AMERICA. 14 ._,IIIVAL OF 'HIE PERSIA. The Cnnard steam-ship Persia, Captain Judkins, arrived here from New York this (Saturday) morn ing, with dates - to the 30:h, bringing about 150 passengers, end £2OO in specie. these hd vices are four days later than • those previously to hand. A4though the monetary panic had in some degree and ifiled it had not wholly passed away. The New YCourier, of the 30th ult., in giving the latest report . of the note of matters. says The suspended Banks at Philadelphia and Baltimore are gradually settling themselves down upon a non specie cur rency, a-.d their nanv , ments fur the next twelve months will be TegeLre , l in the firs playa by the legitimate demands -upon them by their merchants, and secondly by the means and rriefisures essential to a restoration at an early day: Of a resumption there in nn hope under twelve months. The sales of produce and of rnercllaratilse, , nd business operations generally, in the sullended must be nlapted to a deprcei. d cnrrency ; hence prices when cam pared with those of New York will be nominally higher, but in fact wi lbe somewhat 1-wor. The foreign exports of the country must be regulated by the Specie Standard only.; A meeting of the Presithtta of the sever4l Banks in Palle,' delphia held yesterday aft?rnoo , ., and they decided upon the following imprrtant measuns: 1 A saspensiGn of specie payments on all notes, large and small. 2. The prompt issue of Creir own . mates of the -groaner dc-moraivalons, fOr checks, aril all-wher obligaticros agtinst them. - - - . . 3. An increase CT discJunts t. their customers, vith the object of affording inaliediate. relial. The Banks at Newark and 'the old Trenton Bank feel themselves strong o,ough to maintain specie payments. In doing this, they must, of te , u - se, restrit , .lt their receipts to th)se bills which are eu'valent to specie. Variotas calls have been m•ide by the Wester.s bankers for specie from New tork, to enable them to sustain themselves. Until a few days past the pressu-e awes mainly at New York. Now the reaction is felt at all points in the West We learn that the banking house of E J. Tinkharn & Co, Chicazo, suspended pqtrAnt to dry. blessr , . Darby and Barksdale and M ssrs. John J. Andcrsonj& Co. suspended at St. Louis, temporarUy oily. it is believed, both houses having cloit - ,1 and established credit hitherto. Thus far the suspension extends to the banks of P'nik ctelphia, La ;caster, Ti 4 .sburgh (the bank of Pittsburgla only excepted), Baltimore, Cumbetlend, Norfol, Whorl inn, Wilmington, N. C., and the interior towns generally of those States, Prot:Hence, and all the provincial banks. At New Orleans and St. Louis, wdrcre legislation provides for an en!arged spnie hasie, their barlk will not come into the measure of tripensi na. Ner,'Orleans has fix mtiZions' in specie against a &raulation of eight millions.. St. Louis has three milions in cain to meet a limited circniatior, while Illinois, Indiana, and Wisconsin sre more their is , u , s being h;sA upon state bonds new depreciated 15 to 30 per cent, instead of ,; , ,TAI and silver. The steam-ship Jura, has arrived at St. John. N.B. to bring borne the nth regiment. The political news by this arrival is wholly devoid of interest. From Washington we learn, that the Commis sioners of Paten's was -Eanding out circulars with the view of ascertaining the amount and cost of Cotton consumed in the Unite - 1 States during the fiscal year, ending the. 30,h of June last, and the quantities and value of the different classes of goods into which it is manufactured. The American Sunday Scho 'al Union at Ealtimere, has recently discovered that notes and acceptances amounting to nearly 89,000 dols have been circae lated without their authority. A card has been published disowning them, and assertion - that the Board is .not responsible for their payment. Judge Daly, of the New York Co►nmon Pleas, had held the editor of the Herald to bail in the sum of 8,000 dols, on the charge of libel made by Daniel E. Sickles. We learn that the campaign against the 'ln dians in the region of El Paso may be considered as ended. Two battles have been recently -fou , ht there, in which. fifty Indians were killed arid thirty were made prisoners. The loss on the part of the troops is not stated. We have later news from Havannah. We continue to receive well-authenticated reports of the increas ing prevalence of the slave trade. It never was more flourishing in its palmiest days. Latterly, an Ameriean shin, loaded with Africans_ wec uy a opanisti cruiser; but, as a set-off to this, we are informed by our correspondent that a I;panish. schooner landed 380 negroes in the very port of - Havannah, without any interference from Govern ment officials. It is barely possible that this could he done without the knowledge of the Captain-- General, and hence we must infer that there is some foundation for the charges of corruption made against His Excellency Don Jose de la Concha. COMKERCIA.L INTELLIGENCE. NZNV YORK, S- pt. 30, 18S7 MONETARY AFFAIUS In the early part of the week several failures were announced among the