They went, however, into the round-house, and after sleeping for some time, aw oke and began to quarrel. The deceased wanted to fight, which Spilsbury refused to do, and the deceased getting very noisy , and determined to fight, Spilsbury went below to the pri soner, who was asleep in bed, to complain of him. The prisoner told him to go back and fight it out. Spilsbury on this went on deck, and meeting the mate he had a quarrel and a tassel with him. Whilst this was going on the pri soner came on deck with a pistol in his hand, and parted Spilsbury and the mate. The mate then went below and the prisoner then moved towards the deceased, and then, evi dently by some accident, the pistol went off, and the de ceased was shot. The prisoner evinced the greatest sorrow ; went on shore immediately and procured a surgeon, and fetched him again the next morning. His skill, however, was quite unavailing, and the deCeased died on that day. Mr. COCKBURN addressed the jury, contending that the thing was altogether an accident. Mr. Justice WIGHTMAN summed up the case, telling the jury that if they were satisfied ~ that death had been occa sioned by a careless use of the pistol by the prisoner, it was manslaughter. If they were not satisfied of this they must acquit him. After a long consultation they returned a verdict of Not Guilty, and the prisoner was forthwith discharged. Benjamin Hunt was indicted with having unlawfully and maliciously set fire to a dwelling-house, the property of Sir J. W . Pollen. Mr. Polden prosecuted. The'prisoner VMS undefended. The evidence in this case was very circumstantial, and we were certainly surprised at the verdict. A woman was called, who stated that she went about the country selling nightcaps and lucifer-matches. On the 14th April she was at a public .holise, when she saw the prisoner, and he purchased of her two boxes of these matches. On the sth of April, late in the evening, an uninhabited cottage of Sir J. W. Pollen, which was situated with several others near to where the prisoner lived, was on fire. The cottage was built of mud, with a thatched roof. The back part of the roof came down very near to the ground, so that a per son might have easily put a match into it, and as it was away , from the road, would not have been seen. Very shortly be fore the'fire was observed the prisoner had been seen near to the house, he having called at a cottage situated close to the one that was burnt. He was subsequently met by a man whom he knew, at a short distance from the cottage at which he had called. The man stopped and spoke him. Whilst they were talking together the fire was perceived by the wit ness, who exclaimed "There is a fire down in old Hunt's house," which was the name of the person occupying the cottage immediately adjoining the one burnt. The prisoner replied to this that he supposed they were singeing a pig. Witness said he did not think they would be engaged in singeing a pig at that time of day, and invited prisoner to go down with him and see out the matter. The prisoner refused to go, and the witness went without him. He found the cot tage on fire, and saw that the fire had commenced in the thatch. He and several other persons who were assembled then set to work and endeavoured to extinguish the flames. Whilst thus engaged he perceived the prisoner standing by, and asked him to carry a bucket, which he refused to do ; and did, in fact, take no part in endeavour ing to put out the fire. The cottage was entirely consumed: The next day a search was made near the fire, and close on the spot, and for several yards beyond it, a quantity of matches were found scattered on the ground. In a hedge near to the house the cover of a match-box was picked up, which, on being shown to the woman who had sold matches to the . prisoner, was like, she said, those she sold to him, though she confessed she could not read. A small bit of brownish paper was also picked up close to the house, which had evidently been ignited. Next morning the prisoner was apprehended. He was found at work with his jacket off, which was lying on the ground at some dis tance from him. On the policeman going to this jacket, and taking it up, prisoner said he was very welcome to search it, but that he would find nothing there. The policeman searched, and found a hole in the lining of the pocket, and within this hole the lucifer matches ; he also found a crumpled piece of paper, which resembled the bit of paper picked up near the fire. Mr. Justice Wriserratass having summed up these facts to the jury, after a short consultation they returned a verdict of Guilty. The Learned Judge, addressing the prisoner, said that he had been convicted of one of the worst offences known to the law, as it was impossible to anticipate what loss of life might ensue from it. It was necessary that the punishment should be somewhat in proportion to the offence. His Lordship then sentenced him to transportation for life. Henry Capel, a respectable-looking man, and a surgeon, was indicted for the manslaughter of his own child, Emily Ann Capel. Mr. Sewell prosecuted. Mr. Nixping. The facts of this case are very few. It was proved thak the prisoner had been married but a short time before the occurrence. The child killed was his first child, and was about 14 weeks old. A servant stated that she heard her mistress shriek out, and went into the kitchen where she was. The prisoner was there, and she saw a small stick on the ground, broken