Sir. Jones Loyd most judiciously and fortunately, after a couple of hours spent in wandering in directions except the right one, brought the discussion to a close by showing that the real question was that of acceptance or non acceptance of the terms proposed, and the meeting separated without 'further loss of time. Still the public have a right to complain that so little was done to assist their general judgment of Sir Robert Peel's measure, and to slow, if it had any, it weak or dangerous points. The time consequently i drawing near when the discussions of Parliament on the measure must take place, without the members being much more enlightened upon it than thev were on the first dav.

To supply in part toe omission, attention mav usefullv be directed to a letter which is annexed from a practical banker," of which indeed there is suffi dent internal cvidmce.

By means would it prove ao, Ths baaker wtth limited atnoust mht by erroneous judgment lend to speculators, and deny assistance to prudent and auVstantlal men of business. All such transactions moat depend on the judicious conduct and knowledge of lh banker. Now, as to the measure of restricting ths Issue of cooatry bankers to the average amount issued by them during the two or three last years, which If they exceed, I presume it wiu propoeea saojeci inem to a Deary peaaity tuna it would be placing tbrm in a very anxious and embarraaang situation because, if at any time (and It must constantly happen) the existing aoouat of their issues should approach nearly to their limit, it mhtbt be that with several branches, which many banks hare, they could not know at one branch what issues were bein made to or were required by customers at the others on the same day and so, without any Ln teutioa ot tranegrssing, the aggregate amount of issues at the various branches on that day might, thouch to only a small extent, exceed the limit, and aj subject them to a severe punishment for an excess which they did aot intend and could not guard against, and quite incommensurate with the trantgreasion. Whether the system of the Issue of promissory notes payable on demand, which has grown up with, and baa been always proportionate to, the wants and necessities, to the wealth, and to the commercial, agricultural, and manufac turing business, of the country, ought to be restricted and put inta letters, is a matter for most grave and serious con siileratwa by the Legislature and I moat ardently hope aa trust that every member of it, being a lover of his country and advocate of its best interests, will give his serious an 1 undivided attention to this most important business, and endeavour to make himself master of the subject, before he rives his Consent to the very important change to which the principles now put forth by Sir Robert 1'ecl would lead in the monetary aSairs of this great country." The annexed further communication will be espe cially valuable to the proprietors of liana stock in teaching them how to think upon their own anairs: The observations which yon have lately made on the proposed alterations in the management and charter of the lUnk of England appear to have bvren chiefly directed to that part of the inquire which relates to the fleet on the cur rency rf the country but a very important question arises wheu it is conaiJercd with referrnce to its influence on the pnaitijn of the holders of llank 'toek. The present appears to oe a very uvouraMe opportunitv lor the shareholders to oDtain some mi Tiuatiun their actual KtOition anu in "Lira mey coau periiaps more prontatrly employ heir time than in eaviliine at an arrangement over which thfy have no contru.

The fcrTfed measure of the Government" will trantfer the original debt of 1 1 due to the Bank from that es taoiisnment generally to the lisuing department exclusively that the debt will in I due to the Lolders collectively of that amount of note, and not to the holders of lUnt Stock. The also to be tranferred in the shape of securities to the tune branch of the establishment, will undoubtedly be Exchequer tills or other Government stuca as tne cue! requisites for the purpose intended will be security and farilitr of conversion in the muket. if it should ever be wintei These luni JiJt se curities, and tne wnole cl the bullion being therefore transferred and tledged for meeting the general circulation now in the hnds cf the public, the remainder of the securities will be left with the banking department to meet the claims i tuc j'uout anu pnraie ceposiu, ana tne Lowers oi liana shares. I'cder these circumstances, therefore, it would be venr desirable that the shareholders should obtain a specific and aeiaiiea account oi tae actual amount and character of these securities, in order to form soce estimate of the real value of their stock. The market price of Bank shares is, of course, in a great flrgree governed by the rate of interest it yields, and the greater or leu probability cf the continuance of that interest on its rresent scale; and hence the huh price which it has for some time commanded.

