December 4,1357. POLICE INTELLIGENCE-SATURDAY, LIVERPOOL. BEFORE MR. MANSFIELD. Two girls, named Mary Casey, and Catherine Melia, were charged with having stolen twenty yards of printed cotton, from the shop door of Mr. Rogers, St. Jam, s'-place. The cate was clearly proved, and the prisoners were re manded, with the view of sensing them to a reformatory, as they are under fifteen years of age. A LI `TLE DISTILLER ! —Maria Martin, a girl about twelve years of age, was brought up by Officer 201, who said he was informed that morning that there was a private distillery going on at 22, Grenville -street, and on going there, he found the prisoner, and on searching the place, he got a quantity of wash and pot ale, ready to make whiskey with. Mr. John French, an excise officer attended to prosecute, and Mr. Mansfield asked him what was the good of having arrested the little girl ? and he replied, in order to find cut the real party who owned the distillery. The child said her father worked at St. Helen's, and she lived with her mother, in Brownlow-hill ; a person named Wakefield, who lived in Great Newton-street, brought her and her mother to sleep in the house, and her mother went out early in the morn ing, and then the policeman came and took her, and that was all she know about it. She was discharged. CILVIGE GAROTTE ROBBERY.—Three huge looking ruffians, named John Pritchard, Frederick Metcalf, and James Hyams, wore brought up by police officer 738, and another officer, charged under the following circum stances:—The officers noticed the prisoners going along Canterbury -street the previous night, and soon after they passed, a cry was heard, and some one called out " you have robbed me." They (the officers) ran towards the place, and met a man, who said he was a cattle-dealer, and that three men had robbed him. The police ran after the prisoners, and arrested them after a struggle, and then returned, but the cattle dealer was gone, and they could not find him after. The evidence not being sufficient to detain the prisoners, they were discharged. STABBING.—Jobs Manning, a sailor, was charged with having stabbed Alexander Robertson, another sailor. The parties met in Denison-street, where they had some dis pute, when the prisoner took out his knife and stabbed the other in three places in the back. A surgeon proved that there were three incised wounds in the man's back, one of them over the kidney, deep and rather dangerous. The prisoner Was sent for trial. _ James Mu.phy was sent for trial for having attempted to cheat a Sergeant of the Lancashire Militia out of £1 is. by false representations. BEFORE MESSRS. J. H. TURNER AND W. EARLE. J. Allen, and six other sailors, late of the ship, Prince of the Seas, sinTm ned John Alexander Wilson, the master of the vessel, for various sums of alleged balances of wages Mr. Campbell was for the complainants, and Mr. Conway, barrister, for the defendant. The complainants shipped at Chinches Islands as able seamen, but the defendant alleged that they were only ordinary seamen, and refused to pay them wages except as such. Tais was the matter in dispute. The affair was left to Captain Ainley, of the Sailors' Home, to adjust between the parties. MONETARY REFORM. TO THE EDITOR OF THE NORTHERN TIMES. Sir,—The monetary system briefly described in the subjoined propositions, has been designed with the view of effecting a comprom;se between the ad vocates of .the existing system and the more moderate school of monetary reformers. If you think the proposition worthy thb attention of your readers, you will perhaps oblige by inserting them. The reader will observe that the 9th and 10th propositions involve the necessity for a slight decreo of cooeesson from the advocates of the existing system, but it will be obvious that cue inconvenience which those clauses may possibly occasion to holders of notes, will be far more than counterbalanced by the conveniencies which the Bth proposition will confer upon thorn. It is perhaps necessary to explain, that what is meant by the words "full current rate of interest," as used in the oth and Bth propositions, is such a rate of interest as shall mantain the notes of the. Issue Office always at, or slightly above, par with the gold pound or sovereign.—Yours, &c., J. B. General Propositions. Ist. Thai a suitable Bank or Office, to be called " The National Issue Office," shall be opened in London, un'er the auspices of Govern►nent, and that such cffice shall be proviJed with appliances for printing and issuing currency notes, and for keeping 'aortic accounts with the public. 2nd. That this Office shall be authorised to issue cur rency notes to all who comply with the conditions herein provided. 