A labourer from New 'rriber complained to the Ju-tices that the overseer had wi thheld relief. This parish functionary was in attendance, In d i. Was questioned by Lord Gage as to whether the pauper not frequent beer shops. The reply of the overseer i,':`',Ahat be attended both beer shops and public houses. moved the spirit of the applicant, and he retorted, pith some warmth, that he did neither. " There was," °t said, " a time when he had sold his Bible, and spent the money in beer, but now he trusted he kne w ics value." 'e was proc.eding in a religious strain, when his Lordshiv, , l Peoing a Testament, referred the man to James i., 26, miring him to read it, and mark whit was said :—" by man among you seem to be religious, and brid , etil not 4 tongue, but deceiveth his own heart, this man's reli !kn is vain." flaving finished, the ma n be g ged to read iither portion, and, turning to the sth chapter, ctim• h l " 4 11 eed enipharically with the Ist verse,—" Gu to now, ,/:rich men, weep and howl for the miseries that are come Pan you," continuing, notwithstanding his being fee 14eutly desired to desist, as far as the close of the 6th verse, then the bo o k was taken from him. The effe ct among the audience may be better conceived t han described. The , PPlicant was dismissed, with an intimati on that his ca,e w . °ll ld be attended to.

DREADFUL SUICIDE OF A WEAVE R. 11 . 11 Tuesday night, an inquest was held at the Pitt's Head, I reh-lane, Bethnal Green, on the body of John Poynton, "Weaver, aged 21. The deceased , who h ad been married ‘ k ""ot five months, bad ab,art ten days ago an attack of t yphus fever, after which he laboured under great excite hi", and exhibited signs of deran g ement. On Sunday 'tht he was very restless in bed , and he fre q uentl y ex claimed " I wish I was dead." At last he gut up, and ° twithstanding a friend, named Savell, a furrier, was in the ro o m for the purpose of taking care of him, contrived dr aw a razor from behind a plate on the mantel-shelf. 41 s then exclaimed, " Let me die," and drew the wea p on tons great force across his throat, and inflicted a deep 641 1, from which the blood spouted forth. Savell endea '',Ored t o take the razor front him, but he grasped the , 'Odle so firmly, that be found it im p ossible to do so with ,"t placing his band in da n ge r of bein g cut off. The de ,,." ssed's wife instantly jumped out of bed, and seized her "'fortunate husband by the arm, but he exclaimed, " Let T e die—let me die, and you die with me ;" and af t e r a d esperate struggle, again drew the razor across his throat. ta d lll' n ea rly severed his bead from his body ; he fell on the (1°"• and notwithstanding the best me dical aid, died in less 41 1 two hours. The razor was very large and sharp, " i . s °4 used for shaving silk or velvet. The deceased's wife itts severely cut in attempting to take the razor from him. DREADFUL ACCIDENT AT THE LEAZES 'I4tRAcit.--An accident, producing most melancholy ' o Ontequences, took place at the Leazes -t e rrace on Thurs -oeiY morning last. Six labourer s, in the em p loyment of r- Grainger, were in the ac t of carr y in g along the scaf folding o f the new buildings a stone weighing about cwt., when the deals forming that part of the scaffold 4 1 suddenly gave way, and the whole were p recipitated ,` 0 th e gro und from a height of upwards of 30 feet. Wil i i i atEl Murray was killed upon the spo t ; Robert Cunning ant and George Kennedy were removed to the Infirmary; Cunningham is since dead, and very little hope is enter twined of Kennedy's recovery. W. Newton and J. llarday Were removed to their own homes, and both are since dead, The sixth man, Edward Moore, is but slightly hurt. On the afternoon of the same day an inquest was "eld at Mr. Thompson's, Leazes Tavern, on the body of Murray, before Mr. Fife, coroner, who minutely e x. ' l ''oined the witnesses as to the sufficiency of the scaffold ;thethe mode of its construction, and the materials Of Which it was composed. The witnesses were unani. " 1 ously of opinion that the scaffolding was fully sufficient, i t being c onstructed with a view to enable it to bear tlior e we i g ht than would ever have to come upon it; and o de of them stated that he was one of nine men who bad 4 touch heavier stone upon it a few days before than the "e which was on when the accident occurred. The ‘ • ienesses could give no account of the cause of the acci l e "; some of the h orizontal su pp orters, called "needles," - "d given way, but whether they were broken by the fall, ,°,.! broken in the first instanc e, could not be ascertained. the Jury, after a short co nsultation, returned an unani- Inoue verdict of Accidental Death," stating, at the same time, that no blame could he attached to any one con nected with the building, either in the c onstruction of the scaffolding, or the materials of which it was com p osed. Olurray has left a wife and one child ; Newton a wife and t wo children; and Hardy a real objects of commiseratio n, w il e and three children; al; and to whom, we have no doubt, the sympathy and benevolence of the public will he e xtended. It is woi thy of notice, and a matter high 'y c reditable to Mr. Grainger and his different foremen, that, 4, bidbt the exten-ive works carried forward by Mr. Grainger for many years, this is but the second accident of e poaequence that has ocenrred,.../Verucast/e Journal. same felt , &c. and l the e for early parti r the own, coin hood wing Daily SHIPPING INTELLIGENCE-(THIS DAY) FROM LLOYD'S.

