The intention of Government to renew, with but
slight modifications, the Charter of the Bank of England,
is now pretty well believed in monetary circles, and
the delegates of the Joint Stock Banking interests
are assembling in' the City to offer as much op-
position as possible to the maintenance of the exclu-
sive system, and to obtain, if possible, for themselves, a por-
tion of the great advantages which the corporation possesses.
If what we hear be correct, a strong ground of opposition
will be taken up by the friends in Parliament of the Joint
Stock Banks in London, and already the attempt to excite
public attention to this subject has been commenced. After
all, it may happen that the renewal of the charter of the
corporation will not be so easy an operation as would be
imagined from the tenour of the discussion which took place
in the House of Lords between the Duke of Wellington and
Lord Monteagle on Tuesday evening.—Observer.
THE LAND
OF THE FREE.--A New York paper
of the 10th ult., announces, in the following cool, dry, matter-
of-fact style, the intended execution of one human being
for endeavouring to assist another in obtaining those rights
which, according to the American declaration of independenae,
belong to all men :—" Capital punishment in South Caro-
' lina.—Judge O'Neall sentenced a voting man, named John
L. Brown, on the 21st ultimo, at Columbus, to be hung on
the 2Gth of April next, under a conviction of aiding a slave
, to run away!"