3rd. That the notes so issued shall bear the form and be subject to the conditions herein provided. 4th. That the profits realised on the notes during circulation, shall be paid into the National Exchequer, as being part of the National Revenue. Propositions relating to Borrowers . btb. That borrowers shall provide arop!e Government securities for the amounts borrowed. 6th. That borrower 3 shall pay the full current rate of aterest on the amounts borrowed. Propositions relating to Note Mklets 7th. That the notes of the National Issue Office shall be legal tender for the payment of debts at all places except the National Issue Office and the Mint. Bth. That holders of the notes of the National Issue Office shall have the right of depositing them at the said office, at call, and of receiving on the amount deposited the fall current rate of interest from the day of deposit to the day of recall. 9th. That the notes of the office shall be payable in gold, on the demand of any party who miy have given three months notice of his intention to make such demand. 10J). That no charge shall be made for registering notices for the payment of notes in geld; but that parties regis tering such notices shall, on the expiration thereof, be required to provide the amount of notes named in the notice, and to take an equal amount of gold in exchange for them. The form of the proposed new Currency Note. 11. That the notes of the National Issuo Office shall be .n the following form : National Issue Offiee, London. I hereby certify that this noto represents a debt of Five Pounds sterling, for which the National Line Office is responsible to the holder of the note ; the said debt being subject to the conditions advertised by this Office. For the British Government, A.B.C. THE PASSING OF RECRUITS. TO TILE EDITOR OP THE NORTHERN TIMES. Sir,—Through the medium of the Press, the poor man has the only chance of obtaining satisfaction, for oppression received at the hands of those in authority. I, there fore, relying on your well known liberality, and defence of the poor hard-working man, respectfully solicit your rid, and thus publicly make known a very unjust transaction in regard to the doctor—Dr. Denny—in passing recruits in this town. Thomas Neil, residing at No. 2, Blundell street, enlisted en the 26th of November last, and went to pass the doctor—Dr. Denny. The parents of this lad can certify that he has been nearly blind from his infancy, and they, therefore, could not put him to any trade to aid him in earning his living, and c.snsequently be could not he fit for her Majesty's service, although he told the doctor at the time of his failing in sight, but the doctor told him he could see to shoot a black man. It is to bo hoped that the authority who has the appointment of medical men for such purposes, would appoint men of eminent abilities that would not pass persons totally unfit for service. Nor is this the worst part of the transaction. I have a large family of seven children, wife, and self, making, in all, nine to provide for, and my funds are very low ; I did not earn a halfpenny for the last three weeks, and was compelled to pay £1 3a. 6d. smart money" as they call it, through Dr. Denny. I have therefore the confidence in your kindness, to have the satisfaction of thus publicly making known this grievance, and, I may say, unjust robbery of a poor man's bard earnirgs. I hope yeii will excuse this long affirmation of so vile a wrong, and bAieve me,—Your most obedient servant, Liverpool, Dec., 4, 1857. TIMOTHY NEIL. A meeting was held on Wednesday, at Leeds, of teachers of commercial and other schools, at which resolutions were carried to co-operate with the University of Oxford, in carrying out its scheme of pupils' examination, and to endeavour to induce the university to hold a local exami nation for the West Riding at Leeds. NANA SAIIIB'S ADVICE TO Ills MEN.—A correspondent writes :—" Nana Sahib has again bolted ; his last advice to his men is rich :—' Keep out of the way of the Blue Caps (Madras Fusiliers), they hit without firing (in allusion to the long range of the Enfield rifles, the report of which was not often heard), and when the Highlanders get near any village, kill all the women, for these are the men who have been sent out by the Queen to avenge the deaths of their women and children, and that is the reason they go Itto action with kilts." MONETARY AND COMMERCIAL. LIVERPOOL, Saturday Evening. The Cotton Market was very quiet to-day at the low prices of yesterday. The sates are reported at 6,000 bales, including a few hundred on speculation and for export. In the Liverpool Share Market a moderate busi ness was transacted, and prices show an upward tendency.

