SPIRIT OF THE PUBLIC JOURNALS. Mr. O'Connell's letter to William Sharman Craw ford, Esq., on the subject of tithes, is calculated to produce a considerable sensation in this country as well as in Ireland. It has startled some of our contempo raries, who, though used to Mr. O'Connell's evolu tions, are yet not a little astonished at the pranks he is now playing. It may be said of Mr. O'Con nell, as it was once, we believe, said of Mr. Cobbett, he is too honest a man for this world. He is not the only man to whom unjustifiable designs occasionally suggest themselves ; but mot men, possessed of a tithe of Mr. O'Connell's penetration, are cautious how they give utterance to thoughts which must `revolt all who listen to them. His directions as to the manner in which Mr. Stanley's Tithe. Act may be evaded, have been termed "a complete manual of cheatery, and a code for the perpetration of wrong, which deserves to be studied by every master petty fogger in the kingdom." Mr. Littleton's bill would have relieved the parsons and lay-impropriators from the difficulties in which they are involved by Mr. Stanley's Act ; and Mr. O'Connell may almost be ex cused for the language he holds to the opponents of that Bill. " Yet it was such a change, so favourable to the parsons—so satisfactory to any men of meek and Christian spirit, that an Archbishop of the hideous name of Beresford, and the soft and smooth Recorder of Dublin, kicked out, and consigned the author of it to all manner of evil." Mr. O'Connell appeared to be satisfied with the arrangements of Mr, Littleton's Bill. He now, however, tells us that this is all a mis take, and he tells us also that the honest and reflecting part of the Ministry must be of his opinion : " The honest and reflecting part of the present Ministry must, therefore, perceive that tithes must be abolished, — totally, unequivocally abolished—abolished without delay or condition. " It may indeed be objected to me that I myself supported and enforced a different plan—that I demanded and obtained the suppressien of only two-fifths of the tithes--and that, there fore, I acquiesced in the continued and perpetual existence of the remaining three-fifths. " The facts were not accurately stated—the inference alto gether without foundation. " It is quite true that I demanded for the present but a partial reduction—it was three-fifths of the tithes. Why did I ask for no more ? Why did I not demand the abolition of the entire ? Because I had no chance, in the first instance, of getting the entire abolished, and you perceive that I was refused the extent which I asked, being three-fifths, and only got from the House of Commons two-fifths. I ILI, there fore, not the least prospect or possibility of destroying the en tire; and because I am one of those who is and have been always ready to accept of any instalment, however small, of the debt of justice due to the people—the real national debt—. I have been, and am ready to accept of any instalment of that debt, determined to go on and look for the remainder as soon as the first instalment should be completely realized. " It is totally untrue that I acquiesced in the perpetual con tinuance of the remaining three-fifths of the tithes." The arrangement " having," he says, " been frus trated by the folly and wickedness of the Orange Con servatives in and out of the House of Lords, I am perfectly free from any of the trammels of that arrange ment ;" and he now thinks that "no compensation should be made to any incumbent who has not Epis copalian Protestant parishioners, and then only in the ratio of the comparative number of such parishioners." That Mr. O'Connell's advice will be taken as to the manner in which Mr. Stanley's Act may be evaded, we have no doubt ; but is this to be wondered at, un der all the circumstances of the case ? The Standard will have it that Mr. O'Connell is merely " the embo died spirit of Irish popery." " An error, however, a gross and fatal error it is to suppose that Mr. O'Connell is anything but the embodied spirit of Irish popery ; that he is not an incarnation of the treachery as well as of the ambition, of the falsehood as well as of the persecut ing spirit, of the greediness as well as the intolerance of his sect. Let it be remembered that this man has not lately ex hibited himself to his brother Papists for the first time. His falsehood and treachery have for years been obvious to every Irish Papist ; and yet they have been not the occasion of any loss of popularity amongst Papists, but in fact the passport to their favour. The more he has betrayed, the more obvious has been his contempt for truth, the more he has grown in estima tion with the Priests and their slaves. * * * No ; the Roman Catholics did not participate in a sympathy which Mr. O'Connell never entertained. But they partici pated in his falsehood, and sympathized in his desire to cheat ! And are we to be told that the people, who, with all the fla grant evidences of Mr. O'Connell's treachery and falsehood shining for years before them, put this man forward as their representative, confide in him as their leader, and pay him tri bute as their sovereign—are we to be told that they are not as treacherous and false as he ?—that Mr. O'Connell is not Irish Popery, and that Irish Popery is not Mr. O'Connell ?" Is there a difference between Irish Popery and other Popery , ? If there be a difference, that difference of course is in the qualities which the Irish people com municate to Popery. If Irish Popery be the same as Popery in general, then we are required to believe that all the Catholic nations of Europe are treacherous, am bitious, false, greedy, intolerant, &c. &c. What a pity, then, that there was not more Ch urc h ro bb er y i n Europe ; for then we should have had more of the Reformation. Every tyro in history knows that the Protestant Reformation spread with rapidity as long as Princes obtained the spoils of the Church by be coming Protestants ; but that from the moment a treaty was concluded for preventing Princes from seizing Church lands and tithes on becoming Protestants, the conversions to Protestantism instantly ceased, as if by miracle.