made in strict conformity with the deuce of con

field notes to the General Land Officio.
That survey must exhibit its connection with
the contiguous public surveys. On reaching the
General Land Office it undergoes a careful and
thorough examination in connection with the
original proceedings before the board of commis.

On l'hursdny,•the 19th,. the Times says there
woe a decided amendment In all mercantile qubi ,
tors ;. but a single failure was reported, and some
special causes of anxiety, wore removed, The

the assistance reeeived from the bank, after a WI

Loans on Government securities were in demand

At Hamburg, the rates of discount had receded

Private letters from Paris describe a better feel
ing. The American houses ware beginning to get'
remittances, and the situation of the Bank of
France was improving.
At other continental cities there are likewise
signs of an approaching tendency to the revival of
confidence.
A large and very influential meeting bad been
held at Glasgow, for the purpose of expressing con-
Mance in the -Booteh Banks. It was resolved to

tame afforded by the Dank of England has ar
rested the distress whloh otherwise would have

The Times' city article gives the following ac
count of the state of the produce markets during
the week : The produce market, which, at the
commencement of •the week showed a slight ten
dency to improvement, hes since relapsed, in con
sequence of the extromo pressure for money, and
the still unsatisfactory nature of the Amerloan ad
vices. Further heavy failures during all the early
days of the week, also increased the general feel
ing of distrust, but the absence of any fresh diffi
culties on Thursday and Friday has bad some
effect in restoring confidence.
At Vienna there has been a partial recovery . In
the funds, and the premium on gold has declined
nearly one per cent. This improvement is attri
buted to the official announcement of a considerable
reduction in the Austrian military establishment.'
At Hamburg, Messrs. Ullbourg lc Cramer, en#
gaged in the Swedish trade, have stopped payment,

was attended with groat difficulty. '
From tho Daily News' city &Mole of Friday'
evening : The funds, after obtaining a rise of Id
per sent., closed I per cont. higher than ' , ester,
day. Upon tho whole, the feeling in the money
market was to-day calmer and more' satilfaotory. :
The negotiations for affording assistance to a great
and wealthy Amerioan house, with liabilities esti
mated at more than two millions; were' to-day set.,
islaotorliy concluded. The temporary embattle:As.
monis of the firm in question wore solely occasioned
by the impossibility of procuring remittances hem
some of the first houses in America. Provided that
no fresh important eases of embarrassment occur,
there is a diqmsition to hope that affairs will •he
come more cheerful.
THE BANK RETURNS.
The Times' cityi article, referring to thee° acts,
points out that, while we have boon increasing
our promises to pay in gold, the stook of gold on
which them promises were based has been steadily
diminishing. All will soo that this inverse preleete
must have oertain limits, and that if these limits
wore reached, national suspension would be the
result, happily as yet checked by the partial
tendency to the revival of confidence.
The Daily News' city article doeoribes the re.
turns an the most remarkable over published. The
banks have infringed the not to the extent of two
millions, but to a considerable extent this infringe.
mcnt is more seeming than real. Of the two mil.

of 11,552,685, remain in the bank still; consequent.
ly, the extent to which the public have actually
trenched upon the new fund of two millions, so far
as placed at their disposal, is really less than half
a million. Tho £1180,512 of coin withdrawn re

