Hi As the Bank of England exercises in a greatei I Ht hss degree much influence on the commer ■:; ffai of.bis country, we have taken toon Vcthake’s excellent edition of Mct ul mien founded in 1694, its prmcip.l projector a Mr. William Patterson. It grew .it of ,£1,0)11 a V, at for its 11. magenent. t T i I ( ► following— "It is permitted in its corporate capa city to purchase and hold all kinds of real estate and all kinds ofgoods unless otherwise restrained by act ot parliament, and also to grant, demise, and dispose of the same The management is entrusted to a Governor, Deputy Governor, and 24 Directors, elected year ly from the members ofthe Company duly quali fied. No dividend to be made, save from the profits of the Institution. Ihe ' lovernor. Deputy and Directors must be either native horn or naturalized subjects, and must have in their own names respectively, stock to the amount ot£4ooo, £3OOO, and each direc tor £3OOO. Thirteen or more of the governors and direc tors (of whom the governor or deputy must al ways be one) are, a quorum to manage the affairs ofthe Company, i Every elector must have in his own name, and to his own use £5OO capital stock, and can only give one vote. They arc prohibited from engaging in any kind or sort of commercial undertaking other than in dealing in bills of exchange, and in goli and silver. It is permitted to make advances on hypothecation of goods or other merchandize, and sell the same if unredeemed at public auc tion. Its charter has been extended at various peri ods. and it now holds one which will expire in 1855, with a proviso that it may be cancelled at a year’s notice to that effect given on the Ist of August, 1845. The amount of capital has been increased at various times for services rendc ed to government until 1816, when it reached its maximum of£ 14.- 533.000 stg. or about $65,000,000; but at the last renewal of its character it was reduced to £lO,- 914.750 stg. orabout $48,000,000. During its existence it has been run upon se riously at several important epochs of British His tory, and on the 26th of February, 1 797, an or der in council was issued, prohibiting any fur ther payments in specie, which continued until thefirstot May, 1821, when specie payments were renewed, i The amount of rash kept on hand is not regu i latcd by any parliamentary enactment, but the i directors endeavor as a general rule always to have as much coin and bullion in their coffers as may together amount, when exchange is at par, to a third part of the bank's liabilities including de posits* as well as issues. Its issues arc governed by what is called the “action of the public;” that is, when the exchange is favorable, or when bullion is sent to the bank to be exchanged for notes the circulation is in creased. but on the contrary, when the exchan ges arc unfavorable or notes are sent in to a large amount to be exchanged for bullion, then the circulation is immediately curtailed. The bank as a general rule, endeavors to avoid discounting for private individuals, leaving that branch of business as much as possible in the hands of private bankers, but there are times Jwhen its discounts in this way are very great. The directors, however, prefer making advances or loans to government upon security of certain branches ofthe revenue, and in the purchasa of exchequer bills and bullion. The raw ol inter ' est charged by the bank is generally above the ; market rale. Previously to 1759 the bank issued no notes i for less than £2O. She began the issue of £lO notesin that year, and £5 notes in 1793. and of £1 and £2 notes in 1797. The issue of the latter ceased in 1821. All accounts kept with individuals are called ‘•drawing accounts;” those with whom they are opened being entitled to draw checks upon them and to send the bills and drafts in their favor to be presented by the bank; exactly as if they dealt with private bankers. There is no fixed sum "Vvith which an individual must open a drawing account, nor is there any fixed sum which the bank requires him to keep at his credit to indem nify them for their trouble in answering bis drafts. A person having a drawing account may have a discount account, but no person is per mitted to keep the latter without having the for mer. No hill of exchange drawn in the country is discounted by the Bank in London . under 20/. —nor London note under loti/.—nor for a longer date under existing regulations than for three months. The bank has established several branches. Both drawing and discounting accounts are open ed at these. Applications of persons wishing discount accounts, arc forwarded for approval on every Saturday to the parent bank. The answer is received in about ten days. When approved good bills may be discounted at the branch with out reference to the parent bank. Two approved names are required upon every bill discounted. The dividends on any of the public funds which are payable at the bank, may be received at the branch, by persons who have opened their draw ing accounts, after signing powers of attorney for that purpose. No charge is made except the ex pense of the power of attorney and the postages. Purchases and sales of every description of gov ernment securities arc effected by the branch at a charge of i per cent., which includes all expen ses. The branches grant bills on London paya ble at 21 days without acceptance for sums of 10/.and upwards: Persons having drawing «c -counlsata branch, may order money to be paid ! in the bank aF London to their credit at the | branch, or vice versa, without expense. A j branch is only required to change notes issued anil j dated at its place of location. They do not j change the notes of the bank in London, nor re ceive them in payment but as a courtesy. No note issued by a branch can exceed the sum of 500/., nor be for a less amount than 5/. As remarks are occasionally made claiming greater security to the public from the English system of private banking than from our own incorporated institutions, we subjoin from the same work the amount of bankruptcies of private bankers, during a period of 22 years, from 1809 to 1830, both inclusive. They amount to 311, i beirgan average oIT4 a year. These areexclu j sive of many stoppages on which no commission | /of bankruptcies was issued. Hoard of Visiters.

