FOREIGN NEWS. important from England. THE BILLS OF THE U. S. BANK POSI TIVELY ACCEPTED BY IdEssns. ROTH- SCUILD Pram the N. Y.Cour. h Enquirer of Wednesday LATER FROM ENGLAND. The Liverpool packet ship Independence, Capt. Nye, anchored of the bar last night, and this morning we have received our pa pers by her, which are to the evening of the 28th from London and Liverpool. 'Fho letter we give below, from our Lon• don correspondent, embraces the principal items of intelligence, but as it is dated on the 24th, (the regular day of sailing of the Independence was the 25tb,) and as we have papers four days later, it is necessary we should make some slight addition to its contents. That the bills of the U. S. Bank on Messrs. Hettinger de Co. had been ac cepted by Messrs. Rothschild's, as is sta. tea by our correspondent, there cannot be doubt. The fact was officially published in the Moniteur, and transmitted to Lyons, Bordeaux and Marseilles. To the latest hour, the accounts of the weather are decidedly unfavorable to the crops of grain, and a suspension of specie payments by the Bank of England, of course becomes more probable. There is no very important feature in the news from the Continent, unless it be the apprehended 'scarcity of grain in France. Liorrospondence of the Courier & Enquirer. LONDON, Sept. 24th, 1839. Since the departure of the Liverpool steamship, every thing respecting, the late occurrence in Paris, in Connection with the Bank of the U. States, has settled down in to a perfect calm. To the great satisfac Lion of the merchants, both of England and France, the Messrs. Rothschild now regu larly act for the Bank of the U. States. The weather, since your accounts by the Liverpool has been again unfavorable, with the exception of yesterday ; but at night the rain commenced and continued until 12 o'- clock to day. The afternoon has been bright and warm—but the wind being still in the south and southwest, it is not probable that the present sunshine will last until the return of night. The corn market at Mark Lane on Monday mina ced 2s per quarter on tho price of Friday, but at the market this morning so extrava gant were the prices demanded by the par ties, that nothing could be purchased by the millers excepting for the immediate wants of the day. The state of the money market remains unchanged. The suspension of payment of the Bank of England is now openly dis- cussed in the London newspapers—and all parties—appearing to think the event inevi table—are busted in devising the best mode of carrying the suspension into the least in- jurious and durable effect. The true mode undoubtedly would be to compel the Bank of England to pay interest upon its notes du ring the time of suspension—a measure which, in the case of the Bank of' Scotland, in the last century, proved at once highly satisfactory to the public, and at the same time a very wholesome check upon the is sue of the Bank.. In the case of the sue pension of cash payments by the Bank of England in 1799, no check, control, or Aciactriotina . Jump, contained in the act of. Parliament ; and thence the wild and wholesale issues of irredeemable paper. money, which caused a dreadful con vulsion of the property of the kingdom, on the contraction of the circulation at the time of the resumption of cash payments in' the year 1819. Should the Bank of England suspend payments, in the present year, undoubtedly the much greater degree of popular intel ligence which prevails on the general sub ject of currency and banking, wilt prevent the same ruinous consequence from being witnessed again. And under all the pres ent circumstances of the country, it is rap idly becoming the conviction of many im portant capitalists, that the event as one de- voutly to be wished. The business in American securities re mains equally dead as at the time of the de parture of the Liverpool steam ship. Noth ing whatever has beon reported excepting the sale of the shares of the Bank of the U. States at £2l 12a. The whole commerce of the country is in a state of stagnation and gloom—and only a few hours of sunshine now sometimes oc curs to brighten the hopes of millions of people, whose government so outrages the whole order of nature as to compel us, by prohibitory cornlaws to depend for existence on a soil and climate which, when Septem ber is on the wane, has bronght nothing for the ensuing year, whilst on your continent a magnificent harvest was secured before the termination of the month of June. The misery which threatens to be so wide spread during the ensuing winter, will probably, however, rid the world forever of those ty rannical Corn Laws, by which this great manufacturing nation has so long Leea im poverished and oppressed , . In France disturbances and distress are beginning In prevail in the provinces, in consequence of the high price of bed. The harvest of that country has proved light. In the Cotton market of Londee tLe busi ness has been more active since, and the prices of East India Cotton have even slightly advanced since the departure of the Liverpool steam ship. The recognition of the Independence of Texas has been determined upon by the go. vetnntent of France, and the treaty is to be signed forthwith. The packet ships St. James and Europe have arrived. Tho most satisfactory inter- Went.° by these arrivals is that the Bank of the U. States has ceased to draw upon its agents in. England and France. This is a highly prudent measure in the present threatening condition. (halt monetaryaffairs. The daughter of the Hon.

