THE NORTHERN TIMES. LIVERPOOL, WEDNESDAY, DECEMBER 9, 1857. MONETARY AND COMMERCIAL. LIVERPOOL, Tuesday Evening. There is not much business doing in our Cotton Market, the sales to-day being confined to 2,000 bales, and prices may be said to be the turn in buyers favour. The Liverpool Share Market has been inactive and fiat all day, and closes et lower prices. The day's transactions were-Blackburn, 9 1-16, 91 ; Caledonian, 38*, 331; Great Western, 501 ; Lancashire and Yorkshire, 91, 908; London and North Western, 941. 931, 94/, 91, 944-; Midland, 858, 851 ; Dovers, 191, 19 3-16; Grand Trunk of Canada, 9 11-16, 01; Dutch, Rhenish, 51d ; Great Western of Canada, 181.

This had a depressing influence on the market, and the de mand for Money continues active, without any decrease in the rate of discount. Messrs. T. and H. Littledale, in their circular for the East Indies, thus alludes to the present state of the Money Market :- Money has remained unprecedentedly high upon the best securities, and the numerous failures which have occurred have affected credit so generally that the money dealers have been at a loss to discriminate the securities offered, which has increased the difficulty in discounting, to an extent scarcely ever before experienced. At the date of our last circular, 7th Nov., the minimum baiik rate was nine per cent; on the 9th November it was advanced to ten per cent ; this praying inadequate, they had again, as in 1847, to make application to Government for a suspension of the Bank Act. Unlike 1847, how ever, the fact of the authority having been granted was not sufficient-the demand absorbing nearly £2,000,000 out of the authorised unlimited issue, and although this has since been cancelled, the directors have not felt justified in relaxing the rate. Messrs. Brown, Hunter, and Co., remark :- Since the suspension of the Bank Act there has been a considerable influx of bullion into the coffers of the Bank I of England, and the additional amount of notes which the directors were authorised to issue, to protect that establish. meat, has been nearly regained by the increase in its banking balan-e, which, however, is not suffeiently strengthened to admit yet of the issue department being placed within the requirements of the Act. The improving position of the bank, however, has, to some extent allayed the anxiety which previously existed; yet the great evil of our present monetary system-the exacting ofa ruinous charge for discount facilities-still continues, Ind until some reduction from the present rate of 10 pr cent, is made, it is in vain to look for any relief. Tie opinion that our monetary code requires immediate reision, it is satisfactory to observe, is becoming more general, which, it is to be hoped, will exercise an important influence on the deliberations and report of the commttee whom Government purpose to re-appoint for the instigation of the subject, and its bearing upon the latecrisis. Our Produce Markets still continue in a very demessed state, and sales are only effected at low prices. Tae bullion in the Bank of England has increased 872,37/ dazing the past fortnight. There was much firmness in the Funds this morning, and in the forenoon prices were quoted about 4 per cent higher than at four o'clock yes- I terday. Consols for the Bth January wore first marked 921 and 924, and are my quoted 921 " buyers." For Money the preseit price is 911 " buyers." The Three per Cent Reduced have been dealt in at 90 to 901; the New Three per Cents, at 94 to 901 ; Bank Stock, at 217 to 218 ; India Stock, at 219 ; Exchequer Bills, at 3s dis to Is prem, being firmer; and India Bonds at 283 to 26s dis. At the close of the Market Consols for Money were quoted at 91/ to 911. and the Account 92# to 924 ; and after official hours they were quoted at the same figure The London Railway Share Market has been dull and inactive during the day, closing at its worst. The following were du closing quo. tations :-Calodonians, 77, 78; Zaetern Coun ties, 541, 55 ; East Lancashire, 88, 90; Great Northern, 94. 95 ; Do.