The demand for Money has not been so active to-day, but the applications are sufficiently extensive to prevent any decline in the terms charged for the negociation of bills. The Bunkers' Circular of to-day says that there is an easier feeling pervading the large houses engaged in business, but the .10 per cent. rate of discount at :he Bank is throwing its deadening influence over all the retail depart ments of business in the home trade. The Market for the Public Funds and Securities opened to-day with a very buoyant feeling, and prices exhibited an upward tendency. Towards the after noon some large sales were forced on the Market, and rates declined, prices of Consols closing at 912 to pl 4, having touched 92. The new Three per Cents were done at 918 to 911 and Exchequer Bills at 4 dis. The following list shows the fluctuations in Consols during the past week :- Lowest Highest Closing prices. prices. prices, Monday Money 91g- 911 91' i l Account _92! 92 921 Tuesday Money ~ 914 914 911 Account . -921 921 92Z- Wednesday Money .... shut Account ....91 Thursday Money .... shut Account 91a Friday __Money .... shut - Account 92 911 Saturday Money shut Account ....918 92 911 There was not much doing in the London Rail way Share Market to-say, but prices were well supported, aided, in several instances, rather higher prices were paid.

Respecting the movements in Mines, the Mining Journal of to-day says :- This week has been particularly dull, the amount of business extremely limited, and, until after Christmas, it is thought we shall not have much improvement. Thera have been a few buyers in the market, especially for Basset, West Seton,_ West Caradon, Trelawney, Mary Anne, and a few others ; but as buyers expect in times like these to get everything a great bargain, the prices offered for shares in most eases have not been such as to tempt sellers, and, consequently, very little has been done. Copper has fallen lid per lb., but as the standard declined for many weeks previously, this may be considered more as consequent upon it than as denoting any further fall in the price of Ores. Tin is down again, and the Tin Mines generally must be seriously affected in their profi's Lead does not seem to have fallen so much in proportion to other metals. 91 91 -The Imports of Specie during the week are con siderably over one million, viz.:—By the Alhambra, from the Mediterranean, 10,2001; the Se/ ingapatarn, from Melbourne, 12,180 ounces gold, or 48,7201; the Ripon, from Alexandria, 34,5051; the Arabia, from America,2ol,o97l; the Dolphin, from Antwerp, 20 pkgs. bullion ; the Peninsula, from Gibraltar, 1 box of dollars; the Fyenoord, from Rotterdam, 1 ease of silver ; the Tamar, from Australia, , 305,7091; the Essex, from Melbourne, 105,255 oza. gold, or 421,0201; the Gambia, from Africa, 4.0001 in specie, and 2,000 ozs. gold, or 12,000/ ; the Planet, from liamburgh, 9 casks 7 pkgs. gold coin; the Baron Osy, from Antwerp, 22 cases 2 casks specie ; the Schiedam, from Schiedam, 4 sacks specie. The Exports are about a quarter of a million, viz : by the Alhambra for the Mediterranean, 10.3621; the Attrato for the West Indies, 37,6501; the John Bull for Hanaburgh,Bl,sool; the Countess Lonsdale for Hamburgh, 90,0001; the Canada fir America, 16,2701; the Avon for the Brazils, 500/; the Neptune for Hamburgh, 55,000/. The demand for silver is very active, in conse quence of the amounts required for Hambwgh as well as India. The Caledonian left to day for the former city, with 50,01104 and preparations being in progress for the shipments, by the steamer, on the 20th, to India, there is a good deal cf activity , in the market for this metal. The current quo tations for bullion are :—Bar gold, 773 9d per oz. standard; United States gold coin, 76s 2d per oz ; bar silver, 5s 28d per oz standard ; and .Mexican and South American dollars 53 04d per ounce. Fire failures have occurred in London during the past day or two, chiefly among them is an old and most respectable house, Messrs. Heine, Semon, and Co., largely engaged in the trade with the North of Gerniany, Moldavia, eze. Their liabilftias are supposed to amount to about 7i0.000/., but the firm, it is said, confidently boliew that every engage- ment will ultimately be mot in full, Wiley have THE NORTHERN TIMES.