goes on to recommend all railway proprietors to
agitate the question of Sabbath desecration at their
public and private meetings. "Freedom of speech
and of debate being given," he adds, "we can
reiterate our principle, and make all half-
yearly meetings as go many Lord's- day
Societies, none being suffered to pass with-
out hearing and sending abroad public testi-
monies for the truth ; and we hare the highest
authoritj for believing that such faithfulness may be
blessed to the convincing of many who are now op-
posed to us, for faith cometh by hearing." If Sir
ANDREW were to be one of the speakers at these
meetings, we should be disposed to say—" sleep
cometh by hearing," rather than " faith ;" but
passing this consideration, can any man con-
ceive a more absurd proposition than that the
half-yearly meetings of the railways should be
" as so many Lord's-day Societies"—in other words,
that they should constitute a strange jumble of busi-
ness and piety, where the language of the ledger
should be blended with the language of Scripture
and exhortations to look sharp after the dividend be
followed with exhortations to look sharp after their
immortal souls ?

In the " Money Articles" of all the London news-
papers it will be found that the very high price ob-
tained by Consols is a subject of astonishment to
some, of congratulation to others. In the former
feeling we should certainly participate, were it not
for the very peculiar condition of circumstances
which now affects the investment of capital. In the
latter we should concur, did not our apprehensions
for the future greatly outweigh any reasons we can
discern for satisfaction with the present. Between
the extravagant and perilous enterprises which are
on all hands now soliciting investments, with pro-
mises of tempting returns, indeed, but these founded
on bases of security almost as flimsy and as worth-
less as the sheet of paper on which they are set
forth—between these and the legitimate channels, as
they are called, of the public securities, there are
few left to choose from. The great established cor-
porate stocks of the elder public companies are seldom
brought into the market, and, when they are, soon
disappear, from the avidity with which they are
sought after by capitalists who prefer, and can
afford, a moderate, but certain and unfluctuating
return for their money, to precarious dividends,
ranging this week between an unit and a thousand—
the next, descending from a thousand to an unit.
The Government securities, from this cause, and
others of the same nature, become in demand. The
operations of the Chancellor of the Exchequer in re-
ducing a large portion of the Three-and-a-Half per
Cents., and the considerable sums of money thrown
back on the hands of small annuitants, to whom
many provincial banking establishments decline to
allow the rate of interest they formerly paid on such
deposits, on account of the increased liabilities they
are placed under by the last Joint-Stock Banks' Re-
gulation Act, may have contributed their influence
to produce this action in favour of one of the most
favourite stocks, notwithstanding the obvious dis-
advantage at which the new funders must invest at
such a price as 100 and a fraction. But what is the
reason of a fact we learn from the concurrent autho-
rity of the same articles, namely, that, notwithstand-
ing a high price of Consols thus unfavourable to the
general operation and object of present investments,
and notwithstanding the release and diffusion of so
many broken masses of money no longer employed,
and, moreover, the enormous aggregate of ready
capital procurable on Government paper and first-
rate bills at from two to two and a fraction per cent.
—discounts, on any other bills, however unexception-
able, are procurable only with the great degree of
difficulty they speak of ? Five per cent., and from
half as much more to as much again, would be given,
but these rates will not fetch out the dormant cash.
This is surely an anomalous and a mischievous state
of things. When it prevails, money accumulates to
an enormous extent in a few hands, but is withheld
from the many. The operations and energy of the
many are more or less paralysed by the torpid action
and dead weight of the few. Property, in its repre-
sented form, ceases to circulate, because the means of
circulation are absorbed by a few isolated points of
the general machine. To give multiplication and
expansion to these means would surely be the first ob-
ject of wise legislation. The legislation of Sir ROBERT
PEEL establishes a more direct principle of absorp-
tion, contracts the number of points, puts additional
checks on the circulation, and keeps down the natu-
ral tendency of representation and expansion by the
high-pressure power of a metallic currency, which
we greatly fear will one day involve in its
own explosion the ruin of our commercial
credit, as it has already effectually sapped the
foundations of our commercial prosperity. This fatal
interference with our monetary system has proceeded
on the normal solecism of attempting to make gold
at once a standard of value at a fixed price, whilst he
has permitted and recognised the trade in that metal
as a commodity or merchandise, subject, like any
other, to all the fluctuations of value in the market,
which are produced by the varying amount of demand
and supply. He compels the Bank of England, and
all other issuers of paper in this part of the kingdom,
to pay their notes on demand in gold, at the Mint
price of 3/. 17s. 101 d.—a price so cheap as to have
repeatedly been, since the enactment of 1819, less
than the price of gold of the same fineness in the
market. All issuers of bank notes—the Bank of
England " first and foremost"—have been compelled
to limit their issues, not according to the simple re-
quisitions of the wants of trade, the exigencies of the
demand, the amount of property of all kinds in the
market awaiting conversion into money capital, but
by the chances of their ability at any future period,
proximate or distant, to procure gold in sufficient
abundance to meet all notes of their issue which may
be presented for payment. llad the principle of con

