On Saturday morning a Wardmote was held in the Sdhool Room, St. diary Axe, for the purpose of electing' a tit and proper person to ACTICIUN Alderman for the WarJ of Lime-street, in the room of Ocnege Bridges, Esq., who has resigned.

So far as I am able to judge, I do not think the depressicn is as yet any thing greater then usual at this season ; but another market day will enable me to judge. As far as it has yet gone, it can bi accounted fOr from the printers having laid in all the cloth they need for the it winter patterns. and from the drapers in the country haling emnpleed their stocks.

STOOK PORT.—We cannot report favourably as to the actual sales of goods from this district; the last three Tuesd ,y's markets at Manchester having been flatter than usual.

GLASGt/W.—'f be wearing is now so far improved, that r.o work man of character and ordinary abilities finds the least difficult in getting a web. Fine lawns are at present brisker than any fabric. During the last fortnight several warehouses in town have not re fused a single lawn weaver, who applied, properly recommended. The country towns are also feeling their full share in the improve ment. Last week a respectable agent from Irvine visited town, and front one single house he received orders to employ forty new hands. There is Lot yet, bower'', the least appearance of any ad vance in the prices of weaving. It requires a very good weaver to finish a I," 4.4 lawn in a proper manner, and it is at present pail from 4d. to aid: an ell, weaving. An industrious man will be able to work four ells, which yields hint Is. 4.1. a day, or fix. a week.— From this Is. NI. must b.: deducted for the expenses of loom rent, light. dec. which leaves Gs. a week, for the support of the weaver and his family. But it must be recollected that this is the calcula fion for a very good tradesman, and very few men are at prevent earning above 3%. or 6.5. n we ek. It in surely for the interest of every person :n use every possible exertion to get rid of a business, which nisi so long afforded such miserable wages, and has but a small prospect of being soon much better. • • It is lamentable to detail the distress of the manufacturing popu lation. There being but a small chance of their condition being aeon bettered, they arc fallen into the most gloomy despondency, and are now gone callous and indifferent about public affairs. Long euffering appears to have completely broken their spirits, and de stroyed that tore of wooly independence for which they were for merly distinguished. Weavers of the most virtuous character, and whose lives have been devoted to uniform and incessant industry, fihrlink all their exertions vain to procure the means of subsistence, or to give their families that education which alone can render them of value to society or themselves, are sow zealously - attention to the mama of expotaiation to a foreiga only hope of relief. it would be difficult to coo- - idea of the misery which prevails. It is best nes.ing the human beings ' who ore to be seen emerging Icom shops , pale, wan. and shivering; and exhibiting their emaci ated features and broken down constitutions, the effects of exces sive toil, in a damp shop, fur sixteen hours a day. Their ordinary working apparel is conirletely worn nut, and unlit to withstand the severity of winter. They made a shift, during the heat of stammer, to do with any sort of clothing ; but the same tattered ferments are unfit for winter. Passing through a village, the blitmle is to be heard in operation from an early hour in the morning till 11 or 12 o'clock at night. Many families, who ate said , / dependent on the loom, are in a state bordering on starvation. They are scarcely able to command a meal a day, and are often without a fire. One Sab bath day lately, a weaver and his wife never tasted food, and their five children go only a penny loaf among them. On a represen. nation of their case, stone trilling relief was procured. Instances of this kind are occurriogin every quarter. In a house that was visited on Tuesday, the visitors saw the children rising (tom some shavings on the floor, with nothing to keep nut the•cold but an old rug. The parents slept in a fixed bed, and had only one blanket. There were in the house two chairs, one of them wanting the hack, a stool, and a fixed dresser. There was no grate. Alt ill furni ture and clothing had either been sold or was in the pawnbroker's, in order to meet the cravings of !mega. The general earnings of the weavers run from Is. to C 3. a week ; those employed at the finer descriptions of work make a little more. It is the Fenrral opittion of those best informed that the habits of the working Ouses are foot deteriorating to the condition of the neglected Irish ; while the Scotsman has not the buoyancy of spirits of the Irishman, who will make a jest of his own misery. Many of the 'tom shops are empty or partially filled, numbers of the inma . es having enlisted, or forced themselves into better trades. To the eastward of this city, there has been a considerable diminution of weavers from this cause but it is feared there cannot be such °peonage in other professiogs sa will effect a rise in the prices of weaving. As fuel, from the op-, preach of winter, is becoming indispensable, distributions of coal *ill be at necessary as meal. A ntun6o of the weavers, when the out door labour ceased, were supplied by the Relief Committee with meddles. shuttles, and brushes, to enable them to re sumo their miserable trade ; but the applications were so numerous, and so long coral:med. that the allowance was stopped. It will there. fore be out of the power of the great majority of weavers to pay any rent at the approaching term of Martinmas ; and it will be useless for the landlords to sell what mooting of the furniture, foe-the ex penses will not be cleared. Toe prosrietors of smolt houses in the suburbs have for some time been severe sufferers by the stagnation in trade ; and some of them are as notch reduced as their tenants.