FATHER OF THE HOUSE OF COMNIONS.— This honourable title is now, it may be said, in atiey ince ; its last owner was the venerable Mr. Coke, who entered Parliament nearly 60 years ago as the representative of the county of Norfolk. The following anecdote of the late Lord Castlereagh, afterwards Marquis of Londonderry, in reference to Mr. Cole's marriage, is not generally known :—" On the night wh..n Lady Anne Coke was safely delivered of a son, Lord Castlereagh astounded the House of Commons by calling aloud, the moment he reached his seat on the Treasury Bench, three cheers for Mr. Coke, the Father of this House, and his young child, a demand that was instantly, generally, and heartily responded to from all the benches." The weather has become very severe within the last few days, assuming all the characteristics of " bitter biting winter." All the mountains in the vicinity of Dublin are covered with snow, and the weather in the interior has been most severe and inclement.—Dublin Evening Post.

Captain Howard : and one expected in Leeds by the appointment of Mr. Macaulay. A great sensation had been caused at Hayti by the arrival of the French Government brig Le Cui rassier, despatched by Louis Philip, to demand of the President Boyer, the payment of the twenty millions in demnity. It was understood that the French Government stated that, if the money was not forthcoming, an expe dition would be sent against the island. SHEERNESS.—There is great bustling in the Dockyard, and touch more expected. Several large ships are fitting out for sea, and others are in commission. The Admiral's tender is constantly employed between Sheer ness and the Tower of London, in conveying seamen from London to the former place, for the service of the Jasseur and other ships, and it is confidently reported that the artificers will in a few days be ordered to work six days in the week; all classes in the naval department are kept very strictly to their duties. Ten shipwrights' apprentices are to be immediately entered, who are to be sons of shipwrights, and instructed by their respective fathers. —Maidstone Gazette.

Extract from the mate's affidavit, Dec. 19, 1833 : That he sailed from the port of Greenock on Monday, the 11 th inst. The weather was favourable until they reached the South Rock o❑ the coast of Ireland, when they continued to beat down the Channel until Monday morning, the 16th. It then blew so fresh that they were obliged to bear up for Belfast Loch. Towards the afternoon the wind came round to the northward, and blew so very strong, that they could not carry canvass. Towards morning, they put the vessel bard round, to clear the Mull of Galloway, and about nine o'clock they took in what sail they had set, and kept away for Burrough Head. When off Burrough Head they endeavoured to beat in for the Land for Hit-her, having lost part of their sails ; and about half.past four o'clock in the afternoon, Captain Benjamin Parfitt was at the wheel, and in the act of moving the preventer of the main boom, got entangled with the wheel, and carried it, with the captain,overboard, thus rendering the vessel unmanageable. That the spire filler was forthwith rigged, but, before it had any effect, tke vessel got amongst the rocks on the southmost of the Siles of Fleet. That be, with the remainder of the bands, had great difficulty in saving their lives on the said island, which they found quite uninhabited, and was taken off by a boat from Gatehouse of Fleet, on the evening of Wednesday. That this deponent has lost all his clothes and papers belonging to the vessel. That the said vessel is now a total wreck. Extract from a letter dated Knockbeg Gatehouse, Dec. 19, to the owner :.