This, with very many other battles in the South, have never attracted the applause, or attained the historical notoriety, which have attended the Re volutionary incidents of similar magnitude in other quarters—and indeed, so much more has been written concerning the Revolutionary inci dents ol the North and so much more been done by the people and the States in that section to commemorate and signalize them, that the present generation in the neighborhood of the Cowpcns and King’s Mountain know more about Hunker Hill and Lexington, and more of Starke and Putnam than of Pickens or Campbell. ——No monument, inscription stone, Their race, their deeds, their names, almost unknown We have always thought that those battle fields in our Slate which were illustrated by the gallantry and devotion of our ancestors, should be marked by permanent mementos, at the cost of the State—every one from Fort Moultrie to King’s Mountain.-—And he who would carry such a measure through the Legislature, would himself deserve a monument. “ A State of the proceedings of the Western Army, from the 26th day of September, 178il, to the reduction ol Major Ferguson and the Army under his command. On receiving intelligence that Major Ferguson had advanced up as high as Gilbert Town in Rutherford County, and threatened to cross the Mountains to the Western Waters Col William Campbell, with four hundred men from Washington County of Virginia ; Col. Isaac Shelbys with two hundred anil forty men from Sullivan county ol North Carolina and Lieut. John Picvlcr wlin two iiumum ami ivnqj Washington county of North Carolina, assembled at Wattauga, on the 251 h day of September, where they were joined by Col. Charles M’Dowell with one hundred and sixty men from the coun ties of Burk and Rutherford, who had fled before the enemy to the Western Waters. We began our march on the 26th, and on the 30th we were joined by Col. Cleveland, on the Cataha River, with 350 men from the Counties of Wilkes and Surry. No one officer having properly a right to the command in chief, on the first of October we despatched an express to Major General Gates, informing him of our situation, and requested him to send a General Officer to take the command of the whole. In the mean time Col. < 'ampbell was chosen to act as commandant, till such General Officer should arrive. We marched to the Cow pens on llroad River in South Carolini, where we were joined by Col. James Williams with four hundred men, on the evening of the 6th Oc tober, who informed us that the enemy lay en camped some where near the « hcrokee ford of Broad River, about 30 miles distant from us ; by I* efkliripil nf thn tf.l.s stflv.w !* . I thought advisable to pursue the enemy that night, with nine hundred ol the best horse men, and leave the weak horse and foot men to follow us last as possible. We began our march with 900 of the best men about 8 o’clock tlicsume evening, and marching all night came up with ihe enemy about 3 o’clock P. M. on the ?th. who lay en camped on the Top of King’s Mounlttin 13 miles north of the Cherokee ford, in the confidence that they could not be forced from so advantageous a post. Previous to the attact, on onr march the following disposition was made; Col. Shelby’s ridgmont formed a column in the centre of the left; Col. Campbell's an other on the right; part of Col. < leveland’s ridgment headed in front by Major Winston, aud Col. Sevier’s rivgment. formed a large column on the right Wing; the other part of Col. Clcvelond’s ridg ment headed by Col. Cleveland himself, and Col. Williams’ ridgment, composed the left wing; in this order we advanced and got within a quarter of a mile of the enemy before we were discovered. Col. Shelby’s & Col Campbell’s ridgments be gan the attact, and kepi up a fire on the enemy, while the right and left wings were advancing forward to surround them, which was done in about five minutes and the fire became general all around ; the engagement lasted an hour and five minutes, the greatest partofwhieh time an heavy and incessant fire was kept up on both sides, our men in some parts whe-e the regulars fought were oblidged to give way a small distance, two or throe times but rallied and returned with ad ditional ardor to the attact. The troops upon the right having gained the Summit of the Eminence oblidged the enemy to retreat along the top of the