—Morning Chronicle. A case at Marylebone Police-office on Saturday shows how the new Poor Law may be turned to the punishment of want, notwithstanding the arguments to, the contrary of its best advocates. According to the report— " Three poor children, a girl and two boys, of very miserable appearance, were charged with having been found crouched together on the steps of a gentleman's door in Wimpole-street. The children were taken into custody by a policeman, to whom they stated that they had no home to go to, and that none of them had tasted food for three days. " Mr Twilley, the master of Marylebone poor-house, who was present, stated that the prisoners had been all inmates of the workhouse, but had thought proper to abscond from thence. " The children admitted that such was the fact ; but not liking the treatment they had received, they wandered out, in hope of being able to procure some employment, but being dis appointed, they were reduced to the state of starvation in which the policeman found them. " .Mr. Shutt (to Mr. Twilley)—Take them into the work house again, keep them upon bread and water for a week, and mind that you flog them severely; and if they don't behave better, bring them to me, and I'll give them a month each at the treadmill. You need not be afraid (added the magistrate), the new Poor Law Local Act authorizes you to flog and im prison the paupers under your care, for m'sconduct, the same as if they were in the House of Correction. " Mr. Twilley then left the office with the children, pro mising to follow the worthy magistrate's advice." The friends of the new Act protested that its seve rities were not intended to fall on helpless poverty, but on those who had the ability but not the will to work, and that the aged and impotent should have indulgent treatment. The helplessness of childhood differs in no essential respect from the helplessness of age, and in the above instance we see it fall under the rigours of the Act. The declared object of the new law is to render the workhouse so irksome, that none will live in it who can get bread out of it. These poor children did precisely what it is the policy of the new law to induce the children of a larger growth to do. " Train up the child in the way he should go," says' the wisest of men. Make the workhouse so irksome that 'all may fly from it, says the Legislature. Flog the child who flies from it, says the Magistrate. This is a fine early lesson for young paupers—that it is a very wicked thing to run from the workhouse in search of employment. Young people under such instruction should be fixed to the workhouse for life. Habituated to the treatment, and bearing in their early impressions the smart for flying from it, why should they ever desire to quit the place? .—or having quitted it, and found labour more irksome than the privations to which they have been taught submission, how readily they must be prepared to re turn. te Mind that you flog them severely," says the humane Magistrate in the case of the little fugitives from the Marylebone poor-house. " You need not be afraid, the new Poor Law Act authorizes you to flog and imprison the paupers under your care for miscon duct, the same as if they were in the House of Cor rection." And what is the misconduct for which they are to be flogged severely? The flight in search of employment. So the new act is turned to the pu nishment of the very effect which it tends to pro duce. To the man, " the masterful or valiant beg gar," in the old phrase, the Magistrate would say— " It is a shame that you should come back to your parish instead of seeking for employment." To the child he says—." You little villain, I will teach you not to run away from the poorhouse ; I will teach you to be content with its fare and restraints ; I will teach yon" to live an bread and water, and to sigh for no thing more ; I will scourge all thoughts of work and independence out of your head ; I will teach you to sit down content with a pauper's lot until you are a man able to earn a livin g by the toil of your hands and the sw ea t o f your brow, and then, the tree growing as the twig's inclined, this very act which now authorizes a severe scourging for the misconchict of flying from the poor house,—this same act will teach you, I say, to fly from the workhouse as you would fly from wretchedness and degradation ; it will teach you to be discontented with the pauper's fare and privations ; it will teach you to go forth and hunger rather than to live on the bitter bread of pauper ism, and to prefer any state to that of parochial support ; it will divest idleness of all ease, and make you fly to work and independence for refuge ; it will teach you that pauper's lot is intolerable, that it is the lowest, the most degraded, the most comfortless state of human existence ; but this is the lesson for your manhood : at present the business is to flog you severely by authority of the aforesaid Act, for flying from the poor-house in search of employ ment." The kingdom of Heaven should indeed he the inheritance of the poor, seeing the lot laid out for them in this world. In infancy the course of torment ing begins. The pauper child is scourged for seeking labour and independence, the pauper man is ground, and squeezed, and pinched, on suspicion of declining labour and independence. To discover whether he is a pauper of choice or of necessity, he is to be put to the question, not by the thumb-screw, but by the belly screw, under the direction of the grand inquisitors at the Central Board ; and under such pressure if he yields, though guiltless of idleness, and say, " Fling open your doors, and let me forth to live " as I may," should he yet lack employment, and lay his weary and famished body under a hedge, then comes the law upon him for sleeping in the open air as a vagabond, an overt act of poverty, and he is committed to "grind in the prison house." Thus in the workhouse he is subjected to every privation and irksome restraint, because it is sup posed that his poverty may be of choice, and that he could procure the means of support if he would labour for it ; but where an act of the last misery and destitution puts it beyond a doubt that his hands can not help him, and that necessity has flung him to the earth, then the law punishes him for the very evidence of his extreme wretchedness under the name of va grancy. In the workhouse he is to be pinched and vexed because he may be one of those who, if willing, are able to support themselves by industry (for such is the principle on which the new law designs a severe treatment) ; but should he try and fail, he falls under punishment, b ecause , having tried and failed to get employment, he is homeless and houseless. What a work for the illustration of the saddest realities would be the life of a pauper, including the vexatious inter