MECM'S TABLE CUTLERY has long been famed for its admirable qualities, combined with cheapness. His manufactory is at No. 4, Leadenhall-street, four doors from Corn hill.

His peculiar steel razors and magia strop and paste have given comfort to many a suffering shaver; and the ladies pronounce his scissors to be unequalled. BASS'S PAL E AL E. Messrs. BASS and CO., with every wish to avoid whatever many serve to prolong a dispute, of which they are fully sensible of the indignity, conceive that they are called on to make a brief reply to Messrs: Allsopp's advertisement of the 28th ult., as far only as is necessary to vindicate the accuracy of their own statements. It will have been observed that, with the exception of their returns of the shipments of the current season, Messrs. Allsopp have not at tempted to contradict a single statement advanced by Messrs. Bass and, Co.. neither do they deny that, their_Lckrences.are highest authority. They resort for qttotatinitt 'favourable to nameless prices current and to the letters of their own agents, and they go back to dates extending over October, November, December, and January, while the quotations of Messrs. Bass and Co., referred specifically to the latest reports of prices in December, which reached here by the Overland Mail in - February. Messrs. Bass and Co. quoted an actual sale of that date in Calcutta at 80 rupees. A plain account of this transaction will show in what manner Messrs. Allsopp, who had learnt its true nature from the documents Messrs. Bass and Co. placed within their reach, have perverted the facts relating to it. On the 220 of December, Messrs. I. Mackey and Co. sold ten butts, equal to twenty hhds. of beer, daily expected to arrive, per " Tecumseh," half at 75 and half at 80 rupees. On the arrival of the vessel it wits found that having fallen short of provisions, the troops on board had consumed sixteen hhds. In the meantime the market had advanced, y g fe in ss a i l s p . rice, and and the sixteen hhds. were charged and paid for at the current mar ket7ov ereclat the etor2 t rupees; All sopp, notwithstanding they had seen the letters of advice of the sale pricetwo being 90 rupees, ullag two i(n o hhds. t of twenty hhds., have represented this as a sale of two casks only. ere realised del Messrs. Allsopp insist that Messrs. Bass and Co.'s returns of ship ments for the present season are "grossly untrue." Those returns were collected from the customary public sources of information—to which indeed Messrs. Allsopp refer when it suits their purpose—and as far as relates to their own shipments, Messrs. Bass and Co. know them to be accurate, while Messrs. Allsopp's contradiction rests upon their own unsupported assertion. Their home trade for Pale Ale having quadrupled within the last four years, Messrs. Bass and Co. have been compelled to limit their foreign trade, and to decline large orders from their most valued correspondents ; but a recent addition to their Brewery, though not fully in work until January, and still incomplete, has enabled them to ship, within the last six months, as may be seen by the excise entries and subsequent clearances : - The whole of these stocks or funds to be free from any future property-tax, and all dividends to be paid free from any future charge or tax whatever—save and except that all original acceptors of any of these stocks shall be at liberty to transfer the same free of all charge, but that on all second and subsequent transfers a charge of one-shilling per cent. shall.be • made, to be accounted for to the Government. That the Government contemplates a redemption of the Three per Cent. Stocks at no very distant period, is most clearly evident by the guarantee given to the holders of the late Three-and-a-Half per Cent. Stock, that their new stock shall not be paid off before the expiration of 30 vears. Perhaps within 10 years—nay, rather say less than 5 years, the Throe per Cents. may be redeemed ; in fact, the redemption should not be delayed too late, so as to allow the Three per Cents. to bear a high rate of premium. Had France proceeded to redeem her Five per Cent. Rentes, when they were:at or near par, she would have had but little difficulty in doing so, but having de layed until the Five per Cents. are at 120, there is a most violent opposition to the paying the holders off at 100, being the amount due from that country to her creditors. The creditors grumble at being paid their debts in full ! By the creation of a voluntary Two-and-Three-Quarter per Cent. Stock, parties would rush to lx come acceptors when the Three per Cents. shall begat a premium, so as to lead to a probability of their redemption, especially if the amount of such new stock should be limited. The guarantee from re