The Circular of Masts. Littledale says :- The past month has ben one of greit trial to all engaged in commerce, from the icreased difficulty in effecting sales of any kind of produc, and the almost impossibility of obtaining monetary feilities adequate to requirements, indeed, when sales hie been made, the promptitude with which payments are net has become frequently matter of convenience to the buer. anything but a certainty to the seller. The crisis in ff.irs here has now, we hope, been passed, and engagemnts must be so rapidly narrowing as to give to those who save withstood the storm, the expec tation of a steady tale henceforth. In America they are ' easier in money. Te most severe pressure at present is in Hamburg, whereall business is suspended; they have probably felt the fte. force with even greater intensity than in this country or imerica. So far, France has escaped, and judging from to ffirther reduction in the rate made by their Bank on Satrday last, may be in a stronger position than previously suposed. Referring to the state of the Wool Market, Messrs Brown Hlmer, and Co.. say :- Oar Wool Maret has been extremely quiet during the past fortnight, ad scarcely any transactions of importance have taken place; prices are in a great measure nominal. The London ales of Colonial terminated on the 12th instant. The ttal quantity brought forward amountel to 44,853 bales. The, sales' commenced under the most discouraging ocumstances, and it was not to be expected that prices cord be sustained, under the pressure of the Money Marlet, and the unsatistactOry state of business in the manufetnring districts. Although the attendance of buyers we most numerous, the biddings were very languid, and it became necessary to withdraw a large quantity. At average decline of about 31 per poun i may be quoted a Australian, although the fine qualities may onty be cosiderel 2d. per lb lower, but inferior and ill conditioner' fully 41. per lb. The fall in Cape Wools was more serio.s, ranging from 23. to sd. per lb.- The sales of East India amounting to 3,000 bales commerce there to day.

THE PRESTON POISONING AND FORGERY CASE. COMMITTAL OF MR. MONK ON THE CHARGE OF FORGERY. CONFESSION OF THE PERSON WHO MADE ?HE WILL, FROM OUR OWN RZFORTEIt, PRESTON, TWESDAY EVENING. The adjourned examination of Mr. Monk, surgeon, of this town, and one of the aldermen of this borough„ on the charge of uttering a forged document, purporting to be the will of the late Sergeant Turner, took place at the Town hail, Preston, this day (Tuesday). The court was densely crowded, and there was an immense assemblage about the hall during the whole period of the hearing. The excite ment in the town in connection with this painful ease had, if possible, increased since the apprehension of the accused. This, as might be expected, was much augmented on its becoming known a short time before the commencement of the proceedings that the person who had made the will, at the imt . gation of Mr. Monk, had not only been traced, but that she had actually confessed to being the instrument of the forgery. Mr. Monk arrived at the Town-hall, from the House of Correction, in the custody of one of the turnkeys, some time before the commencement of the proceedings. He appeared very much depressed, evidently feeling most acutely the sad reverse of his position ; a culprit before the bench whereon he had so often sat, and tried by gentlemen with whom he had been so long associated in the administration of justice. It had been arranged that no summonses should be issued for to-day, and the other business of the court was diepatehed in less than ten minutes, so as to begin as early as possible with this all-absorbing case. The magistrates on the Bench were Mr. W. Ains worth, in the chair, Mr. J. Humber (Mayor), Mr. W. Humber, Mr. Birley, Mr. Spencer, Mr. Sidgreaves, Mr. Peter Catterall, Mr. Paul Catterall, and Mr. Walmsley. •• As before, Mr. Segar, instructed by Messrs R. and W. Ashcroft. appeared for the prosecution, and Mr. R A. Cross, M.P., instructed by Mr. Blackhurst, defended ti e prisoner. On the case being called, Mr. Seger announced that his first witness would be Mrs Pipe. wife of Mr. Pipe, hair-dresser, Fishergate, in this town. It being known that this was the person who had admitted to writing the document, her appearance in the court created quite a- sensation. She appeared to be suffering terribly, both mentally and bodily, and as she was being led to the witness-box she swooned, and fell in court, but was caught by some of the bystanders. She was taken into the ante-room of the hall, and restoratives administered to her, but -as she showed no prospect of immediate recovery, Mr Seger proposed to go on with the next witness, Mr. John Fisher. During the examination of Mr. Fisher, Mrs. Pipe was I nught into court again, and provided with a seat on the