Is it an open street 7—lt is a street out of Dale-street up into Tithebaru-street. A public street ?—Yes. And no person but those three persons and yourself were then passing at the time, and you state to the Cimmittee that you believe they did not see you?—l do not think they did. Do you believe they did see you, or do you believe they did not ?—I believe they did not. What time of day was it 7—Between twelve and one o'clock. Had you seen them standing talking there before?—No. Did you see them meet in the street 7—They were met toge ther when I saw them. You say you followed the gentleman ?—Yes, I did. How far?—Not above the length of this room. Where was it you caught hold of his coat?—Opposite Brett's public-house. How far is that from the place where you saw him ?—I think it is two doors. You told the gentleman you knew him 7—Yes, I did. When was the next time you saw him ?—I have seen him repeatedly. Did you ever follow him again ?—Yes, on the Saturday I did, I saw him at the Exchange, I enquired his name there of a gentleman, and he gave his name as Mr. Cotton : I do not know it was a gentleman that was talking to him, and when he went into the news'-room, I asked his name once; the gen tleman asked me what I wanted to know for? I said, I did not want any thing particular; I said, I thought he might be young Mr. Horsfall, and he said, no, it was not. How came you to tell my Learned Friend that you did not know his name 7-1 do not know his name. How came you not to tell my Learned Friend that you had heard his name ?—I did on the Saturday, but 1 do not know his name yet. How came you not to tell that gentleman that you had heard that his name was Cotton 7—lt might be a slip of the memory. Are you subject to slips of memory ?—No. You went up to that gentleman and caught hold of his coat? —Yes, I did. What made you catch hold of his coat ?"—Because I was vexed to see money pass away Jiom me to the other ! ! ! How did you know what it was for ?—I did not know what it was for, but I saw him decorated with ribbons, and I consi dered that it was bribery ! ! ! And so, because you saw one person put a sovereign into the hand of another, you thought yourself justified in followine this gentleman and'catching hold of. him by the coat 7—Yes, I did so. You had not heard what had passed between them?—No, only he said, " recollect you do not know me," clapping him on the shoulder, and like a seafaring-man said " no. ' You were anxious about finding out the bribery?—No, Il i was not. Then what made you go and catch hold of his coat?—Be cause I was vexed! What brought you here, exertion or anxiety?—A paper brought me here. Who did you tell first of this?—Some people in Castle street, and I heard no more about it till I was sent for by Mr. Thornley's committee. When did you tell that ?—On the Thursday afternoon. On what day was this?—On the Thursday, on the same day. Who was it you told it to ?—I do not know. Where was it ?—Opposite the. Change, in the crowd. Did you mention it publicly ?—I did Did you know any person there at the time ?—Yes, I knew a good many. Tell me one that you knew ?—There was one, but I do not know whether I mentioned it to him or not and his name was Hunter. The you do recollect the name of one person you told it to that night?—No, I cannot say that I did tell him, but that was the name of the person that came from Thoruely's com mittee to me. Then he was not one of the persons that you told in. the first instance T —N o! ! ! Now, 'can you tell me any person to whom you communi cated this on Thursday ?--Not by name. Did you know the name of one of the persons ?—I do not think 1 did. Were you acquainted with any person that you mentioned it to ?—I believe not! You said there was more than one sovereign ; how many were there ?—I cannot say, but there were four or five, I dare say. Did you tell the sovereigns as they passed from hand to hand, or did you see them in the hand ?—I saw them pass out of one hand into the other. How many of them ran down do you suppose ?—I cannot tell, but I am sure there were four or five. Will you swear there were not ten or twelve ?—I do not think there was. Did you hear the chink of. them?—l do not think I did. Did the man in the blue jacket say any thing?—The man in the blue coat thanked him, he said, " no, Sir," the other said, " recollect you do nut know me," " oh, no," he said, and thanked him. That was all that you heard ?—Yes. You said that when you asked this gentleman's name, they told you Cotton ?—Yes. Was it Cotton or Colton ?--Cotton. You are sure of that?—Yes. Re-Examined by Mr. Rushton. You said you did not know the gentleman's name, have you ever pointed him out to anybody as the person that came to demand the money since ?—I pointed him out this last week. To whom ?—To Mr. Oglethorpe. Have you any doubt whatever that the man you pointed out to Mr. Oglethorpe was the man that gave the money in Vernon Street ?—None at all. Committee.—W hat situation in life are you in ?—A tailor. Journeyman tailor ?—I work for Mr. Richardson, I don't work in the shop.