ferences with the comforts and pleasures of the poor, but mainly showing how he is made what he is, and how he is dealt with by law, knocked about by poor and vagrant acts, like a shuttlecock between battledores, sent to the house of correction for the sign of the utter most poverty, and turned out again with the poverty that caused him to be sent in uncorrected, and repro ductive of the same offence. "Do any thing but go to the parish," says the policy of one law. "Go to the parish rather than sleep in the open air, or you shall be sent to prison," says the law in another voice. " Out of the frying-pan into the fire" is indeed the pauper's blessed lot. Under the new system, when, by the excellence of the regulations, he is driven out of the workhouse, unable longer to endure its priva tions and contrived irksomeness, he is punished as a vagrant—that is, if he be a proper object for parochial support, willing but unable to get work and a roof to shelter him from the weather.—Times. His association with the Whig Ministers of late has not had the effect of improving the manners, temper, or language of Mr. O'Connell ;—he is still the coarse and violent demagogue—the boisterous political bully —the implacable Romish bigot--the Thersites of Ire land's mobocracy, whose virulent haranges display the Jesuit morality of St. Omer's, dressed out in all the eloquence of Billingsgate. To look for facts and ar guments in his letters to his proteg, Lord Duncan non, or his infatuated dupes the Roman Catholic " peo ple of Ireland," is a vain labour. In the speeches and writings of this child and champion of Romish into lerance, hardihood of assertion supplies the place of fact, and a copious vocabulary of abuse does away with all necessity for argument. Why need he take the trouble of reasoning with his adversaries who can al ways denounce them ? Why need he try to convince who hopes to be roon able to compel, if not to exter minate, with his seven millions of " hereditary bonds men" at his heels, ready to " strike the blow" when ever he finds courage enough to bid them do it ? Why should he be very anxious or particular in making out a strong case to justify incessant agitation, when his strongest case is his ascendancy over an ignorant and bigotted multitude, whose passions and prejudices he must pamper to secure their obedience ? It is not very long ago that this most virtuous and consistent pa triot attempted to wheedle the Orangemen of Ireland into his designs touching the repeal of the union, and the consequent separation of the two countries. If the Orangemen, who are the descendants of those who at the Boyne—at Aughrim, and the memorable siege of Derry, overthrew the united forces of the French King and the Irish branch of the Papacy, had been, so silly as to have acceded to Mr. O'Connell's overtures, and joined him in the crusade against English connection, they would have found themselves in the condition of the horse in the fable, which having allowed the man to put a bridle in his mouth and a saddle on his back, and mount him, booted and spurred, to hunt down the obnoxious stag in the adjoining pasture, discovered that when the hunt was over his own slavery had but begun, and that though the stag was chased away his crafty rider only rcpliedby vigorous applications of the whip and spur to his attempts to shake him off. It was at a season when the Orangemen were dissatisfied with the English Government, and when they had reason to be dissatisfied, that the repeal agitator made his overtures, and even went so far as to attend a civic dinner in Dublin, and drink the toast detested by all Roman Catholics, of " the pious and immortal memory." But though the Orangemen complained of the treatment which they received from the government, yet they stood firmly, as the Irish Protestants have always done, by British connection—they rejected with scorn the alliance of the repeal-demagogue, with whom the Melbourne Ministry so lately fraternized, and now provoked, and mortified by the rejection of his treach erous alliance, and their desperate fidelity to the British connection and Constitution, how does he subscribe them ? Here are his words : .6 The Orange faction is certainly, in point of intellect or understanding, the most deplorably degraded that ever excited the contempt and scorn of mankind. The genuine atrocity of bloody bigotry shines through the dismal nonsense of their orations ; but they cannot enrich or even diversify them with one sentiment, or even one phrase, showing taste, talent, or information. Then as to their moral qualities, what are they ? The preaching up of wholesale proscription, massacre, and extermination. They call themselves Christians ; —they preach up doctrines almost too bad for the eternal enemy of mankind to suggest to human depravity. ' Bayonets and blood ! bay onets and blood 1' from their text and commentary. Their laymen vie with their Parsons in ruthless atrocity, and it be comes doubtful which of the two are the more ready to preach rapine, minder, and desolation. The infernal spirit of reli gious persecution reigns over the whole, and renders the Irish Orangeists the most depraved as well as the most despicableof the human race." Now M. O'Connell had not less than thirty years' personal and political experience of the Orangemen, from the time of his entry into public life until that period when he solicited their alliance, and endea voured, by the meanest artifices, to induce them to fraternize with him ; but, having failed in that object, he now describes them as " the most depraved as well as the most despicable of the human race." Every body will recollect that one of the " securities" for the Protestant religion, which the Duke of Wellington and Sir Robert Peel gave to the people of England when they opened to Roman Catholic legislation the doors of the Protestant Constitution, was that Roman Catholic priests were not to assume the titles of Bi shops, &c. Never have those titles been more osten tatiously assumed than since the passing of the Act which gave to Roman Catholics political power, and more especially since the abolition of ten Protestant Bishoprics in Ireland. In Mr. O'Connell's last letter to " his people," speaking of working the Whig Ec clesiastical Commission against the Church by means of the Irish priesthood, he says, " I take this method also of respectfully appealing to my Lords the Ca tholic Bishops of the various dioceses to countenance my request." Thus the exaltation of the Romish system, and the ferocious denunciation of the Irish Protestants, go on swimmingly together.