterday,
after further deliberation upon the questions arising
out of the recent frauds in Crystal Palace shares,
adopted the following resolution :—" Resolved,
that where shares in the Crystal Palace Company
have been duly registeredand acknowledged by the
company, the committee decline to interfere." As
regards a considerable number of shares in respect
of which, although transfers have been sent in to
the company, certificates of registration have not
been issued by the company's recognised officer, we
understand that the committee have come to the
resolution to trace such bargains to the original
seller, who will then be required to supply other
shares of acknowledged validity. The decision of
the committee appears to be based upon the view
that the :buyer of these shares considered that he
was buying the genuine stock of the company, and
that consequently his right must be maintained.
In each case the decision of the committee refers
merely to the internal discipline of the Stock Thc.
change, and affects in no degree the responsibility
of the Crystal Palace Company to make good the
losses sustained through the fraudulent practices
of their recognised officer. With reference to this
point it may be useful if we publish the Bth clause
of the Crystal Palace Company's deed of settle-
ment, which is rather curiously worded. It runs
as follows :

" Register of shareholders to be conclusive as to the
lawful proprietorship of shares.-8. That any person
who shall from time to time be or appear registered in
the register of shareholders as the proprietor of any
share shalt, unless and until his share shall by operation
of law or otherwise become vested in some other person,
be treated and recognised by the company as the lawful
and rightful proprietor of such share, although in fast be
may have been improperly so registered, and no other
person claiming or entitled to be the proprietor of such
share shall have any claim against the company in re-
spect thereof but only against the nersou who shall be so
registered and his representatives."