DEPRECIATION OF THE CURRENCY. TO THE EDITOR OF THE LIVERPOOL STANDARD. Stn,—We hear in all directions of the increasing pressure of taxation, the inability to bear it, and the necessity for a change of system; how far these representations may be well founded, it is not for me to attempt to ascertain, if relief can be given, wheie the necessity for it . may exist, it is to be expected that Parlia ment will endeavour to afford it, but this can only be done with a due regard to the claims of justice and the maintenance of solemn public engagements. I am led to make these remarks by what has litely passed hi Parliament, on the subject of a chhnge in our monetary system, and under this expression, the depreciation of the currency has been proposed and supported. Those who do so have said, that Peel's Bill, which was - passed in 1819, and that fixed the period for resuming cash payments by the standard that existed in 1797, -when the Bank Restriction Bill was passed, was alike dis. honest and unjust in principle, as it required the payment of debts in gold which had been contracted in paper currency, and I learn by a leading article in the last STANDARD, that you are the advocate of these doctrines; there you loudly complain that no sympathy was evinced for the debtor, when he was robbed by this bill in 1819. It is not my intention to detail the particulars of the evils which followed the measure of restriction in 1797: the mass of irresponsible , paper circulation to which it gave rise, with which the . 'country was inundated; the wild and unbounded specula... tions for which it supplied the means ; the ultimate destruction of confidence' which ensued ; the panics and convulsions in the mercantile and monied communities which it produced, and the ruin it entailed on thousands of its credulous victims ; these events must be too deeply impressed in the minds of the living survivors to render it necessary to do so : neither do I intend to enter the political arena, to discuss the wisdom or folly of the measures which caused the Bank Restriction Act to be'passed, in order to enable. the Government to provide means (in the precious metals) for subsidizing foreign states, granting foreign loans, and maintaining large fleets and armies in foreign coun tries, in the prosecution of the war in which we were then en gaged, but my object is to recal to the recollection of those who are disposed to support the doctrine of depreciation, that the Bank Restriction Act, whilst it protected that body from being called on to pay their notes in cash, also fi.ced a limit for the duration of that system, and a period when payments in cash of standard value were to be resumed in all cases. It must be kept in mind, that it was on the faith of this na- tional engagement the public and private creditors lent their money, and it was with a perfect knoWledge of it that all loans of both descriptions were contracted. When the borrowers consented to take their loans in paper currency, it was with the perfect knowledge, that if the bank restriction should have ter minated when they came to repay, that they must do so in cash of standard value : how then can they complain of injustice where these engagements still remain undischarged? It was to fulfil the stipulations.of the bank restriction bill, and. to uphold the good faith of the country, that Peel's act was passed in 1819; this was done after repeated postponements, in all of which the obligation to return to cash payments was fixed and declared; not to have resumed cash payments, when in the judgment of the legislature the country was in a state com petent to do so, after such previous pledges and solemn engage ments entered into with all creditors both public and private, would have been alike a violation of public faith and private honesty. It is, evident, then, that these engagements cannot be cancelled or altered without the consent of the lenders, and no: such consent has been given. It is to no purpose that men like Sir John Sinclair furnish the public with statements in figures to show the advantages which eventually arose to those who risked their capitals in loans during the war ; when these loans were made, the terms were commensurate with the risks the lenders had to run ; they had only half the bargain to make, the public the other ! Could money have been procured on better teems elsewhere, it would not have been taken from them—the terms and conditions were clear and defined, and all the creditors require is, that they shall be complied with; to this they have a clear and indisput able right, although doing so may be attended with either loss or inconvenience to their debtors.' That these engagements have turned out to be favourable to the lenders, they may be said to owe to good fortune. Let us suppose the battle of Waterloo to have been lost, and that the North of Europe, as well as the South, had in consequence again fallen under the power of France, at a time when every nerve we possessed had been strained to the utmost effort, every resource and means at the point of .exhaustion. And our utmost energies placed on the die, would not the risk of national bank ruptcy have become alarming, and the value of our public secu rifles have been sunk to a Very low ebb ? What then, in such case would have been the situation of the creditors of the State, and would they not have had to Struggle with ruiri.? Fortunately fur all,,that battle was gained ;• the power of France was hum bled, peace and confidence were restored, and to their fair and honest share of the fruits to which they have, contributed, and the redemption of the pledges given to them, the public credi tors are well entitled—to withhold or to diminish them, by de preciating the currency, would' b'e• to forfeit public faith and character. I shall not pursue this subject further at present, or proceed to show the powers that were' given to the lenders - to sell, - and transfer their debts ; and, that few,. if an Y of the original parties now remain creditors of the .State; as these securities are daily changing hands:the• present holders.would become the victims of injustice.