SLR GEORGE GREY.

Yesterday afternoon a numerous and influential
deputation of merchants and others interested in the
trade and prosperity of the Cape of Good Hope,
residing in this country, waited upon Sir George
Grey, the late Governor of that colony, who is
again re-appointed to the office, at Howchin's Hotel,
St. James's-street, by appointment, to present to
him the Address recently agreed to at the meeting
at Gresham House, Broad-street.
Among the gentlemen composing the deputation
were Mr. J. R. Thomson, Mr. Godlonton, Mr. G.
Leethorn Browne, Mr. Searight, Mr. W. Foster,
Mr. R. Pormsett, Mr. Hamilton Ross, Mr. G.
Bushell, Mr. P. and Mr. M. S. Vanderbyl,
Cawood, Mr. Mosenthal, Mr. C. J. Busk, Mr. Saxon
Mr. Henry Hobinson, and others.
Mr. J. R. TllomsoN presented the address to his
Excellency, which he said proceeded from a class of
men in this country connected with the Cape,
and most deeply interested in the progress of the
colony. They desired to avail themselves of the
earliest opportunity of waiting upon Sir George
with an expression of their regard and gratitude
for the great and important services rendered by
him to the colony in his private as well as public
capacity of governor of that settlement and its de-
pendencies. They deeply sympathised with, and
entirely concurred in, the regrets so universally
expressed by the colonists at his recall, and they
entertained a strong hope that their petitions for
his re-appointment might be granted. They were
moved more deeply to cherish that hope, because,
whilst they could rejoice in the confident faith that
the internal improvement and progress of the
colony, so much promoted during his administra-
tion, was henceforward guaranteed to it through the
numerous excellent instititutions and important
public works initiated and promoted by him, they
could not profess to believe that sufficient time had
been allowed so to mature and consolidate the
frontier system of the colony, that its author and
founder could be so suddenly removed without
danger, not only to colonial but to imperial in-
tere:-4s. They begged him to accept their sincere
congratulations to Lady Grey and himself on his
safe arrival in England in the enjoyment, they
trusted, of improved health, and they assured biro
of their best wishes for their continued happiness
wherever the future lot of his Excellency and Lady Grey might be cast.
Sir GEORGE GREY said—Gentlemen, I feel very
grateful to you for the warm expression of good-
will with which you have welcomed Lady Grey
and myself, upon our arrival in England. The
gratification I felt at the manner in which,
my services at the Cape of Good Hope hed
been appreciated by so many persons resident
in that colony was to me a rich reward for
any exertions I had been able to make to
promote its welfare. That gratification, how"
ever, is now much heightened by my finding, from
your address, in how favourable a light those set'
vices have been viewed by many in this country.
In reference to the wishes you have expressed that
I may be able to resume the government of the
colony of the Cape of Good Hope, I may state that
the Duke of Newcastle, shortly after assuming the
duties of Secretary of State for the Colonial Depart-
ment, decided upon not carrying out my contenr
plated immediate removal from the office of Go'
vernor. His Grace wrote to me, notifying this
his intention entirely of his own accord, without
any solicitation to that effect having been made
to him by myself or, in as far as I am aware, by
any other person whatever. But• his Grace 'tl
letter did not reach the colony until I had quitted
it. I had originally felt sensibly the distinction
of being selected by him for so difficult a pogo"
tion as that of the Governor of the Cape of Go"
Hope ; but now I feel still more grateful for the
promptitude with which he has wished to retai.ll,
me in that office. If, then, circumstances permit
of my shortly returning to the Cape of Good flope,
to the ordinary incentives to fulfil my duty to her
Majesty, which are in themselves strong enough;
I shall now have added a sense of the necessity of
justifying the Duke of Newcastle in the favour"
able estimate he has formed of the value of 1111
services, and yourselves, and the colonists, in the
estimate which you have formed of my past eOl.-
lions. It will be very difficult to do this successfully
after the expectations which the kindness of your-
selves and others has created. I can only 11°131
that strength may be given me to accomplish it, 1
I strive earnestly, as I will do, to perform my del
to a colony, the interests of which I have now for
several years exerted myself to the utmost to
advance. (Hear, hear.)
Mr. LATIIAM BROWNE said it was extremely
gratifying to the deputation to learn from Sir
George that there was a prospect of his returning to
the colony, the news of which would be carried out
by the next mail, which would leave in a day or
two. He asked when the deputation would know
officially that Sir George meant to return.
Sir GEORGE GREY ssid, so far as the matter
could be arranged, he considered-it settled nes;
(Cheers.) He could truly say that to be separated
from so many projects that were going on in the
colony had been extremely painful to him. What
fright .-3ned him now most were the expectations
which the kindness of the deputation induced theta
to entertain.
The deputation then took leave of his Excellency'
with whose cordial reception they were much gilt"
tified.

ANOTHER STORY OF A SCOTTISH
BANK.

