APPLICATIONS FOR NEW LICENSES. Yesterday w.ts the second day of the licsnsieg sessions, and the interest of the trade, as well as that of the appli cants in the prcceelings of the day, was evinces by the numbere in attendance. Ow;ng to the Dock Committee's excursion, the attendance of magistrates was not so numer ous as on Monday. The following were on the bench yei terday :—Xiessrs. James Aikin, cha'rman ; G. Holt, R. E. Harvey, T. D. Anderson, Alde•man Turner, E Heath, J. R Jeffery, Richard Shell, T. Bolton, C. Chaloner, J. Stewart, R. Bann, T. RAth'oone, and A Dixon. THE EVIDENCE IN rIIVATid. —PAS CJIIIIT AND TIM BAR. Mr. Aspinell said : Before the magistrates proceed to the consideration of the list, I have an application to make, er 1-ibi!'olustilie, in the matter of an application before the cart yesterday, and decided by the magis trates. In the course of the proceedings yesterday, I had occasion to make some obse:erations upon a practice said to 'prevail, and which I said did prevail—the prac tice of the magistrates, when retired to their private roo e calling and receiving evilence. And Mr. Bolton, speaking from the bench, and in the hearing and on the part df the la nch, assured me that the allegation was not true. I was then assured from the bench that that was true which I 'knew not to be true and that a practice was mot adopted which I was assured then and know now has been and is adopted. My allegation now is that the assurance which I had yesterday from Mr Bolton. ,nfamed by Mr. Hahn a, was not true. I.speek it with .07ery respect ; but I say that I am now in a posifon to Mate that that which I was yesterday assured did not take place did actually take .yiace. In the case of a person - named Cis ke, whose application was Tonsithred here, yesterday, I am in a position to show, and I defy any person P 3 crntradiet me, that after the magistrates retired to their private room, a witness-an inspector of police —was called in and pee evidence in the ctso. I say nothing of the propriety of this mode f dealing. I leave the -public to Judge of &at. The Fim:emn assartece from the Bench that the practice west, )t adopted, which I now say I can prove, had ac tuellyjustlesforebeen adopted by the Bench. The .public, I say, willjudgeof that. I say that the assurance was solemnly Rivp - z - to me from the 'Bench that that - wee not dons, which I now say I can prove has been done If the applicant lia.d been bea d there would not be anything t complain of ; and my application now is that the case be ref , -keard, and that the inspector who then gave erridence"branow called, and his evidence be giron in open court. Mr. Boltan : I Nv7sh to say a few words in consequence .cf the perssnal reference to Tube f. It is perfectly true that when Mr. Clarke's name was mentioned in the pri vate- room, a statement was made that he hal been before in possession of a license, and that it had been forfeited because of the way in which he had conducted it. We, in conrepence ofthat, sent for Mr. Clarke to come into - the magistrate'? roes and explain. After a time our messenger returned, and said Mr. Clirke mu't have left the clurt. Then, sir, and not until then, evidence was asked for and taken as to the statement of the withdrawal of the license It was then made to appear by the inspector that the applicant had had a license for a house in Fellool-lane, and that it was so irregularly conducted as to civr,se that license to be withdrawn. Mr Aspinall: Wel, I have now the assurance of Mr Bol , on that that which I was assured from the bench was not true is true. And this is another proof of the inc.mvehieac3 of the practice I condemn —the hearing of evitionce in a private room. It was very well known that Mr. Clarke was rep,eseritea by counsel and attorney, and it was perfectly easy to send for them. I don'c know what is the public opinion of a case in which evidence -was heard, although it was stated that it would not be ~heard, and had not heen heard. It is for the public to express its opinion; bat on the part 'of the applicant and on the part of justice. I 11 , 1 now that the evidence yes terday heard in the private room be now called in open court, in order that wo shall have an opportunity of cross examination. Mr. Aik 7 n: I can, for myself, say that when I heard the qussti.)n a- ked yesterday whether or not evidence was allowtd to be given in the private room, I doubted very much the propriety of its being- asked ; but I had no doubt at all that, as a matter of propriety, it