leading Pailadelphia houses; these were followed -en the 25th by the failure of three of their Banks, and on the 26th by the general suspension of specie payments of the other Banks of that city. Tills act occasioned successively the Euspensioa of the Banks of Baltimore and Washington, and a part of those in Rhode Island an I Tennessee. The Banks in the interior of Pennsylvania, Maryland, and' Virginia, have adopted, or seem likely to adopt, a similar policy. The Banks of New York and New Orleans aspire no uneasiness, and seem to have both the means and the determination to maintai❑ specie payments, come what may. The Boston Banks have been made stronger during the past Week, and seem able to withstand the crlsie Large and numerous failures in the various branches of trade and com merce have taken place, and serious apprehensions are fat for the October payments. Confidence has disappeared, and the whole financial. system is for the moment nearly paralysed.; first-class paper can hardly be sold at 24 to 36 per cent., the sales being very limited ; second-class peper cannot be negotiated at any price ou side of Bank. Loans on current securities can only be obtained i❑ limited sums, and with difficulty ; on nncurrent securities it is next to impossible to obtai❑ money. Domestic exchanges aro in a state of confusion, and relations with other cities are temp - wily interrupted, Philadelphia and Baltimore funds being at 7 to 10 per cent. discount; in some of the States, farrnets will only sell for gold. British and Continental exchanges have fallen to pints which leave a largo maigin for profit on tho importation of specie ; but the demand is so resaticted that foreign orders for produce and stock cannot be executed. In the Stock market, the operations are on a small scale, and enormous sacrifices continue to bo made. Amon the failures of tho reek, we noted the Delaware, Lackavrana, a d Western Ezihaad Cornpauy. The Erie Railroad has thus far honoured its engageenen's ; but it is an imperative necessity for the Europes.o, as well as the America:, holders of the unsecured Bands, to subscribe without delay; otherwise, the Company must finally succumb and pass into the exclusive possession of the holders of mortgaged Bonds. State Stocks, weak in the forepart of the week, aad seriously depressed at its close. MARIE AND KANZ. For a tew days after the issue of our last report of 15th in a., the stock market was comparatively steady, and as the supply e r rash stock upon the market was gradually decreasing, there aa., a some indications e4' approaching ,improvements, al t hough the tendency of prices continued rather downward. The aspect of ►natters was, however, essentially changed by the announcement of the lots of the Central 4'n:erica, with the semimonthly remittance of treasure from California. This untoward event, happening at a moment when the usual receipts of gold from that quarter were most ataxcausly awaited, renewed the feeling of panic fro'n which the market had partially r e tottered, and it was materially increased en T ursday last, by the suspension of spscio payments by the Bank of Pennsylvania, followed on Friday, by that of all the banks in Philadelphia, and on Saturday, of than in Baltimore. The effsct of these rapidly succeeding disasters upon the money market was most unfavourable. Confidence was almost entirely destroys d, and the negotiation of loans, even cm the best securities, became neatly impossible on any terms. The suspension of several leading firms in this and other cities, and tl e daily rumours of others, although ascertained to he incor rect, have addsd largely to the prevailing distrust. Bus-ness in stocks, after a short period of dullness, has again become active, in consequence of the money wants of the hollers forcing them to a sale under circumstances in which prices are a secondary consideration. Operations on time are on the most limited scale. eAliletANN & Co. We regret to say that the want of confidence, and the general feeling of une:asiness that has becu felt so long in our business community, has finally resolved itself in'o a financial crisis of the most st rious character. On Friday last we received news that some few cf the Banks in Philadelphia had suspended specie payment, and on the following day that al the Banks iu Philadelphia and in Baltimore had suspended. The effect upon our market was to depress it materially, and we, as a consequence, send very low quotations for every kind of security. The Banks of this c.ty are exceedingly strong, sad at present there is but little probability that they will be oll pelled to succumb to the pressure—but their strength has been gained, and is maintained, at the expense of the business com munity. All the usual facilities for obtaining money seem for the moment to be cut off, The domestic exchanges are in the greatest confusion, and even foreign exchanges is moat difficult to n^gotiate. If the present state of financial matters should continue a few days longer, the effect must be most disastrous. DE COFPETAND CO. THE N ORTIIERN ITMES.