From a butcher, ivho lives near the chandler's shop, he borrowed a hat, and went In search of an officer, declaring that he knew well seven or eight of the gang, and that he had frequently met them in the street, while pursuing bis profes sional avocations. Notwithstanding every exertion of six or seven officers, none Of . the offenders were found on that night or the nest day ; but from the very accurate description given by the prosecutor of their persons and dress, the four prisoners were taken, and positively identified, Mr. Fuller swearing that.DOWDe and Ore were the persons who held his arms pinioned, and searched his breeches pockets, while thepther two prisoners mood nearly opposite to him during the whole time of the robbery—so positive, Indeed, was the prosecutor wish respect to the identity of the prisoners. that he pointed them out successively in the midst of thirty others, who were brought up under suspicion of being concerned in the crime.

John Ford was put to the bar, charged with maaelairghter, in causing thedeath of the driver of a brewer 's cast, near the Smith. amoton Arms, Camden-town. From the evidence, it appeared that the unfortunate deceased, whose name (lid not appear to be well known to any of the wit. nestles, was sitting upon the shaft, and driving his cart upon his proper side of the road, and that the prisoner, who had the conduce of a faur-horse van. in attempting to pass the detested's cart, struck the wheel, and threw him dean in such a position, that the wheel of the cart pattsed along his hotly, from the hea d to the thigh, and killed him instantaneously. It being clearly proved that there was no malice, wanton driving, violence, or any apparent want of care, Mr. Justice PARR stopped the ease, and informed the Jury, that although there might have been perh aps some want of skill on the part of the prisoner, there was nothing to sustain the charge for which lie had been put upon his trial. Tbe Jury immediately returned a verdict of Not Guilty. THE nETIINAL-GREEN GANG. Janice Bishop, (Marks Dowsse, Henry Ore, alias and at ()Toe Hickman, were indicted for stopping Henry Fuller, upon the King's highway, in the parish of St. Matthew, Bethnal-green, putting him in ft:3r, and taking from his person two sovereigns, three shillinga and sixpence, a case of instrumenoi, two cases of lancets, his hat, cravat, and handkerchief. The fiacts eonneetetl with the robbery charged against these prisoners have been already fully detailed' in the yarfoua police reports, and upon the trial and conviction of two other persons during the last cession, for the same offence. As they are, however, rather singular, andpresen t a fai th ful pic ture of the character of the general Atitants of that district, as well as of the degree ofd, -and' 'Waste with which they for some time carried on .. s think it better to give brief recapitulation of the prove that Hickman offered to give evidence at rho Police 0111-e, before he was taken into custody, and to bear tes:iu.ony to previous pod character on behalf of ell the prisoners, Mr. Baron Gennow summed up the cue to the Jury. This, he Feld, wat, a ease of great importance. They had to consider the interests of the public, and do their beet to pot down what in this case had been called gang," of pursers, who assembled ler the purpose of committing depredations. They had, on the other band, to take care that the innocent monld not suffer ; anti if there was roam tindoubt, they ought to lean to the side of mercy. No imputation whatever had been, in the course of thedefence, coo upon the charac ter of Mr. Puller ; but, from the nature of this violent and atrocious wiesult, such a great number of people setting urn one man, oral the alai n and agitation which it mast have created, it was possible that )4v. Fidler might he mistaken as to the persons who committed the isebbery. ';'hey had heard the excellent character given to the pri. ottners—particularly Ore and Hickman; and it was cf great iiii• penance in this case to consider that some of the witnesses swore that they saw the robbery cotumitted, and knew the persons who committed it, and that none of, l the prisoners had anything to do with it. There was no doubt hot Mr. I uller thought that the pri soners were among those that coninii tted the robbery ; bat be might mistaken ; sod if, aftcr hearing the wgnewtea for the defence, the Jury should have a reasnrable doubt upon that head, they were hound to give the prisoners the benefit of that doubt. flis Lo:elship then recapitulated the whole of the evidence, and ecticluct d by saying that the Jury ought to convict without hesitation, or regard to conseriences. if they were (XlMptetely 53tib ded that the prisoners were guilty. But irthere was 703411 for doubt, they ought to remember the golden maxim of the Englisb tannins]' La*, viz. that it was better that any norriber'of guilty persona. ahould essay., thaq that one ialidusent person should sinftie. Die Jury retired fm upadhls of an beds, and then cense into Court, tied expressed a wish again to question Sarah Barlow, one .of the witnesses, but nothing more was elicited. Some of the Jury complatierd bitterly of the. bad accommmletion afforded them on their teoriutr. , The Judge said that ihey should have proper accommodation ; but that fir the present they might to attend to the very serious mattes in hand, and not ecerteund it with any thing else. The Jery again retired for another hour, and returned ioto-Court at 10 o'clock. and found James Bishop Guilty, and al, the rest of ' the prisoners Not Utility. NEW COURT. • Surds Johnson. a young married female, was indicted for stealing . from the person of Sa,Y.tinl Eaton ' a botcher, at Cabridgc , a bill of exchange for 100/., a Bank note for Ant, two 101. notes, and three eovoreigns. in High -street, Uxbridge, on the 23c1 of September last. The/trestle/levitated that he was proceeding down the High-sttext, abogt seven o'clock in the evening, when he met the prisoner, who asked him to walk with her, which he declined, as he was returning home. He did not remain with her more than two Mnutes, and when lie refused walking with her, she caught hold of hie arm end wished hint to treat her; be, however, still said he would have nothing to do with herapll she then quitted him, but site had scarcely crossed the reste*ltten he mimed •Itis money, which was contained in a CartVainlX4, pc immediately exclaimed, " You beta robbed me of Mr money."

