It is very generally believed that all the heavy
Bear accounts which were carried over from the July
account have been bought in; consequently, that as
this account now stands, it is the reverse of the last.
But if it is true that several of the Bankers have com-
bined to make further purchases, and call for the
Stock at the settling day, the bad effect of a heavy
Bull account will in a great degree be counteracted.

The decision of the Bank upon the question of
taking in the Omnium will be known to-morrow, but
is of no importance whatever as a matter of Finance,
yet, if the decision is in favour of the Petition, the
Probable effect upon the public mind will be to cause
some rise in the Funds.

VA have received to-day the following letter horn
Sto, kport, written on the evening of Monday.—Our
Readers will observe with pleasure, that although
e..e ball had not been then extracted, Mr. Bittot found
timsell much easier than at any time since the shock-
it.g occurrence whit:lt/las put his life in such immi-
nent danger:

" STOCKPORT, MONDAY EViNING.

The life of poor Birch is still in jeopardy. The
Surgeons have not yet found it practicable to extract
the ball. lam happy however to learn that he suf-
fers less pain than he did, and feels on the whole
much easier. Ile has been a very active and zealous
servant of the public, and has a wife .and numerous
young family dependent on his fate. • '
c, I have not heard that any definite discovery has'
been yet made as to the person who fired the ball,
er those who were with him. Several persons have
been examined. .The situation of Bumf, whom it
might be dangerous to trouble with inquiries at pre-
sent, is necessarily a great hindrance in the way of
discovery.— Mr. HARRISON expresses himself in the
most grateful terms for the manner in which Mr.
BIRCH behaved to him in the way down, nor does
any man, I believe, more sincerely lament the fate
which has befallen him.

The people hereliad expected the arrival of Mr.
II taarsos as early as Thursday evening, and were
collected in great numbers in the streets to greet him.
An empty chaise happening to pass through, some
one raised the cry that it was the chaise which had
`brought Mr. Hanatsort, and that Britoil had alight-
ed with Ids prisoner at the outskirts of the town. The
snob immediately fell with a blind fury upon the
chaise, and in a few minutes completely demolished
it. The driver happily escaped tmhart.
Mr. FIAIMISON was prething Mt the streets here
yesterday evening, and was listened to with the most
seemingly devout attention by a crowd of heacess.
gg I understand that Parr, the pensioner, who'-has
been figuring away at th.,. late Meetings, and against
whom a warrint has been for some uxa out, cm
a charge of sedition, has been got hold of, and coma