--LIVERPOOL, MON DAN, OCTOBER 12, 1857. COTTCX. The monetary diflicul ics pr,vailing throughout the United States at this moment are beginning to influence the cotton trade. The American spinners hive not diving the past year been nb!e to obtain an advance on their manufactures com mensurate with the advance in the raw material, most of them tind themselves with large socks of gro Is on hand which can not be turned into 'cash, and have therefore hen compelled to co to short time, or as is the case in many instances, closed their mills entirely. Th 3 demand for cotton from this class of buyers, which at this period of the year in all the Southern markets is generally very active, does not now e.x:st, aml must be very light for some maritEF. • The American shippers to foreign markets would be willing to some extent to ergage in exporting to Live. pool, Havre, and elsewhere, but the agents of foreign houses in this city not only refusa to make advances., but have sent strict orders to their correspondents at the South to make no engagemen until money matters assnrne a better po=itien.. These citcumatances have uaturalls lift the cotton markets very muci under the the control of the English spinners and manufacturers. We 'have abundance of orders on hand and A large business 'CC oal.d 'be transacted at New Orleans, where the bulk of new cotton so - far is being received, hut for the diffi culty in selling stealing bills, and thus the wheels of the trade are for the moment stopped. The only buyers being checked in their operations the cotton will be stored in Senehern markets on planters account, and must there remain until ster ling exchange -can be negotiated, or the gold sent. from England and France to 'Fey for it. The positio.i of the cotton trade in England, already suffering for want of stock, must be still fat:her inconvenienced, since it is a fact that the exports 'flora this country during the month of October, at least, must be on the smallest scale, and that even in November wi;hOut a speedyand decided improvesnent in the exchange and money markets., hut a limi'ed amount of cotton can be -shipped. The obstacle in 'the way of negotiating bills en England apscars to be stalely e. want of funds'in the hands of English bankers and agenta. There is no ':doubt or mistrust as to the security offered. The seetion market in this city is at a dead stand. Our unsold stack is small, probably not 0 V t.r 5,000 bales, with Out little on the way from the South.. It is impossible to Vie '1: notations with any degree of correctness. NegeC ating 'mxchange on :London is entirely out of tho question, and it is squally as difficult to sell for cash. It is a fortu nate matter frr thous engaged in the trade that the money panic should have occurred when the movement of the old crop-was consummate:l, and the new one net yet commenced, The little stock now here is firmly held, and I have seen no sales to warrant a change in the quotat;ens of last week, which ate renewed, but which must be - considered as quite nominal. The. sales since the 21st inst., including same par cels sent forward from first hands, amottnt to 3,000 bales, mostly for Liverpool. The clearances during same time leave been—le Liverpool, 2,870 baleal; Havre, 30 ; Bremen 466; Rotterdam, 67. Total, 3.433 bales. The Southern markets, as advised by mail, show activity on the part of English buyers at the highest prices yet attained this year ; particulars are given in the repots elswhere. By means of the telegraph we learn that during the past week greater difficulty has been experienced in negotiating bills on England, which has interfered with the buying and restricted the amount of sales. This d fficulty will be further increased at the South, and a serious obstacle thrown in the way of early shipments to any foreign port. New 0. leans, September 26.—Rec:ipts of the week, 19,000 bales; same week last yea-, 32,000 bales. Sales for the week, 18,000. Middling, 16•10. per lb. Freight to Liver pool, Ad.

The plant is represented as shedding bolls, and suffer:ng from a variety of causes. Opinions are confidently expressed that no more cotton will to made in titers States this year than last. From the South and South-western sections of the cotton growing region, complaints are not --so numerous. The general or avera_lo opinion on the sue ject of the incoming crop, I find to be 3,250.000 bales, if we have a fine month of October, and no frost until about the 10th of November ; an early or late frost would change the estimate, perhaps materially. I give this opinion as the prevailing one both here and the - South ; but, as I have had occasion to remark in my late circulars, no dependence should he placed upon any estimate in fi;ures until after the frost and its eft. et upon the plant is fully ascertained. REcEIP a, EXPORTS, &e. —The receipts at this port during the past week have been 14,000 bales, against 34,000 during the same week last year, and 57,000 the year before. The backwardness of the present crop is thus fully confirmed. The export to urreat pritain for the week is 4,000 bales, chiefly from New Yolk. 'There is nothing yettexperted to France.

