LIVERPOOL FINANCIAL REFORM

ASSOCIATION

IMPLIMACY NOT A FINANCIAL QUESTION.

The council hag bad under considetatiOn art attacT
ipon the Association, made by the editor of a London

weekly paper, on the supposition that its prOtest against
secret diplomacy implies an opinion that all negotiations
whatever should be patent to all the world, at every step
of their progress, from first to last. The council never

proposed or droamt of anything so absurd. What it did,
and does, protest against, is the system under which
ambassadors and other diplomatic perSoriageS abroad,

acting in conjunction with ihiriist.

Ts at home, frame and

Conclude treaties, offensive and defensive, with foreign
nations, of which treaties, or at !cast of their stipulations,
the people and parliament of this country are not
allowed to know anything until, according 'o the modern
ministerial theory, both are irrevocably bound in honour
to abide by their conditions. It was held that, how-
ever secret the negociations, up to a certain point, no
treaty should be considered valid or binding until all its
provisions have received the assent of the nation, through
its representatives in parliament assembled ; that the
crown has no right to bind the nation without such
assent; and that the assumption of such right is a modern
Usurpation.

With reference to the further objection, that diplo.
macy, whether secret or open, is a matter quite foreign
to the province of a Financial ReforM AsSoclation, it
was observed that inastthich a§ diplomacy makes treaties,
whilst treaties often involve wars, and wars are very
expensive, diplomacy is, in fact, a very financial sort of
thing, t.) say nothing of the very large sums spent on
the persons employed in it, or of the very inadequate
and often worse than useless services which they render
in return. A strong opinion was expressed, that the
whole system of resident ambassadors and ministers,
Which has never produced any good at all compar-
able with the evils it has occasioned, should be
abolished ; that the ordinary communications between
governments might very well be transacted by post or
telegraph ; and that, for extraordinary occasions, special
ministers, or delegates, chosen only for their special
aptness and qualifications for the business in hand, miOt
be employed. The parallel recently drawn, by an
American paper, between the famous Bear of Berne and
the diplomatic Bull at Washington, was considered
strikingly apropos; for, just, as the people of Berne dis-
covered, quite accidentally, that their canton could
exist and prosper without constantly maintaining a
living bear as its palladium, so the people of America
and Great Britain have found out, to their great sur-
prise, that they can transact their business quite as well
without a resident minister at Washington as with one,
and get on much mere comfortably into the bargain.

I COLLISION OF THE FALCON & IMOGENE

TO THE EDITOR OF THE NORTHERN TIMES

Sir,—lt is not my wish to discuss the merits of this
nnforttinate collision - no one can regret it more than I

do; but, when the proper time arrives, / hop,t to prove
that the fault lay with the sailing vessel, and not with
the sterner, There are, however, some passages in the
letter of William Jenkin, in your paper of this morning,
Which of necessity call for a reply from me, because
they are untrue, and are calculated to raise a prejudice
against the Falcon and myself. It is untrue that I stood on
for fully two niiies before the speed was slacked or the ves
gel rounded to. She was rounded to as quickly as possible,
and I ranged up alongside the Imogene, and asked if she
was "all right." The reply was, that her foreholid was
but she was built in compartments, and all was right,
and that I could tow her to Liverpool. I then got a
boat out, and sent her to the vessel. Having been thus

informed that there was no danger to the ship, I secured
my own vessel, which had been damaged on the star-
bDard side, near the water's edge, and I had to stop the
holes with blankets and tallow. I had also to put my
vessel before the wind, expecting every moment that niy
foremast would go, but I kept as near the ship as I could.
As soon as I saw signals froM the Imogene, I again

am:it-niched her, so Close, indeed, that my paisetigers
were alarmed. I was than told that she was sinkiri4,
and immediately afterwards, her boats came alongside,

my biat having again been alongside of her ready to
render assistance if necessary. Ido not believe that any
of the Imogene's boats Were stove alongside the
Falcon, and I think that Mr. Jenkin's imagination has
been at work, when he says " that Captain Willi iins
requested me not to drown his men before his eyes.''
Nothing of the kind was said to me, as I did all in my
power to save them. I mal:e due allowance to Mr.
Jenkin for the ex2itement which such a scene produced
upon him ; indeed, all were greatly excited; but I doubt
if Captain Williams or any seaman would bring any
accusation against me of want or humanity ; and all I
ask is, that the same allowance which I make to Mr.
Jenkin should be accorded to me, seeing that I did not
know but that my own ship might be in danger df
sinking, and I had 165 passengers under my care. to
regard to the charging for refreshments, the enclosed
letter from the steward is a complete answer to Mr.
Jenkin's statements, and the enclosure No. 2 will show
you that my own passengers do not accuse me of
unseamanlike conduct.—l am. sir, yours resprctfnlly,
WILT.IAM JOHN HYNES,
Master of S.S. Falcon.