in two. On the child's head there was a mark, and some blood. The prisoner said it would not have happened, if the stick had not broken. An old nurse stated that she also went into the kitchen, and saw the stick and the mark on the child's head. She said to prisoner that he ought not to strike his wife. He replied that she had made use of bad words, and that it was necessary to correct her. She then took the child, which died in a few hours after. A surgeon proved that he had made a post mortem exami nation of the body, and that he attributed the death to the blow on the head. Mr. Mississa addreesed the jury for the prisoner, relying on .the unsatisfactory nature of the evidence. Mr. Justice WIGRTMAN ' in summing up, told the jury that if they were of opinion that the prisoner had attempted to strike his wife, and had occasioned the death of the child, though without intending it, he would be guilty of man slaughter, as beating his wife was an illegal act. If, how ever, they were not satisfied, and thought the blow was in flicted in some way by sheer accident, they must acquit him. After a short consultation they returned a verdict of Not Guilty. THE BANK CHARTER. The following is a copy of the petition presented to the house of Lords, on Friday, from the Society for the Emancipation of Industry, by the Earl of Mountcashel : To the Right Honourable the Lords Spiritual and • Temporal in_Parliament assembled. . The petition of the Members of the S , )ciefy for the Emaneipation of Industry hereby sheweth— That your petitioners are variously connected with, and interested in, trades and professions sNhich bring them to a knowledge of the difficulties which the Mone tary Law of 1819 has thrown in the way of all classes of producers ; and to a conviction of the privations and sufferings which it has inflicted upon artisans and la bonrers. Common Jury.) COlll3 V. STORY. This ease commenced on Thursday and did not con clude until late on Friday. It was an action brought by Mr. Cobb, a printer at Hertford, and also the proprietor of the Her ts "Cowity Press newspaper, against Mr. Story, the clerk of the peace fur that county, to recover a sum of 1501., for printing the register of voters for last year. Mr. Platt and Mr. Grimston were for the plaintiff, and Mr. Montague Chambers conducted the case for the defendant. It appeared from the statement of the Learned Counsel for the plaintiff and the evidence that was ad duced, that Mr. Cobb had been applied to last year to print a certain number of copies of the register of voters, and he was bound to complete the work v.ithin a given time, in conformity with the Act of Parliament. By employing extra hands and making great exertions, it was completed within the time, and the plaintiff sent in his bill, which amounted to 1501. A portion of the Ma gistra:es at the quarter sessions considered this amount excessive, and Mr. Cobb was called on for an explana tion, when he ass.xted that the charge was a reasonable one, and offered, in order to avoid all litigation, to sub mit the matter to any respectable London house and abide by its arbitration. The Atigistrates assented to this proposition, but instead of constilting Mr. Cobb, it appeared that they sent the register to Messrs. Shaw and Sens, of Fetter-lane, and inquiry for how much they would print the same number of copies, and those gen tlemen not being aware of the circumstances under which the register was printed, or the exertions required, estimated th cost at an amount considerably less than the plaintiff's demand. Upon this the quarter sessions refused to pay the bill, and tendered the plaintiff 451, and upon his refusing to take that sum they ultimately offered to give 75/, which sum he also refused, and after various attempts to have the business settled amicably, he was at length compelled to adopt the present pro ceeding to recover the sum due to him. In support of the plaintiffs, divers persons employed in their office were examined, who spoke to the exertions required to complete the work within the time, and wit n;sses from Messrs. Spotiswoode's, Hansard's, and other eminent printing establishments, were called to prove that the charge made by the plaintiff was very reason able ; and it was stated that the charge in London, at the lowest, would have been 180/. or 190/. for the same work, so that allowing for the difference of wages in London and the provinces, the charge was still very rea sonable. Mr. CHAMBERS, on behalf of the defendant, alluded to the necessity imposed upon the justices of protecting the inhabitants from any improper expenditure of the county rate, and he said the defence he was instructed to set up was that the amount offered to the plaintiff was quite sufficient compensation for the work performed by him. Witnesses were called in support of the Learned Coun sel's statement, who expressed their opinion that 761. was quite sufficient payment for the printing of the re gister ; and Mr. Dorant, a clerk n the defendant's office, was called to prove that on a former occasion the plaintiff had made a tender to print the register for 451 It appeared, however, in cross-examination, that at that time the work would hare been performed under very different circumstances; and would not have required so much exertion to complete it. Mr. Baron PARKE summed up the whole case to the jury, who, after deliberating for about a minute, re turned a verdict for the plaintiff for the full amount claimed.

