as large as life, which, he feels no hesitation in asserting, has
not only been the admiration of thousands, but is confident
as regards splendour of decoration, correctness, fidelity, and
- character, are superior to any in the United Kingdom.

represent the Characters moving and acting in a manner that
it is almost impossible to distinguish them from REAL LIFE!
• " J. S., at the same time, deems it requisite to acquaint th.
Public that, for some time past, various disgraceful Exhibi-
a tions have been travelling, pretending to be Figures of Dis•
tinguished Individuals, neither like them in personnor cos-

Artist of some years' standing, he is desirous to redeem the

bition worthy of their patronage, not fearing competition or

TO CORRESPONDENTS

Had " A late member of St. David's Church" authen
ticated his letter by his name, we would have inserted hi
letter with pleasure.

A correspondent informs us that this evening and to-morrov
the Rev. Cecil Wray will preach sermons in St. Martin':
Church on the Education question, and he recommend
other clergymen to follow the example.
In our report of the proceedings of the Scotch Synod las
week, we stated that the old chapel of Mr. Graham woul,
contain 100 persons and his new one 500, whereas it cugh
to have been 500 in the old, and between 900 and 1000 ii
the new one.

The deep and painful interest manifested by all classes of
ter Majesty's subjects, during Thursday, as to the serious
indisposition of His Royal Highness the Duke of Sussex,
was, towards evening, greatly increased by the certainty withl
which an opinion was expressed, by persons having opportu-
nities of obtaining accurate information, that it was impos-
sible for his royal highness to survive niany hours ; and, from
a very early hour on Friday morning, the avenue leading to,
Kensington Palace was thronged by respectable persons,
Anxious to obtain the slightest information on the subject.
On Thursday night, after the issue of the second bulletin,
Mr. Copeland quitted the palace for town, Dr. Holland and
Dr. Chambers, with Mr. Savory, remaing with their royal
patient. Shortly after nine o'clock his Royal Highness the
Duke of Cambridge returned to Kensington Palace, and re- . •
mained there during the night. A little before midnight, at c,
which late hour numerous persons were still waiting about',4

last few years of monetary disaster; if the Norther
and Central exposure, the Bank of Manchester expo.
sure, and others of a like character, have not demon
strated the inherent rottenness and danger of such in
stitutions ; the case of the Commercial Bank, as laic
bare by the evidence in the cause " Taylor v. Ashtor
and others," tried at our late assizes, will surely afforc
sufficient confirmation of our views to satisfy the mos
sanguine admirern of the system of their correctness.
Let us briefly glance at the facts as they were- brough,
before the jury, respecting the formation and the ma-
nagement of this concern.
The Commercial Bank was originated in the yeat
1834, and was one of the projections of a Mr. Josepl
Macardy, of Manchester, a gentleman somewhat
famous for his abilities in this line. The scheme
was that the capital should consist of 100,000 share:
of £5 each, all paid up, five directors, with Macardy
forming a provisional committee, with powers to alto'
the shares and to control the operations of the concert
for three years. The first step of this self-appointec
provisional committee was to allot to themselves, it
addition to their quota of 200 shares each, 1500 shares
each, and to Macardy 2000, on what was termed
cash credit ; the operation of which arrangement vat.
that these gentlemen would pay three per cent. interest
upon the capital represented by their 1500 shares, anc
receive the 7 or 8 per cent, which might be paid ae.,
dividend out of the profits, or what they might choosey
to call profits. The bank, thus established, commenced
business at the close of 1834 ; numerous branches,
were established, with the usual expensive staff of ma-I
nagers, clerks, &c., and forthwith launched boldly intc
'a heavy business—forming a connexion, &c., which
it
with your mere private banker a work of time, and re-
quiring every possible circumspection and care, being
to such men the achievement of an hour ! We ought
to state, however, that, wherever branches were esta-
blished, local directors were also appointed, and fa-
'voured to the amount of 600 or 800 shares each, with
allotments " on cash credit" in a similar way to those
[granted to Macardy and the other concoctors of the
institution. Well, in February, 1836, when the
[bank might be considered to have just got upon
its legs, the first yearly general meeting was called; a
flourishing report of progress and profits made, and a
,dividend declared of 8 per cent !
[ Now what was the state of affairs at that period ?
What were the profits out of which this handsome
dividend was made ? Why we have it admitted by
Mr. Bower, one of the four Manchester directors pre-
viously mentioned, that the dividend in 1836 was paid
out of the capital ! In other words, the Manchester
directors, with the projector, Macardy, and the local
directors, allotted to themselves, out of the capital of
the bank, 5 per cent. (the difference between 3 and 8
per cent) upon their sham capital. But the operation
will be plainer if stated in figures ; thus—
Bower held on " cash credit" 1500 shares.
Thomas Ashton ditto 1500 do.
Thomas Slater ditto 1500 do.
Thomas Palin ditto 1500 do.
Ralph Turner ditto
1500 do.
Joseph Macardy ditto 2000 do.
making, in all, 9,500 shares held by these six clever
contrivers, besides the shares held by local directors,
managers, &c.! Well, the 9,500 shares held by these
six represent a capital of £47,500, upon which they
paid interest at the rate of 3 per cent., or £1425 0 C
They received a dividend, however, upon
this sum at the rate of 8 per cent. or