—But for the unfortunate accident of the preventer of the main boom fouling both the wheel and the Captain, and carrying them both overboard, all would have been well, as th'e vessel was within a mile of a haven. To the attempt made to pick up the Captain and the time lost in shipping the new filler, must be attri buted the loss of the vessel. The mate cannot taste food, and will not be able to move for some time ; and the three men, from their great privation of food, cold, and wet, are in a sad condition. The Clyde was wrecked in the Bay of Fleet, on the smallest of the Isles of Fleet, some mimes called Murray's Island, one of the two nethermost islands of the four. IRELAND. (From the Times Correspondent.) DUBLIN, DEC. 23. REBELLION AGAINST " THE RINT." It appears by the Carlow Sentinel that D.. Doyle (J. K. L.) has refused to pay tribute to O'Connell, and when the collectors called on him , h e informed th;rn he ' t had no mon-y for such purposes. " For this want of patriotism," continues the Sentinel, " the Doctor will be denounced by D is on the first opportunity that pr-tents itself." This is passive resistance; but a more serious and active opposition has been organized by Mr. Lumber', M.P. for Wexford. Yesterday week, whin the collectors were pursuing their occupation in the chapel of Mr. Lam bert% parish of Cushinstown, the following placards were post.d through the district, to attract the eye of the con gregation on the move to chapel:— " No Humbug !—No Hypocrisy ! "Men of Cushinstown !—Who refused you aid from the Catholic Association fund, at the period of your strug gle with the rector of this parish in his merciless proceed. jogs against you for tithes ?-o'Connell ! " Who fled the banners of his country, hy deserting the House of Commons on the night of Mr. J. Grattan's resolution on tithes, though pledged to support said reso lution I—O'Connell ! " Who deserted the Carrickshaugh men on trial for life or death; after pocketing 200 guineas of their money ? —O'C , nnell ! " Who paved the way by his evidence before the Lords and Commons for the total destruction of the brave 40s. freeholders of Ireland ?-o'Connell ! 6' Who, by his evidence before the Committee of both Houses of Parliament, attempted to lower the character of the Irish priesthood in the estimation of the English nation by declaring that they were the sons of poor pea sants, and that a golden link (detestable libel !) was ne. cessary to bind them to the state, while he held up to the admiration of the world the characters of the Irish parsons as the sons of gentlemen of first-rate education and refined manners, whose habits of life and station in society fully qualified theta to fill the void to make good the link in the chain, so necessary in Ireland, between its nobility and people?—O'Connell ! " Who deluded the people of Ireland on the repeal of the Union? Who, while he was publicly deoaring in Dublin and elsewhere that nothing short of she success of that question could regenerate the ccantry anti establish the peace, prosperity, and happiness of the nation, still was not a Repealer, as appears by his letter to Mr. Fagan, of Cork, written the 26th day of October list, where be says that previous to the passing of the Coercion Bill he only intended Repeal as a means and not as an end to be sought?—O'Connell! Away with such base prevarication! Who, at a late Sheriffs' dinner in Dublin, drank that hateful, that obnoxious, and factious toast,' The glorious, pious, and immortal memory ?'—O'Connell ! " Men of Cushinstown, make your own comments on this mass of double-dealing and duplicity. " AN HONEST PATRIOT." To counteract the effects of this placard on the " Rint," a deputation from New Ross attended at Cushinstown chapel last Sunday, where they were met by Mr. Lambert, who told them, " I once supported Mr. O'Connell because I thought he was an honest man, but experience has taught me otherwise. Oh ! if you knew that man in the House of Commons ! He is there, I solemnly declare, as different a man from what he is out of it as the heavens are at midnight to what they are at noonday. There be studies nothing but how to obtain power and profit for himself, and to shrink away on all occasions front the tithes. That man has attacked me by the grossest and falsest lies that man could invent throu4h villanous, pusil lanimous, and lying papers, which he pays with your money," &c. The Spectator states that the Duke of Wel lington, when last in office, after having insisted on the management of a paper being intrusted to a gentleman of his own nomination, transferred his patronage from that paper to another, because the editor whom he had named refused to insert an article, written by the Duke himself, against all reCorm iu the House of Commons.