—Morning Herald. In The Sun of Tuesday last there appeared-a letter from a correspondent of that journal on the subject " of Crimes and Punishments in the Army," and con taining also " Hints to the Military Commission." We have transferred that letter to our columns of this day, not on account of the soundness of its views, or the weight of its arguments—for in both these respects we reckon it to be somewhat deficient—but on account of the facts stated in it, and the strong reasons which they appear to us to furnish in favour of the total abo lition of corporal punishments. The author of the letter considers, it will be seen, that the petition presented some time ago by Mr. Tennyson to the House of Commons has given the death-blow to that execrable system of flogging to which the soldiers of the British army have hitherto been subjected ; but although we agree with him that public opinion has been so loudly and decidedly pro nounced against it, as to render it impossible that it should be much longer upheld, we must warn both him and others from deeming the victory secure until it has actually been accomplished. There are still individuals, we regret to confess it, both in and out of the army, whose minds are so blinded by pre judice, or whose hearts are so steeled against the in dulgence of humane feelings, as to see no sound dis cipline but that which results from the use of the lash—no means of punishment but that of torturing the back of the soldier—no chance of reformation, but from the infliction of bodily suffering—who see in the soldier, only the most hardened, unfeeling species of brute animal, wholly devoid of the finer feelings of our nature, and alive only to those sensa tions which reach him through his bodily organs. Such persons, we own, are not now so numerous as they once were ; but unfortunately, they happen to oc cupy influential stations—they are ever ready to defend the application of the lash,—for what they lack in argument they make up in zeal—and hence, notwithstanding that the public mind has long been made upon the impolicy and brutalizing nature of more corporal punishments, those who think with us on the subject must not relax their efforts until the enemy has been routed—the field been fairly won, and the blood-stained flag been trampled in the dust. But it is to the facts stated in the letter of the corre spondent of The Sun that we are most anxious to point the attention of our readers ; and facts more confirma tory, on the one hand, of the view which we have al ways taken of the present system of military punish ments, or more condemnatory, on the other, of the ob stinacy of its advocates, it is scarcely possible to ima gine. " The lash," says the letter, "• is the thing for insuring discipline among British soldiers ;" but what kind of discipline ? Why, according to the statement of Mr. Ellice, a discipline, which passes through courts-martial, in the course of one year, no fewer than a fifth of the whole British army !—that is to say, out of about 87,000 men, no fewer than 18,000 were tried within the last year by courts-martial for different breaches of discipline !" Whether they were all found guilty or not signifies nothing—it is sufficient for our purpose, because it furnishes sufficient proof of the disorganization and want of discipline in the army, that there were prima facie grounds for holding so many courts-martial, and that all this want of disci pline, inattention to duty, and absence of due subordi nation, occurred, notwithstanding the unrestrained and vigorous use of the lash. Can a stronger argument be adduced against its future application ? In the policy, as recommended by the correspondent of The Sun, of mulcting the pay of the soldier, instead of mulcting his back of its flesh and blood, as well as in the establishment of condemned regiments, for the reception of notorious and incorrigible offenders, we cordially concur. We have no doubt that even, recruited as regiments now generally are, out of the least industrious and well-behaved classes of the community, much good would result from the adoption of a system—that the soldier would become more careful of his conduct, and more attentive to his duty—and that the dread of being banished to the ranks of a condemned regiment, would effectually pre vent the commission of those greater crimes, of which the British army occasionally exhibits some frightful instances. We also agree with the writer of the letter, that one of the best means of encouragement which can be held out to a well-conducted soldier, is to shorten the service which entitles him to his discharge with a pension ; but it is neither the only nor the best means of encouragement, and we are frank to own that we despair of seeing the British army so efficient, so orderly, so well-disciplined, and so respectable as it ought and might be, until the purchase of commis sions has been wholly done away with, and the honours and emoluments of the army be rendered free and open to all who choose to enter it. This was the system of Napoleon, and if it worked well under him, why should it not also work well here ? At present the British soldier has no encouragement to exert him. self. The path of honourable ambition is fairly closed against him. A private he enters, and a private he must remain. He may have the virtues of a Turenne, or the genius of a Napoleon—but they can avail him nought. The shouldering of the musket is his occu pation, and beyond that occupation he cannot soar. Is this as it should be ? May the path of honourable ambition be safely open in all other walks of life, and yet denied to the soldier who perils his life ? Or ra ther, is it not reasonable to infer, that if the British soldier had the certainty of rising in his profession through meritorious conduct, that certainty would ope rate the same beneficial effects upon him as it does upon all others.