QuenrEn SnostoNs Judgos Thompson and
Conrad.--In the Court of Quarter Sessions, this
morning, Judge Conrad delivered the following
opinion in the ease of William 'Wainwright, late
President of tho Commercial Bank, charged with
official perjury :
Commonwealth ex .re!: Wm. Wainwright vs.
McKee, Sheriff, ito.—Habeas Corpus.—The de
fendant is'obargod with perjury. Ho was, in 1854,
Presidont of the Commercial Bank, and, as such,
took the oath required by law, that ho would not
" knowingly violate or sanction, or willingly per
rnit,"' any of the provislens of ' the law governing
the charter of the bank to bo violated. By the
same not Mandl 16, 1849) it is provided that any
ono robe shall, "after having taken and eub
earibed the oath required by this act, wilfully vio
late any provision of any act of Assembly, appli
cable to the bank of which he is an officer, he shell
be taken and deemed to have committed wilful
and corrupt perjury."
By the act of 25th March, 1824, it is dbclarod
that—
None of the said corporation shall, directly or
through the agency of any person or persons whom
soever, either in trust or confidence, deal or trade
with tiny profits, stock, money, or effects, in buying
or selling any goods, wares, or merchandise what
soever; and all and every person or persons
who shall, contrary to the true intent and mean
ing of thin sot, be engaged, either as principals
or agents, in such buying, selling, or trading,
shall forfeit and pay treble the value of goods,
wares, and merchandise so traded for. ono-half for
the use of the person prosecuting for the same, and
the other to tho State ; but nothing herein contained
shall be so construed as to prevent any of the said
corporations from selling any stock of which it may
be possessed. The said several corporations - shall
not be at liberty to purchase any stock whatsoever,
except their own bank stock or ether incorporated
bank. stock of this State, treasury notes, or public
stook of the United States, or in any loan proposed
by the Government of the United States,or stack
in any of the incorporated companies of this State
for the improvement of roads and inland naviga
tion. Provided, the stock and treasury notes so
purchased and the loans so made to the Govern
ment of the United States, shall at no time exceed
one-fifth part of the amount of stook of such cor.
poration actually paid in; andtfie said several cor
porations shall not deal or trade in anything but
bills of exchange, gold or silver bullion, and in
the stock and treasury notes aforesaid, or in the
sale of goods really and truly pledged for money
lent and not redeemed indue time, orgoods
man be the produce of their lands. •
This is the act which the defendant Is charged
with having violated, by dealing in promissory
notes, or by permitting the bank so to deal ,
By the testimony—confined of , course, to that
which is hostile to the defendant—it appears that
the bank was, in the course of its regular business,
in the roooipt of a large amount "of uncurrent
money. These unourrent Binds were received by
Mr. John S. Newbold, and by himosed in his busi
ness or sold. 110 also received bills of axehangli
from the bank, drawn by the bank ou Pittsburgh
and other places, which bills, be states, he used or
sold. Mr. Newbold gave his cheeks for this un
current money, which chocks were paid back in
the discount of his bills receivable. Mr. Newbold
retained his property in the promissory motet dis
countOd by tho bank until they were discounted.
Ito paid the bank the difference arising from these
transactions, but is unable to state the amount.
The books of the bank, however, show tho amount
of promissory notes to have been $1,900,000, while
the profit of the bank on this large sum was only
$11,150, a fact that indicates the sole motive of the
bank to have been to disembarrats itself of its un
current funds.
The offence charged is perjury; but the facts
alleged, if they constitute any,erime, do not prove
a wilful and corrupt false swearing at the time when
the oath was taken. Tho real allegation is a sub
sequent violation of the provisions of the act of
Assembly; but the Legislature has the right to
give to any act any characterizing hams, to call
that perjury which is not perjury, and to denounce
against a misdemeanor which consists in dealing
in promissory notes the infamous penalty assigned .
to a wilful and corrupt false swearing.
It is remarkable that the alleged offence was
committed some three years since, and that the
sense of public duty which prompted this prosecu
tion slumbered throughout that long period. The
Commonwealth has assumed the position that, al
though the Legislature has given to the offence the
title and the penalty of perjury, it has not, in fact,
made it perjury If this position'were sanctioned,
the present prosecution would be barred by the
statute of limitations, which provides that no
indictment for misdemeanor, except forgeries and
perjuries, shall be eommenced or prosecuted in any
of the courts of this Commonwealth, unless the
same shall have been commenced and prosecuted
within two years from the time at which the al
leged offence shall have been committed." And,
though the statute does not bar the prosecution, it
must bo admitted that all the reasons upon which
It is based, and.whieh Induced its passage, apply
to eastdoubt over the charge so long anu so unne
cessarily deferred—doubt in regard to the motives
of the prosecution, to the memory of the prosecu
tor, and to the justice, of requiring defensive ex
planations when the means of vindication have,
in the lapse of years, probably perished.
The act hero alleged against the defendant, to
wit: dealing in promissory notes, is, by the net of
the 10th of April 1856, distinctly sanctiohed 'and
allowed; and serious doubts have arisen whether
the Commercial Bank was governed by that or the
previous act of 1821. The old pilaster of the bank
expired in 1850, and subsequently to the passage
of the act which now permits banks to deal in
promissory notes; but the set extending the char
ter boars date the 2d of April, 1849; and the bet.
ter ePtirek seetpa t t:ort.L , ' bank and its officers