MANSFIELD, THE MIPADVENTURB GP A MEDICAL STLTDENT.—A young man, dressed a la Picadilly-mode, who gave the name of Hugh L. Pngh, and said he was a medical student, was charged %lila having asssui.ted officer 158. The com plainant said he was on duty in Hutham-street the previous night, when he observed the prisoner drunk, and acting in a disorderly manner, ty crewing a row is the street. He requested him to go away, but instead of doing so,. he tu, ned r and and stuck him a blow, at the same time kick ing' him. The prisoner said he was " oblivious," in c ,nse quenne of having taken to) much " ardent spirits." lie w, - s fined 10s, or to be imprison,d for a month. CHEAP DatilNo.—A. tall, gentlemanly looking person, very well dressed, an d wearing glasses, who gave his name as Joseph Hughes, W 35 cluar , : ; el by a carrel-, who slid the pr . torrer engaged him on F,iday, and kept him three hours, without payment, and he refused t , ) give his address, and he was ohlig,d to give him in charge. The prisoner, who appeared very stupid, said he w - mid send for the money, and pay what he owed. He was remanded until to paid the meney. Duran Fur, MrsTax.u.—Tyro stout f• llows, named Henry Vale and Dan'el Iti‘lienn, were charged with fighing in the street, by Offieer 633, who said he got them hammering each other in the most awful manner, and when he inter • fered they turned on and assaulted him severely. The prisoner Vale said they bad 'enlisted to go out to and, as that was their last night in England, to y got E 00.16 beer and began to fight, by way of practice on the Sepoys. (Laughter.) When taken into custody, he said he was treated rascally by the police, who thaught to come "Captain Rogers" over him, by patting him in chairs. He swore if he were not let out now, he would not go out to fight the " Seapoys? They were put down for the present. PUTTING THE LIGUT UNDER A BUSHEL —John PenrCs ton, who keeps a small brass - foundry at Horatio-street, was brought up by detective offiLer Sullivan, on the following cha-ge. lie said for some time past, a number of lamps, be'onginig to the Corporation and Gas Company, were stolen from - 411e north and south ends of the town. Everything was done to each the thief, hut all failed. He saw the - prisonar, the previous city, go into a marine store ru York -street, and he followed him, when he 'elvr him lay down a cpawity of melted brass. He epiestioned him as to haw he came by it, but he could not tell, and then he took him into custody. On searching his house be found a shape in which the metal had been melted, and he also got a a quantity of lamp frames, which were identified as a portion of the lamps stolen. It appeared that the fram,s were a composition of brass and other metal, and that the practice was to cut out the glass, and melt down the frames. Toe priioner said he purchased the things from a young man, but he could not tell who he was. Ha was seot to jail for two months, for not being able to tell where he got the property. DISHONEST SzaysNe.—Ellen Norris, a wel'-dressed girl, who was servant to Mrs. Jane Miles, who keeps a cigar shop at 48, Renshaw street, was cha - ged for having stolen a large quantity of wearing apparel, the property of her Mistress. In 'ha absence of the complainant the girl went off with the things, some of which were found in a private house. and the rest at 'Webb's, pawnbr ker. The prisoner was sent to jail for three months, as she pleaded guilty, and the pawnbroker was orjered to give up the property pledged, without any payment. A GAROTTER GA ItOTrED !—A powerful-looking named Thomas Brown, was charged by a person named Henry H rdy, who said he was going to Boetle the previous night, and w'se i near the end of Regent Road, some one from bellied seized him wi h a desperate grasp round the neck, which for an instant stunned him with the shock. At the same time, some one else caught hold of his pocket in front, and instantaneously took 153. out of it. He was still held tightly round the neck, but remembering seeing in the papers, some time ago, how to treat a garotter, he at once tried it, and in a seeond of time he had his power ful assailant lying spraw;ing on the ground, roaring like a bull. Two fellows rushed at and began kicking him, but the arrival of Officer 607 frightened them away, and the prisoner was secured. Mr. Mansfield complimented the complainant on his courage, and could wish to find every one who would be attacked by ruffianism, to act as he did. He sent the prisoner for trial. THE FRAUD ON MR. MORGAN, CO AL MERCHANT.— William Smith, who stood charged with defrauding Mr. Morgan, coal merchant, was brought up for final examina ti tn. Mr. Goodere prosecuted and Mr. Roby defended. The details of this case appeared two or three times lately io our paper. The evidence bang complete, the prisoner was sent for trial. FORGED CEET FICATE.—Mr. Tynddl appeared on the Part of the Board of Trade, to prosecute a a tiler named John Roberts, who had attempted to procure the employ ment of a master or first mete of a vessel by forged certi ficates.

IHE SALT CASE.--John Smith and Chaths M'Ardle who were remanded on a charge of stealing 72 cwt. of salt, belonging to B trnard B , gee, were brought up. Mr. Cobb prosecute], Mr. Black defended Smith, and Mr. Campell was for M'Ardle. The details of this case wets published two'or three days age. M Ardle was discharged and admi tea as a witness, and his evidence qui:e ex onerated Smith, who was also discharged. A FLAW IN THE LAW DISCOVERED IN TIME. THE. " PARTHENON."GREA.T CHARLOTTE- STREET. On Saturday, Mr. J. B. Aspinall, barrister, appeared before Mr. Mansfield, at the police court, and applied for a warrant to arrest, in order to hald to bail for the assizes, John G. Stott, the proprietor of a house called the " Par thenon," in G eat Charlotte street. The house was described, according to law, as " disorderly," where females of bad character and others resorts !. The application was made under the Act 25 G eorge II , cap. 26, sec. 5, and two subsequent acts of George PI., well known in re ference to such houses. Mr. Aspinall referred to the recent proceedings taken against the " Hap " in Lime street, wbere there was a conviction against the proprietor. The present preliminary proceedings were the same as in that case. He said a memorial, signed by certain inhabi tants of the street, was presented to the overseers,who served the usual notice on Major Greig, the head constable. All was done according to the acts of parliament, which de fined the proceedings and the necessary notices. He read the letter, and asked his warship to issue his warrant to arrest Stott, in order to hold him to bail, to answer a bill of indictment to be preferred against him at the next assizes. At this stage of the proceedings Mr. Wybergh, the chief clerk, said he had made a discovery that the notice was informal. It was directed to Major Greig, as the head constable of Liverpool, but the Act stated that the notice should be directed to the parish constable, and it appeared that there really was such an officer in ex istence. He asked Mr. Hart, the vestry clerk (who was present) if it were not so ? and Mr. Hart replied there was a parish constable of Liverpool in existence. When was he appointed ? Mr. Hart—About 40 years ago. (Laughter.) Mr. Wybergh—Did he ever do any duty? Yes, he signed an official document. ( Laughter.) A greasy piece of lemon c.loured paper, fully as old as tha appointment of the celebrated unknown, was held up, amid some laughter. Mr. Aspinall was of opinion that the notice would do, when served on any cmstable. Mr. Mansfield said, now that this discovery hal been made, of course advantage would bo tdeni of it by the other party. It would be better to serve the notice on the the other constable so as to prevent mistake. This wis agreed to, ani the parties left for that purpose.