—Yours, &c. 2ith April, 1833. MERCATOR. LIVERPOOL FEMLE.PENITENi'IARY: On Friday, the twenty-second annual meeting • of the subscribers and friends of this Institution, was held at.the Bible Society's room; in• Slater-street. The Rev.. HUGH RALPH, L. L. D. minister ofthe Scotch Church, in Oldham-street, was called to- the chair.—Mr. MICHAEL ASHTON, the secretary, read the Report. of the Commit tee," from which 'w make the following extracts: " By a reference to the-Treasurer's accounts, and comparing them with those of the preceding year. it will appear that the Institution has received a nett increase of new Subscriptions to the amount of about Eight Pounds; after deducting those lost by unavoidable circumstances, such as death, or removal from town, no instance of deficiency in this source of income having occurred from a want of esteem for the Charity, or of confidence either in the systein or its conductors. It will be gratifying also to o bserve that there is again an increase in the amount of work done by the Penitents during the past year, the total sum of £267 2s. 2d. on this account having been received by the Trea surer. Iu the item of Donations there is an increase of about £75, but this arises chiefly from contributions towards the build ing of the new• Probationary Ward, as will be noticed more par ticularly hereafter. Notwithstanding these encouraging Cir cumstances, the general state of ,the tinanaes shews that the re gular.expenditure of the houSe has exceeded the ordinary income by about One Hundred and Fifty Pounds, but the mere an nouncement of this; fact, will, it is hoped, be a fresh stimulus to renewed exertion on the part of the friends of the Institution, to e n deavour to raisethe'neceSsatY funds in order not only to main tam it in its present state aetliciency, but in that extended scale of utility which is now contemplated. The Ladies Committee. continue to deserve the most sincere thinks-of all the friends of. the Institution, foetbeir uuwekied DOMESTIC. COURT AND FASHIONABLE WORLD. The marriage of Thomas Henry Hope, esq. eldest son of J. T. Hope, esq. of Netley Hall, Shropshire, to Louisa Charlotte, eldest daughter of Colonel Francis Knyvett Leighton, of Quarry Prace, Shrewsbury, took place on 'Tuesday in that town, In which it has been the occasion of great rejoicing. An immense concourse of every rank assembled at St. Chad's Church, to witness the marriage ceremony, and to see the hymeneal pro- cession proceed to and return from the sacred edifice. The Countess Grey gave her first evening party for the sea son on Friday, at his Lordship's residence in Downing-street. The suite of orawing-rooms was brilliantly illuminated at ten o'clock, for the reception of one hundred distinguished fashion ables. As the party were about to break up, tidings reached them of the defeat.of the ministry on Sir William Ingiiby's motion respecting the malt duties. We hear that Lord Harborough has recently added consi derably to the beauty of his seat, Stapleford Park, near Melton, by increasing its boundaries and altering all the roads which lie within its precincts. He has constructed a cottage in the Tudor and Swiss styles at Leigh, which is a perfect bijou in its way, for the residence of the principal keeper. Mrs. Granby Caicraft, it is understood, still sojourns with him, for whose society he wou:d seem to have "abjured the world." The re port of his Lordship having taken the lead during the season at Melton, by, his sumiituous dinners, is perfectly groundless. A hostile meeting was likely to have taken place between Lord Althorp and INIr. M. Attwood, in consequence of the ob servations made by , Lord A. in his speech on the currency ques tion, and which Mr. Attwood conceived to be personal. On. Wednesday Mr. H. Ross, M.P. waited on Lord Althorp, on the part of Nlr. Attwood, to demand an explanation; but we are happy to say that Mr. Ross and Mr. C. Wood, the friend of Lord Althorp, settled the matter to the satisfaction of both par ties.—Naval and Military Gazette. Sir E. Eardly Wilmot, Bart. M.P. has transmitted a dona tion of £lO,/ towards the relief of the distressed weavers in the neighbourhood of Foleshill, near Coventry, by which liberal contribution assistance, principally in articles of wearing ap parel, sheets, blankets, &c. has been afforded to upwards of three hundred and fifty families. DE.FINITION OF A WHlG.—Whigs are despots in Ireland, de magogues at Bristol, unionists at Birmingham, mill-tyrants at Leeds, Radicals at Coventry, and shuffiers all over the world. FECUNDITY OF SHEF.:P.—A fell ewe belonging to Mr. Doug lass, farmer, Low Moss, near Broughton-in-Furness has yeaned no less than seven lambs since the spring of Is3l. Another, the' property of Mr. Anthony Tyson, Wall End, near Broughton, yeaned a fine lamb on Saturday the 6th ult., and the Same ewe yeaned another on the Wednesday following, all of which are likely to do well. The Lion of-England seems to have been opiumized at Stara bout, and the crowings of the Gallic cock are less loud than when Roussin played the Gascon to the Muscovite Envoy. The 'Russian Eagle still towers in lofty superiority, clutching The Ottoman in its grasp. In plain language, Russian diplomatism has succeeded in the plans that Catherine, forty years ago, with a revenue of no more than six•millions sterling, laid down, and are now about to be perfected by Nicholas with wonderfully increased resources. The latest news from the East confirm the intelligence of the Sultan's acquiescence to the Empefer's wishes, but bring no news of importance touching the settle ment of the war with the Egyptian Viceroy.