MR. SADLER. TO THE EDITOR OF THE MORNING CHRONICLE. SIR,—I naturally expected that the Leeds Intel ligencer would not relax in its abuse of me for my show-up of Mr. Sadler. Vulgar abuse and ate.!a cious falsehoods are its staple articles of trade; and strange indeed would it be should I not receive Fey full share of both. I will, Sir, with your permission, go temperately th r ough the article itself. I will acknowledge what is true, and repel what is false; and if either Mr. Sadler or his own dear pet organ gain anything thereby, I shall indeed be very much astonished. One thing, however, I must inform you of, to _rive you a correct idea of my assailant, the Leeds Intelligencer. In the very week of my difficulties, and wi,hout even giving me a chance to re-establish nyself, the Intelligencer changed its day of publica tion from Thursday to S outdo) , (my day). Some how or other the * Editor of the Intellig,encer got himself appointed to take the stock in my office ; the list of s ubscribers to the Patriot also found its way into the Editor of the Intelligencer's pocket ; anti Intelligencers were forthwith sent to several persons without bring ordered. Since that period, the In telligencer has constantly been abusing me, and sometimes in private editions. This is, however, all foreign to the argument in question ; and I only insert it to show the character of Mr. Sadler's advo cate. Now, then, to business. It will be perceived, on reading the first four paragraphs of the Intelligencer's attack, in which the names of Jahn Fosier, Harriet Wilson, 11i. Sadler, Rev. R. Wa son, Wm. Hey, Esq., the Duke of Wellington, Mr. Oastler, Mr. 11. Hall, and the Morning Chronicle, are all blended together ; that these paragraphs really amount to nothing beyond miserable abuse. As to Mr. ()ostler giving me 1401. o ut of his own pocket, that I have proved over and over again to be false; and the public will hear in mind, that Mr. ()ostler has not yet rendered any account of the Factory funds. The inteffigencer then goes on to say—" That at the time he (Mr Foster) makes Mr. Sadler speak of the Duke of Wellington in so absurd a style, that gentleman was in London and Mr. Foster was in Leeds." Indeed, Mr. Intelligencer, I was not aware that it was so " very absurd" that his Grace should have the confidence in Mr. Sadler which the latter told me he had. But no more circumlocution. I never mentioned " any time" in my letter. Many were the " times" this subject was alluded to, and the letter from his Grace was said by Mr. Sadler to have found him at Redcar. Now, then, Sir, this being passed over, which is not very material, its truth or falsehood must simply rest on my assertion or Mr. Sadler's denial, and whether Mr. Sadler's word or mine is entitled to most credit, will presently be shown. The letter dated 29th July is perfectly correct. Mr. Sadler did let my son have 101., and it is equally true I was anxious to repay the obligation, which my letter bears witness of; and beyond this 101. advanced to my son, I never received or heard ' of my family receiving one farthing; and Mr. Sadler never replied to this letter at all, but which is now basely published with the view of its being sup posed he lent me the sum I asked for. But now then I will show where the " taint of treachery I:es." I will show whose hand " the damned spot is upon." I will exposesuch falsehood and such deceit as the world never saw before. The Intclligencer says—" More than this, his liberation from Rothwell prison was effected through the kindness of Mr. Sadler and another of the gen tlemen denounced as his enemies and deceivers." Now, Sir, I entreat—nay, I beg of you to dwell on " how I got to Rothwell prison—how many hours I was there—how I got out"—and whether through Mr. Sadlet's kindness or not shall be shown from his own letter which I received when there. Now, pray, Sir, attend, and restrain your feelings of boiling indignation if you can. I had made the assignment before alluded to on the 26th of January. I also in my former letter spoke of certain judgments I had confessed for 241., 122/., and 571.—a1l of which, mind, with the Stamp office account, I should have had no difficulty iu discharging, had good faith been kept with me. I gave these cognovita because I felt quire sure of re ceiving the money, as I have before specified, and I did so to save expenses. On the 31st January, however, as I was going to my office, about seven o'clock in the evening, I was pounced upon by four men, and hurried into a coach a distance of five miles, to Rothwell prison, for the 241. In vain I solicited to write a note to my family. In vain I offered in ten minutes to raise the money. In this extremity I did contrive to get a note conveyed to Mr. Sadler to send me 151, having pounds in ray pocket, but instead of his setiditigi ten t,l pray you read his own letter in reply to my note, and which I did not " commit to the flames," although so earnestly requested to do so. Nay, Sir, by heaven, and as if by miracle, this letter proves every thing I have written of Mr. Sadler. If proves his high opinion of me—it proves his elltl• proves his promises—nay, as I have said, it proves everything. Dearly, therefore, shall Mr. Sadler repent for " betraying the confidence of pri vate letters. (The letter is without date, but was received by me at Rothwell on the morning of the Ist of Feb ruary, in reply to my note of the preceding night.) " Aly Dear Sir,—Two of as painful letters as I almost ever received, reached me this evening within a few mi nutes of each other.