Ever since the signal defeat of the spoils men to New Jersey, the party papers have been industriously emplo)ed in detracting from its effect, and indeed some of them have gone so far as to claim a Loco loco victory. flow much claim they have to such an assumption nosy be gathered - from the following article from the Princeton W big: "The Emporium, Globe, and other Loco foco prints aro endeavoring, as usual, to forestall the opinion of the Public in other States, particularly where elections are about being held,as New York, Mississippi, Massachusetts, &c. by conveying the false impression, by the means of one•eided ta bles, that the recent election held in New Jersey is proof positive that the Locos have a majority of the popular vote, and conse quently that their would be Congressmen should be allowed their seats in the ap proaching Congress. "We contend that the recent election, if it proves any thing, proves directly the re verse; as, for example, the Whigs have,out of the seven contested couoties,carried SIX, where last year they had but five; they have carried all they had last year, and gained one more, they have carried TEN out of the seventeen counties; they have elected a majority of SIXTEEN on joint ballot, and a majority in either branch of the Leguila ture; which both parties contended for, and all that either party could gain. "But lotus test false pretensions by making a table, not from guess work only, but from the official returns taken from the Clerk's office of each of the contested, and nearly all the other counties in the State: some two or three counties from which we have no of ficial, we take reported majorities, but which will probably not vary 20 votes in the whole. "The seven closely contested counties and on which hung the destiny of the State, as conceded by both parties, stood as ful• lows, viz: ig Maj. Coun. Assent. Passic, 123 1 2 Morris, 152 1 4 Somerset, 168 1 3 Middlesex, 120 1 4 Mercer (on Council,) 280. 1. 2 Cumberland, do. 56 1 3 Locofoco. Salem, do. 195 1 8 "The remaning ten counties, in which there was little or no contest this year, pol led only 27,825 votes, whilst last year the Whigs alone polled in the same counties over 17,600 votes; which, by carrying out the Emporium's lopsided way of ciphering, would place the Whigs this year in a ma jority of several thousands. Now we do not pretend this, but we do say the Whigs have gained all they contended for, as is proved by the foregoing. "lithe Locos wanted to have a general election, why did nut thair Ave Congress claimants accept the offer ,made by - me Whig Congressmen last spring, of leaving the question to the People? "But no, they were afraid to:truSt the People to decide it fairly and openly, they would rather slip in by a party vote of Con -aided by the Emporium's ciphering." LOCO FOCOISM IN THE TENNES SEE LEGISLATURE. It 19 well known that the Loco focos—the professing anti bank, hard money Loco lo cos—have a majority in both branches of the Legislature of Tennessee. Owing to this fact we have looked with much interest to the developments which were likely to be made upon the suspension of the Banks within that State. Almost immediately up. on the receipt of the intelligence of the sus pension in that city, two of the Nashville Banks suspended. The third, the Bank of 'Tennessee, did not suspend, but sent a coin munication to the Legislature, then in ses sion, informing them of the state of affairs, and designed, it is presumed, to obtain from that body an expression of opinion whether or not that bank should follow in the wake of its neighbors. The communication was relered to the Committee on Banks, and we perceive by the Nashville papers that this " committee, composed of a majority of Loco feces, simply reported the condition of the Bank and branches, and declined recom mending any specific action upon the , part of the House. So that it will be seen that this anti-Bank professing committee, after all the professions of the party, were afraid to assume the responsibility of recommend ing even the carrying out their professions. The report of the committee when it tame before the house was laid upon the table, when a member cared the following reso lution: cllesolued, That the President and Directors of the Bank of Tennessee be end they are hereby re quired to suspend specie payments until otherwise directed by this Genera' Assembly." Thierresolation created a deal of flutter ing, and an endeavor was made by a motion for its indefinite postponement, and also to lay it on the table, to thrust the question aside, to blink it. Both motions were lost. A resolution was then offered as a sabot". Mute, "that the General Assembly having unbounded confidence in the President and Directors of the Bank of Tennessee, leave it optional with them to suspend specie pay. ments or not,as their judgment may dictate. 