I PUBLICAN CHARGED WITH RECEIVING STOLEN PROPERTY. THE MYSTERIES OF LIVERPOOL. A GANG OF ROBBERS. On Saturday an extraordinary care, as will be observed by the following report, came before Messrs. Mansfield and Hohne, at the Police Court, when a man named Samuel Harr son, a publican, carrying on business in the house, 28, Scotland-road, was brought up on a charge of having received a large quantity of stolen property, knowing it to be stolen. The case wee one of P eculiar importance, and excited considerable attention. The prisoner, Harrison, is a man apparently over 50 years of age, of shabby ap pearance. He was said by the police to be a man of vast wealth, as they considered him is receiver of stolen property for many years, and that they were long on the look-out for him, but never could catch .h;m until the present occasion. Mr. Snowball ate', eared as his advocate. In order that the reader may the better understand the whole case, the following preface may be necessary :—On Tuesday night two unfortunate women of the town, named Margaret Smith and Jane Doyle, robbed a man named George Vance, the captain of a ship called the Villiers, of a silver lever watch and - gold Albert chain. The next day a young fellow, named Cliarles King, called on Captain Vance, and told him he could get his watch and chain for £2. These facts were reported to the police, and in quiry was set on foot. The women were discovered, and taken into custody, and se was the young fellow, King— the three were beside Harrison in the dock. The girl Smith then informed the police that she had stolen the watch from Captain Vance, that she had handed it to the girl Doyle, who had sold it to the prisoner Harrison, the public house keeper, for 15e. This led to the arrest of the two women, and also of King, and subsequently Harrison wag arrested, as will be seen at follows Mr. Clough, with his usual clearness, and the remarkable conciseness of his character, stated the case, and said Margaret Smith had robbed Captain Vance of the watch and chain in question. She handed the spoil to Doyle. who sold it to the publican, Harrison, for 15s. The prisoner King called on the captain, and offered to get him bark the watch for £2. on the condition that the captain would say nothing about the affair farther. Mr. Clough then added that, in consequence of these facts, an application was made to his worship for a warrant to arrest the prisoner Harrison, but the captain who lost the watch was not forthcoming, although every search had been made for him, and although the watch he had lost was Lund is the prisoner Harrieon'a house, by the police, who searched it, and, as they would prove, found a large quantity of stolen property in his place. This pro perty, sa d Mr. Clough, would be identified by other persona from whom it was stolen from time to time. He (Mr. Clough) thought it curious to say that the captain of the ship, who lost the watch, could not be found that day. Mr. Goodere, said he was instructed by the captain to appear for him, said it was not at all very extraordinary that he did not appear, because his ship was going out of the dock that day, and he could not attend. Mr. Clough said he did not think that was the cause— he was of opinion the captain was keeping out of the way. Mr. Goodere: I beg to say that is not the fact. He instructed me to appear for him this day, but he slid he had a great deal of duty to perform, and, perhaps, he would not be able to attend. Mr. Clough : I field that Mr. Goodere was with the captain to a late hour het night, and his not appearing here now looks vary suspicious. Mr. Goodere, I think, ought to be able to say something as regards his absence. Mr. Goodere : I beg leave to say that I was with the captain last night, but not to a late hour. The reason I was so engaged with him was this. He was instructing me how to proceed in this case, and I will not allow Mr. Clough, nor any other man in existence to dare tell me— no matter how high the standing of Mr. Clough, or others may he—that I have acted unprofessionally, illegally, or improperly. Mr. Clough may think he le very high in a certain position in this town, but if he dares to assail my honour