SOJ.,EM QV'S DICERS PAGSUM

LONDON,
IVRDNESPAY EVENING, JANUARY 25, 1026.

Comparing the advices from different parts of
the Continent, we ure led to the conclusion, that
the succession of the Emperor NICUOLAS is
110 W confirmed, beyond any possibility of im-
mediate opposition. It is evident that there
is in the character of CONSTANTINE, Certain fea..
tunes, which are obnoxious to those who hold pa-
ramuumt influence in the Councils of Russia,
and as NicnorAs has avowed his resolution
to pursue the policy of Ar.ExANnsn, there can be
no reasonable ground of suspicion, that he will
be less Jinni:), seated on his Throne. By a singu-
lar fatality, the policy of Turkey appears to
have undergone a decided alteration, since the
death of ALEXAXDER. There, nevertheless, is
no sufficient reason for assuming, that the views
of the Divan had not led them to decide upon
this course, previouslyto the detnise of ALEXANDER.
It will be seen by the following communication
from Vienna, that the meditated negotiation be-
tween the Turks and Greeks, gives some uneasi-
nese in that Capital. 'We cannot. however,
Ire the slightest, ground, for assuming the
existence of the facts on which the jealous ap-
prehensions of the Court of Vienna might seem
to be founded :

C 4 VIENNA, Diic. 11.—The news of the sending
of Turkish Plenipotentiaries to the Morea has
Caused great sensation here. A letter from Con-
stantinople, which we received by the last mail
from Bucharest, affirms thnt the representations
(..4 some foreign Ambassadors have induced the
Porte to send negotiators to the head quarters of
Ibrahim Paella, to treat with the Greek Chiefs
for rt suspension, or rather a cessation, hostilities.
Ilia other accounts from more authentic sources
allirm, that the foreign Ministers alone could
!lever have induced the Porte to take such a step;
It must be attributed to the representations of
Ibrahim Pacha, and his father. It is affirmed that
Vie Porte, which some time ago guaranteed to
Ibrahim Pacha the general government of Greece,
It Willing to confine itself to the military posses.
11011 of the fortresses, and to give to each of the
"reek provinces a Lieutenant-Governor, chosen
among the inhabitants, leaving those functionaries
dependent on Ibrahim Pacha. 'Those places will
b. conferred on principal Greek Chiefs, if they
readily submit. There is a great deal said about
proposals already made on this subject, which it
Is affirmed, at least at Constantinople, have been
Wellreceived by some military chiefs.
`'The Russian Charge d'Affaires had received
Ho satisfactory answers to his late remonstrances,
though they were strongly supported by the
11ruisters of the other Continental Powers."

Every day brings fresh proof of the deep and
Widely diffused distress that reigns throughout
the country. Yet are there to be found in-
Alividuals who ascribe the situation of the
Maury Market—the real criterion of the state
Of commerce—altogether to panic! We have
.on the contrary, never for a moment doubt-
ed the true origin of all our embarrassments
to be founded in the impolitic and, we may add,
unjust confederacy, to depreciate the value of
money, for the specific purpose of depriving the
public coeditor of a portion of his interest. In a
subsequent column will be found, some particu-
lars, extracted from a pamphlet recently
Published, to which we would direct the
render fur a solution of the problem, were
Proof required of the correctness of our
liaws Oil this subject. In the Session
of 1814 a Bill was passed, sanctioning

the continued issue of One Pound notes by
Country Bankers. ft appears, by official
documeuts, that the evil of this species of
artificial currency had increased from 3;574,694,
tint amount of circulation in 18'10, to 4,117,341 in
1821. The act however passed into a law, and
the circulation in 1825 accumulated to the sum
8,111,190 !