demption for 56 years, and freedom from future taxes, I feel convinced would induce many long-sighted holders of Three per Cent. Stock to em brace the offer much earlier than many persons would contemplate—the acceptance of this stock would con fer an instant benefit to the country. With regard to the latter propositions for creating stocks of a higher rate of interest, this conversion, it must be obvious, would not cause an immediate re duction of the expenditure of the country, but will enable our grandchildren, at a future period, most materially to benefit themselves by a reduction of the proposed interest at the expiration of the period limited by Parliament. Supposing each new stock, viz. the Four, Five, and Six per Cent., to be limited to 30,000,0001. each, the debt of the country on all the new stocks being com pleted, would be reduced 60,000,0001., it would take 40,000,000/. of Three per Cent. stock to create 30,000,0001. of the new Four per Cent.-50,000,000/. of the Three per Cent. stock to create 30,000,0001. of the new Five per Cent. stock-60,000,000/. of the Three per Cent. stock to create 30,000,000/. of the new Six per Cent. stock. The total reduction of debt would be— Total .... • • • • 10,830 hhds. It will also have been remarked that this dispute originated In Messrs. Allsopp's publishing returns of shipments for 1841-42 in such a manner as led to the inference that they were those of last year. L► endeavouring to excuse themselves for producing an erro neous impression by means of the equivocal words "for one year past," they now assert that the exports of the two houses last year "were as nearly as possible in the same proportion" as those of 1841-42 which they published; whereas, the truth is that the Excise returns, which are obviously of equal authority for both years, show, that so far from being in the same proportion, the ex ports of 3tessss. Allsopp fell off last year 611 hhds., while those o f Messrs. Bass and Co. increased 2,177 hhds. Messrs. Bass and Co. are content to leave the fact just stated to bear its own comment, and in retiring from this unseemly altercation, they trust it will be ap parent to all who have made themselves acquainted with its character from the beginning, that they have been forced reluctantly to intrude on the public attention in a manner which they are quite sensible would, under other circumstances, have been altogether without excuse. Barton-upon-Trent, April 10, 1844. On Four per Cent. stock £10,000,000 Five per Cent. stock 20,000,000 Six per Cent. stock 30,000,000 £60,000,000 We ought to avoid the inconsiderateness of our grand fathers in loading us with such an immense amount of debt, and endeavour to help our own grandchildren, who will have to work the world in time to come. If our own fathers and grandfathers had only bor rowed money on biddings of interest, instead of bid bings for a certain amount of stock, our debt even at this present moment would now be very little more than two-thirds of what it is. To illustrate this point, we will say that the Chancellor of the Exchequer in those days did not obtain more than 661. 13s. 4d. cash for 1001. Five per Cent. Stock. Thus, for every 1001. cash that went into the Exchequer, 1501. Five per Cent. stock was created; so the Government in reality paid 7i per cent. for the cash realised. Had the Chancellor declared that he wanted 1001. cash, and that he would take the offer of the party willing to lend it at the lowest rate of interest, and he had found he must give 7i per cent. for it, he had better have done so, inasmuch as he would have left the country a debtor of 1001. only, instead of by the manner which was adopted, that left the country a country a debtor of 1501., being 50 per cent. more than the mode I relate in this little digression. The most implicit faith should be shown to parties who should accept any of the offers, but the time for acceptance should be limited within twelve months for the purpose of affording Parliament an oppor tunity to make such future alterations and modifica tions as the state of the money market or other cir cumstances may warrant. These hints are merely thrown out as principles, not as matters of detail to be carried out to the letter; for perhaps a Two Seven-Eight per Cent. stock may be deemed more preferable than the Two-and- Three-Quarter one, and a greater or lesser amount of Three per Cent. stock for conversion into the new Four, Five, or Six per Cent. may be deemed expe dient; or perhaps the whole scheme may be but worthy a laugh or a sneer ; but as currency and finance doctors were to be at full liberty to advance the most absurd and ridiculous doctrines and sugges tions without being severely handled by the critic, I venture on making public my crotchets, in the hopes that, should they be found but worthy of being classed with those I have named, they will be passed over with the like insignificant treatment.