Hut the chance of an eventual increase cr decrease tn the amount of the capital of each share must surely enter in some degree into the calculation of its I reseat value and cf this the shareholders are likely to remain still completely in the dark, unless tbey can now obtain some more explicit infertcation respecting One of the principal items ia their securities is the deadweight annuity has still some vears to run. 1 1 is eaaen. tial that the proprietors shoull be informed at what rate this is calculated, how much is aaaually employed aa accruing interest, and how much reserved replace the capital advanced. Many of their other securities, however certain the Bank may feel of receiving the Interest with punctuality, are perhaps of an extremely anmarketable description, and uiLuimi. vi cunTeriron into money in case any more yrosiaole employment should present itself to their notice.

All these particulars are nece sary for the full onder tttnding cl the position of the Bank proprietors, although not strictlv reauired br the nubile as holders of notes, who will in future be tecured by having their paper based solely an Government debt, and who even now have a priority oi claim until these note are fully paid off. The present published averages give no information whatever on this question, and it is not probable that the new returns will be much more explanatory on this point, which is rather a matter ci partnership account, than as aCair regarding the currency itself. Opinions appear to I very various respecting the future i'roepecuoi me nan, as lar as regards the prtbable emoluments ot the institution. Uy many it is supposed that by oflering greater facilities than at present to private depositors, they may enabled to increase the drawing accounts, both in number and value, and thereby obtain a larger amount of capital at their disosal for employment Stock who doubt the probability of this extension of business, and who consider that the emolument given up to the uvmimitui uourr ce new arrangement will not oe compensated bv increased profits from the above or other sources, it becomes of still greater importance to them that a. more correct idea should be formed ot the value of the capital now existing.

The accounts bv the Acadia steamer of thtir ever iMues, but from imprudent advance without arrival at the various port in the Bute have rather good security, aiMl tyctaequent bad debta These advances are rcade not neosaarily in their own notes; they might equally be done, and are dne, in Bank of England paper, ai.d to an immense extent to merchants, manufacturers, tradesmen, and others, by bills of exchange. So that the sujpreaaion of their notes will not neceatarily aflordthe country security against their failure. As to over iseues by country bankers, I had thought that the examination of evidence by the committee of the House of Commons had dissipated the absurd and rrro ixoui nation that they can effect that object at their pleasure. The supply of their paper, like that of any other occetaary thing, cannot precede the demand for it and the supply is rrgulat'd by the want of the country, and not by the avidity of the bankers to eiend their mucs ax.d I look upon it that the average amount of their issues is just that which the eitent of their businea require', and no mere and titis accounts for the small variation which Kr Itobert allows is observable in the amount.

He seems think it of important advantage to sejatrate the department of irtue from that of hanking, and that they ought to be each on a diflerent footing.

On Monday, the 6th of May, Corporal Jones, of the Royal Sapper nd Miners, sent np an ir. lS ponader gen, covered with an incrustation of mud and pebbles, formed into a sort of conglomerate by the oxide of iroa, with oyrtert adhering to it, on removing which the metal was so nft, that it could be indented by the nail, and when cot off and scraped small or pounded, it became extremely hot, and did not cool again for some hours when tied up in paper.

The abeve ucnuonea corporal are now ut only expenencea divert employed but three other military divers beside them work daily on the same spot, who are frequently changed, in Order to ascertain those who are most likely to be useful.

On Monday, the 13th of May, Major Generel Pasley paid hi nnt viit to Spithead, and found everything well arranged and well conducted, a Admiral Hid Parker, the superintendent of the Dockyard, had every necessary aid toth in fitments, store, and men, having sent the same sxuiui and experienced rigger in the lumps, and hariag ordered out the Drake sailing lighter to Spithead to receive aad load the guns recovered, whilst ber master and crew assist ia the work.

Including the veteran pensioners, the total number of soldiers, sailors, employed daily is more than 100 but the operations will not be so interesting a those of the Royal George, no great charges ef gunpowder Deing required, and no large mawes oi timber remaining. The Edgar was blown up in 1711 by some accident that could never be accounted for, a every soul on board, including numerous visiter from the shore, in addition to 400 seamen aad marines, perished. The explosion of her niaga xines having knocked her to pieces before the sank, the tide flowed freely round the part, so that most of her woodwork has been eaten bv the.worm but. unlike the timber of the Hoyal George, which was preserved in the stiff blue mud, the little thai now remains of tne woodwora oi tne EJgar is entirely rotten, and may be broken to piece by the hand, cr penetrated with ease by any sharp instrument. In tact it has the appearance ot Ming Oarred tnrougn.