A member of the Church of Rome, having formally
nounced that persuasion, publicly received the holy commu-I
nion on Easter-morning at St. John's Church, Clerkenwell.
BRAINTREE CHURCH-RATE CASE.—The Court of Arches
has been informed that it is intended to move for a prohibi-
tion, in the Court of Queen's Bench, in the cause known as
the Braintree church-rate case.
THE CLERGY AND THE TITHE MILLION.—The claim of
'he clergy to the £lOO,OOO lent in 1836 out of the balance of,
the Tithe Million to the Board of Works, is to come imme-1
diately before parliament. The sum would have been granted
to the clergy in 1838, with the £260,000, only it was then
outstanding. Sir Robert Peel, our readers may recollect,l
pressed frequently and urgently for its issue to the clergy in
the discussions on the Tithe Regent-charge Bill of 1838, but
the government could do nothing, as the money had not been
repaid. A large portion of it is now, however, in the trea-1
sury, the balance can be easily raised, and Sir Robert Peel
can carry out his wishes of 1838. The £260,000 only yielded
a dividend in the tithe arrears of seven shillings in the pound,,
although Lord Melbourne asserted that the clergy would
receive fifteen shillings per pound at least.—Dublin paper.
THE FACTORY BlLL.—This bill, as at present worded, ex-
tends to all factories in which " cotton, wool, hair, silk, flax,
tow, hemp, or jute " are manufactured, " either separately or
mixed together ; " and Sir J. Graham has promised us that
another bill shall shortly be introduced for the protection of
children and young persons employed in lace factories and
in printing offices. The second clause in it interprets the
word " child," as " a child under 13 years of age,' and the
words "young person," as a "female person of the age of 13
years, and under the age of 21 years." It likewise states,
that any person who shall work in any factory, whether for
wages or not, or as a learner or otherwise, shall be deemed to
be employed therein within the meaning of the act. The Bth
clause provides, that " no young person shall he employed
in a factory in any one day more than 12 hours,"—the oper-
atives themselves wish to alter the provision to 10 hours,—
or, after the expiration of 12 hours from the time when
any child or young person in the factory first begins to work
in the morning, over and above the times allowed for meal
times, save in the cases hereinafter excepted." The
11th clause contains the excepted cases, and provides, that
to recover time unavoidably lost by the stoppage of machinery,
moved by water, young persons may be employed at any
time n the night, and for a period not exceeding 72 hours
during the week, provided that no young person be employed
wore than 13 within 24 consecutive hours. The 12th clause
'nacts, that " no young person shall be employed in a fact-
