Napier on the subject of the armelot, ite , induce me to offer some remarks on the vari o us keaaehes of military expenditvre. I shall com ments with the ordnance' corps : The clothing of these corps is furnished by a contract made directly by government with an army clothier or tailor, and the clothing *as supplied is compered, by a board of officers appointed for the purpose, with the sealed patters, which is of • better quality than that approved of ler the line. The public would appear by this system to be saved the difference between the sum allowed to the colonels in the line to clothe their men, and the sum actually expended thereon. Bet this is not the case, for a compensation of 1,0001. a year is given instead to each colonel of a battalion of artillery . This is a print sinecure, for such colonels (general Akers) have nothing whatever to do with the bat talions. la feet, the rely messiag of dividing the regiment of artillery tato battening, is to give an excuse for then g . 1 a year sinecures.

Last year, however, it was announced that they were to be augmented, and—as melt banana's consisted of eight compaake—to add two com panies to each battalion—makiag each consist of ten com panies, the same as the line—es , wad consistent with ros ette. Moreover, ie is also the *umber which formed a bat talioa in the time of war. Mace the artillery consisted of eight battalions the number of companies to be added would be the seam whether each battalion were to *mist of tea companies, or two more bat taboos of eight companies each were formed ; and a pars- Clitwent the round of the papers about June last, stating the latter wee to be edpted, and giving the names of ell the oaken who woald in consequence be promoted. This was evidently pat forth as a feeler. But the job was too gross to be carried out while parliament was sitting. It was in fact merely in order to give two more sinecures of 1,0001. a_ year each to the commandant and the adjutant-general at Woolwich. The Gazette acoordinsly came out with two commas" added to malt of the eig ht bananas', and passed without mike. No sooner, however, was parliament prorogued then the job was effected ; the 18 compasies were taken from the battalions, and SWIM' into two new ones. Thus, is order to give these two einem their siasenras of I,OOW. a year, the public is saddled Ma t h e apse of fear addi- Meal colonels, and eight neaten= , balks oaks tants, quarter-masters, de., while the number of colonels and lieutenant colonels was already so great, that half of them were unemployed, or quite unnecessarily attached to the garrison at Woolwich, where there already is double the cumber required fur the duties. This job, however, besides the two sinecures to favoured calkers already holdirg highly paid appoint= nts, gave great patronage to the larater-Oeseral by removing onions from the Horse Artillery, and thereby making vacancies in that seem far appointments, is which great interest is always made, es the oaken have higher pay, the best stations at home, and take so colonial dation. It may be here remarked that this service, notwithetand tag the other reduction, was still kept up to its full comple ment of anis, as is war tine—namely, one colonel oommandent, two colonel', five lieutenant-colonels ; and for each troop one ant captain, one second captain, and three lientesanot, though the establishment of the troop was re duced from six guns ; 158 rank and file, and 158 horses to two guns, 62 rank and Ilk, End 28 horn. The keeping up of this exam of oaken at great expense— s@ they have all cavalry allowasoes—was evidently to make places for favourite', who are thereby also exempted from taking their tour of colonial ',foie*. For similar reasons, no doubt, the household troops have more officers than the line —namely, one major, and two troops more each. This addition of battalions else pave the master-general the patronage of a number of additional cadetships for the Royal Military andcmy ; that is to say, it enabled him to give mmunusions gratis, which are so highly paid ter in the thse Gad is the cavalry.