'The two resolutions gave rise to much de bate,. and the house finally acifourned with out any direct vote upon the propositions.— These proceedings occurred on Friday, and the adjournment was made over to Monday, it is thought, m order to go in to a little drilling and caucusing on .the subject. So distinct, hOwever,•were the indications that the loco tows were not prepared to dct up to their professions, that the bank on Sat urday, without awaiting further action, do 'sod. its vaults. There is a lesson to be learned' from these demonstrations. In the Senate orrennes see, the friends of the administration. have la majority office—m the House their ma jority is nine—yet with these decisive odds An their fever they have 013WD themselves 'afraid to make their deeds accord with their professions previous to the electiou. We call upon the people to watch closely the actions of the respective legislatures—they will find that they have been duped, most wofully duped, by placing dependence in demagogues, who cry out for a "hard cur• rency, ' just because it happens to be a good bait to gull the ignorant. The Loco Pecos in Tennessee have started the "ball" inscri bed with those words—"We belie our . pro fessions"—let us see whether the loco focus of Ohio and Pennsylvania and Virginia will presume to stop it.—Ball. Chronicle. From the Philadelphia Inquirer A RESTRICTIVE POLICY-THE U. STATES AND GREAT BRITAIN. One good effect likely to grow out of the existing condition of affairs, is the more ad equate protection of American interests and home manufactures. The opinion appears to be gaining strength among all intelligent circles and in all parties, that the great evil of this country, the policy that has mainly contributed to produce the existing condi. (ion of affairs, is the system of importation that has been practised to so ruinous an ex tent for tho last six or eight years. We are constantly getting in debt to Great Brit ain, and this debt, the moment that our at ricultural and other resources fail, or are not required, is demanded in specie.- 1 Great Britain, it is true, takes our cotton,. our flour, rice and tobacco, that is to say, she takes just the quantity she may require,' dictates the terms by the condition of her own affairs at home, and this renders the American planter and farmer, as well as the American merchants, dependent upon her wants, necessities and policy. Even the Cotton, that constitutes our great staple, is returned back to us in a manufactured con-1 dition. This manufacture is purchased hero to the extent of millions. , and thus we ourselves afford to her, • the very means of our own indebtedness. The case is extreme ly plain. Oa reference to the official tables for the last five years, we find that the im ports of the United States, exceeded the ex ports, something like 8100,000,0001 In 1836, for example, the excess of our im ports over our exports, was little less than $60,000,000. For 1837 and '3B, the ex cess was greatly reduced, but the prospect for the present year is any thing but en couraging. According to the official state- I ment, the amount of duties paid in the Dis trict of New York during the second quar ter of the present year, exhibits an increase. of $1,504,795 over the amount of the same quarter for last year; while the excess of imports over the exports for the same quarter only,amounted in New York atone, to, $12,426,324! The true character of our exports and imports for 1839, may therefore be readily inferred. If, in New York alone, the excess in three months, amounted to more than $12,000,000, may we not argue with reason, that the ertilias throughout the whole country for the whole year, will amount to at least 850,00 3 00, This, be , it remembered, is a debt agfritiet US. in addition to the debt created by ~ loans to the Strite4, — tintrumire ready contracted. Can we experience sur prise, therefore. at the_ monetary .difficultles of our country,when these facts are in connexion with the pressure An the London money market? These low, together with the loans of corporations, the scrip of which is held in England, are said to amount to the enormous sum of 81.14,- 000,000, and about, $10,000,000 a year:in terest i 4 paid. for actual money borrowed. This estimate is low, and made for the moo part, from official reports. The questitiu then occurs,how then are we to cancel such immense obligations? How is the country, in the first place, to pay her present debt,' and in the next, to prevent the accumula• tion of another debt? This latter matter has been pretty well settled by the credi lora themselves. The English capitalists becoming straitened, refuse to tend any more, and hence the door for profligacy and extravagance, may be said to be elosed.