That your petitioners had hoped, that when the time arrived for the reconsideration of the Bank Charter, some means would be taken for the correction of this grievous error ; but they are alarmed to see by the Bill which has just passed the House of Commons, and is now before your Lordships' House, that there is no in- IMPERIAL AUSTRIAN LOAN of 30, 0 00,000 FLORINS, authorised by his Majesty the EMPEROR of AUSTRIA.

Already the miseries endured under our monetary system, introduced in 1819, little under stood, but miserably felt, have expressed themselves in a desire for organic changes on the part of the operative classes. By such means the constitution of this country has become materially altered, and symptoms of this character still extensively exist. Your petitioners, with reference to the effect of an insufficiency of remuneration for labour, induced by the causes before assigned, cannot but refer with alarm to the distressing accounts daily re- ceived from Suffolk and other English counties. That the effect of the passing of the present measure will be an increase of pauperism, which will deprive the wealthy of much of the benefit they appear to derive from the lower prices of all commodities ; that the farmer and landowner will begin to find the pressure of the rates intolerable, attended, as it will be, by a great reduction in the average price of corn ; and that dis. affection and despair will soon convert our labouring people—once the most loyal, and still the most patient and enduring of any on the face of the earth—into a lawless, truculent, and revengeful race. That the reasons urged for the adoption of the Bill now before Parliament, are not only not justified, but con tradicted by the evidence of history, reason, and expe rience ; that the spirit and influence which dictated them has already seduced the House of Commons to vote— WESTERN ClRCUlT.—Winchester, July 13. CROWN COURT. (Before Mr. Justice WiGirrmax.) John Gurd, a boo, aged 16, was indicted for having fel°. niously assaulted 'Caroline Berger, a child under ten years of age. Mr. Sewell conducted the prosecution. The prisoner was defended by Mr. C. Saunders. • This is a case we should not refer to, but to give publicity to an important decision pronounced by the Learned Judge on a point of evidence. The prisoner had been in the employ of a Mr. Hancock, who was not the prosecutor, and in point of fact had nothing to do with the prosecution. When, however, the charge was made against the prisoner, and before he was apprehended, his master told him it would be much better for him to con fess, and if he did so, he would prevail, if he could, with the father of the child not to take any steps in the matter. The prisoner on this said, " If he (Mr. Hancock) would send for the surgeon he would confess." The surgeon was sent for, and the prisoner then made a satement. Mr. SAUNDERS, for the prisoner, objected to that statement being received in evidence. It was made, he contended, after an inducement held out to confess by his master who had sufficient authority over him, to render any statement subsequently made by the prisoner, in consequence of that inducement, inadmissible. The Learned Counsel cited 2 Russ on Crimes, p. 839, and the cases there cited. Mr. SEWELL, on behalf of the Crown, contended that, in order to render a statement inadmissible that had been made in consequence of an inducement held out by a third person, it was absolutely necessary that that third person should be one in some way connected with the charge, and having some authority in reference to it. Mr. Justice WIGIITMAN (after consultation with his Learned brother, Mr. Justice Patteson) decided that the party hold ing out the inducement being clothed with the authority of " master," was sufficient to exclude the statement made ni consequence of such inducement. Mr. SEWELL then stated to the jury that, in consequence of the decision, he did not think that be could support the case, and he should therefore not proceed with it. A verdict of Not Guilty was then returned, and the pri soner was discharged. Robert Baez was indicted for the murder of John Harrison, by shooting him with a pistol. Mr. Sewell prosecuted. The prisoner was defended by Mr. Cockburn and Mr. Raulinson. On the case being called on, Mr. RAULINSON stated to the Court that he should demur to the indictment, which he ac cordingly did. Several grounds of objection were urged in the demurrer, but all were abandoned but one. This was that the indictment charged the prisoner with having com mitted this murder on the high seas, and, that there was no proper venue. In the margin was thedvepue "Hampshire." Then there was an inducement stating; Wit t the parties were on the high seas when tip. alleged bffenee was committed. The indictment after this inducement went on to allege each fact to have taken