magistrates' bench, but she had speedily to be removed therefrom on account of continued illness. The following is the evidence given in the case:— Mr. Fisher was then examined, - and he stated, in cos tinuaion of his previous examination : The prisoner, Mr. Monk, called on me at the Lancaster Bank on Saturday, the 26th September, a little after ten in the morning, as nearly as I can remember. He produced- a paper about the size of a sheet of letter paper. Mr. Cross : This is the; question objected to at the last' hearing, in order that search might be -made for that paper. The gentleman who instructs me tells me it can't be found. Mr. Fisher's examination continued: The paper purported to be a deposition by Edward Turner of his property in favour of his " dear friend Thomas Monk." No mention was made of any other person in the paper, except a deposition of fiva shillings a week to the housekeeper. The document itself appeare 1 to be in the handwriting of Mr. Monk, but I can't swear positively. It purported to be signed by Edward Turner. I can't say anything more particularly about it. I believe there was no witness to it. I think he did not deliver the paper into my hands. He showed it to me. He said Mr. Turner was dead, and that he (Mr. Monk) wanted some motley to pay the wages. He retained the document, and took it away With him. In answer to his application, I said we could give no money on a document like that, and that we never paid money except on the presentation of probate or letters of ad ministration. I have got the cheque signed by Mr. Monk, on which I paid the monefin October. I produce the cheque. The Clerk read the draft, as follows : Preston, October 2, 1857. Draw from the Lane's er Banking Co npany the sum of Ga. Bd., to be placed to the account of Edward Turner. THOyAkEi MONK The Clerk : In the margin there were the figures 56 15 3. Mr. Fisher (I,)y Mr. Cross) : That is the same interview I referred to on my examination on Friday last. Ann Eden Pipe was then called, and was brought on the bench from the committee-room. Having been accommo dated with a seat, (lvlr. Peter Catterall's) and sworn, she sta'ed : lam the wife of John Willgrease Pipe, who is a hairdresser and perfumer, in Fishergate, I have resided in Preston between five and six years, I know the prisoner Mr. Thomas Monk Since I have been in Preston he has been the medical attendant of my family. I re member having occasion to call at his surgery one morning to consult him. It is between two and three months ago, and between nine and ten o'clock in the morning. I don't remember the day of the week. I saw Mr. Monk that morning at his surgery. He appeared to be preparing to go out. After some hesitation, he asked me if I had time to copy a paper for him. He produced a written paper, and also a blank sheet of pap er t o sake a copy upon. He gave me directions that I was to wMte it large ; I think he said like a man I copied the document ho gave me. Mr. Seger : Where ? Witness (weeping) : I copied is in Mr. Monk's surgery Mr. Monk was up and down stairs in his surgery while I wag copying it. I can't say posi tively in whose handwriting the copy was. Mr. Seger : Can you form a belief whose handwriting the copy was ? Mr. Cross objected. The witness having said she could not say in whose handwriting it was, the question should not be put. __ _ Mr. Seger did not press the question. Mr. Cross : My friend means to ak whether it is in the prisoner's handwriting. Before that question can ba asked, he must know whether the witness knows the prisoner's handwriting. Mr. Seger handed the will to witness. The Clerl was 'wire instructed to make a memorandum as follows : [The document produced by Mr. Winder on Friday last, was here put into the hands of the witness, and she said, " This is the copy I made,"l Witness : The whole document is in my handwriting, with the exception of the words, " Joseph Wilkinson, Preston." and " RI ward Turner." Mr. Began : There is the word " day" that seems to have been put into the body of the will after the document was made. Is that in your handwriting? Witness: Yes. Mr Seger : Was that omission pointed out to you ? Witness : I don't remember ; but I think I discovered it. I made the bracket to the attestation. ' I left the dpcument with Mr. Monk when I had coped it. I can't say whether the name "James Holden" was on the docu ment from which I copied. It was either on, or I was directed to put it on by Mr. Monk. At that time I had never before heard of Edward Turner. I did not see Edward Turner sign this document. When I left it with Mr. Monk, there was no writing on it but my own. Mr. Cross declined to ask the witness any question. On the evidence being read over to the witness, she said she did not know.whether or not it was to consult Mr. Monk that she called upon him. The words were, there fore, struck out of her evidence.