Jan. 9. KUM. OUR REPRESENTATIVE SYSTEM. HARWICH (Cownivan). Two or three years before the general election of 1841, a gentleman took op his residence in Harwich el the =me of Bagehaw, an But India merchant. He bad been member for fiedbw in 1433, and an an snoessefol candidate far lEerminster in 1837, and at this tints he was out of parliament —a gentleman at ease. Mr. Barium exhibited great interest in the well being of the electors of Harwich, and their families and him& The government have got a dockyard in the town: it had gone to wreck and ruin. Mr. Bag shaw got it upon lease from the Woods and Forests, and proceeded to build ships and give employment to a part of the population. lb. John Williams, the well.know mistioeary vessel, was one of the last ships built in Mr. Bsgshaw's yard, and the Harwich people speck of it with great respect accordingly. 7he high stewardship of Harwich Calling vacant, Mr. &gam got himself elected to that aloe, and there being a prospect of a dissolu tion of parliament, it became understood that he would also cifer himself for the borough. The impression was speedily confirmed. Mr. Ear shaw, as he himself said, " made his canvass very early." He knew every voter in the borough : " there was not a person that he did not make Wes sell acquainted with, and their circumstances." He employed a dozen voters or two himself, and that was no small number in proportion to the entire con stituency. Mr. Bagehaw 's canvass was consequently most soceentful. Capt. Ellice was certain not to come again. Whether the other sitting member, Mr. Her ries, would stand was also doubtful. It mattered very LIU, to Mr. Bagehaw whether he did or not, for his return at the head of the poll against him soon be came certain as the day. Whilst Mr. &phew was making Harwich safe for himself, a negotiation was going on in London. The now Sir Dents Le Merchant, who had held for come years the post of SecretU T of the Board of Trade, bad just been promoted to the Age of Secretary of the Treasury. By prescription the Secretary of the Tressury was entitled to a seat la parliament for Harwich. It was consequently arranged among the whip that Sir Denis 1,. Merchant Amid go down to that town. Mr. Herrin was far toe sour- Mous a politician, and far too old a placemen, to die sent from such an arrangement. So well, too, did h a know the power of a Treasury Secretary at Harwich, that he deemed even his own personal influence 1 the electorate would be of comparatively no : 1 ,2 Mr. Harries declined coming forward again. Sir Denis Le Merchant who, as he says, " had a great deal of public business at the time" (a treasury secretary al ways has at a general election) only west dawn to Harwich for a couple of days. He found that, is ware to secure anything like a favourable intrados tine to the place, it was necessary to pay 5001. on ea- heal it. He did not exactly know, he said, what it was for. He never looked at the bills, for it was an unpleasant sort of hominess altogether, and he de strayed them at once ; but as far as the 5001. went it' seemed to be for old accounts; for instance, a oonsi derable sum to a regatta, to which a former candidate had not subscribed ; and these were things which seemed perfectly indepen dent of election matters local politics, &c. Part of the money, he believed, had been advanced by a third person, and if he had not paid the money it would, he dare say, have injured his prospects, and have been thought very discreditable." With deference to Sir Denis Le Merchant, it was rather a mistake paying out that 5001. It began to give people at Harwich a flesh taste for election money. A body of electron instantly displayed great anxiety to have a contest. They tent a deputation up to town, and various persons were consulted. For some time there seemed great difficulty in getting even a single candidate. At length they fell in with a gentleman who offered them two. It was a Mr. Masse who describes himself as a parliamentary agent. He arranged everything. He got a " moneyed candi date," and " the scion of a noble house," to run together. John Attwood, Esq., of Hy-lands, and William Beresford, Ea+, of NO-lands, were the can didates he selected. Mr. Masse, the muter of the election ceremonies, introduced the blushing pair to each other prior to the dance. He arranged all they were to do. Moses went down to Harwich to pu pate the way for them. On the 13th of June he issued en 'Altus to the "Constitutional electors of the borough," announcing that " thous candidates would personally solicit their votes and warm support, as gentlemen "who came to the rescue of the town, to promote its trade, reduce its church rates, re-establish their intercourse with the north of Europe, and thereby make Harwich what it was in former times." Mr. Mome further called a meeting of the inhabitants. lie let it be understood that " Mr. Attwood was a man of immense fortune." He held out, " in an electioneering fashion," that he would pay " their church rate debt " (a matter of 6,0001.), and that " he would assist their railway as far as he could (say to the extent of 10,0000." There was also something