TO CAPTAIN HYNES.
Sir,—l beg to deny the statements of William Jenkin,
which appear in the NORTHERN DAILY TIMES of this
morning. The facts are as follows :—Early in the niorti-
ing four of the passengers applied for and received each
a glass of brandy, for which I made no charge. I also asked
Captain Williams if he Would take any wine or spirits,
and he replied that he had not tasted any for fourteen
years. He afterwards told me to supply his passengers
with breakfast, for which he said he would pay. When
you bad time to attend to me, you told me I was not to
make any charge; and accordingly, between six and
seven in the morning, the passengers were supplied by
me in the first cabin (to which they had free entrance
all the time they were on board) with hot coffee and
bread and butter as much as they required, and they
told me they would do very well until they got to Liver-
pool. I asked Captain Williams if he wont.] not breakfast
with our cabin passengers, but be declined. Afterwards
he took breakfast by himself. The mate and steward
had their breakfast with me in the pantry, and they were
each twice supplied with spirits, and nothing whatever
was named, as to pay, either by them or ire. The crew
passengers,

spirits, and I then consitlered that I was doing right to
charge them, as I believed they were tie same four to
whom I had previously given spirits ; but, of course,
with men whom I never saw before, I cannot
be certain as to this. I believe that each of these
four men had four glasses of spirits during the
morning. I made no charge, and rec-ived no money,
from either Capt. Williams, his crew, or the passengers,
except for the extra glasses of spirits from the four
passengers.—l am, sir, your obedient servant,
GEORGE TILLETT,
Steward of the S.S, Falcon.
P.S.—Since the above was wri:ten, Captain Williams
has been on board the Falcon, and has valuntarily given
me a gratuity for my attention to himself, his crew, and
passengers. This, I think, is a sufficient proof that they
were well treated on board the Falcon. G.

We. the undersigned, cabin passengers by the Falcon
steamship, Captain Hynes, witnessing his cool and
seamanlike conduct after the unfortunate collision
with the Imogene, Captain Williams, desire to bear
this oar testimony to the skill and anxiety he evinced
in rendering to the passengers of both ships every
assistance in his power, end also to his exertions to
save the property, if possible :

LIVERPOOL POLICE INTELLIGENCE

(BEFORE MR. J. AIKEN.)
BREAKING WlNnow&—Two ruffians, named George
Fairelough and William Cosgrave. were charged with
breaking the windows and doors of the house of Mrs
Fairelough, residing in Gildart's-gardens. It appeared
that the prisoners, without any provocation, went to the
door of cotnplaistant's house, broke it, and several
squares of glass. They were fined 15s each.
No UsE IN KNOCKING.—A young man, named Daniel
Murphy, was charged with having assaulted police con-
stable 95. It appeared that the prisoner went to the
door of the Adelphi Theatre in a state of intoxication.
and wanted to enter the house. The 'officer refused to
let him in, when he commenced a furious knocking at
the door. The officer told him there was "no use knock-
ing at the door down there," when the prisoner said
there is some use in knocking you " down there," and,
suiting the action to the word, he " tumbled" him. He
was fined 10s.

A SATAGR —George. Smith, a rather well dressed young
man, was charged with maliciously stabbing a donkey,
in Vauxhall-road, on Sunday afternoon. A little lad,
who was minding the donkey at the time, said the
prisoner and two other men were passing. The
prisoner attempted to ride the donkey for sport. Failing
in this, he pulled out a knife, and stabbed the poor
animal once at the back part, and once in the fore part.
The wounds were not very serious; but they had to be
sewn up, and the donkey could not work for some days.
The men laughed while the prisoner was doing this.
Police officer 704, said, from the statements of the boy,
he apprehended the prisoner on Banastre-street bridge.
The prisoner strongly declared he was not the man, but,
subsequently, it was proved beyond all doubt, that he was
the person who committed the outrage. The officer,
however, said the prisoner had made compensation to
the owner of the ass, and he would not now appear to
prosecute. His Worship said, the prisoner was a great
savage, and he would fine him lOs and costs, and if the
prosecutor had appeared the punishment would have
been much more severe.