place "then and there," without directly averring that it was upon the high seas. Mr. RAULINSON contended that the averment of place was not s ufficient. It ought to have averred in express terms that each fact had taken place on the high seas, 2 Stock Cr. Pl. 455. The only venue of importance in this indictment was that in the margin, which was Hampshire. The " then and there consequently must be referred to this venue, and not to that stated in the indictment. But even if it were not so held, it would still be bad for uncertainty, as it would not then appear to which venue the " then and there " re ferred ; and the King v. Rolls, 1 Re. Rep. 223, was cited as an authority. Mr. SEWELL argued that the " then and there " must necessarily have reference to the last venue, which was the immediate antecedent. Mr. Justice WIGIITMA N (after consulting with Mr. Justice Patteson), decided in favour of the Crown; and the prisoner was called upon to plead over. Mr. COCKBURN then put in a special plea, which was to this effect :—That the alleged offence had been committed on the high seas. near to Spalatro, in Italy. That a charge had been preferred against the prisoner at Spalatro, alleging the crime to have been committed within the jurisdiction of that Court. That that charge had been gone into, and the pri soner acquitted. Mr. SEWELL prayed some time to consider this plea, which was granted by the Court. After the Learned Counsel had done, he informed the Court that he had deter mined to take issue upon it, which he did in the regular form and manner. The jury were then charged to inquire of the truth of this plea. contrary to its recorded opinion under happier auspices —that what is morally wrong may be politically right ; that the labour, which is destructive to the health of fac tory women and children of tender years, which is an impediment to their moral improvement and religious instruction, and a means, it is to be feared, of destroying their souls as well as their lives, is yet so necessary to the manufacturing and commercial interests of this great nation, that these wretched slaves cannot be suffered to remit even a sixth part of their daily toil ; that this miserable alternative is a consequence of that ill-advised measure of 1819, which will be more fearfully aggravated in its effects on these victims of an erroneous money system, when the new law has given increased severity to the old one ; and that the blessing of Heaven cannot be expected to rest upon this country if evils of such magnitude as these are to be the fruits of its legislation. That your petitioners humbly submit, that the very fact of gold being the most convenient measure of ex change between countries trading on equal terms, renders it the most unfit to form the currency of a country more highly taxed than others—that the only currency suited to a country in the highly-taxed con dition of Great Britain, is a symbolic currency (that is, one without intrinsic value), a medium of interchange The prisoner was defended by NORTHERN CIRCUIT—York, July 12. (Before Mr. Justice CRESSWELL) William Anderson was indicted for a burglary in the house of Ann Wood, at Haworth, on the 23d of April last. Mary Cowl and Ann Robinson were charged with receiving the proceeds of the robbery, knowing that they had been stolen. Mr. Elsey and Mr. Pulleine conducted the case for the pro. secution ; Mr. Wilkins appeared as counsel for Cowl, and Mr. Bliss for Robinson. The principal witness against Anderson was a young lad, fourteen years of age, who had been an accomplice in the robbery, and was now admitted evidence for the Crown. He said that the.day before the robbery was committed he came to York with the prisoner Anderson, and went to lodge in Wah - ngate, in the house of Mary Cowl. He came from .u, and on the way between Hull and Beverley became ac ll quainted with Anderson. Anderson, in the course of conver sation with him, asked him if he would like to be a "finger smith," and said that he (Anderson) would be the "nailor." The day after they came to York, Anderson and he went to Mary Cowl's about five o'clock, and after loitering about for some time they came to Mrs. Wood's house. Anderson then took a chisel out of his coat pocket and prised the door open. Both went in and went up stairs. They searched the house and tried to get into the room where Mrs. Wood slept, but finding the inmates were being disturbed, they took the things which they had already found, and left the house. Knaggs then went on to state that they returned to Cowl's, and there saw Cowl and Robinson ; that they showed to them the things which had been taken from Mrs. Wood's; that they got part of the plunder, and assisted in concealing the remainder. The fact of the robbery having been proved by other testimony, evidence was adduced to show that the prisoner Anderson, in company with Knaggs, was seen loitering about Heyworth the evening of the robbery, and about eight o'clock were observed getting over the fence out of the garden of the prosecutrix. It appeared also, that on the constable going to Cowl's house, she at first denied that Anderson had brought any bundle to her house, but on its being found in the coal-hole with a quantity of stolen pro perty, she said he had brought a bundle, but she thought he had taken it away with him again. Mr. Wilkins and Mr. Bliss addressed the jury for the pri soners Cowl and Robinson. His LORDSnIP having summed up, The jury found Anderson Guilty; acquitting the female prisoners.