and professional reputation, high as he thinks he is, I will take an opportunity of soon bringing him very low. I will soon bring him to his proper level He has been tolerated here too 1 tg. but I, for one, will soon put an end to his illegal and domineering proceedings, even if I were to stand alone against his itlegsiity. I shall take upon myself the responsibility of crushing the monstrous nuisance of Mr. Clough or any ono else, except a legally qualified person, from acting as an advocate in this court, and I now warn Mr Clough that I 'shall proceed against him the first opportunity that presents itself to me. Mr. Superintendent Kehoe was then sworn, and ex amined by Mr. Clough. He said : Your worship granted a warrant yesterday. and, in consequence of that, I went with several other officers to search the house of Harrison, in Sc Aland-place ; it is close to Ben Johnson-street. I asked if he were in, and his wife said he was not. I then called her into the tap-room, and spoke to her, saving we were about searching the house. Four detectives, Horne, Eaton, Scaife, and Astic, made a simultaneous search of the house, when we found the following property :—A brown over coat ; a sack coat with velvet collar ; a black alpaca coat ; a black velvet vest; a pair of black cloth trousers; a pair of pilot cloth trousers ; a remnant of black cloth ; five black silk handkerchiefs ; a black satin ditto ; seven coloured silk handkerchiefs ; three large new wool sh and one silk ditto; seven whitehendle knives, and ten forks same; six blackhandle knives and one fork; four pair of women's boots; a quantity of burglars' tools ; a very murderous weapon, in the shape of what is called "a life preserver" (a life destroyer rather) ; two cloths marked "A. Hodgson ;" a silver watch and gold Albert chain (stolen from Captain Vance, of the Villiers, as already stated) ; a grey alpaca dress (very remarkable), and a variety of other property. The superintendent continued to say that some time ago, the stables of Mr. Adam Hodgson were b oken into, and some cloths that were stolen thereout, were found in the house of the prisoner Harrison. The superintendent further added : I asked the prisoner what account he could g've of these thing found in his house ? and he said he could not account for them at all, as he knew nothing about them. The coats, he said, were left there from time to time, but he could not say who left them. The dresses he could not account for, but he said the knives and forks were left there by a fellow named Jack. I asked him what Jack, and his daughter said, Jack Greene. I said, " Don't you know Jack Greene is a thief ?'' but she made no reply. The grey alpaca dress I have found, was stolen from the house of Mrs. Power, in the Park, in January last, and the clothes, &e., will be proved by Mr. Holgeon'm man to be the property of that gentleman. The house of Harrison (sail Kehoe) is a rendezvous for letters from convicts and robbers to each other. I got crucibles for melting silver there. _ _ _ _ _ _ Mrs Elizabeth Jones wal then examined, and said : In January last the dress which she now identified, was stolen from her Muse, whilst the servant was absent a few moments, and lefr, the door open. In reply to Mr. Snowball, the lady said the dress was manufactured specially fur her, and there was none other bke it. Detectives !Horne Eaton, Astic and Scaifa were examined as to the finding of the property in the house of Harrison, and Henry D owoody, a servant of Mr. A. Hodgson, stated that the two cloths, now pr)duced, and marked with his ma ter'a name, wezo stolen from the stalls on the Pich July last. Mr. Mansfield asked the governor of the Bridewell, if Harrison were known to the police before the present time ? and Mr Bur on said not in Liverpool, but he was tried 15 years pg, at Chester. Mr. Holme asked if he was the licensed person for the house in Scotland Road ? and the reply was in the affirmative Mr. Clough asked for a remand of all the prisoners, and trusted to be able to come at a few more of the gang. The prisoners were then remanded for seven days. At LEWIS & COMPANY'S, Banelagh•street. BOYS are CLO7IIED in the Ages of Six to Twenty Years.