—Morning Advertiser. A match at cricket was played on the Manchester Ground on the Ist instant between eleven members of the Club of that town against the garrison of Manchester and the depot of the 64th Regiment now stationed at Stockport. This match ex cited considerable interest in consequence of the unrivalled success the Manchester Club have had this season, which has well earned them the name of the " Invincibles." The crowd assembled at an early hour, when the splendour of the day and the large attendance of the ladies produced a scene truly inte resting, and one which could not fail in exciting the most lively emotions in the breast of - every admirer of this noble game. Before the commencement of the game the betting was 4 to I against the military, and at the termination of the first innings of the Manchester Club 1 to 3 was freely taken that the Man chester won in one innings. The superior batting of Mr. Tra pand, of the 28th Regiment, and Allen of the 34th, excited universal applause, and soon made the givers of the long odds quake for their cause. The fielding of the military was truly splendid, and that of the Manchester Club equally good. In short, a finer day's sport was never seen on that ground, nor was there ever a game better contested or played with greater cordiality on both sides. The result was, that the garrison beat the Manchester eleven by one over and eight wickets to go down. ROOKWOOD.—The second edition of this popular and original Romance appears opportunely at the present time, when the theatres are about to dramatise it. One of the striking features of Rookwood is its variety in incident and situation, some of its passages rival in fatal and mysterious events the style of Maturin's best production, while the terror is relieved by almost every degree of liveliness and comedy, as exhibited in the reckless Irishman, the members of the gipsy horde, the bold yet withal gentle highwayman Turpin, and numerous minor lights that come and go while the main action of the fearful story proceeds. The following inscription has been placed on the olub of Gaspard Hauser : Hic jacet Gasparus Hauser zEnig,ma Sui temporis Ignota nativitas Occulta mors MDCCCXXX.M. The failure of the house of Bentley, Dear, and Co., has not been so fatal in its consequences amongst the ribbon manufacturers as might have been expected, and the fact proves that our trade is in a happy state of healthiness, so far as the solvency of our manufacturers is concerned. It also shows that a considerable degree of prud ence preva il s i n the manufacture—a quality which cannot be too highly appre ciated, for it is of the utmost value in order t o p revent over trading, one of the greatest errorsinto which a man of busi ness can fall. If an individual should inadvertently place himself in a situation in which he must make sales, the re sult is always injurious under every circumstance which can arise, but it is most particularly ruinous in a mar k et i n wh i c h the buyers are but few, as is the case in ours.—Coventry Herald. THREE WONDERS IN LESMAHAGOW.—The good folks of this parish have been lately amused by having at one time three virgin brides each fifty years of age I—two stage coaches daily from Glasgow to Abbey Green 1 I—and a union and strike by the beggars ! 11—Glasgow Courier. THE. SUN, LONDON, MONDAY, OCTOBER 6, 1834. COURT OF BANKRUPTCY, OcT. 4. COMMISSION OF THE CHRAPSIDE BANKRUPTS. An examination, which occupied several hours, took place before Mr. Commissioner EVANS, at the Bankruptcy Court, Basinghall-street, relative to the forgeries lately discovered to have been committed by Mr. John Bentley, of the firm of Bentley, Dear, and Richardson, of Cheapside. The first witness who was examined was Mr. Baugh, a clerk in the banking establishment of Vere and Co., who produced a promissory note for 10,0001., drawn by Bentley, Dear, and Co., in favour of Gumersall and Co., and payable three months after date ; he stated that the house of Vere and Co. received it on the 20th of Sep tember, from the firm of Gumersall and Co. Mr. Thomas Bedford Gumersall, of Lombard-street, bill broker, a member of the Society of Friends, was then exa mined on his affirmation, and he stated that between the 10th and 22d of September he received from the house of Bentley and Co. bills to the following amount : One bill for 995 15 0 One bill for 992 16 11 One bill for 1,044 0 0 Two bills for 10,0001. each The two bills for 10,000/. each were made on the 18th of last month, and, under an arrangement with Mr. Dear, it was agreed that he (witness) should receive the two bills for advances that he had made. He did not recollect mak ing any advances to Mr. Bentley when the two notes were given, but a debit appears in the cash-book of 1,0001. hav ing been paid by their house on the 18th of Sept., after the notes were given. _ . Mr. AsiiußsT, the solicitor by whom the examination was conducted, then put the following questions to Mr. Gumersall, and obtained the annexed answers : Now, have you not stated that these notes were given when you signed and gave to Mr. Bentley a guarantee to a person named Barr, who had condemned a large quantity of Mr. Bentley's paper ?—I do not recollect that I made any such statement. Did you give Mr. Bentley a guarantee for Mr. Barr ? Yes, I gave a guarantee for 9,0001. or 10,0001. I believe the guarantee was given on the day before the notes were drawn—returned to me—and given again by me either the day before or the day after. Witness then stated that he understood from his partner that the 1,0001. advanced to Mr. Dear on the 18th, was in part consideration of the two notes for 10,0001. each, which had been made by Mr. Bentley. We (said the witness) received the bills for general purposes on account, and not for any specific moneys that we had advanced. Do you recollect the interview that took place between Mr. Dear, Mr. Richardson, and yourself, on the 15th of September, and their stating to you the suspicions which they entertained of their partner ; and that they would stop the house, unless your house would advance the 7,0001. excess of bills, held by your house ?—I do not recollect it. Can you affirm that no such communication was made by them to you on the day in question ?—No, I cannot. Do you not recollect that the fact of their suspicions of Mr. Bentley, was then stated to you ?—Yes, I wish to qualify that. I have no recollection of dates at all as to that particular date ; it was stated in my presence, but not stated to me. Will you state what the question was ?—To the best of my recollection I asked them whether they had the least suspicion of my being in any way cognizant of the frauds, by means of forged bills, said to have been committed by Mr. Bentley, having heard that they entertained suspicions upon that point. Now, were not the whole of your transactions with Mr. Bentley, to w hi c h you h ave spoken on this examination, after the interview in question ?—No, I - cannot state—it is impossible. Which of these transactions occurred before this inter view ?