Financial and Commercial.
The Banks of France and England have simulta-
neousy raised the rates of discount TO six per cent
the former from FIVE, the latter from five and half
which were respectively the previous rates. The
Bank of England lost further sum in SPECIE
amounting to e5S6, 800 sterling in the week ending
18th October. The absence of arrivals OF gold from
Australia, whence ships over due, having &C
cording to advices from one TO one and half mil
lion pounds sterling OF gold on board, has caused
great disappointment.
The further advance in the rates of interest by
the two banks is viewed as a conservative measure,
and though some excitement has been caused, lead
ing TO caution and restriction in mercantile opera
tons neither dissatisfaction alarm has been &C.
casioned. There appears a total abstinence of
commercial distrust There is no diminution in the
consumption Of cotton. For the week of present

ed. at full previous prices. The principal part OF
these saes namely, 49, 900 bales, were TO the trade
for consumption. portion of the sales were
made at Id. advance, but the market lost this as
soon as it was known that the Bank of England had
raised its rate to six per cent In breadstufs there

markets-4a6d. on wheat, lSa25d. per barrel on

de6cency of at least 8, 100000 quarters OF wheat
and q like quantity of rye, which have given new
impulse to orders for grain in the English markets
The English imports of grain, therefore, are reck
on, d as good as specie, AS they furnish exchange
with France.
The price of consols have receded might be
expected from the advance in the rate OF interest
The last quotation is 81, which is decline OF Il
per cent.
We COPY the following from the Liverpool Times:
at was stated in the early part Of the week that
owing TO the pressing necessities vi the Bank oil
England the governor and deputy governor OF that
establishment had asked the Chancellor OF the Bx-
chequer to allow temporary relaxation OF the
clause of the bank charter act, which restricted
their issue of notes. in order it beved to issue
two millions of notes upon the government securl-
ties at present in hand, in which csse they would
not REQUIRE to resort to advance, in the rate OF
discount The Chancellor of the Exchequer, how
ever did not deem the pressure sufficient to justify
such an innovation of the bank charter"

Punishment of the Crown Prince.
A letter from Copenhagen states that "the King,
on the refusal of the hereditary Prince to sign the
new constitution, gave him certain period to think
the matter over and it was till after the Prince,
on the expiration of that period, had repeated his
refusal that his Majesty removed him from the com.
mand Of Zealand and other Danish isles, as well as
of the army"
The Independence Beige says: "The news of the
9th, received from Copenhagen at Hamburg, says
the royal determination to remove Prince Ferdinand
from the command of the Danish army was likely
TO assume a still more serious aspect Nothing less
was spoken of than the Punishment Of the Prince
from the capital so long he should persist in the
refusal to sign the constitution. IL was said that the
fortified town of Frederick would be assigned as
his place Of Punishment.
"A similar punishment was inflicted in lS43 on
the present King by his late father Christian VIlI
10 consequence of serious differences arising be-
tween the heir to the throne and his second wife,
Princess Caroline of Mecklenburg- Strelitz, whom
he had married on the 10th of June, ls4l. II Was

has rallied around it the Democratic party, which
was evidently beginning to abandon it in both the
Danish Chambers.