" Woe unto him, that giNeth Ms neighbour drink, that puttest thy t Continued front Bth Octo-6er.] CHAPTER V. EVILS OF DRUNKENNESS ON RELIGION. If religion was inconsistent with true politeness, or prejudicial to real happiness, I should be axtremely iuj udicious in introducing or attempting to exh.bit the injury dote to it by drunkenness, but as it is the grand ornament of our nature, and a source of the sublimest joy, it cannot, then, be regarded as unworthy the countenance And protection of the most accomplished; it seems to me to be as much supei for to all low and forbidding singolarities, its the " Heavens are higher thou the earth ;" indeed, it is described by one who learned its theory in the regions of Farad se, and who displayed its efficacy in his own most ex smplary conversation, and described it in this incomparable language—" The kingdom of Gad is not meat and drink, but righteousness, and peace, and joy, in the Holy Ghost." How benign and inviting—hew honourable and advantageous, then, is religion. What is there in the amusements of the gay, the gin shop, the theatre, the hop, or the horse race ? Way, all that wealth ever can purchase, that grandeur can bestow, are somewhat like bubbles, which, when viewed, are emptiness—wee - a grasped, are nothing ; whereas, the comforts, the benadti, and the hopes of religion are at once supremely excellent, and infinitely durable, suited to the dignity of the rational soul, large as its faculties, and immortal as its being. Sad and miserable must be the condition of the drunkard; gloomy and uncom'ortable must be the circumatances of those wisom intoxi cating drinks compel to withdraw themselyee from the sanctifying and exalting influence of the religion of Christ. Indeed, the evils of drunkenness, however appalling, however painful acid distressing, are trifles, light as the air, apart from the tremendous, the terrible thought, that the " drunkard will not inherit the Kingdom of God," as declare 3 in Holy Writ. Fearful reflection, when it is contemplated in connection with the fact of government returns, shoeing that upwards of 12,000 inquests are annually held in the United Kingdom on per sons killed through drunkenness. The loss of 12,00$ individuals every year is of itself sufficient to shock reflection, for it is irreperable. But it is not tke greatest loss that can be sustained—the loss of 12,000 immortal souls is far, very far, more important. The value of ione soul to that soul itself is not to be equalled by all things In existence, combined, whether celestial or terrestial; hence it is that the former loss, though irreperable and too distressing to think upon, sinks into a secondary reality. How many more are shut out from Heaven through drunkenness, who may not positively die in a state of intool. cation, is b-yond my province to give judgment, but I shall adduce facts to show th it Heaven is dispollel of its rights, and, if possible, dimin shed in its bliss through drunkenness, to a vary great extent. If, however, our opp ,nente should soy that no direct scripture authority can be adduced in defence of total abstinence, we mainta'n that the erinciple, apart from expediency, seems to be involved in two memorable passages :—As it regards man's own interest and duty, in the precept of our Lord, to pluck out the right eye, or cat off the right hand or foot, if it cause to offend ; and as it regards our duty to our neighbour in the declaration of the inspired ripest! a St. Paul. It is good neither to eat flesh ner to drink wine, nor anything whereby thy brother stumbles, or is offended, or is made we ik," Rom. 14-21; and in addition to there being many eminent characters mentioned in the Word of God who were total abstainers, we see everywhere that, in propertioa to its prevalence, drankenness deteriorates the moral character of the people, and it %sin be my business to prove that it is the chief outward obstruction to the progress of the gospel ; Lke Peter and John, who stood in the council and boldly declared wh t theyhed seen and heard, so do total abstaining Christians boldly declare what they have seen ant heard of the evils of drunkeoness ; and, further, that as no tree is withered by the frost of the polar regions, or by the searching winds of the Arabian Desert. so would there be no withered blighted drunkards, and mlaerabla familie , through drunkenness, if alcholic drinks were prohibited. el hers the vice of drunkenness has obtained possession of the father of a family, he neglects the moral, religions and mental in- Istraclion of his children. This is the first thing neglected. If the father, when sober, has been in the habit of attending to it, he now however neglects it, he now becomes heedless of it, his depravity rendering him utterly careless of their well-being. Besides, the twopences required for the school are ceasiderei. entranehme .ts on his indulgences, inasmuch as each twopence will purchase for him one pint of fourpenny, and is of far greater importance to the drunkard than the edacaton ofhis chldren. One Monday in ornina I was told by a woman weeping, in the neighbourhood of London-roal,that her husband came home drunk the previous night (Sunday) at 12 o'clock, having spent all their money, and that sic could not, therefore send the children to school. Ia order that children may go to the Sabbath t school, it is necessary that they go decently clad ; not only is that again considered an .ntrenchment on his indulgences, but what drunkard, allow me to ask, possesses that feeling to see his chi dren on the Sabbath morning in that state of neatness And cleanliness the disci pline of the Sabbath school enjoins. On my easy the other Sabbe h afternoon to oppose that vile sect the Mormons, who process to adchass the iahabitan's of this and every other town in England, on the principles of the gospel of Christ, while they are influenced by the ungodly principles of the Book of Mormon, which is simaly the chimera's of a disordered brain, per verted by Jot Smith, ao American imooster, for purpos s of delesion and plunder, I saw some bays playing LI Wiliam Henry-street, the largest I ad iresse I thus:—" How is it you are not at the Sabbath scho A instead of wasting the Lord's day, as you are doing ?" His reply was this :—" I have no clothes, sir," pointing to his ragged trowsers and tattered j acaet ; " these are all I have, or I would go, sir." I continued my interrogatorie