—As I have before stated, Mr. Dear received one thousand pounds from our hands, on account of their firm, for some bills that, I believe, were brought by him or their clerk. With the exception mentioned in your last answer, were not the whole of the transactions with Bentley, or Bentley and Co., to which you have alluded in this examination, after the interview ?—I can decide upon the whole, except one lot, that is the first, for 9951. 15s. which appears in our rough cash book to have been left with us on the lath. The other transactions were after the interview, to the best of my recollection ; but I have no doubt about it. Now, as you admit that you know that Mr. Bentley was at the time suspected by his partners, will you now affirm you have no recollection of what passed in conversation at the interview when he made two 10,000/. notes in your counting-house, in your presence, and signed them in the name of his firm ?—I cannot recollect positively ; only the usual conversation took place that is used between parties who bring bills for discount and parties who procure ad vances of money. Do you admit that the last answer, upon reflection, is all the information that you can give as to the transaction ? —Yes it is, to the best of my recollection. Will you affirm that Mr. Dear and Mr. Richardson did not, at the interview, when Mr. Ashurst stated his suspi cions as to Mr. Bentley, also state that they would not consent to go on with these suspicions on their minds, un less your house would advance the necessary supplies to pay all their bills ?—I will certainly not affirm that they did not say so. Do you believe that they did not say so ?—I believe they did not say so in my presence. Did you communicate to Mr. Dear or Mr. Richardson any thing relative to the making of the two 10,0001. notes, and of Mr. Bentley's application for cash upon them before Mr. Bentley absconded :—No ; I did not. Do you know when Mr. Bentley did abscond ?— , No, only by hearsay. When did you see him last ?—On Sunday, the 21st of September. Where did you see him first on that day ?—At my pri vate house at Cambridge -terrace ; he came there. At what time in the morning ?—I think it was about eleven o'clock. Now state what passed between you and him when he first came to you on the Sunday morning ?—He wished me to devise means to enable him to withdraw the amount of paper which he had previously stated was in the market of a fraudulent description—namely, bearing fraudulent ac ceptances only ; that was the purport of his visit entirely, and which I was aware that both his partners wished to have done. Was that the whole substance of what then passed ? Yes. What did you do or say ?—I went out with him. Where did you next see him ? Mr. Wood, the solicitor, who appeared on the part of Mr. Gumersall, objected to the course of examination. The course of examination was to implicate the witness with the absconding party in a criminal charge, and was contrary to all practice. The COMMISSIONER, admitted the objection, and directed that the question should be struck out. Examination resumed—Did Mr. Bentley at any time previous to the 15th of September give you a list of bills of exchange for the purpose of your taking up the bills mentioned in that list ? Mr. Wood again objected, and the witness was ordered to withdraw. After some discussion between the Solicitor to the fiat and the Solicitor for the party under examination, Mr. Wood requested permission to confer with his client, and left the room for that purpose. After a very short in terval he returned with Mr. Gumersall, who, addressin g the Commissioner, said, " My professional ad v i ser , M r . Wood, has instructed me not to give answers to certain questions that may be put to me respecting my knowledge of the bills in question. As a man, I beg most distinctly to state that I am perfectly ready and willing to give every information that is in my power, well knowing that I am perfectly innocent of any guilty participation in these fraudulent transactions." Examination again resumed by Mr. Ashurst—To whom did your house pay the two notes for 10,0001. each ?—One wa s pa id to our banker, Messrs. Vere and Co., and the other to Richard Thornton, Esq., of the Old Swan. When did'you pay the note for 10,0001. to Messrs. Vere and Co.?-0n Friday or Saturday, the 19th or 20th of September. Who paid it into their house ?—I do not know. Who do you believe paid it in ?—I believe it was my partner or his brother, I do not know which. On what day is the payment of it entered in your books ? :—On the 20th of September. Have you any reason to suppose that, a s it was entere d on the .206, it was not delivered to them earlier P—lt was in their house earlier. When was it first in their house ?—On the day on which it is made received in our books, viz., the 18th of September. Was it in their hands at any time before the 20th of September for any other purpose than safe custody ?—I believe not. For what purpose was it placed in their hands on the 20th ?—As a collateral security. For what ?—For advances of money. What advances of money were made upon that note by Messrs. Vere and Co. to your house ?—No specific amount. I ask (said Mr. Ashurst), what advance of money was made on that note by Messrs. Vere and Co. to your house ? —No specific amount on that note individually. What- advance of money was made by them to your house on that note, and others delivered to them at the same time? The advance made to us by Messrs. Vere and Company on that and other bills was twenty-three thousand pounds. When was the advance amounting to 23,0001. made ? The advance, being moneys to call on demand, wa s consi dered the advance o f th e d ay, for which the collatera l s were lodged, and, conseq uent l y the advance on the note a ll u d e d to was made on Sept. 20. When was the advance amounting to 23,0001. made ? I don't know that I can better answer the question than by stating that every night the loan "was considered paid by the securities, and we were therefore obliged to ask permission to have the loan renewed on the following morning. When was the advance amounting to 23,0001. actually made to your house ?