fa, thee mid about Mr. Att wood making water works and supplying the town with water, a matter, perhaps, of 10,0001. additional. In fact there was nothing too great for Mr. Attwood and his friends to promise : and poor Mr. Bagshaw's dock-yard and the "John Wil liams" faded into insignificance before the railway, the water-works, and the payment of the church-rate debt. Mr. Mows, the agent of Mr. Attwood and of Major Beresford, has put on record the particulars of their expenditure, &c., at the election in question. I told Mr. Attwood that I considered the election would cost from 3,00 W to 4,00 W. for both the caadidates. He said, / will mirk pleat's,' pay it, but I shall not pay any money, directly or iodirectly, to bribery, tor I could never rest easy upon my pillow if I keew that there was • man calltd upon to take the bribery oath who had received a bribe tweeting for me.' " I will candidly admit," says Mr. Mow, "that when I went to Harwich I had expected that there might be eight er ten men who could be bribed. I found that there were about ten men doubtful, bet the pathless said they were to be had. I perfectly understood what they meant—to be had by bribery ; and there were the old municipal and other ex• penes. which mused me to mans so large a sum es from 3,0001. to 4,0001. for both ceadidates; them expenses, for the credit of the conservative side, they said, must be paid. I had taken down 2,5001. with ma, I gave Mr. Car, a Har wich banker, who is now dead, 2,3001, ; and from airmen stances that occurred, I did not enter into money matters with Mr. Cos. • • • • I lodged the nest day 1,0001. at his bankers, which made 3,5001. I concluded that every shilling was paid of the expenses. • • Afterwards I watt Own and met Mr. Cox at Ipswich, and he told me that he had paid 2.2001., in sddi tioa to what he bed had. I told hint that it was totally int possible I could say a weed to Mr. Attwood about it. I expressed myself in very strong terms of in dimmed= at what had bees resorted to. He mid, "It could not be avoided, for the other party were offering immense sums." I said " They may have been, but it most have been only laying a trap for you." • • He Trema very much. • • I therefore sent 1,5001. • • enning Mt. Cox told me "We shall want 1,5001. mom." I was astonished, and I told than I was quite sur prised, and I could not mention it to Mr. Attweed. • • Mr. Cox wrote such pressing linen that we scarcely spoke to earh other, because ha was 6o angry that be could not get the balance. Then he applied ti Mr. Attwood, sad said it was very iseouveuisat to lie out of the money. I said to Kr. Attwood " that dig must be paid" ; and I mut, through a connexion of mine, to Mr. Cox 1,3001. • • That makes 6,3301. A prettier exposure of the way a candidate is sometimes bled never perhaps was presented. Mr. Moose declared that he received no account—that " he purposely abstained from having anything to do with that." Mr. Cox died soon alter the election; and as he was the sole acting partner in the firm, it is not probable that any very clear explanation ever was forthcoming. Mr. Attwood, Mr. Muss—no single party imme distally concerned—ever admitted a knowledge of how Ills messy was disbursed. But there are mecum sisaces narrated in Harwich that show pretty dearly how a part of it went. It has been rather a MIMI of bout amongst individuals there how much haws sea USII received than another. " I got 1501." "'Ay 2001. we. my figure." Sir Denis IA Merchant bad a principal supporter—the landlord of a public he..., at which a breakfast was given by the liberals en the morning of the polling day. Up to 12 o'clock *silage of Le Merchant and Bapkaw were displayed hem the windows. At that hour they were drawn Ica r " for fear," as the landlord said, " that they might pi damaged." At about half-past two a large blue banner, to the astonishment of all the town, was thrown out of the same window, and very shortly after Sir Denis, who was watching the poll with extreme anxiety, was struck dumb with astonishment at seeing the worthy publican and his sin principal supporters of his, all through the contest—come up to the poll and tender their votes for Attwood and Bamford. They received 6001. from the twin, which was sot quite all profit, for their bill against Sir Denia's committee was, very properly, dishonours& There were 169 voters of whom 180 polled. Mr. %phew had received 100 diatinot promises, and two persons voted for him that he did not realise on. At the close, waver, the numbers stood thus: For Atwood, 94 ; Bereaford. 94; Bacahaw, 83; Le Mer chant, 74. For the first time is Harwich a Secretary to the Treasury was Meats& It must have been, indeed, a atzesg inducement to secure that. How many of the voters were bribed ? Mr. Bag shaw says " The great majority of them." The people at Harwich now-frdays say three.foarthe, at lout, which comes nearly to Mr. Bagehaw's mark. Mr. Joseph Parkas, however, hes a more amiable opinion of human na t ure at Har w ich than other people. He ,aye: _ The balmy. at the pert et the defeated auutidatee, was TNT ta they wadi have get the ratan I have ao isabt. imtr el the others.