asking him how it was that he had no better. My father drinks, sir, amid spends his wages at the public-house, and mother cannot afford to buy me any with t'm money she gets by washing. The National Temperance Chronicle, No. 25, page 21, stales that a woman, in answer to a question of a temperance missionary, said we were very comfortable before my knsband began drinking; yes, added a little boy who was listening to the conversation, I used to go to Sunday sch )01 when my father broaeht his wages home to mother. instead of taking them to the public-house on Saturday night, but new I have not any clothes to go in, or I would like to go—l like gong to the Sunday school, I learn good things there. Thus are the drunkard's ch ldrea prevented attaining the means of religious instruc ion, through the father's v;cions habit of drunkenness, and thus they grow up in profanity and vice. Need we wor.der at so mach juveni e delinquency, when the children of drunkards are co-opened. as it were, to spend the .Fabbath in sin thta.ulh th drunkenness of their fathers. The 3rd repel of the National Temperance Society, page 3, gives the following case of wretchedness through drunkenness :—" Dreak make. us a very unhappy family, said the wife of a drunkard ; my husband spends the money in drink that ought to make us comfort able. We cm sot afford to send our children to school, or even purchase a bliele. I istead of attending a place of worship on the Lord's day, our house is more like hell than anything else. The same report states that another temperance missionary visited 11,371 families in London, comp. Isla; 56,853 persons. 17,000 of these never heard or read tie scriptures, and were as ignorant of them as of the statute book ; nay, mach m n•e so, for it was to be feared that many of them we-n better acquainted with the laws of the realm, having bean frequently punished by then ; for this, 17,000 spent the Sabbath in desecrating it by drunkenness and other vice. Thus there was that appalling amount of heathenism in the very midst ad the melroeolie of Christian Endlan 1, In the midst of temples, sanctuaries, and christiaa online tees. Yes, In the very plane where m llions of the sacred Sc iptares hare been shipped t o the Hineoe, the African, and trim s,t, to all the benighted parts of the earth. It was not b :cause these 17,003 were without the means of procuring the Bible; no, it .vas their drunkenness. Intemperance extineuishel all moral and religious principles; it creales a disregard of all truth, indifference to °ducat on and religion, insensibility to shame, and entails indescribable degradation. In leoi, tee report o this missionary was so appalling, as not on'y to be qiesti sued by Colonel Sykes, chairman of the East India Co npany, D Grey, and F G. P. Neils° ~ Eeq., bat they determined upon testing its accuracy by personal inspection, and therefore these philanthroaic gentlemen accompanled the missionary, and in their homane lab curs, found in one roan, 17 feat by 13 feet, 23 perso ss of five families. The room was without a single bed, and no furniture, excepting an old stool, an old table, and one chair; there ware some shavings in one corner of the room, which composed the restieg plane of the lath -rs, mother and children, of these five families, and thus these Chr stian and benevolent g mtlemen mare than affirmed the report of the mission • ary. Who need, therefore, be aetealshed at the zeal and perse verance of tail abstainers in so'l&ing the drunk trd to give up his drunkenness. They do not belong to these that mock the circum stances of the poor drunkard, No; when they speak, it it in love; when they soliclt, it is in the sincerity of their souls. Without a single tai .t, total abstinence sympathises with all the conditions of the drunkard. Hence the language of the total abstainers is," come with us and we will do you good."

In calling for my name as due to bica se ot Colonel Bykee overlooks the circumstance that I wa s discussing the question of our future policy in Indisf d him, but answering your correspondent "P.;" ended introduced his name solely because he, as I cone, ,g a ,' from his former later, endorsed and supported " views and advocacy of our perseverance in the traditio,ll% a ill b w r Lifter; rcetig policy.

I readily accep t - iis t issue he has raised, though I can do no more than' Bid, glance at the subject, which would require, as "P a volume, rather than a few paragraphs, for its inst tmssion. Colonel Sykes denies my assertion, that unto the traditionary policy of alleged neutrality there has b Oe a negation of our Christianity in India. I submit ersi fallowing frets, falling within the period of my 015 lif m e, in proof of y assertion First, let us take the fact of the expulsion, under A tl i : immediate orders of the Governor-General. from 170 Bengal army, of one of its non-commisioned officers, a of good birth, a Brahmin, and an excellent soldier, on 14 sole ground that he had sought Christian baptism. s t ; d e was not this a disavowal and practical negation of the faith in the eyes of every Hindoo and Mussulman is army ? How else could they understand it ? Look, again, at the saluts from cur ramparts, even cs, s ,, Sunday, in honour of idolatrous and Mahometan festive / # These sounded in my ears during a long period of 11 1 residence in India. the Look at the offerings presented in the name of Government to idols ; to the grants from the P u— of y. treasury, in seasons of famine and drought, for idols hat rites to propitiate the Hindoo deities fur rain ; and to i s ; whole system of support and supervision of temples and their affairs, now happly almost abeitio: an which was felt by myself and by every Ch ris f i e sl officer required to carry out the system as a p rac , - „ 0 1 disavowal of our Christianity. I must here remind C o t*. Sykes that this system is even now in force by 7,011' for the legislative enactments enjoining it a re unrepealed. what" But to pass on to some of the facts of la'er date.

These oruois I know, were not enforced, although they were, es ,w e i s e• expressly told by the then Chairman of the Court, o r therance of " the policy so long observed by our Co l on el ment." But why were they not enforced? Let o°lsi Sykes move for these orders in the House, and when tior are produced, with the minute of Mr. Frederick 31 , t he who upon their receipt at once placed his seat Il l tol o,.
