We regret to hear that Sir John Pechell still re-
mains in a very precarious state. The Hon Lady Pechell
docs not leave the house, and the Duke and Duchess of Nor-
tblk are constantly in attendance upon their near relatives.
.BANK OF ENGLAND.—Wednesday a Special Court
of the Proprietors of Bank Stock was held by adjournment,
for the election of 24 Directors to serve for the year ensiling.
Mr. John Cotton, the Governor, at the usual hour, took the
president's place, and the ballot in due course was com-
menced. At four o'clock the balloting-glasses were closed,
and soon afterwards the scrutineers reported the names in
the house list (all but one as advertised having 98 votes, the
other having 97 votes) to have been elected as Directors.
Mr. John Cook, nominated as a Director, having but one
vote, was declared not to be elected. The minutes having
been read, the Court adjourned.