vertibility been limited to gold "at the market price"
—if the current payment, instead of being enforced
at the fixed and almost universally cheap price of
3/. 17s. 100. per ounce, this grievous cause of

currency contraction--of a heavy per tentage
loss to banks of issue and of exhausting
weakness, hazard, and decay, throughout the
whole operation of our commercial system and
our domestic economy—would have been, if
not utterly extinguished, at least infinitely modi-
fied so as to be.xune of comparatively innoxious ef-
' feet. Under the system as it actually exists and
works, the employer of industrial labour is as much
acted on in an innumerable class of cases by this ex-
traneous pressure as the banker. To compe3sate him
for the risk lie runs of having to take up guld at pe-
riods when it is dear in the market, and the fluctua-
tion of prices he must meet when it is plentiful, he
impinges on the wages of labour. He no longer gives
a " fair day's wage for a fair day's labour"—that
righteous equivalent which Lord Joan RUSSELL has
so ably and so eloquently advocated. In what events
these fearful anomalies of our monetary and social
condition are pretty certain to determine, we shall en-
deavour to show in an early notice of the " First Re-
port of the Committee of the Society for the Emanci-
pation of Industry," and of the " Three Letters on
the Scottish Currency Question," by " SCOTUS." To
the former of these tracts we shall direct the especial
attention of our readers.

order to take refege in France. As to Zurbano himself,
it was supposed that he was lying hid in some village of
the high grounds, between Upper Arragon and Navarre.
It is not true, as had been reported in Bayonne, that he
had turned back !to Soria. The two prisoners, we un-
derstand, were placed in custody in the chapel of Lo-
grono. All that was waited for to hare them shot was the
order of General Pavia, Captain-General of Navarre.
Zurbano's son is 23 years of age."
The Phare des Pyrenees of the 24th gives longer
details, and states that it is the brother-in-law, not
the father-in-law, of ZURAINO, who had been cap-
tured with one of his sons. No traces of ZuttßANo's
flight had been discovered. That journal says :
" We have received a letter from Vittoria dated the
22d, and written at the moment the courier was about
to depart, which states the military authorities had just
received an official report announcing that Cayo Muro,
Zurbano's brother-in-law, and one of his servants, had
fallen into the hands of the Queen's troops on the 20th,
when endeavouring to gain the Ebro. One of Zurbano's
sons was also made prisoner on the night of the 20th.
" The news which we gave in our last number relative
to the rising of tie communes of Aeso and Echo (Upper
Arragon) appears positive. The following details have
reached us through Urdos, under date of the 21st:—
The first act of the insurgents was to disarm
the Custom-house officers placed over that part
of the frontier. They next seized on a rich landowner
of the country, whose only crime is being a Moderado,
and they demanded from him a sum of 20,000 f., which
he was obliged to pay down to save his life. Not-
withstanding this compliance on his part, great uneasi-
ness was felt for his life, as the insurgents had killed one
of his servants. The Governor of Jaca, informed of
these events, dispatched against the insurgents a detach-
ment of 50 soldiers, who, according to the account of
persons arriving at Urdos, were made prisoners. The
officer in command of the detachment was, it is said,