COUNTRY BANKS.
he connection of the Joint Stosk Mania skids
the thoughtlesi and immoderate issues of Country
Bunks, is well illustiated in an article in' the
Times of this morning, from which the followig
is extracted :
" The spread of this mania throughout the provinces, and
the wild activity of the country hanks—not merely in specu-
lating on their own account, but in accommodating, by exces-
sive and thoughtless issues of their note; the gambling dispo-
sition of all their neighbours.
" Then came an anticipated pressure upon the Bank of Eng-
land, from the deluge of paper overflowing every where, and
from the exportation of the precious metals. The cOntraction
of the Bank discounts followed next—a measure of necessity
and obvious prudence, resorted to by the Directors for the
safety of that great establishment.
" The fall of shares In the joint stock companies, and of
prices in the raw materials of our staple manufactures, indis-
creetly forced up by speculating buyers, became the first in.
dices of a fearful re-action.
" The ruin of private speculators brought down that of many
country banks. Suspicion fell upon others, and grew into
panic; the demands upon London were universal, and were
contemporaneous with the necessity for contracting, not ex-
tending, the issues of the Bank of England. Devonshire—
Yorkshire—then the banks of the Metropolis sunk under the,
difficulties thus accumulated. Seventy country bank. stoppel
payment within six weeks. The excessive issue of country-,
paper will appear from the following statement :
IQ" The amount of country notes, estimated by the stamps ow
winch they were issued, amounted in the three years.—
1020 - A:3,574,094
. 1821 8,087,531
1822 4,217,341—X11,770,617
in the three years
1823 - X 4,657,582
11P24 - 6.930,387
1825 8,112,290—.£19,700,246.
"A progressive increase, each succeeding year, Irons 100
to 1825 inclusive. making an excess in the last year of the
series over the first of more than four millions and a half,
and an excess on the last three years of the series over the,
first three of almost eight millions sterling. It ought to be
recollected, that the Act of Parliament permitting the continu-
ance of the one-pound country bankers notes passed towards
the close of the Session of 1022, and that it was. the three
years next following which exhibited the above over-issue
of country paper. It must be also borne in mind, that the
power to overload the kingdom with suck a mischievous com-
modity proceeded from the same confederacy of the agricultural,
interest and the country banking interem, which had previously,
in 1018, thrown out Mt. Vansittart's proposition for exacting
security from country bankers, as a safeguard to the public
against the abuse of their credit."

NORTHERN POST-OFFICE ARRANGEMENTS.
Somerset-place, Jan. 20, IBM'
Dear have to acknowledge the receipt of the'nuMe-
musly and respectably signed letter which you transmitted to
me, in reference to the communication by post between certain
parts of Scotland and the town of Liverpool, accompanied by a
copy of a memorial, which had been presented to the Post,
master-General on the subject, and by Mr. Freeling's answer•
to it.

I beg to acquaint you, for the information of the parties in.
terested, that I have tbfwarded the papers to .'Jr. Freeling, with
a request that he will take an opportunity of summitting the
matter to his Lordship ; but as the new arrangement which
forms the ground of complaint is probably connected with, and
dependent on, causes which may ultimately affect the conve-
nience of other places, and as his Lordship has already deli.
berately declined to accede to the wish of the parties, I can
scarcely venture to indulge the hope that any interference in
the present state of the case will be productive of much benefit.

MELANCHOLY SHIPWRECK.
The following facts respecting the fatal wreck
of the brig, or schooner, the William. of Workington, and the
afflictive death of Captain William Elliot, are collected from
the information of a gentleman (31r. Partin) who has lately
come from Workington, and who was himself an eye.witneas
to the finding and interment of Elliot :
" During those severe gales (according to Mr. Parrin's in-
formation) which closed the last eventful year, the above-
named brig, or schooner, was totally wrecked on the Pal-
mallet shore, between Gartleston and the isle of iVhithort.—
She had sailed from Baltbriggan, near Belfast, on the lath
of the preceding month, and was then homeward-boned,
having been to Ireland with a cargo of coals. Arrived
off the point of Ayr, the wind blowing a severe gale from
W.S.W., and carrying a press of canvases to gainahe Cumber-
land coast, the ballast shifted, and the nasality down upon her
beam ends. The master and crew seeing their situation; at
once cut away the main-mast, which had the erect of righting
her; but the wind increasing to a perfect hurricane, they were
cumpelled to take in all canvass, and the brig became quite
unmanageable; she drifted along the coast, and ran ashore to
the southward of Craggleton Castle, in the Bay of Wigteuu,
at seven o'clock in the morning of the 20th of December last.
Exactly where the vessel struck h a ruggedly wild coasttvihoae
precipice is shout ninety feet high, and there is also
a cave, naturally constructed, where the bow :of the vessel
took a direct course in entering. Here the stern, together with
about half the vessel, from the terrible shock andawfist fbree
of the waves dashing against the precipice, wallittrally Severed
from the, bow and the captain, an industrious and valuable
man, was carried along with part of the vessel—to The ,no
more ! Happily three of the crew (which consisted Of fbur
men, besides the master), by clinging to the cliff of the rock,
and ascending a sort of tugged lothway, soon escaped front
destruction. The fourth man was supposed by his own 'ship-
mates to have met Captain Elliot's -disastrous t'ate : but the
poor fellow was, at length, descried by' one John Nichol, a
servant to Mr. Broadfoot, at Palmallet, while falling .from
a projecting rock, about twelve feet high„ into the water.,
and the drowning man was washed hack ,upon the 'shelv-
ing rock he had recently been hurled r from. Owing to
the humane exertions of the servants of %fr. Broadfoot and Mr.
lianway, of Cruggleton, was reached most miractilotthly
from Inv perilous post, and taken to the farm house at,Prilasel-
let, where, by medical aid promptly rendered, he was remitted
toscciery.