ought not to -be answered. I hope the gentleman referred to is inca pable of saying or doing anything which is not perfectly right, an I this only convinces me of the impropriety of answering the question pat. But I question very much whether any gmtleman has a right to make any such enquiry; and I must protest, as a member of this bench against any gentleman here being catechised. It is an irregularity which I must express a hope may not again occur. Mr. Aspinall: Whatever the opinion of an individual magistrate may say Mr. Aikin : 1 beg your pardon, Mr. Aspinall. When I. as chairman here, say anything from which any member ( f the bench does not dimly . , I must be understood as speak ing the opinion of the bench. Mr. Aspinall said he felt bound, in his own behalf, to say that ho spoke with the unanimous consent of his pro fessional brethren near him, and again asked that the evider ce be re-heard. Mr. Aikin said they would deride on their return into caurt.with the other applications. MR AP PLICATION S. - TAUX HALL WARD. The applications were then proceeded with, and Vauxhal Ward was first taken. Mr. Bremner appeared for H W. Werneck: Mr. Wer .xteck was, he said, a German, who came to Liverpool seven or eight years ago, and set up a lodging-houle in Marybone, in which many of his countrymen who came here to emigrate took up their residence. Mr. Werneck bei g a foreigner, was brought into collision with the authorities here, and his license was withdrawn. He appealed, and that appeal was very properly given against him. But he was sure, however the man may have been brought into conflict with the magistrates, they would not suffer that to prejudice his case He was a perfectly honest man, and hal never been suljeeel to any fine in conducting his business. Mr. J. H. Tamer said he was present when the case ,so.` the applicant was brought before vtr. ATinall Tobin -during his mayoralty, ani a gr.ls....er violation of all the provisions of the law hid never taken p!a Cc. The Semetary for the Home Department had sent down special instruc tions in consequence of it ; and if Mr. Snowball persevered, he would certainly call for the whole proceedings to be read. Mr Snowball madesome further apologetic_ observations, and, the court proceeded. Mr. Hughes addressed the court on his own part, and handed in hi 3 papers.—Mr. Leatherbarrow said ho was twenty-seven years a ratepayer of the town, and had for merly been in a better way. For some years things had ,gono bad'y with him, and he hoped they would help him to recover. His house was the largest in the strret and the most suited for a licensed house, and he hoped the bench woul4 c)nfar a benefit on him and his family and vaunt one. Mr. Mulvill said he had been in possession of a license, of which he had been robbed, and he hoped now to get another. ST. PAUL'S WARD. Mr, Xing appeared on h's own behalf. and Mr. Mans field and Mr. Bremner opposed, the applica ion of Mr. Mottram, who was now a wholesale dea'er, and wanted a retail licea;.c, not to keep a public , house, but to accommodate his customers. Mr. Bremner said there were fice.hones within such a distance of Mr. Mottranes you might throm a biscuit into any of them from his door. FOLCITA NGE WARD, Mr. James Glovar was the only app'ieant in this ward. CASTLE•gri:EET WARD. Mr. Snowb4ll supported the application of Mr. GeoTga Mitchel, and snowed the suitability of his premises for a licensed business. He read a rcemorial, and stated that formerly three or fur licensed houses were in the place now oempied by the buildings of which Mr. Mitchel's premises were past. Mc .Greorge Holt : Are not these Mr. Thompson's buildings,? Mr. ijretherton : .oh, ye', sir; and I oppose the appli ca•i*n M. Snowball did not see why Mr. Thompson should not have such places. in fact they were a public benefit. It seemed to be settled that Mr. Thompson should be objected t) becauea he built houses fie thought he ought to be much more enc ursged as a public benefactor. Mr Brethertor., on b•-lialf of several persons in the neighbourhood, opposed the applicatim. He said it was singular that Mr. Thompson never built any premises fir which he did not want a epirit license. lie cc rended that the premises were unsuited and unnecessary. Mr. appeared for Mr. John Wilson, in whole favour he read a memorial signe I by Mr. Lace, his land lord, and all the gentlemen having offices in the court. ST. PETER'g WARD. Mr. Aepinall applared for Mr. Camidge, and said he was a man alrtey carrying on a most respectable