—Passing over applications of a simi lar nature which have, within these few months past ; been very numerous, and often from quarters most distress• ing to refuse, one from a very near and dear relative, I have been obliged to answer, as I must you ; and I can aver with hardly more distress of mind. I will not enter upon the reasons which render this course necessary, as I am sur e you would feel otherwise than gratified were I to state them. After receiving your note, however, which came last, I went out to otrcain the sum you mention, nut having it by ; and this gave me the opportunity of spraking on the subject to a mutual friend, who, I am sure, is most strongly interested in your favour ; but be assured me, that circumstanced as you are at present, you are re lieved from every sort of pecuniary demand, including , wages, &e., and may require an allowance, oo that you will nut have to depend upon your personal friends and relat.ves in such a manner a 4 you might have dune under an aaoignment.* Recording myself, were it in my pow. r, Icon safely protest that no gratification could equ that of serving my kind friends, re 4 ardiess of any circumstances whatever ; but I am compelled to adopt the line of conouct in this instance, painful as it is, which I have of late in so many others, and even (as I have before hinted) in a very near quarter, and in doing this I can sately as err, that there are few men in existence less moved by mercenary considerations than myself. " Of one thing I trust you will allow me to assure you that when the time arrives, which the course of things seems to bring near, when an opening may be made fur your permanent advantage, I trust I shall not be found wanting among those who duly estimate your character and talents. You will perceive that this letter is strictly confidential, and I hope you will commit it to the flues when you have perused it. With sincerest sympathy and respect for yourself and family, I remain, my dear Sir, ever truly yours, " M. T. SADLER. " To John Foster, Esq. " And here let me pause to thank Mr. Jewison, the keeper of Roth well prison. He said, " Mr. Foster, there is some mystery in the proceedings against you t do not understand. I never heard of such treatment before. It appears for some reason you are to be insulted and degraded; but it shall not be said of you that you ever slep t a ni g ht in Rothwell prison, provided you give me your word that mat ters w ill b e arranged to - morrow. 1 did give my word—Mr. Jewison kindly permitted me to remlin all night in the lodge, which is some distance from the prison, and soon after daylight next morning a friend arrived, and presently the cmi * se Th w i h s i w ch as iniera.rloyasthteierfirst intimation that a fia t of bank ruptcy was opened aga i ns t me. pay.Alr. Mr: It R. Hall, u a a il wa ndo s n th o er e s had of so solemnly contracted t o the Commissioners, and on his oath found me bankrupt for this very debt ; after having told me a day or two before, " that the Factory Committee were bound in honour, as gentlemen, to rid me of this.' , (S e e my former letter to Mr, Oattler.) money was paid, but not by Mr. Sadler, as the wretched Leeds Intelligencer asserts, nor by any of Mr. Sadler's friends. Witness Mr. Sadler's own 'otter—it is the best reply to the Intelli encer; he fact is, this scene was intended, doubtless by ill .yhole gang, to sink me so low, in broken heart 0 . broken spirit, that the " damned spot" should .ever be exposed. The Intelligencer then says—" Then, as to hi threats, Mr. ()ostler has already pAlished an ex. react from one of his letters, in which the s um it Mi. is made the condition of silence." To whiz) I reply, I never wrote such a letter and I never sly Mr. °ostler's publication, or should instantly hay, exposed the falsehood. The next point is the letter dated 9th December. It is perfectly true I did write that letter. I hay received marry applications to lay hare the tread), rats treatment I have received. Ido expose M. Sadler with regret ; I once did unfeignedly love aro everence Mr. Sadler. Witness my exertions frit him, and witness the pains his own friends it London have taken to prevent this exposure. Mr Sadler will understand this perfectly. The Intel ligencer then goes on to say; that the gentleman to whom my letter is addressed seconds a resolution, in which I am declared to be a person unworthy of reply. To which I beg to answer, Ido not believe d. If this were true, how comes it that lam non answering the reply that was unnecessary ? The veracious Intelligencer then says—" That the commentary in the Chronicle was written, in all probability, by Mr. Foster himself, for he is under stood to be an assistant in Mr. Clement's establ,sh inenr." As to the admirable leading article in th. Morning Chronicle 0C last Tuesday, I need not. in form you, Sir, Tat I never saw it until I read it it he Morning Chronicle. You will also be kir enough to say whet her I am in the employ of Mr. Clement, a gentleman I never saw. In my former letter I was aware that some of my assertions would 1).; denied. This could not In avoided, from the nature of my extraordinary case; but when I have proved beyond the possibility o• doubt, as I have done in the Rothwell affair, the utter worthlessness of Mr. Sadler's assertions, from his own hand-writing, I demand, as a matter of right, full credit for my statements, until proved to he contrary by better authority than the vulgar ribaldry of the Leeds Intelligencer. I have now, Sir, only to add, that " the Letter," proving beyond all douty, the " damned spot." shalt either be intrusted to your care, or sent to William Beckett, Esq., or John Cawood, Esq., of Leeds, as you shall direct, otherwise the Intelligencer will say it is a forgery; and regarding