--;-- The other question can be answered only in one way. We mint import less! And in, order to do this—our legislators must im pose heavier duties upon foreign labor and foreign manufactures, and thus hold out in ducements and protection to our own indus try. True, this aystem may be objectioea ble in some points of view—but it is the on ly one that can be pursued with safety all the present crisis, and for the utter redemp tion of the country from foreign debt; and all the vicissitudes that follow to its train.— But the other day, the very last steamer, the Liverpool, brought over 60 packages of silks, said to be worth £lOOO each,or en aggregate of nearly $300,000. The same vessel on her return voyage, took out about $600,000 in specie,. chiefly to pay for im portations made on former occasions. The whole matter is fully illustrated in this, sin gle case. If we buy geode from foreigners, we must expect to pay for them. our purchases exceed our sales, the difference must be made up iq coin. Already has this system been carried on to such an extent, that we are now millions in arrears to ouf foreign creditors. Like an nidividucil—the nation has expended more than she hemm ed, and the only cure is retrenchment. The importations have been too large. They should be etrecked—and they cannot and will not be checked,wilesstbrongh the adop tion by Congress, of higher duties ocr fer eign articles of luxury. One thing is clear: —As out imports decrwireur own- menu frieturee will ffourish, and thus, instead of being a buyer and a debtor to England, we should aeon become a competitor with her, in all the chief markets of the world, while the merchants of those markets would be come our debtors. This. is the - point at which every true lover of his country should aim. We should then in reality be an in dependent people.—a nation levying instead of paying tribute. Th 4 Tarif—The propriety of a high tariff is beginning to attract attention. The large amount of debt contracted by the peo ple ofthe United States for English goods is unquestionably, one of the proximate cau• sea of the several revulsions in the carren• cy which have been experienced during the last few years. To check the excessive im• portation of foreig n goods and prevent the cunt:acting of debts abroad which cannot be paid, are objects, the policy of which is not doubted in any quarter. 11 the imposi tion of high duties can abet these objects without producing countervailing evils, let the people demand a resort to this remedy. In our humblojudgment a 'judicious tariff" would prevent the evil consequences which have resulted and will continue to result from the vast importations of articles of British manufacture.—Frederick Ex. Bank Robbery.—The N. Orleans Times say: toner the sum of $22,000 has been stolen . from the Merchants' Bank of that city. The money taken was $20.000 in bills of $100; $l,OOO in tens, and the same amount in fives. It was abstracted from the tin box in which the paying teller of the institution kept his surplus cash—that is, the bills not in actual circulation, and done up in packages of known amounts."

The publisher of the the Lady's Book wishert it to be distinctly understood that the principal fashions in his work are colored,. and in every number, which is not' the case with any other work published in this-country. Uncolored Plates of Fashions, also monthly. This is a nov el feature in the work, and as it is no great expense to give plates of fashions without :coloring, the publisher will give from three to six figures each month, in addition to the three colored—this will make in all ge• nerally nine figures of fashions monthly.— ,Lace patterns and patterns of embroidery will be published at regular intervals.— These beautiful ornaments (particularly the former) have given great satisfaction. The Musical Department is under the su perintendence of G. Osborne, than whom no person is more capable of doing it justice.