ROTS are CLOTHED from the Ages of Six to Twenty Year ample case for commitment. He had a considerable body of evidence to produce if the magistrates thought it necessary. It would be justice to Mr. Monk that it should be produced now, or that he should have a copy of it before the trial ; bat it was quite needless to take full details of that evidence, if his friend on the other side would • take an undertaking that the prosecution would give him a copy of it, together with st'l other evidence that had already been laid before the court. ,Mr. Cross said he had watched this case very carefully for the accused from the first. It was a very painful case —painful as his friend Mr. Seger observed on Friday last, to all concerned—painful to Mr. Segar, painful to himself, painful to the accused, and, perhaps more than anyone else, to the Bench themselves. It was not his intention to take up more of the time of the Bench in commenting upon the evidence now, or in offering the evidence of any witnesses on behalf of the accused. Unless Mr. Monk could leave that court, not only discharged, but restored to' his own position, it was nothing to him. However painful it might be to him to remain in custody until the trial at the assizes, on a charge of so grave a character, that was nothing to the graveness of the stake now at issue. He was advanced in years, and had risen to a high position in the town. He could only have one object, that of clearing his character, and that investigation he (Mr. Cress) believed would have to be made elsewhere. As the evidence stood at pre sent, he could hardly ask the Bench to discharge the prisoner —he was sure he could not ask them to discharge him as he (Mr. Monk) would wish. His character must be cleared elsewhere, and he (Mr. Cross) would not take up more of their time in making observations, or in opposing a commitment. There would be an oppor tunity when he (Mr. Monk) could be heard in his defence, when, he trusted, he would be able to clear his character of this grave and serious charge. When he (Mr. Cross) said that he did not intend to resist a commit ment, he trusted that that would not be taken as any admission of Mr. Monk's guilt, and he also trusted that every one who had heard the case, or had read about it, would withhold their judg men t an d suspend their opinion until the accused had had an ample opportunity of laying the facts before a competent tribunal. Mr Cross here sat down, but immediately rose again, and addressing the Bench, said : Allow me one moment. My friend said that a copy of the evidence would be given to us in full time. I trust we shall have it in time before the trial. I will accept Mr. Segar's promise on the point as an undertaking. Mr. Ascroft said :1 undertake to produce all books and papers in due time. After a short consultation between Mr. Cross and the solicitor for the defence, Mr. Cross again rose, and, addressing Mr. Ascroft, said : Yoa have his (Mr, Monk's) day bosik and papers. You do not want them? Mr. Ascroft : Yes, I think we do. Yon may have access to them at my office, but we cannot give them up. The Msgistrates' Clerk (Mr. Dodd) then began to read over the depositions, when Mr. Cross said : As a matter of form .I renew my appli cation for bail. I cannot urge anything further than I did on Friday last, and perhaps the decision of the Bench may be the same. I make the application as a matter of form. _ The Bench, after a few minutes' consultation, said they were sorry to intimate that they must confirm the decision to which they had come to on Friday last. The Clerk then proceeded with the evidence. On going through Mr. Fisher's testimony, he was instructed by the Bench to make this memorandum : " The prisoner not producing the document referred to in the notice to produce it, served on him by Mr. Gibbons, the examination of this witness was proceeded with " At the conclusion of the reading of the depositions, The Bench then addressed the prisons; asking him, in the usual form, if he had anything to say to the charge preferred against him. Mr. Blacihurst (in the absence of Mr. Cross, who had left the court,) stated that Mr. Monk would reserve any remarks he might have to make until the assizes. The question was then put formally to the prisoner, who declined to say anything. Mr. Ascroft said there were a number of witnesses in attendance on both days of the examination, and he had an application to make for their expenses. He_ would Submit the names of the witnesses to Mr. Dodd. Mr. Peter Catterall (on the Bench) : What authority have we to make an order for the payment of witnesses who have not been sworn ? Mr. Aseroft said he must call them anti have them sworn then. He would simply call the parties, and ask them if they had attended in this case, and the magistrates could take the matter into consideration afterwards. Mr. Catterall (to Mr. Ascroft) : You must certify that they are proper witness. Mr. Ascroft : Oh ! yes ; I might put in an affidavit before you afterwards. I think lam bound to make the application afterwards. . _ "kr. Catterall: Certainly, and if we have power we shall order the payment of those expenses. Mr. Ascroft then called the following witnesses, some of whom. had been in attendance on that day alone, and others on both the days of hearing :--Henry Adler, Hat ton Garden, London, engraver; James Reay, Commerce Court, Liverpool,: secretary to the Liverpool Guardian Society; Henry Heap, 43, High street, Preston, an appren tice as a reedmaker to the late Sergeant Turner; Hy. Wil kinson, 132, Laneaßter-road, Preston, manufacturer; John Oddie, Fulwood Barracks, private 6th Regiment of Foot ; Thomas Baines (called, but 'did not, appear); Alice Chad wick, housekeeper to the deceased, Walker-street, Pres ton, widow; Anne Appleby, 205, St. Paul's-road, Preston, married woman; Margaret Gulland, 203, St. Paul's-road.