—Age. "MAURITIUS, JAN. 31.—"1 have just time to add that; his Majesty's ship Trinculo, arrived to-day with the new Governor, 'sailed Nov. 12, from Plymouth; she brings intelligence of Mr. Jeremie having- -sailed in the Jupiter of &t guns, accompanied by the 9th regiment; this news has thrown the whole town into the greatest confusion and excitement—the Governor will laud this afternoon. and I trust it will soon appear that the ordershe has brought with him do not confirm the opinion the inhabitants seem Co have taken, namely, that the Government at home is determined to carry all their measures by the bayonet; I dare hardly think what will be the consequence of this news. Unless some explanation of the orders which the Governor has brought with him be not imineciately given to the inh : :l - .itants, all con fidence will be at an end; there will be no lwainess doing, and should not be surprised to see them all shot their shops, dud again adopt the system of passive resistance',' endeavours to promote its welfare. To them it belongs to at tend internal Management of the House, to direct provi sionally the admissions and dismissals of the Penitents, to afford their counsel and assistance in the duties devolving upon the Ma tron and her assistants, (whose judgment and assiduity-continue to deserve the marked approbation of the Committee) and to at tend to the general supervision of the domestic economy of the establishment. These services continue to be rendered with their usual success and efficiency. As to the state of the House during the year, the Committee have to remark with satisfaction that the health of the inmates has been very good. Seventeen of the Penitents have been restored this year tc their reconciled friends, or have been placed out in respectable families as ser vants, and many pleasing accounts are received almost monthly of the correct conduct, and grateful thanksgivings of those who have been in former years reclaimed by this merciful institution.. The present inmates, especially those who have been admitted from the Probationary "Ward to the full privilee'es of the house, are, in general, conducting themselves with that propriety and decorum which give the surest pledge of the reality of their penitence. " To the paramount importance of Religious Instruction, your'. Committee have been deeply 'attentive, and they feel that the institution stands indebted (under God) for the most interesting and important moral results, to the pious labours of the different ministers who have so kindly afforded their valuable labours in this hallowed sphere of usefulness." It further appeared from the report, that in the course of the last summer, .the Committee had felt themselves under the necessity; from the increased number of cases, of meeting several applications for admission with a pain ful refusal, or at least by an indefinite postponement. It was therefore determined to enlarge the Probationary Ward, (then accommodating twelve at the utmost) so as to receive thirty-five inmates, or even forty, in case of need. The work was accordingly undertaken -and has been just finished. In effecting this improvement, the whole available fiinds were expended, besides an addi tional sum of about £2OO. It was very desirable to ob tain donations for the liquidation of this sum, as well as for the increased yearly expenditure, estimated at £l5O additional at least. The number at present in the House was 43, 30 of whom were fully admitted, and 13 were on probation. The average number in the House du ring the past year, had been 49. The total number ad mitted since the first establishment of the Institution, had been 529, of whom 189 had been restored to ,their friends or placed in-service. The first resolution, for the printing of the report, was moved by Mr. CROOK, and was seconded by Mr. ADAM HODGSON, who advocated the interests of the charity with his accustomed eloquence. He depicted the vast amount of physical suffering and moral degradation from which this institution relieved its objects, and contrasted their forlorn and outcast condition with ie amount of happiness which they might have enjoyed and conferred had they never wandered from the path of virtue. He called upon the meeting to reflect before they undertook the responsi bility, by withholding the necessary funds, of' refusing admission to any penitent, and sending her back to the haunts of vice. He hoped no applicant would ever here after be repulsed from the door of that institution. Mr. ASIITON then read several interesting letters from former inmates of the house, as well as from their parents and relations. These were filled with expressions of the warmest gratitude for the deliverance which they had obtained from vice and misery. The Rev. GEORGE HIGIIFIELD warmly advocated the interests of the charity, and observed that most of those whom it was the object of this institution to reclaiin bad been grossly neglected in their early life.—Mr. Jon also spoke feelingly in behalf of the charity. Mr. ASIITON having moved a vote of thanks to the-Rev. Chairman, Dr. RALPH acknowledged the honour, • apd observed that it was with great pleasure he devoted a por tion of his leisure time to the promotion of the interests of this institution. Ministers in their visits to these estab lishments derived more benefit than they communicated. He bore testimony to the attention to religious things bestowed by the inmates of this House of Refuge, and stated his belief that no institution in the town was so eft, ciently superintended.'