Some three weeks since, it was announced in several of the Anti Van Buren papers; that Major Parrs, (dubbed Majoi; on account of being Commander of the dog fighters at Harrisburg lot winter,) Col lector at Philadelphia, and Mr. Patton, Collector at Columbia, Were defaulters to the State in a considerable amount: It having turned • out that Mr. Patton was not a defaulter, the low foco pa. pere made a tremendous noise about the false hoods of the Anti-Van Buren prase, but say not a word allout the charges made against Major Fritz: In relation to him, they "play possum" very handsomely. (13bWe aeo it stated in an exchange, that Frc- &rick Fritz, late Collector at Philadelphia and a deal:Mei to the State in the amount of $48,000, is still in thatcity, walking about, viewing the city, In a mood ..calm as a summer morning."— His sureties wore boUnd in the Rum of $20,000, which amount ho, like a perfect gentleman, hand ed over to thorn, so that they might not suffer.— The balance, we suppose, went to the paying of tho dog.keepers and butchers of Philadelphia county, for their valuable services at Harrisburg in December last.

But knowing as we did, that the Keystone stood next to the Globo in bearing false evilness, wo concluded that it would be as well to examine into the facts of the the case before getting alarmed. We did so, and after taking the Keystone's column of figures, wo find that instead of the loco focos having [pined upwards of twenty-five thousand votes, at the last election their vote actually falls short that of 1838, TWENTY-TOUR THOUSAND EIGHT HUNDRED 3 .1111 D FIETE VOTES, as will bo seen by the follOw ings totals copied from the Keystone; Vote for Porter in 1838, Vote for loco focos in 1839, Showing a felling off of 24,810 from the ranks of the loco locos.

According to All accounts from the cities of Neer York and Philadelphia, money matters have not for a number of years, if ever, been as tight ns they aro at the present time. In the former city particularly, the suffering amongst merchants and business men generally, has been to nn almost unparallelled extent. Stocks at the last accounts were lower than they had been at any time this season, and money was worth from 4 to fi per cent. a month; paper of the best men ih the 'city being offered and sold at that 'discount. How the merchants can sustain themselves after paying such heavy interest, is a matter of astonishment to us. This state of things is owing in a great mea sure to the high state of domestic exchanges.— ' Exchange on "Philadelphia being as high as 13 a 13i; Baltimore 12/ a 121; New Orleans 8 a 9; Mobile t 7 'a 18; Charleston 9 a 10. Some of the Now York Papers—amongst which is the Journal of Commerce—will not permit it to be sbid,that thgre is any distress whatever amongst the merchants of that city,whilst the more candid of the newspapers, speak boldly and openly on the subject, and say that they never knew matters to be in such a condition as they are at present. We hope however, that the worst times are past, and that "there is a better day comir g." The Cour ier & Enquirer of that city, of Friday last, has a lengthy article on the subject of their difficulties, from which we make an extract or two. It says: --s.We have nothing positively favorable to notice in the state of our Money Market, though there does scorn to be a general opinion prevailing that we have seen the worst of our difficulties, and that better times is near at hand. The stale of our for eign exchanges is no doubt one of the chief grounds of this gratifying expectation, for, as will be seen by the transactions which have occurred in them, and which we notice below, these are not only in favor of this country, but so much in its favor,that if they continuo their present course a little longer, they will no doubt cause the importation of specie from Europe. We are not sure however that this is to be desired,as it will but add to the embarrass ment of those countries which are the principal consumers of our great staple, and to a reduction in its price. At present all export hence is deci dedly stopped, and it therefore may be expected that our Banks will see their way clear in enlarg ing their discounts, and that thus,the money mark et will become easier; indeed it may bo said to ' have been somewhat more so to-day, though the distrust, naturally arising from the late precarious I state of things, almost all securities offered, has prevented the rate of discount, sensibly declining. In Philadelphia, matters are not in quite so bad a state, although they aro, in all conscience, bad enough. Stocks in that city, at the last accounts, were indeed exceedingly dull—worse, indeed, the Inquirer remarks, "than they have been at any, period within our memory." Money, however, does not command so high a rate of interest as in the city of New-York, the rates on fair paper out of doors being about per cont. a month. The Inquirer of Saturday remarks. that "it is impossi ble to predict with any degree of confidence, when stocks will begin to recover—especially while the news from Eurepo continues to wear so unfavor able an aspect. The Banks of Pennsylvania, go. nerally speaking, are believed to be in excellent condition. Taking the last official returns as our guide, they are far better able to pay off all their obligations, that the similar institutions of New- York and:it is also believed that recent events will -tend still further to improve them. as comps red with our neighbors,..flint is to say, the sae. pension, by cffordin: g assistance to the business community. W416941116-tailurealtrui bankruptcy and enable • those who aro crippled to recover.— Thus, such persona being debtors to the banks, will in time make good all their obligations, and fortify these institutions for a permanent and suc cessful resumption. IA New-York, it is other wise. Turns, a suspension has bee-n avoided at all hazards ; and the consequence is, that many failures will occur. These failures will necessari ly injure and weaken the Banks. Stocks arc ex ceedingly depressed there, and the only hope in dulged is, that things having got to their worst, any change must be for the better."