and the first baity impression was that it might have been burned, but this on consideration was impossible, because though part of it may have been set on fire and thrown up into the air, the fire would have floated away on falling, and the oak would have sunk immediattlv. long before the fire could have penetrated deeper than the surface. Excepting that all the grain of tr.s wood is perfect, it is quit black througnoul use peat. Last year part of the keel and a floor timber of the Edgar were brought up in good preservation but this year the only sound piece was oak, through which an iron belt had been driven, which wa itself reduced in sixe to less than a tenth part of it former thickness, but which, as it oxidated, had preserved the part of the wood near and round it, but the remainder of the aame piece was a soft as peat. Some bottle, shot, have also been got up.

The proteci of recovering all the guns ef the Edgar in a very short time i by no means so promising as General rley and the men employed under him bad anticipated at the end of last season; In the year 1810 no less than 15 iron fun were recovered in a few days, and towards the end of H'S more were got up, making 20 in all, one of which was broken, and as thev were all at or near the surface of the anchoring ground, so that no charges of gunpowder were required to clear any of them. It was natural to conclude that the rest of them would be found with equal ease. Last week's work, however, in which only one perfect gun and two broken one were discovered, renders speedy suc cess more doubtful but, as those which are not yet accounted for (47 in number) must be at the bottom. General i'asiey nas directed that the lumps shall be moved from time to time, and that every effort shall be made, by sweeping with rakes, half anchor creepers, or otherwise, to fall in with them, for they are not buried like those of the Royal George. nut unless anotner nest of guns (for so the seamen term a group or guns) shall be discovered, it will probably take nearly the whole season to remove them, instead of a few months, a was confidently anticipated at the end of last year.

These iron guns being of no value, the only object that induced Major General Pasley to propose to the Admiralty to approve of removing them, was to render the whole of the anchoring ground at Spithead available for the use of the Royal Ny, as it was informer time.

Sir, I beg to request vour attention to a Return of Re ceipt from the Sale of Parliamentary Papers," ordered by in House 01 commons to be printed cn the jyth of April last, at the cloee of which il is stated that the net profit to the public by the sale of printed Parliamentary piier is 7a 2d.

A most melancholy ac cident occurred on Saturday last, by which two yeung gentlemen at the Grammar School of King Edward I at Bromsgrove, have lost their lives.

It appears that Parker, tio was about it, and incbin, about is years ol age, went itfa a party oftheir'sckoolfellowsto bathe in the reservoir at Tanlebigg, which is nearly three miles from Bromsgrove.

With regard to their not regulating their issue by the state of the foreign exchanges, I conceive it impossible for them to do so. The state of the exchange is never perceptible in their locality, nor di tbey affect the state of trade or I rice. The taking away their promissory notes will nt prevent their eitenaion vf credit to good customers when exchange are adverse. It may be done by bills of exchange, cf which Sir Robert dies not think it ol any importance to take any notice.

farther tbey are important or not, or whether or ua they ar currency, he may inform himself by reference to the work of the late Mr. Leatbam, who states the enormous amount of them in circulation in the country as compared with that of bankers' promissory notes. Should rAr Robert attempt to limit the amount of bills of exchange, he would at once strike such a blow at the credit and cur retcy of the country as that ue man living could see the extent of the ruinous consequences. Ia fact, the thing woeld be itopoaoble.

Elastic, indeed, are human heart strings, for they stretch from pole to pole. Indeed, with many of me wonoy people oi ueter naii distance is essential to love. Just connoisseurs take a backward sten tmlw ta consider the beauties of a picture, do many of these good folks require distance to see the miseri of human nature through an attractive medium. They have no taste for the destitution of the alley that abut upon their dwelling place, but how they glow how they kindle at the misery somewhere in Africa! Familiarity truly begets contempt.

Th famishing shoe binder or sempstress is a homely commonplace the benighted Chinese an exotic darling. With some folks sympathy, like Madeira, is all the better for a sea voyage. We have said that proeelytcmonger have their special rets among them, the Hebrew people bear a great price, lence. as wu shown at a late meetinir. unward of i(i(V are annually subscribed for the conversion of the Jews at Jerusalem, Hebron, Bejroat, Constantinople, Smyrna, and we a now not at now manv otner places nromisinff in anoataew We must confess we should like to see a fair balanc.iht i.f mis account, ue sbouid like to know the exact number converted Hebrews, that we might arrive at something like me maraci price oi a renegade Jew.