A bill of complaint has just been filed by a ahrat
holder in the Edinburgh and Glasgow Bank agate
the chairman and joint managers. The Times C,„
ul
Article gives the following account :
From February, 1850, to 1858, Mr. John Calleldl
constantly purchased shares in the Edinburgh an
Glasgow Bank, on the strength, as he avers, of the
reports submitted at each meeting, until his holding'
amounted to about £6,000, of which sum he ne.,h
claims restitution from those whom he charges with
having squandered it. The bank had offices 1a
Edinburgh and Glasgow, with directors in eae7
city ; its capital was £1,000,000, in £5 shares, ar
the usual provisions, to which some persons, who
,
fancy that honesty can be secured by an abundantcomplication of legal restraints, attach so much iel:
portance, were made to prevent improper advance°
to the directors or others, and to compel the vvindill,o
up of the bank on the loss of one-fourth of the cape'
tal. But it is alleged that in 1850, when the repel."
announced " a large and steadily increasing We:
ness," and recommended an annual dividend of 6 per
w':
cent., free of income tax, there was an overdra
sum of £737,001, which had been received by nine
persons or firms, none of- whom could meet that*
engagements. Two of these, who were indebted te.
the bank £290,099, had actually passed into inse'
vency prior to the date of this meeting,
yet the
amount proposed to be written off for bad debt/
was £11,457, "leaving a reserve fund of £106,140.'
Durinc, each successive year the ruin became greatsrf
but thee reports, even when they confessed parti.a,.
losses, always stated that they were such as reign!
easily be retrieved, and that the current busine,s:
was most extensive safe, and profitable. When the
shares declined the 'bank made large purchases, and
these constantly figured in each balance-sheet 07,
good assets, under the head of " stock investmentg_._
On one occasion, when a shareholder wrote to the
secretary, intimating his intention to point out at
a general meeting a false statement in the report,
the bank sent their law agent to him to purchas7
the whole of his shares at par, and thus to prevell''•
his attendance. Throughout the whole of thle
time the bank was in debt to its London agent*
and was kept alive solely by a wholesale
system of re-discounting. Yet in February, 1858'
—only four months before the final stoppage
—when an acknowledgment of some heavy losses
had become unavoidable, and it was deemed exP,e,...
client be
to recommend that the £5 shares should
reduced to £2 10s. each, this necessity was attri-
buted only to the discovery of old-standing deg"
cieneies, and it was announced that under the pre;
posed arrangement the bank would be in a "sound
and satisfactory condition," that the business for
the past year had been " most profitable and satin-
factory ; and that, although a dividend of only tisi
per cent, was recommended, a considerably largiere
distribution might have been fairly declared. -t"
the same time, the chairman, Sir W. Johnston, re'
commended the shareholders not to sell their shares,
but to buy more, and concluded with the assurance,
"We have revealed everything; we have made a
clean breast of it," or words to that effect. Three
months later there was renewed alarm, and the
shares again began to fall rapidly, when the bans.
sent out a circular assuring holders that there vial
no ground for it, that everything was in a sound
position, and that nothing was required but the
cordial support of the parties interested to secure
"continued" prosperity. This caused a rise, but it
was only temporary, and in the course of about nine
weeks the bank had ceased to exist. On the 21st of
June, 1858, the chairman reported that they bad
been compelled to make an agreement under which
their affairs would be wound up by the Clydesdale
Banking Company, and the shareholders have since
learned that the whole of the assets have been at
sorbed, and that there will be no return to them of
any sum whatever.

confidently assured that no official order has yet been issued
upon this subject, and that when it does, it will not hays
for its. object the employment of animal hides, now scarce
and dear enough, but, in all probability that admirable
substitute, "vegetable leather," the discovery of the Messrs'
Spills, the well-known army contractors of Stepney.--

stay a NEs.—The standard for copper ore last week
1-0.4tal I:lced upwards of £3, and there is a better tone in the
in trade altogether. Copper in particular shows greatly
htreased firmness, and tin is at a highly remunerative
`,"„je. It is thus satisfactory to find that, while the greatest
oVvitY Prevails in the Mining Share Market, the price of
t jaulietals is improving also. Since last week, in addition.
me large amount of business, there has been come exte-
ear n the market, consequent upon the discovery a,t East
14.8 t. outhe first intimation of which we gave m our
" /slonday morning the shares opened at SZ,
8 t advanced to 61, 7. The next day they reached
the? 81, but became flatter as parties began realising
Ab r Pmfits, and they leave off at 7 to 71.
we eta thr% weeks ago, when we first stated the shares
I),,,ree')mino• in demand, the price was 2, and the rise has
11 equal t0£36,000 A circular was forwarded to the
LnYguareholders early in thei week from the office of the com-
at Salisbury, with a report that the lode cut, and
1 ictitieerto called Symonds's, was the South Caradon murder
4to and worth as far es seen £5O to £6O per fm. On the
re 4 the lode was valued at £75 per fin., and the latest
toljtr we have heard gives it at £BO par fin. In addition
eta, IN Paucett's lode, lately met with in the same crosa-
-1,400 worth £25 per fin., and the discovery altogether is
