CANAIY:4.

From the Quebec Courier of the 20th
" A rumour was current in town yesterday that Lord
Gosford was about to remove or suspend Mr. Justice Gale
from his office. Whatever his Excellency's instructions
upon this point may be; we cannot ,believe that he would
hazard this act of injustice, seeing that he would by so
doing so far abet the tyranny of the House of Assembly
as could not fail to rouse the indignation of- the whole Bri-
tish and Irish population in the colony."
By a statement of the afrairs of the Bank of Mori.
treal, and the City Bank, IVlontreal, it appears that the -
amount of bank-notes of the former in circulation on
the 7th ult. was 253,2361., while their capital paid
in was 250,0001., and gold and silver i❑ the bank
106,5601. The amount of outstanding acceptances of
the bank was only 277/. 155., and their cash deposits,
including all sums due from the bank not bearing in-
terest, its bills in circulation, profits and balances ex-
cepted, was 276,7051. The balances due from other
banks was 29,576/. ; and the general debts, including,
bonds and obligations, bills of exchange, notes dis-
counted, &c., 706,294/. The capital stock of the city
bank paid in was 200,0001.; bills in circulation, 90,4271.;
balances due to other banks, 3,6731.; to foreign agents
on exchange transactions, 15,7021.; cash deposited,
37,021/4 coined metals in the bank, 25,6571.;
bills due from other banks, 32,2491.; and gene-
ral debts, 299,9701. The commercial transac-
tions at Montreal had been very unimportant, as
the business season was considered closed. There was
only one outward-bound vessel in port, the Alceeus,
which was to clear immediately for the West Indies.
Bills of exchange were scarce, as neither the Montreal
nor the City Bank were drawing any amount of conse-
quence. Merchants' bills were 101 to 2 per cent.
premium. The principal importations from Upper
Canada, during the previous week, were-104,840
barrels of flour, 44,347 bushels of wheat, 13,126 bar-
rels of pork, 11,727 barrels of ashes, 591 barrels of
beef, and 441 hogsheads of tobacco.

Directors in the New Dividend Warrant Office. There
used to be one in the old office, which was found to b°
very great convenience to the Proprietors and otherholdel
of Stock. It was the more necessary as the election '

book and Almanacs were correct for only three months.
The GOVERNOR said that there could be no objection t°

to. The Coml. then adjourned.