AMERICAN NEWS

ARRIVAL OF THE HIBERNIA.
LIVERPOOL, FRIDAY MORNING.
The British and North American mail steam-ship
Hibernia, Captain Ryrie, arrived here at twelve
o'clock last night, in twelve days and a half from
Boston, bringing the Canadian taxi United States
mails and fifty passengers.
The news by this arrival extends to the 16th inst.,
and is seven days later news.
The United States, and also Canada, were still
engrossed with election movements. In the former
Polk's majority continued to increase, and in Canada
the Conservative majority was also large. In com•
mercial matters there is but little to remark.
The success of Mr. Polk has given the Whigs great
anneyance, as will be seen from the following outline
of a speech delivered at Boston by Mr. Webster. He
thus commences imitating the language put into the
mouth of a certain personage by Milton :
" What if the field is lost—all is not lost ! The high
and abiding sense of duty, the indomitable will, the firm
and patriotic purpose, the devotion to liberty, our Con-
stitution, and our native land, all abide by us, as brilliant
as the firmament, and as enduring as these walls ; and
they cannot be taken from us by the power of a succesful
opponent, by the failure of friends, or by any circumstance
of adversity. Whatever are our prospects the truth is the
same, our country is the same, and we are the same. Mr.
Webster continued, that if the prospect of that day had
been the same as that of the preceding, he should
have asked the Committee to excuse him from attending
on this occasion, which would have been one of congra-
tulation and of joy, that he might obtain some repose
after the exertions of the campaign. But some clouds
having come across the prospect, it was more according
to his feeling to report himself, and take his part in re-
sisting the current of adversity, and to assist in forming
resolutions for the future, and doing whatever duties
firmness and patriotism might yet require. The Whigs
might not succeed at the coming election, but Massachu-
setts did not stand alone ; she had with her three other
States in New England, Vermont, Connecticut and Rhode
Island ; she had still with her Maryland and New
Jersey, Indiana, Georgiana, Louisiana, Ohio, and others;
our band was not yet broken, and our strength yet re-
mained sufficient. But what it Massachusetts did stand
alone, if she alone remained among the faithful ; if that
wore her distinction, let her win it—let her wear it ; it
would be a proud addition to her ancient crown. This
was not the proper occasion to investigate all the causes
of our disappointment, of the defection of the two great
States of New York and Pennsylvania. (But one cause
most to be deplored was very evident, and the result of
those elections had produced upon his mind the impres-
sion that there was a strong necessity for a thorough mo-
dification of the naturalisation laws of the country.) He
believed, upon his conscience, that the welfare of the
country imperatively demanded this, and that it was the
duty of all parties to attend to it, and that no man to
whom his country was dearer than party, would fail to
lend his assistance to such a measure.--(Mr. Webster's
declaration of this opinion was received with the heartiest
and most meaning cheers. He went on to strengthen it
by an examination of the question of naturalisation, and
his opinion was continually supported by the applause of
the audience.) He said that it was not unreasonable to
request of persons of foreign birth, before the exercise
of the franchise here, that made them sovereigns, that
they should have resided here long enough to be-
come acquainted with our institutions, and to be.
come American in feeling. The rights of per-
sons already naturalised are secured ; but he saw
a necessity for extending the time of probation of other
foreigners. Every American exercised a part of the
sovereign power. It is a great duty, forming no part of
European citizenship, and therefore not appreciated by
those who eome thence. Alterations in the law are re-
quired also to prevent the immense frauds arising from
the illegal use of naturalisation papers. He believr
that if it should turn out that this election had gone
against Henry Clay, it was from the fraudulent votes
of unnaturalised foreigners, and in proof of this
cited many stringent instances ; and he said if this
were the case, he thought we should go to
the source of popular power and have the error corrected.
He had not intended to go into the matters at issue in the
present canvass. He must refer to one. In the corres-
pondence with regard to the admission of Texas, that
project was advocated mainly in order to support what
were called the peculiar institutions of this country. It
was almost too much to read the comments of Europt
upon this ground of argument. An honest man could
hardly listen to the proposition that when morals, reli-
gion, civilisation, everything respected, were opposed to
the maintenance of slavery, that America should come
forward and declare it was a question necessary to the
support of her institutions. This was a question that
could not be permanently decided against us to-
day or to-morrow. If we could not avert it
now, by choice of a President or Vice-President,
we must do it by the choice of members of Con-
gress, and by sending our young, strong, and ac-
tive men to oppose the admission of Texas, and the
perpetuation of slavery. Re should shrink from no ser-
vice to oppose it, whenever and wherever he might meet
it. If free principles could exist nowhere else, let them
come to Massachusetts; let them entrench themselves in
Faneuil Hall, and laugh the siege to scorn! He saw
around him the portraits of Washington and Hancock,
and the other great men of our former days, and he
heard their voices saying unto us—' Whigs of Boston,
Whigs of Massachusetts, we are with you!' and fol-
lowing in the principles that they maintained, and fol-
lowing in the footsteps they trod, the Whigs of Boston
would answer them by saying, that they would follow
them through evil report and good report, and that,
living or dying, in prosperity or adversity, we should
show ourselves no unworthy followers of such glorious
fathers !"—(Mr. Webster sat down amidst tremendous
and long-continued cheers.)
(Correspondence of the Journal of Commerce.)
WASHINGTON, Nov. 11.—The result of the Presiden-
tial election was announced in this city, by the magic
telegraph, at midnight. The democratic hurrah an-
nounced it to the President. I learn that, at the White
House, the intelligence of the democratic triumph in
New York was received with the most heartfelt plea-
sure. The President looks upon the result as a complete
triumph of the principles which he maintained, and of
the measures which he sought to accomplish. A new
campaign, based on the great strength manifested by the
Whigs at the late election, has already opened. The
disbanding of the Whig party, and the abandonment of
antidiluvians and of antidiluvian policy, is already seen
in the annunciation of American Republican journals in
various parts of the country. The Whigs and their pe-
culiar policy, as far as the same was known, are already
lost sight of, and new combinations are on all sides
springing up. It belongs to some great and skilful poli-
tician to combine all these elements into a new, and
powerful, and successful party.
LATER FROM MEXICO.—The Creole, at New Orleans,
brings dates from Vera Cruz to the 22d ult. The es-
pousels of Santa Anna and his new bride were celebrated
in truly royal style—by proxy—he being upon his estate
of Mango de Cleve, and the lady in the city of Mexico.
A very large amount of ammunition has been already,
received at Vera Cruz, principally from England, pre-
paratory to an invasion of Texas. The army destined
f;)r the same purpose was slowly increasing by forced
recruits. Two new vessels of war, it is also stated, are
building in England for the Mexican navy. It was not
believed, however, that any demonstration would be wade
until spring.
LATEST FROM RIO JANEIRO.—By the arrival of the
St. Joseph, we have advices from Rio to the 6th of
September. The "war between Buenos Ayres and Brasil
has commenced in earnest; several skirmishes have taken
place on the north side of the La Plate during the march
of the Brazilian army towards Monte Video. The Bra-
zilians will not make so easy a conquest in that quarter
as was supposed. The Montevideans have received
strong reinforcements from the capital and all the prin-
cipal towns throughout the Argentine republic. General
Paz has left here for Monte Video; a small detachment
left a few days before him, under his special command.
He will overtake them before they reach Rio Grande,
when they will join a force of 12,000 men, and march
immediately for the seat of war.
SANDWICH ISLANDS.—By three vessels which arrived
in the Columbia in May last from Honolulu, accounts
were received of great rejoicing in the Islands consequent
on the acknowledgment of their independence by the
United States and the European powers.
LATE FROM BRAZIL.—The schooner Erie from Para,
brings intelligence to 18th Oct. Captain Mathews states
that the elections for the Natiopal Assembly, had re-
cently occurred through the Empire. The contest was
a very close and energetic one, between the Imperialist,
and the opposition party. It was reported in Para, that
there had been some serious disturbances in Ceara (a
neighbouring province). In the course of the riots and
fights, report says that several were killed and wounded
by shots fired by the Government troops, and by the
rioters.
MORMONS.—The Grand Jury have gone through with
their labours at Carthage. We learn that some persons
have been indicted for the murder of Joe and Hyrana
Smith, and others as accessories. Nine in all were in-
dicted. It will be recollected that all the county tribe-
nals and county offices are in the hands of the Mormons
or their tools, and the indictments were found upon the
testimony of Mormon witnesses. The editor of the
Warsaw Signal was one of the persons indicted as ac.
cessories. The persons indicted demanded a prompt
trial at the same term, but the State was not ready for
trial. One Murray M'Connell was present, and was
very officious in the business, and much in the jury-
room ; but whether he was acting as a hireling of the
Mormons or as an agent of their friend,Governor Ford, does
not appear. It is said that if the votes of the Mormons
be not needed in the Presidential election, they would
not vote, but reserve their strength to aid the Locofocos
in some future conflict. Seldom has there been a more
flegitious course than that pursued by the Locofoces
of
Illinois towards the Mormons.—St. Louis New Era,