trade in the sole of bpttle I ale and porter, in small quanti , ies, and Dnke.strcet being a street in which there were many hoarding hc,asei, and the memorial state,' that st.ch a house Was necessary. The magistra•es here roe to rotire, when Mr. Bremner said thz,t sinca the court separated yester day, he had thought very _seriously of the questions to be considered in dealing with all applications in that court, siad the more be ,coosidorpi, the more !trongly was he convinced of the reasonablene's of what he then urged The act of parliament- he thought was clear. The ninth section was distinct ; it incleed two features, to which the magistrates should direct their inquiries ; first, the fitness of the hou-e, and next the fitness of the person. And the tw nty-seventh section give the power of appeal aga;ntt their decision, to any person who shall be dissatisfied wi h their adjudicetion. Now, their worships e:e - e aware that an appeal should set forth the grounds of the decision appealed against, and there fore, if the magistrates did not state the reasons for their decision in each case the power of appeal given by the act was nullified, and the power of appeal was in reality destroyed. When their worships said they gave a license to A B. or C. D. and refused it to all the rest they ready do not give any power of appeal. For when they went to Ktrkdale and tailed to disc'ose grounds for the decision appealed against, the court then said they could not interfere with the discretion of the magistrates. 4. Shew us they have done wrong," they say, " and we will enquire ; but it you. came to appeal against their discretion we cannot bear you." Therefore, said Mr. Bremner,l have respectfully to ask your worship to give your reasons for decidirg in each case. Mr. Aspinali wished to express his cordiel concurrence in all that his learned friend had said; but he went further, and maintained that the magistrates had no power to inquire of anything beyond the question of the fitness of the house for the purpose of a licence, and the fi . ness of the party to conduct it. And when they inquired into and decided upon eny application with regard to . the wants of the neighbourhood, and said, "We won't grant this application, because the wants of the neighbourhood don't require it." They did what, he respectfully contended, they had no right to do. He pledged himself that, if the magistrates would give that as a ground fur any decision, the whole question should be raised ui-on appeal. The magistrates then retired, and when th,y returned to court aftt r an absence of am hour and a half, Mr. Ain said, I regret we should have kept the court waiting, bat the fsult was not with us, but with the questions we have had to consider. With regard to the questions raised by Mr. Breainer, and Mr. Aspinall, that we should assign our reasons for granting or disallowing any application, we have come to the conclusion that it would be inconvenient and undesirable that we should assign our reasons for any decision we may come to, or state the facts. We think that it is in many cases, besides such as the present, undesirable, but moreso in licensing sessions than at any other time. It may be a question whether the '9th clause of the licensing act does not admit of a somewhat larger interpretation than Mr. Aspinall has given P—whether it does not admit of a somewhat longer inquily upon our part than the fitne-s of the house and tl.e fitness of the person. The words of the clause is that at their meeting., we shall take into consideration " anything touching the granting, withdrawing or transferring of any license."—" Anything touching." We are to enquire, under this section, any thing touching the fitness of the hoase or the fitness of the person ; but it appears to me that we are authorised to inquire " touching" other things also, before we give our decision. The question, whether or not we nave that power, is one well worthy of enquiry, and I hope that arrangements will be made between the learned gentleman and the Court, to have an argument and decision on the case. I think the words of the clause give the magistrates a discretion in such cases to inquire beyond the fitness of the house and person ; but if it shall be decided that we have not that dissretion, I shall be glad, extremely glad, of it, for a more unpleasant duty does not attach to the offine of a magistrate than thin. We may be wrong in our decision, but se have decided that we shall not disturb the rule hitherto acted upon in