The whole of the witnesses present were bound over in their own recognisances to give evidence at the ttial.; Mr. Pipe gave bail in the sum of £2OO for the appearance of his wife at the assizes. Mr. Pipe wished it to be distinctly understood that he was quite ignorant of the affair. The Bench said they had nothing to do with that. Mr. Monk was then committed to take his trial at the next Lancaster assizes. BANKRUPTS. By British and Irish 7 1Iagnetie Telegraph. Thomas Bull, St. Mary Axe, vinegar merchant.

A SURGEON AT HALIFAX CHARGED WITH A dRICACR OF THE GAME Laws —On Saturday last, at the Vest Riding magistrates' court, Halifax, Mr. Thomas nobles Uresswell, a surgeon of extensive practice, was char;ed with tres passing in pursuit of game, o❑ the 181 h lA., in Pudding Park Wood, the game preserve of J. P Edwards, Esq. The defendant, who is certificated, was sooting upon land of Smith Ha 1, Esq., adjoining those of tie prosecutor, on the day in question. A pheasant h e shot fell into Mr. Edwards's preserves, and he went to Otch it. The game- , keeper disputed his right to the bin ; but at length the defendant got away with it, leaving Is tail in the hands of the 'keeper. Ultimately the case Was dismissed, as the magistrates were equally divided, uree being in favour of a conviction, and three against.

The Brigkton Railway Company's Traffic Return shows an increase of about 1,3001. A large amount of Canadian Government Six per Cent. Bonds, stated "at about half a million, has been recently placed on the market, in influential hands, at 103. A rumour which 'prevailed in New York of the suspension of Messrs. Richard Jevin and Co., of that city, is contradicted. The following is an extract of a letter from the firm, dated New York Nov. 24:—" The report of our suspension is entirely unfounded. We have no engagements on this side which we are not prepared to cash on presentation ; and, in fact, no responsibilities of any importance, or . cauSing us any uneasiness." The steamer Ripon has brought 34,585/. in specie from Alexandria. The Ottoman Bank have received a further sum of 18,0001. in gold from the East. The specie and bullion ex the steamer Orinoco were delivered yesterday. About 80,0001 of the silver brought by this vessel has. already been purchased for transmission to Hamburg by the steamer which will sail to-morrow. A good portion of this 80,0001 consists of Mexican dollars, any thing in the shape of silver being eagerly absorbed on Hamburg account. As the buyers for . Ham burgh offer a considerably advanced price for silver, quantities of the metal are now delivered thither which would otherwise have been des patched to the East. Gold continues to flow freely into the Bank. The sum purchased yesterday was about 100,0001, derived from a variety of foreign quarters. About 40,0001. in sovereigns, ex the sfeamer Adriatic, from New York, has' also been sent into the Bank. We understand that some of the boxes of soverei g ns lately transmitted f rom thi s s id e t o New York have come back from that port without having been ,even opened. It is stated in advices from Paris, that the stock of bullion in the Bank of France has risen to about 9,000,0001. sterling, and that the bills discounted have decreased 1.,880,000/. since the last return. At Vienna, on Saturday, the Bourse was rather flatter. Some persons fear that the panic in Ham burg will re-actupon some of the southern. German markets, which, in their turn, would affect Paris. The monthly settlement in Consols has been accompanied by the failure of two members of the Stock . Exchange, but in neither case was the amount important. Messrs Krell and Cohn. merchants, of Bread street„have been compelled to suspend payment, but the liabilities in this case are believed to be The failure is announced of Messrs. Albert W. Pelly and Co., a highly respectable house engaged in the trade with the North of Europe. Their embarrassments excite sympathy, the stop page being immediately occabioned by their having received remittances on Messrs. Sewellp and Neck, who stopped on Saturday. It is thought that the liabilities will reach about 170,0001., but as there was a large amount of capital in the firm, a very satisfactory liquidation is hoped for. At a meeting, held yesterday, of the creditors of Mr. W. Caudery, who suspended payment some weeks ags, the statement of Messrs. Turquand, Youngs, and Co., showed a surplus, and it is hoped that under inspeotior, which was unanimously agreed to, the estate will yield considerably more than 20s. in the pound. The total liabilities are under 30,000/. LIVERPOOL COTTON MARKET.—DEc. 8. The Cotton market continues very quiet, and prices are rather easier.