killed in endeavouring to escape, and another officer,
belonging to the Custom-house corps, had met with the
same fate. The insurgents threatened to kill every pri-
soner that attempted to escape.' A letter which we have
received from Pampeluna, of the 21st, informs us that
the insurrection of the two communes met with no sym-
pathy from the surrounding valleys, and that the Cap-
tain-General of Arragon has sent troops in pursuit of
the insurgents. On his side, the Captain-General of
Navarre has directed a strong detachment on the valley
of Roncal, in order to assist in restoring tranquillity.
The news of the complete destruction of Zurbano's band
will powerfully contribute to enlighten these unfortu-
nate people, who must have been led astray by false re •
presentations."
The next scene will be the execution of the un-
happy victims of a scheme which, from the commence-
ment, held out no prospects of success. ZUREINO
had no wealthy supporters ; he could not bribe as
NARYAEZ did ; he had to trust only to the patriotism
of the people, but the people rejected him.
The following remarks, respecting the schemes of
certain Spaniards in Paris, appears in the Presse :
" The chiefs of the Progressist and the Ayacucho
parties in Paris are preparing a political demonstration,
from which they expect great effects. We said, a short
time ago, that three Madrid journals, El Expectader, El
Clamor Publico, and El Eco del Commereio, had opened
a subscription for the persons arrested as participators
iu the late affairs of Madrid and Barcelona. At the
instigation of the great leader of the party, it was
decided that there should be sent to Madrid, to be pub-
lished in all the journals, a list of subscriptions, con-
taining the signatures of all the Progressists and
Ayacuchos in France ar.d England. This list, which
has been circulated with the greatest mystery, has
already a large number of signatures. The first name,
we are assured, is that of General Espartero."