Mr. Blackburne, have not spoken to that gentleman since the York Assizes of 1832. I have now, then, Sir, disposed of every falsehood the Intelli,gencer has so audaciously uttered. Iu another place I observed, that, from the nature of the case, much must depend on the credit for ve racity of the relators. What lam now, however : going to write can, I doubt not, be sifted to the bottom, if Mr. Sadler wishes it ; and it also may explain the reason why one of Mr. Sadler's support ers has recently been preaching away for him at Preston. One night I asked Mr. Sadler why Mr. Hunt's name was omitted in the Committee on the Factory Bill, and particularly as Mr. Hunt seconded Mr. Sadler's motion in the House of Commons ? "My dear friend," said Mr. Sadler, "it is a profound se cret ; but Lord Ali horp positively refused me a committee at all if Hunt's name was included." Presently I found this " profound secret" had been communicated to several persons, and, amonot the rest, to Mr. Hunt himself, by Mr. Sadler, who had felt so indignant at it, that he (Mr. Hunt) had ap plied to Lord Althorp for an explanation, when hi= Lordship instantly replied, " there was not one word of truth in the statement." There, Mr. In telligencer ! There, Mr. Sadler Mr. Hunt is nut in town, or I would have called and asked for a copy of Lord Althorp's letter. Now, Sir, after receiving this famous letter of Mr. Sadler's, had I not a right to apply to him when my wants pressed upon me? Surely the proper time" alluded to, to do me service, was when tny house and home were broken up, m, family dispersed, and myself in bad heal , h. Sur, ly any man would have said this was exactly " the time" for a friend to show himself—for any man 10 show himself, except a roaring ultra professor of hu manity. Of what avail was it to me to possess even Mr. Sadler's high testimony of my " faithful ness" and " ability," as testified in his many letters, and yet continue to suffer in silence? Too long to suffer for the patience of many of my friends; woo have declared me infatuated, knowing all that con cerns me, that I could bear long as I have done, without showing some symptom that " even the worm when trodden upon will turn again"—and now that I have done so, with perhaps a vengeance that will destroy Mr. Sadler for ever as a public man—then, forsooth, I am to be told " that I have kept every scrip of Mr. Sadler's communications, which has evidently been from a design to use them to my own advantage." I kept these communications to protect myself, and well I did , o—witness the statement in the Leeds In• telligencer regarding the Bothwell affair—witness the complete annihilation of it in Mr. Sadler's own letter I It seems my offence now is, the keeping written documents which it was fondly hoped were destroyed, and then any falsehood could be uttered under the respectable character of certain parties supported by sham meetings. I will, however, tell Mr. Sadler a secret for his future government. lam not in the habit of preserving letters; but on two or three occasions I noticed so great a difference in his conversation when alone with me, and when he was accotnpatued by Mr. Robert Hall, that I could not understand it ; and thought consequently there could be no harm in my acting cautiously, provided anything should go wrong. Not that 1 doubted Mr. Sadler one moment, but I had certain mis givings I could not account for, and perhaps the so frrquently pondering over many ambiguous letters caused me to preserve them; and fortunate it is for me that I did so, otherwise I should now be sworn out of my very existence. Although what I am now replying to is the lead ing article of the Intelligencer, I shall treat it the same as if Mr. Sadler's name were taxed to he cause it bears internal evidence that it was written by himself. May I not, therefore, ask, was it not scandalous, that with all the promises I received, arid all the aid I rendered, I should be compelled to give a cognovit for W.? Was not the treatment I received infamous? Was not the refusing to let me have the small sum of 151. to liberate me by Mr. Sadler himself disgraceful to him ? But now, to claim credit for paying that debt, doubtless calculat ing that his letter refusing even to assist me in so doing had been " committed to the flames" —ought not burning tears of shame and repentance to flow down his pallid face ? Oh, Mr. Sadler !—Mr Sadler I-1 could not have believed this lust touch of duplicity even in you. But my feelings must be once more outraged by the recital ^f the indignity I had to endure for fighting your battle—one more thrust at the man who laboured so ardently for you to get him down for ever, little expecting the ter rible apparition of your own letter, to unsay all you had so solemnly asserted, and to fix upon you the brand for ever. As Mr. Sadler has shown himself so forward in publishing private letters, I beg he will publish two more—the one dated the 23d, the other the 28th of last February, and which were delivered to him by a Member of Parliament. 1 must now, Sir, draw this second long letter to a conclusion; but there is still one point more to notice. The Intelligencer says--" The last year, the Bev. R. Watson was procured to attack Mr. Sadler—this year, the purchase is Mr. John Foster." Since the last year, Mr. Watson has closed his earthly labours. Had he been still alive, he per chairce might have wielded a pen which could make Mr. Sadler feel, Amongst the great body of the Methodists, Mr. Watson's m emory is revered ; and Mr. Sadler will gain nothing by this foolish attack ; e 7 tler shall I lose any•hing by the ‘vrithing• agony fixes on iny pal as the , uceessor !o on's.