" The vessel had on board about 1001. in sliver, of wlrick
45/. were picked up (such was the honesty of even the children
on this coast) scattered up and down the shore, near the very
spot where the vessel struck. The IntneValeat Earl of Gal.
loway, the menieet he was apprised Of thii fatal wreck, gave
orders I,:r his work.people and horses to render their amitotic*
in saving the wreck, yet little has been picked up, except ,the
silver, as everypiece of wood remaining was aliust broken up.
" Captain 111'Nerrie, Royal Navy, and' ..lase ph llayton.
master of the brig Donegal, of 'Workington, and the latter of
whom happened to have been an old shipmate of poor Elliot'4.
were most attentive in giving all the aid in their power; at d
Ilreindfooem humanity and kind monitions to tt i-ship.
wrecked sufferers+ were beyond all ,
" It was nut until the 9th inst. that the body of Ctoptain
Elliot was /band, &bong three miles team the -herbed of
Garlleatown,' on the rock, when the title Wee having 'turn to
float. Only one half,erown. was found, upon secumt, sn
the waistband of his trousers, but indented by the rocks, and
the right thigh was absolutely torn i,way ,ttran the body.
The latter wits altogether so mutilated that it seemed uu:kaoger
to retain an entire bone. Gentlemen front afar aril ft !at' 1,.
tended the funeral, which took place on the day fellowitg. It
was an utrecting scene, and it drew unfeigned tears (roily every
eye.
" Captain Elliot has left behind t, widow and four children,
to lament their irreparable bereavement."

THE LONDON J,OUftNALS.
DAILY
RTfraPta front Me Morning Papers, Jan. 25, 1826.

Discussions of a very important nature are Ulla
4.41440 to be in progress betweee Ministers and
the Mink, Directors, to the issue of 'which an in.
tense interest is attached by the leaders of the
money.inaiket, who conceive, whether justly or
oesy,ittr prosperity to depend on the good under.
811'400 those personages maintain with each
other.
.The .in debete are supposed to
relate chiefly to the amendments of which the
banking System is susceptible, consistently with
the preservation of the Bank Charter in its full
iutegrity ; or, if the privileges of the. Bank are
itr arty manner infringed, how far that body is, in
such a case, entitled to compensation. It may
tae safely affirmed, we believe, that there does
110( exist, the cordiality which has been apparent
is former times between the parties in this tlis.
zufMon, and that it has therefore been long pro.
trasted,, without any prospect of arriving,at a
speedy termination. Another meeting takes place
on the subject in the course of the present week.
What seems to be wanted to place the matter in
a train for beneficial arrangement, is a disposition
on the part of Ministers to think as seriously
as the Bank Directors do of the,late and present
dibssesses of the city. While they regard them
aq trivial .matter, and of limited duration, which
is an impression, we believe, directlY,opposite to
that of the Bank Directors, no good' its likely to
be accomplished. So sensitive is the money
market on the subject of this negociation, that

will be no relief to the scarcity of stock, and it
must in that case, like every other commodity,

the full effects of the crisis lately felt with so much
yiolence among the hankers are spreading into the
mercantile circles, w here,owing tothe late failures
of most respectable houses, confidence seems,