MORE FINES ON MR. DOHERTY.—Mr. John Doherty,
corn merchant, was again summoned before his Worship,
yesterday, for infringing the dock laws, by laying corn
down longer than allowed. The amount of fines
inficted on the defendant was £43 and costs.

(BEFORE. MR. T. BOLTON.)
A " LUMINARY." —A young fellow, having the appear-
ance of a sailor, who gave his name as James•Nish, was
charged with having stolen a lamp belonging to the
corporation. It appeared that a trench was being made
in Simpson-street, for the water works, and that lamps
were placed at each end to prevent accident, and the
watchman was so vigilant, that the prisoner walked off
with the lamp, as he stated, to light him home, and
what attracted the attention of the officer was the zig-
zag. motion of the prisoner with the lamp, which he at
first supposed to be the tail of the coming comet ! It
seemed, however, that it was a " spree" on the part of
the prisoner, and be was fined 2s. 6d.
CAUTION TO PAWNBROKERS.—Two females (sisters),
named Jane Gerrard and Eliza Pearson, were charged
with stealing nine unfinished pairs of trousers, which
h,ad been given to them to make by a woman named
Ellen Baines. It appeared that on Saturday evening the
property, consisting of twelve pair of unfinished trousers,
was given to the prisoners —some of the articles were
pledged at Mr. Syred's, Park-lane, and some at Mr.
Bolton's, 13ridgewater.street ; more were sold to brokers
for eightpence and tenpence a pair. The pawn tickets
were found on the prisoner Gerrard. The evidence
against the prisoner Pearson was not deemed sufficient,
and she was discharged. The other prisoner was sent to
gaol for one month. Mr. Clough said it was highly
improper on the part of the pawnbrokers to take into
pledge unfinished goods, which,
they must well know,
had been improperly come by. It was against the law
and the tenor of the pawnbrokers' license to take
unfinished goods into pledge. Mr. Bolton: Then the
property must be returned without any payment. A
young man from Mr. Syred's said the prisoner stated the
property was her own. Mr. Bolton : Sir, you must well
know that she could not get the property honestly, and
you must suffer the loss of your advance on the goods.
I trust it will warn you in future.

showing an increase of 27,233,218 dole, or over
30 per cent. The value of foreign merchandise and
specie imported in the same period was 17,183,327 dole.
against 12,923,608 dols last "ear; showing an increase of
5,259,719 dole, or about 37 per cent. Of the value of the
hundreds of cargoes of domestic and foreign merchandise

there should be by requitement of law), but we estimate
that the Value of property, including produce, merchandise
and vessels that have patted the tncuth of the Mississippi
river inward and outward, during the Pant /earl probably
exceeds two hundred and fifty million of dollar;. The
operation of the Branch mint during the past year show a
further slight decrease in the deposits, but an increase in
the coinage. The tot:a deposits of gold and silver for the
year ending 31st July, were 2,720,032 dole against
2 938,260 dols the year previous; showing a decreese of
218,238 do's. The coinage during the same time has been,
of gold, 67,350 pieces, of the value of .525,500 dole, and of
silver, 8,364,000 pieces, of the value of 2,936,000 dols.
Total value 3,461,500 dols, or an increase of 1,255,240 dols.
" With respect to the i'thket prospects of the coming crops,
and the interests of trade generally, attn Conceive that the
promise is in a high degree flattering. Peace again prevails
throughout the leading nations of the world, and commerce
and the arts have asserted their ascendlney In questions of
threatening aspect. Of the crops, those of wheat and
Indian corn are known to be unusually abundant, and cotton
thus far gives fair promise ; but the sugar production must
inevitably fall to a very low figure, while that of tobacco
will be materially less than the crop of last year. With
money unusually abundant, and readily obtainable fir all
legitimate purposes, all these crops are likely to meet with
a ready market, at remunerating prices, and the cost of
transportation to other markets will probably range below
the average of last year, as a large amount of tonnage will
be relieved from the employment of the Allies."

it may be in souse degree (possibly a very important one)
