It will be seen by this statement that asun.
er.ua remains after paying 20s. in the pound,
nevertheless the Assignees deem ,it necessary to
secure all the available private property of the
Bankrupts, to be in readinesi, should any de-
ficiency arise from the general balance, in order
to secure to the Creditors 20s. in the pound. It
is proper to state that the examinations were so
satisfactory that all the Assignees iunnedia lely
agreed to sign the Bankrupts' certificate, which
example, it is hoped, will be followed by every
Cred:tor, whose debt amounts to 201. and up.

UNITED CHILI AN MIMING ASSOCIATION.-
Yesterday a Meeting of Shareholders was held at the George
and Vulture Tavern .Cornhill, pursuant to advertisement. P.
ANNICH(NI,Esq. (fate a Director) was called to the Chair. In
opening the business of the Meeting, he begged to read several
letters which had been received on the subject. The first was
one from Lord Teignham, in reply to a communication made
by the Chairman, wherein his Lordship's attention was called
to the expediency of coming to some explanation on the estate
of their atlitirs. Lord Teignirun admitted the responsibility
of the Directors for the sums they had received at the Share.
holder's hands but up to the present moment no further sails-
faction could be obtained through any channel. Ills Lordship,
i.conclusion, denied any knowledge of the concerns of the
Company, recommended the Shareholders to divide the
money now remaining in the banker's hands ,amongst them,
as the capital subscribed could be of no avail in the prose-
cution of so rash a scheme. Several Gentleman -complained
of no further explanation having been obtained—one nt
the Shareholders proposed an application to the Directors for
information on the subject; and if they did not think fit to
come forward, and lay an account before a General Meeting of
the Shareholders, then other steps might be taken fore recovery
of their deposits. Some desultory conversation then took place
as to the best mode to be adopted ; and a resolution was finally
carried for an application bemg made to bord:Teignham and
the Directors, for the dissolution of the Company and return of
the deposits.

Wednesday and yesterday, a number of work-
men were employed in pulling down the wall „t
the top of Constitution Hill, enclosing the garden
at the back of the new Palace, building for the
King, in St. James's Park. The object of pull-
ing down the end of the wall is to make n new
avenue back entrance throUgh the pleasure 'grounds.
To prevent intruders among the grounds, a
barrier was erected.

The KING of Muir/cc met with a slight acci-
dent on Sunday, hut without experiencing any in-
jury. As he was passing through the Elysian-
fields, on his way back from St. Germain, the
fore wheels of his carriage separated from the
hind ones, and he was obliged to go into one be-
longing to his suile, which he did,
44 we are told,
with his usual sangfrdid and gaiety."
The following merchants of Liverpool have
been proposed to the Rank, as a committee for superintending
the advances made in that
towns Messrs. J. A. Case ; T. Flet-
cher ;D. liodgoon ; Gladstone ; Lister Erns.
SIR WALTER SCOTT.---It is true, as stated in
our last, that neither. the Duke of -BUCCLEUGH
nor his trustees have interfered in the pecuniary
affairs of Sir WALTER SCOTT ; bat we have since
learned, on the best authority, that we were mis-
taken in stating that Sir WALTER is a trustee.---
