LONDON, SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER 14, 1650

Much interest has been excited at Manchester, the
manufacturing metropolis of this mighty empire, by
a series of lectures which Mr. JONATHAN DUNCAN,
the clear-headed, intelligf-nt, and inde fAtigable secre-

tart of the " Nution2l Currency Reform Acsoci3tion,

recently delivered at the Mechznics' Institution of
that town, on the all-important question to which he
has devoted himself vbith so much z-al and assiduity
far many years past. It is needless to say that in
Mr. DoiscAN's hands the suhiect was treated clearly
and intelligibly, and that much sound information
was conveyed to the audience, who listened with
anxious attention to the salutary truths enunciated by
the talented monetary reformer.
It cannot be supposed that the people of Manches-
ter will long remain indifferent to the great problem,

on the proper solution cf which their own welfare and

prosperity, in common with that of the great body of
the industrious classes, so wholly depends. They have
hitherto exercised an important influence on the great
economical questions of the day, and they will surely
arouse themselves from the state of quiescence into
which they had fallen, or rather into which they had
suffered themselves to be lulled by incompetent
leaders.

The establishment of free trade, the abolition of the
pernicious monopoly which, under the name of "pro-
tection," so long bung an incubus over the land, in-
creasing the price of food to the over-toiled artizan,
and enervating the energies and sapping the prosperity
of its warmest advocates—the sturdy yeomen of
England—who suffered thera!elves to be seduced by
its fatal blandishments, was owing to the shrewd,
practical common sense, the vigorous action of
the men of Manchester. That " great fact," the
Anti-CJrn-law League, sprung into existence and was
nurtured among themselves, until it finally attained
the gigantic proportions wl-:ich enabled it to cru,h the
monster monopoly. During their apprenticeship
they learned how to conduct a peaceful agitation,
to convey the voice of public opinion, temperately but
firmly expressed, to the reluctant cars of the Legisla-
ture, and discovered that no merely human power
could withstand the irresistible farce of the popular
will.

Such persons may fur a time b 9 deceived, but they
cannot lorg be kept in blis,ful ignorance. They
may be misled by fallacies, but they will not continue
blindfolded when accurate iLformation is attainable,
and in Mr. DUNCAN they have been so fortunate as to
find a competuut instructor, possessed of the highest
qualifications for the task he has und:-!rtaken.

The subjects selected by the talented lecturer were
" labour, trade, and currency." He pointed out the
intimate connexion between them, and proved that the
employment of labour, the briskness and activity of
trade, depended on a currency adequate to the wants
and exigencies of the country—that a sufficient cir-
culating medium—a proper representative of ?slue—
was the very life-blood of industry, the motive power
which sets the wheels in action, and produces the de-
sired results. He lucidly explained the intolerable
evils arising from our present unwise, impolitic, and
inequitable system, which is equally opposed by the
principles of justice and of expediency, and he traced
those evils to their very source and origin—the fuul
sink of "bullionism."

Tne parrot-cry of "over-production," the specious
fallacy put forward by the hullionists to shield their
favourite theory from the reproaches of those who
have suffered deeply and bitterly through its agency,
was well commented upon by Mr. DUNCAN. " What,"
he asked, " was the definite meaning we attached to
the preposition over,' when we used the term • over-
production ?' As no one objected to production,'
the evil, if it existed, must be in the comparative
significaney of the preposition. To say that there
was production over' the natural desires and appe
tite's, or wants, was absurd, cad must remain so until
history produced cireurnsemus !(.r which every
man, woman, and child Lad more to tat and clothe
themselves with than their natural appetenciesrequired.
The only sense that could be given to the preposition
was that mere goods were pr..duced than there was
metallic money to circulate, so that the production
was over the quantity of money permitted by the
Acts of 1819 and 1344 to be in circulation. The
error, therefore, was clearly in bullionism itself, and
not in the industrial capacities of the human race."
Mr. DUNCAN was right ; how could there have beeia
"over-production" when a large portion of the com-
munity where undergoing the most d(florable priva-
ticiaa ? Of what was the over production ? Wiwi it