EXTRAORDINARY DISAPetARANCE nr Sllll of PUBLIC MONEY, at the NAVY PAY OFFICE. (Frnrn a Correipon.lent iif the Times.) A ve , y imperfect ac connr. of the ci• - curn , tancr•a his affair having appealed i❑ the Times, ccipiA from a paper, we insert the foloowin2: part;culars 0' my,terious occurrence, which we have reaqnn t J oie may t‘e relied on : —A. supply of =o i l , bp.'n qui:ed for th r carrying on the public servit.,, as r spec c pavrirmt of his Nl•jesty's ships, and the a rtitie,s o f he dockyard at Devonport, a suns consisting of ti oNa, cash, and silver, was prepared, in order to be cony ye 1 rom the .Navy Pay Office in bind , n to its detair,tioo, the usual manner. The practice pursued in this resp , et is, and has been for many years, as follows :—The sums of honey intended to be forwarded to the out porta, for the purposes above mentioned, are obtained from the Bink tf Englatrl by an officer of the Navy Pay Office, cane C,nductor," by whom they are placed in tb c`uists ire which they are to be forwarded to Portspoon h or Plymouth, accompanied by a list, stating the amourir, . , nd specifying the proportions in which the total is in In 'p of notes, gold, and silver. These chests Eve secured iy two locks, diff,ring in construction, Cie origin t 1 k •vs .1 which remain in the possessi:m of - the Coodue•or in iwn, ti , e rinplica•es being in the euitod: , of the two cineipal p:ty clerks of the out ports. To P.o.tsnr, ti . . od Plymouth these chests are e,nci.al in the cost° !y o! me,senger and gu 'l,l belonging to the Navy P hr e inside places being taken in the mail for that pur rc.e, their directions brim, n war to lose sizlit of ,he chest Turing the joureec, by both being ahiet t from the coach (t one and the same time. Upon the arrival of the chosts t their destination they are delivert-(1 into the !.unds of ..e two s.nior resident hay clerks, to whom thy ate eon dei..d, who send a receipt for the amount by poq, eb y wing j•tintly and individually liable for the amount of ruhiie money intrusted to their charge, and tewioc sei•uriv f. .r its due administration. The prm,iee as regard.. Ciiat- nam and Sheerness differs only in this that the mon yis ranamitted by post-chaise to Cha , ham, under the sunerin tendence of the conductor in London, from whe,c , due Sheerness yard is supplied by means of stuns sew down •nder the charge of the c tuductor at C,41111 , 11 in the Commissioner's yacht, or some other v«itsel belonging to he dock-yard. On the occasion in question a sum .4' .noney was received from the Bank, and placed in a c•.est in the usual manner, consisting partly of noses and silver, and the remainder made up of 5,0001., as wis supposed, in sovereigns; the invariable pr ,ctice with regard to sovereigns being, that they are packed (as they are received from the Bank) in hags contain ing 1,000/. each, the interior of each 1,000/. hag b e ing composed of ten smaller bags containing 100/. each, two smaller bugs being tied together by a piece of string at the neck. The money having been placed in the chest, and , übmitted generally, though not particularly, yet in the usual manner, to the inspection of the messenger in whose charge it was to proceed, was placed in an uffitte on the ground floor of the Navy Pay-office, there to reina'n until the arrival of the mai', the windows and doors being' secured as usual. F: om there it was t by those whose routine of duty it was to escort it, and arrived in tine course at the Navy Pay office in Devonport dockyard. The p clerks, who were to receive it, were in attendance, opened he chest, took out the money, looked over the notes, but, without opening the bags of sovereign., tank them as containing 1,0001. each ; and in order to swe a post, it being always desirable that the Treasurer of the Navy should have an acknowledgment as early as pos sible, sent off their joint receipt for the amount they supposed they had received. On the bags coining to be examined, it was found that each large bag was deficient two small ones, so that instead of their having received 5,000/. in sovereigns, the ba gs con. rained but 4,0001. Upon the discovery of this deficiency, the clerks who had given the receipt upon the faith of the bags having contained the prop r sum sent off an express o the Treasurer of the Navy, informing