-LIVERPOOL, MONDAY, DECEMBER 14, 185. available assets to a considerable amount still in hand, but, in the midst of the uncertainty caused by the numberless stoppages on the Continent, it was considered prudent for the general interests of the creditors to suspend at once. Messrs. Weinholt, Wehner, and Co., a German house connected with the trade to the East Indies and Australia, have also stopped. Their liabilities range between £250,000 and £300,000, and the pros pects of the liquidation appear to be doubtful, since they depend on realizations from produce and collections from abroad, as well as upon the preceeds of bills on other failed houses. At the beginning of the year the firm had a considerable surplus. Messrs. T. H. Elmenborst and Co., Ger man merchants, trading principally to the North of Europe, have also been brought down. The firm have always occupied a good position, and there is a hope the difficulty may prove but temporary. They hold the paper of other suspended houses, and the immediate cause of their embarrasment has consisted in the failure of Messrs. Albert Pally and Co. The total amount of their liabilities has not transpired. The bills have also been returned of Messrs. Montoys, Saenz, and Co., an old Spanish firm of respectable standing as general merchants. The debts are believed to be very small, the house having been closing its transactions for some time past. To this list has to be added the stoppage of Mr. J. G. Ward (formerly Tisdall and Ward), who appears in the list of London bankers, but whose business was principally that of agent to cattle salesmen. The extent of his engagements has not been stated. The old-established firm known as Farley's Bank, Worcester, has also suspended payment. The effects of the failure, however, will not be attended by the wide-spread distress and suffering which has been caused by the stoppage of similar establishments elsewhere, inasmuch as the opera tions of the bank were on a very limited scare. It was started in 1794, and was authorised to issue notes to the amount of 15,6001. The actual issue, however, fell far short of this limitation. Accord- ing to the return in the London Gazette of the Ist December, inst , the average issue was only 4,8001. The liabilities of the bank are estimated at 120,0001., and the assets at 50,0001., leaving a deficiency of 70,0001. The number of creditors who will be effected by the failure is from 400 to 450. The stoppage has not been brought about by any direct operations of the monetary crisis. The bank has, in fact, died out. A branch of the same establish ment, carried on at Kidderminster, under the title of " Farley, Turner, and C 0.," stopped about a year ago. Several rumours of failures were circulated in London to-day, but they were believed to be without foundation. Only one small suspension occurred —viz., that of a small German house, with limited liabilities. At the meeting of the Royal Swedish Railway Company, held to day, there was a protracted discussion, in which the feeling of the shareholders was that the directors would act wisely in prose cuting their endeavour to effect a sale of the line to the Swedish Government for the amount of 400,000/. The board were empowered to proceed to the sale of the property, plant, and stock of the company on the best terms that they should be able to make, either at a fixed price, or by arbitra tion, in the mode contemplated by the statutes of the company, taking the pirchase money either in cash or in State Bonds of the Swedish Government, at fair value. The business during the past week has been exceedingly dull in Leeds, and little or no altera tion can be reported in prices. A few buyers of Woollen goods have been in the Market, but their purchases were extremely limited, and confined exclusively to immediate requirements. The pros pects of the trade, however, are considered to be gradually improving, the late crisis having been too severe to admit of any rapid recovery. At Bradford the Worsted Trade .ruled very inactive, the late failures on the Continent and in London still exercising a very unfavourable influence, and most parties are less sanguine than they were a short time ago with regard to an early revival of trade. The Con tinental export houses arc very quiet, and the transac tions in goods for the home trade may be considered closed for the present season. The general state of trade at Halifax showed no improvement, piece goods and Wools being at rather lower quotations. At Manchester the market continues very depressed. Some of the mills, however, in concequence of orders from the East Indies and China, have com menced working full time; but these are very few, and the orders are not of sufficient magnitude to have much effect upon trade generally. All descriptions of Cloths were exceedingly dull of sale, and no improvement whatever can be reported in prices. At Leicester most of the mills are working short time, and want of employment is becoming very general, many of the leading fiems having reduced their establishments now who have not done so for years past, and a speedy revival of trade is not expected for some time to come. In the L9ndon Produce Markets, this week, there has been little animation, and prices exhi bited a downward tendency. Purchasers of Sugar have been very limited, and a decline of fully I.s. per cwt has occurred ; while Coffee, which is also very dull, has receded is to is 6d per cwt. Cocoa is at lower prices, but Rico has remained steady, and extensive trarmetions in the common kinds have been concluded. Spices were quiet, and rather heavy. Saltpetre is is per cwt cheaper, but