NEW York, November 8. A special meet
ing ofthe Health Commissioners was held at
noon to-day, IN consequence Of the reported
presence OF cholera.
The committee appointed at the last meet
ing to draft memorial petitioning the Gen.
eral Government for the use Of the lands a.
Sandy Hook for quarantine, represent the
necessity Of O rigid quarantine in several
portions Of the country, to guard against the
introduction of cholera, and that the author
ities Of New York are without proper place
TO establish quarantine to meet tho antici-
pated emergency. .. .A
In this dilemma, they earnestly request
the General Government to grant for tenn
porary quarantine grounds so much Of the
land as may be necessary, now owned by the
Government, at Sandy Hook, in the lower
bay. l y" o..
The memorial was adopted, and Drs. Ssyro,
Anderson, and the Mayor Of Cleveland were
appointed committee to proceed to Wash
ington and lay the matter before the Gov
ernment.
New YoRK Nov. 4.-The steamship Eu-
rope, from Hayre, is still detained at the
lower quarantine. Surgeon Burdett states
all are well on board, and that they stated
no cases Of cholera were known In Hayre
prior to the sailing Of the Europe. She
stopped at Brest but three hours, which port
is represented as being In perfectly clear
health. Most of her passengers are from
Paris. Bishop Lynch, of Charleston, states
tho cholera prevailed In Paris, but not rs an
epidemic. He also stated that many Parisians
now 20 to Liverpool and take passage for
America. They have no difficulty in so
doing

The British Spectators In tho Slave
holders Rebellion.

An adjourned meeting Of the holders Of the
Confederate loan was held in London on the
18th, for the purpose Of receiving report
from the committee appointed on tho 4th Of
September last. Admiral Sir Provo Wallis
occupied the chair. Mr.. J. M. Chamberlain
submitted the report, which was designed to
inform the bondholders Of the steps which
had been taken to place their interests on
firm and legal basis. In the course Of q long
correspondence with various parties, the
committee ascei tanned from Messrs. Schroeder
4 Co. that the amount Of bonds in circula-
tion at present was f2, 1850
The committee had thought It their duty
to ascertain precisely the legal status Of the
bond-holders, and therefore had submitted q
case to Mr.. Fleming, Queens Counsel, and q
report of The United States versus Priolean
Mr.. Fleming was requested to consider the
rights and liabilities Of the contractor and
agents OF the loan, and whether any, and
what, means could be adopted to force them
to disclose what funds, If any, they had in
hand belonging to the late Government, and
to compel their application in part liquida-
ton of the claims Of the bond-holders. Mr..
Fleming gave q long and elaborate opinion,
in which he enters fully into the doctrine Of
State rights, and argues that if the Confsd-
crate States had not lost their existence as
independent States before the contraction Of
the loan, and he thinks not, there Is no
ground on which the original. validity can be
called into question.
If his view is correct, then the United
States has taken the property Of the confed-
crate States subject to the charge Of the
loan, and that which has become the prop
erty Of the United States continues liable to
the charge. He has no doubt that If the
contractor has any property or funds for
warded by the confederate government to
meet any liabilities on account OF the loan,
that the contractor is liable to the contrib
utors, and that it would be prudent to file q
bill in equity against the contractor.
On this opinion the committee remark that
the opinion Of Mr.. Fleming on the case leaves
no doubt that, sooner or later, either the
United States or the States which formed
the Confederation will recognize and pay
the loan. After some desultory conversation
the report was received but not adopted, and
tho meeting stands adjourned until the 18th
January next.

FINANCIAL AFFAIRs.--In New York, yes
terday, gold continued firm through the day,
closing at p m. at 1885, but if the telegraph
reports correctly it has black eye to-day
selling at 146. The break down we ascribe
to tho effect of the last statement Of the pub
lie dobt, the absence Of an export demand,
and the current rumor that the Treasury
Department proposes to part with portion
of its hoard. The course of the market shows
how the Herald has lost influence. A week
since It produced considerable excitement,
and somebody made somo money on one of
its sensation dispatches. Now, its stories
have no effect whatever in financial circles
On the street it is reported that large bust
ness is done in mercantile paper, at very full
rates. Occasionally, very prime short date
is taken at seven per cent, but large
amount generally ranked AL has to pay
eight per cent, and sometimes Gal per cent.
Second class names range at 1Oa15 per cent.
On call, the ruling rate is per cent.
For foreign exchange the demand is light
Bankers sixty day sterling bills are quoted
at 1881 to 100, and cotton bills at 1919 to
l0S. The supply Of cotton bills on the mar
ket is in excess Of the demand.
The share market is weaker.

Gates the act of the confederate congress $50
called under which they were issued, and
the circulars of the (so-called) confederate

more than bills of sale of given quantity of
cotton, which the sellers agreed to hold for
account of the purchasers until the latter
should order it to be shipped through the

made from party who had the right to sell i?

THE EUROPEAN News. The London Times
discusses the Premiership, and goes for Mr..
GLADSTONE, who, it says, cannot be expected
TO serve under Lord GRANVILLE; and though
he might well afford to accept ofhce under
Lord RUSSELL or Lord CLARENDON, yet the
appointment of either would be held to imply
a distrust of his capacity for the highest
office Of the State. OF Lord RUSSELL it OBJ
serves that he has already been Premier
nearly six years. he is we'll along in life, and
should give way gracefully to younger COM
petitor. Lord CLARENDON 1t deems quite
out of the question, on account of his want of
sympathy with the people. The Daily NcroS
makes feeble attempt to induce Mr.. GLAD
STONE to postpone his ambition, and to con-
tinue to play second fiddle. 1t says;
1--WE cannot for a moment admit that the
appointment Of Earl Russell to the Premier
ship would in the least imply doubt If the
fitness Of Mr.. Gladstone. TheVe Is no liberal
government possible without Mr.. Gladstone,
and in any liberal cabinet Mr.. Gladstone
would enjoy an authority second to none.
There may be question which of the Earls
shall lead the House of Peers, but there is no
question as TO who shall lead tho House of
Commons. There is no reason why Earl
Russell and Mr.. Gladstone should not work
harmoniously together, the one representing
the highest authority Of tho Government, In
the Lords, and the other doing the like in
the Commons
The Paris Pre''s takes this very sensible
view Of affairs 81
1.-THE old policy oS England will be in.
TERED in Lord Palmarston's tomb, and the
hour of democracy will soon strike in liberal
England. The statesman who would succeed
to the heritage Of Lord Palmerston must have
the courage to become the Robert Peel Of

1t appears that death came somewhat sud-
denly upon the veteran statesman. Of his
last hours the London Telegraph says:
" His state of mind up to the last re-
mained unclouded; he was in full possession
Of his faculties, and suffered very little pain.
But there came q lassitude over him which
prevented any effort or wish to converse;
questions put to him were either disregarded
or answered by look or sign. A silence,
half imposed by weariness, half of his own
inclination, possessed him. On the day be-

full demise crowned the long and serene health

Aickered little, like an expiring lamp and
then went out rather than died : and they

for fifty years, ceased to be among the living
