Loaoas, September 20th, 1839. Tho Liverpool steamship being about to da* part from Liverpool at an early hour to morrow morning, and at no other atoain ship will be in train for New York for an unusual time after the sailing of the Liverpool, I purpose to send you the fullest, latest and the best asceitained account of the present state of afl‘airs in this qnartsr of the world. Preceding all othar matters at the present moment, is the unexpected and extraordinary occurrence respecting the French agency of the Bank of the United Stales. On the night nf Friday last arrived in London an express to .Mr. Jaudon, iiifoiming him that on that day the house of llnttingeur, the Paris agents of tha bank, had refused to accept tha usual bills which had been drawn from Phils* delphia against consignments of cotton to Havre de Grace and various other poi ts of France.— This intelligence waa entirely unexpected by Mr. Jaudon, who,—though the most prominent European agent of the B -uk ol the United Statos,—has not profassod any direct connexion with the Parisian agents of tho bank, end conse quently then learned for the first time that the house of lloUingf ur had come to so extraordin* ary a determination as to rsfuie the bills of an establishment from which they have derived so vory beneficial an interest during an agency of twenty years. Setting ofT instantly for Paris, Mr Jaudon arrived in that capitul_on Mopday, and at once ieino>e<l all the difficulties of the Messrs. Ilottingour. by negociating with the house ofltosihchild,’* the Jewi-li capitalists of so much calebrity. and who new accept the bills of the Bank of tho United States. This event has been the subject of extraordin ary excitement, both in England and in France. But the numerous enemies of tho bank of tho U. States, who,both in London and in Lancashire and Yorkshire, were exnl.iug in the supposed downfall of the institution Imve now found that, on tho countrary, the result of the aff dr hai eminently strengthened the credit of the institu tion; ail parlies now agreeing.that if Mr.Jaudeii, when suddenly called on ceuld provide security lor 7,000,000 of fraiic*,extraneous entirely to bis own arrangements of every description, and could substitute the greatest capitalists in the whole woild for thecomparatively unknow house of Hottingsur—tint all this must redound most signally to the credit and solid power of the Bank of tha Un;ted|8utes. The true and puncipal causa of these at* tempts upon the credit of the Uankofthe United 8tates, is, in my judgment, the teauli of a long* continued aortas of fabrications and distortions of circumstances in a csrtaiu leading London morning newspaper, furnished or abetted and stimulated by those who have been hitherto its opponents, in not recovering those interest* which were forfeited by their own imprudence alone. The outrageous quality of these asser tion* is shewn by the following very recent spe* cimena—that Mr. Jaudon had received as*i*« lance from the Bank of England—which litre is tho most dangerous charge wliich can be made agninst the credit of auy mercautiln or banking establishment—and that, in a similar manner, the earn* gentleman had receii ed the sum of £800,0*10 from tho banking house of Hope of Amsterdam. The direct answer to time inser tions is that Mr. Jaudon has never received one farthing from the Bank of England, and not one farthing from the Hopes of Amsterdam. So far indeed from the Bank ef the United States having received assistance from the Bank of England, tho Bank of England,on the contra* ry, may ba said to have received assistance from lha Bank of the United States, as far at to have imported 250,000 sovereigns, and to have sold them to the Bank of England, at a time when the bullion waa reduced almost to nothing, is certainly 'assistance’ in the true meaning of the word, and this is the only transaction which has passed between Mr. Jaudon end the Bank. On the subject of the westher.and harvest in Eugland, the accounts by tha Liverpool steam ship are unfortunately to be of the verygloatn- lest kind. Hinco the date ofmy letter by the Cambridge packet ship of the 7lh mat. which informed you of the melancholy opp?«rauce of •very thing on theground, the weather has been even worse during tho whole of tho succoi-ding lime. Daily, for tha last ten days we have exi pericnced rain in consiilurble quantity during the whole of the twenty-four hours; but on Satur day and Monday last, the torrents were greater than in any month of Septembei within tha memory of man; Real suuiiiier or auituua, there has beau indeed none in England; auJ the consequence is, that the prospects of the liar* vest are of lha most alarming description at the present time. In Ireland, dcotUud, the higher districts of Wales and the counties of England north of the Dumber, there, is now no doubt, thut the crops will be deficient at least one third and probably one half, as already mentioned;— but so green and backward in these parte of the kingdom is every description of grain, that with out an immediate and very decided change in tho weather, there is more than the possibili. ly that marketable bread stufis there will be ab. solutely none. In the more southern counties of Essex. Sussex and Kent, there is a considers* ble portion or the harvest secured in moderately good coudition; but those countries from only a small proportion of tho kingdom at large and evan there an avurage crop can scarcely lie said lo hate been secured. The Weather this morning is rather brighter at intervals, but tlio air is moih and file wind •teady in lh* southwest and souili,from which ramymisirter* it has not,indeed changed for mo re than ihreu mouths. The consequence of the unfavorable prospects of the harvest has been a rapid rise in the value of every descrip' lion ofgrainnt Market; and the advance being 5s. per quarter within the last fivodays, and the London average for the week being ?§*. 4d; but the general aveiage of the six weeks having not reached 72s, the duty on foreign wheat r#« mains at 5s. 8d. per quarter, and 4s,per bbl. of foreign flour of 19C lbs. It is now, however, cer* tain that the duty will spnedily fall to Is., and that there will be,throughout the winter, a free importation into England of foreign flour and AUGUSTA BOARD OF HEALTH.

Perhaps, therefore, the English Ministry will resort to the power, which they have under the Bank of Knglaud's char ter,to authorize the aue- pension of paymont* in cash, a measure which though groatly is, I mu confident, needlessly dreaded by the public—as tha Bank of Engined is poasa^sed of abundance ol propertv,end there is no probability that Bank of England notes would ho refused by foreign nations, nr that the discount would be lo any material amount, whilst on the other hand, the extension of the carrency which the suspension of cash pay menu would enable tho Directors of tho Bank of Englnud to croute, would appear to be the one only measure which can sustain and stimu late evury department of general trade. In American securities there is no business, excepting tilths shares ortho Bank of the Uni ted Statos—as after inquiring diligently to-day in every quarter and lo the close of the day. not a transaction can be heard of excepting in Bank Shares nt 211 n 10s.

Tha adjuining buildings being all of wood, lha fire wax soon commonilsd to them, and in a few minutes crossed Conception!*!.— Here it had fullsweep—the buildings were very compact sad all of wood, and tha wind south east—the fire swept over Ibe two squares west ol Conception, from Conti, on the south, tn St Francis, on the north, with unesampled and terrific rapidity. Proceeding west. U crossed Si. Joacbim.st.—iheii Jackson—here it extended ene squarefmther north, lo Si.

Not. how* aver until 6 or 8 building* on the west side of Franklin had been destroyed. The dwelling of Duke Goodman, Esq., on the corner of Dau phin and Franklin, was blown up. Thus all the buildings on the north side ef Conii, from Conception to Franklin, a distance of 4 squares —all on both sides of Dauphin, to the same ex tent—on both side* of St. Francis to same extent, with the exception ef 3 buildings on each side at the corner of Conception—all the buildings on the south side of St. Michael, from Jackson to Franklin—all on the cross streets of Concep tion, St. Joachim Jackson.Clsiborne and Frank lin. and probably 20 to 30 buildings besides, in the vicinity. Within the limits described shove.numbering it is supposed, about FIVE HUNDRED BUILi DINGS, have suddenly beer- reduced to ashes!