Tallow is firmer. Messrs. Bradbury and Cook, of London, in their Wool Circular, dated this day, make the following remarks in reference to the Landon Wool Sales just ended : The extensive derangement in monetary affairs caused our Manufacturers to contract, very materially, their operations previous to the commencement of these Sales. Thai; stock of the raw material, however, was so extremely light, that their purchases for immediate necessities gave a higher tone to the earlier part of this Series than was generally expected ; but the extreme pressure which has since produced such disastrous results had not been so severely felt. The reduction at the commencement, on the best descriptions, was 2d to 2d per lb , and on the mid dle, low, and heavy-conditi 'fled flocks, 3d per lb. ; but notwithstanding tha quantity of Woolwithdrs,wn from the Catalcgues nearly every evening, this failed to give adequate support to the Market, and the continued and increasing depression in the manufacturing districts caused a further decline of id per lb. on all faulty and badly washed parcels. Foreign bayers have operated less freely than for some past, and their purchases have again been chiefly confined to the better classes. Our Home Dealers acted with much caation, and have taken only a very limited quantity. Tie fact that this branch of the Wool Trade has been ab?e to pass, so far, through such a severe ordeal without a single failure, may be received as strong evidence in support of the general opinion that it is in a condition at once so and and healthy. [The following appeared in our second edition of Saturday morning.] The stoppage of the Worcester Bank, of Farley, Laven der, and Co., took place on Friday. The liabilities are believed to be very sma 1 The bank was established more than sixty years ago, and has for some time been in a state of decay. It enjoyed a privileged circulation of £15,463, but the amount of notes at present outstanding is said to be only about £4,000. MESSRS. ROBERT SMITH AND Co., MANCIIESTER.—The limes city article states that the above firm having been able to present satisfactory statements and securities to the Bank of England, have received such support from the bank as will fully ensure ihe safety of the firm. WOLVERHAMPTON AND STAFFORDSHIRE BANKING COMPANY. is stated that an application to the Bank of England from the Wolverhampton and Staffordshire Banking Com pany, which stopped on the 17th November; with liabilities estimated at about £1,000,000, has likewise been acceded to. The bank proposed, on Tuee lay last, for the redemption of its note circulation, an i may now be expecWd to resume its ordinary business in the COWS of next week. LONDON Housics SUSPKNDED.—The Times publishes a list of six houses which suspended on Friday. The chief house is that of Hrine , Semon, and Co , largely engaged in the trade with the North of Germany, Moldavia, &c. Their liabilities are supposed to amount to about £700,000. Wienholt, Wehner, and Co., a German house, connected with the trade to the East Indies and Australia, have also stopped. Their liabilities ranged between £250,000 and £300,000, and the prospects of the liquidation appear to be doubtful. T. Elmenhoest and Co., a German house, have also been brought down. The bills have also been returned of Messrs. Montoya and Co., an old Spanish firm. Liabi• tides very small, as the house has been closing transactions for some time. Mr. T. G. Ward, of West Smithfield, agent to cattle salesmen, has also stopped.

The till ply of wheat at our market was en a fair average scale, but the demand was slow at a reduction of is to Is 6d per Carlisle bushel in the week. There was a small supply of barley and oats. Barley was a slow sa'e, and lower in price. Oats were firm, with a good demand. NEWCASTLE CORN MARKET.---DEc. 12. There was a scanty supply of country wheat, for which farmers asked an advance, but very little was done, at scarcely last Saturday's rates. The supply of foreign great y exceeds the demand, and the sales were few at about late rates. S nth country qualities were scarce. Barley was dull and drooping. Oats were a slow sale.

WEEKLY REPORT OF METAL MARKET. There have been some small transactions in most metals this week, but no reco , ery in prices. Copper has at length yielded to the'gene ral presenre, and a reduction of lid per lb. on manufactured, and £l4 per ton on unmanufactured, was declared on Tuesday. The effect of this change has hardly shown itself as yet. The derangement of affairs in Hamburgh and elsewhere has still further depressed tin and spslter, but in the latter a few operatlons have taken place. Lead is neglected, but tin plates are in fair demand. A meeting of the Liberty Mining Company of Virginia is called for the 17th inst. LIVERPOOL ROYAL INFIRMARY. Week Endin; December 12, 1857.

On Saturday, a mounted policeman, from a country station, received in Clonmel a sum of money for the payment of his comrades.