him of tie cir cametance. Mr. Poulett bomson's answer was, lie had their receipt for the full amount, and he despatched one if the clerks of the office in London down th Devonport, calling upon the cleiks in question to make good the irefieiericy by the Ist of December, or to deliver up their keys lull consider themselves as dismissed from their sarietions. Upan t sis they p rid over 5001. each , in order to co.er the deficiency, but at the seine time Stweri hit ,h e y ti I so under protest, ae, although they had trivet) a receipt for the full amount, yet they were satisfied the sum in question had been aestracted fr..ni the bags before hey carne into their custody. Ia thi s position the titer stands at present, and although experienced officers from Bow-street have investiga erl the matter, nothing has transpired to give a clue to show bow or by when► the robbery was committed ; the strone presumption, hoe ever, is, that the chest was opened while it remained in the e.iom in the Navy Pay.office, waiting the arrival of the m ril, which supposition is strengthened by the circumstance that one of the doors leading into that room, which had been tried, and suppo-ed to be fastened, was found, before the ar rival of the mail, to be open, but without at th time ex citing any suspicion, inasmuch as the chest ether' upon a stand constructed for removing these heavy weiehts from one place to another, against the door in q•estion, cr so near it as to admit of its being hut very partially opened and would appear, therefore, instead of being tree means of recess, to have been left open fer the purpose of having it supposed an entrance was effected that way. It is quite c:ear, that by whomsoever the robbery Was commi ted, he or they were well acquainted with the whole of the ar rangements of the office, and, independent of obtaining access to the room, must have been enabled to open the chest with false keys ; how obtained it is difficult to con jecture, for it is stated that the originals are only permitted to pass out of toe hands of the conductor to open the :helm on their return to the office, where they are Sent by waggon ; those in the possession of the clerks at the out ports invariably remaining in their own possession. All the persons through whose bands this money passed have been long in the office, have had charge of million•, and upon whom not the slightest suspicion rests ; and so high stands the character of the Plymouth cleiks, who, though only detached from the office in town, have yet been resident at Devonport fur many years, that as soon as the circumstance was known there, they were waited upon, it. is stated, by several of the resident gentle►nen of the tow., offering their services, in the evr nt of this umx pected call upon their resources putting them to material inconvenience. It may be matter of surprise that this method of trans mitting such large sums of money by the mail coach has not led to some loss to the public, seeii.g what temptations to robbery were held out when 30.000!. or 40 000!., in the time of war, was being sent by these mean• every three or four weeks to each of the outports. I. must, however, be recollected that those sums were chiefly com posed of bank notes, generally new, and therefore nu n bered consecutively, and the means of getting rid of them, if stolen, difficult : but now that so much more gold is used, the method of its transm:seion certainly ought to he secure from risk if silver is required to be sent to any extent, it is forwarded under military escort, but is it never equals in amount the sums sent by the means to which reference has been mane, the difference of security oy the one means and the other would appear to he much greater. No doubt the event we have derailed will lead to this matter being fully investigated, and a more improved system adapted, if it shall be found practicable. CHANCERY REFORM.—It is rumoured that Lord Plunket contemplltes the introduction of two Bills —one for sweeping away the Six Clerks, and numerous other officers of the Court, by which a saving of upwards of 4,0001. would be effected for suitors ; the other for eatabbshing a series of new rules and orders, which would change our equity system entirely, and make the Court of Cuancery accessible and cheap.—Dublin Morn.