---Sentence was deferred. Charles Cluderay was charged with having, at Bradford, on the 30th of March last, robbed John Clayton. Mr. Hardy and Mr. Johnstone were for the prosecution ; in order to prove it, an Italian was called, who swore that he knew the handwriting of the chief registrar of the Civil and Criminal Court of Spalatro. He also stated that he knew the seal of that Court, and had seen the original. A paper was then put into his hand, and he swore that the signature to the paper was the signature of the chief registrar, and that the seal attached to it was the seal of this Court. The paper was then tendered in evidence. Mr. SEWELL objected to its reception. He contended that before it could be made evidence it must be proved that the Court had jurisdiction over this offence, and that some lawyer acquainted with the cases of the parties must prove that this paper was in the nature of a record, and that it was, in point of fact, a valid instrument. Mr. Justice WioirrnAN admitted it. On its being read it proved to be a document in the shape of a certificate to this effect :—That the prisoner had been tried at Spalatro for homicide; that he had been convicted and sentenced to five years' imprisonment; that an appeal bad been brought in a superior court ; and that the judgment had been ordered to be suspended, and the prisoner discharged. It was then contended, on the part of the Crown, that there was no evidence that the prisoner had been duly acquitted. That the prisoner ought to have produced the whole of the record, in order to see what the charge was, and upon what grounds the acquittal had taken place. It was replied, on the part of the prisoner, that this docu ment was sufficient proof of the trial and the acquittal, and the case of Rex v. Colson, 1 Leach, 135, was cited as an au thOrity. Mr. Justice WiGirr3tAx decided against its sufficiency, en the ground that it did not appear, from the paper, that the judgment was final. The language of the document was that the judgment be suspended. For anything that he (the Learned Judge) could tell to the contrary, this suspension of the judgment had been obtained on the ground of some formal defect in the proceedings, and not upon the merits, and there was nothing to show that it could be pleaded in bar to an other charge preferred at Spalatro. The jury were then directed by the Learned Judge to find that the prisoner had not been previously acquitted, &c., which they did, and their verdict was then finally entered. The prisoner was again arraigned, and pleaded not guilty, and the trial proceeded in the usual manner. Mr. Sewell then opened the case, and informed the jury that he should give up the charge of murder, and press the case against the prisoner only as a charge of manslaughter. Having detailed the circumstances of the case, he called witnesscs to prove it, who spoke to the following facts : The prisoner was the master of the brig called the Chief tain, and the deceased was one of the men under his com mand. In February, in this year, the brig was lying off Spalatro, in Italy. The men one day went on shore and ,several of them got intoxicated, among whom was the de ceased and the ship's carpenter, who was now called as a wit ness, and who also spoke cf themanner in which the deceased had met with his death. On their return on board it was the time of the deceased and SpiLsbury (the ship's carpenter) Hill for the prisoner. The prosecutor in this case is, it appeared, a coal-miner, and on the day in question had been at Bradford-market. On his return home in the evening, having arrived at a place called Bowling-lane, near Bradford, he was attacked by four men, who knocked him down, and took from him some mut ton, lard, and other articles. He was so much injured by the blow he received, that he was unable to give any account of the persons by whom he had been assaulted, and was con veyed home in a very precarious state, so much so that his life was for some time in very considerable danger. Two persons who were at some little distance at the time of the robbery, and saw the transaction, spoke to the prisoner as being one of the parties engaged in it. The prisoner was found Gu►lty.—Sentence deferred.