HONESTY IS THE BEST FOREIGN POLICY.—What can an English minister abroad really want but an honest and bold heart, a love for his country, and the ten command ments ? Your art diplomatic is stuff ; no truly great man now would negociate upon such shallow principles. Coleridge' s Table Talk. A female orator, named Ranks, who appeared at all the "Hunger meeting.," in New York, in reply to a query made by some of the papers as to who she was, replied : —" In the parlour, I am a lady ; in business, a man ; and when insulted, a warrior. No one knows who I am, or where I come from ; neither shall any one know." Irma Humoca.—A joke to an Irishman. evsn when nearly famished, is a necessary of life. One of the " finest pisantry," recently imported into Edinburgh, was over heard, a few days ago, addressina. the following query to a lantern-jawed companion :—" Barney, wouldn't you be the better of a two-penny loaf to blow the wrinkles out of your mouth ?" THE " FATHER OF TRH SCOTCH CHURCH."—Since the r'eath of the Rev. Principal Macfarlen, we believe the Rev. Pater Young, minister of the parish of Wigtown, is now the oldest minister in connexion with the Church of of Scotland, this venerable and much respected gentleman having reached the 85th year of his age, and the 57th of his ministry.—N. B. Mail. In the beginning of next year a translation, in the Russian languags, is to be published of the best classical works in the English and French tongues. Prescob's " History of Ferdinand and Isabella" and Philip the Second of Spain," Grote's voluminous "History of Greece," and Thierry's " Norman Conquest," have been selected to begin this undertaking. We (the Illustrated London News) are sorry to say that Felix, the well-known cricketer, has been struck down with paralysis, and is qu it e una bl e to pursue his profession as an artist. Messrs. Lillywhite and Wisden have started a subscription, and we trust that cricketers, far and near will come forward to cheer the sick chamber of one who has been such a glorious wielder of the willow in his prime, and who has done so much to popularise this " truly British" sport. A SldAir Woneer.—A. Hartford paper (Connecticut( tells a story or a woman finding her husband hanging by his neck to a beam in the house. She cut the rope, dragged him down stairs, held his head in so pail of water till he was restored, and then larruped him soundly with a strap. Afterwards he went into her room, and began to show fight, when she attacked him with a rolling-pie, drove him into the next room, and locked him in. The next day she gave birth to a fine boy, who weighed nine pounds, and is doing well. SHOCKING DEATH OF AN AGED WIDOW.-01 M , nday last, an inquest was held at the Leeds Court House, on the body of Mary Webster, a poor widow, aged 79, who resided at Armley Hill Top, near Leeds. On Saturday noon, a manservant was making a fire of old sticks on the ground of Mr. Kettlewell, at Armley, when the deceased asked leave to take a few of the stioke home with her. Leave was granted, and it appears that deceased must have placed one or two burning sticks in her bundle, for when she had gone a distance of about 30 yards her dress and apron were obseried to be on fire. Several persons raa to deceased's assistance, and succeeded, by rolling her on the ground, in extinguishing the fire. She was then removed to the Leeds Infirmary, where it was found that her chest and arms were severely burned. After lingering till twelve o'clock the same night, the poor old woman expired. A verdict of accidental death was returned.—Leeds Mercury. SCOTTISH EPISCOPAL COURCH.—It may be recollected that the government sometime ago withdrew the .Regium Donum of £1,200 biennially granted to the Scottish Episcopal Church, which sum, amounting to £6OO per annum, was almost equally divided,in supplement of the incomes of the bishops and in stipend aid to the poorer clergy. To compensate for the loss thereby sustained a very lib:ral subscription has been entered into by the wealthier members of that church, and subscriptions to the amount of £14,000 or £15,000 have been advertised, in additien to nearly £l,OOO for procuring residencies for the bishop. The subscribers to this capital sum have the option of immediate or periodical payment within five years. Among the larger contributors are Sir John Max well, £2,000; the Duke of Buccleucla, £1,000; the Marquis of Lothian, £5OO ; Lord Rollo, £5OO • Lady Montague, £5OO ; Sir Archibald Edmendeaune, ; Mr. Malcolm, of Poltalloch, Mr. Oswald, of Auchincruive, £5OO ; Mr. W.