The same journal contains an article on the elec-
tion of Mr. Pots as President of the United States,
and thus expresses satisfaction at the defeat of
Mr. CLAY :

" That according to the accounts brought by the Great
Western, the election of Mr. Polk may be considered as
certain. We may be permitted, therefore, to examine
its bearing on external as well as on internal affairs.
The only question which affects us is whether the ten-
dency of the new Government will be injurious or ad-
vantageous to our interests, and in this point of view the
defeat of Mr. Clay does not cause us any regret. Whig
as he was, he nevertheless laboured hard to procure
the adoption by the American union of a system of
tariffs from which the manufactures of France suffered
severely. If he had succeeded in his election for the
President's chair, no doubt the present tariff would have
been maintained, and perhaps increased. To speak can-
didly, we are glad that Mr. Clay and his school have been
defeated, since the consequence may be a modification
favourable to the trade of our country. Mr. Polk, the
future President, appears disposed to reduce the duties
we complain of, and therefore Mr. Polk, Radical though
he be, is welcome to us. For the same reason his ap-
pointment will be favourably received in England, be-
cause the tariff of 1842 is equally injurious to English
interests. This satisfaction, however, will be mingled
with uneasiness. Mr. Polk is, iu fact, a declared par-
tisan for the annexing of Texas to the Union. He has
likewise declared for the definitive occupation of the
Oregon territory by the American forces. But these
are two acts against which England has never ceased to
protest. Being now masters of the Government, will
the democratic party and its representative pursue the
plans which they announced during the electoral con-
test? Will England, on her side, persist in the oppo-
sition which she manifested at the first declaration of
such an intention ? These aro questions which naturally
present themselves, and which merit the undivided atten-
tion of the political world."

The accounts received from Lebanon describe that
country as being the prey to civil war. Tho moun-

leaving nearly MO persons chargeable to that parish.
The trains of the Great 'Western Railway were
on Wednesday last detained for a considerable time, in
consequence of the bursting of a spring adjoining the
line, in the neighbourhood of Salford, about five miles
from Bath. The railway to the extent of a mile and
upwards, was for several hours completely covered with
water ; workmen were, without loss of time, engaged in
securing the spring, and the trains were then enabled to
proceed without interruption.—Bristol Gazette.