What for, wo asked. "For distur bing the solemnity of the meeting," was the sar castic reply. The Missouri papers say, that Governor Boggs is about to demand of the Governors of- Illinois, lowa, and 'Wisconsin. the persons of the Mormon leaders, who fled from Missouri to avoid tieing lob bed and murdered. We think it would comport more with justice if he were to apprehend the scoundrels who were so busily engaged in plun dering the Mormons. Facilities of Travelling.

If those papers had any regard for truth, they would tell their readers that ever since tho days of “Old Hickory," the friends of Jackson, and of the "follower in the feasters," hove carri ed that county by as large a majority as they die last month, if we except the November election of 1836, when "Old Tip" himself was in the field; itt which time their majority was reduced about one half.

A.LOAN OF FOUR MILLIONS TO THE UNITED STATES BANK.-CANTON ABOUT TO BE BLOCKADED.-THE ENGLISH HARVEST BETTER. From the Philadelphia Inquirer of yesterday. By the arrival; at Now-York, of the steam ship Great Western, in 13 days and 20 hours from Europe, we have highly important intelli gence. We have our regular files to the day of sailing. Oct- 19 from Bristol, and to the 18th from London and Liverpool. For these wearo indebted to the vigilacce of our at tentive European correspondent, Mr. Will mer. We also acknowledge the receipt of an extra from the N. Y. Morning Herald. The news, we rejoice to say, so far as relates to money matters, is of a highly favorable character. We proceed to give details. The London Money Market—Mr. Jaudon and the Loan of Four Millions. - The. London Morning Chronicle of the 14th October, announces the final arrange ment of the loan made by Mr. Jaudon,which gave him the command of eight hundied thousand pounds at that time. For this loan he had issued bonds at 18 and 36 months, secured by deposits of Pennsylvania State Stocks, placed in the.hands of trustees. We learn from the same source that on the 11th tilt, two thousand shares U. S. Bank Stock had changed hands at twenty pounds per share. The Morning Chronicle of the 10th ult. says that the Agency of the U. States Bank is placed on a footing of independence; that Mr. Jaudon had been anxious to retire from business, but that he was prevented solely by a desire to sacrifice his personal views, to the interests of his principals, "while under circumstances of peculiar. dif ficulty." He had struggled with success, through obstacles of the most trying nature, and despite of the opposition of enemies, who wore not scrupulous as to the means they employed.. We find by the London Morning Chron icle of the Inth ult. that Mr. Jautlon had deposited -ElOO,OOO on that day, for inter. est on U, S. Bank Shares. THE BONDS FOR THE LOAN OF' EIGHT HUN DRED THOUSAND POUNDS, WERE SELLING IN THE LONDON MAR KET ON THAT DAY, AT 14 pre =tuns We are glad to be enabled to state that Mr. laud= btu" made arteftesitte-te-vrout all the engagements of the U. States Bank,' and that Messrs. Barings will be agents for that establishment.
