THE BANK OF MANCHESTER.
(From the Manchester Guardian.)
We are exceedingly glad to learn that, owing to the
considerate forbearance of the London agents of this
Bank, and an exceedingly liberal advance from the
Liverpool and Manchester District Bank, the Direc-
tors have been enabled to effect an arrangement for
promptly meeting all the demands that can be made
upon the bank in the ordinary course of business, and
that the calamities arising from its present situation •
are not likely to be increased by any failure in the re-
payment of deposits, or in providing for current bills.
Under this arrangement the depositors receive their
money whenever they apply for it. The District
Bank, we hear, has also adopted most of the current
accounts of the Bank of Manchester, so that it is un-
derstood no interruption will take place in the trans-
actions of business, and the customers of the latter
bank will receive their usual accommodation. An"
absurd report has been current for a day or two
that Mr. Burdekin, the late manager, is absent with
the connivance of the Directors ; that he is still in
England ; and that his place of concealment is known.
We are informed, on the best authority, that gr.
Burdekin sailed in the Britannia on Tuesday,
the
4th inst. ; a friend of ours having seen him, and spoken
to him on board the Redwing tender, which con-
veyed the letter bags and passengers from the pier.
With regard to the call of 2/. per share, however un-
pleasant and inconvenient it may be, it is obvious that. •
the Shareholders must comply with it; and, highlY.:
as we blame the Directors for having suffered the.
Bank to get into its present deplorable state, we must
say, that, by the course they have now taken, they
will prevent the most diSastrous consequences to in'
•
dividual Shareholders. They will also have an oppor-
tunity of realising the assets of the Bank, of whatever
kind, in more favourable times; thus affording a rel ;.
sonable expectation of repaying to the Shareholders,
not only the amount of this call, but also, should an
improvement in trade take place, a further sum, which,
it is hoped, may arise from the increased value of their
property.

(From the Liverpool Courier.)
The rather premature explosion of the affairs of
this bank, produced mainly by the absconding of its
late manager, Mr. Burdekin, caused nearly as much
consternation on 'Change, when it became known en
Saturday, as though a few bomb shells had been
thrown into the town by a hostile army. The public
was quite prepared to hear the most disastrous things
after the meeting of the Proprietors, which is to take
place on Friday, so far at least as to hear that all the
capital had been squandered on worthless parties
the shape of loans, even to the amount of the capitt"
(780,0001.), but the absconding of Mr. Burdekin was
indeed an event for which the public was quite unpre-
pared, especially with a large amount of funds surrer
titiously obtained from the bank, and that indepen-
dent of Mr. Burdekin's previously owing 17,0001. to'
the concern, caused by his dabbling in shares, f°,l.
which the establishment found money, and for
the only thing it holds are the now worthless share°
of the institution.
Before the disclosure became public, the Direetoff
and present Manager, Mr. W. Smith, had most Pd'
ciously made arrangements with their London agevtli
Dennison and Co., and the Manchester and Liverpool
District Bank, from whom such assistance had been
obtained as to enable the bank to meet promptly, eve/
possible claim that could be made ; and on Saturcie)4'
as might be expected, the bank was thronged with
applicants, but all demands were met; indeed, no
ever seemed to doubt that such would be the case,
when the very numerous and respectable shareholders
of the bank were so well known.
Many of the accounts will no doubt be transferred
to the District Bank. Many persons will, it is well
known, be unable to pay the new call of 21., 111
and to .0_
such parties ruin must be the consequence, should the
paid up capital eventually be found insufficient
cover the losses already incurred. There are many
Shareholders who hold from 500 to 3,000 shares, 0.,
many of these large proprietors are original ones, ni`
which 101. has been paid.—Liverpool Courier.