Mr. Puke. says that he never in the course of his Frriente knew an elation conducted alter the &igen of that at Harwich, in which it was possible for the anconsful parties to hold the seats. No sooner had m th ar e a tiament ot 1841 assembled than Sir Denis Le t presented a petition against the return on the grounds of bribery and corniptiss. He was ad vised, however, that proof was dines% and that it would be better to pray for a void return than to ask for the seat for himself. Mr. Bagehaw also presented *petition, bat without any intention of seriously pro m/sting it. He was, as he says, much too disgusted place. "I was not going to be a party to an ezperiee litigation for • borough that I so com pleter deviled for the conduct that I had experienced theme " I did not mean to go to the elms* of a petition which, after all, perhaps, might place me in the situation of member for a borough that I did nlt core one straw fur after tLe con duct which I had experienced." Such being Mr. &phew's sentiments, and Mr. Coppock, of Cleveland row, being his agent, Mr. Parkes under took to " arrange" the matter upon the principle of securing Major Beresford 's seat for Sir Denis Le Mer chant. In the report of Mr. Roebuck's committee there is a very long and amusing history of how he set about it: coaxing here, wheedling there, humour ing one man's foibles, Battering another person's vanities, working upon a third party's fears and feel ings, until at length this master of human nature was able to dicta's " the terms of an arrangement," which Mr. Roebuck reported to have been as follows : 1. That Major Beresford should retire, by accepting the Chiltern Hundreds, within a month. 2. That dir D. Le Merchant was to be allowed to stand unopposed by Mr. Attwood and his agent. 3. That Mr. Attwood should pay by way of deposit, as guarantee, 2,6001., whisk was to be forfeited provided that the tents enured into by Mr. Attwood, on behalf of his sad Major Bereshed, were not Walled. 4. That the petitions spied the roars of the sitting members should all be isamsdistely withdrawn. The petitions were withdrawn, and all farther pro- ceedings arrested. But the compromise was no further carried out. Sir Robert Peel, with the ex treme sense of propriety which distinguishes him, refused compliance in thee. compromise cases, with all applications for the humble offioe of steward of the Chiltern Hundreds, and Major Beresford, very much, no doubt, to his own satisfaction, was consequently unable to serve her Majesty in that capacity, and obliged to serve the electors of Harwich as their representative in parliament. Presuming that Mr. Attwood's deposit of 2,6001. was handed over to Sir Denis Le Merchant, which is a matter of course under the circumstances, the total payments of that gentleman for the seats at Harwich would be B,BooL,without the legal expenses,which may be estimated at nearly 1,2001. more. Total, 10,00 W. Major Beresford contributed nothing—but, as he said himself; " the gratitude ot warm-hearte d Irishmen." It is not often that a man is so lucky as to have honour doubly thrust upon him in this fashion, and at these costs. Major Beresford'a introduction to Har wich subsequently led to his obtaining a seat fur Essex, where he was taken in band by Sir John Tyre% and returned under not dissimilar circum stances. Mr. Attwood's subsequent doings at Harwich mast be reserved for another day. IRELAND. DUBLIN JAW 22 - - - --- There was a very full meeting of the Royal Dublin Society on Saturday evening, to witting the distri bution. by Lord Clarendon, of prizes to the several sumeesful pupils in the School of Fine Arts. The company assembled was very brilliant, and comprised many of our distinguished midget. here. The p ro . carding. commenced with a very lengthy lecture on botany by the soclity's professor of that science. The sumasful pupils were then introduced to his Excel lency, who kindly noticed the most deserving amongst them, and banded the. the prizes which had been awa rded. Sir William Betham then ten dered the thanis of the society to his Excellency for his kindness in honouring them with his presence, upon which Lord Clarendon replied in an admirable speech, which elicited repeated applause : His Excel lency, alter alluding to the object of his presence, mid : " The reign of order has succeeded te that of tenor on the outfuent, and markets which were closed to us by revolu tions ars new gradually opening to our manufaetuu of which, as I before had oxiasion to observe, the agricultural products of Ireland are integral parts as mush as the wool, the cotton, and the