" THE SPHYNXe" which is published every Saturday
Evening, will continue, as usual, to be devoted chiefly to
the Politics and Miscellaneous Intelligence of a Weekly
Newspaper; and "THE ORIENTAL HERALD," which
is pablished Alorthly, to furnishing the latest and most
accurate information on the Affairs of India generally, and
especially as to the opening prospects of a more extended
Commerce with the various Countries of the East.

A T a MEETING of COUNTR Y
-1 1 BANKERS, held at the Old London Tavern,
Biekepegate-street, THIS DAY
Sir JOHN WROTTTESLEY, Bart. M.P. in the Chair.
Resolved Unanimously,
That this meeting disclaim every sentiment of hostility
to the Bank of England, upon its original principles, being
firmly persuaded that the Bank of England, and the vari-
ous other banking establishments of the kingdom, have
together long been found to promote the interests of the
public, and to afford a salutary cheek upon each other.
That the late measures of the Bank of England, in the
establishment of branch banks, have the evident tendency
to subvert the general banking system that has long
existed throughout the country, and which has grown up
with and been adapted to the wants and conveniences of
the publis.

This it can In distinctly proved that the prosperity of
trade, the support of agriculture, the increase of general
improvement, and the productiveness of the national re
venue, are intimately connected with the existing system of
banking.

Thai the country bankers would not complain of rival
establishments founded upon equal terms ; but they do
complain of beitg required to compete with a great com-
pany possessing a monopoly and exclusive privileges.
That should this great corporation, conducted by direc-
tors who are not personally responsible, succeed by the
means of these exclusive advantages in their apparent object
of supplanting the.existing banking establishments, they will
thereby be rendered masters of the circulation of the coun-
try, which they will be enabled to contract or to expand,
according t/..1 their own will ; and thus be armed with a
tremendous power and influence, dangerous to the stability
of property, and to the independence of the country.
That a deputation be appointed to request an interview
with Lord Viscount Goderich and the Chancellor of the
Exchequer, to present the above resolutions, to offer any
explanation which the practise and experience of the depu-
tation may enable them to afford, and to urge Lord Vis-
count Goderich, and the Chancellor of the Exchequer,
to take their case into consideration, and grant such
relief as may be just to the country bankers and bene-
ficial to the public.
That the Deputalon do consist of
Sir J. WROTTESLEY, Bart. M.P.
W. BECKETT, Esq. of Leeds,
J. S. HARFORD, Esq. of Bristol,
DEANE JOHN PARKER, Esq. of Centerbn.y.
R. SPOONER, Esq. of Birmingham,
P. M. JAMES, Esq. of Birmingham, and
W. D. CREWDSON, Esq. of Kendal.
Tbat the Select Committee appointed at the last Meeting,
be requested to continue their Sediees.

That this Meeting do adjourn to Monday next, then to
assemble at one o'clock, at the same place.
JOHN WROTTESLEY, Chairman.,