Your petitioners, therefbre, humbly submit, that even if your Lordships see fit to pass the said Bill during the present session, it should contain a provision that the Bank of England should be required to pay the amount of these notes on demand in gold, at the market price only, and not at the Mint price. That admitting the propriety of such regulations as may prevent fraud, your petitioners deprecate as unwise, impolitic, unconstitutional, and unjust, all those parts of the Bank Charter Bill which limit the amount of private transactions of trade in the shape of promissory notes, as tending unnecessarily and mischievously to cripple the energies of the nation, and to deprive the working classes of desirable employment. That your petitioners, therefore, humbly pray that they may be suffered to prove, before a Select Committee of your Right Honourable House, the truth of the alle gations they herein make, in order that the before-men tioned Bill may not receive the sanction of your Lord ships ; and that your petitioners may receive such relief as, in the estimation of your Right Honourable House, their case may seem to require.

Office of the Society, 22, Parliament-street, July 8, 1844. My Lord,—The Committee of the Society for the Emancipation of Industry earnestly call the attention of your Lordship to the consequences which must ensue from the Bank of England Charter Bill passing through Parliament in its present state. The Committee are convinced that the sure tendency of the measure is still further to impair the fair return to capital and industry in this kingdom, by a contraction of the circulating medium, when, in point of fact, an ex pansion of the circulation is imperatively required to relieve the increasing productive energies of this highly taxed country ; to prevent the continued depression of the wages of labour, and the miseries of the operative classes incident to it ; and to avert that diminution of rents of land which, viewed in connexion with the exist ing charges upon it, threatens to deliver over our landed interest to the iron grasp of the money power. The Committee of the Society are induced to hope that the Bill in question will yet be stayed, until a dis tinct inquiry is instituted into the probable effect of the measure. They are more anxious that this investiga tion should take place, because it cannot fail to have been observed, that throughout the discussion in the House of Commons, the Prime Minister, who has con ducted the Bill, has studiously avoided any reference to the National Debt and indirect taxation of the country — essential elements in the question of the currency. The Society for the Emancipation of Industry have endeavoured to bring before the public and Parliament the following important considerations : That were Parliament legislating for the currency of a country in which direct taxation only existed, a cur• rency such as that now proposed, of gold, at 3/. 17s. WV the continental price, or a paper convertible into precious metals at that rate, might be consistent and j ust. That the monetary Bill of 1819 was based on the erroneous principle of requiring the Bank of England to take up its notes at a Mint price, fixed prior to the existence of the present scale of the National Debt and taxation ; that the fluctuations and panics that have occurred have arisen from the attempt to compel the Bank of England to pay its notes in gold, otherwise than at the market price in such notes, as in the years between 1797 and 1819 ; and that the more rigorous " complement" of the Bill of 1819 can only serve to aggravate instead of to prevent such fluctuations and panics, when from a failing harvest, or foreign loans, or other investments, or a disturbance of the balance of trade, gold shall flow out of the countr y . That whenever prices expand in this country to a re munerating level, —namely, to that just and proper level which permits of taxation being added to natural or gold prices,—then, under our present system, gold, not being permitt ed to rise in price, becomes the cheapest commodity in the British market, and is sure to be ex ported in' preference to our manufactured goods. That Life large amount of taxation in this country, levied first by Customs and Excise on the producing classes, to the extent of about thirty-five millions annu ally, enhances the price of all commodities produced, and consequently requires a circulating medium so expansive in its nature as to permit taxation, indirectly levied, to be added to natural price ; without such a medium, the taxation, foi the most part, rests upon the producing classes—an end unjust, impolitic, in its issue ruinous, and never contemplated by the Legislature when this form of taxation was imposed.

THE MANUFACTURES OF PAISLEY.—At this moment, when the manufacturing skill of France is fos tered and promoted by Government awards and honours, it is exceedingly gratifying that the skill of our own native weavers has afforded another proof of their un surpassed skill and industry.