silk. of which those manufactures are °unposed. I therefore trust that before long the staple produce of Inland will command a more remunerative price than hitherto it has unfortunately done—(hear) — and if it shall plums the Almighty in his mercy this year to bestow upon us the blessings of abundance, I trust the &a mities we have gone through will be regarded only as a pro vidential warning, and serve u a stimulus to tenoned exer tion in a rouges more conducive to national prosperity. But I am enabled to speak in a tone somewhat more akin to arteloty with respeo to that department of the Royal Dublin Society, which this evening sore particularly claims our attention. It may be in your recollection, that in the course of the few remarks which I last year made in this room, I expressed those feelings of regret which I believe to be mason to u all, that no schools of design hod yet been established in Ireland. I stated to you that on the ne m° °madam when the Chancellor of the Exchequer had bean applied Whig answer was "no effect';" and I like wise romisedthatevery exertion of mine should be used for that abject which we all have so much at heart. 717 - Plelge has been redeemed, and although the Chancellor of Pas Exchequer might, I believe, with equal, if not gutter, tenth, have last year returned the same answer of no elects," yet effeets have been hound, and school' of are about forthwith to be established, not only in Dl= bet in Belfast and Cork. (Loud applause.) And as the arrangement consequent on this determination has been con fided ty the government to me, I will take this opportunity of announcing that I propose to place the Dublin sc h ool of design in cowslips with the Royal Dublin Society." On the subject his exesliney proceeded to remark : "It is not as an unmeaning, compliment that I say the Irish are, in my opinion, far more apt to learn—that they possess much greater ingenuity and much greater natural talent than the English ; and yet when I see the improve ment that has takes plass in Englaad—the greater busty of form and perky of&MOWS that bare been introduced into our various maushoures—when I observe that which may be termed the reISaiIiSSISCO or the regeneration of taste in England, std wham I know how much it is attributable to the 1111061111116 d &ohm or rube:, perhaps, to the acknowledg e's,* of ow , densies, that they tend to produce—it is not too math Is ems* that Ireland, although deprived of the advantage of a fair start, will not be behiadband in a race of competition, where application and ingenuity, carnotite's of eye and Acuity of hand, are indispensable to enecesefully tutting beauty and utility, and adapting them to objects for whit:hams is a constant demand on *negation." (Applause.) In expatiating on the pin thablenem of proficiency in design, Lord Clanadon mentioned one instance which was lately bronahtbakire the Biatistieallimietyotamely, the manufacture of tambwored or eanameated muslin. carried on at Belfast, and empl•Tiug between 150,000 and 200,000 persons, the swum of which is entirely Appendant upon the novelty and grace fulness of pattern • and yet the whole of the designs are brought from Ore ati Britain or the 'pudgiest; and I have also been informed that upwards of 80,0001. are annually sent out of this country Par payment of the ornaments on wrappers in which lima rob are made up. (Rear.)

His Exoellency was repeatedly interrupted by load cheers, and retired amid loud lipping... Another catholic bishop,. Dr. Walsh, of Cloyne and Roes, has died. There is a rumour that Father Mathsw's will be one of the names selected. His election would give great satisfaction, and be hailed by all parties with the utmost pleasure, and a worthier wearer of the mitre it would be impossible to find, or one whose services to religion and morality are greater. Mr. Smith O'Brien recently applied to have his name, "and. r present circumstances," removed from the Limerick Institute, but Mr. W. Roche, ex M.P. I , lieseekk city, has requested Mr. O'Brien to leave Ms suss on the list still, and not to withdraw it. Great opposition is being made to the repayment a the government advances. Meetings have taken plea in more than one locality, and to show the sort lel animas which exists, I beg your attention to at Wrest from Friday evening's D ublin Mail: We learn from the Kilkenny Moderator that, in &Mimi I le the melee workhouse in that city, " there is • bonne', a ltagdanas Asylum, and • cavalry barrack, applied is tie seeeptisa of paupers ; whilst • former portion eta seffesey is immediately to be put to the same use ; gad the nee.