—l am, Sir, yours, &e., ROBERT W. DICKINSON. Ilfracombe, April 8, 1844. TURNPIKE JUGGLES. TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN. Sin,—New turnpike roads are generally projected by parties, whose property will he most materially improved by the new road. I verily believe that no new road ever was made but that if the property a mile right and left of it, on the completion, were submitted to auction, it would obtain a much gre a t er value than the whole line of road cost in the purchase of the land, and all expenses of obtaining the Act of Parliament, and every expense of completing it. Yet, although this is generally the case, the landowners themselves are the most backward in advancing cash to promote the object; they try to rival each other in their exorbitant demands of price for the small por tion of land required, and it is a singular fact that, when the line is laid down that the piece required for the new road is instantly discovereil to be the very best bit of land on the estate. Well, Mr. Landowner, instead of being paid cash for his bit of land, say worth 201., is very readily granted a poll. strangers deed or imaotrhtgeangeeigfohrhesaor/h.,oodand, cash wila is obtained for interest in no direct from the road itself, but m erel y look remuneration from the tolls, in order to afford interest for the money. Now it must be taken into consideration, that a lthough Mr. Landowner does not happ en to get any interest whatever for his poll deed or mortgage, yet his land is increased in value more than the value of the land taken away, so that he is uninjured, if the amount of tolls will not yield him an interest. The road is commenced perhaps when only one-half or two-thirds of the money required is subscribed. Now when this money is expended, how is the road to be completed ? A meeting of the subscribers is called together, and they are told that there will ho no pro bability of their ever having their money back again if they do not agree to make some sacrifice; a propo sition is brought before them, that the money re quired shall be borrowed on mortgage, the present subscribers entering into a bond or agreement to forego any claim until the money so borrowed is paid off, together vith a certain interest then to be deter mined on. Thb landowners holding poll deeds, pres sing on this agreement and voting for it. Then there is no difficulty in obtaining the money, and the road is completed, the whole of the tolls going to pay the principal arid interest on the latter sum advanced, the original cash sub scribers not having a penny—many of these parting with their original 1001. claims for 501., 601., or 70/. —these are bought up by the wide-awake ones. When the latter sum is nearly paid off, it is disco vered that it would be highly desirable to extend the line on four other new roads in the immediate neigh bourhood, under the same trust. The Act is ob tained, and the new juggle begins.

GEORGE ROBINS is instructed by the Proprietor to SELL by PUBLIC COMPETITION, at , the Auction Mart, on I UESDA V, the Vtli May, CREMORNE HOUSE, CHELSEA, WITH ITS FASCINATING AND BEAUTIFULLY ORNAMENTED GROUNDS, on the bank of the River. This far-famed place of entertainment is offered most opportunely to spirited individuals. Vauxhall.g.irdens have ceased to exist. They did not move with :ufficient judgment or activity, and consequently fell a victim ; but a dis;erning public will necessarily require, and immediately A MORE PERFECT VAUXHALL, combining advantages that were entirely overlooked at the old spot, and avoiding the manifest imperfections, so often, and at Let so fatally predicted, to that of the old school. THE MARCH OF IMPROVEMENT, progressing at a railway pace, from the new Palace towards the once favoured abode of LORD AND LADY CREMORNE warrants the fearless assertion that a spirited individual, with a moderate capital, and 'an observing and reflecting mind, must soon realise a large fortune; if he possess but tact and can bega novelty, he will leave no feeling:of lament that the purified spirit of old Vauxhall has risen in a more fashionable region. During this month, THREE GALA DAYS have delighted th. , usands of visitors, and put an enormous gain into the pocket of the spirited in dividual who originated it The letting of the Groands for public or private fetes, flower-shows, &c., will proceed without iatetruption. Mr. Robins would enlist the capitalist speculator to bear in mind that a SPLENDID INDEPENDENCE can be reaped by skill ful management. The situation is in itself beautiful, and of daily increasing importance.