ridge to where Col. Cleveland commanded, and were there stopt by his leave men ; a flag was im mediately hoisted by Captain Dcpoislurc then commanding officer (Major Ferguson having been killed a little before) for a surrender; our fire im mediately ceased, and the enemy laid down their arms, the greatest part of them charged, ami sur rendered themselves prisoners to us at discretion. It appears from tbeir own provision returns for ; that day, foun-.l in their ramp, that their whole I force consisted of eleven bundled and twenty five : men—out of which they sustained the following | loss. Os the regulars, one Major one i aptain, I two Sergents and fifteen privates killed, thirty-five I privates wounded left on the ground not able to I inarch. Two Captains, four Lieutenants, three Ensigns, one Surgeon, five Sergents, three cor porals, one drummer and 49 privates taken pris eners; lass of the tories, Two Colonels, three Captains, and 201 privates killed ; one Major and 127 privates wounded and left on the ground amt able to march ; One Colonel, twelve Captains, eleven Lieutenants, two Ensigns; one (Quarter Masti r, one Adjutant, two Coinmissarys, eighteen Sergents, and 000 privates taken prisoners.— Total loss of the enemy 1105 men at King's Mountain.

Ax onn Family.— ln the reign of King Wil liam the Thi'd, there resided at Ipswich a family distinguished by the name of the Odd Family. Every event, remarkably good or bad, happened to this family on the odd day of Ihe month, and every member had something odd in his or her person, manner and behaviour. The husband's name was Peter, and his wier’s Kahah ; they had seven children, all Imys, viz: Solomon. Roger, Matthew, Jonas, David, and Ezekiel. The hus band had but one leg, his wife but one arm So > lomon was born blind of the left eye, and Roger | lost sight by accident.—James had his ear bit off in a quarrel and Matthews was bom with only three fingers on he right band. Jonas bad ihe j slump foot and David was hump-backed. All 1 these except David, were rei. arkablv short, while ; Ezekiel was six feet one inch high at the age of | nineteen. The stump footed Jonas and hump-I backed David got wives of fortune, but no girl in the borough would list n o headdresses of their brothers. The husbands liair was as black as jet, and the wife's remarkably while; yet all the children’s hair was red: The Hus'.mul was killed by accidentally falling into a deep pit in the year i- 7 j* • ant * w | ,i ‘ r<,,us >iig all kind of sustenance, died five days after him. In the year 17(13, Eze kiel enlisted as a grenadier, and although he was wounded in 33 places he recovered. Roger. James, Matthews, Jonas and David, it appears by the church Registers, died in different places, and were buried on the same day, in the year 1 714; and Solomon and Ez' Kiel were drowned together in crossing the Thames in the year 1733.—Lon don S/ar. The Empress Josephine amu the Svbii.. We have just ended the perusal of an anecdote which this distinguished female has related of her childhood’s day#: One day while taking her usual walk she ob served a number of negro girls gathered around an old woman engaged in telling their fortunes, and drew neat to observe their proceedings. The old sihvl on beholding her uttered a loud exclamation, and seizing her hand almost by force, appeared to be under the greatest agitation. Amused at these absurdities. Josephine allowed her to pro ceed, saying. “so you discover something extra ordinary in my destiny ?” “ Ves.” “Is happi ness or misfortune to be my lot?” “ Misfortune. Ah, stop, and happiness too !” “ You take eare not to commit yourself my good dame. Your oracles are not the most intelligible.” “I am n>*i permitted to render them more clear,” saivl the woman, raising her eyes with a mystcriwifl ex pression towards heaven. “ But to- the point,” Josephine replied, for her cuitosity begun to be excited, “ what read ran concerning me in futuri ty ? “ What do i sis- in future?: You will not believe me if I apeak-” “Yes, indeed: I assure you. Come, my good mother, what am Ito fear and hope,” “On your own head be if then* Listen. Von will be married : that union will not lie happy. You will become a widow, ami *> .i,„, »«U will nuet.u of France! Some happy years will be yours; but you will Ole uv an hospital amid civil commotion. Josephine’s after life cxhi'bals a literal'fulfilment 1 of this prophecy of the sybil. She married the Viseomptc Alexander de Beauharnois, and lost her husband in the political commotions' of Louis the sixteenth's reign. After laboring under the trou bles of many pecuniary embarrassiW»frt'a. being entirely depi ndent upon the charity of Tier friends, she became acquainted with ami married Napo- Icon Buonaparte—-firm whose grant tread as he moved along, (ottered the thrones of Europe.