this respect in this court. As to the speci,l question raised by Mr. Aspinall, I may say that the only enquiry made in private yesterday was as to the identity of Mr. Clarke ; and as there appears to have been some irregularity, we have decided that the itn!niry may be again gone into in open court, either now or at a future time before the close of the proceedings. Mr. Aikin then announced that licences were granted to William Hughes, Eidon-pl , ce ; George Mitchell, Dale street and H. F. CamidgP, Duke street. The list was then proceeded with. PITT-STRERT WARD. Mr. Snowball appeared for Mr. C. Harris, and showed the necessity of a house in that place, and its suitability. The rent was £2OO a-yea:. There was no opposition. Mr. Blackhurst appeared for Mr. J. S. Wright. Mr. Bretherton appeared for Mr. J. Orrell, jun., who was opposed by Mr. Pemberton, and the application fell to the ground, Inspeczor Chew having stated it was yet un finished. GRE fT GEORGE'S WARD. Mr Harrison appeared for himself. He was forty years a ratepayer, he held one house for seven years, and the present br eight years, and this was the eighth appli cation. He had never been fined. Mr. Daily, solicitor, appeared for Mr. John Warburton, whose claims he urged with great force, as a man whose peculiar business rendered a license necessary. Mr. Bretherton appeared for Mr. Richard Gerard. Mr. Dodd appeared for Jane Robertson, RODNEY STREET WARD. Mr. Campbell appeared for Joseph Green. Mr. Atherton for Wm. Corlett. Mr. Bretherton for Jas. Wrigglesworth. This was his eighth time of application. Mr. Bremner appeared on behalf of parties instructing him to support the application. It was stated that Mr. Wrigglesworth had previously a license for another house in Newington, for which he gave £5OO, when his rent was doubled, and he was obliged to quit the house, forfeiting the whole amount. Mr. Campbell appeared to stippoit_ the application of Mr Bell. Mr. Richard Roberts appeared to sustain his own appli cation. Mr. Aspinall appeared for Mr. D. A. Inglis, of Pleasant street. Mr. Inglis has carried on the pale of beer and porter, in small quantities, and has been for several years in the service cf Messrs. Main and Gladstone, and is at present with Mr. Pim.—Mr. Thornley, who has hitherzo opposed Mr. Inglis's application, had withdrawn his opp si tion. Mr. snowball appeared for Henry Green, who intendsd to open a commercial inn there, and not to have a dram shop. Mr. Roby appearel for Mr. Robert Reid, whose claim he enforced with g•eat f Rea, calling Inspector Chew to testify as to the re!pectability with which the beerhouse is conducted. ABERCRI)MRY WARD. Gilbert Ireland and James Pentland supported their own applications.—Mr. Snowball appeared for Mr. Jas Williams, who h,d constructed the premises for a publ•c house. whcse premises were most suited, as they were connected by a long pssage, giving every facility for servants to reach it, and enabling the young women in the neighbouring residences to have the advantage of the house without going through the public streets. The magistrates here ret!red to consider the applications; when they returned, Mr. Aikin said—The applications of Wm. Croshaw Harris, Canning-place, Wapping; of Richard Gerrard, Queen's Dock ; of James Wripleswortb, Newington, and Henry Green, Renshaw-streer, have been granted ; the others have been refused. With regard to the application of John Warburton, we consider that as he has only extended his premises by adding some adjoining, he re• quires no new license. LIME-STREET WARD Was then proceeded with. Mr. Thetherton applied on behalf of William Ward Stannalsnd, Finch -street, and John Chesters, Hotham-street. Mr. Aspinail appeared f it. Mr. Richard Holmes, formerly owner of a house in Finch-street, who smelt a license for the house in Lime street, occupied by Mr. Charles Grain, but which, if licensed, Mr. Holmes won't occupy. ST. ANNE'S WAItD. Mr Bremner appeared for Thomas Pointon, Islington ; and Mr. Andrews' application, Scotland-place, was sus tained by Mr. Bretherton. The magistrates retired, and after a short absence, returned, when Mr. Aikin annout ced that the application of Mr. John Chester, Hotham-street, and Mr. John Andrews, Scotland place, were granted, and the rest refused. he Court then adjourned till eleven o'c:ock this (Wednesday) morning. The number of applications granted during the day was nine. BANKRUPTS• By British and Irish Magnetic Teleyriph. J. Meyreck, Crewe, teilor. J. Silions, Sheffield, grocer. J.