She heard the prosccetor say that he had been robbed the preceding evening of some notes and sovereign'. On hearing Sir.

He (Mr. Theoriser) would, as briefly as poiltible, state, without gnr nish, the whole of the case to diem. The Plaintiff in this sr was an extensive hop_factor in the Borough, M which Lust ess he had amswied a considerable fortune, and wishing a !idle rela ation after the fatigues of the day, as well es for the improvement of the of ." -.tined on purchasing a country residence the many be had ' and pre for it :Amounted to we of the as well as - - end Croy. le had determines , upon I that purpose selected two act.:l4 of y of the plaintiff, and the selection the Gamut is. slaters had made was the most public, and therefore valuable Inlti of his taste, it being a frontage ; that is, in the highway, on the main road to Croydon. As the Jury were well acquainted with I the spot, as well as the value of the land in the neighbourhood, he made no question but they would award those damages to which they thought the plaintiff entitled. He should now proceed to cal his witneeithes. _ Mr. eirantham is a surveyor at Croydon ; surveyed the land in question by order of the plaintiff; it skirted the road from Broad green to Alecomb, which led into the town of Croydon ; it is a good frontage road ; in his estimation it was worth, at an average purehatte, 5331. per acre; the two acres would therefore amount to 1,46131., and to a further sum of 100/. for deteriorating the other property. The property selected is by far the best part of the estate. Ile had also made an extra valuation upon the brick bridge and road of 2111., and for the timber (saplings) 51., making in the whole 1,1991. Crosaexamined by Mr. CowLer —lt depended upon cicrum stances whether or not the erection of a church would improve the plaintiff's estate, and other surrounding relates and lands. Mr. Blake, a surveyor, residing at Croydon, deposed that be had valued the property in question, and his estimate amounted in the whole to 1,1351. Cross-examined by Mr. Dansnwatt—An estate purchased in tote would be purchased touch mere reasonable than in parcels; besides, parcelling off an estate deteriorated the value of the pro peety. Sir. Edmonds, a surveyor in London, deposed that he had been down to view the estate, and his estimate of the two acres alone amounted to 1,0151. Mr. DUUMMOND, Solicitor to the Croydon Canal Company, deposed that the land purchased by the Company was bought at a very high rate. Mr. C,OWLEY adaressed the Jury in mitigation, Ile observed the defendants thought it their duty to take care of the public interest, and not give way to private lucre. The parties whom he had the honour to rapreaent wished to act fairly, and would do so to the beat of .their skill; and to that effect surveyors, men of ability and integrity, men who would give their evidence with the attietest im partiality. had been and estimated the property • an offer had been made to the plaintiff, such a one as was cansi dered full and fair, which he declined, but bolstered up the value of his property by saying, the tithes and land.tax were redeemed ; if it was so, it had been redwood by the former owner, and then again his Learned Friend set up the local . situation and public thoroughfare from Ilzighton • ' " • NATIONAL POLITY AND FINANCE, There is one part of the plan upon which we have oaten sat magiverted, and winch seems to offer essential benefits to the - tenli:ilisity,itrTdh.ennnonteisnaliteionretofs issued oretu generally ate for dofare oftr h o e use of every portion of the empire. and the smaller flees, localized for the use of (their respective districts.