DEPARTURE OF THE GIBRALTAR MAILS.—SOUTII-
AmPToN, Nov. 28.—The Pacha, Captain Birnie, steam-
ship, left the docks at three P.M., taking out the Penin-
sula and Meditteranean mails, and twenty-fivepassengers
—among whom were the Duchess of Manchester and
suite, for Lisbon. The ship& Anus, Captain Richards,
from Quebec, arrived in the docks at three P.M., this day,
with a cargo of deals and timber; she left Quebec on the
23d ult. The captain reports having experienced very I
bad weather in the Gulf of St. Lawrence.

Madrid journals of the 21st instant give reports of
the proceedings in the Chamber of Deputies, which
show that even the Members take no interest in the
discussions. Not more than sixty were present when
the clause declaring the Senate elective was adopted.
No positive information respecting ZURBANO had
been received by the Government. The capital was
perfectly tranquil, and the funds remained firm.
The Three per Cents. closed at 283- for cash, and
281 at 60 days ; the Five per Cents. at 204 at 60
days; the Floating Debt at 653-, at 59 days; the
Coupons at 25i for cash ; and the Debt without In-1
terest at 6 for cash, and 6 3-32 at 60 days.

The accounts in the Paris papers, as well as those
published near the scene of action, leave no doubt
that the attempt of ZUBBANO to raise an insurrection
in the north of Spain had completely failed. His
followers were completely dispersed on the 19th or
20th inst., and ZURBANO himself escaped, but one of
his sons, a youth only twenty-three years of age, big
father-in-law, and several others fell into the hands of
the QUEEN'S troops. The Constitutionnel thus relates

BRITISH ALMANAC AND COMPANION, -1845.—We
can add little to our former remarks on the excellent
manner in which this almanac is arranged, and the
great variety of useful information contained in the
ninety-six pages of which it consists. It is as usual
beautifully printed. The Companion this year has
several important articles connected with general in-
formation on subjects of Mathematics, Natural His-
tory, Philosophy, Chronology, Statistics, &c. Among
others we direct attention to " Occupations
of the People," " Statistics of crime for Eng-
land and Wales," " Railways of Great Britain,"
and " Railways in Belgium." Under the head of
"Public Improvements" will he found some interesting
details of the principal buildings in progress or
finished during the last year, both in London and the
provincial towns. The writer, in describing the
Royal Exchange, pays the following compliment to
Mr. The :—" The Royal Exchange is an honour
to the City, one of the noblest public monuments in
the metropolis, or, we might say, the noblest which
the present age has yet produced in its full complete."
There is a little elegant sketch of the building, with
sketches also of the Conservative Club, St. James's-
street, the New Guildhall, Bristol, &c.

" We have received intelligence from Bayonne, which
gives as positive the arrest of the son, and father-in-law
of Zurbano, who accompanied him in his enterprise.
Both were taken on the night of the 20th, near the ELFro,
at the moment they were seeking to pass the river, in

FLANDERS MAIL.
BRUSSELS, Nov. 26.—The average price of wheat last
week was 17f. 48c., and that of rye 10f. 47c. The
duties on importation and exportation remain as they
have been for some weeks past.
The Chamber of Representatives yesterday adopted
the project of law relative to corn, by a majority of 66
to 3. Three members declined voting.
The Chamber then commenced the general debate on
the budget of ways and means. The Senate will meet
on Thursday, the sth of December.
We lately mentioned that a Prussian writer had taken
refuge in Belgium. The following are some new parti-
culars respecting the motives of the proceedings against
him :

" Charles Heintz, a very distinguished young student
at Cologne, lately published, at Berlin, a book, under the
title of " Bureaveratie Prussienne," which, exceeding 20
printed sheets, was not liable to the censorship. He has
been summoned to appear before the Tribunal of the
First Instance at Berlin, to answer to the accusation of
having ridiculed the institutions of the kingdom.
" As M. Heintz did not obey this summons, but took
refuge in Belgium, the tribunal at Berlin has issued a
writ to arrest him, and has caused a description of his
person to be printed and posted up everywhere.
" This last measure, which has hitherto been used only
against robbers and assassins, but never against political
writers, has excited a great sensation."
The eclipse of the moon on Sunday evening last was
not seen at Brussels, the sky being covered with thick
clouds.

The celebrated Russian General, Yermolof, died lately
at St. Petersburgh. Russia has lost within a short period
four distinguished Generals —Tolstoy, Renckendorf, Es-
sen, and Yermolof.