MONETARY AND COMMERCIAL. LIVERPOOL, Tuesday Evening. The clemNnd for Citton was not so active to-day, yet the sales were tolerably large, fully 8,000 bales changing hands, including 2,000 on speculation and for export. Prices continue to be well sup. ported. The Liverpool Share Market keeps firm, ht.it business is very circumscribed. To-da j 's trans actions consisted of :-Birkenhead, Laueashire„ and Cheshire, 651, .651 ; Eastern Counties, ilk; Great Western, Oil ; Lancashire and Yorkshire, 99 ; Ditto .R 9 Shares, ap ; London and.

Near Shares, p ; Great Luxembourg, 7, 71; Grand Trunk of Canada, 12 13 16, 14 The Funds te-play were not so depressed, owing chiefly to the more favourable tendency of the bullion movement. The improvement in Consols is about per cent., the following being the closing prices :-For Money, ,0 1 to 901, and for the Account, 901 to 911-. The New Three per Cents. closed at 919- to 911. The London Railway Share Market was very firm to-day. The closing prices were as follows :-Caledonian, 801, 801; Eastern Counties, 11 5-16, 11 7-16 ; East Lancashire, 951, 961; Great Northern, 961 97 ; Ditto A, 89, 90 ; London and North Western, 1001, 1001 ; Lanca shire and Yorkshire, 991, 100 t-; Manchester, Sheffield, and Lincolnshire, 401 ; Midland Stock, 821 ; North British, 47*, 48* ; York, Newcastle, and Berwick, 931, 94 ; York and North Midland, 781, 79 ; Grand Trunk of Canada, 511, 55. The Manchester Market was rather better, and the advance in Yirns since Friday may be set down at to id._ - - - In the General Produce Markets a moderate business continues to be transacted, at about pre vious rates. The Grain Trade continues very dull, and lower prices aro aciepted for all descriptions of Bread stuffs. ,At all the Markets held today there was very little business done, and prices of Wheat may be quoted at a decline of 2s to 3s per quarter. The Committee of Mexican Bondholders have received advices from Mr. Whitehead, dated tne 2nd inst. The Estandarte the offi3ial journal of the capital) of the 13th July last, publishes the eir.aular order of the Minister of Finance, dated 25th June, on the receipt of which by the Custom houses, the suspension of payments was to cease as regards the foreign bondholders and Convention creditors, with a proviso, however, that the Government anticipations, to the amount, it was said, of $205,000 still in circulation, were to be satisfied out of the duties. According to this, the revenues of the dividend fund would again be at the disposal of the bondholders about the beginning of July last, burthened with a liability of about $51,000. The La Plata, however, brings no remit tance yet, for which various reasons are given. The $22,000 in the hands of the agents in Colima had safely arrived in Manzanilla, for shipment to the Bank of England, via Panama. The Republic was tranquil, and the difficulties with Spain appeared for the moment to be the chief subject of excitement there. Our last adVices from Bourdeaux state that the wine districts are in a very satisfactory condition, and that most abundant vintages will be secured. A correspondent writing from Kingston, C. W., on thel7th inst., states that the crops are abundant and no blight whatever—''l see people daily, perhaps from 50 to 100 miles round. The merchants at the other side of the lakes say that the weevil is gene ral amongst the wheat; but it is well known to all in Canada that the Chielgo weevil with two legs who suffered so awfully by money losses last year, will find it difficult to decoy the staff of life this season.' The following are the latest quotations of Foreign Exchanges :—Amsterdam, short - , 11 161 to 11. 17 ; do. three months, 11. 