That what was called depreciation of the paper currency in that day was really nothing more than the just opera tion of a symbolic currency, not intrinsically valuable allowing the indirect _taxation ex 7 sting in this country to be added to natural price, that :A* say, the pound to become less available in ath . , -- 0 irchase of commodities in exact proportion as thr.,', of such commodities had become enhanced by iniliteetYaaxation. This state of the circulation, which is calculated to facilitate foreign as well as the home trade, existed from the year 1797 to 1819, when the system of such sym bolic money was abandoned, and it became impos sible in future, to any just extent, to add indirect taxa tion to price. That from its scarcity, and limited extent as a com modity, gold is not desirable, will not suffice, and indeed is unfit as a medium of internal circulation in this country ; although a most suitable com modity for measuring the transactions and in terchanges of nation with nation. That to adopt gold at its natural value as the national currency, is a retrogression from civilisation—is indeed to revert to the ancient and rude system of barter, admitting of no modification arising from circumstances as they exist in this nation. That the gold equivalent currency, pro posed for the future to rule in this country, can only admit of a range of prices on the level of gold—namely, the untaxed continenterl level. That the paper-money proposed to be `issued by the Bank of England and the provincial banks, under the sanction of the Crown, to the extent of thirty-nine millions, is intended ultimately to be based on Govern ment securities and on gold conjointly ; the latter, being in the proportion of one-third, will have the effect of keeping down the whole paper circulation to the gold level. The Committee of this Society submit that it would be far more simple, economical, effective, and at the same time more sound, to adopt at once all issue of paper from the Exchequer in convenient negotia ble amounts, to the extent of taxation ; or an arrangement for the purpose might still exist iii connection with the Bank of England—such paper, after being issued for value, to be receivable in the payment of taxes, and to be convertible into gold at the market price in such paper. Let it be assumed that' the annual taxation of the country is now fifty millions—the issue of Exchequer money so proposed would, if required by internal com merce, increase the amount proposed to be issued on seem - Lies and bullion eleven millions only; it would enable the Government to pay off the debt owing to the Bank of England, leaving the capital of that establish ment for its legitimate purposes; it would save the na tion annually in interest one million and a half ; it would diminish in extent, in proportion as taxation, the cause of its adoption as a symbolic currency, diminished and rendered it unneccessary. The proposed issue would lift up prices generally to a remunerating level—would leave the foreigner to sell to eur merchants, or to wr chase from them with gold, which would exist abun dantly in the country as a commodity, on terms equita ble to both parties—and would remove those heart burnings and contending interests between classes of producers by which the nation has been agitated sines the passing of the Bill in 1819. It is only right, therefore, that the Govetenment should show how, in this country, prices are to be kept down—as Sir Robert Peel has publicly avowed he de signs they should be, to the level ofogold—and the taxa tion incident to the National Debt is to be defrayed. It is right, too, the Minister should show with what justice —until the National Debt is paid off or extensively re duced-the Government of this country can confine the interchanges of the nation to a currency that has the effect of throwing so heavy a sum of taxation as that of the Excise and Customs on the industrious classes of tho nation—an effect most unjust and oppressive to those classes, leading to the overstrained, because underpaid, employment of the factory, and to the insufficient remu neration of agricultural labour. Till these objections are satisfactorily answered, this , Society respectfully submit that it is due to the agricul tural, manufacturing, and industrial classes of this coun try, that the Bill now before Parliament should be thoroughly investigated. Delay would not interfere with the proper notice to the Bank of England; and it is most desirable that the reason or truth of the objec tions here advanced should form the subject of inquiry before a Committee of the House of Lora:;.• With these views, the Society trust your, Lordship will be induced to take such a course as will ba:e the effect of ascertaining the truth or error of the averments made;—if true, they should have an important effect id the regulation of the currency; if untrue, it is impor tant for the quiet and satisfaction of the nation, and the industrious classes generally , that tilese rapidly extend ing opinions should be disproved. I have the honour to remain my Lord, your Lord ship's most obedient servant, ANDREW SPOTTISWOODE, Chairman. THE CURRENCY. In his speech on the subject of the New Poor-law, Mr. Cochrane fortified his positions by arguments bolhrOTred from Sir James Graham's work on " Corn and Currency." The Right Hon. Baronet, in reply, sought to justify once his former opinions and his present course of action, "I still hold," exclaimed the Home Secretary, " that the Act of 1819 inflicted cruel injury on debtors, and on the agricultural body ; but in such matters time is everything ; and I am ntt now prepared to vote for a repeal of the currency law of 1819." Sir James Graham errs deeply in his conclusion on this subject. In a matter like the money law of 1819, " time" is