ALEXANDRIA, Nov. 6.—Fresh troubles are said to
have broken out in Syria. Travellers state that Jeru-
salem is invested by an Arab Sheik, who, with his horde,
infests the road from Jaffa to the holy city. We expect
in a few days positive confirmation on this subject, which
I will send you in my next.

MO.N.EY AND COMMERCIAL IN Vt. S
CITY, FRIDAY EVENING.
The English Stocks leave off very firmly this afternoon,
Consols being 1001 for Money, and 101 to /1- for
Account. Exchequer Bills, however, the differences
having to be paid in the English, Foreign, and Share
Markets, further declined to 595. and 575. premium.
The New Three-and-a-Quarter per Cents., 1021
The Foreign Bonds maintained a firm appearance.
Spanish Actives were 24,3, -a; the Three per Cents., 31a ;
Portuguese Converted, 554; and Dutch Two-and-a-lolAlf
per Cents., 63i to 62i.
The additional transactions in Railway Shares have

(From. 7Yil Synol Last Tight.)
The American advid'es' just reevi.Yeed state that Polk
was sere of his election...- Cotton declining in the
markets of New York, ,Bostan, &c. The ex-
change was 110 to f. There itte very heavy mail-bags
both from Canada and the States, and the Metcalfe
party was obtaining a majority at the elections.
The Cotton market at Liverpool was dull again yes-
terday, and prices still tended downwards. Sales, 5,000
bales, including 1,000 Surat, at 21d. to 3fd.; 200 Pernana,
at 51d. to 51d. ; 2C3 Egyptian, at 51d. to 54d.; and the
reet American.—The more speculative Railway Shares
were in some request, and others without alteration :
Bristol and Gloucester, 3.14 ; Chester and Birken-
head, Half, 161 ; Direct Northern, 24; Eastern Coun-
ties, Perpetual, No. 2,20 i. ; Edinburgh, Leith, and

Central of France, 11-41.
There has not yet been any information that can be
relied upon with respect to the probable recovery of
the notes, &c., stolen from the banking firm of
Messrs. Rogers and Co. It is said that at an interview
which Daniel Forrester had last evening with the firm.
facts were communicated which lead to a sanguine expec-
tation that the property will soon be recovered.
The notice. which was issued late yesterday after-
noon at the Bank of England, announcing the intention
of the Directors to make advances of money upon ap-
proved securities at 2} per cent., was not unexpected in
many influential quarters ; as from previous circum-
stances that have occurred, it is clear that in the "bank.
ing department" a strong competition has been com-
menced by the Corporation with the private bankers
of the City of London. It is, however, feared in many
quarters, that this continued low rate of interest by an
establishment having the power to put on the screw at
pleasure may lead to many disasters in the commercial
world, and hence a certain amount of dispraise is ex.
pressed at the small amount to be charged on advances
made by the Bank of England, although it should be
borne in mind that in September the Bank took bills at
21 per cent.
There is some anxiety felt for the arrival of the letters
and papers brought by the Hibernia steamer from
Halifax and Boston, which by the accounts received from
Liverpool, was in sight of port when the mail left yes-
terday. No doubt there will come to hand the missing
mail from Canada. The result of the election for Pre-
sident
of the United States will be fully established by
this arrival.

The settlement of the Account in the Foreign market,
has somewhat checked speculation in the English Funds.
Consols for the Account opened at 101 i-, but they are
now a shade lower—viz., at 101, and for Money at 1001.
The Commissioners bought about 15,000/. Stock to-day,
in Reduced Three per Cents. at par, and Three-and•a-
Quarter per Cents. at 1021. Bank Stock has advanced
to 207, and India Stcck at 288. Exchequer Bills are
rather higher than they opened in the morning.
The Account in the Foreign market has so far well
gone off. Spanish Actives have been sold at 244, and
the Three per Cents. at 85i Belgian and Dutch
Stocks are firm. Mexicans are are at 36 for Money,
and the Portuguese Converted at 551- for the Account.
Not much business has been done in the Railway
Share this morning. Prices have not varied much.

TRIAL OF THE LEVIATHAN STEAM-SIIIP GREAT
BRITAIN.—On Wednesday forenoon the new leviathan
iron steam-ship Great Britain, so long locked up in the
Bristol docks, made her first experimental trip of her
powerful engines in the Cumberland-basin, and they were
found to be perfectly satisfactory.