of food ? Let the myriads of starving wretches who
were unable to procure sufficient of the coarsest de-
scription of nutriment to alleviate the pangs of hunger
reply ! Was it clothing ? How many of those
scantily fed were even worse clad shivering in
rag., scarcely sufficient for the purposes of decency,
and quite insdequate to shelter and protect their
wretched wearers from the inclemency of the
weather ? It is cruel, nay more, it is impious to
speak of " over-production" under such circum-
stances. There cannot be over-production so long
as a single human want remains unsatisfied,
so long as any man able and willing to work is unable
to exchange his only capital, his labour, for a suffi-
ciency of the ordinary necessaries of life, and requires
an additional supply of those articles which are said
to be " produced" in excess. If there be a deficiency
to supply all demands some must abate in their re-
quirements, in order that all may have sufficient to
sustain existence. The case is similar to that of a
vessel in which there is a scarcity of provisions. The
crew arc placed upon what is termed "short allow-
ance," a necessity to which even the officers must sub-
mit. But what would be thought of the management
if" short allowance" proved the rule and not the ex-
ception, if the sufferings of the crew were deliberately
planned, and their lives endangered, in order to en-
hance the profits of th 3 voyage, or to carry out some
hobby of an influential party in the management ?
But this is what has been done by the framers of our
monetary code. There is sufficient for all, but
the measure is wanting. It is as if

a municipal law were passed, by which
no bread could be sold in the city of London unless
it had been weighed at certain scales deposited at the
Mansion-house. This would clearly be insufficient
to weigh all the bread required for the wants of the
community. A favoured few, who had priority over
others, might think the law a good one because it in-
sured " full weight ;" but what would the multitude
say who were compelled to enter into a scramble, and
frequently to come away without procuring the ne-
cessary supplies ?
.They could obtain an abundance at
the shops of the bakers, if not prevented from going
there, directly, and they would speedily show their
just indignation and compel a repeal of the obnoxious
regulation. The man who endeavoured to show that
the difficulty was ascribable to " over, production" on
the part of the bakers, and not to the deficiency of
accommodation provided by the civic authorities for
the transfer of bread, would be " laughed to scorn."
But such an argument is gravely put forward by the
bullionists, and actually referred' to and considered
tenable by persons calling themselves statesmen and
occupying high positions in the national councils.
Mr. DuNcaN showed the punishment that followed
similar, presumption in 1821 and 1826. In the for-
mer year the farmers petitioned Parliament fur re-
lief for the egricultural distress, arising from the
" excess of the harvest"—the distress being ascribed
to " too great an abundance of food !" Within six
short months the wail of agony was heard from the
famine-stricken people of Ireland ! After the panic
of 1825 the manufacturing districts humbly besought
the assistance they so urgently required, and were
told that they had been guilty of " over-production''
—that they had been too industrious, and would
have been more prosperous had they exhibited more
sloth and i'lleness. Within the same year the "cast-
off army clothing was sent down to cover the naked.
ness of the very people who were charged with the
sin of producing too much clothing." As Mr. DUN-
CAN truly remarks, " both these were cases of under-
production of money, and not of over-production of
materials."

THE FRENCH REPUBLIC

We have received the Paris papers of yesterday.
The proceedings of the society of the 10th Decem-
ber have attracted the attention of General CHAN-
GARNIER and of M. CARLIER, the Prefect of Police,
and its members are consfquently strictly watched.
Count Mous has, it is said, joined M. DE SALVANDY
in his attempt to bring about a reconciliation between
the two branches of the Bourbon race. All the mem-
bers of the Orleans family will shortly assemble at
Ostend, when they will be joined by M. DE
SAnvatini, who will report progress. M. TuIERS
still declares his opinion that the only restoration of
monarchy possible in France is in the person of the
Count DE PARIS.
M. EMILE DE GIRARDIN has written a long article
in the Presse in favour of a revision of the Constitu-
tion, in which he recommends the abolition of the
office of President, but at the same time admits that
should the office not be abolished the re-election of
Lours NAPOLEON BONAPARTE to the Presidency is
certain.

The .Nepaulese ambassador, JUNG BAHADOOR, was
at the opera on Wednesday night, and was so de-
lighted with the dancing of CEittro that he pro-
ceeded behind the scenes, and uuclasping from his
wrist a valuable diamond bracelet, presented it to the
Diesse.

