Bank Of the United States.-A very
numerous meeting of the stockholders
of the Bank Of the United States was
held at the Banking House this morning.
Rufus King, Esq. of New-York, was
called to the chair, and Joseph Gales, jr.
of the city of Washington, was appointed
secretary. The only resolution which
we hear Of being adopted was for the
purpose of authorizing the Chairman to
appoint committee to examine into the
situation of the institution, and to report
to the stockholders as speedily as posi-
| Bile. .
We understand that the business Of the
meeting was opened by Mr.. Cheves,
president of the Bank, in an impressive
and interesting speech, when he closed
by requesting thatthe stockholders would
select from their body a committee OF
gentlemen to inquire into the situation
and conduct of the Bank, and assuring
them, that every Information would be
cheerfully and promptly afforded by the
various officers of the institution.
After short interval, the chairman
named the following gentlemen to COM
pose the committee: Mr.. Drayton and
Mr.. Kohme, of S. Carolina; Mr.. Cum
ming, of Georgia; Mr.. Fitzhugh and
Mr.. Haxall, Of Virginia; Mr.. Worthing-
ton, Of Ohio; Mr.. Brown, of Maryland
Mr.. Riddle, of Delaware; Mr.. Butler,
Mr.. TiIghman, Mr.. Willing, Mr.. Beck,
and Mr.. Girard, of Pennsylvania MIR.
Bayard, Mr.. Oracle, and Mr.. Bronson,
of New-York; Mr.. Parsons, of Con-
necticut; Mr. D'Wolf, of Rhode-Island
Mr.. Crownimhield, Mr.. Sears, and Mr..

On motion of Mr. Fitzhugh, of Vir-
ginia, the melting adjourned to convene

pointed secretary to the committee.

LATEST FROM ENGLAND.

The Boston correspondent of the Com
mercial Advertiser has forwarded to the
editor a London paper of October I'd,
which is the latest received from Eng
land. The following is summary of
its contents.
The election for Lord Mayor in Lon
don had been warmly contested for three
days-the candidates were Bridges,
Thorpe, and Wood. Bridges it appear
ed was the popular candidate. The cleo
ton had not finished. Rear Admiralt the
Hon. H. Blackwood has been appointed
commander in chief in the East Indies,
and commodore sir Thomas Hardy on
the coast of South America, vice sir Ri
chard King and commodore Bowles, who
are to return home. The royal ordi-
nance in France Of August Sd, 1915,
suspending the importation of grain, has
been repealed. A new constitution for
the kingdom of Wurtemburgh had been
adopted by the royal commissioners and
assembly of the states. The ex-queen
of Spain is coming to the United States
next spring to join her husband, Joseph
Bonaparte. The emperor of Russia is
to be crowned king of Poland in October.
The ship Paragon, an East Indiaman,
was lost on the oath March last all the
passengers and crew were saved, except
Lascar, who refused to quit the wreck /;
the vessel and cargo sunk. The crops
of grain are very abundant throughout
Europe the present season. a terrible
storm took place at Parma on the 10th
September, and the harvest of maize and
wine all lost. Baron Bulow, charge d'af-
fairs of H. M. the king of Prussia, can
celled and deposited in the Bank Of Eng
land lst Oct. 1880 pounds sterling in
special bonds of the Prussian loan, ne
gociated by Mr.. M. M. Rothschild, in
London, being the other half of the sum
fixed for the redemption Of bonds in the
first year, and also the saving of the in
terest on $4,000 pounds redeemed on the
first of April last. Several Jewish ia
miles are stated to have left Europe
in consequence of late prosecutions, and
intend to come to America. A confer
euce is to be held at Carlsbad, who are

LONDON, SEPT. 81

LONDON, SEPT. o.
We have received TINS morning Dutch
and Hamburger mails, the former bring
ing papers to the 25th, and the latter to
2lst inst. They confirm the news of
prince Butchers death, in the fulness of
years and of glory. He expired on the
10th inst. at his seat of Kribluwitz, in
S1lesia. The king of Prussia immedi-
ately received the melancholy intelli-
gence, and gave orders that the army
should put on mourning for 8 days, and
despatched count Butcher of w ahlstatt,
the grandson of the departed hero, with
a kind letter of coincidence to the dowager
princess.
The most dreadful excuses are still
committed against the Jews. In some
places attempts have been made to set
their houses on fire, and from time to
time placards are posted up, in which
the people are exhorted to massacre all
the Isrealites tt-
Intelligence from Copenhagen, dated
the 10Th instant, states, that second riot
against the Jews had taken place in that
city, of so violent character that the mi
litary were ordered to fire upon the riot
ers, in consequence of which several had
been killed and many wounded.
VIENNA, AUG. l3.
His majesty, the emperor of Austria,

has granted him 10000 ducats to defray
the expenses of his journey, and 5000
for his salary. His excelency has faith
fully fulfilled the places of commissary
of the treasury and contractor general
for the army, during the space of eigh-
teen years. The baron will have the
charge of the maritime affairs between
the United States and Italy. His excel
lency took the oaths, yesterday, Of
fidelity, previous to his embarkation,
which will Immediately take place, with
his family and suite at Trieste, for Phila-
delphia.

| Mr.. Goblet has been invited to re-
turn to this country. 1t is positively
stated, that two of his chief creditors
have offered to allow him 6ook year
provided that he would publish his pa
per for their advantage, and allow them
to receive the profits of it till their
claims amounting to 10000. are dis
charging. Mr.. Goblet we understand,
has accepted these conditions, and is
soon expected in this country.

A meeting has been called by the
mayor of Norwich, in consequence of a
requisition Of the principal inhabitants
of that city, to take into consideration
the late disastrous transactions at Man
chester.
1t is said that our ships of war on the
peace establishment are in future to shift
their stations, SO as not to remain more
than year on one station. Thus, if
they begin in the Channel, they are to
serve one year in the West-Indies, and
one year at St. Helena; or one year in
the Mediterranean, and one year in
South America. BY this regulation, our
officers and seamen will be more Injured
to the different climates, and obtain a
more, perfect knowledge of maritime
geography.
A letter, dated Ingouville, (near
HavreD Aug. %, 1919. says" The
vintage of this year will be SO productive
throughout France, that an immediate
deduction of so per cent. in the price of
wines is expected; but the heavy rains
in July so completely laid the corn, that
the wheat will not average more than
so ID. the Winchester bushel, in any of
the provinces"
.Shanish Erhedition.-The departure
of the expedition, the preparations for
which have for long time cost 4,oOO,-
900 of francs per month, is thing no
longer to be thought of. Letters from
Andalusia state, that the troops are
marched off in haste towards Estrama-
dura. Such is the obstinate determine
ton to commit to the waves a multitude
of unfortunate beings, that it is still
hoped to re-organize this armament, al
ready perhaps afflicted with the plague,
in the Port Of Lisbon, if the Portuguese
consent!
PARIS, SEPT. 9.
The following intelligence has been
received from Altoona, under date of st
ult.-" The recruits in our Duchies and
in Denmark have suddenly received or
ders to join their respective regiments,
which excites conjectures SO much the
more important, as it is reported that
revolutionary and bloody scenes have
taken place in,Sweden."