It will doubtless be considered a great desideratum by the profession. The following extract from the prospectus will sufficiently explain the nature of the work:—" The Military An nual will comprise a continuous history of the military organisation of all countries, both ancient and modern, successively tracing the progressive improvements in arms from the earliest period, and adverting to Martial Law, the Proceedings of Courts-martial, &c. The late improvements or inventions appertaining to the three arms of the service (Artillery, Cavalry, and Infantry) will be succinctly noted, and as far as possible each:sub ject will be rendered not only interesting to the corps itself, but also attractive to every soldier. A review will be taken of Military, Scientific, and Geographical Works published during the year, and a portion of the Annual will be devoted to Biography, to Memoirs, and to the relation of heroic feats of arms. An Almanac will be introduced to record those days which have been ren dered memorable by the examples of courage and dis cipline; and the decease of men who have distinguished themselves in the service of their country will be duly recorded. Every effort, in short, will be exerted to render this work a truly useful military compendium, and a welcome adjunct to the library of every officer." AFFLICTING ACCIDENT.—Tuesday, about one in the afternoon, George Thomas Combder, a fine little fellow, the son of a brazier, residing at No. 26, Old Gravel-lane, after ascending some steps in front of the house, by some accident tumbled into the carriage way in Old Gravel-lane. A waggon, belonging to Mr. Charles, the soap-boiler, in Wapping, was passing at the instant, and the poor child rolled right under the vehicle, and between the feet of the shaft horse. The animal did not, however, touch it, and the little fellow would have avoided the dreadful fate which just awaited him, had it not been for the screams of his affrighted mother. The poor wo man, observing the frightfully perilous situation in which her child was placed, and dreading that the horse would trample it to &nth, screamed out vio -1.-ntly. The waggoner, who, up to this time, was per fectly unconscious of what had happened, instantly stopped his horses, but the waggon was at the moment ascending the rise to the weigh-bridge, and instead of stopping instantly, it receded 12 or 18 inches, and one o f the hind wheels backing over the head of the child pressed it to a mummy. The feelings of the poor mother, who had witnessed the dreadful scene, and who was the unintentional cause of the catastrophe, may be imagined. Thomas Willett, the waggoner, was taken into custody for having caused the death of the child, and brought to the station-house in King David-lane. A gentleman named Perkins, who had witnessed the acci dent, attended at the station-house, and declared to the sergeant on duty that not the slightest blame was at tachable to him. On hearing this, and the father of the deceased refusing to make any charge against him, the sergeant allowed Willett to depart, on his promising to attend on the inquest. Ernst, the violinist, has created quite a furor at Manchester, by his recent performances there.

Nay, the cost of the original road was 12,0001., and 4,0001. was borrowed to complete it, and this 4,000/. effectually discharged. Now comes the juggle—the landowners, who have had poll deeds or mortgages granted to them for double the value of the land given up, and whose property has been posi tively increased in value by the new road, and whose real interest would have been to have given the land, and also those who have purchased poll deeds or mortgages at perhaps half price, together with the few original subscribers, are made claimants for the amount of th e a rrear of interest from the very first commencement of the original Act, and granted fresh poll deeds or mortgages for the whole amount of interest, so that, if there were ten years' interest due, at 5 per cent, the debt which was originally 12,0001., 4,0001. of which has been paid off, then appears to be only 8,0001. ; but when the new poll deeds are granted for the ten years' arrear of interest, the debt instantly becomes 12,0001. again, the subscribers to the new line of road are not told the rig, so these old parties come in for an additional security by being entitled to share the tolls, not only on the line for which they had advanced their money, but also on the new line of road autho rised by the new Act. From this time, they obtain interest upon interest. In some instances, I believe it may be found that poll deeds have been granted to the amount of compound interest from the advance of money to the date of the new poll deed. Very curious things would come out if Parliament were to appoint a Commission of first-rate accountants, to investigate the proceedings of Turnpike Act trustees. In too many instances, no trustees attend any meeting but those immediately interested.