—The loan was renewed every day. I cannot now tell the precise time, because I have not got my books of account with me to show it. Mr. Ashurst said that he was extremely anxious that this investigation should be carried to the fullest extent, and requested it might stand over until a future day. The COMMISSIONER acquiesced, and the case was ad journed. It was rumoured in the course of the day that Mr. Bent ley, the absconding partner, had been apprehended. MR. RAIKES, THE BANK DIRECTOR. A considerable sensation was produced in the Court by the announcement that a fiat of bankruptcy had been issued against Mr. Raikes, the late Bank Director. The petitioning creditors were stated to be Messrs. Williams and Co., the bankers of Birchin-lane. POLICE INTELLIGENCE. MANSION-HOUSE. Saturday having been the day appointed for hearing a charge against the stewardess of a steamer from Ostend for bringing over to this country French goods of various kinds and other articles of foreign growth and manufacture, upon which no duty was paid, Alderman Sir JOHN KEY pre sided, together with the LORD MAYOR Elect, for the pur pose of deciding upon the merits of the question. The Al dermen received intimation from the Board that it was not intended to prosecute the stewardess, as they were satisfied with seizing the goods (which consisted of a small quantity of tobacco and tea, and some small pictures and wine glasses), and a promise not " to sin any more" in that way. The stewardess, it appeared, was in the habit of bringing over little matters in tobacco, and brandy, once a week ; and it struck the officers that one week's smuggling in that way was not likely to do much harm to the revenue, it might be felt if the thing was done fifty-two times in the year ; besides, if one stewardess were allowed to commit the offence, the sex would be very apt to meet with very great encouragement on board the steamers by which, no doubt, a good deal of mischief would be perpetrated. The solicitor stated that although in this case the penal ties were remitted, any stewardess who should in future be guilty of acts of the kind would be dealt with severely. MARLBOROUGH-STEET. Mr. Thomas Walker and his two sons, Alfred and Isaac, were brought before Mr. CONANT for final examination, charged with having stolen a large quantity of lead from a house belonging to Henry Holland, Esq., of Montagu squares. The elder prisoner, it appeared, had contrived to obtain possession of the house No. 48, Hertford-street,May fair, not from Mr. Holland, but from a tenant of that gen tleman to whom only he (the prisoner) contended he was liable for the rent. The real landlord, however, could ob tain no rent, and, in addition to this loss, his house, a fine large one, then in complete repair, was made a perfect wreck of ; the cisterns, sashes, roofing, &c., having entirely disappeared. A policeman of the C division having per ceived the two junior prisoners carrying something away in a truck, followed them, and saw them take a box into a marine-store dealer's shop in Bedfordbury. He went in, and found that they were about to dispose of about 1601bs. weight of pieces of lead. Suspecting something wrong, he went for the assistance of another policeman, and having obtained it, he took both prisoners into custody. On com paring the pieces with the places in the house in Hertford street from whence the lead had been detached, they were found to correspond. The dealer had purchased at different times from the lads about 3001bs. of old lead. These particulars were established by Mr. Flower, of the firm of Harmer, Flower, and Co., who a tt en d e d f or Mr. Holland. All the three prisoners were fully committed. QUEEN- S QU ARE. William Page, who was stated to be one of the most no torious coiners in Westminster, and who has for a lengthened period eluded the vigilance of the police, was charged with coining counterfeit half-crowns. Inspector Banister and a police constable of the B divi sion, about nine o'clock in the morning proceeded to the house, No. 47, Orchard-street. After some little difficulty (for caution was essentially necessary) they obtained an en trance into the passage, and then made their way to a back room on the first floor, which they found fastened. They instantly burst it open, and found the prisoner sitting by the side of the fire with a plaster of Paris mould in his hand for manufacturing half-crowns. Before the officers could seize him he broke it to pieces, and the prisoner was not secured until he had made a desperate resistance. There was another man in the room and also a woman with whom the prisoner cohabited, but they made their escape during the scuffle. A pipkin was on the fire con taining hot metal, and near the fireplace the constables picked up thirteen counterfeit half-crowns, some of which were not finished, and several appeared as if just turned out of the mould. Some new metal table-spoons, used for melting, a bag of plaster of Paris, and a good half-crown were also found ; the latter hadbeen used to make the mould. Mr. Field, the Inspector of the Mint, pronounced the thirteen half-crowns to be . counterfeit, and added that they had been made from the broken mould produced. The police constable further stated that as he was con veying the prisoner to the station-house, he declared to him (the constable) that he knew it was all up with him. The prisoner said nothing in his defence, and at the re quest of Mr. Field was remanded for the present. Shortly after the prisoner was removed, Mary Edwards, the female who was in the room at the time the officers broke into it, was brought up in custody. The constables repeated their evidence, and she was re manded for further examination, it being expected that more of the gang will be shortly apprehended. MA RYLEB ONE. THE POOR LAws.--Three poor children, a girl and two boys, of very miserable appearance, were charged with hav ing been found crouched together on the steps of a gentle man's door in Wimpole-street. The children were taken into custody by a policeman to whom they stated that they had no home to go to, and that none of them had tasted food for three days. Mr. Twilley, the master of Marylebone poor-house, who was present, stated that the prisoners had all been inmates of the workhouse, but had thought proper to abscond from thence The children admitted that such was the fact ; but not liking the treatment they had received they wandered out, in hope of being able to procure some employment, but, being disappointed, they were reduced to the state of star vation in which the policeman found them. Mr. SHUTT (to Mr. Twilley)—Takethem into the work house again, keep them upon bread and water for a week, and mind that you flog them severely ; and if they don't be have better bring them to me, and I'll give them a month