Yet, in the midst of these calamities, our weaken, the government of the Queen of Engla nd, are calling aloud for the repayment of Inns advanced by oompuL slay sad applied with profligate waste and extravaganc e et tbs commencement of our present sufferings. It Ireland salmi kelp two yeah sae, Is it possible that the same pa .; des who then forced as to accept it, es iodispensable for the preservation of the lives of the people, can believe that we perms means now available, not only for the support of all the helpless wretchedness which has since then been soca- Nettleton upon um, but that we are actually able, out of our saperflaities, to repay a portion of the advances out of the public coffers? It seems never to have en tered into the minds of these energetic stateemea, who think they can rule the destinies of this great empire, that " oppression maketh even wise men mad.' A mole oppressive, • more cruel, • more unjust or a more dangerous course was never yet taken against any country than that which the whig advisers of her Msjesty are bent upon pursuing with regard to Ireland. They seem to think that because a few policemen quelled a phantom of rebellion which had no real existence, there is no extent of severity which it will sot be safe for them to practise. One thing, however, we tell theta they cannot do. They cannot exact repayment of their loan from a community whom their policy and their rale have already made penniless; and if they penist in the attempt, they may plunge both themselves and the objects of their persecution in disasters, of which no man sun foresee the end. THR INDUSTRY AND BENEFACTORS OT IRILAND There is en article in the correct number of the Dublin, University Magazine, called " Ireland's Industry and Ire land's Booefactors," which merits attention. It records the niccessee in reprodnotivo employment, which in various parts of the county have been obtained by painstaking per sons. Boma of the [aft mentioned in this article are very creditable to oar people, and show that under kindly and judicious treatment the much abused Celts can work as well as the people of any ether race. The article enforces the dxtrine that the true help for Ireland ia to be found in the energetic exertion of the influential duals in developing the latent resources of the country; and it adduces a variety of evidence to show that grants from par liament are not so much wanted as Irish landlords would assert. Witnesses amongst the Protestant clergy, of all the four provinces, from Prof. Edgar, of Belfast, to the Rev. Cotter Minato°, of Ballycotton. The subjoined testi mony from the Rev. Mr. Oilden, of Newport, in the county of Mayo. is very valuable : " It is a mostremarkeble fact, and must encouraging to well-directed cottage labour, on. that it gives me great satisfaction to state, that of ova sixty thousand yards of linen, we have not lost a single piece; and it is perfectly amazing how little disposition or attempt to act dishonestly we had to complain of among the many hundreds employed, 'taking to their own miserable cottages, and at a time mien they were overwhelmed with want, • material for which there was always • ready market at hand.

PROVINCIAL. ATTEMPTED SALE OF THE MIDDLETON AND TRORNRAII ESTATES OF LORD 6V/lIRLD.-011 Thursday last the extensive estates of Lord Suffield, at Middleton end Thornhass, about five miles from Manchester on the one side, and equally distant from Rochdale on the other, were brought to the hammer at the Palatine Hotel, Manchester. The auctioneer was Mr. Fisher, who described the capabi lities end qualities of the property ; after which some bids were made, the first of which was 100 0001., by Mr. Robert Ashton, cotton manufacturer, at Hyde. Ultimately Mr. Fisher said that there was a reserve bid of 200,0001. on the property, and any advance on that of 1,0001. would be received; but otherwise the property would be withdrawn. The required offer not being made the sale was abandoned, and it is understood the property will be offered in smaller lots. The estates are freehold, comprising about 3,000 acres, including plots suitable for building purposes at Middleton, and containing also some valuable seams of cc sl. The property alio includes the valuable advowson of the rectory *Middleton, and the manorial rights. The present average rental has been about 10,0001. per annum, the average rental of the land being about 345. 6d. per acre. Lord Suffield was at the hotel, and left for Loudon, per London and North Western line, immediately the pro perty had been withdrawn. -------- MISCHIEVOUS INTERFERENCE WITH THE ELECTRIC 1 TELEGRAPH Wines.— Frequent derangements of the wires 1 1 of the Electric Telegraph Company, between Manchester and Birmingham, have caused examinations of them lately, sad it has been discovered that some parties have been guilty of twisting these wires together. On one occasion lately this had been done near Willenhall, and on Saturday, again, it was discovered by Mr. Cox, the superintendent, that the wires had been twisted together near to Newton station, a short distance from 13'rmingham. Mr. Cox, on discover ing the state of the wires at the latter ;dace, telegraphed the particulars to London, and, in compliance with instructions from head-quarters, issued biUe offering a reward of 101. for the conviction of the offenders. By the act of the company, parties guilty of such an offence are liable to conviction be • fore a magistrate, with fine or imprisonment. yoßssaisz. ALLEGED FORGERY 7- 7 Aith --- e Leeds Conrt-houee, on Friday and Saturday, a young man, named Wm. Smith, was examined, on a charge of having uttered a forged bill fa 201.—The prisoner, a young man, commenced Wanes at Leeds, in partnership with a person named Burton, under the firm of Burton, Smith, and Co., as merchants. In August they purchmed woollen cloths to the value of 1201 of Mr. Joseph Jubb, jun., of Batley. In the month of September the prisoner gave him the bill in question, drawn by Barton, Smith, and Co., on and accepted by George Getman and Ca., of Manchester. This bid wes given in lieu of one which had been sent to Mr. Jubb by post, and returned because not negatiable, from some defect in the drawing. Colman and Co. were stated to be a respectable firm in Manchester. The bill was dishonoured at maturity, and it was then ascertained that no such firm existed at Manchester as George Colman and Co.: hence the present proceeding. It was stated during the investigation that, early in September, the prisoner and his partner, Burton, had entered into partnership with Canaan, and commenced business at 7, Church-street, Manchester, the place named ' on the bill, and that that fins had become bankrupt on the 118th September. In this state of facts, and as the stridence u to the handwriting of the acceptor was vary contradictory, the case was adjourned for further investigation on Saturday next, the prisoner being in the meantime suffered to go at large on recognisanoes, himself in 2001., and two of 1001.