—l am, Sir, &c., &c., ONE BEHIND THE SCENES. Agril 2, 1844. THE DESTITUTE POOR. One of the earliest, and not the least, prominent ef fects of the corn-laws, was a rapid increase in the numbers of the permanently indigent, who are, at the best of times, inseparable from a people exposes to the vicissitudes of trade and commerce. The continued operation of a tax, which opposes obstacles to interna• tional communication, and professedly augments the difficulty of obtaining subsistence in a dense papula tion, very soon rendered the additional increase a pro gressive one, with the starting point and every suc cessive step of the advance indelibly marked and con spicuously visible. We want nothing to complete the history of the permanently indigent, who, for the last few months, have painfully arrested public attention. The comparatively few who are to be found while trade was less restricted, and bread to be had at its value, were easily disposed of under the poor-laws ; but after the tax upon bread they became too legion ary to be manageable on the ancient principles of re lieving poverty, and a new system of poor-laws be came indispensable. Still the class of permanently indigent continued to increase ; it had, indeed, become so large almost immediately after the imposition of the bread-tax, as to demand extraordinary measures of relief. They perished in the fields, ditches, and lanes of the country, and the streets of large towns, under the accumulated miseries of hunger and expo sure to inclement weather. The enactment of the corn-laws was almost immediately followed by the establishment in London and Liverpool of asylums for the reception of houseless wanderers, of which the expenses were defrayed by private subscriptions. From the books of one of these poor-houses extraor dinary, it appears that the vast mass of destitute peo ple received into them are artisans and agricultural labourers belonging to distant parishes. These are the classes who resort to the larger towns on the fail ure of the means of subsistence at their usual places of abode, and the reason is obvious : they naturally expect to find employment where numbers are con gregated, and relief where wealth most abounds. They do not expect to be fed and lodged gratuitously; they migrate in search of work, and, failing in that, are plunged into misery and destitution in the very midst of opulence and luxury. At last, these poor wretches came between the wind and the nobility, and "in the nostril smelled horrible." A few months back the Tines awakened a univer sal sensation, too painful ever to be forgotten, by an nouncing in a powerful article, that it appeared " from the report of the proceedings at Marlborough... street Police-office, that there is an average number of fifty human beings, of all ages, who huddle toge ther in the parks every night, having no other shelter than what is supplied by the trees and hollows of the embankments." This was in October, and in the fol lowing month the number of these destitute people in the streets of London alone, had so prodigiously increased, that the asylums for the houseless poor were opened several weeks before their wonted time, and, indeed, in contravention to a standing rule of the com mittee. A curious instance of the faculty possessed by sonic ; philosophers, of erecting theories in opposition to fact, and of employing the evidence for the existence of at certain state of things to establish the contrary, has just been furnished by Mr. D. W. Harvey, in his "Report of the City Police Force, for the year 1843:" This gentleman finds that the number of persons charged with trivial offencei is very great, and largely on the increase ; a fact which he thinks " may be chiefly attributed to the inducements held out to the idle and dissipated to flock to London from re mote parts of the country, under a fallacious impres sion that food and lodging are easily and gratuitously to be obtained." Inducements of this kind cannot be held out undesignedly, and without an active exertion. The Commissioner of City Police should not make loose and general accusations ; but perhaps the Police Commissioner might bear in mind the design of Mr. Harvey to establish a little speculation in a cheap lodging-house for the almost destitute in the neigh bourhood of Brick-lane, which was abandoned in con sequence of the success of Lord Ranelagh and other benevolent gentlemen in founding a gratuitous asylum for the wholly destitute in Ogle-street. The Commissioner of the City Police now discovers what did not occur to Mr. Harvey, that there is an other evil attendant on inducing poor people to flock to London. In the report he condemns generally " the places now open for the relief of the houseless and indigent," an d o b serves that " there is something obviously vicious in the system, and extremely ha zardous to th e secur i ty of persons and property, which inundates our streets every morning with hundreds of persons, who prowl about in every form of affected distress, seeking and seizing whatever may come in their way." It does not occur to the Police Commissioner that the hundreds who inundate the streets in the morning, must also have inundated them during the preceding night, when property was less protected, had it not been for the shelter afforded them by the asylums ; and that had it not been for the allowance of food which they receive in them, the propensity to steal, which he assumes them to possess, would have been sharpened by extreme hunger. We do not profess to defend the system on which these charities are con ducted ; but we c anno t f orge t th a t th e starving have no other resource, and the houseless no other homes than are provided by them.
