General attention his been excited to the return under
the new Bank Charter Bank Act, of the position of the
Bank of England, and which from its interest we give
under this head, although, from the new arrangement,
it will not allow of our making the ordinary compari-
son. The immense circulation of the Bank, the return
being for a week only, is now more clearly shown, and
is within 10,000,000/. of the whole amount of notes is-
sued in the month ending 17th ult., by all the Banks of
the kingdom. The total stock of bullion is rather over
15,000,0001, bu this, it will be seen, is divided.now be
tween the issue and banking departments. The parti•
culars are as follows :