The PRESIDENT arrived in Paris at half after
eleven o'clock on Thursday night, by the Rouen
Railway. The Prefect of Police and the Prefect of
the Seine had gone to Bonnieres to meet him. All
the villages and towns through which he passed on
Thursday evening were illuminated. At Falaise his
reception was enthusiastic, and he was obliged to ad-
dress the people from the balcony of the Hotel de
Ville. At Argantan he was presented with an ad-
dress by the mayor and municipal council.
We read in the Evenement :—" We are assured
that MM. DUCHATEL and MONTALIVET are about to
leave for Ostend, where the august widow of Lours
PHILIPPE is to arrive to-morrow or Saturday, accom-
panied by the Duchess D'OBLEANS and her two sons,
the Duke and Duchess DE NEMOURS, the Prince and
Princess DE JOIN vILLE, and the Duke and Duchess
D'A.UMALE. King LEOPOLD had, it is said, invited
his mother-in-law to reside at Brussels, but the con-
seil de famille has decided otherwise, at least for the
present, and all the family will remain for six weeks
at Ostend, in the Hotel d'Allemagne, which has been
prepared for their reception."
The Patrie says :—" The Queen of the BELGIANS,
it is said, is in much more delicate health than was
supposed. Her malady is making such rapid pro-
gress that her medical attendants are seriously uneasy,
and it has been thought advisable by the King of the
BELGIANS to send fir Dr. CUOMEL, of Paris, the
special medical attendant of the Orleans family. A
letter to that effect arrived on Wednesday in Paris,
and Dr. Criousz. set MY the same night."
We read in the, Patrie :—" The news announced on
Wednesday by the Journal (lei Debuts of the de-
parture of M. DE SALVA NDY for Frohsdorff,
where the Count DE CHA MIuRD was ex-

pecteJ, has been the subject of much conver-
sation. The most contradictory and the most exag-
gerated rumours have been disseminated. One of the
most important men of the majority affirmed to us
yesterday that there is nothing in this journey of
M. DE SALVANDY but an act of refined propriety,
which he is charged to accomplish between the
two exiled families. Politics have nothing
whatever to do with the journey. The follow-
ing, we are informed, is what has taken place :
During the short visit which M. DE SALVANDY
thought fit to make to Wiesbaden, he was with
the Count DE CHAMBIRD when the news arrived of
the death of Louis PHILIPPE. M. DE SALVANDY
was charged by the PRINCE to express from him to
MARIE AMELIE his regret and sympathy for the
misfortune which had fallen on her and her family.
M. DE SALVANDY, in consequence, proceeded
to Claremont to carry the simple compliments
of condolence of the Count DE CHAMBORD to the
widow of Louis Pniniren, and in exchange for
that kind act on the part of the Prince, MARIE AME-
LIE in her turn charged M. DE SALVANDY to carry
back to her nephew the expression of her thanks and
sympathy. That is the whole explanation of the
presence cf M. DE SALVANDY on the road to Frohs-
dorff. There is nothing more or less in the news of
the Journal des Debats."

The King of DENMARK bas just sent to M. pE„.
sicsor the grand cross of Danebrog, on the occasion
of the affairs of Schleswig.
The Bulletin de Paris states that the speech of the
PRESIDENT of the Republic at Caen was yesterday
the subject of discussion by the permanent commis-
sion of the National Assembly, and that it was even
proposed by the minority that the Assembly should
be convoked to take it into consideration. This
strange proposition, says the Bulletin, was imme-
diately rejected.
At an extraordinary general meeting of the share.
holders of the Orleans to Bordeaux Railway Com-
pany, the question of accepting► the law of August
6, 1850, by which the concession is prolonged
from twenty-seven years and some days to fifty years,
,A as brought for word for consideration. The
meeting was a m( st numerous one, nearly
1,300 shareholders being present, representing
upwards of 52,000 shares. After a most able state-
ment made by .M. BENAT, one of the directors, in
which he discussed the precise bearing of each of the
provisions of the law, the meeting, in accordance
with 'he opinion of the board of directors, decided
unanimously, minus one voice, that it accepted the
law in question. This decision was followed by loud
applause._

There is no rest for the wicked ; no sooner was the
arrival of HAYNAU at Cologne known than the people
assembled for the purpose of " bettering the example"
set them by the London draymen, and the " Austrian
woman flogger" again owed his escape to the police,
to whom he gave himself in charge, and who pro
tected him.

The Emperor of AUSTRIA left Vienna on the 9th
for Topli•z. Baron MAYENDORF, the new Russian
Ambassador to Austria, has arrived at Vienna;
Count AIEDFAI, his predecessor, left the city on
the 7th.