ilieeovered the error, the memory which has cher

lions, would be regarded with favor by an intelli
gent jury.

Nish a case must be made out clearly and dis

all cases where the testimony presents a elate of
facts virenid make it the .duty•of the

should, under the writ of habeas corpus, be ills

constituting the offence charged is in proof.
unquestionably the right of the defendant to re
quire that the Commonwealth shall designate and
proil some one individual instance of a. violation
of the law. Nothing of the kind bas been attempt
ed. It is not alleged that the defendant did, up•
on a day stated, and in a transaction designated,
commit or permit a distinct and positively Neer
tained infraction of the statute. There is evi
dence, which may or may not go to show that's
practice existed In the bank Which, VOSSibly may
have involved some one instance bt a' violaticitt of
the law ; but no such instance has-been proved;
and in the absence of such .proof there is nothing
alleged upon which the defendant can he held to
11111M0V. . ,
From the evidence ; it would' secra - that, the nn
carton t money received, by the hank was taken in
the usual course of its regular bueineos, and that
the.arrangement adopted hail, as its sole object,
the disposal of those fonds: The books exhibit the
feet that the bank dealt largely with Mr. Newbold
in bills of exchange,
which is sanctioned by the act
of Assembly, and that the premiums and discounts
are not so distinguished.' in the account. ' The pro
missory notes appear, in all cases, to have been dis
counted; and no instance is given in which usurious
Interest was charged. The result of the - transactions
of the bank with Mr. Newbold exhibit a prOfit:on
the part of the former so small as not only to ex
elude the suspicion of usury, but to.indicate that
the disposal of the uncurrent funds was-the only
,
object contemplated.
To sustain the charge of porjhrle tWO
aro necessary. The
_participation-Of the defend-'
ant in the transactions referred - to' le Foie shown,
if at all, but by one witness. Beatty, 4ndlhis
testimony, if a jury should give it credit, would,
in law, be insufficient. The, Commonwealth re
gards this as perjury only in its title; but, igen
its essential characteristics, an ordinary mind's.
moaner. If it were so, the prosecution would. as
I have already remarked, be barred by the statute;
but the joint resolution of April 3, Igla (which
has been overlooked by all parties), provides:
That the wilful and deliberate false swearing
by any officer or agent of, any bank, or any
other person, to or in relation to any statement or
statements required by law to be made, or other
duty enjoined by law, shall be deemed perjury in
law, and punishable as such, and the confinement
within the penitentiary of this State, which is
hereby required to be part of the sentence in each
such case, on conviction, shall not be less than
ohe nor more than six years."
This comprehensive and rigorous enactment
clearly constitutes the offence a perjury, and sub
jects it to all the rules of law "which prevail in
such cases. To establish the guilt of the accused,
therefore, two witnesses are necessary. The only
evidence before inn implicating the defendant In
the transactions alleged, is Mr. Beatty, and if,
therefore, those transactions were in violation of
the law, and if that testimony were utterly free
from every imputation of extortion, delay, and
malice, and worthy of all confidence, it would still
be Insufficient.
But to constitute the crime of perjury, the false
swearing must be wilfully and corrupt." The
net under which this prosecution has been ineti•
Oiled, requires that the officers of the hank shall
take an oath that they will not knoining/y violate
or sanction, or willingly . permit any of the pro
visions of the law to be violated, and in the penal
section following denounces the punishment of
perjury against any officer who shall wilfully vio
late any provision of any act of Assembly appli
cable to the bank. If this wore a proeeeding
against the corporation itself, it would be difficult
to gather, from the testimony, evidence of a wilfal
violation of the law, for it seems that the institu
tion consulted counsel, and acted under instruc
tions ; but we look in vain, in the present ease, for
the slightest evidence against the defendant tend
ing to prove a wilful offence.
Ignorance of the law will not, of course, muse
him; but there should be some evidence of a wil
ful spirit and a corrupt motive to sustain a charge
so grave as that of perjury. Bare there is none.
On the oontrary, I am unable to discover anything
in the facts, as disclosed by the evidence, which
either proves an offence or shows anything in the
conduct of the defendant inconsistent with the most
guarded and irreproachable integrity.