The friends of a person de ceased had to wait • full hour in the churchyard for a clergy man to read the burial service over the corpse ; the rector of the parish was out shooting at the time, and when the Ivor man was dying and desirous of the consolations of re ligion, the same spiritual instructor was fozhunting : " GAME LAMB AND POOR NATEB.—There is much reason to fear the winter will (wove a severe one to the rate payers as well as to the poor in the distract comprising the Stamford Union. The applications for relief this week and last were (says the Stamford Mercury) fearful In their numbers. On Wednesday there were 201 paupers in the house (being 38 more than at the eorreiponding period of last year), and orders were issued for the admisaion of several others. No less than 36 were received between the 7th and 10th Inst. Several of theee now in receipt of isarocbial re lief have become paupers in consequence of their husbands or fathers being sent to prison for pinching. NEWPORT ARCH.—On the night of the 10th int., Dart of this interesting odd Roman arch fell to the ground. It is the south portion which has given way.

Messrs. Warren and Fuller, saw!- smiths, of Westgate street, always regarded as two of the most respectable tradesmen of the place, bad bees lodged in gaol, 20,0001. bail having, it is stated, been refused. Yesterday they were brought up at the Guildhall and re-en mined before a full bench of nugistratee, chained with hay ing in their possession two silver ladle% having thereupon the marks of the Goldsmiths' Company in London, which masks have been transpoied and removed thereto from some other wares of silver, knowing the same to have been tran sposed contrary to the form of the statute in such case made and provided —T. Rough, • weigher in the assay-office of the Goldsmiths'-hall, dep osed: - I went to Bath on the 30th Dec. last, by direction of the wardens of the Goldsmiths' Company. I proceeded to the shop of Messrs. Warren and Fuller, in Westgate-street. The prisoner Fuller I saw in the shop. I then purchased eleven articles of silver ware, which bore no stamp or mark of any description. They were not marked according to law. On the 6th Jan. inst. I went again to the shop of Messrs. Warren and Fuller under the same instructions, and then purchased 34 articles not marked as required by law. Oe that oceuion I saw a silver soup ladle, now produced, which wu pointed out to me by Mr. Warren. I saw on the same occasion • great quantity of ankles not marked. I saw at once that the mark on the soup ladle was transposed. It was patent and clear upon the face of it. I also at the same time saw another article upon which I believe the mark bad been transposed . I reported these facts to the wardens. On Tuesday, the 9th Jan. inst., I went again to the shop of Myers. Warren and Fuller, in Westgatastrut, Bath, under the authority of a search warrant, sad on that occasion I took away the silver soup ladle and the silver gilt serving spoon I produce. I found also a great quantity of plate, amounting altogether with the ladle and serving-spoon, to 120 ounce; which I t o ok away. There was a great quantity of other p late which was regularly marked, and which I did not take away. It was la round numbers 3,000 or 4,000 ounces. The plate I took away was all unmarked except the two articles produced, where I conceived the marks had been transposed. I had three reasons for believing the marks on the gilt serving spoon to have been transposed. The first reason was from the fresh appearance of it, and the mark being an old mark. I mean by the fresh appearance of the article that it was modern. The next reason is the inequality of the substance athe handle ; and the other was from the obliteration of the latter and the leopard's had. I had no other reason at that time. There was •no means at that time of observing the plges where the mark was soldered in, because it was 8' ilt. I took the serving spoon to Goldsmith's HalL I have stoat ascertained that the mark has been transposed and soldered an. The date of the mark on the serving span is 1774. I first of all scraped off the gilt with a piece of emery paper. I then warmed it before a lamp with a blowpipe, and then discovered that the joining ran the whole length of the handle. That