each at the treadmill. You need not be afraid (added the magistrate) the new Poor Law Local Act authorises you to flog and imprison the paupers under your care for miscon duct, the same as if they were in the House of Correction. Mr. Twilley then left the office with the children, pro mising to follow the worthy magistrate's advice. LAMBETH-STREET. Saturday Robert Morgan, John Edwards, and Charles Fitzgerald were charged with stopping Mary Anne Pritchard, daughter of the inspector of the Bow-street horse patrole stationed on the Stratford, Enfield, Epping, and Romford district, in the forest on Friday, and taking forcibly from her person a reticule containing a pocket handkerchief and other articles of property, together with a few pence. The evidence of Miss Pritchard was corro borated by a young lady who was with her at the time. The prisoners were committed to Chelmsford gaol to :ake their trial at the next Assizes for the county of Essex. WORSHIP-STREET. On Saturday evening a good-looking young woman, about the age of twenty, was brought into the Office by James Hanley, an officer of the establishment, to apply to Mr. TWYFORD, the sitting magistrate, for his advice and assistance under the following very distressing circum stances : The poor creature was really an object of compassion, being completely exhausted from fatigue . and hunger ; she was in fact incapable of walking into the office without as sistance. Hanley informed the Magistrate that he h a d about a quarter of an hour previous found the poor girl lying prostrate on the flag stones of a court leadin g ou t o f Long-alley, Finsbury. He , . with assistance, took he r t o Mr. Medcalf's, the Duke of Northumberland public-house, adjoining to this office,and had every attention paid her, but she, however, proved to be too far gone to take nourishment of any description. Mr. TWYFORD—Although a case of the greatest emer gency I have no power to order relief. No Magistrate, un fortunately, can interfere under the new Act. My feelings will not, however suffer the poor creature to perish from want, and if the overseers of Shoredit c h, i n w hi c h p ar ish she was found, will not relieve her or admit her into the workhouse, I must commit her to prison for a month, on her own statement, under the Vagrant Act. Woman---I would feel greatly obliged if your worship would send me to a prison. I would have a home there, whereas now I have none. The Magistrate wrote a note to Mr. Chost, the relieving overseer of Shoreditch, stating that the wretched woman, Mary Johnson, had been found destitute in that parish, and she would certainly perish if not attended to. The Ma gistrate then gave her four shillings, and directed Hanley, in case she was not admitted into the workhouse, to pro cure her a lodging and other necessaries, and on Monday (this.day) to bring her again before him, whe n he wonla commit her. During Saturday, Mr. TWYFORD informed one of the overseers of Bethnall-green parish that he had that n 3611.; ing received a l e tt er , in which was inclosed a sovereign for a poor woman of the name of Amelia Jones, who was few days since brought before him by Sergeant IVl`Wil liar T i of the H division of police, and charged with sleeping d the open rir on the s t e p s o f a d o or in Church - st reet, an by his solicitation admitted into the poorhouse , unti l !d, quiries could be m a d e i n t o h er cas e. The letter , he Sal had no signature. NION-HALL. James Clark, a well U -dressed young fellow, was char d, with two other men (not in custody), with assaulting e robbing a Mr. Hingley, near the Surrey Theatre. .'".5 complainant between one and two o'clock that m orning? he was walking from the Surrey Theatre towards Cnfe; lotte-street, was stopped by the prisoner and two nt men. They asked him where he was going; and, beforeu. he had time to speak, one of them struck him a tremendVe blow in the neck, and knocked him down. In failipding'tel/ called out " Murder !" and one of the three imm 0 0 picked up his (complainant's) hat off the g round, an ley o off with it, followed by hi s c o mpanions. Mr. g in tot, cries of murder, however, brought a policeman to the the and he secured the prisoner close to the place wb ere oe s complainant was lying on the ground. The othe r two the made their escape. The robbery was comm itted no; t he Magdalen, and there were no other persons pa ssing a time. The prisoner was remanded. THE SWELL MOB ON THEIR TRAVEL" Doncaster, which at the season of the great StuiaLtis.eosgefulf races is at all times the scene of desperate spec presented one at the last meeting of a daring and sue t voc al description. It appears that on the first day of the r o t i n tbe three persons of . respectable appearance, dressed style of fashion, went to the Falcon nn, where 6 1'0 quired for beds and other accommodations througbo4g, week. This was readily afforded them, and their n o r was conveyed to their respective apartments. Their. the ners indicated a disposition to give freely, and to sas t i l il ok character which they had assumed. They eat ow foil of the best, and expense seemed to be the last consideras:ith in their minds. They every day visited the race-coursehijoi the apparent curiosity of strangers, and it was ee tle n tlier that they were young men of fortune, who bad D e e pursuit but that of pleasure. In the end, how er li l or turned out that they were playing a deeper gam e ' ove r ascertained that the worthy host not only presidedireo. the comforts of the " Falcon," but that he had r ment booth on the co u rse , t o w hi c h a numerous bo a a t " ' f o r friends resorted. They watched him backwards an taine J wards, in the course of hi s avoca ti on s, and asce r boo tli , that, every evening, on his return from h is tair s ' he carried the amount of hi s r ece ipt s to a room "350 where he deposited them in what he conceived to h e de teri receptacle. Thus assured of a valuable booty they do of , mined to appropriate it to their own use on the las t t heit their visit, previous to which they co nt r ived to rer eeve notbe r luggage, with the assistance of two associates , to 3" pr e' house. The coast thus clear for a c ti o n, two of 60.01 pared to make the seizure, while the third plac ed in the road outside of the wi n d o w w hi c h looked fre-tereJ landlord's room. The two in-door gentlemen thee e . n wIY the room in question, and there very soon found thee; t he to an escrutoire, in which the money was depositeck:bost amount of more than 1001.