19 to 11 193; Rotterdam, do , 11 19 to 11 193 ; 'Antwerp, do., 25 35 to 25 40; Brussels, do, 25 35 to 25 40; Hamburgh, do., 13 it to 13 8; Paris, short, 25 20 to 25 25; do., three months, 25 573 to 25 62; Marseilles, do.. 25 60 to 25 65 ; Frankfort, do., 119 i to 119 a ; Vienna, do., 10 30 to 10 33 ; Trieste, do , 10 31 to 10 34; St. Petersburg, do., 36: to 363; Madrid, 181 to 49. It is satisfactory to remark, that the recent extraordinarily heavy shipments of silver to the East have not prevented t!. - .e retention here of a great mass of newly imported gold. The imme diate pressure of the silver drain is at present materially mitigated, and it is estimated that the total remittances by the Indus, on the 4th inst, will not exceed 500,0001 to 600,0001. The last packet, it will be remembered, took 1,095,014/. The reason of this satisfactory change is a diminu tion in the orders from India to ship silver thither, consequent. probably, upon the paralysed state of trade in Indian exports. Meanwhile, the arrival of the steamer La Plata furnishes a large portion of the silver required for the following packet of the 20th inst., and the withdrawals of the metal from the Continent will be proportionately dimin ished. The steamer Ben\ iek has brought 48,500 half imperials, or about 38.8001, from St. Peters burgh. H.M.S. Trincomalee has also brought a quantity of specie and bullion (silver) from the Pacific. LIVERPOOL COTTON MARKET.— SFPT. 1. [The cotton market continues very steady, and the transactions are on a liberal scale. The sales—including 300 Egyptians 100 to 133 d, 2,000 Surats 51d to Gad—are estimated 10,000 bales, of which 3,000 are on speculation and for export. LIVERPOOL PRODUCE MARKET.-SEPT. 1.

We have a good attendance at this day's market, as well of country, as of local buyers, and upon an improved inquiry for wheat a fair extent of business has been done in the better classes of American at full prices, but at a concession on middling and inferior samples of Id to 2d per bushel from the currencies of this day week ; Baltic wheats are comparatively neglected ; the best, however, support.tbeir late value, but poor qualities, of which the bulk of supply consists, ctt , entirely withOUt demand, and nominally depressed 1-4 price.

It is the ti g ht packing 01 the intestines by these and other muscles that sustaT he sif spine and keep all th e i n t er i or organs i n place. .roir muscles becoming weak, the whole organism sinks l o ll' ward, sometim es m i sp l ac i ng t h e most i mportant and 0§,,, cate organs. O ne symp t om o f t hi s con di t i on is on chest, another is a fl a t ness or cav i ng i n , near th e pit °,OO stomach, with a consequent projecting at the lower i tb e of the abdomen, instead of the curve outward frol o oo breastbone to the lowest point of the body which is toes in a perfectly formed young child. Still another 5y0313 the is such a weakness of the back and stomach as make.a of child sit crooked. This is because the natural s l o p , tight packing and the strength of the supporting Enu tio ol 4 are gone. Another index of disease and decay in se i fori is curvature of the spine. When the spine is curve'oge ward it is shown by a projecting neck, or by a ef°.tle back, that no effort can straighten. If the curve is wise (lateral) it is shown by one shoulder or ont i olt being higher than the other, or by one shoe'der !Joe', being more prominent than the other. These detorl o ter indicate the decay and debility which sooner O r r oi t t bring on disease of various kinds. Teachers in oil o r! schools say these marks of weakness and d e l o rnaits r e t o constantly increasing, and that the longer the purli l6 n s of; school the more these indications increase ; that is ` . ." A they are found more in the upper d e p ar t me nts than inkO primary. Parents and guardians of our city schools, yon not look into this matter ?-IVetu York Tribune.