not " everything," nor will any lapse. of time deprive . such a measure of its destructive in fluences. Within the last fifty years England has been visited with two currency revolutions. Of these, the first was the suspension of cash payments in 1797; the second was the resumption of cash payments in 1819. These two revolutions aimed at diametrically opposite objects. The first involved a confiscation of a portion of the property of creditors. The second involved a confiscation of a portion of the property of debtors and producers. Both the revolutions in question may be described as dishonest in their nature. But although equally dishonest, they have not been equally destructive. _ _ To rob creditors is, generally speaking, to rob the rich of their superfluities. To rob debtors and producers is, frequently, to doom these classes to the deepest misery. There is another distinction between the character of the two operations. In robbing creditors, a Goveraiment can impart completeness to its work. In robbing debtors and producers, the process, if on a large scale, never can be brought to a close. The Act for the suspension of cash payments may have robbed creditors of one -third, or of one-half, of the money which they had lent. The money had changed hands, and the authority of the law absolved the debtor from the necessity of paying the full amount of the money which he had borrowed. The debtor held in his own hands the power of profiting by an unjust law. The Act for the resumption of cash payments did not, and could not, lead to such decisive issues. The money law of 1819 has indeed added fifty per cent. to the mass of debt existing at that time ; but the severiey and injustice of that law have not led to a settlement of our public and private debts. The mass of debt has, in other words, been ordered to be paid, at a fearfully enhanced rate ; but the order has been obeyed, only to the most inconsiderable extent. What, in fact, does Sir James Graham mean, when he declares that, " in a matter like the currency law of 1819, time is everything ?" Has the efflux of time, since 1819, paid the national debt ? Has the efflux of time, since 1819, paid the al most incalculable mass of private debt which existed at that period ? In reference to the operation of a mea sure like the suspension of cash payments, " time " is, indeed, " everything," because, in such a case the debtor has received and spent his creditor's money; but, in reference to the operation of a measure like the cur rency law of 1819, " time "is nothing—for the creditor class has not, except to an inconsiderable extent, been able to realise the principal of that debt, which it has boen the pleasure of the Legislature so unjustly to augment. Leaving, however, the case of mere debtors and cre ditors, let us consider the case of producers—a class whose interests are always identical with the interests of debtors. Producers have an interest in the establish • ment of high prices : so have debtors. The higher the reward of industry, the more easy does it become to dis charge debt. Take, then, the case of producers. Can it be said that with reference to their social position, the operation of the currency law of 1819 is changed in its character by " time ?" The currency law of 1819 destroyed the relations of value which then subsisted betwon money and labour. Has the lapse of time since 1819 restored those relations ? Has the currency law of 1819—professing, as it did, to restore the standard of value which existed before 1797—restored. those rela tions of value between labour and money, which pre vailed before the introduction of the AetP for suspending cash payments ? To assume, as the bullionists do, that by the money law of 1819, they restored the old standard of value, is simply absurd. They merely re-adopted the old Mint price of gold. They did not restore the old standard a • value, inasmuch as they did not restore to labour the Ile , relative value which it possessed before 1797.—P05t. DISSENTERS' CHAPELS BlLL.—This Bill, which has passed both Houses of Parliament, and was to have be6n brought up in the Lords on Monday last, for considera tion of the amendments introduced by the Commons, was, as our readers may be aware, postponed till thu Thursday following. The reasons of such postponement may not be known, and we therefore state them. On the very eve of the consideration of the amendments it came to the knowledge of the Lord Chancellor that the Bishop of London had been canvassing several of the aged and infirm members of the House, and had obtained their proxies, for the purpose of obtaining a majority against the Government, and enabling him to carry his proposition for considering the amendments " that day six months." It is reported the Bishop had obtained no less than seventy proxies, and if the mea sure had been brought forward, the Government would have been defeated, and bigotry and illiberality trium phant. However, Lord Lyndhurst is not the man to be humbugged, and, therefore, on discovering the plot., he postponed the measure for a few days, and has further postponed it till Monday next.—Sunday Times. EARLY HARVEST.—On Monday last Mr. Rigden cut a tine piece of oats off his Moulscombe farm, near this place.—Brightou Gazette. Part of a field of wheat in the parish of Eglesheale, near Wadebridge, was cut on the i .99th of June and on the Ist of this mo nth. Harvest might have also been seen in the adjoining parish of St. Breock. We have heard that Mr. Rowe, of Lamaile, in the former parish, intends to carry several bushels of new wheat to Bodinin market, on the 6th inst. This is much earlier than for several years past.— Wiltshire Independent. A sparrow, with a bent ring of gold on one of its legs, was shot at Fulford, near Taunton, on Wedrislay last.