Hence, we confrs it, we would Lave our genue countrywomen retrench their outlay on the foreign curiosity, that tbey might better afford to buy up somewhat of the misery produced at home. A day or two after the meeting was held of these benevolent people, whose hearts yearn for the Jews in Sapet and Struburgh, there appeared in the papers but then the tragedy happeaed at No. 1, Angel court, Long acre, not a quarter of a mile front Eieter hall an account of the death of one Mary Wall, sged 35.

The dwellers of Eog'ish lanes and alleys are common, vulgar thingscreatures of foul and violent 3 leech, commonplace in their very rags and ghutlinese, utthe Jews the spiritually forlorn of Jerusalem! Oh! the evangelical imagination clothes them with the mystic beauty of the place, uplifts and sublimates them by the magic of religious fervour, and the very tatters of the Hebrew become rare and beautiful as Joseph' coat of many colours. And so soft hearted ladies and gentlemen, rapt by the for lomness of the far off write their checks, or put their money in the plate, too deliriously possessed by thesweet apostate in the distance ever to dream of the famishing Christian at their right head. Could we but transport our desti tute population to China or to Africa, we have no doubt that many Eaglish Samaritans would then be marvellously piteous of them. Oh, ve miserable Christians, who hunger and waste unvisited in English laa and cellars.

If thi wu to be permitted, no jud original jurisdiction could proceed in the diachvre of hi duty, with any prospect of his opinion being respected. The learned gentlemaa then proceeded to contead that it waa not necessary for the church warden to pmy Romford to be within the parish of Uonwhorch, a that most be presumed, unlee the contrary wu set which had net been done, or, it had. the ph ading to that effect had been rejected, and no appeal from that rejection in due time and besides, a he contended, the whale tie evidence clearly proved that Romford was, in fact, part ef Uornchurch pariah, and upon Wadlake' evidence it wa equally clear that the notice moat haw h.n 4 .1. oa all the church aad chapel doors.

It wu not, however, essential that the Court should gravely cautioned to what she wu saying, she burst into decide upon the questions to the liability of the inhahit tears, and said, I wished to tare my siater. She had a anu of Romford, parishioners of Uornchurch, or the do child, but I never aawit, and she would not tell me where publication of the notices, having no option but to reverse tne decision ot the coart below upon the more material ground, that the payment oat ot the rate of money previeoEly borrowed, or expended, wu illegal, aad would vitiate those rate. Aa illegal payawat of aa amount, however smaiL would have that effect. Ia Hampden's celebrated eaaetie illegal amount wu bet a few shillings; but, even tak the account you would, the nun objected to constituted a uxta of the whole rates.

The caae of Th Queen v. Duraev wu conclusive for if th mandamut had btca granted it would have Wen equivalent to a declaration that tha rate ia question would be good but the otalankJ having beea re luted, the conclusion waa. equally clear that the rate would be bad. The Court in that cue did not make or lay dova any new law, hut only declared the taw it existed before the statute, that if retrospective the rate wu bad. Vpea this ground, therefore, their Lordship had come to th con Sue seemed then very well.

Deceased came to hit room door at nignt, and suted that she meant to go away in the morning early, and not come back again. He said if he was better, he was going to Lincoln in the morning, and he would have her things sent. She then threw her keys into the room, and went away.

This being the whole of the evidence, the Coroner, in summing up, observed, that in the first place it wu proved that the death of the deceased wu caused by poison, and that she had administered it to herself. The cause for such an act wu the next thing to be inquired into. After a lengthened and most difficult inquiry, toe suspicions existing of her having had a child were at last confirmed by the evidence ol the sister, a also the fact of her having concealed the birth.

Had the child not have been discovered. the fatal act would not, most probably, have been committed; for when told by the servant of her having seen something which had made her ill, she changed colour and left the kitchen. After the discovery of the child, it had remained all day in the same place, but a few hours after the deceased wu informed of its having been found, it had been by some one removed. The brst point which would present itself wa. wu the child which wu found that to which the deceased had given birth Secondly, there wu net one tittle of evidence of previous insanity, whether the discovery of the concealment had produced any temporary derangement, or whether the fear of detection had caused the commission of suicide Ia the one case the verdict would be temporary insanity in the other, t'clo de f.