— Every one is acquainted with the heart rendering separation which look place between her and her husband, whom she affectionately loved. It re mains only to state, that she died at Malrnaison on the morning of tho 29th of May, “when her gentle spirit calmly passed to a world of love and peace;” and her body Vras consigned to an hum ble tomb in the village church of Buel. Ijawtve Revenue.— Many years since a gen t’smVn in Newington a nariuli as Wd illuirurwalil I . wfiu was a very relupuns and con scicntious man, married one of the most ill-natured and troublesome women who could he found in the vicinity. This occasioned a universal sur prise wherever he was known, and ot\e of his neighbors ventured to ask him the reason which, had governed his choice. He replied, that hav ing had hut little trouble in the world, he was fearful of Incoming attached to things of time and sense, and he thought that by experiencing some afflictions he should become more weaned: from ' the world, and he married such a woman as he thought would accomplish this object. The, best part of tho story is, that the wife, hearing the reasons why ho married her, was much offended and nut of revenge, became one of the most pleasant and dutiful wives in the town declaring that she was not going to he made a pack-horse to carry her husband to Heaven. A Novel Divorce Cask. —The Ncw-York Gazette says: A petition is before the Legislature of Connecticut, which excites a great deal of in terest, and as it appears to us a good ileal of ill feeling. It is an application of the lady of the Rev. Samuel F. Jarvis. D. D. L. L, D., (or a di vorce from her husband, and for the sett lenient of an alimony of five thousand dollars per arm:.in from his estate. The lady urges the measure on the ground of unhusbandlike and illiberal treat ment—nigardliness and unpeeuniosily of provis ion for her rnaintainancc. The friends of the Rev. respondent, who is son of the late Bishop Jarvis, and a clergyman of the Episcopal I ‘hurch, enjoying a very high reputation for his talents and excellent character, insist upon the vixen dispo sition of the petitioner. They say sin is an un easy. uncomfortable and extravagant woman, whose conjugal conduct allimls much stronger grounds for an application for a divorce on the part of the husband, than she ran claim herself. Khe, too, belongs to one ot the most resectable families in Connecticut, and her sisters are mar ried to some of the most distinguished luou in the country.

In add turn to Lime, there in tumid Magne sia and Kpsom Salts in it-, and' the great quantity of Carbonic ac id gas, constantly escaping from the Spring, renders the water very light. I o IJyspe i, tics, and persons laboring under liver comp aints,or of constipated habits,experience enables us to say that this water is inva uah e. If any visitor labor ing under any of these diseases has ever visited the place, and not been bent lilted, it is to. us un known. There are two line Chalybeate Springs,, one rising out of the Limestone Quarry, and the' other a short distance below it. In addition to Iron, they are supposed by many to contain other active ingredients. Since they have been discovered,they have been found to he very beneficial to many weak and debilitated persons. The grounds about the springs are beautifully laid out, and afford many fine and delightful walks. Several intelligent and respectable gentlemen have settled peunanently at the Springs, and con stitute at ail times a delightful society. They have made their settlements with a two-fold object!, health and the education of their children. For this latter purpose they have established two ex cellent schools—a Male Academy, under the di rection ol Mr. I(oosa t ngd K Female Academy un der the care of Miss Williams, both schools merit every encouragement—they are well i.lnUn led. and imparting to their resp. ctive pupils, sound! anil good education.