Its qualities as a pasepost ahoul e be cantrived to identify the owner. so that if' he lost hie voucher 1. ,should be mere waste paper to any other bearer: and as a letter r, credit it should be still furthir guarded, in order to prevent forgerf'. We may here recapitulate, for the take of being more clear, understood, that the sterling paper currency, which it is proncssd %reestablish, would consist, r n ' l l . ee i First, of Notes of the sandiest denominations, rani limited to pr e . sesibed eirthrs in proportion to their amounts : by this preceneon, the paper being small in quantity, localised and familiar, it dace appear to us that to attempt to forge it must be not only umworii. able, but an act of desperation. Secondly, of Notes of the larger denominations, from fivers':lnds to the highest *um ; also, in a certain degree, limited. to prescribed circles, in proportion to their amounts : these circles, it is evident, inle;omerrtpilsalloyfeii" the ran might be allowed a wider rettius in consequence of the facility with wish large notes can be traced, so that the critic of forgery woeld still, with regard to them, be attended by Increased difficulties and danger. But, Thirdly, to preclude the passibility of inronvsniercy front any limitations, the Road or Travelling Note we hav e a b ove at . tempted to desc ribe has been devised: and we mar perhaps be al. lowed to at; that, by similar expedients, souse of the evil, which beset the correney of the country, as it exists at this moment, might be very materially lessened, if not entiedy strutted. In this Gazette (reserving fir hereafter the further explanation and application of the principles we have laid down), we are desis rous of offering a few remarks on the important point which occurs in all questlone of the kind we are discussing—namely, the convertibi lity of all paper currency into gold. This is strenuously contended the by a number of able writers, and it may be granted that a con siderable prejudice or partiality exists in its favour; whkh disposes us to meet the argument candidly and plainly. With such a cue. renry as we propose, doubly or quadruply secured on what ie were ralmible titan gold, we do rot fed that there is the least occasion for the additional security of the precious metal. But if we are told that this would satisfy all minds, we are prepared to show that even the responsibility of bullion mi ght be remitted in the country to answer for its national paper. This, however, would require re strictions, management, laws. We hold +list there could be to panic or run upon our notes t but if there were, if it could be al leged that they were unsorted, Ant the land Of funded property guaranteeing teem was insutEcient, then we say, let them be pre sented at the place of their issue, and redeemed by the gold and silver deposited for ever In the nation's coffees and treasuries. That ' these metals can be as readily procured and stored as any other commodities, pennies no demising:ration ; and a capital in them adequate to secure the paper currency from depreciation, even in opinion, would be a fe a the r i tt th e erase of Great Britain's wealth and resources. The acqttipition and preservation of such a capital, and its applicability to foreign exigencies.. wars, &c. &c., indepen dently of its being held in trust for the currency, can be demon. spitted with parfeet conclusivetiees and till we may eater mere into detail, we dismiss the subject. There is only one thing more which remains foe us (within our bounds) to mention at prettent,the raising of a revenue upon the issues of the national notes. We should propose that upon the whole credit taken, a per centrtge should be paid by the customer, somewhat less (as the Legislature might determines than is now paid throughout the country wherever money is raised. There could, therehne. be no objection to it in the general system ; and the revenue yielded, after abundantly supporting the expenses of the establishment, would enable Government to repeal the most onerbus of the assessed taxes. It thus appears, that individual or private customers of the N a . tional Rank woul d be in a better situation than they are at present. and able to raise money at a lets) cost ; And with regard to bankers themselves, either in England or Scotland, who obtained credits, it may also be shown, that they would enjoy other advantages pointed oat In thedetails of the new plan, into which. however, it bats not eet been the object of these short papers (devoted entirely to an out. )(tit of its leading principles) to enter. Hereafter we shall take thews up, and prove, as we trust, the statement with which we set out, tisat they are the very essence of the ay:tem.—Literary Ga zette, Oct. 28, 18:6. THE ARMY.