The Frankfort Zeitung publishes the following from
Cassel of the Bth :

" Five persons have been arrested for having torn
down the decree which declares the country in a state
of siege. M. Heise, the editor of the Frcions, has
escaped imprisonment by flight. The printing-office
of the New Gazelle of Hesse is still occupied militarily,
and the proprietor of the journal, M. Oetk( r, and
NI. She el, the priut,,r, were threatened with imprison-
ment if they made the slightest resistance. This
morning all the numbers cf this journal were seized.
A complaint has been addressed to the Ministry on the
subject, and it is expected that a civil action will be
commenced. Last evening the permanent commission
of the States addressed to the public prosecutor the fol-
lowing indictment against the Minister of State, M. de
Hasseni.flug, Major do Haynau, and Councillor de
Baumbach, in consequence of the decree of the Elector,
which places the country in a state of war:—' The per-
manent commission sees in this decree a serious abuse
of power, and considers it even as a crime of high trea-
son, according to the terms of the decree of 14th Fe-
bruary, 1795, considering that it has for its object to
do away with the organization and the constitution of the
country. It has, in consequence, resolved to impeach
the Ministers for a violation of Art. 61 of the Commis-
sion, and re quests the public prosecutor to proceed con-
formably to paragraph 75 of the law of judicial organi-
zation, and to immediately arrest the accused.' The
public prosecutor then replied as follows:—' The public
prosecutor recognises in the acts of the Ministers of
which the permanent commission of the states complains,
a violation of the constitution; but Ministers who violate
the constitution cannot be impeached but by the states,
and not by the permanent commission, and only before
the high court. Consequeatly the demand of the com-
mission for the arrest and impeachment of the Ministers
cannot be followed up.' A letter of the 9th says that
although the public prosecutor has ruji cted the charge
brought against the Ministers the Procurator-General
has ordered the Ministers to be arrested. At Hanau the
municipal council refused to publish the last decree of
the Government."

MONEY and COMMERCIAL NEWS.
CITY, TWO O'CLOCK.
The Cotten Market at Liverpool yesterday was
firmer, the sales being estimated at from 5,000 to 6,000
bal. s, of which 1,500 Pernams were taken for e xport at
81d. per lb.—ln Railway Shares a good business was
done at fully previous rates.
The direc;ion in which the accounts of the Bank of
England were tending last week, had been preserved
again up to the 7th inst., that is, the accomodation
afforded upon securities was extended, without any
larger amount of notes being in circulation, because of
the addition made to the sum of the public deposits.
The surplus profits of the corporation were larger, and
the amount of the precious metals sustained a slight
diminution. The balances cf private depositors were
reduced, and will probably he lower yet ere the transfer
books re-open. The notes reserved in the banking de-
partment increased to some extent. Compared:with the
previous week the results are as follows:--

Summing up the Railway traffic for the past week,
there is every remon to be gratified with the result, whe-
ther we take the lines of England, Ireland. or Scotland,
and we may observe, by the way, that in France there
has been a decided increase, although a special cause
may have contributed thereto, viz., the tours of' the Pre-
sident. Taking the returns as they stand alphabetically,
we find an increase to the following amount:—Aber-
deep, 801/.; Amiens and Boulogne, 7161.; Bristol and
Exeter, 6841.; Caledonian, 666/.; Cheater and Holy-
head, 1,3501.; Eastern Counties, 597/.: Edinburgh and

The accounts from Manchester, Leeds, &0., state that
business this week has improved.
The exports of the precious metals from London
during the week to Thursday last were 101,814 ounces of
silver to Belgium and Hamburgb; 2,500 ounces and 86/.
in gold to France.
The Amsterdam Stock Market was very buoyant on
Thursday for Dutch Stock, the Two-and-a-Half per
Cents. being 57i to 5-16; Spanish Three per Cents. were
higher, but the Five per Cents. remained about the pre-
vious rates. Mexican were not quite so good. Portu-
guese were without alteration.
The English Stuck Market is very quiet, and the
transfer b.ioks are closed for several investments. Con-
sols have been marked 964 4 for Transfer, and 96 for
Account. The New Three-and-a Quarter per Cents.
have been specially transferred at 99i Exchequer-
bills have realised 635. to 665., and India Bondi 86e

There has been more activity in the Foreign Market,
and the quotations have been a shade better
throughout. Spanish Five per Cents. have been
marked 194 and the Three per Cents.
33 to Portuguese Four per Cents. are nominally