is evident to the eye, but more particularly w ith a magnifying glass. I can take upon my.. self to swear that the mark has been transposed. An assay was made in my presence of the bowl, the upper part of the shank, and the handle. The under part of the shank was not 013[0i110 , 1, as it bears the mark. The bowl four penny-weights Worse than the standard. Th e upper part of the shank was three penny-weights worse than the standard, endlthe handle was one penny-weight better than the standard. The loss of the duty to the government on the soup ladle and the serving spoon is IL 7s. 9d. I have ascertained that th e mark on the soup ladle has been soldered on. About three inches of the shank has been spliced. I should say that any person in the trade would see where the joinings were made. The bowl is half • penny-weight worse than the standard, and the upper part of the bindle is a penny-weight and a half better, and the shank next the bowl is a penny-weight barely better than the standard. The part which ban the stamp I conclude to be standard.—Cross-exa mined: By using the word ascertain I mean that I believe it, and know it. I know it by observation as a work man, and seeing where the joil:ings of the piece bearing the mark are brought on. lam a silversmith in the habit of ex amining thus sort of things daily. I have seen the transpo sition of the mark on articles purporting to bo silver before, about ail months back in London. t have a seen it worked in. By transposkion I mean removing the mark from one piece of plate to another. If an addition is made to a piece of plate I do not call it a transposition, provided that the addition is lighter than the article bearir g the mark.— W. P. Hall, eche officer of the Bath constabulary, deposed : I apprehended the prisoner Faller. I showed hum the war rant which he read. He made no reply. I told him that he must go with me to the town-hall before the magistrates. I asked him where Mr. Warren was, and he said in London, and that he expected him home this evening. He asked me to allow him to send for Mr. Thompson se there was no one to take care of the shop. I allowed him to do so. He wished to see Mr. Phyaick, his solicitor. Isent for him, and I re mained till he came.—J. Ralph, of No. 9, Widcome•placo, deposed : I am a jeweller, en apprentice to Mr. Conseil', a working jeweller, working for the jewellers in the town. He worked for Messrs. Warren and Fuller. He has worked for them ever since I have been there—that has been for about sit years. I have seen the gilt spoon now produced before. When it was first brought to Cousens's shop the handle and bawl were complete. In the handle I do not include the figure at the top. The bowl was not joined unto the shank, and the figure was not joined nntothe shank. It was the salllS slaps it 'snow. There was • piece Rut on the shank to make it stouter. The shank was in two pieces when I saw it first; when I first saw it there was the mark upon the one piece, and no mark upon the other. I believe so., I see that there has oeen a piece joined there, in the upper part wh, ra the mark is. The piece came from Mr. Fuller's. I mean Warren and Fuller's. I could not tall positively ; it might be twelve months ego. As far as I can recollect, the apostle fture was made by Mr. Cowen', but I am not certain.— IL ft. Cooler's examin^d: I have been in my father's busi nem_ok working jeweller, about wine yenta. My father worked 6r Messrs. Warren and Fuller. He has worked for them tar five, six, or seven years. I think I have seen the gilt /pan now produced before. I recognise it; it was mann leetured for Mesas. Warren and Fuller. The piece which esetains the mark when brought to us was a skewer. I saw the skewer when it was brought. It was brought to have it made thicker so as to form a handle. It was to be made into a spoon. We did nut know what shape at the time. I see a line which I suppose to be the place where it was soldered on. I believe the mirk has been soldered on. I saw the figure before I saw the skewer ; the bowl I saw separate; the bowl was added to it afterwards; we dad not make the bowl. My father was directed by Messrs Warren and Fuller to put the piece tegethez—Mr. Faller: I think it was the same. I was prima mbie my father received those orders.