THE MONEY MARKET.
PritLepaz,rnia, December 2,1857,
The latest received numbers of the London Times
state that the demand for discounts, at the Bank of
Bogland, continue on - an extraordinary soak, and
that the infringement of the sot of 1844 is believed
to have been already carried to a rather wide ex
tent. The telegram of the latest news by the
Arabia at Halifax, with-dates to the 21st ult.,
shows that the panic had not subsided as was an
ticipated, but that failures continued to take
place,.and that the pressure for money showed no
abatement. The house of Peabody k Co. had been
saved from failure by the advance of 11,000,000 by
the bank.
All these things show how much deeper-seated
is the present difficulty than in 1847, when the
more announcement that the bank would be al
lowed to violate the not of 1844 quieted the exist
ing alarm, and it was not found necessary by the
bank to - avail itself of the license. As the disease
is snore serious, it may be foUnd that the remedy
which before gave relief will now prove inopera
tive, and 'we shall await the news to come
from England. during the next month,
with a good deal of curiosity, not unmixed
with anxiety. The accounts of financial em
barrassments at Calcutta add to the bur
dens of the'British merchants and bankers. It
is well for us to remember hew very far the Eng
lish papers are under the influence of Govern
ments, as well as their natural desire to -put the
best possible face upon matters, and to take their
statements with proper allowances. It is so mani
festly for the interest of the Government to keep
down the excitement, and to prevent a heavy de
cline in Consiils preparatory to the borrowing pro- -
seas, that will soon commence if the Indian war
continues, that we should not allow ourselves
to be surprised or deceived by any statement
appearing in the London Tzvsrs, the least vera
cious of Journals when need seems to require the
coloring of facts; and the other English papers will
naturally follow the lead of the Times for the sake
of putting a limit to the spread of the difficulty.
It now appears very probable that the distress in
England is fully as great as has been experienced
here, while they have there the disadvantage of
not being used to the pressure of the screws, as our
people unhappily are under our miserable system
of banking, and, what is far worse, they have not
the recuperative energy which will speedily sot all
things in Amorioa to rights again.
The business at the stock board continues dull,
and prices are not well supported. In the money
market there is no change to record. -

the banks are discountioi liberilly. 'They - are
willing to do so, if they could get gist-dam men to
ask for discounts, but they cannot, and none other
are looked at. In the street, I hear, transactions
are a shade easier ; but the difference is to slight
and partial that it is only perceptible to one who
happens to have softened the "heart of mrmoney
lender and got paper.done. under 2 per cent. a
month. The exploits of 'Orpheus were floating,
however; to softening the heart of a Money-dialer,
and. I must believe 'the - achievement to be
fabulous.
Sterling Exchange is inactive at yesterday's
rates. The Niagara takes out $Bll,OOO frame this
city, and it is thought that the Collins - steamer
will take at least an equal sum. The particulars

The stock market is more buoyant to-day, and

degree. The first board opened very strongly,
with brisk fa I es. but towards the close there was
less activity, and a falling of in prices. _Railroad
bonds were very much in request at iriadvance.
